Chapter 463: Chapter 296: Fight for Life_2
With a thunderous roar, the black mist exploded, enveloping the surroundings and blocking out the sky and sun...
A mass of white bones shot out.
It actually self-destructed.
The cultivator on the flying ship rushed forward at full speed, forming a seal with his hands, completing a spell along the way.
It was naturally an attack, ready to be unleashed at any moment.
At that moment, somewhat stunned, there was no time to switch to defense, so it was directly cast.
Simultaneously, a flying sword shot out.
This was a top-grade talisman flying sword.
There was no other way. Aside from those passed down in the family, it takes too long for an average cultivator to nurture a magical artifact.
Unless one is an old veteran, there would be no magical artifact available.
Attack spells and the flying sword were not well-suited for blocking.
They merely eliminated a portion of the incoming bones.
Especially the flying sword, it barely managed to protect the person.
Crackling and snapping.
Lights flickered on the flying ship, pierced by several bones, causing this individual great heartache.
This wasn’t his to begin with.
This person was quite commendable, taking care of, the Qi cultivators behind were mostly unharmed, with only a few unluckily injured.
A talisman shot out, it was a demon-exorcising talisman.
Aimed at demonic qi.
Causing the rolling black mist to rapidly dissipate under the talisman’s light.
After checking, his face changed.
He wasn’t dead after all.
He escaped?
Damn it.
Indeed.
Ten Thousand Sceneries escaped.
After the divine demon transformation bone demon body exploded, he fled.
A strong survival instinct made him suppress his instincts, restraining the traces of true intent from the demon ape, and self-destructed.
The main body relied on devouring the essence of the Foundation Establishment cultivator to survive.
Otherwise, the consumption from the demon god transformation would have been fatal.
Even so, he was extremely weak.
Then, with demonic qi whistling, he fled the battlefield.
Over here, the new body possessed by the Small Knife, under the control of the knife, also dodged ahead of time, avoiding injury despite the disarray.
"Find him, find the demon for me."
He wouldn’t have escaped far.
Definitely severely injured.
Once discovered, send a signal.
Remember, even if severely injured, it’s not someone you can handle.
...!
Soon, another Foundation Establishment cultivator arrived.
A cultivator with dual spirit roots and Qi cultivation perfection, named Zhao Wushuang.
The name sounded impressive, but with his current strength, he dared not even visit his original parents; the last visit was seven years ago.
Yet at this moment, he stood with a complex expression in front of a large tree.
Before him lay the unconscious demonic cultivator.
In his unconscious state, a single strike could kill him; at that time, a precious Foundation Establishment Pill could be obtained, worth fifty thousand spirit stones.
At Qi cultivation great perfection, without selling himself or encountering fortune, he’d find it hard to earn such an amount in a lifetime.
Now it was within arm’s reach.
Unfortunately, he couldn’t make the call.
Because according to the agreement, the body was now under Small Knife’s control.
At this moment, Ten Thousand Sceneries looked old and with gray hair, like a farmer in his fifties or sixties, with wrinkles on his forehead.
He was heavily injured; even with a blood sacrifice, he could recover, but the lost lifespan would be hard to replenish.
This was the price of the demon dao, exceeding the limits of one’s endurance.
And this was him, with a firm will, managing to break free from the divine demon transformation.
In a way, it’s fate, even if I do not agree with your demon dao practices, you are still an acquaintance. I’ll help you one last time.
Small Knife directly fed him a mouthful of spirit liquid.
A whole mouthful.
Zhao Wushuang gasped, sniffing the air.
Accompanied spirit liquid?
Seen before in the Zhao Family, this rare item was counted by drop, costing over a thousand spirit stones each.
A single droplet could restore all spiritual power below the Foundation Establishment.
Of course, generally, it wouldn’t be used so lavishly and would be saved for alchemy and the like.
Even with his experience, downing a single mouthful would cost at least nearly ten thousand spirit stones?
That’s a conservative estimate.
Thus, Ten Thousand Sceneries quickly opened his eyes.
Astonished immediately.
"Don’t worry, it’s me."
You?
...!
A hole was dug underground.
Ten Thousand Sceneries hid here, using the Concealing Breath Skill, adding a simple hidden array.
His expression was complex, somewhat worried and indecisive.
But eventually, he made a choice and swore an oath.
So Small Knife left.
Zhao Wushuang was also somewhat excited, unable to contain himself, a Demon Bone could actually be a Great Power’s reincarnation?
The reason for abandoning the previous path is that the other party wantonly slaughtered the innocent?
This is definitely a big shot of the Righteous Dao.
There’s an eighty percent chance it won’t involve a takeover or anything like that.
No matter what, it’s worth taking a gamble. This is a leg to hold on to.
Blood sacrifice isn’t good.
Blood extraction doesn’t matter.
As long as the quantity is sufficient.
Small Knife pondered, but currently, things are also unstable in the Water Blue Star Mini World.
Now the Five Elements Sword Control Sect has fully taken control again.
They are searching for the invading evil demons.
Fortunately, the players have not been discovered.
They were born in the Water Blue Star Mini World and all possess the aura of this world’s birth.
But even so, everyone has become honest and proper.
Clearly, it’s because of the tasks; if exposed or leaked, the punishment wouldn’t be light.
With Small Knife’s help in concealing.
The demons were not discovered.
Zhao Wushuang returned.
Returning to the town, this is Zhao Family Town.
It’s also the base of the Zhao Family.
The Zhao Family owns the town, and the territory of thirteen surrounding villages.
The Zhao Family has as many as seven Foundation Establishment cultivators, one of whom is at Foundation Establishment Great Perfection.
The family’s inheritance has lasted over a thousand years.
They once achieved great merit, and their cultivation technique can be passed down for generations, capable of cultivating to the Golden Core.
This is the foundation of a family.
Zhao Wushuang was born in one of the villages belonging to the Zhao Family and was lured into signing a contract after his spirit root was detected.
Because he was young, the contract wasn’t strongly binding.
But he didn’t dare to escape either.
By signing the contract, he only obtained a cultivation technique that allows him to cultivate to Qi Cultivation Great Perfection.
This was bought for him by the Zhao Family because he was not of Zhao Family blood and couldn’t cultivate the Zhao Family’s cultivation technique.
At that time, he didn’t know.
"It’s good to be alive." Zhao Wushuang returned alive to Zhao Family Town.
"Brother Zhao has returned." The Zhao Family members he encountered were very enthusiastic.
"Brother Zhao, my third sister is worried about you, the girl is shy, you should go and see her."
Along the way, Zhao Wushuang seemed very prestigious and seemed to be very popular.
...!
Unfortunately, Zhao Wushuang is no longer a child, and aside from the superficial enthusiasm, he hasn’t received any other support except for the widely available cultivation technique for Qi Cultivation Great Perfection.
It seems that cottages, food, clothing, and monthly stipend were all arranged, but tasks were also plentiful.
If calculated, the income from these tasks has already far exceeded the contribution.
Soon, there were girls coming to visit and show concern.
They were quite pretty.
With much difficulty, after seeing them off, Zhao Wushuang sighed in relief.
"So hypocritical."
There’s no choice.
If the Zhao Family were to marry a girl with spirit roots to him, it would be fine, but they were all without spirit roots.
Zhao Family Town is the base of the Zhao Family, covered by an array.
The range is vast, with large spirit fields covered within, but most are fallow.
The entire Zhao Family Town is such an important place, yet the spiritual energy is thin, making Small Knife quite curious.
Upon a little investigation, Small Knife discovered that although Zhao Wushuang appeared young, he was not of young age, nearly a hundred years old. These years are the best Foundation Establishment period, and if missed, the success rate of Foundation Establishment will greatly decrease.
So he is under a lot of pressure.
Two Spirit Roots, cultivating for such a long time, naturally related to the thinness of the spiritual energy here.
He hadn’t paid much attention, but now that Small Knife noticed it, apart from the Demon Heaven outside, this outside world is sparser in spiritual energy than the Water Blue Star Mini World, which was completely unexpected for him.
It’s rather incredible.
This flourishing cultivation world, how could it be so vast yet sparsely populated, with thin spiritual energy?
Too unbelievable.
Zhao Wushuang went to the spirit field he was responsible for.
Upon entering, the spiritual energy became a bit richer.
Spirit Gathering Array?
Spirit Separation Array?
Zhao Wushuang cast spells, using Golden Needle Pest Control, weeding.
The final step was the Spirit Rain Skill.
A Qi Cultivation level spell.
Water in the large vat, under the control of the spell, fell sparsely to irrigate this acre of spirit field.
What is planted is a First Realm spirit rice, which is quite an ordinary purple corn.
There’s no choice, even with arrays here, the spiritual energy is just a bit richer. If not for this water containing spiritual energy, and the fertilizers, one couldn’t even dream of planting grade-level crops.
Now being able to plant at a grade level shows how advanced the agricultural technology of this world is.
The spiritual energy here is denser than the outside, relying on the Spirit Gathering Array.
The large water vat also has a Spirit Gathering Array drawn on it.
Array within array, relying on the Spirit Gathering Array of the spirit field, the spiritual energy here is denser; the water vat then gathers more spirit, naturally making the effect more pronounced.
The water in this vat has been gathering spirit for five years to reach this level of richness.
