Spiritual Energy Rejuvenation: I Began Cultivating By Farming
Chapter 55 - 55 55 Soul

55: Chapter 55 Soul 55: Chapter 55 Soul “Now that we have avenged Brother Jiang Tang, it’s time for us to leave.

If we stay too long, I fear stronger people will come to investigate.

It’s better to be careful.

Do you have any other matters to take care of?

If so, finish them as soon as possible,” Su Chang’an felt that this place was not safe to linger in.

Such is the world of cultivation.

Whenever a battle takes place, there will inevitably be those who come to pick up the spoils, investigate to sell information, or even to kill and seize treasures.

Battles generally arise over treasures, but acts of revenge cannot be ruled out.

However, once the battle is over and the battlefield cleaned, it’s best to leave quickly, unless you’re confident enough to kill any who pursue you.

Having killed that group of people just now, he didn’t know if they had stronger backers, but less trouble is always better than more.

Although confident that even if there were stronger opponents, they wouldn’t dare to provoke him rashly since he was the Young Master of the Sword Sect.

Anyone daring to do so would have to consider whether they could withstand the wrath of the Sword Sect.

“Master Su, I have nothing else to attend to…”

Yan Weiwei said with a sad tilt of her head.

“I don’t have anything else either…”

Cai Xiangxiang’s head drooped even lower as she cried.

“Let’s go…”

With a flick of his hand, Su Chang’an struck the flying ship with spiritual power, and it swiftly took off.

Many birds flew across the sky, all veering away from the ship.

A battle had taken place here, and because it was distant and high in the sky, people from afar only saw flashes of light and assumed it was some powerful being fighting or crossing a tribulation.

The weak dared not approach, left only to speculate what could cause powerful beings to fight here?

“Let’s go inside the cabin…”

It was Yan Weiwei speaking to Cai Xiangxiang.

“Okay, thank you, Lady Yan.”

Cai Xiangxiang followed obediently.

Su Chang’an watched the two women enter the cabin, hoping that this person wouldn’t cause him trouble in the future.

…

An Elder at the Core Formation Realm of the Mount Tai Sect was meditating when suddenly one of his magical treasures, a spirit bell, began to ring incessantly.

He had all his disciples drop blood on it when they started their discipleship.

If a disciple died, the spirit bell would sound.

The Elder’s face changed color.

The six or seven disciples he had sent out, though not the highest in cultivation among all his disciples, included a Clan Descendant who had always provided him with spirit stones for cultivation.

“Damn it, which blind fool did this?

Who killed all my disciples?

Watch me take care of you!”

The Elder had assumed that his disciples, who were out on a training mission, might be killed by someone below Foundation Establishment, out of greed for their treasures.

He was well aware that Huang Chen and his fellow disciples were carrying many magical treasures and talismans – how could they be so easily killed?

It must have been the work of a large group, seeking to kill and rob his disciples.

So, he took out a Soul Calling Mirror and summoned the souls of his slain disciples.

Inside the Soul Calling Mirror, the souls of six dead disciples appeared, including Huang Chen, but the soul of one female disciple was missing.

He cast spiritual power into the mirror, allowing the souls within to speak as if they were standing there as real people.

“Master, I have finally seen you again…”

“Master, help us take revenge…”

“Master, we must take revenge and capture the traitor Cai Xiangxiang.”

Hearing the overlapping voices of his disciples, the Core Formation Elder was confused and couldn’t make out the reason for their deaths.

“Speak one at a time, and make it clear.

Who are the bastards that killed you?

Don’t all talk at once, answer one by one,” he commanded.

Huang Chen, full of resentment, said to his master, “We were killed by Su Chang’an.

Cai Xiangxiang betrayed us, that wench.

When she returns, Master, you must help us take revenge.”

“Su Chang’an?

Master Su of the Su Clan?

How did you offend him?

With a Great Perfection of Nascent Soul cultivation, what was he doing in Liusha Sea City for training?”

“He said he had a friend Jiang Tang who was killed by us.

He thought he could seize the treasures, but little did he know he couldn’t, and we denied killing Jiang Tang.

We never expected that Cai Xiangxiang, that wench, would betray us.”

“What?

Su Chang’an killed you, and it was your junior sister who turned you in.

No wonder she didn’t die…”

The Core Formation Realm Elder was in a dilemma, how could he with his cultivation assist his disciple in seeking revenge?

Even if his cultivation was a bit higher, they were up against the Young Master of the Sword Sect, and his own insignificant Mount Tai Sect was nowhere near a match for them—it was like an egg crashing against a rock!

It felt like he was bound to suffer in silence!

But there was nothing to be done.

Cai Xiangxiang was quite clever, sacrificing her fellow disciples to save herself from death.

If she were safe, she would certainly not come back, knowing that if she did, I would definitely not let her off the hook.

After all, she betrayed her own sect brothers and sisters, and regardless of her reasons, she could not be allowed to live.

What a pity for such a clever woman.

I had originally planned to wait until her cultivation was higher to make her my cauldron, boosting my own cultivation, but I missed the chance.

If the Young Master of the Sword Sect took her away, then there’s certainly no opportunity left.

If it wasn’t him?

Then there might still be a chance.

What a pity for a woman with pure Yin energy.

Let’s see if there’s still a way, sigh, finding another and cultivating her, who knows how long that will take, maybe there won’t even be time.

The desire in the Core Formation Realm Elder’s eyes was evident to Huang Chen.

He had always suspected his master, but now his suspicions were confirmed—his master had ill intentions, but that despicable woman was no better.

“Master, if you don’t seek revenge for me, then tell the family to cut off the spirit stone supply to your sect.”

“Disciple, a gentleman can wait ten years for revenge.

You also see that my cultivation is not high, and our Mount Tai Sect cannot compete with the Sword Sect.

Forget about seeking revenge, we would be extinguished in minutes, just like stepping on an ant.”

“Hmph, you speak so nicely, yet you still don’t want to seek revenge for us…”

Huang Chen looked at his master in despair, hoping that the members of his family would know of the danger and help him take revenge.

But how could anyone in his family dare to clash head on with the Sword Sect?

Even if they dared, the entire family would be annihilated, making the loss even greater.

The look of despair on Huang Chen’s face caused his junior disciples to also fall into despair.

If he could not persuade Master to avenge them, they were even less capable, and now they could only await death.

“Disciple, don’t lose heart.

Master, I have a magical treasure that can take you to a place where, if you successfully cultivate there, you can follow the Path of Cultivation to become an Immortal and then seek revenge however you wish…”

Huang Chen was dubious upon hearing his master’s words, yet he clung to a sliver of hope.

His hatred compelled him to grow stronger, so if there was another method of cultivation, it just might be worth a try…

“Master, are you talking about becoming a Ghost Cultivator in order to cultivate to Immortality and achieve revenge…?”

“Yes, there are many different types of cultivation in this world, including that of Ghost Cultivators.

Once a Ghost Cultivator reaches the Mahayana Realm, they too can ascend to Immortality.”

“Master, why haven’t I heard about this before?

Is this method of cultivation quick?

Is it faster than regular cultivation?

Anyway, I’m already a ghost of sorts, it can’t be worse than it is now.

I’ll start cultivating.

If I don’t cultivate, there will be no more chances.

I must take revenge, I absolutely must.

I am so angry, I must kill Su Chang’an, aaaaagh!” The howling of Huang Chen’s ghostly soul at that time was especially harrowing.

The Core Formation Realm Elder started at the outburst, chastised him, and after collecting himself, slowly said:

“Because that is a legend that no one dares to try.

However, today, for the disciples, Master used a magical treasure found on an ancient battlefield, one that still possesses a trace of spiritual energy.

This magical treasure is called Hell Palace and will summon you all to cultivate within.

Whether or not you can ascend depends on your efforts.

As for its speed, I am not quite certain; I can only find out after you have cultivated.

I have never heard about this treasure before.”

“Master, you wouldn’t deceive us, would you?

We are all in this state; Master, you must help us.”

Huang Chen’s words prompted nods from his junior Bbrothers they too had never heard their master speak of this before.

If Master wasn’t deceiving them, then he must have been hiding many magical treasures.

They felt regretful, wondering why they hadn’t demanded treasures from their master before.

If they had more treasures on them, they wouldn’t have been killed so easily today, and they might have had a chance to turn things around.

“Why would I deceive you?

Huang Chen, in light of your continued respect for Master, I will perform a ritual for 49 days and then send you all to that place.”

“Thank you, Master…”

Huang Chen and his junior disciples’ souls knelt before the soul-summoning mirror, and when they raised their heads again, the hatred in their eyes twisted their souls even more.

…

The Huang Family was a well-known clan in Immortal Lord City.

Their greatest resource was their spirit stone mine, and the clan also had elders skilled in Talisman Making and Artifact Refining, capable of creating magical treasures; they only lacked in Alchemy.

The clan’s young elite, Lai Jianlin, was encouraged to join various sects as disciples, in hopes that the cultivation techniques they learned in each sect could later be brought back and imparted to the clan.

“Family Head, terrible news!

The jade token of Young Master Huang Chen has shattered…”

A disciple guarding the ancestral hall rushed into the courtyard of the Family Head, shouting loudly.

Besides dealing with affairs, the Family Head would also cultivate in a room in the courtyard.

He had a partner, and his age was around fifty or sixty, with a cultivation at the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment.

“What?

Speak clearly…”

The Family Head was cultivating when he heard someone break in to report; Huang Chen was one of their elite, and also his own grandson.

“Family Head, the jade token of Huang Chen has shattered.”

The disciple watching the ancestral hall knelt down and repeated.

“Nonsense, my grandson is well at the Mount Tai Sect, how could his jade token be shattered… Damn it…”

The Family Head quickly headed towards the ancestral hall.
