Chapter 107: Chapter 102: Exploration (Congratulations to Alliance Hierarch Ye Xun)

Qinglin Square.

Deep into the night.

A Second Rank Ink Jade Python, tens of meters long, had taken the place of the Golden Feathered Vulture and now coiled on top of the Spirit Vein, raising its thick snake head to the moon, exhaling and inhaling purple-black miasma.

Hiss!

In the terrifying hiss of the serpent, strands of Moonlight Power fell, ceaselessly forging its physique and bloodline, pushing it towards a higher level.

At the same time, a layer of pitch-black venomous fog spread out from the Demon Beast, slowly encroaching upon the surroundings of the square.

This was a Second Rank potent poison, capable of corroding the Earth’s veins and even transforming the environment!

If this area continued to be dominated by the Ink Jade Python, in a few decades or centuries, it might turn into a land of deadly poison.

Outside the square, on an ancient cypress tree, a seemingly lifeless yellow sparrow cocked its head, watching the scene unfold.

Suddenly!

A hand appeared out of thin air, grasping the yellow sparrow: "Eh? This creature is rather cleverly made..."

The hand was as thin as firewood, yet firm as iron tongs, preventing the sparrow from moving at all.

Boom!

The sparrow suddenly burst into flames, activating a pre-set self-destruct mechanism.

"Uh?"

The hand showed no signs of injury, not even a smudge.

The owner of the hand was an old Daoist in a black robe, bright-eyed but short and emaciated, with distinct facial features and a goatee, wearing a black Daoist robe with a simple ebony hairpin on his head.

"Interestingly, there was no mana fluctuation, allowing the old Daoist to overlook it temporarily!"

The gaunt old Daoist nodded and collected the remnants of the self-destructed sparrow, turning into a streak of light that reached the Nine Heavens in an instant!

In the high skies, the Gang winds were piercing.

But none of these could cause his Daoist robe to flutter even slightly.

The old Daoist waited for a moment, and soon two more streaks of light came to join him.

One was as beautiful as a peach blossom, with a head full of silver hair, the Supreme Elder of the Qingxuan Sect—Nie Feifeng!

The other was a burly man dressed in animal skins, covered in various Demon Beast tattoos, exuding a daunting aura.

"Wu, why are you so slow? Has there been a change in the square?"

Nie Feifeng, seeing the black-robed old Daoist, immediately began to inquire.

"There has been no change, just encountered a very interesting puppet which delayed me a bit... This puppet had not the slightest mana fluctuation, had I not used my Divine Sense to investigate the square thoroughly beforehand, possibly might have missed it... It even contained a self-destruct device, which I failed to detect..."

Old Daoist Wu stroked his goatee beard, looking somewhat surprised: "It seems, Nie, your establishment of the square is like building a phoenix nest, attracting extraordinary Puppet Masters."

"Wu, you flatter me. At times like these, there are probably very few Loose Cultivators left in the square."

Nie Feifeng spoke indifferently, "I am rather more interested in that Second Rank Top Grade Ink Jade Python... It absorbs lunar energy to refine its demonic energy and must have already formed a Demon Core. This Ink Jade Python is remarkable and might even possess a trace of Flood Dragon Bloodline. If its inner core was consumed by your spiritual pet, it could probably advance a small realm."

Before she finished speaking, the burly man’s expression twitched, and he touched his Spirit Beast Bag at his waist.

He was the Supreme Elder of the Myriad Beasts Sect, adept at raising various spiritual pets.

Among them was a ’Horned Bright Snake’ with Flood Dragon lineage, with rather good bloodline grade, currently a mere Low Rank Second Grade.

If he could obtain the inner core of this similar species, it might indeed enable an advance by a minor grade.

But at the moment, his expression remained unchanged: "Our primary goal this trip is the Wanfa Secret Realm... My spiritual pets are trivial matters."

"Lian, you are too modest. We all know each other too well... If your ’Horned Bright Snake’ advances to Mid-grade Second Rank, it surely will be powerful enough to assist in casting that Secret Technique Divine Power?"

Old Daoist Wu chuckled, "Myriad Beasts Sect’s Divine Skills are renowned far and wide, that ’Soul Attachment Technique’ especially—the purer the Dragon Bloodline, the more astonishing the power... Coupled with your cultivation, it might well pose a threat even to Core Formation mid to late stage Cultivators, right?"

"Not at all... Old Ghost Wu, shouldn’t you be tending to your Black Sky Temple instead of snooping around our Sect’s secret techniques?"

Cultivator Lian’s face showed no emotion, and his tattoos seemed to come alive, faintly echoing with the roaring of myriad beasts.

Old Daoist Wu hurriedly waved his hands: "Brother Lian, do not unleash your power; this old body of mine can’t withstand your Divine Skills... I’m merely concerned. If we recklessly slaughter this Second Rank Top Grade Demon Beast here, it might provoke a Third Rank Demon Beast or even a beast tide like last time? If that happens, the loss outweighs the gain... After all, the three of us are here alone, facing grave dangers..."
