The Golden Elixir is A Star, and You Call This Cultivation?
Chapter 1179 - 511

Chapter 1179: Chapter 511

The burly man named Feng Tie was an Earth-level Army Commander at his peak.

He was acquainted with the Grandmaster Hengshan, a notorious flower thief; the two had once explored a secret realm together.

Within that realm, fraught with difficulties, several Earth-level Army Commanders perished.

Only he and Grandmaster Hengshan managed to escape.

Thus, he learned Grandmaster Hengshan’s greatest secret.

Grandmaster Hengshan had received an inheritance from a visitor from beyond the skies and, emulating Thornblood, modified Strange Spirits, eventually merging with them to gain a bizarre power.

Illusion Technique!

The main reason Grandmaster Hengshan became a widespread scourge, renowned and yet never caught, was precisely because he mastered an Illusion Technique.

He always walked away with impunity.

This secret was probably known only to Feng Tie.

Therefore, unlike the other Earth-level Army Commanders who were watching the Shen Family stronghold, Feng Tie would take notice even if a cat walked out.

The chameleon that Chen Kangbao had transformed into would be ignored by other Earth-level Army Commanders if not given special attention.

But not Feng Tie.

He watched the chameleon with a smile in his eyes.

"Grandmaster Hengshan, what’s this, afraid I’ll share in the spoils?"

Chen Kangbao, holding a kitchen knife, was flustered; he stood still, very hesitant.

Motionless.

The burly man in front of him put great pressure on him.

Seeing the chameleon unmoving, Feng Tie’s smile widened, "Could it be that Grandmaster Hengshan wants to monopolize the Profound Yin body?"

Being famed for his bizarre Illusion Technique was the main reason why Grandmaster Hengshan was deemed a grandmaster.

But once it was known, Hengshan’s combat power would drastically decrease.

If Hengshan considered Feng Tie an adversary, why would he let Feng Tie, who knew his greatest secret, live?

"You’ve mistaken me for someone else; I am not Grandmaster Hengshan," said Chen Kangbao at this moment without disguise, his figure turning into an elderly man with a hoarse voice.

If he didn’t respond, given Feng Tie’s disposition, he probably wouldn’t let this chameleon live.

"Who are you... and you also understand the Illusion Technique?" Feng Tie was surprised, his face showing a hint of wariness.

If the other party was Grandmaster Hengshan, it would be bold to admit it outright; there was no need for such roundabout answers.

"There seems to be no such person in Ning Country... nor in Mosha Country..."

"I am just passing through; may I leave?" Chen Kangbao made a tentative request.

"Leave the item behind," Feng Tie said coldly, looking at the kitchen knife.

This old man had used Illusion Technique to sneak into the Shen Family stronghold and had stolen a kitchen knife.

This kitchen knife must be extraordinary.

Now that he had seen it, he needed to find out what made this kitchen knife exceptional.

"Alright."

To Feng Tie’s surprise, Chen Kangbao did not hesitate and directly tossed the kitchen knife towards him.

After throwing it, Chen Kangbao quickly left.

This surprised Feng Tie.

Just like that, he left the kitchen knife behind?

Wasn’t that too easy to negotiate?

Could there be a plot behind this?

Still, he quickly caught the kitchen knife.

He examined the kitchen knife closely, his eyes flashing with a sharp look, "Such a sharp kitchen knife; I’m afraid its sharpness is not inferior to that of an Earth-level Magic Artifact!"

Feng Tie believed that Chen Kangbao, having stolen a treasure and been discovered by him, threw the kitchen knife to him as a way to buy time for his escape.

"No, how could there be a notch on the edge of this kitchen knife?"

He looked at the knife, a strange light in his eyes.

That notch was the zipper opening of the outer shell forged by Qi Yuan.

Qi Yuan and Chen Kangbao, in their haste to leave, did not pay attention to these details.

"A treasure within a treasure?" Feng Tie’s eyes gleamed with delight.

If this outer shell compared to an Earth-level Magic Artifact, what kind of treasure would be inside?

He was very pleased and pressed hard on the notch, trying to unlock and pull out the kitchen knife inside.

At that moment, a resigned voice sounded.

"Even kitchen knives aren’t safe from your prying; you’re quite the pervert!"

As the voice fell, a flash of light suddenly blazed.

Feng Tie incredulously clutched at his throat, blood spurting out continuously.

His large body thunderously crashed to the ground; he never imagined that the kitchen knife could be so sharp and even possess its own intelligence.

A Magic Artifact with its own intelligence was a Divine Artifact from legends!

But how could Ning Country have a Divine Artifact?

Caught off guard by a sneak attack, he had no chance to resist and died on the spot.

Qi Yuan’s form changed back to normal, "I didn’t expect killing with a kitchen knife could even slightly increase my proficiency."

He looked at Feng Tie’s body on the ground, his gaze calm.

If it were a head-on battle, with Qi Yuan’s current restored strength, it would have taken quite a few tricks to defeat him.

But as a kitchen knife, it was simple to ambush by surprise.

Too close and unguarded, Feng Tie was cut down with a single strike.

As he spoke, Qi Yuan began to rifle through Feng Tie’s body.

Three Earth-level Magic Artifacts were found: a soft armor, a dagger, and a lamp.

Besides that, there were 110,000 silver notes in the Storage Magical Artifact.

This was probably all of his wealth.

"There’s a letter from the flower thief Grandmaster Hengshan?"

Among the items in the Storage Magical Artifact, Qi Yuan found several letters.

The first few had some age to them and were written by Hengshan to Feng Tie, inviting him to explore a secret realm together.

"Shiwan Mountain? Absolute?"

This secret realm, known as Shiwan Mountain Absolute, was located in the uninhabited border area between Ning Country and Mosha Country.

There lay a hundred thousand great mountains, continuous and dangerous, full of miasma, and hiding various strange Strange Spirits.

Rumors said that even Sky Level Army Commanders could not traverse Shiwan Mountain Absolute.

"According to Hengshan, he discovered a newly built Underground Palace in Shiwan Mountain Absolute?"

A new Underground Palace, that’s interesting, isn’t it?

"Shiwan Mountain Absolute, why does it feel familiar?" muttered Chen Kangbao beside him.

Qi Yuan’s gaze remained calm, "It’s probably triggering one of your side quests."
