Chapter 252: Chapter 252: Fully Prepared_1
Not until he had left the Imperial City and arrived at a desolate suburb did Shen Yi summon the Golden Bead.
Fine golden threads once again wove together to form a stoic Golden Body Dharma Identity standing two zhang and three chi tall.
Far more robust than before, the body had vivid red patterns on the back that were eerie and horrifying.
But what drew the most attention was the thick Golden Dragon coiled around his arm, with its fangs bared and golden eyes fierce, seemingly alive.
Suddenly, the Golden Body raised a hand, and the dragon burst forth, spiraling in the air in a constricting motion before flying back and re-coiling around his arm.
“Tsk.”
Shen Yi’s expression was sowhat complicated.
The demon soul that had just taken him ten thousand years to condense had inexplicably vanished.
Turned into a “treasured” Divinity Transformation Realm Cultivation Technique.
Although the Golden Body Dharma Identity stood two zhang and three chi high, looking like a small building, it still hadn’t reached the Minor Achievent Realm—sothing seed amiss in his calculations.
For the standard Golden Body Technique, three zhang was considered complete.
This should be a good thing, right?
Shen Yi carefully calculated the total amount of Incense Willpower currently held by the Great Qian Dynasty, feeling sowhat uncertain inside.
“Forget it, I’ll take one step at a ti.”
Feeling the unabashed potent aura of the Golden Body, Shen Yi felt a bit more confidence about his upcoming visit to the Eight Directions Food Pavilion.
After waiting another twenty or so days to retrieve the Cold Jade Xuan Silk Hand from the artifact sect, his preparations would be nearly complete.
He couldn’t afford to waste this period of ti.
Shen Yi stowed the Golden Body and flew on clouds towards the Armory.
He might not be able to learn a new Cultivation Technique for the ti being, but the Martial Temple had seen the fall of many Transcendent Cultivators, surely leaving behind corresponding records.
This information was equally important.
…
In the Armory, a small attic.
Zhu Jue looked puzzledly at Shen Yi who stood before him; if he rembered correctly, they had parted less than three hours ago: “Junior brother, do you wish to know about the matters involving our predecessors after they left the Great Qian Dynasty?”
Upon receiving an affirmative reply,
Zhu Jue roughly guessed what the other wanted to do and had a taste of what little Wu must have felt.
He had just returned, and now he was about to run off again.
This wasn’t the Martial Temple, it was more like a rest stop for the other party.
“Junior brother, please wait a mont.”
With a helpless smile, Zhu Jue left the small attic and soon returned with an entire box of books: “It’s all in here.”
He casually picked up a book and patted it twice: “These items haven’t been perused in a long ti.”
Compared to Martial dicinal Treasures, these “travelogues” truly reflected the depth of a great power.
The precious experience docunted within was exchanged for by the lives of Divinity Transformation Realm Cultivators.
“Thank you, Senior Brother.”
Shen Yi reached out and took a pile of books, settling down in a corner.
Compared to the obscure martial arts, these books read more like storybooks, and he found them quite engrossing.
If he encountered sothing not thoroughly detailed in the books, he would directly ask Senior Brother Zhu nearby.
As ti slowly passed, a rough map gradually ford in Shen Yi’s mind, along with the distribution of the various powers, their particular lethal maneuvers, and the important details to heed about nurous perilous locations…
“Senior Brother, why does every book ntion the Xu Family?”
“When the entrance to a Cultivator’s cave dwelling is revealed, not only do we know where it is, but the Thousand Demon Cave does too. To evade their ambush, we need to find other entrances, and the Xu Family is the most proficient clan in formations,” Zhu Jue explained gently. “They just have a feud with Mysterious Light Cave, and rarely do their mbers venture out anymore. If Junior Brother encounters one, it might be worth trying to make their acquaintance.”
“Doesn’t Mysterious Light Cave need their expertise?” Shen Yi asked curiously, wondering what kind of deep grudge would make the Mysterious Light Cave prioritize vengeance over the safety of its disciples by continuing to pursue such a clan.
“It’s precisely because they are too useful, yet they were unwilling to pay the exorbitant compensation each ti, that Mysterious Light Cave initially captured over a hundred of their clan mbers, trying to force out the secrets of their inherited abilities… It’s said that only a few survived in the end, and the rest of the Xu Family, infuriated to the extre, simply set up a formation to slay a Transcendent Spirit True Man from Mysterious Light Cave, and then all went into hiding,”
Zhu Jue spoke of this matter with so embarrassnt; after all, in na, the Martial Temple and this Immortal Sect were allies: “We don’t have the power to manage it, and Wutong Mountain has no use for the Xu Family, given that those True n, even if they intend to enter a cave dwelling, are accustod to swaggering through the main entrance.”
Hearing this, Shen Yi silently shook his head.
Fortunately, he didn’t act impulsively back then, for with the power of the Initial Realm Primordial, if he truly ca into contact with Mysterious Light Cave,
It’s not to ntion being taken as a disciple; the greater likelihood, I’m afraid, is being captured and forced to divulge Demonic Martial Arts…
“By the way, senior brother,”
Suddenly, Shen Yi recalled sothing odd. After flipping through many books, he had gained a rough understanding of this place.
But the books never ntioned a term for the entire area.
“What exactly is the location of the Great Qian Dynasty?”
“What location?”
Zhu Jue’s face showed a hint of bewildernt, uncertainly saying, “The Immortal Sect?”
“…”
Shen Yi waited a mont before realizing that the other had finished speaking.
There was no prefix, just the two words ‘Immortal Sect.’
“Junior brother must be laughing at ; I’m just an ordinary Yin God Cultivator, who has hardly ever left Great Qian. I heard this na by chance from the mouth of an elder ancestor,”
Zhu Jue looked over apologetically.
After all, to anyone listening, ‘Immortal Sect’ doesn’t sound like a place na.
“I understand,”
Shen Yi nodded, his heart inexplicably recalling the words of Lady Qinghua.
Cultivators left behind cave dwellings that all had the habit of cultivating Year Wood, seeming to originate from the sa sect.
Most cave dwellings are located within the territory of Thousand Demon Cave.
The path ahead unclear for the disciples of the Immortal Sect, they must seek the way of cultivation within the cave dwellings.
Combining these pieces of information,
A trace of surprise flitted through Shen Yi’s eyes; why did it always feel as if the Martial Temple, those two Immortal Sect powers, and even Thousand Demon Cave were like upstarts, then parasitically attached themselves onto so colossal entity?
If that were indeed the case, where did those cultivators who left behind the cave dwellings go?
Shen Yi shook his head, such rumors and stories were not what he should be concerning himself with at the mont.
He cald his mind and carefully perused the books in his hands,
Ensuring he morized any ssage that seed useful,
Gradually refining the rough map in his mind.
Until reaching for the next book yielded nothing; the once-packed chest was now completely emptied.
“Junior brother, it has been over twenty days,”
Zhu Jue, who had stayed by his side the entire ti, was considerably more admiring in his gaze,
Previously, to him, Shen Yi was a Transcendent Cultivator with terrifying talent.
Now, the youth’s earnest gathering of information added much steadiness to his talent and strength.
Calm and composed, brave and strategic.
Little Wu’s worries were entirely unnecessary.
The Martial Temple owning such a young man is sothing even Wutong Mountain would envy.
“Let’s go,”
Shen Yi stood up and stretched his body; he had gained so understanding of the outside,
Among them were dangers and thrills.
And now, it was ti to personally experience these rumored stories.
