Cultivation Begins From The Desert Chapter 113 - 111: Change in Situation (Request for Subscrip

The exchange eting on White Cal Peak lasted for more than half a day before it finally ended.

Through this exchange eting, most of the participating cultivators gained so rewards, more or less, while families like the Liu Family of Chixia Mountain, the Yang Family of Golden Spring Valley, and the Zhou Family of Jade Spring Lake, who have several Foundation Establishnt Cultivators, returned with full loads and obtained what they wanted.

After the exchange eting ended, the three mbers of the Zhou Family first secretly exchanged the treasures they held with so cultivators, and then returned together to the "Jade Spring Tower" in Ping’an Marketplace to distribute the gains from this exchange eting.

"Before the distribution, let first talk about the rewards we got from this exchange eting."

Zhou Minghan, being the cultivator with the highest cultivation and seniority in the Zhou Family, was in charge of the items obtained from the exchange eting. At this mont, he first released Divine Sense to set up a Divine Sense barrier to prevent eavesdropping or anyone seeing the situation inside the room, and then began explaining the items obtained from the exchange eting one by one.

"In this exchange eting, we obtained two types of Tier Three Spirit Pills, including four bottles with twenty pieces of ’Nourishing Essence Pill,’ one bottle with seven pieces of ’Red Sun Pill,’ as well as two Tier Three Middle-Grade Spirit Talismans and five Tier Three Lower-Grade Spirit Talismans, and one Tier Three Lower-Grade Array Map."

The "Nourishing Essence Pill" and "Red Sun Pill" were obtained from the Yang Family, the Spirit Talismans from the Liu Family and an independent Tier Three Talisman Maker, and the Tier Three Lower-Grade Array Map was exchanged by an independent Foundation Establishnt Cultivator, making it arguably the biggest gain from this exchange eting.

This little bit of stuff actually did not need Zhou Minghan to point out, as Zhouyang and his father already had a count, and they both knew that Zhou Minghan was ntioning these just to lay the groundwork for the upcoming distribution.

Sure enough, after speaking about the gains, Zhou Minghan suddenly looked at the father and son and said, "I am not far from breaking through to the Eighth Layer of Foundation Establishnt, so I will take three ’Red Sun Pills’ to use for the breakthrough, and the rest you can split equally. As for the ’Nourishing Essence Pill,’ it is of no use to anymore, so you can also distribute it yourselves. Regarding these Spirit Talismans, I’ll take three Tier Three Lower-Grade Spirit Talismans to keep on hand, and the rest will be left for you two to distribute."

"Isn’t this unfair to you, Great Grandfather? Why don’t you take two Tier Three Middle-Grade Spirit Talismans, and the remaining Tier Three Lower-Grade Spirit Talismans will be for us?"

Zhouyang’s face showed surprise, and he couldn’t help but speak up to advise.

The items exchanged at the exchange eting, Zhou Minghan had offered a Tier Three Middle-Grade Magical Artifact and a Tier Three Lower-Grade Magical Artifact for them. The value of these two artifacts was not comparable to the few elixirs and Spirit Talismans he took.

"What’s fair or unfair among family? Xiao Jiu, when you previously shared the Secret Technique you obtained with , didn’t I also give you no reward? Moreover, with my cultivation level, a Tier Three Middle-Grade Spirit Talisman would not allow to win in an evenly matched battle, but for you, it would be enough to use as a trump card!"

Zhou Minghan waved his hand, indicating to Zhouyang not to persuade further, and then directly selected the elixirs and Spirit Talismans he had chosen and stored them in his Storage Bag.

"But..." Zhouyang still wanted to persuade, but Zhou Xuanhao then said, "Listen to the old clan leader. I only need one bottle of ’Nourishing Essence Pill’ and one ’Red Sun Pill.’ The rest of the elixirs, Yang’Er, you should keep them and take them slowly in the future. Be sure not to be greedy and cause future harm!"

"Xuanhao is right. Although the ’Nourishing Essence Pill’ is said to have the mildest dicinal properties, there is still Erysipelas, Xiao Jiu. You must not covet a montary benefit and leave hidden dangers for your future path." Zhou Minghan nodded, followed by admonishing Zhouyang kindly as a reminder.

They did not know that Zhouyang could purify Erysipelas through the "Qianyang Immortal Light"; they were simply giving advice from the perspective of an Alchemist and an experienced person, with good intentions.

Zhouyang then didn’t say more, silently collecting all the elixirs, and along with his father Zhou Xuanhao, they each took two Spirit Talismans, distributing the remaining four Spirit Talismans, and the Tier Three Array Map was entrusted to Zhouyang, the clan leader, for safekeeping.

After distributing the gains from the exchange eting, the three Zhou Family mbers took advantage of the lack of further orders from the Yellow Sand Sect, and all entered Closed-Door Cultivation to refine the spirit pills to improve their cultivation.

However, during the ti they were in Closed-Door Cultivation refining the spirit pills, elsewhere in the Boundless Sea of Sand Cultivation Realm, drastic changes were occurring.

The Golden Core Demon Cultivator Blood Nether, who escaped the battle at the Demon Cave that day, disregarding his unhealed injuries and without any deanor of a Golden Core Stage Cultivator, brazenly attacked the Tier Four Spirit Mountain, Red Tiger Mountain, directly controlled by the Yellow Sand Sect, with the remaining two unhard Purple Mansion Cultivators of the Blood Slaughter Demon Sect.

Red Tiger Mountain is a Tier Four Top-Grade Spirit Mountain, with a Tier Four Top-Grade Array and a Purple Mansion Stage Cultivator stationed. When Blood Nether attacked the Spirit Mountain, Luo Yunqing, the stationed Yellow Sand Sect Purple Mansion Cultivator, along with more than twenty Foundation Establishnt Cultivators and hundreds of Qi Cultivation Cultivators on the mountain, desperately defended it, waiting for Elder Cao of Yellow Sand Sect, Cao Wenjin, to arrive with reinforcents.

However, Blood Nether, having suffered once, did not engage Cao Wenjin directly, and upon finding the Yellow Sand Sect reinforcents arriving, he imdiately led his n to retreat and leave.

This attack, although it did not break the Spirit Mountain of Red Tiger Mountain, in order to withstand the attack of a Golden Core Stage Cultivator, including Luo Yunqing, the Purple Mansion and Foundation Establishnt high-levels on Red Tiger Mountain were injured internally, and so Qi Cultivation Cultivators even perished directly under the aftermath of the Golden Core Stage Cultivator’s attack.

Furthermore, before attacking Red Tiger Mountain, Blood Nether and others had already attacked several Tier Three Spirit Mountains belonging to the Yellow Sand Sect nearby, killing several Foundation Establishnt Cultivators of Yellow Sand Sect and over a hundred Qi Cultivation disciples.

Perhaps it was the sweet taste of success from the attack on Red Tiger Mountain; less than three months later, Blood Nether led forces to swiftly attack another Tier Four Spirit Mountain, Fire Crystal Mountain, which was guarded by a Purple Mansion Cultivator.

Fire Crystal Mountain was not located on a large oasis but was developed when a Tier Two Spirit Ore "Fire Crystal Stone" mine discovered a companion dium-sized Spirit Stone ore hundreds of years ago. The Yellow Sand Sect then spent over three hundred thousand Spirit Stones to painstakingly create a Tier Four Lower Grade Spirit Mountain, quickly establishing a dium-sized oasis nearly as significant as the Yuquan Lake Oasis.

Because the Spirit Mountain was only Tier Four Lower Grade, even though Fire Crystal Mountain was guarded by a Tier Four Top Grade array and had more Foundation Establishnt Cultivators than Red Tiger Mountain, it still couldn’t withstand Blood Nether’s assault, being slaughtered entirely before the Yellow Sand Sect’s reinforcents could arrive.

In this battle, the Yellow Sand Sect lost one Fourth-Layer Purple Mansion Cultivator, twenty-seven Foundation Establishnt Cultivators, and over two hundred Qi Cultivation Stage disciples, marking the greatest loss in nearly five hundred years!

This battle shocked the entire Desert Sea Cultivation Realm, seemingly erasing the previous achievents the Yellow Sand Sect had gained from the Demon Cave battle.

For a while, the entire Desert Sea Cultivation Realm was in terror of demons, with all Spirit Mountains under the Yellow Sand Sect’s control and every clan living in fear that their residences and family might beco the next Fire Crystal Mountain.

And their fears seed to have been realized!

Less than a month after the Fire Crystal Stone incident, while all the cultivators of the Yellow Sand Sect were still mourning the nurous comrades lost in the Fire Crystal Mountain battle, Blood Nether struck again!

This ti, the target wasn’t a Spirit Mountain directly under the Yellow Sand Sect, but a large oasis similar to the Baisha River Oasis, guarded by one Purple Mansion Clan and several Foundation Establishnt Clans.

Because it wasn’t a Spirit Mountain directly under the Yellow Sand Sect, the Purple Mansion Clan’s Mountain Protection Array was only Tier Four Middle Grade, unable to withstand Blood Nether’s fierce attack. The array was soon broken by Blood Nether, and the entire clan was massacred.

However, after this easy victory, Blood Nether, perhaps sensing he had more ti based on Cao Wenjin’s previous support speeds, did not imdiately retreat as he did after the attack on Fire Crystal Mountain.

Instead, he led his n to plunder the Marketplace on the oasis, slaughtering hundreds of Qi Cultivation Cultivators as "resources," intending to use them for healing purposes.

But he hadn’t expected that this slight delay of less than two periods of ti allowed Cao Wenjin, along with four Yellow Sand Sect Purple Mansion Cultivators and an independent Golden Core Cultivator "Golden Light Ascendant" from the Boundless Desert Sea Cultivation Realm, to arrive on the oasis using the Tier Five Flying Spiritual Artifact "Thunderbolt Golden Light Shuttle" owned by Golden Light Ascendant, blocking his escape route.

This independent cultivator "Golden Light Ascendant" wasn’t highly cultivated, only at the Fourth-Layer Golden Core, but he had great fortunes in his life, having inherited from a failed Nascent Soul Formation Ninth-Layer Golden Core independent cultivator, possessing several powerful treasures.

One of the treasures nad "Soul Capturing Treasure Pearl" could release "Soul-Devouring Golden Light" that could even confuse Golden Core Stage Cultivators, perfectly restraining escape techniques like Blood Escape Technique.

After the Fire Crystal Mountain battle, Cao Wenjin realized that relying solely on the current power of the Yellow Sand Sect was insufficient to confront Blood Nether, who, like a mad dog, was retaliating everywhere without regard for the Golden Core Cultivators’ face.

Therefore, he outwardly pretended to be grieving over his disciples’ deaths, retreating to reflect without eting guests while secretly visiting Golden Light Ascendant’s secluded dwelling. He lured Golden Light Ascendant to co out and help eliminate the demon by offering permission and assistance to establish a sect in the Desert Sea Cultivation Realm.

At that ti, Cao Wenjin and Golden Light Ascendant, two Golden Core Cultivators, along with four Purple Mansion Stage Cultivators suddenly appeared. Blood Nether, shocked and panicked, imdiately prepared to use the Blood Escape Technique to flee based on his many years of experience in escaping death.

But he never expected that the unfamiliar Golden Core Cultivator "Golden Light Ascendant" beside Cao Wenjin, whose na he’d never heard, would possess a treasure specifically restraining his Blood Escape Technique.

Thus, he t his downfall!

Golden Light Ascendant, having received Cao Wenjin’s ticulous instructions, had no intention of testing each other upon encountering Blood Nether. He imdiately used the "Soul Capturing Treasure Pearl" to captivate Blood Nether’s Divine Soul. Then Cao Wenjin directly drew his Flying Sword, easily decapitating Blood Nether.

Of course, as the Vice Sect Leader of the Blood Slaughter Demon Sect, Blood Nether naturally possessed a "Substitute Blood Puppet," which even the Purple Mansion Stage Cultivator Blood Mo Luo had. After Cao Wenjin decapitated him, Blood Nether’s body turned into a headless blood-colored puppet, while his true body remained unscathed.

Unfortunately, although the "Substitute Blood Puppet" could help cultivators below the Nascent Soul Stage survive one deadly attack, it couldn’t break the control of the "Soul-Devouring Golden Light."

As soon as Blood Nether’s true body appeared, a prepared Cao Wenjin decapitated him again, simultaneously shattering Blood Nether’s Golden Core and the Divine Soul hidden within it.
