"Liuhe?"
"That na isn’t bad. But Junior Brother, you are the Human Emperor Body; it would be better to choose ’Paeonia suffruticosa’."
Ruan Baii was taken aback. After all, the na Liuhe feels quite out of place.
"That makes sense. The na ’Paeonia suffruticosa’ too easily invites association with your identity."
Ruan Baii understood.
He was the Human Emperor Body, possessing the destiny of Paeonia suffruticosa. Known as a star god and associated with Wu Miao from Starfall Sect, it was difficult for others not to connect him to the identity of the Butian Sect’s Sect Leader...
Watching Ruan Baii leave, Xu Xing released the right hand that was holding Wu Miao’s slender waist and let out a sigh of relief.
Even though her cultivation was currently a notch weaker than his, he wasn’t confident of defeating a Taibai Immortal Body, who possessed a supre heritage, in a single battle.
"Joining the Butian Sect is too dangerous," he said to Wu Miao.
Whether it was him or Ruan Baii, both were Immortal Bodies and Dao Pill Daoists.
Within the Cultivation World, they could ensure their own safety.
One was a fugitive, unafraid of threats. The other was the Chief of the Flying Feather Immortal Palace and an Aristocratic Young Master; even if discovered, it wouldn’t be a major issue.
But Wu Miao was different. If the future Sect Master of Starfall Sect joined the "Butian Sect," and soone found out, it might lead to the risk of the sect’s destruction and her own death.
In one word, it’s not worth it! To ddle in such matters.
"True Disciple Xu..." Wu Miao shook her head slightly. "The conflict between the Northern Wilderness Falling Cot Sect and the Godslayer Sect is escalating. Starfall Sect... might perish in my hands..."
"By choosing to join your Butian Sect, you two Prides of Heaven surely wouldn’t sit by and watch my Starfall Sect decline..."
She smiled slyly.
Ruan Baii and Xu Xing might not care about the other Sect mbers who joined the Butian Sect later. But regarding Starfall Sect, the two of them could not just sit by and watch it perish.
"Makes sense!"
Xu Xing nodded.
To sit by and watch Starfall Sect perish would go against their organization’s principle of mutual support. The organization would then exist in na only.
What drives people is not just benefits, but also beliefs.
"Soone is coming..."
Suddenly, Xu Xing sensed several powerful presences approaching from the direction of Huge Mastiff Island.
He applied a Spell to his face, once again obscuring his true appearance.
Then, putting his arm around Wu Miao’s slender waist as she was looting corpses on the sea surface, he fled in the opposite direction.
The Outer Sea was vast.
Huge Mastiff Island was the only Spirit Island within a radius of seven thousand li.
After traveling nearly ten thousand li and confirming there were no pursuers, Xu Xing slowed down and stopped on a naless island.
He wasn’t sure if the cultivators coming from Huge Mastiff Island were friend or foe. So, he had quickly retreated to temporarily avoid them.
"These are the Storage Bags of those five Sea Bandits..."
"It was Liu Hao and his group; they wanted to ambush and kill ."
Wu Miao handed several Storage Bags to Xu Xing, explaining the Sea Bandits’ identities.
The Storage Bags were untouched.
The Magic Power imprints had not been broken.
"You are quite generous."
Xu Xing raised an eyebrow.
He took the Storage Bags, swept them with his Divine Sense, and effortlessly broke all the Magic Power imprints.
Then, glancing at the contents of the Storage Bags and seeing nothing particularly rare, he took so valuables and stuffed the remaining Storage Bags back into Wu Miao’s arms.
A few Freelance Cultivators in the Returning Core Realm were so poor they didn’t have any spoils to speak of. The Spirit Shells on them added up to less than two million. The remaining Spiritual Objects were worth a little, but their value was limited. As for Magical Artifacts, Array Banners, and similar items, selling them on the market would inevitably lead to exploitation by the various sects. The selling price was often less than half their actual value.
"Keep watch for for a while."
Xu Xing led Wu Miao into a Natural Cave on the Naless Island. After leveling a huge rock with a Magical Artifact, he sat down on the ground and instructed her.
He had engaged in Dual Cultivation with Wu Miao, and now, the Butian Sect had beco an additional variable... He didn’t know how the future would unfold. Conveniently, the main Immortal Fate, Eight Extres Immortal Life: Fengdu Heavenly Cao, had not yet been solidified. He still had one chance for Fate Deduction in the Dao Pill Realm.
"Yes, True Disciple Xu," Wu Miao responded obediently, walking to the entrance of the cave and blocking the only way in.
She was also a bit confused at this mont. It was clearly supposed to be a farewell... How co she was now following behind Xu Xing?
[Fengdu Heavenly Cao (Eight Extres): Ghost Register: Beidu Luofeng. Position: Underworld Celestial Administration. An officer of the Six Cases rit Officers, responsible for transmitting the Yin Emperor’s edicts. If a karmic thod is encountered, one can be granted the three official books.]
"It’s not much different from the previous introduction of Nine Luminaries Immortal Fate [Underworld Ghost Judge]."
"Maybe it’s because both the Returning Core Realm and the Dao Pill Realm involve cultivating the Golden Core?"
Xu Xing looked at the secondary page for [Fengdu Heavenly Cao] on the bronze Mirror Surface and mused silently.
His other main Immortal Fate, the Eighth Extres Immortal Life: Fusang Golden Crow, had advanced to a Seven-elents Immortal Fate, but the Immortal Fate itself had hardly changed; only its rank had increased by one level.
In ancient tis, there were only two major realms: Foundation Establishnt and Golden Core, without such detailed divisions as Immortal Base, Returning Core, and Dao Pill. The path of cultivation in heaven and earth was constantly evolving. The division of realms would inevitably beco more and more detailed.
"I hope this variable involving the Butian Sect is a good thing..."
With a thought, Xu Xing began the process of solidifying the Eight Extres Immortal Life [Fengdu Heavenly Cao] in the [Immortal Fate] section using [Dao Fruit].
In an instant,
another Fate Deduction scenario appeared before his eyes.
It started from obtaining the Nine Luminaries Immortal Fate [Underworld Ghost Judge], bidding farewell to Fengping Valley, killing Jinglian True Monarch..., returning to East Huangzhou, the auction, the Giant Sword Daoist Monarch’s demise..., all the way up to the present.
「Finally, the scenario changed.」
In the 143rd year of the Tiande era, Xu Xing successfully condensed a First-Rate Dao Pill. Masking his appearance and concealing his na, he arrived at Huge Mastiff Island in the Outer Sea of the Wangchuan Sea, joined the Hundred Treasures Pavilion, and beca one of its Sub-Pavilion Elders.
