Chapter 128: Chapter 128: Harvest and Aftermath, the Illusory Spirit Pearl
Over the past ten thousand years, the Immortal Way has flourished.
This was true for both the inland Cultivation Realm and the island Cultivation Realms.
Under the overwhelming influence of the Immortal Way, countless minor, heterodox paths chose to change course, converting to the foundations of immortal cultivation.
At most, their original practices were converted into unique skills within the frawork of immortal cultivation.
For example: Gu arts, Exorcism, Inviting Gods, Curses...
These techniques still existed.
But they were no longer the foundation of one’s cultivation, rely a set of skills.
Take the Southern Border of the inland Cultivation Realm, for example.
Even now, many cultivators still called themselves Gu Masters, but unlike in ancient tis, they no longer used Gu worms as their core foundation.
Instead, they practiced immortal Cultivation Techniques, using Gu worms as unique tools, much like spiritual artifacts or talismans.
And now...
Within Songhezi’s mories, Su Ye had discovered a cultivation system that was completely different from the Immortal Way?
’A complete cultivation system, untouched by the influence of the Immortal Way... That’s truly rare...’
’Interesting...’ A glint appeared in Su Ye’s eyes.
’This Bloodline True Form inheritance... where in the world did Navasen find it?’
’Ancient ruins? A secret realm? Is that also where he obtained the resources to advance to the Third Order?’
A contemplative look crossed Su Ye’s face.
However, with insufficient information, it was difficult to deduce the whole story.
’Forget it. No need to dwell on it.’
’One day, when I reach the Core Formation realm, I’ll capture Navasen and perform a Soul Search. Then all his secrets will be laid bare.’
’First, I need to clean up the battlefield...’
With a slight twitch of his fingers, Su Ye manipulated the water, forming it into the sharpest of blades.
Songhezi’s corpse was instantly shredded into countless pieces.
WHOOSH.
The current of water swept up a faint golden Storage Ring and delivered it right to Su Ye.
It was Songhezi’s Storage Ring.
Next, Su Ye returned to where the black-veiled female cultivator had fallen.
He did the sa, destroying the body to erase all traces before taking her Storage Ring.
...
「Aboard the Ghostly Flood Dragon.」
Su Ye took a mont to reassure Luo Xiyin, who had been guarding the spiritual vessel.
During the battle, Luo Xiyin hadn’t just stood by idly; she had been eager to join the fight.
However, Su Ye had sent her a specific voice transmission, ordering her to guard the spiritual vessel and stay out of the fight.
After activating the Heart of the Vast Sea, Su Ye could effortlessly use the Water Escape Skill, a technique typically only available to Core Formation cultivators.
Of course, Luo Xiyin could be trusted.
But in the Cultivation Realm, there were countless bizarre techniques for prying into a person’s sea of consciousness.
For a secret of this magnitude, the fewer people who knew, the better!
With the disturbance over, the Ghostly Flood Dragon returned to its peaceful journey, black sails hoisted high as it continued on its course.
...
Then, Su Ye returned to the captain’s cabin.
He took out the Storage Rings from Songhezi and the black-veiled female cultivator, placing them in the palm of his hand.
HUMMM!
Azure Magical Power and his Divine Sense surged forth, grinding away at the restrictive seals on the Storage Rings.
Soon, the seals shattered.
Su Ye’s Divine Sense probed into the Storage Rings.
’Tsk, tsk... Just how many cultivators did they have to kill to amass this fortune?’
Su Ye toyed with the Storage Rings, a glint in his eyes as he took stock of the resources inside.
As notorious outlaw cultivators with countless bloody deeds to their nas, the pair had amassed a considerable fortune.
The resources within their Storage Rings were abundant.
First, there were two Spiritual Artifacts: Songhezi’s finely crafted, mid-grade long halberd and the black-veiled woman’s low-grade flying dagger.
Together, they were worth seven or eight thousand Spirit Stones.
The various miscellaneous items and Spirit Stones in the rings, after a quick tally, were worth nearly another ten thousand Spirit Stones!
Beyond that, there were two items that particularly interested Su ye.
One was a magnificent, multicolored pearl suffused with an illusory spiritual aura.
’The Illusion Spirit Pearl. After a cultivator refines it, they can use it to conceal their appearance and Magical Power fluctuations.’
In addition to concealing one’s aura, the Illusion Spirit Pearl also had a mitic function, allowing its user to assu an entirely different identity!
Disguising one’s appearance, concealing one’s aura, and masking Magical Power fluctuations—it was truly an essential treasure for any outlaw cultivator!
As a notorious outlaw cultivator, Songhezi had committed a mountain of bloody cris, yet he had remained at large for years.
This Illusion Spirit Pearl was largely to thank for that!
’The concealing and mitic power of the Illusion Spirit Pearl is tied to one’s Divine Sense.’
’With my current Divine Sense, even soone at Foundation Establishnt Perfection might not be able to see through the disguise...’
Su Ye gazed at the Illusion Spirit Pearl, a conflicted look in his eyes.
’An item this effective... isn’t it just tempting a person to commit cris?’
’Sigh...’
’I, Su Ye, have always been an upstanding and kind person. I deeply detest the actions of outlaw cultivators...’
’Ah, well. I’ll just hold onto it for now. It might be useful soday...’
After a mont of thought, Su Ye put the Illusion Spirit Pearl away.
With this item, he could now handle certain matters that were not suitable for his ’Su Ye’ identity.
He could just let an alias handle them...
’What would be a good na for my alias...?’
Besides the Illusion Spirit Pearl, there was one more item in the outlaw cultivators’ Storage Rings that ca as a pleasant surprise to Su Ye!
’The Ten Thousand Souls Blood Sail!’
"Another Ten Thousand Souls Blood Sail!" Su Ye exclaid with delight.
So ti ago, a Foundation Establishnt cultivator had been ambushed and killed by an outlaw cultivator outside Weiyuan Immortal City. That cultivator had been carrying a Ten Thousand Souls Blood Sail.
And now, that very sa Ten Thousand Souls Blood Sail was lying quietly inside Songhezi’s Storage Ring!
’As expected... Songhezi was the one behind it.’
’But for , this is a turn of good fortune!’
A smile touched Su Ye’s lips as two blood-red stones spun between his fingertips.
As the cool, smooth stones collided, the faint screams of living souls could be heard emanating from within.
’Two Ten Thousand Souls Blood Sails...’
’After the Ghostly Flood Dragon completely absorbs them, the number of living souls in its Soul Abyss Blood Prison will reach eighty thousand!’
’That’s not far from the one hundred thousand souls required to upgrade it to a Tier-2 Mid-Grade spiritual vessel!’
...
「Four hours later.」
From the direction of Weiyuan Immortal City, two streaks of Escape Light sped through the air, coming to a halt above the site of the battle before revealing their forms.
They were none other than Deng Jinhai and Bai Xiuying, disciples of the honored Canghai!
The valiant female Sword Immortal, with eyebrows as sharp as blades, stood upon her flying sword and ford a hand seal to sense her surroundings.
"There are residual fluctuations from a battle here. Three Foundation Establishnt cultivators were involved."
"One of them should be Su Ye, the Supre Elder of Donglong’s Luo Clan..."
"The other two are of unknown identity, but they were most likely outlaw cultivators..."
"And the outco... he killed two Mid-stage Foundation Establishnt outlaw cultivators?!"
"And Luo Xiyin didn’t even fight?!"
Bai Xiuying’s eyes widened slightly in surprise.
’An Early-stage Foundation Establishnt cultivator killed two Mid-stage Foundation Establishnt outlaw cultivators? Ones with rich combat experience and countless bloody deeds to their nas?’
"Impressive!"
"Truly worthy of a prodigy who achieved Foundation Establishnt on his own rits..."
Deng Jinhai said in admiration, then continued.
"Miss Bai, with a man of his caliber, why didn’t you try to recruit him back then?"
"Luo Xiyin, the matriarch of her family, has lowered herself to serve him. How could I possibly compete when the Luo Family has invested so heavily?"
Bai Xiuying retorted, her face impassive.
Back when she had first visited him, she had also intended to recruit Su Ye as an Honored Guest Elder for the Immortal City.
But after discovering the ambiguous nature of his relationship with Luo Xiyin, she had imdiately abandoned the thought.
"Not necessarily..." Deng Jinhai said with a sly grin.
"Couldn’t the charms of Yuqing have swayed him?"
"Mr. Deng, I’ll ask you to retract such a jest!"
Bai Xiuying’s sharp brows furrowed, her tone turning cold.
"I have already dedicated my life to the Great Dao. I have no ti for such trivial romance!"
...
...
...
Sorry for the late Chapter.
I wasn’t in a good state this morning; my mind was completely scattered...
There will be another Chapter this afternoon.
I’m trying my best to write, but I’m a very slow writer, so please bear with ...
