Chapter 307 - 286: Star Void Bird, Intercept and Kill

Chapter 307: Chapter 286: Star Void Bird, Intercept and Kill

Jiang Zuo looked toward the advanced Beast Cage.

"A Star Void Bird? Even its name has changed?"

Jiang Zuo was taken aback.

This was more than just an evolution for the Star Dust Bird; it had practically become a different species.

’Talent: Space Travel?’

Looking at the Star Void Bird’s description again, Jiang Zuo couldn’t help but widen his eyes.

It seemed only legendary Divine Beasts were capable of traversing space.

Yet the Star Void Bird, a Mutation of the Star Dust Bird, actually possessed such an astonishing talent.

"Try out your talent. Be careful not to travel too far."

Jiang Zuo couldn’t resist and immediately gave the Star Void Bird the command.

The Star Void Bird was already eager to try. With a flap of its silver wings, it vanished from before Jiang Zuo’s eyes in the next instant.

Jiang Zuo had already activated his Sight Rune Technique, wanting to see clearly how its Space Travel worked.

However, all Jiang Zuo could see was the Star Void Bird flickering as it instantly reappeared outside the door, more than ten meters away.

As for how it was accomplished, he couldn’t see clearly at all.

Outside the door, Tantai Feixue was startled by the Star Void Bird’s sudden appearance.

She had sensed an unusual aura flare up in the main hall, which was why she had come over.

She never expected to see a Star Void Bird suddenly fly out of the void.

’What kind of Spirit Beast is this?’

Tantai Feixue was shocked.

Space Travel was something only legendary Spirit Beasts were capable of.

But the Spirit Beast before her was only a Tier 4 Spirit Beast.

Jiang Zuo walked out. Seeing him, the Star Void Bird excitedly flew back onto his hand.

Jiang Zuo nodded in satisfaction and recalled it to the Spirit Garden.

’A talent for Space Travel...’ Jiang Zuo had already made up his mind: he would turn all the Star Dust Birds in his Spirit Garden into Star Void Birds.

If the offspring of Star Void Birds were also Star Void Birds, Jiang Zuo could gain the ability to travel through space by raising them!

"What kind of Spirit Beast is that?"

Tantai Feixue couldn’t help but ask.

The Star Void Bird differed from the Star Dust Bird not only in color, but its appearance had also changed drastically.

Jiang Zuo didn’t answer, just smiled faintly.

Then he swept her up in his arms and headed for the bedroom.

Tantai Feixue couldn’t help but roll her eyes at him.

’This guy. When he’s in the mood, he doesn’t care if it’s day or night.’

After a tumble in the sheets, Jiang Zuo devised a brand new development plan for the Star Dust Bird clan.

Jiang Zuo didn’t think a Tier 3 Star Dust Bird could achieve the Mutation into a Star Void Bird.

So, he first needed to raise all the Star Dust Birds to Tier 4.

Fortunately, he had plenty of Spirit Stones now, and with the Time Cultivation Tower, this was not a problem.

The Star Dust Birds he had personally raised over the years, in particular, quickly gained a fifty-fold cultivation speed, and their Cultivation began to skyrocket.

...

With a beautiful dual cultivation partner, Jiang Zuo’s life was exceedingly pleasant, and time itself seemed to fly by much faster.

If not for Cold Crow Wanderer and You Changheng fleecing him for over a million every year, Jiang Zuo’s life would be even more comfortable.

Two more years passed.

The second championship tournament was held as scheduled.

This time, Jiang Zuo appeared with Tantai Feixue, who was dressed up to look as beautiful as a celestial fairy.

A Cultivator at the early stage of the Three Flowers Realm, accompanied by a Celestial Immortal Companion at the mid-stage of the Dao Fruit Realm.

This sight filled countless male Cultivators with envy and jealousy.

Perhaps because the previous announcement of his union with Tantai Feixue had already milked too much prestige.

This year’s championship tournament brought Jiang Zuo significantly less prestige than the first one, only a little over fifty thousand points.

But this was still quite a lot.

After all, though people came and went and the population of Cultivators in the Immortal City was transient, a large portion of them were long-term residents.

Many of them could no longer provide Jiang Zuo with any more prestige.

Tantai Feixue followed behind Jiang Zuo, silently watching it all.

She rarely asked about Jiang Zuo’s affairs. If she pried even a little, not only would he not answer, but he would often just sweep her up and carry her to the bedroom.

But she still couldn’t understand the necessity of Jiang Zuo holding this competition.

Jiang Zuo gained no tangible benefits from the tournament, and his reputation no longer needed a competition to bolster it.

It could be said that Jiang Zuo was already one of the most famous Cultivators in the Cultivation Realm of the past two decades.

A little over three more years passed.

That night, within Jiang Zuo’s Qi Sea, five Divine Flowers of different colors on the Five-Colored Divine Tree bloomed completely.

The First Realm of Jiang Zuo’s Three Flowers Realm had reached utter Perfection.

And as a continuous stream of Spiritual Qi continued to pour into his body, Jiang Zuo broke through to the mid-stage of the Three Flowers Realm.

At the same moment Jiang Zuo broke through, a massive amount of extremely high-quality Spiritual Qi surged from his body into Tantai Feixue’s.

Before she began dual cultivation with Jiang Zuo, Tantai Feixue had already been cultivating at the mid-stage of the Dao Fruit Realm for quite some time.

After nearly a decade of dual cultivation at several times her normal cultivation speed, her Cultivation had long since reached the Perfection of the Dao Fruit Realm’s mid-stage.

Under the impact of this pure Spiritual Qi transferred from Jiang Zuo, Tantai Feixue felt the bottleneck in her Cultivation get effortlessly shattered.

She broke through to the late stage of the Dao Fruit Realm!

The exhilarating feeling of a Cultivation breakthrough made her face flush an unusual shade of red.

Her skin became so tender it seemed it would break with a touch, giving it a translucent, crystalline appearance.

Her already alluring body became even more seductive.

Jiang Zuo felt this was the perfect time for a celebration. The moment Tantai Feixue consolidated her new power, he immediately pinned her to the floor.

After all these years, Tantai Feixue had long since lost any desire to resist.

Usually, she would silently let Jiang Zuo have his way with her.

However, perhaps because she was excited from her recent breakthrough, she couldn’t help but reciprocate a little.

As a result, she discovered that things were getting a little out of hand.

...

After breaking through to the late Dao Fruit Realm, Tantai Feixue became even more diligent about the matter of dual cultivation.

Even her visits back to the Cyan Simurgh Sect became less frequent.

But seeing that she had broken through to the late Dao Fruit Realm, how would those in the Cyan Simurgh Sect who had issues with her dare to say anything?

At Tantai Feixue’s age, her chances of breaking through to the Manifestation Realm were extremely high.

Many people in the Immortal City came to offer congratulations. Many of them looked at Jiang Zuo, who was still in the Three Flowers Realm, and felt that the guy must have had some bullshit luck to be noticed by Tantai Feixue and become her companion.

’By the time Tantai Feixue breaks through to the Manifestation Realm, this Master Gu might only be at the late stage of the Three Flowers Realm.’

’A Three Flowers Realm cultivator with a Manifestation Realm companion... how many lifetimes of good karma did he accumulate for that?’

Some young Cultivators who had designs on Tantai Feixue couldn’t help but secretly curse him, hoping that after she broke through to the Manifestation Realm, she would kick this "Gu" to the curb so they could become her intimate guests.

Jiang Zuo, of course, paid them no mind.

These past few years, aside from raising Star Dust Birds, his main task had been monitoring Cold Crow Wanderer and You Changheng.

You Changheng had hardly ever left Yunyuan Immortal City, and even when he did, he used the Teleportation Array.

However, after more than ten years of surveillance, Cold Crow Wanderer finally gave Jiang Zuo a chance to make his move.

Every five years, Cold Crow Wanderer would leave the Immortal City alone for a trip, staying out for over a month before returning.

In a little over a year, if nothing unexpected happened, it would be Jiang Zuo’s chance to strike.

However, Jiang Zuo didn’t plan to act personally.

With half a year left, the Puppet Body far away in the Black Tortoise Dao Sect quietly departed once again.

After more than four months, the Puppet Body arrived outside the Immortal City.

Jiang Zuo found a time to go to the outer city and secretly handed a refined Array and several Spirit Beast Bags to the Puppet Body.

The Puppet Body left, went to a mountain forest in the wilderness, set up the Array, and then waited silently.

One night, a month later, Cold Crow Wanderer quietly left the Immortal City.

In the Immortal City, apart from a few individuals, almost no one knew he had left.

Cold Crow Wanderer flew over a mountain forest, just as he had in the past.

But at that moment, rays of light from an Array shot up from the ground into the sky.

A massive Array trapped Cold Crow Wanderer within it.

"Who’s there!" Cold Crow Wanderer roared angrily.

There was no answer, but below, two powerful auras flared to life.

"Tier 5 Spirit Beasts?"

"A giant black dog and a golden wolf?"

"Hmph! So it’s Master Gu!"

"But to think you could kill me with just two measly Tier 5 Spirit Beasts... you’re courting death!"

Seeing Great Black and the golden giant wolf, Cold Crow Wanderer inwardly relaxed.

However, in the next instant, the aura of another Tier 5 Spirit Beast appeared.

After the Tier 5 Spirit Beast, two more auras—not Tier 5, but exceptionally obscure—followed close behind.

"A third Tier 5 Spirit Beast?"

"And... is that a Divine Phoenix?"

As these several auras emerged, Cold Crow Wanderer’s expression couldn’t help but darken.
