Chapter 204: Chapter 192: Level 22 Cabbage Flower Snake, Damaged Ten Thousand Beasts Drum
Right now, Xu Qing’s Martial Cultivation had reached the Peak of the Eighth Realm, and his Demon Path Cultivation had also reached the Peak of the Eighth-Turned Demon Pill Realm. He was growing ever more powerful.
“It’s not enough! Far from enough!” Xu Qing said grimly.
Xu Qing’s brow furrowed slightly. ’Moreover, the speed at which I’m gaining Experience Points is still too slow. At this rate, it will take me at least half a year to break into the Nine Realms Realm.’
However, Xu Qing currently had no better solution. He had already mastered LV20 Dharma Artifacts from five different paths, and stacking their Domains had already pushed him to the limit of what was currently possible.
So, all Xu Qing could do now was slowly level up over time.
’I guess this is the only way,’ Xu Qing mused.
「Seven days later.」
On this particular morning.
ROAR!
Xu Qing was practicing the Baji Celestial Roc Fist. His Fist Technique was exquisite and incredibly fast. In a single second, he had already completed the full routine four times, gaining four Experience Points.
At this moment, a dragon-like cry echoed in Xu Qing’s mind. The voice came from the Cabbage Flower Snake, which was no longer the creature it once was.
Over a long period, the Cabbage Flower Snake had followed the Fierce Beast Path without ever taking human form. It hunted in the wild, and its special Divine Technique, the Devouring Stomach, allowed it to consume vast amounts of flesh every day.
This consumed flesh was then converted into a massive amount of Experience Points.
This allowed Xu Qing to level up the Cabbage Flower Snake.
In just a few short years, the Cabbage Flower Snake had grown into an incredibly terrifying creature. It had become a Twelve-Level Ferocious Beast, equivalent to a Martial Arts Grandmaster of the Third True Realm.
[Cabbage Flower Snake LV22: 200,000/20,971,520 (A ’Devouring Python’ that evolved step-by-step from an ordinary Cabbage Flower Snake. It possesses the massive body of a thousand-meter-long ferocious beast, has awakened the Divine Techniques ’Devouring Stomach’ and ’Boundless Power’, and has reached the level of a Twelve-Level Ferocious Beast.)]
’Hm?’ Xu Qing’s expression grew pensive as he carefully listened to the message from the Cabbage Flower Snake.
’The Cabbage Flower Snake is LV22… an ordinary snake that, after countless upgrades, has now become a Level 12 Ferocious Beast.’ Xu Qing felt a surge of emotion. ’It’s already equivalent to a Martial Arts Grandmaster of the Third True Realm. And I barely did anything to raise it; it grew all on its own by hunting in the wild.’
Clearly, the Cabbage Flower Snake was arguably the most powerful member under Xu Qing’s command.
’The Ten Thousand Beasts Drum?’ Xu Qing froze for a moment, then a look of joy spread across his face. “The Cabbage Flower Snake actually found what I needed in the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect,” he said, his voice laced with astonishment.
Currently, Xu Qing possessed Dharma Artifacts from five paths—the Buddhist Sect, Taoist Sect, Confucian Sect, Demon Sect, and Deceit Gate. All of them had reached LV20, allowing him to stack their Domains into ten layers.
He was indeed still missing a Demon Cultivation Dharma Artifact.
If Xu Qing could find a suitable Demon Cultivation Dharma Artifact and raise it to LV20, he would have collected Dharma Artifacts from six paths. Then, he would be able to stack even more Domains and produce an even stronger effect.
This way, he could increase the rate at which he gained Experience Points.
“Good, good, good.” The smile on Xu Qing’s face grew even wider.
In addition, Xu Qing slowly learned that the LV22 Cabbage Flower Snake had joined the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect a year after the Reincarnation Ruins incident. It had become an Elder of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect and had even acquired a mountain range named Wolong within the sect’s territory of the Hundred Thousand Mountains as its lair.
The LV22 Cabbage Flower Snake’s growth rate was so fast that it had even caught the attention of the Master of Ten Thousand Demons Gate. Just a month ago, the Cabbage Flower Snake passed a test set by the Sect Leader. Then, with all the demons as witnesses, the Master of Ten Thousand Demons Gate personally took the Cabbage Flower Snake as a Direct Disciple.
In other words, the Cabbage Flower Snake was now qualified to become the next Master of Ten Thousand Demons Gate.
Furthermore, after becoming a Direct Disciple of the Master of Ten Thousand Demons Gate, it went to the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect’s treasury, which is where it discovered the Ten Thousand Beasts Drum.
’Then I’ll have Ye Langtian go to the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect and retrieve the Ten Thousand Beasts Drum,’ Xu Qing mused.
The Cabbage Flower Snake’s body was simply too large. Despite being only a Level 12 Ferocious Beast, it was over a thousand meters long, which was truly an exaggeration.
Within the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, even the Level 15 Ferocious Beasts—the Supreme Elders of the sect—were somewhat smaller than the Cabbage Flower Snake.
This was the Cabbage Flower Snake’s potential.
Through upgrade after upgrade, transformation after transformation, an ordinary Cabbage Flower Snake had broken its limits, shattered all boundaries, and reached such a state.
Because of this, the LV22 Cabbage Flower Snake’s enormous size made it difficult for it to move about easily. Xu Qing couldn’t possibly go to the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect himself, so he thought of Ye Langtian.
That afternoon, Xu Qing issued the order for Ye Langtian to depart for the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect. The LV22 Cabbage Flower Snake also received Xu Qing’s long-distance telepathic message.
After giving his instructions, all Xu Qing had to do was wait.
In the blink of an eye, three days passed.
Ye Langtian was, after all, the second-in-command of the Blood Demon Sect Branch. It only took him a day to reach the territory of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, the region known as the “Hundred Thousand Mountains.”
Then, Ye Langtian spent another day secretly meeting with the LV22 Cabbage Flower Snake. He was truly stunned when he saw it with his own eyes: a massive, thousand-meter-long serpentine body resting among the mountains, its incomparably majestic head as imposing as a mountain peak.
SWOOSH!
The next moment, the LV22 Cabbage Flower Snake opened its cavernous mouth and extended its forked tongue. At the very tip rested a large, ancient drum.
“Alright.” Ye Langtian took a deep breath, doing his best to calm himself. He quickly reached out and took the Ten Thousand Beasts Drum from the tip of the snake’s tongue.
WHOOSH!
The LV22 Cabbage Flower Snake retracted its tongue and closed its massive eyes once more.
Not daring to linger in the territory of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, Ye Langtian left quickly after getting the item. He wanted to avoid attracting the attention of the Demon Race and causing unnecessary trouble.
Fortunately, his departure was uneventful.
It took Ye Langtian only a day to return to Moon River Prefecture City.
Late at night, in a deserted alley outside a courtyard.
Xu Qing donned the Evil Ghost Mask to alter his appearance and met with Ye Langtian. Ye Langtian promptly handed the Ten Thousand Beasts Drum over to him.
“Master, this is the Ten Thousand Beasts Drum you needed,” Ye Langtian said.
“Mm,” Xu Qing nodded, accepting the Ten Thousand Beasts Drum.
“Go back,” Xu Qing said with a wave of his hand. “If anything major happens, remember to report the details to me.”
“Yes, as you command,” Ye Langtian said respectfully.
SWISH!
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Langtian departed. His figure transformed into a cloud of black mist, melting into the darkness. In the blink of an eye, he was gone.
SWISH!
Xu Qing also left quickly.
In a blink, Xu Qing was back at his residence and inside his bedroom.
’Catalog.’
Xu Qing took out the Ten Thousand Beasts Drum. With a flicker of his thought, he connected his consciousness to the Encyclopedia of All Things. As the Encyclopedia glimmered with a fluorescent light, the Ten Thousand Beasts Drum in Xu Qing’s hand also flashed with white light.
VMM! VMM!
Soon, a series of images appeared before Xu Qing’s eyes. In the images, he saw that the Ten Thousand Beasts Drum was a Dharma Artifact created long ago by the founding Demon Ancestor of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, the Ten Thousand Demons Snake Ancestor. It had been refined from the skins of ten thousand different demons. It was also a very powerful War Dharma Artifact; striking the Ten Thousand Beasts Drum could ignite the Battle Intent of all demons and boost their combat power.
However, the Ten Thousand Beasts Drum had been damaged by a powerful Martial Artist during a war. As time went on, the power it contained grew weaker and weaker.
Now, it was just an ordinary Dharma Artifact.
Perhaps even less than ordinary.
[Damaged Ten Thousand Beasts Drum LV1: 0/100 (This is a ’War Drum’ refined by the founding Demon Ancestor of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, the ’Ten Thousand Demons Snake Ancestor’, from the skins of ten thousand different demons. However, due to damage sustained in war and erosion over time, it has long since lost its original power.)]
After the cataloging was successful, the corresponding information flooded into his mind.
