Reigning Supreme in countless worlds With Beast taming - Chapter 657 - 652: Gui Ling Bestows Treasures, Mysterious Techniques
Outside the city, more and more cultivators gathered within a few hundred miles of the area, turning the place upside down both above and beneath the waters, yet they failed to find any trace of Qin Feng and his companion.
This situation left the cultivators feeling troubled.
“The residual aura here is too chaotic, with nearly a hundred different traces. It’s really hard to discern where they have gone!”
A young man with bright eyes but a very thin frame shook his head and said helplessly.
Beside him, a tall cultivator frowned, “Even you, the renowned Treasure Seeking Rat, can’t find them. It seems these two might really have used some secret technique to avoid our pursuit!”
“I am not from the Demon Clan, stop calling me Treasure Seeking Rat!”
The thin young man glared at the cultivator displeasedly and continued, “Maybe they didn’t escape at all, they could have entered the city to hide, or possibly deployed Beiming Immortal Mansion to conceal their aura with the Cave Heaven Treasure and hid in the shadows—any of these are possible!”
“Hmph…”
Even though they were thousands of feet away, several Primordial Spirit Cultivators at the city gate still heard their conversation and couldn’t help but snort coldly: “Are you questioning our judgment?
With us guarding here, they couldn’t have come in. Even if our eyesight fails, there are immortals from White Bone City here. What, do you doubt Senior Wei as well?”
“Not at all, not at all, I meant no disrespect!”
The thin young man quickly shook his head, bowed towards them, and then turned and retreated.
Although the immortal at the city gate didn’t glance over, he still didn’t dare linger.
It’s better not to provoke the immortals of White Bone City casually, otherwise if they find an excuse and slay him, he would have nowhere to seek justice.
“Since they haven’t entered the city, there’s a high chance they’re hiding within a Space Magical Treasure or a Cave Heaven World. Let’s split up and search; even if it’s a Cave Heaven World, since it has appeared, it cannot leave no traces at all.”
Immediately someone called out to the people and did not loiter outside the city gate any longer but left.
Currently, White Bone City is gathering cultivators from nearby sects here. They certainly dare not enter the city now and create chaos!
“With their cultivation, it was already extremely difficult for them to retract the Cave Heaven Treasure. Right now, they definitely don’t have the strength to maneuver a Cave Heaven World for escape unless they have someone covertly assisting them. Otherwise, they surely can’t escape this area!”
“Do you think those two might have struck a deal with some Primordial Spirit Cultivator by offering an opportunity for becoming an immortal, and then had that cultivator conceal them and take them away?”
“Hiss…”
This suggestion made the rest of the Primordial Spirit Realm Cultivators all draw in a breath of cool air.
Soon, many cultivators who had previously encountered Qin Feng greatly regretted not having thought of this point. Otherwise, why would they need to exhaust themselves searching here?
…….
“Everyone, come here and don’t wander off!”
Ahead, the Purple Mansion Sword Cultivator stood to the side, calling out to everyone, instructing them to stand in a secluded corner of the square.
Nearby were also many cultivators from various sects, seemingly from smaller sects with comparable strength.
These sects might have one or two immortals presiding over them, not very powerful, and so White Bone City didn’t pull too many resources from these sectsectsects, as long as the minor and small sects could provide a large number of lower-level disciples, that would suffice, whether it was for large battlefields or for stationing in various places to guard the already occupied territories, many hands were necessary.
This was why White Bone City was mobilizing manpower and resources on a large scale from the Northern Domain.
After the team was properly arranged under the guidance of a cultivator from the City Lord Mansion, the Purple Mansion Cultivator saw some disciples looking around—some faces filled with excitement, some with brows deeply furrowed and solemn expressions, some appearing calm but revealing a touch of impatience inadvertently.
He knew that these disciples were somewhat unsettled.
In fact, not only the disciples were unsettled, even he felt somewhat anxious.
After all, this was an expedition to a high-rank world fraught with dangers, not something that could be influenced merely by his presence as a minor Purple Mansion Cultivator.
Moreover, looking at the personnel from the major sects gathered in the square, he could increasingly feel how inconspicuous the cultivators from his own small sect were.
These disciples would be insignificant on the battlefield of a high-rank world!
However, he thought so, but he couldn’t speak thus.
Especially in front of his disciples, he needed to project a composed demeanor; otherwise, if even he were to panic, what would his disciples do?
“You all are the carefully selected disciples of our sect, and this opportunity to join White Bone City in invading an otherworld is a once-in-a-millennium chance.”
The Purple Mansion Sword Cultivator encouraged his disciples: “That world is a high-rank world, filled with countless opportunities and a cultivation system significantly different from ours. Seizing these opportunities, you could rapidly advance your cultivation and leap to become Great Cultivators envied by others.
Think about it, while others still follow the routine cultivation in the Cultivation World, you could enter an exotic realm, plunder resources, and hone your cultivation through warfare. When you return to Biluo after winning this battle, you’ll find that cultivators who were once at higher realms than you might have been left far behind by you.
This is the greatest benefit of an expedition!
Otherwise, why would so many cultivators yearn to venture into the starry sky, the Void Ten Thousand Realms are so tumultuous, and wars have been unceasing for years!”
The elder paused for a moment, then continued, “We are Sword Cultivators, different from other cultivators. Elixir Cultivators refine elixirs to prove their Dao, Artifact Cultivators refine tools for their cultivation, Talisman Cultivators spend their days studying Heavenly Dao Runes, Array Repairers immerse themselves in the rules of arrays, orthodox cultivators emphasize Qi Refinement for longevity and a carefree life beyond the world, but we are different!”
He raised his arm and proclaimed, “We are Sword Cultivators!
Sword Cultivators were born during the crisis of the Human Clan, born on the battlefield amidst life-and-death struggles!
Thus, we Sword Cultivators are bred for battle, to slay and fight, to take to the field and kill our enemies, for this is our mission!
The battlefield is where we should be, not holed up all day in the Sect, staying in Biluo, fighting over trivial matters with other Sects.
A true man should wield his sword to kill enemies, to expand the territories for our Biluo and seize resources!”
These words stirred the blood of over a thousand Sword Cultivators, raising their spirits so high that they could hardly resist drawing their swords and cheering to vent their excitement!
Watching the disciples whose spirits had been roused, the Purple Mansion Elder nodded slightly and then continued, “However, you must not take this lightly!
Although it is just a High Rank world, and incomparable to our Biluo in terms of level, there are still countless strong adversaries there. Since your cultivation is not high yet, never overestimate your capabilities, always act prudently, and follow orders. Otherwise, once left isolated without support, you’ll have to rely solely on your own abilities to survive, which is very dangerous!
Our campaign to the Exotic Realm World is for the development of Biluo and also for your own opportunities. Don’t end up sacrificing your lives before gaining much benefit!”
This Purple Mansion Sword Cultivator was clearly an Elder adept at imparting teachings within the Sect, otherwise he wouldn’t have earnestly admonished them so patiently.
Qin Feng and Li Miaozhen, bearing their patience, listened to him for a long while. To avoid drawing attention, they had to feign excitement and jump about like the other disciples, which they found embarrassingly childish!
They frequently looked around, trying to spot the figure of the Gui Ling Ancestor, and also to see if they could leave the group and sneak into the city.
Otherwise, they really wouldn’t want to actually follow the group to the Exotic Realm World to battle for the Ten Directions Ghost City!
Unfortunately, as more and more Cultivators from various Sects gathered within the city, each in their Sect’s attire, it wasn’t possible to knock someone out and change into their clothes under the watchful eyes of so many, so they never got a chance to slip away.
Qin Feng sighed softly, turned to Li Miaozhen, and said helplessly, “Senior Sister, it looks like we might really end up going to the Exotic Realm this time. If we get on the battlefield, don’t be impulsive. Both of us are just Qi Refining Realm Small Cultivators now; don’t get carried away and kill a Demigod with a single strike!”
“Don’t worry!”
Li Miaozhen was unfazed by entering the Exotic Realm World, instead excited by the thought of battling. She subconsciously reached for her waist and then realized she had changed her attire; the White Tiger Saber wasn’t on her waist, but rather, she carried a Spiritual Artifact Level Flying Sword on her back!
She restrained her thoughts and comforted Qin Feng, “Don’t worry. When the time comes, we’ll find an opportunity to slip away, and then we can have a good fight with the strong ones from that world.”
“…”
Qin Feng twitched his lips, quite admiring Li Miaozhen’s ability to misinterpret the intention of his words!
It seemed that his Senior Sister really had issues with her nature, to think that everything could be resolved through fighting.
He sighed inwardly before asking, “By the way, Senior Sister, I was too busy running previously and didn’t ask. After you arrived in the Northern Domain with the Gui Ling Master, did the Master instruct you about anything?”
Regarding this, Qin Feng had to get a clear answer because even he could see there was something off with Li Miaozhen’s Daoist Heart. Given the Dao Cultivation of the Gui Ling Ancestor, it would be impossible not to notice.
Since the Gui Ling Ancestor clearly knew her state was not right yet dared to let her roam free, he must have made some arrangements.
“If you hadn’t asked, I almost forgot!”
Li Miaozhen slapped her forehead, then pulled out a Storage Magical Treasure from her bosom and threw it to Qin Feng, “Here, this is what the Grandmaster asked me to give you.”
“For me?”
Qin Feng was taken aback, initially thinking the Gui Ling Master would have instructed Li Miaozhen on some matter, or given her some mind-stabilizing Elixir Pills or Spiritual Treasures, but unexpectedly, the Master had Li Miaozhen bring him a Storage Magical Treasure.
However, he did not inquire further and quickly stored the bracelet within his sleeve.
Li Miaozhen might not care about these details, but he differed, with so many Cultivators around, it would be suspicious if two Qi Refining Realm Small Cultivators were seen casually handling a Storage Magical Treasure.
“Hmph, the Grandmaster really favors you, not giving me some treasures when I came, and even having me bring something to you.”
Li Miaozhen huffed discontentedly, then leaned in curiously and said, “Open it and see; what kind of wonderful item is it?”
“Sure!”
Qin Feng didn’t avoid her; he directly channeled his True Yuan into the Storage Magical Treasure, refining the bracelet shortly after. He then probed it with his Divine Sense and discovered that it contained only a lonely Jade Scroll, nothing else!
“Eh?”
Seeing this, Qin Feng couldn’t help but feel puzzled, “The Grandmaster didn’t grant any life-saving treasure, nor escape equipment, not even a single Miracle Medicine; why did the Master just have Senior Sister bring such a Jade Scroll?
Could it potentially be some Peerless Secret Technique?”
At that thought, Qin Feng became excited. A Technique given by the Gui Ling Ancestor would not be anything simple.
Li Miaozhen, hearing this, grew even more thrilled, “Any Technique gifted by the Gui Ling Master must be a rare Mysterious Technique; quickly take it out and see if I can cultivate it too.”
Her nature was battle-hungry, and she had always been highly interested in various incredible War Skills and Secret Techniques.
Although the Gui Ling Ancestor hadn’t directly given the Technique to her, since it wasn’t avoided but given to Qin Feng instead, she could still learn from Qin Feng. If it really didn’t suit her Cultivation path, it wouldn’t matter if she didn’t practice it.
Qin Feng nodded, quickly took out the Jade Scroll, and just with a glance, his expression drastically changed!
For, written in large characters on the Jade Scroll was:
