Chapter 244: Various Parties
A moment later.
"I have not failed my mission!"
Song Ningjing used the 'Mirror Light Technique' to open a passage through the Crystal Essence Divine Light Barrier.
She opened her eyes and saw Fang Xing teasing a palm-sized Treasure-seeking Rat in his hand.
Beasts inherently have stronger constitutions than cultivators. After being fed a few third-rank pills, the Treasure-seeking Rat's wounds had healed, though its yellow fur still needed time to grow back, making it look bald in patches.
Suddenly, the little rat's eyes widened, transforming into a streak of yellow light as it clung to a massive sky-blue stalactite, refusing to let go.
"Ten Thousand Year Milkstone!"
Butterfly Buds Lady gazed at the sky-blue stalactite, seeing the liquid flowing continuously at its core, and murmured.
"The Ten Thousand Year Milkstone can only be harvested using tools made of Ice Jade... I have prepared several sets specifically for this purpose."
Song Ningjing tapped her storage pouch, and a set of jade flasks, jade tablets, and jade spoons floated up.
These jade tools were different from ordinary jade flasks, not only translucent but also exuding a faint coldness.
Clearly, she had prepared thoroughly for this trip.
Fang Xing nodded and let Song Ningjing take charge.
The woman took out an Ice Jade spirit tool, made a hand seal, and recited a few incantations. The 'Azure Jade Ruler' penetrated the stalactite, continuously extracting the Ten Thousand Year Milkstone and sealing it into Ice Jade flasks.
In the end, she filled nine and a half flasks.
After completing this, Song Ningjing deliberately cast a spell to gradually restore the Crystal Essence Divine Light Barrier beside the stalactite.
Cultivators from both the righteous and demonic paths generally try to preserve the environment after harvesting spiritual substances, for future use.
Of course, if a fierce battle breaks out, they might ignore everything, even destroying a Nine-Origin Incarnation Vine if necessary!
However, it was said that the precious vine was protected by countless layers of restrictions. Only a Great True Monarch could have a slight chance of damaging it.
"Lady, I only need one flask of 'Ten Thousand Year Milkstone.' Since the other three of you don't want your shares, please allow Brother Wind to take them..."
Song Ningjing looked at Fang Xing, her expression tinged with apprehension.
Fang Xing thought for a moment and understood.
With the fourth-rank spiritual substance now in hand, she was afraid he might take everything, including her share.
Frankly speaking... with his current display of late Core Formation realm, the four first-stage Core Formation female cultivators were indeed at his mercy.
Moreover, after finding the Ten Thousand Year Milkstone, this Song family sword cultivator had little value left.
"Haha, then this Ascendant won't be courteous."
Fang Xing waved his sleeve, collecting the eight and a half flasks of 'Ten Thousand Year Milkstone,' feeling a surge of joy.
With these, his cultivation after Core Formation would progress rapidly.
To be honest, since he condensed his Golden Core, he hadn't seriously cultivated much.
The last time was when he used the power of dual cultivation with Butterfly Buds Lady, which was indeed effective, equivalent to taking ten to eight third-rank pills.
But he was still some distance from the peak of the first-stage Core Formation.
Seeing him calmly take the spiritual substance, the four women secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Alright, now that this is done, let's head to the Central Region as soon as possible."
Fang Xing stroked the Treasure-seeking Rat in his hand: "If there are any spiritual substances that excite this rat along the way, we can take a slight detour..."
...
In a certain area of the Lustrous Blessing Land.
Countless Venomous Insects blanketed the sky like dark clouds, suddenly descending.
Several beams of mystic artifact light, like ships in a storm, were instantly 'swallowed' by the dark clouds.
Ik wilde Chinese:
This person was precisely Venom God Son. The Ten Tribulation Toad was his life-bound venomous insect, extremely formidable.
It had already been cultivated to the peak of the third rank, just one step away from becoming a near fourth-rank venomous insect.
Once his life-bound venomous insect reached the near fourth-rank level, it would definitely increase his chances of breaking through to the Primordial Spirit realm by one or two percent!
This was the most orthodox path to the Primordial Spirit realm in the Ten Thousand Toad Stronghold.
At this moment, he only needed to go to a certain perilous place in the Lustrous Blessing Land to smoothly retrieve the foundation laid by his sect, to upgrade his life-bound venomous insect.
"Then, by seizing a Divine Infancy Fruit and refining it into a Divine Infancy Pill, combined with a near fourth-rank life-bound venomous insect, the probability of condensing an infant will definitely exceed fifty percent... I, the seat of this, will surely become a Nascent Soul True Monarch in the future."
Venom God Son was lost in his reverie when his body suddenly emitted several piercing screams.
His expression turned grim, and he suddenly opened his mouth, vomiting out three white silkworm-like venomous insects.
But now, these venomous insects were already dead.
"Dead? The three from the Hua Family are all useless!"
"I even had them bring a third-rank Treasure-seeking Rat..."
Venom God Son's expression became extremely ugly.
A third-rank Treasure-seeking Rat would be like a tiger with wings in the Lustrous Blessing Land.
He had precisely seen this advantage, which is why he had the Hua Family's second son expend effort to cultivate the Treasure-seeking Rat and bring it in for him.
In order to facilitate control after changing owners, he even had them create a Spirit Beast Soul Plate.
Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a complete fiasco...
Although the Demon Dao big shots liked to have their underlings spend all their wealth to cultivate Spirit Beasts, even if they ended up losing, the unlucky ones were still the underlings.
But he just felt inexplicably annoyed.
"Dare to kill my people and steal my Spirit Beast?"
The Venom God Son coldly chuckled several times, "The one who killed those three wastes must be an Advanced Core Formation Cultivator, and not just an ordinary one... This trip will definitely lead to the Divine Infant Cliff, where I planted the Ten Thousand Mile Fragrance Toad on those three wastes. As long as they are within a hundred li, my Fragrance-seeking Toad will surely be able to catch their traces!"
...
In the wilderness.
After Fang Xing's true self sent off the Ten Thousand Law Ghost Infant, he didn't rush on his journey.
After all, there were also many opportunities on the Western Desert side.
Leaving the task of seizing the Divine Infant Fruit from the Divine Infant Cliff to his cultivation doppelganger, he could first scour the spiritual objects on this side.
'Although I have the Ten Thousand Year Milkstone, the quantity is enough to cultivate up to the Mid-stage Core Formation at most...'
'To refine a large amount of Tier 3 pills, the main raw materials still need to come from the Lustrous Blessing Land...'
The Lustrous Blessing Land opens once every five hundred years, which means that even if some seeds were casually scattered the last time, there would now be five hundred years' worth of spiritual herbs!
Not to mention, the dense spiritual energy within the blessed land, and the spiritual herbs growing on special spirit veins may have the potency of twenty years after just ten years of cultivation.
"Hmm? Battle aura fluctuations?"
He touched his forehead, turned, and arrived at a sand dune.
In the sand dune, a round-topped palace stood, half of it submerged in the sand.
The palace walls were still flashing with various rune restrictions, indicating that the internal restrictions had not been breached.
And at the palace entrance, there were two Yellow and Black Lion Puppets, seemingly originally used for guarding the residence.
At this moment, their eyes were like two huge rubies, suddenly coming to life, and they were fighting fiercely with two Core Formation Cultivators.
"As expected of the Lustrous Blessing Land... You can stumble upon ancient ruins just by taking a few steps."
"Thanks to nature's gift!"
Fang Xing stopped, and his figure fell, "Both of you... This treasure is fated for me!"
"Damn, you're even more demonic than us Demon Dao, and you talk about fate?"
One of the Core Formation Cultivators had a cold expression and casually pointed.
A High-grade Mystic Artifact-level flying sword emitted a chilling sword light, drawing a dozen-zhang-long green rainbow that slashed across Fang Xing's chest.
Sizzle!
The sword blade was directly deflected by a layer of golden light on his skin.
Fang Xing's large hand spread out, and the Five Fingers Mountain emerged, grabbing the High-grade Mystic Artifact-level flying sword in his hand.
No matter how sharp this flying sword was, in his hand, it was like a venomous snake whose seven-inch had been seized, unable to move even a hair.
Snap!
He grabbed the sword hilt and blade, applying a little force.
With a crisp sound, this High-grade Mystic Artifact-level flying sword broke directly into two pieces!
At this moment, a talisman appeared behind him, transforming into countless azure flying needles that fell on his back, creating a tinkling sound like rain on banana leaves.
This was the other Core Formation Cultivator taking the opportunity to attack, using a needle-shaped mystic treasure.
But at this moment, it couldn't harm Fang Xing at all.
"Such a formidable Body Refiner, Senior indeed has a connection with this treasure!"
The two Core Formation Cultivators exchanged glances and fled in separate directions, one of them dividing into numerous black shadows, while the other grew a pair of black wings, able to activate layer upon layer of azure gale wind, making their escape speed extremely astonishing.
"Too weak! Too weak!"
Fang Xing casually waved his palm, and the Heaven Shield Hand emerged, covering the sky and blocking the earth.
Slap!
Like swatting flies, the two Core Formation Cultivators exploded on the spot, turning into countless blood and fragments that fell.
"Uninteresting!"
Fang Xing shook his head and looked at the two puppet lions.
"Roar!"
As lifeless puppets, these two Yellow and Black Lion Puppets showed no fear and pounced forward.
One of them opened its huge mouth, biting Fang Xing's head.
Snap!
Several metal teeth fell out, and Fang Xing grabbed the lion's jaws, prying them apart with force.
This puppet giant lion's head was torn apart by his bare hands, splitting into two halves.
Fang Xing's fingers closed, then transformed into a fist, slamming into the other lion's head.
Snap!
This puppet lion's entire body shook, then stopped in its tracks, its huge ruby eyes dimming completely.
It had been completely stunned by Fang Xing's punch, which shattered all its critical components...
Fang Xing looked at the palace guarded by the two puppet lions, rubbed his hands, and walked in.
Not long after, various rumbling sounds echoed from within.
A moment later.
A streak of pitch-black light flew over, revealing a man wearing the Ten Thousand Phenomena Sect's robe.
His face was thin, and his eyebrows were long, "Are both Sword and Blade Twin Slaves dead?"
At this time, he also saw the palace.
Although the palace's restrictions could block divine sense probing, he could confirm that the killer of the Ten Thousand Phenomena Sect's two Core Formation Cultivators was inside!
