Chapter 824: Chapter 278: The Path of Dao! _2
The wolf pack had to leave the deer herd they were about to capture and charge at the cow cavalry.
The ghost bulls roared deeply, their hooves like thunder, forming a wedge formation with Sun Lingtong as the spearhead, increasing their speed.
At the moment of imminent collision, the ghost bulls lowered their heads, aiming their horns forward, while the cavalry raised their long spears.
Bang! Bang! Bang…
Each Green Corpse Wolf was knocked directly into pieces, scattered wildly.
The wolf pack's formation was instantly torn apart; the cow cavalry was simply unstoppable!
In the blink of an eye, the wolf pack was almost completely annihilated, leaving only the severely injured Wolf King.
The Wolf King howled in grief, broke free but did not retaliate, turning around to flee instead.
“Hahaha, chase!” Sun Lingtong shouted.
The cow cavalry pursued relentlessly.
But the Wolf King, though severely injured, still maintained good speed. As it ran away, it performed ghost techniques with its tail tucked between its legs, moving at a speed that surprised even Sun Lingtong.
“Alas, such a pity for a Wolf King!” Ultimately, Sun Lingtong could only sigh in regret for not being able to catch up.
Sun Lingtong's initial battle yielded considerable gains.
Sun Ning and the others were quite satisfied with the cow cavalry's combat power, but they also identified a drawback: the cow cavalry, as heavy cavalry, had a strong charge with great force, yet over extended distances, the charge speed sharply decreased, and the combat power would drop significantly.
Having tested the cow cavalry's combat power, Sun Lingtong continued on his journey.
His destination was none other than Swamp Valley!
Although Meng Yaoyin did not provide Ning Zhuo with a specific method, she mentioned a key figure, the Grey Bone Elder.
Since the opponent was said to be capable of divination, coupled with the previous contact with Luo Si and Sun Lingtong, Sun Ning and the others wanted to visit him first, seeking a solution.
White Paper Immortal City.
Zhangyang Institute.
Sun Tiesheng was led into a small courtyard by a Paperman Puppet.
“This junior pays respects to Lord Li!” Sun Tiesheng respectfully saluted Li Xiangshang.
Then, he greeted the cultivator sitting on the side: “Dean Zhao.”
Dean Zhao, who was in charge of Zhangyang Institute, smiled at Sun Tiesheng, then pointed at him, introducing him to Li Xiangshang: “Lord Li, this Sun Tiesheng is by far the most promising talent in our Zhangyang Institute currently.”
“Your eye for talent is impressive; you've chosen him perfectly!”
Li Xiangshang nodded, his face mostly hidden under a hat, making it hard to discern his specific expression.
Sun Tiesheng's heart raced slightly after hearing this, “Could this mean my opportunity has arrived?!”
Li Xiangshang first silently studied Sun Tiesheng.
He came to Zhangyang Institute to gather the data of all members and make a careful selection.
In the end, he chose Sun Tiesheng.
Li Xiangshang took out a treasure from his storage bag, displaying it to the other two present.
Sun Tiesheng immediately focused his gaze, feeling a surge of excitement.
The treasure was as small as a palm, resembling a bird's nest. Each gold thread shone with a five-colored halo, and deep inside the nest was a bright red object, like a little heart or a seed.
The entire golden silk bird's nest emanated a demonic aura.
Li Xiangshang introduced, “As you can see, this is a Golden Nest Demon Seed, possessing the Golden Swallow Bloodline.”
“Sun Tiesheng, if you incorporate the demon seed according to the secret technique, you'll not only greatly increase your Yang Energy but also gain Golden Swallow demon blood!”
“By doing so, your chance to obtain the Golden Swallow Fork will be at least seventy percent.”
Dean Zhao, delighted, clapped and laughed, “Great, Sun Tiesheng, your luck is truly good to receive such support, why don't you quickly accept it?”
Sun Tiesheng's expression changed drastically, showing cold indifference, his ardor vanished, replaced by a chilling sensation.
He slowly shook his head and, with a heavy spirit, said, “I cannot accept this offer.”
Li Xiangshang hummed in surprise, not expecting Sun Tiesheng's response, feeling puzzled.
Dean Zhao let out a surprised sound, about to speak in persuasion, but Sun Tiesheng preemptively blocked his words, saluting directly, “If that is the only method, I cannot accept it, so I bid farewell.”
With that, he glanced at Li Xiangshang, whose face was full of confusion.
Sun Tiesheng bowed again and turned to leave.
Without looking back, he departed the room, leaving Li Xiangshang and Dean Zhao behind.
“Well…” Li Xiangshang asked Dean Zhao, “Does Sun Tiesheng have some unspeakable concern?”
Dean Zhao awkwardly smiled.
Li Xiangshang said, “Among the candidates, Sun Tiesheng was the most suitable. Why did he refuse?”
Dean Zhao replied with a bitter smile, “It's likely due to the demon seed's nature.”
Li Xiangshang exclaimed in surprise, “Why wouldn't he want it?”
Dean Zhao explained, “Lord Li, being dedicated to cultivation, may not understand the intricacies. Sun Tiesheng is a pure Human Clan member. If he absorbs a foreign demon seed, becoming half-human half-demon, it will inevitably diminish his future prospects.”
Li Xiangshang realized, “Humans are the spirit of all things! I, a pure Demon Race member, have spent almost my entire life in bitter cultivation, and it is only now that I've been appointed by our leader to take action. Indeed, I didn't grasp this before.”
“If Sun Tiesheng is unwilling, should I reconsider choosing someone else?”
“I've reviewed your list, and his cultivation level is the closest to the Golden Core Stage.”
Dean Zhao chuckled, waving his hand, “Sun Tiesheng's stance is personal and not pivotal. Lord Li, perhaps we should approach the Sun Family?”
Li Xiangshang blinked, “What do you mean?”
Dean Zhao didn't expect such a straightforward scheme would require further explanation.
Yet, due to Li Xiangshang's status, he patiently elaborated, “The Sun Family is a cultivation clan within the Immortal City, and the entire family hopes Sun Tiesheng will obtain the Golden Swallow Fork to solidify their position in the city.”
“Sun Tiesheng is supported by the Sun Family, initially coming from a low background as merely the illegitimate son of a blacksmith.”
