Chapter 591: 500 Inventory Harvest_1

A vast and boundless expanse of bluegrass plains, from the depths of the plains there came a thunderous roar as a streak of silver light shot up into the sky, highly conspicuous.

Deep within the grasslands, Huo Tianxing stood high in the air, his face slightly pale, looking as if he had severely depleted his mana.

He had set up a Sword Formation and slain three Soul Transformation Cultivators, inflicting heavy injuries on Yin Hao.

A golden Escape Light flew over, and after a short while, the Escape Light stopped, revealing a tall young man in gold attire.

The young man in gold had several fine bloodstains on his body and his clothes were torn with several large holes, he appeared somewhat disheveled.

"Junior Brother Lin, are you alright?"

Huo Tianxing asked.

"I’m fine, but it’s a pity about Junior Brother Liu and Taoist Friend Cha, they were slain by the Soul Transformation Cultivators of the Tianyuan Tribe. Elder Brother Huo, where is Yin Hao?"

The young man in gold asked.

"He escaped, he has already been gravely injured by me. If I were him, I would hurry back to the Realm of the Spiritual Pivot,"

Huo Tianxing said.

"After this battle, the majority of the Tianyuan Tribe’s Soul Transformation Cultivators are dead or injured, and they no longer have the strength to resist,"

the young man in gold said.

Two Escape Lights flew over, revealing the figures of Shen Long and a man in red robes.

Shen Long was drenched in blood, and his body bore many spots where white bone could be seen, his appearance suggested he was seriously wounded.

He had merged with the Thunder Roc to deal with Bian Xiao and the Thunderwing Flame Lion, and both he and the Thunder Roc were injured as well.

This battle made Shen Long realize how difficult the Soul Transformation Cultivators of the Realm of the Spiritual Pivot were to deal with.

"Taoist Friend Shen, you killed those two Soul Transformation Cultivators and the fifth-order Ice Flood Dragon?"

the young man in gold asked in amazement.

In a one-on-one situation, Shen Long killing Bian Xiao was impressive. Adding Yin Shi and the fifth-order Ice Flood Dragon, Shen Long faced greater pressure yet he managed to annihilate the enemies completely.

"I obtained an Immortal Extinguishing Bead in an ancient cultivator’s cave many years ago, and with the help of this treasure, I was able to slay them,"

Shen Long explained.

The Immortal Extinguishing Bead is a one-time-use treasure, capable of killing Soul Transformation Cultivators without difficulty, but the difficulty of refining the Immortal Extinguishing Bead is high, the materials rare, and only the Realm of the Spiritual Pivot would have such a thing.

"An ancient cultivator’s cave! Immortal Extinguishing Bead? Taoist Friend Shen, did you also acquire the Art of Transformation you practice from that ancient cultivator’s cave?"

Huo Tianxing asked.

"Indeed! This technique is called the Giant Ape True Scripture, but unfortunately, it’s incomplete,"

Shen Long said with a tone of regret.

He was very aware that Huo Tianxing and the others would definitely be suspicious of him, as the Art of Transformation Shen Long performed was too impressive to be believed as an ordinary technique.

He did not dare to claim it came from the Seven Stars True Monarch, since that would involve Cai Lei.

"Giant Ape True Scripture?"

Huo Tianxing said, half-believing and half-doubting.

"Taoist Friend Huo, have all the Tianyuan Tribe’s Soul Transformation Cultivators from The Lower Realm died?"

Shen Long changed the subject.

"No, both Yin Hao and Yin Yue escaped, and they both suffered heavy injuries. Taoist Friend Cha and Junior Brother Liu were killed. Taoist Friend Shen, we are going to head to the Netherworld, will you come with us to the Netherworld or stay here?"

Huo Tianxing asked.

"My injuries are quite severe, and the Netherworld is not suitable for me to heal; you all go ahead. I hope you can return soon! This place still needs you to take charge,"

Shen Long said.

Cai Lei also had contingency plans in the Netherworld; Shen Long naturally could not go and had to clear himself of suspicion. He really was seriously injured and needed to heal.

"Alright then! You stay here to recover, keep an eye out for the movements of Yin Hao and the other Soul Transformation Cultivators. If you find their traces, don’t make a fuss, wait until we return to notify us,"

Huo Tianxing said.

"Taoist Friend Huo, there are quite a few treasures in the Tianyuan Mountain Range. Why not head there before going to the Netherworld?"

Shen Long suggested.

"What good things could there possibly be in The Lower Realm? With so many of their Soul Transformation Cultivators killed in battle, the people of the Tianyuan Mountain Range must have scattered with their treasures; it’s not necessary. We have important matters to attend to,"

Huo Tianxing said dismissively.

Shen Long nodded, silently watching the three of them leave.

He turned into an Escape Light and broke through the sky, leaving the area.

······

In the Realm of the Spiritual Pivot, at the Tianyuan Mountain Range.

In a secluded manor, Yin Hao and Yin Yue stood before Bian Ji, reporting to her.

Yin Hao’s left arm was missing, and Yin Yue’s body was covered in blood, both of them looking haggard as if they were seriously injured.

"You suffered a defeat and immediately used the Tianyuan Talisman to come back? Is this how you handle matters?"

Bian Ji said with a gloomy expression.

The Tianyuan Talisman was a fifth-grade Talisman. Crushing this talisman, the Ascendant Platform of the Tianyuan Tribe could summon Yin Hao and Yin Yue back to the Realm of the Spiritual Pivot.

"We killed a disciple of the Big Dipper Pavilion and captured his Nascent Soul for a Soul Search, discovering that they are also looking for Cai Lei’s whereabouts. They came from the Netherworld, having heard that the Netherworld Cave Heaven has a Spirit Realm Cultivator’s Zouhua Cave, which is very likely to be Cai Lei."

Yin Hao said.

"We did not dare return to the Tianyuan Mountain Range, fearing that cultivators from the Big Dipper Pavilion might pursue us. Our lives are not important; we were just worried that the news wouldn’t make it back."

Yin Yue added.

In truth, they were afraid to die, and had immediately used the Tianyuan Talisman to be summoned back to the Realm of the Spiritual Pivot by the Tianyuan Tribe’s Ascendant Platform.

"Yes! Huo Tianxing’s Seven Stars Sword Scripture is the foundational art of the Big Dipper Pavilion, we are no match for it, escaping was already a great fortune."

Yin Hao said.

Huo Tianxing possessed vast Divine Skills; Yin Hao’s defeat to Huo Tianxing did not indicate incompetence.

"Seven Stars Sword Scripture!"

Bian Ji’s expression softened a bit, as only the successor of the Big Dipper Pavilion could cultivate this art, and it was already a stroke of luck that Yin Hao was able to escape.

"Do you know the coordinates of the Netherworld?"

Bian Ji asked.

"These are the coordinates of the Netherworld. It is rumored that Master Guixu has obtained the treasures of a Spirit Realm Cultivator’s Zouhua Cave; finding Master Guixu should lead us to that treasure."

Yin Hao took out a golden Jade Slip and handed it to Bian Ji.

"Understood, go back and heal. I will send someone else to the Lower Realm."

Bian Ji instructed.

"Yes, Elder Bian."

Yin Hao and Yin Yue let out a sigh of relief, readily agreed, and retreated.

······

In the Tianyuan Realm, within a hidden cavern, an Iron Tail Scorpion lay in a corner.

Shen Long sat on the ground with his eyes slightly closed.

An hour later, he opened his eyes and exhaled a long breath of foul air.

"This injury is not light; it will need at least forty to fifty years of recuperation."

Shen Long murmured to himself.

He took out a golden Storage Bracelet, flicked his wrist, and a swathe of golden light flashed; suddenly, there was a large pile of items on the ground.

More than four million Spirit Stones, five bottles of Elixir, three Sky-Reaching Spiritual Treasures, a batch of Monster Beasts Materials, and some Jade Slips; he opened a yellow Jade Box, which contained three yellow Demon Cores the size of chicken eggs, belonging to a fifth-grade initial stage Iron Tail Scorpion.

Bian Xiao was a Spirit Controller, had killed many fifth-grade Monster Beasts, and possessed numerous fifth-grade Monster Beast Demon Cores.

"Come over here!"

Shen Long instructed.

The Iron Tail Scorpion flew over and landed in front of Shen Long.

Shen Long picked up a yellow Demon Core and a five-thousand-year-old Thought Cutting Grass, throwing them into the Iron Tail Scorpion’s mouth.

"Thank you, Master!"

The Iron Tail Scorpion thanked him and returned to the corner.

Shen Long carefully counted and found there were a total of nine fifth-grade Demon Cores; four with the Fire Attribute, three with the Earth Attribute, and two with the Ice Attribute.
