Chapter 276: Chapter 276: Five Ghosts Changes and Promotion

Wang Zijia quickly entered into Old Five’s Sea of Consciousness and found that a curse weight had appeared out of nowhere.

Weight: The Curse of God’s Detrimental Mutation

Classification: Curse

Value: 6547

Description: Do you think it’s easy to steal from the divine? You think you can just enjoy it all without worry? There’s always some poor guy who will end up bearing it all. Poor baby!!!

Wang Zijia: "······"

So, it’s out of luck, and it’s blaming me?

In the blink of a thought, Wang Zijia traded the weight. The collapsing body of Old Five began to recover. Along with his four older brothers, their breaths intertwined and they finally completed the ascension to the Middle Stage of the Sacrificial Wine Cultivation.

Wang Zijia did not immediately exit his Sea of Consciousness, but traded away his deformities while sorting out the information about the ghosts.

Name: Big Baby (Ghost Baby)

Cultivation: Middle Stage of [Sacrificial Wine]

Dao Cultivation: 150 years (500,000/1,000,000)

Classification: Sinister Transformation Summoning Creatures

Talent: Ghost Baby Bewitching (Fake second grade), Summoned God Child

The Five Ghosts not only completed the ascension but also gained an additional talent.

Summoned God Child: According to certain rules, it can inspire creatures that believe in it, bestowing a degree of power, or descending into the creature’s body. But first, you need to obtain a method of inspiration.

The talent probably came into being due to the consumption of the Nether Corpse. It’s somewhat related to divine spirits.

With this talent, the Five Ghosts somewhat resemble god’s child disciples. They can actually descend spirits, well, or descend souls.

······

After a long while, Wang Zijia finished dealing with all sorts of deformities left behind by the Five Ghosts and put them away. He made another round to make sure nothing was left out before floating up and leaving the underground.

He returned to the top of the mountain and saw sculptures crawling on top of each building complex. Wang Zijia floated forward, started to demon seed the living ice sculptures, traded the pollution within them, and started to repair their not-so-complicated injuries.

Wang Zijia counted. There were about ten thousand Blood Human Ice Sculptures in total. However, out of these who had survived the forceful stripping of their demonic skin by the Fox Taoist, only a little more than three thousand still lived.

The remaining six to seven thousand had silently passed away, ending their tragic lives.

Of the remaining three thousand, most were on the verge of death. Luckily, Ma Haoran’s ice seal method was good. Sealing them was equivalent to saving them.

Even Perfected Ones who had a full understanding of human bodies and even bloodline variations would find these living people challenging to treat. Treating skin injuries wasn’t hard. The challenging part was the pollution and demonic nature forcefully implanted during the skin’s growth process.

But when Wang Zijia dealt with them, trading the skin was somewhat more troublesome as it required step-by-step sculpting. The rest was much simpler. He first dealt with the pollution from Sinister Transformation in both the corpses and the living people, then gradually began to treat their injuries.

"Whoosh! Whoosh!"

About two quarters of an hour later, Wang Zijia had just classified the ice sculptures: the living ones were quickly demon-seeded and sealed to hang onto life, the dead ones had their pollution drained and were discarded to one side for later disposal.

A strong rainbow light then streaked across the sky. The Ascending Immortal Ship, trailing a huge tail of flame, rushed towards Jingchan Mountain.

"Young Master, are you alright?"

"Are you okay?"

As the ship came to a stop, Bai Qian and Xiang Feifei were the first to rush towards Wang Zijia, asking anxiously.

"Junior Brother Wang, were you hurt?" Lei Junjie floated down, asking the same question.

Wang Zijia smiled and said, "I’m alright, just a bit drained."

"I heard that a Perfected Realm big demon had appeared here? Where’s the demon?" Nong Yufei came floating down, looking at the ice sculptures all over the mountain and asked anxiously.

"Indeed, a demon dao had appeared, but I’ve already taken care of it," Wang Zijia replied with a smile.

Lei Junjie and Nong Yufei stared. They knew all those who received the Sect’s Dao Seed and the title of Dao Child were terrifying, but...a first stage Sacrificial Wine cultivator battling a Perfected Realm demon?

Wasn’t that too exaggerated?

"Junior Brother is really..." Lei Junjie was stunned for a while, not knowing what to say and trailed off.

"It’s not just my achievement. If Martial Brother Ma hadn’t risked his life to help me, I might not even likely to be alive to meet you all," Wang Zijia said with a bitter smile.

"What exactly happened? How did you end up suddenly fighting this big demon and didn’t even bring out your magic ship!" Nong Yufei looked around, furrowed his eyebrows and asked.

"First, help me stabilize the injuries of the living people. I’ll detail the specifics. This incident needs to be reported, so the Sect can decide." Wang Zijia turned around. While handling the ice sculptures, he spoke.

Upon hearing this, everyone signaled to the ship in the sky. One by one, disciples flew down to handle the ice sculptures.

Wang Zijia was soothed by everyone and took a rest to one side.

Once everyone finished their tasks and, following Wang Zijia’s guidance, went to look at the back mountain. After discovering the underground area, they all looked serious and carefully recorded everything.

Half a day later, after everyone finished thoroughly checking the ice sculptures and the whole temple, they loaded the living ice sculptures and the dead ones onto the ship. Then everyone started the journey back to Tianhong Market Square.

News of the massive event today traveled fast.

Luckily, everyone did not know that the Fox Taoist, Ye Cheng’an, was part of the Wanyu Sect, so the reputation of the Sect was not a concern.

Moreover, the scene where Wang Zijia slew the demon was witnessed by countless people, which not only gave him, but also the Sect, quite a reputation boost.

The fame of Wang Zijia, the Wanyu Sect’s Dao Child and genius, gradually spread out, but as it spread, things started to get weirder.

Especially since a True Body is a common technique for a Great Cultivator at the Infant God Stage, even though Wang Zijia didn’t even have a sub-True Body, most viewers had a lack of experience. Therefore, when the story was eventually spread, it was exaggerated into: The Dao Child struck down a big demon at the Infant God Stage, his methods were shocking!

Then, numerous versions and tales sprung up from this story, circulated through the Tianhong Territory. The massive pit formed at the foot of Jingchan Mountain even became a must-visit spot for cultivators in the Tianhong Practice World.

Absurd!

······

On returning to the Tianhong Marketplace, Wang Zijia had mostly recovered. He only got some internal injuries because of the excessive power output from using the Blood God Crystal, so it wasn’t hard to recover.

"Martial Uncle, we’ve completed the count. This time we found a total of 6,875 people frozen to death, all spiritual roots. They can be returned to the Sect to trade with the Funerary Preserving Vein, which should result in some rewards," An Xingsheng cautiously glanced at Wang Zijia and then added:

"However, because they are all ordinary people with spiritual roots, and the number is so large, whether we bring them back or not, the upper levels will most likely conduct a strict investigation. Martial Uncle...Martial Uncle Yufei...do we need to be particularly careful about anything when reporting?"
