Chapter 300: Chapter 296: Arrival of the God Monarch and Patriarch! _2

Jiang Mingda’s old silhouette formed above his mindscape, like a holographic projection, appearing by the stream, looking at everything around him.

Of course, because it was an image formed by the mind, strictly speaking, it was a hallucination in Minxin’s consciousness, so only he could see it. To outsiders, at this moment, he seemed to be looking at the air.

"What’s the result?" Jiang Mingda asked nervously.

"Elder, we’ve caught the Water Ghost!" Minxin, abandoning his previous caution, spoke nonchalantly.

Jiang Mingda’s pupils contracted, he asked, "Did a God Monarch take action? What’s the cultivation level of the Water Ghost deputy hall master?"

Upon hearing this, Minxin’s calm expression collapsed and he said angrily, "Just past the sacrificial wine late stage, still only three to five years after the breakthrough!"

Jiang Mingda was taken aback for a moment, then looked at Minxin with a weird expression, praising, "You are truly impressive, brother. I’ve been working hard for half a year and saw only one divine intervention. You even managed to get a God Monarch from our sect to capture a disciple of this cultivation level, I admire you!"

"It won’t be long before you ascend, brother. When you advance to the inner sect and achieve the Perfected Realm, don’t forget your senior brother!"

"You!" Minxin, his face full of anger, was so annoyed by Jiang Mingda’s sarcasm. He glared at Jiang Mingda and said, "Brother Jiang, without me, you would still be living in fear. If you don’t want to thank me, fine, but you don’t have to be so sarcastic!"

"Hmph!" Upon mentioning this, Jiang Mingda merely snorted coldly and changed the subject, "Who from the sect came this time?"

"Not sure. Brother Motong said it belonged to the Hidden Faction, and strictly forbade asking its origin." Seeing Minxin’s lingering fear, he suddenly remembered something and added, "But I think Brother Motong is likely an inner sect disciple from a big family. We may flatter him more in the future."

"Hmm, as if I needed your reminder. Ever since I saw the five Immortal Children of the Five Ghosts God King, I realized it. After all, Brother Motong had several little ghosts before, clearly the direct lineage. By the way, which Hidden Faction are you talking about?"

"..."

The two of them talked for a long time. Their relationship was somewhat complex.

They were forced to be colleagues for a hundred years, and they had some feelings at first, but Minxin’s betrayal ruined everything. But now, they couldn’t entirely hate each other, although there were some lingering problems.

A hundred years of intertwined love and hatred. Is this what they mean by love-hate relationships?

...

After Wang Zijia made sure he wasn’t being followed, he wandered around for a while before quietly returning to the Biyi Court. He entered the underground base and its sacrificial laboratory.

He took out the Blood Jade Book. He could confirm that the aura of the Infant God he’d simulated with the Blood Jade Book, which was nearly as strong as Yue Changqing, was convincing. Of course, it was just an aura.

Even if Wang Zijia really found a fourth-grade spiritual object, and he could fully stimulate the blessing power of the book, he could only bless up to the peak of the Perfected Realm.

That’s because the False Dao True Zhuge Scripture is a top-notch spirit tool, but it’s only a third-grade instrument!

Faking it was one thing, but to fake strength blessings, it would be almost impossible to surpass the level of the instrument itself.

Besides, with his current cultivation, making blessings to the Perfected Realm required considerable effort. An Infant God of the Middle Third Boundary?

He should go to sleep. He’s more likely to achieve that by stacking up his pillows!

In his thoughts, the book before Wang Zijia had already been opened, and the painting paper of the Sleeping Beauty fell out.

"Bump!"

With a light sound, the painting paper exploded, and the unconscious Water Ghost maiden fell out.

Only then did Wang Zijia have a chance to meticulously inspect the other party. Because they were under the influence of a confusion curse, their stealth and camouflage had worn off.

In her early twenties, with a delicate face and a petite body, she was quite beautiful overall. However, she did not have much celestial aura but instead seemed a little homely.

As he looked at the other’s appearance, Wang Zijia first clicked on the identity card, and using his Dao Child privilege, a simple profile information appeared:

Name: Balofi

Spiritual Roots: Top-grade

Cultivation: Late stage of sacrificial wine

Age: 49

Affiliation: Dao Law Court, Water Spirit Lineage

Position: Second-Rank Y-class Instructor of the Water Spirit Tower.

Brief Introduction: Forty years ago, he entered the Wanyu Sect through the Grand Selection. Because of his outstanding talent, he was able to enter the Dao Law Court, following the main current of the Five Elements, a Water Spirit Lineage. His talent did not disappoint, and the public hope that in forty years, he became a late-stage cultivator of the Sacrificial Wine and is very likely to enter the Perfected Realm. He is considered one of the peak figures in the contemporary era of the Water Spirit Lineage.

Details: Requires corresponding authority to view

It turns out he’s also an ally!

The Scripture Pavilion’s formal structures among different currents differ slightly from other academies in the sect; for example, the divisional towers of the Pill Institute in different currents are mostly called the Pill Medicine Pavilion, and the Task Hall is called the Task Hall, and so on.

Every current possesses unique inheritances, and thus their teaching facilities differ, and their names generally reflect the characteristics of that current.

For example, the current under the flag of the Fu Tower is called the Fu Tower, the current under the Artifact Academy is called the Ling Tower, etc. With the unique names emanating from their own features, such as the Water Spirit Tower of the Water Spirit Lineage.

After closely examining the basic information for a while and gaining a general understanding, Wang Zijia’s mana fluctuated, and a glimmer of Demon Seeding Light materialized.

To be on the safe side, Wang Zijia also pulled out a whiff of a Sinners’ Aura, using it as a medium, and threw it into his mouth.

In just a moment, Wang Zijia had easily completed the Demon Seeding.

A flicker of his mind and the Blood Red Jade Album moved Wang Zijia into the Sea of Consciousness.

Along with the emergence of many of his Weights, Wang Zijia expertly found the Control Weights of the Bone Soul Sect: The Devil’s Oath, and the stealth strategy of the Ghost Spirit, the Demon Soul Probe.

But, this Demon Soul Probe is a bit different than before.

Weight: Demon Soul Probe (Remnants)

Belongs to: Enhanced Curse

Status: Activated (Consumed Once)

Value: 3

Introduction: It’s a surveillance method left by the Bone Soul Demon Cultivator, which was activated before death, completed the final information transmission, and currently has no significant use.

Looking at this Weight, Wang Zijia was nearly certain that the Ghost Spirit Hall Master, who had been prepared by Wang Zijia to face a tough battle, had successfully played out his GG (Good Game) in the previous ambush incident, and had prematurely announced his withdrawal.

Out of caution, Wang Zijia still exchanged these two Weights first, then inspected the many weights of the other party. After confirming there were no other control means, he started arranging the information.

However, as he organized, Wang Zijia’s eyebrows furrowed in noticing a severe problem.

Weight: Ice Spirit Demon Soul Method

Level: Second-Grade High-Level Technique

Progress: Proficient

Value: 45387

Introduction: A high-quality Spell Inheritance of the Bone Soul Sect, mastering spirit manipulation, creating an icy soul spiritual body, it’s an alternative summoning technique. It also has a slight advantage in enhancing the breakthrough from the Perfected Realm to the Infant God Realm. It’s a sub-Inheritance of the Bone Soul Sect’s core fourth-grade inheritance, the "Demon Soul Chapter".

Looking at the core method the other party has cultivated, Wang Zijia’s eyebrows furrowed. This alone has basically determined that this woman’s identity is different from ordinary secret agents. In Wang Zijia’s view, this marked her as someone who could not be won over by regular methods.

As for why... A spy with Bone Soul Sect’s inheritance and one without it are completely different concepts.

As for Minxin and the others, they were more like Wanyu Sect students controlled by the Bone Soul Sect, rather than Bone Soul Sect spies.

Because whether it’s their inheritance or their worldviews, they were all shaped by the Wanyu Sect. For these people, Wang Zijia believed he could win them over. Even if it meant using them as expendable pawns, it would still be a reasonable use of resources.

However, this Balofi in front of him was clearly a secret agent carefully cultivated by the Bone Soul Sect. He was likely personally tutored by the Ghost Spirit as well. Apart from growing up in the Wanyu Sect, she probably had no chance to commit terrible massacres with the Devil Cultivators, and the rest of her didn’t have any real connection to the Wanyu Sect.

It was like in his Previous Life, there was a fundamental difference between a national who defected under control, and a foreign spy who infiltrated and disguised as a national.

And beneath these fundamental differences, their education, their shaping of worldviews, and the degree of importance attached to them were completely different.

He wasn’t planning on using regular methods to win over people like this.

Amid his thoughts, he’d already finished organizing the information and exchanged her curse.

"Um!"

Just as Wang Zijia was exiting her Sea of Consciousness, Balofi, who was in front of him, let out a soft groan and slowly opened her eyes.
