Chapter 701: Chapter 599: Meat Taishui

Pa!

This talisman is entirely bright yellow, the cinnabar brushstrokes on it carrying an astonishing heat, clearly indicating a high level.

Remarkably, it is a High Rank ’Exorcism Talisman’!

As an old foe of the Blood Shadow Sect, the Yin God master, Fei Changqing, knew the power of the Spiritual Mirage Paper House Cave back when he was Real Master Xuanmu.

He thought of several methods to counter it.

This talisman can break the boundary between the Underworld and the mortal world, allowing him to return to Qingyu Garden.

By then, he could call for help!

After all, within Qingyu Garden, there is a Dao Foundation steward and a thousand-year Evergreen Tree!

Fei Changqing was confident that that Steward Fang could hold them off for a brief moment, allowing him to activate a secret technique, leveraging the power of the thousand-year Evergreen Tree for a short-term surge in cultivation.

Even though this would undoubtedly expose his presence, it was still better than being captured by the Blood Shadow Sect!

"Hmm? No wonder he was once a Yin God master; he has a lot of means..."

In the high sky, seeing Fei Changqing perform the ’Substitution Technique’ to escape from the encirclement of the six Paper Generals and then produce a High Rank talisman, Fang Xing couldn’t help but express admiration: "If I hadn’t come along, who knows, you might really have caused a big commotion. But the result would be the same..."

He lightly swayed his tail, and a wisp of water vapor between heaven and earth condensed, transforming into a water thread and falling with incredible speed!

Hiss!

The water thread swept across the bright yellow talisman, instantly severing the cinnabar strokes on it.

Then, it turned into a chill that seeped into Fei Changqing’s heart.

Fei Changqing shivered violently, feeling as if his soul was frozen solid, and his limbs and bones seemed encased in ice, making it impossible to exert even a trace of mana.

"Such a Dao rhythm? Which master has intervened?"

Fei Changqing’s heart sank into despair.

He couldn’t fathom why a tiny shrimp, who had only reached Qi Sensing cultivation after reincarnation, warranted such serious attention.

Six Dao Foundation Post Realm weren’t enough; there was even a Yin God master launching a sneak attack!

Isn’t this shameless?

Slash!

Amidst the fluttering garments, a figure descended in front of him.

As Fei Changqing saw who it was, he was stunned again: "Uncle Fang? You?"

Fang Xing smiled faintly, not bothering to waste words with Fei Changqing.

This kind of Yin God master, having lived for several centuries, was extremely cunning; questioning him would yield nothing.

His eyes blurred, and two beams of yellow light shot directly into Fei Changqing’s pupils.

Fei Changqing’s gaze instantly turned dazed.

"A Grandmaster-level Enchanting Soul Skill, dealing with a small Qi Sensing Realm like you... Even if you have the Yin God master’s foundation, you are nothing..."

Fang Xing smiled faintly and asked, "Who are you?"

"Real Master Xuanmu, Ye Xuanqing..."

Fei Changqing mumbled in response, sounding as if he were sleep-talking.

...

Several hours later.

Fang Xing turned to leave, and Fei Changqing at the original spot had already become an ice statue.

A gentle breeze blew by, scattering the ice statue into countless ice flakes, flying all around, ultimately dissipating...

"This Fei Changqing... no, Ye Xuanqing was indeed a hero of his time."

The night was tranquil.

While walking through the Evergreen Forest, tending to the saplings, Fang Xing recalled the information obtained from the enchanting questioning earlier.

"This Real Master Xuanmu was indeed killed by an ambush from Real Master Xi Lian..."

"Luckily, his cultivation in divine skills was astounding, allowing a wisp of Yin God to escape, thus enabling possession and rebirth..."

"Possession is a great taboo of heaven and earth. A possessed cultivator finds it difficult to cultivate original divine skills, so he planned to cultivate another cultivation technique to create the ’Water-Wood Years Pill’... If this pill succeeds, his divine skill would surpass his past life..."

"But unfortunately... he encountered me."

Fang Xing felt no remorse for killing Fei Changqing because this Yin God master was not a good person either.

His arrival at Qingyu Garden was meant to scheme against Fei Yong and even had a plan to leverage the thousand-year Evergreen Wood for cultivating an Upper Dao Foundation.

If it was just that, it would be fine, but during the questioning, Fang Xing learned that this person planned to achieve Dao Foundation and then use the ’Seize Dao, Swallow Foundation’ secret technique to devour a Dao Foundation cultivator who had forged ’Water Delicacy’ to achieve the ’Water-Wood Years’ divine skill!

"The Seize Dao, Swallow Foundation technique... is extremely popular in the Demon Path, officially banned on the Righteous Path, but who knows how many practice it secretly..."

"The reason is that the fundamental diagram of divine skills is difficult to comprehend. If one relied solely on talent and comprehension... at least half of today’s Dao Foundation Post Realm wouldn’t exist..."

"If divine skills cannot be understood, one can only devour fellow Dao Foundation to supplement one’s Dao rhythm..."

"This Real Master Xuanmu didn’t have good relationships in Qingmu Ridge and was on bad terms with several Yin God masters. He feared returning would lead to persecution, so he delayed his return, intending to at least cultivate divine skills before going back... And this is the result."

Fang Xing wasn’t interested in these affairs of love and hate.

What he truly cared about was the divine skills part.

"Yucuilong, this Upper Dao Foundation, doesn’t have many suitable accompanying divine skills... Erlang’s infantry is more common."

"If one is of the direct lineage at Qingmu Ridge, they would know there’s another choice, which is ’Flesh Raksha’!"

Yucuilong paired with Erlang’s infantry could achieve the ’Transform into Three Thousand’ divine skill, summoning three thousand Erlang’s infantry, invincible wherever they went.

While paired with Flesh Raksha, it could achieve the ’Flesh Derivation’ divine skill, a great divine skill of a body refinement god-demon, granting unparalleled physique, capable of blood rebirth with strong survival skills.

Fang Xing wasn’t impressed by the three thousand Erlang’s infantry, as he already had a touch of Tree-man abilities, which somewhat overlapped.

However, ’Flesh Derivation’ wasn’t bad; it not only endowed supreme physique, adept at combat, but also preserved life through blood rebirth.

As long as a drop of essence blood was reserved, even if the body was slain, it could rapidly regenerate!

"In Qingmu Ridge, there should be the fundamental diagram of the ’Flesh Colossus’ divine skill... If I can’t exchange for it, should I try to kill a Dao Foundation cultivator who has mastered the ’Flesh Colossus’, and use the ’Dao Devouring and Foundation Swallowing’ technique to devour their Dao Foundation?"

If the former is feasible, Fang Xing does not wish to use the second method, as it goes against the natural path he follows.

...

The next day.

Fang Xing was meditating in his tree house when he suddenly heard a rush of footsteps approaching.

"Steward Uncle, there’s big trouble!"

The voices of Meng Tiandong and Dong Mei’er came in simultaneously.

With a thought, Fang Xing’s tree house automatically parted to create a path, and he walked out: "What has happened?"

"Reporting to Steward Uncle, last night someone sneaked into the valley. The wooden house where Fei Changqing resides is damaged, and he himself is missing..."

In Meng Tiandong’s voice, there was a hint of fear: "It seems likely the work of Blood Shadow Sect demon cultivators!"

He was truly frightened.

After all, Fei Changqing was a Qi Sensing Post Realm cultivator, and he vanished without a sound.

Doesn’t that mean if the killer wanted to target any one of them, it would be the same result?

"What? I’ll go and see!"

Fang Xing was greatly shocked and hurried to the medicine garden.

Indeed, he saw the shattered wooden house of Fei Changqing.

"Quickly notify Shennong Hall!"

He pretended to inspect for a moment, his expression dark as water, and issued orders.

Before long, Fei Changnong arrived.

’It seems that Shennong Hall has also been stripped of many people, and now it’s basically Fei Changnong handling matters...’

Fang Xing inwardly remarked and went forward to speak a few words with Fei Changnong.

"Alas... I didn’t expect more demon cultivators to sneak in."

Fei Changnong sighed, as Fei Changqing was his relative after all.

"Yes, indeed, this place is far too remote from the sect center... Luckily, they should all be Qi Sensing demon cultivators and do not dare to make a move against me, a Dao Foundation cultivator."

Fang Xing sighed: "This is a member of the Fei family. I need to write a letter and inform Junior Brother Fei Yong."

After some pleasantries, he invited Fei Changnong to his own tree house.

"Junior brother, your residence is truly... truly..."

Fei Changnong glanced around at the tree house with nothing but a few wooden stakes, and after a long pause, said: "Truly modest..."

"Ha ha, I enjoy nature and liberating my instincts..."

Fang Xing chuckled as he poured tea for Fei Changnong.

"You invited me here, junior brother, not merely for that trivial matter of a Qi Sensing disciple, right?"

Fei Changnong took the wooden cup and laughed.

For Dao Foundation cultivators like them, the death of a mere Qi Sensing disciple was a minor issue.

"Indeed..."

Fang Xing admitted directly, and brought over a plate of berries: "This humble abode is simple; I hope senior brother will forgive me..."

"If I’m not mistaken, you are here for the fundamental diagram of the divine skill, right?"

Fei Changnong guessed: "Your skill in spiritual farming is quite impressive, accumulating over ten thousand merits in just thirty years... Looking at your aura, I doubt you’re far from the Dao Foundation Middle Realm, junior brother?"

Though Fang Xing had long reached the Dao Foundation Middle Realm, the grandmaster’s perfect aura restraining technique allowed Fei Changnong to see only the information Fang Xing desired him to see.

"Exactly so..."

Fang Xing nodded.

"I wonder, what is your Dao Foundation?"

Fei Changnong asked with some curiosity.

"Lush Verdure!" Fang Xing replied.

"An Upper Dao Foundation, no wonder your spiritual farming skills are so outstanding!" Fei Changnong smiled, thinking it was unexpected yet reasonable: "The Lush Verdure Dao Foundation is introduced in the sect. Combined with Erlang’s infantry, it will be most adept in group battles in the future..."

"However... I heard there’s another fundamental diagram in the sect called ’Flesh Colossus’?"

Fang Xing said softly.

Fei Changnong was startled and couldn’t help but scrutinize Fang Xing: "I didn’t expect you, living in seclusion, to be able to follow the path of a certain true person..."

These divine skill combinations are closely guarded secrets by Qingmu Ridge over its Dao Foundation cultivators, and are never shared externally.

Fang Xing knowing this certainly meant he had ties with a certain Yin God true person, prompting Fei Changnong to look at him with newfound respect.

"I just happened to acquire some related information by chance..."

Fang Xing waved his hand: "Otherwise, I wouldn’t come to seek advice from senior brother... If I want to exchange for the fundamental diagram of ’Flesh Colossus’, would the sect agree?"

"This..."

Fei Changnong looked troubled: "This fundamental diagram can only be exchanged by the sect’s direct lineage..."

"Are there any exceptions?"

"Exceptions, of course, exist. Nowadays, it’s wartime. With war merits, many rare items in the sect can be exchanged..."

Fei Changnong explained.

Fang Xing thought for a moment, then shook his head: "Then... what if I privately trade for war merits with my own merits? I believe if I offer more, someone would be willing, right?"

"You are certainly... cautious, junior brother."

Fei Changnong was somewhat speechless: "But I must remind you, many Dao Foundation cultivators gain nothing even after studying Erlang’s infantry for ten or more years, and ’Flesh Colossus’ is much harder than Erlang’s infantry..."
