Chapter 338: Chapter 336: Appraisal (Double Monthly Ticket Voting Plus More Activity 2)_1
"Ha ha... It seems we are about to welcome a few more fellows,"
The other Masters also praised the Jade Bicolor Image one after another.
At this time, the ’Transformative Divine Wood’ had already borne over twenty fruits, known as ’Earth Origin Pills’, and each Master Golden Core received one.
Fang Xi looked at the fist-sized pill in his hand but sighed. Unlike those who were hasty to enjoy it, with a flash of light, he tucked it into his sleeve for safekeeping.
’These powerful Taoist Temples like the Five Viscera... first monopolizing the Transformation Secret Realm, and then using the flesh and blood of ten thousand cultivations within the realm to make pills... Distributing them to recruit other Master Yushi, and then using a small part to nurture their own disciples, no wonder there’s an endless stream of Core Formation cultivators...’
Inside the Secret Realm, numerous Taoists also received their long-anticipated chance at Core Formation.
Fang Xi’s eyes sparkled as he watched Yu Hua with the look of someone who was ready to enjoy the show.
Hua Feiye appeared somewhat surprised, but he also took notice of Yu Hua.
At this moment, Yu Hua, watching one Taoist after another swallow the Earth Origin Pills and challenge their limits, was also secretly sweating, "This is bad... I am not a true Taoist of the White Bone Temple; what will be the consequence if my Life-bound Skills are exposed?"
...
Within the palace, a group of Core Formation cultivators couldn’t wait to taste the ’Earth Origin Pill’, one by one their faces glowing red, seemingly making great advancements in their magic powers.
One of the Masters Hei Yu complimented, "After the misfortune happened to the Taoist Palace... The Temple Master of the Five Viscera’s proposal really benefited us all, I truly admire it."
"It’s nothing, it’s nothing. It was only with the joint effort of all our fellow cultivators that we could maintain this great event..."
Huo Xinzi smiled mildly, pleased with himself.
Seeing in the Jade Bicolor that one of the disciples who took the pill early was beginning Core Formation, he couldn’t help but smile and said, "Once the true disciple succeeds in Core Formation and comes to meet with us, letting everyone assess the quality of our respective Golden Cores will make this Pill Conclave successful."
Master Hei Yu immediately said, "Is there even a need for assessment? Your temple’s ’Five Organs Ghost Skills’, with the refining of a ’Five Qi Rotating Pill’, doesn’t just have a continuous stream of magic power but also surpasses ordinary Core Formation cultivators by a full fifty percent in strength of the same tier... In my view, nothing surpasses the marvel of the Golden Core."
"Ha ha... Sir, you flatter me."
Huo Xinzi, filled with joy inside, modestly declined the praise, "In terms of Golden Core divine skills, once the White Bone Temple’s ’White Bone Relic’ is revealed, it truly overpowers all other bone-oriented divine skills in the world and can even transform into the White Bone Great Strength Devil God, with boundless applications."
"And the ’Yellow Spring Sky Ghost Pill’ achieved through the Dark Method by the Yellow Spring Temple is mighty and grand. With one pill, it is as if the world falls into the yellow springs, additionally accompanied by an extremely powerful Dark Divine Prohibition..."
"Besides that, Prime Taoist Wu’s ’Black Water Xuanming Pill,’ Sir Hua’s ’Seven Emotions and Desires Extinction Pill’... All are worth a look."
...
His words seemed to cater to everyone, and the Masters’ faces softened considerably.
"I wonder what kind of Golden Core Master Qing Muzi has cultivated; would you be willing to reveal it for us to appreciate a bit..."
Just then, a voice came from a corner.
Fang Xi looked over and saw a disheveled middle-aged scholar, holding a jade pot, indulging in drinking by himself.
This scholar, previously unnoticed, now spoke out against Fang Xi with what seemed like hostility!
As all the cultivators in the room turned their gaze toward him, Fang Xi remained as calm as ever: "It’s just a Boundless Blood Sea Pill..."
"So it’s the Boundless Blood Sea Pill!"
Hua Feiye nodded, still as expressionless as a piece of wood, neither surprised nor shocked.
"Boundless Blood Sea Pill... This pill establishes its own lineage. It is said that to achieve this pill, one must commit boundless evil and create a sea of blood... You indeed have a resolute Dao Heart, fellow cultivator!"
Huo Xinzi praised.
"This Boundless Blood Sea Pill has always been the secret transmission of only the ’Skinless View’... I wonder how you managed to refine it?"
The down-and-out middle-aged scholar was persistent and asked another question.
"Easy to say... Naturally, I killed the person and took the pill..."
Fang Xi replied calmly, "We cultivators, when faced with conflicts over the Dao, can only fight to the death. Sir seems quite anxious; could it be that you have some connection with the Temple Master of the Skinless View?"
"Hehe... This ’Master Kun’ is from the ’Constant Change View,’ and has never had much to do with the Skinless View... Master Kun has always been like this, don’t take it to heart, fellow cultivator,"
Huo Xinzi’s eyes flashed as he introduced Master Kun to Fang Xi.
"I see..."
Fang Xi chuckled, seemingly convinced.
The destitute scholar drank another cup of wine in silence, and his intentions remained unknown.
Just as everyone was somewhat stunned, a black-robed Master suddenly stood up, his overwhelming magic power spilling out and messing up the tableware in front of him, as he shouted, "How audacious... to actually kill a White Bone Temple’s true disciple!"
The Masters looked at each other, then turned their attention to the Jade Bicolor.
In the Secret Realm, Yu Hua, not hesitating any longer, began to launch a sneak attack on other Core Formation true disciples!
To dare such a deed under the watchful eyes of so many Masters was incredibly audacious.
At this point, even Huo Xinzi couldn’t sit still: "Fellow cultivators... Let us capture this scoundrel, and I’ll offer his heart and liver for your wine!"
With a loud shout, his Five-Qi Rotation wrapped around him like a cloud, and he shot up into the sky, heading straight for the Mountain’s Transformation Secret Realm below.
"We’ll join, we’ll join!"
The group of Masters, eager to watch the excitement, rode their variously colored Escape Lights into the Secret Realm.
’It still takes some time to open the entrance to the Transformation Secret Realm...’
’This Yu Hua... Does he really plan to seize the chance to advance to Golden Core in this situation? A truly decisive move...’
’This child is clever and resilient, perhaps he has some other trick up his sleeve?’
Fang Xi nodded, then rode a pitch-dark gale up into the sky, flying in the opposite direction...
He wasn’t Yu Hua’s nanny, and the previous gifts were enough to settle their fate.
The trouble this brat got himself into, don’t think about making him clean up the mess!
Master Kun sat in place without moving, taking another sip of wine.
He looked in the direction Fang Xi had left, secretly performing a magic spell, "I didn’t expect this person to appear as well... This time in the Secret Realm, there truly is an endless emergence of unforeseen events... Just right, let it be chaotic, the more chaos, the better... Five Qi Rotating Pill, White Bone Relic, Yellow Spring Sky Ghost, Boundless Blood Sea... I didn’t expect that they could all be gathered this time."
In his arms, a Ghost Face Token was flashing with a strange light...
...
Near Wanhua Mountain.
On top of a mountain peak.
Two figures stood side by side, one dressed in black and one in white, both with the visage of old men.
It was actually the black and white elders who once pursued Fang Xi!
At this moment, Elder Bai took out a Ghost Face Token from his chest.
The grim ghost’s face on the token flashed with scarlet light, and Master Kun’s voice could be heard coming from it.
’What? The person we’ve been looking for has also appeared?’
Upon hearing this, Elder Bai’s brows immediately furrowed.
’Boundless Blood Sea...’
Spoke Elder Hei with a stern voice.
’Exactly... The Young Master’s grand plan requires the Boundless Blood Sea Pill, which is essential.’
Elder Bai’s face was bitter, "It’s just that there are too few inheritors of the Boundless Blood Sea Pill... There are even fewer who can achieve a Golden Core. We finally found a Skinless Temple Master, yet someone got the jump on us..."
’No matter... Hadn’t the Young Master found another person before, that Taoist Yu Hua, who is currently undergoing Core Formation in the Secret Realm? If this person succeeds in forming his core, he could be of use...’
Elder Hei’s voice turned a bit mysterious.
Yu Hua cultivated ’Skin Shadow Skills’ and with further progress, it would be ’Blood Skin Skills’!
This person benefited from their secret support, making his way smoothly through the Secret Realm, not only completing his own inheritance but also gaining an opportunity for Core Formation.
All of this would be repaid!
"That’s why I was a bit hesitant... After all, we already have an alternative for the Boundless Blood Sea Pill, and this opportunity to capture all Golden Core practitioners from major forces like Five Viscera Temple and White Bone Temple in one fell swoop is rare... Most of our forces are also inside the Transformation Secret Realm, unable to be reassigned," he continued.
Elder Bai showed a hint of hesitation.
’The Core Formation is difficult, and the child Yu Hua may not succeed... Capturing that person would also be a safety net,’ Elder Hei said.
’The key point is that Master Mu, or rather Qing Muzi, is not simple... To capture the Skinless Temple Master, either you or I would have to fight, and even if we could overpower him, he’d likely escape unless we join forces and use that magic divine skill, then success is absolutely guaranteed.’
Elder Bai frowned, ’But we have our duties to tend to... We still need to oversee and maintain the Array Eye that seals the Transformation Secret Realm. We cannot act rashly...’
’Let’s report it!’
Elder Hei suddenly spoke up.
’Indeed... As things stand, the only option is to report to the Young Master.’
Elder Bai’s face showed a trace of hesitation, but it quickly shifted to a resolute look. He took out the ghost face token, performed a magic spell, and his lips moved continuously.
Shortly after, the token flashed with light, and a young voice came through: ’I am already aware of the situation. We cannot let Master Mu go... I have already sent the ’Heart Demon Guard’ to proceed...’
’The Heart Demon Guard?’
Elder Bai’s expression brightened, ’With this, everything is in place...’
...
’I wonder if Master Kun will come to ambush me... If he does, I’ll simply capture him and search his soul, then all his conspiracies and schemes will be crystal clear.’
Fang Xi maintained the speed of a normal Core Formation practitioner as he flew, staying vigilant all the while.
He was actually fishing.
Whether the fish would bite, however, remained to be seen.
As he travelled by Escape Light, Fang Xi suddenly looked bewildered.
A familiar feeling arose in his heart: ’Heart Demon? No, it’s an external demon invading!’
As a cultivator who had formed his core with the ’Evoking Demon Spell’, Fang Xi was more than adept at dealing with such demon attacks and invasions.
In the midst of his befuddled state of mind, he pretended as if he didn’t notice and plummeted headfirst...
Meanwhile, in the void, a mysterious person appeared.
The person wore a black beastly armor, full-body armor with various mysterious patterns, underneath the face armor were a pair of blood-red pupils, his hands performing a magic spell.
The strange external demon assault that Fang Xi had felt was indeed the doing of this person!
Seeing Fang Xi fall, the person clad in black armor approached quickly, extending his hands which sported gauntlets with three pitch-black sharp claws shimmering with a chilling light, clearly intending to cut Fang Xi open right then and there!!
