Stealthily cultivating in the chaotic world of demons and martial artists

Chapter 764: Chapter 695: The Onset of Chaos_4

All Transcendent God cultivators turned pale as these words were spoken!

...

Several hours later.

Fang Xi walked out of Lord YuanYin’s Dongfu, sighing.

This incident naturally caused widespread panic.

However, since Lord YuanYin, the Protection Cultivator of this place, had given his assurance, they could only choose to believe him for the time being.

Even in the midst of the barbaric wilderness, a Returning to Emptiness cultivator leading dozens of Transcendent Gods to establish a temporary settlement was not... too problematic.

’Alright... actually, it’s a big problem...’

’Generally speaking, only upon reaching the Integration stage can one be somewhat confident to travel through the wilderness, and then, one still doesn’t dare to venture too deeply...’

’Now we’re like a colony’s stranded force, having lost contact with our motherland... If it were for a short period, it would be fine, but as time drags on, who knows how many demons and monsters will emerge...’

Fang Xi internally complained, and without realizing it, he arrived at the outer city area, which is the outskirts of the marketplace.

Here, at least tens of thousands of low-level cultivators live!

For them, this crisis was a true disaster!

In front of a shop.

"Hurry, hurry, go grab the Spirit Rice..."

A swarm of Qi Refining cultivators rushed forward, showing signs of escalating into chaos.

"My friends, my friends... we’re not selling today."

The shopkeeper’s face was filled with bitterness, standing in front of the door.

"Damn it... The bell rang eighty-one times, anyone with eyes can see a big disaster is coming, you dare to hoard..."

A man in green clothes roared, holding a giant hammer Spiritual Instrument in his hand, ready to smash it.

"The Sky Brahman Army is here!"

At the critical moment, someone shouted, and all the Individual Cultivators scattered like birds and beasts.

Wherever Fang Xi went, he saw shops being raided.

Many Individual Cultivators, though unaware of the latest intelligence, guessed something was amiss and instinctively began hoarding supplies for life and cultivation.

After all, most of them were Qi Refining cultivators who couldn’t go without food for extended periods.

Not to mention, they needed to purchase many self-defense items...

’Actually, we’ve prepared quite a lot of low-level materials for this opening of the frontier, especially Spirit Rice seeds...’

’Although there aren’t many Spiritual Fields cultivated outside the marketplace, with centralized management, rationing, and fixed allocations... it should generally meet the needs.’

Fang Xi thought to himself.

’But in reality, it definitely won’t be enough...’

At the high-level cultivators’ meeting this time, he hadn’t heard any plans concerning stabilizing the low-level cultivators, suggesting a strong implication of leaving them to fend for themselves.

And the Individual Cultivators were a bunch of talents, who could probably survive even in the harshest environment, with a number of them ultimately making it.

Only the process was likely to be exceedingly cruel!

’With Transcendent God and Returning to Emptiness cultivators uncertain of their own futures, who has time to care about you...’

Watching the roadside Individual Cultivators step aside and bow respectfully, Fang Xi sighed inwardly.

’Moreover, it’s probably at times like this that someone is prepared to exploit Individual Cultivators ruthlessly... after all, cultivators are inherently self-interested...’

...

After viewing the chaos in the marketplace, Fang Xi returned to his Dongfu.

No matter what, with the Sky Brahman Army’s structure still intact and able to suppress for the time being, there was no significant issue, and no big chaos ensued.

Killing a few troublemakers among the Individual Cultivators and displaying their heads as a warning for a time would restore the market to calm.

What he truly needed to consider was his own dilemma.

’Now that the Sky Brahman Domain has lost contact with the outside world and the Integration-stage cultivators are severely injured... amidst this great chaos, seems like my chance for ascension?’

’If I ascend now, at most Lord YuanYin might covet, that woman is just a Returning to Emptiness cultivator... once I’ve ascend to that stage, how would she dare to make noise?’

’Moreover, there are huge opportunities hidden in this chaos...’

’In the future, when I say my chance to ascend to Returning to Emptiness came from here, no one could dispute it...’

Having settled on his calculations, Fang Xi immediately decided to ascend to Returning to Emptiness!

Just then, he felt the Prohibition of his Dongfu changing and couldn’t help but give a wry smile.

Although he had decided to ascend, dealing with these Transcendent Gods coming to unite and socialize... still required some attention...
