Chapter 1229: Chapter 1229: Seek Your Own Blessing

Fang Bai stood among a group of Martial Artists being besieged, coldly watching Ying Guangping with a sardonic smile and his group of arrogant Tianji Sect disciples, feeling impatient in his heart.

Fang Bai traversed the Myriad Miles Purgatory Sea to reach Shenwu Continent in order to find those friends and relatives who came to the True Martial Realm with him. Now that he had arrived at Shenwu Continent, his desire to meet those friends and relatives grew even more urgent, not wanting to waste a single moment.

However, at this moment, a group of Tianji Sect disciples led by Ying Guangping had surrounded him, blocking his way, which greatly annoyed him.

Due to the matter with Feng Peilan, Fang Bai did not have a good impression of Tianji Sect, and now seeing Ying Guangping deliberately making things difficult for Elder Yan, he couldn’t stand by idly.

"To stop for a day and to collect tens of thousands of high-rank Essence Stones, your Tianji Sect really isn’t just ordinarily greedy!"

As Fang Bai spoke, he stepped forward from behind Elder Yan, standing in front of Ying Guangping, a mocking expression on his face.

Fang Bai was half a head taller than Ying Guangping and as he spoke, he looked down at Ying Guangping, which actually made Ying Guangping feel a bit of pressure.

"What background does this youngster have? He’s so young yet seems to be no weaker than me; could he possibly be a disciple from those legendary Innate Sects?"

Ying Guangping stared at Fang Bai, murmuring silently in his heart.

In the True Martial Realm, powerful sects stand numerous, hidden dragons and crouching tigers. Ordinary Martial Artists might think the most powerful sects are the first-grade sects, but only high-ranking members of such first-grade sects like Ying Guangping know that there are Innate Sects which are beyond their reach.

Beneath the Innate are all ants.

This is a saying spread among the top experts of the True Martial Realm, meaning that any Martial Artist below the Innate Realm is no different from ants in the eyes of an Innate Expert, easily crushable.

It can be said without exaggeration that someone as powerful as Ying Guangping, a Universe Level early-stage expert, only has the fate of being instantly killed when facing an Innate Expert.

Let alone high-ranking members of an Innate Sect, even if it was a normal disciple, Ying Guangping wouldn’t dare provoke them lightly.

"Which Sect does the young brother come from? It seems there might be some misunderstanding with our Tianji Sect?"

Not being able to gauge Fang Bai’s background, and despite Fang Bai’s hostile and mocking tone, Ying Guangping did not dare act rashly for the moment, fearing a tougher opponent which could lead to losses for himself and the sect.

"A misunderstanding?"

Fang Bai smirked and said, "The infamy of your Tianji Sect has reached me during my journey. Moreover, I am not a disciple of any sect; I am just a Loose Cultivator."

"So he’s just a Loose Cultivator, had me worried..."

Ying Guangping’s initially tense mood immediately relaxed, and his gaze towards Fang Bai revealed a bit of malice.

If Fang Bai were indeed a disciple from an Innate Sect, Ying Guangping would have never dared show him disrespect; but against a Loose Cultivator, he harbored no fear as a Universe Level early-stage Loose Cultivator could not contend against a first-grade sect like Tianji Sect.

"Elder Ying, young people are inexperienced, please don’t take it to heart..."

Elder Yan didn’t expect Fang Bai to suddenly step forward and accuse Tianji Sect, and seeing Ying Guangping frown slightly, exuding a strong killing intent, he couldn’t help but inwardly sigh.

Elder Yan had a good impression of Fang Bai, feeling that he had great fortune and given time, would achieve awe-inspiring feats on the Martial Dao. If he were to fall here, it would truly be a pity.

Ying Guangping did not pay any attention to Elder Yan, his gaze fixated on Fang Bai, he coldly laughed and said, "Do you know the consequences of provoking Tianji Sect?"

Fang Bai smiled and said, "Sorry, I just arrived and didn’t know."

Ying Guangping laughed out of anger, "You didn’t know, let me tell you: Anyone who has ever provoked Tianji Sect has never survived!"

Fang Bai looked incredulous and turned to ask Elder Yan, "Is Tianji Sect really that powerful?"

Elder Yan stared blankly at Fang Bai, thinking to himself that he had already explained the situation of Tianji Sect when they were on the ship, so why is he pretending to be ignorant now?

Elder Yan didn’t know what Fang Bai was scheming, and with a sigh of pity, he looked at Fang Bai with a bitter expression, "Brother Fang, you... you must fend for yourself."

Although he didn’t directly answer how powerful Tianji Sect was, the phrase "fend for yourself" said it all.

Fang Bai pretended to be very scared and said with a trembling voice, "Oh no, doesn’t this mean I’ve brought disaster upon myself? Elder Yan, what should I do now?"

Although Elder Yan hadn’t interacted with Fang Bai for long, he understood to some extent that Fang Bai’s character was modest and reserved, but inherently unyielding, and definitely not someone to fear to this extent, making him feel quite puzzled.

As for Fang Bai’s inquiry, Elder Yan didn’t know how to respond, should he just say wait for death since you’ve provoked the Tianji Sect?

"Now you’re afraid? Haha..."

Ying Guangping, seeing Fang Bai’s pale face and slightly trembling body, seemingly terrified to the extreme, felt a great satisfaction in his heart, laughed aloud, and then sinisterly said, "Now you have two options: either kill yourself, or I will do it for you. Choose one."

Fang Bai despondently said, "Both choices lead to death... Isn’t there a third option?"

The martial artists who traveled on the same ship with Fang Bai, especially those who had attacked the Silverwing Hawk, looked at Fang Bai murmuring to himself and couldn’t help but feel sorrowful.

"Right!"

Seemingly hopeless, Fang Bai suddenly slapped his palm, his expression becoming exhilarated as he said to Ying Guangping, "Let’s make a deal!"

Ying Guangping was stunned, asking subconsciously, "What deal?"

Fang Bai said, "I give you a sum of cultivation resources, and you spare my life, how about that?"

Upon hearing Fang Bai’s words, Elder Yan sighed audibly, knowing that Fang Bai no longer had any chance of survival and was doomed.

Ying Guangping, a man of extreme greed and sinister cruelty, if he knew Fang Bai possessed rare cultivation resources, he would definitely find every means to kill Fang Bai and seize all of his cultivation resources.

"If you can provide 100,000 High Rank Essence Stones or cultivation resources of equivalent value, I might consider sparing your life!"

Ying Guangping’s interest was piqued, he twirled his mustache, his eyes shining with excitement as he looked at Fang Bai.

Fang Bai, young and an Individual Cultivation Martial Artist without the backing of a Sect, yet possessing strength not inferior to his own, meant he definitely had encountered great fortune, either by acquiring a substantial amount of high-rank cultivation resources or discovering some legendary Martial Arts Techniques left by a powerful expert.

Ying Guangping, one of the eight stewards of Tianji Sect, though in a high position, desired to be among the elders to wield greater power. Unfortunately, his strength had not yet broken through, causing him endless frustration.

Now, he saw an opportunity in Fang Bai, thinking that if the young man did possess high-rank cultivation resources or Martial Arts Techniques, and he could claim them, perhaps it could significantly boost his strength, making it not impossible to ascend to the position of an elder.
