Chapter 119 God of Rift (Seeking Monthly Tickets)
After killing the Longevity Turtle, Fang Qing returned to Sanyuan Island.
At this time, Sanyuan Island was already engulfed in flames of war.
But no matter how audacious a cultivator was, upon seeing him appear, they would immediately flee in terror.
"Why is it this person who has returned? Where is Turtle Ancestor?"
Upon witnessing this scene, the head of the Jiang family was filled with despair.
He knew that the Jiang family was doomed, but not because of their involvement in the battle between Core Formation forces, but for some inexplicable reason.
This was something he truly could not accept.
call out!
Fang Qing first arrived at the small island where the Jiang family lived. Since the intimidating presence of the Longevity Turtle was still present, the island was in the best condition.
But at that moment, he unleashed a sword strike, shattering the island's protective formation, and began a rampant looting.
After the Jiang family was left in ruins, they went to the Lu family, killing a few foolish Lu family cultivators along the way, before returning home laden with over a dozen storage bags.
Taibai Island.
As the lord of the island, Fang Qing's secret departure and return went unnoticed even by Ma Xin, who was in charge of the formation.
He returned to his cave dwelling and continued his seclusion, taking the opportunity to inspect his spoils.
"Sigh—I have so many low-level materials, and apart from spirit stones, I don't even care about much else."
After inspecting the materials, Fang Qing found that most of them were first-grade, with very few low-grade second-grade materials, let alone mid-grade second-grade spiritual materials.
It's just that it occupies a large quantity.
As for magical artifacts? The highest one I have is a second-tier high-grade throwing knife, which is barely acceptable.
That talisman was completely destroyed by his own attack, losing all its power.
There are many jade slips and inheritances of various kinds, most of which are first-order, with a few second-order. They can barely gather half of the various skills of cultivation, but they are not of much use.
In terms of surprises, nothing beats the "Turtle and Crane Longevity Secret".
"what?"
Holding a jade slip, Fang Qing finally showed a hint of surprise on his face: "This is—'The Shadowless Escape of Xun Wind'? It's the complete version, with all seven levels—wasn't it said at the auction that the last three levels were destroyed?"
He only made a slight guess before sneering, "The Jiang family has done so many bad things, and they still want to hold back? Serves them right—"
This jade slip was also obtained from the Jiang family's treasure vault.
Clearly, the Jiang family possesses the complete manual of this escape technique, but they are reluctant to sell it.
After a long while, Fang Qing let out a long sigh.
"The Lu and Jiang families—aside from their secret escape techniques, don't have anything particularly impressive about them."
He knew in his heart that even if he acted too quickly, there would definitely be many remnants of these two families who had fled.
They even planted seeds of revolution outside from the very beginning, bringing with them the family's heritage.
These cultivators are the ones who might drop good or high-quality goods! It just requires a bit of luck, and he's too lazy to calculate and hunt them down one by one.
After all, they are just two Foundation Establishment families. It's obvious they don't have much of a Core Formation foundation. At most, they might have a few Foundation Establishment Pills, talismans, high-grade spiritual weapons, or perhaps a Core Formation cultivation technique.
Fang Qing nowadays truly looks down on him.
"Next comes the real big deal."
He took out Wei Yuanfeng's storage bag: "This person is a disciple of a Core Formation cultivator, so he must have some good stuff, right?"
A moment later, Fang Qing angrily tossed the storage bag aside.
This chief disciple of the demonic path had only a few demonic artifacts and a dozen bottles of blood-gathering pills on him; he didn't even have many mid-grade spirit stones, making him extremely poor.
"This person is already in the late Foundation Establishment stage, yet he hasn't even thought about preparing a Core Formation spiritual item for himself?"
He was somewhat speechless, and then examined the jade slips.
Before long, Fang Qing saw a map that looked somewhat familiar. He took out the Zhou Tian Star Scroll and compared it, recognizing it immediately: "So it's a map of the secret realm—this is the route to the Five Elements Fruit Tree? Useless to me—"
He tossed aside the jade slip in his hand and picked up another one that was as black as ink.
The moment his consciousness entered, he was slightly surprised.
This jade slip contains a vast amount of information, describing a demonic technique called the "Black Mystery Scripture".
There are methods for everything from foundation building to core formation, and there are also many shortcuts.
For example, achieving pseudo-Foundation Establishment through Blood Pills, or even breaking through minor bottlenecks in Foundation Establishment by consuming the essence blood of other cultivators, etc.
"This must be the main demonic art that True Man Hei Yuan cultivates. It is indeed much stronger than those previous trashy works."
Fang Qing couldn't help but become somewhat captivated.
This demonic cultivation method takes a different approach, emphasizing universality.
One can cultivate with any of the five elements or even low-grade spiritual roots, and can also use various secret techniques to accelerate the cultivation process.
He certainly wouldn't use any secret methods of consuming essence blood; Fang Qing came from a previous life and still had some obsession with cleanliness.
Not to mention consuming essence and blood, even the ancient Shu people would politely decline any such elixirs.
As for monsters? They're no different from pigs, cows, and sheep—they can be used freely.
"But when it comes to secret techniques, what can compare to the Dao-Born Pearl? As long as I cultivate even a trace of the Black Profound Scripture's power, I will immediately become a mid-Foundation Establishment cultivator in the Demonic Path—uh, I can write that down for later use—"
Although Fang Qing was certain that the most suitable Qi Refining Technique for his family to cultivate at present was still the "Azure Sea Technique," having a demonic alias had many advantages.
For example, if there is an annoying enemy in the sect, it is not advisable to take action due to the sect rules.
Then we can simply don the demonic disguise and kill them openly and honestly!
"Even if you don't cultivate demonic arts, you can still choose to learn one or two of these secret techniques; they're quite useful."
Most of the secret arts of demonic cultivation are quick to learn and incredibly powerful!
Fang Qing then saw the infamous Soul-Devouring Demon Flame that had burned his senior brother Tian Ding's head to baldness!
"Hiss—Cultivating this demonic fire is extremely simple and easy—but it will shorten one's lifespan?"
"Even if I still have a second-tier life-extending pill, I can't take my lifespan for granted — rejection."
After reading only the introduction, he immediately rejected the demonic fire.
Undeniably, this demonic fire is incredibly sharp and can sweep away powerful enemies in Foundation Establishment stage battles, but the cost is too high, so he doesn't choose it.
"Next—Blood Burning Escape Technique? That also requires a huge drain on energy—and in terms of speed, it might not even be as fast as Wind Escape Technique. Don't—"
"A technique to feign death? Uh... I have an idea, I'll remember it."
"This is... a soul-searching technique? 'Soul-Searching Technique of Divine Split'?"
Suddenly, Fang Qing's consciousness paused as he discovered a demonic secret technique that greatly interested him.
In fact, there were a few other demonic arts that interested him, but they were either difficult to learn or required the use of the Black Mystic Scripture's magic power, unlike the "Soul-Searching Technique of Divine Splitting," which was simply a divine sense technique.
"Although the art of soul searching is widely rumored in the cultivation world, only Nascent Soul cultivators can truly search every detail of another's soul! After all, to search someone's soul in such detail requires extremely high levels of spiritual strength and profound knowledge."
"This Soul-Searching Technique of Divine Splitting" has demanding requirements. It requires using one's own powerful divine sense as a spear to directly shatter the sea of consciousness of the person being searched, and then using secret techniques to search for the memory fragments desired by oneself. Not only is the failure rate extremely high, but even if it succeeds, only scattered and fragmented content can be obtained.
"Furthermore—this technique can only be used once on a person, because after that, that person's consciousness will be shattered, and they will either die or become an idiot—"
"With my current spiritual strength, even if I master this technique, it would be extremely difficult to search the souls of Foundation Establishment cultivators—but I am quite confident in refining Qi cultivators."
Fang Qing carefully memorized the incantation, since the Soul Searching Technique was indeed very convenient and easy to use.
Furthermore, his divine sense is gradually strengthening as he cultivates the "Horse-Headed Vajra Protector Divine Art" for the second time. He still has a great chance of becoming a cultivator in the early or mid-stages of the Soul-Searching Foundation Establishment stage in the future.
Time flies like an arrow.
This day.
A communication talisman flew hurriedly into the cave, interrupting Fang Qing, who was practicing the "Vajra Prajnaparamita Stages".
He leisurely emerged from the pass and saw Ma Xin and Bei Lingshu looking terrified.
-
"What happened?"
Fang Qing sat cross-legged and casually asked.
"Island Lord—A dramatic upheaval has occurred on Sanyuan Island. An unknown swordsman clashed with the Jiang and Lu families, subsequently slaying three Foundation Establishment cultivators from the Lu family. The Jiang family patriarch, accompanied by the Longevity Turtle, pursued this individual into the deep sea, disappearing without a trace. He has likely met the same fate. Sanyuan Island has now become a no-man's-land, a place ravaged by treacherous cultivators."
Ma Xin held a jade slip with a full-body portrait of a sword cultivator on it.
With sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes, his entire being exuded a sharp and piercing aura.
"An unknown swordsman, practicing a metal-elemental cultivation technique, with a mid-Foundation Establishment cultivation level, whose swordsmanship is awe-inspiring and terrifying."
Fang Qing glanced at the description and smiled inwardly: Not bad—only slightly inferior to my true self—
His expression was serious: "Do you have any information on this swordsman?"
"That's all. The Little Ocean could never have produced such a sword cultivator—I suspect this person comes from the East Sea."
Ma Xin's expression was grave: "The sect has already sent word, instructing us to be in charge of the investigation—"
As he spoke, his mouth was filled with bitterness.
He was only at the early stage of Foundation Establishment, yet he sat at the same table as Lu Tianyuan. How dare he, a man of extraordinary courage, pursue this god of death?
"After all, it's a sect mission. Sending a Foundation Establishment cultivator to Sanyuan Island to take a look and handle it will be fine."
Fang Qing had extensive experience in dealing with giving up: "What about that longevity tortoise?"
"I don't know—"
Bei Lingxu replied, "According to my guess—that sword cultivator must have had accomplices who set up formations or special traps in the deep sea. Even if the Longevity Turtle's combat strength is comparable to that of a fake Core Formation cultivator, it would be difficult for it to survive if it fell into a specially designed trap."
In the world of cultivation, all sorts of secret techniques and spiritual objects emerge endlessly, and the unique methods of biological and chemical restraint are equally abundant.
For example, although dragon-type monsters have always been the royalty among monsters, if they eat a kind of "Drunken Dragon Grass", they may fall into a deep sleep and become helpless to be slaughtered.
The Longevity Turtle's only advantage is its amazing defense; its movement speed is a natural weakness, making it more vulnerable to various countermeasures.
"What a pity about the Longevity Turtle—its blood is also a good ingredient for alchemy."
Fang Qing smacked his lips, behaving like a master alchemist.
"This time, I'll have to trouble you, Junior Sister Bei, to make that trip."
He thought for a moment and made a decision, which surprised Ma Xin, who was standing next to him. He thought that with the relationship between the two of them, he would definitely get all the dirty and hard work.
Little did they know, Fang Qing was certain that there was no danger on this trip, and it didn't matter who he sent.
