371. Chapter 364: Earth Invisibility Anti-Spy Garment

The Huanyu cultivators near Yindu City watched as disciples of Luyan Valley from time to time fell from the sky above the Shangqing Sect, unable to hide their excitement, their faces full of exhilaration.

They had originally seen Luyan Valley fiercely break through the Shangqing Sect's protective grand formation, making Daoist Qingwei's worried hearts rise to their throats; they never expected that at the crucial moment the Shangqing Sect still possessed this terrifying trump card.

Under the orders of the four elders, over three thousand Earth Origin Realm cultivators of Luyan Valley, employing a 'cutting the firewood from under the pot' tactic, fiercely attacked the Shangqing Sect, intending to seize Daoist Qingwei and others as hostages to oppose the Shagui Sect's reinforcements and thus seek a path to survival for themselves; however, before the time of a single incense stick had elapsed, one-third of Luyan Valley's three thousand Earth Origin Realm cultivators were pit‑killed by the Shangqing Sect.

"Shagui Sect's base has issued a bounty order; hurry up and sign up."

Rewarding one hundred Heavenly Essence for each seriously injured Luyan Valley cultivator, and one thousand Heavenly Essence for each slain Luyan Valley cultivator.

Any Huanyu cultivator willing to accept the mission can come here to receive the Shagui Sect's exclusive Penguin Transmission Jade Slip and be given a free Invisibility Anti-Spy Garment.

Just then.

Among the Huanyu cultivators watching the battle in Yindu City, over a dozen disciples dressed in Shagui Sect attire shouted loudly.

They were Earth cultivators from the Shagui Sect's base disguising themselves, having received the bounty mission from the Fifth Lord inside the Shangqing Sect via the Penguin Transmission Jade Slip, and hurried over.

They had long been scouting the Huanyu cultivators watching the battle; these Huanyu cultivators who could worry for Daoist Qingwei were obviously his loyal followers. Because they feared helping Daoist Qingwei would expose their identities and bring calamity upon their families and clan members, they dared not act for a long time.

"Shagui Sect fellow Daoist, can the Invisibility Anti-Spy Garment really prevent one's identity from being leaked?"

An interested Huanyu cultivator, upon hearing this, hurriedly asked.

This cultivator is named Li Sidao, and he has been watching the battle in Yindu City for a full three months.

He had previously heard Daoist Qingwei lecture; his cultivation level had officially reached mid‑Earth Origin Realm. Seeing Daoist Qingwei of the Shangqing Sect imprisoned, he wanted to repay the favor but feared bringing trouble upon his family.

Luyan Valley is one of the top ten righteous forces of the Huanyu, with deep foundations; it is certainly not something their family's third‑rate power could provoke. Upon hearing of the Invisibility Anti-Spy Garment's abilities, Li Sidao became very interested.

Earth cultivator Zheng Lin was distributing the Invisibility Anti-Spy Garment; upon hearing this, he took one piece of protective gear and said.

"Fellow Daoist, you must absolutely believe in the power of the Invisibility Anti-Spy Garment."

The Invisibility Anti-Spy Garment contains a mimetic function that can alter a person's form, techniques, weapons, and aura, etc.

Any attack launched will appear in another form.

Not only would the Luyan Valley cultivators fail to recognize it, even one's own parents would find it strange upon seeing it.

"Whoever deceives you will die!"

When Zheng Lin spoke, his palm conjured a skull; he covered it with the Invisibility Anti-Spy Garment and struck out, and the green skull's Spiritual Power transformed into a red blade, causing Li Sidao's eyes to stare.

"Haha, good, give me one."

Li Sidao felt excited.

Such a strange function of the Invisibility Anti-Spy Garment can be called a treasure for bodily transformation; not only can it enable him to assist Daoist Qingwei in taking revenge on Luyan Valley, but later, when traveling outside and encountering powers that cannot be easily offended, as long as he has the Invisibility Anti-Spy Garment, he can conceal his form and attacks to carry out special retaliation, relying on his strength to finally withdraw unharmed.

Many cultivators saw Li Sidao wearing the Invisibility Anti-Spy Garment, its chest engraved with a black dragon pattern; they all gathered to look, the dragon pattern emitting a mysterious, unfathomable light, making the onlookers feel increasingly astonished and extraordinary the longer they gazed.

The Invisibility Anti-Spy Garment is not merely an anti‑spy garment; it also has defensive effects. Even a treasure garment in the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion would certainly be worth no less than fifty Heavenly Essence.

Many Huanyu cultivators' eyes shone with light.

As long as they accept the Fifth Lord's bounty mission, they can obtain the Invisibility Anti-Spy Garment for free; ninety percent of cultivators are eager to flock to it.

"Friends, after receiving the Invisibility Anti-Spy Garment, you will also be given a Penguin Transmission Jade Slip."

The Penguin Transmission Jade Slip has rich functions: live streaming, Dragon Source proxy hit, All-Annihilate Enemy, Pin West West, etc.

After obtaining the Penguin Transmission Jade Slip, first open the function column for All-Annihilate Enemy; the first entry is the mission posted by the Shangqing Sect.

Seriously injuring a Luyan Valley cultivator yields one hundred Heavenly Essence; beheading a Luyan Valley cultivator yields one thousand Heavenly Essence.

Just think: wearing the Invisibility Anti-Spy Garment means no one can pry into your secrets; secretly striking down Luyan Valley disciples and withdrawing unharmed, how much Heavenly Essence can one earn in a day? This is far more efficient than Huanyu cultivators digging for Heavenly Essence in the Heavenly Abyss or seeking treasure in the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion to exchange for Heavenly Essence.

Look at the balance on my Penguin Transmission Jade Slip—I already have three thousand Heavenly Essence.

The bold will be stuffed, the timid will starve; those Luyan Valley cultivators hanging in the sky are not enemies but money trees.

"Aren't you itching just by looking?" Zheng Lin pointed to the balance data on his Penguin Transmission Jade Slip and said carefully.

"What Zheng Lin Daoist said is correct."

To get rich, one must first go mad, then step forward.

The Invisibility Anti-Spy Garment settles the worry of aftermath after acting; what's there to fear about a mere bird?

Not making money when you have the chance—you son of a turtle; anyway, I've taken the mission.

Upon hearing Zheng Lin's words, Li Sidao, wearing the Invisibility Anti-Spy Garment, clicked on the mission for All-Annihilate Enemy; seeing the mission accepted, he slowly approached the remaining over one thousand Luyan Valley cultivators.

He possessed mid‑Earth Origin Realm strength, his body in peak condition, yet those Luyan Valley disciples had just escaped death from the Shangqing Sect's trap; he wished to ambush those seriously injured Luyan Valley cultivators whose strength had greatly diminished, which was safest for himself.

Ding.

Congratulations, Li Sidao has slain a Luyan Valley Earth Origin Realm cultivator, earning one thousand Heavenly Essence.

Just then.

Those Huanyu cultivators still hesitating while holding the Penguin Transmission Jade Slip felt it vibrate unexpectedly; in the red headline column of the Jade Slip, a golden message cycled repeatedly.

"Holy shit, I already have one thousand Heavenly Essence this fast."

I went to the Heavenly Abyss, almost lost my life to obtain a rare spiritual herb, and got only one hundred fifty Heavenly Essence.

Damn it, even a mediocre mid‑Earth Origin Realm cultivator can earn one thousand Heavenly Essence; old man Wan Ren Tu, a late‑Earth Origin Realm cultivator, ought to be making over ten thousand Heavenly Essence!" Wan Ren Tu stared at the cycling golden headline on his Penguin Transmission Jade Slip and said excitedly.

He donned the Invisibility Anti-Spy Garment, transforming into a 1.4‑meter‑tall fat man wielding a 2‑meter‑long tiger‑head great blade, and silently sneaked toward the injured Luyan Valley disciples.

These are all Heavenly Essence—wounding one yields a hundred, killing one yields a thousand.

The Huanyu cultivators present holding the Penguin Transmission Jade Slip heard the clinking of Heavenly Essence collisions; seeing the information on the headline change again, they all shuddered violently, their hearts tempted beyond calm.

"Damn it, let's go all out."

"To get rich, one must first go mad, then step forward."

Huanyu cultivators wearing the Invisibility Anti-Spy Garment took on various forms, swarming from all directions toward the sky where Luyan Valley cultivators were responding to the Magic Snake Vine attack, lurking to assassinate.

Not long after, when they received the first hunting reward, they all felt their blood boil.

The Primordial Domain, excavated from the Huanyu for just over two years, has Heavenly Essence as the hard currency of the Primordial Spiritual Realm; it can be used not only for cultivation and maintaining sect formations, but also exchanged for all kinds of heavenly materials, earthly treasures, and technique weapons.

Although they are Earth Origin Realm cultivators standing at the peak of the Primordial Spiritual Realm's pyramid, in the Huanyu Cultivation World there are still the Heavenly Spirit Realm and Myriad Laws Realm above Earth Origin Realm; Earth Origin Realm is basically not even worth mentioning.

Now that they have obtained the Invisibility Anti-Spy Garment, they can conveniently use its unique invisibility function to change their attack methods, go to Reed Flame Valley to pluck tiger whiskers, thereby acquiring more Heavenly Essence to purchase cultivation resources, allowing their cultivation speed to rapidly reach the Great Perfection of the Earth Origin Realm, enabling their true body's Cultivation Level to enter the Heavenly Spirit Realm in the Huanyu cultivation world, and their soul body to swiftly advance to the next layer of the Giant Spirit Realm.

Huanyu cultivators wearing the Invisibility Anti-Spy Garment hide in the void; each time they hear the notification tone of Heavenly Essence arriving on their communication jade slip, they feel their blood boil, as if the Heaven's Gate is opening for them, providing all‑round support for their cultivation needs.

The four chief elders stationed among the Reed Flame Valley cultivators—Fan Ru, Liao Qing, Wei Jian, and Zhu Bi—gradually realized something was amiss.

The injured disciples who had struggled out of the Demon Snake Vine from the Upper Purity Sect, as soon as they stabilized their bodies, began to bleed from the corners of their mouths and fell toward the ground.

The deceased Reed Flame Valley disciples all showed fear, as if they had seen the most terrifying thing before death, dying with wide‑open eyes and twisted faces.

Fan Ru gazed at the brilliant spatial light all around, discovering that cold winds were rampant in the space, with no sign of any other sect's forces.

"How strange, could I have misjudged?" Fan Ru said, her face full of angry resentment.

Ah.

A disciple not far away was repelled by the Demon Snake Vine; that disciple, having just steadied himself in mid‑air, suddenly let out a miserable scream as a black blade pierced his chest. Strangely, the cultivator did not die but instead quickly flashed to another location.

This Reed Flame Valley cultivator, having just landed, suffered another vicious slash to the chest; frightened, he retreated straight back behind the four leading elders.

"How odd. He didn't even feel pain from a stab to the chest—does this guy have no heart?"

Two doubtful whispers came from the place where he had flashed.

This Reed Flame Valley disciple trembled all over, his scalp going numb.

"Ghost, it must be a ghost."

The wound on his chest proved that someone must have been hiding there just now, but no matter what cultivation level he employed, he could detect no abnormality in that direction.

"What's happening?"

Fan Ru, Liao Qing, Wei Jian, and Zhu Bi heard the mournful cries and hurried to the disciple's side to question him carefully.

"Are there ghosts in the space? Ghosts?" the disciple who had just been stabbed in the chest shouted, his face full of terror.

Zhu Bi grabbed the disciple's arm, used spiritual energy to probe inside, and his brows knotted into a shape resembling the Chinese character for river; the disciple's left and right chests had just been pierced by the blade, blood spattering forth like a spring.

Zhu Bi felt deeply conflicted, unsure whether the disciple was relatively fortunate to have his heart in the center of his body; otherwise, those two unexpected blows would have taken his life.

"Seniors hidden in the void, we come from Reed Flame Valley."

"Please give Reed Flame Valley some face; we will surely repay the favor." Fan Ru clasped her fists, bowed deeply toward the void, and spoke respectfully.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, three more Reed Flame Valley cultivators in the sky fell like broken‑kite strings, their bodies formed from souls disintegrating visibly fast.

"Stop shouting, those are reinforcements from the Slaughter Ghost Sect."

"Their goal is to slaughter the Reed Flame Valley cultivators without leaving a single piece of armor; the more you speak of disciples falling, the faster it happens."

From the void emerged a figure covered head to toe in black flames, wielding a pitch‑black ghost banner that clanged loudly; the previously surging dark clouds were instantly blanketed by rolling ghostly qi, and ghostly tides from all directions crashed down.

At the center of the ghost tide stood cultivators clad in black robes, their bodies shrouded in killing flames, a strange evil banner swaying above them; endless ferocious killing ghosts drifted out from it, baring blood‑thirsty fangs at the Reed Flame Valley cultivators.

The Huanyu cultivator wearing the Invisibility Anti-Spy Garment slowly exhaled.

Zheng Lin had not deceived them after all.

They only needed to wear the Invisibility Anti-Spy Garment, hide in the void, and ambush the seriously injured disciples of Reed Flame Valley to buy time for the Upper Purity Sect; soon the Slaughter Ghost Sect reinforcements would arrive and take the blame, and Reed Flame Valley would never suspect the Huanyu cultivators of causing their disciples' deaths.

Huanyu cultivators could also continue their exploits throughout the Primordial Spirit Realm using the Invisibility Anti-Spy Garment, earning rewards simply by hunting down Reed Flame Valley cultivators.

Countless Huanyu cultivators showed excitement; this was practically like finding a windfall from heaven—not only did they obtain the powerful Invisibility Anti-Spy Garment for free, they also took the chance to slaughter Reed Flame Valley cultivators and gain much Heavenly Essence.

The amount of Heavenly Essence shown on the Penguin‑brand communication jade slip shocked even the veteran lone cultivators who were the first to enter the Primordial Spirit Realm, leaving them thrilled and delighted.

Huanyu cultivators watched as Slaughter Ghost Sect cultivators poured down from all directions; the Invisibility Anti-Spy Garment and the sect's attire were eighty percent alike, differing only in minor details.

They secretly hunted Reed Flame Valley cultivators or other sect disciples in the Primordial Spirit Realm; even if discovered, people would suspect only the Slaughter Ghost Sect cultivators, never their own clan.

Moreover, the Slaughter Ghost Sect is one of Huanyu's ten major evil powers; even the ten orthodox sects—Yang‑Assisting Sect, Bibo Palace, Heavenly Dragon Gate, and Purple Mansion—dare to offend it simultaneously. Huanyu cultivators posing as Slaughter Ghost Sect disciples to carry out its business would think twice before provoking any second‑ or third‑rate Huanyu forces.

Can be counted.

The invisible anti-spying clothing that Zheng Lin provided them solved everything after they made a move, possibly bringing them trouble.

Those Huanyu cultivators hiding in the void, some slowly approached the reinforcements of the Shagui Sect, while others took the opportunity to leave the battlefield.

Sun Min gazed at the disheveled Fan Ru and other Lu Yan Valley cultivators, his eyes gradually narrowing.

「What exactly are you lot, why do you aggressively oppress the newly risen power of the Shagui Sect, the Shangqing Sect? 」

How's that?

"Is the Shagui Sect really not worthy of your attention?"

When Sun Min spoke, fierce killing ghost qi surged around him; behind him, a black sail unfurled in the wind, clattering down countless wandering souls and wild ghosts; above the nine heavens, it was as if demons danced in chaos, shrill ghostly wails shook the four directions, all of it rushing toward Fan Ru to envelop her.

Fan Ru was greatly startled, rose to resist, but discovered his body being pulled outward by a strong suction; he saw the soul within his spirit and flesh detach from his spirit body and quickly be dragged by the myriad ghosts toward the black sail.

The remaining disciples of Lu Yan Valley were greatly startled.

Fan Ru was one of the Lu Yan Valley's formidable elders; when facing the black sail, he had not even a chance to parry, which left all the Lu Yan Valley cultivators feeling a chill down their spines. (End of chapter)
