Chapter 247: Advancing to the Golden Core Middle Stage, Heavenly Demon Calamity Body

~29 min read 5,653 words

A night passed.

"You engaged in Dual Cultivation with your Dao Companion seven times last night; your minds were in harmony, your love deepened, and you have gained a certain amount of cultivation experience."

"Your Spirit Root aptitude has been greatly improved."

"You have obtained the other party's Yin Essence, and your cultivation has advanced to the Golden Core Middle Stage."

At this moment, a series of voices echoed from the depths of Zhou Sui's sea of consciousness.

Boom~~

Zhou Sui opened his eyes; his body was permeated with tyrannical Dharma Power fluctuations, and the surrounding Spirit Qi seemed to distort, transforming into the phantom images of Dragon Elephants, radiating a terrifying pressure.

Golden Core Middle Stage.

After a night of cultivation, and having obtained the extremely pure Yin Essence from the body of the Heavenly Demon Sect Saintess Chu Dieyi, his cultivation had successfully broken through.

It was as if everything had fallen into place, advancing from the Golden Core Early Stage to the Golden Core Middle Stage.

He sensed that the Golden Core deep within his Dantian Qi Sea had expanded by a full factor compared to before.

In essence, cultivation in the Golden Core Realm is the continuous absorption of Spirit Qi to strengthen the Golden Core.

Why is it so simple to break through from the Golden Core Early Stage to the Golden Core Middle Stage, yet countless Golden Core Cultivators remain trapped in the Golden Core Early Stage, unable to break through for a long time?

It is because advancing to the Golden Core Middle Stage requires using the Dharma Power within one's body to widen the internal volume of the Golden Core, allowing it to contain more Dharma Power.

If the internal volume of the Golden Core is not widened, the Golden Core Dharma Power cannot be strengthened.

Moreover, ordinary Golden Core Early Stage cultivators, due to inferior cultivation techniques, possess flawed Golden Cores, which results in their internal Golden Cores being unable to widen any further.

If they were to force an expansion, it would instead lead to the collapse of the Golden Core, causing them to shatter and die.

Therefore, no matter how long these Golden Core Cultivators practice, they remain at the Golden Core Early Stage and can never ascend to the Golden Core Middle Stage.

However, Zhou Sui did not have such a defect.

Because he formed his Golden Core autonomously, the Golden Core within his body was pure to the extreme, without any impurities, so there were naturally no problems with breaking through.

As long as the accumulation was sufficient, he could break through naturally.

Of course, under normal circumstances, he would have had to accumulate for at least a dozen years to gather enough Dharma Power to break through the bottleneck of the Golden Core Early Stage.

But now, obtaining the massive Yin Essence from the Heavenly Demon Sect Saintess helped him break through this bottleneck in an instant, allowing his cultivation to advance to the Golden Core Middle Stage.

It could be said that this Dual Cultivation saved him over a dozen years of bitter practice, and the benefits were immeasurable.

From here on, he only needed to continuously inhale and exhale Spirit Qi to convert it into massive Golden Core Dharma Power.

In this way, he could fill the internal space of his Golden Core.

When the Dharma Power within the Golden Core space was full again, he could perform the next breakthrough, expand the internal space of the Golden Core, and thus step into the Golden Core Late Stage.

"Right, let's check the data panel."

Thinking of this, Zhou Sui immediately opened his Virtual Panel.

【Host: Zhou Sui, Cultivation: Golden Core Middle Stage (Progress 1%), Longevity: 70 (7000) years】

【Aptitude: Five-element Spiritual Root (99%)】

【Sword Dao: Third-tier Middle Grade (40%)】

【Rune: Third-tier Lower Grade (30%)】

【Array Formation: Fourth-Tier Middle-Grade (50%)】

【Alchemist: Third-tier Middle Grade (90%)】

【Phantom Demon Transformation Art: Major Achievement (90%)】

【Five Elements Alchemy Formula: Grandmaster (60%)】

【Phantom Demon Heart Scripture: Demon Seed, Summon Demon】

【Seven Apertures Exquisite Book: Heart Eye Identifying Objects, Heart Eye Insight, Heart Eye Communicating Language】

【Fireball Technique: Grandmaster, Wind Blade Technique: Grandmaster, Golden Light Technique: Grandmaster, Cold Ice Technique: Grandmaster, Spring Breeze Turns to Rain Technique: Grandmaster, Lightning Summoning Technique: Grandmaster...】

【Infatuation Gu: Fourth-Tier Middle-Grade, Clone Gu: Third-tier Middle Grade, Wine Insect: Third-tier Middle Grade, Gold-Eating Insect: Third-tier Middle Grade, Book Gu: Third-tier Middle Grade, Dream Soul Gu: Third-Tier High-Grade, Dragon Elephant Gu: Third-tier Middle Grade, Golden Light Myriad Poison Gu: Third-tier Middle Grade, Teleportation Gu: Third-tier Middle Grade, Array Heart Gu: Fourth-Tier Upper Grade, Object Seeking Gu: Third-tier Middle Grade, Tribulation Thunder Gu.】

Clearly, after advancing to the Golden Core Middle Stage, his longevity had received a massive boost, reaching seven thousand years, which was already a quite astonishing number.

However, for Zhou Sui, he didn't feel much about it.

In any case, he was still far from exhausting his Longevity.

Compared to his long lifespan, he was currently just a small fry.

Thus, the vitality within his body was vigorous beyond compare, and his body was filled with massive Qi and blood power.

"My Spirit Root aptitude is about to break through."

Seeing the data above, Zhou Sui immediately widened his eyes, feeling very excited.

Because previously, his Spirit Root aptitude had always been difficult to improve; no, it should be said that the speed of improvement was very slow.

But now, it had actually jumped to 99%.

He was just one step away from stepping into the level of a Four-Grade Spirit Root.

The speed of progress was simply too fast, far beyond what it was before.

"Right, Chu Dieyi is a Heavenly Spirit Root cultivator."

Zhou Sui instantly thought of this possibility.

The reason his Spirit Root aptitude had been improving so slowly before was that the help his Dao Companions gave him was becoming less and less.

Moreover, the gap between his Spirit Root aptitude and theirs was not very large.

In this way, the speed of aptitude improvement was naturally very slow.

But now, Chu Dieyi was his first Heavenly Spirit Root Dao Companion.

And the Heavenly Spirit Root aptitude and a First Grade Spiritual Root were simply not on the same level.

The gap between the two was like that between an ordinary vocational college and Tsinghua or Peking University.

On the surface, they are all universities, but in reality, the difference is like heaven and earth.

Every Cultivator with a Heavenly Spirit Root is a darling of the heavens.

As long as they do not die, they will inevitably become a Golden Core, and may even become a Nascent Soul Cultivator.

Basically, over ninety percent of the Nascent Soul Ancestors currently alive possess a Heavenly Spirit Root.

A small portion have a Superior Spiritual Root.

As for Nascent Soul Ancestors with a middle-grade or lower-grade Spirit Root, there is not a single one.

This is the cruelty of the cultivation world.

Although many people say that aptitude does not determine everything, judging from the results, the Cultivators who occupy high positions are all geniuses.

Not one of them is a fool.

Unless one has a heaven-defying encounter, wanting to contend with a peerless genius is simply a fool's errand.

"I still need to find a Dao Companion with a Heavenly Spirit Root."

"With the help of a Heavenly Spirit Root Dao Companion, the speed at which my Spirit Root aptitude improves will be exceptionally fast."

"I estimate that after some time passes, I will be able to possess a Four-Grade Spirit Root aptitude; this is already the aptitude of a genius at the peak of middle-grade Spirit Roots."

Zhou Sui clenched his fists, feeling very excited.

To tell the truth, after cultivating to the Golden Core Realm, he felt more and more that his Spirit Root aptitude was a drag on him.

It was like installing a tractor engine in a sports car.

If he did not improve his Spirit Root aptitude as soon as possible, he feared it would also drag down his cultivation speed.

Of course, he would not deliberately do such a thing.

After all, his lifespan was incomparably long, so it would not matter at all even if his cultivation were a bit slower.

Letting things take their natural course is the way of cultivation.

He favored a method of cultivation where things come to fruition naturally.

"The power of my divine sense has also improved."

Zhou Sui's heart stirred; he perceived that compared to before, the power of his divine sense had also gained a massive increase, and now his divine sense coverage had expanded to a distance of three hundred li.

Compared to before, it was truly far too powerful.

If one added the assistance of Heart Eye Power, his current Heart Eye coverage was already three thousand li.

It is estimated that in terms of divine sense coverage, no Nascent Soul Cultivator could compare to him.

"I can be considered invincible in the Golden Core Realm now, right?"

"Even if I am not invincible, there are very few who can compare to me."

Zhou Sui clenched his fists, feeling the abundant Dharma Power in his body, his formidable physique, and his extraordinary divine sense power; in short, not many Golden Core Cultivators could compare to him.

Even an ancient Divine Beast at the Golden Core Realm would be no more than this.

Of course, he still kept a low profile and would not go around looking for trouble.

After all, there were still many Cultivators who could kill him.

For example, those Nascent Soul Ancestors, or even the Transformation God Cultivators who are like dragons that show their heads but never their tails.

If he were to encounter these monsters, he would likely be in grave danger.

After all, if he really went up against those monsters, they would not be polite, nor would they be soft-hearted; these old monsters were skilled at bullying the weak with their strength and relying on their realm to suppress others.

Often, Nascent Soul Cultivators of the same realm rarely fight to the death; what is often seen is a Nascent Soul Ancestor slaughtering a city in a rage, frequently bullying the weak.

In short, after reaching their realm, they bully the weak if they can.

If they cannot bully the weak, they run away; they will not fight you to the death.

Therefore, he remained very cautious.

Until he is invincible in the world, he cannot act rashly.

If he encountered some Nascent Soul Ancestors who do not observe martial ethics, he would be in trouble.

The other party would not be polite to him at all.

"The Gu Insects have also improved."

Zhou Sui also sensed his Gu Insects; following the improvement of his cultivation, they had also successively advanced, each having improved by a small realm, and their abilities had also increased quite a bit.

Especially the power of the Clone Gu; after advancing to Third-tier Middle Grade, it could gestate two hundred and eighty-eight clones.

With a large number of clones, they could also help him do more things.

Clearly, with the advancement of the Gu Insects' power, his own combat strength had also increased by a large margin.

"Mm."

At this moment, Chu Dieyi also slowly opened her beautiful eyes; after a night of tossing and turning, she had finally woken up.

Seeing her current situation, her pretty face could not help but flush red.

She also did not expect that she would actually do such a bold thing last night.

It would be one thing to fancy a man, but she had actually forced herself upon him.

If the fellow sisters of the Heavenly Demon Sect knew about this, they would definitely laugh at her.

However, all of this was worth it.

At this moment, she cast the Heavenly Son's Qi-Gazing Technique to look at the Luck on her body, and immediately discovered that the bad luck on her body seemed to have completely dissipated, replaced by Luck that was dense to the extreme.

Originally, she was a person plagued by bad luck; if she had attempted to advance to the Nascent Soul Realm, she definitely would not have been able to pass the Heart Demon Tribulation and the Heavenly Thunder Tribulation.

She would inevitably have encountered Heavenly Punishment and died under the Thunder Tribulation.

That was why her master previously said that her opportunity to form a Nascent Soul was outside, not within the sect.

But now, she actually saw the hope of surviving the Thunder Tribulation.

That is to say, it was precisely this man before her who helped her overcome the tribulation, allowing her to logically advance to the Nascent Soul.

The so-called Son of Heaven Qi-Observing Technique is a unique art; by using this art, one can see the Luck on the bodies of Cultivators.

However, to learn this art, one must possess a unique talent.

Only those with immense Luck or those plagued by misfortune can learn it.

And her Heavenly Demon Calamity Body brought her immense misfortune.

That is why she learned this art.

Not for anything else, just to see if she was still plagued by misfortune.

"Could it really be as Master said, that I have found the opportunity to form a Nascent Soul?"

Chu Dieyi was very excited.

Even though she is a Heavenly Spirit Root Cultivator with astonishing aptitude, it does not mean she will definitely become a Nascent Soul Cultivator.

Since ancient times, countless Heavenly Spirit Root Cultivators have fallen at the hurdle of the Nascent Soul.

They either died before the Heart Demon Tribulation or died during the Heavenly Thunder Tribulation.

In short, if preparations are not complete, advancing to Nascent Soul will certainly fail, even for a Heavenly Spirit Root Cultivator.

Thinking of this, she cast the Son of Heaven Qi-Observing Technique to look at the Luck on Zhou Sui's body.

But she was stunned instantly, because she could see nothing at all, as if this man had no Luck on his body, presenting a state of void and chaos.

But this was completely abnormal.

Because every living being has Luck; whether it is good fortune or misfortune, it will exist.

Yet this man before her had no such thing.

No, perhaps it exists.

It is just that her own level is not yet high enough to see through the Luck of the man before her.

But from this point, one can see that this man is definitely not an ordinary Cultivator.

"What are you looking at?"

Zhou Sui blinked; just now he had a feeling of being spied on by Chu Dieyi.

But it was only for an instant, and this feeling disappeared.

"Just now I cast the Son of Heaven Qi-Observing Technique to look at the Luck on Zhou Lang's body."

Chu Dieyi honestly stated what she had done.

"There is actually such an art in the world that can see the Luck on others?"

Zhou Sui was a bit surprised.

"Of course there is."

"Luck does indeed exist on Cultivators."

"Some people have immense Luck, and even if their Spirit Root aptitude is ordinary, they may have a Major Achievement in the future."

"If someone has shallow fortune and a thin fate, then even with superior Spirit Roots, they will die halfway."

"As far as I know, in distant continents, some Transformation Deity sects specifically test the Luck of their Disciples."

"Only if the Luck is sufficient can they join the sect."

"Otherwise, even if their Spirit Root aptitude is good, they are not allowed to join the sect."

"It is just that very few people can truly master this art, and it cannot be popularized at all."

Chu Dieyi explained.

She also relied on her special constitution to learn this Son of Heaven Qi-Observing Technique.

Not only can she see the Luck on her own body, but she can also see the Luck on others.

"If you really mastered this ability, why were you hunted down by Xuanyin Sect Disciples?"

Zhou Sui asked curiously.

He felt that mastering this ability should allow one to turn danger into safety.

"Zhou Lang, my ability can only see the Luck on my own body; it does not mean I can turn danger into safety."

"Nor does it mean I can predict the future."

"When I am plagued by misfortune, I usually stay inside the sect and dare not go out to travel at all."

"Only when the misfortune dissipates do I dare to go out."

"But I have no idea when the misfortune will arrive or in what form it will appear."

"The reason I was deceived before was perhaps that my mind was clouded by misfortune, causing me to lose my previous caution."

"That is why I fell for the Xuanyin Sect's trap."

"No, perhaps it is not just that."

"After all, fortune and misfortune are interdependent; although I did fall into the Xuanyin Sect Disciples' trap last time and faced a crisis of death, I met Zhou Lang at the critical moment."

"From this perspective, perhaps it was also my opportunity."

Chu Dieyi looked at Zhou Sui with burning eyes.

"Heavenly Demon Calamity Body, is this the special constitution you possess?"

"Although this constitution will encounter various calamities."

"Once the calamity is overcome, one will obtain infinite Luck."

"That is why your cultivation speed exceeds that of ordinary people."

Zhou Sui also learned about the special constitution on Chu Dieyi's body; he was also suddenly enlightened, not expecting that such a special constitution actually existed in the world of immortal cultivation.

Since she was a child, Chu Dieyi had been plagued by bad luck, even getting her teeth stuck while drinking water.

But every time she overcame a misfortune, she would encounter a miraculous encounter.

So it is hard to judge whether this constitution is good or bad.

However, he also knew that things like Luck truly existed in the world.

Because within the Gu God Bowl, there was a Luck Gu.

If one could refine the Luck Gu, one could master the good and bad fortune of the world and gather the Luck of heaven and earth.

At that time, no matter what one did, one would be able to turn bad luck into good and receive the protection of the heavens.

It was a pity that, let alone finding the main materials for the Luck Gu, no one had even heard of them.

Even with the power of the Object Seeking Gu, it was temporarily impossible to find the main materials for the Luck Gu.

Therefore, he could only set this special Gu Insect aside.

"After Dual Cultivation with Zhou Lang, I feel that the bad luck on my body has completely vanished."

"Now, infinite Luck is gathered upon me."

"In other words, this is a great opportunity for me to break through and ascend to the Nascent Soul realm."

"If I miss this opportunity, I don't know when I would have to wait until."

Chu Dieyi said with great excitement.

She had waited for such a long time, and finally, the golden opportunity for her to form her Nascent Soul had arrived.

Therefore, she would not let it slip by.

Only once she became a Nascent Soul Cultivator would she truly be considered a person of power in the Heavenly Demon Sect.

In this sea area, only Nascent Soul Cultivators were the true chess players; other Cultivators were merely chess pieces.

Only by becoming a Nascent Soul could one master one's own destiny.

"But weren't you planning to return to the Heavenly Demon Sect?"

Zhou Sui asked.

"I did have that plan before, but now it is different."

"The opportunity to form the Nascent Soul has arrived, and I believe my master will understand."

"Moreover, there is a Fourth-tier Spirit Vein here; without a doubt, this is also a good place to form the Nascent Soul."

"There will be no lack of Spirit Qi from heaven and earth at all."

Chu Dieyi felt more and more that this place was a blessed land for her to form her Nascent Soul.

"Alright, I understand."

"Next, I will do my utmost to help you form your Nascent Soul."

Zhou Sui nodded.

Now, there were a total of two female Cultivators in the entire Samsung Island Group planning to form their Nascent Souls: Chu Dieyi and Lin Yazhu.

The Fourth-tier High-grade Spiritual Vein was completely sufficient to satisfy both of them forming their Nascent Souls at the same time.

It had to be said that this was also a huge benefit for Zhou Sui.

Because if his two Dao Companions succeeded in forming their Nascent Souls, he would have two Nascent Soul Dao Companions.

No, if one included Taohua Shangren, that would be three Nascent Soul Dao Companions.

At that time, wouldn't he be able to walk sideways across the Canglan Sea?!

Just thinking about this point made him incredibly excited.

"Thank you, Zhou Lang."

Chu Dieyi looked at Zhou Sui affectionately with a pair of beautiful eyes.

She felt that after becoming one with the man before her, even their souls seemed to have merged into one.

Before, there had been more or less some estrangement, but now, they were intimate without any barriers, as if they had known each other for hundreds of years.

It was as if she could entrust her very life and death to the other party.

For her, coming from the Heavenly Demon Sect, this was an inconceivable feeling.

After all, as a Demonic Sect cultivator, only believing in oneself and trusting no one was already an ironclad rule.

But now, she had a different feeling; she could entrust her back to the other party.

…………

At noon.

After Chu Dieyi and Zhou Sui were fully dressed, they walked out of the quiet room and came into the living room.

At this time, Ji Bingyu and the others were also preparing a meal.

The table was covered with dense, delicious food, the fragrance assaulting the nose.

"Who is this?"

Immediately, Ji Bingyu and the others saw the beautiful, fairy-like Chu Dieyi at the first glance; they all had a familiar feeling about Chu Dieyi, as if they had met before.

But it seemed they did not know her.

The reason for this feeling was that Chu Dieyi had previously used her Charm Technique on everyone in the Xianxia Sect.

That was why she had been able to enter and exit the Xianxia Sect as she pleased, just like it was her own home.

"Oh, she is Chu Dieyi, the Heavenly Demon Sect Saintess."

Zhou Sui briefly introduced Chu Dieyi's background and identity.

What?!

Hearing this, the five women—Ji Bingyu, Mu Ziyan, Xia Jingyan, Leng Yuexi, and Shen Biqian—were all speechless, completely not knowing what to say; the man before them was clearly a homebody.

He stayed in his Cave Abode to cultivate all day long and almost never went out to walk around.

They had originally thought he wouldn't attract any trouble, but they didn't expect that, unknowingly, he had actually hooked up with the Heavenly Demon Sect Saintess.

This ability to pick up women was simply too great.

Although they had long known about their husband's attraction to female Cultivators, they still felt incomparably shocked.

If her husband were to truly let go and flirt with women, I fear three thousand wives and concubines would be no problem at all.

"Hello, Sister Chu."

"Welcome to Xianxia City."

"From now on, just treat this place as your own home."

"Since you are our husband's Dao Companion, you are our sister."

Xia Jingyan said sweetly, welcoming Chu Dieyi to join them.

Although she felt very surprised, she quickly accepted this woman.

After all, she had long been very clear about her husband's personality; he was a pure philanderer.

However, she had not expected that the famous Heavenly Demon Sect Saintess would actually take a fancy to her husband.

One could only say that her husband's charm was too great.

Even the Heavenly Demon Sect Saintess could not escape it.

"Thank you, sisters."

Chu Dieyi also breathed a sigh of relief; she had truly been afraid that these sisters would not welcome her.

Now it seemed that she had indeed overthought it.

Immediately, the women began to take their seats, tasting the delicious food on the table, all kinds of rare delicacies.

"Ahem, alright, let us begin our cultivation."

"After all, as a Cultivator, one needs to cultivate bitterly every day without ceasing; one cannot be slack for even a single day."

After eating and drinking their fill, Zhou Sui said brazenly, looking at his several beautiful Dao Companions, his heart filled with a sense of satisfaction.

He now had the feeling of a decadent monarch.

Of course, the most important thing was that he wanted to improve his Spirit Root aptitude as quickly as possible.

Once he advanced to a Four-Grade Spirit Root, his cultivation speed would certainly receive a huge boost.

There was nothing better for improving his aptitude than cultivating bitterly with his Dao Companions.

"Scoundrel."

Hearing this, Chu Dieyi and the other Dao Companions blushed, not knowing what to say.

This dog of a man was truly diligent; he never slacked off for a single day.

It was fortunate that this man was a Body Cultivator with a strong body, otherwise, how could he cultivate bitterly day and night like this?

However, they did not refuse; this was not only the duty of a Dao Companion, but they also enjoyed this kind of cultivation.

Late at night.

After a bout of bitter cultivation, Chu Dieyi and the other Dao Companions fell into a deep sleep, their pretty faces flushed red.

Clearly, the effect of this bitter cultivation was quite good, and each of their cultivation bases had improved significantly.

"Is it still impossible to break through?"

"Isn't it only short by 1%?"

Zhou Sui felt a bit of regret; he had originally thought he was about to break through to a Four-Grade Spirit Root, after all, it was only a 1% progress gap, so if he cultivated bitterly with his Dao Companions, wouldn't he be able to advance very soon?

But he had still underestimated the difficulty of that 1%.

In fact, this was also a major bottleneck that required a large amount of time and constant impact to break through.

The transformation of a Spirit Root could not be achieved overnight.

It still required years of accumulation and subtle improvement before one could break through in one go.

If he wanted to advance to a Four-Grade Spirit Root, he feared it would take several more years.

"Forget it, forget it, let's just continue to cultivate bitterly."

"One cannot be impatient."

Zhou Sui took a deep breath, calming his slightly agitated heart.

"Hmm?!"

Just at this moment, Zhou Sui's heart stirred; his Heart Eye Power spread out, covering the entire peak of the Xianxia Sect, reflecting this space like a mirror.

Immediately, under the perception of his Heart Eye, five uninvited guests appeared.

Two Golden Core Late Stage Cultivators and three Golden Core Middle Stage Cultivators.

Their bodies were permeated with an extremely evil, bloody aura; clearly, they were all Demonic Cultivators whose hands were stained with unknown amounts of blood, and they were certainly beings who killed without blinking.

These five Golden Core Cultivators snuck into the Xianxia Sect silently, heading straight for Xianxia Peak.

"Are there actually Golden Core Robber Cultivators who dare to invade my Xianxia Sect?"

"Could it be that the deaths of Chixue Laoguai and the others last time did not deter those Golden Core Robber Cultivators?"

"Right, it seems the three Golden Core Cultivators of Xianxia City have already headed to Julu Island and arrived at the front line."

"So, in the eyes of outsiders, the Xianxia Sect has no Golden Core Cultivators guarding it, and thus it has become a soft persimmon?"

"But this is a bit too fast."

"Could it be related to Chu Dieyi's Heavenly Demon Calamity Body? Does this special constitution not only bring misfortune to herself but also to those around her?"

"Especially her Dao Companions, who would be stained with even more misfortune."

Zhou Sui could not help but think of Chu Dieyi's special constitution.

It was precisely because of this constitution that Chu Dieyi was a jinx in the Heavenly Demon Sect, and no one dared to go near her.

They were afraid of being stained by the misfortune on Chu Dieyi and thus inviting a great disaster.

Now he had also slightly perceived the formidable nature of this constitution.

"However, although this constitution brings calamities, it also brings opportunities."

"Could it be that these five Golden Core Robber Cultivators are gift-giving boys, carrying the Treasure I need?"

"Forget it, forget it, thinking too much is useless; better to just finish them off and loot the Treasure on their bodies."

Zhou Sui stroked his chin, unable to help but think of this point.

At this moment, his heart stirred, and he immediately had his several clones take action to ambush these five Golden Core Robber Cultivators.

…………

Time moves back just a little bit.

Among the mountain peaks outside the Xianxia Sect, five uninvited guests immediately appeared.

They were the famous Five Scorpion demonic cultivators of the Black Fiend Sect, namely Chixie Zhenren, Heixie Zhenren, Lanxie Zhenren, Baixie Zhenren, and Lvxie Zhenren, and so on.

These Five Scorpion demonic cultivators were simply wicked to the extreme, killing as if mowing grass.

Relying on their poison arts, they had once slaughtered over a dozen islands and killed who knows how many people.

Their cruelty had already resounded throughout this sea area, to the extent that it could stop a child from crying.

Added to the fact that they were cultivators of the Black Fiend Sect, they had a Nascent Soul Sect backing them.

Their methods of operation were naturally even more unscrupulous, and ordinary cultivators simply could not do anything to them.

"Is this the Xianxia Sect? The Spirit Qi is actually this dense; it must be at least a Third-rank High-grade Spirit Vein, right? Is this sect this lucky? They actually obtained such an island from the Wuji Alliance?"

Chixie Zhenren was a bit surprised.

"How could the Wuji Alliance be so kind? This is just an outer force; getting an island with a Third-rank Low-grade Spirit Vein would be considered not bad. The reason it is a Third-rank High-grade Spirit Vein means the Wuji Alliance misjudged it—the Spirit Vein level here is definitely higher, or perhaps the Xianxia Sect's Array Master is highly skilled and used an Array Formation to increase the concentration of Spirit Qi here."

Heixie Zhenren said in a deep voice.

"Indeed, I heard that the Xianxia Sect has a Third-tier Array Master; it seems this is definitely the masterpiece of that Array Master."

"Fortunately, the three Golden Core Cultivators of Xianxia City have already left."

"Otherwise, how would we dare to break into the Xianxia Sect, which possesses a Third-tier Array?"

Lanxie Zhenren laughed with a cackle.

"To be honest, are you sure there are no Golden Core Cultivators left in Xianxia City?"

"Don't capsize in the gutter."

Baixie Zhenren asked very cautiously.

"Need you ask? It was definitely confirmed long ago."

"Previously, the Wuji Alliance headquarters issued a conscription order, summoning all Golden Core True Persons from the major islands to leave."

"This included Xianxia City; all three Golden Core True Persons were summoned away."

"In other words, the strongest cultivators on this island right now are only at the Foundation Establishment Realm."

"Even for the sake of caution, I contacted some moles staying in the Wuji Alliance."

"They are also watching those three female Golden Core Cultivators; they are indeed executing a mission for the Wuji Alliance."

"Unless they can use Instant Movement, it is impossible for them to return to the Xianxia Sect."

Lvxie Zhenren said triumphantly.

Regarding such life-and-death matters, he was naturally very cautious and had already utilized various intelligence networks.

"Not bad, not bad; if that is the case, then that is great."

"It is said that Xianxia City produces Fine Foundation Establishment Pills and has Third-tier Spirit Wine, and the population inside exceeds ten million."

"It can be said that Xianxia City makes money every day; who knows how many Spirit Stones they earn every year—they are simply overflowing with wealth."

"Previously, they even spent a large amount of Spirit Stones to acquire Heavy Water Crystal and Xuan Yin Crystal."

"One can imagine just how astonishing their wealth is."

"If we can loot the Xianxia Sect's treasury clean, then we will have the resources for our Golden Core to Nascent Soul transformation."

Chixie Zhenren's eyes revealed an extremely greedy expression.

In fact, these cultivators of the Black Fiend Sect had long had their eyes on the wealthy Xianxia City.

It was a pity that Xianxia City previously had a fierce reputation, having killed Golden Core Cultivators like Chixue Laoguai, which deterred who knows how many Robber Cultivators.

Plus, with the protection of a Third-tier High-grade grand Array, how could they dare to force their way in?

Unless a Nascent Soul Cultivator took action, no one could do anything to Xianxia City.

But now it is different.

Because the three great female Golden Core Cultivators of Xianxia City were summoned away by the Wuji Alliance, Xianxia City is now leaderless and only has the combat power of Foundation Establishment Cultivators; without a doubt, this is a great opportunity.

Taking advantage of the fact that Xianxia City lacks the protection of Golden Core Cultivators, they brazenly took action to loot the Xianxia Sect treasury.

By the time those three female Golden Core Cultivators know about this, they will have long since fled.

Therefore, the five great Golden Core True Persons decided without hesitation to pull off this job.
