Chapter 265: Transformation God Sect Kurong Sect, Chuntao Encounters Danger
Another month passed.
The news of the Transformation God Relic's emergence grew increasingly intense.
It was not just the Nascent Soul factions that knew of this matter; even many Loose Cultivators were aware of it.
After all, such news simply could not be kept hidden.
Many Loose Cultivators flocked to the area in droves.
After all, for Loose Cultivators like them, a Transformation God Relic meant countless opportunities.
Obtaining just a few opportunities could allow one to reach Foundation Establishment, or even form a Golden Core.
Therefore, more and more Cultivators gathered throughout the Samsung Island Group, creating a sense that a storm was brewing.
At this very moment, in a guest hall on Xianxia Peak of the Xianxia Sect.
Zhou Sui, along with Leng Yuexi and others, gathered together to discuss this matter.
"Husband, I previously gathered some information."
"This Transformation God Relic is said to be the former site of the Kurong Sect, a Transformation God sect from the Ancient Era."
"This sect was once the hegemon of the Canglan Sea during the Ancient Era, and many Transformation God Cultivators appeared within it."
"Therefore, the appearance of this Transformation God Relic has attracted the attention of many Nascent Soul Ancestors."
"I fear it won't be long before this sea area is crowded with Nascent Soul Ancestors."
Lin Yazhu said in a deep voice.
She had also temporarily ended her seclusion because of this; after all, with so many Nascent Soul Ancestors gathering in this sea area, no one knew what would happen next, and now was not the time for seclusion.
"Actually, it may not necessarily be a bad thing."
"The Nascent Soul Cultivators of the five great sects are gathering here."
"It is said they intend to join forces to crush the Sea Clan army."
"Because of this, the various Golden Core True Persons who were forcibly conscripted by the Wuji Alliance have also been released."
Zhou Sui had also received quite a bit of inside information from Taohua Shangren.
It was precisely because of this regulation that his clone could withdraw from Julu Island, and Lin Yazhu, Shen Biqian, and Leng Yuexi could appear in public without worrying about exposing the secrets of his clone.
"Oh, in that case, the threat from the Sea Clan can be considered to have come to an end."
"It is a pity that one wave has barely subsided when another rises."
"How could the former site of the Kurong Sect appear in our Samsung Island Group?"
Leng Yuexi was very helpless.
Resolving the threat of the Sea Clan was indeed a great thing in itself.
Yet, that Transformation God Relic happened to be within hundreds of thousands of miles of the Samsung Island Group.
Do not think that such a distance seems very far.
But for Nascent Soul Cultivators, such a distance is already quite close.
"Rest assured, although our Samsung Island Group is indeed very close to that Transformation God Relic."
"Those Nascent Soul Cultivators will not appear within our Samsung Island Group."
"Because there are also many desolate islands near that Transformation God Relic."
"They will likely establish bases on those desolate islands."
"There is no need to abandon what is near to seek what is far and seize our Samsung Island Group."
"The only thing that needs to be worried about is those Loose Cultivators."
"Those Loose Cultivators from all over the Canglan Sea are all lawless characters."
"Perhaps someone might want to kill and seize treasures in Xianxia City."
Zhou Sui had already realized that Xianxia City would not be peaceful during this period.
After all, a large influx of population at once would also bring a certain degree of problems to the public security of Xianxia City.
If the strength is insufficient, perhaps those Loose Cultivators might want to burn, kill, and loot in Xianxia City.
"Mm, we will be careful during this time."
"We will not let outside Cultivators destroy our peace."
Leng Yuexi and the others were murderous; they had already treated this place as their home, so naturally, they would not allow outsiders to destroy the peace and tranquility of this place.
If one were to become their enemy, then there would only be a dead end.
…………
At the same time.
The figure of Chuntao also appeared near the Transformation God Relic.
She had received orders from the Island Master to come to this place to scout for information on the Transformation God Relic.
As a Golden Core Late Stage Cultivator, she was naturally bold due to her high level of skill.
Looking at the Transformation God Relic wrapped in mist, with rays of restriction light appearing from time to time, containing terrifying destructive power, she also felt a little bit terrified.
Even though she was a Golden Core Cultivator, if she were to be hit by this, it would definitely mean death and the dissipation of her soul.
"It really is a Transformation God Relic; it is truly too dangerous."
"Young Master Zhou was right; such a Transformation God Relic is not something a Golden Core Cultivator can covet."
"The Five-Tier Array here alone is impossible to break."
"It is better to send this news back and let the Island Master decide."
Chuntao took a deep breath.
She sensed that rays of escape light had appeared near this Transformation God Relic.
Clearly, more and more Cultivators were approaching this Transformation God Relic, wanting to get to the bottom of it.
If she were to remain here any longer, there was no telling what might happen.
Thinking of this, she immediately wanted to take out her Third-tier Flying Boat and return to Xianxia City.
"Interesting. I never expected to find a beauty like you in such a remote sea area."
"This is truly a blessing from the heavens."
"If this young master is not mistaken, you must be Fellow Daoist Chuntao of Taohua Island."
Just at this moment, three male Golden Core Cultivators suddenly flew in from the distance—one at the Golden Core Late Stage and two at the Golden Core Middle Stage.
They instantly surrounded Chuntao.
Each of them was suffused with a terrifying baleful aura, looking Chuntao up and down, appraising her proud figure.
They did not hide the greed deep within their eyes in the slightest.
It was as if they could not wait to swallow Chuntao into their own bellies.
"Who are you people?"
Chuntao narrowed her eyes, staring at these three Golden Core Cultivators; she could sense the aura on these cultivators, and it was clear they were all Demon Cultivators, very likely members of the Demon Sect.
"Oh, I am Lv Shiju, the head Disciple under Ancestor Feilian of the Black Fiend Hall."
"These two are my junior brothers, Jin Shaoding and Wei Yunda."
A jade-faced Cultivator smiled slightly as he introduced himself, his body permeated with waves of evil energy.
"You are Demon Cultivators from the Black Fiend Hall?"
Chuntao's pupils contracted.
As a trusted aide to Taohua Shangren, she naturally knew that the Sea Clan and the Black Fiend Hall had formed a partnership.
Her own master had even personally beheaded two Nascent Soul Ancestors of the Black Fiend Hall.
It could be said that a blood feud had been forged with the Black Fiend Hall.
Although this matter had nothing to do with her personally, as a member of Taohua Island, she naturally bore such karma.
However, she had not expected that she would only come to investigate news of the ruins.
To be so unlucky as to encounter three Golden Core Cultivators from the Black Fiend Hall.
And looking at the three of them, it was clear they would not let her off easily.
"Haha, our luck is quite good today; we actually ran into someone from Taohua Island."
"You might not know this yet."
"This time, your Island Master killed two of our Black Fiend Hall's Nascent Soul Ancestors, and she has already been placed on our Black Fiend Hall's must-kill list; of course, we cannot do anything to Taohua Shangren."
"But killing you subordinates of Taohua Shangren is not much of a problem."
"Every female Cultivator on your Taohua Island has already been placed on our Black Fiend Hall's wanted list."
"If we can capture you alive and take you back, I fear there will be heavy rewards."
The jade-faced Cultivator Lv Shiju looked at Chuntao with great smugness, feeling that his luck today was simply too good.
"Want to capture me alive?"
"Stop spouting nonsense."
"I am Chuntao of Taohua Island; how could I be compared to you Demon Cultivators of the Black Fiend Hall?"
Chuntao immediately took out a three-foot green blade from her person; this was the Upper Grade Spirit Treasure Golden Peak Sword, its edge exposed, sharp and peerless, capable of piercing anything in its path.
Waves of sword Qi emanated from her body.
Clearly, her status as a Golden Core Late Stage Cultivator was not fake, but something she had cultivated through real effort.
Although she did not have much combat experience due to the protection of Taohua Shangren.
She made up for it with a deep background and numerous Treasures.
She was not someone an ordinary Golden Core Cultivator could compare to.
"Haha, simply laughable."
"Just a female Cultivator raised in a sheltered boudoir, yet you dare to fight us from the Black Fiend Hall."
"It is truly a joke."
Seeing this scene, the jade-faced Cultivator Lv Shiju, along with the Golden Core Cultivators Jin Shaoding and Wei Yunda, burst into loud laughter; they were Demon Cultivators of the Black Fiend Hall, battle-hardened and forged in mountains of corpses and seas of blood.
They could see at a glance that this Taohua Island female Cultivator was full of flaws.
Even with the cultivation of the Golden Core Late Stage, she could not possibly be a match for Cultivators with their level of combat experience.
Perhaps she could bully the weak.
But wanting to contend with Cultivators of the same rank was simply a pipe dream.
Boom~~
But just at this moment, invisible soul spikes suddenly appeared in the Void.
Soul Secret Technique—Void Soul Thorn!
The one who struck was none other than a clone of Zhou Sui.
In fact, Chuntao had a clone left behind by Zhou Sui on her person, transformed into a rope and coiled around Chuntao's hair.
Basically, every Dao Companion would have a clone of Zhou Sui protecting them to avoid unexpected dangers.
After all, this was also Zhou Sui's habit: consider defeat before considering victory.
Sure enough, such a habit saved Chuntao's life.
The Void Soul Thorn, having advanced to the Major Achievement realm, was undoubtedly even more powerful than it had been ten years ago.
Not only had its power increased several times over, but its speed had also increased.
The soul spikes, with astonishing speed and without a sound, instantly struck the three Golden Core Demon Cultivators.
"What?!"
"Damn it, we've been tricked; this woman is playing the pig to eat the tiger."
"Vile woman, you actually used a Soul-attacking Secret Technique on us?!"
The expressions of Lv Shiju, Jin Shaoding, and Wei Yunda changed instantly; because the events happened far too quickly, and coupled with the launch of the Void Soul Thorn, there had been no warning at all.
Therefore, they had no way to react in time.
Each of them felt as if their heads were splitting, as if their very Souls were being torn apart, producing incomparable pain.
In an instant, they let out shrill screams, their bodies almost unable to move.
"Do it, slaughter them."
At this moment, the clone Zhou Sui sent a Divine Sense Transmission to Chuntao.
"What? Could it be Young Master Zhou?"
Chuntao was startled; she did not know why she had heard Zhou Sui's Divine Sense Transmission in this place, when clearly Zhou Sui should have been staying at Xianxia Peak at this very moment.
But now, she could not care about so much.
Because she also knew that this was a golden opportunity; seeing the shrill screams of Lv Shiju, Jin Shaoding, and Wei Yunda, it was clearly a case of taking advantage of their illness to take their lives.
Boom~~
The next second, she held the Upper Grade Spirit Treasure Golden Peak Sword, circulated the vast Golden Core Dharma Power within her body, ignited a terrifying sword Qi, and slashed toward the three of them with one strike.
Thud!
With just that one sword strike, Lv Shiju, Jin Shaoding, and Wei Yunda widened their eyes, their hair standing on end as they sensed the crisis of death; they wanted to activate the defensive Dharma Treasures on their bodies to block this blow.
Regrettably, they had been struck by Zhou Sui's Void Soul Thorn, their heads splitting with pain, and they felt unable to circulate any Dharma Power in their bodies, only able to watch helplessly as this sword strike landed on them.
With a squelch, their heads immediately flew off, the cuts smooth, and blood sprayed out as if it were worthless.
Following that, their heads fell from mid-air, crashing onto the sea surface and splashing up waves of water.
Their eyes were wide open, revealing expressions of shock, terror, and disbelief.
Clearly, they died with their eyes wide open.
To tell the truth, they did indeed die very unjustly.
Normally, relying on the combined strength of the three of them as Golden Core demonic Cultivators, a mere Golden Core female Cultivator from Taohua Island would naturally be no match, the kind of thing that could be easily captured.
Regrettably, they had encountered Zhou Sui's clone.
With intent calculated against the unsuspecting, they had encountered a sneak attack and were killed instantly as a result.
All the various means they possessed could not be deployed, and they met their end here just like that.
"I, I actually killed three Golden Core demonic Cultivators?!"
Chuntao felt her hands trembling slightly, her beautiful eyes filled with both excitement and fear.
To tell the truth, she had not expected herself to be so fierce.
In her daily life as a Cultivator of Taohua Island, staying within the Wuji Alliance Sea Area, no one dared to provoke her.
Basically, she did not have many opportunities to take action.
After all, no fool dared to offend the maidservant of a Nascent Soul Cultivator; that was not much different from seeking death.
Therefore, she also had a measure of her own combat power in her heart.
If she were fighting Cultivators weaker than herself, then she should have no major problems, fully capable of bullying the weak with her strength.
But if compared to those Golden Core demonic Cultivators of the same rank, she did not know how far she fell short.
Just a moment ago, she had even felt a bit of despair.
She was even thinking that if she were captured alive by the other party, she would definitely commit suicide.
No matter what, she could not be humiliated by demonic Cultivators.
But now, with just one sword strike, she had beheaded three Golden Core demonic Cultivators.
It seemed she was unprecedentedly fierce.
"No, that's not right, it's not that my combat power is strong."
"It's that someone is helping in the shadows."
"Young Master Zhou, was it you, Young Master Zhou, who helped?"
Chuntao was also an ice-snow intelligent woman, and naturally realized the various suspicious points from just now.
If it were only herself, it would naturally be impossible to finish off three Golden Core demonic Cultivators.
But if that mysterious and unfathomable Young Master Zhou were helping, it was not an impossible matter.
"Stop shouting."
"Hurry and leave this sea area."
"Behind these three is a Nascent Soul Ancestor of the Black Fiend Hall—Feilian Laozu."
"That Feilian Laozu is very likely nearby."
"Now that you have killed his three trusted subordinates, you might be hunted for revenge by Feilian Laozu."
"Return to the Xianxia Sect immediately."
The clone Zhou Sui reminded her.
"No, I cannot return to the Xianxia Sect."
"One person does the deed, one person bears the consequences."
"If I return to the Xianxia Sect, it will definitely bring you great trouble."
"I cannot implicate you."
Chuntao was very clear on this point, her gaze very resolute.
If Feilian Laozu truly wanted to avenge his disciple, and she were to return to the Xianxia Sect, then the Xianxia Sect would definitely be implicated, and perhaps it would be wiped out by Feilian Laozu.
At that time, it would not just be her who died.
Therefore, she wanted to leave this sea area, as far away as possible.
Even if she were caught by the other party, it would only be herself who died.
Now that she had already finished off three of the other party's Golden Core disciples, it could be considered worth it.
"Don't play the hero."
"A mere Nascent Soul Ancestor, that's nothing at all."
"If he dares to enter Xianxia City, then he is on a dead-end path, never to return."
"I have long since set up a Fourth-tier Great Array in the Samsung Island Group, fearing no Nascent Soul Cultivator."
The clone Zhou Sui explained.
Thanks to book friend Yijian Chongqi and book friend hexing for the tips.
Continuing the ten-thousand-word burst today.
