Chapter 573

Several months later.

A figure rode the air and suddenly arrived at the East Peak of Poison Dragon Slope.

"Where are the Five Friends of Floating Clouds?"

A clear and bright voice rang out.

Uncle Tie Luo Sanren, Song Yunqian, Hu Liuniang, Lv Feng, and others hurriedly walked out, looking at this figure, all with horrified expressions: "Physical flight, Level 8 Qi-Sensing?"

A Level 8 Qi-Sensing cultivator has already refined their own mana into Gang Qi, capable of lifting their physical body to fly, and from then on, they are almost two different species from mortals.

And this Level 8 Qi-Sensing cultivator was someone they all recognized; it was the current head of the Fei family—Fei Cai!

"Greetings to the Fei family head..."

Uncle Tie Luo Sanren stepped forward and bowed, asking: "Are you here to collect talisman coins? We have already prepared this year's tribute..."

"The matter of tribute is not urgent."

Fei Cai landed, a layer of Gang Qi lingering around his body, carrying a natural majesty: "The White Bone Alliance has betrayed the Fei family and is preparing to defect to the Corpse-Driving Sect. I am ordered by the superior sect to slaughter them... What do you think?"

Uncle Tie Luo Sanren and the others looked at each other and immediately said: "We naturally have no objections and are willing to contribute to the Fei family."

"Hmm, our two families are in-laws after all..." Fei Cai's expression softened a bit: "This operation will be personally presided over by me. The key is speed. Each family must send their strongest combat power... You guys don't even have late-stage Qi-Sensing, going is just a waste... I heard that the strongest thing on Poison Dragon Slope is a variant black snake. Let it fight this time... and bring that spirit planter along."

Fei Cai said: "This time, it will count as your three-year tribute."

"This..."

Uncle Tie Luo Sanren and the others looked at each other, all hesitant.

After all, what was discussed before was not like this.

"What? Do you still have concerns?"

Fei Cai saw this scene and let out a cold snort.

Just at this moment, a young man wearing animal skins walked over, followed by a black snake: "Of course, no problem."

The one who came was naturally Fang Xing.

After he broke through to Druid Level 10, he felt a bit restless.

He didn't expect the Fei family to have this matter; it was just right to go to the burial ground to take a look.

"Hmm... we've met before, you're called Fang Xing, right? That spirit planting technique is not bad. Are you willing to enter my family's service?"

A flash of light shone in Fei Cai's eyes; he had already seen through the person in front of him. It was indeed Level 6 Qi-Sensing, and it didn't look far from Level 7 Qi-Sensing.

"Sorry... I just want to find a place to cultivate in seclusion and live the life of a free and unfettered crane."

Fang Xing smiled and shook his head. This carefree attitude made Song Yunqian and Hu Liuniang break into a cold sweat for him.

"Haha... you were like this last time, and you're still like this this time."

Fei Cai laughed: "Fine... can you fly? Let's go to the burial ground to gather. If you miss the military situation, I will definitely behead you!"

"I can."

Fang Xing took out a paper kite.

It looked like a black swallow-shaped kite. He blew a breath on it, and it immediately flew up, becoming as big as a small boat.

It was precisely the paper kite technique from the three basic origami techniques he obtained back then.

Fang Xing jumped lightly onto the paper kite and flew up slowly and leisurely.

Although it flew slowly, a Level 8 Qi-Sensing cultivator purely relies on Gang Qi to lift themselves to fly, and the speed is just like that, so he could keep pace with Fei Cai.

Even after flying for a distance, Fei Cai felt a bit tired, so he simply came onto the paper kite to meditate and restore his mana.

In the sky, a black swallow kite flew slowly, with two people sitting on it.

And on the ground, a black line was chasing rapidly; it was that black snake.

The wind was howling.

Fang Xing appeared to be meditating cross-legged, but he was actually thinking: "After Fei Tianbao failed to impact the Dao Foundation and fell, even if the Fei family wants to collect a Dao Foundation spirit item, it might take decades of accumulation..."

"That 'Dragon King Ginseng', even just the ginseng liquid can be exchanged for a Dao Foundation spirit item. Who knows how much a whole root is worth?"

Although the paper kite didn't fly fast, it had no terrain restrictions.

Not long after, Fang Xing and the other passed Green Water Lake and arrived at a swamp.

The poisonous mist here was even more astonishing, carrying a strong sense of corrosion.

Even in the swamp on the ground, one could see a few sections of bone-white skeletons from time to time.

"Burial ground... The reason the White Bone Alliance chose this place is that they like the skeletons and poisonous mist here... They use secret methods to cultivate 'White Bone Skeletons' and then refine the poisonous mist into the White Bone Skeletons to increase their power..."

Fang Xing's eyes moved, and according to Fei Cai's guidance, he steered the paper kite to land in a misty bay.

After entering the mist, a few people suddenly appeared on the ground, all of whom were at least Level 7 Qi-Sensing.

Fang Xing's eyes flashed, and he recognized them all: 'Fei Wu, Fei Shentong, and the head of the Xu family from Qingfeng Hollow, and the Supreme Elder of the Yin family from Sanyue Pool...'

Fei Wu and Fei Shentong could compete with Fei Cai for the family head position back then, so they were clearly late-stage Qi-Sensing.

And the Xu family head and the Yin family Supreme Elder were the same.

Fang Xing landed on the ground, immediately attracting several focused gazes.

"Hehe... I am Yin Shou. Is the little friend Fang Xing from Poison Dragon Slope?"

The Yin family Supreme Elder said with a smile, his cultivation level surprisingly reaching around Level 8 Qi-Sensing.

"That is me."

Fang Xing cupped his hands slightly, and in the swamp behind him, a pair of vertical pupils appeared and disappeared.

"I have long heard that the little friend's spirit planting technique is powerful, and the beast-taming technique is also quite remarkable. Now I have finally seen it."

The Xu family head, looking middle-aged, also smiled.

It seemed that the three families were of one mind and moved forward and retreated together.

But Fang Xing knew that everyone was an old fox, and when they really encountered trouble, they would definitely shift the blame to each other. "Alright, everyone is here. Next, let's go to the White Bone Alliance together and kill all the cultivators..."

Fei Cai said lightly.

The White Bone Alliance cultivates the 'White Bone Method', so they are only a bit more powerful at refining 'White Bone Skeletons'. There is only one true late-stage Qi-Sensing cultivator.

With their six late-stage Qi-Sensing combat powers attacking together, it was naturally a sure thing.

The location of the White Bone Alliance was a bone-white wasteland.

A large number of buildings were built on the wasteland, and strange white bone banners were fluttering.

The White Bone Alliance was not a family, but a society of Yao people who practiced the White Bone Method, and they chose the burial ground as an excellent environment.

On the edge of the buildings, there were more than a dozen ordinary skeleton soldiers walking and patrolling...

Hiss!

Not a single mistake, read the first chapter, everything is here!

Suddenly!

A thick dark shadow emerged in the swamp; it was the black snake!

It opened its bloody mouth, and a spray of poisonous evil was spat out, resembling black mist.

Wherever it passed, even the white bones were corroded and turned into strange white liquid.

Those early and middle-stage Qi-Sensing cultivators were poisoned to death without even making a sound.

"Who is invading my White Bone Alliance?"

A scolding came from the White Bone Alliance buildings, and a strange white Gang Qi supported an old man with the appearance of a celestial being, hovering in mid-air. He was surprisingly at Level 8 Qi-Sensing!

"Hmph, White Bone Elder, your White Bone Alliance secretly communicated with the Shanyin Xie family and the Corpse-Driving Sect... I am ordered by the superior sect to come and exterminate you today!"

Fei Cai flew into the high sky and responded loudly.

"Good, what crime can't be found if one wants to add it? It seems the Fei family is determined to exterminate my White Bone Alliance today. You three families still want to ask for trouble; aren't you afraid of being exterminated together in the end?"

The White Bone Elder looked at Fang Xing and the others: "The Fei family has wolfish ambitions; you should know this. Why don't you abandon the darkness and turn to the light?"

It's a pity that facing this situation, none of the three, Fang Xing, were shaken.

After all, who would voluntarily jump onto a broken ship?

"Hmph!"

Seeing this, the White Bone Elder couldn't help but snort coldly.

Subsequently, one strange White Bone Skeleton after another rushed out from the White Bone Alliance.

Each of their heads was as big as a cart wheel, revealing a blood-red color. They were precisely the demons refined by secret methods, and each one was comparable to Level 7 Qi-Sensing.

And at this moment, three of them actually rushed out!

The Yin family Supreme Elder and the Xu family head looked at each other, with only one thought in their hearts: 'No wonder the Fei family wants to take action... Cultivating the White Bone Method in this burial ground is truly complementary...'

"We will stop them."

Fei Wu was a sturdy middle-aged man. At this moment, he roared and led the Yin family Supreme Elder and the Xu family head to stop these three White Bone Skeletons.

Fang Xing was a small transparent figure, just cleaning up the small soldiers on the periphery relying on the black snake.

Fei Cai took Fei Shentong, both of whom had Level 8 Qi-Sensing cultivation, and besieged the White Bone Elder.

For a time, the evil spirit in the field was oppressive, and countless Gang Qi overflowed.

'According to this posture... the White Bone Alliance won't be able to hold on for long.'

Fang Xing watched the black snake spitting poisonous mist and thought to himself: 'Next, is it plowing the courtyard and sweeping the cave? No, that's not right...'

With his current Druid perception, he actually faintly felt a trace of danger.

This made Fang Xing have to be more cautious and retreat to the edge of the burial ground.

Suddenly!

Just as the White Bone Elder was about to be unable to hold on, a terrifying bone-white corpse energy suddenly protruded from a building!

It resembled a heavenly pillar and slammed into Fei Cai.

Fei Cai screamed, and his protective Gang Qi was rapidly corroded.

He knew it was bad and was about to flee for his life when he saw a strange black shadow.

It was a Jade-Armored Corpse, with a green face and fangs, protruding canine teeth, and red hair. It was blocking his path, stretching out two hands covered in scales, and grabbed his head.

"A Dao Foundation-level corpse refinement? White Bone Alliance, have you really defected to the Corpse-Driving Sect?"

Fei Cai wailed, and his head exploded like a watermelon.

The White Bone Elder held an ancient copper bell in his hand, his expression half-smiling: "Didn't your Fei family find out? It's a pity... it's not an easy thing to insert such a corpse refinement under the nose of Qingmu Ridge..."

Clearly, the White Bone Alliance had big plans, but after being exposed this time, it was of no use.

But just at this moment, a sudden change occurred!

A patch of swaying tree shadows covered a radius of several hundred meters before anyone knew it.

Countless emerald vines emerged in the void, resembling steel whips, sweeping toward the corpse refinement.

"Dan Laozu?"

Fei Shentong, who escaped death, was overjoyed.

"Fei family ancestor?"

The White Bone Elder let out a strange cry, shook the bell in his hand violently, and let that corpse refinement erupt with terrifying black flames, burning the illusory vines, and came to his side, taking him to fly away.

"Hehe... thank you, fellow Daoist, for the gift of the corpse refinement. Please stay."

An old voice appeared, and then a flash of green light was seen. An old man with a refined appearance was already standing in the void, glanced at Fei Cai's corpse, and said with a trace of regret: "You guys immediately level this place; leave the White Bone Elder to this old man!"

Although a family head died, there was a trace of joy in the Fei family ancestor's voice.
