Chapter 778: Shameless Person, Why Is It You Again (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

~22 min read 4,324 words

The powerful strength shown by the hunched old man before also made Qiu Wuxin know that the background of this group of people with the woman in white was somewhat extraordinary. The other party was definitely not a local ordinary rogue cultivator, but highly likely to be a disciple of a large sect from another cultivation world.

Although a strong dragon does not suppress a local snake, even if the woman in white and the others were really disciples of a Nascent Soul sect from the outside world, Qiu Wuxin was not afraid of offending the other party in the "Heaven-Sea Cultivation World."

It's just that, in case the woman in white was really a core disciple of a Nascent Soul sect from another cultivation world, traveling outside, she might have powerful protective means left by her elders.

Facing such foreign cultivators whose background was unknown and who possessed many high-grade magic treasures and spiritual items, even Qiu Wuxin, a genius who had been focused on by a Nascent Soul sect since childhood, had a few more cautious looks on his face at this moment.

Arrogance is arrogance, but being able to cultivate all the way to the ninth level of Golden Core, Qiu Wuxin was naturally not a simple-minded person who was reckless when encountering things.

Even if he had occupied an absolute advantage at the moment, Qiu Wuxin still tried the means of attacking the heart first, to see if he could save himself some effort and let the woman in white take the initiative to hand over the "Thunder Infant Fruit" herself.

However, facing Qiu Wuxin's verbal temptation, the woman in white's face was very firm, and she did not waver at all because she was in danger.

The woman in white, while casting spells to control the flying boat under her feet, also took out a third-grade mid-grade spiritual talisman, which transformed into a giant axe and slashed toward Qiu Wuxin, who was chasing closely behind her, wanting to use this to force the other party back and increase the distance from him.

"Hmph! You really don't know what's good for you. With just this bit of ability, do you think you can escape?"

Seeing that the woman in white not only ignored what he said but also dared to take the initiative to attack him, Qiu Wuxin's face also looked a bit displeased.

After an angry reprimand, the "Li Huo Chi Xin Sword" in Qiu Wuxin's hand transformed into a powerful crimson blood light and rushed forward, not taking the other party's attack into his eyes at all.

A moment later, the crimson blood light collided with the giant axe released by the woman in white in the air.

It was just that the giant axe only supported for a small while under the powerful attack of the crimson blood light before it disappeared between heaven and earth, and did not help the woman in white block Qiu Wuxin for a long time.

Seeing that her spiritual talisman attack was so easily blocked by the other party, a look of surprise appeared on the woman in white's face.

Facing Qiu Wuxin, who seemed to be at her wit's end, she could only desperately increase her magic power to urge the flying boat under her feet to accelerate and escape from here.

But the woman in white's cultivation was after all much worse than Qiu Wuxin's. Although she had desperately cast spells to get rid of her opponent, a quarter of an hour later, she was still caught up by Qiu Wuxin, who bypassed her and blocked her path as expected.

"Fellow Daoist, it's over for today!"

Seeing Qiu Wuxin, who was facing her with frost on his face and was ready to make a move on her, the woman in white, whose face had been very firm, also had a trace of panic flash in her eyes at this moment.

"This fellow Daoist, wait! This little girl still has something to say!"

Perhaps knowing that she could no longer hide, the woman in white no longer had the calmness from before. After shouting at Qiu Wuxin in a panic, she took the initiative to take out a wooden box that was originally tied to her waist.

"Fellow Daoist is indeed powerful, even Old Qi couldn't hold you off. Today we were defeated not unjustly. Since Fellow Daoist came only for this thing, then since you won, you can take this thing!"

"However, before that, Fellow Daoist must give me a promise that you will not look for trouble with us next, and let the three of us leave the secret realm safely. Otherwise, even if I destroy this thing today, I will not let you get your wish."

After speaking, the woman in white had an extra mass of somewhat weird blue flames in her hand. The flames rapidly entangled on the wooden box, constantly emitting bursts of scorching spiritual light, as if she would burn the wooden box in her hand to ashes in the next moment.

Seeing that the other party actually used the "Thunder Infant Fruit" to threaten him, a look of displeasure suddenly appeared on Qiu Wuxin's face not far away.

But when he saw the seriousness on the woman in white's face, which did not seem like empty words, Qiu Wuxin hesitated for a moment, but still took the initiative to stop the "Li Huo Chi Xin Sword" that was preparing to attack the other party in mid-air.

Seeing the crimson flying sword not far in front finally stop, the woman in white, who had been nervous, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"My Falling Maple Valley has no life-and-death enmity with you. Today, Qiu only came to take the Thunder Infant Fruit. As long as you hand over this thing, there will be nothing for us to argue about, and you can naturally leave safely."

"Fellow Daoist, rest assured, my Falling Maple Valley is a Nascent Soul major sect after all, and it won't go back on its word. As long as you don't go against us next, where you want to go is your own business. I can guarantee here that Falling Maple Valley will not look for trouble with you again."

Hearing the solemn guarantee from Qiu Wuxin's mouth, the woman in white's face did not change much. She shook her head calmly and said: "Although Fellow Daoist is from a Nascent Soul major sect, this empty guarantee is still very hard for me to believe that you will not go back on your word after getting the spiritual item."

Seeing that the other party didn't believe him, Qiu Wuxin did not show much surprise, and replied directly: "Then what kind of guarantee do you want to be satisfied with? You might as well say it directly!"

"I didn't bring a soul contract with me this time, so I won't make things difficult for you. But if I am to believe you, you must first take a Heavenly Dao oath. This requirement shouldn't be too much for you, right?"

A soul contract is a contract that can bind the life and death of both parties. The restriction on cultivators is extremely huge. Generally, unless they encounter life-and-death matters, very few cultivators will be willing to take the initiative to sign such a contract with others.

And the Heavenly Dao oath mentioned by the woman in white is relatively simple. It is an oath that a cultivator makes directly to the Heavenly Dao of this interface. It does not require too many cumbersome steps, nor does it need to prepare contract booklets in advance.

It's just that the credibility of the Heavenly Dao oath and the restriction on ordinary cultivators are far less than that of the soul contract.

Even if a cultivator violates his Heavenly Dao oath after taking it, it will only affect his state of mind when he breaks through the cultivation realm later, and he may not be favored by the Heavenly Dao because of this, leading to heart demons entering the body and failing to break through the realm. It does not pose a direct threat to the cultivator's life.

This kind of agreement method, whose cost is relatively not so high, is also a relatively common way for many ordinary cultivators to promise each other in the cultivation world.

Although the Heavenly Dao oath will only have some influence when they break through the cultivation realm, it has no restriction on those cultivators whose path has already been cut off and who have no hope of breaking through to the next major realm.

But for a cultivator like Qiu Wuxin, who has already cultivated to the ninth level of Golden Core and has a high probability of breaking through to the Nascent Soul realm, the situation is a bit different.

If he violates his Heavenly Dao oath, it may not have any influence on Qiu Wuxin for a while, but when he breaks through to the Nascent Soul realm in the future, heart demons entering the body are very likely to cause him to fail to break through the realm and have his path cut off.

It is precisely because she saw this point that the woman in white took the initiative to ask Qiu Wuxin to take the Heavenly Dao oath.

"Since Fellow Daoist insists on this, I can agree to you, but this is my bottom line. If you dare to make any more requests to me later, don't blame me for not reminding you beforehand."

Hearing the requirement put forward by the other party, Qiu Wuxin just remained silent for a moment, then nodded in agreement with the other party's opinion, and took the Heavenly Dao oath to the woman in white.

Seeing that the other party was so straightforward, the woman in white nodded with satisfaction, and without too much hesitation, she threw the wooden box in her hand toward the location where Qiu Wuxin was.

After sending out the wooden box in her hand, the woman in white did not continue to stay in place, but turned around and changed direction to escape rapidly.

It was just that before the flying boat under her feet had left very far, a golden light suddenly shot from the side. The woman in white hurriedly stopped the flying boat and dodged to the side. When she turned around again, a majestic golden lion had already blocked her path.

This "Golden Lion Puppet Beast" had been seen by the woman in white before. When Qiu Wuxin used it to contain her black-clad female companion, he had used it. Knowing who was attacking her, she immediately looked back and showed a look of shock.

"Fellow Daoist Qiu, what is the meaning of this? You have already taken the Heavenly Dao oath just now, why are you still unwilling to let me go?"

Seeing the surprise on the woman in white's face, Qiu Wuxin, who was holding the wooden box the other party had just thrown over, suddenly showed a look of triumph on his face.

"Heh heh! Fellow Daoist is really a bit naive. This kind of Heavenly Dao oath, I have taken seven or eight times even if I haven't taken ten times before, and I have long since stopped caring about these."

"Perhaps you will feel that things like heart demons blocking the path have a great influence on a cultivator's breakthrough in cultivation, but this is actually not scary to me. At worst, when I break through the cultivation, I will seek one or two more spiritual items to restrain heart demons."

"Compared to this, I am more afraid that I will not have the opportunity to break through the cultivation in the future. If there is even a chance to go further, what is the significance of heart demons blocking the path to us?"

"You have cultivated for so many years, why can't you even see through such a simple truth."

"You look upright on the surface, but I didn't expect you to be such a shameless person in the back, and you can betray the Heavenly Dao oath you made so easily."

"Haha... The cultivation world is originally a place where the weak are the prey of the strong. Whether it is upright or a shameless person, in the end, whoever has the stronger strength has the reason!"

"Do you think those high-and-mighty Nascent Soul ancestors are all good people? Who among them hasn't climbed up on the corpses of countless low-level cultivators to reach the Nascent Soul realm? And how many dare to say that they have never done anything against their conscience? There are so many shameless people in this cultivation world, so it's not bad to have me."

Seeing the annoyance on the woman in white's face when she reprimanded him, Qiu Wuxin felt even more triumphant in his heart, which gave him the pleasure of playing with his opponent.

But facing Qiu Wuxin's going back on his word, the woman in white, although very angry at this moment, did not look too panicked, and continued to ask: "Fellow Daoist won't let me go, what else do you want?"

"It's been so long, Old Qi and the others should be catching up soon. I advise you to see when to stop, so as not to get nothing later."

Although the woman in white said it very seriously, her words made Qiu Wuxin laugh on the spot. "Heh heh! Fellow Daoist, I am really a bit impressed by your naivety now. You still dare to bargain with me at this time."

"True, those two companions of yours are indeed powerful, even if I face them, it will be a bit tricky, but it won't be so much trouble to deal with you. Even if they catch up now, you can't leave here safely."

"In view of the fact that you took the initiative to hand over the 'Thunder Infant Fruit' just now, I don't want to do things too absolutely. If you are willing to take the initiative to hand over your storage magic treasure, I can let you leave here."

"You just went back on your word, and now you come to deceive me like this again. Am I really that naive in your eyes? I don't think this proposal of yours is good at all. It's better to just let me leave."

Hearing Qiu Wuxin's cold threat, the woman in white no longer had any anger on her face at this moment. She first shook her head calmly and rejected his proposal, and then a bit of relaxation appeared on her face.

"Hmph! Do you think you still have a choice now?" Seeing the woman in white suddenly say this, Qiu Wuxin snorted coldly, and the "Li Huo Chi Xin Sword" that had been circling around him immediately emerged with a burst of blood-red spiritual light.

"You finally cheated the Thunder Infant Fruit from my hand, but you didn't open it to see it. Do you trust me so much?"

Just when Qiu Wuxin was preparing to make a move to deal with the woman in white, a sentence suddenly spoken by the other party made him stop suddenly, and he hurriedly looked at his waist.

I saw that the wooden box, which was originally showing a trace of white thunder light, suddenly turned pitch black at this moment, and bursts of "pi pa" sounds of thunder and lightning crossing were emitted from it.

"This is... This is not the Thunder Infant Fruit!"

Seeing this scene, Qiu Wuxin was shocked beyond compare at this moment, and hurriedly threw the wooden box at his waist into the air, making it stay away from himself.

But just after he threw this wooden box out, it suddenly exploded in the air. Before Qiu Wuxin could react, a black iron cage flashing with white light immediately trapped him inside.

"Small tricks, you still dare to show your ugliness in front of me!"

Qiu Wuxin, who was trapped in the black iron cage, saw that this thing could only trap the enemy and had no attack power, so he didn't show any panic on his face, and hurriedly controlled the "Li Huo Chi Xin Sword" outside to turn the sword light and stab at the iron cage, wanting to free himself.

However, this black iron prison, facing the attack of the fourth-grade magic treasure "Li Huo Chi Xin Sword," was unexpectedly very firm, and was not destroyed by his sword.

"My Heavenly Gang Ice Prison Talisman is a small trick, but it is refined from the skin of a fourth-grade shapeshifting demon beast in the sea. Although its power is not as good as a fourth-grade spiritual talisman, it is not something that an ordinary third-grade high-grade spiritual talisman can compare to."

"This is a rare treasure on me. If it weren't for you forcing me too much today, I would really be reluctant to take it out!"

"Just now, this little trick of blinding the eyes could deceive ordinary people, but with your cultivation, it shouldn't be so easy to be fooled. It's just that you are too greedy. You wanted the spiritual fruit but didn't know how to be satisfied. Now you have nothing!"

Seeing Qiu Wuxin desperately urging the "Li Huo Chi Xin Sword" to attack the black iron prison beside him, the woman in white was not too worried, and specially came to this black cage to mock Qiu Wuxin, who was trapped.

The wooden box that the woman in white handed over after being chased by Qiu Wuxin and having no other way did not contain the "Thunder Infant Fruit" she said, but a third-grade high-grade spiritual talisman with huge power.

This "Heavenly Gang Ice Prison Talisman" originally carried a trace of ice-thunder spiritual energy. Before putting it into the wooden box, it was tampered with by the woman in white, deliberately disguised as a high-grade thunder-attribute spiritual item. It was indeed very difficult to find the abnormality without opening the wooden box to look closely.

Coupled with the fact that the woman in white deliberately pretended to compromise at that time, and the appearance she showed when forcing Qiu Wuxin to take the Heavenly Dao oath was very serious, this also made him not expect that the other party was calculating against him from the beginning.

After all, the woman in white's cultivation was only the sixth level of Golden Core. Compared to Qiu Wuxin, who held a fourth-grade magic treasure, the gap in strength was not just a little bit, which indeed made Qiu Wuxin relax his vigilance against her a bit.

When he just took the wooden box, Qiu Wuxin didn't hurry to open the wooden box because he was in a hurry to intercept the woman in white who wanted to take the opportunity to escape, and he didn't find the abnormality inside in time, which finally led him into the trap designed for him by the woman in white.

"The Heavenly Gang Ice Prison Talisman can at least trap you for half an hour. Fellow Daoist, just stay here with peace of mind. I will take this Thunder Infant Fruit first, and this little girl will not accompany you!"

After mocking Qiu Wuxin a few times, the woman in white took out another wooden box containing the "Thunder Infant Fruit" from her waist, deliberately showed it off in front of the other party, and then turned around with a smile and transformed into an escape light, preparing to move away from here.

Just when the woman in white turned around and left, a white light suddenly lit up in front, and then a black figure appeared out of thin air before her eyes, blocking her.

"Senior Sister Yu, why is it you? Has Old Qi also escaped?"

Seeing the black-clad woman suddenly appear before her eyes looking at her happily, the woman in white instinctively showed a burst of joy on her face.

Just when she wanted to greet her companion too much, she suddenly felt a trace of something wrong in her mind, and hurriedly stopped her figure.

"No, you are not Senior Sister Yu!" The woman in white's face changed slightly. After shouting, she released a sharp sword blade directly toward the black-clad woman in the distance.

Facing such a sharp sword blade attacking, the black-clad woman's expression did not change at all. After being hit by the sword blade, she dispersed rapidly in front of the woman in white and transformed into a group of five-colored golden butterflies.

These golden butterflies flickered with bursts of dazzling light, and soon came to the surroundings of the woman in white, surrounding her in the middle.

"Who are you, hiding here and sneaking up on me!"

The woman in white's inquiry was not answered by anyone around. After being surrounded by these golden butterflies, she immediately took out a flying sword magic treasure in her hand, emitted several sword lights, and killed the few butterflies around, wanting to get rid of these butterflies' harassment quickly.

However, although these golden butterflies didn't look powerful, there were too many of them. The woman in white killed dozens of them in a row, but the number of golden butterflies around did not decrease, but instead increased quite a bit.

"This spiritual insect, could it be a blinding trick!"

Discovering that she had clearly killed several golden butterflies just now, but no corpses fell, the woman in white also reacted that these spiritual insects seemed to have been transformed.

Seeing this, the woman in white cast a spell to take out a white spiritual bead magic treasure and put it on her head. After a burst of white light flashed, the hundreds of golden butterflies that had been surrounding her suddenly disappeared, leaving only a dozen or so still surrounding her side.

Just when the woman in white broke the spiritual insect illusion in front of her and was preparing to leave here, five streaks of spiritual light suddenly fell from the sky, transforming into five copper mirrors and surrounding the woman in white in the middle.

Before the woman in white could cast a spell to break this prison, the five copper mirrors surrounding her quickly shot out more than a dozen purple spiritual lights, fixing her figure in mid-air, unable to move.

Just when the woman in white was casting a spell to prepare to get rid of the control of these purple spiritual lights, a green-robed man drilled out of one of the copper mirrors, stepped forward, and snatched the small wooden box containing the "Thunder Infant Fruit" from the woman in white's waist.

"Fellow Daoist, it's really a good method. I didn't expect that I would fight with him, but in the end, it would be cheaper for you!"

The woman in white, who had just cast a spell to get rid of the purple spiritual light restraint, saw Song Qingming, who was standing not far from her and was looking at the wooden box in his hand with his back to her, and spat out a sentence with some unwillingness.

In order to get rid of Qiu Wuxin's pursuit before, she had already consumed a large amount of magic power in her body, and later she cast a spell to urge a high-grade "Heavenly Gang Ice Prison Talisman." Now, there was not much magic power left on her.

And this green-robed man who appeared suddenly, being able to approach her side silently just now, and being able to snatch the "Thunder Infant Fruit" from her hand so quickly, whether it was personal cultivation or fighting strength, seemed to be above her.

Clearly, she had successfully trapped Qiu Wuxin, but who would have thought that at this last moment, another person would suddenly emerge to rob the "Thunder Infant Fruit" halfway and also pick the victory fruit that originally belonged to her.

Thinking that so many of them had been busy for so long, but in the end, it was making wedding clothes for others, the woman in white looked at Song Qingming at this moment, full of hatred, and there was also a bit more unwillingness on her face.

And Song Qingming's side, after confirming the spiritual fruit in the wooden box, it was indeed the "Thunder Infant Fruit" that Feng He had mentioned to him before, and a look of satisfaction also appeared on his face.

Then he took out a cloth bag that had been prepared long ago, carefully packed it, and carried it on his waist, only then did he turn around and look at the woman in white not far away.

"Why is it you again!"

After seeing Song Qingming's face clearly, seeing that the person who snatched the "Thunder Infant Fruit" from her hand was the person who snatched her companion's array disk outside before, the woman in white couldn't help but be surprised.

Thinking that every time the other party appeared, it seemed that nothing good happened to her, the look in the woman in white's eyes when looking at Song Qingming also unconsciously added a bit more disgust.

"If I had known this, I should have driven him away first outside the 'Wind-Thunder Hall'!"

The woman in white felt a burst of regret in her heart at this moment, but she didn't dare to show too much in front of Song Qingming, and could only look at the other party with some displeasure.

Seeing that the other party was so surprised after seeing him, Song Qingming didn't show much surprise on his face. He smiled slightly at the woman in white and waved his hand to put away the "Five Elements Divine Light Mirror" that trapped the other party.

"It is indeed a bit of fate that I can meet Fellow Daoist several times!"
