Chapter 15 Duanmu Ji Retreats
Chu Yuan didn't speak, but made a claw with one hand and held it loosely in front of him.
The thousand-foot-long thunder dragon's body suddenly trembled, and the crimson lightning wrapped around it suddenly surged, radiating a suffocating sense of destruction.
The dragon's mouth opened wide, and a ball of energy, condensed with lightning and blood, was taking shape within it, ready to be ejected at any moment.
Duanmu Ji's pupils contracted, and his expression changed completely.
It was that crimson lightning again!
He gritted his teeth.
"Fellow Daoist, isn't all you want an explanation? I'm willing to offer a Nascent Soul stage magic weapon, plus an Infant Establishment Pill. Would that settle the matter?"
Upon hearing this, Chu Yuan paused slightly in his movements.
A magic weapon for the Nascent Soul stage? An Infant-Establishing Pill?
His eyes flickered slightly as he quickly made a mental calculation.
The value of magic treasures for Nascent Soul stage cultivators goes without saying; they are treasures that even Nascent Soul stage cultivators dream of.
The Infant-Establishing Pill is even more precious. This pill can greatly increase the chances of a Core Formation cultivator breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage. In the cultivation world, it is priceless and unavailable. Many Core Formation cultivators who have reached the Great Perfection stage would spend their entire fortunes to obtain it.
Although he no longer needs this pill to break through to the Nascent Soul stage, it would be excellent to give it to the disciples of the sect or to exchange it for other resources.
Moreover, this Duanmu is extremely important to the ancient land of gods...
Chu Yuan lowered his hand.
The thousand-foot-long thunder dragon behind him slowly dissipated, turning into countless fragments of lightning that gradually disappeared into the air.
The crimson lightning that had been coiling around it receded and disappeared back into his sea of consciousness.
Upon seeing this, Duanmu Ji secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
With a casual wave of his hand, a large cyan seal and a purple pill flew out from his sleeve and slowly floated towards Chu Yuan.
The large blue seal was carved entirely from some kind of unidentified jade. Its surface was covered with densely packed runes, exuding an ancient and profound aura, making it clear at a glance that it was no ordinary item.
The purple pill was encased in a thin jade shell, through which one could vaguely see the purple liquid inside slowly flowing, and the aroma of the medicine filled the air.
Chu Yuan raised his hand, and the two items landed steadily in his palm.
He glanced down at it, probed it with his divine sense to examine it carefully, and after confirming that it was correct, he casually put it into his storage bag.
"In that case, let's leave it at that."
Chu Yuan spoke calmly, withdrawing his aura and slowly descending into the midst of the Fire Burning Alliance members.
Duanmu Ji stood atop the cyan gourd, his face ashen, a flash of anger in his eyes.
His mind was in turmoil, and he felt a chill of fear.
That crimson lightning was terrifying.
He had cultivated for thousands of years and considered himself knowledgeable and experienced, yet he had never seen such a bizarre supernatural power.
The crimson lightning could ignore all defenses and directly attack the primordial spirit. Moreover, its power was so great that even he, a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, could not withstand it.
If the other party comes several more times, I'm afraid my primordial spirit will become unstable.
His purpose in coming to Xuanwu Kingdom was to visit the land of the ancient gods.
If his primordial spirit were to suffer severe damage at this moment, he might not have the chance to explore the ancient god's land.
That's why he was willing to use two treasures to settle things peacefully, rather than fight Chu Yuan to the death.
Even if he wins by giving it his all, he will not be happy. His primordial spirit will be more severely injured, and he will no longer be able to enter the Ancient God Land.
This is a bad deal no matter how you look at it.
Duanmu suppressed his anger and stared at Chu Yuan's back with a mixture of anger and uncertainty.
This boy's cultivation level was forcibly increased by the formation, not by his true strength.
If we wait until his grand formation fails before making a move...
Just as he thought of this, he shook his head and dismissed the idea.
Forget it. Better to be careful.
The duration of that formation is unknown. If the opponent still has spare strength, he would only cause trouble if he made a rash move.
Moreover, this person's supernatural power, which directly attacks the soul, is quite similar to the Death Curse, and is extremely strange. He has lived for thousands of years and has never seen such a troublesome method.
If we could bring this person into this operation...
Duanmu Ji's eyes flashed, and he suddenly cupped his hands again, his tone much gentler than before: "Fellow Daoist's cultivation is so profound, I admire it greatly. To be honest, I know of a secret realm, filled with countless opportunities, even rumored to contain the Nascent Soul Transformation Pill. I wonder if you would be interested in going there with me?"
Chu Yuan paused and turned around.
He glanced at Duanmu Ji, his expression calm, and said indifferently, "No."
After saying that, he turned around and said with a hint of impatience, "If there's nothing else, then leave."
Duanmu Ji's face stiffened, and he gritted his teeth and clenched his fists, his knuckles cracking.
He took a deep breath, suppressing his anger, and spoke again: "Fellow Daoist, since that's the case, may I use my divine sense to investigate? To be frank, I actually entered this place in pursuit of a Core Formation junior. Once I find this person, I will leave immediately and not linger any longer."
Chu Yuan was silent for a moment, then nodded slightly: "Just this once."
"Thank you, fellow Daoist!"
Duanmu Ji quickly cupped his hands in greeting, and then his divine sense spread out in an overwhelming manner. The divine sense power of the mid-stage Nascent Soul stage enveloped the entire Fire Burning Alliance's base, searching it inch by inch.
His divine sense was like mercury spilling onto the ground, penetrating everywhere and leaving no corner untouched.
A moment later, his expression changed drastically.
"No... How could there not be?!"
Duanmu Ji's face turned ashen, a hint of madness flashing in his eyes.
He gritted his teeth and formed hand seals, his body splitting into two, then into four, with four identical clones emerging from his body and rushing off in four directions, instantly taking up positions in the four corners of Xuanwu Kingdom.
"You Core Formation brat, even if it means sealing off the entire Xuanwu Kingdom, I will find you!"
Duanmu Ji's voice echoed across the sky, carrying an undisguised rage.
His four clones each released the aura of the Nascent Soul stage, shrouding the entire Xuanwu Kingdom in a sense of oppression.
From then on, any cultivator entering or leaving Xuanwu Kingdom would be instantly locked onto by him, making escape impossible.
If the third level of that place could be passed only by the Death Curse, he wouldn't have gone through all this trouble!
Chu Yuan stood at a distance, watching Duanmu Ji's actions with a calm expression, and did not intervene.
He wasn't prepared to go to the land of the ancient gods.
That place is too risky; it's full of powerful figures, and even those at the Nascent Soul stage are no match for it.
Even if he, a mere early-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, could temporarily reach the early-stage Deity Transformation realm with the help of the Four Symbols Formation, he would still be nothing more than a minor figure in that kind of place.
If you're unlucky, you might get caught up in it and have nowhere to turn to cry.
Moreover, he doesn't need to take any risks himself.
Wang Lin will definitely go to the land of the ancient gods.
He just needs to wait, wait for Wang Lin to enter, wait for Wang Lin to gain opportunities inside, and when the system synchronizes later, those opportunities will naturally become his.
Why not reap the benefits without lifting a finger?
Chu Yuan turned around and looked at the Fire Burning Alliance members behind him who were still in shock and hadn't recovered yet.
"This person is Duanmu Ji, the Eight Extremes Demon Lord, one of the city lords of the Seven Plum Cities in the Demon Sea, with a cultivation level of mid-Nascent Soul stage. He has now sealed off the entire Xuanwu Kingdom. Disciples of the Fire Burning Alliance should not leave Xuanwu Kingdom unless absolutely necessary, to avoid causing unnecessary trouble."
Everyone then realized what was happening and quickly bowed, replying, "Yes!"
