Chapter 74
Chapter 82: Frustration
Liu Shunyi temporarily abandoned his plans to take out the visitor from the Heavenly Extreme Sacred Ground.
Honestly, dragging down the entire Qīngzhōu with him didn’t seem worth it.
Similarly, Liu Shunyi didn’t catch up with Zhao Qing for long.
Zhao Qing mentioned he had some important business to attend to.
He didn’t explain further.
So Liu Shunyi didn’t pry.
As for the Heavenly God Sect…
Liu Shunyi simply chuckled.
After all, the whole Heavenly God Sect was currently up on the Divine Dao Golden Scroll.
He hoped the Heavenly God Sect wouldn’t gain anything from this secret realm, or worse, meet their end completely.
For Liu Shunyi, that would be too easy.
But before that…
He still needed to focus on cultivation.
———
After parting ways with Zhao Qing, Liu Shunyi returned to his secret cave.
Inside the cave, he opened the Divine Dao Golden Scroll to the page about the Heavenly God Sect.
Then, he activated the Burning Blood Divine Fist.
While operating the Undying Mixed Yuan Scripture, both the Blood Demon Scripture and Crazy Thunder Sutra began to run simultaneously.
At this moment, the spiritual energy between heaven and earth formed a vortex, which Liu Shunyi absorbed.
To be more accurate…
He wasn’t just absorbing spiritual energy; he was plundering it.
What shocked Liu Shunyi was that despite his frenzied absorption, the Heavenly God Sect’s glow on the Divine Dao Golden Scroll didn’t diminish in the slightest.
No, to be precise…
There was just a tiny black dot the size of an ant appearing alongside that golden light.
This little black dot was busy devouring the glow of the Heavenly God Sect.
“Wow, being golden is powerful!”
With no worries on his mind, Liu Shunyi resumed his crazy training.
———
In the blink of an eye, half a year had passed.
Liu Shunyi’s cultivation had successfully reached the late Golden Core Stage.
The external enhancement was indeed powerful.
But the problem was…
The spiritual energy he was absorbing at the Golden Core level seemed a bit excessive.
Moreover, with his wild intake…
He had practically drained the spiritual energy across dozens of miles!
This meant…
Liu Shunyi’s cultivation progress had to come to a halt.
If it weren’t for the Blood Demon Scripture absorbing others’ souls and blood to boost his strength…
There wouldn’t be enough spiritual energy left in this place for him to advance to the late Golden Core Stage.
Even more surprising for Liu Shunyi was…
A lot of cultivators had gathered outside his cave.
And there was even a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator.
It was clear they wanted to kill him.
But why…
Was there no name of a Nascent Soul cultivator on the Divine Dao Golden Scroll?
Now wasn’t the time for speculation.
“Whoosh!~”
Liu Shunyi summoned his treasured item, that gourd emitting black gas, and strolled out of the cave.
The moment Liu Shunyi stepped out, the surrounding cultivators rushed in.
“Hmph~”
Liu Shunyi released his aura of late Golden Core Stage intensity.
The little nuisances trying to swarm him exploded on the spot.
After clearing out those pests, he was left with some Golden Core cultivators and that Nascent Soul.
Looking at them, Liu Shunyi furrowed his brows.
“You guys aren’t from the Heavenly God Sect. Who are you?”
The Nascent Soul cultivator squinted slightly.
“My master wants to see you!”
Liu Shunyi frowned.
“Who is your master?”
The Nascent Soul cultivator had lost his patience.
“Why so much chatter!”
With that, the Nascent Soul cultivator immediately used a secret technique.
A series of chains made of spiritual energy instantly bound Liu Shunyi.
Slap~
Liu Shunyi unleashed the Burning Blood Divine Fist.
At the same time, the gourd shot out a Weeping Sword Qi.
This sword strike…
Liu Shunyi wasn’t even sure how much blood, mana, and soul power he burned.
But the effect was impressive!
The sword energy from the black gourd instantly shattered the Nascent Soul cultivator’s defenses.
The Nascent Soul cultivator was also taken aback.
“What kind of treasure is that!”
He didn’t believe that a late Golden Core cultivator like Liu Shunyi could breach his spiritual barrier.
So that gourd must be something special.
Meanwhile, Liu Shunyi grinned.
“What treasure? Of course, it’s a big treasure!”
After saying that, Liu Shunyi aimed the mouth of the gourd directly at the Nascent Soul cultivator.
“Boom…”
A massive laser instantly engulfed the Nascent Soul cultivator.
As for those two Golden Core cultivators?
They were directly melted by that huge laser.
But when the laser subsided…
The Nascent Soul cultivator emerged unharmed, his spiritual shield intact.
“You can’t really believe…”
Just as the Nascent Soul cultivator was about to act cocky…
His expression suddenly changed drastically.
Because he saw another sword energy shooting out from the gourd.
And it was moving at lightning speed.
In the blink of an eye, it pierced through his forehead.
Puff~
The Nascent Soul cultivator’s body disintegrated.
His Nascent Soul flew out in an instant.
But the next second…
The Nascent Soul cultivator was utterly hopeless.
For Liu Shunyi’s gourd was already aimed at him again.
“I don’t seriously think I would naively believe I could take down a Nascent Soul with just two or three hits, right?”
Little master, there’s more to this chapter, please click the next page to continue reading, it gets even more exciting!
With that, the black gourd sprayed out another sword energy.
This sword energy …
Was crafted from a tenth of the Heavenly God Sect’s glow concentrated into the Weeping Sword.
Puff~
The sword energy formed a red line.
In an instant, it severed the Nascent Soul.
Even the space around it distorted slightly.
As the Nascent Soul was about to dissipate…
In his final moments, he saw Liu Shunyi aiming his gourd at him again.
“Whoosh whoosh whoosh…”
That was the condensed flame.
And it was scorching hot.
The Nascent Soul cultivator just felt suffocated.
He was a dignified Nascent Soul level cultivator, and he hadn’t even done anything–he hadn’t even gotten a chance to fight back before getting taken down by a Golden Core!
If only he could do it all over again…
He would have definitely unleashed his abilities immediately.
But he didn’t know…
Even after his death,
Liu Shunyi sealed off the entire area,
And then used his primal fire to burn for three whole days and nights.
To prevent anyone from witnessing the phenomenon that occurred, he even set up an obscuring formation.
He continued burning the place into a molten wasteland before finally leaving.
……
……
Inside the Heavenly God Sect,
A rather androgynous-looking man was enjoying his leisure time.
He was even watching the so-called grand performance.
Beside him, Abe Luoxue, dressed in a white gown, was meticulously attending to the man’s every need.
“My lord, if we capture that little thief, please let me deal with him!”
The man chuckled.
“Simple matter!”
Then he looked at Abe Luoxue with a lecherous gleam in his eye.
“Come here and help me relax a bit.”
Abe Luoxue’s face flushed.
“Alright, my lord!”
Then she slowly kneeled down.
But at that moment…
Abe Luoxue suddenly sensed something was off.
Puff puff puff…
Almost simultaneously, every low-level cultivator from the Heavenly God Sect exploded…
And vanished in an instant.
Abe Luoxue was wide-eyed with shock.
Then she turned to look at the man.
