Chapter 69: Lidao Is a Good Man!
“Buzz buzz buzz!”
In the outer sea of Tiangong Island.
Tier-Two Puppets and Tier-Three Puppets were busy without pause.
They were cleaning up the remains of the Heavenly Saber Sect cultivators.
In truth, whether it was the Heavenly Saber Sect cultivators’ storage bags or the wreckage of those Dharma Ships and flying vessels, all of it was salvage for them.
After all, to the current Chaotian Sect, these Dharma Artifact remains counted as treasures.
Bringing them back to patch up, modify, and refine into replacement parts for the puppets was excellent too.
As for the Chaotian Sect, it once again settled into tranquility and peace.
The tens of thousands of Outer Gate disciples had their understanding of Sect Master Lu Qingyang’s strength refreshed once again.
Even Chao San no longer dared to look at Lu Qingyang sideways.
Old Huang, Ma Han, Li Buqun, and his beloved disciple Zhao Layue all regarded Lu Qingyang as a heavenly being!
The entire Chaotian Sect rejoiced…
Until three days later, a low and hoarse voice came from the back mountain of Chaotian Peak.
“If heaven grants me glory, I shall be more arrogant than heaven.”
“Today the Nascent Soul is in hand, when will I bind the azure dragon!”
As this chuunibyou and arrogant voice rang out from the back mountain.
Jun Moyan’s figure instantly appeared in the sky.
“I have formed my Nascent Soul. The Heavenly Saber Sect cultivators have only death awaiting them!”
Jun Moyan lightly spat out a single sentence with a profound look on his face.
He gazed at the crowd below with an air of indifference.
It seemed he wanted to find surprise, worship, or respect in their expressions.
Yet what startled him was that whether it was Chao San, Old Huang, or the other disciples, all of them looked at him with strange expressions.
“Hm?”
Jun Moyan frowned slightly.
By all reason, his forming a Nascent Soul was the glory of the entire Chaotian Sect.
Why was everyone’s reaction completely different from what he had imagined?
Could it be… they don’t believe I’ve formed my Nascent Soul?
Jun Moyan muttered inwardly, and for some reason a sense of foreboding suddenly rose in his heart.
“Swoosh!”
An instant later.
Chao San suddenly flew toward his location.
After coming to a stop, he looked up at him sideways.
“Martial-Uncle…”
“Hm?”
Chao San hesitated, as if he had something to say.
“What is it? If you have something to say, just say it. Why act like this?”
“Could it be that the Heavenly Saber Sect is already on their way to the sect?”
“Rest assured. Your Martial-Uncle has already formed his Nascent Soul. There is no need to worry about the Heavenly Saber Sect any longer.”
Seeing Chao San’s conflicted expression, Jun Moyan waved his hand.
Chao San: “…”
“Martial-Uncle, when you were in seclusion, did you not feel any shaking or earthquakes or anything?”
“No?” Jun Moyan shook his head blankly. “It was quite stable.”
Chao San: “…”
“Martial-Uncle, Ancestor Lidao arrived three days ago.”
“Who is Ancestor Lidao? Wait…”
“Lidao… Ancestor?!”
In an instant, Jun Moyan guessed something. His pupils violently constricted, and his mind trembled fiercely!
“Then he…”
“The Sect Master. The Sect Master struck.”
“Then the Sect Master…”
“The Sect Master is fine.”
“Then the other party…”
“The other party is dead.”
“Phew—!”
Hearing this, Jun Moyan instantly let out a breath of relief.
Until… he remembered what he had just done…
Lowering his head to look at the countless burning and strange gazes beneath his feet, Jun Moyan’s vision went dark.
Heh heh, this Martial-Uncle of mine was born with the Fate Pattern of a background character…
Chaotian Peak Great Hall.
Lu Qingyang toyed with Good Man Lidao’s Storage Ring in his right hand, listening to the intermittent sounds from beyond the mountain.
He smiled somewhat helplessly.
After the battle three days ago, he had roughly grasped his own combat strength.
With all methods unleashed, relying on spells, Dharma Artifacts, and Spirit Armor, I should be able to fight a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator.
As for peak Nascent Soul and half-step Spirit Lord, it is still somewhat forced.
Lu Qingyang pondered inwardly.
Although his combat strength was comparable to early-stage Nascent Soul, and he could even contend with mid-stage Nascent Soul, he was still a bit short.
But for Lu Qingyang, who had only just stepped into mid-stage Golden Core, this was exceptionally rare.
Even within Vast Sea City, such a prodigy might not exist.
But Good Man Lidao’s wealth really is abundant.
Could this fellow have carried the entire sect’s treasure vault on his person?
Lu Qingyang searched Ancestor Lidao’s Storage Ring, clicking his tongue in amazement.
As expected of a sect master, his wealth was simply terrifying.
Just the high-grade spirit stones alone numbered no less than twenty thousand in this Storage Ring.
Converted into low-grade spirit stones, that was nearly two million!
Equivalent to three years of the Chaotian Sect’s surplus!
Besides spirit stones, there were countless Dharma Artifacts and elixirs of every tier, including that Tier-Four Bell Dharma Artifact.
There were also quite a few technique manuals and texts!
But what delighted Lu Qingyang most was that he had actually fished out a Dharma Seal Character from Ancestor Lidao’s Storage Ring!
Could this character be the legendary Dao Rhythm Character?
After arriving in the Seven Stars Sea Region, Lu Qingyang had also gathered a large number of texts.
He had gained a general understanding of the Prison Dragon Realm’s frontline cultivation secrets and treasures.
Among them were records about this “Dao Rhythm Character.”
It was said that only Mahayana Venerables could condense a Dao Rhythm Character.
After use, it could not only raise the user’s cultivation strength, but also increase a cultivator’s Comprehension.
And the rarest among Dao Rhythm Characters were the kill-type characters!
If such a character had not been comprehended by anyone, it could even be used as a Dharma Artifact to slaughter in all directions!
It was just that after use, it could no longer be comprehended…
The Li Fire Character. Tsk tsk, a genuine kill-type character. Then why did Ancestor Lidao not use it?
Looking at the small blood-red character in his palm, Lu Qingyang muttered to himself.
Used by a Nascent Soul cultivator, such a supreme treasure would surely possess boundless power.
But if that was the case, why did the other party abandon such a killing move?
Could it be that he was reluctant to part with this Li Fire Character, unwilling to use it up?
After thinking it through again and again without understanding, Lu Qingyang could only temporarily suppress his doubts.
He now only wanted to properly comprehend this “Li Fire Character.”
Though keeping this item as a trump card was not a bad choice, strength was only reassuring when it was added to oneself.
After all, years ago, a trace of residual Dao Rhythm Character from the Heaven Sword Venerable had been able to raise his Comprehension considerably.
Now that he had a complete Dao Rhythm Character, and a kill-type character at that, he naturally would not give up this opportunity.
It was just that before comprehending it, there were still some matters to attend to.
“Jiangxin.”
“I am here, Master.”
With an indifferent response, Jiangxin appeared beside Lu Qingyang.
Flickering with flowing light, it floated quietly in mid-air.
“Tell Senior Brother Chao San to take half the sect’s Battle Puppets and make a trip to Beixuan Island.”
“Tell him that regardless of what it takes, he must occupy Beixuan Island’s resources and not let other factions covet them.”
“Understood, Master!”
As Lu Qingyang’s order fell, Jiangxin immediately vanished from its spot.
Afterward, Lu Qingyang summoned Old Huang.
“Greetings, Sect Master!”
Old Huang, in a long azure robe, stood respectfully before Lu Qingyang.
Having experienced the battle with the Heavenly Saber Sect, he had long since regarded Lu Qingyang as a heavenly being!
In truth, it was not just him. Everyone in the Chaotian Sect was the same.
“Old Huang.”
“The sect’s puppet inventory is now sufficient. You may try selling in Vast Sea City and even the Seven Stars Sea Region.”
“Tier-Three Puppets are highly sought after even without Jiangxin controlling them.”
“However, you must not sell to those major sects, to avoid unnecessary trouble.”
“Yes, this subordinate respectfully obeys the Sect Master’s decree.”
“Go.”
Lu Qingyang waved his hand, signaling him to withdraw.
Watching Old Huang’s departing figure, his eyes narrowed, and the corner of his mouth curved into a cold arc.
With the Heavenly Saber Sect destroyed, the Chaotian Sect’s name would soon resound throughout the Nascent Soul and Spirit-Severing sects of the Seven Stars Sea Region.
Because of this, Lu Qingyang could only hasten to strengthen himself and the Chaotian Sect.
But the Chaotian Sect had risen too quickly, its foundations still shallow. In a short time, it could not possibly attain an invincible posture.
Therefore, before the Chaotian Sect’s name was thoroughly renowned, he had to forge a colossal entity that would make everyone fear and dread it!
At the very least, one that could stand proudly in the Seven Stars Sea Region!
