Chapter 144: Killing Aura

  After a flash of white mist, Zhao Di disappeared into the mountain cave.

  At the same time, in a small island inhabited by many ordinary people on the Xuanzhou Immortal Island, a spatial fluctuation and a flash of white light appeared out of thin air, and a slender young man wearing purple clothes emerged, covered with a layer of deep yellow light.

  Immediately, seven or eight ordinary people who were working in the fields noticed the movement above their heads. They stopped what they were doing and looked up at the young man in the yellow light. Before even meeting his cold gaze, they immediately lowered their heads and remained still.

  "Another immortal!" A four or five year old child who was running and playing in the fields, suddenly saw the young man in mid-air, and shouted in a very surprised tone, while rushing towards a peasant woman not far away.

  The peasant woman who was watering, hastily put down the water scoop in her hand, covered the child's small mouth, knelt on the ground and didn't dare to move or even look up.

  "It seems that the mortals here are particularly afraid of cultivators!" Zhao Di thought to himself in the yellow light. He had heard before that the mortals on Xuanzhou Island were considered private property by the island owners, who could slaughter them at will and even sell them as goods to other cultivators.

  Although Penglai Fairy Island is also the case, the island owners have the right to dominate everything on this mortal, but due to the reputation of the Orthodox practitioners, no one has openly slaughtered and sold mortals on a large scale. The evil Taoist practitioners do not care about these things, plus some ghost cultivators and demon cultivators need to use the souls, blood, etc. of mortals to refine artifacts or practice their skills, so the mortals here are often treated as commodities and traded randomly, and the price is also very low.

  In such an environment, ordinary people who are struggling to survive from dawn till dusk would naturally be extremely fearful of the high-and-mighty cultivators! If it weren't for the huge gap in strength, there wouldn't even be a possibility of resistance, and they might have already risen up in revolt!

  Zhao Dibianming oriented himself, mounted the tread wind jiao, and whizzed away, disappearing into the sky above the small island in an instant. The few mortals on the island let out a long sigh accompanied by the sound of children sobbing.

  Two hours later, Zhao Di had arrived at the desolate island where the entrance to the sealed space was located. At this time, apart from the transmission array and several dozen black-robed cultivators of the Blood Intent Sect, there was also a crudely constructed stone hut that was several tens of meters in size on the island.

  The stone house was protected by some kind of prohibition, and his divine sense could not enter at all.

  Zhao slowly descended onto the deserted island, slightly bowed his head in respect to the Blood Intent Sect disciples on the island, then walked towards the stone hut with his head hung low.

  The prohibition of the stone house only blocked the gods' perception, and Zhao easily stepped inside.

  A black-robed elder in the Condensation stage sat on a large wooden chair, with seven or eight red and green jade bottles placed on a stone table about one zhang long in front of him.

  "Senior!" Zhao Di bowed and said in a low voice: "Junior wants to exchange for two portions of Three Flame Heaven Fire Liquid."

  After finishing, he took out two already prepared pale green jade bottles, stepped forward and placed them on the stone table with reverence, leaving behind twenty pieces of middle-grade spirit stones before retreating back to his original position.

  The old man narrowed his eyes and swept a glance at Zhao Di, without saying a word. Nor did he see any movement in his hands, but the two emerald green jade bottles floated to his front on their own. After the old man probed with his divine consciousness, he gently waved his sleeve, and the two red jade bottles slowly flew towards Zhao Di.

  Zhao focused his mind and gazed at the jade bottle as it flew towards him. As soon as it drew near, he directly stored it in his storage bag, thanked and bowed, then left the stone house.

  The ancient sealed space is not small, and the vast majority of cultivators can only search for one place in the Xuanhan realm or the Chiyan realm. It's already a great fortune to find one kind of spiritual water, and it's almost impossible to find both. When breaking through the Dan stage, you must use two kinds of extreme attribute spiritual liquids at the same time, one hot and one cold. Using only one is harmful and useless. If the quality of the two spiritual liquids differs too much, it also can't achieve the fusion of cold and heat, which is equally harmful and useless.

  Fortunately, the two types of spiritual liquids required are not much in quantity and can only be used once. Therefore, the cultivators can exchange half of the spiritual liquid they have for another extreme attribute spiritual liquid. Thus, the Blood Intent Sect has set up a temporary exchange center here, where one-to-one exchanges can be made, but each exchange requires a fee of 1,000 spirit stones from the Blood Intent Sect.

  After exchanging the good three flames of fire liquid, Zhao Di flew back to the Xuanzhou Immortal Island with a very pleasant mood. If this place wasn't the territory of evil cultivators, he would have used the speed of Treading Wind Python to its extreme and returned to his cave to meditate at the first possible moment.

  With the means he has prepared, the Heart Purification Pill, two kinds of spiritual liquids, some auxiliary items he bought in the market, the first round of Hunyuan Jue and a few pills left by Ximen Sanren, these factors add up to give him more than 30% chance of successfully forming his elixir!

  This is already an extremely terrifying high success rate! Generally speaking, at least one of the top ten Qi-refining stage masters can successfully build their foundation with the help of the Foundation Establishment Pill. And for every hundred Foundation Establishment stage cultivators, it's not certain that even one person will be able to successfully form a Golden Core. The vast majority of people either cannot cultivate to the peak of the late Foundation Establishment stage or get stuck at this bottleneck and remain forever as a Foundation Establishment stage master.

  His success rate is already enviable to the point of making other cultivators vomit blood, and if not for his poor spiritual root attributes, the chances of him forming a dan would be even higher!

  For thousands of years in Xingchen Sea, there have been very few who can improve the success rate of forming a Dan like him with such rich means.

  It's not just Zhao Di, other foundation-building cultivators in Xingchen Sea also have the same feeling. The opening of this ancient seal space has brought great benefits to many cultivators in Xingchen Sea. It is likely that among the elder generation of cultivators in Xingchen Sea who are in the Golden Core stage, their numbers will increase significantly.

  The three major forces of Xingchenhai also gained a lot, not only increasing their own sect's strength, but also seemingly tacitly understanding each other in this joint action, and their relationships gradually eased. Meanwhile, the greatest contributor to opening the ancient seal space, Xueyimen, unknowingly made a big name for itself, with a hint of surpassing Tianmo Sect and becoming the number one sect of Ni Tian Alliance.

  Of course, these far-reaching effects were not something Zhao Di wanted to get involved in. He only hastened towards the Yu Gao Peak of Xuanzhou Immortal Island, and used the transmission formation there to return to Penglai Immortal Island.

  Half a day later, when approaching the Xian Island group peaks, the number of monks encountered on the road increased significantly.

  One after another, black auras and gray lights flew by from not far away from Zhao's place, among which there were no lack of senior cultivators in the Condensing Dan period. Some even brought him immense pressure, making it impossible for him to see through their cultivation, clearly they were not ordinary Condensing Dan period cultivators.

  Zhao walked with his head down, neither fast nor slow, and this low-key ordinary appearance did not attract much attention from others.

  Just as he was about to reach the Jade Cream Peak, he was intercepted by two burly men who looked like evil spirits.

  These two people are actually both in the middle of their cultivation, and they look extremely similar. They both have rough and unkempt beards, copper bell-like eyes, dense sword-shaped eyebrows, and a face full of rugged features. Their builds are also roughly the same, at nearly eight feet tall, as if they were twin brothers.

  "May I ask what service the junior can provide to the two seniors?" Facing the interception of the two senior predecessors, Zhao Di did not dare to show any displeasure and could only bow his head and salute, politely inquiring.

  The two big men ignored Zhao Di's words and started chatting with each other.

  "This little guy's cultivation base is only in its later stages, yet the evil energy on his body is so thick and heavy, it's truly rare!"

  "Not bad! Probably killed a number of cultivators at the same level!"

  "Or it could be that a large number of high-level demon beasts were killed, which would also condense a lot of killing energy!"

  "With so much evil energy, if we cultivate our 'Tian Sha Magic Skill', wouldn't it be twice the result with half the effort?"

  "What's wrong, Second Brother? You want to take this child as your apprentice?"

  "Hey, didn't you think so too? We've been adventuring through the Starry Seas together for so long, and we still haven't taken on any disciples yet!"

  "Not bad, this aura is indeed enviable! Hey, kid, you're lucky, we two are the famous Yunheng Twin Evils, and we want to take you as our apprentice. Quickly tell us how you condensed this aura." The big man's last sentence was directed at Zhao Di.

  Zhao Di said in a low voice, "I'm afraid it's not good. I, the junior, am dull and untalented, how can I be worthy of being the disciple of two seniors? I fear that I will tarnish the reputation of my seniors! Moreover, I already have a family legacy to inherit, so I really don't dare to become the disciple of two seniors again!"
