Chapter 434 - 174: Tallying the Spoils, Foundation Establishment Pill Exchange, and the Grand Plan!
"This... isn’t this too powerful?"
"I thought facing a Foundation Establishment Realm Demon Beast meant certain death.
But the result was the exact opposite.
This Iron-Winged Giant Eagle was actually reverse-slayed by him.
To kill a Foundation Establishment Realm Great Demon at the Qi Cultivation Realm..."
"I’m speechless.
It’s so astonishing.
I think I’ll never forget such a scene in my lifetime.
Decisive and domineering.
Truly, with endless grace."
"Is he really a Qi Cultivation Cultivator?
Why do I feel that some Foundation Establishment Realm Cultivators aren’t as strong as him?
That Thunderbolt of Ten Thousand Jins was terrifying to the extreme.
And those three thunder strikes, powerful and precise.
And his flying sword, three swords in one, unstoppable..."
"Crossing the Void, walking and flying.
This isn’t something a typical Qi Cultivation Stage Cultivator can do.
Truly, terrifying as such..."
...
Below, a group of cultivators were dumbfounded, almost unable to believe their eyes.
They watched as the Foundation Establishment Demon Beast attacked, watched as that cultivator collected the Golden Armor King Flying Cicada, and then watched as he crossed the void, flew, and used thunder techniques, successively defeating many flying demon beasts, and finally reverse-slaying that Foundation Establishment Great Demon in the air...
It truly was an incredibly shocking scene.
Leaving them all speechless.
"Could this person be a true disciple from some sect?
This kind of strength can only be achieved by a sect’s true disciple, right?"
Spider Silk Fairy Chen Xiao’Er couldn’t help but ask.
"Not necessarily.
A true disciple may not have such strength.
Ordinary sect true disciples only practice techniques, not magic.
The Qi Cultivation Stage is just a transition for them, and they won’t waste time cultivating magic."
Feng Xue shook his head next to her, gravely said, "However, this person’s strength is indeed very terrifying.
Reversal Immortal Slaying, sword cutting Foundation Establishment Demon Beast.
Although I’ve heard of someone who could do it, I’ve never actually seen it.
Even that Iron-Winged Giant Eagle, even if I gave my all, might not be my match.
At least, I couldn’t possibly handle it as easily as he did.
Not to mention, he was fighting against the Iron-Winged Giant Eagle while in mid-air, truly, his techniques are extremely profound."
"Doesn’t that mean..."
Chen Xiao’Er exclaimed.
"That’s right.
In terms of strength, he can already be called the number one below Foundation Establishment, invincible among Qi Cultivation Cultivators.
It’s just, who exactly is he?"
Feng Xue seriously nodded and said.
"Being able to bring out three Sealing Thunder Talismans at once and adept at thunder techniques.
I have a guess."
Chen Xiao’Er thought for a moment and said.
"Who?"
"That mysterious Talisman Maker, Ascendant Feng Hua!"
"That does seem very likely.
Or perhaps the person behind Ascendant Feng Hua."
"Besides, did you see the flying sword he used?
One of them was fiery red throughout, likely the famous magical artifact of the recently fallen Fire Dragon Daoist, the Fire Dragon Sword."
"The Fire Dragon Daoist presumably fell in the outskirts after the last Black Market auction.
That means this person was also at our auction last time.
Just don’t know, which one of them could he be?"
"Someone noticed he had a disagreement with a cultivator at that time.
But it shouldn’t be possible, that person was only at the seventh-layer Qi Cultivation, and a Pill Master..."
"Should we investigate?"
"No!
For such a cultivator with boundless potential, even if we can find out who he is, we must not disturb him, let alone investigate further.
This person should only be befriended, not offended.
The focus should be on recruiting him."
"Alright!"
"Yes!"
...
"Finally out!
Formally stepping out of Divine Wind Valley!"
Zhou Changwang stood on the cliff top, his face showing a trace of joy.
Then he glanced at the Iron-Winged Giant Eagle, not having the time to deal with it, simply stored it in his Storage Bag.
Fortunately, although the giant eagle was huge, with the Storage Bag obtained from a Foundation Establishment Realm Cultivator, it wasn’t small, and he smoothly packed it inside.
Then, after briefly identifying the direction, he headed towards his Little Peak Mountain Spirit Land.
And shortly after he left.
Within Divine Wind Valley, the situation changed, and endless toxic mist rushed out once again.
The second wave of toxic mist followed swiftly.
However, all of Divine Wind Valley’s matters were no longer related to Zhou Changwang.
A few hours later.
Zhou Changwang successfully returned to Little Peak Mountain Spirit Land.
The entire Little Peak Mountain Spirit Land hadn’t changed much since he left.
Each Spirit Plant, even without his careful cultivation, could grow smoothly under the influence of abundant Spiritual Qi.
However, without the urging and ripening of the Annual Ring Skill, growth was slower.
Additionally, without maintenance for some time, weeds and Spirit Grass in the Spirit Field regrew rapidly, each growing quite tall.
Regarding this, Zhou Changwang had no other way but to constantly use Life-Cutting Finger, extracting Vitality Spiritual Liquid while quickly weeding.
It took him about an hour to restore the entire Spirit Field to its original state.
Thus, Zhou Changwang returned to his Cultivation Secret Room and started carefully tallying his harvest from this journey.
"Foundation Establishment Spiritual Object seedlings, a total of twenty-five plants.
Including five Earth Yin Lingzhi, three Bicolored Flowers, three Mother Earth’s Roots, four Celestial Union Spirit Fruits, three Dark Flowers, two Seven-Colored Immortal Lotuses, three Soul-Protecting Spirit Grass, two Nourishing Spirit Flowers... almost covering all Foundation Establishment Spiritual Objects except for the Ten Thousand Year Spirit Marrow.
