Carefree Path of Dreams

Chapter 1055 - Slaughter

Chapter 1055: Slaughter

“Ahwhoooo!”

Two winged wolves circled around, baring ferocious teeth and claws, exuding savageness.

“There’s no need to growl. The isolation power of this mysterious realm is greater than the Small Restriction Origin Banner. Even the Nascent Soul can’t sense you...”

Qing Meng’s face was icy cold as a Fey wolf growled behind him.

It might be one against two at the Primordial Core realm, but he was a core disciple of the Holy Mountain. He had superb magical powers and had no problem fending for himself for the time being.

Now, he would just open a path for the Fey wolves to kill Fang Yuan.

Fang Yuan stepped back and asked calmly, “Senior Brother, what are you doing?”

“It’s all your fault!” Qing Meng turned around with bloodshot eyes. “If it wasn’t for you, how would it have come to this?”

“What are you saying? I don’t understand!”

“Blame your master, Mo He... He offended too many people. If not, we wouldn’t have come out to monitor you specifically...” Qing Meng was obviously very assured about the mysterious realm. “Do you know why I stopped pretending? Because I don’t want to wait for anyone to come or anything else to happen! I’ll let the Fey wolves kill you now! The blood jade won’t be able to transmit anything back. Even if it does, it’ll just show that my ‘assistance’ was weak!”

“You actually want to kill me?” Fang Yuan smiled mysteriously. “Senior Brother, do you know that I have an ace up my sleeve?”

“Oh? What?”

Qing Meng crossed his arms proudly, still firm in his thinking that someone merely at the Materialization realm could do nothing to him.

“One of the things I’m best at is killing those at the Primordial Core realm while at the Materialization realm!” Fang Yuan smiled at Qing Meng while an imprint appeared on his forehead. “Nine Star Pearl Mystic Technique... fourth star, activate!”

Poof!

A thread of Saber Qi appeared directly behind Qing Meng’s head, beheading him in one strike.

“I don’t need to be worried since blood jade transmissions aren’t likely in the mysterious realm.”

Fang Yuan sneered and turned his attention toward the two Fey wolves.

They sensed that something was wrong and wanted to escape, but it was in vain because Fang Yuan slaughtered them with ease.

...

Outside the mysterious realm, thunder was rumbling in the sky. Five huge Fey beasts were faintly visible and surrounding the purple-robed Nascent Soul old man in the center.

“Outside cultivator? How dare you come to the Hundred Thousand Mountains? Aren’t you afraid of being entangled by us before eventually being killed by the patriarchs of the Holy Mountain?” A winged snake hissed.

“Hmph. Fey and barbarians are enemies. How dare you use the Immortal barbarians to talk me down!” The purple-robed Nascent Soul Stage old man’s eyes seemed to contain lightning. “Moreover... the Barbarian Ancestral Court, haha... might not be able to continue existing!”

He made a small move, and a huge purple cauldron appeared.

Thunder and fire emerged, and the cauldron immediately sucked the five Primordial Core Fey in.

“So strong!” As he walked out of the mysterious realm, Fang Yuan’s pupils shrank upon seeing this. “The Nascent Soul and Apotheosis realms are indeed far more powerful than the Primordial Core realm! Moreover... this old man is just at the early stage. This purple cauldron is probably a dao artifact. He probably cultivates terrifying nomological laws!”

The Primordial Core Fey collided and struggled against the purple cauldron, but none managed to escape. Every last one of them was refined.

“Ah!!! Humans!”

Towards the end, a white wolf Fey with a single horn on its forehead gave its last cry and vomited out its Fey core.

Bang!

The purple cauldron shook, and cracks appeared on its surface, but it did not break and continued to turn the Fey wolf into ashes.

“I heard that the toughest magic weapons to refine for those outside cultivators are cauldrons, seals, and banners. However, once the refining is successful, they will often have incredible power. I see that it’s true today!”

Fang Yuan nodded. “That white Fey wolf has a special bloodline and was the strongest among the five Great Fey, but it couldn’t struggle free of the purple cauldron. Is a Nascent Soul cultivator really that strong?”

The purple-robed old man turned toward Fang Yuan all of a sudden, with both eyes like lightning. “My two spirit beasts have lost contact, and your Primordial Core realm companion has disappeared as well. They should be in a nearby mysterious realm. Tell me honestly, and I can spare your life!”

He appeared beside Fang Yuan the next instant.

“Yes... Senior Brother Qing Meng lured the two wolf Fey into that mysterious realm in the lake...”

Fang Yuan pretended to be afraid and brought the old man to the entrance of the mysterious realm.

This old man’s aura... hasn’t changed the slightest, but there must be a drain on him since the purple cauldron has cracks, and he killed so many Primordial Core realm experts at once!

His thoughts were spinning fast, not resisting as the old man grabbed him and entered the mysterious realm.

“Kill!”

Once they entered, Fang Yuan was expressionless as he activated the fourth star and chopped with all his might.

The Nine Star Pearl was fully active. He was now at mid Materialization and enhancing his strength by sixteenfold, meaning that he was almost equivalent to the early Apotheosis realm. Coupled with his comprehension of the Nomological Laws of Saber at great success, Saber Realm, this attack made the old man change countenance immediately. “You...”

This Nascent Soul cultivator was also down on his luck. He had never imagined that a Materialization realm cultivator could launch an attack at the level of the Apotheosis realm!

Clang!

At the critical moment, the jade pendant around his waist flashed and turned into a black shield.

At the same time, his right hand attacked without hesitation. “Purple Fire Cauldron!”

“Pfft!” Purple Qi in the shape of a cauldron landed on Fang Yuan, making him fly backward and spit blood all over.

At the same time, his Saber Qi fell on the shield, and the sound of shattering rang out.

The purple-robed old was not happy at all as he looked at his jade pendant. There was an obvious crack on it.

“Damn it, you little...”

He waved his hand, gathered the Qi of Heaven and Earth into a light dragon, and was about to release it.

However, he was stunned the next moment.

Fang Yuan, who was still flying through the air, suddenly disappeared.

“As expected of the invisibility restriction of the Pantheon Palace. Even an Immortal would miss it if they didn’t examine closely, let alone merely someone at Nascent Soul!”

Fang Yuan gazed through a light screen at the purple-robed cultivator. Coldness spread across his face. “Ready...”

“Impossible. Why did he suddenly disappear? Did he trigger some invisible restriction?”

The cultivator went to where Fang Yuan had disappeared and started to examine carefully.

“Die, old fool!” An arm wielding a saber suddenly appeared from the void. “Double Blade!”

“Purple Cauldron Protection!” shouted the purple-robed cultivator. The purple cauldron appeared and enveloped him in it. The jade protection on his body also activated.

Pfft!

Two saber lights successively cut through the purple cauldron and the jade protection. The power dissipated.

“Haha... Boy, you can’t kill me!”

The cultivator revealed a smile, but his expression changed when he saw yet another saber light. “This is...”

“Triple Blade!!!”

Fang Yuan appeared from the void and landed the blow directly on the cultivator’s body.

A small, human-sized figure appeared with the same facial features as the cultivator. It hugged a small cauldron, glared at Fang Yuan venomously, and started to fly away.

Saber Qi emerged from the void and landed squarely on the Nascent Soul’s forehead.

It shrieked, fell, and dissipated in midair.

“I wonder what I can do with the Nascent Soul of a cultivator.”

Fang Yuan quickly formed some hand seals, and silky lights shot out, enveloping the Nascent Soul and sealing it inside a jade box.

A Nascent Soul stage cultivator, akin to a barbarian Apotheosis realm powerhouse, fell to his saber! Utterly destroyed!

“That move just now!”

Fang Yuan was in a daze as he stood holding his saber in the mysterious realm.

The spatial refraction of the Triple Blade was the improvement he had obtained in the Illusion Realm’s nomological laws through comprehending the mysterious realm.

But what made him overjoyed was something else—the other space mystery contained in that last move.

“The Illusion Realm’s nomological laws are the Nomological Laws of Space. How can there only be a refraction effect? I accidentally just used another kind... Ignore defense and attack the opponent’s vital points directly!”

Space was void. If the saber could fold, it could also penetrate.

For example, directly generating Saber Qi within the opponent’s defense and killing them in one strike!

Such a saber technique would be terrifying!

The Triple Blade that Fang Yuan comprehended was nearing such a trend.

“The Illusion Realm’s nomological laws indeed have limitless uses. It’s worthy of being similar to a Great Dao after complete comprehension!”

Fang Yuan turned over the cultivator’s corpse excitedly and found a storage bag. “There should be a lot of good things inside, but they’re probably not comparable to that purple cauldron dao artifact!”

His eyes lit up suddenly as he took out a token and two jade slips.

The body of the token was made of green jade and had the words ‘Kun Yun’ on it. There were two sets of cultivation techniques within the jade slips.

The ‘Bi Yuan Technique’ was the cultivation technique that the old man practiced. The other turned out to be some methods for capturing and raising spirit beasts.

“Ordinary cultivation techniques are burdens to me... This token, however, is enough to prove his identity. I’ve completed my mission.”

Fang Yuan knew his background immediately. He was from the Kun Yun Sect.

Gold Ingot provided him some common knowledge. This Kun Yun Sect might not be a Holy Land, but it was a top sect.

Crucially, it had good relationships with the Holy Lands.

“The Kun Yun Sect’s sphere of influence should be in the Kun Yun Mountains and some distance away from the Hundred Thousand Mountains. Why would they send a Nascent Soul Patriarch undercover?”

Fang Yuan fiddled with the token, slightly confused.

Gold Ingot’s voice came. “What are you going to do? Report everything upward?”

“Of course... not!” Fang Yuan sneered. “What am I supposed to say? I killed a Nascent Soul cultivator and obtained his token?

“I’ll only say that I found this token on Liu He... A Materialization disciple used cunning tricks to desperately kill a Golden Pill Venerable could be attributed to talent. But that wouldn’t work for someone at the Apotheosis realm.”

He sighed. “However, the Hundred Thousand Mountains... will become chaotic.”

Judging from what this old man said, the outside world must have been watching the Hundred Thousand Mountains for quite some time.

This time, they were definitely going to war.

After all, it was not the first time in history that the barbarians and the outside cultivators went to war.
