Chapter 282: Daoist Brother, I Have A Way
Yun Wuya stared intently at Xu Disheng and said, "Because you seem to find it beneath yourself! You also know that our role here is merely to clean up the battlefield, a menial task. With just one move, The Azure Ocean Overflows,' from Profound Insight Greater Lord of the Profound Depth Spiritual World, a million lives from the Moon Ghost Sect were obliterated, leaving us no need to even deal with the remnants! You and I are of the same kind, each harboring deep pride within ourselves. Am I correct?"
Xu Disheng slightly lifted his gaze, noticing the true emotions of anger, dissatisfaction, and ambition in the depths of Yun Wuya's gaze.
He wasn't aware of Yun Wuya's past experiences or whom these emotions were directed towards and had no intention of delving deeper. He simply shook his head in response and said, "Hall Master, you exaggerate. I merely have no need for more resources."
Yun Wuya seemed to notice the slight withdrawal in Xu Disheng's demeanor. The depth in his gaze deepened as he continued, "When the order of the Central Region is fully restored, and the prizes from the Dawndusk Daoist Rankings are given out, the reward for first place on both stages of the Daoist Ranking is Ice Spirit Snow Essence, personally harvested by Heavenly Lord Mo Yu from the peak of Spirit Frost Mountain in the Guixue Area. There are two in total, and I refuse to believe youd be indifferent to them."
After saying this, the enormous Primordial Spirit stage flood dragon beneath him roared, quickly ascending into the sky with a series of sonic booms.
Yun Wuya's voice faintly resounded in Xu Dishengs ears again. "Supreme Spirit Master, you look even better than when we last met at the Dawndusk Daoist Alliance's Administration Hall, he said.
Standing alone atop the celestial turtle, Xu Disheng watched the flood dragon vanish into the distance, speechless.
"Junior Martial Brother Xu!
The imposing aura of a half-step Primordial Spirit stage Spirit Master approached, and the massive shadow of the Cloud Soaring Luan cast a massive shadow over the area below, making the celestial turtle seem tiny in comparison.
Li Xuanji, visibly excited, was about to speak to Xu Disheng but suddenly remembered something and gestured with a light wave of his hand. "All of you go on ahead, there's no need to hand over your findings, he instructed.
"Yes, Profound Stillness Spirit Master!"
Nearly a hundred Divine Core stage and several hundred Dao Foundation stage cultivators from the Dawndusk Daoist Alliance, excitedly dove into the Cerulean Sea Area below upon receiving the order, already coveting the loot left behind in the Moon Ghost Sect.
"Senior Martial Brother Xuanji," Xu Disheng greeted. Noticing Li Xuanji's cultivation was still at the half-step Primordial Spirit stage, he expressed some confusion. "According to your cultivation progress, you should have already reached the Primordial Spirit stage by now. Also, why are there now so many members of the Dawndusk Daoist Alliance under your command?"
Li Xuanji, landing on the celestial turtle with his treasure, teased, "Junior Martial Brother Xu, your appearance has changed quite a bit. You were already handsome before, but now you've become even more striking. No wonder Alighting Moon Primordial Lord from the Yin-Yang Daoist Sect did not break her promise as usual."
The mischievous look in his eyes was filled with implied meaning.
A half-step Primordial Spirit stage Spirit Master from the Cloud Soaring Luan who hadn't joined the fray also landed on the celestial turtle. He laughed and said, "Each of you said one line, but neither seemed to have anything to do with the other."
Li Xuanji gave a sheepish laugh and introduced Xu Disheng to the newcomer. "This is Daoist Brother Feng Wuji, titled Blade Demon Spirit Master. He is ranked seventh on the Daoist Rankings, and is from the Sword Saint Sect, a peak-level force. We've been traveling together, hence the nearly hundred Divine Core stage Spirit Masters on the Cloud Soaring Luan."
"Being so close to Profound Stillness Daoist Brother from the Spirit Race, you must be the renowned Supreme Spirit Master I've heard so much about," Feng Wuji said, clearly familiar with Xu Disheng's name.
From the Spirit Race, only Xu Disheng and Li Xuanji were at the Divine Core stage in the Dawndusk Daoist Alliance's Administration Hall, making Xu Disheng easily recognizable with the purple Spiritual Force that surrounded him.
"Blade Demon Daoist Brother, you flatter me," Xu Disheng replied. "Why have you and Profound Stillness Daoist Brother taken so long to arrive when the other Supervising Spirit Masters have been here for some time?"
Feng Wuji glanced at Li Xuanji before shaking his head, "Profound Stillness Daoist Brother encountered a water palace along the way. Its master was a Rank 8 water deity, overseeing the Huai River System."
Xu Disheng raised an eyebrow and said, "Such mountain and river deities are a dime a dozen. What's so special about her?"
"The deity of the Huai River System turned out to be an exceptionally beautiful young woman. Profound Stillness Daoist Brother fell for her at first sight, wanting to"
Feng Wuji gave a wry smile as he trailed off, implying his meaning.
Li Xuanji sighed lightly and picked up where he left off. "Unfortunately, she was born from the water spirits of the Huai River, and was pure and kind-hearted. Despite my persistence, I ultimately couldnt bring myself to force her into anything."
He paused, seemingly recalling something, then looked up with a smile, "Junior Martial Brother Xu, that Alighting Moon Primordial Lord from the Yin-Yang Daoist Sect is incredibly beautiful, far surpassing that water deity I fancied. If you were to become dao companions with her, it wouldnt be beneath you."
Xu Disheng thought of the palace-dressed woman with picturesque brows, a hint of iciness flashing through his eyes. He chose not to continue on this subject but instead said, "Once the matters here are concluded, the peak-level forces in the Profound Yin Spiritual World are unlikely to openly resist the Dawndusk Daoist Alliance anymore. It's an opportunity for us to accumulate merits for the Daoist Rankings."
Feng Wuji's eyes lit up as he said, "Supreme Spirit Master, I know of a way to quickly accumulate Daoist Ranking merits, he said.
Li Xuanji glanced at him, "Why didn't you mention it earlier? We've been sharing merits since we teamed up, but you've been holding back a secret this whole time?"
Feng Wuji explained, "This method isn't applicable in the Dawndusk Territory or Mang Mountain Territory. Most sects there have already pledged allegiance to the Dawndusk Daoist Alliance, so my approach wouldn't work."
Xu Disheng speculated lightly, "Sword Demon Daoist Brother, does your method involve disregarding whether the forces we clear have pledged allegiance or not, indiscriminately killing them for merit?"
Feng Wuji confirmed, "Exactly. Regardless of their allegiance or type, annihilating them all indiscriminately as we go can quickly accumulate merits. I've tried it beforethe Dawndusk Spiritual Essence does not care about the details."
Xu Dishengs expression turned strange. This method his Divine Core stage and Dao Foundation stage subordinates also seemed to have done this before already.
Previously, to enhance Zhang Duoyu's cultivation base, his Dao Foundation stage cultivators exterminated tens of thousands of living beings. Although many were ordinary mortals, numerous small-scale forces had already pledged allegiance to the Dawndusk Daoist Alliance and submitted all their resources and spiritual items. Yet, they met with annihilation, their souls utterly destroyed.
