“What are you doing?”
The scar-faced youth clung to his body and kept moving backwards, his face full of terror as he stared at Yang Zhen.
The mischievous cat also widened his eyes, looking dumbfounded at Yang Zhen. Surprised, he asked, “Kid, you’re not thinking about doing that ‘Dragon-yang’ stuff here, are you?”
At the cat’s words, the scar-faced youth’s face darkened, and he yelped before turning to run. He had not taken two steps when he tripped and fell face-first onto the ground. He struggled to get up, only to be kicked back down by Yang Zhen.
“Damn it, why are you running? Is it going to kill you to let me have some fun?”
The scar-faced youth shivered all over, turning back with an almost tear- stricken face, “You… you can’t do this!”
Yang Zhen laughed heartily, squatting in front of the scar-faced youth with eager curiosity. Slowly and steadily, he said, “Then you’d better answer my questions thoroughly. What, exactly, is the Golden Fate Ball for?”
“You… you don’t know?” The scar-faced youth’s face twisted oddly, clearly thinking Yang Zhen was trying to trick him.
Yang Zhen gave the scar-faced youth a slap on the forehead and sternly said, “Answer the question. What does it matter whether I know or not?”
A devil, he must be a devil!
The scar-faced youth was on the verge of tears. He hastily replied, “The Golden Fate Ball is a sort of key. It can open the Heavenly Destiny Spring on the Spirit Road. The more Golden Fate Balls you have, the longer you can cultivate in the Heavenly Destiny Spring.”
“What the hell is the Heavenly Destiny Spring?”
The scar-faced youth glared at Yang Zhen with humiliation and resentment. This was common knowledge among those on the Spirit Road. He obviously thought Yang Zhen was messing with him!
“The Heavenly Destiny Spring is a celestial gifting site. Cultivating in it can enhance the power of the Spirit Soul and stabilize the Divine Consciousness Space,” the scar-faced youth answered through gritted teeth.
Yang Zhen had a sudden realization and asked in surprise, “Is the Golden Fate Ball hard to come by?”
The scar-faced youth gave a bitter smile. This was another well-known fact, but he seemed to realize that Yang Zhen was a first-timer on the Spirit Road. He nodded slightly and said, “Golden Fate Balls can only be obtained by killing Golden Fate Beasts, and there are very few of them left now. So, Golden Fate Balls are extremely rare. On the Spirit Road, a single Golden Fate Ball can almost exchange for anything!”
“What? Really?”
Yang Zhen was genuinely surprised and, at the same time, felt like he was hugging the whole world in his arms.
That felt damn good.
Could this be the feeling of suddenly becoming insanely wealthy?
“Could it even be exchanged for a woman’s body,” Yang Zhen asked, with growing interest.
The scar-faced youth looked woeful and reluctantly answered, “Not just any woman’s body, but even the body of a spirit woman, as long as you have enough Golden Fate Balls.”
“Damn, we struck it rich!” The mischievous cat jumped with joy, nearly falling when it landed.
Yang Zhen kicked him and scornfully said, “Look at you, no ambition whatsoever!”
The mischievous cat was furious, glaring at Yang Zhen, “You were the one who mentioned it first!”
“I was just making casual comments, and you took it seriously?” Yang Zhen glanced at the mischievous cat and said, “Why would the body of a spirit woman be so valuable? A Saintess, maybe. Besides, who needs to pay such an outrageous price for a woman?”
The mischievous cat was stunned and muttered to itself, “Damn, keep bragging!”
Yang Zhen looked triumphant as he asked the mischievous cat, “Do you have any other questions?”
“No more!” The mischievous cat replied succinctly.
“Oh!”
Taking in Yang Zhen’s nonchalant response, the scar-faced youth shivered, tightened the few pieces of cloth he had left on his body, and cautiously asked Yang Zhen, “Can… can I go now?”
“Go?” Yang Zhen was taken aback, “Oh, hold on a moment!”
Saying so, Yang Zhen ignored the scar-faced youth. He punched the ground, creating a pit. With a casual wave, he drew energy characters around himself. Immediately, his True Essence was layered around him, hidden yet ready to strike.
“What… what are you going to do?” The scar-faced youth revealed a touch of uncertain fear on his face.
“Plant carrots!” Yang Zhen laughed uproariously, grabbing the scar-faced young man and tearing off his storage ring and remaining clothes. All that was left was a loincloth around his waist—Yang Zhen proceeded to uproot him like a scallion and shoved his head into a hole.
“Bastard, you said you would let me go!” The scar-faced young man struggled violently but found himself flabby and weak, incapable of even the slightest strength.
Hearing the scar-faced young man’s words, Yang Zhen was taken aback and turned to the scoundrel cat, asking, “Did I say that?”
“No!” The scoundrel cat also looked perplexed.
“Seems like I didn’t!” The man and cat echo in unison.
“You damn…”
After Yang Zhen and the scoundrel cat filled the hole with surrounding soil and rocks, they stood up, just about to call out to the cat to continue moving forward, when they suddenly saw the cat urinating on the soil and rocks, and looked at it in amazement, “What the hell are you doing?”
The scoundrel cat trembled all over, sprinkled some soil on it, and looked smug, “I’m watering it with my spirit fluid to make it stronger.”
“Damn it, we forgot to ask him where the Heavenly Destiny Spring is!”
The scoundrel cat was stunned: “Quickly, quickly, dig him out!”
Sure enough, the Spirit Road was a remarkable place, Yang Zhen and the scoundrel cat came from the Golden Road, and they actually encountered other people at the exit. From the look of it, this certainly wasn’t a straight path leading to the so-called Spirit Peak.
In this case, Yang Zhen wouldn’t worry about boredom. After all, it was kind of boring to not see a single person all the way.
However, since Yang Zhen had clarified the location of Heavenly Destiny Spring from the scar-faced young man, he did encounter people along the way, but they all happened to be dead, and their deaths were extremely dreadful.
“Tsk, tsk, whoever it was must really hold a grudge to be so ruthless,” said Yang Zhen as he looked at a body without a head, commenting in astonishment.
The scoundrel cat glanced over and said, “This is only the beginning, the path of cultivation is long and fraught with battles and looting. You haven’t seen a road made of piled-up bones yet.”
Yang Zhen was stunned, turned his head to look at the scoundrel cat in amazement, and asked, “You’ve seen it?”
“What?” The scoundrel cat looked confused.
Yang Zhen slapped it but missed as it dodged, “A road made of piled-up bones, isn’t that a mountain of corpses?”
The scoundrel cat was stunned, “Did I say, a road laid with bones, mountain of corpses… damn it, it does stir some memories.”
“Where did you see it?”
“I forgot!”
Yang Zhen’s eye twitched. This bastard’s memory was getting worse, and he had been muttering to himself a lot lately. Apparently, he was getting more and more deranged due to living for too long.
Perhaps due to the delay, Yang Zhen and the scoundrel cat walked on. Apart from seeing some bodies every now and again, they didn’t encounter a single living soul.
It wasn’t until late on the third day that Yang Zhen and the scoundrel cat finally showed some excitement, exchanging glances.
Not far ahead, waves of true essence fluctuations came over, evidently, there were quite a few people over there.
Just as their eyes lit up, a towering pillar of light sprang up from a not-too- distant place ahead, piercing the sky in the blink of an eye and illuminating the firmament.
Rich, unusual aura fluctuations were rushing towards them. Even with all they’d seen along their journey, this force still took Yang Zhen and the scoundrel cat aback.
This power, seeming to strike directly at the essence of life itself, enveloped Yang Zhen and caused his spirit soul to tremble. However, it wasn’t a chilling tremble but rather quite a pleasant one.
Yang Zhen looked at the scoundrel cat in surprise and was taken aback. This bastard was squinting his eyes, looking utterly content and even purring as if he were a satisfied feline.
“Don’t just stand there, let’s go take a look!”
Yang Zhen kicked the scoundrel cat’s butt and made his way forward, the cat hurriedly followed.
There were quite a few powerful practitioners ahead. If Yang Zhen’s guess was correct, that should be the so-called Heavenly Destiny Spring.
