Attaining Immortality, Starting From Slaying Demons

Chapter 481: Chapter 453: Targeting the Treasure Flower Sect’s Nanyang Disciple Chapter 481: Chapter 453: Targeting the Treasure Flower Sect’s Nanyang Disciple “Alright.”

The Fairy of Baohua, though not believing that any affair related to the Aquatic Race could be trivial,

since Shen Yi was unwilling to elaborate, she was not one to pry unceasingly either.

With that thought, the Fairy of Baohua turned her gaze back toward the sky.

Old Man Zhang was sitting on his worn-out meditation cushion, sneakily hiding behind the clouds.

“Fellow Daoist, I’ll have to trouble you with the remaining matters. As for the reward, you can come directly to the Treasure Flower Sect to find me… You should know who I am,” the Fairy of Baohua sighed.

She really was too inexperienced in worldly affairs, only having brought two people with her, and both had already guessed her identity.

The next time she wanted to go out and travel, aside from cultivation, she really needed to learn more about these matters.

“Don’t worry, I guarantee everything will be taken care of,”

Old Man Zhang then revealed himself, having witnessed a battle between sixth-level Return to Void experts, which was something worth boasting about in all of Hongze.

However, compared to the Fairy of Baohua,

he was more astonished by that Senior Shen, who seemed unassuming but got around solely by using the Teleportation Technique and didn’t even possess a substitutive magical artifact.

It was only because Liu Young Master saw that he was overly fatigued that he invited the other party aboard the boat.

But when he made a move, it was a layer of heavenly palace.

With strength comparable to the fifth level of Returning Void, he would be more than qualified to be an outer sect elder in the Treasure Flower Sect.

What does it mean to hide one’s identity? The Fairy of Baohua should really learn from Senior Shen! Even an old hand like me was fooled.

“It… It won’t be too expensive, will it?”

The Fairy of Baohua suddenly sounded less confident with her additional query.

She suddenly remembered that she still owed Shen Yi a large debt.

“With your status, it’s not a big deal,” Old Man Zhang spoke truthfully this time. Although Nan Hong seemed stable on the surface, powers were vanishing nearly every day.

The territories left behind were countless; as long as one could afford the price, it was sufficient.

That Xiao family fortress had few people, it was a minor matter indeed.

“…”

Shen Yi listened silently, wanting to claim another share of the spoils.

However, he soon suppressed this thought.

Though there were plenty of places in the Nanyang Treasure Land, after all, he had gotten into trouble here, and it was better not to reveal his identity so readily.

That so-called “Dragon Master” definitely wasn’t someone he could afford to offend at this moment.

“Shen Daoist friend, I must return to the sect,” the Fairy of Baohua remembered the voice from the Jade Slip earlier, fell silent for a moment, and looked somewhat downcast again.

“I’ll come to collect the item after I’ve finished my duties.”

Shen Yi nodded. Though the cure for the poison was important, he had now almost gathered enough Town Stones for the palace upgrade.

It was better to find a place to make his breakthrough first.

“Won’t you come back with me?” the Fairy of Baohua looked up at him, suddenly feeling an unexpected reluctance. This was her first time traveling with someone else, and the experiences had been truly exciting. If she could savor today’s events a little longer on the road, it would be perfect.

“I’m off.”

Shen Yi left behind only a light remark and then transformed into a purple and white rainbow, disappearing from the spot.

“Uh.”

The Fairy of Baohua stood still for a while, confirming that he wasn’t going to suddenly reappear like he did when he stopped the Giant Wave Palm.

“Senior Bi Cui, he’s really gone this time,” Old Man Zhang slowly descended, softly reminding her, while inwardly chuckling at how the Fairy seemed not as cold and aloof as the rumors suggested.

“Then I’ll trouble you with this,”

The Fairy of Baohua forced a smile, waved her sleeve to gather up Xiao Yuanlin from the ruined fortress, and prepared to take him back to the sect for healing.

Then she too used the Teleportation Technique and left the area,

Heading for the Treasure Flower Sect.

…

The vast sea billowed, and the wind howled.

Shen Yi found a small island, closed his eyes, and swept the surroundings with his Divine Soul.

Making sure that no powerful entities were present,

he released Golden Threads tinged with black fog from his fingertips and set up the Five Elements Treasure Lotus Great Formation to trap himself within.

He then summoned the old dog to guard beside him.

Only then did he feel somewhat at ease.

It was only after leaving the protection of the Nan Hong Seven Sons and venturing out here that he realized how precious the Nanyang Treasure Land was.

At least within the Treasure Land, he didn’t have to worry about someone taking advantage of his vulnerability during his breakthrough.

He opened his eyes and accessed his panel to start tallying his gains.

The trip to the Treasure Flower Sect yielded approximately 760,000 years, and adding the leftovers from before, the total was nearly 900,000 years!

Easy come, easy go.

Shen Yi’s consciousness stirred, and six Town Stones appeared in the sea of his mind’s eye.

According to what Senior Xuan Qing had said previously, the first three palace upgrades required only one second-grade Dao Pillar each to complete the heavenly palace.

But that was definitely to save lifespan and spend more time breaking through to the White Jade Capital.

There was no need for Shen Yi to do the same, especially since he was using Demon lifespans.

It was better to build on a solid foundation; even if the quality wasn’t as high, at least the quantity had to be sufficient.

Following this, Shen Yi began the numb process of accumulating Demon Origin.

As for the target, none of the Aquatic Race seemed particularly outstanding, so he decided to choose based on cultivation.

First, of course, was the jiao-headed general of the sixth-level Returning Void.

This was probably the biggest loophole Shen Yi had found on this trip.

About fifteen pieces of Demon Origin were fed into it, finally reconstructing its Demon Soul.

In truth, keeping this jiao-headed general as a guard wouldn’t be a bad idea.

However, its identity was rather sensitive, and its features were too distinctive; it couldn’t possibly be summoned in front of others, or else the Dragon Palace would likely come knocking at his door immediately.

Moreover, if the Spiritual Physique Technique could be enhanced with Hongmeng Purple Qi,

then with an additional boost of purple qi, given his own strength, Shen Yi would likely have the power to preserve his life even when facing the sixth level of Returning Void.
