Chapter 303: Chapter 303: Profound Snake and Spirit Marrow

"Watch out. I’m about to strike!"

The Nascent Soul Female Cultivator waited a moment, speaking only after all the Golden Core Peak Cultivators had prepared themselves.

BOOM!

The instant she finished speaking, her aura changed completely. She seemed to transform into an Ancient Fierce Beast, unleashing a terrifying, heart-stopping presence.

An immense pressure instantly washed over the crowd. That pressure alone was enough to suppress most cultivators below the Nascent Soul realm.

BANG!

The next moment, she casually raised a hand and threw a punch. The blow created a thunderous boom, and a massive shadow of a fist materialized in the air before her.

CRACK! CRACK! CRACK!

The various techniques deployed by the Golden Core Peak Cultivators were instantly shattered, swept aside as if they were rotted wood.

Some of the ordinary Low Grade Magical Treasures were directly shattered.

Immediately after, the Golden Core Peak Cultivators were sent flying backward like kites with their strings cut.

Most of them crashed to the ground in a pathetic heap, unable to rise. Only ten managed to somersault through the air and land on their feet, albeit unsteadily.

This group included Zhang Chi, Shen Jianping, and Lang Shiyuan.

Blood trickled from the corners of Shen Jianping’s and Lang Shiyuan’s mouths. Their faces were pale, but they gritted their teeth and held their ground.

Zhang Chi, on the other hand, was largely unharmed despite being knocked back. He merely felt his inner qi and blood roil within him.

This was not only because of his powerful defenses, but also because their opponent hadn’t used her full strength in that punch.

Moreover, her strike had been aimed at too many targets, its force greatly dispersed. Each Golden Core Peak Cultivator had only borne a fraction of its true power.

’So powerful. Just as I’d expect from someone from a Super Large Oasis. Still, these Golden Core Cultivators aren’t bad themselves. After all, it’s incredibly difficult for an ordinary Golden Core Cultivator to even withstand the pressure of a Nascent Soul True Monarch!’

Zhang Chi marveled to himself.

He vividly remembered how, back in the Great Abyss, the Nascent Soul True Monarch from the True Demon Sect had incapacitated Jian Jinfeng and the others with his aura alone.

Of course, there were specific reasons these Golden Core Peak Cultivators could withstand the pressure.

Many of them knew they would be facing a Tier Four Low Grade Demon Beast before they even accepted the mission. Naturally, they had made preparations to counter the powerful pressure of a Demon Beast.

"You cultivators from Beichen Oasis are far too weak. However, I am a True Monarch, and my word is my bond. Since the ten of you can still stand, you pass!" The Nascent Soul Female Cultivator sounded quite disappointed, but she did not break her promise.

The woman at Golden Core Peak and the Golden Armor Nascent Soul also shook their heads slightly, clearly unsatisfied.

But considering this wasn’t a Super Large Oasis, it was normal for the local Golden Core Cultivators to be weaker, so neither of them objected.

Besides, while their mission posting asked for nine people, one extra person wouldn’t have a major impact.

"Thank you, Senior!"

The ten Golden Core Peak Cultivators were overjoyed.

"The ten of you, remember to perform well," the Huixing City Lord added. "Complete the mission, and I will have a generous reward for you upon your return!"

"Thank you, City Lord!"

The ten Golden Core Peak Cultivators were delighted once more.

"What a pity!"

The eliminated Golden Core Peak Cultivators watched with immense envy. Not only had they missed out on the opportunity, but they were all injured as well.

And since it was their own choice, they would have to find a way to treat their injuries themselves.

"Here are some Healing Elixirs. Each of you take one so that you’ll be in peak condition for the mission."

"Furthermore, there’s no time to waste. We’ll sign the Spirit Contract now," the young woman at Golden Core Peak, dressed in white, said.

Her voice was like that of a young girl, a clear sign of her youth. She was undoubtedly one of the top prodigies from the Super Large Oasis.

"Thank you, Fairy!"

The Golden Core Peak Cultivators all expressed their thanks.

Many of the cultivators consumed the Healing Elixirs on the spot and were amazed to find their injuries healing rapidly.

They were pleasantly surprised, and their reverence for the visitors grew.

Zhang Chi, however, noticed that while the Healing Elixirs looked dark and unimpressive, they were in fact defective Nine Revolutions Soul Reviving Pills.

The Nine Revolutions Soul Reviving Pill was a Tier Four Healing Medicine. Therefore, even a defective one was exceptionally effective and incredibly valuable.

This filled him with even greater anticipation.

After all, if they could hand out Elixirs like this, they must be incredibly wealthy. Perhaps they truly could provide multiple Nascent Soul Spiritual Objects.

Zhang Chi, however, didn’t consume the Elixir. Instead, he quietly stored it away in his Storage Ring.

After all, he wasn’t injured in the slightest; it would be a waste to use it.

After that, the two parties drew up a Spirit Contract on the spot.

The Spirit Contract’s contents were detailed, but not complex.

The cultivators breathed a collective sigh of relief when they saw the contract stipulated that their employers would neither send them to their deaths nor attack them without reason.

Then, both parties signed the Spirit Contract.

SWOOSH!

Immediately after, the Nascent Soul Female Cultivator waved her hand, summoning an Upper Grade Magical Treasure: a Cyan Boat over a hundred feet long. With everyone aboard, and under the City Lord’s respectful gaze, they soared high into the sky, leaving Huixing City far behind.

Huixing City was located on the edge of the Beichen Oasis. The Upper Grade Magical Treasure Flying Boat was exceptionally fast, so after only half a day, the group found themselves flying over the desert.

"Everyone, since you have already signed the Spirit Contract and we have left the Oasis, it is time for you to know certain things."

"The truth is, we are from the Hundred Flowers Oasis. This young lady is the daughter of the Palace Master of the Hundred Flowers Palace, and its future leader. You may address her as Young Palace Master or Saintess. The other Nascent Soul Cultivator and I are both Elders of the Hundred Flowers Palace."

"So, perform well. If you ever find yourselves in the Hundred Flowers Oasis in the future, you will be treated favorably. You may even have the chance to join our Hundred Flowers Palace," the Nascent Soul Female Cultivator suddenly said.
