Chapter 140 - 136: Furnace Tripod Technique! Slaughter

Chapter 140: Chapter 136: Furnace Tripod Technique! Slaughter

BANG!

In a single move, the Dao Foundation cultivator’s body exploded. He was dead, his Dao extinguished.

"Late-stage Divine Body Realm!"

Xu Yuelin and the other Dao Foundation cultivators of the Xu Family stared at the old man, their faces ashen.

"As long as we’re alive, we can rebuild!"

"Run!"

Although the Divine Body Realm was only one major realm higher than Dao Foundation, the gap was wide enough to drive any Dao Foundation cultivator to despair.

Heaven-Defying Dao Foundation cultivators like Liu Xuan Cheng were a rare exception. To capture someone like him, one would need to dispatch a master of the Three Flowers Realm.

In reality, an ordinary Dao Foundation cultivator stood no chance against someone in the Divine Body Realm.

This was especially true since Elder Mo was in the late-stage Divine Body Realm. Above his Dao Foundation, he had already cultivated a Divine Tree Trunk.

Empowered by the effects of the Divine Tree Trunk, Elder Mo’s defensive and regenerative abilities were enough to make any normal Dao Foundation cultivator despair.

Upon seeing Elder Mo, the members of the Xu Family instantly lost their will to fight. Their only thought was that for every person who escaped, that was one who survived.

’A Divine Body Realm expert, fighting over a place like this? What for?’

Jiang Zuo was speechless as he watched.

The Spiritual Qi on the Xu Family’s land was, at best, suitable for the cultivation of Dao Foundation cultivators. A Divine Body Realm expert cultivating here would have their progress severely hampered; several years of cultivation here wouldn’t even equal one year for others elsewhere.

Within a radius of tens of thousands of miles, any family with a member who broke through to the Divine Body Realm would do everything in their power to move to a place with denser Spiritual Qi.

But no matter what this old Divine Body Realm expert was thinking, Jiang Zuo knew the Xu Family was finished.

That being the case, it was time for him to get out of there too.

Inside his wooden hut, Jiang Zuo’s figure flickered, and he dashed up toward Black Mountain.

’Before I run, I have to dig up that small tree.’

Before long, Jiang Zuo reached the summit of Black Mountain.

’This ground is so hard?’

The small tree on the summit looked very ordinary. It was much smaller than the surrounding Spirit Wood, not even two meters tall, and it even looked a little malnourished.

If it weren’t for the Gray Rock Rats digging around everywhere, Jiang Zuo would never have discovered Black Mountain’s secret.

Jiang Zuo had thought digging up such a small tree would be an easy task.

Unexpectedly, the soil around the tree’s roots was both hard and tough. With a forceful swing of his hoe, Jiang Zuo could only dig up less than half a hoe’s worth of dirt.

He had no choice but to lower his head and keep digging stubbornly.

While digging, he controlled his Blood Qi Avatar to observe the battle in the Marketplace, occasionally sneaking over to loot the corpses.

Neither side had expected someone like him to be present. The fight was so intense that no one could be bothered with looting bodies.

There were other cultivators below who had the same idea as Jiang Zuo, but unfortunately for them, trying to out-loot a Blood Qi Avatar was a fool’s dream.

Although the Xu Family’s Dao Foundation cultivators all wanted to scatter and flee, the cultivators from the Wei Family weren’t just there to watch the show.

They were prepared. The moment Elder Mo appeared, they charged forward, tying up the Xu Family’s cultivators.

They didn’t even need to hold them for long. Elder Mo was incredibly powerful. The Xu Family’s Dao Foundation cultivators could barely withstand two of his attacks before they were gravely injured and killed.

Of the Xu Family members and the Dao Foundation cultivators they had hired, very few managed to escape.

Jiang Zuo had already swiped several storage bags. Seeing that the battle was winding down, he didn’t linger.

His Blood Qi Avatar flickered and, instead of returning to rendezvous with Jiang Zuo, headed off in a different direction.

Up on Black Mountain, Jiang Zuo’s strenuous efforts were finally paying off. He was almost done digging.

In just a little while longer, he would be able to take the small tree.

But just then, two figures—one chasing, one fleeing—rushed in his direction. Or rather, they were heading for the small tree.

"Haha, Xu Xiuyun, you’ve finally realized it, haven’t you? What you’ve been practicing isn’t the Celestial Sound Sect’s Hundred Charms Skill, but a Furnace Tripod Technique from our Mo Family’s Yin Yang Sect—the Charming Woman Yin Heart Scripture!"

"Now that you’ve practiced this technique, you are fated to become my cultivation furnace! You cannot defy my commands!"

Mo Tianxing laughed triumphantly as he chased after Xu Xiuyun.

"You attacked our Xu Family just for me? You want to use me as your furnace to break through to the Divine Body Realm?"

Xu Xiuyun demanded, her voice a mixture of shock and fury.

She had always believed she was practicing the Celestial Sound Sect’s Hundred Charms Skill.

The Celestial Sound Sect was one of the Ten Great Sects of the Western Divine Continent. To get from the Ancestral Continent of the human race to the Western Divine Continent, one had to cross the Endless Sea.

Cultivators below the Dao Foundation realm, even if they traveled on the Spiritual Ships of the great merchant guilds, could not make the journey safely. Only those who had reached the Divine Body Realm were qualified to board.

Legend had it that in order to recruit female cultivators from the Ancestral Continent who were suited for its techniques, the Celestial Sound Sect had secretly distributed a version of the Hundred Charms Skill.

Any female cultivator who could reach the Divine Body Realm using this technique would be able to join the Celestial Sound Sect upon arriving in the Western Divine Continent.

Xu Xiuyun had never joined any other sect precisely because she planned to cultivate to the Divine Body Realm, travel to the Western Divine Continent, and become a disciple of the Celestial Sound Sect.

But she had never, ever imagined that the cultivation technique she had obtained was actually a Furnace Tripod Technique!

"As long as you know! Stop running, you can’t escape!"

Mo Tianxing let out a sinister chuckle.

This barren land, bordering the Mortal Territory of the human race, was the perfect place to spread the Furnace Tripod Techniques of the Yin Yang Sect.

All they had to do was make a few small changes to the technique, and they could trick cultivators into believing they were practicing the Celestial Sound Sect’s Hundred Charms Skill.

That way, the women would cultivate with extreme diligence.

The Mo Family just had to wait for the right moment to come and reap the fruits of their labor.

Mo Tianxing had reached a bottleneck in his cultivation. Although Xu Xiuyun had hidden her progress from the outside world, Mo Tianxing had seen her true realm with a single glance.

Seeing that Xu Xiuyun was about to break through to the late-stage Dao Foundation, Mo Tianxing immediately decided to choose her as the furnace for his own breakthrough.

Xu Xiuyun was exceptionally talented. As a furnace, she would naturally be of great benefit to him.

At the same time, Xu Xiuyun’s beauty also made Mo Tianxing’s heart race.
