Chapter 387: 136 High Quality Spiritual Root, Special Constitution (10K for Monthly Tickets)_1

Bayao Ridge Market.

A puppet-like Dao figure sat in the corner of the main hall on the first floor of the busiest tavern in the marketplace, ordering a few signature spirit plant dishes. While sipping a small glass of wine and indulging in the delicacies, he listened to the casual conversation of the surrounding cultivators.

Being a puppet, he naturally didn’t have any cravings. He was here mainly to collect news from the outside world.

“News from the Taixu Immortal Alliance came out a while ago, saying that they wanted to rally their cultivators and wage war against our Great Moon Mansion. Scared, I hurriedly bought a few first-order high-quality amulets. But now, the news is that a demon called ‘Taoist Xuanming’ ran from the Nine Souls Demon Ridge to the Purple Light Mansion of the Taixu Immortal Alliance and bloodily sacrificed an entire fairy city.”

“It’s quite frightening. However, haha, that’s the Taixu Immortal Alliance’s fairy city. Now, it’s said that the cultivators of the Taixu Immortal Alliance are furious and want to skin ‘Taoist Xuanming’ alive.”

“So, it seems like the Taixu Immortal Alliance won’t have the energy to think about waging war any time soon.”

An old cultivator with white hair, in the late stage of Qi Refinement, was laughing and talking with two companions.

A chubby cultivator at the next table turned his head and said, “Don’t celebrate too soon. You only know that Taoist Xuanming sacrificed a small fairy city of the Taixu Immortal Alliance, but you don’t know his background.”

The white-haired cultivator frowned at him and said, “Oh? So, you know more?”

“Of course.” The chubby cultivator nodded proudly, “My master is one of the Foundation Establishment representatives of Bai Yue Immortal City. Is there any news I do not know?”

“Waiter, bring a jar of good Spring Thunder Burning Spiritual Wine for this friend.” The white-haired cultivator’s eyes lit up at the news. He immediately shouted out loud, then turned to the chubby cultivator, “Please, can you continue?”

The chubby cultivator’s face became serious, his expression extremely solemn. His demeanor caused a stir among the other cultivators in the tavern who were interested in the news, making the atmosphere tense.

In a low voice, the chubby cultivator said, “Taoist Xuanming claims to be the reincarnation of an ancient demon king. As soon as he was born, he slaughtered countless demons on Nine Souls Demon Ridge. His strength and cultivation began to soar, and with it, Taoist Xuanming’s notoriety spread across the entire Nine Souls Demon Ridge.”

“The Nine Souls Demon Palace was naturally furious. They were planning to join forces with the Taixu Immortal Alliance to take action against our Great Moon Mansion.”

“But because of Taoist Xuanming, the Nine Souls Demon Palace is now unable to fend for itself. Several attempts to search and besiege Taoist Xuanming have ended with many of their own being killed and Taoist Xuanming escaping, causing heavy losses.”

“This is what happened in the demons, and even more so amongst us cultivators. Look, as soon as Taoist Xuanming left the Nine Souls Demon Ridge, he sacrificed an entire fairy city of the Taixu Immortal Alliance.”

“If such a demon were to fully grow, who amongst us cultivators could stop him? If he came to the Great Moon Mansion… I just cursed myself. I don’t want him to come!”

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the white-haired cultivator and other people in the tavern changed. They shivered in fear.

“He’s the reincarnation of an ancient demon king?”

“Is this for real or fake?”

“This demon started his slaughter on the Nine Souls Demon Ridge, and once he left, he bloodily sacrificed a fairy city? What kind of demon is this? Killing so many people and he’s still not insane!”

“Don’t panic! He’s so arrogant; he probably won’t live much longer!”

The cultivators in the tavern were a bit panicked, causing a flurry of discussion.

At this moment, two males and one female, young cultivators sitting in another corner of the tavern, one of the young men casually said, “You all are behind on the news about the bloody sacrifice.”

“A recent message from the Purple Light Mansion said that the demon had slaughtered two more cultivator families. And each was a powerful cultivator family with a Core Formation ancestor.”

Gasps resounded around.

“Two more cultivators’ families with Core Formation True Men have been exterminated?” The tavern erupted into an uproar, some cultivators’ faces turning pale.

The Dao-embodied puppet glanced at the young cultivators, noticing their Yunjian Sect disciple uniform.

The males were handsome and robust, and the female was lovely and delicate.

However, they all were neophytes, displaying the vitality that seasoned cultivators lacked.

Noticing their youthful faces, the Dao figure’s mind wandered back to when he had first met Chen Sisi, Luo Qianyu, and Yu Qianqing in Cloud Mountain Marketplace.

At that time, Chen Sisi, Luo Qianyu, Yu Qianqing, and others were wearing similar clothing to the female disciple of the Yunjian Sect that he was looking at now.

In a flowing white gown, their demeanor might’ve been immature, but their transcendent qualities were evident.

Listening to the various discussions and exclamations around him, the puppet clone came back to his senses, smiling faintly as he paid his bill and left.

Pretty soon.

The waiter went up to the table of the three Yunjian Sect initiates and respectfully handed them a Qiankun Bag, saying, “Three immortals, a customer just left these items for you.”

The Yunjian Sect initiate who had tried to show off earlier was taken aback, following the waiter’s gaze only to see an empty table.

“Who sent this? What’s inside?”

He was a bit puzzled, so he opened the Qiankun Bag.

Inside were three small jade vials and three talismans.

The small jade vials each contained ten drops of second-grade lower-level Spiritual Liquid, and the talismans were second-grade lower-level Mirror Moon Symbols.

Looking at these items, the three initiates new to the path of cultivation were stunned.

“This is such pure Spiritual Liquid!”

“Talismans! These are second-grade lower-level Mirror Moon Symbols! Damn!”

“All these treasures… they’re for us?”
