Chapter 126: Chapter 51 Parasitei

“Damnit!”

Aman casually crushes the heart of a minor monster undergoing Essence Refining, and a huge amount of essence blood continuously flows into his body, sketching out brilliant and magnificently splendid patterns.

On the ground around him, more than ten minor monsters have had their hearts removed, their emaciated bodies stacked haphazardly to one side.

With Aman devouring the essence blood of the last minor monster, his aura suddenly reaches the peak of the Essence Refining Stage.

In just five short days, he had leaped from being an ordinary person to a true cultivator, even being just one step away from advancing to the Qi Transformation Stage.

However, due to the rapid advancement in his realm, even as a cultivator of the Demon Path, he couldn’t avoid some negative effects.

Uncontrolled Essence Elements and blood surged unceasingly, the bulging veins and flesh kept squirming, making Aman’s once naive and tender face appear extremely hideous and frightening.

” Damn it! This is already the eighth batch of the monster tribe, don’t they fear death at all?”

Aman couldn’t help but curse aloud.

Ever since he killed the Black Wind Mountain God by taking advantage of an opportunity two days ago, members of the monster tribe have been relentlessly pursuing him.

At first, it was just one or two small monsters undergoing Essence Refining, then it became three or four, then five or six, and later he even encountered a monster tribe at the Qi Transformation Stage and the peak level Earth Deities.

The moment these monsters found him, they immediately locked onto him as the murderer of the Black Wind Mountain God, and demanded him to hand over the Mountain God Seal.

Indeed, he did kill the Black Wind Mountain God, but his master in the ring told him that the Mountain God Seal was just a tasteless bone of a chicken, so he did not take the Mountain God’s seal with him.

But no matter how he explained, those monsters still attacked him without hesitation.

During this period, he personally killed the minor monsters undergoing Essence Refining. After absorbing the essence blood of the Black Wind Mountain God, he has advanced to the Essence Refining Stage, so killing these minor monsters was easy.

As for the monsters at the Qi Transformation Stage and the Earth Deities, they ended up as food for his master.

However, since his master had experienced three thousand years of Spirit Energy depletion, his cultivation and Divine Skills had not been restored, thus he could only use some of his saved trump cards.

The Blood Transformation Divine Sword, Blood Sea Talisman Treasure, Great Demon Transformation Method… These trump cards shouldn’t be used at this time at all. Even using them to slay Great Demons at the Spirit Transmutation stage would be a waste, let alone just for a few monsters at the Qi Transformation Stage.

Moreover, as he used these trump cards, his master’s state became weaker and weaker, and he hardly spoke in the past two days.

In the past two days, even when monsters attacked, his master only helped him use the blood escape to flee, no longer using those powerful trump cards.

Aman wasn’t sure whether his master had exhausted his trump cards or was hoarding his strength secretly. All Aman could do was hope for the latter.

These past few days, Aman has already thought about retreating and leaving the Yunfu Mountains, he even didn’t want to know about the perfect body that his master mentioned.

But the monsters in the Yunfu mountains have already sealed off the borders. Several Qi Training Stage auras were sitting among the monsters, and even more monsters were rushing towards the borders. There was absolutely no chance to escape.

Left with no choice, Aman could only move towards the depths of the mountains, but the further he went, the more monsters he encountered.

In these few days, forcibly raising his cultivation for self-defense with the Blood Sacrifice had already caused signs of unstable cultivation, if this continues his foundation might be compromised.

He must find a safe place to rest and completely digest the large amount of essence blood inside his body.

Thinking of this, Aman hides the fierce look on his face and speaks quietly to the ring:

“Master! Master!”

The ring was no longer alternating red and black in color, having become completely red due to the nourishment of a large amount of essence blood, just like a ruby.

After a long silence, an old and tired voice slowly sounds out.

“What’s wrong?”

“We need a safe place to rest, do you know where we can avoid the pursuit of these monsters?”

Kuang Tianjie, who was inside the Blood Sea Ring, fell silent.

In these few days of continuous monster attacks, Kuang Tianjie had been trying to figure out where the problem lied.

After killing the Black Wind Mountain God, he had deliberately cleared the aura at the scene to prevent the monster tribe from tracking him down. To prevent being pursued, he had not chosen to take away the Mountain God Seal as well.

Despite this, the monster tribe still managed to track him down and continuously pursued him for five full days.

At first, he killed the monsters using his trump cards to prevent the news from leaking out. But after several days, the trump cards he had exhausted even pained him to think of it.

Those were treasures capable of slaying powerful beings of higher realms, ensuring that one could regain their peak in the future. Eventually, however, they could only be expended on a handful of monster tribe members at the Qi Transformation Stage.

At present, he only had two trump cards left. If he continued in this manner, being consumed by the monster tribe would only be a matter of time.

By then, Aman would inevitably fail to deceive the monster tribe, and the Blood Sea Ring would be exposed to their eyes.

If it landed in the hands of a Human Clan cultivator, he could use all his learning to bewitch them into the Demon Path, or seize their body with the assistance of the Blood Sea Ring.

However, the monster tribe didn’t buy his tricks and falling into their hands was undoubtedly the worst outcome.

“Perhaps, I should find another way out.” Kuang Tianjie silently mused.

Amidst Aman’s expectant gaze, Kuang Tianjie quietly spread his Divine Sense throughout several kilometers, opening his mouth in a deep voice:

“To the west, there maybe a glimmer of hope six kilometers away.”

Aman’s eyes instantly lit up as he swiftly mobilized the Essence Element within his body and rushed toward the west.

Soon, he saw the glimmer of hope mentioned by Kuang Tianjie, which was indeed two extraordinary-looking youths in long robes, with a cultivation base at the Qi Transformation Stage.

Over the past few days, Aman had also seen some Human Clan cultivators appearing in the Yunfu Mountain Range, but he had not made any contact to avoid exposure.

“Kill them, and use their identities for disguise.” Kuang Tianjie’s voice was bone-chillingly cold.

Seeing this, Aman immediately revealed a cruel smile. Over the past few days, he had killed a number of Qi Transformation Stage cultivators under his master’s guidance, so he was undoubtedly brimming with confidence.

He strode towards the two youths, continually gathering his Essence Element power in his hands.

“You…”

However, in just an instant, a talisman transformed into a flying sword pierced through Aman’s head. Aman, who was sneering just a moment ago, stared wide-eyed, his eyes filled with incredulity.

The Blood Sea Ring in his hand showed no signs of reaction, like a useless mundane object, allowing the talisman to kill him.

Then, a faint purple Spirit Fire fell onto his chest, and his body was suddenly engulfed in flames.

” Is this guy out of his mind? Daring to act like a highway robber at the Essence Refining Peak Stage right in front of the Yunfu Market?”

“Brother Lin’s talisman technique is impressive, truly deserving its reputation in the Talisman Sword Sect.”

“Oh, it’s nothing. Brother He, I’ve heard about your fire technique for a long time. Seeing it today, it really is extraordinary.”

The two youths complimented each other with smiles on their faces, without giving any importance to the killed Aman.

In their view, Aman was just a delusionary cultivator aspiring to be a rogue cultivator, and didn’t deserve their attention.

The Spirit Fire rapidly consumed Aman’s flesh, leaving behind a blood-red ring amidst the ashes.

The previously congratulatory youths abruptly stopped talking, their minds flashing with three big characters.

“Storage Ring!”

The stunning red light circulating on the blood-colored ring made them dizzy with longing, their eyes gradually filled with greed.

The next moment, fire techniques and talismans flew together.

Half an hour later, the youth picked up his talisman sword and hastily threw down a Fire Summoning Technique to burn the corpse. He then quickly picked up the items on the ground and left.

Another hour later, a slow-walking Shen Yuan in a white robe arrived at the scene, his eyebrows slightly raised as he looked at the pile of ashes on the ground.

“Did it switch hosts this way again? It seems the monster tribe I lured out these past few days didn’t fully expose the old monster’s hand hidden in the ring.” With a light wave of his robes, the ashes dispersed into the dense forest.

Then Shen Yuan looked up towards the distance, an array formation shrouding a mountain peak dozens of miles away.

“Who would have thought, after all this meandering, I would end up back in Yunfu Market. Could it be that this place really is destined for me?”
