Chapter 494: Chapter 214: Holy Spirit Great Perfection! (2)

In the blink of an eye, it had already expanded to a diameter of seven or eight meters, and it was still growing.

Everyone else suddenly changed their expressions.

“Wu Saber!”

The crowd exclaimed.

“Spare… spare me!”

The middle-aged man screamed in terror.

Bang!

After his body swelled to the limit, suddenly, with a loud bang, blood and flesh scattered, broken limbs flew everywhere, and the entire area in front of the cave was filled with the scent of blood.

Jiang Shi remained calm, looked at the other twelve people, and said, “From now on, you are Jiang Shi’s Twelve Eagles. Does anyone have any objections?”

The crowd’s faces turned pale, and their souls trembled slightly in fright.

This monster!

Who exactly is he?

What kind of being have they provoked?

“No, no objections, my lord!”

Elder Pang Ban was the first to react, quickly speaking up.

“Greetings, my lord!”

The others also quickly responded, speaking up.

“Very good.”

Jiang Shi nodded and said, “Since there are no objections, follow me from now on. By the way, my name is Jiang Shi. Let’s go, leave this place.”

He was the first to walk towards the distance.

Daoist Master Xuan turned into a white light once again and surged into Jiang Shi’s ring. The white light flashed and disappeared.

The Eight Great Zodiac Gods sneered, took a deep look at the newly joined Jiang’s Twelve Eagles, and then followed Jiang Shi.

In terms of seniority, they were the first to follow Jiang Shi.

These Jiang’s Twelve Eagles, although powerful, were latecomers, their status and position naturally couldn’t surpass theirs.

A group of people passed through the dense forest, heading swiftly outward.

Along the way, they encountered many other strong individuals who had come to search for treasures in the forest.

When one by one the strong individuals noticed Jiang Shi and his group emerging from the depths of the forest, they were visibly shocked, and pairs of eyes gathered towards them.

“Isn’t that Elder Pang Ban?”

“And Venerable Withered Wood, Xuan Daoist Nun…”

“Why are they coming out? Have they perhaps found the Saint Crystal?”

“These guys never get along and always fight upon meeting, yet today it’s strange, they’re not fighting, and there are many unfamiliar strong figures among them.”

Many furrowed their brows tightly.

“Venerable Withered Wood, have you found the Saint Crystal?”

A master suddenly shouted.

“No!”

Venerable Withered Wood quickly responded, continuing to follow Jiang Shi.

The others frowned even deeper.

Even if they had found it, they probably wouldn’t admit it.

And!

So many people gathering together, there’s definitely something fishy!

Perhaps they really found it a long time ago.

“The Saint Crystal, have you heard any news about it before?”

Jiang Shi asked Venerable Withered Wood and the others while walking.

“Your lordship, we only know that the Saint Crystal fell in this area, but we don’t know exactly where it landed. The last time it emitted light was about ten days ago.”

Venerable Withered Wood quickly responded.

“The last time it emitted light?”

Jiang Shi asked.

“Yes, after falling, the Saint Crystal emitted mysterious light several times at night, but unfortunately, after we gathered here, it hasn’t emitted it again.”

Venerable Withered Wood said.

“Oh? So, it’s really nearby.”

Jiang Shi pondered for a moment, then said, “Let’s wait here for a few days and see if it emits light again.”

This thing, since I encountered it, mustn’t be missed.

Blood Pill, Nirvana, Entering the Saint Realm!

These are the three subsequent stages!

A single Blood Pill has already driven countless people to madness.

Subsequent Nirvana is even more profound!

And Entering the Saint Realm is regarded as the pinnacle of existence, akin to an exalted deity, throughout history, only one saint emerges every few thousand years.

Who wouldn’t want to transcend and enter the Saint Realm?

The people around him cupped their fists in agreement.

Next, they found a dilapidated temple nearby and began to rest there.

Time passed day by day.

In the blink of an eye, it was another three days or so.

Jiang Shi kept his eyes on the surroundings, his brow tightly furrowed.

For three consecutive days, there were increasing figures in the forest, with strong presences appearing every day, but that mysterious light never appeared again.

“Mr. Jiang, the Saint Crystal seems not to be something that can be found just by looking for it, it has self-awareness and will actively avoid people, and it will choose a new master by itself.”

The voice of Daoist Master Xuan suddenly resounded in Jiang Shi’s mind once more.

“Actively avoiding people? Automatically choosing its master?”

Jiang Shi asked.

“Yes, I just happened to think of this as well.”

Daoist Master Xuan’s bitter laughter rang out, “There are too few records about the secrets of Saints in this world, almost like a rarity. I happened to have obtained a Jade Scroll back in the day that recorded something similar.”

“So even if we search here, it would be difficult to find it?”

Jiang Shi asked.

“Yes.”

Daoist Master Xuan responded.

Jiang Shi instantly fell silent, and after a moment, he spoke, “Since that’s the case, there’s no need to stay here. Let’s go.”

He directly stood up and walked toward the outside of the dilapidated temple.

But just at this moment!

Suddenly!

A dazzling glow shot up into the sky from a distance, emitting a powerful and vast wave, sweeping in all directions.

Everyone, including Jiang Shi, immediately looked up, their pupils contracting.

“Saint Crystal.”

Venerable Withered Wood, Elder Pang Ban, and others first exclaimed.

Whoosh!

Without a second thought, Jiang Shi stepped forward, his body already swiftly darting away.

The people around him quickly followed suit.

At the same time, others in the forest began to move into action, each rushing with utmost speed toward the brilliant light pillar.

But as quickly as the pillar appeared, it vanished even quicker.

It had almost immediately retracted, leaving no trace.

Jiang Shi moved at lightning speed, darting through the air like instant teleportation, the wind whistling past his ears.

In the blink of an eye, he did not know how many miles he had covered.

Finally!

His body came to a halt, looking towards the forest ahead.

The light pillar had completely disappeared, leaving no trace.

Suddenly, Jiang Shi activated his Insight Talent, countless fine runes surfaced deep within his eyes, transforming them into two scanning eyes, looking in all directions.

Then he leaped forward again, beginning to meticulously search using his Insight Talent.

Everyone around had alert expressions, closely watching their surroundings.

The sound of the wind howled in the forest as more strong cultivators arrived, all trying their best to search.

More than half an hour passed in the blink of an eye.

The area within a few dozen miles had been thoroughly searched by Jiang Shi, yet he still couldn’t find the source of the light pillar.

Just as he furrowed his brow, deep in thought.

Suddenly, his eyes flickered, noticing a few familiar figures in another direction in the forest. Startled, as if in disbelief, he swiftly moved toward that direction.

···

A secluded mountain forest path.

Zhao Houcai, Zhao Feiyan, and Shangguan Yun were apprehensive, riding on three different fine horses, moving slowly forward.

Zhao Feiyan’s face was ghastly pale, sweat the size of beans continuously rolled down her forehead. Filled with anxiety, she covered her stomach, looking at Zhao Houcai.

“Dad, is my stomach going to be okay? Am I going to die? I don’t want to die!”

“Shut up!”

Zhao Houcai reprimanded sternly, his face turning ashen with anger, “Wretched child, you eat anything; you’re driving this old man mad!”

“Master, don’t scold Junior Sister anymore, she already knows she’s wrong.”

Shangguan Yun said with a bitter smile.

“Dad, I didn’t expect that thing to automatically crawl into my throat, and now it’s over, I can’t even throw it up.”

Zhao Feiyan said with a bitter expression, looking at Shangguan Yun, “Senior Brother, if I’m going to die, do you still love me?”

“Junior Sister, what nonsense are you talking about?”

Shangguan Yun said helplessly, “It’s just that your stomach is glowing, how could you die?”

“But I feel it moving!”

Zhao Feiyan covered her stomach, looking down, “Plus, my stomach seems to be getting bigger, do you think I’m pregnant?”

“Wretched child, what nonsense are you talking about?”

Zhao Houcai was furious.

If she could get pregnant, whose responsibility would that be?

Wouldn’t his old face be completely lost?

“Alright, stop talking. There’s something strange in this forest; there are powerful practitioners moving all around. Don’t provoke them.”

Zhao Houcai’s expression changed, looking up.

For some reason, a vague unease suddenly gripped his heart.

He always felt that something big was about to happen.

In the past, every time he had this feeling, something would undoubtedly go wrong.

And now it was happening again…

“Quickly, let’s go.”

Zhao Houcai urged his daughter and disciple.

“Is that Throat-lock Hand Elder Zhao ahead?”

Suddenly, a clear, delighted shout came unexpectedly from behind, startling Zhao Houcai, Zhao Feiyan, and Shangguan Yun so much their bodies shuddered, and their hair stood on end.

This voice…

Isn’t it too familiar!!
