Chapter 202: Foundation Pellet

After hearing what the Peng King had to say about the Flag of Ten Thousand Spirits, Fang Xing believed this flag was a cruel torture. He never expected this old guy to suddenly change the topic and actively request entering the Flag of Ten Thousand Spirits as well!

The Peng King seemed to be a little embarrassed and explained, In fact, moving into the Flag of Ten Thousand Spirits is also a good method for me to form in the outside realm. The reason we beast clans hated that Flag of Ten Thousand Spirits is because of the human cultivator; he massacred the powerhouses of our beast clans and crafted it through such forceful methods, enslaving and imprisoning the souls and spirits to torture them. Since I am willing to enter the flag willingly, there is no need for shackles of any sort. Not only would I be able to help you fend off enemies, but I would also be able to return to your Sea of Consciousness, all at your command!

After hearing this, Fang Xing understood the deeper purpose behind all of this and looked to the Peng King with a sneer. I was wondering why youd make it sound all mysterious or something like this. You simply want to help yourself find another chance at Spirit Possession, right?

The Peng King showed a shy smile when Fang Xing revealed exactly what hed been thinking. You cant really have me stay inside your Sea of Consciousness forever, right? he began, nearly begging. I can promise you that for three yearsuh, nofor ten years, Ill focus on being the main spirit of your Flag of Ten Thousand Spirits and wont casually possess anyone. Even if there is a good target, and even if I do decide to possess them, I will only do so after consulting with you. What do you say?

You old turtle egg of a bastard, youre sly as hell. To prevent you from leaving me in times of danger, let us sign a contract first!

The Peng King was slightly surprised by the suggestion, but he quickly agreed. No problem!

The Peng King wasnt concerned with something like having a contract or not. Inside Fang Xings Sea of Consciousness, the boy had the power to beat or scold him whenever he felt like it, and something like pride wasnt a factor anymore. If the boy wanted to force him into signing a contract, it was as simple as a mere commandif he wanted to live, hed have to sign. The fact the boy was willing to accept his requests was already a surprise on its own.

The boy and the Peng bird soon completed their contract, and the Peng Kingin high spiritsbegan teaching Fang Xing how to craft the Flag of Ten Thousand Spirits. Just as they were discussing with hushed tones, however, the soft sound of plucked strings could be heard from afar. The musical notes were incredibly peculiar while containing a great luring power, and whenever somebody heard it, it was as though the notes were being aimed right at the listeners heart. It caused the listener to fall into the music and nearly lose their own consciousness while compelling them to make their way to the musics source.

Boy, what happened to you? The Peng King yelled into Fang Xings ears with surprise.

Fang Xing was perplexed at first, but alarm soon returned and he gave a deep scowl. That harlot has quite some methods.

It was obvious that Ye Guyin was the source of the music. It seemed to be some manner of spell trying to control Fang Xing from afar, and as the music drew closer, its powers over the mind became ever stronger, like a giant hand trying to tug someone down into a deep sweet dream.

Aware of its dangers, Fang Xing shielded his own heart and mind to defend against the musical notes. His foundation was incredibly solid and hed gone through plenty of fights both open and in secret while growing up in a bandits nesthis will was incredibly strong. Aside from the first moment where hed been caught off guard, it would be difficult for these notes to control him.

The music didnt last for long, and it soon slowly faded away in the distance. Ye Guyin didnt know where Fang Xing was, she had simply been playing her zither while walking, hoping to catch him unaware and control him along the way. By the looks of it, this woman had been left with no other choice and had settled on a last resort.

Using music to control the soul, thats not easy at all. Kid, youve got an enemy here? The Peng King wasnt affected at all. As a True Spirit of a former Golden Core Stage beast, his cultivation level was considerably higher than Ye Guyins.

Its a woman without shame. Her own battle prowess is nothing to be scared of, she just has a high-quality Ancient weapon that she uses. See all of these? They were all caused by her! Fang Xing showed the Peng King all of the teeth marks on his chest and arms before angrily continuing, She is just a crazy bi*ch. Us being in this damned place is also because of her; dont you think shes hateful? As he spoke, it was as though hed forgotten he was the one whod taken the first bite.

Damn, damn, that sort of harlot is indeed hateful, the Peng Kinga Golden Core Stage beast kingloudly cursed, following along with Fang Xings words like a top-class boot-licker.

Once this Flag of Ten Thousand Spirits is finished, do you think itll be enough to fight against her high-quality Ancient weapon?

The Peng Kings brows creased at this. The Flag of Ten Thousand Spirits has a total of ten thousand beast spirit seals, and thats when its considered a high-quality Divine weapon. Three thousand beast spirits makes it a low-quality Divine weapon. Right now, weve only got three hundred or so here, so itd be considered a mid-quality Ancient weapon at most.

Sh*t, thats not even as strong as that womans instrument? Fang Xing was a bit disappointed. The reason hed been so proactive in crafting this flag was because he wanted to use it against Ye Guyins Phoenix-Fear Zither.

How would a Divine weapon be so easy to craft? Collecting materials alone would take who knows how many years. Take this Flag of Ten Thousand Spirits for example, if it wasnt because I gathered so many seals for you, you wouldnt be able to make anything. You go and count this, this is a total of two hundred Foundation Stage seals plus a further hundred Golden Core Stage seals. If you tried to collect them yourself, how long would it take for you to achieve this amount?

Fang Xing sighed. Fine, I guess youre right. It should still be enough to just get by.

The Peng King was left speechless at just how greedy this boy was. By now, however, it wasnt really Fang Xing who wanted to craft the flag, but the Peng King himself. Hed finally managed to move the boy, after all, and this might be the only chance he hadnot only to live, but to regain his freedom.

Kid, do you have any good tool embryos?

In response to the question, Fang Xing took out all seven or eight storage sacks and poured them out on the ground at once. This actually left the Peng King rather astonished; he was a Golden Core Stage beast king and didnt even flinch at the quality of the trash in front of him, but how was this mere Spirit Stage boy able to get so many spirit tools? It was even enough to open up a shop. Regardless, he just shook his head, stopped trying to figure out how this had happened, and began to pick through the pile.

As the Peng King was rooting through his stuff, Fang Xing suddenly remembered the storage bag hed stolen from Ye Guyin, and he couldnt help but to giggle when he thought of how she had to be looking all over this place for him while naked. He took out Ye Guyins storage sack and opened it to see if there was anything good inside, only to be left dumbstruck with a bit of drool beginning to drip down.

That bi*ch is f*cking rich.

Although Ye Guyin had only a single storage sacknot even comparable in quantity to his over half a dozenFang Xing found that the wealth she had was perhaps not any lower than his. First, the space of her storage sack was large to begin with at about three times the area his contained, showing it was obviously a high-quality one. The treasures inside werent bad, either; there was plenty of good stuff with an extraordinary number of high-quality Spirit Stonesnearly a hundred piecesas well as two Flying Swords of supreme quality. There were also some medicinal and rejuvenation pellets, and as for what was in that purple bottle.

Fang Xing unplugged the bottles lid and took a sniff. He immediately jumped up in surprise before looking inside, his voice shaking as he said, Foundation Pellet?

The Peng King whod been immersed in trying to find a suitable tool embryo jumped as well before he turned and asked, What Foundation Pellet?

Fang Xing pointed at the purple bottle in his hand and stuttered, This this woman actually has a Foundation Pellet.

Just a Foundation Pellet; theres no need to be that excited, right? the Peng King muttered before turning back to continue his search for a tool embryo.

It had been several hundreds of years since The Peng King had broken into the Foundation Stage; something like a Foundation Pellet just didnt interest him anymore. For Fang Xing, however, it was not so simple. It left him so excited he was having difficulties just controlling himself. He would have never imaginedeverthat there would be a Foundation Pellet inside this womans storage sack!

F*ck, this harlot is so rich she just carries her Foundation Pellet around while casually strolling all over the world? What a profit; this is a f*ckton of profit!

He was originally worried that he wouldnt be able to find himself a Foundation Pellet even after reaching full mastery of Spirit Stage. He hadnt expected someone to just drop it in his hands.

Of course, what he didnt know was that while he was in a state of excitement, Ye Guyin was currently in a state of panic while frantically searching for him. When she thought of how her storage sack had fallen into her hands, Ye Guyin felt only regret. By now, she was even beginning to regret so casually chasing after and trying to kill this little demon in the first place.

When the Fuyao Palace arrived in the Chufung Kingdom, they first went to the Melodic Ice Palace. There, they gifted a Foundation Pellet with a seventy percent success rate, which later led to the events at the Qing-Yun Sect when they were given the same opportunity. The first Foundation Pellet that had started it all had landed in Ye Guyins hands, and the only reason she hadnt used it was because of the words of her shifu.

Ye Guyins shifu had told her that due to a slight instability in her current base, even if she were to break into the Foundation Stage, it would still be difficult for her to form the golden foundation. Ye Guyin was a very prideful person; she was determined to form the legendary golden foundation to be more powerful than anyone on the same level, and her esteemed shifus words caused her to hesitate.

She hadnt used the Foundation Pellet immediately and instead brought it with her during her journey away from the Melodic Ice Palace to pick up her little shimei from the Myriad Beasts Sect. Shed hoped to come across an opportunity to bring her Qi into a purer form along the way, and the reason shed so desperately wanted to capture Fang Xing was also because she felt he had some sort of secrets on himsecrets shed be able to find out once hed been captured.

Ye Guyin hadnt anticipated that in a huge turn of events, she and this brat would both fall into this strange and indescribable place where not even the light of day would shine. From there, her storage sack was also taken by the brat, including the Foundation Pellet shed kept with her. Anxious and regretful, she didnt hold back any Qi while trying to use her zither to lure the brat out, yet even after wandering this prison for so long while playing, he still hadnt appeared.

Bastard. I I will definitely kill you. After walking for such a long time, Ye Guyin could only clench her teeth and curse while tears drew down her cheeks.

Within a hidden stone cell, Fang Xing was laughing so much his mouth couldnt even close. Im going to break into Foundation Stage! he excitedly declared to the Peng King. Finding this Foundation Pellet was truly an unexpected surprise. Just as he was worrying about how he had no way to win against that crazy woman, the opportunity presented itself right in front of him! If he was successful in breaking through, he was certain he could suppress that woman even if she had a high-quality Ancient weapon in her hands.
