Chapter 308: Chapter 259: Demon Sect (Part 2)

Xiang Wuji’s eyes held no anger or resentment, only thoughts of the future.

The tiger falls to the plains and is bullied by dogs, but it’s just an experience in life.

“The market is nearby, but over there is a group of tribulation cultivator’s companions… trying to enter poses some risk…”

“If there are no spirit medicines, I can still recover my cultivation, but the recovery speed would be extremely slow. By then, if my aura is discovered by other cultivators, I’d undoubtedly face even greater danger without protective measures…”

“Currently, my aura is merely that of a mortal, inconspicuous, which is undoubtedly the lowest-risk option…”

“What a pity…”

Sitting beneath a large tree at the edge, Xiang Wuji felt the Wood King Heart in his chest begin to slowly beat, absorbing the vitality qi from the tree behind him.

Suddenly, there was a slight commotion from afar.

A caravan slowly approached…

“Miss, there’s a beggar by the roadside up ahead, seems like he’s about to die…”

A clear, melodious voice sounded.

Then, a cold voice followed.

“Shui’er, give him some food and medicine, and also leave him some clothing.”

“Oh my, miss, you’re truly kind-hearted.”

Xiang Wuji looked up in a bit of a daze.

A rather luxurious carriage, driven by two horses of exceptional bloodlines, draped in some silk, and the carriage itself exquisitely crafted.

Two groups of knights escorted it, and though the coachman seemed unremarkable, Xiang Wuji immediately recognized him as a Qi Refining Perfection cultivator.

A little maid jumped out of the carriage, carrying a bag of food, medicine, and a set of coarse cloth clothes.

Looking at the carriage, as the little maid jumped down, the curtain did not lift, revealing only a faint blue silhouette, cold, graceful, holding a scroll.

“In this direction…” a glint flashed in Xiang Wuji’s eyes.

Then he collapsed on the ground, breathing weakly, as if in a coma.

This caravan had an extraordinary aura, certainly not a mundane wealthy family, but probably a caravan from a cultivation family, very likely heading towards the market.

Since that was the case, Xiang Wuji naturally wouldn’t miss this opportunity.

As for deception? Survival comes first.

“Miss, miss, he seems to be dead!” the little maid exclaimed loudly.

One of the knights couldn’t bear watching anymore and said, “He’s just fainted, seems the injuries are too severe.”

“Miss, such beggars are everywhere, there’s no need to bother, we should head to Ti Yu Market now.”

“Just a mortal…”

The knight’s words were interrupted.

“Enough, if I hadn’t noticed, I wouldn’t bother. Since I’ve seen him, it’s fate, might as well lend a hand.”

“Bring him up.”

“Miss, just a mere beggar, how can we…”

The coachman interjected, “Put him in the back carriage, since the miss has spoken, you should refrain from speaking further.”

Xiang Wuji now entered a deep sleep, seemingly as though unconscious.

…

In the Demon Blood Heart Palace.

“What exactly revived me…”

Lady Yu pondered briefly, then shook her head.

“A Nascent Soul Cultivator, even a casual strike is something a Foundation Establishment cultivator can’t withstand…”

“As for physique, I can’t think of which it might be that has such an effect.”

“I think it was likely some powerful being passing by and saving you.”

Zhu Ling nodded, saying, “That’s exactly what I thought.”

“However… I can sense, birds, beasts, even the Demon Race feel a closeness towards me…”

“Could it be Demon Race bloodline?”

“Demon Race bloodline… At this point, it’s best to think about how to recover.”

“Recover? Isn’t that simple, the woman outside, dual cultivate with her, you’ll recover and even breakthrough…”

“Such a superior Furnace Body Physique…”

“Hmph, I, Xiang Wuji, will not stoop to being a Stealing Fragrance Thief.”

“Dual cultivating is not a bad thing; forget it, you might not dual cultivate now, but you can use it when facing a bottleneck later.”

……

[You successfully blended into a caravan, using them to enter the market.]

[You took the chance to escape.]

[At the market’s Thousand Classics Tower, you sold a demonic cultivation technique from Zhu Ling at a low price, exchanging it directly for the pills you needed.]

[From then on, you frequently sold cultivation techniques, exchanging them for recovery resources.]

[Demonic cultivation techniques were not rejected here, as this place falls within the Danyang Cultivation Realm, where demonic and righteous ways are equally matched.]

[You utilized the Selfless Concealment Technique, releasing and concealing your aura.]

[You stayed at an inn, recovering for over two months.]

[On the third day of the first month, year 11,361 of the Changtian Calendar, you successfully recovered ninety-five percent of your cultivation.]

[The first thing you did after fully recovering was peel and draw tendons from the group of tribulation cultivators that injured you, hanging their skins on the tallest tree outside the market, and the Foundation Establishment cultivators behind them met their end at your hands.]

[You then went into the forest, gifting the Spirit Deer, which had shared its spiritual wisdom with you, a type of Enlightenment Spirit Beast pill, allowing it to unlock its bloodline and step onto the Demon Cultivation Path.]

[You returned to the riverbank, gifting mundane gold and silver as a mundane nobleman, ensuring a comfortable life without attracting malice.]

[When you sought the caravan that brought you to the market, no trace of them was found.]

[Returning to Ti Yu Market, you replicated your strategy from the Minghuang Cultivation Realm.]

[However, Ti Yu Market is slightly more formidable than Minghuang Market, and with your current cultivation, you could only become a hidden shareholder of a magical artifact store.]

……

[In the year 11,363 of the Changtian Calendar, your cultivation was completely restored, and you’ve gathered enough resources while gaining profound understanding of your surroundings.]

The Qianluo Dynasty is not a Mortal Dynasty but a rather powerful Cultivation Dynasty.

In the entire Danyang Cultivation Realm, it holds a certain status.

This dynasty is backed by a Golden Core Master, representing a Golden Core Influence.

Within the dynasty, three Golden Core Sects allied with the Qianluo Dynasty, all taking a neutral stance between demonic and righteous paths.

However, next to the Qianluo Dynasty lies a Demonic Sect.

The Blood Demon Sect.

A powerful demonic sect also presided over by a Golden Core Master, possessing a Golden Core Peak Master, along with three Golden Core mid-stage masters.

This is a formidable force comparable to Everlasting Sect Peak Pavilion.

The few families within the Qianluo Dynasty combined may not be without threat from neighboring forces.

[You left Ti Yu Market, but after days of searching, you couldn’t find any trace of the caravan that saved your life, nor who they sought in the market.]

[You began heading east, towards the Blood Demon Sect.]

[That same year in September, you arrived at the Blood Demon Sect’s Mountain Gate.]

The entrance of the Blood Demon Sect was large, slightly chilly, with a faint scent of blood emanating from within.

It could never compare to the grandeur of Everlasting Sect’s Mountain Gate.

Yet in Everlasting Sect, the Blood Demon Sect would be just one of one hundred eight pavilions, and even with its subordinate Cultivation Dynasty, it lacks even one percent of Everlasting Sect’s power.

However, the Blood Demon Sect is considered a second-rate force within the Danyang Cultivation Realm.

“Who goes there?”

“Why have you come to our Blood Demon Sect’s Mountain Gate?”

The disciple guarding the entrance was not pressing or in poor spirits, merely appraising Xiang Wuji and speaking slowly.

Xiang Wuji’s aura surged, exposing his Foundation Establishment aura.

“Call your elder.”

“What brings the friend here?”

Before finishing the sentence, a Foundation Establishment Elder came from within the Mountain Gate.

“I am Linglin Wanderer from Ti Yu Market, struggling with the lack of cultivation path, and have come to join the sect…”
