“Alright, I’ll listen to you!”

Su Xing nodded slightly, quickly contacted Lu Yuanwu, informed him of their position, and then, alongside Luo Shuying, found a cave to crawl into.

Afterwards, Su Xing began eagerly sorting through the loot from the ambush of Damned Zong.

A small blood-red flag, upon which a complex character for “soul” was faintly visible, though the flag itself was already damaged.

Channeling spiritual power, Su Xing probed the flag through the air, then turned to the Primordial Spirit of Damned Zong and barked,

“Old dog, what’s this thing for?”

Intimidated by the Li Fire Technique in Su Xing’s hand, Damned Zong could only reply sullenly,

“This is the Soul Summoning Banner, an exquisite magic artifact. It can devour human souls, boost Divine Sense, and also assist in the cultivation of the Divine Skill, Dark Sha Hand…”

Upon hearing this, Su Xing raised an eyebrow. No wonder he felt a profound sense of resentment emanating from the flag. It must have devoured many souls in the hands of Damned Zong…

Su Xing then inquired, “What is this Dark Sha Hand?”

With a hum, Damned Zong explained, “My previous left hand was cultivated with the Dark Sha Hand Divine Skill. It could devour others’ spiritual energy and transform it into sha energy, a minor Divine Skill…”

Having heard this, Su Xing immediately understood. This thing was the dark energy that had previously caused him great trouble, capable of incessantly eroding spiritual energy, much like a bone-piercing maggot—indeed difficult to deal with!

Su Xing then took out the bone sword that Damned Zong had previously wielded, which was the only intact magic artifact the old man had left, and asked,

“And what’s the story with this sword?”

Damned Zong hesitated upon hearing the question and then said,

“This is the Bone Sword, a mid-grade treasure…”

Upon hearing this, Su Xing raised an eyebrow and asked, “Bone?”

With a heh-heh, Damned Zong replied, “It’s forged from human spinal columns. By condensing one thousand two hundred and ninety-six spinal columns, one can forge this Bone Sword…”

Su Xing took a sharp breath upon hearing this, the origins of this bone sword were shockingly chilling…

Su Xing felt an inexplicable chill and tossed the bone sword aside.

He then continued to inquire about each damaged magic artifact’s functions from Damned Zong.

From half a purple elixir, to a tattered talisman… to a fragment of a spirit jade and so on…

Regrettably, these magic artifacts had all been destroyed by Damned Zong, and even though they were not entirely damaged, Su Xing couldn’t use them now.

What chilled Su Xing was that most of these artifacts had chilling origins, with even more sinister effects.

Just as Su Xing had thought, Damned Zong truly was a heretical cultivator!

Su Xing then took out the Jade Slip that recorded the “Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique” and gave it a quick perusal.

This Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique was divided into an upper and a lower section. The upper section could divine the fortunes of a land, a country, a world—requiring the support of supreme cultivation levels. Su Xing figured that with his current strength, it would be almost impossible for him to cultivate the upper section.

The lower section, however, divined one’s personal fortunes, helping one to seek advantages and avoid disasters. Daily divinations could reveal personal safety and subtly enhance one’s fortunes.

This secret technique obviously looked a lot more ordinary, but was extremely difficult to cultivate, often requiring hundreds of years to master.

“What a pity, the most critical part, the cultivation method for the lower section, was erased before…”

With a sigh, Su Xing then asked Damned Zong,

“This lower section’s method, recite it to me!”

Upon hearing Su Xing’s demand, Damned Zong chuckled slyly and said,

“Fellow Daoist, I’m not foolish… This Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique is the most precious technique I possess. If I tell you, will this old man still have a way to survive?”

“Why not let me return to the Descending Sect, and once I’ve reconstructed my body, I’ll write down this secret technique for you without missing a word?”

Su Xing sneered upon hearing Damned Zong’s words, the old dog sure had wishful thinking.

Merely with words, did he expect Su Xing to spare him?

To reconstruct his body and later write down the secret technique for Su Xing?

It was more likely that by then, Damned Zong would bring the forces of the Descending Sect to Su Xing’s doorstep!

Seeing that Su Xing remained unmoved, Damned Zong continued,

“Fellow Daoist, aren’t we all just seeking opportunities? You can take the wealth… why must you take a life? There aren’t many cultivators in this world. For us to have met, it must be a significant fate!”

After hearing this, Su Xing remained silent, but then suddenly asked,

“Oh? Not many cultivators? Have you met other cultivators?”

Damned Zong chuckled grimly,

“Although since the Great Extinction of heaven and earth, the Spiritual Energy scattered and cultivators nearly perished… there are still a few old monsters around… scattered throughout the various worlds…”

“Speaking of which, from which world do you hail, fellow Daoist?”

This Damned Zong, with only his Primordial Spirit remaining and his life in Su Xing’s hands, still exhibited an air of brazen confidence and even started making idle conversation with Su Xing.

Su Xing did not answer but suddenly asked,

“What about the other cultivators, like the Dragon Protector?”

Damned Zong was momentarily stunned before responding with a forced smile,

“That old Dragon does have impressive strength, and he’s guarding the treasury. Let me tell you, there are many treasures in his treasury. You and this Shadow Protector could completely rob him…”

Halfway through hearing this, Su Xing interrupted and said at last,

“Do you have anything else you wish to say?”

Damned Zong quickly replied, “Of course, it’s the deal I mentioned to you before. I swear on my Divine Soul of the Great Dao…”

Before Damned Zong could finish, Su Xing interrupted directly.

“Since you have nothing else to say, then go to hell!”

With those words, Su Xing activated the Li Fire Technique in his hand, instantly annihilating Damned Zong’s Primordial Spirit.

As he faced death, Damned Zong couldn’t understand why Su Xing would kill him so decisively. Didn’t Su Xing want the Eight Trigrams Fortune-Telling Technique?

It never occurred to him that Su Xing had plenty of opportunities to obtain this secret technique.

In this simulation, Damned Zong had destroyed the secret technique, but when Su Xing grew strong enough, Damned Zong probably wouldn’t even have the ability to destroy it.

Moreover, the secret technique as narrated by Damned Zong might not even be accurate. If there were any tricks within the technique, Su Xing would be troubled.

So it was better not to seek the secret technique and simply settle the matter by killing Damned Zong. He could wait for the simulation to obtain a complete Jade Slip and learn it later.

“This time, what’s most important is the seed of the Snow Valley Jade Ginseng!”

Su Xing’s mind stirred, and he took out another complete Storage Ring, which contained a small bag of ice-blue seeds—the seeds of the Snow Valley Jade Ginseng!

Seeing the seeds intact, Su Xing breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as he got this bag of seeds, Su Xing would not be far from breaking through to the Divinity Transformation Stage!

“Having found the Snow Bone Jade Ginseng, the cultivation of the Three-tailed Phoenix Grass is underway… The medicinal ingredients needed for the Infant Tempering Pill have all been gathered. Next, I just need to refine them, successfully form a perfect Nascent Soul, and break through to Divinity Transformation!”

Thinking this, Su Xing’s heart surged with excitement!

Once the perfect Nascent Soul was formed, and he broke into the Divinity Transformation Stage, Su Xing could say he was one step closer to becoming an immortal!

“Besides the seeds of the Snow Bone Jade Ginseng, there are also quite a few of Damned Zong’s diaries!”

Su Xing saw the stack of thick diaries in the Storage Ring, which could probably stack up to ten meters high, and was momentarily at a loss for words.

“Dammit, this old dog has lived for a thousand years. He didn’t write in his diary every day, did he?”

For a moment, Su Xing found it hard to imagine that Damned Zong, a great cultivator of the Divinity Transformation Stage, could have such a hobby.

Skimming through a few of the diaries, Su Xing was shocked by Damned Zong’s past actions.

“Xianwu Era 2376, tending to the farm, I chanced upon an old immortal and thus entered the path of immortality!”

“Xianwu Era 2398, finally broke through Foundation Establishment, the hope of longevity blooms… went to the neighboring mountaintop to find Flower Fairy, and chatted for a long time.”

“Xianwu Era 2434, reached Great Perfection in Foundation Establishment, went seeking an opportunity to break into the Golden Core Stage before leaving, unexpectedly found her in the arms of my second senior brother. Rage took over my heart, so I poisoned them, took their treasures, and defected from the sect.”

“Xianwu Era 2436, fleeing for my life…”

“Xianwu Era 2439, broke into the Golden Core Stage, have been hunted for decades, are they truly relentless spirits?”

“Xianwu Era 2448, fleeing for my life…”

“Xianwu Era 2513, forged a rank six Golden Core, the hope of longevity blooms!”

“Xianwu Era 2673, fleeing for my life…”

“Xianwu Era 2712, entered the city to buy alcohol, chanced upon a charming woman, heart yearned for her, so I slew her husband, killed her father, and indulged for seven days.”

“Xianwu Era 2732, entered a frontier town, fortuitously acquired the Black Fiend Palm secret technique, the heavens aid me! Subsequently I slaughtered the town, forged the supreme quality Magic Artifact, the Soul Summoning Banner, and mastered the Divine Skill of the Black Fiend Palm!”

Su Xing took in a sharp breath of cold air.

“Dammit, this Damned Zong is really not simple… Seems like after being cuckolded by Flower Fairy, he completely set upon a dark path!”
