Free Web NovelChapter 463: Chapter 2: Tier Three Body Refining
Under the heavy veil of mist, even Li Ji’an’s Divine Sense couldn’t penetrate, causing him to be on high alert, already contemplating survival tactics.
However, upon hearing Wu Weixiong’s voice, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
It wasn’t because he was relying on an old acquaintance, but because he had practiced the Divine Treasure Body Refining Technique, cultivated by Wu Weixiong, and knew the weak points of his physique.
At least if it came down to a fight, Wu Weixiong couldn’t suppress him with his body cultivation strength.
Moreover, although Wu Weixiong had reached Core Formation, it was merely a Fake Pill. In terms of magical power and aura, he was similar to his past life, and though he was currently only at Foundation Establishment Perfection in this life, he didn’t feel the typical powerlessness of a Foundation Establishment cultivator against a Fake Pill True Man.
Furthermore, his cultivation technique was known for its robustness and longevity. In a real fight, Wu Weixiong’s Fake Pill would find it hard to quickly defeat him.
Of course, the most crucial point was that he had his previous life’s Tier Three spirit talisman, Tier Three poison, and trump cards like Gugu and Little Fire Spirit.
At the worst, escaping from Wu Weixiong wouldn’t be a problem.
"So it’s Fellow Daoist Wu, a pleasure to meet you!" Master Meng’s face changed slightly upon hearing.
Ziyang Zhenren was one of the four Sect Guardian Dharma Kings of the Shadowless Sect, with Fake Pill cultivation, and was especially skilled at Insect Control Skill. His strength was not to be underestimated.
"Enough with the nonsense, the Sect Leader has ordered that the Shadowless Sect does not wish to conflict with the Business Alliance. That’s why I’m just using the Chaos Heaven Vessel to trap the Spiritual Ship. Otherwise, if the Chaos Heaven Vessel was fully unleashed, you know the consequences!" Wu Weixiong remained aggressive and overbearing.
Upon hearing the words ’Chaos Heaven Vessel,’ Master Meng’s face darkened once more.
The Shadowless Sect was determined this time!
The Chaos Heaven Vessel was the treasure of the Shadowless Sect, rumored to have once been a Spiritual Treasure.
Although the Sect Leader of the Shadowless Sect discovered it when it was already broken and without an Artifact Spirit, its power was estimated to be no more than a tenth of its prime, but still comparable to at least a Middle Three Grades magical treasure.
The Protective Array of the Spiritual Ship, though capable of blocking a True Pill, was not to withstand an assault from the Chaos Heaven Vessel.
And one of the main divine abilities of the Chaos Heaven Vessel was the Chaos Mist, which was said to be able to affect a True Monarch’s Primordial Spirit.
Thus, in the current situation, the other side held the dominant position.
"True Man Wu, could I have a word with you?" Master Meng contemplated for a moment, attempting to communicate through sound.
Wu Weixiong was unabashed, still speaking openly: "I have always been open and straightforward, speak your mind, no need to beat around the bush!"
Master Meng’s eyelids twitched; dealing with such a straightforward person left him helpless.
He had no choice but to say awkwardly, "True Man Wu, our Business Alliance values reputation greatly. This time, we indeed made a promise to the other party. Could you perhaps show some leniency? I believe the esteemed person would also be willing to spend some spiritual talent to resolve this."
Merchants have always been accustomed to using spiritual talent to solve problems, which usually works.
But this time, they hit a brick wall.
"Don’t come at me with that. Once I capture them, everything is mine! Open the array quickly!" Wu Weixiong was not swayed by this.
Master Meng showed embarrassment, but ultimately could only step aside with resignation to open the array.
After all, the Business Alliance’s rules state, besides trading spiritual talent, members must not interfere in any battle scene without discretion.
This time, the Spiritual Ship was bringing people from the Celestial Cyan Domain back to the Ten Thousand Merchants Domain, which was already a private action taken by him and several other commerce associations; if nothing went wrong, it’d be fine, but if something did, they’d face severe consequences!
Moreover, the Shadowless Sect asked first and fought later, targeting old enemies; he couldn’t set the entire Business Alliance against them.
Most importantly, it wasn’t worth it.
Based on the intelligence he had accessed, he speculated that the True Monarch of Ten Thousand Laws had most likely perished.
And as for Master Chunyuan, known as the Pill King, even if he found out later that he failed to protect the entrusted person, he most likely wouldn’t have a chance to come after them.
As for reputation?
It’s worthless in the face of profits!
"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!" With Master Meng’s decision, Wu Weixiong led a group of people who swiftly flew out of the mist, instantly surrounding the Spiritual Ship.
Moments later, upon Master Meng’s signal, the members of the Commerce Association did not obstruct, allowing the people of the Shadowless Sect onto the Spiritual Ship.
This time, several commerce associations illegally brought nearly two hundred cultivators from the Celestial Cyan Domain onto the Spiritual Ship. Besides Li Ji’an and two others, as well as Sima Yu and his companions, most were in the lower ship cabins.
"Hmph! Whose identity token is this? Qingmen Sect Inner Sect Disciple... Tsk tsk, realizing your identity is a hot potato now?"
"Stop pretending, your Li Yang Purple Flame Magical Power is too obvious. Why not surrender now?"
"Hahaha, justice has eyes, bringing you beast in front of me, I will tear you to pieces!" freewebnσvel.cøm
...
"Fellow Daoist, spare my life, Fellow Daoist, spare my life, I already left the sect, I am willing to join the Shadowless Sect, I will pledge fealty!"
"Misunderstanding, it’s truly a misunderstanding, I’m not a sect disciple."
"Senior, spare my life, I am merely a small family runaway cultivator from Dao Source State, absolutely no collusion with the Demon Palace or Evil Sect!"
...
In an instant, the lower ship cabin was chaotic.
There was the joy of those claiming merit, the despairing pleas for life, and the final struggles of trapped beasts. freewebnσvel.cøm
Soon, Wu Weixiong’s subordinates brought people to the second level.
The second-level cabins were the residences of the commerce association leaders, though some refugee cultivators had upgraded with spiritual talent, so nearly twenty people were there at this moment.
This cleansing, Li Ji’an’s Divine Sense had completely perceived.
It was clear that the Shadowless Sect had irreconcilable conflicts with the ruling classes within the Celestial Cyan Domain.
Confrontation involved life-and-death brutality upon meeting.
However, for those in the Celestial Cyan Domain not affiliated with the Holy Palace Sect, the Shadowless Sect did not make it difficult, merely extorting some spiritual talent before letting go.
Finally, Wu Weixiong brought his capable men to the top level.
"Sister Guo, you..." Unable to maintain the pretense any longer, Yao Rui worriedly spoke up.
