Chapter 219: Chapter 217: Destiny-Breaking Eye
Not everyone possessed a Secret Technique for seeing through destiny.
It just so happened that he, the Grand Elder, did.
And he had been watching as Ji Qianqiu’s fortune steadily declined.
No matter how the Ten Thousand Tribulations Sacred Land developed now...
...in the end, the nature of the Ten Thousand Tribulations Sacred Land had never changed.
The Demon Dao.
It was, after all, a Demonic Sect.
Throughout the entire Sacred Land, from top to bottom, who hadn’t practiced the secret techniques of the Demon Dao?
Who didn’t harbor some sinister thoughts?
...
...
「Profound Bright Islands.」
Ever since the last disturbance ended, the Zhengxuan Sect had sent someone again.
Once again, it was Shangguan Muling acting as the Zhengxuan Sect’s representative, standing guard here and skimming some profit on the side.
It was just a source of income for the Zhengxuan Sect’s disciples in the Foundation Establishment Realm.
"Young Master, I’ve already tempered my Magical Power for the tenth time." Luo Xingya walked out, grinning.
She had grown even more graceful and elegant. Her eyes, in particular, radiated a seductive charm, even without her having practiced any Charm Skills.
The phrase "both sensual and pure" was the perfect description for her.
After cultivating, this girl had grown a whole head taller.
She was almost as tall as Su Qing now.
Standing at nearly six feet tall.
It was simply outrageous.
"Mm, keep it up. Temper it as many times as you can."
"If you can’t temper it anymore within half a year, then prepare for your breakthrough."
’Why hasn’t she reached Perfection yet?’
Su Qing found it very strange. Logically, she had already tempered her Magical Power ten times.
How could Luo Xingya not have reached Perfection? She possessed the Wind and Thunder Immortal Body.
Su Qing hadn’t detected the slightest sign of it.
"Xingya, what’s going on with your Cultivation Technique? Haven’t you felt that your cultivation is reaching Perfection yet?" Su Qing asked.
Luo Xingya shook her head.
"Young Master, I feel like I still need to cultivate for a while longer before I can reach Perfection."
"Alright then. I just thought that since you cultivate so fast, your technique should be reaching Perfection by now," Su Qing said helplessly, reaching out to pat the girl’s head.
It still felt nice.
"Young Master, I’m all grown up now," Luo Xingya said to Su Qing, thoroughly enjoying the feeling of his hand on her head.
By saying this, she was hinting that she wanted Su Qing to...
"There’s no rush. Xingya, we can talk about it after you’ve cultivated your technique to Perfection."
"Right, your Young Master wants a good meal tonight. Go buy some Spiritual Pork," Su Qing said.
Then he lay back down in his chair.
Another year passed in a daze. Throughout this year, Su Qing had acted normally, rested normally, and socialized normally.
Who would have guessed that this Master Le was actually a Great Demon from the Immortal Realm?
Everyone only knew that the only place Su Qing had appeared this year was in this sea region.
Everyone wanted to know where Su Qing really was.
’The Immortal Realm...’
’Who wouldn’t want it?’
But Su Qing preferred to stay hidden.
In truth, he just hadn’t had a chance to go out and stir up some trouble.
Suddenly, Su Qing couldn’t help but frown.
He took out Xiaoqing.
"Xiaoqing, what’s wrong?"
"Master, my friend is about to take form. Can she come out?"
"Taken form?" Su Qing hadn’t paid attention for a long time.
As it turned out, one of the inhabitants, a White Fox, had taken form.
It had transformed into a charming, stunning beauty.
Right now... she had no clothes on.
Putting it mildly, her figure was truly amazing.
"Coming out is not an option. Both of them need to understand that once they go in, they can’t come out unless I permit it." Although she was amazing to look at, Su Qing still wouldn’t let them out.
This was because they had both witnessed Su Qing’s treasure trove.
It was filled with Spirit Medicines and Spirit Plants that Su Qing had grown using Immortal Techniques.
Su Qing hadn’t expected the White Fox to have actually cultivated to the Second Realm.
’She’s got some talent.’ But the little Yellow Dog was not doing as well.
Its aptitude was a bit low.
"Then can you give my friend some clothes, Master?" Xiaoqing pleaded.
Su Qing chuckled. "What’s so hard about that? It’s just clothes."
Su Qing gave a few sets of Luo Xingya’s clothes to Xiaoqing.
"Later, I’ll put some silkworms inside. You guys shouldn’t lack for silk fabric then." After glancing at his Great World, Su Qing stuffed Xiaoqing back inside.
....
"Young Master, I’m back." Luo Xingya came in carrying the ingredients.
She was very happy.
But Su Qing furrowed his brow and looked behind Luo Xingya.
"Xingya, you go inside first. Someone’s here."
"Okay, Young Master." Luo Xingya obediently ran to the kitchen.
Su Qing walked outside and said calmly, "Friend, may I ask why you are following my Maid?"
Sure enough, a Foundation Establishment High Tier Cultivator appeared from around the corner of Su Qing’s wall.
But something felt strange.
"Such sharp awareness, Master Le." A Cultivator in a Black Cloak emerged from the corner.
He walked out and approached Su Qing.
"What is it?"
Su Qing asked, puzzled. ’Who is this person in the Black Cloak? He’s clearly not from Profound Bright Island, and he doesn’t look like anyone I know.’
"I would like to purchase Master Le’s Maid. Is that possible?"
"If that’s what this is about, then please leave." Su Qing moved to shut the door, showing him out.
But as soon as the other party heard this, seven fine needles flew out from under his Black Cloak.
They were all Magical Treasures.
Moreover, the man wasn’t just at the Foundation Establishment level.
He was a Golden Core.
The speed of the Magical Treasures revealed that this was definitely not the speed a Foundation Establishment Cultivator could achieve.
This guy was hiding his true strength.
’Spear of the Soul.’
Su Qing didn’t want to cause a huge commotion.
He directly used a Soul Killing Technique to dispatch the man.
In front of Su Qing, his Magical Power stopped the seven needle-shaped Magical Artifacts.
The Spear of the Soul had already struck its target.
"How interesting. A Golden Core Realm cultivator appearing on such a tiny island," Su Qing chuckled softly.
He took the man’s intact corpse.
He placed it into his Acupoint World to loot later.
’Let’s see what he has.’
’And why on earth would this guy want to buy my Maid?’
’Try courtesy before resorting to force, was it?’
’So stupid.’
’Stupid no matter how you look at it. On these Profound Bright Islands, as long as my little Maid leaves the island, I can sense it.’
Even if someone managed to abduct Luo Xingya, Su Qing would know.
’The girl’s really grown up. She’s even attracting Golden Core Realm cultivators now.’
After closing the door, Su Qing watched the smoke from the kitchen slowly rise into the sky.
He couldn’t help but shake his head and smile.
Then he sat down in his lounge chair and began to examine the Golden Core’s corpse.
"No Pocket World. What a weakling!"
The only valuable thing on his entire body was the Storage Ring.
After letting his Devouring Divine Techniques absorb the corpse, Su Qing picked up the Storage Ring to inspect it.
"Destiny-Breaking Eye?" The first thing Su Qing noticed was a secret manual.
It was a physical book.
It looked very old.
Su Qing took it out and began to read.
He read it using his photographic memory.
In one minute, he was finished.
[Destiny-Breaking Eye: By channeling both one’s Magical Power and destiny, one can temporarily open the Destiny-Breaking Eye to see through another’s luck. Note: This technique heavily consumes one’s own destiny.]
"..."
"I guess the name isn’t wrong. ’Destiny-Breaking’... it breaks your own destiny to see someone else’s," Su Qing laughed.
’Does that mean that guy saw my little Maid’s great fortune, and his own luck ran out?’
’And that’s why he was taken out by a single Spear of the Soul from me.’
’What a poor bastard.’
Su Qing thought for a moment. ’I might as well have the girl cultivate Hidden Dragon No Luck, too.’
’Otherwise, it’ll be a hassle if trouble keeps showing up.’
