Chapter 518 -317: Heavenly Mountain! Sinful Cultivator!_2
Because according to the villagers, Heavenly Mountain strictly forbade anyone from cultivating and probably had all the cultivation resources firmly in their grasp.
He desperately needed these resources.
One reason was that once his Spiritual Power was full, he could break through to the long-stalled Seventh Rank.
And secondly… time was of the essence.
After being pulled into that Spiritual Space, the power of the Evil God became even more violently unstable, and the effects of the World Tree Withered Leaf were now completely insufficient. Without Spiritual Energy to counteract it, he would be in great danger.
Furthermore…
Su Qi squinted his eyes, recalling all that had transpired in the mechanical world.
Why say that the true form of the Demon Eye was an acquaintance? Because it displayed “Watcher of Demon Town.”
If it corresponded to the first instance world he encountered, then there indeed was a guy who had been crouching at the entrance of the town.
He was an accomplice of the town’s Killing Demon, tasked with guarding the entrance and was the only Killing Demon Su Qi hadn’t killed.
Well.
Although it sounded a bit like defying the very laws of heaven, it was indeed the truth, because at the time, Su Qi didn’t have time to take him out since the phantom of the Evil God had already appeared, and he was forcefully removed from the instance amidst life and death.
“Now it seems that he has become a Demon Eye Demon and seems to be following some will, contacting ancient worlds’ evil forces, trading, setting up demonic rituals…”
Sirius was one of them; it had been contacted half a year ago and had since sided with them. And Su Qi believed that the connected worlds and entities were definitely not limited to Sirius alone.
It seemed as if they were gathering strength or perhaps plotting some dark scheme that was building momentum.
In any case.
Time was crucial, and that burst of eruption from the Dark Zone was the last… Next, the core of the Dark Zone would likely be completely open.
The prologue had passed, and all sorts of dangers were about to begin!
Su Qi had to make haste and plan accordingly before it erupted.
“Still, it’s odd.”
Su Qi paused, realizing he had always overlooked one thing… how such a small town could have set up a ritual connected to the Evil God.
“Click!”
Someone pushed the door open; it was the black-haired Martial Artist from before. He came over to Su Qi with plain, simple food.
Su Qi paused, “I recognize this, it’s ‘en route’ meal.”
The Martial Artist was startled for a moment, then sighed softly, “Sorry, we’re just ordinary villagers struggling at the bottom. We can’t offer much help, young man. Though there’s not much meat, it’s already quite a good meal for us.”
Su Qi said, “I have a question, what happens to Sinful Cultivators when they are taken by Heavenly Mountain?”
The Martial Artist puzzled, “You, being a Sinful Cultivator… asking me…”
Still, he began to explain.
The fate of Sinful Cultivators only had two outcomes: either they spend their lives in hiding from the terrifying Strength of Heavenly Mountain or they get caught…
And then executed in front of all under heaven to demonstrate the Immortal’s might.
To be honest.
This world was indeed a very simple and primitive world of immortals, but all the cultivation resources were monopolized by the ruling elite at Heavenly Mountain.
The rest were all Sinful Cultivators.
“Young man, I will untie your ropes so you can eat, but I must keep the door tightly locked; there’s no other way out…”
After waiting for the Martial Artist to leave, Su Qi looked at the meal in front of him and pondered, “It seems that although they are named ‘sinners,’ Sinful Cultivators are still respected by the lower classes.”
Although countless feared the name of Heavenly Mountain, after confirming that he was not a Demon, but a Sinful Cultivator.
Even if the Immortals of Heavenly Mountain had already received the news, there were still hints of them silently suggesting letting him leave, and even prepared food.
“And furthermore…”
Su Qi used his chopsticks to move aside the food and found a key.
“Is this big brother too honest and direct…? He made it so obvious, clearly intending to let me go.”
Su Qi showed a slight smile, “Plus, from the sounds of it… most villagers have already returned to their houses, and there’s no one wandering around the village. Even that Martial Artist took a path that avoided the exit.”
In other words.
“The so-called Sinful Cultivators… have a high reputation among the common people at the bottom, currently seen as the main resistance force against the harsh and strict rule of Heavenly Mountain.”
He had not even stepped out of the village yet, and he already had a clear analysis of this world.
However.
Su Qi didn’t pick up the key but started eating the food instead.
He couldn’t leave.
The so-called Immortals of Heavenly Mountain weren’t fools. They discreetly took the initiative to let him go, though covertly…
Su Qi looked at the key in the food, well… it wasn’t so covert, after all.
But,
he couldn’t possibly deceive the so-called “Immortals” of Heavenly Mountain, because he had felt a prying sensation that had begun to transmit from a distant place since just a moment ago.
Only, his high-intensity spiritual power had captured it.
If he were to leave, the traces here could not be concealed from the high and mighty “Immortals”; to them, an ordinary person in a small village might as well be an ant that could be crushed at will.
Furthermore,
Su Qi had no intention of leaving. The two Immortals of Heavenly Mountain were actively searching for the “Heavenly Descendant”, and this terminology was already quite strange, seemingly not an issue that arose for the first time.
And if so many villagers knew about it, that indicated… the Sinful Cultivator must also undoubtedly be aware of everything.
He chose to wait right here, anticipating the arrival of both parties.
He would not step outside.
Su Qi had already come to understand quite a bit about this world, and he was also flipping Spirit Coins in his hand to recover his Spiritual Power.
The speed was not fast, roughly a thousand Spiritual Power in ten minutes.
To recover to the level of a million would require… over one hundred eighty hours, roughly eight days.
“Suitable for cultivation to increase the upper limit of Spiritual Power, it’s slow but easy to control.”
“But for recovery, it’s still a bit lacking… often requiring other ceremonies, Tools, Potions, etc., to speed up recovery.”
Naturally, Su Qi couldn’t possibly wait here for eight days, he would make a breakthrough and then find a way to approach Heavenly Mountain and leave this place.
He always liked to multitask.
Moreover,
Su Qi had already sensed…
“A powerful energy entity is approaching.”
And it was not small in magnitude.
Rumbling!
Lights flickered in the Sky Dome, and two powerful Sword Qi streaks tore through the air with a harsh friction noise overhead.
A flash of light with a cold gleam appeared!
Two white-robed Immortals… standing on Flying Swords, watched the scene below from within the Sky Dome.
“Is it here?”
“The divination indicates the location is right here.”
“And…”
“I’ve already sensed energy fluctuations in that room.”
“It seems the Heavenly Descendant Demon is still here.”
The two figures descended to the ground, and at this moment, the villagers were naturally alarmed by the quick arrival of the Immortals, their faces filled with fear.
They all came out of their houses one by one and knelt on the ground.
“We have seen the Immortals!”
The village head, an old sack of bones, also tremblingly let go of his walking stick and knelt down, burying his head into the ground.
The two Immortals looked on calmly at the scene of everyone kneeling, speaking indifferently, “You’ve done well to capture the Heavenly Descendant Demon without letting it escape.”
“But you are also quite lucky, for Heavenly Descendant Demons generally arrive with severe injuries or restrictions; otherwise, you would all die at its hands.”
People listened to the aloof self-talk of the two high-up Immortals, not daring to move.
“Furthermore, the words of a Demon cannot be trusted, every sentence is bewitched; no matter what it says, you should act as if you never heard, or else you’ll be possessed by evil and eventually die a terrible death.”
The villagers responded with a trembling voice, “Understood.” ƒгeewёbnovel.com
And Su Qi understood as well.
“Heavenly Descendant Demon… refers to outsiders from other worlds, perhaps?”
He slightly raised his eyebrows.
This was indeed good news; it implied there was contact with the outside world, although the common folk were unaware.
With such words… they intimidated the people.
In the next moment, they looked down indifferently too, and although there was no movement from below, they were not worried; for every Heavenly Descendant Demon that arrived in their world.
Without exception… either had their strength exhausted or were severely injured.
Therefore,
they would always capture it at the very first opportunity!
One of them took out an Ancient Bowl, their voice cold,
“Demon! Now you will be suppressed by us of Heavenly Mountain!”
