Killing God - Chapter 180

Chapter 180 Waiting
A person couldn’t be revived after death, let alone a stranger who didn’t even know his name. Thus, although he sighed in his heart that “good people” didn’t live long, Shen Shi, who had seen many lives in the Demon Realm in the past, quickly forgot about that tall rogue cultivator.

On this day, On the originally calm Silvermoon Lake, Many battles broke out in succession. The two original local cultivation sects of Broken Moon City, Black Wind Hall, and Fish Dragon Sect, fought with each other. Many innocent rogue cultivators who were gathering herbs and hunting beasts in Silvermoon Lake were implicated. What was even more surprising was that the always arrogant Profound Sword Sect had also brazenly attacked and sent out their experts to participate in the battle.

The strength of a great sect, Of course, the Black Wind Hall was not comparable to a small sect like the Fish Dragon Sect. So after the first few scuffles, The Black Sword Sect disciples quickly subdued everyone. The scene was frightening, No one dared to move or fish in troubled waters, As these battles took place, the reason for this spread throughout Duanyue City and beyond. Most of the rumors were that someone from the Fish Dragon Sect had found a treasure in Silvermoon Lake by chance. However, there were different opinions as to what this treasure was.

Some people said that an ancient immortal weapon had appeared, and its power was incomparably shocking. Some people said that there was a cub of a high-grade spirit beast there. Once it was captured and raised, its future achievements would be unimaginable. Some people even said that there were actually so many strange things. It was the Silvermoon Lake that was rich in all kinds of spirit herbs. For some reason, a high-grade spirit herb with at least four or five grades had grown out. It could already be considered a heavenly treasure, and naturally attracted countless cultivators to compete for it.

In short, there was no universally acknowledged explanation for what this treasure was. However, practically all cultivators in the cultivation world had always been eager for such legendary rare treasures, including the treasures of ancient cultivators, legacies, immortals, and treasures.

A lucky chance coincided with great fortune, Naturally, he would be able to leap over the dragon gate and ascend to the sky Saving countless years of arduous and even painful cultivation, Ordinary disciples were unknown. The legend of an adventure that would shake the world was the most popular legend in the human cultivation world, no matter what era it was. Especially for the large number of loose cultivators who were at the bottom of the cultivation world, it was their dream.

There was no other way. People had to have dreams to live, right? The road ahead was very difficult. It was always good to have such a slim fantasy.

Perhaps everyone had such unrealistic but beautiful dreams when they were young. Shen Shi was naturally no exception. When he was young, because he had read many books, he even dreamed of more kinds of adventures than ordinary children. However, those were all pure childhood hopes. Even though he was still young, he was no longer daydreaming.

All he remembered was what his father, who had been missing for many years, had told him: He was not a genius, there would always be people stronger than him, and all he could do was cultivate harder.

Regarding the rumors about the treasure, Shen Shi also heard something in the following period of time. Thinking back, Shen Shi guessed in his heart that this treasure that everyone was discussing but did not know its roots was most likely on the Fish Dragon Sect’s Sect Leader he saw. However, the Mysterious Sword Sect that followed him, including Nangong Ying, who was obviously at a higher cultivation level, was present. It was likely that no matter how precious that treasure was, the Fish Dragon Sect’s Sect Leader would most likely not be able to preserve it.

Heavenly materials and earthly treasures, are there any virtuous people who dwell in them?

Shen Shi definitely didn’t believe this kind of deceitful words.

In the next few days, there were still a few more battles in Silvermoon Lake, but the scale was much smaller than before, because the Mysterious Sword Sect seemed to have stopped after a single strike from the lightning. However, because the Fish Dragon Sect had obtained the treasures that day and wanted to hide them privately, the main target of the Black Sword Sect’s attack that day was also them. The difference in strength between the two sides was really huge. After this battle, the Fish Dragon Sect’s Yuan Qi was greatly injured. It was said that apart from the sect leader escaping with the treasures, more than half of the disciples in the sect were seriously injured by the Black Sword Sect.

Now that the Mysterious Sword Sect had withdrawn, the disciples of the sect had also withdrawn from Silvermoon Lake. It was unknown if they had found the treasure, which attracted countless speculations. However, the real reason was naturally only known by the Mysterious Sword Sect itself.

And here at Silvermoon Lake, The battles that followed in the next two to three days were practically between the Black Wind Hall and the Fish Dragon Sect disciples. In the past, the two sects were evenly matched and they barely maintained some respect for each other. Now that the Fish Dragon Sect had lost the upper hand, the Black Wind Hall was the first to jump out and hit them. Moreover, it was resolutely vicious, and it was even more victorious than Xuanjian Sect.

These local Cultivation Sects of Broken Moon City had been scheming against each other, Shen Shi also heard that he had seen some. However, it had nothing to do with him, Plus, he didn’t have much desire for the unknown treasure in his heart. Therefore, he still stayed at Silvermoon Lake for three days according to his original plan. In any case, as long as he paid attention to the battle between the two sects, there wouldn’t be much of an obstacle. Shen Shi only left for the city after seeing that it was almost the day when the people from the High Firmament Sect arrived.

④

A few days passed, Returning to Shen Shi in Duanyue City, The atmosphere in the city quickly changed. Although there were still a large number of cultivators coming and going, it was obvious that some disciples were much smaller. Occasionally, one or two people dressed in Black Sword Sect disciple costumes walked into the streets. The cultivators beside them looked at each other with reverence.

The Fish Dragon Sect had almost been completely defeated. The remaining Black Wind Hall had also changed its previous appearance of faintly not dealing with Xuanjian Sect. It had long since pasted itself on Xuanjian Sect to show its goodwill and pretended to be a subordinate. It seemed that the battle at Silvermoon Lake and Xuanjian Sect’s lightning strike had already intimidated the entire city.

It seems that not long from now, Broken Moon City will probably become a private territory of the Mysterious Sword Sect.

A thought flashed through Shen Shi’s mind. He walked through the bustling streets. Not far away, the high-rise buildings of the Divine Immortal Society branch stood there like a herd of chickens. Shen Shi hesitated for a moment, then looked at the surrounding shops. After pondering for a moment, he decided to go to the Divine Immortal Society.

During the past few days in Silvermoon Lake, because of the talent that Little Hei pig had unexpectedly displayed in searching for spiritual herbs, Shen Shi’s Ruyi bag had a lot more spiritual herbs. Of course, there was also a price. The only difference was that the original spirit crystals were four less, and they were all given to Little Hei pig to eat according to a daily ration of one.

The speed at which spirit crystals were consumed was much faster than that of ordinary cultivators. Not to mention being much faster than Qi Refining Realm cultivators, even compared to Origin Condensation Realm cultivators, they weren’t much weaker or even faster. However, after Shen Shi calculated the harvest, the value of the spirit herbs that the Little Hei pigs found was still too much.

The Divine Immortal Society had a great reputation. There were all sorts of spirit materials. At the same time, there was also a special counter for purchasing spirit materials from many cultivators. However, just like all the merchants in the world, it was expensive when selling goods and cheap when buying them back.

Shen Shi’s Ruyi bag contained almost twenty different kinds of spirit herbs. Most of them were ordinary Tier 1 spirit herbs. However, there were exceptions. Two of them were valuable Tier 2 spirit herbs. One was the White Rose Root, and the other was the “Black sandalwood Root” that Little Hei pig found by the Silvermoon Lake.

After Shen Shi thought about it, he sold all the Tier 1 spirit herbs at the purchase counter in the lobby of the Divine Immortal Association. Only two Tier 2 spirit herbs remained. Since then, Tier 2 spirit herbs were valuable and useful. When it came to Tier 2 spirit herbs, they could often be used as the main ingredients for all kinds of pill formulas. It was a pity to sell them so casually. If Fang Zheng returned to Lingxiao Sect in the future, he might still be able to use these two kinds of spiritual herbs.

When this thought crossed his mind, Shen Shi suddenly recalled Zhong Qinglu. Three years ago, she was still a girl in Qingyu Island. She had some talent in pill concocting. He had reached that agreement with her in private. Now that he suddenly remembered it, it was really funny, with a hint of naivety.

If at that time, no matter who had a darker heart, would they be able to easily trick the other party?

I wonder what kind of situation Zhong Qinglu is in now after these three years. Logically speaking, she should have already cultivated to the Origin Condensation Realm. Besides, without her own spirit crystals to support her in the pill refining process, would she be delayed in the future?

Thinking of Zhong Qinglu, Shen Shi couldn’t help but think of Zhong Qingzhu. Then, it was Sun You, He Xiaomei, and so on. He even discovered that he still remembered the little fatty Hou Sheng who had a conflict with him the day he entered the sect. Only then did he realize that he had actually engraved his memories of Qingyu Island’s days in his heart.

For a moment, he was stunned. It was only after the waiter called him a few times at the other end of the counter that Shen Shi suddenly woke up. He was embarrassed and embarrassed for a moment, but he continued to do this.

In the end, he sold out all the spirit herbs in his Ruyi bag, leaving behind only two Tier 2 spirit herbs. He exchanged them for dozens of spirit crystals. Adding on the remaining ones from before, he secretly counted them and found a total of 46 spirit crystals.

With money in his pocket, He didn’t panic in his heart. This sentence made sense. Although there were not many spirit crystals left to speak of, Shen Shi still felt much more at ease. In the next few days, he took a deep breath and focused on his surroundings. Then, he walked out of the branch of the Divine Immortal Association and headed towards the relatively secluded Three Springs Pavilion in front of him.

The ten-day period agreed upon by the people from the High Firmament Sect should have arrived today.

Shen Shi walked all the way. Although he felt that everything around him was normal and no one paid special attention to him, he couldn’t help but feel a little nervous. He could only hope that everything would go smoothly. He didn’t need any side effects to return to the High Firmament Sect.

Everything seemed to be as he thought. When he walked to the Three Springs Pavilion, the surroundings were still calm, and nothing unusual happened.

The Three Springs Restaurant was a restaurant. At this time, it was morning. The door opened, and figures flashed inside. Although it wasn’t the bustling bustle of customers, there were still two or three tables of customers chatting.

Everything seemed to be normal. Shen Shi took a deep breath and calmed himself down. He then lifted his foot and walked in.

However, he had only taken two or three steps into the building. Just now, when he was looking for a place to sit and wait for the people from the High Firmament Sect to arrive, he suddenly saw four people sitting on a square table near the window. Three men and one woman were sitting there. It was none other than Geng Cheng, Ding He, Fu Jun and Nangong Ying of the Black Sword Sect.

Shen Shi’s heart skipped a beat. He almost subconsciously wanted to turn around and walk away. However, before he could react, Nangong Ying, who was sitting on the table, seemed to have been paying attention to the entrance of the restaurant. She saw him the moment Shen Shi walked in. She stood up and waved at Shen Shi, saying,

“Senior Brother Shen, we’ve been waiting for you for a long time. Please come over.”
