Cultivation: From Servant to Revered Immortal

Chapter 398: Chapter 7: Learning the Truth!

Poof!

Just like piercing a balloon,

the tip of the knife entered from the forehead and exited from the back of the head!

The man instantly awoke, his eyes widening, staring fiercely at Zhou Xun, and then his vision went dark, no longer making any sound!

Middle-Stage Core Formation Cultivator, deceased!

But it wasn’t over yet. Zhou Xun patted his Storage Bag, and a three-foot-long pitch-black Small Banner appeared in his hand!

Immediately afterwards, Zhou Xun formed a hand seal, a ray of Spirit Light touched the Banner Face, and a thumb-sized hole appeared as Cyan Light surged,

the Cyan Light flashed upon landing on the ground, transforming into a human-sized monkey,

it was precisely Zhou Xun’s other Spirit Beast—the Soul-Devouring Beast Cyan Ape!

As soon as the Cyan Ape appeared, its large nose twitched, and it looked at the man’s corpse, showing excitement!

It then looked at Zhou Xun,

seeing Zhou Xun nodded slightly, the Cyan Ape’s eyes lit up!

”Roar roar!”

It excitedly called out a few times and then forcefully pounded its nose with both fists,

and then a gray misty light spread out, wrapping around the man’s body, after a moment, a phantom human silhouette appeared,

and in the gray light, quickly drawn into the Cyan Ape’s nose, vanishing!

The Cyan Ape contentedly patted its belly and uttered several sounds to Zhou Xun while looking towards the distant elder!

Without the man’s Mana supporting it, the fiery red great knife instantly reverted to its original form, shrinking to the size of a foot, and fell from the air!

Then it was lifted by a force and sent to Zhou Xun, put into his Storage Bag.

Apart from this, the golden flame that had been contending with the Blood Demon Child instantly was defeated, reducing to a thumb-sized golden flame, enveloped by the Blood Demon Child’s blood light, suspended among them!

Seeing this, Zhou Xun was surprised!

He had thought this fire was a Secret Technique cultivated by the man!

Now it seemed that it was a Heaven and Earth Spirit Fire!

In a heartbeat, he formed a hand seal with one hand, pointed to the Thunder Seed, dozens of tiny Thunder Arcs flew out, enveloping the Spirit Fire layer by layer, finally transforming into a fist-sized blue Thunder Pearl!

Zhou Xun also took out a Jade Box, placed the Thunder Pearl inside, and then took out a Sealing Spirit Talisman, attached it on,

with a wave of his finger, the Jade Box transformed into Spirit Light, flying into the Storage Bag.

Then he scooped off the man’s Storage Bag from his waist and attached it to his own, while storing the man’s corpse into the Storage Bag.

Having done all this, Zhou Xun turned his gaze to the elder on the other side,

meeting the elder’s terrified gaze head-on!

Earlier, Zhou Xun cleanly and efficiently killed the man, and the scene of absorbing the Divine Soul with an Exotic Beast, fell into the elder’s eyes!

In terms of strength, the man was several grades stronger than him,

yet under Zhou Xun’s hand, he couldn’t withstand a few moves before dying on the spot, his soul absorbed, depriving any chance for reincarnation,

let alone being entangled by Zhou Xun’s Spirit Beast!

At that moment, Zhou Xun flashed and appeared in front of him,

the five Blood Demon Children also gathered around, surrounding them!

Seeing this scene, the elder’s complexion turned pale, and with a face full of fear, he said with a trembling voice:

”Dao...Daoist friend, I have been blind, please...please forgive me!”

Zhou Xun heard this, his expression indifferent as he glanced at him, and asked:

”I have never known you two before, why did you come here to murder me?”

Upon hearing this, the elder opened his mouth, taking a long time before making a sound, pleading:

”If...if I reveal the truth, can you spare my life...”

Before finishing his sentence, seeing Zhou Xun frown, he hurriedly spoke:

”It was Daoist Zhu, it was Daoist Zhu who plotted this, he learned from Wind and Cloud Tower that Daoist friend is the chosen reward of the True Monarch of Profound Control...”

”You mentioned Wind and Cloud Tower, and there’s a bounty?” Zhou Xun interrupted him.

”Yes, yes, it’s Wind and Cloud Tower!” Speaking of this, the elder couldn’t help gnashing his teeth,

the information from Wind and Cloud Tower was nowhere near accurate, with this person’s combat strength, how could he possibly be an Early-Stage Core Formation Cultivator, clearly being Late-Stage Core Formation to have such might,

no wonder he became greedy, being able to escape alive from the hands of True Monarch Nascent Soul, couldn’t possibly be ordinary!

”Daoist friend possesses great Divine Techniques, even able to escape aggression from the True Monarch of Profound Control, understandably earning the True Monarch’s ire, he placed a bounty of five million Spirit Stones for Daoist friend in our Song and Zheng Countries,”

”Daoist Zhu was enthralled, spending two hundred thousand Spirit Stones in Wind and Cloud Tower to buy intelligence on Daoist friend,”

”Earlier, when Daoist friend purchased the solution to the Blood Magic at Wind and Cloud Tower, naturally exposed his whereabouts, then Daoist Zhu...was planning to capture Daoist friend and exchange...exchange for the bounty!”

The elder’s voice was shaky as he revealed the entire truth!

Zhou Xun slightly frowned, immediately understanding!

’So it was Wind and Cloud Tower, never expected after doing business with me, they would turn around and sell my information, such an organization trading in intelligence, truly without any virtue!’

”I will keep this in mind for now, but one day there will be a hefty repayment...”

”And the True Monarch of Profound Control, there will definitely be a confrontation in the future!”

Zhou Xun’s eyes were cold,

causing the elder in front of him to tremble in fright!

”Dao...Daoist friend!”

The elder forced a smile, eyes filled with plea, begging Zhou Xun for mercy!

”Since you chose to murder me, you should have the awareness to be killed, although considering you spoke truthfully, I allow you to take your own life,”

”Let your soul reincarnate!”

Zhou Xun said coldly, indifferently.

This person dared to kill him, naturally, there was no chance of letting him go!

Upon hearing this, the elder’s face turned pale, his eyes darkened, he had personally witnessed Zhou Xun’s combat strength, not to mention there was the Earth Element Beast,

and these five Corpse Refinements no less than Late-Stage Core Formation,

even if he wanted to escape, there was no chance!

”Real...really can’t spare me? I’m willing to serve you loyally...”

”Are you sure you want me to do it myself?” Zhou Xun said indifferently, interrupting the elder’s speech!

At this moment, the Cyan Ape on the side also anxiously made a few sounds, then gestured towards the elder, a dribble of saliva trickled from its mouth!

Seeing this, the elder was startled, instantly understanding Zhou Xun’s meaning.

If he did it himself, his soul might lose the chance for reincarnation!

”Old...Old me...willing...to take my own life, to...to make amends with Daoist friend!” The elder seemed to use all his strength to say those words.

Then he sat cross-legged, eyes tightly closed!

Mana surged around, a three-inch-long wooden thorn appeared out of thin air, suspended above the elder’s head for a moment,

then pierced straight down!

”Poof!”

The wooden thorn penetrated through the Baihui acupoint, into the elder’s skull,

the elder’s head tilted, instantly lifeless!

Zhou Xun waved his hand, collected the spoils of war, lightly leapt onto the back of the Earth Element Beast, and continued flying towards Luoyuan Immortal City.

Seated on the wide back of the Earth Element Beast, Zhou Xun took out the Storage Bags of the two men just now, beginning to tally his gains!

This was his first time killing a Core Formation cultivator from the Central Continent Cultivation Realm, perfect to see the wealth of cultivators here!
