Why Can't an Earth Grade Supreme Dao Foundation Be Used as a Cargo Truck?

"My mom used to say I was picked up from a trash can too."

Kang Bo's eyes filled with reminiscence. "Adults love lying to children. I think Campus Belle Meng might have been fooled too."

Meng Nanxi stomped her foot, flames nearly bursting from her eyes.

"My grandfather actually dared to lie to me! I have to tell my grandmother about this and let her stand up for me!"

"Were you the ones who discovered and killed Immortal Slaughter Divine Cult members?"

Along with a voice as resounding as a great bell, Jiang Chuan saw a middle-aged man in military uniform and gold-rimmed glasses descend from the sky with Wu Jing and several other teachers from Immortal Gate High School.

"Jiang Chuan, none of you are hurt, right?" Wu Jing asked with concern.

"Teacher Wu, we're fine." Jiang Chuan shook his head.

"That's good. Then tell Liao Yao everything in detail."

Jiang Chuan promptly told Liao Yao everything that had just happened.

From how they discovered the Immortal Slaughter Divine Cult group, to how they learned their identities through lip-reading, and finally how they killed them.

As for dividing the spoils...

Jiang Chuan conveniently skipped over that matter.

"Chu Shengjie truly was a deep and calculating old fox."

Liao Yao sighed. "Not only did he steal the demon beast egg laid by the White Peacock Demon King, he even wiped out its nest."

"But in the end, Jiang Chuan and the others got the bargain," Wu Jing said with a smile.

The many teachers from Immortal Gate High School also revealed envious looks.

Even if an Demon King's nest held few treasures, it was still an enormous fortune to cultivators below the seventh realm.

Liao Yao swept his gaze across the battlefield. Looking at the traces left by the shells and the dead Wild Boar Demonic Beast, his gaze finally landed on Meng Nanxi.

This boar demon was killed by a divine ability. It must have been a life-saving talisman her grandfather gave her...

As he thought, Liao Yao spoke without betraying anything.

"Discovering and killing Immortal Slaughter Divine Cult members is a great merit. I'll request merit for you from above. After two major battles, you've used up quite a bit of your pills and stamina."

"In my capacity as Brigade Commander of the City Defense Army 726th Brigade, I specially approve your immediate return to the position to rest and recuperate. You will continue your mission tomorrow."

As Liao Yao spoke, a pair of purple wings appeared behind him.

Feathers flew from the purple wings and came to the backs of the five of them, turning into slightly smaller pairs of wings.

"You should all be tired too, so I'll use my Dao Foundation Purple Lightning Wings to give you a lift."

"A Dao Foundation can be used by other people?"

Jiang Chuan was rather surprised, then said, "Brigade Commander Liao, wait."

"What? You still want to continue the mission?" A hint of approval appeared in Liao Yao's eyes.

"Can you put your Purple Lightning Wings on that Wild Boar Demonic Beast?" Jiang Chuan asked.

Liao Yao: "..."

"Pfft!"

Wu Jing burst out laughing. "Using Earth Grade Supreme Dao Foundation Purple Lightning Wings to transport a corpse. Jiang Chuan, how did you even come up with that?"

"Kid, I'll remember you!" Liao Yao's face darkened.

Jiang Chuan was the first person ever to use his Dao Foundation as a cargo truck!

Watching the Purple Lightning Wings settle onto the enormous corpse of the Wild Boar Demonic Beast, Jiang Chuan suddenly remembered something.

"Wait a moment."

"Kid, are you done yet?" Liao Yao's face turned livid.

"I'll be done in a moment."

Jiang Chuan immediately picked up his great spear, which the Wild Boar Demonic Beast had split apart with its Blazing Prairie Cleave, along with the beast's two tusks.

After thoroughly cleaning up the battlefield, Liao Yao activated the Purple Lightning Wings. Jiang Chuan's group of five and the corpse of a Wild Boar Demonic Beast slowly rose into the air and flew toward the position.

"So this was what flying felt like? It really was wonderful."

Although Jiang Chuan had flown on airplanes many times, looking at the tiny mountains, rivers, and trees beneath him still felt immensely wondrous.

"Once you cultivate to the fourth realm, you'll be able to experience this wonderful feeling whenever you want." Meng Nanxi tucked her windblown hair behind her ear.

"The fourth realm..."

Thinking of the many Dao Foundation Immortal Sword Vermilion Birds, Meteor Bows, and Bloodthirsty Demonic Trees he had seen during this time, Jiang Chuan increasingly yearned to cultivate to the fourth realm. At the same time, he grew curious about his own Dao Foundation.

"I wonder what kind of Dao Foundation I'll obtain?"

Since they no longer needed to travel mountain roads, Jiang Chuan and the others quickly returned to their position.

After returning, Jiang Chuan went to find Qu Shi to collect the White Cloud Bone Refining Pills and Purple Mist Blood Changing Pills he had purchased with Merit Points. He also took the chance to ask how to reforge a weapon.

"Your alloy weapon is damaged. Just report it to the Quartermaster Department. The military will handle its repair."

As Qu Shi spoke, she took three porcelain bottles from an office desk drawer and handed them to Jiang Chuan.

Jiang Chuan accepted the bottles and continued, "Teacher Qu, I happened to obtain some demon beast tusks and weapon fragments this time. I want to remelt those weapon fragments and forge a new great spear."

"Weapon fragments? Take them out and let me see."

At Qu Shi's words, Jiang Chuan immediately took off his Backpack and began pulling weapon fragments from it, placing them on the ground.

Seeing the weapon remnants spread all across the floor, Qu Shi was somewhat astonished.

"You didn't accidentally stumble into the nest of some sixth-realm demon beast, did you? The jade iron and crystals in these weapons together are enough to refine a magical artifact."

"No. We just happened to intercept the Immortal Slaughter Divine Cult."

Jiang Chuan then told Qu Shi about what they had encountered.

"You little ones have outrageously good luck!"

Qu Shi sighed. "Chu Shengjie feared that fourth-realm cultivators would have auras too strong and alert the White Peacock Demon King, so he sent a group of third-realm cultivators to carry out this mission. In the end, it actually benefited you."

"I'll have someone from the school come later to take these back and use a Standard Earth Fire Furnace to reforge a great spear for you."

After leaving, Jiang Chuan returned to the position where his Combat Team was stationed.

The moment he returned, he saw Kang Bo skinning the Wild Boar Demonic Beast.

Since Jiang Chuan and Song Zhiyan had been primarily responsible for killing the Wild Boar Demonic Beast, everyone agreed that Jiang Chuan would receive the tusks while Song Zhiyan would take its hide.

The Wild Boar Demonic Beast's hide was no less tough than steel. Whether used to make leather armor or draw talismans, it was highly suitable.

Naturally, Song Zhiyan had no interest whatsoever in work like skinning.

So Kang Bo, who wanted a leather vest to strengthen his defense, volunteered to take on the task.

Since, according to the original schedule, Jiang Chuan and the others should still have been carrying out their mission,

the Cookhouse Squad had not prepared food for them. After simply eating an Individual Self-Heating Ration, Jiang Chuan opened the vehicle door, entered the second row of the cab, and began cultivating.

Pulling the stopper from a porcelain bottle, Jiang Chuan poured out a pill the size of a longan.

The longan-sized pill was pure white throughout, like congealed cream.

Breathing in its orchid-like fragrance, Jiang Chuan opened his mouth and swallowed the White Cloud Bone Refining Pill.

At the same time, he circulated his cultivation technique. Two-colored spiritual power rose from his dantian, wrapping around the medicinal power released by the White Cloud Bone Refining Pill.

Like streams of warmth, it enveloped each segment of Jiang Chuan's bones.

As time passed, flecks of Golden Light gradually appeared across his bones, like gold buried beneath the earth revealing its true form.

Once Jiang Chuan had completely absorbed the medicinal power of the White Cloud Bone Refining Pill, every bone in his upper body had turned golden, as if cast from real gold.

Using Divine Sense to examine his own bones, Jiang Chuan's face was full of excitement.

"My physical body's talent truly is terrifying! Once I complete my transformation, my body should become the Golden Body recorded in the Ancient Dao Book!"

"Legend said that the Golden Body was not only indestructibly sturdy, but also possessed many miraculous properties."

As he thought, Jiang Chuan took out another porcelain bottle containing White Cloud Bone Refining Pills, preparing to finish Bone Strengthening in one go.

Knock, knock!

Just then, the sound of someone knocking on the vehicle window rang out.
