"Ah!"

The Qi Bing' pitiful howls echoed across the fields.

The Zhan Shen Saber is specifically designed to target the wandering Primordial Spirit.

At this moment, he was terrified, his soul trembled, and he roared with a ferocious expression.

This is an injury to the Primordial Spirit, which is more terrifying and harder to bear than an injury to the physical body.

The first time his Primordial Spirit was severed, he was already in unbearable pain. Now, being severed again, he could no longer endure it. He rolled into the sea in agony, howling horribly as he went mad.

The Qi Bing had lost their previous elegance and looked quite miserable.

As Ling Chen watched this scene, his mouth went dry, his heart pounded, and he even felt a lingering fear.

Although he thought the mysterious Daoist brother should be able to defeat Qi Bing and his companion, he did not expect him to win so decisively, and the Primordial Spirit Golden Saber that he displayed was even more chilling.

Through the agonizing cries of his old adversary, he knew that this was a god-slaying technique even more terrifying than the Qi Clan's Primordial Spirit attack.

The person capable of wielding such terrifying techniques must have an extraordinary background. Similarly, given their youth, they must be a renowned genius.

Was I a bit too impulsive just now?

Ling Chen was reflecting on how he had acted coldly and even arrogantly when his fellow Daoist first appeared.

But the miserable state of his old rival made him realize that if the other party had really insisted on forcibly joining in the resource sharing earlier, he would have been absolutely unable to stop them, and if he had angered the other party, he would have suffered the same fate.

Fortunately, my fellow Daoist is very law-abiding and not a domineering person.

"Roll."

In mid-air, Jiang Ping sheathed his sword, his demeanor unchanged and spotless, and returned the word "get lost" to the two Qi Bing exactly as it was.

Qi Bing stood with difficulty on the sea. He took healing pills, which relieved his pain slightly, but the pain remained and seemed impossible to erase.

He remained silent, not daring to look up at Jiang Ping, knowing full well that the other party had already shown mercy; otherwise, a few more blows from that terrifying golden blade might have annihilated his Primordial Spirit and caused his death.

In the end, the two Qi Bing limped away in a sorry state.

Boom!

After sheathing his sword, Jiang Ping displayed the Withering Mystic Skill and charged towards the Fierce Beast Haize.

These Sea Beasts do not cultivate their Primordial Spirit; they evolve and grow by breaking the Shackles their bloodline.

Therefore, the Zhan Shen Saber poses a great threat to the spiritual travel of those practicing their Primordial Spirit, but it is difficult to harm the Haize Beast.

May I ask your esteemed name, brother?

At this moment, Ling Chen launched a fierce attack on the Sea Beast while asking questions, his eyes filled with respect.

Jiang Pingping.

Jiang Ping flashed a smile, revealing his white teeth.

He discovered that Ling Chen was also a remarkable person. When they first met, Ling Chen was arrogant and treated him like a nobody. But after witnessing his abilities, Ling Chen addressed him as "Brother Dao" repeatedly.

In reality, he was only in his early fifties, several decades younger than Ling Chen.

"Brother Jiang, are you from my Tianluo Region? Which island are you from, True Cloud?"

Seeing that Jiang Ping seemed easy to talk to, Ling Chen became interested and couldn't help but ask a few more questions.

"No, it's from outside the region."

Jiang Ping replied that he would still present himself as a traveler from afar.

"Having traveled from afar?"

Ling Chen's expression was strange as he recalled a certain traveler who had been the subject of much discussion recently.

Of course, he didn't connect the person in front of him with Chen Nianjiang.

After all, that Chen Spirit Wander was far too amazing; he was someone even he had to look up to.

Jiang Pingping, on the other hand, is stronger because her Primordial Spirit Golden Saber is incredibly powerful. Her own extraordinary skills are not as good as Heavenly Might Skill's, and she is well over a hundred years old.

"You two, stop talking. This Fierce Beast has thick hide and tough flesh; it seems impossible to take it down."

At this moment, Ling Family's Third Heaven Spirit Wander spoke up.

He realized that he had underestimated the strength of this Fierce Beast's bloodline; even the three Divine Realm cultivators working together were unable to suppress it for a time.

"It's alright, it's almost dead, it's just putting up a last-ditch effort."

Jiang Ping smiled.

In fact, he also discovered that this Haize was too ferocious and had a terrifying physical body, so much so that even his Withering Marvelous Art had little effect on it.

It's a minor issue.

Thump!

He struck again, and boundless Dao Rhythm engulfed the Fierce Beast.

"Roar!"

The Fierce Beast roared, yet it was also terrified, sensing a deadly threat, as if its death was imminent.

What happened?

Is it truly at its last gasp?

Something's not right. Only it knows its own situation. It could have held on for a long time, but something's not right now. The scythe of death seems to be really approaching. Once its physical body withers, it will be difficult to recover as before.

"Eh! Fellow Daoist Jiang was right. It was just bluffing; it's about to collapse."

The old man from the Ling Family was overjoyed, because he saw that the Fierce Beast no longer had the fierce momentum it had shown before; it was weakening, and its flesh was decaying layer by layer.

"Damn, even this lowly Fierce Beast has learned to put on airs."

Ling Chen snorted coldly. These Sea Beasts were of low intelligence. Even if they could travel in spirit, their thinking was not as good as that of humans. However, this Sea Beast in front of him had learned to deceive people and pretend to be rich, which almost made him give up.

Fortunately, Brother Pingping stepped in, which showed his skill level.

He sensed the withering effect up close and was horrified. This extraordinary ability was terrifying; it could corrupt life.

Bang!

As expected, the Fierce Beast was cornered and was killed by the three of them working together.

Jiang Ping intended to cleave the Fierce Beast's body open with his knife, but was stopped.

"Brother, please don't! There's a cluster of Half-divine medicine inside this Fierce Beast's body."

"What?"

Jiang Ping looked at Ling Chen with a strange expression.

Ling Chen smiled, finally seeing the surprise in this fellow Daoist's eyes.

He explained that his purpose in raiding the beast's den was to obtain the Half-divine medicine; otherwise, given his family background, why would he be forced to fight this Fierce Beast?

The Qi Bing, too, must have done the same, arriving after receiving word of the danger.

"This cluster of Half-divine medicine grows on the seabed. It was first discovered by this Haize monster, who then settled here. When we learned of it and rushed over, the monster, like a frightened bird, swallowed the Half-divine medicine whole. However, it's alright; Divine Medicine have strong vitality. As long as it's transplanted to a suitable location, it should be able to completely transform into Orthodox God herb."

"That's what the elder from the Ling Family said."

Then, he personally took the knife and carefully cut open the Fierce Beast's belly, taking out a cluster of gleaming herbs that emitted pure medicinal power.

Jiang Ping was overjoyed, never expecting such an opportunity on his journey, and couldn't help but say:

"Approximately how long will it take to transform into Divine Medicine?"

"Hmm..." The old man carefully examined the Half-divine medicine and replied:

"It is estimated that it will take about a hundred years to completely transform."

"Century?"

Jiang Ping's smile was somewhat stiff.

I thought it was a great opportunity, but this is all?

Of course, something is better than nothing, he added:

"Just replace mine with a Spirit Pill."

"Ah? Brother Dao doesn't want the Divine Medicine anymore?"

Ling Chen was surprised to learn that the Spirit Pill was made by mixing scraps of Divine Medicine or Half-divine medicines with some Primordial Spirit. In terms of effectiveness, it was far inferior to Divine Medicines.

"No, let's not."

Jiang Ping shook his head. Waiting a hundred years is not as good as using the resources now, which can also quickly improve cultivation.

"Brother Dao, you are truly an extraordinary person!"

Ling Chen sighed, "Who would exchange Divine Medicine for Spirit Pill?"

Of course, this was a happy event for him, as he would be able to receive Half-divine medicine a hundred years later.

Afterwards, Jiang Ping received two hundred Spirit Pills, including the Fierce Beast's body.

"Two hundred Spirit Pills, if consumed entirely, will only have one-fifth of the effect of a Divine Medicine, and you won't be able to absorb its special medicinal properties, which are very helpful for breaking through cultivation barriers. Brother, are you really not reconsidering? This deal is a huge loss."

Ling Chen had a good impression of Jiang Ping and couldn't help but try to persuade him again.

Jiang Ping remained unmoved and insisted on having the Spirit Pill.

"Alright, but we don't have that many Spirit Pills on hand, we need to go to Golden Cloud Island."

Ling Chen and his companion handed over the dozens of Spirit Pills they carried to Jiang Ping and then spoke.

"Yes, Jiang am passing through this area and am on my way to Golden Cloud Island. I am quite curious about the scenery of Jinxia Island and would like to see it."

After accepting the Spirit Pill, Jiang Ping said something that delighted Ling Chen, who then extended a strong invitation to visit his residence.

"Good!"

Jiang Ping nodded. When you're traveling, you always need to make some friends; having more friends means having more options.
