Arrival at Heavenly Hut Continent [Bonus Chapter]
The power of the Gloomwind Slash increased by more than 30% after being enhanced by the Nine Nether Astral Wind.
However, these were only two early to mid-stage Purple Mansion Demon Beast, which were no match for Chen Nianzhi. With a series of swift movements of the Heavenly Separation Twin Swords, a Purple Mansion demonic vulture was Divine Ability shattered and killed.
Another Purple Mansion Demon Vulture tried to escape, but an invisible sword aura flashed past and severed its head.
In the blink of an eye, Chen Nianzhi seized the opportunity and forcibly killed the two Purple Mansion Demon Beast. Then, Clear Moon Wind-Riding Escape and disappeared into the sky with the Scarlet Blood Boat.
Unfortunately, they left in such a hurry that Chen Nianzhi only had time to retrieve one of the two Demon Beast cores; the other one was swept away by the Nine Nether Astral Wind to who knows where.
All of this seemed to happen very quickly, but in reality, Chen Nianzhi used the Jade Spirit Eyes Divine Ability, the Heavenly Separation Twin Swords, and the Formless Sword in the blink of an eye.
The combination of these three supreme weapons of slaughter and a Divine Ability, coupled with the opponent's recklessness and the extreme speed of the Scarlet Blood Boat, was what led to this victory.
A moment later, the Scarlet Blood Boat broke through the encirclement, Yu Qingyan breathed a sigh of relief, her face pale.
She stared at Chen Nianzhi in surprise, her eyes gleaming with a strange light, and after a long while, she couldn't help but speak.
"To slay two Purple Mansion in a single breath, Brother Dao, your methods are truly ruthless."
"You flatter me." Chen Nianzhi nodded and said with a smile, "It was just due to the power of the Immortal Sword and the sneak attack of the Formless Sword."
"You're being modest." Yu Qingyan took a breath and couldn't help but say, "To be able to seize an opportunity in an instant and achieve victory in one strike, your combat experience is even greater than that of Golden Core realm Ancestor."
Chen Nianzhi didn't say much, and urged the Crimson Scarlet Blood Boat to continue forward.
Thankfully, they didn't encounter such a large horde of Demon Beast again. After flying for a month, the two finally escaped Gloomwind Ridge.
After passing Gloomwind Ridge, Heavenly Hut Continent was not far away. Chi Xue flew for ten days, covering about seven or eight hundred thousand miles, and arrived at the edge of the Heavenly Hut Continent.
Upon reaching the edge of the Heavenly Hut Continent, both of them breathed a sigh of relief.
After this journey, the two worked together to overcome the Gloomwind Ridge, forging a bond of friendship forged through shared hardships.
Yu Qingyan looked at Chen Nianzhi and asked with a smile, "Fellow Daoist, what brings you to the Heavenly Hut Continent?"
"To be honest, I've come here to purchase a piece of Solar Treasure Crystal."
Chen Nianzhi did not hide anything and directly told her her purpose.
"Solar Treasure Crystal?"
Yu Qingyan's eyes flickered slightly, then she nodded and said, "It is indeed very difficult to buy Solar Treasure Crystal in the Ji Continent, but they are occasionally sold in the Heavenly Hut Continent. You will surely be able to achieve your goal here."
I hope so.
Chen Nianzhi nodded, then asked, "May I ask why the fairy has come to the Heavenly Hut Continent?"
"I've come to visit my close friend," Yu Qingyan said with a smile when he asked her. She paused for a moment, then added, "I don't know where you're from yet, so I can pay you a visit sometime."
"I am from the Chu Chen Clan in the Ji Continent."
He smiled slightly and said politely, "It would be my honor if you could grace us with your presence."
"Giggle--"
Yu Qingyan chuckled, sizing up his appearance, and teased, "I'm just a Rogue Cultivator, and I don't even have a Third-Order Spirit Vein right now. Who knows, your Daoist temple might be so beautiful that I won't want to leave."
Chen Nianzhi's eyes flickered slightly, but he said calmly, "I'm afraid that won't work. My wife would be angry."
Yu Qingyan: "..."
She was somewhat disappointed, giving him a regretful look before changing the subject, "My good friend is named Fairy Qingyan. She and her husband, Daoist Qingci, live together in Peach Blossom Mountain in the Yuan Kingdom."
"After this trip, I expect to stay there for several years. If you need anything, you can come to Peach Blossom Mountain to find me."
"..."
After parting ways with Yu Qingyan, Chen Nianzhi also flew into the Heavenly Hut Continent on his sword.
After entering Heavenly Hut Continent, he found a small Cultivation Market and quickly learned about the general situation of the Heavenly Hut Continent.
Unlike Ji Continent, Heavenly Hut Continent only has two countries: Lu Kingdom and Yuan Kingdom.
Although there are only two countries, they are very large, each several times the size of the Chu Kingdom of Chu.
The strongest of the two countries is the Lu Kingdom, and the ruler of the Lu Kingdom is the Heavenly Hut Sect, which was once the only Nascent Soul sect in the Heavenly Hut Continent.
Heavenly Hut Sect was Nascent Soul sect with immense strength, but in recent years, two Heavenly Hut Sect Nascent Soul cultivators had perished, greatly weakening its power.
Near the Ji Continent is the Yuan Kingdom, ruled by Nascent Soul Qin Clan, a newly emerging Nascent Soul Immortal Clan in the Heavenly Hut Continent Qin Clan.
This clan produced a Nascent Soul Cultivator more than three hundred years ago, and then produced a second Nascent Soul Cultivator several decades ago.
It is extremely rare in the entire Eastern Wilderness that a newly Nascent Soul Immortal Clan has been able to produce two Nascent Soul Cultivator in just over three hundred years.
The newly emerging Nascent Soul Immortal Clan is simply no match for the established Nascent Soul Nascent Soul Clan. Whether it's the resources they possess, their cultivation Cultivation Method, or their talent pool, they are not on the same level.
In the eyes of many, the Qin Immortal Clan must have had incredibly good fortune, with their ancestral graves emitting auspicious smoke, producing two exceptionally talented True Lord in succession. Otherwise, how could they possibly have given birth to two Nascent Soul True Lord in such a short period of time?
"Is this Qin Clan related to that person?"
Chen Nianzhi's eyes narrowed slightly. After investigating for a long time, she still couldn't confirm whether that person was related to the Qin Clan.
The Qin Immortal Clan has a very good reputation. They are not arrogant and are often at the forefront of slaying demons and monsters.
Qin Clan's Nascent Soul True Lord even ventured deep into the Heaven's Spine Mountains, signing a pact Human Race and Demon Race, which doesn't seem like he was committing any evil deeds.
"Isn't it them?"
Chen Nianzhi sat upright in the pavilion of Qinyuan Market, looking at the Qin Immortal Clan Dojo in the distance, her gaze somewhat solemn.
In fact, he had a way to detect the person's identity, which was to use the Grudge-Thought Soul Pursuit Technique. However, the Nascent Soul True Lord's Divine Sense was extraordinary. Once he used this technique to find the person, he would definitely be sensed by the Nascent Soul True Lord.
"More than a hundred years ago, my mother's blood was extracted to be refined into a Precious Pill."
"He broke through to the Nascent Soul decades ago; the timing is too coincidental."
Chen Nianzhi's gaze was icy, and in the end, she suppressed the urge to use the Grudge-Thought Soul Pursuit Technique.
Just then, a cultivator from the Purple Mansion nearby asked, "Fellow Daoist Wei, what are you thinking about?"
This person is the manager of the Qin family's shop. Chen Nianzhi came to the Qin Clan's shop under the alias Wei Chongyang to buy supplies in order to gather information.
Chen Nianzhi smiled slightly and said calmly, "Please forgive my lapse in composure. It was my first time witnessing the magnificent aura of the Nascent Soul Immortal Clan, and I was simply a little flustered."
"Hahaha."
The Purple Mansion cultivator laughed heartily and said, "Fellow Daoist Wei has broken through to the Purple Mansion at such a young age; he certainly has the potential to break through to the Nascent Soul in the future."
"Fellow Daoist, you flatter me." Chen Nianzhi quickly shook his head and said helplessly, "I've heard that many high-level cultivators like Nascent Soul True Lord possess Dao Body. How can my talent compare?"
At this point, he asked with some reverence, "Presumably, the two True Lord among the nobles are also peerless geniuses with Dao Body?"
That is...
The man surnamed Purple Mansion stroked his long beard and laughed heartily, "The True Lord of my Qin Immortal Clan are all born with Dao Body and are all renowned geniuses throughout the world."
