Once the Finger Strikes, Life and Death Are Left to Fate!

The moment the words "Four Symbols Sect" were uttered, several people stopped in their tracks.

The name alone is enough to intimidate most Cultivator, and these Sect have abundant resources; if they are determined to buy, these Rogue Cultivator simply cannot compete with them.

However, some people remained unmoved.

A burly man carrying a long sword snorted, "So what if it's the Four Symbols Sect? It's a business transaction, so let's see who offers the better price!"

Upon hearing this, many people looked surprised.

Someone asked in a low voice, "Who is this person? He's got quite the nerve."

The Four Symbols Sect is not a small sect, and most of the people here are Rogue Cultivator. It's fine for them to discuss things privately on ordinary days, but there Cultivator gathered by the Boundless River, and there might be disciples of the Four Symbols Sect among them.

It's not uncommon for enemies to be formed over a single word, so Void Heaven Cultivator are naturally very cautious; those who have survived to this day are all shrewd and experienced.

"You don't recognize him? This is Feng Xiao, the last disciple of Lu Jiu, the Heavenly Blade Master," the person beside him transmitted telepathically.

"No wonder he dared to speak of the Four Symbols Sect like that; he's Lu Celestial Person's disciple."

I saw him at the Market Ward early this morning; I didn't expect him to have heard the news and come over too.

"Looks like we have no chance, sigh!"

"Top-Grade Profound Tier Dao Soul —under everyone's watchful eyes, how could it possibly be our turn?"

"That's true. Although most of these Sect are based in the Illusionary Spirit Sect's territory, who knows if there's anyone like that guy surnamed Shi!"

Many Cultivator glanced at the old man with the Sharp-Mouthed Monkey-Faced- like face with ill intent, knowing that he had secretly notified the Four Symbols Sect.

This man's name was Shi Kairong, and he was also a figure who frequented the area around the Boundless River.

Shi Kairong looked at Feng Xiao with a hint of apprehension, but unwilling to lose face, he chuckled and said, "Fellow Daoist Friend, you can speak with Elder Qin later. I am merely..."

Before he could finish speaking, a blade of light suddenly appeared, and even before the blade's energy reached him, he felt every hair on his body stand on end.

He hurriedly used his protective aura to shield himself, and threw out a Talisman Artifact that transformed into Giant Axe several meters in size to meet the blade light.

Laugh!

The Giant Axe cleaved it in two at the waist, but the blade's momentum continued unabated as it slashed down.

Shi Kairong hurriedly dodged, and seeing the crater dozens of feet long and unknown in depth left by the blade's energy on the ground, he exclaimed in shock and anger, "What are you doing?"

"Who do you think you are, daring to Daoist Friend? If you dare say another word, I'll chop off your head with the next strike." Feng Xiao raised an eyebrow and said coldly.

Shi Kairong was furious, pointed at Feng Xiao but dared not say anything more.

Feng Xiao smiled disdainfully, sheathed his long sword, turned around and took a step, arriving at a distance of a hundred feet from Gu Yuanqing.

"Fellow Daoist Friend, name your terms. If they're suitable, I'll find a way. If you want Ancient Coin, Top-Grade Profound Tier starts at 50,000 Ancient Coin. I think this Water Ape is of good quality; I'll offer 80,000. What do you think?"

Gu Yuanqing said calmly, "Not for sale. This Water Ape is compatible with my cultivation path; I'll keep it for myself."

Feng Xiao was somewhat disappointed. If it aligned with his own cultivation level, then it wouldn't be a matter of price. However, he still made one last effort and said, "Daoist Friend, you might as well reconsider. Although Dao Soul can increase cultivation level, it is ultimately risky, and it is still uncertain how much one can comprehend."

Eighty thousand Ancient Coin can buy two Dao Comprehension Pill, which can also increase one's cultivation. I see that Daoist Friend haven't bought Storage Bag in this Ancient Realm yet, so I can give Daoist Friend one as a bonus."

Gu Yuanqing shook his head and said, "Sorry, it's really not for sale."

Feng Xiao sighed upon hearing this, "Alright, since Daoist Friend say so, I won't insist. If you change your mind, you can come find me about two thousand miles above here. The conditions I mentioned earlier are still valid."

Gu Yuanqing bowed respectfully.

"Pity!"

Feng Xiao shook his head, turned and left, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

Gu Yuanqing said in a detached tone, "This Dao Soul is for my own use. Fellow Daoist Friend, please disperse."

Many people were just there to watch the spectacle, and the fact that Gu Yuanqing had so easily captured the Top-Grade Profound Tier Dao Soul had also made many people abandon any other intentions.

Gu Yuanqing glanced around and saw several people hesitating and lingering around, their intentions unknown.

He glanced at the Dao Soul in his hand, then reeled in his Fishing Rod rod and used his movement technique to head towards the mountains behind him.

Ordinary Dao Soul can Refinement in an instant, but this Top-Grade Profound Tier Dao Soul is not so simple. It not only requires mental effort but also a certain amount of time.

This place has already attracted a lot of attention, and there are still people lingering around, so it is obviously not suitable for Refinement here.

Gu Yuanqing planned to find a safe place in the Mountain behind the town.

Suddenly, Gu Yuanqing frowned slightly, sensing that three people were following behind him, the one closest being the old man with the Sharp-Mouthed Monkey-Faced- like face.

Gu Yuanqing abruptly stopped, turned around, and said calmly, "Why are you all following me?"

Shi Kairong seemed startled and chuckled awkwardly, "Daoist Friend, don't be in such a hurry to leave. As I just mentioned, Elder Qin of the Four Symbols Sect is also interested in the Dao Soul in your possession. Why don't you wait here for a while?"

Gu Yuanqing said indifferently, "I've made myself clear, this Dao Soul is not for sale."

"I understand what you're thinking, Daoist Friend, but everything is negotiable. Please wait a moment, Daoist Friend, and let me give Elder Qin an explanation," Shi Kairong said with a smile, cupping his hands in greeting.

Gu Yuanqing said expressionlessly, "There's no need for that. How you explain yourself is your business, it has nothing to do with me. Don't follow me anymore, or don't blame me for being impolite."

After saying that, Gu Yuanqing turned and left.

Shi Kairong hesitated for a moment, but still followed, though he kept a little distance.

Two more people were following far behind, their intentions unclear.

After a moment, Gu Yuanqing's voice rang out again.

"I'll say it again: if any of you continue to follow me, you are responsible for your Life and Death."

But the warnings don't seem to have any effect.

Especially Shi Kairong, who was only a few miles away from Gu Yuanqing, locked onto his aura with his Divine Sense from afar, seemingly unafraid of anything.

Gu Yuanqing suddenly turned around, his Void Piercing Heavenly Eye locking onto Shi Kairong, then sweeping his gaze over the other two, his voice turning cold. "You all seem to have completely ignored my words."

Shi Kairong smiled and said, "Daoist Friend, you flatter me. I just happen to be going in the same direction as you. There's no rule in this world that says Daoist Friend can go in this direction but I can't."

Gu Yuanqing said, "You're afraid of Feng Xiao but not me? Well, that's true. Here, I'm just an unknown nobody."

"You're joking, there's no such thing as being afraid or not."

Shi Kairong chuckled, seemingly unconcerned.

In his view, the person in front of him was clearly Rogue Cultivator, and the only thing on his body that could be considered High Antiquity artifact was his Fishing Gear.

Even if their cultivation level seems to be higher than mine, I have many trump cards up my sleeve, so why should I be afraid?

His goal was simply to stall this person until Qin Changqing arrived, take the agreed-upon benefits, and leave. He had no intention of engaging in a battle of wits with Gu Yuanqing.

The two who followed further away also crossed their arms, as if watching a spectacle.

Gu Yuanqing said calmly, "Since you won't listen to advice, then let me see what abilities the three of you really have!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he extended two fingers and tapped the Void three times.

Beneath this seemingly calm and unassuming action, Shi Kairong and the two who were following further away suddenly felt a violent jolt in their hearts, their Dao Heart constantly warning them.

They couldn't see what Gu Yuanqing had done; it was as if he had pointed in the Void, without even a trace of true Vital Energy.

But their intuition told them: extreme danger.

Those who achieve the Void Heaven are almost all those who have gone through countless battles. Even if they don't understand it, they still follow their inner intuition.

Retreat!

They retreated frantically.

At the same time, the Void Heaven World trembled, and the Void Heaven Domain firmly covered itself.

One by one, the Law Treasure obtained in the Ancient Realm were activated and placed in front of them.

Even so, the feeling of being on the verge of death never faded.

What exactly happened?

The smile on Shi Kairong's face had vanished, replaced by extreme terror.

The next second, he finally understood. He felt that various Dao Resonance first appeared out of thin air in his location, and then it was as if all the Dao had collapsed.

Everything around me began to collapse, turning into tiny Particle!

The Formless Calamity Finger!

Although it was only powered by Gu Yuanqing's own strength, and its power was much weaker than when it was in the Demon Realm, Shi Kairong and the others were only at the Void Heaven, not Celestial Person!

Gu Yuanqing smiled indifferently, didn't look at his own results, and turned to leave.

Once a finger is extended, Life and Death are in the hands of fate.

You're lucky to have survived; if you died, you deserved it!
