Chapter 432: Super Divine Beast Tournament: Xuanwu!
Chapter 432: Super Divine Beast Tournament: Xuanwu!Yan Shoujing stated that the Demonic Sect disguises itself in various ways.
For instance, some members of the Demonic Sect might choose to open inns, while others might open blacksmith shops... In such cases, you need to bring a piece of Meteorite Iron and ask if they can forge a Meteorite Iron Divine Bow.
And they might ask if you also want Meteorite Iron Arrows made.
You respond by asking how high and fast the Meteorite Iron Arrows can fly... and that's how you exchange secret codes...
Some members of the Demonic Sect hide within major sects. In such cases, to make contact, you must first set up a small Gathering Spirit Array, then cultivate within it for three days and nights. Afterward, they will ask if they can join you in the array for cultivation.
You should respond that the array can only accommodate two people...
They will say, "Perfect... I'm the other person..."
Chu Xinghe: "???"
What the... Deputy Sect Master... you call this having no understanding of the Demonic Sect?
You even know their secret codes... is that really having no understanding? Is that appropriate?
Chu Xinghe looked confused at the Deputy Sect Master, who was equally bewildered...
At this moment, Yan Shoujing realized... in his excitement, he might have said a bit too much...
"Ahem... Xinghe, these are just some things I heard while traveling the world in my younger days... just hearsay, really. I'm just saying it, and you're just listening, don't take it to heart..."
Chu Xinghe looked at the serious-faced Deputy Sect Master and couldn't help but sigh... truly a nemesis of the Demonic Sect...
Although I, Chu Xinghe, hold the top spot on the Demonic Sect's must-kill list, when it comes to understanding and dealing a heavy blow to the Demonic Sect, it's still our Deputy Sect Master.
Wu Xingyun, you're truly blind... our Deputy Sect Master not being at the top of the Demonic Sect's must-kill list is simply unjust.
Although the Deputy Sect Master shared many rumored methods of contact within the Demonic Sect, none of them were useful to me.
Moreover, from the Deputy Sect Master, Chu Xinghe learned that at present, performing a Universal Celebration for the Demonic Sect is somewhat unrealistic.
Even our Deputy Sect Master, the nemesis of the Demonic Sect, doesn't know Wu Xingyun's exact whereabouts. Wu Xingyun isn't just a sly rabbit with three burrows; he's a cunning fox with a hundred dens... where would you find him?
There's no way to surprise Wu Xingyun.
As for the other members of the Demonic Sect, it's even less likely, as they blend into the crowd, leaving no opportunity to present them with a Universal Celebration.
It seems this matter requires long-term planning.
Chu Xinghe bid farewell and left the Grand Sky Palace, and as soon as he left, Yan Shoujing went into seclusion.
Yan Shoujing stated that he must go into seclusion... recently, he feels like he's losing his mind... how did he end up revealing all the secret codes of the Demonic Sect?
I, Yan Shoujing, am a spy for the Demonic Sect... but why do I feel a bit excited when I hear Xinghe wants to target the Demonic Sect?
It must be that I've been muddled by researching formations lately, and I need to calm down in seclusion.
I, Yan Shoujing, must maintain my original intentions, and I still have Little Cui'er waiting for me...
In the following days, Chu Xinghe traveled all over the Grand Sky Sect, asking senior brothers, sisters, and elders if there were any evil places in the world. ????ÄƝÖΒЕ????
I, Chu Xinghe, cannot coexist with evil and wish to eradicate all forms of it!
The results showed many evil places, but few met the conditions for a Universal Celebration.
For instance, a certain cult located in the northwest could be celebrated by the Great Sage without harming ordinary people, but the problem is that their location is said to be a red stone mine... who knows what would happen if it exploded?
Some evil forces aren't located in mines, but after inquiring, Chu Xinghe found that these forces now only have about a hundred people left...
Wouldn't it be a bit too brutal to have the Great Sage lead a Universal Celebration against just a hundred people?
Using a cannon to kill a mosquito is already absurd, but using a nuclear bomb is just inappropriate.
Chu Xinghe was so worried his hair was turning white... having a Universal Celebration with nowhere to use it, isn't that infuriating?
And what's more infuriating is... while I'm at a loss, Wan Lin and Hu Wenhai are on a rampage.
Thunder Hand Brother Ben's speed has now shocked the entire Grand Sky Sect.
In a short time, Brother Ben has successfully crafted a Mirror Talisman for each disciple of the Grand Sky Sect, allowing them to use it freely.
With the Mirror Talisman, each palace has begun learning to control their own demonic beasts.
Every disciple of the Grand Sky Sect has received their own demonic beast, and now, as you walk through the palaces, you can see disciples training their beasts and honing their coordination.
Although the demonic beasts cannot fully unleash their combat power, their thick skin and strong bodies, combined with the disciples, create a magical synergy, and the disciples' combat power has significantly increased.
Originally, Wan Lin had carefully selected two demonic beasts for Senior Brother Xinghe, but when she was about to present them, Ma Liang intervened.
Ma Liang stated, "Sister Wan Lin, while these two Eighth Grade demonic beasts are excellent, wouldn't they be somewhat unworthy of Senior Brother Xinghe's status?"
Without two emperor-level demonic beasts by his side, how could Senior Brother Xinghe even greet others?
Wan Lin immediately realized her mistake upon Ma Liang's reprimand.
Brother Ma Liang is right; while Eighth Grade demonic beasts are strong, what is Senior Brother Xinghe's status?
Using anything less than emperor-level demonic beasts for Senior Brother Xinghe might make others think he's being treated unfairly.
So, we must wait until we cultivate Ninth Grade emperor-level demonic beasts before giving them to Senior Brother Xinghe.
Mu Bai also assured Sister Wan Lin that Muyue Nation would work overtime to accelerate the research on spiritual herbs for demonic beasts, ensuring the cultivation of Ninth Grade emperor-level demonic beasts for Senior Brother Xinghe.
While others have their own demonic beasts, Ma Liang had something to say about Senior Brother Xinghe not having one.
Ma Liang stated, "Does Senior Brother Xinghe need a demonic beast now?"
I, Ma Liang, can accompany Senior Brother Xinghe; I am his demonic beast!
Thus, Outer Disciple Ma Liang directly took the two Eighth Grade demonic beasts for safekeeping on behalf of Senior Brother Xinghe.
Not only did the inner disciples receive their demonic beasts, but even the outer disciples were treated equally by the Grand Sky Sect.
In fact, the demonic beasts for the outer disciples were personally delivered by Ma Liang, the king among outer disciples, to each one.
The process of distributing the demonic beasts was quite pleasant, except when Ma Liang arrived at a certain rundown house, the voice from inside slightly dampened his mood.
"Hmph! That dog Xinghe giving you demonic beasts is just to confuse your minds!"
"What are demonic beasts? They're just external objects... Cultivation should focus on oneself; as the saying goes, 'to forge iron, one must be strong oneself.' How can you reach the pinnacle by relying on external objects?"
"You've been deceived by that dog Xinghe. He's leading you astray with these external objects!"
"That dog Xinghe is malicious; he's not helping you but harming you!"
"In the entire Grand Sky Sect... only I, Chu Cheng, see through that dog Xinghe's despicable nature!"
"Bang..." The door of the rundown house was kicked open again, and Ma Liang, along with Bighead Carp Liu Bo and a group of outer disciples, filed in.
The scene that followed was rather harmonious. Ma Liang not only used his hands to strengthen Chu Cheng's body but also activated the Wan Ghosts Formation to deeply temper Chu Cheng's soul.
Ma Liang finally understood why Senior Brother Xinghe had previously said, "Ma Liang, why don't you visit the outer sect more often?"
Ma Liang hadn't understood why Senior Brother Xinghe said that... but now he knew... he was wrong... he had been wandering around the inner sect, completely neglecting the task of helping Senior Brother Xinghe's fellow townsman.
Rest assured, Senior Brother Xinghe, I, Ma Liang, have reflected deeply. From now on, I will frequently return to the outer sect, regularly helping Chu Cheng strengthen his body while also tempering his soul!
Of course, after the tempering, Ma Liang didn't forget that he was there to deliver a demonic beast.
However, the demonic beast given to Chu Cheng was somewhat different...
Other people's demonic beasts were either speed-type or attack-type... some were balanced.
But the one given to Chu Cheng... was a very cute little turtle...
Ma Liang stated, "Please don't think that just because it looks like a little turtle, I'm targeting Chu Cheng."
I, Ma Liang, never target others. This demonic beast is extraordinary, with a resounding name... Sai Basalt!
You may see it as just a cute little turtle now, retracting its head... but if you cultivate it to the super-divine level, wouldn't it truly have the ability to surpass the divine beast Basalt?
For Ma Liang's explanation, Bighead Carp led the applause, affirming that Ma Liang was not exaggerating.
Brother Ma Liang truly learned from Senior Brother Xinghe's virtue, willing to give even a future divine beast like Sai Basalt to someone like Chu Cheng!
What? You say Sai Basalt isn't even First Grade now?
So what? Sai Basalt refers to its potential to surpass Basalt upon reaching the super-divine level, not its current state...
What? You say this little turtle can't grow at all?
We're discussing whether it can surpass Basalt upon reaching the super-divine level, not whether it can grow.
So, just say if it reaches the super-divine level, can it surpass Basalt?
As for it being unable to grow... why bother with such meaningless details?
After carefully tending to Chu Cheng's injuries and bandaging him, the group left his room, promising to visit him more often in the future.
Once everyone had left, Chu Cheng looked at the Sai Basalt before him with determination in his eyes!
Sai Basalt can't grow?
"Hmph! That's just the limited knowledge of you dogs... There's no path that can't be walked, only foolish people... Today, this Sai Basalt is the signal of my rise, Chu Cheng!"
"In my hands, Chu Cheng! Sai Basalt will surely have its day of transformation!"
After speaking, Chu Cheng gently stroked Sai Basalt, and in the next second, Sai Basalt let out a splat, leaving Chu Cheng's hand covered in a foul-smelling mess...
Indeed, Sai Basalt had transformed...
