Chapter 779: Chapter 704: Consecration_1
Black Rock Market Town.
The eastern part of the city.
In the neighborhood where Fang Xi now lived, more than a dozen Individual Cultivators had scattered households.
Most Individual Cultivators had opened up a small Spiritual Field by their front doors, planting things like Spirit Rice and fruits and vegetables.
In the past twenty years, the population of Black Rock City had not decreased but instead, had increased significantly.
This was probably due to the continuous return of the wilderness people, as well as the reproduction of the Cultivators within the city.
On this day.
A clever-looking young man, holding a few pieces of Monster Beast Meat, came to the front of Fang Xi’s Dongfu: "Uncle... Xiao Chong is here to see you again."
The door of the Dongfu opened, and Fang Xi came out with his hands behind his back.
Seeing the Monster Beast Meat in Xiao Chong’s hand, he couldn’t help but smile, "Just come if you want to, why be so polite?"
"My master said, Uncle, you have a lot of tricks up your sleeve. He told me to learn from you!"
Xiao Chong said sincerely, "If it weren’t for Uncle’s advice on sword techniques before, I might have fallen in the wilderness this time..."
"With your current early Foundation Establishment Cultivation, wielding a low-grade Spiritual Instrument Flying Sword, it is still very dangerous in the wilderness. You could lose your life at any moment... After all, those strong Wild Beasts and evil creatures won’t reason with you. If your mother’s spirit in heaven knew about it, she would not rest content..."
Fang Xi pulled out a gourd of wine and took a swig of Green Bamboo Wine.
Years ago, Widow Liang had risked her life to bring back some supplies, and since then, her health had never been good, passing away after a decade.
Fortunately, by that time, Xiao Chong had grown up and with the support of his master, Zhou Jun, he had overcome many obstacles in Qi Refining and successfully reached the Foundation Establishment phase!
After Xiao Chong achieved Foundation Establishment, he joined a ’Demon Hunting Team’ formed by a small circle of Individual Cultivators nearby, frequently going out to capture demons, obtaining Monster Beast Meat.
The resources of the wilderness were actually incredibly abundant; it just depended on whether Cultivators were willing to risk their lives to obtain them.
Nowadays, many Individual Cultivators in Black Rock Market Town had discovered several relatively safe hunting grounds, trading their lives one by one for this knowledge.
Of course, when "safe" is mentioned, even a Cultivator at Foundation Establishment could accidentally perish.
Even Core Formation or Nascent Soul Cultivators, if they encountered Wild Beasts, would only face death.
Strangely, in these more than twenty years, Black Rock Market Town never suffered an attack from Wild Beasts or evil creatures.
Fang Xi was quite clear about the reason; it was most likely due to the Tri-Horned Yuan Rhinoceros!
The presence left by the Primordial Chaos Beast in this place would make all the beasts retreat, wouldn’t it?
And the reason why the other party did this was probably just to raise pigs.
Looking at the thriving Black Rock Market Town that was on the verge of forming a new Cultivators’ civilization and ecosystem, Fang Xi knew that the day of harvest was not far off!
"I’ll go see Master..."
After talking for a while, Xiao Chong got up to say goodbye and went to visit Zhou Jun.
According to Fang Xi’s senses, Zhou Jun’s injuries were worsening, and if he could not save himself, he would likely only last a few more years.
"How interesting!"
He muttered to himself and returned to his Dongfu.
In the Void, a flash of Silver Light, and a little green bird flew out, with a letter in its mouth.
Fang Xi took the letter and saw that it was indeed a message from Fairy Yunxi and Liu Xu.
This time in their letter, besides sharing some increasingly unbearable news about Sky Brahman City, they also talked about a dilemma they faced.
Fairy Yunxi and Liu Xu had entered the Earth Immortal Realm, and although their Cultivation had soared rapidly, they still had a distance to go before reaching the major bottleneck of Returning to Emptiness.
At this time, among their fellow disciples, one senior sister had already reached the Perfect Transcendent God stage and had even completed the auxiliary Cultivation of the Five Elements Skills.
Now she wanted to attempt this major bottleneck, but suffered from a lack of Spiritual Objects, and she was borrowing from many fellow disciples...
’Can Returning to Emptiness Spiritual Objects really be bought in Sky Brahman City? Or is it a channel from the Heavenly Charm Sect?’
’Could it be some sort of scammer?’
Fang Xi blinked.
Fairy Yunxi and Liu Xu were facing a dilemma. After all, the camaraderie among fellow disciples was there. If they did not offer help, it would undoubtedly ruin their reputation, and they might even offend a future Returning to Emptiness senior uncle!
For such matters, Fang Xi never gave advice; it was up to the two women to decide on their own.
"Master, master, when are we going out to play? It’s so boring here..."
Xiao Qing landed and transformed into a fair-eyed and lovely girl, tugging at Fang Xi’s sleeve.
"Go out and play? Do you still not know how dangerous it is outside?"
Fang Xi smiled and shook his head: "To have this place for a temporary rest and gain a respite of twenty years; you should be smiling to yourself..."
Moreover, for a Returning to Emptiness Cultivator to spend twenty years hunting a Primordial Chaos Beast was nothing at all.
Some would dedicate even fifty to a hundred continuous years of pursuit for that.
Of course, that kind of situation was very special; the Primordial Chaos Beast materials must be exceedingly rare and closely related to breakthroughs in Cultivation or even to saving one’s life.
"True... staying also allows us to watch a good show."
Xiao Qing looked towards the direction of Zhou Jun’s Dongfu: "That old man’s not far from death; is he preparing for Soul Possession?"
Zhou Jun was a Nascent Soul Cultivator, after all. When it came to the final moment of body collapse, he could attempt Soul Possession!
By doing so, he could rapidly recover his injuries, and if the body chosen for possession was highly compatible, especially if the Spiritual Root was the same and the same cultivation method was practiced, then the Cultivation could be quickly restored.
After all, once Soul Possession with Nascent Soul was completed, there was no need to transcend tribulation to condense the Nascent Soul again, merely restoring Magic Power would suffice.
"Maybe..."
Fang Xi looked towards Zhou Jun’s Dongfu, his gaze enigmatic.
...
Half a month later.
A tremendous tremor rippled through heaven and earth. Spiritual energy from hundreds of miles around flocked to a certain place in the west of the city.
A Spiritual Pressure far surpassing Core Formation emerged and spread outwards, shocking everyone within a hundred miles.
