Step by Step Ascend to Immortality

Chapter 79: Chapter 69 Strange Crow

Liu Suiyun was extremely dissatisfied with Guo Huijun's answer. Xu Zhaori alone had already shouted at him, "Commander Xing, if you don't have the guts, just say so. Don't waste so many people's time!"

This was another helper Xu Zhaori had found. A cultivator who had reached great success in Qi Refining was named Chen Chaonan. He was a very shrewd thin man and had been looking at Liu Suiyun with disfavor since he appeared.

For this treasure hunt, Xu Zhaori had found Liu Suiyun, Chen Chaonan, and Guo Huijun. An Zhiyu from the Tianhong Sect also found two old cultivators similar in age to him. They were preparing to take one last gamble before their deaths. Coupled with a bunch of warriors like Xia Jingjue who were there to assist, the number of people was definitely not small.

However, with more people, there were inevitably frictions among them. Chen Chaonan had always been looking at Liu Suiyun with disfavor. It seemed as if Liu Suiyun was not poaching Xu Zhaori's people but his own. And now Xu Zhaori had to stand up and say, "Old Xing, don't worry! Everything is on me. You can charge at the front without hesitation."

"Zhaori, I trust you!"

Since Xu Zhaori had spoken, Liu Suiyun also unhesitatingly accepted his mission. "I'll see just what kind of dangers are inside Yanchi Mountain!"

In terms of combat power, of course, Guo Huijun is the first. The other cultivators are not even half as good as her. But for the task of being a scout, Liu Suiyun is the most suitable.

Liu Suiyun has both the combat power at the Yuanlong realm and the cultivation at the middle stage of Qi Refining. Coupled with his experience as a scout, this fully proves a truth. The more you learn, the harder you work. Even in the world of cultivating immortality, as long as you don't have a backer, no matter how capable you are, you can only take on the most dangerous mission.

However, after Liu Suiyun explored about forty miles deep into Yanchi Mountain, he couldn't help but be amazed by the extreme danger here.

Yanchi Mountain seems to be a wild mountain range. In many places, it is even just a desert. But the number of demon beasts active here is astonishingly large. I don't know what sustains them. From time to time, one can see hundreds and hundreds of large herds of beasts.

Moreover, it is said that there are three types of beast herds gathering here, on land, in water, and in the air. Casually finding a small lake with abundant water and grass, there are actually large groups of demon crabs rampaging over. As for the various big birds hovering in the high sky, although Liu Suiyun is used to seeing them, he still has to avoid them from a distance.

But in such a desolate and dangerous environment, Liu Suiyun still saw many documents written in red and other eye-catching characters everywhere along the way. Liu Suiyun originally thought these might be relics of True Lord Beihe. But upon closer inspection, he found it ridiculous. They were all solicitcustomers posters put up by someone unknown.

Foundation Establishment in one year, Core Formation in two years, Nascent Soul in five years..."

I don't know how these many solicit customers posters were put up. You should know that this is Yanchi Mountain, full of dangers. Even a good hand like Liu Suiyun may not be able to ensure his own safety. Not to mention that these recruitment posters and slogans are everywhere, even more than the demon beasts in Yanchi Mountain. Moreover, there are small Daoist techniques on these stickers and slogans, automatically removing dust and keeping clean. There will be no damage within a hundred years. Not to mention that there are so many in number that even a powerful strike from a Nascent Soul cultivator is difficult to destroy them all.

But Liu Suiyun soon found a familiar name on a solicit customers poster: "Do you want to be famous all over the world? Do you want immortals to come in droves? One spirit stone can bring the attention of a hundred thousand immortals. One spirit stone can let a hundred thousand cultivators see your name. One spirit stone can bring hundreds of immortals! Unprecedented publicity in major secret realms, precious mountains, marketplaces, and sects. Please contact Wang Qinian of Jiazhou Marketplace..."

At the bottom corner of the poster and slogan, Liu Suiyun also found the tiny words "Written by Wang Qinian of Jiazhou Marketplace" like mosquitoes. If one doesn't observe carefully, it's really hard to find this mark. Only then did Liu Suiyun understand why Wang Qinian was so confident when he left Jiazhou Marketplace.

Regarding these posters and slogans, Xu Zhaori also expressed helplessness: "Old Xing, are you worried that the tomb of True Lord Beihe has been explored? Don't worry, don't worry. They are just making empty talk. They are not in the same business as us!"

While saying this, the group had already walked more than a hundred miles deep into Yanchi Mountain. In two days and one night, they had experienced more than forty battles of various sizes. Even though most of the battles ended with Liu Suiyun leading everyone to escape first, there were still a few tough battles. Liu Suiyun was now covered in beast blood all over. If it weren't for the power of the Heavenly Tear Falling Star Sword, perhaps someone in the entire team would have fallen by now.

But the problem is that the deeper they go, the more posters and slogans created by Wang Qinian there are. Whether looking up, looking down, looking forward or looking back, one can see Wang Qinian's familiar handwriting. Liu Suiyun has already understood what Wang Qinian meant when he said he is everywhere - Is there any place where you don't exist?

But this also caused Liu Suiyun to worry. Will the final result of this treasure hunt be an empty tomb? Over there, An Zhiyu has already given a guarantee: "Everyone rest assured, everyone rest assured! The Spiritual Plant Volume of the Supreme Secret Essentials is absolutely safe, absolutely safe..."

"Safe my ass!" Chen Chaonan had already cursed. He stared firmly at Xu Zhaori, his eyes full of heat: "I'm not here for the Supreme Secret Essentials. Zhaori, you promised me. As long as I follow you on this trip, you promised to let me read your"Cicada Transforming and Shaping Scripture". No matter whether Wang Qinian has gotten there before us or not, and no matter whether there is the Supreme Secret Essentials or not, I only care about your"Cicada Transforming and Shaping Scripture"!"

Just as Xu Zhaori was about to reply, Liu Suiyun suddenly held the Heavenly Tear Falling Star Sword tightly. The entire team also immediately dispersed. Even Chen Chaonan temporarily suppressed the heat in his eyes and stared firmly at the crow flying in the sky.

This crow was very large. While making a "ya... ya... ya" sound, it was circling above everyone. The old cultivator An Zhiyu's face darkened. He took out a spiritual ruler and was about to attack the crow above his head.

Just at this moment, this unknown crow uttered a hoarse voice: "Fellow daoists, this road was not opened by me, this tree was not planted by me. If you want to pass here, please enter the underworld. Please turn back quickly..."

"Sound Fixing Disk?" Liu Suiyun guessed it was such a spiritual artifact. But Guo Huijun on the side immediately corrected his mistake: "It's not a Sound Fixing Disk, it's not a Sound Fixing Disk! It's definitely the crow-taming technique of the Supreme Demon Sect! This is at least a quasi-Golden Core cultivator."

Supreme Demon Sect?

In Liu Suiyun's impression, the Supreme Demon Sect seems to be a rather terrifying existence. His impression since childhood is that this Supreme Demon Sect is an existence that does all kinds of evil and acts tyrannically. True Lord Beihe, this alternative candidate for Long Aotian, is the representative of the Supreme Demon Sect. In the end, the actions of the Supreme Demon Sect aroused public anger. The three sects representing justice, Linghua Sect, Tianhong Sect, and Shenxiao Sect, joined forces and defeated the source of all evil, the Supreme Demon Sect. The sky in the world of cultivating immortality has returned to its former clarity.

Of course, this is just the official statement of the three major sects. But in any case, the Supreme Demon Sect is a completely illegal existence. As soon as its disciples appear, they will be chased and killed to death by countless cultivators of the three sects. They can only hide in poor and desolate places to survive. The Tianma Plain is such a typical poor and desolate place.

But before this, Liu Suiyun had never encountered a cultivator of the Supreme Demon Sect. His only impression was that Gu Shanhe had delayed his journey because of dealing with matters related to the Supreme Demon Sect and finally failed to save Huo Qianshu.

The crow was still circling in the air. An Zhiyu gripped the spiritual ruler tightly and asked loudly, "Which fellow daoist of the Supreme Demon Sect are you? We only seek to pay our respects to the true appearance of True Lord Beihe!"

And Liu Suiyun also regained his usual calm. According to his experience, although this crow is mysterious and strange, the demon cultivator behind it may not be powerful. If they had a complete victory in hand, why would they send this crow to explore the way? Wouldn't it be better to just destroy us easily.

Dogs that don't bark bite. And Guo Huijun had already raised her silver spear and was ready to fight at any time. But this strange crow circled for a long time and still didn't reply, making everyone wait anxiously.

Liu Suiyun casually picked up a stone and tentatively threw it into the air. Unexpectedly, this strange crow didn't dodge or evade and was directly hit down by Liu Suiyun's flying stone.

Liu Suiyun didn't expect that this casual strike could actually hit down the strange crow controlled by a great cultivator of the Supreme Demon Sect with divine sense. But soon he found that it was not the case at all. The sharp-eyed Guo Huijun shouted out, "It's actually a Sound Fixing Disk..."

This is just a slightly spiritual and trained crow. The reason it can make a sound is because it is carrying a Sound Fixing Disk, not because the cultivator on the other side is controlling the strange crow from hundreds or thousands of feet away.

Just as they had just determined that the unknown cultivator on the other side was just a paper tiger, a rumbling sound came from afar. Xu Zhaori cursed, "Damn it! That bastard took advantage of our inattention and actually attracted a large herd of beasts. Everyone break through separately and regroup at the tomb!"

In the distance was an overwhelming herd of beasts!
