Chapter 1689: Chapter 1691: My Bluff (Second Update)
Master Dang spoke the truth, but this was his strategy—the other party might not believe him.
As expected, the monster really didn’t believe it, but it had its own logic. “Are you kidding ? If I observed correctly, the Ten Directions Platform and that Small Golden Core just now… didn’t seem to have a good relationship, how could he bring Feng Jun along?”
No one is that easy to fool, not even a monster with a sowhat dull mind.
Master Dang had to ponder for a mont, then he smiled bitterly and nodded, “So you saw through my bluff. I was just pretending to be strong.”
The bitter smile was genuine. Master Dang knew that by bringing Feng Jun to et Ji Buseng, he had offended him severely.
His bitter smile ca from the heart, but the monster’s thoughts were different from his.
It pondered for a mont and asked, “Did Feng Jun really co, and if he did, would he manage you?”
By this question, it was clear that it had a good understanding of the relationship among human cultivators in the Kunhao Plane.
Feng Jun might not co, and even if he did, given the poor relationship between the two parties, he might not want to help.
Master Dang hated when his disciples spoke out of turn for this reason. He knew Feng Jun was unlikely to help, but he could use this information asymtry to devise a way to escape.
But these disciples spoke recklessly, revealing too much information, so the other party straightened out the relationships, making it much harder for everyone to escape.
Under such circumstances, his current choice was to go against the grain. Acknowledging so objective truths might produce a surprising effect, so he nodded and replied in a very straightforward manner.
“That’s right, we indeed have so misunderstandings with Feng Jun, and even if the resentnt has been revealed, seeing him still makes us angry. But after all, he is a human cultivator, so whether he will just watch you rampage is hard to say… especially when you have animosities.”
The monster felt its head was a bit muddled—weren’t these words encouraging it to devour them?
With the cunning of the Da ng Executor, fooling a monster like a redwood spirit wasn’t much of an issue.
It dazed for quite a while before smiling and speaking, “I understand now, Feng Jun hasn’t co at all, and you are trying to bluff , right?”
Actually, at this mont, Feng Jun was also hesitating—should he intervene?
He knew his aura was already noted by the other party’s True Immortal, so he didn’t dare to go to the island to spy, but asked Ji Buseng to peek instead—for the sa reason, Yan Yuxi couldn’t get involved in this matter.
Ji Buseng was also quite… excited mixed with fear about this task, investigating a True Immortal.
However, after arranging various counterasures, he still went with pleasure—no wonder he initially chose the Tianxin Platform, people choose cultivation techniques, and cultivation techniques choose people back.
He didn’t go empty-handed, carrying an ultra-high-definition cara that could almost rival satellite equipnt.
Ji Buseng pretended to leave casually, t Feng Jun and Yan Yuxi, and then exhaled with relief—it seed that as long as he saw the two, he would feel grounded, though this feeling was a bit uncomfortable for him.
He expressed with lingering trepidation, “Oh my, if I hadn’t closed all my pores, at least five pounds of sweat would have dripped.”
Then a hint of a smile appeared on his lips, “Thankfully, that old Dang was so annoying… thinking about his disgust made stop thinking about anything else and just curse, hard to admit, but even Dang has so benefits.”
Unlike Master Dang, Ji Buseng was explicitly told that there might be a redwood spirit True Immortal on Netherworld Island, so he deliberately went to experience it. Although he didn’t find a True Immortal, he could vaguely sense so unusual suppression.
He basically confird that there was indeed great horror hidden on the island, and the cara did bring back so footage.
After watching for a while, the Big Boss inford Feng Jun, “That’s not a Five Elents Spirit Fusion Array, it’s modified and reversed, and among wood elent spirit monsters, few understand this… It’s certain that, the cunning one is seriously injured and wants to deceive cultivators’ blood.”
I definitely know it’s severely injured! Feng Jun was more aware of this than the Big Boss. That thing kept chasing him every day for its branch until he went to Thunder Plains to dispose of it.
However, when these things happened, it was the days he was wasting ti in the Mobile Phone Plane, so he couldn’t be blunt with the Big Boss.
Thus, he rely relayed the Big Boss’s words, showing that Master Dang and the others were in trouble.
Ji Buseng looked at him strangely, “You just knew all this knowledge again?”
Yan Yuxi extended her thumb in genuine admiration, “Mountain Master Feng’s Dao tradition is truly remarkable!”
“This has nothing to do with my Dao tradition,” Feng Jun quickly shook his head. “It’s just sothing gained by accident.”
Although he had no objection to showing off, the main character was at that mont residing in the Spirit Beast Bag. He didn’t want the Big Boss thinking he highly valued its tradition; otherwise, the setup could easily collapse—as a descendant of a powerful Dao tradition, how could he take pride in another’s tradition?
As a result, these words actually dissatisfied the Big Boss, “Are you looking down on or sothing, why do you have to cut ties with ?”
With the presence of the Redwood Essence confird, the remaining question was how to kill it. Just as a flash of green light appeared, Yan Yuxi noticed sothing, “Wait, it’s right here… move back a bit.”
The three of them observed several tis and finally confird that this was likely the location of the Redwood Essence’s true body. Feng Jun quietly inquired with the Big Boss.
The Big Boss indicated that with such distance, it couldn’t be confird, but as long as the other party dared make the next move, it could basically lock onto the aura.
Its thought had just been transmitted when the spirit suddenly jolted, “Over there… they’re taking action!”
When Feng Jun indicated that the Redwood Essence had begun to act, Ji Buseng and Yan Yuxi were bewildered. Yan Yuxi even asked in amazent, “From such a distance… especially with all this disturbance, you can still sense it?”
However, that is precisely where the Big Boss’s prowess lies — not being particularly powerful but understanding the rules much better than others.
Feng Jun responded with a smile, “Even before the Warship arrived at the Tianxin Platform, I could sense it too.”
“Stealing my glory, shaless,” the Big Boss relentlessly mocked, having forgotten that monts ago it had complained, “Looking down on .”
Ji Buseng and Yan Yuxi accepted his explanation without further questioning — asking too many questions would be taboo. However, they were soon shocked by Feng Jun’s next ssage, “What, soone has already died… not just one?”
We are over three thousand miles from there.
This is, of course, the ability of the Big Boss, a result of the “Spatial Anchor Position.”
The Spatial Anchor Position was originally marked on the broken space. When the space broke, the anchor followed the causal line, vaguely pointing here, so the Big Boss could sense sothing.
Now confird here at the Netherworld Island, the Big Boss’s anchor completely locked onto this place, and because the other side acted, the Big Boss decisively locked onto the true body of the Redwood Essence.
The mark of the anchor is very, very faint; otherwise, it wouldn’t bypass the True Immortal’s perception. However, this allows the Big Boss to sense what is happening there.
Regarding the death of the Ten Directions Platform disciples, Ji Buseng expressed that it’s a welco event, “Haha, it would be better if they were all killed!”
The Heavenly Heart Platform cultivators act at will, truly saying whatever they think without any care, without considering what is “politically correct.”
Yan Yuxi looked at him with a mix of amusent and helplessness, “Master Busheng, if the spirit monster harms people… the vow of Wutai activates automatically, right?”
“What vow of Wutai…” Ji Buseng rolled his eyes but ultimately refrained from saying anything more excessive, instead asserting, “They drove away; if they bring death upon themselves, they can’t bla others!”
Yan Yuxi hesitated; she could detest Master Dang, but after all, the Ten Directions Platform were collaborators with Pine Cypress Peak. In the end, she looked at Feng Jun, “So, if they’re all killed by the Redwood Essence, will the Redwood Essence’s power surge?”
Feng Jun guessed what she intended to say and, after a pause, replied, “It would rely heal so of its injuries.”
Yan Yuxi shook her head and sighed, saying nothing more—he clearly had no plans to care about the survival of the Ten Directions Platform cultivators.
Feng Jun also remained silent, furrowing his brow in contemplation.
Ji Buseng wanted to avoid the topic of the Ten Directions Platform and instead asked, “Are you… not sure how to kill the True Immortal?”
Feng Jun smiled, though his expression remained heavy, “I made so designs when I ca, but the situation has changed sowhat…”
Since he ca for revenge, how could he not have a plan? However, the spatial disturbance that occurred here exceeded his expectations, creating difficulties, but the confirmation of the true body was a positive change.
Regardless, the plan needs to change; there is no doubt about that.
Ji Buseng and Yan Yuxi exchanged glances, seeing the surprise in each other’s eyes—it’s the True Immortal, soone could plan for one?
As for the change in situation? That was certain; the original plan didn’t include the Ten Directions Platform, but these people forcefully intervened, and now look, the spatial disturbance eliminated half, while the monster pressed the rest into submission…
Since eting Feng Jun, Ji Buseng’s understanding had been repeatedly refreshed, and he now felt accustod to it. He boldly asked, “Will the Redwood Great Demon absorbing the blood sacrifices increase the difficulty of revenge?”
“Of course it will,” Feng Jun answered casually, as it was Master Busheng asking, he didn’t fear the other turning into a diator.
Therefore, he answered very clearly, “Striking early would be easier, but after absorbing the essence blood, suppression and absorption require a process, during which its cultivation level is affected, you understand?”
“I understand, suppressing the backlash,” Ji Buseng nodded with a laugh, then began to chuckle, eventually laughing uncontrollably, “Haha, Dang old brat has his day… The blood of those Ten Directions Platform disciples becos your aid against the True Immortal, rember to count in.”
“No need,” Feng Jun shook his head, answering with a troubled expression, “I said earlier, I invited you for protection.”
“You’re one to talk,” Ji Buseng expressed, clenching his fists eagerly, “This is a battle against the True Immortal, how can you leave out?”
