And then a reminder, "Actually, even if you tell him, as long as he doesn’t jump out of the Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks and doesn’t enter the Hundred Floating Domains, no matter how great his opportunity is, he can’t obtain that critical object for Heterodox Core Formation in the Divine Fall Mountain Range.
But once inside the Hundred Floating Domains, to plot for that item with Foundation Establishnt cultivation and snatch it from the jaws of the Golden Core Zhenren is nothing short of a fool’s dream. So sotis, knowing more might be more painful for him. If he really possesses that destiny for a Heterodox Golden Core, he’ll still obtain it even if you don’t tell him."
"But telling is better than not telling." Feng Jue spoke resolutely.
"Alright, suit yourself, kid." The soul inside Feng Jue had no choice but to follow his intent.
...
anwhile, Yue Yinrong was overjoyed upon receiving Wen Jiu’s sound transmission.
Thirty thousand Spirit Stones, to guarantee his entry into the Ancient Evil Cultivator’s Cave Mansion, who cares about spending the Spirit Stones?
"Fellow Daoist, let’s et at the designated place in ten days." Yue Yinrong didn’t ntion Han Li by na in the Sound Transmission Talisman, nor did he provide additional information, cautious of eavesdropping from Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks or Three Life Gates.
"Agreed."
After responding, Wen Jiu inquired about his companions, aside from himself and the Tier Two Spirit Array Master, there was a Demon Cultivator. But the other two were keen to explore the Ancient Evil Cultivator’s Cave Mansion, so they returned his Spirit Stones. In other words, now only Wen Jiu alone was helping her.
However, Wen Jiu didn’t mind; the number of people didn’t matter to him. Because choosing to accompany Yue Yinrong was rely to use her as a cover. Going with Feng Jue would draw too much attention. If a late-stage Foundation Establishnt Cultivator from Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks appeared, they’d surely target Feng Jue, and his companions wouldn’t escape notice either.
Wen Jiu simply wanted East Spring Undying Bone to explore the place, see if he could gain any opportunities and return quickly to continue Corpse Nourishing, so it’s best to avoid unnecessary battles.
...
Just as Wen Jiu dispatched East Spring Undying Bone, the Corpse Fate Technique of Three Thousand Blood Inks finally reached the Small Success Realm the next day.
[Skill: Corpse Fate Technique (Small Success 0/10000)]
In the Dark Realm, sixty-six Earth Destiny Stars lit up, forty-two remained unlit, completely lighting them would allow one to enter the Great Success Realm.
According to the Yin Yang Cultivator’s soul mories, the last forty-two were the most challenging part of lighting the Earth Destiny Stars, becoming increasingly difficult as one progressed.
Even with the dual approach of Innate Death Land and Earth Demon Star Pointing Technique, it remains an insurmountable chasm for many Fate Technique Cultivators, where ninety percent of the Fate Technique cultivators fail at this step.
The Yin Yang Cultivator reached this step not only because of talent, Innate Death Land, Earth Demon Star Pointing Technique, and other Earthly Evil Qi techniques but also due to a critical cultivation thod—killing fellow cultivators.
Slaying peers in the Fate Technique, then devouring their Dark Realm and Earth Destiny Stars, would strengthen oneself. This is a secret technique passed down by the Golden Core in Three Life Gates. The Yin Yang Cultivator killed one hundred and sixty-three of his peers at this step, including many longti friends, most died not knowing why he killed them.
"Unfortunately, the Corpse Fate Technique can only devour other Dark Realms and Earth Destiny Stars after reaching Small Success, otherwise the Yin Yang Cultivator’s Dark Realm and Earth Destiny Stars would be magnificent cultivation materials." Wen Jiu sighed, but didn’t feel sorry.
The days ahead are still long.
Even if unable to devour other Fate Technique cultivators’ Dark Realms and Earth Destiny Stars, relying on gradually gaining experience was sufficient for realm advancent. With the daily settlent panel, bottlenecks were nonexistent.
Wen Jiu tried again, controlling Three Thousand Blood Inks for Corpse Nourishing while practicing Corpse Fate Technique aided by Earth Demon Star Pointing Technique and Corpse Nourishing Spell. Six hours of cultivation yielded twelve points of experience, requiring ten thousand points to progress from Small Success to Great Success, achieving Great Success in under two-and-a-half years.
After closing the panel, Wen Jiu imdiately attempted to use Corpse Fate Technique to test the calculation costs.
After so maneuvering, Wen Jiu calculated the positions of Eastern Celestial City, Feng Jue, and Yue Yinrong. Among them, calculating Feng Jue’s location had the highest consumption, Three Thousand Blood Ink Corpse Qi depleted by thirty percent.
After spending thirty percent of Corpse Qi, sixty-six Earth Destiny Stars lit up in the Dark Realm, Wen Jiu then retrieved the Yin Yang Cultivator’s Tier Two Mid-grade Spiritual Artifact Life Plate. With both resonating, an invisible force descended onto the Life Plate.
With the Life Plate rotating, Feng Jue’s location information was transmitted to Wen Jiu’s consciousness via Three Thousand Blood Ink. It was three thousand miles east of No Leaf River in the Far South, flying quickly from west to east.
While Wen Jiu was divining with Corpse Fate Technique, Feng Jue’s flight direction suddenly changed drastically, seemingly sensing the divination from Corpse Fate Technique, prompting Feng Jue to imdiately change course and enter the Land of Absolute Spirit and Mortal World.
Monts later, Wen Jiu spent another tenth of Corpse Qi to divine his position, seeing Feng Jue crossing a mortal city nad Celestial Harmony City, heading east. However, the next mont Feng Jue again changed course like a startled bird.
Wen Jiu laughed helplessly, ceasing the divination of Feng Jue, realizing he had nurous hidden cards indeed for sensing the calculation of the Corpse Fate Technique.
Afterwards, Wen Jiu attempted multiple tis with the pair from Eastern Celestial City, the calculation for Eastern Celestial City consud the least, requiring half a tenth. Using Corpse Fate Technique, the location of Eastern Celestial City in the Far North was easily obtained.
Yet the position remained unchanged for a hundred breaths, indicating Eastern Celestial City lacked such defensive asures. Wen Jiu was unsurprised, considering Eastern Celestial City was an ordinary Foundation Establishnt from the Far West, but what Wen Jiu didn’t anticipate was the divination for Yue Yinrong’s position took one and a half tenths.
A whole tenth more than Eastern Celestial City.
As to why it consud so much more, Corpse Fate Technique provided feedback: factors influencing strength, foundation, etc. Currently, Yue Yinrong was no longer in Wind and Cloud Immortal City but heading to the Traceless Mountain Range, thus eliminating interference from such external forces, implying the impact ca solely from Yue Yinrong herself.
"Seems like Yue Yinrong hid her true strength." Wen Jiu rejoiced, unexpectedly the Corpse Fate Technique could indirectly assess soone’s foundation. Although unable to calculate fully, it allowed assessnt of threat levels based on Corpse Qi consumption.
The more Corpse Qi consud for position calculation, the greater the individual’s strength and foundation.
"With this, the journey to the Ancient Evil Cultivator’s Cave Mansion feels a bit more secure." Wen Jiu gathered his thoughts and continued cultivating Corpse Mushrooms and nurturing the two corpses.
Three days later.
East Spring Undying Bone crossed the Wilderness, bypassing ongoing battles between Heterodox sects and vassals of Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks in the eastern part of the Divine Fall Mountain Range, arriving at the Traceless Mountain Range to et Yue Yinrong.
Besides Yue Yinrong at the agreed location, there was only an Early-stage Foundation Establishnt Demon Cultivator in a Beast Pattern Robe; the Tier Two Spirit Array Master wasn’t present. Watching this scene from afar, Wen Jiu wasn’t concerned, only controlling East Spring Undying Bone to cup his fist towards the two.
Yue Yinrong hurriedly stepped forward to introduce, "Fellow Daoist Han... this is Fellow Daoist ng, having achieved Early Stage thirty years ago, possesses a Tier Two Lower Grade Half-Demon body, on par with true Foundation Establishnt Body Cultivators. Across the Divine Fall Mountain Range, few Early-stage Loose Cultivators dare claim they can beat Fellow Daoist ng."
After his words, Wen Jiu imdiately explored Shen Tu’s soul mories, learning the true na and experience of this individual.
This person was nad ng Chao.
Reportedly a Loose Cultivator from the Celestial Demon Sea, he’s been in the Divine Fall Mountain Range for over seventy years, remaining a Loose Cultivator and never joining any faction. Thirty years ago, in the Early Stage, he defeated a seasoned Early-stage Cultivator.
Over thirty years, seven Early-stage Cultivators have fallen at his hands, many middle-stage Loose Cultivators are also reluctant to face him directly.
"It’s not simple indeed." Wen Jiu sighed within the cave mansion. Truly, if it were a common Early-stage Loose Cultivator, would they dare ddle? Even ddling aside, they likely wouldn’t even know about the Ancient Evil Cultivator’s Cave Mansion.
"A Corpse Cultivator who becos a corpse rather than practicing Corpse Nourishing... that is indeed rare." ng Chao sized up East Spring Undying Bone, sensing its faint Foundation Establishnt Power before speaking with interest.
Then ng Chao offered advice to Yue Yinrong, "Fellow Daoist Yue, in the Heterodox Dao, Corpse Cultivators are extrely sinister and ruthless, even peers avoid them. Inviting him to guard you into the Ancient Evil Cultivator’s Cave, aren’t you afraid he’ll backstab you?"
