“How is this possible?!”
“What kind of Nascent Soul is this?!”
The two dark cultivators were utterly horrified as if they had just witnessed sothing beyond comprehension. Who had ever seen a Nascent Soul this massive?
Xiao Chi also froze in place, his eyes wide with shock. The ghost infant had already been beyond ridiculous, but Brother Xun’s Nascent Soul was even more absurd.
This was Brother Xun’s true strength—a one-on-two fight, completely suppressing the enemy. Xiao Chi let out a deep breath, nearly thinking they were dood.
“Nascent Soul mid-stage and you dare to act all high and mighty in front of ?”
A cold voice suddenly ca from behind the two dark cultivators, causing their souls to shudder and their hearts to falter. Slowly, they turned their heads with stiff movents.
“We’re just so fishern. We haven’t bothered anyone,” Chen Xun stood between them, hands gripping their heads in sudden fury. “Back to the furnace with you two! Reflect on how to properly cultivate!”
With that, Chen Xun suddenly slamd them down from the air.
**Boom! Crash~~~!**
The three figures plumted like teors, crashing into the ground with a deafening crack. The sound of the earth-shattering echoed far and wide, accompanied by the crunch of skulls breaking. The impact created massive fissures that spread all the way to the distant sea, leaving two enormous trenches in their wake.
The ground collapsed into a large crater, and the two dark cultivators’ eyes burst from their sockets, filthy blood spraying into the air. Their spiritual energy and Nascent Souls were completely suppressed, unable to move, writhing in unbearable agony.
Xiao Chi’s fur was blown backward by the gusts of wind, his mouth agape in stunned silence...
“**Moo!!**”
Brother Ox let out a furious bellow, his voice thundering across the sky. The remaining dark cultivators had all fallen into his Five Elental Array—none of them would escape.
“**Aaaah!!~**”
“Master!!”
…
The sea echoed with mournful cries. The dark cultivators were trapped by the Five Elental Chains, and the array even had the ability to burn their very souls. Their soul-destroying weapons were useless.
“Brother Ox, Xiao Chi, prepare the Ascension Array!”
“**Moo!**”
“On it, Brother Xun!!”
The three of them soared into the air, taking their positions at the array’s three corners. A hundred and eight incense burners surrounded the dark cultivators, who remained blissfully unaware that they had been caught in the illusion of the Ascension Array.
“Friend... we were blind and failed to recognize your greatness. Please, show rcy!”
The elderly woman, drenched in blood, weakly called out, “We are from the Soulfall Hall. Killing us brings you no benefit.”
Her expression was dark with frustration. After a thousand years of cultivation, she had encountered such terrifying individuals. This overwhelming sense of helplessness was sothing she hadn’t felt since facing the Hall Master.
“Forgiveness is Buddha’s business,” Chen Xun sneered, his fingers forming a gesture before his chest. “We’re just here to send you off to et the Buddha.”
“Brothers, let’s begin! Ti to give them a peaceful dream and help them ascend!”
Brother Ox and Xiao Chi nodded in unison, their spiritual energy surging into the incense burners as they began chanting sutras.
“**Aaaah!!!**”
The dark cultivators scread in despair as black smoke rose from their heads. Their eyes filled with deep regret and terror—why had they provoked these people?!
Their remaining flesh was slowly evaporating, while the ghost infants in their ranks were pierced by so invisible force, gradually dissipating.
As the trio’s chanting intensified, so did the agonized wails of the dark cultivators. They weren’t even dead yet!
Finally, with a simultaneous burst of power, the trio shouted together, “Send these souls to ascend!!”
**Boom! Boom!**
The dark cultivators exploded all at once. There was no blood mist, no remains, nothing. It was as if everything had been completely annihilated, their souls exorcised to the point where not even reincarnation was possible.
Xiao Chi, quick as always, snatched up the storage rings they left behind. Those were too valuable to waste—after all, he was still using a storage bag.
Brother Ox waved his massive hoof, and a deafening explosion rippled across the sea. The five boats were instantly obliterated into dust. They had arrived intact, but there was no going back.
The three sat back down by the shore, resuming their peaceful enjoynt of the stormy sea. It was as if nothing had happened, their deanor as relaxed as ever.
Xiao Chi’s admiration for Brother Xun and Brother Ox overflowed—so reliable, his sense of security was now off the charts!
“Brother Ox, you’re not hurt, right?” Chen Xun glanced over, admiring Brother Ox. “As expected of my brother, taking on three dark cultivators like it’s nothing.”
“**Moo~~**” Brother Ox glanced at him, smug and proud. Of course.
“Brother Xun, Brother Ox, what do we do with these storage rings?”
Xiao Chi stood on the chair, holding dozens of storage rings. Each one was locked with a seal, so he didn’t dare open them recklessly.
“**Moo!**” Brother Ox waved a hoof, “Let handle it.”
The Five Elents Seal Breaking technique hadn’t been used in a while. When it ca to breaking seals, he was an expert.
It didn’t take long before the seals on the storage rings were broken without a hitch, and black smoke wafted from the remains—a clear sign that these were not good things.
“**Moo~**” Brother Ox’s eyes widened in surprise. The seals had been trapped—if they had tried to break them by force, the storage rings could have been destroyed, and they might even have been injured.
“Whoa.”
Chen Xun’s spiritual sense had already entered the rings, while Xiao Chi set up a protective barrier to shield them from the wind and rain.
The storage rings were full of sea charts, the kind that couldn’t be bought on the market, showing the locations of various forces’ island strongholds.
Xiao Chi pulled out a few manuals, his eyes twitching wildly. These were all sinister techniques for using human cultivation resources—refining a cultivator’s Golden Core, Nascent Soul, and using Soul cleansing Pills to suppress resentnt and demonic energy.
“Truly dark cultivators,” Chen Xun remarked, glancing over the contents. “No wonder their cultivation made them neither human nor ghost. Only the sea could offer them refuge.”
“**Moo~~**” Brother Ox snorted, engrossed in a particularly wicked formation manual.
The storage rings contained a massive amount of spiritual stones and spiritual herbs, with over two hundred thousand dium-grade spiritual stones alone, most of them water-elental. Clearly, they had robbed countless cultivators.
“Brother Xun, we’ve hit the jackpot!!” Xiao Chi exclaid, unable to believe his eyes. He had never seen so many spiritual stones in his life. “There are so many herbs and pill recipes too. Unbelievable!”
“These Nascent Soul dark cultivators have probably been operating in this sea for over a thousand years. This is everything they’ve accumulated.”
Chen Xun chuckled, still counting their haul. “Xiao Chi, now you understand what it ans to strike down the wicked for the greater good?”
“I get it, Brother Xun!” Xiao Chi ran in excited circles, elated beyond words. He had nothing after a thousand years, but now they were rich.
Brother Ox, having heard the ntion of spiritual stones, put down the formation manual. His eyes went wide—truly a windfall, they were rich beyond asure.
“Xiao Chi, take out the little book you bought in the city and copy down these sea charts.”
“Got it, Brother Xun!”
“Brother Ox, check through these manuals and books. Destroy anything we can’t use—those Nascent Soul cultivators likely have thods for leaving traces or locking onto us through their items.”
“**Moo! Moo!!**” Brother Ox jumped into action, running about as he organized the contents of each storage ring.
Chen Xun studied the five skull tokens in his hand. **Soulfall Hall**—just the na scread dark sect. They probably had Nascent Soul late-stage experts in their ranks.
The spiritual herbs were all ones they hadn’t seen before, exclusive to the sea. These would need to be cultivated carefully.
However, none of the storage rings contained any information about the Divine Transformation stage. That realm was reserved for Da Li’s absolute elite, beyond the reach of ordinary Nascent Soul cultivators.
As ti passed, they continued to ticulously organize the storage rings by the shore.
Dawn had yet to break, and the sea was still a serene gray, utterly calm. The stormy night felt like nothing more than an illusion.
Suddenly, a distant light appeared on the horizon, and the clouds above ignited as if set afla. The reflection of the sun on the sea was distorted by the waves.
On the shore of the uninhabited island, the three figures were still busy, ticulously sorting through the storage rings.
Xiao Chi occasionally let out bursts of laughter as he ran about. Even though the spoils weren’t his, he couldn’t help but feel ecstatic for his two brothers. This journey had been thrilling.
Brother Ox’s tail flicked so fast it beca a blur as he **mooed** with laughter.
