Spirit Vessel

Chapter 955: Three Days

Xuanyuan Yiyi looked dignified and beautiful just like an orchid flower: “There is no negative for you in visiting our paradise, it might be a fortuitous opportunity as well, why are you being so stubborn?”

“Sorry, I’m not interested in this opportunity.” Feiyun returned to his original appearance while still wearing the beggar disguise. He turned around to leave.

“I cannot disobey the order of the deity, excuse me then.” Yiyi raised one finger and released enough sword energy to seal the courtyard.

Feiyun summoned his spear and crushed ten strands right away. He then activated his Buddhist domain and became blindingly radiant. The images of the silkworms all had different appearances.

He spun his spear around like a windmill and destroyed all the incoming sword energies.

Meanwhile, numerous spectators including old experts from medial clans were present.

“This half-demon is quite capable, not many in the young generation dares to fight her.”

Celestial Fairy also watched the fight. ‘She’s at the Sword Heart World level, worthy of being the saintess of Aquamoon Paradise.”

Others couldn’t believe that these two were fighting. One was a saintess of Aquamoon while the other was a lowly half-demon.

Feiyun’s eyes turned cold as he thought about using the power of his saint domain. However, this seemed rather unwise and reckless.

“I’m too tired to fight today, I’m done.” Feiyun put away his spear and the Buddhist light disappeared: “I can’t come with you today, wait three days.”

“Why?” Yiyi asked and put down her finger. Her voice was as pleasant as the chirping of a nightingale.

“I have ongoing auctions in three days at Heavendream, so you have two choices. Kill me right now or wait three days and I’ll go with you.” He said.

“Very well, I will wait three days.” She disappeared like the wind but her ethereal voice remained: “But do not try to escape. I can find you even if you run to the edge of the world.”

He heaved a sigh of relief and looked at his palms. They were injured with drops of blood streaming down.

‘Such monstrous cultivation.’ Buddhist lights flashed and healed the injuries. He started thinking about how to get away.

The spectators lost interest and started leaving. This was within expectation – the half-demon giving up because it was hopeless.

Lord Kong Hou and Lord Fu Ying entered the courtyard. They had a serious expression as they asked Feiyun to return to the half-demon alliance to see Lord Qing Ji.

He thought for a moment before nodding. Once he got back, he came to see Lord Qing Ji. The other seventh-ranked half-demons were present as well.

The summon had alarmed the upper echelon. Each member had a monstrous aura but Feiyun wasn’t afraid at all.

“Greetings, My Lords.” He said calmly.

“Being summoned by the deity is an honor, why did you refuse?” Lord Qing Ji asked.

“Why would the great deity summon a lowly half-demon such as myself? I feel like there is something else going on.” He answered.

“Do you think Aquamoon Saintess faked an order?” A different half-demon asked.

“I… do not dare to speculate on this issue.” He said.

The others slightly frowned. The questioner thought that he was out of place for suspecting the saintess. 

“The deity has great abilities. Perhaps she has seen the future and this is a great opportunity for you. Maybe you will even break the curse, you must seize it.” Lord Qing Ji said.

“I understand.” 

“Good, leave now.” 

Feiyun left and the half-demons began talking about this matter.

“So do you think this has to do with divination?” Lord Kong Hou spoke.

“Perhaps the deity wants to improve our status and is picking him to train.” 

“Feng Feiyun’s talent exceeded other half-demons, quite rare in history. Maybe this is why.”

“Have you all never thought about Feiyun’s bloodline? We couldn’t analyze it, maybe he has the bloodline of an immemorial sacred demon.” Lord Qing Ji brought this up.

The others took a deep breath and thought that this was possible. If Feiyun’s mother was a big shot from a sacred demon race, this might be enough to attract the interest of the deity.

“Our mistake. We should have figured this out long ago. I will bring his blood to the main branch right now in order to figure out his race. Keep him here, don’t let the saintess take him to Aquamoon Paradise.” Lord Fu Ying thought that this matter might be more serious than expected.

The top powers in Crimson Territory might be paying attention to this. Many experts must be watching them.

“The road might not be safe, exercise caution.” Lord Qing Ji said.

“I will go with him.” Lord Kong Hou said.

“I will talk with the alliance lord about this.” Lord Qing Ji left as well.

***

Today, many experts thought about this recent development. Feiyun’s name was repeated across the entire territory.

“The first genius to be summoned by the deity, a half-demon…”

Even the wisdom masters had no idea what was going on. Those who had contact with Feiyun were summoned by their seniors for questioning.

***

Meanwhile, Feiyun stayed at the alliance and cultivated his beast domain. It was impossible to escape now with all the experts watching him. It was best to just focus on cultivation for now.

He already had ten thousand beasts but the majority were low-level. This limited the power of his domain.

His goal was to replace them with beasts possessing immemorial bloodlines. Because he had finished the physique before, the soul exchange was rather easy and only took one night to replace four hundred.

“Boom!” He activated the aura. The new souls were far stronger than the others and took the central area.

He punched a cliff and left behind a ten-inch mark. This cliff has been embedded with formations before. It was used to gauge power.

There were other marks on it as well, left behind by punches or weapons. They were rather shallow, the deepest was only an inch or so.

“442 times the power of a fourth-level cultivation. The successors from the noble palaces and immemorial grottos aren’t as strong as me in the same realm.” Feiyun thought that he could easily kill people one level above right now.

“Hmm, this isn’t enough to fight Xuanyuan Yiyi. I need to reach the fifth level and perfect the beast domain. Once I can do a 10,000 times attack at the fifth level, that should be enough.”

“It’s not easy to reach the fifth level, I should focus on the beast domain first.”

He was at the peak of the fourth level right now and couldn’t break through in a short time. He wanted to travel to Everlasting City again since training was useless.

He didn’t make it far out of the alliance before sensing a spatial ripple behind him. He stopped and said: “Come out now.”
