“This is Buzhou Mountain,” Xu Chang said.
“The corpse Qi here is very strong.” Xiao Xiaodong said.
Xiao Xiaofu turned to Chen Xu, “Chen Xu, can your demonic beast absorb more corpse Qi?”
Chen Xu glanced at the small octopus, which lay on his shoulder, panting. It was full.
The little pheasant giggled and said confidently, “This lame duck can’t help anymore. Look at me.”
It opened its mouth and sucked. The rich corpse Qi gushed into its mouth like a tornado.
Xiao Xiaodong frowned and thought to himself, “The pheasant is indeed extraordinary.” The corpse Qi disappeared instantly, and he guessed the pheasant had taken in ten times the amount of the Qi that the octopus absorbed.
The small octopus blinked and looked at the pheasant with curiosity.
Xu Chang frowned and said, “Mr. Xiao, your pet might turn into a zombie if it takes in too much corpse Qi. Please be careful.” Xu Chang couldn’t help but say.
Xiao Xiaodong glanced at the pheasant, which was flapping its wings arrogantly.
“It’s fine. It knows what it’s doing,” Xiao Xiaodong said.
Xu Chang found it weird, thinking, “What does a pheasant know? But it is strange of it to absorb corpse Qi.”
…
“Someone is there,” Chen Xu said on full alert.
Xiao Xiaodong looked into the distance. “There are three Gold Cores. The way they breathe is very strange. They might be from Sacred Sect.”
Chen Xu turned to Xu Chang and said, “Since there are a total of three Gold Cores, we can each deal with one.”
“Okay.” Xu Chang willed himself to agree. If the corpse Qi spread, the Xu family would not be able to survive. He had to fight the battle.
The pheasant absorbed all the corpse Qi, which caught the enemy’s attention.
“They’re coming,” Xiao Xiaodong said.
At sight of the three cultivators in black leading a group of Foundation Establishments, Xiao Xiaodong threw out several Thunder Flame discs and stopped them. After that, he attacked one of the Golden Cores with his sword.
Chen Xu was quick as well. He threw out three swords and attacked another Golden Core.
They left the last Golden Core to Xu Chang.
After Xu Chang fought with the enemy for a while, he exclaimed in surprise, “Zhao Jin Xiong.”
The pheasant turned into a flood dragon and threw the enemy away.
“How can you get distracted in such a dangerous situation?” The pheasant said to Xu Chang with disdain.
Xu Chang was glad that he was saved, but he blushed in embarrassment. He didn’t do it on purpose. He was so shocked to see Zhao Jinxiong, who died forty years ago, that he forgot to fight.
Xu Chang was surprised that the pheasant easily threw Zhao Jinxiong away, who was not easy to deal with.
As the pheasant fought with Zhao Jinxiong, Xu Chang’s pressure lessened greatly.
He looked at Xiao Xiaodong and Chen Xu, both of whom were attacking fiercely. Their moves might not look beautiful, but they were deadly. He could tell they had practiced their attacks in extremely dangerous situations.
The palm-sized octopus turned into a hill, and it got one Foundation Establishment cultivator on each of its three tentacles.
Its tentacles seemed to create a special substance, which corroded the cultivators into liquids.
When he thought of the purpose of this trip, Xu Chang did not dare to delay and joined the battle.
Xiao Xiaodong’s little pheasant extended its claws and tore Zhao Jinxiong into two halves.
The demonic beasts of Xiao Xiaodong and Chen Xu were so powerful that Xu Chang didn’t need to do much, and the battle was easily ended.
Xu Chang felt complicated. This time he went out of seclusion to make friends with Xiao Xiaodong and Chen Xu as well as solving the problem of corpse Qi.
Soon, Xiao Xiaodong and Chen Xu ended their battles as well.
Xiao Xiaodong glanced at Xu Chang calmly, who felt embarrassed. Although he was also a Golden Core, he didn’t help much for he had made a mistake when he was shocked.
“Mr. Xu, I heard you call that man Zhao Jinxiong. Do you know him?” asked Xiao Xiaodong.
“Didn’t Zhao Jinxiong die decades ago?” Chen Xu muttered.
Xiao Xiaodong turned to Chen Xu and asked, “Are you sure he has died for decades?”
Chen Xu nodded and said, “Yes, to be sure.”
Xiao Xiaodong got nervous. His father met a ‘dead’ Nascent Soul, and they met a ‘dead’ Golden Core. This was not an accident.
He has looked it up in the ancient books. Scared Sect Door was able to develop rapidly in the past because it tempted the Golden Cores and Nascent Souls who were dying with the possibility of prolonging their life.
Xiao Xiaodong looked at the cave in Buzhou Mountain and said, “It’s unusual to find three Golden Core cultivators here. They must be arranging something in the mountain. Let’s go and take a look.”
Chen Xu nodded and replied, “Okay.”
