Chapter 84: Unexpected Encounter, Golden Core Itinerant Cultivator?
“Don’t just stand there, move out immediately! Otherwise, if that tenth layer Golden Core great demon catches up, we will definitely not be its match.”
At this point, what else could this group of people say?
Fortunately, they were all Immortal cultivators, and none of their cultivation levels were lower than the Qi Refinement stage.
As long as their cultivation was above the Qi Refinement stage, they could fly on swords.
After all, the purpose of their trip to Qinghe County was to thoroughly investigate the demon cultivators of Sacred Heart Palace.
How could they send some weak people?
There were a total of six people in this group. The strongest one was a taciturn old man in black who had not said a word until now. His cultivation was at the fifth layer of the Golden Core stage.
The weakest one was the middle-aged man from before. He looked like a civil servant.
His cultivation was only at the first level of the Foundation Establishment stage.
The first level of the Foundation Establishment stage was definitely very strong in Qinghe County, but in a place like the State Capital, it was just so-so!
The group of people immediately took out their flying swords.
Flying swords!
The black-clothed old man who was at the fifth level of the Golden Core stage was at the front. With his speed, he could quickly reach Qinghe County. However, he needed to protect his highness, so he could only slow down his flying sword.
......
The woman who was addressed as ‘Your Highness’ was in the second position. She didn’t look very old, only about 20 years old.
However, she actually already had the cultivation of the second level of the Foundation Establishment stage, and her talent was astonishing.
The other four followed at the back.
Time passed by.
When night fell, the middle-aged official with the weakest cultivation had already turned somewhat pale. It was obvious that he had used up too much spirit energy. He hurriedly shouted, “Wait... Wait, Your Highness... Your Highness! This humble subject really can’t hold on any longer. If we continue to rush forward like this, we will fall down.”
In the end, the group went down to rest for a while. There was no one else who could be in such a sorry state for a group of Immortal cultivators.
There was nothing they could do.
After all, they had just escaped from the ‘tiger’s mouth’ not long ago, and they did not want to fall into a dangerous situation again.
Naturally, they ran as fast as they could and ran as far as they could.
They landed in a deep valley. There was nothing else but concealment here.
As Immortal cultivators, they were not afraid of any poisonous insects or wild beasts. They only needed to be careful of demonic beasts.
There were quite a number of demonic beasts in this desolate mountain.
The few of them swallowed a few medicinal pills. They sat cross-legged to recover their spiritual energy.
Only the strongest black-clothed old man was constantly paying attention to the surrounding movements. His spiritual sense was constantly exploring dangerous existences.
Heo only had one mission — to protect the safety of Her Highness the princess.
That’s right!
The woman who was called ‘Her Highness’ was that important figure from the Imperial City!
She was the Princess of the dynasty!
As for why she would appear in the provincial capital? Why was she involved in the matters of Sacred Heart Palace?
That was something only the group of them knew.
“Oh?”
Suddenly!
The expression of the black-robed old man suddenly changed. He, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke. “Your Highness, there’s movement!”
As soon as he finished speaking.
Everyone immediately became vigilant. They were already somewhat suspicious.
They were afraid that the great demon had really caught up.
The Princess frowned and asked, “Is it a demonic beast?”
The black-clothed old man pondered for a moment, as if he was confirming something. Then, he shook his head. “It’s not that great demon, nor is it another demonic beast... this aura looks more like an Immortal cultivator like us.”
His expression was somewhat solemn. “Moreover, the other party is very strong. This old servant actually can’t see through his cultivation!”
Hiss–
After listening, other than Her Highness the Princess, the others immediately sucked in a cold breath.
They were very clear about the black-clothed old man’s strength.
Even a fifth level Golden Core could not see the cultivation of the person? Then didn’t that mean that the other party was also a Golden Core?
Even above the fifth level Golden Core?
The middle-aged official could not help but guess, “Perhaps, it’s just an ordinary person?”
The black-clothed old man glanced at him expressionlessly, not wanting to explain too much to the fool.
The Princess said softly, “How would an ordinary person dare to step into such a deep mountain forest?”
She asked again, “Is the other party coming towards us?”
The black-clothed old man nodded.
“Don’t act rashly.” The Princess said, “Perhaps the other party just happened to pass by. If we reveal our enmity without any explanation, I’m afraid that we will provoke a powerful enemy for no reason.”
“There are powerful enemies in front and powerful demonic beasts behind us. This will only push us into a dead end, and we won’t be able to extricate ourselves.”
She seemed to be very rational.
Her words were also very effective.
Everyone nodded.
...
When the black-clothed old man discovered an unfamiliar expert, Bai Yi, who was controlling the Golden Core Puppet to fly in the air, also discovered that there was actually a group of Immortal cultivators in these desolate mountains.
He did not know if the Human Puppet had been optimized by the Immortal Cultivation Simulator, but Bai Yi discovered that the Golden Core Human Puppet he obtained actually did not have a control distance limit.
He could put the Golden Core Human Puppet as far as he wanted.
He would not lose control because of distance.
In order to allow the Human Puppet to have sufficient endurance, Bai Yi also hung a storage bag on the Human Puppet, and the storage bag contained a large number of middle-grade spirit stones.
At the same time, Bai Yi also put the “Blood Pearl”, a Spirit Tool, into this storage bag.
Otherwise, the Human Puppet would have no Spirit Tool to use, right?
It could not possibly fight with two fists, right?
“Strange...” Bai Yi, who was far away in Qinghe County, could use the perspective of the Human Puppet to see some scenes in his mind. He raised his eyebrows. “So many Foundation Establishment cultivators? And there’s one whose cultivation can’t be seen. Could it be a Golden Core?”
His first thought was that they were the demon cultivators of Sacred Heart Palace, but upon closer inspection, it did not seem like it.
The other party did not have the repulsive aura of a demon cultivator.
On the contrary...
With the help of the spiritual perception range of the Human Puppet, Bai Yi sensed that there was a person among this group of people with a very strange aura.
It was filled with a feeling of looking down on the world.
“The Royal Family?”
Bai Yi was not unfamiliar with this aura.
When Chen Qianxue was simulating Immortal cultivation, she also had this special aura.
This was because she had been tainted by the imperial aura for a long time.
Bai Yi suddenly thought of the words that Bi Xu, the Guest Minister of the county office, had said to him.
‘... someone from the provincial capital.’
‘... an important figure of the Imperial City.’
His expression was slightly strange. He had... met someone from the provincial capital?
What a coincidence!
Bai Yi knew that the dynasty he was in was called the ‘Great Yan Dynasty’. In this huge dynasty, Qinghe County was just a drop in the ocean.
It was said that there was once a Golden Core stage Immortal cultivator who tried to fly across the entire Great Yan dynasty.
In the end, he flew for a whole month without sleep or rest, but he still could not reach the border of the dynasty.
Bai Yi didd not know whether this was true or false, but since it could be spread to Qinghe County...
Then it meant that there was still a bit of credibility.
It was just that he did not know whether that important figure from the Imperial City was a Princess.
Or perhaps it was a prince? Or the Emperor’s great-grandson?
At this time, a voice suddenly came from across space, “I heard that there is an Immortal cultivation sect called Spirit Sword Sect here. It is a famous sect that has existed for thousands of years. I wonder if you are from here?”
The voice did not reach Qinghe County across space, but only reached the ears of the Human Puppet.
Since he was sure that the other party had a Golden Core stage cultivator, Bai Yi also knew that it was difficult for the Human Puppet to hide.
He moved his mind.
Under the night sky, the face of the Golden Core Human Puppet standing in the air did not change, and its tone did not change much.
Its voice was low and slightly hoarse. “I am just an ordinary itinerant cultivator passing by, not from the Spirit Sword Sect.”
“...”
