Cultivating With Mutated Heavenly Spirit Roots-Chapter 89: Disbelief

"Boom!"

Just as Fang Hong was searching for Demonic Beasts, a large patch of dark clouds gathered in the sky above him, electricity flickered within the clouds, and occasionally, loud thunder rumbled.

Fang Hong looked up at the sky, his expression slightly changed, and a hint of doubt arose in his heart.

He vaguely felt that these dark clouds were not an ordinary celestial phenomenon, but rather like some special power brewing a change.

Fang Hong tapped his toes, and his figure soared into the sky, looking into the distance.

He was surprised to find a large area of strange phenomena in the sky dozens of miles away; the sky was terribly gloomy, and the lightning in the dark clouds flashed incessantly.

"Could it be! A Level 7 Demonic Beast Undergoing Tribulation to take human form?!" Fang Hong frowned, surprised.

Such a heaven and earth phenomenon was extremely similar to the Demonic Beast advancement Lightning Tribulation recorded in ancient texts.

According to the texts, for a Level 7 Demonic Beast to advance to a Level 8 Demon Beast, it must pass a minor Lightning Tribulation, which is called the "Form Transformation Tribulation."

Once a Demonic Beast passes this Tribulation, it can initially transform into human form, its intelligence will greatly increase, its strength will surge, and it will enter the ranks of true Great Demons.

Once this step is crossed, not only will its Cultivation speed double, and its demon blood become purer, but even a Nascent Soul Early Stage cultivator of the same level would find it difficult to suppress it; its combat power would be comparable to the elite among human powerhouses.

Thinking of this, Fang Hong’s heart stirred slightly.

He slowly descended to the ground, and after a moment of thought, decided to personally go to the center of the anomaly to investigate.

If it really was a Demonic Beast Undergoing Tribulation, perhaps he could launch a sneak attack at a critical moment, killing it when it was unprepared, and obtain a precious Level 7 spirit pill!

With this thought, he quietly ran towards the source of the celestial anomaly...

Before long, Fang Hong arrived at the source of the anomaly and used the Shadow Divine Art to conceal himself nearby, hiding his aura and observing carefully.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Suddenly, violent Magic Power fluctuations came from the sky. Fang Hong’s gaze sharpened, and he saw two figures fiercely battling in mid-air.

One of them was a Blue Robed Old Man, his figure suspended in the air, his body surging with Magic Power, his aura powerful, clearly a Nascent Soul Early Stage cultivator.

The Old Man’s expression was solemn, and his methods were sharp, clearly not to be underestimated.

His opponent, however, was a giant demon bird, completely fiery red with flame-like feathers, named "Crimson Fire Beast."

This Crimson Fire Beast was a Level 6 cultivator, with a fierce aura, and by rights, should have been able to suppress the Blue Robed Old Man.

But at this moment, it appeared extremely weak, its aura chaotic, its movements sluggish, seemingly heavily injured.

Seeing this scene, Fang Hong was a little puzzled. It seemed his judgment was wrong; the anomaly in the sky was not caused by a Demonic Beast Undergoing Tribulation, but by another reason.

This battle before him was clearly the Blue Robed Old Man attempting to kill the Crimson Fire Beast while it was weak.

Fang Hong used the Shadow Divine Art, quietly lurking nearby, secretly delighted in his heart. This Crimson Fire Beast was also something he currently needed.

Because within these three months, he had already collected Level 6 demon blood of gold, wood, and water elements. If he could also obtain the Crimson Fire Beast’s demon blood, he could strengthen his Four Symbols Formation again.

Thinking of this, Fang Hong was in no hurry. He patiently waited nearby, intending to reap the benefits once the Blue Robed Old Man and it were both severely injured...

"Buzz!"

The Blue Robed Old Man’s expression was solemn. He lightly patted the Spiritual Beast Bag at his waist, and two beams of white light shot out, transforming into two giant mosquito-like demon insects.

They were entirely white, with large bodies, and as their wings flapped, they created gusts of whistling wind. They were clearly two Level 5 Demonic Beasts, named "White Snow Mosquito."

"Two Level 5 Spiritual Beasts... Could this Old Man be an Elder of the Beast Taming Sect?" Fang Hong secretly guessed when he saw the White Snow Mosquito.

"Woo woo woo..."

The White Snow Mosquito received their master’s attack command, emitting excited strange cries, constantly flapping their wings, and streams of grey fog rushed towards the Crimson Fire Beast.

Seeing this, the Crimson Fire Beast was greatly annoyed and spewed out intense flames from its mouth to block the grey fog attack.

If it were in its usual state, these two insects would never dare to provoke it, but unfortunately, it was in poor condition now and could only be forced to confront them.

"Puff puff puff!"

The battle grew fiercer, the Crimson Fire Beast retreated steadily, its flames weakening, its body swaying repeatedly.

Seeing this, the Blue Robed Old Man sat cross-legged in mid-air, forming hand seals, and summoned a long zither, entirely white, which was his Lifebound Treasure.

He lightly plucked the strings, and immediately, sound waves like blades transformed into sharp wind blades, sweeping around the Crimson Fire Beast.

"Pfft!"

As the wind blades struck, the Crimson Fire Beast’s body was covered in bloodstains, its feathers falling off. It finally could not hold on and plummeted from the sky, crashing to the ground.

The two White Snow Mosquito seized the opportunity to pounce, one on the left and one on the right, their sharp stingers simultaneously piercing the Crimson Fire Beast’s neck.

"Caw!!"

The Crimson Fire Beast let out a tragic, long cry, its eyes wide open. After struggling for a moment, it finally died, falling into a pool of blood, its wings devoid of their former brilliance.

The Blue Robed Old Man retrieved his Spiritual Treasure, landed beside the Crimson Fire Beast’s corpse, and nodded with satisfaction: "You two did well."

After speaking, he put the two White Snow Mosquito back into his Spiritual Beast Bag, then took out a small knife and began to process the Crimson Fire Beast’s corpse.

The Blue Robed Old Man was overjoyed; the demon core of a Level 6 Demonic Beast was quite valuable, and even for him, it was usually difficult to obtain a Level 6 demon core.

"Pfft!"

Just as the Blue Robed Old Man was happily processing the corpse, suddenly, a Skeleton Staff abruptly stabbed out from behind, instantly piercing through the Blue Robed Old Man’s chest!

"Ugh... you... you!" The Blue Robed Old Man’s eyes widened. He looked down at his chest, where the grotesque skull had been stained red with blood.

At some unknown point, a strange black shadow appeared behind him. The black shadow twisted continuously, gradually transforming into Fang Hong’s appearance.

Fang Hong had succeeded in his assassination using the Shadow Divine Art. He pulled out the Skeleton Staff and kicked the Blue Robed Old Man several feet away!

"You... you... why..." The Blue Robed Old Man struggled on the ground, spitting out mouthfuls of blood, his body twitching, his expression filled with terror and unwillingness.

A dignified Core Formation cultivator was actually ambushed and killed from behind. Until his last moment, his gaze remained on the Crimson Fire Beast’s corpse, ultimately dying with his eyes wide open in disbelief...

With the death of the Blue Robed Old Man, his Golden Core space also collapsed, and the white long zither slowly floated out, becoming an ownerless object.

Fang Hong used Magic Power to shake off the blood on the Skeleton Staff, put it back into his storage bag, then quickly walked to the Blue Robed Old Man’s corpse, took the long zither Spiritual Treasure, and continued to search the corpse...

Fang Hong found a storage bag and a Spiritual Beast Bag, nothing else. He used his demon gourd to absorb the Blue Robed Old Man’s corpse, refining it into a spirit pill.

Afterward, Fang Hong began to collect the Crimson Fire Beast’s demon blood. The four types of Level 6 demon blood were finally in his hands, and his Four Symbols Formation could be strengthened by another tier...
