Cultivation: I Can Add Descriptors To My Body-Chapter 26
Chapter 26
In the temple, the ghostly figure crawled forward. It slowly raised its head and looked at Li Ming’s back as he left.
After Li Ming left, the aura of the human cultivator disappeared.
The ghostly figure turned its head to look at the beautiful woman. It was somewhat puzzled, wondering why the young miss had let that human cultivator leave just like that.
This did not seem in line with the character that it knew its young miss had.
Based on its young miss’ past behavior, she would not let any human leave alive.
It asked the beautiful woman curiously, “Young miss, why did you let that human cultivator go?”
The beautiful woman stood still and remained silent.
In fact, she also felt that it was very strange.
When she first saw Li Ming, she already felt that he was unordinary.
For some reason, she felt that if he died, he would definitely become a hero among ghosts.
As such, she went to Li Ming’s side right from the beginning, wanting to see and figure out where this feeling came from.
However, that group of mortals sought their own deaths.
As such, she instructed her subordinate to come out and kill all the mortals.
After that, she did not even reveal her power.
However, she saw that Li Ming continued to remain calm when facing the ghostly figure, and he was not surprised by her identity.
As such, her admiration and interest toward him grew, and then she tested him.
She did not expect the human cultivator’s answer to be so satisfactory.
She did not do anything to Li Ming until the end, and even threw him a jade slip as a sign of good karma.
In this, the first impression that he had given her played a very important role…
Of course, she would not tell her servant that she had a good impression of a human.
Faced with the ghostly figure’s confusion, the beautiful woman only casually explained, “That little scholar has a good heart and great fortune.”
“He also seems to be someone from some immortal sect. There is no need to cause trouble.”
“Yes.” The ghostly figure bowed respectfully. It would unconditionally carry out and respect the young miss’ decisions.
In fact, the ghostly figure also had felt some affinity with Li Ming.
That was why, after killing the bandits, it did not have any intention of directly attacking Li Ming.
It only continued to take orders from its young miss.
Since the young miss had let this human go, it naturally had no objection.
Meanwhile, after Li Ming walked out of the temple, his mind calmed down a little. However, his body was still drenched in cold sweat.
Just now… He had been suppressed by the demonic aura the entire time.
Without looking back, he began to run wildly in the night.
He immediately distanced himself from the two terrifying auras.
When he was passing through the forest, he infused his feet with true qi and even used the Wind Lightning Steps.
He was afraid that those two experts would change their minds.
After all, those two experts that he had just encountered were clearly not from the camp of kindhearted people.
If he was not careful, his blood might be spilled.
“Whoosh—”
Li Ming’s eyes seemed to have turned into a stream of light.
He ran until dawn.
In the direction of the rising sun, the sky was bright, and Li Ming finally stopped.
After using the Wind Lightning Steps for the entire night, his feet were sore.
He looked back and saw that he had traveled quite a great distance.
Li Ming slowly came back to his senses and felt that he was really lucky.
Thinking back, he realized that he, as a newbie cultivator, had actually been able to get out of such an encounter alive.
After all, the ghostly figure was not a kind being. It had killed every single one of the bandits without any hesitation.
And from its attitude towards the beautiful woman…
Li Ming suddenly realized that although the beautiful woman looked like a human, she was definitely not.
There was a high possibility that she was a ghost!
Li Ming had a lingering fear when he encountered two ghosts with such powerful strength.
Thinking about the difference between him and the ghost, he suddenly remembered that he had the blue entry [Ghost Hero]!
[Ghost Hero (Blue): Increases temperament, especially charm towards ghosts, allows the user to gain a good impression from ghosts.]
Increases temperament?
Li Ming thought about it. Did he give the two ghosts a good impression last night because of the increased temperament from this blue entry?
After carefully reviewing things, he finally confirmed what had happened.
It was this blue entry that made the beautiful woman’s attitude toward him so amiable.
Previously, he had thought that this entry was useless. However, it was all thanks to this entry that he was able to survive this time.
Li Ming finally understood the power of the entry.
Even those green entries had all kinds of enhancement effects.
Not to mention a blue entry, which was even greater.
“Every entry has its own use, and I should not look down on any of them.”
“I wonder what purple entry I will receive after I report the completion of the mission back at the sect?”
Thinking of this, Li Ming looked forward to obtaining the purple entry.
He touched the storage bags at his waist.
The three demons he had captured earlier were stored here.
He did not dare to stay any longer.
The situation might change if he delayed things.
Not to mention the demons, there were also other experts. This road could be said to be full of danger, so he could not relax his vigilance.
He did not have time to look at the jade slip, so he simply rushed back to the sect without rest.
Another day and night passed.
He finally saw the familiar mountain peak.
“I’m finally back…”
He had been on a mission in the outside world to hunt down demons. Although it was very exciting, he still found himself to be lacking in strength.
After Li Ming returned to the Divine Will Sect, he decided to cultivate in seclusion again.
In this ever-changing world, he was like a fish on a chopping board before he reached the foundation establishment stage.
…
At the main peak.
At the square, several senior brothers were waiting for the disciples to return to the sect to submit their reports.
They were waiting for the missions to be handed over and to escort the captured demons back into the seal.
At this moment, many disciples were walking around the square.
Among them, Li Ming saw a few familiar figures. They seemed to be here to hand in their reports as well.
A moment later, Li Ming found Senior Brother Zhang, who had issued him the mission.
After greeting him, he presented the three storage bags from his waist.
“Senior Brother Zhang, these are the three demons I caught after leaving the mountain.”
Zhang Xiaoping took the storage bags and was very happy after checking them.
“Well done.”
Although these demons were not strong, it would be troublesome for them to escape.
Fortunately, after the sect issued an urgent mission, the disciples of the sect rushed down the mountain and brought back all the demons.
Li Ming came back early to hand in the task.
Some of the disciples and some of the others would probably only return to hand in their missions after a few months.
Zhang Xiaoping looked at Li Ming and asked with concern, “Junior Brother Li, you look so pale. Did you encounter some danger?”
Li Ming rushed through the night without resting. Even with his strong physique, he had some difficulty handling the high-intensity journey.
However, there was no need to mention this.
“I just made haste on the road. It’s no big deal.”
Zhang Xiaoping did not think too much about it. After comforting him, he explained, “This was an urgent mission issued by the sect. Since you have completed your mission, you should go and collect the mission merit points first.”
“By the way, the merit points for this mission are different from spirit stones. They can only be used within the sect.”
“Thank you, senior brother,” Li Ming nodded.
After that, he received his mission merit points according to Senior Brother Zhang’s instructions.
These merit points could be exchanged for medicinal pills, spiritual liquid, and even magical artifacts.
Compared to buying from the market, the quality of the sect’s products was naturally more guaranteed.
And so, Li Ming went and logged the completion of his mission and collected the merit points.
The completion of the mission meant that Li Ming had made another contribution to the sect.
But in the end, for Li Ming, the merit points were secondary.
What excited Li Ming the most was the purple entry he would obtain after completing the mission.
