Cultivation Starting from Full Talent-Chapter 164 - 162: Elite of the Human Clan

Chapter 164 -162: Elite of the Human Clan

“Wait…”

Just as the Silver Fox Young Master’s soul was almost half crushed, Ning Daoran suddenly remembered something and immediately stopped the soul refining process in the Soul Refining Tower.

“Ning Daoran!”

At this point, the soul of the Silver Fox Young Master was severely damaged, and he was somewhat delirious.

But he still fiercely said, “Have you finally come to your senses, realizing that my Silver Fox Clan cannot be offended so easily?”

“That’s not it.”

Ning Daoran explained, “I almost forgot to perform a Soul Search first.”

“What?”

The Silver Fox Young Master was shocked and then burst out cursing fiercely, “Ning Daoran, I ##%￥@@￥*…&#@￥…”

…

Ning Daoran ignored the colorful curses emanating from the Soul Refining Tower.

He directly raised his hand, collected the flags and array plate of the Water Cloud Golden Bamboo Sword Formation, and also took the silver bead left behind by the Silver Fox Young Master into his Storage Ring.

Afterwards, he burned the corpse that had reverted to Meng Xiao’s appearance back into ashes, and then, along with Big Stupid Deer who had just arrived at the scene, they escaped using the Earth Escape.

During the process of escaping, he initiated the Soul Search on the Silver Fox Young Master.

With this search, many things became clear.

In the fragmented memories of the young master, an exquisitely beautiful figure appeared.

It was a woman, possessing a face that could topple nations and grace unmatched in her generation, her enchanting figure clad in a white leather skirt, with a voice extremely soft, red lips and white teeth, absolutely captivating.

However, the sight of her pulling off the head of the Silver Fox Clan’s Great Elder from his neck was quite frightening.

This woman was none other than the White Sheep Demon King!

Ning Daoran was slightly shocked, not expecting that the one who had transformed from the Feng Valley White Sheep was a woman, and such a stunningly beautiful one at that.

Thus, it was understandable why the Silver Fox Clan had initiated the beast tide and invaded the territories of the Human Clan’s Immortal Cultivation World.

The White Sheep Demon King was constantly expanding her territory. The Silver Fox Clan either had to submit or leave, and clearly, they chose to leave, relocating their entire clan and ultimately starting a war with the Human Clan’s Immortal Cultivation World at the border.

As for possessing Meng Xiao, it was merely a whim of the Silver Fox Young Master, not much of a premeditated plan.

Moreover, from his memories, Ning Daoran now knew the main force behind this beast tide.

It comprised mainly the Silver Fox Young Master himself and a Golden Core Middle Stage Lady Jin Hua, an old fox with golden fur, whose cultivation was profoundly deep.

Not worrying much about that now,

Ning Daoran frowned slightly, since for the Chaotic Sect, his status as “Early-stage Foundation Establishment” was merely that of a small soldier.

Destroying the Silver Fox Young Master had already established a tremendous merit.

But it was a merit he could not claim; claiming it would bring great trouble, though it would bring prestige in public, it was easy to be tragically cut down midway.

Moreover, the silver bead left behind by the Silver Fox Young Master turned out to be a treasure, known as the “Forbidden Breaking Pearl,” a Third-tier top-grade magic treasure.

This was a “functional” magic treasure, highly effective in suppressing prohibitions, arrays, and illusion realms.

Using the Forbidden Breaking Pearl, along with Forbidden Breaking Talismans and the methods of a Third-tier Array Master to unlock prohibitions and breach arrays would certainly be like having divine assistance.

What a great item!

Ning Daoran quickly placed the Forbidden Breaking Pearl in a more important position inside his Storage Ring, alongside the Lingxiao Mist Dream Bracelet, Spirit Cage Silk, Soul Refining Tower, and Chi Long Ding—his top ultimate reserves!

At dawn, when Ning Daoran returned to the camp, the eastern sky was just showing the first light of day.

He directly stored his Paper Substitute in his Storage Bag and began to meditate with Big Stupid Deer inside the tent.

As for the events of last night, they were all irrelevant to him.

As for the Soul Refining Tower, the soul of the Silver Soul Young Master had already been refined away, turned into a wisp of dust within the tower.

After the refining, the Soul Refining Tower became filled with essence qi.

Ning Daoran couldn’t help but exclaim in admiration; the more souls the Soul Refining Tower refined, the stronger it became, and perhaps it could even evolve into a higher-grade magical treasure in the future!

…

In the distant woods.

Demon Clan camp, multiple bonfires burning.

“This is bad, how could this happen…”

Lady Jin Hua, looking at the soul token in her hand shattered into several pieces, became completely lost in a daze for a moment.

“Young Master… the Young Master is dead, who killed the Young Master…”

Lady Jin Hua’s gaze was vacant, “With the Young Master dead, how could the Great King and the Queen possibly spare me…”

For a moment, Lady Jin Hua’s eyes filled with blood, her anger visibly rising.

Then, with a sharp and piercing howl that echoed throughout the entire valley,

“Damn the Human Clan, they actually killed the Silver Fox Clan’s Young Master, this enmity is irreconcilable! All members of the Demon Clan, listen well, launch a full attack immediately, and exterminate this group of despicable Human Clan Cultivators, avenge the Young Master!”

“Oooh ooh ooh~~~”

In the mountains, a constant sound of beast roaring ensued.

…

Early in the morning.

The sounds of a great battle drifted from afar.

Ning Daoran stepped out from the Spirit Garden Cave Heaven, having completed the refinement of the Forbidden Breaking Pearl, which was now his treasure.

The fierce attack by the Demon Clan was also within his expectations.

The death of the Silver Fox Clan’s Young Master was a major incident, so significant that not even Lady Jin Hua could cover it up without resorting to a bloody fight to mask everything.

Only in this way could Lady Jin Hua have a chance to survive.

Otherwise, if the Golden Core Mid-stage Demon King and the Golden Core Early-stage Demon Queen truly caused trouble, even two Lady Jin Huas tied together wouldn’t be enough to settle the matter.

“I don’t know why, but the Demon Clan has been attacking madly since early this morning, clamoring about avenging the Young Master…”

Xiao Ze held a pile of array materials and said, “Martial Uncle Ning, do you know what happened?”

“I do not.”

Ning Daoran shook his head. “I’m like you all; I have never left the camp, so how would I know what has happened?”

“That’s true.”

Another Qi Refining Ninth Level disciple said, “There’s another thing. Since late last night, no one has seen Martial Uncle Meng Xiao. It’s as if he vanished into thin air.

A Foundation Establishment Martial Uncle who is skilled in tracking secret techniques found that Martial Uncle Meng’s aura appeared hundreds of miles southwest, where there were traces of a battle…”

“Yes, I’ve also heard about this.”

A female disciple skilled in the Array Path pursed her red lips and said, “It’s said that that’s where Martial Uncle Meng’s aura disappeared, and furthermore, there was a strong presence of Demon Qi, seemingly that of a Third-tier Early Stage Demon…”

“Could it be…”

Xiao Ze faltered. “Martial Uncle Meng Xiao disappeared from the human world, and the Silver Fox Clan’s Young Master, also a Third-tier Great Demon, was killed last night. Could it be… could it be…”

His face turned pale as he lowered his voice, “Could it be that it was our Chaotic Sect’s top True Inheritor, Martial Uncle Meng, who fought to the death with the Silver Fox Young Master in a fierce battle southwest during the night?”

“Shush!”

The female disciple said, “Senior Brother Xiao, I heard several Foundation Establishment Martial Uncles saying the same thing.”

She seemed somewhat sad as she spoke in a deep tone, “Although Martial Uncle Meng Xiao was indeed a bit overbearing, and had an average reputation within the Sect, he was never ambiguous about killing demons. This incident… truly fits Martial Uncle Meng’s typical behavior…”

“Shush, keep your voice down.”

Xiao Ze’s expression became grave. “This matter has not yet been confirmed by the Sect, and the Great Elder is currently leading a search for Martial Uncle Meng’s whereabouts. It’s best not to talk about this.”

“Exactly.”

Ning Daoran said, “We should just do our duties well. The higher-ups in the Sect will handle the rest.”

The sourc𝗲 of this content is freēwēbηovel.c૦m.

“Yes, yes, yes, Martial Uncle Ning is absolutely right!”

The female disciple smiled brightly, preferring Martial Uncle Ning in front of her to Meng Xiao.

Martial Uncle Ning not only looked young but also had a very easy-going personality. It was just unfortunate that it was rumored within the Sect that he disliked women and preferred to spend all his time with spiritual beasts…

Eh~~~ A bit weird~~~

Thinking this, the female disciple turned away to attend to her tasks, her slight fondness for Ning Daoran dissipating in that moment.

…

Several days later.

Although the frontline battlefield was still fiercely contested, the whereabouts of Meng Xiao were finally uncovered.

Someone discovered a fragment of a spiritual artifact belonging to Meng Xiao in a battle-scarred area southwest, an artifact that Gongyang Yan had once given to Meng Xiao, which was left behind.

Then, a Foundation Establishment Elder skilled in Soul Techniques went to investigate and found a remnant of Meng Xiao’s soul along with remnants of the Demon Soul’s aura.

Unsurprisingly, it was the residual soul of the Silver Fox Young Master.

For a moment, Gongyang Yan was overwhelmed with tears.

The misery of an elder burying a younger person, nothing can be more heartbreaking.

Gongyang Yan had long intended for Meng Xiao to inherit his mantle. This disciple was courageous and diligent, with far superior talent compared to others like Lin Sheng, destined to greatly advance True Yang Furnace Technique and True Yang Peak, and he had a high likelihood of directly inheriting the Sect Master position.

Thus, the Chaotic Sect, after hundreds of years, was about to welcome its first male Sect Master in centuries, altering its former state of declining masculine influence!

However, who could have imagined that such an exceptional and unparalleled talent like Meng Xiao would perish during the Late-stage Foundation Establishment, just a step away from Core Formation!

“Ah ah ah ah~~~”

Thinking of this, Gongyang Yan cried heartbreakingly, stamping his feet and beating his chest.

“My disciple!”

He wiped away his tears and said, “Fighting beyond your level, you died together with a Third-tier Demon Beast, you did not waste my careful guidance.

But my poor disciple, you died so young, never even having experienced a woman’s touch before leaving me…

Disciple, you died fighting for the Human Clan’s Immortal Cultivation World, your sacrifice was noble, and you truly were a young elite of our Human Clan’s Immortal Cultivation World. I will surely have your robes buried in the Sect ancestral cemetery and give you a grand funeral!”

“Sigh…”

Ning Daoran comforted him, “My senior master, don’t be too sad. Martial Brother Meng fighting beyond his level and dying together with the Demon King means his life was brilliant; we, as his brothers, are all proud of him!”

“Alas!”

Gongyang Yan slapped his thigh, annoyed. “Martial Nephew Ning, you truly have a way with words, speaking right to my heart, unlike that boy Lin Sheng who actually said that Meng Xiao and the Silver Soul Young Master died together, trading Foundation Establishment for Golden Core, that actually, we profited and should be happy…”

Ning Daoran inwardly exclaimed in admiration, not surprised at all that Senior Brother Lin Sheng could say such a thing.

Of course, while brash, the logic was sound—it just wasn’t something one would say openly, as it would be like rubbing salt into an old man’s wounds.
