Huh? Isn't this an adventure kingdom building game?!-Chapter 165: Demons Compete, Demon Energy Kills Demons (Fifth Update)
Chapter 165: Chapter 165: Demons Compete, Demon Energy Kills Demons (Fifth Update)
The difference in realms was too vast, and Bai Yunqi, intending to probe the depth of the Venerable Family, unleashed the oppressive aura filled with intense battle intent from his tribulation crossing, enveloping the entire courtyard.
Yun Mo couldn’t withstand it and immediately collapsed onto the ground, trembling uncontrollably all over;
Wan Mingchuan, with his rich experience, sensed the powerful aura coming his way and eagerly sat cross-legged on the ground, starting to circulate his cultivation technique to resist.
Hu Zhile was slightly better, but still had to feign being very frightened, trembling and crawling on the ground.
Even the chickens in the poultry shed opposite didn’t make a peep, and the cattle and sheep lay down upon sensing the aura released with full force after ascending a level, realizing no one could withstand it. Bai Yunqi’s proud lips slightly curved upwards.
Just as he intended to boast a few words, he saw the Venerable Family, completely unaffected, carrying a fragrant steaming hot pot of lamb stew out from the thatched cottage, shouting, "Little Bai, stop teasing them. Come over quickly, and I’ll introduce you to a new temporary member, and to celebrate your successful tribulation and elevation, I’ll set up Little Xiang Mountain for you later!"
Even after leveling up, Bai Yunqi couldn’t turn the tide, but upon hearing the words "Xiang Mountain," his earlier unhappiness was immediately replaced with a broad smile, "Thank you, Venerable Family! Also, thanks to the Spirit Core Pill you provided, it helped greatly!"
Jiang Yuan, putting down the lamb stew, wiped his hands and laughed, "Glad it was useful. I’ll prepare more for everyone next time."
Is he truly an alchemist?
Hu Zhile was full of doubt, though the white snake was formidable, it addressed the young master as "Venerable Family," a title used by family immortals;
The boy who kept calling out "master" was undoubtedly his apprentice;
The bald eagle calling him "sir" revealed little about their relationship, yet everyone, including all demon cultivators and humans, followed the young master’s lead.
No hidden mastermind, no ghost or demon cultivator, how could he possess the items belonging to the goddess?
Did he obtain them through some channel?
Why would a human cultivator require specially crafted heart, liver, and lungs? Those are materials for creating corpse ghosts, or perhaps needed by ghost or demon cultivators using extreme methods to strengthen themselves. It’s truly puzzling for the fox to comprehend.
"Brother Long, could you add more pressure and not retract it all!"
Wan Mingchuan, noticing the aura was indeed retracted completely, shouted, "I found cultivating under your pressure quite effective, especially when my Spiritual Power inside is almost shocked into immobility. Absorbing the spiritual energy from Spirit Stones to cultivate at this time feels exhilarating!"
Yun Mo: ...
Is he out of his mind?
Clearly, the senior’s pressure was so strong that even breathing almost ceased, and it was agonizingly unbearable, how could he still cultivate under it?
Hu Zhile also looked over in shock, goodness! Someone is being harsher on themselves to cultivate!
"Exhilarating?" Bai Yunqi intended to probe the Venerable Family but failed again, unexpectedly, there’s a tough little guy here who finds the pressure exhilarating?
His slit pupils narrowed slightly, a more terrifying pressure directly enveloped Wan Mingchuan. The next moment, the little guy’s face turned slightly red, veins bulging on his neck, clearly gasping for breath.
Nevertheless, Wan Mingchuan still held his breath, instantly absorbing the Spirit Stone in his hand into powder, as the surging energy rampaged through his meridians, relentlessly climbing without being crushed to the ground.
Though slightly hunched, he still sat cross-legged with a decent posture.
Seeing this, Bai Yunqi retracted his divine power, worried he might genuinely injure him internally. Only then did Wan Mingchuan catch his breath, breathing heavily a few times, face full of excitement, "Brother Long, you’re too powerful, just now I felt like a mountain was pressing down on me! Just a bit too strong, I think I can’t quite handle it."
Jiang Yuan had never felt any pressure, only imagined what it might be like, possibly a dual mental and physical blow caused by overwhelming force. Unexpectedly, his apprentice enjoyed this self-torture style of cultivation...
"Venerable Family, where did you pick it from?" After landing, Bai Yunqi surveyed the fox of the same color scheme as himself, despite it being in original form rather than human, the white fox naturally exuded charm.
Jiang Yuan answered frankly, "Market. She seemed to be hunted by someone, so I brought her back out of pity."
"Oh?!" Bai Yunqi investigated several times, deducing that the other party likely possessed a magical treasure concealing aura, making judgement murky, but seemingly was just a little demon cultivator yet to achieve Foundation Establishment, easily subdued with a flick of the tail.
"What’s your name? Where do you live, and who was hunting you why?"
"My name is Hu Zhile, I’m a Snow Mountain Fox Demon." Hu Zhile pretended uneasily, shifting her paws obediently in reply, "Captured by unscrupulous merchants due to my low cultivation, brought to the market’s black market to be sold as a slave. I escaped as the market was closing, luckily this kind-hearted young master took me in."
The young master thought to himself, you are quite inventive with your words, since you mentioned I’m kind for taking you in, at least boost some goodwill!
Snow Mountain Fox Demon? Never heard of it, Bai Yunqi frowned slightly and continued asking, "Can you shapeshift? What can you do? Our little courtyard doesn’t accommodate freeloaders, plus your background is unclear, the Venerable Family kindly lets you stay temporarily out of goodwill, you must show some sincerity."
Hu Zhile stole glances at the target, never expecting she barged into not a dragon’s lair, but a small courtyard with peculiar, complicated members.
To investigate the items on the young master, she had to find ways to stay here temporarily, couldn’t confront the snake nor gauge the young master’s depth, couldn’t act rashly.
"I can do many things." She pondered briefly, appearing timid, wrapping herself with the snow-white fluffy big tail, twisting her body to transform instantly into human form.
Yet for a clumsy guise, mismatched realm, while seeking affection, she deliberately retained the furry white large ears; under the pale blue dress she flaunted a fluffy fox tail.
"Wow!" Wan Mingchuan saw a fox spirit transform for the first time, turning into a girl with a willow waist, sharp shoulders, abundant bosom, and alluring features, instantly overwhelmed.
The key was she hadn’t fully transformed, left with large ears, a snowy tail tuft tempting to be petted.
"Thank you, young master, for your kindness in taking me in, I can serve tea, do laundry, cook meals, or..." she said sweetly, gazing as she curtsied, "or clean the yard, tidy the vegetable garden."
Yun Mo originally thought it was another yet-to-reach Foundation Establishment figure, no matter how cute and fluffy, it wouldn’t affect his own Foundation Establishment Fourth Layer status, but unexpectedly, the other could perform Transformation Technique!
Though not perfect, she was a refreshing, fair, delicate, lovely maiden!
Moreover, she could act coy, cook meals, wash clothes, use her dewy big eyes to look innocently at Mr. Jiang, what can I compare that with?!
Yun Mo felt like crying with no tears, a fox compared to a fox is deadlier to a fox!
"Since you’re here, be at ease, come join us for breakfast." Jiang Yuan truly didn’t anticipate suddenly seeing a real-life version of a fox-eared girl.
This fluffy big ears, this soft and smooth fluffy tail, clearly the tactile sensation must be superb!
Rubbing his fingers, giving up the thought of stroking, he secretly pondered whether, by boosting goodwill to three hearts, he could satisfy his curiosity and touch it?
