"Ding dong!!"
Amidst the bloody mist filled with violent energy, the sound of a zither mysteriously rang out. The sound of the zither was extremely penetrating. Even the explosion of the Foundation Establishment cultivator's self-destruction was unable to conceal the sound. If anyone were to look, they would discover that the black-robed Di Shitian was standing in the middle of the bloody mist. His expression was cold as he held a jade zither in his left hand and plucked at the strings with his right.
As the sound of the zither spread out, rings of invisible sound waves spread out with him as the epicenter, filling an area of three meters around him. As soon as the terrifying energy from the bloody mist entered these three meters, it would be dispersed and annihilated by the rings of invisible sound waves. However, the strings on the jade zither were straight and straight. Di Shitian's eyes were filled with solemnity.
It was clear that Di Shitian was not as relaxed as he appeared to be.
"Ding dong! Ding dong!! — — "
His right hand plucked the nine strings of the zither without any pattern, causing the zither music to turn into waves of sound waves that blocked the terrifying destructive energy surging towards him. Between his fingers, traces of black light flickered continuously. The powerful demonic essence within his body continuously surged out from the Demonic Abode.
When a Foundation Establishment cultivator self-destructed, it was equivalent to reversing all of his True Essence and even his Blood Essence, exploding with ten times or even a hundred times the power. This power was filled with destruction and violence. It would destroy everything within its range that could be destroyed.
Its power was almost equivalent to the full force of a Core Formation cultivator's attack.
The difference was that a Core Formation cultivator could casually unleash this kind of power, but a Foundation Establishment cultivator had to pay the price of his life in exchange for the only chance to unleash this kind of power. The price to pay for this was directly proportional to the power of the explosion.
"Boom boom boom!!"
The bloody mist wreaked havoc for a full fifteen minutes before finally dissipating slowly.
"Ding dong!!"
Sakra once again plucked the zither strings and the invisible sound waves instantly swept away the blood mist in the surroundings like a tide.
"Mm, if a cultivator self-destructed, it would be quite frightening. A mere Foundation Establishment cultivator could actually unleash such terrifying power. I wonder if a Core Formation cultivator's self-destruction would have the destructive power of a Nascent Soul cultivator."
Di Shitian's hand turned slightly, and the jade zither turned into a ray of jade light and returned to the Demonic Abode. Looking at the scene before him, he couldn't help but be vigilant. The ground had been blasted into a huge crater large enough to bury hundreds of people. Countless cracks were densely distributed in all directions. Everything around it had been completely destroyed by the violent explosion. It caused the surrounding hundred meters to become an empty and barren land.
As if it had been completely plowed.
"Eh!!"
The blue-robed man had already perished. Just when Sakra was about to turn around and leave, suddenly, when he turned around, the corner of his eyes caught a glimmer of sparkling light. He couldn't help but stop his action of leaving. He fixed his eyes on the place where the sparkling light came from. Surprisingly, on the ground, there was a simple and unadorned jade slip that was shining with sparkling light. It was at the place where the blue-robed cultivator had self-destructed.
"The power of the explosion just now was enough to destroy the cultivator's storage pouch and everything inside. Even the storage pouch was destroyed, but this jade slip didn't suffer the slightest bit of damage. Could it be … a good item?"
In an instant, Sakra's mind began to spin rapidly. Generally, jade slips were used to store all kinds of information. For example, the most common one was to store some ancient books of cultivation, cultivation methods, or to store some kind of information and so on. This was because jade slips could store memories and information. Therefore, in the Immortal Cultivation World, this kind of jade slip had always been very common.
There were all kinds of cultivation methods and spells, but only the most basic ones. Only the basic cultivation methods of the Qi Condensation stage were recorded in books. Even ordinary people could read these ancient books and cultivate according to the methods in the ancient books. However, jade slips were different. Jade slips could store cultivation methods and information. Similarly, they required divine sense to be engraved. If one wanted to read the contents of the jade slips, they would also need to use divine sense to investigate. Some important jade slips would have various restrictions placed in order to protect the things inside.
For such jade slips with restrictions, it was often difficult to read the contents without meeting certain requirements. There were even more wonderful ones that required a certain kind of unique technique to open, and so on. There were all kinds of strange things.
Di Shitian had read about jade slips from the ancient books that cultivators carried with them. Naturally, he knew about them. It was impossible for half of the jade slips to survive the explosion just now. On the other hand, if it could survive, it meant that this jade slip was definitely not ordinary.
"Pa!!"
He walked forward and quickly picked up the jade slip on the ground. Holding the jade slip in his hand, it was warm and round, giving people an unusually warm feeling.
It was a good piece of jade!!
A thought emerged in his mind, but he immediately separated a trace of his Demon Sense and probed into the jade slip. He wanted to see what exactly was stored in the jade slip.
"This is …"
Di Shitian's face changed. As soon as his Demon Sense probed into the jade slip, he immediately felt that there seemed to be a strange space in the jade slip. On top of the jade slip were ancient seals that were constantly bobbing up and down, shining with traces of white light. As soon as his Demon Sense entered, these ancient seals immediately rushed into his mind as if they had a life of their own.
"Humph!!"
He let out a muffled groan as a wave of information that didn't belong to him rushed into his mind. This information came too quickly, causing him to feel a sharp pain in his head. While he was in pain, this external information was quickly absorbed by him. Moreover, he instantly understood the meaning of the information.
"Hoo!!"
After a while, Di Shitian opened his eyes that were previously closed. Two strange lights burst out from his eyes. The color on his face also changed quickly, looking quite wonderful. There was no calmness and steadiness at all. It was as if he saw something that surprised him.
"Interesting, it's really interesting. No wonder those Gods and Buddhas in my previous life liked to build temples and build golden bodies. It turns out that you can really get such incredible things." Di Shitian came back to his senses. His eyes revealed a profound look. He muttered to himself, "It's a pity that this jade slip still has restrictions. I can only see a small part of it. Otherwise, when I see all of it, I should be able to know what the purpose of gathering these things is. "
Earlier, when he sent his demonic perception into the jade slip, he discovered that this jade slip was indeed not simple. It contained more than a single restriction. He could sense that these restrictions were extremely terrifying, far beyond what he could reach with his current strength. If he tried to force his way through, he might be struck by the power of the restriction and be turned into an idiot.
This clearly proved that what he had just seen from the jade slip was only a part of all the information contained in the jade slip. Moreover, it should only be the most basic part. With his current ability, he could not see the real precious part at all.
This jade slip was definitely a good thing.
Di Shitian instantly defined it in his heart. After playing with it for a while, he quickly put it into the storage bag and walked back.
However, he did not know that the reason why the blue-robed man wanted to escape was actually because of this jade slip. This jade slip was found by him and his brothers in an ancient cave abode. At that time, there were two Foundation Establishment Elixirs placed together with the jade slip. It was these two Foundation Establishment Elixirs that allowed them to become Foundation Establishment Cultivators.
"That demon has already gone to chase after the consecrator. I wonder if he caught up with him and what happened if he caught up with him. If he comes back, what should I do? Will he kill me? It seems like he's a demon. If I stay here, I might be eaten by him … "
The brocade-robed young man squatted beside the lifeless Multi-Colored Spirit Tiger. He stared at the Spirit Tiger with sorrow and fear in his eyes. All sorts of thoughts flashed through his mind. For some reason, he did not have any thoughts of escaping immediately.
He stroked the Spirit Tiger's head gently. This Spirit Tiger was a spirit beast that his father had specially spent a huge sum of money to buy for him on his ninth birthday. Back then, this Spirit Tiger was still very weak and was merely a spirit beast. Later on, he fed it with all sorts of elixirs without caring about the cost and it transformed into a spirit beast with immense strength.
It could be said that this Spirit Tiger had been with him for way too long. It had always been loyal to him and there was an unbreakable bond between them.
But now, it had died here in order to protect him. One could imagine the sorrow in his heart.
"To think that my 'good' younger brother would be so courageous. To think that he would kill his elder brother for the sake of the throne. Could it be that there's truly no kinship in the royal family? Could it be that the bond between humans can't compare to that of a Spirit Beast? " The brocade-robed young man revealed a vicious expression as he yelled internally, "Huaqing, since you're heartless, don't blame me for being unjust."
His eyes shone with a crazed look as though he had made up his mind.
"Thud!"
Heavy footsteps interrupted the brocade-robed young man's wild thoughts. He snapped out of his daze and looked in the direction of the footsteps. His eyes immediately shone with excitement and reverence.
In front of him was a black-robed Di Shitian, who had just returned.
Of course, Di Shitian had noticed the brocade-robed young man. However, after a quick glance, he did not pay much attention to him. He could tell at a glance that this was just an ordinary person. At most, he had practiced some martial arts and was roughly equivalent to a first-rate expert in the pugilistic world. He was not an immortal cultivator.
"Absorb!"
Walking to the center of the field, the purple Royal Tattoo on his forehead pulsed rapidly. Like a purple flame, it suddenly emitted a dazzling purple light that sprinkled down and covered the three dead cultivators.
"Ah! You've already killed us. Let go of our souls … you can't do this. "
Within the purple light, three souls that were much more condensed than ordinary souls were forcibly pulled out of the corpses. (To be continued, if you want to know what happens next, please go to www.qidian.com. Support the author, support the original reading!)
