Supreme Devouring God

Eight days passed quickly.

During these eight days, the Eight-winged Green Eagle never once rested, flying on without pause.

With Yuan Sha sitting in town, any danger they met was turned into safety.

There was simply no need for Qin Chen and the others to worry about anything.

It just so happened that over these eight days, Qin Chen had completely stabilized his Physical Body Cultivation.

Most crucially, these eight days gave rise in Qin Chen to a ’Feeling of Mind Sovereign’.

This was undoubtedly what delighted Qin Chen the most!

If not for the special circumstances, in just a few more days Qin Chen would probably be able to condense a ’Mind Soul’ and become a Mind Sovereign.

A Mind Sovereign was an existence on par with a Tribulation Transformation Realm Martial Artist.

Moreover, a Mind Sovereign clearly held more advantages than an ordinary Tribulation Transformation Realm Martial Artist; with a single thought, killing an enemy a thousand miles away was nothing difficult.

But that was still fine.

Giving birth to the Feeling of Mind Sovereign did not necessarily mean one could become a Mind Sovereign right away; many preparations still had to be made. If the impact toward Mind Sovereign failed, it was very likely the Feeling of Mind Sovereign would dissipate, and then the loss would outweigh the gain.

”Dao Village, we’ve arrived.”

Yuan Sha’s voice came.

Qin Chen immediately cast his gaze downward.

The Eight-winged Green Eagle was rapidly descending, parting the clouds and dispersing the mists.

A huge village appeared within Qin Chen’s line of sight.

Even from several thousand meters away, Qin Chen could still see many figures within that village.

Clearly, because Dao Village’s ritual to worship the Dao God had opened in recent days, it had drawn the attention of many powers.

Around Dao Village were all high mountains; only the area in the middle was extremely flat, surrounded by many clear waters and Green Mountains, the air incomparably fresh.

It was like a Paradise-like village.

”Whoosh.”

The Eight-winged Green Eagle’s descent to the ground stirred up a great commotion.

In an instant it blew the dust on the ground apart, drawing many gazes from in front of Dao Village.

”To use an Ancient Strange Beast, an Eight-winged Green Eagle, as a Flying Demon Beast—what power is this?”

Someone asked in curiosity.

Yuan Sha was the first to walk down from the Eight-winged Green Eagle, and immediately a man came up from the direction of Dao Village: ”I am Xue Ningjun of Dao Village. On behalf of Dao Village, I welcome Saber Saint Cliff to Dao Village.”

Saber Saint Cliff!

At the sound of that name, the people all around immediately turned their heads to look.

In Qian State, the prestige of Saber Saint Cliff was still quite great.

It was hailed as the strongest Sword Cultivator Sect in Qian State.

”I heard Saber Saint Cliff had some black history here in Dao Village last year. The people Saber Saint Cliff sent this time must not be simple.”

Someone who knew about last year’s matter muttered.

Yuan Sha said with a smile, ”Many thanks, Brother Xue.”

Xue Ningjun waved his hand, and at once people came forward to lead the Eight-winged Green Eagle away.

Xue Ningjun said, ”Brother Yoan, rest easy. During these days the Eight-winged Green Eagle will be housed within our Dao Village’s Spiritual Beast Grassland. Once the ritual to worship the Dao God is over, I’ll have people bring the Eight-winged Green Eagle over to you.”

”In Brother Xue’s hands, I can be at ease.”

Yuan Sha nodded.

Xue Ningjun glanced at Yue Lintao and the others behind Yuan Sha and praised, ”Worthy indeed of Saber Saint Cliff’s Disciples; you’re all outstanding in bearing. I’m looking forward to Saber Saint Cliff’s performance in this ritual to worship the Dao God.”

He was clearly just offering a casual compliment.

But Yue Lintao and Tian Jiahan immediately held their heads high, wearing rather proud expressions.

Perhaps walking outside and hearing others praise Saber Saint Cliff’s Disciples made them feel very proud inside.

Qin Chen’s expression remained calm, neither arrogant nor impatient.

Xue Ningjun said, ”Everyone, please follow me into Dao Village. Dao Village has already prepared simple lodgings for you. I hope you won’t mind and can make do for a few days.”

Yuan Sha quickly said, ”Not at all, not at all. Our people from Saber Saint Cliff are all ones who can endure hardship.”

Following Xue Ningjun, Qin Chen and the others entered Dao Village.

It had to be said, Dao Village didn’t feel like a village to Qin Chen; it felt more like a city.

A super-sized city.

And one built within a natural environment.

Everything was constructed in accordance with nature.

Very soon, Xue Ningjun led Qin Chen and the others to an area of pavilions where the environment was extremely beautiful and comfortable.

”This is the lodging Dao Village has prepared for Saber Saint Cliff—thirty pavilions in total. You may all move in,” Xue Ningjun said.

Yuan Sha said, ”Sorry to trouble you, Brother Xue. This place is excellent.”

Xue Ningjun looked at the sky and said, ”It will be dark soon. Our Dao Village has also prepared a night banquet, to be held by ’Dao Lake’.”

”The night scenery of our Dao Lake in Dao Village is quite beautiful. At that time, all of you can go to Dao Lake, attend the night banquet, admire the lake view of Dao Lake while chatting and laughing. What fun that will be.”

”All right, we understand,” Yuan Sha nodded.

Xue Ningjun said, ”Brother Yoan should know where Dao Lake is, so I won’t take you there.”

Yuan Sha had come to Dao Village more than once, and Xue Ningjun also knew Yuan Sha; the two of them could be considered to have some ties.

”This is an Elemental Talisman for contact. If anything comes up, Brother Yoan can send me a message. Once I receive it, I’ll come over at once.”

”Three days from now, the ritual to worship the Dao God will begin. In these three days, you can all move about as you please and take in the scenery of our Dao Village.”

Xue Ningjun handed Yuan Sha a communication Elemental Talisman.

Dao Village did its reception work very well; this was the facade of a great power, placing great emphasis on etiquette.

”Many thanks. Brother Xue, go on with your business.”

Yuan Sha accepted the communication Elemental Talisman with a smile.

After Xue Ningjun took his leave, the smile on Yuan Sha’s face gradually faded, his brows knitting together.

Yue Lintao asked in puzzlement, ”Master, why do you look like that?”

He and Tian Jiahan were both Disciples of Yuan Sha.

Yuan Sha said, ”There’s something you don’t know. The Dao Lake night banquet is not being held for the first time. When the time comes, it won’t just be us there. Heavenly God Mountain, Void Sect, as well as great powers like the Huangfu Family and the Beiming Dynasty will all be in attendance.”

”This will probably be another stormy gathering.”

Last year, it was at the Dao Lake night banquet that Saber Saint Cliff had lost all face. Yuan Sha had also been the one leading the team, so now that he encountered the Dao Lake night banquet again this year, he naturally had some shadow in his heart.

Yue Lintao immediately said, ”Master need not worry. This time, with your Disciple here, I will surely reclaim Saber Saint Cliff’s honor.”

He was full of confidence.

For this trip to Dao Village, he had prepared for a long time.

Yuan Sha nodded. ”With those words from you, your teacher can be at ease.”

Then he looked at Qin Chen and Lin Songyun. ”The two of you are not to go to the Dao Lake night banquet. Stay here and cultivate. When the ritual to worship the Dao God begins, you can go over then.”

”During this period, neither of you may take a single step out of this place, so as not to stir up trouble.”

Qin Chen glanced at Lin Songyun, then said, ”We merely wanted to admire the scenery of Dao Lake.”

He could tell that Lin Songyun very much wanted to go to Dao Lake.

After all, Xue Ningjun had said earlier that the night scenery of Dao Lake was very beautiful. Since they had come all the way to Dao Village, naturally they wanted to go to Dao Lake at least once.

Cultivation was important, but it wasn’t something one had to do every waking moment.

Yuan Sha immediately frowned. ”I’m not discussing this with you. Since the two of you have come to Dao Village, all your actions must follow my command.”
