Cultivation: From Servant to Revered Immortal

Chapter 830: Chapter 116: Wang Erniu’s Encounter, Sword Lake Palace Saint Heir?

Great Jin Cultivation Realm, White Bone Mountain,

In the depths of an unknown cave,

An elder with a stern face and hawk-like eyes sat upon a stone platform, before him floated a skeleton,

Which emitted a faint white light under his control,

This person was none other than the Supreme Elder of White Bone Mountain, the feared True Monarch Hundred Bones.

At this moment, a flash of fire flew into the cave from outside, pausing above the cave, sensing it, the elder’s eyes abruptly opened, shining with sharp light,

He gestured with his hand, and the fire transformed into a Sound Transmission Talisman, descending into his hand.

He listened close, hearing that it was his eldest son and junior disciple visiting.

So, with a flick of his sleeve, the skeleton in front of him was instantly stored into a pouch at his waist, then he transmitted his voice outside:

”Enter!”

After a short moment, Wu Feng and Bai Yu walked into the cave following the path.

Upon seeing the elder, Bai Yu and Wu Feng bowed deeply:

”Greetings, Supreme Elder!”

”Why have you two come to see me?” True Monarch Hundred Bones asked coldly, with a faint tone.

Though it was a casual question, in their ears, it felt as heavy as ten thousand catties.

”Reporting to Elder, this time Junior Martial Uncle Wu and I both participated in the Spirit Seizing Conference to contest for the Pavilion Master position of Jiangling Prefecture, unexpectedly encountering a formidable opponent!”

”Even... even Junior Martial Uncle was defeated by this person!”

Bai Yu said tremblingly.

Regarding this father, he was both in awe and fear.

Upon hearing this, Master Hundred Bones did not get angry, instead calmly replied:

”Didn’t I instruct you to bring along Profound Bone King, even it was defeated?”

Yet Wu Feng and Bai Yu could clearly feel an invisible pressure forming.

”Senior Brother, that person is a Thunder Attribute Cultivator, who also cultivates Sword Dao. The union of these factors made even our combined efforts with Profound Bone King unable to rival him,”

”Moreover... moreover, Profound Bone King was captured by that person!” Wu Feng said with fear.

Even though he was already a Middle-Stage Nascent Soul Cultivator, in front of this Senior Brother, he still felt as if newly initiated, cautiously.

He knew very well about the dominance and ruthlessness of this Senior Brother,

Absolutely indifferent to whether someone was a junior disciple or his son.

After all, the number of people who perished at his hands was more than just one or two.

Upon hearing this, True Monarch Hundred Bones finally raised his head, looking at Wu Feng, his eyes emitting a chilling light, instilling fear in him.

”What did you say, Profound Bone King is lost!” The voice was low and slow, yet the surrounding stone walls seemed to tremble.

”Subordinate/son is incompetent!” Wu Feng and Bai Yu both knelt, slightly trembling, not daring to even lift their heads,

After a long while, the intimidating aura gradually diminished, and only a voice from above could be heard:

”Explain how you were defeated!”

Subsequently, Wu Feng related the entire process of battling with Zhou Xun that day.

”The Thunder Dao Sword Array Technique, this is the first time I’ve seen it!”

”A mere Early-Stage Nascent Soul, yet not even you and Profound Bone King combined were able to overcome, it seems this person might have some noteworthy background!”

True Monarch Hundred Bones spoke to himself.

”Indeed, Elder, we investigated this person’s origins, even with the assistance of the Great Jin Intelligence Department, we found only a piece of information that he teleported from Qingzhou ten years ago, and no other data!”

”It’s as if he simply appeared out of nowhere!”

”His two companions are the same!”

Bai Yu quickly added.

”Alright, I’ve heard enough. You two will head to Profound Wind Cave and serve a penalty for twenty years!”

Upon hearing the words Profound Wind Cave, Wu Feng and Bai Yu couldn’t help but shudder,

The cave was a renowned location within White Bone Mountain, containing ’Soul-Eroding Yin Wind.’ This wind acts upon the Divine Soul,

Imparting pain as if extracting and refining the soul, but simultaneously benefiting the Divine Soul greatly as well.

White Bone Mountain’s current renown is directly linked to Profound Wind Cave.

”Yes!”

Bai Yu and Wu Feng nodded, then retreated from the location.

After they left, True Monarch Hundred Bones’s expression darkened,

”Zhou Xun, I hope you’re not also after that thing from Jiangling Prefecture!”

...

On the other side, after Zhou Xun won the Jiangling Prefecture battle,

His fame soared, spreading throughout the entire Jinyang Immortal City.

Thunder Dao Sword Cultivator, this combination, even in today’s Great Jin, is only recorded in scriptures,

And he managed to defeat the combined forces of Profound Bone King and Wu Feng while merely at Early-Stage Nascent Soul.

Profound Bone King is one of the three major Bone Zombies under True Monarch Hundred Bones, a force matching that of a Great Cultivator, famous outside.

Thus, doesn’t it signify that Zhou Xun possesses the power of Late-Stage Nascent Soul,

An Early-Stage Cultivator possessing Late-Stage combat strength,

What does that indicate, how could the cultivators of Great Jin not understand, it implies that this is a Divinity Transformation Seed,

With potential to reach Divinity Transformation in the future.

Therefore, in the following days, visitors came continuously,

Within the cave mansion, after escorting some visitors out, Zhou Xun, together with True Monarch Tianci, rested in the courtyard,

”If this keeps up, my supply of Spirit Tea will be exhausted!”

”These cultivators of Great Jin are just too enthusiastic!” Zhou Xun couldn’t help but smile wryly.

”This only shows that my virtuous brother’s name has already spread throughout the entire Jinyang Immortal City!” True Monarch Tianci smiled faintly.

”Indeed, big brother’s prowess is such that his fame should spread across the world!” Wang Erniu supplemented a remark,

Just at that moment,

A flash of fire flew in from the entrance of the cave mansion, landing above the restriction, darting around,

”Here we go again, more visitors!”

Zhou Xun shook his head,

Fortunately, these days happen to be the interval between the confrontation of Lingling Prefecture and Guiyang Prefecture; they don’t have other tasks to attend to,

Otherwise, there wouldn’t be so much time to receive guests.

Zhou Xun flicked his finger, casting a Spirit Light upon the Sound Transmission Talisman above,

Following that, an elderly yet powerful voice transmitted:

”Liuu He from Sword Lake Palace comes to visit, please find time to meet, Daoist Zhou!”
