Chapter 387 - 24: Curse and Kill_2
Although I don’t understand why Senior Brother Yao, who is clearly not skilled in Beast Control, insists on favoring Shen Fu, if I can just erase Shen Fu’s biggest advantage, presumably Senior Brother Yao should no longer have any intention of taking him as a disciple.
As expected, the sound of Senior Brother Yao’s voice from the small stone suddenly became much more serious:
“Really? I thought I had misunderstood before, has he really not managed to cultivate a Class III Spirit Beast yet?”
Tang Ji hurriedly nodded seriously:
“Look at what you’re saying, Brother, would I dare to deceive you?”
He couldn’t help revealing a gratified smile on his face.
Shen, I surely didn’t let the two hundred upper-grade Spirit Stones you gave me go to waste.
I have done you a favor at least.
Don’t worry, if Senior Brother Qi doesn’t work out, I’ll find someone less desirable for you, so as to definitively not waste your talent.
But in the next second, Tang Ji’s smile froze on his face.
“Genius! He’s a genius!”
Inside the small stone, Senior Brother Yao’s voice was filled with indescribable joy:
“Without even being able to cultivate a Class III Spirit Beast, he can still make so much Spirit Stone by these two skills, he is simply a genius!”
“Moreover, still in a poor country, he could bear the slow progress of the initial stage of cultivation, completed Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment with his own ability, has both a cultivation talent and a good temperament, and can even make Spirit Stones with his own skills, isn’t this like heaven sending me a wonderful disciple?”
“Such a treasure, if Little Qi doesn’t want him, I do!”
This can work too?
Tang Ji hurriedly explained, “…no, I mean he isn’t exactly a genius either…”
“Right, you said my disciple is in danger now?”
“Er, it’s not too dangerous, there are just some Golden Core cultivators, I can easily…”
“I’m rushing over right now!”
Before Tang Ji could finish his sentence, only the sound of ‘zzz’ was left in the small stone.
Tang Ji: ???
He couldn’t help but turn his head to look at Shang Li: “Didn’t I make it clear?”
Shang Li spread his hands and said regretfully:
“I think, maybe you didn’t hit the point.”
Meanwhile.
Chen State.
The former location of East Saint and the spirit of Fanming.
A bare-chested, muscular man with long black hair loosely tied back, emitting an extremely dangerous aura, suddenly stood up.
A look of unrestrainable joy spread across his face:
“Finally encountered a suitable one.”
“Making Spirit Stones is good! Saves me a lot of trouble!”
“Haha, good disciple, don’t be afraid, your master is on his way!”
With that, his figure disappeared instantly.
…
Xuli Sect.
In one of the many ordinary immortal caves in the mountains.
“Requesting Friend Cao to act.”
Wang Tang bowed politely to a stern faced, pale, black-robed young cultivator.
Beside him, Zhuang Yi stood silently.
Before leaving, his senior brother, the sect master, had instructed that Wang Tang was fully responsible for this, he was just for reinforcement.
Of course, in his eyes, there was nothing much to say either. Dead Curse was said to be extremely powerful and eerily unpredictable. Dealing with a mere early-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator like Shen Fu was as easy as reaching out and grabbing him.
Upon hearing this, the black-robed young cultivator’s face showed a proud color, “Friend Wang will be at peace, I will surely apprehend a trivial Foundation Establishment competitor as soon as I take action.”
This attitude immediately irked Wang Tang somewhat, yet his face still wore a forced smile.
He then asked, “Friend Cao, do you need anything else? As long as we have it in the sect, we can provide.”
Without hesitation, the black-robed young man said, “I need you to tell me all about the target to be cursed, such as his name, birthday, cultivation realm, and so on.”
“We can provide the name and cultivation realm, but no one knows his birth date,” Wang Tang pondered.
The birth date of a cultivator, related to one’s life, is usually kept deeply hidden, unwilling to share with others.
“No matter, without the birth date, it would be better to have something that has touched his aura. These are all used to lock in the target, even if his name is false, it does not matter. Of course, it is best to have it.”
Said the black-robed young cultivator, Cao Xiang, and he then drew a piece of yellow paper from his sleeve.
“Friend Wang writes his name on it.”
Wang Tang casually wrote ‘Shen Fu’.
Then, reaching into his storage ring, he took out a vial of chicken essence and handed it to the black-robed youth.
This chicken essence could only be refined by Shen Fu and would naturally be contaminated with Shen Fu’s aura during the refining process.
The black-robed youth checked with his eyes closed and then nodded slightly.
“What realm is this Shen Fu at?”
“Early-stage Foundation Establishment… but to be cautious, it’s best to regard him as a middle-stage Foundation Establishment.”
Wang Tang thought for a while, and reminded cautiously.
“He he, Friend Wang, rest assured.”
A confident smile suddenly rose on the face of the black-robed youth:
“Since Friend Wang has spoken, I will give my all and treat it as if I’m dealing with a Perfect Foundation Establishment!”
Only then did Wang Tang feel somewhat relieved: “Great, thank you, Friend Cao!”
The black-robed young cultivator casually nodded.
He then began to take out one item after another from his storage ring and arranging them according to a peculiar order.
Soon a low wooden altar was built.
On top of the altar were white candles.
The black-robed youth lit them one by one.
The candle’s yellowish flame began to rise.
Even though he didn’t do anything special, a chill wind started blowing through the cave.
