262 The Path of Fate, Killing People Secretly
After the discussion, the Desolate Immortal shook the fishing drum in her hand thrice. Immediately, the consciousness of the human-skinned Incarnation stage lord cultivator fell into a daze again. The figure of the Desolate Immortal also disappeared from the consciousness of the human-skinned Incarnation stage lord cultivator.
At this moment, Fang Jinyu sensed the scene in his mind and couldn’t help but be slightly shocked.
The method of communicating with the consciousness of the Incarnation stage lord cultivator was simply miraculous. Even Fang Jinyu, who had stepped onto the threshold of the path of fate, couldn’t do it as easily as the Desolate Immortal.
“However, I didn’t expect the Desolate Immortal to be a female. Moreover, she’s not like the other two Incarnation stage cultivators who were transformed from ghosts.”
Fang Jinyu recalled what he had just seen. The Desolate Immortal’s appearance wasn’t inferior to Xiao Youyue’s, but her temperament was slightly inferior to Xiao Youyue’s. He immediately understood that the Desolate Immortal was most likely a special person.
“The bone flute is most likely a pseudo-immortal treasure. It’s impossible to use it to redeem the human-skinned Incarnation stage lord cultivator.”
Fang Jinyu’s gaze flickered slightly as his fingers moved in a circular motion. After which, he unleashed a few incantations across the air.
The spell turned into a few streaks of light and disappeared in a flash.
As for Fang Jinyu’s inner energy, it was reduced by more than half.
It was the cost of casting the spell.
Afterward, Fang Jinyu began to recover his inner energy while waiting for the Desolate Immortal to come.
A few days later, the Desolate Immortal indeed came.
The Desolate Immortal came ostentatiously, with a grand aura. At the same time, before the Desolate Immortal even reached the territory of the Tianling Sect, she had already spread the news that she recognized the special status of the Tianling Sect. From now on, all living beings in the desolate forbidden land aren’t allowed to enter the immortal city to hunt for food!
When the news spread, it could be said that it shook the entire Nine Desolations.
After all, the amount of information revealed was too great, and it also made the cultivators of the Nine Desolations realize that the Tianling Sect had a foundation that made Incarnation stage cultivators wary.
Fang Jinyu had also learned of the news, but he didn’t intend to let his disciples treat her.
However, after the other party arrived, Fang Jinyu still transformed into reality and appeared in front of the Desolate Immortal.
“Senior, may I know why you came this time?”
Fang Jinyu knew the answer. After he cupped his fists and bowed, he looked at the Desolate Immortal calmly.
The Desolate Immortal was dressed like an ordinary girl from a fisherman’s family. She was simple and elegant. There were two items on her slender waist. On her left was a fishing drum, and on her right was a fishing net.
Seeing the fishing net, Fang Jinyu realized that he had guessed wrongly about the Desolate Immortal’s strength.
She didn’t have a pseudo-immortal treasure that was only a few flaws away from becoming an immortal treasure. In other words, her strength wasn’t as strong as he had imagined.
The reason why the Desolate Immortal could become the leader of the three Incarnation stage lord cultivators in the desolate forbidden land was that she had two pseudo-immortal treasures that weren’t inferior to the iron chain.
She won by quantity.
However, this discovery was undoubtedly good news for Fang Jinyu.
On the other hand, the Desolate Immortal didn’t know that Fang Jinyu was asking an obvious question. When she saw Fang Jinyu speak, she explained her purpose for coming here in detail.
“Fellow Daoist Fang, what do you think?”
As she said it, the Desolate Immortal took out a bone flute.
The bone flute was long and narrow as if it were made from a human leg bone. There were nineteen holes in it. One end was clean and flawless, while the other was full of cracks.
Fang Jinyu sensed it carefully and realized that the bone flute was similar to the “I Want to Turn the Heavens Around Seal” in his hand. They were both high-purity pseudo-immortal treasures. However, at the same time, it wasn’t as good as his “I Want to Turn the Heavens Around Seal” because the bone flute was like the Cultivation Death Bell, losing the possibility of advancing.
Fang Jinyu said directly, “An upper-purity stage pseudo-immortal treasure that can’t be upgraded isn’t enough.”
Upon hearing it, the Desolate Immortal wasn’t surprised. Hence, she said, “Fellow Daoist Fang, you might not know this, but the Wind-summoning Bone Flute doesn’t belong to the Nine Desolations. As a result, we have to send it back to where it was born to continue advancing.”
It was good news for Fang Jinyu. This way, the Cultivation Death Bell in his hand could continue to advance.
However, Fang Jinyu also said, “To me, this item is no different from being unable to advance.”
“Afterward, what do you think of the prescription for the Seamless Elixir?” When the Desolate Immortal heard it, she frowned slightly, but she didn’t choose to fall out with Fang Jinyu.
When Fang Jinyu saw his goal had been achieved, he waved his hand and recalled his “I Want to Turn the Heavens Around Seal” and said, “Senior, please take him away!”
The human-skinned Incarnation stage lord cultivator was also sent out.
At the same time, Fang Jinyu also took away the immortal imprisoning forbidden technique from the human-skinned Incarnation stage lord cultivator.
In an instant, the human-skinned Incarnation stage lord cultivator woke up. An Incarnation stage pressure erupted, but Fang Jinyu casually suppressed it.
As a result, the cultivators from the Tianling Sect were unharmed. However, the cultivators who were brought here by the Desolate Immortals weren’t protected, so they were severely injured by the Incarnation stage pressure.
“It’s you!”
When the human-skinned Incarnation stage lord cultivator saw Fang Jinyu, he was subconsciously shocked. When he saw the Desolate Immortal beside him, only then did he calm down.
After all, the Desolate Immortal had entered his consciousness and discussed it with him.
“Seniors, please go ahead. I won’t send you off.” As Fang Jinyu spoke, he disappeared without a trace.
Of course, the Wind-summoning Bone Flute and the prescription that Fang Jinyu had no use for disappeared.
The name of the Seamless Elixir was enough to tell that it was used to assist in cultivating the heavenly incarnation technique.
When the Desolate Immortal saw that the matter had been successfully resolved, she told the human-skinned Incarnation stage lord cultivator, “I will also return. However, these people have been injured by your aura…”
“Desolate Immortal, I will compensate them.” The human-skinned Incarnation stage lord cultivator immediately said. He was the best at treating injuries caused by the Incarnation stage pressure. His special nature made him able to tan with a special elixir.
However, after consuming the elixirs he made, they would become his resurrection vessel in the future, as well as raw materials when he had special needs.
The Desolate Immortal was also aware of it. However, when he saw that the human-skinned Incarnation stage lord cultivator had agreed, he immediately dispersed.
“Follow me!”
The human-skinned Incarnation stage lord cultivator took the cultivators away.
“Thank you, my lord!”
These cultivators didn’t know what was going on and thought that the human-skinned Incarnation stage lord cultivator was going to treat them.
As the human-skinned Incarnation stage lord cultivator left, nothing out of the ordinary happened. It seemed that the “transaction” this time was very smooth. However, on a certain day a month later, the human-skinned Incarnation stage lord cultivator suddenly disappeared without a trace.
Soon, the “hair man” and the Desolate Immortal spat out a mouthful of unique blood at the same time.
The three of them were one.
The fact that the two of them were injured for no reason meant that the human-skinned Incarnation stage lord cultivator was dead.
“What happened?”
The “hair man” and the Desolate Immortal quickly went to investigate. In the end, they could only find out that the human-skinned Incarnation stage lord cultivator sensed something calling out to him. Hence, he went all the way there and left the Nine Desolations.
Afterward, he encountered something outside the Nine Desolations and died.
