Chapter 8
He Qingge had returned from the market with a bountiful harvest. He had bought many life-saving and sinister items.
After returning to the Imperial Beast Peak, He Qingge decided to try the effects of the Purple Smoke Poison he had bought.
He smeared the poison on the weapons he purchased.
The divine weapons used by ordinary people were not considered magic weapons. If used properly, they could cut open the body of a Qi Refinement Realm expert.
After all, without reaching the Foundation Establishment Realm, the body would not transform. Moreover, if it was not a Qi Refinement cultivator who specialized in cultivating the body, the body would not be too strong.
As long as they did not have spiritual energy protecting them, these mortal divine weapons were enough to deal damage to them.
After checking all the things he had prepared, He Qingge heaved a sigh of relief and went to accept the sect’s mission.
It was already nightfall, and the sky had darkened. Fortunately, the immortal cultivators were quite energetic, and there was almost no difference between day and night.
If it was in the modern era, they would be the most qualified cattle and horses.
The sect’s Merit Room was guarded at all times. There was no need to worry about whether he could receive missions at this late hour.
“Get lost!”
A voice seemed to resound through the entire world when He Qingge activated the defensive array of the Spirit Beast Garden.
Berating!
He instantly activated it at the bird on the tree not far away.
The power of superb-level Berating was quite powerful. The bird that had been monitoring him from the tree directly fell from the tree.
One had to know that even a Golden Jade White Tiger at the peak of the Qi Refinement Realm would be stunned by this level of Berating for a long time.
The bird on the tree clearly was not that powerful.
Generally speaking, private fights were not allowed in the sect. However, this bird had been monitoring him for such a long time, and all of it was recorded by He Qingge using the recording crystal.
Even if he were to enter the Disciplinary Hall, he would still have evidence. This bird started monitoring him first, which was a big taboo in the cultivation world. It was equivalent to a life-and-death duel.
One had to know that his Spirit Beast Garden was the nearest one around here. There were no spirit beasts without an owner in the entire Tian Xuan Sect.
Seeing the bird fall to the ground and its entire body stiffening, He Qingge immediately took out a steel needle from his storage bag. He gently stabbed it into the bird’s body.
The steel needle was also a very strong divine weapon. He Qingge had even smeared poison on it, so he could use it to test out the poison.
In just a second, the bird, which was in a daze, lost its breath.
“It seems that I wasn’t lied to in regards to the strength of this poison. I can buy it from him again next time.” He Qingge was quite satisfied and kept the dead bird in his storage pouch.
He went to select the mission that he had chosen two or three days ago. It was a solo investigation mission.
If he were to find a group mission now, he would not be at ease with anyone.
He was now wearing a green Daoist robe, which looked quite ordinary. A few colorful butterflies were embroidered on the Daoist robe, making it look nondescript.
A colorful Sound-Gathering Butterfly was perched on his shoulder.
It looked like another embroidered butterfly on the Daoist robe.
As he did not have the money to buy a Beast-Subduing Bag, he could only do this.
There were all kinds of colorful clothes in the cultivation world. Many beautiful gauze silk products were quite popular.
He Qingge’s outfit did not look too out of place.
The Sound-Gathering Butterfly had been born for a few months now. It had been cultivating with He Qingge, and its talent was still very strong. It had already reached the third level of the Qi Refinement Realm.
It was much faster than He Qingge back then. This was the difference between talents.
[Sect Mission: Head to Beacon City and investigate the serial murders.]
[Mission Description: Many people have died in Beacon City in the past month. The faces of the dead are distorted, and their bodies are cold. It seems that they were extremely frightened, and their hearts were all dug out.]
[According to the sect’s speculation, it should be the work of a low-level demon beast. Overall, the mission is not difficult.]
He Qingge had carefully selected the mission, and it was not too far away from the Tian Xuan Sect. He also had the talent of The Heart of Beast Taming, so he naturally had a good relationship with monsters and pets.
He had prepared so many backup plans. As long as he could avoid the Zhang family’s methods, he should be relatively safe.
After leaving the sect, He Qingge had been using Hearing.
At first, he was unable to take it after a while.
Now, after five months of tempering, he could activate Hearing for a long time, and the consumption was even minimal.
The reason why he consumed so much energy and felt a headache at the beginning was that he had absorbed all the sounds in his mind.
It included the sound of wind blowing, the sound of grass moving, the sound of insects chirping, and all kinds of other sounds.
Now, he only needed to filter out these sounds to greatly reduce the consumption.
A map appeared in He Qingge’s mind according to Hearing. Everyone around him was a special point on the map.
He Qingge could determine if someone was following him based on the trajectory of the dots, which was quite convenient and simple.
There was a large city under the sect named Tian Xuan City. It was the largest city under the jurisdiction of the Tian Xuan Sect. He Qingge came here and rented a horse.
This horse had the bloodline of a demon beast. It had no cultivation and was just an ordinary horse, but its speed was amazing.
He was only at the fifth level of the Qi Refinement Realm and was in the middle stage. He could not fly with Qi at all. Borrowing the horse could effectively save He Qingge’s physical strength.
In fact, one could fly at the late stage of Qi Refinement. However, one needed to have a magic weapon, and it was not limited to flying swords.
However, the number of cultivators who used flying swords far exceeded the number of people who used other magic tools. This result showed that flying swords had their own unique characteristics.
He sat on the horse that he had rented and stuck a Body Lifting Talisman on it, then quickly set off for his destination.
He Qingge did not linger for too long. He knew that the longer he stayed, the higher the possibility of being discovered by the Zhang family.
Since he had killed the bird, they might not be able to find his whereabouts so quickly.
Riding on the galloping horse, He Qingge looked at the vast land and felt like a fish jumping in the vast sea.
Hearing was still activated. There were countless people coming and going in Tian Xuan City, and there were many people who were going the same way as He Qingge.
Tian Xuan City had many wide and smooth roads. It was rumored that the patriarch of the Tian Xuan Sect was the one who built them.
Riding on the main road, He Qingge could not help but wonder when he would be able to possess such power.
However, with the talent of The Heart of Beast Taming, as long as he could survive and contract a stronger pet, his future should be even broader.
He Qingge was quite confident in his future, especially after the transformation of the Sound-Gathering Butterfly, which shocked him.
It was a spirit pet but had the potential to enter the Foundation Establishment Realm.
