I have Immortality In The Cultivation World

Chapter 129: Chapter 129 Cause and Effect Resolution

hermit cave.

the outer half had already changed dramatically, transformed into a palace that spread over several acres by the craftsmen of the he family.

inside the palace walls, spirit fields were neatly divided into small flower beds, planted with various exotic spiritual medicines, complemented by delicate stone pavilions and jade platforms; gone was the hardship of farming, resembling a court noble leisurely tending to flowers and plants.

"they plan to stay for good!"

zhou yi gently shook his head, his escape light descending into the inner formation.

upon seeing the visitor, the turtle prime minister flipped over its shell with a carp's leap, wearing a look of worry and said, "immortal senior, you've finally returned!"

"what's happened?"

zhou yi slapped his beast-controlling bag, releasing an eagle and a tiger, both mythical beasts.

squawk! roar!

the eagle's eyes were sharp, and the tiger's eyes were ferocious, both looking intently at the turtle prime minister, who was only about four to five feet tall.

"fellow daoists..."

the turtle prime minister had a quick thought and pulled out two hundred-year spirit ginsengs, "taste this, its flavor is quite mysterious!"

it wasn't easy to placate the two mythical beasts, but once done, the turtle prime minister continued to report in a low voice.

"the he family's cultivators have bullied me too much. i advised not to cause major disruptions to avoid attracting the attention of demonic cultivators. yet, as immortal senior can see, they have turned the exterior into their own home, utterly forgetting that the spirit land belongs to immortal senior."

"it doesn't matter. the land of this world never truly belongs to anyone forever!"

zhou yi didn't care to pay attention, and instead gave an order.

"i am to guard the daze marketplace. you are in charge of taking care of the eagle and tiger beasts, extracting their essence blood daily to store, and feed them hundred-year spirit ginseng to recover their qi-blood!"

blood spirit fruit would recover qi-blood more quickly, but with the impending chaos in the cultivation world, he decided to save the blood spirit fruit for using the blood ignition escape technique.

currently, dan ding sect marketplace was guarded with stringent surveillance, resembling military control, and the sect protection array likely monitored the cultivators' caves. zhou yi had too many secrets and only planned to focus on cultivating his techniques in seclusion.

"as you command."

the turtle prime minister looked at the fierce eagle and tiger, hoping they would get accustomed to the taste. forcing it and botching the feeding might lead to a violent backlash.

...

don't miss out on m-vl-em-pyr

he family's palace.

zhou yi appeared silently and watched he dong cultivate quietly.

after a while, he dong felt a sudden panic, and hurriedly stopped the flow of his mana, opening his eyes to see someone standing close by.

"who's there..."

realizing who it was, he dong quickly stood up to pay his respects, "old master tang, i greet you."

zhou yi nodded, "not bad, qi refinement is complete. it seems you haven't been idle these past few years, slaying demons and exorcising evil."

liu linger, recovering from the brink of terror, looked up to see a middle-aged daoist standing in the air without any magic artifact, and quickly bowed in salute.

"thank you, immortal, for saving my life!"

"mm."

zhou yi nodded slightly and looked at the white-haired elder, "less than ten miles from the marketplace, and you dare to capture people for corpse refinement. have evil cultivators become so audacious nowadays?"

"spare my life, immortal, i am not an evil cultivator."

while speaking of mercy, the old daoist waved his hands and released a dozen talismans that turned into a skyful of yin sha mist, using it as a cover to flee into the distance.

zhou yi flicked his finger, and a flash of lightning followed. the old daoist immediately fell to the ground.

he reached out to pull over the half-dead old daoist, placed his palm on the latter's head, and executed the soul searching technique.

having practiced the soul nurturing art for two hundred years and the spirit condensation art for more than thirty years, zhou yi's divine sense far exceeded that of the early foundation establishment stage.

judging by the reach of his divine sense, seventy-odd zhang was already comparable to the late foundation establishment stage, and forcefully searching the soul of a qi refinement realm cultivator was effortless.

"having been a spirit farmer for over thirty years, unwilling to be oppressed by the marketplace, he slaughtered his friends and his entire family to refine a soul banner and became a demonic cultivator... humph!"

the old daoist's soul shattered, his body convulsed a few times, and then he was silent.

liu linger stood with her body bent, not daring to speak. a true person of the foundation establishment stage's temperament was unpredictable, and any word that displeased him could easily slap her to death.

"what is your name? where did you learn the divine bull transformation?"

after leaving luo water spirit land, zhou yi was flying with his escape technique, witnessing several battles between cultivators but never intervening. his action in eliminating the old daoist was prompted first by the man's practice of demonic arts and secondly by the girl's practice of the divine bull transformation.

liu linger answered honestly, "in response to the elder, my name is liu linger. the divine bull transformation is a familial cultivation technique."

"a family... "

zhou yi thought for a long time and then asked, "tell me about your ancestors."

"my ancestors were not from qing kingdom but from great yong mausoleum continent. a member of my clan offended a powerful enemy, and we barely escaped with our lives to settle in qing kingdom."

liu linger did not dare hide anything, "by relying on the familial immortal technique, we gradually gained a foothold in qing kingdom. my great-grandfather even joined the danding sect for cultivation. not long ago, my uncle misassociated with a demonic cultivator, and only i escaped with my life from the massacre of hundreds in the liu family."

"that's about right."

zhou yi took out a bundle from his storage bag and tossed it onto the ground, "this poor daoist shares some old ties with your family; this is what your ancestors left behind, return to rightful owner."

liu linger opened the bundle, inside of which shone two to three hundred spirit stones.

"the cause and effect have concluded."

zhou yi sighed, driving his escape light towards daze marketplace.

from the memories of the demonic cultivator's soul, he knew qing kingdom was now in complete disarray, its royal family controlling only a few hundred miles around the capital.

the rest of the territories were rampant with rebellion. groups of three to five loose cultivators could raise a flag, claim land, and rebel. it wasn't necessarily about cultivating demonic arts; most were simply hopeless in their own cultivation path and chose instead to enjoy worldly power and riches.

danding sect treated the rebels differently, exterminating loose cultivators leading demons and placating those on the righteous path.

once the heavenly demon sect was repelled, it would be time to settle accounts with each!
