One zhang is 3.33 meters.
Chapter One Hundred And One All In!
A handful of glowing water jumped like a fire, the fire turning from clear to a deep blue, a faint
mist surrounded the flame, shooting upwards.
Chang Heng gently threw out the blood wheel that was rotating on his hand. The moment the
blood wheel left, everyone felt their eyes darken. The blood wheel turned into a ball of blood
mist, heading for Zuo Mos head. The blood mist that boiled restlessly was like a strange beast,
occasionally giving a low howl, like there were countless ghosts shrieking and screaming,
shaking the souls of listeners.
The blue fire carrying mist and the blood mist smashed together.
Ding!
A crisp sound like that of an icicle rang out. Immediately after, countless howls and screams
came out of the blood mist. The spectators felt their eardrums hurt. The people who were close
had blood streaming out of their ears.
Pew pew pew! The blue flame continuously released countless tiny sword essences. Anytime the
blood mist neared, it would be frozen by the icy and sharp sword essences into tiny red ice drops.
The sword energies of the blue flame seemed to be endless. Having been wounded, the restless
blood mist was like a provoked beast, even more furiously boiling. The shrieks coming out of the
blood mist even more piercing and furious.
The center of the blood mist seemed to suddenly collapse. The blood-colored mist started
retreating at an astounding speed. In the blink of an eyes, the ten zhang wide blood mist had
disappeared. On the empty ground, there was a blood-colored spider. The spider was slightly
taller than Zuo Mo, and had numerous black patterns all over its body, which seemed like
character seals. Big and small reverse hooks covered the spiders legs, gleaming with a cold
light. Anyone who saw them did not doubt that if they were caught, flesh would be easily ripped
out. The eyes of the spider, each the size of two fists, stared emotionlessly at Zuo Mo.

Zuo Mos heart was shocked. The blood spider in front of him didnt have the powerful presence
of the blood mist before it, but it made him even more wary.
However, at this time, his heart was completely filled with sword essence. Even if he was facing
a terrifying blood spider that he had never seen before, his mind had never wavered!
Seemingly feeling the resolve in Zuo Mos heart, the blue flame, carrying along its mist, turned
into a stream of light, shooting at the blood spider.
The blood spider suddenly lifted its head, and opened its mouth.
A piercing and dissonant shriek flooded from its mouth. With it as the center, the air seemed to
have been pulled, and rippled, visible to the naked eye.
The flame that had turned to a stream of light suddenly brightened. The mist that surrounded it
became denser, speeding up even more. With the flame as the center, countless tiny sword
essences criss-crossed, forming a shapeless sword essence net!
Zuo Mos body slightly wavered, shocked inside. The shout from the blood spider actually could
harm his spirit! If his spirit wasnt much more powerful than normal xiuzhe, he would have been
greatly wounded by that.
The surrounding xiuzhe were much worse off. Most of the xiuzhe that had been lying on the
ground paled. Their consciousness were greatly wounded. Only the xiuzhe that was wearing a hat
was not moved, seemingly unaffected.
Lucky we went back far enough! The Ling Ying Sect disciple that had been objecting to Yang
Ming Zi and the others was full of relief. Even though they were far enough away, but he still
was affected. His chest seemed to be roiling and wanting to throw up. His eyes as they looked at
Chang Shixiong instantly filled with awe.
No one paid attention to him.
Yan Ming Zi gaped. Pointing at Chang Heng, he suddenly turned his face to ask,Who said
Chang Shixiong was relaxing and cultivating his mind?
Hu Shan and Tao Zhu Er looked in shock at each other. Chang Shixiongs power, compared to a
few years ago, was even more terrifying.
The battle had reached the climax.

The blood spider didnt dodge. Instead it raised its head and reached with its forelimbs to slice at
the Water Drop sword!
The stream of blue flame that was the Water Drop sword accurately hit the blood spiders
forelimbs.
The moment the two impacted, a thick bloody light rose around the blood spider, sheltering it.
The blue flames sword essences hit the blood light around the blood spider, icy spraying but
basically unable to break its defense.
Boom!
The true body of the blue flame directly hit the blood light.
The blood light, which hadnt moved at all before, suddenly started to shake. The bloody light
moved relentlessly as though it could shatter at any time.
Argh! The blood spider gave a sky-shaking howl, its voice filled with fury!
The blood light around its body suddenly increase, the thick blood light seeming composed of
countless amounts of fresh blood, so congealed it seemed real.
Zuo Mo instantly felt the pressure increase. The pressure in front of the Water Drop sword was
so great that he had never felt it before. It was like murderous intent was hitting in from all
directions. The Water Drop sword was like a fish caught in a net.
At this time, Zuo Mo didnt have any other thoughts. Jingshi, talismans, they were all thrown out
of his head. In his eyes, there was only the blood spider and the Water Drop sword!
The ling power furiously moved. He didnt need any benefit or simulation. The blood spider
gave Zuo Mo a pressure of death that he had never felt before, forcing him instinctively to use
his full power!
He forgot this was a spar, forgot the agreement of one move.
All the ling power in his body was channeled into the Water Drop sword. The flood of battle
spirit, and the terror of death at the bottom of his heart, entwined like twins, deeply provoked
Zuo Mo. All of his calmness, all of his intelligence turned to dust at this time. What remained
was the most basic instincts, the instinct to fight, the instinct to live!
At some unknown time, Zuo Mo suddenly floated into the sky.

The next scene struck everyone completely dumb.


What what is that? Yang Ming Zi stammered to ask.
Hu Shans face was full of shock, unconsciously muttering,It isnt possible this isnt
possible
Tao Zhu Ers face paled like paper. Wang Shixiong who had been sitting suddenly jumped up,
looking in disbelief at Zuo Mo. The expression on Wen Fei, who had been watching attentively,
suddenly changed. Lin Yuan, not far away, also stared in shock. The black gauze of the hatwearing xiuzhe who had been standing steadily rippled fiercely, like a furious wind blew past.
Even Chang Heng who was coldly standing behind the blood spider showed shock.
The ling energy surrounding Zuo Mo as he floated in mid-air, headed for Zuo Mo at terrifying
speeds. He was like a whirlpool, crazily absorbing the surrounding ling energy.
In reality, the ling energy at the gates of Ling Ying Sword Sect wasnt dense. However, the
suction inside Zuo Mos body was too powerful. After he sucked in the ling energies in the
surroundings, he started to pull on ling energy from further away. This kind of rough suction of
ling energy, no one had seen it before. Even more, this was sucking in ling energy as he fought.
This this was too fantastical!
Zuo Mo didnt know the shock he gave others. Right now, he was like a beast at deaths edge, all
of his attention on the blood spider in front of him. He put all the ideas he could think of into use.
Gambling everything!
He completely disregarded the tearing pain from his channels. Without calculating the
consequences, he furiously took in the surrounding ling energy.
The blue flame became even brighter. As the impure ling energy was sent in, it didnt burn
quietly anymore, but with crackles and bangs! If the blue flame had previously been as quiet as a
virgin, then the present flame was like an infuriated brawny man!
A sliver of fear came through the blood spiders eyes but it quickly became even more furious.
This average little boy in front of it dared to repeatedly challenge its dominance. It had even
been, for one moment, afraid of him. He was completely infuriated!
Awroooooooooooooooo!

The size of the blood spider exploded. In the blink of an eye, it had increased multiple times.
Standing there, it was like a little mountain. The blood light on its body turned from light to dark.
It was like there was a thick layer of congealed blood covering its entire body. Occasionally, dark
red blood would drip to the ground, sending up wisps of green smoke, a burnt hole appearing on
the ground.
Everyone knew that the battle had reached the most crucial time.
Suddenly, one red light and one blue light moved at the same time! They chose to use the most
straightforward and brutal way, like two raging bulls, crashing together.
Boom!
Everyone felt a blinding light and couldnt not see anything else. The ground under their feet
shook. Other than feeling fear, they hurried to steady themselves.
Before they could open their eyes, they heard Zuo Mos voice come out of the air.
Chang Shixiongs teachings, this little brother has managed to pass and will bid farewell now.
See you in the future!
When everyone opened their eyes, where could they find Zuo Mos figure? The last round just
now had been too amazing. Almost everyone had lost focus, dumb where they stood. When they
regained their minds, and looked towards the field, the blood spider seemed depressed. The
several cun deep marks on the two forelimbs were alarming to see. There was nothing remaining
of the bravado and fierceness just before.
Chang Heng Shixiong was standing, eyes closed, his legs buried in the rock floor up to his knees.
He was motionless. No one dared to go closer.
A moment later, a sword light landed from the sky. It was an elder of Ling Ying Sect. He scanned
the surroundings. Noticing the wounded and dejected blood spider, his face slightly changed and
sternly shouted,What just happened?
The disciples murmured. Lin Yuan saw the eyes turn towards him and could only go forward to
give a simple narration.
Hmph, Wu Kong Sword Sect is too bold! The light in this Ling Ying Sect elders eyes grew as
he snorted coldly. When his eyes moved towards Chang Heng that was still motionless with
closed eyes, joy suddenly came into his eyes.

Just at this time, Chang Heng opened his eyes, a flash of blood red flashing and disappearing
from his eyes!
He raised his head and howled to the sky!
Wen Fei first paused and then had a gleeful expression.
Chang Heng was extremely refreshed. He had managed to smoothly break through the barrier
that he had been stuck at for a long time. Today, he finally entered ningmai! After a while, he
looked in the direction that Zuo Mo had disappeared in, an amused expression on his face.
The xiuzhe wearing the hat looked for a moment at Chang Heng and turned to leave.
On the grey-beaked goose, Zuo Mos face was grey. His clothes were covered with blood. He
had been gravely wounded in the last round, and had spat blood multiple times. In order to leave
earlier, he had forced his ling power out and relied on it to head straight towards the place he had
put the grey-beaked goose. This was why his wounds had been worsened. He only had one
thought in his head, to get back even quickly to the sect.
Heavily wounded, Zuo Mo felt his body was increasingly heavy. He motionlessly laid on the
back of the grey-beaked goose and became unconscious.
The grey-beaked goose seemed to know that the situation was grave, powerfully waving the
wings and furiously flying in the direction of Wu Kong Sword Sect.
Suddenly, a five-colored light lit up on Zuo Mos chest. Inside the five-colored light, lines of
green colored energy came out and, following the channels in the body, spread into Zuo Mos
limbs and organs.
In the consciousness, Pu Yao was looking in interest at this scene.
So interesting, I really want to crack it open
Translator Ramblings: So its a draw! Chang Heng got super lucky and broke through with this
fight and Zuo Mo is heavily wounded again.

Couldnt Understand

Chapter One Hundred and Two Couldnt Understand


Zuo Mo slowly woke up. His face was pasted to the ground, dirt in his mouth. He felt slightly
secure once he realized he was in his little yard.
When he inspected his body, his heart finally relaxed. The situation was better than he had
expected. Even though his injuries were serious, especially in his channels, but it was much
better than he had imagined. What he was most afraid of was damaging his basic vitality. That
was a fatal wound that even jindan xiuzhe could not save him from.
Still alright, alright
He struggled up from the dirt floor. He was used to the soreness of his entire body. Thinking
about it now, he always ended up causing his own sorry state. If it happened multiple times, then
one would get used to it. Even something like enduring pain was like that.
However, when he saw the grey-beaked goose splattered like mud lying nearby, he was very
shocked. He hurriedly stumbled over. It definitely was this female birds labor that he could
come back. If he didnt have it, he would have been very badly off! Coming to the grey-beaked
goose, he carefully inspected her before his heart settled down. This female bird was just
exhausted. Zuo Mo was very moved.
Running to the stone room, and taking out the stone milk that he treasured so much, he dropped
three drops to the grey-beaked goose.
Silly Bird, Silly Bird, ge is pretty good to you! Zuo Mo said to himself.
For xiuzhe, using stone milk by itself didnt have much of a beneficial effect, but for ling beasts,
this was a natural treasure. Other than Zuo Mo, no one would feed three drops of stone milk to a
second-grade grey-beaked goose. From the perspective of jingshi, three drops of stone milk was
much more valuable than a second-grade grey-beaked goose. However, this person and bird had
great camaraderie. Even though this female bird had once taunted him, but ge is generous, and
wont hold a grudge with you silly bird, Zuo Mo thought.
The effect of the stone milk was, as expected, extremely clear.
Just seconds later, the grey-beaked goose stood up again, but
Looking at the grey-beaked goose, like a person, her wings tucked behind her back, puffing up
her chest, walking the steps, Zuo Mo was dumbstruck. But it didnt manage to maintain it for
very long before it became fretful, jumping about in the yard, jumping up and down. Zuo Mo

gaped with wide eyes. But after a while, even jumping would not satisfy it. That pair of wings
started to endlessly make strange movements. It looked like a convulsing strange bird dancing.
It was really too horrible to look at, no sense of beauty at all
Zuo Mo could only give this cruel review.
After thinking slightly, he understood what had happened. He had given too much stone milk to
the grey-beaked goose. The potential of the grey-beaked goose was very average, and was not
able to tolerate such a large amount of stone milk. Too much of the medicinal power was unable
to be absorbed and caused it to act so crazily.
Suddenly, Zuo Mo paled. This silly bird was running towards the ling fields!
Stop! Zuo Mo couldnt resist and swore, If you ruin my fields, Ill break your legs!
Frightened by Zuo Mo, the grey-beaked goose rushed to a stop and its head plunged into the
ground, head down and tail up. It was still slightly frightened of Zuo Mo. When it swayed as it
pulled its head out of the ground. Zuo Mo saw the situation was bad and yelled,Are you dumb?
Go fly into the sky!
The grey-beaked goose used its wings to hit its head, its face giving an expression of realization.
Then it shook its head drunkenly, flapping its wings and staggered as it shot into the air.
Zuo Mo patted his chest in fear. These days, even birds were this strong!
Having managed to stabilize the silly bird, Zuo Mo dragged his half-crippled body into the stone
room. Once he crawled in, he entered meditation.
He spent much longer in meditation than before, a full twenty hours before he woke up. Even
though he hadnt been wounded too severely, but the wounds in the channels inside his body
were not insignificant. The damaging power of the impure ling energy was extremely serious. At
that time, he really had been crazy. For jingshi, to not even care for his life? However, thinking
back to it, he felt that it wasnt right. Why had he been so reckless? He couldnt pin down a
reason.
That last attack, there were many places for him to savor.
He and Chang Heng were not on the same level of power. It could be seen from the fact the other
had forced him to the precipice with one move. Thinking about it now, Zuo Mo still felt fear. It
wasnt that he hadnt thought about Chang Hengs level of power, but he hadnt thought he

would have struggle so much to stand up under just one of Chang Hengs moves. It really was a
miracle that he was only wounded this little.
He wasnt dejected. From level of cultivation, there was too much of a difference. Chang Heng
was at the peak of zhuji, someone heading for ningmai. Zuo Mo was only the fourth level of
zhuji.
However, he was now at the fifth level. Just now, after a meditation of twenty hours, he had
accidentally entered the fifth level. This wasnt all of the gains from the battle. That was why
Zuo Mo wasnt leaving after he woke up, but sitting, savoring the entire battle.
The battle had been extremely short, just one move, yet the changes involved were not simple.
Quite the opposite, there were many changes that Zuo Mo had never even thought about before.
He had even done something as damaging to himself as sucking ling energy into his body to just
barely make it through one of the others moves. There were too many actions of Chang Heng
that were worth learning from. The precision of ling energy usage, the attack on the
consciousness, the usage of presence and pressure
This meditation was another ten hours.
When he truly finished, he felt that he was extremely hungry. Running to the stores, he found
some ling grains. Not caring about his cooking skill, he personally made a ling grain meal. The
terrible cooking skills caused the taste of the meal to be rather bad. Zuo Mo did swallow up
every bit of it. The ling energy contained in the ling grains was extremely useful.
After filling his hunger, he started to inspect his spoils of war.
When he put all the trophies out, he instantly became excited.
[Moonwater Black Turtle Armor], [Seal Soldier], one third-grade belt, and a pair of third-grade
vambraces.
He was familiar with the attributes of Moonwater Black Turtle armor. The seal soldier could be
used only one more time. That was something to use to save his life at a crucial time. Zuo Mo
naturally wouldnt be so dumb as to try it out. After memorizing the spell, he carefully put away
the seal soldier.
The important ones were the belt and the vambraces. Zuo Mo had to admit that he had slipped up
on the belt. The gold glittering belt only had one formation: Martial Bearing. Zuo Mo thought
this was a formation that had no use at all. Its purpose was to make the presence of the wearer
more outstanding, and look stronger and magnificent.

In other word, this was a decorative formation. Zuo Mo wanted to spit blood. He felt that it could
be understandable that women would wear talismans of this type, but a guy, wearing a belt
carved with [Martial Bearing] formation in broad daylight, they were too much of a showoff. The
belt was made up of soft Gold Sky silk. The quality was outstanding. Such good material carved
with a formation that had no real use, what a waste!
Zuo Mo was extremely frustrated. Why did he pick such a useless item?
However, what could be celebrated was that the vambraces did not disappoint him. There were
two formations on it: [Thirty Thousand Catty] and [Nimble Fingers]. [Thirty Thousand Catty]
was able to greatly increase his power. In the eyes of other xiuzhe, especially sword xiu, this
might be a useless formation, but Zuo Mo liked it very much.
Wasnt it just perfect to match with [Vajra Profound Sutra]?
Thinking about having a pair of dark gold hands with the power of a thousand catties, unable to
be destroyed, easily breaking down other peoples flying sword, Zuo Mos heart jumped in
excitement. Of course, this was just a fantasy. No one would let their flying sword get caught by
another persons hand. However, as a trap, this was still one that people could not defend against.
[Nimble Fingers] was a formation that was widely used. Its attribute was to increase the
nimbleness of fingers. However, this was not that useful for Zuo Mo. In low-level xiuzhe, his
finger motions was already very strong. The increase it would give him was almost nothing.
[Nimble Fingers] was more effective the less familiar a xiuzhe was with finger motions. Those
that were familiar, there wasnt much of an effect.
Okay, people shouldnt be too greedy. Zuo Mo muttered inside. He needed to go to Dong Fu
right now, and sell a talisman to gather up the jingshi needed to clear his debts. The belt probably
couldnt sell for much jingshi. If it really wasnt enough, he had to sell this pair of vambraces as
well. He was slightly reluctant. Vambraces that had [Nimble Fingers] on it were easy to buy.
What he was reluctant to sell was the [Thirty Thousand Catty] formation.
But he was poor, Zuo Mo had no way around it.
The grey-beaked goose had flown away, so Zuo Mo could only flip out his flying paper crane.
Lil Yellow, LilYellow, its time for you to perform!
Sitting on the paper crane, Zuo Mo swayed and staggered his way to Dong Fu. The outer sect
disciples of Wu Kong Sword Sect, when they saw Zuo Mo riding a paper crane, first paused, and
then their faces were full of admiration as they bowed to Zuo Mo.

Did you hear? Shixiong went alone to challenge Ling Ying Sect! One against five and managed
to beat all of them! All of Dong Fu has heard it!
On the paper crane, Zuo Mos body froze and he started to sweat. This rumor
Yes, yes! Such a stunning incident, how could I not have? I heard that there was a ten zhang tall
spider, whose gigantic mouth could swallow a bull whole, Zuo Shixiong used only one move to
beat it until it begged for mercy
Sitting on the paper crane, Zuo Mo almost dropped off. It was more like he had almost begged
for mercy
So strong! Look at Zuo Shixiong, such a powerful person, and is riding a first-grade paper
crane. What is called living frugally? What is inscrutable? This is!
Yes yes!
Zuo Mo finally couldnt bear it any longer and fled.

An extremely well attired middle aged person was repeatedly examining a soft gold belt,
expression excited and heated.
Good thing! Really a good thing! Tsk tsk, look, this weaving, seventy two joyful crane
technique, isnt something any master can knit out. Look at the style, the two words, extremely
noble! Very classic form, wont go out of style for at least fifty years. Soft gold silk is a good
material. Gold yet not blinding, bright but not crass. Only this kind of fine material can display it
to the best advantage. If it something lesser, it would be too cheap, and the comfort would be
less. Someone who can buy something like this, who would buy it if it wasnt comfortable? See
this lucky knot, skilled. Using lucky knots to lock the edge, Ive never seen something like it.
This time, Ive really broadened my visions. This [Martial Bearing] formation has had great care
in it. This position, it perfectly covers the entire body. Wearing it, if you dont look elegant and
grand, it must be the base material is terrible
Zuo Mo dazedly came out of the store, the hundred treasures pouch at his waist full and bulging.
He felt like he was in a dream.
A soft gold belt carved with a martial bearing formation was actually the most expensive of all
these talismans.
These days, was it him that was crazy, or them that was crazy

He couldnt understand, couldnt understand!


Translator Ramblings: Zuo Mo doesnt understand what vanity is. The [Thirty Thousand Catty]
is really nicer as [Thousand Jun], one jun being thirty catties. It usually describes the great
magnitude of the power which is unable to be blocked.

Chapter One Hundred and Three Inspiration
Zuo Mo had felt before that he had a very good understanding of the world over that last two
years. At least, he knew the area of Dong Fu very well. But when a decorative belt carved with
[Martial Bearing] sold for such a price, he suddenly felt that there were still many things he did
not understand.
He quickly recovered from the blow that jingshi had dealt him.
Refocusing, Zuo Mo found that there were many more people on the street than before.
Strangely and exotically dressed people passed him by, and were clearly not locals.
Bro, theres so many people. Is something big happening in Dong Fu recently? Zuo Mo found
a shopkeeper that was waving a bell outside.
This shopkeeper discreetly swept across the talismans on Zuo Mos body and pushed out a smile,
respectfully answering, Elder may not know. These people have all come for the Dong Fu
Sword Test Conference. This sword conference has really shook Sky Moon Jie. For the last half
year, almost all of the young experts have gathered in Dong Fu, He then made a little flattery,
and earnestly said, This one sees that Elder is young but is powerful. If you go to try, you
certainly come out on top.
Zuo Mo finally understood. So it was the sword test conference. He had heard that Dong Fu was
planning on holding a sword test conference but hadnt thought that it would be an event of such
magnitude. He was very surprised.
Having understood the situation, Zuo Mo didnt have much interest left. Something like a sword
test conference, it didnt have too much to do with him. A place where all the experts will gather,

since he was only a zhuji there was nothing for him to do there. If Wei Sheng Shixiong was
attending, he would go watch. Other than that, he didnt have any interest.
It was more practical to earn jingshi, and cultivate. He hummed a little tune, sitting on the paper
crane and swaying as he flew back to Wu Kong Mountain.
Walking into the Little West Wind Yard, he was struck dumb.
A snow-white big bird was standing on his rooftop, posturing. The proudness of the aura, it was
like a princess high up, dressing up in front of a mirror.
These days, when did birds become show-offs?
He seemed to feel that this white bird was somewhat familiar, but no matter how hard he
thought, he didnt remember who in the sect would have such an extraordinary looking big bird.
This big bird was entirely snow white without one feather discolored. The beak was a pure clean
sky blue. It looked extremely anthropomorphic, and intelligent. This mount, it definitely would
be expensive.
Who lost their mount? Zuo Mo couldnt help but wonder.
The snowy bird that had been posturing saw Zuo Mo standing at the door out of the corner of its
eyes, and its body froze.
Zuo Mo caught this little movement. He first paused, and then unhesitatingly swore, Silly Bird,
get down!
So this was his grey-beaked goose. But, why did it change to look like this? Zuo Mo wondered
inside. Was this the effect of the stone milk?
The snowy bird bashfully came down from the roof, running on front of Zuo Mo and rubbed
fawningly against him.
The hairs on Zuo Mos body stood up, Stay away from me, female bird!
The snowy bird seemed to hurtfully lower its head.
Ah, so the feathers changed. Oh, your body got slightly larger, Zuo Mo made two circles
around the snowy bird. Seeing Zuo Mo examining her, the snowy bird instantly puffed up its
chest, exuding a proud demeanor.

Seeing the snowy bird act like this, Zuo Mo was infuriated. He slapped the snowy birds head,
angrily saying, You almost ruined ges ling fields, did you know that? Ah! Im telling you, if
you dare to damage the ling fields one bit, ge will pluck your feathers and cook you!
Hearing Zuo Mo say pluck, the snowy bird was aghast, its pair of wings securely blocking its
chest as it stumbled back a few steps.
Seeing the anthropomorphic move of the snowy bird, Zuo Mo grinned. He really didnt have to
argue with a silly bird.
Just go somewhere else.
Zuo Mo threw down these words and then went into his rooms.
His life had finally returned to normal. After clearing his debts, the remaining jingshi had been
silently taken away by Pu Yao. Zuo Mo could not do anything. Pu Yao was just too skilled. He
didnt need Zuo Mos agreement, and it didnt matter where Zuo Mo hid it, he could always find
it easily, and then unceremoniously take all of it.
When Zuo Mo found out, the jingshi had disappeared for a few days. With fury, Zuo Mo ran over
to talk with Pu Yao. Each time, he was defeated by Pu Yaos indifference.
To go from wealthy to penniless in the blink of an eye, Zuo Mo wanted to spit blood.
However, what comforted him was that, perhaps it was the effect of the jingshi, the sea of flames
inside his consciousness had recovered greatly.
Without jingshi, he couldnt do anything. Zuo Mo could only live.
The growth of the Fiery Red flower in the ling garden was very good. They would be ready for
harvest soon. In comparison, the ling grasses that he had planted in the ling gardens matured
first. This made him very excited. All of these ling grasses had been planted in preparation for
him to make new dan. He hadnt planned on selling those.
Twenty mu of ling grasses, it was enough for his own use. After harvesting all the ling grasses
and processing them, he gained such a large amount of ling grasses that he had to set aside a
room specifically to store it.
He did not need to go to the dan-room to make dan anymore. With the Stalagmite fire, he could
make dan anywhere. This was also why every person who did dan-making or forging dreamed of
having a fire of their own. Adding on the Streaming Fire core management formation on the jade
pendant, the biggest barrier to making lingdan for him was his cultivation. The highest dan

medicine that a zhuji xiuzhe could make was second grade. If he wanted to make third-grade
lingdan, he must have a cultivation of ningmai.
Without jingshi, Zuo Mo had great motivation. He decided to not leave his rooms, furiously
making dan every day.
Bone tempering dan, evil removing dan, and spirit increasing dan. Under his furious efforts, the
number quickly increased. The effect of these low level lingdan was not outstanding in anyway,
but Zuo Mo planned on using quantity to overcome quality. Without heed to anything else, he
just used up all his materials.
Two hundred bone tempering dan, two hundred evil removing dan, and two hundred spirit
increasing dan. Zuo Mo used three gourds to store these dan-medicine separately.
What amazed Zuo Mo was that he had accidentally made ten second-grade bone tempering dan,
eight second-grade evil removing dan, and ten second-grade spirit increasing dan. First-grade
was worthless, but second-grade could sell for a pretty good price. However, Zuo Mo didnt plan
on selling even one of them. The jingshi he would get would all be taken away by Pu Yao.
Consuming a bone tempering dan, Zuo Mo started to channel the gravestone version of [Vajra
Profound Sutra]. As expected, a burst of medicinal energy entered his body. Each time that he
used an evil removing dan first before cultivating, some black stains would appear on his body.
The effect of consuming spirit increasing dan was the most evident. Eating it and then practicing
[Embryonic Breathing Spiritual Cultivation], he could clearly feel the medicinal energy entering
his mind.
Seeing that this method was effective, and having so much of the lingdan, Zuo Mo furiously
shoved lingdan in his mouth each time before he cultivated.
After more than ten days, there was significant progress with [Vajra Profound Sutra]. Golden
patterns appeared on his chest. If he channeled ling energy, the Water Drop sword could not
wound him. The progress of his spirit was even more apparent, without him detecting it, he had
reached fourth breath. In the void of his sea of consciousness, four stars lined up in a row.
This was all from eating dan. He had ate several dozen of the first-grade ling dan but no dan had
much of an effect. So he could only eat the second-grade lingdan. After eating the second grade
lingdan, he experienced the gigantic gap between grades. The effect of the second-grade lingdan
was more than ten times the first-grade lingdan!
There was about one hundred pieces of each type of ling dan. They wouldnt sell for much
jingshi if he sold it. It was both obscure and low level, there was no market.

He decided to feed the rest of the lingdan to the silly bird and the Black Gold worm.
The Black Gold worm ate lingdan like thin crisps, crunch, crunch crunch. The lingdan would
visibly shrink. Silly Bird ate lingdan more like it was eating beans, ga-bang ga-bang. Seeing
them enjoy eating so much, Zuo Mo would become hungry as well, and ate them as snacks,
chewing on them once in awhile.
After Silly Bird transformed, Zuo Mo had pulled it to be assessed. Right now, it was a thirdgrade blue-beaked snowy bird. The value of it had increased exponentially. Right there, someone
had asked Zuo Mo whether he would sell it, and was willing to pay two hundred pieces of thirdgrade jingshi. Zuo Mo was extremely tempted. Seeing the situation, Silly Bird hurriedly ran in
front of him and pretended to be pitiful. It even used that pair of wings to pretend to wipe tears.
Zuo Mo didnt know to laugh or cry. The people in the surroundings were amazed, and thought
this bird was extremely intelligent. The price instantly flew to five hundred pieces of third-grade
jingshi.
Zuo Mo still refused. He looked at the smug face of Silly Bird and thought to himself. Oh, it
wasnt that ge didnt bear to part with the bird, but if he had jingshi, it would only fall into Pu
Yaos hands.
All of his attention was on cultivation. At the beginning, he had used the whirlpool ling sucking
method to make the yin fire beads and found it very useful. The amount of ling energy taken in
was much more efficient than any other scripture. However, the impurities in the ling energy
taken in this way was extremely high. If he could think of a way to get rid of the impurities in the
ling energy, then his cultivation would increase extremely quickly.
He suddenly thought about the process of using the Stalagmite fire to make dan. The Stalagmite
fire could burn away the unnecessary impurities and provide what he needed.
Maybe, he could use the Stalagmite fire to get rid of the impurities in the ling energy.
The more he thought, the more plausible he found the idea.
Without anything else to do, he started to experiment with this strange idea. Zuo Mo was never
afraid of trying out new things. Like the Golden Crow pill, like the whirlpool ling suction
method, like merging sword essences. No one told him what was possible so he had to try for
himself.
In any case, his cultivation was low. Even if he was injured, it wouldnt be too major, he
frequently comforted himself with this.

There were too many problems involved. Like how to use the Stalagmite fire to purify, no jade
scroll had ever mentioned that it was possible to use fire seeds to burn ling energy. This process
also had to be carried out inside his body. After ling energy was taken into the body, it would
pass through the channels. In other words, the setting to forge the ling energy had to be in his
channels. Zuo Mo was very doubtful and felt that this was extremely unlikely that his fragile
channels could contain something as terrifying as the Stalagmite fire.
Then that led to another problem he had to overcome, he needed to strengthen his channels,
making sure the Stalagmite fire would not damage his channels.
A stream of complex questions gave Zuo Mo a headache. He felt that he had no place to start.
For some reason, he suddenly thought of Chang Heng who had beaten him so terribly. The
dejection that had come into his heart was replaced by motivation.
He gritted his teeth, saying to himself, Ge holds grudges!
Translator Ramblings: Silly Bird has evolved! Zuo Mo tries self-improvement and gets stuck.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Four


Hesitation
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, warlord212 and
cactuar0.
Merry Christmas to those who celebrate it!
Chapter One Hundred and Four Hesitation
The first problem was strengthening his channels.
Only stronger channels could tolerate the Stalagmite fire. Otherwise Zuo Mo would be frozen
into a popsicle by the Stalagmite fire. This first problem was enough to trip Zuo Mo up. The only
scripture that he had related to strengthening the body was [Vajra Profound Sutra]. The effects of
the [Vajra Profound Sutra] didnt look very bad right now, and Zuo Mo tried to find a section on
it relating to strengthening channels.
He was quickly disappointed.
There wasnt too much in [Vajra Profound Sutra] on strengthening channels. Zuo Mo,
unsatisfied, ran to the records room, searching everywhere for scriptures that could strengthen

his channels. He quickly found related content from some of the body cultivation jade schools.
However, he was even further disappointed. Each of the jade scrolls clearly wrote that
strengthening channels was a very profound field.
Body cultivation first trained the flesh, then the tendons, and then the bones before the channels.
With his weak zhuji cultivation, he couldnt even start to think about it.
Zuo Mo was not discouraged. This was not the first time he had encountered an obstacle like
this. The jade scrolls that he had struggled so much to obtain were unclear in many places. That
required him to think about it himself. If one path did not work, he would change to another. He
could always find a workable solution.
Since it was not possible to strengthen his channels, that meant that he could not carry out his
idea of purifying ling energy in his channels.
What about on the outside? If he could purify the ling energy outside the channels, then the ling
energy he would absorb into his body would become pure ling power. Zuo Mo sank into deep
thought. How could he purify ling energy outside the body to turn it into ling power? Inside the
body, ling energy was invisible and non-tangible. How could he purify it?
Each question seemed to be beyond his limits, but he did not plan on giving up.

For this sword test conference, who are we sending? Yan Le looked at Sect Leader Pei Yuan
Ran. There was only the two of them in Wu Kong Hall. Xin Yan was in seclusion forging. Shi
Feng Rong was in seclusion making dan.
Naturally, Wei Sheng will have to go. I just dont know if hell come out in time, Sect Leader
said,Zuo Mo can also go.
Ha ha, the little guy ran to make a fuss at Ling Ying Sect. I heard he was extremely impressive,
Yan Le smiled. The Ling Ying Sect, just by relying on their wealth had always been extremely
arrogant towards the other sects of Dong Fu. There were many that thought them an eyesore.
En, Zuo Mos talent is not bad. Its a pity he cannot focus on the sword, Sect Leader said with
regret,It could be considered an honorable defeat, that he lost on Chang Hengs hands.
Yan Le shrugged carelessly, Its good even if he does not focus on the sword. In the future, the
sect needs people like Zuo Mo.

Sect Leader nodded and did not say anything. He turned to say, You can go take a look at Luo
Li. The incident last time really shocked him. He should have improved.
Just these three? Yan Le asked.
En, just these three, The sect leader added, theres no rush. Theres still time until the
preliminary sword test conference.
Yan Le excitedly clenched his hands, Im looking forward to it. If Wei Sheng gets out in time,
he will definitely shock everyone.
The sect leader gave a light smile. Even though he did not say anything, but the flash of light in
his eyes revealed his thoughts.

The great harvest of Fiery Red flower once again bloated Zuo Mos purse. The price of Fiery
Red flower had risen again during this time, to now two and a half third-grade jingshi per tael.
The eighty mu of ling garden had, in total, produced twenty two catties of first grade Fiery Red
flower. Other than that, there was almost one catty of second-grade Fiery Red flower. The price
of second-grade Fiery Red flower had grown to sixty pieces of third-grade jingshi per tael.
Taking off the previous payment of sixty pieces of third-grade jingshi, in total, Zuo Mos income
was one thousand and ninety pieces of third-grade jingshi.
This was his biggest payout of jingshi yet.
To stop Pu Yao from secretly taking it like usual, Zuo Mo decided to attack first. Based on
income, Zuo Mo definitely was in the high ranks of Dong Fu, but all of his jingshi was stolen by
Pu Yao before they even got warm in his purse.
Pu Yao saw Zuo Mos nervousness, and mocked, Just one thousand pieces of third-grade
jingshi, its just two pieces of fourth-grade jingshi, do you have to be like this?
Zuo Mo was completely unaffected. Ill exchange it for something. He then added: That I can
use.
Pu Yao said slowly, Havent you been looking for a way to purify ling energy recently?
Zuo Mos mind became alert. Yes! Do you know how?
Theres nothing wrong with your idea. Pu Yao snickered, But you know too little. Even if you
have a good idea, you cannot solve it.

Ill exchange for this! Zuo Mo unhesitatingly said.


Hee hee. Pu Yao lightly swept his sleeve. A stream of clinks of jingshi hitting each other
sounded, but Zuo Mo did not feel pain this time. He only stared at Pu Yao, waiting for him to
keep talking.
Then I will teach you. In reality, this is a very simple method. Pu Yaos face resumed its
habitual indifference. Tsk tsk. Even though your idea is only superficial, but to think of it with
your skill level isnt easy. Pu Yaos indifference gradually disappeared without him noticing, his
voice becoming serious.
Xiuzhe, yao, mo, the three of them, the one that has the hardest time to create ling power is
xiuzhe, Seeing Zuo Mos surprised eyes, Pu Yao laughed lightly, You must find it weird, that
the xiuzhe who focus on ling poweras their primary have the hardest time with ling power. No
matter if it is yao or mo, they are born with the ability to communicate with nature. Like us yao,
once we are born, we can manipulate ling energy of the world. Mo, their bodies can
automatically absorb the ling energy of the world, and naturally get rid of impurities, that they
use to temper their body. They do not need to do anything for their blood and flesh to be filled
with ling energy. Based on natural talent, xiuzhe cannot be compared to us. However, they are
very good at learning. You have practiced many scriptures now. Do you know what is the core of
scriptures?
What is it? Zuo Mo, entranced, asked reflexively.
Formations, Pu Yaos eyes became extremely deep, as though he was looking through the ages,
Each scripture is a kind of formation. Scriptures, most of them are divided into parts. The first is
absorption. If it cannot take in ling energy of the world, then the scripture is useless. Then it is
forging. If it cannot purify the ling energy, then it is not useful, and would harm the user. After
that, it is storage. If it cannot store the power, its useless no matter how much is absorbed and
purified.
Zuo Mo was dumbstruck. No one had broken down scriptures like this before. Pu Yao stated it so
simply, without any part that was difficult to comprehend. Zuo Mo finely pondered it, and
instantly understood. It really was so!
Good scriptures, the efficiency of taking ling energy is higher, the purification is faster, and it
can store more ling power. Hm, its just this simple. Pu Yao sighed. You must be wondering
why us yaomo can naturally absorb ling energy? That is because us yaomo have natural
formations in our body. This is a blessing from nature! It is a pity that our intelligence is not as
great as xiuzhe, ignorant of the treasure in our possession. Millions of years, we only knew to act
according to our instinct, never thinking of the mechanisms behind it. Only when xiuzhe started

to rise did we start to study, but by that time, we were too far behind xiuzhe and could only
develop in two other directions.
Oh, thats off topic. Pu Yao suddenly gave a smile. Let us return to your question. Your
problem is easy to solve for all time. How about it, do you want to try?
Pu Yao was already extraordinarily beautiful. That smile, it seemed to light up the sea of
consciousness. Even Zuo Mo was shocked. He was suspicious that, if Pu Yao appeared in Dong
Fu, there wouldnt be a woman in Dong Fu that would be able to resist his spell. But, a male
growing up to look like this, it really was a crime!
What method? Zuo Mo asked, slightly hesitant. You had to reverse Pu Yaos words. If he said
something like it would be solved forever, then it most likely would be continuously troublesome
in the future.
Your luck isnt bad. You encountered me Pu Yao resumed his lazy expression, Didnt I
already say to you just now, yaomo can naturally gather ling energy and purify it. Coincidentally,
this kind of natural seal formation, I have a little knowledge.
Such a thing as good as this, how could those experts give up on it? Zuo Mo didnt quite
believe it. The yaomo that xiuzhe had captured could not be counted. If there really was some
secret on the bodies of yaomo, it should have been discovered long ago.
Ha! Pu Yao smiled mockingly, Theyve been angling for this thing for a long time. Pity,
nature blessed us Yao with this just so yaomo will not go extinct! How about it, want to try?
How high can it increase? Is there any side effects? Would it conflict with practicing
scriptures? Zuo Mo asked a string of questions.
Hee hee, how much can it increase, this depends on your body. At least, it would be multiple
times what it is now. Side effects? Of course there would some. In this world, is there anything
that is only beneficial? Losses and gains, I shouldnt have to teach you such a simple tenet. As to
cultivating scriptures, it wouldnt affect it, definitely wouldnt affect it. Pu Yao resolutely said.
Zuo Mo lowered his head, sinking into his thoughts. Pu Yao did not hurry him, idly sitting on the
gravestone.
For some reason, Zuo Mo had a feeling that the following decision would change and influence
his entire life. He did not know why he would have such a feeling. He had learned many things
from Pu Yao, but never had a feeling like this before. This feeling was so strong, so clear.
He was hesitant.

He had been very happy these recent days. Even though he was still worried about jingshi, but
everything was developing so well. He had improved step by step. Each day was very full. If he
kept going like this, he definitely wouldnt have to worry about jingshi in the future, and could
live a very good life. In the sect, he would also have a pretty good position.
He could study ling plants, could study dan-making, could study
But that repeated dream, like fate, it always seemed to accidentally guide him towards another
direction. Changing features and erasing the mind, his body was still carrying a past of unknown
hardship and cruelty
Head down, Zuo Mos hands fisted unconsciously, his entire body minutely trembling.
What was it that he wanted?
What was it that he could not avoid?
Translator Ramblings: Zuo Mo goes back to farming and gets some money. Then Pu Yao finally
introduces the world to Zuo Mo. A lot of weird information to build up the world and will
become important later. Pu is a very good teacher and his attitude about all three races is really
evident here.
Zuo Mo thinks of weird things to do like purifying ling energy outside the body because he
doesnt know anything about the world. Its like how he thought he could make yin fire beads but
didnt know that his cultivation was not enough. He breaks convention because he is not aware
where convention is. Of course, that also trips him up when he is not aware some people have
already invented certain things.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Five


Mo Matrix and Yao Seed
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, cactuar0, and
warlord212.
Chapter One Hundred And Five Mo Matrix And Yao Seed
Zuo Mo looked slightly scared at the variety of ling grasses and strange knick-knacks placed in
front of him, like three sticks of incense made from the ashes of burnt Sky Net Yao hair, a small
bottle of Bitter Dove Mo blood, a nauseatingly smelly Ferret Mo gallbladder

He had bought all those things according to Pu Yaos orders. He ran all over Dong Fu, and made
a trip to see He Rong before he managed to gather all of it. These weird things were all
extremely expensive. He spent all of the thousand pieces of third-grade jingshi. Pu Yao was
strangely generous this time, proactively taking out the jingshi.
These strange materials, there were all parts of some yaomos body. The corpses of yaomo killed
in the Yao Hunt would be speedily be broken down by skilled professional butchers to useful
parts. The bodies of yaomo were rich in ling energy, and had many wondrous effects so they
were used in great amounts in dan-making and forging. The organs and flesh of yaomo can be
added to dan, the hides of yaomo were usually abnormally strong and good materials to make
ling armor. Their teeth and claws could be forged into high-grade flying swords and talismans.
In thousands of years, the practice of the Yao Hunt had never stopped. Other than revenge, it was
mostly motivated by profit.
However, the dangers in the Yao Hunt were too high and the gains were not much. Therefore,
raising ling beasts had become popular. The attributes of ling beasts could not compare to the
yaomo, and the raw materials after killing the beasts were not as high-grade. It competed on the
numbers and the low cost. Even a small sect like Wu Kong Sword Sect had its own specialized
stables. It could be seen just how widespread raising ling beast livestock was.
Pu Yao had high demands for these materials. They had to come from yaomo and not ling beasts.
This was also why it was so expensive. Any material relating to yaomo were not cheap.
But
Zuo Mo looked at the strange things on the table and his heart shook. He felt that it seemed like
they were going to hold a dark ritual, and these strange fleshy organs were the tribute. He usually
studied formations and scriptures, and it was not as terrifying as this.
Theres nothing really good. We can only just compromise. Pu Yao said, slightly helplessly.
These things, they can just barely create the lowest kind of mo matrix.
Mo matrix? What is that? Zuo Mo pushed down the terror in his heart to ask.
This is very complicated to explain. Pu Yao picked up the materials and inspected as he talked,
You can think of them as a kind of formation, a natural formation. It is a formation made out of
blood, fur, feathers, and vitality. Hmph hmph, xiuzhe always want to decode the mystery of this,
but the mechanisms in here, its not so easy to crack.
Then what are we doing now?

Dont be dumb, do you have to ask me such a simple question? Pu Yao looked at Zuo Mo like
he was an idiot. Of course it is to make you a mo matrix.
Make a matrix? Mo matrixes can be made? Didnt you say no one has cracked it? Zuo Mo was
very shocked.
They cannot, that does not mean that I cannot. Pu Yao snorted, and said conceitedly, Before
He suddenly seemed to have realized something and closed his mouth.
Pu Yao didnt want to say it. Zuo Mo was curious but he didnt ask. Pointing at another pile of
ling grasses, he asked, These ling grasses? Also for the mo matrix? The materials on the table
had been clearly divided into two piles, one of ling grasses, another of yaomo parts.
That is to add something else to you. Pu Yao snickered, A very interesting thing.
Oh. Zuo Mo nodded, not understanding. Suddenly, he felt his eyelids became heavy, he was so
sleepy
Dont forget!
Even in death, you must not forget!
He was having a dream again. Zuo Mo sighed. He was like an indifferent spectator watching his
own dream. He knew that it was useless whatever he said, no one would reply to him, or rather,
this dream just wanted to give him a question.
He was waiting to wake up.
When he opened his eyes, he saw Pu Yaos handsome and enchanting face.
Welcome back! Pu Yao said smugly and with deep meaning.
Zuo Mo sat up and instantly felt pain. There seemed to be wounds over every part of his body.
He could smell the thick scent of blood in the air.
Was it successful? Zuo Mo was frightened by his own voice. It was completely dry.
Success? Im ashamed to use such good words for this kind of trash. But theres no way around
it. You are too poor. What you used were my funds. You have to pay me back soon. Pu Yao said,
slightly disdainful.

Seeing Zuo Mo grit his teeth in pain, Pu Yao seemed very happy. I added a very simple mo
matrix to your body. Oh, this matrix, I found it on the body of a Copper rhino. Its very primitive
and simple. It can automatically absorb in the ling energies from the surroundings and strengthen
your body. Your body will appear copper colored. Since you have been practicing [Vajra
Profound Sutra], you can use it as a disguise and no one would be able to see it.
Zuo Mo struggled up and instantly became alarmed. Two thick red lines went from the center of
his palms, following his arms to his chest and intersecting there. From the chest, they separated
again downwards, following his legs to the center of his feet. The intersection at his chest was
like the two red lines had made a knot.
Seeing Zuo Mos wariness, Pu Yao said unconcernedly, Dont worry, after two days, these lines
will merge into your flesh. Even if someone has something like Sky Eyes, they cant see it.
Zuo Mo couldnt help but sigh. If he went about with such an alarming tattoos like this, he
wouldnt have good days to live.
This mo matrix is relatively simple so dont expect it to have many abilities. Pu Yao said
irresponsibly. You are just too poor. Without jingshi, there naturally isnt anything good.
Zuo Mo felt the space between his brows hurt and couldnt help but reach up. When his hand
touched his forehead, his fingers seemed to have encountered something abnormal.
What is that? Zuo Mo suddenly remembered that Pu Yao said he was adding something else.
Hee hee, a yao seed. Pu Yao was extremely smug. This thing cannot compare to a true yao
seed but for you, its more than enough.
Zuo Mo knew about yao seeds. Yao had yao seeds, mo had mo cores. This was the standard to
judge the importance of yaomo. Xiuzhe would also form gold cores, but this gold core was made
from ling energy and was not some tangible object. It would automatically dissipate after death.
Yao seeds and mo cores, they were tangible objects that grew in the body and were an extremely
important material. He had only heard of it before, but had never seen it.
Yao seeds? Zuo Mo asked in alarm. What does it do?
Just try and see. Pu Yao said.
Hearing this, Zuo Mo hurriedly started [Embryonic Breathing Spiritual Cultivation].
As it started, he instantly detected the difference. The ling energy in the surroundings competed
to rush into him. All the openings in his body naturally opened, the ling energy easily slipping

into his body. His flesh was like a wondrous filter net, easily filtering out the impurities of the
ling energy which turned to sparks of light that then entered his flesh and bones.
Zuo Mo was slightly dumbstruck. It really was as Pu Yao saidjust as easy as breathing. There
was none of the usual struggle. The ling energy seemed very close and intimate with him.
He was exhilarated!
With the mo matrix, the speed of his cultivation would multiply.
He thought about the yao seed that Pu Yao mentioned. Even though he did not know what a yao
seed looked like, but it definitely was related to the consciousness. As expected, he quickly found
the yao core on his forehead. It was a blood red crystal, a bit like the blood crystals on Pu Yaos
ears, but in terms of brightness and clarity, it was far worse.
What Zuo Mo found extremely wonderful was that, with a yao seed, the shape of his spirit had
transformed.
His consciousness had been like a ball of mist before. Now, his consciousness was like a
jellyfish, having lots of thin slender tentacles with the yao seed at the very center. These thin
spiritual tentacles, with Zuo Mo as the center, floated in the surroundings. Everything in the
surroundings was clearly mirrored in his mind. After he started cultivating his spirit, his sixth
sense had become extremely sensitive. With the yao seed, this sensitivity had multiplied.
His mind moved and those spiritual tentacles nimbly danced around him according to his wishes.
Having been worried beforehand, Zuo Mo finally could not disguise the glee inside. To say of
nothing else, just dan-making, his success rate would definitely improve dramatically.
The benefit from these two things, even if he had to pay a price, it was worth it!
With the mo matrix and the yao seed, the speed of his cultivation would increase multiple times.
Just as Zuo Mo was celebrating, Pu Yao broke in, Dont be happy too early. Ive never done this
mo matrix and yao seed to anyone before. If theres any side effects, you just have to deal with it
yourself. You need to study formations now. The speed of taking in ling energy is faster, but if
you cannot store it, its all useless.
Zuo Mo gradually calmed down from his joy.
Pu Yao was right. Right now, the rate of taking in ling energy was multiple times what it had
been, but if he could not solve the problem of storing it, it truly was useless.

Learn formations. Pu Yao said with a rare seriousness. Right now, you only need to study
formations.
Only study formations? Zuo Mo was slightly puzzled. He felt Pu Yaos worlds were too
definite.
Yes. Pu Yao explained. No matter if it is dan-making, or sword scripture, they are formations
in the end. You have to learn on your own. The formations of xiuzhe are too complex and broad,
yet completely different from the understanding of us yao. We have a hard time understanding
many things.
You cannot understand them? Zuo Mo didnt believe it. Even though he felt Pu Yao was just a
dumb yao, but in the matters of cultivation, one Pu Yao was worth a hundred of him. Something
that even Pu Yao could not understand, how could he understand it?
Extremely rarely, Pu Yao had a grave expression. He said something that Zuo Mo did not
understand, It has nothing to do with methods, it has to do with belief.
Even though he could not understand it, but Zuo Mo felt that Pu Yao was extremely serious when
he said this. It should be the most serious thing that Pu Yao had said up until now. He silently
memorized this sentence.
Then dan-making? Sword scriptures? Zuo Mo was still slightly hesitant.
Pu Yao had finally reached the end of his patience with Zuo Mo. Idiot, they are also formations.
Dont be tricked by appearances. In any case, just concentrate on formations.
I dont have jade scrolls Zuo Mo weakly said.
Pu Yao irresponsibly spread out his hands. I dont have a way either.
Suddenly, Pu Yao smiled darkly. Zuo Mos heart couldnt help but have a bad feeling. As
expected, he heard Pu Yao formally say, Alright. I feel there is a need to discuss the matter of
my payment.
Translator Ramblings: Just to put in perspective, the xiuzhe are killing intelligent, self-aware
beings for their body parts. Of course, this world is not our world so things are slightly different.
Pu is being a mad scientist! Zuo Mo gets tattooed up and a crystal in the middle of his forehead.
Guess whats the payment?

The cast list was updated slightly, but there isnt really anything important on there at the
moment.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Six


The Half-Finished Product Processing Maniac
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, warlord212 and
cactuar0.
My editors are amazing people who managed to edit this whole load of chapters, part of which
you have been reading the last few days, before their own holiday rush.
So thanks, editors!
Chapter One Hundred and Six The Half-Finished Product Processing Maniac
You know I do not have jingshi. Zuo Mo could only say.
Oh, you can just owe me. Pu Yao said unconcernedly, This time, you spent two pieces of
fourth-grade jingshi. Oh, adding on my wages, seeing that everyone is so familiar, lets give a
discount, just eight pieces of fourth-grade jingshi. In total, ten pieces of fourth-grade jingshi. Oh,
repay it in three months. One month over, it will be two times the number.
Zuo Mos limbs felt cold, Pu, this price is too outrageous
Oh, no no no, Im a Sky Yao, my appearance fee is very expensive! Pu Yao shamelessly said.
Ten pieces of fourth-grade jingshi, that was five thousand pieces of third-grade jingshi three
months
Zuo Mo felt dizzy. He made one last effort, This is impossible to complete!
Oh, dont worry, I like interest! Pu Yao gave an intoxicating smile.
In Dong Fu, Zuo Mo sat in the store, all his attention on controlling the Stalagmite fire. In that
ball of white flame, there was a glowing liquid boiling. A xiuzhe was standing at the side, not
daring to breathe, as he stared nervously at the milky white ball of flame.
Suddenly, the Stalagmite fire disappeared, a clear medicinal fluid floated silently in front of Zuo
Mo. A fragrance instantly spread out in the air. Zuo Mo skillfully urged the medicinal fluid into
the already prepared jade bottle. When the fluid entered the bottle, he instantly shoved a cork in.

Your Bell grass fluid, twenty pieces of third-grade jingshi. Zuo Mo expressionlessly said.
Bro, can you be a bit cheaper? This is the ninth time Ive come here! The xiuzhe pleaded.
Zuo Mo raised his expressionless face, My appearance fee is very expensive.
The other was speechless and could only painfully take out twenty-pieces of third-grade jingshi.
Zuo Mo didnt even look, just shoved it into the Hundred Treasures pouch at his waist before
closing his eyes to recover ling energy. After a while, he opened his eyes, Next one.
Li Ying Feng hurriedly let another person in. Ever since Zuo Mo had come to the store, she was
shocked at the popularity of the business. Zuo Mo Shidi had gotten a strange white fire from
somewhere that was extremely icy. Zuo Mo Shidi had also displayed his business skills. He
received all kinds of weird jobs, like purifying and making medicinal fluids, forging certain raw
materials. These jobs that she had never heard of before, Zuo Mo Shidi could do all of them.
She quickly found that all the jobs that Zuo Mo Shidi provided were middle-men jobs such as
purification. He actually did not take requests for dan-making. She had once been extremely
puzzled at this. Zuo Mo Shidi was most skilled in dan-making! Only later did she understand the
meaning of it. That was efficiency. Just making the intermediate product, with Zuo Mo Shidis
terrifying recovery rate, the efficiency was shockingly high.
He was like a human-shaped stove, not knowing exhaustion.
In comparison, Shidis terrifying control of fire did not shock her too much!
Up until now, Zuo Mo Shidi had not failed once. Li Ying Feng was amazed but not shocked. Zuo
Mo Shidi was a genius at dan-making. It was normal for him to be skilled at controlling fire. His
terrifying success rate quickly became famous in Dong Fu. Everyone knew that Dong Fu had a
store called the Wu Kong Grocery store that had a zombie-like guy who had godly talents at
controlling fire, and even rarer, it was a white cold fire. The grade of that white cold fire was not
high, but it was extremely powerful. The processed products that were created were all of high
quality.
Cold fire was hard to find in the first place, and the number of xiuzhe that had cold fire was
pitifully few. Usually, a xiuzhe that had a fire was either skilled in dan-making, cooking, or
forging. Who was willing to work on intermediate products? A xiuzhe that only made
intermediate products suddenly appearing out of nowhere, the xiuzhe that had a need instantly
flowed in.
This person was wearing a hat. When he saw Zuo Mo, his steps paused.

What do you want me to forge? Zuo Mo said, not even raising his head.
Fourth-grade Cold Magnet. The other said.
Zuo Mo was slightly surprised. He raised his head to glance at the other and shook his head, I
can only process third-grade. Fourth-grade is out of my limits. Please find someone else.
Stalagmite fire was only a second-grade fire seed. If it wasnt that his consciousness was strong,
and his ability to control fire was high, he could only process second-grade items. Even so, thirdgrade was Zuo Mos present limit. He didnt even need to think about the fourth-grade Cold
Magnet.
The other said in a deep voice, Can you cut this fourth-grade cold magnet into four pieces?
Cut? Zuo Mo thought and then said, I can try.
The other took out a black stone. Embedded in the rock was dots of blue ice. He handed it to Zuo
Mo.
Zuo Mo didnt take it, The payment will be two hundred pieces of third-grade jingshi.
Okay. The other replied simply.
Rich person! Zuo Mos heart was full of disdain but his hand quickly took this fourth-grade cold
magnet.
The reason that he had thought of making intermediate products was that he had been forced by
the demand for jingshi. After taking on the huge debt of five thousand pieces of third-grade
jingshi, Zuo Mo had to work his mind to find ways of earning jingshi. Planting Fiery Red flower
was a pretty good method, but that meant that he had to rent a ling garden five times what he had
rented before. What he felt helpless about that was, even if he used all the ling farmer spells he
had, the growing period of the Fiery Red flower wouldnt be shorter than five months!
He unhesitatingly dismissed this plan. If it went over a month, it would multiply. Five months
meant that Zuo Mo needed to pay back twenty thousand pieces of third-grade jingshi.
Without any other way, he could only plan around the Stalagmite fire.
Hoping that he could earn five thousand third-grade jingshi by selling dan in three months was
not realistic. After he finished learning, it would have been too late. An idea had suddenly
sparked and he thought of making intermediate products. He was extremely practiced at

purifying and concentrating ling grasses right now. The purification and tempering of forging
was not hard to learn.
Stalagmite fire was a rare cold fire, extremely suited for processing those yin and cold attributed
ling materials and ling grasses. The number of xiuzhe that had fire seeds was pitifully small,
those that had cold fire was even less, and Zuo Mo was the only one willing to make
intermediate products!
Originally, this business was not very profitable since it was just for intermediate profits and he
could only take the processing fee. However, after getting the yao seed, Zuo Mos control of fire
increased dramatically. The Stalagmite fire was almost alive in his hands and the efficiency was
astonishing. With the mo matrix, his ling energy recovery rate was extremely high. After
meditating for a little while, he would be back at full power.
Zuo Mo had not solved the problem of storing ling power. Even though his absorption rate of
ling energy had increased and the effects showed in tempering his body, but the increase in his
cultivation had been limited. Due to this problem, he had gone to discuss it with Pu Yao many
times. There was too much of a difference in the mo matrix from what Pu Yao had advertised and
the reality. Zuo Mo had requested a reduction in his debt.
In the face of reality, Pu Yao could only admit it and reduce Zuo Mos debt by one thousand
third-grade jingshi.
The debts of four thousand third-grade jingshi caused Zuo Mo to take a breath of relief. He
quickly found the most effective method of using the mo matrix. Since its ability was to increase
the speed of taking in ling energy, then he would rapidly use up the ling energy, then quickly
replenish it. If he repeated it like that, wouldnt it work?
He quickly found that the yao seed with the Stalagmite fire was the perfect combination with the
mo matrix!
Other than the business being average the first few days, the following days, the business was
extremely hot because xiuzhe were coming in to Dong Fu from the outside to attend the Dong Fu
Sword Test Conference. Zuo Mos processing fee was not cheap. Basically, it started from twenty
pieces of third-grade jingshi. If it was something good, it would immediately jump to forty
pieces of third-grade jingshi.
Yelling two hundred pieces of third-grade jingshi was just him being outrageous, and he had not
thought that the other would unhesitatingly agree.
According to his normal income, he would take in, on average, two hundred pieces of jingshi per
day. According to this speed, he would quickly pay off his debts. This kind of business depended

on the time. If this wasnt the time of the Dong Fu Sword Test, just with the local Dong Fu
xiuzhe, it would have been good if he could earn forty piece of jingshi every day.
However, he had gained quite a lot from this kind of furious labor.
He managed to learn and arrange the Stalagmite fire into a Three-Turn fire formation which
could greatly increase the effect of the fire to the point of being able to melt some fourth-grade
ling grasses. However, he did not easily take jobs involving fourth-grade materials. The main
reason was the risk was too high. If he accidentally ruined someones material, then he couldnt
even pay them back.
The price of fourth-grade materials, it was sky high.
This time, the other only asked him to cut the Cold Magnet. Zuo Mo felt the risk was not that
high. Since the other had not even negotiated on his opening price of two hundred pieces of
third-grade jingshi, he felt the profit was extremely high.
Speaking of sharpness, nothing was as sharp as flying swords. However, some materials could
not be cut with flying swords because it would ruin the material. Cold Magnet was one of those
materials. There were many considerations in cutting a Cold Magnet. The magnetism was not
evenly distributed. It was extremely complicated to try to preserve the magnetism of each piece.
However, this was not too hard for Zuo Mo. The yao seed seemed to have been born for
[Embryonic Breathing Spiritual Cultivation]. Even he felt afraid at the speed of improvement in
his spirit. After his consciousness became stronger, it didnt require much effort to inspect thirdgrade materials. It was not that easy for fourth-grade material, but if he used those spiritual
tentacles, he could quickly finish it. Other than increasing his control fire, it allowed him to study
the material very well, and made him much more efficient at processing it.
Since it involved two hundred pieces of third-grade jingshi, Zuo Mo was extremely careful. Each
time he worked on a fourth-grade material, it was a rare experience.
Closing his eyes, he inspected this middle-sized Cold Magnet multiple times with his spiritual
tentacles. After he was completely certain of the magnet location, he opened his eyes.
The black-gauze hat wearing customer only saw Zuo Mo holding the cold magnet and resting for
a long time before suddenly opening his eyes.
The Cold Magnet in Zuo Mos hand slowly floated into the air. At the same time, a milky white
flame quietly appeared, the surroundings becoming cold.
Behind the black gauze, a surprised expression flashed in the eyes.

Zuo Mo sat calmly, no expression on his face. Only that pair of eyes could make others feel his
concentration.
The pair of hands half resting before his chest started to move and change, stirring a string of
afterimages.
The Stalagmite fire floating in the air turned into an extremely thin white flame thread,
swimming around the cold magnet like an extremely slender white snake.
Suddenly, the snaking fire thread speeded up. The black gauze hat wearing customer felt the
white fire was like lightning, circling around, the head reaching the tail!
A Three-Turn fire formation suddenly formed!
Translator Ramblings: Anyone want to do the conversion to second-grade jingshi? Zuo Mo is
obviously starting to learn things from Pu Yao.

Chapter One Hundred and Seven Seeing Shixiong Again
With the Three-Turn fire formation forming, the temperature of the room became cold.
Even the hat-wearing customer couldnt help but move back a step. The coldness exuded from
the roiling fire formation seeped into the bones.
Three-Turn fire formation was not a complex seal formation. It could increase the power of fire
seeds, regardless of if it was cold or hot fire. Each extra turn would double the power. The most
Zuo Mo could complete right now was three turns. Four times the power for him was completely
enough.
His eyes focused, all of Zuo Mos consciousness was awakened. Even though he had a yao core
now, and his spiritual control had increased, but the difficulty of a Three-Turn fire was still high
for him. Using his consciousness to carefully control the Stalagmite fire, he felt the ling power
inside his body disappear at an alarming speed and the exhaustion that accompanied it.
Zuo Mo suppressed it, carefully controlling his consciousness.

With a light hiss, the Cold Magnet fell down in four pieces.
Zuo Mo released a breath. Two hundred pieces of third-grade jingshi. Speaking of it, a persons
limits was a very scary thing. Not long ago, his yearly income was just a few dozen second-grade
jingshi. In the turn of an eye, his one-time income was two hundred pieces of third-grade jingshi.
Just based on income, Zuo Mo definitely had entered the levels of high-earners in Dong Fu, but
he had never felt that he was wealthy. Quite the opposite. He found that he seemed to have sunk
into a strange cycle of lacking money more and more! He obviously was earning increasingly
more jingshi but he was eternally penniless. It was better even now, he had shoulder huge debts.
However, he quickly released it. These days, what things were free? He had already gotten a
cheap bargain. If there wasnt Pu Yao, he might not have these debts, but he would not have
[Embryonic Breathing Spiritual Cultivation], no yin fire bead, no Stalagmite fire. He might not
even have successfully entered zhuji.
Success. Zuo Mo handed the four pieces of cold magnet to the customer.
The hat-wearing person took the cold magnet and praised, Brother Zuos control of fire is truly
amazing! He then crisply paid two hundred pieces of third-grade jingshi.
You are too complimentary. The majority of Zuo Mos attention was on the two hundred pieces
of third-grade jingshi, and he responded absentmindedly.
Is Brother Zuo going to register for the sword test conference? The other seemed to want to
have a discussion with Zuo Mo.
No. Zuo Mo didnt have the time to talk with the other. The Three-Turn fire formation had
almost cleaned out all of his ling energy just now. Even though the mo matrix was continuously
strengthening his body, he still felt uncomfortable.
After getting the mo matrix, [Vajra Profound Sutra] had improved the fastest. In a short period of
time, Zuo Mo had reached the third level of [Vajra Profound Sutra]. When he channeled it, even
the flesh under his skin started to have dots of gold. This was the Golden Flesh Clothing.
[Vajra Profound Sutra] was not a quick scripture. According to what was written, people usually
had to practice for five or six years in order to reach the third level of Golden Flesh Clothing.
The fourth level, Red Lotus Flowing Gold needed ten years. After reaching Golden Clothing
of Flesh, the defense strength rose. The entire body would be like a piece of gold, very hard to
cut with a normal flying sword.
Zuo Mos body was much stronger than before. But for some strange reason, his physique was
still thin and weak. Adding on his trademark zombie face, he was easy to recognize.

The ling power that the Three-Turn fire formation had taken was too much. He desperately
needed to recover now. Seeing the other did not seem to want to leave, he had to raise his head,
Do you have something else?
Haha, Ill come find Brother Zuo in a few days. The other laughed before leaving.
Zuo Mo was too lazy to pay attention, closing his eyes to start [Embryonic Breathing Spiritual
Cultivation]. A while later, his mind had recovered. At the side, Li Ying Feng saw his state and
hurriedly yelled, Next one.
Other than jingshi, Zuo Mo gained many other things. The requirements of each customer were
different. The things he needed to process and make were different. On average, he would have
to process around ten strange things each day. Some were ling grasses, some were ores, someone
had even taken out a Snow Bear yao gallbladder.
Just ling grasses, he had processed no less than a few hundred types these few days. His
experience had grown and it would be great help for him in dan-making. He celebrated making
the decision before. If he was in the sect, he wouldnt have seen so many ling grasses, much less
the rarer specimens.
It was a pity that the Stalagmite fire was a cold fire, and could not process many things. Most of
the materials he encountered were yin and cold.
What? You cant make it? If you cant make it, why are you opening shop? A man was holding
a third-grade fire jade, swearing.
I have a cold fire. It is not suited for fire and yang materials. Zuo Mo said calmly.
Damn, you wasted my time, you have to pay me for my losses
The others voice suddenly stopped. He looked at Zuo Mo with a face full of terror, frozen to his
spot, not daring to move.
Zuo Mo serenely took back his sword essence, Im sorry. Why dont we both pardon each
other? It was not the first time something like this had happened. Zuo Mo was more
experienced now.
The man didnt say anything before leaving, crestfallen.
Time was important!

Zuo Mo could deeply feel the importance of time. An inch of light was an inch of gold, there was
nothing more true than this!
Fragrant Fall leaves, Lotus Texture branch, Lapis Lapuzi Light stone, Eternal River stone
After a whole day, Zuo Mo worked until his mind was numb. He finally couldnt persist
anymore, yelling, Everyone, come tomorrow.
According to the line, Li Ying Feng gave each person a wooden card carved with a number. The
lineup tomorrow would start according to the number on the card. Zuo Mo released a breath. He
really made a profit today. A gigantic order worth two hundred pieces of third-grade jingshi, it
was a whole day worth of work.
As usual, he gave Li Ying Feng a third-grade jingshi. This was for the sect since he was
borrowing the shop from the sect. After seven or eight days, he would be able to clear this
enormous debt. That made him feel much better.
Just going to rest, Zuo Mo heard a call from behind him, Shidi!
Zuo Mo stopped in his steps. Turning, he saw Wei Sheng Shixiong standing outside the doorway
to the store.
Shixiong! Zuo Mo happily ran out. Wei Sheng seemed a totally different person than when he
had bid farewell last time. Even though he was still wearing a short worn tunic like before, but
the sharp sword essence that swarmed restlessly around his body last time had completely
disappeared. Wei Sheng Shixiongs appearance was average in the first place. With this attire, he
didnt have any presence. His entire person seemed like an extremely normal low-level xiuzhe.
From this, it could be seen that Wei Sheng Shixiongs cultivation had increased greatly!
Very quickly, Zuo Mo became even more shocked. Wei Sheng Shixiong had broken through to
ningmai! His consciousness was extremely sensitive and he had fought with Chang Heng who
had been on the verge of ningmai, causing him to instantly detect it.
How how was this possible?
When Shixiong had gone into the sword cave, now he had successfully entered ningmai!
Zuo Mo had thought that his own progression could be considered monstrous and that had been
because Pu Yao was there. But Shixiong, when Zuo Mo had gone to the sword cave with Pu Yao
before, he hadnt found anything special about it.

Shixiong was a true genius!


Zuo Mo had heard all kinds of praises these days and became alert now. He only had happiness
in his heart. He felt that Shixiongs achievement was extremely natural. If a person like Shixiong
was buried and unknown, then it would be strange.
When did Shixiong come out? Zuo Mo asked dumbly. He suddenly thought of something,
Shixiong, I entered zhuji!
Li Ying Feng heard the noise and ran out. Seeing Wei Sheng, a happy expression came onto her
face, Shixiong!
Wei Sheng first greeted Li Ying Feng before his eyes landed on Zuo Mo and forthrightly
laughed, Lets go drink! Us brothers will drink until we are drunk!
The night was like water, dots of starlight scattering.
Wei Sheng and Zuo Mo were sitting on the rooftop, the wind blowing as they gulped down
alcohol.
This isnt bad! Where did Shidi get this? Wei Sheng could help but take a few more mouthfuls.
Zuo Mo was already slightly tipsy, He he, this is Wang Shaos alcohol. Wang Shao wanted to
buy Golden Crow pills. Since Shixiong came, how can there be no alcohol? I went to get some
from him.
Ha ha! This is nice, nice! Wei Sheng leaned back and swallowed.
In the yard underneath, Li Ying Feng kept on shaking her head. Wei Sheng Shixiong who was
usually so calm, and Zuo Mo Shidi who usually was so wooden and indifferent, once they drank
alcohol, they seemed to be completely different people.
Shixiong managed to be in time for the sword test conference. Theres so many people this year.
I saw many strong people these days. Zuo Mo slanted his eyes and drunkenly said, However,
Shixiong needs to beat them all, beat them into the ground!
Looking at the charmingly pleasant Zuo Mo, Wei Sheng roared with laughter, Yes! Beat all of
them!
Zuo Mo snickered and swallowed some more alcohol. Holding the jar, he suddenly became
silent.

Detecting Zuo Mos abnormality, Wei Sheng asked concernedly, Shidi has something on your
mind?
Shixiong, what do you think people live for? Zuo Mo asked after a beat.
What do people live for? Wei Sheng automatically straightened his spine, his eyes looking into
the distance, I do not know what other people live for. My thoughts are very simple. I want to
see what this sword, when it reaches the extreme, looks like.
Sword at the extreme? Zuo Mo muttered. His eyes also looked into the distance. Sitting on the
rooftop, they could see the night scenery of Dong Fu, the distant lights, and the barely
perceptible calls. He shook his head, Before, I wanted to live better so I studied ling farming.
But now, I want to become strong.
Become strong? Wei Sheng turned his head and said in surprise, Why?
There was bitterness in Zuo Mos voice, To find what I have lost and cannot forget. He didnt
tell Shixiong that his features had been changed and his mind erased. If Shixiong knew, he would
be furious. There was no need to make Shixiong also unhappy over his own personal matters.
Wei Sheng comforted him, Dont rush, Shidi. You will eventually remember your past.
Everyone in Wu Kong Sword Sect knew that Zuo Mo had amnesia. Wei Sheng assumed that Zuo
Mo was depressed over that today.
Ha ha. Yes, what would come will always come! Today, it is the reunion of us brothers. I really
shouldnt say such depressing things! Lets keep drinking! Zuo Mo raised the alcohol jar and
swallowed.
Haha! Wei Sheng also gave a wide smile and raise the alcohol jar, Drink!
Translator Ramblings: Wei Sheng and Zuo Mo get drunk. Wei Sheng is now a whole stage above
Zuo Mo. Zuo Mo keeps working away at his debts. Zuo Mo is a sad drunk.

Eight Two Paths

Chapter One Hundred and Eight Two Paths

Wei Sheng Shixiong left Dong Fu early in the morning.


Zuo Mo resumed his furious life of making jingshi.
It really exceeded my expectations. You actually managed to repay all of it in such a short
amount of time. Pu Yao said with slight regret.
Zuo Mo felt his entire body was light. The enormous debt had given him great pressure these
past days. He asked about another problem, Pu, has there been any new developments about
storing ling power?
Pu Yao shrugged, Nope.
The rate that Zuo Mo absorbed ling energy was multiple times after than before, but strangely, if
the ling energy that was absorbed was not quickly used, they would gradually dissipate, and
could not be stored inside. For any xiuzhe, the amount of ling power represented their cultivation.
If they didnt have ling power, basically, they could not cast more than seventy percent of all
spells. The higher the spell, the more ling power it required.
He was very suspicious it was caused by the mo matrix that Pu Yao had carved into his body. He
could clearly feel the difference of progression in his cultivation after the mo matrix was carved.
He was extremely worried.
Pu Yao, if I cannot store ling power, its hard for my cultivation to increase. If my cultivation
cannot increase He wanted Pu Yao to recognize that this was a serious problem.
Pu Yao was unconcerned, What does that have to do with me? I delivered the product.
You renyao! Zuo Mo instantly exploded due to Pu Yaos terrible attitude and started swearing,
Lying to me about this mo matrix and yao seed. Now, you put out this disgusting demeanor of
not caring! In the future, dont think about getting one piece of jingshi from ye!
I can take it myself. Pu Yao was not angry and giggled.
Zuo Mo smiled angrily, From today, ye wont take one jingshi, only items, jade scrolls! Go take
it! Ye will see where you take it from!
Oh. Pu Yao rubbed his chin as he talked to himself, That is a problem.
Zuo Mo smiled coldly as he looked at Pu Yao, wanting to chop this androgynous guy into meat
dross! This dross! False profit! Greedy, dishonest, amoral, evil pervert!

Pu Yao innocently spread his hands, I hadnt thought this would happen either. Things like
formations, they are too complex for us yaomo. However, there isnt anything that cannot be
solved in this world. I can help give you ideas. Hee hee, it can be free this time!
Zuo Mo suppressed the impulse to tear apart this guy, asking, Keep going.
Look, since the growth of your ling power is slow now, you can work from two different areas.
Pu Yaos thin lips bent into a curve, One is to work at the root. Your body is like a complete
formation. If one attribute has changed, then it is definitely that a part of the formation has
changed. You only need to find the cause of the change to be able to correct the formation and
the cause will be resolved easily.
How can I find it? Zuo Mo had to admit that what Pu Yao said was very reasonable.
I cant help you there. In any case, you have to work through seal formations. You xiuzhe are
much better than us yaomo at formations. Pu Yao said, shaking his head.
After all this, he just spoke useless words! The rage inside suddenly shot up!
Rather than wasting your time complaining about things that have already happened, it would
be better to start studying early. Pu Yao snickered.
These words instantly extinguished Zuo Mos rage. Pu Yao was right. Since it was like this
already, then complaining about something that had already happened was just wasting time. He
raised his head, And the other area?
Oh, that ones much easier. Since your cultivation is growing slowly now, why dont you
increase your control over ling power? Smugness flashed through Pu Yaos eyes, If you can
precisely control every strand of ling power, the same amount of ling power, you can use it to
cast more spells. Dont envy other people for having more jingshi, you just have to use each
jingshi on the edge of the blade.
Precise control? Zuo Mo instantly understood. When he had been in lianqi, this had been a
question that he would frequently ponder because he needed to cast [Little Art of Cloud and
Rain] for many ling fields. Just like Pu Yao had said, he needed to use every single drop of ling
power effectively. However, after he entered zhuji, his life had quickly become wealthy and he
had gradually lost sight of this problem.
Right! Like the processing and purification you have done these days. You need to be sparse in
using ling power. Something that can be done with one strand of ling power, you should not use
two. When you can precisely control every strand of ling power, you will find that you only need

a tiny bit of ling power to cast a spell that you used to need lots of ling power to do. Pu Yao
added, Most wealthy tycoons, when they started, they were like this too.
The previous length of words, Zuo Mo had uncontrollably been enhancedenchanged. Pu Yaos
figure suddenly seemed much larger. But with the words he added after, he instantly shrunk back.
Puh! This scum!
As the victim, Zuo Mo was seething with righteous fury. His mind, however, kept on pondering
what Pu Yao had said.
Li Ying Feng found that Zuo Mo Shidis situation these past days was not normal. The speed he
worked clearly had slowed down, and after each job, he would sit there in a daze. He was like a
completely different person than before. Was it that he had made enough jingshi? She couldnt
help but think. Shidi should take a rest. These few days, no one was clearer than her just how
much jingshi Shidi had earned.
Even now, she almost couldnt believe that this wooden and cold Shidi had such a terrifying
ability to make jingshi. The jingshi he had made by himself was worth five months of the gross
income for the store she was managing. This was an extremely shocking number. If Shidi was in
ningmai, she wouldnt find it so strange. But he was only zhuji. She had never heard of a zhuji
disciple that could earn so much.
Maybe, Shidi was a genius too.
Very quickly, her thought seemed to have been proven. Shidi still took business, but he did not
accept jingshi, only jade scrolls for payment. However, what she found strange was that Shidi
seemed like any other jade scroll collector, accepting all kinds of jade scrolls, as long as he had
never seen it before. After observing for a few days, she found that the jade scrolls that Shidi
liked best were formations.
Shidi was really smart! She praised silently. Their sect was a sword xiu sect. The most they had
were sword scriptures, and the rest were pitifully little. With Shidis intelligence, he was suited
for studying formations. It would be of great benefit to his dan-making in the future. She had a
feeling that Fourth Shigu may not be able to teach Zuo Mo Shidi anything in the future. At Zuo
Mo Shidis age, Fourth Shigu wasnt this strong!
Formations was necessary knowledge for all cultivators. It was the most basic of all basics. Danmaking, forging, jinzhi, all of them were connected to formations. This was something everyone
knew, but even if they knew, if they didnt have the conditions, they could not learn it. Wu Kong
Sword Sect was not some rich sect. Where would they get the wealth to collect these jade
scrolls?

She suddenly felt it a bit pitiful. If Shidi was in a large sect, he might be even stronger!
Sky Fragrance liquid. This is the limit of what I can process it. Zuo Mo tiredly handed a small
jade bottle to the customer.
The customer hurriedly took it. Taking out the cork, a expression of joy made its way onto his
face, and he praised, Master Zuos spell is really amazing! Spectacular! He carefully put the
jade bottle away and then bid farewell before rushing away.
Zuo Mo did not stand, but took out the jade scroll that he had just received. He couldnt help but
feel slightly uplifted.
To process that sky fragrance liquid, he had really done everything he could to barely process it
and received this jade scroll in payment. He did not know which sect had passed down this jade
scroll. It seemed quite old. There were three formations inside, all of them extremely special.
Pu Yao came out. He was extremely dissatisfied with Zuo Mos recent actions, I told you two
paths. You arent following the rules!
Really? To have tripped Pu Yao up, Zuo Mo felt extremely good. He slowly put the jade scroll
away and glanced at Pu Yao, saying, Did we have an agreement? I am going according to what
you pointed out! You told me to study formations, but you dont have any formations jade
scrolls. So I have to get them myself!
Pu Yao paused. He finally remembered that they really didnt have an agreement last time. He
suddenly raised his head to smile, Right, right, hee hee
Looking at Pu Yaos dark smile, a cold feeling rose in Zuo Mos heart.
Dont be afraid, dont be afraid! To get one over this renyao, its worth it even if ge will suffer a
bit! Zuo Mo hurriedly comforted himself.
After Pu Yao disappeared, Zuo Mo quickly sank back into his work.
In this period of time, his control of ling power had increased quickly. After Pu Yao pointed out
the problem, he started to pay attention to his technique in this area, becoming even more
miserly in using ling power to process materials. However, even though he progressed quickly,
he was still unsatisfied. It was still hard to avoid wasting ling power in unnecessary places.
He quickly found the crux of the problem. To be able to perfectly use ling power, it was
impossible to achieve it just by relying on the precision of using ling power. It also required

having a deep understanding of the formations used. Only when the two were both present would
the use of ling power be most efficient.
Because he only took jade scrolls in payment, Zuo Mos business received a bit of side-effects.
But the people who came to him were mostly zhuji xiuzhe of some skill. They usually would
have one or two pretty good jade scrolls. Quickly, the customers knew that Zuo Mo preferred
formation jade scrolls. They would try to pick one or two quality jade scrolls. Zuo Mos actions
were not strange. The stronger the xiuzhe, especially xiuzhe in non-combat professions, when
their skills grew, their need for jingshi would increasingly become smaller.
These kinds of skilled craftsmen, they usually would have many weird and strange demands.
Demands like jade scrolls or rare materials were actually the most common.
Even though he took fewer jobs than before, but the number of jade scrolls that Zuo Mo
possessed grew at an astonishing rate.
These jade scrolls came from all areas. The great majority were normal things, but there were a
few of high quality. The jade scroll he had just received was one of those.
Suddenly, Li Ying Feng walked to Zuo Mos side with a weird expression and whispered a few
words to him.
Translator Ramblings: Whats a little bit of side effects? Its only just your cultivation stops
growing when your main goal is to grow your cultivation. Pu has been really helpful these
last chapters, thats the power of jingshi.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Nine


Inky Black Lotus Seed
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter One Hundred and Nine Inky Black Lotus Seed
Three ningmai xiuzhe have come. Li Ying Fengs words made Zuo Mo pause.
Three ningmai
Since Zuo Mo had started this business, it wasnt that there wasnt ningmai who had come. The
hat-wearing person who needed the Cold Magnet cut last time should have been a ningmai. Zuo
Mo loved it and hated it when ningmai came to him. What he loved was that the payment they

could give was far higher than normal people. What he hated was the things they needed him to
process would be of high difficulty. High difficulty meant high risk. If it failed, Zuo Mo could
not afford to pay his debts. As to not paying? He didnt even need to think about it. The others
power was much higher than him. If a conflict happened, the one that would lose would be him.
Now three had come together!
Hmph, a zhuji guy dare to posture in front of us! Provoke me, Ill burn this place down!
Third Brother, dont speak nonsense!
The voices passed clearly from the door. Clearly, the three people were starting to be dissatisfied.
Zuo Mo felt the start of a headache. He could only pass, Please come in!
The three people walked in. The one at the front was a red-robed male, striding confidently and
projecting an aura of power. At his left was an eagle-nosed male, expression dark. It could be
seen with a glance that he wasnt an easy-going person. On the right of the red-robed male was a
brawny man whose face was set in a snarl. His body was like a mountain of meat. When he came
in, he started to look everywhere.
Greetings to Master Zuo. The red-robed leader had a slight smile as he saluted with folded
hands to Zuo Mo in a bow.
Greetings to the three Elders! Zuo Mo didnt dare to posture, standing and raising his folded
hands to return the greeting. Seniority among xiuzhe was extremely complex and hard to manage
so most of the time, everyone measured according to cultivation. Zuo Mos cultivation was one
stage lower than the other, so he was naturally a junior.
The three seemed to be extremely satisfied with Zuo Mos attitude. Even the dark face of the
eagle-nosed man relaxed slightly.
Master Zuo is too courteous. The red-robed male smiled, stating his purpose, Coming here,
its because we have something to ask. Following, he took out a lotus seed that was entirely
black. This fourth-grade Inky Black Lotus seed has an extremely hard outer coat and cannot be
cut open by flying sword. Coming this time, its asking Master Zuo to take off the outer coat. We
have heard about Master Zuos rules and this jade scroll is a complete set of [Skyring Moon
Sound Formation]. This formation is the finest among fourth-grade formations and has many
special attributes. We heard that Master Zuo likes formations. This [Skyring Moon Sound
Formation] will be payment.
But Ill say the ugly first. If you ruin it, I wont forgive you! The snarling man rumbled.

Third Brother, dont speak nonsense! The red-robed man reproached. He turned to say to Zuo
Mo, Master Zuo, dont listen to him. You just have to focus on processing it.
Looking at the three, Zuo Mos back had already been soaked in sweat at some unknown time.
These three were all very powerful. Zuo Mo wouldnt be a match for even one of them. The
three of them together, he wouldnt even have the chance to escape. Having climbed up from an
outer sect disciple, he was very good at perception and knew that none of these three were good
people. Dont see that the red-robed man spoke so friendly, but if he really ruined the Inky Black
Lotus seed, he definitely wouldnt have a good ending.
Zuo Mos consciousness was above other people. There was an energy of blood fiends
surrounding the three. Even though it was not as terrifying as the blood fiends he saw in the
sword cave, but they exuded an extremely faint viciousness. The three used some unknown
method to disguise the energy of the blood fiends but how could they conceal it from Zuo Mos
consciousness?
This business was not an easy one to take! This was Zuo Mos first response.
He shook his head, My sincere apologies for having the three elders come here for nothing. This
one is only in zhuji, and my fire seed is only second-grade. The fourth-grade Inky Black Lotus
seed really is not in my abilities! His words were sincere. He was not afraid that the three would
inspect his cultivation and fire seed so he was extremely honest.
The red-robed man smiled slightly but did not speak. The eagle-nosed man beside him said
darkly, If you can process fourth-grade cold magnet, how come you cannot do a fourth-grade
lotus seed?
The snarling large man widened his bell-sized eyes, unreasonably stating, Im telling you, if you
are working, you have to take it, if you are not working, you still have to take it! Otherwise, Ill
tear down your little shop!
The red-robed male chuckled and presented the jade scroll on his hands to Zuo Mo, Master Zuo,
do not refuse yet. Take a look at the formation inside this jade scroll. Finishing, he raised his
head to look at Li Ying Feng who was behind Zuo Mo, saying warmly, Miss, why dont you put
down the messenger seal in your sleeve? Lets not have a disagreement.
Zuo Mo silently thought the other was good. The three, with just a few words, used all kinds of
attacks. He instantly could not bear it anymore. Motioning for Li Ying Feng not to be impulsive,
he bore the pressure to say, Elder might have had mistaken information. This one had once
taken a job of fourth-grade Cold Magnet, but it was only cutting, not processing.

The red-robed mans face became slightly dark, saying discontentedly, Is Master Zuo not giving
face?
Zuo Mo instantly felt his body freeze, as though he was constrained by something, unable to
move. At the side, Li Ying Fengs face was bloodless, staring in shock at the three.
Fine! Ill take it! Zuo Mo saw the situation was worsening and could only grit his teeth and
agree.
Ha ha, Master Zuo is a smart person. Dont worry, if you can successfully process it, this jade
scroll, us three people wont let Master Zuo make a loss. The red-robed male laughed as though
nothing had happened.
The pressure around Zuo Mos body instantly decreased. Looking at this red-robed male, his
heart was cold. This person looked warm but, in reality, he was vicious. If he did not successfully
process it today, he would have a very bad ending. Wu Kong Sword Sect was very far from here.
If something really did happen, the shishu from the sect wont get here in time.
He didnt go to take the jade scroll, but took the Inky Black Lotus seed. He was not concerned
with the jade scroll anymore. It would be lucky if he kept his little life this time.
A hint of approval made its way onto the red-robe males face. The three moved to one side. The
eagle-nosed man glanced at Li Ying Feng, his warning implicit.
Zuo Mo did not waste words, and started to inspect this Inky Black Lotus seed.
The Inky Black Lotus seed was the fruit of the Inky Black Lotus flower after it bloomed. Inky
Black Lotus was an extremely uncommon ling grass. It usually grew in extremely evil places,
like the miasma filled bogs. After accumulating and absorbing all kinds of poisons over time, its
leaves were a rotten white, and the flower was as black as ink. The most valuable was the Inky
Black Lotus seed it produced.
The Inky Black Lotus would absorb all kinds of poisons that would mix inside its body and
produce a new kind of poison. When the lotus produced its seed, all the strong poisons inside its
body would gather in this little Inky Black Lotus seed. The lotus seed would land in the peat and
once again germinate and grow into a new lotus flower. It would continuously absorb the miasma
and poison, forming a new Inky Black Lotus seed. The grade of the inky black seed was
determined by the number of cycles it went through.
The Inky Black Lotus seed in front of him was fourth-grade. That meant that it had gone through
four cycles of rebirth. That was extremely valuable and rare. The poison inside the lotus seed
must be extremely strong!

Holding the Inky Black Lotus seed, Zuo Mos mouth became dry. This was the first time he was
processing such a poisonous ling grass. It would be false to say he was not nervous. The outer
coat of the Inky Black Lotus seed was extremely hard. It was also due to this coat which could
not be easily broken by flying swords that the poison inside did not leak out. Otherwise, Zuo
Mos fingers would quickly rot and die, the poison would quickly spread and, in a short period of
time, he would turn into a pile of bones.
Even third-grade detoxification dan could not stop the toxins of the Inky Black Lotus seed. Also,
Zuo Mos detoxification dan was only second-grade.
Li Ying Feng usually took care of the store and naturally had heard of the infamy of the Inky
Black Lotus seed. Her face was pale, looking in nervousness at Zuo Mo. She had let go of the
messenger seal inside her sleeve. The eagle-nosed male was staring at her all this time, not
disguising the viciousness in his eyes. If she tried to rebel one bit, these people would most likely
attack.
A criminal that had come out of nowhere! They dared to be so brash in Dong Fu!
Li Ying Feng gently bit her lips, full of worry as she looked at Zuo Mo Shidi. The Inky Black
Lotus seed was far out of Zuo Mo Shidis abilities. Last time, he had struggled to cut the fourthgrade cold magnet. Processing was much harder than cutting. Even more so, it was an extremely
poisonous item. If he was not careful, he would be infected by the poison and die. She noticed
that sweat had soaked Shidis back and her heart reached her throat.
If Master was here
Her heart was extremely panicked. If Master could rush over, with his jindan cultivation, that
would be more than enough to deal with three ningmai xiuzhe!
Zuo Mo had the same idea as Li Ying Feng. However, after delaying for a while, noticing the
unfriendly glare of the snarling man, Zuo Mo knew he could not delay any longer.
Flipping his hand, the Stalagmite fire quickly wrapped around the Inky Black Lotus seed. The
enmity in the three peoples eyes finally faded. They were slightly nervous as they stared at Zuo
Mo, their feet unconsciously moving towards the doorway.
Zuo Mo knew that they were afraid of the poisonous nature of the Inky Black Lotus seed. The
toxicity of a fourth-grade Inky Black Lotus seed was such that even though the three were
ningmai, they could not easily deal with it. Zuo Mo also wanted to throw the Inky Black Lotus
seed as far away as possible but the situation did not permit him to do so.
If he could not process this Inky Black Lotus seed today, he might

The milky white flame surrounded the Inky Black Lotus seed, like there was a black core inside
the white fire. It looked slightly strange.
Zuo Mo steeled his heart, throwing away all his thoughts. He did not have an escape route and
should not think of anything else.
He focused all his consciousness. His other hand took out five pieces of third-grade jingshi,
creating a formation under his body.
The snarling man looked at the red-robed male. The red-robed male waved his hand. He
recognized this formation. It was to replenish ling power for xiuzhe. Seeing Zuo Mo act as
though he was facing a great enemy, and his movements were practice and smooth, an expectant
expression uncontrollably came over his face.
Quickly putting down a five primary ling replenishing formation, Zuo Mo put down his left hand
on his knees, his entire body relaxed, his eyes never wavering from the Stalagmite fire.
The milky-white flame, spreading a pressuring cold, surrounded a pure black lotus seed as it
bounced quickly.
The sweat on his back dried up. After entering the mood, Zuo Mo was not nervous anymore.
There was only one thought in his head. How to process this Inky Black Lotus seed?
He quickly made a decision because he did not have too many choices.
The only method he could think about right now.
There was only the Four-Turn fire formation that he had just barely touched!
Translator Ramblings: The name of the seed is way more poetic in Chinese, oh well.
Zuo Mo has very bad luck this chapter. Its better to do as someone more powerful tells you if
you are sure you cant win. Zuo Mo and Li Ying Feng are outnumbered by the three ningmai,
and Li Ying Feng isnt good at comba.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Ten


Four-Turn Fire Formation!
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Happy New Years! (a bit early for some people)

Chapter One Hundred and Ten Four-Turn Fire Formation!


Three-Turn fire formation, that was the formation Zuo Mo had used last time to cut the Cold
Magnet.
He hated gossip very much right now. It had clearly just been cutting the Cold Magnet, but it had
spread to becoming processing the Cold Magnet and caused a calamity for him. Zuo Mo
grimaced inside. Without breaking into the stage of ningmai, to process rare materials like Cold
Magnet and Inky Black Lotus seeds was like a delusion.
Even with the Three-Turn fire formation, he would not be able to process the fourth-grade Inky
Black Lotus seed. He closed his eyes, carefully inspecting any change in the Inky Black Lotus
seed inside the Stalagmite fire. He quickly was disappointed. Shrouded by the Stalagmite fire,
there was nothing happening on the outer coat of the Inky Black Lotus seed.
Taking a deep breath, Zuo Mos fingers started to flick, smoothly flowing and creating countless
afterimages.
For the first time, the red-robed male had a shocked expression. The public saw the spectacle, the
experts the technique. This string of finger movements was not some complicated finger motions
but it was extremely quick, reaching the stage of Fingers Evolving Into Shadows. The Fingers
Evolving Into Shadows referred to the fact that fast fingers would create dense afterimages,
which would be so dense that they would stop for a while in the air, but since the finger
movements would not have stopped, before the old afterimages would disappear, new
afterimages would form, creating a series of connected afterimages. This was Fingers Evolving
Into Shadows.
Before reaching the stage of jindan, finger motions were an extremely useful technique.
Everyone would know it but the skill would vary. Unless people cultivated the body, there
wouldnt be much of a difference in the strength, flexibility and power of the fingers. In other
words, ningmai xiuzhe would have an advantage in terms of ling power but not in finger motions.
Unless there were specialized techniques for finger motions, the only way to increase skill was to
keep practicing.
The cultivation of this zombie-like youth was extremely average but his finger movements were
amazing.
Not just the red-robed male. The other two were also shocked. They exchanged a look, seeing the
joy in each others eyes. Just this string of finger movements was enough for their confidence in
Zuo Mo to increase.

Zuo Mos mind was blank, his concentration completely gathered. In his eyes, there was only
that milky-white Stalagmite fire, and the Inky Black Lotus seed inside the fire.
His fingers became faster. Hiss, it was like an invisible hand had pushed the spitting Stalagmite
fire, a string of white fire flying out of the Stalagmite fire. The Stalagmite fire was like a ball of
thread and this fire thread was the beginning of the thread. White thread was continuously pull
out of the fire.
The white fire thread continued to grow longer, the other end always connected to the Stalagmite
fire. The fire thread started to dance around the Inky Black Lotus seed.
The ball of Stalagmite fire quickly became smaller. When the last bit of flame turned to become
part of the fire thread, the Inky Black Lotus seed was exposed to the air. The white thread of fire
was like a nimble white snake, swimming around the Inky Black Lotus seed floating in the air.
Zuo Mos finger movements suddenly changed. It had been lightning fast before. Now it was as
though weights had been ties to his fingers, extremely slow and heavy.
The white fire thread broke in the middle, creating two threads. The two threads of fire were like
two little white snakes, swimming around the Inky Black Lotus seed. The speed at which the two
fire threads moved was twice as fast as before. Strangely, the two fire threads created two
intersecting circles but would never touch each other.
One-Turn fire-formation!
The Inky Black Lotus seed inside the fire formation was like a rock, with no signs of movement.
There was no change in Zuo Mos eyes. His ten fingers continued to change.
Two divided into four! Four threads of fire that were smaller than before formed for even smaller
criss-crossing fire rings.
Two-Turn fire formation!
The Inky Black Lotus seed was slightly vibrating.
Zuo Mo nervously stared at the Inky Black Lotus seed in the middle of the fire formation, not
daring to slip up the tiniest bit. He was not surprised at the situation in front of him.
The change in his finger movements became even slower. Opposite that, the speed that the ling
power circuited through his body sped up.

Eight threads of fire circled around the Inky Black Lotus seed at astonishing speed, creating a
white cage of fire.
Three-Turn fire formation.
Compared to the previous time that he cut the Cold Magnet, Zuo Mos control of the Three-Turn
fire formation was much better than before. After listening to Pu Yaos advice, Zuo Mo had
started to consciously practice his control of ling power. Since he had many opportunities to
practice everyday, he had progressed quickly. The Three-Turn fire formation that he had
struggled with so much previously was now controlled with ease.
Inside the fire formation, the Inky Black Lotus seed was trembling fiercely as though it would
jump out of the fire formation at any second!
All the people were holding their breath as they stared with serious expressions at the white cage
of fire suspended in the air. They all knew what was happening next was the most important step.
The coldness of the fire formation had reached an astonishing depth. Eight times the usual
temperature of the Stalagmite fire! Cold fire was cold, hot fires were hot, but as long as they
were fire, they all had one attribute melt! The melting ability of cold fires would increase the
colder it became, the melting ability of the hot fires would become stronger the higher the
temperature.
The Three-Turn fire formation cause the coldness of the Stalagmite fire to be eight times its
usual, and its melting ability had also increased by eight times!
Under the eight-times melting ability, the previously unaffected Inky Black Lotus seed finally
had a slight change. Small pits started to form on its coat. This was a sign that it was finally
melting but if it was only at this intensity, to process this Inky Black Lotus seed, it would take
years.
Using the yao seed, Zuo Mos consciousness was extremely cooperative. No one noticed that his
body was soft and relaxed as it never had been before. The more relaxed the body, the better the
effect of the mo matrix, and the faster the rate that ling power would be absorbed.
The effect of Zuo Mo controlling his ling power in the recent period of time was extremely
evident. Forming the Three-Turn fire formation only took half of his ling power. Feeling the ling
power coming from the ling replenishing formation, Zuo Mo released a small breath. He had
never worked at the same time that he was using a ling replenishing formation. Based on what he
saw, the situation was good.
There was a certain level of impurities in the ling power of the jingshi. This was not a problem
for Zuo Mo. The mo matrix could automatically filter out the impurities from the ling power. The

ling power passed on from the ling replenishing formation was a steady flow. The ling power
inside Zuo Mos body quickly increased.
He closed his eyes, maintaining the Three-Turn fire formation, motionless as he waited for his
ling power to be replenished to capacity. In the few times he had attempted the Four-Turn fire
formation, the use of ling power was astonishing.
The red-robed male and his compatriots couldnt help but be nervous at this time as well. They
could naturally see that Zuo Mo was biding his time and gather his energy. It was like the calm
before the storm. The calmer it got, the more suffocating it became.
The instant that the ling power in his body reached its maximum, Zuo Mo opened his eyes.
It was like there was a thousand catty weight on his fingers as they slowly moved! His weak
shoulders shuddered in effort but the slowly moving fingers were strangely steady.
Everyone felt the white light brighten!
The cage of fire became even more dense like a white cocoon of fire! Sixteen threads of fire,
with speeds almost undetectable by the naked eye, circled quickly around the Inky Black Lotus
seed.
Four-Turn fire formation!
The ling power in Zuo Mos body furiously was used up. Just forming the Four-Turn fire
formation, the full ling power had almost became empty. He couldnt attend to anything else but
furiously start to suck in the ling power from the ling replenishing formation. Large amounts of
ling power started to stream towards Zuo Mo. He was like a thirsty traveller in the desert,
greedily sucking every drop of ling power.
Under the power of melting multiplied by sixteen, the hard coat of the Inky Black Lotus seed
finally started to melt!
All of Zuo Mos consciousness started to furiously move. Sixteen times the melting power. That
required that he needed to be extremely precise with his ling power. Any slack in precision, once
it was multiplied by sixteen, could cause the fire formation to collapse!
The three males and Li Ying Feng was so nervous they did not dare to breathe. Inside the store,
there was a suffocating silence. These was no sound from the Four-Turn formation but the white
fire cocoon would occasionally tremble lightly. Each tremble would cause the four peoples
hearts to tremble. They knew that the tremble was Zuo Mo having problems controlling the
Four-Turn fire formation and could not make it do as he wished easily.

No one could spare the attention to this point at the moment.


On their faces, other than nervousness, there was only shock! Deep shock!
A xiuzhe in the stage of zhuji was actually able to start a Four-Turn fire formation. If it spread
out, it would shake all of Dong Fu, no, all of Sky Moon Jie! It was basically hard for a zhuji to
complete a Three-Turn fire formation. A Four-Turn fire formation, that was basically impossible
to complete.
But this extremely average-looking youth could actually form a Four-Turn fire formation.
Looking at the dense white cocoon of fire, it was undoubtedly a Four-Turn fire formation!
They had come when they had heard the news of the Cold Magnet with an attitude to try.
Truthfully, when they had saw Zuo Mo was only in zhuji, they had been very disappointed and
still had a last hope to try, since ruining a fourth-grade Inky Black Lotus seed was not an easy
thing to do! When Zuo Mo had taken this job in the end, they had wondered what method Zuo
Mo would use, but no matter what, they had never thought that Zuo Mo would choose the FourTurn fire formation!
Four-Turn was not a secret formation. It was extremely common. Many people understood it.
Even if they understood, there were very few that could use it. The higher the level, the more the
required control over ling power and cultivation would multiply.
This kind of increase could only be broken by increases in cultivation stages! To use the ThreeTurn fire formation as an example, if some zhuji xiuzhe occasionally managed to complete it,
then they definitely could not complete a Four-Turn fire formation. That was because the
requirement it had for control of ling power and cultivation was double what a Three-Turn fire
formation demanded. Only after breaking through to the stage of ningmai would a person fulfill
the requirements.
Yet, something that they assumed could not happen was happening right in front of them.
The white fire cocoon occasionally trembled and became unsteady but it definitely was a FourTurn fire formation!
The threes eyes as they looked at Zuo Mo was like looking at a monster.
Zuo Mo did not know it. Right now, he did not have a bit of attention to spare for anything. His
world was only this formation!
The little pits on the surface of the Inky Black Lotus seed started to grow larger and deeper,
revealing the lotus seed underneath.

At this time, Zuo Mo did not dare to slack off even more. This was a glowing and adorable lotus
seed, such a beautiful and tempting thing, but it contained terrifying poison. Just touching the
tiniest bit, he would die.
Suppressing the terror inside, he tried to steady his ling power. He didnt dare to think of the
consequences of the smallest mistake right now.
Seeing the glowing and tender lotus seed, the three people back up even more, their expressions
filled with wariness and terror.
The dangers of the Inky Black Lotus seed was infamous!
Translator Ramblings: I found the four-turn a bit misleading the first time around. But we get a
really good description of it in this chapter. The Inky Black Lotus Seed is super-duper deadly.
Zuo Mos increased spiritual power as a result of Pu Yaos scripture is finally doing something
amazing. This was like a reaction chapter.

Eleven For Tasty Food

Chapter One Hundred and Eleven For Tasty Food
The ling replenishing formation made from five pieces of third-grade jingshi continuously
supplied ling power but the ling energy in Zuo Mos body dropped quickly. The rate of
replenishment clearly could not keep up with the speed of use. There was more than one way to
form a ling replenishing formation, but the five element ling replenishing formation was the best
he could make.
The ling power entered furiously, and the channels felt a tearing pain. The ling power that had
just entered the channels would be emptied out at double the rate. What followed was a strong
feeling of weakness. Tearing and weakness interchanging, even though the mo matrix had been
strengthening his channel, Zuo Mo was almost driven crazy.
He knew he could not go crazy, he could not even move a bit. Any tiny movement could cause
the fragile Four-Turn fire formation to collapse.
At that time, the glowing and tender lotus seed would lose all its restrains. A colorless and
invisible poison would not let go of any person in the room. As the person closest, he naturally
would not be immune.

Gritting his teeth, a flow of blood dripped from the corner of his mouth silently.
Zuo Mo did not detect it. His eyes were widened round as he fixed on the fire cocoon, and the
glowing lotus that was revealing its true appearance inside!
A light cocoon made up from the criss-cross of sixteen threads of fire. They released an
extremely cold energy, suppressing the toxins of the lotus seed, not letting them escape. As the
coat on the lotus seed decreased, the three males on the side became even more nervous and their
breathing sped up.
Poof!
The five pieces of jingshi that made up the five elements ling replenishing formation
simultaneously turned to five blooms of dust! Everyones expression changed. Had it failed?
Amid the stone dust, Zuo Mo gave a shout with all his strength, Argh!
The moment the fire cocon disappeared, the glowing and tender lotus seed accurately landed into
the jade bottle that had appeared at some unknown time in his left hand, his right hand lightning
fast as he plugged the top.
The mist of dust faded, revealing the sorry figure of Zuo Mo. His hair, face, and body were
covered by stone dust. The stream of blood from his mouth, mixed with the stone dust, looked
extremely frightening.
Success.
Zuo Mos right hand put the jade bottle on the ground in front of him. His voice was raspy and
thin, revealing just how weak he was!
The red-robed male reached out with a hand and the jade bottle flew to him. After inspecting
inside, glee made its way onto his face. He quickly adjusted his expression, first bowing to Zuo
Mo, Master Zuo is really skilled! Finishing, he put the jade scroll in front of Zuo Mo. He
thought for a second, and then tilted his head to look at the eagle-nosed male, Do you have the
[Gold Forging Chapter Remnant] from last time?
The eagle-nosed male nodded, Yes. Finishing, he took out a jade scroll from the hundred
treasures pouch at his waist, passing it to the red-robed male.
The red-robed male also put the [Gold Forging Chapter Remnant] in front of Zuo Mo, voice
sincere as he said, The discourtesy before, I ask Master Zuo to be generous and forgive us. Us

brothers had accidentally came into possession of this jade scroll and it will be our apology! In
the future, if we have to trouble Master Zuo, please help us!
This person was skilled!
Zuo Mo thought. The other had made a beautiful move. Even though he had anger inside, but
just hearing the name of the jade scroll, Zuo Mo knew he could not resist it. He could only
grimace, As long as its not so dangerous as today.
Ha ha! Master Zuo is joking. This time, it really was us that was brash! But if we were not so,
we would not have seen Master Zuos astonishing skills! The red-robed male laughed
forthrightly. Finishing, he raised his hands in a bow to bid farewell, Have a good rest, Master
Zuo! We wont disturb you any longer!
After the three left, Zuo Mo finally took a breath at the departure of the calamity. The left hand
that was hidden in the sleeve released the seal soldier.
This time, he really had enormous damage!
However, looking at the two jade scrolls in front of him, he felt that it was not for nothing. Li
Ying Feng, who was frightened to death, hurriedly took out a pile of lingdan, urging Zuo Mo to
go back to Wu Kong Mountain. This business was too dangerous.
The second day, when Li Ying Feng saw Zuo Mo, who had been on his last breath yesterday, was
jumping around like usual, she was dumbstruck.
Shidi looked so weak. Was he just weak on the outside, strong on the inside?
The internal injuries were much better than Zuo Mo had thought. The mo matrix on his body
greatly aided his recovery. He had assumed that he needed to rest for half a month, and had not
expected that he would be more than half healed by the second day. Of course, he was still a few
days away from complete recovery.
Before recovering to his best, he decided to return to the mountain. The tempers of those
ningmai xiuzhe were not very good. If another ningmai came to the door, it would be terrible.

Riding Silly Bird, Zuo Mo quickly returned to his little yard.


Back at Wu Kong Mountain, his heart finally landed. Wu Kong Mountain might be small, but no
one dared to come to the mountain to make trouble when the sect leader and others were present.

He still had a deep memory of the night that Wei Sheng Shixiong had entered zhuji and the one
sword stroke of Xin Yan Shibo that had shocked countless people. A sect that had four jindan at
the same time, there were not many of those in Dong Fu.
It was a pity that Wei Sheng Shixiong was not in the sect. He felt it was a pity.
Finally rid of his enormous debt, and having obtained a large number of jade scrolls, for him, this
was a really leisurely time. As he recovered from his injuries, he studied the jade scrolls in his
possession.
He had a variety of jade scrolls for all topics, but not many of them were high quality.
Actually, he did not lack for jade scrolls at the moment. All the jade scrolls in the sect were open
for inner sect disciples. Zuo Mo could go see Masters records room at any time. Just those jade
scrolls, they would take up large amounts of Zuo Mos time. However, the only thing the sect
lacked was the formation jade scrolls that Zuo Mo needed, so he had to use this method to collect
formation jade scrolls. He had gathered many jade scrolls on formations, but they were very
disconnected, and not systematic.
Zuo Mo was not a very picky person. Having so many jade scrolls to learn from, he was already
very satisfied.
In the high quality jade scrolls, there was a sword scripture called [Blue Flower]. It was
extremely fine, but too yin and soft, suited for females. It was useless in his hands, so Zuo Mo
decided to give this sword scripture to Xiao Guo. Li Ying Feng Shijie was not practicing sword
scriptures now, busy everyday with managing business.
But when Zuo Mo ran to the Eastern Peak, he found out that Xiao Guo had successfully entered
zhuji, becoming an inner sect disciple, and also entered Shi Feng Rongs branch.
He hadnt thought the little girl would become his shimei.
When Zuo Mo found a mountain valley, seeing the apple shaped wooden sign with Xiao Guos
Home written on it, he instantly smiled.
There were no jinzhi on Xiao Guos mountain valley. Zuo Mo easily walked in.
When Xiao Guo, who had been practicing her sword, saw Zuo Mo, she first paused and then had
a happy expression. Following that, she timidly said, Shixiong.

Hm, pretty good. Zuo Mo praised. In reality, from what he saw, Xiao Guos sword scripture
was full of holes, just a pretty appearance. He gave the [Blue Flower] sword scriptures to Xiao
Guo, Here, this is for you. You can study it.
He asked a few more things and instantly understood. Master was still in seclusion, making dan,
and had no time to teach her.
Seeing the sweat on the apple face, Zuo Mo felt he needed to fulfilled the duty of a shixiong and
started to point things out. He had practiced sword scriptures for a long time. Even though he
was not as skilled as Wei Sheng Shixiong but he had comprehended two types of sword essences,
and his eyes were much better than people like Qin Cheng.
Your basics are lacking too much. When Zuo Mo said this, tears instantly flooded Xiao Guos
eyes, but she managed to not cry.
Oh, in the future, you can come to my valley to practice the sword. If I have time, I can look.
Zuo Mos next words made Xiao Guo smile.
In the Little West Wind Yard, Zuo Mo was sunbathing, eyes closed as he leisurely sat on the
chair, swaying as he pondered the jade scroll he memorized in his mind. Not far away from him,
Xiao Guo silently practiced the sword, her apple face covered in sweat. On the roof, Silly Bird
stood proudly, occasionally using her blue beak to arrange her snowy white feathers.
Zuo Mo, having encountered a problem, had a bad mood, opened his eyes, and saw Silly Birds
smug appearance. His mood instantly worsened. Picking up a stone from the floor, he flickered
his hand to throw at Silly Bird.
Show off!
Silly Bird gave a shriek, hurriedly flapping her wings to dodge the pebble, eyes full of disdain
towards Zuo Mo.
Xiao Guo was startled. When she saw Zuo Mo pointing and swearing at the blue beaked snow
goose, her large eyes became crescents.
Noticing the mirth on Xiao Guos face, Zuo Mo gave a cough. He decided to fix the impression
of Shixiong and paced along side to Xiao Guo.
You cannot be distracted when practicing the sword. You have to concentrate to be able
At the side, Xiao Guo wanted to laugh but did not dare, her expression instantly becoming
strange. Zuo Mo did not notice. He shook his head, mimicking Pu Yaos tone as he concluded,

What is more simple than sword scripture? If oh, if you practice a few thousand times,
youll know it!
Finishing, he waved his hand, Keep practicing. Im going for a walk. He then stepped out of
the West Wind Valley.
After Xiao Guo came everyday to Zuo Mos place to practice the sword, Zuo Mos meals quickly
increased in quality. The meat soup simmered, the ling foods full of ling energy that increased
Zuo Mos appetite. The only thing he felt irritating was that Silly Bird would partake as well
each time. Especially when Silly Bird found it effective to pretend to be pitiful in front of Xiao
Guo. Zuo Mo could not do anything about it.
Tsk tsk, her taste certainly must be tender! Walking out of the mountain valley, Pu Yao came
out. He licked his lips, looking with some yearning at the interior of the valley.
Zuo Mo was used to the expression that Pu Yao had, Hmph, theres lots of people that want to
exterminate yaomo on this mountain. If you arent afraid of death, go ahead!
They cant find me. Pu Yao was confident.
You eat her, I dont have anything to eat, so lets both die. Zuo Mo also licked his lips. Xiao
Guos skills were really good.
Hmph, wont eat her. But you cant keep me starving. Pu Yao snorted, I need souls!
Didnt you say that the yin fiends in the sword cave need time to form? Zuo Mo copied Pu Yao
in shrugging his shoulders.
Pu Yao once again gave a yearning expression, It should be about time today. Lets go hunt a
few, and satisfy my craving!
Finishing, he did not wait for Zuo Mo to speak before throwing down a few jingshi. The light
flashed and Zuo Mo disappeared.
Translator Ramblings: Zuo Mo had a back up plan, but he was successful and there was no need
for that. Those three people, especially the red-robed one, is good at adapting to the situation.
Get on good term with Zuo Mo and he might be willing to help them process more things,
considering how good the payment is. Low level xiuzhe dont have that many choices, offending
three ningmai is a bad choice especially when they offer an olive branch.
Zuo Mo is being affected by Pu Yao his closest teacher. Pu Yao still wants to eat Xiao Guo,
and after a lot of chapters, Zuo Mo finally agrees to get souls for Pu Yao.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and


Twelve Yin Fiends
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter One Hundred and Twelve Yin Fiends
It was not the first time that Zuo Mo came to the sword cave, but every time that he came, he
would sigh with awe. Who would have thought that inside a mountain cave, there would be such
a wondrous world, a fantastical place completely different than the outside.
As Pu Yao entered the sword cave, he completely disregarded Zuo Mo, going off by himself to
furiously absorb yin energy. Looking at Pu Yaos intoxicated state, Zuo Mo felt that yao and
people were really different.
It wasnt easy to make a trip to the sword cave. Zuo Mo decided to make some more yin beads.
One was that this thing was worth jingshi, the second was that it was needed to make yin fire
beads. Even though he had not tested the power of the yin fire beads, but Zuo Mo was confident
in its power. Something that was so difficult to make, it wouldnt make sense if it didnt have any
power!
He found a place that had relatively denser yin energy and was not disturbed by Pu Yao before
starting to form yin beads.
Ever since Pu Yao said that all spells were formations, Zuo Mo started to deliberately think in
that direction. However, reality was always more complex than theory. Even the simplest spell
would have many changes. If the true nature of a spell was really formations, then the difficulty
of finding the formation within such numerous and complex changes would be unthinkable.
He quickly sunk into the world of exploration. His hands moved erratically, sometimes slow,
then fast, without any rhyme or reason. There still was not any expression on his face, his eyes
dazed and absent as though his mind was wandering.
The yin energy gathered around his hands would suddenly gather and then spread out, or
occasionally collapse. He seemed to not have detected it, his ten fingers continuously changing
like he was bespelled.

Pu Yao opened his eyes, and noticed Zuo Mos state. The yin energy that was frantically flooding
towards his body suddenly paused. He closed his eyes again, the yin energy in the surroundings
moving at even faster speeds towards him.
The movements on Zuo Mos hands slowly started to become ordered. The speed that the yin
energy moved towards his hands started to increase and a yin bead started to form. When the yin
bead on his hand was fully created, Zuo Mos soul came back into his body. He put the yin bead
he had just made in front of his eyes, and couldnt help but be disappointed. The yin bead he had
made did not seem different than the yin beads he had made before. The only difference was that
he was the tiniest bit faster this time.
It was extremely minuscule. If Zuo Mo hadnt paid close attention, he wouldnt have felt
anything. Even though it was an insignificant progress, but it was great motivation for Zuo Mo.
He was slightly disappointed but he knew that for him, studying formations was very difficult for
him. At least, this meant that he was working in the right direction. As long as his direction was
not wrong, if he slowly walked down this road, he would definitely improve,
He had just did an extremely daring but tiny adjustment. It was this adjustment that he didnt
even understand himself that had just slightly shortened the time it took for the yin bead to form.
Maybe when my skill at formations is higher, it wouldnt be so difficult, Zuo Mo comforted
himself.
After this, he didnt spend time on experimenting but focused on forming yin beads. In one go,
he made thirty yin beads before he stopped.
Full of yin energy, Pu Yaos complexion seemed to be glowing, and he looked extremely
satisfied. He floated next to Zuo Mo, Go hunt a few yin fiends!
He looked like an extremely greedy child wanting to eat meat.
You can go hunt yourself. Zuo Mo asked, slightly puzzled. Pu Yao was much stronger than he
was. There was not any reason that he was asking for help.
Pu Yao twisted his mouth and said slightly helplessly, If I do it, the taste of the yin fiends wont
be good.
Really? Zuo Mo didnt quite believe it.
Pu Yao shrugged his shoulders, not explaining.

Zuo Mo pondered it. It was better not to offend this renyao too much. He was extremely clear
how much Pu Yao yearned for souls. Hunting yin fiends was much better than him going out and
killing people for their souls.
Alright, but you know my strength. Zuo Mo reminded Pu Yao.
Pu Yao was very excited, Its enough. This crappy place, how strong of a yin fiend can it
produce? Tsk tsk, if we managed to get here before your shixiong came, there might be some
good ones.
Why? Zuo Mo asked in puzzlement.
Maybe it was that Zuo Mo was going to work, but Pu Yao did not show impatience this time, and
explained in great detail, Yin fiends mostly originate from places with dense yin energy. They
are born of yin energy, and gradually attain a basic intelligence. After continuously absorbing the
yin energy in the surroundings, their intelligence would continuously increase. When they
become intelligent, they would naturally have the ability to cultivate, and would continuously
purify and cultivate their body. Oh, some strong yin fiends, in the end, they can cultivate to
become yao. Since they were yin fiends that cultivated into yao, since they have natural bodies of
pure yin, they are very difficult to deal with.
Zuo Mo was slightly surprised. Difficult to deal with, it was very hard to hear something like that
from Pu Yaos mouth.
Pu Yao continued, However, yin fiends, since they are born of yin energy, they need a certain
amount of time. Your shixiong just cleaned out this sword cave. He really is a monster. He didnt
leave even one behind! If it wasnt that this sword cave has blood fiends and malicious energies,
in addition to yin energy, yin fiends wouldnt form this easily. Then he said regretfully, But the
time is too short. There wouldnt be anything good. Oh, life is so difficult!
Zuo Mo felt strange at Pu Yaos regret. He decided to remind Pu Yao, Pu, you arent a person,
you do not have life.[i]
One person and one yao started to travel into the depths of the sword cave.
The deeper they went, the denser the yin energy, and the more pleasure there was in Pu Yaos
expression. But landing in Zuo Mos eyes, it seemed very strange. As expected, yao and people
were not the same. The deeper they went, the more Zuo Mos heart shook. The surrounding
scenery became even darker and terrifying. Since Zuo Mos consciousness was now stronger, he
felt it even more clearly. The coldness that made a persons hair raise up was like countless little
worms, burrowing into Zuo Mos body.

The blood fiends that flowed beside his feet were even more vibrant and sticky than the outside.
Countless malicious thoughts were spread from it. Zuo Mos consciousness had to avoid these
malicious thoughts. Thinking that he had almost used his fingers to touch these blood-like liquid,
Zuo Mo couldnt help but feel fear. Now that he could feel the power of the blood fiends, he
found it was definitely something he could not touch presently.
Wheres the yin fiend? Zuo Mos voice was slightly trembling.
Pu Yao stopped and looked around. He suddenly pointed in one direction, and said excitedly,
There, one up ahead. Finishing, he floated ahead. Pu Yaos entire body was eternally floating
in the air like a ghost.
Zuo Mo could only follow behind.
A ball of black mist was restlessly turning in the corner.
This is the yin fiend? Zuo Mo pointed at the black mist, and asked dumbly. He had heard Pu
Yao speak of how terrifying it was, so he hadnt thought it would be a ball of black mist that
would look harmless.
All yin fiends that just have formed are like this. It still hasnt formed intelligence. When it has
intelligence, the yin energy around it would solidify. Pu Yao shrugged, The shapes that yin
fiends take the form of will vary, anything is possible. You wont find it strange if you see more.
It would be best if I didnt have to see any. Zuo Mo uttered. Looking at the constantly
changing black ball of mist, he instantly felt it hard to handle, How do I hunt it?
Very simple. Just wound it. Pu Yaos eyes were bright, and he expectantly added, Serious
wound!
Zuo Mo summoned out the Water Drop sword. The Water Drop sword had become even more
glowing and soft like a water drop after being continuously nurtured in the ling spring. After
motioning for a bit, he decided to attack!
[Flowing Water]!
In front of Zuo Mo, a semi-clear ripple quietly spread out. The Water Drop sword thrust straight
into the yin fiend, its sharp point seemed to have thrusted into water. He could clearly feel the
resistance coming from the tip of the sword.
Hiss!

The yin fiends suddenly started to move restlessly.


Zuo Mo suddenly felt his head hurt, like a needle piercing his mind. The Water Drop sword
instantly became disorganized.
This is the weakest of yin fiends. It only knows one move, consciousness stab. It is as weak as it
gets. Pu Yao mocked from the side, Are you not able to even get this one down?
Just at this time, a second consciousness stab came. Zuo Mos sword instantly became a mess.
His consciousness might have formed but how to use his consciousness was a problem he had
always had a headache about. He had so much spiritual power, but he didnt know how to use it,
it really was a waste, to say nothing of using his consciousness to attack or defend.
It seemed like someone had forcefully pierced his head twice, his head instantly in throbbing
pain.
But the attack of the yin fiend was invisible and intangible. When his consciousness detected it,
the others attack would have arrived. He basically could not dodge it. Anything related to Pu
Yao, it was never anything good, Zuo Mo wailed inside.
The yin fiend was relying on its instincts. It had been provoked by the Water Drop sword. Other
than the consciousness stab, it was like an infuriated beast, leaping at Zuo Mo.
Zuo Mo felt the temperature of the surroundings dramatically increasing, the yin energy almost
tangible as it surrounded him as though it wanted to burrow through his pores inside his body!
Zuo Mo felt countless needle were pricking his body. He couldnt help but howl.
Youre really trashy. This kind of yin fiend, your crappy shixiong only needs one sword blow to
defeat them. Pu Yao mocked heartlessly from the side.
Zuo Mo didnt have the attention to argue with Pu Yao now. The Water Drop sword came back to
his hand. This time, he did not hesitate. Using all his ling power, he prepared to give a blow with
all his power!
However, he was instantly frightened!
He suddenly lost control of the ling power inside his body! The black mist which tightly
enclosed his body was like a sponge, furiously absorbing the ling power inside Zuo Mos body.
Why was it like this?

At this rate, his ling power would quickly be sucked dry by the yin fiend!
Consuming ling . All yao know how to do it. Oh, this little yin fiend doesnt count as a yao yet.
Pu Yaos words really came at a good time, but it was full of disdain towards this yin fiend.
Zuo Mo heard Pu Yaos words and his heart jumped. Consuming ling ! Based on the term, it
would be consuming ling power. For some reason, he suddenly thought of [Vajra Profound
Sutra]. At this time, he had no option but to instantly start channeling [Vajra Profound Sutra].
A golden light suddenly flashed inside the black mist. It was as though a layer of dark gold was
layered on Zuo Mos entire body.
It had an effect!
Zuo Mo clearly felt the loss of ling power inside his body slow down. The dark golden skin was
like a layer of protection, it could stop the loss of his ling power. Holding the Water Drop sword,
Zuo Mo did not hesitate any longer, attacking with all his power!
[Layered Wave]!
The sword rose up, like the start of the tide. As it moved, the waves rose in layers, forming a
raging wave!
Just at this time, the coldness that had gathered for a long time was like a landslide, erupting out,
and crashing!
The pressure around Zuo Mos body instantly lessened. Holding the sword, with him as the
center, there was a circle of light blue icicles.

The pun here is that life is in Chinese which is literally human(person) birth. Pu Yao is a
yao, not a human and so he does not have life.
Translator Ramblings: I think I had named the things devilings the first time around but they
are now yin fiends. Pu Yao has high demands for his food.

Chapter One Hundred And Thirteen Formation Disks


Youve beaten it to this, how can I eat it? Pu Yao said in dissatisfaction.
Zuo Mo panted, not having the energy to pay attention to him. After a while, his breaths evened.
Thinking about the danger that had just passed, he suddenly erupted, You damned renyao! Why
didnt you tell me before that yin fiends could attack?
Pu Yaos face was matter-of-fact, I thought you knew. Such a simple thing, you should know
that.
Silly yao, you arent seeing the situation clearly! Zuo Mo smirked, Such a simple thing, ge
doesnt want to lower myself to do it! You can do it yourself. Finishing, he turned to leave.
Pu Yao was dumbstruck.
Silly yao! Fighting with ge, Ill let you know how to die! Zuo Mo raged inside, his anger
remaining.
This is a misunderstanding. Pu Yao caught up and said solemnly, Actually, I wanted to teach
you how to deal with yin fiends, but you know, this needs you to personally experience it so you
have a better impression.
Zuo Mo didnt pay attention to him.
Pu Yao glanced at him, and kept on speaking, Look, with your power, it doesnt take much
energy to destroy yin fiends that have just formed. But do you have any way of injuring them but
not destroying them?
Zuo Mo didnt even blink an eyelid, Why do I have to injure them but not destroy them?
Pu Yao said sternly, Oh, it is not right to think that way. For example, your master told you to
capture a yao beast, alive. What will you do? You make medicine as well, and you should know
that many yao beast material need alive beasts to be effective.
Zuo Mo still didnt pay attention to him.
However, taking into account your present cultivation, it was pretty good that you managed to
destroy it. But you cannot stay forever in Wu Kong Mountain, and Sky Moon Jie. Oh, you still
have to go find your identity and history
Zuo Mos steps stopped. He rudely interrupted Pu Yao, Pu, what do you really want to say?

Pu shrugged his shoulders, I just want to teach you some methods of dealing with similar
situations.
What methods? Zuo Mo asked.
There are many. Pu Yao rubbed his chin, But with your present power, the best methods is
formations.
Formations? Zuo Mo first paused and then some interest rose, Formations, how to use
formations? The enemy will let me set up a formation?
Smugness rose in Pu Yaos bloody pupil and then disappeared, Your understanding of
formations is still too shallow. I have seen strong xiuzhe. Their minds would just move and they
could make a big formation. They have endless tricks. I once encountered a sword xiu. He had
twelve flying swords, and he could set up a powerful formation in the blink of an eye, extremely
strong.
Zuo Mo was slightly disappointed, Youre just wasting your words. Recently, he had been
studying formations, but he had just started. He needed a lot of time to set up a slightly complex
formation, much less using his mind to set up a large formation.
It seems your basic knowledge is too weak. Pu Yao was not gentle in mocking Zuo Mo. He
continued, There is something called formation disks in this world.
Formation disks? Zuo Mo paused and then became joyous, You know how to make formation
disks? Many of the formation jade scrolls he had gathered would mention the thing called
formation disks but not one of the jade scrolls mentioned how to make formation disks. He had
planned on searching in Dong Fu to see if he could buy a jade scroll about formation disks.
However, after the incident with the Inky Black Lotus seed occurred, he didnt have time to go
search before he sneaked back to the mountain.
I dont have any interest in trash like formation disks. Pu Yaos words were like a bucket of
cold water poured over his head. Zuo Mos heart that had just heated slightly instantly cooled
down.
He looked in extreme dissatisfaction at Pu Yao.
Pu Yao shrugged, Even though I dont understand, but I know where to find the instructions.
Where? Zuo Mo couldnt help but ask.
Oh, I feel we need to make an agreement. Pu Yao said slowly.

Zuo Mo first stilled and then understood what Pu Yao meant. He asked, What agreement?
Ill tell you where it is. You need to give me fifty yin fiends, alive. Pu Yaos bright red tongue
licked his lips, extremely alluring.
Ok. Zuo Mo agreed without any hesitations.
Hee hee, your sects records room has it. Pu Yao smirked at Zuo Mo.
Zuo Mo was speechless.
The records room of Wu Kong Sword Sect was open to all inner sect disciples and did not
require any contribution points. When the sect leader had announced this, Zuo Mo had been
suspicious that he had heard it wrong. He felt none of the elders were charitable people, so why
would they announce such a strange rule?
However, Zuo Mo definitely approved of it. The only shortcoming was that the sect primarily
focused on sword scriptures and had pitiful amounts of other jade scrolls. There were very few
that were good ones. This was also why Zuo Mo hadnt thought of the sects records room in the
first place.
Zuo Mo suddenly stopped in his steps. He saw a familiar figure.
Luo Li Shixiong!
Wasnt he in seclusion? Zuo Mo was slightly surprised. He looked a few more times. Luo Li
Shixiong seemed engrossed in his reading, and hadnt noticed his arrival at all.
Zuo Mo didnt have any good feelings for Luo Li Shixiong. The conflict between the two of
them basically could not be resolved. Zuo Mo didnt want to have a conflict happen the in the
records room so he lightened his steps and started searching in the records room.
He quickly found the jade scroll on formation disks and was overjoyed. Pu Yao hadnt lied to
him.
Holding the jade scroll, Zuo Mo quickly sunk into the world of the jade scroll, completely
forgetting the passage of time.
Formation disks was putting already prepared formations inside a jade disk so that when it was
needed, it could quickly be released. It was an extremely practical technique. The majority of
formations could be made into formation disks for easy use. However, the power of formation

disks was slightly weaker than the formations that were set up using talismans, so it was
preferred by low level xiuzhe below jindan.
In all the xiuzhe, the ones skilled in using formation disks were roaming xiu. Zuo Mo found that
he seemed to be extremely similar to roaming xiu. The spells that he had primarily focused on in
the area of ling farming were also one of the areas roaming xiu were skilled in.
The difficulty of creating formation disks was directly related to the difficulty of the formation. It
had to be said that Zuo Mos days which he spend in Dong Fu processing all kinds of materials
had given him large amounts of experience. Under his attentive studying, he gradually learned
how to make formation disks.
Before this, he studied formations because he wanted to increase his skill at forging and danmaking. He had never thought about using formations against enemies. Only when he started
learning how to make formation disks did he find that formations could be used against enemies.
When he left the records room, the sky was already dark. Luo Li Shixiong had disappeared. Zuo
Mo guessed that he had left.
Returning to the Little West Wind Yard, Xiao Guo had already left. Only Silly Bird was standing
on the rooftop, untiringly preening her own feathers again and again.
Finding a jade board in the room, Zuo Mo gathered his mind to think and started to create his
first formation disk.
He cut out a piece of jade that was palm-sized and the thickness of a finger. There was no need to
wonder about the shape of the formation disk. Zuo Mo used the Water Drop sword to cut it into a
rough circular shape. The important part was to seal the formation into the jade disk. What
formation should he seal?
Since it was his first try, Zuo Mo decided to pick a formation of little difficulty Three Talent
Water formation.
The only purpose of this formation was to greatly increase the water content inside a certain area
to increase the power of water element spells. There were many things that had to be taken care
of when setting up a formation, and the most important one of them was the formation talisman.
The formation talisman was just a talisman that could act as the intermediary for the formation.
Some xiuzhe would create some little flags and use them to make the formation. Others would
make a beaded bracelet for the formation. The xiuzhe were different, and the formation talismans
that could be used were endless and varied. However, if they were formation talismans, they
would have some similarities, such as number.

The more powerful the formation, the more complex it usually was, and the more formation
talismans was needed to create the formation.
However, to Zuo Mo, formation talismans was something he could only dream about. He didnt
have the power presently to create a good formation talisman. Thankfully, the Three Talent Water
formation did not need any good materials. Zuo Mo just randomly found three pieces of firstgrade Greenwood, cut it up to half a cun wide, and three cun long pieces, before starting to carve
the formation on them.
Due to the formation itself being simple, three crude formation talismans were quickly
completed.
Zuo Mo started to set up the Three Talent Water formation. The three pieces of Greenwood were
placed in the positions of sky, earth, and person. Two jingshi were placed according to the
positions of sun and moon. After setting it up, Zuo Mo started a spell.
A layer of misty water quickly covered the Little West Wind Yard. Silly Bird shrieked in shock
from the roof, and hurriedly flapped her wings to fly into the sky.
At this time, Zuo Mo had taken out the jade disk he had prepared before, and cast a spell to seal
the formation.
All the water and the Three Talent Water formation were completely taken into the jade disk.
There was nothing left on the ground, and on the jade disk, there was a green water shaped sigil.
Zuo Mo found it extremely interesting. He quickly cast a spell for the formation disk. Light
flashed across the surface of the formation disk, and a three talent water formation appeared on
the ground again, continuously producing water. However, the rate of water that it produced in
the air was slightly slower than before.
So interesting!
Zuo Mo, interested, started to make all kinds of formation disks. Even though it was the simplest
materials, but he was extremely interested and toyed around gleefully.
He only stopped when all the ling power in his body was used up. He had about a dozen of all
kinds of formation disks. Extremely exhausted, he collapsed into sleep. Moments later, his snores
were like thunder.

Zuo Mo was called up by Xiao Guo.

Shixiong. Xiao Guo timidly called.


Hm. Zuo Mo barely managed to open his eyes and muttered indistinctly. It had been a time
since he had such a good sleep.
Sect Leader tells you to go to Wu Kong Hall.
Wu Kong Hall dont bother me Just having opened his eyes, Zuo Mos mind was
still fuzzy. After a while, his mind focused and he instantly sat up, nervously asking Xiao Guo,
Where did you just say Sect Leader wanted me to go?
Sect Leader said for you to go to Wu Kong Hall Xiao Guo timidly said.
Without another word, he jumped up, and rushed out of the West Wind Valley like a burst of
wind.
She was joking!
If Sect Leader said for him to go to Wu Kong Hall, then that definitely meant he had something
important to announce!
On the way there, he kept on pondering what important matter did the sect leader have to
announce this time?
Translator Ramblings: Poor Zuo Mo, he really is still far from being a good businessman. Three
guesses what the announcement is about and the first two doesnt count!

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and


Fourteen Sword Test Conference?
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter One Hundred and Fourteen Sword Test Conference?
When Zuo Mo hurried to Wu Kong Hall, he was surprised to find Luo Li Shixiong was also
there. He bowed to the sect leader seated at the front before standing to one side. Scanning the
surroundings, he saw the other shibo and Master had not come. There was only the three of them
in Wu Kong Hall.

Luo Li, Zuo Mo, you two need to prepare. One month later, you and your Wei Sheng Shixiong
will represent our sect at Dong Fu Sword Test Conference. You have to cultivate well, and not
slack off. The sect leader concisely announced this news.
The status of Wei Sheng as Eldest Shixiong had become unshakable after he came out of the
sword cave. Supposedly, the sect leader had announced it on the spot.
Luo Li did not say a word, just bowed.
Zuo Mo, who did not have any mental preparations, was dumb on his spot. Sword Test
Conference? He was going to attend the Sword Test Conference?
After a while, he regained his focus and said, panicked, Sect leader, this isnt this a bit
inappropriate?
How is it inappropriate? Pei Yuan Ran hadnt thought that Zuo Mo would say it was
inappropriate.
Seeing the sect leaders gaze land on him, Zuo Mo could only keep going, This disciple might
not be able to take the duty. It is enough for our sect to have Wei Sheng Shixiong and Luo Li
Shixiong, this disciples power is weak
Before he even finished, even Luo Lis eyes as they looked at him were slightly strange.
Pei Yuan Ran chuckled, Ha ha. You dont look anything like your Scalping Zombie nickname.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, and said warmly, The reputation of the sect, when its time to use
it, it should naturally be used well. However, when the sect needs your service, you cannot
retreat.
Zuo Mos heart dropped.
It was over! The sect leader definitely knew that he had gone to Ling Ying Sect!
The sect leaders warm gaze right now was like a knife. Zuo Mo felt extremely uncomfortable,
the words that had reached his mouth shrinking back. He hurriedly said, Yes yes yes! This
disciple was muddle-minded! To earn honor for the sect, it is the duty of our generation. This
disciple will extinguish volcanoes and upset seas if necessary.
The sect leader laughed, We dont need you to go through anything. Just try at the competition.
It will be good for you personally.

Zuo Mo instantly was embarrassed. It was lucky that there was no expression on his face and
nothing could be seen. The reason that he didnt want to attend the Sword Test Conference was
that he didnt want to divide his attention. He suddenly asked curiously, Sect Leader, hasnt the
Sword Test Conference been going on for a while? Disciple had thought it was going to finish
soon.
Ha ha, the local sects would always have a few slots. You can directly attend the Sword Test
Conference, and do not have to start from the preliminary Sword Test Conference. Alright, if you
have any more questions, you can ask your Li Ying Feng shijie. I have put her in charge of the
logistics for this conference. Pei Yuan Ran waved his hands, signaling for the two to leave.
From beginning to end, Luo Li did not say a word, standing there like a block of wood. Zuo Mo
didnt exchange pleasantries with him and they left on their own paths.
Walking to the West Wind Valley, Zuo Mo still hadnt managed to react yet. He had never
thought about attending the Sword Test Conference. Even though he was tempted of the prizes,
but he knew how much he was really worth. He had heard things when he had been processing
materials in Dong Fu. Supposedly, this Sword Test Conference was the biggest Sky Moon Jie
ever held, and had the highest attendance in history.

He might have been bold and victorious at Ling Ying Sect, and gotten a lot of gains, but there
was a lot of luck involved. In the many young disciples of Sky Moon Jie, the first-class ones
were those young people who had already reached the stage of ningmai, like Wei Sheng
Shixiong. Ningmai was like a doorway. If they could not step over it before thirty years old, they
wouldnt make any great achievements.
Zuo Mo was full of confidence in Wei Sheng Shixiong, but placed in the context of the entire
Sky Moon Jie, this confidence would have to discounted. Dong Fu was just one of the thirteen
primary towns of Sky Moon Jie, and there were countless families of various sizes spread out
across the wild.
In Sky Moon Jie, other sects of various sizes, the next numerous group were all kinds of
families. These families had generations of cultivators, and there were not many differences
compared to sects, except that they were even more traditional and conservative. They did not
accept xiuzhe from the outside.
Compared to sects, the resources that the families had were much less, and they were less
scriptures and spells. However, they had their own method of surviving. They might not have

many spells, but after being refined and corrected by generations of disciples, as long as it had
managed to pass down, it would have its unique traits. The disciples that came from sects, they
would have stronger foundations in areas. The disciples that came from families, they would
always have one or two spectacular spells. Each had their specialties.
If a talented disciple came out of a cultivation family, the tilt in the resources would be even
greater than a sect.
So many powerful experts, he, with his zhuji cultivation, what would he do there? Zuo Mo
twisted his mouth.
In reality, even Luo Li Shixiong didnt have a hope in his eyes. If someone had a chance from the
sect, it would only be Wei Sheng Shixiong. When he thought of Wei Sheng Shixiong, Zuo Mo
couldnt help but feel expectant. Shixiong, who had killed his way step by step in the cave, and
broken through to the stage of ningmai, what kind of display would he put up? This was the only
part of the Sword Test Conference that Zuo Mo was interested in.
The yin fiends in the sword cave had all been wiped out by Shixiong. Even, Pu Yao, when speak
of Shixiong, would occasionally show hints of praise.
Okay, since he was just going there to show his face, Zuo Mo decided, of course, he would
display his effort to avoid being punished by the sect leader. Zuo Mo then decided to throw the
problem to one side and keep doing what he was doing.
In the little yard, Xiao Guo was still practicing the sword, sweating heavily, extremely focused.
Zuo Mo did not disturb her, only standing and looking silently from the side. After a short while,
he nodded. Xiao Guo had improved very quickly, and the [Blue Flower] sword scripture had
formed. In reality, Xiao Guos talents in the sword could only count as average. Zuo Mo had only
taught her to fulfill the duty of a shixiong.
But as Xiao Guo continuously improved, especially the effort that almost surpassed Zuo Mos
imagination, his attitude started to gradually change and he taught more seriously.
[Blue Flower] sword scripture, killing intent hidden within the gentleness. The navy sword light
was sometimes thin and dense, layers of circles like the fine brush paintings, sometimes the
sword leapt like the crazed ink writing.
Presently, Xiao Guos [Blue Flower] still lacked killing intent, but on soft, yin, and entangling, it
was exceptional. What Zuo Mo felt astounded by was the tenacity that was barely perceivable
in her sword presence. She was like a timid and silent spider hiding in the white porcelain vase,
spitting out countless thin navy strands, quietly forming a dense and strong blue net, trapping her
opponent.

This [Blue Flower] was really suited for her!


Zuo Mo praised inside and felt happy for her. In the future, Xiao Guo definitely could become a
pretty strong sword xiu.
There was another transformation in [Blue Flower], drawing essence. Zuo Mo felt that he
couldnt demand so much. This thing was related to ones personality. Xiao Guo wasnt that
kind of forthright and lively person. He guess it would be hard for her to comprehend that level
of sword essence. Zuo Mo wasnt a person stuck on transformations. He felt that if Xiao Guo
kept developing like this, she would definitely carve out a road for herself.
Thinking about it, Zuo Mo gathered all the jade scrolls that he felt could give Xiao Guo help.
Most of them were yin and soft sword scriptures.
At this time, Xiao Guo had completed one round of practice. When she raised her head and saw
Zuo Mo watching on from the side, she timidly said, Shixiong
Oh. Zuo Mo responded. He took out a few jade scrolls out of his hundred treasures pouch to
give to Xiao Guo, Take this and have a look. Dont just practice, take a look at other things,
learn some knowledge, it can be inspiration for you.
Seeing mist rise in Xiao Guos eyes, Zuo Mo instantly had a headache. He hurriedly stuffed the
jade scrolls into Xiao Guos hands, and said in a deliberately stern tone, This is homework! I
will inspect it! Dont slack off! Keep practicing!
Finishing, he fled, heading towards his house.
Everything about this little girl was good, except she liked crying too much. Zuo Mo shook his
head. He could do nothing for Xiao Guo there. Oh, she can practice by herself since she had been
pretty good right now. Zuo Mo said extremely irresponsibly.
He quickly threw the question to one side, and started his daily cultivation.
His cultivation was extremely unequal right now. The great majority of his time was on
scriptures. Both [Embryonic Breathing Spiritual Cultivation] and [Vajra Profound Sutra] needed
large amounts of time. In comparison, the time he spent on spells was lamentable. Due to not
having the next section on the five element spells of ling plant farmers, he could only work on
the finger motions to stop them from becoming unfamiliar. [Li Water Sword Scripture] after he
merged the sword essences, he found that he had greatly diverged from the contents of the jade
scrolls. The content in the jade scrolls was not suited to the newly hybrid sword essence. The
problem was while it was hard to merge together the sword essences, it was even harder to split
them apart again.

The only thing Zuo Mo felt happy about was the new sword essence was much more powerful
than before.
The remaining time was on the spells for dan-making and forging. Shi Feng Rong felt that she
didnt have time to teach him dan-making so she let him read all the jade scrolls relating to danmaking. She had even wiped away the jinzhi on the jade scrolls that required an appropriate
cultivation for Zuo Mo to read.
It had to be said that this was very beneficial for Zuo Mo. His control over the Stalagmite fire
was much stronger than before. He could comprehend many of the intricacies. Even though he
could not understand many parts due to his cultivation, but his thinking and knowledge was far
above the past.
In the area of forging, he could only be considered to be dabbling. The only thing he was good at
was processing materials. Other things, he was extremely weak. However, he felt that forging
was a pretty good direction, especially when he had a fire seed. When he had free time, he would
flip through Second Shibos jade scrolls on forging.
From this, it could be seen just how little spells he had!
However, he didnt have any better methods. He definitely couldnt talk about it with Sect
Leader and the shibo, otherwise, he would be lectured. The elders would certainly sternly lecture
him to practice the sword, and not bite off more than he can chew.
One sword breaks all moves was the confidence of sword xiu experts.
It was a pity that Zuo Mo was not an expert and did not have much time recently to put on the
sword. He was a pure pragmatist. His development was completely due to needs and
motivations. After he had nearly tripped up at Ling Ying Sect, he had become highly alert that he
could not do it again.
Earning jingshi, it was better to be safe and steady.
Before, he had spent large amounts of time on formations, but since he had been lacking for
effective methods, he had studied, but didnt have great interest.
But now that he had the formation disks, this had undoubtedly opened a window for Zuo Mo.
On the other side of the window was a completely new world.
Translator Ramblings: You guys are all so smart. This chapter was a bit of review on Zuo Mos
abilities since he is going to have fight in the future. Pei Yuan Ran also makes a good point about

the relationship between the sect and its disciples. The sect comes with a lot of benefits and so
the disciples should pay back when needed.

Chapter One Hundred and Fifteen Exploring the Sword Cave Again
Zuo Mo opened his eyes, the dark gold covering his entire body slowly fading.
If one was to slice peel away Zuo Mos skin, they would see that the flesh under the skin would
appear have countless slivers of gold embedded in it. The third level of [Vajra Profound Sutra],
Golden Clothing of Flesh, became deeper each day. The mo matrix seemed to have the greatest
pairing with [Vajra Profound Sutra]. Even Zuo Mo was shocked at the progression speed of
[Vajra Profound Sutra]. Originally, he had assumed that the gravestone version of [Vajra
Profound Sutra] would be slow and steady. Who knew that with the addition of a mo matrix, it
dramatically transformed.
Based on this speed, he would soon reach the fourth level of Red Lotus Flowing Gold. It was a
pity that other than body cultivation, Zuo Mo didnt know how to use it.
Even though his body was golden clothing of flesh and was not easily injured by normal flying
sword. But the sorry state he was in when he had encountered the yin fiends last time made him
understand that even though his body could not be destroyed, he could do nothing against
spiritual attacks.
Zuo Mo felt he was a complete tragedy. He had a gigantic consciousness but didnt know how to
use it; he had cultivated his body to Golden Clothing of Flesh, but similarly, he didnt know
how to use it; he knew the attributes of countless materials, but could not forge an acceptable
talisman
The only thing he felt fortunate about was that he knew how to make formations disks now. He
could now use the formations he had learned!
Pu Yao, who had become impatient long ago, nagged, Start working! Start working!
He didnt wait for Zuo Mo to speak up. Throwing out the jingshi a blur, of light, and one person,
and one yao disappeared from their spots.

We agreed. Fifty seriously injured yin fiends, Pu Yao emphasized, Alive!


I know, Zuo Mo was extremely conscious that he had to pay what he owed. Even more, he
owed Pu Yao. It wasnt easy to take advantage of Pu Yao.
These past few days, he had made large amounts of all kinds of formation disks and wanted to
try their abilities.
Theres one there, Pu Yao instantly became excited as he floated towards one corner. Zuo Mo
followed in a hurry.
As expected, a yin fiend was silently floating in the corner. Zuo Mo noticed the mist around the
body of this yin fiend was denser than last time.
Whats this? It looks harder to deal with than last time, He asked Pu Yao.
Pu Yao stared fixedly at this yin fiend with his eyes bright. The only thing lacking was him
drooling. Without turning his head he said, What place is this? The yin fiends absorbed yin
energy every day. Its natural that they grow quickly.
Zuo Mo muttered in responded, So that was why.
This yin fiend was stronger than the last one. It quickly found Zuo Mo, gave a dissonant sound,
and then leapt at Zuo Mo.
At the same time a consciousness stab came. However, Zuo Mo was prepared the time. With a
snicker he flipped his hand, and he lightly threw out a formation disk!
The formation disk was like it was thrown into the water. The air vibrated and the formation disk
disappeared.
The air next to Zuo Mos ears shook. The consciousness stab brushed passed him. His heart was
joyful. The formation was already effective!
The yin fiend that had travelled not far away from Zuo Mo suddenly stopped in its place,
seemingly confused. Due to desiring to see the effect of the formation, Zuo Mo wasnt in a hurry
to attack and circled around the yin fiend. The yin fiend inside the formation didnt respond at all,
and was just turning in circles.
As expected joy could barely be disguised in Zuo Mos eyes, I hadnt guessed wrong!

Pu Yao had told him the requirements for yin fiends to form. Adding on the attack of the
consciousness stabs that the yin fiend had used last time, Zuo Mo had deduced that yin fiends
were vulnerable to illusory formations. Yin fiends were born from yin energies. Even though they
knew how to use consciousness stabs, however their intelligence was low and were easily prey to
illusory formations.
The formation he threw out was called [Path Confusion Formation]. It was one of the simplest
illusory formations. Its effect was to make others lose track of their position.
Due to the limited materials, Zuo Mo was not able to create a more complex Path Confusion
Formation. In real battles, a second-grade Path Confusion Formation wouldnt be very effective.
It basically was not effective against any xiuzhe above the stage of zhuji. Even more so, the Path
Confusion Formation released by the formation disk was less powerful.
However, this little and mostly useless Path Confusion Formation successfully trapped a yin
fiend.
In an instant, Zuo Mos heart was filled with the feeling of accomplishment!
After Pu Yao had said that if he could not increase the storage of ling power, then he should
decrease the use of ling power to increase the efficiency of ling power, it had given him great
inspiration. What he understood and was skilled at were all low-level spells. Right now, the
improvement in his cultivation was extremely slow, and those high level spells and formations
all had high demands on ling power. He had been disappointed for a long time, but the mo matrix
and yao seed could not be removed. He could not solve the problem of storing ling power, that
meant he was destined to work with only low-level spells.
Without any other method, he could only rely on these low level spells and formations. He had a
feeling, if he could use them well, low level spells and formations could also release a significant
power
Reality proved that he was correct!
As long as the direction was right, a second-grade formation could trap a yin fiend.
It was great motivation that he had been right. This caused him to completely forget Pu Yao. All
of his attention was on the trapped yin fiend. He wanted to see how long this Path Confusion
Formation that was not even second-grade could trap this yin fiend? This yin fiend, what
counterattack would it have?
Seeing Zuo Mo not moving, Pu Yao was slightly dissatisfied, but he suppressed it. He also
wanted to see what Zuo Mo wanted to do.

The yin fiend inside the formation gradually became irritable. It could be seen from the boiling
yin energy around it. From the time it had been trapped, the yin fiend had released five
consciousness stabs, all of them failing to hit anything, and in all directions. This was evidence
that the yin fiend had completely lost its sense of direction.
Squeak!
The yin fiend suddenly gave an extremely piercing yell, and from the restless yin energy, there
were five grey thin splinters that suddenly shot out!
Bam, a light sound, and the Path Confusion Formation instantly broke. The five grey splinters
were not hampered and continued to travel in their path.
Zuo Mos expression changed slightly. One of the grey splinters was shooting towards him!
Hurriedly casting a spell, the Moonwater Black Turtle armors formation started up. A semi-clear
turtle shell shield appeared in front of him. Pew! The turtle shield shook, the light fading but it
managed to stop it.
Zuo Mo was shocked. This grey splinter was this powerful! He was extremely clear just how
strong the turtle shell defense that the Moonwater Black Turtle armor put out. It had almost been
broken. If that had landed on his body, it definitely would have left a bloody hole!
Gritting his teeth, another formation disk appeared on his hand Dragon Tying formation!
When the formation disk left his hand, it turned to three thin blue chains, and headed for the yin
fiend. The five grey splinters seemed to have been harmful to the yin fiend as well. It was
drooping at its spot, unable to dodge in time. The three blue chains were like three blue snakes,
securely tying it up. Speaking of it, it was strange. This yin fiend was completely made up of yin
energy, but these blue chains could tie it like it was tangible, tying it so that it could not move.
Only now did Zuo Mo release a breath.
This [Dragon Tying Formation] was one of the fine formations in the jade scrolls that he had
earned. To make this Dragon Tying Formation, he had used up a lot of materials. This was one of
the biggest insurances he had this time. He hadnt thought he would use it so early.
Do you need be to help? Zuo Mo calmed down and turned to ask Pu Yao.
No need, Pu Yao licked the corner of his mouth and walked towards the yin fiend that was tied
up. The yin fiend seemed to be extremely terrified of Pu Yao, furiously squeaking.

Pu Yao was not moved. Walking in front of the yin fiend, he reached with his hand into the yin
energy.
There didnt seem to be any movement but the squeaks of the yin fiend gradually became
smaller. The grey yin energy covering the body of the yin fiend was sucked into Pu Yaos palm at
a speed visible to the naked eye. Pu Yao revealed an intoxicated expression, So long since I
tasted something this delicious!
In the blink of an eye, he had sucked the yin fiend dry.
The three blue chains vanished into the air without a support.
Oh, theres still forty nine more! There seemed to be a new glow on Pu Yaos face, the smile at
the corner of his mouth even more enchanting.
Luckily, Zuo Mo had prepared large amounts of formation disks for this trip to the sword cave.
The Dragon Tying Formation was just one of them.
Gradually, Zuo Mo became familiar with the specialties of the yin fiends. The grey splinters was
the last life-saving move of the yin fiends. After they used it, they would shrink and become
weak. The illusory formations were one hundred percent successful against the yin fiends. Zuo
Mo had to sigh that it was wondrous how things in the world would have their weaknesses.
As Zuo Mo became familiar with the yin fiends, his moves became much more skilled.
He spent more time now examining how the yin fiends used the consciousness. Yin fiends were
extremely primitive and crude in their use of consciousness, but to Zuo Mo who didnt know
how to use his consciousness at all, it was an extremely valuable experience. When he
encountered the tenth yin fiend, Zuo Mo could form a consciousness stab after trying a few times
to condense the yin energy into needles. Zuo Mo could skillfully use it after practicing a few
times, but he was not very satisfied with the power.
This move could be used as an ambush, but if the other person was prepared, it basically didnt
have any use. The first time, Zuo Mo had been unprepared and that had caused his sorry state.
Pu Yao expressed his usual disdain and mockery.
Zuo Mo then put his attention on the grey splinters the yin fiends released because he found the
grey splinters were much stronger than the consciousness stab. Every time, he would push the
yin fiend to the limit to get the yin fiend to release the grey splinter for him to inspect. His
consciousness was much stronger and larger than the yin fiend. After repeated inspections, he
finally understood the gist.

The center of the grey splinter was consciousness, and the outer layer was a dense skin of yin
energy. The grey splinter was much more skilled than the consciousness stab. It would use less
spiritual power than the consciousness stab but the consciousness stab couldnt compare to it in
power.
Pu Yaos mood was extremely good. He had ate more than ten yin fiends in a row. There was an
additional glow on his face, even the red pupil and the red crystal on his ears became bright and
luminous.
In opposition to Pu Yao, Zuo Mos mood was terrible.
He spent so much effort to understand what the grey splinter was but he could not use it. Was
there anything that would make someone more depressed?
He felt it was not very hard to control his consciousness, but he wasnt a yin fiend, where would
he get such dense and pure yin energy?
The grey splinters must include yin energy for them to be used. Without the available materials,
without yin energy, Zuo Mo couldnt do it.
Wait!
Zuo Mo, who had been following with his head down beside Pu Yao, suddenly felt a light flash
across his mind. His feet couldnt help but stop.
Floating at the front, Pu Yao was slightly surprised. He also stopped and looked back in slight
puzzlement.
He coincidentally saw Zuo Mos raised eyes, and the glee that could not be disguised!
Translator Ramblings: Zuo Mo makes some progress on his body cultivation. His defenses have
now gotten up. But he is still lacking a lot of techniques and knowledge.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and


Sixteen Yin Splinter
This chapter has been brought to you by me, warlord212, and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter One Hundred and Sixteen Yin Splinter
Zuo Mo thought of the yin beads.

Arent the yin beads made of yin energy? The yin energy in the yin beads was even more
condensed than the yin energy of the yin fiends. Zuo Mo became more excited the more he
thought about it. He took out a yin bead and started to study it.
Consciousness was extremely sensitive to other consciousness. When Zuo Mo inspected it
before, he had clearly understood the consciousness inside the grey yin splinter. However, the yin
bead was different than the yin energy surrounding the yin fiend. The condensation of the yin
energy in the yin bead far surpassed the yin energy surrounding the yin fiend. He still needed to
slowly figure out how to use his consciousness.
He referred to this grey splinter as yin splinter.
Zuo Mo sunk into his thoughts. He wasnt afraid of finding things out. What he was afraid of
was not finding a direction. Now that he found a direction, he was halfway there.
Pu Yao curiously looked at Zuo Mo thoughtfully as he silently floated forward. Zuo Mo
unconsciously followed him.
Zuo Mo didnt notice that the road under his feet was heading down.
A dark smile came onto the corner of Pu Yaos mouth.
Squeak!
Zuo Mo was suddenly shaken and was frightened out of his thoughts. He raised his head and saw
a yin fiend heading towards him!
He was familiar with the routine and did not panic, He threw out a formation disk with Path
Confusion Formation inscribed in it. It was easy to make a Path Confusion Formation, and it
didnt need much in terms of quality of the materials. So Zuo Mo had made more of them than
anything else. The hundred treasure pouch at his waist was extremely heavy, completely filled
with all kinds of low level formation disks. If it wasnt that his [Vajra Profound Sutra] had
reached the level of golden flesh clothing, and his strength had improved, just the formation
disks would be enough to crush him.
As expected, the yin fiend stopped in its steps.
But quickly, the yin fiend surprised Zuo Mo greatly. The yin energy surrounding the yin fiend
moved restlessly and three grey yin splinters suddenly shot into the surroundings. The Path
Confusion Formation that had just formed was like a wet piece of paper and was torn to pieces.

Only now did Zuo Mo notice the yin energy surrounding this yin fiend was thicker than the
previous yin fiends. As the yin energy was extremely condensed, the grey yin energy looked
black.
Damn it! This yin fiend wasnt a normal one!
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw that Pu Yao had retreated to one side, a smirk on his face.
Zuo Mo didnt have to think to know that it was Pu Yaos fault!
But there was no time to think about it now. After this yin fiend shot out three yin splinters, it
actually was not affected. It was completely immune to the weakening that the other yin fiends
had when they shot out yin splinters. Zuo Mo couldnt help but have a bad feeling! There was
only things like Path Confusion formations left in the hundred treasures pouch. He had
completely used up the good formation disks like the Dragon Tying formation.
Responding panickedly, Zuo Mo barely managed to dodge the yin fiend. The cold wind stirred by
the yin fiend brushing past made his hair stand on end.
Before he could distance himself, shoo shoo shoo, three yin splinters suddenly shot out of the yin
fiend!
Too close!
Unable to dodge in time, Zuo Mo could only start up the turtle shell shield of the Moonwater
Black Turtle armor!
Pew!
The hard turtle shield was like a fragile bubble, dying at the same time as one of the yin splinters.
The other two yin splinters directly headed for his face and vital areas.
Zuo Mos soul fled. At the time of life and death, he focused all his attention, all his ling power
was channeled, all of his consciousness was furiously moving!
He didnt have the time to summon his flying sword!
Didnt have the time to take out the seal soldier!
Didnt have the time to take out the yin fire bead!
Right now, three was only one thing he could use

[Vajra Profound Sutra]!


Hai! Zuo Mo shouted. Golden light flashed across his entire body and then suddenly dimmed.
The light came fast and left even faster, as though it flashed by. After the golden light, Zuo Mos
entire body seemed to be made from dark gold. His eyes were widened angrily, but there was no
expression on his face. He seemed like the Vajrapani coming down to the earth, angry yet
indifferent!
Without any attention to spare, Zuo Mo reached out with his two dark gold palms, swiping at the
two yin splinters!
What one would find strange was that his hands moved extremely slowly, but a feeling of
pressure formed. The formation on the vambraces: Thousand Catty!
At the same time, the third-grade Wind Travel boots silently glowed.
Zuo Mos hands caught the yin splinters.
Slap slap. Two clear explosions. The yin splinters seemed to have been hammered, exploding
into yin energy, and spreading out. Zuo Mo didnt end up well either, his hands trembling, his
fingers in heart rending pain. The [Vajra Profound Sutra] in his body almost collapsed, but he
knew this was not the time to take a break and gritted his teeth to persist!
The third-grade Wind Travel boots lit up. [Wind Travel] and [Movement] both started. Zuo Mo
was like a ghost. After a string of turns, he distanced himself from the yin fiend!
Panting heavily, Zuo Mo stared fixedly at the yin fiend in front of him!
The dangerous changes that had just occurred frightened him. He didnt even know how he
managed to get through it. His heart was beating hard like a heavy drum. He had been too
nervous before, and there hadnt been time for him to be afraid. Now that he had the attention to
spare, he had enormous fear, and terror once again took over his body.
Such a strong yin fiend!
The yin fiend seemed to have detected Zuo Mos power. This time, it didnt charge at him, and
maintained the standoff with Zuo Mo. The yin energy that had been moving around its body
stopped, motionless. Zuo Mo didnt dare to slack off now. The yin fiend in front of his eyes was
like a fully drawn bow. Just the slightest bit of outside force would cause it to attack!
Zuo Mos hand touched the Water Drop sword, the terror inside instantly decreasing by a lot. His
heart slowly resumed calm.

He suddenly understood a little bit the meaning of the flying sword for sword xiu.
However, this was not the time to think about those things. He needed to first kill of this damned
yin fiend in front of him!
With his flying sword in hand, Zuo Mos confidence instantly rose. He didnt hesitate, and didnt
hold anything back as he attacked.
Seven Whirlpools!
Seven whirlpools was made up of countless sword energies and securely surrounded the yin
fiend. The cold energy brimming as the sword energies crisscrossed!
The yin fiend that had been preparing started its attack.
Inside the yin energy it had condensed, a circle of yin splinters shot out at the surroundings with
it at the center like a grey flower blooming.
The yin splinters and Seven Whirlpools smashed into each other.
Bam bam bam!
A string of explosions sounded like fireworks lit up, ringing in the ears.
The seven sword energies whirlpools were destroyed in an instant, but after the whirlpools that
had been made up of those sword energy was torn apart, the power actually increased instead!
After the seven sword energy whirlpools broke, the area that they surrounded instantly turned
into a mess, extremely disordered and chaotic. In the chaos, countless pieces made out of sword
energies flew up and down like countless blades, furiously cutting and slicing!
The pitiful yin fiend was in the center of the chaos and instantly was cut by the countless sword
energies.
Zuo Mo was joyful. He hadnt thought that [Seven Whirlpools] would increase in power after
being broken.
The yin energy around this yin fiend was extremely dense, and the wounds inflicted by the sword
energies were more serious. Looking at the yin fiends struggling in the disorder, Zuo Mos heart
relaxed slightly. Only now was he at an advantage. This yin fiend was really strong!
The yin fiend that he had destroyed with one sword blow and the yin fiend in front of him now
was not on the same level.

Suddenly, the yin fiend gave a piercing yell. The yin energy surrounding its body suddenly
shrunk inward and started to gather.
Zuo Mo was shocked.
The power of the chaos had started to falter. Even those broken sword energies had lost their
sharpness. The yin energy surrounding the yin fiend shrunk, its body becoming even more
concentrated. The sword energies, when they sliced it, gave cracking sounds as though they were
cutting leather.
It knew a move like this!
Zuo Mo was dumbstruck at the endless moves this yin fiend had. He couldnt help but think it
was bad. Even though he didnt know what the yin fiend would do next, he decided to attack first
using another [Seven Whirlpools]!
Seven sword energy whirlpools once again appeared surrounding the yin fiend. The fragments of
sword energy that had lost power were instantly sucked in by the seven whirlpools. The seven
whirlpools instantly grew to twice its size. Under the high speed of revolution, the hissing
became even more clear, shocking to the soul.
Between the seven whirlpools, the yin fiend was still compressing yin energy, not paying
attention to anything else. At this time, its body was the size of a bamboo basket, entirely grey
black like a soft ball of ink.
Zuo Mo gritted his teeth and forcefully revered his ling force!
Break!
Boom!
Seven gigantic whirlpools simultaneously exploded, countless pieces of sword energies shooting
into the surroundings!
The place that the yin fiend was at was the densest place of sword energy fragments, and the
place most severely affected. In that instant, hundreds of sword energy fragments bombed the yin
fiends body.
Pew pew pew!
Countless ripples appeared on the yin fiends inky black body, the yin fiends body shuddered.

A stream of blood came out of the corner of Zuo Mos mouth. When he had reversed the flow of
his ling power, he had injured his channels. However, his eyes were excited. This seven
whirlpools, it was definitely the strongest seven whirlpools he had ever done!
So there were times where the breaking of a sword move could increase its power. He seemed to
understand something.
The harm the second round of [Seven Whirlpools] was great to the yin fiend. It could be seen
from the stability of its body. Before, its compressed body had been like a ball of sticky ink,
floating steadily in the iar. After enduring a storm of countless sword energy fragments, its inky
body seemed to show signs of instability. Occasionally, a yin energy drop would drip down from
its body like ink. However, before the droplet landed on the flow, the yin energy would dissipate
in the air.
The yin fiend was completely infuriated this time!
Zuo Mo could clearly feel its anger, the anger passed on by its consciousness!
At this moment, a little ball of inky yin energy left the body of the yin fiend. What surprised Zuo
Mo was that this little ball of yin energy did not dissipate in the air after it separated.
Suddenly, Zuo Mos heart jumped!
He could feel the consciousness of the yin fiend was burrowing into this little ball of yin energy!
Yin splinter!
Thinking about the great power of the previous yin splinters, and looking at the inky black ball of
yin energy, if the yin splinter was made from such dense yin energy, the power
Zuo Mo shuddered in fear!
What should he use? Li Water Burning Heavens? Or seal soldiers? Or yin fire bead?
Yin fire bead Zuo Mo suddenly thought that he had been thinking about using the yin
energy of the yin bead to create a yin splinter. Hadnt he been just having a headache over the yin
energy of the yin bead being too dense and hard to control with his consciousness?
He stared at the thick yin energy ball that was floating in front of the yin fiend, concentrating on
feeling the transformation it was undergoing.

Zuo Mo suddenly had a feeling. The yin fiend in front of him was the best teacher, teaching him
how to use the yin energy and consciousness to make a yin splinter step by step.
He took out a yin bead, copied the yin fiend and started to slowly feed his consciousness into the
yin bead.
Watching from the side, Pu Yao was stunned as he gaped at Zuo Mo.
Translator Ramblings: Just think of the yin splinters like very tiny intangible darts. Zuo Mo is
inspired by his opponent, which is a first for this novel.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and


Seventeen What Happened
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter One Hundred and Seventeen What Happened
Even though it was the first time he was using his consciousness in this way, but Zuo Mos
spiritual control was much stronger than this yin fiend. He hadnt processed all those materials
for nothing. His spirit was much stronger than the yin fiend in the first place, and his control was
the same. It was just that he hadnt know how to use it. Seeing how the yin fiend in front of him
was using its consciousness, Zuo Mo felt that the paper on the window easily broke.
One burst of consciousness, shaped like a needle, burrowed into the yin bead.
But the yin energy inside the yin bead was too dense. This bit of consciousness was too weak.
Zuo Mo wasnt someone that stuck to rote. He quickly separated a few more strands of
consciousness and merged them together before it was just able to enter the yin bead!
Once his consciousness entered the yin bead, Zuo Mo immediately felt an astounding change!
He seemed to be situated in a grey world. Dense yin energy was floating all around him, cold,
and strange.
Zuo Mos mind became blurred. Only when he felt the hardness coming from his feet did he
suddenly wake!

The consciousness that had entered the yin bead had come from him. The feelings that it
transferred back had conflicted with his own consciousness, and created this momentary daze
suddenly.
It was complicated to describe but it was only the flick of a finger.
A inky black yin splinter appeared in front of the yin fiend. As his the yin splinter also formed,
Zuo Mo felt a terrifying presence and became wary. Luckily, his own yin splinter had formed
at the same time. It was strange but the yin fiend still kept its original shape. However, it turned
from grey to crystal clear without any imperfections.
Even though he had copied everything the yin fiend had done, but Zuo Mo still was not very
confident. He emboldened his heart and threw out this clear crystal bead
The yin fiend sent out the yin splinter at the exact same time.
The inky black yin splinter moved, and howls started. It was like the crying of infants, the yin
energy rippling!
Seeing such a strong presence, Zuo Mo became even less confident. His right hand holding the
Water Drop sword, he forced himself to remain calm. He decided, the moment it turned bad, he
would definitely use Li Water Burning Heavens even if it meant he would be wounded! He had
already been injured before when he had reversed channeled his ling power. If he did Li Water
Burning Heavens, his injuries would worsen but he didnt have any better choices.
Only now did he realize that what he trusted the most was [Li Water Burning Heavens]. Pu Yao
had spoke of the grand power of the yin fire bead but he had never used it before, and he had
almost failed in the process of making the yin bead. Zuo Mo didnt know if its power would be
weakened due to that.
He had personally experienced the power of the seal soldier, and it was a good thing, but it took
time to recite the spell for this thing, and to cast a spell. If he met an emergency, he wouldnt
have the time to use it.
There was only [Li Water Burning Heavens]. As long as he had the Water Drop sword, he could
cast it at any time.
He couldnt help but grimace. It was not hard to cast [Li Water Burning Heavens] but it was
limited by his cultivation. If he was the least bit uncareful, he could be wounded. He decided that
after he returned, he would definitely study some more life-saving moves.

Readying himself, Zuo Mo threw all his thoughts to the back of his mind, all of his attention
fixed on the inky black yin splinter.
The clear crystal bead soundlessly drew the most normal projectile curve. There was no sound,
no presence. The presence of the black yin splinter was astounding. All the yin energy in the
surroundings seemed to be attracted, a cold wind blowing, causing Zuo Mos clothes to flap. It
also cooled down Zuo Mos heart. The howls that came from every direction, the dark and
coldness that entered from every pore. If it was a person with a weaker mental state, they
probably wouldnt even have the thought of fighting under this presence.
In the corner, Pu Yao watched, stunned, as the bead and splinter hit.
Poof!
There wasnt the imagined explosion. There was no light. There was only a clear sound like a
bubble popping.
But with this clear sound, the ever present howls instantly stopped. That bone-aching dark cold
suddenly dissipated.
Holding the Water Drop sword, already prepared to fight for his life, Zuo Mo was stunned in his
spot.
After the hit, the crystal bead had turned into a clear ball of light, and that astoundingly powerful
black yin splinter had actually been melted by this clear light, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
The still-glowing ball headed for the yin fiend. It was like the yin fiend was paralyzed, not
moving as it allowed the ball of light to hit its body.
The yin fiend didnt make a sound as it was hit. It quickly melted and disappeared like a
snowman, along with the ball of light. There was nothing remaining.
The instant the ball of light disappeared, Zuo Mos mind blanked.
After a while, Zuo Mo focused as he looked dumbly at the empty ground.
What what had happened?
The instant the ball of light and the yin fiend had disappeared at the same time, Pu Yaos pupil
had suddenly shrunk from behind Zuo Mo but it quickly recovered.
Pu, this what is this? Zuo Mo turned around and stammered a question. He had thought
of many different results but what happened had definitely not been one of them.

Pu Yao said disdainfully, Blind cat bumping into a dead mouse.


Zuo Mo definitely wouldnt accept such an irresponsible explanation from Pu Yao. He took out
another yin bead, added a bit of consciousness to it. After the yin bead became a crystal bead
again, he threw it out.
Poof. The crystal bead hit the ground, a light flashed, and then it disappeared, not even leaving a
hole on the ground.
Other than his mind blanking for an instantly, there was no response. Zuo Mo was dumbstruck.
Haha! Pu Yao roared with laughter.
Was it really just luck? Zuo Mo didnt believe it. Or did this thing only have an effect against yin
fiends?
We finally managed to encountered a somewhat good yin fiend and you got rid of it, Pu Yao
seemed to be disinterested and threw out a few jingshi. Zuo Mo felt the scene in front of his eyes
flash and they were back in the stone room.
After returning, Pu Yao went back into the sea of consciousness. He sat down again on the
gravestone and closed his eye. Zuo Mo felt that this guy was probably full and was now
digesting it all.
Only after returning to the familiar stone room did Zuo Mo feel the heavy exhaustion. He had
spent a whole day with his mind on high alert, especially when he had encountered the last few
yin fiends. He had spent a lot of energy. Not caring that the ground was cold and wet, he fell
asleep on the rock.
Dont forget!
Even in death, you must not forget!

As Zuo Mo dreamed, a warm green light rose at his chest, turning into a thin stream and spread
into his limbs and organs.
Pu Yao sat on the gravestone, coldly staring at the faraway space.
The Sword Test Conference was full of excitement. Young experts that lit up the eyes of the
audience continuously appeared. The special energy that young expert had caused this Sword

Test Conference to be full of emotion. Most of the young cultivators were heavy on the offense
and light on the defense. A common scene of the Sword Test Conference was flames and light
spreading all around.
This was just the preliminary Sword Test Conference. More and more young xiuzhe were rushing
to get to Dong Fu.
One by one, unfamiliar and unknown names quickly became familiar.
Zuo Mo opened his eyes and climbed up from the wet and cold ground. He stretched out his
limbs and felt that his strength had recovered. He looked at the surroundings. The stone room
was cold and silent. Without him noticing, he had lost his dependence on the ling vein in the rock
room. The vein was now used to make dan, one, because it was quite enough and no one would
disturb him, and two, was the ling spring was a very good place for the water method.
He glanced at the lingdan in the ling spring and put the Water Drop sword into the ling spring to
nurture it. This method didnt produce any visible effects but it could change the quality of the
Water Drop sword from the ground up.
After finishing this, he coiled his legs and sat down, sinking into his thoughts.
He had gained a lot from his trip to the sword cave.
How to use the formation disks, the effects of each formation disk, stealing how to use the yin
splinter from the yin fiends. Even though he didnt really understand the result of what he had
copied using the yin bead, but he knew that it worked. It was just that he didnt understand it.
Other than that, his biggest discovery was that he found he was lacking life-saving measures. The
coordination of low level moves could have power, but the premise was that it required
preparations for many situations. If he suddenly encountered danger, he basically had no time to
consider how to group together those spells.
Other than that, the seal soldier could only be used once and it took a long time for it to activate.
That meant it was fated not to be useful in emergencies.
The only thing he could rely upon was the Water Drop sword. However, just relying on the Water
Drop sword, he was not secure.
A true sword xiu would have absolute confidence in their flying sword and sword scripture, like
Wei Sheng Shixiong. But this definitely did not include Zuo Mo. He never thought of himself as
a pure sword xiu and had no basis for such self confidence.
His gaze landed on the yin fire bead.

He had endured great hardship and trouble the last time when he made the yin fire bead. He
naturally didnt bear to use up the one yin fire bead that he had gone to great trouble to make. He
had never been clear about the power of the yin fire bead. After he had processed so many
materials in Dong Fu, his control of the Stalagmite fire had gone up a level. Adding on the aid of
the fire formation, he had the confidence to make a finished yin fire bead. It was just that he
hadnt thought about this at all. In this trip to the sword cave, after the dangers he had
encountered, he deeply felt the importance of life-saving measures. At a crucial time, if he had
one or two tricks up his sleeve, it would be a completely different outcome.
Zuo Mo went to an unpopulated mountain valley. This pace was more than a hundred kilometers
from Wu Kong Mountain. The old trees in the mountain valley reached for the sky, giving him a
great covering.
The yin bead had put him in extreme danger. He knew deeply that this item could not be seen and
was even more careful.
After finding a position to stand, he took out the yin fire bead. The cloud like patterns on the
bead was extremely beautiful.
In the [Yin Fire Bead Chapter], there were all kinds of strange and weird ways to use the yin fire
bead. Because he hadnt had the yin fire bead before, Zuo Mo hadnt really studied them. This
time, he decided to really take a good look. He quickly picked out a finger spell called [Finger
Throw]. It fulfilled Zuo Mos demands: simple finger moves, and pretty good power.
Alone, he stayed in the mountain valley and practiced [Finger Throw].
[Finger Throw] was not complicated. It was constructed out of five finger motions. However, the
ling power manipulations related to it was slightly complex. Thankfully, even though Zuo Mos
cultivation was limited, but his control of ling power was extremely outstanding. The degree of
difficulty was just a minor problem for him.
After two hours, he had pretty much grasped the finger throw. Four hours later, he was extremely
familiar.
Feeling that it was enough, he stopped his practice.
He was extremely curious, using the finger throw to cast the yin fire bead, what would the power
be?
Translator Ramblings: Wasnt this chapter fun? The recurring nightmare comes again. I wonder
if this world has sleeping aids or something that could prevent dreams that Zuo Mo is ignorant
about.

The discussion about whether the Stalagmite fire was cold or yin or both is really bothering me
so Ill go search and see. For what I remember as the first time in this story, a long description of
an instant finally happened.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and


Eighteen Between Happiness and Grief

Chapter One Hundred and Eighteen Between Happiness and Grief
The yin fire bead flew forward from Zuo Mos hand, turning into a milky white thread of fire,
and hit a broad tree that would need seven or eight people to circle it.
The milky white flame spread on the ancient tree at an astounding speed. In a few seconds, the
milky white flame had covered the entire tree, not even leaving behind a leaf. The tree, which
had been bursting with vitality just seconds ago, was now lifeless. As the milky white flame
passed, the green leaves instantly turned a chilling white. Quickly, the entire tree was white, and
not a bit of green to be seen. The white old tree spread a pressuring chill. Snowflakes started to
stir up around the surroundings.
The white leaves started to break off from the tip, like it was being weathered, falling down.
A burst of wind blew, the snowflakes danced, and countless white fragments left the old tree,
carried by the wind.
The enormous ancient tree, in front of Zuo Mo, turned to a cloud of white dust and disappeared
in the wind.
Zuo Mo was deeply shocked by what happened in front of him.
Returning to the little yard, his mind was still slightly dazed. The yin fire bead was astoundingly
powerful, as expected. If it had hit a person, Zuo Mo guessed that even those ningmai xiuzhe
wouldnt be able to block it.
For a last resort life-saving measure, the more powerful it was the better!
After that, he put all his energy into creating yin fire beads. With the aid of the Three-Turn fire
formation, the process of making yin fire beads was extremely smooth. The yin fire beads that
were created this time were different from last time. The entire bead was pure white and
flawless, without any trace remaining of the yin bead. However, after Zuo Mo processed one yin

bead, he needed to meditate to recover.The ling power and mental power used to create it was
astounding; no wonder it was a weapon of great destruction.
Looking at the twenty yin fire beads in his hands, Zuo Mo felt very confident.
He occasionally would dream, if he threw these twenty yin fire beads out at once, what would it
look like?
Having yin fire beads, Zuo Mo didnt care about not mastering the yin splinter. Strangely, Pu Yao
seemed to have forgotten that he still owed him many yin fiends and didnt urge him to go to the
sword cave.
Zuo Mo was happy to be idle but before he could enjoy the pleasure from having made the yin
fire beads, after he inspected his ling power, his mood instantly dived down a cliff.
Damn it!
His cultivation actually stopped growing!
Why was it like this? The sudden blow was like lightning on a clear day, striking him dumb, his
head ringing. After the mo matrix had been carved, the rate of his cultivation progress had
dramatically slowed. He had been worried, but had maintained his calm because his cultivation
still had been growing.
But if his cultivation stopped growing
He didnt dare to imagine it!
After Pu Yaos advice from before, Zuo Mo was extremely miserly with each bit of ling power
inside his body. This had caused him to be extremely sensitive to ling power changes inside his
body. He could find the slightest change.
He was only in zhuji stage, it was the stage that cultivation should increase the fastest. He had
spend large amounts of time everyday on practicing [Embryonic Breathing Spiritual Cultivation]
in hopes that he could make it up. It was good if he just increased a little bit of ling power. It had
been like he imaged before. Due to the mo matrix, the increase in ling power had been slow but
his cultivation had still been tenaciously growing. However, for five continuous days, there
hadnt been one iota of change in his ling energy. He had never encountered a situation like this!
Zuo Mo was nervous like he had never been before!

If his ling power stopped growing, his cultivation would forever stop in zhuji! Terror spread
through his heart. He ran into the sea of consciousness. Pu Yao was sitting on the gravestone with
his eyes closed. No matter how Zuo Mo called him, he didnt move. He was like a statue. Pu Yao
was meditating. It wasnt like he could ask the sect leader and the elders about this. He wouldnt
optimistically hope that Second Shibo and the others, who had become famous in the Yao Hunt,
wouldnt recognize the mo matrix.
His cultivation paused in the stage of zhuji
What about the dream? What would he use to search for the person that changed his features and
erased his mind?
It was like Zuo Mo had been robbed of all his strength, and collapsed on the ground. Ever since
he learned his features had been changed and mind erased, he had continuously told himself to
search for the answer to his dream, to search for the answer to why his mind and features had
been altered. But when the conviction that had pushed him forward had been broken from its
foundation, he didnt know what to do.
The sky was dark. He was lying on the rooftop, the sound tablet broadcasting beside him. His
head was pillowed on his arms as he looked dazedly at the sky.
His thoughts had floated far away. How long had it been since he had laid like this? After he had
decided to search for answer, the times that he had just laid on the roof to listen to the sound
tablet had decreased. Each day was filled with countless scriptures and spells that had to be
practiced. Each day, he needed to tell himself repeatedly, he needed to work harder
In the dark night, the stars were like an ocean.
Exhausted, Zuo Mo was like a child, coiled into a ball, falling deeply asleep with the sound tablet
broadcasting.
There were no dreams.

The next day, the warm sunshine shone on his body.


Opening his eyes, Zuo Mo felt his body was unspeakably relaxed. The depression of yesterday
had been swept away. Thinking of his tragic perspective yesterday, he felt it was humorous. It
was fine if his cultivation was not growing. As long as he tried, he would find the root of the
problem. Having slept, his body was now filled with energy, filled with motivation.

Without ling power, he still had spiritual power, formations, ling farming, dan-making, and
forging!
He inspected the ling power inside his body. As expected, it hadnt changed at all. However, he
didnt have a tragic outlook now, but was extremely calm. After coming out of meditation, he
slowly pondered and felt that he needed to determine the direction that he would take.
After spending a short amount of time, he decided what he would focus on primarily
formations!
To him, whose cultivation had stopped growing, the importance of formations had rose to an
incomparable height. To solve the problem of the pause in his cultivation, he could not avoid
formations. Now that he knew how to make formation disks, he could also use those attacking
formation disks. Formations were also great aids to dan-making and forging. No matter what
road he chose, it would need jingshi. How to make jingshi, it was a problem that Zuo Mo could
not avoid.
His spiritual power was different than his ling power and its progress hadnt been affected at all,
still increasing at a pretty good pace. It was a pity that he had such a treasure but didnt know
how to use it. The only uses he knew involving the consciousness was the consciousness stab and
yin splinter. The power of the consciousness stab was too small. The power of the yin splinter
was good but Zuo Mo gave up on it. The yin splinter required pure and dense yin energy. The
only way that Zuo Mo could think of was using the yin bead. However, the yin bead was too
outstanding and would easily bring a disaster down on him. As a life-saving measure, the yin
splinter wasnt as powerful and convenient as the yin fire bead.
Other than that, he could still expect more from [Vajra Profound Sutra]. Zuo Mo decided to find
a few spells that body xiu used to see if he could use something. He might be able to put some
brainpower on formations. Last time the Golden Flesh Clothing coordinated with Thirty
Thousand Catty had managed to stop two yin splinters directly.
Hue hue, he could also consider using the medicine-seal-style! He could make the lingdan
himself, he could also forge the talismans. As to the paper seals, he wouldnt object to learning
seal writing.
The more Zuo Mo thought and clarified his thoughts, the more excited he got.
The heavens would not shut off all roads. Without ling power, he still had many other paths.
Reality proved that when a person was pushed to the edge of the cliff, they could also explode
with potential.

In the morning, Li Ying Feng opened the store door. Seeing Zuo Mo outside the door, she
stopped and asked instinctively, Shidi, why are you here again?
Zuo Mo made a sound, not knowing what to say. It looked like Li Ying Feng Shijie had really
been frightened by the Inky Black Lotus seed incident from last time.
Li Ying Feng instantly realized how inappropriate her words were and added, Arent you
attending the Sword Test Conference? Shouldnt you be preparing for battle right now?
Zuo Mo spread his hands. Our sect will have to depend on Eldest Shixiong. My bit of power
isnt enough.
Hearing this, Li Ying Feng frowned and said seriously, Shidi, dont underestimate yourself.
Shidi had comprehended sword essence in zhuji. This kind of talent, other than Eldest Shixiong,
no one in the sect can compare. Shidi cannot let yourself go, and not think about improvement.
Zuo Mo sweated. He knew Shijie was looking out for him but didnt know how to explain. He
could only say, This brother isnt slacking off, but a bit tight on the funds right now.
Li Ying Fengs face was shocked. Where did you spend your jingshi? You earned so much
jingshi just recently, you used it all? How did you use it up?
Zuo Mo didnt know what to say. He couldnt tell Shijie that there was a bottomless hole hiding
away in his consciousness that ate jingshi. Rationally, several thousand pieces of third-grade
jingshi was an enormous sum for a zhuji xiuzhe. If this was in the past, he wouldnt have even
thought of it. Even in Dong Fu, it was an shocking sum. Right now, Zuo Mo was telling her that
he spent all the jingshi. How could Li Ying Feng not be shocked?
Jingshi is never enough to spend. Zuo Mo deflected as he widened his eyes to stare at his
shijie.
Unable to resist Zuo Mos nagging, Li Ying Feng consented to Zuo Mos request to open up for
business again. Due to the reputation he had accumulated in the past, once Zuo Mo opened,
many xiuzhe heard and came.
Zuo Mo didnt know that he had a small reputation with the production xiuzhe of Dong Fu.
Especially when he had successfully cut the fourth-grade cold manget, and then the bomb of
successfully processing the fourth-grade Inky Black Lotus seed. Zuo Mos control of fire had
been exaggerated to the extreme.
This time, Zuo Mo was open to payment through jingshi, talismans, and jade scrolls. Everyone
welcomed it, and his business was busy.

After a day, Zuo Mo didnt look as exhausted as he once would have. He handed a jade scroll to
Li Ying Feng. Shijie, could you help me see how much jingshi for all these materials?
Li Ying Feng took the jade scroll and scanned it quickly. About fifty pieces of third-grade
jingshi. Hm, Shidi, you are interested in formations now? There wasnt anything high-grade on
the list Zuo Mo provided. It was all first-grade materials. Fifty pieces of third-grade jingshi, it
was enough to fill half of the yard. Li Ying Feng became even more curious how Shidi had spent
the thousands pieces of third-grade jingshi from last time.
En, yes, formations are very interesting. This is fifty pieces of third-grade jingshi. Shijie, please
help prepare it for me.
No problem. Li Ying Feng crisply took the jingshi. She knew the shops in Dong Fu almost as
well as her palm. It wouldnt take much effort to buy and gather those materials. As to
cultivating, Shidi was more talented than her and certainly had his own plans.
Translator Ramblings: I now have a FAQ page. Please read it and comment if you have any more
questions.
The mo matrix isnt all that Pu said it to be. Poor Zuo Mo, he needs to earn jingshi to comfort his
soul. Pity he cant go sue Pu for false advertising. Zuo Mo is a pretty good optimist. Also, hes
the guy you want to be with if youre stuck out in the wilderness without any tools. Hes very
multi-purpose.

Nineteen Intelligence

Chapter One Hundred and Nineteen Intelligence
Zuo Mo opened his eyes as he came out of meditation. He shook his head. There still hadnt been
any change in his cultivation. This was the fifteen day that his cultivation hadnt moved. Pu Yao
was still in meditation and he didnt know when the guy would wake up.
He forcefully shook his head, throwing all those thoughts out of his mind. His eyes once again
landed in the yard. The yard was the backyard of the store, and naturally couldnt compare to his
little yard in the West Wind Valley. The little yard was filled with all kinds of materials, jade
stones, gold thread, and jadeite bamboos etc. Most of the materials were all cheap first and
second-grade materials, but the sheer volume was amazing.

Zuo Mo started to flip through the materials, occasionally summoning the Stalagmite fire to
process some materials. Sometimes, he would take out a little knife to shape the material into the
form required. He would sometimes suddenly stop, and sink into his thoughts. The materials
flowed like water through his hands. He carefully placed some of them in the corner, and threw
some of them to the ground carelessly.
After laboring for four hours, when the sound tablet announced the time, he finally woke up from
his work.
It was time to work and earn jingshi. He reluctantly rose up. Before, he hadnt been interested in
formations and felt it hard to learn. Now that he was concentrating on it, he actually found that
there were many interesting places.
Things like sword scriptures and spells would frequently have places where the descriptions
would be lacking, and promoted comprehension. Only formations focused on transformations of
yinyang and the five elements. Even though it was incomparably complex, but after careful
study, Zuo Mo was able to understand the main concepts.
Only after Zuo Mo left did Li Ying Feng come over to clean up the yard.
As she cleaned, she sighed. No wonder Shidi felt he didnt have enough jingshi to spend.
Spending like this, how could it be enough? Li Ying Feng was responsible for buying all the
materials that Zuo Mo needed. She was clear to Zuo Mos daily expenses. Shidi would spend
from a minimum of thirty pieces of third-grade jingshi, to over a hundred third-grade jingshi on
materials everyday. This was just because Shidi wanted low-grade materials. If he used middlegrade materials, then the expenses would fly to an intimidating step.
She had never heard of anyone who learned formations like this.
However, Shidi was a weird person. He didnt learn like other people, and he didnt make jingshi
like other people. Quite a few times, she had wanted to urge Shidi to be more frugal, but when
she thought about the jingshi that Shidi made every day, the words that reached her mouth went
away.
Shidi only spent six hours taking jobs each day. All of his other time was completely spend on
the mountain of materials piled up in the yard.
She stopped walking, her gaze landing on a formation disk beside her feet. The initial days,
formation disks were what Shidi had made the most. However, after that, the number of
formation disks that Shidi made decreased. It had been a few days since Shidi had made a
formation disk.

Why was he making formation disks again? Was he preparing for the Sword Test Conference?
Li Ying Feng picked the formation disk up from the ground. Closely examining it, she found that
she didnt understand what was written on the disk at all.
She laughed. Wei Sheng Shixiong and Zuo Mo Shixiong were both genius. How could normal
people understand the mind of geniuses. Before Zuo Mo Shidi, Li Ying Feng had never seen
formation disks before. She carefully put the formation disk in the corner. After cleaning up fro
Zuo Mo for this many days, she could easily sort out what was useful and what was trash.
Zuo Mos business was average today. Since a few days ago, his business had declined. He knew
that it couldnt be avoid. There were only so many xiuzhe that need his services. It was due to the
Sword Test Conference that he had earned so much. The people that could exchange and pay
valuable goods were not local xiuzhe.
Cultivation was piled up with jingshi. Zuo Mo knew this from a long time ago, but only after
studying formations did he truly have an understanding of the phrase. Formations were
completely built up with jingshi!
Seeing that his stream of income was not long-lasting, his own studies would probably also
pause soon.
However, in a short amount of time, it would be his turn to attend the Sword Test Conference. At
this time, he was too lazy to care about earning jingshi. It would wait until after the Sword Test
Conference.
When Zuo Mo cleaned up for the day, Li Ying Feng handed him a jade scroll.
What is this? Zuo Mo asked strangely.
The information on a few attendees of the Sword Test Conference. Li Ying Feng saw that Zuo
Mo was looking strangely at her and explained, The sect leader left me in charge of the
logistics. I have to do something. Oh, and some information about the Sword Test Conference.
Oh. Zuo Mo took it and asked, Did you send it to Eldest Shixiong and Luo Li?
Li Ying Feng was angry, the tendons in her forehead jumping. It would have been fine if Zuo Mo
hadnt mentioned it but since he did, she was extremely displeased. After the sect leader put her
in charge of logistics, she had especially gathered the informations and given it to Wei Sheng
Shixiong and Luo Li Shixiong. Wei Sheng Shixiong had disappeared without a trance, and Luo Li
Shixiong had looked at her in puzzlement and asked, Whats the use in this?

She had almost died from anger.


Seeing Zuo Mos unconcerned attitude, her displeasure reached a peak and she gave a cold snort,
turned and left. Zuo Mo rubbed his head in puzzlement, ignorant of what had set Shijie off.
Returning to his room, he took the jade scroll and started to browse through.
There was a lot of information inside the jade scroll, especially for those powerful experts. It
seemed that Shijie had put a lot of effort. As he read, Zuo Mo started to get interested.
Gu Rong Ping, from Clear Sky Lake, called the strongest among the younger generation of Clear
Sky Lake. He might be warm and gentle, but his title of the strongest of Clear Sky Lake was
based in his battles. From two years ago, he fought sect after sect without one loss. That had
created his strongest in Clear Sky Lake title.
Clear Sky Lake had beautiful scenery and dense ling energy. It was much more prosperous than
Dong Fu, and the sects there outnumbered Dong Fu. The title of strongest, it really had some
substance to it.
Finishing off Gu Rong Pings information, Zuo Mo had a feeling that this Gu Rong Ping would
be Eldest Shixiongs enemy. As to himself, he didnt have any thought. If it wasnt for the order
of the sect leader, he definitely wouldnt attend something like this Sword Test Conference.
With that time, he would rather earn jingshi, Zuo Mo muttered.
He kept on reading. Nan Men Yang, Gui Feng etc. None of them were simple people. Zuo Mo
also saw quite a few that he was familiar with. Dong Fu Halls Yu Bai, Ling Ying Sects Chang
Heng, Dong Qi Sword Sects Zong Ming Yan etc were all included. He even saw a person that he
had met a long time ago, Chi Sword Sects Liang Luo. However, the other person, Shi Xiang,
who had given him the Ice Crystal sword was not on the list.
Hmm.
Zuo Mos gaze suddenly landed on the picture of one of the people in the jade scroll. The person
was wearing a black veiled hat. Wasnt this the person that came to him to cut the cold magnet?
So this guy was also attending the competition!
He didnt know anyone else on the list.
However, when he saw their cultivation level, he was instantly speechless.

Ningmai, ningmai, ningmai all ningmai! All the xiuzhe that were not local who had passed
through the preliminary Sword Test Conference were all ningmai. Zuo Mo didnt have any
thoughts of struggling at all. What he was pondering now was surrendering immediately when he
was called up. When the warm and harmonious smile of the sect leader flashed through his head,
he instantly shook, and cleared his head, brushing away the thought.
Being injured was a minor matter. If the sect leader was thinking about ge, then ge wouldnt have
good days in the future!
Seeing this list that could really be considered grand, he felt, in his sect, only Eldest Shixiong had
any hope of victory. Even Luo Li Shixiong wasnt anything to look at.
Luckily, there were no jindan xiuzhe. Otherwise, Zuo Mo felt his heart couldnt bear it.
Following that was the rules for this years Sword Test Conference. Li Ying Feng Shijie probably
had guessed that the three of them would have been concerned about this so she had completely
listed everything. There wasnt anything unclear in the rules. After the preliminary Sword Test
Conference was the true Sword Test Conference.
The first two rounds were random one on one matches, followed by a competition without any
rules! At that time, Elder Tian Song Zi would open the Great Pine Pavilion of Dong Fu Hall for
all the attendees to enter. Inside Dong Fu Halls Great Pine Pavilion, any contestant could attack
any other person until the other lost the ability to battle. In the end, the last ten remaining people
would become the winners of this competition. To guarantee that there wouldnt be any fatalities
among the contestants, there would be ten or so jindan judges that would be present the entire
time. The ranking of the ten people would also be decided by the jindan experts.
Tsk tsk, even jindan experts were coming out to be judges. Ten at a time, this would really be
spectacular!
Zuo Mo hadnt understood this Sword Test Conference at all. Such a public rousing, and cost
intensive Sword Test Conference, there wasnt any use.
Oh, maybe the elders had their own thoughts. Zuo Mo kept on reading and his mind jumped.
What was after were the prizes for this Sword Test Conference.
Zuo Mos eyes were bright as he looked at the rows of prizes, drooling.
Fourth-grade Pine Green Peak sword, fourth-grade Hundred Desolate Lucky Beast belt, fourthgrade Scattered Gold coronet, third-grade Elemental Cloud Water sleeve, third-grade Sky Woven
clothing, third-grade Ice Snake Ling armor

There were ten high-quality talismans. The order to pick was based on the ranking received in
the competition. Only now did Zuo Mo understand why so many xiuzhe had come to Dong Fu to
attend the Sword Test Conference.
As they said, people die for wealth, birds die for food! He gritted his teeth and thought in fury.
When his gaze swept across one of the prizes, countless ripples started in his heart. He was
extremely tempted. At this time, he only hated how low his strength was.
Without an exception, the first ten talismans were the finest of the finest. They were even a few
ranks above the talismans he had taken from the wastrels of Ling Ying sect. For some of the
prizes, Zuo Mo wanted to sell himself, and exchange for the talisman.
After greedily looking through the first ten prizes, Zuo Mo gluttonously looked down.
There were also third-grade talismans in the lower ranks, but were clearly lower in quality than
the first ten. Zuo Mo had read with great interest. Okay, even if ge wouldnt get one, he could
still enjoy looking at them, Zuo Mo comforted himself. These few days, he had been sunk in the
world of formations, spending great mental effort. Relaxing now, he felt light.
Just as he browsed randomly through the prizes and occasionally calculating the prices, as he
drooled.
Suddenly, when his gaze reached one of the prizes, he first stilled and then suddenly stood up!
Translator Ramblings: The Sword Test Conference is soon Zuo Mo has to prepare. Pu
hadnt shown up this chapter so Zuo Mo is stuck in zhuji for now. Look at the cultivation of all
his competitors!
World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Twenty An Irresistible Temptation!

This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter One Hundred and Twenty An Irresistible Temptation!
Zuo Mos gaze was fixed on this jade scroll. His eyes did not leave it for even a moment.
[Elementary Formations]. In the list of the prizes, it was ranked fifty-sixth, as a second-grade
prize. The description of this jade scroll was very simple: A jade scroll about the elementary
formations, suited for beginners.
But what attracted Zuo Mos gaze was the two characters that labeled the origins of this jade
stick Kun Lun!

He suddenly became excited!


Kun Lun! This jade scroll was from Kun Lun!
These two words, it was like they had magic, they made Zuo Mos heart beat rapidly. It had to be
said that the ground under his feet, the Sky Moon Jie he lived in, even the bigger jie that the
jindan experts had come from, they all belonged to one name: Kun Lun!
In the heart of any sword xiu, Kun Lun was the ultimate existence. It meant strength, it meant
domination, it meant ultimate power, it meant the strongest sword xiu. It was the true master of
Kun Lun realm, and the leader of the cultivation world.
There were not many stories about Kun Lun. For the great majority of xiuzhe, Kun Lun was
distant and high up, an extremely mysterious place.
In reality, when Zuo Mo first saw the two characters, he had blanked for a little while. For a
normal disciple of a little sect in Sky Moon Jie, these two words were too distant and unfamiliar.
However, when he managed to react, he could not control his excitement.
The bigger the sect, the more the importance they placed on the education of the disciples that
had just entered the sect. They would create some jade scrolls for the beginner disciples to study.
These beginner jade scrolls would usually be extremely expansive and would contain all kinds of
basic spells.
Because the beginner scrolls required a specialist to make, the number produced each year was
limited. There wouldnt be many left over and there were even fewer that spread out.
The beginner jade scrolls of each sect were different. They would be written according to the
specialties of the sect. Even in the same sect, as the xiuzhe responsible for writing them each year
was different, there would be different versions.
Of course, for small sects like Wu Kong Sword Sect, there naturally wouldnt be any beginner
jade scrolls. There were many new disciples that entered large sect annually, and there was high
demand. Since there were many experts, they had the manpower and the wealth to make them. In
small sects, the elders would pass on knowledge through speech to their own disciples.
The beginner formation jade scroll of Kun Lun, it was something that Zuo Mo didnt even dare
to dream about.
Even though it came out of Kun Lun, but it was still only a beginner jade scroll, so it was ranked
fifty-sixth in the prizes. Those that attended the Sword Test Conference were mostly ningmai

xiuzhe. For them, a beginners scroll was not of much use, much less a formations jade scroll. If it
was a beginner sword jade scroll, there probably would be many that would want it.
Kun Luns sword scripture
The temptation that this jade scroll was to Zuo Mo was incomparable.Wu Kong Sword Sect
didnt have systematic formation jade scrolls. He had to piece together everything he had learned
from bits and pieces. This caused him to feel extremely frustrated and left him stuck frequently.
If he had such a jade scroll, he would probably walk into a lot fewer detours.
Without even thinking about it, he made a decision, he needed to get this jade scroll!
But when he gradually calmed down, he started to ponder the probability of success. In the prizes
for this Sword Test Conference, this jade scroll was not attractive. The participants from the list
should not have much interest in this jade scroll. But no matter what, if he wanted to get a chance
to pick this jade scroll, it was necessary for him to pass through the first two rounds.
Thinking about the numerous ningmai on the list, Zuo Mo felt a prickle on his head. But if he
had to watch as this jade scroll brushed past him, he was not willing, not willing!
After thinking about it, he made a decision. No matter what, he had to try!
This beginner scroll completely turned around the attitude Zuo Mo held towards the Sword Test
Conference. He felt he needed to make some preparations.
The xiuzhe population in Dong Fu kept on growing. The preliminary Sword Test Conference had
just finished yesterday. After five more days, this years Dong Fu Sword Test Conference would
finally arrive at the beginning of its peak. Dong Fus order had not been disturbed as the nonlocal xiuzhe came in. With more than ten jindan present, this place was the most orderly in Dong
Fu.
Do you want one? The match list for the Sword Test Conference that just came out. With this
list, dont worry about what to attend!
Exclusively selling in depth information on the fighters of this years Sword Test Conference.
The ranking produced by the composite reviews of countless high experts. Exclusive! Definitely
exclusive! It will become your most trusted partner when you make a bet!
Zuo Mo, walking in the notice altar, felt a bit of interest as he heard the advertisements. He
wasnt interested in the match list which had just been announced two days ago. But this ranking
was slightly interesting. After walking a few more step, he heard calls again. It was also a power-

based ranking, but another version. In a few strides, Zuo Mo heard at least four versions of the
ranking. The price was actually the same, each one a piece of third-grade jingshi.
Only later did he realized that the betting houses of Dong Fu had all been opened. Not including
those who had a habit of gambling, even the normal people would make a few bets just out of
interest. If there was demand, there naturally would be supply.
Zuo Mo had been thinking about studying his opponent so he bought a copy of every ranking.
He took a close look. These rankings did have some substance.
The person ranked first was Gu Rong Ping, the participant that still had not lost up until now. Gu
Rong Ping was placed first on almost all of the rankings, and there seemed to be consensus.
Starting from the second person, each version would have different choices. However, in the first
ten, some people appeared very frequently.
However, what Zuo Mo felt strange was that the local fighters rarely appeared in the top ten.
Only Yu Bai had appeared in a few of the rankings. The reason they gave was universal. The
disciple of Tian Zong Zi, has a definite local advantage!
Zuo Mo couldnt help but get angry!
What type of trash had made these rankings! Eldest Shixiong was in the twenty and thirties! In
his heart, Eldest Shixiong might not get first, but he definitely would be in the top ten!
Suddenly, he thought about himself. Oh, what would his ranking be?
His gaze when down the rankings. Nothing, still nothing, still nothing
When his gaze landed on the last name on the ranking, he saw his own name. At the side, it gave
a reason. The only zhuji xiuzhe in this years Sword Test Conference. Zuo Mo first blanked, and
then became furious! He looked at another ranking, his name was still at the end. The reason was
the same.
That wasnt right. Luo Li Shixiong was also in zhuji, why did they say he was the only zhuji
participant? Zuo Mo felt it was extremely unfair. He quickly scanned the ranking and found Luo
Li Shixiongs name.
Ningmai! Zuo Mo instantly blanked.
When did Luo Li Shixiong enter ningmai? What sort of trash ranking was it, it was all nonsense!

Zuo Mo decided to not pay attention to these rankings. He had a clear goal for coming out today.
In the Free Market, Fu Jin blanked when he saw Zuo Mo, and then enthusiastically came over,
Mo ge, how come you have the time to cove over? Dont you need to attend the Sword Test
Conference? Those beady eyes, however, could not disguise the mirth within.
Zuo Mo saw Fu Jins expression and said irritably, What, do you have an opinion?
No, no! Fu Jin waved his hands, and said fawningly, Mo ge, if you come out, even Gu Rong
Ping isnt a match for you. If you want him to break one leg, he wouldnt dare to break the other
leg
Okay, okay! Even Zuo Mo felt that Fu Jins words were too fake. One Gu Rong Ping by
himself was more than enough to defeat ten Zuo Mos. He reached out, Did you prepare the
stuff?
Fu Jin snickered and took out a jade scroll from his bosom, putting it in Zuo Mos hand, When
your opponent was announced, I started searching! This has all the records of the matches that
Chao An has participated in, and some stuff gathered from other avenues.
Zuo Mo was moved. He knew that Fu Jin had put enormous effort on this little jade scroll. Chao
An was Zuo Mos upcoming opponent. Zuo Mo had asked Fu Jin to search for all the
information on his opponent in the past. Li Ying Feng Shijie might work hard, but she only had
to manage a little shop. In this area, she was not as skilled as a snakehead like Fu Jin.
Zuo Mo shoved a bag at Fu Jin.
The moment Fu Jin held it, he knew how much jingshi was in the bag. He was not happy at all,
and said expressionlessly as he stared at Zuo Mo, What is this for?
Zuo Mo shook his head, Not for you, for you to pay out. Im still hoping that you could help me
prepare the information for my opponent for the next round!
Fu Jins face finally turned from cloudy to sunny and snickered, Thats great. Ive bet quite a
little sum on you. Dont let me lose!
Oh, then pray for me to win! Zuo Mo spread his hands.
The other was in ningmai. There was a gigantic gap between the two of them. Even Zuo Mo
didnt have that much confidence in himself. He just wanted to try his best. In reality, he could
not overcome the temptation of that Kun Lun beginner formations jade scroll. As the person of

the lowest cultivation attending the competition, it was rational that the odds were against him.
This was also why his match was the first of the conference.
The first match. If he became an embarrassment, it would be a good one! He definitely would
not have a good time when he returned.
Zuo Mo had cursed the person who had arranged the matches countless times.

Wu Kong Hall.
Yan Les expression was slightly strange, Little Mo actually got arranged to be the first match.
Pei Yuan Ran laughed, Probably Ling Ying Sect. Little Mo really made them lose face last time.
Its rational, rational.
Shi Feng Rong was infuriated, Rational my ass! Dare to harass my disciple, they dont want to
live! The Thousand Flower hundred poison miasma that I just finished making hasnt had a place
to experiment yet
The other three instantly felt their heads inflate. They hurriedly stopped Shi Feng Rong who had
almost exploded and comforted her.
Dont worry, dont worry. Little Mo is very slippery, wont really get in trouble. Pei Yuan Ran
comforted, Even more, it would be good for him to get some experience. As to face, us old
people dont care about that.
Yan Le smiled from the side. Shi Feng Rong sat angrily on the chair. A cold light flash through
Xin Yans eyes.
I hadnt thought that Luo Li would enter ningmai this quickly. It seems like that his fight with
Little Mo last time had been of great benefit, Yan Le said.
Luo Li doesnt lack talent. It was just his mentality that stopped him from progressing. Now
that he has been reborn, our sect has another great warrior, Pei Yuan Ran said, nodding. The joy
in his voice was extremely evident.
Shi Feng Rong looked in the surroundings and her brows furrowed, Wheres Wei Sheng?
Translator Ramblings: Zuo Mo is ranked last the only sheep among all the wolves.

Synthous correctly guessed the prize was related to formations.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and


Twenty One Wager
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter One Hundred and Twenty One Wager
In an empty patch of wilderness.
Wei Sheng and a white-clothed male were facing off.
Who are you? Why are you entering Wu Kong Mountain? What do you want to do? Wei Sheng
said in a heavy voice, his Splitting Rainbow sword was ready to attack. This person of unknown
origins had snuck into Wu Kong Mountain. He had accidentally discovered him. The others
cultivation was slightly above him. He had just come out of the sword formation. After fighting
for a long time and having just broken through into ningmai, his mentality was at the highest
level. His perception was more sensitive than it ever had been. If this was before, he definitely
wouldnt have detected the other person. The other was so strong, he was in awe!
He had pursued the other for three hundred kilometers and had almost lost them a few times.
What he had given him an even worse feeling was the other person seemed to have had not used
his full power.
Wei Shengs personality was courageous. Even though he knew the other was strong, he didnt
have any thoughts to retreat. The desire for battle rose in his eyes.
I heard that Young Master Wei had caused a natural apparition when entering zhuji, the sword
energy reaching to the skies. Seeing you today, you really have lived up to your reputation. After
entering the sword cave, Young Master seems to have learned a lot. Your sects [Void Sword]
finally has been uncovered. It really is auspicious. The white-clothed males voice was warm
and gentle, like a clear spring. Paired with his extremely handsome appearance, he appeared to
be a graceful and learned young man, someone that people would have a hard time finding
dislike for.
Wei Sheng was even more wary. Other than the sects disciple, no one else knew that he had
entered the sword cave. This person was so clear about the sword cave. If previously, he hadnt
been certain if the other had deliberately snuck into Wu Kong Mountain, he was now certain that
this person had been secretly gathering information about the sect, and had malicious aims.

If you are not willing to give your name, there is nothing to say, His tiger-like eyes brightened,
and he shouted. The air around him moved, yet there was no wind, and slowly started to circle
around him. The Splitting Rainbow sword appeared his hand, pointed at the white-clad male.
The white-clad male found his surroundings darken as though he was situated in a void.
An empty and murderous nothingness.
An abnormal light flashed through the white-clothed males eyes as he praised, Young Master
Wei is as talented as expected. [Void Sword] will definitely be spectacular in Young Masters
hands!
As he spoke, the figure of the white-clothed male that was standing still slowly faded. When he
said the last word, his figure vanished at the same time, only leaving behind his voice.
Shock finally came into Wei Shengs eyes!
His consciousness repeatedly scanned the surroundings. There were no traces. The other had left.
Under the lock of his sword essence, he had disappeared into thin air! He made a thoughtful
sound, stepped on the Splitting Rainbow sword, turned into a red light and flew in the direction
of Wu Kong Sword Sect.
When his figure disappeared on the horizon, on the spot the white-clothed male had disappeared,
a figure slowly appeared.
Is it him? He gazed at the sky as he said to himself.

Sky Moon House was the best dwelling in Dong Fu. It was halfway up the mountain, constructed
on top of a ling vein. There were forty seven suites in total, all with the necessary talismans. The
ling energy inside the rooms was extremely thick. The xiuzhe that passed through enjoyed resting
at this place, but its price was extremely high. Ten pieces of third-grade jingshi per day. Zuo Mo
might have earned a fair bit each day, but if he had to live in Sky Moon House, he would barely
manage to pay the rent for each day, much less any other service.
Sky Moon House, which was usually half-filled, was entirely filled today. The rent each day
jumped from ten pieces of third-grade jingshi to fifty pieces of third-grade jingshi. Even so, there
were no vacancies. All the experts that came from different parts of Sky Moon Jie were living
here.

The alcohol of Sky Moon House was Old Wang Alcohol. The ling food came from Master
Shaos Food Pavilion.
The Star Pavilion, the gathering place of Sky Moon House, had numerous day stones and broken
crystals embedded in the ceiling, creating a roof of stars. In the rooms inside the Star Pavilion,
the Serene Blue Ivy climbed all over the place, the blue fluorescence adding hints of mystery.
Brother Chao is really lucky! Beside the stone table, a person couldnt help stating.
The people seats were all attendees of the competition. Each persons face was full of envy.
Without a doubt, Chao An had been the luckiest in his draw of all of them.
Chao An was smug inside, but said, Im actually envious of everyone else. You can all have a
good fight. For me, even if I won, I wont be praised, He came from Fort Chao, cultivated the
extremely obscure Fiery Polaris Hammer, extremely strong and exquisite.
Brother Chao is getting an advantage and playing humble, One of the other people smiled and
said, Ask anyone else here, who doesnt want to switch with Brother Chao? Reputation is
intangible, but the prize is real.
The people seated all agreed.
Chao An could only beg for forgiveness. In the end, only after he promised to pay for the meal
did the others stop.
In the little pavilion covered with light gauze, the figures of two people could be barely made out
from the outside. If the gauze was lifted, anyone would instantly see it was the pick to win the
competition, Gu Rong Ping, and opposite, him was a silent person wearing a black gauze veil.
I had wanted to find a quiet place. But I didnt expect to see these kind of people, Gu Rong
Ping frowned, and said discontentedly. His eyes landed on the black gauze of the person sitting
opposite him, his voice warm as he said, I hadnt thought I would encounter Shimei here. I had
thought it would take another five years before seeing Shimei here.
He didnt disguise the heart. No one would have guessed the person wearing the black hat,
mysterious and strong xiuzhe called Su was actually female.
Her glowing wrist reached out and picked up the ling tea in front of her. Gently lifting the corner
of the black guaze, the moist and red lips touched the white and glowing porcelain cup. Gu Rong
Pings eyes instantly turned as hot as fire.

Shimei will even refuse to let me see your visage? Gu Rong Ping gazed at Su, and said
sedately. But the excitement in his tone naturally spilled out.
Shixiongs heart has become disordered, Su said gently, the black gauze not rippling at all, If
the heart is disordered, where is the Heart Lake Sword?
Gu Rong Pings eyes flashed angrily. He didnt continue, and suddenly closed his eyes. A while
later, he opened them, his eyes clear, Shimei is correct. After the Sword Test Conference ends,
where is Shimei planning to go?
Forge a sword.
Oh, Surprise came onto Gu Rong Pings eyes, Shimei found some cold magnets?
Sus peaceful voice finally showed some emotion, En, its already been cut. Four pieces.
Congratulations Shimei! Gu Rong Pings heart was even more fretful. If Shimei went to forge a
sword, she probably wont come out in five years. His heart suddenly moved, If this brother
hasnt remembered it wrong, if the cold magnet is made into a sword, it has to first be made into
a sword billet. But this processing
Ive already found someone, Sus voice returned to its usual faintness, No need for Shixiong
to worry.
At this time, Chao Ans table erupted in laughter again.
Ah, need to prepare for the match soon!
Yes, only Brother Chao can slack off.
A zhuji guy. If Brother Chao uses more than three moves, this one will disdain you.
Why dont we make a wager? Wager on how many moves it will take Brother Chao to finish.
This is good. I bet three moves!
I wager one!
Okay okay. Be generous and stop mocking me, Chao An bowed, I just said it. Look, even if I
win, I wont get any benefits.
The people jeered again.

Gu Rong Ping had just hit a soft nail with Shimei and was angry. Hearing the crow chat, he was
even more furious. A cold light flashed through his eyes. He was young, of extraordinary
cultivation, and famed. He was usually favored in the sect. No one usually dared to be so
outrageous in front of him. His face was instantly dark.
He had just thought of standing up to teach this crowd a lesson when his eyes blurred. At some
unknown time, Shimei had stood up.
What did she want to do?
I bet ten moves, Behind the light gauze, Su said faintly as she faced Chao An and the others.
Her voice was not loud, but easily passed through the light gauze. This light gauze had isolation
formations but they were not effective right now.
The table instantly became silent. Chao Ans face was frighteningly dark.
Who, sir, are you? Please give a name, Chao An smiled insincerely as he raised his hands in a
greeting. Being slapped in front of his friends, could Chao An tolerate it? Because there were
isolation formations on the light gauze, they could only see that there were two people inside.
However, they could not see or hear their appearance or the content of their words.
You do not have to know who I am. Bet, or no bet? Su said, unaffected.
Gu Rong Ping was slightly surprised. Shimei was cold and indifferent. No one could be more
clear about that than he was. She should not be interested in this kind of matter! But she was now
wagering for someone else, this
What relationship did Shimei have with that person? Light rose in Gu Rong Pings eyes, his
expression was slightly interested.
In front of so many people, if he didnt accept this bet, then Chao Ans reputation would really
sweep the floor. Couldnt defeat a zhuji with ten moves? The other was clearly trying to
humiliate him!
Chao An was extremely angry, but his voice was steady as he said, Since Sire has said it, then
this one will accept it. What to bet?
Anything, A faint voice came out of the light gauze pavilion.
Chao An became even more certain the other was mocking him. A cold smile came out of his
face. He took out a jade bottle and opened the stopper. Ling energy and a fragrant medicinal
smell instantly spread in the air.

The people in the surroundings felt their minds jump. Some that understood lingdan became
restless.
Third-grade Intense Fire Dan. There are thirty six of them, Intense Fire Dan was a lingdan that
was a specialty of Fort Chao. The fire it contained was extremely domineering. It was a famous
fire-type lingdan in Sky Moon Jie.
An item flew out of the pavilion. Chao Ans eyes focused and caught it.
Dying Flowing Moon, third-grade.
The people seated couldnt keep still, and stood up, each one stretching their necks to look at the
crystal bottle in Chao Ans hands. The crystal bottle was clear and flawless. The bottle itself was
not cheap. Inside the crystal bottle, there was a fingernail sized ball of faint misty fluid.
Dying Flowing Moon. Supposedly, every ten years, there would be an extremely bright midautumn moon. Dying Flowing Moon was made from the moon light of that night. It was
extremely valuable and rare!
Just this little bottle of Dying Flowing Moon, its value far surpassed Chao Ans Intense Fire Dan.
Chao Ans face was black.
Translator Ramblings: I had the hardest time translating Dying Flowing Moon (the Chinese is
). Theres a lot in this chapter. There is a mysterious person that Wei Sheng confronts. We
get to see Zuo Mos first opponent, Chao An, and one of Zuo Mos former customers, Su. Shes
shown up twice before. Gu Rong Ping likes her~~~

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Twenty


Two Bet
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter One Hundred and Twenty Two Bet
Tao Zu Er, Yan Ming Zi, and Hu Shan were walking on the streets of Dong Fu. They liked being
in busy places, and right now, what place in Sky Moon Jie was more busy than Dong Fu?
Hu Shan rubbed his hands, and said with an excited expression, Excellent. Ive waited for so
long. The stupid preliminary Sword Test Conference finally finished! Only the true competition
is worth seeing!

Tao Zhu Ers eyes were dazed, Yes. Gu Rong Ping is too handsome! I think, in Sky Moon Jie,
there isnt a man more outstanding than him! I really like him!
Hu Shan stared at Tao Zhu Er inside for being a fangirl. He suddenly noticed that Yan Ming Zi
seemed unfocused.
Old Yan, what are you thinking about?
Yan Ming Zi raised his head and focused. He gave a grimace. Im thinking about making
jingshi!
Making jingshi? Youre lacking for jingshi right now? Ive got some right now. Do you want
some? Hu Shan said forthrightly. The three, because they had the same battle experience,
became close friends.
Yan Ming Zi shook his head, Just bought a new flying sword. Ive nearly spent all my jingshi.
No rush, I can slowly make more. Ill find you if I really cant find a way.
Oh, you bought a new flying sword? Quick, let us see, said Tao Zhu Er, as she was instantly
interested in the new sword.
Yan Ming Zi took out a dark blue flying sword, The Swords name is [Deep Ocean], its thirdgrade.
Hu Shan looked and then shook his head. It cant compare to your previous Water Drop sword.
Youre just wasting words! Yan Ming Zi rolled his eyes in exasperation. Hu Shans words
stirred up the threes hurt.
Seeing the situation, Tao Zhu Er quickly changed the topic, So what way did you think of
making jingshi? Of the three, Yan Ming Zi was of average power but the best at business.
As expected, this question was Yan Ming Zis true love. He came the focus of attention, Of
course, it is the Sword Test Conference!
Sword Test Conference? How do you make jingshi from that? Hu Shan asked strangely.
Yan Ming Zi patiently explained, We cant meddle in other business, but if we have spare
money, and make a small bet, it wouldnt be bad.
Hu Shan instantly became disinterested, and said scornfully, You mean gambling, thats not
interesting.

Tao Zhu Er was actually interested. Old Yan, dont pay attention to him. Tell me more.
Yan Ming Zi became even more excited. Gambling naturally is not anything good. But the
Sword Test Conference is different from other gambling.
How so?
There might be luck in this Sword Test Conference, but the true determinant is power. There are
patterns that can be found in this. A persons strength, in a short period of time, wouldnt change
very much. Considering the conflict between different spells, the quality of the talismans, even
though it is impossible to accurately decide the result of the match, but one can determine the
general direction.
Hu Shan laughed, Then how will you know other peoples strength? And their talismans?
Yan Ming Zi nodded, This is the crux of the problem. It is very hard to determine power, but the
non-local competitors have already fought a few times, and general guesses can be made. As to
talismans, he said proudly, in this area, I have some experience.
Thats true. Old Yan, youre always good at picking talismans, said Hu Shan. He admired Yan
Ming Zi very much on this skill.
Hue hue, Yan Ming Zi said smugly, there are many kinds of wagers. Like the first match
thats been spread around so much, Zuo Mo versus Chao An.
Whats there to gamble there? Of course Chao An wins! Hu Shan said unconcernedly, The
Scalping Zombie might be strong, but his cultivation is just that. He definitely cannot win over
ningmai experts!
Exactly! Yan Ming Zi agreed, but his direction changed, But right now, whats spread the
most is this wager. Everyone is betting how many moves that Zuo Mo can take from Chao An.
This bet works? Hu Shan gaped.
Ha, the odds for three moves and under are pretty normal. After three moves, the odds explode,
Yan Ming Zi said.
Did you bet? Hu Shan asked.
Oh, I put down for seven moves, Yan Ming Zi said smugly, the odds are one to sixteen.

You feel he can endure seven of Chao Ans moves? Hu Shans face was full of shock, Chao
An isnt some little character. Hes the strongest disciple of Fort Chao. You have too much
confidence in the Scalping Zombie!
Yan Ming Zi said in a deep voice, How do you think Chao An compares to Chang Heng
Shixiong?
Naturally he cannot compare! Hu Shan didnt need to think before saying unhesitatingly,
Chang Heng Shixiong is very strong! Before, when he was in zhuji, he had defeated people in
ningmai.
Ah! Yan Ming Zi was slightly shocked at the last part, How come I didnt know this?
Hu Shan unconsciously lowered his voice, Not many people know this. Shixiongs Blood Spider
sword was obtained by killing someone! Thats why he was punished by the sect leader.
The other two instantly felt fearful shock.
It seems my jingshi wont be wasted, Yan Ming spoke. The first thing Yan Ming Zi thought
about was his jingshi. He smiled and said, Originally, the betting shouldnt be this popular.
However, Chao An was confronted with a wager. The other wagered a bottle of Dying Flowing
Moon for Zuo Mo to make it through ten moves. That was what stirred everything up.
Dying Flowing Moon , Hu Shans expression was dazed as he muttered, Thats such a
waste
Tao Zhu Er, who hadnt spoke, suddenly asked, Whats the odds for Zuo Mo to win?
Yan Ming Zi jerked. About one to three hundred, He looked in shock at Tao Zhu Er. You want
to bet hell win? Thats not possible!
Why not? Tao Zhu Er said unconcernedly, In any case, Ill just wager a few jingshi. It will be
an amusement. If Chang Heng Shixiong was in zhuji and could be defeated
Her words suddenly stopped, her eyes were focused. The other two people saw she didnt
continue and found it strange. When they saw her frozen expression and dazed eyes, they
couldnt help but follow her gaze. Then the two also froze.
A person was walking towards them.
Li Ying Feng looked at her shidi who was in the yard and shook her head. It hadnt been
anything important when Shidi had been arranged to fight first. She had felt that the sect leader

had wanted Zuo Mo to gain some experience. But the bet about how long Zuo Mo could stay in
the fight had suddenly spread everywhere.
A person of unknown origins had publicly threw out a bottle of Dying Flowing Moon, wagering
that Shidi could make it through ten of Chao Ans moves. It instantly caused a furor. Originally,
no one had been interested in the match. But now, this match had become the most talked out and
attractive match.
Wasnt that putting Shidi onto a fire to roast?
Shidi had shut himself in the yard the past few days, and was working on something she didnt
know. She was extremely worried. Shidi should be practicing the sword some more, honing
himself before the fight, even if it wasnt effective, at least it would look good!
In the time that Shidi had stayed at the store, she had never seen him practice the sword.
Did he think he could win with those useless low grade formations? She naturally was not
opposed to Shidi studying formations, but formations were more likely used in dan-making and
forging. They were not very effective in fighting.
At this time, he shouldnt be working on formations!
Wei Sheng travelled on the Splitting Rainbow as he landed in Dong Fu. He had gone back to Wu
Kong Mountain and reported to the sect leader about the white-clothed male before rushing
towards Dong Fu. Zuo Mo was in the first match. If he came late, he would miss Shidis match.
As he entered Dong Fu, the bustling crowds on the street was a small surprise to Wei Sheng.
Differing from Zuo Mo, Wei Sheng was full of interest towards the Sword Test Conference. A
chance to spar with different kinds of experts, it was really rare. Just thinking about it, he felt his
blood boil, and his desire for battle rise.
He suddenly thought of Zuo Mo and couldnt help but smile. With Shidis lazy personality, he
definitely wouldnt be interested in the Sword Test Conference. When he thought about Shidis
unwillingness to compete, and his helplessness against the sect leaders order, he felt it was
extremely humorous.
Shidi was very talented. It was a pity he was not interested in the sword. If this time, it could
force him, it wouldnt be a bad thing.

Wei Sheng was an exceptionally pure sword xiu. When Zuo Mo had been focusing on ling
farming in the beginning, he hadnt felt anything. But when Zuo Mos talent in cultivating the
sword was revealed, but he was obsessed with other things, Wei Sheng felt it was a great pity.
Suddenly, he heard words from the surroundings.
How many moves did you bet?
Three moves. Zhuji against ningmai. If he could make it through three, it will be the max.
Oh, I dont know what Wu Kong Sword Sect was thinking, sending a little zhuji guy to
embarrass themselves.
Yeah. I heard his main focus is dan-making. He shouldnt be coming here!
A person argued, Its not certain hell embarrass himself. Dying Flowing Moon, who has it? A
person that has Dying Flowing Moon, would they not have good eyes? From what I see, this Zuo
Mo definitely has real skill!
Real skill? Ha! Even if he has skill, hes only in zhuji!

Wei Shengs expression became very ugly. He barely suppressed the impulse to beat up those
people.
Along the way, he heard many similar discussions.
He strode to the doorway of a casino.
Hey, Mister, do you want to try out your luck? Dong Fus hottest betting match, wagering how
many moves, extremely interesting
Wei Sheng prepared to speak when a voice came from behind him.
Take out all the jingshi you have right now.
Robbery? Wei Sheng paused and couldnt help but turn around.
The person speaking was a round faced man. There were two males and one female standing in
front of him. The three of them seemed extremely frightened of the round-faced man, seem to be

very timid in front of him. When the round-face man spoke, the three hurriedly took out all the
jingshi they had.
Wager Zuo Mo wins, The round-faced man said briskly.
Yan Ming Zi couldnt resist, Chang Shixiong, this Zuo Mo
En? The round-faced man glanced at Yan Ming Zi. Yan Ming Zis heart jumped and the words
that reached his mouth shrunk back. Hu Shan and Tao Zhu er were docilely standing with their
heads down at the side. The two of them were cursing Yan Ming Zi inside.
Old Yan, you dumbass. You dont want to live, but dont pull us along
Wei Sheng looked with slight surprise at the round-faced man. This was the first he had heard
that someone was betting Shidi would win. He noticed the clothing of the three people behind the
round-faced man had the symbol of Ling Ying Sect. Didnt Ling Ying Sect have a grudge against
Shidi?
Chang Shixiong Wei Sheng seemed to understand.
The worker that was guarding the door looked at the four like he was looking at idiots. Seeing
the jingshi in Yan Ming Zis hands, he couldnt help but drool. He cursed inside. This group was
really wastrels. If they had that much jingshi, give it to him, dont throw it in the water!
Of course, none of it showed on his face. He praised, Sires eyes are very unique! But he still
hesitated, All on Zuo Mo winning?
Bet, The round-faced man said.
Taking the receipt, the round-faced male turned and left. Yan Ming Zi and the others exchanged a
look and could only dispiritedly follow behind.
Really wastrels! Once the round-faced man left, the worker of the casino seemed to have
opened a flood, continuously talking to Wei Sheng, Just look. Arent those people mental? From
the time the betting started, no one has bet on Zuo Mo winning! They just arent thinking of
jingshi as jingshi. What do you say, a zhuji defeating a ningmai, is there anything as hilarious as
this? Wastrels, really terrible wastrels
He shook his head, saliva flying.
Fifty pieces of third-grade jingshi. Wei Sheng smiled and handed over the jingshi.

Great. How many moves are you betting? Look here, this is the odds for each move
Bet on Zuo Mo winning. Wei Sheng kept on smiling gently.
The worker was dumbstruck.
Translator Ramblings: Guess whats the hottest new thing about town? Just how badly Zuo Mo
would lose!

Three Battle Start
This chapter has been brought to you by me, and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter One Hundred and Twenty Three Battle Start
Chao An was extremely furious.
In this period of time, the wagers on his and Zuo Mos match had become the hottest topic in
Dong Fu. Based on what he saw, this was clearly mocking him. At what time was he ever
mentioned on the same level as a zhuji greenhorn?
What waves could a zhuji xiuzhe make? He didnt believe it.
However, he was not a rash person. That mysterious expert could take out a treasure as Dying
Flowing Moon, then it definitely was not a joke. But when he made a search, he wanted to laugh
and cry.
Zuo Mo actually was a xiuzhe whose main profession was dan-making.
Look at what Chao An had found out in relation to Zuo Mo, ling plant farmer, Golden Crow pill,
processing
Such a zhuji person wanted to make it through ten moves by him, it really was a great joke!
Thinking about it, Chao An unconsciously fisted his hands. If Zuo Mo really did block ten of his
moves, then he would become this years Sword Test Conference, no, the entire Sky Moon Jies
joke! He would become the target of mockery by countless people at a meal. When they
mentioned him, they would never say that he was the most talented disciples of Fort Chao, but
garbage that couldnt even defeated a zhuji greenhorn!
He definitely couldnt let himself become a joke!

Definitely!
Two balls of fire jumped in Chao Ans eyes.

What? Li Ying Feng stared dazedly at the jingshi that Zuo Mo shoved over, You want to bet
on you winning? Are you crazy?
What Zuo Mo handed over was three hundred pieces of third-grade jingshi.
Haha! Shidi has great daring! A forthright laugh suddenly passed into the store from outside.
Wei Sheng strode in and scanned Zuo Mo. He smiled and said, It seems that Shidi is full of
confidence for the fight! Im not worried any more. I put all my money on you winning. If you
lose, I wont get anything back! Haha!
Li Ying Feng looked at Zuo Mo and Eldest Shixiong like she was looking at insane people.
Were they crazy
Zuo Mo heard Shixiongs words and his heart warmed. Everyone thought that he would lose,
only Shixiong believed he would win! He suppressed the movement in his heart and smiled,
Ive done a lot of work and will give Chao An a surprise.
The eyes on that zombie face flashed with a strange light.
Haha! Shidi will always give people surprises. Im looking forward to it! Wei Sheng roared
with laughter.
They were really crazy
Li Ying Feng shook her head as she walked out the door. Shell bet it. In any case, it wasnt her
jingshi.
The Dong Fu Sword Test Conference finally was going to start. Originally, no one had been
interested in the first match, but the wagering had gotten so popular that the number of people
that came to watch was astounding. This match were the strength was so unbalanced, the amount
of jingshi that was connected to it reached a terrifying number. This had furthered everyones
interest in the match.
Anyone that heard about the wagering on how many moves it would take couldnt help but be
curious how many moves Zuo Mo could go through.

How many moves?


Which one would it be?
The Sword Test Conference was called the Dong Fu Sword Test Conference. No one had thought
that this competition would attract of more than half of the young experts of Sky Moon Jie. It
could almost be called the Sky Moon Jie Sword Test Conference. There were some doubts about
the sword test conference, and especially about the strength of the local xiuzhe. The non-local
xiuzhe had used spectacular performances to prove their strength. But Dong Fus xiuzhe had not
fought up until now. This was also why, in all the rankings, the Dong Fu xiuzhe didnt rank high.
There was a quota of local xiuzhe who did not need to pass through the preliminary Sword Test
Conference. Consequently, the zhuji xiuzhe that appeared in the true competition was a farce in
the eyes of many people.
As a result, from the start of the competition, the arguments about the Sword Test Conference
had not stopped. The unfairness between the local and non-local xiuzhe etc etc
But the host Tian Song Zi had used a very short sentence to shut everyone up, This Sword Test
Conference is Dong Fu Sword Test Conference. The implicit meaning was that this was us
holding a competition for ourselves. Its generous of us to let you attend.
Non-local xiuzhe had nothing to say, but their rage hadnt disappeared. Zuo Mo was the only
zhuji xiuzhe in this Sword Test Conference and became infamous.
Many people wanted to see him get embarrassed. The wagering on how many moves it would
take was primarily due to the machinations of those people.
Theres a lot of people. Zuo Mo looked at the dense crowds in the surroundings and asked
heartlessly, Shijie, did you bet the jingshi?
Li Ying Feng wanted to turn and leave. Look what time it was, Shidi was still thinking about
jingshi
She manage to suppress the impulse to explode and said irritably, I bet it! According to your
request, I spread it out.
Oh, then Im not worried. Hee hee! Zuo Mo gave an extremely perverse laugh with an
expressionless face. It was extremely strange to see.
Heavens! Why did she come out with this weirdo? It was really embarrassing!

She was extremely regretful. Why hadnt she just turned and left earlier?
Brother Chao, really, your opponent is someone like that? One of Chao Ans people said in an
exaggerated voice.
Chao Ans expression was extremely angry, his hands cracking as they became fists.
The sect leaders and elders of the various large sects were sitting on a Lucky Cloud far away. Wu
Kong Sword Sects Pei Yuan Ran was also one of them. The Lucky Cloud was extremely large,
multiple mu in area. On it, chairs and tables were provided as well as ling fruits and tea. The
disciples of each sect were standing heads down at the side.
Your sects Zuo Mo is very interesting! As expected, truly a money-grubber. Are all your
disciples like this? Ling Yin Sects sect leader roared with laughter.
Their cultivations were all astonishing and they could easily catch what was happening below.
Zuo Mo and Li Ying Fengs conversation had entered their ears.
Shi Feng Rongs eyelid flickered, anger barely hidden. Pei Yuan Rans expression was as usual.
Zuo Mos personality is straightforward and whimsical, extremely interesting. Money-grubber?
Our sect, including me, the sect leader, are all money-grubbers. Your sect is very wealthy and do
not know the troubles of us poor people. Ha ha!
Thats right, this one had heard something before. Do not talk about jingshi in front of Ling
Ying Sect. Someone couldnt help but say sourly, To us poor people, scrimping and saving is
very normal.
Ling Ying Sect was so rich it came out of their pores. Many people were jealous. Adding in that
they were usually proud and domineering, they didnt have many friendly relationships. Pei Yuan
Rans light words threw Ling Ying Sect on the opposite side of everyone else.
The sect leader of Ling Ying Sect was not stupid. Seeing the unfriendly gazes of the people
around him, he understood.
His expression did not change. He smiled, saying, Each family has their own problems. The
wagering has been pretty hot recently, how many moves it would take. Sect Leader Pei should be
most familiar with your sects disciples. How many moves does Sect Leader Pei think Zuo Mo
could go through? I had bet three! He then twisted his mouth and said, Could Sect Leader Pei
give some insider information? Three moves shouldnt be a problem, right?
Shi Feng Rongs eyelids and eyebrows simultaneously went up. She was about to act when Xin
Yan put out a hand to stop her.

Hearing this, Pei Yuan Ran pretended to be shocked and said, Insider information? You dont
know? If I remember correctly, the last time Zuo Mo went to visit your sect, he had sparred with
five of your disciples. Did your disciples not report that to you?
Oh, something like that had happened? At the side, Tian Song Zi heard this, and couldnt help
but be interested, What was the result?
Pei Yuan Ran said regretfully, Lost to Chang Heng.
Ling Ying Sects leaders face was horrifically black. He had wanted to take the chance to mock
Pei Yuan Ran and the others. He hadnt thought that Pei Yuan Ran would push a fire onto him.
No matter the time, there were always people willing to add insult to injury.
The leader of Chi Sword Sect said, deliberately pretending to be ignorant, So that means four
wins and one loss? Oh, Chang Heng had already broken through to ningmai, how can he fight
with a zhuji?
Hearing you guys say this, Im full of interest in Zuo Mo now. Another sect leader opened.
It was luck, just luck! Pei Yuan Ran deflected.
The leader of Ling Ying Sect was regretful now. But he could not explain that Chang Heng
hadnt broken through to ningmai at that time. Such a inglourious matter, the more that was said,
the more embarrassing it was. He could only swallow the bitterness.
Zuo Mo walked onto the battlefield. Chao An was waiting for him.
Chao An saw Zuo Mo sedately swing as he walked onto the field and his expression became
even uglier. The longer this guy stood in front of him, the more he would be laughed at. He
wanted the elder responsible for judging the match to announce the start of the fight, and he
would hammer this damned guy into paste!
Since it was the first match, to show its importance, the judge responsible for the fight was a
jindan.
His eyes coldly glanced across the two. In his eyes, there was no difference between ningmai and
zhuji. The warning glance moved past the two people who couldnt help but shudder. The anger
in Chao Ans eyes disappeared, and Zuo Mos swaying body stopped.
You can use any move other than ling beasts. If someone admits loss, you cannot attack. If
someone is unconscious, it is instantly judged a loss, the other cannot continue to attack

Chao An told himself. Be calm, I need to be calm.


But he kept on feeling the dense crowds of spectators were all looking at him with ridicule in
their eyes like they were looking at a clown. Facing the judge, he didnt dare to make any moves.
He lowered his head, suppressing the anger that had accumulated in his chest.
The judge finally finished announcing the rules, both of his hands making a cut down, Battle
start!
Chao An raised his head, his eyes filled with a stormy fury. He was like an infuriated lion,
terrifying!
The Intense Fire Hammer in his hand turned with a boom into a ball of fire the size of a house
and floated beside his body. The deep red flames spit and spat on the outside of the ball of fire.
The heat that the fireball released could be clearly felt by spectators one hundred zhang away.
Chao An seemed minuscule compared to the fireball beside him.
The light of the flickering fire reflected on Chao Ans face. His face was full of murderous
intent!
Taking the chance, Zuo Mos hand flipped and threw out a jade disk.
Those with keen eyes instantly recognized it as a formation disk!
Once the formation disk was thrown out, it turned to several streams of light and disappeared
into the air.
Many of the spectators either gave a disdainful expression or a disappointed one.
Just a second-grade Path Confusion Formation. What effect could it have on a ningmai xiuzhe?
Feeling the anger boiling in his chest, seeing the others poor performance, Chao An looked on
with ridicule and disdain and deep anger!
Just this kind of person, he could make it through ten of his moves?
Translator Ramblings: Luckily for all you readers, you didnt have to wait long for the battle to
start. Dong Fu politics Shi Feng Rong probably has the shortest temper if it is about her
disciples.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Twenty


Four Multiple Shadows and Intense Fire
This chapter has been brought to you by me, and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter One Hundred and Twenty Four Multiple Shadows and Intense Fire
A second-grade Path Confusion formation posed no risk to Chao An who was in the stage of
ningmai.
Poof.
Like a bubble bursting, the light sound didnt cause a ripple. The light surrounding Chao An
changed slightly. The Path Confusion Formation couldnt even endure the presence of the fireball
beside Chao An and was instantly torn to bits.
However, in that period of time, in front of Chao An, Zuo Mo had turned from one to five.
Multiple Ghost Shadows Seal!
Watching from the side, Yan Ming Zi and the others gaped and turned to look at each other.
Isnt this Wang Shixiongs medicine-seal-style?
Such a wretched opening move!
The core of the medicine-seal-style!
Standing beside the three people was Wang Shixiong. At this time, he was gaping with wide eyes,
not knowing what to say. Last time, Zuo Mo had defeated him. Adding in the fact the wagering
had been extra hot in Dong Fu, he had great interest about the scalping Zombies match, and had
especially came to watch. Not just him, nearly all the disciples of Ling Ying Sect had come out,
wanting to personally see the sorry outcome of the Scalping Zombie.
It had always been Ling Ying Sect running to other sects and bullying other people. To be
harassed at their own doors, and losing, Zuo Mo was the first one.
It was an embarrassment, embarrassment!

The Ling Ying Sect disciple gritted their teeth, wanting to go up, skin and strip the damned
zombie, especially when they saw Zuo Mo was using Wang Shixiongs medicine-seal-style.
Instantly, the new hate and the old grudges merged.
The spectators all shook their heads. Multiple Ghost Shadows Seal was very useful in the battles
between low level xiuzhe, but facing a person higher than the user like Chao An, this move was
not effective.
Four illusions, one real person. The illusions had to be controlled by the real person. This was
why the Multiple Ghost Shadows Seal was not used in higher level battles. Controlling the
illusions meant that one had to split their attention and the difficulty of manipulation would
increase. Those illusions were only useful for confusion others but did not do anything else.
On the field, five Zuo Mo spread out.
Whoa! A light suddenly rose in the eyes of Wang Shixiong.
He was the creator of medicine-seal-style, and the Multiple Ghost Shadows Seal was his
trademark opening move. He was way too familiar with this move! But with his eyes, he actually
could not detect which of the five Zuo Mo was the real one!
The movements of the five Zuo Mos were extremely synchronized. They continuously took out
formation disks from the hundred treasures pouch at the waist and then furiously threw them into
the field.
In a second, the formation disks flew like rain into the field.
How was it possible
In a second, his expression froze. His mouth slowly dropped further but he didnt realize it.
He couldnt tell still couldnt tell
Each Zuo Mo moved just the same as the real one. There was no stiffness, no place that they
seemed fake. The other disciples might not understand the difference, but Wang Shixiong, who
was so familiar with the Multiple Ghost Shadows Seal, how could he not understand the
difficulty involved?
The illusions created by the Multiple Ghost Shadows Seal would not move on their own. If they
had to move, it must be controlled by the mind. With his skill, he could just control one illusion,
and he had to leave the other three alone. The one illusion that he could control would definitely
not be as realistic and detailed as what was happening now.

Controlling four illusions at the same time, and could fight with such ease, how terrifying must
his consciousness be?
Unknowingly, sweat started to flow down his back and silently dripped down. He suddenly had a
strong feeling this fight wouldnt peacefully and easily finish.
In Sky Moon Jie that was dominated by sword xiu, aids like the Multiple Ghost Shadows Seal
were things that people ridiculed. But Wang Shixiong who had a deep knowledge of the Multiple
Ghost Shadows Seal was very clear, if the user could accurately control every illusion, the
useless Multiple Ghost Shadows Seal would become full of danger.
No, it was actually terrifyingly dangerous!
When it was impossible to distinguish the illusions using the naked eye, one had to use their
consciousness to detect it. However, would the consciousness of a person who could control four
illusions be weak?
If one could not tell the true from the illusions and their spirit was not strong enough, then there
was only one way
This fight had attracted countless pairs of eyes, experts gathering around. They may not be as
familiar with the Multiple Ghost Shadows seal as Wang Shixoing but their understanding of
battle helped them see some clues. The underestimation on many peoples faces were swept
away. They started to think, if they were facing an opponent who had five bodies, real and
illusory, how could they deal with it?
On the Lucky Cloud, Tian Song Zi saw Zuo Mos move and couldnt help but praise, Your
sects Zuo Mo is really a good one. I heard Yu Bai say that he had comprehended sword essence
when he was in lianqi. I hadnt quite believed it, but seeing him now, he really is exceptionally
talented!
Comprehended sword essence in lianqi? Once the words were spoken, the sect leaders on the
Lucky Cloud all had shocked expressions!
The heavens really loved Wu Kong Sword Sect too much! Having a genius that had an apparition
when he entered zhuji, and hiding a genius that comprehended sword essence when he was in
lianqi! Other than sighing, they couldnt help but feel admiration and envy. Each of them had
their own thoughts. The face of the Ling Ying Sect leader was extremely poor.
Comprehended sword essence in lianqi? Shi Feng Rong, Xin Yan and the others stared at each
other, their eyes filled with shock and surprise. They found that they hadnt had a clue at all.

Great, see how Ill sort you out when we get back! The light jumped in Shi Feng Rongs eyes
and she burned with anger.
Chao An could not distinguish the real Zuo Mo from the fake illusions.
In the scriptures that he had practiced in Fort Chao, the spirit was the area that was the least
important.
Looking at the five Zuo Mo thrown formation disks into the field, he felt joy instead of anger.
The more Zuo Mo showed he was strong, after he won, the better he would look.
In reality, the strength that Zuo Mo was displaying now could be considered the top of zhuji
xiuzhe.
But, what you are facing is a ningmai xiuzhe. The distance between you and I is much bigger
than you have imagined!
Chao An gave a dark smile.
It was true. He could not find which Zuo Mo was the real one. But, did he need to know which
one was real?
All the anger and humiliation that had accumulated in his heart was like molten lava flowing
inside his body, burning his body, pain covering his entire body! His body became a strange red
color as though he was made from boiling red metal. The specialty of Fort Chao, [Fiery
Scripture], had reached its maximum.
He wanted to use a method that no one could have any doubts about to win this battle. He wanted
everyone to shut their mouths!
His legs spread out slightly. Lowering his head, the gigantic fireball that was burning as it floated
beside him suddenly bounced towards the sky.
The spectators couldnt help but raise their heads, their eyes tightly fixed on the soaring fireball.
They all knew what was coming was Chao Aos full frontal attack!
Seriousness came onto Wei Shengs face. He could feel the astounding power contained in that
fireball. At his side, Xiao Guo and Li Ying Feng paled. Before, they had thought about the gap in
power between the two people, but the confidence that Zuo Mo had displayed had made them
feel that the gap was not as big as they thought. But now, they found that the gap was even
bigger than they had imagined.

In the sky far away, two people silently floated in the air and watched the fight.
Shimei is that confident in Zuo Mo? Gu Rong Ping looked at the match and said slowly, Fort
Chaos Fiery Hammer, strong on the offensive and weak on the defence but the power isnt bad.
If he gets to complete it, even I would have some trouble.
Su was floating beside him and said faintly, Well know when they finish.
Gu Rong Ping gave a light chuckle, It seems that Shimei has a lot of confidence in him. Oh,
then I can have high expectations.
Su didnt respond.
Yan Ming Zi and the others were very nervous right now. Hu Shan directly asked Wang
Shixiong, Shixiong, whats the situation?
Before he finished, Chao An shouted. Boom. His fisted hands suddenly crashed together in front
of his chest.
As his fists hit each other, the fireball in the sky suddenly exploded, turning into countless fistsized fireballs, howling as they started falling down!
The Fire Rain Hammer of [Fiery Hammer]!
Swoosh swoosh swoosh!
From nothingness, from low to high, the howls swept the field like a flood. Even the ground was
trembling slightly. The xiuzhe that had been looking at Chao An like they were looking like a
jade suddenly changed expressions!
The light in Wei Shengs eyes grew as he stared at the field, the tendons in his hand protruding
uncontrollably.
The sect leaders on the Lucky Cloud didnt have the attention to talk now, their eyes locked on
the field. Shi Feng Rongs expression changed slightly. Zuo Mo should not meet this move head
on! A hint of remorse flashed through Pei Yuan Rans eyes. His original intention had been for
Zuo Mo to have some experience. He hadnt thought that Zuo Mo would land in such a
dangerous situation. They had only thought that Zuo Mo had comprehended sword essence when
he had been in zhuji so they hadnt opposed him when Zuo Mo went to practice things like ling
farming and dan-making.
If they had known that this guy had comprehended sword essence when he was in lianqi

If such a good sprout like this one was ruined on his hands, how could he face the ancestral
masters? Pei Yuan Rans expression couldnt help but change slightly. The faces of the others
were also abnormally ugly. A cold light flashed through Xin Yans eyes. His right hand hidden in
his sleeve, at some unknown time, was gripping a little sword.
Only the sect leader of Ling Ying Sect had a joyful expression.
Just as everyone was intimidated by Chao Ans Fire Rain Hammer, and lost their ability to
talk, Wang Shixiong suddenly raised his head, the light in his eyes shining, as he couldnt stop
himself from shouting, Thats not right
Yan Ming Zi and the others were startled awake by Wang Shixiongs shout but didnt have the
attention to spare to ask. Their eyes couldnt bear to move aside.
At some unknown time, a patch of faint golden mist had rose. Those lights that were like golden
sand, under the explosive rain of fire that was like a volcanic explosion, was so weak and
inconspicuous.
Gold Surge Formation!
The mist that was like golden sand was all pure golden energy. Gold Surge Formation was a
commonly seen gold element formation. It could nurture the vigorous gold energy. These
vigorous gold energies didnt have much power. Most of the time, it was activated before casting
a gold element spell. It could increase the power of a gold element spell.
Did he want to use a gold element spell? The spectators couldnt help but shake their heads. The
attributes of gold were vigor, strength and breakage. Along with fire, it could deal the greatest
damage out of the five elements. But of the gold element spells that a zhuji could use, they really
couldnt think of one that could stop Chao Ans Fire Rain Hammer.
Some perceptive xiuzhe that were also knowledgeable in formations found an abnormality. Was
this Gold Surge Formation second or third-grade? Such a big patch of golden mist, it didnt seem
like something a second-grade Gold Surge Formation could form. But if it was a third-grade
Gold Surge Formation, it could not form in such a short amount of time.
Seeing the fire hammer in the sky about to land, this patch of golden mist changed again.
At this time, no one was concerned with the change in the gold mist. Everyone was closely
watching the five Zuo Mo on the field. They wanted to see how Zuo Mo would respond!

Thats not correct Wang Shixiongs expression was frozen as he stared at the field,
unconsciously muttering. Without noticing, his face was full of sweat and his eyes were full of
deep disbelief!
Translator Ramblings: The sect elders find out Zuo Mo concealed something! I dont want to
spoil anything so no commentary on anything else in this chapter until the fight is over.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Twenty


Five Final Kill
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and cactuar0.
Chapter One Hundred and Twenty Five Final Kill
One, two, three, four
How many formation disks had Zuo Mo thrown out?
Everyone only saw the sky filled with formation disks like rain. Only Wang Shixiong had been
silently counting inside. The five Zuo Mo had been furiously throwing formation disks at an
astounding rate but an illusion was just an illusion. The illusions created with a Multiple Ghost
Shadows Seal below fifth-grade were intangible. They were just a ball of light.
Therefore, only the formation disks thrown out by the real person were real formation disks.
Wang Shixiong, face full of sweat, was full of admiration towards Zuo Mo to the point of
kneeling. It was rare that the illusions were so realistic, but to have illusions that could throw out
formation disks, the persons consciousness was terrifying!
Wang Shixiong could not count how many formation disks had been truly thrown out. The rate at
which each Zuo Mo had been throwing formation disks was different. He couldnt tell which one
was the real one. But he knew that Zuo Mo had at least thrown out seven formation disks!
The fight had reached its climax, and Wang Shixiong felt that hiding under that expressionless
zombie face was an extremely terrifying cunning!
The spherical ball of fire that was howling as it came down quickly changed.
Hammer Metamorphosis!

This was an extremely important transformation of the fiery hammer. Almost every move needed
to undergo hammer metamorphosis After the fire turned into a hammer, the power would
greatly increase. In normal moves, the time it took to complete the change was extremely short
and hard to detect. It was only for powerful moves like Fire Rain Hammer that the
metamorphosis of the hammer was clear enough for people to detect.
When the howling fireball all turned into the fire hammer, the entire battleground would be
flattened!
At this moment a change suddenly occurred!
Three blue chains suddenly leapt around the red Chao Ans feet, like three blue snakes that had
been waiting for a long time, and tangled around Chao An.
Unable to defend, Chao An was tightly tied.
Third-grade [Dragon Tying Formation]!
Shocked shouts instantly sounded in the crowd. This change had been too sudden without a hint
of warning!
However, many people were still shaking their head. Was this what Zuo Mo had been doing?
The [Dragon Tying Formation] had been one of the finer formations that Zuo Mo had purchased.
Not many people recognized it. But in the eyes of these ningmai, they could roughly detect the
power of this [Dragon Tying Formation]. From what they saw, the power of the [Dragon Tying
Formation] was good, but it was impossible to tie down Chao An with this. It would only take
Chao An a few breaths to break free!
Crack crack, Wang Shixiong couldnt help but fist his hands. A blush came onto his sweaty face.
Only he guessed that Zuo Mos counterattack was starting!
Chao An was enraged!
Under the eyes of everyone, he had actually been tied down by a zhuji xiuzhe!
His head rang. The fire inside his chest could not be suppressed. His hair stood on end, his eyes
widening angrily, his expression extremely twisted!
Go die!

All the ling power in his body furiously headed for the three blue chains on his body. A bright red
fire appeared on his body, and he truly became a fire person!
The deep red fire fiercely burned the blue chains on his body. The blue chains, at a speed visible
to the naked eye, dramatically shrunk.
The spectators couldnt help but sigh. The difference in power was too great! For zhuji
cultivators, the power of the [Dragon Tying Formation] was very strong, but it was not enough
for a ningmai. It might have tied Chao An down for a while, but Zuo Mo lacked a move that
could finish him off! He basically could not do anything to Chao An. Zuo Mo couldnt even near
the flame that was on Chao Ans body.
Only Wang Shixiong believed this was the horn of counterattack. There definitely was a change
hidden in here!
But where was that change?
He suddenly found that in that great patch of golden sand, at some unknown time, there was the
addition of countless water energies! A ball of faint water mist, carrying countless sparkling
golden lights. It was extremely beautiful.
Such thick water energy!
Such an evident change obviously could not be missed by the spectators. Those that were
familiar with formations instantly recognized it as the [Water Gathering Formation]. But the
water energy that had been gathered far surpassed a second-grade water gathering formation!
Those xiuzhe that had deeper knowledge of formations instantly reacted!
Gold births water! His Gold Surge Formation is aiding the Water Gathering Formation! Its a
chain formation!
No! There must have been an earth formation before. Earth aids the gold formation! Its a three
chain formation!
Heavens! Three chain formation!
Three chain formation! He knows how to do a three chain formation!

Gasps of shock instantly sounded among the crowd. This was the first time, up until now, that
some many people gasped with shock at Zuo Mo!
Wang Shixiong silently fisted his hands even more. He didnt feel happy that his guess had been
right at this moment. His eyes were full of panic.
Faster faster
The howling fireball rain had just reached Zuo Mos head. No matter how much assistance and
traps he had put down before, he could not dodge this move!
A pity for the three chain
Someone said that, and the surroundings instantly became silent.
With Zuo Mos cultivation, no matter what, they could not stop this Fire Rain Hammer!
Suddenly, all five Zuo Mo stopped and simultaneously looked at the sky.
Zuo Mos vision instantly darkened. The fireball descended from the sky, carrying an
intimidating presence, unable to be dodged.
Li Ying Feng and Xiao Guos faces were bloodless. When the fireball flew closer, that terrifying
presence made one unable to find the courage to face it.
Shixiong
Xiao Guos body uncontrollably trembled.
Hm! Wei Shengs eyes suddenly lit up.
Eh! Chang Heng suddenly straightened his body.
Oh! Gu Rong Ping was slightly surprised, Little bit interesting.

A light flashed through Zuo Mos eyes. His eyes were tightly fixed on the nearing fire rain
covering the sky.
The fireball grew larger in front of his eyes with astounding speed. He didnt move at all. He
stood with his face looking at the sky, not moving a sliver.

The fireball had a long tail, just like a meteor!


But they were still shaped spherically.
It hadnt turned into a hammer!
Golden light suddenly rose inside the field. A gigantic formation suddenly appeared. Zuo Mo
was at the center of the formation. At the same time, the jade pendant at his waist suddenly lit up.
Two formations, big and small, but completely the same, appeared in front of everyones eyes.
Double chain Streaming Fire Core Manipulation!
The hands of the five Zuo Mo in the field suddenly moved simultaneously.
Zuo Mo was under great pressure at the center of the formation. He could feel all the power and
changes that were happening in the formation. He had never felt it was so easy before. It was like
his hands were greased. He didnt need to especially control it and those incomparably complex
finger motions streamed out of his hands!
Opposite the flow of his finger movements, his body clearly was struggling like he was weighed
down with something heavy, slightly trembling!
Poof poof poof poof!
The four illusions disappeared. At this time, Zuo Mo had no more concentration to control those
four illusions.
He was enduring pressure that he had never endured before. From far away, one could clearly see
the tendons in Zuo Mos forehead bulging like earthworms.
Control fire!
He was using the most normal method to control fire!
Taking advantage of Chao An being tied up and having weakened his control of the Fire Rain
Hammer, before the fireballs could turn to a hammer, taking advantage of the double chained
Streaming Fire Core Manipulation Formation to increase his control over fire, to resolve this
move!
Such a smart child! Tian Song Zi praised from the lucky cloud.

The faces of the other sect leaders were full of jealousy. At this time, Pei Yuan Ran and the others
did not have time to be smug. They were nervously looking at the battle.
All of the spectators were dumbstruck!
No one had thought Zuo Mo would use such an incredible method to resolve a move that others
thought was far out of his limits.
It was just the most common fire
Zuo Mo locked his jaw and told himself repeatedly. His consciousness was reaching into every
corner, crawling around the fireballs above his head. The finger motions changed according to
the feelings passed on through his consciousness.

Even though he had the Streaming Fire Core Manipulation Formation to help him, even though
Chao Ans control over the rain of fire was weakened, even though it had not metamorphosed
into the hammer, but it still was not something that Zuo Mo could control.
However, Zuo Mo didnt want to control it at all
Open! Zuo Mo bellowed. His voice seemed to have come out of his chest, suffocated yet deep.
The rain of fire above his head suddenly moved towards two sides, revealing a slim crack! The
sunlight streamed down through the crack. On the shaded ground, a path of light suddenly
appeared.
A ruler-straight path of light.
At this end of the path was Zuo Mo. At the other end, it was Chao an. And in the middle was that
dense water energy that carried dots of gold light.
Suddenly, for some unknown reason, when this path of light appeared, everyone that was
watching had one thought, the final move! All the set up, all the traps, they followed and
intercrossed and were so surprising. After such careful setup for the move, how could it not be
the final kill?
Zuo Mos finger movements changed. That ball of water energy in the middle suddenly started to
pour with rain.

[Little Art of Cloud and Rain]!


Little Art of Cloud and Rain
The people that had been waiting for an ultimate attack were dazed. Though many people hadnt
recognized the finger motions and formations that had came up previously, there was no one who
did not recognize the [Little Art of Cloud and Rain] that Zuo Mo had just cast. No one noticed
that Zuo Mo had cast [Little Art of Cloud and Rain] in such a short amount of time. Everyones
first response was, why was it Little Art of Cloud and Rain?
Just as everyone was shocked, the Water Drop sword appeared in Zuo Mos hands.
All the noise of the surroundings completely disappeared. In Zuo Mos eyes, there was only that
ball of Cloud and Rain. Under his feet was the Five Primary Ling Replenishing Formation. It had
just barely managed to top up the ling power in his body.
Charge!
In his heart, Zuo Mo shouted to himself.
The Water Drop sword was tilted downward at his waist. Trotting in little steps, as the Wind
Travel boots lit up, as he brushed past the fire rain beside him, he slowly sped up. All the ling
power in his body were flooding towards the Water Drop sword.
Chao An was very angry, more angry than he had ever been before.
Originally, he had hoped to use a grand and explosive move to end this farce, and to prove his
power!
But everything was ruined!
Now, even if he won, this damned zombies performance was enough for people to talk about.
The center of the conversation would be this zombie, and him
The flames on his body became even hotter. The blue chains that had been struggling finally
could not endure it anymore and turned to dust.
He raised his bright red eyes. There was one voice inside his heart.
Die!
In front of him, the cloud that was raining seemed to be changing.

Immediately after, a figure rushed through the mist. The moment he came out, the white mist
turned back to gold. All the water energy had disappeared.
When he saw the person that rushed out was Zuo Mo, Chao An had a fierce smile. But when his
eyes landed on Zuo Mos waist, his eyes suddenly widened.
The Water Drop sword that Zuo Mo was holding on his side had turned into a water sword, a
gigantic water sword that was one zhang long like a flame!
When he had passed by the cloud, all of the water energy had been absorbed onto the sword.
In the midst of the fire rain, a transparent sword of water. That was Zuo Mos final and ultimate
kill.
[Li Water Burning Heavens]!
Translator Ramblings: There was someone who mentioned using [Little Art of Cloud and Rain]
in battle, so here it is! Formations, five element ling farming spells, and Zuo Mos sword! Is this
worth the cliffhanger?

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Twenty Six


Cross-Examination

Chapter One Hundred and Twenty Six Cross-Examination
Boom boom boom!
The sound of explosions rang out. The battlefield turned into a sea of fire.
The deep red flames were several zhang high as they spat and danced. The two people that were
enveloped in the fire could not be seen.
Suddenly, in the middle of the sea of fire, several snowflakes floated out.
A blurry figure appeared out of the sea of fire. He walked step by step out. The blurry figure
became more solid.
Who was it?

Everyone couldnt help but stretch their necks, and stop breathing. Even the dumbest person
knew the one walking out was the winner of the battle.
The rain of fire that had landed at the end had blocked everyones vision. The image that had
been burned in their eyes had been that gigantic flame-like sword made out of water, moving
from bottom to top, slicing towards Chao An!
Did he hit it? What was the result?
It seemed to be time for everything to be revealed.
The black figure coming out of the sea of fire was even more solid. He finally reached the border
of the sea of fire. He didnt stop and stepped forward.
A dark golden bare footed figure, slightly burnt black, stepped out of the sea of fire.

The sky was clear and the warm sunlight reached the ground. The weather of Sky Moon Jie was
pleasant. Even though the rain was plentiful, but sunny days were the majority in the year. Dong
Fu, located on the mountain was abnormally busy. The xiuzhe were coming and going, on swords
or flying, or riding ling beasts, or controlling talismans as they gathered here from all around.
At Wu Kong Mountain not far away from Dong Fu.
Completely bare, Zuo Mo was soaking in the medicinal tub, only his head let out. He
occasionally would hiss and inhale. Even though he had won this time, but he had been seriously
injured. When he had walked out of the sea of fire, he had fainted. When he opened his eyes, he
found that he was soaking in the medicinal liquid. Beside the tub, a sound tablet was placed. The
light flowed on the jade disk of the sound tablet. This was something Zuo Mo had begged Xiao
Guo to find for him.
He was quickly pulled to the content of the sound tablet broadcast.
Even though the matches of the past two days were extremely good, but it had to be said that
they cannot compare to the first match! It really makes me unable to have interest. Master Xu,
what do you think?
True. I feel the same. The spells of the past two days were varied, but there was nothing as
astounding as Zuo Mos display in the first match. However, after analyzing it, there are many
reasons why everyone has such a deep impression of Zuo Mo and Chao Ans fight.

Exactly. A classic fight naturally needs some reasons it could be called classic. Like the gigantic
difference in the twos power, and the unique use of formation disks and formations by Zuo Mo
etcetera, they are all reasons this fight will be classic. In this fight, Zuo Mos accomplishments
with formations and formation disks is the topic that everyone has discussed the most. The
professions see the technique, the amateurs the spectacle. I dont know anything about
formations at all. Master Xu, you are an expert in this field and definitely saw more than I did.
Come, explain it to me.
Im really not that skilled. In reality, I was present at the fight and it gave me a great shock. It
might be because Im very interested in formations. I was greatly stimulated by how Zuo Mo
used formations and formation disks. Many people are asking the same question, how many
formation disks did Zuo Mo really throw out?
Yes! Ive been wanting to ask this question.
If I hadnt seen it wrong, it should be eleven formation disks!
That many?
The first one he threw out was the Path Confusion formation disk. After that, the formation
disks he threw out included the Earth Ling Formation, the Gold Surge Formation, the Water
Gathering Formation. Those three formed a three chain formation. Everyone should still
remember the three blue chains that tied up Chao An. I checked afterwards. It is the Dragon
Tying Formation. Not a bad formation. The gold formation that appeared last was the Streaming
Fire Core Manipulation Formation. It formed a double chain with the Streaming Fire Core
Manipulation formation on Zuo Mos jade pendant at his waist.
That was just six formation disks!
Haha, those six disks had been meticulously planned. But where Zuo Mo was smart was not just
that. He had five formation disks with Five Primary Ling Replenishing Formations!
Five Five Primary Ling Replenishing Formations!
Right. Zuo Mo only has zhuji cultivation in the end. His ling power is not as deep as Chao An
by far so he needed to replenish ling power. What everyone should admire is that he had thrown
the five formation disks into very specific places. Basically, any place that he could step into, is
within the area of the five primary ling replenishing formation
Inside the medicinal tub, Zuo Mo was full of admiration. He didnt know who this Master Xu
was, but all his arrangements had been clearly seen by this person. He couldnt help but be a
little smug. To hear someone praise him from the sound tablet, that feeling, it wasnt just good!

The pain from the medicinal fluid burrowing into his body seemed to lessen. When he thought of
the jingshi that he had made this time, his soul was flying
You are very smug! Shi Feng Rong said icily, face cold
Inside the tub, Zuo Mo shrunk his head. He had almost forgotten that he was being crossexamined right now. The sect leader, Xin Yan Shibo, Yan Le Shibo, and Master, were standing in
a row in front of his medicinal tub and were staring at him.
This disciple doesnt dare! he said carefully.
Doesnt dare? What dont you dare do? Shi Feng Rongs voice suddenly rose as she demanded,
Say, what dont you dare do?
Zuo Mo saw the situation was bad. Master was truly angry but he didnt know where he had
done something wrong so he could only make noises.
Seeing Zuo Mo making noise, the fire in Shi Feng Rongs heart rose, Look how docile you
appear. You are the slipperiest and ruffian-like person in all the disciples! If I dont sort you out,
as your Master, Ill get lead around in circles by you
Zuo Mo didnt understand anything at all. Inside, he was even more certain he had done
something wrong. But there were too many things that he had done that was not allowed. His
master was pointing at his nose and scolding, but he didnt know which one it was.
To have provoked the stoic Master into scolding like this, what he had done was probably major!
Li Ying Feng and Xiao Guo didnt dare to breathe from the side. However, by the end, they were
suppressing their laughter.
Cough. Only when Shi Feng Rong had pretty much vented did Pei Yuan Ran stand out.
Xiao Mo, you had comprehended sword essence in lianqi, but why didnt you tell us? The sect
leaders voice was gentle and friendly, extremely warm, but soaking in the boiling medicinal
fluid, Zuo Mo couldnt help but shudder.
Truthfully, Zuo Mo wasnt that afraid of Master. Master had a cold face but a warm heart. Even
though she had been sternly scolding him, but she was truly concerned for him. Out of the four
elders, the one Zuo Mo was frightened of the most was the sect leader. The sect leader always
spoke moderately, was friendly and warm, but for some reason, Zuo Mo was always terrified of
the sect leader that had brought him back.

So it was comprehending sword essence when he was in lianqi. Zuo Mo relaxed slightly. There
shouldnt be a problem with that matter.
This disciple felt at the time that since the sword essence couldnt make jingshi, it wasnt as
practical as being a ling plant farmer Zuo Mo deliberately stammered out.
The enormous yard was completely silent.
Hearing Zuo Mos answer, even though the four had cultivations of jindan, they were completely
dumbstruck. The four stared at each other, not knowing to laugh or cry. Xiao Guo, Li Ying Feng
and the others were trying their best to not laugh so much that their bodies were shuddering.
Actually, for a long time, that had been Zuo Mos true thoughts. So he was extremely natural
when he said it.
Everyone knew what Zuo Mo was normally like. A person that dared to risk death to go to Ling
Ying Sect to steal talismans. It was normal for him to say something like this.
Make jingshi! You only know how to make jingshi! One day, youll be smashed to death by
jingshi Hearing that Zuo Mo had wasted his talents for such a ridiculous reason, Shi Feng
Rong was furious!
Itll be worth it to be smashed by jingshi Zuo Mo reflexively muttered. The moment it
came out, he knew it was bad. Master and the others had very keen hearing. Wasnt he finding
trouble for himself?
Once one was injured, their self-control was lowered!
Shi Feng Rong was so angered by Zuo Mo that her entire body shook, the finger that she pointed
at him shaking.
Yan Les face was full of helplessness. Such a money-obsessed disciple, but his talent was so
good
Only Pei Yuan Rans expression was normal. His tone was still very warm, Oh, if I remember
correctly, you only learned Li Water Sword Scripture after you entered zhuji. Then, before that,
what sword essence had you comprehended?
Zuo Mo instantly was alarmed!
Damn it! How did he forget that!

Li Water Sword Scripture was a scripture that he had gone to the records room to get after he
entered zhuji. He hadnt thought that the sect leader, who usually did not act, would have noticed
him so much that he was clear when he had cultivated the Li Water Sword Scripture.
If the sect leader found Pu Yao
Zuo Mo was extremely panicked. He felt more nervous than he had ever been before, his heart
up to his throat.
He swallowed and said hesitantly, Its Shibos Ice Dragon Sword Essence
This was something he certainly would not be able to conceal. If he lied, and the sect leader
made him show it, he would definitely slip up.
Two dots of cold light suddenly lit up in Xin Yans half-lidded eyes. The other three had not
expected Zuo Mos answer. Even Pei Yuan Ran stilled in shock.
Oh, take it out for your Shibo to see. Yan Le said hurriedly.
As expected
Zuo Mo suppressed the terror in his heart and sent out a Tidal Sword essence. It was extremely
weak, but the iciness contained in it was undoubtedly the Ice Dragon Sword Essence.
Where did you learn it? Sect Leader Pei Yuan Ran stared with blazing eyes at Zuo Mo.
The other three had reacted by now. Xin Yan had never taught Zuo Mo the Ice Dragon Sword
Essence and the records had only been opened not long ago. How did Zuo Mo encounter the Ice
Dragon Sword Scripture when he was in lianqi.
The four peoples eyes were blinding. Zuo Mo felt cold up his spine, his limbs freezing.
Damn it, how could he perfect this lie?
Zuo Mos silence made the other four peoples faces ugly.
The tense atmosphere made Li Ying Feng and the others pale. Secretly stealing and learning a
spell, it was a crime punished by death in all sects! No one would have mercy for someone that
did so.
Just as Zuo Mo felt he had reached the end of the road and it was helpless, he was suddenly
inspired.

He stammered, It was the night that Eldest Shixiong entered zhuji I I saw
Shibos ice dragon
Shock appeared on the four peoples faces, chasing away the darkness before. Only now did they
remember that, on that night, in order to turn away the xiuzhe that came to watch, Xin Yan had
revealed his famed Ice Dragon Sword Scripture!
You comprehended it after one look that night? The usually calm Xin Yan finally couldnt stop
himself.
Yes yes Zuo Mo only felt relief as he escaped from death. He shook as he spoke.
Joy and slight guilt came onto Shi Feng Rongs face. There was only shock on the other three
peoples faces, deep shock! Even the usually calm sect leader was so shocked he was speechless.
Just one look, and he comprehended the sword essence. That talent at cultivating the sword
Translator Ramblings: No cliffhanger this time. The complete review of Zuo Mos battle and his
strategy. His answers are just

Wu Kong Hall.
What do all of you think? Pei Yuan Ran asked the other people.
Shi Feng Rong was the first to speak, Other than Second Shixiong, no one else knows [Ice
Dragon Sword Scripture]. The jade scroll had not been released before. With Zuo Mos
cultivation, even if he got it, he could not have read it, She said. She was the first person to
speak up for Zuo Mo, her protective intentions were evident.
Pei Yuan Ran smiled and said, Shimei, dont be nervous. You cant just steal and learn [Ice
Dragon Sword Scripture] even if you wanted to. I just saw that the boy was not obedient and
wanted to scare him.

Xin Yan suddenly said, Its a pity.


Yan Le hurriedly asked, Whats a pity? The other two elders also looked at Xin Yan.
He must have comprehended the sword essence on his own. It has the beginnings of the tide. If
he had kept going like that, it would not be hard to reach the creation of the dragon. It is a pity
that he merged the Li Water sword essence with it. It looks like there is more transformations, but
in reality, it has caused the sword essence to become impure, It was rare that Xin Yan spoke so
much.
The expressions of the three people changed dramatically.
Shidi means that Zuo Mo has ruined it? Pei Yuan Ran, who never showed his emotions, had a
terrible expression had the moment. In reality, he knew that he didnt need to ask that question.
They were all sword xiu and understood the result of an impure sword essence.
Xin Yan didnt speak, but the three people that were familiar with him understood. The three of
them became silent.
All four of them were in a terrible mood. It would have been alright if they didnt know Zuo
Mos potential, but Zuo Mos talent was so amazing, yet he would not be able to progress further
on the Ice Dragon Sword Scripture. For the four people who placed heavy importance on the
legacy of the sect, it was a heavy blow.
Pei Yuan Ran said dejectedly, This is my fault. I was remiss in paying attention to him.
The hearts of the other three were also unwell. Of the four, Shi Feng Rong felt the worst. She had
just been happy about Zuo Mos talent, but in the turn of an eye, she was informed that Zuo Mo
would not progress further on the [Ice Dragon Sword Scripture].
Shixiong, is there really no way? She bit her lips and looked at Xin Yan.
Unless he could remake his sword essence to purify it. However, what he would receive would
be a new sword essence, not Li Water sword essence, nor Ice Dragon. How to progress that, we
cannot teach him, Xin Yan said heavily.
Wu Kong Hall descended into silence.
Just as everyone was blaming themselves, Xin Yan suddenly opened, Since he could
comprehend Ice Dragon sword essence on his own, he is very talented. It is not out of the
question that he could remake his sword essence.

Shi Feng Rong suddenly lifted her head, eyes lighting up as the disappointment left her face,
Does Shixiong have a way?
Pei Yuan Ran and Yan Le were also uplifted. They all knew that Xin Yan was not talkative
usually, but if he spoke of his own initiative, he would definitely have a way. Their eyes looked
towards Xin Yan, waiting for him to continue.
If he could understand more sword scriptures, with his talent, it should not be difficult for him
to remake his sword essence. He just needs to be taught more sword scriptures, Xin Yan said
solemnly, However
What is it? Yan Le couldnt stop himself from asking.
He doesnt seem to be interested in cultivating the sword, Xin Yan said.
The three people stared at each other. They had been concerned about the problem of Zuo Mos
talent and had missed the most important question. Zuo Mo was exceptionally talented, but he
was the epitome of the frivolous disciple. His only habit was making jingshi. As to cultivating
the sword
When had he ever taken the sword seriously?
But this person with no ambitions about the sword had a talent others would admire!
Xin Yans words struck the other three elders dumb. If Zuo Mo didnt want to practice the sword,
they were concerned for no reason. The four of them were all sword xiu and knew very well how
hard it was to cultivate the sword. At higher levels, other than difficulty, there was also danger. If
the persons own resolve was not strong enough, they basically could not achieve anything. In
other words, unless Zuo Mo wanted to learn the sword himself, they could not force him to.
The three couldnt help but thinking how Zuo Mo saying he wanted to be smashed to death by
jingshi.
Pei Yuan Ran suddenly felt a headache come up.
What a troublesome youth

Of course, Zuo Mo didnt know that the sect leader was having a headache over him. He was
soaking in the medicinal tub, celebrating for having overcome a calamity. The mo matrix on his
body had not attracted the attention of the elders. He felt surprised and extremely lucky. When

he inspected the mo matrix on his body, he was shocked to find that, at some unknown time, the
mo matrix had hidden away under his skin.
It was alright, alright
The mo matrix hidden underneath his skin greedily absorbed the medicinal power, quickly fixing
Zuo Mos body. He found that a benefit of the mo matrix was that it could quickly absorb ling
power and medicinal power, and continuously strengthen his body. The fact that his [Vajra
Profound Sutra] progressed so quickly was directly connected to his mo matrix.
After soaking for a few days in the medicine, Zuo Mo found that his benefits in the sect had risen
greatly. He was familiar with dan-making now and could recognize the general components of
the medicinal fluid. He found the medicinal liquid he was soaked in contained many precious
ling medicines.
Zuo Mos mind automatically converted it to jingshi and jumped in fright. Each basin was really
expensive!
This didnt seem like the style of the sect!
Zuo Mo muttered inside but he quickly threw the question to the back of his mind because he
thought about jingshi. This time, he had earned a lot. For him, three hundred pieces of thirdgrade jingshi was not a small sum. He had dared to put down so much, not because he had
enough confidence, but because he had decided to spend all the jingshi before Pu Yao woke up.
If Pu Yao woke up, he wouldnt get one piece of jingshi no matter how much he had.
The odds of Zuo Mo winning had been one to three hundred. Zuo Mo had wagered three hundred
pieces of third-grade jingshi. In other words, his earnings was ninety thousand pieces of thirdgrade jingshi.
Holy f***!
Zuo Mo felt countless jingshi were floating above his head. His soul was floating.
Ninety thousand pieces of third-grade jingshi. One fourth-grade jingshi was worth five hundred
pieces of third-grade jingshi, then it was one hundred and eighty pieces of fourth-grade jingshi!
Heavens!
This was a gigantic sum!

Supposedly, when Li Ying Feng had gone to take out this enormous sum, she had asked Eldest
Shixiong to protect her the whole way. Luckily, Zuo Mo had told her to spread the wagers out, so
no one had been plotting after it. But the worker at the casino that Wei Sheng had gone to wager
at had a special expression when he saw Wei Sheng.
When Li Ying Feng handed the jingshi to Zuo Mo, her hands were shaking.
What Kun Lun introductory jade scrolls? All of that was thrown to the back of Zuo Mos mind.
One hundred and eighty pieces of fourth-grade jingshi. What couldnt he buy? Holding such a
great sum, Zuo Mo did not need to fight at all. Wasnt it just the Kun Lun introductory jade
scroll? He only needed to notice who had picked this jade scroll and buy it from him.
One hundred and eighty pieces of fourth-grade jingshi. Not just the Kun Lun beginner jade
scroll. Zuo Mo felt that even if it was a normal Kun Lun fourth-grade spell, he could buy it.
He made a lot! A lot!
He had never been so wealthy before. At this time, Zuo Mo had just become an upstart, wanting
to run to Dong Fu immediately to start shopping. Possessing such a great sum, he could almost
sweep clean all the talisman and material shops in Dong Fu. Along with him, the casinos had
also earned a lot. They were wishing that a battle like that would occur a few times each day.

In Wu Kong Hall, a cloud had formed.


Its over! Yan Les face was full of helplessness, Now the boy has made such a big amount of
jingshi. Not just cultivating the sword, Im suspicious that he would just start eating and waiting
for death from now on.
How about we take the jingshi from him? Shi Feng Rong said hatefully. She hated Zuo Mos
lack of ambition and grieved over her unluckiness!
Thats not proper! Pei Yuan Ran shook his head, He earned it properly. If we take it away,
how would we be different from robbers? By that time, we might force him into another sect.
The three were frightened.
Right, any sect would compete for a disciple that was as talented as Zuo Mo. If nothing else, if
they crossed the line, it would be reasonable that they could force Zuo Mo away. Even a strong
person like Tian Song Zi who was on good relations with Wu Kong Sword Sect wouldnt give up
on him.

What should we do now? Shi Feng Rongs face was full of worry. Before, they had been
discussing the possibility of bribing Zuo Mo since he was so miserly. But Zuo Mo had received
such a fortune. Even Pei Yuan Ran and the others were jealous of such a large amount of jingshi.
Without a doubt, Zuo Mo had become the richest person in Wu Kong Sword Sect!
To bribe him with Wu Kong Sword Sects thin assets, it was not possible.
Pei Yuan Ran couldnt help but start rubbing his throbbing brow again.
In the next few days, Zuo Mo floated as he walked. It was like he was stepping in cotton. There
was only one question in his mind.
How to spend this much jingshi?
However, he didnt have time to consider that problem anymore because it was time for Wei
Sheng Shixiongs match. Wei Sheng Shixiongs opponent was a sword xiu called Zuo Lin. He
was a strong sword xiu, halfway up in the various rankings.
Having had a taste of gambling, Zuo Mo wanted to pull Li Ying Feng along to make some bets.
But a frightened Li Ying Feng shook her head. She felt that her heart couldnt tolerate wagering
like this. Without any other way, Zuo Mo could only take Xiao Guo along to go bet at the big
casinos.
Zuo Mo had become famous in Dong Fu. The employees at the casino instantly recognized him.
After going to two casinos, Zuo Mo could only let Xiao Guo go make the bets.
If Zuo Mo was asked who he was most confident in, then it definitely would be Wei Sheng
Shixiong! So he did not hesitate in his wagering. To avoid being detected, he was very subdued.
However, he pulled Xiao Guo along to bet at every casino in Dong Fu, all for Wei Sheng
Shixiong winning.
However, the payout rate at every casino for Wei Sheng to win was very low. Everyone felt that
Wei Sheng would win. Since the casinos were opened by those local factions, they all knew that
Wei Sheng had caused an apparition when he entered zhuji.
As expected, Wei Sheng Shixiong crisply defeated Zuo Lin and won.
In this match, people had noticed that Wei Sheng was clearly more powerful than his opponent.
After this fight, Wei Sheng was rocketed up in the rankings, easily getting into the top ten and
became a candidate for winning.

Even though the payout was not high, Zuo Mo had invested a lot. In this match, he had made a
little profit of ten pieces of fourth-grade jingshi.
As expected, if one had jingshi, it was easier to make jingshi. Zuo Mo sighed.
Wei Sheng Shixiong had won and he had no further interest in the following matches.
Even though his wounds had not fully healed, he was still trying to think of ways to spend the
jingshi!
Translator Ramblings: Zuo Mo doesnt care but his lack of knowledge did him a disservice with
his sword essence. Of course, he really doesnt have that much talent so his hopes of actually
progressing with the Ice Dragon Sword Scripture is not very high unless he is very motivated.
Also, 180 pieces of fourth-grade jingshi!

warlord212.
Chapter One Hundred and Twenty Eight The Hundred Treasure Flying Pavilion
For Zuo Mo, the question in front of him was an extremely serious one to spend this
enormous amount of jingshi.
In his perspective, it was not outrageous to label it a serious problem. If he hadnt spent all of the
jingshi before Pu Yao woke up, then he definitely wouldnt get a single piece. His original
intentions when he had bet the original amount was because he didnt want the three hundred
pieces of third-grade jingshi to land in Pu Yaos hand. This was great now. The situation hadnt
changed and he needed to find a way to spend even more jingshi.
He definitely had to spend it! Before Pu Yao woke up!
If such a large sum of jingshi ended up in Pu Yaos hands, Zuo Mo felt that he would go crazy.
To avoid the worst case scenario, Zuo Mo decided to act immediately.
However, before he could leave the mountain gates, he was called by the sect leader to Wu Kong
Hall.
Recently, he had been too flashy. It was better to be a bit more careful. Zuo Mo decided to be
more low-key. If he angered the sect leader and the others, he wouldnt have easy days.
Xiao Mo. The sect leader raised a tea cup and took a sip, saying slowly, I heard you do not
want to attend the next fight?
Sect Leader, its not that this disciple doesnt want to, but is unable to. See, this disciples
wounds have not healed. Even though the next opponent is unknown but it will definitely be a
ningmai expert, and the match will be unwinnable. My wounds would be aggrieved, and leave

behind hidden weaknesses for future cultivation. This disciple feels that the Sword Test
Conference is just to gain some experience. This disciple has learned a lot this time. If this
disciple gets hurt in order to win, and damages the base, wouldnt that be doing more harm than
good? Zuo Mo said with a thick face.
The sect leader had a smiling expression as he looked at Zuo Mo. Zuo Mo instantly had a bad
feeling.
You have thought about the situation. Not bad, not bad. However, things have changed. One
competitor had left due to an emergency so there will be one person who will draw a bye. Elder
Tian Song Zi admired your performance last time very much and has decided to give the bye to
you. You have to perform well to not fail the hopes of Elder Tian Song Zi. As to the wounds you
have, dont worry, your master wouldnt bear for you to fight with wounds.
Zuo Mo instantly froze. He still needed to attend the competition?
Wasnt it already known to be a loss?
Other people only saw his dazzle and success in his match with Chao An. What they didnt
know was how much he had prepared for that. Even his luck had been extremely good in order
for him to achieve victory. Through the information that Fu Jin had found on Chao An before the
match, he had found Chao Ans weakness. He also fully used the wagering to place enormous
pressure on Chao An. He had used everything he could think about, he had really put all his
effort into scheming, just so he could barely make the victory.
The gap between zhuji and ningmai was still gigantic. If it was any other competitor, he would
have lost. Other than the killing moves like the yin fire bead which was not suited to being used
in public, he had done everything that he could.
The sect leader wanted him to keep attending the competition? What did he have left to use to
compete?
He felt his mind was a bit stuck. Did the sect leader really think that he could defeat ningmai like
he was cutting vegetables? He shouldnt! Zuo Mo raised his head slightly to glance at the sect
leader and instantly shook his head inside. Not in any way did the sect leader seem like such an
idiot.
Just as he was thinking, he heard the sect leader say with a smile, Go prepare well.
Zuo Mo dejectedly left Wu Kong Hall. For a long while, he couldnt focus. A bye? This kind of
thing happened?
Just as he was dazing away on Silly Birds back, he suddenly heard Pu Yaos voice, Give me
five yin beads.
This was definitely the voice that Zuo Mo didnt want to hear the most. Consequently, his body
suddenly froze when he heard it. When did this guy wake up?
However, he quickly responded. Pu Yaos voice was very rushed. He clearly was in desperate
need of the yin beads. Without a second word, he took out five yin beads to shove to Pu Yao. Pu
Yao, having obtained the yin beads, instantly disappeared.
Only now did Zuo Mo feel his heart pumping hard. Damn It, Pu Yao was going to wake soon!
No way! He needed to be quicker!

Zuo Mo felt as though there was a fire below his butt as he frantically urged Silly Bird to move.
He could feel his heartbeat continuously increasing in speed, his mouth dry. One hundred and
ninety pieces of fourth-grade jingshi! Before the competition, he had never even seen a fourthgrade jingshi before, much less one hundred and ninety pieces of fourth-grade jingshi. When he
thought that this gigantic fortune might not belong to him, Zuo Mo felt terrible.
With a stronger desire to spend the jingshi, Zuo Mo came to Dong Fu again.
This time, he didnt wander around on the ground. He headed straight for the finest floating
market in Dong Fu, the Hundred Treasure Flying Pavilion.
The Hundred Treasures Island was the finest market in Dong Fu and what it sold was the most
expensive and highest-quality items that could be bought in Dong Fu. Every talisman that was
sold here was the finest of the finest. The raw materials that it sold were all rare items. The
Hundred Treasure Flying Pavilion was forged from a small mountain peak. The reason that it
could always float in the air and never needed to land was due to the jinzhi that were on it. There
had never been anyone that made trouble at the Hundred Treasure Flying Pavilion, not even
jindan experts.
This was the first time Zuo Mo came to the Hundred Treasure Flying Pavilion. If he didnt have
one hundred and ninety pieces of fourth-grade jingshi on him, he definitely wouldnt have the
bravery to come to such a high-end store.
The mountain was not big, only about seventy or so mu. It was extremely beautiful, all kinds of
ling grasses and flowers planted, as the ling music flowed. Zuo Mo didnt really know much
about the ling music, but the ling grasses and flowers really frightened him, who was familiar
with dan-making.
F***!
Any stalk of ling grass and flower in here was a rare specimen that Zuo Mo had only seen on the
jade scrolls.
Fourth-grade Antennaria Reed, fourth-grade Nightmare Mushroom, fourth-grade Red Fire
Lotus
They didnt need to put on any airs. Those fourth and fifth-grade ling plants were just planted
there. If the customers that came in did not have full purses, they would have to be careful when
they lifted their feet in fears of stepping on a plant. They couldnt afford to pay the price.
A place like the Hundred Treasure Flying Pavilion never had to worry it would be too crowded.
When Zuo Mo arrived, there was only one guest inside.
The person that received Zuo Mo was a storekeeper wearing a gold-embroidered black robe. His
eyes were very keen. When he saw Zuo Mo, he enthusiastically came over, Hey, isnt this
Mister Zuo? Such an honor to have you as a customer! Mister Zuo, your match really helped us
Dong Fu gain some honor! That was a good fight. Tsk tsk, three chain, I was really shocked
when I saw it. Receiving you today, it is this ones good fortune!
The storekeepers voice was warm but not fawning. His words touched Zuo Mos pride but
didnt exaggerate. Even the volume was controlled at an appropriate level, and wouldnt disturb
the customer that was browsing through the talismans not far away. What shocked Zuo Mo even
more was that this friendly-looking storekeeper was a ningmai!

At this time, Zuo Mo couldnt help but look at the other shopkeeper. As expected, also in
ningmai! There wasnt just the two shopkeepers. There were two more shopkeepers waiting by
the side, also ningmai cultivation.
Ningmai cultivators used as shopkeepers, this was enough to shock Zuo Mo!
He thought about the matches going on below, the ningmai xiuzhe fighting back and forth,
extremely grand. Yet on the Hundred Treasure Flying Pavilion, the same ningmai level xiuzhe
were only shopkeepers.
He wondered who was the owner of the Hundred Treasure Flying Pavilion. The other must have
a very big background.
There was one benefit to Zuo Mos zombie face. No matter what he was thinking inside, it would
never show on the surface.
I came to see if there was something suited for me. Due to the others cultivation, Zuo Mo was
also very polite.
Oh, then look around. If you see something you like, this one can explain more. The
shopkeeper smiled as he said. He was not too warm but not cold.
With just a look, Zuo Mos eyes blurred.
Right now, he did own many good things, but other than the jade scroll at his waist that could
barely be put in the Hundred Treasure Flying Pavilion, none of the other things were comparable.
These were all good things! Good things! Zuo Mo swallowed continuously, his eyes lit up,
wanting to sweep all the talismans on the shelves into his purse. However, when he saw the
prices marked on the items, it was like a bucket of cold water was poured over his head.
This flying sword uses the Deep Ocean Water Soul Crystals from ten thousand miles under the
surface. Each Water Soul Crystal is above fourth-grade and was made by a famous master. This
flying sword is made from seven swords and can be arranged in many ways. The [Big Dipper] on
the body of the swords can easily set the swords to become the Big Dipper Sword Formation. If
it is in the hands of those who are skilled in formations such as you, Mister Zuo, it would
become even more powerful!
Zuo Mo looked at the price, Six hundred pieces of fourth-grade jingshi. His little heart trembled
and he hurriedly looked at another item.
This is a Sky Cotton Woven Robe. It is woven out of sixteen thousand strands of complete Ice
Sky Silk. The Ice Sky Silk is extremely strong and hard to break with a flying sword, and it can
automatically absorb ling energy from the surroundings. There are seven formations on there,
each with different effects, all of them useful. Also, this Sky Cotton Woven Robe is extremely
strong in defense. We have done specialized testing
Price, five hundred pieces of fourth-grade jingshi! Zuo Mo left without raising his head.
Zuo Mo walked around the different shelves as he scanned through superficially. Each talisman
was so good, but the price of each talisman made him feel hopeless. By the end, he was
completely numb, and just looked at the price first.
The shopkeeper did not hurry him and was not impatient. He showed extreme professionalism.
Zuo Mo suddenly saw an item priced at one hundred pieces of fourth-grade jingshi. He couldnt
help but stop in his stride.

A ring that was like a circle of metal laid there silently.


Noticing Zuo Mos gaze, the shopkeeper introduced dutifully, This dimensional ring is half a
failure. The forger had originally wanted to forge a fourth-grade dimensional ring but failed in
the end. This dimensional ring is slightly bigger than normal third-grade dimensional rings, but it
is smaller than fourth-grade dimensional rings. Because the owner is familiar with the forger, this
dimensional ring was placed to sell here.
Dimensional ring!
Glee rushed out of Zuo Mos heart! He hadnt thought that the Hundred Treasures Flying
Pavilion would sell dimensional rings!
The so-called dimensional rings were storage talismans. The hundred treasure pouch at his waist
was a similar talisman that could store and transport items. However, the dimensional ring was a
higher level storage talisman than the hundred treasure pouch. It wasnt just that it could contain
more items, but the items stored would not increase the weight. That was where it was much
better than a hundred treasure pouch. However, it was much harder to make a dimensional ring
than a hundred treasure pouch. It was hard to find one on the market and the price never dropped.
If it wasnt for his unexpected windfall, Zuo Mo didnt know how long it would take before he
could afford a dimensional ring.
The dimensional ring was an extremely useful talisman. Zuo Mo almost didnt need to think and
took out the jingshi, Ill buy it!
Translator Ramblings: Isnt Zuo Mo lucky? Well, he doesnt think so. His plans of bankrupting
himself was ruined and hes being thrown off the deep end.
One of the staples of a Chinese fantasy novel shows up, the dimensional ring! Zuo Mo is
relatively rich but not rich enough to sweep the high-end shops.
Thanks for all your comments!
As accurate as I can remember, the conversion for jingshi is:
1o first-grade = 1 second-grade
100 second-grade = 1 third-grade
500 third grade = 1 fourth-grade

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Twenty


Nine Five Colored Pagoda
Chapter One Hundred and Twenty Nine Five Colored Pagoda
Zuo Mo couldnt let go of the dimensional ring once he had it in his hands.
Mister Zuo really has good eyes. The space inside this dimensional ring is nine square zhang,
more than two times the area of a normal third-grade dimensional ring, but the price is only thirty
percent more expensive than a third-grade dimensional ring. Stored inside the dimensional ring,
theres no rotting or decay. It will be as fresh as it was even one hundred years later. It is easy to

take items out. The mind only has to move, and it will enter the palm. The shopkeeper praised
and then handed Zuo Mo a jade scroll, This jade scroll has some of the special jinzhi for
dimensional rings. This shop gives them for free. Mister Zuo is really a promising youth. This
store has opened for a long time yet Mister Zuo is the first customer to have a dimensional ring
in zhuji.
It really was a good item!
Zuo Mo threw everything from the hundred treasures pouch into the dimensional ring, and felt
his body become light. His hundred treasures pouch had been holding a huge mountain of items.
If it wasnt that he had made slight progress with the [Vajra Profound Sutra], he would have been
crushed under the weight of the items. Now that it was all in the dimensional ring, he couldnt
feel any weight. The feeling was too good! A nine square zhang area was empty. His large pile of
items only took up an extremely small corner. The gigantic space was enough to put countless
formation disks.
What medicine-seal-style? With the dimensional ring, then it would be the true medicine-sealstyle!
Even though he had known before, but he still sighed at the contrast between the dimensional
ring and the hundred treasures pouch. No wonder it was so expensive. One piece of jingshi, one
kind of item. What Zuo Mo was especially satisfied with was the appearance of this dimensional
ring was plain. It looked like a normal metal circle and was unattractive to the eye. If one didnt
already know, they wouldnt ever think that this non-descript metal circle was a dimensional ring
worth one hundred fourth-grade jingshi.
Zuo Mo knew that his cultivation was low. If he was too flashy, then that was no different than
asking for death. Dong Fu might look orderly on the surface, but things like killing people for
their treasures, and people suddenly disappearing were common occurrences. People were
moved by wealth, people died for wealth, birds died for food. This was the same no matter the
place. He didnt want to lose his little life for a dimensional ring. The plain appearance of the
dimensional ring was well suited to his mentality.
It was worth spending one hundred pieces of fourth-grade jingshi.
Extremely satisfied, Zuo Mo thought about the remaining ninety pieces of jingshi.
Lets continue!
The shopkeeper was slightly surprised at the wealth Zuo Mo had. This was the first time he had
seen a zhuji xiuzhe spend one hundred pieces of fourth-grade jingshi without batting an eye. He
didnt know that Zuo Mo was racing against time with Pu Yao. If Pu Yao didnt exist, he would

have tightly gripped onto the one hundred pieces of fourth-grade jingshi and certainly couldnt
bear to buy the dimensional ring.
But right now, the jingshi would only be his if he spent it.
Even though Pu Yao would always offer things like spells in what he called an exchange, but
thinking about the things that Pu Yao gave, Zuo Mo was so upset he wanted to spit blood. No
matter if it was the [Embryonic Breathing Spiritual Cultivation] of the first time, or the mo
matrix, and yao seed later, all of them had side effects. As for things like [Fragrance Knowledge],
he wanted to kill someone.
It wasnt a crime to spend. If he didnt spend, he definitely would cry.
Zuo Mo kept walking forward. His eyes landed on a five colored pagoda. This five colored
pagoda was made up of five levels, each level a different color. Familiar with the five elements,
Zuo Mo instantly recognized it as a five element talisman. Each level represented an element of
the five elements.
This Five Element Pagoda was made by a roaming xiu. Originally, this roaming xiu had
intended to make a talisman that could increase control over the five elements, but his cultivation
went astray and his spirit was extinguished. This unfinished talisman was sold to this store by his
family. The thought behind this Five Element Pagoda is extremely clever. The five levels of the
tower might not be made from the best materials, but it would have been hard to gather all five.
It is a pity that Dong Fu is dominated by sword xiu and not many cultivate the five elements
which is why none have asked about this talisman. I heart that Mister Zuo has a side profession
of ling farming. This Five Color Pagoda is very suited for you. If you are willing, this store
would also give to you the spells to forge the Five Color Pagoda for free. It is the jade scroll that
the original owner of the Five Color Pagoda left.
Zuo Mo looked at the price, fifty pieces of fourth-grade jingshi. He couldnt help but be tempted,
The item is good, but the price
Hearing this, the shopkeeper said apologetically, Im sorry. Its not that this one is unwilling, but
the store does not bargain.
The other might have said it politely but the tone was resolute. It looked like he really couldnt
bargain, Zuo Mo muttered inside. But he was greatly tempted by the Five Colored Pagoda. He
could only say, Could you take it out for me to see.
No problem. The shopkeeper crisply took out the Five Colored Pagoda and handed it to Zuo
Mo.

Once the Five Colored Pagoda came into Zuo Mos hands, he felt the lively five element
energies. He started out as a ling plant farmer and was extremely sensitive to the five elements.
Even the sword scriptures that he had practiced afterwards had clear inclinations towards the five
elements. The levels arranged from the top of the pagoda to the base were gold, wood, water,
fire, and earth. When ling power was channeled into the pagoda, the pagoda instantly shone with
five colored light. Zuo Mo felt as though he was holding an extremely pure ball of five element
energy. His mind moved as he silently casted Little Art of Cloud and Rain. Then he felt the
moisture surrounding him gather in his hand.
So quick!
Zuo Mo was very shocked!
It was twice as fast as when he casted the Little Art of Cloud and Rain by himself.
Such a powerful talisman!
Zuo Mo instantly realized the value of this talisman. Maybe, in the hands of another person, this
talisman would not be very useful, but in his hands, it would be very effective.
This Five Colored Pagoda is suited to you. A voice suddenly came from behind him.
Hearing this, Zuo Mo turned around. At some unknown time, someone had been standing behind
him without his knowledge.
It was him! Zuo Mo couldnt help but still.
In front of him was a person wearing a black gauze hat. It was the guy that had came to him to
cut the cold magnet. This person called Su had mysterious origins. He was very strong and had
easily won in the last few matches. He was ranked in the top ten of all the rankings. He had also
made a wager with Chao An, which pushed Chao An into dangerous straits. He could be
considered to have helped Zuo Mo out.
Of course, Zuo Mo didnt have any relationship with him, so Zuo Mo had no reason to think the
other had wagered just to help him out.
Ill buy it for you. Su said shortly, You just have to help me with something.
The shopkeeper beside them perceptively moved to one side, not disturbing their conversation.
Zuo Mo was extremely wary. He shook his head, saying, No need, I can buy it myself. Fifty
pieces of fourth-grade jingshi was not a small amount. Converted, it was twenty five thousand

third-grade jingshi. A favor whose payment reached fifty pieces of fourth-grade jingshi. Even
thinking with his feet, Zuo Mo knew the favor wasnt an easy one.
Adding on this. Su took out a jade bottle, Fort Chaos Intense Fire Dan.Thirty six of them.
Help me forge something.
Forge something?
Zuo Mos heart rested slightly. What ge is most afraid of is fighting and killing. Oh, wait,
thinking about his history of almost getting killed when he had processed the Inky Black Lotus
seed, he hurriedly asked, Forge what?
Forge the cold magnet into sword billets. Su said.
Thats not possible. Zuo Mo said decisively, That thing is fourth grade. It took all my power
just to cut it. I dont have the power to forge it into sword billets.
You can do it. Sus voice still was unaffected, You could process the Inky Black Lotus seed.
Adding on this Five Colored Pagoda, you can forge it.
It would have been better if Su hadnt mentioned the Inky Black Lotus seed. Once it was
mentioned, the anger in Zuo Mos heart erupted. If this bastard in front of him hadnt spread the
information, then that business wouldnt have come looking for him. Ge had almost lost his little
life!
I will also help you get into the top ten.
Sus light words instantly dissipated the fire in Zuo Mos heart.
Zuo Mos heart moved. He felt out with a question, Then what do I do for the second round?
Youre the bye for the second round. Su said.
Zuo Mo was secretly shocked. This guy did have some skill to be able to know such secret
information. He had just found out from the sect leader that he was the bye and this person in
front of him actually knew as well.
The others offer tempted him. Pu Yao was most likely going to wake up soon. If Pu Yao woke
up, the jingshi would instantly change possession, then his idea of buying the Kun Lun
Preliminary Formation jade scroll was not realistic. If he wanted to get that jade scroll, then he
had to go through the competition. There would be one hundred people that would attend the last

no-rules competition. Even though all one hundred people would get a prize, but the further back
he was ranked, the less the chance he would get the jade scroll.
But Zuo Mo kept on feeling the others offer was not so simple.
Tell me how to forge the sword billets? He first decided to find out more.
Carve a formation on each billet with Dying Flowing Moon. There are four formations in total.
Su said.
Dying Flowing Moon
Zuo Mos head shook like a rattledrum, Not possible, not possible! Dying flowing moon isnt a
material I can use at this moment. He was not being humble. Even though Dying Flowing Moon
was a third grade material, but it was a rare one. It had extremely special properties and was truly
a high-end material.
They might all be third-grade, but there would be great differences.
The so-called grades were, in reality, an extremely vague concept. Sometimes, it referred to the a
horizontal ranking, while other times a a vertical ranking. This vague categorization system was
not because cultivators were not rigorous but due to the complexity of the attributes of many
materials.
For example, the Stalagmite fire. His was a second-grade fire seed. This was the horizontal
ranking, because it held the attributes of a fire seed. There were many types of stalagmite fire, if
it was nurtured for a long period of time in a place with denser ling energy, it would transform
into another kind of fire Cold Purple Fire, and if it kept on going, it would form yet another fire
Yin Wave Fire.
The Stalagmite fire was second-grade, the Cold Purple Fire was third-grade, the Yin Wave Fire
was fourth-grade.
Cultivators would see them as a wholly different species, because they were of different grades,
and they would have different attributes, but were in fact the same fire source.
Some materials would increase in quality but keep its appearance and fall under the vertical
rankings. For example fire dragon grass. Third-grade fire dragon grass and fourth-grade fire
dragon grass might be different in terms of the ling energy it contained and the color of its fruit,
but it was still very easy to identify it as a fire dragon grass.

Dying Flowing Moon belonged to the second type. The so-called third-grade Dying Flowing
Moon referred to, how in all of the Dying Flowing Moon, it was ranked in the third to last
species.
In reality, the second situation occurred far more frequently than the first situation.
This kind of categorization had formed over thousands of years, according to convention.
Dying Flowing Moon was a truly high-end material. It was extremely difficult to gather and to
process. It certainly wasnt something a zhuji xiuzhe like Zuo Mo could forge. Zuo Mo suspected
that he couldnt even process first and second-grade Dying Flowing Moon, much less the thirdgrade Dying Flowing Moon.
He couldnt take the business!
Translator Ramblings: Dont take the rankings too seriously but just know that some will
transform and others wont when they level up. Horizontal and vertical are very weird so does
anyone have a better suggestion?

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Thirty


Seeing Lin Qian Again
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom and cactuar0.
Chapter One Hundred and Thirty Seeing Lin Qian Again
No matter if it was dan-making or forging, it all carried risks. This risk didnt just mean the risk
of failure, but danger as well!
The loss of all ling power, souls being torn out, ling power reversing, and being poisoned
The lightest would be serious bodily harm, the most severe would be the destruction of the soul.
If one was processing something that was far beyond their abilities, the dangers would increase
several times over.
Yao beasts needed cultivators to kill them, and those ling grasses and medicine that had lived for
hundreds and thousands of years, would they let others kill them easily? All beings in the world
naturally had their own defenses. Those weak looking entities, the viciousness and dangers
contained in their weak bodies could easily kill a person.

Zuo Mo might frequently do some risky things, but at the core, he was an extremely cautious
person. It was only when he didnt have enough assets and he had no choice that he took these
risks. The lowest level cultivators, if they didnt bet with their life, what could they bet with?
But right now, his needs and the others offer hadnt reached the point that needed him to risk so
much.
Im sorry, Im very busy right now. Zuo Mo said expressionlessly.
Brother Zuo. Suddenly, a slightly familiar voice came from behind him. Zuo Mo stilled and
turned around. Sometime unknown to him, a white-clothed male was standing behind him. His
features seemed slightly familiar, where had he seen them?
Huh, wasnt this Lin Qian? Zuo Mo quickly remembered where he had seen this person,
especially when there were not many that were as handsome as this.
The rich young master, the fat sheep? This guy hadnt left?
Lin Qian, you havent left yet? Zuo Mo had a pretty good impression of this handsome guy.
Meeting him again, he was quite happy.
Haha, the Sword Test Conference is such an interesting event. If I left, and didnt see Brother
Zuos spectacular performance, I would have regretted it for the rest of my life. Lin Qian smiled
as he said, his tone warm and humble, subtly closing the distance between the two.
Zuo Mo was slightly embarrassed by Lin Qians words, and said, I was just lucky. Lin Qians
knowledge far exceeded him. His little tricks were slightly clever, but that depended on who he
was using them on.
However, his zombie face could not blush.
Luck is a kind of strength. Lin Qian laughed as he stated in a forthright manner. He turned
towards the black gauze hat-wearing Su, and said with a slight smile, Didnt think I would meet
Su Shimei here. Please send my greetings to Wen Zhenren.
Who are you? Sus voice was cold, a flash of ice streaking through her eyes behind the black
gauze. The light robes billowed as though she was going to attack at any moment. Suddenly
being called out by name by a stranger, she was shocked and angry. The expressions of the
surrounding shopkeepers changed.
Zuo Mo felt the temperature around him drop and was shocked. Su, who had been already
mysterious in his eyes, became even more powerful and mysterious.

Lin Qian was not affected at all, smiling, and stating, Shimei has never seen me before and
naturally would not recognize me.
He didnt seem to want to keep going with the question. He smiled at Zuo Mo, saying, Brother
Zuo, why are you not interested in Su Shimeis suggestion? According to my knowledge, other
than the prizes, for the first ten people, if they are local disciples, there are also other benefits.
Other benefits? Zuo Mo stilled and scratched his head, How come I havent heard of this?
Ha ha, destiny cannot be revealed. Lin Qian smiled.
Even with the greatest benefits, one needs to be alive to enjoy it. Zuo Mo shrugged his
shoulders uncaringly. He could barely manage to process the fourth-grade cold magnet, but to
carve formations onto the sword billets and to use Dying Flowing Moon in the process, it was far
beyond of his abilities. The two of them had met before, and Zuo Mo was much more casual.
Lin Qian liked Zuo Mos casual attitude as well. Hearing this, he laughed, Brother Zuo is not
confident?
As Zuo Mo and Lin Qian talked, Su maintained her silence. She wasnt dumb and could see that
Lin Qian was helping her. From that, it could be seen that Lin Qian did not have ill intentions.
Zuo Mo snickered, No way about it. Im only in zhuji. If Im in ningmai, if you come find me,
as long as the price is right, theres no problem.
The black gauze of Sus hat rippled. When Zuo Mo was in ningmai, how long did she have to
wait? There were too many uncertainties in cultivation. No one could guarantee that they would
reach a certain stage in an amount of time. In the process of cultivation, there were way too many
strange occurrences that even the greatest geniuses could not avoid.
So Brother Zuo is worried about this problem. I actually know a way that might solve it. Lin
Qian said in a heavy voice.
Lets hear it. Zuo Mo said. Lin Qian might have vast amounts of knowledge, but the problem
of cultivation was not something that could be solved easily.
Brother Zuos spirit is exceptionally strong. Why dont you consider a double-chained Four
Turn Fire formation?
Lin Qians words were like a streak of lightning that crossed the sky. It was like someone had
cast a paralysis spell on him. He was struck dumb.

Double-chained Four Turn Fire formation double-chained Four Turn Fire formation
Zuo Mos eyes were unfocused like he was going crazy as he muttered to himself. He dropped to
the floor, a few jingshi in his hands as he started to set up a formation on the ground.
Lin Qian waved his hand at one of the shopkeepers who instantly understood and closed the
doors to the store. Su started with slight shock at Lin Qian but maintained her silence. She knew
that Zuo Mo was in the middle of an epiphany. Epiphanies were states that could only be
encountered through luck but never through skill. If it was interrupted, it was hard for the person
to regain that wonderful state.
Lin Qian suddenly beckoned with his hand at Su and turned to walk to another room.
Su hesitated for a beat but still followed.
When Su walked into the room, the light in the room suddenly flashed, and the sounds from the
outside instantly disappeared. She was very shocked. The cultivation of the person in front of her
was unfathomably deep.
Su Shimei, dont worry. This is just a sound blocking jinzhi. Lin Qian smiled as he said, Is
shimei still suspicious about my identity? Finishing, he took out a jade pendant, Does Shimei
recognize this item?
Sus gaze landed on the jade pendant in Lin Qians hands, and her body trembled. She could not
maintain her composure, A Heart Lake Pendant!
Lin Qian smiled and generously handed the jade pendant in his hands to Su.
Su took over the jade pendant. The little lake on the jade pendant was like a living entity,
constantly changing. Occasionally, the wind would cause ripples, or the surface would be as
smooth as a mirror. Feeling the familiar presences coming from the jade pendant as well as the
jinzhi unique to her sect, she instantly knew that the jade pendant in her hand was the token of
the sect, a Heart Lake Pendant!
But, she had never heard of another elder in the sect that still had a disciple. Yet this Heart Lake
Pendant was real! Those that possessed a Heart Lake Pendant were all core elders of the sect.
Her master had one. But even the best disciples of the sect, her and Gu Rong Ping, did not have a
Heart Lake Pendant. The sect had a rule, seeing the jade pendant was as seeing the zhenren.
Su bowed, and made a greeting again, Shishu!

Shimei is polite. Lin Qian returned the greeting and said, Shimei and I are about the same age.
Its better for us to refer to each other this way. I have not returned to the sect, so there is no basis
to call me Shishu.
Su didnt know what to say and kept her silence. She was still in the middle of a deep shock.
From when Lin Shixiong had appeared until now, she still was not able to see Shixiongs true
power. The more hidden it was, the more awed she was. This meant that Lin Shixiongs strength
was at least two levels above her.
She wondered which elder had raised such a terrifying person!
She suddenly felt lucky that Lin Shixiong was a disciple of her sect!
The shopkeepers saw the light flashing outside the room, and perceptively moved their eyes
away.
When Zuo Mo opened his eyes, Su and Lin Qian entered his vision.
Congratulations, Brother Zuo! Lin Qian smiled and said, After today, Brother Zuos road to
wealth has become even wider.
Zuo Mo, who had just gathered his thoughts, was happy when he heard Lin Qians words. He
raised his hands in a greeting, I have to thank Brother Lin. Without Brother Lins guidance, I
wouldnt have thought about this method at all.
This is Brother Zuos own skill. I just said some things, and hadnt thought that Brother Zuo
could really make them into reality. Im very shocked. Lin Qian smiled as he shook his head.
Zuo Mo didnt say anymore. He lowered his head as he savored the wonderful state he had been
in. It was very hard for him to describe the state he had been in. At the same time, he found it
hard to remember what he had realized, but he felt that a little thin paper window had been
broken. Many places that he hadnt noticed before, and were ambiguous were now evident.
This feeling was really too great!
He stood there, slowly savoring it. It was only when his mind had calmed down that he raised his
head again.
At this time, he suddenly found that, without him noticing, it had been more than four hours.
Looking at the jingshi fragments on the ground, he was slightly embarrassed. He had
experimented with formations in someone elses store and actually hadnt been thrown out. This
store was really easy going. When he glanced past the shut door to the store, he was slightly

shocked. Then he saw Lin Qian wave a hand for the shopkeeper to open the door, and he
understood.
He became even more curious about Lin Qians origins.
From the words that Lin Qian said, he knew that this fat sheep definitely had a high background,
but looking at it now, it was much stronger than he had imagined. Looking at the respectful
demeanor the shopkeepers had towards Lin Qian, Zuo Mo couldnt help but speculate. Was Lin
Qian the owner of the Hundred Treasure Flying Pavilion? But the first time that he had
encountered Lin Qian, Lin Qian hadnt appeared to have ever come to Dong Fu.
Noticing Zuo Mos gaze, Lin Qian smiled easily and said, Does Brother Zuo have some chance
now at forging? If Brother Zuo agrees, this Five Colored Pagoda can be considered one part of
the payment for Brother Zuo. Other than what Shimei has promised Brother Zuo, I can add some
more. In the future if Brother Zuo comes here, every purchase will be twenty percent off. How
about it, is Brother Zuo satisfied now?
Very rich benefits! Disregarding the value of the Five Colored Pagoda, just this twenty percent
off was extremely valuable.
Just as everyone thought that these were enough to move Zuo Mo, Zuo Mo shook his head.
Oh, If Brother Zuo has some other request, please state it. Lin Qian made a gesture of request.
Ill take the job. Zuo Mo surprised everyone once again, As to payment, Brother Lin just
paid it right now.
Just as everyone was dazed, Zuo Mo pointed at the Five Colored Pagoda, Ill buy the Five
Colored Pagoda.
Finishing, he took out a heap of jingshi.
Everyones faces changed simultaneously. Of low cultivation, with a face of a zombie, Zuo Mo
suddenly became honest and good in their eyes. Behind the gauze, a strange expression came
onto Sus face. The Zuo Mo in front of her was like another person compared to what she knew
before.
At this time, nothing could be seen of Zuo Mos wretchedness or greed.
Was this the guys true personality? As expected, Master was not wrong. You could not judge a
person by their appearance.

Just as she was pondering it, she suddenly heard Zuo Mo hurriedly add with heartache.
Remember the discount!
Translator Ramblings: In case people get confused, there are both levels and stages. For example,
lianqi, zhuji, jindan etc are stages. Each stage has levels. For example, Zuo Mo had to go through
the levels of lianqi at the beginning of the story.
Thank you all for your suggestions! Ill think about it and see if anything further in the story will
alter the definition.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Thirty One


The Wondrous Abilities of The Five Colored Pagoda
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and cactuar0.
Chapter One Hundred and Thirty One The Wondrous Abilities of The Five Colored Pagoda
Zuo Mo left with a heap of items.
Other than the Five Colored Pagoda, he had a large pile of various materials. He had spent all the
jingshi he had. Now that he had the dimensional ring, he completely didnt have to worry about
the problem of weight. The materials of the Hundred Treasure Flying Pavilion was extremely
high-quality. Other than here, Zuo Mo couldnt think he could have brought what he did
anywhere else in Dong Fu. In his mind, after this visit, it would be a long time before he could
come to the Hundred Treasures Flying Pavilion again.
In any case, he could use the materials, so he wasnt wasting anything.
Looking at the piles of materials in the dimensional ring, Zuo Mos heart was very content, and it
washed away the heartache from spending all his jingshi. He also released a long breath. He was
not worried anymore. Hee hee, Pu, Ill let you understand what it was to be penniless.
He also had four pieces of fourth-grade cold magnet, one bottle of Intense Fire Dan, one bottle of
Dying Flowing Moon, and a jade scroll. The Intense Fire Dan was a payment, the jade scroll
recorded the formations that needed to be carved onto the four sword billets.
The moment Zuo Mo left the Hundred Treasure Flying Pavilion, he heard Pu ask urgently: Do
you have jingshi?
Ha ha ha ha Zuo Mo couldnt stop himself from roaring with laughter.

What are you laughing about? Pu Yao who had just woke up was evidently a beat slower.
No no more Zuo Mo tried very hard to stop laughing and said deliberately
seriously: Why didnt you say it earlier? I just bought some things, and spent all the jingshi.
Not even one left? Pu Yao asked dumbly.
Not even one left. Zuo Mo replied certainly.
Zuo Mo was extremely happy and smug to be able to get one over Pu Yao. Sitting on Silly Bird,
he hummed a weird tune. As Silly Bird moved her wings, she rolled her eyes. After a while, she
couldnt bear it anymore, and started to honk, trying to suppress Zuo Mos voice.
In a good mood, Zuo Mo suddenly became angry, throwing a punch to Silly Birds head.
What are you honking about, cant you hear ge is singing?
Silly Bird became dizzy and it took a while to recover. Her head low, she flew on weakly. Zuo
Mo continued to howl at the top of this throat. Once they managed to reach the Little West Wind
Yard, the moment they landed, Silly Bird stumbled over to the water to throw up.
Zuo Mo glanced at Silly Bird, humming: Not able to see ges beauty, it is your greatest crime

Returning to his own little house, and pondering over everything that happened today, Zuo Mo
sank into thought.
There were many suspicious things about this incident. Like Lin Qians identity. The first time he
met Lin Qian, Lin Qian had appeared to be a person that was not familiar with Dong Fu at all.
But looking at it today, he seemed to be very close with the Hundred Treasure Flying Pavilions
owner. What surprised Zuo Mo was that Lin Qian had referred to Su as shimei but Su didnt
seem to recognize him.
Sus origin was a mystery. Adding on an even more mysterious Lin Qian, Zuo Mo suddenly felt
that the incident today was even more bewildering.
Su was slightly better, but Zuo Mo could not clearly see through the constantly smiling Lin Qian,
not one bit. Behind the warm smile, there was something that Zuo Mo was instinctively wary of.
That was why he had persisted in buying the Five Colored Pagoda by himself. Even though he
had spent jingshi, but he wanted to feel comfortable. It was a very bad feeling to owe someone a
favor, and especially owe someone that he didnt know anything about. That was just not
discourteous, but very dangerous.

I still have many things to do. I still have to find answers!


Zuo Mo said to himself.
His attention turned to the Five Colored Pagoda that he bought today. This was an incompletely
forged five element talisman. No wonder it couldnt be sold in Dong Fu. Zuo Mo understood
when he thought about it. Dong Fu was dominated by sword xiu. Most xiuzhe of the five
elements were dan-makers and forgers. Dong Fu didnt have any dan-making and forging xiuzhe
that were wealthy enough to go to the Hundred Treasures Flying Pavilion to spend fifty pieces of
fourth-grade jingshi to by a talisman.
A half-forged talisman that could sell for fifty pieces of fourth-grade jingshi, it was enough to
prove it was not ordinary.
Zuo Mo could only celebrate his good luck. If this Five Colored Pagoda was complete, with his
pitiful cultivation, he wouldnt be able to control it.
He studied the jade scroll that roaming xiu had left behind. Zuo Mo managed to get the general
gist of the roaming xius intentions. He had to sigh with amazement. This roaming xiu had such
great ambitions!
This roaming xiu wanted to create a complete five element world inside the Five Colored
Pagoda. Inside the world, five balls of five element energy would be continuously processed,
and, in the end, form a base source of five elements. They would birth and subdue each other
inside the pagoda, forming a small world at equilibrium. The essence of five element energies
would freely change within the pagoda. As to what this five element would transform into, even
the roaming xiu that was the creator couldnt predict.
Of course, that was just the final goal. That roaming xiu was not an impractical person. Before
this talisman met its final goal, the pagoda still had many uses. The Five Colored Pagoda was a
very unique container. Anything that was put in would be quickly separated into its component
elemental energies. Of course, if what was put in was higher grade than the grade of the Five
Colored Pagoda, it naturally was not possible.
Also, if it was used to cast a spell from the five elements, the effect would multiply.
The Five Color Pagoda was an experimental talisman, so in the jade scroll, there were many
speculations the creator had made, but that did not have much to do with Zuo Mo right now. The
talisman was not something he could complete at the moment. Zuo Mo was doubtful that he
could even complete it when he was in ningmai.

But it was fine if he did not complete it. The maker had already set up the basic skeleton. For
Zuo Mo, what he needed to do was simple. He had to put in five element materials.
Tilting his head to think for a second, Zuo Mo suddenly flicked his finger. A strand of milkywhite flame flew from his finger and entered the Five Colored Pagoda.
The bright red middle level of the Five Colored Pagoda suddenly lit up. As the Stalagmite fire
entered, it was quickly deconstructed into fire energy that circled around the second level of the
five element pagoda. Gold, wood, water, fire, earth. The tip of the tower was gold, the base was
earth. Zuo Mo could clearly feel that the fire element energy inside the Five Colored Pagoda was
a few fractions stronger than before. The red light around the pagoda dissipated, but the red level
was more red than before.
Zuo Mo had expected this but was still surprised. It was not surprising that the Stalagmite fire
could increase the amount of fire element energy. However, the Stalagmite fire was a cold fire.
This didnt seem to change the effect on the pagoda.
He couldnt understand after thinking it over. Zuo Mo decided to not think about it, and
continuously threw materials into the pagoda. As the materials were put into the pagoda, they
would quickly broken down into five element energy, but the color of the pagoda did not change.
Was it that the grade was not high enough?
Zuo Mo sensitively caught the crux of the matter. What he had thrown in had been first-grade
materials so the Five Colored Pagoda did not respond. Hesitating for a second, he gritted his
teeth and threw in a third-grade Green Fragrant Wood. The moment the Green Fragrant Wood
was thrown in, the green light of the wood level suddenly lit up. The wood elemental energy
inside instantly grew bigger.
Having proved what he had suspected, Zuo Mo was not very happy, but sucked in a cold breath.
Woah-oh!
He had thrown in a third-grade Green Fragrant Wood, but the wood element energy inside the
pagoda had just increased just that little bit. How many high level materials would he have to add
in to fill it? Even more importantly, it needed good materials. Zuo Mo guessed that when the five
element energy inside reached a certain level, it would not be satisfied with third-grade materials.
By that time, it would require fourth-level, fifth-level
It was like a bucket of cold water had been poured on his head. Zuo Mos excitement instantly
cooled greatly. He was in poverty right now. He definitely could not use expensive materials to
fill this bottomless hole.

His idea of continuing to process it was quickly killed in its infancy. He started to study the other
uses of the Five Colored Pagoda.
As he studied the jade scroll, and examined the Five Colored Pagoda, Zuo Mo did find a very
practical use.
Zuo Mo found the five element energies inside the Five Colored Pagoda could be taken out for
his use!
This discovery made him exhilarated.
Xiuzhe of the five elements usually needed to form their own five element energies. For example,
xiuzhe that specialized in fire would use scriptures from the very beginning to turn the ling power
inside the body into fire ling power to release fire oriented spells. As the persons cultivation
deepened, the ling power inside the body would automatically become fire element energies. Fire
element energy was purer than fire oriented ling power, and after continuous processing, it would
become even more pure. At the end, it would form a fire element source that would emanate
from his entire body.
Zuo Mo was still at the stage that he could only turn ling power into five element ling power.
But as long as there was five element energy inside the Five Colored Pagoda, he could take it out
and easily cast many kinds of five element spells. The power of these spells would far surpass
the power of spells he could cast by himself.
The only thing he found pitiful was that the five element energies in the Five Colored Pagoda did
not replenish after use. It needed him to continuously replenish it. Only after it was completed
and could form the five element sources would it naturally produce five element energies. That
was as far away from Zuo Mo like the stars in the sky.
Zuo Mos calculations were extremely abnormal.
He was calculating how much five element energy a spell would require, then he would turn the
equivalent of the amount of five element energy into third-grade ling grass, then the ling grass
into jingshi
F***! So expensive!
Zuo Mos hand shook from heartache. He instantly decided that he would not use the five
element energies inside the pagoda unless he really had to.
These days, even good talismans were this expensive! He could afford to buy it, but not use it.

But even so, the Five Colored Pagoda was very useful for Zuo Mo. He could use it to increase
his control over the five elements. It could be used in ling farming, dan-making, forging and
formations.
A pretty good little thing. Pu Yao suddenly sneaked out. Looking at the Five Colored Pagoda
in Zuo Mos hands, his expression was not good.
He he Zuo Mos hairs stood as Pu Yao looked at him, shamefaced. However, his hands
were not slow and threw the pagoda into the dimensional ring.
Not bad, you even have a dimensional ring now. Pu Yaos tone became even more unfriendly.
He finally realized why there was no more jingshi.
This is an investment for making jingshi in the future. Without investments, how will anything
be produced! Zuo Mo blathered on, his heart having a bad feeling.
It seemed you are very unsatisfied with me. Pu Yaos face suddenly calmed down and he
started to slowly pick at his fingernails.
Those barefoot were not afraid of those wearing shoes
The penniless Zuo Mo told himself this and his courage rose: Its because what you give me
each time sucks!
Sucks? Pu Yaos expression was spectacular, and dumbstruck.
It would have been better not to mention it. Once the topic came up, the more Zuo Mo thought,
the angrier he got. He jumped up and started cursing as he pointed at Pu Yaos nose: You even
have the face to mention it? When did you give something good? [Embryonic Breathing Spiritual
Cultivation] almost cause ge to lose my little life! What yao seed and mo matrix, it caused ges
ling power to not grow anymore! [Fragrance Knowledge], knowledge my ass! That yin bead, a
bunch of jindan almost skinned ge, and cooked ges bones into soup! You are a fraudulent
merchant! Your goods are crap
Pu Yao stared, dumbstruck, at the infuriated Zuo Mo.
Translator Ramblings: Zuo Mo is super lucky and also fed up. He really got one over Pu Yao this
time. More magic theory in this chapter.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Thirty Two


Healing Wounds

This chapter has been brought to you by me, and WanderingGummiOfDoom.


Chapter One Hundred and Thirty Two Healing Wounds
As Zuo Mo stormed and raged and swore, Pu Yao was left completely struck dumb.
They arent crap Pu Yao dumbly wanted to explain.
If they arent crap, then what are they? Zuo Mo glared.
Realizing that he had been suppressed by Zuo Mos presence, Pu Yao instantly became irritated.
His right eye narrowed, revealing an extremely long red blade. In a cold voice, he said, Oh,
what do you want to say?
Zuo Mo couldnt help but stop breathing. Meeting Pu Yaos cold and strange gaze, he instantly
shrunk back, I I just meant you have to give me things that dont have side
effects
I am yao. Pu Yao said faintly, The road that I understand is different from you xiuzhe. It is
normal to have side effects.
Pu Yaos meaning was extremely clear. He could not be blamed for the side effects. He was also
stating that the things he would give in the future will also have side effects.
If Pu Yao decided to be unreasonable, Zuo Mo could do nothing about it. The two were vastly
different in power and, naturally, their right to speak was not equal.
Zuo Mo could only choose to remain silently defiant.
Pu Yaos gaze became even more unfriendly. Zuo Mo could only bear it. He knew that if he
capitulated each time, his position in Pu Yaos eyes would fall, and his outcome would become
even worse. Power was something that had to be fought for. This could not be avoided, he had to
take a certain degree of risk,.
Facing Zuo Mos stubborn silence, Pu Yao started to have a headache.
To get a horse to run, you had to feed the horse. Zuo Mo, this guy who only had jingshi in his
eyes, and was becoming wiser. It was not possible to trick him like before.
But the time he had

Thinking about that, Pu Yaos mood instantly became irritated. Looking at the person making
trouble for him, he wanted to smash Zuo Mo into smithereens. But he suppressed the impulse in
his heart. His temperament was not good, but he was not dumb.
The scriptures of yaomo, it is not strange that humans would have problems practicing it. The
viciousness in Pu Yaos eyes gradually faded, and his tone resumed its habitual peace. However,
I do have some xiuzhe scriptures in my possession. In the future, the rewards will be for these
scriptures. You cannot blame me if there are side-effects then.
Zuo Mo was happy, but he still corrected, Its transactions! Transactions and rewards were two
completely different concepts. A transaction meant that he was owed something, but if it was a
reward then the meaning was different.
Up to you. Pu Yaos face was unconcerned. Inside, his head hurt even more. Zuo Mo was
becoming harder to deal with.
However, you need to be quicker! Pu Yaos tone became extremely dissatisfied, The speed
you make jingshi is too slow. I need more jingshi!
I am a zhuji cultivator. Zuo Mo had to emphasize reality.
Pu Yao choked on Zuo Mos words. He knew that Zuo Mo had been bothered by the fact his
cultivation was not increasing. What Zuo Mo said was the truth. In the ranks of zhuji xiuzhe,
there would not be many that could make more jingshi than he did.
This guy that was so enthusiastic about making jingshi, but was also stubborn in his bones, Pu
Yao didnt know what to do. If he switched to another person, truthfully, Pu Yao felt that they
wouldnt be better than him. This guy was a natural at making jingshi. Pu Yao found that Zuo Mo
was extremely sensitive to everything related to him. Zuo Mo knew when to fight for himself but
not enrage the other party, he knew when to compromise. He was a smart individual.
Oh, even among the yao, there were not many as smart as him.
The potential that Zuo Mo had displayed was gradually changing Pu Yaos opinion. He suddenly
remembered that a certain person had selected Zuo Mo from the beginning and his mood
dropped like he had eaten a mosquito.
Giving a cold snort, he disappeared.
Zuo Mo was not puzzled by Pu Yaos sudden appearance and disappearance. Zuo Mo sighed in
relief. It was extremely dangerous to negotiate with Pu Yao. The majority of the time, Pu Yao

was normal, but his temperament was fickle. If Zuo Mowas not careful, his outcome would be
very bad.
Luckily, the result this time was pretty good. He was very satisfied.
However, he temporarily did not need to consider the problem of making jingshi, because he was
penniless. And in front of him, there was still the last round of the Sword Test Conference.
He needed to get Kun Luns beginner formation jade scroll. Even though he had Sus guarantee,
but Zuo Mo still didnt feel secure. There would be one hundred competitors in the last round,
and only ten would pass. It could be seen just how cruel the competition was going to be. Sus
power might be deep, and she would definitely have no problem protecting herself, but if she
was protecting him as well, then it was hard to predict.
It was safer to rely on himself.
He had a general plan in his head. As he thought of this plan, he was full of excitement and
expectancy!
However, right now, he had to suppress the excitement inside and throw the plan to one side.
There was an immediate problem he faced, recovering from his wounds.
In the last match with Chao An, he had won even with a disadvantage, but he had received
serious injuries. After his Masters emergency healing, he had managed to recover greatly.
Originally, Zuo Mo had planned to slowly recover, but who would have thought that the sect
leader suddenly wanted him to attend the free for all round. Now with the jade scroll as an extra
reason, he had to focus on the problem of healing.
His cultivation was far lower than the competition. If his body was not healed, even if Su was
helping, he would not manage to make it to the end.
Of course, the most important part was healing didnt need him to cost any jingshi

Fragrant Ginger Yard, Shi Feng Rong had a cold expression as she stood in front of the medicinal
tub. Zuo Mos entire body was soaked in the medicinal fluid, only his head could be seen.

The black medicinal fluid exuded a noxious odour. Sitting in the tub Zuo Mo naturally received
the brunt of it and became dizzy, Master, whats in here? Why does it smell so bad?
Dont waste your words. Shi Feng Rong said shortly, Channel your ling power. Whenever
she saw Zuo Mo, her anger would well up and couldnt be suppressed. He had such talent, but
didnt like cultivating the sword, and only concentrated on making jingshi! How did she end up
taking such a degenerate and greedy disciple?
Zuo Mo heard the thick dissatisfaction in his Masters voice and instantly became much more
docile.
In reality, he could feel the power in the tub of medicinal fluid. The thick and lively medicinal
power was like countless little worms burrowing into his body. However, this process was not
pleasant. Zuo Mo felt as though he was being pricked by countless needles.
Hearing Master telling him to channel ling power, he slightly paused. Should he start
[Embryonic Breathing Spiritual Cultivation] or [Vajra Profound Sutra]? The thought circled
through his head and he decided on [Vajra Profound Sutra]. The origins of the [Embryonic
Breathing Spiritual Cultivation] technique was unclear. It wouldnt be good if his Master
detected it. He was not afraid of using [Vajra Profound Sutra]. Xin Yan Shibo had given it to him.
Even though the [Vajra Profound Sutra] he was practicing now was the gravestone version, the
difference between the two was only the five phrases.
Once he started [Vajra Profound Sutra], Zuo Mo instantly felt it was different than usual.
The countless tiny medicinal powers seemed to have been attracted by a magnet, turning into
several dozen streams as they moved through the large meridians on Zuo Mos body, and quickly
entered the flow of ling power moving in the channels.
A short time later, Zuo Mo felt all the channels in his body were congested. He was frightened.
He had never encountered a situation like this.
Whoa!
What medicinal fluid was this? It had such a strong power!
Zuo Mo couldnt attend to anything else other than furiously using [Vajra Profound Sutra], doing
his best to spread the remaining medicinal power into the rest of his body. As the medicinal
power spread through the body, it continuously healed Zuo Mos wounds. It was like a large
rainstorm, soaking the dry earth. His wounds greedily absorbed the medicinal power.

Outside the tub, Shi Feng Rong had a concerned expression. Zuo Mos entire face was dark gold,
as though he was painted in gold. At some unknown time, Pei Yuan Ran, Xin Yan and Yan Le
had appeared next to her.
This boy is really strong. Yan Le said in shock, His body cultivation is this strong? Isnt this
the Golden Flesh Clothing?
Xin Yan snorted coldly, He just doesnt like cultivating the sword!
The expression of the others had become instantly ugly.
If Zuo Mos cultivation talent was average, they wouldnt feel this terrible, but he clearly was
extremely talented at cultivation .Anything he practiced, he would progress at lightning speed.
Even the [Vajra Profound Sutra] that had been given to him carelessly, he could silently cultivate
it to the step of Golden Flesh Clothing. But he just had to be uninterested in cultivating the sects
sword. The numerous powerful sword scriptures of the sect were all open to him, but this guy,
after going to look once in the beginning, he hasnt gone back.
How could Pei Yuan Ran and the others feel good?
Im insisting in having him participate in the next round of the Sword Test Conference. This is
to let him understand the true power of sword xiu. Even though Pei Yuan Ran was experienced
in keeping his composure, he was extremely infuriated by Zuo Mo, Ive already told Wei Sheng
to do his best at the conference. Humph, Zuo Mo needs to see what a sword xiu is, and why
sword xiu are the strongest xiuzhe in the world!
Yes! The sects disciple that is not interested in the sects scriptures. If this fact got out, even if
our ancestral masters knew, we would lose face! Yan Le, who usually had a smile on his face,
had a face full of anger.
This cannot be tolerated! Xin Yans face was full of murderous intent.
Shi Feng Rong who had been concerned before said discontentedly, This guy needs to be
taught!
Zuo Mos terrible conduct had caused the upper echelons of Wu Kong Sword Sect to come to a
consensus.
Being focused on channeling ling power, Zuo Mo paid attention to nothing else. He had no idea
of what was being said in front of him. His entire consciousness, all the ling power, they were
completely concentrated on controlling the medicinal power. He didnt know what ling grass

Master had added into the medicinal tub this time, but the medicinal power was domineering. He
felt he was going to explode from the medicinal power flooding in!
The speed he tamed the medicinal power was far slower than the speed he was absorbing it.
He gritted his teeth. He knew if he could endure through this little while, he would receive great
profit. He was very familiar with making medicine, he understood that the medicinal power
contained in the ling medicine was limited. As long as he could make it through, he could slowly
absorb the medicinal power inside his body. As the medicinal power burrowed into his body, it
quickly turned to gold dots of light and entered his flesh. Right now, his tendons and flesh were
all gleaming with gold light. The dots of gold light embedded in his flesh became even more
populous.
But the rate that the gold light increased was far slower than the rate of increase in the medicinal
power.
What Zuo Mo felt panicked about was that the medicinal power did not show any signs of
slowing down, and was as still domineering as before!
The medicinal power was like a flood, furiously flowing into his body.
His channels were filled to the brim, but the medicinal power was still pouring into his body
uncontrollably. His channels enlarged, the change obvious to the naked eye.
What Zuo Mo felt fear about was that he could not stop!
The flowing ling power and the medicinal power mixed together and was like a wild horse that
went off its reins. It couldnt be stopped!
Damn it!
Translator Ramblings: Pu Yao has his own things going on Zuo Mo is getting better at
bargaining! Pu also realizes that Zuo Mo isnt as bad as he could be and is a pretty good
money-making machine.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Thirty


Three Pei Yuan Rans Bad Mood
This chapter has been brought to you by me, and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter One Hundred and Thirty Three Pei Yuan Rans Bad Mood

Hes actually making another breakthrough? Yan Le gaped at Zuo Mo sitting in the medicinal
tub. Then he said to himself, tilting his head, Hmm, why did I use another?
No one minded him. Everyones face was heavy as they looked at Zuo Mo.
The gold light on Zuo Mos gold face was even brighter. The light rippled in layers like waves.
Starting from the roots, his hair started to turn gold. His body was slightly trembling, as though
he was under great pain. The dissatisfaction on Shi Feng Rongs face flew away. What took over
it was generous concern.
What stage is after Golden Flesh Clothing in [Vajra Profound Sutra]? Pei Yuan Ran asked.
Xin Yan wielded his words like gold, Red Lotus Flowing Gold.
Body cultivation Pei Yuan Ran seemed to be recalling something, Which level can it
naturally form abhinna?
Fifth. Xin Yan answered.
So the fifth level. Pei Yuan Ran nodded, indicating he understood.
With his speed, it wont be long before he reaches the fifth level. Yan Le inserted. Im very
curious if this boy reaches the fifth level, what kind of abhinna he will form.
The others did not say anything. They were all unfamiliar with body cultivation.
The entire realm of Kun Lun was the dominion of sword xiu. Sword xiu only cultivated the
sword, and did not ask about anything else. Those skilled in body cultivation were the Dhyana,
and the realm of Xuan Kong was the holy ground of the Dhyanathe.
The Dhyana xiu was another major kind of xiuzhe. Their main focus was on cultivating the body,
emphasizing their sense of self. In terms of progression difficulty, the most difficult would
probably be the Dhyana xiu. However, the scriptures of the Dhyana were clear and simple, and
was extremely easy for beginners to learn. As long as they had the perseverance, the majority
would accomplish something. However, the tradeoff was that even though it was easy in the
beginning but it become harder to progress. The further along in cultivation one went, the harder
it was to cultivate, and more perseverance and comprehension was required to achieve greater
things.
But to be able to cultivate to the fourth level as fast as Zuo Mo did, that kind of talent was very
rare.

What made people most wary about the Dhyana were the abhinna. The abhinna were abilities
that naturally formed after one cultivated to a certain level. Other xiu admired and envied this
attribute very much. As long as the level was reached, they would always receive an abhinna.
However, this abhinna would differ between people. Some had tried to find patterns in the
abhinna, but up until now, no one had managed to predict the mechanisms.
But even if Zuo Mo could cultivate to the fifth level of [Vajra Profound Sutra], and form an
abhinna, Pei Yuan Ran and the others wouldnt be happy.
They were sword xiu!
If the Dhyana could be described as peaceful, then sword xiu were mostly haughty and puritan.
They only believed in their sword. As the xiuzhe who had the greatest attack power, the sword
xiu did have the capital to be proud. The bigger and more known sects, the clearly this attribute
could be seen.
Wu Kong Sword Sect might only be a little minor sect right now, but the ancestral master had
been renowned. There was still quite a difference compared to the normal minor sects. Pei Yuan
Ran and the others didnt even put any importance on other sects, how could they not look down
at any cultivation method other than cultivating the sword?
The more Zuo Mo achieved in body cultivation, the worse they felt.
The black medicinal fluid gradually became clear. Zuo Mo gradually stopped trembling, his dark
golden face now seemed more solid. Before, it had seemed like there had been a layer of dark
gold plated onto his face, but now, it was like his face was made out of dark gold.
It was still that expressionless face, but there was now an unspeakable dignity.
Pei Yuan Ran and the others expressions became even uglier. If it wasnt that Zuo Mos talent
was exceptional, and he was also the sects disciple, they would have already kicked him off the
mountain.
Zuo Mo opened his eyes and saw the four elders standing in a row in front of him, their eyes
unfriendly as they looked at him. The joy from breaking through to the four level of [Vajra
Profound Sutra] was still in his chest, but the ugly expressions of the four elders pulled him back
to reality.
He didnt know how he had enraged the sect leader and the others, but he knew he shouldnt
pour oil into the fire. The less said, the less the wrong, if he didnt say anything, he could not
commit any wrongs. He perceptively closed his mouth.

Arlight, your wounds have pretty much healed. For you, your master had spent a lot of effort.
You need to perform well, and not fail the expectations your master has of you. This Sword Test
Conference, if you do not enter the top ten, you can go to your Second Shibo to be punished.
The sect leader humphed and threw down the sentence before striding off.
Second Shibo punishment
Zuo Mos gaze couldnt help but turn to Second Shibo. Seeing the cold light flickering in Second
Shibos eyes, even though he was in the boiling hot medicinal water, he felt as though he was
freezing.
Even Master and Yan Le Shibo left without a word.
Zuo Mo didnt understand. What had happened?
But no matter how much he thought, he could not figure out what had happened. He quickly
pushed the question to one side because he suddenly remembered the last words the sect leader
had left.
The top ten
Was the sect leader drunk? Or had he heard it wrong? Zuo Mo sat dazedly in the tub, unable to
react for a long time.

Dong Fu, the night was coming. The multi-colored light of the lanterns seemed to fill every
corner of Dong Fu. The Dong Fu that had become prosperous like it never had before due to the
Sword Test Conference had not calmed down as the night came. It was still lively as ever. The
cries and slogans mixed together. The light of swords and talismans flew above the sky, and the
howls of some ling beasts passed into the ears of those near.
Why has Sir stopped me? A plainly dressed xiuzhe asked sternly of a white-clothed male in
front of him.
The white-clothed male faintly responded, You are not Wei Ping. It was the Lin Qian that Zuo
Mo had encountered at the Hundred Treasures Flying Pavilion.
This xiuzhe suddenly smiled, Sir really is funny. Who am I if not Wei Ping?

You have to ask my sword. Lin Qian lightly sighed.


Wei Pings expression changed dramatically, revealing a viciousness. A faint purple elemental
smoke appeared on his hands suddenly which shot towards Lin Qian.
A streak of sword light!
The sharp sword light moved like it did not encounter any resistance, easily cutting the light
purple elemental smoke in half and headed for Wei Ping.
Argh!
Wei Pings eyes widened angrily, given an in-human howl. His body suddenly expanded in size!
Pew!
The sword light suddenly accelerated. Wei Pings eyes bulged and then the howls suddenly
stopped.
On his chest, there was a small hole. What was weird was that not a drop of blood had flowed
out.
The tenth one. Lin Qian said lightly, his gaze full of worry.

A residence in Dong Fu.


Old Luo is dead.
Have we found who did it?
Same as before, killed by a single sword stroke. It should be the same person. Someone has
locked onto us.
Thats not strange. The noise from the Stars in Daytime was too large, it could not be concealed.
Have our affairs made any progress?

Nothing. If it really is a certain personage, they would certainly be thinking of ways to contact
us. Could it be
Dont think nonsense. The Stars in Daytime cannot be faked. Even though I do not know what
the personage is thinking, but we need to fulfill our duty.
Yes.
Continue to pay attention. You guys need to carefully conceal yourself. Only you few have been
able to sneak in. It will take a few months until the next group will arrive. Right now, the
situation in Bloody Sky Metropolis Jie is shifting. We need to find this personage quickly!
Yes!

In a little store, Zuo Mo was in discussion with Su. Since Su was promising that he could enter
the top ten, it would really be disadvantageous for himself if he didnt use it. But when they
entered the Great Pine Pavilion, their starting position would be random. No one knew where
they would end up.
This information had been provided to Zuo Mo by Su. It was very clear that she felt that, as long
as she gave Zuo Mo enough information, Zuo Mo would be able to find a way to resolve this.
The match between Zuo Mo and Chao An had fully proven his abilities in this area.
Zuo Mo went over all the questions about the Great Pine Pavilion in great detail. Because he had
not been concerned with the Sword Test Conference in the beginning, he didnt even have the
most basic information, and he was very attentive.
It had to be said that Zuo Mo was a very practical person. Once he was certain that he needed to
fight for victory, he would think of all the possible ways.
It is very simple to communicate. We only need to make two paper cranes, one for each of use.
We can carve a yin and yang guiding formation on the paper for the crane, and that will allow us
to quickly find each others position. Zuo Mo said shamelessly, Once we enter, I will stay at
my position. You need to find me with the quickest possible speed.

Alight. Su did not hesitate at all, nodding in agreement. However, she was still struck by Zuo
Mos shamelessness. Normal men, including her Shixiong Gu Rong Ping, were full of the desire
to perform in front of her. But Zuo Mo, he was completely shameless in doing nothing, and he
didnt show any unnaturalness when doing it.
After the two finalized the details of communication, Zuo Mo left.
Right after Zuo Mo left, Gu Rong Ping walked out from the back.
Even if you help him, he cant enter the top ten. Gu Rong Ping said with certainty.
You want to be enemies with me? Su said icily.
How could I? Gu Rong Ping said with a smile. He gave a light laugh, This Sword Test
Conference, the young experts of all of Sky Moon Jie is gathered here. He might be talented, but
he does not have enough power.
So what? Sus voice was still cold. However, she did know she was being stubborn. She also
knew that Shixiong was waiting for her to beg him.
She stayed silent.
Gu Rong Ping glanced at her before standing and leaving.
Even with Sus help, Zuo Mo was certain his chances of entering the top ten were still
minuscule. He was the weakest person of the competitors entering the Great Pine Pavilion. Any
competitor that saw him was not going to be nice.
He was like the fat little sheep that entered crossed paths with pride of the lions!
However, when he thought about his plan
Zuo Mo was full of anticipation!

Wu Kong Mountain.

Did you hear? The sect leader ordered Zuo Shixiong to enter the top ten! Otherwise, he needs to
go Xin Yan Shishu to get punished!
Heavens! Xin Yan Shishu? Is the sect leader finding Zuo Shixiong an eyesore recently? It would
be better if he sent a direct punishment.
Right. That is too unrealistic.
Oh, offending the sect leader. Zuo Shixiong will not have good days.

When Xiao Guo heard the gossip, it was as though something was blocked inside her heart. It
had been quite a few days since she had seen Zuo Shixiong. Ever since Zuo Shixiong came back
from the outside last time, he had shut himself in the valley and hadnt come out since.
A hint of worry flashed through her eyes.
What she was worried about was not that Shixiong would be punished. She was an inner sect
disciple and clearly understood to the position that Shixiong had with the sect leader. The
punishment would not be major. What she was worried about was the Shixiong would risk his
life for this. She knew that Shixiong looked as though he only cared about making jingshi, but if
he really wanted to do something, he would put in all his effort.
A serious Shixiong was very scary but if he was injured due to it
Xiao Guo bit her lips.
Translator Ramblings: Zuo Mo is having such good progress, just not in the direction that his
elders want. More things are happening behind the scenes. Zuo Mos Stars In Daytime is still
causing waves.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Thirty


Four Before The Battle

Chapter One Hundred and Thirty Four Before The Battle
After two rounds of competition, with the exception of Zuo Mo, all the remaining participants
were crowd favorites and were highly ranked in the power rankings. The experts that everyone

favored all easily defeated the competition. Those matches might have been good, but they didnt
excite the audience.
Everyones focus was on the last round of competition, the free for all round.
Of one hundred xiuzhe, only ten would win. There were no rules, or protocols. The Great Pine
Pavilion would become a frenzied battlefield. Only ten would luckily survive.
The fierceness could be predicted, the powerful encounters could not be avoided, and there were
many environmental factors that could be used
How could people not look forward to this competition?
A few days before the final round, Elder Tian Song Zi announced that he was going to set up a
[Mirage Illusion Formation] around the Great Ping Pavilion. When it was time, all the battles
inside the Great Pine Pavilion would be viewed in front of everyone like a mirage.
Once this was announced, all of Dong Fu shook.
A no-rules battle previously had only been the concern of the gamblers because many people
couldnt view it. The most spectacular battle was not interesting if people could not see it, but
Tian Song Zis action quickly attracted every xiuzhes attention. The news was broadcast through
the sound tablet, and the news quickly spread.
Dong Fu suddenly became the center of the entire Sky Moon Jie. Countless xiuzhe, regardless of
cultivation level, travelled day and night, forming lines, as they gathered in Dong Fu.
This, was where the strongest youths of Sky Moon were fighting! This, was the gathering place
of the greatest geniuses of Sky Moon Jie. This, would have Sky Moon Jies grandest spells! This,
would show Sky Moon Jies most cruel and fierce combat!
Such a grand event, how could they miss it? It was such a rare chance to personally see it.
Dong Fu was busier and more prosperous than it ever had been before. All the large sects sent
their disciples to spectate. They might not have the chance to enter the Sword Test Conference,
but it was very beneficial to view the battles and observe how the best of their generation
wielded spells. When xiuzhe faced their enemies, they usually hid everything. To be able to
examine and see it in real-life, no one wanted to miss the opportunity.
The illusory jade scroll of Zuo Mos match with Chao An was now priced at one hundred pieces
of third-grade jingshi. The market had sold out. Many people regretted that they hadnt made
some more illusory jade scrolls at the time. They would have gotten rich! The illusory jade

scrolls of the match had mostly been bought by the larger sects. They were planning to give the
jade scrolls to their disciples that were skilled in formations. It had to be said that the larger sects
were much more sensible.
While the number of illusory scrolls of the following matches were more plentiful, the demand
could not be compared to Zuo Mos match.
The little Dong Fu was filled with all kinds of xiuzhe. Many xiuzhe saw the opportunity and
started to do business. Some put out the talismans and materials they did not need to exchange or
sell. Some started a business of buying low and selling high. Dong Fu had over night, become
the biggest and most prosperous market in Sky Moon Jie.

Wu Kong Hall, Wei Sheng and the sect leader sat across from each other.
How is it? The sect leader said with a small smile, You didnt meet a strong opponent for your
first two matches, are you disappointed? You must be looking forward to the next round very
much.
This disciple is looking forward to it. Wei Sheng said honestly, he was unable to hide the
excitement in his eyes, To be able to fight with so many experts, it really makes my blood
boil!
The sect leader nodded in praise. In the eyes of the elders of Wu Kong Sword Sect, Wei Sheng
had almost all the good attributes that a sword xiu should have. His personality was steady and
determined, he worked hard at his cultivation, and his mind and heart were pure. He was
completely dedicated towards the sword. Almost no one could compare to his talent with the
sword. Facing this battle, Wei Sheng was full of the desire for battle, not afraid in the least. He
did not hide from anything, and did not panic at obstacles.
Thinking about talent, Pei Yuan Ran couldnt help but think of Zuo Mo. In all the disciples of the
sect, the only person that could match Wei Sheng in talent would probably only be Zuo Mo. But
when he thought of this problematic youth, his brow unconsciously furrowed.
Detecting his Masters vexation, Wei Sheng couldnt help but ask in curiosity, Has Master
encountered something? Even though in the elders of the sect, the one with the deepest
cultivation had to be Xin Yan Shishu, but Masters power was also incomprehensibly deep. Wei

Shengs cultivation was far stronger than before. Whenever he felt the strong presence that
Master occasionally exuded, he felt afraid.
Something that even Master found difficult, what could that be?
Noticing his loss of composure, Pei Yuan Ran waved his hand. Nothing. Afterwards, he
deliberated and softly said, That boy, Zuo Mo, he must be cursing me inside. I sent a death
order demanding he enter the top ten. He suddenly thought of something, and said teasingly, I
heard that there are many people in Dong Fu right now. Ying Feng hasnt been able to rest at all.
All the inventory in the shop has been sold out. If the boy knew that he missed such a good
opportunity to make jingshi, he would probably spit blood.
Hearing Masters light teasing, Wei Sheng relaxed. When he thought about his shidis obsession
with money, he laughed, This disciple feels the latter is a heavier blow to Shidi.
Haha! Thinking about the problem that Zuo Mo had given him recently, now that he got one
over the boy, Pei Yuan Ran felt extremely good. Your shidi, he might have good talent, but his
personality is too lazy. If he landed in jingshi, he will not come out and he has no interest in
cultivating the sword.
Shidi will definitely understand the efforts of Master and the shishu. Wei Sheng said. He was
helpless against his shidi as well. He knew that Zuo Mos personality was so, and he could not
force it.
Your Xin Yan Shibo has prepared an entire regimen of punishment and is just waiting for the
boy to come. Thinking about it, Pei Yuan Ran couldnt help but be slightly smug.
Based on cultivation, Zuo Mo could not enter the top ten no matter what he did. However, in this
world, strength was not everything, and Wei Sheng knew very well that this shidi of his was
cunning and would have many tricks up his sleeve. He understood Shidi better than his master
and the others. Shidi might seem lazy on the surface, but he was abnormally stubborn in his
bones, which bordered on insanity. The other people only saw Shidis talent, but only he
suspected the amount of effort Shidis Little Art of Cloud and Rain had required to reach the
fourth level.
The practice of any spell was not just possible with talent.
However, this was only his gut instinct. If he said so to Master, there was no proof and it would
not be effective. He was also curious how his Shidi, when forced into the corner, would react?
From the fact that Shidi had been in seclusion since Wei Sheng came back, he knew that Shidi
was serious.

Shidi was like a slack and loose spring. The more he was compressed, the stronger the explosive
power. A serious Shidi could not be underestimated.
Suddenly, he felt another kind of expectation towards the upcoming Sword Test Conference.
Noticing the anticipation in Wei Shengs eyes, Pei Yuan Ran mistakenly assumed Wei Sheng was
thinking of the Sword Test Conference. Thinking about the things he and his shidi had done
when young, he started to reminisce. He refocused, and asked gravely, Who do you plan to find
to be your opponent?
Hearing this, light flashed through Wei Shengs eyes. He unconsciously sat straighter, heavily
stating three words.
Gu Rong Ping!

The Little West Wind Yard.


Zuo Mos hair was a mess as he sat on the ground, his eyes bloodshot as they stared fixedly in
front of him.
Not right
Still not right

His mouth unconsciously muttered to himself. Materials were scattered as they laid before him,
yet those materials seemed to have an unspeakable magnetism, attracting his gaze.
Under the tangle of hair, that pair of bloodshot eyes flashed with a nimble light.
Hmm
Suddenly, his eyes lit up!

Luo Li sat on the mountain peak, looking at the bright moon as his thoughts wandered.
Shidi, you are still angry at me? Hao Min bit her lips and said pitifully.
Luo Li did not turn his head, saying lightly, Shijie exaggerates. My heart only has the sword, no
anger.
Hao Mins breathing stopped. She didnt know what to say. After Luo Li had been wounded by
Zuo Mo, she had not even visited once. But who could know that Luo Li had seemed to be
reborn, fighting his way into the last round of the Sword Test Conference. The entire Wu Kong
Sword Sect was looking at him again. Hao Min had been reminded of his good qualities from the
past, and wanted to get together again, but Luo Li looked at her like he was looking at a stranger.
Shidi truly does not care about our past feelings? Hao Min made a last effort.
There had been no feelings before. Luo Lis answer was straightforward and crisp without any
disguise, Its late. Shijie, please return.
Hearing Hao Min cry as she left, under the moonlight, Luo Li started to practice the sword.
Under the moonlight, the sword light seemed to contain a faint sorrow.

Dong Fu Hall, Tian Song Zi looked at his beloved disciple, slight comfort and satisfaction in his
eyes. He said warmly, The rank is not important, it is intangible. What is most important is
comprehension, of fighting with different people, of facing different spells, of ambushes, and of
melee fighting. You will encounter them in the future, and also in this competition.
Yes. Yu Bai respectfully answered with his head down.
Do you have a potential opponent? Tian Song Zi asked.
This disciple wants to spar with Zong Ming Yan.

Tian Song Zi suddenly furrowed his brows, and said irritably in a deep voice, This is not a spar,
it is a fight, it is a battle!
He didnt know why his Master was suddenly so angry. Yu Bai said slightly fearful, Yes.
Tian Song Zi waved his hand. Go, prepare well. Zong Ming Yan could receive Zuo Mei Tians
true teachings, he will not be weak.
Yes. Yu Bai hesitated before leaving.
Looking at his most loved disciple, Tian Song Zi suddenly sighed silently, a deep worry floating
up in his eyes.

Ling Ying Sect.

The sect leader looked at Chang Heng standing in front of him. He was slightly irritated. Chang
Hengs temper was rebellious. Looking at him carelessly standing, without any of the required
respect, the dislike in the sect leaders heart became stronger.
Chang Heng might be the most outstanding of the Ling Ying Sect disciples, but he was never
liked by the elders.
Humph, Chang Heng, if you meet Wu Kong Sword Sects Zuo Mo this time, do not let him go.
The sect leader said hatefully, This boy has embarrassed the sect many times, you cannot
release him!
Chang Heng was not affected. His eyes were half-lidded. He actually was sleeping in the hall.
Seeing Chang Heng act like this, the sect leader was even angrier. He raised his volume, Chang
Heng! Have you heard me?
Chang Heng slowly opened his eyes. He glanced at the sect leader, throwing down, Nag! Ill
fight whoever I encounter, theres no trouble.

Finishing, he didnt care about the petrified disciples and the exploding sect leader, freely
leaving.
Translator Ramblings: Everyone is preparing to fight! Everything will now be broadcasted. Realtime TV right here.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Thirty Five


Great Pine Pavilion
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and cactuar0.
Chapter One Hundred and Thirty Five Great Pine Pavilion
Dong Fu Hall was the residence that the Dong Fu Xianren had left behind. It was the most
complete and best residence in Dong Fu. Other than the dense ling energy, there were many
marvelous features to the residence itself, like the Great Pine Pavilion. The Great Pine Pavilion
was similar to Wu Kong Sword Sects sword cave, it was a whole other world. When compared
to the tightly held secret of Wu Kong Sword Sects sword cave, Dong Fu Halls Great Pine
Pavilion was famous.
The world inside the Great Pine Pavilion was high and steep, full of mountainous peaks. The
area was extremely large. Ling beasts were raised by the master of Dong Fu, and it had been this
way in every generation. Most of these were vicious and wild beasts. The disciples of each
generation, after they reached ningmai, would be allowed to gain experience in the Great Pine
Pavilion. This was why in all the casinos, the wagering favored Yu Bai so much. While other
people the Great Pine Pavilion was unfamiliar, to Yu Bai it was his backyard.
A Secret Paradise talisman like the Great Pine Pavilion needed great power to create. Almost all
large sects that had some foundation, when their founders created the sect they would spend
great amounts of power to create a secret world to become the base of their sect. Inside the Great
Pine Pavilion, any battles by xiuzhe under jindan stage, no matter how they fought, there would
cause no damage. Of course, the ling beasts that were being raised there were not immune.
In all of Dong Fu, only Dong Fu Hall and Wu Kong Sword Sect had a Secret Paradise talisman,
but almost none knew about the sword cave of Wu Kong Sword Sect.
The elders and sect leaders of the other sects could only stare with jealous eyes as Tian Song Zi
opened the Great Pine Pavilion. Among them, the sect leader of Ling Ying Sect was especially
jealous. This was an indicator of how deep a sects foundation was. No matter how wealthy Ling
Ying Sect was currently, in the eyes of those slightly high-level xiuzhe, they were just a nouveau
riche sect.

A Secret Paradise talisman was not something that could be bought with jingshi. Other than the
great power it took to create the talisman, it cost a large price. Other than making them for their
own sects, no one would ever make a Secret Paradise talisman to sell.
Pei Yuan Ran and the others were very calm. The secrets of Wu Kong Sword Sects sword cave
was comparable or even better than Great Pine Pavilion. Even when they themselves discussed
the sword cave, they would sigh at the great power of the ancestral founder. The four of them
may be in the stage of jindan and rank among the top experts of Sky Moon Jie, but they did not
have the power to make a Secret Paradise talisman.
The one hundred competitors attending the last round stood there silently, but curiosity came
onto many of their faces. Many of them had never entered a Secret Paradise talisman before, and
were extremely curious. The disciples of larger sects, like Gu Rong Ping, either had a calm face
or were looking arrogantly at the other people, feeling superior to the others.

Around the Great Pine Pavilion, the [Mirage Illusion Formation] slowly activated, the seven
colored light swimming around like countless fishes flying. Slowly, above the Great Pine
Pavilion, a faint image appeared.
The image quickly grew larger and became clear until it covered all of the sky above Dong Fu.
Presented in front of everyone was a serene and peaceful world.
Row after row of mountain peaks with steep slopes that were so elegant as though they were
drawn. Between the mountains, ling beasts could be seen moving.
Such a clear and gigantic illusion, it was very rare to see. Many people sighed in amazement.
The xiuzhe who had come from long off were celebrating that they had made the journey. It was
very rare to see such a spectacular event.
No matter if the people were floating in the sky or on the ground, they could easily see this
gigantic mirage.
At this time, Dong Fu formed an extremely strange spectacle. Countless xiuzhe had packed in the
sky, low and high, some flying around as they adjusted their angle, and sigh with wonder. On the
ground, people took out recliners, some crouched on the rooftops, as they raised their heads to
look at the enormous mirage in the sky.

They were all xiuzhe!


Tens of thousands of xiuzhe were gathered in Dong Fu. Looking from a distance, they appeared
to be packed densely like ants.
Such a grand picture! A non-local elder of a sect couldnt help but praise, Spectacular!
Tian Song Zi really has the breadth of spirit, no wonder he is the master of Dong Fu. An elder
beside him said, Such a grand event. If this was held every few years, it would be a beneficial
matter!
Thats hard! The number of sects in Sky Moon Jie that have a Secret Paradise talisman can be
counted on the hands. Even if they had one, who would be like Tian Song Zi and bear to let it be
used for a competition?
Exactly! Who doesnt hide the Secret Paradise as deep as they can? It really is the first time
someone has acted this way. I wonder what he is thinking?
Ive seen Tian Song Zi before. Hes not stupid. He definitely has his own thoughts.

As they discussed, the topic of the elders discussion veered off-topic.


Who do you feel is going to win? One of the elders suddenly asked.
Gu Rong Ping!
Gu Rong Ping!
Naturally, it is Gu Rong Ping. Heart Lake Sect has deep foundations and is one of the top sects
in Sky Moon Jie. Gu Rong Ping is one of those genius seen every hundred years. It would be
hard to find someone that could be comparable to him.
Everyone was in consensus on this point.
Other than Gu Rong Ping? An elder who rarely spoke suddenly opened.
That Su is very mysterious and pretty powerful.
Gu Fengs [Little Ghost Sword] is extremely experienced. I favor him.

Wei Shengs two battles were clean and quick. But I havent heard of this Wu Kong Sword Sect.
Its probably a small sect. An elder said hesitantly.
Speaking of this Wu Kong Sword Sect, it should not be underestimated. The three disciples it
has attending the competition all entered the last round.
Hearing this, the elder who was favoring Su sneered, We shouldnt even speak of this matter.
That guy that looks like a zombie had a bye to get into the last round. We can only say this Wu
Kong Sword Sect is on pretty good terms with Tian Song Zi.
Another elder instantly objected, Even though this guys cultivation is a bit low, but hes still
skilled.
The elder that favored Su asked in response, Do you favor him?
Not possible! The elder shook his head. The gap between the stages of ningmai and zhuji is
too large. There is also Chao An as the precedent. When his opponents see him, they would not
be light on their guard. Hes just a zhuji, how many skills can he have? He probably has used up
most of them. His elders must be wanting him to get some experience.
Does someone favor him? The elder that favored Su asked the other people.
Ha ha! If someone favors him, then I would really admire the person!
Ha ha

The crowd of elders discussed interestedly. The ones of the same sect would communicate and
see if there were suitable seedlings.

Between the xiuzhe, Zuo Mo turned his head around and looked. Even though his zombie face
was expressionless, but curiosity flashed in his eyes.
Privately, he was conversing with Pu Yao.

Pu, if you compare this Great Pine Pavilion to the sword cave, which one is better?
All trash. Pu Yaos voice was full of disdain.
Zuo Mo instantly was speechless and rolled his eyes. With the same tone, he shot back, Arent
you a Sky Yao? Can you make one?
Pu Yao did not know shame. I play with things that should not be played with. This is not
interesting.
Zuo Mo finally knew why he was only a zhuji xiuzhe and Pu Yao was a Sky Yao. This was a
direct ratio to the thickness of the face.
Hmm, he suddenly noticed that Gu Rong Ping seemed to have swept a look in his direction.
Even though Gu Rong Ping had disguised it well, but Zuo Mo sensitively caught the strange
emotions contained in that look.
No way!
Such a little person as him was not worthy of Gu Rong Pings interest. It must have been that he
sensed it wrong.
Careful! Pu Yao suddenly said heavily.
Zuo Mo paused. What is it?
Just now, someone used a detection spell.
Detection spell? Zuo Mo was dumb, and then said in shock. No way!
He was preparing to look around when Pu Yao immediately shouted, Dont look!
Zuo Mo instantly didnt dare to move, obediently standing on his spot. He rarely saw Pu Yao this
nervous, as though he was facing a great enemy.
Someone had used a detection spell. He deliberately pretended to casually sweep across the
surroundings. No one seemed to be behaving strangely. Even Gu Rong Ping didnt seem to detect
that someone had just used a detection spell.
Zuo Mo was shocked. To be able to use a detection spell on this many people, but no one had
discovered it, the casters cultivation must be terrifying!

Humph, it seems someone is targeting me. Pu Yao snorted coldly, but there was no fear in his
words.
How do you know it is to catch you? Zuo Mo reflexively followed up.
Isnt it just the [Fire Eye]? Ive encountered it a few times before. Pu Yaos tone turned colder,
filled with dislike. Its just as bothersome as the Dhyanas [Sky Eye] abhinna!
Hearing such hate filled words, then thinking of Pu Yaos tendency to want to get even, Zuo Mo
didnt even need to think to know that Pu Yao had definitely suffered before due to this spell. He
instantly became nervous. Has the other found you?
Hearing this, Pu Yao instantly became smug. He snickered, That person would never think that I
am in your sea of consciousness. This fire eye might be powerful, but it can only detect the
energy of yaomo. Dont worry, as long as you act normal, the other would never think of it.
Thats good. Zuo Mos heart landed.
Just at this time, Tian Song Zi stood up. All the eyes gathered on his body.
Tian Song Zi was very good at keeping his composure. He didnt seem to notice as he said
calmly, Prepare now. I will now send you into the Great Pine Pavilion.
Finishing, he started to cast a spell. His legs stood steadily, ling power spraying out of his lightly
moving palms.
Everyone suddenly found the average looking figure of Tian Song Zi suddenly became towering
figure, like a millennia old pine tree, weathered yet strong. His legs seemed to reach deep into
the ground like countless roots, steady as a rock, unmoved by wind or rain. The rippling pressure
almost covered all of Dong Fu.
Other than the jindan xiuzhe that were calm, the xiuzhe under the stage of jindan, even Gu Rong
Ping who really conducted himself elegantly, changed expression. Yu Bai looked with a hot
expression at Master, his heart filled with pride. Wei Sheng seemed to be affected. There was no
retreat on his face. He raised his head, the light in his eyes bursting, the two hands by his side
unconsciously turning to fists.
Wow, such a powerful old man! Zuo Mo gaped inside. But comparing Tian Song Zi and Second
Shibo, he still felt that Second Shibo was more scary.
Ho!

Tian Song Zi bellowed.


Countless lights rose up under the feet of the one hundred xiuzhe. The light flashed, and they
disappeared.
Translator Ramblings: I dont get the elders sometimes and what Wu Kong Sword Sect did
in the past. Remaining so low-key until now if Zuo Mo hadnt ended getting picked up by
Pei Yuan Ran, Wei Sheng wouldnt have had an apparition, and then seriously, Wu Kong
Sword Sect has enough assets to rival Dong Fu Hall.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Thirty Six


Heart Turn Sword Essence
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and cactuar0.
Chapter One Hundred and Thirty Six Heart Turn Sword Essence
Zuo Mo felt his vision blur, a strong feeling of dizziness making him almost unable to keep
upright.
A gust of cold wind blew into his face. He quickly refocused. Of course, he couldnt help but
complain inside that the comfort of Tian Song Zis transportation spell was lacking compared to
Pu Yaos transportation formation. He glanced at the surroundings. What entered his eyes were
all old trees. Occasionally, the wind would blow past, and he could smell water.
There was a source of water nearby!
Zuo Mos mind became alert. The power of water was strong near water sources. It was
extremely useful for him.
After Zuo Mo cast a hiding spell, he carefully walked in the direction of water. The spells in the
jade scrolls of Elder Wei Nan proved to be useful. Like this spell that concealed his figure, it was
very effective. If ningmai xiuzhe didnt pay close attention, they would have a difficult time
detecting him.
In all of the five element spells, Zuo Mos skill was the best with the [Little Art of Cloud and
Rain] and he was most sensitive to the power of water. After walking about fifty paces, he found
the source of water.
A water pond about half a mu large with weeds growing along the edges. The excrement of ling
beasts could be seen everywhere.

Zuo Mo carefully inspected the surroundings. He was very satisfied. It seemed that his luck had
been very good this time. But he still warily scanned the surroundings with his consciousness.
He didnt put out the paper crane immediately to report his location to Su.
Strong Warrior Protect Master!
The figure of a golden giant started to appear behind Zuo Mo. The golden shadow quickly
became tangible. A gigantic soldier wearing golden armor stood proudly.
Only now did Zuo Mo release a breath.
With this seal soldier, his safety could be guaranteed to a certain degree. It was usually ningmai
that used seal soldiers. Only those xiuzhe that were very wealthy, like the Wang Shixiong of Ling
Ying Sect, would be able to use seal soldiers when they were only in the stage of zhuji. Actually,
this seal soldier had been given to Wang Shixiong by his family to use when his life was in
danger. It was just that he had been threatened by Zuo Mo and he had panicked, using this seal
soldier. He had not won, and even paid up the seal soldier to Zuo Mo.
Zuo Mos eyes glowed as they looked at the dignified armored seal soldier. His heart was full of
regret. It was a pity that after being used this time, this seal soldier would be useless. In Dong Fu,
compared to those that made dan, or forged, the xiuzhe that understood seals were even more
rare. There wasnt even one person that had the power to create seals as powerful as this seal
soldier. He didnt know where Wang Shixiongs elders had bought this seal soldier.
With the protection of the seal soldier, his confidence rose. However, he still did not release the
paper crane in his possession.
He thought about the plan that he had spent so much effort on. On the wooden and frozen face,
pride flashed through his eyes.
This last round was a free for all round. There were no rules. The last ten xiuzhe that were
remaining in the Great Pine Pavilion were the last winners.
Zuo Mo decided to utilize this rule to the fullest!
It was a pity that his concealment spells were not outstanding. Otherwise, he could just find a
place and conceal his presence. That way, his chances of winning would be greater. He could
think of this, and other people also would. He suddenly thought about the [Fire Eyes] that Pu Yao
mentioned today. If someone really knew [Fire Eyes], it was useless to hide.
Hue hue, all of you definitely dont know what ge is planning.

Zuo Mo was full of motivation!

In the sky above Dong Fu, the gigantic mirage clearly showed every change inside the Great
Ping Pavilion.
Seeing the competitors appear on the mirage, the spectators instantly became alert, and praised
the wonders of the [Mirage Illusion Formation]!
Those that were watching in groups fixed their eyes on the mirage as they discussed.
Who do you think will get first? Yan Ming Zi asked.
Hu Shan shook his head. I dont know. Maybe Gu Rong Ping. Hes just too powerful!
Tao Zhu Er suddenly pointed to the most prominent main peak in the mountain range depicted in
the mirage, shouting, Look!
At the same time, many xiuzhe found two people on the main peak. The discussion was like the
retreating tide, quickly disappearing.
Everyones eyes gathered onto the main peak.
There were fifteen great peaks that touched the clouds in the Great Pine Pavilion, and among
them, the central main peak was the most prominent. It was extremely steep, like a gigantic
sword cleaving the clouds.
On the main peak, two people were standing.
Gu Rong Ping and Wei Sheng!
The person who was predicted to win first in this Sword Test Conference, Gu Rong Ping!
The person who had an apparition when he entered zhuji, Wei Sheng!
No one had thought that those two people would appear at the same position. The competition
had just started, and it had entered a peak, it was out of everyones expectations!

At the same time, many of the competitors inside the Great Pine Pavilion noticed the two people
on the main peak. The two of them were like two swords, without any disguise or concealment as
they stood proudly. Many people couldnt help but release a breath. Those two were opponents
none of them wanted to meet.

Through the black gauze, Su gazed at Gu Rong Ping standing on the peak. Her heart relaxed
slightly. What she had been most worried about was that Shixiong would encounter Zuo Mo.
Shixiong definitely wouldnt give Zuo Mo a chance and show any mercy. Because she hadnt
begged him.
But that guy, why hadnt he sent out the paper crane?
She suddenly turned her body.

On the main peak, the wind was very strong.


Didnt think that I would encounter Brother Wei so soon. It really is a surprise to me. Gu Rong
Ping said with a smile.
Wei Shengs expression was solemn. He did not speak, the desire for battle rising in his eyes. At
some time, Splitting Rainbow sword had appeared in his hands. The air around his body seemed
to have been pushed by an invisible hand, slowly spinning around him. A traceless yet pressuring
presence, with him at the center, rippled out.
The smile on Gu Rong Pings face disappeared.
His eyes could see Wei Sheng in front of him, but in his spiritual perception, where Wei Sheng
was standing, there was not a person!
It was an empty space, but there was sword essence!

The xiuzhe in Dong Fu conversed, their faces puzzled. What they were seeing was out of their
comprehension, yet among the sect leaders and elders of the various sects, it exploded.
Who told me Wu Kong Sword Sect is a small sect? Wei Shengs sword scripture definitely is
above fifth-grade!
Heart Turn Sword Essence! The next step would be Metamorphosis! Heavens! What kind of
monster is Wei Sheng? How old is he?
Wu Kong Sword Sect is going to rise. This boys future is limitless!
Impossible! Impossible! How is it possible
I heard when this boy was entering zhuji, an apparition of sword energy had appeared. I had
thought it was just a rumor but seeing him now, its probably the truth!

The faces of Pei Yuan Ran and the other three were filled with pride and happiness. Ever since
they discovered Wei Shengs talent, they had put large amounts of effort into him. Almost all the
resources of the sect had been given to him. Xin Yan had taught him step by step. For the first
time, the sword cave had been opened for a disciple. Even the ling food and lingdan that was put
into the sword cave when Wei Sheng had been fighting in the sword cave had been made at the
expense of countless expensive materials. Otherwise, no matter how outstanding Wei Shengs
talent was, he couldnt have broken through to ningmai so quickly.
Seeing the shock that Wei Sheng gave others, the four exchanged smiles. Their hearts were full
of the feeling of accomplishment.
Wu Kong Sword Sect previously did not have any outstanding disciples. That had been a burden
on all of their hearts. It was only when Wei Sheng had appeared that everything had changed.
If people knew how short of a time it took Wei Sheng to go from zhuji to ningmai, they would be
frightened out of their wits. A slight hint of mirth floated on the corner of Pei Yuan Rans mouth.
Sometimes, he would also be frightened by Wei Shengs cultivation speed.

Heart Turn Sword Essence, it was comprehending a deeper level of sword essence. Upon
reaching this stage, the xiuzhe could control the sword essence according to his heart and wishes.
Controlling the sword scripture and controlling the sword essence were two completely different
concepts.
The former could affect the power of the sword essence, the strength of the attack. It required
delicate control of ling power, and the finer it was, the great the power of the sword scripture.
But after one could control a sword scripture perfectly, if they wanted to progress further, they
had to reach Heart Turn sword essence.
Each sword scripture, at the beginning, it was based on the law that xiuzhe that created it had.
For those who came after and learned the scripture, these were different laws. Reaching Heart
Turn Sword Essence, that meant that Wei Sheng had started to comprehend deeper levels of
law. Only by comprehending his own law, could he break through the layers of restrictions
in the sword scripture.
When one reached the Metamorphosis Sword Essence, it was creating ones own law, a law
that belonged to the individual.
This was why when the same sword scripture was practiced by different people to higher levels,
it would differ so much. Normally, the people who could touch this level were xiuzhe entering
jindan. Wei Sheng was a ningmai xiuzhe and had already started to comprehend law. Such
talent, it was terrifying!
Wei Sheng has progressed so fast, it really is the good fortune of the sect! So young and having
reached the level of Heart Turn Sword Essence, even Second Shidi hadnt done the same at that
age. Pei Yuan Ran praised. The four were tired of sitting and fighting with the other sect leaders
so the four took the inner sect disciples to one side to watch the competition.
Li Ying Feng saw the agreement on Second Shibos face, and couldnt help but jump in to say,
Master, so this means that Eldest Shixiong is going to win?
Yan Le shook his head. Not certain.
Isnt Shixiong on a higher level? Li Ying Feng was puzzled.
Yan Le explained, Heart Turn Sword Essence is a transition level and a very unstable level. The
old restrictions have not been completely broken, and the new sword scripture has not formed.
The advantage provided in battle is not always evident. If the heart is uncertain, the power of the
sword scripture would actually decrease.

The disciples of Wu Kong Sword Sect all had ugly expressions. Even Pei Yuan Ran and the
others had left the joy of the previous moment, their expressions serious as they stared at the
mirage.

Zuo Mos cultivation was a pitiful zhuji stage. His eyes naturally couldnt compare to those
ningmai xiuzhe, and was unable to notice Wei Sheng Shixiongs battle.
Everything had been thrown far into the back of his mind. With the protection of the seal soldier,
he could put all of his attention onto his plan.
He started to furiously take things out of the dimensional ring.
In the blink of an eye, a small mountain piled up in front of him. A small mountain completely
made up of various materials!
Seeing this pile of materials bought with his pile of jingshi, Zuo Mos heart ached with pain.
Hmm hmm, Ill get all of you to taste the power of jingshi!
It was a pity that everyones eyes at this time were gathered on Wei Sheng and Gu Rong Ping as
they faced off on the main peak. No one noticed, beside a non-descript pond, a certain zombie
was like a laboring ant, slowly moving a mountain made up of materials!
Translator Rambling: Wei Shengs luck is both good and bad. Theres a bit more world-building
and theory on the sword. Its important, it really is. Also, reaction chapter for Wei Sheng, our
deuteragonist!

Seven Each Persons Opponent
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, warlord212 and

Chapter One Hundred and Thirty Seven Each Persons Opponent

Su coldly stared at the thin male in front of her. She recognized him.
Gui Feng, he had unknown origins, skilled in the [Little Ghost Sword], and he had a mysterious
ghost concealment movement method. He was a popular contender of this years Dong Fu Sword
Test Conference.
Gui Feng was dressed in black. She didnt know what material it was made of, but it was dark
and no light reflected off the material. His figure was thin and tall, his hands shriveled like
twigs, his eyes were dark, and his entire body was emanating a dense yin energy.
The two of them werent the type to waste words. As their eyes met, the two made their moves at
the same time.
Sus hand spread slightly, her snow white fingers lightly grasping at the air.
Gui Feng felt the scene in front of him twist slightly, sky and earth spinning, as a feeling of
dizziness came over him.
[Magnet Polarity Sword]!
Even though she held no sword in her hand, but her Magnet Polarity sword essence was still
powerful.
Gui Feng snorted coldly as his dark hawk-like eyes slightly narrowed. He didnt seem to move
but had disappeared from his spot.
Sus hand straighten into sword fingers, swiping at the air beside her side.
A white bone ghost sword suddenly shot out of the air. Gui Fengs sword and Sus fingers
seemed to have made an appointment, strangely crashing together.
Su gave a muffled grunt. Gui Feng had compressed all of the sword essence on the tip of his
sword. Once the sword and her fingers met, she had been disproportionately impacted. The dark
and cold sword essence followed her fingers to enter her body. She felt her body freeze.
The white bone ghost sword was snowy white, made from an unknown bone. The sword guard
was a complete skull, the open mouth perfectly biting on the sword body, four sharp and curved
fangs criss crossing. In the empty eye sockets, two bean-sized ghost fires burned lightly. The
sword grip was made of seven continuous copper coins, wrapped in grass rope.
The name of this white bone ghost sword was not known, but at a glance it could seen that it
was not ordinary.

Behind the black gauze, Su had a slightly angry expression. Having lost the first encounter, this
experience was very rare to her.
She had lost because she did not use her flying sword. Even though she was not willing, she still
took out a black flying sword. She had originally planned on not using a flying sword before her
new flying sword had been forged.
Even though the sword named [Black Daze] in her hand was of high quality, it was not very
suited for her sword scripture.
To a female that was a perfectionist, she was not willing to use a flying sword that was not suited
to her.
What she was furious about was not having lost the encounter, but that the Gui Feng had forced
her to use a flying sword that she didnt want to use.
Once Gui Feng had the advantage, what would follow would be continuous attacks that wouldnt
give her a chance to breathe. Normally, she would slowly wear him down, but today, she still
needed to find Zuo Mo! She didnt have much interest in the Sword Test Conference, but Zuo
Mo entering the top ten impacted the forging of her new flying sword.
She needed to quickly finish the fight!
Gently turning the handle of [Black Daze], the sword tip pointing up, it was held in front of her
body. The surrounding area around her suddenly started to twist. Only Su who was standing at
the very center, was unaffected.
Just at this time, the white and sharp bone sword suddenly stabbed towards Su as it appeared out
of nowhere in front of her.
Su was not moved.
Seeing the other had no intentions to dodge, Gui Feng was slightly surprised, but there was no
hesitation in his bone sword. The skull hilt gave a howl, like countless angry souls wailing,
shocking a persons soul. If this sword met its target, there was no chance of survival.
The speed of the flying sword was extremely quick, arriving in the blink of an eye to touch the
black gauze in front of Sus face. Gui Feng felt slightly joy but also puzzled. Was Su so weak to
be defeated in one blow?

In this Sword Test Conference, there were many experts, and among those favored, the two that
were most mysterious were Gui Feng and Su. Both of them were of unknown origins. No one
had thought the two most mysterious competitors would become opponents.
He hit the target!
Gui Feng was not happy, but shocked. Even though his eyes saw the sword meet the target, but
the bone sword in his hand did not feel as though it had hit anything tangible.
Not good!
With shock, Gui Feng retreated back.
For some reason, the bone sword brushed past a space three cun from Sus gauze. The dark and
cold energy made her feel uncomfortable but she did not even blink.
The Black Daze sword in her hand turned and crossed her chest. Her left hand raised on its own,
she quickly spat out three notes.
She started to counterattack!

Zuo Mo wiped the sweat off his forehead, looking in satisfaction at the formation in front of his
eyes.
He had completely fenced off the half mu of the pond to become the central formation of the
formation. Compared to things like a lake, the water pond had weaker water elemental power,
but it was enough for him. Since it was completely fenced in, he didnt need to worry about other
people damaging it.
Seven palm-sized green flags were on the border of the water pond, responding to each other.
The poles of the seven small flags were made from third-grade Greenwood, and the cloth of the
flag was woven from third grade Sky Silk. With the formations carved in them, the seven
greenwood flags were like seven roots, taking water elemental power from the water pond and
turning it to wood elemental power.

Placed around each greenwood flag were seven second-grade Mini Copper Lionhead Dan
Cauldrons, forming the shape of the Big Dipper, and supporting the greenwood flag, forming a
second-grade [Li Fire Formation].
Beside each of the seven dan cauldrons, there were twelve jade cards scattered around. The
twelve jade cards were connected by an extremely thin red gold thread. A delicate net made from
slender red gold thread entangled the seven copper dan cauldrons. It formed a complete [ThreeTurn Fire Formation].
And the seven by seven, forty nine little dan cauldrons flashed with light as they interacted with
each other, forming another formation [Great Li Fire Formation].
Borrowing water elemental power to add wooden elemental power, and turning it to fire!
[Li Fire Formation] was not a high-level formation. It was commonly engraved in most lowgrade dan cauldrons. Compare to [Streaming Fire Formation], [Great Li Fire Formation] was
higher-grade, and usually constructed of two or more [Li Fire Formations].
The [Great Li Fire Formation] that Zuo Mo setup was composed of seven entire streaming fire
formations! The seven Li Fire formations were being aided by plentiful wooden elemental
energy, after being strengthened by the Three-Turn formation!
How strong would the fire they produce be?
Zuo Mo was full of expectation, and wanted to find a person to try it on.
The entire pond had been turned by Zuo Mo into an enormous dan cauldron! It could be
imagined just how great the firepower of this great dan cauldron would be. But he didnt know
how high it would reach. The previous experiments he ran had used basic and cheapest materials.
He had been somewhat satisfied with the power.
This [Great Li Fire Formation] was really piled up using all of his jingshi. The majority of the
components had been bought from the Hundred Treasure Flying Pavilion.
He took out a bunch of three chi long nails from the pile of materials to heave onto his shoulders,
his right hand holding an enormously large hammer!
Zuo Mos eyes flashed with light. Hei hei, this was just the beginning

Chang Heng casually walked along the mountain paths as though he was taking a stroll, his
expression lazy. He would occasionally stop, and look at the happily fighting Wei Sheng and Gu
Rong Ping.
He had encountered a few xiuzhe, but they acted as though they had seen a ghost, turning and
running away. He was too lazy to chase, lazily strolling along. In the last two rounds, the
outcome of his opponents had been the same, both seriously wounded! One was going to lie on
the bed for half a year, and the other eight months.
For most contestants, they were more willing to battle Gu Rong Ping than Chang Heng. This was
a choice between loss and seriously injured. The great majority were naturally more willing to
lose rather than be seriously injured for half a year.
Competitors like Chang Heng that moved around freely had absolute confidence in their power.
Normal competitors found places to hide. The longer they stayed in, the higher their ranking.
Everyone understood this and the xiuzhe that had reached this level, none of them lacked
patience.
Chang Heng finally met a xiuzhe that didnt run away upon seeing him.
An extremely average looking xiuzhe that had not left an impression on Chang Heng in previous
rounds. A yellow face, a bulbous nose, a short robe. The other appeared extremely calm, looking
in interest at him.
Chang Heng suddenly sniffed, tilting his head and muttering to himself, A familiar smell.
The other paused, and then had revealed an expression of great joy.
Chang Heng didnt know why the other person would be so happy, just like he didnt know why
the other would have a smell that he would find familiar. But he was too lazy to ask, his right
hand directly reaching for the copper ring between his clavicles.
The tooth-aching sound of a blade grinding against bone sounded, a horrifying scene appeared
again.
The bright red Blood Spider Sword slowly was pulled out.
Chang Heng found the xiuzhe opposite him was staring at the Blood Spider Sword. The joy had
disappeared. Replacing it seemed to be disappointment.

Disappointment!
Strangely, a smile appeared at the corner of Chang Hengs mouth. His wiry hair stood like
swords, full of killing intent.

Luo Li carefully concealed himself in a mountain valley. Compared to the calm of Eldest
Shixiong and the casualness of Chang Heng, he was much more cautious. He sat down crosslegged at the center of the valley, his flying sword floating perpendicular to the ground beside
him. His eyes were tightly closed as he nurtured the sword essence inside.
He was like a hunter waiting for his prey. Any enemy that appeared at the mouth of the valley
would face his long-prepared attack.
Thinking back to his former arrogance, he was like a bystander that judged himself. He had
wanted to use the [Empty Sword Scripture] and [Shapeless Sword Scripture] to recover [Void
Sword Scripture], but had accidentally walked onto another road, a road that belonged to
himself.
His talent was not as awe-inspiring as Wei Sheng, but it was still better than others. Before Wei
Sheng and Zuo Mo had appeared, he had been the most outstanding disciple of Wu Kong Sword
Sect. It was the heap of favor that he had received that had gradually caused his pride and
conceit. His entire person had become impetuous. Zuo Mos blow had been like an alarm,
shaking him awake.
The Luo Li that had woken up was abnormally hard-working and started to display his talent.
The person who had earned the greatest benefits from the opening of the sects records had been
Luo Li. No one was clear on what Wei Sheng had received in his trip of the sword cave, but
Eldest Shixiong was not interested at all in the records. Zuo Mo was only interested in danmaking, forging, and formation. Other than flipping through [Ice Dragon Sword Scripture], he
didnt even look at any other sword scripture.
Luo Li was different.

Unable to achieve anything from studying [Empty Sword Scripture] and [Shapeless Sword
Scripture], he could only search for another road. As though he was dying of thirst, he had read
through almost all the sword scriptures in the sect, in hopes that they could inspire him.
Especially the fourth-grade sword scriptures like [Cloud Sword Scripture], [Red Flame Sword
Scripture] and [Greenstone Sword Scripture], he had repeatedly read over and over. No one
would have thought that, just by using these three sword scriptures, he had really merged [Empty
Sword Scripture] and [Shapeless Sword Scripture]!
But the newly merged sword scripture was different from [Void Sword Scripture]
Luo Li named it [Self Separation]!
Note: the scripture is called or Wo Li. The wo means I or me. The li is the same li as
Luo Li, meaning split or leave.
Translator Ramblings: Luo Li is improving as a person, which is nice. My other choices for the
name were [I, Separate] or just use [Wo Li]. There will be more on him in the upcoming
chapters. Hes a genius too, just not as good as Wei Sheng.
Zuo Mo is starting his own plans. Everyone is doing their own thing now.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Thirty


Eight Aggravation and Pleasure
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and cactuar0.
Chapter One Hundred and Thirty Eight Aggravation and Pleasure
Yu Bai had not found Zong Ming Yan. That slightly disappointed him. He suddenly noticed, not
far away, there stood a golden armored soldier. He recognized it as a seal soldier. The fact that
Zuo Mo had challenged Ling Ying Sect was not known by the non-locals, but it had spread
widely in Dong Fu locally. Naturally, one piece of important information had been Zuo Mo had
taken a seal soldier, so Yu Bai knew of it.
He hadnt thought that Zuo Mo would be so close to him.
Yu Bai shook his head. He didnt have much interest in Zuo Mo. Even though the other had
displayed outstanding talent, Yu Bai looked down on doing something such as bullying a zhuji
xiuzhe. His Master and Wu Kong Sword Sect were on good relations. He was not willing to
disrupt this kind of friendly relationship.

He was even considering, that if there was the chance, he would help Zuo Mo out.
But, very quickly, he did not have the attention to spare to think about this question because he
saw a great enemy. A large man holding a gigantic sword the size of a door, stomping heavily as
he neared. The other had already noticed him. Yu Bai could feel the other nearing, as his
presence was quickly rising.
Nan Men Yang, the brightest grassroots xiuzhe in this Sword Test Conference. This extremely
large figured man was extremely talented. Practicing the second grade [Vajra Scripture] and
using the second-grade [Mountain Breaker Sword] combined for astonishing power. Because he
belong to no family or sect, he quickly became the piece of jade that all sects were vying for. The
benefits each sect offered him quickly rose. According to those familiar, Gu Rong Ping had
represented Heart Lake Sect to give an invitation. Other than that, almost all the large sects had
made an offer.
He was only twenty four years this year, his potential seemed limitless.
Nan Men Yang was the largest xiuzhe in the Sword Test Conference. His height of one zhang
made him look like a moving mountain. All the muscles on his body were hard and powerful, the
hard curves carved as they gave off the special faint gold light from the [Vajra Scripture], a
presence that pressured others and suffocated them.
His strides were long, steady, and heavy, and one couldnt help but feel the ground was shaking
as he walked.

Zuo Mo felt the vibration of the ground and raised his head. However, due to the dense foliage of
the trees, he couldnt see the figure of Nan Men Yang.
After muttering a few words, he continued his work.
Three zhi long metal nails glowed with a cool blue light. Barely visible were the patterns of
formations that covered the entire body of the nails.
Zuo Mo spat into his palms and raised the large metal hammer, channeling [Vajra Profound
Sutra] as he pounded the metal nail into the ground. In total, there were nine large metal nails
that were hammered into the ground by Zuo Mo according to specific locations. They formed the

beginnings of a formation. After the hammering, Zuo Mo didnt wipe his sweat away as he stood
at the center of the formation, his fingers flying as he spat out a string of rushed notes.
The cool blue light started to spread from the nine metal nails into the surroundings. In the blink
of an eye, with Zuo Mo as the center, a circle with radius of thirty zhang was completely dyed
with blue light.
Zuo Mo suddenly shouted, Set!
The blue light that had been spreading instantly stopped. They brightened and then disappeared.
Zuo Mo released the ling power on his hands, collapsing onto his behind on the ground as he
panted. Oh dear, this [Nine Metal Earth Formation] might not be a high-grade formation but it
really used up a lot of ling power. [Nine Metal Earth Formation] was a second-grade formation.
It only had one ability, it turned all the earth within the area of the formation as hard as metal,
preventing enemies from attacking from below the earth.
After solving the problem of defending the earth, the next he had to solve was defending against
the sky.
This time, Zuo Mo chose to use the [Dragon Tying Formation]. If a ningmai xiuzhe was trapped
by the [Dragon Tying Formation], they usually couldnt get out quickly. What Zuo Mo needed
was just that little amount of time. Out of caution, Zuo Mo set down six [Dragon Tying
Formation], almost covering all angles.

Not everyones eyes were fixed on Wei Sheng and Gu Rong Ping. Some people were noticing
every single one of Zuo Mos actions.
What does he want to do? Yan Ming Zi dazedly asked Hu Shan.
Hu Shan was also gaping. He woodenly shook his head. Dont know
Is he trying to build a cave residence there? Tao Zhu looked as though she had seen a ghost.
This this this

At the place that the disciples of Wu Kong Sword Sect were gathering, everyones expressions
became extremely strange.
Zuo Shidis thinking Li Ying Fengs face was red, and she forced out, extremely
unique!
Xiao Guos eyes were full of stars, extremely admiring. Shixiong is very strong! To be able to
think of such a powerful method! Too powerful!
The expression of the disciples that heard this became even stranger.
So embarrassing! Yan Le sighed, covering his head, not bearing to look. We are sword xiu

Shi Feng Rongs face was black. When he comes back, we need to sort out this rascal! He really
humiliated us Wu Kong Sword Sect to the ground!
The cold light in Xin Yans eyes were like the dance of countless blades. His voice seemed to
come out of a deep glacier, so cold that peoples hearts shook. Ill teachhim what a sword xiu
is!
Pei Yuan Ran, who had the greatest experience in keeping his composure, felt his face was
extremely red. He seemed to hear the memorial tablets of the ancestral masters in Wu Kong Hall
were all jumping, the ancestral masters beating their chests and stomping their feet.
Embarrassment, embarrassment
So humiliating, so humiliating
You unfilial disciples, I I need to climb out

Pei Yuan Ran felt as though his entire body was freezing. As he looked at the Zuo Mo in the
mirage happily setting up his formations without a hint of stopping, his breath choked at his
throat. His face was suffocating so much it was red, his fingers trembling.
Just at this time, he heard Xiao Guos innocent voice.
Why says that Shixiong is an embarrassment? Shixiongs formation looks very powerful!
Pei Yuan Ran felt his vision turn black. He almost fainted.

At least, there is Wei Sheng. He comforted himself like this.

Wei Sheng and Gu Rong Pings battle quickly reached the climax.
The tip of the main peak soared over the other mountains, clouds occasionally floating past the
body of the mountain.
No one would have thought that Wei Sheng could display such power. Based just on the level of
cultivation, Wei Sheng definitely had no hope of winning. However, real battle did not mean that
those of the higher cultivation stage would win. But even if Wei Sheng lost this fight, no one
would ever doubt his strength again. Even if Gu Rong Ping won, the title of the Strongest among
the younger generation of Sky Moon Jie would still be Wei Sheng.
Gu Rong Ping was also clear about this, so his expression was very ugly, ugly like it had never
been before.
He had never thought that anyone in the younger generation would surpass him. Maybe there
was, but certainly not in Sky Moon Jie.
Who was Wei Sheng? Where was Wu Kong Sword Sect? A few months ago, who even knew?
A person who had been unknown suddenly took away the halo around him, and had done it in
front of this many people. Hate slid across Gu Rong Pings eyes. His sword presence became
increasingly vicious.
But the elders that were watching all shook their heads and sighed. Gu Rong Pings Heart Lake
Sword was based on the heart as a lake, clear and without waves. But right now, Gu Rong Pings
sword presence was full of viciousness. Compared to the emptiness previously, even though the
power looked to have increased, but in reality, he was losing.
Facing Gu Rong Pings sharp sword presence, Wei Sheng had no thoughts of retreat. His square
face and thick brows were miles away from Gu Rong Pings handsomeness and elegance. Yet the
steady square face, at this time, had a different kind of charisma.

Only those jindan experts with their keen eyes could sensitively catch the doubt that occasionally
flashed through his eyes. That was the chaos and unsteadiness of the stage of Heart Turn Sword
Essence.
Some of the elders and sect leaders took the chance to teach the disciples beside them what was
Heart Turn Sword Essence.
Originally, Wei Sheng, with his unsteady situation, was not expected to win against Gu Rong
Ping. However, Gu Rong Ping had lost his equilibrium, and did not give Wei Sheng enough of a
threat. What Wei Sheng was now relying on was [Void Sword Scripture]!
The long-lost sword scripture [Void Sword Scripture] finally showed itself in his hands. Even Pei
Yuan Ran and the others didnt look away. The experts that were watching felt an unparalleled
shock!
Sixth-grade sword scripture, this was the best sword scripture in Sky Moon Jie without a doubt!
Gu Rong Ping felt extremely uncomfortable.
Wei Shengs sword moves seemed to be intangible and invisible. It was untraceable, and what
made him want to spit blood the most was the others sword essence! It was clearly a tangible
and sharp sword essence, but upon impact, it was like hitting empty space, as though that sword
essence was a mirage rather than tangible. But if he did not pay attention to it, there would
definitely be countless more holes on his body.
Gu Rong Ping had never fought as uncomfortably as this.
The others sword essence was really too strange. It really was out of the norm!
What he cultivated was [Heart Lake Sword Scripture]. It was the secret of Heart Lake Sword
Sect and was ranked high in fifth-grade. Did the others sword scripture have a higher grade than
[Heart Lake Sword Scripture]?
Impossible! A backwater little sect, how could it have a sword scripture over fifth-grade?
Gu Rong Ping tightened his jaw, staring at Wei Sheng, the sword presence rising.
Since he could not understand, then he wouldnt understand!
Gu Rong Ping resolved his heart.

Our sects [Void Sword Scripture] is as wondrous as expected! Rather than the aggravation as
he looked at Zuo Mo, Yan Les face was light as he watched Wei Shengs fight.
Xin Yan didnt have the attention to talk. His eyes were opened wide as he stared at Wei Sheng
unblinkingly.
Pei Yuan Rans eyes were dazedly looking in the distance, muttering, Master, this disciple has
not failed
[Void Sword Scripture] had always been a sickness on his heart. Now that it could see the light of
day again, he was naturally very excited. The four elders of Wu Kong Sword Sect were skilled
and had found fame in Yao Hunt, but were willing to lurk in Dong Fu. It had all been for this, for
the succession of the sect. Now that there was a disciple of limitless potential like Wei Sheng and
[Void Sword Scripture] had been restored, his heart was beating rapidly.
Such a situation, everyone understood that Wu Kong Sword Sect would definitely become one of
the top sects in Sky Moon Jie!
In possession of such a wondrous sword scripture, and having a disciple of unparalleled talent,
Wu Kong Sword Sect could not be stopped.
Some with nimble minds started thinking about reacquainting themselves with this sect that had
appeared out of nowhere. And other people, like the sect leader of Ling Ying Sect, had a terrible
expression. If Wu Kong Sword Sect had been a power unable to be dismissed before, then the
present Wu Kong Sword Sect would squeeze into the top ranks of the Sky Moon Jie sects. Ling
Ying Sect had already lost the qualification to compete with them.
At this moment, Wei Sheng was like the sun that was burning in the sky, releasing rays of
unparalleled bright rays. All the other competitors were like the stars beside the sun, completely
diminished and dark.
Zuo Mo did not know anything about these situations. All of his focus was on the formation in
front of him.
He wiped away the sweat on his face, and started to create the most important part of this
formation group.
[Skyring Moon Chime Formation]!

Translator Ramblings: Semi-reaction chapter. Yu Bai is too nice of a person, and also
underestimates other people. Pei Yuan Ran is I feel this little arc could also be called How
to piss off all your teachers.

Formation-Defense-Style

Chapter One Hundred and Thirty Nine Formation-Defense-Style
The ferocity of Sus counterattack surprised Gui Feng!
After the three rushed notes were spat out from behind the black gauze, the Black Daze sword
that was held horizontally in front of Sus body began glowing. The surrounding space twisted as
if pulled by an invisible hand. There was no wind, but one felt as though the space was
collapsing. Gui Fengs white bone sword trembled, the two dots of ghost fire in the eye sockets
of the skull guard flickered like the a candle flame, and seemed ready to be extinguished at any
moment.
Gui Fengs expression changed dramatically!
The ling energy around Sus body was extremely chaotic. The white bone sword was like a little
boat in a storm, about to capsize at any moment. That moment just now, he had almost lost his
connection to the white bone sword!
What sword scripture was this?
Full of shock, Gui Feng decided to retreat.
Su instantly detected Gui Fengs intentions. She snorted coldly, her right hand actually letting go
of the hilt of Black Daze.
The Black Daze sword did not drop to the ground, but floated horizontall and was spinning
rapidly. At the same time, a clear hum started to sound like that of a bell, sometimes near and
then far away.
As the bell sounded, countless invisible magnetic lines formed a gigantic net, heading for the
white bone sword!

[Magnetic Polarity Net]!


Without a flying sword, a sword xiu was just a tiger with no claws nor teeth.
Gui Feng was not willing to surrender. The cold light in his eyes grew, his body twisted slightly
and he disappeared on his spot. Ghost Movement! At the same time, he appeared in the magnetic
net!
Falling into the web? Su was slightly surprised.
Appearing in the magnetic web, the first thing Gui Feng did was reach to grab the white bone
sword.
Once the white bone sword entered his palm, Gui Feng felt very secure. He had understood Sus
sword scripture!
The strongest attribute of the magnetic force sword scriptures was that they could manipulate the
ling energy in the world, affecting the connection and blocking the sword xiu from their flying
sword. If they cultivated to high levels, they could easily control the magnetic forces of the world
to their will, possibly even creating their own world, extremely powerful.
However, Su was far from that step.
Holding the copper coin hilt, Gui Fengs wrist shook. A shriek came from the white bone sword,
like a soul wailing. A ball of black mist flew out of the flying sword, suddenly exploding and
turning into countless wisps of thin smoke that spread in all directions.
In the blink of an eye, there were countless thumb-sized black ghosts in the surroundings.
Formed from the black smoke, these were little black ghosts , their faces like those of a leper that
were extremely ugly. They appeared extremely horrifying, their bellies were round, their limbs
short and stout, and their eyes were an eerie green.
The dense crowd of little ghosts floated beside Gui Feng, so many they could not be counted,
fearful to the bystander.
Gui Fengs pupils were a strange dark black, so deep the bottom could not be seen. His face
which had been dark and thin in the beginning was now completely robbed of vitality, so white it
was like that of a dead person.
Behind the black gauze, Sus expression finally changed!
Gui Feng grumbled a sound, and the white bone sword in his hand pointed at Su.

[Little Ghost Ask Directions]!


Creak, all the little ghosts in the sky simultaneously gave a strange howl. Their features twisted
as they turned to countless black images and headed towards Su. These little ghosts were
extremely fast, their bodies blurring as they would suddenly disappear in the sky, and then
suddenly appear out of the air.
Ghost Movement! These little ghosts had the ability of Ghost Movement!
Su did not dare to keep her strength now, her right palm firmly hitting the sword hilt of the Black
Daze that was spinning.
The Black Daze sword was like a windmill as it spun, circles of invisible magnetic force
suddenly spreading out.
A thin snow-white finger pointed at the center of the black light wheel.
[Magnetic Shield]!
The invisible magnetic force that was spread by the wheel of light instantly increased to the point
that the ripple like patterns were visible to the naked eye. The invisible patterns quickly covered
Su.
The vicious and raging little ghosts, when they encountered the invisible patterns, were instantly
deflected back. But these little ghosts were not damaged in the least. With a strange howl, they
kept on leaping towards Su!
This seemed like a black storm that would never stop, howls ringing out endlessly. The little
ghosts did not seem to know exhaustion, repeatedly charging at Su. The invisible patterns were
like the surface of a lake that was being attacked by the storm, rippling restlessly, but no matter
how the little ghosts charged, it managed to firmly protect Su.
The battle instantly became a stand-off. Neither could win over the other.
Gui Fengs ebony black eyes looked deeply at Su behind the magnetic shield, and suddenly
disappeared on his spot. Disappearing along with him were the countless little ghosts.
This black storm had came suddenly, and left even more abruptly!
Su took a breath, but did not dare to move aside her finger. Only when she was certain that Gui
Feng was not beside her did she move her finger aside, releasing the magnetic shield. Only now
did she discover, without her noticing her back had become soaked with sweat.

Su, who had been very certain that she could guarantee that Zuo Mo would enter the top ten,
realized that she had underestimated the heroes of the world!
Calming down her messy ling power, she decided to go find Zuo Mo immediately.
The faster she found Zuo Mo, the higher the chance they could win this battle. Up until now, she
still had not received Zuo Mos paper crane. This made her heart fill with worry.
Did the little zombie have such terrible luck? Had he encountered danger so early?
She unconsciously sped up. If she had an appropriate flying sword just now

Zuo Mo had long thrown the matter of the paper crane to the back of his mind. All of his
attention was on his [Skyring Moon Chime Formation].
The [Skyring Moon Chime Formation] was the formation he had gotten in payment for
processing the Inky Black Lotus Seed. It was the only fourth-grade formation in his possession
so after he had received it, he had spent large amounts of time on it. He had made a very
profound conclusion. Formations above fourth-level werent that simple.
[Skyring Moon Chime Formation] did not look very complex. It was a mother-and-child
formation. The grade of each child formation was not high, most of them second-grade. The
formation that was the crux was just a third-grade formation. But the more he studied it, the more
Zuo Mo felt this [Skyring Moon Chime Formation] was not simple!
The difficulty of each child formation was not high and he could easily complete it, but fitting all
of them together greatly increased the difficulty.
The smallest [Skyring Moon Chime Formation] required eighteen child formations. The more
child formations there were, the more powerful the formation became. The power of a thirty six
child formation [Skyring Moon Chime Formation] was extremely powerful. If Zuo Mo was
trapped in it, he definitely could not get out.
Zuo Mo had decided to make a seventy two child formation [Skyring Moon Chime Formation].

Seventy-two child formations and thirty-six child formations, the number of child formations had
doubled, but the difference in the power had more than doubled.
The little mountain of materials was mostly prepared for the [Skyring Moon Chime Formation].
If this formation was successfully set up, Zuo Mo felt the likelihood of a ningmai xiuzhe coming
out once they were trapped in the formation was low. Also, the [Skyring Moon Chime
Formation] was extremely profound. It was impossible to damage the formation just through
brute force, unless someone found the eye of the formation.
But at the eye of the formation, Zuo Mo had just carefully made a gigantic dan cauldron!
It was a pity he didnt have the time to fantasize about his enemies being burnt. Zuo Mo needed
to quickly finish the formation.
It required large amounts of time to set up the seventy-two child formations. So in Zuo Mos
plan, it was to first make an eighteen children formation [Skyring Moon Chime Formation], and
with that as the base, add another eighteen, forming a thirty-six [Skyring Moon Chime
Formation]. Increasing it step by step, it would make sure he still had the power to fight if an
enemy sneaked up.
He was extremely proud that he had thought of such a great plan.
His cultivation wasnt enough, so ge wont compete in cultivation with you people!
Looking at the formations that he had already set up, Zuo Mos heart was filled with
accomplishment. With the pond as the center, the groups of formations, jade pieces, copper
cauldrons, and metal nails flashed with blinding light. The pond had been half a mu large in the
beginning. This formation territory had reached an area of five mu. Originally, not many people
had been paying attention to Zuo Mo, but when this five mu of formations were completed, all
kinds of lights came and crossed. In comparison to this gigantic light-emitting formation area,
the golden armored seal soldier that was summoned it was extremely tiny.

This formation belt was really too eye-catching. The people watching from the gigantic mirage in
Dong Fu could easily find it with a glance.
Consequently, many people unconsciously looked at this sparkling formation belt.

Their expression were strangely similar, all gaping with wide eyes, dumbstruck where they were.
Pei Yuan Ran and the others had abnormally ugly expressions. Because their cultivation was too
high, they could easily hear the conversation in the surroundings.
I heard this guy is from Wu Kong Sword Sect, he isnt the normal kind of extreme!
Are you sure it isnt Wu Kong Formation Sect?
Pei Yuan Rans eyebrows twitched. The other three had dark expressions. The four of them had a
strong impulse they had never had before charge into the Great Pine Pavilion, and cut Zuo Mo
down with a blow to pay for his crime towards the ancestral masters!
Another kind of conversation was going on at the other side.
I understand now! A xiuzhe suddenly stood up, his face full of realization, extremely excited.
Hearing this, his companions hurriedly crowded over. What do you understand?
The xiuzhe was extremely excited. Zuo Mos true aim is to get the entire Great Pine Pavilion!
Hes putting on a disguise and winning in the dark! He wants to slowly take over the Great Pine
Pavilion. Right, the books say this is called nibbling
At this time, not just Pei Yuan Ran, but all of the Wu Kong Sword Sect disciples, were so
embarrassed they wanted to find a crack in the ground to hide in.
This disciple is unfilial! To have shamed the ancestral masters! Tears streamed down Pei Yuan
Rans face, extremely sorrowful.
Xin Yans hand unconsciously touched his flying sword, his voice seeming to have come out of
purgatory. I will let him know that he cannot go to Wu Kong Formation Sect!
Yan Le, who was usually cheerful, gritted his teeth. From next month, Ill stop all of his
allowance! He wont get one more jingshi from me!
Shi Feng Rongs response was very calm. Dont worry, Ill help heal him. He definitely wont
die. You can slowly work on him.
The disciples in the surroundings were shuddering as they unconsciously distanced themselves
from the exploding elders.

Zuo Mo, not knowing that he had provoked public rage, was extremely proud. He turned into a
laborious worker-ant, energetically continuing his great endeavor of construction.
Just five mu, it was too small!
Once the seventy-two child formation [Skyring Moon Chime Formation] was completely set up,
it would form a gigantic formation belt over fifteen mu large!
Zuo Mo called his new idea: formation-defense-style. The full name was Complete Formation
Territory Defense Style.
Today was the day destined for formation-defense-style to become famous.
Zuo Mo was extremely motivated, his heart full of anticipation!
Translator Ramblings: Zuo Mos skill at naming is terrible.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and and Forty


[Self Separation]
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, warlord212 and
cactuar0.
Chapter One Hundred and Forty [Self Separation]
Chang Heng and the yellow-faced man fought fiercely.
The strangely shaped copper ring, the Blood Spider sword, shined a sticky bloody color each
time it was waved a noxious odor wafted forth. His strength was much stronger compared to
when he had fought Zuo Mo.
Yet the yellow-faced man in front of him moved with ease. A copper dagger axe flew around
him. The copper dagger axe emitted a green-blue light. As it flew, it formed a blue curtain. The
bloody light was not able to break through this fragile-looking green-blue curtain of light.
Cultivation using blood, how extremely obscure, The yellow-faced man said, its a pity that
you didnt cultivate it correctly, you just have the appearance of it.
Just the appearance? Chang Hengs pupils slightly shrunk.

His fingers twitching slightly, the Bloody Spider sword that was over his fingers flew into the
sky. As the sword flew, it turned into an enormous shadow.
Boom!
Six thick legs heavily hit the ground, dust flying away as the ground trembled slightly . A bloody
spider stared fiercely at the yellow-faced man. Compared to when it had faced Zuo Mo, it was
more than double its previous size. The six legs of the spider were slender and long, full of
hooks. The joints were much thicker, stronger and more powerful. The dark patterns on the
surface of the blood spider was more evident than before, and there was a slightly metallic sheen,
making sure people would not doubt its hardness.
What made others the most terrified was the face of the blood spider. The flat face seemed to
have a few marks reminiscent of a human face. This face that seemed human-like was extremely
vicious and cruel, a brutal presence emanating from it.
Oh, not bad. To be able to cultivate almost to the step of Human Face, you have some talent,
The yellow-faced man said, However, some parts of your cultivation are not correct. If you do
not correct it, there will be many side-effects.
For the first time, a serious expression came onto Chang Hengs face. The yellow-faced man
expressed through his facial expressions and speech that he was familiar with Chang Hengs
cultivation scripture. He might be part of Ling Ying Sect, but the scripture he practiced was not
one of Ling Ying Sects scriptures. He had obtained the scripture and the Bloody Spider sword
from a xiuzhe that he killed.
However, the scripture he had obtained was not complete. Evidently, its previous owner had not
received it through proper channels. The blood method was extremely powerful, but at the same
time, it was much more dangerous than normal scriptures. Just the tiniest mistake, and it could
rebound and kill him. Chang Hengs personality might seem dominant and vicious, but he was
extremely careful when he cultivated.
The yellow-faced mans words shot straight into Chang Hengs heart.
Chang Heng suddenly took back the Blood Spider, What do you want for it?
The yellow-faced man gave an expression of praise, Find me after the competition.
Finishing, his figure disappeared where he stood.

Chang Hengs heart shook. Regardless of whether the yellow-faced man had been fooling him or
not, but just judging from his method of movement it was apparent the yellow-faced man was
more powerful than he was.
From the first clash between Chang Heng and the yellow-faced man a very short time had
passed. Compared to the flashiness of the other battles, their fight did not attract anyones
attention.

Meng Qing was like a cat as he carefully traversed through the woods. He was most skilled in
concealment and assassination, and had once even escaped the pursuit of a jindan expert. But
this time he was even more careful. The fifteen mountains covered a large area, but if there were
one hundred ningmai xiuzhe fighting, then this battlefield could not be considered large. Quite
the reverse, this battlefield was too small.
Since the battlefield was small, the fighting had become chaotic and extremely fierce. What he
needed to be careful about was, other than him, that the ninety-nine other people were all his
enemies.
Different than the other xiuzhe, he had a clear goal. However, when he thought about it, he felt it
strange. A zhuji xiuzhe, was it worth spending jingshi for him kill the person? He looked down at
it inside. A zhuji xiuzhe, how could he pass through the last round of fighting?
However, since he received the clients jingshi, he still decided to complete the job. In his
business, having a good reputation was everything. His own cultivation was limited and there
were not many jobs he could complete. Usually, his living was very tight. Coming to the Sword
Test Conference was because he wanted the prize. Then the luck came. Someone had actually
found him and requested a job.
The payment was extremely tempting, and most importantly, the target was the only zhuji xiuzhe
in the Sword Test Conference. If it was any other person, he might be slightly unconfident, but
since it was Zuo Mo, he did not hesitate in accepting the job. He had seen Chao An and Zuo
Mos fight. Truthfully, to win from a disadvantage, he admired Zuo Mo. He was suspicious that
the person who made the request was Chao An. Chao An must have been unable to bear being
eliminated and was now scheming from the shadows.
However, what did that have to do with him? He wouldnt be at odds with jingshi!

These days, it was hard to make a living. Other than concealment, his battle abilities were
average. There were not many jobs he could usually do. He was full of confidence for this job.
He thought that the reason Zuo Mo could defeat Chao An was that Chao An had underestimated
his opponent. Also, Zuo Mo had prepared very well beforehand. If it had been him, he definitely
wouldnt have given Zuo Mo so many chances to fight. From the beginning, he hadnt thought of
fighting openly. No matter how weak Zuo Mo was, he would persist in an ambush. In any case,
he was just going for the jingshi.
However, to complete this job, he needed to find Zuo Mo first. This was the most troublesome
part of his job.
Alright, jingshi wouldnt just drop from the sky. If there was no difficulty, other people wouldnt
have spent so much jingshi to hire him.
He carefully controlled his body, like a blurry shadow, as he carefully moved among the trees.
The color around his body kept on blending in with the surroundings. His presence was kept
inside his body, it was as though he did not exist and his presence was difficult to detect. It was
only due to his skills with this technique that no one had found him along the way. He was
especially careful today. The surroundings were all filled with ningmai xiuzhe, and there was no
lack of experts. If he was found, he didnt have a chance of victory.
Hm, there was a mountain valley up ahead.
Meng Qing decided to take a look. Zuo Mos own cultivation was lower than other people, and
naturally wouldnt dare to walk around. After taking the job, he had been constantly pondering.
He felt it was most probable that Zuo Mo would find a corner and use formation to defend his
position. So during his search, he was especially attentive to places like mountain valleys and
other hiding places.
The mouth of the valley up ahead was especially narrow. He didnt dare to be brash, and
carefully moved around by taking advantage of the geographic landscape.

Inside the mountain valley, Luo Li sat cross legged with his eyes closed. His flying sword was
silently floating beside him. He was like a volcano, looking peaceful on the surface, but the
sword essence was boiling inside.

Today, would be the first time he used [Self Separation] in battle!


There was a strange excitement welling up inside. This unnameable excitement was like a
soundless flame, burning every bit of his body.
But he did not move, he was motionless like an old monk in meditation. He was suppressing it,
suppressing this excitement that made him want to fight!
The air around him moved without a wind pushing it. Inside the little valley, it was like a tornado
had started. However, what people would gasp at was that, no matter how strong the wind was
inside the valley, there was no hint of it at the mouth of the valley.
Suddenly, he opened his eyes!
Someone was here!
[Self Separation] had been created with [Shapeless Sword Scripture] and [Empty Sword
Scripture] as the rope and [Cloud Sword Scripture], [Red Flame Sword Scripture] and
[Greenstone Sword Scripture] as the beads. He had put a lot of thought into it. Even though it
was limited by his cultivation and knowledge, there were still many wonderful aspects, even Xin
Yan Shibo had praised it.
Luo Li remained cross legged as his mind expanded with him at the center, to a radius of ten
zhang. The mountain rocks, and the trees, slowly disappeared, like they were vanishing into
space, turning into a patch of emptiness.
He was sitting in the center of a void.
The slightest animal, if they entered this patch of void, would become evident, and he would
easily detect it.
It would be as though a drop of black ink appeared on a piece of snow white paper. No matter
how small the ink dot was, it would be abnormally startling.
Meng Qings body was blended with the surroundings. He was hard to see using the naked eye,
but in this patch of void in Luo Lis mind,, he detected that there was another person!
The excitement that had been suppressed for so long in his chest finally found a vent.
In reverse to the heat and excitement in his eyes, his expression was serious. His right hand
opened, palm faced away from his body. His thumb and pinky crossed as the other three fingers
pointed at the sky.

The silently floating flying sword was like a vicious beast that had woken up from its dreams,
opening its blood red eyes, and baring its sharp fangs.
A clear hum sounded in the air.
On the sword a green and red light entwined like two ling lovers in a passionate embrace,
extremely joyful!
Separate!
A light sigh, unable to be traced, spoken as though from far away but like a murmur close to the
ear.
The red and green light gradually turned to white light. The joy on the sword quickly became
faint, a feeling of loneliness rose, like the autumn wind blowing.
The white flying sword did not move fast. Like a piece of ice, the flying sword quickly melted
into the air with speed invisible to the naked eye.

At the moment Luo Li moved, Meng Qing knew that he had been detected!
Not daring to hesitate, he jumped up and sprinted for the opening of the valley.
The shocking transformation of the others flying sword made his skin on his head prickle. What
sword scripture was that?
Especially when he saw the others flying sword disappear into space, the danger he felt
suddenly reached a peak. In his profession, the thing most trusted was instinct. Each time that he
had a bad feeling, he knew there was danger!
But such a strong feeling of danger as he had today, he had only encountered it before, when he
had been pursued by that jindan expert.
F***! Didnt they say it was all ningmai xiuzhe? Did he encounter Gu Rong Ping? Damn it, he
should not be so unlucky!

Meng Qing paled. The feeling of danger might not rival the last time when he had met the jindan
expert but it secured the position of second. His heart jumped rapidly. He didnt dare to keep
anything back, all of his ling power furiously channeling behind him as he leapt to get out of the
valley! Behind him, a ling shield formed, looking slightly like a turtle shell.
He had just taken one step when something invisible suddenly hit the ling shield on his back. The
solid and hard ling shield instantly shattered into pieces.
Pew!
It was as though Meng Qing had been struck by lightning, his pupils suddenly expanding. He
spat out a mouthful of blood, and instantly became unconscious.
A figure landed from the sky, lightly inspecting the unconscious Meng Qing before saying
indifferently, Eliminated.
After that, he grabbed Meng Qing and disappeared.
But before he left, the gaze he threw at Luo Li contained a hint of shock.
Translator Ramblings: Guess whos brilliant? Theres a saying in Chinese that you lose in the
romantic battlefield while you win on the soccer field/basketball court/politics. Thats Luo Li at
the moment.
I feel Ming Qing is another version of Zuo Mo. Someone had malicious aims against Zuo Mo..

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Forty One


Zong Ming Yan VS Zuo Mo
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter One Hundred and Forty One Zong Ming Yan VS Zuo Mo
Zong Ming Yans face was dark. Seeing Wei Sheng and Gu Rong Pings battle with his own
eyes, and the power the two showed that was clearly a notch above him. The proud him really
did not feel very good seeing the fight.
In a terrible mood, he threw away all concealment, the sword essence on his body vibrating as he
waited for some idiot to land on his hands.

Zong Ming Yan, as the first seat disciple of Dong Qi Sword Sect, the beloved disciple of Zuo
Mei Tian, was not weak. Now that he was not disguising it, his presence revealed, most xiuzhe
turned and left upon seeing him. Those that had some power were also not willing to use up their
ling power this quickly. Everyone knew the earlier they used up their ling energy, the faster they
would be eliminated. This round was not just testing strength, but patience.
He heard sounds of fighting in the distance, snorted and headed over.
Nan Men Yangs body was glittering with gold light, hand holding an enormous sword, eyes
bulging, as his mountain-like figure moved ferociously. Not far from him, Yu Bai was dressed in
white. Even though his demeanor was not as extraordinary as Gu Rong Ping, he was also warm
and elegant. His long bamboo-like sword danced around him, battling the other to a standstill.
The two of them were very strong, especially Nan Men Yangs [Mountain Breaker Sword]. It
was extremely forceful and domineering. Each blow howled like thunder, as though it really had
the power to break mountains!

The elders and sect leaders of each sect that watched their battle all sighed in admiration.
This Nan Meng Yan is extremely talented. Just a second-grade [Mountain Breaker Sword] is
this powerful in his hands! If this boy works hard, he will definitely become an expert!
Right! Who can take him into the sect, will have another expert!

In reverse, no one was surprised at Yu Bais strength.


Wu Kong Sword Sects elders also noticed Nan Men Yang, the brightest non-sect xiuzhe of this
Sword Test Conference.
Shixiong, this boy really isnt bad! Should we also consider making an offer? Yan Le didnt
bear to tear his eyes away, as though he had seen a treasure.
Pei Yuan Ran pondered for a while and shook his head helplessly, This boy is full of potential,
but you know our assets as well as I do. Wei Sheng is just enough for us to deal with, and we

have Zuo Mo who is even more of a headache. Luo Li had improved greatly, and his personality
is much better than before. If we nurture him well, his future will also be bright.
When other people were having a headache over not having talented disciples in the sect, Pei
Yuan Ran was being troubled by having too many talented disciples.
Our wealth isnt that big of a problem. After this Sword Test Conference, Im afraid we cannot
stay low like we did previously. We should fight for what we need. These years, Ive been very
uncomfortable being suppressed, When Yan Le said this, he was full of bravado.
Pei Yuan Ran grinned, the light in his eyes flashing.
Xin Yan suddenly inserted, Theres no scripture suited for him.
Only now did they think about this crucial problem. Yan Men Yang was really talented, but that
depended on the scripture he practiced. Even though [Vajra Scripture] and [Mountain Breaker
Sword] was only second-grade, but because it was suited to him, it was extremely powerful. If
the scripture was not suited, then it was hard to say how far he could cultivate.
Those with experienced eyes could see with a glance that Nan Men Yang was a xiuzhe that
needed special scriptures.
Shi Feng Rong suddenly said, Isnt Zuo Mo practicing [Vajra Profound Sutra]? Why dont we
let him also practices [Vajra Profound Sutra].
Pei Yuan Ran grimaced,[Vajra Profound Sutra] is just a normal third grade body cultivation
scripture. Many sects have this scripture. We really cannot offer anything of substance. Alright,
we shouldnt pull him over and then waste his talent. That will be our crime.
The other people fell silent. None of Wu Kong Sword Sects sword scriptures were very suited
for Nan Men Yang, so they gave up on the thought.
Hm, Yan Le suddenly pointed at the mirage and said, Isnt that boy Zong Ming Yan. Hes
very near that rascal.
The others might have many opinions of Zuo Mo, but he was still a disciple of their sect. Hearing
this, they followed Yan Les finger.
But when their eyes saw where Zuo Mo was, they were instantly angered.
The sparkling five mu of formations had been eye-catching enough already. But in this short
period of time, the formation belt that spread to twice that area, taking over ten mu!

What was the guy trying to do? That was the first though that jumped into their head. The second
thought was, that was it! They really lost face this time!
The previous five mu of formations had just been a little pieces of land among the large green
mountains. Right now, it was a glowing big patch. Zuo Mo was passing through the formations,
not knowing exhaustion. If one looked closely, they could find the pride and excitement that
could not be disguised by his face.
If they knew how to lip-read, they could easily know what he was muttering.
Fighting with ge, kill you!
Cant beat you in cultivation, ge will use jingshi to smash you to death . Who who who
said that jingshi can cause people to bow bow to ge!
Im very poor, but Im very wretched

But lip-reading was not a profound skill. There were many people that knew how to do it.
Occasionally, people would burst into laughter.
The four elders felt that in this Sword Test Conference, their already fragile spirits were greatly
tortured. Whenever someone beside them laughed, they would be paranoid in feeling that those
people were laughing at them. They became four easily alarmed birds.
The heavens take pity!
The honored sect leader of Wu Kong Sword Sect! Ice Dragon Sword of a vicious reputation!
Even Yan Le and Shi Feng Rong were jindan experts! They were actually tormented by a zhuji
disciple to the point of wanting to die. They were almost driven into insanity!

Zong Ming Yan was truly heading for Zuo Mo. He had actually wanted to fight with Yu Bai, but
since Yu Bai was locked in fierce combat with Nan Men Yang, he naturally could not interfere.

For them, stooping to using low tactics to win was not a honorable thing. No matter if it was Yu
Bai or Zong Ming Yan, they were extremely proud. They definitely could not tolerate themselves
winning because they took advantage of someone else. So Zong Ming Yan could only change his
target.
The seal soldiers head that was a length above the trees was like a lighthouse glowing in the
dark, attracting Zong Ming Yan to come closer.

Now thats something interesting to see! Zong Ming Yan meeting the Scalping Zombie!
Its karma! I hate people who use jingshi to smash others the most!
Hes losing the face of us Dong Fu sword xiu! Zong Ming Yan, ge supports you! Get him down
quickly, hes too much of an embarrassment! The shame of Dong Fu!
Hearing the consensual indignation of the Dong Fu sword xiu, Pei Yuan Ran and the others
wanted to clap in agreement.
Huff! Yan Le exhaled deeply, This is great! He finally cant keep going!
It was as though a heavy weight had been lifted off Pei Yuan Rans shoulders, Its not
embarrassing to lose to Zong Ming Yan.
Xin Yan gave his rare agreement, Die early to be reincarnated!
The three of them had the same opinion, hoping that Zong Ming Yan could quickly finish the
fight. That way, Zuo Mo would have less time to embarrass everyone. Now, they felt that it was
the stupidest decision of their lives to make Zuo Mo attend the last round of the Sword Test
Conference. Wei Sheng had earned the sect lots of praise, but it was far from the amount that Zuo
Mo embarrassed the sect by. They really lost.
Only Shi Feng Rong didnt feel that great, Why is it Zong Ming Yan? I dont like Zuo Mei Tian,
hes an old bandit! She suddenly turned her face,Wei Sheng should go and kick Zuo Mo out!
Pei Yuan Ran pondered it., Fighting among the sect, that might not be good!

Yan Le gave an idea from the side, Let Zong Ming Yan first kick Zuo Mo out, then let Wei
Sheng kick Zong Ming Yan out!
Xin Yan, who had been silent, suddenly opened, Splendid!
At the doorway to every casino, a wagering match of Zuo Mo facing Zong Ming Yan was
quickly put up. The shopkeepers doing their best to holler.
Shaking all of Dong Fu, a wager of ten moves! The most unpopular choice of the last two
rounds, can the zombie do it again? It will be revealed very soon! A world-shattering wager, if
you do not personally participate, how could your life be perfect?
Come look, come see! Strong sword versus strong shield! What? No shield? Heavens! Sire,
look, is there a stronger, more turtle-like shield than this? This is certainly this years strongest
turtle formation! Look at what Mister Zuo Mo had named his work! Complete Formation
Territory Defense style! Just this extremely strong name, full of the feeling of security, it is worth
you betting on it!
The odds are one to five hundred! What? You still arent satisfied? This one can personally
guarantee that there wouldnt be a payment rate better than this! Think about it, last time, our
wonderful Zuo Mo had been the main actor of a sky-shattering wagering match. Think about the
people that had won so much! My neighbor Wang Xiao Ers aunts son had just put down ten
pieces of jingshi
Fu Jins eyes were red as he wagered all the jingshi on his body, muttering to himself, Its not
that I favor you. This is a grudge between me and Dong Qi Sword Sect! The worker at the
casino who heard this felt his heart shudder. Dong Qi Sword Sect was a large sect in Dong Fu.
Fu Jin recognized Zong Ming Yan! .It was during that incident, he had been injured by Zong
Ming Yan and another Dong Qi Sword Sect disciples. It was also that time that Zuo Mo had
stood up for him, and his relationship with Zuo Mo had deepened.
His eyes were entirely red as he bit his lips tightly, afraid for Zuo Mo.
He had naturally heard of Zong Ming Yans strength. Adding on that the two people had once
had a conflict, Zong Ming Yan definitely wouldnt have mercy.
Zuo Mos consciousness was better than others and quickly found Zong Ming Yan. Zong Ming
Yans steps were not fast. Step by step, he headed towards Zuo Mo. Truthfully, Zuo Mo wanted
to run. He might have some hope of victory against the average xiuzhe, but against experts like
Zong Ming Yan, there wasnt a chance at all.

The biggest flaw of the Formation-Defense-style he was proud of finally revealed itself. That
was, once it started, other than guarding it to the death, there wasnt any other way.
The two did not have a happy previous encounter. Due to him, a Dong Qi disciple had been
banned from Dong Fu.
Fine, if he couldnt escape, he wouldnt! Zuo Mo boldened his heart. If he decided to fight, there
was a bit of presence.
Wasnt it just Zong Ming Yan?
He looked at the surroundings. The glittering materials were like the sparkling jingshi, glowing
with an enchanting light that blinded him.
Courage rose in his heart.
Ge could use jingshi to smash down Pu Yao who called himself a Sky Yao. Youre just a ningmai
beginner, ge doesnt believe ge cant drown you!
Translator Ramblings: Zuo Mos not perfect, and his tactics still need work. Zuo Mei Tian is
Zong Ming Yans master that was mentioned a long time ago. He never shows up, hes just
always mentioned.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Forty Two


Seven Plum Sword
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom and warlord212.
In reality, Zuo Mo was not confident at all.
He had just made forty-five child formations for the [Skyring Moon Chime Formation], there
were still twenty-seven child formations until he reached seventy-two child formations. Motherand-child formations like [Skyring Moon Chime Formation] usually had an attribute. The more
child formations they had, the stronger they would be. The growth of power was a nonlinear
increase dependent on the number of single child formations, but increased in a pattern of values
like six, twelve, thirty six, etc.
The power of forty-five child formations, was just slightly stronger than thirty-six child
formations. If he could complete seventy-two child formations, the power of the formation
would be the difference between heaven and earth compared to a thirty-six child formation. It
would go up an entire stage. Zuo Mo estimated that the power of a seventy-two child formation
would be more than four times that of a thirty-six child formation. Of course, there were also
differences in the difficulty of setting up the formations. When the number of child formation
reached a certain amount, the difficulty would multiply when adding on one more formation.

However, this was not the time to consider these things. He had no other choice.
Zong Ming Yan did not have any intentions of relenting, heading straight for Zuo Mo.
Zuo Mo didnt hesitate, raising his hand to sent out a five level multi-colored mini pagoda.
Once the Five Colored Pagoda flew into the air, it grew in size. In the blink of an eye, it was the
height of a person. The Five Colored Pagoda flew into the sky above the pond. The pond below
instantly filled with mist, moisture roiling. The moisture quickly rose up, reaching the base of the
Five Color Pagoda. From far away, it looked as though the water was supporting the Five
Colored Pagoda.
The light of the Five Color Pagoda lit up, the body of the pagoda continuously emitting countless
flashes of five colored light that entered each formation.
Centered around the pond, the jade pieces, copper cauldrons, and formation nails in the ten mu
formation belt lit up.
If the formation belt could have been called sparkling before, then right now, it was like a
gigantic piece of gold had been embedded into the green landscape, extremely gaudy. Naturally,
it received the unanimous disdain of everyone.
But when the entire ten mu of formations completely lit up in the flick of a finger, that blinding
scene, how many people had seen anything like it?
No one had seen anything like it.
Such a large formation belt, it could only appear in the restricted grounds of a sect, and not just
any sect. There was none like it even around the sword cave of Wu Kong Sword Sect. There was
none around Dong Fu Hall. Heart Lake Sect did have one, but it had never been activated. The
last time it was activated, it was several hundreds of years ago.
The densely packed crowds of xiuzhe around Dong Fu were completely struck dumb by such a
spectacular scene.
Wei Sheng and Gu Rong Pings fight might be more profound and skillful, but in front of such an
enormous formation, it became minuscule. With Wei Sheng and Gu Rong Pings cultivating
stages of ningami, each sword energy would be seven or eight zhang. The longest would be ten
zhang. No matter how magnificent they were, they could not compare to the spectacle of ten mu
of formation being activated at once.
For a short moment, all of Dong Fu was completely silent.
A moment later, people slowly came out of their shock. Dong Fu instantly exploded. Several ten
thousands of xiuzhe speaking at once, from extremely silent to waves of roaring, some xiuzhe
that were of weaker cultivation felt their eyes rings and could not hear anything anymore.
After a while, their hearing finally recovered.
However, everyones discussion had not stopped. Quite the reverse, it had become even more
fierce.
Worth it! Definitely enough for me to come this far!
Spectacular! As expected, Zuo Mo really has some abilities, he can also muster up something!
What formation-seal-style? It is just jinzhi!

As everyone was sighed, the formation was completely activated. The formation belt about ten
mu big suddenly changed.
A crescent rose up high over the pond, the light flashing. Inside the formation, green blue mist
rose, blurring the landscape. Inside the mist, countless light rings of various sizes floated in the
air, gathering and scattering like a school of nimble fish.

On the rooftop of one of Dong Fus residences, three people were standing together.
Zuo Mo truly is a formations genius. Such a short period of time and he could comprehend
[Skyring Moon Chime Formation], really powerful! Luckily, we did not offend him that day. A
red-robed male stared at the mirage and praised.
These three were the customers that had Zuo Mo process the Inky Black Lotus Seed.
Humph, hes a zhuji xiuzhe. He can only take advantage of outside forces, what can he
accomplish? The snarling man snorted.
Its good to have low cultivation. The eagle-nosed man said darkly.
You want to use force? Dont forget that he has a powerful shixiong! The snarling male shook
his head and said. All three of them were extremely wary due to Wei Shengs strong
performance.
We dont have enough people. His shixiong isnt a bad substitute. The eagle-nosed man said.
The snarling man still shook his head. Hes only in zhuji. No matter how skilled his formations
are, it is still limited.
Its alright as long as he has talent. The red-robed male suddenly opened. This isnt Tian
Huan Realm, it is not easy to find xiuzhe skilled in formations. Wei Sheng might be powerful,
but he is just one person. Us three brothers do not have to be afraid.
The red-robed man held great authority among the three. Since he said so, the other two had no
objections. Also, what the red-robed man said was the truth. There were many xiuzhe that knew
formations, but those that could be called skilled were extremely rare. Those that had some
reputation, either their price was too high, or they were unwilling to risk their own personal
safety.
The snarling man smiled, and said, Thats true. If he dares to have other thoughts, the new
Black Lotus Yin Banner that we just forged can be tested.
The eagle-nosed man furrowed his brows. But how to persuade Zuo Mo? That guy isnt easy to
fool, and we cannot use force.
The red-robed male was very confident about this point. He smirked. Temptation! Thats easy
with someone like Zuo Mo. Even a person as obsessed with the sword as Wei Sheng is wont be
immune.
As the three talked, Zong Ming Yan had reached the edge of the [Skyring Moon Chime
Formation].

The moment the formation had activated, Zong Ming Yans mind had blanked for a quick instant
but he quickly recovered. His steps were not rushed or slow, looking like a calm and relaxed
expert. Only the shocking presence he was releasing expressed that the desire for battle inside
had reached a peak.
Zuo Mos figure had disappeared into the formation.
The blue-green mist spread, forming its own little world. Countless rings of light in various sizes
were nimble and lively. Occasionally, two rings of light would hit earth other, and chimes like
that of glass would sound, clear and crisp. The chiming that passed through the mist were hard to
follow, and echoed.
What entered the eyes was blue-green mist and the swimming rings of light. Not just Zuo Mo,
even the jade pieces and metal nails on the ground had disappeared.
Ding ding dong dong!
Zong Ming Yan couldnt help but snort. As the first seat of the younger generation of Dong Qi
Sword Sect, he followed his master in cultivating the sword, and had a very basic knowledge of
formations.
However, so what?
He was not afraid in the least.
One sword breaks all methods, that was a sword xiu! He had not reached that amazing step, but
his opponent was just a zhuji. A xiuzhe only in zhuji, could he block the sword?
He didnt believe it!
As for his conflict with Zuo Mo, he had long forgotten about it. He had never kept it on his mind.
A disciple of his sect being banned, that was because his abilities were not as good as others. He
was too lazy to care. He didnt have especially bad feelings about Zuo Mo. Of course, he didnt
have any good feelings either.
It was a pity that Yu Bai and Nan Men Yang had matched up.
He was very regretful as he looked at Yu Bai and Nan Men Yang that were fighting heatedly
behind him, and then looking at Zuo Mo ahead, he felt it was very bland.
Even if it wasnt Yu Bai, he would be fine with Nan Men Yang, but why was it Zuo Mo?
As he sighed in regret, he summoned out his flying sword.
This was an extremely unique flying sword. The shape was like a section of old plum. There
were many joints on the plum branch, appearing like a bone, old yet resilient. On the plum
branch were seven fresh and blooming plum blossoms, so fresh that they seemed to have just
been picked. A faint fragrance floated in the air.

[Seven Plum Sword]! Zuo Mei Tian actually passed [Seven Plum Sword] to him! It seems he
doesnt have low hopes for Zong Ming Yan!
This is the first sword of Dong Qi Sword Sect, [Seven Plum Sword]? As expected, it is
extraordinary! Zuo Mei Tian is really brave. Such a good sword, he actually gave it to a ningmai
disciple!
Conversation rose, as everyones expressions were full of awe.

[Seven Plum Sword] was the most famous flying sword of Dong Qi Sword Sect, ranked fourthgrade. It was most suited to Dong Qi Sword Sects [Plum Cutting Sword Scripture]. However,
the reason that this sword was so famous was because its owner was Zuo Mei Tian.
In Sky Moon Jie, Zuo Mei Tian was a very famous personage. Everyone was especially wary of
his cruelty and ruthlessness. These years, he had not been seen much in public. The rumors had
been that he had been focusing on teaching his disciple. Looking at it now, it was true. To pass a
great treasure like [Seven Plum Sword] to Zong Ming Yan, it could be seen just how great his
love was.
The people that had been drooling over [Seven Plum Sword] quickly killed their greed. It was
easy to deal with the young one. But if they fought the young one, and the old one came, they
couldnt deal with that.
The faces of the four from Wu Kong Sword Sect were heavy. Even though they hoped that Zuo
Mo could leave the competition as soon as possible, but when they saw Zong Ming Yan take out
[Seven Plum Sword], their expressions changed slightly.
Zuo Mei Tians ruthlessness was famed, and look at it, his disciple Zong Ming Yan was not a
merciful person either. They were not worried that Zuo Mo would lose the competition, because
it was already set in stone. They were worried that Zuo Mo would be injured. If Zong Ming Yan
was as heartless as his master, Zuo Mei Tian, then today, Zuo Mo was in danger!
However, at this time, Zuo Mos big formation was already up and running. Through the mirage,
it was hard for them to see the situation inside the formation.
Inside the blue-green formation, the rings of light danced, a crescent moon hanging over top of it
all!
In opposition to what everyone had imagined of Zuo Mo being on guard to face a great enemy,
Zuo Mo was extremely busy. Taking advantage of the cover the formation was, he had silently
sneaked to the other end of the formation, continuing to set up child formations for [Skyring
Moon Chime Formation]?
One more child formation, the power of the [Skyring Moon Chime Formation] would increase a
bit.
His movements were extremely quick. After continuously putting down forty-five child
formations, he was extremely practiced.
He guessed that Zong Ming Yan would try to test the waters in the beginning so he decided to
make good use of the time.
You hit, I set!
Wasnt it just competition on speed?
Lets see if you first break the formation, or I first finish the formation!
Zuo Mo thought hatefully inside, his hands moving even quickly.
No one would have thought, that in such a time of emergency, Zuo Mo was still persisting in
laying down formations.
Translator Ramblings: Poor Zuo Mo, all he wants to do is be left alone.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Forty


Three Heavyweight News
Um, I forgot to credit warlord212 for the last chapter but he is up there now.
This chapter has been brought to you by me, and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter One Hundred and Forty Three Heavyweight News
Wei Shengs clothing was ripped, his entire body covered in countless little sword cuts, and he
appeared to be out of energy. If the judges hadnt seen that he was still stubbornly persisting,
they would have stepped in a long time ago.
Gu Rong Pings expression was peaceful, the darkness and viciousness on his face had
disappeared long ago.
He could be favored by so many to win, and had never lost until now, how could he be unable to
see his own situation? When he realized he had made a mistake and started to adjust himself, Wei
Sheng was instantly placed at a disadvantage.
Heart Lake Sword, heart like a lake, undisturbed.
Wei Sheng struggled to keep going. If it wasnt that he had a more profound knowledge of sword
essence, and could dodge or stop Gu Rong Ping at the last possible second, he would have lost
already. Even so, he still could not stop Gu Rong Ping from attacking. Gu Rong Ping had
changed from the previous impatience to a relaxed ease as his advantage was slowly increased.
The sword scriptures were different, and the roads they walked would be drastically different.
Some sword scriptures were forceful and explosive, what they needed was each attack to be like
a thunderbolt, without keeping anything back. Some sword scriptures walked the path of
entanglement. They did not pursue killing with one attack. They went for continuously
accumulating an advantage like pulling silk off a cocoon, to exhaust the opponent and in the end
leave them with no energy to attack.
Gu Rong Ping was so.

Gu Rong Ping truly isnt bad. is [Heart Lake Sword] is very advanced for such a young age!
Bao Rong hadnt reached this level when he was his age. Tian Song Zi couldnt help but praise.
After a slight pause, he couldnt help but keep praising, This Wei Sheng is even better! Ningmai
stage and he could cultivate to Heart Turn Sword Essence, even more rare is that his personality
is resilient and strong. Even though he is clearly trapped, he still does not submit. This boy will
be great in the future!
Yes. Im afraid that Dong Fus sects will have to eat behind Wu Kong Sword Sect in the future.
Ling Ying Sects leader Feng Qing glanced at Tian Song Zi.
These words were what many of Dong Fus little sects were thinking. Many people did not have
good expressions.
Tian Song Zi knew it, but didnt state it, only faintly saying, The strongest rule, the power
naturally determines the benefits. Or does Sect Leader Feng believe Wu Kong Sword Sect does
not have the power?

Feng Qing choked but he defended himself, Im afraid that Wu Kong Sword Sect will have too
big of an appetite!
Dislike rose in Tian Song Zis heart. He turned to look at the surrounding people, and said, Wu
Kong Sword Sect has been keeping a low profile all these years. If they were truly greedy
people, with Ice Dragon Swords strength, there would not be many in Dong Fu that could stop
him, much less Sect Leader Pei and the others who are also jindan.
These words instantly made many people relax greatly. They found it was true when they
thought about it. If Wu Kong Sword Sect were really those kind of people, did they even have
the power to resist?
Wu Kong Sword Sect is a part of Dong Fu. Wu Kong Sword Sect is strong, our Dong Fu is
strong. Dong Fu is strong, everyone here will naturally benefit. Tian Song Zi said meaningfully.
Right! I see that Sect Leader Pei and the others are not those that would steal from others. If our
Dong Fu can take a step up among the thirteen primary towns, thats beneficial for everyone!
Someone praised.
The others all agreed. No one could rival Tian Song Zis influence in Dong Fu. Over all these
years, he was mostly fair in his conduct, and everyone trusted him. The Ling Ying Sect leader
was on the side, his expression changing.
Tian Song Zi suddenly stood up. Everyone knew that he had something to say. The surrounding
instantly feel silent.
There are many people that do not know my initial motivation for holding this Sword Test
Conference. Tian Song Zi started slowly. His voice was not loud, but there was an extra hint of
solemnity. Everyone could help but perk their ears to listen. Those that were clever already
realized that the matter was not simple.
Maybe some people know, but its possible some people do not know. Tian Song Zi paused
slightly, before continuing, Bloody Sky Metropolis Jie is showing signs of instability.
First, it was silent, then it was a ruckus.
No way!
How is it possible?
Werent there many experts holding the fort in Bloody Sky Metropolis Jie?

The panicked voices flowed. These light words were like lightning on a clear day, instantly
shaking up all the sect leaders. Even Ling Ying Sects leader was struck dumb. Gradually, fear
started to show on his face.
Bloody Sky Metropolis Jie was the buffer between xiuzhe and yaomo. That was the paradise
where countless xiuzhe hunted yao. As long as you had the power, you could receive anything
you wanted. Jingshi, talismans, rare materials
Expert after expert became famous there. It was the backyard of the xiuzhe, the material store of
the xiuzhe.
So when Tian Song Zi said Bloody Sky Metropolis Jie was showing signs of instability, they
hadnt managed to react to the connection between the Sword Test Conference and Bloody Sky
Metropolis Jie, had not reacted to the implications behind this news.

Only when people remembered how Bloody Sky Metropolis Jie had formed did they suddenly
wake.
Even the most composed person had a changed expression.
Is the news confirmed?
The market didnt have any news at all!
Terror quickly spread across the people. They were only asking out of reflex. Everyone knew if
Tian Song Zi could say this publicly, the news definitely would not be fake. Tian Song Zi had
more avenues of information than they did.
Tian Song Zi lightly sighed. Everyone, please prepare. This time, the first one hundred local
xiuzhe, I will open the secret realm for them.
This was another heavyweight news!
Secret realm!
A secret realm was like an extremely small jie. No one knew how a secret realm formed, but
each jie would have secret worlds. But how many there were, it was unable to be predicted.
Secret realms were all different, but there were similarities. In every secret realm, the ling energy
inside would be plentiful, and it would be extremely beneficial to cultivate inside. Inside the
secret realm, due to the high density of ling energy, and the lack of people, there would be large
numbers of rare ling grasses and beasts. And in some secret realms, there would also be
residences left behind by ancient xiuzhe.
No one would have thought that Dong Fu Hall would have a secret realm!
As expected of the true master of Dong Fu. The wealth he possessed was truly unimaginable.
This secret realm had been discovered by my ancestral founder. However, it is a pity that xiuzhe
above jindan cannot enter, so this secret realm has been unopened until now. Since a great
calamity is approaching, the disciples of all sects, as long as they enter the top one hundred, they
can enter this secret realm. But as to what they can obtain, that will be up to their good fortune.
Tian Song Zi said.
A small smile finally came onto the fearful faces of those large sect leaders.
If they were talking about disciples from the top ten, then Dong Fu might not have many, but the
top one hundred, the core disciples of most of the Dong Fu sects were basically all in there.
Elders efforts! We really are shamed! A sect leader suddenly came out and bowed deeply to
Tian Song Zi.
The other sect leaders also came out and bowed in thanks to Tian Song Zi. To open ones secret
realm and allow disciples from other sects to enter, such a matter, it had never been heard of
before. Tian Song Zis breath of mind received everyones admiration. Even Ling Ying Sect
leader Feng Qing did not hesitate in bowing.
There was no joy on Tian Song Zis face. He sighed, The fire of succession. Only when there is
fire can it be passed on!
Everyones hearts started to fall. From Tian Song Zis words, they finally realized that the
situation was far worse than they had imagined.

Zong Ming Yan saw those nimble rings of light but still unhesitatingly stepped into the
formation.
Once he stepped in, the scenery around him instantly changed.
Limitless blue-green mist covered the empty wilderness. He was in the middle of the wilderness,
his surroundings empty. In the sky above his head, light rings of various sizes swam like schools
of fish.
In the faint blue-green mist that was like what occurred during sunrise, the chimes from the
collisions became even more ethereal. Those mischievous and nimble rings of light danced high
above his head, and even higher up, a crescent moon hung, its faint shine falling on this patch of
wilderness, giving even the mist a blurry shine.
This was a formation that a zhuji could set up?
Zong Ming Yan was slightly surprised and had to reconsider Zuo Mo.
He may have little knowledge of formations, but he had received Zuo Mei Tians attentive
teachings, and a half-assed outer sect disciple like Zuo Mo could not compare. Even though he
was not clear what formation Zuo Mo had set up, but he could clearly understand the meaning
contained in the formation in front of his eyes.
He decided to put away the disdain in his heart. This Zuo Mo could be considered a genius in
formations.
Zong Ming Yan casually walked, strong confidence revealed in his expression. So what if the
other was a formations genius? He did not have any fear in his heart. Quite the opposite. He, who
had thought he had picked a bland opponent, started to feel anticipation.
Zong Ming Yans desire for battle increased even more!
Gently shaking his wrist, the plum branch in his hand sliced and made a circle.
A plumb blossom gently trembled and fell of the plum branch, floating into the sky.
[One Cut Plum]!
This plum flower silently shattered in the air, turning into a pink ball of light. The light seemed to
be pulled by two invisible hands in opposite directions, quickly pulled long and thin. A circle of
faint sword essence, with the pink ball of light as the center, suddenly spread out towards the
surroundings.
The long and pink sword essence had no warmth or gentleness. Quite the opposite. When it truly
became a sword energy, the harsh and sharp sword essence reached a peak!
Zong Ming Yan narrowed his eyes, and his expression just like that pink sword energy became
sharp and menacing!
The energy being disrupted, the dancing rings of light in the air were like startled schools of fish.
The chimes of collisions were like rain!
Go! Zong Ming Yan shouted, the plum branch in his hand leading.
The long and narrow pink sword energy suddenly brightened, drawing a bright pink light in the
air as it headed into the rings of light.
The sword energy was extremely sharp. The rings of light were like bubbles, popping upon a
single touch.
The fragments of light rained down like snowflakes.

Under the bright moonlight, inside the blue-green mist, the dots of broken light flushed away the
killing intent carried by the sword essence, and added a hint of poignancy.
Hiss! Zuo Mo couldnt help but inhale sharply.
This Zong Ming Yans power wasnt on the same level as that Chao An he had encountered
before. The power in that one blow was enough to frighten his little heart to beat rapidly.
If before, he had some thoughts about attacking first, Zong Ming Yans sword strike instantly
made him understand how unrealistic his thoughts were.
The only method he had now was defense!
This was the only thing he could do. If Zong Ming Yan found his position, Zuo Mo was sure that,
with his half-learned sword essence, he would lose within three blows.
After making a decision, the last stray thought in Zuo Mos mind was erased. His hands became
even faster.
Fast!
Faster!
Translator Ramblings: A few scene changes multiple things are happening at once. The
possibility of war makes people panic, especially if there were no major wars for three thousand
years. Fighting and killing is a whole different matter compared to a war.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Forty Four


Strange
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and cactuar0.
Chapter One Hundred and Forty Four Strange
Zong Ming Yan quickly frowned.
Those rings of light had appeared extremely weak, like bubbles that popped upon contact, but
there really were too many of them!
His sword essence had, without him detecting it, had much of its momentum lost and its strength
had been worn down by half. However, the rings of light in the sky did not seem to decrease in
number.
Even more he still had not found Zuo Mo!
His eyes looked in the surroundings and didnt find any shadow of Zuo Mo. He knew that, in a
formation, one should not believe what the eyes showed. His consciousness had also swept
through the surroundings, but it would always encounter strange interference that prevented him
from detecting Zuo Mo.
All of this indicated that the formation Zuo Mo had constructed was not normal.
Zong Ming Yan did not panic, however. Everyone always saw him brimming with murderous
intent and assumed that he wanted to find Zuo Mo to immediately to defeat him. In reality, it was
not so. He enjoyed battle and enjoyed the pleasure of being challenged. The stronger Zuo Mo
was, the more his desire for battle rose.
He planned on destroying Zuo Mos entire formation!
What would be more pleasurable than destroying the others strongest defense from the ground
up? This made Zong Ming Yans blood boil!

The noise when [Skyring Moon Chime Formation] had been activated had truly been scary. Not
just the audience in Dong Fu, but even the other xiuzhe in the Great Pine Pavilion had been
shocked by the sudden light!
Many xiuzhe were curious but they still didnt dare to walk around freely, all staying in their
original places. As for the powerful xiuzhe, they did not have any hesitations about running
towards the source of the light.

Su pushed her movement speed to the maximum. To stop other xiuzhe from ambushing her along
the way, she released the ling power in her body spread out without anything holding back. The
Black Daze sword under her feet released a powerful magnetism. Different from the howling
flight of other flying swords, the flight of the Black Daze sword was more like gliding. But due
to its terrifying speed, it howled as it broke through the air. She did not conceal herself as she
raced towards the source of the light.
That cowardly guy that ate soft rice actually did not send out the paper crane!
In flight, Su couldnt help but furrow her brows.
She held extreme dislike for Zuo Mos conduct. He clearly knew his strength was not enough but
still acted on his own, it was very easy for his companions to dislike him. Even though Su did
not think of Zuo Mo as her companion, but she needed Zuo Mos help to forge her flying sword.
This meant that she could not disregard Zuo Mos safety.
If Zuo Mo could not enter the top ten, then no matter how high of a rank she achieved, it would
be useless.
She disliked people who increased the difficulty of things she had to do!
Only this once!
After this affair ended, she never wanted to see this dislikable guy again.
Suddenly, she thought of what Lin Qian Shixiong said to her, and her heart became even more
irritated.

Chang Heng still casually strolled, but the light released by the [Skyring Moon Chime
Formation] was peerlessly bright, far surpassing the light of any sword energy.
Thats an interesting guy. He said to himself, before leaping into the air. Carrying a patch of
bloody light, he disappeared.

At a hill, a figure suddenly disappeared, and then suddenly appeared not far away, before
disappearing, and then appearing even further away. Because of the speed of movement, before
the afterimage at the previous place had vanished, he would appear at the next position.
Where he passed, he left behind a string of shadows, extremely strange.
Gui Feng was using his ghost movement to run. In the blink of an eye, he was far away, his
speed not much slower than a flying sword.

But that direction


The xiuzhe along the way gaped as they stretched their necks to look in the direction that Gui
Feng disappeared in.
It was the place that was flashing with light!

Luo Li had thought of being a hunter waiting for his prey, but he was slightly shocked by the
light that had suddenly rose on the horizon.
That scene
It definitely wasnt something caused by a sword energy or something like it. Truthfully, a person
that could create [Self Separation], there wouldnt be any problems with his intelligence. He
quickly knew what it was!
Formations! Only formations!
He instantly was speechless. Of all the xiuzhe that attended the last round of the Sword Test
Conference, only one person would lose the face of sword xiu to make formations, there was
only Zuo Mo.
Such a person that does not endear himself to others. Luo Li said helplessly to himself.
Grabbing the flying sword, he stood up. He had spent the longest with the sect leader and the
others, and knew their thoughts better.
Maybe he should go and kick the other out of the competition to spare him from further
humiliation
He wasnt certain about the sect leader, but he believed the other shifu definitely would not
oppose it.
In reality, curiosity dominated Luo Lis heart.
That fight with Zuo Mo had been the most important turning point in his life. At the beginning,
he had been slightly angry and hateful, but gradually, as Luo Li reflected on himself, his hate
towards Zuo Mo had disappeared without a trace. If not for Zuo Mo, he was afraid that he would
still be living his days out muddle-headedly like before.
That would be terrible
But he definitely didnt have any thoughts of thanking Zuo Mo.
He was naturally curious. When Zuo Mo had fought with him, the difference in cultivation
between them had been great, but in the end, Zuo Mo had won. He had seen Zuo Mos fight in
the Sword Test Conference. The difference in cultivation between Zuo Mo and his opponent had
been even greater, but Zuo Mo had won again. All those dazzling tricks that Zuo Mo had showed
had greatly expanded his vision but he couldnt help but find it pitiful.
He really couldnt understand, with Zuo Mos great talent in the sword, why would he not
cultivate the sword, and rather learn all those middling things.
In the time that he had created [Self Separation], his comprehension of the sword was much
deeper than before, and his eyes were naturally better. With one look, he had seen that while Zuo
Mo had many tricks up his sleeve that made people gasp in awe, but it was a great obstacle for
him in his future cultivation of the sword.

Heterogeneity was the greatest taboo of sword xiu.


But Luo Li was still curious! Even though he was shaking his head inside, but he was still
curious what Zuo Mo would do. This guy was extremely cunning and slippery, with an endless
bag of creative tricks. Adding on that he was an extremely treacherous person, and if he could
ambush someone twice, he definitely wouldnt do it only once.
This Sword Test Conference, there were many experts. The difference between Zuo Mo and
them was even greater. He might not understand Zuo Mo very well, but he felt that Zuo Mo was
not someone that would easily surrender. If he didnt cause some trouble, he probably wouldnt
surrender.
Would not easily surrender, had many tricks, and some power
This kind of weirdo, how could people not have a little bit of anticipation?
It would be good to see. Luo Li spoke to himself as he stepped on the flying sword and left the
mountain valley.
Chang Heng was the first person to appear outside the formation. Right after, Su and Gui Feng
almost appeared at the same time.
The appearance of three experts caused the xiuzhe that had been hiding in the dark to feel as
though his heart had jumped out of his chest. These three, none of them were easy to deal with
them. Luo Li quickly appeared not far away. Facing the three experts, he was extremely calm.
Without a word, he sat down cross legged on the ground, his flying sword floating in front of
him.
Hm. Chang Heng turned with slight shock to look at Luo Li.
Su and Gui Feng turned their faces at the same time to look at Luo Li.
In their perception, the seatedLuo Li was disappearing bit by bit. But they could clearly see him
sitting there, not having moved at all.
The three of them were slightly shocked. It seemed that every disciple of Wu Kong Sword Sect
had some skill.
Im not fighting! Nan Men Yang bellowed, and then took a step back. No matter who it was,
realizing that there were strong opponents in the surroundings, would not be willing to use up all
their power.
Yu Bai did not say anything but backed up a step at the same time.
He didnt want to fight either. With so many experts at the sidelines, if even one of them
attempted an ambush, he wouldnt be able to deal with it.
However, the attention of this group of people was not on them but on the formation.
The two exchanged a look and, at the same time, turned to look at the formation, waiting to see
the spectacle.
Not long after, another person came to spectate. It was the yellow-face man that Chang Heng had
encountered previously. Occasionally other xiuzhe would land outside the formation. Those that
dared to come up to watch at this time were experts that had confidence in their power.
Up until now, other than Wei Sheng and Gu Rong Ping that were still fighting heatedly on the
main peak, basically all the experts had gathered here.

Such a strange scene, not just the competitors but even the xiuzhe watching the mirage in Dong
Fu were gaping.
What, what was this?
Everything in front of their eyes, no matter what direction they looked, carried a strange
atmosphere.
A formation with a moon hanging over it, and a crowd of people outside.
All of them were experts almost all of the top ten from the rankings were present. It was
like a gathering of experts. If they didnt have the power, they would be too embarrassed to come
over!
The battle between Wei Sheng and Gu Rong Ping which had been watched by the most people
quickly was abandoned by everyone. Everyones turned to Zuo Mos position.
Strange!
Too strange!
If these experts didnt come from different sects, and different places, some with stronger
backgrounds than Dong Fu Hall, they would definitely be suspicious that someone was
manipulating the competition from the shadow. But right now, all of them were performing the
same action, stretching their necks out, looking into the formation projected by the mirage.
It was like there was an astonishing beauty hiding in the formation, and she was completely
naked!

Pei Yuan Ran and the others were also gaping. Behind them, the crowd of Wu Kong Sword Sect
disciples were dumbstruck.
What what are they doing? Yan Le stammered out.
Pei Yuan Rans lips trembled, but he didnt know what to say. He looked dumbly at the scene and
couldnt say anything. Xin Yan, who was usually stoic and wooden, had his mouth wide open,
his eyes bulging. Shi Feng Rong was covering her mouth, her eyes widened greatly, not noticing
how strange it was that she was maintaining this position.
They want to watch? Yan Le hesitantly stammered out, To watch they arent
fighting
Pei Yuan Ran felt blood rise to his throat, his vision turning black and almost fainted. When he
raised his head again, his face was bright red!
Heavens! Ancestral Masters! Forgive this disciple!
If before, he had only been regretting his action of making Zuo Mo attend the last round of the
Sword Test Conference, right now, he wanted to smash his head against the wall and kill himself!
Yan Les words swirled in his head.
To watch they they wouldnt fight
Translator Ramblings: Now everyone except Wei Shengs fight is gathered in one place. This
was what Fang Xiang was doing in all those previous chapters. These people are important, some
more than others.

Pei Yuan Ran finally regrets his decision. Wei Sheng and even Luo Li understands Zuo Mo better
than the sect leader. I wonder if its the generational gap?
Eating soft rice is an idiom usually used for men who dont work or rely on their wives to
support the family. Its different from being a boytoy which usually is described as a little white
face.
The next chapter is also one of my favorite chapters

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Forty Five


Nan Men Yang! A Real Man!
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and cactuar0.
Chapter One Hundred and Forty Five Nan Men Yang! A Real Man!
Different from the outside, Chang Heng and the others could clearly see every move that Zong
Ming Yan made inside the formation. However, Zuo Mo was still hidden away.
Zong Ming Yans [One Cut Plum] brightened many peoples eyes.
In reality, Zong Ming Yan did not feel well. It was like his punch had landed in soft cotton, his
power undetectably being dissipated.
He couldnt help but frown. It was not because he felt it was difficult, but out of dislike. He
disliked this kind of soft attack very much. Most sword xiu did not like fighting with warm and
soft enemies. If they did not kill off the other in one attack, then what awaited them was endless
trouble!
Such enemies usually had great defenses. It was extremely hard to get them in one attack. As the
battle progressed, it would become a labor of endurance. The endurance of most sword xiu
definitely was not good.
He hadnt thought that this Zuo Mo would also be this way!

Zong Ming Yan started to rub his forehead.


Zuo Mo had been frightened by Zong Ming Yans sword strike, his little hands shaking as they
were setting up the formation, almost ruining it. Dont think that he was familiar with [Skyring

Moon Chime Formation], he was only familiar with the theory. The amount wasted by the
enormous formation was astounding. Normally, he didnt have that much jingshi to waste.
Luckily, the first sword energy had been blocked. The replenishing rings of light didnt look as
though they were damaged. Zuo Mos heart landed slightly.
He had just started studying [Skyring Moon Chime Formation]. How to set it up, what materials
it needed, it was more than enough for him. As to the different variations, he was not familiar
with them. There was no way around it, there was not enough time. From the time that the sect
leader had notified him about attending the last round of the Sword Test Conference until now,
he had used almost all his time on this, and had just barely understood how to set it up.
Even more so, what he was setting up this time was a seventy-two child formation [Skyring
Moon Chime Formation]!
For that Kun Lun introductory formation jade scroll, he had gone all in.
Even though he was greatly rushed, but he still tried his best, his hands fleetingly fast.
The great pressure did not make him panic. Quite the opposite, it was like he was shot with
chicken blood, his entire body was abnormally exuberant. His consciousness was completely
spread out, his attention focused like it never had been before, the uncompleted formation and
the components appeared so clear in front of his eyes.
Because he had practiced finger movements for so long, his ten fingers were extremely nimble.
[Vajra Profound Sutra] had been in effect, and his physical strength far surpassed most sword xiu,
and he could easily lift up the large pieces of material. His consciousness was even more
terrifying, covering the entire formation. Any change would be unable to escape his
consciousness.
He was a blurry shadow, furiously setting down formations!
Countless materials flowed like water from his hands, accurately thrown to the positions needed.
His fingers were like fresh flowers blooming, after images flickering as ripple after ripple of ling
force was sent from his constantly moving fingers into the formation.
With the aid of the formations power, Zuo Mo hid himself so no one else could see him.
No one knew where Zuo Mo was. Everyone had assumed that Zuo Mo was hiding in a certain
place, waiting for an opportunity to give Zong Ming Yan a killing blow at the most dangerous
time!

No one knew that the enormous formation in front of them was an incomplete formation!

Raising his head to look at the crescent moon in the sky, Zong Ming Yans fretful heart calmed.
He was proud but he was not dumb. To be able to stand out from so many other disciples, who
would be dumb?
Those rings of light definitely were not the crux to breaking the formation, he thought. He stood
in his spot, the light rings in the air were like free fish, not attacking him.
Was it that crescent moon?
The bright moon over his head seemed far yet real, not appearing at all like something created by
the formation. Truthfully, it wasnt just the bright moon. Everything inside this formation was no
different than really. But he knew that everything he saw were all created by the formation, they
were all fake.
There was no formation in the world that could not be solved, just like there was no invincible
sword xiu in this world. Any formation would have a cover door. The so-called cover door
referred to the Achilles heel of the formation, and the crux to solving a formation.
Where was the cover door of this formation?
The light in Zong Ming Yans eyes flashed. He stood like that in his spot and started to think.

Yu Bai, who had just stopped fighting, felt someone come close and turn to look. He saw his
previous opponent, Nan Men Yang, come over with his exaggerated sword. He couldnt help but
be on his guard.
Whats he doing? Nan Men Yang bellowed, a face full of curiosity. His voice was like thunder.
Even though he had pushed it extremely low, everyone could hear him.
Yu Bai first stilled, but seeming that Nan Men Yangs expression did not seem like he was
joking, he suddenly remembered that Nan Meng Yan had no family or sect. Then he understood.

Sword xiu with no family nor sect could not compete at understanding all of the fundamentals
with seedlings, like Yu Bai, that had been nurtured from childhood.
Yu Bai noticed that other peoples eyes had wandered over to him.
Composure Master said, I need to be warm and respectful
Gently coughing, Yu Bai warmly explained, Zong Ming Yan is thinking of a way to solve it

That needs thinking? Nan Men Yang stared with his bell-sized eyes, unconsciously raising his
voice as he examined Yu Bai, Just chop him down! An says you guys, you are so womanishly
fussy. If it was an
Nan Men Yangs usual voice was loud enough. This was like thunder roaring, so loud that Yu
Bais ears rang.
The tendons in Yu Bais forehead jumped slightly. He hadnt thought that this guy would be so
chatty!
It was unknown who laughed first. The tendons in Yu Bais forehead started to pulse again.
Composure
He forced out a smile, This formation is extremely difficult, it would be hard to solve
Nan Meng Yang once again interrupted Yu Bai, looking at him in puzzlement, his eyes widening
again, What solve, just cut it down! But that guys body, tsk, more petite and supple than my
lover, about the same as you. If it was an
The more Nan Men Yang talked, the more excited he got. His right hand in a fist, he tore apart
his clothing, furiously beating his masculine chest that was as hard as metal, breathing heavily
through his nose like a gorilla.
Petite and supple
Yu Bais handsome face instantly twisted, the ling power in his body almost running out of
control like a tsunami that could erupt at any time!
Composure

Nan Men Yang did not detect it. He was like a furious bull, staring at the formation, wanting to
try it out, but his mouth did not stop for a second.
Look at what swords you guys are using, they are thin like chopsticks, are they even usable? A
man should use a sword like this! He raised the door-sized sword in his hand, and waved it, and
proudly said, Dont understand? Im telling you this in confidence. Ans lover told an, need big!
Need big! Need bigger! A real man uses a big sword!
He suddenly closed his mouth, hesitating for a moment before lowering his voice to ask
suspiciously, Are you really a man?
Flash, everyones eyes moved to Yu Bai.
Having reached the limits of his tolerance, Yu Bai finally could not bear it any longer. His face
was as black as ink, his handsome features twisted, screw composure! The flying sword in his
hand pointed straight at Nan Men Yang, angrily shouting, Shut up! Lets fight!
Nan Men Yang paused and then furiously shook his large head. I only fight with men!
Disregarding Yu Bai completely, he raised his large sword, pointed it at the formation and
excitedly hollered, Ans going to chop the formation! An has never chopped something like this!
Ha ha, take a good look at an! Real Men, will chop the formation!
Finishing, with his enormous sword held up high, in big strides, he charged at the formation like
a bull!
Yu Bai was enraged, and completely lost his mind. He shrieked, Stop! Youre mine!
He turned into a white flash, chasing Nan Men Yang and headed into the big formation.
Su had been laughing on the inside hearing Nan Men Yangs sinister words, but this sudden
change shocked her so much she couldnt stop them in time!
Damn it!
There were now three people in the formation. Zuo Mo definitely wouldnt be able to deal with
it. Thinking about this, she panicked, stomped her foot and charged into the [Skyring Moon
Chime Formation] with the Black Daze Sword.
Gui Feng saw Su rush into the formation, a cold light flashed through his eyes before he also
disappeared.
The heart of the yellow-faced man also moved, and he unhesitatingly charged into the formation.

Chang Heng said to himself, Interesting. Finishing, he headed to the formation, but compared
to the others, he walked calmly.
Luo Li stood, and brushed off the non-existent dust on his clothes. He said helplessly, Why am I
in the same sect as this guy?
As he spoke, he started walking towards the formation.
The other xiuzhe hesitated a while. Right after, there were people continuously charging into the
formation.
The xiuzhe that charged in were all very excited, aching for battle! They were all xiuzhe that did
not fear the competition!
Almost all the experts in the Sword Test Conference were now inside the formation. It was a rare
chance to be able to compete with these experts. Such a great gathering, if they missed it, it
would be the regret of a lifetime.
Swoosh swoosh swoosh!
Figure after figure charged into the formation.
A formation brimming with blue-green mist under a crescent moon was like a gigantic whirlpool,
continuously sucking the surrounding xiuzhe inside.

Everyone that was watching the competition in Dong Fu was dumbstruck!


Even though they could see clearly from the mirage, but the sounds were not passed on. The
people on the outside didnt know what happened. What was occurring in front of their eyes far
surpassed their imagination.
The experienced Tian Song Zi was also gaping, Why is Baier so excited? What happened?
He had never seen Yu Bai so excited. In his memories, his beloved disciple was forever warm
and elegant, respectful and polite. This what was this?
No one was able to tell him.

All those that charged into the formation were experts, the best and most exceptional disciples of
the sects in Sky Moon Jie, the greatest among the younger generation. They all had great
potential , they carried the hopes of each sect, what they learned were the best teachings in Sky
Moon Jie, and what they used were the best talismans and flying sword
They
They seemed to be crazy at the moment, furious desire for battle on each persons face. Their
eyes, as they looked at the formation, were filled with yearning!
That formation, just how seductive was it
No matter if it was those floating in the air, or on the ground, time seemed to stop at this
moment. The xiuzhe, regardless of their cultivation, they were gaping, their expressions dumb,
limbs motionless, not making a sound as though they were statues.
At this moment, Dong Fu was so quiet that it was possible to hear a needle land on the ground.
Translator Ramblings: So an is a form of I. Ive left it in because it really shows Nan Men
Yangs origins. An is most commonly used in the countryside, and is a more rustic form of
I.
Chicken blood is a reference to a folk remedy (Wikipedia). Basically, someone is highly excited
and motivated. You could say it is a shot of adrenaline.
The fight has officially started for Zuo Mo now that people have moved into his formation belt.
Of course, this chapter is hilarious, but it is also my favorite because its the beginning of the
payoff and climax in this arc.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Forty Six


Zuo Mos Sorrowful Indignation
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiofDoom, and cactuar0.
Chapter One Hundred and Forty Six Zuo Mos Sorrowful Indignation
Yan Les expression was extremely strange. He focused on business, and naturally could
understand lip language. Those that also knew how to read lips were also like Yan Le. They were
stunned by Nan Men Yangs onslaught of words.
The surroundings were too quiet, so quiet it was strange. Yan Le tried to open his mouth a few
times, but couldnt say a word. This strange silence was like a kind of pressure. No one spoke at
this time.

Pei Yuan Rans mind was a mess. He had completely lost the ability to think. The strange scene
in front of him was the straw that broke the camels back. All of his intelligence, his experience,
none of it was useful right now. His gaze was blank.
Why did the sect have such a problematic person
Buzz buzz buzz.
Like the sound of bees flapping their wings, the noise steadily grew, gathering into a flood,
booming. Everyone felt their ears ring. In one instant, they could not hear anything.
After a while, this wave of sound calmed and became peaceful.
Shock, weirdness, amazement all kinds of emotions were mixed together on the audiences
faces. No one could keep their calm.
This Nan Men Yangs mouth is stronger than flying swords! Yan Le couldnt help but praise.
Thats right, he really was praising! His societal experience was extremely rich and knew just
how effective a mouth was at many times.
Shi Feng Rong hurriedly inquired. After Yan Le finished narrating Nan Men Yangs words, the
others were also dumbstruck.
Who could have thought such a brute looking man was able to say such dark and malicious
words.
Oh, maybe Nan Men Yang didnt do it on purpose.
The only person that might not think that way would probably be Tian Song Zi. Tian Song Zi
could imagine just how fiery the anger inside his beloved disciple was burning for him to lose his
composure so! It was like he was experiencing it himself, killing intent on his old face.
At this time, the surrounding sect leaders naturally wouldnt touch his sore spot. It wasnt all due
to the inheritance that his ancestors left him that Tian Song Zi was able to control Dong Fu for all
these years. His own personal power was unfathomable.
Very quickly, Real Men! Use Big Swords! quickly spread through the xiuzhe. Those xiuzhe
that used big swords raised their heads and puffed their chests. However, most of the xiuzhe
looked as though they didnt know whether to laugh or cry.
They finally understood what had happened.
The blankness in Pei Yuan Rans eyes disappeared greatly. Everything had a limit. Sometimes,
this limit would change, as the attribute of the matter changed. Like using formations. Before,
Pei Yuan Ran felt it was embarrassing. However, when the formation that Zuo Mo laid down
could cause such a big ruckus, and caught a crowd of experts, Pei Yuan Ran felt somewhat proud
inside.
Which other persons disciple could make such a ruckus with a formation?
No matter if Zuo Mos formation won or lost in the end, after this competition, maybe there
would be people that would mock Yu Bai, but there definitely wouldnt be any mockery of Zuo
Mo and his formation.
They finally figured out what had happened, but the curiosity the people had did not decrease the
slightest, and became even stronger.
What was happening in the formation?
So many experts gathered inside one formation, what changes would occur?

How would they solve the formation?


Everyone was filled with curiosity!
At this time, Xiao Guo suddenly made a sound of surprise, Shixiongs formation seems
seems to be getting bigger!
Xiao Guos words instantly caused other peoples eyes to land on Zuo Mos formation.
Xin Yan suddenly said, Yes, it is getting bigger.
Shock came into the eyes of Pei Yuan Ran and the others, the disciples were puzzled.

One here, one here, and another one


Hurrying about setting up the formation, Zuo Mo was dumbstruck. What were these people
doing? Were they crazy?
He only paused for a little while and then was enraged.
Just Zong Ming Yan alone was enough to exhaust him, you guys are coming to add insult to
injury!
Thats right, Zuo Mo instantly set down his opinion of the peoples conduct: adding insult to
injury!
Even though he didnt understand what great grudge these people had against him, but it was
clear that they were not coming to help him.
Adding insult to injury was the most distasteful action! Zuo Mo gritted his teeth!
At this time, he was not thinking about winning at all. So many experts entering the formation, to
even think about winning was a delusion.
Villains! You crowd of villains! Ge will destroy all of you!
He seemed to see the Kun Lun jade scroll reluctantly waving its hands to say goodbye to him,
going further away from him. Zuo Mo was indignant and sorrowful. It was this indignation at his
grievous losses that allowed Zuo Mo to quickly make a decision. He was going to give these
people that were adding insult to injury a memorable lesson!
Want to benefit from ge, gell ruin all your teeth!
He didnt think about retreat. His eyes entirely red, he used the most poisonous and malicious
words to curse this damned crowd of people! At the same time, his movements became even
faster, all kinds of materials streaming from his hands like they didnt cost jingshi.
He felt that the blood in his body was burning, he was completely furious!

Ah! The formation is still getting bigger!


It really is increasing!
Didnt you hear Nan Men Yang say? Want big! Want big! Want bigger!
If Im Zuo Mo, Id first leave, since everyone is trapped in there! Ha!
Escape? Where would he escape? The moment he leaves the formation, he would just be
waiting for death! Everyone outside is stronger than him. Without the protection of the
formation, he would die even quicker.

The sound of discussion rose. Everyone was puzzled by why Zuo Mos formation was getting
bigger. But in all the versions, no one could guess what Zuo Mo was planning. Was Zuo Mo still
delusional!
No one would think that, there were too many experts in there!
All the experts in the Sword Test Conference were in there!

Pitted against any competitor Zuo Mo would undoubtedly lose, much less the experts that were
gathered together. Everyone just needed to make a move, and this large formation would
undoubtedly collapse!
Collapse?
Zuo Mo was very clear what the people in the formation thought. He smirked coldly inside, his
hands not slowing down. [Skyring Moon Chime Formation] was a fourth-grade formation. If
there werent some strong points, how would it have the qualification to be a fourth-grade
formation?
Maybe they could break the formation, but it definitely wouldnt break in one or two moves. If
they could not find the cover door of the formation, they didnt need to think about breaking or
solving it using brute power alone.
This cover door was not that easy to find
Zuo Mos actions were lightning fast. This caused the formation to quickly grow and was easily
detected by the xiuzhe outside.
But no one dared to go into the formation!
The formation had now become the most dangerous area in the entire Great Pine Pavilion!

After Su entered the formation, she felt her vision blur and she was situated in the wilderness.
The cold moonlight fell down like water. She felt as though she was in a dream.
Looking in the surroundings, everything was blurred. She didnt know where to start.
That damned guy that ate soft rice! Why didnt he send out the paper crane yet?
She was extremely panicked! She completely forgot, that up until now, Zuo Mo had not relied on
her, and wasnt actually eating soft rice.

After Nan Men Yang charged into the formation, he sunk into a berserker rage. His [Vajra
Scripture] was at his maximum, his entire body covered in the golden light, together with his tall
and brawny figure, he was a god of battle!
He gave a shout, and the [Mountain Breaker Sword] viciously chopped!
This sword chopped towards the rings of light in the sky!
An extremely dense sword energy left the sword, howling as it rushed into the rings of light in
the sky!
The chimes were endless, like countless glass bottles were being broken.

Gui Feng, who had just came in, saw this scene and jumped in shock. Such a forceful blow, if it
was heading for him, no matter if he fended it or dodged, it would not be easy!
Yet what surprised him was this blow that even he found difficult to defend was not effective in
the slightest against the formation. It was like the fierce and sharp sword had broken the surface
of the water. After the ripples passed, the surface of the water resumed normality.
Gui Feng quickly found the weirdness. He had headed in immediately after Su, but he did not
find Sus figure, encountering Nan Men Yang instead.
Did this formation have the ability to move others?
His consciousness was also being disrupted by an invisible ripple and was ineffective in the
formation.
Gui Feng was in awe.
Different from other people, he did not underestimate Zuo Mo. He was skilled in underhanded
and obscure skills, and did not walk the path of righteousness. Higher cultivation did not mean
that one would definitely win.
Seeing so many people enter the formation, but not having found the cover door, it was not an
easy matter to leave.
Then, where was the cover door?
Like Nan Men Yang, the first thing many xiuzhe did after they entered the formation was release
attacks. However, to everyones surprise, it was like their attacks had entered the sea, ineffective.
Some powerful experts instantly stopped their futile efforts and started to think about the
problem of solving the formation.

Zong Ming Yan hadnt expected so many people would charge into the formation at once. He
couldnt help but frown.
This group of people were really irritating! Like a swarm of flies! He hadnt solved the formation
yet, but these people were coming in to also meddle, he was extremely displeased.
Even though he still hadnt found the cover door of this formation, but Zong Ming Yan did not
believe that he could not harm a zhuji disciple.
But now that the situation was completely disrupted. This group of people had appeared out of
nowhere, each of them seemingly insane, attacking in all directions as they came in.
Suppressing the irritation inside, he smirked coldly as he put away the Seven Plum Sword.
You group of dumbasses! Ill watch to see what you guys can do!
After having tried one blow, Zong Ming Yan was certain that this formation was not as simple as
imagined.
He was extremely shocked inside. Such a formation, was it something a zhuji xiuzhe could set
up? He didnt quite believe it, but the truth was right in front of his eyes, and he had personally
tried.
Maybe, it was a good thing these people have come to be cannon fodder.

Zong Ming Yans eyes became even colder.

Zuo Mo was still buried in setting up formations. His speed was extremely quick. He had already
reached the sixty-third formation. In other words, there were only nine child formations until he
could complete the seventy-two child formation [Skyring Moon Chime Formation].
A [Skyring Moon Chime Formation] with seventy-two child formations!
Humph humph, you guys can get a good taste!
Already extremely tired, Zuo Mo suddenly felt his body full of energy, his movements even
faster, as he continued his expansion.
He had great expectations for the seventy-two child formation [Skyring Moon Chime
Formation]. Even he hadnt ever seen it before! What power would it have? There wasnt a better
place to try it out than right now!
At this time, a tragic howl could be heard from inside of the formation!
Translator Ramblings: When they say all the experts, it means the strongest of the bunch thats
inside the Pine Pavilion. So there are lots of people still outside who are hiding away or
watching.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Forty


Seven Born to Battle
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and cactuar0.
Chapter One Hundred and Forty Seven Born To Battle
A xiuzhe had just tried to use a flying sword to attack the crescent moon hanging in the sky.
Unexpectedly, this action seemed to enrage those harmless looking rings of light! First, a light
ring surrounded his body, then contracted. No one had expected a light ring that seemed to break
with a touch could contain such great power!
The sword xiu instantly howled under the noose, his eyes flipping over, and fainted.
Just as everyone was shocked, a black gold chain came down from the sky and accurately
lassoed this unconscious xiuzhe.
Unconscious, judged loss, elimination from the competition.
A cold voice sounded in everyones ears and then it was quiet.
Everyone knew it was the judges hidden in the shadows that had acted and saved this xiuzhe. The
judges that had been invited to the last round were all jindan, and clearly were not average. They,
naturally, could enter and leave the formation with ease, while the competitors were trapped by
it.
Other than shock, they also felt inspired. In terms of cultivation stages, there was only one stage
between ningmai and jindan, but there was an vast difference in the power!
For these ningmai xiuzhe, becoming jindan was their dream, but they knew how difficult it was.
Ningmai could be considered the backbone of Sky Moon Jie, and only becoming jindan would
mean you were considered an expert. Each year, countless people were blocked by this gate, but
no one would retreat. If they passed this gate, that was really like carp jumping over the dragon

gate, and soaring sky high. After that, there was also a long lifespan. Everyone wanted to live
longer.
But right now, they could only admire and be envious. They were young. Even though they had
exceptional talent, their cultivation was shallow. In this one hundred xiuzhe, there was only a few
that had reached the middle levels of ningmai, and increases in cultivation were harder the
further it went. Achieving jindan before the age of fifty was an extremely difficult
accomplishment.
Zuo Mo also heard the words of the judges, but at this time, he didnt have any thought of
admiration. He almost started cursing! That judge had spoken without any warning, and
frightened his hands into shaking, almost damaging the child formation he was setting up.
Luckily, he forced ling power in and managed to stabilize it.
Everything inside the formation was under the cover of his consciousness. He naturally was clear
that the xiuzhe had been attacked.
Hee hee, this was just the beginning!
But he didnt relax his hands, he could not spare any attention.
There were still six child formations before he could complete the seventy two [Skyring Moon
Chime Formation]s !
Once he completed the seventy-two child formations, not only would the formation become
more powerful, but the formation would gain an additional ability, control. He had controlled
formations before, but those were only simple formations. He had never controlled such a
complex and large formation. The difference between a formation that was controlled by a
person, and one that was not, was the distance between heaven and earth.
Most importantly, if he could control such a big formation, it would be an extremely exhilarating
experience!

Inside the formation, those experts were not dumb, and had their own calculations.
Su bolstered her ling power, the magnetic force forming an extremely small magnetic shell
around her to protect her. Lu Li continued to wait for prey. Even though his Void Realm was
suppressed in the big formation to a smaller area, but he was still motionless as his mind quickly
pondered how to increase the size of his Void Realm in this formation.
These two both were planning to defend and counterattack; one was in action, and the other was
silent.
Su frantically moved through the formation. Where was the damned guy hiding?
And Chang Heng, he idly wandered through the formation in curiosity. The yellow-faced man
behaved similarly to him.
Gui Fengs movements were hard to follow, suddenly appearing and disappearing.
Only Nan Men Yang was still howling, each blow faster than the previous as he sliced at the
rings of light. No one dared to come close to him. Seeing Nan Men Yangs masculine and brutal
demeanor combined with his fanatical expression, anyone that went near him would most likely
get chopped down as well.

Yu Bai was like a gust of wind, face dark as he searched for Nan Men Yangs figure in the
formation.
It was strange. The formation was just a bit over ten mu, but the people in the formation seemed
to be in a vast wilderness. They could occasionally encounter another person, but the majority of
the time, they could not.
Compared to the ease of some of these xiuzhe, the fighting between the other xiuzhe in the
formation was much more brutal.

In the air above the big formation, the two judges idly talked, occasionally glancing at the
formation. One of the judges was wearing a green Taoist robe, a cloth over his head, his name
was Wu Ling sanren. The other person was extremely imposing, wearing ling armor. His name
was Wei Fei, and one of the well-known experts in Sky Moon Jie.
This Zuo Mo is really to my taste. What hes planning is the seventy-two child formation, oh,
hes pretty decisive. Wu Ling Sanren said, The setup of the formations might be very rough,
but it still stuns me that he actually managed to finish this much, considering hes in zhuji.
Haha! Hearing this, Wei Fei teased, A pity that Pei Yuan Ran and the others wont give this
disciple to you. It is a pity. If he can learn from you for a few years, there probably wouldnt be
anyone that could rival him in the younger generation in the field of formations.
Wu Ling Sanren was one of those rare sword xiu that was skilled in formations, which was why
Wei Fei said what he did.
Wu Ling Sanren shook his head, Such a talented disciple, which sect would not treasure him?
Between his words, he was extremely depressed. He had long wanted a disciple suited to him,
but never found one. The disciples he had now, they did work hard to cultivate the sword, but
had no interest in formations. His skill in formations was Wu Ling Sanrens proudest skill. Now
that no one would inherit these skills from him, how could he not be bothered?
If Wu Kong Sword Sect allowed Zuo Mo to enter his sect, he was willing to spend anything. But
he also knew that was impossible. Even a normal sect wouldnt agree, much less Wu Kong
Sword Sect that was aiming to recover its former glory!
Ice Dragon Swords reputation was not loud in the ears of normal xiuzhe of Sky Moon Jie, but to
jindan like him, Ice Dragon Swords reputation was clear.
Haha! Sanren is also troubled! This Zuo Mo will not enter another sect, but Wu Kong Sword
Sect is definitely having a headache! Wei Feis words were full of amusement.
Wei Feis words were accurate!

Pei Yuan Ran felt an extreme migraine. Now that the situation was like this, he wasnt thinking
about victory or defeat. In his perspective, victory did not matter, but how could he teach Zuo
Mo?
Undoubtedly, after this competition, Zuo Mos fame in the field of formations would reach a new
height.

In their eyes, Zuo Mo had originally been a problematic youth, extremely hard to deal with.
Now, this problematic youth had become famous, very famous! Thinking that the sect would
have a famous, wealthy, and extremely talented but problematic youth, Pei Yuan Ran felt like he
was a mouse pulling a turtle, not knowing how to act!
Right now, he did not know that Zuo Mo was penniless. Zuo Mo had won such a large sum of
jingshi last time, even a sect leader like Pei Yuan Ran would never ever dream that Zuo Mo
would be so crazy as to spend it all!

Zuo Mos heart jumped. The formation was under great pressure. He hadnt thought that Nan
Men Yang would be so crazy, one blow after another, each blow stronger than the previous.
Does ge have a disagreement with you?
Zuo Mo was extremely furious. If this kept on going, this [Skyring Moon Chime Formation]
would really quickly break under the brute force of this barbarian!
He knew that he couldnt just set up formations again. If the formation broke, there was no
meaning to him setting them up.

Inside the [Skyring Moon Chime Formation], Nan Men Yang had really gotten into the swing of
it! He had given seven or eight blows, but it did not look like there was any effect on the
formation.
His thought was extremely simple, if he hadnt broken this thing yet, then it was because he
didnt use enough power.
Nan Men Yang went completely crazy!
The golden light on his body brightened, under that thick golden light, even the large sword
seemed to be covered with a tangible gold light. His hair standing on end, he looked like a
furious golden lion.
His eyes turned golden, staring at the rings of light above the sky.
They seemed to have felt the danger from Nan Meng Yang. The rings of light that had been
swimming freely started to gather around Nan Men Yangs position.
The presence that Nan Men Yang emitted was truly too strong, like the sun in the dark of the
night.
Yu Bais black face became even darker as he spotted the light, a cold light flashing through his
eyes. He unhesitatingly twisted his body and started to fly in the direction of Nan Men Yang!
Feeling the battle intent and strong presence from Nan Men Yang, everyone understood his next
attack would be extremely powerful!
Oh, is the formation about to break? Zong Ming Yan thought with slight boredom. He swung
the plum branch in his hand. Maybe he should go find an opponent.
Who should he find? That Chang Heng seemed pretty strong

It wasnt just Zong Ming Yan that thought so. Nan Men Yangs presence was truly too
astonishing that even a person as unconcerned as Chang Heng usually was couldnt help but
change expression.
Sus expression changed dramatically!
It was over!
The next attack that Nan Men Yang would give, even she wouldnt dare to meet it!
Any xiuzhe inside the formation wouldnt dare to meet Nan Men Yangs blow!
But if Zuo Mo lost, her flying sword
The formation was going to break
Her heart was filled with hopelessness!
Just at this time, a change suddenly occurred.
Argh!
An angry howl that could rival Nan Men Yang suddenly sounded inside the formation. A gigantic
golden person with blurred features came down from the sky and landed heavily in front of Nan
Men Yang.
Seal soldier!
Nan Men Yang raised his golden eyes, and grinned! He was completely sunken into a berserker
rage. Anyone that appeared in front of him would be immediately torn to pieces!
Die!
A roar like that of a lion, Nan Men Yangs eyes glared angrily, the golden light on his body even
brighter, as he swung his giant sword with both hands heavily at the seal soldier.
Feeling the threat and battle intent from Nan Men Yang, the seal soldier revealed a pair of eyes
among the blurred features.
A pair of eyes filled with indifference and pressure!
Countless seals that covered the armor of the seal soldier like earthworms suddenly light up. Its
thick left leg heavily stomped, causing the ground to shake. Its right leg soundlessly moved back,
the right fist moving in front of its body. Its lower half positioned like a bow, while the right fist
was like a readied arrow waiting to be launched. It faced the golden sword energy, and released
its punch!
Born to battle!
An authoritative and deep voice sounded out like thunder rolling through the clouds.
A tangible golden light fist shot forth from its punch like a heavy hammer and thundered forth!
Golden sword energy vs golden light fist!
Translator Ramblings: The seal soldier is one of Zuo Mos emergency measures. I wouldnt say
that Nan Men Yang is stronger than everyone else inside the formation, just that hes the one
reckless enough, in his ignorance, to attempt something which is more foolish in other peoples
eyes. On the other hand, he was right.
The story wont drag on for the entire time. In fact, the biggest complaint people have after
reading the whole thing was that Fang Xiang was in a serious hurry to finish the story. That
would be about two years at this rate, so if I havent burned out by then, Id love to read your

comments after it ends Its almost a habit that all of his novels dont have perfect endings. Card
Disciple was also very rushed.

Chapter One Hundred and Forty Eight Seal Soldier
Bam!
The deep reverberation of the collision seemed to beat on everyones hearts. There was no
explosion like they had imagined, no light blazing in all directions, the two balls of golden light
had been like two flames colliding with each other and extinguishing at the same time.
Nan Men Yangs entire body shuddered, the anger inside his golden pupils increasing slightly. He
shouted, Go die!
The golden light of the large sword in his hands was even brighter than before and it was like a
shining sun. In the blink of an eye, even the crescent moon over the large formation seemed to
have lost its sheen and become dull!
[Mountain Breaker Sword]!
The tip of the sword started to tilt downwards. The howl from the golden sword tip slicing past
air started from a nearly non-existent sound and then suddenly, like a monster being torn apart,
gave an extremely shrill shout!
The completed sword energy of the golden sword was like a golden crescent moon, howling as it
flew towards the seal soldier!
The seals covering the body of the seal soldier became even brighter, like there were worms
moving. On that blurred face, that pair of eyes became abnormally cold and distant, but its
expression was indifferent as usual.
Born to Battle!
The words were heavily enunciated out from the mouth of the seal soldier slowly and clearly, his
leg moving as he prepared to punch!
Another punch came!
The golden light in the shape of a fist left its hand, the booming it created was like the lava
roiling in the deep of the earth. It charged forward forcefully like it could not be blocked!
Bam!
It was another heavy and deep reverberation. The ground suddenly shook, also shaking peoples
hearts!
Some xiuzhe that had been watching changed their expressions and started to fall back.
Nan Men Yangs gigantic figure shuddered again. The hairs that stood up on his head seemed to
be blown by the wind restlessly.
Both sword blows had been ineffective. The battle desire and the craziness in Nan Men Yangs
chest shot to its peak! The golden pupils started to burn as if they were two golden balls of fire.
The golden light over his body started to retreat inwards. On his body, a thin, almost tangible,

and golden armor suddenly appeared. The thick golden energy that surrounded that gigantic
sword in his hand spat and wavered like a flame!
As though it felt the final battle had arrived, the bright seals on the silent seal soldier seemed to
have come alive, like bugs that moved along the soldiers armor before quickly flowing towards
the right fist it had beside its chest.
The authoritative eyes of the seal soldier became even deeper, almost until it was a void, empty
of everything!
Go die! The angry roar was like a bolt of lightning. The blue-green mist around him suddenly
exploded outward, with him at the center, clearing out one zhang of empty space. The power of
one shout was extremely mighty!
He slowly moved, creating a blow! There was not one speck of sound!
But it was as though every muscle in Nan Men Yangs body was following this sword. When the
sword was just halfway through the air, a suffocating pressure pressed the ground into cracking!
Born to battle! The deep voice was not loud but it carried a different kind of power that
directly pierced the heart. A resolute conviction was in these words, filling everyones hearts.
All the seals on the body flooded into its right fist. Its body became extremely dull. The entire
body, other than the fist that was even brighter than before, the other parts started to blur like it
was golden mist that could dissipate at any time.
Its action was the exact same as before!
Step and then punch!
A transparent fist exploded from its right fist, a fist that looked as though it was carved from
clear crystal!
The fist didnt hit Nan Men Yang. When it was halfway there, when Nan Men Yangs sword was
in the midst of falling down, it suddenly exploded!
Bam!
This muffled sound was even deeper than the last two, but the xiuzhe who saw this fist and hand,
and heard this muffled thunderous sound, couldnt help but shake!
Bam bam bam! Nan Men Yang went back three steps. The golden armor over his body became
golden light again, his expression slightly wilted.
Opposite him where the seal soldier had just been standing, there was nothing left!
Good opponent! Nan Men Yang might be slightly wilted but still couldnt help but shout in
admiration, his eyes slightly regretful as he looked at the spot the seal soldier had disappeared.
Just as this time, Yu Bais furious voice that was full of hatred passed into Nan Men Yangs ears.
Nan Men Yang! Ill kill you!

In the corner of the [Skyring Moon Chime Formation], Zuo Mo spat out a mouthful of blood,
startling to the eye when the bright red blood landed on the ground. He had been controlling the
seal soldier. Nan Men Yangs last blow far surpassed the limits of his tolerance. He had just been
controlling the seal soldier to face Nan Men Yang yet he had been wounded in one blow. He
couldnt help but feel deep awe at Nan Men Yangs power!

He wiped away the blood at the corner of his mouth, expressionlessly baring his teeth.
Barbarian! Go play with Little White!
Forcibly controlling the turbulent ling power in his body, he gritted his teeth and continued to set
up formations.

The xiuzhe inside the formation had been enchanted and deeply shocked by the three rounds
between Nan Men Yang and the seal soldier. It was a straightforward competition of only brute
power, there was no technique, no dodging!
Many people were awed. Nan Men Yangs strength had been judged to be not bad, but due to the
fact he was a grassroot cultivator, he was not judged very highly by other people. The great
majority only believed that he would have a pretty good future. No one could have thought that
he would have such terrifying power.
Thinking about Nan Men Yang looking like a god of war just moments ago, many peoples hearts
became slightly cold.
But what was even more unexpected to them was another person, Zuo Mo!
Seal soldiers might be rare, but it couldnt enter the eyes of these people. The absolute majority
of sword xiu would snort at these kinds of seals. Of course, the crux of the matter was the power.
In the seal soldiers they had seen before, not one had been so powerful!
Most importantly, the person controlling this seal soldier was a xiuzhe in the stages of zhuji!
This upturned many of the fixed ideas in their heads.
The difference between stages was not something that just a seal soldier could change. However,
Zuo Mo accomplished it. Even though he had just been on par for three moves, but in the eyes of
everyone else, it was already a miracle.
Up until now, the weakest competitor of the Sword Test Conference still hadnt shown his face.
This undoubtedly implied another bit of information.
Zuo Mo still had tricks left!
The great formation still was unmoved. The rings of light that had gathered over Nan Men
Yangs head had all dissipated, moving around freely like they did before.
Zuo Mos surprising performance attracted the interest of many people. Like Chang Heng. He
had only found the formation interesting which was why he entered, but Zuo Mos strong
performance created great interest from him.
He was very curious, just how far could Zuo Mo go?
It wasnt just him that had the thought.
In the air, Wu Ling Sanren sighed gently in surprise. Not bad. To be able to meet Nan Men Yang
head on three times, he used the seal soldier well.
A strange light came into Wei Feis eyes. His consciousness seems very large. That is rarely
seen. Is Wu Kong Sword Sect also skilled in cultivating the spirit?
Without consciousness, he cant afford to play with formations. Wu Ling Sanren said,
expression normal.
Thats true. Wei Fei nodded and said.

Behind the black gauze, Sus little mouth almost couldnt close. The shock that the three rounds
had given her was too strong!
Different from other people, she had seen Wang Shixiong at Ling Ying Sect use the seal soldier
when Zuo Mo had gone to challenge Ling Ying Sect. It looked as though it was the same seal
soldier, but the difference in power was drastic. She suspected that this seal soldier could even
defeat three of the seal soldiers she saw last time.
Maybe, he really did have some moves, and didnt need her help
For the first time, she started to waver in her own thoughts.
She suddenly remembered the words that Lin Qian Shixiong had said to her. A copper coin
appeared in the hand that was hidden in her sleeve. At the center of a coin, an eye had been
carved. The eye on the copper coin started to glow slightly.
At the same time, the expression of the yellow-faced man slightly changed, his body became
motionless. He seemed to have suddenly turned to a piece of rock, without any of the presence a
person would have.
The copper coin in Sus hand brightened and then extinguished.
The rock in Sus heart landed. Everything about Lin Shixiong was good, but he was just slightly
paranoid. Up until now, she still didnt quite believe what Lin Shixiong had said. If it wasnt that
Lin Shixiong had taken out her sects token, she probably would have already attacked him.

Just now, someone used [Fire Eye] again. Pu Yao suddenly came out. Pu Yao suddenly came
out.
Zuo Mo didnt have the time to pay attention to him. As long as you remain silent, no one can
find you.
You seem to have encountered trouble. Pu Yao asked in interest. In his eyes, Zuo Mo was
afraid of death, and always put his own security at the most important position. He hadnt ever
saw Zuo Mo respond like so when he was discussing the problem of safety with Zuo Mo.
This group of people is pouring salt onto the wound! Zuo Mo gritted through his teeth, his
hands not slowing.
You want to give your all against them? Pu Yao clearly was laughing at his misfortunes.
Zuo Mo was too lazy to pay attention to this perverse renyao who had nothing to do.
You have the yao seed, why dont you try to use the yao seed to manipulate the consciousness
and control the formation? Pu Yao kindly suggested.
Use the yao seed to manipulate the consciousness and control the formation? Zuo Mo reflexively
shook his head. The Skyring Moon Chime Formation needs all seventy-two child formations to
be completed before it can be controlled.
You dont just have the Skyring Moon Chime Formation. Pu Yao said disapprovingly.
Right! Why hadnt he thought of that!

Zuo Mo felt his vision light up. He had made a great misunderstanding. All of his mind had been
thinking about completing the seventy-two child formation [Skyring Moon Chime Formation]
and completely forgot that he hadnt just set up the formations for [Skyring Moon Chime
Formation]!
This was an extremely large scale formation belt!
Actually, other than increasing the rate your consciousness grows, the yao seeds other use is
splitting your mind! Pu Yao was strangely good today. It was extremely rare that he would take
the initiative and teach Zuo Mo without Zuo Mo needing to pay jingshi.
Splitting my attention? Zuo Mo irritably rolled his eyes, At this time, you want me to split my
attention?
The so-called splitting the mind is referring to splitting your consciousness into several parts, all
of them working at the same time on their own matters. Pu Yao said faintly. The great majority
of yao will split this consciousness, and some yao are born with this ability. Truly powerful yao
are able to split their consciousness into thousands of portions, and are peerlessly strong!
But at this time, Zuo Mo completely did not think about why Pu Yao was so strange today, he
was shocked by Pu Yaos words!
It was like a bolt of lightning hitting his mind.
Consciousness splitting!
If he split his consciousness and they all did their own things at once
Up until now, he had always thought of the consciousness as one whole entity, and had never
thought about splitting the consciousness to do different things at once.
He suddenly thought of ling power. Ling power could break off and merge. Was the
consciousness like ling power as well, able to be broken up and merged together?
If it really was possible
Zuo Mos hands which hadnt stopped since the beginning, suddenly stopped in the air!
Translator Ramblings: Yu Bais bai is the character for white, which is why Zuo Mo called him
Little White. Of course, Little White (Xiao Bai) in Chinese is also used for a very naive and/or
dim-witted person

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Forty Nine


Fire
This chapter has been brought to you by me, and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter One Hundred and Forty Nine Fire
Watching Yu Bai and Nan Men Yang embroiled in battle, no one could look away.
Just having gone three rounds, Nan Men Yang was completely suppressed by Yu Bai, unable to
lift his head under the blows. Yu Bai didnt use his usual style of fighting, instead each blow was

vicious, decisive, and aimed to kill, causing a chill to creep into the hearts of everyone watching
inside the formation.
When a composed person was angry, it was very frightening!
Probably the only person that found it boring was Chang Heng.
This level of fighting and killing, it really couldnt alert his mind. He scanned the surroundings.
Everyone had stopped their actions. The three rounds between Nan Men Yang and the seal
soldier had shaken the skies, and attracted almost all the xiuzhe inside the formation. Right now,
the fight between Nan Men Yang and Yu Bai was not as blood-rousing as the previous fight, but
the technique was no-less spectacular.
One had a grassroots background with no family or sect, the other the beloved disciple of the
ruler of Dong Fu!
Once the two really became serious, the scene was amazingly spectacular, the spectators
becoming intoxicated!
Without detecting it, all the xiuzhe inside the formation had gathered together again.
Chang Heng raised his head to look at the rings of light swimming in the air and the crescent
moon high up, his expression slightly moved. He took away his gaze because he noticed, not far
away, Zong Ming Yan was looking at him. Their gazes met midair, striking like two extremely
sharp swords, sparks flying!
Two stubborn and proud young experts exchanged a look.
Fight? Zong Ming Yan opened coldly, his gaze full of challenge.
Not interested! Chang Heng only glanced at Zong Ming Yan before moving his eyes back
towards the sky. The rings of light that were freely swimming in the air seemed to be more
attractive for him.
Zong Ming Yans eyes slightly shrunk but he didnt make another challenge. Chang Hengs
viciousness and brutality was the greatest in the Sword Test Conference. Every competitor, when
they faced this brute, couldnt help but shrink inwards, including Zong Ming Yan.
Zong Ming Yans expression turned back to normal as he said faintly, Why dont we use the
breaking of the formation to wager victory and defeat?

Chang Hengs face was still upraised, not looking at Zong Ming Yan even once, as he said, Oh,
Im afraid you might not even break it.
Zong Ming Yan could clearly feel Chang Hengs low opinion, and his expression was extremely
ugly. He snorted coldly. You may be underestimating me a little too much.
You could try. Chang Heng pointed at the sky, and said, face normal.
Hearing this, Zong Ming Yan was too lazy to respond to Chang Heng. The Seven Plum Sword
appeared in his hand.
A shake of the wrist, and three plum flowers turned to three streams of light that flew into the
sky.
Zong Ming Yan wanted Chang Heng to see his strength so his first move was his most
accomplished, [Three Play]!
Three sword essences were like three slinking fish as they circled around and shot at the crescent
moon in the sky!

Zuo Mo had been pondering how to split his consciousness when he suddenly detected an
abnormality in the formation and instantly woke up.
F***, would they never stop? Having just made a tiny bit of headway, Zuo Mo was so angry he
swore! When he found the person responsible was Zong Ming Yan, the anger in his heart shot
upwards!
He remembered. This guy was the first person that had made trouble!
It was an anger that came from the chest, and hate from the gallbladder. Zuo Mos anger erupting
from his heart, instantly sunk into his second rage!
Ges long found this guy an eyesore!
Zuo Mos eyes were green. The two hands that had stopped started again. He finally understood.
Given the time and place, it wasnt the momentgood time to ponder about how to split his

consciousness. These people that had poured salt onto the wound might all be terribly evil, but
each of them had the power to damage the formation. If he couldnt complete the seventy-two
child formation [Skyring Moon Chime Formation], he couldnt do anything to them.
Without him detecting it, he had started to think of ways to deal with the experts inside the
formation. He completely forgot that each person in there had power that far surpassed him.
However, Zuo Mo was facing the same difficult problem as before. He must, before he could
complete the seventy-two child formation [Skyring Moon Chime Formation], stop these people
from damaging it!
The seventy-two child formations were just on the edge of completion, and these people had
come out again to make a mess.
Just now, he had used up the seal soldier to stop Nan Men Yang from breaking the formation.
Now, what could he use to stop Zong Ming Yan from breaking the formation?
Did you think ge only had a seal soldier?
Zuo Mo gritted his teeth as he cursed Zong Ming Yan inside a hundred times. But, at the same
time, his consciousness silently flowed forth like a stream of water.
His body slightly leaned forward, his back curved. He looked like a curved bow from far away.
He maintained this strange position without moving, only his eyes slightly narrowed like a
hunter waiting for his prey.

Zong Ming Yans three sword essences were like piranhas that landed in a rich swarm of fish!
Any ring of light that tried to come near the sword essences were instantly sliced to pieces. The
three spiraling sword energies did not look like they were affected at all. Carrying a hiss that
could shock souls, they headed straight for the crescent moon in the sky!
In his eyes, that bright moon was clearly the crux to breaking the formation!
If he could destroy the moon, the entire formation would be solved.

The layers of light rings were like a thick coat, unable to be damaged by knife or axe. But if a
narrow needle was pushed, it could easily pierce through this layer of cloth.
The three sword energies did not stop their spinning, forming a sharp cutting formation. Each
sword energy was like the sharpest blade, its penetrating power far surpassing normal sword
energies!
The rings of light that had blocked his [One Cut Plum] were easily penetrated when faced with
this [Three Play]!
The sword energies were as fast as lightning, nothing that the rings of light could catch up to. But
the rings of light seemed to be alive. Knowing they couldnt block the sword energies, they
headed towards Zong Ming Yan?
Ring after ring of light landed from the sky, heading to cover Zong Ming Yan.
Even as powerful as Zong Ming Yan was, he didnt easily experiment. Everyone had a deep
impression of the xiuzhe that was eliminated!
[Paired Sparrow Flying]!
Two plum flowers fell off the plum branch like two butterflies, flying around Zong Ming Yan.
Once the rings of light came at Zong Ming Yan from the sky, a clear cracking sound could be
heard before they were blown to pieces, turning into countless scattered energies!
However, the rings of light did not give up moving towards Zong Ming Yan.
Clink clink clink!
The dense crisp sounds were like hundred of glass cups being smashed at once!
The broken energies fell and floated around Zong Ming Yan, and then were blown away by the
winds created by the two plum flowers. Amidst the broken energies, Zong Ming Yan was
unharmed.
Young people, really have energy. The yellow-faced male had appeared at some time beside
Chang Heng and snickered.
Chang Heng still was looking at the sky, and responded indifferently, Hes dumb.
Hee hee, thats good. It will let us save some energy. The yellow-faced man smiled and said.

Chang Heng heard this, and turned to look at the yellow-faced male. Who are you searching
for?
Searching for? The yellow-faced man seemed to not understand.
Your strength is greater than anyone here. Chang Heng said faintly, Hiding your strength, not
competing for a rank, you naturally have other goals. Youve been constantly running here and
there, and look as though you are trying to find something. This is Great Pine Pavilion. Ive
never heard there was anything good there. That means there is only one possibility, you are
trying to find someone.
The smile on the yellow-faced males face disappeared, his eyes gradually turning sharp as a
knife.
Chang Hengs face was as indifferent as usual.
The yellow-faced man suddenly clapped his hands and smiled. Others only know you for your
viciousness and bloodthirst. No one would think you have such a mind for details. I
underestimated you.
We do not have a conflict. Chang Heng, from beginning to end, had a calm expression as
though he was speaking of something that had no bearing on him.
The yellow-faced man lightly sighed. Not here. He could not disguise the disappointment.
Thats a pity. Chang Heng said, face calm. But he didnt say why it was a pity.

In Zuo Mos sea of consciousness, Pu sat on the gravestone, his eyes looking into the distance.
There was a mirth floating at the corner of his mouth that was somewhat hard to decipher. It
seemed slightly scornful, slightly reminiscent, slightly lonely, slightly cold
Different from Pu Yao who was as steady as Mount Tai, Zuo Mo was like the arrow that was on
the thread that would sever at a touch!
That crescent moon might not be the cover door, but if it was attacked, Zuo Mo also knew what
would happen!

The time did not allow him to think more.


Three blue lights that were like chains suddenly appeared [Dragon Tying Formation]!
The position the blue chains appeared were extremely precise, exactly on the path that the
spiraling sword energies would pass.
Different than the Dragon Tying formation that Zuo Mo had used before, once the three blue
chains appeared, they knotted into a clasp, a clasp that could perfectly restrain the three sword
energies!
The three sword energies headed straight into the clasp. The strength of the clasp far surpassed
Zong Ming Yans expectations, it didnt break!
Just as Zong Ming Yan paused, a web of fire suddenly appeared in the sky.
An enormous, dense and deep blue web of fire!
The seven greenwood flags absorbed the water power, continuously turning it into wood power.
Beside each greenwood flag, there were seven second grade little Copper Lion Head Cauldrons.
Deep red flames spat out from the mouth of the lion heads on the Copper Lion Head Cauldrons
and gathered in the air. After gathering, the redness of the flames became fainter.
Around each of the seven cauldrons, with twelve jade cards as bone, and the red gold thread as
the channels, it formed a [Three-Turn Fire Formation]!
After three turns, the fire was almost completely clear!
Seven near-transparent flames flew in the sky, crisscrossing in the air.
The seven by seven forty-nine little dan cauldrons formation a [Great Li Fire Formation]!
Once the formation formed, each string of fire shook. The nearly transparent flames changed
again, and became tinged with a slightly tranquil blue.
This was the enormous tranquil blue web of fire that everyone saw up in the air!
The tranquil blue web of fire perfectly blocked the three sword energies and Zong Ming Yan!

Zong Ming Yans expression slightly changed!


This web of fire had actually cut the connection between him and the three sword energies!
At the same time, the blue Dragon Tying Chains that was around the three sword energies
suddenly pulled and swung towards the side!
Bam!
In the end, the blue Dragon Tying Chains was not able to stop the three combined sword
essences, and was shred into pieces! But with this pull and swing, the aim of the three sword
essences diverged. They brushed past that crescent moon, entering the air and disappeared!
Everyone was shocked still by the fire web that suddenly appeared over their heads!
The tranquil blue threads of fire were silent. It was like there was a enormous and tranquil blue
spider-web over their heads.
But many of them did not pale because of the thick tranquil blue fire threads. Instead the
terrifying heat that was released startled everyone! The flame was tranquil blue, how high would
its temperature reach?
The tranquil blue web of fire freely burned on. The interior of the formation had become an
enormous dan cauldron!
In the air, Wu Ling Sanren and Wei Fei saw this extremely awe-inspiring scene.
The moisture of the half-mu sized pond roiled, abnormally lively. They turned to streams of
water power, continuously flooding into the greenwood flag masts. The green and silent wood
energy entered the Copper Lion Head Cauldrons, turning into deep red fire power, then through
the [Three-Turn Fire Formation], it then entered the [Great Li Fire Formation], and knotted into a
web.
Wei Fei stared with wide eyes, muttering to himself, Uncanny workmanship! Godly technique!
Translator Ramblings: Chang Heng is so sensitive.

Chapter One Hundred and Fifty New Target
Zuo Mo was in a predicament!
Bean-sized beads of sweat flowed down his face. He had underestimated the difficulty of
controlling this [Great Li Fire Seal Formation]!
To pursue power, he had done his best to strengthen the formation from every aspect. The direct
result was the difficulty in controlling the formation had also increased. Behind the spectacular
display, the series of manipulations he had done were all highly difficult!
Even though Zuo Mos skill and control had increased, the unexpected difficulty of controlling
the formation had created a great problem for him.
His body shook like dice. In a short moment, sweat suddenly started to appear on his body. In a
moment he appeared to have been just dunked in water.
It was too hard!
Damn it!
Zuo Mo cautiously began using all of his consciousness to control every tiny change in the
formation.
Formations were a kind of work that demanded meticulousness. Any kind of mistake could
create an extremely large effect, and cause the effect of the formation to vary drastically. The
complexity of a formation belt that was composed of many kinds of formations that were
maximized for effect was even more so.
Zuo Mo did not notice that he had bitten through his lips, and blood was seeping out.
His consciousness was using the Five Colored Pagoda to carefully control the web of fire!
Having finally stopped Zong Ming Yans attack, Zuo Mo didnt have the time to rejoice. He had
reached his limits, the web of fire was almost out of control!

Zuo Mos eyes widened into circles, the tendons in his forehead pulsing. If he lost control of the
fire web, for him, that meant failure. The temperature of the tranquil blue fire was the strongest
flame that he had ever seen since he learned dan-making. The uncontrolled fire web would
collapse in an instant, and the flowing tranquil blue fire would destroy all of the formations.
That was definitely not allowed!
But he had reached the last of his endurance. He could feel the ling power in his body quickly
depleting. His weak cultivation once again became his Achilles heel! However, he had no time
to think about this right now. He had to make a choice!
He didnt even pause to think. Grunting, he gathered the last of his power!

The gigantic tranquil blue fire suddenly pushed downwards. The xiuzhe in the formation below
instantly moved. Did Zuo Mo want to get them all at once?
He didnt know his power!
A cold smile appeared on the corner of many of the xiuzhes mouths. From their perspective, a
zhuji xiuzhe was sending them a challenge through this method. These people whose eyes were
always looking upwards, how could they bear a zhuji looking down at them?
Many competitors were preparing eagerly to try to test the power of the web of fire!
Just at this time, a deep and raspy sound suddenly echoed through the formation.
Bind!
The web of fire that had covered the sky suddenly shrunk extremely, heading for Zong Ming
Yan. This caused the xiuzhe that had prepared to fight to pause. They instantly revealed
expressions of anticipation to see the result. No one would be dumb to block the web of fire for
Zong Ming Yan.
Anger came onto Zong Ming Yans face. He gave a heavy snort. His expression serious, the
Seven Plum Sword in his hand turned to a flash of dark light that headed for the web of fire.

As the Seven Plum Sword entered the air, it turned to a gigantic sword energy, forcefully
piercing the net.
The tranquil blue fire web unexpectedly shrunk again, actually taking along the sword and
person to the middle of the web.
When the sword energy sliced the web of fire, Zuo Mo spat out a handful of blood again, his face
becoming even paler.
But did the situation allow him to retreat? He suddenly bit the tip of his tongue, the salty and
fishy taste of blood making his mind alert. He suddenly pushed out his last bit of power. His
spiritual and ling power was almost empty at this time. Zuo Mo was bleeding from his nose and
mouth, but he did not detect it.
The last bit of consciousness burrowed into the Five Colored Pagoda. The Five Colored Pagoda
suddenly burst in light. Under the crescent moon, it flashed with five colored light!
Zong Ming Yans expression finally changed!
The web of fire had not neared him, but the rising temperature was already enough for him to
feel fear. He didnt dare to hold anything back. He jumped into the air, closely following the
flying sword. All his ling power was channeled into the flying sword. There was only one
thought in his mind break out of this web of fire!
Using all his power, the sword essence of the Seven Plum Sword suddenly was as sharp as the
cold wind at the top of a cliff. Suddenly, it was like there was an old winter plum standing in the
wind!
Hiss!
The flying sword broke through the fire web. Zong Ming Yan felt joy, but just at this time, a
change occurred.
Die!
Zuo Mos muffled shout was like thunder, rolling and exploding inside the formation!
The web of fire suddenly retreated inwards to the center!
Zong Ming Yan felt that the tranquil blue flame was all around him, as though he was inside a
large dan cauldron, and would turn to ash at any instant. Fear in his heart, he hurriedly activated
the ling armor!

Countless tranquil blue flames landed on Zong Ming Yans body!


Ah!
Zong Ming Yan shrieked, the light of the flying sword suddenly becoming disordered. Just as
everyone assumed at Zong Ming Yan would lose his life, the countless tranquil blue flame
suddenly disappeared.
Yet there were still many flames that had landed on Zong Ming Yans ling armor. Dong Qi Sword
Sect was not famous for its defence. The power of these tranquil blue flames were astounding.
Even with the protection of the ling armor, Zong Ming Yan was in terrible straits.
His entire body was burnt black, ling armor completely damaged. He was like a piece of wood
burnt black, dropping from the sky.
The other xiuzhe inside the formation all inhaled in shock!
Who was the person dropping down! It was Zong Ming Yan!
This formation was truly too strong, even Zong Ming Yan had been defeated. The xiuzhe that had
wanted to try solving the formation instantly stopped in their tracks. When they saw the
unconscious Zong Ming Yan and the terrible state of his body as he laid on the ground, they
really didnt bear to look at him.
Holy moly!
Even Zong Ming Yan wasnt a match. Was this formation really just something a zhuji had
made?
The same question flowed through every xiuzhe inside the formation. Zuo Mo hadnt put all of
his effort in at the end. If he hadnt stopped, then all of the tranquil blue flames would have
bombarded Zong Ming Yan. It would have been hard to say if Zong Ming Yan would have
managed to survive.
In other words, the formation that Zuo Mo setup was able to kill a ningmai xiuzhe!
Everyone jumped in fright.
In one moment, all the xiuzhe that had been fighting in the formation completely stopped
attacking each other. A serious expression came onto their faces. They were still inside the
formation!

But what they didnt realize was that Zuo Mo had no intentions of letting the Zong Ming Yan off.
At the end, even his mind had been blurred. How would he know when to stop? All of his
spiritual and ling power had been used up. He had fainted which was what had caused the flames
to disappear.

When Zuo Mo slowly woke up from unconsciousness, the desire for battle and courage had long
ago flew into the horizons.
As expected, the ignorant had no fear!
Just now, he had actually been locked in combat directly with Zong Ming Yan!
He suddenly tilted his head. He remembered now. Before he had fainted, he had actually
defeated Zong Ming Yan! He grinned, but with his expressionless face, it looked extremely
strange.
How long had he been unconscious? He struggled to get up, looking at the surroundings.
Hm, he was still inside the formation? The people still hadnt solved the formation? Zuo Mo felt
that this was extremely absurd. Even now, he still found it hard to accept that he had just
defeated Zong Ming Yan.
Zuo Mo didnt know that he had just been unconscious for the time of an incense stick. This was
due to his extremely deep practice of [Vajra Profound Sutra]. If he didnt practice that, it would
have been many days until he would wake up.
And he would never have predicted that in the time that he had been unconscious, no one tried
to break the formation.
It was the opposite. The xiuzhe in the formation started to attack other people, no matter if it was
Su or Gui Feng. Even Chang Heng had entered the fight. The other people started to clean up the
other xiuzhe inside the formation. Wu Ling Sanren and Wei Fei had started to get busy.
Chang Heng and the others were acting out of caution. They had just seen the power of the
formation. No one dared to be careless. To solve the formation, they had to put in all their power.
But if there were opponents beside them, who would dare to give their all?

If Zuo Mo thought of all this, he would definitely feel proud of himself. A cultivator just in zhuji
that made so many ningmai wary and put them on the defensive, it was enough to be proud!
However, Zuo Mo had just woken up and his gaze had landed on the incomplete [Skyring Moon
Chime Formation].
In reality, while it looked like he had won the battle against Zong Ming Yan, but in reality, he had
accomplished it through self-harm. The wounds he had received when controlling the seal soldier
to face Nan Men Yang had worsened and he completely lost the power to keep fighting.
So unprofitable!
The first thought that popped into Zuo Mos mind was this!
Looking at these Skyring Moon Chime child formations, the pain in his heart reached a peak, far
more painful than the pain from his physical body.
So many jingshi were wasted! He had bought all of these materials from the Hundred Treasures
Flying Pavilion in order to attend this competition. He felt like he had taken a large sum of
jingshi, and made an extremely incorrect investment. It looked like he hadnt gained anything at
all, and lost everything.
No!
Definitely not!
Zuo Mo gritted his teeth and sat up. He had to finish the seventy-two child formation [Skyring
Moon Chime Formation]!
He wasnt thinking of the Kun Lun jade scroll. His actions were just to not waste all the materials
he had already used. He had spent so many materials, he had to hear a sound from them.
As he endured the pain, Zuo Mo comforted himself so.
Right now, he completely did not have any energy to continue so he sat down and meditated. He
needed to quickly recover his ling and spiritual power. Otherwise, he wouldnt even get to hear a
sound.
Consequently, an extremely strange scene appeared. Zuo Mo was safely meditating in the
formation to recover ling and spiritual power while Chang Heng and the others were engaged in
fierce combat inside the formation. The other xiuzhe might not be as good as the experts but the
ones that dared to enter the formation were not ordinary in their power. These xiuzhe were not

stupid. They instantly knew what Chang Heng and the others intended, and naturally would not
wait to be eliminated.
If one person couldnt win, then two of them would fight together.
Amidst the shouts, the howls of the flying swords, the bangs and crashes, Zuo Mo silently
meditated.
Forty five minutes later, he finally open his eyes. In possession of the mo matrix and yao seed he
recovered ling and spiritual power. With the exception of Pu Yao, he had never encountered a
xiuzhe that could recover faster than himself.
Yet even in this little span of time, only five people were left remaining in the formation.
Su, Gui Feng, Chang Heng, the yellow-faced man, Luo Li.
Yu Bai and Nan Men Yang had fought too hard and expended too much energy. It could be said
that both of them had lost. They had been tricked by Chang Heng and the yellow-faced man
working together. As for the other people, they had been eliminated even earlier on. The pitiful
Zong Ming Yan had been saved by Wu Ling Sanren a long time ago.
Zuo Mo did not attend to the five people. Pushing down his wounds, he kept on setting up the
[Skyring Moon Chime Formation].
The target that he gave himself right now was extremely realistic
Finish the seventy-two child formation [Skyring Moon Chime Formation], if he couldnt
get the jade scroll, hed get experience!
Translator Ramblings: One down, five to go.

Chapter One Hundred and Fifty One Comprehension
Su suddenly moved next to Luo Li. Luo Li silently put up his guard.

You are Zuo Mos shixiong? Su decided she would do it herself. Up until now, that soft-rice
zombie still hadnt responded at all. The soft-rice zombie might not care about victory, but she
had to.
En. Luo Li made a sound in surprise.
One for each of us. Su spoke very quickly. I pick Gui Feng.
Luo Li was even more surprised. Was she Zuo Mos friend? Was it true or false? His brain
moved quickly, balancing the advantages and disadvantages.
He was still on his guard, but his mouth did not hesitate in saying, Okay, I pick the yellow-faced
one. Even if he could not judge the sincerity, but from every angle, there was no detriment to
him.
The two split apart.
The other three people clearly heard the words between the two people.
Chang Heng was not affected. The yellow-faced male smiled. Gui Feng vanished where he
stood.
Everyone was extremely cooperative, each person finding a place to fight. Only Chang Heng was
left at the original spot, raising his head to look at the rings of light, sinking into his thoughts.

Zuo Mo didnt pay attention to what was happening in the formation. After making a decision, he
didnt move from it.
The wounds on his body were greatly affecting him. When he channeled ling power, there would
be a bit of a pause. Ever since he had started practicing [Embryonic Breathing Spiritual
Cultivation], it had been a long time since he had tasted the pain of spiritual wounds. But in the
last two fights, even his most skilled consciousness could not avoid being injured.
This was the result of fighting a battle that crossed stages. Even if he managed to use the
formation as help, he still could not avoid being injured.

However, on the surface, no one would think that his channels and internal organs were
wounded. His gaze was concentrated and calm, clear and serene without a stray thought. The
finger movements were not lightning fast as before, but it was still flowing, and gave onlookers
another kind of beauty.

In the air, Wu Ling Sanren couldnt help by exclaim, This boy would definitely accomplish
great things!
Wei Fei also had an expression of admiration. With zhuji cultivation, to be able to block three
full-force blows from Nan Men Yan, to seriously wound Zong Ming Yan, he has enough to be
proud! The Heavens really have heavily blessed Wu Kong Sword Sect. One Wei Sheng, one Zuo
Mo, there will be no worries for a hundred years!
For some reason, Wu Ling Sanren suddenly sighed. Such a pity they are not born at the right
time! When the nest is attacked, would any egg escape? Such talent, if they fall early, it would be
a pity!
Wei Fei roared in laughter. I have the opposite opinion from sanren. It is because they have
outstanding talent that they need to undergo more grinding. Heroes are born in troubled times!
Without troubled times, it is rare to see heroes!
Hearing this, Wu Ling Sanren said, self-mockingly. Brother Wei is right. Old, Im old now.

Without a stray thought on his mind, or desire for victory, Zuo Mo was extremely calm. The
speed that he made formations increased greatly without his own knowledge. He seemed to not
have to think and the materials would flow past from his fingers, the spells naturally cast,
everything smooth and flowing.
In a short time, the seventy-two child formation [Skyring Moon Chime Formation] actually was
completed!

He dazedly looked at the big formation and he seemed to be in slight disbelief yet was also
slightly thoughtful.
In this short amount of time, he seemed to have experienced very much. A hard fight, receiving
serious wounds, fainting and then waking up, all of this caused his mood to go from shaking to
peaceful. In the beginning he was filled with anticipation, the desire for victory, only to have his
hopes dashed, he was left with only the desire to wound the enemies; finally he was forced to
focus on only one thing, to exclude all other thoughts and not think about victory,
He stood dazedly inside the formation, motionless like a statue.

On the top of the main peak, the battle between Wei Sheng and Gu Rong Ping was still ongoing.
Wei Shengs vision was a sea of blood, blurred. There were countless sword wounds on his body,
the bleeding was dyeing his clothing. His features were blurred. He looked as though he was a
person made from blood!
Many in the audience that were watching almost couldnt bear to keep watching at this time.
Even Tian Song Zi hadnt resisted coming over, and asking if he should stop the battle. Pei Yuan
Ran did not stop the fight. But he didnt realize that inside his tight fist, his fingernails had
deeply cut into the flesh.
Gu Rong Ping wasnt in good shape either. There were three sword cuts on his body. The three
sword cuts were not deep, but the fresh blood had dyed a patch on his chest. His sword essence
was still as free and traceless as before, but the audience could easily detect his exhaustion.
No one would feel that Gu Rong Ping didnt have enough power. After fighting so hard for such
a long period of time, exhaustion was an extremely normal state.
Gu Rong Ping knew his own situation was worsening as time flowed but he had no solution. Two
hours ago, Wei Sheng had been covered in wounds, almost wavering. But after two hours, Wei
Sheng was still persisting. He seemed as though he could collapse at any moment, but he did not.
Every time, Gu Rong Ping would feel that if he just put in a bit more power, he could defeat Wei
Sheng, but after he put in the power, he found that, other than leaving behind a sword mark on
the others body, he didnt accomplish anything. Wei Sheng still endured.

He hadnt managed to wait for Wei Sheng to collapse, yet Gu Rong Ping found that he had sunk
into a dilemma without being aware of it.
The three sword marks on his body were the proof.
His sword scripture was like unspun silk from a cocoon, setting up a large web to snare the other,
and then slowly wear away at the strength of his opponent, to let them lose all room to breathe
and die. He had successfully pinned down his opponent, but his opponent had not stopped
struggling.
The two sides entered a standoff. The others hardiness had far surpassed his expectations. His
ling power had quickly been consumed. His sword energies had slowly lost their edge. His
movements started to become slower. The other had caught onto his weakness and counterattacked!
The longer he fought, the heavier the terror in Gu Rong Pings heart grew.
Wei Sheng was like a wild beast that did not know exhaustion, like a seal soldier that did not
have life, and did not know pain. When the sword energy flashed past his body, other than a
muffled grunt, other than seeing the spray of blood, there was no other observable signs that he
was affected.
The fight between the hunter and the wild beast, the hunter was gradually losing the advantage.

Zuo Mos formation belt allowed people to see a spectacle, and made people feel surprise. Wei
Sheng and Gu Rong Pings battle made people feel awe, awe that came deep from their hearts!
Time slowly slipped by. The sound of discussion became increasingly quieter. Even more people
felt they were unable to keep watching.
Seeing a person entirely covered in blood, fighting without a sound as he struggled painstakingly,
and flying through the air as his figure wavered. The blood that was flowing down his body flung
into the air.
No one was in the mood to speak.

Even though Wei Sheng had not won, but in everyones eyes there was only his blood-covered
figure.
The battle inside the Great Pine Pavilion was still continuing. The [Skyring Moon Chime
Formation] had attracted the majority of the experts. Many people had cheered as they assumed
their chances of entering the top ten would increase. However, the developments were
completely the opposite of what they imagined.
Without the pressure of the experts, many xiuzhe that had decided to hide themselves did not
have pressure and lost their patience. They did not hide in the corners any longer. The combat
became even more fierce.
However, no one dared to near [Skyring Moon Chime Formation], and no one dared to near the
main peak.
The [Skyring Moon Chime Formation] was like a mysterious beast, its bloody maw wide open.
No one knew the situation inside it. The fierce fight on top of the main peak made many xiuzhe
inside the Great Pine Pavilion feel terror, deep terror!
Even the judges in the Great Pine Pavilion put their attentions on those two places, and wished
all the other fights would instantly finish.
Zuo Mo felt that he seemed to have dropped into an enormous grey bubble. All around him was
full of a strange grey material.
Even though he was wearing ling armor, but the ling armor did not separate him from the grey
matter. He seemed to be swimming naked. It didnt seem warm, but it wasnt cold. It was a
strange sensation. The only feeling he could describe was familiar. He seemed to be very familiar
with this grey material.
What was this grey material? He seemed to understand everything, but did not understand
anything at all.
He reached out to grab, but didnt catch anything.
Where was this? What was it?
He felt that he should know, but no matter how he thought, he could not remember. He was
slightly stunned. The surroundings did not provide any hints to him. His only clue was the
feeling of familiarity.

What really was this? Zuo Mo couldnt help furrowing his brows as he started to think deeply.
He felt that he needed to find the answer.
He reflexively reached and grasped at the grey material. Same as last time, he didnt grasp
anything.
This material was like air, invisible and intangible Zuo Mo thought inside.
Wait, invisible and intangible
Zuo Mo suddenly jumped. He knew what this was!
Consciousness! This was consciousness!
The moment he told himself this was consciousness, the feeling of familiarity inside his body
instantly grew stronger. At the same time, the scenery around him suddenly changed.
Below him, there was a place that looked like a little island far away. There was a patch of flame
on the little island, countless crimson flames dancing. A gravestone, and a male wearing black
sitting on top. There was also a ruler-straight river. The river was very muddled, with two kinds
of colors that could barely be made out.
Sea of consciousness! This was the sea of consciousness1
Zuo Mo was very shocked when he saw Pu Yao on top of the gravestone. He couldnt help but
shout, but no matter how hard he tried to shout, Pu Yao did not hear him.
He had to give up, and started to scan the surroundings.
The entire sea of consciousness was surrounded by this grey material. This was completely
different than what Zuo Mo had thought before. In the sea of consciousness in his memories,
what he saw in the surroundings was a pitch black void, without anything but the stars in the sky.
Right!
He remembered that there were four stars in the void!
As expected, when he raised his head to look up, he saw the stars.
There were four stars in the sky. One of them was the brightest, the other three slightly duller.

Before, every time he entered the sea of consciousness, he felt the four stars were very distant. At
this time, he found that the four stars were like four little boats, floating on the outside of the
consciousness.
He seemed to have comprehended something.
At this time, the four stars suddenly started to shed starlight. The starlight was like silver sand,
slowly absorbed into the grey consciousness. But the grey consciousness was too big. That bit of
starlight was pitifully small. But the four stars continuously poured down starlight at a slow pace.
Zuo Mo didnt know what was the use of these silver-grained starlight, but clearly, his
consciousness seemed to be starting a kind of transformation.

Wei Fei and Wu Ling Sanren were absorbed in the fight between Wei Sheng and Gu Rong Ping.
Not just them, but all of the judges in the Great Pine Pavilion were watching this tragic fight.
Suddenly, Wu Ling Sanren seemed to have detected something, and turned his face. He
unconsciously looked at the large formation under his feet. Just one look, and his gaze was stuck.
Inside the formation, Zuo Mos arms were spread open like he was going to embrace something.
He was woodenly standing on the spot, his eyes empty and lifeless.
Around him, the air seemed like burning firewood, occasionally producing soft explosions!
Translator Ramblings: Im not sure if the author made spiritual power/consciousness grey on
purpose because I never really encountered the brain being called grey matter in Chinese. We
get to see Wei Sheng again, and Zuo Mo is following Pu Yaos advice. Hes really grown up in
the last few chapters.

Chapter One Hundred and Fifty Two Stardust

The explosions around Zuo Mo became even dense. With the naked eye, it was possible to see
the air continuously exploding, and producing small whirlpools
Wu Ling Sanren was skilled in formations, because of this his consciousness was strong. Yet he
found when his consciousness was one zhang away from Zuo Mo, it seemed to have touched a
wall that he could not penetrate. He made a sound of surprise. He was in the stage of jindan. Zuo
Mo was just in zhuji. Theoretically, Zuo Mos consciousness was not something that could resist
his own. But the present situation was he was blocked. This kind of situation usually happened
only when both sides were similar in power.
He quickly calmed down from his surprise. He guessed that Zuo Mos consciousness was
undergoing a transformation. The explosions around Zuo Mo made him even more certain of his
prediction.
Compared to ling power, xiuzhe understood much less about the spirit. Even jindan xiuzhe like
Wu Ling Sanren wouldnt dare to say they had a good understanding of the spirit. On the market,
there were countless jade scrolls on cultivating ling power, but the number of jade scrolls for
cultivating spiritual power were pitifully small, and they were not in demand. It was the most
unpopular of the unpopular.
In all the xiuzhe, most of those skilled in the spirit were formation xiu, but even formation xiu
still primarily used ling power. It was like the Dhyana. They called themselves the greatest at
body cultivation, but in reality, they still cultivated ling power primarily.
Wu Ling Sanren might be skilled in formations, but he wasnt a formation xiu, but a sword xiu.
In such a backwater little jie like Sky Moon Jie dominated by sword xiu, how was it possible to
find good scriptures for cultivating the spirit?
Wu Ling Sanrens spirit scripture was a small branch of his sects scripture. Due to that, he
became interested in formations, and cultivated it for a while. But, that was just his hobby. A
sword xiu could only have one job, that was, to cultivate the sword!
Wu Ling Sanren did not know what was really happening in Zuo Mos spirit.
Wei Fei, who had been alarmed by Wu Ling Sanrens sound, looked at Zuo Mo once before he
took away his gaze. He was also a jindan and naturally could see that a transformation was
taking place in Zuo Mos consciousness. But in his view, the spirit was not the true path. So what
if ones spirit was powerful?
Wu Ling Sanren thought for a while. Not being able to come to any answers, he turned his eyes
back to Wei Sheng and Gu Rong Ping.

Zuo Mo felt his consciousness silently start to change as the starlight penetrated, but what change
was it? Looking at the starlight continuously produced by the stars slowly spread out in his
consciousness, he had a feeling that this transformation would continue for a time.
The speed that the starlight spread was very slow. If it needed to spread through all of the area
that the consciousness occupied, the time needed was not short.
His gaze leaving the consciousness, he started to ponder the consciousness-splitting that Pu
Yao told him. In front of him, the consciousness was so clear. This was the first time that he had
seen his consciousness. He didnt know if this was an illusion, or his own delusion. He felt it was
hard to decipher so he didnt think about it.
Because the consciousness was so close he could almost touch it, he naturally thought about
consciousness splitting.
Pu Yao did not tell him how to separate the consciousness. Zuo Mo looked at the surroundings.
All around him was the consciousness, like the endless grey matter. The sea of consciousness
was enveloped at the very center of the consciousness. The stars floated on the outside of the
consciousness. It was so large, yet shapeless and intangible. Zuo Mo didnt know what to do.
He tried to communicate with the surrounding consciousness like he usually did.
The moment he thought, the grey consciousness around him started to flood towards him. A short
while later, there was a ball of consciousness on his hand. Zuo Mo was joyful. It was this easy?
But before he could be happy for a while, the ball of consciousness on his hand disappeared. As
expected, it wouldnt be so simple. He wasnt demotivated. He was not surprised at the result.
Since the first time he heard the words consciousness splitting, he felt it wouldnt be so simple.
After that, he tried all kinds of experiments and concluded many things.
It was true that he could control the consciousness here, and it was very easy to control. But the
consciousness was like sand. It could easily be squeezed into a ball in the hand, but once he let
go, it would collapse into a pile. Once Zuo Mos thought moved away, the consciousness would
return to its original state.

Zuo Mo felt that it was not correct. In his understanding, the consciousness that was separated
should have a certain initiative of its own. Otherwise, what would be the difference compared to
him separating his consciousness into separate parts? The consciousness was shapeless and
intangible, and so it could be manipulated into any shape.
When he was using the [Great Li Fire Formation] to fight against Zong Ming Yan, Zuo Mo had
used a similar technique. At the time, he needed to control [Dragon Tying Formation], [Li Fire
Formation], [Three-Turn Formation], and [Great Li Fire Formation] at the same time. In order to
control all four formations, Zuo Mos skill with the consciousness had reached an extremely
detailed level.
At that time, his consciousness had been like an octopus with four tentacles which he used to
control the four formations at the same time.
From a technical viewpoint, that wasnt truly controlling them simultaneously because there was
an order to the formations. It could be more appropriate to say it was cooperation. It was just that
the gap between the times that the four formations were used that it looked as though it had
proceeded at the same time.
Controlling four formations at the same time, that was Zuo Mos limit. It wasnt multitasking
with the mind, but making four continuous steps seamlessly.
Consciousness splitting was truly multitasking. It could do many things at the same time. If
that was true, then other than the consciousness, what also had to split apart was the mind!
Zuo Mo sunk into thought. The consciousness might be shapeless and intangible but it was like
ling power, yet it could be separated. The mind was the thoughts of a person, how to split that?
That was not possible!
Zuo Mo understood his own pathway was definitely wrong.
He suddenly thought about the yao seed in his body. The moment the thought appeared in his
mind, the scenery around him changed again!
The sea of consciousness was quickly pulled closer. In the blink of an eye, he appeared in the sea
of consciousness. Pu Yao was nearby. Zuo Mo saw Pu Yao suddenly open his eye, and scan the
surroundings. Then a puzzled expression appeared on his face.
Zuo Mo didnt have the time to call Pu Yao before his body passed through the flames and was
pulled under below the sea of consciousness.

And then, he saw the yao seed!


Only now did he know that the yao seed was actually hidden away in his sea of consciousness,
and in the very center at that.
Zuo Mo suddenly started to admire Pu Yao. To be able to bury an item like this into the deepest
part of the sea of consciousness, Pu Yao was quite powerful.
He had always assumed that the sea of consciousness was a small island, but now, he found it
was actually a sphere. The place he usually went to was the surface of the sphere, and the inside
of the sphere was empty. The yao seed was in the very center, approximately the size of a walnut.
Around it, there were many narrow tubes similar to channels or vines. Zuo Mo couldnt name
them. These slim tubes connected the yao seed to the surface of the sea of consciousness.
The yao seed had been added later. Then these thin tubes should also have been added later. After
he had obtained the yao seed, his control of the consciousness had grown dramatically. Zuo Mo
guessed that it was caused by these things.
Looking at the yao seed covered with vine-like tubes, he fell into a daze.
His heart suddenly moved. If he copied the structure of the yao seed, could he stabilize the
consciousness, rather than have it move like sand.
The more he thought, the more he felt it was possible. Thinking hard about it, he discovered the
consciousness, though shapeless and intangible, did not dissipate because of the existence of the
sea of consciousness. The yao seed allowed him to control the consciousness every more closely
to his wishes.
Seeing a ray of light, Zuo Mo quickly found himself facing another question.
Then what could he use in place of the sea of consciousness, and what about the yao seed?
He didnt have Pu Yaos abilities. It was clearly impossible for him to take things in from the
outside world. Only things already present could be used here. Looking at the yao seed in front
of him, he couldnt help but think that if this yao seed was really like a vine, it would be
wonderful if it could bear fruit. That way, he wouldnt be lacking for objects to use.
This absurd thought just flashed humorously though his mind.
He felt that his thinking should have been incorrect but he needed to find a solution. He started to
wander through the sea of consciousness, searching for items that could be the core. It was
strange. He could clearly see Pu Yao, but the two of them seemed to be in completely different

worlds. No matter how hard he shouted, even passing in front of the other, Pu Yao did not feel it
at all.
After trying a few times, he gave up on this useless action, and started to search for things that
could replace the yao seed.
Yet, after he went through all of the sea of consciousness, he didnt find anything.
Was this thinking wrong? He unconsciously floated back into the consciousness, feeling the
sense of familiarity passed through the consciousness, he furrowed his brows as he thought.
Just at this time, a speck of glittering star light like silver sand slowly floated passed his eyes.
His eyes suddenly stopped.
That bit of starlight actually had gathered a thin layer of consciousness, as though it had a thin
grey shield!
Glee suddenly came into Zuo Mos eyes!
Starlight! Right, how could he have forgotten starlight?
He carefully reached out with his hand to grab that speck of starlight. The speck had no weight in
his hand, but he could feel even the thin layer of consciousness around the starlight even more
clearly. This layer of consciousness was slightly denser than the consciousness of any other
place.
Ha! This was it!
Zuo Mo decided to call this star dust. Because when he looked at it closely, it wasnt a ball of
light, but something tangible, like sand.
Having found the miraculous use of stardust, Zuo Mo started to squat next to the four stars to
gather stardust.
The speed the four stars sprayed out stardust was not fast. After a long time, Zuo Mo only
gathered a small handful.
He decided to first try using the amount of star dust he had.
The stardust was as loose as sand. If he wanted to use them as the inner core, he needed to forge
them into one object.

Forging was not unfamiliar to Zuo Mo. Right now, he could be considered half an expert in
controlling fire. He quickly became depressed through because he could not summon the
Stalagmite fire. Without fire, wasnt it a dream to forge them together?
Fire
His gaze couldnt help but land on the sea of consciousness. That was a large patch of fire!
Maybe he could use those crimson fires, Zuo Mo thought uncertainly.
But at this time, he didnt have a better choice so he could only try.
Yet what he didnt expect was, when the thought just appeared, a strand of fire left the sea of
flames, and flew in front of him!
It was so smooth Zuo Mo was awestruck. He had never been able to control the flames in the sea
of consciousness before.
But after thinking for a while, he couldnt think of a cause. In any case, its effectiveness would
be known once he tried.
Daringly, he took control of this strand of deep crimson fire, and started to forge the stardust in
his hands.
The deep red flame, carrying a fraction of black, covered the stardust, twisting about like a bellydancer!
Translator Ramblings: Well, now we know what the sea of consciousness actually looks like. The
thing I always wonder is if everyones sea of consciousness looks the same. Zuo Mos sea of
consciousness only formed when Pu Yao came in and created the island.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Fifty Three


Soul-Tethered Talisman
This chapter has been brought to you by me and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter One Hundred And Fifty Three Soul-Tethered Talisman
A bean-sized bead appeared on Zuo Mos hand, giving off a soft and warm star-like glow.
The bead was spherical, flawlessly spherical, and very light. A thick layer of grey consciousness
covered it which made its glow appear dimmer.

Zuo Mo knew that he was halfway there!


In reality, he felt his present situation was extremely weird. Everything in front of him was
weird. There were so many wondrous aspects that could not be described, too many things that
he could not understand. But so what? He actually hoped that this situation would continue for a
bit longer. Please dont be a dream!
It was a fleeting thought, he stopped didnt thinking about the weirdness it anymore.
This perfect bead that was forged out of stardust, Zuo Mo called it the star bead. The star bead
could automatically attract consciousness, but it still wasnt enough. If the gigantic grey ball that
Zuo Mo was on was his entire consciousness, then the amount of consciousness that the star bead
attracted was so little it was insignificant.
That little minuscule bit of consciousness lacked real value.
Luckily, he could control the consciousness. He started to urge the consciousness to gather at the
star bead and condense.

No one paid any attention to Zuo Mo. Even Wu Ling Sanren had his attention on Wei Sheng and
Gu Rong Ping. The battle between the two had reached the decisive moment. Wei Sheng was
covered in blood, and there were three more sword wounds on Gu Rong Pings body.
To say nothing of talent, just purely based on pain tolerance, Gu Rong Ping fell far behind Wei
Sheng.
Even Gu Rong Ping had to admit it to himself.
What sort of monster was this guy in front of him?
No matter what movement he made, it would pull on his wounds. That heart-boring pain almost
brought him to tears. Fresh blood continuously flowed out of the wounds. He could clearly feel
the power in his body slowly diminish due to blood loss. His head started to ring, his vision
gradually became blurry, his ling power was almost depleted, his channels were wounded

But how come this guy in front of him, who was far more injured than him, still hadnt fallen
down!
Wei Sheng had many more wounds than him, but why didnt he seemed to be affected? Wei
Sheng was flooded in blood, so much that he was suspicious that the others had been bleed dry.
Why was he still persisting? Wei Shengs cultivation was much lower than his. It should have
long been used up. His channels should have been damaged a long time ago. But why
Looking at the bloody figure in front of him, helplessness and hopelessness suddenly creeped
into Gu Rong Pings heart!

The air around Zuo Mos body gradually calmed. The sounds of explosions became rarer, until it
reached a complete silence. If one was watching, they would have found that the air around Zuo
Mos body had went from one extreme to another. There was no longer any explosions, no flow
of air, nothing. The area one zhang around his body was so silent it seemed to be tangible, with
no movement in the air at all.
But no one noticed. Wu Ling Sanren and Wei Fei were completely concentrated on the battle
between Wei Sheng and Gu Rong Ping. The few people that were fighting viciously in the
formation also did not detect it.
Zuo Mo was forced to stop. Floating in front of him was a ball of black-grey consciousness the
size of a bamboo basket. This was Zuo Mos result. After continuously condensing, this
consciousness ball had the star bead as the inner core. As expected, the outer layer of
consciousness did not dissipate.
He had taken out about one-tenth of his consciousness, and condensed it into this basket-sized
ball of consciousness. The density of the consciousness ball had reached its limit, and was unable
to be compressed any further. Due to the density, it was not like a ball of air, but was rock solid.
Naturally, the star ball at the center could not be seen.
So was it complete?
Zuo Mo was not certain. He had made the object but he didnt have any idea how to use it. Pu
Yao had just described a concept. It was a pity that he was unable to communicate with Pu Yao.

He had a strong feeling that if he left this wonderful state right now, it would definitely be hard
to ever enter this wondrous state again.
How was he to use it? Looking at the black-grey rock ball of consciousness, Zuo Mo was in a
predicament.
He could feel that there was a certain connection between himself and the ball of consciousness,
as though it was a part of his body. Zuo Mos heart moved, and the ball of consciousness
suddenly started to circle and dance around him.
So interesting!
Zuo Mo instantly became interested. He didnt need to exert any control. Where his thoughts
directed, the ball of consciousness would move. It was very fun. Zuo Mo had never felt so great.
Even the [Little Art of Cloud and Rain] that he was most familiar with, he could not cast and
maintain it so effortlessly without thought, the familiarity could not compare to this feeling that
the ball was a part of him.
He joyfully played around. Anything that he could think of, the ball of consciousness would
usually be able to accomplish it.
But quickly, he found something worth noting. The air-like consciousness seemed to reject the
ball of consciousness. A natural empty space would form around the ball of consciousness.
Zuo Mo couldnt help but frown. The consciousness and the ball of consciousness was from the
same origins, why would they repel each other?
Pu Yao had never told him that the divided consciousness and the original consciousness would
repel each other. Did he do something wrong?
Just as he was uncertain of what to do, he suddenly had an extremely daring idea why not
try and place the ball of consciousness into a talisman! One, since the ball of consciousness and
his consciousness repelled each other, then he would find the ball of consciousness another place.
Additionally the ball of consciousness felt intimately connected to him, and if it happened to be
in a talisman, just think how great it would be! If a talisman could act according to his thoughts,
and turn into a part of his body
The more Zuo Mo thought, the more appealing he found the idea!
Because the ball of consciousness was connected to his mind, he was able to understand that the
ball of consciousness did not seem to disagree with his idea.

So he did it!
Zuo Mo started to calculate which talisman was suitable. Very quickly, he found a suitable
talisman Five Colored Pagoda!
He didnt have many talismans in the first place and naturally didnt have many to pick from.
The inside of the Five Colored Pagoda was a small pocket space which could take in the ball of
consciousness. The Five Colored Pagoda may be able to deconstruct ordinary materials into the
five elemental essences but consciousness was not one of the five elements. Therefore he did not
have to worry about the ball being processed. In his perspective, the Five Colored Pagoda might
only be half-completed but of all the talismans he possessed, it had the greatest potential to grow
and the greatest abilities!
The moment he finished the thought, the ball of consciousness in front of him disappeared.
Immediately after, Zuo Mo could feel that it was now positioned in an area filled with essence of
the five elements.
It was inside the Five Colored Pagoda!
Zuo Mo was gleeful.

At the same moment, a blinding five-colored light suddenly lit up the formation.
The four people fighting inside the formation, and Chang Heng who had been watching the rings
of light, all stopped and raised their heads in shock.
A Five Colored Pagoda appeared above the formation, releasing five colors of light that was both
strong and beautiful. It was so eye-catching that the crescent moon above the Five Colored
Pagoda seemed to have lost all color. As the Five Colored Pagoda rose out of the clouds, light
streamed like a sun rise,.
The exterior of the Five Colored Pagoda that was covered by the five-colored light had changed
greatly. There was a glass-like sheen on the body of the tower, glistening and clear. The colors of
each of the five different levels was even more clean and fine. The eaves of the tower curved at a

great angle, looking like flying eaves. The body of the tower was narrower and taller than before,
the top of the tower seemed sharp!
The sudden surge of light alarmed everyone.

Soul-tethered talisman! Xin Yan was the first to react. A light suddenly rose in his eyes, his
voice full of excitement!
The other three dazedly stared at that exquisite Five Colored Pagoda in the mirage. The light that
it produced, every detail, it all displayed just how unordinary it was.
After a while, the other three managed to react. Pei Yuan Ran was the first to turn around his face
to look at Xin Yan. It really is a soul-tethered talisman?
The disciples behind them stared at each other. They were able to hear the excitement and
nervousness in the sect leaders voice. They couldnt help but be curious. What was a soultethered talisman? Was it worth Xin Yan Shishu and the sect leader to be so excited?
Definitely! Xin Yan replied resolutely.
An uncontrollable joy floated onto the other three peoples face, unable to be disguised. Xin Yan
was skilled in forging, and never over-exaggerated. If he was so certain, then it definitely
wouldnt be wrong.
Soul-tethered talisman!
Zuo Mo actually had a soul-tethered talisman!
If Xin Yan was able to realize this, then other people naturally could also see it. Surprise and
shock made their way onto many peoples faces.
A soul-tethered talisman was a talisman that was intimately connected to a xiuzhe. This kind of
talisman was extremely rare. The power of a soul-tethered talisman far surpassed normal
talismans, and it had many qualities that made people drool. It was able to become stronger as
the xiuzhe increased in cultivation. It was connected to the mind of its owner, so they could use it

to the greatest effect. The meaning of soul-tethered was akin to being a part of the cultivator so
they did not have to worry about the talisman being stolen by others.
Even if a soul-tethered talisman was stolen, the thief would not be able to use it. It was bound to
the xiuzhe, that was why it was called a soul-tethered talisman. Who would cut off someone
elses hand, and then connect it to their body?
A soul-tethered talisman was the highest kind of talisman all cultivators dreamed about! It was
strange but no one was able to forge a soul-tethered talisman. They usually were formed through
great treasures which underwent some fortuitous occurrences. Up until now, no one was able to
clearly describe the factors for the formation of a soul-tethered talisman.
While there were many benefits to the soul-tethered talisman, it wasnt as though there were no
disadvantages. Due to the great intimacy between the talisman and the xiuzhe, if the soul-tethered
talisman was damaged, the cultivator would also be affected. Usually, soul-tethered talismans
were also called life-saving talismans. Those that possessed one used one scarcely and carefully.
No one would have thought that a zhuji would possess a soul-tethered talisman!
People envied Zuo Mos luck.
As the Five Colored Pagoda transformed and appeared, the completed seventy-two child
formation [Skyring Moon Chime Formation] also changed!
The light released by the Five Colored Pagoda gradually disappeared. At the same time, the
crescent moon in the sky turned to a full moon, becoming even brighter and clean as it hung up
in the sky! The full moon was like a wheel, countless moon-colored strands silently drifted down
from the full moon. The moon-colored thin strands seemed to flutter in the wind on the other
end, quietly moving through the air and passing through the freely swimming rings of light. In
the blink of an eye, the light rings of various sizes had been threaded through by the mooncolored strands into bunches similar to wind chimes!
The light of the full moon brightened. The thin strands that fell down shook, and all the rings of
light shook, countless rings chiming at the same time!
Ding!
The clear sound travelled through the enormous Great Pine Pavilion, able to be heard at every
corner.
The Skyring Moon Chime Formation had been reborn!

Translator Ramblings: Ive never encountered an enlightenment or epiphany that was fake,
or was ineffective. People always gain something.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Fifty Four


Moon Chime Sound Storm
This chapter has been brought to you by me, and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter One Hundred and Fifty Four Moon Chime Sound Storm
Thousands of rings of light were chiming all at once. To the ears of everyone watching it was
unspeakably clear and pleasurable, but the expressions of the five people inside the formation
changed. Even Chang Heng, who was usually stoic, narrowed his eyes instinctively. He
unhesitatingly reached towards the copper ring between his collarbones and took out the Bloody
Spider sword.
He glanced at the others in the formation. Everyone acted as though they were facing a great
enemy. Even the yellow-faced man that had been steadily overpowering him previously, had a
serious expression as he held the copper dagger-axe in front of his chest.
When that clear chime from the rings of light had sounded out, the ling power in their bodies
shook, their energies became unsteady!
Just a chime from the rings of light was so strong. The five people instantly became nervous.
Even the stupidest person understood now that the great formation in front of them had changed.
The full moon shone in the sky. The moon-colored strands were like hair, soft and powerless,
weaved in with the rings of light and ringing of wind chimes, the scene was a beautiful painting.
Such a beautiful scene yet there was no admiration from the five people inside it. In their eyes,
the formation was powerful and full of murderous intent!

Behind the black gauze, Su could not keep her composure, her face full of shock.
Such a formation, such a display, was it really something a zhuji xiuzhe could complete?

That image of a wretched, greedy, and soft-rice-eating zombie in her head was completely
destroyed. Behind that expressionless face, there seemed to be a long shadow, deep and hard to
predict! Had she been wrong in her impression of Zuo Mo from the beginning?
There were thousands rings of light on the moon strings. They slowly swayed, elegant and soft.
Tightly focusing on the moon strands and light rings in front of her, Sus gaze seemed to be
deeply attracted to them, and she was unable to move her eyes away. The rings of light gently
trembled, and little slivers of killing intent slowly permeated, silently taking over every bit of
space.
Her mouth was slightly dry.
She had always wondered why Zuo Mo hadnt sent out the paper crane. She understood now.
Zuo Mo didnt need her help at all.
But at this time, her body was tense, not daring to slack off the tiniest bit. Her gaze still didnt
move. The sword scripture that she practiced belonged to the area of magnetism. Magnetic
power was extremely good for detection. These tiny bits of killing intent appeared as nonthreatening, but in reality, they could gather together at any time and kill.
Yet what truly made her on her guard, and more nervous than ever, was that she was their target!
Why
Why would she also be an enemy? Su couldnt understand, but there was no time for her to
think. She could only prepare for battle. She had a strong feeling that once the big formation was
activated, it wouldnt be so relaxing

Wu Ling Sanren and Wei Feis expressions were heavy.


Wei Fei stared down and asked solemnly, Sanren, do you recognize this formation?
Wu Ling Sanren shook his head. No, but this formation should be fourth-grade. However, it
must be that soul-tethered talismans that he just got which makes it so powerful. He nervously
stared at the formation below him, eyes unwavering.

He had to admit he had made a wrong judgment. Before, he had only felt Zuo Mo had some
talent, but his skill with formations was in the range of normality, but looking at it now, the
formation that guy had set up was far beyond his cultivation stage.
If it was only that, he would have just been slightly surprised. What really shocked him was that
this guy had a soul-tethered talisman!
Truly a fortunate guy!
He couldnt help but be envious. His cultivation was multiple times higher than Zuo Mo, but he
didnt have a soul-tethered talisman.
He was not the only one that was green-eyed over Zuo Mos soul-tethered talisman. Wei Fei also
sighed over the unfairness of the heavens. However, they knew that soul-tethered talismans could
not be planned for. Both were also jindan experts, the strength of their mind extremely resolute,
and did not move so easily for an outside object.
The two of them quickly returned to normal.
What does he want to do? Wei Feis brows furrowed as he snorted coldly. Does he want to
fight one against five? Has a soul-tethered talisman, so he doesnt even know where his limits
are?
Wu Ling Sanren didnt speak. After continuously making mistaken judgments, he felt the less he
said, the better. Also, based on the grave presence of the formation below, Zuo Mo may not be
brash. What he really could not see clearly was Zuo Mos present situation.
Inside the formation, Zuo Mo still maintained his weird posture, his eyes empty.
The air around him seemed to be like glue, motionless. If one looked closely, they would find
that the rings of light near him were affected by an invisible force that pushed them away.
The abnormalities had started when Zuo Mo had entered this strange state.
Wu Ling Sanren didnt have any confidence.
The Five Colored Pagoda floated in the sky above the pond. On the sword-sharp point, there was
a dot of star light that flashed, communicating with the full moon in the sky.
The moon dimmed and brightened.
Clink clink clink clink!

Suddenly, the light rings on the moon strings started to shake. The small chimes were like a tide,
spreading out in waves.
The five people inside the formation stiffened as the tension rose. At this time, they did not have
the attention to spare to fight with other people because, to their shock, they discovered that Zuo
Mo did not plan on letting even one of them escape from the formation escape.

Tsk! Unlucky! Luo Li felt helpless. Zuo Mo went crazy again! The flying sword floated beside
him, waiting to attack.
He said those words, but light came into his eyes, and slight anticipation rose. There was quite a
period of time since the last time they had fought. He always had the thought of trying to fight
Zuo Mo again but he had never found the chance.
Now that the opportunity was right in front of him, the desire for battle burned in his heart.
In Luo Lis mind, Zuo Mo and Wei Sheng were all geniuses of the sect. Wei Sheng Shixiong was
like a mountain peak unable to be scale. Facing Shixiong, one would only feel hopelessness. Zuo
Mo was completely different. If one saw him usually, one would always accidentally
underestimate and disdain him. But when one truly faced him, he might not win, but he
definitely would surprise and shock others.

Gui Feng also detected the thick killing intent in the formation. He didnt use the ghost
movement to hide his figure like usual. The entire formation was under the control of the other.
The effect of the ghost movement was limited. His expression was grave. Two blooms of bright
green ghost fire burned on the white bone sword. The body of the sword hummed like the soft
sobs of souls.

Zuo Mo still hadnt left that wondrous state.


This state made people intoxicated, a state where anything was possible, as though everything
was understood.
He silently stood there as though he was a spectator, watching everything that was happening in
front of him. The Five Colored Pagoda whose thoughts were connected to his was stand guard in
the center of the great formation, controlling the entire Skyring Moon Chime Formation!
Every detail of the Skyring Moon Chime Formation flowed across his heart. He couldnt see it,
but he could clearly feel it.
It was passed on from the Five Colored Pagoda.
Before, his original intentions had been to activate and use the seventy-two child formation
Skyring Moon Chime Formation in order to gain some experience, and to comprehend some of
the intricacies of the Skyring Moon Chime Formation.
Right now, every detail of the Skyring Moon Chime Formation was in front of him.
Due to this, he decided he would try the power of the Skyring Moon Chime Formation!
His thoughts moved, and the Five Colored Pagoda activated the great formation!

The fine chimes that had like a tide suddenly disappeared. The enormous formation suddenly
sank into a dead silence, suffocating like a rock pressed to the chest.
The five people tensed to their limits inside the formation. This suffocating and heavy silent was
the prelude to the killing.

The round moon suddenly lit up, emanating the brightest and strongest light it could without any
regard. In the blink of an eye, the round moon which had been as clean as jade seemed to have
started to burn, the strong light making it appear like a ball of fire!
Clink!
A ring of light that was the closest to the full moon gave a clear sound!
This clear sound announced the beginning of the killing move. There seemed to be some force
that was being passed down through the moon string. Like it was a relay, one by one, the rings of
light sounded.
Clink clink clink
The sounds went from slow to fast, the frequent chimes like a suddenly rising tide!
Looking from the sky, the rings of light hanging off the strands coming of the moon were like
dominoes being set off, one shaking after the previous!
The shaking of the first ring of light was the least, and the sound was the lightest.
The send ring of light vibrated more, and the sound was slightly louder.
The third ring of light vibrated even greater in magnitude, the sound even louder!

This cascade of changes was extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, the power seemed to have
passed to the end of the moon string, and to the last ring of light!
The last ring of light on each moon strand lit up at the same time. After the power from the
preceding rings of light finally reached the last ring of light, the chiming of the ring of light had
reached a maximum!
Clang!
The five people inside the formation felt their vision blur. Everything they saw seemed to twist
and change. The ground underneath their feet shook violently, almost knocking them off their
feet.
All of their expressions changed.

Sus Black Daze sword was held across her chest, her right hand holding the hilt of the sword,
her left hand straight like a sword, pressing gently on the body of the sword. She shouted clearly,
Protect!
With her as the center, a terrifying magnetic force exploded into the surroundings!

Luo Li didnt go grab the flying sword floating in front of him, but spread out his right hand, the
palm open. His voice was ethereal, lonely and empty, Self Separate!
The ethereal sword essence was like a female ghost dancing by his side.

Chang Hengs Blood Spider sword transformed into the Blood Spider, shielding him from the
front. The blood light on the body of the blood spider was extremely bright, as though it had just
been taken out of a blood pond! The blood spider gave a vicious howl, ready to leap!

At some time, a heavy copper armor appeared on the yellow-faced man. The thick armor covered
his entire body, only revealing his eyes. His hand was holding the copper dagger-axe flatly, his
back straight as he bellowed, Break!

A child appearing about six or seven years old appeared in front of Gui Feng. He was very
chubby, his skin tender. He was wearing a red belly-cloth. However, his eyes were an eerie
green! Gui Feng shouted, Go!
Gui Fengs killing move Little Ghost King!
The five people simultaneously used their killing moves. They could feel a strong threat!
The activation of the Skyring Moon Chime Formation did not have any forewarning. Once it
started, it activated its strongest attack!
Inside the formation, the lion-headed copper cauldrons that Zuo Mo used to set up the [Li Fire
Formation] collapsed into dust, the metal nails turned to dust, the jade cards turned to dust, the
plants turned to dust, the ground turned to dust .
The half-mu sized pond turned into a ball of fine mist!
This was the initiation of the strongest killing move of the seventy-two child formation Skyring
Moon Chime Formation [Moon Chime Sound Storm]!
Translator Ramblings: Poor Su, shes labelled an enemy because Zuo Mo has no fine control.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Fifty Five


Collision
This chapter has been brought to you by me, and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter One Hundred and Fifty Five Collision!
Lin Qian silently stood in the air, looking at the enormous mirage in the distance.
He could not see what was occurring inside the formation but he was very shocked at the
appearance of the Five Colored Pagoda! Other people may not know the origins of the Five
Colored Pagoda but he had seen Zuo Mo buying this talisman from the Hundred Treasures
Flying Pavilion.

The Five Colored Pagoda had some clever abilities, but it was just an incomplete talisman. In his
eyes, it was not a good talisman and wouldnt have expected it to become a soul-tethered
talisman.
But what the Five Colored Pagoda had just appeared was truly a soul-tethered talisman!
Something definitely changed in this period of time.
Just at this time, the mirage suddenly shook violently. The picture became indistinct, and nothing
could be seen.
The audience which had been excited instantly gasped.
What had happened? Did the [Mirage Illusion Formation] malfunction?
Lin Qian was slightly surprised. The stability of the [Mirage Illusion Formation] that Tian Song
Zi setup could not be doubted. Did something happen inside the Great Pine Pavilion?
He was not the only person surprised. The person who felt the greatest surprise was Tian Song
Zi. To set up the [Mirage Illusion Formation], he had expended many resources. Seeing an
unexpected occurrence happen, he couldnt help but frown.
A sect leader was also puzzled. Technically, there shouldnt be a problem with the [Mirage
Illusion Formation].
Yes, of course. The other sect leaders opened in agreement.
[Mirage Illusion Formation] was an extremely mature and stable formation, having been used
since a long time ago. Other than the size which was much larger than the average formation,
there was nothing different about the formation that had been set up this time.
The corner of Tian Song Zis eye suddenly jumped.
Someone noticed his abnormality and asked, Has Friend found something?
Tian Song Zis expression was normal, and said with a smile, A small accident.
As expected, when he finished, the mirage quickly resumed. Everyones attention was quickly
attracted by the mirage.
Shock slightly spilled out of Tian Song Zis eyes. The Great Pine Pavilion was a Secret Paradise
talisman. It was always in the possession of each generation of Dong Fu Halls master. Just now,

he had detected an extremely strong ling power ripple that had exploded suddenly in Great Pine
Pavilion. It was that ling power ripple which had affected the [Mirage Illusion Formation] and
caused its situation. This burst of ling power was like a meteor, and had flashed by and
disappearing in a flash.
His eyes went towards the formation belt inside the mirage.
The location of the ling power explosion was there!
Who had caused the ling power explosion? Zuo Mo? Or someone else?
He wasnt surprised that Yu Bai was eliminated and he wasnt sad. There were many benefits to
Yu Bai for having such an experience of real battle. As to everything else, he did not care. Maybe
Yu Bai would care, but this was what Tian Song Zi hoped he could encounter.
Yu Bai might be respectful and warm usually, but in reality, he did not really know reality, and
was overly proud. This proud aura was a trait of many young masters, it was the special aura that
would appeared most easily on the core disciples of each sect .
Tian Song Zis eyes went towards the big formation.
He couldnt help but admire Pei Yuan Ran. In Wu Kong Sword Sects disciples, other than Luo
Li who had a faint attitude of a young master, Wei Sheng and Zuo Mo did not carry themselves
this way.
These two young people were also the two with the most spectacular performance of this years
Sword Test Conference.

[Moon Chime Sound Storm]!


Inside the formation, everything was pulverized to dust and thrown about. The dust and mist
covered the entire formation, becoming even finer and smaller!
Amidst the sky of dust, Zuo Mos arms was open like a divine being, motionless, his eyes
indifferent and empty without a hint of emotion. Within a one zhang radius around Zuo Mo the
dust and mist were blocked by an invisible wall.

The greatest killing move of the seventy-two child formation Skyring Moon Chime Formation
shook the Great Pine Pavilion! Nothing could block the sounds that swept through the Great Pine
Pavilion. Countless young beasts bled from their orifices and died.
As the sound storm approached all xiuzhe felt their energies shake, their ling power almost
spinning out of control. All were shocked!
That was the case for the xiuzhe outside the formation. The pressure faced by the five people
inside the formation was hundreds of times stronger!

Sus fine brow was creased into a ball, showing a slightly pained expression.
She had underestimated the power of the great formation! In the sound storm, the ling power in
her body had almost collapsed, and the magnetic shield had almost dissolved. She bit her teeth,
not daring to keep anything back. All the ling power inside her body channeled and flowed
towards the Black Daze Sword!
The magnetic force twisted space, covering her, and turning her into a mirage.

Luo Lis situation wasnt much better. Blood streamed out of the corner of his mouth. His
cultivation was not as high as the other four. After the attack, he was wounded! But the corner of
his mouth went up rather than down, the desire for battle in his eyes increasing instead, furious,
hot!
Last time, I pushed you to such a sorry state, but you did not surrender, this time, you push me to
such a sorry
How can I lose to you

His pupils suddenly expanded, the flying sword floating in front of his body hummed, its body
shaking. Like a stream of light, it stabbed into the ground in front of his feet up to the hilt.
He knelt down on one knee in front of the sword, muttering in a low voice, Self Separation!
Self Separation Wo Li Self Separation
It echoed around his body. The figure floating in front of his figure which appeared like a female
ghost suddenly became clear. A plainly dressed female with her hair up stood. Her eyes were
angry. She lightly sighed and raised her graceful wrist.
A green and red light flew from her hand, blocking in front of the two of them.

Chang Heng expressionlessly stood. The ground under his feet shattered. Even when they
shattered into even smaller pieces of dust, he was not moved. In front of him, the Blood Spider
seemed to be enraged, howling as the black seals across its entire body brightened.
A bloody curtain of light, tinged slightly with black, blocked in front of the person and spider.
The yellow-faced man wore heavy armor, holding a copper dagger-axe and shouted.
A blinding light appeared at the tip of the copper dagger-axe. It clearly was piercing emptiness,
but it was like it was encountering great resistance. It slowly pierced further, each bit extremely
difficult. The light of the dagger-axe became even more bright, so bright one could not look at it!

The Little Ghost King in front of Gui Feng spoke baby talk as he waved his tender lotus root-like
hands. An eerie green curtain of light appeared layer by layer as he moved. The thin green
curtains were as fragile as eggshell, breaking as soon as they formed.
Gui Feng finally showed shock.

The Little Ghost King seemed to have been provoked, not ah-ah-ing anymore. A vicious and
cruel expression appeared on the innocent and adorable face. His hands started to dance, the
movements strange. Each movement was filled with a dark and terrifying presence, like a
sorcerer dancing!
A eerie green belt of light appeared, quickly spinning around Gui Feng and the Little Ghost
King. From the belt of light came sorrowful and angry sobs.

The air that surrounded Zuo Mo who was in a wondrous state suddenly rippled.
That pair of indifferent and empty eyes moved, and became a fraction livelier.
Zuo Mo felt his body become gold. The pleasurable feeling from floating in the consciousness
flew away.
There was no grey, no starlight, no sea of consciousness
He moved his eyes. Above his head, a full moon hung, the moon strings plentiful as hair, the
rings like wind chimes.
The first thought in Zuo Mos mind was Not good!
Why did he wake up at such a dangerous time
Before he could become irritated, he was bowled over by a large yao beast that was charging at
full speed. Splat, he spat out a mouthful of fresh blood. Like a sandbag, he was thrown into the
air.
The strongest attack of the seventy-two child formation Skyring Moon Chime Formation, [Moon
Chime Sound Storm] and the life-saving measures of Chang Heng and the other four crashed
together without any technique!
The strongest encounter in the Sword Test Conference!

Boom boom boom!


The bright light was like the sun rising.
The earth cracked, the sky changed color.
The Skyring Moon Chime Formation could not endure the terrifying power from such an
encounter and instantly crumbled!
The pitiful Zuo Mo. He had woken up at the most crucial time, his skill level dropping back to
his normal level. How could he defend against the collision of these two forces? Luckily, the
majority of the power was absorbed by the Skyring Moon Chime Formation, but Zuo Mo still
couldnt endure the rest. He instantly was seriously wounded.
The light around the Five Colored Pagoda dimmed, cracks appearing on the body of the tower.
With a tragic hum, it turned to a stream of light and flew into Zuo Mos body.
Chang Heng and the others were not much better. The face-on collision of the two forces were
far beyond their expectations. Before they were able to react, they were forcefully ejected from
the formation several dozen zhang away.
All five were injured. Each person had wounds, their faces full of shock. Even Chang Heng was
not an exception.

Through the mirage formation, the audience in Dong Fu was unable to see the situation inside
the great formation. The sudden blurring of the formation also made many people speculate.
Just as everyone was puzzled, the mirage which had just recovered suddenly exploded with a
blinding light.
Not ready for the blinding flash, many people found their vision a sea of white, unable to see
anything. Dong Fu instantly turned to chaos. The panicked people instinctively protecting
themselves. The enormous Dong Fu exploded in shouts.
The situation only calmed down after a while when everyones eyes had recovered.

The fearful people unconsciously looked towards the mirage that had just changed.
Hiss!
It was rare to see several ten thousands of people inhale in shock.
On the mirage, the position where Zuo Mo had originally set up the formation belt had
completely transformed. The pond was gone, the woods were gone, the formation was gone.
What they could see was an enormous great pit. The depth of the pit was far more than ten
zhang, its width reaching an astonishing fifty zhang. Such a terrifying pit made everyone feel
cold in their hearts as they swallowed.
Around the great hole, there were fifteen great cracks that were wider than five zhang which
snaked their way away from the big hole. The longest crack was three li in length!
Even the shortest crack was one hundred zhang!
The black big hole was full of cracks, startling to the eye. It looked like an extremely ugly
jellyfish.
But anyone who saw this jellyfish would only feel fear and tremble!
What kind of power could do this?
The audience in Dong Fu was left in shock.

The xiuzhe inside the Great Pine Pavilion were struck even more deeply.
The moment the light appeared, that power which seemed to destroy the world made everyone
feel the terror of deaths approach!
No one had any interest in fighting.
Their hearts were filled with terror yet their legs seemed to be enchanted as they ran towards the
location of the light of their own initiative.

When they saw the great hole, the last vestige of power seemed to leave them and they sat down
beside the hole.

At the gathering place of the Dong Fu sect leaders, a voice full of anger and pain sounded.
My, my Great Pine Pavilion
Translator Ramblings: What sounds do evil ghost babies make? Zuo Mo get caught up in his own
attack hes seriously not very skilled at this offense part of fighting.
Next chapter is the reaction chapter. The author always does this, a pseudo-cliffhanger to end a
fight, and then a little conclusion in the next chapter.

Chapter One Hundred and Fifty Six Brothers in Difficulty
Dont forget ..
Even in death, you must not forget

Zuo Mo woke up and slowly opened his eyes. The first thing he noticed was the pain! It was like
the bones in his body had been rattled. Just the slightest of movements had caused bone-aching
pain. He instantly became docile and motionless.
The familiar fragrance of medicine entered his nose. He instantly realized where this was.
Oh, his life was really bad. It seemed every time he attended a fight, he would enter the Fragrant
Ginger Yard. It looked like he was quite heavily wounded this time.

Cough, Shidi, youre awake.


Suddenly, a familiar voice came from his right.
Eldest Shixiong? Zuo Mo instinctively turned his neck to look right. Just as he moved, he
couldnt help but inhale sharply. So painful!
He moved his head with great difficulty. When he saw Eldest Shixiong on a bed not far away at
his right, he was instantly shocked.
Lying on the bed where Eldest Shixiong voice came from was a person whose body was entirely
bound in bandages with only his eyes left uncovered.
Eldest Shixiong, is it you? Zuo Mo asked with uncertainty. This person who was wrapped up
like a mummy, was he really the courageous and invincible Eldest Shixiong?
En. The person under the bandages responded. It really was him. He said, Youve been
unconscious the longest. We were all very worried about you.
Eldest Shixiong, who wounded you like this? Zuo Mo asked in disbelief.
Ha ha, I fought with Gu Rong Ping, he did this. Wei Shengs tone was relaxed.
Zuo Mo still didnt quite believe it. That little white face shouldnt be this strong!
He isnt much better off. Wei Sheng smiled. In the end, I managed to slice him twelve times
in succession.
Hearing this, Zuo Mo sweated. Sliced twelve times even if that little white face was a big
carrot, he would have been sliced into a toothpick. However, he felt that this was expected. In the
same generation, how could there be anyone who could overpower Eldest Shixiong to the point
he could not retaliate?
seeing Eldest Shixiong worse off than he was, his mood which had been down due to his injuries
instantly became much better. He felt this way even though Wei Sheng was Zuo Mos respected
and loved Eldest Shixiong.
Brothers in difficulty
Suddenly, Wei Sheng suddenly shouted in Zuo Mos direction, Luo Shidi, are you better today?
Zuo Mo unconsciously turned his face to the left.

There was a bed on his left. Luo Li was lying on top. Even though it wasnt as severe as Eldest
Shixiong, but his expression was withered, his complexion pale. It was easy to see he was
seriously injured.
So there wasnt just one brother in difficulty Zuo Mo was struck.
When Luo Li looked at Zuo Mo, his expression was slightly unnatural. Zuo Mo immediately
remembered that the person who had wounded Luo Li had been himself. That wondrous state
had disappeared, but Zuo Mo clearly remembered what had happened during that time.
If Zuo Mos face could move, his expression right now would certainly be extremely unnatural.
Due to the fact he had been in a strange state, he had performed beyond his abilities. Even if he
was completely healed and set up the seventy-two child formation Skyring Moon Chime
Formation again, he might not be able to successfully perform [Moon Chime Sound Storm]
successfully one in ten times.
Is Shixiong better? Luo Li avoided Zuo Mos eyes and asked Wei Sheng. His mentality was
much better than before. Even though Wei Sheng had once been his sword servant, but right now,
he was Wu Kong Sword Sects Eldest Shixiong.
Greater power meant a greater status, the rules of the sect had always been so.
Now, no one in Wu Kong Sword Sect would doubt Wei Sheng Shixiongs strength. Facing Zuo
Mo, Luo Li still had some desire to compete, but facing Wei Sheng he had completely submitted.
Much better. Wei Sheng tone was nothing like that of a seriously wounded patient, extremely
optimistic. After a bit of time, Ill probably heal.
The three of them were all severely wounded, unable to move as they laid on the bed.
At the beginning there was a slight barrier between Zuo Mo and Luo Li, but now that they were
in the same predicament, their relations gradually improved. After a while, they conversed freely.
Before, Zuo Mo hadnt liked Luo Li. Upon further acquaintance, he found that Luo Li was not as
bad as he had imagined. Quite the opposite, in fact. Even though he would unconsciously reveal
the pride ingrained in his bones, his personality was straightforward and he was a forthright
person.
The two of them had fought two times. Both times, each of them had been seriously wounded.
To a certain degree, their relationship was forged in fighting.
The two of them were also full of admiration towards each others strength.

Nothing needed to be said of Luo Li to Zuo Mo. Right now, Zuo Mo had become one of the
hottest people in Dong Fu. At the end, he had fought one on five, and it had turned into a legend
in Dong Fu. No one had saw the one-on-five fight, but everyone had clearly seen the terrifyingly
gigantic hole in the Great Pine Pavilion.
Zuo Mo knew how much his strength was really worth. Each time Eldest Shixiong and Luo Li
mentioned this matter, his heart was extremely insecure. In his perspective, Luo Lis strength was
much stronger than his.
Suddenly remembering this matter, Zuo Mo couldnt help but ask in curiosity, Shixiong, that
day, I seemed to see a woman in front of you, who was that?
Luo Li was instantly slightly embarrassed. He muttered, Thats my sword spirit.
So Shidi is walking the road of spirit manifestation. Wei Sheng instantly realized. Seeing Zuo
Mo not understanding, and then remembering this guy did not study what he should be, he
painstakingly explained. There are many ways to cultivate the sword, many of them strange.
Sword spirit is one of these. It means to nurture the sword essence to made it into a spirit.
However
He couldnt help but glance at Luo Li several times. I really didnt see that Luo Shixiongs
emotions are pretty sensitive. Seeing Zuo Mo still not understanding, he said with a smile,
People that cultivate a sword spirit mostly have sensitive feelings. This way of the sword uses
emotion to enter this path of the sword. When the sword spirit is forming, it needs to use emotion
as the guide for the sword spirit to take form.
Zuo Mo finally understood. Luo Li instantly blushed red.
Our sect is a sword sect. Shidi must not slack off on the sword scriptures. Wei Sheng said to
Zuo Mo.
Uh-huh, uh-huh. Zuo Mo unconcernedly responded. He suddenly thought about the Kun Lun
jade scroll, and couldnt help but ask, This Sword Test Conference, has the rankings come out?
Who entered the top ten?
Wei Sheng shook his head. Wounded like this, how can we know the situation outside?
Zuo Mo turned towards Luo Li. Luo Li also shook his head.
Zuo Mo could only say, Ill ask when Xiao Guo and the others come next time. These past few
days, it had been Xiao Guo, Li Ying Feng and the others who had been looking after the three of
them. The sect elders were not seen.

The three of them didnt know the ranking for the Sword Test Conference had become a great
problem.
Zuo Mos last move had disrupted the competition. Tian Song Zi saw that the Great Pine
Pavilion had been damaged to a such a degree had instantly stopped the competition. No
competitor had opposed the decision. Having seen the terrifying collision with their own eyes,
they didnt have any more interest in competing.
Many of the xiuzhe that rushed to the explosion had been left shocked, dazed, and withered.
What was even more unexpected was that the time those people spent with a low mood was
much longer than others had imagined. Their elders started to become worried.
From this, it could be seen just how much of a blow that world-shattering collision had given
them!
For Tian Song Zi who was hosting the Sword Test Conference, there were more things that
caused a headache for him. He could slowly fix the damage in the Great Pine Pavilion but he
must immediately solve the problem of the Sword Test Conferences ranking.
This was an extremely troublesome problem!
Because the competition had been stopped in the middle, the number of people in the Great Pine
Pavilion was far more than ten. These competitors were also all people of some strength. Wei
Sheng and Gu Rong Ping had both been wounded and became unconscious. The other
spectacular competitor, Zuo Mo, also was seriously wounded and unconscious.
It was not easy to rank the first ten.
The reason that the four of Pei Yuan Ran and the others were absent was due to this matter.
Who could imagine a group of jindan experts in a room shouting furiously like a group of
children. Some slammed the table, others sword, some bounced back and forth. It was very
boisterous.
After Pei Yuan Ran and the others left Dong Fu Hall, even if they were of astounding cultivation,
there was tiredness on their faces.

Su was lying on the bed. Even now, there was a layer of black gauze over her face.
Do you feel better today? Lin Qian asked attentively.
Su nodded and didnt speak.
Lin Qians expression was full of self-blame. He took out a jade bottle and said gently, I didnt
think you would be wounded this time. It is my fault. This Youth Dan will be very beneficial for
you. Consume it quickly.
Sus body gently shook.
Her gaze stared at the jade bottle in Lin Qians hand.
She had heard of the name Youth Dan. It was an extremely rare and expensive lingdan,
especially suited for female xiu to consume. It had great benefits for cultivation. Using it to heal,
she felt it was a great waste.
Who really are you? Sus gaze moved from the jade bottle to Lin Qian as she asked coldly.
She had heard the name of the Youth Dan but she was also very clear about its rarity. Heart Lake
Sword Sect might be the top tier sect in Sky Moon Jie, but such a high grade lingdan such as
Youth Dan wasnt something they could possess.
She had always assumed that Lin Qian was a disciple of one of the elders, but when he took out
the Youth Dan, she suddenly realized that Lin Qian definitely couldnt be a disciple of her sect.
Then the other question was, where did the sect token in Lin Qians hand come from?
What goal did he have?
Sus gaze was like an arrow. Lin Qian laughed lightly, his expression normal. He gently put the
Youth Dan in front of Su. I am not Shimeis enemy.
He then asked, The matter I asked last time, does Shimei have the result?
Seeing the calmness on Lin Qians face, Su hesitated and shook her head, saying, Its not him.
Lin Qian did not seem surprised at this result. He nodded. Many thanks, Shimei. Shimei, please
relax and rest. As to forging your sword, you can give it to this one. I will not disappoint
Shimei.

Finishing, he left.
Su looked at the figure that disappeared outside the door and felt this person was even more
mysterious.

In a distant mountain valley of Ling Ying Sect, there were two people speaking. It was Chang
Heng and the yellow-faced man. The expressions of the two seemed untouched, but their
complexion and alertness was much worse than before the competition.
The two of them had not escaped unscathed. They had been wounded to various degrees.
This is what you need. The yellow-faced man handed over a jade scroll.
Chang Heng took over the jade scroll. Without looking, he put it away.
The yellow-faced man saw Chang Heng didnt move and said in satisfaction, This is the first
half. Its the deposit. After the matter is concluded, Ill give you the other half. Ill notify you of
the general time.
Chang Heng nodded and said expressionlessly, Alright.
Finishing, he turned and left.
Translator Ramblings: I was wrong, its more like multiple reaction chapters. The story is going
to vent now like a balloon slowly deflating, but it wont pop.
Wei Sheng has become a mummy. Luo Li has the ghost. Its a band of monsters, the zombie, the
mummy and the ghost.

Chapter One Hundred and Fifty Seven Unexpected

When Zuo Mo, Wei Sheng, and Luo Li saw the sect leader and the other shishu, they instantly
became obedient.
Humph, you guys are very good. Went to attend a Sword Test Conference and not one of you
came back whole. Shi Feng Rong who had been working tirelessly saw these three and her
already bad mood became even worse. The responsibility to heal the three had all landed on her
head.
The three shook in fear. Shi Feng Rong might be the youngest of the sect elders, but in reality,
the outcome to having offended Fourth Shigu was very bad.
Pei Yuan Ran and the others did not have good complexions. Everyone that was dragged to Dong
Fu Hall had to shout and sort out the mess naturally were not in good moods. Even more, these
three disciples were seriously wounded. The expenses were very high.
Alright, alright. Yan Le came out to smooth things over. Really, you guys got yourselves into
this state. As your elders, how can we not worry? You have to remember there is no meaning in
one victory or defeat. As long as you are alive, you always have the chance to take it back. But if
you dont have a life, what does victory mean?
The three murmured.
Pei Yuan Rans expression relaxed slightly and took over, Your Shishu is right. You have to
remember this. You are the hope of the sect. In the future, the prosperity of the sect rests on you.
If you do not take care of your body, you will fail the teachings the sect has given you. Ha ha, but
you guys were very good this time. The rankings for the Sword Test Conference have been
finalized. The situation was special so the final rankings were calculated using the jindan elders
judgement. All three of you are in the top ten. Wei Sheng second, Zuo Mo third, Luo Li seventh.
Luo Li couldnt help ask, Didnt we lose and were unconscious?
Pei Yuan Ran narrated the situation after the Sword Test Conference had ended before Wei Sheng
and Luo Li understood. When they looked at Zuo Mo, it was like they were looking at a monster.
This guy was the true criminal for the ending of the competition!
Zuo Mos head was dazed, his eyes was blank. Kun Lun introductory formation jade scroll. He
had given up hope on obtaining it for for a long time now, but the sect leader was telling him that
he was ranked third. This meant that the jade scroll was basically his!
Whos first? Wei Sheng asked.

Its Gu Rong Ping. Pei Yuan Ran glanced at Wei Sheng. Afraid the other couldnt bear it, he
explained, Gu Rong Pings level might not be as high as you, but he suppressed you. If it really
was truly a matter of life and death, the likelihood of him winning is bigger. In reality, he still
had something he didnt say. Heart Lake Sword Sect was the first ranked major sect in Sky Moon
Jie, how could the others not give them some face?
Thats right. Wei Sheng nodded, unconcerned. Gu Rong Ping really is the strongest opponent
I encountered. I learned many things this time.
Seeing Wei Shengs mind was so open, Pei Yuan Ran was very comforted.
Luo Li wanted to speak when he suddenly saw Xin Yan Shibo stare with icy eyes at Zuo Mo. He
instantly didnt dare to speak.
Did Xin Yan Shibo have some opinion about Zuo Mo Shidi? He was slightly puzzled. Rationally,
Zuo Shidis performance this time could be labeled spectacular. Why wasnt Xin Yan Shibo
satisfied?
He peeked at Zuo Mo and found the others eyes were unfocused as though the other had
wandered away. These few days, the three of them had grown their relationship. Luo Li couldnt
help but panic on Zuo Mos behalf. He wanted to speak to remind him, but the words shrunk
back when it came to his moth.
Xin Yan Shibos gaze was really sharp, even sharper than a flying sword!
Zuo Mo gradually came out of his shock and instinctively asked, What time can we get the
prizes?
Once the words came out, the four elders stopped speaking, their faces becoming dark.
Zuo Mo finally came back to his body. Seeing the sect leader and others have faces blacker than
the bottom of a pot, he shook.
Not good!
The four of them stared unkindly at Zuo Mo, causing him to have goosebumps.
No one expected the first person to break the pressuring mood was Xin Yan Shibo. However,
once he opened, it was like the wind of the tundra sweeping through the room, the temperature
freezing, Good! Very good! Extremely good!
After three good, without another word, Xin Yan Shibo turned and left.

Pei Yuan Ran and Yan Le did not have good expressions. The two turned and left. Shi Feng
Rongs face was black. Her eyes looked as though she was going to skin Zuo Mo alive.
Zuo Mo was very good at deciphering peoples expressions. Seeing Masters expression, the bad
feeling inside shot up, and he murmured, Master
Very good! Shi Feng Rong snorted coldly, turning to leave.
Zuo Mo was dumbstruck.
The suddenly change also scared Wei Sheng and Luo Li. When had the two ever seen the elders
so angry?
Wei Sheng hesitated before asking, Shidi, what did you do?
Yeah! Luo Li couldnt resist. Everyones angry at you! Youre going to die!
Anyway Zuo Mo heard it, this guys words were full of laughter at his misfortunes. However, he
wasnt in the mood to attend to that guy. Thinking about the good that Xin Yan Shibo had said,
his heart trembled.
Just offending Master, his days would be difficult. This was good. In one stroke, he had
completely offended all the elders, and from the tone, it seemed to be pretty severe.
What made Zuo Mo even more depressed was that, up until now, he didnt even understand
where the problem was.
Theoretically, his display this time wasnt bad. Zuo Mos heart shook.
Only Wei Sheng looked thoughtful.
Zuo Mo had no solution to the anger his Master, shishu, and the sect leader held. However, he
was extremely easy-going. Knowing that it was useless to worry, he didnt think about it any
further. Thinking about the Kun Lun introductory formation jade scroll that was going to be in
his hands soon, the worry in his heart was washed away.

As Shi Feng Rong had come back from Dong Fu Hall, the speed the three healed at increased
greatly. After a few days, they could all stand and move. They only needed to calm down and rest
for a while before they fully recovered. Already sick of lying on the bed, the three went to take a
breather outside.
On the mountain peak, the wind was very strong. The three of them enjoyed it immensely. Only
after being stuck on the bed for so long did they knew how pleasurable it was to have the cold
wind blowing like this.
Looking at the figures hard at work below, Wei Sheng sighed, Our sect is going to prosper!!
The mood of Wu Kong Sword Sect had transformed completely. Along the mountain valleys and
in the woods, there were always figures of Wu Kong Sword Sect disciples working hard. All the
disciples eyes were full of admiration and respect when they saw the three of them.
The present Wu Kong Sword Sect was full of vitality and growth. The faces of the disciples were
filled with confidence and motivation that they never had before. In their eyes this vitality Wei
Sheng and the others could see hope, hope and longing for the future of their sect!
As they walked through the mountain, the three of them deeply felt it.
Luo Li nodded. Not bad, after this Sword Test Conference, our sects position in Sky Moon Jie
is set, we are unable to be stopped! His eyes also flashed with yearning and hope. The
prosperity of the sect meant the core disciples would get the greatest benefits. Cultivation was
not an empty building. Without jingshi, without materials, without spells, it was impossible to
catch up to other peoples cultivation speeds.
Zuo Mo was slightly unfocused, his thought wandering.
Shidi, what are you thinking? Wei Sheng noticed Zuo Mos absentmindedness.
Zuo Mo focused and disguised, Im calculating what time I can get the prize.
Wei Sheng couldnt help but grin.
Luo Lis face was also helpless. But he then asked curiously, You are so greedy, but why did
you pick such a crappy item. There are so many good talismans. Wei Sheng and Luo Li had
been very surprised by the jade scroll that Zuo Mo had picked. They had all assumed that Zuo
Mo would pick a fourth-grade talismans, or at the very least, the finest third-grade talisman.
They hadnt expected that he would be a non-descript jade scroll.
Zuo Mo rolled his eyes. If you dont understand, dont talk.

Luo Li was not angry. He remembered just how ugly the sect leader and the others looked when
Zuo Mo had requested the jade scroll, and managed to understand why the sect leader and the
others were so angry.
He met Wei Shengs eyes and smiled. The two of them did not warn Zuo Mo.

Able to walk and move around, the three of them quickly moved back to their own residences.
No one was willing to keep staying in Fragrant Ginger Yard.
Zuo Mo moved back to his Little West Wind Yard.
Lazily soaking in the sun, when he occasionally raised his head, he could see Silly Bird on the
roof top posturing and showing off. If it was any other time, Zuo Mo definitely would have
thrown a stone. But there was a period of time since they saw each other. He found it was quite
endearing.
Xiao Guo was slicing up all kinds of fruits for Shixiong. Li Ying Feng Shijie had brought over
the fruit. Li Ying Feng and Zuo Mo were chatting.
Ha ha, Shidi should quickly recover. This time, Shidi really shocked everyone. Everyone was
left speechless when the ranking came out. Li Ying Feng suddenly thought of something. She
smiled and said, Nan Men Yang entered Dong Fu Hall and became Yu Bais shidi. As to Zong
Ming Yan, supposedly he is very seriously wounded. Shidi has become the most unwelcome
person of Dong Qi Sword Sect. Dong Fu has been very boring recently. Everyone is healing. The
prices of recovery medicines of the market have been skyrocketing
Zuo Mo chomped at the fruit, the juices flying as he mumbled, Doesnt matter, it has nothing to
do with me
Li Ying Fengsmiled and said, Shidi needs to recover faster. Theres many people that have come
to my shop to ask if Shidi is taking orders. Shidis reputation in formations has passed through all
of Sky Moon Jie. Adding on your fame from the Golden Crow Pill, there has been many people
that have placed orders.
Zuo Mo became alert. No news other than this could make him more excited!

Right now, he was penniless!


The gigantic formation belt he set up in the Sword Test Conference had almost taken up all the
materials he had bought from the Hundred Treasure Flying Pavilion. The prize he had picked
was a jade scroll, and there wasnt one piece of jingshi there.
So when he heard Li Ying Fengs news, his eyes became green.
However, he thought and then shook his head. This has to wait until my wounds heal.
Thats natural. Li Ying Feng said. Shidi needs to rest and recover. When your body is good,
you will have everything. Right, Elder Tian Song Zi suddenly announced two days ago that the
local xiuzhe who entered the top one hundred are allowed to enter the secret realm.
Secret realm? Zuo Mos eyes were wide. He said in disbelief, Dong Fu Hall has a secret
realm? They can bear to let us enter?
Yes! Supposedly, it is to nurture the local younger generation. Elder Tian Song Zi especially
made the decision, Li Ying Feng said.
The two chatted for a bit more but Zuo Mo wasnt interested in chatting after Li Ying Fengs
weighty news. Seeing the situation, Li Ying Feng left behind a lot of healing lingdan and left.
Seeing off Li Ying Feng, Zuo Mo pushed Xiao Guo to practice the sword. He then sunk into
thought.
That same day, he made a decision seclusion!
Translator Ramblings: Zuo Mo just keeps digging himself deeper and deeper.
I remember someone predicting Zuo Mo would be in the top three a few chapters back. I cant
remember who it was but there were some of you who were very close with your predictions.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Fifty


Eight Seclusion
This chapter has been brought to you by me, and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter One Hundred and Fifty Eight Seclusion
Zuo Mo did not impulsively decide to enter into seclusion training.

The wounds on his body were mostly healed. The only thing left was rest. He needed to calm
down and organize what he had gained and lost this time. This Sword Test Conference, what he
had encountered was much more than he had originally imagined. Only now did he have the time
to think about it.
There were many things he wanted to ask Pu Yao, like splitting his consciousness. But when he
had first opened his eyes after the conference, he found that Pu Yao was in the middle of
meditation. No matter how he shouted and tried to get Pu to respond, it was useless. He could
only work it out himself.
There were too many things that he needed to think deeply about.
Another important reason that he decided to enter seclusion was the news that Li Ying Feng had
about the secret realm. Zuo Mo knew what a secret realm was. Because he knew it was a rare
opportunity, he decided to enter seclusion!
There would be many opportunities inside the secret realm. If he was lucky and found some rare
materials, he would really make a profit. But it would be wrong to think of the secret realm as his
own ling fields. Tian Song Zi was allowing everyone to explore the secret realm and this
suggested that this secret realm was still unexplored because if it had already been explored and
all the rare materials had been taken awaythen there would be no meaning to letting people
explore it again.
In the secret realm, other than the opportunities, what was more prominent was the danger.
Secret realms were usually guarded by yao beasts. The more rare and valuable the item, the
stronger the guardian yao beast was.
Other than yao beasts, what was harder to defend against was the hearts of people. Direct
benefits meant direct conflicts of interest. Different from the competition of the Great Pine
Pavilion, there would not be judges, no one calling a stop to fights. The fighting would be even
more straightforward and bare. If someone killed for treasure, Zuo Mo wouldnt be surprised.
The world was like this! But it would be too stupid not to attend due to this risk.
To be able to gain something, other than being lucky, it required strength.
He might have been ranked third but he knew his own strength. Luck was a major factor in his
third place ranking. The formations that he was skilled in were not suited for fighting. He
guessed that the sect leader would have the three disciples from their sect to move together at
that time. Undoubtedly, the three pronged trident of Wu Kong Sword Sect would form the
strongest team. After them, it would probably be the team of Yu Bai and Nan Men Yang.

However, Zuo Mo didnt want to drag the others down. Other xiuzhe may avoid them due to their
strength, but those yao beasts wouldnt recognize them.
There were too many comprehensions from this Sword Test Conference that he needed to
organize. He also needed a to do a thorough examination of his Five Colored Pagoda.
Pu Yao was always unreliable at the most crucial times, Zuo Mo thought irritably.

Wu Kong Hall.
Hes in seclusion? Pei Yuan Ran said.
Other than Xin Yan who was still cold and unaffected, the other two appeared to have a
headache.
Yan Le rubbed his forehead and said, He does need to seclude himself and ponder the
experiences he received this time.
Ponder what? Shi Feng Rong was furious when it was mentioned. She clearly remembered the
mockery from the audience. Ponder his formations? Or ponder how to make jingshi? When she
remembered how Zuo Mo had asked when the prizes were being awarded when he heard he was
third, anger poured out of her heart.
Why did she have such a greedy disciple who didnt like the sword?
She couldnt help but peek at the cold Second Shixiong, the anger in her heart growing even
stronger. She knew that Second Shixiong was really angry this time.
This little ruffian, he made Second Shixiong angry! Shi Feng Rong raged. She decided to find a
chance to sort out this lawless guy.
No matter. Let him enter seclusion. Xin Yan suddenly opened to the surprise of everyone else.
They had grown together from childhood and knew each other very well. It just wasnt Shi Feng
Rong who saw he was angry.

Seeing Zuo Mo continuing to delve further into formations and not study what was right, Xin
Yan did not stop him. According to their thinking, Xin Yan should personally have gone and
grabbed Zuo Mo, severely punishing him and then guide him onto the proper path.
Wu Kong Hall was a patch of silence. Everyone was shocked at Xin Yans attitude.
In the silence, Xin Yans cold and pressuring voice echoed.
I will make him understand why sword xiu can unite and lead the world of cultivation!
Wu Kong Formation Sect! He cant go
The murderous and dark voice made the other three shudder. Sympathy came onto their faces.

Zuo Mo didnt know at this time just how decisive Xin Yan Shibos resolution was. He quickly
received his prize. Just like he had imagined, this jade scroll came into his hands without a
problem. His choice surprised many people. The Sword Test Conference might have finished but
the events of the Sword Test Conference still made waves in Dong Fu.
There were praises, and mockery. Zuo Mos choice was the most unexpected choice in the top
ten.
Whatever this Scalping Zombie did always surprised people.
Zuo Mo was not concerned with this. With the jade scroll in his possess, he had no more cares,
perfect for seclusion.
He burrowed into the stone room, and entered meditation.
Inspecting the situation inside his body, he found his state was bad. The wounds he received this
time were much more severe than he had imagined. Under Masters care, the channels in his
body had basically healed, but compared to him at his peak, they had shrunk.
Zuo Mo decided to nurture of his channels.

It was not difficult to nurture channels. It was only using ling power to slowly permeate the
channels and re-awaking the vitality inside. However, it was a detailed job and especially
demanded patience.
Luckily, Zuo Mo was not in a rush. Slowly nurturing the channels, he took the chance and
examined his own body in detail.
The ling power would be absorbed by the mo matrix automatically when it came close to him.
The mo matrix would automatically take in ling power. What Zuo Mo marveled at was that the
mo matrix, other than automatically taking in ling energy, it was like a filter and automatically
purified the power.
Tempering ling power was a step that was unavoidable in cultivation. Ling power that was not
purified was not only unable to be used, but could also harm the body.
But with the marvelous mo matrix, Zuo Mo did not need to spend time on purification.
The problem of storing ling power was still unresolved. The ling power would be absorbed
through the mo matrix into the body, circulate through the channels, and dissipate inside the
body. The greatest storage place inside his body for ling power was his dantian. Compared to the
ling power that was absorbed into his body, it could only be considered a small pond.
The remaining ling power was unable to be stored. They flowed along the channels and
dissipated into the body.
Normal xiuzhe needed to spend long periods of time to absorb ling power, tempering it over and
over to purify it. It would take a long time to fill the dantian.
But Zuo Mo felt the problem was not this.
If a xiuzhe was a container, and the amount of things this container could hold became smaller,
then it definitely was a problem with the container. In other words, something was likely wrong
with the dantian. His thoughts were very clear.
As expected, when he focused his attention on his dantian, he finally understood why his
cultivation would increase so slowly.
The dantian was like a pool, and the ling power the water inside the pool. However, this pool
was marvelous in that, as the water rose, the walls of the pool would also rise. That way, the ling
power stored inside the body would increase. However, the problem was with the mo matrix. He
didnt know what that a**hole, Pu Yao, was thinking! One region of the mo matrix
coincidentally passed through his dantian.

It was like there were two holes in the wall of a pool and once the water inside the pool rose
above the height of the holes, the water would be lost. His ling power was spilling out through
the holes. These two holes were not small, so even though there was water constantly added to
the pool, the height of water inside the pool would not rise.
Zuo Mo couldnt help but grimace.
He really had tasted the bitterness of low cultivation in the Sword Test Conference. His
cultivation was not enough, it meant that he had no strength to face someone else in the open.
Tricks may be hard for people to deal with, but if he used them it too many times, it wouldnt
work.
Damn it!
Even though he knew what the problem was, he didnt know what to do.
Changing the dantian wasnt something a person like him who was just in zhuji could
accomplish.
Without any other solution, he could only open his eyes.
He could only slowly work on the problem of cultivation. It was useless to rush. He could only
comfort himself with the fact that finally knew what the problem was, now he only had to slowly
think of a solution.
Compared to the pause in his ling power, his consciousness had rising quickly and without his
knowledge, he had broken through to Fifth Breath. In the void above his sea of consciousness,
there was another star.
In reality, before the Sword Test Conference, Zuo Mo didnt have many good feelings about the
[Embryonic Breathing Spiritual Cultivation]. It may have been able to increase ling power, but
its primary effect was strengthening the consciousness. For Zuo Mo, the consciousness had been
far less important than ling power. Even more, it was strong in cultivating his consciousness, but
there was no way to use his consciousness. In a person as pragmatic as Zuo Mos eyes, it was
useless.
But now, Zuo Mo placed much more importance on [Embryonic Breathing Spiritual Cultivation]
than any other scripture or spell.
That strange and indescribable state, the ethereal star dust, the feeling as though it was a part of
his body .

Zuo Mo looked at the Five Colored Pagoda in his hand. A feeling rose as though it was
connected to his blood. The little pagoda was like a part of his body, intimate and familiar.
The other reason he entered seclusion was for the Five Colored Pagoda. In the fight during that
last great clash, he had been severely wounded, and the Five Colored Pagoda had also received
severe damage. He had Master to help heal him, but only he could work on the damage of the
Five Colored Pagoda.
The Five Colored Pagoda was dim and dull, and had cracks over the body. If it wasnt for the
feeling of connectedness that existed between them, Zuo Mo would be suspicious that this wasnt
his Five Colored Pagoda.
Feeling the weakness passed on by the Five Colored Pagoda, Zuo Mo couldnt help but reach out
and caress the Five Colored Pagoda.
He closed his eyes, his mind sinking into the Five Colored Pagoda.
Entering the Five Colored Pagoda, he jumped in fright.
Inside the Five Colored Pagoda, the five balls of five element essence were all dim, so faint that
they appeared to be able to vanish at any moment.
The ball of consciousness weakly floated in the middle of the five balls of elemental essence
without any of the liveliness of before. If the Five Colored Pagoda had been the beginnings of a
five element world before, then this five element world was now on the edge of disintegration!
Zuo Mos expression was terrible. The situation was worse than he had imagined!
Translator Ramblings: I feel this chapter is the true analysis of Zuo Mos fight. Hes not being
humble, hes very realistic. Nothing is worth more than his life. At the same time, Pu Yao is not
the internet or Zuo Mos personal assistant. Its probably better that Zuo Mo is able to stand on
his own without Pu Yaos constant help.

Chapter One Hundred and Fifty Nine Gains
The power of the Five Colored Pagoda had left a deep impression on Zuo Mo.

What was most precious was the feeling of connectedness as though it was his arm or finger. He
had never felt the same with other talismans. It was hard to determine just how much he had
imprinted on it, but it was now the most powerful talisman in Zuo Mos possession.
In Zuo Mos eyes, it wasnt just a talisman. It could control the formations. Didnt that mean that
he had an extra set of hands?
He also had a feeling inside that if the Five Colored Pagoda really was ruined, he would also be
affected. There were never such beneficial and fortuitous incidents in this world. If it was
connected deeply to him as though it were his arms, then if his arms broke, how could he be
unaffected?
No matter the cost, he needed to fix the Five Colored Pagoda.
Zuo Mo gritted his teeth. He took out all the materials from his ring and threw them inside the
Pagoda.
The Five Colored Pagoda seemed extremely hungry. When the materials left his hands, they
were sucked away.
One by one, the materials entered the Five Colored Pagoda and were deconstructed and
converted into the five elemental essences.
Zuo Mo saw the materials flow like water into the Five Colored Pagoda and felt pain. These
materials were all bought with large sums of jingshi. Now, they had all been fed to the Five
Colored Pagoda. However, what comforted him slightly was this solution was extremely
effective. The cracks on the body of the Five Colored Pagoda slowly disappeared with speed
visible to the naked eye.
He could feel the five element world inside the Five Colored Pagoda being supplied by large
amounts of five element essence and gradually stabilize.
But
The empty ring left Zuo Mo with a feeling of heartache.
Competing in the Sword Test Conference had completely cost him all his wealth. He had an
impulse to spit blood.
What he wanted to spit blood at even more was the Five Colored Pagoda hadnt fully recovered
even as the last bit of material was absorbed. Compared to the pagodas original condition, it was

still much dimmer in color. Heavens, how large of a quantity of materials would be needed to
completely repair it?!
How much jingshi would that require
Zuo Mo didnt just have any jingshi, and he had no materials left at all. Its been a long time
since he was so poor!
Just at this time, a ball of substance that appeared to be grey mud flew out of the Five Colored
Pagoda into Zuo Mos palm.
Hm! Zuo Mo stilled. This was the first time he had seen the Five Colored Pagoda spit something
out. Quickly, the Five Colored Pagoda passed on information that allowed him to understand
what this grey mud was.
Everything belonged to the five elements, this was an extremely broad generalization. In this
world, there were still a few things that did not belong to the five elements.
The little ball of grey mud in Zuo Mos hands would be the remnants after the Five Colored
Pagoda deconstructed the materials into the five elemental energies. These remains did not
belong inside the five elements so it was not absorbed by the Five Colored Pagoda and was
pushed out.
The corners of Zuo Mos eyes jerked!
Eat mine, drink mine, and now shitting on my hand!
The brat, he was lawless!
Burning in rage, he raised his hand to throw the grey mud at the Five Colored Pagoda. The Five
Colored Pagoda seemed to know Zuo Mo was angry and skipped away to dodge.
But the hand Zuo Mo raised up suddenly stopped, the anger inside disappearing without a trace.
It did not belong inside the five elements!
Right, this stuff didnt belong inside the five elements!
Five elements contain all. There were extremely small number of things that were not, and
without an exception these items were all extremely rare.
These days, what did rarity mean?

One word expensive!


Zuo Mo suddenly became excited. Thats right, the rarer it was, the more expensive it was! The
grey mud in his hands was not inside the five elements and definitely should be valuable.
Thinking about it, he carefully scraped the mud off his hands into a jade bottle and then put the
jade bottle inside a sandalwood box before putting it inside the ring.
Sometime in the future, he should inquire to how much jingshi the grey mud was worth.
The Five Colored Pagoda temporarily stabilized, Zuo Mos mood was better now that he found
another use for the Five Colored Pagoda.
Looking at the Five Colored Pagoda, he was reminded of his consciousness and the stardust the
stars in his consciousness had slowly scattered. However, when he inspected his consciousness,
there had not been any change. That was normal. With the slow speed that the stars shed off star
dust, it would take a long time for the star dust to spread into the entirety of his consciousness.
Zuo Mo speculated a large amount of stardust was needed to create evident change. Of course, it
could also just be his dream. Maybe there would not be a change at all.
He quickly threw the problem of the consciousness to one side.
Formations. His abilities with formations had surprised people, and also increased his
confidence. Whenever he thought about the peerless power of the [Moon Chime Sound Storm] of
the [Skyring Moon Chime Formation], he still couldnt help but become excited!
One against five, each person multiple times stronger than him. Even if it was only one move,
and it was the Five Colored Pagoda controlling it, even if it was a fight inside the formation belt

Even so, that battle was something that he would never have been able to imagine before. Even
now, he still felt it was like a dream.
If he had a deeper understanding of formations, if his control could be stronger, if he had been
more careful in setting the formations
A fight like that could appear again, it could be copied.
Even more, he now had an introductory formation jade scroll from Kun Lun!
Suddenly, Zuo Mo was full of confidence about the future.

Xiao Guo absentmindedly practiced the sword. Shixiong was in seclusion. For some reason,
when Shixiong was absent, her motivation to practice the sword was much less.
This was not right, Xiao Guo told herself.
But the sword in her hand was still so heavy, and her steps weak.
You have to concentrate when practicing the sword! A voice came from behind her.
Xiao Guos movements stopped. Turning, her apple face was full of joyful surprise. Shixiong!
Zuo Mo tapped Xiao Guos head, taking on the mannerism of a shixiong to lecture, Not
concentrating on practicing the sword, do you want to be disciplined? En, look at your sword, so
weak, it only has the appearance
Seeing Shixiong continue on, spit flying, Xiao Guos eyes couldnt help but smile into two
crescent moons.
After lecturing Xiao Guo, Zuo Mo laid down on the lounge chair lazily, without any awareness
of being a role model. Silly Bird stared disdainfully at Zuo Mo and continued to preen her own
feathers.
The feeling of the sun on his body was so good.
Shixiong, you finished your seclusion? Xiao Guo timidly asked.
Oh, yes, its done. Zuo Mo stretched lazily, closing his eyes and enjoying the warm sunshine.
He had gained greatly from this seclusion.
Kun Lun was really Kun Lun!
Each time it was mentioned, Zuo Mo was full of awe for this legendary sect. He had rejoiced
countless times that he had chosen this jade scroll and how wise he was. Just an introductory
formation jade scroll but it contained so many kinds of formations. The first time he read the jade
scroll, he was completely stunned.

In his eyes, this jade scroll had the qualifications to be called the [The Complete Book Of Basic
Formations]!
Zuo Mo could be considered to be a hobbyist in collecting jade scrolls but he had never thought
that a jade scroll could contain such rich and comprehensive content. In comparison, the jade
scrolls of the sect were so simple and rough it was embarrassing.
Inside the formation, there were more than two hundred types of basic formations, and there
were all kinds of analyses.
These analyses that came from the Kun Lun formation experts had broadened Zuo Mos vision.
All of his own ideas that he had been very proud of had been encompassed in the breadth of the
jade scroll. Just a few phrases on each formation were sharp as a knife, pinpointing the essence
of each profound and cryptic formation. Each formation was easily deconstructed and their
relation to each other was revealed with clarity.
Zuo Mo was entranced.
This wasnt learning, it was a peerless pleasure!
The moment he picked up the jade scroll, he could not stop himself from delving in.
Without sleep or rest, nor drink and food, he muttered to himself like he was sleep-talking, and
laughed excitedly like he was insane.
When he finished reading the last analysis in the jade scroll, he was extremely depressed.
An introductory jade scroll could have such power!
What he gained was multiple times what he had imagined. He was like a child that had been
swimming in a pond and suddenly saw the ocean.
Is Shixiong going to seclusion again? Xiao Guo asked timidly.
Oh, no. Theres no jingshi to get in seclusion. Zuo Mo lazily said. He suddenly thought of a
question and asked, Where are Eldest Shixiong and Luo Li Shixiong? What are they busy with?
Hearing that Zuo Mo wasnt going back into seclusion, Xiao Guos eyes turned to crescents.
Eldest Shixiong and Luo Li Shixiong are all in seclusion.
Zuo Mo made a sound of acknowledgement. He wasnt surprised.

Dong Fu.
The Sword Test Conference had finished. All the experts went back to their own homes. Dong Fu
instantly became less lively. Of course, compared to the Dong Fu of the past, it was much more
prosperous. This years Sword Test Conference had caused Dong Fu to stand out in the thirteen
primary towns.
Not long in the future, it would be the time Tian Song Zi promised to open the secret realm. Even
though they could not attend, but many still stayed, especially those who desperately needed
certain hard to obtainmaterials. What secret realms were most famous for was producing all
kinds of treasures. Larger material merchants also sent people to wait.
Zuo Mo rode Silly Bird, and headed straight to the Hundred Treasures Flying Pavilion.
There were many more people in the Hundred Treasures Flying Pavilion which surprised him.
Coming for the second time, he was not as cautious as before.
Welcoming Zuo Mo was still the same storekeeper as last time.
When he saw Zuo Mo, he congratulated, Congratulations, congratulations! Mister Zuo really is
extraordinary. That last attack made my heart stop! Then he pushed his voice lower and said,
Hee hee, many thanks to Mister Zuo!
Zuo Mo stilled. How so?
Hee hee, Mister Zuo had great skill to forge the Five Colored Pagoda into a soul tethered
talisman! Our store also has benefited!
Zuo Mo finally understood. However, what he realized was not the increase in the customers, but
why the Five Colored Pagoda was so powerful now. So it had become his soul tethered talisman!
To a guy like him who had made deep study of talismans, how could he not know soul tethered
talismans?
Soul tethered talisman

He was slightly excited but did not show it on his face. Just like usual, he grasped the main point.
Ha, thats great. In the future, give me a bit of a discount!
Hearing this, the storekeeper could only laugh along.
Zuo Mo was not concerned, asking, Is Miss Su here?
Yes, please come with me! The storekeeper hurriedly reached forward to usher him, clearly
having already received orders.
Translator Ramblings: Seclusion means a power-up its almost a universal rule.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Sixty


Intense Fire Dan
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and cactuar0.
Chapter One Hundred and Sixty Intense Fire Dan
Su had been waiting for Zuo Mo for a long time.
Even though she was uncertain that Zuo Mo would aid her since she had not helped Zuo Mo like
originally planned. She waited rather than going to Wu Kong Mountain due to her trust in Lin
Qian. For some unknown reason this extremely mysterious youth instilled her with confidence.
When do we begin? Zuo Mo asked.
Im not in a hurry. A jade bottle appeared on Sus hand. This is Fort Chaos Intense Fire Dan.
Consume it first, Ill help you stabilize the medicine power.
He hesitated but still took the jade bottle. Opening it, he could feel a wave of heat flood out of
the jade bottle. Lying inside were beads that seemed to be carved out of red jade.
The Stalagmite fire was a cold fire. The fire power in this Intense Fire Dan was clearly hot fire.
The two were of completely different attributes. It would most likely be troublesome to merge
them together.
However, Zuo Mo still decided to try because he had consumed the Golden Crow Pills which
contained the Golden Crow Fire which was also a hot fire.
The two sat in the seclusion room with Su positioned behind Zuo Mo.

Intense Fire Dan was made from underground lava. It contains Lava Earth Fire and is extremely
domineering. You have to be careful. Su did not waste words, putting her hand on Zuo Mos
back.
Zuo Mo shoved an Intense Fire Dan into his mouth.
Once the Intense Fire Dan entered his mouth, it turned to an extremely hot stream of energy. This
hot stream was boiling like it was lava. Zuo Mo felt as though it would burn through his body.
As expected, it truly was domineering!
Not daring to slack off, Zuo Mo hurriedly channeled ling power to surround this bright red hot
stream! If he allowed this hot stream to run rampant through his body, it would quickly damage
his channels.
Zuo Mos skin that was exposed to the air suddenly became bright red like glowing hot metal.
Su didnt dare to slack off either, channeling ling power to carefully permeate Zuo Mos body.
Zuo Mo detected ling power entering from his back. He did not panic but carefully inspected it.
His consciousness was extremely large. Since his body was definitely his home field, he easily
saw through Sus ling power.
Such a strange ling power! Zuo Mo couldnt help but be interested.
Sus ling power was not flowing like water, but like countless moving strands. It seemed to be
composed of countless little fish into schools and was extremely unique. He remembered that
Sus sword scripture was magnetic power. Was this the trick to it?
Zuo Mo noted it down.
Su could never dream that as she helped Zuo Mo digest the medicinal power, Zuo Mo managed
to comprehend some of the intricacies of her ling power. It really wasnt that she was inattentive,
but Zuo Mos present consciousness was far outside of the expectations of normal people. Who
would think a zhuji would have such a large consciousness?
Zuo Mo finally experienced just how great the gap was between ningmai and zhuji.
Sus ling power was not fierce, but it was endless. When the domineering Intense Fire Dan was
surrounded by this ling power, it was unable to move.
Zuo Mo knew it was time for him to act!

What Su could do was help him stabilize the medicinal power, but only he could process it.
He didnt immediately let his ling power stream over, but used his consciousness to inspect the
strong and domineering medicinal power.
Su carefully controlled her ling power. Since it was inside Zuo Mos body, her control was
greatly decreased.
After a moment, Zuo Mos ling power was still motionless without any intentions of going
forward.
Why wasnt he doing anything? She furrowed her brows. She didnt understand why Zuo Mo
was procrastinating. Did he not know how to process medicinal power?
Just as she felt puzzled, Zuo Mos ling power suddenly moved.
Two thin tendrils of ling power charged at the medicinal power she was stabilizing.
Just this little bit of ling power?
She was slightly discontent. What was this guy doing? Using this little bit of ling power, how
long would it take to process all the medicinal power? She securely held onto the medicinal
power but the medicinal power of the Intense Fire Dan was extremely domineering. Even though
it was caught in the grasp of her ling power, but it was like the wild beast in a cage and struggled
to break free. Her ling power was slowly being consumed, even if the rate was not fast.
At this time, another two streams of ling power went to the back of the medicinal power.
Still not enough!
Su wanted to remind Zuo Mo that processing medicinal power required large amounts of ling
power, and for him not to skimp on ling power at this time.
Before she could speak, there was another two streams of ling power!
Two streams!
Another two!

In an extremely short period of time, Zuo Mos ling power turned to eighty something slender
streams of ling power.
Su gaped with wide eyes. What, what was this
The scene that took place was completely out of her imagination.
The eighty-something streams of ling power were like extremely slippery earthworms that
burrowed into the ling power she had wrapped around the Intense Fire Dan. In the blink of an
eye, the domineering and explosive medicinal power was cut by Zuo Mos tiny ling power into
seven or eight pieces.
Looking at the domineering medicinal power slowly nibbled away by those tiny ling power. No,
it wasnt nibbling. Even though they moved bit by bit, but the processing speed was extremely
fast.
In a short moment, there was only a little bit of the medicinal power left.
Quickly, all the medicinal power of the Intense Fire Dan had been processed.
What remained after processing was a strand of extremely pure deep red fire power. Zuo Mo
could feel the terrifying temperature contained in this tiny bit of fire power. It was all the essence
of the entire Intense Fire Dan and it was Zuo Mos target.
It was rare to see such pure fire power, even if it was just a thread. Thinking about what Su had
said, that the Intense Fire Dan was made from lava deep underground, it was no wonder that the
fire power contained was so pure. In the descriptions of flames in the [Yin Fire Bead Chapter], all
kinds of earth fire were not low-grade fire seeds.
This pure thread of earth fire, to him, it was the best nourishment!
Zuo Mo carefully controlled the Stalagmite fire. As the Stalagmite fire appeared, a dark and cold
presence instantly spread.
The milky white Stalagmite fire quickly wrapped around the thread of deep red earth fire.
One was yin and cold, the other was hot, yet the two strangely merged together. Zuo Mo could
clearly feel that a wondrous change had occurred after the Stalagmite fire had absorbed this
thread of earth fire. However, limited by the amount of earth fire, the change could not be clearly
seen.

This surprised him. The trouble he had predicted did not occur. The entire merging process was
so smooth he was shocked.
There were thirty six Intense Fire Dan. In other words, there were still thirty five threads of earth
fire!
He began to feel anticipation. If all thirty six threads of Lava Earth Fire was merged into the
Stalagmite fire, what change would occur?
Since there was no problems with the merging, Zuo Mo instantly increased his speed, throwing
another Intense Fire Dan into his mouth.
Su steadily stabilized her ling power. Without her notice, a layer of fine sweat appeared on her
forehead. She started to feel the burden. Zuo Mos speed was truly too fast, processing one pill
after the next. She didnt have a chance to breathe and rest.
She desired very much to stop but she suppressed it. A ningmai xiuzhe asking a zhuji to stop and
rest, she couldnt say it! Even more, all she had to do was just stabilize the medicinal power. The
ling power consumed in processing was even greater. Zuo Mo hadnt relented, so how could she?
She could only bear it!
Up until now, she did not understand how Zuo Mo did all this.
It should have been the person doing the processing who used up ling power more quickly, but
up until now, after more than ten Intense Fire Dan, Zuo Mo did not show any signs of
exhaustion. How was it possible? He was just a zhuji xiuzhe!
Su gritted her teeth. Her ling power was tightly wrapped around the medicinal power of the
Intense Fire Dan. Zuo Mos ling power needed to go through her ling power in order to interact
with the medicinal power, so she clearly perceived every movement of Zuo Mos ling power.
But even if she knew, she still found it impossible.
Zuo Mo used several dozen streams of ling power, each of which was controlled extremely
delicately. It was clear that this was not the first time he had done this. This was the first time she
had seen a processing method like Zuo Mos strange one. She couldnt help but admire Zuo Mos
idea. To cut the medicinal power into multiple parts, dividing before processing. It could greatly
increase the efficiency.
What shocked her was those each of the tiny streams of ling power were as sharp as knifes. Their
power may have been small, but they could easily cut the medicinal power into little pieces.

She had more experience and her cultivation was much higher than Zuo Mos , so she naturally
understood how he accomplished it.
He only needed to find the weakest spot in the medicinal power to achieve this result.
But the crux of the problem was, how could Zuo Mo be so fast and accurate in finding the most
fragile place on the medicinal power? Her ling power was wrapped around the medicinal power
but she knew she couldnt do such a thing.
Not just her, even her shixiong Gu Rong Ping definitely could not do such a delicate task!
This was probably Zuo Mos secret!
Having thought it through, the shock in Sus mind gradually faded. Each person had their own
skills. A person that displayed such talent at the Sword Test Conference like Zuo Mo, must have
some unique talent.
Her mind calming down, she started to admire Zuo Mos performance.
Zuo Mos fine control of ling power truly could live up to the word performance. Several
dozen strands of ling power were being controlled according to his wishes, cooperating among
themselves easily like an army. They all had their individual tasks combining to create the larger
picture. The explosive and domineering medicinal power in comparison was like a gigantic beast
which only looked fierce yet had no substance, and was easily dismembered. The entire process
was fast and accurate, clean and crisp without any unnecessary movements.
Seeing them move was a pleasure.
However, this also exposed that Zuo Mos ling power was not strong. It was beneficial in
formations to have strong fine control over ling power, but for sword scriptures, there were not
many benefits.
In a short period of time, Su made her conclusion.
In her eyes, Zuo Mo was still strong but this strength was different than others. His weakness
was also clear. In other words, Zuo Mos strength could only be expressed under certain
conditions. She thought about the Sword Test Conference and the shocking formation that Zuo
Mo had set up. Hadnt he created an environment where he could use his strength?
She couldnt help but shake her head. In her eyes, a strength like Zuo Mo was superficial, he had
too many limitations.

Sword cultivation was the correct path. No matter the circumstances, sword xiu could grasp their
own fate! Thinking about it, she strengthened her resolve to cultivate the sword, full of
anticipation towards the sword billet that was to be forged.
Six hours later, the last Intense Fire Dan landed in his stomach and quickly turned into a thread
of Lava Earth Fire.
As the thirty-sixth thread of Lava Earth Fire merged, the Stalagmite fire suddenly changed!
Translator Ramblings: Su and Zuo Mo get started on forging her new sword. Sus review of Zuo
Mos strength is pretty much what Zuo Mo has for himself, not enough ling power so he needs
other tools.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Sixty One


Forging The Sword Billet
This chapter has been brought to you by me, and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter One Hundred and Sixty One Forging the Sword Billet
The Stalagmite Fire suddenly grew as though oil had been poured on the fire. The flame jumped
in height, the presence increasing along with it.
Zuo Mo couldnt help but become nervous. The most important moment had come.
The large Stalagmite Fire spat like a furious beast, the cold and explosive presence spreading
into the surroundings. Even Zuo Mos channels were affected, feeling like they were pierced by
needles.
Su hurriedly took back her ling power. At this time, her ling power was unable to help Zuo Mo,
and would only distract him.
She opened her eyes and saw Zuo Mo trembling as he sat in front of her. His forehead was
covered in a layer of frost.
Such a powerful cold fire!
Su was shocked inside. She stared nervously at Zuo Mo. If the merging this time failed, then
there definitely wouldnt be any forging of her sword billet.
Zuo Mos heart was in the air. He had done what he could do. The rest was up to fate.

As time passed, the restless Stalagmite Fire slowly quieted. The flame continued to shrink down
and finally stabilized.
The new Stalagmite Fire had formed!
The present Stalagmite Fire was completely different compared to before. First, the size was
about one third larger than before. The biggest difference was the past Stalagmite Fire had been
milky white but the present Stalagmite Fire was surprisingly divided into three levels.
The outermost layer was the same milky white flame as before, and the middle was a dark red
flame. What surprised Zuo Mo the most was the black fire in the very center. Even though it was
just a thread, it was still easily detectable. The three levels were clearly divided.
The white flame was the Stalagmite Fire, the deep red flame was the Lava Earth Fire processed
from the Intense Fire Dan, then what was the thread of black fire? Zuo Mo was slightly curious.
After investigating, he finally understood. This extremely thin strand of black fire was actually
the toxin which had infected the flame when he had processed the Inky Black Lotus seed last
time! If it wasnt for the abnormal change this time, he wouldnt have detected that his fire seed
contained such a powerful toxin. What he hadnt even thought about was that toxins could turn
into flames!
The new flame was very different from the past Stalagmite Fire and it felt different to control.
The cold and yin energy had greatly decreased but the shift between ice and fire was more easy
to accomplish. What Zuo Mo did not understand at all was how the thread of black fire could be
used. In this three leveled fire, the Stalagmite Fire was of the lowest grade, then it was the Lava
Earth Fire. The highest grade was this black fire which Zuo Mo knew nothing about. Upon
further thought, Zuo Mo felt it was normal. This thread of black fire was received through
processing the fourth-grade Inky Black Lotus Seed. That was fourth-grade!
The Stalagmite Fire was just a second-grade fire seed.
He didnt hurry, slowly exploring the new flame. This was a completely new flame. Even the
[Yin Fire Bead Chapter] did not describe this kind of flame. This meant that Zuo Mo could only
explore and understand on his own.
Being deep in his investigation of the new flame, Zuo Mo forgot the passage of time.
Su noticed Zuo Mos body had resumed normal. The frost on his forehead had disappeared. She
released a breath. Seeing that Zuo Mo seemed to be in meditation, she didnt hurry him, sitting

down at the side to recover her ling power. She had waited so long, she didnt care about a few
more days.

Zuo Mo sat for three days.


When he opened his eyes again, other than exhaustion, there was a light that was unable to be
disguised in his eyes.
Sus heart relaxed.
After another day, Zuo Mo had recovered to his optimal state and was finally going to start
forging the sword billet.
Zuo Mo did not allow Su to watch. If people watched, it was easy for the forger to be disturbed.
He went into a seclusion room. The materials he needed had already been placed there. There
was also a pile of jingshi for Zuo Mo to recover his ling power.
Zuo Mo snickered. He naturally would take the jingshi. Starting from now until he successfully
forged the billet, he would stay inside the room. Su personally stood guard outside.
He took out a jade scroll. The jade scroll contained all the formations that needed to be carved
onto each sword billet as well as the method to forge the sword billet. There was nothing
exceptional about the forging method. Zuo Mo only needed to glance through it to understand
the process.
His mind was quickly attracted to the four kinds of formations.
These were four kinds of formations he had never seen before. Just this was enough for him to be
full of interest. To allow the forger to be able to successfully finish the forging, the jade scroll
had extremely detailed descriptions of the four formations.
After he finished, Zuo Mo couldnt help but inhale sharply.
A fourth-grade formation!
Four kinds of completely different fourth-grade formations!

Now he understood why Su hadnt managed to find someone to forge the sword billet until now.
Each sword billet needed to have a fourth-grade formation carved onto it. Four sword billets,
four completely different kinds of fourth-grade formations.
Also there was a strange connection between these four formations.
Zuo Mo had thought that he had properly prepared, found that the difficulty in forging the sword
billets was much higher than he had predicted. It was much much higher!
He helplessly shook his head. He really was going to take a loss on this job! This difficulty, he
could have asked for a much higher price. Zuo Mo felt deep regret for having lost such a good
opportunity, especially since he was now penniless.
His attention went back to the formations. The first step he needed to do was understand these
four formations.
If he didnt understand the formations, how could he carve the formations on the small sword
billets?
If this was before the Sword Test Conference, he would have definitely patted his ass and left.
Four kinds of completely different fourth-grade formations was definitely outside of his abilities.
Zuo Mo had just upgraded his fire seed and bathed in the introductory formations of the jade
scroll from Kun Lun, leaving his confidence at its peak.
He decided to challenge this difficult task!
According to the description on the jade scroll, he started to study the four types of formations.
From this, it was possible to see how much help the Kun Lun jade scroll was to him! Having
studied the Kun Lun jade scroll, Zuo Mos vision and understanding had gone up several levels.
Fourth-grade formations. Naturally, they had places that were profound and cryptic, especially
when it was four completely different fourth-grade formations.
But Zuo Mo, in the span of five days, slowly managed to grasp the four kinds of formations bit
by bit.
When the four kinds of formations appeared in front of him, his heart was filled with an
indescribable feeling of accomplishment. All of his exhaustion washed away. His heart was so
free he wanted to howl.
Zuo Mo did not use the double Four-Turn Fire formation that Lin Qian suggested. He planned to
use this chance to try out his new fire seed.

In any case, it wasnt his stuff, he thought heartlessly.


Zuo Mo put the four pieces of Cold Magnet in front of him. When he had cut the Cold Magnet
last time, they were not of the same size. However, this was not a big problem for him.
Putting up a Ling Gathering Formation, he sat within the formation, the Five Colored Pagoda
floating in front of him. The Five Colored Pagoda could greatly increase his abilities to control
the five elements. Control of fire was naturally included.
He flipped his palm and the new fire seed appeared above the tip of the Five Colored Pagoda.
Zuo Mo decided to name this new fire seed [Inky Lava White Fire]. Since no one had named it
before, it was up to him.
A black center, deep red in the middle flame, and milky white on the outside.
The Inky Lava White Fire silently burned tamely without any of the explosiveness previous.
Zuo Mos eyes became serious. He threw the smallest piece of Cold Magnet into the Inky Lava
White Fire.
His ling power started to flow towards the Inky Lava White Fire. The flame grew and wrapped
around the Cold Magnet. The first step he needed to do was to use the flame to rid the Cold
Magnet of any impurities it had. This was just a matter of large amounts of time. However, that
did not include Zuo Mo. His consciousness was strong. He could easily detect where the
impurities were in the cold magnet. This way, his efficiency was much higher.
He only spent one day to purify the piece of Cold Magnet.
In this time, what he needed to do was maintain a steady output of ling power. With the aid of the
mo matrix and the Five Colored Pagoda, this laborious process was extremely easy.
Next was forging the Cold Magnet into the shape of a sword.
Zuo Mo took a deep breath and increased the amount of ling power he was channelling. The Inky
Lava White Fire jumped up. In the seclusion room, cold and hot, two different presences, crashed
together, and created explosions.
Inside the flame, the Cold Magnet slowly melted until it became a puddle of metal liquid.
What was strange was the metal liquid was not red but a strange black-blue that released a strong
chilling presence.

Under the Inky Lava White Fire, the Five Colored Pagoda suddenly spun, faster and faster until
it became a five colored shadow.
The metal liquid inside the fire seemed to be pulled by an invisible force and slowly changed
shape.
Time passed and sweat appeared on Zuo Mos forehead. His breathing became panting, and he
seemed to be under a great burden. However, under his control, the spinning of the Five Colored
Pagoda did not slow, and still kept on increasing speed!
Inside the flame, the metal liquid slowly flowed until it was almost in the shape of a sword.
At this time, Zuo Mo finally had a chance to take a breather and rest. The Ling Gathering
Formation around him had already been expended and turned to dust. He used the change to
make another Ling Gathering Formation. The most important step was coming! Zuo Mo widened
his eyes, not daring to relax.
The metal liquid slowly solidified. Suddenly, a bright blue appeared on the black-blue metal
liquid.
Zuo Mos mind jumped. His hands bloomed like flowers, spell after spell were cast from his
hands into the sword billet within the flames. The sword billet still did not change. Not good, the
flame was not strong enough!
Zuo Mo gritted his teeth, channelling ling power again. The black flame at the very center of the
Inky Lava White Flame was like a slender black tongue that licked the sword billet. At the same
time, his hands moved again!
Light after light was cast into the flame.
The bright blue sword billet suddenly lit up. As the light of the spells landed on the sword billet,
it was as though the light was clearly carved onto the surface of the sword billet.
Zuo Mo didnt dare to pause. His eyes wide, all the ling power in his body moving, his hair
standing on end. He was like a strong whirlpool. The ling power from the Ling Gathering
Formation was pulled by an invisible force to flood towards him.
Large amounts of ling power flooded into his body. Even though there was the mo matrix, but
Zuo Mo still felt pain.
At this time, he didnt have the effort to call out in pain. The finger motions of his hands sped up
again, the light of the spells continuously feeding into the sword billet.

Such fierce and extreme forging continued for six whole hours.
A stream of fresh blood silently streamed out of the corner of his mouth, snaking down.
The blurring fingers suddenly stopped in front of his body, the last spell accurately hitting the
sword billet inside the flames.
Diiiiiiiing!
The sword billet gently hummed!
The light of the sword billet suddenly brightened and then dimmed until it disappeared.
A small black-blue sword billet silently floated in the air.

Ten days later.


Guarding outside the door, Su suddenly raised her head, joyous surprise on her face.
Translator Ramblings: The name is a mouthful, bu it is all Zuo Mo terrible naming sense.

Chapter One Hundred and Sixty Two Reselling
Four blue-black sword billets floated vertically in front of Su. There seemed to be an invisible
magnetism between the sword billets. She reached out to touch one of them. The other three also
moved along with it. The four sword billets maintained their distance from each other, all of
them pointing away from each other in a compass arrangement.
The joy in Sus eyes became even heavier. The four sword billets marched around her.

The storekeeper found it wondrous. Amazing craftsmanship! The four swords are as one, able
to attack and defend, truly the finest! If it can be tempered over time, this sword would be hard to
trace!
Zuo Mo was tired but he was still quite alert. Finishing the sword billets, he found himself
extremely relaxed.
Having finished this, I need to leave. Zuo Mo prepared to leave.
Su suddenly called Zuo Mo. Mister Zuo, please wait! This one had not helped during the Sword
Test Conference, yet Mister Zuo still kept to your promise and helped me forge the sword billets.
This little girl is extremely grateful. Mister Zuo, please take this bottle of Dying Flowing Moon!
Sus gaze was sincere, unable to let go of the four sword billets.
Zuo Mo naturally wouldnt be polite. Dying Flowing Moon was very good! Quickly taking the
Dying Flowing Moon, he said piously, Then this one will accept.
He thought of something and turned to say to the storekeeper. I have something here I want to
ask Storekeeper to take a look.
The storekeeper hurriedly said, It would be my honor! If the reputation of Zuo Mos strength
was why they did not dare to slight him, now, after successfully forging the four sword billets,
Zuo Mos skill in forging received more respect from the storekeeper. The storekeeper and the
others were business people. Their business was also in talismans. Why would they ever offend a
cultivator who had limitless potential and was skilled in forging?
Zuo Mo took out a wooden box from the ring. Opening the box, he took out a jade bottle.
The two saw Zuo Mo was so serious, and became more curious to what treasure he was taking
out.
Zuo Mo handed the jade bottle to the storekeeper, saying, This item is not inside the five
elements, but this one does not know what it is. Please, Storekeeper, take a look!
Not inside the five elements! Sus expression changed.
The storekeeper also slightly changed expression but maintained the sternness in his expression.
How good a storekeepers eyes were was the most important measure of a storekeepers skill. He
didnt want to ruin his own reputation.

Carefully taking out the cork, he pour out the grey mud inside the bottle onto a snowy-white jade
plate.
After studying for a few moments, he solemnly announced, This one cannot distinguish what
this substance is, but it truly is not inside the five elements. It doesnt seem like just one
substance, but is a mixture of a variety of different substances not inside the five elements. It
really is curious.
What he found it strange was that materials not inside the five elements were rare, and it was
hard to even find one or two, so he did not know how such a complex mixture was produced.
Zuo Mo stilled. He suddenly remembered the large variety of materials he had thrown into the
Five Colored Pagoda. The composition of this grey mud must be very complex. He couldnt help
but admire the skill of the storekeeper.
What is the value of this substance? Zuo Mo asked.
The storekeeper shook his head. Hard to say. He then explained, If it was one substance, this
one can easily set a price. The composition of this substance is extremely complex, and probably
has a special use. Maybe it could be used in a flying sword. Materials not inside the five
elements, if added into flying swords, can increase the grade of flying swords.
He glanced at the four flying swords floating in front of Su and said, If Miss Su could add this
substance into the four sword billets before they were forged, the grade would have increased
greatly.
Vexation came into Sus eyes. But since the formations on the sword billet had taken form, there
was nothing to do so she did not say anything.
Zuo Mo was very curious. Substances not of the five elements can increase the grade of flying
swords? Ive never heard of this.
The storekeeper saw Zuo Mo was interested and said, It is hard to find substances not of the
five elements. The price has never dropped, and dependent on the attributes of the material, the
effect is different. However, one quality is common to all. They are extremely attractive to ling
power, especially ling power that is not strongly oriented to the five elements. For roaming xiu
that cultivate the five elements, this is not a good thing, but to us sword xiu, it is the best. Most of
the sword sect in our jie do not have ling power oriented to the five elements.
He had originally wanted to say that five element sword scriptures didnt have much of a future,
when he suddenly remembered the sword scripture that Zuo Mo practiced was a five element
sword scripture so he quickly changed his wording.

Hearing this, Zuo Mo instantly became excited. Coming from a sword sect, he instantly realized
the value of the grey mud on his hands.
If it is only used as material for flying swords, storekeeper, give a price. Zuo Mo said.
The storekeeper hesitated and reported a price, Two hundred pieces of third-grade jingshi.
As he finished, Su suddenly opened, Three hundred pieces of third-grade jingshi, can Mister
Zuo part with this? After several interactions with Zuo Mo, she had figured out his general
personality. This guy was clear and hard to trick, but as long as there was enough money, he
could be tempted.
Okay! Without another word, Zuo Mo agreed.
Three hundred pieces of third-grade jingshi was far beyond the price in his heart. The grey mud
was just the waste from the Five Colored Pagoda, and easy to get.
Su was also crisp in handing over the jingshi to give to Zuo Mo.
Having jingshi, Zuo Mo felt his heart rest. He sighed inside. As expected, with food in his hand,
his heart wouldnt panic.
Three hundred pieces of third-grade jingshi. It wasnt much but it wasnt a small amount.
However, in the Hundred Treasures Flying Pavilion, it was only enough to buy one talisman. Zuo
Mo could only reluctantly leave. The stuff of the Hundred Treasure Flying Pavilion was good,
but the price wasnt something normal people could pay.
His goal was businesses with lower prices, for example, He Rong.
Among the people that Zuo Mo knew, Fu Jin was a snakehead. His connections were complex
and could always obtain things difficult to find. However, if it was mainstream materials, he
didnt have any advantages. He Rong and Zuo Mo had worked together before, their working
relationship was well established.
When He Rong saw Zuo Mo, he was extremely surprised. He quickly gave a smile, Zuo ye
coming to this little shop, it is our honor!
Zuo Mos name was like the sun right now, a hot commodity in the entire Sky Moon Jie. He
Rong put himself extremely low.

Does Boss He find me too old? The first words that Zuo Mo said made He Rongs expression
change but his next words made him release a breath. Treating an old friend like this, it really is
too courteous! Just call me Xiao Zuo.
He Rong could not be blamed for being so nervous. Compared to before, Zuo Mo was someone
that was famous in Dong Fu. Businesspeople like He Rong saw even farther into the future. Wu
Kong Sword Sect, who had three disciples of limitless potential and four jindan experts, would
definitely rise.
Wu Kong Sword Sect was abnormally mysterious. No one knew what their conduct was like so
when outsiders faced them, they naturally were careful.
He Rong was very experienced, and naturally went along with the flow, pretending to be
familiar, Look, look, you call me He Boss, but wanting me to call you Xiao Zuo, this is not
right. If we are brothers, just call me Old He.
Having received such fame, Zuo Mos conduct did not seem different than before, without any
pride. Thinking out the core disciples of those sects that he usually had relations with, He Rong
couldnt help but sigh. If Wu Kong Sword Sect did not rise, then there was no justice in the
world.
Ha ha, right. We have history. Zuo Mo said. He had interacted countless times before with Fu
Jin and the others. He was very familiar with all this.
He Rong pointed at Zuo Mo, smiling as he said, I know you wont just come for nothing. Say it,
selling or buying?
Zuo Mo snicked. Old He knows me so well. Im planning on buying some five element
materials.
Five element materials? He Rong had a puzzled expression. What do you want that for? He
suddenly realized, Right, my memory, you are also skilled in forging and dan-making!
Zuo Mo didnt explain, only smiling and saying, I want to pick some materials strong in five
element power, do you have any?
Good kinds, or normal?
Normal.
Come with me. He Rong nodded and said to Zuo Mo, walking at the front.

He Rongs store was composed of the front shop and the back yard. Zuo Mo followed him
through the store into the back yard. Passing through the yard and into the inner compound, Zuo
Mo finally noticed that the doorway to the compound was full of jinzhi.
Even with Zuo Mos eyes, he couldnt help but be shocked. Some of these jinzhi were extremely
powerful, and confusion and illusory jinzhi were countless.
Just as he was puzzled, He Rong suddenly stopped. His hands cast multiple spells. A door of
light appeared in front of them.
Come in. He Rong stepped inside the door first.
Zuo Mo was curious and hurried to follow.
Stepping inside the door of light, the space in front of him suddenly became vast. There were
hundreds of ten zhang high shelves made from pinewood arranged into lines. The shelves were
filled with all kinds of materials, and a strange odor wafting in the air.
It was the first time Zuo Mo had seen something this spectacular. He thought inside that He
Rongs business was much larger than he had imagined!
He Rong did not show it, but he was not a simple character!
Zuo Mo felt his steps were much lighter than usual. He made a sound and looked down at the
ground.
He Rong noticed Zuo Mos shock. He smiled and said, Brother Zuo must rarely come to the
stores. He then explained, Storage areas would usually have a [Light Feather Formation] on
the ground. The workers can float in the air, and it is convenient to fetch items. If they
accidentally drop something, the item would not be damaged.
Zuo Mo instantly understood, So thats why!
His feet slightly used force and he was like a feather that floated into the air. What was even
more particular was that he could freely adjust his direction in the air. The design was amazing!
He Rong had a smile. He had the desire to show his strength when he decided to take Zuo Mo
into the stores. Wu Kong Sword Sect would definitely rise in the future. In order to create a
cooperative relationship with this kind of sect, strength was the base of cooperation.

Here, all the five element materials are here. Pick whichever items you want. Oh, Ill give you
the best price. He Rong smiled. Giving a good price, but not free. Zuo Mo felt that was even
more comfortable.
Then many thanks, Old Brother He! Zuo Mos words were really from his heart.
People who had strength could always more easily receive respect from others.
Zuo Mo went into the materials and started to pick.
His measure was very special. He didnt care about the grade of the material, what he needed
was five elemental power. The Five Colored Pagoda was not a picky eater. Right now, the Five
Colored Pagodas primary goal was to recover its power, not to increase its level. He did not
need to consider high level materials.
Also, in compliance with Zuo Mos usual conduct, he decided to take the price to the extreme
materials that were the cheapest and had the most five element power!
Translator Ramblings: Xiao Zuo meansLittle Zuo. He Rong was the person that Zuo Mo
sold plants to.

Chapter One Hundred and Sixty Three People Dont Do This
Returning to the sect, Zuo Mo was very satisfied.
He had come back with a huge pile of materials. When he thought of He Rongs dumbstruck
expression, he felt great. Almost as though he was robbing He Rong, he had bought out many of
the rarely-used materials.
Three hundred pieces of jingshi was not an large sum, but to buy low-grade materials? It had
great buying power.
Five Colored Berry Leaf, first-grade material, containing rich five elemental power, but due to
the mixture of five elemental power, it was only used at dan formation for only a few kinds of
lingdan. Twenty sprigs to a bundle. Each bundle sold for ten pieces of second-grade jingshi.

Gold-patterned Snake Fragrant Grass, rich in gold element power, often used as an auxiliary
material in tempering flying swords. It was considered a low-end material, due to the fact there
were many substitutes for it. After the Gold-patterned Snake Fragrant Grass was dried, it was
pressed into bricks. One brick weighed two taels, the price was five pieces of second-grade
jingshi.
Rainbow Vine held a mixture of the five elements. The body of the vine was multicolored and
was named for rainbow-like appearance. When added to a fire, it could increase the power of the
fire. Ten catties in a bundle, the price was fifteen pieces of second-grade jingshi.

Piling all these materials he had brought into the yard, Silly Bird flew down from the roof and
rooted around before flying back to the roof in disappointment. There clearly was no snack
that she liked here.
Zuo Mo was too lazy to pay attention to this wastrel that only knew how to eat and laze around.
He summoned the Five Colored Pagoda.
It was lucky that ge had practiced [Vajra Profound Sutra]
Looking at the mountain of material, Zuo Mo took a breath and started [Vajra Profound Sutra].
As, he started to work, he took of his top revealing his golden ribs.
The bundles of Five Colored Berry Grass was moved in groups of ten; the bricks of dried Goldpattern Snake Fragrant Grass went flying like rain; moving the ten catty bundles of Rainbow
Vine was the most exhausting, Zuo Mo had turned into a manual laborer
In the yard, Zuo Mo sweated like rain, singing loudly, Pagoda, you are a cow, what you eat is
grass, what is squeezed from you is milk ,ah ah ah en ah
The Five Colored Pagoda appeared to be drunk as it swayed as it ate the materials.
When the last piece of material was sucked into the pagoda, the Five Colored Pagoda finally laid
down with a thud.
Zuo Mo froze. Not caring that he was half-naked, he bent down and prodded the Five Colored
Pagoda which was on the ground. No response! It shouldnt have a problem from eating too
much, right? He thought hesitantly.

After a while, the Five Colored Pagoda rolled around on the ground twice before swaying as it
stood up. The stone in Zuo Mos heart landed. He laughed heartlessly, Ha, I had thought you
were too full. So you still hadnt had enough!
Maybe it was that it heard the words, the Five Colored Pagoda suddenly shook. Splat, it spat out
something and then dropped to the ground, rolling a few circles before becoming motionless.
Zuo Mo was gleeful. Did it poop out the remnants again? What the little pagoda pooped out was
jingshi!
But when he looked, he was greatly disappointed. This wasnt any remnant, it clearly was half a
bundle of Five Colored Berry Leaf. He couldnt help but look in puzzlement and ask, Lil
Pagoda, is this not tasty?
The Five Colored Pagoda shook, rolling away from Zuo Mo.
On the rooftop, Silly Bird looked in sympathy at the Five Colored Pagoda that was rolling
around. Then she lowered her head to go back to preening her feathers.
What Zuo Mo felt disappointed about was that Lil Pagoda didnt spit out any remnants this time.
His plan of buying low and selling high failed. However, with large amounts of five element
power, the Five Colored Pagoda seemed to have recovered to a large extent, even though the
sheen was not as bright as before. These materials were just low-grade materials. They were
enough in terms of quantity but in quality, it was still not enough.
Zuo Mo was helpless.
From the results of these two experiences, he concluded only high level materials would yield
remnants.
Now, whenever Zuo Mo looked at the Five Colored Pagoda, the Five Colored Pagoda would
timidly shrink back. Zuo Mo said in a regretful tone, Lil Pagoda, if you could poop after eating
all this, how great would it be!
The Five Colored Pagoda shook, continuously making sounds of throwing up.

Back of Wu Kong Mountain.


Five people floated in midair. Under their feet, the valley was completely transformed.
Finally done! Yan Le couldnt help but sigh. The other people were also tired.
Wu Ling Sanren couldnt help but say, Your sect has really spared no expense! Such an
expanse, it is rare to see even in the restricted grounds of those large sects. His expression was
extremely exhausted, but different from the others was that the exhaustion could barely disguise
his excitement.
The jinzhi in front of him was created by five jindan experts working together to destroy five
mountain peaks, clearing out five mountain valleys, and chiseling out nine deep springs. They
had covered more than half of Wu Kong Mountains. If this wasnt considered a great work, then
Sky Moon Jie had no great works.
Weve really bled blood for this boy! Even a person as composed as Pei Yuan Ran felt his heart
was bleeding.
Wu Ling Sanrens payment, countless materials
Almost half of Wu Kong Sword Sects assets had been used up. Yan Le who was in charge of the
monies had a terrible expression, gritting his teeth as he said, The boy can slowly enjoy this.
He turned and then said to Wu Ling Sanren with a slightly suspicious tone. Are you sure he
cannot solve it? The boy is very talented in formations.
Wu Ling Sanren was so furious he almost left. Pei Yuan Ran hurriedly lectured Yan Le. Do not
be so impolite to Sanren!
Yan Le twisted his mouth. Everyone was in jindan, he wasnt afraid of Wu Ling Sanren.
However, lectured by Shixiong, he didnt dare to speak again.
Wu Ling Sanrens anger slightly calmed, a flush crossing his old face as he snorted. Its not this
one praising myself, this great formation was formed with the aid of you four. This one had also
applied all of the knowledge this one ever learned. The future is uncertain, but up until today, it is
truly the greatest masterpiece this one has created. If us five jindan cannot imprison a zhuji, then
we should just kill ourselves.
Yan Le blushed as the other talked. He defended himself, We dont want to imprison him inside,
we just want him to practice the sword

Dont worry! Wu Ling Sanrens eyes rolled. He snorted coldly, This formation has layers of
jinzhi. To break though, there is only one way. That is, to practice the sword essence to the level
of Heart Turn Sword Essence, that is the only way to comprehend the intricacies involved and
find the way out of the formation.
Thats good, thats good. Seeing the two descend into fighting, Pei Yuan Ran hurriedly
smoothed over. Xin Yan and Shi Feng Rong looked on coldly from the side.
Wu Ling Sanren had not finished. Friend Xins sword essence is pure and sharp. This one has
not seen one like it before! However, everyone has to be careful. If one enters the formation and
has not comprehended to Heart Turn Sword Essence, they cannot come out. To stop the boy from
using his knowledge of formations to escape, this one has set up eighteen levels of jinzhi
surrounding the formation. It is as solid as gold! If the four of you try to break the formation
together, the formation would not stop you, but the person inside the formation would not escape
death.
The four of them started to hesitate. If the boy really could not solve the formation, if he
encountered some danger inside, then they could do nothing about it.
Friends, do not worry too much. Inside the formation, this one had especially emptied out some
[Life] areas to allow him to rest. With his knowledge of formations, it should not be difficult to
find these [Life] areas. Even though you cannot enter the formation, but you can observe the
inside the formation. This one has also left behind some small transportation doors so you can
transfer in supplies.
Xin Yan suddenly opened, Ill find him.
Finishing, he disappeared.

Zuo Mo rested lazily on the swing chair, idly soaking in the sun. The time to open the secret
realm had been pushed back again and again. He didnt have much to do. The change in opening
the secret realm had supposedly been at the request of many sect leaders. The help that the
Sword Test Conference had given the young xiuzhe was very large. The first thing many people
had done when they had gone back to their sect was go into seclusion.

Right now, many people still had not come out of seclusion. Asking for the secret realm opening
time to be delayed was natural.
Eldest Shixiong was still in seclusion. Luo Li Shixiong had been hurried into the sword cave.
Thinking bout this, Zuo Mo found it quite strange. Luo Li Shixiong was allowed to go to the
sword cave, but why didnt the sect leaders and the others allow him to enter the sword cave? He
didnt really care if he could go. What he cared about was that these recent days had been very
peaceful, Xin Yan Shibo and the others hadnt bothered him.
Thinking about the good that Xin Yan Shibo had said when he was recovering, Zuo Mo felt
coldness come into his heart. Even if he was under the sun, he could not get rid of the cold. He
had a strong feeling that this matter wouldnt easily conclude.
There definitely was something waiting for him.
Just at this time, he saw Xin Yan descending from the skies.
In an instant, Zuo Mo felt like he dropped into ice, his limbs went cold.
Xin Yan coldly snorted, his hand holding Zuo Mo up. Without another word, he flew into the sky.
Second Shibo flew extremely quickly, the harsh wind making Zuo Mo unable to open his eyes.
Shibo, where are we going? Zuo Mo tried to bear the strong wind and carefully asked.
Cultivate the sword. Xin Yan was expressionless.
Cultivate the sword? Zuo Mos heart rested slightly. Good, good, it wasnt anything strange.
Hm, wasnt this going to the back of the mountain? Was Shibo going to teach him about the
sword in the back regions?
Suddenly, Zuo Mos body froze.
Below him, a gigantic formation appeared in his vision. The formation that he had made in the
Sword Test Conference could only be called a small formation when compared to the formation
in front of him.
Did the sect have such a large formation?
They didnt, he had come to this area many times before!

Zuo Mo saw the sect leader, Yan Le Shibo, Master, and an old Taoist that he did not know.
But why did their eyes seem slightly strangeas they looked at him
Just as Zuo Mo was puzzled, Xin Yan Shibos hands suddenly relaxed.
Ah!
Zuo Mo shrieked. The wind howling in his ears, he was unable to control his body. Panicked, he
hurriedly started the [Vajra Profound Sutra]!
A golden figure fell from the sky and slammed into the ground.
Boom!
The earth shook as dirt was sent flying everywhere. A golden figure hit the dirt directly, leaving
an indent in the shape of a person.
Zuo Mo felt his organs had shifted from the impact. He dazedly opened his eyes and struggled to
get up as he spit up mud.
Lucky that ge had practiced
He hissed in pain. His body felt like it was going to break. Even though his [Vajra Profound
Sutra] had reached the level of Red Lotus Flowing Gold, it still hurt when he dropped from such
a height.
But he was slightly reassured. Since he had eaten dirt, then this matter should pretty much be
concluded, he thought inside.
Hm, where was this? This wasnt right!
In front of him, sword essences roiled about, flowing in layers as dense as a forest, unable to be
avoided!
Zuo Mo wanted to cry.
People dont do this
Translator Ramblings: Dont ever leave your children with Zuo Mo, he will stuff them so full
they will puke. For those that had been waiting for the elders to get their own back, it has started.
An alternate title for the chapter should be You cant do this!.

In this chapter, Zuo Mo calls both Wei Sheng and Luo Li Shixiong. Wei Sheng is unshakable in
his position as Eldest Shixiong (good bye, Qin Cheng) but Luo Li has already mentioned that he
still thinks that he can compete with Zuo Mo for the position of second. However, despite higher
cultivation and longer time spent with the sect, Zuo Mo has beat him twice, and in the eyes of
the public, Zuo Mo is second ranked among the disciples. Zuo Mo hasnt really switched around
yet, but public perspective differs from his view.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Sixty Four


Sword Essence Formation
This chapter has been brought to you by me, and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter One Hundred and Sixty Four Sword Essence Formation
Just as Zuo Mo was gaping in befuddlement, outside of the formation Wu Ling Sanren was
amazingly smug.
This formation is composed with our four sword essences positioned at the cardinal points.
Friend Xin Yans sword essence is the strongest and guards the center. The nine ling springs are
the passages through the entire formation, allowing the sword essence to regenerate itself. The
five sword essences create destruction between themselves. It is impossible to find the one living
change when you have not reached the level of Heart Turn Sword Essence. Even if one is in
jindan, if their sword essence is not high enough, it is impossible. Trying to break through the
formation with brute force is seeking death!
Pei Yuan Ran praised, The formation that Sanren has set up is amazing. To use sword essences
in a formation, this one has never heard of it!
Wu Ling Sanren was very proud inside, but he did not lose his calm, modestly saying, If it
wasnt for the requirements of your sect, this one wouldnt have thought of such a method. He
then sighed. That day when I was a judge, I saw Zuo Mos battle. Truthfully, this one was very
shocked, but Friend Xin Yan is right we sword xiu must practice the sword! But I havent thought
that your sect would spend so much for one disciple. To be from such a sect, Zuo Mo is very
fortunate!
Pei Yuan Ran shook his head. Money and talismans are important, but what is most important
are people. The people are present, so the sect is present. The people are strong, then the sect is
strong. Since he is a disciple of our sect, then this matter is our duty. We only hope that he would
wake and return to the right path as early as possible, as to not waste our efforts.
The other three had stern expressions.

Wu Ling Sanren felt a deep sense of respect for these elders. Sect Leader Pei, do not worry.
This boy is intelligent and certainly will understand your efforts.
Pei Yuan Ran laughed. If Sanren did not help this time, we wouldnt know what to do. This guy
really is a headache!
No matter. After being tempered, he would understand. There are ten thousands paths in the
work, but only cultivating the sword is the true path. One sword breaks all moves. All his tricks
are just like paper in front of sword essences. Wu Ling Sanren said proudly. He dared to say
something like this, not because he had such confidence in his formation, but strong confidence
in these four peoples sword essences.
He had heard rumors about the four elders of Wu Kong Sword Sect: Yan Le was skilled in
management; Shi Feng Rong specialized in dan-making; and sect leader Pei Yuan Ran did not
involve himself in worldly affairs. He had heard the reputation of the Ice Dragon Sword, but
never had personally seen it so he hadnt felt anything. Only during the construction of this
formation did he experience how deep the roots of Wu Kong Sword Sect were. They far
surpassed anyones imagination.
Of the five xiu present , his sword essence was the weakest. This made him feel a sense of
embarrassment. He had rarely seen a sword essence as strong and terrifying as Xin Yans, which
surpassed many of those so-called experts.
Originally, he had been worried the fours sword essences would not be pure enough and would
destabilize the formation. Now, he understood he had underestimated them.
With Xin Yans sword essence, which guarded the center, this big formation was as solid as rock
and was unable to be destroyed. This formation was stronger than any other formation he had
ever made. Even jindan experts would be unable to escape unscathed if they attacked this
formation and were attacked in return by the pure sword essences left by these five xiu .
His only regret was that such a strong formation was to imprison a disciple in just zhuji. This did
not allow him to feel a sense of accomplishment.
However, to be able to use this chance to form a relationship with Wu Kong Sword Sect, he was
naturally very willing. He was full of confidence about Wu Kong Sword Sects future after
seeing these four peoples terrifying power. The elders were strong and cared about nurturing
their disciples, these disciples were also geniuses. Such a sect, he really couldnt think of a
reason it would not prosper.

Pei Yuan Ran saw that everyones faces were extremely tired and smiled, This boy really has
caused great trouble for us usually. Now, let him go enjoy it himself. Lets go, we can rest.
Sanren can get a taste of my ling tea.
Wu Ling Sanren hurriedly agreed.

Zuo Mo was completely ignorant that the elders had left. He didnt dare to move.
He was too familiar with the enormous dragon moving in front of him. He had been sliced by
this thing countless times. Second Shibos sword essence!
Gritting his teeth, Zuo Mo suddenly raised his voice to wail, Master! Disciple was wrong! This
disciple will definitely change, let this disciple out
Master might look cold but she was very concerned about him. If he begged, maybe Masters
heart would soften and let him out.
After shouting until his throat had gone raw, there was no movement from outside the formation.
Bitter water rose in Zuo Mos heart like a flood. His little heart floated in bitterness. Up until
now, he still did not understand what he had done wrong to make the sect leader and the others
so furious.
As he shouted, his feet didnt dare to move. The dragon in front of him freely moved around,
never too far from him. The cold and indifferent eyes would occasionally sweep across his body.
He felt that he was cold from head to toe.
He did not doubt that if he moved the slightest, the dragon claw of this dragon would gently
swipe and he would be torn to pieces, flesh flying and lose his life.
This thing was the true essence!
He wanted to cry as he shuddered.
Only when he truly faced Second Shibos ice dragon did he experience how great the difference
was between Pu Yaos fake sword essence and the real one. Terror, instinctive terror rose from

his heart. No matter how he suppressed it, terror was like a yao weed grass that could not be
stopped, furiously growing through his heart.
After warily standing for an hour, the dragon moved away. But Zuo Mo instantly understood the
look that it gave right before leaving.
Ill come back.
When the dragon disappeared completely, the terrifying pressure also disappeared. The land was
empty as though nothing had happened.
At this time, Zuo Mo lost his nervousness and started to scan the surroundings. He quickly
understood he was in the middle of a formation. Thinking about the astoundingly large formation
he had seen from the air, he shuddered.
F***, did the sect leader and the others want to kill him?
He had just been sighing in amazement at how big the formation was. He hadnt thought that he
would be thrown into the formation by Second Shibo.
He had to admit he underestimated the rage Second Shibo had towards him!
His mind recovering, Zuo Mo thought about how his wailing had not received a response and
instantly understood that the sect leaders and the others truly wanted him to suffer. It wasnt that
he hadnt thought before what punishment Second Shibo and the others would give him. Getting
beaten, house arrest, or special training, he had prepared himself mentally.
But after all though calculations, who would have thought that Second Shibo did something even
more severe!
Even if Zuo Mo didnt understand formations, he would be able to see the extraordinary nature
of the formation, and he did have some knowledge of formations. Just one look and he could
detect the strength of the person who set up the formation was much higher than his.
This kind of difference was not just in one area, but in all areas, including cultivation,
understanding of formations, sword essences, etc etc.
Zuo Mo looked into the surroundings. He was clear that the sect leader and the others definitely
wouldnt take his life, they just wanted him to suffer a bit.
But this formation

Very dangerous! Very very dangerous!


Zuo Mo swallowed. In a few short steps, the shock in his heart increased.
Each step was full of killing intent!
Damn it! Zuo Mo want to swear!
Even the ground was permeated with fine and dense sword essences that disregarded the shoes
on his feet and needled into the soles. It was like he was walking on a board covered with
needles, each step left his feet full of pain. It was not just that. The air in front of him looked
harmless, but if he moved, the disturbance of the air would naturally formed layers of sword
essence around him. These sword essences were like fine icicles, slicing Zuo Mo who was in the
middle!
They couldnt do this
Zuo Mo wailed inside. Just how big of an offence had he made to make Master and the others so
furious?
Staying in his original spot, he could only wait for the dragon to come back, that was too
dangerous! He gritted his teeth and started [Vajra Profound Sutra]. Right now, his [Vajra
Profound Sutra] was at Red Lotus Flowing Gold, hard to wound by normal flying swords.
Lucky that ge had practiced it Zuo Mo rejoiced inside.

Wu Kong Hall, Pei Yuan Ran and the other four idly drank ling tea.
Ha ha, that boy definitely would use [Vajra Profound Sutra]. Yan Le snickered and glanced at
Xin Yan who was drinking without speaking a word. Second Shixiong really thought of
everything, even planning for [Vajra Profound Sutra].
Sword xiu only cultivate the sword. Xin Yan said frigidly. He sipped, and then added, Not the
body.

This boy really is terrible, he only just walks the wrong paths. Shi Feng Rongs face was angry.
Her disciple had made everyone feel a headache, and used up so much wealth, she kept on
feeling angry. Making him cultivate the body was so he could have something to save his life.
Hes great. He just silently practices it to the fourth level. Getting him to learn formations, its so
he can learn more about dan-making, so he has a secondary profession, and wouldnt have
trouble making his living. This little brat just sinks into formations, and doesnt know to
progress, his side job becoming his main profession! His main profession actually went
backwards!
Vent up to this point, she felt very uncomfortable. Its all my fault. Ive been remiss in teaching
him. Thats why he walked onto the wrong path!
Wu Ling Sanren hurriedly comforted. Shi Xianzi is overly blaming yourself. Young people
always are tempted by new things. Thats normal. Which sect doesnt have one or two disciples
like this? As the elders, we can only slowly guide them.
Sanren is right. Shimei, dont be sad. Pei Yuan Ran also comforted.
Yan Le snickered. That boy can just keep suffering. Ive been finding his [Vajra Profound Sutra]
an eyesore for a long time. Red Lotus Flowing Gold, he thinks hes a Dhyana? Even Dhyana lose
when they face us! He needs to understand all his tricks are just garbage.
None of the other four objected to Yan Les words. They all had a matter-of-face expression.
The pride of sword xiu came from thousands of years of holding a ruling position, they were
unshakable.

Zuo Mo didnt think that his actions would have be completely planned for by the elders.
Just as he activated the [Vajra Profound Sutra], the sword essences which had been like icicles
suddenly became sharks that tasted blood and flooded towards him from all the surrounding
areas.
Brring brring brrring !
Woosh woosh woosh!

Different howls of sword essences filled Zuo Mos ears like the earth was breaking, the sky was
changing color!
The sudden change made Zuo Mo freeze!
He dazedly looked at the air that had turned turbulent, looked at the howls created by this sky
full of sword essences, at the sword essences that flooded at him from all around
What what was this
Translator Ramblings: So over on r/noveltranslations, someone said that Wu Kong Sword Sect
was a sect in decline. It would be more accurate to say that Wu Kong Sword Sect was a sect that
had declined after its first years after founding, reached the bottom in the generation before Pei
Yuan Ran and the others, and are on their way back up again. The four elders lived in a onejindan sect which is not very strong compared to other sects. Most of the sects present wealth
and assets (excluding Wu Kong Mountain and the sword cave) most likely was accumulated by
these four over time. I have to say that their master (and Zuo Mos grand master) was both
super lucky and skilled to have taught four outstanding disciples.
The elders and Wu Kong Sword Sect remained low-key until Wei Sheng, and kept its numbers
small so people in Dong Fu did not know it very well. That doesnt mean it is not a strong sect.
Its not wealthy, like Ling Ying Sect, and it does not have a power base and connections like
Dong Fu Hall does. Wu Kong Sword Sects rise is the four jindan, and the three secondgeneration disciples it now has. This is why people think Wu Kong Sword Sect is going to
prosper. Of course, this is all relative to Sky Moon Jie, which is in the backwaters.

Chapter One Hundred and Sixty Five Wu Kong Expansion
After drinking tea, and having the dense ling energy fill them, everyone felt their body become
relaxed and their exhaustion began to disappear.
Pei Yuan Ran said, Its probably time. Lets go and see how the boy is.
Everyone loudly agreed to this suggestion. The five of them travelled together to the back of Wu
Kong Mountain.

In front of the formation, the five took a look, and laughed.


That boy is really slippery, how could he not have found the [Life] area? Yan Le pointed at the
formation, roaring with laughter. Inside the formation, Zuo Mo was in a sorry state, his clothing
was ripped. He had clearly suffered.
Having bled for this, Yan Le felt extremely good. Not just him, even Pei Yuan Ran and the others
felt very good. The four of them were all jindan yet they couldnt do anything against this zhuji
boy. They had accumulated a lot of anger. If they threatened, there was the probably that this boy
would run and join another sect. Temptation? This brat was the wealthiest person in Wu Kong
Mountain.
Looking at this brat in such a sorry state, they felt they hadnt wasted their efforts.
Wu Ling Sanren also laughed, Zuo Mo is very talented in formations. It is not hard for him to
find the [Life] area. He noted and then decided not to involve himself. It was better to leave
early, this was a matter for their sect. He could see that Zuo Mo had limitless potential. If the
other discovered who had created the formation, they might come and create trouble for him. He
wouldnt be able to bear it.
The more he thought, the more he found it likely. Zuo Mo didnt look like a generous person. He
hurriedly said, Since the matter is concluded, this one will bid you all farewell. There are still
some affairs in the sect that this one has to take care of. If this one has free time in the future, this
one will come again.
Pei Yuan Ran and the others naturally tried to keep him, but seeing that Wu Ling Sanren was
being very determined, they did not stop him. As for the payment, they had paid it already. Wu
Ling Sanren bowed with folded hands and quickly vanished into the horizon.
Pei Yuan Ran and the others did not care. The road of cultivation was very long. Coming and
going was very normal.
Shi Feng Rong looked at Zuo Mo who was in a terrible state, and suddenly said, If Zuo Mo
cannot get out, wouldnt he be unable to enter the secret realm?

Pei Yuan Ran did not find it important. The secret realm is a small matter, there are just a few
good treasures. All that is received are material items. With Zuo Mos talent, as long as he is
willing to focus on practicing the sword, those material items arent worth anything. If it comes
down to it, we will compensate him.
Pei Yuan Rans answer made Shi Feng Rong satisfied. At the side, Yan Le twisted his mouth, but
did not speak. He didnt dare to offend Fourth Shimei.
Xin Yan was like a statue, coldly staring at Zuo Mo inside the formation.

Zuo Mo was very terrible at the moment. Not one part of his clothing was whole. He stared with
trepidation at a place not far away. That dragon was coldly and proudly moving by, its gaze
occasionally sweeping across his body.
He hadnt thought the sect leader and the others had even planned for the use of the [Vajra
Profound Sutra].
Even now, when he thought about the terrifying experience he just had, he felt his head prickle,
his body cold. Countless sword essences had charged at him like a crowd of hungry sharks, each
one wanting to rip off a piece of flesh.
His pitiful [Vajra Profound Sutra], even if it had already reached Red Lotus Flowing Gold,, it
was destroyed in an instant.
If it wasnt that his consciousness was outstanding, if he hadnt studied the Kun Lu introductory
formations jade scroll, and that he had deepened his understanding of formations, then he would
have drowned in the countless sword essences.
He had stumbled and crawled to find this little area of safety. As long as he didnt step outside of
this circle that was three zhang in diameter, nothing would happen to him.
This little circle finally allowed Zuo Mo to believe that the sect leader and the others didnt want
to kill him.
However, this great formation was really terrifying! Zuo Mo looked warily at the dragon that
was prancing outside, not daring to move at all.

Outside the formation, Pei Yuan Ran looked and then said, Lets go. The boy wont cry unless
he has one foot in the grave. He can slowly be ground down.
In their eyes, Zuo Mo was greedy and wretched, and his personality was extremely stubborn. He
certainly wouldnt admit defeat so easily. They knew this all too well which was why they had
spared no expense in creating such a big formation. This was their preparation for a long battle.
The four left, without a worry, planning on coming back in a few days.
The formation looked dangerous but in reality, it was very safe. Inside the formation, was Zuo
Mo someone who would let himself be wounded? Outside the formation, he didnt have to worry
about enemies or wild beasts. A formation that even they could not break, in all of Sky Moon Jie,
there definitely would not be more than three people who might be able to break through.
Pei Yuan Ran was even considering if they could change the formation after Zuo Mo came out.
In the future, it could work as the restricted grounds for the sect. With the protection of the sect,
there was no question of safety.

Zuo Mo used his consciousness to sweep through the surrounding space.


He had already decided, if the sect leader came to ask him if he knew he was wrong and if he
would change, he wouldnt hesitate in surrendering. He had to bow to the circumstances!
Sect leader! If you say kill, we definitely wont set a fire! If you said east, we definitely wouldnt
walk west!
Heroes were people that recognized the circumstances, Zuo Mo comforted himself. Yet what he
did not realize was the sect leader and the others overestimated his stubbornness.

Zuo Mo, who had been waiting to surrender for several days, didnt even see the shadow of the
sect leader and the others.
He had to face a problem.
There was no water and food. How could he had predicted that a calamity such as this would
occur? His ring was almost empty. Under the effect of the jinzhi inside the formation, he was not
able to even use [Little Art of Cloud and Rain]. Naturally, he didnt have any water.
It was fine if he didnt have food. But without water, then it was bad.
He licked his dry lips. He could smell the water power in the air. He was certain the big
formation definitely had water sources like springs.
However
The outside was empty, the dragon was not present, but Zuo Mo was not happy. He knew when
he walked out of the [Life] area, he would be surrounded by sword essences.
But he still decided to try. If he didnt act, he would never be able to walk outside of the
formation.
At this time, he finally understood the malicious intentions of the elders. They wanted him to
charge into the formation!
Wasnt it just charging through! Zuo Mo boldened his heart and left the [Life] area.

Outside the sect Pei Yuan Ran and the others released a breath. The had never thought that Zuo
Mo would just stay inside the [Life] area for the last few days and had never come out.
They had originally planned on sending some water and food in. But seeing Zuo Mo retreating
into the [Life] area and not come out, looking as though he was waiting to stand off against them,
they instantly let go of their intentions to send food and water in.
The boy finally came out. Pei Yuan Ran said.

Yan Le nodded. He clearly was relieved. This guy is definitely one of the most wretched
disciples in the sect. I guess that if we didnt cut off his food and water, he probably would just
stay in the [Life] area to wait it out, humph, wait until the formation collapses!
Shi Feng Rong was somewhat unhappy. Third Shixiong, werent you the same when you were
young?
Yan Le choked and instantly became silent.
Xin Yan unblinkingly stared at Zuo Mo inside the formation. Inside, he also was relieved. He had
been afraid as well that Zuo Mo would just sit in passive resistance. He believed that the guy
could definitely do something like that.
However, since Zuo Mo had walked out, they instantly paid attention.
They were very curious how Zuo Mo would respond. This brat might not walk on the right path
but he had an endless bag of tricks that was always surprising.

Walking out of the [Life] grounds, Zuo Mo instantly felt the tearing from the sword essences in
the air, the prickling from the ground. However, he didnt dare use [Vajra Profound Sutra] this
time, only gritted his teeth and bore the pain as he slowly moved in the direction of water.

Outside the formation, Xin Yan suddenly opened. Hes finding water.
The other three understood, a smile coming onto their faces.
When Wu Ling Sanren had been setting up the formation, he had already considered this point. It
was not difficult to find a water source inside the formation, but it was not easy to resupply
himself.

Zuo Mo bore the pain, his consciousness sweeping around to search for a source of water.
He found the slower he moved, the lower the threat the surrounding sword essences posed. So,
with turtle speed, he slowly moved in the direction of water.
A short journey, he used up four whole hours.

Outside the formation, the elders had long lost their patience and left. There were many things
they had to take care of at the moment, and this period of time was extremely important for Wu
Kong Sword Sect.
Wu Kong Sword Sect had shone in the Sword Test Conference, and naturally walked to the front
of the stage. It was not appropriate to remain as low-key as they did before. They needed to
adjust the plan for the entire sect.
Countless eyes were focused on Wu Kong Sword Sect. This period would be the greatest
transformation of Wu Kong Sword Sect in recent times. Reputation, status, they had that. What
they needed to fight for was the benefits that came with it.
Wu Kong Sword Sects rise would certainly affect some sects. The fighting that would occur
would be very harsh.
Pei Yuan Ran and the others were not kind and generous people. Once they finalized their plan,
they moved lightning fast and without any hesitation.
In the time span of several nights, Wu Kong Sword Sect continuously defeated three sects. Even
though it was three small sects, but people were still able to see a great beast slowly opening his
jaws.

As expected, Wu Kong Sword Sect did not stop their expansion. In the next seven days, all the
smaller sects surrounding Wu Kong Sword Sect were merged into Wu Kong Sword Sect.
Pei Yuan Rans conduct was just and authoritative. Xin Yan was invincible in battle. Yan Le was
clever and experienced. Shi Feng Rongs battle strength was not ordinary, and her skill in danmaking was unrivalled in Dong Fu.
The four cooperated well, with great trust between them. Even though many small sects had been
absorbed, but the inner management of Wu Kong Sword Sect did not become disordered.The
sect was disciplined and efficient in its restructuring.
This was a battle! There were negotiations behind the scenes, and naturally fighting in the open.
In one night, Xin Yan defeated seven experts, shaking Sky Moon Jie!
It was that battle which completely established the fame of Ice Dragon Sword, and also greatly
increased the rate the Wu Kong Sword Sect expanded.
Under such a situation, Pei Yuan Ran and the others had no attention to spare for Zuo Mo trapped
inside the formation. They only ordered Li Ying Feng to regularly send in water and food, as
well as jade scrolls. Of course, it was only ever sword scripture jade scrolls.
The pitiful Zuo Mo had encountered a big problem.
Translator Ramblings: Different perspectives are so interesting. Before you guys commented, I
never realized that the elders never explicitly told Zuo Mo what he should do. From Pei Yuan
Ran taking him into the sect, Zuo Mo knew that he needed to make jingshi so he decided to
become a ling plant farmer, to now, where he still wants jingshi, no one really said to him Hey,
Zuo Mo, you need to be a sword xiu, otherwise, people can steal jingshi from you.
Also, this chapter covers a bit of a time skip so please be aware of that because the next chapter
starts at the other side.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Sixty Six


This Land Is Great
This chapter has been brought to you by me, and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter One Hundred and Sixty Six This Land Is Great
Zuo Mo stared at the purple vine that was growing wildly. The purple vines were about the
thickness of a finger, smooth and strong. There were strings of small blue flowers on the vine,

giving the appearance of being both serene and elegant. The vine did not have any supports yet
naturally grew in midair.
Hiss, Zuo Mo sucked in a breath. His body was covered in small wounds. He was full of
wariness as he stared at the purple vine.
He could sense a familiar taste within the vine.
Manifestation!
The purple vine was Masters sword essence!
Damn it. His gaze passed between the vines to look at the spring that was bubbling with water.
He unconsciously licked his dry lips. Even though water and food would be sent into the
formation at regular intervals, the amount was not enough to satisfy his needs.
After wasting so many days, he had pretty much grasped this damned formation. His heart was
very cold. He didnt know what master the sect leader had hired to set up this formation, but his
skills were amazing. Zuo Mo had never thought about constructing a formation with sword
essences! When he realized this, he didnt dare believe his own judgement.
What made him feel even more hopeless was the five sword essences inside the formation were
all sword essence manifestations! Damn it! A formation created by five jindan experts for him to
suffer through, did the sect leader and the others have nothing else to do?
Zuo Mo cursed again and again inside.
He had suffered greatly in the formation ever since he entered. His body was covered in wounds.
With the five sword essence manifestations guarding the formation, just the ripples that were
released were enough to grind him into powder. If he even tried to use the [Vajra Profound
Sutra], the fine sword essences would flood towards him.
Zuo Mo felt very depressed. In the beginning, who was it that wanted him to practice [Vajra
Profound Sutra]?
Each location that had water was guarded by a sword essence. Sect Leaders sword essence was
a mountain peak, high and solid. Zuo Mo felt his heart shudder after taking a look. The heavy
presence made him unable to breathe. He had turned and ran away. He hadnt thought that the
sect leader would also be so powerful. Yan Le Shibos sword essence was a while snow fox. The
slender figure was a great contrast to Shibo. If it wasnt for the slyness in its eyes, he would have
doubted whose sword essence it was. Masters sword essence was a purple vine. Since he had
never seen Master fight, he had been hoping to try his luck.

The result, strings of blue flowers exploded simultaneously each turning to a rain of flowers that
surrounded Zuo Mo. He finally tasted what it was like to be cut by a thousand knives.
The last sword essence was very unfamiliar to him. It was like a Bagua formation, and revolved
relentlessly. It was the first time Zuo Mo saw such a strange sword essence. However, after
interacting with sword essences every day, he managed to grasp some insights. This Bagua
sword essence might look extraordinary, but it was the weakest of the five sword essences.
Yet with Zuo Mos pitifully low cultivation, he couldnt handle it even though it was the weakest
Bagua sword essence.
The few [Life] areas inside the formation were the only places he could rest.
Zuo Mo could only dejectedly retreat back to the [Life] area.
However, he hadnt suffered these days for nothing. Certain areas were not dangerous unless he
entered. This sword essence formation seemed to emphasize imprisonment, not killing.
Otherwise, the five sword essences only needed to move on their own and everything inside the
formation would turn to dust.
At regular intervals, items would be sent into the formation. Water, grains, jingshi, lingdan,
sword scriptures etc etc. Especially sword scriptures. Did the elders want to move the entire
records room into the formation?
At this time, he finally understood that he wouldnt be getting out soon. Not being able to
decipher why the elders were so angry, Zuo Mo was too lazy to think. Since he was here, he
would stay here. After slowly becoming accustomed to it, he was full of curiosity towards the big
formation.
He had never seen such a powerful formation before. To be able to experience it personally,
wasnt it the best way to learn?
Thinking like this, Zuo Mo instantly found the days were not so hard.
Other than the wondrous aspects of the formation itself, the five sword essence manifestations
were also exposed to him without any disguise. There were many things he could study and
copy!
Zuo Mo had comprehended sword essence a long time ago. It had stopped because he had not
spent effort after that. Now that he had examples, if he didnt grasp the chance, he would be too
dumb.

This land was great!


The formation and the sword essences couldnt directly teach him, but Zuo Mo had his own
methods.

He retreated back into the [Life] area. Not far away, the dragon slowly and idly moved its
gigantic body. Zuo Mo was even able to see the ice-like scales on its body. He snickered, raised
his hand, and threw a rock at the ice dragon.
Pew pew pew!
The little rock was instantly ground to dust by the countless fine sword essences in the air. Even
the dust was unable to reach the dragon.
But the dragon clearly became provoked by Zuo Mos challenge. It roared and the entire
formation shook.
Zuo Mo stared at the enraged dragon with terror and excitement. The strong presence made him
tremble uncontrollably but he stared with wide unblinking eyes!
The furious dragon started to rampage inside the formation. Dirt and stones flew into the air. The
sword essences were like the pack of wolves that heard the call of its alpha and exploded forth!
The dragon twisted its enormous body, all the scales on its body turning into countless sharp icy
sword essences that shot into the surroundings!
Too domineering!
Zuo Mo could feel the peerless power inside the formation, could feel each sword essence, no
matter how small it was, was so whole and complete! There was an extremely complex
relationship between each sword essence, so wondrous it was almost unimaginable.
The tide!
Zuo Mo once again saw the tide!

Every time the dragon twisted, the sword essence would move on the body that was constructed
out of countless sword essences. Pure power passed through the layers as though it was a tide!
Too too powerful!
Zuo Mos teeth were chattering. Even though he was in the [Life] area, but in front of absolute
power, he felt he was so minuscule! But he endured it, even if his teeth were chattering, his body
shaking, he used all his power to keep his eyes open and on the dragon, not willing to miss any
detail!
Second Shibos sword essence was the last one that he was facing, because it was the strongest
sword essence out of the five!
Sect Leader Shibos sword essence was as heavy as a mountain, Third Shibos sword essence as
sly as a fox, Masters sword essence as serene as a vine, and that unknown experts sword
essence was unending like a formation.
After experiencing the four sword essences, Zuo Mo had thought he could face Second Shibos
sword essence. But only now, facing it directly did he understand why Second Shibos sword
essence was at the center!
Because it was the strongest, and not just by a bit!
Zuo Mo could not understand how someones sword essence could reach such a terrifying step.
In the five sword essences, Zuo Mo had thought he would be the most familiar with Second
Shibos Ice Dragon sword essence. Now, he knew he was wrong, and terribly wrong! He had
never truly understood the Ice Dragon sword essence, he hadnt even touched the surface.
Even the [Moon Chime Sound Storm] of the [Skyring Moon Chime Formation] was worthless in
front of Second Shibos Ice Dragon sword essence!
His legs were nailed to the ground. As long as he stayed within the [Life] area, the dragon could
not harm him. Even though he knew this, he still felt his courage quickly drain away.
Stand your ground!

In the next ten days, he continued to challenge the dragon every day.
Even Wu Ling Sanren, who had created the formation, would not have thought that Zuo Mo
would use such a shameless tactic. No matter how wondrous the formation was, it was a
formation, and required ling power to sustain itself. Zuo Mo continuously challenging the dragon
and causing the dragon to go into a rage quickly increased the drain of ling power by the
formation.
Of course, if Zuo Mo wanted to use this method to escape, then he would have to wait a few
years.
What Zuo Mo was happy about was that, as the ling power of the great formation was expended,
some places that were hidden were gradually exposed. Now, he was in even less of a rush. He
continuously teased all five sword essences each day. For one, he could have make a better study
and comprehend the sword essence. His other purpose was to run down the ling power of the
formation.
No matter how talented he was, he was just a zhuji. Some of the higher-level transformations
were far out of the range of his understanding and he could not learn it. But some of the lower
and basic changes of the formation were more valuable to him.
The sword essence was the same.
There never was the best, only the most appropriate.
It was like there was no time in the formation. He forgot time. It was like he had landed in a
treasure trove, there were too many treasures waiting for him to to dig up and discover. He
became enchanted.

Zuo Mos upper body was bare. As he looked around, his eyes were clear.
He looked at the dragon nearby. The dragon was just as proud, but the sheen of the dragon was
much dimmer than before. Suddenly, Zuo Mo felt some reluctance. He had spent everyday with
the essence for more than half a year. Even though he knew it was not alive, Zuo Mo still would
miss it.

Today, he decided to organize everything he had learned.


It was time for him to leave the formation!
Right now, the [Life] area that Zuo Mo was in had gone from three zhang to ten zhang. This
space was modified by what Zuo Mo had comprehended about the formation.
Having decided to make an end, Zuo Mo was not in a hurry. He sat down in meditation,
forgetting everything else.
A long time later, he opened his eyes, the light inside a fraction brighter than before.
The Water Drop sword was in front of him as he sunk deeply into thought.
Half a years worth of time, the changes to Wu Kong Sword Sects were enough to make people
gape. The present Wu Kong Sword Sect was the largest sect in Dong Fu. It had absorbed almost
all the sects in Dong Fu. It also squeezed its way into becoming one of the top three large sects in
Sky Moon Jie, clearly one of the new grand sects.
Three months ago, Wei Sheng had come out of seclusion, and Luo Li had returned from the
sword cave. The addition of the two people had increased the offensive power of Wu Kong
Sword Sect. Following Xin Yan, they battled in all directions. Wu Kong Sword Sects power
expanded at astounding speed.
All of Sky Moon Jies eyes were focused on this newly rising sect.
If it was in the past, Wu Kong Sword Sects conduct would have caused great resistance. Many
other sects would have interfered. However, everyone was only watching, and no one was
interfering because of one piece of news.
The news that Bloody Sky Metropolis Jie had collapsed seemed to have grown wings as it
passed through all of Sky Moon Jie.
Some small sects merged into Wu Kong Sword Sect of their own volition. It was much cooler
under a large tree!
No matter what, Wu Kong Sword Sect had four jindan experts!
Xin Yan had taken Wei Sheng and Luo Li to fight outside. Yan Le was continuously travelling to
the other sects, spreading Wu Kong Sword Sects respects and desire for friendly relations. In
charge of the whole plan was Pei Yuan Ran, who was terribly busy. Even Shi Feng Rong had to
come out of the dan room to help Pei Yuan Ran.

Just at this time, light streamed up at the back of Wu Kong Mountain!


Translator Ramblings: Yes, a lot of you were right. Would Zuo Mo ever docilely follow the path
left for him? On the other hand, it isnt his fault. Who was the one that trapped him with a
formation? Like yes, sword essences, but sword essences formation! Really, wasting the energy
of the formation is much easier to do than having to comprehend sword essence to a higher level
(The elders should have asked for a warranty from Wu Ling Sanren, heart turn sword
essence or fifty percent back!)
Wu Kong Sword Sect is now big, and getting bigger. Wei Sheng and Luo Li are the poster
children for Wu Kong Sword Sect.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Sixty Seven


The Places Are The Same, The People Are Not
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and Brian.
Chapter One Hundred and Sixty Seven The Places Are The Same, The People Are Not
While walking along the path, he didnt see any people along the way. It wasnt until he had
reached the mouth of the path that he saw four other disciples .
However
Zuo Mo didnt recognize any of them. What shocked him even more was all four of the disciples
were in zhuji, and one of them had an even deeper in cultivation than hedid. Who were these
people? Why had they come to the back of the mountain of his sect?
Zuo Mo was on his guard.
When the four disciples saw Zuo Mo, they first paused and then bowed simultaneously, calling
out, Greetings to Zuo Shixiong!
Zuo Shixiong? Had the sect taken in new disciples recently? Zuo Mo was puzzled but asked
without showing a hint of confusion, Everyone looks unfamiliar. Why did you all enter Wu
Kong Sword Sect?
The person with the deepest cultivation among the four stepped forward and said respectfully,
We used to be Wei Sword Sect disciples. Two months ago, we formally entered the sect and
have received orders from the sect leader to guard the back mountain.

Zuo Mos puzzlement increased upon hearing this. He asked curiously, If you were Wei Sword
Sect disciples, then why would you consider entering our sect?
The four exchanged looks and smiled. The leader explained. Shixiong was in seclusion and may
not know the dramatic changes within the sect. Not just Wei Sword Sect, but almost half of the
sects around Dong Fu have merged into our sect.
Zuo Mo gaped.
The four saw Zuo Mo was blanking but didnt dare disturb him. They might all have nearly the
same level of cultivation, but the difference in status was enormous. The sect leader wasnt
known to be someone who was nepotistic, but it was unavoidable that the status of the original
Wu Kong Sword Sect disciples would rise with their expansion. Even more, Zuo Mo wasnt just
any Wu Kong Sword Sect disciple; he was one of the core disciples.
According to the other original Wu Kong Sword Sect disciples, Zuo Mos position was even
above Luo Li Shixiong. They didnt dare to offend him. At the Sword Test Conference, Zuo Mo
had become very famous. Everyone remembered his trademark zombie face. The four of them
had recognized him with nothing more than a glance.
Only now did they realize that the back of the mountain was Zuo Mos place of seclusion. From
when they had been ordered to guard this place, they had been curious what was so special about
the back of the mountain that the sect leader would send four people to guard it. At regular
intervals, Eldest Shijie Li Ying Feng would come, but still nothing was ever mentioned.
As they stopped speaking, countless sword energies flew in from all over. At the front was Sect
Leader Pei Yuan Ran and Shi Feng Rong.
The light of Zuo Mo coming out of the formation had alarmed all of Wu Kong Mountain.
When Pei Yuan Ran saw Zuo Mo, his brows imperceptibly creased but resumed normal. At his
side, Shi Feng Rong had a happy expression.
When the four people guarding the back mountain saw Pei Yuan Ran and Shi Feng Rong, they
were shocked and hurriedly bowed. The four of them were once again reconsidering the
importance of Zuo Mo to the elders.
You finally came out of seclusion. Not bad. Pei Yuan Ran warmly said, Your Master has been
impatient.
Its good that you came out! Shi Feng Rong was extremely fond of this disciple that was full of
talent but also a cause for headache. The rims of her eyes turned red.

Zuo Mos nose instantly felt sore. He was very moved. He properly bowed, Master!

After talking for a while with Zuo Mo, the sect leader left. There were too many things he had to
do. Shi Feng Rong accompanied Zuo Mo back to his Little West Wind Yard.
Just as they reached the mouth of the valley, a ball of white shadow slammed into Zuo Mo.
Caught unaware, Zuo Mo was thrown to the ground. Silly Bird! Silly Bird nudged and snuggled
with her head. Zuo Mo scolded, You silly bird! But inside, his heart was warmed.
The Little West Wind Yard did not seem different than before. There should have been people
who came to clean.
Having perceived Zuo Mos befuddlement, Shi Feng Rong said with a slight smile, At the
beginning, Xiao Guo came to clean every day. After, Xiao Guo was sent to Sky Sound City, so
she sent a few outer sect disciples to clean.
Thinking about the timid apple-face, Zuo Mo felt a slight sense of loss. He asked, How is Xiao
Guos situation?
Shi Feng Rong was clearly very satisfied with her other disciple. Xiao Guos talents might not
be as high as you guys, but she is extremely hard-working. Adding on that the sect has expanded
quickly this half year and has many more resources, she has leveled up quickly. Shes not far
from ningmai. The sect leader felt she needed to gain experience so she was sent to manage Sky
Moon City.
Eldest Shixiong? Luo Li Shixiong? Zuo Mo couldnt help but ask.
Shi Feng Rong said, Your Eldest Shixiong and Luo Li Shixiong originally started out with your
Second Shibo. Afterwards, to increase speed, they all led some of the other disciples and split up.
Its a pity that we didnt know when you would come out of the formation, otherwise Li Ying
Feng definitely would have waited a few more days before leaving. Your Yan Le Shibo needs
people so he also called your Li Ying Feng Shijie over.
Zuo Mos heart felt even more hollow. Who could have thought that everything had changed
after staying in the formation for half a year.

Weve expanded this much? Zuo Mo couldnt help but ask, The other sects have not
interfered?
Its not just us that is expanding. This half year, everyone has been expanding. Worry came
onto Shi Feng Rongs face. The situation in Bloody Sky Metropolis Jie is becoming worse.
Everyone is worried. In these troubling times, everyone that has the power to expand will
expand. Only by consolidating our strength can there be some hope for survival. Sky Moon Jie is
not far away from Bloody Sky Metropolis Jie. Everyone is panicking. During such dangerous
times, naturally it requires that special measures be used. We cannot be kind and generous. The
sect leader is hoping that we can finish organizing before the bad news comes.
The situation is this bad? Zuo Mo was very shocked.
En. The worry on Shi Feng Rongs face became even heavier. She hesitated but still spoke.
Originally, since you came out of the formation, you should rest a while. But the situation is
serious so there are some things that I have to say to you. Do not slack off now. The sect is not
like it was in the past. We have seven jindan, about thirty ningmai, and more than two hundred
zhuji disciples right now.
Zuo Mo seemed to know what Master wanted to say, but for some unknown reason, he was very
calm.
Our sect has expanded too quickly. Even though it is out of helplessness, but there are many
weaknesses. The sect is not as harmonious as it was before. Speaking of that, she couldnt help
but sigh. You have to work hard, and enter ningmai as early as possible!
This disciple understands. Zuo Mo knew that Master was looking out for him.
Shi Feng Rong said a few more things before leaving.

The sky was dark. Zuo Mo sat on the rooftop, a sound tablet by his side. The noise of the sound
tablet was the same. Silly Bird was at the side. She seemed to feel Zuo Mos mood and didnt
make noise.
After entering meditation from before, Pu Yao still hadnt moved.

Luckily, there was no change in the sea of flames, no change in the gravestone, and no change in
Pu Yao sitting on the gravestone.
Pu Yao was meditating, Eldest Shixiong, Luo Li Shixiong, Xiao Guo, and the others were not
here.
Sitting on the rooftop, he looked at the sky. The light of flying swords were multiple times more
frequent than before, extremely busy. Yet all this prosperity made Zuo Mo feel this place was
now very unfamiliar and very cold.
Suddenly, something pulled the corner of his clothing. Turning around, he found it was Silly
Bird.
What? Silly Bird!
Silly Bird flapped down the roof. Hm, Zuo Mos eyes landed where Silly Bird was standing.
Wasnt that the entrance to the rock room?
Zuo Mo had always carefully concealed the entrance to the rock room. He had especially set up
illusory formations around it. No one had found it. Zuo Mo suddenly felt interested and
burrowed into the room.
Entering, a damp and cold air rushed out.
Sweeping the stone room, Zuo Mo suddenly had a joyful expression.
Hm!
Black gold worm!
The black gold wom also found Zuo Mo, turning into a streak of black light to land on Zuo Mos
shoulder. Seeing this little guy, Zuo Mos mood lifted as though he was meeting an old friend. He
finally remembered that the black gold worm liked to stay on the ling vein inside the stone room.
He had long forgotten about it.
Putting the black gold worm on his palm and inspecting it, Zuo Mo felt even happier. Compared
to before, the black gold worm was of a higher grade and more intelligent.
What had this guy eaten?

When his eyes landed on the pock-marked ling vein, he understood. It was as he had expected.
When he approached the ling vein, he found he could not detect any ling energy. There was a
small yet extremely deep hole in the ground. When Zuo Mo tested with his consciousness, he
found it was at least several dozen zhang deep. It definitely was due to the black gold worm. The
dan that had been nurturing by the ling spring probably also landed in this little guys stomach.
I really didnt see that you really have some skill! Zuo Mo smiled at the black gold worm.
Taking the black gold worm out of the stone room, Zuo Mos mood was much better.

Wu Kong Hall
Pei Yuan Ran and Shi Feng Rong were discussing matters.
Pei Yuan Ran smiled and said, I just received a flying sword message from Third Shidi. Good
news, Heart Lake Sword Sect has agreed to give the Desolate Wood Reef to us.
Shi Feng Rong also showed a sliver of joy. If thats the case, thats great! The Desolate Wood
Reef is right beside the jie river to Little Mountain Jie. We now have another escape route, but
what did Heart Lake Sword Sect want in return?
They wanted Kui City. I agreed. Kui City isnt of much use to us. To exchange for Desolate
Wood Reef, its profitable. Pei Yuan Ran said decisively.
Shi Feng Rong nodded in agreement.
Im planning to let Zuo Mo go to the Desolate Wood Reef, Pei Yuan Ran suddenly said.
Why? Shi Feng Rong suddenly stood up, her face angry. Zuo Mo just came out of the
formation, and you are sending him to such wilderness. I understand clearly just how barren the
Desolate Wood Reef is. Weve been there before, and I know it. I dont agree!
Pei Yuan Ran rubbed his brow in helplessness, his other hand motioning to Shi Feng Rong.
Dont be so impatient. Wait for me to finish.
Shi Feng Rong snorted coldly, not speaking.

Pei Yuan Ran really had no methods of dealing with his shimei. Desolate Wood Reef might be
very poor, but Shimei also knows how important it is to us. Otherwise, why would we have
needed Third Shidi to personally go to Heart Lake Sword Sect? This kind of important location, I
wouldnt feel safe if it wasnt on our peoples hands. Wei Sheng and the others have their duties.
Tell me, who can I send?
Pei Yuan Ran spread his hands, and asked Shi Feng Rong.
Shi Feng Rong sneered. Dont use these righteous excuses. Isnt it just that you saw that Zuo
Mo isnt in ningmai and his sword essence hasnt reached Heart Turn Sword Essence? This
matter, I definitely wont agree!
Pei Yuan Ran grimaced. Ah, what do you want me to say? Keeping Zuo Mo in the sect, would
that be good for him? You also know what the situation is like inside the sect! Do we have the
time to protect him? Do you have it? No! I dont either! Wei Sheng and the others are not here,
no one can help him, is that really so good for him?
Seeing Shi Feng Rongs face relax, he continued patiently, Desolate Wood Reef might be out of
the way and poor, but it is very safe. It is behind us, therefore it will be on our path for retreat.
Zuo Mo going there, he might suffer, but his life will not be in danger. If the situation is really
bad and we need to retreat, we will definitely go through Desolate Wood Reef. With our current
circumstances, other than ensuring his survival, what more do you want?
Shi Feng Rong didnt say anything. She knew that Sect Leader Shixiong was right.
After struggling for a while, she raised her head, and gritted her teeth, On the matter of
resources, we cant short-change him.
Alright. Pei Yuan Ran answered easily.
Translator Ramblings: Some of you were very accurate in your predictions back during the
Sword Test Conference arc. Zuo Mo is being temporarily relocated.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Sixty Eight


Desolate Wood Reef
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, Brian, and cactuar0.
Chapter One Hundred and Sixty Eight Desolate Wood Reef
Shixiong, Desolate Wood Reef is just up ahead, A shidi said excitedly as he pointed forwards.

Zuo Mo nodded. He gazed into the distance and a lonely island had appeared in the distance.
Everyone was slightly excited. After flying continuously for two months, everyone sighed a
breath of relief as they quickly neared their destination.
Seeing the Desolate Wood Reef, Zuo Mo finally understood why the sect had been so interested
in such an out-of-the-way place. Desolate Wood Reef was positioned in a deep expanse of water,
the edge of the jie river. If one wanted to pass into Little Mountain Jie, they had to pass through
this location. The Endless Ocean was borderless and required long flights. Flying to this place
was the limit of endurance for most. Because of this, the Desolate Wood Reefs location was
strategically important. It was necessary to rest at this area and regain strength in preparation for
passing through the jie river.
If it wasnt for the fact that Heart Lake Sword Sect was at the opposite end of Sky Moon Jie and
their sect had several jie rivers, they never would have let go of such an important location as the
Desolate Wood Reef. Even so, the sect had paid a great price.
But this place really was desolate.
As they flew closer and the island came into view, Zuo Mo couldnt help but sigh.
He didnt have any anger towards the sect for sending him to the Desolate Wood Reef; he was
actually very happy. The state of the sect was not harmonious, and all the disciples that he was
familiar with were no longer present. Such timing had made it wiser to leave. Desolate Wood
Reef was far away from the sect so any conflict inside the sect wouldnt reach this place. He was
happy to be so free.
Just at this time, several xiuzhe flew up out of the island.
Are you the shixiong from Wu Kong Sword Sect? shouted one of them.
Yes! Zuo Mo bowed. He was preparing to take out the sect token, when the other person
smiled and waved his hand. Zuo Shixiong coming personally, I dont need to see the token.
Shixiong knows me? Zuo Mo was slightly surprised.
The other smiled. The person said, The recording jade scrolls of the battle between Brother Zuo
and Chao An may be rare, but this one is lucky enough to possess one of them. I recognized
Brother Zuo from the recording.
Zuo Mo finally understood, He humbly bowed with folded hands, Shixiong is too kind.

I thought that you guys would arrive soon. Weve already cleaned everything up. From today
on, the Desolate Wood Reef will be under Brother Zuos care. This jade scroll contains some of
what we have discovered about this island over the years. I hope it can help Brother Zuo.
Goodbye. The other bowed with folded hands in salute to Zuo Mo and then left. He didnt seem
to want to spend another moment on the island. The other people also bowed and then left.
The exchange had been so fast that it was surprising to Zuo Mo.
The people who had accompanied him here felt they had been given much face. Even the
disciples of Heart Lake Sword Sect knew the name of Zuo Shixiong. They felt honored to be
connected. The Wu Kong Sword Sect had just expanded, and compared to those older sects,
there was still a gap in the attitudes of the disciples.
Lets head down. Zuo Mo looked and urged Silly Bird to land.
The other people followed tightly after him.
The amount of investment that Heart Lake Sword Sect had put into the Desolate Wood Reef had
been very limited. Other than a few stone buildings on the island, there was nothing. The shidi
that came with Zuo Mo did not say anything, but their faces had become much dimmer. They
found the place was much more isolated than they had originally imagined.
Zuo Mo did not care. Stepping on to the Desolate Wood Reef, he found the island was better than
he had thought.
We are going to make a home here. Zuo Mo glanced at them and said calmly, Everyone first
rest for a few days before starting.
After flying for more than two months, even Silly Bird was slightly less energetic. The steeds of
the other shidi were even worse off. Zuo Mo took out a bottle of lingdan. This was the Energy
Dan that he had prepared previously. The grade was not very high, just second-grade. But since it
was easy to make and the cost was low, he had made an entire batch. Silly Bird liked to eat it and
would often munch on them as if they were beans. They were pretty effective at recovering its
energy.
As expected, after eating seven or eight, Silly Bird resumed her usual boastful and proud attitude.
Her neck was arched high, her upper body unmoving, and her two long, dainty bird legs
elegantly stepping out on the beach.
The shidi looked enviously looked at Silly Bird. Even someone blind could see handsomeness of
Silly Bird.

They copied Zuo Mo, taking out Energy Dan to feed to their steeds. But they were still quite
reluctant, the most they gave was two pills. Before departure, Zuo Mo had given each person a
bottle with about ten pills in each.
In this time that the prices of materials were rising, the bottle of Energy Dan was not cheap. They
found that following Zuo Shixiong didnt seem to be so bad, at least it wouldnt be unprofitable.
Even more, Zuo Shixiong was a core disciple.
Those whom Zuo Mo had picked this time were all disciples from minor sects that hadnt been in
the sect for more than one month. They had just joined and had not been pulled into the factions
within the sect. As those those disciples that had some fame, he didnt take any of them.
Ningmai disciples, which ones would obey him?
The people he had picked were all in zhuji with foundations as production xiuzhe.

After resting for two days, everyone had basically recovered.


Zuo Mo called everyone over.
Starting from today, for a very long period of time, we will be staying at this place where even
the birds wont shit. Zuo Mos language was coarse, but everyone felt a deep empathy with his
words.
However, because this place is isolated, no one will disturb us here. It can be a place of peace.
Right now, the sect is a mess, and even I find it troublesome. For you, it would be a dream to
think you could have avoided it!
All of us here are production xiu, so think about the sect. Is there a place that will allow you to
peacefully produce? This place might be isolated, but there is no conflict. To us, it is a very good
place! Desolate? We can change it ourselves! Ill state the rules first. On the Desolate Wood
Reef, whoever creates ling fields will get to plant in them. Whoever plants will get what they
planted. I wont take a portion, the sect will not take anything! Also, the sect benefits that you are
due will not change.

Really? There was excitement on some peoples faces. Originally, they had felt this place was
isolated and had been very unwilling. Hearing Zuo Mo say so, they became excited. They were
all production xiu, and none among them were interested in fighting and killing. It might be hard
to create ling fields, but if they made them, what they planted belonged to them! The sect would
not take a portion.
It had to be said that the portion the sect usually took in rent for ling fields was extremely high.
Zuo Mo shrugged his shoulders. As long as I am here there will not be a problem. But if the sect
switches people then I cant do a thing.
The people believed Zuo Mo even more when he said that. At least Zuo Shixiong was not
overexaggerating. Poor land? It was only a matter of effort for xiuzhe. Production xiu were
hardworking and hardy.
Seeing everyone was becoming motivated, Zuo Mo decided to keep eating while the fire was
hot.
Time is jingshi! Everyone, you dont want to waste jingshi! I have a plan here
Zuo Mo knew that time was short. There was not a lot of time left for him.
In the past, Desolate Wood Reef was neglected, but as the situation worsened, the position of the
Desolate Wood Reef would quickly become essential. Relatively speaking, Little Mountain Jie
was even more isolated. It only had two jie rivers, even less than Sky Moon Jie.
The situations was worsening and the amount of xiuzhe that would pass through Desolate Wood
Reef would increase greatly.
Having personally made the trip, Zuo Mo felt that the position of the Desolate Wood Reef was
even better geographically. Two months of travelling, it took almost one month of flying over the
Endless Ocean. Supposedly, there were vicious and dangerous water beasts underwater so few
people would chose to travel on the water.
Zuo Mo could not imagine just how idiotic the people of Heart Lake Sword Sect were. Heavens,
possessing such a good place yet not using it!
In reality, his thinking had gone askew. Little Mountain Jie only had a jie river towards Sky
Moon Jie and one towards Sky Water Jie. Sky Moon Jie was not as prosperous as Sky Water Jie
so there was rarely any people that passed through to Little Mountain Jie. The Desolate Wood
Reef was too far away from Heart Lake Sword Sect. It was only a stop, so naturally, they did not
try to manage it with any significant effort.

Zuo Mo had his own thoughts. Even though Little Mountain Jie was more isolated, it was also
further away from Bloody Sky Metropolis Jie. In other words, if the current situation really
worsened retreating through Little Mountain Jie then onwards to Sky Water Jie was not a bad
choice.
That was his plan.
He estimated that after some more time, there would continuously be people going through the
jie river to Little Mountain Jie.
It wasnt so easy to travel through a jie river. The shortest amount of time it would take was
several months, longer trips could possibly take years. The Desolate Wood Reef was the only
supply point before entering the jie river. That was an opportunity.
Want to resupply? Alright! Hee hee, passage fee accommodation fee resupplying fee
birds will be plucked clean
He had decided. Even if it was a mosquito passing by, he was going to squeeze out three drops of
blood!
In any case, the sect in the short term definitely had no attention to spare on him. Looking
objectively from outside, he finally understood. The sect might look strong now, but before the
sect leader could assimilate the newly merged factions, the sect would only remain superficially
strong . In reality, it was weak internally. The sect leader definitely could see it, but was yet to be
seen if there was enough time for him to do anything about it.
That was up to the Heavens!
Zuo Mo shook his head and threw those nonsense thoughts to the back of his mind. A problem
even the sect leader couldnt solve, it wasnt necessary for him to waste his thoughts on it. He
decided to manage his own little domain.
The Desolate Wood Reef was a treasure. Thinking of being able to sit and receive jingshi was
great, but this all required that he had enough strength to support it.
This was what he was directing everyone to do now.
Each person had been given a jade scroll from Zuo Shixiong with the jobs assigned to them.
There were a variety of jobs that were very weird. Ling plant farmers were requested to plant
certain ling grasses and herbs at certain areas on the island. The animal keepers were to put some

of the worms and beasts they raised in certain locations. Zuo Mo had even drawn out the areas
they needed to raise them.
The most common task was to dig holes and canals. Almost everyone felt it hard to understand.
The humidity on the Desolate Wood Reef was very rich. The effect of water element spells like
[Little Art Of Cloud And Rain] were magnified. They didnt really need to dig any waterways.
Also, the canals that Zuo Shixiong had requested them to dig crisscrossed the entire island, all of
them connected to each other.
What did Zuo Shixiong want to do?
After a while, some of the more sensitive xiuzhe discovered that Zuo Shixiong had not appeared
for two days.
Where had Zuo Shixiong gone?
Translator Ramblings: Zuo Mo knows what course of action is good for him and how to get rich.
Geographically, Sky Moon Jie has several routes to different places, and Desolate Wood Reef is
just one of them. Wu Kong Sword Sect did not have a jie river, so they themselves did not have
their own path of retreat, and traded for Desolate Wood Reef to amend that weakness.

Wealth Coming From the Sky

Chapter One Hundred and Sixty Nine Wealth Coming From The Sky
Zuo Mo followed closely behind the black gold worm. He held the Water Drop sword, his eyes
continuously sweeping the surroundings with caution.
The armoured black worm ran very quickly. Zuo Mo was gleeful as he followed.
If Lil Black was running so cheerfully, then the island definitely had ling veins or some great
treasure. He had originally assumed that the Desolate Wood Reef was a barren island. Looking at
it now, it seemed to hold some surprises.
The place they had arrived at was a dense forest, and in the middle, there was a lake filled with
black-coloured water. Lil Black seemed to be extremely afraid of the black water lake and
rapidly passed it by. Zuo Mo examined the black water lake in slight surprise. The lake was not

very large, about ten mu or so. The water of the pond was as black as ink. It was a dead place, no
grass growing beside it and contained only large patches of pale white rock.
Corrupted land!
For some reason, these two words naturally floated to the top of Zuo Mos mind. The black water
lake looked like it was dead. There were no animal tracks along the shores. It seemed to exude
unluckiness. He remembered the jade scroll that the Heart Lake Sword Sect disciple had given
him mentioned this lake. The black water lake was very dangerous, and it was recommended to
stay away.
He didnt have time to study the lake right now. He sped up to keep in step with Lil Black.
Among the woods, Lil Black was like a gust of wind, only a black shadow could be seen. If Zuo
Mo did not have a mental connection with Lil Black, he would have lost track of it a long time
ago.
Detecting that Lil Blacks speed had increased a fraction, Zuo Mo hurriedly sped up as well.
Lil Black suddenly crept inside a crack in a nearby clearing. Zuo Mo grimaced when he saw this
two-finger wide crack. Yet his Water Drop sword in his hand did not hesitate, turning into a
stream of light and twisting rapidly in the air as a blue shadow before it suddenly drilled
downward!
Boom!
Broken rock scattered and a hole wide enough to allow Zuo Mo to enter appeared in front of
him.
Zuo Mo waved his hand, and the Water Drop sword flew back into his hand. Bending down, he
entered the hole and the tunnel widened in front of him. This place was a natural cave. Not far
away, the black gold worm was waiting for Zuo Mo. Seeing Zuo Mo, it made a sound, turned
and ran. Zuo Mo refocused and hurriedly followed.
The darkness did not affect Lil Black at all and Zuo Mos consciousness was strong enough to
allow everything to be perceived by his mind.
Advancing inside the tunnel, Zuo Mo was able to feel that he was continuously moving deeper
underground. Along the way, his flying sword had been used to break open quite a few
blockages. Up until now, he hadnt found any traces of other people. This made him even more
excited.

After walking for more than an hour, when he walked by another corner, Zuo Mo was stunned by
scene in front of him.
Large swathes of completely red lava flowed, slowly bubbling. His vision was completely filled
with its red glow. The cavern was like a world of crimson, changing and twisting with each wave
of heat. The air was stained with the smell of sulfur.
The lake of boiling lava was about three mu in size, rocks from the surrounding areas were
constantly falling and disappearing into it. But after a while, the lava at the borders would cool,
forming rock again and mending the holes.
Hmm? His gaze landed on the black gold worm. At some unknown time, Lil Black had crawled
on top of a red coloured rock and started to nibble.
Zuo Mos pupils suddenly shrunk and he was overjoyed.
Crimson Fire Rock!
He couldnt stop himself from approaching and picking up a red-coloured rock from the ground.
The volcanic red rock was not jade yet similar to jade. It was a very strong and pure shade of red,
hot to the touch like scorching hot metal. If Zuo Mo hadnt wrapped ling power around his hand,
his hand would have been cooked to the bone.
The rock contained extremely rich fire element power!
Fourth-grade Crimson Fire Rock!
At this time, he wanted to laugh. Who wouldve thought that this isolated island would have such
a treasure! A circle of Crimson Red Rock grew around the rim of the lava lake.
All this Crimson Fire Rock alone was enough to make his trip to the Desolate Wood Reef worth
it!
Without another word, he started to collect the Crimson Fire rock, not leaving even one piece.
The Crimson Fire rock was arranged in a particular pattern. All of them grew in the area closest
to the lava, forming a belt around the lava lake. These Crimson Fire rocks had been tempered

over countless months and years, and the impurities inside had been melted away so they were
very pure.
In the sixty or so pieces of Crimson Fire rock, most were third-grade. The number of fourthgrade Crimson Fire rock reached six pieces.
This was an astounding amount of wealth!
Zuo Mo was very satisfied. He was dizzy from receiving such a windfall of wealth. To reward
Lil Black, he even took out a piece of fourth-grade Crimson Fire rock for it to chew on.
Lil Black instantly abandoned the third-grade Crimson Fire rock that he had half eaten and leapt
towards the fourth-grade Crimson Fire rock as though its butt was on fire. This piece of Crimson
Fire rock was not big, just slightly larger than his thumb. Lil Black ate it like it was a cracker,
crunch crunch. A fourth-grade Crimson Fire rock was gone just like that.
Finished eating, Lil Black suddenly became bright red all over like it was being heated, lying
there motionlessly.
Zuo Mo was alarmed. The connection between him and Lil Black was broken!
He carefully held Lil Black on his hand. Lil Black seemed like a piece of Crimson Fire rock at
this moment, its temperature abnormally high. He carefully observed for a while using his
consciousness. Finally, after making sure that the black gold worm hadnt died, he instantly
sighed in relief. After staying in the formation for half a year, Silly Bird and Lil Black were not
just steed and ling worm to Zuo Mo, but more like his friends.
Zuo Mo guessed that Lil Black had consumed too much fire element power today, causing
indigestion.
You glutton! He muttered as he put Lil Black into his ring.
After cleaning up the Crimson Fire rock, Zuo Mo finally calmed down. He reassessed this
underground lava lake. Even standing on the shore, he could feel the rich fire element power.
This place was a treasure!
Zuo Mo had already started to ponder how he could use the lava lake.
His consciousness made a few rounds around the lake and did not find anything strange.

He had originally intended to find ling veins and hadnt expected an earth fire lava lake. This
was outside of his plans. However, even if it was unexpected, this lava lake was still of great use.
Zuo Mo stood at his spot, thinking for a moment before starting to act.
All kinds of materials appeared on his hands. The stores of the sect had been opened for his trip
to the Desolate Wood Reef. He naturally wasnt polite, and swept through until Master couldnt
bare it anymore. Compared to before, the resources were on completely different levels. There
were all kinds of high level materials in the stores that dazzled Zuo Mos eyes.
Zuo Mo might be lazy in general, but he would never slack off on anything related to his life.
A flip of the hand, and a two-handled hornless dragon copper cauldron appeared. The hornless
dragon pattern on the cauldron was a faint red, its coiled body carved to appear like flames.
Zuo Mo gently threw it and the copper cauldron appeared steadily at a place on the shore.
He flipped his hand again. It was another copper cauldron exactly the same as the last one.
Another toss, the cauldron was planted at another spot.
In one go, Zuo Mo had tossed out seven two-handled hornless dragon copper cauldrons which all
landed at places equi-distant to the lava lake.
The seven two-handled hornless dragon copper cauldrons were fine items in the third-grade.
When Zuo Mo had taken all seven while shopping at the sect stores, the face of the disciple incharge turned green instantly.
Zuo Mos eyes became serious. His hands blooming, he started to walk along the lake, talismans
and materials flying from his hands.

Two hours later, he wiped the sweat off his forehead. A spectacular display of all kinds of
materials were placed along the edges of the lava lake!
He released a breath, his hands moving like lightning. He activated spells that created streams of
light which entered the materials.

The entire process continued for six whole hours. When the last spell was finished, it was like
Zuo Mo had lost all energy. He sat down on his butt, his entire body soaked in sweat.
He forced down the deathly exhaustion in his body, folded his legs and quickly entered
meditation.
A few hours later, he opened his eyes, fully recovered.
It can only be like this now. Seeing the formation he had just finished, he wasnt very satisfied.
The lava lake contained extremely rich fire element energy and a thread of earth fire. It was a
wonderful natural cauldron. No matter if it was dan-making, or forging, it was a necessity so he
did not spare the expense in using the seven third-grade two-handle hornless dragon copper
cauldrons to set up a four-turn formation!
The fire element power reached an astounding height. The energy alone would be enough to
accomplish half the work whether it was used for dan-making or forging!
The formation would naturally move on its own. The seven copper cauldrons were like seven
whirlpools, furiously absorbing the fire element power from the lava lake. After four turns, it
turned to a thread of fire that flew into the air above the lava lake. When the seven threads of fire
intersected in the air, a serene blue flame bloomed in the air.
Zuo Mo finally had a satisfied expression. The formation was not perfect, but the flame was
already very good.
He took out a thin copper hoop from the ring which was covered in all kinds of seals.
Raising his hand, he threw the copper hoop into the flame.
The flame suddenly grew, enveloping the copper ring. The copper ring was abnormally silent
inside the fire.
Zuo Mo put around seven layers of jinzhi around the shores of the lava lake before he stopped.
He looked at the copper ring suspended in the flame. The original yellow-red flame now revealed
an extremely thin thread of red. Zuo Mo showed some anticipation on his face before he left.
Coming out of the cave, Zuo Mo carefully laid out some jinzhi over the mouth to prevent others
from entering.

The disciples of Wu Kong Sword Sect had worked on their construction projects for quite a few
days before they finished the tasks set out in their jade scrolls. Zuo Mo did not explain very
much, but everyone still reliably finished their tasks. What Zuo Mo had picked were all
production xiuzhe, and they were mostly docile.
However, everyone was very curious what Shixiong planned on doing.
When the shixiong that had disappeared for a few days reappeared, everyone went to crowd
around him and reported their progress.
Zuo Mo focused and scanned everyones tasks before he had a satisfied expression.
Everyone, thanks for your hard work! Zuo Mo clapped his hand. Everyone gets a bottle of
Energy Dan, rest for a few days.
Even though they didnt know what Shixiong was doing, everyone felt satisfied with gaining a
bottle of Energy Dan. After receiving the reward, they all went to rest.
At this very moment, a sword light suddenly flashed on the horizon.
The sword light was extremely quick. The person seemed to have spotted the Desolate Wood
Reef. The lights direction changed and headed towards the Desolate Wood Reef
Zuo Mo and his compatriots instantly became nervous.
Translator Ramblings: So were heading into a stretch of chapters Id like to call Typing on a
phone while on a bus. All weird mistakes are probably me with autocorrect. Tell me if you find
them. The more you find at the same time, the more motivated I am to change them.
The table of contents has been updated and so has the cast. Also, should Zuo Mos pets be added
to the cast list?
The hornless dragon is Chi, one of the nine sons of the Long (dragon) in mythology. Chi
supposedly contains vast amounts of water in its stomach so the head of a Chi is usually carved
on building at drain pipes and water exhaust.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Seventy


Nan Ming Zi
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and Brian.
Chapter One Hundred and Seventy Nan Ming Zi
Zuo Mo did not panic. He only narrowed his eyes at the sword light heading towards them.
There was only one reason. With Wu Kong Sword Sects present status in Sky Moon Jie, no one
would so foolishly dare to antagonize them. Different than the other grand sects steady conduct,
the offensive power that Wu Kong Sword Sect were able to display had shook all of Sky Moon
Jie. No one was able to rival the fame of Xin Yans Ice Dragon Sword.
He took out a little flag from his ring. Raising his hand, the little flag started to grow. The mast of
the flag was more than three zhang high, about the thickness of a goose eye, completely black,
and appeared to be made out of steel. On the black flag, the words Wu Kong seemed to radiate
unlimited power. The brush strokes were like sword strokes, appearing to almost fly off of the
flag.
When the disciples saw the flag, all of them had a joyous expression. They sighed at the affection
that the sect leader had towards Zuo Mo. Each sect had their own tokens to prove their identities.
This flag was Wu Kong Sword Sects token. Other than being a token, it was also a talisman that
had been forged by several jindan together, who imbued it with many powerful abilities.
This Wu Kong flag had been something Shi Feng Rong had specially gone to Pei Yuan Ran to
obtain for Zuo Mo.
As the sword light reached them, a xiuzhe about forty years old, with a white clean-shaven face
and wearing a green Taoist robe could be seen. He was standing on a flying sword. At first
glance, he saw the flag. His expression changed slightly. The name of Wu Kong Sword Sect had
really become too famous recently.
Nan Ming Zi leapt down from the flying sword, and the flying sword flew into the sword sheath
on his back.
Humble Taoist Nan Ming Zi greets the friends from Wu Kong Sword Sect!
Greetings friend. Zuo Mo folded his hands and bowed.

The wariness in Zuo Mos heart did not lessen at all. Nan Ming Zi was in the intermediate stage
of ningmai, higher than all of the disciples here. The Desolate Wood Reef was also on the border
of the jie river. If Nan Ming Zihad any ill intentions,killed them for their treasure, and escaped
through the jie river into Little Mountain Jie, the sect wouldnt be able to easily find him.
Nan Ming Zi looked at the Wu Kong flag, and a flash of greed shone in his eyes. A talisman that
took several jindan to forge, naturally it was one of the finest! However, he quickly pushed down
the greed in his heart. A sect token was a good talisman, but it was also a hot potato.
When he detected everyones cultivation, his own heart instantly relaxed greatly.
He noticed Zuo Mo. From beginning to now, it was this person that was speaking with him. He
must be the leader of this group. He suddenly stared, Friend looks very familiar, please tell me
of your great name!
This one is Zuo Mo, Zuo Mo answered. He had caught sight of the glimmer of greed that had
briefly flashed in the others eyes. He was way too familiar with this kind of gaze.
Zuo Mo? Nan Ming Zi furrowed his brows to think. This face and the name, he was very
familiar with both. He suddenly lifted his head, Zuo Mo of the formation-seal-style?
Just little tricks, they dont deserve to be mentioned, Zuo Mo smiled expressionlessly.
Nan Ming Zis heart suddenly became cold. It had only been half a year since the Dong Fu
Sword Test Conference. Zuo Mos name had still not been forgotten. He took back his original
estimation. This expressionless guy in front of him had defeated ningmai before.
And the terrifying formation-seal-style
His gaze instinctively scanned the surroundings.
Line after line of criss-crossing pathways, piles of rock that clearly had been dug up
His heart suddenly beat faster. No way formation-seal-style
Zuo Mos expressionless face suddenly transformed into something as deep as the ocean, his
stare appeared cold like a hunter watching prey caught in a trap. He rejoiced that he hadnt
attacked just now. This zombie in front of him was one that killed without a trace!
There were many rumours about why the Dong Fu Sword Test Conference had stopped in the
middle, but no matter which version was told, they all used that enormous pit as the basis.

Nan Ming Zi was old and he had cultivated for a long time. His cultivation was even higher than
people like Gu Rong Ping. However, he was from a small sect. In terms of attack power and
techniques, he had to admit he wasnt a match for the youths of the Sword Test Conference.
A drop of sweat flowed down his back.
Ha ha. This poor Taoist is planning on passing through the jie river from here. Can this Taoist
borrow this land to rest for a few days? Nan Ming Zi hurriedly said. If this one disturbs, please
forgive my intrusion!
His hands were passing over five pieces of third-grade jingshi.
Zuo Mo hadnt expected the other to be so proactive. He did not change his expression as he took
the five pieces of jingshi. You are too polite! We have just taken possession of the Desolate
Wood Reef from Heart Lake Sword Sect. There hasnt been time to construct a few buildings. It
is a poor place with little to offer, please have tolerance.
Heart Lake Sword Sect
The sweat on Nan Ming Zis forehead became even more pronounced. If Wu Kong Sword Sect
could be called the rising nouveau-rich, than Heart Lake Sword Sect was old money with deep
foundations!
Since it was related to two big sects, Nan Ming Zi didnt dare to act easily. He originated from a
small sect and was very clear what power these big sects possessed. If it was only Wu Kong
Sword Sect, he might dare to risk it; but since it also related to Heart Lake Sword Sect, he no
longer had the courage.
The other disciples looked at Zuo Mo with eyes full of admiration. The other was a ningmai!
Nan Ming Zi was very tired after a long flight. He found a spot to meditate and recover his
strength. The disciples of Wu Kong Sword Sect found that in the next few days, Shixiong would
walk all over the place, occasionally putting all kinds of strange materials into the ground, or
casting some spells that no one understood.
But the formation that everyone imagined did not show any signs of completion.
Some less courageous disciples became panicked. Nan Ming Zi appeared friendly up until now,
but they still worried. The other was much stronger than them. After recovering, the difference
between the two sides would be even greater.
Zuo Shixiongs big formation still appeared incomplete.

The third day, just like normal, Zuo Mo continuously cast all kinds of spells on the ground. He
didnt seem very rushed, his composure idle.

In the middle of meditation, Nan Ming Zis eyes opened a sliver and looked thoughtfully at Zuo
Mo. These last three days, he had been observing Zuo Mo constantly. He didnt find any ripple of
a formation inside the island. Inside those criss-crossing canals, there was water that flowed in
and out into the Endless Ocean. From all the signs, Zuo Mos big formation did not seem to have
been completed.
Was he purposefully concealing it, or was the formation really not finished?
Nan Ming Zi wasnt sure. He decided to wait a bit longer. There wasnt anyone else on the
island, only this crowd of zhuji. For him, it was very easy to conquer. There usually wasnt any
wealth on zhuji xiuzhe. However, he coveted the flag in Zuo Mos hands. Zuo Mo had used so
many materials on the formation over the past few days that even Nan Ming Zi felt pain on his
behalf.
These three days, that Wu Kong flag could not be driven from his thoughts. As his ling power
recovered, Nan Ming Zis heart started to waver. Thinking that he was afraid of a zhuji xiuzhe, he
felt his face burn with shame. Other than formations, Zuo Mo could not be of any danger to him.
With his power, these zhujii cultivators completely had no power to resist. If the formation was
not complete, he had complete confidence he could quickly kill Zuo Mo. If it really came to that
point, he didnt plan on letting of any of the other Wu Kong Sword Sect disciples escape either.
Afterwards, he would flee to Little Mountain Jie, then to Sky Water Jie. No matter how powerful
Wu Kong Sword Sect and Heart Lake Sword Sect were, how could they find him then?
A dark light flashed across Nan Ming Zis eyes.

As Zuo Mo felt Nan Ming Zis vision, he started to sprint. Nan Ming Zi would never have
thought that Zuo Mos consciousness was so strong that he could detect that Nan Ming Zi had
been faking his meditation for the majority of the three days. Zuo Mo knew that Nan Ming Zi did
not have good intentions, but to scare Nan Ming Zi, he had acted in a very calm manner the past
few days.
As expected, troubled times had come! The world was in disorder!
Zuo Mo sighed inside, his feet moving faster. Now that society was in disorder, only having
enough power would keep him alive.
He travelled along familiar paths back to the underground lava lake. These last few days, the fire
formation in the lava lake had been continuously processing the copper hoop.
Zuo Mo waved his hand. The copper hoop rang and flew into his hand. The yellow-red copper
hoop was now a bright fiery red, looking slightly strange compared to before. The fire element
power had been very strong. After forging for three days and nights, the grade of the copper hoop
had been raised by one level, reaching fourth-grade.
He gave a satisfied expression.
Coming out of the lava lake, Zuo Mo did not conceal his figure anymore, flying straight into the
sky.

The other people instantly found Zuo Mo in the air.


The disciples of Wu Kong Sword Sect all had excited expressions. The murderous intent on Nan
Ming Zis face finally could no longer be concealed. He came to the conclusion that the
formation on the island really had not been completed!
Damn it! He had been tricked by this zombie! Nan Ming Zis eyes revealed his greedy and crazy
emotions. Born out of a small sect, even if he had reached the stage of ningmai, he still did not
have an appropriate talisman!

He might not understand formations, but he was very experienced. Seeing Zuo Mo, it looked as
though he was planning on activating the formation. Such a good opportunity, if he did not act
now, when could he?
Silently, his flying sword had come out of its sheath. It suddenly turned into a stream of light,
leaping towards Zuo Mo in the air.
Nan Ming Zi intended to kill with one blow. He did not hold anything back with this blow. The
sword light was like a snake, opening its gaping maw and showing its fangs. Even from a
distance, it was possible to feel the viciousness and maliciousness in the sword essence.
The expressions of the other disciples changed. Everyone took out their flying swords to try to
act against Nan Ming Zi.
Nan Ming Zi smiled coldly. His figure flashed and appeared both on the ground and in the sky.
Zuo Mo did not seem to detect the sword light heading towards him. He opened his hand and the
copper hoop slowly floated into the sky.
Ding!
As the red copper hoop slowly rose, it rang, producing clear bell-like sounds.
Ding ding ding ding!
It was as though there were countless wind chimes humming together with the red copper hoop.
The Desolate Wood Reef was filled with the sounds of chimes.
The sword light that was halfway in the air seemed to have encountered great resistance. The
body of the sword shook, and its speed suddenly decreased. Nan Ming Zis expression changed
greatly. Gritting his teeth, all his ling power flowed into the sword. The light of the sword
suddenly grew, its snake-like shape suddenly becoming even more realistic.
Hiss hiss!
The sword hissed as it cut through the air. The sword essence became even more brutal and
savage.
Facing such a strong sword presence, Zuo Mo didnt even bat an eyelid. All of his attention was
focused on the slowly rising copper hoop.

At this time, the red copper hoop had floated past Zuo Mos head. It was like the sovereign that
was facing the world. All the materials that Zuo Mo had cast into the ground seemed to have felt
some invisible magnetism and started to float up into the sky with the fiery red copper hoop.
In the sky above the Desolate Wood Reef, there was countless materials floating densely
together, as if to blot out the sun!
Translator Ramblings: Zuo Mo made a bluff. Im not sure what the sect leader was thinking since
Nan Ming Zis arrival should not be a surprise. Theres probably not a lot of alternatives but
strategically, why didnt one of the elders come earlier and set things up?! Jindan can travel
much faster.
Think of the hoop similar to Nezhas Universe Ring so somewhat bigger than the hand .

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Seventy


One Micro Void Arrow
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and Brian.
Chapter One Hundred and Seventy One Micro Void Arrow
The copper hoop was a Buddhist Sound Hoop, one of the finest of the third-grade talismans.
When Zuo Mo had found it in the stores, he had been very happy. It was hard to find fine soundtype talismans. This Buddhist Sound Hoop had been made from Meteorite Copper and Crimson
Red sand, and was able to produce a clear sound capable of breaking through illusions.
Especially rare was the Buddhist Formation on the hoop was steady and grounded, not flashy,
and had a uniquely dignified, serious presence.
After having been forged in strong fire element power for multiple days, the fire power flowed
through the hoop. The clear sound it produced had become a deep strum, and within it were
traces of hidden strength. What was special was the strength was like the sun, warm yet not
brutal. The hoop had risen from third-grade to fourth-grade, its power growing drastically.
From the moment he saw the Buddhist Sound Hoop, Zuo Mo had decided to take it. It was as
though it had been custom made for the [Skyring Moon Chime Formation]. The Buddhist Sound
Hoop did not provide as much fine control as his Lil Pagoda, but because it was a sound-type
talisman, it was much better suited to the [Skyring Moon Chime Formation]. Used as the center
of the formation, the power would be much greater!
When Zuo Mo stepped onto the Desolate Wood Reef, he had already planned it out.

He had decided to set up a [Skyring Moon Chime Formation] of unprecedented size! There was
enough manpower, and enough materials, there was also enough and time for him to set it up.
A two hundred and sixteen child formation [Skyring Moon Chime Formation]!
Three seventy-two child formation [Skyring Moon Chime Formation] were placed at the corners
of a triangle on the island, forming a large, never-before-seen [Skyring Moon Chime Formation].
It really was too large, so much that it required a talisman to act as the center of the formation.
Zuo Mo had never set up such a large [Skyring Moon Chime Formation] before. He also did not
know just how powerful the Buddhist Sound Hoop would be after it was tempered; but after
studying in the sword essence formation for half a year, Zuo Mos understanding of formations
was far greater than in the past. Even though he didnt have very much confidence, he still
proceeded accordingly, not panicked at all.
When he saw all the materials started to floated, his insecurities in his heart finally were
alleviated!
The Buddhist Sound Hoop and the formation had finished their resonance!
Ping!
In the sky, a red light flashed on the Buddhist Sound Hoop producing a sound that was powerful
and awe-inspiring. It was as if the Vajrapani Buddha was looking down with his eye,
authoritative yet not wrathful!

Nan Ming Zis eyes widened in disbelief. The sword essence that he had produced using all the
strength in his body was now weak as a bubble. With a pop, it scattered and disappeared.
An invisible Buddhist sound swept by. His body froze, the circulating ling power to resist the
freezing of his body.
Nan Ming Zi had a shocked expression. The power of the formation was far beyond what he had
imagined.
Not good! Hed been tricked!

He suddenly bit the tip of his tongue. A sweet, metallic taste instantly came into his mouth. A
strange red colour spread across his face, the ling power that had been reserved inside his body
was no longer held back. He felt his ling power surge through his body, plentiful like it never had
been before.
But he had already lost his courage. There was only one though in his mind, flee!
A shuttle shaped talisman in the shape of a date seed appeared in his hand. He hurriedly
channeled ling power into it.
Suddenly, a feeling of extremely danger appeared.
Uh-oh!
There was only time for that one thought before he felt a soft impact.
His chest had suddenly exploded without warning. He looked down and saw a bloody hole the
size of a fist in his chest. His vision darkened, and he did not feel anything else.
[Skyring Moon Chime Formation]s [Micro Void Arrow]!

Having seen the entire fight, watching Nan Ming Zis corpse plummet like a bag of sand, the Wu
Kong Sword Sect disciples below all had expressions of shock and awe. They had heard all kinds
of rumors about Zuo Mo Shixiong, but nothing was as shocking as personally seeing Zuo Mo
Shixiong easily kill a ningmai xiuzhe.
In the sky stood the figure of Zuo Mo, a thin body and with his eyes closed, instilled them with a
sense of awe and mystery

A beat later, Zuo Mo opened his eye, joy flashing across his eyes.

[Micro Void Arrow] was not a technique from the jade scroll of [Skyring Moon Chime
Formation], but a technique he had come to understand on his own by studying the sword
essence formation. In the sword essence formation, he had watched the process of many fine
sword essences gathering into stronger and bigger sword essence many times. [Micro Void
Arrow] was the result of the [Skyring Moon Chime Formation] producing large amounts of
extremely small chimes. These small sounds would not attract any attention, but when they
gathered together were very strong.
When the enemy inside the formation detected the danger, the [Micro Void Arrow] would have
already formed!
Having detected that Nan Ming Zi wanted to flee, for some strange reason, Zuo Mo had used this
technique that he wasnt familiar with. He hadnt expected it to be so effective. After finishing
the fight, he savored everything he had learned in the moment.
Looking at Nan Ming Zis corpse, Zuo Mo was not happy in the slightest.
The social order was in chaos!
When a nest was under attack, would any egg escape? He was just a cultivator in zhuji. The
worry in his heart only increased.
Zuo Mo slowly landed. The Buddhist Sound Hoop disappeared. All of the materials then entered
the ground. If it wasnt for the corpse on the ground, there was no sign that there had been a fight
on the Desolate Wood Reef.
Everyone, go rest. Starting tomorrow, we can start looking for ling veins. Zuo Mo said to the
other disciples.
Yes! The other disciples bent their heads and complied. The strength that Zuo Mo displayed
created awe in their hearts and made them more willing to follow.

It was a pity that Lil Black was asleep. Otherwise, it would be extremely easy to find ling veins.
However, these production xiuzhe had their own tricks. There was a ling plant farmer that knew
how to look for ling veins, and a beast-speaker who had a blue-star mouse that could find ling

veins. All of them were disciples of the same sect. And the Desolate Wood Reef was not large, so
no one concealed anything, cooperating in their search.
Since the [Skyring Moon Chime Formation] was mostly complete, Zuo Mos heart finally
landed. With the big formation present, he was not afraid of any ningmai. As for jindan, no
matter what talismans he had, they were not something he could face.
However, jindan experts would not care for the little wealth that he had.
Beside the lava lake, Zuo Mo took out what he had collected from Nan Ming Zis body. There
was a large pile of knick-knacks in front of him, but what were most eye-catching was a date
seed and a piece of withered vine.
Carved onto the date seed was a little ship, with exquisite pavilions and columns, sails and masts.
Zuo Mo remembered that Nan Ming Zi had taken out this date seed at the end when he clearly
wanted to flee. He instantly felt great interest. Who didnt like talismans used for escaping and
could potentially be life-saving?
He channeled ling power inside.
A strong suction force suddenly came from the date seed. The ling power in his body instantly
started to resemble a wild horse out of control, furiously flowing towards the date seed!
In the blink of an eye, the ling power in his body had been depleted.
Zuo Mo jumped in fright and forcefully stopped the flow of ling power. This date seed was
somewhat abnormal! Still wary, he put the date seed in front of him to carefully look. After
absorbing the ling power, there was no change.
He seemed to understand why Nan Ming Zi had not used the date seed ship earlier. It required
too much ling power to activate.
Zuo Mo grimaced inside. Ling power was his greatest weakness, yet the date seed ship required
large amounts of ling power. After all this trouble, what he received was a talisman that he could
not currently use.
He turned his eyes to the withered vine. His dejected mood instantly recovered, the joy in his
eyes increasing. In the end, he couldnt resist roaring with laughter.
He had made a profit!

The withered vine was not eye-catchingly pretty. Its muddy grey colour made it appear like any
other withered vine which could be found everywhere. When he had taken it out of Nan Ming
Zis ring, it had been piled together with a bunch of assorted items. Nan Ming Zi had not found
its value.
Zuo Mo recognized this vine. It had a very special name, Teeth Vine. It was a very scary
organism. A mature teeth vine would release extremely beautiful flowers with seductive sweet
fragrances. They were natural illusionists, able to transform into different shapes. From birth,
they were skilled in illusory skills. Prey that neared them would be unable to escape as though
they were trapped in illusory formations.
Once the prey entered its hunting range, as it cast an illusion, it would stealthily approach its
prey. It was not just a plant, but made from countless tiny worms which were called teeth.
Teeth Vine was an extremely weird and dangerous ling vine. Not only was this unattractive
withered vine was Teeth Vine, and it was a section of fourth-grade Teeth Vine.
Fourth-grade teeth vine!
He didnt know who was so skilled that they could even cut fourth-grade Teeth Vine. The danger
of a fourth-grade Teeth Vine definitely was not lower than that of any ningmai expert. It was
extremely hard to hunt and required the skilled handiwork of a professional hunter. To be able to
preserve the shape of the Teeth Vine, the hunter needed to use jade knives to cut it, otherwise, the
Teeth Vine would collapse and turn to dust.
If this little section of fourth-grade Teeth Vine was placed in the Hundred Treasure Flying
Pavilion, it could reach an astronomical price.
But Zuo Mo definitely would not sell it.
It was useful for him! He was going to make a sword formation!
It wouldnt be a big sword formation like the sword essence formation, but a convenient, easy-totransport formation that he could keep with him at all times. In other words, he decided to make
a set of flying swords that could set up a sword formation at any time!
Zuo Mo had come up to the idea while he had been imprisoned in the big sword essence. From
the moment the idea appeared in mind he was unable to sweep it away!
The fight with Nan Ming Zi reminded him that in chaotic times, the first priority was keeping
himself alive. The Desolate Wood Reef had the [Skyring Moon Chime Formation], so he had no

worries here. But he could not always stay on the Desolate Wood Reef. If he didnt have any
power to keep himself safe, he would just be a fat sheep that would be torn to pieces.
He had gained some experience when he had forged sword billets for Su, and inside the big
sword essence formation, the idea had been continuously perfected in his mind.
He had comprehended many things by personally experiencing the five different sword essences
in the last half year. Even if it was less pure than the shibo, but there was no problem of copying
it.
Five kinds of sword essence, Second Shibos Ice Dragon, Sect Leaders mountain, Third Shibos
snow fox, Masters vine, and Wu Ling Sanrens Bagua.
He had even considered which sword essences to use in the sword formation. He decided to
replace Wu Ling Sanrens Bagua sword essence with his own Li Water sword essence . The
quality of the Li Water sword essence was far lower in quality than the Bagua sword essence, but
he had a more profound understanding of Li Water sword essence and this would make the
formation easier for him to control.
However, no matter how good the idea was, he lacked materials.
If he reforged the Water Drop sword, it could be used for the Li Water sword essence. However,
Zuo Mo ran into difficulty with the four other swords. The mountain sword essence required an
earth-attributed flying sword; the ice dragon sword needed icy materials; the snow fox sword
essences needed things like fox claws or teeth; and the vine sword essence naturally required
ling vines.
Zuo Mo had went through the entire sect stores and hadnt found one item that he was satisfied
with to be used for the four types of materials that he needed.
Now, to his surprise, he actually found a fourth-grade teeth vine on Nan Ming Zis body. How
could he not be joyful?
Translator Ramblings: Some of what Zuo Mo has learned in the half year he spent in the sword
formation. Rather than learning one thing, and one thing only, he became even more of a jack of
all trades.
The more child formations there are, the more difficult it becomes so it wasnt just setting up
three * (seventy two child formations. ) Zuo Mo is an odd production xiuzhe that knows a bit of
fighting. The other disciples are what production xiuzhe should really be like.

Chapter One Hundred and Seventy Two Pu Yao Awakening
Forging the Teeth Vine sword would be a slow process because it belonged to the element of
wood. For this particular material a fire-forging method could not be used. Zuo Mo need to be
think more about how he should accomplish his goal. If he ruined this fourth-grade Teeth Vine,
there would be no pill he could take to cure him of such a regret.
The copper hoop was sent back into the ball of fire above the lava lake. Zuo Mo wanted to
temper it a bit more so he did not need to pay close attention to it while it was in the fire. He
hadnt expected that this method would have caused such a change in the big formation. And all
of this was caused by the combination of the copper hoop with earth fire.
The copper hoop was the center of the [Skyring Moon Chime Formation]. Being tempered in the
fire, it continuously received fire element power that was then passed through the hoop to the
entire formation, slowly changed the big formation. As the hot fire element power permeated the
formation, the originally cool aura of the formation was replaced by a domineering, hot presence
of fire.
The change in the big formation was beyond Zuo Mos expectations.
He suddenly felt anticipation. If the fire element power completely permeated the entire
formation, what would the resulting [Skyring Moon Chime Formation] be like?
Nan Ming Zi wasnt rich, but he had still been a ningmai xiuzhe. His wealth was still substantial
to someone like Zuo Mo. He threw the remaining items and talismans to Lil Pagoda. They were
deconstructed into pure five element energy, and was consumed by Lil Pagoda.
After taking in the five element energy, Lil Pagoda seemed more round, and it hopped around
joyfully.
Having had everything taken out of it by Zuo Mo, Nan Ming Zis dimensional ring was now as
empty as an abandoned shell. Zuo Mo put it on his hand. Nan Ming Zis dimensional ring was
very small, not even a quarter of Zuo Mos ring, but it was still valuable. Naturally, no one would
dislike having more dimensional rings.

Having sorted out Nan Ming Zis items, Zuo Mo changed expressions as he began examining
the black gold worm that appeared in his hands.
Lil Black had transformed dramatically. There were now red patterns on the back of his black
shell.
The antenna on Lil Blacks head moved. Zuo Mo was overjoyed. Was this glutton finally
waking up?
After short while, Lil Black slowly began to move in his hand, but the movement was jerky, as
though it was hung-over and unable to even walk straight. After it started to wake up, the
intangible connection between Zuo Mos mind and Lil Black reappeared.
Other than in appearance, Lil Black did not seem to have changed, but the joy that came from
Lil Black inside his mind made Zuo Mos mood better.
You glutton. One day, you will eat yourself to death. He couldnt resist muttering.
Thinking of that, he realized he didnt just have just one glutton on his hands. Silly Bird liked to
eat lingdan, she was also very picking. Lil Black liked to eat things rich in ling energy, Lil
Pagodas tastes were constantly increasing, and the demand on quality was becoming higher and
higher.
The two slender antenna on Lil Blacks head moved, as though they was objecting to Zuo Mos
comments. It was temporarily impossible to see any of the other changes but Lil Black seemed
to be more intelligent.
Haha, now that you are full, its time for you to work. Zuo Mo put Lil Black on the ground.
Lil Blacks antenna waved as it turned into a black-gold light and started to fly.
Zuo Mo hurriedly followed.
They were busy searching for a few days, but Zuo Mo seemed to have used up his luck.
There were few ling veins on the Desolate Wood Reef, and they were all small veins. If they
were used for ling fields, the grade definitely would not be more than third-grade. He finally
understood why Heart Lake Sword Sect had not developed Desolate Wood Reef. They had
definitely inspected the whole island and seen there was no value to developing it.
As expected, it really was a barren island!

Compared to Zuo Mos disappointment, the ling farming disciples of Wu Kong Sword Sect were
very excited.
When had they ever dreamed about possessing their own third-grade ling fields?
With great excitement, they were very motivated. Not just the ling farming disciples, even the
other disciples cooperated, as it was important for their crafts that the ling fields were ploughed
and ready as well. To raise ling beasts, they needed ling grasses. Those disciples that did danmaking needed ling herbs. Ling grains were also one of the greatest requirements for all people.
There were not many ling veins and therefore not many ling fieldsbut since only a few disciples
had come, there was a sufficient number of ling fields. Of course, this was also directly related to
Zuo Mo voluntarily surrendering his own share. With their Shixiong as role model, the others
interacted in harmony.
After ploughing the ling fields,there were more than six hundred mu of ling fields. With three
ling farming disciples, each person got two hundred mu. That wasnt really that much, but being
all third-grade ling fields, it easily satisfied the zhuji ling farming disciples. These three ling
farming disciples had not received their spring sprout jade medal, so they could not be
considered true ling plant farmers.
The other disciples began their own work. The disciples skilled in ling beast husbandry started to
construct their livestock shelters. Desolate Wood Reef was a very busy place.

Zuo Mo looked dazedly at the Endless Ocean.


What place is this? A familiar voice suddenly appeared next to Zuo Mo.
Zuo Mos body froze. He turned around. Pu Yao lazily stretched and yawned, Ive really napped
a long time this time!
A nap? Zuo Mo, who had felt joy, suddenly didnt know whether to laugh or cry.
He finally remembered this guy was a Sky Yao, a person who could live for several thousand
years and not die. Half a year, to him, it was just a short doze.

Why did you come to a terrible place like this? Pu Yao gazed around and asked curiously.
No way about it. This place is quiet. Zuo Mo said unconcernedly. He could feel Pu Yaos
consciousness sweeping across the entire Desolate Wood Reef in an instant.
Haha, good place, good place! Pu Yao laughed.
Whats good about this crappy place? Zuo Mo looked at Pu Yao like he was looking at an idiot.
You slept yourself into stupidity.
You wouldnt understand even if I told you. Pu Yao scornfully glanced at Zuo Mo and then
reached out a hand, Jingshi!
Zuo Mo forcefully controlled his impulse to charge and fight with Pu Yao. He took out ten pieces
of third-grade jingshi and threw it to this damned renyao.
Just this little bit? Pu Yao frowned in dissatisfaction. The hand he reached out with made a
grabbing motion in the air.
Clink-clink.
The familiar sound of jingshi. In his hands, a large handful of jingshi appeared!
It was as if Pu Yao had performed a magic trick. Zuo Mo gaped. After a while, he suddenly
reacted and hurried to check his ring.
You damned renyao, ye will kill you!
Zuo Mos grieving wail echoed across the Desolate Wood Reef!
Presently, Zuo Mo could be considered to have settled down on the Desolate Wood Reef. For a
long time, he was required to guard this barren island. When he had come, he had taken a large
portion of supplies. This also meant that he would not receive supplies from the sect for a long
time.
How to manage them, how to use them to get get stronger, these had became a problem that he
had to think about.
He asked Pu Yao for advice.
Pu Yao was unconcerned, None of my business!

Having interacted with this guy for so long, Zuo Mo knew what this renyao was like. He wasnt
angry and smirked. How much jingshi ye has, you know very well. When its all spent, all of us
can wait to die! Ye will die from starvation, you will die from poverty, in any case, it is still
death!
Pu Yaos expression was stunned. After a while, he said somewhat unwillingly, So ignorant.
Have you never heard the phrase eat the mountain by the mountain, eat the sea by the sea ?
Zuo Mo heard this, and his mind became alert, How to eat?
Pu Yao did not speak, suddenly sinking into thought.
Zuo Mo found it strange but did not disturb him.
After a while, Pu Yao opened, I will pass on a certain set of arts to you, but you need to help me
build a Nether Pool.
Nether Pool? Zuo Mo was puzzled.
Yes. Pu Yao did not speak of the detail, only looking at Zuo Mo.
Whats the purpose of the Nether Pool? Zuo Mo probed. This renyao looked harmless on the
surface but he was still a true yao, even though up until now, Zuo Mo had not seen him do
anything evil.
For my own use. Pu Yao said shortly.
Is it hard to build? What materials are needed? Zuo Mo spread his hands. There is nothing on
this stupid island. You are very clear about what resources I have. He didnt want to be unable
to build it after he agreed and have to take on a huge debt again.
It was not easy to owe Pu Yao anything. He had first hand experience of this fact.
It is not complex. That black water lake on the island is enough. Pu Yao snickered.
At this time, Zuo Mo realized why this guy had said this was a good place. So he had been
thinking of that black water lake.
No matter how stupid he was, he knew that rare things were valuable. To be able to be targeted
by someone like Pu Yao whose eyes were on the top of his head, that black water lake wasnt so
simple.

Such a big black water lake, to give it to you


Zuo Mo trailed off.
Pu Yao didnt fall for it. He narrowed his eyes at Zuo Mo. People shouldnt be too greedy.
Zuo Mo instantly faltered. However, his face was now as thick as a city wall, naturally not
something that could be defeated by just a sentence. He pretended not to hear it. You have to tell
me at the very least what you are passing on to me. It cant be something as crappy as that
[Fragrance Knowledge].
Crap? You just dont recognize quality when youre eyes are pressed up against it! Pu Yao
snorted and threw a ball of light at Zuo Mo.
Zuo Mo hurriedly caught the ball of light.
A Yao Nurturing Pool? Zuo Mo quickly furrowed his brows, his tone slightly fearful and
dissatisfied, as he said, Do you want me to commit suicide?
The spell that Pu Yao gave was a method to nurture yaomo. In the world of yaomo, yaomo were
divided into high and low ranks. Some high-level yaomo could use secret methods to create all
kinds of strange and powerful yaomo that they could control.
Zuo Mo sweated as he examined the knowledge, thinking that the yaomo really had no morals as
they did not even let go of their own kind. He had never heard of the yao nurturing methods
mentioned, but all of them were cruel and horrible. He couldnt even imagine how powerful and
vicious the yaomo that were raised under these methods would be!
He had no desire to learn at all.
These yao nurturing methods were too cruel. Also, if he took a yao or mo around in public,
people would instantly come to exterminate the yaomo.
In such a sensitive time, the terror that xiuzhe felt towards the yaomo had reached a height that
they hadnt reached in hundreds of years.
You really are idiotic. Pu Yao said scornfully, Even if you wanted to nurture yao, theres no
yao to nurture.
Zuo Mo stilled himself. That was true. The only yao here was Pu. Nurture him? Such an absurd
thought

Having finally understood, Zuo Mo instantly fell into a rage, Then why did you give me this?
You want to fool me again?
Pu Yao looked at Zuo Mo like he was looking at an idiot.
You cant nurture yao, but dont you know about beast nurturing?
Translator Ramblings: Guess whos back? Its just a little nap really, some people meditate
for longer than half a year.
Zuo Mo is a very generous supervisor. Of course, hes planning to make his own wealth in a way
that the elders didnt expect so hes fine with not growing ling grains. Here, I think the author
really slips in a detail about ling plant farmers. Zuo Mo probably picked the best farmers he
could out of the zhuji disciples, but none of them have the jade medal. Zuo Mo got it when he
was in lianqi. Since Wu Kong Sword Sect is so large now, this implies that Zuo Mos previous
achievement was pretty rare in Dong Fu.

Three Pulling Into The Fold
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and Brian.
Chapter One Hundred and Seventy Three Pulling Into The Fold
Chun Yu Cheng, Shixiongs looking for you, someone shouted.
Coming. Chun Yu Cheng responded, his hands carefully placing a young worm into the
nurturing formation, before standing and wiping the sweat off his face. He was twenty-four this
year, his appearance was handsome, with sharp brows and bright eyes. He was a very dependable
person. Even though he had not been part of the sect for very long, many female disciples had
made advances; but he had refused all of them.
Compared to the study of love between man and woman, he had more interest towards animal
husbandry.
Chun Yu Chengs cultivation could only be considered normal. He had just broken through to
zhuji, yet no one dared to underestimate him. He was twenty four years old, yet he had received
the white jade medal of the beast speakers. Even though he could not compare to Zuo Shixiong,
but he was definitely a talented individual. The jade medals of the beast-speakers were divided
into the ranks of white snake, black cobra, blue serpent, and crimson dragon. Within the

profession, people would usually just use the colors, so the white snake jade medal would be
referred to simply as the white jade medal.
In Zuo Mos company there were three people who had jade medals, Zuo Mo, Chun Yu Cheng,
and the last was Gongsun Cha, who had a butcher jade medal. No one would think that the clean,
white, scholarly looking Gongsun Cha would be a professional butcher. Supposedly, in the span
of fifteen minutes, he could dismember any ling beast to hundreds of pieces, the ling energy in
each piece conserved with the loss of ling energy of less than twenty percent.
Chun Yu Cheng was infatuated with beast keeping, but he wasnt dumb. He had instantly
perceived the increasingly terrible environment of the sect, so when he had been named to come
to Desolate Wood Reef, he had not hesitated. Before, the problem he had been most concerned
about was his safety. Now that Zuo Mo Shixiongs great formation had been completed, the
anxiety that had been building up up in the back of his mind was alleviated.
The environment of the Desolate Wood Reef was much worse than Wu Kong Mountain, but he
did not care. Without the conflict of mortal affairs, he could finally concentrate on his craft.
Hearing that Zuo Mo Shixiong was calling him, he hurriedly put down what he was doing.
Shixiong was the true master of the present Desolate Wood Reef. Chun Yu Cheng might not like
mortal affairs, but it wasnt as though he did not understand them. He had not interacted much
with Zuo Mo Shixiong and did not feel confident and was even slightly wary. However, up until
now, he was very satisfied with the present situation. The series of announcements that Zuo Mo
Shixiong had made, his action of not taking a share of the ling fields, had won the support of
everyone. Chun Yu Cheng was full of hope towards his future days.
Shixiong, you are looking for me? Chun Yu Cheng was slightly formal. After Zuo Mo had
killed Nan Ming Zi, the seeds of awe had been planted in everyones hearts.
But quickly, his attention was drawn to the pool that Shixiong was building.
This was a very strange looking nine-palace pool. Formations that he did not understand were
carved onto the sides and bottom of the pool, but there were one or two that he recognized.
Those were nurturing formations used in raising beats, it could cause ling beasts to grow faster.
When did Shixiong become interested in animal rearing? He was puzzled. Shixiong was
somewhat famous. Rumors had it that he knew something about everything, such as forging and
dan-making, and it couldnt be said that his skil in these crafts was low. But he had never heard
that Shixiong knew how to raise animals.

Hold on a second. Zuo Mo did not stop. His hands continuously casted light after light that
entered the walls of the pool.
Chen Yu Cheng began to understand. After each light that Shixiong cast, the walls of the pool
became shinier, and the traces of the formations on the pool became fainter.
When the last light entered the wall, the walls of the pool became transparent like they were
made from crystal. The marks of the formations on the walls had completely disappeared.
Zuo Mo panted and raised his head, asking, What ling beasts do you have on you?
Chun Yu Cheng paused and hurried to answer, The flight was too long. It was hard to bring
large-sized ling beats, all I brought were some small-sized ling beasts, like ling butterflies.
Oh, ling butterflies? Great, sell me some. Zuo Mo said.
Chun Yu Cheng said, Ling butterflies arent expensive. Shixiong, you dont have to pay. How
many does Shixiong want? Which types?
What type of ling butterfly? Zuo Mo stilled and then asked back, There are many kinds of
ling butterflies?
Chun Yu Cheng didnt know how to react, but didnt show it. Just what this little brother knows
of is about twenty thousand. However, I only have around one hundred eggs right now, but they
are all very normal. He guessed that Shixiong was having an impulse to work with ling beasts.
However, just as he said, these ling butterfly eggs really were not worth very much. Even if he
gave all of them to Shixiong, he wouldnt feel it was a loss.
Zuo Mo had an interested expression. Oh, so there is so much to learn here. Chun Shidi, please
introduce me.
Shixiong is too polite. Chun Yu Cheng started to introduce the different kinds of ling butterfly
eggs to Zuo Mo.
The introductions hadnt finished after four hours. Chun Yu Chengs throat was becoming dry,
and Zuo Mo was left dizzy.
Zuo Mo realized now that even with this beast nurturing pool, if he wanted to get some results, it
wasnt a simple matter. Hearing how clear and knowledgeable Chun Yu Cheng was while he was
talking about ling beasts, he couldnt help but sigh at the level of professionalism needed!
Suddenly, an idea sprouted.

Why couldnt he pull Chun Yu Cheng into the fold? If Chun Yu Cheng, the expert did it,
wouldnt it be easier to get results than an amateur like him?
The more he thought, the better Zuo Mo found the idea. His first aim was to make jingshi and
not just spend his savings. Other than making jingshi, he didnt have any interest in livestock. He
already had too many things he needed to study. If he added another area, he wouldnt be able to
learn it effectively.
Chun Yu Cheng was still relentlessly lecturing. Zuo Mo was very familiar with the enthusiasm in
his eyes. It indicated that the other really loved animal keeping.
Seeing such a determined gaze, Zuo Mo made the decision to incorporate Chun Yu Cheng into
his plans.
Halfway through, Chun Yu Cheng accidentally saw Zuo Mos eerie-green, wolf-like gaze and
shuddered inside. His tongue tying up. However, when he did a double-take to check again,
Shixiongs gaze was faint and calm, like a Dhyana expert.
He had just had a mistaken feeling! Chun Yu Cheng released a breath, organized his thoughts and
continued on.
Zuo Mo pretended to be listening careful. Secretly, he flipped an empty jade scroll from his ring
and imprinted some spells.
When Chun Yu Cheng finished, he hurriedly praised him, Chun Shidi really has great
knowledge. My own knowledge has grown greatly today!
Shixiong is too kind, this little brother has just entered the sect! Chun Yu Cheng said humbly.
Zuo Mo suddenly asked, Chun Shidi, what do you think about this pool?
This little brother is very ignorant and cannot understand anything except the nurturing
formation. This pool must be related to raising beasts. Chun Yu Cheng obediently replied.
Chun Shidi really has good eyes! Zuo Mo clapped as he praised. However, when matched with
his expressionless face, it looked very strange. He said mysteriously, Speaking of this pool, I
got it from an ancient jade scroll remnant, it is called the [Nine Heavens Illusory Divine Light
Serpent Transforming Dragon Pool]!
Nine Heaven Illusory Divine Light Serpent Transforming Dragon Chun Yu Cheng
gaped, stammering as he repeated this strange and extraordinarily lengthy name.

Zuo Mos eyes were serious. He did not look as though he was joking. He slowly took out the
jade scroll he had just created, That jade scroll remnant turned to dust after I read it. I do not
understand animal husbandry so I only remembered the general gist. Shidi, please have a look.
He was very certain the temptation that this jade scroll present to Chun Yu Cheng would be
sufficiently seductive. Inside the jade scroll, he had redacted large sections of sensitive content,
so the jade scroll seemed to lack many things. However, he was confident that even this ruined
jade scroll was enough to tempt Chun Yu Cheng!
Chun Yu Cheng took the jade scroll somewhat in disbelief. In reality, if it hadnt been that Zuo
Mo Shixiong had always maintained a reputation of trust, he definitely would have immediately
turned and left.
That name, it really
However, when he saw the first sentence on the jade scroll, it was as if he had been struck by
lightning.
Zuo Mo didnt hurry him.
He didnt worry that Chun Yu Cheng would steal the method and learn it. None of what Pu Yao
gave was easy to understand. This was the exact opposite of the gravestone. Not much effort had
to be spent on understanding what the gravestone had taught him. The most important part of this
set of spells was constructing the pool and was extremely complex. Other than Zuo Mo, no one
on the Desolate Wood Reef could understand it. In reality, Zuo Mo himself had just made a firstgrade yao cultivating pool.
Chun Yu Cheng raised his head, his eyes dazed. After a long time, his pupils final focused. The
first thing he did was bow, Shixiong, teach me!
To be able to qualify for the white snake jade medal at twenty four years old, there was no need
to describe Chun Yu Chengs talents with animals. With just one look look he understood the
value of this jade scroll.
No, the value of this set of spells!
He understood the value better than Zuo Mo!
Zuo Mo was correct in this thoughts. The temptation that this jade scroll presented to Chun Yu
Cheng was fatal!

Zuo Mo hurriedly helped Chun Yu Cheng upright, Shidi, dont be like this. We are brothers. On
this island, we naturally should help each other. Taking the chance, he threw out his own idea.
Im an pure amateur at raising animals. This Serpent Transforming Dragon Pool, oh, well call
it a beast cultivating pool, Shidi can manage it. What does Shidi think?
Chun Yu Cheng was joyous, I couldnt ask for more!
To be able to look over the beast pool, it was the best opportunity to study and experiment. This
set of spells was extremely deep and profound. The more he thought, the more excited he
became. He wanted to move over immediately.
Zuo Mo said seriously, Shidi also understands our situation. I built the beast pool with the aim
to earn jingshi and to not have to rely on just what we have. Such a project can also allow us to
establish our roots here on the Desolate Wood Reef.
Chun Yu Cheng calmed down slightly, Yu Cheng understands!
Zuo Mo said in satisfaction, Since it is for profit, then we need to make it clear.
Chun Yu Cheng said, Yu Cheng only wants to learn this method for study, not for jingshi!
Zuo Mo shook his head, Even blood brothers need clear accounts. Those are two different
matters. What is earned by this beast pool, Shidi gets three-tenths.
Chun Yu Cheng wanted to shake his head and refuse when he heard Zuo Mo say this. He was
interrupted in the middle. Shidi, do not refuse. This is what Shidi should get. Ha ha, if Shidi
feels embarrassed, then invest more effort on it!
Zuo Mo had started as an outer sect disciple. He could clearly understand many things. It was
only when emotion and profit were both tied together that this kind of cooperative venture would
be stable.
Chun Yu Cheng felt grateful but didnt know what to say. He only nodded in earnest. He decided
that he would work hard.
Zuo Mo snickered, Okay, then this is now Shidis job. If you need any materials, just tell me.
In the sea of consciousness, Pu Yaos face was full of disdain.
Zuo Mo clapped his hands in satisfaction and left.

Translator Ramblings: For those that thought Zuo Mo was going to start raising animals, the
author has sadly disappointed you. On the other hand, he already has pets so its not that much of
a loss.
Zuo Mos terrible naming sense makes an appearance.
The nine-palace pool is a really mystic term for what is essentially a three-by-three grid like the
one you draw for tic-tac-toe.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Seventy


Four Macro Golden Crow Formation
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and Brian.
Chapter One Hundred and Seventy Four Macro Golden Crow Formation
Zuo Mos finger movements continuously changed. His consciousness was like a third eye,
emotionlessly overseeing the rippling of the ling power at his fingers and the subsequent changes
in the dan cauldron.
Pu Yao had once said all changes were changes in formations.
What he was doing now was identifying that change.
Starting with the fasting pill at the beginning, he had studied the change in formations inside the
medicines. The changes in the dan were very complex. Even the simplest dan medicines would
need several kinds of materials, and higher-grade dan would require dozens of ingredients.
However, he hadnt found any dan that needed more than one hundred types of ingredients.
This was not difficult to understand; the more materials there were, the more uncontrolled factors
were present.
But those recipes were far above what Zuo Mo was studying right now.
What he was doing was still struggling with the most basic lingdan. To make them and to
understand each of the changes in them were completely different concepts and completely
different levels of difficulty. After going through the big sword essence formation and having
studied the basics discussed in the Kun Lun introductory formations jade scroll, Zuo Mo could
be considered half an expert in formations.

The changes in the lingdan might be complex, but Zuo Mos examinations were clear. After
careful study, he had learned many things. The Desolate Wood Reef was very isolated, much
quieter than Wu Kong Mountain; it was perfect for doing these kinds of activities that needed
lots of time, and he didnt have to worry about anyone disturbing him.
He had found twelve different frequent change formations.
After this, the rate of dan completion when he made dan would be astoundingly high.
To say of nothing else, just his skill in dan-making was now enough to support him anywhere he
went. The Golden Crow Pill that he had first become famous for was one of his primary
investigative targets. The Golden Crow fire contained inside the Golden Crow Pill was its only
value. However, due to the ingredients, he had no method of increasing the amount of Golden
Crow fire contained inside the lingdan, which meant that the Golden Crow Pill was stuck as a
low-grade lingdan.
Zuo Mo had wrung his mind out to think of ways to make jingshi.
It was unknown what effect the beast pools would have, when it would produce anything, and
how much could be made from it. Zuo Mo naturally wouldnt put all his hopes on the uncertainty
of the beast pool. Dan-making was the other method he had to consider to make jingshi.
The Desolate Wood Reef was truly isolated. If it only produced ordinary things like ling grains,
there certainly would not be people who would be willing to come. What kind of circumstances
would cause other people to come a long way to the Desolate Wood Reef? Only when the
Desolate Wood Reef had things that could only be found here and nowhere else.
Golden Crow Pill was not a bad choice.
However, the present Golden Crow Pill was just a second-grade lingdan, and its effects were too
limited. Even if it did have some effect, but it was not enough to attract people to come a long
way. Zuo Mo had thought for a long time how to increase the grade of the Golden Crow Pill.
He believed that if it was third-grade Golden Crow Pill, merchants would definitely be willing to
come to the Desolate Wood Reef to buy it!
He had a general understanding of the few formations inside the Golden Crow Pill. But there was
one formation that Zuo Mo had never seen before. It was constructed out of medicinal power,
and had two uses. One use was that it could lock the essence of the sun, while the other use was
that it could turn the trapped sun essence into Golden Crow fire.

Zuo Mo called this previously unseen formation [Golden Crow Formation]. The Golden Crow
Formation was so complex and exquisite that it was able to broaden Zuo Mos vision on the
scope of formations.
The formations found in dan-making were much more complex than the formations he could
normally learn. The formations he used were large and broad, the ling power moving clearly
through them. The formations in dan-making were shrunk into a small space, complex like hair
twisted into a knot and difficult to find their true design. Zuo Mo called the formations he usually
used macro-formations and the formations in dan-making could be called micro-formations.
Occasionally during this period of time,, other xiuzhe would arrive at the Desolate Wood Reef,
wanting to pass through the jie river into Little Mountain Jie. Zuo Mo asked for one hundred
pieces of third-grade jingshi from each of them. For those that did not have the jingshi, they
could use other things to barter. Zuo Mos trademark zombie face, the name of Wu Kong Sword
Sect, and the threat of the [Skyring Moon Chime Formation] was enough for each of these
ningmai xiuzhe to willingly pay the one hundred pieces of third-grade jingshi for their resting
fee.
On average, there would be one person coming every two or three days. That meant, that every
two or three days, Zuo Mo would earn one hundred pieces of third-grade jingshi . His days were
very good.
Other than concentrating on his own experiments, he had taught some of what he knew about
ling farming to the other three shidi who specialized in ling farming. He practiced all five
elements, and his knowledge was much higher compared to the past.
Zuo Mo was an obsessive collector of jade scrolls. The number of jade scrolls that he possessed
definitely was far more than what others would expect of a zhuji, and the collection was very
diverse. Even though the grade on average was not high,there were some very good ones. Ling
farming, beast raising, butchering, etc., he had all of them. The area that he had relatively little of
were sword scriptures. However, on the island, except for Zuo Mo, who would spend time on
sword scriptures, no one was interested in sword scriptures. He opened all the jade scrolls to the
shidi and built a records room.
The jade scrolls collected by Wu Kong Sword Sect were primarily sword scriptures, and what
Zuo Mo collected was the exact opposite. In terms of variety, the sects records room could not
compare to Zuo Mo, but in terms of quality, Zuo Mo could never compete with the sect.
When the shidi went into the records room and saw the sheer number of jade scrolls, they were
stunned and surprised! Their desire for jade scrolls was similar to Zuo Mo.

Reading jade scrolls required paying a fee. No one had any objections to this. How could there
be free meals in this world? Wu Kong Sword Sects records room had been free to use at the
beginning, but after the expansion it had returned to its old practices.
Taking into account the shidi didnt have much jingshi; Zuo Mo was devious in his use of tabs
and silently became their creditor. The fees for using the records room were much lower than the
sect. They would go into debt but would be able to immediately learn new spells. How could the
such an arrangement not make them happy?
The records room quickly became the most popular place on the Desolate Wood Reef.
What Zuo Mo had picked were production xiuzhe. They did not like conflict, were dependable,
and hardworking. Now that there was a records room, everyone had even more motivation. The
atmosphere of the Desolate Wood Reef was extremely good; everyone had comfortable days.

Wiping away the sweat on his forehead, his face covered in dust, Zuo Mo looked at the large
formation that he had just completed. His heart slightly hesitant.
The formation in front of him was the [Golden Crow Formation]!
Zuo Mo had used jade pieces and jingshi to create a Golden Crow Formation. This was the first
time he used a macro-formation based off of a micro-formation that was used in dan-making. He
had spent large amounts of time on the [Golden Crow Formation] but didnt have any
confidence. Theoretically, the micro-formations and the macro formations should not be any
different.
It took Zuo Mo twenty days to set up the macro-version of the Golden Crow Formation. Ever
since he had come up with the idea of using macro formations to construct micro formations, the
idea had been like a recurring nightmare that could not be erased. He had enough jingshi now, if
he didnt do it now, when could he ever do it?
But once he started setting up the formation, he found the difficulty was much higher than he had
anticipated.
The ling power pathways of macro formations were clear, but compared to their counterpart
micro formation, they were crude and rough. It was hard to use the macro formations to do such

detailed changes. Zuo Mo had ran into great trouble. His original plan had been to set up a
Golden Crow Formation that was about five zhang wide, but what he produced was fifty zhang
in diameter.
It was like an enormous nest. Hollow in the center, while in the surroundings countless materials
floated in the air, forming a complete circle.
What caused his heart pain was that the cost of the macro Golden Crow Formation was far
greater than his predictions. This one formation cost a thousand third-grade jingshi!
Once the formation was activated, he would lose one thousand jingshi. This experiment could
really be called expensive. It was also why Zuo Mo was hesitant. One thousand third-grade
jingshi!
Pu Yao appeared beside Zuo Mo. Looking at the materials floating in the air, he twisted his
mouth, Its really ugly!
Zuo Mo didnt pay attention to that guy. He gritted his teeth and decided to activate the
formation.
Stepping into the already formed formation, his expression was stern, and his ling power began
flowing through all ten of his fingers. A faint light appeared on his fingertips, as his fingers
danced.
Lights flashed, extinguishing as quickly as they appeared.
A golden pillar of light came down from the sky and connected with one that came from between
his hands.
As his fingers formed shapes, the golden pillar of light turned to ten beams that spread
throughout the formation.
The golden light was reflected and passed around by the jade pieces in the formation. The jade
pieces instantly became coated in gold light when the golden light touched them.
In the sky above the formation, it was possible to see the golden light slowly spread out in the
formation like water. Everywhere it passed, the floating jingshi lit up becoming blindingly bright,
like stars in golden colored lake. The entire process took an hour before the great formation
started to give off a uniform golden glow.
The noise from the formation had alarmed many of the shidi, but when the discovered it was
caused by Zuo Mo Shixiong, other than expressing amazement found it extremely normal. If

Shixiong wasnt working on formations, was it still the shixiong that was famed for his
formations?
Zuo Mos hands did not dare to stop, the Art of Crimson Flame being pushed to the extreme.
At this time, the formation changed again.
Countless golden lights flew out of the jade pieces like fish, gathering in the empty space in the
middle of the formation.
In the center of the formation, about two zhang from the ground, a ball of golden light was taking
form.
Once the ball of light formed, the speed the light gathered suddenly increased. The golden lights
were as dense as rain as they ran to merge into the golden ball of light.
The golden ball of light continuously increased in size, starting from the size of a basket in the
beginning and growing to the size of a dining table. Zuo Mos expression became even more
nervous.
Why wasnt there a change yet?
Zuo Mo stared at the ball of light, his hands continuously changing. He did not notice that the
pillar of light from the sky that entered his hands was as thick as his arm.
Theoretically, a change should be happening now!
But the ball of light was still expanding. The change he had predicted had not occurred yet
Becoming fire!
The most important step of the formation of Golden Crow fire. If this step did not happen, the
essence of the sun could not form the Golden Crow Fire!
Time slowly passed. After eight hours, Zuo Mo felt extremely dizzy, his hands limper than ever.
In the middle of the formation, the ball of light was now about the size of a house. Even the
person who made it all, Zuo Mo, felt scared when he saw such an enormous ball of light.
All of this, it was the explosive essence of the sun!
If he was not careful

He could not imagine what would happen! The present situation was completely beyond out his
predictions and control.
Just as he carefully acted as though he was on thin ice, he detected a change in the ball of light!
Translator Ramblings: WanderingGummiOfDoom has calculated the formation is about 8
football fields.
Zuo Mo wants to make money because it is the only way he can cultivate at this point. The ling
veins are being used for farming and they are not very high level so he needs a source of ling
power.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Seventy


Five Fire!
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and Brian.
Chapter One Hundred and Seventy Five Fire!
Inside the ball of light, something seemed to break.
A flame seemed to jump out of the ball of light. In the blink of an eye, the ball of light became a
ball of pure golden-yellow flame spitting in the air. The ball of fire quickly collapsed into itself,
and the house-sized ball shrinking into a flame the size of a fist.
Even though the flame was now the size of a fist, an extremely yang and extremely strong
presence emanated from it.
Zuo Mo was affected, and his finger motions stumbled. Luckily, the formation had already been
completed. The flames presence made Pu Yao furrow his brows. He wore an expression of
digust.
Im very curious how you are planning to deal with this? Pu Yao glanced at the flame before
looking towards Zuo Mo, Do you want to absorb it? Im warning you, This Golden Crow Fire is
not something you can tolerate.
No, Im not planning on absorbing it. Zuo Mo shook his head. Pu Yao wasnt wrong. Sensing
the strong presence radiating from the Golden Crow Fire, he understood this wasnt something
he could absorb at the moment. The amount of Golden Crow Fire in the Golden Crow Pill was
just a thread so it was not hard to absorb, but this ball of Golden Crow Fire was pure and strong,
beyond what he could endure. If he was a ningmai, it would be a wonderful fire seed.

This answer was not out of Pu Yaos expectations. He gave a scornful expression, You made all
this noise and got this little ball of flame. So now what, do you want to use it for a barbecue?
Staring at the burning golden-yellow flame at the center of the formation, Zuo Mo licked his lips,
his eyes like a hungry wolf staring at a lamb. So this is Golden Crow Fire!
So what? You cant use it! Pu Yao said scornfully like he always did. Your formation can only
be maintained for five days at most , and then this ball of Golden Crow Fire would naturally
dissipate. Do you want to forge it into lingdan?
No, I changed my mind! Zuo Mos eyes were fixed on the fist-size Golden Crow Fire.
En?
Ill sell fire! Directly sell Golden Crow Fire! The light in Zuo Mos eyes grew, like the
blinding light produced by countless jingshi. He waved his arms, his voice filled with excitement
and joy. Ill split this Golden Crow Fire into a few dozen fires, seal them in jade boxes with a
formation, and sell them!
Pu Yao had to agree that Zuo Mos idea was interesting. However, he glanced at the ball of
Golden Crow Fire and said, You can divide this, you know the formations to seal it? Dont ask
me, the methods I know, you cant use it, even I cant use it at present.
Thats a problem, Zuo Mo said. He didnt answer and sunk deep into thought.
Pu Yao did not disturb him. It had to be said that if Zuo Mos method really worked, then the
business opportunity in here was astounding! Fourth-grade Golden Crow Fire did not lack for
demand. Right now, he was tied together with Zuo Mo. Only if Zuo Mo had jingshi could he
spend it. Even more, his Nether Pool was still lacking all of the materials needed to complete it.
The black water was uselessly sitting in the middle of nowhere.
The damage accumulated over a few thousand years, it could not be repaired so easily.
However, troubled times were coming
He liked that.
Zuo Mo entered a period of mania. If he could solve this problem, Heavens! The jingshi! None
of the business that Zuo Mo had done before could rival this one!
He seemed to see a great pathway made of jingshi in front of him. Any piece that he could chip
off was fourth-grade!

The thoughts of jingshi did not mess up Zuo Mos mind. Quite the opposite, he was full of
excitement and motivation. At this time, if a ningmai came, no, even a jindan, then Zuo Mo
would howl and charge to chop the other into pieces!
Five days, the macro Golden Crow Formation could only be maintained for five days. Zuo Mo
didnt bear to waste one blink.

The fourth day.


Zuo Mo held the jade box in his hand and roared with laughter.
Pu Yao came with the noise. Success?
Looking at the concern on Pu Yaos face, Zuo Mo was smug. He roared with laughter again.
He definitely succeeded!
The formations he studied came from the Kun Lun introductory formation jade scroll. This jade
scroll, which Zuo Mo thought could also be called the Encyclopedia of Basic Formations, had all
kinds of fundamental formations and naturally included formations to seal things.
What Zuo Mo picked was a formation called [Mini Lock Formation.] It was suitable for sealing
in items that were intangible.
Naturally a mere second-grade formation like the [Mini Lock Formation] was not enough!
Golden Crow Fire was fourth-grade, even if it was split into a dozen parts and weaken greatly, it
was still not something a [Mini Lock Formation] could seal. Using the [Mini Lock Formation] as
a basis, Zuo Mo had thought of ways to strengthen it.
His original intention had been to try to strengthen the [Mini Lock Formation], but he had not
been able to find an appropriate method. Incidentally, of the micro formations he had discovered,
he found an unique formation.
Its purpose was very strange, it could suppress medicinal power. Usually, it was used in lingdan
that were quite domineering. It would suppress the medicinal power so the medicinal power
would slowly enter the channels without damaging them.

This was an unexpected, happy surprise for Zuo Mo. Without strengthening the formation, he
could suppress the Golden Crow Fire, it was the same!
It did not take him too long to merge the two formations. Zuo Mo named the new formation the
[Mini Seal]. The Mini Seal was put on a palm-sized jade box. Zuo Mo used the best jade that he
had for the box, third-grade icy jade, and called it a mini box.
Embed on each jade box were nine pieces of third-grade jingshi to provide ling power for the
[Mini Seal]. In one go, he forged almost one hundred jade boxes.
Just the value of one of these jade boxes alone was not low. If it wasnt that they were to be used
to containing the Golden Crow Fire, Zuo Mo couldnt bear to have use such good ice jade to
make simple jade boxes. Looking at the attractive appearance of the mini box, Zuo Mo decided
to raise the price of the Golden Crow Fire.
Ha ha, anyone that was able to by the Golden Crow Fire, they wouldnt care about spending
another few dozen more jingshi!
Pu Yao thought it was too early to be happy. He reminded Zuo Mo, What about dividing the
fire?
Ha ha, just keep on watching. It was rare that he could show off in front of Pu Yao. Zuo Mo
deliberately concealed his plan.
However, when Zuo Mo faced that fist-sized ball of Golden Crow Fire, he pushed all thoughts of
showing off to the back of his mind.
The pure golden-yellow Golden Crow Fire was a true sovereign. Silently burning, it was like the
king of lions unconcernedly smoothing its fur. Each time the flame jumped and spat, a
oppressive presence would ripple into the surroundings.
With Zuo Mos cultivation, if it wasnt that his spirit was strong enough, he wouldnt even be
able to stand up against this Golden Crow Fire. A benefit of a strong spirit was that his mind was
very stable, and not easily affected by outside factors.
He didnt start dividing the fire immediately, but hammered many large metal nails around the
Golden Crow Fire. These nails were longer than a chi, about the thickness of three fingers.
Cinnabar character seals could be seen glistening on the body of the nails. These were metal nails
that were commonly used in formations. Being second-grade, they were useful for many
formations.
Zuo Mo imbedded a dozen metal nails.

Standing and taking a breath, he hung the Streaming Fire Core Manipulation Pendant on his
waist to increase his control over fire.
However, the method he used this time wasnt one that was used to control fire!
He inhaled heavily, his chest rising, his eyes bulging as his hands suddenly started to whirl!
Bam!
A suddenly explosion sounded without a warning.
The floating ball of Golden Crow Fire suddenly shook, as though it was alarmed. Explosions
sounded, one after the other.
After just one round, and Zuo Mos heart tightened. It seemed it was more difficult than he had
thought! However, he didnt have the time to think more. His hands continuously increased their
speed.
Pia pia pia!
The explosions became more rushed and close together, the shaking of the Golden Crow Fire
increased.
Zuo Mos forehead was covered in sweat, steam rising off like smoke. His eyes were filled with
blood and widened greatly.
The ten fingers on his hands twirled so fast that it was as if they were a ball of shadows. If
someone happened upon this scene, they would be unable to clearly see his fingers.
The shaking Golden Crow Fire convulsed erratically, and could collapse at any moment. The
fierce and pure presence of the fire was completely sent out. Like a flood, it furiously pushed at
everything in the surroundings.
Crack crack crack!
Cracks continued to appear on the jade pieces of the macro Golden Crow Formation. The
formation was going to collapse!
If Zuo Mo did not successfully divide the fire, the Golden Crow Fire would instantly disappear.
Without the support of the formation, the Golden Crow Fire would dissipate quickly.
The tendons on Zuo Mos forehead bulged like green earthworms.

Open! His voice was like spring thunder, his hands suddenly turning with power he never had
before!
Boom!
The Golden Crow Fire exploded, turning to dozens of thumb-sized flames. The fierce presence
that Zuo Mo felt afraid of instantly became much weaker.
The alarming cracking sounds also stopped. The moment before the large formation collapsed,
Zuo Mo successfully divided the fire and the formation managed to stay whole. This way, he
received precious time to breathe.
Zuo Mo panted furiously, his arms sagged as if they were filled with lead, unable to be raised.
But in his eyes, there was only joy!
Success!
He really did it!
Pu Yao gaped. The method Zuo Mo used was completely out of his expectations. Zuo Mo
actually used the method to divide dan!
During dan-making after the raw materials were added, medicinal fluid would take form, and
this fluid would become lingdan in the end. However, the number of lingdan that would be
produced from a single cauldron would depend on the skill of the dan-maker dividing the dan.
Skilled dan-makers could produce more than a hundred lingdan from each cauldron.
For low-level lingdan, if they were made one by one, the time needed could not be imagined.
Dan dividing was then one of the techniques that those who studied dan-making had to learn.
However, Pu Yao never would have imagined that Zuo Mo would use the strange method of dandividing to divide fire!
This guy
He looked at Zuo Mo.
When some feeling returned to his hand, a bottle of lingdan appeared on Zuo Mos hand.
Removing the cork, he shoved all of the contents into his mouth. He didnt have the time to
resolve the medicinal power so he used sheer quantity as a substitute.
After one bottle of lingdan was consumed, he felt much better.

But .,.
The medicinal power of one entire bottle
Zuo Mo quickly experienced the aftereffects. The ling power that suddenly exploded in his body
was like a flood bursting through a dam, rushing through his body!
Damn it!
Zuo Mos face twisted. However, he didnt have the time to slowly absorb the lingdan. He
quickly took out the mini boxes and started to harvest the Golden Crow Fire seeds.
Quickly, he had sealed all the Golden Crow Fire but the ling power in his body did not show any
signs of exhaustion.
He had calculated wrong!
Compared to the astounding consumption of before, the ling power used to harvest was pitifully
little!
Pu Yao was laughing at him from the side.
Just when Zuo Mo felt he would explode and die, suddenly, someone quickly flew over, their
voice filled with terror.
Shixiong, theres trouble! Trouble!
Translator Ramblings: Zuo Mo finally finds a product to tempt people to travel. After more than
one hundred chapters, Zuo Mo finally gets Golden Crow Fire.
Time is so blurry in this story. Fang Xiang doesnt give time intervals. Its definitely more than a
year since the beginning of the story, but there isnt much else.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Seventy Six


Brute Strength!
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, Brian, and warlord212.
Chapter One Hundred and Seventy Six Brute Strength!

What is it? Zuo Mo gritted his teeth as he forced the words out one by one through his teeth.
He was putting all he could into suppressing the ling power that was rushing through his body.
Damn it!
His ling power was like a wild beast that was caught, furiously struggling, furiously charging
around to try to break through the layer of imprisonment.
But his state was not betrayed by Zuo Mos zombie face.
Theres a Blue Spiked Crocodile that suddenly charged out of the water! It wounded one of the
shixiongs , The disciples expression was one of panic, but his speech was relatively clear.
Go! Zuo Mo spat out through his teeth.
He just took one step, and the ling power in his body shuddered. He staggered. The restless ling
power in his body made him jump. Disregarding the mocking laughter from Pu Yao inside his
sea of consciousness, he hurriedly activated his [Vajra Profound Sutra].
Pei Yuan Ran and the others would never have thought that the [Vajra Profound Sutra] they had
intended to suppress had been instead become well-developed. It could not be suppressed and
progressed extremely quickly. The fine sword essences inside the formation had been like
sandpaper that continuously ground against Zuo Mos body.
The [Vajra Profound Sutra] was greatly stimulated, and naturally circulated on its own. In half a
year, Zuo Mo was only one step away from the fifth level.
Silently using the scripture of the [Vajra Profound Sutra], the sense of danger from the energy
inside his body lessened. He released a sigh of relief.
His entire body was dark gold, a natural fierce presence exuding by itself.
In the sea of consciousness, Pu Yaos expression suddenly became angry. A bloody light flashed
through his eye. Staring at the gravestone, a cold voice floated from the corner of his mouth, I
hadnt thought that you would steal in front of me again. However
Zuo Mo gritted his teeth, his steps fast as he sprinted with the shidi that came with the message.
From long away, he saw the troublemaking Blue Spiked Crocodile. It was idly lying on the
beach, disregarding the Wu Kong Sword Sect disciples that was surrounding it. However, the
moment Zuo Mo appeared, it suddenly raised its head and opened its eyes.

The eyes of the Blue Spiked Crocodile were like needles, cold and without a hint of warm.
Saliva slipped out of the corner of its mouth with dense teeth. Its body was covered in black and
shiny armor, and it was easy to see from a glance that it would be hard to wound even with a
flying sword. On its back was a row of blue spikes the width of an infants fist. They were very
good primary materials for making flying swords, and were also the crocodiles life-saving
weapon.
The entire body of the Blue Spiked Crocodile was treasure, but not many people were willing to
kill it. It was a truly a brutish existence!
Zuo Mos eyes turned to the blood soaked and injured right leg of the shidi. It was like a spark
had been thrown into a barrel of dynamite. The ling power in his body exploded and went
berserk!
Without a second word, his hands held the Water Drop sword.
One step, his body was like an arrow. Everyone felt their eyes blur, and Zuo Mo appeared beside
the Blue Spiked Crocodile!
The body of the Water Drop sword was covered by a water- flame. The flame was silently
burning, not as grand and shocking as the water-shaped flame of the past.
Die! Zuo Mo shouted. His body was seemingly made of gold, his eyes wide.
The Water Drop sword went from bottom to up! Li Water Burning Heavens! The first attack was
his killing move!
The rampaging ling power in his body furiously flooded through the Water Drop sword in his
hand. What was strange was the water-shaped flame on the Water Drop sword did not grow, but
became even more transparent.
His sword essence, after going through the sword essence formation, was much more pure and
introverted than before.
The Blue Spiked Crocodiles reputation was clearly preceded by the extraordinary nature. Its
body moved, and the steel-like tail whipped horizontally. With a piercing howl, it launched itself
forward.
One tail and one sword clashed together.
Bam!

The explosive sword essence of the Li Water Burning Heavens seemed to have found a vent
when it came into contact, and exploded!
At the same time, a domineering and powerful force passed from the Water Drop sword to Zuo
Mos hands.
Zuo Mo felt his palms shake. The Water Drop sword had almost been thrown out of his hands.
If he let go at this time, he definitely would be wounded, and the Water Drop sword would most
likely fly far away from the current battle. Without a flying sword, how could he face the Blue
Spiked Crocodile? There was no time to think. Using all his strength, his hands gripped tightly
on the hilt of the Water Drop sword! A strong force passed from his palm to his arms to his entire
body. The ling power that was rampaging through his body paused with this sweep of the Blue
Spiked Crocodile.
It could be seen just how strong his foe was!
After retreating for more than ten strides, Zuo Mo finally steadied his body. Inside he was
shocked.
The Blue Spiked Crocodile had also received some significant wounds. Its tail was ripped open,
bleeding, the wound cut down to the bone. The combined offensive power of the [Vajra Profound
Sutra] and the [Li Water Burning Heavens] could be seen.
However, what Zuo Mo had not expected was that the wounds would be unable of causing the
Blue Spiked Crocodile to feel fear. Instead it had aroused its viciousness.
The eyes of the Blue Spiked Crocodile stared fixedly at Zuo Mo. A vicious and brutal aura
tightly locked onto Zuo Mo.
Its long body shook and waved like a fish in the water. It was astounding fast as it charged at Zuo
Mo.
Zuo Mo only saw a black shadow leaping at him. Without time to think, he channelled [Vajra
Profound Sutra] to its maximum. His eyes were bright gold and a golden light was shining from
his body! His hand held the Water Drop sword, the water flame on the sword was so transparent
it was almost non-existent.
Li Water Burning Heavens!
Bang!

A sound of impact that was even deeper and more terrifying than the previous one that resounded
out!
The energy inside Zuo Mos body roiled. He could not stop his body, bam bam bam, he went
back seven steps.
Just having steadied himself, the Blue Spiked Crocodile leapt forward again! The mouth of the
crocodile was like an enormous set of clamps, its two rows of sharp teeth were frightening!
The Water Drop Sword that Zuo Mo swept upwards just barely managed to block the enormous
teeth of the Blue Spiked Crocodile.
The bloody maw of the Blue Spike Crocodile was so clear in Zuo Mos eyes. He was even able
to see the remaining blood and flesh inside the mouth. A fishy smell flooded his face. Right after,
he felt his surroundings blur. Like a sandbag, he was throw more than ten zhang away, stopping
only when he had crashed into a tree.
Zuo Mo stood up. With the [Vajra Profound Sutra] present, he wasnt wounded.
He widened his eyes, staring motionlessly at the Blue Spiked Crocodile.
The berserk ling power inside his body affected Zuo Mos mood. He was like an infuriated beast,
all his thoughts thrown to the back of his head. In his eyes, there was only this Blue Spiked
Crocodile! There was one thought in his head: kill it!
The Blue Spiked Crocodile shook its head. It had not succeeded with the last two charges. It was
slightly dizzy. However, Zuo Mos following actions provoked it again!
Such a small being dared to challenge it!
Seeing the Blue Spiked Crocodile charge at him, Zuo Mo bared his teeth, his eyes dark.
His feet trotting, his hands held the sword at his side as he sped up.
A black figure and a golden figure smashed together like two meteorites! Boom!
A thunderous explosion! The black figure and the now blue blur bounced off of each other, the
two moving backwards with even greater speed!
Bam bam bam. Zuo Mo was thrown like a sandbag, hitting the ground and bouncing up, then
hitting the ground and bouncing up after bouncing more than seven times, he finally
managed to stop. After being thrown so violently, his eyes were dizzy. After a moment, he

struggled up, and spat out a mouthful of sand. The last impact was much stronger than the
previous ones. His skeleton felt as though it was going to collapse. The ling power that was
exploding inside his body had almost dissipated.
Panting, he thought inside that the bastard should be pretty much done!
Suddenly, his eyes focused. Nearby, that Blue Spiked Crocodile shook its head, staring with its
eyes as it moved to charge.
Seeing the Blue Spiked Crocodile, the anger inside Zuo Mos heart rose.
If ge cant kill you today, then ge will change my surname to You![i]
Die! Zuo Mo gritted his teeth. He held the Water Drop sword, started his trot again and
charged at the Blue Spiked Crocodile.
The Blue Spiked Crocodile shook its head, howled once, and turned to a black shadow, leaping
at Zuo Mo.
Bam! It was another simple crash. One person and one crocodile thrown back again!

With the fierce reputation of the Blue Spiked Crocodile, the news that there was a Blue Spiked
Crocodile on the Desolate Wood Reef, and that it had wounded one of the disciples instantly
attracted the attention of all the disciples of Wu Kong Sword Sect. They were all very worried. If
a Blue Spiked Crocodile appeared on the Desolate Wood Reef, that meant that any one of them
could fall victim to the danger it posed.
All the disciples ran over.
Going to ask for help from Zuo Mo was their unconscious response. An adult Blue Spiked
Crocodile was a fourth-grade beast. Normally even ningmai could only skirt around it if they
encountered it. Maybe Shixiong would have a solution, set up a formation to trap it and then they
could think of a way.
But the scene in front of them stunned everyone.

In the rumors, wasnt Shixiong only skilled in formations


Seeing the person and crocodile irrationally collide together, continuously, repeatedly, robotically
crash together. The golden Shixiong charged again and again, and was bounced back again and
again before he climbed up over and over like nothing had happened, his face dusty, and he
roared as he charged again! Seeing the Blue Spiked Crocodile howling furiously, not showing
exhaustion after hitting for so many collisions.
Everyone felt fear because the Blue Spiked Crocodile was so strong. If they were in an encounter
with it but that kind of apprehension surprised no one. It was a Blue Spiked Crocodile!
But Shixiong was also this strong
Was this a delusion?
But the increasing number of wounds on the body of the Blue Spiked Crocodile reminded them
that everything happening in front of them was reality.
Every time Shixiongs sword impacted the Blue Spiked Crocodile, the vibrating ling power was
enough to make them jump, make them uncontrollably feel terror!
Is Shixiong truly just a zhuji? Chun Yu Cheng said to himself.
Standing beside him was Gongsun Cha. The clean and scholarly Gongsun Cha was strangely
excited. Doesnt look like it. Shixiong and the Blue Spiked Crocodile have gone twenty two
rounds! A zhuji definitely wouldnt be able to stand for such a long period of time, He couldnt
help but praise, It really is such beautiful brutality that one cannot help but be intoxicated!
After going straight for twenty two rounds, Zuo Mos mind was blank, instinctively climbing up,
and instinctively charging
He didnt realize that the rampaging ling power in his body was continuously scattered, gathered,
and then continuously scattered before gathering again
The countless pieces of scattered ling power spread into his limbs and organs, into his tendons
and blood. These scattered ling power went through every possible crevice. Of the enormous
amount of ling power inside Zuo Mos body, over half was dissipated into different parts of his
body.
A change was quietly occurring.

At this moment, Pu Yao suddenly raised his head in the sea of consciousness, Mountain
Physique

[i] Zuo means left, so he is going to change his name to the opposite of what it is now, right or
you. [Brian: Zuo Mo>You Mo lololol]
Translator Ramblings: Poor elders, your actions pushed Zuo Mo further on the path you
specifically wanted him to get off.
The ocean is not a safe place even if there are not people around. A footnote finally makes an
appearance after this long. I cant remember the last time there was one.

Chapter One Hundred and Seventy Seven Business
As Pu Yao muttered under his breath; Zuo Mo, who once again had been thrown to the dirt again,
detected the change in his own body!
Struggling to climb up, he didnt howl and charge like he did the previous few times.
A bucket of cold water seemed to have been thrown on Zuo Mos hot head, causing him to wake
up. His desire for battle that had been burning dissipated. He looked down at his hand. At some
unknown time a mountain shaped tattoo appeared on his palms.
What was this?

As Zuo Mo bent down to examine his palms, the hearts of the on-looking disciples stumbled a
beat.

Did Shixiong not have enough energy? The last twenty-something crashes had made their hearts
shake and pulled their hearts into the air. They didnt even dare to blink. They didnt understand
why Shixiong would use such a brutal method of fighting.
If he lost, there was no chance of survival!
The brutality of the Blue Spiked Crocodile was known by everyone present.
This time Shixiong stood up and didnt charge like he had before, everyone thought it worrisome.
When the Green Spiked Crocodile charged at Shixiong again, Shixiong was still standing
motionlessly. Their expressions all changed!
Shixiong had no more energy!
Uh-oh!
Almost all the disciples used their strongest moves, hoping they could help block for Shixiong
for a while. Countless lights flashed, ling hoes, herb cutters, skinning knives, flew into the air,
each with their own unique colour.
But they were all production xiuzhe. They usually never practised any attacks. Their panicked
and fumbling offense didnt even strike the shadow of the Blue Spiked Crocodile.
Seeing the Blue Spiked Crocodile about to ram into Shixiong, many disciples didnt bear to
watch! It was possible to see from the aftershocks of Shixiongs previous attacks just how strong
the Blue Spiked Crocodile was!
One charge was enough to break rock!
If one didnt defend, there was only one outcome to be split into pieces!
If Shixiong was not here, with their own strength, how could they survive on the Desolate Wood
Reef? Without the protection of the big formation, they were like a herd of sheep left to the
wolves.
Everyones hearts sunk!
They were finished!

At this time, Zuo Mo raised his head.


The Blue Spiked Crocodile was ten steps away from him. Its speed was so fast, it appeared as a
series of after images. The oncoming presence was so strong it was suffocating.
A ball of gold light burst out of Zuo Mos eyes as he raised his head. He suddenly raised both of
his hands, his left leg moving back into an arched position.
When he finished this move, the sharp teeth of the Blue Spike Crocodile just perfectly touched
the two palms he held up.
The palms, which now appeared to be made from dark gold, and the pale and retched smelling
crocodile teeth smashed together!
Boom!
Air swirled and shook. Ripples visible to the naked eye suddenly spread from the point the palm
and teeth collided.
The golden pair of hands did not move!
From extreme movement to extreme stillness, the blow it dealt to the bystanders could not be
rivalled. The talismans flying in the sky all stopped. Chun Yu Cheng, Gongsun Cha and the
others looked in disbelief at this picture, this extremely strange scene. They forgot to control
their talismans, not realizing that all their talismans had fallen to the ground.
Zuo Mos eyes turned entirely dark gold, the light rippling inside, cold and unfeeling.
He felt that his body was full of strength right now! Strength that he never possessed before! His
legs that were standing on the ground seemed connected with the great earth, he seemed to be
together with the earth, endless power streamed into his body.
Confidence grew strongly in him. He believed that even if there was a mountain, he could rip it
open!
The powerful charge of the angered Spiked Crocodile did not cause his hands to shake the tiniest
bit. His left hand flowed along to grab the two fangs protruding out of the Blue Spiked

Crocodile, his right hand forming a blade and suddenly slicing against the head of the Blue
Spiked Crocodile.
Pia!
The golden palm was like a sharp gold knife, but the sound of impact was as if a ten thousand
catty hammer had struck the head of the Blue Spiked Crocodile. The skin of the Blue Spiked
Crocodile, that even flying swords were unable to damage, didnt break but the flesh under its
skin vibrated like drums.
The eyes of the Blue Spiked Crocodile suddenly expanded. Then, like a pile of wet mud, it
stopped moving and dropped to the ground.
Zuo Mo carelessly threw the Blue Spiked Crocodile to one side, not even looking at it. He closed
his eyes, slowly recalling and savouring this strange and wonderful feeling.
His body was like a mountain, connected to the earth. A heavy strength passed from the earth
into his body, he felt every joint of his body was filled with strength
He slowly experienced this state, but this feeling of connectedness with the earth quickly
disappeared from his body.
Only when he couldnt feel it anymore did he open his eyes. His heart was full of longing. The
feeling of strength was really wonderful. Opening his palms, the mountain tattoos were so faint
they were almost invisible.
Zuo Mo did not have too many regrets. He knew that had just been a moment of comprehension
at a time of breakthrough. This kind of state could not last for a long time. But since he had
passed this barrier, as long as he persisted and worked hard, there would be a day when he would
reach that level.
It might have been the shock of leveling up but his joy at killing the Blue Spiked crocodile was
very faint.
Before he left, he only said, Gongsun Shidi, take care of it.

After he left, everyone still had not come out of their shock. The last scene was truly too
stunning, too fantastical. They felt their minds were a blank, not knowing what to say.
After a while, Gongsun Cha who had recovered first ran to to the corpse of the Blue Spiked
Crocodile and flipped it. After a while, he said, Way too strong! Way too strong!
Hearing this, the other people also crowded over, surrounding the corpse of the Blue Spiked
Crocodile. Even the wounded disciple did not care about his pain, running over in curiosity.
Dead! Completely dead!
A Blue Spiked Crocodile is fourth-grade! Shixiong can even kill a fourth-grade Blue Spiked
Crocodile, we dont need to worry anymore!
Worry? Have I ever worried? Anyways, isnt there also the big formation? He, right, why didnt
Shixiong use the big formation?
Ha, does Shixiong need to use the formation?

Everyone chatted, unable to disguise the excitement on their faces.


Chun Yu Cheng and Gongsun Cha had amiable relations. He saw that Gongsun Cha had a face
full of awe and couldnt resist asking, What are you seeing? Seeing Gongsun Chas expression,
he knew that this guy definitely wasnt just excited that Shixiong had killed the Blue Spiked
Crocodile.
Way too brutal! Gongsun Chas voice was excited, his gaze blazing, Ha ha, everything inside
this Blue Spiked Crocodile, all the bones, muscles, organs, they have all been shattered to
pieces!
Chun Yu Cheng jumped, No way!
Looking at the untouched outer layer of the Blue Spiked Crocodile, he could not imagine that the
inside of this being was completely shattered.
This was a fourth-grade Blue Spiked Crocodile
Gongsun Cha shook his head and commented, It is a waste of this Blue Spiked Crocodile. Only
the teeth, skin, eyes, and the spikes can be used. The organs of a Blue Spiked Crocodile are very
valuable

Chun Yu Cheng did not hear Gongsun Chas words. He had floated off in his thoughts.
Chun Yu Cheng suddenly felt the usually low-key Shixiong was full of mystery and could not be
understood. He did not know much about formations but he had heard of the [Skyring Moon
Chime Formation] before. He didnt find it surprising that Shixiong could kill Nan Ming Zi with
it, since Shixiong was able to get third in the Sword Test Conference relying on it. But when
Shixiong took out the beast pool, he completely lost all resistance. The temptation was just too
much.
The beast pool was due to the animal keeping remnant scroll, but where did this astounding
power come from?
The sect didnt have this kind of scripture!
Without knowing it, he felt awe.

When Zuo Mo went back to his residence and had just sat down, Pu Yao appeared.
What did I just do? Zuo Mo asked.
Dont know, Im not familiar with body cultivation, Pu Yao shook his head.
Zuo Mo rolled his eyes. He didnt believe it. However, if Pu Yao didnt want to say it, there was
no way around it.
Lets do some business. Are you interested?
Not interested! Zuo Mo decisively shook his head. His previous experience with Pu Yao told
him that he would only lose and never make a profit.
Dont refuse so quickly. Pu Yai said amuse fly. His two eyes narrowed into two bloody
crescents. Havent you been trying to make a sword formation? Ill teach you a technique to use
your consciousness. You can easily use the sword formation.
Oh, Zuo Mo was not persuaded.

This is a secret method. It is called the [Great Thousand Leaf Hands]. Even though your
spiritual power isnt low, your technique is terrible and fail to really express the power. The
[Great Thousand Leaf Hands] can fill in a gap.
Oh, Zuo Mo was still not persuaded.
The spirit as a vine and the leaves as hands, it can easily make many transformations. Your one
hand can do many things. When you have one thousand hands, how can anyone defend against
you? Brute strength is useless. Even you sword xiu fight with swords, no one will let you in for
close combat. That thing has no future! Your spirit is the right path! The path of Heaven is a
wheel, you cannot control it but you can move it!
You said it yourself. Yao, mo, xiuzhe, each have their own advantages.
Pu Yao paused. Then he acted as he hadnt heard Zuo Mos words.
Oh, I could also teach you [Little Thousand Leaf Hands]. The [Great Thousand Leaf Hands]
emphasize invisibility and cooperation with your formations. The [Little Thousand Leaf Hands]
has thirty-six moves. There are three that you could learn to defend yourself. Even if you are just
in zhuji, you dont need to worry about a ningmai.
Oh, Zuo Mo was not moved, Pu Yaos actions were way out of the norm!
Demons only appear when something was amiss!
This guy was the most demon-like of all demons.
Oh, If you agree, starting from today, other than the expenses for the Nether Pool, I wont take
one more jingshi.
Just like how well Zuo Mo knew Pu Yao, Pu Yao was clear about Zuo Mos weaknesses. He
gently threw out a condition that Zuo Mo could not refuse!
As expected, Zuo Mo instantly couldnt keep sitting, Really?
Really.
Then what do you need?
Your blood, Pu Yaos smile was extremely malicious.
Zuo Mos expression changed. He decisively shook his head. No!

Was he joking, if he didnt have jingshi, he could make more, if he lost his little life, he didnt
have a spare. He didnt dare to joke around with his little life.
Pu Yao saw Zuo Mos thoughts with a glance, Dont worry, it wont affect your body. You do
body cultivation, your vital blood is very abundant. It wont be much to take some blood. I dont
need much, one drop a day. One drop a day is nothing to you!
No! Zuo Mo persisted in refusing.
Translator Ramblings: Business only works when both sides want something. Pu Yao knows Zuo
Mo all too well now.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Seventy


Eight Void Pass
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter One Hundred and Seventy Eight Void Pass
Just one drop of blood. You are not willing to even pay this insignificant price? Pu Yao said,
his brow furrowing in discontent.
Insignificant? Zuo Mos voice was full of displeasure, Taking blood from me is
insignificant?
He then said decisively, This is not negotiable. Jingshi and talismans, how can they compare
with my little life?
Pu Yao propped his chin and thought momentarily before he said, How about this? I wont take
your vital blood, but you have to give me the earth energy you get everyday.
Earth energy? Zuo Mo was still for a moment but he replied quickly. In his mind, he instantly
connected it to the feeling of connectedness to the earth when he had been fighting with the Blue
Spiked Crocodile.
There was a problem!
Pu Yao was very cunning. This was his goal.
What is earth energy? He asked, knowing the result.

But Pu Yao was a yao thousands of years old. Even though Zuo Mo tried to conceal it, the
intelligent Pu Yao could find hints from the slight changes in his eyes. Pu Yao smiled, not
disguising it, Mo have always thought that the Great Earth is the mother of all things. The
power of the Great Earth is stronger than anything else. When they cultivate, they always attend
to their communication to the earth. You just have broken through to the first level of body
cultivation. This level is called Mountain Physique. The level of Mountain Physique, you can
now communicate with the Great Earth. As long as your feet are on the ground, you will have
endless strength.
Zuo Mo listened carefully.
Of course, that crowd of idiot mo doesnt understand anything profound. This method is simple
and straightforward, very easy to start. Mo also descend from wild beasts. Compared to xiuzhe,
they naturally are more connected with the earth. It is easy for them to start this method. But you,
it is very unexpected to me that you have such talent in body cultivation.
Earth energy is the power that comes from the earth? Zuo Mo asked in response.
Oh, its not incorrect if you understand it that way, Pu Yao nodded.
If I give the earth energy to you, that means my Mountain Physique would not progress? Zuo
Mo continued. He wasnt stupid.
Right, Pu Yao continued to nod, calmly admitting it.
No! Zuo Mo shook his head.
Pu Yao was puzzled, Why not? The Mountain Physique might be said to have the power of ten
thousand elephants but usually, it is very stupid. It is not even as effective as your sword
formation. Its is far from the [Great Thousand Leaf Hands] and [Little Thousand Leaf Hands].
Theres also so much jingshi, why dont you agree?
Zuo Mo smirked, I dont even know the power of the the [Great Thousand Leaf Hands] and
[Little Thousand Leaf Hands] yet, but Ive personally experience the power of the Mountain
Physique. It is a very simple choice.
Hearing this, Pu Yao was speechless. He had neglected the practicality of Zuo Mo. However, to a
Sky Yao that was thousands of years old, what problem would this pose? He quickly thought of
a solution, If thats the case, this is very simple. The [Great Thousand Leaf Hands] is split into
seven chapters. You are only able to cultivate one chapter. Of the [Little Thousand Leaf Hands],
you are only able to practice three moves. Ill let you see half of the chapter of [Great Thousand
Leaf Hands], and teach you a move of [Little Thousand Leaf Hands] for free.

Definitely free, no additional conditions, Pu Yao promised.


Okay, then give it, Zuo Mo said unconcernedly. In his heart, he had already decided, that this
time he would get one over Pu Yao. Freely learning half a chapter of [Great Thousand Leaf
Hands], and one move of [Little Thousand Leaf Hands], then he would tell Pu Yao he still
wouldnt agree, ha ha
Thinking how frustrated Pu Yao would be, he felt very good.
Pu Yao didnt waste words, throwing the first half chapter of [Great Thousand Leaf Hands] to
Zuo Mo.
Zuo Mo naturally did not refuse. As he daydreamed about Pu Yaos upcoming rage, he read the
half chapter of [Great Thousand Leaf Hands].
After a few short words, and Zuo Mos indifference flew away.
He sunk into the text.
Compared to the cryptic nature of [Embryonic Breathing Spiritual Cultivation], the half chapter
of [Great Thousand Leaf Hands] was easy to understand, like a genius asking and responding to
their own questions.
It headed straight for the main topic right at the start, first describing how to control power.
Mo used their body as a tool, continuously tempering it and their power turning inside. With their
action, they could destroy mountains and upturn oceans. Xiuzhe primarily practiced ling power,
ling power stored within their bodies would be guided by their channels and was easy to use.
Spiritual power was invisible, spread outside the body, controlled by the mind, but the difficulty
to use it was high. Even though yao were born knowing how to use their spiritual power but
there were different proficiency levels. High level yao could control the world with just a
thought.
After that was a mountain of questions regarding the consciousness.
Zuo Mos mind was deeply enchanted. Many of the questions in here were problems that had
dogged him for a long time which he could not solve.
His gaze unconsciously went down.
This author replied to each of the questions, their language was extremely simple to understand.
Zuo Mo felt as though a mist had been lifted.

The last conclusion it had was the consciousness was like a ball of mist, lacking a skeleton which
caused it to become difficult to control. Mo primarily cultivated their body, their entire skeleton,
flesh, blood, and skin were pathways, easy to control.
What spiritual power lacked was exactly this kind of pathways. They were naturally spread out.
Only some high level Yao had yao seeds that could naturally function as base pathways. That
was also why they were so powerful. The yao did not lack for geniuses. They might not have had
highly regarded bloodlines but they could create new paths.
This [Great Thousand Leaf Hands] originated as one of these new paths.
Like vine creating a net, one leaf per section, the leaf like a hand, five finger-like segments able
to do tens of thousands of changes.
Zuo Mo was drunk. He had never heard of this method before. It was very novel. Zuo Mo was
not a yao. Pu Yao had embedded a Yao seed and caused his control to increase but that was
nothing compared to the [Great Thousand Leaf Hands]. It was on a completely different level.
If he could successfully learn the [Great Thousand Leaf Hands], any formation would be able to
reach its greatest potential in his hands!
Other than that, it was also useful for forging and dan-making.
Just as Zuo Mo hurried to keep reading, he suddenly stopped, the chapter half was finished!
It was like an itch that being scratched in that sweet spot and then the other suddenly stopped. He
felt unspeakably uncomfortable. Damn it! Why did it stop there!
Zuo Mo, who had been waiting to see Pu Yao frustrated, deeply felt what frustration was!
No, he needed to control himself, he couldnt let Pu Yao win!
Zuo Mo reluctantly took away his eyes, closing them to rest for a while. He slowly calmed down.
Zuo Mos mind became clear as he calmed. This was what Pu Yao always did. If he really made
the transaction, then there probably were countless traps waiting for him ahead.
Calm, calm
He said it repeatedly to himself inside, furiously telling himself to not fall for Pu Yaos trick. This
kind of self brainwashing finally had some effect. He decided to learn the first move of [Little
Thousand Leaf Hands] before he decided.

Hearing this, Pu Yao refreshingly nodded,Okay, Ill teach you the first move.
[Little Thousand Leaf Hands] has thirty-six moves in total. The first move is one of the two
most shallow and fundamental moves. Many of the other moves will be connected somewhat
with these two moves. You have to be familiar with this one.
Seeing Pu Yao act as though he was going to personally teach it, Zuo Mos mind became alert.
Pu Yao always boasted to the sky, but Zuo Mo had never seen him personally move. He instantly
became excited now that the other was going to demonstrate his abilities.
[Great Thousand Leaf Hands] and [Little Thousand Leaf Hands] were created by an ancient Sky
Yao, the aim was to go against nature, Pu Yaos voice was full of respect, When a yao is born,
the achievements it can accomplish are mostly set. A yao seed is formed naturally and is the
source of a yaos power. This Sky Yao was born as the most normal of the little yao and became
a Sky Yao in the end. You dont really understand the yao. What the yao do is flow along with
their natural order. It was only when that Sky Yao appeared that people discovered it was
possible to go against this natural order. From then on, yao cultivation was split into with nature
and against nature. You are learning that elders moves today, do not mar that Sky Yao Elders
name.
Pu Yaos voice was stern and serious. Zuo Mo gaped inside and was full of anticipation. From Pu
Yaos explanation, it seemed that these two sets of methods had a great history!
Watch carefully.
As Pu Yao stopped talking, he raised his right hand. His right hand was long and snowy white,
perfect in form, the bright red nails slightly curved and as sharp as a knife.
He pointed with his index finger, the long crimson fingernail lightly sketching in the air.
The movements were ethereal and gentle, flowing and pleasurable to the eye.
The places that the blade like fingernail passed, a streak of blood curved and squiggled. In a
blink, a profound bloody character took form in the air.
Zuo Mos pupils suddenly shrunk!
He suddenly found that, starting from when Pu Yaos finger had started to draw. Zuo Mos own
consciousness had gone slightly out of control, as though Pu Yaos finger held a strange
magnetism. He jumped in fright, and hurriedly controlled his mind!

Even though he was trying to control his consciousness, the majority of his attention was used to
watch Pu Yao.
Pu Yaos spiritual power flooded the bloody character. The character seal suddenly became full
and glistening as though it was alive.
Zuo Mo felt as though he was suddenly jerked into an extremely strange world.
There was no noise, no change. It was like time had completely stopped. Zuo Mo felt that that
his heartbeat had stopped, his blood stopped flowing, his muscles and hair stopped moving!
An unknown amount of time later, this strange state flew away as though it was a dream.
Zuo Mo finally felt shock. In a daze, he heard Pu Yaos slow and deep voice.
The first move is called [Void Pass]. It does not halt time, it just maintains the laws that
everything originally has, but at the same moment, it refuses all new laws, so you feel as though
time has stopped. The two concepts are completely different. It only refuses change. The stronger
your spirit is, the greater your control over your consciousness will be, and the larger the area
you can control. However, if it is a strong change in the laws, you may not be able to stop it and
the technique would break.
Do not try to use it on other xiuzhe, unless the difference in cultivation is very great.
Then whats the use? Zuo Mo heard himself ask instinctively.
Hue hue, you can use it on talismans. The ling power on talismans usually is constantly flowing.
The effect of interfering with that is very outstanding.

Zuo Mo had received such a great blow that he seemed to have lost his soul in the following
days. Pu Yao did not hurry him, looking very confident.
The fifth day, he finally thought it through and came to the sea of consciousness.
Like normal, Pu Yao sat on the gravestone. His back to Zuo Mo, he still knew that Zuo Mo had
come, a smug smile at the corner of his mouth.

Zuo Mos eyes were clear. Just as he prepared to speak, he saw the gravestone under Pu Yao out
of the corner of his eyes, and suddenly stopped.
Translator Ramblings: Like any normal person Zuo Mo has the reasoning life > jingshi.
Back to the issue of time. Max lifespan of normal dacheng xiuzhe is 1000 years. Yaomo live
longer in general. However, no one is really immortal, so these great people Pu Yao mentioned
have all died a long time ago.
Pu Yao also is a wonderful negotiator in this chapter. If you search up negotiation tactics on
google, youll see what I mean.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Seventy


Nine Gravestone
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter One Hundred and Seventy Nine Gravestone
Written on the gravestone were the words, Do as he asks.
Zuo Mo had originally decided not to accept Pu Yaos tempting offer. [Great Thousand Leaf
Hands] and [Little Thousand Leaf Hands] enchanted him, but he still decided to refuse this
transaction where it looked like he would benefit disproportionately.
Pu Yao had not described the Mountain Physique in great detail, but Zuo Mo understood that the
reason he had cultivated this quickly to Mountain Physique was all due to the gravestone. The
[Vajra Profound Sutra] was not an outstanding scripture. The reason it was so effective was those
five adjusted phrases from the jade scroll.
Even though Pu Yao did not say much, he was quite scornful of the Mountain Physique in his
tone. However, Zuo Mo could easily felt the great strength of the Mountain Physique.
He had recalled that moment he broke through, savoring that feeling of strength flooding through
his body.
It was the first time he had so clearly tasted strength.
Pu Yaos terrible reputation made Zuo Mo unable to believe him. No matter how much he was
tempted by [Great Thousand Leaf Hands] and [Little Thousand Leaf Hands], it was clear that
what Pu Yao gave looked sweet but it wouldnt taste sweet when he ate it.

[Vajra Profound Sutra] didnt have anything profound and was exactly suited to Zuo Mos
appetite. The fact he could unknowingly cultivate to Mountain Physique, proved that he had
talent in this area. Rather than gamble on the untrustworthy Pu Yao, it was better to persist with
what he already had.
He didnt want to think about progression to deeper stages. He believed that if he could reach the
level he had experienced when he made the breakthrough, he would have some measure of
protection in these troubled times.
After thinking for a few days, and having finally made a decision, Zuo Mo ran to the sea of
consciousness to prepare to refuse Pu Yao. But to his shock, he saw the words floating on the
gravestone.
A strange feeling rose inside Zuo Mo. It was like the gravestone under Pu Yaos ass was alive.
This idea was truly too absurd, so absurd that even Zuo Mo felt that he had thought too much
these past days, and was having a delusion.
The words on the gravestone were large and eye-catching.
It wasnt a delusion!
How about it? Pu Yaos unconcerned voice suddenly sounded next to Zuo Mos ear.
Zuo Mos heart jumped. He glanced and saw the words on the gravestone grow faint. In a blink,
the eye-catching words had disappeared.
Was this gravestone really alive?
Zuo Mo thought and brushed off, En, Ive thought for a long time.
If this gravestone was really alive, then
Suddenly, he recalled when he had first met Pu Yao and how he fell into that unconscious state.
When he had been muddled, he had heard an ancient and stern voice. He had assumed that it was
Pu Yao. Thinking about it now, that voice was stern and authoritative, and was completely
different from Pu Yaos seductive and enchanting mannerisms. He had overlooked this
discrepancy before because there was no one except Pu Yao in his sea of consciousness.
When the [Vajra Profound Sutra] had appeared on the gravestone last time, it hadnt caused him
to question his assumption.
Do as he asks.

These words, other than living beings with brains, no matter if it was the most outstanding
talisman, it could not say such words.
He felt the gravestone was alive.
Zuo Mos mind was furiously moving. Naturally, his speech could not keep up. This made him
look especially dull today.

Pu Yao furrowed his brows, And then?


Zuo Mo instinctively answered, I still have to think. He ignored Pu Yao, sitting down on the
ground. In any case, the words on the gravestone had already disappeared.
Pu Yao was slightly surprised. If Zuo Mo entered the sea of consciousness, he should have
decided. Had he just decided to change his mind now? He had interacted with Zuo Mo for a long
time. Zuo Mo might be hesitant sometimes, but after he made a decision, he would never waver.
The other was so stubborn and vicious, even he would gape.
Why did he suddenly hesitate now?
However, he would never have thought in his wildest dreams the gravestone under his bottom
had gotten one over him.

Zuo Mo decided to think.


The gravestone should be alive, no, maybe there was something alive under the gravestone.
Thinking about it now, the [Vajra Profound Sutra] had appeared on the gravestone when Pu Yao
had been meditating. This time, the gravestone was opposing Pu Yao right in front of him.

Did the gravestone and Pu Yao have animosity?


Pu Yao usually sat on the gravestone. Previously, Zuo Mo had felt that Pu Yao was an undertaker.
Thinking about it now, was more like Pu Yao was guarding it. Was there a powerful enemy
sealed under the gravestone, and Pu Yao was so worried he personally guarded it?
This guess was very rational. Zuo Mo felt, that even if it wasnt any great hatred between them,
the relationship between Pu Yao and the gravestone was definitely not good. Otherwise, the
gravestone wouldnt have opposed Pu Yao twice.
Thinking through this, Zuo Mo suddenly understood slightly what Pu Yaos aims were.
Pu Yao needed the earth energy for something he did not state. Looking at it now, Pu Yao had
offered this transaction directly for the Mountain Physique that Zuo Mo had just achieved.
Zuo Mo suddenly didnt get it again.
If Pu Yao and the gravestone really didnt have good relations, then Pu Yao could just stop him
from practicing [Vajra Profound Sutra]. However, Pu Yao did not prohibit him from practicing
[Vajra Profound Sutra]. If Pu Yao was targeting Zuo Mos Mountain Physique, he had enough
skill and methods to just take that.
Pu Yao wasnt a generous person. This person always wanted to get even. Whoever he held a
grudge against, would quickly feel retribution from Pu Yaos machinations. Pu Yao would not let
his enemies go, and give them time to recuperate.
As to Zuo Mo himself, he didnt feel he could affect Pu Yao in any way between the two
enemies.
The deeper he thought, the more puzzled Zuo Mo felt.
He threw away thinking about the relationship between Pu Yao and the gravestone. What he
needed to consider was which choice was most beneficial for him. Pu Yaos promises were not
trustworthy in Zuo Mos mind. Compared to that, he was more willing to believe the gravestone.
The benefits from the gravestones [Vajra Profound Sutra] were real and tangible.
There was no spectacular description, but true power and that was more likely to persuade Zuo
Mo.
If he thought of Pu Yao and the gravestone as two people, his past experiences with Pu Yao were
terrible, but his experience with the gravestone had been very good.

Zuo Mo felt dejected. This clearly was going to slow down his body cultivation progress so why
did the gravestone want him to agree? Was there
Suddenly, an idea appeared in his mind, did the gravestone have a solution?
Zuo Mo suddenly became uplifted, it was possible! Otherwise, the gravestone certainly wouldnt
want him to agree to Pu Yaos transaction. If the gravestone was not concerned with his
cultivation progress, it wouldnt have passed him [Vajra Profound Sutra] in the first place.
Zuo Mo believed that any action had an aim.
The gravestone had its own aims in passing on the [Vajra Profound Sutra], but he did not know it
at the moment. But since it had a goal, then it wouldnt easily let its previous efforts go to waste.
Otherwise there would have been no reason to pass onto him the [Vajra Profound Sutra].
If the gravestone had just taught him out of sheer pleasure, even Zuo Mo would not believe it.
He couldnt guess the goal, but Zuo Mo could judge what was more beneficial to him.
He decided to listen to the gravestone. Having made his decision, he started to think how the
gravestone would give the solution. Thinking of the [Vajra Profound Sutra] and the words that
had floated there, he decided to visit the sea of consciousness more frequently in the future.
After thinking it through, Zuo Mo stood and walked in front of Pu Yao.
En. Ive thought it through. Lets make the transaction!
Your choice is very intelligent, Pu Yaos cold blade-like lips curved slightly.
Zuo Mos caught a glimpse of this smirk and felt that Pu Yaos smile carried some unusual
content, as though it proved some of his speculations.
The first chapter of [Great Thousand Leaf Hands] and the first three moves of [Little Thousand
Leaf Hands] in his hands, Zuo Mo started to study them as though he was starving.
[Embryonic Breathing Spiritual Cultivation] was cryptic and he still had barely progressed even
now. The two spells had their own places that were hard to understand, but they were much
easier compared to [Embryonic Breathing Spiritual Cultivation]. What was most surprising to
Zuo Mo was that Pu Yao was willing to personally teach [Little Thousand Leaf Hands].

He took the chance to ask Pu Yao for clarification regarding the problems he encountered. He
hadnt expected that Pu Yao to have changed his frugal attitude, and freely replied, and it could
even be considered, very patiently. Zuo Mo was amazed.
Such a good chance, if he didnt use it fully, then he was an idiot. Zuo Mo took the chance to go
through everything he was usually puzzled by.
After going through it all, he felt it was worth it even if there wasnt the two spells!
This set of spells that yao had about the spirit was more profound and wondrous than any jade
scroll that he had ever read. It was like the difference between the cloud and earth.
But making a transaction with Pu Yao meant one could never just simply enjoy. Accompanying it
was always the pain of the flesh.
Under Pu Yaos guidance, he quickly learned how to absorb earth energy from the ground. The
earth energy of body cultivation and the [Art of Earth Energy] that Zuo Mo cultivated shared the
same name, but the two were completely different.
The earth energy of [Art of Earth Energy] was the energy nurtured from the soil, but the earth
energy that Zuo Mo took in right now was a kind of weighty and concentrated power. The only
similarity between the two was they were both nurturing and heavy. But what the [Art of Earth
Energy] nurtured was ling plants, and what the earth energy of body cultivation nurtured was his
body of flesh.
An attentive Zuo Mo found two reasons he could absorb earth energy. One was his body
cultivation had reached Mountain Physique. The other reason was the mo matrix.
The mo matrix that Pu Yao had carved onto Zuo Mos body was wondrous in allowing his body
to communicate with the earth.
He somewhat understood now why mo would primarily cultivate their body. It was because they
were born with a mo matrix, and were the children of the earth.
When he was absorbing earth energy, it was so comfortable that he was intoxicated. Little by
little, concentrated strength slowly moved into his body from his legs, nurturing every part of his
body. He could feel the strength increasing in his body, a tranquility that he never felt before
which was addicting.
But the earth energy that he took in would be drawn out by Pu Yao in an instant, in a great form
of torture!

When the strength inside his body was extracted, his mind would blank for a short moment.
When Zuo Mos mind came back, weakness and the lack of strength would make him feel that he
had an incurable disease. A strong sense of dizziness and nausea destroyed his appetite and his
interest in anything else
Each time Pu Yao drew out the earth energy, he only had one thought, to faint and sleep.
However, he didnt sleep. He needed to cultivate.
Translator Ramblings: Zuo Mo finally realizes that the population in his consciousness is one
more than expected. This chapter breaks down Zuo Mos thinking which is super practical. The
gravestone and Pu both have credit scores with Zuo Mo, and Pu has a terrible one.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Eighty


[Great Thousand Leaf Hands]
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, cactuar0, and
warlord212.
Chapter One Hundred and Eighty [Great Thousand Leaf Hands]
What Zuo Mo cultivated first was the [Great Thousand Leaf Hands].
The second half of the first chapter of [Great Thousand Leaf Hands] explained how to form the
great thousand leaf hands. This Sky Yao was an amazing genius. He used the process of a plant
growing to complete his spell.
The first step of [Great Thousand Leaf Hands] was to gather up the spirit that was scattered. This
was not a problem to Zuo Mo, he easily accomplished it.
Next was to forge the gathered consciousness into seeds. This step was crucial. If one could
not form seeds, they could not practice [Great Thousand Leaf Hands].
The steps to forge seeds seemed to be very complicated, but when Zuo Mo finished reading, a
strange feeling arose.
This was the dan nurturing water method!
The Moisture Dan hadnt brought much jingshi to Zuo Mo, but he had studied the water method.
The wondrous process of the dan forming had left a deep impression on him, so when he saw the
process of the seed forming, he instantly found similarities.

He didnt know if this Sky Yao knew of the water method, but to have created such an amazing
set of spells and to use a dan-making method with spiritual power, he was in awe of the elder.
Thinking about it, he twisted his mouth.
Pu Yao said he was a Sky Yao, but they were both Sky Yao so why was the difference so great?
Pu Yao had taken out many kinds of spells, but he had never heard the other say that he had
created any of them. Even more importantly, Zuo Mo didnt think Pu Yao behaved like a Sky
Yao. He was very suspicious that Pu Yaos Sky Yao identity was just him boasting.
Knowing the water method, Zuo Mo didnt have much trouble in forging the seed.
A few hours later, a seed had been formed.
This seed that Zuo Mo had gathered all his consciousness into was the size of a soybean,
expanding and contracting as though it was breathing.
The most difficult part did not stop Zuo Mo. As long as he persisted in practicing this set of
spells daily, after ten days, this seed would germinate.
However, since all of his consciousness had been used to create this seed, it was like his
consciousness had disappeared. This caused Zuo Mo, who had relied on using his consciousness
constantly, to feel extremely awkward.
Without his consciousness, Zuo Mo could not make dan, could not forge, but what made him
jump in fright was that he could not use the [Skyring Moon Chime Formation].
Damn it!
He had made such a fatal mistake. It seemed that he had been too proud these past days.
Please, no one come in these next ten days.
To not cause terror in other disciples, he acted normally on the surface.
Gongsun Cha delivered a pile of materials to him, all of it taken from the body of the Blue
Spiked Crocodile that Zuo Mo had killed. What was most attention-catching among the items
was the hide of the Blue Spiked Crocodile and the seven blue spikes. The hide was pristine. It
was rare to see such a perfect Blue Spiked Crocodile skin. The hide of a Blue Spiked Crocodile
was outstanding material to make ling armor and the price on the market was very high.
What Zuo Mo liked the most was the seven blue spikes.

The seven blue spikes were rare water element materials, and they came from the same Blue
Spiked Crocodile, which made them very appropriate to forge into a flying sword.
Zuo Mos set of five sword essence swords needed five flying sword with completely different
attributes. It would take luck to gather all five.
He decided to forge the seven blue spikes into a set of flying swords suitable for him to use now.
But when he thought that his consciousness was completely used in creating the seed, Zuo Mo
could only grimace.

Ten days later.


Zuo Mo focused all his attention on growing the seed using the chant from the [Great
Thousand Leaf Hands]. After ten days of continuous change, the seed was now the size of a
goose egg, its outer shell a glowing porcelain. It was possible to see a curled sprout inside.
Suddenly, Zuo Mo detected the consciousness inside the egg moving. The outer layer of the
seed broke. The outer layer was composed of consciousness and naturally would not have
made a sound, but to Zuo Mo it was like thunder.
His body seemed to be struck by lightning as it vibrated.
A tender sprout with a single leaf reached out of the broken shell.
The leaf of the tender sprout was extremely small. It appeared like the palm of a person, with all
five fingers.
Everything in the surroundings flooded in clearly. This feeling of everything being in his grasp
instantly made Zuo Mo feel secure.
Consciousness!
Without him detecting it, Zuo Mo found, to his shock, that his reliance on his consciousness had
reached such a shocking step. The consciousness seemed much weaker than before, but as long

as he had his consciousness, he could activate the [Skyring Moon Chime Formation] and he
could guarantee his safety to some degree.
Finally calming down, Zuo Mo started to study his completely transformed consciousness.
His spiritual power had all turned into this little tender sprout. The little hand that was as round
and tender as an infants was the only leaf on the sprout, but it was of great joy to Zuo Mo.
His mind moved and the leaf rippled, the five leaf fingers shaking. Quickly, Zuo Mo discovered
the trick to manipulating the leaf fingers. The five fingers on the leaf became even more nimble.
Zuo Mo was even able to control the five fingers on the leaf hand to do the finger motions of all
kinds of spells. There was no sound when the leaf hand made the motions, the spiritual power
and the ling power was completely different.
However, if he used finger motions with the leaf hand, its nimbleness far surpassed Zuo Mos
own finger movements. He could control the leaf hand to complete many highly difficult and
almost impossible finger movements. If he used his own fingers, he definitely could not do them.
The five fingers on the leaf hands could lengthen and change shape according to his will. Zuo
Mo marveled at it.
Zuo Mo played with the leaf hand until he was exhausted mentally. When he stopped, he noticed
something he had missed before. The difficulty of controlling the leaf hand had become much
easier than before. He wouldnt dare to even think about doing such delicate changes before.
The area covered by his consciousness was much smaller than before. In the beginning, he had
thought that his consciousness had weakened, but he understood after studying the leaf hand. At
the moment, the root of the leaf hand was still inside the seed.
The great majority of his spiritual power was still in the goose egg sized seed. The amount of
consciousness that had transformed into the sprout was only a small minority. If all the
consciousness inside the seed turned to leaf hands, his consciousness would return to the same
level as before. The broken seed was like soil right now, the leaf hand taking its nutrients from
it to grow.
In the span of one day, the tender leaf hand sprout grew a little bigger.
When all of his consciousness turned to leaf hands, the speed the leaf hand grew would then be
affected by the rate his spiritual power grew.

Zuo Mo had a direct measure of the benefits that the [Great Thousand Leaf Hands] gave him.
Even though the area covered by his consciousness was much smaller than before, but the clarity
of the area covered by his consciousness was much higher.
This benefit had a direct connection to dan-making and forging.
Zuo Mos control of fire had increased to another level. He had a strong impulse to forge a flying
sword now, but he suppressed it. His consciousness had not recovered to its peak.
The growth of the leaf hand was not fast, but it was steady. Zuo Mo wasnt in a hurry, he had
many things to do.
Like practicing the first three moves of [Little Thousand Leaf Hands].
Zuo Mo had already learned the first three moves. Pu Yao teaching him personally did have some
effect. These three moves were either exquisite or powerful so he naturally would not let up, and
continuously practiced them. He needed to practice them to the point that he could execute them
with a thought.
However, he was far from that step.
What he felt strange was the light at his fingertip when he drew the characters was a faint white
light, and not the bloody red of Pu Yao. However, the effect of the completed move did not
change. Pu Yao could not find a reason for this, so Zuo Mo, seeing it was not detrimental to
casting the spell, threw it to one side.
Zuo Mo still had not discovered the relation between this [Little Thousand Leaf Hands] and the
leaf hands.

It was night, the moonlight streaming down.


A completely golden figure was at the edge of the black lake, his feet bare, and his legs apart.
Zuo Mo was using [Vajra Profound Sutra]. Small strands of earth energy burrowed into his body
through the soles of his feet. The earth energy was thin and felt cold. As it spread through his
body, he felt unspeakably pleasurable. As the threads of earth energy entered his body, his

muscles became even more strong and hard. Zuo Mos body was filled with silence and vitality,
just like the great earth.
He opened his eyes. Glancing at his palms, a faint mountain peak tattoo could be seen.
He shook his head. When Pu Yao sucked away the earth energy from his body, the mountain
peak tattoo would once again disappear.
Each day, he had to go through this. He had naturally found some trends. The mountain peak
tattoo on his palms should be the symbol of the mountain physique. The stronger the body, the
richer the earth energy in the body, the clearer it would be. Each time after he absorbed earth
energy was the time it was most clear.
A suction suddenly appeared inside his body. The earth energy that had just spread through his
body was like a school of fishes that was attracted by bait, moving through every one of Zuo
Mos muscles and bones.
An expression of pain came into Zuo Mos eyes.
It didnt need his control, his body instinctively rebelled, resisting the departure of the earth
energy. It wanted to keep the earth energy, but the suction was so powerful that the earth energy
continuously gathered there.
Pu Yao took all the earth energy inside his body.
Weakness flooded in, but he could not faint because of the pain. His body felt like it was being
pricked by needles all over, each muscle and bone was in pain.
Zuo Mo understood the reason.
Absorbing earth energy, and then having Pu Yao drawing it away. In the entire process, Zuo Mos
body was like a man that had just gotten a treasure after struggle, but suddenly was robbed. It
instinctively would defend and try to take it back. But since the enemy was too strong, in the
conflict, his body was wounded.
He had to go through this process daily. The pain could be imagined.
It was torture!
The damned gravestone! Each time, Zuo Mo gritted his teeth as he bore the pain. At the same
time, he repeatedly cursed the damned gravestone!

In this period of time, he would run to the sea of consciousness when he had the free time.
The result was that the gravestone didnt take any action after the words had popped up.
Listening to the words, Zuo Mo, who had been trusting of the gravestone, was furious. He finally
understood. He had trusted the wrong person!
No, he had trusted the wrong stele!
Translator Ramblings: No one mentioned it so Im really curious. Did anyone else think that the
Void Pass Pu Yao showed Zuo Mo seem like what he used against the five jindan a long time ago
in Dong Fu?
Also, the Sky Yao who made the Thousand Leaf yao arts would have been before the water
method for dan-making was invented. Zuo Mo doesnt know enough history for these things.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Eighty One


Familiar Guests

cactuar0.
Chapter One Hundred and Eighty One Familiar Guests
Zuo Mos former habit had been to listen to the sound tablet every day. After arriving in Desolate
Wood Reef, he would open the sound tablet whenever he was idle. This was not limited to just
him. All the people on the Desolate Wood Reef were the same. Other than the flying sword
messages the elders from the sect sent them, this was the only way they could communicate with
the outside world. Even with Zuo Mos cultivation,he was unable to send flying sword messages
to the sect over such a long distance.
Every day, they could hear the bad news. It was like the yaomo had suddenly became strong and
peerless, the xiuzhe were not a match for them and continuously lost. Each time he heard this
kind of bad news, Zuo Mo felt depressed. Theoretically, xiuzhe had been hunting yao for so
many years in Bloody Sky Metropolis Jie. While the yaomo were like the livestock being raised
in the xiuzhes back yard, but why did the xiuzhe suddenly become so weak?
He went to the lava lake. Inside the fire formation, a scorching flame covered the copper hoop
and silently burned. After a long period of tempering, the copper hoop had become completely
red like a piece of fire jade.

Carefully inspecting the fire formation, Zuo Mos mood became slightly better. If it was
tempered for a bit more time, this copper hoop would completely transform. He anticipated just
how powerful this copper hoop would be after it was done tempering.
After adding new jingshi to the fire formation, he climbed back out.
The sunlight landed on his body and warmed him, it was so comfortable he wanted to groan.
Now that everything on the Desolate Wood Reef had settled into a routine, other than having to
endure the pain of earth energy every day, he didnt have any other frustrations.
The Desolate Wood Reef might be isolated, but compared to the endless conflict inside the sect,
it was paradise.
Suddenly, he raised his head. Several black dots appeared on the horizon, heading at astonishing
speed towards the Desolate Wood Reef.
Xiuzhe!
Zuo Mos heart shook slightly, but compared to the restlessness of the past, he was much more
composed. With the [Skyring Moon Chime Formation], even though his consciousness had not
completely turned to leaf hands, but the leaf hands were so powerful that just the leaf hand of
half his consciousness was more powerful in controlling the [Skyring Moon Chime Formation]
than before.
As long as the xiuzhe that were coming were not jindan, he was not afraid.
Three xiuzhe had come.
Seeing them speed over, Zuo Mos heart was slightly shocked. The three were not weak.
However, when the three people flew close, he found to his surprise that he knew them. The
three people were the xiuzhe that had found him previously to process the Inky Black Lotus
Seed.
When the three came close to the Desolate Wood Reef, they had surprised expressions when they
saw Zuo Mo. The three quickly landed.
Didnt think we would encounter Brother Zuo here, it really is fate! The red-robed man
laughed forthrightly, his composure was extremely friendly. The other two tightly followed the
red-robed man.

Last time, having ran into trouble with them, Zuo Mo knew they were not good people. In his
heart he was wary. However, with his zombie face, no one could see what he was thinking. With
Wu Kong Sword Sect behind him as support, and the island having the big formation, he was
very confident.
Ha ha, yes, yes, Zuo Mo bowed with folded hands.
If it had been in the past, the three would have been furious at this attitude, but Zuo Mos present
status compared to the past was like the difference between heaven and earth. The status of Wu
Kong Sword Sect was rising in Sky Moon Jie. No one dared to provoke this battle-crazy sect,
and Zuo Mo was also a core disciple of Wu Kong Sword Sect.
The red-robed man rejoiced that he had made amends last time, so their relationship wasnt too
terrible. Otherwise, they would have a hard time today. He did not underestimate Zuo Mo due to
his zhuji cultivation. Putting aside Wu Kong Sword Sect, Zuo Mo alone was a very dangerous
entity.
He naturally understood a bit about the [Skyring Moon Chime Formation] after having possessed
the jade scroll for so long. When he saw Zuo Mo set up the formation in the Great Pine Pavilion,
his shock had been indescribable. When he flew near Desolate Wood Reef and saw Zuo Mo, he
understood that Zuo Mo definitely had put a formation over the island.
However, this person was very experienced. He could bow with the circumstances and was
extremely perceptive. He smiled and said, Us three brothers wish to use your place to rest and
recover for a few days. This is just a token of our appreciation, Brother Zuo Mo, dont refuse.
The red-robed male handed over a small bag of jingshi. Zuo Mo slightly bounced it, and was
very satisfied.
Three hundred pieces of third-grade jingshi. As expected, this xiuzhe was good with handling
relationships.
Thats fine. You can pick any residence here. If you need anything, just ask this little brother,
Zuo Mo instantly became much warmer.
The red-robed male released a breath inside. It was easy now that Zuo Mo was willing to take
their jingshi. What he was most worried about was that Zuo Mo held a grudge over the incident
of the Inky Black Lotus Seed. So before Zuo Mo had said anything, he had proactively and
generously made the first move.
Looking at it now, he was correct in doing so.

Sorry for the disturbance!


Right, Ive also put a formation on this island. Please do not move around carelessly, Zuo Mo
reminded them.
The red-robed man thought, as expected. His mouth responded, Many thanks for the reminder,
Brother Zuo.
Zuo Mo didnt waste words, he turned and left.

When Zuo Mo disappeared, the three finally relaxed.


The snarling brawny man snorted coldly, look at him act like that, I want to grind him to meat
paste!
Is this place safe? The hawk nosed man looked at his leader.
Well rest here for a day and leave. Then go to Little Mountain Jie, The red-robed man said
decisively.
I The snarling brawny man was still going on.
The red-robed man glared at him, and interrupted, Dont waste words. Quickly meditate. We
dont have much time.
The brawny man docilely sat and meditated.

Taking in three hundred pieces of third-grade jingshi, Zuo Mo felt very good. Business with no
cost and all profit was really pleasurable. He recalled that the three seemed quite rushed, as
though they wanted to leave quickly.

He had previously received the jade scroll for the [Skyring Moon Chime Formation]. and had
also gotten a [Gold Forging Chapter Remnant]. The gold method was more obscure; adding on
that it was just a remnant scroll, Zuo Mo didnt put any effort in studying it.
But one point was very clear, these three were clearly quite wealthy.
Zuo Mo thought about making a transaction. He had a pretty good amount of Golden Crow Fire
on his hands and naturally wanted to sell it. However, the Desolate Wood Reef was really too
isolated. He would have to fly for a long time to reach the nearest town. He was just a zhuji. If
the news got out that he possessed Golden Crow Fire, he would be instantly surrounded and
attacked if he stepped out of the Desolate Wood Reef.
The best and safest way was to attract people to come to him.
As long as he was on the Desolate Wood Reef, Zuo Mo was not afraid of any ningmai. He didnt
need to worry, no matter how big the attack force was. No power would actively challenge a
battle-crazy sect like Wu Kong Sword Sect. What was most worrisome was the small xiuzhe
groups of two or three people. They were the primary bandits and robbers. After killing and
stealing, they would hide in a place. Once the noise was over, they would come out.
If he had to attract people to come such a long way to such an isolated place, he needed to have
something to attract them. Golden Crow Fire would be one of those things.
What Zuo Mo needed to do first was pass the news out so other people knew they could buy
Golden Crow Fire at Desolate Wood Reef.
His first target would be these three people.

The red-robed male who had been meditating suddenly opened his eyes, a wary expression on
his face. The other two quickly opened their eyes.
Seeing the intruder was Zuo Mo, the wariness in their eyes lessened slightly.
Sorry to disturb everyones rest, Zuo Mo brashly sat down, no hint of apology in his voice.

Its nothing, The red-robed male forced a smile, What does Brother Zuo need to come so late
in the night?
Zuo Mo didnt waste words, heading straight for the topic,This little brother has something
good. Does everyone have an interest?
The red-robed male first stilled, and then gave an interested expression, Oh, something that
Brother Zuo finds good, it must not be ordinary.
Zuo Mo handed over a jade box, Everyone, take a look.
The red-robed man took the mini box and praised, Such a fine jade box. Oh, such exquisite
formations on here, I have great expectations for what is in the box!
He opened the jade box.
Inside the jade box, a golden flame silently burned as it floated inside the box.
Golden Crow Fire! The red-robed man shouted, the expressions of the two behind him
changing as well.
The other two stared fixedly at the Golden Crow Fire in the box, the heat and desire not
disguised at all. The red-robed male stared dazedly at the Golden Crow Fire inside the jade box.
After a beat, he sighed, Brother Zuo is really skilled! I heard before that the Golden Crow Pill
was made by Brother Zuo. I didnt think that Brother Zuo could also make such a pure Golden
Crow Fire seed. Such skill is really terrifying!
Seeing the other did not show signs of wanting to attack, Zuo Mos heart slightly eased. The aura
of murder that faintly exuded from the three people suggested that they were frequently involved
in shady transactions. Zuo Mo had been very worried that their greed would get the best of
them. Even though he had been on guard, there was still danger if the three attacked together.
He didnt know but in this moment, countless thoughts had turned inside the red-robed mans
mind. Dont underestimate such a little bit of Golden Crow Fire. It had extremely high value. If
one had something to exchange it for, the price wouldnt be just a little bit. However, when he
saw Zuo Mo was so serene, he felt that Zuo Mo had measures in place.
The red-robed male repeatedly weighed his options and pushed down his greed. The three knew
each other very well. Leader didnt speak, so the other two knew that Leader didnt want to
attack, so they had to control the killing intent inside.
You are too complimentary. Are you three interested? Zuo Mo said.

The red-robed male said, How about a trade? This one doesnt have much jingshi.
Zuo Mo instantly became alert and said, No problem. What he hoped for the most was to trade
for something useful to him. On a place like the Desolate Wood Reef where even the birds didnt
shit, there was nowhere to spend jingshi. It was better to trade for something he could use.
The red-robed male took out a pile of items for Zuo Mo to choose from.
Trading was a frequent transaction type between xiuzhe. Because there was no third party, what
the transaction process tested was the knowledge of both sides and the price they had inside.
The red-robed male had taken out a variety of items. There were talismans, materials, and jade
scrolls. The other two also took out and displayed what they had.
The three of them were very wealthy. Zuo Mos eyes instantly reddened, but his heart jumped.
This pile of items was of great variety, and definitely not from one individual. He couldnt help
but think about those xiuzhe that killed for treasure. The number of xiuzhe whose lives were
ended by the hands of these three definitely wouldnt be low.
Zuo Mo refocused and started to pick.
Translator Ramblings: The cast can tell you which chapters these people first showed up in. Zuo
Mos first customers are here.
Not all xiuzhe can tell whether Zuo Mo is performing body cultivation or if he is a mo, especially
since Zuo Mo doesnt look like any kind of mo at this time. He just seems to have a really strong
body. Also, the people he encounters now have never seen yaomo before so they dont really
know what yaomo are like, just like Zuo Mo thinking of the yaomo as evil and monstrous back at
the beginning of the story. On the other hand, Pu Yao has turned Zuo Mo into a bit of a
Frankensteins monster.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Eighty Two


Discovery!
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter One Hundred and Eighty Two Discovery!
Flipping through the talismans and materials in front of him, Zuo Mo rejoiced at his decision.

These three really had a lot of good items!


There were multiple fourth-grade materials, two or three fourth-grade talismans. The rest were
things they didnt know the use of.
Zuo Mo wanted to take them all, but that was just a fantasy. Golden Crow Fire was something
good, but what he was offered was also good.
In the end, Zuo Mo picked three items.
The first was a paper seal soldier. Zuo Mo had a deep impression of the seal soldier from last
time, the brute power and astounding presence it had. When he found a seal soldier in the pile, he
was very happy.
The grade of this seal soldier was higher than the one before. It should be third-grade. Zuo Mo
had only used a seal soldier once; he didnt understand very much about it, and could only make
a general judgement.
On the three-finger wide snowy white paper, the cinnabar seals were curving like earthworms,
little bits of gold contained within the bright red cinnabar. The seals felt as though they were
burned onto the paper.
Holding it on his hand, it was very heavy as though it wasnt made of paper but more like a piece
of metal, strong yet flexible.
The other was a fourth-grade Blue Icicle Crystal. This Blue Ice Crystal was of outstanding
quality, entirely transparent without an impurity, forming a perfect icicle. When he took it out, a
mist floated around the Blue Icicle Crystal.
Zuo Mo had to channel ling power to hold this Blue Icicle Crystal. If he did not channel ling
power to his palm, his hand would have been frozen by the crystal.
Seeing such an outstanding Blue Icicle Crystal, the first thought in Zuo Mos mind was his five
essence set of swords. If he forged this into a flying sword, it would be perfect for Xin Yan
Shibos Ice Dragon sword essence.
The last was a talisman. When the three saw Zuo Mo pick this talisman, they all had shocked
expressions.
It was a stick shaped talisman that was severely damaged. It looked as though it should have four
panels, but two of the panels were broken.

None of the three recognized this talisman, they didnt even know where they had gotten the
stick from. Zuo Mo was willing to use a valuable choice to pick this broken stick, then it wasnt
something ordinary.
They were clear about that, but they didnt recognize it, so it wasnt useful in their hands. Also,
no matter how good this talisman was, it was damaged, how good could it be?
They were willing to trade it.
The two sides easily made the transaction. Zuo Mo gave the Golden Crow Fire with the minibox
to the other. The three all had happy expressions. Even though it was three for one, but they felt
it was worth it.
The Golden Crow Fire was one of the higher quality fourth-grade fire seeds. Fire seeds were rare
in the first place. This fire might be a tiny flame, and was weak, but it was pure Golden Crow
Fire. As soon as it was imprinted, it could form a fire seed inside the body. While the Blue Icicle
Crystal was also fourth-grade and it was perfect, but it still was not on the same level as this little
ball of Golden Crow Fire.
But Zuo Mo did not lose out.
It was very hard to buy a third-grade seal soldier on the market. There were not many seal xiu in
Sky Moon Jie. Seal soldiers could save lives. A second-grade seal soldier could face a ningmai
for a short amount of time.
What about a third-grade seal soldier? Zuo Mo couldnt help but feel anticipation.
No matter if it was the third-grade seal soldier, or the perfect Blue Icicle Crystal, they were all
extraordinary treasures. But what Zuo Mo put the most importance on was the damaged stick.
The three opposite him did not know it, but Zuo Mo recognized it.
It was not a stick, but a damaged four-flanged Vajra Gada.[i] It was a talisman that Dhyana xiu
used. True Dhyana were rare in Sky Moon Jie. Zuo Mo was very curious where they got a
dhyana talisman from.
Dhyana emphasized cultivating the body and forming abhinna. This was the first time Zuo Mo
saw a dhyana talisman. However, he didnt pick this four-flanged Vajra Gada out of curiosity but
because he had discovered something else.

His consciousness had become multiple times more sensitive as the leaf hand formed. When his
consciousness had swept across this four-flanged Vajra Gada, he had suddenly felt a hidden
power come out of the gada!
This power was not strong, it could be considered weak. It didnt give off any pressure, was a
peaceful but thick. This weak, harmless power, almost caused Zuo Mo to lose his control of his
consciousness.
How could Zuo Mo not feel shock?
His own spirit was much stronger than normal ningmai. His mentality was as strong as stone,
unable to be shaken. Now that he had the leaf hand, in terms of strength, wasnt he multiple
times stronger than before?
It wasnt normal!
In an instant, Zuo Mo understood the value of this four-flanged Vajra Gada! He did not hesitate
and picked it.
Both sides were happy.

The next morning, the three bid farewell to Zuo Mo very early and flew towards the jie river.
Zuo Mo naturally wouldnt speak of letting them stay longer, but felt it strange. These three still
clearly seemed quite tired, and had not completely recovered. Why were they in such a hurry to
leave?
Crossing the jie river was not an easy matter.
Even though he was puzzled, Zuo Mo did not have the time to care. He wanted them to leave at
soon as possible so he could stop worrying and cultivate.
The present Desolate Wood Reef was like a paradise. The incident of the Blue Spiked Crocodile
appearing and wounding someone reminded Zuo Mo, that he may have set down an
unprecedentedly large Skyring Moon Chime Formation, but the Desolate Wood Reef wasnt
small, and there naturally were many holes.

Since he had discovered this, it was easy to deal with. He only needed to add some child
formations to the Skyring Moon Chime Formation and it would seal the holes. Luckily, the main
skeleton had already been built so the rest progressed quickly.
After being fixed up, the Desolate Wood Reef could be considered impregnable. Zuo Mo had not
spared any of the beaches. After the incident with the Blue Spiked Crocodile, no other ling beast
had managed to get into the island.
Gongsun Cha became the most idle person. There were no beasts for him to work on. He was
very depressed.
Zuo Mo placed heavy importance on this shidi that had been certified for a jade medal and had
comforted him.
After making rounds, it was time to absorb earth energy for the day.
Just having comforted Gongsun Cha, Zuo Mo needed to directly face an even harsher reality.

Days were passing so slowly! Zuo Mo howled, feeling as though each day was a year.
Come! Pu Yao raised his chin, smiling seductively and smugly.
Zuo Mo asked the question he would ask every day, How many days left?
Soon, soon! Pu Yao insincerely comforted him.
Zuo Mos body was dark gold, his pants rolled up and his bare feet struck deep in the soil.
Threads of weak earth energy entered his body and flowed around, continuously permeating his
muscles and bones.
It was as though he was soaking in the water, unspeakably comfortable.
But Zuo Mo did not dare to relax. His body was as tense as copper wire, nervous to the extreme.
Countless previous experiences taught him if he allowed himself to sink into this comfortable
state, the torture that would come next would became even harder and more painful to bear.

The suddenly discrepancy would destroy a person. Zuo Mos spirit had almost been wounded
multiple times.
After that, he didnt dare to let himself sink deeply into this pleasurable feeling.
He was like a criminal that knew that he was going to his execution soon. He had delicious food
in front of him, but it could have been cardboard for all he cared.
It was coming!
Strangely, he felt his heart relax. It finally came.
The rest was very simple. One word suffer!
The earth energy that entered Zuo Mos body became even tinier. That would cause the pain
when they were drawn out to be even stronger.
Zuo Mos body uncontrollably trembled like dice. But his legs were like nails, hammered deeply
into the ground.
The hair-thin earth energy was slowly and forcefully sucked out of the depth of his body. They
passed through his flesh, the pores in his bones, his channels
Zuo Mo tried his best to keep his mind clear. This was the only method he had found over time
that could decrease the feeling of pain.
However, in such a painful state, it was very difficult to enter a clear state of mind.
Peoples potential was limitless.
After being continuously tortured, Zuo Mo started to find some tricks. He tried his best to pull
his consciousness away. It was best if it could wander outside his body. That way, no matter how
much pain his body was in, he would not be affected.
Relax, relax
His body was fiercely trembling, yet his breathing slowly calmed down.
[Embryonic Breathing Spiritual Cultivation]!
Unknowingly, Zuo Mo entered an embryonic state.

Hm! Pu Yao exclaimed in shock, his action of drawing out earth energy pausing.
In his bloody pupil, a thoughtful expression occurred. He seemed to have thought of something.
Maybe
Zuo Mo, in his embryonic state, was like a spectator. He could see his body continuously
tremble in increasing severity.
For the first time, he did not feel pain at all!
There was no joy. He just peacefully looked.
He looked as his body started to became transparent, looked at the flesh under his skin and
saw those hair-thin earth energies continuously break free of the control of his body and was
forcefully sucked out.
The entire process was displayed openly in front of him.
His muscles started to grow larger in front of him, so he could look more clearly, look closer.
Each fibre of his muscles uncontrollably trembled when the earth energy passed by.
He just silently looked. It seemed he could look at more things.
He was very peaceful, until he looked and saw a scene.
This was
Suddenly, he seemed to understand something. As the idea popped out, it was like a pebble had
been thrown at a peaceful pond.
Everything in the surroundings suddenly became blurred and unreal as though it was rippling.
Hiss!
Extreme pain suddenly washed over him like a flood! Zuo Mos mind had wavered as he left the
embryonic state. Before his mind could steady, it was rushed by this unparalleled pain. He almost
fainted.
Damn it!

Having left behind the embryonic state, Zuo Mo did not have any of the peace he had before. He
gritted his teeth and arched his neck, trying his best to bear the shock of the pain. His mouth
occasionally inhaled sharply. His eyes were red, like a bandit that had murdered many.
If this was any previous time, Zuo Mo definitely wouldnt try to resist like this. The pain this
time was far greater than any other previous occasion. It would be better to just faint. Then he
wouldnt have to experience it.
However, he definitely wouldnt give up this time. He decided to resist to the end. He didnt have
the time to ponder what he had just seen, but he believed his own judgement.
It was so painful it was pleasurable! So painful it reached his bones!
He struggled to bear it.
He wanted to laugh, roar with laughter!

[i] A gada is a mace, a weapon used by one of the Gods. In depictions, the gada is literally a
stone on a stick. This particular weapon has flanges, so it is a four-flanged mace/gada. Search
vajra weapon, and imagine one end of it set on a stick.
Translator Ramblings: Zuo Mo now has three out of five items needed for his sword formation.

Three Black Wind Bandits
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, warlord212, and

Chapter One Hundred and Eighty Three Black Wind Bandits
Zuo Mos hands were on his knees as he allowed his sweat to drip to the ground. His chest was
heaving like bellows, his rough rushed breathing short and sharp. He didnt have the energy to
talk.
He still wanted to smile, wanted to laugh.
His brain numbed from pain, he gradually recovered his strength. The joy in his heart diluted the
exhaustion of his body. What he had seen when he looked, he almost did not believe it.

The earth energy spread throughout his body, and in the end into his blood and flesh. When Pu
Yao drew it out, the thin earth energy was like a rainstorm of needles that once again passed
through his blood and flesh.
In other words, Zuo Mo might not have been able to keep the earth energy, but the flesh of his
body was bathed twice by the earth energy. The stimulation caused by the earth energy as it was
drawn out by Pu Yao was much stronger than when Zuo Mo absorbed the earth energy.
Even though Zuo Mo could not keep the earth energy, his physical body was being continuously
tempered like a piece of metal. The attribute of the earth energy, nourishment, could quickly
replenish the damage that Zuo Mos body received during this beating.
As long as he could keep bearing it after his body had gone through such a forging process
multiple times, wouldnt it be strong?
He didnt know if the gravestone had told him to agree with Pu Yao because of this. In any case,
he wanted Pu Yao to do it more. In his perspective, this was a method of cultivation, even though
it really was a matter of luck. Even if he understood the trick to it, but without Pu Yao, it would
be impossible. Zuo Mo didnt have any way of drawing out the earth energy in his body.
Zuo Mo controlled the exhilaration in his heart, and pretended to be exhausted. Like a bag of
sand, he smashed on to the ground like wet mud.
He definitely could not attract Pu Yaos attention.
Zuo Mo understood Pu Yao very well. That renyao would be excited upon seeing his sorry state
and would be very willing to do this again. However, if the other saw his joy, Pu Yao would
definitely stop.

In the Endless Ocean, a large group of xiuzhe were flying, all kinds of colors crossing the sky.
Head, those three would definitely run towards Little Mountain Jie, should we keep pursuing?
The one speaking was a tall and thin person. The almond-yellow Taoist robe hung on his body
like a rag that could be blown away by the wind at any time. He was called Wei Rong, and
ranked third in this crowd of people.

Go! Why dont we keep going? The large man at the front stared with his bell-sized eyes. Wei
Rong couldnt help but shrink back. The big man at the front was called Zhang Hao. His
personality was as explosive as fire, his eyes full of viciousness.
Not just Little Mountain Jie, even if its the edge of the world, I wont let them escape! The big
mans eyes flashed with viciousness, They dare to trick me, Ill skin them!
Yes yes yes, Wei Rong hurried to agree.
Hee hee, those three really had the best luck, finding a secret realm. Judging from their actions,
they seemed to have gained a lot, Another man with one eye and a lame leg laughed darkly. He
was called Zuo Han. In this group, he was second in rank.
Good luck? Its our good luck! Greed flashed through Zhang Haos eyes. He shouted,
Brothers, if we want to be rich, then lets get motivated! A secret realm! Ha, after finishing this
job, we can retire! What do you say?
Kill them!
Head, dont worry, meat thats reached our mouths, can we let them escape?
Kill kill kill!

Riches moved peoples hearts. To this crowd of bandits that lived through robbery, nothing could
move them more than this. This crowd of people exuded killing intent, the exhaustion of their
long flight lessening.
Zuo Han glanced at the Head in admiration. Head might look straightforward, but just a few of
his words instantly stirred the desire for battle in everyones hearts. He was very skilled!
A secret realm!
Just these two words, if news spread, they could create countless conflicts in Sky Moon Jie. Zuo
Han couldnt help but admire the luck of the three people who had found a secret realm. They
had accidentally stumbled upon the three and found some traces. However, they were just a bit
too slow. When they rushed over, everything good inside the secret realm had been completely
swept away.

In reality, even without those treasures, the value of the secret realm was extraordinary. However,
to Zhang Hao and the others, it didnt have any value. They were wandering bandits, moving like
the wind. If they put down roots, their enemies would quickly come to kill them.
Everyone understood this, so they did not hesitate in pursuing in the direction the three had gone
in.
This team of wandering bandits was about seventy people. Its size couldnt be considered large,
but they had great offensive power. They called themselves Black Wind. So everyone called
them the Black Wind Bandits. Each member was at least zhuji. Five were in ningmai. The
newest member had been a part of the group for three years. They were very good in their
cooperation. Adding on that there were not many members, they were very experienced. It was
hard to track their movement, many experts that wanted to kill them were not able to.
Head Zhang looked straightforward, but in reality, he was careful and cautious. They had lived
very freely.
In these two years, the situation had become more unstable. Their lives had gotten even better.
Those big sects were hurriedly consolidating their own power for their survival, and didnt have
the time to bother with them.
It wasnt just the Black Wind Bandits. The present Sky Moon Jie was not as peaceful as in the
past. Murders and fights were multiple times more frequent than three years ago. This messy
situation seemed to point to an even more chaotic future. It was very rare to see xiuzhe that
travelled alone.
The result was that the market rate to hire a sword xiu had exploded, and reached a terrifying
level. Correspondingly, the price for all kinds of production xiuzhe had dropped. Many people
were facing unemployment. A very strange situation appeared in the markets. The prices of all
kinds of materials were sky high, but the formerly busy ling gardens were now barren.
Everyone was concerned.
Everyone was waiting, waiting for big sects like Wu Kong Sword Sect to finish their
reorganization, and steady the situation.
The Black Wind Bandits had taken advantage of the chaos and grew larger by taking a few big
jobs. Right now, all of them were very wealthy, but greed was not so easy to satisfy. As they
changed their talismans, the overall power of the Black Wind Bandits had risen. This allowed
them to gain enough power to steal from more powerful xiuzhe, even managing to target some of
the minor powers.

But even the rich little powers could not compare to a secret realm.
Head, they stopped on the little island coming up, One of the subordinates pointed at the little
island that could just be seen. He was the one most skilled in tracking of this group.
Go see, Head Zhang unhesitatingly ordered.
A group of people flew towards the island.

Chun Yu Cheng pointed at the infant worms in the beast pool, full of pride and anticipation as he
said, Shixiong, this is the first batch of worms.
He didnt like conflict and fighting. His main goal in life was to accomplish something in the
field of animal husbandry. He had sunk into the beast pool in the last period of time. All of his
attention was on pondering the abilities of the beast pool. Much of the content in the jade scroll
was not complete and there were many parts he did not understand. However, he was not
discouraged, but full of motivation to keep studying harder.
A person that came from grassroots would always be very careful with any opportunity they got.
The harder it was to understand, the more excited he was, because this meant that it was more
profound.
Low level xiuzhe were willing to trade anything to get a profound skill or spell, including their
life, because they had nothing.
Chun Yu Cheng forgot to eat and sleep as he studied. As expected, he did discover some things.
This batch was only six infant worms, and it was the first successful batch that he had raised up
until now. It was no wonder that he was so excited, and couldnt wait to show off his results.
Whats the mother? Zuo Mo asked as he looked at the six infant worms.
The infant worms were about the thickness of his pinky, wrinkled, and grey white. They were not
very attractive. Zuo Mo was slightly disappointed. These infant worms looked too normal,
without any hint of quality. However, he also knew that this beast pond was profound and hard to

understand. Chun Yu Cheng Shidi was just a zhuji, and it would definitely take time before he
would produce good results.
He could not hurry this.
Chun Yu Cheng did not detect Zuo Mos disappointment at all. He said excitedly, I used three
kinds of ling butterflies for the mother. Dong Fu Poisonous Moth, Blue Pupil Butterfly and Rain
Mark Butterfly!
Zuo Mos face was puzzled, What are these ling butterflies?
Chun Yu Cheng didnt dare to laugh at Zuo Mo and he hurried to explain, Dong Fu Poisonous
Moth is a normal kind of poisonous moth produced in Dong Fu. It is second-grade, and can
release a certain amount of poisonous powder. It is an average ling butterfly. Blue Pupil Butterfly
and Rain Mark Butterfly are third-grade ling butterflies. Blue Pupil Butterflies are born with a
pair of blue pupils that can see through illusions of third-grade and under. The Rain Mark
Butterfly is a water element butterfly, skilled in water element spells. The highest grade Rain
Mark Butterfly Ive ever seen could use three water spells. The one I used is of average quality,
and can only cast one kind of water element spell.
Oh, it sounds very complicated! Zuo Mo gaped, nodding his head.
Yes, this is all too deep and broad! Chun Yu Cheng sighed.
Zuo Mo hadnt heard of any of the three ling butterflies before. The bunch of ling butterflies that
Chun Yu Cheng had introduced to him before, he had completely forgotten all of them. He
thought that his decision to throw the beast pool to Chun Yu Cheng Shidi was really too wise. If
it was him, wouldnt he be having a headache?
Thinking about it that way, Zuo Mos disappointment at the ugliness and average nature of the
infant worms instantly disappeared.
He smiled at Chun Yu Cheng, saying, Dont rush. We can go slowly. Maybe we can produce a
few fine ones. Then well strike it rich!
Chun Yu Cheng knew Shixiong was comforting him. The rate that fine ones appeared was very
low. He had studied for so many years, but he had only ever produced two ling beasts that could
be considered to touch the border of fine. It was these two semi-fine ling beasts that allowed him
to qualify for the jade medal.

Dont worry, Shixiong, before, Yu Cheng could not say it, Chun Yu Cheng said seriously, But
with the beast pool and such a profound method, Yu Cheng would definitely bring good news to
Shixiong!
Zuo Mo saw the mood was too stern and wanted to say a few words to loosen it up when he
suddenly raised his head to look into the distant sky.
A long way off in the sky, a crowd of black dots was flying at high speed towards the Desolate
Wood Reef.
Zuo Mos gaze focused!
After his consciousness had turned into leaf hands, it was abnormally sensitive. He could clearly
feel the ferocity of the others approach.
The murderous intent was like a dark cloud, a suffocating presence sweeping towards him!
Translator Ramblings:
For those who commented why the three people didnt just kill Zuo Mo and take the fire, they
havemuch more to lose as youve read in this chapter. Production xiuzhe are now worse off, but
if bandits are roaming about, Zuo Mos formation setting services should be in high demand if he
is still at Wu Kong Mountains.
I dont know if Zuo Mo is a dictionary-definition masochist since he endures the pain to gain
something, not just because he enjoys the pain (Correct me if I am wrong here.) On the other
hand, Pu Yao definitely enjoys tormenting others.
The Black Wind Bandits are called the Bandits in Chinese. (wu) is the raven, crow or
black. The literal definition is black wind. However, it can also be the raven wind so it is not
a good omen. Even more, (wu feng) is also a disease in Chinese Traditional Medicine.
When it occurs, the afflicted has itchy eyes, a headache or dizziness, and may be temporarily
blind.

Four Mantis and Oriole
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter One Hundred and Eighty Four Mantis and Oriole

Without a word, Zuo Mo brought out the Wu Kong Flag.


The black metal mast carried a inky black flag, the words Wu Kong written with sword-like
strokes that almost flew off the cloth!
As the Wu Kong Flag was revealed, sword essences rippled as though an invisible hand
disturbed a still puddle of water. The air in the surroundings became dense and cold, with
turbulence flowing under the surface.
Zuo Mo saw the xiuzhe come in even closer, and his hands started to rapidly cast all kinds of
spells.
Light suddenly formed on the Wu Kong Flag above his head. Countless sword energies of all
colours flew out from the flag, like fish of different colours. They swirled and circled around Zuo
Mo.
With the sword energies as protection, Zuo Mos confidence increased.
Wu Kong Flag was the token of the sect, forged together by multiple jindan. What was sealed
inside were sword energies from all types of jindan experts. Limited by his cultivation Zuo Mo
could not use the full power of the Wu Kong Flag, but the sword energies of jindan experts were
still incredibly dangerous to ningmai.
Luckily, there was no jindan expert in this group!
Zuo Mo stared at the group of xiuzhe that was coming closer. He couldnt help but be slightly
nervous. This was the first time he was facing so many people by himself. The other side clearly
had ill intentions.
However, he might be nervous, the but there were not any stray thoughts in his head. His mind
was abnormally clear. As soon as the other side made a move, he would not hesitate in
unleashing a thundering attack!
The xiuzhe in the air stopped their flight, facing off from far away.

Zhang Haos face was hesitant as he stared at the black flag.

Zuo Hans features were twisted, his one eye showing deep hatred, his hands fisting and
cracking.
Wei Rongs face was pale, his bamboo-like body shaking. When the other people saw the flag, it
was like they had seen a ghost, deep terror on all of their faces and their bodies uncontrollably
shrinking back.
In one moment, the procession of more than seventy people sank into a strange silence.
Head, this little brother has followed you for ten years, you know my temper. This little brother
doesnt want to drag everyone down. This brothers revenge, this brother will personally take it.
Head, dont stop me! Zuo Hans voice seemed to come from the Netherworld. Everyones
expression changed upon hearing it. The cowardly Wei Rong was white.
Some time before, the reckless Black Wind Bandits had coincidentally encountered Wu Kong
Sword Sect, and it had been the group led by Wei Sheng. They were instantly defeated and
heavily wounded. Zuo Hans eye and leg had been taken by Wei Sheng.
Wei Shengs Void Sword Scripture was somewhat complete now. His sword essence would
permeate the body. Zuo Han had tried all the lingdan but could not heal it. His hatred of Wu
Kong Sword Sect was deep to the bone. He had constantly thought of ways to seek revenge but
the only realistic way was to encounter Wu Kong Sword Sect disciples that were alone and kill
them to vent his frustrations.
He hadnt thought he would really encounter Wu Kong Sword Sect disciples.
Staring at the big flag, Xhang Zhao did not speak. He could naturally see the extraordinary
nature of the flag. This disciple was undoubtedly a core disciple of Wu Kong Sword Sect. If he
really killed this Wu Kong Sword Sect disciple today, Wu Kong Sword Sect would not rest.
Having almost been killed by Wu Kong Sword Sect, how could Zhang Hao not be angry? But he
recognized the situation. With the strength of the Black Wind Bandits, going to seek revenge
against Wu Kong Sword Sect was seeking their own death. In the eyes of Wu Kong Sword Sect,
the Black Wind Bandits were nothing. As long as they didnt go to challenge them, Wu Kong
Sword Sect would not remember them.
But if he let Zuo Han go off to see revenge alone, what would the other brothers think? Zuo Han
was one of the oldest and original members of the Black Wind bandits, and had followed him for
ten years, making numerous and great contributions. If he was so frigid, it would cool the hearts
of the other brothers.
If the hearts moved apart, then the Black Wind Bandits were over.

Also, a secret realm


The secret realm was like a heavy weight on his heart. The balance in Zhang Haos heart
instantly tilted.
This was the jie river. If they killed this disciple, and travelled far from Sky Moon Jie, no matter
how powerful Wu Kong Sword Sect was, they would not be able to do anything. As long as this
band of brothers was together, they could live anywhere.
He never even thought that he could be defeated. It had been such a long time, and the only
person who came out was a zhuji.
No matter how strong Wu Kong Flag was, if his group couldnt kill one zhuji, then they could go
back to drinking milk.
A pity about the flag
He knew the extraordinary nature of the Wu Kong Flag, but he didnt dare to take it. Sect tokens
like these would have their own special imprints in them. Holding it was akin to telling other
people where they were. Wu Kong Sword Sect would only need to send one jindan to kill them
all.
Zhang Hao inhaled deeply, viciousness flashing through his eyes. He said hatefully, What are
you saying? Our group, after all this time and struggles, we are one f***ing family! Wu Kong
Sword Sect might be strong! We cant kill them! But we cant be weak! We were humiliated so
badly last time, if we cant even deal with a baby, can it be any more of a f***ing
embarrassment?
Zhang Hao looked around. Shame was on the faces of many. Yes, Wu Kong Sword Sect was
powerful, but if they had surrounded a disciple, it would be embarrassing if they escaped!
Zhang Haos tone relaxed slightly, Where is this? This is the jie river! As long as we pass the jie
river, it will be Little Mountain Jie! Wu Kong Sword Sect is strong? Can they go through Little
Mountain Jie without any care? Ha ha, we can go hide. Can they find us?
The other people nodded when they heard this.
Zhang Hao continued to pour oil on the fire, full of persuasion. It is a secret realm! Brothers!
Once we catch those three, were rich! With jingshi, where cant we go? Well be bosses
wherever we go!

With the work of a few words, the desires of the group had been stirred by by Zhang Hao.
Viciousness shine in everyones eyes, killing intent brimming. They wanted to immediately level
the Desolate Wood Reef!

Feeling the killing intent become increasingly heavy, Zuo Mo knew a big battle could not be
avoided. He didnt have any thoughts of avoidance. He didnt know what the group of people
was, but seeing they had no fear of the Wu Kong Flag, they were definitely not normal xiuzhe.
One against seventy, he knew how low his chance of victory was.
But there was no place to escape on this Endless Ocean. The shidi that he had taken along were
all producers. If he abandoned them, they would only have one outcome.
He broke off all his thoughts. Staring at the xiuzhe brimming with killing intent in the sky, his
courage rose.
Wasnt it just a fight!
Ge will chip off all of your teeth until the blood flowed!
He felt his blood boiling, a desire for battle rising in his chest.
Just as he was going to activate the Skyring Moon Chime Formation, he suddenly made a sound
of surprise.
Skyring Moon Chime Formation

The disciples of Wi Kong Sword Sect were gathered together, all of them with bloodless faces.
The only one that was somewhat calm was Gongsun Cha. Even Chun Yu Xhengs complexion
was slightly pale.

Where did this crowd come from? They dare to disregard our Wu Kong Sword Sect! Arent
they afraid the sect will pursue them? Chun Yu Chengs voice was trembling.
Gongsun Cha snorted, This group is definitely wandering bandits. I just dont know which
bunch. Pursue? How do they pursue? If they run to Little Mountain Jie, the sect will have no
way.
What should we do what should we do Chun Yu Cheng was mindless.
Gongsun Cha shuffled and spread his white palms, All up to Zuo Shixiong.
Zuo Shixiong is only one person
No way about it, submit to your fate.

About ten miles from the Desolate Wood Reed, in the middle of a white cloud, a bunch of people
were also staring at the Desolate Wood Reef.
Ha, now heres something to see. Who do you think will win? the yellow-faced man said.
At his side was a black clothes xiuzhe. His body was withered like dry firewood, his eyes dark. It
was Gui Feng from the Sword Test Conference. On the other side was an indifferent, short wiry
haired, Chang Heng with a copper ring at his collarbones.
The other people present both feared and were in awe of these three, unconsciously keeping their
distance.
Gui Fengs eyes were eerily green, his cultivation much deeper than before. His voice was raspy.
He isnt in ningmai. The implication did not have to be said. He still didnt know the origins of
the yellow-faced man. He only knew that the yellow-faced man called himself Bo Feng.
He cultivated the [Little Ghost Sword] which was an extremely obscure sword scripture. Even
though he had good talent, but the [Little Ghost Sword] scripture had been incomplete at the
start. It was hard for him to keep progressing further. At the time, Bo Feng had given him a
scripture called [Nine Ghost Nail Curse]. This scripture that he had never heard of before caused
him to have no hesitations about joining.

But when he saw Chang Heng, he was slightly shocked. He speculated that Chang Zheng should
be in a similar situation as him. However, he didnt know what scripture Bo Feng had given
Chang Heng.
He didnt really care about this group of zhuji. Actually, he felt there was no use for them. With
him and Chang Heng, this group of thirty six zhuji really had no use. The problems the three of
them could not solve, what good would adding on these thirty six zhuji be? They still wont be
able to solve it, and would even drag down their speed.
However, it had been Bo Feng who had gathered these thirty six zhuji. Gui Feng wouldnt make
trouble for himself by broaching the topic.
What do you think? Bo Feng turned to ask Chang Heng.
Chang Heng said calmly, Zuo Mo wins.
Hm, you have such confidence in him, Bo Feng smiled with surprise. Bo Fengs appearance
was not attractive He was extremely normal but his composure and actions had a presence that
could shake peoples hearts.
Hearing this, Gui Feng did not agree. This was not the Sword Test Conference, Zhang Hao and
his group of Black Wind Bandits were all extremely nasty and terrible people. This was a battle
to the death. A zhuji, managing to block them for a few hours was enough to be proud of, much
less victory.
But he did not voice it. He was still very wary of Chang Heng, there was no reason to cause
conflict for such an unimportant topic. His strength had grown over this period of time, Chang
Hengs growth most likely had not grown any less than his.
Bo Feng did not linger on the topic. He looked at the two sides facing off in the distance, his
voice serene. No matter which side wins, we need to get the detailed information about the
secret realm from Zhang Hao.
The authority in his voice could not be resisted. Everyones hearts shook.
Translator Ramblings: I hope you guys havent forgotten the strange yellow-faced man that was
searching for something during the Sword Test Conference.
If this was another fantasy novel, and Wei Sheng was the main character, Zuo Mo will be the
epic side character that will bravely stand up to protect the territory of the sect, have a moment of
enlightenment when motivated by his determination and feelings for the sect, but die a terrible

death. Then Wei Sheng will power up due to his sorrow and embark on a journey of revenge for
Zuo Mo.
Here is an explanation of the mantis and oriole. The main gist is the hunter (mantis) is focused on
its prey (locust) to the point it cannot see another hunting it (the oriole) from behind. Fang
Xiang isnt going to follow the idiom very well.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Eighty Five


The Power of the Golden Crow Fire!
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, Brian, and warlord212.
Chapter One Hundred and Eighty Five The Power of the Golden Crow Fire!
The two sides didnt even exchange greetings.
Zuo Mo didnt need to ask to feel the enmity from the other side. The Black Wind Bandits did
not find it necessary.
He was just a zhuji, so did they need to waste such words?
Even though he knew that Zuo Han desperately wanted to get revenge, Zhang Hao still decided
to send a few people to test out the waters. The abilities of the Wu Kong Flag would be known
after an encounter. Zhang Hao had gone through countless battles and knew very well he could
not be careless. The enemy was a core disciple of Wu Kong Sword Sect. It would be normal for
him to have one or two life-saving talismans.
These life-saving talismans were usually bestowed by the elders of the sect and were incredibly
powerful. If they were not careful, they would stumble where they shouldnt, a common
occurrence. Since their own side had the advantage, there was no need to take unnecessary risks.
Zuo Han was a very good subordinate. He wouldnt be able to bear it if Zuo Han was tricked.
There were seventy people in the Black Wind Bandits. Five of them had reached ningmai. These
were the backbone of the Black Wind Bandits. Those under ningmai could easily be replaced,
especially in such troubled times.
He called five zhuji subordinates forward. Even if the opponent had life-saving treasures, his
cultivation was still limited. The other would be at a disadvantage with one against five.

Battle quickly, He said and then turned to comfort Zuo Han, Old brother, dont be impatient.
After they catch him, if you want to skin him or suck out the marrow, you can do whatever you
want!
Zuo Han said gratefully, Many thanks, Head!
Zhang Hao roared with laughter, Dont be so courteous. Old Brother has made many
contributions over these years. This is just a minor matter.

The five people did not dare to be rash. Light was flashing on the flag above the others head,
and suggested it wasnt anything ordinary. If it was one on one, they knew that they were not a
match for disciples of a large sect. But if it was five on one, so they had enough confidence. To
be able to survive in the Black Wind Bandits, especially as a zhuji, they had to learn how to
cooperate with their fellow bandits.
This was the reason that the Black Wind Bandits had been able to remain free all these years.
They cooperated very well among themselves. This showed up very clearly when several groups
were fighting. Their best method of fighting was to use many to fight against the strong, and use
many to fight against many.
The disciples of large sects focused on individual power; that meant that they didnt have any
advantages when they were fighting in groups.
The five xiuzhe came slowly, spreading out in specific positions that complimented each other.

Zuo Mo stared at the five people. He was not nervous. The sword energies around his body were
flying in patterns.

Of the five xiuzhe, three were sword xiu, one person had a black banner, and one had a chainsickle. The cultivation of the five were not much different compared to Zuo Mo, roughly in the
higher stages of zhuji. The person holding the black banner waved it, and an inky black cloud
headed towards Zuo Mo.
The three sword xiu also attacked. Three flying swords of different colors turned to three dashes
of light, transforming in the air as they headed towards Zuo Mo.
A cold smile floated on the mouth of the xiuzhe holding the chain-sickle. The black sickle swung
in his hands and rattled rhythmically. The chain was the thickness of a thumb, with a water-drop
shaped spike at the end of the chain. Traces of blood could be seen on the black chain. It could be
seen this weapon had drank a lot of blood and was a violent weapon!
Zuo Mo naturally would not slack off. The Wu Kong Flag above his head landed on his hand,
and he waved it.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh.
Countless sword energies flew out of the body of the flag and headed towards the black cloud.
The sword energies easily passed through the black cloud. The black cloud rumbled and returned
to normal in the blink of an eye.
Zuo Mo tightly stared at the black could. Of the five people, the black cloud and the person
holding the chain-sickle felt most dangerous to him. The threat posed by the three sword xiu was
actually the smallest. None of the sword xiu had comprehended sword essence. In Zuo Mos
eyes, their sword energies were insubstantial.
The feeling this black cloud gave Zuo Mo was somewhat similar to the blood fiends in the sword
cave, dark and gloomy.
His mind was clear, the three flying swords were aiming at his chest, Zuo Mo turned and dodged
the three flying swords. He still stared at the black cloud, his mind thinking furiously about how
to deal with it. The person wielding the banner was hiding behind everyone else. It wasnt
realistic to attack the other.
The xiuzhe holding the chain-sickle did not move. He was like an experienced hunter, patiently
waiting for Zuo Mo to reveal a weakness.
The black cloud was not fast, but its scope was very vast and would not be easy to dodge. The
sword energies that passed through it had not stopped it at all.

A difficult thing!
Zuo Mos head swelled.

Far away, the attitudes of those spectating such as Bo Feng were idle, but when Bo Feng saw the
black banner, he had a startled expression, Black Blood Banner? People still make those? He
looked closely and then realized, So it is incomplete. No wonder.
What is the Black Blood Banner? Gui Feng suddenly asked. In the [Nine Ghost Nail Curse]
that Bo Feng had given him, it had mentioned the Black Blood Banner but it was a general
description.
An obscure talisman. Made by collecting yin and dirty substances. It can corrode talismans and
flying swords very effectively, Bo Feng did not conceal anything, explaining honestly, Most of
the xiuzhe that use this kind of talisman cultivate ghosts and yin spirits, but it is not easy to forge
one. What that banner used is Black Dog Blood. The grade is too low, the forging method is
incomplete so the power is limited.
Gui Feng listened carefully. He might cultivate a sword scripture, but it was also related to the
area of ghosts and yin spirits. Most of the xiuzhe that practiced these arts were roaming xiu, but
among the sword xiu it was not considered an honourable practice. He normally did not have
anyone who could teach him.
Bo Feng glanced at him and said care freely, However, if one doesnt know how to deal with it,
this is difficult to deal with.

The other members of the Black Wind Bandits were at ease. In their minds, this battle was
already decided.

Zhang Hao smiled at Zuo Han, That guys Dark Yin Banner is really good! It is always effective
when used. Pity that it is hard to forge. If we can get a few more, our strength will increase by
much.
Zuo Hans mood had relaxed. His face also easing off. Hearing this, he smiled and said, Head is
too greedy. It is lucky that our troop had even one. Other than our troop, Ive never heard of
another in our profession that had one, and Head wants us to have multiple.
Ha ha! Zhang Hao laughed, Thats true. Im too greedy.
He was very proud inside. The Black Wind Bandits did not have many members but it did not
lack for talent. They were some of the best of their profession in Sky Moon Jie.

Just as Zuo Mo was frantically moving, he suddenly heard Pu Yao snort coldly, They take
something as trashy as this out! So embarrassing! He then said disdainfully to Zuo Mo, You
cant even defeat trash like this, you truly embarrass me!
Zuo Mo instantly didnt feel good. Looking at the situation he swore, Stop wasting words, and
tell me how to deal with it?
The methods of the Dhyana xiu are very effective.
Dhyana xiu? Seeing the black cloud fly closer, Zuo Mo was speechless. There was no time to
deal with Pu Yaos riddles
Oh, I forgot you dont understand. You only have a half-assed [Vajra Profound Scripture]. Its
useless, Pu Yao drawled.
It was deliberate, this guy definitely was doing it deliberately! Zuo Mos teeth itched in anger.
Oh, I remember, this thing is afraid of fire.
Zuo Mos mind jumped. Afraid of fire, that was too easy!
What he didnt lack right now was fire!

A flip of the hand, and a mini box appeared in his hand.


Zuo Mos action attracted everyones eyes.
What was that?
Amidst everyones curiosity, Zuo Mo threw the jade box at the black cloud.

The xiuzhe holding the black banner snorted coldly, ling power flooding into the banner. The
black cloud became even thicker and darker, like sticky black ink. A nauseating smell instantly
spread.
His Dark Yin Banner had been forged using a secret method that he had found in the remnants of
a scroll. It was always successful at corrupting talismans.
Seeing the other throw out a jade box, he smirked inside. What the Wu Kong Flag had sent out
were all sword energies. His cloud was intangible, so they had not been affected it.
Im not afraid you will use talismans, but Im afraid that you wont use talismans!
His eyes twinkled as his prey fell into his trap. .
The little jade box flipped through the air, attracting everyones eyes.
Zuo Mo had used a large amount of force. In the blink of an eye, the jade box flew into the black
cloud.
The xiuzhe with the chain-sickle shook his head, slightly regretful that he wouldnt get the
chance to attack. He knew his fellows black banner very well. No matter what kind of talisman,
if it was touched by the black cloud, they would become scrap. Many ningmai had been tripped
up by this non-descript black cloud.
As the jade box entered the black cloud, it was quickly corroded. The surface of the box was
raven black, and a white rotten pattern appeared.
The xiuzhe holding the banner gave a smug smile.

Suddenly, a sword energy entered the black cloud and accurately struck the jade box!
This was
The smile of the banner-holding xiuzhe suddenly froze.
Pia!
The corroded jade box was incredibly fragile, and turned to dust when struck by the sword
energy.
A pure golden flame fought its way out of the jade box.
Golden Crow Fire!
Hiss crack crack!
The black cloud was like a ball of oil that was suddenly lit up in a blaze, the little wisp of Golden
Crow Fire grew dramatically. The fire spread with astounding speed from the centre of the cloud
outwards.
Terror formed in the eyes of the banner-wielding xiuzhe.

Watching from far away, Bo Fengs eyes lit up and he couldnt help but gasp, Golden Crow
Fire! Its actually Golden Crow Fire!
Golden Crow Fire!
Chang Heng and Gui Fengs hearts shook. They stared at the black cloud, not daring to move
their eyes away. Their subordinates were all puzzled.

Hm, whats happening? Zhang Hao stilled. He could make out golden light through the black
cloud.
Was it that the talisman the little baby had thrown out not affected?
Zuo Han also couldnt help but stare at the black cloud.
The two looked at each other and found their heated gaze. A talisman that was not affected by the
black cloud was very rare. That was definitely a very good talisman!
The golden light inside the black cloud became increasingly brighter. All of the xiuzhe noticed
the abnormality of the black cloud. However, their thoughts were the same as Zhang Hao and
Zuo Han. No one noticed the deep hopelessness on the face of the banner-holding xiuzhe.
A wisp of golden fire finally burned through the black cloud.
In the blink of an eye, the thick tangible surface of the black cloud was covered in burning
flames.
In the sky, an enormous golden ball of fire hung like the sun.
The golden fire was entirely pure, a domineering presence spreading out and sweeping like the
wind!
Ah! The heart-wrenching wail caused everyones hearts go jump.
The banner-holding xiuzhe had become a person made from golden fire.
He only had the time to wail before both he and the black banner turned to dust.
Everyone was shocked!
Translator Ramblings: Its a semi-cliff hanger today, still in the middle of a fight but at the end of
a move.
Zuo Mos flag is attached to the pole by the side of the cloth. The banner is most likely attached
to the pole by the top to a perpendicular bar. So these two cloth-type talismans look somewhat
different.

Sword Formation

Chapter One Hundred and Eighty Six Sword Formation
Golden Crow Fire, fourth-grade, formed by gathering the essence of the sun, had extremely yang
and strong attributes, and was one of the sources of all fires in the world.
Golden Crow Fire was usually created through being nurtured by some special kinds of ling
grasses such as the Sky Sunflower. Golden Crow Fire could occasionally be found at the very
centre of the flower.
Supposedly, some sects had secret methods that could create Golden Crow Fire, but due to the
fire being overly yang and domineering it was extremely damaging to the body. It could leave
hidden weaknesses and so secret methods were needed. It was one of the fire seeds people
dreamed about. It could even absorb and merge with many other kinds of fire seeds, increasing
the grade of the fire.
On the market, Golden Crow Fire was a treasure that had high demand and no supply! Even the
smallest wisp would be worth a thousand jingshi.
People usually remembered how beneficial it was as a fire seed but usually forgot about the heat
and domineering of the fire itself!
It was fourth-grade!
Zuo Mo was also stunned by the broad expanse burning in front of him. He had assumed that it
could damage this black cloud. He had never thought that the power of the Golden Crow Fire
was so terrifying!
What he didnt know was the Golden Crow Fire was an extremely strong yang attribute, and was
the exact counter to something yin and corrupting as the black cloud. This was why the result
was so exaggerated.
The black cloud twisted in the air like a little mountain, pressing down on everyone.
But when it turned to a ball of fire, such an enormous ball of fire, it was even more of a blow
than the black cloud.
It came without any warning, or rather, they hadnt made any preparations.
Everyone was frightened!

Zuo Mo was only stunned for a moment before he woke. Such a good chance, if he wasted it, he
would be punished by Heaven!
After being hammered in the big sword essence formation, his grasp of battle rhythm had
increased.
He channeled ling power silently. The sword energies were like swimming fish that soundlessly
flew out of the Wu Kong Flag and soundlessly neared the remaining four people.
There was a variety of sword energies sealed inside the Wu Kong Flag of all attributes. It could
be seen just how vast of an area each elder had grasped. The flag also sealed three great moves
that could be constructed from these sword energies. This was the most important thing about the
flag. The original intentions of Pei Yuan Ran and the others in forging the flag had been these
moves, that only jindan experts could use. This way, ningmai disciples could release jindan level
attacks and save their own lives at a crucial time.
Pei Yuan Ran originally had not intended to give Zuo Mo the Wu Kong Flag because he had
been considering that Zuo Mo basically could not use the full power of the flag. Later on, he
couldnt withstand the fire of Shi Feng Rongs fury, so he had to part with it.
Zuo Mo couldnt use any of the great killing moves sealed inside the Wu Kong Flag. He didnt
have enough ling power. He could only release those sword energies and not activate the killing
moves.
But so what if he couldnt?
It might have been the pressure from the life or death situation, but Zuo Mos consciousness was
abnormally clear. The shock caused by the Golden Crow Fire disappeared in an instant. The little
leaf formed from the [Great Thousand Leaf Hands] imperceptibly waved.
The sword energies flowed silently like water.
He found that he had dismissed this Wu Kong Flag before!
There were sword energies of all different kinds. Even though they could not form killing moves,
but he could easily control these sword energies.
Wasnt this the best tool for setting a formation?
Instantly comprehending his resources, his mind was clear and still.
The situation had turned.

The position of hunter and prey silently changed.


The golden ball of fire burned, a peerless domineering presence spread in ripples. It attracted
everyones gaze, the four people closest to it were not an exception. Under such a bright light,
everything had lost color. The four people did not know that sword energies had silently
surrounded them.
The sword energies slid like they were on ice, without a sound, and changed positions.
At the beginning, the changes in position between the sword energies was slightly raw, but
quickly, the changes in position became very precise.
All of this happened in an extremely short period of time.

The four people had still not recovered from the ferocity of the Golden Crow Fire. The only
person who detected something was the xiuzhe who had the chain-sickle.
Some clarity came into his eyes. He glanced at Zuo Mo holding the flag, his heart relaxing
slightly. When he looked in the surroundings, his expression suddenly changed. He called in
alarm, Careful
The sword formation had formed!
His shout became the prelude to the closing of the net!
The sharp and intimidating sword essences sliced at every bit of space. The air within their vision
was shattered in an instant.
Pew pew pew!
Three pillars of blood shot high into the sky! Before they landed, their bodies were ground to
powder by the sword energies that wove and sliced. Bam bam bam. The three sword xiu seemed
to explode in midair, countless bits of blood and gore flew outwards in all directions.
The first person to detect the attack was the xiuzhe who held the chain-sickle. He was very
experienced, and had gone through hundreds of battles. He didnt retreat, but charged!

A black light flew from his hand, the sickle headed straight for Zuo Mo! The water drop spike
arched like a poisonous snake, dancing so his sides were covered. As the sword energies hit it,
sparks flew!
Ding ding ding ding!
The sword energies continuously hit the lengthening chain, like it was a chain made of sparks.
The tip of the sickle gave a howl that shocked peoples souls.
The chain-sickle was made out of an unknown material that was able to cut out a path through
such a dense rain of sword energies!
The speed was very fast. The edge pointed straight at Zuo Mo!
Impact!
The hook had hit the other person!
He was jubilant at this surprising outcome. His original intentions had been to defend for a while
so his fellows would save him. He hadnt thought he would make impact with one attack!
Was the other too busy controlling the sword energies, and could not split his attention?
Hm, that wasnt right

The sword energies that suddenly lit up alarmed the Black Wind Bandits who were still in shock.
Right after, they saw something they would never be able to forget!
Countless sword energies formed a grand net. The three fellow bandits had been ground down
and exploded in an instant. The only surviving fellow, they were all very familiar with. The
chain-sickle on his hand had taken countless lives. However, the black blade was now strangely
striking at an empty space, several dozen zhang away from the enemy!
The jubilation on their comrades face made their hairs stand on end.

Illusion! Zhang Haos pupils shrunk. He controlled his impulse to charge over.
His eyes were very experienced. He clearly saw the other had used the sword energies to form a
formation. Now that the formation had been activated, charging in was too dangerous! His gaze
suddenly darkened. He knew that his remaining subordinate would not escape death.
As expected, a gigantic sword made from sword energies heavily struck at the chains that
covered the other.
The chain that was not easily damaged by flying swords shattered. The xiuzhe that did not have
the time to dodge was instantly bisected!
All five had been lost!
Bam. The golden ball of fire coincidentally collapsed at this time, sparks flying in all directions.
As the bright golden sparks rained down, a thin and weak youth holding a black flag several
times his size , was standing proudly under the five colored sword energies!
No one spoke, no one dared to move!
The pupils of all the Black Wind Bandits couldnt help but shrink. All the underestimation, all
the disdain, all their certainty, it all seemed so foolish now!
On the sky above the Desolate Wood Reef, there was only the sound of the wind.
Wei Rong who was shaking like dice suddenly shrieked, I remember, I remember now
hes Zuo Mo! He is Zuo Mo!
The shriek was ear-piercing in this deathly silence.

Far away, Bo Fengs gaze recovered its clarity. Even he had been dazzled by that grand kill.
Other than cultivation, Zuo Mo has improved very much compared to last time, He praised,
His formations are even harder to predict now. If his cultivation could increase at this rate, he
wouldnt be any less outstanding than Wei Sheng!

Gui Fengs mouth was open wide, but he could not make a sound, shock dominating his eyes.
The strength that Zuo Mo had just displayed was not just a little bit higher than at the Sword Test
Conference. Even though that Wu Kong Flag was very strong, but Zuo Mos skill was worthy of
praise.
His control of the sword energies, his skill at setting up formations
It was completely different than before.
What surprised Gui Feng the most was Zuo Mos practiced composure and calmness. He
remembered how tender Zuo Mo had been at the Sword Test Conference. In the short span of
half a year, the Zuo Mo in front of him had become a completely different person.
Cheng Heng did not speak, but his eyes seemed to light up, full of desire for battle.

Zuo Mo, so you are Zuo Mo! Zhang Haos expression was very ugly, his voice pressuring.
He had thought it would be a soft fruit, but it turned out to be a hard nail. He had heard the name
of Zuo Mo before. After the Sword Test Conference, this name had spread through all of Sky
Moon Jie. He knew the little brat that looked slightly weak was a core disciple of Wu Kong
Sword Sect, but he had not expected it to be Zuo Mo.
He remembered now. In the rumors, Zuo Mo was most skilled in formations.
He couldnt help but glance at the Desolate Wood Reef under them. There was no movement
there, but since the person here was Zuo Mo, there definitely would be countless formations
down there!
Bandit groups like the Black Wind Bandits disliked situations like this the most. What they were
skilled at was ambushes and robbery. What they were least skilled at was attacking heavily
guarded places with full frontal assaults.
In Zhang Haos eyes, the little island below was like a hedgehog.
If it was any other time, he definitely wouldnt attack such a place.

But right now, he tasted what it felt like to be unable to get off his high horse!
Other than Zuo Hans vengeance, five subordinates had been killed in front of him. If they left
like this, their overall motivation would be greatly impacted.
Also, he hurt!
The five subordinates had all been zhuji but the one with the banner and the other with the
chain-sickle had been xiuzhe with special spells. Other than the five most important backbones, it
was very difficult to find replacements for these xiuzhe who had special spells. He didnt hurt for
the death of the three sword xiu, but his heart was in pain at the death of those two!
He stared at Zuo Mo, his eyes red.
His temper was vicious and explosive. Now that he had tripped up so heavily, would he rest?
Even more, since he knew the person in front of him was Zuo Mo, he was clear of the
importance of this little island to Wu Kong Sword Sect.
Such an important place, they would definitely have stored plentiful resources.
He quickly decided. No matter what, they had to take down this little island!
Translator Ramblings: Zhang Hao is like the person who just lost a hand at poker and decided to
go all in immediately after.

Seven Two Hours
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, Brian, warlord212, and

Chapter One Hundred and Eighty Seven Two Hours
The wind howled, the mood above Desolate Wood Reef became even tenser.
The Black Wind Bandits killing intent spread. Zuo Mo sighed to himself. Killing the five people
just now had not created fear; it had provoked their viciousness.
Very quickly, he threw these thoughts to the back of his head because the other side had began
advancing forward.

Without a doubt, the next fight would be more fierce and cruel.
Zuo Mo felt the pressure suddenly increasing. He didnt have the luxury to hold back, raising his
hand he cast a light downwards.
Skyring Moon Chime Formation!
A crescent moon rose low into the sky. Countless thin strands fell from the bright moon, covering
the entire Desolate Wood Reef. On these thin strands, light rings of various sizes hung like wind
chimes.
But this crescent moon was dyed with an orange-red tinge, the moon gave off a warm orange
glow, when previously it was as clear and smooth as flowing water.
Zuo Mo sighed. Just a little bit more and the Buddha Sound Hoop would have finished. The
tempered Buddha Sound Hoop would definitely have increased its power. It was a pity that it had
just missed by a little bit, but just this little bit caused the power of the Buddha Sound Hoop to be
one level lower.
The situation in front of him did not allow him to continue to temper it. There were still more
than sixty people on the other side.
More than sixty xiuzhe, and five of them ningmai the pressure they gave him was unparalleled.
The only thing that could compete with the present situation was the great sword essence
formation. The big formation that was created by five jindan together. Naturally it would not be
ordinary. However, when he was inside the sword essence formation, he knew he didnt have to
worry about his life.
In terms of presence, this group was not as intimidating as the sword essence formation, but this
group of people wouldnt blink as they killed him. They really would take his little life!
What should I do? Zuo Mo asked Pu Yao.
Kill! Pu Yao was simple and crisp, his bloody pupil shining.
It was now that Zuo Mo felt this guy had some of the mannerisms of a Sky Yao. However, while
the aura was present, but it wasnt useful at all.
How do I kill? Zuo Mo felt he was an idiot to ask Pu Yao who was also an idiot, but he
couldnt resist asking.

Was it out of nervousness?


As expected, Pu Yao looked at him like he was looking at an idiot, One by one, of course.
He now really wanted to ask Pu Yao, How do I kill them one by one? But he suppressed it. He
really did not like Pu Yaos gaze.
Pu Yao thought and then suddenly said, If you can kill them all within two hours, I will teach
you another move of [Little Thousand Leaf Hands].
Two hours kill them all
This time, it was Zuo Mos turn to look at Pu Yao like he was looking at an idiot, Do you think
Im an an idiot? Two hours, you think Im killing pigs? They are
Just say if you will do it or not? Pu Yao lazily said, none of the killing intent he had just shown
was on his face.
Do it! Once he said it, Zuo Mo felt he was really an idiot.
Two hours, to kill that dense patch of people
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven
Sixty seven people, five ningmai, sixty two zhuji, he was zhuji
Okay, after Pu Yao did this, the last bit of nervousness in Zuo Mos heart had dissipated.
Strangely, he felt anticipation and excitement. It was as though he really yearned for the battle
that was going to come. His body heated up and his ling power was abnormally lively. Was it that
he had stayed too long with a pervert like Pu Yao, and became slightly perverse himself

The Skyring Moon Chime Formation covered the entire Desolate Wood Reef. Zuo Mos figure
was inside it, flickering in and out of sight.

Zuo Hans eyes were cold and filled with hatred and killing intent. However, he forcefully
suppressed it. He was waiting for Heads order. The reason that the Black Wind Bandits had
remained free for such a long time was their outstanding battle strategy, and it was their best
protection. Even though he was second in command, and even though the hatred was deep in his
heart, he still suppressed it.
Zhang Haos pupils shrunk into a line, a bloody light flashing from his eyes, cruel and vicious.
At this time, he had thrown all other thoughts to the back of his head. No matter how many
concerns he had, once he decided to fight, there was only one thought in his mind, kill them!
Kill! A bellow like the howl of a wild beast came from his throat.
Kill, kill, kill! The eyes of everyone else were completely red, leaving behind only pure killing
intent.
The sixty seven people split into several parts, and like thin flows, they headed towards Desolate
Wood Reef from different directions.
Just sixty seven people, but the vicious and brutal aura they exuded would alarm anyone.

Bo Feng who saw this scene suddenly lit up, and praised, I had originally thought that the Black
Wind Bandits had an inflated reputation before. Looking at it now, they are even better than the
rumors! To create this kind of presence, even Wu Kong Sword Sect which has been so powerful
recently, cannot do it.
One xiuzhe couldnt help say, When the Black Wind Bandits met Wu Kong Sword Sect last
time, they suffered a huge loss. The subordinate had followed Bo Feng for a time and knew that
Bo Feng would not be discontent due to differences in opinions, which was why he dared to
speak.
Bo Feng smiled and shook his head, Its not the same. Wu Kong Sword Sects strength is in
their individual experts. What the Black Wind Bandits are strong in is their combined ability. The
power of the group cannot replace experts, and the experts cannot replace the group. In small
conflicts, the effect of experts is very evident, but if it is battles of thousands of people, then the
use of experts begins to lessen.

How can there be battles with thousands of people? That xiuzhe objected.
There arent any now, but that doesnt mean there wont be in the future, Bo Feng said
meaningfully.

The sixty seven xiuzhe attacked at the same time, their presence was astounding!
Light flashed across the sky, flying swords and talismans were dancing.
Zhang Haos plan was very simple, to use brute force to break technique! It was unwise to go
head-on against a fortified target, but the present situation was special as the only person on the
other side that could resist was Zuo Mo. No matter how strong Zuo Mo was, when he faced the
attacks of sixty seven xiuzhe, there would have to be times where he would slip.
Formations were set up on the island. If they landed in them, that would give Zuo Mo a chance.
It was better to use brute force to break the formation from the base. Having lost his greatest
defense, Zuo Mo would be like a lamb waiting for slaughter.

Zuo Mo felt terrible right now.


Damn it!
This group of people rained everything down on his head!
Sixty seven xiuzhe furiously attacking downwards at the same time, without regard for ling
power. They looked as though they would only rest when Desolate Wood Reef was leveled.
This group was also very smart. They only bombarded Desolate Wood Reef from a distance and
did not come any closer.

Seeing all the flying swords and spells come down on his head like rain, Zuo Mo became
stubborn. Alright, ge will see just how much ling power you have to waste!
The Wu Kong Flag was heavily inserted into the ground. The sword energies that swarmed
around his body silently entered the Skyring Moon Chime Formation.
Zuo Mo jumped up from the ground and started to pass around the Desolate Wood Reef. He was
like a fireman, continuously watching over the big formation.
The Skyring Moon Chime Formation he had set up was unprecedentedly large, reaching two
hundred and sixteen child formations. Adding on that he had continuously been fixing the holes
recently, even though it was not impenetrable, but it still managed to survive the bombing of the
Black Wind Bandits.
He knew as long as he could make it through this round, the initiative would instantly change
sides.
Sixty seven xiuzhe, not all of them could be offensive xiuzhe. For example, Zuo Han had a
Hundred Poison Fan that could release all kinds of dark poisonous miasma, but in a fight of
strength, it couldnt have much of an effect.
The greatest threat came from strength based xiuzhe like Zhang Hao.
Zhang Haos flying sword was very unique. The body of the sword was extremely wide, like it
was a shovel or an ax. What he walked was a road of strength. The body of the sword was
covered in a layer of red light. Each attack was like a heavy ax breaking a mountain, weighing
thirty thousand catties!
Zuo Mo felt that Zhang Hao was the greatest threat out of all the people. Each of his attacks
would make Zuo Mos heart jump.
The hair-like threads of the Skyring Moon Chime Formation would be blown into a mess,
causing the rings of light on the threads to chime.
After being tempered for such a long time, the Buddha Sound Hoop had an additional attribute of
yang and dominance. Before, the chimes had been clear and ethereal. The present chimes were
deep and explosive. Even the echoes seemed to carry heat and flame.
Zuo Mo was still relatively calm. After being alarmed the first few times, he found that the
Skyring Moon Chime Formation was still untouched. He finally remembered that during the
Sword Test Conference, the seventy two child formation Skyring Moon Chime Formation had

endured a great ordeal. At that time, the number of ningmai that had been in the formation had
been more than right now.
If the others wanted to ruin the two hundred and sixteen child formation Skyring Moon Chime
Formation through brute force, that was a big delusion.
He knew the other side would quickly realize this.
At that time, the fight would truly start.
Zuo Mo raised his head to look at the sky. Throughout the threads, he could clearly see the mania
and hatred on the faces of his enemies.
He lowered his head, his eyes becoming slightly cold.
He started to take out formation disks from the ring, and threw them inside to form various
formations. Using the Skyring Moon Chime Formation as a cover, he secretly threw out many
formation disks.
At this time, he didnt have any thoughts of keeping anything back. The formation disks in his
ring flew out of his hands like they didnt cost money.
He wanted to turn the Desolate Wood Reef into a hunting ground. A hunting ground full of traps!

Gongsun Cha and the others had gone to hide in the cave with the lava lake. This was the safest
place on the Desolate Wood Reef. The lava cave was deep under the ground. Zuo Mo had set up
countless formations around it, and it was the most important of all important grounds.
So when they heard sound filtering from the outside, all of the people inside the cave had
worried expressions.
Chun Yu Cheng sighed, What a pity that we cannot help!
These made many people unconsciously clench their hands. They were all production xiu.
However, they were young and it was the age to be rash and brave. They also knew what their
fate would be if this group broke through the big formation.

What wandering bandits needed were people that could fight. Production xiuzhe, who had no
offensive strength, would be killed at the earliest convenience.
Gongsun Cha was the most composed of all the people. He laid on the ground and said
unconcernedly, Dont worry. It wont be so easy for them to break through Zuo Shixiongs big
formation. I also feel that Zuo Shixiong is much stronger than before. Has everyone forgotten the
Blue Spiked Crocodile?
Once the words came out, everyone was uplifted!
They thought about the multiple brute force impacts between Zuo Shixiong and the Blue Spiked
Crocodile. Confidence grew. Their unsecure hearts settled down!
In the sky, the attacks slowed down.
Zuo Mo raised his face to look and then bent down to keep setting up.
An absurd idea suddenly came into his mind.
Two hours, there wasnt much time left
Translator Ramblings: Listen to Bo Feng, he is the most second-most knowledgeable person in
this chapter. Zuo Mo has some great advantages in this fight. First, the fight is on his territory.
Second, he has adequate time to prepare. The bandits are attacking a place they do not know so
well, and an opponent they do not know enough about.

Eight Entering The Formation

Chapter One Hundred and Eighty Eight Entering The Formation
The Black Wind Bandits lack strong offensive xiuzhe. It isnt quite possible to break through
Zuo Mos formation-defense-style, Bo Feng said while shaking his head. In Zuo Mos hands,
this kind of turtle battle strategy is really used to the extreme. Unless they have troops
specializing in offense, its impossible to break through the turtle shell. With such a gigantic
formation, ningmai would find it difficult to destroy in a full frontal attack.

Gui Feng lowered his head. He thought about Zuo Mos formation-defense-style at the Sword
Test Conference that had caused a headache for everyone.
He didnt have many good ideas about how to resolve the formation-defense-style either.
Unless they could attack before Zuo Mo had set up the formation. Once Zuo Mo had completed
the formation, the chance of victory was almost zero.
The formation-defense-style was also called the turtle-style. It was called the strongest defense
below jindan. It wasnt that other people hadnt thought of mimicking Zuo Mos formationdefense-style. But when they tried it themselves, they discovered the formation-defense-style
was not so easy to make.
How to quickly set it up was one of the most important problems.
Looking at the present situation, Zuo Mos formation-defense-style had reached another stage.
His efficiency at setting up and his skill had risen dramatically when compared to the Sword Test
Conference.
Other than that, the combination of formations needed to be decided in an extremely short period
of time. To control the formations, it also demanded a strong and large consciousness.
After studying it in depth, everyone found that the formation-defense-style was not as simple as
imagined. Even the process of Zuo Mo battling Chao An was repeatedly taken out and studied.
This was one of the rare battles in recent years where the weak won over the strong. The rich
battle strategies involved in the match was enough for every xiuzhe who studied it to marvel.
Is there really no way? Another xiuzhe asked.
Bo Feng said deeply, If you encounter Zuo Mo, do not give him the chance to set up
formations.
But he has already set up formations, The xiuzhe looked at the Desolate Wood Reef.
Then I dont have any way, Bo Feng spread his hands and said honestly
Another xiuzhe couldnt help but say, Theres so many people. If they just charge in, they could
win.
In their eyes, the difference in strength between the two sides was too extreme. One versus sixty
seven, and there were five ningmai. Zuo Mo himself was just in the stage of zhuji. Even if he had

the help of the formation, if this many people charged in at the same time, Zuo Mo basically
would have no chance.
If it is anyone else, I would also feel the same, Bo Feng said patiently. To the zhuji under his
command, he never skimped on guidance, But if it is Zuo Mo, I dont think so. What formationdefense-style, thats just the surface. What Zuo Mo is greatest at is strategy. He is most skilled at
using all the factors at his disposal, and then turning them into advantages for himself. Even if he
didnt have these factors, he could also create an environment advantageous to himself. He is a
born strategist. On this point, Wei Sheng is not as great as him.
His subordinates all had expressions of understanding.
Bo Feng added, Of course, maybe, to Zuo Mo, this is a method born out of helplessness. He
needs to use other methods to compensate for his flaw of cultivation.
If Zuo Mo heard Bo Fengs analysis, he would definitely agree. If one had ling power, who
would do all this? Just slice with the sword. He admired Wei Sheng Shixiong very much on this
point.
Bo Feng then gave his conclusion, From when they started to attack the Desolate Wood Reef,
they became the reactive side. Desolate Wood Reef is very important to Wu Kong Sword Sect,
but why did Wu Kong Sword Sect only send Zuo Mo alone? Because they are very clear that
Zuo Mo, who is able to create the formation-defense-style, would be able to create a safe place
by himself if he is given enough time. The Black Wind Bandits bully the island because there is
only Zuo Mo. What they fail to realize is that Zuo Mos offensive abilities might not be strong,
but if he is used to guard one island, he is more than enough. Zuo Mos growth has exceeded my
predictions.
Zuo Mo would only ever fight in an environment that is advantageous for him. The Black Wind
Bandits are not weak. To use force to overcome technique, they may have a chance at victory.
This will be something to see.
His speech made the thirty something zhuji under him enchanted. Everyone was in zhuji, but the
difference was just too great.
Then if a jindan expert came? Some people were still not convinced. Clearly, he was very
discontent about a zhuji being so arrogant.
If a jindan expert came, no one can stop them. Only jindan can stop jindan.
This zhuji could not say a thing.

Zhang Hao also realized that they could not break this turtle shell, even if they kept on
bombarding the island. The Black Wind Bandits were still wandering bandits in the end. They
moved like the wind and lacked strong offensive moves. Zhang Haos greatest wish right now
was that everyone would have a talisman like the Sky Flipping Seal, picking it up and throwing it
down heavily!
However, wandering bandits that travelled quickly like the Black Wind Bandits usually scorned
talismans like the Sky Flipping Seal. They were too difficult to transport.
The threads coming from the orange moon shook. The rings of light chimed endlessly, but they
did not break.
Zhang Hao was clear about the power of his flying sword. Even among the ningmai those that
could receive his sword head on would be those top ningmai experts.
He was the first one to save Zuo Han from Wei Shengs hands. Wei Sheng might have previously
been second to Gu Rong Ping, but Gu Rong Ping had steadily faded out of view. Wei Sheng had
quickly overtaken Gu Rong Ping as the most promising youth of Sky Moon Jie. Having gone
into seclusion after the Sword Test Conference, Wei Shengs cultivation had skyrocketed.
Everyone guessed he had found a method to break through to Heart Turn Sword Essence.
His amazing battles afterwards almost proved everyones speculations. From following Xin Yan
in the beginning, to quickly leading his own team, he battled in all directions, and never lost.
No matter if it was in reputation, or strength, he became the first expert in ningmai!
Zhang Hao was not as good as Wei Sheng, but if the ningmai of Sky Moon Jie were ranked, he
would belong to the rank of experts. However, he was usually low-key so he was not famous.
But the formation in front of him made him not know what to do.
Zhang Hao had experienced too many tribulations. He did not panic upon meeting a standoff. In
the end, Zuo Mo was just one person. No matter how strong the formation was, it needed people
to control it. A formation with someone controlling it and without were two completely different
things. Formations might have many wonders but in the end, it was still an outside aid. After

living through so many days on the blades edge, he clearly understood that the true substance of
a battle was still a matter of the two sides strength.
This was why true sword xiu experts did not like using other moves. Because they themselves
had enough power, and they had absolute confidence in their own strength.
Zhang Hao might not be a sword xiu expert, but he had the same absolute confidence in his
group of people.
He suddenly whistled, and everyone instantly stopped.
Kill! Zhang Hao charged into the formation first, Zuo Han following tightly after. The other
Black Wind Bandits did not hesitate, all of them charging into the formation.

Bo Feng who saw this from afar sighed,Zuo Mo has the initiative.
Having the initiative doesnt mean he is able to win, Someone said.
Bo Feng smiled and nodded, Thats true. But we will know after watching.

As Zhang Hao entered the formation, he found the scene in front of him change. He was
suddenly situated in the wilderness, empty and desolate. An orange moon hung in the sky,
exuding a warm light.
As expected, the other had some skill!
He praised inside. If possible, he would definitely have tried to get Zuo Mo to join the Black
Wind Bandits. However, he knew it was just a delusion. The other was a core disciple of Wu
Kong Sword Sect, would they even properly look at this group of wandering bandits?

He refocused and pushed down this unrealistic thought.


This was not the first time he had to solve a formation, but it was the first time he had faced such
a powerful formation. Even though he didnt understand the formation, but he was still confident
because the opponents cultivation was one stage below his.
For xiuzhe, one stage meant a difference in the basic attribute of strength.
He also had a small secret, a secret that no one knew: Heart Turn Sword Essence! His [Mountain
Opener Sword Scripture] had been cultivated to the stage of Heart Turn Sword Essence!
Holding the flying sword covered in a red light, he slowly proceeded. The red light became even
brighter, his body covered by a seemingly tangible red shield.

A five colored fan appeared on Zuo Hans hand. In the blink of an eye, a multi-colored mist
surrounded him, his figure gradually disappearing in the rainbow mist.

Wei Rongs face was pale, his tall and thin figure shaking in the wind like bamboo. He stared
around in terror, wanting to find his fellows, but there was no one in his sight.

Zuo Mos eyes were serenely cold. He was completely prepared, the ling power of his body
abnormally lively, but his mind empty and calm.
The prey had entered the hunting grounds!

His figure slowly became muddled and then disappeared.


His first target was Zhang Hao. Take the head first! Once he got rid of Zhang Hao, the other
people would become headless, and his chances of ambush would be greater.
Zhang Haos ningmai cultivation meant that he could not face him head on, but Zuo Mo had his
own methods.
Covered by the red light, Zhang Hao did not know that Zuo Mo had locked onto him. However,
even if he knew, he wouldnt feel fear, but would be even more excited.
Suddenly, he stopped, and waved the heavy sword in his hand.
A patch of red sword energies left his sword. The sword energy was extremely large, like a thick
red light curtain that blocked in front of him.
Ding ding ding!
Several sword energies hit the red light curtain and bounced off.
Zhang Hao smirked not slowling in his steps as he headed in the direction of the moon. The Wu
Kong Flag was a good talisman, and it was powerful. It was a pity that Zuo Mos cultivation was
too low, and could not release its true power. Sword energies of this degree could kill zhuji, but it
wasnt enough for ningmai like him.
He didnt know if this was controlled or just an attack of the formation.
He strode towards the crescent moon. He looked to be walking slowly, but it meant he was not
easily lost in the illusions. He flooded his legs with ling power. Each step would be like a large
hammer. A large hole would appear with each step. All illusions would be shattered. He was
taking advantage that Zuo Mos cultivation was not as high as him. This method was stupid, but
it was extremely effective.
Every formation would have a formation core. The core of the formation was the control center.
If he could destroy the formation core, the strongest formation would still collapse in an instant.
Zhang Hao steadily headed towards the moon. All kinds of sword energies along the way were
blocked off.
He used ling power to seal his ears to shut off the sounds that disturbed ones mind. He only
focused on walking forward. The sounds that could attack were all blocked by his heavy sword.

The more he walked forward, the more confident he grew.


Formations were very useful, but the difference in the two sides power was too large, it was
useless!
He had taken the initiative again!
Translator Ramblings: So the formation core might be the cover door thing mentioned way
back in the Sword Test Conference. I dont know why the author didnt use the same term this
time.
This is a somewhat ironic case of Bo Feng thinking too much. He thinks the Wu Kong Sword
Sect elders are much wiser than they really are. The Wu Kong Flag was Shi Feng Rongs deed,
and if Zuo Mo hadnt screwed up by learning more about formations from the sword essence
formation, he couldnt have made the formation as power as it is for Desolate Wood Reef. On the
other hand, even if he did get to heart turn sword essence, he still might have been sent as the
only person available in the sect who had been a core disciple to protect the retreat. Im not
actually sure if Pei Yuan Ran let Zuo Mo leave without additional manpower because he believed
Zuo Mo was strong enough, or because he thought that the boy hadnt died yet and is pretty
resourceful, but even if he died, its still alright since his offensive capabilities are not great and
his sword potential is limited.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Eighty


Nine Brewing
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, warlord212, and
cactuar0. Thank you so much for putting up with weird autocorrect errors from my phone these
last few chapters.
Chapter One Hundred and Eighty Nine Brewing
Zuo Mo did not expect that Zhang Hao would use such a straightforward method. He did not
assume that Zhang Hao would instantly find the formation core, but the Desolate Wood Reef was
just this little bit of area. With Zhang Haos speed, it would take him less than two hours to cover
it all.
If possible, he wanted to use a similarly straightforward method like [Moon Chime Sound
Storm] to just get rid of everyone. He had enough confidence that the [Moon Chime Sound
Storm] of a two hundred and sixteen child formation Skyring Moon Chime Formation would be
stronger than the formation at the Sword Test Conference, and might even get all of them in one
swoop.

However, he didnt have the confidence he could successfully release it!


The state at the Sword Test Conference was a matter of good fortune. The number of successes
that he had on releasing the [Moon Chime Sound Formation] with just the seventy two child
formation Skyring Moon Chime Formation could be counted on one hand, and a two hundred
and sixteen child formation Skyring Moon Chime Formation was many times more difficult.
There were two choices in front of him: one was to get rid of Zhang Hao before he found the
formation core, and the other was to get rid of everyone else while Zhang Hao was searching the
formation core.
Both choices had their pros and cons. Zuo Mo chose the first course of action.
Of all the people in the formation, Zhang Hao was the greatest threat to Zuo Mo and to the
formation. As long as the formation existed, Zuo Mos advantage would exist. But if the
formation broke, all his advantages would disappear. Without the formation, not mentioning that
he had to facing the sixty seven xiuzhe, Zhang Hao alone was enough to make him turn and run.
He might have defeated Chao An, but used all his cunning and numerous preparations. It did not
mean that he had the ability to battle with a ningmai expert. Further adding to his troubles was
the fact Zhang Hao and Chao An were not on the same level.
The two sides had not directly fought, but these two people did not dare to underestimate the
other.
Zuo Mo no longer had the time to think. The longer this dragged on, the more reactive he would
have to be.
He took out the Five Colored Pagoda which turned into a five colored light and flew underneath
the copper hoop. The orange Buddha Sound Hoop completely covered the Five Colored Pagoda.
No one noticed that the Skyring Moon Chime Formation had switched controllers.
Zuo Mo took out the Wu Kong Flag from the ground, and silently sneaked closer to Zhang Hao.
He had put down a lot of little illusory formations in the Skyring Moon Chime Formation.
Three zhang away, Zhang Hao stopped, his face full of wariness.
Zuo Mo was silently shocked. Zhang Hao seemed to have clearly detected him coming near. The
others consciousness was much weaker than his, but his sensitivity was not any lower.
What he didnt know was for xiuzhe like Zhang Hao, who had lived for long periods at the edge
of death, were sensitive to killing intent to a terrifying level.

His aims of ambush failing, Zuo Mo saw the situation and inserted the Wu Kong Flag into the
ground.
Threads of sword energies swam around the Wu Kong Flag, suddenly gathering and spreading
out.
Zuo Mo took a deep breath, his right hand reaching out flat.
The sword energies moving restlessly suddenly stopped. The inner sword essence suddenly
exploded!
Zhang Haos expression changed slightly. His response was very quick. With a Ha!, the heavy
sword in his hand chopped forcefully in Zuo Mos direction.
A crescent shaped crimson sword energy left the sword and shot at Zuo Mo.
Zuo Mo felt the red light flash in front of his eyes, and the others sword energy had reached
him, a broad sword essence pointing at Zuo Mos brow!
Such pure sword essence!
For some reason, Zuo Mo couldnt help but think of Wei Sheng Shixiong. Even though he didnt
know about the present Wei Sheng Shixiong, but the others sword had been very similar to the
past Wei Sheng Shixiong! The other was very skilled in sword scriptures!
Zuo Mo really jumped in fright. This person had seven to eight tenths the power of Wei Sheng
Shixiong at the Sword Test Conference. How could he not be shocked?
What he didnt know was this person, that he thought was unknown, was the Head of the most
terrifying and feared group of wandering bandits.
Even though he was shocked, he did not panic. Zuo Mos flat right hand turned to a point, and
tapped at the air in front of him.
Cling!
Like a sword coming out of the sheath, the silent sword energies suddenly gathered at the air
three cun from his fingertip.
His fingertip pointing at empty space, a blinding point of light. The sword energies surrounding
Zuo Mo flashed with light, forming a cocoon that was composed of countless lights of various
colors which shielded Zuo Mo.

The broad sword essence destructively hit the point of light in front of Zuo Mos fingertip.
Boom!
The red sword essence was instantly destroyed. Zuo Mos body shook uncontrollably taking a
few steps back. The sword energies gathered at his finger tip had been scattered.
It seemed that the two were even, but Zuo Mo knew he had slightly lost. The sword energies of
Wu Kong Flag came from jindan. Usually, Zuo Mo could not completely release their full power.
However, Zhang Haos blow was enough to make the sword energies successfully feel danger.
They automatically released the sword essences they carried to block the others move.
But quickly, Zuo Mo had no time to consider this. Zhang Haos second blow came!

Zhang Hao was not shocked that Zuo Mo could block his first blow. He had stolen and killed for
treasure many times, and his eyes were very experienced. He knew very well what Wu Kong
Flag was like.
He had great battle experience and knew what was most important at this time was to stick to the
other and not give him chance to breathe and set up, especially when it was a xiuzhe skilled in
formations like Zuo Mo.
Therefore, he struck out a second blow.

Zuo Mo took a breath, and pointed again.


Clang, the sword energies that had been scattered once again gathered at the empty space in front
of his fingertip.
Boom!

The power passed on by the red sword energy was much stronger than last time. Zuo Mo felt his
fingertip hurt and couldnt help but grunt, stepping several steps back.

Ha ha! Zhang Hao laughed, feeling pleasure. He stepped forward, raising his heavy sword
again.
Up until now, everything was much smoother than he had imagined.
As long as he killed Zuo Mo, everything was not a problem!
At this time, his heart suddenly shook. The chop of his heavy sword turned to a seal, and block in
front of his body.
Ding!
A large force came from the sword. The red light of the heavy sword in his hand flashed and
blocked the others attack.
Zhang Hao was very shocked. It sounded like it was one sword energy, but what he had blocked
was three sword energies! These three sword energies also came without warning and from an
unknown direction.
He didnt have the time to think. He felt his heart jump. Snorting coldly, the heavy sword was
placed in front of his chest as he struck his left palm heavily against the sword hilt!
The heavy sword turned to a dash of red light that circled around his body.
Ding ding ding!
The domineering and brutal heavy sword was as nimble as a little bird as it flew around him,
forming a curtain of red light. The sharp and dense sword energies could not break through this
curtain of light.
These sword energies were sharp and their paths were strange and hard to defend against, but to
experts like Zhang Hao, other than to dragging out the fight, they were ineffective.

Zhang Hao was patiently waiting for a chance. Zuo Mo could not keep going like this. These
sword energies were shockingly powerful, but the ling power used in releasing them would also
be astounding. With Zuo Mos zhuji cultivation, he would not be able to maintain it for long. And
as long as he was controlling the sword energies, Zuo Mo wouldnt be able to make any other
actions.
In other words, Zuo Mo seemed to have met a dead end. His attacks could not deal a killing blow
to the other, but the ling power was not enough to support him for a long battle.
Zhang Hao became slightly puzzled. He was very experienced and felt that something was not
right, but he could not identify it.
He decided to wait for the changes.
If he could see what Zuo Mo was doing right now, he definitely would not be so composed, and
definitely would not be waiting!

Formation disks flew out of Zuo Mos hands, and into position around Zhang Hao.
In the blink of an eye, Zuo Mo had thrown out more than a dozen formation disks.
Only when they had all been positioned did he feel slightly safer.
Multitasking. Zhang Hao didnt think that Zuo Mo could do several things at the same time.
This was due to the contribution of the [Great Thousand Leaf Hands]. Zuo Mo discovered that
after his consciousness turned to the leaf hand, he could do multiple things at once. He was
overjoyed at this discovery. It had to be said that multitasking was very useful in battle. When
both sides were fighting with flying swords, one could ambushed the opponent. This kind of
unscrupulous strategy was the dream of countless people.
But the reality was that no matter if it was sword xiu or other xiuzhe, when they were fighting
against enemies at the same level, they could not multitask. They could continuously switch
spells, but they definitely could not use two spells at the same time, unless they didnt want to
win.

It was not that it was impossible to cast two spells at once, but using two spells at once would
decrease the power of both spells. He had never heard of an expert skilled in multitasking.
Zuo Mo was able to multitask before, but that degree was completely minuscule compared with
now because of the leaf hand.
Zhang Hao never thought that Zuo Mo was able to multitask, controlling the sword energies at
the same time as he set up formations.
After setting up, Zuo Mo slowly closed his eyes, and pointed with his finger again.
Slowly, an unspeakable aura appeared on his body.

Hm!
Zhang Haos heart suddenly shook. Zuo Mos presence transformed suddenly. Everything in the
surroundings was very quiet, but the bad feeling in his heart became even stronger.
It was like in the space above his head, there was a pair of cold eyes looking at him indifferently.
Danger!
A strong sense of danger suddenly appeared. All the hairs on his body stood.
Zhang Haos expression changed greatly!
He believed his own intuition, the intuition that had saved him in countless bloody battles!
Feeling the strong terror in the heart of its master, the heavy sword flashed back into Zhang
Haos hands.
Holding the familiar hilt, the terror in Zhang Haos heart dissipated greatly. His mind jumped.
Not daring to hold anything back, all the ling power in his body furiously flooded towards the
heavy sword.
The red light slowly flowed like a sticky liquid. Zhang Haos eyes widened angrily!

Just as he prepared to act, three blue chains suddenly appeared out of nowhere, and headed
towards him.
Third-grade formation, [Dragon Tying Formation]!

At this time, Zuo Mo closed his eyes and had finished brewing his killing move.
The earth under his feet started to crack. The fine dust from the crack seemed to have been
affected by an invisible force, slowly floating upwards. On Zuo Mos forehead, a leaf shaped
symbol that seemed like a hand gave off a faint light, visible to all.
The finger that Zuo Mo had out was drawing in the air.
The places the finger drew past, the strokes curved, and gave of a faint light like starlight. In the
blink of an eye, an ancient character formed!
Translator Ramblings: For the person who commented about the pagoda, there you go!
The ramblings are my personal opinions and my opinions are subject to debate.
Warning: long paragraphs of ranting following 3 2 1
Back to the topic of Pei Yuan Rans decision I find there are two major sides to it. He sent
Zuo Mo to Desolate Wood Reef to keep him safe, or he was sent away into exile because he was
more of a burden. We do have Pei Yuan Rans own words that he wants to keep Zuo Mo safe but
its hard to for me to believe him entirely. Why? Because Zuo Mo has shown great skills in
survival. He managed to survive by himself for two years in the outer sect while there were inner
sect disciples more powerful than he was (*cough* Hao Min *cough*). He might be less
important in the sect at present since other and newer sect members are more powerful in terms
of cultivation than he is, but Zuo Mos status has never been based on his cultivation, but on his
skills. He became an inner sect member due to his ling farmer status, and he became famous due
to the Golden Crow Pill and his skill in formations, not because he showed how just how great
he was at fighting.
If Pei Yuan Ran really wanted to protect Zuo Mo, could Zuo Mo have gone above him and
refused if Pei Yuan Ran sent someone along? In a way, it looks more like Pei Yuan Ran thought

he made an investment that failed and decided to let it be. Nothing erases what the elders,
especially Shi Feng Rong, has done for Zuo Mo in terms of money for the formation, and it is
understandable that Zuo Mo, who has shown little battle abilities, is ranked lower than Wei
Sheng and Luo Li who is out fighting all this while.
The most valuable things Zuo Mo took from the sect were what Shi Feng Rong managed to get
out of the sect leader, the Wu Kong Flag, and the materials for the sect. The disciples that came
along are close to worthless. The wages for production xiuzhe has fallen, since people feel they
are less valuable, while sword xiu wages have increased. Similarly, Zuo Mo has dropped in
value. Pei Yuan Ran allowed Zuo Mo to leave with limited resources without a guarantee of
resupply and close to no combat members. For a management point of view, it seems like an
alright course of action since Pei Yuan Ran has seen that Zuo Mo has no talent at fighting the
proper way and cannot do much to help the sect. From other points of view, it is a ridiculous
decision. The leader just sent away what is one of their closest supporters (however weak he may
seem) into literal exile. What would Wei Sheng and Luo Li think when they know this? You just
showed all the newcomers to the sect that you are very pragmatic, and admitted that you are
weak and struggling to the point you cant protect one of your own disciples. Who among the
newcomers will support you if you look weak, even if the four elders hold a majority of power in
the sect?
Even if they thought Zuo Mo could survive all the dangers of the island (weird when you
consider they thought him weak and in need of protection), the elders are too inexperienced and
ignorant which is not their fault considering three thousand years of peace and how much of a
backwater Sky Moon Jie is, but Bo Fengs observations about the group and the expert is exactly
what the elders dont know, or realize the significance of. The elders are actually not bad people,
but they make decisions that show just how much they do not understand Zuo Mo, and the world
they live in. (Theres a rant there for a time in the future.)
Lastly, for investment purposes, Wei Sheng and Zuo Mo are nothing compared to Luo Li. The
inner sect members of that group, like Qin Cheng, were inner sect members from childhood,
meaning that they were taken into the sect based entirely on their potential and nothing they had
done.

Chapter One Hundred and Ninety Going All In

[Yang Fiendish Hard Lightning] of [Little Thousand Leaf Hands] !


Countless silver electricity snakes danced around Zhang Hao. The fine lightning tore at the air,
cracking like popcorn and suddenly rampaging.
Lightning was domineering and strong, usually preferred by xiuzhe. Even the sword xiu who
usually preferred purity did not disguise their preference for lightning. There were many
lightning sword scriptures, and they were not low-grade. Due to the different kinds of lightning,
the differing qualities would give the user many different abilities.
Hard lightning was a very common type of lightning. It was known for being strong and evilcleansing, the natural antidote to yin and corrupting spells. But the words Yang Fiend in front of
it, then it was extremely rare!
There were various ways to rank lightning , but in all these methods, the grade of Yang Fiendish
Hard Lightning was never ranked lower than fourth-grade.
Fiend: greatly ominous in character; Hard, especially strong and unbreakable.
When Yang, Fiend and Hard was put together, it was possible to see just how strong and
domineering it was.
Of the first three moves of [Little Thousand Leaf Hands], [Yang Fiendish Hard Lightning] was
the only direct offensive spell. Yet, Zuo Mo valued this one offensive spell like it was a precious
treasure!
Other than his formations, this [Yang Fiendish Hard Lightning] was the strongest move he had!
Starting with his killing move, Zuo Mo did not want to risk any uncertainty.
What he was still dissatisfied with was that the [Yang Fiendish Hard Lightning] that he cast was
only five zhang in diameter. This was why he had to risk nearing Zhang Hao, and it was also why
he had not used the move against the black cloud.
Zuo Mos mind was clear, all the ling power in his body serene, and the leaf hand created from
his spiritual power was like a real hand, the fingers moving rapidly!
[Yang Fiendish Hard Lightning] was a purely spiritual attack!

Zhang Hao who had been calculating how much ling power Zuo Mo had left never would have
thought Zuo Mo would have a purely spiritual offensive spell!
The electric snakes danced and instantly gathered into a burning red bolt of lightning!
As the red lightning took form, a domineering and destructive presence gathered tightly around
Zhang Hao!
Zhang Hao had detected the abnormality when the [Yang Fiendish Hard Lightning] formed. It
really made too much noise! His heart was in shock and he almost couldnt believe it. How could
a zhuji use such a powerful and terrifying spell?
The vast destructive presence almost took away his mind!
He was very experienced and vicious; he knew that he could not retreat now. If his heart held any
desire to flee, he definitely could not escape and would only die even quicker! Going against the
flow he faced the spell. Only by finding life in death was there a chance of survival.
All of his confidence and all of his conceit turned to dust in front of the [Yang Fiendish Hard
Lightning].
Zhang Hao was like a wolf that had been pushed to the edge, rousing all of his brutality.
His eyes wide, his hair standing on end, and the red light on his body was so thick it appeared to
be fresh blood. The heavy sword in his hand seemed to feel its masters decision and glowed
with brightness. A hint of black was added to the red light.
The red black light flashed and the blue chains on his body were destroyed.
He raised the heavy sword up high. With him as the centre, a vast presence suddenly exploded!
No one would doubt that his next strike could really break a mountain!
Kill! Zhang Hao howled as though he was insane. With all the ling power in his body, he
cleaved downwards.
The first move of [Mountain Opening Sword Scripture], [Open Mountain]!

At the same time, all the Black Wind bandits in the Skyring Moon Chime Formation stopped
what they were doing, with shock filled faces.
The presence of Zhang Haos ultimate attack had alarmed everyone.
The Head was going all out?
How was it possible?
That was the first response from the Black Wind Bandits. They couldnt wrap their heads around
it. Who could force the Head use all his power?
Just as they were shocked, they heard Zhang Haos angry bellow. Everyone realized that Head
really was fighting with all his power!
The Black Wind Bandits did not hesitate to fly towards the bellow.

At this time, Bo Feng who was looking from far away suddenly gasped, his eyes lighting up,
Zhang Hao is going all out!
Gui Feng was slightly startled. Chang Heng did not speak, but the light that increased in his eyes
revealed his surprise. The two became even more wary of Bo Fengs unmeasurable strength. The
entire Desolate Wood Reef was tightly locked down. They were very far away and could not see
a thing.
It was terrifying that Bo Feng could judge so accurately.
However, Zhang Zhao was going all out
The sentence quickly filled their thoughts. When had Zuo Mo become so strong that he could
force Zhang Hao to fight at full power? The two of them were not Zuo Mo. In the period of time
they had followed Bo Feng, they had constantly tracked the Black Wind Bandits and were clear
regarding how strong Zhang Hao was.

Gui Feng and Chang Heng knew. The other thirty six xiuzhe also knew.
None of the other analysis that Bo Feng did were as effective as this one sentence.
A zhuji had truly forced Zhang Hao to fight at full power!

So many people could feel Zhang Hao was going all out, so Zuo Mo, who was closest, could he
not feel it? But at this time, he didnt have the energy to spare to think. All of his attention was
on this series of attacks.
As the red sword energy sliced down, Zuo Mos vision was entirely red. That suffocating
presence would make one tremble instinctively.
Zuo Mo did not tremble.
Completely in battle mode, there was no joy nor sorrow in his heart, no emotion at all. His mind
was clear and could detect any change within five zhang of him.
He suddenly understood.
[Little Thousand Leaf Hands] must be used with [Great Thousand Leaf Hands] to be able to
reach its maximum power.
Every hand motion of the spiritual leaf hand flowed across his mind. He was like a bystander,
silently savouring the profound changes embodied in each hand movement.
It seemed to be a long time, but it was just a short instant.
The lightning of [Yang Fiendish Hard Lightning] was as thick as an arm, twisting and giving off
a faint red light.
Zhang Haos sword energy was another kind of red, a bloody red that carried hints of black.
The two powerful red lights accurately clashed!
Boom!

A little sun suddenly formed between Zuo Mo and Zhang Hao.

The Black Wind Bandits that had rushed over were blinded by the light and stopped in their
tracks. Some weaker xiuzhe wailed and covered their eyes.
Ding ding ding!
Messy chimes suddenly sounded.
Pew pew pew!
A bloody hole had suddenly exploded on the chest of several of the Black Wind Bandits.
[Micro Void Arrow] of the [Skyring Moon Chime Formation]!
Lil Pagoda was controlling the Skyring Moon Chime Formation and had grasped the rhythm
perfectly. The flash of Zhang Hao and Zuo Mos attacks had lit up without warning. Many of the
Black Wind Bandits had been caught unaware and Lil Pagodas [Micro Void Arrow] was clearly
a level higher than Zuo Mo.
Seeing a big hole explode in the chest of their compatriots, the other Black Wind Bandits paled!
Only now did they remember they were on dangerous grounds!
The Skyring Moon Chime Formation had previously given off a feeling of a turtle formation and
had not shown any offensive qualities. This had caused them to slightly relax. That level of
relaxation wasnt enough to be fatal originally, but when the news that Zhang Hao was in danger
was passed to them, their instructive choice made this relaxation quickly grow.
Any little change could cause an avalanche of responses.
The Five Colored Pagoda was Zuo Mos soul-tethered talisman and could be considered Zuo
Mos second mind. What Zuo Mo knew, it also knew; Zuo Mos viciousness and cunning meant
that the Pagodas wasnt any less.

Zuo Mo felt the leaf hand suddenly shake. A trembling came from deep within his soul.
Everything around him suddenly became blurred.
His spirit had been wounded!
At this time, the turbulence of his energies passed into his heart.
Splat!
Uncontrollably he spat out a mouthful of blood.
How could it easy to take in a full-power attack from a ningmai?
Zuo Mos state of mind could not avoid being affected by the injury to his consciousness. The
terrifying presence given off by the combined sword energy and the Yang Fiendish Hard
Lightning made him instinctively fearful!
He wanted to turn and run!
But he forcefully pushed down the impulse and terror inside, his finger quickly drawing in the
air.
[Void Pass] of [Little Thousand Leaf Hands]!
The sword essence and lightning that had charged towards him made a strange turn and brushed
dangerously past his body.
At the same time, another part of Zuo Mos mind controlled the sword energies of the Wu Kong
Flag!

Zhang Hao looked much worse off than Zuo Mo. [Yang Fiends Hard Lightning] was fourthgrade. Even though Zuo Mos power was limited, but the strangeness of the attack method was
extremely effective against Zhang Hao.
At the moment the sword energy and the Yang Fiendish Hard Lightning struck each other, he was
injured like Zuo Mo!
At that time, his injuries were much less severe than Zuo Mo. The two were too close. He knew
that Zuo Mo received heavier wounds and probably did not have the power to attack. Such a
good chance to retreat, would he waste it?
In any case, Zuo Mo was already wounded. The rest could be left for his brothers to do! Zuo
Mos endless bag of strange tricks had created a psychological shadow in him. He wanted to
retreat.
Zhang Hao, who had decided to retreat, his expression suddenly changed!
Gathering his remaining strength, he barely managed to pull the heavy sword in front of him.
Clap clap clap!
Three sharp notes heavily struck his flying sword. It was Lil Pagod taking advantage to ambush
him.
If he was uninjured, the three [Micro Void Arrows] would just be a minor threat to him, but being
heavily injured he had almost staggered and fell to the ground.
This was like the start of a nightmare.
Zhang Hao, who wanted to leave the fight to find his fellows, discovered three blue chains came
out of nowhere lightning fast and latched onto him.
He instantly lost his mind!
[Dragon Tying Formation], [Three Talent Sword Formation], [Dipper Formation]
All third-grade formations. He could see it was all formations released by formation disks. The
power was not strong. Usually, Zhang Hao wouldnt pay attention, but right now, they were
messengers of death!
How many formation disks had this guy thrown out

Zhang Haos face was black as mud!


But he was a wise man and knew he did not have an avenue of retreat now.
The ball of light behind him could explode at any time. If he was hit by the ripples, he didnt
have a chance of survival.
Eyes red, Zhang Hao stumbled and forced his way through the formations with his heavy sword,
disregarding his wounds.
He was covered in blood, his clothing torn!
Finally out!
As the thought appeared, a sharp and dense sword energy took over his vision.
His eyes only saw snowy white. He could almost see a snowy white dragon proudly swaying!
Translator Ramblings: Lil Pagoda shows how cunning it is.
Fang Xiang plays with tropes and breaks the typical mold. The best example I can think of at the
moment is Pu. Pu is the omniscient-master-grandfather-archetype that is found in a lot of other
stories. However, hes quite different because he doesnt always help Zuo Mo, and drags him
down. His actions of taking away jingshi can irritate people, and his attitude is terrible.
Additionally, he fails. The best comparison I can give is Yao Lao from Battle Through The
Heavens. That person is a great mentor who really aids in cultivation, provides knowledge, and
can make money, while Pu provides (dangerous and sometimes useless) knowledge, takes money
away from his host, and hampers Zuo Mos cultivation. Also, I dont think Ive read about a
powerful and knowledgeable archetype be unable to make money. Its quite ironic considering
how important jingshi is to the story and the main character that Zuo Mos golden finger cant
make money directly for him like in other stories. Other characters get into bidding fights at
auctions and throw money around while Zuo Mo counts his pennies.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Ninety One


The First Battle of the Yin Fire Bead
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter One Hundred and Ninety One The First Battle of the Yin Fire Bead
Zhang Hao was sliced in two by the ice dragon sword essence.

Zuo Mo couldnt suppress his injuries anymore and spat out another mouthful of blood!
That amazing ice dragon sword essence had not been cast by him directly, but through him using
countless sword energies to construct it. The copycat sword essence was not very pure but the
power was not something Zuo Mo could reach himself. The sword energies of Wu Kong Flag
came from jindan experts and were extraordinary.
Already on the last of his strength Zhang Hao did not muster a response to the sword strike.
Zuo Mo wiped the blood from his mouth. His body was deathly tired. Using the sword formation
while injured was his limit.
He grinned, a bit of madness flashed through his eyes.
So what if he was ningmai? Fight with ge, gell kill you!
Glancing at the corpse on the ground, Zuo Mo thought for a moment and then took it into his
ring. This guy probably had a lot of good things. However, it wasnt time to view his spoils, Zuo
Mo thought regretfully.
He must first resolve the ball of light!
Zhang Haos sword energy and the [Yang Fiendish Hard Lightning] had merged into a ball of
light. He really did not understand it. However, he didnt have the time to ponder it. If this thing
exploded, all of Desolate Wood Reef would probably be flattened.
The ball of light was like a miniature sun. Zuo Mo could clearly sense the terrifying ling power
contained inside.
His little heart jerked and beat rapidly. He hurriedly asked, Pu, what to do with this?
Run! Pu Yaos response did not contain anything unnecessary. He sighed helplessly, Im too
weak now, and cant even deal with a little thing like this, He sounded very reflective.
Even Pu Yao couldnt deal with it
Zuo Mos heart froze, his mouth volleying, Arent you a Sky Yao?
Pu Yao smirked, Its not there are no ways, there just arent any you could use.
Zuo Mo paused. Did he really have to run?

But on this vast expanse of ocean, where could he run? Even if he had just killed Zhang Hao, the
other side still had four more ningmai. He definitely would not be able to escape.
No, there had to be a way There definitely had to be a way!
Zuo Mo said to himself.
The miniature sun shook slightly. Even the ripples it gave off was frightening. The close he
went, the more Zuo Mos heart shook.
Inside was a brutal ling power that could explode at any time!
Such a waste of ling power! Zuo Mo wanted to criticize Zhang Haos wastefulness. This absurd
thought suddenly turned to a stroke of lightning.
Ling power!
This light ball contained ling power and hard lightning!
Wasnt this an enormous jingshi? Except this jingshi was slightly dangerous
He opened his eyes as he had an daring idea.
The trembling of the miniature sun seemed to increase. It was becoming less stable.
Zuo Mos heart shook. The time did not allow him to think more. The idea he just had was bold
but at least he could see hope.
Different materials appeared on his hands, his speed at maximum. He wanted to have a few extra
pairs of hands as he furiously set up formations.

The expressions of the Black Wind Bandits were both shocked and suspicious. They all stopped
moving.
The Heads presence had completely disappeared!
After that earth-shaking impact, Heads presence had completely disappeared.

Had the Head been killed?


This absurd idea was like a poisonous viper that slowly corroded their remaining courage.
The big formation still existed. If the Head had won, the formation definitely would have broken.
Heads presence had disappeared, but the big formation was still present
Realizing that Zhang Hao was in trouble, every persons first response was to go give aid. Yet,
knowing that Zhang Hao had been killed in battle, their first response was flee!

In the blink of an eye, Zuo Mo had finished setting up a formation.


What he set up was a Four-Turn fire formation, one that used the light ball as a replacement for
jingshi. This idea was incredibly daring. The light ball was extremely unstable and could explode
at any time. From any perspective, this idea was preposterous.
It might have been the stimulation of danger that caused Zuo Mos thoughts to be usually clear.
He swept the fire formation quickly. No mistakes! He released a breath and then his eyes became
serious. Reaching out with his right hand, he started to draw in space.
The second move of [Little Thousand Leaf Hands], [Leaf Birth]!
In empty space, a green character of light took form. Immediately, the character shattered and the
green pieces of broken light merged into the fire formation.
The green pieces of light were like seeds which rapidly germinated and grew.
In the blink of an eye, the fire formation was crowded with patches of green leaves. What was
miraculous was that the unstable ball of light seemed to become more stable, not giving off the
feeling of danger any longer.
Zuo Mo finally released a breath!
The fire formation started to turn.

The restless ling power from the light ball was absorbed by the leaves, and turned to an endless
and continuous steady flow of ling power.
Zuo Mo wiped the sweat off his head. He had been extremely nervous just now. If he had made
the smallest mistake, this close to the ball of light, not even ashes would remain of him. Even Pu
Yao hadnt dared to disturb him then.
It was the first time he used [Little Thousand Leaf Hands] with formations. From the present
result, it seemed he had succeeded!
After learning [Void Pass], Zuo Mo had learned [Leaf Birth]. In Zuo Mos mind, [Leaf Birth] had
been an extremely useless spell. Its only effect was to regulate chaotic flows of ling power.
If he could regulate the ling power of his opponent then it meant he could resolve the others
attack. It was a pity that this [Leaf Birth] could only be used on the ling power existing in the
world and did not belong to anything. The ling power of the light ball came from Zhang Hao, but
Zhang Hao was dead so this connection had disappeared, making it orphaned ling power. Zuo
Mos [Yang Fiendish Hard Lightning] was just taking and using ling power that existed in the
environment.
Zuo Mo had never expected that the most useless move of the three moves of [Little Thousand
Leaf Hands] would save his life!
Killing a strong enemy, staying alive after a tribulation, the joy of success, and the fear
Several emotions were tied together, the feeling was indescribable.
The bright red lines of fire crossed in the air. While heat rolled away from it, Zuo Mos heart
suddenly moved and he had another idea.
Why didnt he use the opportunity to temper the Buddha Sound Hoop? The BuddhaSound Hoop
was almost complete. If it could be successfully tempered, then power of the big formation
would definitely increase.
Looking at the bright orange moon, it might have been killing Zhang Hao or merging [Little
Thousand Leaf Hands] with formations, but his confidence had grown. Beckoning with his hand,
the Buddha Sound Hoop flew into the fire formation.
The bright red fire was like a furious wild beast continuously gnawing on the copper hoop.
Zuo Mo glanced at it and shook his head. The grade of the flame that was in the fire formation
was too low. The grade of the Buddha Sound Hoop was not low and it was hard to temper.

He suddenly thought of the Golden Crow Fire he possessed and face palmed. He was too dumb
to have forgotten about such a good thing!
The Golden Crow Fire was the finest of fourth-grade flames and it had a very beneficial quality
of being able to easily merge to other flames. The price of Golden Crow Fire wasnt low, but Zuo
Mo knew how to create it and naturally would not be frugal.
He threw nine mini boxes into the formation.
As expected, the power of the fire formation increased with the addition of nine wisps of Golden
Crow Fire. A hint of pure gold appeared in the red fire. The Buddha Sound Hoop which had been
still finally showed signs of finishing tempering.
The rest required time.
Zuo Mo looked closely for a while and made sure they wouldnt be any problems before he
turned to leave.
He shoved a large handful of lingdan into his mouth. The ling power inside his body shook.
However, Zuo Mo still could feel the weakness from the heavy damage to his body under the
fullness of his ling power. It was not wise to use medicinal power to suppress wounds. However,
the battle was far from finished. He knew it was harmful to his body but still did it.

Lil Pagoda was very skilled at controlling the [Skyring Moon Chime Formation]. However,
those in the formation were not average people.
Up until now, the greatest damage that Lil Pagoda had done to the other side was the series of
attacks it had done when Zhang Hao and Zuo Mo had clashed. Other than that, it had not
achieved any results. None of the remaining four ningmai had been injured.
Zuo Mo was connected to Lil Pagoda and so he knew the situation inside the formation.
He set his target on Zuo Han. With the guidance of Lil Pagoda, he could easily find Zuo Hans
position.

Zuo Hans figure was concealed inside a rainbow cloud of poison. When the [Micro Void Arrow]
hit the poisonous mist, it did not have any effect.
Zuo Mo wasnt stupid enough to touch the poisonous mist. If he accidentally touched it, relying
on the second-grade detoxification dan he had made was akin to seeking death.
However, in the eyes of Zuo Mo who had just killed Zhang Hao, the power of this guy who used
poison was much lower than Zhang Hao.
Silently sneaking near Zuo Han, a yin fire bead appeared in Zuo Mos hand.
He usually did not dare to use the yin fire bead. This thing was incredibly powerful, but if it was
exposed, the trouble it would bring would be far beyond what he could deal with. But right now,
he didnt have to worry about this problem. The entire Desolate Wood Reef was concealed by the
Skyring Moon Chime Formation. People outside could not see a thing, and people inside were
separated by illusory formations.
It was definitely a good chance to use the yin fire bead.
Originally, he had planned to use it in Zhang Hao. But Zhang Hao had detected him coming
closer so the first battle of this yin fire bead landed on Zuo Han.
Zuo Han was completely ignorant that Zuo Mo had already come close to him. His heart was
insecure.
The other people were still doubtful but he was almost certain that the Head was already dead. In
the middle of the wilderness, he felt the surroundings were cold. Even with the protection of the
poison mist, he couldnt feel a hint of warmth.
The only thing that reassured him was the orange moon in the sky had become much dimmer.
The formation probably couldnt not be maintained for much longer.
Up until now, he had not encountered one other person.
His expression changed. It came again!
Ding ding ding!
Three invisible sound arrows entered the poisonous mist. Just like the previous times, he lightly
channeled ling power. The poisonous mist flowed strangely and the three sound arrows
disappeared.

The other was always very sudden in sending sound arrows. However, his poisonous mist was
the perfect counter of straightforward spells.
Ding ding ding!
A storm of sound arrows shot at him without warning!
Zuo Han was very calm. The poisonous mist slowly flowed around him. The sound arrows that
entered the mist seemed to have sunk into quicksand, rapidly disappearing.
A small cold smile suddenly floated into his dark face. It was useless!
Suddenly, he detected a small object had hit his poisonous mist. It wasnt a sound arrow.
His expression abruptly changed. He instantly reacted. The storm of sound arrows had been to
provide a cover for this little object!
Damn it!
The outside layer of the poisonous mist was dyed a bone white.
Coldness followed the white color as it spread with astonishing speed. Terrified, Zuo Han didnt
have the time to even make a response. The coldness blew through his body like the wind. He
froze to his spot, his body a frozen and eerie white statue, frightened expression shown to all.
Translator Ramblings: Everything is jingshi to Zuo Mo, even large unstable balls of energy. To
the commenters that wanted the yin fire bead, here you go!
The sect is a major entity in many Chinese wuxia and fantasy novels. Many times, the sect is this
gigantic force in the area, and there are many branches in the sect that compete against each
other. Then there are events such as missions, annual fighting tournaments, and competitions
against different sects.Master-disciple relationship are akin to parent-child relationships. Also
common are mysterious pasts of the masters and inheritance of disagreements by the next
generation.
Wu Kong Sword Sect is pretty typical as Fang Xiang has written it, and all the infighting does
occur on a minimal level. Fang Xiangs tournament and sect events seems more like a tribute to
these commonly-used events, but hes off on his own thing. Its also quite rare nowadays in
popular novels for the main character to tie or lose fights and tournaments like Zuo Mo has done,
but Zuo Mo cant lose all his fights since that means he wont progress.

Shi Feng Rong isnt the typical master. First, shes female, which is very rare for a master as she
is not a part of Zuo Mos harem (he doesnt have one), or his main love interest. Teacher-student
flirtation is very common in many stories, but not in this one.
Shi Feng Rong also differs from the traditional role in that she does not offer great amounts of
resources, ie. money or precious treasures, or pass extremely rare skills to Zuo Mo. Wu Kong
Sword Sect appears more like a business rather than how a traditional sect works. Shi Feng Rong
is Zuo Mos manager in upper management when Zuo Mo moved up from low-level laborer to
skilled laborer.
Shi Feng Rong is a complete contrast to Pu Yao, and despite how little she taught, she was
instrumental in getting Zuo Mo started with the Golden Crow Pill and his path to wealth.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Ninety Two


Buddha Sound Hoop
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, Brian, and warlord212.
Chapter One Hundred and Ninety Two Buddha Sound Hoop
Zuo Han crumbled away in the wind, only leaving behind a few talismans. The poisonous fan
and mist had been frozen into ice by the yin fire bead. Despite this, Zuo Mo didnt feel it a pity.
That poison fan was not very endearing, and the glow of the remaining talismans were very
good.
It was a pity there wasnt the time to admire them one by one, so Zuo Mo threw it all into his
ring.
Zuo Mo sighed. What he sighed at was not the power of the yin fire bead, but the maximWe are
sword xiu, whatever we need we will take it with our sword! that the sect leader and others
always said.
Battle was truly one of the fastest ways to gather wealth!
He had just killed two ningmai, and the talismans and jingshi he received were enough for him to
feel his wallet swell up.
With the powerful yin fire bead as his support and the temptation of extreme wealth, Zuo Mos
eyes turned red.
His gaze as he turned on the other xiuzhe was like he was staring at a delicious and fat sheep!

So much jingshi!
At the same time, a Buddha sound rang out. A bright gold light appeared inside the formation
and headed for the clouds.
Joy came only Zuo Mos face. The tempering of the Buddha Sound Hoop was complete!
The Buddha Sound Hoop had turned from red to gold and did not feel like copper but a hoop of
gold. Lightning occasionally flashed across the golden hoop. Had the Hard Lightning from the
ball of light also been absorbed by the Buddha Sound Hoop? Zuo Mo was overjoyed.
Each time the lightning flashed, the Buddha Sound Hoop would sound out with a deep and
dignified ring!
At this time, the environment of the Skyring Moon Chime Formation suddenly changed. A bright
sun hung high up in the sky, warm golden light falling down. The thin strands that fell down
were dyed gold. The rings of light on the gold wire turned from a clear moon color to gold.
The serenity of before was swept away. The feeling of the present formation was like standing
under the sun, destroying all evil!
The remaining Black Wind Bandits felt something completely different. Before it was like they
were in the wilderness, scary and dark. Now, they stood before a burning sun. They had moved
from a cold wilderness to a hot and burning desert. When touched by the ripples of Buddha
sounds, those with weaker minds easily lost all of their motivation.
The Black Wind Bandits inside the formation were all cruel people who lived on a knifes edge.
Their minds were not so weak, but they felt wave after wave of pressure!
The previous Skyring Moon Chime Formation made people wary of the sudden ambushes. The
present formation demanded that they channel ling power at all times to defend against the
Buddha sounds. The offensive power of the formation was stronger now!
No wonder Zuo Mo was so happy. It was like someone delivered a pillow to him just when he
wanted to nap!
With the yin fire bead and the completely transformed new formation, his chances of victory had
risen against this group of bandits.
Zuo Mo quickly changed ideas. Previous, he had planned to wound as many as possible. Now, he
decided to not let even one of them go. Each one was so much jingshi!

These criminals whose hands were soaked in blood, let ge release you from your mortal coil!
Zuo Mo thought righteously.
At this time, Zuo Mo was like an experienced hunter. He wasnt in a hurry to pull close the net.
His consciousness was connected to Lil Pagoda. He slowly went through all the changes in the
new formation. The changes of the Buddha Sound Hoop were so drastic even he needed to
accustom himself.

The Black Wind Bandits inside the formation started to panic. The Heads presence had
disappeared, his status unknown. After landing inside the formation, they had become like a
crowd of flies, not knowing what to do.
The new formation increased the pressure on them. The sounds that permeated everywhere
needed to be fended off with ling power, further increasing their consumption. They were not
greenhorns. What they were most afraid of was situations like this when they needed to keep
using ling power.
On the battlefield, ling power was the greatest support of a xiuzhe, and experienced xiuzhe would
carefully control the consumption of their ling power.

Lil Pagoda really lived up to being a soul-tethered talisman. The new changes of the Buddha
Sound Hoop flowed through Zuo Mos mind. Zuo Mo instinctively praised it and hadnt
expected a joyful emotion to pass onto him from Lil Pagoda.
Zuo Mo first stilled and then was stunned.
Did Lil Pagoda really have its own emotions and thoughts?
The formation process of Lil Pagoda had been very mysterious. Zuo Mo still felt there were
many impossible places even now, but in his eyes Lil Pagoda was just a talisman. It originated

from his consciousness and was connected to his mind. Usually, Lil Pagoda would frequently
reveal a personality, but Zuo Mo only felt it only a rudimentary intelligence. He had never
thought that Lil Pagoda would really have his own sense of self.
When a talisman developed its own sense of self, it was called ling cognition.
The thought that came from Lil Pagoda made Zuo Mo realize that Lil Tower had ling cognition!
Heavens! How was it possible?
Any talismans that could have ling cognition were the finest and greatest talismans without an
exception. Zuo Mo felt that he was very luck that he had a soul-tethered talisman and had
stumbled into a pile of jingshi.
A soul-tethered talisman that had ling cognition!
Oh!
The sudden good fortune made Zuo Mo vibrate in excitement. His eyes glowed as he looked at
Lil Pagoda as though he wanted to shove Lil Pagoda into his mouth! Lil Pagoda instantly
shrank back timidly, the five levels of its body shaking.
Come come come, good son, let Daddy take a good look at you! Zuo Mo drooled as he
beckoned at Lil Pagoda, his expression unspeakably wretched.
Lil Pagoda could be considered to be half a son of his. Its ling cognition came from his
consciousness.
Lil Pagodas body shrunk into a ball and trembled.
After closely examining for a while, he could not see anything. Helplessly, he could only release
Lil Pagoda.
He pondered that he needed to take the time sometime to recall how he had forged Lil Pagoda.
He dreamed of himself surrounded by light, a procession of soul-tethered ling cognition
talismans that did not end behind him, it would be amazing!
He would only steal from wandering bandits. Anyone that would resist, all the soul-tethered
talismans would bang down on their heads!

Fantasizing about himself grandly sweeping all directions, something suddenly hit his waist.
Looking down, he found it was Lil Pagoda. Zuo Mo refocused and wiped the saliva off the
corner of his mouth.
Lil Pagoda was reminding him the wandering bandits wanted to flee.
Flee?
Zuo Mo snickered coldly. Before, he had still been wary. Now, this remaining bunch of
wandering bandits were just meat on the chopping board.
The Buddha Sound Hoop had risen to fourth-grade previously. The tempering this time had not
increased its grade, but the power had risen. It had fire, sound, and lightning. The fire was the
Golden Crow Fire that could rank in the top ten of fourth-grade fire. The lightning was fourthgrade Yang Fiend Hard Lightning. The only regret would probably be the Buddha Sound
formation carved on the hoop, it was only third-grade. Otherwise, this Buddha Sound Hoop
would definitely be a rare top-level fourth-grade talisman!
But even so, the present Buddha Sound Hoop definitely could be an upper-level fourth-grade
talisman.
After talismans reached the fourth level, due to the increase in power, they needed to be divided
even further. Fourth-grade talismans, the highest were the top level; they were the most
outstanding fourth-grade talismans. Coming down, it was the upper, intermediate, and lower
levels. However, talismans that were soul-tethered and had ling cognition like Lil Pagoda were
above the top level.
The upper fourth-grade Buddha Sound Hoop, adding on the soul-tethered talisman Lil Pagoda
that had ling cognition, the yin fire bead that could instantly kill ningmai, and the third-grade seal
soldier that Zuo Mo had not used yet.
Zuo Mos confidence rose. He discovered that he had so many killing moves!
Such a good chance, would Zuo Mo let these Black Wind Bandits escape?
Lil Pagoda flew into the sky, once again taking control of the big formation. The light illusions
of the big formation changed. The Buddha Sound Hoop slightly vibrated, waves of sound
passing outwards like water.

Inside the formation, the Black Wind Bandits felt the scenery changing. The pressure that had
been somewhat ethereal before became strong. Calls rang out in their ears, a strong feeling of
numbness made them unconsciously stop moving, like there was a voice muttering in their
minds, Sleep, just sleep for a while
Their eyelids were strangely heavy, the wariness disappearing from their hearts. Their hearts
gradually became calm, the desire for sleep increasingly strong.
The Black Wind Bandits were very experienced. Pushing away their fright, they could only
speed up the circulation of their ling power to fend against the sound.
They finally realized the longer it dragged, the more disadvantageous it was for them.
They all sent their killing moves at almost the same time!
Numerous sword energies and talismans shone as they rushed into the sky, shooting for the
burning sun in the sky!

The last attack of the Black Wind Bandits before their death frightened Zuo Mo. The smugness
in his heart instantly dissipated. His little heart beat rapidly. If the target of their attacks was him,
not even dust would be left behind.
Clang!
The Buddha Sound Hoop suddenly shook!
The golden light exploded, the sound was like thunder. The deep and dignified sound turned into
the angry shout of Buddha, strong and fierce! The Black Wind Bandits inside the formation felt
their bodies shake, the ling power inside their body out of their control. Everyones faces
changed. When they raised their heads, their faces became pale. Countless fist-sized hard
lightning rolled down along the thin strands like marbles.
The big formation turned at its highest power. A deep and domineering presence destructively
spread, unable to be stopped.

Zuo Mo gaped. So powerful! The counter-attack from the Buddha Sound Hoop wasnt any less
powerful than the [Moon Chime Sound Storm] of the Sword Test Conference!
The Buddha sounds were like anger, and the hard lightning like rain!
The Black Wind Bandits lost their minds. These fist-sized hard lightning wasnt as strong as
when Zuo Mo used them, but this was still the true Yang Fiend Hard Lightning! The domineering
Buddha sounds had not disappeared, their ling power out of their control, just as the hard
lightning fell upon them!

Wails and swearing entered Zuo Mos ears.


The body count was high! After this one attack, not even thirty of the Black Wind Bandits could
still stand. Many Black Wind Bandits were wailing and groaning in puddles of blood. The faces
of the still standing Black Wind Bandits were full of hopelessness, their eyes terrified.
Peerlessly domineering!
Zuo Mo sighed in shock and then felt heart pain. The golden light and lightning around the body
of the Buddha Sound Hoop was clearly much dimmer than before. He hurriedly took the Buddha
Sound Hoop back. If this happened again, the Buddha Sound Hoop would probably be
destroyed. Even if it wasnt destroyed, the grade would definitely drop.
It had been so difficult to obtain an upper fourth-grade talisman, could Zuo Mo bear to have it
destroyed?
Even more, the wandering bandits that had lost all motivation and he didnt need the Buddha
Sound Hoop to subdue them anymore.
He and Lil Pagoda could get them!
The harvest was about to begin. His gaze was hot as he turned back to the formation, rubbing his
hands. Lil Pagoda, connected to his mind, was also yearning, and excited.
Just at this time, Pu Yao suddenly came out.

Wait.
Translator Ramblings: Zuo Mos fantasies are so interesting.
My personal theory, upon further re-reading, was that Pu Yao was trying to force Zuo Mo to
accomplish something similar to the leaf hand during the Sword Test Conference when he told
Zuo Mo to multi-task but Zuo Mo ended up with Lil Pagoda since he had no idea what Pu Yao
wanted and he entered the weird state. Pu Yao could have also been playing with Zuo Mo since
its not so easy to form a leaf hand.
Fang Xiang, in his last remarks at the end of the story, admitted that he was not very good at
writing cultivation stories. One of those major flaws is probably a lack of a true description of
how essence works exactly. For example, understanding of formations do not have levels, but
sword essence does. Sword xiu can have epiphanies and modify or level up their sword essence
like Zuo Mo did when he merged his two sword essences. Formations are something that has to
be constantly studied and is more similar to a puzzle. Magic systems are hard to construct and
the lack of formation essence is something that is skipped over. Power systems based on
understanding alone is amazingly easy for a main character to level up on. Someone in danger,
an insult, a leaf falling to the ground, they are all great excuses for your character to level up.

Chapter One Hundred and Ninety Three Bountiful Harvest
When Pu Yao came out, Zuo Mos first response was, Two hours havent passed yet!!
He was still thinking about the promise that Pu Yao had made. If he could get rid of this group in
under two hours he would learn the next move of [Little Thousand Leaf Hands]! Zuo Mo
hungered for the [Little Thousand Leaf Hands]. Of the three moves of [Little Thousand Leaf
Hands] that he had learned each move had played a crucial role in this battle. The [Little
Thousand Leaf Hands] were all very good spells. If they were not powerful then they had special
uses.
Most importantly, what it consumed was spiritual power and not ling power. To Zuo Mo
presently, spells that used spiritual power were much more practical than spells that used ling
power.

I changed my mind, Pu Yao said.


Hearing this, Zuo Mo was infuriated, What did you say? Changed your mind? I just finished
busting my ass off, and you changed your mind?
Pu Yao waved his hands, he wasnt angry, Ill teach you a move of [Little Thousand Leaf
Hands].
Zuo Mos anger instantly extinguished and turned to curiosity, Then what did you change your
mind about? One move of [Little Thousand Leaf Hands] being guaranteed he naturally was
calm.
These people should not be killed, Pu Yao said, his expression deep.
Not be killed? Zuo Mo stilled, Keep them for what? These people dont blink an eye when
they kill, it would cause problems to keep them.
From any angle, Zuo Mo was not a generous and kind person. Also, to speak of kindness with
these wandering bandits that killed without batting an eye, that was purely seeking death. It was
better to take everything from their bodies and then kill them.
Constructing the Nether Pool requires manual labor, Pu Yao said.
Oh, you arent afraid of them rebelling? Zuo Mo pointed at the crux.
I am a Sky Yao! Pu Yao rolled his eyes. The implicit meaning was, to a honored Sky Yao, this
was just a little problem.
Zuo Mo smirked, and didnt give him any face, Sky Yao? Who told me to run back there?
Pu Yao paused, his old face slightly red.
Zuo Mo didnt dare to provoke this guy. He pointed at the Black Wind Bandits inside the
formation, and said, Manual laborers dont need talismans, right?
Pu Yao waved his hand generously, No.
Zuo Mo looked with some sympathy at the wandering bandits. Landing in the hands of a
perverse renyao, it was a fate worse than death! It could be imagined just how dark their future
days would be.
However, Zuo Mo was not kind due to feeling sympathy.

He and Lil Pagoda, one in the light and one in the dark, used the power of the formation to beat
the wandering bandits unconscious. Zuo Mo didnt even leave them any clothing, taking
everything, before he contentedly threw a bunch of naked people at Pu Yao.

The Skyring Moon Chime Formation and the moon in the sky disappeared from the Desolate
Wood Reef. There was nothing left except one big pit after another, showing that a battle had
taken place here.
Bo Feng who had been watching from afar shook his head, his tone carrying wonderment, It
seems all of the Black Wind Bandits are dead.
The Black Wind Bandits were dead!
As the words came out, everyone was shocked. They had been pursuing the Black Wind Bandits
recently. The longer they trailed them the more uncertain they felt. The strong strength that the
Black Wind Bandits displayed made them lack self-confidence. The only confidence they had
was that they had more experts on their side. Bo Feng, Gui Feng, and Chang Heng were ningmai
experts that were famous in Sky Moon Jie.
But even if they had three experts, they had thought if the two sides met it would be a hard battle.
Who would have thought a zhuji, relying on a formation on an island, in a period of time less
than two hours, had completely killed all of the Black Wind Bandits!
Chang Heng and Gui Feng looked at the Desolate Wood Reef which had resumed its normal
appearance and instantly understood. Gui Fengs expression was full of disbelief. He had fought
Zuo Mo before. Any way he viewed Zuo Mo, Zuo Mo should not have grown to such a point that
he could kill all of the Black Wind Bandits by himself. If it was Wei Sheng, he would have found
it somewhat possible.
Cheng Heng looked much more composed. Even the light in his eyes had dimmed greatly. He
seemed to be pondering something.

Zuo Mo did not know people were watching him. He was contentedly checking his spoils, Lil
Pagoda observing from the side. Silly Bird had ran out. However, Silly Bird was much more
composed than Lil Pagoda, raising her neck up high, her attitude proud as she stepped her little
bird steps, as though she thought of jingshi as dirt. However, the occasional glance out of the
corner of her eye revealed her nefarious aims. The black gold worm directly burrowed into the
little mountain and didnt come out.
The other shidi came out. They felt as though they were dreaming.
They first saw Zuo Mo Shixiong, and then they saw the mountains of talismans and jingshi!
After that, they turned to stone.
Zuo Mos eyes were bright, saliva dripping out of the corner of his mouth that he did not wipe
away.
Good things! Good things!
He picked up one, and then picked up another, his expression intoxicated and occasionally
laughed.
However, the practical Zuo Mo decided he needed to check his personal wealth. He might have
made a mountain of profit, but he had also spent a lot. No matter if it was Golden Crow Fire, or
yin fire bead, they were not cheap. The cost of recovery for his wounds, and the nurturing of the
Buddha Sound Hoop were also not going to be a small number!
He needed to break even.
Click-clack, click-clack, Zuo Mo started to pick through the pile. He rejoiced that he had the
experience of processing materials with the Stalagmite fire before. The numbers of items that had
passed through his hands was enormous, and helped create his keen pair of eyes.
The profits this time were very rich. There were more than a hundred flying swords, but their
grades werent very high. The highest grade was Zhang Haos heavy sword, fourth-grade, the
sword body was ancient and thick, extremely heavy in the hand, and carved with Mountain
Opener.
Other than flying swords, there was a variety of talismans that broadened Zuo Mos horizons.
There were some extremely obscure ones, like nets. One Blue Light Net, third-grade, when it left

the hand it would become a blue ball of light, if one came close then it would turn into an
enormous net that would quickly close.
The wealth of the zhuji was limited. Those that were rich were the several ningmai, especially
Zhang Hao. This guy had two dimensional rings to start with, and the riches inside were
numerous. Also, the guy had been very picky, and what he had kept were very good items.
Like the materials he collected were not of low grade. The majority were third-grade, and he had
some fourth-grade materials.
What excited Zuo Mo the most were five fox teeth. These five fox teeth clearly came from the
same yao fox. Each tooth was pure white with no impurities, shining like porcelain. A fragrance
that was like orchids and plums spread. The appearance showed it definitely belonged to the top
third-grade materials.
The quality of the Water Drop sword was very good. If he forged in the fourth-grade Crimson
Fire Rock that he had, the two qualities of fire and water could reach the demands of Li Water
sword essence. Adding on the Teeth Vine, and these five fox teeth, and the Blue Icicle Crystal he
had traded for from the red-robed male, he had managed to gather the materials for four of the
five flying swords. Instantly, he felt the five essence sword set was not far.
He was only lacking proper earth-based material before his five essence sword set could be
realized!
Most of the talismans on Zhang Haos body were not ordinary, but most had been damaged. Zuo
Mo felt a great pain. Those were all lost jingshi!
The other talisman that peaked Zuo Mos interest was a cloak. This cloak was called
[Shadowless]. It was as thin as a cicadas wing and hard to detect with the naked eye. If worn on
the body, it would seem to disappear. However, even though he could not see it, Zuo Mo could
still feel the existence of the cloak. This [Shadowless] cloaks only purpose was to conceal his
body. Zuo Mo was even more surprised that it was a fourth-grade cloak!
He tried it on, and the effect was outstanding. He couldnt find a trace even if he used his
consciousness to search.
Good thing!
This was definitely a good thing!

Zuo Mo instantly recognized the value of the cloak. This was a wonderful talisman to make an
escape! If things were going badly, he could wrap the cloak around his body and no one could
find him.
He found it somewhat strange the person he had killed didnt use a talisman as good as this, and
used a third-grade cloak.
What Zuo Mo didnt realize was the Black Wind Bandits had run rampant for years. Other than
being defeated by Wei Sheng recently, when had they ever been forced to escape? When Zhang
Hao first got the cloak, he treasured it. Then he found he didnt have a use for it at all. While the
cloak could conceal him, it basically had no defensive power, so Zhang Hao switched to a thirdgrade talisman that could increase his defenses and was beneficial to charging and fighting.
Zuo Mo naturally wouldnt be polite, cheerfully putting the cloak on.
With two extremely fine talismans as the opener, Zuo Mo instantly looked down at the remaining
talismans.
However, these people all had a unique quality of carrying many jingshi on their body. Zuo Mo
understood after thinking about it. These wandering bandits travelled everywhere. Nothing was
as useful as jingshi, so they could buy whatever when they got somewhere.
All of this was Zuo Mos now. This was an enormous sum. Like Zhang Hao. He had more than
ten pieces of just fourth-grade jingshi.
When he put all the jingshi in front of him, he was stunned! He felt that his eyes were filled with
jingshi.
Even the best talisman, if put together with jingshi of equivalent value, it didnt have the same
effect as piles of jingshi.
After a long while, he finally recovered from the shock of the mountain of jingshi, his blank eyes
becoming clear.
He took a deep breath, and hurriedly swept the jingshi into his ring. Continuing to judge the
other talismans, his mind was slightly inattentive.
Hm! Pu Yaos voice suddenly came into Zuo Mos ears.
Zuo Mo shook and suddenly refocused. He found that Pu Yao had appeared at some unknown
time beside him.

Pu Yao stared at a white bone on his hand, his eyes unmoving.


Zuo Mo instinctively waved the bone, Problem?
Pu Yao was still staring at the bone, his hand reaching out, Let me see.
Oh, Zuo Mo instinctively handed over the bone.
Once he handed it over, he instantly realized, and regret blossomed. He was an idiot. Something
that even Pu Yao was interested in, it definitely was something good!
Having landed in Pu Yaos hands, it definitely was using meat buns to hit a dog, it would never
return!
As expected, Pu Yao flipped his hand, and the bone disappeared. He was very natural in saying,
Oh, Ill take the bone.
Zuo Mo instantly wanted to spit blood. He knew he definitely wouldnt be able to take it back.
He responded quickly, Then what do you trade for it?
Ill give you a batch of little yao guards, Pu Yao didnt give Zuo Mo the grounds to bargain.
Little yao guards? Whats that? Zuo Mos attention was instantly attracted.
Pu Yao snickered, Youll know when it is time. Finishing, he disappeared.
Dejectedly, Zuo Mo could only go back to his pile of talismans in hopes he would find a few
more fine ones. It was a pity that his good luck seemed to have been used up. The rest were all
very average and made him even more depressed.
When he finished sorting out the last talisman, he suddenly heard a light laugh from the
sky,Brother Zuo really had a good harvest!
Translator Ramblings: Yes, the crocodile spikes are water element as well, but since he already
has the sword to stand in for the water element, the spikes are not needed for his sword set.
Thanks for all your comments. I have to say it is humorous when I read comments about the
storys pacing. I think the Sword Test Conference is the greatest example and you guys have
learned. Great foundation work long before the actual event, descriptions of everything that goes
on from different perspectives, and then Zuo Mo does his thing in a relatively few chapters.
Expect more of that. *evil laughter*

Something that is lacking in this story is the trash, garbage, useless person talk and labels.
Battle Through The Heavens and other early stories got popular and they inspired many other
stories that started with the same premise, an untalented youth that astonishes his critics and
then defeats his enemies.
In a way, it is humorous if these people are described at a young age in the story, ie. teens.
Whats wrong with a little rivalry and trash talk between children? Then you have fully grown
adults being reincarnated, and getting into a rage, and humiliating the people who bullied the
past him. The answer that Zuo Mo might give to these people would be something like Will
this make jingshi? Time is jingshi!
Zuo Mo is an independent person without any support net who has to worry about his living
expenses and how to survive. Rivals, bullies, and mortal enemies drop down the priority list
when a person is trying to not starve. In a dog-eat-dog world, it is a luxury for those that have
money and spare time to indulge in. Those who are low level workers on the poverty line like
Zuo Mo and Old Black think more about survival. Dont expect young-master syndrome until we
really meet some rich people.

Four Golden Armor Guards
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummmiOfDoom, warlord212, and

Chapter One Hundred and Ninety Four Golden Armor Guards
Zuo Mo looked warily at the three unwelcomed guests in the sky.
The one that spoke was a yellow-faced man. Zuo Mo recognized him. It was the mysterious
person he had fought in the Sword Test Conference. The two people behind him was Chang
Heng and the other was Gui Feng. How did these three get together? he muttered inside.
And these three appeared at this time was that a coincidence? More likely it was that the three of
them had hid and wanted to gain something. Seeing that he had won, they could only come out
and greet him.
Zuo Mo was at the end of his rope. He didnt dare to let these three people inside. The three were
stronger than him and he had just also made a fortune. If the three became greedy, he might not
be able to keep his little life.

This little brother just has gone through a big battle and is heavily injured, and greatly needs
rest. There is no time to greet everyone. Please pardon me! Finishing, he rushed away.
That nimble and agile movement, did he look like he was heavily injured?
The three people in the air were speechless. They had assumed that Zuo Mo would exchange
pleasantries, and they could find ways of getting closer. But they had underestimated Zuo Mos
lack of shame, in turning and leaving. They couldnt do a thing.
If they forcefully landed now, that was taking advantage and declaring they possessed malicious
aims. The three people didnt care about those fake reputations, but when they saw the huge
holes in the ground, they instantly dismissed the idea of charging in.
Personally seeing the Black Wind Bandits be destroyed the three were very wary of the
formation on Desolate Wood Reef.
Zuo Mo ignored the three people. If they really dared to charge into the Desolate Wood Reef, he
would even gamble on destroying the Buddha Sound Hoop to fight them to the death.
When he saw the three standing outside the island, his heart relaxed slightly. He secretly sent Lil
Pagoda out to guard. He threw the Buddha Sound Hoop back into the lava fire formation to be
nurtured again and started to heal himself.
This time, the level of damage to his body was far beyond his predictions, especially since he
had kept on fighting with these wounds, and had used medicinal power to suppress the injuries.
On the surface, there didnt seem to any problems, but in reality, he had serious internal injuries.
Luckily, Master had prepared many lingdan for him before he left. He hadnt thought he would
need to use it so early.
He shoved a lingdan into his mouth and meditated.
As the lingdan entered his mouth, it turned to a stream of coldness that flowed with the
circulation of his ling power, spreading to every corner of his body. The hidden heat of his organs
instantly decreased. He felt unspeakably comfortable.

Forty-two people were soaking in the black pond. Their eyes were closed, occasionally having
expressions of pain. Threads of smoke silently entered their body from the black pond water and
then slowly spread out.
Pu Yaos eyes landed on the three ningmai Black Wind Bandits. They were completely covered
in black, looking like coal. A small bump had risen on the foreheads of the three people as
though something was going to grow out.
Pu Yao played with the white bone in his hand, speaking to himself, Didnt think I would see
ancient dragon bone here. The brat really has good luck. Oh, using it on ningmai trash, it really is
a waste!
As he sighed, he slightly applied force. Pa, the white bone broke into pieces.
His hand rising, the ancient dragon bone power turned to three white arrows that burrowed inside
the bodies of the three ningmai.
The three ningmai instantly started to shake like dice, their black faces twisted with expressions
of extreme pain. Suddenly, their black skin started to ripple and a layer of scale-like material
continuously came out.
In just this little while, the three had completely changed. Their bodies were covered by a dense
layer of white scales like it was a layer of thick armor. The bump on their foreheads continued to
grow. Pew, a sharp black horn broke through the skin, and only stopped when it grew to three
cun long.
White Scale Attendants! The ancient dragon bone is really good, Pu Yao had a surprised
expression. Then he became excited. Tilting his head and thinking, he snickered, and then
grabbed at empty air.
Three jade boxes appeared on Pu Yaos hands, the mini boxes that Zuo Mo loved so much.
Squeezing the jade boxes, Pu Yao gently blew and three wisps of Golden Crow Fire flew at the
three people.
The Golden Crow Fire landed on the white scales and with a hiss and entered their bodies.
Almost at the same time, mist rose around their body. The black pond water beside them started
to bubble as though it was boiling.
Seeing that the black pond was covered in mist Pu Yao became even more excited. He was like a
mischievous child who had found a fun toy.

He grabbed again at empty air.


Ding ding ding!
If Zuo Mo saw this, he would have been so angry he could spit blood. Pu Yaos hands were full
of Crimson Fire Rock, including three pieces of fourth-grade Crimson Fire Rock. Zuo Mo only
had six pieces of fourth-grade Crimson Fire Rock. Pu Yao took half of his stock.
Pu Yaos left hand pointed in the air. A black-red beguiling flame appeared in front of him.
He threw the Crimson Fire rock on his hands into the flame. He continued to grab at the air,
materials appearing in his hands. He didnt even look before throwing them into the fire.
After one hour, the flame slowly faded, and three entirely red broadsword appeared in front of
him.
The broadsword was about half the height of a person, the width of the blade making them
appear like a small door. The body was entirely red like burning metal, giving off a scorching
heat.
At this time, the mist over the heads of the three people in the black pond dissipated, revealing
their figures. The scales of the three were dyed with a layer of gold, making them look as though
they were wearing golden armor. The black spike on their foreheads had disappeared.
Before, the three had looked dark and scary. Now, the three didnt have any hint of dark energies,
as though they were gods coming to the mortal world. A yang and strong presence was easily
detectable.
Ancient dragon bone, Golden Crow Fire, Nether Pool, these yao guards that were forged really
make me anticipate!
Pu Yao smiled proudly, White Scaled Attendants, no no no, have to change the name, Golden
Armor Guards! This name isnt bad. Ha ha, who can tell they are yao guards?
Rubbing his chin as he studied for a while, Pu Yao said to himself, Oh, no, they are too ugly,
and need to be changed.
He blew out a ball of flame that grew and enveloped one of them. Instantly, the crackle of flesh
burning sounded. A while later, the flame moved away. The person inside the flame had changed
in appearance. Right now, his body was covered in a set of golden armor. Even his face was
covered all over, the thick armor at the front only revealing the eyes. The shining golden scales

had turned into a golden fish-scale armor. Other than being very dignified, it was more profound,
and mysterious.
Pu Yao finally had a satisfied expression. Soon after, all three were modified.
Three bright red broadswords turned to three red lights and flew towards the three people.
The three simultaneously reached out and grabbed the flying swords. The three golden armor
guards stood silently, a strong and dignified presence slowly spreading.
Pu Yao looked in sympathy at the other Black Wind Bandits that were still soaking in the black
water pond, You guys who cant be seen in public, you just have to stay here for manual labor.

When Zuo Mo woke up from his meditation there was joy in his heart. The injuries on his body
were generally healed. It would be like nothing had happened once he rested for a while. What
he was even happier about was the ling power that had stopped growing inside his body for a
long time had actually grown slightly.
The increase was not a lot, but for Zuo Mo who had stopped growing for a long time, this was an
unexpected happy surprise.
Just as Zuo Mo was happy, he saw Pu Yao proudly come over with three people dressed in
golden armor.
Zuo Mo stilled and warily pointed at the three people, Who are they?
The three were covered in the golden armor. He was unable to see their features but Zuo Mo
could feel the terrifying presence the three gave off all over their bodies.
These three were very strong!
Zuo Mos perception was extremely sensitive due to his spirit. The danger that these three gave
him even surpassed the feeling of danger the Head of the wandering bandits gave him. Where did
these three powerful people come from? Where did they pop out of?
His gaze landed on the broadswords in their hands, and silently swallowed.

Who was so f***ing wasteful?!


Crimson Fire Rock, definitely not less than ten pieces, and definitely had more than one piece of
fourth-grade rock. Sky Eye Silver, that was extremely expensive; Zuo Mo himself only had three
taels. Any of the broadswords in the threes hands definitely had one tael of Sky Eye Silver
added. And the red flame pearl. It was an extremely good fire element material, worth a thousand
jing! There were at least three in each broadsword.
Great expenditure! Definitely great expenditure!
Zuo Mo drooled. Just the three broadswords were worth a lot! If it wasnt the dangerous feeling
coming from the three people pressuring him, his head might have heated up and he would have
gone to rob them.
But, the materials, they looked very familiar
Just as he was suspicious, he heard Pu Yao say smugly, They are Golden Armor Guards! Just
finished making them, do you want to try?
Golden Armor Guards? Zuo Mo stilled, Didnt you say you were creating little yao guards?
Little yao guards are too low quality, Pu Yao said with scorn and continued, and their
appearance is too lacking. Look at these Golden Armor Guards. No hint of yin energy, perfect for
dominating a situation. They are also very strong and good at fighting, the best fighters!
Really? Zuo Mos face was disbelieving.
You ignorant country bumpkin naturally has never seen anything this high quality! Pu Yaos
face was full of disdain, and he snapped his fingers.
Suddenly, one of the Golden Armor Guards behind him disappeared.
Ha! A deep bellow sounded.
Zuo Mo felt the space in front of his eyes light up, a blinding light forcing him to squint his eyes.
A domineering and forceful red sword light rose. This stroke seemed to rip apart space. A
scorching, cruel, and domineering presence filled the air.
Zuo Mos heart was shocked, the hairs on his body straight. The feeling of danger was like a
black cloud filled with lead, pressing down uncomfortably on his chest.

The sword light disappeared without warning!


At some unknown time, the golden armor guard returned to his original position.
Only now did Zuo Mo hear a soft hiss. Different than the blinding sword light, the sound of the
sword was almost non-existent.
Zuo Mo was stunned!
Translator Ramblings: Zuo Mo is so amazed by how powerful these Golden Armor Guards are
that he hasnt realized what Pu Yao has done yet. Also, more importantly, his ling power
cultivation has grown for those that were waiting. Please dont forget Zuo Mos overall strength
has been growing this whole entire time. Zuo Mos outstanding in other areas, and not bad in this
area. Think about Li Ying Feng, Gongsun Cha and Chun Yu Chengs cultivation. They are about
the same age and they are only outstanding in one or two areas.
In Pus eyes, people below ningmai are something to be ashamed about. Thats not hard to
believe since he is was still remains a Sky Yao (soul). He was once pretty much at the top of the
pyramid as far as this world goes. Remember, he was the guy who killed a few jindan in a multiopponent battle while using Zuo Mos body. Xin Yan is exceptionally strong for a jindan. So you
could say Pu Yao was forced to go from being a marbled lungfish to the bacteria which causes
leprosy (think the size of their genomes.)
Power seem to be one of those quantitative factors that people in stories focus on. I thought that
this story actually did a good job hitting its readers over the head with the paper crane girl and
her carelessness and indifference concerning the might is right rule. It showed that this story
still held to the same rules of society that most Chinese fantasies have, and it shouldnt be
forgotten among Zuo Mos desire to make a living and all the daily happenings that make it seem
like a peaceful world. In fact, Zuo Mo is hit over the head many times.

Chapter One Hundred and Ninety Five Two Transactions
The strength of the Golden Armor Guards made a deep impression on Zuo Mo.

But what are they really? Zuo Mo asked as he pointed at the three muscle-heads. The three
Golden Armor Guards were very brawny. Standing with their swords, they were like three little
mountains whose sole purpose was to pressure others.
Puppets, Pu Yao said softly.
Oh, Zuo Mo responded. A strong impulse formed to study these three puppets. There were
many ways to create puppets. The most famous would probably be corpse-forging. Things like
thousand year corpse were the best corpse-forging materials. Seal soldiers were also one kind of
puppet, but they were completely different than corpse-forging.
But when he thought about that astonishing sword strike, he decided to stop thinking about this
dangerous idea.
His eyes stared at the red broadswords in the hand of the three Golden Armor Guards. A beat
later, Zuo Mos heart wrenching wail came out of the cave.
Old Ghost! Ge will kill you! Sob sob sob! My Crimson Fire Rock! My Sky Eye Silver

In the sky above the Desolate Wood Reef.


How much longer do we have to wait? Chang Heng said impatiently.
He he, he would come out soon, Bo Feng was very calm. At the side, Gui Fengs eyes
occasionally swept across the Desolate Wood Reef. Different than what they had thought: it
wasnt just Zuo Mo on the Desolate Wood Reef; there were also Wu Kong Sword Sect disciples.
However, these disciples were all production xiuzhe.
At the beginning, these disciples would occasionally look up at them. As time went on, they
attended to their own business.
The Desolate Wood Reef looked calm but many important places were covered with white
clouds so nothing could be seen. These balls of cloud proved that the big formation of the
Desolate Wood Reef had not been critically damaged.

Gui Feng felt that Zuo Mo was very mysterious. He was somewhat puzzled why Wu Kong
Sword Sect would send such an important disciple to such an isolated place? Was it because they
had trust in Zuo Mo?
He didnt feel that way. While the importance of the Desolate Wood Reef was undoubted, no
matter how great their trust was, the elders shouldnt have been frugal in sending along a few
more strong disciples with him.
Such an accomplished disciple, he didnt believe any sect was willing to lose him.
But Zuo Mo was guarding Desolate Wood Reef alone. This made Gui Feng feel it was more of
an exile.
The Black Wind Bandits had all been killed. If this news spread, it would definitely shake all of
Sky Moon Jie. Zuo Mos own reputation and the reputation of Wu Kong Sword Sect would be
pushed to another height.
Gui Feng glanced at Bo Feng. There was no impatience on Bo Fengs face. They had been
guarding here for five days. To show that they didnt have any enmity he hadnt brought any of
the thirty six zhuji.
Gui Feng saw Zuo Mos figure appear out of the corner of his eye, his mind becoming alert.
Hm!
His gaze swept across the three enormous figures behind Zuo Mo, Gui Fengs pupils suddenly
shrunk into pinpoints!
The golden scale armor covered their entire body, the dense scales flashed with a pure golden
sheen. Their faces were covered by gold masks, which only revealed a pair of eyes.
The three guards dressed in golden armor simultaneously looked at the three people in the sky.
When Gui Fengs eyes met the three peoples eyes, his heart shook.
The three pairs of eyes were strange but all similar in that they were indifferent, cold, and
emotionless. Gui Feng even felt that they were dead! He could feel that he was just an ant in their
eyes, unable to cause even a ripple.
Suddenly, Gui Feng felt he was burning in a fire, an almost tangible pressure forming, and
pushing down like a little mountain.

Gui Feng snorted coldly, his body moving slightly and circulated his ling power.
The invisible pressure around him instantly disappeared.
Successfully getting rid of the others pressure, Gui Feng did not feel joy at all. Quite the
opposite, his complexion was very bad. The two seemed to be even, but Gui Feng knew he was
at a disadvantage.
Such a powerful expert!
Was this Wu Kong Sword Sects hidden strength? He narrowed his eyes.
Bo Feng and Chang Hengs expressions became serious. Their thoughts were the same as Gui
Feng. These three xiuzhe covered in golden armor and cultivations above ningmai, and their
strength was very strong! Even though they could not see the features, but the thick killing intent
covering the three was the killing intent that would only form after countless battles.
No wonder the Black Wind Bandits were all killed. So the Desolate Wood Reef was also hiding
three experts. The three people rejoiced that they hadnt charged in. Facing any of these golden
armor xiuzhe, even Bo Feng didnt have a certain grasp on victory.
Ningmai had three stratums. Gui Feng and Chang Heng were only at the first stratum, but the
three golden armor xiuzhe were all above second stratum.
The difference between ningmai and zhuji was large, but the difference between ningmai were
also similarly large. The cultivation of ningmai second stratum was three times that of a first
stratum ningmai!
Their cultivation was not as good as the other; their battle experience not as good as the other;
their talismans
They looked at the burning red broadswords. Those were clearly not normal and definitely had
reached the fourth-grade. The two sides were even. What they had the greatest confidence in was
spells. Gui Feng was very confident in the [Nine Ghosts Nail Curse] that he was practicing.

In Zuo Mos sea of consciousness, Pu Yao muttered, Pity about the baldy. Hes good material
for making Golden Armor Guard.
Zuo Mo did not pay attention, his eyes looking at the sky.
This time, with the three Golden Armor Guards around him, even though his wounds had not
completely healed, he still had more bravery.
Thank you for waiting for so long, is there something I can help with? Zuo Mo did not like to
chit-chat, and said forwardly.
Bo Feng did not twist, and said, This one has two matters to ask.
Oh, Zuo Mo was slightly surprised. He hadnt thought the other really had a matter, and two of
them at that.
Brother Zuo killing the Black Wind Bandits is really a happy matter, Bo Feng said, I want to
buy some news from Brother Zuo.
Black Wind Bandits? Zuo Mo stilled and then reacted. So his attackers had been the Black Wind
Bandits, no wonder they were so strong! His minds whirling, he quickly responded, What
news?
Bo Feng started at Zuo Mo and said seriously, I want to buy the position of a secret realm from
Brother Zuo.
Zuo Mos heart jumped. Secret realm!
He truly was shocked by the words secret realm. Zuo Mo had missed the secret realm
exploration after the Sword Test Conference because he had been thrown into the sword essence
formation. It had been a regret of his. He hadnt thought that he would suddenly hear information
about a secret realm.
Bo Feng suddenly running over to ask him the location of the secret realm, the clever Zuo Mo
instantly realized where the information about the secret realm would come from.
The Black Wind Bandits!
Definitely the Black Wind Bandits!
Pu Yao reacted even more quickly than he did, and had more tricks. In the blink of an eye, he had
gotten the answers he wanted from the manual laborers that were still soaking in the black pond.

Hearing Pu Yao speak of it, Zuo Mo understood the general shape of the matter, and instantly
was disappointed.
The first people to find the secret realm were the three of the red-robed xiuzhe. For some reason,
the news had been leaked, and they were targeted by the Black Wind Bandits. However, the three
were extremely slippery, and tricked the Black Wind Bandits, almost clearing out the entire
secret realm before fleeing.
Zuo Mo finally understood why the three people had so many good items on their body. So it had
been a secret realm!
He had admiration and disappointment. However, a secret realm that others had gone through did
not hold any attractions to him.
However, he wouldnt give the information so easily to Bo Feng. The cleared out secret realm
might not have anything good, but the ling energy of the secret realm was dense and perfect for
making a residence. It was not very useful for him, but to the sect, it was very good.
Bo Feng evidently wanted this secret realm.
Ha ha, Zuo Mo smiled, but his wooden expression looked very strange,How does Brother Bo
want to buy it?
Speaking about business he became alert. In any case he had the initiative. He could sell or not
sell. The red-robed man and his fellows had run to Little Mountain Jie, and definitely wouldnt
be coming back soon. The only people who knew the location of the secret realm were the Black
Wind Bandits, but all of the Black Wind Bandits were soaking in the black pond.
Even if he didnt sell its location to Bo Feng and sent the news back to the sect, he would get
many rewards.
But in the deepest part of his heart, Zuo Mo didnt plan on telling the information to the sect. If it
was in the past, he definitely wouldnt have hesitated in reporting the information to the sect. But
the only person he missed in the sect right now was Master. The present Wu Kong Sword Sect
was not the Wu Kong Sword Sect of the past that had felt like a home.
If it wasnt for Master, he wouldnt have any supplies. He wouldnt even have had the Wu Kong
Flag. If he came to such an isolated place as the Desolate Wood Reef, he would have more
dangers than lucky encounters.
He couldnt help but ball up his hands.

Destiny, it was more reliable to grasp it in his own hands.


Ha ha, Bo Feng laughed lightly, he seemed to have already had a plan, I will use a piece of
news to exchange with Brother Zuo.
News? Bo Fengs suggestions was out of Zuo Mos expectations.
Bo Feng said generously, Brother Zuo should look first. If you are not satisfied, we can keep
negotiating, Finishing, his finger flicked and a jade scroll shot at Zuo Mo.
Pia!
A golden palm reached from behind Zuo Mo and accurately grasped the jade scroll.
Bo Feng smiled and didnt speak. Inside, he praised Zuo Mos carefulness.
Zuo Mo took the jade scroll, and lowered his head to read.
There was not much inside the jade scroll, but after reading the last word, Zuo Mo felt he was in
a glacier, his entire body cold.
How is it? Is Brother Zuo satisfied? Bo Feng asked.
Zuo Mo took a deep breath, and then bowed with folded hands at Bo Feng. He said seriously,
Many thanks, Brother Bo. Finishing, he took out an empty jade scroll, entered the position of
the secret realm, and threw it to Bo Feng.
Bo Feng took the jade scroll. After reading it, joy appeared on his face. When he finished, he
crushed the jade scroll to powder.
Brother Zuo is really refreshing! Bo Feng said crisply, This one wants to ask for a wisp of
Golden Crow Fire from Brother Zuo, please help me!
Golden Crow Fire? Zuo Mo nodded, If Brother Bo has earth elemental materials above
fourth-grade, a deal can be made.
He didnt ask for a high price. The news that Bo Feng had just given him was too important!
Bo Feng could not control his joy, We really have good fate. This one luckily has a piece of
Breathing Rock, and of high quality. It should fulfill Brother Zuos demands.
Trade! Zuo Mo did not hesitate in nodding.

In fourth-grade earth element materials, Breathing Rock was a rare fine material. It usually
existed in the deepest parts, a special earthy grey that naturally clung together, unable to be cut
with anything metal.
Zuo Mo was excited. He finally gathered together everything for his five essence sword set!
Translator Ramblings: If Pei Yuan Ran had his way, Zuo Mo would have been packed off to
Desolate Wood Reef with his allowance of jingshi and not much else. After so many chapters, Bo
Feng finally gets what he was pursuing. It was almost too simple since Zuo Mo did the work for
him.
A Problematic Youth ended right after the Sword Test Conference. We are in Volume Three of
the story right now, the title being Seeking Survival On A Desolate Island. The title was too
much of a spoiler since this volume started when Zuo Mo woke up with Wei Sheng and Luo Li
in Fragrant Ginger Yard. We have passed the one-fifth mark of the entire story.
Nothing to really ramble about today. What are your guesses about what Bo Feng sold Zuo Mo?

Chapter One Hundred and Ninety Six News
At Wu Kong Mountain, Shi Feng Rong had a face full of fury, Why?
Pei Yuan Ran was helplessly apologetic. Too far! Even if we tell him, he wont be able to get
back. Unless he is jindan, he cant get back in three days.
Then I wont go to Bright Wave Jie! Ill go get him! Shi Feng Rong said decisively.
Nonsense! Pei Yuan Ran was furious. Looking at the pain and anger on Shi Feng Rongs face,
he suppressed the anger inside and said in a low voice, There are so many experts in Bright
Wave Jie. Whether our sect can establish ourselves in Bright Wave Jie, it all depends on us
jindan. In our time of need, will Shimei abandon the entire sect for just Zuo Mo?
Shi Feng Rong bit her lips tears flowing down uncontrollably.

Pei Yuan Ran relaxed his tone of voice, Shimei, dont worry. Zuo Mo is usually clever. He
definitely will be fine. After we establish ourselves in Bright Wave Jie, we can send people to
search for him!
Pei Yuan Ran comforted Shi Feng Rong for a long time before she was finally persuaded.

When Lin Qian saw Pei Yuan Ran, he saw the others face was dark, and assumed that Pei Yuan
Ran was worried for the future. He comforted, Sect Leader Pei, do not worry too much. This
one has some weight in Bright Wave Jie and will definitely pick a good land for your sect.
Pei Yuan Ran raised his hands in thanks, but he stared at Lin Qian and said solemnly, This one
still has one thing that that he does not understand. Master Lin, please explain a few things to
me!
Oh, please speak, Sect Leader Pei, Lin Qian said.
Master Lin has no connection to our sect, so why have you been so close with our sect as of
late? Pei Yuan Rans eyes were bright.
Lin Qian seemed to have already know that Pei Yuan Ran would ask this, and smiled, If thats
the case, then I will speak the truth. It is because I see potential in Wei Sheng. Wei Sheng is the
most talented xiuzhe that this one has ever seen, he has unbridled potential and his future will
certainly be boundless. Sect Leader Pei can think of this as an investment. In the future, when I
need help, please, Sect Leader Pei, lend a hand.
Naturally, Pei Yuan Rans heart relaxed slightly. Even though he didnt believe all of it, but he
didnt let it show.
Lin Qian smiled and said, We will temporarily set our departure at noon three days from now.
This one will be waiting and wont disturbed Sect Leader Pei now. Farewell!
I wont see you off! Pei Yuan Ran said, raising his folded hands.

Zuo Mo and Bo Feng had made two good transactions, the aura between them very harmonious.
Chang Heng and Gui Feng were not interested in Golden Crow Fire, something Zuo Mo felt was
very regretful about. However before leaving, Zuo Mo asked them to spread the news of the
Golden Crow Fire, and Bo Feng agreed.
Zuo Mo saw Bo Feng and the others leave.
What are you going to do? Pu Yao suddenly asked.
Zuo Mo inhaled deeply, and then exhaled, as though he wanted to pushed out all the darkness
that had formed in his heart, Ill take it step by step.
Pu Yao smiled coldly, You didnt receive one bit of information. Tsk tsk, seems those old
codgers dont value you very much!
Zuo Mo was silent.
Plan on flying back? Pu Yao didnt have any sympathy.
Theres not enough time, Zuo Mo shook his head. From the Desolate Wood Reef to Wu Kong
Mountain, flying would take multiple months.
Dont worry, Pu Yao said unconcernedly, Even if the yaomo come, it would be small groups.
Probably just Night Stock Yao and Moon Demon, nothing important.
Night Stock Yao and Moon Demon? Are they very strong? Zuo Mo asked curiously. He didnt
know much about yaomo.
Little worms, Pu Yao twisted his mouth, about the same as ningmai.
Then why is everyone fleeing? Zuo Mo could not understand, If they are about the same as
ningmai, we can completely kill them!
Pu Yao smiled scornfully. Whether Night Stock Yao or Moon Demon, if they face your
ningmai, they can fight one against three! His bloody pupil suddenly rippled, Their growing
environment is much more cruel than you guys.
So what? Zuo Mo wasnt persuaded. Sky Moon Jie has jindan!

Pu Yao shrugged indifferently, This is just the beginning. I am willing to bet no, guarantee
that the old codgers of your sect are definitely planning on migrating away. Who is willing to
bleed themselves to help other people stop yaomo?
Wu Kong Mountain is the base of our sect
You are too nave! Pu Yaos words were full of scorn, Just a poor mountain. As long as they
have people, where cant they go? Without the mountain, they can go steal another one.
Zuo Mo couldnt speak.
Prepare early, Pu Yao shook his head, I wont have any time in the near future, dont bother
me.
He disappeared after finishing.
Zuo Mo stood at his spot he was unfocused for a moment. He could not think that the entire front
line of Bloody Sky Metropolis Jie had collapsed in such a short period of time. This was the
news that he traded with Bo Feng. Supposedly, it was a group of yaomo that had appeared at the
flank and caused the collapse of the entire defensive line which fortified Bloody Sky Metropolis
Jie.
Sky Moon Jie was not immediately next to Bloody Sky Metropolis Jie, but it wasnt far from it,
so it was in a very dangerous situation. Many sects of Sky Moon Jie had already started to
prepare for migration.
This was the news from five days ago.
What had frozen Zuo Mos heart was that he had not received any news from his own sect. News
from five days ago, with Wu Kong Sword Sects present status, they couldnt be ignorant of it. If
he moved now, he couldnt meet up with the sect unless the sect migrated to Little Mountain Jie.
But if they were going through Little Mountain Jie, they would have notified him so he could
prepare to receive them.
But he hadnt received anything.
He knew that he was set on a different path from the sect after this incident.
He wasnt sad. In reality, when he had came out of the sword essence formation, he had sensed it
coming, but he hadnt thought the day would come so quickly. The present Wu Kong Sword Sect
had long not been the Wu Kong Sword Sect of the past.

Never mind, he should think of way to protect himself. It was better to rely on himself than on
others.
Zuo Mos idea was quite different than anyone else. He decided to keep guarding Desolate Wood
Reef. Desolate Wood Reefs environment was special. Adding on the Skyring Moon Chime
Formation, and the golden armor guards, he could basically guarantee his own safety. If it was
needed, he could enter Little Mountain Jie through the jie river at any time.
But before that, he needed to increase his own strength. Otherwise, with his zhuji cultivation and
despite his large wealth of jingshi, not a piece of him would remain. If he left, he would take the
shidi with him.
He had found all the materials for the five essence sword set. Also, his cultivation, which hadnt
moved for such a long time, finally had started to grow.
At this time, it was better to control his personality and increase his own strength before anything
else.
The re-forging of Water Drop sword was very quick, only taking one day. He added a piece of
fourth-grade Crimson Fire Rock. Even though that did not elevate it to fourth-grade, it rose to the
top of third-grade. The outer layer of the Water Drop sword had an additional aura of bright red
flame that constantly burned.
Zuo Mo renamed it [Water Fire Sword].
The Teeth Vine was soaked in a ling spring. There were no ling springs on the Desolate Wood
Reef. This ling spring was one that Zuo Mo made himself using formations. The effect was not
as good as natural ling springs. Zuo Mo could only increase the time it spent in the water.
The ten days it should have taken to forge, were extended to thirty days by Zuo Mo.
The Blue Icicle Crystal, the Breath Rock, and the Fox Teeth were all fourth-grade materials. It
was almost impossible for Zuo Mo at present to forge them. He could only process them into
sword billets. When his cultivation reached ningmai and he had absorbed Golden Crow Fire,
could he finish the forging.
All of his other time was spent on meditation.
In this period of time, even Pu Yao who usually disdained Zuo Mos cultivation, intelligently
chose to remain silent. Also, Pu Yao was very busy in this time.

Zuo Mo received a flying sword message from his Master. On there, it said that Bloody Sky
Metropolis Jie had collapsed, and the sect decided to move to Bright Wave Jie. She told Zuo Mo
to be careful and protect himself. It also told him he could enter other sects. If there was a
chance, he could also go to Bright Wave Jie to find them.
Zuo Mo put the flying sword message into his ring, and turned back to his meditation.
On the Desolate Wood Reef, the black lake had been completely transformed.
The inky black pond water now glowed darkly. On the shore, a simple and old-fashioned stone
altar had taken form. Thirty something little yao guards continuously took water from the black
water pond and poured it onto the stone tiles of the altar.
The stone tiles were like sponges. No matter how much black water was poured onto the surface,
they didnt leave one drop behind.
Pu Yao looked at the altar, not saying a word.
The number of xiuzhe that passed through Desolate Wood Reef increased over the days. At the
beginning, there were little crowds. After a while, it turned to a continuous flow.
The power of the Skyring Moon Chime formation was much higher than before, so the
consumption of jingshi was also much higher. Each day, it needed twenty pieces of third-grade
jingshi to remain active. However, even though it was very expensive, but the strength exuded by
the Brahma sound ring, and the Skyring Moon Chime Formation, prevented the passing xiuzhe
from daring to have any greedy thoughts.
The rumors were that the Black Wind Bandits had attacked the Desolate Wood Reef, but ended
up all being annihilated. There were also rumors that Zuo Mo was selling Golden Crow Fire. As
long as they could pay the price or had good things to trade, they could buy it at any time.
Each xiuzhe that came onto the island would ask around about these two pieces of news when
they landed.
As the flow of people increased, Zuo Mos daily income also shot up. However, he didnt have
any time to put on it. Each day, he furiously meditated, hoping to quickly break through to
ningmai.
In comparison, Lil Pagoda was living very well these past days. The large amounts of talismans
and materials that Zuo Mo had gotten from the Black Wind Bandits were quite good. Since Zuo
Mo could not use them, and there was no place he could sell them, he decided to feed it all to Lil
Pagoda.

Lil Pagoda flowed with light. Compared to the fragility of the past, it seemed to be brimming
with life.
The tip of the tower that had been as sharp as a sword was now much more round. The slender
body seemed much broader. The past Five Colored Pagoda gave people the feeling of darkness
and sharpness. Now, it was more lively and nimble, the aura of killing was much smaller. What
Zuo Mo felt most strange about were the five little gourds appeared on the eaves of the first
level.
The five little gourds were all of different colors, belonging to the five elements. They were the
size of a grain of a rice. If Zuo Mo did not look closely, he wouldnt have found them.
Zuo Mo and Lil Pagoda communicated many times on the use of the five little gourds. Lil
Pagoda tried very hard to explain, but Zuo Mo didnt understand even after a long time. Full of
anticipation, Zuo Mo couldnt do anything except throw the question to one side.
To Zuo Mos joy, Lil Pagoda spat out a piece of grey mud again. It was slightly larger than last
time, about the size of his thumb. Zuo Mo put the little bit of grey mud into his ring.
The other shidi also knew now that the sect had already left Sky Moon Jie. Everyones mood
became terrible. Some people joined other sects. Zuo Mo didnt stop them. In situations like this,
they were certainly free to enter other sects.
Power and responsibility were tied together. The sect surrendered their responsibilities to them.
Accordingly, they also surrendered the power to constrain them.
All of Zuo Mos efforts were put on cultivation.
He could feel his cultivation progressing extremely quickly. On a certain day, he finally started
his charge at ningmai!
Translator Ramblings: Some of you were almost correct, and a few of you were on the dot.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Ninety


Seven Ningmai!
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.

Chapter One Hundred and Ninety Seven Ningmai!


The ling power inside Zuo Mos body was thick like a cloud as it filled his channels. If it was not
being channeled they would be abnormally quiet and flow extremely slow as though they had
stopped.
This was a characteristic unique to zhuji ling power. The ling power in Zuo Mos body was thick
like rain clouds, showing that his cultivation had reached the peak of zhuji.
The reason that his cultivation had grown so rapidly recently was all due to a strange repulsion at
the little holes in his dantian. Before, any ling power he absorbed would spill from the little
holes. Right now, the holes still existed but the ling power in his dantian would not spill and
leave.
Zuo Mo was very suspicious that this strange repelling force was caused by the draw of earth
energy away from his body as this began occurring after the earth energy had tempered his body.
However, the mysteries of channels were not something a little person like Zuo Mo could
understand. He quickly threw it to the back of his mind and started to cultivate.
The cloud-like ling power relentlessly circulated in his body. Zuo Mo had already maintained
this for four hours. His ling power was active while his mind and body were all at their best
condition.
He started to charge into ningmai!
All the ling power in his body were roused, they started to flow through the channels at a speed
Zuo Mo was familiar with.
Ningmai, or concentrating channels, required condensing the mist-like ling power into liquid
form ling power. The simplest way was to continuously absorb ling power thus increasing the
density of ling power causing it to condense from gas into liquid.
However, the process was not so simple when this condensation occurred in real life. After ones
cultivation reached the peak of zhuji, they would encounter resistance when they absorbed ling
power. If they could not absorb ling power they could not increase the density of ling power.
Many people found themselves stuck at this gate into ningmai.
There were many ways to break through to the stage of ningmai, such as lingdan. The markets
would sell Ningmai Dan. The success rate was high but not everyone liked to use them. Different
than zhuji, those in ningmai stage started to comprehend the laws of the world. The breakthrough
to ningmai was a wonderful opportunity to comprehend all kinds of laws. Xiuzhe who had

confidence and high aspirations for themselves usually would not chose the Ningmai Dan but to
comprehend by themselves.
Zuo Mo chose to comprehend it himself.
With his present wealth it was very easy to buy a Ningmai Dan, but he was understood that the
easier the beginning was the easier it was to trip at later stages. If he walked more steadily at the
beginning, even if he suffered more, the beneficial it would be for him later.
He had grown in this half year, and with the recent battle he had grown rapidly.
This kind of growth was not just in cultivation and formations, it was also the growth of his
mind. Continuously encountering certain things caused him to understand many things. Even
though it was hard to change his habit of taking shortcuts when possible, but regarding
cultivation, he was abnormally steadfast.
Carefully channeling the ling power in his body his spiritual leaf hand opened like a flower. Any
change in his ling power would be instantly detected by the leaf hand.
Using spiritual power had become Zuo Mos instinct. After he started [Embryonic Breathing
Spiritual Cultivation] he became used to using his consciousness in any situation.
This habit had given him many benefits. He became even more determined to persist in this
habit.
The mist-like ling power continuously magnified in front of his eyes. He could even see tinier
wisps of ling power swimming within. They were like a group of tadpoles. They appeared to be
one but the interior was made up of countless little entities.
There was a weak attraction between wisps of ling power, but as the ling power in the channels
continued to increase there was a kind of repulsion that occurred between the ling power. The
amount of ling power in the channels had reached a limit!
For some reason, Zuo Mo suddenly thought of Wu Kong Mountains, thought of the time that he
had been farming in ling fields at Wu Kong Mountain.
A faint sorrow slowly flowed at the bottom of his heart. The ling power inside his body seemed
to feel his emotions and instantly slowed down.
It took only a short while for Zuo Mo to fight his way out of the sadness. The world could not be
predicted. He had started to learn how to deal with these emotions. He didnt hold any hatred
towards Wu Kong Sword Sect. The sect leaders choice was not wrong at the core. With the
exception of a few conservative and extremely old sects the great majority of sects were
extremely mobile.

He just had never thought this would happen to him.


Focusing Zuo Mo controlled his thoughts and brought his attention back on his ling power.
He knew why he would suddenly recall farming ling fields on Wu Kong Mountain. The mist
made him think of [Little Art of Cloud and Rain].
He was so familiar with the [Little Art of Cloud and Rain] he couldnt be any more familiar. It
was the spell out of the five basic spells that he had the deepest comprehension of. For a long
time, he had relied on it to not starve.
Wasnt the the process of ningmai just transforming water element power to rain?
The [Little Art of Cloud and Rain] required first to use the spell to gather water element power.
When the power reached a certain level, it would form water drops and fall as rain, nurturing the
ling fields.
The two were so similar!
How did ling rain form? Zuo Mo was too familiar. In the past, in order to study the [Little Art of
Cloud and Rain], he almost took apart everything in the the [Little Art of Cloud and Rain].
Water element power was invisible and intangible. It could not directly turn to water drops.
There were two requirements: one was having enough water element power, the other was
collisions. The water element power had to collide among themselves. Only through mutual
collisions to overcome the repulsion between the water element power could water drops form.
The water drop would increase in size and condense in the air.
One way worked so it worked for ten thousand problems.
Zuo Mos thoughts became abnormally clear and he was very confident that his direction was not
wrong.
Since the ling power in his body had reached a limit and no matter how he tried, he could not
absorb any more ling power, then what he needed to do now was to cause the ling power to
collide.
To cause the collisions in [Little Art of Cloud and Rain], Zuo Mo used turbulence in the air. The
changes in air flow would cause the water element power to continuously collide.
Naturally, this method would not work on ling power. Other than ling power, the channels did
not contain anything else.
His direction was not wrong. What he had to find now was a realistic method.

After thinking for a while, he thought of a way. Smashing ling power!


If he split his ling power into two parts and then made them smash into each other at high speeds,
would that accomplish the effects of a collision?
His mind became alert. It would be difficult for others to use their mind for two things at once,
but he possessed the leaf hand, it wasnt a problem.
He didnt rashly start but continued to sit and ponder.
He thought through every possible problem that he could think off. Some questions that he didnt
know the answers to, he would only know when he tried it.
Zuo Mo decided to start experimenting.
He split the ling power inside his body to two parts
The spiritual leaf hand started to shake, two portions of ling power started to move along their
own paths. One half of ling power flowed through the channels on his left side, revolving
clockwise. The other half of his ling power flowed through the channels on his right and
revolved counter-clockwise.
Zuo Mos mind was clear, untainted by mortal matters, no sorrow or joy.
On his body, there was none of the frugality and worldliness that he usually had, but a faint and
clean aura.
His ling power circulated while gradually speeding up.
The reason that low level xiuzhe attacks were so weak, besides their cultivation, was that they
were limited by the speed the ling power circulated through their body. When high level xiuzhe
thought, their ling power would be like a tsunami, and a killing move would form. For low level
xiuzhe, even if they managed to respond in time, and channeled the ling power in their body, the
time that was needed was much longer than high level xiuzhe.
But as Zuo Mo continued to speed up the circulation, the speed of the two groups of ling power
had reached the limits of his endurance. His channels started to hurt.
The intensity was pretty much enough!
Zuo Mo gritted his teeth. The two high speed flows of ling power moved simultaneously from up
and down towards his dantian!

The dantian was the place chose for the collision. Compared to the narrow channels, the dantian
was much broader and the amount of ling power it could tolerate was much higher.
This held a certain degree of danger. The dantian was the nexus of all the channels in the body. If
he made a mistake then it would be a calamity.
Cultivation was to go against the natural order and it was full of dangers. This was just ningmai.
If his cultivation deepened, he would encounter more dangers such as heart demons and
heavenly tribulations, and risk the destruction of his soul at any time.
Knowing that there was danger, Zuo Mos mind was abnormally clear without any fear.
Two high speed ling power flows charged into the dantian and collided without any finesse!
Zuo Mos body shook, his head ringing. It was as though he had been struck by a large hammer.
He felt his body boil. There was an instant where his soul was outside his body, his mind
completely blank, not knowing what was happening.
But when Zuo Mo woke up, he felt his body was unspeakably comfortable, soft and relaxed, so
comfortable that he wanted to groan!
Zuo Mo did not sink into this comfort. He carefully inspected the changes in the ling power at
his dantian.
A strange scene was occurring in front of him.
The two flows of mist that had ran head first at each other merged into a ball of ling power, and
this ling power ball was slowly drizzling rain.
The feeling of comfort was from the ling power raining down at the dantian.
As the ling power continued to collide, the ling power rain constantly rained down on the
dantian. In a little while, the dantian turned to a little pond.
Zuo Mo was overjoyed!
These water-like ling power meant that Zuo Mo had successfully entered ningmai!
He suppressed the happiness inside and carefully channeled the two streams of ling power. When
all the ling power had collided, that was completion!
The ling power fell like rain.

Zuo Mo patiently waited for the last thread of ling power to turn collide into drops and land in
the ling power pond below.
Feeling his dantian was hollow, Zuo Mo took out a piece of jingshi and furiously absorbed.
When the ling power was absorbed inside his body, he repeated the process and turned the ling
power into liquid. Zuo Mo absorbed three pieces of third-grade jingshi before his dantian felt
slightly filled.
He stopped.
Opening his eyes, he could not disguise the joy he felt. The ling power in his body was three
times what he had in zhuji. This now was just after he had broken through.
He finally understood why ningmai was so much stronger than zhuji.
At some unknown time, his body had become wet, a sticky black layer pasted onto his body and
emitting a nasty odour.
Zuo Mo hurriedly cast the [Little Art of Cloud and Rain] and washed his body clean. The black
substance were impurities from his body.
After finishing, Zuo Mo felt his body was filled with ling power, unable to stop himself from
howling.
Lil Pagoda that was in charge of the [Sky Ring Moon Chime] Formation simultaneously started
the formation with a ring from the Buddha Sound Hoop.
All of Desolate Wood Reef could hear it.
Translator Ramblings: Zuo Mos first spell makes an appearance back again. This is his version
understanding ningmai. Other people probably have to comprehend different things.
Theres a lot that can be argued about the decisions Wu Kong Sword Sect made but the first
matter is to say that Fang Xiang really created characters that are controversial yet relatable, not
one-sided selfish antagonists. By the time I got to these chapters, it was almost entirely relief that
the struggle is over. I go through the process of anger and relief every time I reread.
These elders are not the all-knowing and wise elders that exist in some stories, they are imperfect
individuals that make decisions based on the limited information they have. Each person has
priorities and just became one of those priorities is lower on the list does not mean that it didnt
mean anything. There is a whole series of decisions that created the choice at the end, and no one
is faultless. You might say that Zuo Mo was doomed to leave once he encountered Pu Yao. At the

same time, Zuo Mo may have influenced decisions that were made but he is almost always in the
reactive position.
This is obviously been a case of the needs of the many outweighing the few as the elders
prioritize the sect. From Pei Yuan Rans perspective, this is the best result. He cannot sacrifice
the safety of the sect which had just started to prosper, and was the lifelong goal of him and the
other elders, for one ningmai disciple that most likely cannot pass on the sword teachings of the
sect. While Shi Feng Rong may have made it to Desolate Wood Reef in three days, she most
likely could not have flew back with Zuo Mo in three days, and that would be past the deadline
for the move. Zuo Mo may be Shi Feng Rongs student, but she has other students like Xiao
Guo. But I do not mean that this was the best decision to take for both Zuo Mo and the sect. As
the story proceeds, the world will expand and many things will be explained.

World of Cultivation Chapter One Hundred and Ninety


Eight What Is The Situation?
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter One Hundred and Ninety Eight What Is The Situation?
After venting his joy, Zuo Mo gradually calmed down. He quickly made a new discovery. His
vision had little tiny threads.
What was this?
Zuo Mos heart moved and he started using his scripture.
As expected, these strands flowed towards him.
Ling energy!
So that was how ling energy looked in the air! Zuo Mo suddenly realized. Quickly, another
question popped up in his head. Then where did the ling energy in the air come from? Ling
veins? Then where did ling veins come from
Zuo Mo laughed. Not even jindan experts could explain these topics. He was just a ningmai,
what was the use in thinking so much?
He brought his attention back to his body. Now that he broke through to ningmai there were
many places that needed a reassessment.
If someone asked Zuo Mo what the dominant feeling of ningmai was, then it was the feeling of
enough ling power!

The ling power in his body was three times what it had been previously. The feeling of having
enough ling power was extremely pleasurable, as though his body was filled with power. The
lack of ling power had been his biggest limit before. Now that he had broken through the limit it
was an exhilarating feeling. The spells that he could not complete before he could easily cast
them now.
This was just the first stratum of ningmai.
He made a rough guess of the ling power inside his body. It was about three jing. When one
reached ningmai, the ling power inside the body was measured with a new unit jing. The ling
power of one jing was the ling power contained in a standard third-grade jingshi.
The peak of the first stratum of ningmai was about ten jing.
After that, he would reach a period of steady growth.
The ling power in ningmai was far purer than in zhuji. There was a change of properties in regard
to power and control.
Zuo Mo flipped his hands, threads of fire began dancing. In an instant a Four Turn fire formation
had taken form. There was none of the previous difficulty. The feeling of ease made it enjoyable
for Zuo Mo.
Previously, when he then tried using Li Water Burning Heavens, this move would have taken half
of his ling power, but now it was easily accomplished. The flame like water carried a killing
intent with it. Zuo Mo, having killed now, had a slight aura of killing that he did not have before.
The plentiful ling power flooded through the sword, the water-shaped flame was abnormally
detailed.
Ling power was the foundation of a xiuzhe. Without ling power even if one had the best
talismans, they could not be used. An example were fourth-grade talismans; to use killing moves
with flying swords under fourth-grade, it would usually take one jing of ling power. Zuo Mo was
able to use it three times now. In zhuji, he could only just manage it once.
Li Water Burning Heavens was a killing move. Zuo Mo had to almost use half of his ling power
to use it one. Now that his ling power was more pure the expenditure was also less. He could
easily cast it ten times.
To use an intermediate fourth-grade flying sword to cast a killing move, it would use
approximately two jing of ling power.
Good talismans were powerful, but the ling power they consumed were also very terrifying. Not
everyone could use them. Only the best talismans were powerful and used little ling power, like
the soul-tethered talismans. But those talismans were a matter of luck.

The exhilarated Zuo Mo furiously worked himself.

Chun Yu Cheng carefully inspected the butterfly chrysalises in the beast pool. Three butterfly
chrysalis silently hung on the wall of the best pool. The patterns on each of the butterfly chrysalis
were different. One was multi-colored, another was faint blue, and the last one was grey and
nondescript. Of the six infant worms, only three had become chrysalises. This success rate was
not very high, but Chun Yu Cheng was not demotivated instead he was full of anticipation.
The transformation process of the three infant larva had been completely different than any he
had seen before. From the patterns on the chrysalises, the three ling butterflies would be different
types.
This point made him sigh. In his previous experience, he had never encountered this kind of
situation. The treatment of the three infant larva had not been different. Theoretically, the mature
ling butterflies should have been the same type, and only differed in quality.
The more he studied the beast pool, the more wondrous he found the beast pool.
He still held a grudge about the incident with the Black Wind Bandits. That feeling of
helplessness, of only being able to watch, he would never forget in his life. Having been
stimulated, he put two hundred percent of his effort into these ling butterflies.
Being abandoned by the sect was not a huge blow to him. He had only been in Wu Kong Sword
Sect for a short period of time, and didnt have a strong sense of belonging to the sect. He knew
that many of the shixiong were leaving, but he did not go with them.
After these days, his confidence in Zuo Mo far surpassed his confidence in sects.
Compared to the tragic outlook of other people, he felt this situation was pretty good. At least,
Zuo Shixiong would not be restained by the sect, his future prospects may even be better.
Gongsun Cha Shidi also did not leave. The three most powerful people in this group were still
together.
Those people that left would definitely regret it, he thought.
Quickly, he threw those thoughts far away, his eyes staring at the beast pool.
Sounds of footsteps came over. He didnt turn around. A head appeared over his shoulder.

How is it? Gongsun Cha asked in a low voice.


The two of them chose to stay and their relationship had become close. Gongsun Cha was a
butcher, but they hadnt hunted any ling beasts recently, so he was very idle. Zuo Mo was in
seclusion everyday so he only had Chun Yu Chengs company.
The duty of taking the tolls landed on Gongsun Chas body. This guy looked gentle and refined
but his face was thick, his heart dark, and extremely brave. Facing ningmai experts, he wasnt
timid at all, tearing pieces off. The docile Chun Yu cheng could only gape as he watched.
Soon, Chun Yu Cheng didnt dare to move his eyes away, nervousness was apparent in his
voice.
Gongsun Cha wasnt so nervous. He looked in interest at the three chrysalises in the beast pool.
Boop, a light sound. The multi-colored chrysalis was the first to move. It first swayed and then
something broke through and made a little hole. Chun Yu Chengs gaze became even more
nervous.
A dash of multiple colors flashed through the little hole, and a nimble multi-colored butterfly
appeared in the beast pool.
Joy came onto Chun Yu Chengs face.
Boop boop. Another two sounds. Soon, another two ling butterflies appeared in the beast pool,
one grey, one blue.
Thee ling butterflies danced in the beast pool nimbly, but no matter how they flew, they could not
fly out of the beast pool.
Chun Yu Chengs expression was excited. At the side, Gongsun Cha laughed, and hurriedly
reminded, Take a look!
Hearing this, Chun Yu Cheng came back to his senses and his hands cast a spell. A dash of light
flew out of his hands and accurately covered the multi-colored ling butterfly.
His eyes suddenly widened as though he had seen something he could not believe.
Gongsun Cha hurriedly asked, How is it?
Chun Yu Chengs lips trembled. He didnt speak, his hands casting another spell covering
another ling butterfly. His eyes that had been wide suddenly bulged, his lips trembling again!
What is it, tell me! Gongsun Chas curiosity had been stirred and he pressed for an answer.

Chun Yu Cheng still didnt speak, his lips trembling without stopping like waves. His hands were
not very smooth as they cast a spell, stuttering so much that he failed a few times before he
succeeded.
Another dash of light flew out and covered the last ling butterfly.
It was like he was struck with a body paralysis curse, suddenly freezing and looking in a daze at
the ling butterfly covered in the light.
Is there a problem? Gongsun Cha felt his heart was speeding up. He swore inside, damn it, this
docile and reliable really guy knows how to whet someones appetite!
At this time, he suddenly heard Chun Yu Cheng shriek. He jumped in fright and turned over to
face.
Chun Yu Cheng, face bright red, fell backwards like a piece of wood.
This, this what was this situation
Gongsun Cha gaped at he stood in his spot, not understanding what the situation was.

Zuo Mo contentedly came out of the lava cave. Having broken through into ningmai, the
insecurity in his heart had lessened greatly. To say of nothing else, just stepping into ningmai,
with the aid of the big formation of the Desolate Wood Reef, he wasnt afraid of ningmai third
stratum experts.
If he used some more thought, and forge the five essence sword set, his power would increase a
few more fractions.
His howl had alarmed all of the Desolate Wood Reef. The xiuzhe that had been staying on the
island instantly understood that Zuo Mo had broken through to ningmai. The xiuzhe that had
previously been restless instantly became quiet. No matter how strong the formation was, before
people saw it, many did not believe it.
Zuo Mo did not lack for fame, but what was also famous was his zhuji cultivation. In the eyes of
the great majority, this point was enough to erase his advantages in other areas.
This was Sky Moon Jie, dominated by sword xiu Sky Moon Jie.

But now, Zuo Mo had managed to fill in the last shortcoming. In the hearts of others, Zuo Mos
danger had risen linearly. A ningmai xiuzhe who could fight ningmai when he was in zhuji, his
danger did not have to be stated now that he was in ningmai.
All of that didnt have much to do with Zuo Mo. He was hungering after his five essence sword
set, but before that, he had to first absorb Golden Crow Fire.
After the Stalagmite fire turned to Inky Black Lava White Fire, it was a third-grade fire seed.
However, for the present Zuo Mo, it wasnt quite enough. After a third-grade fire was used with
the Four-Turn fire formation, it could barely process fourth-grade materials. It could barely forge
fourth-grade materials like Fox Teeth and Blue Icicle Crystal into sword billets. But if he wanted
to forge a flying sword, it was not enough.
For other people, finding a fourth-grade fire seed was as difficult as ascending to the Heavens,
but for Zuo Mo, he completely did not have worry about this area.
The amount of Golden Crow Fire on his hands could be counted in double digits.
Golden Crow Fire was a rare fine quality specimen in fourth-grade fire seeds, and was one of the
most sought after fire seeds.
But the problem that Zuo Mo faced was a difficult one. Was he to use the pure Golden Crow Fire
to replace Inky Black Lava White Fire, or use the Golden Crow Fire as the primary body and
merge it with Inky Black Lava White Fire?
Both actions had their advantages and disadvantages.
Pure Golden Crow Fire was undoubtedly strong in its power but its domineering and yang
qualities made it so that it could be used to process a smaller range of items. If Inky Black Lava
White Fire was added, the power would not be as good as pure Golden Crow Fire, but because it
had many qualities it could be used to process a larger range of items. For example, it could
process cold and icy items like the Blue Icicle Crystal, but pure Golden Crow Fire could not do
that.
It really was a painful problem. Zuo Mo had a headache.
Just at this time, he saw Gongsun Cha pant as he ran over in a panic. Seeing him, the other
shouted, Shixiong, not good! Chun Shidi has fainted!
Translator Ramblings: Yes, his ningmai breakthrough was simple but does it have to be
complicated? Most people do not have very noisy and eye-catching breakthroughs. Think about
the waste of energy for all that light and noise.

Only Gongsun Cha and Chun Yu Cheng remain of the disciples that came with Zuo Mo from Wu
Kong Sword Sect. Remember, Zuo Mo deliberately picked disciples that hadnt entered the sect
for long and were production xiu. So leaving is the rational decision for these disciples.
We are introduced to the levels of ningmai and the concept of jing. Its weird how stages in
cultivation are divided sometimes, which provides interesting ways that authors play with special
talents, equipment, and the attacks. Zuo Mo was able to fight people above his ling power level,
because his consciousness and physical strength was stronger which increased his overall
cultivation. You could say he has hidden attributes. Putting numbers on each level is sometimes
risky because then people wonder how a person gathers energy so much more quickly. For an
in-universe explanation, you could say that each level is to reach a certain understanding of
energies, and the amount of ling power in a body is just a construct used to measure others for
their value and so they dont end up provoking someone more than two times as powerful as
they are even though they are on the same stage.

Nine Beast Service Card

Chapter One Hundred and Ninety Nine Beast Service Card
When Zuo Mo hurried to the beast pool, but when he saw the glowing Chun Yu Cheng, his
stopped in his tracks.
Didnt you say he fainted? Zuo Mo turned around and saw Gongsun Chas stunned face.
He clearly
Chun Yu Cheng became even more exuberant when he saw Zuo Mo and came charging over,
Shixiong Shixiong! Success! Were successful!
Zuo Mo didnt know what was going on. Success? What success?
Ling butterflies! Chun Yu Cheng spread his hands. There were three jade cards in his hands
Beast Service Cards!
Zuo Mos eyes lit up, and unconsciously raised his voice. Really? Let me see!

Beast Service Card, a piece of four cun long and one and a half cun jade board. There were lucky
clouds at the four corners. At the very center, a butterfly was motionless. Holding it in his hand,
Zuo Mo flipped it over several times.
So this is a beast service card! Gongsun Cha threw his previous inquiry to the back of his mind
and crowded over.
Zuo Mo did not scorn Gongsun Chas excitement. It was the first time he had seen a beast
service card as well. The earth-plowing earthworm and other ling beasts that he used before were
too low in grade, and didnt have the qualifications to use beast service cards. Only high grade
ling beasts would need beast service cards.
To store a ling beast into the card was to process and then make it submit to the owner, so the
beast would follow the owners orders. The beast service card was also the residence of the ling
beast.
Whats the grade of the three ling butterflies? Zuo Mo still flipped and caressed the card.
The patterns on the three beast service cards were similar but all had their own characteristics.
One of the cards had multicolored patterns, one was entirely blue, the last grey-white.
Chun Yu Cheng was full of pride. The multicolored is the peak of third-grade, the rest are high
third-grade.
Facing the expectant eyes of the other two, he took the three beast service cards and introduced,
The ling butterfly that is multicolored has three spells, Rainbow Pupils, Illusion Poison, and
Poison Change. Ive never heard of the three spells before so I do not know what the effects are.
Shixiong will need to investigate it yourself. Third-grade ling beasts that can use three spells
naturally are the best of third-grade. But these three spells are really weird. The Dong Fu
Poisonous Moth is only second-grade, why would this ling butterfly be primarily poisonous

As he spoke, Chun Yu Cheng slowly wandered off the beaten path of conversation yet again.
Zuo Mo and Gongsun Cha helplessly exchanged a look. It wasnt the first time they had
encountered this kind of situation. Chun Yu Cheng was a maniac about raising animals, so at any
time, he could digress on a topic.
Zuo Mo lightly coughed.
Chun Yu Cheng seemed to wake from his dream, bashfully scratching his forehead, Oh, lets
continue. This blue butterfly has two spells, but both are water element spells. It looks like it
isnt any different from Rain Mark Butterfly, but it definitely isnt a Rain Mark Butterfly. So
strange

Seeing he was going to wander off again, Gongsun Cha hurriedly reminded, The last one?
Oh, Chun Yu Cheng was pulled back, This grey butterfly is also very unique. It only has one
spell, Ling Eye. This grey butterfly is most suitable for Gongsun Shidi. Ling Eyes can detect the
density of ling energy. If it is used to dismember beasts, it is a great aid!
Gongsun Cha did not hesitate in taking the grey butterflys beast service card from his hands,
This one is mine.
Zuo Mo naturally chose the multi-colored beast service card. For things that he did not
understand, he always followed the most basic rationale choose the most expensive one.
Chun Yu Cheng did not have much interest in the remaining beast service card. We should sell
this one. High third-grade, it can sell for a pretty good price.
Zuo Mo thought, and then shook his head. Shidi, take it. The situation is not good now, if you
have it, Shidi can have a measure of self-protection.
Exactly! Gongsun Cha agreed.
Okay, Chun Yu Cheng nodded, But my cultivation is low. If I want to process this beast
service card, it would take a lot of time.
Its worth it no matter how long you spend, Zuo Mo said.
Then the beast pool, were not using it anymore? Chun Yu Cheng understood what Zuo Mo
meant.
No, Zuo Mo shook his head. Lets destroy it so it wont land on other peoples hands.
Chun Yu Cheng and Gongsun Cha became silent, the mood instantly becoming heavy.
Seeing the two seem very dejected, especially Chun Yu Cheng, Zuo Mo comforted, Its fine.
When we find a new place to rest, we can build a new one.
Chun Yu Cheng finally looked more expectant.
Gongsun Cha suddenly said, I just heard a shout before. Did Shixiong break into ningmai?
That was me, Zuo Mo nodded.
The two instantly became lighter, the depression on their hearts sweeping away.

Chun Yu Cheng smiled and said, Thats great! Shixiong is in ningmai, now I can sleep
peacefully at night! He was full of confidence in Zuo Mo.
Gongsun Cha did not speak, but there was a light in his eyes, the smile on his face unspeakably
devious, Our income isnt bad recently. At least fifty or sixty people everyday, at max one
hundred people. Each person is charged one hundred pieces of third-grade jingshi. Overall, the
daily income is ten to twenty pieces of fourth-grade jingshi.
Ten to twenty pieces of fourth-grade jingshi Zuo Mo sucked in a breath. All of his
discomfort and dejection were instantly swept away. This terrifying number made his little heart
beat rapidly.
A short time ago, one piece of fourth-grade jingshi was an enormous sum for him.
As expected, it was easy to get rich in troubled times!
Even bandit leaders like Zhang Hao only carried about ten or so pieces of fourth-grade jingshi on
his body. That was Zuo Mos daily income now!
An enormous feeling of good fortune surrounded Zuo Mo. He felt he had never been so rich
before!
Jingshi increase a persons courage. Zuo Mos confidence shot up. So what if there was yaomo?
These days, there were no monsters that could not be smashed to death with jingshi!
Hee hee, according to my estimates, this is just the beginning. After a while, the migration will
reach a peak. A conservative estimate would be five hundred xiuzhe passing through each day.
Gongsun Chas refined and delicate face smiled softly and darkly, making Chun Yun Chengs
body feel cold.
Five hundred Zuo Mo felt so many jingshi were flying in front of his eyes, his heart was
flying.
One person was one hundred pieces of third-grade jingshi, five hundred people, that was one
hundred pieces of fourth-grade jingshi
No matter what the price of commodities had grown to now, one hundred pieces of fourth-grade
jingshi was definitely a number with great purchasing power.
However, this jingshi isnt that easy to make, Gongsun Cha slowly said.
Zuo Mos heated head instantly cleared, What? People dare to plot against us? When he said
this, his voice was full of killing intent.

Groups with many members may not be willing to pay, Gongsun Cha said shortly.
Zuo Mo recovered from the blow of jingshi. That was right. If a group had many people, they
would definitely not be willing to pay the toll. One hundred pieces of third-grade jingshi was fine
for ningmai, but it was not an insignificant sum for zhuji xiuzhe.
A single person would be afraid of the formation on the island and the golden armor guards, but
if there were many people, the situation would not be easy to control.
For jingshi, Zuo Mo had more enthusiasm than anyone, his brains calculating faster than anyone
else.
Thats easy. We can hire some ningmai sword xiu. One hundred pieces of third-grade jingshi a
day. This price, we can hire many ningmai sword xiu. Zuo Mo smirked, Im in ningmai now. I
can expand the formation.
Who wont give the jingshi, ge will destroy their souls! Zuo Mo said hatefully.
Gongsun Chas eyes were bright while Chun Yu Chengs face was full of shock.

Hong Yang saw the little island coming up and released a breath inside. It wasnt just him, the ten
guards behind him also released a breath. Long flights were exhausting. There was a little island
up head. They could finally rest for a while.
That should be the Desolate Wood Reef. We can use the area to rest and recover. After two days,
we will pass the jie river, he ordered.
The ten guards protected him as they flew towards the Desolate Wood Reef.
Hong Yang was the storekeeper of a large merchant business who had been sent to Sky Moon
Jie. He had recently received an order from the merchant house for him to take all of the stores
jingshi and important talismans to leave Sky Moon Jie and enter Little Mountain Jie.
When he received this order, he had almost assumed that someone was pretending to send a false
order. Only when he personally went to confirm it did he know what was happening. So he took
the ten strongest guards of the shop, and made a low-key escape to Little Mountain Jie.
As the procession flew near Desolate Wood Reef, they unconsciously slowed their speed.

In the sky above the Desolate Wood Reef, a golden sun hung high, countless golden threads
falling down. Many rings of light were strung on the golden strings, occasionally chiming.
Before nearing, Hong Yang felt the domineering and pressuring presence from the formation.
Such a powerful formation!
He was shocked. He wasnt a country bumpkin. To be able to manage the merchant business of
one jie, his eyes were undoubtedly skilled.
Ah! One of the guards gasped in shock.
What is it? He couldnt help ask.
This formation seems a bit like the formation that the Sword Test Conferences Zuo Mo used,
The guard pondered for a long time before saying, But above Zuo Mos formation was a moon,
this formation has a sun.
Zuo Mo Hong Yang chewed on this name. One of the most accomplished disciples of
Wu Kong Sword Sect, he naturally knew about him. But his information channels were wide. He
also knew that Wu Kong Sword Sect had already moved to Bright Wave Jie. A core disciple like
Zuo Mo definitely wouldnt remain in Sky Moon Jie.
However, it was better to be careful. He was carrying large amounts of jingshi and talismans on
his body and naturally had to be careful. Even more, the presence of the formation could not lie.
No matter who was it that set up the formation, a person able to set up such a large formation
wasnt a simple person.
This ones group would like to borrow space to rest for a few days, he shouted.
Welcome, thank you for your patronage, each person one hundred pieces of third-grade
jingshi, A soft voice passed out of the formation.
One person one hundred piece of third-grade jingshi
This was extortion! This definitely was extortion!
The ten guards instantly became angry. One hundred pieces of third-grade jingshi was enough to
buy a pretty good third-grade talisman! The leader of the guards even had his flying sword in his
hand.
Hong Yang still kept his calm. This price was very high, but it wasnt as though he could not
accept it. The other was not afraid to call a high price, they definitely had something they relied
on.

Alright! Hong Yang did not hesitate in nodding.


The other did not seem to be afraid that he would go back on his word. The big formation
moved, and revealed a passage.
Ill go first, The leader of the guards did not forget his duty, and walked at the very front. He
had the highest cultivation of all the guards. Of the ten guards, three were ningmai, the other
seven were the peak of zhuji.
All of them acted as though they were facing a great enemy, their expressions nervous as they
carefully proceeded into the passage.

Translation Ramblings: Zuo Mo is really profiteering from the threat of the yaomo. Wu Kong
Sword Sect cannot imagine just how much money they have missed out on.
I always wonder how people get the time to learn about all these items and materials when they
spend all of their time cultivating and in seclusion. Its like there is an encyclopedia all these
people get that we readers never get to see.
There was this post on reddit about parents in Chinese novels and I have to comment because it
is something that is very interesting. Chinese xuanhuan and all kinds of fantasy generally have
either absent/dead parents or good parents that support their son unconditionally. The core/inner
family remains intact in memory or are all alive. The mother or father may be missing but the
son will go on a trip and the parents will reunite. The dead/absent parents usually have been
killed for enemies or are hiding to keep their enemies away from their child. Sibling conflict is
rare withe the main character helping out his siblings who seem to do nothing but take what their
elder/younger sibling give them without any thoughts/feelings of their own.There is very rarely
any divorce, unfaithfulness, or rape occurring between parents of the main character.
On the other hand, if you read more female-protagonist Chinese stories, there is a huge variety.
Parents, usually the father, might be cheating on the wife, abusive, full of hate. The female
protagonist can either be the love child or the one from the marriage. Absent parents due to lack
of responsibility is common, and in historical novels, there is child-selling, abandoning the child
due to their sex, using the child as a pawn to gain power or influence etc etc. With compoundconflicts, you also get parents switching children at birth, abusive/selfish grandparents, and
sibling conflicts being its own messy matter with struggles between the children of the legitimate
wife and the concubines and even between sisters and brothers. There is a wider range of
personalities, and perfect families are relatively less common.
All the disciples Zuo Mo took along to Desolate Wood Reef were relatively new ones. I guess
there is some confusion with my discussion on the last chapter. Essentially, Zuo Mo, Gongsun
Cha and Chun Yu Cheng are this little groups that is staying on the reef. The other disciples have

left with other sects that passed through, or are planning on leaving. Zuo Mo is switching from
being a sect disciple to an independent (roaming xiu) and the other two are following him.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred Peddling


This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, Brian, warlord212, and
cactuar0.
Chapter Two Hundred Peddling
As he entered the passage the shock in Hong Yangs heart increased.
This jie river was the only passageway leading to Little Mountain Jie. He had crossed it so many
times before that he had lost count. He remembered clearly this was the territory of Heart Lake
Sword Sect and was guarded by a few disciples. He had had several interactions with these Heart
Lake Sword Sect disciples. Every time he passed through he would give a few gifts to maintain a
close the relationship.
He remembered those Heart Lake disciples had no interest in developing the Desolate Wood
Reef so the Desolate Wood Reef was always very bare.
When did the Desolate Wood Reef become like this?
As he landed from the passage of the formation, what he saw along the way was high defenses,
heavy jinzhi so much that if they put one foot out of the border, they would instantly be killed by
the formation. The appearing and disappearing sounds landed in everyones eyes like an
intangible killing intent. The group walked as though there was a sword at their backs, their
bodies cold, hairs standing on end. Even the face of the guard leader went from bright to dimd
He clearly was very wary.
Such a big formation could not have been built in one day.
The shock in Hong Yangs heart increased, did Heart Lake Sword Sect do this? In reality, from
the perspective of a businessperson Hong Yang felt that constructing a restricted area here was a
very profitable business.
He decided to wait and see. One hundred pieces of third-grade jingshi per person was just a small
number to him, but from the perspective of others, it was a just a reckless toll; it did not seem
like something a big sect like Heart Lake Sword Sect would do.
What he was most afraid off was there would be no limit to the others demands. Luckily, he had
brought almost all the elite of the merchant house with him. Of the ten guards, three were
ningmai experts, the others were all peak of zhuji.

As expected, when the world was in disorder anything could occur, Hong Yang sighed.
Welcoming him was a delicate and handsome youth and three golden armor guards.
The youth had a friendly smile on his face. His cultivation was not high, just zhuji.
Hong Yangs gaze landed on the three guards behind him, and he was stunned. Not just him,
even the leader of the guards and the two other ningmai guards changed expression.
The three guards were completely covered in golden armor, only revealing their eyes. The threes
gazes were cold and indifferent, without a hint of emotion. Their killing intent was tangible, each
person was holding an exaggeratedly large broadsword that seemed designed to made people feel
even more intimidated.
Where did these three come from?
The heart of the guard leader sunk to the bottom. The brutality revealed by the aura of the three
golden armor guards surpassed any bandit he had ever encountered! All three made his heart
move and feel a strong sense of danger. He knew what this meant. It meant that the cultivation of
all three people were higher than him!
Hong Yangs heart was even more stunned. The gap between his cultivation and the three golden
armor guards was even larger, so he felt it even more strongly. Ningmai! These three were
actually ningmai! In an instant, he was able to judge the other was of uncommon origins.
In Sky Moon Jie, ningmai was the most powerful xiuzhe that could be hired, and even then it was
very difficult to hire them. The three ningmai guards under his command had been sent by the
merchant house. He had tried to hire his own but had never succeeded.
His eyes landed on the three.
The flying swords that the three golden armor guards were wearing, the golden ling armor
covering their bodies, they were not ordinary!
Your patronage is one hundred pieces of third-grade jingshi per person, The youths voice was
not loud, refreshing and clear as the spring wind.
Hong Yang refreshingly took out the jingshi he prepared and handed over, smiling and said,
What is this little brother called?
Uncle can call me Gongsun Cha, Gongsun Cha smiled as he took the jingshi. Calculating the
income today, the smile on his face became greater.

Oh, so it is Little Gongsun Brother! Hong Yang bowed with his hands, and pretended to be
surprised, Your sect is? This one has passed the Desolate Wood Reef many times, and has never
seen the island so prosperous, your sect really is good at managing!
Gongsun Cha smiled, We are roaming xiu, no sect.
Roaming xiu? Hong Yang almost spat blood. Was he kidding, the roaming xiu of Sky Moon Jie,
how could they have such power?
Gongsun Cha pointed at a row of houses. You can find a place to rest. No one will disturb you.
If you need supplies, not far up ahead is a shop. Of course, the items will be a bit more
expensive. You can rest, and leave at anytime, However, if you wish to enter again, you will need
to pay the fee again.
Finishing, Gongsun Cha left. He was a very busy person.
Seeing the other did not show signs of making more demands, Hong Yangs heart finally rested.
He was transporting an astonishing number of talismans, and naturally was very nervous, being
suspicious along the trip.
They walked in the direction that Gongsun Cha had pointed in towards the houses.
The houses were very simple, each yard made from normal rocks without any decoration, and no
comfort to speak of. However, many of the houses were occupied. Hong Yang suddenly stopped,
Is it Long Zhen Sanren?
A middle-aged xiuzhe drinking in the yard suddenly raised his head, joyful surprise on his face,
Storekeeper Hong! He hurriedly to stand and greet, Come in, come in, I didnt think I would
encounter Storekeeper Hong here, lucky lucky!
Hong Yang motioned for the guards to guard the outside and walked in with the leader of the
guards. He smiled and said, Sanrens relaxed attitude, this little brother has never been able to
learn it.
Haha! Brother Hong always talks so well. Come come come, sit sit sit! Long Zheng Sanren
said.
Hong Yang was not courteous and sat down opposite Long Zhen Sanren. Long Zhen Sanren was
one of his old acquaintances, and they had known each other before he had became the
storekeeper and had kept in contact after that. Long Zhen Sanren was dedicated to cultivation. A
decade ago, he had already broken through to ningmai second stratum, his present cultivation
was unknown.
Does Sanren know the history of the island owner? Hong Yang asked in a low voice.

Ha ha, Old Brother must have just entered the island, Long Zhen Sanren seemed to have
expected that Hong Yang would ask, and said with the smile. Old Brother definitely would not
be unfamiliar with the owner of the island. This island was originally the property of Heart Lake
Sword Sect, and then it switched to Wu Kong Sword Sect. Their disciple, Zuo Mo, was sent to
guard this place.
Didnt Wu Kong Sword Sect move to Bright Wave Jie? Hong Yang could help but ask.
Ha ha, Zuo Mo does not belong to a sect now, so he is the owner of the island, Long Zhen
Sanren.
Hong Yang stilled and then gasped, Impossible! How can Wu Kong Sword Sect abandon their
core disciple? Even more, it is Zuo Mo! The leader of the guards behind him also had a face full
of disbelief. Such a talented disciple as Zuo Mo, no sect would easily abandon him.
I dont understand what had happened, but right now, the master of the island is undoubtedly
Zuo Mo, Long Zhen Sanren suddenly remembered something, Speaking of it, Old Brother
really came at a good time!
Oh, how so? Hong Yang still hadnt recovered from the last shock and asked instinctively.
This Zuo Mo is really a genius. He astounded everyone by making the Golden Crow Pill before.
Now, somehow, he made Golden Crow Fire! Long Zhen Sanren sighed.
Golden Crow Fire! Hong Yang jumped in fright, Fourth-grade Golden Crow Fire?
Yes, that Golden Crow Fire! Long Zhen Sanren smiled, So I say that Old Brother really came
at a good time. The news has not spread yet. Otherwise, countless people would have headed
here already.
Fourth-grade Golden Crow Fire Hong Yang muttered.
Long Zhen Sanren took a drink of tea, I heard the news when I encountered Bo Feng on the
road. Pity that I have no power to purchase it. Old Brother, you might not know, but the Black
Wind Bandits attacked this place, but they were all killed!
He shook his head, sighing, I was dumbstruck when I heard this news. All killed! And it was the
Black Wind Bandits! If Wu Kong Sword Sect learned this, they would be so regretful. Zhuji and
able to kill the Black Wind Bandits, we have really wasted our lives.
Just a few days earlier, he broke through to ningmai. Such a genius, I have never heard of one
like him!

Hong Yang seemed to be struck by lightning, his entire head ringing. Long Zhen Sanren had
given him too much news, so much he needed time to digest it. They chatted for a little more
before he bid farewell. He needed to digest all this.

The next day, he found Gongsun Cha.


I heard that the island is selling Golden Crow Fire. This one wishes to buy.
Gongsun Cha brought Hong Yang to Zuo Mo.
When Hong Yang saw Zuo Mo, the stone in his heart landed. Zuo Mo could be considered one of
the most talented and famous youths in Sky Moon Jie, and he was skilled in making dan. His
business reputation had been very good before.
When he heard about the Golden Crow Fire, he couldnt sit still. Fourth-grade Golden Crow Fire
was not something that he could buy when he wanted to. If he had a chance to buy it, his heart
moved. If he could buy Golden Crow Fire, it could be counted as a large achievement. When he
returned to the merchant house, his status would rise.
Also, the clever Hong Yang had other plans. Other than Golden Crow Fire, Zuo Mos personal
wealth was extremely large. This kind of person was the high-end customer that business people
liked the most.
You want to buy Golden Crow Fire? Zuo Mo looked at Hong Yang, his mood well. Finally,
someone was coming to buy Golden Crow Fire!
Yes! Hong Yang said, Can this one take a look at the true face of Golden Crow Fire?
The others carefulness did not make Zuo Mo feel displeasure. This meant that the other truly
had interest in buying. He took out a mini box, opened it and pushed it in front of Hong Yang.
A pure gold flame jumped in the box, the yang and domineering presence filled the room.
Hong Yang was slightly excited.
Golden Crow Fire! As expected, it really was Golden Crow Fire! And it was very pure.

Suppressing the excitement in his heart, Hong Yang asked, How does Mister Zuo plan on
selling this. On the market now, Golden Crow Fire of this quality, the price is usually about two
pieces of fourth-grade jingshi.
Hong Yangs price was very just. However, Zuo Mo who heard the other meaning in Hong
Yangs words, followed along and said, Does Storekeeper Hong have a suggestion?
Hong Yang knew the following was the most crucial time, and would test his skill as a
salesperson. He seemed to have returned to those days as an apprentice. He was slightly excited.
He said, This one does not have much jingshi now, but have some interesting things that Mister
Zuo might find interesting.
Interesting things? Zuo Mo reacted very quickly. He hadnt thought that he would become the
target of a sales pitch.
However, he decided to see what the other could take out first.
Translator Ramblings: Seven hundred and fifteen chapters to go.
Zuo Mo meets a fellow businessperson! The island is being managed well. I wonder if Zuo Mo
could be accused of war profiteering? On the other hand, this is much better than being a bandit.
Of Zuo Mos pets, the most intelligent would be Silly Bird. She was his first steed, and was
crucial in his escape for his life during his battle with Chang Heng. Its better to think of her as a
person with a developed personality. Her show-off attitude is actually a great fit for Zuo Mos
greediness. A weird bird for a weird owner. Lil Pagoda is Zuo Mos son and it is also
intelligent and emotional. Lil Black usually doesnt communicate as well as Silly Bird and Lil
Pagoda can with Zuo Mo. The fault lies in that Lil Black started out as a low-level worm so it
needs time to climb up the grades.

Chapter Two Hundred and One Armed To The Teeth
Zuo Mo was dazzled by the talismans in front of him.
Noticing the change in Zuo Mos eyes, Hong Yang was very proud.
He took out a pair of silver wings the size of his palm.
Look, this pair of Thunder Flowing Light Wings are intermediate fourth-grade. It is the
upgraded version of Thunder Wings. As fast as lighting and famed for its speed. This pair of
Thunder Flowing Light Wings was forged by jindan experts. Other than its peerless speed, its
consumption of ling power was made to be very low. At full speed, it would use one jing of ling
power every two hours, and if it was at eighty percent of its speed, it would only use half a jing
every two hours. Such a fine item, it only is sixty piece of fourth-grade jingshi!
Zuo Mo did not hesitate in nodding. Ill take it!

Do you want to taste the extreme speed? Zuo Mo was too familiar with the advertisement for
Thunder Wings. Even more this was Thunder Flowing Light Wings, an even better version. It
was much faster. Lightning sparked around the palm-sized wings extremely beautifully.
Hong Yang was joyous. Before he could speak, he heard Zuo Mo add, Four pairs!
Four pairs! Two hundred and forty pieces of fourth-grade jingshi! Hong Yang felt like a
blooming flower, a feeling of happiness spreading through his body. This trip was worth it!
Big customer! Definitely a big customer!
Look, the presence, the spending, this was the biggest whale among whales.
Hong Yang was excited, completely excited. He perceptively discovered just how full Zuo Mos
wallet was.
It was as though he was shot up with chickens blood, he felt the blood in his body burning as
though it was exploding. He suppressed the impulse to shout. He sounded the horn of battle!
Ten Thousand Appearances Gloves, referring to everything in the universe. Low fourth-grade,
not extremely fine, but very practical. Wearing these gauntlets it means having the power of ten
thousand, one sword strike will be able to break open a mountain, unable to be stopped! If it was
just this , I would be ashamed to take it out. Its biggest benefit is it uses almost no ling power.
Even zhuji can wear it. Twenty pieces of fourth-grade jingshi, a beautiful price!
Buy! Putting it on to try, Zuo Mo did not hesitate in nodding. Four pairs! He thought of the
three golden armor guards wearing the gloves. Adding on their exaggerated red broadswords,
they could just charge through his enemies. Zuo Mo couldnt help but be excited.
Seven Star Sword Boots, intermediate fourth-grade, the Seven Star Step Method is wondrous,
unable to be predicted. As long as you are wearing it, you can easily avoid all kinds of attacks,
your steps traceless, the best item for short-range movement. Other than that, it has a Seven Star
Sword Formation, if you step in a Seven Stars pattern, the formation would take form
automatically, making your attacks undefendable. Each pair is only seventy four fourth-grade
jingshi.
Buy! Zuo Mos eyes were bright, as he unhesitatingly nodded. Four pairs!
Hong Yang completely got into the rhythm, despite having never been as excited as he was now.
Same Heart Necklace. This is a rare upper fourth-grade talisman. It can be called great
craftsmanship. It is able to let your mind connect to six others. The best aid to melee fighting!
One hundred and fifty pieces of fourth-grade jingshi!
Zuo Mos eyes could not move away. He instantly nodded. Buy!

This was truly a good thing!


He instantly got the three golden armor guards to come over. He put on the Same Heart
Necklace, and cast the corresponding spell. He instantly felt three clear intangible connections.
His mind moved, and one of the golden armor guards suddenly went forward three steps.
Zuo Mo was overjoyed. With this necklace, his offensive strength was elevated.
This is Snake Pupil Belt
The battle was not finished

When Hong Yang went back to his residence, he was still somewhat dazed. What he had
experienced today had been like a dream. Zuo Mo had almost cleared out all the talismans in his
ring. He had never encountered a customer as rich as this one, it was too scary!
Thinking about the little pile of mini boxes in his ring, the feeling of surrealism became even
stronger.
This time, he really made a profit!

Zuo Mo saw the golden armor guards armed to the teeth, and grinned. All fourth-grade talismans
that dazzled a persons eyes. The present golden armor guards could be described by one phrase
only deadly weapons!
Gongsun Cha and Chun Yu Cheng were dumbstruck. Was this xiuzhe? It was three display racks
for talismans!
Any place that a talisman could be hung on the body of the golden armor guard, Zuo Mo did not
leave it empty.

Hands holding the crimson fire broadsword, bodies covered in golden armor, feet encased in
Seven Star Sword Boots, hands wearing Ten Thousand Appearances Gloves, waist tied with the
Snake Pupil Belt, and Thunder Flowing Light Wings on the back!
Red, green, gold, silver, with Zuo Mos terrible sense of beauty, there naturally was no beauty
here. Everyones first thought when they would see this was only be nouveau riche! So
rich!
It was like those rich country bumpkins plating their teeth in gold, wanting everyone to know.
Even Gongsun Cha and Chun Yu Cheng felt disdain. But other than that, it evoked deep fright.
The thick killing intent spilling from the three golden armor guards made one have to directly
look and judge the terrifying power contained under this ugly grandeur!
Gongsun Cha and Chun Yu Cheng also received many talismans, mostly for life-saving and
escaping. The two of them did not have any fighting power at all. If they had offensive talismans,
they wouldnt even be able to use a fraction of its power. However, the husbandry and butchery
jade scrolls and life-saving talismans made the two smile. Especially Gongsun Cha. After he
received the white medal, it was hard to progress as jade scrolls were hard to find.
Other than talismans, Zuo Mo had bought large amounts of materials from Hong Yang,
especially some fourth-grade materials.
However, this furious shopping spree had emptied him of Golden Crow Fire.
But Zuo Mo did not care. He could gather Golden Crow Fire at any time. It wasnt difficult for
him. With this batch of talismans, to say of nothing else, their offensive power had multiplied.
He had the confidence to face anyone under jindan.
However, what he felt demotivated by was the golden armor guards seemed born to fight.
Compared to himself, they did not seem to need to practice to easily use the talismans to reach
their full potentials. Zuo Mo gaped.
Deeply struck, Zuo Mo could only slowly adjust. Like the Seven Star Sword Boots, if he needed
to activate the sword formation, he needed to do seven steps after the other in the correct
locations.

When the fully armored golden armor guards appeared on the Desolate Wood Reef the next day,
they caused a small disturbance. Any xiuzhe that saw them couldnt help but have a stunned
expression.
Hong Yang didnt dare to stay long, leaving the next day.
Pu Yao coldly looked at the gradually shrinking black water lake. The black water lake was only
a quarter of the size it had been originally. Those human-like monsters were continuously
transporting black water from the lake to the altar.
The old-fashioned and crude altar was now completely black without any glow.
Almost there, Pu Yao muttered. He blew out black air. Those human-like monsters once again
landed in the lake water.
After that, he waved his sleeve. Large amounts of materials were added to the lake water, many
of them ones that Zuo Mo had bought from Hong Yang. The black lake water started to bubble,
like a boiling pot of porridge.
Pu yaos right palm opened slightly, a red-black flame appeared at the center of his pal,
Hiss!
His hand did not move, but the red-black flame suddenly turned into a fire dragon and charged at
the altar.
The red-black fire flamed as it surrounded the altar, the flames flickering and enchanting.
Pu Yao inhaled deeply, his hands reaching out.
His hands changed movements. His slightly closed bloody eye suddenly widened, commanding
lightly, Rise!
The altar that was shrouded in fire rose at command and started to fly towards the black lake,
only slowly landing as it reached the center of the lake. As it carried the flames that were so red
they were almost black, it floated at the center of the lake.
Pu Yaos expression was solemn, his eyes focused, not daring to slip, as his hands changed shape
again.
It was like the fire was poured on oil, spreading across the surface of the black water. In a blink,
the entire black water lake was shrouded in flame.

Pu Yao finally released a breath. He reached out his hand, the black water lake dramatically
shrinking until it became palm sized. Then the mini lake flew into his hand, the surrounding
flame silently burning.
After being forged for many more months, the Nether Pool could form!
A deep exhaustion came from his body. Pu Yao felt unspeakably tired and sighed lightly inside.
The present him was so weak.

Zuo Mos excitement had not faded. He had never bought so many talismans before, and so
many fourth-grade talismans!
The feeling of being so rich was so good!
Not bad, you are at ningmai. Pu Yao suddenly appeared, He seemed slightly exhausted. Then
lets continue with the earth energy.
Zuo Mo felt as though a bucket of cold water was poured on his head.
Drawing out earth energy! He finally understood what was extreme grief born of extreme joy

It was alright though; this had benefits for him, so Zuo Mo comforted himself in this way.
Pu Yaos actions were unusually fast. In a blink, the earth energy inside Zuo Mos body was
cleanly swept away. Zuo Mo dropped to the ground, paralyzed, his body occasionally
convulsing. Pu Yao glanced at Zuo Mo on the ground. His face showed pleasured, before he
disappeared.
Zuo Mos mind was blank.
It was four hours later when his numb mind finally recovered.
Why, why was the feeling this time was stronger than before?
Was it a side effect of breaking through to ningmai?

Before, he had assumed that he had gradually adjusted to the pain of earth energy being forcibly
drawn out, he hadnt thought the pain would suddenly increase. Without any preparation, Zuo
Mo instantly became a tragedy.

A female stared at the large river in front of her. Behind her was a silent and solemn, wellorganized troop.
Have you found out?
Yes! A middle-aged man said respectfully, The location of Stars in Daytime is Sky Moon Jie.
It was not long ago, about a year ago.
One year ago The female sighed lightly. Im very curious which daren it is.
The middle-aged mans eyes were filled with a fanatical heat. A daren that could escape from
the Yao Forging Tower, it definitely is a daren that managed to survive the Thousand Year Great
War!
Thousand Year Great War a long time ago.
Miss!
Nothing, Im just reflecting. The female smiled. Our generation is very lucky.
Yes! The middle-aged man couldnt help but be excited.
Have there been any suspicious targets? The female asked.
Not yet. The middle-aged male gave a realistic plan. We have already found the jie rivers to
Sky Moon Jie. We only need to lock the jie rivers, and we will have plentiful time to slowly
investigate.
Alright, it is a stupid method.
Yes! Our previous infiltrators were impeded by others, so
Nothing, stupid methods are more effective sometimes. The female waved her hand.

Yes.
Glancing at the jie river, the female said, Depart.
Yes!
Translator Ramblings: So I mixed up a thread from the Novel Updates Forum with the Novel
Translations subreddit. The discussion about parents was in the general category here.
Daren is the general term used to refer to officials and people of status and power. Im going to
use it a lot because Honorable Personage, or Sir are not enough to cover the meanings.
Going Greetings to panjandrum/VIP is also quite awkward.
Zuo Mo throws around his money and has terrible sense about appearances.
Time-travel and dimensional-travel are very common plot devices. It erases a characters
mistakes, give them foresight and knowledge, and usually sets them up to win when they lost in
their previous life if the character is born back in time. There is also being reborn in another
persons body. In dimensional travel, knowledge from ones modern life becomes an aid if they
are reborn in historical times, and they have a small edge if they are born in a different world.
Sometimes the rebirth element is almost unnecessary except for the author to easily relate
something in the modern world to the setting of the novel without having to explain or show how
something works or happens. In novels where the character ends back at a certain point in their
life, it is to change a major event that may be their fault. The struggles that character encounters
are almost always solved through advance knowledge and the author seems to be unable to think
of a plausible solution. If a character ends up in another persons body, it becomes an opportunity
for the author to compare how their characters contrast in dealing with situations. The great
majority of the time, the new owner of the body does much better.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Two Territory Intrusion
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, Brian, and warlord212.
Chapter Two Hundred and Two Territory Intrusion
Zuo Mo played with the beast service card in his hand, as a multi-colored butterfly flew around
him. Chun Yu Cheng named this multi-colored butterfly Rainbow Mark Butterfly, it was the
most outstanding ling beast he had ever raised up until now.
Zuo Mo could feel an extremely weak presence come from the Rainbow Mark Butterfly. The
thoughts were very weak, and there were many images that were indistinct. This was a

characteristic unique to low level ling beasts. The higher the grade of the ling beast, the more
intelligent it would be. High level ling beasts were not much different than xiuzhe.
This Rainbow Mark Butterfly was only third-grade, and its intelligence just forming. Naturally,
there would be many messages that Zuo Mo could not understand.
However, it could accurately understand Zuo Mos orders and was very obedient. The beast pool
had been constructed to make jingshi. He had never thought that he wouldnt lack for jingshi
now. So the batch of ling butterflies had been turned from a business product into for their own
use.
The Rainbow Mark Butterfly was the most outstanding of the three ling butterflies. It had three
spells: Rainbow Pupils, Illusion Poison, Poison Change.
He ordered the Rainbow Mark Butterfly to cast the Rainbow Pupils. The Rainbow Mark Butterly
lightly fluttered its wings, a rainbow light landed on Zuo Mos body. His eyes were suddenly
covered in a layer of faint five-colored light. Zuo Mo felt the world in front of him change.
Everything he saw was grey-white.
The silently masticating Rainbow Mark Butterfly communicated before Zuo Mo understood. The
so-called Rainbow Pupil was to detect poison. It could detect the danger of poisonous items.
Zuo Mo did not cultivate poison so the spell was not very useful for him. The only place he
could use it was in dan-making.
Compared to Rainbow Pupil, Illusion Poison was much more interesting. Illusion Poison was to
use poison to create illusion. Zuo Mo was very interested. He instantly thought of the uses for
this spell. If he secretly fortified a few places of his formation with illusion poison, then no one
would detect it.
However, the spell most important to Zuo Mo was the third spell poison change! Rather than
calling it a spell, poison change was more like a talent. According to Chun Yu Chengs
explanation, if he kept on feeding the Rainbow Mark Butterfly poison, especially high-grade
poison, when it reached a certain level, it could cause the Rainbow Mark Butterfly to transform
and enter a higher grade.
As the grade increased, the intelligence of a ling beast would increase, and there was a possibility
of the addition of a spell. It was a pity that Zuo Mo did not have any interest in poison, much less
high-grade poison.
Suddenly, Zuo Mo smacked his forehead. How did he forget that? Didnt his Inky Black Lava
White Fire have a deadly poison? That was the poison obtained by processing a fourth-grade
Inky Black Lotus Seed.

The grade of the Inky Black Lotus Fire was too low. Zuo Mo had decided to use the Golden
Crow Fire as the primary one. It was perfect for him to split the fire apart. The poison for the
Rainbow Mark Butterfly, the fire for Lil Pagoda. Even though the grade of the Inky Black Lava
White Fire was not high, but it was still a fire seed, and quite pure.
But before that, Zuo Mo still needed to do one thing: forge the Blue Ice sword. The Blue Icicle
Crystal could only be forged with a cold fire. The grade of the Golden Crow Fire was higher, but
the attribute was not correct.
The Blue Icicle Crystal sword billet was about half a chi long, its body shaped like a prism.
When the light reflected on the facets of the prism, it was very beautiful.

Three days later, the Blue Ice Sword took form!


The entire body was like a blue icicle, the tip of the sword extremely sharp. The body of the
sword was made out of countless facets. As it floated in the air, a mist naturally formed around
the sword.
Zuo Mos mind moved. Pew, the Blue Ice Sword entered the ground, only leaving behind a
sword shaped hole. There was a circle of clear ice cracks around the hole. It could be seen just
how cold it was.
Zuo Mos forging skill was not high and the Blue Ice Crystal was just lower fourth-grade. The
grade of the Inky Black Lava White Fire was also too low. He had barely managed to forge a
fourth-grade flying sword.
He didnt care that much. The five essence sword set emphasized the cooperation between the
different qualities of the flying swords.
Taking apart the Inky Black Lava White Fire, however, had taken Zuo Mo quite a bit of effort.
The poison from the Inky Black Lotus had long ago merged into the flame. Zuo Mo did not have
the strength at his cultivation level to take it apart. However, he thought of a clever solution, let
Lil Pagoda deconstruct it.
The present Lil Pagoda only needed a bit to break through to fourth-grade, its control greatly
increased. It could control how to decompose what was put into it.

The Inky Black Lava White Fire was quickly taken apart. The Inky Black Lotus poison was
separated out. What surprised Zuo Mo was that this ball of Inky Black Lotus poison was an
invisible substance. When he used ling power to carefully surround this deadly poison, he was
instantly alarmed. His ling power was quickly consumed.
As expected from a fourth-grade Inky Black Lotus poison!
This discovery made him hesitate. Could the Rainbow Mark Butterfly tolerate such a strong
poison? But quickly, he could feel the Rainbow Mark Butterflys anticipation and joy. The
Rainbow Mark Butterfly lightly flapped its multi-colored wings, and a circle of light surrounded
the poison.
The ring of light continuously shrunk until it disappeared.
Zuo Mo was slightly disappointed. A line of black had appeared on the wings of the Rainbow
Mark Butterfly, but there was no other change. Lil Pagoda absorbed the fire seed, but there were
no signs of another breakthrough.
Alright, he could not be too greedy, Zuo Mo mumbled.
He started to absorb the Golden Crow Fire.

The atmosphere of the Desolate Wood Reef was nervous and fretful. Everyones face was
slightly heavy. A few days ago, several xiuzhe had escaped from the jie river.
They had encountered a group of very strong xiuzhe. That group killed everyone they saw. Many
xiuzhe didnt even have the time to flee before they were killed.
Instantly, the Desolate Wood Reef became tense. These injured xiuzhe had no strength to fly over
the Endless Ocean, and could only stay on the Desolate Wood Reef. Those xiuzhe that had
originally planned to travel to Little Mountain Jie through the jie river didnt dare to move
recklessly, and waited to see what would happen.
The number of xiuzhe on the Desolate Wood Reef increased, but no one dared to cause a
disturbance. Other than the intimidation of the three golden armor guards, they also understood,
if there really was a powerful enemy, the formation on the island was their strongest defense.

Without the beast pool, Chun Yu Cheng was idle. His face was full of worry. Theres more than
six hundred xiuzhe on the island, and more than twenty ningmai. If something happens, that
wouldnt be good. Shixiong is also in seclusion
What are you afraid of? Gongsun Cha was unconcerned and said heartlessly, Worst case, we
can just flee.
What do you think the people in the jie river are? Killing everyone they see! They really have
no regard for the law! Chun Yu Cheng was righteously indignant.
Gongsun Cha teased the grey butterfly and said lazily, Who knows, probably a group of people
who couldnt think things through.
Suddenly, the crowd on the island shifted. The two instantly stopped what they were doing and
stood up.
Far away in the sky, there were many black dots.
Chun Yu Cheng inhaled sharply, his face pale, voice trembling as he pointed at the black dots in
the sky. What what is that?
Gongsun Cha also was motionless at his spot with a shocked expression.
The dense crowd of black dots flew at the Desolate Wood Reef at astonishing speed like a black
cloud rolling over the sky. With a suffocating presence, they silently moved to a distance twenty
li from the Desolate Wood Reef.
Yao yaomo
Someone trembled out those two words. It was as though a spark had been thrown into a pot of
oil. The deathly silent Desolate Wood Reef suddenly exploded.
Yaomo Chun Yu Cheng felt his legs sore and weak, dropping to the ground.
There were hints of terror in Gongsun Chas eyes, but the terror was quickly changed to
curiosity.
Was this yaomo?
It wasnt just him that had this thought. In reality, this thought uncontrollably flashed across
many peoples minds on the Desolate Wood Reef.

Other than the somewhat strange dark green skin, the yaomo in the sky didnt seem much
different than xiuzhe. On their foreheads, they all had a piece of crystal, the color and shape
varied. Their bodies were mostly slender and were very handsome regardless of sex.
This is yaomo? Wow! Gongsun Cha tsked. He rubbed his chin, Oh, almost as handsome as
me, thats not very good.
However, he quickly became speechless.
The yaomo in the sky quickly moved forward three li.
Everyone was intimidated.
People now found that the dark-green skinned yaomo in the sky were in well-organized ranks
that seemed to have been measured with a ruler. During the flying process, the entire troop did
not have any hint of disorder, they were so synchronized that it was frightening.
When several dozen people were so, everyone would find it to be nothing, but when thousands of
people were so organized, an invisible pressure formed. It was as if there was a thousand-catty
rock on everyones chest. All the noise stopped, like someone had cut their throats.
Really the elite! Gongsun Chas eyes glowed as he muttered. He then looked in sympathy at
the panicking xiuzhe on the island, and couldnt help but sigh, And there go the rabble!
The contrast between the two sides was too strong. Of the thousands of people on the other side,
no one was speaking, it was deathly silent. The xiuzhe on the island was panicking like a crowd
of headless chickens.
Prepare to run for your life, Gongsun Cha said to Chun Yu Cheng.
What about Shixiong? Chun Yu Cheng asked, his expression blank.
Find him. Gongsun Cha said.
Im here, At some unknown time, Zuo Mo appeared behind the two of them.
Escape, Gongsun Cha spread his hands at Zuo Mo.
Zuo Mo grimaced. He hadnt thought that he would encounter this just after he came out of
seclusion. He knew that Gongsun Cha was right. Even though the island had six hundred xiuzhe,
it was just a grab-bag of random cultivators.
Looking at the military troop that was so terrifyingly organized, a hint of helplessness rose in
Zuo Mos heart. The difference in power was not something a formation could bridge.

Is it really yaomo? Chun Yu Cheng was still somewhat lost. Gongsun Cha looked in curiosity
at Zuo Mo.
En, yao, not mo, Zuo Mo nodded, Mostly Ghost Attendant Yao and some Night Stock Yao.
Ghost Attendant Yao? Night Stock Yao? Gongsun Cha had an interested expression. To them,
yaomo was a very distant monster.
The most basic yao are called little yao, about our lianqi. The next level is Ghost Attendant yao,
like our zhuji. The Night Stock yao are equivalent to our ningmai, Zuo Mo explained simply.
That scared me. Then cant we hold this place? Chun Yu Cheng said excitedly.
Gongsun Cha shook his head but didnt speak. Zuo Mo grimaced, Probably not. Yaomo
emphasize killing and have endured fighting since they were born. They live more harshly than
we do. Also, you can also see their organization. Our side only has scattered soldiers and heroes,
we are not a match.
Then what do we do? Chun Yu Chengs little face became pale again.
Flee! Zuo Mo gritted his teeth and said hatefully.
His heart was filled with sorrow.
The good days of sitting and taking in money had reached an end
Translator Ramblings: We have civilians who cant fight, people who can fight, and then
the military. Numbers is its own kind of battle strategy. The yao finally show up after so much
foreshadowing.
Ironically enough, translation is actually low on my list of priorities for when I have the spare
time considering that it takes up the majority of my spare time. Translating is after when I dont
have novels to read, finish reading the news, run out of lives on Candy Crush and lots of other
things. Some days, I translate a few words and I get distracted. Then there are the translation
breaks before fights. My biggest break was a whole week not translating because I didnt want to
translate the Ling Ying Sect chapters with Chang Heng and Zuo Mos fight.

Chapter Two Hundred and Three Date Seed Ship


Miss, the position of this island is extremely good, it is perfect for guarding the jie river
The middle-aged man said respectfully.
Is that the formation of a xiuzhe? The female did not reply. She was staring at the hoop of light
that was like a sun above the island.
Yes, Miss. He opened his mouth, but perceptively swallowed his words.
Oh. The female said faintly, Check first if there is any suspicious targets among them. If not,
push them out.
Yes! The middle-aged man instantly complied.
You really are kind. A male beside the female said in a sarcastic tone. He was like a crane
among the chickens, his entire person like a burning flame, a flame red crystal on his forehead.
Sweeping a glance at the rebellious male, the female was calm. Yan Feng, shut your mouth.
Yan Feng smirked. The xiuzhe on this island are just rabble. Give me five hundred troops, and I
can sweep them clean! If you let them go, isnt it letting them off easy?
The female was not moved. Our job is to find someone.
Yan Feng suddenly became excited, Mu Xi, you forget that they are xiuzhe! Our enemy! The
more we kill, the less enemies we have
Mu Xis tone became cold, Sir Yan Feng, please watch your tone. You are speaking to your
direct commander. If you overstep again, you will be treated according to military law!
Yan Feng was so angry fire came out of his eyes. The last bit of intelligence allowed him to keep
his control. He knew the woman in front of him would do as she said.
The composition of yao was extremely complex. There were many species. Different than the
reproduction of humans, yao were born from nature, formed from the ling energy of the world.
Like Mu Xi, she came from the largest clan of yao, the Wood Clan. They were all formed from
flora. Yan Feng, came out of Desolate Western Mountain Sky Fire branch. The reproduction of
the Fire Clan was not as prosperous of the Wood Clan. They did not have many yao but they
were natural fighters, their personality explosive and brave.
The Wood, Fire, Gold, Water, and Earth Clans were the five largest clans of the yao, but there
were other little clans as many as sand. Due to the abundance of yao, every decade, some small
clans would be born. Due to this, yao society was very accepting and very transparent.

This type of transparent and complete government was like an enormous squid that reached its
tentacles into every corner. It was also this governance that had borne from countless great minds
and strong elders that allowed the yao to quickly recover.
For example, Mu Xi was the most accomplished of the youths of the Wood Clan. Even though
her cultivation was not outstanding, but she had started her duties very early. Yan Feng rarely
found an opponent that could match his offensive power and was even stronger than Mu Xi, but
due to his infighting within the ranks, he was punished and placed under Mu Xis command.
In reality, the two once had been classmates, but they had always been at odds.

Zuo Mo found he actually wasnt nervous. He was slightly surprised. It seemed that fighting and
killing really hardened people.
However, Pu Yaos words instantly made him nervous. They have come to find you.
Find me? Zuo Mo gaped.
Stars in Daytime, you alerted them. Pu Yao was very calm. This made the nervousness in Zuo
Mos heart decrease.
Stars in Daytime, what does it do? Zuo Mo asked a question that had been hidden in his heart
for a long time.
Not much. Some strong yaomo would try to borrow the power of the stars to recover from
serious wounds, and this forms the Stars in Daytime. Pu Yao said.
It was you?
Pu Yao smiled coldly, None of my business! He then frowned. But these things are slightly
irritating.
Arent you a yao? Should you be of the same kind as them? Zuo Mo couldnt really grasp Pu
Yaos attitude. However, if it wasnt Pu Yao, who was it? Was it the gravestone?
Pu Yao did not like xiuzhe, Zuo Mo could understand this, but he could not understand that Pu
Yao didnt even like the yao.

They dont have any connection to me. Pu Yaos face was cold.
Zuo Mo saw that Pu Yao didnt seem to want to mention this matter, and perceptively changed
the topic. Do you have any good suggestions?
Your luck seems pretty good. The arrivals are the Wood Clan. Pu Yao glanced at the organized
ranks of yao troops in the sky. They dont like fighting.
Wood clan? Zuo Mo was very curious. Zuo Mo might have openly spoke about the little yao
before, but that was buying and selling at the same time. Zuo Mo was very unfamiliar with
yaomo. Seeing that he could not avoid a conflict with the yaomo, it was beneficial for him to
know a bit more.
A large clan, but it has many cadet branches. Formed from flora. Pu Yao introduced shortly.
Oh Zuo Mo nodded, not understanding. What was formed from flora? But he knew that
Pu Yao definitely did not have the patience to explain.
Suddenly, Zuo Mo detected a strong consciousness ripple.
Hm! He couldnt help but jump. Such a strong consciousness!
The consciousness ripple came from the other side and swept the sky above the entire Desolate
Wood Reef. Before this, Zuo Mo had been very confident in his consciousness. He had almost
never encountered a xiuzhe who had a stronger consciousness than he did.
But the strength of this consciousness was far above his.
They are searching for you. Such a pity, just Night Stock yao, they believe they have the skill!
Pu Yao smirked. He seemed to understand what Zuo Mo was thinking. Its very normal. They
only cultivate the consciousness, it isnt something a half-ass like you can compare to.
Pu Yaos interest was unknowingly stirred. Yao cultivate the consciousness so the division for
spiritual power is much finer than the xiuzhe. Star fire, manifestation, spirit seed, yin spirit, yao
mansion, six revolutions, and sky channels. You are just at manifestation. Among them, the most
powerful have finished spirit seed. Even though their spirit is weak, but it can easy to kill you.
Manifestation?
When the starfire is full, it manifests, seed born in the heart to become planted in the spirit, the
spirit births the yin spirit, the yin spirit opens the yao mansion spiritual manifestation, oh,
your leaf hand is a manifestation.
The consciousness can become tangible? Zuo Mo asked.

Of course, its so simple, do you really need to think about it? Pu Yaos face was full of
disdain. However, you just entered manifestation, youre very far off from spirit seed.
What is called seed born in the heart? Zuo Mo couldnt help but ask, his head bloated.
Youll know when it is time. Pu Yao had used up his patience.
Then now?
Solve it yourself. Pu Yao said impatiently before disappearing.
They are going to attack. Gongsun Cha pulled Zuo Mo back.
The attacking posture of the other size was so obvious even an idiot could see. Zuo Mo couldnt
help but become nervous. Pulling Gongsun Cha and Chun Yu Cheng, he pushed his voice low,
Prepare to escape.
Where? Chun Yu Chengs face was puzzled.
Gongsun Cha suddenly opened his mouth, Towards the jie river!
The jie river? Little Mountain Jie? Zuo Mo was very surprised, Isnt that heading for the
net?
The Endless Ocean is vast and borderless. We need to fly multiple months to see land, there is
no place to hide. Gongsun Cha was very calm, a hint of heat in his eyes. When its time, these
people will all scatter. Well go the opposite way and break through. They definitely wouldnt
have thought of it.
They just came from Little Mountain Jie, Little Mountain Jie definitely has fallen. If we go to
Little Mountain Jie, we have no escape. Chun Yu Cheng was frightened by Gongsun Chas
suggestion, so frightened he woke up.
This is not certain. Gongsun Cha shook his head. If Little Mountain Jie has fallen, what
would come definitely wouldnt just be this little amount of yao.
This is a little? Chun Yu Cheng pointed at the organized and solemn yao army in the sky, and
shouted.
To us, it seems like a lot. But if they want to attack Sky Moon Jie, it is far too few, Gongsun
Cha said quickly.
Zuo Mo instantly reacted. You mean they are a little troop that snuck in?

Possible. Gongsun Cha said.


What did they sneak in for?
I dont know, they probably have a target?
Zuo Mo suddenly thought of what Pu Yao had said. Did these people really come to find him?
No, to find the yaomo of the Stars in Daytime?
He continued to weigh the choices in his heart. Truthfully, Gongsun Chas suggestion was very
dangerous, no, it was extremely dangerous. But Zuo Mo felt that the success of that suggestion
was very likely. From this, it could be seen that he was in support of Gongsun Chas suggestion.
Chose which one?
He was just a little xiuzhe that had just broken through to ningmai and hadnt seen much. Facing
a choice that would determine life and death, he couldnt help but hesitate.
Yet the other didnt give the time to hesitate.
The sky above the other sides troop was suddenly dark. Strong ling power ripples were like a
harsh wind that swept past.
Damn it!
Zuo Mo jumped in fright. The other side was going to attack. The ling power ripples passing
through the air were the same as [Yang Fiend Hard Lightning] but the terrifying presence it gave
off was hundreds of times stronger. He didnt doubt that their attack would flatten all of Desolate
Wood Reef.
If he didnt run now, when could he run?
He grabbed Gongsun Cha and Chun Yu Cheng, not caring for anything else, and suddenly
jumped into the water.
A gold light flashed, and the Buddha Sound Hoop landed in Zuo Mos bosom, the presence of
the formation on the Desolate Wood Reef weakening.
The Desolate Wood Reef instantly exploded!
He ran! Zuo Mo ran!
Run!

Everyone, run!

At this time, with a large sound, a bolt of lightning twisted and struck the Desolate Wood Reef.
Dong!
A muffled sound hit everyones heart. Those xiuzhe with weak cultivations bled from their
mouths and nose.
Everyone couldnt help but turn their head.
The Desolate Wood Reef with its layers of formations was like paper in front of the lightning,
cleanly wiped out. More than ten of the xiuzhe that moved too slowly were swept by the afterripples and torn to countless pieces, not even having the time shout before their souls were
destroyed.
In the ocean, Zuo Mo didnt have it good either. The blood inside his body was roiling, his ling
power almost spiraled out of control. Gongsun Cha and Chun Yu Chengs faces were pale, the
power of the one attack was so powerful that it even passed into the ocean!
At the border of life and death, Zuo Mo became calm. A date seed appeared on his hand, a
talisman-ship was carved on it. This date seed ship had been taken from Nan Ming Zis body.
However, it required too much ling power, so he hadnt found out how to use it.
In seclusion this time, after finishing forging the five essence sword set, Zuo Mo had spent a lot
of effort on the talismans that he did not understand. He hadnt expected that he found some
methods, and including this date seed boat.
At this time, he didnt dare to hold anything back, the ling power in his body furiously flooding
towards the date seed boat.
A little date red wooden boat with an old aura appeared in front of everyone.
Zuo Mos hand moved.
They felt the scene in front of them blur and then they were inside the ship. The ship was dry and
clean. The water outside the ship seemed to be stopped by an invisible power, unable to enter.
Zuo Mo hurriedly directed the date seed ship to sink to the bottom .The thick water could stop
the search from the others consciousness.
If they could flee to a place that the other could not detect them, they would be temporarily safe.

Translator Ramblings: Little more stuff on yao society and military. Dont speculate too much
since this is just the tip of the iceberg. Zuo Mo knows nothing. Hes just the mouthpieces for Pu
Yao.
I told Lemeres Im going to reply to their comment from yesterday. So, yes, this is a yao military
unit that has attacked what is essentially a civilian outpost. But the status of these two sides are
not equal. It is hard to say that the xiuzhe all fail because of this one encoutner. This is the
military, so there is training and organization on one side. What they are facing is country
bumpkins that are civilians. The yao military win due to numbers and organization, but they
cant be the only side with armies. The story will be a whole less realistic. Mu Xi has clearly
trained for her position through school, and she is an officer. The rest are trained soldiers sent on
this special mission so they probably are not regular foot soldiers. Remember that the xiuzhe are
fleeing Sky Moon Jie and the ones that are passing through Zuo Mos island arent the big sects
but the lower classes. They have no organization that they belong to so not one of them would
stay to fight. That is what causes this instant defeat in this chapter.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Four Improvement
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and Brian.
Chapter Two Hundred and Four Improvement
The date seed ship submerged at a fast rateIn a blink, it had reached ten li under the surface.
Through the windows on the ship, the outside was pitch black. The surroundings were silent, the
noise from the outside was completely blocked
Everyone finally relaxed. The yao army used one attack to destroy any of the hopes they had left.
Silly Bird shook the water off. She looked liked a chicken in soup broth, with all of the drooping
features. Even the proud Silly Bird was scared half to death by the hard lightning that had come
from the sky and became much more docile. When Zuo Mo had come out of seclusion, he had
taken Silly Bird and the others with him.
Chun Yu Cheng collapsed on the ground, heaving. By comparison, Gongsun Cha was much more
composed but there was still a hint of fear lingering in his eyes.
Of everyone, the only ones that could truly maintain their calm were the three Golden Armour
Guards. As usual, they held their swords and stood like statues.

Zuo Mo had recovered from the nervousness. Seeing everyone was complete and whole, his
mood became much better. Just having escaped death, no one in the ship had any interest in
talking, all of them catching their breaths and calming their minds.
After a while, Zuo Mo found his mind had relaxed greatly and stood up, and began inspecting
the date seed ship.
During his seclusion, even though he had figured out how to activate the date seed ship, but he
hadnt studied it. Right now, the date seed ship was their life-saving talisman, he didnt dare to
leave it up to chance.
He walked around the cabin of the ship, closely inspecting it. Chun Yu Cheng and Gongsun Cha
saw his actions and perceptively chose not to speak.
This was
Zuo Mo carefully inspected the formations carved on the date seed ship and was very shocked!
A jingshi talisman!
The date seed ship was a fourth-grade talisman, and it was even a rare jingshi talisman!
Jingshi talismans were talismans that could use jingshi as a source of power.Those were usually
large-sized talismans. The Thousand Wing Boat that Zuo Mo had seen in Dong Fu was a
classical example of a jingshi talisman. Historically, only large sect would forge jingshi
talismans. The materials that were needed were not something a normal xiuzhe could afford.
There were some jingshi talismans for single-person use but not many. Compared to the ling
power inside jingshi, the ling power inside xiuzhe was much purer and easier to control.
This date seed ship was a jingshi talisman. It could carry one hundred xiuzhe, able to fly either in
air or in the water.
Zuo Mos interest was stirred up.
This was the first time he had seen a jingshi talisman. He instantly started to study the formations
on the ship. Jingshi talismans were talismans where formations were used most purely. Xiuzhe
only had to make some simple commands, and it could work on its own.

In a short period of time, he found the locations to put in jingshi. The cabin was empty, and did
not even have tables or chairs. The place to insert the jingshi was on the ceiling.
The ceiling of the cabin had a depiction of the Big Dipper, the seven stars connected. Each star
was the place to put in jingshi.
Zuo Mo took out seven third-grade jingshi from his ring to insert in the positions of the Big
Dipper. When he shoved the last piece of jingshi in, everyone felt the cabin light up, a date
coloured red light emanated from the ship.
Wow, jingshi talisman? Gongsun Cha was surprised.
En, a jingshi talisman that I got from Nan Ming Zi. Zuo Mo stared at the formations on the
ship, calculating inside without turning his head to answer.
Through the consciousness leaf hand, he could clearly see the seals running through the ship. The
more he saw, the more admiration he had. Before this, he had never seen a jingshi talisman
before, so he never had seen jingshi talisman formations before.
The formations were like a gigantic mesh going through the entire date seed ship like they were
the channels of the ship. Ling power flowed out from the seven jingshi into the channels and
activated the formation.
He quickly found the differences between the date seed ship and the talismans he had studied
before. The ling power that came out of the jingshi was very steady. Normal talismans consumed
the ling power of xiuzhe, the ling power would have a variety of changes and would not be so
steady.
There were advantages and disadvantages to both methods.
Jingshi talismans did not consume the ling power of the xiuzhe. As long as there was jingshi, it
could keep working. The disadvantage was that its uses were set, and it was less flexible to
adjusting to sudden changes.
Normal talismans were the exact opposite. Due to consuming the ling power of the xiuzhe, it
could not compare in how long jingshi talismans could be used. However, they could do many
things and were very good at adjusting to sudden changes.
Zuo Mos heart suddenly moved. If the two advantages could be put together, that would be
great!
Once the idea popped up into his head, it could not be erased.

After studying for a while, he started to actually ponder if the flash of inspiration he had was
realistic or not.
The space inside the date seed ship was enough for him to set up large amounts of formations.
The smaller the space was, the harder it was to set up formations. Forging experts could set down
multiple formations in a flying sword the size of a finger.
Zuo Mo was far from reaching that level. Space was very important for him. The bigger the ship
was, the easier it was for him to make modifications.
There were a total of three formations on the date seed ship. One was a space formation, one was
a ling shield formation, the last was a water movement formation.
Zuo Mo paid more attention to the ling shield formation. Its defensive ability was average. He
decided to change the [Micro Light Formation] to a [Seven Bright Micro Light Formation]. Zuo
Mo only needed to put seven [Bright Light Formation] into the [Micro Light Formation] and the
defensive power of the shield would increase by at least fifty percent.
This technique of interlocking child formations was something he had comprehended from the
[Skyring Moon Chime Formation]
The structure of the [Bright Light Formation] was simple and easy to carve, so Zuo Mo quickly
finished the [Seven Bright Micro Light Formation]. The ling shield over the ship gradually
changed, the light becoming more intense and the shield thicker than it had been before.
Zuo Mo nodded in satisfaction. It seems his skill in making formations had improved once again.
Before, this wouldnt have been so simple.
Strengthening the ling shield mean that the consumption of ling power would increase
correspondingly. However, Zuo Mo did not worry about this. Right now, he lacked for
everything except jingshi.
Ge has lots of jingshi!
He suddenly hit his head. Right, how did he forget his greatest advantage!
Chun Yu Cheng and Gongsun Cha were frightened by Zuo Mos action. The two exchanged
looks of puzzlement.
Jingshi! Right now, he had piles of jingshi!
Before, he had been thinking of carving an offensive formation on the ship that could be
controlled by a person. That way, they didnt need to leave the ship, but they could fight against
their enemies.

When Zuo Mo realized his advantage, he suddenly reacted; he had made a mistake.
Since it was hard to control jingshi talismans precisely, rather than think of ways to increase the
control over it, it was better to give the talisman a formation that did not need to be controlled,
like a [Cloud Lightning Net]. He only needed it to protect the ship. As to increasing the
maneuverability of the jingshi talisman, he could slowly study it.
The high consumption of the [Cloud Electrical Lightning Net] was nothing for Zuo Mo who
wanted to keep his life.
The more he thought, the cleverer he found the idea. Even though there were still big gaps, but it
was the most realistic plan at present.
No matter what, his little life came first.
He took out a large pile of materials and started to carve formations inside the cabin.
What is Shixiong doing? Chun Yu Cheng asked.
Gongsun Cha looked over, I dont understand, but he seems to be setting up formations.
We should run, not setting up formations now! Chun Yu Cheng said hurriedly.
I dont know, Gongsun Cha was also puzzled. He could see what Shixiong was generally
doing. Even though he didnt know why Shixiong was putting up formations now, but he
believed in Shixiongs judgement. Currently, the only thing he was so shocked by was the fact
that Shixiong seemed to be playing with the Jingshi Talisman. Could Shixiong could modify
jingshi talismans?
He knew was much harder to modify talismans than to remake them.
After a talisman was successfully forged, it was one complete entity and had reached an
equilibrium. Modifying was equivalent to first breaking the equilibrium and then setting a new
equilibrium.
Had Shxiongs skills with formations reached such a level?
The Golden Armour Guards stood silently. Silly Bird had recovered from the fright, raising her
bird head and stepping her unique bird walk.
Zuo Mo was very careful. [Bright Light Formation] was only an enhancing formation, and did
not have much effect on the equilibrium of the talisman. However [Cloud Lightning Net] was a
third-grade formation. It was very strong and needed large amounts of ling power. Zuo Mo
needed to add a few more channels to conduct ling power to satisfy the [Cloud Lightning Net]

The [Cloud Lightning Net] was not difficult for Zuo Mo. The difficulty laid in setting the seals to
channel the ling power.
The formations on the date seed boat before had been very complete. In order to add more seals
to increase ling power pathways, he needed to change the entire structure.
This was the most difficult part. If he wasnt careful, he could most likely cause the ling power
pathways to intersect and then collapse.
Zuo Mo was very clear about this, so he continuously modelled it in his head before proceeding.

Four hours later, he finally thought it through and started to move.


What he did first was increase the number of jingshi. The ling power expenditure of [Cloud
Lightning Net] was very large. Seven pieces of jingshi was not enough to satisfy its needs. Zuo
Mo added another twenty one pieces of jingshi.
On the ceiling of the ship cabin, twenty eight stars shone.
To save his life, Zuo Mo did not care how much jingshi he had to spend.
Right after, he started to set up the [Cloud Lightning Net] and added more ling power
channelling seals.
This modification took twelve hours. When he finished, he was exhausted.
However, he finally finished!
Hiss hiss!
Sounds came from the date red ling shield. Immediately after, countless fine lines of miniature
lightning appeared on the surface of the ling shield, swimming like little snakes.
Fine lightning appeared at astounding speed and gathered. In the blink of an eye, a net appeared
on the ling shield.
A net constructed of arm-thick lightning!

It was like a silver net had covered all of the date seed ship.
The lightning net slightly trembled, the sound slowly weakening until the hisses had disappeared.
What was wondrous was that, even though they were in the water, the lightning net on the ling
shield showed no signs of dissipating, but was as dense as any other object, silently covering the
ling shield.
The presence of the date seed ship instantly changed.
Translator Ramblings: A jingshi talisman for a jingshi grubbing zombie. I think the
foreshadowing for Zuo Mo needing an escape off an island was pretty obvious compared to what
Fang Xiang has done to lay foundations for previous fights and incidents. Nan Ming Zi came
right after Zuo Mo landed on the island, and gave Zuo Mo his ship. Zuo Mo is surrounded by
the ocean, and how to travel on the ocean .. a ship.
You guys actually asked about the golden armor guards but not Silly Bird! The pets should not
be forgotten.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Five War Chess
This chapter has been brought to you by me, and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Coming early today! Normal time for next chapter.
Chapter Two Hundred and Five War Chess
Where are we heading? Chun Yu Cheng asked uncertainly.
Jie river.
Gongsun Chas face was relaxed, half-lying on the bottom of the cabin, relaxed and idle.
How do you know? Chun Yu Cheng looked worriedly at Zuo Mo Shixiong who was still
working on the date seed ship. Shixiong had been working for several hours and showed no signs
of stopping.
Ha. Shixiong might look careful and conservative, but if hes pressured, hes vicious and
decisive. Gongsun Cha said unconcernedly.

What happens if Little Mountain Jie has been taken by the yaomo? Chun Yu Chengs face was
slightly pale. The strong offensive power of the yao army had almost destroyed his soul.
No way about it. Its all up to luck. Gongsun Cha stretched out his waist, and laid down
completely.
With a hiss, a silver light suddenly flashed outside the ship.
Just having laid down, Gongsun Cha instantly sat up, eyes looking outside. When he saw the
lightning outside the ling shield, he first stilled, and then had joy on his face. Chun Yu Cheng
who was in a fragile state of mind was half-scared to death by the noise.
Hows the power of that thing? Gongsun Cha pointed outside the ship, and asked Zuo Mo who
had finally stopped and walked over.
Better than nothing. Zuo Mo sat down in exhaustion. My skill in formations isnt enough.
This lightning net doesnt have any dead ends but it is way too loose. Dont have high hopes
about the power.
Gongsun Cha nodded, and then asked, How far have we travelled?
This boat goes one hundred li every two hours, how long has it been?
Twelve hours.
Then its six hundred li, Zuo Mo said. Seems no one has chased after us.
I wonder what this yao army is looking for. This is an unexpected calamity. Chun Yu Cheng
sighed.
Zuo Mo naturally could not say the yao army was searching for him, but seeing Chun Yu
Chengs worried expression, he knew this docile person had been frightened too deeply today,
and hurried to comfort him.
The two shidi had two completely different personalities. Chun Yu Cheng was docile, and
somewhat lacking in courage, only interested in animals. Gongsun Cha was the exact opposite.
He was cunning and daring, calm when there was trouble, and had a devious and dark character.
He didnt have much interest in butchering.
Follow the flow. Gongsun Cha inserted and then raised his delicate face, his eyes shining,
Shixiong, theres nothing to do now. Why dont you get them to practice their cooperation?
Zuo Mo understood that Gongsun Cha meant the three golden armor guards.

Cooperation?
Gongsun Chas words reminded him. The blow that the yao army had given them was too strong.
The troops that were so organized they were almost insane, so neat that it seemed almost
impossible, and that lightning attack that they couldnt even hold their heads up against. Zuo Mo
felt that he wouldnt forget it in his life. The shock and panic of the xiuzhe was the perfect
definition of the word rabble.
Every time he thought of it, he felt coldness seep uncontrollably from his heart.
The yao army gave all the xiuzhe on the Desolate Wood Reef a lesson.
Even the stupidest person could see the difference between the two, and could feel the difference
in power. Zuo Mo suddenly had a feeling, that the era of individual power was nearing its end.
However, he quickly threw the problem to the back of his mind. A big problem like an era
ending, it wasnt something a little ningmai like him could relate to. But he agreed greatly with
Gongsun Chas suggestion.
However, while he agreed, how to accomplish it was the true problem, I dont know how.
We can slowly try, Gongsun Chas decisive tone made Zuo Mo look at him. He grinned. Its
better than losing our lives.
For some reason, Zuo Mo felt Gongsun Shidis delicate face was like the raised head of a snake,
vicious and cold.
But when he turned his eyes towards Gongsun, Shidis smile was so sunny and timid that Zuo
Mo felt he was mistaken.
Okay! He nodded.
Before having seen the yao army, Zuo Mo might have found it extraneous, but right now he
didnt hesitate.
This was useful! Very useful!
For him, starting from a blank slate wasnt a new experience. Before, as long as he could make
jingshi, he would work with all his effort! Now, Zuo Mo discovered that his little life was more
important. His belief suddenly turned, anything that could save his little life, he would definitely
put everything in!
The two crowded together and started to discuss.

Both were greenhorns, the mood was vibrant, but quickly, the discussion reached a standoff.
Words had no proof, especially when the two had divergent views, no one could persuade the
other. At this time, Gongsun Cha did not care Zuo Mo was his shixiong. His face was flushed as
he argued, his expression ferocious, he no longer looked like a weak and bashful young master.
If we each have a troop and can really fight, that would be nice. Zuo Mo sighed, Then who is
right, it naturally can be seen.
Yes! Gongsun Chas face was also bitter, holding his head and sighing. Talking soldiers on
paper, it is useless.
A voice suddenly came inside Zuo Mos mind. Want to try? Ive got a way.
Pu Yao suddenly came out.
What way? Zuo Mos mind became alert. Pu Yao might like to boast, but he occasionally had
some real skill.
Pu Yao looked at him. Actually, this kind of thing has been played since a long time ago, like
Seal Soldier Battle Board, like Puppet Chess.
What is that? Hearing those two new terms, Zuo Mo couldnt help but be curious.
It is a kind of War Chess.
War Chess?
Theres many ways to play, like one on one, or many against many. Pu Yao seemed to suddenly
sink into his memories, refocusing after a while. I remember it was quite fashionable back
then.
You have those? Zuo Mo looked suspiciously at Pu Yao.
No. Pu Yao shook his head. The most important part is the rules. It is very easy to make
them. He threw a ball of light at Zuo Mo. Here, these are the rules for all kinds of War Chess
games that I played before, and how to make them.
Hm, when did you become this kind? Zuo Mos gaze became even more suspicious, but his
hands were not slow at all, rapidly catching the ball of light.
I dont want you to die this quickly. Pu Yao looked scornfully at Zuo Mo before disappearing.

The date seed ship silently slid along the bottom in the pitch black water. For everyone, this was
a very long period of boredom. Chun Yu Cheng seemed to be accustomed to this kind of
boredom. He continued to busy himself in his experiments.
Zuo Mo occasionally took out the Golden Crow Fire. He seemed to be forging something.
So boring! Gongsun Cha yawned. He seemed to be the only person that didnt have anything
to do. He had thought about teasing Silly Bird to relieve his boredom but Silly Bird ignored him,
proudly strutting her bird walk in the cabin. Lil Black climbed around the cabin without
exhaustion. Lil Pagoda floated in the air, spinning in its spot. The three golden armor guards
were like three statues, not having moved a finger in days.
Originally, Gongsun Cha had been worried they might meet some water element ling beasts. In
the legends, there were many terrifying ling beasts in the Endless Ocean. However, their luck
seemed to be exceptional and they travelled smoothly.
But these days were really so bland.
Done, Zuo Mo suddenly stated, making Gongsun Cha jump in fright..
He crowded over. Whats done? Hm, what is this? Chess?
En, something called a War Chess, Zuo Mo said uncertainly. I dont know if I made it
correctly. Come, lets try.
Gongsun Cha, so bored he had almost fallen asleep, instantly jumped up. Okay!
Zuo Mo took out a jade scroll, recording down some of the rules that Pu Yao gave him and threw
it to Gongsun Cha.
Hm, interesting! Gongsun Cha took the jade scroll. After a look, he became alert.
Zuo Mo also started to read the rules. Reading it in detail, he was instantly frightened!
F***! This was that complicated?
The dense paragraphs of rules made his head feel numb.
He heard Gongsun Chas voice full of enthusiasm, Hm, this bit is interesting, yes, yes oh,
I understand
Zuo Mo could only force himself to keep reading.

An hour later, when Zuo Mos eyes were unfocused and his brain faint, he suddenly heard
Gongsun Cha say, So interesting, so interesting! Its really too interesting!
Zuo Mo raised his head in shock. He saw Gongsun Cha look excitedly at him, and say, Lets
begin! If I know there was something as fun as this, I wouldnt have learned how to butcher!
What Zuo Mo forged was Puppet Chess. It was simpler. The size of the Seal Soldier Battle Board
was bigger, requiring better skill at forging, and had more complex rules.
Basically, Puppet Chess was made from a set of little illusions. In a circle one zhang wide,
miniature mountains and rivers were perfectly depicted. There were even clouds in the sky that
slowly changed. Suddenly, these white clouds started to rain. Under the rain, the water in the
river suddenly grew. A xiuzhe wearing Taoist robes suddenly charged into the sky from the river,
slowly scanned the surroundings. Seeing there was not anything, the person went back into the
river.
Exquisite! Truly too exquisite! Gongsun Cha gaped, his eyes changing from excited to
scorching.
Zuo Mo was also shocked by such exquisiteness. Even though he had made it from beginning to
end, but he had never thought of the result of the end product.
This wasnt some chess board, it was like a complete little world. Everything inside would
naturally cycle on their own.
So wondrous!
Zuo Mos mind became blank.
Quick quick, how to play? Gongsun Cha urged.
Zuo Mo refocused and handed him a piece of third-grade Black Daze crystal. Put your mind
into it. He also took up a piece of black daze crystal and flooded it with his consciousness.
He felt the scenery in front of his eyes change, and he seemed to be looking from the sky.
Hm, his eyes unconsciously looked down.
Yao!
Nine yao were arranged in an organized square. He could clearly feel the connection between
him and the nine yao. He was even able to use the eyes of any of the yao to see everything in the
surroundings.

At the same time, the information of the nine yao flowed through his mind.
His mind moved, and a yao suddenly stepped three paces forward, leaving the troop. He instantly
controlled it to do many strange and awkward poses.
So interesting! Very interesting!
Zuo Mo was in shock.
Translator Ramblings: What to do when you are bored? Play games. This is a road trip to a place
they dont know.
Pu Yao is very good at hiding since he found a spot inside Zuo Mos sea of consciousness. He
managed to evade Xin Yan and the others, then the people at the Sword Test Conference, and
now the yao. At this point, its pretty obvious that he doesnt like the yao that much. At the same
time, as a commentator pointed out, he doesnt respect Zuo Mo as an equal considering how he
just takes Zuo Mos resources and uses them without permission. From our perspective as
readers, we frequently side with Zuo Mo since we have the most knowledge about his state of
mind, and there is a tendency to desire the main character to improve and win all the time.
However, in a world where power is might, Zuo Mo is not at a strength that Pu Yao can respect
even if he is greatly weakened now. From Pu Yaos perspective, Zuo Mos primary skills in the
consciousness and body cultivation is due to him giving/selling the knowledge to Zuo Mo. Zuo
Mo is akin to a leech that Pu Yao needs at this point to survive but Zuo Mo is still so weak that
Pu Yao dismisses him. His mindset has not completely adjusted to his present situation, and he is
refusing to admit some truths. The change in Pu Yaos mindset will be an interesting one.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Six What Was That?
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and Brian.
Chapter Two Hundred and Six What Was That?
Zuo Mo was very depressed.
In the first two matches, he had won. The third round was tied. They also tied for the fourth and
fifth. After the fifth round, he never won again.
In total, they had battled for ten matches. Five losses, three ties, and two wins, that wasnt a good
result. The more they played, the greater the gap between them became. He was very surprised.
Gongsun Shidi who looked shy and weak was very aggressive. In the last few matches, not soon
after the match had started, Zuo Mo was killed off.

Zuo Mo lost so badly that even Pu Yao couldnt keep looking.


Ill go!
Pu Yao jumped out, took over control, and started to fight against Gongsun Cha.
Gongsun Cha was instantly obliterated. The strong ability to command that Pu Yao displayed
made Zuo Mo intoxicated. Pu Yao, who seemed quite feminine, was extremely aggressive when
he was in command.
You guys can slowly torture yourselves! Ge will play on ges own.
Zuo Mo muttered inside. This person and this yao were natural born militants. In other words,
they were born for the role! Especially when he saw the expressions of the person and the yao,
he shuddered. The light flashed in Pu Yaos bloody pupil, a cruel smirk on the corner of his
mouth, his actions light lightning. Gongsun Shidi, after being depressively killed for twenty
something matches, his expression wasnt the least bit dejected. His face was like a plum
blossom, slightly flushed, the light in his eyes continuously flickering, he was more excited the
more he fought!
These two perverts!
Zuo Mo had long known of Pu Yaos perverseness. He hadnt thought Gongsun Shidi would also
be so perverse when he played War Chess!
Did everyones heart have a perverse chord?
Shaking his head, Zuo Mo smacked his lips. All the War Chess games that Pu Yao gave were for
commanders, and were all yaomo. Xiuzhe, if they were not the enemy, they were cannon fodder.
That made him very unaccustomed to it.
Okay, who made it so that they were War Chess games for yaomo.
Zuo Mo completely threw the last thought behind his head. He decided to continue his own
cultivation.
Speaking of cultivation, he was studying formations.
He had seen many kinds of formations already. The soul-tethered talisman that was so rare,
jingshi talismans, he had all that. Adding on the aid of his consciousness, his comprehension of
formations was much deeper than normal xiuzhe.

He had many skills, he cultivated ling power, spiritual power, and also body cultivation on the
side. He also knew many spells. Such variety was not a good quality. In reality, all of these were
not his true cultivation path.
His primary cultivation was formations. The direction of this originated in Pu Yaos statement,
The core of all spells is formations. From the uncertainty in the beginning, to the gradual
understanding, to the rock-hard determination of present, Zuo Mo had never stopped studying.
Even though he was far from the level Pu Yao had spoken of, he was full of confidence in
himself.
For example, the micro formations in dan-making were the products of his continuous
investigations. He didnt know if anyone else studied them, but the micro formations had brought
enormous profit for him. Without the micro formations, there was no Golden Crow Fire.
There were many paths to increasing ones strength, but not every path was suited for him.
Since people were skilled at commanding, then this matter will be given to those skilled in that.
It was the wisest choice for him to do what he was most skilled in.
He put his attention back on the date seed ship. In his view, there was a lot of room for
modifications, especially to Zuo Mo who was skilled in micro formations.
As it was related to his life, he had to think hard.
In the cabin, three people all had different expressions. Chun Yu Cheng propped his head on his
hand, his eyes lost. He had maintained this position for a long time, occasionally muttering.
Gongsun Cha was extremely energetic, his eyes focused on War Chess, completely ignorant of
the piece of black daze crystal that was floating in the air with no one else present.
Zuo Mo climbed up and down, his body covered in wood shavings, all kinds of tools and
talismans occasionally on his hands.
Lil Pagoda skipped behind him, not letting go of one piece go to waste, all sucked into the
tower.
Not far away, Silly Bird looked in disdain at Lil Pagoda. Lil Black silently waved its antennae
as it climbed around.
A long time later, when the formation in front of him had finished, Zuo Mo finally released a
breath and stretched.
Without any requirements, without any limitations, as long as he could think of it and he had
enough materials, he would try it. This kind of experimentation that he had never had before

made him feel unspeakably comfortable. He had done everything he could think of to modify the
date seed ship.
Some were forging methods, some were dan-making methods, some were formation setting
methods, including the formation disks that he hadnt used for a time, they were all put to use on
the date seed ship.
The date seed ship was completely transformed.
The shuttle-shaped date seed ship became even sharper, especially the bow where seven blue
spikes were arranged in a row. These seven blue spikes had been obtained from the fourth-grade
Blue Spiked Crocodile that Zuo Mo had killed on the Desolate Wood Reef. The blue jade like
spike was covered in cinnabar seals all over.
The body of the ship was thinner and longer than before, like a swordfish. It made the ship look
more dangerous and intrusive. The direct result was that its speed in the water suddenly
increased. In two hours, it could travel one hundred and fifty li, having increased by fifty percent.
Zuo Mo added a control formation to the ling shield outside. It was almost attached to the body
of the ship now, like a skin rather than the round bubble it had been before. The lightning net
seemed to be engraved on the ling shield now rather than on its exterior.
It was possible to see a thread of lightning occasionally swim by silently on the ling shield.
Zuo Mo had cut off anything like the masts. Those things were more for decoration than
practicality.
But even so, Zuo Mo was still not satisfied. He studied the water movement formation that the
date seed ship had now, and found that this water movement formation was the reason the date
seed ship was so slow in the water. Compared to flying in the air, the speed of travel in the water
made him feel it was as slow as a turtle.
For example, the Thunder Flowing Light Wings that he had bought from Hong Yang could reach
one thousand and five hundred li in two hours at full speed. Even the third-grade lucky cloud that
did not pursue speed but was famed for its elegance could easily surpass a speed of three
hundred li every two hours.
Having never possessed a water movement talisman before, Zuo Mo naturally could not be
satisfied with the speed of the date seed ship. A fourth-grade date seed ship that couldnt even
catch up to a third-grade lucky cloud, wasnt that a joke?
He completely forgot the resistance in the water was much stronger than flying in the air.

When he realized this problem, it was when he had increased the speed of the date seed ship to
two hundred li every two hours, because he discovered that, no matter how he altered the water
movement formation, he could not increase the speed of the date seed ship.
He sudden recalled a move that he had practiced before in the [Li Water Sword Scripture]
[Flowing Water]!
Other than being traceless and hard to discover, [Flowing Water] also was fast! It wasnt an
extremely fast, but a comfortable, and smooth, natural flow! He had practiced [Li Water Sword
Scripture] in the water before. In the water, [Flowing Water] was much faster! The crux of
[Flowing Water] was to change with the water flow, like water flowing from high up down.
If he could turn the date seed ship into the Water Drop sword, that would be good
This daring idea suddenly flashed through his head. This idea made him excited. After thinking
for a long time, he finally found a solution.
He had just finished it now!
He used several hundred little formations to successfully model a situation similar to [Flowing
Water]. The speed of the date seed ship was increased to four hundred li every two hours!
Zuo Mo did not know the market. If he knew the fourth-grade water movement talismans on the
market were all around one hundred li every two hours, that even the upper fourth-grade
talismans were about two hundred li every two hours, he certainly wouldnt have been stubborn
to increase the speed of the date seed ship.
Such terrifying speed was not without its limits. Due to the high number of formations, it was
extremely difficult to control. Zuo Mo found it very hard to control himself, and had to let Lil
Pagoda take control of the formations. These formations mostly were related to water, and Lil
Pagoda was the best hand at controlling the five elements.
The other point was the consumption of jingshi had multiplied, especially when they were
travelling at full speed. It would use ten jing of ling power every two hours, which was ten pieces
of third-grade jingshi, ten times that of the Thunder Flowing Light Wings.
But in Zuo Mos perspective, this was worth it. If he couldnt keep his little life, then no matter
how much jingshi he had it was useless.
The present date seed ship finally reached the level of life-saving in his heart.
But before he could rest, suddenly, a feeling of danger came into Zuo Mos mind.
Zuo Mos heart beat heavily.

He couldnt help but look outside. In the black water, a dot of light suddenly lit up far away.
This dot of light was extremely small like a hair, but in a blink, it was the size of a sesame seed.
Such fast speed!
Zuo Mo inhaled sharply.
He suddenly remembered the Endless ocean that countless people talked about, which had no
border was the playground of strong ling beasts!
Run!
Connected to his mind, Lil Pagoda instantly light up, the jingshi of the twenty eight stars in the
ceiling of the cabin lit up, the cabin so bright it seemed like day.
Vroom vroom vroom! The ship slightly trembled. Under its maximum speed, the pressure that
the ship was under was very terrifying.
The sudden change alarmed the other two.
Chun Yu Cheng raised his head in confusion, the excited lush on Gongsun Chas face had not
retreated. Gongsun Cha reacted first, the lightning speed of the date seed ship frightening him.
So fast! When did the ship become this fast? He wasnt nervous, his face curious as he walked
next to Zuo Mo.
It isnt the time to discuss this, Zuo Mo said in a deep voice. Something has locked onto us.
What? Gongsun Chas face was curious. However, when his gaze turned to the outside, his
face suddenly changed.
Not far away from the ship, a pair of vicious eyes about the size of a lantern stared at the date
seed ship.
When the two people looked at its body, the two couldnt help but inhale.
An enormous shadow appeared in their vision. Black water that flowed relentlessly was like a
mountain that was clearly separate from the surrounding river. The pair of indifferent and vicious
eyes were as bright as moons in the black water.
The three felt as though they had fell into a glacier, their entire body cold!

Translator Ramblings: Zuo Mo goes overboard and the sea monsters show up. Gongsun Cha is a
little bit obsessed.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Seven Moon Eye Blackwater Beast
This chapter has been brought to you by me, and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter Two hundred and Seven Moon Eye Blackwater Beast
What is that? Gongsun Cha asked woodenly
Dont know, Zuo Mos answer was similarly wooden.
The pitiable Chun Yu Cheng just fainted.
This is a Moon Eye Black Water Beast, Pu Yao drawled. Having just sadistically killed
Gongsun Cha for more than twenty rounds, he was in a pleasurable state, his attitude
exceptionally harmonious.
Moon Eye Blackwater Beast?
They mostly live in the bottom of the Endless Ocean. They have large bodies, but they are all
looks and no substance. They dont have anything good on their bodies. The only things are the
moon beads and the Blackwater. Pu Yao only glanced once, before becoming scornful.
Moon bead! Blackwater! Zuo Mos heart leaped. He had never heard of the Moon Eye
Blackwater Beast before, but he wasnt unfamiliar with the Moon Bead and Blackwater. The
uses of Blackwater were very broad, it was not cheap, and moon beads were not just expensive,
there were very few of them on the market, and were some of the best materials for forging.
However, he didnt dare to have any greed now. The presence that this Moon Eye Blackwater
Beast had was too intimidating.
What grade is this guy? Any weaknesses? He asked.
Fourth-grade. As to weaknesses, I dont know. Pu Yao added, Im not familiar.
The speed of the date seed ship was at maximum, yet that Moon Eye Blackwater Beast was
easily keeping up.

As expected of a natural water element beast. His date seed ship was not a match for this kind of
water movement speed. He stopped the ship. In any case, he couldnt escape from the beast
What reassured his heart was this Moon Eye Black Water Beast was a fourth-grade ling beast.
What gave him a headache was that they were in the water.
Zuo Mo might have defeated a Blue Spiked Crocodile, but that was on land and not in the water.
If they had been in the water, Zuo Mo wouldnt have even been able to escape. Water element
ling beasts could use all of their offensive power in the water.
One ship and one beast faced off.
Zuo Mo and the others didnt dare to move rashly. The Moon Eye Blackwater Beast seemed
curious about this object that it had never seen before.
Inside the ship, Zuo Mo cast a spell on Gongsun Cha. Youre in command of them. After
playing War Chess, Zuo Mo realized Gongsun Shidis talent in this area. Since he really couldnt
make anything of them, it was better to give them to Shidi.

Gongsun Cha stilled, but he instantly took over the command of the three Golden Armor Guards.
In his consciousness, when the three Golden Armor Guards appeared, a shocked expression
uncontrollably floated onto his face.
He had always assumed that the Golden Armor Guards were living people. Now he discovered
that these three mysterious experts were puppets!
He quickly managed to calm down. Gradually, his breathing started to speed up.
He felt his body was uncontrollably shaking. It was not fear nor terror, but excitement!
This was his first fight where he was in command. Even though his subordinates were three
golems, when he thought of the upcoming battle, he felt his body temperature rising, even his
blood was burning.
He suddenly closed his eyes, his rushed breathing slowly calming.
When he opened his eyes again, he looked much calmer, but the light in the deepest part of his
eyes was like a blades edge.

Zuo Mo also threw away all other thoughts. Other than engaging in a fight, there didnt seem to
be other options. The other side was a fourth-grade ling beast in the water, but on his side were
four ningmai. Zuo Mo felt there was a chance!
What he was worried about was they would create too much noise, and attract other ling beasts.
That would not be good.
Just as Zuo Mo pondered when to attack, Gongsun Cha suddenly ran to Chun Yu Cheng who had
fainted, and furiously shook him awake. Shixiong, Shixiong, wheres your ling butterfly?
Ling butterfly ling butterfly Chun Yu Chengs face was confused. After a while, he
managed to react, and hurriedly took out the beast service card. Ling butterfly! Ling butterfly!
Gongsun Cha looked helplessly at the confusion and panic on Chun Yu Chengs face and could
only softly comfort him, Shixiong, dont panic, just summon your ling butterfly.
Oh. It might have been that Gongsun Chas comfort was effective, Chun Yu Cheng calmed
down slightly and summoned the ling butterfly.
The blue ling butterfly appeared in front of him, nimbly fluttering its wings. Zuo Mo was slightly
surprised. Every time the blue butterfly flapped its wings, he could feel a rich stream of water
element power. It seemed that the deep of the Endless Ocean was the place the water element
blue butterfly could be most effective.
But Zuo Mo did not understand. Why did Gongsun Cha get Chun Yu Cheng to summon a blue
butterfly? The blue butterfly was only a third-grade ling butterfly, definitely not a match for the
big guy outside. Also, while the deep of the Endless Ocean had rich water element power, it
really was not a habitat for butterflies.
Shixiong, I remember your ling butterfly has two water element spells. Which two? Gongsun
Cha asked rapidly.
[Water Movement] and [Water Power]. Chun Yu Cheng reflexively responded.
Zuo Mos eyes suddenly lit up. He understood what Gongsun Shidi wanted to do.
Gongsun Cha did not waste time, pointing at the three Golden Armor Guards and saying,
Shixiong, get the ling butterfly to use the spells on these three.

Oh. Chun Yu Cheng hurriedly commanded the blue butterfly. The blue butterfly lightly moved
its wings, and two water-blue spells hit one of the Golden Armor Guards. After continuously
casting eight spells on the three Golden Armor Guards plus Zuo Mo, the blue butterfly appeared
tired. The wings were moving slower than they had been before.
When the two spells hit Zuo Mo, he felt his ling power become lively. The changes in the water
flow outside side the ship became much more clear, even though he didnt know what the effect
would be!
It was the correct decision to give Gongsun Shidi control of the Golden Armor Guards. If it was
him, he wouldnt have thought of Chun Shidis ling butterfly.
With these two spells, the gap between the two sides had become a little bit smaller.
Zuo Mo and Gongsun Cha looked at each other, and instantly understood what they wanted.
Attack first!

Three blue lights suddenly charged at the Moon Eye Blackwater Beast!
Once they attacked, Zuo Mo had no thoughts about luck. The three blue spikes moved first.
Fourth-grade blue spikes, after being forged in Golden Crow Fire, the body of the spikes were
filled with characters. It was the strongest killing move of the date seed ship, but compared to the
enormous body of the Moon Eye Blackwater Beast, the three blue spikes were not even
toothpicks.
The Moon Eye Blackwater Beast did not show any signs of dodging. The three blue spikes
disappeared into the black and roiling black water.
Boom!
The Blackwater which had been slowly flowing suddenly rippled ferociously like boiling water
The lantern-sized eyes brightened. Hiss, the three people on the ship felt an ear-piercing sound.
Zuo Mos attack had wounded it.

The Moon Eye Blackwater beast was enraged. Everyone felt the landscape darken. A wave of
Blackwater gathered towards the date seed ship from all directions, tying it up tightly. The
strength of the black water was extremely high. The ship started to creak as the Blackwater
pressed against it!
The Blackwater tightly covered the ling shield like a wall.
Three golden figures with a long red tail heavily struck the water wall outside.
Ding ding ding!
Three muffled sounds that were like lightning. The three Golden Armor Guards were forcibly
bounced back. The seemingly soft-looking black water was as hard as steel. The full power
blows of the three Golden Armor Guards were not able to move the Moon Eye Blackwater Beast.
Zuo Mo was shocked.
He was very clear about how powerful the three Golden Armor Guards were. Each Golden
Armored Guards strength was above his. The attack of the three of them at full power was not
able to harm the Moon Eye Blackwater Beast one bit!
If it was said the three blue spikes made Zuo Mo joyful, then his heart stilled with this attack. So
the restless Blackwater around the Moon Eye Blackwater Beast was its strongest weapon!
Blackwater was one of the most famous heavywaters in the world. With such a large amount of
Blackwater it didnt need any other spells. It only needed to control them, and the power would
be terrifying.
Controlling Blackwater! This was the area that the Moon Eye Blackwater Beast was truly strong
in.
Gongsun Cha also had a shocked expression. The three Golden Armor Guards suddenly stopped
and suddenly leapt outside again.
Zuo Mo also managed to react. Throwing all thoughts to the back of his head, the five essence
sword set he had already prepared was waiting to attack. Suddenly seeing the actions of the three
Golden Armor Guards, his own movements slowed.
The three Golden Armor Guards rushed outside. In the middle, the gloves on their hands lit up.
Ten Thousand Appearance Gloves!
The three golden figures were like three meteors, striking three times!

Bam bam bam!


The three blows were all at the same spot!
Boom!
Zuo Mos consciousness clearly watched the water wall that the three Golden Armor Guards
attacked only slightly rippled, but behind the water shield, the Blackwater body of Moon Eye
Blackwater Beast suddenly shook, a portion of the Blackwater almost flowing out of its body.
Gongsun Chas attack was too beautiful!
Zuo Mo suppressed the impulse to roar, and took the opportunity to attack. He didnt use the five
essence sword set on his hands, but went with the flow and activated the lightning net outside the
ling shield of the date seed ship.
If this was earlier, lightning of this degree was nothing to the Moon Eye Blackwater Beast.
But the clever attacks of the three Golden Armor Guards caused the Moon Eye Blackwater Beast
to lose control of the Blackwater for a very short instant. The relatively weak lightning moved in
at this time.
Hiss hiss hiss!
Countless little bits of lightning flooded the Blackwater.
The Moon Eye Blackwater Beast was in a slight panic. The Blackwater that had been wrapped
around the date seed ship furiously pressed inwards. Under the heavy pressure, half of the fine
lightning was quickly destroyed.
However, the state of the two sides switched!
The devious Zuo Mo attacked it again, and three blue spikes soundlessly entered the Blackwater.
Argh!
The Moon Eye Blackwater Beast gave a strange howl!
Zuo Mos eyes blurred, everything shaking! Turning his head over, blood flowed out of Gongsun
Chas nose and mouth, his face ferocious. The killing intent was so intense in his eyes that Zuo
Mos heart shook
A red sword energy passed through the black water, aiming straight at the two lantern-sized eyes
of the Moon Eye Blackwater Beast.

At the same time, another Golden Armor Guard paced several steps and moved up.
Bam!
The Blackwater wall shrunk back, blocking the red sword energy.
Pew!
The Blackwater that hurried back was slightly weaker than usual, unable to block such a sharp
sword energy.
Another water wall!
The sword energy which had not expended its power hit the surface, causing ripples and was
blocked!
Before the Moon Eye Blackwater Beast could release a breath, the Golden Armored Guard that
had moved up smashed heavily into the wall.
An expression of scorn appeared in the vicious eyes of the Moon Eye Blackwater Beast. Smash?
They couldnt smash through the water wall!
Just as the Golden Armored Guard was going to hit the wall, suddenly, seven silver sword
energies lit up by his side, the silver light flowing. Seven silver sword energies forcefully crashed
on the water wall!
The Seven Star Sword Formation of the Seven Star Sword Boots!
The rippling water wall instantly collapsed, the seven silver sword energies pointing straight at
the eyes of the Moon Eye Blackwater Beast.
For the first time, the Moon Eye Blackwater Beast had an expression of fear. At this time, it
could do nothing except push all the Blackwater in front of it.
It needed to stop the seven silver sword energies!
It was so panicked that it did not notice that, at some unknown time, a golden figure had sneaked
behind it.
Face covered in blood, Gongsun Cha seemed insane, the corners of his mouth coldly rising, his
eyes black as they were reflected in the Blackwater, a dash of red flashing past!
Translator Ramblings: Gongsun Chas first time in command. There isnt a very concrete
description of this animal so I always end up picturing it as a whale.

Zuo Mo easily gave up command and this chapter really shows how Zuo Mo is someone who
can easily admit that he isnt good at everything and people are more talented than he is. He is
very practical and he has good judgement about other people.
Pu Yao is perverse because he enjoys inflicting pain on Zuo Mo and behaves contrary to what
Zuo Mo expects. Gongsun Cha is perverse because normal people rarely are happy after being
dealt devastating losses twenty times in a row, and would not be excited for more. Zuo Mos
desire for jingshi is not perverse because he values things like his life over jingshi. Also, he has
not done anything malicious or wrong to make jingshi.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Eight Blood Void Movement
This chapter has been brought to you by me, and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter Two Hundred and Eight Blood Void Movement
Zuo Mo looked at the soft and shy Gongsun Shidi who was half-collapsed on the deck, face pale,
and found it hard to think of him as the battle crazed guy just now.
As he took out medicine for Gongsun Cha, he thought, This guy is really an extreme militant!
Even now, he felt it was slightly unreal. The entire battle was clean and crisp, without any big
tribulations, it was done.
Zuo Mo didnt even get to use his five essence sword set and the Moon Eye Blackwater Beast
was killed!
He had felt the effectiveness of the Golden Armor Guards would not be as great with him as they
were on Gongsun Shidis hands.
But the difference was a bit too big
On land, one Golden Armor Guard was enough to deal with a Moon Eye Blackwater Beast, but
in the water, for three Golden Armor Guards to kill a Moon Eye Blackwater Beast, that needed
luck. He hadnt thought that Gongsun Shidi was so strong!
Pity about the pair of Moon beads!
Zuo Mos heart hurt. The last ambush by the Golden Armor Guard had sliced the eyes of the
Moon Eye Blackwater Beasts in half. What landed in his hands were four half-sphere moon
beads. Their value had greatly decreased. He had taken a lot of Blackwater. The Blackwater was
not as valuable as moon beads, but it was still a rarity.

Even more, it was worth it just to discover Gongsun Shidis terrifying talent at battle!
In troubled times, what was most important was strength. As Gongsun Shidis talents were
continuously uncovered, their strength was increasing. Zuo Mo was already considering if it was
possible for Pu Yao to make a few more Golden Armor Guards.
However, Gongsun Shidis strength was a bit lacking. The shout from the Moon Eye Blackwater
Beast had almost taken his little life. In Zuo Mos view, the direction that Gongsun Shidi should
develop in was as a battle general, being skilled at commanding in battle, and not pursuing
individual power.
But his individual power was too weak, even weaker than Chun Yu Cheng. If he was the least bit
careless, he could lose his life. Having seen the yao army, Zuo Mo naturally realized that people
like Gongsun Shidi were actually very strong. These days, hiring a sword xiu of some strength
wasnt hard, that just needed jingshi. But hiring a xiuzhe who would command, that was not
simple. Even more, Gongsun Shidi was the closest of all, they had gone through tribulations
together and was very reliable.
How could he get Gongsun Shidi to command in battle but not lose his little life?
Talisman? Even the best talisman would be scrap metal in Gongsun Shidis hands. He basically
could not use them to their full potential.
Practice some life-saving spell? At this time, would it be too late? Gongsun Shidi might have
talent at commanding, but his talent at cultivation seemed very average.
Zuo Mo ran into trouble.
Suddenly he hit his head. How could he forget Pu Yao? This thousand year old antique should
know at least something.
You want to turn him into a battle general? Pu Yaos eyes as he looked at Zuo Mo were slightly
shocked. Such a perceptive matter, was it something that this greedy zombie face could think of?
Didnt this guy only ever pursue money?
I feel he has great talent in the area. Zuo Mo asked in response, Dont you think so?
His talent is barely acceptable. Pu Yao did not refute it. But what do you want a battle general
for? Do you want to start conquering land?
Zuo Mo looked at Pu Yao like he was looking at an idiot. Did he get his head knocked? Just these
few people, they couldnt even get protection money, let alone conquering land! However,
thinking that he had something to ask of the other, Zuo Mo decided it was better not to say such
hurtful words. He said, One good man, three person sect. Gang fighting has more technique

involved than fighting by oneself. Anyways, I feel that this road has a brighter future for him
than a butcher.
For some unknown reason, Pu Yao released a breath. See, he said so. This brat couldnt have
such far-seeing eyes.

This is so good, why does it have to be hidden? Zuo Mo was not very happy.
You bumpkin! Pu Yao scornfully twisted his mouth. Each time he scolded like this, he felt
great. Also, he found that as long as Zuo Mo had something to request of him, Zuo Mo wouldnt
be angry if he swore at him.
He saw the displeasure in Zuo Mos eyes become even heavier, but the other forcefully
suppressed it. Pu Yao was very smug.
Oh, this feeling isnt bad.
Let me first teach you a lesson. With xiuzhe, those that are purely commanders are battle
generals. Yaomo do not have pure things. Pu yaos voice was full of scorn. For yaomo, they
have to fight as soon as they are born. Commanding in battle is a technique any high level yaomo
must learn. Of course, not every yaomo can become a strong commander, but the rate of their
occurrence is much higher than your battle generals.
Do you know what is most important for a commander? Pu Yao asked.
I dont know, Zuo Mo shook his head in confusion. He had never heard before what Pu Yao
was saying now.
Giving commands! Pu Yao gave a very normal answer.
Oh, Zuo Mo seemed to have understood slightly.
On the battlefield, the situation would change constantly, and is very complex. How can the
people in command let their orders reach their subordinates? As he kept on going, Pu Yao
became serious. Xiuzhe use seals, they first forge seals beforehand to give them to the xiuzhe
they command, and pass orders through the seals. Mo use the mo matrix. They can mutually feel
each other through the mo matrix. As to yao, I shouldnt have to say anything.

Consciousness?
Yes. Pu Yao nodded. What yao primarily cultivate is the consciousness, and are born naturally
powerful in this area. You should first consider this problem.
As to protecting his life, Pu Yao tilted his head to think, battle generals usually would have
the protection of experts, and they would hide in the troops so they cannot easily be discovered.
Zuo Mo had an impulse to spit blood.
After speaking for so long, it was basically equivalent to saying nothing. Having the protection
of experts, where could he get experts to protect? There was only these few people, where would
he hide?
We are on one ship now. Zuo Mos eyes were not friendly as he smirked, Hm, I wonder if Sky
Yao are nutritious and suited to a ling beasts appetite.
Pu Yao naturally would not be scared by this degree of threat, and laughed loudly in response.
Seeing that Zuo Mo showed signs of rage, Pu Yao finally stopped his carefree laugh.
If you are talking about saving his life, its not that there are not ways. Pu Yao snickered, Like
the mo matrix. Look at how convenient it is. Carving it on once, benefits for a lifetime. He
doesnt need to cultivate at all. The mo matrix would automatically temper his body. In the
future, he would be a juggernaut, a juggernaut that cannot be killed!
Zuo Mo smirked. Boast! Continue boasting! Ge got tricked by you last time, got this mo matrix
carved, how come ge didnt become a juggernaut!
Its not possible to become a juggernaut in one day. Pu Yao smiled. Or a yao seed. Cultivating
the consciousness, thats the best pairing for a battle general.
The consciousness isnt bad, but it isnt useful in protecting his life. Also, if he starts practicing,
it would take a long time. Zuo Mo shook his head. Also, in the future, he might not be in
command of a yao army. Didnt you also say that xiuzhe used seals?
You see, you refused the two areas Im most skilled in. Pu Yao waved his hand, his expression
similar to saying see, its not that Im not helping you.
Ye just knew that you werent reliable! Zuo Mo hatefully said. Humph, fine! He cant become
a battle general, no one can play War Chess with you!
Pu Yao froze.

Zuo Mo was secretly overjoyed. As expected, he hadnt guessed wrong! Seeing Pu Yao
sadistically kill Gongsun Cha for twenty something rounds, Zuo Mo was very shocked. He had
never seen Pu Yao be interested in a matter like he was in this. Pu Yao had taken out a huge
variety of War Chess games. Zuo Mo had knew then that this guy had definitely been obsessed
with this path. Especially when he saw Pu Yaos smug expression after he had sadistically killed
Gongsun Cha twenty something rounds. He knew that this guy had found a new amusement, so
he tried this approach.
Pu Yao was depressed. It wasnt that he was unclear as to Zuo Mos little calculations, but just as
Zuo Mo expected, it had been long and difficult before he had found someone who could play
with him. If he lost a person to play with due to this, it was a loss.
To a Sky Yao that had no goal or ambition, amusement was very important.
He said slightly helplessly, Oh, I remember, there is a very obscure life-saving method.
What? Zuo Mo hurriedly asked.
[Blood Void Movement]!
What spell is that?
Its not a spell, its a talisman!
Oh
Multiple hours later, Zuo Mo looked at the three necklaces in front of him with a satisfied
expression. There were two jade tablets on each necklace, each tablet carved with complex and
old characters. Zuo Mos craftsmanship was much better now, and the characters he carved were
more smooth and fine.
Deviously laughing, he ran next to Gongsun Cha whose face was pale.
Shixiong, what is it? Gongsun Cha became wary. Shixiongs expression was troubling.
Nothing big. Zuo Mo nickered. He pulled Gongsun Chas hand, rubbed it a few times. Okay!
Gongsun Cha stilled. He suddenly saw that his little hand was dripping blood. Below his fingers,
there was a jade bottle that was already half filled with blood.
Gongsun Chas pale face suddenly became white as paper, his eyes rolling as he fainted.

Chun Yu Cheng propped up his chin, looking in the distance, his gaze wandering as he muttered
to himself. This formation should belong to the wind element power. Does wind element power
affect the reproduction rate of ling butterflies
He was completely ignorant that someone was beside him, and did not detect that the other hand
which he had on his leg was dripping blood.
After half a bottle, he still had not detected it.

An hour later.
Hm, when did my hand get wounded? Oh, where did I think up to
Zuo Mo took out three bottles of blood, one of them his own. He had split the blood of the two
bottles in half, each portion put into one of the jade tablets.
On the warm jade tablet, the bright red characters were exceptionally grand. No one would think
of blood. It did not look any different than normal cinnabar.
The three necklaces with the jade tablets were the weapon to save lives Blood Void Movement!
Three people, one person a piece.
When any one of them experienced a life-saving threat, they would automatically move beside
their fellow, as long as their fellow was also wearing the Blood Void Movement necklace as well.
He had originally planned on finding a life-saving method for Gongsun Cha who had the lowest
cultivation, but hadnt thought that he would get such a big benefit out of it. Zuo Mo mixed the
three peoples Blood Void Movement together. This way, no matter which one of the three of
them encountered danger, they would move to one of the other two.
Having put handled a large worry, Zuo Mos mood was great and he woke Gongsun Cha up.
Come, lets play the War Chess!
The confused Gongsun Cha did not know that he had been sold by Shixiong to a Pu Yao who was
sharpening his blades.

Translator Ramblings: More knowledge about large-scale warfare. No one in the ship is normal.
Lil Black might be the most normal entity on there.
Zuo Mo finally found some of Pu Yaos weaknesses. He is bored and lonely.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Nine Ma Fan
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and Brian.
Chapter Two Hundred and Nine Ma Fan
Where are we? Chun Yu Cheng curiously poked his head out of the ship. After travelling for
more than three months underwater, the three felt very suffocated.
Little Mountain Jie, Zuo Mo said uncertainly. None of them had ever been to Little Mountain
Jie and had never paid any attention to information about Little Mountain Jie.
The fresh air made the trios chests instantly become refreshed and expand. They all poked their
heads out of the cabin to greedily suck in the air.
On both sides of the river were endless series of mountain peaks.
But quickly, the three completely shut up. They looked dazedly at the mountain peaks at the two
sides.
Smashed rocks and broken trees laid everywhere. Occasionally, there were corpses and pieces of
clothing. The mountains which had originally been green were now barren.
It cant be this bad Chun Yu Chengs voice drifted out as if it was sleep-talking.
Gongsun Cha was the first to respond. His face was not very good, lowering his head and saying
to himself, War has begun.
Zuo Mo only looked, not knowing what to say. This area must have experienced fierce fighting.
Thinking about the yao troops above the Desolate Wood Reef, Zuo Mo didnt need to guess to
know who had accomplished such destruction. His heart couldnt help but feel fear. If he hadnt
escaped in time, this would have also been his outcome.

Lets be careful. The road probably wont be safe.


Zuo Mo and Gongsun Cha exchanged a look, and saw the worry in each others eyes.
The date seed ship flew into the sky and floated in mid-air.
Where should we go? Gongsun Cha asked a very realistic question.
We can only take one step and look one step. Zuo Mos face was expressionless, but his voice
was full of helplessness, We arent familiar with Little Mountain Jie, so lets first find someone
to ask where the other jie rivers of Little Mountain Jie are.
Are there even still people in Little Mountain Jie?
Gongsun Chas words made Zuo Mos breathing uncontrollably stop. He turned around, and saw
a matter-of-fact expression on Gongsun Chas soft face. For some reason, a cold chill seeped into
his heart.
His first response was, he definitely could not bully Gongsun Shidi in the future.
This guy was definitely vicious and devious.
But Zuo Mo clearly wasnt a nice person either. Then our days are at an end. Just wait for others
to come back to clean us up.
Gongsun Cha giggled, and didnt speak. Holding up his chin, he was thinking of something.
Luckily, Gongsun Chas words were not proven right. On the third day, they encountered living
xiuzhe. But when they saw the messy battlefield, Zuo Mo could only say, Lets wait. The date
seed ship shrunk back into the clouds, and secretly gazed at the fighting below.
The two groups of xiuzhe were fighting, talismans and flying swords all over the air.
Most of the people had a cultivation of ningmai, only a rare few in zhuji. Chun Yu Cheng only
looked for a little while before turning to think about his husbandry. He wasnt interested in
fighting and killing. Zuo Mo and Gongsun Cha were so bored they were yawning.
Why dont we do another round of War Chess. Gongsun Cha asked.
Zuo Mo swept him with a look and shook his head. No, business first.
Gongsun Cha had become their strongest offensive force now.

In the three months, this militant had improved with astounding speed, becoming more vicious
and experienced in the art of commanding. The number of ling beasts that had been ruined could
not be counted. In his hands, the three Golden Armored Guards could be called specters of war.
Of course, Zuo Mos wallet had also become fuller.
Having seen the strong yao army, having seen the strong ling beasts under the water like the
Moon Eye Blackwater Beast, especially after seeing the grand performances of the three golden
armor guards under Gongsun Shidis command, the fight in front of them could not stir their
interest.
Thinking it over Zuo Mo still decided to not wait, Go get them to stop.
Alright, Gongsun Cha clearly didnt have any interest in opponents of this level. The two
seemed to have completely forgot one of them was ningmai and the other zhuji while the two
groups down there were mostly ningmai.
The three golden armor guards that had been holding their swords moved, and disappeared from
Gongsun Chas side.

Ma Fan carefully maintained his distance from the others. Fifty zhang to one hundred zhang was
his best attack range. In this range of distance, his sword scripture could reach its maximum
power.
Compared to the great majority, his luck was pretty good, and he had found the remains of a
sword scripture. This sword scripture did not have a name, and the contents were nearly all lost;
but the remains were enough for him to survive until now.
It really was troublesome!
He carefully controlled his rhythm, occasionally glancing out of the corner of his eye at his
fellows. Luckily, this groups situation wasnt bad. His heart relaxed slightly. Before this, he had
always been alone. When he had encountered the yao army passing by, seeing that battle that had
no meaning, he understood that it was not possible for one person to survive in these troubled
times.
He had joined this little group. but how many times had he fought after joining this group? He
didnt quite remember. After the yao army left, Little Mountain Jies society had collapsed, and
turned to chaos.

Out of nowhere, he saw three golden lights out of the corner of his eye!
There was an ambush! His heart shocked, he didnt hesitate in turning and running. His feet
moved continuously, and his entire person was covered in a pile of fake and real illusions.
The illusory movement method that he relied on to save his life!
The opponent sixty zhang away from him had suddenly lost his opponent, his face full of shock,
not understanding the situation.
The three golden lights were like three sharp arrows that pierced straight into the people fighting.
Pia pia pia!
The rapid blows sounded out like rain hitting a banana leaf. The sounds rang in Ma Fans ears as
he ran furiously, his scalp prickled.
It was troublesome now!
He was still quite confident in his speed. The sword scripture that he cultivated might have been
incomplete, but the strongest parts were the illusory movement method and the three sword
moves. The illusory sword method had saved his life a few times already. He rejoiced inside that
he had luckily saved some energy before. Otherwise, he would meet his death today.
Just as he was thinking, the thundering crashes suddenly stopped.
A strong feeling of danger appeared. Uh-oh!
Hiss-crack!
A golden figure appeared in front of him out of thin air, the speed so quick that he didnt even
manage to see the persons features.
Troublesome!
His feet changed direction and ran in another direction!
Hiss-crack!
Another golden figure appeared in front of him.
Trouble
At the same time, a hiss-crack sounded behind him!

I surrender! He raised both of his hands.


However, the other clearly did not pay attention to him. His neck hurt, his vision darkened, and
then he was unconscious.

When he opened his eyes again, he released a breath. He hadnt died. However, when he
completely opened his eyes, his heart went back up again a gold fighter!
He suddenly remembered what had happened before he was unconscious.
This was really troublesome now!
He finally managed to see what the golden people looked like. Their entire body was covered in
golden scale armor. Under the sun, the dense golden scales rippled with golden light. The eyes
under the golden scale armor were cold and murderous. Ma Fen did not doubt that if he dared to
make a wrong move, the golden scale warriors would use that exaggeratedly large flame red
broadsword to slice off his head.
Wait, Heavens!
His eyes blanked for an extremely short moment.
Flames surrounded the exaggerated red broadsword. The golden scaled warriors had thrust the
sword into the ground. The soil around the tip of the sword slowly became black. Fourth-grade!
This was a fourth-grade broadsword!
Ma Fan had worked alone for so long. From this experience, he had developed a great
understanding of the market for these kinds of things. Naturally had his own methods for
judging talismans.
This broadsword was not ordinary. This was not what shocked him . Even if there was the
addition of the golden scaled armor that looked to have high defense power, he wouldnt feel
shocked.
What shocked him was what was on the three
No wonder they could catch up to him. The Thunder Flowing Light Wings, one of the most
famous fourth-grade flying talismans that could be brought on the market. It had appeared

countless times in his dreams. If he had the Thunder Flowing Light Wings, if they were added to
his illusory movement method. Oh, he had the confidence he could escape from any xiuzhe under
jindan!
His eyes flashed across the hands resting on the hilt of the sword. A light blue pair of gloves
embroidered with a little elephant. Ten Thousand Appearances Gloves! The best love of body
xiu. If you had those, you could tear animals apart with your bare hands. His thoughts wandered.
A moment later, he remembered the crashes that had come behind him before he had become
unconscious.
To have been smashed by a guy wearing Ten Thousand Appearances Gloves
He shook and woke up.
But when his eyes flashed across the snake pupil that was so cold and emotionless on the belt
that the golden scaled warriors were wearing, his body uncontrollably tensed again!
Snake Pupil Belt!

His eyes unconsciously landed on the pair of feet closest to him. The slightly delicate boots were
slightly strange being paired with the glittering golden armor. But, when Ma Fans gaze landed
on the little sword on the shoes and the Big Dipper surrounding it, he only had one thought in his
head
It really was troublesome now!
Dont just look. Just sit up.
A very young voice came from behind him. He hurriedly rolled up.
He saw an expressionless face. It really was expressionless. The entire face seemed to be
paralyzed. He had never seen such a strange face before. The thin body, with this wooden face, it
looked like a zombie. However, this zombie was covered in valuable talismans. Ma Fan
instantly woke up. He had heard before that many elders would have all kinds of strange habits
and preferences.
But the young xiuzhe next to the zombie was quite delicate, a slight smile on his face. He
looked very friendly.
What are you called? The zombie opened.
Ma Fan.

As in troublesome?
Having expected the others response, Ma Fan hurriedly explained, Ma as in sesame, fan for
ordinary.
Oh, The zombie slightly paused. Why are you guys fighting?
Zuo Mo pretended to be profound.
Elder, they want to steal our ling grains. Ma Fan didnt dare to conceal.
Ling grains? Zuo Mo was very surprised. He had made his living from farming ling grains for
several years but had never heard people fighting over ling grains.
Yes. Ma Fan perceptively detected the disbelief in Zuo Mos voice and explained, Elder may
not know. After the yao army passed through, for some reason, the ling energy in the jie has
gradually decreased. Not only has cultivation has become difficult to progress, but after a period
of time, our stages may actually go down.
Zuo Mo hurriedly channeled his ling power and found that it was as Ma Fan had said. The
surrounding ling energy was very thin. He had the mo matrix which would automatically take in
ling energy from the surroundings which was why did he had not detected it. Also, Gongsun Cha
was obsessed with War Chess and Chun Yu Cheng with his animals, the Golden Armor Guards
did not need to cultivate, so their procession had not discovered the change in the ling energy.
Zuo Mo suddenly shuddered in shock.
Translator Ramblings: Ma Fan () is very similar to the Chinese term for trouble. Fang Xiang
seemed really fond of this pun in this chapter.
Little Mountain Jie is a small jie and so is Sky Moon. There are intermediate sized jie and large
ones like Bloody Sky Metropolis Jie. Zuo Mo is on a whole new map but he is still in the
beginner stage. Some also call this part of the story one of the best parts not my personal
favorite
I really marvel at how short World of Cultivation really is compared to a lot of the stories going
on at the moment. Some stories might take 1-5 years depending on how fast a person writes. In
terms of sheer productivity, Chinese web-novel writers are pretty crazy, especially those who do
it part-time. There are hundreds of people churning out novels more than hundreds of thousands
of characters every year, but part of it are writing differences. Chinese authors narrate and
describe using more adjectives and idioms than English writers. Something that means shocked
can be a four-character term and all of this adds up. In this story, Im going to get sick of
translating how soft, feminine, shy and bashful Gongsun Chas face is.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Ten Collapse of Order
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and Brian.
Chapter Two Hundred and Ten Collapse of Order
For the longest time, ling grains had always been used to improve the body and as an aid to
increase cultivation speed. Other than that, only those xiuzhe who were heading to Bloody Sky
Metropolis Jie would use them.
Due to this, the price of ling grains was low and very steady in the long term. Otherwise, Zuo Mo
would have already become rich.
But right now, the ling energy density at Little Mountain Jie had become low, and the importance
of ling grains had instantly become evident. Jingshi, lingdan and ling grains were the only items
able to supply ling energy. The ling power contained in jingshi was rich, but the impurities it
contained needed to be purified and could not be used in the long term. Lingdan was made with
all kinds of ling herbs and ling materials, so the cost was too high.
The ling energy in the ling foods were not just easy to absorb but did not harm the body. If used
for a long time, it could even slowly change the body. Ling grains were the most widely used and
basic ingredient in ling foods. Even normal xiuzhe that did not know how to make ling food
could easily consume it.
Many thoughts appeared in Zuo Mos head.
Little Mountain Jies ling energy had become thin after the yao army had passed through.
Without a doubt, it was the fault of the yao army. However, even though he knew this desolation
was caused by the yao army, Zuo Mo had to sigh with amazement at the strength of the yao
army. Little Mountain Jie might be a small jie, but to be able to change the ling energy of a jie,
this power was enough to make him look up with reverence..
Other than admiration, he started to think of the related problems this matter would cause.
Long ago when he had been farming ling grains, due to listening to the sound tablet frequently,
he gradually learned how to follow the threads through the complex and numerous news reports
to find the useful information . He knew he was only a little character. If he was going to survive
in this troubled world, he needed to learn how to avoid dangers.

If the situation worsened, Little Mountain Jie would become a place like Bloody Sky Metropolis
Jie. A place with no ling energy was a terrible place for xiuzhe, and Little Mountain Jie would
quickly become the playground of the yaomo.
Zuo Mo didnt know what the yaomo had done, nor did he know if the change of ling energy
could be reversed. If this change could be reversed that would be good, but if it could not be then
the situation of the xiuzhe would be terrible! Under an environment without any ling energy, the
offensive power of the xiuzhe would dramatically lessen, and the yaomo would become fish in
the water. If this became the case, the disadvantages of the xiuzhe would continuously increase.
The yaomo would only need to corrode one jie at a time, and the xiuzhe had to retreat.
Damn it!
Zuo Mo felt his heartbeat was increasing.
Alright, he was worrying for nothing. Those large sects wouldnt stand aside. Thousands of years
ago, the xiuzhe had won over the yaomo. They could do it again this time!
Zuo Mo comforted himself so.
His thoughts turned back to himself. The great affairs of the world were nothing to him. It was
more practical to focus more his efforts on his little life.
The price of ling plant farmers was going to grow. At least, he didnt have to worry about
starving this thought flashed through his head.
The order of Little Mountain Jie would completely collapse. He had to quickly leave this place.
He had deeply experienced the ineffectiveness of individual strength on the front lines of battle.
He couldnt affect the battle, he couldnt even decide his own life.
In troubled times, lives were nothing.

Ma Fans heart was fearful. The zombie elder had become silent. He felt the air in front of him
had solidified, an invisible pressure making him tremble. He could clearly hear the increasing
rate of his heartbeat. His mouth was drying.
Why dont you all leave Little Mountain Jie? The zombie elder suddenly asked.

Zuo Mo finally spoke, and Ma Fan no longer felt he was suffocating.


Elder, its not that we do not want to leave Little Mountain Jie, but the jie river towards Sky
Water Jie has been under someones control. If we want to pass, we needed to pay enough
jingshi and ling grains.
Zuo Mo instantly realized. He couldnt help but think that these people were much more vicious
than he was. Little Mountain Jie only had two jie rivers, one to Sky Moon Jie, one towards Sky
Water Jie.
Blockading the jie river towards Sky Water Jie, Little Mountain Jie instantly became a dead end.
No one would dare to go to Sky Moon Jie.
No one has tried to kill their way out?
Ma Fan grimaced. Controlling the Sky Water jie river is the strongest sect in the jie, Clear Sky
Sect.
Hearing this, Zuo Mo shook his head. This wasnt the way to do business.
To do business, there was a relationship of mutual gain. What was traded was jingshi, but what
this Clear Sky Sect wanted was lives. Half of the responsibility for the collapse of order in Little
Mountain Jie could be blamed on Clear Sky Sect and what they were pushing from the shadows.
The xiuzhe that could not escape Little Mountain Jie and could only continuously fight and steal
both jingshi and ling grains from other people. Everyone would think that when they had stolen
enough, they could escape this place.
As for the people remaining, there was only one outcome.
Zuo Mo didnt feel anything guilt about profiteering from war, but what Clear Sky Sect had done
was enough for him to feel cold.
Clear Sky Sects actions of pushing people to the edge of death was like playing with fire. If they
were not careful, they could also fall in. However, from the outside, it was also possible to see
their absolute confidence.
Of course, Zuo Mo was not so carefree as to worry about the life and death of other people. Clear
Sky Sect was blockading the jie river, and so was stopping their road to leave Little Mountain
Jie.
Would Clear Sky Sect allow him to leave? Not possible. Clear Sky Sect had no relationship with
him, would they let go of the chance to get rich?
As to making it through by force? That was even more unlikely.

Gongsun Cha might have been very relaxed in directing the golden armor guards to sort out the
ten or so xiuzhe, but the power that large sects like Clear Sky Sect had was not something so few
people that they had could face.
Give jingshi?
Zuo Mo did have jingshi, but he felt that in other peoples eyes, he was definitely a fat sheep. If it
was him who saw such a fat sheep, there was no reason not to squeeze everything he could. How
could they be content with just jingshi?
Zuo Mo quickly vetoed that plan.
Then, there was only one remaining way, kill his way through them! If he was going to kil, it
wasnt possible with just the three of them. Then, he needed to expand the strength he had. He
needed a power that the other could not dismiss. Clear Sky Sect definitely would not get in a
conflict with him to the point both sides were wounded and suffered significant losses. It was
very simple. Zuo Mo had nothing, but Clear Sky Sect was waiting and raking in jingshi.
Ma Fan would never think that his few words had caused so many thoughts to flashed through
Zuo Mos mind.
Zuo Mo asked for some of the general information regarding Sky Water jie river. As expected,
the Sky Water jie river was unable to be penetrated under Clear Sky Sects management. It also
killed off his last hope. Originally, he had thought about passing under the water of the jie river
by the date seed ship.
Zuo Mo was going to ask Gongsun Shidis opinion, but when he saw Gongsun Shidis excitement
and fanaticism, he already knew the answer.
This extreme militant!
Muttering inside he found Pu Yao, Is there a way to make them listen to me?
Pu Yaos bloody pupil flashed and he snickered, Theres very many. What you xiuzhe use the
most is jinzhi.
Jinzhi? Zuo Mo asked curiously.
This isnt strange. Pu Yao said. This is mostly used on xiu slaves, but some strict sects would
use them on their disciples to stop the disciples from betraying them.
So scary! Zuo Mo shook. He could not imagine that he needed to be implanted with jinzhi
when he entered a sect.

Do you want that method?


Yes.
Zuo Mo only hesitated for a beat before deciding to take it. If it wasnt their death, it was his,
there was nothing to say. First, get past the jie river. Jinzhi were not moral, but it was the most
effective method right now. There was no time for him to waste.
Zuo Mo didnt want to be still in Little Mountain Jie when the yao army returned.
Pu Yao was strangely brisk this time, teaching Zuo Mo several kinds of jinzhi.
It was not that easy to use jinzhi, especially to Zuo Mo who was only first stratum ningmai. He
spent some effort before he barely managed to learn it. This was due to his exceptional
consciousness. Otherwise, jinzhi were not something he could use.
The pitiful Ma Fan became the first experiment.

Just as Zuo Mo was trying his best to put down jinzhi on the unconscious xiuzhe, Pu Yao
revealed an amused expression in the sea of consciousness.
You must also have great anticipation! His chin was propped up in his hand, his eerie bloody
eye deep as a bloody sea, as he lightly said to the gravestone. So practical! Really makes one
admire him more and more! He is destined not to walk your path you stupid selfdestructive f***er!
The gravestone was silent and motionless.

When the last jinzhi was put in, Zuo Mo was exhausted. He put jinzhi in all the ningmai. In total,
there were sixteen people.

The remainder is all down to you. Finishing, Zuo Mo, whose consciousness and ling power
had all been used up, instantly took a piece of jingshi and entered meditation.
No problem! Gongsun Cha raised his handsome and feminine face, smiling and revealing his
teeth. An excited light was in his eyes.
At the side, Ma Fan felt a burst of coldness start at his tailbone and climb up his spine.

Sky Moon Jie, Desolate Wood Reef.


Miss, Yan Yue of the Thirteenth Corps has already reached the jie river towards Bright Wave.
The Jin Bao Zheng of the Sixth Corps has reached the jie river to South Beauty Jie. On the road,
the two troops have not found any suspicious targets. The middle aged man respectfully
reported.
Theyve moved pretty quickly. Mu Xi said faintly. The net has already been cast. The
remainder is to slowly search. Be more attentive.
Yes! The middle aged person sternly responded. He hesitated, and then said, Miss, weve
found signs of mo activity.
Mo? At the side, Yan Fengs expression changed slightly, and he shouted.
Mu Xis gaze slightly narrowed. She raised her head to ask, Have they determined who it is?
To be able to go through the Blood Jie cracks , it can only be mo under brigadier. The shock on
Yan Fengs face did not disappear. Which Moon Mo colonel? Why did he come? Does he have
the same goal as us?
Why is it not possible? Mu Xi glanced at Yan Feng. Youve missed a possibility. For example,
a true mo brigadier that has sealed their own power.
The face of the middle-aged person changed.
Instantly make an investigation. Mu Xi said decisively. Even if he is a true mo brigadier, do
not worry. It would be best to establish communication with him. Maybe he could help us.
Yes, The middle-aged man accepted his orders.

Seeing the worry on her subordinates face, Mu Xi smiled. Dont worry too much, no matter if
it is a moon mo colonel, or a true mo brigadier, they have the same enemy as us.
Mu Xis features could only be called clean, but this smile seemed to have a special power to
make others calm down.
Miss is right, The middle-aged man said with a smile.
Translator Ramblings: Its karma, thats what it is.Sky Moon Jie is now completely closed off.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Eleven Trash and Poor Ghosts
This chapter has been brought to you by me, and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter Two Hundred and Eleven Trash and Poor Ghosts
Zuo Mo looked at the dozen or so unfamiliar faces in front of him. Some of the people were
terrified, but more of them were rebellious.
He was thinking about ways that he could control this group. Presently, Little Mountain Jie was
like a cage, a gladiator stadium, the surviving xiuzhe were not average.
From today onwards I am your Boss, the Big Boss!
Zuo Mos opening did not stir any reaction. Scorn was in most peoples eyes. Zuo Mo had just a
one stratum ningmai cultivation. In front of these people, he didnt have any qualities that he
could be proud about.
Zuo Mo didnt pay any mind to this, and kept on speaking.
I believe you have all had a taste of the jinzhi. I dont want to spend more time talking. My goal
is very simple, to go through the jie river. As for you trash and poor ghosts, you have nothing to
be squeezed out so I dont have much interest in you.
The words were nasty to hear, but many peoples wariness lowered.
The expressionless person in front of them did have the qualification to say this. That date seed
ship was clearly a rare jingshi talismans, a row of seven cinnabar-pattern blue spikes as sharp as
teeth, clearly from an crocodile maw. They could smell faint traces of blood from the teeth. The
long and elegant body of the ship was surrounded by a ling shield that occasionally flashed with
lightning as it wrapped tightly around the ship.

Each person couldnt help but drool when they saw the grand talismans and flying swords the
three Golden Armor Guards were wearing. If it wasnt that they had jinzhi in their bodies, these
people who have leapt at the opportunity regardless of the risk.
Even the richest person in the group was too embarrassed to open his hundred treasures pouch
when facing such a grand scene.
I hope everyone can have happy interactions. Of course, with your present skill level is hard to
make me happy. Zuo Mo was full of scorn and disdain. Look at all of you fighting so messily,
even worse than wandering bandits, no finesse at all. From today onwards you all have to
remember one thing.Gang fighting requires high finesse and is skilled work!
You are all very lucky, Zuo Mo pointed at Gongsun Cha beside him. Mister Gongsun here, is
the best and most famous battle general of Sky Moon Jie. He will personally teach you this
profound skill.
Gongsun Cha smiled shyly, but his face didnt blush at all. Chun Yu Cheng gaped. This boast
was somewhat
When the other peoples eyes landed on Gongsun Cha, all the scorn and disdain completely flew
away, only leaving behind terror.
Very good, Zuo Mo was extremely content. It seemed that Gongsun Shidi had already established
enough authority with these people.
Just like when one did business, after pushing for the lowest price, he needed to give the other an
incentive to motivate the other person.
You will be completely transformed, and you will begin a completely different life here. You do
not need to worry about ambushes in the middle of the night, you do not need to think about
where to escape for safety. Zuo Mo waved his arms, You dont need to worry about anything!
The only worry you need to have is whether or not you can satisfy Mister Gongsun.
Zuo Mo made the last conclusion in an unconcerned tone.
The jie river will fall under our feet.
Zuo Mo, feeling very good about himself, moved the group to the side as he and Gongsun Cha
started to discuss.
How long would it take to train these people to have offensive power? Zuo Mo asked Gongsun
Cha.

Dont know, Gongsun Cha spread his hands, We are all novices.
Zuo Mo had a headache. Gongsun Shidi was right. Everyone here were novices, no one had any
experience.
Gongsun Cha added, According to the rules of the wargame, a new troop needs to be trained for
over a year to form the most basic offensive maneuvers. Also, the wargames you made were all
yaomo style, not xiuzhe, so I have to slowly experiment.
We dont have that much time, Zuo Mo shook his head. He didnt believe the yaomo would
give them a year.
Gongsun Cha thought for a moment, Then we can only increase the intensity of the training, or
there are ways that we can use numbers to make up for lack of power.
Numbers it seems that we need a temporary base, Zuo Mo said solemnly.

Zuo Mo chose a mountain valley. Before, there was a little sect here, but the people had left, so
the valley did not belong to anyone. The reason he chose this place was because there were ling
veins here before.
The reason that the ling energy of Little Mountain Jie had become thin was definitely due to a
problem with the ling veins. Zuo Mo wanted to personally see what the ling veins had become.
They had encountered several groups along the way, which they completely taken down. At the
beginning, it was the Golden Armor Guards. Later, Gongsun Cha commanded the xiuzhe they
had just imprisoned. Compared to the high efficiency of the three Golden Armor Guards, these
ningmai xiuzhe of average strength were extremely inefficient.
The novice Gongsun Cha also made many mistakes, but he was not discouraged.
Zuo Mo knew that it couldnt be rushed, so he slowed down. In any case, there was still the
Golden Armor Guards and the date seed ship in reserve. He didnt need to worry about the
problem of safety. It was hard to find the chance for battle. If he didnt use it, it was really a
waste.
Gongsun Cha quickly displayed his talent as a commander. Going from the complete chaos at the
beginning to a full-fledged organization, took only a span of ten days.

Over the span of more than ten days, the troop had quickly expanded to forty people. Twenty
eight ningmai, twelve zhuji.
Zuo Mo quickly discovered that setting down jinzhi was not harmless. Each jinzhi required him
to put a bit of his consciousness inside the body of the other. Each jinzhi Zuo Mo set would
weaken his consciousness.
This was not something that could be avoided. There were no free meals in this world. It was
only a weirdo like him that could even set jinzhi before he reached jindan.
Luckily, they did not meet large groups of xiuzhe on the road.
According to Ma Fan, there were countless little groups in Little Mountain Jie, and several that
were several hundred strong. Zuo Mo found it strange why the larger groups did not attack the
jie river. Later, he found out the Clear Sky Sect that guarded the jie river was supported by a
jindan!
Zuo Mo was frightened. No wonder the Clear Sky Sect had the confidence to monopolize the jie
river. They had a jindan at their back.
This information instantly made Zuo Mos reconsider the difficulty of of breaking through the jie
river.
Ningmai had three strata. The most important difference was the difference in the amount of ling
power inside the body. The peak of the first stratum, ling power was about ten jing. The peak of
the second stratum was approximately thirty jing, and the peak of the third stratum would shoot
up to ninety jing.
Of the twenty eight ningmai subordinates that Zuo Mo had, only three had reached the second
stratum. The remainder were all first stratum ningmai.
Usually, a ningmai third stratumcould individually deal with ten first stratum ningmai , or three
second stratum ningmai. Of course, this was in theory. Real life was more complex, when taking
into account spells, flying swords, talismans, and offensive tactics.
But if a ningmai faced a jindan, they could only escape. What counter-attack? Winning by pitting
the weak against the strong, it definitely could not appear.
The difference between jindan and ningmai was not just the difference in ling power, but also the
difference in understanding ling power. During the process of entering jindan, xiuzhe would
experience a deeper comprehension of the world and ling power.
The same spell before and after jindan would be drastically different in power.

The only way that ningmai could face jindan was to overwhelm them with numbers. As to how
many people were needed for victory, both Zuo Mo and Gongsun Cha didnt know.
Zuo Mo could only ask Pu Yao.
Gang fighting? That isnt easy to say. Pu Yao rubbed his chin. It depends on the skill of the
other side, their talisman, and the cooperation of your side.
If it was those yao soldiers? Zuo Mo asked.
If its a normal jindan, then a troop of one hundred night stock yao. If the quality of the
commander is not too bad, there shouldnt be a problem, Pu Yao mused.
Zuo Mo released a breath. Good, at least it wasnt completely hopeless.
He naturally knew that the group of people he had could not reach the skill level of the yao army,
but he could expand in numbers. If one hundred people did not work, then two hundred, three
hundred. What he was most worried about was that even numbers would not be enough to make
up for the difference.
Why is the ling energy of Little Mountain Jie becoming thin? Zuo Mo asked Pu Yao.
There are many possibilities, like yao worms that eat ling or Black Line mushrooms. Eating
ling is a characteristic of yaomo.
Is there a way to reverse it?
You can request someone that is at least yuanying to act, and wait ten years for recovery.
Yuanying Zuo Mo was speechless. The strongest xiuzhe that he had encountered up until
now was in jindan. To renew the ling veins, it actually needed yuanying. That was a death
sentence.
Something only someone in yuanying could accomplish, Zuo Mo didnt feel he had any chance
of success.
However, he still decided to establish his base in this mountain valley. The environment around it
was good.

Zuo Mo received a large number of yaomo military training methods from Pu Yao and dumped
them on Gongsun Cha. Pu Yao was actually kind enough to remind Zuo Mo those were old
antiques from thousands of years ago, and they should only be used as a reference.
Zuo Mo was unused to Pu Yaos sudden change in attitude.
But when Pu Yao drew out the earth energy, Zuo Mo, who had become unfamiliar after a period
of time, instantly experienced what was life worse than death!
Even though he knew it was beneficial for his body, he still wanted to cry!
Drawing out the earth energy, when would it end

Ma Fan nervously stood in front of Gongsun Cha. In his eyes, the delicate and shy young
masters deviousness was enough for any yaomo to die of humiliation. No one dared to disobey
his commands. Even the most vicious and rebellious of them all, Lei Peng, was as docile as a
kitten in front of him.
Perform every skill you know once. Do not leave anything out. Gongsun Chas order was not
complicated.
Yes, Ma Fan slowly learned how to live under Gongsun Chas command.
It was very simple. What Gongsun Cha said, then he would do it. If he managed to complete the
demand, then everything was wonderful.
Ma Fan started to perform his spells one by one. Luckily, he had no sect or family. He only knew
so many spells and quickly finished performing. Gongsun Cha was very interested in his illusory
movement method and the three sword moves, and had made him repeat them several times.
Ma Fan had been very worried. What if Big Boss wanted his sword scripture, and wanted him to
give it up?
However, he quickly found his worry was unwarranted. After Gongsun Cha recorded it down, he
was sent back to training.
On the second day, Ma Fan trembled as he took a jade scroll the smiling Gongsun Cha handed
him. After just one look, his little face was the color of dirt!

Translator Ramblings: Jinzhi () in this story is an energy construct. Jin () is a ban, zhi ()
is a system if it is used as a noun, or restriction when used as a verb along with other definitions.
I think ward actually could work as its term except that it is used against people in this story by
being implanted in their souls which isnt something that shows up when I do a google search. It
acts here more like a curse or an oath where if Zuo Mo dies, they die too.
Desolate Wood Reef is tiny. In scale, think North America as Sky Moon Jie, and Desolate Wood
Reef as Hawaii in the middle of the ocean. Now imagine Zuo Mo and the others turning there
and crossing the Pacific Ocean to land in Australia. That would be Little Mountain Jie. Im being
generous with the distances over the water because it took Zuo Mo several months to get to
Desolate Wood Reef through flight, and he reached Little Mountain Jie by water also in a few
months. Remember, Wu Kong Sword Sect alone had four jindan, and there was also Tian Song
Zi. Dong Fu is not the biggest town in Sky Moon Jie, so other towns may have even more
jindan. Little Mountain Jie only has one jindan now, and there were not many before the yao
came, so Little Mountain Jie is either poor, small, or both.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Twleve Ge Is Pragmatic
This chapter has been brought to you by me, and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter Two Hundred and Twelve Ge Is Pragmatic
Pu Yao felt this was extremely amusing.
Truthfully, he had been in Zuo Mos sea of consciousness for this long, and there hadnt been one
thing that was amusing as what was happening right now. In the thousands of years he lived, he
had not encountered something more amusing than this.
A zhuji xiuzhe who had never studied anything in the area, oh, he was also a butcher, had started
to study how to become a battle general. He had never heard of something like this, even during
the great war from thousands of years ago.
He was very familiar with battle generals. In the camp of xiuzhe, without almost any exception,
there were two ways that battle generals were trained. The first was a battle general that was
specifically nurtured by large sects; and the other were battle generals that underwent countless
battles and had gradually comprehended the skills.
The majority were from the first method. In that thousand year war, almost seventy percent of
the famous battle generals in the xiuzhe camp had been from the large sects. They learned all
kinds of knowledge from when they were young. Even the spells they learned were specialized
to command in battle.

The second kind was the other thirty percent. In reality, if one considered all battle generals and
not only the famous generals, the difference would be larger. Not having been taught from birth
and having to climb up step by step from the lowest level, battle generals formed by the second
method were all geniuses. The price they paid were much higher than the first kind.
It looked as though that Gongsun Cha had great hope to become one of those. Yet reality was
always cruel. Being of low status and wanting to become a battle general, these individuals had
to meet one condition: having great individual power. Disregarding the talent to command, the
battle generals that were the second kind had talent in cultivation that was comparable to any
other xiuzhe.
The reason was very simple. If they had no strength, they would not survive through battle. If
they couldnt survive, how could they climb up? Wanting to become a battle general but being of
low status, they had to repeatedly climb over mountains of corpses, in order to accumulate fame
and experience. Then there would be compliance to his orders.
No one in little groups of seven or eight would be willing to put their lives in the hands of an
individual that could die anytime, much less larger troops.
This was also why Pu Yao thought that Gongsun Cha hadnt had a chance. Gongsun Cha was
only a butcher, a zhuji butcher. Pu Yao could easily see that Gongsun Chas talent in cultivation
was very average. Even if he had many lingdan and talismans, he wouldnt accomplish too much
in cultivation.
But Pu Yao did not immediately dismiss his ability to become a battle general, even if he had to
learn on his own. The most important reason was Zuo Mos support.
His talent wasnt in question. If Gongsun Cha had been in a large sect from birth, and he
ultimately became a battle general, Pu Yao would not find it strange. After playing war chess for
so many days, Gongsun Cha had improved quickly.
What really surprised him was that Zuo Mo trusted Gongsun Cha so much!
Even Pu Yao had to admit that Zuo Mos eyes were wondrously accurate. In his mind, Zuo Mos
talent wasnt bad, but it definitely wasnt the best. However, over these two years, even with the
stumbling and tripping, Pu Yao found to his shock that Zuo Mos progress was far outside of his
predictions.
Part of it was that he had been involved, but the speed of improvement of core disciples from
large sects would would rarely reach Zuo Mos level, and they would receive more aid than Zuo
Mo.
But Zuo Mos physical talent really could not be called great. This was what Pu Yao marveled at.

As he kept on thinking about it, Pu Yao felt that it was all caused by Zuo Mos viewpoint.
Zuo Mos viewpoint and mentality were very strange, and very different from normal people. No
matter if it was cultivation, battle, or interpersonal relationships. It was easy for others to see him
as the classical utilitarian. Clever, greedy, and money-grubbing, but he would sometimes do
something that Pu Yao would find stupid and irrational. Yet these idiotic actions would usually
produce good results.
Originally, Pu Yao did not have a good opinion of Gongsun Chas prospects, but considering Zuo
Mo, he was suddenly filled with interest and anticipation.
It was so amusing!

Compared to Pu Yaos attitude of idling and watching from the sidelines, Zuo Mo was so busy
his feet never touched the ground. He had been nagged by Chun Yu Cheng to the point that he
had to build a beast pool. They wouldnt stay for very long in Little Mountain Jie, but it wouldnt
be too short. If they used the time well, they could produce a few batches of ling beasts. Chun Yu
Cheng had been studying for a long time on the date seed ship, and he had many ideas. However,
without the beast pool, all ideas were nothing.
Shixiong, build a beast pool! Chun Yu Chengs words were like a ghost haunting Zuo Mos
ears constantly.
After repeated requests , Zuo Mo complied.
His wealth was large. A beast pool was expensive, but not too expensive. However, the work was
not easy. No one could help him, especially when Chun Shidi had a pile of ideas he wanted to
suggest. To realize these ideas, he needed to modify the beast pool.
The modifications meant that the work he had to do increased dramatically, it meant that he
needed to reconstruct it. Even more, Chun Yu Cheng Shidis ideas would occasionally change.
Each time Zuo Mo wanted to slack off, Chun Yu Chengs haunting voice would float to him
again.
Shixiong, just change a bit, just change a bit
When the beast pool was finished, it was like there was a pin in Zuo Mos behind, he ran away as
far as possible.

When a obedient person started to torture other people, it would make them feel hopeless.
Chun Yu Cheng Shidi began to work on the beast pool, Gongsun Shidi was working on the
group of xiuzhe, and Zuo Mo started to work on himself.
His studies into formations needed a large amount of time. He also added another job for
himself. He found the ling vein, and gathered some of the Black Line mushrooms that ate ling.
He was very interested in them.
Other than that, cultivation was something that could not be missed. His consciousness had
shrunk dramatically after setting down the jinzhi. Thinking about the tactic of battle by relying
on numbers, he deeply felt that increasing his consciousness was his most important priority at
the moment.
[Embryonic Breathing Spiritual Cultivation] became something he needed to do everyday.
After his consciousness manifested, his sea of consciousness transformed. The enchanting flames
in the sea of consciousness had disappeared. The number of stars in the sky had increased to ten.
The sword river still was the same. He had not increased his sword essence.
Looking at the stars in the sea of consciousness, Zuo Mo suddenly recalled the time that he
forged Lil Pagoda, and the stardust that the stars had produced which continuously permeated
his consciousness.
In the void above his consciousness, the ten stars hung. Other than the one star that was
somewhat bright, the rest were dim. Thinking about the speed that the stars sprayed out stardust,
Zuo Mo felt it would take years for the stardust to permeate all of his consciousness.
That is Star Source. Pu Yao sat on the gravestone and raised his head to look at the ten stars
above his head.
What is Star Source? This question had always been buried in Zuo Mos mind. Seeing that Pu
Yao seemed to have intentions of explaining today, he played along and asked.
Star Source is the origin of the spiritual power, Pu Yao slowly said. You can also think of
them as the crystals formed from ling power. Dont you xiuzhe like to talk about how many jing
of ling power?
Ten star spiritual power? Zuo Mo asked in response.
Or you can see them as the springs that birth spiritual power. Ten stars mean that you have ten
springs that can produce spiritual power.

One time, I saw that these stars could spray out silver star dust. What is that? Zuo Mo couldnt
help but ask in curiosity.
What did you say? Pu Yao suddenly opened his bloody pupil, his spine straightening, changing
from his lazy attitude.
Zuo Mo feel slightly terrified under Pu Yaos bloody gaze. Inside, he wondered if the other had
started to go crazy again.
Is something wrong? Zuo Mo weakly asked.
After a beat, he saw Pu Yao say dazedly, The second consciousness
He forcefully shook his head as he refocused. He looked deeply at Zuo Mo. The stardust that
you saw is a purer form of spiritual power. We usually call it spirit dust. These ten stars, bright
and dull are different. The brightest star can produce the most star spirit dust, the speed that it
produces spiritual power is the fastest.
Zuo Mo didnt really understand. Pu Yao didnt attend to him, and kept on talking.
What yao cultivate are the laws of the world. All objects in the world all contain the laws of the
world, all objects in the world can cultivate their spirit. Stars are just one of them. The path of the
stars is profound and cryptic. There are very few yao that walk the path of star spirit cultivation.
Hearing this, Zuo Mo suddenly had a slightly bad premonition. What spirit cultivation are
you?
What I chose is Sky Fire Spirit Cultivation. Pu Yao smiled, his teeth showing.
Zuo Mo interjected, Then why am I star spiritual cultivation?
Because what you cultivate is [Embryonic Breathing Spiritual Cultivation], Pu Yao snickered.
I hadnt thought that this [Embryonic Breathing Spiritual Cultivation] is actually a star spirit
cultivation. I was fooled by the name. He muttered in a small voice, I had expected it was
trash, hadnt thought that it was actually high level, such a loss
An fire suddenly shot up from Zuo Mos heart. He was enraged, pointing at Pu Yaos nose as he
swore. You trash, you gave something you hadnt tested for ye to cultivate! You actually wanted
to use trash to con ye, ye isnt finished with you
Dont be like this! Pu Yao wasnt angry, and said, chuckling, In any case, you didnt lose.
Look, you even managed to cultivate to ten stars. In two years, youve gotten to manifestation.
This speed is very fast!

You you you Zuo Mo pointed, hearing Pu Yaos heartless words became so angry his
finger trembled.
Do you want to know how to cultivate next? Seeing the situation, Pu Yao crisply turned to
temptation.
Yes, Zuo Mo did not hesitate in answering, all his anger flying away.
Pu Yao was not shocked in the slightest by Zuo Mos one hundred and eighty degree turn in
attitude. This guy was very pragmatic.
Thats right. Pu Yao smiled. I can tell you, and I can give you even more help. But I have a
small request.
Say it! Zuo Mo was very familiar with Pu Yaos conduct as well.
I want the golden core of the jindan of Clear Sky Sect.
Zuo Mo was dumbstruck. When he managed to respond, he instantly jumped up. Are you
crazy? Jindan! Go get it yourself if you want it! Run to a little ningmai like myself to say you
want the golden core of a jindan, humph humph, the other can turn me to dust with one slap.
Finishing, he turned and left, waving his hand. If you want to play, play by yourself, ge wont
play with you.
Pu Yaos expression was calm, and not angry, Add a fifth-grade sword scripture.
Zuo Mo pretended not to hear, and continued to walk forward.
Add a fifth-grade movement method.
Zuo Mo was not moved at all, his steps not changing.
Ill make seven more golden armor guards for you.
Zuo Mo decided to ignore him.
And another move of [Little Thousand Leaf Hands].
Zuo Mo instantly stopped his body, and turned to walk towards Pu Yao.
What to do?

Translator Ramblings: Pu Yao reflects on Gongsun Cha and Zuo Mo. Chun Yu Cheng is not
included since he hasnt shown much yet and that isnt Pus area of specialty. But Pu Yao is also
selectively blind about his own role in Gongsun Chas development even as he acknowledges
influencing Zuo Mos development. Wild battle generals had to accumulate knowledge and
experience through fighting which eliminates all but the most talented so they can out-compete
those that were trained by sects and did not have to fight so hard. Gongsun Cha is getting abused
daily by a wise and experienced yao battle general. That is a lot of experience that most people
wont get on a very high level. Its akin to getting a chess grandmaster to play with all his power
daily against a child. Zuo Mos support using jinzhi is enough at this point to force compliance
from the ranks which means that Gongsun Chas learning environment right now is better than
any sect since he has motivation through his desire to survive this place.
Pu Yao and Zuo Mo also know each other very well now. Zuo Mo is getting better at negotiating
with Pu.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Thirteen Ma Fan Reaching Target
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and Brian.
Chapter Two Hundred and Thirteen Ma Fan Reaching Target
Ma Fan felt very troubled.
No matter if it was his ningmai second stratum cultivation or the nameless scripture he
cultivated, they made him one of the top practitioners in this group. But to someone as afraid of
trouble as he was, this prestige wasnt a good thing.
He became one of the important prospects to be nurtured.
The requirements for his training far surpassed everyone elses. Everyone looked at him with
gazes full of sympathy.
Thats right, it really was sympathy.
The training for everyone was extremely strict, so the training regime of an important prospect,
Ma Fans, could only be imagined. However, other than sympathy, they did not feel any joy at
his misfortunes. They didnt even have the power to save themselves. Everyone in the camp put
all their strength into furiously training. If they did not complete their training, their outcome
would be extremely tragic.

On the first day several people did not obey. But now when everyone saw the somewhat
feminine, delicate, and shy youth, they could not control the deep terror that came out of their
heart. The terrified screams that meant a fate worse than death haunted their ears. The inhuman
state of the people who didnt listen frequently haunted their thoughts. Whenever they thought of
it, these people that were used to seeing storms of blood couldnt help but tremble.
Devious, vicious, and cold-blooded, he thought of a life like grass
These words were not enough to describe this seemingly harmless and beautiful youth in front of
them. Even the most rebellious person was docile and obedient in front of him.
This handsome youth might be strict, but if you could successfully finish your training nothing
would happen. He would never try to punish you for unsubstantiated reasons. He didnt take your
talismans or scriptures. After discovering this point, everyone competed to be first, afraid of
being slow, and having to taste that terrible torture that was worse than death.
Ma Fan felt his life was hopeless. Each day was endless training.
Heavens!
How can this be completed?
It hadnt been long since he had broken through to the second stratum of ningmai. The ling
power in his body was around fifteen jing. The content of his training focused on only one thing,
one of his sword moves. Thats right, just the one move. Of the three sword moves that he knew,
the strongest was the [Illusory Shadowless Sword of Destruction]. The power of this move was
very high. Most important was that it did not cause ling power ripples when it was cast. Without
a sound or wind, it never attracted the eye, but it was surprisingly powerful.
In reality, after learning it, he had only used it in combat two or three times before now.
He usually was afraid of trouble, and rarely engaged in combat. If he saw the situation was not
right, he would quickly use the illusory movement method to escape.
His training content was just this move. However, it wasnt so simple. Gongsun Cha had two
demands. The first was that he could use this killing move when he was using the illusory
movement method. The second was that he had to be able to cast this move three times or more
in the span of fifteen minutes. And in one hour, he had to be able to use this move seven or more
times.
When he first received the training regime, it was normal for his face to be ugly.

With his present cultivation, if he cast [Illusory Shadowless Sword of Destruction], he couldnt
do it when he was in motion, and could only cast it four times. After casting it, he needed to rest
for a while before casting again. This clearly short of Gongsun Chas demands.
Ma Fan didnt know how Gongsun Cha had thought of such a fatal demand. Wasnt it just asking
for his life?
He had once gathered his courage to request Gongsun Cha to change it. What he received was
Gongsun Chas light words, Cultivate well, for putting your life on the line is better than losing
it.
When Ma Fan heard this, and his heart instantly became cold. With no other solution, he could
only train with his life on the line. From the time he had started his cultivation, he had never
cultivated so hard before.
Using the illusory movement method at the same time as the [Illusory Shadowless Sword of
Destruction], this was something that he had never thought of before. With no sect, to be able to
become a ningmai second stratum, Ma Fans talent in cultivation was not low, and his
intelligence was not bad. Of course even he could see that if he could use his movement method
and sword move at the same time, the power of the move would increase greatly.
But with his personality of avoiding trouble, if he thought of this in the past, he would have gave
up after trying a few times.
But now, the blade hung above his neck. If he retreated slightly, his little life would be gone.
There was no room to change his current trajectory. He could only push forward.
His ling power was so expended that he almost spat blood, his body was sore and soft that it felt
like his skeleton was coming apart. For the sake of his little life, he must cultivate! Cultivate!
Cultivate! He had cultivated to the point that he wanted to throw up when he saw a flying sword

He actually succeeded!
A flickering figure fluttered uncertainly in the air, and without warning, several explosions
suddenly occurred in the air!
Boom!
The ground fifty zhang away from him seemed to have been struck by something invisible,
suddenly exploding open, sending dirt flying. The people who had been training near by were
alarmed, and put out their ling shields. Pia pia pia, the flying dirt hit the ling shields like rain.
Those with weaker cultivation even felt their ling shields shake.

Everyone was shocked!


When they looked at the ground, they saw seven deep holes in a row, each hole that was two
zhang deep!
Crashing down through the air, yet still so powerful, if this was someones body
Their eyes as they looked at Ma Fan instantly changed. This guy definitely had been holding
back before! However, some with nimbler minds had happy expressions. Right now, everyone
was on the same rope, Ma Fan getting stronger was good for all of them. At least, the probability
of keeping their lives was now higher.

Gongsun Cha also had a surprised expression .He hadnt thought that Ma fan would be the first
to achieve his demands. In his plan, Ma Fan was the primary attacker, or rather, it was better to
say he was the ambusher. With the unpredictable illusory movement method, and the
undetectable but powerful [Illusory Shadowless Sword of Destruction] that could kill with one
blow, wasnt he born for ambushing?
It was a pity that while the illusory body movement method was hard to follow, but it was easy
for people to guard against, lowering the abruptness of an ambush. If there was a movement
method that could completely conceal him, then Ma Fans power would be even greater.
Gongsun Cha felt he needed to think thoroughly about how to use Ma Fan to his greatest
potential. He may look confident and calm in front of these xiuzhe, but in reality, his mind had
been tense from the beginning.
He was a beginner, and had not been trained. Zuo Shixiong trusted him, so Shixiong certainly
wouldnt blame him for making mistakes in the beginning. However, though Gongsun Cha might
look soft, he was actually very proud. Would he permit himself to make mistakes at such an
important time?
All of his days were spent on these xiuzhe. He had long stopped his own cultivation.
He disliked failure!

Ma Fan looked in disbelief at the seven deep holes in front of him on the ground, his mind blank.
He did it he really did it
Was this really something he had done?
Dazedly landing on the ground, his mind was wandering. He had never thought that he could
really do it!
He gritted his teeth and persisted in training because he was forced to; but when he really met the
goals which he never could have possibly conceived of before, a different emotion filled his
heart.
Looking at the flying sword in his hand, a seed called confidence gradually sprouted in his heart.

Right now, do not create new stars. You cannot bite off more than you can chew. You should
spend more time to temper these ten stars, so they will be as bright as your brightest star. The
stars are the source of your spiritual power, and the brighter they are, the more spiritual power
they produce, especially stardust. The brighter the star, the more pure the star dust they spray out.
This alone will be more beneficial to you.
In meditation, Zuo Mos mind had retreated to his sea of consciousness. He sat cross legged
facing the stars, a ethereal strand of star light dropping from one of the stars and entering Zuo
Mos forehead.
As Zuo Mo breathed, the star light brightened and dimmed pleasantly.
Bathing in the star light, Zuo Mo channeled the spell and communicated with the star.
Communicating with the star was the first step in tempering it. After this, Zuo Mo needed to find
a star home, take in star power, and then use it to nurture the stars in his consciousness to
increase the Star Source.
This time, Pu Yaos teachings were extremely detailed, answering all his questions patiently. He
also didnt drag his heels on what he had promised Zuo Mo, and paid upfront.

After communicating with the star in his sea of consciousness, Zuo Mo stopped his cultivation.
Absorbing star power had to be done at night. He spent some time on reading through the good
things he had gotten from Pu Yao before he started to think.
The stage of jindan was a stage that every xiuzhe dreamed about that time. At that time, the ling
power of the xiuzhe would form into a golden core, hence the name. The golden core was the
best parts of the ling power of a xiuzhe. Even the source of their life was inside it. A xiuzhe that
lost their golden core would die. In other words, to obtain the golden core of a jindan, one had to
kill them.
Kill a jindan!
That really was a crazy idea!
But behind this crazy idea, Zuo Mo had his own considerations. He would definitely have a
battle with Clear Sky Sect. This jindan was an enemy he would have to meet. Zuo Mo didnt
have any thought of being so lucky as to avoid it.
To pass through the jie river, they had to defeat this jindan. That was the lowest goal. Right now,
it was just increasing from defeating a jindan to killing a jindan. It sounded shocking, but in
reality, there wasnt much of an increase.
After a jindan was defeated, they would definitely flee. It was better to kill them. If the other
escaped, they would never face him directly again. It wouldnt be difficult for the jindan to wait
in the shadows to kill him. If the other went to invite a few of his jindan friends, then this little
Zuo Mo would definitely die.
Taking a few hundred people to scheme against a jindan, Zuo Mo felt that he had a slightly
probability of victory. But if it was two jindan, Zuo Mo guessed he wouldnt even be able to
escape.
Thinking about it now, no matter if he agreed to Pu Yaos demands or not, he definitely could not
let Clear Sky Sects jindan live.
Zuo Mos heart was scared. It was lucky that he had agreed to Pu Yaos request. Otherwise, if he
had let the other go after the battle, he would have caused himself many problems.
After thinking it through, the rock in Zuo Mos heart instantly landed. People were like this. If
they heard the great reputation of the other, it was easy to be intimidated and scared. However,
once they understood that there was no other path, even against a god, they would take off a few
pieces of flesh.
The effect that Zuo Mos personal power could have in this battle was pitifully small. It wasnt
even as high as the three golden armor guards.

Luckily, he was never a person that relied on brute power to eat.


He had a daring idea.
Translator Ramblings: Ma Fans sword technique is so long, four long words plus a preposition.
Might be the longest name so far in the story.
Zuo Mo is starting to plan. This is great motivation for him. Also, the girl that sent the paper
cranes is not showing up anytime soon. Think long long into the future but she will come back.
Ive also discovered that I misspelled twelve in the previous chapter I guess you guys dont
read chapter titles?

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Fourteen A Mountain Of Problems
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and Brian.
Chapter Two Hundred and Fourteen A Mountain Of Problems
The art of multiple people fighting less, that was gang fighting. Gang fighting, that was fighting
in groups.
In Zuo Mos understanding, it was ridiculous to depend on a person that had been only l studying
ling grains two years ago to study battle tactics. However, if it was about gang fighting, he still
had some real experience. There were many disciples in the outer sect; of course, there were
those that were bullies. Adding on that the little factions were like trees in a forest, while fights
didnt happen everyday, there would be an occasional one.
Having seen many gang fights, the winning side always had certain qualities.
First, more people was better. This was the most basic tenet of gang fighting. Gang fighting, if
there werent enough people, it would be embarrassing to call it a gang. More people won over
fewer people, that was the most common outcome.
The second was bravery and viciousness. Bravery was not being afraid. The other side had
more people, but their side dared to put their life on the line. The people who were not afraid of
putting everything into a fight dominated everything around them. Other people didnt dare to
get close. Even experts wanted to stay alive! As to viciousness, it meant being unconditional in
attacking. Once an attack started, one could not attend to their own back and be timid; the blow
coming from the vicious had to reach rock-bottom. After flipping over several people, the other
side would be discouraged.

Next was cooperation. The essence of group fighting was using more people fighting fewer
people. Then how could the smaller group win? That required cooperation. A group of
cooperative people defeating disordered rabble three times their number, was very normal
occurrence.
The last was that the weapons were appropriate, look at Ling Ying Sect, they were the epitome of
this. However, even the best talismans and flying swords depended on the people using it. Idiots
with talismans were still idiots.
After concluding all this, Zuo Mos thoughts became nimble.
It took time to increase numbers, and it was a task that could not be hurried. Regarding bravery
was vicious, Zuo Mo felt that it was pretty hard to attain. This group of people would be very
unwilling, and were only forced to follow due to his jinzhi.
Cooperation could be considered, but this was Gongsun Chas problem. If he interfered, he might
not have any positive benefit to the situation.
What he could only work on weapons.
He may have some talismans, but it wouldnt be better than what these people had searched for
and schemed for themselves. He could only think about other objects. He actually did find
something.
Yin fire bead!
The power of the yin fire bead did not have to be said. He had never tried it on a jindan, but there
definitely was not a problem with people under jindan. If one wasnt enough against jindan, then
two. If that was still not enough, then everyone could throw them together. Each person throwing
eight or ten surely even jindan couldnt bear it!
He thought uncertainly. However, he did feel that it was possible.
In the past, he had always been worried that the matter of him knowing how to make yin beads
would be revealed. Now that it was a matter of life or death, he threw those concerns to the back
of his mind. If it spread, then there was a possibility of people targeting him, but that was a
matter for the future. If he couldnt leave Little Mountain Jie, then there was no future.
This idea made his mind jump. He inventoried the yin fire beads that he had, there were ten or so.
He shook his head, discontent with this number. For ningmai, Zuo Mo felt ten was enough, but
the other was jindan!
That was a jindan!

Just thinking about it, Zuo Mo felt respect rise; and his desire for battle decreased. Other people
may not know the strength of jindan, but how could Zuo Mo not know? He had suffered greatly
under Xin Yan Shishus hands and had a clear understanding of jindan. If it was just him alone,
Zuo Mo definitely would not be able to wound Xin Yan Shishu even with things ten times more
powerful than yin fire beads.
This was because he basically could not throw them and have them touch Xin Yan Shishus body.
But if it was gang fighting, Zuo Mo thought there was a small chance. In a battle, there would be
many talismans and flying swords flying. Before the yin fire bead was activated, it was not eyecatching. If the other was not on their guard , it was easy to get tricked.
Zuo Mo brought this problem up with Pu Yao. Of all these people, only this guy had fought
jindan experts before.
Your idea is somewhat interesting, Pu Yao had an interested expression.
Seeing Pu Yaos expression, Zuo Mo knew that it had potential, But this requires yin fire beads.
Where can I get more yin fire beads?
You need to find a place with yin fiends, Pu Yao didnt have a solution, Find someone
familiar with the area and ask.
Hearing Pu Yao say so, Zuo Mo knew that there was no place with yin fiends nearby. Otherwise,
with Pu Yaos abilities, he could have immediately pointed to the location. He could only go ask
the xiuzhe of Little Mountain Jie and see if anyone of them knew if there were places with yin
fiends.

When he walked into the camp, he was shocked by the heated atmosphere. Twenty something
ningmai cultivating together, the presence was shocking, his little heart beating rapidly. After a
long while, he recovered. Seeing Gongsun Cha talking with Ma Fan in the corner, he hurriedly
ran over.
When he neared, he heard Gongsun Cha lecturing Ma Fan.
Your pathing just now was not correct. You have to remember your role. You have no set
location, so you cannot stop. You need to be more nimble. Understand? More nimble! Swimming
between them, search for chances

You also need to notice to retract your presence; you need the enemy to not notice your
existence
Notice the opportunities. Do not deliberately search to kill with one move. You are the main
attacker, yes, but you have fellows. They are not just decorations. At this time, your best chance
is to attack. Yes, you cannot kill him, but he will reveal openings and will give your fellows
opportunities. Other than killing enemies, you need to learn how to make opportunities for your
fellows
If you decide to attack, dont do those unnecessary flourishes. You have to be more
straightforward, use more force! One move, you only have the chance for one move
Zuo Mo had never seen Gongsun Cha so fierce. Thats right, full of fierceness. This guy who
usually looked shy and weak was bellowing a whole bunch of stuff out.
Seeing Ma Fans nervousness, not daring to miss a word, Zuo Mos heart was suddenly full of
sympathy.
After the lecture, Gongsun Cha waved and indicated for Ma Fan to continue cultivating.
Everyone is working hard! Zuo Mo said with feeling.
Gongsun Cha nodded, En, when they can sell their lives, that will be almost enough. Ma Fan,
who had been preparing to leave, staggered and almost fell.
Zuo Mo mumbled in response, and asked uncertainly, Do you need help? He had completely
thrown everything on Gongsun Chas shoulders. Even he was slightly ashamed. Seeing Gongsun
Cha so busy his feet didnt really touch the ground, who would not feel a bit of shame.
Gongsun Cha tilted his head to think and asked, Can you make a kind of talisman?
What talisman do you want? Speaking of talismans, Zuo Mo felt his bravery rise. These
spectacular and eye-dazzling things in the camp, he could understand if they were by themselves,
but he didnt understand when they were put together. But if it was about talismans, he was good
at that!
Zuo Mo completely forgot that he was also self-taught in forging talismans. In total, Xin Yan
Shishu hadnt thought him that many times. Having just felt some shame, Zuo Mo instantly
found a place he could express his value and make up for his deficiencies, his mind becoming
alert.
Oh, talismans like the necklace Gongsun Cha took off the Same Heart necklace on his neck.
Zuo Mo scratched his head. He understood what Gongsun Cha meant, to pass orders.

Pu Yao had spoken about this problem with him. The yao armies used the consciousness to pass
on commands, the mo armies used the mo matrix to pass on commands, and xiuzhe used seals.
The Same Heart necklace could connect the user to six of the fellows, which meant commanding
six other people. Clearly, six people could not satisfy Gongsun Chas demands. Zuo Mo agreed
with that. Facing jindan, it probably needed several hundred. How to direct all of them then?
The battlefield changed every second. If they could not respond immediately, then there was only
death.
Zuo Mo hadnt expected that he couldnt solve the problem of the yin fiends, and instead found
another problem out of his trip to the camp. However, he understood the importance of the
matter could not be delayed. He immediately passed on the matter of the yin fiend grounds to
Gongsun Cha and rushed away with the Same Heart necklace. However, before he left, a batch
of jingshi and ling grains was scraped off him.
He had to rejoice now that Master had gotten large amounts of supplies for him when Wu Kong
Sword sect had sent him to the Desolate Wood Reef. They were used to great effect now. High
intensity training like this consumed enormous amounts of jingshi and ling grains.
Zuo Mo was doubtful if he could manage it if there were one hundred or more people. However,
this was not the time to think of it. The most pressing problem was what Gongsun Cha had
thrown over.
Large-scale group fighting, xiuzhe used seals to pass commands. If it was forging, Zuo Mo dared
to try, but if it was making seals, he could do nothing.
However, Zuo Mo was not a conservative person. This world would always have ways. Even
more, he had a model on his hands. The effect of this Same Heart necklace was not any different
than seals, but it was a talisman.
Zuo Mo started to think of how to replicate the Same Heart necklace. The number of people the
Same Heart necklace could command was much lower, and could not reach Gongsun Chas
demands. However, he thought of a method. Seven people to a troop, the leader of the troop in
command. The troop leader would wear two necklaces, one to direct the troop members, the
other receiving orders from the rank above. That way, wouldnt everything be connected?
Of course, the usability of this method had to wait for the objects to be made before it could be
tested.
The Same Heart necklace was an upper fourth-grade talisman. Theoretically, it was beyond of
Zuo Mos ability. But thinking that he had patted his chest just now, there was actually no one
except him that could solve the problem.

To be able to qualify as upper fourth-grade, the forging skill of the Same Heart necklace was
very high. There were more than one hundred formations in the little necklace. These formations
were either by themselves, or they were connected with others.
That was the focus of Zuo Mos study.
Only by familiarizing himself with these formations and chewing through all of them, he could
understand how the Same Heart necklace could connect minds. Only by understanding the theory
could he then copy it.
This wasnt a small task. However, as it related to his wealth and little life, Zuo Mo definitely
wouldnt slack in the least. He would even eat this necklace if needed, much less just study it!
All in!
Translator Ramblings: Zuo Mo projects his own fighting experience into large-scale warfare and
discovers there is not a lot he can do at the moment. But he has a direction now. How do you kill
someone who is faster and more powerful than you are? Drown him in people!
Gongsun Cha, as shown in previous chapters, is going to be an important character. The chapters
in the future be partially from his point of view or on what he is doing. Zuo Mo is important and
the primary focus but hes just one person who isnt going to be able to level up and kill the
jindan by himself. Teamwork and a whole lot of talent, sweat and luck.
Poor Ma Fan. I wonder if his parents thought he was trouble so thats what they named him

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Fifteen Sustain Battle Through Battle
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, warlord212, and Brian.
Chapter Two Hundred and Fifteen Sustain Battle Through Battle
He had lost again.
Gongsun Cha looked at the devastated landscape, his remaining shreds of troops and grimaced.
He didnt remember how many times he had lost.
The skill of the mysterious War Chess opponent was extremely high. He didnt know anything
about the mysterious opponent. He couldnt even find any traces of this mysterious person
usually. But he knew, this mysterious person that he had never met really existed.

Because the other would play War Chess with him.


Even though the other would use Zuo Shixiong as a cover, the skill of the two individuals were
so drastically differed that Gongsun Cha could easily detect it.
Gongsun Cha intelligently did not ask. It wasnt too hard for him to accept that the soul of an
elder which had not extinguished was living inside Zuo Shixiongs body. Thinking about Zuo
Shixiongs sudden rise in the last two years, it added some support for his speculation.
However, the feeling of defeat was still terrible!
He wasnt content!
Even though he knew this was the normal and most rational outcome, and he was able to learn
many things from each loss, but he just wasnt content! He disliked defeat or it was more
accurate to call it hate.
This unwillingness flashed through his heart and was buried deep down. Anger was not useful.
The War Chess was different than real battles, but this was the only place right now where he
could learn how to command. There was no room for him to pick and criticize.
Also, that mysterious elder was clearly an expert at War Chess. The wondrous tactics and the
frightening offensive power. Each time the battle was at its fiercest, he would have a feeling that
the person opposite him was a large man with a heavy and flaming hammer!
What the other was most skilled in was dictating the battlefields the offensive zones. It could not
be rivaled. He would often see the other begin killing in all directions with an unreasonable and
arrogant attitude. The balanced situation, once the two sides started to kill each other, would
herald Gongsun Chas defeat. His territory was like a crisp cookie. First, it was his borders that
would crack. The gaps would grow bigger and turn into a situation where his entire defensive
line would break.
Brutal, forceful, charging forward!
Many times, Gongsun Cha would be puzzled. In his mind, the commanding ability of the
mysterious person was much higher than him, and he would be a better candidate to lead the
troops. Zuo Shixiong did not use the powerful one but threw such an important and troublesome
matter to a beginner like him.
He pondered it for a while before throwing the question to the back of his mind. Having finally
found something that made him feel interest, and having such challenging battles ahead of him,
he felt excited just thinking about it!
So amusing, so interesting!

Having sorted out his emotions, Gongsun Cha burrowed back into the camp.
In the War Chess games that Zuo Mo had made, if the forces were not yao, they were mo. Xiuzhe
were the rarest. Other than the most classical xiuzhe combinations, there was nothing that he
could reference. In comparison, the combinations of yaomo soldier types were much richer and
extremely detailed. Sometimes, he would wonder. Was that elder inside Zuo Shixiongs body an
old yaomo?
This guess was not unsupported. Other people might not be able to see the true face of the
Golden Armor Guards, but having been in command of them for so long, how could Gongsun
Cha not know?
These three Golden Armor Guards were the White Scaled Attendants of the yao guards.
White Scaled Attendants were a low-level soldier type frequently seen in the War Chess. He had
used them multiple times. The reason that he could use the Golden Armor Guards to their
maximum potential was due to the inspiration and help that the War Chess gave him. However,
what he did not understand was the power of the three Golden Armor Guards far surpassed
normal White Scaled Attendants.
Gongsun Cha completely did not care whether the mysterious person was yaomo or not.
There were enough problems for him to have a headache about already.
No matter if it was xiuzhe or yaomo, there had to be great consideration taken in the
combinations of soldier types. Like the classical sword-seal, sword-Dhyana combinations of the
xiuzhe. The combinations of the yaomo were more variable and rich.
But Gongsun Cha only had twenty eight ningmai and twenty six of them were sword xiu. Of the
last two, one was a sabre xiu, while the other was a Dhyana. Completely all battle xiu, but there
were no xiuzhe that could take a support role.
On paper, this kind of battle force was very strong. In reality, for group battle, the structure of
this kind of force was extremely terrible. The effect of everyone was the same, that meant that
the group lacked depth, diversity, and was therefore unable to complete formation
transformations.
Sword xiu had the strongest offensive power, but it did not mean they did not have weaknesses.
Compared to other xiuzhe, sword xiu lacked the endurance for long battles. Sword xiu were
heavy on offense and light on defense, their other flaw was their defense was too weak.
Large scale battles were different than individual battles. Sword xiu were the kings of individual
combat. Their strong and sharp attacks and their fast speed allowed them to be at an advantage in
short individual battles, to pressure the enemy to the point of suffocation. In individual battles,

sword xiu only needed to consider how to kill off the enemy before the enemy could threaten
their weakness. But in group fighting, especially on large scales, sword xiu usually needed the
protection of other xiuzhe at their sides so they could release their strong offensive power.
If a troop only had sword xiu, the enemy only needed to stop their first wave of attacks. Large
scale sword xiu fatalities would only follow this as the sword xiu began to tire.
Okay, in reality, he didnt need so many transformations. Gongsun Cha could only tell himself
this.

In any case, after leaving Little Mountain Jie, everyone would split up. Zuo Shixiong had told
him this multiple times. The reason was very simple. They couldnt support such a large group.
On this matter, Zuo Mo did not lie.
If one wasnt in charge, they did not know the price of food and supplies. Zuo Mo felt the
pressure already with forty people. Especially in Little Mountain Jie where the only things that
could replenish ling power were ling grains and jingshi. Yet the intensity of training could not be
lessened. They were racing for time against the yao army.
The later they left Little Mountain Jie, the higher the danger.
Jingshi had side effects and could not be used in large amounts so the expenditure was not as
high as ling grains. Zuo Mo quickly could not support it any longer.
Its not going to work if we keep going like this, Zuo Mo said decisively. The ling grains I
have are only enough to support us for another half a month.
Half a month Gongsun Cha looked at Zuo Mo, what should we do?
Battle to feed battle! Zuo Mo did not hesitate to say.
We can only do this. Gongsun Cha felt helpless. These forty people were still far from what he
demanded. However, he had no solutions to the problem that Zuo Mo stated.
However, he instantly thought of the necklace he had mentioned before. Have the talismans
been made?

Ive grasped the method, Zuo Mo spread his hands, But there arent enough materials.
With that, Gongsun Cha completely cut off his thoughts about the Same Heart necklace,
assembling the forty people and departing instantly.
Zuo Mo actually wanted to go with them, but thinking about Chun Yu Cheng who was still at the
beast pool, he decided to stay and protect the base. The three Golden Armor Guards were also
kept behind. Of course, he said, since it was a true battle, then it should be a treated as real one.
To guarantee safety, Zuo Mo had set up formations around the mountain valley. Most of those
were illusory formations. Right now, his skill with formations had grown. Little illusory
formations and little killing formations were interlocked. The power wasnt high, but to distract
the enemy, it was more than enough.
Yin fire beads, seal soldiers, Golden Armor Guards, adding on the illusory traps, his safety was
quite secure.

Gongsun Cha took his forty subordinates and slowly progressed.


In terms of prosperity, Little Mountain Jie could not compare to Sky Moon Jie. Naturally, there
were not as many experts here as Sky Moon Jie. However, if it was in terms of harshness, Sky
Moon Jie could not compare with the present Little Mountain Jie. Twenty eight ningmai, in Sky
Moon Jie, it was not an insignificant force, but in the present Little Mountain Jie, it wasnt
anything.
The reason was very simple. Those xiuzhe of lesser strength had already died.
Those that could survive until now were all ones with some skill and intelligence. Under such
cruel conditions, the peak of zhuji was the bottom line of survival. Ningmai first stratum was
normal, ningmai second stratum was enough to become the elite of a small troop, and ningmai
third stratum was enough to enter the rank of experts. As for jindan, there was just one.
These individuals similar to the Golden Armor Guards, their cultivation was between first and
second stratum of ningmai, but their true power was far beyond normal ningmai second stratum.
The yao guards forged from ancient dragon bone, Golden Crow Fire, and the Nether Pool, could
normal people compare?

Three sword xiu formed a combat unit. Three combat units, one at the forward position, two at
their sides, formed a triangle. They were the frontline guards. Gongsun Cha picked the sword xiu
that could fly the fastest.
The other ten combat units maintained a distance between each other. Ma Fan was alone as he
weaved through these units.
Three people to an unit was Gongsun Chas response to his lack of means. The Three Talent
Formation was the simplest formation, but these people still had not familiarized themselves with
it yet, and this was just the simplest formation.
In large scale battles, what was crucial was the tactics.
But just forty people
If this was on a large scale battlefield, they wouldnt even form the smallest and most basic
combat unit. To command such a small group, what was most important was formations and
cooperation. Formations was something unique to xiuzhe. From the most basic Three Talent
Formation to the super large formations that required tens of thousands of xiuzhe to set up, they
could all increase battle strength.
Take for example the Three Talent Formation. In the formation, the three peoples energies
would be merged, and they could communicate, increasing the connection between them. It was
a very practical and useful formation. Some higher level formations would have killing moves
unique to them. If they were activated, they were so strong the sky would change color.
However, it was not so easy to make a formation. Everyone inside the formation needed to
accurately remember their position and the variations. This group hadnt even grasped the most
basic Three Talent Formation, the difficulty of such formations could be imagined.
Formations might be able to increase battle power, but they were not for all purposes. In battle,
the situation could change in an instant. What it tested was the perception abilities of the
commander, their quick response, and the cooperation between their comrades.
Gongsun Cha stood at the very center of the troop. Several of the most powerful were beside
him. Ma Fan wandered around nearby.
Glancing at Ma Fan, Gongsun Cha was very satisfied. Out of everyone, Ma Fan was the one
most important to him. Other than his strong battle power, he had comprehension that was
stronger than other people, and he could always quickly understand Gongsun Chas intentions.
So Gongsun Cha did not hesitate to make him part of the core, and custom-made a battle tactics
centred on him.

Just at this time, the front passed on news. There was a situation!
A flash of faint red rose and left Gongsun Chas soft and delicate face. His first battle had come!
Translator Ramblings: Gongsun Cha is the first person to find out that Zuo Mo has someone else
helping him. I like how he doesnt even press. Since they are all on the same side, more help is
better than nothing.
I hope sustain battle through battle is self-explanatory. What Gongsun Cha wants to do is fight,
win, and then put resources into expansion so they can fight and capture more. They do not have
enough resources at this point to expand on their own and this is a risky strategy because you
have no backup if you lose a few battles because the army will run out of resources and
manpower. Essentially, dont do this unless you have nothing to lose.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Sixteen Gongsun Chas First Battle
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Two Hundred and Sixteen Gongsun Chas First Battle
It had been so hard to think of the yin fire bead, but the result was that he couldnt find yin fiend
grounds and form yin beads.
It had been so hard to understand how to forge the Same Heart necklace, but the result was that
there werent enough materials. Luckily, that Same Heart necklace wasnt damaged, and had
been given back to Gongsun Cha.
Zuo Mo was depressed but he still did what he had to do. He needed to cultivate his
consciousness. There was no way around it. Jinzhi was a good thing, but it consumed
consciousness and it was a eternal consumption.
As to practicing sword scriptures, Zuo Mo didnt have that much interest. His five essence sword
set had been forged. Even though there was a distance until it was perfect but he was very
content with the present progress.
The power of the five essence sword set was very high. At the time, his idea had been very
original, but now, he discovered he had made a fatal mistake. The sword formation was formed,
but there was no accompanying sword scripture that he could cultivate. Of the five sword
essence, other than [Li Water Sword Scripture] and [Ice Dragon Sword Scripture], he only had
the appearance but not the substance of the other sword essences

Basically, his five essence sword formation was a paper tiger.


This made him very discontent.
Anyone would not be happy. Spending so many good materials, putting in so much effort, but
having made such useless things. However, he temporarily did not have a solution so he could
only put it away.
He didnt practice the move of [Little Thousand Leaf Hands] that Pu Yao gave him. All of his
spiritual power was given to jinzhi in this while. He didnt even need to think about body
cultivation either. Any earth energy he gathered would be given in tribute to Pu Yao in the end. It
had been a long time since he had done body cultivation. Even though he knew that drawing out
the earth energy was good for him, but at this point in time, it really wasnt worth the cost.
He put the most time on formations. To break through Little Mountain Jie, there were only two
paths. One was increasing his own strength. If he could reach jindan, the other jindan would not
block him. However, was it possible? Completely impossible!
The other path was what he was doing now, increasing the strength on his hands. Everything to
do with commanding the group, he threw to Gongsun Cha. He believed in this battle maniac. He
would definitely express the desire for battle which was concealed under those feminine and
delicate features.
The remaining question was, what could he do?
Zuo Mo didnt want to wait around when it came to his own little life, and put all his hopes on
Gongsun Shidi.
Therefore, an extremely weighty and meaningful question was put in front of him how could
he increase the power of a group quickly?
Talismans, he threw that away. He didnt even have enough materials to make the same heart
necklace, much less anything else. He did have a lot of materials but that was only if he
considered only himself. If he included everyone, there really wasnt enough. Like the grandiose
talismans of the Golden Armor Guards, there wouldnt be enough money even if Zuo Mo sold
himself.
Lingdan, Zuo Mo quickly threw away this method. Zuo Mo himself had never encountered
lingdan that could increase cultivation. Slightly less effective were those support-type lingdan.
He could make a batch, but against a jindan, it wasnt enough.
What was left? Formations.

Zuo Mos topic of study was the mo matrix. In the beginning, he hadnt thought of the mo matrix
at all. It was completely due to being forced by the lack of ling grains that he had an
extraordinarily daring idea. He could carve mo matrixes on all these xiuzhe. The thin ling energy
in the air, after automatically gathering under the power of the mo matrix, was very substantial.
Even more importantly, they would be able to use the ling power of the jingshi and not have to
worry about the impurities of the jingshi harming their bodies.
In comparison, the ling power in the jingshi was much richer than in the ling grains.
Of course, his rational mind suppressed this insane idea.
Right now, they were at war with the yaomo. If he took a group of people with mo matrix carved
on them out, there would be only one outcome, being killed for being yaomo.
He had never felt how valuable the mo matrix was before. Now, he had a deep experience of the
benefits of the mo matrix. If he couldnt carve the mo matrix, then he could go back a step.
Didnt Pu Yao say that the essence of the mo matrix was formations?
As long as he could find the formations that could purify the impurities in the ling power, and the
formations that could automatically gather ling, wouldnt the problem be solved?
He had a ready example of the mo matrix. Due to the mo matrix being on his body, and his
extremely sensitive consciousness, he could clearly feel every change inside the mo matrix.
The simple-looking mo matrix was far more complex than he had imagined. Zuo Mos skill in
formations was not low now, especially after having studied the micro formations in danmaking. The formations in the mo matrix had some similarities to those.
Other than formations, there were many pictures that seemed decorative, yet were extremely
similar to formations. If he wanted to understand which were useful, and which were not, it
would take three to five years.
But in Zuo Mos hands, this became a very simple matter. He only had to use his consciousness
to sweep across, and then he could clearly detect it.
However, this was just the first step. Even though he had gotten rid of many of the distractions,
but the remainder was still hard to work out. Not every formation would have a visible effect, but
once they were removed, the entire mo matrix would lose its effect. Other than that, there were
some semi-formation constructs. These semi-formation constructs would form a very special
kind of formation with Zuo Mos flesh and blood.
This was probably these constructs that merged the formations with flesh and blood.

Luckily, this degree of difficulty wasnt enough to scare Zuo Mo. The yao army was like a
guillotine hanging over Zuo Mos head. Thinking of breaking through Little Mountain Jie was
enough to motivate him.
The present Zuo Mo seemed more like a production xiuzhe.
Alright, he had always been a production xiuzhe, Zuo Mo smiled in self-disdain.
He probably would have never thought that his actions made Pu Yao jump in fright. Pu Yao
naturally had his own aims when he had carved the mo matrix and added the yao seed for Zuo
Mo. But he never would have expected Zuo Mo to progress so quickly.
In the sea of consciousness, Pu Yaos expression was heavy as he kept a close look.
Does this guy know just how terrifying the things he was studying right now were

Gongsun Chas luck was not too good. He had encountered a troop of about sixty people. A troop
of sixty people could be considered to be quite organized. It wasnt easy to support such a troop.
This time, the groups that were still active all were not ordinary. Little Mountain Jie didnt have
any low hanging fruit left.
The two sides did not exchange pleasantries.
Gongsun Cha did not feel he needed to say anything. This was a habit he had formed during War
Chess. Pu Yao didnt like to chit chat with his enemies before starting to fight. Having
encountered an opponent that used everything, it could be imagined what habits Gongsun Cha
had.
On the other side, the people felt that they had twice as many people, and the chance of victory
was high. Also, a group of forty people definitely had some supplies, and probably wouldnt be
that poor.
So the two sides did not speak and the battle instantly heated up.
Gongsun Cha was slightly nervous at the beginning, but when he saw the other side rush forward
in messy groups, he smiled. A very warm and sweet smile.
The combat units closest to the front retreated slightly.

The other side clearly had many of the habits from individual fights. Many of the xiuzhe attacked
at the same time, sword energies flying high. Since there were many of their fellows in the
surroundings, they were even more brave, and naturally did not keep anything back when they
attacked.
Several dozen sword energies gathered like a roaring dragon.
Of the three combat units that were ordered to retreat, one of the units were half a beat slower,
and instantly were shredded to pieces.
Seeing that three people had died, the group became even more brave, charging forward towards
the people who were retreating.
Having lost three people, Gongsun Cha didnt even bat an eyelid.
Just as the forward combat units were retreating, the two combat units on the second row moved
forward.
Six sword energies suddenly erupted between the two combat units that were retreating.
Pew pew pew!
The four sword xiu that had been charging at the front, and were struck at full force. Blood
sprayed out!
The sudden change made the xiuzhe at the front panic for a beat, their charge slightly pausing.
At the same time, the two combat units that had been retreating suddenly reversed direction, six
sword energies leaving their hands!
Another three unlucky souls were hit.
Before they could respond, the three combat units that had been silently moving forward fifty
zhang did not hesitate to start a third wave of attack.
Nine sword energies sent out with full force turned into a net. The other side had charged too
fast, their group densely packed together. The results were astounding!
Five xiuzhe were killed!
The head of the other side changed expression. With one attack, the losses were three to twelve,
this made him slightly panic. The three waves of attack on the other side clearly had been
planned. It was like a tide, one wave after the other, not giving them any chance to think.

Expert!
He smelled danger, but what calmed him down was that the speed on both sides had slowed
down. The following battle would be prolonged combat. His side had the advantage of numbers
and a higher possibility of victory.
Charge and scatter them! Then hold on to them! Kill! He shouted, his voice ringing out. He
had confidence in his ningmai second stratum cultivation. Coldly snorting, he took his flying
sword, and entered the chaotic fray!
The distance between the two sides narrowed. No one had the space to charge.
Gongsun Cha did not move. There was a combat unit protecting him. Four people were standing
outside the battle, yet no one seemed to notice him.
Having seen the good results from the three section wave killing charge, his expression did not
move, but the hands hidden in his sleeves were tightly fisted! He had copied this from the
mysterious person in War Chess. However, the mysterious person was much more effective when
he used it. Gongsun Cha had suffered greatly under this maneuver, always collapsing when he
encountered it.
Even though it was a weaker version, it was enough to cause the enemy to suffer losses.
The scene was extremely chaotic, but he was already used to even worse scenes in War Chess.
His mind had never been as clear as now. He quickly found the head among the enemies.
His mind slightly moving, Ma Fan who seemed to be aimlessly swimming around started to
silently cover the other like a large bird.

Translator Ramblings: Zuo Mo finds something he can do. Gongsun Cha finally gets to
command living soldiers
Zuo Mo finds his way back to formations. He is essentially reverse-engineering the major ability
of the mo which other races do not possess which is the ability to absorb and purify ling energy.
This helps them survive in harsh and ling-lacking environments. Yao would not be hampered in
Little Mountain Jie at present but the xiuzhe would definitely die if the ling energy keeps on
decreasing.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Seventeen Killing Moves and Ma Fan

This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Two Hundred and Seventeen Killing Moves and Ma Fan
Magg Fan did not fly quickly and was very steady. Seeing the chaotic battle field slowly grow
larger in his vision, his mind slightly wandered.
Truthfully, he admired Gongsun Cha very much. This person that look even younger than him
was a beginner among beginners. It could be seen from the terrible and disorganized training at
the start. Ma Fan had assumed that his little life had been in danger now that he had landed in the
hands of a greenhorn and hadnt expected Gongsun Cha to quickly fulfill his role. The messy
training had quickly become neat and organized.
These days, everyone had shifted from their rebelliousness and terror induced submission, and
gradually showed true respect and compliance. Everyone had climbed over mountains of
corpses. They might never had heard of these methods before, but they could tell if it was useful
or not.
In a group like this, as long as you could continuously lead everyone to victory, and everyones
lives had some guarantees, no one would rebel.
Ma Fan was the first person to realize that the tactics Gongsun Cha had set up were useful.
Before everyone else had understood this, he had started to rigorously train until he could he
could meet Gongsun Chas demands.
In secret, everyone called Gongsun Cha Lil Miss Gongsun because he looked feminine and
delicate like a woman. This also included a portion of maliciousness and slander. No way around
it. They couldnt defeat him so they could only vent in private.
Of course, no one dared to say the name in front of him. Lil Miss might be feminine but he was
a vicious female.
Staring at the chaotic battle, the words that Gongsun Cha had keep on filling into his ears
appeared in Ma Fans mind.
You have to notice the distance between the enemys troop
You have to notice the offensive rhythm of the enemy after each strong attack, there
would be an extremely short time where their ling power cannot catch up, this is when the enemy
is the weakest
You have to notice the important targets of the enemy
You need to have battlefield awareness


All of this was extremely strange and unfamiliar to him.
Such a troublesome Lil Miss, Reflexively muttering, he already reached the border of the
battle.
Out of the corner of his eyes, he glanced at the leader of the other side. He was extremely eyeattracting, pressuring down a combat unit by himself. Ma Fan did not go immediately to give aid.
The three people were on the disadvantage, and seemed very bad off, but the three person
formation had not become messy, and they could support themselves for a while.
Just a this time, he noticed there were some people whose ling power was boiling. It was clearly
the early signal for strong sword moves being cast.
Usually, the stronger the sword move, the longer it took to prepare.
However, the combat unit they were facing evidently were also preparing a big move. No matter
which side, the xiuzhe all instinctively chose to distance themselves. The collision between great
moves were very strong, and could affect others.
A light flashed through Ma Fans eyes. Rather than retreat, he slowly neared the two sides.

Taste yes [Crimson Rainbow Sword]! A crimson sword light rose with a howl.
Ha ha, me too, [Great Ling Sword Axe]! A blue sword energy that was half sword and half axe
appeared and heavily sliced down!
[Bat Ghost Crying]! Seven or eight black sword energies shaped like bats made flapping
sounds as they drew out a strange curve and headed to the three people.
The three members of the combat unit did not panic, maintaining the Three Talent formation. At
the beginning of the battle, they had been panicked, but as they gradually familiarized
themselves with the wondrous energy connection unique to the Three Talent Formation, their
cooperation grew, and their confidence also grew.
The great moves of the other side did not make them lose focus.

Even usually, one-on-one, they were not afraid, much less now, when they had the aid of the
Three Talent Formation.
The leader of the three was Lei Peng. Before he was tamed by Lil Miss, this guy had been the
most vicious and rebellious of them all. Now that someone had ran in front of him and boasted,
he instantly got angry. His copper-bell sized eyes stared angrily, his fan-sized large hands
opening. Pointing at the three people in front of him, he hatefully spat out.
Get them!
The other two people were also full of murderous intent. Everyone had made their way through
rivers of blood. Who didnt have some fire?
Who didnt have killing moves?
One of them had a serious expression, his hands were covered in balls of blue light. The blue
lights became darker, and smaller until they were just covering his hands. But this blue light was
very concentrated and seemed like water.
The two hands punched out, two bright blue fist energies leaving his hands, growing as they
moved. A concentrated energy covered the landscape.
[Sky Wave Fist]!
Zong Ru was the only Dhyana of the group. To be able to establish himself in this group, he
naturally had his unique qualities. As he attacked, it instantly showed his exceptionalism.
At his side, his fellow that was called Nian Lu coldly snorted. He raised his hands up towards the
sky, his figure spinning on the spot. His speed increased until his figure became a blur. Above his
head, a lotus flower formed with astonishing speed. Flower bud, open, bloom!
The faint sword essence was like the sway of the lotus flower, making people uncontrollably
attracted to it. Suddenly, a snowy white lotus flower petal tipped in pink fell off. After that, the
flower petals fell off, one after the other, until all of them fell off.
One flower petal was one sword energy. Seven or eight white sword energies with a hint of pink,
eighty percent serenity, twenty percent enchantment, formed.
Nian Lus ultimate move [Lotus Flower Fall]!
Lei Peng naturally did not want to be left behind. He was holding a black sabre in his hands.
With both of his hands, he raised the black sabre above his head, and breathed.
A heavy strike!

A black sabre energy shot at the three opposite them. A vicious and brutal energy was like a
ferocious tiger opening its jaws.
[Abyss Beast Soul-Eating Sabre]!
Killing move against killing move!
Blue, red, white, black multi colored streams of energy flew everywhere. The faceoff
between six ningmai had caused the region between the two sides to become turbulent and
distorted with ling power . No one dared to near. If they were sucked in, even their bodies may
not remain.
Lei Peng and the two wavered slightly. Of the opposing three, two had began bleeding from their
mouths and noses.
Without a doubt, Lei Peng and the others had slightly won.
A sabre xiu, a sword xiu, a Dhyana xiu, this kind of combination was unique among the forty
people.

The faces of the enemy three were uncertain, and a desire to retreat began rising.
This kind of full force collision did not have any technique. The difference in strength could be
easily seen.
The xiuzhe with the [Crimson Rainbow Sword] moved his eyes. Since their side had more
people, why should the three of them take the risk? He was just going to call for his fellow to
come over when he had a feeling in his heart!
He couldnt help but turn his head.
A person, carried by countless flickering images, silently appeared beside him.
Ambush!
His expression changed. Just as he was going to speak, the voice that reached his mouth was
shoved back by the afterimages that filled his vision.

A flying sword hit his ling armor without a sound.


Destructive ling power furiously flooded his body.
[Illusory Shadowless Sword Of Destruction]!
The fourth-grade ling armor on his body was like paper, instantly breaking into pieces. It was as
if he was hit directly with a large hammer, his body flying like a sandbag towards the other
xiuzhe!
This xiuzhe changed expression and wanted to catch his fellow.
Careful!
Before he finished, under the body of his fellow that was flying over, a silent light flashed. When
he could respond, a flying sword that gave off no light was three zhang away from him.
Damn it!
He hurriedly put up his flying sword.
The swords impacted, ding, a small sound of collision.
His body shook, the blood in his face suddenly leaving his face. His eyes were full of disbelief,
his eyes slowly becoming empty.
The remaining xiuzhe was also pale, and wanted to retreat.
Pew!
A white sword energy that had a hint of pink at the tip passed through his chest. His pupils
suddenly expanded. He saw the smear of cold smile at the corner of Nian Lu opposite him.

Ma Fans ambush had shocked the entire field. He had successfully bought time for the Lei
Pengs group to breath. Nian Lu had made an ambush, and the panicked enemy had fallen.
Ma Fan suppressed the roiling of the ling power inside his body. Having continuously cast
[Illusory Shadowless Sword of Destruction] twice while flying at high speed, he couldnt help

but feel a lack of strength. He didnt go to see if the other had lived or not, hurriedly starting his
illusory movement method and disappeared.
From the collision of the two sides killing moves, to the three people losing their lives, the
sudden change shocked many people. Ma Fan took the chance to escape.
His illusory movement method was most skilled at confusing the enemy. The more chaotic the
battle, the more beneficial it was to him.
Ma Fans entry slowly caused the balance of battle to tilt towards their side. The monstrous
training regime of the past while had started to show its power. The combat units started to help
cover and aid each other.
Everyone slowly became more used to cooperating with Ma Fan.
The more tense the situation, the more advantageous it was for Ma Fan to attack. He was
accurate each time. Without knowing it, the advantage grew on their side.

Bao De felt that this fight today was terrible. Their side clearly had the advantage in numbers,
but as they fought, they grew more tired. He felt as though they had entered quicksand and were
unable to use their strength.
It wasnt evident in the beginning, but as they fought, the feeling of weakness became even more
clear.
The other side was three people, all clearly ningmai first stratum, but they managed to stop him.
The other sides tactics were very soft, not daring to face him straight on. He felt he wanted to
spit blood.
Every time he was going to defeat the three, that person who came out of nowhere would come
and disturb him, making his rhythm pause.
Because of this pause, the advantage he had managed to build up would disappear and he had to
start from the beginning.
After fighting for so long, he saw the hints. The three were cooperating very well. One offensive,
one distracting, and one defensive, and the offensive and defensive would frequently change
positions. At the beginning, he had assumed he could quickly get rid of the enemy, but they had

managed to stand up until now. He felt quite embarrassed, and his attacks grew stronger, but he
hadnt assumed it got more annoying the more he fought!
Other than the three he was facing, he still had to watch out for the annoying guy that appeared
out of nowhere and was as irritating as a fly.
He dared to disdain the three in front of him, but didnt dare to underestimate Ma Fan.
That guy was ningmai second stratum!
F*** it, this was no way to fight!
Translator Ramblings: This is the first chapter that Zuo Mo doesnt appear. A blow-by-blow
accounting of a fight wont happen frequently in this story but this one was probably because
Fang Xiang wanted to highlight the changes in the people and their shift in perspective as well as
what Lil Miss is doing. Gongsun Cha is an important character for Fang Xiang and giving side
characters development can be difficult if the author just sticks exclusively to the point of view
of the protagonist and his area of influence.
The Three Talent Formation in this chapter is just a triangle with each person at the corners who
then move around in sync in predetermined steps. However, it is actually the name of a true
battle formation used during the Ming Dynasty. See the baidu page. It was used because it could
increase firepower and decrease damage at the same time.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Eighteen Spoils of Victory
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, Brian, and warlord212.
Chapter Two Hundred and Eighteen Spoils of Victory
The entire battle gradually lost meaning.
Seeing that their own side was at a disadvantage, the leader did not hesitate to find a solution
surrender!
With a rattle, everyone surrendered. Gongsun Chas face was shocked but the other xiuzhe
looked as if this was completely normal.
What would they do if they didnt surrender? Escape? In the present Little Mountain jie, unless
they were jindan, any xiuzhe would be targeted if they were alone. Fight to the death? Then the
group would be crippled. A crippled group either would be killed or swallowed by someone else.

Surrendering was a loss of face, but at least they were not losing their lives.
This leader long knew the importance of this. Moreover, this group clearly did not have many
people but were very strong. Rather than being swallowed by another group, it was better to go
with this kind of group. Their days would be better. These days, werent people just looking for a
way to survive in Little Mountain Jie?
This loud and noisy battle ended like this.

When Zuo Mo saw Gongsun Cha come back with a large group of captives, he was very
shocked. As expected of a crazy battle-maniac. This efficiency was frightening! Before he could
be happy, when he saw the thirty something captives, he grimaced inside.
His consciousness would have to bleed greatly again

Bao De was the head of this group. When he heard the head of the other side was going to set in
jinzhi in his body he couldnt help but shudder. Compared to those with no sect, he had come out
of a little sect and knew more things than normal people.
Wasnt it only jindan that could set down jinzhi? Was there a jindan elder here?
His heart became scared. In Little Mountain Jie, jindan were an invincible existence. Then he
became puzzled. If jindan wanted to gather people, then he only needed to stand in the open and
people would flock to him. There was no need to engage in fighting; everyone would have
already surrendered.
But when Zuo Mo appeared in front of him, he was stunned.
The person putting down the jinzhi was a guy that had just broke through to ningmai first
stratum! He was instantly discontent. Jinzhi meant that his little life was on that persons hands.
If he did not comply, the gentlest punishment was his cultivation would decrease, the most
serious would be the destruction of his soul.

His little life was grasped within the hands of a guy that just broke through to ningmai?
However, he also knew his present situation. He didnt understand. Was there someone behind
this guy who supported him? Otherwise, why would so many people that were stronger than him
obey him? He thought inside but he didnt dare to show the discontent on his face.
No way about it. The losers could not be brave. Becoming other peoples prisoners, they didnt
dare to have any other thoughts. When he saw that Gongsun Cha who was standing silently by
the side with a light and soft smile, he instantly discarded all his thoughts.

Zuo Mo was very familiar with jinzhi now. Quickly, all thirty peoples lives were in his hands.
However, after putting down thirty jinzhi, he lost a lot of energy, looking somewhat drooping.
How many people died? Zuo Mo asked.
Twelve, all the zhuji died. Gongsun Chas mood wasnt good. Even though they had achieved
victory, and the primary backbone was not damaged, but he was not satisfied with this result.
Zuo Mo sighed, his mood slightly down.
At least we won, Gongsun Cha didnt have much confidence when he said this.
The mood became slightly heavy. The troubled world was like a copper cauldron, no one could
escape. Zuo Mo decided to change the topic.
Did you find ling grains?
No, Gongsun Cha shook his head.
Zuo Mo almost spat blood. Originally, he wanted this group to use battle to feed battle, to steal
ling grains from other people to lighten his load. Who could have thought that they had come
back with thirty something people but no ling grains. He had just expended large amounts of
consciousness and now had to care of thirty something more mouths.
He had really lost!

Arent there any gains you made? Zuo Mo was like a tomato after the frost, as he asked
weakly.
Weve gotten some items. But I dont really understand their functions, so Shixiong can pick,
Gongsun Cha blinked his plum flower sized eyes that sparkled as he said innocently.
From the numbers, Gongsun Cha had gotten many things. Piled up together, it was a little
mountain.
Flying swords, talismans, jade scrolls, and materials. They all dazzled the eyes.
Zuo Mo glanced and was quite surprised. The great majority were not worth anything, but there
were some good ones. This had been the collections of ningmai xiuzhe. They had some good
items.
Zuo Mos eyes were very experienced and acted quickly. After flipping and picking, he divided
the little mountain into several piles.
He pointed at a pile of flying swords and talismans, saying, This batch isnt bad. Go and divide
it among them. Only if they are properly equipped can their battle strength increase.
Gongsun Cha was full of admiration. Shixiong was really someone who could do great things.
He had followed Shixiong for this long, and his eyes were not as experienced as Shixiong; but he
could generally detect the quality. The flying swords and talismans in this piles were all pretty
good. If they could be sold, that would be an enormous sum of jingshi. He hadnt expected
Shixiong to take it out.
This generosity, this breadth of mind
To get the horse to run, we have to feed the horse grass, Zuo Mo said meaningfully.
The admiration in Gongsun Chas heart reached a peak. It seemed that he was still too new. His
level was not enough compared to Shixiong!
Think of it as wages. They have to put their lives up. It wont be right if they do not get
anything, Zuo Mo smacked his lips, and rubbed his chin, In any case, this batch cant be turned
to jingshi and will only take up space.
When Gongsun Cha heard the last part, all the admiration instantly dissipated.
This was more like Shixiong
For some reason, he found he had relaxed; his entire body easing itself of tension.

Oh, right, Zuo Mo picked out a jade scroll from the piles of jade scrolls, Theres not much in
this batch of jade scrolls other than this one. This one has some content related to battle generals.
You take it to use as reference.
A bit of relation to battle generals? Gongsun Cha instantly became excited and took the jade
scroll.
The materials are useful, Zuo Mo said to himself as he looked at the little piles in front of him.
The rest can only be given to Lil Pagoda. We can store the jade scrolls, open them to all of
them for free? Oh, they dont take up space.
Speaking of jade scrolls, he suddenly remembered something, I have a fifth-grade movement
method here. I probably wont have the time to practice it. Give it to someone to use. The
stronger they are, the safer we are. As to how to divide it, you can think.
Okay! Gongsun Cha was slightly surprised that Shixiong could take out a fifth-grade
movement method but did not hesitate in nodding. He agreed with Shixiongs words.
After dividing up the spoils, Zuo Mo told Gongsun Cha again to look for yin fiend grounds.
Everyone knew that time was tight and didnt waste words. Gongsun Cha took the pile of
talismans and flying swords and left.

Zuo Mo summoned Lil Pagoda, and pointed at the pile of talismans and flying swords as he took
up a jade scroll to read.
This jade scroll was the only thing that he was interested in of this entire batch of spoils. There
wasnt much high level content in the jade scroll. What it was were some basic methods of
making puppets. Now that Zuo Mo was somewhat skilled in formations, it was much easier to
learn about puppets, and it wasnt hard to read.
He had never encountered puppets before. Seeing them now, he found them novel. There were
several places that were very unique. To his joy, he found that the puppets could solve the
problem of his manpower.
Low level puppets did not have intelligence and could only accept the simplest and most basic
commands. Those high level puppets were not much different than people. puppets that were
forged with secret methods were not breakable, were as fast as the wind, and functioned as the
best subordinates.

No wonder so many people liked puppets.


Of course, these subordinate type puppets were very hard to forge. But Zuo Mo did not think of
those puppets. His eyes were set on the easily made low level puppets.
These guys didnt have any great use, but they could barely manage to do some rough and
menial labor.
He suddenly thought of an idea. With Little Mountain Jie so chaotic right now, the population
drastically decreasing, the mines that had existed before wouldnt have grown feet! The ling
veins would have been corroded, but what about the ore veins?
He became more excited the more he thought, his brain extremely clear. Now that it was this
chaotic, there was no one that was willing to spend time mining. If the ore veins were not
infected and did not belong to anyone, and he went to mine them, no one would care. As for
manpower, he could use puppets!
He suppressed the excitement in his heart and started to calculate.
It was not very hard to make the simplest puppet, and what it consumed were very low level
materials. He had the power to make them.
Deep in thought, Zuo Mo did not notice Lil Pagoda greedily sucking in talismans and flying
swords.
When the last talisman flew inside Lil Pagodas body, Lil Pagoda suddenly stopped moving.

Rewards based on achievements? Lei Peng thought he had heard it wrong, laughing scornfully.
Dont dream. Food thats been swallowed, who would throw it back up? Even more, our group
has jinzhi, who wouldnt listen? Who would be so dumb to spend on us?
Nian Lu said in a rush, But its true. Happening this afternoon! Supposedly, there is a fifthgrade movement method.
Ha ha! Youre killing me! Lei Peng pointed at Nian Lu and then turned to say to Zong Ru.
Listen! Fifth-grade movement method! My ass! Fifth-grade movement methods are not lettuce,
and given easily to us sheep. I say, Old Nian, you should understand the market. A fifth-grade

movement method, thats enough for those f***ers at Clear Sky Sect to let you pass. This kind of
good thing, people will give it to you for free?
Zong Ru said cross legged like an old monk in meditation, dignified. He pretended to not listen.
Dhyana xiu were very rare in Little Mountain Jie. They cultivated the body and their abhinna.
What Zong Ru cultivated was not some high level dhyana scripture, and so he had not formed an
abhinna yet. However, his cultivation was rock solid.
He usually had few words, his personality silent and calm. In battle, he was like a whole other
person, abnormally ferocious.
The three of them all had different personalities. Lei Peng was fiery like a fire, similar to a
bandit. Nian Lu was of a lively temperament, optimistic and easygoing.
Now that Lei Peng said this, Nian Lu felt disbelieve rise as well. Fifth-grade movement method,
it was enough to become the ultimate spell for a little sect. Who would give something like this
for free?
Fortunately, time did not pass slowly. It quickly reached noon.
All the people, including the thirty that had just been captured were gathered together.
Everyone knew Lil Miss definitely had important things to announce.
Translator Ramblings: Gongsun Chas respect for Zuo Mo flew up into the sky and bombed back
down.
Bao De represents his fellows in being discontent at being led by someone less powerful in
cultivation. However, even if it one on one, Zuo Mo will probably be able to beat him.
I totally mangled the translation but I have no idea what is another way of saying you get
rewarded based on how much service you did/ how many people you killed.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Nineteen Rewards Conference
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Two Hundred and Nineteen Rewards Conference

In secret, whenever everyone ever discussed Lil Misss feminine and delicate face, they couldnt
help but be slightly scornful of it. However, when Lil Miss was sitting in front of them,
everyone couldnt help but straighten their spines, their eyes straight forward.
People like Lei Peng, who had already spent some time under Lil Miss command,had
experience of what to do. In front of Lil Miss, it was best for their eyes to look at their nose,
their nose to be pointed at their heart. Do not go looking at Lil Miss eyes. You would always
find they were freezing.
Reward based on performance, Lil Miss voice was not loud and was feminine as usual.
Lei Peng stilled. Had Old Nian been speaking the truth? There were really going to reward based
on performance? His heart quickened and he couldnt help but move his body.
It wasnt just him. Everyone could not disguise the joy on their faces. There were jinzhi in their
bodies, so their lives were in Zuo Mos hands. They had originally assumed that they would be
cannon fodder, and the thought had never crossed their minds that they would be rewarded.
Lets start. Everyones expression landed in Gongsun Chas eyes. His heart was very clear, the
corners of his mouth rising. He decided to throw out a heavy bomb at the beginning, This is a
fifth-grade movement method. Boss decided to take it out as a reward.
Vroom!
Everyones eyes turned to stare at the jade scroll in Lil Miss hands. So hot they almost melted
the jade scroll. The temperature in the room instantly rose.
Fifth-grade movement method! That was fifth-grade.
Any spell, when it reached fifth-grade, the value was not comparable. No matter if it was in Sky
Moon Jie, or in Little Mountain Jie, only core disciples could cultivate fourth-grade spells. This
was an unwritten rule. And fifth-grade spells? The majority of sects did not possess a fifth-grade
spell.
Now a fifth-grade movement method was in front of them, a place they could touch.
Breathing was rushed in the room. Without knowing it, excitement climbed onto everyones
faces. If it wasnt for the jinzhi, half of the people would definitely go up and steal.
Gongsun Cha was very satisfied with everyones performance. Fair reward and punishment was
a governance that every stable troop must have. Gongsun Cha was not worried this crowd of
brutes would betray, but it had been a problem for him to increase their motivation.

This is a intermediate fourth-grade flying sword, called Black Lock, pure in quality, it is slightly
oriented towards the water element. It is the best flying sword of this rewards conference.
The flying sword was about one chi long, the body narrow and black, glistening with a blue light.
Once it was taken out, a slightly sword essence rippled like waves across the entire room.
Hiss!
Inhales sounded below. This group all had good eyes. The quality of the Black Lock sword was
not average.
Intermediate Fourth-grade!
Most of these xiuzhe were in ningmai, but only five or so of them had fourth-grade flying
swords, and of those people, all their flying swords were low fourth-grade flying swords.
This Nine Dawn Ling Armor, intermediate fourth-grade, it is the best protective talisman of this
conference. Wood element, the ling armor has four formations, [Vitality], [Evil Removing],
[Tranquil Mind], and [Illusion Break]. In places rich with wood element power, it can
automatically absorb wood element power to repair the ling armor.
Gulp.
As they swallowed, everyone stared at the ling armor. This was something good! If they had this
ling armor, it was like getting half of a life.
It was like Gongsun Cha did not notice everyones eyes. One by one, he introduced all the
talismans and flying swords.
In the room, the heavy sound of breathing was like thunder. Everyones faces were red and
excited. Many people had pulled open their clothing, a layer of sweat on their foreheads.
However, they did not detect it, their eyes tightly locked on the talismans and flying swords in
front of Gongsun Cha.
The light given off by the talismans and flying swords merged and reflected off each persons
eyes.
Lei Pengs forehead was full of sweat. His throat was dry, his copper-bell like eyes staring wide,
afraid he would miss a talisman. When the last talisman was finished being introduced, his heart
finally rested. Reflexively, he released a breath.
His ears suddenly heard the sound of breathing. He jumped in fright at his loud breathing.

It was over! If he angered Lil Miss, it would be terrible! He grimaced at the first thought that
came into his head.
But when he saw the breathing of the people around him, he managed to realize that it wasnt
just the sound of his own breathing, but everyone breathing out together. The slightly sounds of
breathing, under such silent environments, would stand out so clearly.
The room quickly became silent, extremely silent, everyones hearts rose again.
Everyone knew what was coming next was the most important!
There were only this many prizes, who would get it? How would it be divided? There was a lot
involved was this. That would determine what landed on their own hands was good or trash.
Those with the most achievements will pick first, one apiece. Lil Miss was extremely clear in
this silent environment where the drop of a pin could be heard. Ma Fan is first.
A blush suddenly rose on Ma Fans face like he had been drinking. In the admiring and jealous
eyes of everyone else, he stood up and did not hesitate to pick the fifth-grade movement method.
Even though everyone had mostly guessed already, but they couldnt help but have disappointed
expressions. One of those was Lei Peng.
Fifth-grade movement method!
Seeing it slink away in front of his eyes, this feeling wasnt just terrible!
But that was just jealousy. No one could say anything to Ma Fan picking first. The effect that Ma
Fan had in this battle could not have been done by anyone else.
Before everyone had digested the disappointment from the fifth-grade movement method being
picked away, Lil Miss opened again, Lei Peng, Zong Ru, Nian Lu, your group is up. You can
pick one fourth-grade, two third-grade.
Lei Pengs head rang, and then blanked.
It was his turn
He didnt know how he stood up. Nian Lu and Zong Rus faces were also full of disbelief. It was
like a dream. Even Zong Ru, the most composed of the three, didnt managed to keep his
composure.
The three people looked at each other. After a while, they found it hard to decide who would get
the fourth-grade talisman.

Seeing the situation, Gongsun Cha decided to decide for them. Straws, set down the order, and
take turns in the future.
This method was very fair. No one had an objection.
The sweat on Lei Pengs forehead grew even more dense, his heartbeat racing because he drew
first. The second was Zong Ru, the third was Nian Lu.
He really was shameful, couldnt even calm down! He criticized himself.
But he was not slow in picking. He did not hesitate in picking the Nine Dawn ling armor. Sighs
rose in the surroundings. Clearly, there were several that wanted this ling armor. For some
reason, when he heard the sighs, Lei Peng felt every pore of him was in pleasure, and extremely
smug. He instantly put on the ling armor.
Zong Ru picked upper third-grade vambraces, and Nian Lu picked an upper third-grade boots.
Even though they didnt pick something fourth-grade, these two were also very good among the
third-grade, the two people were unable to keep their hands off.
Gongsun Cha measured achievement based on combat unit. Each combat unit could pick one
fourth-grade item, and two third-grade. The fourth-grade items were quickly divided. Those
ranked behind didnt even get one, and could only stare.
But everyone basically got one talisman.
As to the xiuzhe like Bao De who had just turned from captive, they could only stare. Gongsun
Cha didnt plan on rewarding them. The remaining talismans were put to be used as rewards for
the groups that were exceptional in training.
Gongsun Cha also clearly stated that once the reward was given, it was the persons personal
property. Other people could not take it. Like the fifth-grade movement method. Ma Fan picked
it, so it could not be given to someone else. If anyone else wanted to learn, they had to ask Ma
Fan. As to how to pass it on, or whether to pass it on, that was Ma Fans business.
No matter if it was Zuo Mo, or Gongsun Cha, they would never have predicted the effect this
rewards conference would have.

Gongsun Cha still supervised the people in training. The last battle had revealed many
insufficiencies. The three section wave killing charge, if it was a well-trained troop, if it was his
mysterious opponent, they would only need to use it once to destroy the enemy.
He hadnt just been unable to destroy the enemy, but had sunk into prolonged fighting. This
made Gongsun Cha who usually demanded highly of himself very dissatisfied.
Lil Miss was dissatisfied so everyone didnt have good days.
However, what Gongsun Cha was puzzled by was just how unexpected these people were in
training. Everyone seemed to have been shot up with chicken blood, howling as they furiously
trained.
And when Gongsun Cha fulfilled his promise by rewarding the talismans to the group that had
finished training, he found to his shock that they completely did not need his supervision.
There was not a novice among this group of people. They all knew the importance of talismans.
Who would dislike having one more talisman? On the battlefield, one more talisman was one
more guarantee on their own life. There was no danger of dying in training. This kind of good
matter, if it was in the past, everyone would distain to attend, but in the cruel Little Mountain Jie
of the present, no one had heard of it.
No one fell behind.
Not having gotten any ling grains, and having some more mouths to feed, the pressure of Zuo
Mo to supply ling grains instantly increased, especially in the recent days where this group had
suddenly started to furiously train for some reason. The consumption of ling grains multiplied.
Zuo Mo felt the pressure multiply. He put one hundred and twenty percent of his effort into
studying the mo matrix day and night.
Once he had an idea, he would immediately try it out, not caring for the consumption of
materials. Seeing the amount of ling grains decrease, he felt even more pressured. His progress
was not bad. He had eliminated half of the useless constructs. Less than one third of the
constructs were remaining.
But this one third included more than seventy formation-like constructs.
Zuo Mo did not have the time to do theoretical analyses. The time was tight. He decided to use
the stupidest and most effective method.
Try one by one!
He started to crazily try one formation after another.

In the span of a few days, his room was full of failed products like a little mountain.
Not having closed his eyes for seven days and nights, he didnt even meditate. When his ling
power was used up, he would grasp a jingshi to absorb ling power.
He looked quite fragile. After seven days and nights, even if his spiritual power had reached the
stage of manifestation, he had reached a limit.
However, Zuo Mo forgot all the labor, all the exhaustion.
He dazedly looked at a peerlessly ugly thing on his hands!
Translator Ramblings: Mad scientist Zuo Mo is back! Gongsun Cha really wants to motivate his
soldiers to train hard and Ma Fan is the teachers pet.
Do you guys ever go back to read previous chapters of this story? Im still going to revise the
beginning chapters anyways but Im very curious if any of you ever re-read.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Twenty The Fatal Rotten Metal Silver
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, Brian and warlord212.
Chapter Two Hundred and Twenty The Fatal Rotten Metal Silver
Bao De really had his vision broadened in these past days.
The troop in front of him was different than any other that he had been a part of before. Three
people to each squad, that Three Talent Formation, that was a pleasure and a pain, enough ling
grains, and there were rewards for the people placed under jinzhi
He looked at these old-timers who were now like children fighting to be first. There was no
conspiracy, everything was done in broad daylight, it was so simple it could not be any more
straightforward, but the troop had transformed by such a direct method.
The longer he stayed, the more he felt just how powerful the boss of this group was. It wasnt a
power that people could see at a simple glance, but a calm power hidden behind fog and mist.
Even though everyone was afraid of Lil Miss, Bao De had been a leader; and he could tell who
was truly in charge.
With such finesse, he wouldnt be an ordinary person in the future. To follow such a boss, the
future wouldnt be too hard.

But Boss was a little guy around twenty something that had just entered ningmai first stratum
the luck
No matter how many thoughts swirled in Bao Des mind, his training amount would not lessen
compared to the rest. His past identity as the leader and his ningmai second stratum cultivation
did not give him any privileges. What made him feel helpless and depressed was the fact the
other two people in his little troop were furiously training.
It was just a few talismans; was it worth all this? Having been a leader, Bao De naturally
wouldnt care about just third-grade talismans.
Yet he did not want to get into conflict with his teammates, due to dragging them down, and had
to furiously train as well. There was no way around it. Lil Miss rewards were based on combat
units, other than being like Ma Fan who was a combat unit on his own. Adding on that Lil Miss
was staring from the side, he did not dare to slack.
Do not offend Lil Miss in any circumstance.
This was the most widespread phrase in the camp.
However, hm wasnt that Boss? Bao De saw Boss holding a strange object and walk into
the camp out of the corner of his eye.
He secretly paid attention. However, with his distraction, the Three Talent Formation that had
been flowing smoothly came to an abrupt halt. With the pause, the rhythm of the entire team was
disturbed. The three people had to stop. Seeing the dissatisfaction in the two peoples eyes, Bao
De hurriedly apologized. He could offend anyone except his teammates. Otherwise, he wouldnt
even know how he died on the battlefield.

Gongsun Cha saw Zuo Mo hold something strange and couldnt help but ask in curiosity,
Shixiong, what is this?
Ling processing Zuo Mo stopped. He raised the ugly object in his hands in front of his
face. Uh, what should he call this?
It could barely be called a talisman. But there were many kinds of talismans. This thing, which
category did it belong to? Treasure box?

A strangely shaped box, the box was covered in holes and crack, patched with shapes of various
colors and sizes, which made it hard to look at.
Ling Processing Formation. Zuo Mo pondered and decided to change its shape for next time.
Otherwise, it would be hard to even name such an object.
A bit ugly, Gongsun Cha gave a fair review. Seeing the unfriendliness in Shixiongs eyes, he
hurriedly tried to move on, Whats the use of this?
Speaking of the use of this object, Zuo Mo couldnt help but be smug. Oh, not that much. It can
just process the ling power in the jingshi, and get rid of impurities.
Get rid of the impurities in the ling power of jingshi Gongsun Cha first stilled but he
quickly responded. His eyes suddenly widened, his voice unconsciously raising, Get rid of the
impurities in the ling power of jingshi?
Gongsun Shidis reaction made Zuo Mo even more proud, Exactly!
Gongsun Chas eyes lit up, his voice tinted with excitement, It can replace ling grains?
Exactly! Zuo Mo felt his body was unspeakably comfortable. He snickered. I tried already.
The effect is pretty good. Taking it here was to find someone to try it out.
Without another word, Gongsun Cha stood up, swept the people training, and saw Lei Peng and
the other two who had just finished. He beckoned, Lei Peng, you three come over.
Hearing the summons of Lil Miss, the three hurried over.
Gongsun Cha turned around and asked Zuo Mo, Shixiong, how do you use this?
Oh, put your hand on top of this, and start your scripture. Zuo Mo put his palms on the two
round formations on top of the box.
Gongsun Cha said to Lei Peng, You try.
Oh, Lei Peng said with confusion. He didnt understand what this garbage in front of him, but
he still complied in putting his hands inside the round formations and started his scripture.
Huh! Lei Peng gasped ling power!
A stream of ling power was absorbed through his palms and quickly flowed along his channels.
Such pure ling power! He was overjoyed. Such pure ling power, it meant that he didnt have to
spend so much energy on processing ling power! Endless ling power burrowed through his palms
into his body. In a quick while, he felt the empty channels inside his body feel full.

Only now did he suddenly realize the use of this thing!


Why was Little Mountain Jie so terrible right now?
The most important reason was that the ling energy in the air had become thin, so thin that it
could not be absorbed into the bodies of xiuzhe.
Everyone knew that the ling power of xiuzhe was obtained from the world of nature. The ling
energy in the air was the most important source. After these ling energy were taken into the body,
they were processed and turned to even purer ling power to be stored in the channels of the
xiuzhe. The ling energy becoming extremely thin in Little Mountain Jie meant that the biggest
source of ling energy for xiuzhe had been cut off.
Xiuzhe were forced to find other ways, like consuming ling grains. The ling power contained in
the ling grains were easy to absorb, and were not harmful. The jingshi that people usually used
contained more ling power than ling grains, but due to the impurities in the ling power of jingshi
were more domineering than the impurities of the ling energy of the air, it was much harder to
absorb. If it was used in the long term, it would damage the body.
Only some large sects had secret methods to resolve the impurities in the jingshi.
Secret method
When Lei Pengs hands left the box, his mind seemed to be wandering, his expression slightly
strange.
Nian Lu looked in puzzlement at Lei Peng, it was very rare to see Big Peng have this expression.
He couldnt help but look again at that extremely strange and hideous box. This garbage had a
use?
When his hands left the box, his expression was also strange, muttering something continuously
in his mouth like he had seen a ghost.
After Zong Ru tried, his expression could not disguise his shock.
No matter what waves had been stirred up in the three people, Zuo Mo and Gongsun Cha were
very satisfied with the result of the experiment. The remainder was to slightly modify the
appearance. It really was too ugly, even Zuo Mo himself found it hard to tolerate.
Gongsun Chas sparkling eyes tightly locked on the extremely ugly box. He was very clear what
this object meant for them! As long as they had this, there was one less chain that was on their
necks!

In the present Little Mountain Jie, the price of ling grains had been inflated to a ridiculous price.
In reverse, due to the lack of goods, the utility of jingshi was much less. It was common to see
jingshi that had been thrown away. The rare ling grains had become the most common currency
in Little Mountain Jie.
But there is a problem.
Zuo Mos words pulled Gongsun Cha back. He jumped, What problem?
If we are producing in large quantities, we need lots of Rotten Metal silver, Zuo Mos tone was
slightly bitter, I still have some, but it is just enough to make a few.
Gongsun Cha stilled, and thought it was unfortunate. He hurriedly asked, Is this Rotten Metal
silver very rare?
It is a very common third-grade material. Zuo Mo spread his hands. Ive used a lot so theres
not much left.
This problem Gongsun Cha thought and then raised his hands, indicating for everyone to
gather.
Everyone stopped their training, looked at each other, before gathering. Their expressions were
all puzzled. Lil Miss had never interrupted their training before.
Who knows where there is Rotten Metal silver? Gongsun Cha asked.
Many xiuzhe were confused. What was Rotten Metal silver?
Suddenly, a person raised their hands, I know. That person was Bao De.
Where? Gongsun Cha stared at Bao De.
When he met Lil Miss sharp eyes, a cold sweat ran down Bao Des body. However, he had been
a leader before, and suppressed the shock inside, pretending to be calm. This one doesnt know
about the finished product, but this one knows a Rotten Metal silver mine.
Mine! Zuo Mos eyes brightened. Where?
Bao De swallowed and obediently responded, A place about three hundred li from here, called
Stone Mountain Beach. Before, it was the location for a sect of Spell Sword Sect, now its
possessed by a group.

Zuo Mo turned to look at Gongsun Cha. Gongsun Cha instantly understood what he meant. He
wanted the mine. Gongsun Cha was slightly puzzled. Even if they had the mine, there was no
one to do the mining. However, since Shixiong said he wanted it, then it meant he had a way.
He turned to stare at Bao De. How many people are there? What are their origins?
Bao De hurriedly said. About sixty or so people. The head, Xie Shan, is vicious and cruel.
Ningmai third stratum. His subordinates are all above ningmai. They heard that Spell Sword Sect
had ling grains, so they massacred Spell Sword Sect and took over Stone Mountain Beach.
He then carefully said, If Boss wants it, you can buy it at very low cost from Xie Shans hands.
This one has some relationship with him
No need, Gongsun Cha waved his hands, and then said, Continue training, to hurry the
people away to cultivate. Bao Des words were choked up in his throat. However, he perceptively
went to train.
What do you plan on doing? Zuo Mo asked in curiosity.
He knew that Shidi definitely had an idea.
We can beat them until they are crippled, Gongsun Cha said unconcernedly. There is no
reason to give them any jingshi. They want to take food from our mouths, hmph hmph!
Zuo Mo shook his head helplessly. Gongsun Shidis battle mania was acting up again!
Xie Shans group was really pitiful!
He couldnt help but feel sympathy, but when the words reached his own mouth the only thing
that came out was, Hurry!

Translator Ramblings: Incremental progress. Lacking supplies is a rational event after being a
mad scientist for a week.
Thank you all for your comments about my question. Its motivating to hear what you guys say.
There was a very wide range of response from reading it, to reading some parts, to not reading. I
would rather translate than edit which is why edits are so slow.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Twenty One What Is Pu Yao Doing?

This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, warlord212, and Brian.
Chapter Two Hundred and Twenty One What Is Pu Yao Doing?
Zuo Mo quickly made the new product. Compared to the broken box, the new product was like a
piece of art.
It was a meditation mat woven from Black Morning Glory, pure black and smooth to the touch.
Hair like strands of rotten metal silver forming the formations were in exquisite and complex
patterns. If the mat was flipped over, there were five openings that jingzhi could be put in. Zuo
Mo had originally planning on making them even smaller to make it much easier to carry, but in
the end, he still decided to make them into meditation mats.
His technique of weaving mediation mats was very good.
The meditation mats were named Black Processing Meditation Mats. On the foundation of the
ling processing formations, he had added [Mind Concentration] and [Calm Heart] formations.
The effect of the black processing meditation mats drastically increased.
In one go, Zuo Mo had used all the rotten metal silver to make five black processing meditation
mats.
With the five black processing meditation mats both Zuo Mo and Gongsun Cha steadied their
heart. The five black processing meditation mats were not a lot, but if they were used in turns, it
could barely suffice.
After giving the five black processing meditation mats to Gongsun Cha, Zuo Mo didnt care
anymore.
His gains this time was not just the ling processing formation. The mo matrix on Zuo Mos body
was a low level mo matrix called the [Copper Rhinoceros Mo Matrix]. The biggest effect of this
matrix was that it could automatically temper his body. But even as one of the simplest mo
matrix, after being analyzed, it was found to be composed of hundreds of little micro formations.
Zuo Mo had never seen the majority of these micro formations and didnt know their effects. But
after this time, after finishing his analysis, and trying to forge, he had a direct understanding of
these unfamiliar formations.
Of the many formations of the Copper Rhinoceros Mo Matrix, there were three formations that
Zuo Mo felt were most useful: Ling Gathering Formation, Ling Processing Formation, and Body
Tempering Formation.

There had been a detailed introduction about the Ling Gathering Formation in the [Kun Lun
Preliminary Formations Jade Scroll]. But the ling gathering formation that Zuo Mo had found
this time was different than any kind of ling gathering formation he had ever seen.
It was even more outstanding at gathering ling. The entire formation naturally formed, and was
so exquisite that Zuo Mo had sighed countless times at the wonders of nature.
This isnt bad, Pu Yao appeared out of nowhere, and stared at the ling gather formation that
Zuo Mo was carving now.
Zuo Mo had long gotten used to Pu Yaos ghostly appearances. His hand didnt even tremble.
Of course I know it is a good thing. Zuo Mo did not disguise the pride he felt. He glanced at
Pu Yao out of the corner of his eyes. With ges skills! How can the things that ge makes not be
good things?
Oh, not bad, not bad. Finishing, Pu Yao faintly nodded before disappearing.
Zuo Mo, who had wanted to show off, felt his punch had missed and his chest felt suffocated.
However, he was also puzzled. Pu Yao, the guy who did not rise early unless there was
something to do, he had just ran over to say that this was not bad?
There was a problem!
Definitely was a problem!
Yet, Zuo Mo couldnt think of where the problem was. He did not think on it and instead started
to work with the ling gathering formation in front of him.
The ling gathering formation he had obtained from the [Copper Rhinoceros Mo Matrix] was
exquisite and tiny. The difficulty of carving it was slightly high but the use was also very broad.
He could carve this ling gathering formation on talismans and flying swords. Talismans and
flying swords could continuously gather ling energy from the air. Over time their intelligence
would grow. Any material, if they were put in places with thick ling energy, after being soaked in
ling energy, the qualities of the material would gradually be changed for the better.
Zuo Mo had an even more daring idea, to carve the ling gathering formation on the body like the
mo matrix. This way the body could constantly take in ling energy from the surroundings. Even
though the amount of ling energy taken in each day would be small, but after accumulating for
months and years, this amount would be terrifying.
This point, Zuo Mo who had a mo matrix had a direct experience. If it wasnt that his channels
were not able to store ling power before, he would have broken through to ningmai long ago.
Even now, his cultivation speed was far faster than normal xiuzhe.

The body tempering formation was using ling power to continuously temper the blood, flesh,
bones, and tendons of the body. Other than Dhyana xiu, other xiuzhe would rarely cultivate their
body, but in Zuo Mos experience, a strong body was not a bad thing. Even more, no time had to
be spent on this. It could automatically temper the body. Would anyone refuse?
Most importantly, the three formations that he had analyzed and separated out did not look
anything like a mo matrix. No one would connect it to a mo matrix. In these days where yaomo
were roaming about, this point was especially important.
After making the Black Processing Meditation Mats, Zuo Mo instantly felt the pressure decrease.
He hadnt found how to use the three micro formations right now. He already had the mo matrix
on his body. He didnt need the three formations.
He decided to cultivate his spiritual power.
According to Pu Yao, the road he was on was Star Spiritual cultivation. To Zuo Mo, Star
Spiritual cultivation was slightly novel. Pu Yaos suggestion was to first strengthen the ten stars,
and he had given the related methods. Zuo Mo only had to absorb star power, then feed it back to
the stars in his sea of consciousness to enlarge his source.
It was coincidentally night now. He walked out of the room, and raised his head to look at the
sky dotted with stars. He split his legs apart, forward and back, his body like a coiled snake
raising its head, his mouth slightly open, his hands pushing on the air by the side, making an
extremely strange and awkward pose.
His mind empty, the consciousness leaf hand spread its five fingers and faced the far stars like a
sunflower.
His breathing slowly disappeared. A thread of star light fell off the star above Zuo Mos head. It
was like a silver mist, thread after thread swallowed in Zuo Mos mouth.
Zuo Mo felt his mind have a mysterious connection with the star above his head. A vast and
ancient presence, from a deep and unknown place, crossing countless eras, and came to him. For
some reason, his heart felt moved.
A faint silver mist burrowed into Zuo Mos mouth, and effortlessly entered his channels. The
ling power in his channels were as quiet as a virgin, not having any enmity against the star power
that had been absorbed into his body. These threads of star power made one circuit around the
channels inside his body, and then entered the space between Zuo Mos brows like a sparrow
returning to its nest.
In the void above the sea of consciousness, thread after thread of silver mist entered a dim star.

Pu Yao looked at the star above his head and then took away his gaze. He opened his hand. On
his palm, there was a puddle of black water. In the center of the black water, there was a
miniature altar floating.
Nether Pool!
Finally formed! Pu Yao said to himself, Hopefully this will work.
Finishing, he threw the puddle of black water towards the ground. The hand sized Nether Pool
expanded in a blink to a black pond about one and a half mu large. On the altar floating in the
center, an enchanting black flame jumped.
Pu Yao flew onto the altar. The black fire surrounded him and burned silently. The black water in
the Nether Pool roiled as if there were countless serpents restlessly swimming under the surface.
Pu Yao closed his bloody pupil, his expression solemn. He suddenly shouted, Rise!
The altar under Pu Yaos feet suddenly had an astounding power to attract, all the black water in
the pool flooding towards the altar. The black water quickly flooded the altar, reaching up to Pu
Yaos feet. Pu Yao did not move, allowing the black water to creep up over his feet.
In a blink, the black water was above Pu Yaos head.
An enormous ball of black water stood on the altar. The scene seemed extremely unbalanced.
Compared to the black water ball, the altar was pitifully small, making one worried that the
enormous black water ball would crush the altar into pieces.
Yet this crude altar was as steady as rock.
The black water covering Pu Yao flowed restlessly and sped up.

An hour later, the speed the black water ball was spinning at was at an astounding level. The
hissing of high spinning speed was not sharp, but still frightening.

Having finished his cultivation, Zuo Mo noticed the abnormality in his sea of consciousness.
When he saw the scene in front of him, he was very shocked.
What was Pu Yao doing?
The spinning of the black water ball was still increasing. Zuo Mo sensitively noticed that as the
spinning increased, the black water ball started to show signs of instability.
What does this guy want to do? Zuo Mo muttered, not daring to move his eyes away.
The spinning speed of the black water ball was still increasing. The signs of instability were
increasing. The spherical black water ball was majorly distorted.
It seemed the situation wasnt good! Zuo Mo was slightly worried.
Just as the black water ball seemed to be on the verge of collapse, light suddenly shone on the
altar, and a heavy presence that was filled with vitality cover the sea of consciousness.
Wait a moment!
Zuo Mos eyes widened. He was too familiar with this presence!
Earth energy! This was earth energy!
Having been slightly worried, Zuo Mo instantly felt discontent. So this guy had stored the earth
energy he had drawn out in the altar. Thinking about the pain he had endured when the earth
energy had been drawn out, he gritted his teeth.
Other than anger, he became even more curious.
What was Pu Yao doing?
Clearly, the yao method that Pu Yao was conducting was something he had aimed for a long
time ago. No matter if it was the Nether Pool, or the earth energy that the other had drawn out,
Pu Yao had prepared for a long time. There were many methods in the world, especially the
methods of yaomo. Zuo Mo was too lazy to guess. He definitely would not guess it.
He decided to sit and wait for Pu Yao to finish.
With the help of the earth energy, the high speed spinning black water ball quickly stabilized.
The stable black water ball started to increase speed again.
The altar continuously provided earth energy. Zuo Mos eyes became even more unfriendly. How
much earth energy had the guy drawn out of him!

Suddenly, Zuo Mo raised his head and made a sound of surprise.


The ever accelerating black water ball suddenly started to change. With speed visible to the
naked eye, it quickly became clear. In the span of a few blinks, the black water ball became a
peerlessly clear water ball. He could clearly see Pu Yao inside the water ball.
Through the high speed water, Zuo Mo saw Pu Yao and instantly jumped in fright.
Pu Yaos entire body was as black as ink, the skin exposed to the outside looked as though it had
been dyed black. The two red crystals on his earlobes became even more alluring in contrast to
the deep black. Zuo Mo almost did not recognize Pu Yao. He started to become nervous pain
made its way onto Pu Yaos face.
Pu Yao had never shown this kind of expression before!
What was this guy doing? Did something happen? Zuo Mo thought uncertainly.
Earth energy continuously burrowed from the altar into the water ball and then into Pu Yaos
body. The earth energy seemed to be able to lessen Pu Yaos pain. Pu Yaos expression slowly
steadied.
The black on his body started to fade. The speed of the water ball slowly slowed.
When the black completely faded, the water ball also stopped.
Through the round ball of water, a handsome and enchanting male stood.
He opened the narrow right eye that was not covered by his hair.
Translator Ramblings: Zuo Mo learns from nature. Pu Yao makes an appearance after some time
away. Zuo Mo finally realizes that Pu Yaos been scheming against him for a long time.

and Twenty Two Lil Pagodas

Chapter Two Hundred and Twenty Two Lil Pagodas Levelling Up
Pu Yao stepped out of and off the altar, the water ball collapsing behind him.

His expression was not too good.


What did you do? Zuo Mo probed.
None of your business! Pu Yaos expression was dark, his tone unfriendly.
Seeing the sign, Zuo Mo knew that he couldnt get anything out of Pu Yao and went on his own
business. Ge was busy.
He started to make puppets for the Stone Door Beach that would soon enter his hands. He had
deep confidence in Gongsun Shidi who was a battle crazy maniac. He didnt know exactly where
the confidence came from. When he thought about it, Gongsun Shidi was just a beginner, but
Zuo Mos confidence in his did not lessen because of this.
Was this the a psychological shadow from having lost in War Chess several times, Zuo Mo
muttered in his heart.
There were many ways to make puppets. The most commonly seen and crude method was to use
paper and bamboo to make puppets. High level used things like corpses. After death, corpses
would be buried in the ground. Yin and corrosive energies would permeate for long times, and
birth some qualities. But in the eyes of large sects, they still avoided using corpses. However,
that was not difficult or hard to find. They only needed a suitable corpse, forge it for a bit, and
the power would be significant.
Most of the corpses used would rarely be human since no one wanted their own corpses to be
ruined after death. They were mostly animal corpses.
However, Zuo Mo didnt have the territory needed to find so many animal corpses. The corpse
method was not suited to him. He decided to make the simplest paper puppet, with bamboo as
the skeleton, the paper as the body. Paper puppets could not be greatly relied upon, but they
should manage in mining.
Zuo Mo decided to make one to try first.
He took out a second-grade Rain Consort Bamboo and second-grade yellow paper. After a while,
he finally folded out a paper person. This was the first time he had done this, so his skill was
crude, and the paper figure looked very awkward. Zuo Mo did not care. He took up the cinnabar
brush, and patiently painted characters on the paper person.
After a while, the body of the paper person was covered in squiggly characters. Zuo Mo put
down his pen in satisfaction.

Bending down and pushing it in front of his face, he opened his mouth and blew a breath full of
ling energy onto the paper person. The cinnabar seals suddenly lit up. The paper person creaked
as it moved, and swayed as it struggled to stand up.
The paper person was about one chi high. As it walked, the creak of the paper and bamboo was
endless. Zuo Mos mind moved. The paper person awkwardly raised both of its hands, making
him worry that it would scatter into pieces at any moment.
Woosh!
A belt of palm-sized yellow paper suddenly flew out of the arm of the paper person. Different
than the awkwardness of the paper person, the yellow paper that flew out was very nimble,
accurately grasping a fist-sized rock. The paper belt shrunk back with the rock and flew in front
of the paper person.
Interesting!
Zuo Mo looked at the paper puppet and found it more interesting. He controlled the paper puppet
to do all kinds of movements. After a while, the paper person plopped to the floor, and would not
get up no matter how Zuo Mo urged it. Zuo Mo hurriedly inspected the paper person and found
the ling energy of the paper person had been used up.
This couldnt work. If they stopped after just this little bit, the paper puppets didnt have any
value at all. He needed a way to increase the ling power of the paper puppets. Zuo Mo stared at
the paper puppet in front of him, thinking inside.
What he used were all low level materials. They could not store much ling power. This was a
problem with all low level puppets.
Zuo Mo suddenly thought of the jingshi talismans. His eyes lit up. Jingshi talismans used jingshi
as the source of ling power and could be used in the long term! After thinking it through, he felt
that this characteristic of jingshi talismans fit his needs.
He wasnt going to depend on these paper puppets to fight or kill. They were only doing some
hard labor. A steady source of ling power would completely fulfill their needs.
After thinking it through, he instantly made modifications. Inside the body of the paper puppet,
he used thin bamboo to weave a cage that jingshi could be held and then added new characters
along the bamboo skeleton.
The newly modified paper puppet was full of energy. After playing around for several hours, it
showed no signs of exhaustion.

However, Zuo Mo quickly found a new problem. The paper puppet did not know exhaustion, but
after so many hours, Zuo Mo was tired from commanding it. The new problem was very
important. These paper puppets were going to be used in mining. He couldnt always stay in the
mine and direct them. That wouldnt be as efficient as him mining by himself.
To get the paper puppets to mine by themselves and not need his control. If he could do this,
even if the efficiency was low, he would be able to offload the heavy duty of mining. In any
case, he could fold some more paper people!
But quickly, Zuo Mo realized that this problem was beyond his abilities. To make the puppet able
to perceive, that mean that the puppet needed to have intelligence. There were many ways to
create intelligence, but no matter which one, it wasnt something a ningmai could do.
Did this idea have to be discarded?
Zuo Mo furrowed his brows and though. There were more and more for him to do. It would be
best if he could split himself in two. Split in two
Like a bolt of lightning, he suddenly thought
Lil Pagoda
Something to replace him and connected to his mind, that was Lil Pagoda! Lil Pagoda was even
able to control a formation as complex and large as the [Skyring Moon Chime Formation], a
dozen or so puppets would be a piece of cake.
Right right! Lil Pagoda would be perfect as the supervisor. Zuo Mo instantly felt confidence.
Hm, where was Lil Pagoda?
Scanning the surroundings, he didnt find the shadow of Lil Pagoda. His mind moved, wanting
to communicate with Lil Pagoda, but found that the connection between him and Lil Pagoda
seemed to be blocked by an invisible force.
Zuo Mo jumped in fright and started to search.
He quickly found Lil Pagoda in the corner of the room. Lil Pagoda was silently floating in the
air, surrounded by an invisible pressure.
Silly Bird proudly walked its bird walk around Lil Pagoda in circles, occasionally revealing its
concern. Lil Black had climbed onto the ceiling, the two antennae on its head continuously
waving.
Seeing Silly Bird and Lil Black guarding Lil Pagoda, Zuo Mos heart felt very warmed.

However, the warmth was quickly smashed to pieces by the roll of eyes that Silly Bird had
thrown over. Silly Bird took back its gaze, raised up her bird head, and continued to calmly strut
its walk. Compared to the rebelliousness of Silly Bird, Lil Black was much warmer and
obedient, climbing down from the ceiling, climbing up Zuo Mos pants until it reached Zuo Mos
palm. The two antennae on its head waving and fawning.
So good! Zuo Mo purposefully took out a lingdan and put it in front of Lil Black. Lil Black
started to happily chomp.
Silly Bird responded with a roll of the eyes filled with scorn and disdain, completely unmoved.
Zuo Mo was very irritated. At this time, a five colored light suddenly appeared on Lil Pagodas
body.
Lil Pagoda was leveling up!
The displeasure in Zuo Mos heart instantly was thrown away, his eyes unblinking. Silly Bird
also stopped walking and stared at Lil Pagoda, the concern in her eyes completely undisguised.
Lil Pagoda was Zuo Mos soul-tethered talisman. In the recent past, Zuo Mo had fed it large
amounts of talismans and flying swords. Zuo Mo was not surprised it was leveling up. Zuo Mo
knew pitifully little about soul-tethered talismans, and the grades of normal talismans were
useless for Lil Pagoda.
In any case, he only needed to know that Lil Pagoda was becoming stronger, Zuo Mo comforted
himself.
Lil Pagoda had five levels, and the light released by each level was different. The five colored
lights merged and cycled. Inside the five colored lights, Lil Pagoda spun, the lights becoming
even brighter. In a while, Lil Pagoda was covered in the blinding five colored light, and was
unable to be seen.
The five balls of colored light dimmed and brightened like it was breathing. Reflecting off Zuo
Mos face, it was possible to see the nervousness in his eyes.
This leveling up, what change would happen to Lil Pagoda?
After several cycles, the five colored ball steadied. Zuo Mo closed his eyes. He could barely
make out that Lil Pagoda was changing.
The steady ball of light slowly dimmed until all the light was gone.

Lil Pagodas body had become even rounder, the tip of the power almost a ball now. The eaves
were even wider and smooth, giving people the feeling of chubbiness. The little gourds under the
eaves were bigger, and rounder.
Zuo Mo gaped.
These days, did pagodas also get fat?
Lil Pagoda shook its body, the chubby five levels of eaves opening and closing like five little
hands that were also waving. It didnt seem to have woken up, somewhat dizzy. However, it
quickly found Silly Bird guarding it at the side.
The eaves of the five levels opened, and Lil Pagoda shook the five colored chubby gourds on its
body as it skipped over to Silly Bird. Then it spat out a grey bead.
Silly Bird skillfully picked up the grey bead and swallowed it.
A tragic and pain filled voice suddenly shook the skies!
You people! I say, this is why has it been so long since this stuff had come out, you guys
secretly ate it!
Zuo Mo furiously pointed and swore. He felt his heart was being carved with a knife! Heavens!
The grey bead that Lil Pagoda had spat out a material that was not in the five elements!
With Silly Birds swallow, Zuo Mo felt the sky and earth turn, he seemed to see a flood made out
of countless jingshi enter Silly Birds mouth like a whale swallowing water!
Pain! Pain of the flesh!
Lil Black, who had been chewing happily, froze, the antennae that had been waving freezing in
the air. It slowly retreated, step by step, as slow as a turtle. When it found that Zuo Mo did not
seem to notice it, it shot away from Zuo Mos body like a black light and disappeared.
Zuo Mo instantly understood, and gritted out, Lil Black, so you were involved too!
Lil Pagoda timidly hid behind Silly Bird, the chubby body shivering.
Only Silly Bird was not scared, glancing at Zuo Mo, her eyes filled with disdain and scorn. She
picked up Lil Pagoda and proudly stalked her bird walk away. On the feathers above her butt
was Lil Black that bounced with the strides.
Zuo Mo was so angry he almost spat blood.

Gongsun Cha took back his dissatisfied gaze. The new additions to the troops, training until they
could barely fight, it was not easy. In War Chess, the setup for this was training took at least one
year. Other than that, it would take more than two real battles.
That could only be considered just having formed, and was far from a mature troop. As to a troop
of a hundred battle elite, that was hundreds of li away.
However, the troop in front of him, while far from the troop in Gongsun Chas heart, but it had
started to take the shape of a troop.
Like in the areas of organization, like the still immature cooperation.
There wasnt much technique in training but it wasnt as though there were no tricks, such as real
combat. Real battles were always able to quickly increase the strength of the group.
Gongsun Cha stared into the distance, his eyes dark, a cold and cruel smile floating at the corner
of his mouth.
In this hundred battle hell of Little Mountain Jie, did he have to worry there was no chance for
actual combat?
Translator Ramblings: A comedic chapter today. I dont know what Zuo Mo expected from his
menagerie. He is a terrible role model by certain standards so it is almost his fault Silly Bird and
Lil Pagoda turned out this way. The apples does not fall far from the tree. Pu failed at what he
was trying to do and Gongsun Cha starts building a troop.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Twenty Three Another Transaction
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Two Hundred and Twenty Three Another Transaction
From today onwards, I do not need earth energy.

Pu Yaos words were like a pardon. Zuo Mo felt a heavy weight had come off. The damned
drawing out of earth energy finally ended! Thinking that he didnt have to endure the pain of the
earth energy being drawn out, he felt very good!
He suddenly thought about the scene in the sea of consciousness. Was it connected? He
remembered that Pu Yaos face had been very terrible then.
Then he noticed a rare hint of hesitation in Pu Yaos voice. Zuo Mo did not speak, waiting for Pu
Yaos next words. Unexpectedly, Pu Yao did not immediately speak, but remained silent for a
long time.
Just as Zuo Mo almost couldnt bear it, Pu Yao finally spoke, Lets do a business.
What business? Zuo Mos guard rose up, the shock in his heart growing stronger. Pu Yaos
voice was full of sternness. The more Pu Yao acted out of the ordinary, the more careful he was.
He needed to be careful every time he talked business with Pu Yao.
Help me analyze mo matrixes. Pu Yaos tone was light.
Mo matrixes?
Yes, Pu Yao looked at Zuo Mo, I have a use for them.
What mo matrixes? Zuo Mo asked in puzzlement.
Pu Yao thought and then said, Higher level mo matrixes, Ill provide you with specimens.
This was too general. Zuo Mo warily shook his head. You understand mo matrixes better than I
do, I cant help you.
Even the mo matrix on his body had been carved by Pu Yao. In terms of understanding of mo
matrixes, Zuo Mo thought that he couldnt compare to Pu Yao. Zuo Mo found it strange that Pu
Yao had turned and asked him to analyze mo matrixes.
Pu Yao was not angry. Glancing at Zuo Mo, he said, You are not wrong, but this only shows that
Ive lived longer than you. Even though I do not want to admit it, but you are the most talented
person Ive seen with formations. Right now, you cannot overcome me, but you have the
potential, this is heaven given talent.
Seeing Zuo Mo keeping his silence, Pu Yao continued, I am not in a rush. I have enough
patience. This can only be good for you. I can supply countless types of mo matrixes. What you
have to do is very simple, just study them. [Copper Rhinoceros Mo Matrix] is one of the lowest
mo matrixes. The effects of those high level mo matrixes are not things you can imagine.

Zuo Mos heart moved. Pu yao had not lied about this. Of the three formations he had gained
from the [Copper Rhinoceros Mo Matrix], all of them were very useful, but were not high grade.
Take for example the body tempering formation. No matter how strong the ling energy was, the
effect of its tempering would have a limit.
If he could receive even higher level mo matrixes, he could find even higher grade formations
that were more complete. Even more importantly, the process of analysis was a cultivation
progress, and he could increase his understanding of formations.
Pu Yao had not finished his pitch. He understood Zuo Mos personality. To get this guy to agree
to something, it was not hard. He only needed to give something that the other could not refuse!
That was what he was doing now.
No matter if it is xiuzhe, or yaomo, I know at least a bit about all kinds of cultivation methods. I
can guide you in your cultivation. Your cultivation is not pure. Ling power, spiritual power, body,
you cultivate all of it. If you receive accurate guidance, you might be a miracle. However, if you
keep going like this, it would only become more heterogeneous, and in the end, you will achieve
nothing.
Zuo Mo knew that Pu Yaos words were not empty threats. Truthfully, he himself had already felt
that his strength was too heterogeneous, yet he lacked true understanding of each kind of power.
Or maybe I can help you solve the secret in your body.
The last bomb that Pu Yao lightly threw down was like a bolt of lightning!
Changing features and erasing the mind, not many yaomo use these. Only the cruelest of people
would do such things. He glanced at Zuo Mo. Changing features and erasing the mind, it
basically cannot be undone.
Zuo Mos heart sunk. The temperature of the room was not low, but his body felt cold.
Your body has something else. Pu Yaos words were shocking.
What? The words jumped out of Zuo Mos mouth.
A very rare five element glass bead. Pu Yao said, Sealed inside it is another persons power,
or maybe something else. There may also be a clue.
Pu Yao continued, If there is no trace inside, then use Reverse Shadow Spirit Silkgrass. It is
very hard for memories to be completely erased. There would always be some fragments left. If
you use Reverse Shadow Spirit Silkgrass, you can find these pieces. I know of a place you can
find Reverse Shadow Spirit Silkgrass.

Zuo Mo was silent.


Pu Yao looked at Zuo Mo and knew he needed time to digest this, closed his mouth and patiently
waited.
A long time later, Zuo Mo felt his mind start to move. Staring at Pu Yao, his voice was raspy as
he asked Pu Yao, How do you break the jinzhi on the five element glass bead?
You to reach jindan, or for me to recover my power.
How long would it take me to reach jindan?
Pu Yao had a careful expression. I cannot guarantee this.
Okay, Unexpected to Pu Yao, Zuo Mo agreed.
Originally, he had wanted to ask Pu Yao why the other wanted him to analyze mo matrixes, but
thinking about it, that didnt have anything to do with him.
It seems that we will be in business in the long term. Pu Yaos bloody pupil was a patch of
peace, his gaze holding none of the underestimation and arrogance he held previously. The three
formations Zuo Mo had discovered from the [Copper Rhinoceros Mo Matrix] had been an
enormous blow to him. What had blown Pu Yao away wasnt how exquisite the three formations
were but Zuo Mos efficiency.
The time that Pu Yao had spent on pondering mo matrixes was longer than Zuo Mos lifetime,
but he found that his pace was that of a turtle climbing compared to Zuo Mo. The astounding
talent that Zuo Mo displayed in formations shocked him, and allowed him to see a thread of
hope.
The effect of the Nether Pool was not as good as he had imagined. His situation was not good at
the moment. Even more, he didnt have many choices.
A series of factors forced him into a position of cooperation.

Zuo Mo didnt know these reasons. He didnt need to know. Just the secret in your body that
Pu Yao had said was enough for him to agree to this transaction. This matter had always been an
illness plaguing his heart. Zuo Mo was very practical, and he did not have high ambitions. He

liked a peaceful life. Even if he knew that his consciousness had been erased, in the depths of his
heart, he unconsciously did not hope for himself to enter a life of revenge. Adding on that he had
no clues, this matter had been deeply buried inside his heart.
His hard work and labors were not for revenge, but to survive. This was his reality.
Yet no one could disregard their past, especially when he was told that there was a five element
glass bead inside his body. His heart was instantly struck.
Who put it there? What connection did the person have to him?
He wanted to know!

Pu Yao was very satisfied with the transaction this time. He was very clear to Zuo Mos situation.
To an expert who was able to massacre Gongsun Cha in the wargames, and having experienced
the thousand year battle, Pu Yaos line of thinking was more far-sighted than Zuo Mo.
What did Zuo Mo need most right now?
Strength!
The troop that Gongsun Cha had made could only be considered distant water, and distant water
could not resolve nearby thirst.
The growth of strength had its necessary patterns. Pu Yao knew this, but he naturally had his own
reasons to dare to say such worlds. What he was relying on was not anything other than Zuo Mo
himself. Zuo Mos cultivation, due to different reasons, had been constantly suppressed by Pu
Yao, and it was this suppression that caused him to be on the precipice of a boundary.
His own situation made Pu Yao realize he had to change his strategy.
You are at the doorway of a breakthrough, Pu Yao said straightforwardly, Your body
cultivation is in Mountain Physique. Even though it is only one mountain, it is one step away
from an abhinna.
One mountain? Abhinna? Zuo Mo became alert.

The mountain physique is divided into three strata, one mountain is the first stratum. You have
cultivated to mountain physique, absorbed earth energy, your body cultivation has truly made it
into the gate. Now that you have reached mountain physique, you are not far from an abhinna.
Pu Yao said a little lie right there. Originally, Zuo Mo should have been able to achieve an
abhinna a long time ago. However, he had deliberately stopped it, and so, even now, he still
hadnt formed an abhinna.
Pu Yaos face didnt blush as he said, Abhinna is the term used by dhyana xiu. When cultivation
of the body reaches a certain level, the self becomes enlightened, and the abhinna forms from the
self. The abhinna is born of the self, and so everyones abhinna is naturally different.
Zuo Mo didnt really understand.
Oh, dhyana likes talking so mystically. You can understand it like this. What is body
cultivation? It is to forge the body as though it is a talisman. When it reaches a certain stage,
some abilities would naturally form. Each persons blood and flesh is different, so the abilities
are varied.
After Pu Yaos explanation, Zuo Mo felt he understood much more. Talismans, and flying
swords, after they were tempered for a long time, they would naturally become more powerful.
I can form an abhinna? Zuo Mo was slightly excited. He was very curious what his own
abhinna was.
Oh, pretty much, Pu Yao muddled, absorb more earth energy these next days. That stuff is
very useful.
In order not to have his lie seen through, he quickly changed the topic. Other than an abhinna,
there is something else that can dramatically increase your strength.
As expected, Zuo Mo was guided by his words. He was slightly shocked. What is it?
He never knew that he had anything on his body that could greatly increase his strength.
That five element glass bead, Pu Yao said. Five element glass beads are somewhat rare
talismans, it can store ling power, and turn ling power into five element base source.
Turn ling power to five element base source? Zuo Mo was slightly shocked. He was reminded
of Lil Pagoda. Lil Pagoda was able to deconstruct talismans and materials into five element
energy, but compared to five element base source, five element energy was the lesser variant.
Five element energy could form marrow, forming five element marrow. The little gourds hanging
on Lil Pagodas eaves were five element marrow. Five element base source was the finest and
best part of five element marrow.

Yes, five element base source is something very good. When you were injured last time, it was
this bead that repaired your body. Five element base source is very easy to absorb, and suitable
for body cultivation. I wonder who put it in, they were really extravagant, Pu Yao said with a
smile.
Strangely, Zuo Mo suddenly felt his heart move.
This movement was very suddenly. He suddenly had a feeling this five element glass bead was
very important to him!
He could not say why he would have this feeling, but this feeling was strong, so strong to the
point that he could not disregard it. He did not know who this five element glass bead belonged
to, but the person who put this five element glass bead in him, it must be one of his closest
people.
Was it his parents?
He raised his head, his tone decisive. Dont use it. Lets cultivate an abhinna.
Translator Ramblings: Pu has plans within plans. Even if the gravestone had Zuo Mo take
advantage, Pu still spun this to his advantage.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Twenty Four Pu Yaos Teaching
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Two Hundred and Twenty Four Pu Yaos Teaching
Pu Yao said it easily, but an abhinna was not so easily formed. After being modified by earth
energy, Zuo Mos body could contain more earth energy. Zuo Mo spent all of his time absorbing
earth energy. When the earth energy entered his body, it would turn into hundreds of thin streams
that spread throughout every part of Zuo Mos body.
Zuo Mo felt his strength was very full, and the mountain peak diagram on his palms were
becoming increasingly clear.
According to Pu Yao, his body cultivation could be considered to have finally crossed the
threshold. As he absorbed earth energy, Zuo Mo savored the difference between body and sword
cultivation. Compared to those complex and profound sword scriptures, body cultivation was
much easier. He only needed to continuously guide the earth energy to every part of his body and
continuously temper it. Body cultivation was a test of his patience more than anything else.

Zuo Mo guided the earth energy into the blood and bones, which previously had had earth energy
drawn out from before by Pu Yao. After multiple rounds of tempering, Zuo Mo was very familiar
with his body, and it did not require any effort. There was some earth energy that could not be
absorbed and swam between his blood and flesh. He was not rushed. Tempering was a labor of
time, and it could not be hurried. The blood, bone, flesh, and tendons of his body seemed to
breathe. When the amount of earth energy they absorbed reached a certain level, they would
become full.
Zuo Mos knees slightly bent, his two palms were covered in a dark blue light. He continuously
used his two palms to hit his body. With each blow his body would lightly shudder as though he
was struck by electricity, becoming numb and itchy.
Each blow would cause much of the earth energy to shatter into smaller dust-sized particles. Pia
pia pia, Zuo Mo continued for two hours before he stopped. The earth energies that he had taken
in today were all absorbed in.
He stood up. His body, rather than being tired, was in unspeakable ecstasy. He knew that as long
as he persisted, his body would become even harder and stronger, becoming as difficult to
damage as a talisman.
He suddenly seemed to like body cultivation. The offensive strength of body cultivation and
dhyana xiu could not compare to sword xiu, but tempering the body bit by bit continuously built
his confidence. Every pore in his body felt stronger every day, and continuously made him even
hardier.
Many dhyana xiu would not use a talisman in their entire lifetime because they would use all
their time on tempering their own bodies. Their bodies were not the least bit lacking compared to
strong talismans. The bodies of dhyana xiu after their death were the best for corpse forging, but
no one dared to do so. Xiuzhe who had dared to do so had all been killed without exception by
dhyana xiu.
Mo is the best at body cultivation. The [Vajra Profound Sutra] that you cultivate might be low
level, but it isnt bad to use when building your foundation, Pu Yao said coldly. Whenever he
mentioned something related to the gravestone, he never had a good tone. From the core,
humans are not suited to body cultivation.
Because we do not have mo matrixes? Zuo Mo reacted quickly.
Exactly. With the mo matrix, the efficiency of body cultivation is multiplied. As for body
cultivation, ling power is not the best choice. Ling power is most skilled in transformations. The
Dhyana bunch were all people who didnt have any sword scriptures at the time, and had no
choice but to mimic the mo in body cultivation, and only achieved half the effectiveness.

Pu Yao was full of scorn in his words about the dhyana xiu. He continued icily, Mo understand
body cultivation, but there is a world of difference there. Those slightly better body cultivation
mo arts all have strict inheritance rules. Hmph, hmph, the inheritance of yaomo is much stricter
than xiuzhe.
How do yaomo inherit? Zuo Mo was full of interest and asked in curiosity.
The best inheritances in the mo jies are mostly in the hands of mo above the level of general.
They are warlords, ruling over large numbers of lower level mo in their territories. In any of the
mo jie, inheritances represent strength. In order to learn an inheritance, one has to continuously
give their loyalty to their master. In the future, if you encounter a mo army, you have to be
careful.
Why? Are they even stronger than the yao army? Zuo Mo was slightly shocked. In his
experience, the yao army he had seen that day was so strong that he didnt even any thoughts of
resisting.
The yao army obeys commands as one, but in terms of obedience, no army can compare to the
mo armies. The military laws of the mo armies are so strict that no one is above them. Any mo
general will have hundreds of subordinates that are willing to die for him. Brave, not afraid of
death, and fanatical obedience. As long as the mo general is not too dumb, any troop would have
a headache when faced against them.
They arent afraid of death? Zuo Mo didnt understand. He found it hard to comprehend this
kind of loyalty. It was not that he did not believe in this kind of loyalty, but he felt that this kind
of loyalty would only appear on a few select people. If a whole troop was not afraid of death,
then it was too scary!
Because of mo skill inheritances. Any kind of high level mo skill inheritances will have its own
unique intelligence awakening technique that can bestow thought. What you people might say is
that mo are born from intelligence beasts. In reality, to be able to be called mo, there is one
condition, that their intelligence has been awakened. Behind every mo is their clan. But to
become mo, their intelligence must be awakened. Only beasts that have their intelligence
awakened can cultivate mo skills. If they die, their clan would benefit, and will receive more
opportunities to awaken the intelligences of more mo. These are the rules that any mo general in
any mo jie would abide by.
Why dont people awaken some more? Zuo Mo asked.
Awakening a mo intelligence comes at a price, Pu Yao looked at Zuo Mo, and said, There are
those that are naturally born intelligent, but the number is very low. Those mo are very talented
in cultivation.
But then, doesnt it mean that they forever have to be subordinates?

They arent stupid. Pu Yao smiled icily and said, Joining the army, there is a chance to receive
low level mo skill inheritances. The military achievements they accumulate can be used to trade
for better inheritances. Even though it cannot be the top mo skills, but the inheritances they
receive can be given to their clan members. If they can comprehend the technique to awaken the
intelligence on their own, their clan will start to walk on the road to prosperity. As though
whether the clan can become a Family, it depends on their fortune.
How do yao have inheritances? Zuo Mo was even more curious.
The clans of yao are even more complex than that of xiuzhe and mo. Over there, it is very easy
to learn low level knowledge. Pu Yao had a reminiscent expression. Our reproduction is not as
difficult as the mo. Newborn yao would be educated in their clans. When they reach a certain
age, they will all be arranged to enter a yao art house, and learn higher level yao arts there. The
best that graduate from the yao art houses would have chances to follow more powerful yao and
learn even higher level yao arts.
Zuo Mo gaped as he listened. He had always assumed that the world of yaomo was full of chaos
and killing. But listening to Pu Yao, it seemed that they were even more peaceful than the xiuzhe
jie.
Seemingly having guessed Zuo Mos thoughts, Pu Yao smiled coldly. Dont think of it as so
beautiful. Machinations in the shadows are never lacking anywhere you go. When he got to
there, Pu Yao seemed to have thought of some displeasing matter, his face slightly ugly.
Zuo Mo twisted his mouth. Pu Yao was too ungenerous. It had been thousands of years, but this
guy was still holding a grudge. In the future, he could not offend the other. The guy really held
grudges.
Pu Yaos introduction completely changed Zuo Mos impression of yaomo.
Your strength is not powerful, and youve learned many things. Even though it is a bit chaotic,
but its not as though there are no benefits. Pu Yao continued, The [Vajra Profound Sutra] it
gave you is rough, but its truly a mo skill. As for ling power, no matter if it is spells or
manipulation, or control, you are not less than any other xiuzhe. Theres nothing that needs to be
said about spiritual power. Star spiritual cultivation, Great and Little Thousand Leaf Hands, they
are all the best of yao arts.
Also, you are skilled in formations. This is especially important, Pu Yao discussed like one
learned in many areas of knowledge, No matter if it is xiu spells, yao arts, or mo skills, at the
core their essence is the laws of the world. If you do not understand formations and practice all
three kinds, you will end up with a terrible mixture. Three kinds of power, they have changed
and transformed over the long months and years, and now walk on different paths. However,
formations are something that can connect all three together.

When he got to there, Pu Yao became careful. I do not know what you will become in the future
because there has never been a precedent. The formations of xiuzhe were the first to develop and
the most complete, but xiuzhe do not know much of yaomo so Ive never heard of anyone having
a breakthrough in this area.
Why? Zuo Mo found it very strange that xiuzhe would disregard this. They had fought against
yaomo for so many years, but why would xiuzhe still know so little about yaomo?
Pu Yao wanted to rolled his eyes and mock Zuo Mo for his ignorance about history, but upon
further thought, he managed to resist it, and patiently explained, Jingshi and talismans are more
effective. As long as there are enough materials, the strength of a xiuzhe would quickly grow. No
matter if it is a mo skill or a yao art, even though it can be aided by external forces, but theyre
very limited and far slower than using jingshi and talismans. Also, mo skills and yao arts are not
suited for ling power. The more they are practiced, the more heterogeneous it becomes. Why are
sword xiu strong? Because they only cultivate ling power, only cultivate the sword. They only
need more jingshi, better materials, stronger talismans and flying swords! In reality, the path of
xiuzhe is to steal, increasingly professional theft.
Zuo Mo didnt know how to reply. Upon further thought, while he felt that Pu Yaos words were
slightly ugly, but they held some truth.
However, Pu Yaos tone turned and became full of scorn as he said, by taking advantage of
outside sources in the long term, they comprehend less. Even though I do not know what the
situation is like at present, but if I have not guessed incorrectly, the true experts of the xiuzhe are
probably fewer in number than thousands of years ago. Ha ha!
Tilting his head, Zuo Mo didnt know. Sky Moon Jie was a small place, he didnt know anything
about the outside world. He unconcernedly shrugged his shoulders. Never mind them, lets first
take care of ourselves.
Pu Yao snickered and didnt speak.
After Pu Yaos guidance, Zuo Mo felt his own thoughts were clear and distinct. He had a general
understanding of his future cultivation. Ling power, body, and consciousness, they represented
the three separate areas of xiu spells, mo skills, and yao arts. The three were connected together
by a single bridge, formations.
His confidence had increased from when he had analyzed and identified the three formations
from the [Copper Rhinoceros Mo Matrix].
At this time, he suddenly found some points that he had disregarded before. For example, the
growth of his consciousness was enormously beneficial for control of ling power. Didnt his own
fine control of ling power come from his spiritual power, which was far above those of the same
cultivation as him?

He suddenly had a feeling that his own ling power would most likely change after his body
cultivation improved.
He couldnt help but be full of anticipation!
Translator Ramblings: More of Pu, some yaomo history and society, and Zuo Mo getting
educated in what the world really is like. Zuo Mo is coming from a very well protected place of
his own ignorance and the small piece of life he was exposed to. Losing memory is almost a
better way of getting exposition and world-building than having someone time-travel where the
author can just match and use modern-day terms. In summary, Zuo Mo has the best body
cultivation similar to that of a mo, the best spiritual teachings that a yao can get, but his
knowledge and education that a xiuzhe could have sucks by comparison. Its just a little bit
ironic.

and Twenty Five Breakthrough in Body
Cultivation

Chapter Two Hundred and Twenty Five Breakthrough in Body Cultivation
Before Zuo Mo had formed his abinna, Gongsun Cha had already taken Stone Door Beach. The
high efficiency made Zuo Mo gape in awe.
The losses this time were smaller than the previous, and the xiuzhe captured were more
numerous than last time as well.
Included in this group was the head of the group, Xie Shan. When he saw the Three Section
Wave Killing Charge that Gongsun Cha had formed, he understood that the strength of the two
sides were not on the same level. Even though there was not a large difference in terms of
numbers, his rationality urged him to choose surrender.
After he had surrendered and learned that the other had attacked them just for the Rotten Metal
Silver mine of Stone Door Beach, he was so depressed he almost spat blood. If he knew
beforehand, he wouldnt have hesitated in giving it to them. In the present Little Mountain Jie,
who wanted a mine?
If there were no puppets or xiu slaves, the cost to mining could not be imagined. Xie Shan could
not understand, no matter how hard he thought why this group of people would want the mine.

However, while he could not understand the other sides intentions, he could clearly see the
difference in power.
The xiuzhe that had survived until now all had keen eyes, and a person that could lead a group
couldnt just rely on his ningmai third stratum cultivation. Xie Shan naturally had his own unique
characteristics. He could see that the group was well trained, not a group of wandering and loose
soldiers, and definitely had a deep background.
However, when he was told that jinzhi was going to be put into him, he was dumbstruck. When
he saw Zuo Mo, he was dumbstruck again.
A guy of ningmai first stratum
Zuo Mo was well-versed in how to set down jinzhi. It only took a little while for jinzhi to be put
into the bodies of this group of people. Naturally, jinzhi were not infallible. If someones
cultivation reached jindan, the jinzhi would become ineffective.
In this group, the one with the highest hope of becoming jindan was Xie Shan. However, it was
just a possibility. The difficulty of breaking into jindan was much higher than entering ningmai.
After entering ningmai, ling power would start a constant increase. Reaching the level of third
stratum was mostly dependent on an accumulation of ling power, but to breakthrough from
ningmai to jindan, it also required comprehension.
Zuo Mo did not worry in the slightest. Of course, the most important reason was that worrying
was useless.
The new camp was set at Stone Door Beach. Chun Yu Chengs beast pool was also moved over.
When the three Golden Armor Guards appeared in Xie Shans vision, Xie Shan finally accepted
his fate. The cultivation of the Golden Armor Guards did not seem as high as his, but the aura of
danger that surrounded their entire body made his heart shudder. When he saw the date seed ship,
the last bit of resistance in his mind dissipated.
Not anyone could possess a jingshi talisman.
In this period of time, other than body cultivation, Zuo Mo had done something else. He had
carved the three formations from the [Copper Rhinoceros Mo Matrix] onto the three Golden
Armor Guards. With these three formations, the Golden Armor Guards would continuously
absorb ling power, and then temper their bodies. Even though Pu Yao had not explicitly stated
the origins of the Golden Armor Guards, but Zuo Mo had guessed it. After he had asked Pu Yao,
he was informed that the reason these three Golden Armor Guards were so strong was due to
having used such quality materials such as ancient dragon bone and Nether water.
It was not possible to buy ancient dragon bone when one wanted too, and all of the Nether water
had been used up in the previous matter. It was temporarily impossible to make new Golden

Armor Guards. Zuo Mo tried to think of ways to increase the strength of the Golden Armor
Guards. Even more, where else could he find such good experiment subjects like the Golden
Armor Guards? Zuo Mo didnt need to worry at all about making a mistake when he carved the
formations.
In Zuo Mos view, the reason that the Golden Armor Guards could not increase in strength was
that they could not keep cultivating like xiuzhe could. There were no real differences between
Golden Armor Guards and the puppets, they both manipulated the power they already possessed.
The three formations that he carved onto the Golden Armor Guards could continuously temper
their bodies. With the continuous influx of ling power, theoretically, there was a possibility that
the three Golden Armor Guards could improve.
This was only a theoretical speculation.
After moving to Stone Door Beach, the most important matter was to make Black Processing
Meditation mats. Zuo Mo made one hundred paper puppets and threw them into the mining pit.
The mine already showed signs of excavation. Rotten Metal Silver was not a valuable material,
and was easy to sell. To any sect, this mine was a steady source of income.
Lil Pagoda was set in command of using the paper puppets to mine. The difficulty of mining the
ore was extremely low at this location which was why paper puppets could be used. If it was a
much more complex and dangerous mine, it would require higher level puppets.
Quickly, Rotten Metal Silver ore was continuously delivered to Zuo Mos hands. Zuo Mo used
the Golden Crow Fire to process the ore. Rotten Metal Silver was extremely malleable and had a
metallic sheen. It would naturally form with unique holes that made it look like rotten pieces of
metal.
With the Rotten Metal Silver, Zuo Mo immediately made large quantities of the Black
Processing Meditation mats. When the people under him personally experienced the benefits of
the Black Processing Meditation mats, everyone held their mats with a death grip, afraid
someone would steal it. Everyone understood what this Black Processing Meditation mat meant.
As long as they had a Black Processing Meditation mat, they did not have to fight anymore with
other people for ling grains, and did not have to worry that their cultivation would collapse one
day due to lack of ling grains and die.
The enthusiasm of the troop towards training suddenly increased. With the Black Processing
Meditation mat, they could cultivate like they did before to increase their cultivation. For any
cultivator, there was nothing that could move them more than this fact.
In such a harsh environment, without any pressure from Gongsun Cha, everyone trained with
their life. The Black Processing Meditation mat allowed them to see the hope of leveling up.
They were also completely won over by Gongsun Chas battle tactics after two battles.

No one wanted to die. Able to see hope, anyone was willing to put in their all.

Earth energy continuously moved from the ground into Zuo Mos body. The infection of the ling
veins did not cause the earth energy to also thin, but instead had made the earth energy even
more dense, and full of vitality. This kind of transformation was unexpected to Zuo Mo.
However, he understood after thinking it over.Now that ling energy was decreasing, Little
Mountain Jie was developing in the direction of Bloody Sky Metropolis Jie. This kind of
environment was much more suited to yaomo.
The increase in earth energy most likely was only one of reasons. Denser earth energy was more
suited to mo to cultivate their bodies.
Zuo Mos body had been continuously tempered and washed by the earth energy. In the last few
days, he had gone over every part of his body, not even missing his hair and nails. Nurtured by
earth energy, he did not look as thin and weak as he had previously. His figure became much
broader, his he could feel the enormous strength contained in his body as he moved.
This was purely the strength of his body of flesh. He had tried with the flying sword. If he did
not use ling power, the flying sword was unable to slice open his skin. Not just so, his bones and
flesh were also tempered. Without using ling power, he could easily punch granite to pieces.
He didnt even exclude the skin on his face. Pu Yao had suggested that he did not temper his
face, because it would increase the difficulty of regaining his original features. However, Zuo
Mo still persisted in tempering his face. In the present situation, the first priority was surviving
before anything else.
Zuo Mo could feel that every muscle and bone in his body had reached the limit that he could
reach at the moment.
He instantly understood that he was on the cusp of a breakthrough.
He calmed down his mind, slowly absorbing earth energy. His body was extremely well adjusted
to earth energy. Earth energy could easily pass through every part of his body. He felt the
pleasure from his bones and flesh soaking in the earth energy, the earth energy flowing past his
blood and flesh, making the blood and flesh tremble, and produce a tingly and itchy feeling.

The tingly and itchy feeling increased like there was countless ants climbing in his body. Zuo Mo
forced himself to not move. He tried to relax his body to absorb earth energy. His consciousness
slowly sank into his body.
His consciousness was much purer than previously. The size of the leaf hand had not changed,
but the leaf hand was much denser than before. At the center of the palm of the leaf hand, some
patterns had appeared that looked like the lines of a human palm.
Every tiny change of his body, under his consciousness, became clear like they never had been
before.
The earth energy became increasingly dense, the amount of earth energy in Zuo Mos body
reaching an astonishing level. Even the channels which were full of ling power felt the pressure
from the earth energy. However, the ling power in the channels would not so easily retreat.
Seeing the earth energy and ling power about to conflict inside his body, Zuo Mos heart rose.
He hadnt expected the earth energy to leave the channels of their own initiative. The attention of
the earth energy went back to his blood, bones, and flesh.
The plentiful earth energy started to slowly charge at Zuo Mos blood, flesh, tendons and bones.
Zuo Mo uncontrollably started to tremble. If the charge before had been like the itch of ants, then
it was like there was a saw slowly sawing his body.
He didnt dare to move. He knew that this was the earth energy helping him reconstruct his body.
If he could endure this moment of enormous pain, the benefits he would receive would be
incomparable!
Under the charge of earth energy, each muscle in his body slowly moved. The slightly slack
muscles became even tighter and firm, and the connections of the muscles, under the stimulation
of the earth energy, started to furiously grow. It was like the root of a tree that continuously grew
and burrowed deep into the ground.
Growth, what it changed wasnt just his muscles, even his bones were continuously compressed.
The bones became even thinner, but they were multiple times stronger.
Zuo Mo shook like dice, the enormous pain causing his eyes to redden but he did not make a
sound.
The earth energy moved and occupied his eyes. His vision became a blur, unable to see anything
distinctly.
These days, after Pu Yaos teachings, he had a much deeper understanding about body
cultivation. He knew the long that he resisted, the more benefits he would get.

The pain rolled like waves. His body was soaked in sweat, a puddle at his feet. He didnt know
how long it had been, his mind was blank.
There seemed to be a voice far away talking to him.
But his mind was unmoving. He didnt heart one word. That voice, it seemed to sound somewhat
like the voice that appeared in his dreams.
After an unknown period of time, his wandering and uncomprehending mind slowly recovered.
The scene in front of him slowly became clear.
The bone-aching pain had disappeared like the pain just now had never existed. His body felt as
though it was soaking in hot water, the pleasure coming from the deepest part of his body
making Zuo Mo want to groan.
But the sweat all over his body told him that the hell like pain had not been a delusion.
Zuo Mo suppressed the urge to sink back into the pleasure, instinctively raising his palm.
When he saw his palm, he was dumbstruck.
Translator Ramblings: Gongsun Cha is an efficient henchman. Zuo Mo gets another
breakthrough. Pu Yao didnt really lie, but his promise of more Golden Armor Guards is
obviously an empty one since he cannot really fulfill it right now.
Xie Shan is the closest person weve seen to a jindan who isnt a jindan. Keep in mind that most
of these people are middle-aged since they find Zuo Mo very young. If we go way back to the
Sword Test Conference, the competitors were all in ningmai except Zuo Mo. However, they
would most likely have all been in first stratum. The average power of the people he is
encountering has been steadily increasing. Hes moved up three stages in ling power which
makes this a long read to his power-up. However, this makes each of his breakthroughs much
more valuable.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Twenty Six The Stage of Two
Mountains
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Two Hundred and Twenty Six The Stage of Two Mountains

The previous withered palm seemed somewhat like metal now, with a barely perceptible layer of
faint gold. Several golden lines were especially visible on his palm. Another mountain peak had
appeared beside the mountain peak at the center of his palm.
Two Mountains? Pu Yao suddenly came out, slightly shocked as he looked at the two
connected mountain peaks on Zuo Mos palm.
Zuo Mo was also very shocked. He had thought that he would form an abhinna this time, and had
not expected that he would break through to two mountains.
This is the stage of two mountains? Zuo Mo asked with slight curiosity. He continuously
opened and closed his hand, feeling the great strength passing from his palm.
Pu Yao looked at Zuo Mo like he was looking at a weirdo. He could not understand how Zuo Mo
had reached two mountains so quickly. He had never thought that this was his achievement. It
was due to him continuously drawing earth energy from Zuo Mos body, causing Zuo Mos body
to have been tempered multiple times that Zuo Mo had been prepped ready.
Zuo Mo seemed to know the cause, but thinking that Pu Yao and the gravestone seemed to be at
odds, he decided to muddle over it, changing the topic. What is the benefit of the two mountain
stage?
His body which had become robust looking had become thin once again . However, each muscle
in his body had become stronger and firmer, hard as metal. His strength had multiplied.
He gently stomped his feet. Poof, his right foot seemed to have stepped into tofu, sinking to his
calf. He pulled out his foot, and saw the edges of the hole were very clean, like it was carved out
using a mold.
The mountain represent strength. The stage of two mountains represent that you can use two
mountains of strength at maximum. Pu Yao thought for a while and hadnt managed to find an
explanation so he threw the problem to one side. He was gradually adjusting to Zuo Mo
occasionally surprising him.
How strong is one mountain of power? Is it to be able to move a mountain? Is that possible?
Zuo Mo said unconcernedly.
Pu Yaos face was one of disdain. How is that strange? If a mo skill is at a significant level,
moving mountains or flipping oceans is not anything. That Dong Fu Town of yours, wasnt it a
town built by a sword xiu lopping off a mountain peak with one blow?
Thats true, but I feel that I dont have such great strength Zuo Mo argued as he looked at the
his palm.

How long have you cultivated? You want to move mountains and flip oceans? Pu Yaos face
was full of scorn. When xiuzhe cultivate ling power, dont they need to also coordinate with
sword scriptures and spells? Mo are the same. Other than body cultivation, mo skills also teach
you how to use the strength of the body.
He paused and then said, The thinking of mo is very strange. They feel that their body is the
most primal source of all their strength, but also feel the body is a cage. You may have reached
the stage of two mountains, but in reality, even if you familiarize yourself with mo skills, you
cannot use all of your power. Even if your technique is there, your body would first be
destroyed.
So its like that. Zuo Mo instantly realized. Pu Yaos words were very reasonable. Suddenly
thinking of his goal for this time, he hurriedly asked, Then have I formed my abhinna?
Check, is there a place that is abnormal? Pu Yao helplessly reminded. It really was hard work
to teach a newbie.
Abnormal? Zuo Mo hurriedly calmed him mind and took a inner look at his body. He quickly
found the abnormality that Pu Yao was speaking off. This abnormality was at his eyes, and not
any other place of his body.
His eyes looked into the surroundings. The thick earth energy seemed to have been attracted by
an invisible strength, and tightly wrapped around his eyes.
This was
He didnt dare to move rashly, using his consciousness to carefully examine the two balls of
earth energy. What reassured him slightly was that his eyes did not feel any discomfort, but no
matter how he worked, he could not affect the two balls of earth energy.
After trying many times, he helplessly came out of his inner perspective.
Did you find it? Pu Yao asked with curiosity.
En, its the eyes, Zuo Mo was slightly dejected, I tried, but didnt know how to use them, and
dont know what they are used for.
Eyes, Pu Yao said, your luck isnt bad. There are many abhinna regarding the eyes, and those
are somewhat useful. An abhinna cannot be taught, the abhinna that each person forms is
different. You have to slowly experiment, and make your own conclusions. As to not able to use
them, dont worry. Many abhinna cannot be used when they first form. They need to slowly
form, and stabilize before they can be used. Your abhinna may belong to this kind.
Zuo Mo wasnt depressed. He was very satisfied already with reaching two mountains.

Pu Yao said in a deep voice, Dont worry about the abhinna. It is not easy to find mo skills, but
dont you have a dhyana xiu under your command? You are able to use the fist scripture that he
has. In terms of yao arts, [Embryonic Breathing Spiritual Cultivation] and the [Great and Little
Thousand Leaf Hands] are enough for you. The worst you have right now is scriptures for ling
power. [Embryonic Breathing Spiritual Cultivation] in the end is still for cultivating the spirit.
We need to find you a scripture.
Zuo Mo was shocked at his favor. When was Pu Yao ever so concerned with him?
Pu Yao sunk into thought as though Zuo Mo did not exist.
Seeing the situation, he perceptively went about his own business. However, he clearly noted
down Pu Yaos words.

Zong Ru could not be anything but puzzled when he heard the boss had called him. Truthfully,
even if he was the only dhyana xiu in the group, he did not have many outstanding qualities. His
strength could only be considered intermediate. The only aspect he was good in was probably
defense. In this group of sword xiu who didnt seem to know what defense even was, as a
dhyana xiu, his defense was like the crane among the chicken flock.
His personality was very steady so even though he was shocked, he was still composed. When he
saw Zuo Mo, he respectfully bowed. Boss.
Zuo Mo couldnt help but praise him inside. In terms of mentality, sword xiu could not catch up
to dhyana xiu. The dhyana xiu emphasized mental strength and their Samadhi.[i] Things like
illusory formations were less effective against them.
Zuo Mo didnt mince words, straightforwardly saying, I want your [Sky Wave Fist Scripture],
give me a price.
Zong Ru shook his head. [Sky Wave Fist Scripture] isnt a profound scripture. If Boss wants it,
please go ahead.
Zuo Mo waved his hand. This belongs to you. If I want it, I will either buy it or trade for it.
Relationships and business are not mixed together.
Seeing that Zuo Mo did not seem to be pretending, Zong Ru was truly shocked this time. He had
followed many people before, and was used to seeing those above demand talismans and

scriptures from their subordinates. Hearing Bosss astounding conclusion, the shock he was
experiencing could be imagined.
However, Zong Ru was still wary. All up to Boss.
Seeing Zong Rus caution, Zuo Mo felt slightly helpless. He wasnt pretending with his words. In
the sect, the sect could not unreasonably take the possessions of the disciples. If they wanted
something, they needed to pay a corresponding price. That was also his attitude.
He thought and then said, You can pick a talisman of the same grade as [Sky Wave Fist
Scripture], or he suddenly had an idea, trade for three formations.
Three formations? Zong Ru was puzzled.
I can carve three formations on your body. One is a ling gathering formation, one is a body
tempering formation, one is a ling processing formation, Zuo Mo explained. The ling gathering
formation can constantly help you absorb the ling energy in the surroundings, the ling processing
formation is similar to the Black Processing Meditation mat, and can filter out the impurities in
the ling energy. The body tempering formation can use ling power to temper your body. You are
a dhyana xiu, these three formations are very suitable for you.
The usually composed Zong Ru couldnt help but have an expression of disbelief as he
unconsciously gasped, This this is not possible!
This was not possible!
Zong Ru had walked many places, and had a wide range of knowledge. He had never heard of
any formations that could be carved onto a persons body. These three formations if they
were truly as Boss had described, then was there a need to cultivate at all?
Zuo Mo did not argue. You can pick two talismans.
Zong Rus expression changed, his heart conflicted. His reason told him what Boss said was
impossible! However, he could easily tell that Boss had not lied! If it was truly as Boss had said,
this was a chance that came one in a thousand times!
Suddenly, he laughed. What did he have to be afraid of losing?
Zuo Mo saw Zong Rus expression return to normal and knew that Zong Ru had made his
decision.
Zong Ru raised his head, and said with determination, I choose the three formations!

In a mountain valley about three hundred li from Stone Door Beach.


Boss, Xie Shan of Stone Door Beach was taken in by someone else. A xiuzhe reported.
What are their origins? A xiuzhe with crimson red hair furrowed his brow. He was called
Venerable Chi. He had more than one hundred and fifty subordinates, and was one of the major
powers in this area.
Havent found out yet, This xiuzhe said with slightly terror. Seeing the anger on Venerable
Chis face increase, he hurriedly explained, We dont know where this bunch of people came
out off. There arent many, but they arent weak. When they were taking down Xie Shan, there
were only a few dozen people.
A few dozen? Venerable Chis expression changed. Xie Shan should also have about sixty
something people, and isnt Xie Shan ningmai third stratum?
Ningmai third stratum definitely was first rate experts in Little Mountain Jie. In battle, the effect
of an expert like Xie Shan was enormous, he could take on seven or eight people by himself.
This xiuzhe raised his head to look at his leader seeing the anger on Leaders face decrease, his
heart relaxed slightly. The battle finished very quickly, and did not leave traces.
Does this group have some powerful talisman? Venerable Chi pondered. He was clear about
Xie Shans strength. He had wanted to conquer Xie Shan a long time ago, but he had not acted
due to his fear of Xie Shans strength. He had more than one hundred and fifty people under his
command, but not one was ningmai third stratum. Suddenly hearing that Xie Shan had been
defeated, he naturally became wary.
Did the group also have ningmai third stratum experts?
If it was like that, then it was terrible! Adding on Xie Shan, it meant the other side had at least
two ningmai third stratum. The other possibility was the group had a powerful talisman so
terrifying that even Xie Shan had to surrender.
No matter which possibility it was, it was not good news to him.
If it was possible, he wanted to immediately take his group and leave behind this place. With the
power he had, there were not many that dared to target him.

However, when he thought about the things inside the cave, he gave up on the thought of
escaping.
That thing was really too important to him!
Venerable Chi was not a person that did not have brains. He was very clear that once the group
had digested Xie Shans power, their own strength would quickly increase. The next target would
definitely be them.
After thinking for a while, he raised his head, and said in a deep voice, Call the Three Kong
Brothers over.

[i] Incredibly awkward but Buddhist meditation or Samadhi is a different concept than the
mediation that has been seen previously. Of course, stuff becomes weird here because
mediation is a Buddhist practice that became inspiration for cultivation novels, so all cultivators
are Buddhist from a certain viewpoint.
Translator Ramblings: I see the typos you guys picked out, I just need to find the time to edit
them. Thank you for your comments.
Zuo Mo advances, and I thought last chapters cliffhanger got a terrible conclusion in this
chapter. It is such an letdown, but everything to keep you reading, right? Zuo Mo also get his
first human subject for his formations.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Twenty Seven Internal Orders
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, Brian, and warlord212.
Chapter Two Hundred and Twenty Seven Internal Orders
Zuo Mo did not immediately start practicing [Sky Wave Fist Scripture] that he had gotten from
Zong Ru. Instead he decided to organize his thoughts first.
Just as Pu Yao had said, he knew a variety of things, but upon further inspection of these areas,
the ones that were powerful were pitifully few.
Presently, the most powerful item in his arsenal was the yin fire bead. It was extremely damaging
as a frontal attack. However, since yin fiend grounds were hard to find at the moment, he could

not create yin beads. So yin fire beads were a limited resource. Also, if the enemy was on their
guard, the effectiveness of the yin fire bead was not high.
There was also the five essence sword set. Even though he did not have the scriptures to progress
further with it, the little sword formation originated from the sword essence formation and was
still astoundingly powerful among the ningmai xiuzhe. However, it had not been tested in battle
before, and Zuo Mo did not know just how powerful it was. What the five essence sword set
used was a sword formation. From this perspective, it was more like a formation disk that was
forged from five flying swords.
Over time, he had also managed to get five moves of [Little Thousand Leaf Hands] from Pu Yao.
[Little Thousand Leaf Hands] had many variations and was hard to predict. He could only barely
manage to cast the five moves, and was still far from being smooth and familiar with them. What
[Little Thousand Leaf Hands] manipulated was the ling energy of the world. It had many
requirements for the environment and was not easy to cast. But once it could be successfully
cast, it would be immensely powerful.
After practicing [Sky Wave Fist Scripture], he would have another move. However, Pu Yao had
also said that [Sky Wave Fist Scripture] was not some powerful fist scripture, and the power
should not be very shocking.
Thinking about it that way, Zuo Mo felt that overall his moves were lackluster. In terms of
talismans, Lil Pagoda was a soul-tethered talisman, but it was more skilled in controlling
formations. While the other talismans that he possessed were valuable, but he did not have
talismans that were at the very top of the grade.
No matter the grade, the finest talismans of the grade would have their own special
characteristics.
A strong feeling of danger arose.
Zuo Mo had already decided to use gang fighting against the jindan expert of Clear Sky Sect, but
that did not mean that he did not need the power to protect himself. At the very least, he had to
guarantee that he could survive the upcoming gang fight.
The best place to cultivate was in the camp. Zuo Mo decided to move to the camp.

Having Boss personally come to the camp instantly made everyone alert; they did not dare slack
off. Their eyes occasionally floated in the direction of Boss. No matter if it was an old-timer or
one of the new members, they all knew one thing, Boss had many good things in his possession!
The first person to benefit had been Ma Fan. A fifth-grade movement method, many people had
stared at it with red eyes. These days, they personally saw Ma Fan practicing the fifth-grade
movement method that he had received. The dazzling images that had been produced before
could not even be perceived now. He was like a wraith, suddenly appearing and disappearing.
Every xiuzhe who saw this scene had uncontrollably inhaled sharply. When they thought of Ma
Fans untraceable and powerful [Illusory Shadowless Sword of Destruction], together with this
silent and untraceable movement method, they knew he was able to kill any of them without a
trace.
Lil Miss had also given Ma Fan a beast service card. No one dared to underestimate the grey and
non-descript butterfly.
While Ma Fan made everyone jealous, they had nothing to say. Ma Fans power was obvious.
His cultivation was not as high as Xie Shan, but his effect during battles was not something Xie
Shan could compare to. Even Xie Shan would admit it. What was more, the numbers of enemy
killed were written in bright red cinnabar and his score not something anyone could hope to
match.
But Zong Rus encounter had gotten many people thinking.
Zong Ru was a docile person and could not defend against the probing of these people and had
completely admitted to everything. Boss had insisted in trading, and this reassured them all.
What dissatisfaction could they have in following such a boss? However, a few days after the
inquiry, Zong Rus furious improvement shocked his team members, Nian Lu and Lei Peng,
Lil Miss also discovered Zong Rus present situation, and instantly took him out to cultivate on
his own.
Eventually everyone had found out that Zong Ru had three formations carved onto his body
which had lead to such miraculous effects! Instantly, everyones heart moved. Fifth-grade
movement method was a reward based on service, and there was no chance to change this. But
these three formations were something that Zong Ru had used a fist scripture to trade for.
In other words, these formations could be traded for!
These experienced old-timers, how could they not understand this?
Boss had also came to cultivate at the base. With such a good chance, how could they let it slip
past their fingertips?

The first one to try was Lei Peng. He had been stimulated the most after practicing with Zong Ru
everyday. This guy seemed like a rough man, but in reality, his mind was extremely attentive. He
even had managed to get the effects of the three formations out of Zong Ru.
The use of the body cultivation formation was not large for him, but he drooled at the other two
formations. This guy was extremely daring, and took advantage of a chance to rest to approach
Zuo Mo. This rough man used an extremely ingratiating tone to say, Boss, can an ask you for
something?
Zuo Mo looked with slight surprise at Lei Peng. What is it?
An also wants three formations carved on the body. Hearing Boss make a sound of surprise, his
heart jumped and he hurriedly said, An is willing to use [Abyss Ghost Sabre Scripture] to
trade.
Zuo Mo instantly understood.
Was there any reason to refuse business that came up to the door? Even more, he was still very
unfamiliar with carving formations onto the body. It was rare that there was an experimental
subject that came up to him. Zuo Mos heart rejoiced.
Zuo Mo made a sound and pretended to think. Carving the formations is not so simple. There is
a risk.
Lei Peng had already mentally prepared for this point. There was no free lunch in the world.
How could there not be any risk in such a speedy and simple method? However, he asked
cautiously, Would it harm the cultivation?
No, but it will leave behind scars if it fails. Because it uses a special ling liquid, even scar
removing dan may be unable to remove it.
Lei Peng instantly released and breath and chuckled. Ans a man, so an doesnt need to be so
pretty. The failure of the carving would just be a scar. Which guy that lived off a bloody blade
to survive would care about that?
Seeing the situation, Zuo Mo said expressionlessly, I dont need a sabre scripture. If you want to
trade, you have to use something else. He had already learned a variety of things, he didnt plan
on adding a sabre scripture to the mix.
Lei Peng instantly panicked and flung open the hundred treasure pouch on his waist and emptied
it. Boss, take what you want, an will trade!
Zuo Mo narrowed his eyes and swept across the objects. Suddenly, his gaze slightly froze. He
picked out a fist sized jade rock from a pile of knick-knacks and said, This one.

Okay! Lei Peng was overjoyed. What he was most worried about at the moment was that he
didnt have anything that Boss wanted. He seemed to be afraid that Boss would regret his
decision, and he hurriedly packed away everything else.
Come with me. Zuo Mo stood, and after an exchange with Gongsun Cha, he left with Lei
Peng.

When Lei Peng joyfully returned in the evening, the camp instantly exploded. When Lei Peng
bared his upper body and showed off the three formations that had just been carved, other people
drooled.
With an example of success, the crowds started to move.
Who didnt have something good on their bodies? Materials, talismans, jade scrolls. Boss traded
for everything. Boss was even willing to take some talisman remnants. Also, Boss never
demanded an outrageous price. He would only pick one item each time.
Many times, everyone felt that Boss was a businessman full of professionalism!
Almost all the xiuzhe decided to carve the formations. Zuo Mos waiting line had already formed
a twenty day backlog. He felt he would be driven insane by what he was gaining this time!
After taking down Xie Shan, he had one hundred and ten people under his command. Other than
Zong Ru and Lei Peng, everyone else had queued up for getting formations carved. What was
more practical and valuable as increasing ones strength?
None of them were beginners. Everyone understood the value of these three formations. Even if
Zuo Mos condition had been more stringent, the great majority would still have chosen to get
them carved. However, Zuo Mos conduct of picking only one had left an impression of not
greedy on the people.
If Zuo Mos facial expression could move, he would definitely be smiling widely.
There was not much in terms of talismans that could move his heart, but there were some
precious jade scrolls. He had even found the Summer Flower ling farming jade scroll. He had
been searching for this thing for a very long time. The result was that he had picked it out from a
pile that appeared to be garbage.

What he had gained the most was all kinds of materials. These people all had cultivations in
ningmai, which of them would collect normal materials? Zuo Mo had picked all fourth-grade
materials. He had the Golden Crow Fire now and could process these materials.
Even Pu Yao felt jealous of Zuo Mos gains!
However, the transaction between them did not include the dividends of the profits Zuo Mo
would get from using the formations. If it had been in the past, Pu Yao would have no
consideration in taking from Zuo Mo. But right now, Pu Yao was in a position of asking a favor
from Zuo Mo, and could not do so.
The red-eyed Pu Yao could only use another method to vent the dissatisfaction in his heart.
Youve already familiarized yourself with the [Copper Rhinoceros Mo Matrix]. This is the mo
matrix for [Golden-Wing Great Roc]. You should try to analyze it as fast as possible. Pu Yao
threw out a jade scroll. The mo matrix recorded inside the jade scroll was much more complex
than the [Copper Rhinoceros Mo Marix]. After just one look, Zuo Mo felt slightly dizzy.
Pu Yao was very smug.
In any mo jie, Golden-Wing Great Rocs were nobility, and possessed an unique bloodline! They
were born abnormal, not needing any technique for their intelligence to be awakened. They had
the highest kind of inheritance. After evolving each generation, their bodies gradually became
perfected, and the mo matrix on their bodies was also perfected. Their only weakness was one
common to many clans with superb bloodlines, low reproductive ability.
Such a complex mo matrix was far beyond Zuo Mos abilities.
Pu Yao had purposefully given the [Golden-Wing Great Roc Matrix] to Zuo Mo to douse Zuo
Mos arrogance. A mo matrix as perfect as this one held a fatal attraction to Zuo Mo. Zuo Mo
would uncontrollably be attracted to it, and be tortured by it. When the fire was right, he would
then throw a low level mo matrix to Zuo Mo.
The more Pu Yao thought, the happier he became. For some reason, when he saw Zuo Mos
recent smugness, he was very displeased inside.
Just as Pu Yao had imagined, Zuo Mo was completely enchanted by this mo matrix, deeply
enchanted! Pu Yao could clearly detect when Zuo Mo first saw the [Golden-Wing Great Roc
Matrix], his breathing had stopped!
However, unexpectedly, Zuo Mo had displayed astounding self-control. The first thing he did
after his trance was throw the jade scroll into the ring.

Then Pu Yao heard Zuo Mo grit out as he carved formations for people, his mouth almost
convulsing as he chanted, refrain, refrain!
There were frequent screams that came out of Zuo Mos room.
Translator Ramblings: Yes, Zuo Mo has now carved formations onto his group of captivesoldiers. Zuo Mo has a very low level mo matrix and the three formations are simplified from
that so they are even more basic. It doesnt mean that the three formations arent advanced, but
the mo matrix has other attributes which Zuo Mo cannot copy onto the formations.
It is very funny though that Zuo Mo has managed to win with great benefits. He gets people to
feel that it is good to work for him, they will become stronger due to the formations and he also
got paid in materials.
The complete archive dropdown box has been moved to the side panel of the website. I think this
is the solution that is the greatest time-saver.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Twenty Eight Ma Fans Decisiveness
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, Brian, and warlord212.
Chapter Two Hundred and Twenty Eight Ma Fans Decisiveness
Ma Fan had a separate cultivation area, which Gongsun Cha had specifically drawn out for him.
It was a little corner closest to the water.
The geography of Stone Door Beach was very wide, next to the mountains and water.
Occasionally, white birds would swim by on the water. The cruel conflicts in Little Mountain Jie
had not affected them, thus they still lived idle lives. They did not have anything that xiuzhe
would scheme after. They were not ling beasts, and the change in ling power did not affect them.
The remnant rays of the dusk reflected off the water, the white birds dragging their long
shadows, the reeds gently waving in the wind. Unconsciously, Ma Fan stopped training, and
walked to the water, looking into the distance, his heart peaceful and serene.
Suddenly, he lifted his eyelids, wariness flashing through his eyes.
Without changing expression, he lowered his arm, the jade card that was tied to his wrist touched
his fingertip. A finger-sized grey butterfly silently grasped onto the inside of his middle finger,
looking like a nondescript grey ring.

Ma Fans eyes were covered in an imperceptible layer of grey. It looked as though his eyes had
become dimmer.
[Ling Pupils]!
His vision silently changed. The dense reeds gradually became transparent, and a ball of shadow
was visible as it hid among them.
So thats where they were hiding!
The others position was about one hundred and fifty zhang away from him. He didnt have the
confidence to kill with one blow at this distance. From the position the other had chosen, the
other could be considered very careful. If he could not kill with one blow, it would be unlikely to
be able to stop the other in this open landscape.
Ma Fan guessed that it was a spy from some other faction. This distance was more suited to
watch but not an ambush.
If this was in the past, Ma Fan would have most likely chosen to disregard it. It was better to not
invite trouble, he disliked trouble. But today, the first thought that flashed through his mind was
actually to kill the other person!
When he managed to respond, he couldnt help but feel shock at his first instinct. However, he
didnt waste much time on his emotions. He recalled the reminders Gongsun Cha had said many
times to him.
The greatest taboo on the battlefield is indecisiveness! You are the core, you must be decisive,
you must make the choice in a lightning flash! No matter if the choice is right or wrong!
This distance he wasnt certain of killing with one blow, what should he do?
You have to believe in your fellows, dont just go at it alone. What would you do if you dont
have a chance? Very simple, you have two choices, you can make chances for your teammates
and your teammates can make chances for you.
Ma Fan turned around, his expression normal. He saw three fellows. He only recognized one
person of the three, the guy that was called Xie Shan. He had been the leader of the group they
had captured last time. Supposedly, his cultivation was ningmai third stratum.
In reality, he had hoped that the three people he saw was the Lei Peng team. Even though Xie
Shans power was far stronger than the Lei Peng team, but this team was made of new members
and didnt have any familiarity with him.
However, he didnt have a better choice.

Old Xie, He raised his arm, and shouted.

Xie Shan stilled and stopped moving, turning his face towards Ma Fan, puzzled on the inside. He
naturally recognized Ma Fan, the core of the entire troop. The one with an incomparable
position, the most trusted subordinate of Lil Miss.
But Xie Shan had never spoken one word with him.
Hey! Even though he was puzzled, he still responded with a smile. In the troop, he was the
newest of the new. Even if his individual power was the highest, to gain Gongsun Chas trust, it
required time. He wasnt so stupid as to offend Ma Fan.
Come help me train, lets try my new movement method, Ma Fans tone was intimate as he
shouted.
Xie Shan imperceptibly furrowed his brows. He might be a newbie, but he was used to being the
leader, no one had dared ask him to assist in training. However, the others intimate tone did not
hold any negativity. What puzzled him even more was that he had never seen Ma Fan find
someone to train with him in the past.
It was slightly strange
Suddenly, his eyes locked onto the palm that Ma Fan had raised up, a finger sized grey butterfly
peacefully grasping his middle finger.
His heart suddenly jumped!
It had been Gongsun Cha who gave the grey butterfly beast service card to Ma Fan. It was rare to
see him use it. If it really was a spar, Ma Fan should not have summoned the grey butterfly.
Xie Shan was very experienced. He thought as he smiled and walked towards Ma Fan. Okay!
The other two xiuzhe on the team looked at each other and did not speak. They could not afford
to offend Xie Shan, much less Ma Fan. The two just stopped to watch.
Ma Fan and Xie Shan did not waste words, starting immediately.

What Xie Shan cultivated was the [Aurora Mirage Sword]. This was a rare fifth-grade sword
scripture. He didnt need to show his flying sword, raising his hands, multicolored sword
energies flew out like an extremely beautiful aurora above the snow.
An icy presence instantly spread. Under the aurora in the sky, snowflakes danced, sharp as
knives!
Sword essence!

Ma Fans heart instantly shook. This was sword essence! In the camp, all one hundred and ten
xiuzhe were all ningmai, but there wasnt more than five people that had comprehended sword
essence.
As expected of the strongest person of the camp. With this attack, Ma Fan felt the pressure
increase. The bright sword essences were like mist and dust, carrying a cold presence. Under the
beautiful appearance was fatal killing intent!
The slowly spreading sword essence was like countless thin strands that were invisible to the
naked eye that would silently trap a person.
However, you arent the only one who comprehended sword essence! Ma Fans grey eyes
slightly narrowed.

Xie Shan intended to show his strength. In the previous battle, he had not displayed his strength.
Gongsun Chas three section wave killing charge had been too ferocious. It was like an enormous
hammer. With one blow, Xie Shans group had been broken into pieces. Seeing the situation, Xie
Shan had immediately surrendered. Up until now, he had not had a chance to showcase his own
strength.
It was a pity that Gongsun Cha was not at the camp. Xie Shan felt some regret. If he could
display his full power in front of Lil Miss, it would be of great aid to increasing his status within

the troop. However, there were only benefits and no disadvantages to displaying his strength in
front of his fellows.
He was quickly surprised by Ma Fans strength.
Theoretically, there was a level of strength between the two. Xie Shan was ningmai third stratum,
and Ma Fan was just ningmai second stratum. However, from the battle, it did not seem like a
battle between two opponents of different power levels.
Xie Shan had never seen the confidence and determination that Ma Fan showed in another
person. Was this what it was to be the core?
Each of Ma Fans blows would create many fake illusions that dazzled the eyes, but what
shocked Xie Shan right after was that the afterimage of each sword energy did not disappear, but
howled as they shot towards Xie Shan as though they were tangible!
Sword essence!
Ma Fan actually also comprehended sword essence!
The last thread of underestimation in Xie Shans heart disappeared. He did not use his full power,
but he was also clear the other also had killing moves.
A ningmai second stratum was able to match him. Xie Shan couldnt help but feel slightly bitter
inside.
The multicolored aurora and the intangible sword shadows flew into the sky. There were
continuously sounds of explosions but were controlled to an extremely small area, sounding like
corn popping.
The xiuzhe in the camp had all stopped, turning their faces up to watch the fight. Everyone had
an excited expression. One was the definite core of the troop, one was the xiuzhe with the highest
cultivation of the camp. The battle between the two was the strongest collision!
In the sky, a multicolored ball of light dozens of zhang appeared. Inside the ball of light, it was
tightly packed with multicolored sword energies and illusory sword energies, the figures of Ma
Fan and Xie Shan flickering in and out of sight.
Gasps rose at the ground. The two had displayed extremely high control to have suppressed the
sword energies to such a narrow space. Inside the light ball, the ling power and sword energy
density had reached a terrifying level. Any consciousness that wanted to peer in would be torn to
shreds.
Everyones hearts reached their throats. What was the situation like inside?

No one would have thought inside the ball where sword essences were blowing and killing intent
was spilling, the two people were chatting and smiling.

Whats the situation? Xie Shan said with a smile.


Ma Fan praised Xie Shan inside. The two had never cooperated before. Xie Shan was very strong
to be able to detect his intentions.
He didnt waste words. Theres a person crouching in the reeds.
Oh. Xie Shan was very surprised. He had carefully inspected the surroundings when Ma Fan
had asked him for a spar, but had not found anything. He did not doubt Ma Fans skill. Gasping
on the inside, his expression became serious. What do you plan on doing?
Kill! Ma Fan did not hesitate in saying.
Xie Shan was shocked at Ma Fans viciousness. A normal person would first think of capturing
the enemy alive in this kind of situation in hopes of obtaining useful knowledge through
interrogation. He hadnt expected that Ma Fan didnt think before he said to kill the other.
He did not object, and said briskly, Okay.
Ill flee and youll chase in the direction of the reeds.

The people on the ground saw a figure suddenly break through the ball of light, the sword
essences that made up the light ball collapsing. Sword energy pieces that could not be countless
lost control, and shot into the surroundings!
The surrounding crowd jumped in right and took up their flying swords to block these sword
energy pieces. These sword energy pieces might look broken and scattered, but in reality, they
were extremely sharp and deadly.

As the ball of light dissipated, Xie Shans hands were covered in a five colored light.
A multicolored sword about half a zhang wide, and three zhang long appeared above Xie Shans
head.
Go!
Xie Shans hands suddenly closed together, the enormous aurora sword turning to a thick
multicolored light that shot at Ma Fan in the air!
As the enormous aurora sword appeared, the expressions of those on the ground changed
slightly.
The terrifying presence spread by the enormous sword made everyone feel shock! When it
turned into a stream of light, the entire sky seemed to change color.
Ma Fan was in danger!
Just as Ma Fan appeared to have been hit by the flowing light, he suddenly disappeared.
Impossible!
The sword essence of the enormous sword was very dense. If it had locked on, it was an
extremely difficult matter to escape. Any kind of movement method would be slowed, no matter
how short the pause would be.
But Ma Fan did not show any pause. He disappeared in the air!
Having lost the target, the enormous sword light rushed at the reeds!
A grey shadow suddenly shot out of the reeds and moved to escape.
The enormous sword made an unexpectedly nimble turn in the air and charged at the grey figure.
The grey figure stilled slightly. He felt a bone-aching sword essence pressuring him in from all
side. The enormous sword essence had tightly locked onto him!
Damn it!
Shocked, he channeled all the ling power in his body towards the flying sword and aimed it at
the streaming sword light! With this attack, his own flying sword would undoubtedly be
destroyed.

He didnt have the time to mourn. He suddenly saw a grey flying sword silently appear at his
side.
His pupils suddenly expanded, his heart dropping in an instant.
He ferociously bit through his tongue, a flush of blood flashing on his face as he spat out a
bloody arrow!
If he could stop this attack, he could escape!
The other did not seem to have any intentions of dodging, the second flying sword welcoming
the arrow of blood. A joyous expression came onto his face. This arrow of blood was his secret
life-saving method. It was extremely powerful! If the other wanted to meet it head on, it would
definitely stop the enemy for a few moments.
Pia!
A clean and crisp collision, the joy on his face froze.
Everything in his vision became so slow, he could see it with the utmost clarity. The arrow of
blood collided with the flying sword, the expected retreat did not occur.
The arrow of blood was turned to a handful of bloody mist, a cloud of dust-sized blood droplets
that flashed in front of his eyes as beautiful as a painting.
A flying sword emerged from the bloody mist and entered his body.
It was as though he was hit with a thirty-thousand-catty hammer. A bloody mist floated out of his
body, the surroundings moved backwards with astonishing speed. A last thought flashed through
his mind
Such a heavy sword!
Translator Ramblings: The cast page has been updated but I forgot to include the pets this time.
Thank you for your comments.
Ma Fan is becoming someone that doesnt find trouble troublesome anymore. All of this is due to
Gongsun Cha who has really shifted his attitude around. Ma Fan is obvious as the teachers pet.
Xie Shan is powerful, and hes trying to find a way to carve his own spot into this group. The
events of this chapter are an exercise in teamwork.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Twenty Nine Formation Breakthrough

Chapter Two Hundred and Twenty Nine Formation Breakthrough
When Lil Pagoda led Zuo Mo into a storeroom, he was dumbstruck.
Inside the storeroom, the piles of Rotten Metal Silver were like mountains. Other than the Rotten
Metal Silver ore, there was a little pile of ore of various colors.
Where did this come from? Zuo Mo pointed at the little pile and asked Lil Pagoda.
Lil Black shot and climbed up to his hands, furiously waving its pair of antennae. Zuo Mo
instantly understood. So it was Lil Black. He complimented, Lil Black is very smart! He put a
lingdan on his palm. Lil Black used its forelimbs to grab the lingdan and cheerfully climbed
away.
Lil Pagoda was connected in mind with Zuo Mo. He could feel Lil Pagodas intentions of
wanting credit. As he saw its round and chubby body swing and tremble, he instantly grinned.
Feeling Zuo Mos happiness, Lil Pagoda was even more smug, twirling around Zuo Mo, shaking
its body so the gourds on the eaves rang.
Silly Bird was full of pride, but her eyes were staring greedily at the lingdan that Lil Black was
pinching. Gulp, the throat visibly swallowed. Zuo Mo coincidentally caught it, and instantly
roared with laughter, pointing at Silly Bird and mocking, You glutton!
Zuo Mo was not angry, and threw two lingdan at it. Silly Bird easily picked them up in her beak,
shook the feathers on her body, and, without a trace of shame, proudly left.
After he finished laughing, Zuo Mo looked at the mountainous piles of ore and felt a dilemma.
After making the Black Processing Meditation mats, his need for Rotten Metal Silver had
instantly decreased. However, if he didnt use the large amount of ore that was piled up here,
then it was such a waste. The grade of the Rotten Metal Silver was not high, but it was a
frequently used material. But if it was to be smelted and purified, it wouldnt take just a while to
finish with such a large pile. It was not worth it to spend the time.
Zuo Mo quickly thought of a solution to roughly process the ore.

He would make billets of Rotten Metal Silver, and then forge them again when it was time for
them to used. Metal billets would not take as much space as raw ore. Zuo Mo had to consider the
amount of space his dimensional ring had. The other reason was that he could use formations to
do rough forging which saved time.
Zuo Mo had never seen formations used specifically for forging, but it did not stop him from
making such a decision.
As his comprehension of formations deepened, Zuo Mos confidence increased. It was
undoubtedly an extremely interesting matter to do something that had never been seen before. He
decided to make a large formation that could forge all of the Rotten Metal Silver ore into billets.
Rotten Metal Silver was a third-grade material, and it was not hard to smelt. It did not require
Golden Crow Fire. Zuo Mo did not plan on using Golden Crow Fire. Golden Crow Fire might be
pure, but there was not enough, especially to smelt so much ore at once.
The fire formation Zuo Mo chose was of course not a low level formation like Li Fire Formation,
but a fourth-grade fire formation called [Jade Flame Formation]. [Jade Flame Formation] could
produce green flames that were more than enough to smelt the Rotten Metal Silver ore.
However, it was the first time Zuo Mo was working with so much ore. He needed to carefully
consider how to set it up.

Pu Yao and Gongsun Cha were fiercely fighting in War Chess.


To let this person and yao play War Chess anywhere, Zuo Mo remade the War Chess again. The
excuse was to make it a leveling kind of game. Then he threw it to Gongsun Cha. Gongsun Cha
guessed it, but was happy to play stupid. In any case, he just wanted to play War Chess with the
mysterious person.
Without anything to do, Pu Yao was naturally willing, especially when he saw how smug Zuo
Mo was recently, he became very discontent. His [Golden-Wing Great Roc Matrix] did not
produce the effect he predicted. Pu Yao vented all his displeasure onto Gongsun Cha.
The pitiful Gongsun Cha, having just managed to make an acceptable three section wave killing
charge and just as he reached the level of being able to use ten soldiers to kill five of Pu Yaos
soldiers, Pu Yao, without a second word, directly put out a new killing move the interlocking

wall style defense formation that was specially made to defeat the three second wave killing
charge.
Consequently, Gongsun Cha was defeated by Pu Yao so badly he couldnt find which way was
north.
Gongsun Cha was so abused that he wanted to die. He gritted his teeth with red eyes as he started
the game again.
Feeling that he had not vented the displeasure inside, Pu Yao did not hesitate in accepting.
Twelve matches, Pu Yao used twelve different tactics. Each time, Gongsun Chas forces were
completely obliterated, not one soldier remaining.

Even if Gongsun Cha was extremely hardy, and did not falter, he had been killed to the point that
his face became green. When he returned to the camp, Gongsun Chas black face, and the
terrifying pressure and coldness exuded by him made everyone shudder, their little hearts
jumping rapidly.
Gongsun Cha slightly raised his head. On his handsome face, there was a small dark smile.
The camp instantly became deathly silent.
At night, Gongsun Cha found Zuo Mo. There was someone spying on us today, he was killed.
He looked full of energy, without any of the displeasure and darkness he had during the day.
Did you find who it was? Zuo Mo stopped what he was doing.
A subordinate of someone called Venerable Chi. Xie Shan recognized him, Gongsun Cha said
unconcernedly. Supposedly, he has about one hundred people.
They have intentions towards us? Zuo Mo felt slightly surprised. It was the first time he had
encountered someone that had tried to find trouble with them of their own accord.
Maybe they feel that we pose a threat, Gongsun Cha pondered as he rubbed his chin.
Why dont we fight? Zuo Mo probed. He was very surprised. Gongsun Cha was a battle
maniac, but speaking up until now, he still hadnt mentioned fighting.

The group has progressed very quickly recently. Its best to wait a while longer, Gongsun Cha
explained. They had enough jingshi at the moment, and did not need to rush.
Zuo Mo also understood. After the formations had been carved, the equilibrium of their bodies
had been broken, the growth of ling power had increased. This situation would continue for a
while longer until they reached a new equilibrium.
He suddenly thought of a wonderful idea. I have a way for them to quickly increase strength.
Gongsun Cha hurriedly asked, What way?
But there is a possibility of injury. Zuo Mo hesitated.
That isnt a problem! Gongsun Cha said in a normal tone of voice.

Everyone smelt something different when Boss came to the camp again. Even though everyone
was training hard, but secretly, they were all paying close attention to Boss and Lil Miss.
Thinking about the inhuman treatment they had received yesterday afternoon
Even Ma Fan, the core who usually received the best treatment, couldnt help but shake.
A nightmarish memory!
They saw Boss start to work at a corner of the camp. Pieces of materials appeared in Boss hands
and then quickly turned to streaks of light that entered the ground.
So he was making a formation. Their hearts landed. Everyone knew that Boss was skilled in
formations.
Maybe Boss felt the camp was not safe enough after the spy had come yesterday!
However, many people felt that Boss caution was unwarranted. These recent days, they had
detected their improvement. After two consecutive victories, two victories where they were
fewer in number than the enemy, their confidence had exploded. The effect of the three
formations were too evident. Many people wanted someone to come to their doors so they could
try it out.

Zuo Mo worked for half a day before finally standing up in satisfaction.


He took out his five essence sword set. The five flying swords of different colors spun restlessly
in front of him. Looking at the five flying swords, he felt something that he didnt know how to
describe. After the five essence sword set had been completed, he had never used them in battle.
Now, he was using them to make a formation.
He was using the five essence sword set to make a formation as he suddenly recalled the sword
essence formation when Gongsun Cha said the group was in a period of increasing strength.
The sword essence formation of the sect had many transformations, and had been incredibly
effective to the growth of his strength, especially his understanding of sword essence.
The group of people under his command were growing their ling power. If he could give them
some pressure, it was beneficial for their progress. When Zuo Mo discovered that only five
people of the one hundred or so had comprehended sword essence, it strengthened his thinking.
It had not been hard for Zuo Mo to comprehend sword essence. At Wu Kong Sword Sect, both
Wei Sheng Shixiong and Luo Li Shixiong had comprehended sword essence. In the Sword Test
Conference, the majority of competitors had comprehended sword essence which had caused
Zuo Mo to unconsciously feel that it was not a very difficult matter to comprehend sword
essence.
How could one not comprehend sword essence?
With the five essence sword set as the core, and adding on some necessary formations, it was the
weaker version of the sword essence formation.
Other than adding pressure to the people, it could also help them comprehend sword essence.
Sword essence was shapeless, everyones sword essence was different. Many things could only
be understood and could not be passed on in speech. It was better to throw them into a place full
of sword essence. Even if he could not guarantee that they could definitely comprehend sword
essence, but it could greatly increase the possibility they could comprehend sword essence.
As to injuries, Gongsun Cha who thought of life like grass didnt care, how could this bunch that
lived so dangerously care?
The entire formation took up seven or eight mu. When the formation took form, sword essence
dominated, and killing intent was dense. In the sky above the formation, a black cloud formed,
thunder and lightning occasionally occurring. Peoples hearts shook.
When they saw Gongsun Chas faint smile, their hearts sank.

Zuo Mo had gained great inspiration from the creation of the sword formation. When he finished,
he ran to the storeroom to start to set up the formation to smelt the ore. He didnt move the ore,
using the storeroom as the dan cauldron and started to set up formations.
Many of the rules and restrictions now flew away. He felt free and unrestrained. Spells and
materials flowed from his hands, flying into the walls of the storeroom as though they had eyes.
He was completely in a trance, his mind open. Every detail of the formation continuously floated
up into his mind. It seemed that just as a thought would appear, the spell on his hands would
finish!
The change of his ten fingers became increasingly faster, like moving clouds and flowing water.
On the walls in the surroundings, profound character patterns spread out with amazing speed.
In just two hours, the walls, ceiling, and floor of the storeroom was covered completely with
characters.
The big formation was finished!
Zuo Mo dazedly stood motionlessly at his spot. His mind was still in that free and unrestrained
state. That feeling was just too wonderful!
A beat later, he gradually came back. When he swept across the complicated characters patterns
on the wall, his heart instantly felt full!
However, he quickly came out of this intoxication, shaking his head and smiling. Then he swept
the pile of other ores into his ring. After that, he took out three pieces of fourth-grade jingshi and
put them into the center of the formation.
He didnt even inspect the formation. He was extremely confident that this formation had no
mistakes!
Translator Ramblings: Some of you are really good at predicting at what Zuo Mo does with his
stuff. I have to admit I was always a step behind and got surprised many times in the story, Im
not very good at predicting what goes on at all.
Pu Yao continues to abuse Gongsun Cha who is the way to vent his frustration so Gongsun
Cha gets better at commanding. Then Gongsun Cha vents on everyone else and everyone trains
harder so everyone wins, especially Zuo Mo who caused all this in the first place by irritating Pu
Yao.

I cant remember the exact number but less than five percent of the people in the last chapter had
sword essence. They are all ningmai, and a lot of them probably have higher cultivation than Zuo
Mo does. I know Zuo Mo kept on saying how he was a little character and such before, but in
this group, he really had a privileged time with Wu Kong Sword Sect. Despite Zuo Mo, Luo Li,
and Wei Sheng comprehending sword essence early on and the variety of people from the Sword
Test Conference, sword essence isnt grass and the majority of people now do not have it. This is
just for ningmai and below though. Sword essence isnt essential to progress and become a
jindan. Its just the harsh environment of Little Mountain Jie which means that if you know how
to fight, you probably wont survive. Gongsun Cha lucked out in staying with Zuo Mo.
There was an interesting comment on how Gongsun Cha and Zuo Mo would deal with the spy.
Mjp thought that Xie Shan had the right idea to capture and interrogate which Zuo Mo would
appreciate while Lil Miss would want the kill. If it was Zuo Mo alone that faced this matter, he
may do a live capture, or kill just so he can scalp the person. However, Zuo Mo, as it will be
shown in future developments and as he said before, is not an expert in strategy as Gongsun Cha
is. He would actually leave the decision to Gongsun Cha on the basis he trusts Gongsun Cha will
make a better decision. Zuo Mo is the guy with the main vision, Gongsun Cha is the one that will
accomplish what Zuo Mo envisions.

This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Two Hundred and Thirty Sky Glass Wave
Venerable Chis mood was terrible. For a few continuous days, his subordinates did not dare to
even breathe loudly.
Big Kong had been killed. When the news had passed to his ears, even he had been suspicious
that he had heard it wrong. Big Kong was the most skilled at sneaking and spying, and had never
failed before. This time, it was just to spy. Theoretically, there should have been little danger.
He was both shocked and regretful. His shock was that the strength of the other group was
beyond his expectations. His regret was that Big Kong had died. That combined formations that
the Kong Family had were now halved in power now.
He still had a headache over comforting Second Kong and Third Kong. Their elder brother was
killed, how were the two brothers willing to let it go?
Just now, he had said all he could to barely manage to persuade the two. If they could hold back
for another month

Zuo Mo stood outside the storeroom. The storeroom was like an enormous fire cauldron, a warm
and serene green fire pouring out of the walls. Within three zhang, there was no feeling of
burning. The green light was so warm that one could not relate it to fire.
This showed that the setup of the formation was very successful. Every thread of fire power was
under control. Zuo Mo was very satisfied. Even he was slightly surprised that he could reach this
level. Precisely controlling every thread of ling power was one of the final goals of all those who
used formations. However, that was only in theory. It was not possible in reality. If the [Jade
Flame Formation] fire formation had been perfectly controlled, it only needed one piece of
fourth-grade jingshi, not three pieces.
The fire formation needed to be maintained for three days and nights. Luckily, Zuo Mo did not
need to stand guard over it.
Shrieking like that of pigs being killed could be heard from the far away camp. Zuo Mo patted
his head with some irritation. He forgot to add a sound blocking formation on the outside of the
sword formation. Yet when he thought about it, he did not continue the idea since other than
some voices, there was no other disadvantage.
It was better for Gongsun Shidi to deal with the matters of the camp.

The [Sky Wave Fist Scripture] had reached his hands for a long time. It took Zuo Mo some effort
to cultivate. The difference between fist scriptures and sword scriptures was very large. He had
never cultivated one before, and needed to start from the fundamentals. He had called Zong Ru
over again. When Zong Ru was told that he needed to teach Boss how to practice the fist
scripture, he instantly became dumbstruck.
Most of those that practiced fist scriptures were in Xuan Kong Realm. Kun Lun realm was where
the sects of sword xiu were, and Boss sword scripture cultivation was not low, why would he
think of cultivating a fist scripture? He didnt ask, but tried to do his best. None of what he
learned was some kind of secret. He had cultivated to ningmai mostly on his exceptional
persistence.

Yet the speed of Boss improvement made him gape in shock.


In the span of a few days, the fist scripture took form on Boss hands. Even if there were some
places that were not perfect, but this speed was really frightening. [Sky Wave Fist Scripture] was
the spell that he practiced the most, and had the deepest comprehension of. This fist scripture
was not complex. It was the exact opposite and could be considered simple, but simple did not
mean it was easy. It demanded highly of the body of the person who cultivated it, and the path
was one of one person defeating ten. There was not much technique. In Xuan Kong Realm, many
dhyana xiu that were of great age did not have the power to cultivate it to a deep level.
Behind the fist scripture, there were special chapters which described how to exercise the body
and bones. Most beginners needed to start from there.
Boss body was so strong! Zong Ru was shocked and slightly puzzled. Boss looked very thin,
and did not show any signs of strength.
It must be that Boss was exceptionally talented, he thought with some admiration inside.
Dhyana xiu that had no sect were even fewer in number than roaming xiu, their days were
extremely hard. Body cultivation required many ling medicines. There was a common saying of
seven-tenths scripture, three-tenths medicine. It could be seen how important resources were.
However, ling medicines were very expensive. The dhyana xiu of sects were better off with the
supplies from the sect. Dhyana xiu with no sect were a tragedy. Before ningmai, dhyana xiu had
nothing else to show except a body full of physical strength. They could only do things like hard
labor.
Zong Ru quickly adjusted his mentality. The scriptures that he practiced were all very average.
This caused him to not have any exceptional areas. However, what no one knew was that his
Samadhi was extremely deep. This was the most important reason he could reach ningmai. It had
to be said that this was the place that dhyana xiu surpassed all others. Everyone could cultivate
Samadhi, simple and easy to learn, it did not cost anything to learn. As long as you put the effort
in, you could cultivate to ningmai.
Those with extremely deep Samadhi would have strong minds and resolute determination. The
effect of things like illusory formations were lessened against these people.
Zong Ru did not hide anything. The version of [Sky Wave Fist Scripture] that he cultivated was
not complete. Many of the unique parts had been discovered by him through his own cultivation.
He was also willing to pass it on.
Other than the slightly displeasurable aspect of having jinzhi put into his body, the time that he
had spend under Boss had been the most comfortable days he ever lived. Everyday, he only
needed to cultivate. In the two battles, he didnt need to worry about anything. The division of

spoils was also extremely fair. Boss was the most generous of all the leaders he had worked
under.
But what he really could not resist were the formations!
He didnt know what the other people thought, but in his view, these three formations were
custom-made for dhyana xiu. Due to his body cultivation level not high enough, he had broken
through to ningmai but still had not formed an abhinna. With the three formations, he now had
the confidence of forming an abhinna within a year.
Privately, everyone was speculating that Boss had other formations.
Zong Ru did not like conflict, but he was not stupid. With such good benefits, he wouldnt leave
even if they threw him out. Not just him, many of the xiuzhe that had no sect were thought
similarly. No one was more clear than they were regarding the difficulties of not having a sect.
The world was no longer the same. Previously in Little Mountain Jie, as long as they did not
have much ambition their ningmai cultivation was enough for them to have an idle life. But now,
if they were not in jindan, then living alone was the same as asking for death.
These days, it was not a simple matter to find a good boss.

Zuo Mo did not know how many thoughts went through Zong Rus heart. He was fully
concentrated on practicing [Sky Wave Fist Scripture]. Zong Rus understanding of [Sky Wave
Fist Scripture] was deeper than he had imagined. He gained much from the others guidance on
many points.
Carefully savoring the change of ling power inside his body, he understood.
Right now, he was in the two mountain stage. His body looked thin, but in reality, his body was
extremely compact and suitable for [Sky Wave Fist Scripture]. The moves of [Sky Wave Fist
Scripture] were very simple, but had their unique qualities. In one instantly, [Sky Wave Fist
Scripture] was able to use all the ling power in the body and after revolutions in the arms, expel
it with punches. This demanded extremely highly of the users body. Otherwise, after the ling
power made several revolutions, it was enough to tear the channels and body apart.
After the ling power continued for five revolutions in his body, the ling power vibrated like
running thunder. Zuo Mo stood, his legs apart, breathing out as he punched!

A jade green fist energy left his hands. The fist energy expanded dramatically in the air and
roared like a tiger!
Zong Rus pupils suddenly expanded, shocked inside. This punch had eight-tenths of his own full
power blow! But compared to how long he had cultivated, and how long Boss had cultivated

Zuo Mo managed to get the feeling. The crux of this fist scripture was not the amount of ling
power, but the number of times it moved forward and in reverse! The more revolutions there
was, the longer the preparation time was, the stronger the fist energy!
He instantly became excited. Just now, after five revolutions, his channels had shuddered, but did
not respond in a major way.
Maybe he could add a few more revolutions?
As his mind worked, the ling power in his arms started to circulate again.
One revolution, two revolution, three revolution
Out of caution, he did not dare to add too many at one time.
Eight revolutions!
Green light came out of the skin of his arms. Adding on the black green metallic sheen that his
body already carried, what appeared was a black greenish metallic color.

At the side, Zong Rus eyes suddenly widened!


This was
Ha!
Zuo Mo shouted, and the green fist energy left his hands again!
Zong Ru was familiar with the bright green watery light that glowed. That was the sheen that
would only appear when the fist energy was concentrated to the extreme!

The green watery fist energy attracted the water energy in the air as they left the hands, the
watery energy furiously heading towards the fist energies. As the fist energies flew past, it left
behind a while trail of mist!
Zong Ru was stunned. This was so powerful when it just hit empty air. If it hit a person, then
what would it look like?

His thinking had not been wrong. Zuo Mo was more excited now that he had received
motivation. It had been so long since he had felt so excited!
Eight times was enough for him to feel pressure, but that was not his limit.
Maybe, he could see where the limit was?
When this idea popped up, it could not be stopped from taking over his entire mind. His hands
did not listen to him as they began a new round of preparations!
His thin arms suddenly expanded. The bright green sheen that had risen before dimmed instead.
Zuo Mos skin that was exposed to the air became black green, and seemed to have waves
rippling underneath.
Twelve revolutions!
The channels in his arms were in pain from expansion. It was like a bow pulled to the limit. A
gentle shake would cause Zuo Mos arm muscles to tremble!
His arms were heavy as though they were made up of lead. He felt extremely burdened. When he
raised his arms up, his movements were extremely slow, and occasionally shook and the big
drops of sweat on his forehead all showed that he was using great effort.
Zuo Mos eyes were open wide as though he was going to tear open his eye sockets. Sounds of
his teeth grinding came out of his mouth!
Break!
Using the last of his strength, his fists punched out!

There was no wind, no howling. Two green fists that appeared to be carved out of crisp green
glass drew out two green light streaks as they landed on a two person high rock far away.
The two fists were extremely detailed, even the joints could be clearly seen.
Pew!
The moment the fists and the rock collided, it created a cloud of dust, covering the entire rock.
Zuo Mo almost collapsed. He could not stop himself from sitting down on the ground. Without
the energy to look at the result, he furiously panted. It had been too dangerous just now! The ling
power in his arms had almost gone out of control. If he lost control, then his arms would have
exploded!
Thankfully
He still felt fear.

A gust of wind blew and the dust scattered. Where the rock had been, there was no nothing
except a half zhang deep hole.
There was no scattering rock, no explosive force, no shocking sound.
The rock had turned to dust in an instant!
Zong Ru, whose mind had always been strong and composed, paled, his eyes terrified!
That was
The killing move of [Sky Wave Fist Scripture] [Sky Glass Wave]!
Translator Ramblings: The people are definitely enjoying the sword essence formation. Danger
comes from Venerable Chi and we get a glimpse of dhyana cultivation from Zong Ru.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Thirty One Warning

This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Two Hundred and Thirty One Warning
Miss! The middle-aged person said respectfully, Weve just received a message from Jin
daren. They were attacked by an unknown force. Seven dead, sixteen wounded, Jin Daren was
also lightly wounded.
Oh, Mu Xis expression changed, who did it?
A female, origins unknown. Jin Danrens subordinates have already started a search, but there
has been no success up until now.
One person? Mu Xi was slightly shocked. She had not interacted much with Jin Bo Zhen, but
the few times were enough for her to conclude he was an experienced and calm person. With the
protection of an entire corps, yet he was still wounded by a single female. She naturally was
shocked. A jindan?
The situation is not clear. The middle-aged man clearly was puzzled as well. However, the
female is said to also be seriously wounded. Jin Daren hopes that Miss can keep this person in
mind
I hadnt thought that a measly Sky Moon Jie still had crouching dragons and hiding tigers! Mu
Xi sighed and then said, You can keep the incident in mind. If we encounter her, do not let her
go. The threat of a jindan is extremely high to us, however, our energy should be mostly spent on
the original plan.
This subordinate understands, The middle-aged man responded. He hesitated before saying,
This subordinate does not understand, if it really is a daren then why would they not try to get
in contact with us?
There are many possibilities. Maybe the daren is not in a good situation, or maybe he does not
want to see us. Mu Xi said unconcernedly, That has nothing to do with us. Our job is to find
that daren, even if it is just a trace. There naturally will be other people to deal with the
remaining matters.
Yes, this subordinate has asked too much! the middle-aged man hurriedly said.
Mu Xi waved her hand. Theres no need to be so careful. I have not been commanding for long.
I still need to borrow your experience.
It is this subordinates honor.

Seeing the respect on her subordinates face, Mu Xi was helpless. She suddenly recalled
something. Have we found the moon mo brigadier?
No, the other is very careful, and did not leave behind many traces, The middle-aged man said.
Oh, be careful. Mu Xi thought and then said, If you find the trail, do not enter into a conflict
with the other. This battle will be long, and will not end so quickly. Yao and mo should be allies,
not enemies.
This subordinate understands!

Zuo Mo had also started cultivating in this period of time. No matter if it was ling power,
spiritual power, or body cultivation, he was in a period of rapid progression. This was the golden
time to cultivate. He didnt dare slack off.
During the day, he cultivated ling power and his body, at night, he cultivated his consciousness.
He even temporarily pushed his studies into formations to the side. Formations were the core, but
it was a labor of time. In the short term, it could not increase his strength, but cultivation could.
[Sky Wave Fist Scripture] was just a very normal scripture, but with the mountain physique the
great strength produced motivated Zuo Mo.
Especially the [Sky Glass Wave], it was even more powerful than Ma Fans [Illusory Shadowless
Sword of Destruction]. What Zuo Mo needed to do now was to compress the amount of time
needed to prepare the attack, to complete twelve revolutions in a shorter period of time. This was
not impossible. Zuo Mo was already skilled in controlling ling power, but shortening the
preparation time would dramatically increase the burden on his ling channels.
Zuo Mo had to increase his level of body cultivation, he had to in order to tolerate the greater
load, and enable this killing move to have practical value. Otherwise, such a strong killing move
would be greatly discounted by having an overly lengthy preparation time.
Luckily, he was in the middle of a period of rapid improvement. As long as he did not slack off,
after cultivating for a while longer, his body should be able to tolerate him using this killing
move.
Of course, this also meant that other than going forward step by step, he did not have any other
methods.

In the camp, howls would occasionally be heard from the sword formation. Over the last few
days, people had gradually gotten used to them. Every person that went into the sword formation
would shout and yell like so, but once they crawled out of the sword formation, they would
immediately enter seclusion. Up until now, the remaining people that had not entered the sword
formation did not even know how scary the inside was.
They only knew it was very scary, very very scary
But they also knew there were many many benefits
Compared to those xiuzhe who felt a mix of terror and anticipation, Zuo Mo did not have any
discomfort at all. He was already used to these howls. When he had carved the formations onto
them, the howling that had started up under his hands was no less than the present ones.
Suddenly, the beast service card at Zuo Mos waist suddenly shook.
Hmm, Zuo Mos mind moved, and he unconsciously stopped his actions. This was the first time
the beast service card had done this. He hurriedly summoned the rainbow butterfly.
The Rainbow Mark butterfly flew out, made a nimble turn and started to fly towards outside the
camp.
There was a situation?
Suddenly thinking about how someone had been spying a few days ago, Zuo Mo was extra
cautious, and beckoned at Zong Rus unit which was closest to him, indicating for them to
follow.
The three exchanged looks and hurriedly followed.
Those that noticed this from far away all had admiring gazes. Zong Rus little unit really had the
best luck. Boss trusted them. Those with experience all knew that familiarizing their face with
the boss was directly related to future benefits.
However, even though Lil Miss was not at camp, no one dared to stop their cultivation without
Boss orders.

Gongsun Chas eyes were red as he stared deathly at the enemy which seemed like a tide.
He had already lost this match, but the other side did not have any intentions of stopping,
pushing him into a little corner to proceed with the last massacre.
It was not the first time he had encountered this kind of situation. Once he showed a weakness,
what awaited him was retreat after retreat. The other was like a dog with a bone, biting on tightly.
What followed after was fierce attacks. Any little crack would be hammered into large gaps in a
very short period of time.
Gongsun Cha was already used to the other pursuing and beating him.
However, he decided to give the other a little surprise this time!
Zuo Mo led the little team and followed tightly behind the Rainbow Mark butterfly. He rarely
used this third-grade ling butterfly. From the grade, this was a very fine top of third-grade, but
all three of its spells were related to poison. Zuo Mo rarely interacted with poison so he never
used this Rainbow Mark butterfly unless he was feeding it.
It was the first time that Zuo Mo had encountered the beast service card actively giving a
warning. Zuo Mo was very curious.
Lei Peng and the other two had similar ideas and formed a perimeter with Zuo Mo in the middle.
No matter what time, protecting Boss was their first job. Compared to Zuo Mos curiosity, the
three appeared as though they were facing a great enemy.
The rainbow butterfly flew extremely quickly as though someone was attracting it.
The mountain valley that Zuo Mo had headed to was in the mountains near the water. The
mountain valley curved through the mountains, and the mouth of the valley directly faced Stone
Door Beach.
The mountain valley was very deep. Zuo Mo had not sent anyone to explore since they had only
come here for Rotten Metal silver and did not plan on staying here for a long time. Right now,
the amount of Rotten Metal silver billets on Zuo Mos hands formed a mountainous stack. He
guessed that it was about time to depart from Stone Door beach. Zuo Mo decided to wait for the
group to all go through the sword formation before they left Stone Door Beach.

Even more, Zuo Mo had set down formations at the important places. Even though it was not a
large formation like the [Skyring Moon Chime Formation] on the Desolate Wood Reef, but these
small formations were not easy to overcome either.
Zuo Mo did not put any formations on Stone Door Beach. The camp was constructed on the
patch of sand. The view was wide from there, and everything could be seen at a glance. After the
spying incident last time, the guard by the water had become even heavier.
Was there some worldly treasure that was attracting the Rainbow Mark butterfly?
Zuo Mo felt that it was not possible. This had been the site of a sect before. If there had been
some treasure, it would not have been left for him to find. Suspicious, he tightly followed behind
the Rainbow Mark butterfly.
After twisting and turning, the mountain valley became much steeper, and the humidity from the
plants and trees grew.
The wariness on Lei Peng and the others faces grew even heavier.
Suddenly, the Rainbow Mark butterfly at the front furiously started to flap its wings. In the blink
of an eye, with it as the center, a very small whirlpool formed.
What was going on?
Zuo Mo stopped moving, even more puzzled. There clearly was nothing in the surroundings.
He suddenly thought of the specialty of the Rainbow Mark butterfly, poison!
Was there some poisonous object!
His mind moved and let the Rainbow Mark butterfly cast a spell on him. The Rainbow Mark
butterfly gently flapped its wings, and a five colored light emerged from Zuo Mos body. Zuo
Mos eyes were instantly covered in a layer of five colored light.
Zuo Mo instantly jumped in fright!
In front of his eyes, threads of black mist were being attracted by the Rainbow Mark butterflys
whirlpool, and surged into the whirlpool.
This was poison!
Zuo Mo suddenly realized and hurriedly pulled back the three people beside him. If it wasnt for
the [Rainbow Pupils], he wouldnt have been able to find this kind of poison! Even though he did
not know how poisonous it was, Zuo Mo couldnt help but feel fear.

A tasteless, colorless, and undetectable poison was more than scary enough! Even more, with the
Rainbow Pupils, the threads of black mist made Zuo Mos hairs stand on end.
Was there some terrifying poisonous organism nearby?
That wasnt right!
If there was something so poisonous, Xie Shan and the others who had lived here before should
have already been turned to a pile of bones.
The joy the Rainbow Mark butterfly passed on to Zuo Mo did not make him happy, but made
him felt as though he had fell into ice, his entire body went cold. He had recalled the other spell
of the Rainbow Mark butterfly [Poison Change]! The Rainbow Mark butterfly could absorb all
kinds of poisons to transform. The happier it was, the more deadly this poison was!
Poison was something the great majority of xiuzhe were wary off.
Some great poisons could even directly kill a jindan. They were extremely strange. Some
poisons could be merged with the ling energy in the air, and could not be detected. Some poisons
could pass through ling shields. There were all kinds of weird and wondrous poisons.
Without a doubt, this one was an extremely terrifying poison!
Someone was scheming against them!
No matter how stupid he was, Zuo Mo instantly realized it. Other than fear, killing intent
uncontrollably rose!
The three people beside Zuo Mo could not see the deadly poison in the air, but were sensitive
enough to catch the killing intent that spilled out of their boss. Their hearts shook!
Zuo Mo did not speak, and made a hand movement. After watching Lei Peng and the others
work together for so long, he knew some of the simpler hand movements. Then, he started to fly
up along the walls of the valley, using the Rainbow Mark butterfly as the border. The other side
of the boundary was filled with black threads of poison.
Zuo Mo decided to make a circle to avoid the poison.
He wanted to see who was scheming against them!
Translator Ramblings: Chun Yu Chengs pets are in the spotlight again. Remember the water
butterfly back when they were on the boat and the grey one Ma Fan had a few chapters ago?
Chun Yu Cheng is the silent contributor, he works behind the scene (or is it behind the words?)

Gongsun Cha is busy in war chess, and everyone else is roaring to go into the sword essence
formation. We also get a little peak at what the yao soldiers are doing.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Thrity Two Gongsun Chas Insane
War Tactics
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Two Hundred and Thirty Two Gongsun Chas Insane War Tactics
Pu Yao felt very good.
He felt a certain kind of satisfaction each time he trampled Gongsun Cha, especially after he was
defeated by Zuo Mo. That guy was getting more and more clever over time, and was not so
easily tricked. The price he paid with each transaction was increasing. If the conditions were not
what Zuo Mo wanted, it was basically impossible to persuade him. What made Pu Yao so
irritated about Zuo Mo was that if he felt it was not good, he would just ignore the deal, and not
be swayed no matter how Pu Yao provoked and willed.
Many times, Pu Yao felt he was a mouse pulling Zuo Mo, the turtle, and had no other solution.
Compared to the hardheadedness of Zuo Mo, Gongsun Cha was like a girl with her arms open,
allowing him to do as he wished. Every time he was blocked off by Zuo Mo, Pu Yao would find
pleasure from Gongsun Chas body.
This time, the battle situation was not different from any previous time. He had built an
advantage very early on. What came after was more of a game of cat and mouse.
Pu Yao had more than enough skill to be proud, especially in the area of directing battle. In his
eyes, Gongsun Cha was just a slightly talented youth. This kind of talent was not enough for him
to be shocked. Through the Thousand Year war, he had seen too many young genius battle
generals.
This kind of talent, oh, maybe he could only be the head of a little squad.
It was a pity Zuo Mo was not interested in becoming a battle general. Pu Yao smacked his lips
with regret. If that was possible, it would be so satisfying to abuse him! Pu Yao yearned for the
scene of Zuo Mo being totally defeated by him.

He had no interest in teaching Zuo Mo to become a battle general, but Zuo Mo clearly had no
interest in playing with him, so facing Gongsun Cha became his only choice.
It was so boring recently, Pu Yao sighed inside. He propped up his chin, his bloody pupil filled
with an empty loneliness. After spending thousands of years in the Yao Forging Tower, his soul
had been seriously damaged. Cultivation was not very useful to him at present. Previously, the
secret method that he had been placing his hopes on did not bring the benefits that he had
imagined. Right now, he could only pin his hopes onto Zuo Mo.
But that hope looked so infinitesimally small.
Maybe, very soon, he would dissipate like smoke. He smiled. He thought of the gravestone, and
the loneliness in his eye decreased.
Hmm!
When he swept across the battleground from the corner of his eye, he couldnt help but still.
An ambush?
A middle-sized troop of Little Edge Mantis mo suddenly appeared at the side of his main army.
Pu Yao knew a great deal about any kind of yaomo. Little Edge Mantis mo was not an exception.
Little Edge Mantis mo was a low level mo, the same level as White Scaled Attendants. However,
its offensive power was three times that of a White Scaled Attendant! In low level mo, the
offensive power of Little Edge Mantis mo was able to rank third.
Most mantis mo lived in the forests. They were natural blade wielders in the forest. After their
intelligence was awakened, the pair of blade-like raptorial forelegs would detach, and become
their best mo blades. At the same time, their instincts would also wake.
Compared to those high level mantis mo, Little Edge Mantis mo was one of the lowest mantis
mo, but even so, their strong offense was enough for them to be famed among low level mo.
However, compared to their powerful offense and grand blade mo skills, their defensive power
was pitifully low. The thin mo armor on their bodies was like paper, and almost could not stop
any attack. This was also the weakness of almost all the mantis mo.
Due to the characteristic of the Little Edge Mantis mo, they were frequently used to fill battle
technique units, not main attack units.
Gongsun Cha had actually used an ambush of a troop of Little Edge Mantis mo, and there was a
lot of them.

There was no time for him to think more. The black blade lights were like a tide crashing against
the shore, layer building upon layer. The entire troop was like a burning hot blade easily slicing
through butter.
Little Edge Mantis mos attack power that was beyond its power level was completely shown at
this time!
Pu Yaos army was cut apart at the waist.
This group of Little Edge Mantis mo was also damaged, with not even half remaining.
The troops that had been pushed to the corner of the battlefield attacked at the same time, like a
spring that had been compressed to the limit and exploded with all its power! The troop
formation changed from an orb formation to a column formation. The two troops attacking from
the left and right towards the two sides of Pu Yaos forces, a furious counterattack!
Pu Yao saw the sudden change in the battle but was not panicked. The others counterattack was
sharp and furious, but it was just the last vestiges of strength.
He did not hesitate in pressing his forces forward. The perimeter did not attack, but stuck to the
enemy, keeping a mid-range distance. He furiously calculated inside. He was waiting for the
other to run out of power. Once the other was fully expended, it would be time for him to
counterattack. The middle of his forces had already prepared. The following attack would be like
lightning and quickly destroy the enemy.
He believed that the others troops would soon collapse. This had already happened multiple
times previously.
He did not worry at all about the remainder of the troop of Little Edge Mantis mo. The fragile
defense of the Little Edge Mantis mo meant that they only had one chance to attack in such a
crowded battlefield. No matter how high their attack strength was, they would quickly be killed.
The two troops that had broken through towards his flanks, which were guarded by his troops, so
they had no chance of escape. Pu Yao smiled coldly inside. Gongsun Chas commander
definitely would be in one of the troops.
In the wargame, a loss would only be set when the highest ranking general was killed. Gongsun
Chas highest commander definitely was hiding in one of the two troops that had tried to break
away.
Yet suddenly, something shocking happened.
The Little Edge Mantis mo, of which half had been just killed, divided into two little groups that
charged straight into the back of Pu Yaos forces.

What was he doing?


Pu Yao was slightly puzzled. Two little groups, each group had less than twenty people. This
kind of Little Edge Mantis mo troop basically had no use.
Little Edge Mantis mo troops were frequently used to ambush, but their fragile defense
determined their extremely short lifespans on the battlefield. If the others formation was dense,
in order to complete the break through, there needed to be a certain number. The reason that the
group of Little Edge Mantis mo had been able to so easily cut through his forces had been due to
how thick the troop had been.
It was like a blade made from ice. It might be sharp, but it would quickly melt.
Such a small troop, other than causing some fatalities, they basically could not affect the
battlefield at all.
Suddenly, a blinding light suddenly lit up at the head of the Little Edge Mantis mo troop at the
very front.
That was not right! Those were not Little Edge Mantis mo!
Pu Yaos bloody pupil widened, his face full of disbelief!
Boom boom boom!
A string of powerful explosions. A gigantic gap appeared in Pu Yaos forces in the back half that
had been cut away.
This light Pu Yao recognized it.
Balloon Fish mos Suicide Detonation!
Pu Yao instantly realized what had happened.
Those two groups hadnt been Little Edge Mantis mo at all, but were all Balloon Fish, that used
illusions water mist illusions. That was correct. If it was him, he would also have chosen
water mist illusions. The illusions that were made up of countless threads of water mist would
tightly wrap around the person it was cast on.
Most importantly, the water mists could provide rich moisture to the Balloon Fish mo
Balloon Fish mo was something no one willingly provoked. They had hundreds of little sacks on
their bodies. Those sacs contained the water element power that they absorbed from the Endless
Ocean. If they encountered an enemy, these pure water element power would become their

weapon to attack their enemies. No one dared to provoke them, not because they were strong, but
due to their Suicide Detonation.
This was the last move of the Balloon Fish mo to kill themselves and their enemies. The Suicide
Detonation of the Balloon Fish mo was extremely terrifying. Even mo of higher levels would not
be able to easily deal with it. Adding on that their intelligence was not very high, and they were
not afraid of death, if they were provoked, what waited was serious damage to both sides.
But Pu Yaos reaction was a beat too slow. The second group of Balloon Fish mo burrowed into
the hole that had just been carved out by the explosions!
Another fierce string of explosions!
Pu Yaos expression was extremely bad. His rear forces had been very dense. The Suicide
Detonation of the two groups of Balloon Fish mo instantly increased his losses greatly!
However, he released a small breath inside. The battlefield this time only had some small sized
ponds. There would not be high numbers of Balloon Fish mo. Gongsun Cha should not have any
more Balloon Fish mo.
Wait!
Pu Yaos face changed again!
He suddenly realized that he had missed an important question.
The Suicide Detonation of the Balloon Fish mo was powerful, but it was rarely used because
there was a rule in war chess. In the regulations of the war chess, the Suicide Detonation of the
Balloon Fish mo was only possible under one condition
His eyes suddenly turned towards the two groups that were trying to break away.
The two groups that should have been furiously trying to break through, in Pu Yaos eyes, looked
somewhat loose.
That was right
The bloody pupil suddenly shrunk, Pu Yaos gaze was sharp and fierce!
Gongsun Chas highest commander was not in these two groups, but in his gaze landed on
the remaining Little Edge Mantis mo that was located at the rear of his forces!
There!

At this time, Pu Yao finally comprehended Gongsun Chas intentions. The forces that had been
forced to retreat back into the corner was bait. The ambush forces were the true attack force. This
had been a trap, an extremely convincing trap!
Just as Pu Yao realized that it was the Suicide Detonation of the Balloon Fish mo, he could not
react in time. No one had used this kind of tactic before. In war chess, the setup for the Balloon
Fish mo had been they would only agree to detonate only under the direct orders of the highest
commander! In the past, the Balloon Fish mo had always acted as the last barrier in front of the
highest commander.
Gongsun Chas intention had not been to break away, but to kill Pu Yaos highest commander!
For some unknown reason, Pu Yao felt a burst of coldness rise into his heart.
The entire battlefield, all the forces, they were all sacrifices! No, they were all cannon fodder!
The two troops needed to attract the attention of the front forces, so they had to get the other to
move closer, and fight for time for their own middle forces. What waited for these two groups
was only complete fatalities. As to the ambushers? There was only one outcome, death!
Even if Gongsun Cha managed to kill his highest commander, he could not charge out of such a
thick encirclement. To not attract Pu Yaos attention, the personal guard was disguised as Little
Edge Mantis mo. There could not be many people, and the outcome was naturally fated.
In other words, Gongsun Cha had never thought of winning this battle. He only had one thought
to die together!
This madman!
Pu Yao muttered, his eyes unfocused.
Translator Ramblings: Fang Xiang has left all of us hanging on Zuo Mos situation but we see
what Gongsun Cha gets to do. To clarify, what Pu Yao and Gongsun Cha are playing isnt one
battle with a fixed army, they are going through a whole battle campaign each time. So starting
from making the army, taking territory to setting up defensive lines.
For the balloon fish mo, I dont know what to say. They seem to be great bombs, but if you think
of them as people, then they are the most expendable troop on the battlefield. If they go onto the
battlefield, their only use is to explode so it must be terrible to fight if you are a balloon fish mo.
The only benefit is that your commander is going to help out your clan, if what Pu Yao said
holds.
The tags are there for the benefit of you guys. So if you just want to read Zuo Mos part, or Wei
Shengs, or Pu Yao (for the comedy), it is easy to do so.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Thirty Three Bloody Horned
Great Serpent
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Two Hundred and Thirty Three Bloody Horned Great Serpent
Zuo Mo suppressed the killing intent flooding his chest, silently flying along the walls of the
valley like a thread of smoke.
In his Rainbow Pupils vision, the black and forbidding mist turned. It was already a patch of
death. Even though the Rainbow Mark butterfly was doing its best to absorb the poison, but the
poisonous mist in the valley was too abundant and it did not make a difference.
Lei Peng and the others could not see the poison, and did not understand. However, the three
were not stupid. They instantly guessed that Boss had found something. They were both wary
and shocked. It was the first time they had seen Boss full of killing intent. The wooden face
without any expression, even his gaze, which did not seemed to change, but the killing intent that
occasionally flashed past made even the air around him solidify.
Boss did not make a sound as he flew at quick speed, making them unconsciously think of Ma
Fan. However, compared to Ma Fan who disguised himself as harmless, and unnoticeable, the
Boss may be silent, but he was like a black sword that could absorb light. Under concealment,
each body part was an edge!

At the other end of the mountain valley.


Third Kong looked with fear at the black gourd far away, and couldnt help but ask, Is this
going to work?
The black gourd was entirely glossy black, the mouth of the gourd open.
Second Kong stared at the black gourd and was slightly smug, but in the deepest part of his eyes,
there was a hint of terror. Dont worry! Wind will rise in this valley every night. This wind is

very strange, it will only blow along the valley, but not outside it. This Six Poison Black Gourd
was hard to forge. I spent a lot getting it out of Shortie Hus hands.
He immediately said, When we get revenge for Big Brother, well leave here immediately.
Where? Third Kong asked.
Well discuss after we leave here. This poison is extremely strange, colorless and odourless. If
one is poisoned, it is hard to detect at the beginning, yet nothing can save them. Second Kong
was slightly regretful. This Six Poison Black Gourd is powerful, but it can only be used once.
En, Third Kong nodded in response and said with fury, Venerable Chi is too dishonourable!
We three had put our lives on the line for him for so long. Big Brothers bones havent even
cooled, yet he actually does not want to get revenge for Big Brother.
Hm, exactly! A thread of hate came into Second Kongs eyes. Its a pity that there is just one
Six Poison Black Gourd. Otherwise, I definitely will also let him have a taste.
His eyelid suddenly jumped, his expression changing, Careful! His suddenly jumped up.
A flying sword silently brushed past his waist. His body suddenly lit up, a set of silver ling armor
appearing.
Third Kong was instantly shocked, and then flashed towards the side. Light flashed over his
body, and a red ling armor covered him.
Four figures silently appeared, surrounding the two.
They had been surrounded!
The two peoples hearts instantly sank.

Lei Peng and the other two had not previously understood the situation, but when they saw the
two people and the black gourd, they instantly understood.
Zuo Mo was very dissatisfied with the sword strike he had used in ambush. However, he didnt
have any good methods. When he had been in Wu Kong Mountain, he was only in zhuji, [Li

Water Sword Scripture] had been enough for him. However, in Little Mountain Jie, where only
ningmai remained, the power of [Li Water Sword Scripture] was somewhat unacceptable.
He lacked an ambush move. Zuo Mo knew that.
He started to examine the two people.
The style of the silver ling armor was very unique. It was made of thousands of fingernail sized
silver scales. A dark and cold serpent could be seen coiling inside and moving freely. Having
managed to block Zuo Mos strike, the ling armor was unharmed. It could be seen how strong it
was.
The ling armor of the other person was unordinary as well. Entirely deep red, it was possible to
smell the tang of blood from far away. Zuo Mo was slightly shocked. This ling armor had been
forged with a rare blood method. In Zuo Mos eyes, however, this ling armor was a half failure.
If it was properly made, it definitely would not have such a heavy odor of blood.
But the majority of his attention was on the black gourd not far away.
In the vision of the Rainbow Pupils, the black mist was continuously flowing out of this gourd.
This black gourd was extraordinary!
Zuo Mo did not hesitate despite his shock, shouting, Kill!
Lei Peng and the others instantly attacked!
Lei Pengs [Abyss Ghost Sabre Scripture], Zong Rus [Sky Wave Fist Scripture] and Nian Lus
[Lotus Sword Scripture] were all cast. The three had worked together for a long time, and
cooperated very well. In the camp, they were one of the strongest teams.
Second Kong and Third Kong reacted rapidly.
Second Kongs hands cast a spell. A circle of light appeared beside the two. At the same time,
Third Kong flicked his finger, and a dot of light perfectly landed in the circle of light.
The circle of light brightened, and exploded!
Lei Pengs sabre energy, Zong Rus fist energy, and Nian Lus sword energy instantly shattered
when they encountered the spreading light! The broken energies that had not lost all their
momentum headed at them like a wave!
These people were prickly!

Zuo Mo didnt dare to slack off, his right hand coming together and drawing in the air.
With a light hiss, countless electrical energies suddenly light up, and gathered at the air at Zuo
Mos fingertips like numerous silver snakes. A goose-sized lightning bomb formed, its body
flashing with a slightly red light.
[Yang Fiend Hard Lightning]!
The faces of Second Kong and Third Kong suddenly changed. Hard lightning! It was actually
hard lightning!
Even Lei Peng and the others couldnt help but inhale sharply, their faces shocked and fearful as
they stared at the little lightning ball at Zuo Mos fingertips.
Hard lightning!
Lei Peng and the others had never seen Boss fight before. In their eyes, the existence of this boss
was far too weak. Most of the time, Boss usually took the role of the quartermaster, which
caused Lei Peng and the others to be less afraid of Zuo Mo than they were of Gongsun Cha.
Seeing Boss show such an amazing hand at this moment, the shock of Lei Peng and the others
could be imagined. The one most composed of the three was probably Zong Ru, because he had
personally saw Boss use [Sky Glass Fist.]
However, at this time, he also could not keep his composure!
Hard lightning was not commonly seen, but there were occasionally people who used it. They
would not pale because they saw hard lightning.
What amazed them was the strength of control Boss had over hard lightning!
They could not even feel the unique presence of hard lightning, the destructive, extremely yang
and powerful presence!
This meant one thing.
Boss control of the hard lightning was amazing high!
Xiuzhe deeply loved the power of hard lightning, but accordingly, the difficulty of using it was to
a degree that most could only look with yearning. This little lightning bomb had none of the
presence of hard lightning, but no one doubted its power.
Second Kong and Third Kong knew its power and didnt dare to underestimate it, Second Kong
reached and slapped his ling armor, a large serpent flying out of the silver ling armor, growing in

the air. In an instantly, this large serpent had expanded to ten zhang long, its body as thick as a
water barrel, inspiring fear in those who looked upon it. Third Kong started chanting at the same
time, reaching out and pointing at the big serpent. A bloody light flew from his fingertip, and
entered the body of the big serpent.
The big serpent flickered out with its forked tongue, a pained expression floating into its icy
eyes.
Two bumps suddenly appeared on its forehead, the bumps quickly growing as though something
was going to grow out. Pew, two fresh coral red horns pierced through the bumps and grew out.
Hiss!
The pain in the big serpents eyes retreated, the icy snake pupils tightly looking at Zuo Mo.
Zuo Mos eyes did not move as though he had not seen the enormous Bloody Horn Serpent. He
carefully controlled the lightning bomb on his fingertip. [Yang Fiend Hard Lightning] was one of
the strongest killing moves in his arsenal. Zuo Mo had spent a lot of effort on it. Pu Yao had not
been sparse in his teachings. Zuo Mo had managed to make some variations on this one move of
[Yang Fiend Hard Lightning]. This lightning bomb was one of them.
There were more variations, but the difficulty of controlling hard lightning did not decrease in
the slightest.
[Yang Fiend Hard Lightning] was not like the other kinds of hard lightning xiuzhe used. The hard
lightning this moved used was the hard lightning that existed naturally in the world! The power
to manipulate the power of the world, this was the core of [Little Thousand Leaf Hands].
This also meant that Zuo Mo needed to be extremely attentive with his control. His
consciousness was still not large enough, there would be a clear time where his lightning bomb
would form. If his consciousness was large enough, he could take in all the hard lightning from a
one hundred li radius area. But right now, the area he could control was only twenty zhang in
radius.
Finished!
The last thread of hard lightning was absorbed into the lightning bomb. Zuo Mo did not hesitate
and flicked his finger!
The lightning bomb turned into a burning stream of light tinted with red as it charged at the two
people.
Nothing could compare to the speed of lightning!

The lightning bomb reached the two people just after it left Zuo Mos hands. The Bloody Horn
Serpent saw that he could not move to their aid in time so an unexpected scene occurred! The
lightning bomb flew to a distance three zhang from the two people, and could not move in any
further!
The swirling lightning bomb was forcefully blocked by an invisible wall!
The hearts of Lei Peng and the others shook!
A space shield!
Fifth-grade!
This Bloody Horn Great Serpent was actually a fifth-grade ling beast!
How was it possible!
Fifth-grade ling beasts definitely were not something a ningmai could deal with, but at the same
time, a fifth-grade ling beast was not something a ningmai could control.
But what was happening in front of them was not an illusion!
The invisible wall that stopped the lightning bomb was a space shield, a space shield that only
fifth-grade ling beasts could have! The space surrounding any fifth grade ling beast would
naturally form an invisible defensive area, like it was a wall of energy, which people called a
space shield!
This was a space shield!
Zuo Mo also recognized it was a space shield. He didnt have time to think further, the spell on
his hands changing with the flow.
Pia!
Like an egg being cracked, the lightning bomb instantly shattered.
Boom!
The compressed hard lightning inside the lightning ball suddenly exploded like an ancient yao
beast waking up from its dream. A destructive presence suddenly expanded!
In an instant, a thread of fear came into the icy snake eyes of the Bloody Horn Serpent!
Countless electrical snakes rampaged within the space shield!

The thick body of the Bloody Horn Serpent suddenly started to twist. Second Kong and Third
Kong were flicked into the air like bags of sand!
Bastard!
Beast!
Second Kong and Third Kong were full of anger and fear. They had never thought that the
Bloody Horn Serpent would not be under their control! The two of them exchanged a look and
did not hesitate in turning and fleeing.
Lei Peng and the other two seemed to wake up from their dreams. They knew it was not the time
for their minds to wander. If they were not careful, with this ferocious ling beast in front of them,
everyone would die here today.
Sky Wave Fist!
Abyss Beast Soul Consuming Sabre!
Lotus Flower Fall!
Three figures crossed as they charged at the Bloody Horn Serpent!
Zuo Mo tightly followed the furiously twisting Bloody Horn Serpent. Strangely, he did not feel
any terror.
There was a space shield over every part of the Bloody Horn Serpent. The yin fire bead could not
penetrate the space shield, and be fully effective.
Zuo Mos face was expressionless, his eyes as deep and serene as water, his two hands slowly
rising. His slow movements, in this frantic battle, was abnormally attention-catching!
Translator Ramblings: We are back to Zuo Mo in this chapter. The plot barely moves along, just
action.
I have a bit of a throbbing headache thats continued for two days. I dont actually remember
how I edited this chapter so sorry if you see any weird mistakes or typos.
Also, someone noticed a typo in my last chapter title!

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Thirty Four Fury and Killing Intent

This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Two Hundred and Thirty Four Fury and Killing Intent
Lei Peng and the others attacked at the same time.
At this time, they felt the taste of what it was like for Boss lightning bomb to not be able to
move forward. It was like there was an invisible ball of energy in front of them. The flying
swords and sabres in their hands were forcibly blocked. Destructive ling power flooded in, but
there was no response, like mud cows entering the ocean.
The three were very shocked. Before they were able to retreat, a force suddenly came. They were
not able to control their bodies.
Woosh woosh woosh!
The barrel thick body of the Bloody Horned Great Serpent twisted and turned. Like three
sandbags, the three people were thrown about.
Zuo Mo did not raise his head. Every stray thought in his mind had flown away at this time. The
arms that he had raised slightly wavered, the movements soft like the ethereal willow branches in
the spring.
Hiss!
The Bloody Horned Great Serpent opened its bloody maw, revealing the arm thick fangs covered
in saliva. A nasty odor spread everywhere. When the venomous saliva dripped on the ground it
would create a bloom of smoke. The almond yellow eyes of the snake were empty, so cold there
was no warmth, only the most instinctive desire to kill.
It stared at Zuo Mo, the killing desire in its eyes became even heavier. Just having suffered from
the lightning bomb, the Bloody Horned Great Serpent was full of hate towards Zuo Mo.
Hiss hiss hiss!
The snake tail covered in fine silver scales was like a quickly vibrating rattle, giving out a soulshocking sound as it shot towards Zuo Mo like an arrow! The space shield around the snake tail
also vibrated at high speed. Everywhere it passed, the air was cut up into pieces.
The souls of Lei Peng and the others who were still in the air almost left their bodies. They could
only see the snake tail! They were only able to see a ball of shadow, a shattered figure like a
school of fish made from many little fishes!

All three of them were battle hardened, yet an instinctive terror uncontrollably spread into every
corner of their body!
Even if Boss had a ling shield, he definitely could not stop this attack!
The attack of the Bloody Horned Great Serpent was close to the peak of physical power!
There were countless methods in the world, but no matter which kind of power, when they
reached the peak, all paths ended up at the same place.
The three felt as though they were in a glacier, the blood in their bodies freezing in an instant. If
Boss died, all of them would not be able to survive! The jinzhi on their bodies would restrict their
souls instantly!
Suppressing the soreness of his body, Zong Ru forcefully bit his tongue. A thick tang spread in
his mouth! Of the three, only he had a thread of energy. He had not wasted his training in this
recent while! In blocking this kind of physical attack, dhyana xiu had a natural advantage.
Ling power furiously circulated through his body, moving without regard for the consequences.
He was like a piece of lead, suddenly dropping down. Bam, a figure shot out of the dirt!
He suddenly appeared in front of Zuo Mo, the scattered afterimages at the center of his vision.
The frightening rattles did not have any effect on him now.
His mind was empty, focused on one aim, no shock, no joy, no fear, no anger, carefree!
A string of wooden Buddhist beads on his wrist slowly lit up, a warm and deep yellow light
covering his entire body.
Inside the light, Buddhist sounds rang, and countless flashing sutra characters swam.
Pew!
The snake tail forcefully whipped the golden light on Zong Rus body. The golden light instantly
dimmed, and wavered uncertainly like a candle flame lingering in the wind.
The Bloody Horned Great Serpent felt as though it had whipped a burning piece of metal, and
hissed painfully, the thick serpent body furiously twisting! Paing! Each bone was in pain, pain
that reached the marrow!
Pia pia pia!

The wooden Buddhist beads on Zong Rus wrist simultaneously exploded into dust, the yellow
light extinguishing. Zong Ru uncontrollably spat out blood and fell backwards!
Before he fell unconscious, he seemed to see two glasslike lights flash.
[Sky Glass Fist]!
Fourteen revolution [Sky Glass Fist]!
The fists that appeared like glass were so detailed that every line could be seen, just the same as
Zuo Mos fists!

Fear finally slipped into the emotionless yellow eyes of the Bloody Horned Great Serpent. Yet
the two fists that were so detailed they look like toys moved silently, but seemed to have a deadly
attraction. It could not muster up a thought of dodging.
Bam bam!
The two fists hit its space shield.
There was no earth-shattering sound. Its space shield, which had be so strong and never had been
penetrated before, was like a bubble which had been gently poked!
Impossible!
This was impossible!
For the first time, its body was exposed to the outside!
Terror had not even spread through its heart when a non-descript little bead impacted its
enormous body.
The almond yellow eyes became blank. A pale coldness furiously spread along its body with
astonishing speed.
Hiss!

The Bloody Horned Great Serpent made a sound as though it was being carved by a knife, yet
the wail seemed to have been gripped and cut off by something else. It felt darkness flood it and
drown it.

Zuo Mos mind was ringing. He could only hear the sound of his heartbeat, his eyes a blurred.
Everything on the outside seemed so illusory, like they were shadows without any feeling of
realism. Compared to the illusion of the outside, his body was extremely detailed in his vision.
He was able to see the clearly defined channels of various sizes, the blood vessels which were
like tree trunks, the strangely constructed muscles, and the ling power spread through his marrow
and tendons, and the earth energy that was repairing his body

Lei Peng and Nian Lu saw the remaining half section of the Bloody Horned Great Serpent, and
couldnt help but gulp, their eyes full of disbelief.
Fifth-grade!
This was a fifth-grade ling beast!
Boss was able to kill a fifth-grade ling beast!
The Bloody Horned Great Serpent had become an ice sculpture, motionless, its entire body was a
pale white.
Lei Peng and Nian Lus eyes suddenly shrank. The two stared with terror at the horns of the
Bloody Horned Great Serpent!
It was withering away!
Withering away at a rate possible to be seen with the naked eye!

Lei Peng did not know how many fights he had experienced, but the terror caused by the strange
scene in front of him was uncontrollable, especially since it was a fifth-grade ling beast. He used
all the energy in his body to turn his gaze away.
He didnt dare to watch!
It was a kind of pale white that was lifeless. It had a strange and abnormal powers. He was afraid
he would lose the last of his courage.
When his gaze moved to the other size, he instantly became alarmed. Boss!
Boss was still maintaining his stance after the punch!
A bad feeling suddenly rose. Lei Peng furiously flew towards Boss. After Lei Pengs shout, Nian
Lu also woke up. When he saw that Boss was unmoving, his expression changed dramatically!
Crash!
Like a piece of wood, Zuo Mo collapsed head first.
The two flew towards Zuo Mo. The jinzhi on their bodies had not acted. The two felt slightly
reassured. That meant that Boss was not fatally wounded.
They could not attend to the Bloody Horned Great Serpent that was withering. One of them
grabbed Zuo Mo and the other grabbed Zong Ru before they flew quickly towards the camp. The
two didnt dare to go through the valley. That black gourd had not looked as though it was a
harmless object.
The two of them were filled with fear. Who could have thought that two ningmai could summon
a fifth-grade ling beast.
A fifth-grade ling beast and a fourth-grade were just separated by one grade, but the difference
between the two was a deep abyss that could not be crossed. The space shield was just one of the
major differences. Ling beasts fifth-grade and above were completely protected in the space
shield. In reality, a space shield was just an area with ling power, a ling power area controlled by
the ling beast and had many abilities.
Fifth-grade ling beasts were existences that only jindan could touch.
Overtaking their fear was a furiously burning anger, one that burned to every corner of their
hearts.

When Gongsun Cha returned to the camp, his face was as dark and heavy as water. He had lost
the round! He had killed all the way to fifty paces from the commander of the enemy. Only fifty
paces! He was extremely furious. If he only had another small troop of Balloon Fish mo, he
could pull the other into the ground with him!
Gongsun Cha did not feel happy at all, it was the his first time he made the mysterious person
enter such a sorry state and yet his plan had not succeeded. Even though he would lose every
match, even though he should be used to defeat, but even so, he hated failure, had an
unparalleled hatred, even if the other was stronger than him, more powerful than him!
This battle definitely had given the mysterious person a shock, but so what? No matter how great
the shock was, but it was a defeat. To him, there was no meaning!
Damn It!
Gongsun Cha appeared in the camp with a dark face, and the atmosphere at the camp instantly
decreased. Everyone knew they could not provoke Lil Miss at this time!
Just at this time, when Gongsun Cha saw Lei Peng and Nian Lu stumble back with Zong Ru, he
felt all the blood in his body freeze!
Clang! He felt that his head was hammered and there was a period of blankness.
When the camp saw the wounded Boss and Zong Ru, the camp exploded, everyones expressions
changing.
Damn it!
Wasnt this taking their lives as well?
If Boss died, everyone here would not survive! Everyones heart was being frantically, their
complexions terrible.
Who f***ing did this?
Kill them!

Gongsun Cha woke up from his daze. He took a deep breath. The energy in his body that had just
left came back in a flood. The blood which had just frozen seemed to have suddenly started
burning, and rose up!
A blush came onto his face as though the delicate face could drip blood.
All of you, shut up!
The anger in his head was like the eruption of a volcano, the burning blood turning to a shout.
The tendons in his forehead, at the corner of his eyes, and his neck bulged like they were
earthworms, extremely fierce when paired with his ruddy face!
All the noise in the camp suddenly stopped, and entered a deathly sentence. Everyone was
frightened by the fierce Lil Miss.
What happened?
Gongsun Cha suppressed the boiling fury inside, his voice rough and controlled, like a black
cloud covering everyones hearts. The deliberate calm of Lil Miss made everyones heart
uncontrollably shudder.
Lei Peng and Nian Lu hurriedly narrated everything that had happened in detail.
When they heard that the two xiuzhe had summoned a fifth-grade ling beast, the camp was full of
gasps, and when they heard that Boss had killed this fifth-grade Bloody Horned Great Serpent,
everyone gasped.
In the deathly silent camp, everyone dazedly listened to Lei Pengs trembling voice as he
described how the serpent turned a terrifying pale white and then broke down into dust.
Its the Kong Brothers under Venerable Chis command. Of the same group as the guy who
spied on us last time, Xie Shan opened. Boss isnt seriously harmed, Zong Ru has much
heavier wounds, and needs to rest for a while.
His cultivation was the highest, his eyes the keenest and able to accurately judge the wounds. His
words caused everyone to relax.
Gongsun Chas expression did not turn even the slightest bit better. He generally understood the
situation of the Rainbow Mark butterfly.
If Shixiong really met an unexpected occurrence, then he himself
He fisted his hands, unaware that his fingernails had cut into his flesh.

He definitely would not forgive himself!


He raised his head, his eyes bloodshot. He relaxed his fist and the fingernails came out of the
flesh.
Organize and depart!
Translator Ramblings: Gongsun Cha lost all of his virtual army and still didnt manage to kill Pu
Yao. Now Zuo Mos state is pouring fuel onto the fire.
Thank you guys for your comments.
WanderingGummiOfDoom was super and revised a whole bunch of past chapters. Im just slow

in writing, I wont do it, which is why the revisions of my first translation have been sitting on
my computer for months.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Thirty Five The Butchers Three
Section Wave Killing Charge
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Two Hundred and Thirty Five The Butchers Three Section Wave Killing Charge
Zuo Mo laid on the ground, the three Golden Armor Guards by his side.
His body was like a sponge, continuously absorbing earth energy from the ground. Fourteen
revolutions of ling power was over his bodys limit. The terrifying ling power had almost
destroyed his arms.
The uncontrolled ling power travelled everywhere inside his body. The earth energy was like
paramedics, trying their best to repair Zuo Mos body.
Destruction, repair, destruction again, repair again
Zuo Mos body was like a battlefield, the ferocity of battle almost unimaginable. His limbs
occasionally convulsed which looked extremely strange. No one noticed that as his body was
repeatedly damaged, the impurities in his flesh and blood would be tempered immediately.

The earth energy that came after was like glue that was full of life, reconstructing the broken
flesh.
This was just the start.
The Golden Crow Fire was also rampaging. When it was completely free from suppression, it
silently spread, merging with the ling power and started a new round of damage of even greater
magnitude.
The five element glass bead detected danger, and automatically turned, absorbing ling power
from the surroundings. At the same time, threads of pure five element base source were released.
They mixed with the earth energy, and repaired Zuo Mos body.
The mo matrix on Zuo Mos body flickered on and off. The three Golden Armor Guards by his
side did not move. They were like statues, standing with their swords, motionless.
Suddenly, Zuo Mos frozen and wooden face started to boil like boiling porridge, appearing
extremely frightening.
The Golden Crow Fire and the ling power had entered his face, and started to rampage and
destroy. The earth energy and five element base source arrived at their tail, and the two sides
started a new skirmish on his face.
In the sea of consciousness, Pu Yaos expression was heavy.
The present situations complexity was far beyond his predictions, and was outside of his limits
to deal with. His blade like narrow lips did not have any of the usual scorn and mockery, only a
deep bitterness and helplessness.
After he had escaped the Yao Forging Tower, his strength had started to slip away.
Even though he had predicted it beforehand, but he had not thought that the power would slip
away so quickly. His present power was not even a quarter of what it had been when he had first
met Zuo Mo.
This bit of strength was not enough to support him, to choose another person to hold his soul.
His expression was unparalleled in its ugliness, ferocity flashing through his eyes. The hatred in
his heart had no place to vent. He could only try to think and recall if there was any spell or
secret method that was suitable for Zuo Mos present situation.
Pew pew pew!

Zuo Mos face suddenly exploded, blood and gore flying. His face had been forcibly changed by
someone before. There were many blood clots and flesh tumors below his skin. That was the true
cause of his paralyzed and wooden face. The Golden Crow Fire and ling power mixed together
into a destructive force that swept away these blood clots and tumors.
The earth energy with the five element base source was like a loyal bodyguard. Everywhere it
passed, the exposed flesh stopped bleeding, and new flesh grew at a rate visible to the naked eye.
The same battle was happening on every corner of Zuo Mos body.
Flesh continuously exploded, and then regrew. Gradually, the blood scabs on Zuo Mos body
became increasingly thicker.
In the sea of consciousness, Pu Yao was slightly panicked. A thought flashed through his head.
When he recalled a previous situation on Wu Kong Mountains, he suddenly turned around his
face, and started to swear at the gravestone.
What are you waiting for?
The gravestone shrouded in the black clouds suddenly sucked the surrounding black clouds into
it.
The black gravestone became even more deep and dark, the surface of the gravestone was black
but was as shiny as a mirror.
Suddenly, there seemed to be a shadow moving on the gravestone.
Gradually, the shadow became clear on the gravestone, it seemed like the shadow of a person!
The figure was very indistinct, and the features were not clear. As the figure appeared, a vast
presence suddenly appeared.
Pu Yao dazedly looked at the indistinct yet familiar figure on the gravestone. It was as though a
body paralysis curse had been cast upon him. He was motionless.

The mountain valley twenty li ahead is Venerable Chis base. Xie Shan was very familiar and
naturally knew because he had been in conflict with Venerable Chi for a long time. He was also

full of fear. If something really had gone wrong with Boss, he would have died without an
explanation.
Gongsun Cha did not hesitate, and said darkly, Kill!
As his voice landed, the chisel shaped attack formation of the moving group instantly changed.
The two wings spread out like two gigantic claws that viciously pushed forward.
Such a ruckus, the other side naturally was prepared.
Seven xiuzhe flew up and welcome them. One of the people opened and inquired, You
Kill! Gongsun Cha did not have the interest in chatting with the other and interrupted him.
Three little teams were like three bolts of lightning. Without a word, they leapt at the seven
enemies.
The seven xiuzhe evidently had not expected that Gongsun Cha would not even give a greeting
before starting the fight, and instantly panicked.
Enemy attack! Enemy attack!
One of the xiuzhe had learned a spell similar to [Sky Thunder Sound]. When he shouted, it
echoed through the mountains! The enemy had came brimming with killing intent. The seven
people quickly worked together in defense.
This place was their base. If they could hold the other side back for a moment, their
reinforcements would arrive. All of the xiuzhe that could survive in Little Mountain Jie were oldtimers experienced in fighting. Everyone knew what they had to do, and what they should not do.
Form the formation! The leader shouted.
The other six moved into position, their flying swords and talismans out.
But right after, the expressions of the seven changed!
A little team from the other side charged at them with no signs of slowing down!
The three people were like a little chisel, their flying swords in their hands pressed to the
maximum, each spitting with long sword energies! The three sword energies crossed and merged,
forming a terrifying sword energy two zhang wide, and ten zhang long!
Woo woo woo!

The sound of the enormous sword energy tearing the air shook their souls!
The seven people had never expected the enemy to attack with such determination, without
holding anything back! That was insane! While this kind of attack would be powerful, but it
meant sacrificing any variation. If the enemy was able to dodge or bear it, these three people
would become calves waiting for slaughter.
The seven people unconsciously chose to dodge.
It was unwise to face such a ferocious attack head on.
The seven people that scattered did not realize the formation they had just formed instantly
crumbled.
The three people holding the gigantic sword energy were like a enormous and sharp sword, and
could easily slice through the seven people. The two other little teams that followed tightly after
were like panthers that smelt blood, and silently followed. The seven people that had been
scattered were quickly divided into several groups.
At this time, there were xiuzhe continuously flying from the valley into the sky.
Without Gongsun Cha needing to order, the teams on the two flanks started to attack.
Three section wave killing charge!
With the little team as an unit, one wave charged forth after another as though there was no end.
Each team would not linger in battle with each charge, and would leave the space for the team
behind them.
The three section wave killing charge was the first battle tactic that Gongsun Cha had learned.
Up until now, it was the tactic he was most familiar with using. Compared to the past, it really
had completely transformed, and was in a completely different style than Pu Yaos three section
wave killing charge.
Pu Yaos three section wave killing charge emphasized strength. It was like a heavy hammer
thirty thousand catties heavy, using force to break technique.
Gongsun Chas three section wave killing charge emphasized transformations. It was especially
skilled at dicing and dismembering the enemy.
If Pu Yaos three section wave killing charge was a large hammer, Gongsun Chas three section
wave killing charge was like a little hammer and a little knife. He first used the knife to
dismember the enemy, then used the little hammer to smash the pieces. In terms of brute power,

his three section wave killing charge was far from Pu Yaos, and many places were raw and in
need of perfecting, but in terms of efficiency, he had reached a certain standard.
Several little teams continuously charged and killed among the ranks of the enemy like sharp
daggers!
Dismemberment, it was the work butchers were most skilled at.
The former butcher coldly stared at the chaotic battlefield like he was looking at the corpse of a
ling beast. The pathways for each slice was so clear in his eyes.
He continued to pass down orders of minor adjustments through the Same Heart Necklace. He
had left the Golden Armor Guards behind to protect Shixiong. The target of the Same Heart
Necklace had therefore switched to the little teams. Under Gongsun Chas continuous
adjustments, the entire team was like a fine-tuned machine, working faster and cooperating
better.
Compared to the scattering and looseness of the enemy, the xiuzhe under his command
maintained three people battle units. This caused them to always have the advantage of numbers
in battle.
After a while, Gongsun Cha stopped his adjustments, looking at the battlefield without a word.
They had securely taken control of the battle!
No matter if it was in terms of battle tactics or in strength, the xiuzhe under his command held
the advantage. This recent while had been a period of rapid growth for those xiuzhe. With large
supplies of jingshi, the Black Processing Meditation mat, and the engraved formations, each
persons strength had received a certain degree of improvement.
With the fury of almost having died without knowing, with Lil Miss dark stare like a blade at
their backs, every team went crazy. No one dared to keep anything back, and no one would do
so.
Xie Shan stood guard next to Gongsun Cha. As the person with the highest cultivation in the
camp, he had been promoted to Lil Miss bodyguard.
If it had been in the past, for the life of him, he would not have believed that he would act as
someones bodyguard one day. Much less a person who was so young and only of zhuji
cultivation.
However, he felt no discontent right now. Looking at the xiuzhe to his side that was in control of
the battlefield and the dazzling battle tactics, he sighed in admiration.

This was skill! Skill that he definitely could not possess!


In this chaotic time, individual power was so insignificant. This kind of skill meant true power!
He looked with slight sympathy at the xiuzhe who were working to resist on the battlefield.
Xiuzhe dropped frequently from the sky like kites who had their string suddenly cut. Falling
down from such a high elevation, unless it was a dhyana xiu skilled in body cultivation, other
xiuzhe had no chance of survival.
Venerable Chi raised his head to look at the sky, his face ashen.
Just a few more days
He had not expected the other to have attacked them at their base at such a crucial time, and had
not expected the other to be so powerful, and for his own subordinates to not even stand up to
one attack.
He recognized Xie Shan who was far away, but his gaze landed more on the young person
standing next to Xie Shan.
He knew that he had no chance of flipping the situation.
Let us surrender!
Venerable Chi said three words that he didnt dare believe he said.
Translator Rambings: Pu Yao finally admits some things to himself. I hope this explains some of
his actions. With Lil Miss and the rest in such a fury, this battle does not require more than one
chapter. Their training really shows in this chapter compared to the untrained people.
Zuo Mo is undergoing another transformation. I feel the rate of his growth is actually growing
faster, which is true to what Fang Xiang wrote in another chapter, but Im so unused to it. We
also get an explanation for why his zombie face is so wooden and paralyzed. Its all scar tissue!

and Thirty Six New Life?

Chapter Two Hundred and Thirty Six New Life?

Surrender was a very normal matter in Little Mountain Jie. It was extremely hard to survive here.
The result of fighting to the end was injuring both sides. Once a groups power was damaged,
they would quickly be swallowed up by another group.
Surrender became an implicit agreement between the factions in Little Mountain Jie. Those that
did not understand how to surrender died quickly. Those that did not accept surrender also died
quickly. Fight and surrender was the bread and butter of life. There were all kinds of people
under Venerable Chis command. In Little Mountain Jie, anything like loyalty was an illusion, no
one would speak of it.
Seeing the situation was not to their benefit, it was normal to him that the remaining people
would surrender.

Xie Shan suddenly went next to Gongsun Chas ear and said something in a low voice. He was
very joyful inside. He hadnt expected Venerable Chi to have something as good as this!
Gongsun Chas face was dark as he listened to the end without saying a word.
Just at this time, the surrounding xiuzhe suddenly shifted restlessly.
Noticing the shock and fear on everyones eyes, Gongsun Cha raised his head to follow their
gaze. His pupils suddenly shrunk, his dark face changing instantly.
At some unknown time, the blue sky where the sun was shining brightly was filled with stars of
various sizes.
There was none of the brightness of the stars at night time, but every single one was extremely
distinct. Even the blinding sunlight could not steal their light.
Gongsun Cha felt a bone-piercing cold rise from the bottom of his feet.
So strange! Why would stars appear in the daylight? Someone asked with puzzlement.
Dunno. Its an apparition, probably not anything good. The person responding was full of
worry.
Everyone discussed in low voices. Even those xiuzhe who had surrendered and were tied up put
their attention on the sky above their heads.

Gongsun Cha did not say anything. His entire body felt cold, his limbs numb. It was like there
was a heavy rock on his chest.
Stars in Daytime!
He did not know what its appearance really meant, but he clearly remembered the first time he
saw the Stars in Daytime in Sky Moon Jie, the nightmarish terror that made his bones tremble.
Now, Little Mountain Jie had a repeat of Stars in Daytime.
For some unknown reason, terror took over Gongsun Chas body. He forced himself to lower his
head, tearing his gaze away from the strange sky.
After a while, his feelings calmed. Such a strange apparition definitely had nothing to do with
him, why should he care? His attention landed back on the xiuzhe who had surrendered.
The other xiuzhe had calmed down after than Gongsun Cha did. In their minds, even the
strangest apparitions could not compare to the enormous change in Little Mountain Jie.
Seeing Gongsun Chas attention land back on the xiuzhe, Xie Shan hurriedly asked, What to do
with these people?
Kill them, Gongsun Chas expression was calm as he lightly said.
Kill all of them? Xie Shan was startled and asked instinctively.
What? Gongsun Cha tilted his head to look at Xie Shan.
Meeting Lil Miss calm and slightly delicate gaze, Xie Shans heart froze as he unconsciously
avoided the gaze.
Gongsun Chas orders were loyally carried out. However, everyones faces were slightly
unnatural. They were shocked at Lil Miss viciousness. Killing was extremely normal to them.
Who hadnt killed? But massacring captives
But when they saw the calmness on Gongsun Chas face, no one dared to speak.
From beginning to end, Gongsun Cha personally watched as all the captives were killed, his eyes
not even blinking. That was truly killing without blinking! Xie Shans scalp felt numb. The faint
and bashful smile on Lil Miss face made him only have one thought run!
Suppressing the urge to turn and run, he was full of regret. Why had he showed off? Now, he was
Lil Miss personal body. Xie Shans mouth felt bitter.

Gongsun Cha clapped, the usual shy smile on his face. Everyone performed well today.
No one made a sound.
Five teams stay and guard here. Everyone else, return to camp, now. He did not look at the
corpses on the ground, turning and leaving.

Clear Sky Sect was built on top of a snowy mountain, the jie river roared past here as it entered
Sky Water Jie. Among the white snow, tall towers stood, all of them built from second-grade
snow crystals, extremely extravagant! Six thousand steps of ice stairs curved down the mountain.
At the bottom end of the ice stairs was a crystal tablet made from a whole piece of snow crystal
seven zhang tall. Written on it in cinnabar ink were two bright words Clear Sky.
At this time, Clear Sky Sect was a mess.
What happened?
I dont know! Old Forefather rang the warning bell!
Then something major definitely happened!
Stop wasting effort guessing. Lets move faster. Well be punished if we are late.
Disciples of various ages hurried to the big hall. In a short while, all the disciples had gathered,
an entire patch of silent black. The sect leader and others were standing on the side.
On the meditation mat at the very front was a xiuzhe whose hair was loose. He was wearing a
snowy-white robe, appearing about forty or so. He was Clear Sky Old Forefather. The remaining
and only jindan of the Clear Sky Sect.
Clear Sky Old Forefather slowly started to speak, his voice clear.
Just now, there was a worldly apparition. Stars in Daytime, it is an inauspicious omen.
Once the words came out, the crowd fell into a fervor. Many people had seen the Stars in
Daytime just now, but no one had expected that even the Old Forefather was also alarmed.
Send someone to investigate! Clear Sky Old Forefather said, his words absolute.

Yes! The sect leader lowered his head in compliance.


How are the recent supplies? Clear Sky Old Forefather asked, Have the ling grains from
Hundred Flower Alliance been delivered on schedule?
The sect leader said respectfully, They have been delivered at the scheduled time. They hope
that they can trade for some third and fourth-grade gold element materials, and have given
extremely generous prices. They are willing to use a batch of third- and fourth-grade talismans to
trade. They are also willing to give Old Forefather a sixth-grade Begonia Lantern in tribute.
Clear Sky Old Forefather said in a deep voice, Hundred Flower Alliance are skilled in entering
the path through flowers. I have heard of their Begonia Lantern before, its not a bad talisman.
However, they want gold element materials, not wood element materials?
Yes, this disciple does not understand, but they are truly purchasing gold element materials, the
sect leader responded.
Clear Sky Old Forefather thought and then said, Send them a reply. Find a place inside the jie to
open a market and sell ling grains. Get Hundred Flower Alliance to send a group of xiu slaves.
We will sell them to other people, and use ling grains to purchase materials.
Old Forefather is wise, the sect leader flattered.
How many ningmai disciples does our sect have?
Old Forefather, there is one hundred and twenty people.
Too little! Clear Sky Old Forefather shook his head, Go recruit a group of ningmai and make
them the Outer Hall. Their job is to take care of the affairs of the jie.
Yes!
You shall personally go to Sky Water Jie. Clear Sky Old Forefather thought and then said,
You are to do two things on this trip. The first matter is to see if there is a chance to meet and
ally with other factions. The other is to buy a secret paradise to become another home for the
sect. Disciples of the sect who show promise shall all go to the second home to cultivate. If our
sect can have a few more jindan, this Little Mountain Jie will become our backyard.
This disciple understands! The sect leader was full of admiration. Old Forefather was a
visionary. If these matters could be accomplished, Clear Sky Sects rule of Little Mountain Jie
could not be shaken.
The ling energy of Little Mountain Jie had withered, but the mines had not been exhausted. It
was more than enough for this one jie to support Clear Sky Sect!

Do not worry. I will stay and guard for you. Old Forefather waved his hand.

Zuo Mos vision was completely black, a rank odor continuously burrowing into his nose.
Where was this?
Had he died?
That wasnt right, he hadnt died.
After thinking for a while, he finally recalled fighting with the Bloody Horned Great Serpent.
That big guy was truly strong. Fear still lingered.
Impulsiveness was really a flaw! Why had he not managed to control himself? He made a deep
self-reflection, and built his resolution that he would turn and run the next time he met something
like this.
It had seemed as though that he had killed the big guy, he thought back uncertainly.
Many of the memories were blurry. After thinking for a while, he had not discovered anything.
Itchiness occurred all over his body, pulling him from his memories. His attention came back to
the question of where he was.
He did not move, but controlled his consciousness. After he started practicing [Embryonic
Breathing Spiritual Cultivation], it had become his habit to always use the consciousness to
investigate when he encountered something.
Hm!
Why was it like this?
If he did not clearly know that this was his body, he definitely would not believe the body in
front of him had any connection to him.
It was full of vitality!

Extremely dense vitality!


The earth energy inside his body was so thick it was almost in liquid form, and flowed through
every corner of his body. A blooming vitality, strong life force. Zuo Mo could clearly feel that
intoxicating feeling.
What shocked him anymore was that he could not find any bit of familiarity with the body.
Blood, flesh, sinew, bone
It was completely unfamiliar. It was like a brand new body, a new and perfect body.
At the same time, he found the shell that was tightly covering his body! So strange, why would
he be inside a shell?
He reflexively pushed out. Pia, the shell cracked. Light streamed through the crack. It was
slightly blinding. Fresh air flowed into the shell. Zuo Mo felt it was unspeakable pleasurable. He
greedily breathed in and pushed out!
Bam!
The shell instantly shattered into pieces and flew in all directions.
Zuo Mo stood naked in the air. The fresh air, the bright light, it made him feel like he was reborn.
It really was comfortable. He could not help but breathe in deeply.
At this time, he finally noticed the Golden Armor Guards standing nearby with their swords. So
he had came back to camp. His heart relaxed.
Suddenly, he detected many people were flying near on the outside. It was Gongsun Shidi. He
bent his head and scanned his bare body, instantly paling.
Who took off ges clothes?
He hurriedly found a set of ling armor inside the ring and rapidly put it on.
Just as he finished dressing, the door opened with a bang. Gongsun Cha rushed in with a group
of people.
Gongsun Cha narrowed his eyes. Who are you?
Zuo Mo stilled, his heart discontent. Shidi, you dont even recognize me?

Gongsun Chas expression froze on his face. The other people also had strange expressions like
they had seen a ghost.
The response from everyone made Zuo Mo realize something. He unconsciously reached to
touch his face.
It was like his hand had been bitten by a snake, shrinking back lightning fast. His expression
changed dramatically!
This feeling was not right
Without another word, his hand flipped, and a ball of mist floated at the center of his palm,
quickly turning to a smooth water mirror.
Zuo Mo was dumbstruck.
Translator Ramblings: I didnt realize so many of you were interested in Zuo Mos face.
Fang Xiang slips in more information about life in Little Mountain Jie. It is not a good life right
now. Winning is very important. We also meet Clear Sky Forefather, the jindan that Zuo Mo has
to defeat in order to leave this jie. The Clear Sky Sect is has its own plans.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Thirty Seven Reconstructing The Body
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Two Hundred and Thirty Seven Reconstructing The Body
On the water mirror was an unfamiliar face.
What the! Zuo Mo jumped in fright, and then rubbed his face in curiosity before turning and
inspecting in the mirror. After a long look, he made a final conclusion, Alright, much better than
before!
His heart felt slightly reassured. A rock in his heart landed. This face was not handsome, but at
least, his nose was a nose, his mouth was a mouth.
Truthfully, this face was slightly average, almost immature. Bald head, thick brows, and thick
lips. His body was also thicker than before. He looked like a nice and obedient child.

Was this what he had really looked like originally? He was puzzled, and then saw a puzzled
expression on the face in the water mirror. He felt slightly unnatural. He had become accustomed
in the past years to that zombie face that could never have an expression, and used to hiding his
thoughts under that zombie face. Now, his expressions had become more varied. The emotions
inside naturally could be expressed on his face. He felt it was extremely strange.
With curiosity and novelty, he stared at the unfamiliar yet vivid face in the water mirror.
He decided to ask Pu Yao if this was his original appearance. This question was extremely
important to him.
Gongsun Cha looked at Zuo Mos hand, and when he saw the several dimensional rings, he
released a breath. It really was Shixiong! Seeing Shixiongs appearance, he also knew that
something had happened. At this time, Shixiong needed quiet. He made a silent gesture, and took
everyone else to retreat out. Changing appearances was not a rare matter for xiuzhe.
Once everyone left, Zuo Mo entered the sea of consciousness and found Pu Yao.
What happened? How come I look like this?
Pu Yao glanced at him, and sneered, Dont pretend in front of him. I had not expected the two of
you to team up and scheme against me.
Team up? Scheme? Zuo Mo was confused.
I do admire you. You really have guts. Reconstructing the body, even those great mo may not
dare to try. You really have the guts. I had underestimated you before.
Reconstruct the body? Zuo Mos confusion grew.
I had found it strange before why you would so easily agree to the drawing of earth energy so
easily, Pu Yao narrowed his bloody pupil, speaking to himself, I should have thought of this
earlier. How could you not know that my injuries needed earth energy? You were waiting for me
here a long time ago. You are as cunning as you always were!
Zuo Mo was able to hear that Pu Yaos last two sentences evidently were not directed at him.
He was not dumb. Listening to Pu Yaos words, he got a general understanding. Pu Yaos you
should be the gravestone. The more he listened, the colder his heart became. He suddenly
recalled the Do as he asks. He had a feeling that Pu Yaos speculation was not unbased.
Neither the yao or the stele were good people!

But when he thought deeper, he quickly realized it. If it was not for this yao and stele, he would
not have reached the level he was at now. He probably would not having even successfully
entered zhuji. It was like doing business. Each side had their own aims. Even the smallest of
benefits would not drop down from the sky. As to risk, what business had no risk?
I get the general gist of reconstructing the body, Zuo Mo directly asked, Is this my original
appearance?
His words not having the effect he intended, shock flashed across Pu Yaos mind. Didnt this guy
hate being used the most? However, he did not linger on this question. It would cause the
opposite effect if he said too much.
Of course not, Pu Yaos answer was very definite. After reconstruction of the body, all of your
appearance would change. The greatest cause of danger in this kind of mo skill is here. All the
bone, blood and flesh of your body would be broken up, processed and then reformed, making
up for your natural deficiencies, making a powerful body.
Zuo Mo pointed at his face and said, In other words, this face now has no jingshi of a
connection with my previous one?
Exactly. Pu Yao was slightly cheerful at the misfortune. Not just not having a connection at
all, your entire body has been broken, all the remaining traces have completely been destroyed.
In other words, the clues from before are gone now.
Zuo Mo stilled.
You had three clues in your hands. Changing features and erasing the mind would leave behind
two clues, one was on your face, the other is on your spirit. There is one more, the five element
glass bead in your body. Oh, you only have two clues now.
Zuo Mos expression was very strange, completely different than what Pu Yao had expected. He
couldnt help but ask, Are you not unhappy that you have one less clue?
Im alright, Zuo Mos tone was slightly complicated. He shrugged his shoulders. At least, Im
alive. This business is not unprofitable since I kept my little life.
Pu Yao was speechless.
What are the benefits of this body? Zuo Mo quickly came out of his emotions and asked with
anticipation. Having heard the scarce words of Pu Yao, it seemed the new body was very
powerful.
Pu Yaos expression froze. He could not suppress it any longer, furiously shouting, I didnt do
this, its none of my business! before turning and leaving.

Zuo Mo stilled, and then roared with laughed. He felt good about getting one over Pu Yao, the
lingering depression in his heart sweeping away.

Leaving the sea of consciousness in a good mood, he suddenly thought of Zong Ru. He
remembered that Zong Ru had fended off the last attack for him. If not for that shield, he would
have been heavily injured.
He hurriedly found Gongsun Shidi, and asked about Zong Rus injuries and then rushed over.
Zong Ru sat with his legs crossed, his face white as paper, his presence extremely low. Lei Peng
and Nian Lu were worriedly sitting beside him. Seeing Zuo Mo come, the two of them hurriedly
stood up.
How are the injuries? Zuo Mo abruptly asked.
Nian Lu grimaced, His channels were injured. It would take a period of time to recover.
To heal channels, this is third-grade Spring Dew Dan, specifically for channel injuries. Oh,
third-grade Primary Energy Dan, not bad for recovering energies. Third-grade Primary
Replenishing Dan, restoring the body
Nian Lu and Lei Peng gaped at the pile of lingdan.
After seeing Zong Ru, Zuo Mo remembered the Rainbow Mark butterfly that he had forgotten in
the mountain valley. He called for the Rainbow Mark butterfly through the beast service card,
but to his disappointment, the Rainbow Mark butterfly did not reply. If the energy of the
Rainbow Mark butterfly was not still present, he would have assumed that the Rainbow Mark
butterfly had died of poison.
Since the Rainbow Mark butterfly was still alive, he felt slightly reassured. Without the use of
Rainbow Pupil, the black poisonous mist inside the mountain valley was enough to take his little
life. He instantly discarded the thought of going to inspect the mountain valley.
He burrowed back into his room, and started to investigate his new body.

There was a question that puzzled Gongsun Cha, the fifth-grade ling beast was in the hands of
the two ningmai. It had to be said that fifth-grade ling beasts were able to enter the ranks of high
level ling beasts. They were not something that ningmai could command. How could it not be a
puzzled how one appeared in the hands of two ningmai?
He was extremely attentive, and called Nian Lu and Lei Peng over to ask for the details.
Its the Kong Brothers. Luckily, he had Xie Shan who was familiar with Venerable Chis base.
He explained. The Kong Brothers had managed to discover a secret technique from somewhere,
if the three worked together, they can summon a fifth-grade Bloody Horned Serpent. They were
the strongest helpers of Venerable Chi. Supposedly, the secret technique they found was not
complete. The fifth-grade ling beast they summon is not truly fifth-grade, and can only be
considered a quasi-fifth-grade beast. The reason that the Bloody Horned Serpent escaped control
might be related to us having killed Big Kong.
Even Xie Shan would never have thought that his speculations perfectly matched what had
actually happened.
Gongsun Cha felt that it was plausible. To say of nothing else, the power of a fifth-grade ling
beast definitely was higher than three ningmai xiuzhe. If this secret technique did not have any
flaw, no one would have survived.
Suddenly, someone hurriedly ran in. Head, head!
The subordinates usually called Gongsun Cha Head, and Zuo Mo Boss.
What is it? Gongsun Cha asked. He wondered inside, did something else happen?
A female xiu was floating in the river, the brothers pulled her out.
Female xiu? Gongsun Cha stilled. It took a long time for him to react. After leaving Wu Kong
Mountain, he had not encountered female xiu again.
In cultivation, there was no difference between female and male. Many sects even took only
female disciples. The only type of cultivation that had a difference was probably the dhyana xiu
which cultivated their bodies. Females loved beauty, liked their skin snowy white, and had no
interest in bronzed skin and hard bones. Supposedly, Little Mountain Jie had female-only
factions.
Lets go see, Gongsun Cha did not hesitate in saying .

When Gongsun Cha hurried to the camp, he quickly saw this female xiu. More accurately, it was
a wounded female xiu.
I say, she is just a bit too ugly. Gongsun Cha did not realize how malicious his words were as
he said in shock.
Really. Xie Shan agreed empathetically, nodding his head.
The unconscious female xiu was seriously injured, the hair flowing free, her entire body giving
off a nasty smell. Her face was full of crusted scabies. She was dressed in a torn and white robe,
not much different from a beggar. Her feet were bare, her legs patched in bruises.
Zuo Mo had hurried over when he heard the news. His expression was serious due to Pu Yaos
words.
Shes been infected with yao poison.
Yao poison. Zuo Mos expression became slightly ugly. You mean that she was wounded by
the yao?
Exactly. Pu Yao, who had felt that his status had become threatened lately did not hold
anything back anymore, not forgetting to show off at anytime. This is a very common yao
poison, made from Green Thorn Vine. They used this thousands of years ago. I hadnt thought
they would still use it. At the end, he did not forget to review like he usually did. Did they live
one thousand years more for nothing?
Zuo Mo did not pay attention to Pu Yao. He suddenly raised his head. Where did she float
from?
Xie Shan stilled and then ran to ask the xiuzhe who had discovered the female first. After a while,
he pointed at a direction on the river. Floated from there.
Gongsun Cha also reacted at this time. The two of them exchanged a look. Sky Moon Jie!
That direction, it was the direction of Sky Moon Jie!
This female xiu had escaped from Sky Moon Jie. The two of them were extremely shocked.
Their present position was not far from the jie river. However, this female xiu was the first
person that they had found who had escaped from Sky Moon Jie. Without a doubt, the yao army
had locked down the jie river. It was not hard to accomplish. They only needed to send a troop to
occupy Desolate Wood Reef, and then they could secure the jie river.
This female xiu was very strong!

Zuo Mo and Gongsun Cha exchanged another look with the same idea, getting the other on their
side. To say of nothing else, this female xius power was not of a normal ningmai to be able to
break through the blockade. Even more, all of them came from Sky Moon Jie, this made the two
people feel slightly closer to her.
Having made a decision, Zuo Mo asked Pu Yao, How do you neutralize the poison?
Translator Ramblings: If you are reading this, it means that I havent found internet access in the
last 24 hours. This is a scheduled post so sorry for not responding to your comments for the last
chapter. Ill most likely be actually with internet before the next chapter.
To disappoint some of you, Zuo Mo did not become a handsome person. Isnt Pu Yao and
Gongsun Cha eyecandy enough? In other news, Zuo Mo has been the piece of meat that Pu
Yao and the gravestone have been fighting over. Pu Yao just lost a bit due to his desire for earth
energy to recover which the gravestone took advantage of. One Stars in Daytime later, and Zuo
Mo now has a new body. Zuo Mo obviously cannot do anything to control these two beings so
being accepting is actually the best response. The two of them are definitely not done yet.
Xie Shan shows his usefulness. As someone mentioned, if Zuo Mo can defeat a fifth-grade ling
beast, and that is equal to a jindan, he should be able to beat a jindan, he cant because that
wasnt a true fifth-grade. But now he shows some hope of being able to do so with help from
others.
We get a female character again, other than Silly Bird. Sex ratios are really skewed sometimes in
fantasy novels. A common trend is that the males are opponents of the main character while the
females are companions. Up to this point, Fang Xiangs character gender ratio is not too bad. It is
still not fifty-fifty despite what he said in this chapter about differences between the sexes, but
there are some developed female characters. What is a mystery to me is where the female xiu in
Little Mountain Jie all gone to. All the people weve encountered in Little Mountain Jie so far
are male, except the one in this chapter. Im not sure if they all died off, or they evacuated
quickly and had the money to pay to cross the jie river.

Chapter Two Hundred and Thirty Eight Sonic Lightning Walnut
How is it? Gongsun Cha looked into the room, and then sat next to Zuo Mo.

Zuo Mo shook his head. I dont know. She has been seriously wounded before, not just this
once. It is a miracle that she is alive right now. He had some admiration for her. When he had
inspected the female, he had been stunned by the dense layers of hidden wounds inside her body.
Was this woman like Wei Sheng Shixiong, and also a battle maniac?
It would be better if she looked prettier. Gongsun Cha smacked his lips.
Zuo Mo was slightly surprised. Do you want to find a female xiu?
No, thats not it, Gongsun Cha explained, his face serious. To be easy on the eyes.
Tell me, whats so good about women? Why does everyone like them? Zuo Mo recalled the
paper crane females illusory formation that made blood rise.
Shixiong, you dont know this? Gongsun Cha looked in disbelief at Zuo Mo. Gongsun Cha
covered his forehead and sighed. He then adjusted his attitude to that of an experienced person,
and began to lecture Zuo Mo in a heavy voice, Shixiong, I may not be as good as you in
cultivation. But if we are talking about the understanding of women, this little brother has a little
bit of skill.
Zuo Mos mind became alert. He hurriedly said, Tell me.
Women, the most important part is beauty, beauty like jade, voice like the wind, with a
tantalizing fragrance that one cannot pull themselves away. Gongsun Chas face was
intoxicated, but he quickly said in a heavy voice, But, Shixiong, you have to remember, you
should just look at women. My master said that you can only look at women, but cannot touch
them. We shall just look at them.
Oh, so its like that, Zuo Mo nodded, still confused.
It really is wonderful to meet someone from Sky Moon Jie. Gongsun Cha sighed, There is
only the three of us. Its better to have one more person.
Zuo Mo was silent as he thought of previous matters. After a while, he asked, Wheres Cheng
Shidi?
Where else could he be? Hes always at the beast pool. Soon, he will accomplish his goal and
cultivate into a ling beast. Hee hee, Gongsun Cha mocked.
Its good as long as he likes it. It might have been the string of occurrences recently, but Zuo
Mo had a much more open perspective on many matters.

En. Gongsun Cha nodded. It would not be outrageous to say that their situation was a
precarious one. They might have won a few victories, but these hundred something people could
not rank up there in the entire Little Mountain Jie.
What they were doing right now, was it not what they liked? The deepest impression he had after
learning how to command was that he had wasted his days before.
He suddenly thought of an urgent matter. Shixiong, where do you think this yao army came
from?
Came from? Zuo Mo was stilled, struck silent by Gongsun Chas question. He thought and
said, Probably Sky Water Jie, Little Mountain Jie only has two jie rivers, they could only have
come from Sky Water Jie.
Gongsun Chas handsome face was full of worry. But if they came from Sky Water Jie, would
the yao army have let go of Clear Sky Sect? When we were at Desolate Wood Reef, they didnt
even say a thing before attacking.
That was right. If the yao army really came into Little Mountain Jie from Sky Water Jie, any
power that would have been guarding the jie river would have been destroyed. Zuo Mo didnt
believe that the yao army would make an exception for Clear Sky Sect.
Maybe Clear Sky Sect had captured the jie river entrance after the yao army passed? Zuo Mo
thought of a possibility.
I had asked Xie Shan and the others, but the Clear Sky Sect has always guarded that place,
Gongsun Cha said.
Zuo Mo felt a wave of cold seep up from the bottom of his feet. Is there another entrance to
Little Mountain Jie?
I dont know. Gongsun Cha shook his head.

This question was extremely important. Zuo Mo immediately went to find Pu Yao.
Pu Yao said in a deep voice, The yao army should have entered from a chaos rift.
Chaos rift? What is that?

Each jie would have several entrances. The most frequently seen are the jie rivers. But other
than those passageways, there usually would be some very small rifts, these are chaos rifts.
However, most jie masters, after they have taken control of the jie, would find these chaos rifts
and seal them to prevent others from taking advantage of them. Pu Yao was very familiar with
this kind of knowledge.
Are there many chaos rifts? Zuo Mo s expression was slightly ugly. If it really was a chaos
rift, then that meant the yao army could appear at any time.
I dont know, Pu Yao said, each jie is different. However, there is one point. The reason that
chaos rifts have the appellation of chaos is that the laws inside the rifts are chaotic and nonexistent. The higher the level of cultivator, the greater the effect it has on them. Little Mountain
jie is one of the smallest kinds of jie. If it really has a chaos rift, it probably could only allow
ningmai xiuzhe to pass through. Yaomo will be similarity constrained.
Hearing this Zuo Mo was completely certain the yao army had entered Little Mountain Jie from
a chaos rift. He had found it strange before that the yao armys average cultivation had not been
high despite the organization it showed. The individual strength had been comparable to
ningmai. So it was not that they did not want to send experts, but they could not send them.
How do you find a chaos rift? Can we block it off? Zuo Mo asked with fear in his voice. A
danger that was known but could not be seen was the easiest ones to cause terror.
The surroundings of a chaos rift will usually have some attributes. Due to chaos, chaos which is
not divided into yin and yang, not into the five elements. There would not be any earth energy,
nor ling power. Xiu, yao, and mo will all be suppressed under chaos. Oh, it would also be empty
and barren. No beast can survive in the area around a chaos rift, there will be no plants or
animals, nothing living, Pu Yao streamed on. At the end, he added, There are also some secret
methods that can detect them, but I dont know them.

Zuo Mo left the sea of consciousness. He narrated what Pu Yao had said.
Gongsun Cha was very calm. This answer was not far from his own speculations. He only asked
a question, Is the area around the chaos rift suitable for ambush?
Theoretically, it is very suitable. Pu Yao responded of his own initiative. However, he could
only speak to Zuo Mo, But tell him to end the thought. Even the most exhausted lion is not one
sheep can defeat. What he commands are the sheep of the sheep.

Zuo Mo was speechless. However, he still tactfully passed on Pu Yaos words.


Gongsun Chas expression was slightly ugly, but he also knew this was the truth. He was very
clear about what the people under his command were like. Even though they had formed the
beginnings of an army under his training, but it was far from being able to compete with a fully
mature army like the yao army.
Zuo Mo also had no solutions for this problem.
However, this also increased the determination of the two people to quickly defeat Clear Sky
Sects blockade. That was the only ray of hope for survival.
Is there any news of yin fiend grounds? Zuo Mo asked. The power of the yin fire bead was
greater than he had imagined. Such a big monster as the Bloody Horn Serpent had been turned to
dust upon impact. It really was out of Zuo Mos expectations, and increased his desire to find yin
fiend lands.
The strength of fifth-grade ling beasts were on the same level as jindan. Even though the bloody
horn serpent was only semi-fifth-level, but a power that could kill it would have some effect on a
jindan.
Gongsun Cha was also clear about the power of the yin fire bead, and had been extremely
attentive to this matter. He said, Nothing yet, but I will focus on it. Right, after getting rid of
Venerable Chis bunch, we got something good.
What something good? Zuo Mos mind became alert as he asked.
A maturing fourth-grade Sonic Lightning Walnut tree. The fruit is almost mature. Venerable Chi
had been guarding it all this time, but it landed in our hands, Gongsun Cha smiled shyly.
Sonic Lightning Walnut! Fourth-grade! Zuo Mos eyes widened as he gasped.
Seeing Shixiong drooling, Gongsun Cha giggled, Yes.
Shixiongs expression was so vivid now! Gongsun Cha wanted to laugh.
Zuo Mo rushed into Venerable Chis mountain cave. The place was heavily guarded at the
moment. Gongsun Cha was also clear about the value of a fourth-grade Sonic Lightning Walnut.
It was a treasure beyond any price.
A stalk of a non-descript walnut tree twice the height of a person. The crown was filled with
green fruits, the skin of which was covered in silver dots.

There was no thick ling energy, no blinding light. This tree looked extremely normal. It was hard
for people to relate this tree to a fourth-grade Sonic Lightning Walnut tree.
This Venerable Chi has some good eyesight! Normal people wont have recognized it. Zuo Mo
greedily stared at the sparkling green fruits on the tree.
Now, it is all ours. Gongsun Cha did not have a good understanding of the value of the Sonic
Lightning Walnut. He only knew that this tree was somewhat rare and very expensive.
Zuo Shixiong always was bursting with interest towards anything that was rare and could be sold
for a good price. He himself was also very happy. He knew better than anyone else the expenses
that was spent on the training he had ordered. He felt it was a good beginning that he could
create revenue for Shixiong.
Having had a sweet taste, Gongsun Cha wondered if it was time to speed up the steps to create
revenue?
Pia, a mature fruit fell off the branch.
Zuo Mo hurriedly put out a hand, the fruit flying into his grasp. He gently brushed with his hand
and the skin and flesh was taken off, revealing the silvery sparkling walnut on the inside.
This was the famed Sonic Lightning Walnut!
Zuo Mos eyes was intoxicated as he pulled the Sonic Lightning Walnut in front of him.
This Sonic Lightning Walnut was slightly smaller than a normal walnut, appearing to have been
made of pure silver. It was extremely heavy, the abundant creasing on the surface released the
occasional spark of lightning. Zuo Mos hand was covered in a thin layer of ling power.
Otherwise, he would be injured by the lightning of the Sonic Lightning Walnut.
So this is the Sonic Lightning Walnut? Its pretty beautiful. Gongsun Cha crowded over. This
can probably sell for a good price!
Sell? In a reversal of his usual attitude, Zuo Mo furiously shook his head. We arent going to
sell even one! This is something that you cant even buy if you had the jingshi.
His consciousness scanned the sparkling silvery Sonic Lightning Walnut in his hand as he sighed
inside. The Sonic Lightning Walnut naturally contained abundant amounts of hard lightning. It
was a natural talisman that could be used immediately. At present, Zuo Mo was lacking high
attack power moves. These Sonic Lightning Walnuts had come at the perfect time!
With his thrifty and prudent personality, he naturally was not so stupid as to use the Sonic
Lightning Walnuts directly. He also quickly discovered that, while the Sonic Lightning Walnut

contained abundant hard lightning, but the kernel inside the hard husk could contain even more
hard lightning.
If hard lightning was used to continuously temper it, the power of the Sonic Lightning Walnut
would continuously increase.
For other people, it would not be easy to find hard lightning, but it was as simple for Zuo Mo as
raising his hand.
[Yang Fiend Hard lightning], a fourth-grade hard lightning, was perfect for tempering the Sonic
Lightning Walnuts.
Zuo Mo looked at the branches drooping with green fruits, and the strong feeling of happiness
made him dizzy.
Mine! All mine!
The cave echoed with the balderdash of a miser.
Translator Ramblings: Gongsun Cha and Zuo Mo are the blind leading the blind in this particular
matter. A reason why no powerful great yao have come is given as well as why going to Sky
Water Jie is actually a safe choice. Gongsun Cha is stuck very firmly in the mindset of a
strategist. Anything that can be used should be used for his advantage.
Im a little surprised that there were not more of you that commented on Gongsun Chas order to
massacre Venerable Chis group. Is it because he seemed like a person who could do such a
thing, the situation made it acceptable, or just that everyone is used to killing in fantasy novels?
Im super curious because I was really surprised when I read that part because slaughter on a
mass scale hasnt been brought into focus in the novel before, and killing was always limited to
just a few people with Zuo Mo.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Thirty Nine Yao Visiting Wu Kong
This chapter has been brought to you by me, warlord212, and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter Two Hundred and Thirty Nine Yao Visiting Wu Kong
Compared to the past Wu Kong Mountain, if one went there now, weeds grew all over the
mountain, the ling fields were barren. Occasionally, little wild animals poked their heads out
from the weeds.

It is in this area.
Listening to the report from her subordinate, Mu Xi stepped on the overgrown path as she
walked up the mountain.
Which sect used to possess this site? She asked.
It is a sword practicing sect called Wu Kong Sword Sect. The middle aged man had clearly
done large amounts of work, introducing in great detail. Wu Kong Sword Sect is one of the
most accomplished sects of Sky Moon Jie. They became extremely famous in the last two years.
At the beginning, they had four jindan of unordinary power.
Oh, such a little place, it is really abnormal to have four jindan, Mu Xi said in surprise.
Yan Feng sneered unconcernedly.
Mu Xi ignored him, and said to the middle aged man, Continue.
These two years, they have expanded extremely quickly. Presently, they have almost ten jindan
in the sect.
Surprise flashed through Mu Xis eyes. Almost ten jindan?
This time, surprise was also on Yan Fengs face. They were only the forward guard. Almost ten
jindan would be enough to be of threat to them. He was arrogant, but having successfully came
out of a yao art house, he naturally was not stupid.
Other than this, their second generation disciples are extremely outstanding, dominating Sky
Moon Jie. The Eldest disciple Wei Sheng entered ningmai at twenty, and his talent at the sword
is even more astounding. Having already reached the step of sword essence manifestation.
Second disciple Zuo Mo is extremely skilled in formations. Third disciple Luo Li has also
reached ningmai, and created his own sword scripture [Self Separation].
A very strong sect! Mu Xis expression changed.
In the past years, the yao had increased their understanding of the xiuzhe. It would not be
surprising for this information contained in the report to be referring to an intermediate sized
sect. But it really was astounding for it to be reported from a little sect in such a little and
backwater jie.
Yan Feng also had a shocked expression. He had always been proud of his genius. He had been
deal a great blow by the news that someone had reached ningmai when they were twenty years
old, and had reached the level of sword essence manifestation!

They walked to a lonely little wooden house. This little wooden house was extremely eyecatching. As they had walked up, weeds had covered everything. But the empty ground around
this little wooden house was bare and had no weeds.
Such an eye-catching and strange place naturally could not escape their eyes. Mu Xi stared at the
little wooden house for a while, standing motionlessly at her spot. The other people saw that Mu
Xi did not move, and did not dare to more either. Seeing the situation, Yan Feng snorted coldly,
and did not hesitate to walk towards the wooden house.
The middle aged man couldnt help but look at Mu Xi with a questioning expression.
Mu Xi waved her hand with a faint smile.
When Yan Fengs right foot stepped onto the empty ground, his head rang, all the hairs on his
body standing up on end!
The scene in front of him suddenly changed. That normal looking wooden house suddenly broke,
everything in the surrounding space seemed to collapse, an invisible force seemed to pull him
downwards, countless sharp and intimidating sword essences pushing at him from all directions!
He paled, then his eyes turned bright red, flames erupting all over his body!
He gathered all the energy in his body, and pulled his body out to retreat!
As he left the empty ground, the frightening scene disappeared. The invisible force, the sword
essences, they were like illusions. Yan Feng swallowed in terror, not daring to put away the
flames on his body as he looked with fear at the lonely little wooden house.
This is the site of cultivation for a very powerful sword xiu. Mu Xi slowly walked beside him,
and opened, Every bit of the ground here has been permeated with sword essence for a long
time. It is vicious and sharp, nothing can grow here. Each step that you take forward, the sword
essence grows stronger. At the end, there is only two endings. One is that you are torn to pieces
by the sword essences, the other is all the sword essences have been destroyed by you.
Yan Fengs complexion was pale. Since they had entered Little Mountain Jie from the chaos rift,
it had been smooth sailing, and he had not encountered any proper resistance, causing him to
have a low opinion of xiuzhe, assuming that the xiuzhe were just so. Only now did he suddenly
realize, to his shock, that the strong masters of the xiuzhe were so terrifying!
Yan Fengs unusual silence greatly satisfied Mu Xi. She did not do this just because of Yan Feng.
She had discovered a mood of underestimating the enemy invading the ranks earlier. This was
fatal to a vanguard that had entered the deep of the enemy.
Her subordinates looked with shock at the barren ground and the wooden house.

She turned, and saw the pride in her subordinates eyes had faded greatly before she asked the
middle aged man expressionlessly, Are there any potential targets?
The middle aged man said respectfully, From the time of the Stars in Daytime, the time that
Daren had came to Wu Kong Sword Sect should have been before Wu Kong Sword Sects
expansion. Before their expansion, there were not many people in Wu Kong Sword Sect. Since
Daren had caused the Stars in Daytime, this daren probably was seriously wounded. With that, it
is unlikely that Daren had taken over a jindans body. What is more likely are the second
generation disciples.
Mu Xi did not interrupt. After he finished, she thought and then asked, Who do you feel is most
suspicious?
Wei Sheng! The middle aged man did not hesitate.
Why?
Wei Sheng is the most talented, and can give Daren the greatest aid!
Mu Xi shook her head. I do not think so. If you are wounded and have to hide in someones
body, what would you consider?
Hearing this, the middle aged man became silent for a moment before saying, In this
subordinates view, the first is safety, the second is to speedily recover.
You are not wrong, Mu Xi said then continued, Wei Shengs talent is the greatest, and the
primary target of the sects attention. It is easy to slip up if one is not careful. Therefore, residing
in his body is not a wise choice. If it was me, I would chose Zuo Mo or Luo Li. They are not as
attention-catching as Wei Sheng yet they also received good support. It is also certain that the
attention they receive is less than Wei Sheng. No matter if the goal is either to control or to
tempt, it is much easier.
The middle aged man was full of admiration. Daren is wise!
Where is Wu Kong Sword Sect now?
Supposedly, they have already moved to Bright Wave Jie, the middle aged man answered. He
had an expression of difficulty while he spoke, With our strength, it is unlikely that we can take
down Bright Wave Jie.
Mu Xi was not angry, smiling and saying, Bright Wave Jie is a intermediate jie. Of course, we
cannot conquer it. Our mission has almost been completed. Take the information you have
gathered, and our speculations to make a report. Just send it back. There will be people who will
naturally take care of the rest.

Yes! The middle aged person said respectfully.


Yan Fengs expression had recovered. When he heard Mu Xis words, he was still somewhat
discontent. Then what are we doing here?
Us? Mu Xi smiled, After working for so long, its time for a vacation.
Yan Feng was speechless.

Zuo Mos body was filled with strength. This new body gave him too many unfamiliar surprises
and feelings. It progressed extremely rapidly in body cultivation. Without too much effort, he had
entered the stage of three mountains. As he moved, he felt his entire body was filled by a
bountiful power. It was an extremely pleasurable feeling.
What surprised him the most was the mo matrix Pu Yao had carved into his body had completely
disappeared when his body had been reconstructed this time. However, for some unknown
reason, there were some new formation-like patterns on his body. These patterns were not as
complex or as strange as the mo matrix appeared, but was filled with a kind of man-made
formation beauty.
However, Zuo Mo was still uncertain as to whether these patterns were formations. They
required time to study.
Other than his body cultivation that reached three mountains, the other breakthrough was his
abhinna which had not formed for a long time.
His abhinna was related to his eyes. This had not changed when he had changed into a new body.
[Ling Eye]!
The only ability of [Ling Eye] was to detect the flow of ling energy.
He was not able to use [Ling Eye] for a very long time at the moment, because his eyes would
become extremely dry and sore. But even so, [Ling Eye] was a great surprise to him. Maybe
other people would not care about [Ling Eye], but for him, [Ling Eye] was perfect.
It was a great boon to him to be able to see the flow of ling energy when he studied formations!
There were many explanations for the abhinna. Dhyana xiu thought that it was wisdom from
Samadhi, the abhinna was wisdom. Pu Yao scorned this explanation. He thought it was the
awakening of the base source of power of the flesh.

But there was a point that both sides were in a strange consensus on an abhinna would grow.
However, no matter if it was Zong Ru or Pu Yao, they did not know how to cultivate an abhinna.
Zuo Mo was not in a rush. He still had the simplest and stupidest method, learning through
familiarity. When he had the time, he would use the [Ling Eye], and only stop when it was too
sore to bear.
The reconstruction of his body had given him improvement in all areas. Other than body
cultivation and the abhinna, the improvement in all other areas were extraordinary.
The new ling channels were even stronger, and grown wider by half of what they were before.
The bones were like jade, strong as steel. The muscles were like metal, hardness concealed
within the flexibility.
Every time he inspected his new body, Zuo Mo could not help but sigh. Strangely, he felt awe
towards the gravestone. Such an astonishing method, it could be called uncanny craftsmanship,
like stealing the sky and changing the sun!
He could not think of what kind of person could have such ability. This ability completely
destroyed all he knew.
However, he put this awe deep into his heart. He cultivated without rest or food. Right now, he
had such good conditions. If he wasted it, it would be so unprofitable! The talent that this new
body had was something he could not imagine before.
Just as Zuo Mo was furiously cultivating, Gongsun Cha took the group of xiuzhe and started a
similarly furious expansion.

In three months, Gongsun Cha took the group of xiuzhe and went through four hard battles!
In the hardest battle, even Ma Fan and Xie Shan were wounded. Even Gongsun Cha was almost
killed.
But this battle had completely awoken the madness under Gongsun Chas shy and delicate
appearance. Just as everyones wounds had healed, he took fifteen battle units, chased for eight
hundred li, conquered a faction, and captured eighty xiuzhe.
After four fierce battles, the number of xiuzhe on Gongsun Chas hands quickly grew to an
unprecedented four hundred and fifty people. With one step, they became the biggest power
within three thousand li.

Lil Misss infamy quickly spread. The strong offensive power displayed by this faction of
mysterious origins made people look. After a string of dazzling fights, everyone understood this
troop was not a friendly one.
In an area three thousand li in diameter, all the scattered xiuzhe had been swept away by
Gongsun Cha, and he did not leave behind one. In other words, in this enormous area, other than
Gongsun Cha and the others, there was no one in any other place.
However, after a succession of victories, Gongsun Chas mood was extremely terrible because he
heard a piece of news.
Translator Ramblings: A little update on Wu Kong Sword Sect who has done pretty well for
themselves.Zuo Mo had a easier time getting to the hut because Xin Yan was actually present.
Its not that Yan Feng is weaker than Zuo Mo.
To answer a comment, Zuo Mos mo matrix has changed and what has happened will be
developed. His abhinna is finally revealed. A very simple but useful ability.
Three thousand li, thats the size of a country. But this really isnt much in terms of the total area
of Little Mountain Jie, and Little Mountain Jie is only a small one while Bright Wave is an
intermediate jie.
I want to say that Mu Xi and the other yao are overthinking it, but the conclusions they come to
are correct even when the events that they think led to what had happened are incorrect. Mu Xi
is a very smart person. Yes, the person you are searching for does not want to be found, and
actively hides away. But they did overestimate just how well Pu Yao was and thought he would
have a choice of host.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Forty What Was Going On?
This chapter has been brought to you by me, warlord212, and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter Two Hundred and Forty What Was Going On?
Gongsun Cha found Zuo Mo and faithfully told him the news he had received.
The further he listened, the uglier Zuo Mos expression became.
This Clear Sky Sect is truly too evil! They want to use all of Little Mountain Jie to feed only
them! Zuo Mo was extremely furious, but he quickly calmed down. We need to move faster!

The longer it takes, the harder the days will get. When this Outer Hall of theirs truly stabilizes,
they would have many fighters. If we want to charge out, it would be much harder.
En! Gongsun Cha nodded his head heavily, a flash of anger in his eyes. Clear Sky Sects
actions was equal to farming the xiuzhe of Little Mountain Jie as though they were ling beasts.
When it was time, they would be no different than those xiu slaves.
I have a solution, Zuo Mo said after some thought.
What solution? Gongsun Cha asked hurriedly.
They sell ling grains, well sell Black Processing Meditation mats!
Gongsun Cha was slightly puzzled and spoke, Wouldnt it be too much of a waste if we sell the
Black Processing Meditation mats to them? At that time, the price of jingshi in Little Mountain
Jie would inflate dramatically.
Sell! Zuo Mo said hatefully, We wont just sell, well sell in large quantities! As long as the
Black Processing Meditation mats are sold, the noose on everyones necks would not be so tight.
If Clear Sky Sect cannot finish establishing the status quo, all of their past effort would be for
nothing. When Clear Sky Sect discovers that it is us who ruined their business, they would
definitely come to our doors. Hee hee, wait at leisure while the enemy labors, this way, we can
set a trap for them! A strong dragon does not suppress the local snakehead. On our territory, it
isnt up to them how things are done.
Gongsun Chas eyes instantly lit up.
The two of them discussed for a long time inside the room, dark snickers occasionally passing
out of the room.

Lei Peng, Xie Shan, and the others found to their surprise that Heads mood today was very
good, the shadow on his face seemed to have been swept away. Usually, when Lil Miss mood
was good, everyone had easier days.
However, before they had time to be happy, they heard Lil Miss announce that, from today
onward, training was multiplied!
Wails rang out into the landscape!

Fortunately, the xiuzhe who made it through the cruel battles were not resistant to harsh
cultivation.
Truthfully, what everyone wanted the most was access to that sword formation. Every xiuzhe that
came out of the formation would go into seclusion. Up until now, several had comprehended
sword essence after entering the sword formation. Something this good that went against the
common knowledge was naturally very tempting to many. However, there were too many monks
yet not enough porridge. The sword formation only allowed for one person to cultivate at a time.
Gongsun Cha had a headache over the matter and could only use it as a part of the rewards for
service.
Seeing the busy camp, Gongsun Cha sighed. If there was more time, he would definitely have
made a true elite force.
It was a pity what they lacked the most was time.
When they charged out of Little Mountain Jie, he would find Shixiong, and make a true troop.
Having tasted what it was like to be a battle general, it would be really bland if he had to do
something else.
However, what was going to happen next really filled him with anticipation!

After giving many matters to Gongsun Shidi, the amount of matters Zuo Mo had to attend to
made his scalp prickle. The crux of this plan was Black Processing Meditation mats, and large
amounts of them.
It was not difficult to make Black Processing Meditation mats, but the volume was too large. In
the recent while, Zuo Mo had used up all the spare time he had outside out of cultivation to make
Black Processing Meditation mats. The amount needed now was much higher, and he did not
have an assistant. He needed to complete all of the work by himself.
This clearly was not realistic!
He decided to pick some xiuzhe who had the basics of forging from the camp to help him. What
surprised him was that there were more than fifty people of the four hundred and fifty who knew
the fundamentals of forging. Zuo Mo only understood after he asked. These xiuzhe mostly had no

sect, and after they entered ningmai, they naturally had good days. However, before they entered
ningmai, they were no different than any other low level xiuzhe.
Basically, everyone had a skill. Ling farming, animal husbandry, forging, etc. Zuo Mo and
Gongsun Cha gaped at the variety.
However, even though most of them had learned the basics and had spent longer on forging than
Zuo Mo had, but due to the lack of a systematic education, they had only done some very basic
jobs. After ningmai, they had not done much.
There were two who were exceptions. One of them was called Ji Wei, the other Sun Bao. The
two had made a living from forging before the change in Little Mountain Jie. Their skill in
forging was much higher than Zuo Mo. Zuo Mo treasured the two of them when he found them.
He even managed to take out the Golden Crow Fire and allowed the two of them to absorb it.
It was like the two of them had been hit with jingshi from the sky, they were so happy they
almost fainted. Golden Crow Fire! This was Golden Crow Fire! The two had schemed and made
countless efforts, but had never found a fire seed that could satisfy them.
So when Zuo Mo threw each of them a mini box and told them that a thread of Golden Crow Fire
was sealed inside, their hands shook so much they almost dropped the boxes.
Other than happiness, the two deeply felt the importance Boss placed on them.
It was not a joke!
This was Golden Crow Fire!
Fourth-grade fire seed!
The fire seed that any person in forging or dan-making dreamed about!
Yet before the two of them were able to feel smug, they saw Zuo Mo pick out ten more people
with the highest skill in forging, and give each of them a mini box!
Ji Wei and Sun Bao were dumbstruck, their expressions as though they had seen a ghost!
It was not just them. When the ten people had been picked out, they had been looking with
admiration at the two. Now, they were holding the mini box, a stunned expression on their faces,
their minds completely blank.
The remaining xiuzhe were also completely stunned. The temperature of the room rose
dramatically.

Work hard! Zuo Mo waved his hand like a show off. Taking in everyones gazes, it was like he
had eaten ginseng fruit, his entire body unspeakably comfortable.
There was no way around it, ge just has a lot of Golden Crow Fire!
This group of xiuzhe that had been dissatisfied at having been transferred over to a new troop
started to furiously work as though they had been shot with chicken blood. Their enthusiasm
with work made Zuo Mo jump in fright. They wouldnt die from working this hard, right
Zuo Mo taught the formations of the Black Processing Meditation mat to Ji Wei and Sun Bao.
When Zuo Mo finished teaching them, the two were motionless as though they were two pieces
of rock.
From then on, the two had truly been convinced.

Zuo Mo concentrated solely on his work. When he raised his head in rest, he noticed that a
person was standing in the doorway. Hm, he gave a surprised expression, and stopped what he
was doing.
You woke up? asked Zuo Mo. The other person was just standing there. He didnt know how
long it had gone on.
This female xiu stood there woodenly as though she had not heard him speak.
Had she become stupid due to her injuries? Zuo Mo muttered inside.
What are you called? he probed.
The female xiu did not respond.
Did your injuries really turn you stupid? Zuo Mo rubbed his chin as he thought. He decided to
try one more time. Are you hungry?
The female xiu still did not react.
Seeing the female xius face that was full of scabies, Zuo Mo was suddenly filled with empathy.
He remembered his past zombie face.

When she had been unconscious, Zuo Mo had checked. Her face did not have any disguise. The
scabies on her face were caused by a certain kind of poison inside her body. Adding on the new
and old inner wounds that could not be counted, Zuo Mo felt it was a miracle she was still alive.
After the last try had failed, Zuo Mo had a bit of headache and could only give up. Do whatever
you want.
He didnt feel the other understood, but right now, he had too many things to do. Even though the
creation of the Black Processing Meditation mat had been basically given to other people, but he
still had other work.
Any complete plan was constructed of many conditions.
He decided to do his own work. When he turned to leave, he heard footsteps behind him. This
female xiu followed behind him without a word.
Zuo Mo instantly felt his temple start to hurt.
Hey, theres no jingshi you can earn by following me!
I dont have the time to play with you, go play by yourself.
There really is no jingshi to be earned!
Im warning you, if you dont stay far away, I wont be polite to you!
Zuo Mo pretended to cast a spell. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw the female xius
movement, and his pupils sudden expanded. The other had also raised a hand. A light flashed at
her fingertip, the air in the surroundings suddenly became sticky!
Motherf*****!
Zuo Mos soul almost ran out of his body. He hurriedly released the ling power in his hands,
hurriedly saying, Lets just talk lets just talk
The female xiu still did not say a word, but followed Zuo Mo, the light at her fingertip
dissipating. As she lowered her arm, the air in the surroundings returned to normal!
Such a powerful little girl! Pu Yaos shocked sigh sounded in Zuo Mos mind, but when Zuo
Mo heard it, it clearly had a hint of laughing at his misfortunes.
Zuo Mo had no solution. He basically could not communicate with this female xiu. As to
attacking? When he thought of that terrifying light, Zuo Mos heart shook. The last bit of hope
was destroyed.

If you want to follow, then follow! At the end of his rope, Zuo Mo muttered.
Hahahaha! Pu Yaos roaring laughter, and the silence from the female xiu made Zuo Mo
suddenly feel that life was dark.
The xiuzhe in the surrounding all looked with fear at the female xiu behind Zuo Mo. The strength
that the female xiu had just displayed made everyone jump. Zuo Mo perceptively noticed that in
these peoples eyes, other than terror and fear, there was a hint of disgust.
Zuo Mo suddenly felt uncomfortable inside.
But he also knew this was a normal response. When he had first seen the female xiu, he had also
been frightened by the scabies on her face.
He randomly picked out a black ore from the pile of material and summoned the Golden Crow
Fire before throwing the ore inside. The burning Golden Crow Fire instantly melted the ore into a
puddle of red metal liquid. Zuo Mos mind moved, and it appeared as there was an invisible
force that pulled the metal liquid. The metal liquid slowly changed shape.
The female xiu stared at the Golden Crow Fire and metal liquid.
After a while, a mask appeared on Zuo Mos hands.
The black mask was very plan. There were no patterns or decorations. What was most strange
was the ratio was slightly off, the right and left sides of the mask were not symmetrical. Zuo Mo
instantly felt slightly embarrassed. Oh, first time making a mask, my hand was raw, raw! Oh,
lets redo it
He was just going to remake one when a great force pass into his hands from the mask and then
the mask flew into the hands of the female xiu.
The female xiu put on the mask.
Oh, lets remake that one, Zuo Mo rubbed his hands and said embarrassedly.
The right and left sides really were not symmetrical Heavens! He had made such an
elementary mistake! Looking at the strange looks from the subordinates in the surroundings, he
wanted to find a hole in the ground and hide in it.
This was a great embarrassment!
The female xiu did not say a word, and seemed to not have any intentions of taking off the mask.

Seeing the situation, Zuo Mo perceptively gave up on his plan of making another one. He tried to
do his own work and found the female xiu did not disturb him. She only stood there like a person
made out of wood.
Zuo Mo gradually became used to her.
However, there was a question that was swirling in his mind.
This, what was going on?
Translator Ramblings: Yes, they are selling black processing meditation mats like a lot of you
predicted. Theres an interesting economy going on right now where the mainstream currency is
food and not jingshi.
Zuo Mo has learned a great skill in this chapter, delegation. He didnt really need it before and he
did delegate to Gongsun Cha but this is delegating an area that he is skilled in away so he can
create a factory for black processing meditation mat.
No symmetry I keep imagining one of those masks with one half smiling and the other half
frowning.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Forty One City Construction
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Two Hundred and Forty One City Construction
Nan Sheng Village. The damaged walls had been reconstructed and it only took a span of a few
months for this place to recover its prosperity.
Large numbers of xiuzhe had been transported over. This place also purchased all kinds of ore
and other materials, but most importantly, this place sold ling grains, but it was limited. Just this
was enough to cause all of Little Mountain Jie to shake.

Just as all of Little Mountain jies eyes were on Nan Sheng Village, a crowd of people appeared
soundlessly in a mountain valley.
Weve searched. There are two jingshi mines here. The jingshi produced here is not high, only
third-grade. This area used to belong to Sky Star Sect. Sky Star Sect did not manage to avoid the
calamity, and there were heavy fatalities. The other people have disappeared.
Other than jingshi mines, there are three more mines in this area. They do not produce much.
The primary product is Bright Flash Rock, Black Ling Stone Bead, and Greenwater Stone. The
primary producer of Greenwater Stone comes from that pond right there. It is called Sky Star
Lake.
Xie Shan had done a large amount of work to research all of this.
Zuo Mo gave a satisfied expression. Lets choose this place! He then asked, What about the
surrounding powers? Have they been investigated?
Gongsun Cha smiled shyly and timidly, They have all been destroyed.
It was not the first time he saw Gongsun Cha smile shyly like a teenage boy, but the coldness in
Xie Shans heart still could not be controlled. Gongsun Chas trademark timid smile was called
Lil Miss Slight Smile in the camp, and all of them were afraid of it as though it was a snake
or scorpion.
The female xiu wearing the black mask stood behind Zuo Mo.
This female xiu that had suddenly appeared had attracted everyones attention. However, no one
dared to challenge her. Even Xie Shan was intimidated by her powerful strength. Xie Shan,
whose cultivation had reached ningmmai third statum and was a step away from jindan, but even
he did not have the courage to face the mysterious female xiu.
Many people had been secretly speculating if the female xiu was a jindan.
No one dared to ask, even Boss could not get her to speak. No one believed their face was bigger
than Boss.
Looking at the female xiu that was always steps from the Boss, they felt that is was pretty good.
With such a powerful guard, Boss wouldnt encounter any danger. This meant they did not have
to worry that Boss would accidentally die, and they would collectively die as well. Dying
without understanding why was an extremely depressing thought.
Zuo Mo did not have a solution to her following him. The female xiu was of unknown origins,
and Zuo Mo naturally did not want her to overhear such secret information. But there was no

way around it. The difference between their strengths was too large, his resistance was not
effective.
Even someone like Pu Yao praised her with powerful. Her martial strength quickly rose in Zuo
Mos mind to an unprecedented level. In his memory, Pu Yao had never called someone
powerful.
Unable to communicate and not daring to attack, this was like the mouse pulling the turtle,
unable to do a thing! Zuo Mo decided to let it go, pretending that she was air, as he went about
his own business. The only thing worth celebrating was that she did not speak, nor make a fuss.
Other than being slightly creepy, there were no other inconveniences.
He found it strange. He didnt believe that she was going to help him for the rest of her life
because he had saved her. But no matter how puzzled he was, it was clear that he would not find
out the truth at the moment, so he could only go with the flow.
If the other held malicious aims against him, no one in the camp could stop her.
Zuo Mo could only comfort himself like so.
He decided to put his attention on what was in front of him. In other words, this is ours now?
En. Gongsun Cha nodded his head, and then added, No one to compete with us.
At the side, Xie Shan almost choked on air. That was a waste of words, of course no one was
competing with them! Gongsun Cha had taken the group and conquered an area two thousand li
in circumference, all of the powers had been plucked out one by one like they were nails. Even
the xiuzhe who were hiding in the caves had not been let off. Lil Miss had sent out many small
teams that combed the entire area.
Great! Zuo Mos eyebrows danced.
The people around him that were used to seeing his zombie face felt extremely unadjusted.
Boss face was more and more lively!
As they muttered inside, Xie Shan and the others waited for Boss next words.
After Lil Miss had left Boss place last time, the series of signs had shown that Boss was going
to do something big!
It had to be said that Gongsun Cha had been very successful in his transformation of this group
of lawless ruffians. The string of victories had increased their confidence, and the harder battles
had tempered them and helped them complete the transformation. This troop, having been

effected by a battle maniac like Gongsun Cha, always showed great offensive strength and desire
for battle.
Having guessed that there was something big coming up, this group of people were full of
anticipation!
Reality proved their speculation was correct.
Lil Miss had personally led the troops and carried out a blitzkrieg operation. All the powers in
the area two thousand li in circumference around Sky Star Mountain were almost all taken out in
the span of one night.
This was exhilarating for this group of battle-maniacs. The series of performance rewards,
especially the spots for the sword formation, caused everyone to yearn about finding another
eyesore and having a big battle!

Then lets build a city, Zuo Mo sent down the order, but Xie Shan and the others stared at each
other.
Boss, you said to build a city? Xie Shan probed.
Yes. Build a big city. We are going to stay here for a while, Zuo Mo said in a matter-of-fact
voice.
But we dont know how to build a city! Xie Shan frowned.
Zuo Mo rubbed his chin. Oh, that is a problem.
Very quickly, the camp received a second round of skill selection. With the example of the first
round of selection before them, the qualifying round this time filled many people with
anticipation since the reward from the first round had been a very enviable one.
Fourth-grade Golden Crow Fire!
But quickly, everyone exchanged looks in silence.
Build a city?

The ending was, no one knew how.


A headache instantly started. He knew how to make formations, but setting up formations and
building a city were two different things. If the plan failed now, he would not be satisfied. He
said to Gongsun Cha, Send some people out to investigate where there are xiuzhe who know
how to build cities! If they find one, no matter the method, they have to get the person back
here.
The first thing Gongsun Cha did after returning was to gather everyone together.
Who knows where there would be xiuzhe that know how to build cities?
After continuous battle, the number of xiuzhe in the camp had rolled like a snowball and reached
seven hundred and thirty people. However, the true core of power, and the ones with highest
attack power were the one or two hundred people that had been there since the beginning. The
remaining xiuzhe needed time in order to become offensive fighters.
The benefit of more people was more information.
As expected, several people provided some related information. Gongsun Cha instantly sent
people out to investigate immediately. The cataclysm in Little Mountain Jie had been very
severe. Much of the information that had been provided were things they had known from
before. Many were useless information that needed to be further investigated.
Just as Zuo Mo and the others were in a panic, Nan Sheng Village had opened.

He Xiang looked at the waves of people on the street with ambition. He felt his future prospects
were a road of light. When he had heard that Clear Sky Sect had been hiring for the Outer Hall,
he had went over at the first possible time.
After having survived so laboriously in Little Mountain Jie for so long, no one knew better than
he did what the xiuzhe here needed, and were willing to pay for it. He had especially provided
large amounts of suggestions to the sect, and received a good appraisal from the Old Forefather.
He had personally been appointed by the Old Forefather as the Chief Elder and became one of
the most important people in Little Mountain Jie in one step.
He had not failed Old Forefathers hopes. He worked hard and diligently. His contribution in
helping reconstruct Nan Sheng Village in just a few months could not be erased.

A few days ago, they had tried to sell ling grains. However, that was just the beginning. What
would come next were the interactions with the different factions. That was the most important
part of this battle which had no death. As long as he could handle these interactions cleanly, no
one could shake his position as Chief Elder of the Outer Hall.
With the great weapon of ling grains in his hand, he was full of confidence about the upcoming
battle!

Sky Moon Jie, a non-descript mountain valley was abnormally silent.


A figure landed from the sky. In a blink, it disappeared into the mountain valley.
This xiuzhe then appeared at the bottom of the valley. The bottom was covered in dense layers of
jinzhi that would make peoples scalp prickle. It continued on for a long distance, and it was
possible to see that the person who set down the jinzhi was an expert. It was not possible to see a
hint from outside the valley.
This xiuzhe made his practiced way through the alarming jinzhi without even looking. With a few
twists and turns, he headed straight to a cliff face.
The cliff face rippled and the person disappeared.
The scene instantly changed inside.
A seemingly borderless grass plain, a winding river. No one would have ever thought that such a
large grass plain could be hidden in a mountain valley.
Secret realm!
If someone saw such a strange place, they would have shouted in shock!
This was a secret realm!
Entering the secret realm, this xiuzhes expression instantly lightened. The thick ling power made
him feel unspeakably comfortable. He flew straight towards the big river. There was a camp
there.
A few xiuzhe flew out of the camp in welcome.

Haha, you came back! The xiuzhe in the welcoming entourage smiled as he gave a greeting.
Must have been difficult!
No way about it. The xiuzhe who had just flown in said helplessly. Got stuck with this
mission. You guys have it easy, it seems you have made pretty good progress!
Haha! All of the xiuzhe had proud expressions. In the time you were gone, another two people
entered ningmai. The ling energy here is just too thick!
Thats so good! This xiuzhe was somewhat jealous.
After this mission, you dont have to worry and can just cultivate.
Hee hee, thats true.
Quick, Leader is waiting for the news!
En!
The people instantly increased their speed as they flew towards the camp.
After landing, this xiuzhe instantly went to a tent.
Come in! A deep male voice.
He hurriedly walked into the tent, and respectfully bowed to the male inside. Daren, I have
come back.
It must have been great trouble for you! The male inside the tent raised his face and said in a
warm tone.
If Zuo Mo saw this person, he would definitely recognize who it was.
Bo Feng, the mysterious competitor that had appeared at the Sword Test Conference, a person of
mysterious power. It had been him who had bought the location of the secret sect from Zuo Mo.
He had actually stayed behind in Sky Moon Jie!
Translator Ramblings: So a new character arrives and has great plans for Little Mountain Jie. If
Clear Sky Sect can have a village, why cant Zuo Mo build a city? Another peek back to Sky
Moon Jie. Bo Feng is still alive and pops back in after almost 100 chapters.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Forty Two Bao Yi
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Two Hundred and Forty Two Bao Yi
When did Nan Sheng Village become this prosperous? Lei Peng looked around, full of
curiosity.
It was not just him. The other people were also looking around with curiosity. The news that
Clear Sky Sect was opening a market at Nan Sheng Village had passed through Little Mountain
Jie already. The intentions of Clear Sky Sect was clear in everyones minds. However, the
situation was stronger than the people, and resistance would be ineffective.
Large numbers of xiuzhe flooded Nan Sheng Village, causing Nan Sheng Village to become the
most prosperous area of Little Mountain Jie. This was of great help to Lei Peng and his
procession. From every angle, their procession was not too eye-catching.
The leader was Xie Shan. Xie Shan had past experience as a leader, and he was skilled in
creating relationships with people. Gongsun Cha had appointed him as the leader of the troop for
this mission.
After seeing the many wonders of Boss and Head, and after multiple bloody battles, Xie Shans
mentality had changed greatly. The little thoughts that he had before had faded. He was clear that
even if he was the leader, he could not reach the present level of success. Lei Peng and the others
were willing to follow Zuo Mo not because they had been conquered by Zuo Mos dominating
aura, but because they found that their present lives were better than before.
For the great majority of people, this was enough.
The procession was fifteen people. The person with the highest cultivation was Xie Shan,
ningmai third stratum. The person with the lowest cultivation was Nian Lu, ningmai second
stratum. At a glance, this group did not show any signs of power.
But Xie Shan was full of confidence in the mission this time.
All fifteen people were old-timers of the camp, and were very good at teamwork, but what made
him so confident was that all fifteen people, including him, had comprehended essence!

Xie Shan had led many xiuzhe before, and had never encountered such a strong group. No, he
had never even heard of one. There wouldnt be so many xiuzhe that had comprehended
essence in Clear Sky Sects disciples.
Fifteen xiuzhe that had comprehended essence, this was definitely a terrifying amount of
power!
He felt strangely excited every time he thought that he was leading such a group.
Before the appearance of the sword formation, there had only been five xiuzhe in the camp that
had comprehended sword essence. Up until now, there had been thirty people that had gone into
the sword formation, and nine that had comprehended essence! Of the nine, eight had
comprehended sword essence, and Lei Peng, who practiced a sabre scripture, comprehended a
sabre essence. The one with the most unique situation was Zong Ru. Zong Ru had recovered
from his previous wounds, and naturally comprehended fist essence. He was the only person of
the group who had comprehended essence without going through the sword formation.
This was another reason why these people were willing to follow Zuo Mo. Nothing could be
more persuasive to these people than the increase in strength. Why did they join big sects? It was
to increase their strength, and breakthrough at an earlier time. Due to personality issues, most of
these people had negative experiences with other sects. They were very clear of the scheming
and plotting that occurred inside the bigger sects.
In the camp, as long as you put your best in to train, and were not afraid of death when you
fought, you would receive a corresponding reward. With spells, talismans, the sword formation,
and formations, everyones strength was flying ahead.
These fifteen xiuzhe who had comprehended essence were the elite fighters of the camp. Xie
Shan believed that as long as they did not encounter a jindan, their safety was guaranteed.
Xie Shan did not worry about the problem of safety at all. What he was thinking about was if he
could finish the mission more beautifully.
But before that, he planned on visiting a familiar acquaintance of his.
This old acquaintance of his was called Bao Yi who was a black market business man that could
buy anything. Before, he could always get some ling grains, and was famed in the profession.
Boss Bao, Xie Shan cheerfully gave a greeting. To avoid attracting unnecessary attention, he
had come alone.
Bao Yi was both thin and tall like a stick of bamboo. When he saw Xie Shan, his eyes instantly
lit up as he said in a warm voice, Head Xie, what wind blew you here? Come in, please sit!
Please sit!

He had made a few transactions with Xie Shan before. The two of them were quite familiar with
each other. He knew that Xie Shan had about one hundred people under his command.
Customers like this were primary targets of attention. However, it had been quite a long time
since Xie Shan had come. He had actually feeling that it was a pity since he had assumed that
XIe Shan had been killed. He hadnt expected the other man to still be alive. For him, this was a
good matter.
Why is it so empty here? As Xie Shan walked in, he looked around and asked in puzzlement.
Bao Yis face instantly wrinkled. Oh, theres nothing to do. Now that Clear Sky Sect has come
to directly trade, the business of us little people have become harder.
Oh, isnt the Clear Sky Sect doing large business?
Bao Yi explained, Clear Sky Sect only does transactions with big factions, but it isnt possible
for anyone to do business with small groups. Without jade disks, it is impossible to buy ling
grains.
With Boss Baos skill, getting a few jade disks should be easy. Now, Xie Shan was really
puzzled. Bao Yis network was extremely complex and broad. He had ties with people from all
levels of society. It should not be hard for him to get a few jade disks.
Bao Yi grimaced, When a person is unlucky, they will even choke on water. The Chief, Elder of
Clear Sky Sect Outer Hall, He Xiang, and I had a little conflict in the past.
Xie Shan finally understood. He acted to frown. So its like that. Then this wont be easy to do.
Yes, exactly. Bao Yis face was mournful as he sighed. I had come to Nan Sheng to see if
there were any good opportunities. Its a coincidence that Boss Xie is also here. After two more
days, Im leaving.
He managed to rouse his spirits. Does Boss Xie want to buy something? I have a bit left, not too
much, but the quality isnt bad. If Boss Xie is interested, I can give a price and you can take the
lot.

Xie Shans mouth continued to talk as his mind whirled furiously. If Boss wanted to build a city,
then he wanted to do something big. He was not ignorant. He knew that it was not so easy to
build a city. This Bao Yi might be a bit black-hearted but he was an expert at business who also
had hate towards Clear Sky Sect.
It was the first time Xie Shan had been given an important task. Naturally, he wanted to perform
well. If he could accomplish a great service, Boss probably would not refuse him if he went and
asked for a thread of Golden Crow Fire.
The mission this time was to find xiuzhe that knew how to build a city, but if he could find some
more talents, wouldnt his service be greater?
He had been a leader for a period of time, and naturally understood more as to how to think of
problems from the perspective of a leader.

Seeing Xie Shan did not seem to be interested in his wares, Bao Yis heart became even more
bitter. This recent while, the matter of He Xiang and he having previously had a conflict had
somehow passed around. His business had instantly dropped and no one came to his doors. How
could he not know what had gone on in the shadows?
If this place does not want to keep ye, there naturally are places that can keep ye! Old Bao,
theres nothing to be said about your abilities. Weve made more than one transaction before, and
we know each other very well. What about it, do you have any interest in helping this brother?
Xie Shan smiled cheerfully as he looked at Bao Yi.
Bao Yi gazed with slight shock at Xie Shan. Xie Shan had spoken so plainly that he knew what it
meant. But it was that bluntness that shocked him. Xie Shan might have one hundred people, but
in Little Mountain Jie, that was only a little faction. Right now, his tone was so grand, had Xie
Shan struck it rich?
He was very familiar with Xie Shan and knew that Xie Shan was not an arrogant and irrational
person.
As he thought inside, Bao Yi asked in return, Does Boss Xie not care about worsening your
relationship with Clear Sky Sect?

Xie Shan chuckled. Old Bao, dont probe. I dare to say this because I have some certainly.
Bao Yis expression became slightly wary. If this little brother goes, what will I do?
Of course it is to do your old occupation, business. Xie Shan thought for a beat before saying,
However, I dont dare to promise you. It depends on what Boss is going to say.
Boss! Bao Yi was shocked. There was someone else behind Xie Shan! It definitely would not be
a weak power if it had managed to take in Xie Shan. He examined Xie Shan, and saw the
confidence that naturally spilled out when Xie Shan mentioned his boss. Also, this power did not
seem to be very afraid of Clear Sky Sect. This puzzled him. He could not think of any power in
Little Mountain Jie that was not afraid of Clear Sky Sect.
Xie Shan was a clever person. Seeing Bao Yi, he knew what the other was thinking, and roared
with laughter, using his words to enlighten Bao Yi. Why is Boss Bao wavering? I cannot think
of any situation that is worse than the present one!
Bao Yi thought, that was right, what could be worse than his present situation? Since the other
already knew he was on bad terms with Clear Sky Sect yet still dared to hire him, then he had to
have some form of support. He had some savings but everyone knew how that he and Clear Sky
Sect were on bad terms. They probably had already started scheming against him.
Clear Sky Sect might restrict fighting in Nan Sheng Village, but if he was robbed, it was very
likely that Clear Sky Sect had been acting against him up in the shadows.
After thinking it through, he did not hesitate any longer. Since Boss Xie holds Bao Yi in such
esteem, Im not one to not recognize what is good for me. From now on, please take good care of
me!
Ha ha! Thats fine, fine! Xie Shans mood instantly rose.
Bao Yi smiled. We didnt come here this time for the ling grains, right?
The word we instantly tightened the distance between the two people. Xie Shan was very
satisfied that Bao Yi had entered his role so quickly. He raised a thumb up at Bao Yi. Old Bao is
so smart. Boss heard that many xiuzhe were gathering in Nan Sheng Village, and told me to come
to see if we can hire some talents.
He decided to reveal some information to Bao Yi. He had come to see Bao Yi originally to find
some information, but out of consideration for safety, he had not directly said that he was looking
into the xiuzhe of the village.
Bao Yi said in a deep voice, What kind of talent does our boss want to hire? This little brother
has stayed for a while at Nan Sheng Village and might know something.

Xie Shans eye lit up. Anyone that has one skill.
Bao Yi had a general understanding. This boss that he had never met before had an extremely
strong base, and his ambitions were not small. These days, in Little Mountain Jie, the days of any
kind of xiuzhe other than combat xiu were extremely difficult.
Since he had decided to enter the others group, Bao Yi decided he needed to perform well.
In any organization, in order to be recognized, the simplest method was to let the boss see your
abilities, and understand your value!
Do we have enough manpower? he asked.
Enough. Xie Shan was full of confidence.
If it is like that Bao Yis heart rose, and he said hatefully, then we shall do something
big!
Translator Ramblings: The mystery female is not Xiao Guo or any other female previously seen
in the story. Xiao Guo is not so talented that she could become more powerful than Zuo Mo is at
present. Shes not a genius like Wei Sheng and she cannot advance so rapidly that she could
break through the yao blockade herself.
Not much Zuo Mo, but he is the focus of everything. Xie Shan really wants to get a good
position in LilMiss Zuo Mos army. Also, fifteen people that comprehended essence. In the Wu
Kong Sword Sect disciples, there were only the three weirdo monsters. So Zuo Mo is now
commanding Wu Kong Sword Sect * 5 but he has no jindan so Wu Kong Sword Sect will win in
a face off.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Forty Three Jade Scroll
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Two Hundred and Forty Three Jade Scroll
In the secret realm, his subordinate xiuzhe were giving their reports.
The yao army has established their base in the Wu Kong Mountains. It is very heavily guarded.
Our people do not dare to go close.

Bo Feng nodded. Do not alert them but keep an eye on them. If they make any unusual
movements, report immediately.
Yes!
Bo Feng asked some more questions about the details before letting the xiuzhe leave.
When the xiuzhe left the tent, two figures suddenly appeared inside the tent. Bo Feng did not
seem to be surprised.
What are you really looking for? Gui Feng asked in a rough voice. At his side, Chang Hengs
expression was indifferent as though he did not care about this question.
Ha ha, youll know when it is time. Bo Feng smiled.
Chang Heng was not interested in this matter. He stared at Bo Feng. Give the other half of the
scripture to me.
Bo Feng said easily, No problem.
Gui Fengs expression changed. He seemed to be thinking.

Zuo Mo carefully looked at the black butterfly in front of him. Chun Yu Cheng was at his side,
his eyes blazing as he observed the black butterfly. Zuo Mos mind had received a notice that the
Rainbow Mark butterfly had broken through its cocoon. Zuo Mo had hurriedly pulled Chun Yu
Cheng with him. When Chun Yu Cheng heard that the Rainbow Mark butterfly had finished its
metamorphosis, it instantly stirred his interest and he took a rare absence from his beast pool.
The Rainbow Mark butterfly had completely changed. The rainbow colors that had covered its
entire body had disappeared. Now, its body was completely black, contrasting against a pair of
lively eyes.
Can the spells still be used? Chun Yu Cheng asked.
Still useable, and there now seems to be one more spell. Zuo Mo closed his eyes and carefully
communicated with the black butterfly.

When he started his communication, he instantly felt a difference compared to the past. Before,
he could only feel some pieces of what the Rainbow Mark butterfly could feel. Presently, he
could clearly feel the emotions of the butterfly.
The black butterfly had become more intelligent than before.
So it leveled up! Chun Yu Cheng said with excitement. Previously, it was just a third-grade
ling beast. Now, it should be a fourth-grade ling beast! No wonder it has another spell! Have you
discovered what kind of spell it is?
A very weird spell. Zuo Mos expression was slightly weird.
What spell? Chun Yu Cheng asked impatiently.
Poison Ling!
Poison Ling? What kind of spell is that? Chun Yu Cheng was puzzled. He had never heard of
this kind of spell.
It is unclear. Zuo Mo shook his head. He was also ignorant.
The two people looked at each other, with their faces confused. However, they did find out that
the Rainbow Mark butterfly had leveled up to fourth-grade. Due to the black color of its body,
Zuo Mo decided to change its name to Black Butterfly. He would have to slowly investigate
what this poison ling was.
It would be great if it could level up to become a fifth-grade ling beast. Zuo Mo drooled as he
dreamed. He decided that he would definitely feed anything poisonous to the Black Butterfly if
he found them in the future. He had personally experienced how powerful a fifth-grade ling beast
was. If the Black Butterfly could level up to fifth-grade, it could definitely beat down the bloody
horn serpent.
Of course, he quickly wiped clean his drool. It had been so difficult to level up to fourth-grade
from third-grade.. He could only dream about leveling up to fifth-grade.
He picked up the gourd as well. The poison inside the gourd had all dissipated. It was a pretty
good container type talisman, especially for containing substances that were intangible. He was
not polite in picking it up. Chun Yu Cheng saw that he could not discover anything else so he
rushed back to the beast pool.
Right after Chun Yu Cheng left, Gongsun Cha approached him immediately after. Zuo Mo saw
that the others expression was slightly strange and asked, What? Did something happen?
Take a look. Gongsun Cha handed over a jade scroll.

Zuo Mo took the jade scroll and skimmed it. He jumped in fright. Holy moly, theyre crazy!
I was frightened too! Gongsun Cha grimaced. However, these people are pretty good! The
last sentence revealed his true thoughts.
It really is very good Zuo Mo couldnt stop himself from reading further. The more the
read, the wider his mouth grew.
Shixiong, do you think we will take
Yes! Zuo Mo shook like a basin of cold water had been poured over his head on a hot summer
day. His energy then swell up. Holding his neck in an arch, he shouted, Of course, well take
them! All of them! Every single one! Do not leave one behind!
Ji Wei, Sun Bao and the other people that had been forging were frightened by the insanity that
Zuo Mo displayed! Only the female xiu that was standing nearby was unaffected as though she
had not heard it.

In the camp, everyone was busy cultivating. The new members needed large amounts of training
before they could join the combat system. Before this, they had all been normal xiuzhe, and were
too unfamiliar with things like battle formations.
It is so boring! A xiuzhe sighed. When he glanced at the group of people who were training
laboriously, he felt a burst of dullness.
After the number of people grew, it was not suitable anymore to divide into small teams.
Gongsun Cha reorganized the teams into six companies. Each company had one hundred and
twenty two people, who were then divided into six platoons. They were led by a company leader
and a vice company leader. Each platoon had six squads that were commanded by the platoon
leader who was assisted by the vice platoon leader. Each squad had three people, one of which
was the squad leader.
Due to the large number of new members, to help the new members quickly enter their roles,
these old-timers that were now the company leaders had all taken up positions as instructors.
However, to them, teaching the new people was an extremely boring task.
When they saw the raw cooperation between the new members and their awkward movements,
they were usually speechless. Even though they clearly knew that they had been no better when

they first started, but they thirsted for battle. Gongsun Cha was like a successful wolf tamer, the
sheep under his command had been slowly transformed into wolves.
They had started to thirst for battle.
Many people had admired Xie Shan and the others who had gone to carry out a mission. While
they held admiration, they could only stay and stare. Those people were stronger than they were.
They also understood that the stronger they were, the more likely it was that they would carry out
more difficult missions, and had a chance to earn more merit.
Even Gongsun Cha had never expected his unintentional actions had caused the sword formation
to become the most attractive prize! Comprehending sword essence was the best path to
increasing power.
A person said without strength, The earlier that we finish training these greenhorns, the earlier
we get to rest.
Laozi will never do this ever again! One of the people said furious, This group of trash. They
cant even perform the simplest Three Talent Formation after all this time, They are so stupid!
Please! Someone else beside him sneered, Hei Zi, you talk as though you were so skilled at
the beginning! We werent much better than them at the beginning.
Oh, when can we go out on a mission! Laozi is so idle that my tastes have turned vegetarian.
Hei Zi wailed, his expression dejected.
Yes, these days are too boring! People beside him also sighed.
Woosh woosh!
A humming sound suddenly sounded above the formation without any warning.
The two people stilled, looked at each other, and shook simultaneously before they jumped up
from the ground like lightning.
Hei Zi looked at the two new members that were still motionless and swore, What are you
doing sitting there? Move faster, this is the emergency signal! Finishing, he leaped into the air,
the two new members hurriedly following behind him.
Moving figures could be seen in the sky above the camp. The shouts of the company and platoon
leaders ran out frequently.
Faster faster! What are you procrastinating for?

Keep up!
Find your position! Dont move around!

A tense atmosphere covered the entire camp. All the xiuzhe quickly gathered together. Within
thirty breaths, all the xiuzhe in the camp had flew into the air, and the ranks had finished
assembling.
The old-timers who saw Lil Miss staring at them became excited. There was going to be
something to do, a big thing!
Gongsun Cha did not waste words. Seeing the troop had finished assembling, he waved his hand
lightly.
Everyone, move out!
More than seven hundred xiuzhe silently flowed like a soundless flood across the sky.

Nan Sheng Village, Great Wind Merchant House.


Little Wei, calculate the accounts for today The storekeeper slowly savored the ling tea and
lightly ordered.
Yes, Wei Cheng Bin instinctively answered.
The storekeeper detected Wei Cheng Bins inattentiveness, his face instantly darkening. What?
You worried about something? Do you feel dissatisfied with the work?
It was like Wei Cheng Bin had been woken up from a dream. When he saw the storekeepers
dark face, he knew that it was not good. He gave a smile, No, no! This one has just met a bit of
a problem in my cultivation.
Humph! The storekeeper snorted coldly. Cultivation? I hadnt seen before that Little Wei has
great ambitions! You want to reach jindan? To live, you have to be reliable. Do you know how
many people are trying to get your ration of fifty catties of ling grains per month?! Cultivation?
Dont waste this old mans ling grains!

Wei Cheng Bins face flushed entirely red.


The storekeeper glanced at him and drawled, One has to know their own limits. Little Mountain
Jie has not had cultivation in a long time ago.
Two-tenths off this months wage of ling grains. When he finished, he strode away.
Wei Cheng Bins head was bent, and he did not make a sound. Unknowingly, his fists were so
tight that they had turned white. After the storekeeper had gone far away, he relaxed his fists. In
his hand was a jade scroll.
This was a jade scroll he had received two days ago. It was an announcement for hiring.
The other had learned from somewhere that he had a skill at illusory formations and came to
head-hunt him. They promised two hundred catties of ling grains per month. Wei Cheng Bin had
come from a sect, and his best skill was some little illusory formations. He could make extremely
exquisite mirage formations. However, this great skill had not provided him with any benefit in a
situation such as the present one.
He had asked around everywhere, almost spending all his savings to beg to get a job like this.
Accounting, hard labor, cleaning, he did everything!
Compared to those xiuzhe that worried for ling grains, he was much luckier. Rationally, he could
settle down, but when he received this jade scroll, his heart uncontrollably started to jump.
He did not know how many times the shixiong had mocked him for playing with those little
formations. In many peoples eyes, he was the classical example of someone who only played
around. The sect elders had thought of him as one who did not treasure their talent, especially
after he had cultivated to ningmai, and had treated him coldly.
This job might let him scrape by, but he didnt know how many eye-rolls he had gotten. The
enormous store, other than the storekeeper, he was the only one remaining. He had to do all the
work.
For some reason, the sneer and disdain of the storekeeper flashed in front of his eyes.
Impulsiveness was the demon impulsiveness was the demon
He continuously told himself but his feet uncontrollably started to walk towards the outside.
What are you doing? You idiot! I raised a trash like you for nothing! You you dont have
to come tomorrow! The storekeepers bellows came from behind him.
Wei Cheng Bin suddenly felt his body was unspeakably light, his steps increasing speed.

In the dark, his eyes were as bright as jewels.

Chapter Two Hundred and Forty Four Consensus
In Little Mountain Jie, no one would pay attention to the flow of xiuzhe. What everyone was
attentive to was the flow of ling grains. As for xiuzhe, who would care?
Wei Cheng Bin found the place according to the address on the jade scroll. His heart was slightly
insecure. He should have first confirmed it. If this jade scroll was a joke that someone played on
him, then it would be terrible.
This was the place.
Two life-like authoritative and ferocious stone lion-type auspicious beasts were standing by the
two sides of the gate. He had some experience and knew these were mechanized golem beasts.
They usually were motionless, but if one dared to attack then they would attack at the first
possible moment. The black metal gate was tightly shut. The light of jinzhi occasionally flashed
by. He was slightly reassured. Families that had this kind of house in Nan Sheng Village should
have at least some power.
He put his palm on the copper bell diagram carved on the door and channeled ling power.
Ding-dong!
The bell sound was clear and ethereal. A moment later, the metal door slowly opened,
A brawny man with a face full of scruff examined him, his gaze as sharp as a knife. Wei Cheng
Bin felt his body tighten. He might be in ningmai but his combat abilities were very low. He had
broken through to ningmai due to a moment of enlightenment after working with illusory
formations. He nervously swallowed. The brutal aura exuded by the large man in front of him
created fear in him.

I I am Wei Cheng Bin two two days ago, I received a jade scroll, it said

Hearing Wei Cheng Bin stammer on for a long time yet unable to clearly state his meaning, Lei
Peng lost his patience and interrupted, Okay! This is the place, you didnt go to the wrong
place.
Finishing, he raised Wei Cheng Bin with one hand as though he was picking up a little chicken,
and flew inside.
Wei Cheng Bin closed his eyes in fright, his entire body shaking. Lei Peng rolled his eyes inside.
He didnt know who had suggested that he should be the one to welcome this group of people.
Every single one person in this group was as cowardly as mice, and shook whenever they saw
him.
This compound was just one of Bao Yis secret properties. As cunning as a rabbit, he had
backups upon backups. That was his usual conduct.
Another one came.
The ling power on Lei Pengs hand spat slightly, and Wei Cheng Bin was stunned into
unconsciousness. He carelessly threw him on the ground.
En, theres already eight in this batch. With him, we only need one more before we can send
them off, Xie Shan said with satisfaction. He had exceeded his mission this time. According to
Bao Yis intelligence, they had found three xiuzhe skilled in building cities. Without an
exception, none of the three were able to resist the temptation of two hundred catties of ling
grains per month.
He couldnt help but sigh. If they were anywhere outside of Little Mountain Jie, no matter where
they went, they would be treated courteously. But in Little Mountain Jie where life was worth as
much as grass, just two hundred catties of ling grains was enough to buy a xiuzhes life. As a
xiuzhe, Xie Shan couldnt not help but marvel.

Bao Yi was off to the side. He was rejoicing that he had made the right choice. Even though he
had not seen the Boss yet, but he had been successively shocked by Boss strength. Up until now,
more than sixty people had been sent away.
The people that had been delivered outside seemed to have disappeared into thin air.
There definitely were people who were cooperating with them outside of the city, and that
number would not be small. This group of people really were daring to act so boldly under Clear
Sky Sects nose. However, he felt very good secretly at being able to dig at Clear Sky Sect
walls.
He really had his action of throwing in the lot beautiful!

He Xiang looked down at the leaders of the different factions, the feeling of accomplishment in
his heart reaching the peak in an instant. Previously, when he met any of the people seated here,
he would have to nod his head and bend his waist, but right now, he could clearly capture the
fear they had of him in the deepest part of their eyes.
This feeling was really good!
He quickly pulled himself back. He was very clear what his mission was.
A warm and careful smile piled onto his face. His voice was very light like the clouds high up in
the sky. My thanks to everyone here for waiting so long, then we shall now begin.

Seventy people, it should be enough! How about it? Lets stop? Lei Peng said impatiently.
They had been guarding here every day. That Clear Sky Sect was really trash. They hadnt
reacted in the slightest. In the beginning, he had thought that this time would be a big mission.
Who knew that it was so boring and tasteless? He just wanted to return to camp now.

Xie Shan did not pay attention to him. He looked at the list and frowned. Why did the
remaining people not come?
Hearing this, Bao Yi didnt know whether to laugh or cry. We used ling grains to attract them. In
the end, it is like business, you and I have to both be willing. The remainder probably are living
quite well now, and do not want to move.
Then we will just leave them? Xie Shan was slightly discontent. He did not want to leave any
regrets in the first mission he was leading.
Bao Yi spread his hands. Then what? Its not like we can kidnap them.
Kidnap them! Xie Shans eyes lit up as he clapped in excitement. This idea is great! How
come I didnt think of it?
Hearing this, Lei Peng, who was at so much leisure that he felt restless, was also excited and
furiously nodded. Not bad, not bad! Well kidnap all of them! We wont leave one behind!
The other people snickered as they exchanged looks. Zong Ru helplessly raised his eyelids. His
Samhadhi had been interrupted once again.
Bao Yi paled. No way! No way! It is very lucky that our recent actions had not attracted Clear
Sky Sects attention! If we go to kidnap people, we would certainly alarm Clear Sky Sect, then it
would be great trouble!
Were not afraid! Lei Peng twisted his mouth and said scornfully.
Bao Yi hurriedly looked at the other people. When he saw the anticipatory expressions on their
faces, he felt his vision darken. He thought of Zong Ru. In his mind, Zong Ru had always been
calm and reliable. He definitely would not approve of this course of action.
But before he could look at Zong Ru he heard Zong Ru say in a voice filled with helplessness,
Should we do it now? Lets go, lets finish so I can go back sooner to train my Samadhi.
Bao Yi felt his head instantly sink into stillness.
All fifteen people agreed to the kidnapping. From the suggestions to passing the motion, it hadnt
taken more than a minute. To be able to plan such a large kidnapping under the mighty Clear Sky
Sects eyes, it was enough to make everyone except Bao Yi feel their blood boil!
Only this way would they not have wasted their journey here!

Since they had decided, everyone quickly started to finalize the plan. After following Lil Miss
for so long, they had started to learn how to make a plan, and the beginnings of being
professional brutes.
Bao Yis face was pale as he listened from the side. He decided he would definitely stay far away
from this group of madmen in the future! Especially Zong Ru. Only now did he know how
wrong he had been. Zong Ru usually indifferent, but when he spoke, malicious and evil ideas
were lightly thrown out.
With one word from one and another from the other, a simple and rough plan was quickly born.

When Wei Cheng Bin woke up, he found that he was on someones back. The sound of wind that
occasionally sounded around him let him know that he was flying at high speed through the air.
He did not dare to move. He knew the limits of his own abilities. Up until now, he did not make a
sound. He slightly turned his head, and warily scanned the surroundings.
Not ten zhang away from him, there was a xiuzhe. He was also carrying a person on his back.
When he clearly saw the surroundings, he was greatly shocked. There were more than one
hundred xiuzhe around him. Of those, only twenty of the xiuzhe were carrying people. The other
xiuzhe had placed them at the very center.
Wei Cheng Bin finally thought of what had occurred before he had became unconscious.
Which faction did this group of people belong to? They really looked like a big faction! Even
though he did not know his own future, but he was full of anticipation. It was very clear that this
was an extremely well-thought out plan. More than one hundred xiuzhe were protecting and
transporting the twenty of them, it could be seen how importantly they were being treated. The
other side had spent such effort so what they aimed for definitely would not be small.
Notice your rhythm. Control the output of ling power.
Preserve the flexibility of the ranks!
Combat units at the outermost layer, be on your guard!
Try to avoid the clouds.


He could hear endless shouts of scolding. What Wei Cheng Bin found wondrous was that the
xiuzhe in the surroundings did not make a sound as they continuously adjusted their position.
For some unknown reason, the stern silence this group of xiuzhe maintained made Wei Cheng
Bin to feel a different kind of power!
He couldnt help but make a closer examination.
The troop that was in front of his eyes were different than any other troop he had seen before.
More than one hundred people were flying, but the ranks were so organized it was as though they
had been drawn out with a ruler. The elites that he had seen before had been more relaxed and
spread out. In front of this group, they seemed more like a random group of soldiers.
He could occasionally see xiuzhe in groups of three or five moving far away. Those were
probably sentries.
The more he saw, the greater his shock was. The power that this troop displayed surpassed the
limits of his imagination.

Wei Rans mind was tightly alert. He was the division leader of the Second Division, but before
this, he had never lead a group larger than thirty people. He was worried that he would not do a
good job, and thus he was extremely attentive. He also worked hard at his cultivation.
This was the first mission he was undergoing as a division leader.
The mission that Gongsun Cha had given him was not difficult move forward along a
predetermined path, and transport the twenty people back to the camp. When he had first heard
the mission, he had released a breath, but when he saw the path, his expression became
unnatural.
This path drew out an extremely large curve. It was akin to having travelled in a circle before
returning to the camp. He did not understand why Lil Miss would make such a complex, and
roundabout path. What worried him the most was this path would take him through the
territories of multiple factions.
This meant that they could be attacked at any time.

However, when he saw the unnatural expressions of the other division leaders, he instantly
understood. This was a mission, but it was also a test. Lil Miss was testing whether they had the
abilities to be a division leader.
Up until now, they had not encountered any dangers.
However, they had encountered several xiuzhe yesterday that had skirted around them before
leaving.
Wei Ran was experienced in battle and understood that people had locked onto his group.
On the entire way, he had constantly maintained the troop formations for combat.
Seeing the increasingly practiced display from the xiuzhe under him, he couldnt help but sigh.
As expected, true combat would temper a person. The improvement they had made in the last
few days surpassed the improvement they had made in the previous month.
A blinding red light suddenly exploded in the sky in front of them.
Wei Rans pupils suddenly shrank. It had come!
That was the warning spell that their sentries had cast. He tried to compose himself, his mind
furiously thinking back to what Lil Miss usually did.
He raised his right hand to copy the aloofness of Lil Miss, his voice coming out abnormally
cold.
Prepare for battle!
Translator Ramblings: Ahh, Gongsun Chas insanity was awakened by Pu Yao and has spread to
other people. Headhunting talented people, no problem. Kidnapping people under the eyes of a
faction multiple times your size, thats a great idea. Taking those people and then making a huge
circle so everyone sees and attacks you, lets do it!
I like how Bao Yi thought that Zong Ru was the sanest person of the bunch. Dont be fooled by
his appearance and his type of cultivation. The guy was crazy enough to get carved on by a guy
who is just ningmai and the equivalent to a low-class worker in this world.

Chapter Two Hundred and Forty Five First Battle


The sentries that had been swimming at the edges started to spread out. Their job was not to
engage in battle, but to observe the direction of the entire battlefield.
Wei Rans expression was cold, his lips tightly pressed together. There were about two hundred
people in the enemy that were full of murderous intent as they charged. Wei Ran straightened his
back like a sharp and upright spear. He slightly floated in the air, the shouts of the platoon
leaders as they shouted at maximum passing into his ears.
All of you, be alert! Notice your position!
What is in front of you is a pile of trash! Kill them! Kill them all!
Later, dont think of anything. Where I go, charge after me! Whoever f**king lingers behind,
watch how Ill take care of him later!
Follow what you usually do during training!

The platoon leaders were doing their last adjustments before the battle. Most of the people under
their command were greenhorns. They all had above average individual power, but in this kind
of battle tactic style that demanded rigor, so cooperation was the crux of victory.
The rough, serious, or relaxed mobilizations burrowed into Wei Rans ears. He uncontrollably
started to heat up. He did not notice that a smear of red had appeared in his eyes.
This really made a persons blood boil!
Watching as the other side neared, Wei Ran raised his right hand again. All the noise disappeared.
All one hundred and twenty two xiuzhe were completely silent. The entire troop was like a great
bow that had been fully drawn. Everyones nerves were tensed to their limits, especially the
xiuzhe at the front. The ling power in their body vibrated, their presence continuously rising.
However, their feet seemed to be nailed to their spot.

Wei Cheng Bin unconsciously stopped breathing, his mind a patch of blankness.

He had never experienced such a shocking battle. This patch of silence was like an invisible
noose that wrapped around him and slowly tightened, choking his throat shut. It was slightly
suffocating. He opened his mouth to pant heavily. He widened his eyes, and instinctively stared
at the xiuzhe at the front raise his right hand. His entire body started to unconsciously shake. He
didnt know if it was in terror or excitement.

Wei Ran coldly watched as the enemy entered the range of attack, the raised right hand suddenly
chopping down.
Kill!
Pia!
The air exploded crisply like a firework. The furiously rampaging ling power of the twenty
xiuzhe that were at the front platoon suddenly lost their restraints and exploded!
Twenty figures suddenly disappeared into the air.
Pia!
It was another soul-shaking explosion!
Twenty xiuzhe from the second platoon also disappeared into the air.
Pia!
The third platoon quickly followed behind!
The trademark three section wave killing charge!
Each little troop carried a gigantic sword energy twenty zhang above their heads. This was an
attack created by the merging of three xiuzhes power! This kind of ling merging technique could
only be activated when the Three Talent Formation reached a certain skill level.
The gigantic sword energies tore through the air and howled. On the entire battlefield, all the
other sword energies and spells lost color in comparison.

In front of the gigantic sword energy, individual sword energies were as fragile as chopsticks,
breaking upon impact.
As fast as lightning!
One platoon had six teams. It was as though six staggered blades cut right to the middle of the
enemy.
Blood rained through the sky!
Six deep bloody marks appeared in the ranks of the enemy. Anywhere they passed, if one was
just brushed, it meant either cutting off the limbs or breaking the spine. With destructive force,
they penetrated through the enemy formation.
The enemy leaders eyes bulged out of their sockets. Drag them down! Their later power
Just as he had spoken halfway, the ghostly wail-like howl of the gigantic sword energy sounded
again!
The second platoon had arrived!
Six gigantic sword essences cut from a small angle on the right as they curved into the enemy
formation.
Pew pew pew!
After a string of alarming sounds of cut of limbs and broken bones, the six gigantic sword
essences plowed out six broad bloody groves. Wails passed into everyones ears.
The third platoon attacked from the opposite angle!
Just as the second platoon had finished passing through the enemy formation, the third platoon
had coincidentally entered the center of the enemy formation.
Wei Ran pressed his lips tightly together. The power of the three section wave killing charge was
evident! The courage of the enemy had been stolen, their morale plummeted and they had no
more desire to battle. What he needed to do next was lay down the last straw that would break
the camels back.
The fourth and fifth platoon suddenly attacked!
The enemy, whose courage had already been stolen, panicked when they saw the fourth and fifth
platoons press forward. In an instant, they broke formation and their lines collapsed as they
scattered in all directions!

Wei Rans body finally relaxed. The battle had been settled.
The three section wave killing charge was peerless in its killing power, but it was not as though it
did not have weaknesses. Its biggest weakness was that it was weak in its follow up. If the enemy
could stop the first few cycles of attacks, then they would be the ones in danger.
The giant sword energies could defend, but the ling power consumed was extremely terrifying.
Gathering up all the ling power before the charge was not just to posture.
Wei Ran released a breath. This battle was much smoother than he had imagined. It now had no
meaning. The leaders of the platoons directed the little teams to continuously move and cut. If
there was a small gathering of people at one location, they were like sharks that tasted blood and
would leap over.
The fearful enemy fighters did not hesitate when they saw the situation, all of them turning and
fleeing.
Wei Ran hurriedly sent an order to not pursue. Their mission was to safely reach the camp, not to
kill enemies. However, when he noticed some scattered xiuzhe that had been watching from far
away, he guessed that those were scouts from other factions.
This battle should have intimidated many people, he pondered inside.
The enemy had completely fled in a short while Wei Ran ordered some xiuzhe to clean up the
spoils, and everyone else landed to set up camp. The xiuzhe that had just come out of battle all
had excited expressions lingering on their faces, but they still meticulously completed their
orders.
All the platoon leaders all released a breath of relief. This kind of battle was just a minor matter
to them, but they had still been worried about the new members under their command. In total,
no major incidents had occurred, but combat had exposed many problems.
Some squads had not performed to their training standards when they had sent out the gigantic
sword energy in the fight, and almost were not able to penetrate the ranks of the enemy. If they
could not penetrate the ranks, and were bogged down in the enemy formation, the enemy would
immediately have swarmed and torn them to pieces. These platoon leaders still felt fear when
they thought of it.
Wei Ran did not interfere with the platoon leaders lecturing the xiuzhe who had made mistakes.
He silently patrolled the camp.
A while later, the xiuzhe that finished cleaning up returned. The spoils of victory were given to
the vice division later who would give them to Lil Miss when they returned, and then divided
according to contributions.

Wei Cheng Bin gaped. The swiftness in which the battle had finished with had surpassed his
imagination. When he heard the platoon leaders swear at their subordinations, he couldnt
believe it. Was this not enough? Such crisp and clean combat, such strong subordinates, then why
were they being sworn at?
He was not skilled at battle, but that did not mean he did not have good eyes. He could generally
see the traces of the skill of a troop. In his view, this completely unfamiliar and unique troop was
the strongest that he had ever seen without exception.
They were too demanding! Wei Cheng Bin was unable to understand.
This victory was great motivation to the xiuzhe who were being transported. Their anticipation
towards their destination rose. In the chaotic Little Mountain Jie, martial strength was the most
effective guarantee of survival.

Nan Sheng Village.


He Xiang looked at the fake smiles on the faces in front of him. His temple throbbed. The
negotiations were more difficult than he had imaged. These factions seemed to have reached a
certain agreement in secret, their positions were at a strange consensus. Even the leaders that he
had a good relationship with before had reversed their attitudes and remained silent.
He knew that these people just wanted to bargain, but for him who wanted to show his
accomplishments, his abilities would only be displayed if he could push the price to the bottom.
There were more than a few that were scheming after his position. He did not want to give them
an opportunity.
He smiled, not showing his thoughts. Everyone is tired today, lets take a rest. This one has
prepared a banquet especially for this, please, everyone come attend.
The leaders exchanged looks with each other, rose, and said they were tired and wanted to rest.

He Xiang did not force them, smiling as he sent them out the door. When the last leader left, his
dark expression could not be disguised any longer.
He needed a way to divide them, he thought inside. Just as he turned to leave, he coincidentally
caught the mirth in the eyes of one of the other elders and his mood instantly became even more
terrible.

Is everyone sure of their target? Xie Shan asked as he looked at everyone.


Everyone nodded.
Lei Peng rumbled, Motherf***er, laozi even had to watch him as he went to the bathroom, it
really is unlucky.
Everyone laughed lightly. To guarantee they would succeed with one blow, everyone had
rehearsed before. They had divided the ten targets among them.
We will move in two hours, Xie Shan did not waste words. All fifteen people had their own
techniques. He might have the highest cultivation, but he did not dare to posture. Fortunately,
everyone was rule-abiding and did not need him to nag.
Fifteen people silently spread out in all directions.

Lei Pengs target was a guy skilled in dan-making. Even though ling materials were now in short
supply in Little Mountain Jie, but some businesses still had some in stock. Due to this, this
person had found a pretty good job. Consequently, when he had received the jade scroll, he had
weighed his options, and decided to stay with his current employer. Especially since his current
employer was good to him and the jade scroll was of unknown origins. He was not willing to
take the risk.
For some reason, he felt the willies today as though something was going to happen.

This caused him to be unable to focus. Every time he had this feeling, there never was anything
good.
He raised his head to look at the sky. The clouds were very low in the air, dense and suffocating.
Medicine Master He, the owner is calling you. The busboy hurriedly rushed over.
Oh, Im going now. He refocused and hurriedly moved. There was probably another job for
him to do.
He had just passed through into the backyard when he suddenly felt pain at the back of his head.
His vision darkened, and he did not know anything else.
Lei Peng held him with one hand and looked around. Looking around to see if he had alarmed
any other people, he grinned silently before disappearing into the air.
However, not everyone had the same good fortune as him. For example, Nian Lu.

Nian Lu looked with panic at his target. A female xiu skilled with livestock. She was presently
teaching the other people how to put together feed for ling beasts. These apprentices were
extremely respectful and listened carefully.
The time to act had arrived!
Seeing that the target would definitely not be leaving soon, Nian Lu gritted his teeth, and decided
to move.
His figure was like a ghost that appeared behind the female xiu. His hand gently chopped, his left
hand raising and grasping. The unconscious female xiu was on his back.
His movements were clean and crisp.
Only when he had disappeared through the door did the apprentices finally react, yelling in fear.
The guards of the store were instantly alerted and flew into the air.
The same situation, at the same time, occurred at different places in Nan Sheng Village.

Nan Sheng Village instantly became a mess!

One problem of posting a translation before it is complete is that terms can be modified and
changed but people get used to the terms already in use and there are a lot of chapters that are

the posted chapters annoys me and I feel it is irresponsible of me because changing terms leads
to reader confusion. Editing and keeping terms consistent is a hard task so please go thank

Chapter Two Hundred and Forty Six Ambush
The camp.
Zuo Mo looked at the female xiu and scratched his head, You need a name. This way, we can
call each other. After changing his body, his hair had become short. When he scratched, he felt
the hair was prickly like metal wire. So strange. How could his hair be this hard?
The female xiu did not seem to hear him.
When Zuo Mo had inspected her injuries last time, he found that there was a strange and icy
power inside her body. The reason the alarming injuries inside her body had not worsen was due
to this strange power. This unknown power was like strong spider silk that reached into every
corner of her body. Zuo Mo would think sometimes that if the strange power did not exist, her
body would shatter into pieces.

The reason her presence caused fear in others should also be caused by this unknown power, Zuo
Mo thought to himself. No one dared to go near her. Even Silly Bird, the silly big sister, did not
dare to go within three zhang of her, not to mention the cowardly pair of Lil Pagoda and Lil
Black.
Seeing the female xius lack of response, Zuo Mo put his attention back on the wiry hair on his
scalp. He wouldnt be turning into a yao beast, right? he thought inside.
The three Golden Armor Guards stood nearby with their swords. They also seemed to be slightly
afraid of the female xiu. Werent the Golden Armor Guards golems? Why would they be afraid of
a person?
The female xiu was a puzzle.
It seemed like there would be no result today. Zuo Mo shook his head. He had persisted in
chatting with the female xiu everyday to deepen their connection, but up until now, there was no
result. She was like a stone statue that stood there motionlessly. Zuo Mo had never even heard
her speak.
Was she mute?
Zuo Mo thought uncertainly. In his mind, this female did not seem to have come from a big sect,
because she was truly too unclean and ugly. Behind the disheveled appearance was a mess of
dense lichen-like scabies. The only part untouched was the pair of bare feet.
In reality, Zuo Mo had never seen such beautiful feet. Symmetrical and white like jade and
porcelain. There were no flaws. They were warm and delicate, exquisite like nothing else. When
Zuo Mo had been inspecting her injuries, and when he had seen this pair of bare feet for the first
time, his mind had blanked for a moment.
They seemed to hold a fatal attraction that made one unable to move their gaze aside.
It was a pity that scabies covered everything above the knees.
She wore the mask and a loose hemp robe. Her bare feet were in the mud. The snowy white and
fine bare feet and the black mud made a strong contrast. Every time Zuo Mo saw it, he would
uncontrollably stop breathing. What followed after would be pity. It was very pitiful for a woman
to be covered in scabies.
He sighed inside. He didnt know what he was sighing about. He flew onto a mountain peak.
Looking into the distance, the sky was tourmaline and the white clouds were like silk. The wind
was gentle and refreshing. At the base of the mountain, the Sky Star Lake was like a clear jewel
embedded among the mountain peaks.

Zuo Mos mood instantly opened up. Little Mountain Jie might have lost its ling energy, but
there was not much of a difference to these flora and wild beasts. Due to the lack of activity of
xiuzhe, the mountains were even more green.
In order to construct the city, he moved the camp to Sky Star Mountain. He suddenly thought of
the unwillingness on Chun Yu Chengs face, he grinned. Chun Shidi was really a manic about
livestock.
Ji Wei and Sun Bao led their subordinates and furiously rushed about.
The amount of materials needed to construct a city was an exceedingly terrifying number. For
example, the bricks. Most of them had to be cut from the mountain. Each piece had to be
processed and carved with formations. It was not hard for xiuzhe to cut rocks, but processing
them was not as easy.
To increase the speed, Zuo Mo had set up a large formation to gather large amounts of Golden
Crow Fire again. Each person received a portion. The xiuzhe naturally were overjoyed and
worked harder.
Each piece of bluestone was three zhang long, one zhang wide, and one zhang high. After the
Golden Armor Guards mined it, the xiuzhe would start to process it. What caused Zuo Mo to
have a headache was the grade of the Golden Crow Fire was too high. If they were the slightest
bit inattentive, these second-grade bluestones would turn into a pile of molten rocks.
Later, the problem was finally solved when they decided to first carve the formations before they
processed with the Golden Crow Fire. However, during the entire processing method, the
bluestone bricks would shrink to more than half its original size and turn to a blue gold color.
The quality was extremely dense and hard. Zuo Mo had experimented. Even if he chopped with a
flying sword, sparks would fly but the brick would not be damaged. Only when Zuo Mo
channeled all the ling power in his body would the sword cut halfway into the brick.
Such a material would not be enough to use to make ling armor but it was more than sufficient to
use for city walls.
Fifty xiuzhe were all tasked with processing bluestone bricks. Zuo Mo himself was busy with
surveying the geography. The newly constructed city had to have formations. The formations he
set up this time were to face a jindan. This was an unprecedented test for Zuo Mo.
The large formations he had set up before, including the large formation on Desolate Wood Reef,
were not enough to stop a jindan. He had seen jindan before, but had never fought against one
before. He did not know how powerful they are, but he knew they were definitely more powerful
than he could imagine.

There was an innate difference in terms of comprehension of ling power between ningmai and
jindan.
He did not know how great this innate difference was. He could only do as much as he was able.
The path was dangerous!
Looking at the mountains in the distance, Zuo Mos eyes were black and deep.

Nian Lu was carrying a person on his back while the scenery flashed by. His speed had not been
impeded at all. If one looked closely, they would find that a white lotus was under his feet. With
the white robes, the tender white lotus flower, he looked unspeakably handsome as he flew in the
wind. The eyes of many young females along his path lit up.
Whoa! So handsome!
The shrieks of the female xiu were endless.
The xiuzhe that were pursuing him heard the exclamations, causing their expressions to become
even uglier.
Nian Lu did not use any disguise at this time. He picked the most straightforward path, a straight
line!
Not just him, the other nine people had also picked straight lines. From different places within
the village, they all sprinted towards the village gate of Nan Sheng Village! If one looked down
from above Nan Sheng Village, they would see ten figures drawing out ten straight lines that
were going to intersect at the village gate. Behind them, there were between fifty and sixty
xiuzhe who seemed to be attracted and pulled towards the village gate.
Many xiuzhe flew into the sky. They were watching the spectacle. Inside, there were very
shocked. Who dared to be so presumptuous in Clear Sky Sects territory?
Lei Peng was the first to reach the village gate. He even had the leisure to look back at his
fellows that were sprinting towards him. Giving a smug grin, he then turned and slowly went
through the village gate.

The other nine people simultaneously saw the smug expression on Lei Pengs face, and they all
rolled their eyes at the same time. Without needed to exchange a word, they snorted, and moved
faster!
Ear-piercing howling instantly roared through Nan Sheng Village!
The nine figures were like nine sharp arrows that howled as they headed straight for the village
gates!
The gate of Nan Sheng Village was just a symbolic construction. He Xiang had never expected
people to dare to scheme against Clear Sky Sect. Who would dare to rampage on Clear Sky
Sects territory? Only if that person did not want to keep living in Little Mountain Jie. Due to
this, the defenses of Nan Sheng Village were pitifully weak.
The nine figures flashed past at high speeds. The pitiful gates were torn to pieces by the knifelike tailwinds!
Dust and wood flew at the village gates!
The xiuzhe in pursuit directly ran into it. Seeing the situation, they did not slow down. A light
flashed across their ling armor and their ling shields were opened as they prepared to directly go
through the village gate!
I just knew that these people want us to eat their dust!
Inside the dust, someone complained.
Countless sword energies suddenly shot out of the dust like bats hiding in the dark that showed
their vampiric teeth.
Theres an ambush!
The pursuing xiuzhe all paled.
Pew pew pew!
The xiuzhe at the very front basically had no time to react. Their ling armor was instantly
penetrated like it was made of paper-mache. Several bloody holes appeared on the body of this
xiuzhe. The expression of this xiuzhe instantly froze, his body losing control and falling into the
dirt like a bag of sand.
It was not just him alone. Several of the xiuzhe in the front did not survive.
Sword essence!

The xiuzhe at the back paled. Such destructive sword energies, there was only one possibility
sword essence!
Only sword xiu that comprehended sword essence could release such a terrifying sword energy
which could so easily penetrate ling armor and kill with one strike!
There were not many sword energies, but they were of different colors. It was clear they had
been released by different sword xiu!
There wasnt just one sword xiu who had comprehended sword essence!
The expressions of this group of xiuzhe changed drastically. Sword xiu who comprehended
sword essence were rare. One in a hundred of ningmai sword xiu comprehending sword essence
was considered a rare event. Why did sword xiu always persist in trying to comprehend sword
essence?
That was because the power of the sword energies were much greater if one comprehended
sword essence. This kind of increase depended on the individual and the sword scripture, but it
was certain that sword xiu who comprehend sword essence were much scarier than sword xiu of
the same cultivation who had not comprehended sword essence!
Seven sword xiu died in the first encounter.
Other than fear, the other people rejoiced inside that they had not been so close in their pursuit.
What made them even happier was that the collision between the two sides had swept away the
scattered dust. The other side also showed themselves.
Five people!
There were only five people!
Their hearts were slightly reassured. Even if these five people all comprehended sword essence,
but the number was too small. There were fifty to sixty on their side.

Zong Ru stood on the street with his eyes closed, his hand holding the Four-Flanged Vajra Gada.
There was no joy or sorrow in his heart.

His beaded bracelet had been destroyed in the battle with the Bloody Horn Serpent. Zuo Mo had
felt especially guilty and had the idea of finding a talisman for Zong Ru. However, Zong Ru was
a rare dhyana xiu. Dhyana talismans were even harder to find. Zuo Mo had suddenly recalled
that he had a damaged Four-Flanged Vajra Gada in his ring.
That Four-Flanged Vajra Gada was a true dhyana xiu talisman. When Zong Ru had used his full
power with his bracelet, Zuo Mo had caught a thread of the mysteries of dhyana talismans. He
had put in great thought and reforged the Four-Flanged Vajra Gada before giving it to Zong Ru.
When this Four-Flanged Vajra Gada came into Zong Rus hands, Zong Ru instantly knew this
wasnt a dhyana talisman of a low grade. The gada itself contained extremely abundant Buddhist
mindfulness. He did not know which great elder had carried this gada along his path of
enlightenment. Over time, this Four-Flanged Vajra Gada had accumulated large amounts of
Buddhist mindfulness.
The power that this Four-Flanged Vajra Gada could express in Zuo Mos hands wasnt even one
percent of what it could be in Zong Rus hands.
The Buddhist mindfulness resting in the gada itself was extremely beneficial to Zong Rus
cultivation. What was most valuable was that there were many scenes of the comprehensions that
the elder had experienced in Buddhist fixity.
Zong Ru, who had been troubled due to his lack of a teacher, progressed quickly upon receiving
such a treasure.
Other than his fist essence, even his abhinna which he had thought he would never form in this
lifetime had unintentionally formed!
He felt the warm and cold presence that came from the Four-Flanged Vajra Gada just before the
sword energies disappeared.
Zong Ru suddenly opened his tightly closed eyes!
Translator Ramblings: Uh, yeah, so Zuo Mo doesnt get women, but cough cough.
After a long time, something that Zuo Mo traded for is used. I know that Fang Xiang is good at
foreshadowing and putting down threads to a plot, but this time, I really think that Zuo Mo was
forgetful. So there is a lot going on, but he is seriously forgetful.

and Forty Seven Rainbow Mirage Light

This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Two Hundred and Forty Seven Rainbow Mirage Light
Zong Rus gaze was indifferent, his left hand held the Four-Flanged Vajra Gada, his right hand
formed a seal.
Duo!
His voice resounded like a vast bell. It was not high and exciting, but it could be heard
throughout Nan Sheng Village! With him as the center, an invisible hurricane swept outwards.
The faces of the xiuzhe all changed!
The ling armors they were wearing were already activated, but this shout seemed to have
sounded from the bottom of their hearts. Their ling shields were not effective at all. What
shocked them even more was all the ling power in their bodies suddenly froze for a moment!
Abhinna: Truth Speech!
The other four people took the opportunity to jump off the ground. Lightning fast, they were like
four flying swords that thrust into the crowd.

Ma Fan only took a quick glance and the battle field was imprinted in his mind. After being the
core for so long, his grasp of the entire battle situation was unparalleled in the camp. He had
undergone the greatest change in the camp, or rather, he had improved the most, especially the
presence he now had.
When he had been made the core, his performance had been very inexperienced. After gradually
adjusting, a presence appeared on his body, one that was extremely authoritative. He had
previously been an eternally roaming wolf that always gave people the sense of danger. The
present him was less attention-catching. His features were ordinary. In a crowd, it was now
harder to pick him out.
[Illusory Shadowless Sword of Destruction] was the killing move he had used the most in the
past, but as his understanding of sword essence and battle had deepened, he started to experiment
with simpler sword moves. Gradually, the number of times he used [Illusory Shadowless Sword
Of Destruction] had decreased, and his edges had gradually been hidden. After he learned the

fifth-grade [Void Movement] method, which lacked the dazzle of his previous illusory movement
method, the threat he posed increased rather than decreased.
In a chaotic battle, it was difficult for the enemy to even detect his existence.
Ma Fans stealth was wonderfully displayed at this time. He was like an unnoticeable thread of
light smoke floating among this crowd. There were no grand sword moves. Even his sword
energies were just several cun long. He was like a little swordfish but no one other than Xie Shan
could rival his efficiency!
In the blink of an eye, he had defeated seven or eight people.
Many people had not even found they had been attacked before he had disappeared without a
shadow.

Compared to Ma Fans clean and high efficiency killing intent that was concealed, Xie Shan was
a completely different style.
Keen!
As keen as a sword!
He was like an unsheathed sword. Countless five colored sword essences swam around him like
rainbow flying swords. The pressuring sword essences intercrossed, extremely beautiful, and full
of killing intent!
Xie Shan was a clever person. He knew his strengths and weaknesses.
In Little Mountain Jie, those with ningmai third stratum cultivation could be counted on the
fingers!
In the stage of ningmai third stratum, the lowest amount of ling power in the body was ninety
jing. No one knew that the ling power in Xie Shans body had reached an astounding one
hundred and eighty jing! There was a saying that if a person could get the ling power in their
body to contain more than two hundred jing, they could enter jindan. This kind of saying was not
reliable, but it showed just how strong Xie Shan was. He had almost reached the peak of
ningmai!

The benefit of deep cultivation was that those killing moves that came at great cost were not
significant to him.
He rarely used killing moves. His comprehension of sword essence meant that he could easily
face other enemies. However, Ma Fan had provoked his competitiveness today!
The pure ling power in his body were instantly channelled. The multi-colored sword energies
around his body brightened and vibrated.
A light flashed through his eyes. His fingers came together,and he pointed at the crowd of
xiuzhe!
Five colored light rose in the sky above his head in layers like an aurora curtain. The sun in the
sky lost color at this moment. As his fingers pointed into the air, the aurora in the sky suddenly
broke, and countless broken sword essences howled as they turned to streaming five colored
lights that shot down. Killing intent rose with the rain of light!
It was a five colored rainstorm. However, no one had the energy to spare to watch it. The sound
of air tearing made everyones scalp prickle!
What shocked the surrounding spectators was that Xie Shans move had covered all the xiuzhe
that had been pursuing them!
[Rainbow Mirage Light]!
This beautiful and ethereal name was a terrifying killing move. The ling power it consumed was
even more astonishing. One hundred and fifty jing of ling power. It was more than the total ling
power that the great majority of ningmai contained in their bodies!

Ma Fans expression changed and he did not hesitate in pulling out and retreating! He was not
the only one. The other two xiuzhe who had charged forward also changed expressions, turning
and then running back.
This madman!
They were extremely shocked. They knew that no one in the camp could compare to Xie Shans
cultivation but they had never expected that he was this powerful! Ma Fan could not calm his

heart. He had always assumed that while Xie Shans cultivation was high, but they were equal in
their strength.
Due to the incorrect assumptions, he never placed much emphasis on his own cultivation.
However, this scene today totally destroyed his worldview. They had escaped from this move
because the sword essence in the sky had not locked onto them. Otherwise, it would have been as
though they had sunk into quicksand and would be unable to take a single step!
Xie Shan used this move to show them that xiuzhe of deep cultivation were terrifying.
The xiuzhe that were covered by the rainbow rain were in tragic states. Other than sharpness, the
five colored sword energies also had a strange corroding power. The ling shield would only hold
up to several blows before it would break! The xiuzhe that had been struck by the five colored
streams of light were not able to even make a sound before their bodies rapidly changed into a
puddle of soft five colored mud.
Lei Peng and the other nine that had ran away stopped at this time. They stared with their mouths
wide open in shock as they looked in the direction of Nan Sheng Village to see that patch of
terrifying rainbow rain!
Before they could sigh, they saw the five people flying over. Everyones gaze as they looked at
Xie Shan had changed.
Xie Shan was not very smug. He only had thirty jing of ling power left in his body. It would not
be good if a battle occurred again.
Move quickly!
He did not hesitate as he passed by the others and threw out the two words. The others woke and
hurriedly channelled their ling power as they fled for their lives.
Everyone knew that they had gone overboard!
The killing move that consumed one hundred and fifty jing of ling power had startled all the
xiuzhe in Nan Sheng Village!
In the blink of an eye, all the xiuzhe in Nan Sheng Village flew into the sky. The sky was
covered. Their expressions were strangely similar, extremely shocked. Even the few ningmai
third stratum xiuzhe had paled.
One hundred and fifty jing of ling power, that was more than all the ling power in their bodies!

Not one xiuzhe was standing in the area covered by the rainbow rain. Ling armor, talismans and
flying swords covered the ground. At this time, no one dared to go and pick them up. The
rainbow liquid that was flowing everywhere was like a beautiful yet fatal poison.
He Xiang gaped as he looked at this scene, his mind blank. It was over!

Having stayed at the camp, Zuo Mo did not know at all that the affair had become so large. He
was busy settling in the first batch of xiuzhe that had arrived. The xiuzhe that were skilled in city
building had been delivered to Sky Star Mountain with the quickest possible speed.
Seeing the patch of wild mountains and a crude camp, many people had disappointed
expressions.
Zuo Mo did not attend to these people. He went straight to the xiuzhe who were skilled in city
construction and spoke of his demands.
Build a city?
The three people looked at each other, their faces filled with disbelief. Did he assume that
building a city was just putting a pile of rocks together and that was it?
Is there a problem? Zuo Mo looked at the three with slight displeasure.
The three people were not dumb. They knew that it was impossible for them to return now that
they had arrived here. If they immediately offended the boss, they could not think about having a
good future.
How big of a city does Boss want to construct? asked one of them.
Following the flow of this mountain range, it needs to include these peaks, able to defend
against the attacks of a jindan, able to
The three all collectively sank to inertness.
The expense will be a bit high, another person probed.
No problem, we have enough jingshi. Zuo Mos attitude was like that of a nouveau riche.

We need lots of manpower.


Oh, seven hundred xiuzhe, is that enough? I can also make some puppets. Zuo Mo rubbed his
chin and said to himself, It seems that I need to let Gongsun Shidi get some more people.
These words made the three feel a malicious intent. Was this person a xiu slave trader?
However, the three had seen the combat abilities of this group on the way here. They did not
believe xiu slave traders would have such a strong troop.
The three saw Zuo Mo was serious and started to also seriously focus on surveying the
landscape.

A few days later, Second Division had smoothly arrived back at camp. When Wei Cheng Bin
came to the crude campsite, he was also very disappointed. However, before he could recover
from the disappointment, the xiuzhe who had been hired were led in front of a person.
Ji Wei looked down at the crowd of xiuzhe that had recoiled slightly and shouted, Those that
know forging, come out.
A while later, they looked at each other, but no one dared to walk out.
Ji Wei had expected the situation and followed up with, Those that know forging can start work
immediately. Let me tell you, this place pays wages on a unit basis. If you are late and the
positions are taken, dont blame other people.
Just as he finished, people instantly reacted
I know!
I know too!

Ji Wei was not picky. He waved his hands, All of you, come with me.

Eight people followed Ji Wei, Wei Cheng Bin was among them. Because he had studied small
illusory formations, he had put in quite a bit of effort on forging. He was not good at forging big
pieces, but was very good as making small ones.
They were taken to a mountain cave. The mountain cave clearly had been just carved out, and the
person who dug it seemed to have no intentions of decoration. The walls were bare stone and
mud.
When they walked to the end of the mountain cave, they found that the area was extremely wide.
However, it was all empty. There was nothing.
Someone could not resist, Wheres the fire pool for forging? The gold steel drills? Without
those things, how can we forge?
Ji Wei looked with dissatisfaction at the person and bellowed, Shut up! You dont have any
conduct! Seeing the person shrink back in fear, he snorted coldly and did not look at the person
any longer.
Starting from today, you will be working here.
The other people had expressions of bewilderment, but did not speak. Ji Wei was very satisfied.
As to the things you mentions, this place has none of them, Jie Wei said proudly, Starting
from today, you need to adjust to a new kind of forging method.
At this time, the xiuzhe beside Ji Wei started to distribute jade boxes to everyone.
Wei Cheng Bin took the jade book with puzzlement. The jade box was very light in his hands.
What it contained was very small.
He looked cautiously at Ji Wei. Seeing the other did not seem to object to them opening the jade
box, he carefully opened the jade box.
His eyes suddenly widened, his mind blank.
Golden Crow Fire!
Translator Ramblings: Oops Xie Shan. Way too eager to show his worth.
I always have a weird thought when I read stories where there is time-travelling or being reborn.
How do they deal with muscle memory. Even if it was the body of a characters past, they
shouldnt be so familiar with it. Most of their bodies should been those of teenagers, so there are
many physical differences to a fully grown body. I can accept something having great knowledge

and tricks to speed things up like cultivation and dan-making, even playing chess, but when it
moves to the physical stuff like making a difficult dan with complex finger moves, Im
wondering how thats even possible. I have trouble typing properly if I dont do it for a week,
how do they overcome physical limitations. I can accept someone being the most amazing
songwriter after they travel back in time, but how can they sing so well? Even the best voices
need at least some practice.

and Forty Eight The Problem of
Settlement
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Two Hundred and Forty Eight The Problem of Settlement
When Lei Peng and the others returned, Zuo Mo was discussing the construction plans of the city
with the three people. Never having participated in building a city before, Zuo Mo was extremely
interested. Also, the newly built city was of extremely important in his plan.
To the three people, a strong village that could defend against a jindan was something they had
never done before. They were extremely interested. As to the feasibility of the plans due to the
high difficulty? That was Boss problem. They were only in charge of designing it.
What is the use of this beacon tower? Zuo Mo pointed at the plans and asked.
It is primarily to give warning to allies. Other than that, it can contain twenty xiuzhe. Its ling
shield can protect xiuzhe. Xiuzhe standing on the top do not have to worry about the attacks of
the enemy.
But dont you think it is too small?
It can hold twenty people, it is not small.
Small, its too small. At the very least, it needs to be able to hold fifty xiuzhe. That way, it has
offensive power. Also, we dont need that fire altar. We only have one city, we dont need to give
anyone warnings.
Without the fire altar, is it still a beacon tower?
We can give it another name. What about Sword Pavilion, how do you guys feel about it? Zuo
Mo asked with interest.
The three were wordless.
Zuo Mo clearly had not finished speaking his thoughts. Your plans are pretty good, but it is too
conservative. Pure defense cannot stop the attacks of the enemy. Jindan recover ling power faster
than us. If he cant defeat us the first day, hell come back the second day. If he continues to
attack for a dozen days or a month, do you feel we can stop him?
The three were speechless again.
One person argued, If a jindan attacks a city, theres no city in Little Mountain Jie that can stop
him.
There wasnt one before, but there will be one soon. Zuo Mo looked at the other, and then
added, If there isnt one when its time, we will all die.
The three instantly started to sweat, feeling hopelessness. Heavens, who had Boss offended?
Wait! Jindan! A person flashed across their minds, Clear Sky Old Forefather! There was only
one jindan xiuzhe in Little Mountain Jie.

Clear Sky Old Forefather? a person asked in a trembling voice.


Zuo Mo smiled and said, Your guess is so accurate.
The threes faces turned ashy. Zuo Mos smile was so evil in their eyes, more evil than a demon.
They were extremely regretful. Before, their lives were poor, but at least they wouldnt be at risk
for losing their little lifes.
Okay, everyone, Zuo Mo clapped his hands, cheer up. I know you are the same as me, you
dont want to die. So cheer up. Use your strongest imagination and give the most plausible plan.
One person looked soulless, but he managed to keep his composure. Boss, you cant defend
against a jindan.
Then what do we do? Zuo Mo spread his hands and asked.
This person bit out, If we cant defend, maybe we can try to kill him!
Youre crazy! The other two people yelled.
Continue. Zuo Mo was shocked inside, and gave a surprised expression.
This persons face was white, but this eyes flashed with an insane light. Jindan might be strong,
but they do have weaknesses. They are too proud, they believe too much in their own strength.
They would not care about things that look very dangerous to us. We can make a trap using the
city as bait. He may fall for it.
Its not possible. He will see through our disguise.
You cannot kill a jindan!
The other two muttered as though they were dreaming.
Zuo Mo scanned this person and asked, Whats your name?
Yuan Jiang, Boss, the person answered respectfully.
From today on, you are the leader of the three of you, Zuo Mo then said to the other two, you
two will be his assistants. If someone doesnt listen, hmph hmph. You wont live if you rebel
against a jindan, but if you rebel against me, you wont have a life now.
The two peoples faces instantly whitened again, and fell silent.
Make a new plan, Zuo Mo said to Yuan Jiang.
Yes, Boss! Yuan Jiang said respectfully. He knew that if he was able to grasp this chance, his
future prospects were limitless.

Gongsun Cha listened to the people report. Xie Shan stood at the side with an ashamed
expression. He knew that he had gone overboard this time. He had exposed himself too early in
front of the public. It was not a good thing for them.
Oh, so its like that. Gongsun Cha raised his head, and gave a shy smile. He said warmly, No
problem.
Xie Shans heart loosened slightly.
However
Xie Shans heart suddenly rose again.
Since you guys caused this problem, then you need to wipe your own butts. Gongsun Cha then
seemed to say to himself, Oh, this is a pretty good chance, cant waste it.
No one understood what Lil Miss meant in his words to himself.
Right now, Clear Sky Sect is definitely searching for you. Even though you have covered your
tracks very well, but they probably will not have to try so hard to find this place. Your present
mission is to stop and disrupt their pursuit.

Everyone instantly had an excited expression. Wasnt this another chance to fight?
The corner of Gongsun Chas mouth rose in an imperceptible curve. All of you will led a
platoon in this disruption mission.
Ah! We also need to take those new people?
The people who had just been so excited instantly withered. They finally reacted. What
disruption mission? It was a babysitting mission. Thinking about taking along a large group of
newbies that didnt know a thing, everyone, including Zong Ru, had a grimace on their face.
They were very willing to kill. But not one of them was willing to be a babysitter.
What, you arent willing? Gongsun Cha smiled, showing his teeth.
Everyones hearts suddenly froze. They simultaneously shook their heads.
Willing, how can we not be willing?! Leading a group of people, it will be very imposing, ha
ha! Lei Pengs laughter was like sobbing.
Very willing, very willing! Nian Lu hurried to agree, afraid if he wasnt careful, Lil Miss
would fix onto him. Then it really would be getting a strip torn off his hide.
Ma Fan saw Lil Miss eyes float towards him and hurriedly jumped out. This subordinate is
willing to be the first to fight.
The other people instantly were upset. How come they hadnt been the first to declare
themselves? Ma Fans mind was getting better and better. He hadnt been the core for nothing!
Instantly, everyone asked to fight.
Gongsun Cha gave a shy and bashful smile, and said softly, You have to be careful.
Hearing this, it was as though everyone had been pardoned, and they scattered, rushing to go
pick people.

Zuo Mo suddenly felt he was much busier. All the xiuzhe that had been brought over had at least
one skill. He had to personally make arrangements for many people. However, before this, the
first person he had to meet was the one who had planned all this, Bao Yi.
Boss! Bao Yi respectfully bowed.
When he first saw Zuo Mo, he was extremely shocked. From any angle, this boss looked like a
youth that did not seem to have even entered his twenties. The more amazed he was, the less he
dared to slight Boss. To be able to gather together such a large group of people at such an age, his
abilities were definitely not something that a little businessman like him could underestimate.
After he took a tour around the camp, the amazement in his heart increased. Maybe this camp
was extremely crude in other peoples eyes, but in the eyes of someone as experienced as Bao Yi,
there were too many places here that were not normal.
That date seed ship was a rare jingshi talisman. The female xiu beside Boss and the three metal
guards enveloped in golden armor were unable to be quantified.
The first mission he received was to organize the stores.
He was very attentive to this mission. The stores could, to a certain degree, reflect the wealth of
Boss.
The storeroom was a mountain cave. It was heavily guarded with two whole platoons of xiuzhe.
When he entered the deep cavern, and saw the mountainous pile of talismans, he was
dumbstruck. In an instant, he felt all the blood in his body suddenly flood into his head.
Heavens! It was the first time he had seen talismans piled up in heaps like they were trash.
No one to care and repair them, Bao Yis first thought was, wastrel, they were wastrels!

After that, he started to organize through day and night. He organized and sorted the talismans
according to type and grade. When Zuo Mo entered the store and saw the reborn storeroom, he
was very satisfied.
You must have worked very hard, Zuo Mo said.
This is this subordinates duty, Bao Yi hurriedly said.
This guy really had abilities, Zuo Mo thought inside. Even though he was full of interest towards
business, but it was clear that he definitely would not have the time in the future.
You are going to be in charge of the store and be the quartermaster for the troop. Zuo Mo
reassured him. As the number of people increased, Zuo Mo felt it was increasingly difficult to
manage them all. The training and combat of the xiuzhe in the camp belonged to Gongsun Shidi,
but there was a lot of work in supplying resources. It had been a headache for him and Gongsun
Shidi . As to Chun Shidi, that maniac could not be relied on.
Bao Yi was overjoyed. Thank you Boss!
Quartermaster and in charge of the stores, that was a rich job. What he thought more of was the
importance of this job. After this, he did not need to worry about his status in this group.
Work hard. Zuo Mo encouraged and quickly left the storeroom.

Bao Yis job was very easy to arrange because no one other than him could do the job. However,
Zuo Mo felt it was very difficult to arrange the other people.
They were skilled in a variety of areas, some of which were very obscure. Zuo Mo still had no
idea what to do with them.
The only person he could ask for help was Pu Yao.
This problem. Pu Yao thought, and then said, Maybe you can borrow some methods from our
Yao Art Houses.
What methods? Zuo Mos mind became alert.
In the bigger yao art houses, they would take out a portion of resources and monies each year to
support those yao with unique ideas to study new yao arts. Pu Yao said, Of course, you cannot
avoid the necessary examinations and assessments.
Zuo Mos eyes lit up. That was a good idea.
If he didnt know how to organize these people, it was better to let them work it out, and he
could save effort. As to resources, it would be within the limits of their abilities.
What Zuo Mo needed the most at the moment was the least effort-consuming method. If it
continued like this, he felt that definitely would have no time to cultivate.
These days, it wasnt easy being the boss!
Translator Ramblings: The crazier the person, the more they get promoted in Zuo Mos camp,
and the higher the status. The best example is, of course, Gongsun Cha. Gongsun Cha making an
army is a long term process he is going through that is showing preliminary results. Chun Yu
Cheng is also doing the same thing. Hes had preliminary results, and now he just needs more
time. If he was useless, Fang Xiang wouldnt have wrote him in and kept mentioning him in all
these chapters.
Some of you have really good theories for what is going on with the mystery female.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Forty Nine A New Plan
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Two Hundred and Forty Nine A New Plan
He Xiangs face was black. The battle that had occurred at Nan Sheng Village was nothing less
than a slap to his face. Also, this incident had coincided with the most crucial moment in
negotiations. Looking at the slightly mocking expressions on the faces of the group of leaders, he
understood that he would not be able to negotiate for the price he wanted.
He needed to prove Clear Sky Sects dominance of Little Mountain Jie. He needed to tell
everyone what would happen if they went against Clear Sky Sect and him!
He Xiangs expression was twisted viciously like a wild beast wanting to bite someone. There
was none of the slight smile that had been on his face during the day.
All of you, just wait!

Zuo Mo read through Yuan Jiangs new plan. At first glance, he liked this plan, a plan that was
completely different than before.
Yuan Jiang was introducing the details, This is an extreme plan. All of the construction is about
one goal, our imaginary enemy, the Clear Sky Old Forefather.
When he spoke of Clear Sky Old Forefather, Yuan Jiangs voice was excited.
To be able to maximize offensive and defensive capabilities, we rejected the plan to build a
large city in this new plan. We will build a small city, a very small city, one that can only contain
ten thousand people. Over here.
He pointed at the highest peak.
As the new city will be small, it will greatly reduce the area we have to defend, and gather our
strength. Inside the new city, other than the basic necessities, all other constructions not related to
combat have been abolished. The new city will be a big formation. This way, we can
dramatically increase the defensive capabilities of the new city.
We will hollow out the other six mountain peaks, and connect them to the new city
underground. This way, we can form a gigantic Seven Star Formation. Weve never planned such
a large formation before, and do not know if it can stop a jindan, but this is the limits of what we
can do. Boss needs to find experts in formations to complete this plan.
Zuo Mo stared at the new blueprints without a word.
Yuan Jiang was slightly uncertain. He didnt want to ruin his first job.
What he didnt know was that his plan had given Zuo Mo endless inspiration, especially the idea
of digging out the six mountain peaks and forming a Seven Star Formation underground. That
idea was too crazy, too creative!
Zuo Mo was thinking, if it was like that, the Sky Star Lake could also be included in the big
formation.
Using the mountains and lakes to set up a formation, Yuan Jiangs plans had opened a new
window for Zuo Mo.

Zuo Mo had never tried such a terrifying and large formation. However, he knew that if this big
formation could be formed, its power would be greater than any formation he had ever set up
before.
The entire area around Sky Star Mountain would become an area controlled by the new city.
Also, it would be so well disguised. Who could think that anyone would set up such an insane
formation?
There were many places inside the city that could be improved, especially in the area of
formations. It was clear that the three people were less skilled in the area of formations compared
to Zuo Mo .
Zuo Mo suddenly thought of a problem. Power. Such a large formations, how many jingshi
would it take to activate?
An even more insane idea jumped out of his head.
Just at this time, he heard Yuan Jiangs worried words, Boss, the building materials for this city
isnt easy to find.
Zuo Mo silently remembered his thought and raised his head to smile smugly at Yuan Jiang.
Weve already started to prepare the bricks.
Yuan Jiang stilled, and did not look very happy. He said, Boss, for the new city to achieve the
predicted effect, these bricks cant be just anything. We need
Follow me. Zuo Mo did not waste words and turn to lead the front.
When Yuan Jiang saw the mountains of blue gold stone bricks that had already been processed,
he was dumbstruck. The other two people also gaped, looking dazedly at the glittering blue gold
bricks.
After a beat, Yuan Jiang managed to react and leap forward.
Good good good! The quality is comparable to talismans. However, it is the first time I have
seen such a hot presence. Yuan Jiangs expression was excited. Only now did he finally believe
that Boss really wanted to build a city!
These bricks have been processed with Golden Crow Fire. The quality isnt bad. A rock in Zuo
Mos heart landed. It looked like these bricks would satisfy Yuan Jiangs demands.
Great! Yuan Jiang was thrilled, Now that the problem of the bricks has been resolved, the
other problems are easy.
Zuo Mo did not speak. In his view, it was the exact opposite. The other problems were even
harder.
It really was a vast undertaking!

Wei Cheng Bins recent days were not very good. Rationally, absorbing such a desired and fine
fire seed as Golden Crow Fire should make a person happy. Even though there was none of the
ling grains that had been predicted, but everyone had received a Black Meditation Mat. When
Master Sun Bao had showed them how to use it, these Black Meditation Mats had become
everyones most treasured possession. Many people were regretting that they hadnt taken
enough jingshi with them.
No one had any objections about their wages turning from the ling grains to jingshi.
What saddened him was the work that had followed.

When he saw the bluestone bricks that were multiple times larger than he was, he instantly did
not know what to do. After that, it had taken him great effort before managing to process one of
them. Then he found that other people had finished three pieces.
Therefore, his wages were one third of other peoples income.
Master Ji Wei suddenly gathered people together. Who knows how to make small parts?
The dejected Wei Cheng Bin instantly jumped out, his eyes bright. I know.
Other than him, a few other people had also stood up. Wei Cheng Bin glanced and laughed
inside. All of them were people that had not performed well in the recent days.
Master Ji Wei did not say anything and gave them each a jade scroll.
Make whatever you can from what is in there. All the materials are over there. Its the same, pay
by unit.
Finishing, Master Ji Wei did not waste words and left. In the time he had spent here, Wei Cheng
Bin had gradually gotten used to the busy atmosphere in this place. There were no idle people to
be seen here. All the people, including Boss, seemed extremely busy. The cave was even more
so. Because wages were calculated according to quantity, everyone was furiously working as the
meditation mat meant jingshi became a life-saver. Everyone hoped to get more jingshi.
Only xiuzhe that had experienced the lack of ling energy and faced the possibility that their
cultivation could collapse at any time would work so crazily.
He started to read the jade scroll in his hands and made a sound of surprise. Everything inside the
jade scroll were strange metal constructs. There seemed like talismans but were not talismans.
There were very detailed descriptions. Wei Cheng Bing recognized them. These were for a type
of puppet.
He silently praised the wisdom of the person who had this idea. The puppet had been
deconstructed to many little constructs. This person clearly was going after assembly. Wei Cheng
Bin reacted. The number of xiuzhe here was limited, and there were no xiu slaves. Puppets were
a pretty good substitute. However, what puzzled him was that puppets needed xiuzhe to direct
them. With so many puppets, how many xiuzhe would be needed to direct them?
This thought turned in his head once before he threw it out. That wasnt something he should
care about. He started to work. A short while later, he made his first finished product. He was
greatly encouraged, and worked hard. He gradually found that the smaller and more exquisite the
item, the easier it was for him to make it.
Master Ji Wei quickly noticed his specialty and was somewhat shocked before giving him a job
with a batch of small items.
His wages quickly grew with astonishing speed. The xiuzhe around him stared jealously.
These days were actually not bad, Wei Cheng Bin occasionally thought.

Still havent found them? He Xiang bellowed, You group of garbage. How many days has it
been since they escaped? You still havent found them?
This group is very cunning. They had scattered and escaped which wasted a lot of our time.
His subordinate defended.
Dont find excuses! He Xiang controlled his anger, his tone dark, What I want are results! As
long as Old Forefathers order has not come down, I am the Chief Elder. Before this, I can
execute any of you!
The subordinates paled. They knew that He Xiang was not wrong.

Ill give you three more days. If you cannot find them in three days, you can take your heads to
see me.
He Xiangs words seemed to come from the depths of hell, cold and terrifying.
The subordinates knew that defending themselves was ineffective at this time. Everyone
dejectedly bowed and quickly left. The Chief Elder would do what he said! The Old Forefather
would not interfere. There were too many people waiting to enter to the Outer Hall, too many
people that could replace them.
When everyone had left, He Xiang collapsed on the chair as though he had been robbed of all
energy. His eyes were as dull as those of a dead fish.
Three days, that was the deadline the Old Forefather gave.
If there were no further developments in three days, he wasnt going to live any longer.
Originally, he had wanted to conceal this matter, and had not expected someone to bring it to Old
Forefather. The result could be imagined. If he did not display enough ability, he knew very well
the outcome waiting for him.

Ma Fan chewed a piece of grass in his mouth, looking in boredom at the sky above his head. He
muttered, Troublesome, it really is troublesome!
The platoon leader tightly followed behind his butt, completely disregarding Ma Fans
grouching. He was overjoyed at having gotten picked by Ma Fan. He was one of the original
ones and very clear as to Ma Fans previous position and effect within the troop. Previously,
many people had expected Ma Fan would have been the First Division leader.
This platoon leader knew one thing. If he followed behind Ma Fan, he would learn many things.
The xiuzhe under his command did not understand why the platoon leader was so respectful
towards this xiuzhe that had been inattentive all this time. In their eyes, the biggest reason Ma
Fan did not fit in with the troop was that indifference he exuded.
Idle, lazy, wasnt those things that the platoon leader extremely disliked?
They arent far from us. A piece of grass held between his lips, Ma Fans words were slightly
muddled. The platoon leader listened very carefully. On the way here, he was full of admiration
towards Ma Fans judgement. Ma Fan raised his eyelids, looked into the distance, and continued,
Let everyone recover their ling power. They will probably encounter us in six hours.
The platoon leaders expression tensed.
The slight wind in the air suddenly seemed slightly murderous.
Translator Ramblings: The effects of what Xie Shan and the others did at the village are being
seen. Zuo Mo gets the blueprints for his city and we get another glimpse of Wei Cheng Bin. For
the person who commented and asked about Wei Cheng Bin, his skill in making small parts is
much more profitable at the moment.
My reasoning on why Zuo Mo didnt really pick Sky Star Lake and the surroundings randomly
and it is not plausible to take over Nan Zheng Village. First, Nan Sheng Village is under the
control of Clear Sky Sect and there are also local factions. Gongsun Chas little militia is enough
to defeat a few hundred people but not a few thousand. Secondly, you can think of it as Zuo Mo
being located close to the jie river that he came through. He went deeper into Little Mountain
Jie. While Nan Sheng Villages location is not specified, it is most likely much closer to Clear
Sky Sect at the other jie river and not so close to where Zuo Mo is now. This way, he has the
freedom to expand his territory while still keeping himself under the radar (which Xie Shan and

the others ruined.) Lastly, Nan Sheng Village is not a place that is easy to defend. It has almost
no defensive measures which are effective. If they took over Nan Sheng Village and tried to hold
it against Clear Sky Sect, they would need to fortify it through changing the village. In that case,
building a new city might save more effort, especially if it is in a better strategic location and
Zuo Mo can design it anyway he wants.

and Fifty Pu Yaos Insane Suggestion

Chapter Two Hundred and Fifty Pu Yaos Insane Suggestion
Zuo Mo stretched and released a long breath, his entire body sore. However, when he looked at
the jade scroll in front of him, he couldnt help but give a proud smile. He had completely
improved the new plan. All the formations in the plans were redone.
Formation-defense-style, hee, have a taste of the true formations-defense-style!
Zuo Mo was very satisfied and proud of the finished plan. In the process of improving them, he
had benefited. It had been very valuable. There were many questions he had never thought of
before. There were many problems when building a city, and it was far more complex than
formations. He tried to put different kinds of formations into every corner of the plans. Unlike
Yuan Jiang and the others, Zuo Mo would use formations in any place possible if he did not have
to use manpower.
The enormous construction would become a shockingly complex formation group, a gigantic
formation belt composed of more than four hundred formations of various sizes.
Zuo Mo anticipated what expression Yuan Jiang would have when he saw this completely
transformed plan.
Pu Yao suddenly came out to remind him, This is a good chance.
Zuo Mo stilled and asked, Whats a good chance?
Gongsun Cha had become at leisure recently and spent everyday playing war chess with Pu Yao.
Usually, as long as he was facing off Gongsun Cha, Pu Yao would be much calmer. Many times,
Zuo Mo could not help but feel that Pu Yao really was like a child. Of course, this kind of
comparison was something a Sky Yao could not tolerate. Zuo Mo had smartly shut his mouth.
Your body is barely acceptable, but you have been lacking in your cultivation recently. The
potential of this body has not been completely excavated, Pu Yao said, his voice heavy,
Wastefulness is shameful!
Zuo Mo looked in shock at Pu Yao. That tone, why did it sound so similar to his own?
Wrong feeling, wrong feeling. Zuo Mo shook his head and threw the feeling aside. He said in
helplessness, Theres no other way. You can see it. Im just one person. I cant be split in two.
So what is in front of you is a chance. Right now, you have reached the peak of mountain
physique. If you take another step, you will give birth to the moon soul, and reach the level of
mo captain. Light flashed through Pu Yaos bloody pupil.
The level of mo captain?
Equivalent to your xiuzhes ningmai.
Zuo Mo was greatly disappointed. He was already ningmai. After the breakthrough to create a
moon soul, that would just be equivalent to a ningmai. It was not that attractive to him.
Pu Yao seemed to see what Zuo Mo was thinking and smiled coldly. Dont feel as though it is
unprofitable. Your physique has a name, it is called Jade Metal Head. Metal skin, jade bones. In

low level mo physiques, it is among the top. That guy really put a lot of effort into it. Your luck
isnt bad, you made it through. Once you have a moon soul, you can absorb the power of the
moon, and grow quickly. Also, there is an extra benefit to you that others dont have.
What benefit? Zuo Mo hurriedly asked.
Your spiritual cultivation is star spiritual cultivation. If you can cultivate to moon soul, you can
absorb the powers of the stars and moon. If you are lucky, you may cultivate the Stars and Moon
Wheel.
What is the Stars and Moon Wheel?
Just like you xiuzhe like using grades to divided good and bad, high and low, yaomo have
similar divisions. Mo cultivate their bodies. There are many considerations. Other than the mo
skills learned during life, all kinds of mo physiques are crucial, and there are naturally
differences in quality. Mo live under military law. They like using military rankings to divide
everything. Soldier, captain, colonel, brigadier general, marshall, king. That group of people are
simpleminded. Almost everything is divided like this, its easy to remember. Pu Yaos tone was
filled with disdain and scorn towards the intelligence of mo.
Then Jade Metal Head is what level?
Fifth in captain level. Pu Yao spread out five fingers and waved them. Seeing the
disappointment on Zuo Mo face, he sneered, Alright, dont act as though you didnt get
anything. Mo physique isnt so easy to achieve. Any physique in the top five of all levels are
what others dream about. However, you have to be careful, hee hee, mo physique is good, but if
you encounter those people that refine corpses, you have to be careful. Mo physique is something
they dream about too! Ha ha!
Zuo Mos heart tightened as he listened.
Then Stars and Moon Wheel? Its also a mo physique?
It is also a mo physique, but it is even more rare. Twelfth in colonel level, Pu Yao recalled, If I
didnt remember it wrong.
Zuo Mo listened and was even more confused. Is there any practical benefits?
Pu Yao stilled. What is called practical benefits?
Like can I defend against other peoples flying swords, like my strength is ten times what it
was, like
Pu Yao rolled his eyes, If someone like you can deal with flying swords with just your body,
you xiuzhe would have been destroyed by us yaomo a long time ago.
Zuo Mo was embarrassed. He found it was correct when he thought about it. If mo could handle
strikes from a flying sword with only their body, then xiuzhe of the same level would not be a
match for them. Flying swords could deal the greatest damage of all the talismans, and it was the
sharpest. If even the flying sword could not wound the other, then other talismans really could
not do a thing against the yaomo.
The flying swords of the xiuzhe are still very powerful, Pu Yao sighed. You have never seen
truly powerful xiuzhe. With their actions, they can destroy the earth and sky. They can even
easily tear apart space, and nothing can stop them.
Zuo Mo was not interested in those things that were too far away from him, and diverged back to
the topic. Those old people has nothing to do with us. This Jade Metal Head is fifth in captain
level, it should have some unique attributes.
Unique attributes? Pu Yao nodded. Of course. The biggest attribute of the Jade Metal Head is
that it is suitable for all mo skills.
Just this? Zuo Mo asked in response.

Yes, you dont think this is enough? Pu Yao looked at Zuo Mo like he was looking at a weirdo.
Zuo Mo was slightly embarrassed by Pu Yaos stare. But I dont know mo skills.
If you dont want to be killed at any moment, dont cultivate mo skills in the short term. Pu
Yao said solemnly, When you start to cultivate a mo skill, the presence will radiate out. You will
only die terribly.
Zuo Mo was dumbstruck. After all this time, every word was a waste. Then why should I
cultivate my body? I should just cultivate the sword. If not that, then even the consciousness
works. Little Thousand Leaf Hands is stronger than that.
In a reversal of his usual attitude, Pu Yao shook his head. If you do not have this Jade Metal
Head, I wont urge you, but with such a wonderful mo physique, if you do not cultivate it, it
really is a waste. You cannot practice mo skills at the moment, but that is fine. The Jade Metal
Head itself contains extremely deep potential. If you can dig out all the potential, when you
cultivate mo skills in the future, half of the work is already done, and you do not have to worry
about the mo energy slipping out.
Zuo Mo waved his hand and said unconcernedly, You say these pleasing things, but if we dont
get over this obstacle, any mo skill cultivation is useless.
Pu Yao was speechless. He thought and then nodded, You are also right. Maybe we can alter it.
Alter? Zuo Mo was slightly bewildered. What was with Pu Yao today? Why was he so chatty?
We shall do an analysis of what moves you have available. Pu Yao sat down. Lets not include
sword scriptures, your talent with the sword really is not good, and your sword essence level is
too low, not even at Heart Turn Sword Essence. It isnt even enough to scratch an itch for a
jindan. [Little Thousand Leaf Hands] is pretty powerful, but your consciousness is not strong
enough to threaten a jindan. The [Sky Wave Fist Scripture] is not enough against a jindan. The
only thing that can be effective is your big formation. The grade of the yin fire beads are too low
to be of significance. Those sonic lightning walnuts might give him some trouble if they are
forged properly.
When he finished, Pu Yao spread his hands. See, no matter what you cultivate, its useless.
Zuo Mo was extremely impacted and speechless.
However, some areas have potential. Pu Yao knew very well how to use the stick and the
carrot.
Zuo Mo became alert at those words. Tell me.
Its a good idea to use [Yang Fiend Hard Lightning] to forge sonic lightning walnuts. You may
want to borrow from the methods of the yin fire beads, Pu Yao reminded.
Zuo Mo slapped his forehead and said with joy, Right, why didnt I think of that? In the [Yin
Fire Bead Chapter], there hadnt been just one powerful way to make yin fire beads. Wouldnt
their effects be better than what he thought of himself?
He wanted to immediately read the [Yin Fire Bead Chapter]. The Clear Sky Old Forefather was
like a sharp sword hanging above his head. He could not sleep well. He had always lacked
moves that could threaten his enemies. Now that he had found one, how could he not rejoice?
Other than the sonic lightning walnuts, if your physique could improve greatly in the short term,
[Sky Glass Wave] may also give him some trouble.
Zuo Mo still again. When he thought closely, he instantly found it feasible! If his body
cultivation could make another step forward if the number of revolutions his ling power took
could increase, the power of [Sky Glass Wave] would also increase. He had used Sky Glass
Wave to break through the space shield of a fifth-grade ling beast. Even though the Bloody Horn

Serpent was just a semi-fifth grade ling beast, but if he could increase, he might be able to
threaten the Clear Sky Old Forefather.
The more he thought, the more excited Zuo Mo was. He suddenly found that he could attack. It
was like seen a ray of light in the darkness. Even though it was just a thread, but it still gave him
hope.
He asked impatiently, What is the opportunity you said?
City construction. Pu Yao blinked his bloody pupil.
City construction? Zuo Mo stilled again, What does this have to do with city construction?
The corner of Pu Yaos mouth carelessly rose, his bloody pupil narrowed slightly, and his
peerlessly handsome face became even harder to decipher. He looked like a cunning hunter that
threw out the bait he had already prepared. With a light laugh, he said, Havent you ever
thought of building the city by yourself?
Build the city by myself? Zuo Mo was dumbstruck where he stood.
Yes, build the city by yourself. Pu Yao raised his long and white finger that contrasted with the
bright red fingernail. He chuckled, Such a meaningful affair. A city that belongs completely to
you. Making the foundation by yourself, making the city by yourself, making the formations by
yourself
Zuo Mo turned to stone.
See, it wont just exercise your body, it can also exercise your consciousness and your ling
power. Where else can you find such a good chance?
A little city that can hold ten thousand people, it really is too small. At the beginning, I had
assumed you were building a little city that could hold one hundred thousand people at the very
least. That way, you will be exercised even more. Shall we expand the city?
Dont you want to kill that jindan? Your little life is the most important! The harder you work,
the more powerful you will be. If you sweat more now, you will spill less blood later
Hearing Pu Yao nag into his ears, Zuo Mo received a great fright. His eyes rolling back, he
fainted.
Translator Ramblings: Pu Yao and Zuo Mo verbally sparring again in this chapter. Zuo Mos
qualities has evidently infected Pu Yao through mental space sharing.
The stage equivalents Pu Yao mentioned in this chapter are not incorrectly matched up. While the
xiuhe, yao and mo all have seven major stages in cultivation, the stages do not match up in power
exactly.

and Fifty One Crazy Zuo Mo
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiofDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Two Hundred and Fifty One Crazy Zuo Mo
Even a person as unconcerned with worldly affairs as Chun Yu Cheng had heard the news.
Is there really nothing wrong with Shixiong? Looking at a half-naked Zuo Mo that appeared
like a maniac, he asked with worry and uncertainty.
Gongsun Cha shook his head and said, I dont know.
I heard that hes going to build the city by himself? Chun Yu Cheng carefully asked. He looked
with slight sympathy at Zuo Mo. Shixiong was normally a fanatic, but had the pressure recently
been too much , and caused him to become abnormal?

Yes, Gongsun Cha also responded carefully in a small voice as well, I even asked Shixiong a
few days ago if we should sweep some more xiuzhe over. Shixiong said he was going to build the
city by himself.
So the news is true! Chun Yu Cheng gave a long sigh, and looked again. He sighed, As
expected. I just knew that Shixiong isnt the average person! He looked in sympathy at Zuo Mo,
then turned and left with his hands behind his back.
Shixiong isnt normal, as expected! Gongsun Cha gave the same exclamation as before, also
turning and leaving.

Yuan Jiangs heart trembled as he forced himself to say, Boss, this this foundation, it
needs to be dug deeper to work.
Zuo Mo turned around his face, his eyes gleaming like that of a wolf.
Yuan Jiangs face paled. Luckily, Zuo Mo only glanced at him before turning back to furiously
start to dig the foundations. He jumped into the pit, his hands dancing as the soil flew. The earth
hole quickly increased in depth and size with a speed visible to the naked eye.
Yuan Jiang furiously swallowed from the side, his face filled with fear. To be in the position of
supervisor like this, he was to be pitied. Every time he saw Boss twisted features, it was as
though there was an ancient wasteland beast in front of him that could open its jaws and swallow
him at any moment.
He would be so frightened by Boss gleaming gaze to the point of forgetting to breathe whenever
he pointed out areas where Boss had not met the specifications.
This world was crazy!
The frightened Yuan Jiang felt everyday was full of darkness, so black that there was no light. He
could not understand what sickness Boss had that he would suddenly want to construct a city by
himself.
Yes, this city was really quite small. A new city that could hold ten thousand people, the smallest
of small cities, but it was still a city! As grown-up as he was, oh, please forgive him for
incoherence, it was slightly dubious for Yuan Jiang who was over eighty years old to say this.
However, in his eighty years of life, he had never seen, nor heard of a xiuzhe who built a city by
themselves.
What made him feel helpless was that Boss was serious!
As a supervisor, Yuan Jiang thought that Boss was a very exceptional constructor. Look at that
blinding speed. If someone had such a good worker under them, any supervisor would laugh.
However, if the situation was changed and there was only this one good worker, then they would
cry.
With Boss present speed, Yuan Jiang felt hopelessness about building the city.
What made him feel the greatest lack of hope was that the other was his boss!

Zuo Mo felt every piece of muscle in his body was trembling uncontrollably. He seemed to have
lost control over his body. He opened his mouth like a fish that was thrown onto land, his body
motionless. This body cultivation was really through. Zuo Mo felt even the insides of his head

were trembling. All of his power, no matter if it was physical power, ling power or spiritual
power had been completely consumed in this extreme labor.
In the plans for the city, the foundation was to be twenty zhang deep!
Zuo Mo had to use his bare hands to dig out the entire foundation!
Pu Yao was very devious
Zuo Mo weakly cursed Pu Yao inside. After resting for a moment, the lingdan he had shoved into
his mouth earlier started to release their medicinal power. The Black Processing Meditation mat
under his body continuously guided ling energy into Zuo Mos body. At this moment, Zuo Mos
body was like a parched desert that was greedily sucking in any drop of medicinal and ling
power.
After a while, Zuo Mo recovered some energy and struggled up. The sun above his head was
slightly blinding. He turned to glance at the half completed ditch.
Taking in a deep breath, he jumped back into the ditch.
The abnormal state of Boss had long ago passed through the entire camp. Everyone had been
discussing it in secret. They couldnt understand what Boss intended to do.
Zuo Mo mechanically waved his arms. His speed was very fast. His consciousness was
continuously released and reflected every detail of the dirt around him.
Pu Yao had been right. If he could build up this city by himself, his strength definitely could
breakthrough to a whole new level. But this was such a perverse plan!
Zuo Mo tightly pressed together his dry lips, pushed his head down and dug crazily.
He started to learn how to use his consciousness to inspect the surrounding dirt, how to use the
structure already present in the soil to save energy. He started to understand how to frugally use
ling power. Before this, he had never thought there would be a day where he would use ling
power so stingily. He started to understand how to move his hands as he absorbed earth energy at
the same time

Three days later, a square shaped hole twenty zhang deep appeared on Sky Star Peak.
Zuo Mo looked like a mud person. Only his eyes were revealed. After laughing soundlessly, he
sat down and crossed his legs.
Yuan Jiang was at the side, gaping as he looked at the twenty zhang deep foundation, a
foundation that had completely met the specifications. It was not just him that was gaping. The
entire camp was shocked.
Those xiuzhe that had had slightly mocking attitudes were so shocked they could not speak when
they saw this twenty zhang deep ditch. Who could believe this was something a xiuzhe had dug
with his bare hands? However, they had seen the entire process with their own eyes. Those
people that had watched in order to laugh at the joke now only felt admiration.

In the sea of consciousness, Pu Yao stared at the gravestone and said, I now understand why you
chose him.
You, he paused after each word, are similarly stubborn.
The gravestone was still silent, the black clouds slowly moving around it.


Gongsun Cha looked thoughtfully at the meditating Zuo Mo and turned back to return to the
camp. He ordered the xiuzhe in a low voice, Tell Ma Fan and the others to distract some more.
They need to slow them down. We need more time.
Yes. This xiuzhe took out a paper crane, wrote down a secret code on it, and lightly channeled
ling power. The paper crane flapped into the sky and instantly disappeared. Before, Ma Fan and
the others left, they had left behind their impressions. These paper cranes could follow the
impressions and find Ma Fan and the others.
Little Mountain Jie was not large. It was convenient to use paper cranes.
What about us? Another xiuzhe couldnt help but ask. Other than Ma Fan and the others had
each taken a platoon with them, there were still many battle xiuzhe at the camp.
The figure of Shixiong completely covered in mud appeared in Gongsun Chas mind. His steps
slightly paused before recovering. Naturally, we cant be idle as well.

Ma Fan scanned the battlefield. More than a dozen corpses laid askew on the grass. Large holes
could be seen everywhere. The plains that appeared to extend without end had been torn to
pieces. The ling power was lingering in the air. It almost was possible to smell the viciousness of
the battle moments ago.
The enemy had all been destroyed, but one of their own had also died.
The platoon leader s expression was slightly sorrowful. This was the first time that a fatality had
occurred under his command. The remaining xiuzhe were silently cleaning up the battlefield and
gathering the spoils. The victory had turned melancholic due to one of their own dying.
Ma Fan looked at his slightly dejected fellows and was somewhat shocked but also proud. In any
group that he had stayed in before, the morale would have never dropped after a victorious battle
due to one of their own dying.
Maybe, these were true fellows. Ma Fan thought idly. Just at this time, he raised his head. A
paper crane flew through the sky. He held out a hand, and the paper crane flew in.
Unfolding it and reading, he muttered, Trouble! He then handed the paper crane to the platoon
leader behind him.
What does Head mean? The face of the platoon leader was filled with puzzlement. There was
no explicit orders on the paper crane, just telling them to try their best to delay the enemy.
Ma Fan did not reply. Noticing the cleaning of the battlefield was almost done, he adjust his
clothing, and lazily said, Get everyone to prepare. We need to leave here. The enemy will
probably quickly find this place.
Where should we go? The platoon leader asked with curiosity.
Lets go south.
The platoon leader jumped in fright, Isnt that Nan Sheng Village?
Yes, Ma Fan said absentmindedly.
As his understanding of sword essence deepened, his original personality started to gradually
show. After the reorganization, he did not need to act as the core, and his entire person seemed to
instantly have relaxed, and resumed his lazy attitude of the past.
Why are we going there? To attack Nan Sheng Village?

Ma Fan looked at the platoon leader like he was looking at an idiot. We only have this tiny
amount of people. Attack Nan Sheng Village? Do you want to die?
Then why are we going south?
Ma Fan did not look at him. He plucked a stalk of green grass and held it in his mouth,
mumbling, Killing midway.
The sound of the whistle was like knives!

Zuo Mo opened his eyes, the light in them bright. He had meditated for three whole days! How
long had it been since he had such a long meditation? Zuo Mo thought back in his mind, his heart
filled with joy.
He could feel the change in his body.
Jade Metal Head, ranked fifth of all captain physiques. As expected, it was extraordinary!
He didnt seem to use strength, but his body seemed to be pulled up by an invisible rope, and he
stood up. Metal skin and jade bones. He had not experienced the benefits of these jade bones, but
the benefits of this metal skin had started to clearly show.
The muscles of his body had been as hard as metal in the beginning with astounding flexibility.
When he dug the foundation, every piece of muscle in his body seemed to have been reforged
again. The space between the muscles decreased, and the muscles became tighter and more
dense. These minuscule changes increased his strength by three-tenths.
He did not need to use ling power or earth energy to easily push his hand into the bluestone.
Looking at his body covered in mud, he wasnt angry and snickered. The Little Art of Cloud and
Rain instantly appeared above his head. The rain vented and in a short while, all the mud on Zuo
Mos body had been washed away.
Zuo Mo discovered that his skin seemed to now show a strange black sheen that seemed slightly
metallic.
As he marveled, Zuo Mo took his eyes away.
Yuan Jiang, who had fallen asleep as he stood guard, was awoken at this time, and opened his
blurred eyes. When he saw Zuo Mo, he instantly shook, and the drowsiness disappeared. He
seemed to jump off the ground and rapidly flew next to Zuo Mo. Boss!
Lets continue! What do we do next?
Zuo Mo looked at the deep foundation. Bravado suddenly flooded into his heart!
Come on!
Translator Ramblings: So Zuo Mo starts on the foundation. Once again, twenty zhang is about 66
meters. Poor Yuan Jiang, your subordinate is also your boss.
Ma Fan is heading down to Nan Sheng Village and Gongsun Cha is also heading out.
The more relaxed a chapter is, the more I like to translate it. If it is a tense chapter, and especially
when its a fight, I like to procrastinate. Pu Yao and Zuo Mos interactions are some of the easiest
and most enjoyable parts to translate and then I would say it would be those chapters that
describe Zuo Mos cultivating process and thinking.

Chapter Two Hundred and Fifty Two Fire Paper Method


He Xiang released a breath in the side. Twelve hours before the final deadline, and he had finally
found the enemy! As long as he found the enemy, he had the time to sort them out. The feeling of
living after near death filled his body. He couldnt help but want to exhale, but when he saw the
hint of disappointment in the eyes of Second Elder, he forced himself to keep it in.
A hint of darkness flashed across the deepest part of his eyes. He did not want to show his
weakness in front of his opponent.
Ive said it before. As long as they are in Little Mountain Jie, how can we not find them? He
pretended to be calm and said with a smile, Tell us the situation.
He looked as though he had expected all this.
Chief Elder, our people had encountered the enemy on the plains in West River. A small platoon
of sixteen people, our people were completely defeated.
West River Plains? He Xiang mused, Let Yu An take some people and make a trip. The other
side has four people that have comprehended sword essence, and a dhyana xiu that has an
abhinna. We cannot underestimate them.
Yes! The subordinate hurriedly complied.
Go quickly. Report anytime there is news. He Xiang waved his hand.
The subordinate was perceptive and left.
No wonder this group dare to be so presumptuous. They do have some ability. He Xiang
smiled as he spoke to the other elders. A little troop just disappeared like this without a sound.
Chief Elder is wise, an elder agreed. However, if they want to work against our Clear Sky
Sect, they obviously do not know their own limits, and are asking for their death.
The other elders all nodded.
As to the little troop that had all died, no one was concerned. What did it have to do with them?
The Outer Hall did not lack for people.

Below their feet were patches of clouds that spread into the horizon like a sea of clouds. Flying
above the cloud layer, the sky was perfectly blue. Without any cover, the sunlight was
abnormally poisonous. If one did not have their ling armor activated, they would be unknowingly
corroded with a thread of fire poison contained in the sunlight.
There would rarely be xiuzhe who would fly so high. The strong wind at high elevations and the
fire poison in the sunlight would increase the consumption of ling power in flight.
A troop of about three hundred people howled across the sea of clouds with astounding speed.
Boss, where are we going? the subordinate asked Gongsun Cha.
Gongsun Cha was sitting on a large green sword. There was an egg shaped ling shield around the
big sword, blocking out the sharp wind and poisonous sunlight. Inside the ling shield, it was as
warm as the spring and unusually silent. This big sword that was about one and a half zhang long
had been forged of an entire block of fourth-grade Wind Ling Wood. Peerlessly light, it was an
extremely fine flight flying sword. However, it was sumptuous to use such a big piece of Wind
Ling Wood to make a flight flying sword. This was a spoil of victory.
This flying sword was called [Green Cloud], and had become Gongsun Chas personal flying
sword. Because this flying sword could hold seven or eight people at the same, the person sitting
on the point of the flying sword was the xiuzhe who was controlling Green Cloud. With Gongsun
Chas zhuji cultivation, he basically could not move Green Cloud.

Dont you feel that we are too few in number? When Gongsun Cha asked this, he seemed very
much like a young and confused youth.
Of course, the people sitting here had become immune long ago.
Not too few. We have six divisions now.
But this city can hold ten thousand people. Gongsun Chas voice seemed slightly childlike.
Everyone sweated. It seemed Lil Miss sense of humor was increasing.
However, Gongsun Chas words made everyones hearts shake. The implication of Lil Misss
words were clear. They couldnt help but feel a thread of sympathy for the xiuzhe in the
surrounding area.
Then which place are we going to fight this time? the subordinate asked carefully.
One by one.
Everyone shook again.
Gongsun Cha moved his mouth and another xiuzhe took out a jade scroll, channeling ling power
inside. A light flashed and an illusory landscape of rivers and mountains appeared in front of
them.
There are thirteen different powers in our surroundings. The biggest has over five hundred
xiuzhe, the smallest has eighty xiuzhe. Oh, on average, each faction has about two hundred
people. Thirteen factions, how many would that be? Gongsun Cha tilted his head as he asked.
The subordinate swallowed, About two thousand and six hundred people.
The faces of the people changed slightly. In total, they had slightly more than three hundred
people. If they were to attack more than two thousand and six hundred people, the difference in
numbers was really too large.
Just two thousand. A slightly disappointed expression came onto Gongsun Chas face.
Everyones heart jumped simultaneously as they hurriedly urged.
Its more than enough, more than enough. Head, we should fight one at a time.
Yes yes! An empire isnt built in a day.

They feared that Gongsun Cha would be crazy and increase the number of targets. It was very
likely that something like that could happen.
Gongsun Cha showed a disappointed expression. Alright, even though it is slightly less, but we
shall first eat them.
Head is wise! The subordinates said together.
Gongsun Cha smiled as though he enjoyed the respect of all the people.
Head, weve taken so many people out, the safety of the camp is
We dont have to worry about that. Its enough to have two platoons standing guard. That
woman is very strong, Gongsun Cha said carelessly.
Everyone finally recalled that Boss had a female xiu of immeasurable power that followed him.
Then they recalled the three golden armor guards that never showed their faces, and instantly
stopped talking.
Oh, we will return to the camp in a month.
The faint tone made everyones hearts shake as it entered their ears.
All of the xiuzhe forcefully stood up from the body of the sword. Floating midair, they solemnly
accepted the order. Yes!

Batches of blue-gold bricks were transported next to the foundation. They piled up into little
mountains. Yuan Jiang glanced over and couldnt stop himself from swallowing. He urged
weakly, Boss, we should call some more people over.
Zuo Mo ignored him and picked up two blue gold-bricks. The thick bricks seemed to weigh
nothing in his hands.
What do I do?
Seeing the situation, Yuan Jiang could only helplessly inform, Gold soup needs to be poured
between two blue-gold bricks, and then spells are used to reinforce them. During the entire
process, you have to notice to not damage the formations already on the blue-gold bricks. The
root of the wall needs to be set up with earth element formations to connect them to the earth
veins, so they can root themselves in the earth and become hard to shake. After the city walls are
completed, bigger formations have to be drawn onto the surface of the outside walls.
Yuan Jiang had already prepared and handed Zuo Mo a jade scroll. There were all kinds of
detailed explanations in it, like the recipe for the gold soup. Gold soup was a substance that was
created by mixing all kinds of gold element materials together.
After he finished reading the entire scroll, Zuo Mo suddenly asked, Cant I just melt the two
blue-gold bricks together?
Melt them together? Yuan Jiang was dumbstruck, This how to melt?
Zuo Mo himself was not so confident about the idea he just had and decided to try. He put the
two blue-gold bricks together, and then he summoned the Golden Crow Fire. After some thought,
the spell on his hands changed, and the Golden Crow Fire seemed to be pulled in four directions
by an invisible force.
Yuan Jiangs eyes were wide as he stared at the changes in Zuo Mos Golden Crow Fire.
The Golden Crow Fire gradually spread out and became increasingly thin until it was as thin as
paper, an extremely thin golden piece of fire paper. At this point, the fire paper did not change
anymore, but slowly flew towards the two blue-gold bricks that were stacked together.
The fire paper paused in front of the blue-gold brick and then burrowed into the gap between the
two blue-gold bricks.
The fire paper quickly spread out flat between the two pieces of blue-gold bricks. A short while
later, the brick surfaces facing the gap started to melt at the same time. There were no other signs
of melting in the other parts of the brick.
Zuo Mos expression was serious. His consciousness was spread to its limits.
Seeing that it was almost enough, the fire paper suddenly flew out between the two blue-gold
bricks. The two blue-gold bricks instantly stuck together. Zuo Mo didnt dare to pause, and sent
out five spells according to the description on the jade scroll.
The lights from the five spells accurately hit the merge point between the two blue-gold bricks.
When the last spell entered the two pieces of blue-gold bricks, what appeared in front of
everyone was a single piece of blue-gold brick! It appeared to be one body, the surface as bright
and smooth as a mirror without any gap.
Yuan Jiang was so shocked he couldnt speak. It wasnt just him. All the other forging xiu that
were watching were left dumbstruck when they saw Zuo Mos skill with controlling fire.
Zuo Mo released a long breath. Good, good, he didnt embarrass himself too much.
He felt slightly proud. Pointing at the big blue-gold brick that had just been forged, he said, Go
try and see what the effect is.

Yuan Jiang was startled out of his daze and hurriedly arranged for an assessment of the new bluegold brick. After a while, he ran back with an excited expression. Boss, Boss! Strong! It really
is too strong!
Zuo Mo wanted to know the results. Hearing Yuan Jiang filled with meaningless words, he
couldnt control himself. Tell me the result!
There was still some hint of disbelief in Yuan Jiangs eyes. This is the strongest brick that this
subordinate has ever seen! Definitely the strongest! We did a comparison with the best gold soup.
Bosss fire paper method was about two times stronger than reinforcing with the gold soup. We
also found when there is too much outside force, the entire blue-gold brick would turn to powder,
but before that, it never shows a crack. The ones made with the gold soup will crack at the mortar
joints of the two blue-gold bricks if the outside force is large enough.
Hearing Yuan Jiang blab on, Zuo Mos head felt dizzy. He could only ask, So my method is
better?
Better! Much much better! Yuan Jiang was so excited he couldnt control himself. The increase
in strength that Boss method would provide to the city walls was greater than any method he
knew. The other two people were also very excited.
Zuo Mo was very smug inside, and he did not feel much excitement. However, it was not hard
for him to understand why Yuan Jiang and the others were excited. If they didnt like it, who
would study something as obscure as city construction? When a breakthrough development
happened in an area a person liked, no one would be able to keep their composure.
Oh, you guys can study the remaining. Im going to start the work.
Zuo Mo didnt plan on wasting time. Time was very expensive.
The ling power spat out of his hand and coiled around twenty blue-gold bricks like a ling snake.
He directly put them on his shoulder.
He felt his shoulders suddenly weigh down, his feet sinking into the earth.
It was really heavy!
These blue-gold bricks were all forged from large slabs of bluestone. Even though the volume
had shrunk, the weight had not lessened. If it was any other person, they would have been
pounded into paste when the twenty pieces were put on their shoulders.
Zuo Mo steadied his body and released a breath. Pulling his leg out of the mud, he started to
charge towards the foundation.
Bam bam bam!
Each time Zuo Mos step landed, the earth would shake. Everyone in the surroundings inhaled in
shock.
There were two Dhyana xiu in the two platoons who had stayed behind. Seeing this inhuman
feat, they were very embarrassed!
Which motherf***er said that Boss was a sword xiu
Translator Ramblings: WanderingGummiOfDoom pointed out that the wall might actually be
weaker this way since it turns to powder rather than cracking. Any opinions?
I find deadlines a funny thing. If there is a time limit in a story, it is usually never gone over.
Something happens so that time never runs out. Zuo Mo has always been able to deliver by the
deadline like in his match against Luo Li. In this case, Ma Fan and the others acted so that
He Xiang was able to remain alive rather than be killed by the Clear Sky Old Forefather. I know
there is no sense of urgency on Zuo Mos behalf right now but the yao army is just a jie river
away and he did do another Stars in Daytime.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Fifty Three Golden Crow Walls
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Two Hundred and Fifty Three Golden Crow Walls
The blue-gold bricks were neatly stacked together.
The flying fire paper spread out and rolled, sometimes as straight as a knife as it passed through
the gaps between the blue-gold bricks. Zuo Mos expression was serious, a faint layer of light in
his eyes.
The fire paper danced faster and left behind beautiful golden trails in the air. His ling eyes and
consciousness were stretched to their limits. No flow of ling power in the surroundings could
escape Zuo Mos perception.
His hands were like flowers blooming. Zuo Mos well-practiced finger motions were completely
used. His half-raised hands were always in the middle of countless afterimages that flickered in
and out.
Many xiuzhe couldnt help but put down what they were doing to come watch. Occasionally,
gasps would sound out from among the crowd. Everyone was intoxicated. These xiuzhe were
mostly non-combat production xiuzhe. They were one of the classes that emphasized finger
motions the most. Zuo Mos precise ling power control did not waste one drop of energy. In their
eyes, he was comparable to the most classic examples.
This was an experience to be enjoyed.
If Zuo Mo moving the blue-gold bricks previously had been the most basic and bare example of
strength, then the grand finger motions and the amazing ling power control now represented the
highest levels of control and technique.
It was the first time Zuo Mo had tried using his consciousness and Ling Eye at the same time.
After a very short amount of time, he felt the benefits. The world in his eyes had never been so
lively and dimensional in his eyes. His consciousness could detect every detail of the objects in
front of him, his ling eyes could detect every change in the ling power. He was almost able to
see the patterns behind the walls. With a glance, he would know everything in his field of
vision.
This also caused his efficiency to skyrocket, and lead to the scene occurring right now.
Yuan Jiang had lost all power of speech. What was happening before his eyes surpassed the
limits of his imagination. With a speed visible to the naked eyes, the blue-gold brick walls grew
upwards. This kind of speed was outside of his knowledge. Even more, this was all done by a
single person.
This world was too insane!
The last thread of his rationality caused him to look at the remaining blue-gold bricks. He
instantly shook and his soul came back into his body. Of the mountain of blue-gold bricks that
had been piled up before, there were not even one hundred pieces left. He thought of his role as
the supervisor and ordered people to transport blue-gold bricks.
Other people did not have Zuo Mos physical strength, and could only use talismans. Instantly,
all the talismans were put to use. Flying swords, ling hoes, jade scepters etc. all turned to a long
line. Several bricks hung below each talisman. These bricks were way too heavy.
After a few round trips, the blue-gold bricks once again piled into a mountain. Yuan Jiang
released a breath inside, and his expression relaxed.

Just as Yuan Jiangs expression eased, Ji Wei and Sun Baos expressions became nervous. The
two of them had been entranced in Boss grand performance had suddenly reacted when they saw
Yuan Jiang summon people to transport blue-gold bricks.
The two rapidly calculated how many blue-gold bricks were remaining, and their faces changed!
Based on Boss terrifying speed, the remaining blue-gold bricks would quickly be unable to keep
up with demand. The two of them were responsible for forging. If something happened here,
they could not deflect their fault.
Previously, the two of them had feared Boss more than they respected him. Now that they had
personally seen the abilities of Boss, they were full of respect to the point that they kow-towed.
The more respect they held, the more they were unwilling to drag Boss down due to their own
mistakes.
The two of them exchanged a look and did not hesitate in herding off the forging xiuzhe that
were watching.
Work work! Immediately! Anyone that dares to slow down, well cut your wages!
Those that are making blue-gold bricks, listen. The wage for each piece is increasing by fifty
percent.
The two played good and bad, one punished while the other rewarded. The xiuzhe that made
blue-gold bricks instantly ran off to work. They may have been motivated by Boss, or by the
high wages, but each person was full of motivation.
The camp was very busy.

Ma Fan is so meddlesome. Lei Peng looked at the paper crane in his hands and muttered. He
handed the paper crane to the platoon captain beside him in frustration.
After the platoon captain finished reading, he couldnt help but ask, What do we do?
Lei Peng said, frustrated, What to do? Do according to what he says! Then he muttered, This
guy had been the core before, he should know more.
The platoon captain was used to Lei Pengs impatient tone. He knew that Lei Peng did not have
malicious aims, but he was frustrated with having to take along greenhorns. He was an old
member so he understood very well. Sometimes, even he would feel frustrated, much less a
battle maniac like Lei Peng.
As the order pass down, everyones figures quickly disappeared.

In a patch of wood about two hundred li far from Lei Peng.


Can Ma Fan Darens plan work? the platoon captain asked Xie Shan uncertainly.
Xie Shan smiled and replied, He was the core before. Of all of us, he received the most
teachings from Gongsun Daren. None of us are likely to surpass him.
This is really a big plan! the platoon captain sighed.
Xie Shan smiled and said, Lets start.

At the same time, more than ten troops led by other people quietly hid in places about eight
hundred li from Nan Sheng Village. This distance was very well grasped. Usually, the range of
scouting troops were around one thousand and five hundred li. This distance was about half of
that.
The suggestion Ma Fan gave them was to carefully sneak in and kill the little troops of xiuzhe as
they were coming back.
The xiuzhe that were coming back would not have much ling power after long distance flight,
and their combat power should be at a relatively low level. In the hearts of the xiuzhe of Clear
Sky Sect outer hall, this position was a relatively safe area. They would not be so high alert and
may relax their guard.
Of course, even more importantly, they could successfully reach the position of the plan.
As long as they could do this, Ma Fans string of plans had a high probability of success.

In many peoples view, Lil Miss campaign this time was slightly unexpected, but when battle
started, they found that they were wrong. Lil Miss had done extremely detailed preparations.
This was seen from the moment the first battle started.
Wei Ran securely remembered Lil Misss order. In the first charge, they did not use all of their
power like they usually did. They only used the first charge of the three section wave killing
charge. The Third Division he lead was like a knife that had ran out of power, having cut only
halfway into the enemy ranks.
The faces of some of the other division leaders that were present all changed dramatically. The
three section wave killing charge was to be completed all together. It was to be like a heavy
blade, cutting everything in half! If it halted in the enemy ranks, and was surrounded in all
directions, and if their side had lost the momentum, then it was an extremely dangerous situation.
But Lil Miss did not even look, and continued to add large numbers of fighters towards the
flanks of the enemy.
After a while, everyone found that Wei Ran, who they thought would have lost many people,
were only lightly damaged.
Wei Rans mission was to trap sixteen xiuzhe. These sixteen xiuzhe were the strongest power in
the enemy ranks. It was not that their combat abilities were powerful, but the contribution they
made towards their troop.
These sixteen people were a rare group, seal xiu!
Because the attack had been extremely abrupt, these sixteen xizhe hadnt had the time to spread
out before Wei Ran caught them all. Seal xiu were not famed for their combat abilities, but they
were skilled in using all kinds of seal curses which could dramatically increase the combat
abilities of the xiuzhe around them.
The first people Lil Miss dealt with were them. He used Wei Ran to cut the connection between
them and the other xiuzhe. The balance of battle quickly tilted towards Lil Miss side.

The sixteen seal xiu looked with terror at the enemy that surrounded them, their hands nervously
grasping stacks of seal papers.

The mood was extremely tense. One of the seal xiu couldnt bear it, the seal paper on his hand
unconsciously lighting up. He then heard Eldest Shixiong shout, Dont attack! The seal paper
on his hands was instantly blown apart.
This group of seal xiu were led by a middle-aged person of about forty years old. Seeing his calm
expression, the other people gradually calmed down from their fear.
Once they calmed down, they detected the strangeness. The other side might have surrounded
them tightly, but did not seem to have any intentions of attacking.
The xiuzhe that had almost attacked was instantly was filled with fear. If he had actually attacked
just now, then he would really have caused a great disaster.

Without the support of the seal xiu, the other xiuzhe quickly collapsed as they faced the
extremely sharp juggernaut of the three section wave killing charge. The other troops in Gongsun
Chas command had already went back to block the retreat paths and to stop the scattered enemy
from running around.
The battle quickly ended. There was no joy on Gongsun Chas face. The strength level of the two
sides were not on the same level. If he couldnt defeat these people, then he really had suffered
through Pu Yaos abuse for nothing.
However, when his eyes turned towards the seal xiu, they lit up.
If Chun Yu Cheng was here, he would definitely be shocked to find Gongsun Chas gaze right
now was the same as Zuo Mo Shixiongs when he saw a fat sheep.
Gongsun Cha showed his trademark bashful smile.

The city walls progressed quickly. Zuo Mo had thrown himself into the work, and forgot
everything. He used the Black Procession Meditation mat to resupply ling power, and continued,
then resupply. He mechanically repeated. The changes in the fire paper gradually decreased. The
feeling of grandness slowly disappeared. What took over was accuracy and cleanness.
It was as though Zuo Mo did not know exhaustion until night. When the stars rose above his
head, he would stop, sit on the unfinished walls and meditate.
When the sun rose on the second day, he would rise on-time, and start work again.
Facing such a crazy Boss, Ji Wei and Sun Bao were almost driven to insanity. The two of them
led the other xiuzhe and used all their power to just barely manage to keep up with Zuo Mos
speed so that the construction did not stop due to the lack of blue-gold bricks.
Ten days, the city walls were finished!
The blue-gold city walls were ten zhang deep. They were not imposing, but it was still amazing
because there were no gaps to be seen on the city walls. They were as smooth as a mirror. When
every person stood on the walls, they could not help but reach to touch.
Suddenly, the cloud layer above the Sky Star Peak suddenly dissipated. A golden pillar of light
came down from the sky, and covered the just finished city walls. The city walls seemed to be a
sponge, continuously absorbing the golden light for an hour.
All the xiuzhe in Sky Star Peak were alerted to this apparition.
The golden light slowly faded until it disappeared. The cloud layer in the sky closed again. The
blue-gold walls of the city exuded a faint golden light.

The presence of the Sun Golden Crow, with the city walls as the center, rippled out towards the
surroundings like a wave!
Translator Ramblings: Thank you for all your contributions last chapter. There were some really
good ones like the wall wouldnt be one brick layer thick, and the joints will crack before the
bricks do.
Zuo Mo outpaced the forge production. Lots of people just to keep up with him alone. Gongsun
Cha has now been infected with Zuo Mos characteristics as well. I wonder if he got a double
dose of craziness, one from Zuo Mo and the other from Pu Yao? Lastly, the city walls are
complete.
Most of the time when people get an improvement, they do something like send out an attack
that pulverizes everything. For some reason, punching a rock or something hard comes to mind.
Zuo Mo is showing how resilient his new body is by building a city. Which is a more
healthy outlet overall, and it creates rather than destroys. It also makes me wonder who pays for
the damage in these stories. Do people just say bad luck, does a city have an emergency fund for
when powerful cultivators decide they wanted to have an all-out brawl, what happens when
entire worlds are being invaded? I always pity auction houses because they always seems to be
the cause for robbery. People rob others right outside the auctions/merchant houses so my first
thought is that other people will not want to live anywhere near them. It doesnt matter if there
are guards and patrols, an auction house is just not a safe place to be near.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Fifty Four The Metamorphosis of Jade
Metal Head
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Two Hundred and Fifty Four The Metamorphosis of Jade Metal Head
The completion of the city walls, and the apparition it caused motivated everyone. These were
the smallest city walls they had ever seen, not even ten zhang high. These were also the shortest
city walls they had ever seen. However, at this time, these short city walls always attracted their
gaze. The mirror-smooth blue-gold city walls faintly exuded the suns warm presence.
Whenever they raised their heads in the camp to look at the little city on the mountain peak, they
seemed to be filled with inexhaustible strength. Every morning, the sunlight would form into a
faint gold pillar visible to the naked eye and cover the little city.
In the future, they would move in living behind these kind of city walls, it would be very
warm
Everyone thought on the inside. In this chaotic and cruel Little Mountain Jie, unconsciously, this
little Golden Crow city had added a hint of warmth to their hearts. It was an innate desire for
sunlight and warmth. Without any urging required, everyone worked furiously day and night.
Zuo Mo did not know any of this. He was still constructing the city, and forgot everything else.
The completion of the city walls for the entire city construction was just the first step. The
amount of work left was enormous.

Yuan Jiang did not speak of the lack of manpower anymore. He did his best to point out the
places Boss needed to pay attention to. Every time his eyes glanced across the little Golden Crow
City walls, he couldnt help but be entranced.
This was the most beautiful and perfect city walls he had ever seen!
He had exclaimed countless times inside. What amazed him even more was Boss deep skill with
formations. Boss was the most skilled formations xiuzhe he had ever seen.
The ten zhang high city walls had a twenty zhang deep foundation. The entire city walls were
one body. In the deepest part of the foundation, there were earth element formations carved
every two steps. All of them were fourth-grade formations. [Earth Vein Root], [Granite Steel
Overgrowth], and [Fire Lotus Foundation] were all arranged in a zig-zag fashion.
Whenever Yuan Jiang thought of the thought that Boss put into picking these three formations,
he couldnt help but sigh in admiration.
[Earth Vein Root] acted like ten of thousand roots that deeply penetrated into the earth, unable to
be broken. [Granite Steel Overgrowth] was an extremely obscure formation. It could cause
granite around it to harden and would then continue to spread outwards like vines.
Yuan Jiang felt slight pity. If Clear Sky Sect did not exist, in twenty to thirty years, the entire Sky
Star Peaks granite would be hardened. At that time, it would be impenetrable.
What he felt was the cleverest was [Fire Lotus Foundation]. [Fire Lotus Foundation] was an
extremely common formation, mostly used in forging and dan-making. It could form the base of
a fire lotus. Lingdan and talismans would form on the lotus base. It was very creative to use it
here. The walls of Golden Crow City was able to absorb Golden Crow Fire. Over time, this
would be a very terrifying prospect.
These [Lotus Fire Foundations] could continue to temper the walls. Even though the effects
would not be evident, but as time passed, it would become significant. Even more, fire bore
earth. The effects of the two earth element formations would also increase.
It was a great pity!
The more Yuan Jiang looked, the more he liked it. However, when he thought of the city walls
becoming the main battlefield for Clear Sky Old Forefather, and being destroyed, he felt even
more reluctant.

Zuo Mo himself didnt feel anything. The inside of the city had been divided into districts. Places
like the camp and residential areas had been completely left alone so they could build it
themselves.
What he was building now were the formation battle watchtowers.
formation battle watchtowers were the most important battle units of each city. There would all
kinds of offensive formations on it. With the xiuzhe inside it controlling the formations, it could
attack the enemy. The formations inside the formation battle watchtowers were all powerful
offensive formations and usually needed many xiuzhe to work together.
Other than the protection offered by the city wall defenses, the formation battle watchtowers
were one of the most important combat units that determined whether the place could be held.
At the beginning, Zuo Mo didnt even think of building a big city. The only purpose of this little
city was combat. Other than the necessary living spaces, Zuo Mo decided to use all other areas to
construct the watchtowers.
Facing a jindan xiuzhe, it was not embarrassing to win through numbers.

The construction of formation battle watchtowers was not difficult, and it was not a secret. The
jade scroll that Yuan Jiang had given him had extremely detailed descriptions. Of course, he
didnt follow exactly what the scroll said, those were just mainstream knowledge.
If he wanted something good, he had to put in effort himself.
Before the formation battle watchtowers were built, Zuo Mos Jade Metal Head mo physique
unexpectedly had a breakthrough! The breakthrough was very sudden this time. There was no
warning. Even Pu Yao did not detect it, much less Zuo Mo who had been in the depths of
studying formation battle watchtowers.
The metamorphosis of a mo physique was unexpectedly terrible.
Just as he was pondering formation battle watchtowers, a cloud of bloody mist suddenly
exploded out of Zuo Mos body.
The eyes of the female xiu that was closest to him suddenly lit up with a strange purple light. Her
body did not move. The powerful bloody mist charged to two steps in front of her before it
seemed to be stopped by an invisible wall.
The empty eyes of the three Golden Armor Guards lit up. The three of them raised their swords
and blocked the charge of the bloody mist.
Yuan Jiang who was not far from Zuo Mo did not have the strength to resist. It was like he had
been hit with a heavy hammer. He felt a great force pass over, sending him flying and into
unconsciousness.
This was just a start.
Bam bam bam!
Clouds of bloody mist continuously exploded out of Zuo Mos body. Each burst contained
extremely powerful momentum. The ground under his feet had already turned into a deep hole
due to the explosions.
The golden armor on the three Golden Armor Guards rattled. They hurriedly braced their waist
and legs, the light in their eyes were at a maximum as they managed to resist the charge of the
bloody mist.
When the third wave of bloody mist exploded, the energy contained in the bloody mist reached a
terrifying level. The three Golden Armor Guards could not block it. Dong dong dong, they were
pushed to fifteen steps away before they could steady their bodies.
From beginning to now, the female xiu did not move. The exaggerated black mask and the eerie
purple pupils flashed in and out of sight in the bloody mist.
She suddenly reached out with her right hand and grabbed at the bloody mist. The bloody mist in
front of her instantly condensed, and a bean-sized blood bead appeared in her hand. After that,
both of her hands grabbed at the empty air. All of the bloody mist had been condensed into blood
beads.
Ding ding dong dong. The blood beads rang out as they fell onto the ground.
The bloody mist had been swept away and revealed Zuo Mos true body. Zuo Mos body was
covered in gore. It was as though the gore was alive as it slowly moved. It looked extremely
terrifying.
The female xiu silently looked at the bloody figure of Zuo Mo.

In Zuo Mos sea of consciousness, Pu Yao couldnt help but sigh with shock, Such a powerful
girl! He then lowered his head, and said to himself, So quickly? Is this body really this suited
to this path?
He suddenly seemed to detect something and raised his head. The black clouds around the
gravestone had disappeared.

The purple light in the eyes of the female xiu suddenly exploded.
A hint of black energy suddenly appeared in the gore wrapped around Zuo Mos body. The
threads of black energy were like strands of hair and also extremely hard to notice.
The female xiu stared for a while before the purple light in her eyes gradually dimmed.
The gore on Zuo Mos body moved restlessly for more than four hours before gradually calming
down. After four more hours, a person-high cocoon of blood appeared in the deep hole of the
ground.

The second batch. The platoon captain was very excited. Adding on the group that they had
just destroyed, they had successfully ambushed two groups of Clear Sky Sect Outer Hall xiuzhe
that had been returning. Their luck was pretty good. From the information passed on through the
paper cranes, several platoons hadnt encountered anyone at all.
Continuous battle caused their platoons xiuzhe to quickly grow. Their combat had finally shown
some hint of organization. For this, they had paid the price of three people.
Ma Fan inattentively made a sound in response. He was pondering what he may have not
considered in his previous idea.
Lil Misss intentions were very clear. Do their best to delay the enemy so that the enemy could
not find their main camp, and try to earn more time for the construction of the city. On the other
hand, they couldnt fight too fiercely, causing Clear Sky Old Forefather to come out personally.
No one could deal with that.
There were too many places that had to be measured in here.
But from the present situation, the development of the situation had not left his predictions.
Holding a piece of green grass in his mouth, he raised his head to look at the faraway sky.
The battle had just begun.

Nan Sheng Village.


Ten little troops have been killed? Ah! You group of trash! Two hundred people! That is two
hundred people! Even if it was two motherf***ing stones, there would be a sound if theyre
thrown into the water!
Under great pressure, He Xiang finally lost all restraint and bellowed.
The subordinates shivered, and the other elders remained silent. Malicious joy came into many
peoples eyes.
He Xiang sudden turned his head, and looked at the other elders. His eyes were filled with blood,
his features twisted, the tendons in his head bulging like earthworms. His voice was deep like a

lion that had been forced to deaths door. Alright, you guys are just watching! Ha, you really
think that only I would be punished if we dont do this right? None of you will be able to escape!
Dont forget Old Forefathers temper!
The faces of the other elders all changed uncontrollably.
He raised his head, and said in a voice full of scorn and disdain, Im the Chief Elder, but is
nothing to Old Forefather. You guys, which of you cannot be replaced? Dont forget, it is very
easy for the Outer Hall to hire xiuzhe. Would it be difficult to find new elders? You all should be
clear how important this is. If we cannot even accomplish the first task for the Outer Hall, ha!
Everyone saw the terror in each others eyes. Even though it was Chief Elder that was in control
of the Outer Hall right now, but if Old Forefather really investigated, none of them would escape.
What they were doing now was related to the foundation for the dominion of Clear Sky Sect in
Little Mountain Jie.
One elder stood up. Thats right. This is not the time for us to fight among ourselves. We should
cooperate, and overcome this obstacle.
I agree! another elder stood up.
Other elders continued to stand and express their agreement. Second Elders expression was
slightly ugly but he also stood up. I also agree.
Chief Elders anger instantly disappeared, and even had a smile on his face. As long as we
cooperate, we will definitely capture this group of clowns quickly!
Of the seven elders, except for him, they were all ningmai third stratum experts!

The mood of Nan Sheng Village had suddenly changed. All the people walking on the street were
ordered to return home. All flow of resources were stopped, and all people were banned from
travel. Even though the leaders of the various factions objected, but they were instantly
suppressed. They were put under house arrest.
The Clear Sky Sect Outer Hall sent down its first Ten Thousand Fire Emergency Order!
The Outer Hall xiuzhe that had been prepared to send out to other places in Little Mountain Jie
were all summoned back. The xiuzhe number in Nan Sheng Village continued to increase. The
leaders that were under house arrest felt insecure when they saw this and were wise enough to
stay in their homes.
The enormous Outer Hall gathered strength at an unprecedented efficiency!
Editor Note: In the Chinese elemental system there are five elements: metal, water, wood, fire,
and earth. Each element has affinities to each other element, either creating or destroying other
elements. Wood creates Fire, Fire creates Earth, while Wood destroys Earth. So when Yuan Jiang
says fire bears earth and would increase the fire element formations, he means that the power of
the Golden Crow fire absorbed from the sun will be used to create Earth elemental power and
strengthen the two earth formations.
Translator Ramblings: Blood and explosions for Zuo Mos body leveling up. Other people expel
and shed the impurities in their body, Zuo Mo sprays blood everywhere. Ma Fan has a plan and
so does He Xiang.

World of Cultivation Chaper Two Hundred


and Fifty Five New Sky Glass Wave

This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Two Hundred and Fifty Five New Sky Glass Wave
Zuo Mo once again broke out of the cocoon. His body seemed to have changed again.
The skin that once had a black sheen now seemed slightly transparent like black jade. There was
none of the shock that came with the first transformation. Zuo Mo examined his body with
curiosity. Thankfully, there was not much change on his face. It wasnt that he was afraid of
becoming ugly, but it was not a good feeling when the face he had recently adjusted to had
become strange once again.
He tested his strength. It was about two-tenths greater than before. Not bad, he thought inside as
he started the [Sky Wave Fist Scripture]. He wanted to see how many revolutions his arms could
tolerate this time.
Fourteen revolutions had been the limit when he had faced the Bloody Horn Serpent last time.
He started the [Sky Glass Wave] and the ling power quickly circulated through his arms.
Starting from the seventh revolution, his arms started to feel inflated. After ten revolutions, the
feeling of inflation in his arms became more evident. After twelve revolutions, the feeling of
inflation became even more pronounced in his arms. After that, with every new revolution, the
feeling of inflation should increase greatly.
When it reached twelve revolutions, Zuo Mos mind jumped. It was possible!
Even though his arms felt very inflated, but there was still leeway compared to last time. He
continued to channel ling power. He wanted to see where the limits of his new body were.
Fourteen revolutions, there was a pain caused by the feeling of the pressure.
Sixteen revolutions, Zuo Mo felt like his arms were going to explode.
Threads of light flooded out of his arms, and swam along his arms like little snakes moving
about. It was the first time Zuo Mo had seen such a thing. He knew that if he completed two
more revolutions, the Sky Glass Wave would probably undergo another change.
He weighed his options. He felt that he could still tolerate more. Bracing his heart, he continued
to channel ling power!
Seventeen revolutions, the feeling of explosion in his hands became even stronger, and a needle
like pain appeared. The light of the fist energies around his arms became even thicker, and the
rate of movement increased.
The air around him did the exact opposite, their rate of flow was decreasing continuously.
At eighteen revolutions, the lights that swam around his arms increased in speed, and showed
extremely unique whirlpool fist energies! Due to the increase in speed, the threadlike fist
energies that had been wrapped around his elbow joints quickly were pulled astray. They were
like springs that were pressed down by an invisible force. The spring disks that were now flat
quickly revolved with amazing speed at Zuo Mos fists!
Zuo Mo knew that this was his limit. The air around him had stopped flowing as though it had
turned solid at this moment.
Without a hesitation, Zuo Mo raised both his hands, and shouted, Go!
The center of the disk-shaped fist energies seemed to have been heavily struck and turned into
the start of a helix that flew out with astounding speed!
There was no sound, no howling. When the two fist energies left his fists, they seemed to have
disappeared into the air. They were so quick that Zuo Mo himself did not catch them.
As these two fists were released, the ling power and strength in Zuo Mos body seemed to have
been completely pulled out. Extremely sore, he collapsed onto his bottom on the ground. After a
while, he managed to struggle up and sway over to inspect the result of his two punches.

Twenty zhang away, two holes bored into the earth, each was more than two zhang in diameter.
They were so deep the bottoms could not be seen. Zuo Mo couldnt help but show slight joy as
he gaped. It wasnt possible to create this kind of clean and deep hole, like a knife cutting tofu,
with just raw strength.
The power of the eighteen revolutions Sky Glass Wave was definitely more than twice as
powerful as the fourteen revolutions one. Because there were not quantifiable measurements, he
could only make a general estimate on its power. Zuo Mo instantly became happy. Pu Yaos
methods were quite painful, but they were very effective.
After this metamorphosis, the strength of his body had taken another leap forward. Otherwise, it
wouldnt have stood up to support the eighteen revolutions. The technique required in the Sky
Glass Wave was not high, but starting from twelve revolutions, the demands on the body rapidly
increased with each additional revolution.
This Jade Metal Head really lived up to being a mo physique, it was full of potential! Zuo Mo
wondered inside about going to ask Pu Yao some other time to see if he could press some more
out. When he had been at Wu Kong Mountain, when he heard the mention of yaomo, he would
fear it. Now that he had experienced more, he didnt have much feeling.
What mo physique, what yao art? When it was used, where was the energy of yaomo? He didnt
feel that his personality had become evil and vicious. As he experienced more, he gradually
could see clearly. The so-called yao, mo, and xiuzhe were just different cultivation paths for
different innate talents.
Like the yao, born from flora or the essence of the world. They were born understanding the
power of the world, and naturally learned how to use their consciousness as a lever to manipulate
the power of the world. Mo were born from intelligent beasts, with strong bodies and a mo
matrix. It was no wonder they walked the path of awakening the potential of their bodies. And
xiuzhe were humans. Their bodies were not strong, not close to the world, but they were
intelligent. It was rational they would walk the path of assimilating outside forces to their
benefit.
He gradually understood the hatred between yaomo and xiuzhe as he spent this time in Little
Mountain Jie. The ling power that xiuzhe cultivated emphasized using outside objects. They
needed all kinds of resources. Jingshi required jingshi mines, ling grains, and other ling grasses
needed ling veins. Forging talismans required all kinds of materials, needed ores, and other
precious treasures of the world.
But no matter if it was ore, or ling veins, all of them needed tens of thousands of years to mature.
Even those treasures of the world usually needed several thousand years before they would
mature.
But who could wait for more than a thousand years?
Xiuzhe could only continuously expand out and find new jie. However, this meant conflict with
yaomo could not be avoided. In here, it couldnt be said who was right or wrong. No matter if it
was xiuzhe or yaomo, these were all for their existence, for development.
Zuo Mo did not have good feelings about yaomo but held no dislike. Things like wars were not
something a little character like him had to worry about. After gradually understanding this, Zuo
Mo did not have any more mental barriers about cultivating mo skills and yao arts.
Without mental barriers, his progress in cultivating was naturally quick.
Before, he had always struggled with the concept of talent. His talent with swords was really
very average. If Pu Yao did not exist, he may never have cultivated to sword essence. That was a

sword essence created through being cut up thousands of times. His talent with formations and
the five elements were more exceptional.
Now he felt that while talent was important, but many things could not be explained by talent.
Comprehension was comprehension, incomprehension was incomprehension. If one did not have
talent, they would still be strong if they could comprehend. If they had talent, and did not
comprehend, there was no use.
Talent could increase the probability of comprehension but it was not always a certainty. There
wasnt just talent, even talismans and spells could be included in this. Even if the grade was
higher, and the power was greater, but it depended on whether it was suited to oneself.
The [Sky Wave Fist Scripture] was just a third-grade fist scripture without any exceptional
qualities. For the great majority of Dhyana xiu, it was very normal in terms of power, but in Zuo
Mos hands, it was incredibly powerful. It was not that other Dhyana xiu could not understand
the profoundness of Sky Glass Wave, but that their bodies just could not tolerate the shocking
burden that came with the eighteen revolutions of ling power.
Zuo Mo comprehended many things.
The eighteen revolution Sky Glass Wave increased Zuo Mos confidence but he only had the
power for one attack. Jindan xiuzhe like the Clear Sky Old Forefather moved like lightning. It
would be extremely hard to hit them. His anticipation of the formation he was going to set up
increased.
He suddenly saw the scattered blood beads beside the feet of the female xiu and made a sound of
surprise, Where did these come from?
The female xiu did not respond.
Zuo Mo muttered inside but still collected the blood beads. The blood beads sparkled as though
each one was made from fresh blood. When held in his hands, he felt a feeling of closeness.
Facing the silent female xiu, Zuo Mo did not have any ideas. The female xiu of unknown name
and history was a mystery all over. As to whether or not she was mute, that was just ridiculous.
With the female xius deep cultivation, even if she was born with a natural deficiency, there were
countless ways to fix it.
She didnt speak, there was only one reason. She didnt want to speak.
The only person that Zuo Mo could ask was Pu Yao. He had too many questions he had
accumulated.
Pu Yao was not surprised at Zuo Mos arrival.
I know what you want to ask.
He was sitting cross-legged on the gravestone, lazily supporting his chin with his hand. The
gleaming black sleeve naturally feel down, and revealed an arm that was even paler than that of a
womans. The right bloody pupil that was not covered by his hair was slightly open.
The greatest unique quality of the Jade Metal Head is equilibrium. Even though none of it is
outstanding, but it is pretty good in every area. In this period of time, you had been practicing
with your body, ling power, and consciousness. It has matured.
Several questions came into Zuo Mos mind after Pu Yaos words. I know the relationship of
ling power and the body, the ling channels. But what relationship is there between the
consciousness and the body? The Jade Metal Head matured? What do you mean matured?
Pu Yao rolled his eyes. He had gotten used to Zuo Mo frequently asking him questions he found
extremely idiotic. How can there not be a connection? Those with strong bodies usually have
strong minds. Ling power, body, and consciousness, the three of them come from the same
source. Do the xiuzhe of present not know this?

Zuo Mos face was already as thick as city walls. He snickered, and was not angry at Pu Yaos
mockery. Then what about the level up of Jade Metal Head.
Mo physique, there was no maturity in the beginning. At the start, everyone just found that
some special bodies were very suited to practicing mo skills. Over time, everyone called them
mo physiques. After that, about tens of thousands of years, Im not too clear about mos history,
oh, dont think that xiuzhe have the longest history. The history of yaomo is much longer than the
history of xiuzhe.
Zuo Mo found that Pu Yao showed hints of going off-topic and hurriedly pulled him back, Then
why was there leveling up later?
Because of advancement, Pu Yao said then continued, Jade Metal Head is captain level, and
Star and Moon Wheel is colonel level. This is called advancement. Maturation, mo physiques are
very special kinds of bodies, but they have a common quality, they can grow. Isnt it interesting!
Having a mo physique, it does not mean that your body is stronger than other people, but that
you have more potential than other people.
I seem to understand a bit. Potential needs to be stimulated before it can turn to strength.
Pu Yao nodded, Right, thats the idea. Maturation, it means the degree that the potential of your
mo physique has been expressed. Maturation and advancement have a strong connection. Only
mo physiques of sufficient maturity can advance.
In other words, even if I can cultivate to moon soul, if my maturation is not enough, I cannot
cultivate to Star and Moon Wheel?
Right. There is much scholarship associated with the advancement of mo physiques. There are
many paths that Jade Metal Head can advance to. Star and Moon Wheel is only one of them. For
example, there is also the Mountain Fiend Root that emphasizes strength, the Clear Wind Fighter
that emphasizes lightness and agility. They had explored many kinds of weird advancement
pathways. I only know the generalities.
Then what is my maturation right now? Zuo Mo hurriedly asked the question he was most
concerned about.
Translator Ramblings:
Long thing today. First, a whole theory from WanderingGummiOfDoom . He doesnt allow me
to tell him any spoilers (unlike warlord212 who knows a lot about this) so
So as far as I can figure is she knows ZM from before he lost his memories, and her exact
identity I am unsure of.
1) She knows him, otherwise protecting and watching over him makes 0 sense. This is
assumption 1, but is supported by point 5).
2) Given 1) This means she cannot recognize him from his physical appearance (since his body
has changed), meaning she is using the 5 elemental bead to do so.
3) The power inside her is a similar to ZMs bead, except it is 1 element. Ice since they describe
her powers as being icy. This is assumption 2 and completely unsupported at this point. This only
makes makes sense if she is from his past and the beads are a technique of his clan/family/sect.
4) Given 3) based on the power inside of the mystery lady is more powerful than ZMs bead.
This means either A) her bead is more valuable than ZMs or B) ZMs is more valuable.
4A) She is his elder.
4B) She is his subordinate. ZMs bead is more valuable presumably has higher potential because
it has 5 elements, but his bead is less powerful because he lacks the appropriate cultivation
practices to strengthen it. This is assumption 3, and highly reliant on assumption 2.

5) She wanted something or had business in Little Mountain Jie, which is why she went there
after attacking the Yao. If she wanted to kill the Yao leader, she would have stayed in Sky Moon
Jie to try again. BUT! After getting to Little Mountain Jie she sticks around with ZM, without
going off to deal with her business first. Suggesting her business is ZM. This greatly supports
assumption 1.
Given 1) 4A/4B) and 5) the reasonable conclusion is the fact she knows ZM from his past, and
attacked the Yao find ZM, since the Yao army was blockading the river and her path to him, and
intends to protect him after he was abandoned by Wu Kong Sword Sect. I just cant figure out if
it is 4A) or 4B) at this point. I am leaning towards 4A since she is more powerful/doesnt bother
to talk to him, but 4B could make sense if ZMs parents/elders gave her certain instructions. This
is all based on if she knew ZM from before, but given the evidence I think it is highly probable.
And back to the regular dump of thoughts from me. First, in where Fang Xiang truly disappoints
me, Zuo Mo ends up doing environmental destruction immediately after his power-up. I guess
the only part that makes this somewhat alright is that hes pretty much the ruler of this local area
so no one will get him to pay or discipline him for seriously deep potholes.
Mo physiques are like pokemon and evolve. Zuo Mo finally lets go of his prejudice against
yaomo, hindered in no small part by how terrible Pu Yao once was, and gets to see reality a bit
more clearly. Zuo Mo has slightly grown up in the sense he can see a part of the bigger picture
and general motivations behind events. Hes gained a lot of information and managed to piece it
together to get the general history of the three races. But he still thinks the war will have nothing
to do with him, and remains blind to the fact the yao army has him as one of the objectives. This
is the first chapter that definitively said that xiuzhe were human. It really wasnt possible to
interpret the text for another meaning.
The main character isnt the best at everything, and Zuo Mo doesnt have any feelings of
jealousy about how Wei Sheng is more talented in one area. In most C-fantasy stories, the main
character is the most talented of the generation, and then moves up in power levels until the main
character is an equal to the best of a generation ten times his age. Zuo Mo did have a bit of a
mental struggle with how he did not progress in the sword as expected, and I thought how he
tried so hard to forge the five essence sword set could be a reflection of how he tried to improve
what he wasnt good at, the sword, by using it with what he was good at, the five elements and
formations. So he could say, Im a sword xiu, look, I use five sword together.

World of Cultivation Chaper Two Hundred


and Fifty Six Variable
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Two Hundred and Fifty Six Variable
You? Just first maturation. Pu Yao looked at the anticipation on Zuo Mos face, and did not
hesitate in his blows. Basically, advancement is only possible at third maturation. Little bro, its
early for you.
Hearing this, Zuo Mo couldnt help but feel disappointed. Why is advancement this difficult?
Difficult? Pu Yao smirked coldly. What difficulty is this? Good things are not so easy to get.
Thats true. Zuo Mo thought and found that it was right. He still remembered his time when he
planted ling grains. Not talking about those good items, but even for those spells to reach a
grade, at that time, he had to put in all of his energy to get.

His days had only gotten better after he had met Pu Yao. Pu Yao would occasionally do
something bad to him, but Zuo Mo never really took to heart. Without Pu Yao, he would still be
an outer sect disciple of Wu Kong Sword Sect.
His attitude towards Pu Yao and the mysterious gravestone were the same. He could accept
everyone making some transactions. To receive good things, he had to pay a price. This was
reasonable, a matter of consent. But if the other was going to force him, he wont take it.
What are these blood beads?
Nothing, just the beads made from your essential blood.
Zuo Mo instantly jumped in fright. My essential blood? What time? How come ge didnt
know? He looked at Pu Yao with slightly unfriendliness, his tone changing. Had this guy done
something again?
None of ges business! Pu Yao rolled his eyes and mimicked Zuo Mos tone. Your woman did
it.
Ges woman? Zuo Mo stilled. When did ge have a woman?
The one wearing the mask. Pu Yao undoubtedly had extreme talent in being a ruffian. As he
learned a little bit, the disrespectful attitude was born. He clearly was a high grade ruffian of high
status and identity, with some dignity and laziness. In comparison, Zuo Mo with his twisted
features, and wiry hair was like the ruffians that ran about the streets with bricks.
When did she do that? Zuo Mo furrowed his brow.
Dont be unable to recognize peoples aid. Pu Yao unconcernedly glanced and then yawned.
He lazily said, Received the benefit and still pretending to be good. Mo physiques will change
during maturation. Oh, you were quite fierce, played with essence blood explosions. The other is
very good, and help you condense them into blood beads so it wasnt a waste. However, she
really is a powerful girl!
Zuo Mos expression instantly became awkward. He had always been full of suspicion towards
this woman of unknown origins.
Whats the use of this? The practical Zuo Mo quickly pulled the topic onto the blood beads.
There are many uses. If you cultivate mo skills with blood and fiends, it is a very rare treasure.
Right now, I cant think of any, Pu Yao said irresponsibly.
Coming out of the sea of consciousness, Zuo Mo coincidentally saw the female xiu. It might
have been Pu Yaos words, but he suddenly found her much more pleasing to look at.
Thank you. He raised the blood beads, and thanked the female xiu.
He knew the female xiu definitely wouldnt respond. After showing his appreciation, he turned
and went back to the work of building the city.
Zuo Mo didnt know that just as he turned around, a purple light flashed across the eyes behind
the mask.

Gongsun Cha gazed at the changes on the battlefield. He was continuously trying out new
tactics. Any battle tactic, from seeing it, to familiarity, to understanding, the entire process
required spending a lot of effort and thought. Even more important was actual use and
experimentation.
In the war chess, Pu Yao had shown many kinds of battle tactics to Gongsun Cha. Each tactic had
its own qualities, but not every tactic was like the three section wave killing charge, being able to

be used after just trying it out. The tactics related to the mixture of people, and the structure of
the troops.
In the war chess, there was only yaomo. To say of nothing else, the combat methods of yaomo
and xiuzhe were extremely different. Just adapting the tactics over to use was not going to work.
However, after being continuously abused by all kinds of tactics, Gongsun Chas knowledge was
much broader. No one told him what should be. He could only experiment to increase how long
he could stand up under Pu Yaos hands.
Mimicking, concluding, and experimenting.
If it was a normal person, after they had a sweet taste of the three section wave killing charges
sharp blade, they would naturally worship it as the truth, the strongest weapon. However,
Gongsun Cha was continuously experimenting with different tactics. Because it was difficult to
find jade scrolls on battle formations, he had even asked Zuo Mo in hopes of finding more battle
formations.
Unconsciously, he walked onto a path that had surpassed what everyone imagined.
About twenty li from them, there were two xiuzhe roaming about, watching the changes of the
battlefield from a distance. Gongsun Cha ignored them. Each time they fought, they would
encounter scouts like these from other factions. These scouts were extremely skilled in flight.
They would only watch from afar. If they saw the situation wasnt right, they would instantly get
on a sword and fly away. There was no way of dealing with them.
So even though the scouts had been discovered, Gongsun Cha only ignored them other than
preparing the necessary defenses to stop these scouts from participating in the fight.

However, the two people that were watching were not scouts. Jiang Wei was a leader of a
faction. Previously he had not noticed Gongsun Cha. However, he had became alerted when
Gongsun Cha had plucked up several of the other factions in succession.
He wasnt unfamiliar with these factions. They had interacted before. Even though Gongsun Cha
was still a distance away from his base, but he felt unsafe. So he had followed his subordinate
and pretended to be scout to personally see this mysterious troop.
Boss, thats them. His subordinate pointed at Gongsun Chas group far away.
Jiang Wei made a sound of acknowledgement. However, his heart was beating rapidly and his
expression changed slightly. The battlefield seemed entrenched and chaotic, but to become a
leader, how could he not have some good eyes?
This mysterious group had clearly taken the lead. Right now, they were just playing with the
other side, like a cat playing with a mouse.
But after a while, he flinched with shock.
That wasnt right! It wasnt playing.
The chaotic battlefield gradually cleared up because this group started to organize themselves,
and traces of organization.
As he continued to watch, Jiang Weis face paled, while his heart continuously dropped. This
groups organization and tactics were beyond his imagination. These guys were trying new
tactics! Their chaos was not created by the enemy, but by themselves. As they familiarized
themselves with their new tactics, the battlefield quickly turned clear.

He recognized the other side of the battle, Moustache Wang. Moustache Wangs conduct was
extremely powerful, and skilled in battle. He had a group of lawless fighters under his command.
When he saw the other, he had to call the other Wang ge.
But someone as powerful as Moustache Wang was being used by the other to try out battle
tactics! He actually was not able to resist!
Watching as Moustache Wang charged left and right with his band, but appearing as though he
was sinking in the bog without a way out, a hint of sorrow came into Jiang Weis heart.
This group was too strong!
Their cooperation was very high. It wasnt how smooth or grand their tactics were. In reality, he
had seen the unfamiliarity in their cooperation at first glance . It should be a kind of tactic they
had never used before. Moustache Wang did not lack skill. He had found the enemys flaws
several times, but just when the balance was to be upset, this group would use a different kind of
battle tactic.
That was the battle tactic they frequently used and were familiar with. It was astoundingly keen.
Moustache Wangs furious counterattack would be torn to pieces in moments.
Right after, this group would also return to their unfamiliar and new battle tactic in search of
familiarizing their cooperation.
And so it repeated.
Its really terrifying! Jiang Wei muttered to himself.
The subordinate didnt understand why Leader would say it was scary. In his view, the two sides
had fought for this long before this group had secured the advantage, they were not as strong as
they were rumored to be.
Jiang Wei did not explain. He rejoiced inside that he had made a correct decision today by
coming.

A hint of a smile finally came to Gongsun Chas lips. The xiuzhe under his command finally
found rhythm with his new battle tactic. Any kind of battle tactic, no matter how well people
trained, was discounted in power unless they went through true battle. The situation on the
battlefield had tens of thousands of variations. It was completely different than normal training.
Just copying what they normally practiced was useless.
As Lil Miss smiled, the rock in the hearts of the xiuzhe beside him finally landed.
The battle quickly ended. They had captured about one hundred and fifty xiuzhe.
Seeing the dense black patch of xiuzhe beside them, he couldnt help but rub his forehead, How
many xiuzhe have we already captured?
One thousand one hundred and fifteen people, the subordinate gave a precise number.
After some thought, Gongsun Cha ordered, Transport them back. It is not safe to take them with
us for each battle. Send a division.
Zuo Mo was not here and could not put jinzhi in these captives. Due to that, he could only take
all their talismans and send people to guard them. Some of the xiuzhe had been directly taken
into the troops like those seal xiu, and three sword xiu who had comprehended sword essence,
Moustache Wang among them.
These captives were very docile.

Every two or three days, they would see Gongsun Cha and the others defeat a faction. Naturally,
everyone was docile. They looked fearfully at the remaining three hundred xiuzhe. Even though
their own numbers were three times that of Lil Miss, but no one dared to disobey.
Before this, they had never thought there would be such a terrifying army. Of course, the xiuzhe
who had seen the yao army would say the yao army were the most powerful. But even those
people had to admit that this troop was the strongest troop they had ever seen other than the yao
army.
The subordinates had long ago suggested to Lil Miss to send the captives back.
No one felt it was too few for one hundred something people to transport more than a thousand
captives.
This mission landed again on Wei Ran. Lil Miss felt that while Wei Rans individual strength
was average, but his mind was good and he was calm. This was a person worthy of nurturing.
Truthfully, Wei Ran wasnt quite willing. He was enjoying the fight. If he had to transport the
captives, wouldnt he fall behind the others? He had just gotten a taste of the new battle tactics.
However, he did not dare to disobey Lil Miss commands. He could only lead his subordinates
and dejectedly go to transport captives.

Looking at a portion of the troop transporting a dark patch of xiuzhe, Jiang Wei first stilled and
then instantly understood. He couldnt help but shake his head. In his view, if they included these
captives in the troop, it would actually cause the battle abilities of this terrifying troop to
decrease. As long as one had these three hundred people, where couldnt they go?
Maybe they had other ideas, Jiang Wei thought. Suddenly, his eyes lit up.
A daring idea came out.
Translator Ramblings: A cliffhanger happens its been a while since we had one.
The Chinese has this obsession with jade, first white mutton-fat jade early on, and then green
jade afterwards. I dont know why but fantasy worlds seem to have endless supplies of jade.
Why does all the writing and the ornamentation have to be primarily jade? Ive never saw a story
involving a jade mine. I guess jade in these worlds is very cheap and plentiful so they use it for
communication and everything else and where the jade comes from isnt of any significance.

Chapter Two Hundred and Fifty Seven One Small Step[i]
He Xiangs face was tight, but in reality, his mood was not as terrible as he displayed. The
members of the Outer Hall were continuously gathering which allowed the leaders of the factions
in Nan Sheng Village personally see the strength of the Outer Hall.
Everyone was in danger now.
Under this tense atmosphere, the secret alliance the faction leaders had brokered fell apart
without any attack. They all chose to capitulate, and He Xiang quickly got the price he wanted.
Now, he only needed to catch the group of troublemakers before he would accomplish his goals.
Looking at the xiuzhe that covered the sky above Nan Sheng Village, the cloud over He Xiangs
heart swept away. The number of xiuzhe in the Outer Hall had reached a terrifying three thousand

people. Nan Sheng Village was small to begin with. Three thousand xiuzhe flying in the air was
like a storm cloud. In his view, such a strong power could dominate all of Little Mountain Jie. If
it wasnt that Old Forefather had personally made the captivity plan, he would have already
suggested to take all of Little Mountain Jie into Clear Sky Sects pocket.
However, there wasnt much of a difference now, he thought contentedly. He had sent out large
numbers of troops to search for the traces of those people. As soon as they found one trace, they
could send out all their strength, and tear those damned people into a thousand pieces.
He believed that news would come very soon.
Just as he was thinking this, an elder landed in front of him, and said excitedly, We found the
group! Two or three hundred people, up north, about two thousand li from here. Our people have
locked onto them.
He Xiang was exhilarated, and said hatefully, As long as we can find them, then they will
definitely die. Get the scouts at the front to keep alert and dont lose them. Its our turn to
attack!
Ha ha, let them see the power of our Outer Hall, this elder also laughed.
Well destroy them! He Xiang was full of bravado. Well celebrate you when you get back!
This elder was an ally he had been pursuing.
Ha ha! Wait for my good news! This elder laughed proudly before jumping back into the air.
The xiuzhe filling the sky started to quickly gather.

Nian Lu was just as discontent as Wei Ran.


His feet stepping on a lotus flower, he flew with the wind. His snowy-white robes now seemed
grey and dusty. After that handsome and light-hearted face seemed somewhat slow-witted after
eating wind for more than ten days. The platoon captain beside him also had an expression of
dissatisfaction. This group of bum beetles, they are so annoying! We have to even talk to them
everyday, but its still those old faces, theres nothing new. But they dont have it easy either!
The last words were full of emotion.
He turned and hollered at the xiuzhe beside him, All of you, stay alert. Dont blame my flying
sword if you dont listen.
Beside him, other than his own subordinates, there were almost two hundred unfamiliar xiuzhe.
These xiuzhe all had their heads hanging down without energy. These were the xiuzhe that they
had captured when they took the time to especially sweep up two factions. The sweep had been
done together by Lei Peng, Zong Ru, and himself. Nian Lus luck had been the worst and had
lost in drawing straws, so that the most depressing job of baiting the enemy had fallen to him.
These captives seemed to have extremely well-prepared ling armor, but other than ling armor, all
other talismans and flying swords had been taken away.
Just like this, Nian Lu lead a platoon and two hundred xiuzhe as he flew openly towards the
north.
To make sure the other side didnt lose track of them, they had to maintain a moderate speed.
What was most depressing was that he could not attend the upcoming battle, he could only
continue to travel away.
The greatest tragedy of life was this. Nian Lu said with sorrow and anger, Slow down, slow
down, dont let them lose track.


At the base of a mountain about four hundred li from Nan Sheng Village was an extremely wellhidden mountain cave.
What are we waiting for? Were just guarding this place that even the birds dont shit, when can
we go and do something! Lei Peng rumbled.
Everyone ignored him. Zong Ru was sitting and meditating, Xie Shan had his eyes closed to rest.
The other platoon captain wisely did not interrupt. With so many of the old-timers here, he did
not have a turn to speak.
Ma Fan shook his head helplessly. But it was his idea. It was so troublesome. He drawled,
Soon, soon.
Lei Peng snickered and said, Little Nian Nian is probably being blown with a refreshing breeze
right now.
Light laughter came from the other people. Even Zong Ru showed a hint of mirth at the corner of
his lips.
After killing those little groups last time, during that period of extremely short chaos, they had
quietly sneaked in.
This trip had been seven days. Their luck was pretty good. They had found an extremely deep
cave. With some camouflage added, it was a very good ambush point. This place was also very
close to Nan Sheng Village, right under the enemys eyes. It was perfect for being dark under
the lamp.
Xie Shan suddenly opened his eyes. The other people instantly had wary looks. Xie Shan said
lightly, Theyve come.
All the xiuzhe instantly stopped talking. Xie Shan even extinguished the Small Light spell inside
the cave. The cave instantly became pitch black. After a while, everyone felt streams of
consciousness and strange ling power sweep across their bodies.
Fear rose in everyones hearts!
There were at least two thousand people from Nan Sheng Village that moved out this time! It
could be seen that the Outer Hall had put a lot into destroying them.
No one dared to move. All signs of life on their bodies disappeared. All breathing and heartbeats
stopped. Even the temperature of their bodies decreased. They were like a pile of rocks. Ma Fan
had taught them all a spell to conceal themselves from scouts since he was very skilled in
concealment.
To avoid attracting attention, they had not used any spell or formation to disguise the entrance of
the cave. Formations were the best for disguise, but that was only for experts. If it wasnt a
formation expert, the disguise formation set up would be eye-catching instead.
They only used rocks and foliage to conceal and lessen the traces of themselves. They had also
specially grabbed little animals like rabbits to put in the cave.
There were too many caves in this area. Ma Fan had correctly predicted the other would not
inspect the caves one by one.
Wave after wave of surveillance continued for two hours. Even Xie Shan, with the highest
cultivation, couldnt help but be shocked by the Outer Halls strength. From the consciousness
and ling power that swept across their bodies, there were more than ten ningmai third stratum
xiuzhe. He was certain that more than seven-tenths of the entire Little Mountain Jies ningmai
third stratum had sided with the Outer Hall.

One ningmai third stratum was not scary, but ten of them was definitely a great power. If he was
the commander, he definitely would arrange for the ten people to be together. Powerful xiuzhe
like this were terrifying when they were used together. Why had the xiuzhe who comprehended
sword essence like him been arranged together? He hadnt understood in the past, but after
following Lil Miss for a time, and personally experiencing it, he now understood the benefits.
However, what he admired the most right now was Ma Fans cautiousness. Under Ma Fans
persistence, they had dug into the cave to an extreme depth. Then used slabs of rock to seal the
top of the pit. These granite stones were more than ten zhang thick, and had almost tired them to
death at the time. The entire cave was now divided into two levels. Those little animals lived on
the top level.
At the time, some people had muttered that Ma Fan was making a mountain out of a molehill.
Looking at it now, these measures had saved their lives!
What he didnt know was that Ma Fan was also feeling fear. If anything had gone astray with the
measures, then they would have been sealed in. No one would have been able to escape.
Even when all the scans had disappeared, they still did not dare to move. Everyone was terrified
by what had just occurred.
After ten whole hours, they finally recovered from the false death state.
Woah, they are terrifying. At least two thousand people! Lei Peng exclaimed, his face slightly
pale.
Its three thousand, Zong Ru suddenly spoke, there is also thirteen third stratum.
Everyones faces became slightly ugly. Xie Shan looked at Zong Ru with surprise. He was
shocked at Zong Rus sensitivity.
They really find us worthwhile!
Ha ha, laozi was so frightened right now, laozis body is still somewhat soft.

Everyone discussed loudly. They were slightly afraid and shocked, but they were more excited.
The Outer Hall had found them important enough to send out this many people. In Little
Mountain Jie, there was no faction other than theirs who managed to cause such a reaction. Most
of these people were lawless fighters. Battle maniacs like Lei Peng were not rare. The more it
was like the present, the more motivated they were.
Ma Fan was not as crazy as they were. He managed to calm his heartbeat, and wiped the cold
sweat. He had been the core for so long, but it was the first time he had encountered such a risky
situation like the one just now.
When are we moving? Lei Peng rubbed his hands excitedly, his eyes shining as he looked at
Ma Fan.
Ma Fan forcibly repressed the impulse to kill the guy and rolled his eyes instead. Do you want
to die faster? They havent gone far away. If they turn back, none of us will escape.
Lei Peng realized that his question seemed like it was trouble-making, especially when he saw
the gazes looking at him like they were looking like an idiot. He rapidly gave a bright smile,
See, after being frightened by them, ans mind doesnt work properly.
Five days. After calming down, Ma Fans head turned cold and rational. We only need to wait
five more days. Even if they want to turn back then, it wouldnt be enough.
Everyone, get a good rest these five days. Otherwise, youll see the other people rampage while
you falter, Xie Shan said with a smile from the side.

Sound disappeared from the mountain cave. Everyone suppressed the excitement inside, and
meditated. They were like a group of experienced hunters making their last preparations before
closing the net.

Jiang Wei took the jade scroll his subordinate had handed over. He had sent out the xiuzhe that
had been most skilled in concealment to follow behind Wei Rans group from far away, and
successfully located this groups main base.
When he scanned the jade scroll, his body froze.
In the mirage of the jade scroll, at the top of a mountain peak was a sun city made from bluegold. The sunlight was like a keen sword cutting the sky and landing on this city. The faint
golden light emitted from the little city gave people warmth like the sunlight.
Jiang Weis heart seemed to be suddenly gripped by an invisible hand. At that instant, it stopped
beating.
After an unknown length of time, he slowly refocused. There was almost no xiuzhe in the empty
city. All the blood in his body went to his head. With a glance, he could see how weak the city
was! Even the troop that had sent the captives back had thrown the captives to the camp, and
instantly left.
An uncontrollable greed and yearning filled every hair of his body!

I have to say that mind-to-mind communication is always the fastest and cheapest
communication method in fantasy stories. Look at Pu Yao, a ball of light and then off Zuo Mo
goes! Considering how cheap information storage in scrolls and other items seem to be in
many fantasy stories where secret arts can be read and then copied without any limit, its a
miracle that a lot of the secret arts remained a secret. I dont think it is very hard. With mind-tomind communication, one person can buy the manual and then send it to his relatives who
can also use it. And then things spread. Or they can inscribe the information onto jade
scrolls/strips and then sell them for really good prices. Actually, I think that wont be a bad story,
a protagonist that makes a living by making textbooks and selling information.

and Fifty Eight Bao Yi Explaining

Chapter Two Hundred and Fifty Eight Bao Yi Explaining
Zuo Mo looked dumbly at the one thousand and one hundred xiuzhe in front of him, his face
slightly ugly.
Seeing the signs, Wei Ran exchanged a greeting with Zuo Mo before decisively turning and
leaving, disappearing in an instant.
One thousand and one hundred xiuzhe. They look very tasty, but in reality, they were a great
problem. These people were docile right now, but if they had the chance, they would not be so.
Why were the people under Gongsun Chas command so obedient? Because Zuo Mo had put
down jinzhi in their bodies.

Using an aura of domination, and causing the surroundings to swear fealty to you was just a joke.
Any person who entered an unfamiliar power, especially as a captive, how could they so easily
accept it in their hearts? Zuo Mo didnt even dare to be certain about the group that Gongsun Cha
had, if they left Little Mountain Jie, how many would be willing to stay.
Zuo Mo was too lazy to think of things like loyalty. In such turbulent times, that was nothing.
His demands were very simple, listen to orders and dont make trouble. After breaking through
Little Mountain Jie, everyone can pat their own butts and go off.
However, even listening to orders and refraining from making trouble were not simple to do.
Before, he had used jinzhi to guarantee this, but even a jindan would die from exhaustion if he
had to put jinzhi in one thousand and one hundred xiuzhe.
That method wouldnt work here.
Fortunately, all of the talismans and flying swords had been clean off this group. They definitely
wouldnt make trouble in the short term. Zuo Mo had had enough time to think of ways to
resolve the problem.
He first picked the xiuzhe that were skilled in forging from the group and sent them to Ji Wei and
Sun Bao. There were quite a few, almost three hundred people. Of course, the great majority of
them only had a rough understanding of forging. There were less than forty that were truly
skilled. To Ji Wei and Sun Bao who were tight on manpower, they took all three hundred people
and more. Even rough work needed people to do it.
Quickly, Zuo Mo found that the two were very good managers. No one made trouble, and no one
slacked off. Everyone was furiously working. This puzzled Zuo Mo.
Coincidentally, Bao Yi had come to find Zuo Mo to get more people. He was the quartermaster
and stores keeper, and didnt have the time to do everything. Seeing that there were so many
people here, he had ran over to ask for some.
Zuo Mo asked him the question that had puzzled him. He could not understand it. Ji Wei and Sun
Bao didnt have the ability to place jinzhi but those three hundred xiuzhe were obedient in their
hands.
Hearing this, Bao Yi smiled. Boss, this problem is easy. Here, I give him a wave, and he comes
to work. If he doesnt do well, then Ill fire him. Then he snickered, But its even easier for us.
We can punish anyone that doesnt listen.
Seeing Zuo Mo still filled with puzzlement, Bao Yis mind jumped at the rare chance to show his
face in front of Zuo Mo and patiently explained, Boss, dont look at just how many people they
have. Ha ha, in reality, they are helpless in front of us. First, they are afraid. Why are they afraid?
Their little lives are in our hands. If we order them to do something, they dont dare to leave it
incomplete. Not every boss is as patient as you, Boss, or as benevolent.
He didnt forget to slightly flatter Zuo Mo, and continued, First, we have to set the rules down,
what they can do and what they cant. If rebellious ones come out, we erase them. In the short
term, they wont dare to make trouble. After a while, we can pick obedient ones from them, and
give them some sweets, like a team leader or something, so they will manage for us. These
people that directly receive benefits will be directly connected to Boss aims, and definitely will
put their all in.
Zuo Mo was thoughtful.
Bao Yi smacked his lips. Actually, with how generous Boss is, the great majority arent willing
to make trouble. Those with ambition and talent chase greater stages of cultivation. They can see
clearly that they arent disadvantaged under Bosss hands. Most of the people just want a pretty
good life. We only have to guard against the few that have other aims. Hee, these people dont

have any skill, but think they are extraordinary, and dont want to follow others. They are like
shit. We shouldnt waste words with them, just chop them.
Bao Yis words enlightened Zuo Mo. He had become too used to living by himself, and had
never managed this many people. It was also his first time doing such a thing.
After Bao Yi finished picking workers, Zuo Mo called over the two platoons of xiuzhe that had
remained to guard the camp. He announced strict rules with quite a few execution without
exception. The two platoons stared at each other as they listened. Boss was very scary when he
really got serious.
Then Zuo Mo ordered the remaining seven hundred or so people to train under the two platoons.
The high quantity of training made everyones faces change. Even the two platoons that were
responsible for teaching had ashy faces.
Zuo Mos thinking was very simple. Wasnt it that he was afraid they would cause trouble? Then
he would make an extremely arduous training plan. He didnt believe there was anyone that
would have any other thoughts after they completed such a laborious training plan every day.
As expected, after furiously training every day, the only thing that the xiuzhe all did after
finishing was to collapse and sleep. The two platoons in charge were also exhausted. To
guarantee normal alertness and safety, they had to take shifts.
The only thing that did not change were the three Golden Armor Guards that were quietly
floating in the sky above the camp.
Every gaze sent towards the Golden Armor Guards were filled with fear. There were already a
few troublemakers that had been chopped in half by the Golden Armor Guards exaggeratedly
large broadswords. The ease had shocked every xiuzhe who had wavered.
Zuo Mo saw the situation was progressing well, and turned back to immerse himself in building
the city. His new body was greatly improved. He was very satisfied with the power of the Sky
Glass Wave, and full of excitement towards building the city.
In the sea of consciousness, Pu Yao was slightly dumbstruck. He had assumed that building the
city would torture Zuo Mo to the point of death, but seeing the mania on Zuo Mos face, he
suddenly realized he had underestimated Zuo Mo. Under this guys normal appearance was a
heart that was just as perverse as his.
Sky Star Peak seemed to resume its busyness, everything was on the right path.

Big Brother, where are we going? Jiang Hao asked with puzzlement. Big Brother had gathered
everyone up together, and travelled quickly and carefully, not leaving one person behind to hold
the fort.
Youll know when we get there. Jiang Wei who was innately cautious did not even tell his own
blood brother. He wanted that sun city!
Jiang Hao was slightly discontent. Big Brother, you cant even trust me?
Seeing the dissatisfaction on his little brothers face, Jiang Wei thought since they were getting
close, it didnt matter if the secret got out. After narrating what had happened before, he showed
the jade scroll to Jiang Hao.
When Jiang Hao read the jade scroll, he instantly sunk into extreme excitement. Brother, this
city is great! Its a hundred times better than our mountain camp!
Jiang Weis thoughts were more attentive. The majority of their forces have gone out. It is their
most unguarded time. If we use the chance to take down the city, even if their primary force

comes back, they cant do anything to us. That city might be small, but it definitely hard to
conquer, easy to guard and hard to attack.
How much farther? I cant wait! Jiang Hao rubbed his hands as he said.
Almost there. Jiang Wei then said, Tell everyone to be careful and conceal their figures. If we
encounter other xiuzhe, take all of them down.
Ha, no problem! Jiang Hao excitedly rushed out with the order.
After flying for a half day, they finally entered Sky Star Mountain Range. Sky Star Peak was in
their sight. Everyone sighed with amazement at the little city under the sunlight. When they
learned that their target this time was this little city, the mood instantly became excited,
everyones blood rushing.
The experienced Jiang Wei waved a hand. Set up camp. Everyone, have a good rest, well try to
take them down in one encounter.
Seeing the other people immerse themselves in meditation, Jiang Wei beckoned over Jiang Hao
and said in a low voice, Take some people with you and inspect the surroundings. There was so
many days between now and before, we dont want anything unexpected.
Jiang Hao said unconcernedly, Big Brother, you are too careful. We have five hundred people,
all of them experts. We arent afraid of them!
Jiang Weis face darkened. Dont say things like this in the future. This group is of mysterious
origins. Even if there isnt many people, but they are much stronger than us. If it wasnt that they
didnt have many people right now, I wouldnt dare to target this city. Be careful, dont lose your
life.
Jiang Hao was extremely obedient of his big brother. He muttered inside, but still complied,
running to find several xiuzhe that were skilled in concealment to go scout with him. His
personality might be rough, but he was very good at travelling stealthily. The [Hundred Ghost
Night Travel Scripture] that he cultivated was a fifth-grade scripture. It was a pity that the
version he obtained was not complete. There were many parts that were lost. But even so, it was
much stronger than normal fourth-grade scriptures.
His body shifted, and turned into a shadow. A pair of eyes that lacked any life appeared in the
shadow.
The other people also changed. Some became wild cats, others night eagles, all kinds of shapes.
Everyone cooperated well. After changing, they spread out, all of them travelling towards Sky
Star Peak.

Zuo Mo finally finished the first formation battle watchtower. This formation battle watchtower
was constructed of hundreds of formations. It was much better than normal formation battle
watchtowers. From the beginning plans, to the construction, he had completed all of it. No one
understood better than he did what he needed.
Yuan Jiang looked entranced at the lonely formation battle watchtower. The formation battle
watchtower was fifteen zhang high, a section higher than the city walls. The entire watchtower
was made up of blue-gold bricks. From a technical standpoint, the entire watchtower was just a
formation, or rather, an extremely complete miniature interlocked formation belt. Yuan Jiang
could not understand many of the parts. This little interlocked formation belt was different than
any other formation he had seen before.
Was Boss at the level he could set up and match formations?

Boss was just this old


However, after personally seeing so many exceptional qualities of Boss, he had started to become
numb.
Normal would someone normal become a boss? He could only comfort himself so.
Boss, this is a lightning formation, To show that he was not so ignorant, Yuan Jiang pretended
and said.
En, its a hard thunder formation.
Hard thunder Yuang Jiang shook, that wasnt lightning, that was hard lightning. He forced
himself to calm, Can we try it out?
I was just going to. Zuo Mo didnt raise his head, inserting jingshi in. Right now, we can only
use jingshi. In the future he didnt say the remaining. Yuan Jiang did not notice it.
Where to hit? Zuo Mo looked around after putting in the jingshi.
Yuan Jiang suddenly saw a black dot in the sky. It was an eagle. He didnt hesitate to point at the
eagle and say, There is an eagle there!
Okay! Zuo Mo also became motivated, and instantly activated the formation.
The inner walls, ceiling, and floor of the watchtower that were filled with formations quickly lit
up with a warm silver light.
Translator Ramblings: Night eagles exist in this world and are not the same as owls.
Bao Yi brings an outsider perspective and educates Zuo Mo on management. Bao Yi, Ji Wei, Sun
Bao and even Xie Shan are experienced and better at managing people as well as living within a
power structure. Zuo Mo threw the management of the captives to Gongsun Cha and so his own
management skills need to develop now that the people he delegated to are busy.
I really liked how Fang Xiang slipped in the stuff about how the forging division worked with its
wages based on unit produced since it builds up to Bao Yis explanation here.

Chapter Two Hundred and Fifty Nine Meteor Void Fire
A hard lightning bomb floated in front of Zuo Mo.
Without any visible action from him, with only a streak of silver lingering in his vision, the hard
lightning seemed to disappear into the air.
There was no earth-shaking roar, no oppressive presence. It was fast, so fast that Yuan Jiang
didnt have the time to react. When he finally caught up, he hurriedly turned his head. The sky
was empty. Nothing had been left. There was no explosion of blood and limbs, no smoke from
being burned at high temperatures. The sky was light and clear as though nothing had happened.
We got it? Yuan Jiang asked uncertainly.

Probably, Zuo Mo answered back just as uncertainly. The speed that the formation battle
watchtower had formed the hard lightning was faster than he expected. He had almost made a
fool of himself. Just as he had locked onto the target, the hard lightning had flown out.
The two people looked around for a while and made sure they couldnt find that eagle before
confirming that it really had been killed.
It seems that they will need to practice, Zuo Mo muttered.
Yuan Jiang wasnt in a position to give a review. Even though Boss said it was hard lightning,
but he had not felt the rumored strong presence of hard lightning. Maybe this was a weakened
version of hard lightning? He felt it was possible. It was a pity that it was just an eagle. If it was a
much stronger ling beast, it would be much easier to test its true power. At this moment though,
Boss formation battle watchtowers had a great advantage: speed.
In the blink of an eye, a round of attack had been sent.
Boss, how many people can use the hard lightning at the same time here? He decided to point
out problems from a technical point of view.
Ten, all of them above ningmai. On average, one hard lightning bolt will consume five jing of
ling power, Zuo Mo said. I can only reach this level now. If I can do two jing of ling power per
hard lightning bolt, that would be good.
Five jing of ling power? Yuan Jiang jumped in fright. This formation used up this much ling
power?
That was not how much jingshi it used, but the ling power of xiuzhe. It consumed a xiuzhes ling
power to activate the formation and to control the lightning.
From a professional point of view, the formation battle watchtowers that Boss had designed were
placed in the ranks of failed products. Before, he had felt that the speed of the hard lightning
formation battle watchtowers were at least an advantage. Looking at it now, it was a failure.
The cultivation of a ningmai first stratum was between ten to thirty jing. Second stratum xiuzhe
between thirty and ninety jing. One hard lightning bolt consumed five jing of ling power from a
xiuzhe. That meant a xiuzhe at the peak of ningmai first stratum could only shoot six hard
lightning bolts, and a second stratum peak xiuzhe could only shoot eighteen hard lightning bolts.
The quick attack rate of the formation battle watchtowers actually became its greatest flaw. It
would only take a blink for the six hard lightning bolts to fly out. After the ling power of the
xiuzhe was used up, the formation battle watchtower was just a watchtower.

Boss, the expenditure is too scary, Yuan Jiang decided to give a professional opinion. We can
completely use some formations with higher offensive power with such high ling power
expenditure.
This is the strongest offensive formation that I can find. Zuo Mo spread his hands.
But our people cannot keep up. Their ling power would be used up in a very short amount of
time. After that, we will lose the ability to fight. Yuan Jiang struggled to persuade Zuo Mo.
Geniuses were not all powerful, he thought inside.
Oh, that is a problem. Zuo Mo mused. His eyes suddenly lit up, and he clapped his hands,
saying, Ha, thats easy to solve. We have so many people, arent there about seven hundred and
so over there? Everyone can take turns. We only need ten to a shift.
The more Zuo Mo thought, the more excited he was. He said to himself, By that time, Ill get
them to train hard. Ten people to a team, they will take turns. We have the Black Processing
Meditation mats, its fast to recover ling power. If we stagger the time, one round will follow
another. That way, we can attack unlimited times. Thats right, our battle strategy is to win
through numbers. If one person cannot kill him, a thousand people will do it together!
Zuo Mo gritted out the last words.
Yuan Jiang gaped upon hearing this. So, so it could be like this!
When he thought back, he felt that Boss plan was plausible. Even though it was not so
honorable, but these days, werent people competing on their hooliganism? Other than shock, he
became wary. He could not offend Boss no matter what he did!
Yuan Jiang didnt know if geniuses were gangsters, but when a genius became a gangster, then
they would be a great gangster. This was his newest conclusion.

A slender and blinding silver light flashed across the sky. Jiang Hao, who was in ghost form,
suddenly froze. He instinctively felt fear from the presence of the silver light.
That was the smell of lightning
Before he could react, he suddenly raised his head. In the sky, his fellow that had shifted into an
eagle had disappeared.

The ghost figure was shocked. He was greatly shocked! Damn it! How had the enemy found
them? What terrified him even more was that the xiuzhe that had turned to the eagle seemed to
have disappeared into thin air, and did not leave anything behind.
That wasnt possible!
That was a ningmai second stratum xiuzhe! Even though he had shifted into an eagle which
prevented him from using many spells, but his real body was still ningmai second stratum! What
spell could just erase a ningmai second stratum xiuzhe without leaving a trace? None of the spells
he knew of could do such a thing.
At the same time, the other scouts that had also been moving forward also stopped.
Had they been discovered?
Everyones heart was beating furiously. For scouts, if the enemy had their defenses prepared and
they got too close, the chance they would return alive was pitifully small. The enemy clearly also
had an extremely powerful and wondrous talisman, or spell.
Their gazes turned to Jiang Hao.
The urge to retreat came up in Jiang Haos heart. He looked rough usually, but when he turned
into the ghost figure, he was cunning and treacherous. If they keep on scouting now, he would
most likely lose his life. That strange silver light definitely was his natural enemy!

Just as Jiang Hao didnt know whether to advance or retreat, Jiang Wei, located not far away, was
also alarmed by the hard lightning. Jiang Weis expression was uncertain. The power inside the
little city didnt seem to be as weak as he had imagined.
The enemy had already found them. His thoughts were the same as Jiang Hao.
He understood his plan had failed. There would be no meaning in sending out scouts now. He
hurriedly summoned back his little brother. He just had this one little brother, and he cared very
much for him.
Dao Zi, take one hundred people to see what they are made of. After some thought, he decided
to probe them first. If the situation wasnt right, they could turn and run away. Unless it was the
last moment, they wouldnt use their full power. This was his secret to surviving until now.

Alright! Dao Zis figure was large, his face in a snarl, his beady eyes flashing with a vicious
light. He was a great subordinate of Jiang Weis. He was combative and fond of killing. When he
went into a berserk rage, he never left anyone left alive. He was vicious to his enemies, and also
to himself. He was vicious and did not fear death.
Dao Zi quickly picked one hundred people, and headed towards the little city atop Sky Star Peak.
Since they had been discovered, it was not necessary to keep hidden anymore.

Zuo Mo was pondering the problem of the formation battle watchtowers and did not realize that
danger was nearing. He suddenly felt that a light was flashing, and raised his head. He saw a
strange purple light in the eyes of the female xiu.
Before he could respond.
The female xiu sudden flew up into the sky.
Zuo Mo hurriedly stood and also flew into the sky.
When he saw the one hundred people coming with murderous intent, his head rang like someone
hammered it.
Enemy attack!
Before he could respond, the female xiu had spread out her arms like a great bird and charged at
the enemy!
Zuo Mos expression changed dramatically!
Danger!
All of this happened extremely quickly, like a flash of lightning. When he managed to react, the
female xiu was only five hundred zhang from the group!

Dao Zi looked at the female xiu coming closer and snickered, Its a girl! Motherf***ers, no one
can take this one from me!
The other xiuzhe also snickered.

At such a dangerous time, Zuo Mos mind was blank. When he came back, he was already in
mid-air.
Everything in front of him slowed down. He could see the twisted smiles on the faces of these
one hundred xiuzhe, could see the light of their flying swords increase, could see her worn
sleeves flapping in the wind
Everything in front of him seemed to blur.
Those twisted and vicious faces became blurred like the mist, the killing intent behind each
blurred face was like a blood-thirsty yao beast. The blue sky seemed to have been shadowed
over. There was only that figure wrapped in torn clothing, her arms spread like a large bird filled
with resolve and will, the snow-white bare feet that reminded Zuo Mo of the most perfect
porcelain.
He looked dazedly. What was in front of him was so slow that Zuo Mo could see so clearly.
For some unknown reason, it was like a chord in his head had been plucked. Zuo Mos eyes
suddenly turned red, the desire for battle was like a rampaging wave of lava, like the flood
bursting the dam, and took over his body in an instant, burning his body with pain.
Kill! The deep howl sounded out like that of an ancient savage beast.
All the ling power in his body was channeled to the extreme, light suddenly exploding on his
naked upper body. His skin became even more transparent like black jade, so much that it was
possible to see threads of black energy that were continuously swimming under his skin.
He suddenly leaped into the air. In the blink of an eye, he had flown up one hundred zhang. His
figure abruptly flipped upside down, and his legs pushed against the empty air.
Pia!

It was clearly void of any objects, but it was as though his feet had pushed against some invisible
object and he shot off, full of force!
Zuo Mos figure changed directions and shot downwards, charging at the group of xiuzhe with all
his might.
The chaotic turbulence boomed in his ears. His speed suddenly broke past his usual limits. The
explosion completely separated him from the outside world. Every part of his body was
trembling in either fear or excitement.
Hiss hiss hiss!
In the chaotic air flowing around his body, a hint of red suddenly appeared. Fire! It was fire! Zuo
Mos consciousness was like an invisible hand stimulating these tiny fire snakes. In the blink of
an eye, the fire exploded. The chaotic air flows in the surroundings were like dry firewood.
Countless fire snakes appeared and swam restlessly in the turbulent air flowing around Zuo Mos
body.

In the air, the blinding fire light, and the deep sound of an explosion caused Dao Zi and the
others to shift their attention to the fire ball dropping from the sky.
Dao Zis expression suddenly changed, Quick, spread out!
Immediately after, everyones expressions changed!
The air around them seemed to solidify. Their bodies were tightly held by an invisible suction
force.
Meteor Void Fire! Motherf***ing
With the booms from the explosions, dragging a long and blinding tail of fire, Zuo Mo was like a
divine being smashing down with the force of thirty thousand catties!
Translator Ramblings: Mistaken assumptions everything is a coincidence. Jiang Wei
accidentally going along and seeing Gongsun Chas tactical might, then finding the city and
scouting right at the time that Zuo Mo is trying out his new battle towers. So a battle is
accidentally instigated.

Also, Zuo Mo seems to have changed color due to Jade Metal Head and the uh
black energies combining together. Black energies sounds so evil

World of Cultivation Chaper Two Hundred


and Sixty The Terrifying Female Xiu
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Two Hundred and Sixty The Terrifying Female Xiu
The xiuzhe that were at the front had already prepared their ling shields, while the ling armor on
their bodies glowing prettily with light. However, these lights which usually gave them a sense
of safety, now clearly reflected the terror on their faces.
Many people couldnt help but raise their faces.
With their extremely shaky vision, a fireball suddenly magnified and appeared in front of them in
an instant.
Boom!
Zuo Mo heavily smashed into this crowd of people.
The three people at the very front were like stone balls that had been swatted up. Before they
could even grunt, they were nailed into the soil. Under this kind of blow, no xiuzhe except those
who practiced body cultivation could survive.
The ling shields produced by the ling armor were like thin paper, torn to pieces by the knifelike
air flows.
Zuo Mo didnt feel well after the powerful impact. The flame around him instantly collapsed. At
the same time, he sprayed out a ball of bloody mist. When the bloody mist landed on the red
flames, the flames suddenly erupted.
Some xiuzhe who didnt dodge in time were swept by the exploding flames, and their expression
changed.
Void Fire! The deadly Void Fire!
Zuo Mo did not understand the power of his move, but there were a few in this group that
recognized it. Meteor Void Fire. Other than its presence which was as unstoppable as a meteor,
half of its power was based on the Void Fire.

Void Fire was an extremely special kind of flame. It was born through the turbulence of air, as
though it came from nowhere. Void Fire was extremely hard to extinguish, especially since water
elemental power was ineffective. Its other quality was it was extremely strong. The temperature
was not high, but it could corrode the minds of people.
The blood that Zuo Mo had sprayed out contained the essence of his own body. The blood
caused the flame to grow, and seven or eight xiuzhe instantly were affected. A wound in the spirit
was very painful. Several people instantly howled out.
Not having used up all his power, Zuo Mo penetrated through the ranks of this group, and
charged at the ground.
After such a fierce impact, the burning blood slowly cooled down. Zuo Mo suddenly woke up.
When he saw the surrounding situation, his scalp instantly tingled, and he felt bitter.
This was dangerous! Was he crazy?
Why had he just charged out
His expression was pale as he muttered unconsciously. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw the
quickly approaching ground and hurriedly adjusted his body. Dong! He hit the ground and was
rooted in an extremely sorry position. Once he hit the ground, he plucked up his legs and started
to run.
What had just happened was like a dream. The only thing he was clear about was that charge that
he had accidentally made was quite good, but the consumption of ling power and consciousness
was very high, both of them reaching a dangerously low level.
If he didnt run now, what was he waiting for?
The results of his body cultivation recently final showed their effects. Without the support of his
ling power, he actually ran faster on two legs faster than he could fly. Also, his grandiose Meteor
Void Fire attack that he just did had shocked everyone. No one dared to chase him.
After panting and running for a while, Zuo Mo saw that no one was chasing him and finally
stopped to catch his breath. That impact just now had also wounded him significantly. His entire
skeleton felt like it was going to fracture all over.
Why did he just charge over
It was an evil spell it must have been an evil spell

Zuo Mo furiously thought about this question. It must have been that the female xiu had cast
some evil spell on him! Otherwise, he definitely wouldnt have charged out. How could he do
something like this, charging into the maws of death?
There was a problem! There definitely was a problem!
Panting heavily, he saw no one chasing over, especially when he saw the three Golden Armor
Guards and a platoon captain coming over with other people.
Seeing that Zuo Mo was alright, the platoon leader sighed in relief. Boss, you are alright! The
other platoon is recovering ling power, and will come here soon.
Zuo Mo waved his hand, his other hand braced on his knee as he panted, Im fine, you guys go
help that reckless woman!
Yes! The platoon leader responded. Just as he raised his head, he froze on his spot. Boss

Zuo Mo found it strange hearing the platoon leader speak as though he was talking in a dream.
When he raised his head, he saw the platoon captains face filled with strangeness, dazedly
looking behind him.
He hurriedly turned over and followed the platoon captains gaze before he also froze.
In the sky, the female xiu was like a ghost that had no weight, lightly wandering around the
enemy ranks. Her speed was not fast, her motions were not sharp, and there was no light of ling
power.
But everywhere she passed, the enemy would drop like a dumpling into the pot, and then
smashing into ground meat against the dirt.
It was evil!
A coldness sudden rose in Zuo Mos heart!
That was too evil! What spell was that? What scripture?
In this little while, there was only thirty something xiuzhe left scattered in the sky.
Gulp!
Zuo Mos complexion was pale without any blood as he instinctively swallowed! The scene in
front of him had no pressure and blinding light, no keen sword essence, no booming explosions,
there was nothing.

Her feet bare, she confidently passed between the people. The vicious xiuzhe dropped in front of
her like sandbags, one by one. That pair of bare feet that Zuo Mo had sighed secretly over
countless times, at this moment were giving off a dense deathly energy.
The bone-aching coldness made Zuo Mo feel as though his bones had also froze. He was like a
statue, standing there with his mouth open. Beside him, the other xiuzhe didnt dare to breath and
terror filled their faces.
This was the strangest and most terrifying scene that Zuo Mo had ever seen since he could
remember.
Even they felt fear, so those xiuzhe that were on the receiving end, what kind of terror did they
feel?

Dao Zi, whose face had been filled with viciousness just a moment ago, seemed to have seen a
ghost, his facial muscles continuously trembling. He turned and wanted to flee, but he felt he
couldnt move, not even a finger.
Time seemed to have frozen at this moment. The xiuzhe were all stuck in the air, unable to move
like puppets.
That exquisite pair of porcelain bare feet would pass beside a person, and that person would drop
from the sky.
In the blink of an eye, in the enormous battlefield of the sky, there was no one left except the
female xiu.
A deathly silence.
The wind blew past. The female xiu silently floated in the air.

The sound of teeth chattering entered Zuo Mos ears. He turned around his face, and saw all the
xiuzhe beside him were trembling and their teeth chattering. Zuo Mo had originally been feeling
cold all over, his heart beating furiously. However, when he saw everyones state, the terror in his
heart suddenly became fainter.

Jiang Wei and Jiang Haos face were ashen, their bodies uncontrollably trembling. The xiuzhe
beside him were the same.
The female xiu suddenly turned her face, and looked towards them.
Ah! A yell filled with terror suddenly sounded in everyones ears. A xiuzhes face was twisted,
his eyes bulging out, several streams of blood coming out of his nostrils and mouth. He froze in
this position as he softly fell on the ground.
That shriek had almost caused Jiang Weis heart to stop beating. He just wanted to swear, but
when he saw the persons state his heart was even more shocked! This subordinate had followed
him for a long time, and had seen many kinds of situations. Today, he was actually scared to
death!
When he saw the other people, he knew if he ordered them to keep fighting, he would be the first
person cut down!
He glanced with terror at the strange woman that was wearing a mask and looked like a clown.
He knew that he would never forget this strange figure in his entire life.
Run! He suppressed the furious beating of his heart, and channeled the power to shout and
wake everyone up. He turned and ran first.
The other people were also frightened, their faces paling. Like birds alarmed, they turned to flee.
The female xiu did not pursue them, and only watched in silence. Under her pair of heartshocking and soul-shaking bare feet were one hundred corpses.

Zuo Mo didnt even know how he had returned to the city at the end. His mind was blank. The
shock and blow left by that last scene had been too much for him. It wasnt just him. All the
xiuzhe of the city seemed to have lost their souls. They had personally seen the female xius
strange and unpredictable fighting. No one dared to raise their heads to look at the female xiu, or
to meet her gaze.
Just like normal, the female xiu stood silently near Zuo Mo.
In the sea of consciousness, Pu Yaos face was serious in front of Zuo Mo. This was the first time
Zuo Mo had seen Pu Yao so serious.
What spell is that? Zuo Mos tone was raw.
Dont know. Pu Yao clearly had been frightened by the female xiu as well. He said in a deep
tone, I cannot think of any spell or secret method that is related.
When I inspected her body, I found a strange power inside her body. Her body is clearly almost
on the verge of collapse, its packed with old wounds, Zuo Mo thought for a moment and said,
hoping to give Pu Yao some clues.
If it is like that, it should be a kind of self-harm spell or secret method. These types of spells and
secret methods are powerful, but they shorten the lifespan, Pu Yao said seriously. You have to
be careful. Her origins are not simple.
Careful Zuo Mos face was more bitter than a bitter melon as he spread his hands, How
can I be careful?
Pu Yao didnt know what to say either. His complexion was not any better than Zuo Mo. Meeting
a person whose origins he did not know, and was not match for, made him feel defeat as one who
had once been a Sky Yao.
I wonder if we can ask her to help against Clear Sky Old Forefather? Zuo Mo suddenly said.
Shes too young. Pu Yao shook his head, Even if it is a self-harm spell, the time she has spent
on cultivation is too short. She may be strong, but not comparable to jindan. She can deal with
ningmai like chopping vegetables, but against jindan, thats a different matter.
Jindan and ningmai is not a difference in the kind of power, but the difference in essence of
power, Pu Yao continued, The difference of the essence is not something that can be overcome
with other methods.
Zuo Mo found it was right after he thought about it.

Tell me, did she use some kind of mental confusion spell? Zuo Mo suddenly asked, Why did I
just charge out? I shouldnt have! I remember there was a purple light in her eyes.
She definitely didnt use one. Im clear about that. Pu Yaos answer was very confident, but
then his voice was also filled with puzzlement, But Im puzzled too. How come you just
charged out? You are the one most scared of death.
I feel the same. Zuo Mo did not feel embarrassed and nodded his head. She didnt give me
any jingshi, why did I charge out? It is so evil!
She isnt beautiful. If she was a beauty Pu Yao pondered as he rubbed his chin.
Beauty? Zuo Mo glared, and instinctively raised his volume. If there is no jingshi, even
beauties dont work!
Then why? Pu Yao couldnt understand.
Why Zuo Mos brows furrowed, his face full of distress.
This question was so strange, so confusing. If he couldnt resolve it, he wouldnt feel safe. If he
went out like this again without knowing why, he might lose his little life.

Just as Zuo Mo was worried about this, inside a little quiet mountain cave not far away from Nan
Sheng Village.
Ma Fan and Xie Shan opened their eyes at the same time.
Translator Ramblings: Zuo Mo and Pu Yao find he is acting out of character. Beauty doesnt
work on Zuo Mo, only money.

and Sixty One Ambush!
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiofDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Two Hundred and Sixty One Ambush!

The cave was so dark that they couldnt see their own fingers. There was only a burst of sound as
they moved out. They were doing their final inspections and preparations. It was abnormally
silent as no one spoke.
After a while, the preparations were finished, and killing intent silently spreading through as the
mountain cave fell back into silence.
Depart, Ma Fan spat out the word shortly.
The procession swam out.
Exiting the cave, the fresh air rushed onto their faces. Everyone couldnt help but show
intoxicated expressions but they quickly recovered their calmness. No one spoke. Even Lei Peng
who usually chatted on was abnormally silent at this time.
Everyone simultaneously flew into the air. After fighting so many hard battles together, the
cooperation between the troops had matured.
More than three hundred people were floating in the air. The scattered troops exuded killing
intent like a bow that was slowly being drawn.
They didnt find any scouts in the sky. Ma Fan and Xie Shan looked at each other and saw the
joy in the others eyes. After resting for five days, everyone was full of energy and ling power.
The desire for battle that they had suppressed for so long was like a tiger breaking out of its cage
and was unable to be stopped.
Our target: Nan Sheng Village! Ma Fan crisply gave the order and moved first.
The entire troop simultaneously moved to action from silence.
There was no hesitation, no disguise or trying to conserve energy. The flight speed of the troop
was pushed to their limits as they headed straight towards Nan Sheng Village! The scouts they
encountered along the way stared with shock at this unfamiliar troop that had appeared out of
nowhere.
Ma Fans procession did not tangle with the scouts at all, brimming with killing intent as they
flashed by the scouts.
The sound of wind howling in their ears, the wind blew on their faces like knifes, and the scenery
that flashed quickly under their feet caused the killing intent of these people to increase! In their
eyes, Nan Sheng Village was a weak beautiful woman that was half naked and could not resist at
all.
Their lives were content after having such an experience.

As Nan Sheng Village appeared in their vision, everyones battle intent rose to the peak!
Even a person as indifferent as Ma Fan felt as though his blood was ignited. Raising his flying
sword high, he angrily shouted, Kill!
Kill!
Everyone raised their swords and sabers, booming in their reply that shook the landscape!
The troop that appeared to be one being suddenly dismembered itself in the air and divided into
fourteen groups. Like fourteen snakes, they revealed their sharp fangs and leapt down at Nan
Sheng Village!
Ma Fan and Xie Shan each led a platoon as they charged at the very front. The two did not make
any adjustments or detours, their bodies weighing down as they charged side by side!
Two ruler straight air ripples drew through the air. The two troops were like arrows that left the
bow as they shot towards the newly rebuilt village gates. The brand new village gates were like
fragile cardboard, instantly torn to countless pieces that scattered in all directions.
The two troops were not hampered in their speed, quickly passing through the ruler-straight
streets of Nan Sheng Village!
The sword energies criss-crossed!
The high speed dive greatly increased the power of the sword energies. The keen sword energies
were even more unstoppable at this time. The buildings on the two sides of the main street were
ground into dust. The xiuzhe that jumped out all paled as they panicked. Facing such ferocious
and insane sword essences, many xiuzhes awareness were stolen, and they lost their urge to
fight!
Pew pew pew!
They were a destructive force, everywhere they passed innumerable bursts of blood rose. Amidst
the loud roaring, the wails were not able to be heard.
Boom!
Ma Fan encountered the first resistance!
A xiuzhe gave a muffled grunt but took advantage of the sword energys power to bounce in
another direction! Ma Fan was slightly startled. This was an expert!

Even he wasnt certain if he could escape under a charge like this own. This person should be a
third stratum xiuzhe. However, he ignored the other. One or two xiuzhe would not dare to resist
against a charge constructed like so.
Even more, their morale and energy were at the best state right now!
The fourteen platoons were like fourteen domineering and sharp sword energies flashing by in
the blink of an eye. Nan Sheng Village collapsed into pieces!

Elder! Run! A pale guard pulled He Xiang and quickly burrowed into the ground. There was a
transportation formation in the secret room underground. Just as they burrowed into the
underground room, the building on the surface broke down.
The light flashed on the transportation formations and no one was left in the room.

There was no need to communicate. Everyone was high on killing.


Ma Fans procession was extremely smart. They did not have targets, they just charged. They did
not pursue the xiuzhe that escaped the first charge, they focused on furiously damaging Nan
Sheng Village.
In a short amount of time, Nan Sheng Village turned into ruins.
They themselves were not wounded at all. Those who were leading were all those that
comprehended sword essence. All the xiuzhe, when they faced this many attacks all lost their
courage and escaped as far as they could!
After charging a few times, everyone had to stop.
Theres no one alive, Xie Shan said with helplessness. He had been in a rhythm, and couldnt
help but complain inside that Nan Sheng Village really didnt have enough to kill. However, he
also knew that if Nan Sheng Village wasnt so weak, he wouldnt have come no matter what.

Ma Fan made a sound of acknowledgement. Everyone, rest. Lets see if there is anything we
can take.
Ha, an likes doing this! Lei Peng grinned as he said.
However, everyones faces were ugly as they quickly gathered together again.
Which mother***er told an the Outer Hall was rich? Lei Pengs face was as black as the
bottom of the pot as he angrily swore, An has never seen a place as poor as this! Its clean! Its
so mother***ing clean! Unprofitable, so unprofitable!
The faces of the other people were not much better. They had searched all of Nan Sheng Village.
Other than some still usable talismans and other things they could find on the bodies of the
xiuzhe they had killed, they actually hadnt found anything else of value.
This was Nan Sheng Village, the main camp of the Outer Hall, how could it be so poor?
Just at this moment, a subordinate flew over. Daren, Daren! Theres a camp nearby in the
west!
Everyone that hadnt found everything suddenly lit up. Was the storeroom over there?
They did not hesitate to fly towards the camp. As they landed, they were full of anticipation.
When they saw the entire camp filled with people who had fearful expressions on their faces, and
had cultivations just in lianqi, their expressions became extremely ugly again.
Even Ma Fan who had personally made the plan this time didnt know whether to laugh or cry.
Xiu slaves. This entire camp was all xiu slaves! Looking out, there probably were thousands of
them. All of these xiu slaves had lianqi cultivation and were not of great use. The xiuzhe that had
been guarding the camp had escaped a long time ago.
Ma Fan and the others had thought incorrectly. Even though He Xiang and the factions had been
discussing business, but they hadnt transported any merchandise over. What they discussed were
large orders, and transactions that would be completed in intervals. As a result, other than these
xiu slaves, Nan Sheng Village really didnt have anything else.
Both Ma Fan and Xie Shan were very unfamiliar with doing business, so they couldnt ever have
predicted the proceedings. They had rationally assumed that the stores of Nan Sheng Village
were bursting with mountains of resources.
It had to be said that the merit rewards in the camp were also connected to their service and the
spoils that they had contributed each time. They looked down on what they could hand over, that

could be used to trade for good things from Boss. Boss had a lot of good things in his possession.
They had been envious for a long time.
Who could have thought that their plan would fail?
Everyones mood suddenly dropped to the bottom after having just achieving a victory.
How about we take these xiu slaves? someone weakly suggested.
What do we need xiu slaves for? Also, how can we transport so many people? someone
objected.
Theres slave transportation boats here. Their speed isnt slow and its convenient for
transporting people, another person quickly suggested.
If we take a few boats of xiu slaves back, and also lianqi level xiu slaves, wouldnt we be
laughed at when we get back?
But we cant leave them to benefit the Outer Hall. Then should we kill all of them? I wont do
it. I cant do something like massacring xiu slaves.
Many xiuzhe nodded their heads in agreement with those words. They were all xiuzhe who had
experienced many battles. All of them had blood on their hands. They felt it was normal to fight
to the death. However, everyone still felt it was objectionable to massacre xiu slaves that were
not able to put up any resistance.
Of course, that cant leave them to benefit the Outer Hall struck their hearts even more. To say
nothing of having gained nothing, no one was willing to let the Outer Hall have the slaves.
After such an attack, the two sides definitely had no room to negotiate. The people of the Outer
Hall would hate them to their bones.
Take them, all of them! Ma Fan gritted his teeth, Who cares if they are useful or not? Wait
until we return first.
The xiu slaves in the camp were herded onto the xiu slave boats. Everyone also stepped onto the
slave transporting boats.
The slave transporting boats were jingshi talismans. They were extremely large, about fifty
zhang long and shaped like a turtle with no sails. They could hold more than a thousand xiu
slaves. Xiu slaves were not rare. They were mostly the natives of newly discovered jie. Some of
the natives were very primitive, others had already stepped upon the path to cultivation.
However, they were powerless against those great xiuzhe sects and had all became xiu slaves.

Many sects were enthusiastic about discovering new jie. Jingshi and ores were things they
needed desperately. If they could become the jie master, they would become the literal emperor
of that place. If they did not like doing so, they could sell the new jie they possessed to other
sects and receive large amounts of resources.
Searching for jie was a high risk and high return profession.
After the natives were captured, the sect would pass some basic scriptures to them. Xiu slaves
that entered lianqi could be bought and sold in the market. This kind of xiu slaves could do heavy
labor like mining. Those xiu slaves who had exceptional talents would be marked with high
prices to be sold to other sects to be slave soldiers.
Slave soldiers would be taught more profound scriptures but, without exception, have jinzhi put
into them so that they absolutely would not dare to refuse the orders of the sect. Those sects who
had long histories had even longer histories of bringing up slave soldiers. They would even have
special slave soldier troops.
Slave transporting boats were specialized slave transporting talismans. They were extremely
large and could contain large amounts of xiu slaves. The body of the boats were also extremely
hard because they needed to travel between jie and pass through the turbulence of the Void. Due
to that, slave transporting boats were never below fifth-grade.
In terms of spoils of victory this time, their biggest one was these five slave transporting boats.
The Outer Hall had transported five boats of xiu slaves. They had already sold four boatloads of
slaves so there was one boatload of xiu slaves left. Naturally, Ma Fan and the others wouldnt
leave the other four boats behind. Luckily, the boats could be shrunk when they were not in use.
The miniaturized slave transporting boats were about three chi large, and was very exquisite.
Ma Fan and the others found it extremely puzzling that the slaves hadnt run away on the ships.
What they didnt know was that the camp was very close to Nan Sheng Village so the Outer Hall
didnt worry at all that the xiu slaves would dare to run. The camp was usually guarded very
loosely. The people who were supposed to be guarding the slaves today had coincidentally gone
to Nan Sheng Village to have fun, and had not escaped the calamity.
It was the first time many of the people had stepped onto a slave transporting boat. All of them
were very curious and looked around. Some of the people who had experience on the boats
moved of their own initiative to steer the big boat.
The slave transporting boat slowly floated into the sky. Many people sighed with amazement at
the fifty zhang boat.
Everyone snickered and steered the ship into the distance with spirit.

Translator Ramblings: Ma Fan and the others pull off their plan successfully. More background
on the bigger world.
For a person who asked about the meaning of Zuo Mos name. It is written as . The mo is
not the same one as the mo in yaomo. Zuo is Left, unorthodox or East. It is not that rare but Mo
can actually be a surname as well. By itself, mo can mean nothing, do not, or negative.
Also, it is a modern form of a character which means vast (as in desert), cool and indifferent.
So there are many meanings but the simplest one is nothing. Zuo Mo has a surname of East or
Left, and his actual name is nothing. I actually prefer it as a form of the more complex character
so it means vast instead. So if we twist and do not use the common definitions, we can make it an
Eastern Vastness.

Chapter Two Hundred and Sixty Two Unprofitable Business
On the mountaintop, He Xiang looked at the ruined Nan Sheng Village, paused for a moment,
and then broke down sobbing.

Zuo Mo looked with slight fear at the female xiu nearby. She seemed to have resumed her past
state of motionlessness. After yesterdays battle, the female xiu was much more sinister from
every angle in his eyes.
This made him slightly insecure.
He would treasure his life and stay far from female xiu. Especially strong females that knew evil
spells.
He had discussed with Pu Yao for a while yesterday and hadnt concluded anything. He still
needed to work so after resting for a night, so he continued to build formation battle
watchtowers.
After such a battle, the captives in the camp were as obedient as they could be. However, the
issue that arose was that no one dared to go within three zhang of Zuo Mo.
Zuo Mo originally had a question to ask Yuan Jiang. But when he walked two steps towards the
other, he saw Yuan Jiangs face paled and his legs were trembling. Zuo Mo suddenly
remembered that some of the enemies had been scared to death by the strong girl, and his steps
instantly stopped. Yuan Jiang was a rare kind of genius. If he was scared to death, it would be so
unprofitable. He could only stop moving.
He thought of the strong girl that wouldnt leave him alone. Wasnt he now the plague that no
one would approach?
Zuo Mos mood immediately became terrible. He waved his hand for Yuan Jiang to leave.
Watching as Yuan Jiang ran away faster than a rabbit as though he was pardoned from death, his
mood became increasingly terrible. However, when he recalled Pu Yaos dark expression, and
undisguised rage, his mood instantly became better.

As expected, happiness was always built upon other peoples pain. Zuo Mo snickered and went
back to building the city.

Just as Zuo Mo had seen, Pu Yaos mood was extremely terrible. He felt great failure at the
appearance of the female xiu. He didnt know her history, nor the scripture she used, didnt know
how her power really was, didnt know anything.
Yet he also had no solution. If this was still the time when his strength had not been damaged, if
he was unhappy, he could just pinch and make the person explode. But now his soul was
extremely damaged. He had to act carefully and could only rely on Zuo Mo. Zuo Mo was the
place he had put his soul in, and was now under threat from the female xiu. How could Pu Yao
feel safe like this?
Also, he could not understand the female xiu. This point caused the insecurity inside to grow. If
something occurred, he could do nothing. His strength had reached the lowest point in his life.
The female xius strength wasnt just ridiculously strong, but extremely strange.
It seems that we need to temporarily cooperate, Pu Yao gritted out to the gravestone. This
woman is too dangerous!
The gravestone didnt make a sound.
Pu Yao smirked coldly. Arent you afraid that something will happen to him? Other than him,
do you have any other choice?
The gravestone suddenly became as smooth and clear as a mirror, a figure blurrily appearing.
Pu Ya smiled.

After the first formation battle watchtower, Zuo Mos construction speed increased dramatically.
This was due to him acclimating to the new changes of his body. Zuo Mo gave the move he had
randomly created that day the name of Diving From Heaven. Accidentally performing Diving
From Heaven had made him realize many aspects of his new body.
The most evident was the consciousness. His consciousness had not developed very much over
time as though it was stuck at a certain barrier. In the sky that day, when he had accidentally
stirred the flames in the turbulent air, he had comprehended and instantly broke through in that
moment.
The improvement in his consciousness was enormous. This also caused his speed in building
formation battle watchtowers to dramatically increase.
The most difficult part of the formation battle watchtower was carving the formation. After his
consciousness improved, it became easier to carve formations. Adding on that he had the
experience of making one tower, his construction speed made people gape. Yuan Jiang who was
watching from a distance increasingly felt that Boss was a monster.
One female and one male monster.
The demand of resources suddenly increased. Ji Wei and Sun Bao instantly were so busy they
were dizzy.
Zuo Mo furiously built at a rate of one formation battle watchtower every two days. Tower after
tower rose up. Zuo Mo used almost all of the empty ground to build formation battle
watchtowers.

Zuo Mo had a strong feeling that the potential of his body was slowly being uncovered.
All kinds of heavy labor would squeeze out every bit of strength in his body; controlling the fire
paper would consume every drop of his ling power; carving formations exhausted his spiritual
power.
He suddenly felt some anticipation. When this city was finished, what would he become?
The anticipation and yearning of the xiuzhe in the camp increased every day. Such a strong city,
adding such a dense patch of formation battle watchtowers, they thought that no one could
destroy this.
Just as Zuo Mo was happily busy, Ma Fan and the others arrived at the camp with the enormous
slave transporting boats.
Looking at the black batch of xiu slaves, Zuo Mo was at a complete loss for words. The one
thousand and more captives that Gongsun Cha had sent back had already gave him a headache.
Just after he had managed to settle them down, Ma Fan and the others had brought to him one
thousand and more of xiu slaves, and just lianqi xiu slaves
Zuo Mo was exceptionally angry, pointing at the xiu slaves in front of him and asking
expressionlessly, What do I do with them?
Ma Fan, Xie Shan, and the others were very careful. They also felt that their spoils this time were
somewhat absurd. Xie Shan piled a smile on his face. Xiu slaves can be used to mine.
Mining? I dont believe they can do as well as Lil Pagoda, Zuo Mo said with a black face. Lil
Pagoda and Zuo Mo were connected in mind. Hearing Zuo Mo praise it, it whooshed out of
somewhere and smugly twisted its slightly chubby body. However, when it saw Zuo Mos pot
black face, its figure froze and then it fled.
Many incidents had told him when his daddy wasnt in a good mood, nothing good would come
out of appearing in front of him.
Ma Fan carefully gave a smile as he said, Boss, you dont know how poor the Outer Hall is, so
poor that they only have xiu slaves. We didnt have any solution. If we came back with empty
hands, that doesnt fit in with what you usually teach us.
Yes, yes! Lei Peng hurriedly agreed as he furiously nodded his head.
Zuo Mo smiled coldly. Not bad, not bad! You guys really remember my words well.
Of course! Lei Peng beat loudly on his hairy chest. Xie Shan and Ma Fan exchanged a look
and obediently close their mouths. The two of them looked with sympathy at Lei Peng.
Then you can support them. Zuo Mo glanced at Lei Peng. You forgot the other phrase I said.
We dont do unprofitable business. Oh, I will take it from your rewards.
Lei Peng gave a sky-shaking howl and grabbed onto Zuo Mos leg. Boss! I was wrong! I really
was wrong!
The anger in Zuo Mos heart erupted as he kicked Lei Peng out twenty zhang away and swore,
You also know you are wrong! Ha! Do you know how much jingshi you people spend every
day? Five pieces! Seven hundred people, three thousand and five hundred pieces of third grade
jingshi every day! Do you really think ge is a tycoon? Ge is so poor right now ge almost cant
eat!
Everyone was scared by the acrimony in Zuo Mos words that they were shaking. They found he
was right as they thought about it. They would consume large amounts of jingshi when they
cultivated every day. All of the expenses were provided by Boss. They had never thought about it
before. Now that Boss calculated it, they jumped in fright. Many people suddenly felt guilty. As
long as it was jingshi for cultivation, Boss was always open and had never shorted them.

Ha! Now you guys have taken back this many xiu slaves, you just want ge to go bankrupt! Zuo
Mos anger had not eased. Nothing could infuriate him more than going bankrupt!
Boss, well go steal jingshi for you! Lei Peng rolled and climbed over to express his
determination.
Right, Boss, we cant let you lose!
Well rob them blind!
The crowd of people instantly started howling. Their killing intent scared the one thousand xiu
slaves into paling.
Then what to do with the xiu slaves? Sell them? Ma Fan carefully asked.
Sell to whom? The anger in Zuo Mos heart had decreased greatly as he snorted coldly,
Wouldnt that be telling other people what you guys did Nan Sheng Village?
Everyone stared at each other, and instantly found it was a problem.
Should we kill them? Xie Shan hesitantly asked. The expressions of many of the surrounding
people were not natural.
Once the words came out, the xiu slaves that were nearest instantly paled and knelt down with a
bang, furiously kowtowing and begging, Daren! We can work! Were willing to do any work!
Daren, we only ask for something to eat
Get up! Get Up! Zuo Mo instantly had a headache. He had never seen anything like this
before.
Those xiu slaves didnt dare to get up, all of them kneeling down in a wave as they furiously
kow-towed, Daren
The already impatient Zuo Mo suddenly raged, All of you, shut up and get the motherf***ing
up! Ill kill anyone who kneels!
These words were very effective at silencing everyone.
Zuo Mo didnt speak another word, turning and leaving.
Ma Fan and the others that remained behind looked at each other with frowns on their faces.
Those people who had suggested to take the xiu slaves with them were full of regret but at this
time, no one was in the mood to talk.

Zuo Mo found a formation battle watchtower in a dejected mood, and laid down. He might have
many people under his command, but in reality, he still was a youth who hadnt seen much.
Wu Kong Sword Sect also had xiu slaves. He had some sympathy for xiu slaves. They were a
group of pitiful people.
But life was not easy. His sympathy wasnt going to be used on xiu slaves he didnt know or
related to. This group of xiu slaves were a great burden, but he couldnt do something like
massacre all the xiu slaves.
Usually, he was used to facing these things from an objective perspective. Who could have
thought that something like this would one day occur to him?
Little Mountain Jie was full of danger. Their goal was to quickly leave. Where did he have the
energy to take care of this group of helpless xiu slaves? What Zuo Mo needed right now was
xiuzhe with offensive power, and not xiu slaves that could not fight.
These xiu slaves also needed to consume ling grains or jingshi. Even though it wouldnt be a
huge amount, but due to the large numbers, it wouldnt be a small amount. The already heavy
burden would grow bigger.

Why had he encountered such a terrible matter?


Zuo Mo laid down with anger and no strength. Looking at the exquisite formations on the
ceiling, he fell into a daze.
Suddenly, Pu Yaos voice suddenly sounded in his mind, I have a solution.
Translator Ramblings: Poor Man Fan and Xie Shan. They sincerely want to be good and useful,
and they try so hard. Now theyve failed twice in a row.
Zuo Mo finally shows some of the pressure he is under. The jingshi has to come from
somewhere, and people in Little Mountain Jie are not that rich. The stuff they get from
conquering other people are not enough, especially since they have to pay the forgers for the city
building materials and also Gongsun Chas army who probably needs more ling power as they
expend it in fighting.
To continue on names, lets talk about Wei Sheng. It is written as . Wei is a very old
surname, part of the Hundred Names. It also means tanned leather. Sheng has multiple means.
The first is victory or to win. It is also surpass, superb and many other synonyms along
those lines. Its a pretty simple name. Though nothing is as simple as Pu, which is just a rush or a
vine, and one of the words in the Chinese name of dandelion. Plant based name for a species that
came from plants very easy to create names this way.

Chapter Two Hundred and Sixty Three Zuo Mos Determination
Hearing Pu Yaos words, Zuo Mos mind became alert. He pretend to accidentally glance at the
female xiu before secretly entering the sea of consciousness.
What solution? Zuo Mo asked straightforwardly. However, when he saw Pu Yao, he stilled. Pu
Yao wasnt sitting on the gravestone like he usually did but sitting in front of it.
Werent these two at odds?
Suspicion flashed across Zuo Mos heart, but his attention was quickly attracted by Pu Yaos
words.
I know what you are worried about. Pu Yaos thin lips curved in an enchanting smile.
Zuo Mo was slightly distracted by a nonsensical question in his mind. Why was everyone around
him so evil and feminine? Even Gongsun Cha seemed to be progressing towards abnormal now.
The strong girl that had appeared was also very evil.
Pu Yao seemed very confident. It is a pity to waste jingshi on their body.
Zuo Mo rolled his eyes upon hearing this. Just say the solution, dont waste words.

Hee hee. Pu yao wasnt moved, his bloody pupil narrowing slightly. Why dont you consider
making them cultivate mo?
Cultivate mo? Zuo Mo instantly froze.
Exactly, cultivate mo, Pu Yao smiled. The ling energy of Little Mountain Jie is corroded, but
that doesnt affect mo cultivation. This group of xiu slaves have just entered lianqi, and their
cultivation is rough. It would not be difficult for them to switch to mo cultivation. Also,
cultivating mo does not require ling energy, and you do not need to use up jingshi.
Zuo Mos interest was stirred by Pu Yaos suggestion. He asked with curiosity, How to cultivate
mo?
There are mo skills, Pu Yao said in a matter of fact tone.
Hearing this, Zuo Mo was furious. He jumped off the ground, pointing at Pu Yaos nose and
swearing, Ha, you do have mo skills! What did you say in the past to ge? You said you didnt
have mo skills, making ge practice [Sky Wave Fist Scripture]! Now you run out and say you
have mo skills, you were fooling ge!
Pu Yao was speechless.
The matter of cultivating mo was quickly finalized. Pu Yao took out a set of mo skill called
[Hardship Guard].
The previous version of [Hardship Guard] was a mo skill called [Hardship Abyss]. It was first
created by a heart-addicted monkey. He was born very weak and untalented. He could not
cultivate the [Heart Addiction] mo skill of his clan. After many troubles, he personally created
[Hardship Abyss], and in the end, cultivated to the rank of mo general. Later, this mo skill landed
in the hands of a king. He changed the [Hardship Abyss] and bestowed it to one of his personal
guards. This mo skill therefore changed its name to [Hardship Guard].
Pu Yao proudly introduced.
The greatest specialty of this mo skill is that it is suitable for mo that do not have outstanding
talents. Oh, this group of xiu slaves is very well suited. Hmph, hmph, in any mo jie, this mo skill
is high level stuff. It can sell for a good price. These xiu slaves really picked up a bargain.
After Zuo Mo finished reading [Hardship Guard], he jumped in fright. Unless one had great
endurance they couldnt cultivate this mo skill, much less to a high level. Mo skills were based
on hard work and persistence. The person that made this mo skill really was perverse!
He had originally been thinking if he could cultivate it. After reading it, Zuo Mo decided to give
up. This wasnt something anyone could cultivate.

Pu Yao understood Zuo Mos misgiving.


Normal people arent suited to cultivate this, but these xiu slaves have encountered many
obstacles and hardships in their life so they are actually very suited to this mo skill. In any case,
you just dont want them to use jingshi right now.
Zuo Mo agreed with Pu Yao. In any case, he wasnt hoping that these xiu slaves would
accomplish anything.
The xiu slaves were reorganized into a camp called the Guard Camp. Zuo Mo counted one
thousand people. He passed down the first chapter of [Hardship Guard] and picked a few xiuzhe
to supervise them before going back to his city construction work.

After a few days when Gongsun Cha returned with eight hundred captives, Zuo Mo finally
released a breath. The two exchanged a few words before they attended to their own matters. Zuo
Mo had to build the city, Gongsun Cha had to organize the captives and make new groups, and
consolidate what he learned etc.
The preliminary structure of the Golden Crow City caused everyone, including the captives, to
feel excitement and anticipation.
After continuous construction, the formation battle watchtowers of Golden Crow City reached
thirty six in number. They were tightly packed together, pointing towards the sky like sharp
swords. Looking at these formation battle watchtowers that rose above the city walls, everyone
was filled with the feeling of safety.
The completion of thirty six formation battle watchtowers meant that the xiuzhe of the camp
could start to move in.
Wei Cheng Bin followed Master Ji Wei into Golden Crow City, his expression excited. As he
stepped into the city, a feeling of warmth surrounded him, feeling like he was soaking in the sun.
The people in the surroundings sighed in amazement.
What formation is this? It is so wonderful!
Comfortable, way too comfortable! Even if you kill me, I wont return to that mountain cave!
Worth it, its worth it even if I die now!


Hearing the discussion around him, Wei Cheng Bin suddenly felt his nose was sore and almost
cried. He hurriedly lowered his head to disguise his state. When he raised his head, what he saw
was a flash of tears at the corner of Master Ji Weis eye.
For people like him, the Golden Crow City in front of them was the final dream in their hearts!
One after the other, the formation battle watchtowers covered in complex formations scripts
appeared in their vision, causing them to sigh in amazement again. Everyones hearts was
instantly comforted. The enormous group of formation battle watchtowers seemed to be
announcing their power and gave them a strong feeling of safety.
Alright, move quickly! Master Ji Wei bellowed at the top of his lungs to wake the group of
people up. We need to go first build the places we will be living in. Otherwise, we need to
return to the cave tonight. Which one of you wants to return?
Of course, no one was willing so everyone hurried to start building.
The xiuzhe that knew earth element spells usually were also skilled in building houses. The
xiuzhe of the forging division were never properly educated. Many of them had a pretty good
earth element spell.
Everyone work hard! Lets try to finish before dusk so we can have a little fun tonight. Master
Jie Wei waved his arms with excitement.

As Zuo Mo had already divided out the different living districts beforehand, the camp was
naturally the most important part. Gongsun Cha first needed to reorganize the numerous troops
under his command. He didnt interfere with the Guard Camp. He didnt understand the things
Shixiong was doing with the Guard Camp. Just the xiuzhe under his command were enough to
give him a headache.
He didnt want to break down the organization of the six divisions. These xiuzhe cooperated very
well among themselves. If new people were added, their offensive capabilities would decrease.
However, Gongsun Cha was not the same greenhorn that didnt understand anything anymore.
He easily worked to reorganize.

The six divisions were the primary force, and were under the command of Vermillion Bird
Camp. The fact that the first camp created was called Vermillion Bird Camp, and not Black
Warrior Camp[1] was enough to express how much everyone liked Golden Crow City from the
bottom of their hearts. The xiuzhe that had comprehended essence and were led by Ma Fan and
Xie Shan were put into one platoon, Sky Peak Platoon. What was a surprise was the Shield
Guard Platoon was led by Zong Ru. The main purpose of the Shield Guard Platoon was to
protect Gongsun Cha, and transmit Gongsun Chas orders.
The remaining two thousand xiuzhe were divided into the Eastern and Western Camps. In
Gongsun Chas plans, Eastern Camp and Western Camp were the reserve that would provide
talented xiuzhe for Vermillion Bird Camp.
In Gongsun Chas vision, Vermillion Camp would have twelve divisions, one thousand six
hundred and sixty four people. Adding on the quartermasters and supporting xiuzhe, it would be
a full one thousand and five hundred people. There were just six divisions now, so it was only
half complete.
But he was also clear that Vermillion Bird Camp which was skilled in ambushing was not in
great demand since they possessed the Golden Crow City. The most pressing matter at the
moment was to train the xiuzhe of the Eastern and Western Camps to use the formation battle
watchtowers.
The reorganization calmly progressed.
As to the Guard Camp, that was Shixiongs headache. Having finished his preparations, Gongsun
Cha quickly moved into the Golden Crow City.
When the night came, Golden Crow City was very loud. The lanterns at the sides of the street
filled the little city with brightness. From afar, it looked like a city that was floating in the air!
Today was a holiday for everyone in the city!
Many people cried from happiness. They finally had a place to rest, a place to shelter them from
the elements, they finally had a place where they could relax and sleep!
In the calamity-ridden Little Mountain Jie, Golden Crow City was one of a kind!
Gongsun Cha silently watched his subordinates celebrate. Those people that usually werent
afraid of death were sobbing like children at the moment. His heart didnt feel so good. He knew
more. He knew the city was just to prepare for the big battle against the Clear Sky Old
Forefather.
From the moment it started to be built, the fate of Golden Crow City was set in stone.

He pressed together his lips, quietly leaving the partying camp to find Shixiong. He found
Shixiong at a formation battle watchtower. He was slightly shocked. As everyone was partying
madly, Shixiong was staying by himself at the formation battle watchtower.
Noticing Gongsun Cha come over, Zuo Mo raised his head. Im trying to see if I can use the
formation battle watchtower to nurture the Sonic Lightning Walnuts.
Gongsun Cha became alert. Did Shixiong find something?
En, it seems plausible but I still need to test it. Zuo Mo noticed Gongsun Chas low mood.
What? Has Shidi encountered something unhappy?
He understood the two shidi very well. Cheng Shidi was a person obsessed with animal-keeping.
While Gongsun Shidi usually seemed vicious and murderous, but in reality, his mentality was not
any different than Cheng Shidi. They were both very nave and did not know worldly matters.
I just saw they are so happy. But in the end, there will be nothing. This city is destined to be
destroyed, Gongsun Cha said dejectedly.
Zuo Mo was silent. He walked to the guardrail and looked into the distance. After a moment, he
smiled and said, I hadnt thought such a violent person as Shidi would be so sentimental. He
paused slightly, turned his face, and said seriously, Little Mountain Jie is a cage. Can there be a
paradise in a cage? What we want is to survive because we understand that if we cannot escape
the cage, we will die. It is like using warm water to cook a frog, we will be cooked slowly.
Among them, some understand and some do not. Those that understand are not willing to think.
Why? They feel if they can live one more day, it is one day. Zuo Mo said in a deep voice, But I
dont think the same. I would rather to use those miserable days to trade for a chance, a chance to
escape.
Golden Crow City has never been a paradise! If we succeed, even if this city does not exist
anymore, they will still be able to find their paradise! Zuo Mo said resolutely.
Gongsun Cha raised his head. The depression on his delicate face swept away cleanly. Those
eyes that were usually covered in killing intent and people could never see into were so clear
now there was no impurity.
The two exchanged a look, and smiled at each other.

[1] The Vermillion Bird (Zhu Que) is one of the four sacred/benevolent animals of Chinese
culture. It is actually a five- colored bird, not just one color. Its element is fire and the cardinal
direction it represents is the south. Black Warrior (Xuan Wu) is another name for the Black

Turtle (Xuan Gui). Its cardinal direction is the north, and its element is water. In mythology, the
black warrior is made of two entities, a tortoise, and a snake who are two great generals. Due to
the origins (Wikipedia), Xuan Wu would usually be a much better name for a military troop.
Translator Ramblings: Ah, Zuo Mo is always sensitive to anything that can impact his bottom
line. He doesnt care that a few thousand people are cultivating to be mo if he doesnt have to
spend jingshi. Pu Yao is now offering help without being asked this is a large improvement
compared to the beginning of their relationship.
Zuo Mos city is now habitable and the people are excited. He really points to the main problem:
there is no freedom in Little Mountain Jie. If they dont rebel, they will forever be living in a
place they cannot leave and at the mercy of Clear Sky Sect since they control the only entrance,
and therefore the flow of all goods imported and exported.

and Sixty Four The Rudimentary Form

Chapter Two Hundred and Sixty Four The Rudimentary Form
Taking advantage of the fact that the Old Forefather was in seclusion, He Xiang concealed the
matter. The other people also knew this matter had created too much of a mess. If it was revealed
to the top, everyone would die so they all kept their silence. Their greatest losses this time were
the five slave transporting boats. The value of the one thousand xiu slaves was very limited.
They were still able to afford the compensation for five slave transporting boats.
Yet, the loss that made them want to spit blood was that many of the bosses that they had
finished negotiating with had died in this ambush. The agreements that they had made had
become a waste of effort. These factions would enter a period of chaos, reform, and choose a
new leader. This meant that their work would drag on for a longer period of time.
This damned group of hooligans!
If he caught them, he would definitely tear their bodies to pieces!
He Xiang gritted his teeth. Thinking of the factions that were in chaos, he felt his head ache. He
suddenly found that from the time he had become the Chief Elder of the Outer Hall, an
unfortunate sequence of bad luck had followed him. Nothing had gone smoothly.
What he needed to consider now was whether he should intervene in the internal conflict of these
factions. There was not much time left for him. If he could not complete this matter before the
Old Forefather came out of seclusion, he would lose all of his chances.

All of the formation battle watchtowers lit up. The warm silver lights were very beautiful in the
night.
Seven Sonic Lightning Walnuts were floating at the top level of each formation battle
watchtower They were bobbing like they were in water. They occasionally flew around the
interior of the watchtowers. The ceiling and walls of the towers continued to release silver dots

of light. These mist like silver dots of light would then be absorbed by the Sonic Lightning
Walnuts.
Zuo Mo carefully inspected every Sonic Lightning Walnut that was being nurtured in the top
level of the watchtowers. The formation battle watchtowers were carved with the [Yin Fiend
Hard Lightning] formation. These dots of silver mist that looked harmless contained minuscule
amounts of hard lightning. After being nurtured like this, the power of the Sonic Lightning
Walnut would be even greater.
The construction of the city was only half completed. The remaining half was the most difficult
part.
In the watchtower at the very center of the Golden Crow City, Zuo Mo started to dig down into
the soil. He incinerated the evacuated soil using Golden Crow Fire. His body had entered the
second maturation. The noise of this maturation process was much less noisy than compared to
the first time.
The improvement of second maturation was not as evident as first maturation, but he could still
clearly feel the improvement of his body.
[Sky Glass Wave] had improved to nineteen revolutions from eighteen revolutions. The power
had increased, but there was no qualitative change.
But what interested Zuo Mo was the mo matrix on his body.
Jade Metal Head was a mo physique. After the second maturation, a faint mo matrix started to
appear. The mo matrix started first on his chest and it was very faint. If Zuo Mo didnt carefully
inspect his body, it was likely he would have missed such a subtle change.
His skin had become black and glowing. The mo matrix patterns were also black, and very faint,
so they were hard to detect.
Zuo Mo carefully studied them for a while and found the mo matrix that had floated out was not
complete. Many places were far too faint and hard to decipher. He concluded that they must only
completely appear after third maturation.
He noted it down before going back to building the city.
In the span of a few short days, Golden Crow City was completely revamped.
The streets were abnormally clean. New buildings neatly spread out like a forest on both sides of
streets. The style of these buildings were varied. There were green brick yards, brightly colored
sharp pointed towers. The xiuzhe of Golden Crow City came from many different places. The
only buildings that could not been seen here were the residences frequently seen in other cities to
be floating in the air out of consideration for safety.
The fruit trees on both sides of the street were tenderly green and heavy with fruit that gave off a
tantalizing fragrance. All of the empty spaces like under the trees, and the corners of buildings
were planted with flowers and grasses to make them attractive to the eyes. For these trees and
grasses, all of the xiuzhe that had knowledge of ling farming had joined in. Many kinds of birds
had been enticed over. Vitality flowed in every corner.
Nian Lu, who dragged a group of xiuzhe back through hurrying day and night gaped at the
beautiful scene in front of him and lost the ability of speech.

Bao Yi bowed to Lil Pagoda that was floating in front of him, his expression slightly wary,
Pagoda ye, are you hungry again?

The chubby Lil Pagoda tried its best to produce a proud stance, but one could not bear to look at
it. Behind it, Silly Bird raised her head and pushed out her chest, her stomach tightly stretched
and fat. The half-lidded eyes didnt show any intentions of properly looking at a person. On top
of Silly Birds head, the antenna of Lil Black restlessly waved as it looked around.
Bao Yi didnt dare to laugh. He didnt dare to offend the three little ancestors in front of him.
He really didnt understand. These days, could talismans, steeds, and worms become so
intelligent? The three formed a troop and would come at intervals to sweep the stores. The
weirdest one was Lil Pagoda. It would swallow anything. Talismans, materials, all of it would
go to its stomach.
But Boss was very lenient with them, and had told him to give the talismans that could not be
used to Lil Pagoda.
To a miser like Bao Yi, this was akin to carving the flesh out of his heart. Even though he knew
that there wasnt much value in those talismans, but the smallest grain of rice was still food.
Watching as they all landed in Lil Pagodas stomach, and not having the smallest piece of
jingshi come out, his heart bled blood.
Wastrel! Such a wastrel!
Unconsciously, Lil Pagoda had become Bao Yis greatest enemy!
Of course, he didnt dare to show the enmity that was in his heart. Lil Pagoda was deeply
favored by Boss. If working under Zuo Mo previously had been a decision made out of
helplessness, then his heart was truly loyal now. He had never heard of a person so strong they
could build a city like this by themselves, much less seen one. Right now, he seemed to
understand why an expert like Xie Shan would willingly serve Boss.
Look at the strong offensive abilities under Boss command! Oh, the God of Wealth Up High, he,
Bao Yi, had never thought he could personally see such a strong and vicious troop!
He didnt believe there was anyone that had the power to pose a risk to them in Little Mountain
Jie unless Clear Sky Old Forefather personally came. He admired Boss very much for this point.
Boss had opened up his provisions of jingshi for his subordinates. The troop of seven hundred
people used three thousand and five hundred third-grade jingshi a day. If it was converted, it
would be seven pieces of fourth-grade jingshi.
Seven piece of fourth-grade jingshi daily! Whoa! He had almost fainted when he had first
learned this. Even in Little Mountain Jie where jingshi was not worth much at present, it still was
not a low number.
He felt a compelling pressure. The talismans that they had gained were not able to be sold. Now
that the city was constructed, he needed to think of ways for Boss to start doing business.
Otherwise, if they just fed off of their savings then in the long term, they couldnt sustain it in the
future.
Just as he was wandering in his thoughts, he saw Lil Pagoda waving in front of him. He
hurriedly refocused and suddenly found that a line of puppets had formed behind the three.
Puppets!
As an experienced merchant, Bao Yi had worked with all kinds of talismans, and naturally seen
puppets before. Truthfully, from his angle, the construction of these copper puppets were very
rough.
Copper puppets were just one step above paper puppets, but still were very common mainstream
items. He twisted his mouth. This kind of copper puppets couldnt sell for a good price, even if
he was the one doing it.

However, it was possible to see that the person who had designed these puppets had put in a
great deal of thought. These puppets were designed for mining. The bottom half of their bodies
were jointed in sections like a snake. That would allow them to adjust to all kinds of uneven
terrain. The top half was shaped traditionally like a person, but there were four arms instead of
two.
The puppets lined up neatly, each puppet carrying on its back a cloth bag that was larger than
their bodies.
Bao Yi lost some of his disdain. These puppets may look ugly, but they were very strong and
were pretty good puppets.
He watched as these puppets came in, and put down the cloth bags on their backs. Bao Yi
quickly found a little mountain pile up in front of him.
This Pagoda ye, what is all this? Bao Yi carefully asked.
Lil Pagoda bent its chubby body and acted as it was talking.
Bao Yi swallowed and wiped the sweat on his forehead. He asked uncertainly, Is it to let me
see? Every time he faced Lil Pagoda and the other two, it was as though he was facing an
enemy. He regretted not learning how to play charades when he was young.
Lil Pagoda nodded.
Bao Yi released a breath. He hadnt guessed incorrectly. He hurriedly ran over and opened the
cloth bags.
The blinding light of jingshi reflected on his dumbstruck face and filled the room with light.
Lil Pagoda ran in front of Silly Bird to ask for praise. Silly Bird used her wings to brush Lil
Pagoda. Lil Pagoda instantly became happy, and hurried flying to the front to led the way. This
guy was very clever. They had become familiar after coming here a few times. With Lil Black
on top, Silly Bird walked its proud stride and floated off as she brushed past the stunned Bao Yi.

Shu Long was the highest ranked supervisor of the Guard Camp. He was an old xiu slave.
Differing from the many people who had just been captured, he had already passed through five
owners. This caused him to hold great authority among this group of xiu slaves.
He scanned the camp. Everyone was furiously cultivating. He couldnt help but give a satisfied
expression. He was full of gratitude towards his present owner. Only xiu slaves that had passed
through many owners would deeply appreciate how much the present situation was like paradise.
He had actually received favor from Master to command the Guard Camp. He was full of
excitement and terror. He was happy that he could help Master, but terrified that he would ruin
the matter.
What he hadnt expected was that Boss didnt get them to go work, but had them cultivate.
Cultivation was very good. Even though he didnt know much, but he knew that cultivation was
value. However, he couldnt help but worry. Masters action was benevolent, but in the eyes of
other people, he was a wastrel. Who would let xiu slaves cultivate?
He had never heard of something so absurd.
But since Master had ordered it, he could only do his best to help Master. Sometimes, he couldnt
help but fantasize that some experts would be produced out of the Guard Camp and serve Master.
It would be worth it even if he died.

Master had kept them, and allowed them to cultivate. All of Guard Camp were holding their
breath. What Shu Long was most afraid of were the new slaves. New xiu slaves only had hatred
in their minds. In their eyes, all xiuzhe were enemies.
He had also once walked that road.
Shu Long, get them to come one by one. I need to inspect their progress. A thought came from
the necklace on his neck. His mind became alert. Cultivating was so strange. This necklace of his
should probably be a talisman.
Yes! he hurriedly responded, and rang the large drum.

In the sea of consciousness, Pu Yao interestedly played with the necklace. The little toys that Zuo
Mo forged had some usefulness.
Making a troop that cultivated mo, how interesting would something like that be!
Translation Ramblings: Xiu slaves are worth less than their transportation boats which isnt so
strange if you think back to how much a free lianqi xiuzhes wages are and how expensive
talismans are. Clear Sky Sect probably just had to pay the merchant/business for the boats, not
the slaves.
Lil Pagoda is growing fat Bao Yi treats Lil Pagoda like it is a calamity. On another note,if
Zuo Mo had to have a patron god, it would probably also be the god of wealth a.k.a the god of
jingshi. The puppets are pretty good in design though Im curious if it would be better in therms
of stability for them to have multiple legs like an insect or to be like a snake like their present
form.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Sixty Five Silly Birds
Shocking Change!
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiofDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Two Hundred and Sixty Five Silly Birds Shocking Change!
Silly Bird swallowed down a piece of grey mud.
This was a ball of grey mud that Lil Pagoda had just spat out. Lil Black had no interest in the
grey mud. Silly Bird was the only one that liked it. The three of them had a great relationship,
especially as Silly Bird occupied the position of leader with a proud and matter of fact attitude.
The other two little ones were very obedient towards Silly bird.
So whenever Lil Pagoda had the chance, it would skip to give the grey mud it spat out to Silly
Bird. Zuo Mo had been very busy recently, where would he find the time to take care of them? If
he knew how much of the grey mud Silly Bird had swallowed, his heart would definitely bleed.
That was so much jingshi!
Silly Bird didnt have any intentions of being frugal and swallowed the grey mud as though it
was her right. The talismans that were collected were of much higher grade than before.
Previously, the majority had been second-grade, but now it was third-grade. The storage were
filled with a large amount of third-grade talismans. Since they couldnt find buyers for them, and
the xiuzhe couldnt use them, all of them had entered Lil Pagodas stomach.

Just by looking at Lil Pagodas fattened figure, it was possible to see how good its recent days
had been.
Silly Bird had also received benefits along with Lil Pagoda.
What was unexpected was that Silly Bird suddenly had a painful expression, all the feathers on
its body were shaking. A faint whirlwind started to appear around its body, and spin continuously
around her.
Lil Pagoda and Lil Black instantly became nervous.
Some grey energy threads suddenly appeared under Silly Birds wings. As though they were
alive, these grey threads of energy climbed and wormed their way up her wings. Her pain
seemed to increase as her body shook more fiercely. The grey energy quickly spread over her
body at a rate visible to the naked eye.
In an extremely short period of time, the grey energy had spread along her long slender neck
until it reached her eyes.
Honk!
A sound filled with pain caused Lil Pagoda and Lil Black to freeze on the spot in fright.
Pew.
An extremely small sound as though something had been lit.
Silly Birds entire body was wrapped in an extremely thick layer of grey mist. Looking at her
from afar, she seemed like a roiling cloud of mist. Threads of grey energy spread out from the
cloud, and entered the whirlwind that was swirling around her body, pulling out thin grey threads
in circles.
The grey thread circles increased in number until there appeared to be an invisible silkworm
spinning silk. The dense layer of grey thread continued to dance around Silly Bird and gradually
formed a grey silk cocoon. At the very center of the grey cocoon was a ball of mist that
continued to spew grey smoke.
Honk!
The painful sound seemed to come from the bottom of the heart. Bao Yi, who had been
disturbed, changed expression. Lil Pagoda and Lil Black were so scared they lost their minds.
The grey cocoon suddenly flew into the air, leaving behind a grey shadow, as it disappeared into
the horizon.

Zuo Mo, who had been working on the citys construction, suddenly changed his expression.
Damn it! His legs pushed off as he flew into the air.
Ill sort you all out when I get back!
Zuo Mos furious voice passed back. Everyone at the ground looked at each other in ignorance.
After a while, Xie Shan tried to ask Gongsun Cha, Boss, should we send someone to follow?
Gongsun Cha glanced at the people that were yearning to go. Do you guys want to slack off?
Dont even think about it. All of you, stay alert. Every one of you added together wouldnt be a
match for that woman.
The other people instantly faltered. They remembered that the female xiu who always followed
Boss was a terrifying existence!

Zuo Mo hurriedly followed in pursuit. Silly Bird that was wrapped in the grey energy flew
extremely fast. He used all his power and could barely manage to keep up. He was both furious
and panicked. Little brat, when ge catches up to you, just wait!
Lil Pagoda was connected to him. In an instant, he had known what had happened.
The more he thought, the angrier he got. Ge was working hard and was so tired, and you guys
made trouble, you guys dont want to live!
His mind prepared the series of tortures that would occur once he caught Silly Bird. It may have
been due to the stimulus from his rage, his speed increased by another faction. The Thunder
Flowing Light Wings were pressed to their limits. He was like a bolt of lightning!
No matter how fast he flew, the female xiu managed to follow without any effort. But at this
point, Zuo Mo didnt have the attention to spare.
His mind only had one thought, faster! Faster! Even faster!
All of his mind was engrossed in operating the Thunder Flowing Light Wings. After building the
city, from the [Yin Fiend Hard Lightning] to the thirty six hard lightning formation battle
watchtowers, without noticing it, his understanding of lightning had reached another level.
Flowing Light was a kind of lightning. Very quickly, he comprehended it and grasped the trick to
it.
The light of the Thunder Flowing Light Wings exploded. The Wings disappeared. They became a
ball of lightning that wrapped around Zuo Mo. His speed increased yet again!
Boom!
As the lightning flashed across the sky, it gave off a heart-shaking vibration. The sound was
small but it passed into the distance.
However, after chasing for several hours, Zuo Mo still lost Silly Bird. No matter how much he
accelerated, he could only watch as the grey shadow distanced itself from him and gradually
disappeared.
Do you know where she went? Zuo Mo stopped abruptly and asked the female xiu.
The female xiu stood to one side silently as though she hadnt heard anything.
Which direction? Tell me! Zuo Mo awkwardly added on hand motions, his voice extremely
panicked.
The female xiu was like a statue and did not speak.
Speak! Zuo Mo suddenly raged!
The female xiu was not affected, and did not move.
Looking at the female xiu silently gazing at himself, the furious Zuo Mo suddenly calmed down,
the anger in his eyes disappearing bit by bit.
Sorry, I lost my temper just now! Zuo Mo sincerely gave an apology. Even though he knew the
other could not hear it, he had lost control of his temper. Calm, he needed to be calm!
Pu Yao, do you know which direction she went? Zuo Mo entered the sea of consciousness to
ask Pu Yao.
Just now, it was to the east, Pu Yao said with helplessness. My strength has been greatly used
up, the range of my consciousness is much smaller than in the past.
Towards the east! Zuo Mo did not hesitate to keep on flying towards the east.
That damned Silly Bird! When ge catches you, ge will pluck you clean. How will you fly then?
Zuo Mo thought hatefully .
He continued to channel ling power to maintain the Thunder Flowing Light Wings as he flew
across the sky. Fortunately, his body had strengthened greatly in the past while. Of his body,

consciousness, and ling power, the improvement of his ling power was not as visible as his body,
but the recent progress was not ordinary.
His ling power had reached twenty five jing, only five jing away from the second stratum. What
Zuo Mo didnt know was how shocked the world would be if he spoke of such a crazy
progression speed!
In each stratum, preliminary growth would always be rapid, but the rate would become slow as
they got closer to the peak of the stratum. Five jing of cultivation didnt seem like much.
However, many people would expend three years, five years, or even longer on these five jing.
Zuo Mo knew that while his cultivation growth rate had slowed, but the decrease was much
smaller than normal xiuzhe.
He didnt know if it was caused by the mo physique or something else.
At this time, he didnt have the attention to spare. He gathered his ling power and flew with all
his power towards the east.
Flying without rise until sunset, there was still nothing to be found. He looked in all directions,
there were no traces. Zuo Mos expression became dark, and couldnt control himself from
swearing, Damn it!
However, his ling power was now completely used up. He had no energy to keep flying and
could only land.
Taking out a few pieces of jingshi, he made a Primary Replenishing Formation before meditating
to recover his ling power.
After reconstructing the mo physique, the previous formations on his body had been destroyed.
However, this mo physique could automatically filter the impurities in the ling power. Zuo Mo
patiently processed the ling power he absorbed. Even though the ling power that was absorbed
did not have impurities, they were purer if he processed them and easier to control.
After two hours, Zuo Mo opened his eyes again, a light flashing in the dark.
Just as he stood up, the jingshi on the ground exploded into ball of dust.
This is troublesome, Zuo Mo flew into the sky, and muttered with a grimace after looking
around.
The night was dark, and the coldness seeped into the bones. The cloud layer was very low, dark
without any light. Zuo Mo decided to fly up. After a moment, he struggled out of the cloud layer.
The last bit of clouds were thrown behind him, the vast sky appearing in front.
All of the stars were so bright, densely covering the entire sky. From the ground, the cloud layer
looked endless. Under the starlight, it was like a black ocean.
Between this cloud ocean and the stars, he was the only person!
He had never seen such a beautiful scene before. He was entranced for a while.
A moment later, he woke up. Looking at the female xiu that was silently floating beside him, his
mood became slightly better. He said to her with a smile, Silly Bird is somewhat dumb, but silly
birds usually have silly luck, she shouldnt be in trouble this time.
He knew that the female xiu could not hear. Speaking this was just to comfort himself.
Suddenly, a few dots of light appeared in the sky.
Zuo Mo was instantly alerted and turned his head around .
It was a sword light! Zuo Mo was not unfamiliar with sword lights. These were the lights that
were usually created when sword xiu flew on their flying swords.
These sword lights came extremely quickly. Almost in the blink of an eye, they went from the
size of a sesame seed to a mung bean. Zuo Mo could barely make out that there were four people
coming, three male and one female, all of them sword xiu.

Zuo Mos mind secretly became alert. These four people were not ordinary. Their speed as they
flew on the sword was almost the same as when he would be using the Thunder Flowing Light
Wings with all his power.
However, he didnt avoid them but moved forward. He wanted to ask the four people if they had
seen Silly Bird.
The four of them came very quickly. Zuo Mo vibrated his ling power and shouted out, Please
wait!
The four sword lights stopped at a place fifty zhang from Zuo Mo. All four of them looked
warily at Zuo Mo. One of them opened, Why has Sire stopped us? His tone was slightly
unfriendly.
Sorry sorry! Zuo Mo raised his hands and smiled with friendliness. This ones steed was
suddenly alarmed. This one has chased for a long time, but has lost it. Stopping everyone is just
to ask if you have encountered a grey misty cloud?
The expressions of the four eased. One of them said, We did just see a grey shadow pass by, but
it was to fast, we couldnt make it out.
Zuo Mos mind became alert. Do you know which direction?
That way, the person said as he pointed behind him.
Zuo Mo hurriedly gave his thanks, rose and flew in the direction the person pointed at.
Shixiong, you are? the female xiu asked with puzzlement. They hadnt seen any grey
shadow along the way.
Hee hee, the person laughed darkly. We cant capture that benefit, but we cant let the person
named Huang and the others to get it so easily. Otherwise, when we go back to Clear Sky Sect,
our branch wouldnt even have any room.
This persons cultivation doesnt seem to be high. I saw that he is only ningmai first stratum,
another person said confusedly.
Ha ha, we can silently follow behind. You will know when it is time, This person said
confidently. Maybe we can even take advantage of the chaos, and get some benefits.
Translator Ramblings: Aah, Zuo Mos pets come back to remind us of their presence.
WanderingGummiOfDoom thinks Silly Bird flew off because Zuo Mo told her to go fly the last
time she was leveling up. Thats very plausible and if thats the case, then all of this is Zuo Mos
fault.
Also, Zuo Mo is clearly not thinking with a clear mind and Pu Yao admits his increasing
weakness.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Sixty Six A Little Harvest
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Two Hundred and Sixty Six A Little Harvest
After flying for about an hour, there were still no signs. Zuo Mo calmed down. He knew that
panicking was not useful. Based on Silly Birds fierce flying, she probably wouldnt stop
anytime soon. As long as the direction was right, he would find her.
The grey mud that Lil Pagoda spat out was a smorgasbord of substances outside the five
elements. He didnt know what change would come after Silly Bird had eaten so much. It would
be good if nothing happened to her. He was very worried. Silly Bird was the first ling beast he
had owned, and he had a deep attachment to her. Even though she was very proud and had

terrible habits, like showing off and not looking at people properly, but when he thought about
the first time he was wounded, and Silly Bird had done her best to carry him back, his heart still
was moved.
Suddenly, an extremely fine sword light flashed twenty li away from him.
Zuo Mo was slightly surprised. It seemed his luck today wasnt so terrible. It required luck to be
able to encounter other sword xiu when flying in the air at night, especially with the drastically
reduced population of Little Mountain Jie. Not even one in ten remained, but he had met two
different groups today.
He was just going forward to ask if the other had seen Silly Bird when the sword light
unexpectedly curved and flew towards him.
Seeing the situation, Zuo Mo didnt move and waited for the other.
When the other flew close, Zuo Mo saw his appearance. The person was an extremely young
xiuzhe in his early twenties. The light-glimmering ling armor did not look like something
average. His feet were stepping on a flying sword shaped like a ling snake. He looked very
carefree as he flew in the wind.
Seeing the pride on the others face, Zuo Mo muttered inside. Before he spoke, he heard the other
shout, Hey, do you know five element spells?
Zuo Mo instantly was discontent, his brow unconsciously furrowing. He speculated inside that
this person definitely was a disciple that had just come out of the sect to gain experience.
Surviving in the outside, just this kind of arrogant and brash tone was enough for him to die
multiple times.
I know some, Zuo Mo still planned on asking about Silly Bird so he endured it.
The persons eyes lit up. Come with me! Finishing, he turned and left.
Zuo Mo rubbed his nose. Where had this silly bird came from? Oh, no no no! If Silly Bird knew
that he had given her and the guy in front of him had the same name, she would be humiliated to
the point of hitting the wall to suicide!
The ignorance of the other caused Zuo Mo to not know what to say. His mind suddenly moved.
How could a guy like this have survived in Little Mountain Jie? The only place he could think of
was Clear Sky Sect!
Only Clear Sky Sect could have such an unworldly disciple!
You are a disciple of Clear Sky Sect? Zuo Mo asked, tilting his head.
Ha ha, you know that ye is from Clear Sky Sect! Since you know, then obey! If ye is happy,
theres some benefit for you. If you provoke ye, humph, no matter how big Little Mountain Jie
is, there is no place for you to hide, the person said proudly as he turned around.
It really was meeting ones enemy on a narrow road!
Since he knew the other was a disciple of Clear Sky Sect, Zuo Mo didnt have any more worries.
With a flip of the hand, a flying sword appeared. This flying sword was serenely green, with
rippling waves and extremely nimble. This sword was called Serene Water Sword, peak of thirdgrade. It was even better than the Water Drop Sword that Zuo Mo previously had.
Zuo Mo would only pick the talismans that he liked or found useful from what they had captured
and put them into his ring. His ring at this time was piled full with fine talismans and rare
materials.
This Serene Water Sword was just third-grade, but its entire body was forged from Serene Green
Water, and was rich in water element power. It was already the peak of third-grade talismans.
With the Serene Water Sword in his hand, Zuo Mo seemed to be walking on the ground in the air.
Pia pia pia, taking a series of small paces. Wind rose when his feet touched the air!

Zuo Mo held no fear when facing a ningmai. He had defeated ningmai xiuzhe when he had been
in zhuji. Now that he had broken through to ningmai, his confidence had grown more. Even
more, his fantasy enemy during this period of time had been the Clear Sky Old Forefather.
Compared to the fear of a jindan, a ningmai third stratum expert didnt seem so scary.
His first attack was [Li Water Burning Heavens]!
In an instantly, the body of the Serene Water Sword was covered in water-shaped flames. These
clear and transparent flames were like a piece of living crystal as it flickered!
Compared to the flame of the past that had been multiple zhang long, the water-shaped flame
was now just a short one chi, silent and serene!
This meant that Zuo Mos sword essence was even more condensed and had improved.
[Li Water Sword Scripture] was only a third-grade scripture, but Zuo Mo had comprehended
sword essence. If he persisted in walking down this path, tempered his sword essence, and
experimented with variations, he may be able to create new sword moves.
Zuo Mo had not expected the sword essence he comprehended the most of all the sword essences
was Li Water sword essence and not Ice Dragon sword essence. In his hands, the sword scripture
that was just a small third-grade seemed to change.
It was as though he did it without any effort. There was no pause. His little trot created countless
afterimages, the sword in his hands serenely burning!
A gentle slice upwards!
There was none of the past explosiveness, or the sword essence radiating out, or the howling!
As clear and serene as water, as bright as fire!
A serene, light, and almost careless spark flashed.
The face of the Clear Sky Sect disciple changed greatly. He shouted angrily, How gutsy! You
dare
The voice suddenly stopped. His expression changed greatly. A sword essence that was almost
tangible securely locked onto him!
Sword essence!
He was actually an expert that comprehended sword essence!
Clear Sky Sect was also a sword xiu sect. He naturally knew the dangers, and understood that he
had offended the wrong person this time.
Among the Clear Sky Sect disciples, only three of the shixiong had comprehended sword
essence. He had actually randomly encountered such a person! He was full of regret. The internal
competition of Clear Sky Sect was very fierce. The power of the shixiong had long been
impressed into his mind.
Gritting his teeth, his hands swiped, and an extremely small light shot at Zuo Mo!
Hm! In the air, Zuo Mos figure did not move. His wrist flicked lightly, and produced a round
wall of fire!
The wall of fire was like a great net that caught the light.
Zuo Mo stopped his figure, and grasped at the air. The clear flame wrapped around the light that
slowly flew towards him.
Sky Sand! Zuo Mos eyes suddenly lit up. Without any hesitation, he opened his mouth and
spat out a thread of pure golden flame. It was Golden Crow Fire. Once Golden Crow Fire
appeared, Zuo Mo retracted the sword essence. The transparent flame turned to vapor and
evaporated into the air.
The Golden Crow Fire drew out a line of fire and wrapped around the light.
Golden Crow Fire! this Clear Sky Sect disciple paled and exclaimed, his voice trembling.

Once the Golden Crow Fire wrapped around the Sky Sand, Zuo Mo couldnt help but shake his
head. It really was a waste of something good! Sky Sand was the essence of earth element. This
Sky Sand that was the size of a sand particle and was eight hundred catties in weight! Such a
precious treasure of the earth, yet the impression method was so crude. Zuo Mo, who had always
been frugal, felt his heart was in pain.
The Golden Crow Fire easily wiped away the formation on the Sky Sand. This Sky Sand
revealed its original appearance.
Square and symmetrical, it was an extremely precise cube. The color was deep gold. Entering his
palm, Zuo Mo felt his right hand was weight down, and he almost dropped it.
So heavy!
A special eathy energy spread out. Zuo Mo suddenly felt as though he was situated in dense sand.
Good thing!
Zuo Mo was overjoyed, and instantly threw it into his ring. This piece of Sky Sand might be
small, but it was a rare fourth-grade material. If he could forge it well, he would have another
good talisman.
The Clear Sky Sect disciple was dumbstruck. This particle of Sky Sand was his life-saving
talisman. He gaped upon seeing the other easily subdue it.
After a while, he managed to react, and swore, pointing at Zuo Mo, You you you
After you-ing for a while, Zuo Mo didnt hear any further words and snickered. He examined
the other from top to bottom. I really hadnt seen it. You brat, you do have some oil on you!
You what do you want? The Clear Sky Sect disciple instantly panicked when he saw the
greedy gaze Zuo Mo had.
I dont want much. Hee hee, everyone should share good things! Zuo Mo snickered as he
spoke. A few yellow and red rope pieces appeared on his hands. Each red rope was just the
thickness of a chopstick.
Immortal tying chain! The Clear Sky Sect disciple almost fainted.
Coming out of a big sect like Clear Sky Sect, one could be unskilled at other things, but their
knowledge and experience would definitely be stronger than those from small sects. That stack
of red in Zuo Mos hands were all immortal tying chains! Immortal tying chains were the general
name for a type of talisman. There was only one use for them, to tie up the enemy.
The first impression he had of the immortal tying chain was that it was very valuable! Because it
was to imprison the other, immortal tying chains were mostly woven and forged out of materials
that were not easily damaged by flying swords. That would guarantee they were strong enough
that the enemy could not easily break free or cut it.
He had never seen someone taking out eight immortal tying chains at once.
Even more, he had never thought there would be a day he would have to face eight immortal
tying chains at once!
Hm, youre pretty knowledgeable, Zuo Mo said. However, his hands were not slow, the eight
immortal tying chains flying out.
Once the immortal tying chains left his palm, they grew to ten zhang long!
The eight immortal tying chains caused it to appear as though the sky was covered in immortal
tying chains.
The other basically had no power to resist. After struggling for a few moments, he was tied up
tightly.
However, when Zuo Mo saw the gigantic rope egg made from the immoral tying chains making
eight layers around, he was dumbstruck too. He hurriedly took down the extra immortal tying

chains, leaving behind one. When he saw that Clear Sky Sect disciple again, the other had
already fainted.
His eyes then lit up. This was a pretty good battle tactic!
Immortal tying chains were third-grade talismans, only had one purpose, and were very
expensive. He hadnt noticed them before, only finding them somewhat interesting so he had put
them into his ring. The scene just now had made him realize the power of this move. One
immortal tying chain was not strong enough, the other could dodge or escape, but the immortal
tying chain had one benefit it didnt require much control.
When ling power was channeled, each immortal tying chain would be ten zhang long!
Eight pieces of chain ten zhang long was enough to create a secure and large net in the sky.
Unable to be dodged or blocked!
If he had to face such a thing, he couldnt help but shudder
Just having thought of a new tactic, Zuo Mos mood was very good. When he looked at the Clear
Sky Sect disciple tied up like rice dumplings, Zuo Mos mood became even better.
As expected, one had to leave the home!
If they didnt leave, there would be no gains!
His hand beckoned lightly, and the Clear Sky Sect securely tied up flew in front of him. Zuo Mo
hummed a little tune and started to methodically plunder.
No ring
Then he will take the clothes, oh no, take the ling armor
Translator Ramblings: Zuo Mo goes back to being a scalping zombie weirdo. I wonder if I
should label this the first time Zuo Mo encounters a typical young master person. This one is
one naive greenhorn. One who is going to be completely naked since he committed the terrible
crime of not having a spatial ring to put his treasures.
A person commented a few days ago on a chapter near the beginning they were going to stop
reading because of how bad Pu Yao was. Then someone commented they wanted more Pu Yao
and Zuo Mo action where Pu Yao torments Zuo Mo and he misses their past interactions. Taking
a step back, Fang Xiang tried to flip the cliche of the old wise master on its head by making him
a selfish one that torments and occasionally hampers Zuo Mo. Theres still a lot more to go in the
story and Pu Yao will evolve but where do you guys fall in terms of your opinion of Pu Yao at
present?

Chapter Two Hundred and Sixty Seven Ambush
Zuo Mo was very experienced and practiced. In an instant, the Clear Sky Sect disciple only had
his pants left.
The only thing he felt regretful about was that this guy wasnt as rich as he had thought. He had
searched through this guys entire body and hadnt found a second Sky Sand particle. This result
clearly could not satisfy him.
His hand opening slightly, water quickly gathered at his palm and formed a ball of water. Zuo
Mo slammed the water ball onto the face of the Clear Sky Sect disciple.
The Clear Sky Sect disciple slowly woke up.

The coldness of his entire body made him realize in the shortest amount of time what had
happened. He was like a pure little lamb, trembling and looking with terror at Zuo Mo.
Im going to ask you a few questions. If you answer them, Ill spare your life, Zuo Mo grinned,
baring his teeth.
This grin in the eyes of the Clear Sky Sect disciple was like a big grey wolf opening its jaws in
front of him, flesh and blood still lingering on the sharp white teeth.
He uncontrollably shuddered all over. He finally understood that this black-skinned person in
front of him wasnt afraid of Clear Sky Sect.
His mind was blank. How was that possible? How could there still be a xiuzhe in Little Mountain
Jie that wasnt afraid of Clear Sky Sect?
Looking at the others dazed eyes, Zuo Mo became slightly impatient. His killing intent showed.
Ge doesnt have the time to wait for you!
The other shook and woke up from his daze. He swallowed. Daren, please ask! Please ask!
Have you seen a grey shadow recently? Moving at very fast speed! Zuo Mo stared at the Clear
Sky Sect disciples eyes.
Grey shadow? What grey shadow? The eyes of the Clear Sky Sect disciple was still confused.
Zuo Mos heart suddenly dropped. He had been staring straight at the others eyes and knew the
other had not lied. Had those four people lied to him? Suspicion rose. He said coldly, I just saw
four people right now. They said they seen it, and was in this direction.
I havent seen The Clear Sky Sect disciple suddenly yelled, Four people? Was there
also a woman?
Yes! Zuo Mo saw the others expression and knew he had been tricked.
Motherf***er! Liu Dong Hua you bastard, you dare to make trouble for ye! The Clear Sky
Sect disciple that was swearing saw Zuo Mos cold eyes, and explained, Daren, you were
tricked! Those four are also disciples of my sect. They purposefully directed you over here to
mess up our good matter
He suddenly closed his mouth.
Good matter? What good matter? Zuo Mo narrowed his eyes.
No nothing, just that our shixiong
Seeing the other nervously stammer, Zuo Mo didnt waste words, his hand grasping around the
others neck.
The terrifying strength passed on from Zuo Mos fingers caused his soul to fly out. He didnt
dare to hesitate and rapidly said, Its a secret realm! A secret realm! We found a secret realm!
The entrance to the secret realm needs xiuzhe that understands the five elements to open it! We
dont have anyone that is skilled in the five elements! Liu Dong Hua and the others want to get a
share, but were driven away by Huang Shixiong! So so
Hearing this, Zuo Mo finally realized.
So it was a secret realm!
He had been wondering why the Clear Sky Sect disciples would run to Little Mountain Jie. Now
he knew the cause, he couldnt help but grimace. His heart was stirred by the secret realm, but at
this time, finding Silly Bird was more important.
He then asked, Where did you get this Sky Sand? Dont tell me there is only one particle!
Hmph, hmph!
This particle of Sky Sand was bestowed when this ones master was alive. There is only one.
Seeing the disbelief on Zuo Mos face, he grimaced and said, Sky Sand is the treasure of the
sect, and produced by the sects sect protector ling beast Crouching Soil Rhinoceros. One particle

is produced every three years. Right now, the Crouching Soil Rhinoceros is kept by the Old
Forefather, no one dares to think of obtaining it.
You dont have this, you dont have that, you still want to lie? Zuo Mo said coldly.
I I I Frightened by Zuo Mo, this disciple instantly didnt know what to say. Suddenly, he
became alert. Grey shadow! Grey shadow! I remember now! I didnt see the grey shadow you
spoke of, but I heard a shixiong mention it.
Seeing the faint scorn on Zuo Mos face, he was even more panicked. Really! I swear! I
definitely am not lying! It was Lei Shixiong who said it. He said he had just seen a grey shadow.
He thought it was a treasure that had come out of the earth and wanted to catch it. But the grey
shadow was too strong. Lei Shixiong said that ball of grey energy was not something inside the
five elements, and should be a treasure
Hearing this, Zuo Mos mind jumped. Everything could be to fool him, but that phrase not
something inside the five elements made him believe it slightly.
Where did the grey ball go after that?
I dont know, Lei Shixiong didnt say.
What is he called?
Lei Hao.
How many of you are there?
Twenty two.
Zuo Mo asked a few more details. This disciple didnt dare to conceal anything. After he finished
questioning the disciple, Zuo Mo gave a satisfied expression, and his hand lightly squeezed.
The disciples neck instantly was snapped, an expression of disbelief still remaining on his face.
Zuo Mo lightly flicked his hand, and threw the lifeless corpse into the cloud layer. He hadnt
planned on letting this guy go in the first place. He and the Clear Sky Sect were enemies. Even
more, this was Little Mountain Jie. Only disciples like him that came from the sect would
believe someone would let them live.
The female xiu stood motionlessly next to him.
His mind suddenly moved, and his body sank down, hiding among the thick cloud layer. He
turned and looked. The female xiu was still beside him. Through the mist, he could only see a
faint outline. Zuo Mo smiled slightly.
If he didnt see it with his own eyes he couldnt feel the female xius presence at all, even
though the other wasnt even a zhang away from him. This was always the case. No matter how
much he scanned using his consciousness, he couldnt detect any bit of the female xius presence.
Many times, the female xiu would give him the feeling of coldness. He could feel the strange
power, but could not find the presence of life.
Zuo Mo took away his gaze, and took out the Shadowless Cape from his ring. Once the light
Shadowless Cape was put on, his presence became fainter. After a while, his presence
disappeared into the air.

A while later, four figures arrived at Zuo Mos former position.


He had stopped here for a time. Hm, there also seems to be that idiot Lu Huis presence. Liu
Dong Hua carefully inspected the surroundings, and gave a satisfied expression. It seems they
already had a conflict.

There is only the two of them. Huang Zhuo Guang has more than twenty. The shidi beside him
shook his head.
It could be seen the leader of the four was Liu Dong Hua. Liu Dong Hua appeared to be in his
forties, the light in his eyes hidden away. He chuckled. Maybe not. This persons strength isnt
ordinary, and especially the woman beside him has unfathomable strength. Our sects disciples
are probably not a match.
This strong? The three people all had shocked expressions.
Liu Dong Huas expression was solemn. En, everyone, be careful, dont get into conflict with
them. These two dont have common origins. Dont underestimate the xiuzhe of Little Mountain
Jie. They are used to killing which we cannot compare with.
The other three gave unconcerned expressions. On their journey, if they stated their identity as
Clear Sky Sect disciples, the other people either flattered them or had faces full of fear.
Seeing the situation, Liu Dong Hua knew that he was wasting his words and did not speak
further.
We should be careful. Seeing the lack of concern on their faces, he slowly said, If Huang
Zhuo Guang and the others knew we are still chasing after them, everyone wont have good days
in the future.
When he mentioned Huang Zhuo Guang, the other three reflexively gave terrified expressions.
Liu Dong Hua looked at them, and prepared to speak when his expression suddenly changed.
Careful!
Several red shadows suddenly burrowed out of the cloud layer and leapt at them!
Immortal tying chains! they exclaimed and hurried to summon their flying swords.
Motherf***er, why is there so many?
Dont use flying swords, use fire to burn them! Liu Dong Hua reminded loudly. Talismans like
immortal tying chains were hard to damage with flying swords, but things like fire and ice were
their enemy. The people that had planned on using flying swords to slice quickly dodged
The female xiu took out a jade tablet. This was a beast service card. Its entire body was bright red
as though it was made from fire jade. A bright red fox was nimbly depicted on the surface.
Seeing her take out the beast service card, Liu Dong Hua and the others released a breath. The
beast service card sealed a third-grade Fire-Tail fox. This Fire-Tail fox had already produced a
fire tail and was perfect to subdue these immortal tying chains.
But before he could rejoice, he suddenly saw the air behind Shimei ripple. His face suddenly
changed. Careful!
Shimei raised her head with confusion, not understanding why.
A flying sword suddenly appeared one chi away from the back of the Clear Sky Sect female xius
head.
A smear of light flashed.
There were no ling power ripples, no sword moves, just a simple thrust.
Pew!
The Clear Sky Sect female xiu who didnt detect it didnt have the time to respond before the
sword flashed, and her head separated from her body, a pillar of blood thrusting high into the air.
Shimei! The other three xiuzhe were infuriated when they saw how terrible Shimeis death was.
Liu Dong Hua felt his head ring. Shimei and he had had a good relationship from youth. Damn it!
When he saw the person behind Shimei, his pupils suddenly shrank. The fury and killing desire
swept away, his heart sinking to the bottom.
It was him!

Its you! Liu Dong Hua gritted his teeth and said hatefully, I underestimated you
Zuo Mo sighed inside. This Shadowless Cape was really the best weapon for assassination. He
had come so close to the other from behind and the other had not detected him. But it was a pity
that if he moved, he would reveal his presence. To completely conceal his presence, it would
need almost two breaths. Two breaths were not a long time, but in battle, it was enough to be
fatal.
This caused the Shadowless Cape to have only one chance to attack, and greatly limited its
usefulness. However, that was more than enough for Zuo Mo.
As for Liu Dong Huas hate-filled words, it didnt cause any ripple in his mind.
As expected, this was a greenhorn. Facing the enemy and wasting so many words.
Without the Fire-Tail fox, the other three instantly sank into an extremely reactive state. The
eight immortal tying chains were like eight red snakes dancing in the sky and chasing after the
three people. If one of them was brushed, even a little bit, it would be like a ling snake and coil
around a person.
These immortal tying chains were abnormally nimble and chased them tightly.
For a xiuzhe like Zuo Mo who had high spiritual power controlling many talismans at the same
time was their most skilled technique.
A viciousness flashed across Liu Dong Huas eyes. He reached and took out a talisman!
Translator Ramblings: Well, poor disciple from Clear Sky Sect who got betrayed by his fellow
disciples, know that some of your fellow disciples are meeting the same fate as you.
Also, for those of you wondering, they see the masked female accompanying Zuo Mo.
Its late and Im tired as I am scheduling this post so this rambling is super short. Theres things
in this chapter I want to talk about but Im too sleepy.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Sixty Eight Nine Turn Sky Soil Disk
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212. (and
with the help of Text Splitter provided by Phoenix.)
Chapter Two Hundred and Sixty Eight Nine Turn Sky Soil Disk
Clear Sky Sect was a sword sect, but it had other branches. Liu Dong Hua was a successor of one
of those branches. His branch specialized in earth element spells, but their branch had declined in
power. However, Liu Dong Hua was still able to establish himself by relying on a treasure, the
Nine Turn Sky Soil Disk.
The Nine Turn Sky Soil Disk was a talisman passed down from a jindan of their branch. Clear
Sky Sect produced Sky Soil. Even though Sky Soil was slightly less valuable than Sky Sand, but
it was still a rare earth element material. Among the earth element materials, it belonged to the
third-grade.
This ancestor had used nine thousand catties of Sky Soil, and entered into seclusion for ten years
in order to forge the Nine Turn Sky Soil Disk. The day the talisman had formed, the earth energy
around all of Clear Sky Sect had spread, and shook. Their sect had became famous. At the time,
their branch hadnt been like it was now. That elder had been the second most powerful expert in
the sect. In the end, they lacked the support of profound spells. After this elder, the branch had
gradually declined and became poor.
When it came to Liu Dong Huas generation, there were the four of them.

This Nine Turn Sky Soil Disk had passed into Liu Dong Huas hands. Generation after
generation of forging lasting four hundred years, this Nine Turn Sky Soil Disk had actually
birthed a hint of cognition and became a sixth-grade talisman.
This was one of the reasons that large sects were so strong. Even sects like Clear Sky Sect who
did not have relatively long histories or deep foundations were not something normal sects could
compare to.
At this time, Liu Dong Hua was holding the Nine Turn Sky Soil Disk in his hands. His
expression was stern, all the ling power in his body flooding into the disk.
The Nine Turn Sky Soil Disk was entirely dark yellow and not at all eye-catching. The surface
was covered in fine golden patterns on one side, the other with concentric circles, dividing the
Nine Turn Sky Soil Disk into nine parts. A golden palm was carved into the very center.
A faint brown light rose from the Nine Turn Sky Soil Disk in Liu Dong Huas hands. It appeared
as though he was holding a ball of light. Boom, the light suddenly exploded.

Zuo Mo felt the sky above his darken, all the starlight was completely covered. The surroundings
were filled with yellow-brown earth energy that covered him like a mist.
He instantly felt an invisible force squeeze him, his expression couldnt help but change. These
minuscule yellow-brown dust particles around him were actually very heavy. Zuo Mo felt as
though he was at the bottom of the deep ocean. The heavy pressure enveloped him, pressing on
him so that he couldnt breathe.
What talisman is this? Zuo Mo was shocked.
He struggled to turn his head and saw the female xiu. The female xiu was silently standing in the
yellow mist, her eyes flashing with a purple light that made Zuo Mos bones shiver.
Among the soil mist, the immortal tying chains seemed to have been stopped in midair
motionless.
Suddenly, the earth mist started to slowly flow. Zuo Mo instantly felt the pressure increase.
Ka ka ka!
Light sounds came from the bones in his body. Zuo Mos body uncontrollably trembled. The
shocking invisible force came squeezing from all directions. Zuo Mo felt as though he had been
dropped into a meat grinder.
Pu, what is this thing? Zuo Mo hollered.
It is an earth element talisman. You have to be careful, Pu Yaos voice sounded in his mind,
containing a rare gravity. This talisman is at least fifth-grade, possibly sixth-grade!
Sixth-grade!
Zuo Mo wanted to spit blood. Since when was it that ningmai could bring out sixth-grade
talismans? And he had to meet one?
Creak creak creak!
The slowly flowing earth mist contained uncontrollable force, squeezing so much that Zuo Mos
innards had almost condensed into a ball. Zuo Mo watched helplessly as his body slowly flowed
along with the slowly flowing earth mist.
He stayed motionless, but his face had changed shape as though it could explode at any time.

The three people from Clear Sky Sect were not affected at all by the earth mist. If the mist neared
them, it seemed to encounter an invisible wall and could not proceed further.
Shixiongs Nine Turn Sky Soil Disk is so powerful! I think that in the sect, other than Old
Forefathers Clear Sky Sword, then it should be Shixiongs Nine Turn Sky Soil Disk!
Yes! When Shixiong cultivates [Bright Soil Scripture] to the fifth level, even Huang Zhuo
Guang wont be a match for Shixiong.
The two saw Zuo Mos sorry state, and laughed.
This person is going to meet a tragic end. Shixiong liked Shimei and definitely wont have
mercy on this guy. If he doesnt grind this guy to meat paste, he definitely wouldnt stop.
Shimei has also died, oh. The other person couldnt help but be slightly depressed. When this
affair is over, Im planning on going to Sky Water Jie.
Ah! Why are you thinking of going to Sky Water Jie.
The sect is a mess right now, theres nothing interesting, He smiled mockingly. Anyways, Im
not a core disciple, the sect will let me go.
The other person was silent. He suddenly noticed the female xiu and was shocked. That woman
is weird!
The body of the female xiu was covered in a faint layer of purple light. She seemed to be nailed
to the air. No matter how the earth mist in the surroundings flowed, she did not move.
The two of them were speechless from shock and gaped. The earth mist was fine, but it was
forged from nine thousand catties of Sky Soil. Any living being could not possibly resist inside
the earth mist. The Nine Turn Sky Soil Disk was a sixth-grade talisman, a talisman that jindan
used, and should not have appeared in the hands of a ningmai.
This woman was able to resist the Nine Turn Sky Soil Disk!
Liu Dong Hua also noticed the female xiu, shock flashing across his mind. He rarely used the
Nine Turn Sky Soil Disk. One reason was that he was worried that other people would see it and
become greedy. Another was that this treasure was naturally powerful, but it was beyond his
cultivation. It was extremely hard for him to activate it. But of the few times he had, there wasnt
a time he hadnt been easily victorious. He had never met someone who could resist.
On the Nine Turn Sky Soil Disk, light flashed and circled on the outermost layer of the surface.
This was the first turn of the Nine Turn Sky Soil Disk.
After a while, the female xiu still remained motionless. Even the dark male, who seemed quite
disheveled, was also struggling to resist.
A bad feeling appeared in Liu Dong Huas heart, but he didnt believe the two people could resist
the second turns power. In this short while, a third of his ling power had been consumed. He
knew that he had to activate the second turn immediately. Otherwise, even if he wanted to
activate it, he wouldnt have enough ling power.
He closed his eyes, and the second circle of the Nine Turn Sky Soil Disk lit up.
The earth mist suddenly became dense. Before, it had only been a hazy earth mist. Now, the
density multiplied, and the color turned dark.
The two shidi were shocked and their expressions became serious. The two knew that Shixiong
had activated the power of the Nine Turn Sky Soil Disks second turn!

The earth mist was extremely dense, so much that one could not make out their fingers. The dust
in the air was irritating to the nose. The earth element power was so rich it was almost tangible.
Zuo Mo felt the pressure multiply again.
He couldnt control himself from wailing, and spat out a mouthful of fresh blood. As the blood
landed in the earth mist, it was ground into minuscule particles and mixed among the earth mist.
A frightening hint of red appeared in the brown earth mist.
The terrifying power slowly flowed. His body seemed to feel it was crushed between two
mountains. The terrifying pressure could not be avoided and made him helpless.
Under the shocking burden, every blood vessel, muscle, and bone of his body were on the verge
of failing!
Death was so close to him. It seemed to be next to his face, coldly staring at him!
Zuo Mos mind was blank. Enormous pain and hopelessness filled every corner of his body.
Calm and clarity had disappeared completely. The only thing Zuo Mo possessed was the most
basic instinct to survive.
Ah ah ah ah!
Zuo Mo furiously shouted. Spells, tactics, in this instant, they were all forgotten!
Ling power and the consciousness was furiously channeled. The power of every muscle in his
body was pushed to their peak instinctively!
The earth mist felt Zuo Mos intention to resist. The surrounding earth mist flooded towards Zuo
Mo, the flowing rate increasing and the pressure suddenly mounting once again.
Zuo Mo had completely lost all of his senses. He was in his death throes, but since his body was
restrained by the earth mist, he couldnt move. The light flashed on his body, sometimes sword
essence, then fire, then fist energy, then hard lightning
The color of his body continued to change. It would be pure golden yellow as though it was
made from gold, then it would be like black and shining jade, clear, and then there would be
threads of black energy burrowing about.
Inside Zuo Mos body, the five element glass bead also detected danger and automatically
activated, five element power spreading into Zuo Mos body.
Ah ah aaaaah!
Zuo Mo went completely berserk, his features twisted. He was like a wild beast trapped in a cage
making his final struggle, ferocious and crazy!
Zuo Mos body became a chaotic battlefield. He couldnt even move a finger, and couldnt send
out any spell. All kinds of forces randomly flowed through his body and rampaged. Adding on
the pressuring power from the outside, it turned to a mess.
Damn it! Pu Yaos expression changed.
The entire sea of consciousness relentlessly trembled, showing signs of collapse.
The immortal tying chains that had been stuck in the mist and could not endure such strong
power, they were ground into dust.

The female xiu had noticed Zuo Mo state. The purple light surrounding her shot up, and her
entire person seemed to be covered in a ball of purple fire. The eerie purple fire was not affected
at all by the earth mist, and flickered eerily!
That pair of fine and perfect jade feet, with extremely slow speed, rose up.

The mask could not endure such a strong pressure. Pia, it turned to dust, and revealed that ugly
and scabbed face. The female xiu still did not have an expression. Pia pia pia, the dense scabs on
her face could not endure the pressure, and exploded.
Ball after ball of blood flowers blossomed on her face.
In the blink of an eye, no part of her face was whole, and was completely covered in blood. She
did not attend to it, allowing the blood on her face to slowly drip down and off her chin before
being swept away by the mist to become a bloody mist. The purple fire rose again. The eyes that
were flashing with the purple light actually dimmed down at this time.
Her face was expressionless. Every movement required her to use all her power. She could only
slowly move bit by bit.
There was just a zhang between the two of them. Usually, that would only require a step.
Among the heavy and fatal brown colored earth mist, a figure covered in purple fire slowly
neared at snails pace towards another figure.
Translator Ramblings: Zuo Mos foot fetish is still active even when he is in deathly danger.
Lots of conflict within the Clear Sky Sect. Compared to that, what Wu Kong Sword Sect had was
just a little minor conflict. Also, sixth-grade talisman! How much jingshi is this worth?
You guys pretty much covered what I wanted to say about Zuo Mos growth and experience in
questioning the other person last chapter.
Lastly, Phoenix has made this really cool text splitter program which splits the Chinese and
English part so if I do not forget to use it, you guys wont see leftover Chinese text again!

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Sixty Nine Who The Mother F***ing
Are You
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom and warlord212.
Chapter Two Hundred and Sixty Nine Who The Mother F***ing Are You
Zuo Mo was like a wild beast without any avenue of escape.
The earth mist surrounding him was thousands of catties heavy as it flowed. His body was
uncontrollably swept up in the flow of the earth mist.
The female xiu stopped, raised her face covered in blood and looked at Zuo Mo who had
separated a bit more from her, before continuing to move forward. Those perfect and flawless
bare feet stepped on the eerie purple fire, travelling slowly through the heavy and dense earth
mist.
Liu Dong Huas face was as pale as paper.
He had not expected these two people were so hardy! It was the first time he had used the second
turn of the Nine Turn Sky Soil Disk. He had underestimated the expenditure of ling power. Right
now, he was also had no way to backdown. His ling power was almost depleted, yet the two
people were still resisting.
Motherf***er, where had these two terrifying people come from?
He had assumed that the female xiu was immeasurably powerful, but the hardiness of the black
male surpassed his imagination. There wasnt one disciple in his sect that could hold up under
the power of the Nine Turn Sky Soil Disks second turn for so long! Not even Huang Zhuo
Guang could do it!
What kind of weirdos were these two? His heart started to become terrified.

He forced himself to calm down. He knew that there was no solution other than persisting. The
black male didnt look as though he still had any capability to fight, and that female xiu, while
her face was covered in blood, shouldnt have been wounded heavily. If he took away the Nine
Turn Sky Soil Disk, the two shidi wouldnt be able to stop this strange female xiu with their
abilities!
The purple fire was very scary, but Liu Dong Hua guessed that it came at great expense.
The two sides had entered a standoff to see who could last longer.
The depletion of ling power made Liu Dong Hua feel a weakness he never felt before. His face
was as pale as paper, but he knew that it was time to go all in. Viciousness flashed through his
eyes. A lingdan appeared on his hand. He did not hesitate to shove it into his mouth.
Ling power suddenly exploded inside his body. A smear of red floated on his white face.
The expressions of the two shidi changed. With this Ling Primary Dan going down, Shixiongs
cultivation would be damaged for at least three years. Shixiong was putting his life on the line!
The two stopped breathing. They hadnt thought that a situation they were in control of would
become one where they were risking their lives. But they knew the result of this would decide if
the two lived or died.
Shixiong, bring us over!
The shidi that had been planning on going to Sky Water Jie after this battle ended suddenly
shouted. The other shidi looked with slight puzzlement at him.
Shidi, well channel ling power to Shixiong!
This shidi gritted his teeth and nodded. Right, were in this together!
Liu Dong Hua rejoiced inside and hurriedly cast the spell. The light flashed, and the two
appeared beside him. He didnt have the energy to speak now. Seeing the situation, the other two
shidi didnt waste words, each person reaching out to put a palm to his back.
The three cultivated the same scripture, and the attribute of their ling power was the same.
Ling power flowed continuously from the arms of the two shidi into Liu Dong Huas body. Liu
Dong Hua felt that the ling power in his body had never been so plentiful. His confidence
growing, the light of the Nine Turn Sky Soil Disk brightened!

Zuo Mo was like a wild beast at the precipice, howling angrily according to his instincts. Threads
of black energy suddenly appeared on his body. The brown earth mist still was as heavy and
murderous as before, but these hair-thin threads of black energy did not falter against the earth
mist which could grind anything.
As though nothing else existed, they climbed and squiggled on Zuo Mos body. Immediately,
they burrowed into Zuo Mos body and disappeared.
Just now, Zuo Mos body had been very chaotic.
Right now, there were only two colors left, red and black!
A dark red alluring flame was swaying like the waists of the belly dancers. The black mist was as
dark as ink and motionless. The two were clearly divided like two greedy beasts that consumed
all the energy they encountered along their path.
In a short amount of time, all the other powers that were roaming through Zuo Mos body were
swept away.

In the sea of consciousness, Pu Yao sat with his legs crossed. The originally white and pale face
had become even more pale. Beside him, the black clouds that always shrouded the gravestone
had disappeared.
The black clouds and the yao fire were like two vicious beasts resting in Zuo Mos body as they
faced off.
Zuo Mos body calmed down. His consciousness also was slowly pulled back. Even though his
body was still locked in place, but he could not feel the terrifying pressure of the earth mist any
longer. Just having escaped with his life, Zuo Mo didnt have time to sigh in relief. He quickly
found the red and black forces that were facing off in his body, and almost died.
He knew the dangers.
The dark red flame should be Pu Yaos power. Before, the vast sea of flame in his sea of
consciousness had seemed like another world. Afterwards, it may have been that Pu Yao was
wounded or for some other reason, and the sea of flame had disappeared.
He also recognized the black clouds. It was the black cloud that always was around the
gravestone. Compared to Pu Yao who called himself a Sky Yao, the origins of the gravestone
were even more mysterious. But Pu Yao seemed to be unwilling to speak of it.
The connection between the yao and the gravestone was extremely strange. They seemed to be
enemies, but they were also very familiar with each other. He could never understand it.
The viciousness and brutality of the two kinds of power were not disguised any longer. Just
having escaped one calamity, Zuo Mo once again sank into a heart-racing situation.
What Zuo Mo rejoiced about was that the two sides had not attacked each other. Without
warning, the yao fire transformed into an extremely slender thread of fire that burrowed between
Zuo Mos brows. The black cloud seemed like water pouring into sand, quickly seeping
downwards. Zuo Mo could clearly see it was sinking into his bones.
What were these two guys doing? Zuo Mo was somewhat angry.
But before he could express his anger, the pressure came pushing back from all directions!
Damn it!
Zuo Mo suddenly gave a light exclamation. The pressure was still unable to be resisted, but it
was not as painful as before.
It seemed to be almost tolerable
Zuo Mo quickly discovered that it was not his imagination. Had something happened again to his
body? This question flashed across his mind. Before he could inspect it, he suddenly saw a figure
covered in purple fire out of the corner of his eye.
All of Zuo Mos thoughts suddenly stopped at that moment!
His gaze was stunned.
The female xiu was close to him, the purple fire covering her entire body as she slowly inched
over. What shocked Zuo Mo was her face, the face covered entirely in fresh blood. Blood was all
over her face, so he could not see anything clearly except that pair of eyes that were slightly dim.
Seeing the female xiu move extremely slowly towards him like a puppet, for a strange reason,
Zuo Mo suddenly had the impulse to call for her to stop.
Who are you?
Why?
Zuo Mo looked dazedly at the female xiu. For the first time in his eyes, the purple light didnt
hold any kind of fear and darkness. Even though he didnt understand the reason, even though
there were too many mysterious, but Zuo Mo suddenly understood she didnt have malicious
aims.

No. Looking at that face covered in blood, the steps as slow as a snail, she definitely did not have
malicious intentions!
She definitely had a certain connection to him maybe they knew each other before?
He didnt know, he didnt know anything, but at this moment, a certain chord in his heart was
struck.
His gaze landed on the blood covered face of the female xiu, watched as the blood dripped off
her chin into the earth mist and be ground into bloody mist before spreading throughout the earth
mist. As he watched, for some unknown reason, anger suddenly rose in his heart!
It was just a talisman!
An indescribable fury suddenly filled Zuo Mos chest. His eyes instantly turned entirely red, and
two balls of fire could be seen to be bouncing.
His body could not move, the pressure made him feel helpless!
Zuo Mo started to channel his ling power. The ling power filled his arms and started to circulate
with astounding speed.
One revolution two revolutions
Ten revolutions eleven revolutions
Eighteen revolutions nineteen revolutions
The furiously revolving ling power had no intentions of slowing down. The anger was like a
flood. A desire to destroy suddenly rose in Zuo Mos heart!
The slowly flowing, awe-inspiring earth mist was such an eyesore to his eyes, such an object of
dislike, so much so that he wanted to destroy it! Since the moment he had first opened his eyes,
this was the first time he had such a strong impulse and desire to destroy something!
Twenty revolutions!
Twenty one revolutions!
The flame in Zuo Mos pupils shook fiercely and were filled with craziness
twenty three revolutions
The skin on his arms cracked open, marks of blood crisscrossing.
Twenty four revolutions!
Pia pia pia!
Suddenly, blood exploded forth from the glasslike arms!
The flame in Zuo Mos eyes danced crazily like a deep sea of flame.
His features twisted, the tendons bulging. Each fibre of muscle was trembling, each bone was
cracking!
Get up!
Zuo Mo gritted his teeth and shouted angrily. He used all the energy in his body to push at his
arms!
Crack crack crack!
He heard his bones crack. His eyes were all red as though he was insane.
Get up!
Blood streamed out of his fiercely trembling arms as they slowly moved upwards.
The sea of flames in the deepest part of Zuo Mos eyes grew and filled every corner of his eyes!
He was like an enraged beast, bellowing angrily, Motherf***ing get up! Aaaaaaaaaaaah!
His arms suddenly sped up in their movement as though the restraint of the earth mist had lost
effect!
The glass-like arms, that were covered in bloody crisscrossing marks, rose up and slightly
cocked back.

Zuo Mo inhaled deeply, his fire red eyes widening as he gathered the last threads of his strength.
He was like a brutal prehistoric demonic god as his arms punched out.
Motherf***ing die!
Two fists that appeared to be carved from glass left his hands! A dignified and stern face could be
seen on the surface of each fist energy.
Liu Dong Huas expression changed!
The two fist energies viciously entered the earth mist, flew straight for three zhang before
suddenly exploding!
Heavens!
It was like someone had shouted in a low booming voice, the sound was like muffled thunder,
like the beat of a drum, that made ones heart shake!
The earth mist that had been flowing slowly suddenly started to roil. Liu Dong Hua and the other
two simultaneously gave a grunt, blood flowing out of their noses and mouths, their faces pale! It
was as though the three people had been struck by lightning, remaining motionless like they were
made out of wood.
Twenty four revolution Sky Glass Wave!
The earth mist suddenly disappeared, the terrifying pressure that could not be stopped also
disappeared.
Starlight once again fell onto Zuo Mos body. The three people nearby suddenly dropped down
like stumps of wood.
The female xiu that was no longer constrained took a step and appeared next to Zuo Mo.
All of Zuo Mos energy had been used up. His eyes empty, his body softened. The female xiu
picked him up with one hand.
The face covered with blood was blurry. Zuo Mos vision grew increasingly dark. He tried to
open his eyes, and his mouth, his voice like that of a mosquito.
Who the mother***ing are you
Translator Ramblings: Lots of blood this is a great example of a powerful earth talisman.
Yes, swords can cut you into pieces, but this earth talisman can grind you into the ground and it
can be used without understanding any essence. Also a great example of teamwork from the
Clear Sky Sect disciples. It was in vain but they still stood behind their shixiong in an admirable
show of loyalty.

Chapter Two Hundred and Seventy Great Harvest!
Zuo Mo slowly woke up, and saw the female xiu meditating nearby. A layer of blood scabs had
formed on the female xius face like an ugly and terrifying mask. Zuo Mo noticed her presence
and was slightly surprised. He couldnt help but speculate. Was she injured? After being injured,
control over ones presence would lessen.
However, his attention quickly returned to his own body. No great pain like he had imagined was
present. His entire body was in comfort like he had just had a great nap, his body was filled with
energy.

He instantly detected a difference. The power inside his body was so strong that he felt it
unfamiliar. It seemed that his body had broken through again. He hurriedly sank into his sea of
consciousness to find Pu Yao.
In the bare sea of consciousness, there was only Pu Yao and a gravestone.
Ah, how come its like this? Zuo Mo glanced around with curiosity.
Pu Yao stared at him as though he wanted to eat Zuo Mo.
Sweeping across the surroundings, Zuo Mo saw Pu Yaos gaze and jumped in fright. What are
you doing? I didnt steal your jingshi!
Pu Yao snorted and didnt speak. His gaze still looked with unfriendliness at Zuo Mo.
Zuo Mo thought of the dark red yao fire, and then the black gravestone, and said uncertainly,
The, that yao fire and black cloud, it isnt that I dont want to give it back to you guys
those things, they cant be controlled you know
As he spoke, Zuo Mo felt it wasnt right. His tone suddenly changed, his eyes widening, Thats
not right! I havent even taken you guys to task! What do you guys mean? Ah! Is ges body a
trash center and you can throw anything you want inside?
Pu Yao almost spat out a mouthful of blood, and the gravestone that always remained motionless
shook frantically.
You you you Pu Yaos eyes almost sprouted fire. After a beat, his finger shook as he
said, Dont play dumb after getting the benefits!
Zuo Mo did not feel he was unreasonable in the least. He raised an eyebrow, and suddenly
jumped up. Benefit? What benefit? Ge almost lost this little life. Before, when it was one of you
that was messing around, ge endured it! Thats great now, you guys are even more outrageous,
both of you going at it? Dont think that ge doesnt know what you two are doing. Let me tell
you, be good in the future! An antique that cant keep up with the times, an old rock that cant
even fart, you guys want to get benefits from ge? Ha, perish that thought!
Zuo Mo pointed at Pu Yao and the gravestone from high up, and started to swear.
Pu Yaos face was filled with shock. When he managed to react after a while, his face turned red
and then white.
After his rant, Zuo Mo snorted and left. After he exited the sea of consciousness, he suddenly
remembered why he had gone to find Pu Yao and instantly felt bitter. He had just aimed to vent
right there, and forgot his actual business. It was over!
If he went to find Pu Yao now, that was akin to slapping his own mouth. Even though it was said
that men could bow and kneel, but when he thought of Pu Yaos scornful expression, Zuo Mo
decided to wait a while.

In the sea of consciousness, Pu Yao gritted his teeth, his face switching between green and white.
Beside him, shadows floated from the gravestone. The figure that had been lightly depicted on
the gravestone was now a pile of messy lines.
Never has there been a Sky Yao that was humiliated in such a manner! Never! Pu Yaos bellow
echoed in the sea of consciousness.
The messy lines on the gravestone simultaneously lit up, countless black clouds sprouting out. In
the blink of an eye, the black cloud roiled, brimming with killing intent.

Zuo Mo didnt know that he had forced the two guys in his sea of consciousness to ally together
again.
His gaze landed back on the female xiu. The female xius terrifying face covered in scabs didnt
feel the least bit dark or terrifying in Zuo Mos eyes.
He still didnt have too many clues about the history of the female xiu. The only thing he could
think of was that she was connected to the past that he could not remember. But this was just his
guess. There was no evidence.
His gaze unconsciously landed on the female xius bare feet that were breathtakingly perfect. The
first time he saw this pair of bare feet, he couldnt help but sigh with admiration. It wasnt that he
hadnt seen the bare feel of other female xiu. Xiao Guos feet had also been very beautiful, round
and adorable.
But the female xius pair of bare feet could only cause him to sigh with admiration. They were
just too perfect, so perfect there was no flaw. It made an especially deep impression when such a
perfect pair of bare feet appeared on a female xiu that was as ugly as a clown.
But no matter how wonderful the bare feet were, they were not as good as going to find
talismans.
Zuo Mo quickly moved aside his gaze to looked at the corpses scattered in the surroundings. He
instantly became excited. Taking spoils was a very wonderful matter, and to take from his
enemies was even more wonderful.
His first target was that soil disk that was enormously powerful. That thing was truly too strong.
After personally experiencing the power of the Nine Turn Sky Soil Disk, Zuo Mo could not think
of any talisman that could rival it. Of course, what he remembered most deeply was Pu Yaos
exclamation of At least fifth-grade, possibly sixth-grade!
What kind of world was this?!
As he sighed, he smiled as he picked up the Nine Turn Sky Soil Talismans. His consciousness
probed, and was almost ground to pieces by the dense earth mist inside. He hurriedly withdrew
his consciousness.
Yikes! It really was sixth-grade!
Oooooooooooooh! He struck it rich! Really rich! Zuo Mo couldnt stop himself from dancing
crazily.
This time, it wasnt that he was someone who was not experienced. Right now, he did have some
wealth, and a few fourth-grade talismans on his body. In all ningmai xiuzhe, he could be
considered wealthy, but all the talismans and materials on his body added together could not
compare with this Nine Turn Sky Soil Disk.
If he took it out to sell, wow-oh-oh, the jingshi would be enough to drown him!
This kind of talisman was the kind that would be a sect treasure in any sect of Little Mountain
Jie. How could Zuo Mo not be happy now that something like this had landed in his hands?
After a while, he gradually calmed down, and studied it. He rejoiced in his good luck. The Nine
Turn Sky Soil Talisman was very powerful, but it wasnt a talisman that ningmai xiuzhe could
use. The expenditure of ling power was too much!
Liu Dong Hua had a cultivation of peak second stratum ningmai, and was just able to activate it.
With Zuo Mos first stratum cultivation, he couldnt even activate it. In the short term, he
couldnt use this talisman.
Should he sell it or keep it?

Zuo Mo thought and kept it. It was easy to sell talismans of this level, but it wouldnt be easy to
buy another one.
He hadnt used a sixth-grade talisman before, but he was clear there was a chasm that was hard
to cross between fifth and sixth-grade. This Nine Turn Sky Soil Disk had been a fifth-grade
talisman when it was first forced. After more than four hundred years, and generations of people
nurturing it, it finally birthed a thread of intelligence, and became a sixth-grade talisman.
Carefully putting the Nine Turn Sky Soil Disk, he went back into his salvaging work. However,
after seen the sixth-grade Nine Turn Sky Soil Disk, Zuo Mos eyes couldnt be lit up by any of
the other spoils of victory.
After a while, Zuo Mo shook his head. These four people clearly hadnt done so well in Clear
Sky Sect. Other than the Nine Turn Sky Soil Disk, they didnt have anything good, and were
worse than the first guy he had scalped.
It seemed that the two were not of the same group, and clearly, the guy he had scalped was much
richer than this group.
The female xiu did not stand after a long time. This caused Zuo Mo to have a bad feeling. He
walked next to the female xiu, and laid a hand on her shoulder to inspect her body.
The inspection instantly made him jump.
The strange purple power that always existed inside the body of the female xiu was so faint it
was hard to detect. Her body had lost the restraints of the purple light, and showed signs of
collapsing.
Zuo Mo instantly realized that it wasnt good, unhesitatingly put the female xiu on his back and
leap into the air. At the same time, he expanded his consciousness. After flying for a while, he
found a mountain cave. He hurriedly carried the female xiu into the mountain cave. This was a
normal cave that only had bats inside.
When the two of them flew inside, they instantly alarmed the bats that flapped like a black cloud
out of the cave.
Zuo Mo cleaned out a patch of ground with a blow and carefully put down the female xiu. He
shoved a Black Processing Meditation mat under the female xiu.
This move was visibly effective. Threads of ling power burrowed into the body of the female xiu
and turned to purple light. After a while, the purple light inside the body of the female xiu
increased slightly in brightness. Zuo Mo saw the situation, and thought this wouldnt be over a
matter of hours.
After some thought, he set up a medium-sized Primary Replenishing Formation around the
female xiu. It could continuously provide ling power to the female xiu. Zuo Mo found the purple
light of the female xiu was similar to the mo matrix on his body and was not afraid of the
impurities in ling power.
This allowed him to be daring in his actions.
After guarding for a while, and the situation of the female xiu had stabilized, Zuo Mo decided to
leave. He needed to find Silly Bird. As more time passed , there was a lower possibility of
finding Silly Bird.
He left a jade scroll for the female xiu telling her the direction he was going in. To prevent other
people from disturbing her, he set down a circle of formations at the cave entrance. Illusory
formations were locked and layered with killing formations. It wasnt just difficult to find, but if
it was activated, it would cause a whole string of killing moves.
Zuo Mo really invested a lot in creating it. The power of the killing formations he set down were
very high. Under the interlocking killing moves, other than xiuzhe at the peak of third stratum

ningmai, normal ningmai could not escape. Even xiuzhe at ningmai third stratum would
definitely be severely wounded if they didnt have some precious treasure or obscure method to
shield themselves.
Even though his heart hurt, but Zuo Mo still spent a large batch of valuable materials.
After setting down the big formation, and reexamining it, he looked worriedly at the cave before
flying away in the direction that the Clear Sky Sect disciple he had stripped clean pointed in.
After flying for more than half a day, he suddenly met a large group of xiuzhe.
You! The xiuzhe at the front pointed at Zuo Mo and said without any politeness, Come over!
Zuo Mo saw the apparel of this person was similar to the previous Clear Sky Sect disciples he
encountered. His heart moved, and he moved forward, pretending to be timid and saying, Is, is
there something I can help with? I, I still have something to do!
Come over and follow, that Clear Sky Sect disciple pointed at the group behind him and said
impatiently. What? You arent willing to help Clear Sky Sect?
The other Clear Sky Sect disciples beside him looked with hostility at Zuo Mo.
Zuo Mo rejoiced inside, putting a fearful expression on his face as he silently flew into the
group.
Translator Ramblings: The first few times I read this chapter, I always felt something was
bothering me about what Zuo Mo did by leaving the female xiu alone to search for Silly Bird.
Here was someone who just risked their life to save him, and he was leaving to search for his pet.
But Ive actually realized that it isnt about the pet vs. a person. Silly Bird also saved Zuo Mo
before, and Zuo Mo has known Silly Bird for a much longer time than the female xiu. So going
out to search for Silly Bird is actually a more logical decision than it looks to start with.

Chapter Two Hundred and Seventy One Opportunity
Zuo Mo was did not stand out in the group. A ningmai first stratum xiuzhe could just barely
survive in Little Mountain Jie. Everyone was silent, but the Clear Sky Sect disciples conversed
freely.
These days, no one cultivates five element spells! I heard that Lu Hui still hasnt responded,
dont know where he ran off to. How is it possible to find a person that knows all five element
spells so quickly?
Lu Huis brain has never been too bright. Qi ges method is best. We can find some more people
to get all five!
Ha ha
Zuo Mo heard these people chat as though no one was around. A low voice spoke to him, Bro,
what should we call you?
Me? Zuo Mo pointed at himself, a face full of puzzlement.
Ha ha, I see that this little brothers aura isnt ordinary and I desire to become acquainted with
you. Sorry for the offense! The one who was speaking was a clever-faced middle aged male.
There were seven or eight people beside him. They looked to belong to the same group.
Zuo Mo made up a fake name. Im called Wang Hong, what should I call you?

This one is Liu Gui, the middle aged man bowed with folded hands, and probed, Which side
does Brother Wang live in?
Zuo Mo parried, All over. He then pursed his mouth, Are these your brothers?
Brother Wang has keen eyes! Liu Gui said with a smile. After this short conversation, he
understood that he would not get anything out of Zuo Mo, and stopped conversing further. The
expressions of those beside him were stern and didnt seem to be in the mood to chat.
It wasnt just them. All of the people in the surroundings had worried expressions.
Zuo Mo suddenly asked in a low voice, Why is everyone so docile? He couldnt understand.
There were just three Clear Sky Sect disciples, and they were able to herd almost twenty xiuzhe.
Liu Gui was shocked inside. Just now, he had seen the person hide among the group with an
expression of fear, but he had now asked something like this. He didnt seem to be a coward. He
said without expression, Theres nothing we can do. They are from Clear Sky Sect.
Zuo Mo smiled and didnt respond.
After a while, the more Liu Gui mused, the more he felt Zuo Mos words contained hidden
meanings. Seeing Zuo Mo maintain his silence, he couldnt resist and spoke in a small voice,
What solution does Brother Wang have?
Glancing at him, Zuo Mo said with a smile, What solution can I have?
Liu Gui increasingly felt this young person seemed high and unfathomable. Before, he appeared
weak, but he looked calm now, and unworried. Liu Gui had met many people. He trusted his
eyes. The presence exuded by this person didnt seem like an ordinary person.
Was this a powerful xiuzhe?
He flipped through all the famous xiuzhe that he knew, but didnt find anyone that was similar.
Because he was too young!
Brother Wang looks very young, Liu Gui couldnt help but probe. You look to be in your
twenties, so young, yet you are ningmai, your talent is truly outstanding.
Zuo Mo only smiled, and didnt say anything.
However, what he didnt expect was that Liu Guis words had stirred the attention of his fellows
beside him. Usually, most of the people that broke through to ningmai in their twenties were sect
disciples.
Men usually did not care much for their appearance. The price of Eternal Appearance Dan was
not cheap. Very rarely would men spend that amount of jingshi. Consequently, it was hard to
judge the ages of female xiu, but it was possible to see hints with male xiu. Zuo Mos face was
easily a very youthful face.
However, the attitude that unconsciously revealed itself on his face had a maturity that surpassed
his age.
This one is Zheng Zhong, their shixiong, the leader introduced himself. His words instantly
startled the other disciples. They all raised their heads and looked with bewilderment at Shixiong.
Even Liu Gui had a shocked expression. In their experience, Shixiong rarely spoke. This time, he
had proactively spoken. They couldnt help but look at Zuo Mo.
Nice to meet you, Brother Zheng. Zuo Mo bowed with folded hands. He didnt dare to
underestimate the other. His consciousness was abnormally sensitive. This Zheng Zhong had his
eyes directed downwards but he was a ningmai third stratum expert!
In Little Mountain Jie, ningmai third stratum xiuzhe were the top experts! Experts like these may
not be able to oppose Clear Sky Sect, but they definitely were not people that a few Clear Sky
Sect disciples could order about.
Unless they had other aims?

Zuo Mo became wary. He didnt want to have uncontrolled factors influence his plan. He didnt
care too much about the earthly treasures in the secret realm, but he was very worried about Silly
Birds safety.
That idiots intelligence was pitifully low. As a bird, she was arrogant and outrageous. It would
be a wonder if she didnt get in trouble outside.
Little brothers skill is not ordinary, this one is full of admiration! Zheng Zhong said seriously.
The others instantly had shocked faces. They looked at Zuo Mo like they were looking at a
weirdo.
Zuo Mo felt slightly uneasy as he became the object of attention, and hurriedly said, Ha ha,
what is Brother Zheng saying. This one is just a first stratum newbie, everyone, please take care
of me!
Zheng Zhong did not refute it, smiled and lowered his gaze.
Zuo Mos hairs rose at Zheng Zhongs smile. He decided to stay a bit further away from this
group in case trouble occurred. He was now sure that these people were after the secret realm.
He didnt care about the secret realm, he only wanted them not to damage his plan.
Shixiong, I cannot see where this person is outstanding! a shidi said though a secret language.
They could communicate through a secret communication method that others were not able to
detect.
Liu Gui glanced over, and said through the secret communication method, I feel that this
persons origins arent simple. Look, he doesnt seem nervous at all.
Zheng Zhong suddenly said, Theres killing intent on his body. He has recently killed at least
four or five people.
The others shook in fright.
No no way! a person stammered out. Doesnt he just have first stratum cultivation?
How can he kill four or five people at once?
Disbelieving expressions came onto the faces of the other people.
It was hard to imagine a first stratum xiuzhe killing four people in succession in Little Mountain
Jie. First stratum was the lowest level of power in Little Mountain Jie. In other words, every
person that he killed wasnt weaker than he was. One person killing four people that were not
any less weaker than he was, it was extremely difficult to do.
Maybe he has a powerful talisman? one shidi said through the communication method.
Dont cause trouble. Zheng Zhong said in a solemn tone. This persons strength isnt simple.
Everyone, be careful.
Zuo Mo noticed these people occasionally glancing at him, and grimaced inside. Had he became
a target of these people? That wasnt good!
There were about twenty people in the group. Zuo Mo suspected that these Clear Sky Sect
disciples had stopped every xiuzhe they encountered. He could occasionally hear these people
talking, but those Clear Sky Sect disciples never controlled them.

After flying for two hours, they encountered two more Clear Sky Sect disciples.
One Clear Sky Sect disciple said, You guys are too slow! Huang Shixiong has been waiting for
you, and also Lu Hui. We dont know where he ran off to, not taking care of business, hmph, he
wont get a share this time!

The Clear Sky Sect disciple that had been herding the group said, Thats great. Maybe we can
get a few more items each!
The other people laughed.
It seems you guys had a good harvest. Quick, Huang Shixiong has been waiting impatiently.
Zuo Mos blood felt cold inside. These Clear Sky Sect disciples really had great pageantry. It
seemed that they really thought of Little Mountain Jie as their backyard.
The group flew into a little mountain valley. The mountain valley was heavily guarded by Clear
Sky Sect disciples holding flying swords and talismans as though they were facing a great
enemy. There were already about twenty or so xiuzhe that had been gathered.
Huang Zhuo Guang stood proudly at a mountain peak, looking down at the xiuzhe, and asked in
a deep tone, Have we found all the people that know five element spells?
Huang Zhuo Guang had narrow eyes and long eyebrows, his nose was high, his chin slightly
narrow. He was wearing a bright yellow ling armor, a deep red cape on his shoulders, a copper
circle tying up his hair. His hands were wearing dark blue gloves, a pair of Eye Tiger Head boots
on his feet, he looked extremely grand and warrior-like. He was the most outstanding of the
second generation disciples of Clear Sky Sect, and belonged to the most powerful branch. He
himself was the most favored disciple of Clear Sky Old Forefather, and undoubtedly the leader
of the Clear Sky Sect disciples.
We still lack someone skilled in water element spells, said a shimei in a soft tone. She was
wearing a goose yellow palace robe, her eyes full of seductiveness. She said in puzzlement,
Shixiong, why didnt we get the Outer Hall to assist us? Wouldnt that be more convenient?
The Outer Hall? Huang Zhuo Guang snorted coldly and said, That group of trash, they cant
even defend Nan Sheng Village, how can they be relied on to help us?
Ah! The shimei was very shocked. What happened with the Outer Sect? Someone dares to
make enemies with our Clear Sky Sect?
Hmph! Who cares who they are! Huang Zhuo Guang narrowed his eyes, his voice was sharp
and full of killing intent. Just kill them! After this affair, well go right back. Master had given
the Outer Hall to He Xiang, I hadnt thought this guy who fail so badly! Master is in seclusion, as
his disciple, it is naturally up to me to help share the burden.
Shimei looked with intoxicated eyes at Shixiong, feeling he was extremely magnificent.
You there, which one of you knows water element spells? someone shouted at Zuo Mos
group.
No one responded.
A cold smirk floated at the corner of a Clear Sky Sect disciples mouth, and followed, Those
that know water element spells, stand up and help us. Well give you a fourth-grade flying sword
as reward!
He raised the flying sword in his hand.
This flying swords shape was very unique, like the fangs of a monster. Its body was made out of
a material that was stark white. From two to three zhang away, it was still possible to feel the
waves of killing intent clearly.
Such a vicious weapon!
Zuo Mo was very shocked. This flying sword wasnt ordinary. Just the pure and keen killing
intent was enough to make countless sword xiu crazy.
As expected, the crowd that had been motionless instantly exploded.
I know!
Me me me!

Instantly, seven or eight hands rose up.


Zuo Mo also raised his hand. He wanted to see what this group really wanted to do. He noticed
that Zheng Zhong also raised his hand. He secretly glanced around him, trying to match the
information he got from Lu Huis mouth to the Clear Sky Sect disciples he could see.
His gaze quickly landed on the bright figure that was on a little mountain peak.
The hero of Clear Sky Huang Zhuo Guang!
Translator Ramblings: Zuo Mo sticks out a bit to those who are more perceptive. Zheng Zhong is
smart. Would one of the weakest cultivation run around in a lawless land as fat sheep for other
people unless they had something to rely on?
I miss Zuo Mo and his need for secrecy back when he was selling the yin fire beads. He had
avoid being noticed and also used concealment methods. Now that hes gotten a new face which
is less noticeable, and since there is no need, he hasnt used those disguises he used in the past.
Thank you for all your comments. Its been a busy few days and Ive been spotty in replying.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Seventy Two Huang Zhuo Guang
This chapter has been brought to you by me, and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter Two Hundred and Seventy Two Huang Zhuo Guang
Clear Sky Sect had many branches and many second generation disciples, but no one could
shake Huang Zhuo Guangs position. Besides the support of Clear Sky Old Forefather, Huang
Zhuo Guangs strong individual strength was the most crucial factor.
Before the change in Little Mountain Jie, Huang Zhuo Guang had been labeled the most
accomplished of the younger generation in Little Mountain Jie. The name of the Clear Sky Hero
had spread from that time forward.
He entered ningmai at sixteen. At this age, many people had just started zhuji. At seventeen, he
comprehended sword essence and quickly became the brightest name among the Little Mountain
Jie younger generation. What truly pushed his fame to the peak was what happened during the
calamity.
At that time, the situation had been chaotic. Many people had attacked Clear Sky Sect. At that
crucial time, Huang Zhuo Guang stood out, killing twenty people with his sword. The row of
bloody heads were hung at the gate of Clear Sky Sect. This action instantly shocked those xiuzhe
that during the chaos and allowed the sect to hold out until Clear Sky Old Forefather returned.
It had to be said that half of the reason that Clear Sky Sect held its current position in Little
Mountain Jie could be attributed to Huang Zhuo Guang. That battle had let his brutal reputation
spread throughout Little Mountain Jie, and firmly established his position as second in the sect
under the Old Forefather.
Huang Zhuo Guang was brutal and domineering, but he did not lack cleverness. The other
disciples were filled with respect and fear towards him.
Since so many people had raised their hands, a competition was naturally required. However,
what was being tested wasnt individual power, but who had the strongest skill in water element
spells. The xiuzhe that raised their hands were asked to cast a water element spell.
This wasnt a problem to Zuo Mo at all. He casted the [Little Art of Cloud and Rain], and a
miniature white cloud floated one chi above his palm as it started to rain. As the drops landed on
Zuo Mos palm, they disappeared.

This pure and skilled water element spell instantly defeated the great majority.
Zuo Mo was slightly surprised by Zheng Zhong.
Zheng Zhong did not speak, and lightly tapped a jade card hanging on his waist. A blue water
dragon instantly came out. The water dragon was about one chi long, the blue scales on its body
flashing with an enchanting light. It was extremely smart, a pair of dragon eyes curiously
scanning the surroundings.
Hm, a beast service card!
Zuo Mo was slightly shocked. He didnt know what kind of dragon this water dragon was.
Maybe Cheng Shidi would recognize it. Without a doubt, the grade of this water dragon whatever
its kind would not be low. As the blue water dragon flew out, Zuo Mo instantly felt that the water
element power in the air thickened.
The water dragon innately belonged to water. It was most skilled in water element spells.
The disciple holding the white fang sword had a dilemma. Zuo Mo might have cast a little spell,
but it could be seen with a glance that his skill was not low. Zheng Zhongs water dragon was a
natural expert at control of water.
Both of you come up. Huang Zhuo Guangs voice sounded at this time.
Zuo Mos heart jumped. Huang Zhuo Guangs voice was not loud, but it held an unique kind of
pressure. He could be considered to be experienced now, but it was the first time he encountered
an expert of Huang Zhuo Guangs style. The only one Zuo Mo felt was slightly similar was
Chang Heng. However, there was a difference between the two. Huang Zhuo Guang was
dominating, and Chang Heng was vicious.
If these two people fought, that would definitely be very spectacular, Zuo Mo muttered inside.
He noticed a xiuzhe with a pale complexion in the corner. That was Lei Hao, the person Lu Hui
said had been wounded by Silly Bird. Lei Hao was Zuo Mos target.
The two followed behind the disciple with the white fang sword. Huang Zhuo Guang flew down
from the mountain peak, and said to the shimei beside him, Tell them to prepare to start.
The other people were herded away from this area.
Go, go, none of your business here. In five minutes, whoever remains within fifty li cannot
blame my flying sword! a Clear Sky Sect disciple said maliciously.
A change suddenly occurred!
A sword light like a smear of snowy light suddenly shot towards Huang Zhuo Guang!
Many Clear Sky Sect disciples paled. That sword light had been too sudden. The snowy and
bright sword energy blinded them! The sharp sword essence was like countless shards of sharp
snowflakes dancing.
The shimei beside Huang Zhuo Guang paled. This bit of snowy and bright sword light filled
every corner of her vision! Everything was white! In the blink of an eye, the sharp sword essence
stole away her urge to resist.
An extremely domineering sword light suddenly lit up.
Ha ha! I just knew that there was a problem with you! Huang Zhuo Guang laughed, and then
his expression became cold. But to scheme against me, you arent enough.
In his tone, a strong confidence was expressed.
Zheng Zhongs fellows moved at the same time, sword energies criss-crossing. These Clear Sky
Sect disciples did not have Huang Zhuo Guangs strength and the situation instantly became
chaotic.

The wails and panic of the Clear Sky Sect disciples didnt cause Huang Zhuo Guang to move
away his eyes. He locked tightly onto Zheng Zhong and smirked, Oh, so it is a third stratum. No
wonder you are so gutsy.
Zheng Zhongs eyes were not lowered and half-lidded as previous. In his calm eyes, killing and
battle intent flashed.
Huang Zhuo Guang smiled, Lets go up. Finishing, he flew into the air.
Zheng Zhong did not hesitate in following him into the sky.
Zuo Mo looked right and left. No one was paying attention to him. Instantly, he didnt know
whether to laugh or cry. However, this was actually suitable for him to carry out his own affairs.
He noticed Lei Hao panicking and wanting to flee.
The xiuzhe that had been captured were already filled with hate towards Clear Sky Sect, but due
to Clear Sky Sects might, no one dared to speak up. At this time, as Zheng Zhong moved, and
the situation was chaotic, Liu Gui fanned the flames, deliberately shouting, Flying sword! That
flying sword! Dont let him escape!
Once those words came out, it stirred the hearts of many people. That flying sword had such pure
killing intent. It definitely was a rare top of the fourth-grade sword.
Who dares? Wanting to steal something from Clear Sky Sect! You dont want to live! the
disciple shouted with a stern expression.
Liu Hui hid among the crowd and grumbled, The daring die from overeating, the cowards die
from starvation. Who knows who!
Everyone thought. Yes, such a chaotic situation, they wouldnt know who stole it. Which xiuzhe
that had survived in Little Mountain Jie up until now was a friendly person?
In a moment, dozens of sword lights howled as they shot towards that Clear Sky Sect disciple.
Zuo Mo who had flown away was also scared by the scene. He celebrated that he had left early
enough. Otherwise, he would have also been affected.
You That disciple was both frightened and angry. Before he could finish speaking, he
was chopped by tens of sword energies into pieces of meat, and froze Zuo Mos heart.
Everyone instantly went to grab the sword. After a period of chaos, a xiuzhe with good eyes and
fast hands grabbed the flying sword before turning and running for his life. The xiuzhe that didnt
get the flying swords didnt let go of the other things on this disciples body.
The xiuzhe that didnt get anything quickly moved their red eyes towards the other Clear Sky
Sect disciples.
They suddenly found that after losing the halo of Clear Sky Sect, these disciples were the best fat
sheep!
The situation became even more chaotic.
After a few dashes, Zuo Mo flashed next to Lei Hao and grabbed him as he was fleeing.
Lei Hao was frightened half to death, his entire body shaking, his words nonsense. I I I
give you everything
Zuo Mo furrowed his brow, and raised his hand to slap him a few times to restore him to clarity.
Ill ask and you answer.
You please ask! Lei Hao was stunned from the blows, and recovered from his soulless
state. Even though he was still frightened, but he could manage to speak.
Zuo Mos hand suddenly flashed, his left hand casting a Yang Fiendish Hard Lightning!
Hiss!
It directly hit a flying sword!
With a burst of blue smoke, and a clanging sound, the flying sword landed on the ground.

A sword xiu nearby gave a grunt. His flying sword ruined, his consciousness was also wounded.
He looked in terror at Zuo Mo, and stumbled as he turn to flee, not even daring to pick up his
flying sword.
Zuo Mo didnt pursue him. This scene had been seen by many people. The xiuzhe that had been
charging towards Zuo Mo all turned in fright and went towards other targets. Lei Hao, who was
hanging from Zuo Mos hand, swallowed in terror. Heavens, how had he landed in the hands of
such an expert?
What is with the wounds on your body? Zuo Mo asked word by word as he stared at Lei Hao.
Lei Hao felt his hairs raise at Zuo Mos gaze. The pale face became even more white. He
stammered, I I I encountered something grey. I thought it was a treasure and wanted to
catch it. But that thing was very strange. When I touched it, I was wounded.
A burst of joy came into Zuo Mos heart. He had just inspected the wounds inside Lei Haos
body. His body had truly been harmed by a power not inside the five elements.
Where did the grey shadow go after? Zuo Mo asked.
It flew into the secret realm, Lei Hao obediently responded.
Isnt the entrance to the secret realm closed? How could it fly in?
I I dont know.
Zuo Mo suddenly thought of how the entrance to the secret realm required five of the five
element spells to open and of Silly Birds present attribute of not being within the five elements.
That was a possibility.
Where is the entrance to the secret realm? Zuo Mo asked a last question.
Over there. Lei Hao pointed to a mountain valley nearby.
Zuo Mo snickered at him. You answered well. As he finished, he raised his hand and threw Lei
Hao back into the chaotic battlefield. Instantly, the people converged on him.
Zuo Mo looked at the two people fighting in the air, and regretted that the time wasnt right. If it
wasnt that he was in a hurry to find Silly Bird, he would definitely take the chance to kill Huang
Zhuo Guang. Huang Zhuo Guang was the second ranked expert of Clear Sky Sect. If he could be
killed, it would greatly weaken Clear Sky Sect.
He suddenly found that he had underestimated the strength of Clear Sky Sect.
Huang Zhuo Guang was very powerful! Zheng Zhong had ningmai third stratum cultivation but
he was at the disadvantage. This shocked Zuo Mo.
Seeing Huang Zhuo Guangs sword essence, Zuo Mo suddenly understood a bit. The sky in
Clear Sky Sect wasnt all to do with the Sky Soil, but with the sky itself.
It was the sword of the sky!
The sword essence was vast and intangible. There was clearly nothing, but it made one feel that
it could not be stopped!
Huang Zhuo Guangs sword became even brighter with a hint of with sunlight like warmth. No
matter if it was the sword energy or his movement, when in the air Huang Zhuo Guang was like
a fish in water.
Zuo Mos consciousness was exceptional. He had a feeling that Huang Zhuo Guangs flying
sword had a kind of unspeakable connection to the sky.
He was astounded!
How was it possible?
Did this person start cultivating when he was inside his mother?
In this moment, Zuo Mo decided to kill the other. If he missed this chance, it would almost be
impossible to get a chance to kill him in the future.

An evil no, an ingenious idea came to mind.


Translator Ramblings: Ningmai at sixteen in comparison, Zuo Mo and Wei Sheng are all in
their twenties.
The reveal with the sky and its connection to Clear Sky Sect is a bit more dramatic in Chinese
because the word used for sky in Clear Sky Sect is not tian but a less common character of
xiao . That character also means clouds and night so the name had multiple meanings.

Chapter Two Hundred and Seventy Three The Critical Sword Point
Huang Zhuo Guang stood in the air.
Zheng Zhongs cool eyes unconsciously showed hints of terror. He had been fooled! The
dominance on Huang Zhuo Guangs face had long disappeared, his eyes scornful.
The brutality and dominance was just his disguise!
Zheng Zhong realized that he had been tricked. From the start, he thought that Huang Zhuo
Guang walked the path of domination and strength. At this time, he discovered he was
completely wrong.
The sword of the sky was ethereal, empty and vast, invisible and intangible!
His sword essence was extremely strange. Zheng Zhong had never seen it before. What was most
scary was that the entire sky seemed to have become his support. Meeting Huang Zhuo Guangs
eyes that were as cold and deep as the blue sky, the battle spirit in Zheng Zhongs heart was
unconsciously weakened.
Zheng Zhong was skilled in fighting. His cultivation was also slightly higher than Huang Zhuo
Guang and he had instantly detected it.
However, he wasnt willing to escape like this.
He could see the situation below. He knew that if he could keep stalling for a while, he could rely
on his shidi to come help him. No matter how difficult Huang Zhuo Guangs sword essence was
to handle, or how many transformations his sword moves had, he believed if he and his shidi
worked together, they could kill the other.
At this point, Zheng Zhong was already defeated but his goal was very clear. He wasnt in
attempting to defeat Huang Zhuo Guang but to get the secret realm. Therefore, he was dragging
the battle out.
Your shidi have all been killed, Zheng Zhong suddenly said.
Huang Zhuo Guang smiled unconcernedly and said, Who cares if the trash die?
There was none of the dominance and overbearing presence on his face. His eyes were cold and
composed.
Zheng Zhongs heart felt a chill. This was a vicious and emotionless person. He said, Why dont
you run?
Run? Huang Zhuo Guang seemed to have heard a great joke. Why should I run? I know you
are stalling and waiting for your shidi to come help you.

There wasnt any panic in Huang Zhuo Guangs voice. His mouth curved, his eyes slowly
narrowing. It is a pity that you do not know that the difference in our power isnt something that
can be made up by quantity.
Zheng Zhong was slightly shocked. The confidence in Huang Zhuo Guangs voice wasnt a
pretense, but he was still puzzled. He was at a disadvantage, but the difference in their strengths
wasnt as large as Huang Zhuo Guang stated.
Unless Huang Zhuo Guang had hidden his strength? Zheng Zhongs heart suddenly jumped.

Zuo Mo was very quick. Like a bolt of lightning, he reached the entrance to the secret realm. The
entrance was inside a cave. Outside the cave, it was already chaotic, the sword energies were
flying, everywhere and multicolored talismans flashing about. The ling power inside the little
valley was a total mess.
When Liu Gui and the others saw Zuo Mo, their faces changed slightly.
Shixiong had told them not to provoke this person. They had also seen Zuo Mos Yang Fiendish
Hard Lightning with their own eyes, and were wary. Seeing Zuo Mo coming to the secret realm,
they instantly knew it wasnt good.
Seven of them had been hiding in the chaotic crowd. They were also very careful, and had earned
a significant amount. However, this amount of gains could not compare to a secret realm that had
never been explored.
Zuo Mo had already noticed Liu Gui and the others by the secret realms entrance. Seeing the
wariness on their faces, he knew if he proposed his plan, the others probably wouldnt believe
him.
Making a decision, Zuo Mo did not hesitate and took out the Serene Water Sword.
Inhaling deeply, he stepped hard on the ground and jumped! Like an arrow leaving the bow, he
charged up seven dozen zhang. At the highest point, he suddenly crouched and hugged his knees,
flipping forward. However, he only performed a half-flip. When his head was pointing
downwards, the legs that were curved upwards suddenly pushed off the empty space above him.
Bam!
It was like there was an invisible wall above him, his legs pushing on it, he blasted off!
All the ling power in Zuo Mos body moved at that instant!
His body stretching out, it was a straight line from the tip of the sword to his heels. His entire
person had transformed into a flying sword.
A sharp howl suddenly sounded, muffling over every other sound in the valley.
Everyone jumped and unconsciously stopped what they were doing. When they raised their
heads to look up, it was as though they were struck by lightning!
It was possible to see a figure blurred by shuttle-shaped air ripples. The air inside the entire
valley started to tremble, the fierce convulsions of the air rippled towards the ground. The ground
shook like trembling dice.
Zuo Mo had completely forgotten everything at this point. The booming of air beside his ears
causing him to be unable to hear anything. The pleasure of extreme speed caused the temperature
of his blood to increase exponentially. Uncontrollably, he gave a long howl!
Accelerate, accelerate, accelerate more!
He seemed to exercise all his ling power and strength in this short one hundred zhang. The
furious air turbulence exploded around him, the temperature also rising.

He thought of the Meteor Void Fire in the past. In the beginning, he had named it Diving from
the Sky. Later, he had learned that the name of this move was called Meteor Void Fire, a very
famous move of Dhyana xiu.
However, Zong Ru had tried many times, but could not create Void Fire.
Zuo Mo found something unique. The air turbulence around him would not scatter during his
charge. When his speed reached a certain level, he could tear apart the turbulence created from
air, and create a certain kind of suction. This suction would cause the turbulence to stay close to
his body, and form a turbulent area.
The Void Fire was birthed in this turbulent area.
Like when two hard pieces of rock collided together, it would create sparks. This turbulent area
was like an area of rock made out of pieces of stone moving against each other high speed so
sparks naturally formed.
Zuo Mos consciousness was like many tiny tentacles, accurately stirring the turbulence.
Hiss-crack!
A thread of fire shot out of the turbulence around his body. Quickly, the area of turbulence lit up
around Zuo Mos body was like wood soaked in turpentine.
More than ten threads of fire snaked their way around Zuo Mos body.
But immediately after, Zuo Mo felt an unexpected change happen.
These fire snakes seemed to have smelt blood, all of them flooding towards the sword tip of the
flying sword. The sword tip was like a powerful whirlpool, continuously consuming flames. In
the blink of an eye, all the fire around Zuo Mo was absorbed into the sword tip.
At this time, the sword tip was burning bright with a blinding red light!
In the eyes of everyone in the valley, there was a burning red light with astounding speed
drawing out a bold straight line across their vision!
All of the sword essence, all of the Void Fire was compressed in the needle-sized area of the
sword tip. Everyone was shaking in fright!
Motherf***er! Run!
It wasnt clear who first said it, but the group suddenly woke up. Instantly, wails rose. They hated
that their parents hadnt birthed them with another pair of legs. Stumbling and crawling, they
sprinted towards the sides of the valley. In the blink of an eye, the entrance that had been blocked
was cleared.
Liu Gui and the others all changed expressions!
When Shixiong reminded them not to provoke the person, they had not been concerned. Even
when they were wary of Zuo Mos Yang Fiendish Hard Lightning bolt, but that was just
wariness.
Until this sword appeared, this sword that compressed all the sword essence and explosiveness to
the extreme!
They truly felt respect and terror!
None of the seven people dared to go stop this blow. They stood at their spot like wooden
puppets, their faces raised, their mouths open as they looked dazedly at the blinding light!
This what weirdo was this!?
Their perception was better than average. The dot of red light that was compressed to the limits
made them instinctively feel a suffocating sense of danger.
The ling power and air turbulence that had been created by the fights inside the valley were now
like wild horses that had been broken and simultaneously calmed down. The shaking ground
seemed to also have detected the danger and became silent.

Other than the panicking people that were feeling, everything else in the mountain valley seemed
to freeze at this moment.
They seemed to be waiting for the conqueror to arrive!

Light flashed in Huang Zhuo Guang and Zheng Zhongs eyes. In the sky near them, a blinding
red light was at the front of a diving figure.
That dot of red light made both of them change expression.
A strange light flashed across Huang Zhuo Guangs face. He noticed the nervousness on Zheng
Zhongs face. His mind moved, and purposefully said, Hm, this person isnt weak. Is he fighting
against your shidi?
Huang Zhuo Guangs words were exactly what Zheng Zhong was worried about. However, he
trusted that his shidi would not be so impulsive and shot back, No matter. If he gets the secret
realm, its better than you getting the secret realm.
You have animosity towards me? Huang Zhuo Guang narrowed his eyes again.
Animosity? Zheng Zhong laughed coldly, Is there anyone still alive in Little Mountain Jie
that doesnt have animosity against you?
Thats true, Huang Zhuo Guang nodded. The world is like this. If you are angry, be angry that
your luck isnt good.

Zuo Mo, who had made such a ruckus and stopped the crowds, didnt have any smugness on his
face. Wrapped in the turbulence, his face was as pale as paper, his eyes terrified, his heart at his
throat.
These was only one thought left in his mind. He really had played a terrible hand!
Serene Water Sword was a water element flying sword. He was used to the [Li Water Sword
Scripture] and had picked this water element flying sword. Serene Water Sword was a good
flying sword, its entire body made from serene water, and pure in water element power.
But damn it!
The pure water element power became the most crucial threat!
There was no problem in compressing the Li water sword essence, but Zuo Mo had not expected
that the compressed sword essence would create a strong suction and absorb the Void Fire,
thereby also compressing it at the sword tip.
Now, the problem was huge!
Void Fire was an extremely volatile flame, and a flame that Zuo Mo was extremely unfamiliar
with. Water and fire could not merge in the first place. As the Void Fire entered the Serene Water
Sword, the only outcome he could think of was an explosion.
Even more, the Void Fire inside the Serene Water Sword had been compressed to its limits.
Motherf***er. Even if this thing wasnt inside the Serene Water Sword, even if it was just a drop
of water, there was only one outcome.
Boom, a loud sound, and no bones would be left remaining in a radius of thirty zhang.
Right now, there was something else that was also dangerous the sword essence that had been
highly compressed! The addition of the sword essence had kept the three factors in an exquisite

equilibrium, but it was very unstable. In other words, if Zuo Mo let go, the flying sword would
instantly explode.
Adding on the sword essence that was compressed
If this exploded, then an area fifty zhang in radius, oh no, eighty zhang in radius, not a hair
would remain!
Looking at the ground that was coming increasingly close to him, Zuo Mos face paled, his hand
trembling, crying without tears.
Save me
Translator Ramblings: This chapter is like being on the uphill part of a rollercoaster and right
before the great downhill part, the ride gets stuck.
Clear Sky Sect is doing something terrible and its head disciple is not anything good.
About Zuo Mos age I guess it takes a bit of speculation and some of Occams Razor. First,
he was lianqi fourth level when he was picked up with amnesia by the sect leader. Thats actually
pretty normal for a young person if they are not geniuses. It is also simpler to think that he is
normal rather than he was very powerful before and was weakened. Second is that we are going
by Fang Xiangs (slightly sexist) logic that males do not try to eat any pills to maintain their
youthful appearance. It might be a bit of a leap but it is plausible that Zuo Mos age has not been
disguised or changed. If changing features makes a zombie face, changing ones age through
skeleton will really make Zuo Mo a complete zombie.

Chapter Two Hundred and Seventy Four You Eat Meat, Well Drink Soup
What do I do what do I do
Zuo Mo was so panicked his innards were burning up. What presence, what scheme, all of it was
thrown away.
The howling suddenly changed in tune, from being full of killing intent to being like a rooster
that was clucking as it was being strangled, with a long after-note. The sword and person that had
been burning suddenly paused, their speed decreasing.
After a while, they were like a little bird that was too fat and couldnt fly as they swayed and
unsteadily landed on the empty ground beside the cave.
Everyone collectively turned to stone as they watched such a strange scene.
Zuo Mo released a breath. The Serene Water Sword tip was still bright red, but it was evidently
not as frightening as before. Right now, he wanted to throw this flying sword as far away as
possible, but considering that the flying sword would instantly explode if it left his control, he
could only keep a tight grip on it.
The mountain valley was deathly silent, everyone looking dazedly at Zuo Mo.
Had it been an illusion? Was this person bouncing about in front of them really the same person
that was so peerless just a moment ago?

This change was too comedic. Because it was so sudden, and the difference too large, it caused
everyone to be unable to react. This group of people stared straight at Zuo Mo, none of them
fighting.
Dissipate dissipate
Zuo Mo recited at the Serene Water Sword. His voice was very light, but since the surroundings
were too quiet, it was abnormally clear. When everyone heard it, many people wanted to roll
their eyes. The mood instantly became awkward. Everyone looked at each other but no one
moved.
The mountain valley that had been so noisy and full of fighting was abnormally peaceful and
silent.
The Void Fire and sword essence that lost pressure quickly dissipated. After a while, the burning
red tip of the Serene Water Sword also dissipated. The Serene Water Tip also resumed its normal
appearance. Zuo Mos heart finally landed back in his stomach. He felt his body relax and he sat
down on the ground.
So risky! He had almost tripped up. If he killed himself, wouldnt it be a great joke?
He was full of regret as he panted. After two breaths, he suddenly froze, it wasnt right!
Why were the surroundings so silent
He turned around, his heart slightly insecure, and saw a circle of people standing there silently as
they looked at him. A hair-raising feeling spread. He almost shrieked. However, he finally
remembered he could be considered the leader of a large group of people, swallowed, and stood
up.
You, why arent you fighting?
No one spoke. Liu Gui didnt know what to say. The chaotic situation they had put so much
effort to create had been interrupted with such a strange method. But they didnt dare jump out at
this time. This wasnt a joke. The slightly black guy in front of him was clearly stronger than
they were by a large margin, and was extremely terrifying.
They didnt know what problem Zuo Mo just had, but his power was displayed right there.
Without knowing his intentions, jumping out was akin to trying to seeking death. The other
peoples thoughts were very similar to Liu Gui. Zuo Mos half of a move had frightened
everyone.
Zuo Mo saw that no one responded to him, and instantly faltered. He turned to face the entrance
of the secret realm.
Without a call, these people flooded forward.
Zuo Mo turned in fright, What are you doing?
A voice suddenly sounded among the crowd, Big Bro, you eat the meat, but let us drink some
soup!
Yes yes!
Big Bro, you pick whats good first, and let us get some benefits!
Calls like this instantly sounded among the crowd.
Zuo Mo was dumbstruck. Liu Gui and the others were dumbstruck. No one had expected the
situation would reach such a strange step.
You bear to part with that? Zuo Mo said thoughtlessly.
Big Bro is joking. You are the strongest, its right that you pick first. The person who spoke
first saw that Zuo Mo wasnt a hard person to interact with. His courage rose and he stood out.
Right!
Thats the rationale!

Every person agreed. Liu Gui and the others didnt dare to speak. Other people might not know
what they had just done, but this person of mysterious origins knew. If they stepped forward at
this time and the other might reveal what they had just done, and they would be sliced to death.
Zuo Mo gradually calmed down, and said with slight amusement, You guys trust me this
much?
Big Bro, you didnt even look at the White Fang Sword just now. How can anything normal
enter your eyes? The man was a smart one. As to better things, we dont dare to think about
it.
Thats right, who dares to be greedy and covets Big Bros things, everyone will chop him!
Chop him!
The people all agreed. Liu Gui shook with fright. These people were all very experienced oldtimers. They knew that they, a random bunch of rabble, could not possibly get anything out of
the secret realm.
Zuo Mos heart was slightly insecure. He liked the White Fang Sword too, but he had been
thinking of the grey bird then and didnt have the time.
Ge really hadnt disregarded it
However, he quickly understood what these people were thinking.
Before, he had only thought of tripping up Huang Zhuo Guang. The present situation was way
out of his predictions.
However, he responded quickly. If thats the case, then let us work together to kill Huang Zhuo
Guang first. If we dont kill him, this secret realm wont be ours.
As Zuo Mo said this, many people instantly hesitated. They were only pursuing wealth, but
didnt want to lose their lives. The vicious reputation of Huang Zhuo Guang had long been
engraved their hearts.
The man who had just spoken said, What are we afraid of? If Huang Zhuo Guang escapes, who
among us will be able to escape the consequences in and being connected to the deaths of the
Sky Sect disciples?
Zuo Mo silently praised the person for his cleverness.
As expected, the people that had hesitated instantly started to shout, Do it!
We have this many people, we can slice him to death with one blow from each of us!
Zuo Mo threw out at a good time, Theres some good talismans on Huang Zhuo Guangs body.
Afterwards, it will depend on who has the best luck.
These words were instantly effective! Nothing was more tempting than talismans. Their courage
instantly rose. Liu Gui and the few people were joyous upon hearing this. If this expert of
mysterious skill could team up with Shixiong, Huang Zhuo Guang would have a hard time
escaping.
Big Bro, say what to do, and well do it! Liu Gui hurriedly shouted.
Zuo Mo suddenly found the situation was better than he had imagined. With this group of people,
he could more easily set it up. Even though it wasnt possible to rely on them to do something
difficult, but not all things were difficult.
As he continued to issue out orders, the people that received them were filled with puzzlement.
They could not understand at all what use the things Zuo Mo was asking them to do had.
Zuo Mo requested for most of them to continuously release sword energies and spells inside the
valley. Even though their faces were filled with puzzlement, but they still followed and released
spells and sword energies at empty areas.
The entire mountain valley became filled with all kinds of colored light.

Zuo Mo stood at the entrance to the secret realm. The secret realm entrance was a floating ball of
light. Looking at the entrance, his grasp of the situation rose. This entrance was a natural five
element formation. It wasnt hard to open, but it required using all five element powers at the
same time.
He looked at Liu Gui. Seeing Liu Gui nod, he started to rapidly send five element power towards
the entrance.
As the five element spells entered the ball of light, five colored light exploded.

In the sky, Huang Zhuo Guangs expression changed, killing intent filled in his eyes. His figure
suddenly disappeared.
This group of damned bastards!
The reason he had been so confident before was largely due to his assumption that this group
could not open the entrance. He had observed the entrance to the secret realm. It required putting
in five kinds of five element spells at the same time. It was easy to find people that were skilled
in one element or several, but it was rare to find those xiuzhe skilled in all five.
Finding five xiuzhe to cast spells at the same time was an action he had resorted to out of
helplessness. He knew that in reality, this method couldnt open the entrance to the secret realm
completely.
He didnt worry at all. No matter how many xiuzhe possessed the entrance, if the entrance wasnt
opened, then this secret realm would belong to Clear Sky Sect, no one could take it away.
So when the light flashed as the entrance was opened, he was both terrified and furious.
His figure flashed into the mountain valley, aiming for Zuo Mo. The other xiuzhe were a school
of little fish in his eyes. The reality was just as he thought. When he appeared in the mountain
valley, the xiuzhe flew into the sky like a group of alarmed birds.
Huang Zhuo Guang instantly saw Zuo Mo in front of the entrance.
My eyes had failed me. So you are skilled in all five elements. A cold light flashed in Huang
Zhuo Guangs eyes. I hadnt thought I would encounter another expert today. Such good luck.
Madman!
Zuo Mo rolled his eyes. Look at the time! He was still rambling. Without his hesitation, he raised
his hand for a Yang Fiendish Hard Lightning bolt! Yang Fiendish Hard Lightning was the move
of [Little Thousand Leaf Hands] that he was most familiar with. At present, he almost didnt
have to think and could cast it.
Hard lightning? Huang Zhuo Guang was slightly surprised but he was not shocked. Just this
thing, and you dare to attack me?
Zuo Mo suddenly sent out a bolt of Yang Fiendish Hard Lightning with his right palm. With a
hiss, it seemed to strike something invisible. Huang Zhuo Guang finally had a shocked
expression.
How was it possible? How could this guy so easily find his sword energy?
His Clear Sky sword energy was invisible and intangible, extremely hard to detect.
Zuo Mo didnt feel anything Speaking of invisibility and intangibility, there probably was no
sword energy that could compare to the [Void Sword Scripture] that Wei Sheng Shixiong
cultivated.
While Huang Zhuo Guangs Sky sword essence was also invisible and intangible, but these
qualities were not outstanding. The reason that people continuously were defeated by Huang

Zhuo Guang was that his sword essence was too ethereal and hard to find, but Zuo Mo had an
exceptional consciousness and ling eyes so these qualities were not scary.
At this time, Zheng Zhong also appeared behind Huang Zhuo Guang.
Liu Gui and the other six appeared at same time, the eight people forming a complete circle. Zuo
Mo reversed and retreated.
A smirk appeared at the corner of Huang Zhuo Guangs mouth, gang fighting?
What they probably didnt know was that he was the least afraid of gang fighting! The more
people there were, the more power his sword scripture could release.
Stupid!
He decided to let these ignorant people see just how wrong they were.
Just as he was going to attack, the smirk at his mouth suddenly froze.
Translator Ramblings: I find it amusing how Zuo Mo scorns Huang Zhuo Guangs inexperience
in combat since he really doesnt too much combat experience himself. Though I am not sure
how much combat experience makes a person experienced. Is it two tournaments, five lifethreatening battles, or can everyone call themselves battle-hardened if they have fought?
Poor Huang Zhuo Guang, he had to encounter a young ling plant farmer that knows all the
required five element spells.

and Seventy Five Circle Kill
This chapter has been brought to you by me, and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter Two Hundred and Seventy Five Circle Kill
When Huang Zhuo Guang suddenly appeared, the space surrounding him became chaotic.
Countless ling power flows, countless air turbulence flows. The small mountain valley was like
an area of turbulence.
What was most terrible was
He didnt need to raise his head to know that his connection with the sky had been cut off. In a
flash, he realized, a trap! This was a trap that had been prepared for him!
The ling power of the mountain valley randomly flew and collided in an unstable state. Some
scenes that he had disregarded before flowed through his mind. Coldness rose through his heart.
The group of xiuzhe that had panicked and rose when he entered the mountain valley had looked
like a group of birds startled by an engle, so helpless, so weak, so alarmed.
But now, he realized that this group of pitifully weak people had used ling power and turbulence
to create a net above the mountain valley without him noticing, a net blocking him from the sky!
He was separated from the sky!
Such a poisonous trap! Some admiration rose. This group seemed like a rabble, and was low on
battle capabilities. It really was admirable that the other could think of such a great idea, and
execute it effectively.
His gaze landed on Zuo Mo who was guarding the entrance to the secret realm
So this person was actually the most powerful of the bunch!
Huang Zhuo Guangs eyes narrowed for the second time. Facing a predicament, after the initial
shock, he wasnt afraid. Quite the opposite. His desire for battle was instantly ignited. He felt the
temperature of his body continuously increase.
There never had been someone that could force him to such a predicament! To such a sorry state!
Without the sky, you dare to challenge me?

Huang Zhuo Guangs eyes brightened, the flying sword in his hand suddenly sweeping up. A
strong presence expanded. The fine turbulence around him instantly cleared.
Zheng Zhong and the others did not hesitate in stepping forward.
This was also the reason Zuo Mo had retreated. Zheng Zhong and his group could work together.
If he was in the middle, he would actually disrupt their cooperative battle capabilities. It was
better to withdraw and wait for an opportunity.
The area of the mountain valley was narrow and small. In this kind of battle, what people
competed on were their reaction times, little techniques, and talismans.
Huang Zhuo Guang had never experienced this kind of battle before, but he did not fear it. His
body was entirely covered in fourth-grade talismans!
The ling armor on his body was a fourth-grade earth element ling armor, one of the finest pieces
produced by Clear Sky Sect, called Dusty Sky Ling Armor. It was made from Sky Soil. Out of
affection for him, Clear Sky Old Forefather had added three grains of Sky Sand into it. This
caused the grade of the ling armor to increase greatly, especially its formations. Clear Sky Old
Forefather even used the Nine Turn Sky Soil Disk to copy formations that gave it the ability to
defend and attack enemies.
There was a layer of sand mist that continuously wrapped around Huang Zhuo Guangs body.
One shouldnt underestimate these sand mists. They could easily break second-grade flying
swords, and the most damaging ability was that it could always corrode the other.
Dusty Sky Ling Armor was definitely a great weapon for close combat!
People usually could not see his flying sword because it would always be hidden in the sky. The
flying sword forged from the essence of cloud soul [Sky Inquirer] was like an invisible flow of
water silently spinning above Huang Zhuo Guangs head.
Even the jade pendant on his body and the hair tie were also not ordinary, all high level items.
Zheng Zhong and the others instantly looked much poorer when compared to him. Other than the
silver snowy flying sword in Zheng Zhongs hand that was low fourth-grade, all that the other
people had were third-grade.
Zuo Mo had to shake his head on the inside. It seemed that they didnt have an easy time
surviving.
Fourth-grade talismans were extremely expensive. For example, Zuo Mos Thunder Flowing
Light Wings were intermediate fourth-grade, and cost him sixty pieces of fourth-grade jingshi. It
had to be said that one piece of fourth-grade jingshi was equivalent to five hundred pieces of
third-grade jingshi. In other words, this talisman required thirty thousand pieces of third-grade
jingshi.
This price was not something that normal people could tolerate.
Zuo Mo had won many things in Little Mountain Jie, enough talismans to make a small
mountain, but the number of fourth-grade talismans could be counted on his fingers. In the
present Little Mountain Jie, third-grade talismans were the mainstream armaments. Fourth-grade
talismans were all on the hands of the experts. As to talismans like the Nine Turn Sky Soil Disk,
even if you had one, you didnt dare to use it.
Of the many talismans, fourth-grade flying swords were the rarest, and the most welcome. There
was no way about it, Little Mountain Jies xiuzhe were mostly sword xiu.
Zuo Mo unconsciously inventoried his own wealth and found to his surprise that he had some
assets.
But things like the Thunder Flowing Light Wings, Seven Star Sword Boots, they were mostly
things that he bought using jingshi he earned from selling Golden Crow Fire.

Seeing the difference in talismans between the two sides, Zuo Mo knew it would not be an easy
fight.
The reason the price between fourth-grade and third-grade talismans was so large was that, other
than the materials being rarer and the abilities more outstanding, there was another area,
formations.
Fourth-grade talismans frequently would have their own formation techniques. The sand mist
that the Dusty Sky Ling Armor exuded was a formation combat technique called [Mist Kill]. The
formation combat technique of Zuo Mos Seven Star Sword Boots were more unique. That was a
sword formation.
The majority of fourth-grade talismans had formation combat techniques, it was rare that they
did not have them, like the Thunder Flowing Light Wings. This kind of talismans that did not
have formation combat techniques were able to qualify to fourth-grade due to one reason. It was
that one of its attributes was too strong, like the speed of the Thunder Flowing Light Wings.
A good talisman in the hands of a novice was just a pile of scrap metal, but in the hands of an
expert, it could be wielded to its greatest potential.
And if an expert was covered in good talismans?
Zuo Mo started to have a headache. The situation kept on changing unexpectedly. At the start, his
plan hadnt changed very much. He had planned on using [Little Thousand Leaf Hands] to mess
up the turbulence even more. He hadnt expected these people to be willing to listen to him. The
plan had been even more perfect.
But now he found, no matter how much they planned, Huang Zhuo Guang was not suppressed
like he had imagined.
Huang Zhuo Guang did not fear being surrounded and attacked. The formation combat technique
of his ling armor, [Mist Kill], at full power, his entire person seemed like a person-shaped meat
grinder, unreasonably charging and smashing about!
The Double Tiger Eye Boots on his feet were not average. Each time he stepped on the ground,
the earth trembled.
It had the same abilities as Zuo Mos Ten Thousand Appearances Gloves.
If the other showed the slightest weakness, the flying sword above his head would suddenly
strike. If it wasnt for the fact that Zheng Zhong and his fellows cooperated well, many of them
would already have been killed.
As Huang Zhuo Guang became familiar with this kind of combat, he responded with greater
ease.
His feet suddenly shoving off, he was like a cannonball shot out of a cannon, smashing towards
Liu Gui with astonishing speed. Liu Gui was very shocked, the flying sword stabbing multiple
times in front of him, and a sword curtain appeared in front.
But he suddenly tapped the ground on the way, his figure changing directions and leapt at
someone else
That person had been trying to go up to help Liu Gui, and didnt expect Huang Zhuo Guang to
suddenly turn around. He didnt have the time to respond, and Huang Zhuo Guang had charged
in front of him. Terror rose in his eyes.
Just as he was about to be ground by the sand mist, a snow sword light stabbed at Huang Zhuo
Guang
Zheng Zhongs attack was perfectly timed. Huang Zhuo Guang was still very wary of Zheng
Zhong He swerved and flashed past the sword light. Before Zheng Zhong could sigh in relief, a
spark suddenly appeared above the shidis head, a flying sword flashing and disappearing.

Huang Zhuo Guangs gaze suddenly landed on Zuo Mos body. He hadnt expected Zuo Mo was
able to detect his well-concealed attack.
Zuo Mo shook his head as he kept on watching. This cooperation between this group was much
worse than Lil Miss groups. It was far less than what he predicted. Out of helplessness, he
could only shout, Everyone else to the sky, let Brother Zheng deal with him.
Liu Gui and the others had hesitant expressions. Zheng Zhong unhesitatingly said, Listen to
him!
The other people flew into the sky, emptying out the mountain valley. Only Zuo Mo and Zheng
Zhong were left to face Huang Zhuo Guang. Huang Zhuo Guangs confidence had grown as he
fought. He laughed, Both of you can come together!
Zuo Mo was not affected, Old Zheng, use your flying sword.
Before he finished, a layer of light suddenly covered his eyes. Ling eye! He raised his hands for a
bolt of Yang Fiendish Hard Lightning. His target was not Huang Zhuo Guang, but the space
above Huang Zhuo Guang.
Hiss-crack!
A flying sword revealed its true form, countless lightning arcs flashing on its body. With a
sorrowful wail, it trembled.
You dare to damage my flying sword! Huang Zhuo Guang was enraged and tried to charge at
Zuo Mo.
Zheng Zhong instantly understood what Zuo Mo had planned. His wrist shook, and several silver
snowy white sword energies lit up and pushed Huang Zhuo Guang back. Zheng Zhongs flying
sword was also fourth-grade so he did not fear the sand mist of Huang Zhuo Guangs ling armor.
Since the mountain valley was now empty, he did not have to worry about accidentally wounding
his fellows. The sword lights flew from his hand.
In close combat, controlling the sword from the distance was not as good as holding the sword.
Huang Zhuo Guang cut a sorry figure, as he was dodging the sword energies and call back [Sky
Inquirer].
Zuo Mo didnt care and continued to smash Yang Fiendish Hard Lightning towards Huang Zhuo
Guangs unique flying sword like they didnt cost jingshi!
The Sky Inquirer sword was made from the essence of cloud souls. It was both water element
and yin. Something like Yang Fiendish Hard Lightning, which was both yang and hard, was its
natural enemy. After suffering twenty bolts, it finally stopped trembling, and slammed to the
ground like a piece of ordinary metal and stayed there
Anyone with some knowledge knew that this flying sword was now ruined. Many of the xiuzhe
who saw this from the air all sighed. Such a good flying sword! It had been fourth-grade! Ruined
like this
His beloved sword ruined, Huang Zhuo Guang was completely enraged. The hair tie suddenly
exploded, his hair standing on end.
His eyes were red as he gave a sky shaking bellow, Die!
All the ling power in his body moved. He was like a lion that had lost all reason as he charged at
Zuo Mo. Pia pia pia! Several sword energies hit his body. He ignored them all, still charging at
Zuo Mo.
Boom, the Dusty Sky Ling Armor shattered to pieces, the sand mist instantly disappearing.
But in that instant, the crazy Huang Zhuo Guang had arrived in front of Zuo Mo.

What welcomed him was a fist as exquisite as glass. Even though he was furious, Huang Zhuo
Guang still had some rationality. The fingers on his right hand coming together to form sword
essence!
Without a flying sword, the danger of the sword essence was many times lower. He had to send
out seven sword essences in a row to destroy this glass fist.
The distance between the two was now only three zhang!
The bloody light in Huang Zhuo Guangs eyes grew. His left foot pushing off hard, he was like
an arrow released from the bow, his right leg kicking towards Zuo Mo!
At the tip of his foot, a double-eyes white tiger had suddenly appeared with a howl.
Double Eyed Tiger Head Boot, formation combat technique [Tiger Howl]!
A fist covered in countless lights imprinted itself without technique on the forehead of this white
tiger.
Translator Ramblings: A description of talismans and the grade system which I personally think
should have come way earlier, possibly when Lil Pagoda was bought way back in Sky Moon
Jie.
Huang Zhuo Guang is even more of a fat sheep than the people of Ling Ying Sect. If this was in
the past, Zuo Mo would have gone into a rage at damaging such an expensive talismans.

Chapter Two Hundred and Seventy Six An Unparalleled Good Bird
Sky Glass Wave!
The light around the arms crashed inside the tiger head with this punch. At the same time,
countless formations on the surface of the glove seemed to come alive, and flew quickly.
A fourteen revolution Sky Glass Wave, adding on the formation combat technique of the Ten
Thousand Appearance Gloves, [Ten Thousand Elephants]!
Peew!
The vicious tiger head seemed to pop like a bubble. The sound was very small and did not seem
like the collision that was imagined.
Huang Zhuo Guangs vicious and twisted face suddenly froze.
The white tiger disappeared. That punch landed on his leg.
Boom!
The enormous sound made peoples heart jump uncontrollably.
Half of Huang Zhuo Guangs body suddenly exploded, flesh and blood blooming like a goddess
spreading flowers.
Everyones breathing stopped. Their movements unconsciously stopped as they stared dazedly at
the blood mist in the air, their minds blank. Zheng Zhong who had been going up to help support
Zuo Mo had lowered his guard and was sprayed directly by this bloody rain. Even though he was
used to life and death, his face was pale from fright
Half of Huang Zhuo Guangs body had disappeared, his expression frozen there

Zuo Mo sighed in relief, and panted rapidly. That moment had been very risky. Huang Zhuo
Guangs speed was faster than he had expected. He had only had the time for fourteen
revolutions. Luckily, he had the Ten Thousand Appearances Gloves. Otherwise, his little life
would have ended here.
The power of the Ten Thousand Appearances Gloves were stronger than he assumed. Of the
fourth-grade talismans, the Ten Thousand Appearances Gloves were relatively cheap because its
formation technique, [Ten Thousand Elephants], increased physical strength and could only be
used in close combat.
Most of the battles between xiuzhe happened in the sky. Close physical battle was extremely are.
If its formation technique was something like fist energies and could deliver long-distance
attacks, then its price would shoot up
He looked at Huang Zhuo Guang who only had half a body left. There was no breath there. Zuo
Mo had to admire how tough this guy had been. If it wasnt for the fact that he was prepared, and
the other was not, he and the other people might not have been able to kill him.
Zuo Mo had learned many things from this fight.
First, this fight showed that no matter how strong the spell or the individuals strength, they
could not defend against scheming. In reality, Huang Zhuo Guang was strong, the sword
scripture he cultivated was strong. Most xiuzhe battled in the skies, and was the place his sword
essence was most powerful.
This sword scripture was really powerful!
But even the strongest sword essence could be stopped if its weakness was found
The second point had strengthened Zuo Mos desire to take his spoils. The other had been so
strong even when attacked at his weakness, it was all due to support from his talismans!
Truthfully, if he hadnt been here today, Zheng Zhong and the others wouldnt have been able to
trap him.
At important times, talismans could save lives.
Even though the scene was slightly bloody, it could not stop Zuo Mos decision to scalp.
However, he only picked one thing this time [Clear Sky Sword Scripture].
When he held it, Zuo Mo knew he made a profit. He didnt plan on cultivating this [Clear Sky
Sword Scripture]. Right now, there were too many things he had to practice. Reality showed that
his talent in the consciousness and body cultivation were stronger. Adding on that he had to study
formations, he wanted to cut himself in half.
After discovering that [Clear Sky Sword Scripture] was suitable for aerial battle, he thought of
Lil Miss subordinates. If they could cultivate this, then that power, hee hee
At the very least, a complete fifth-grade sword scripture could sell for a high price
Nothing was left on Huang Zhuo Guangs body, not even the remaining Double Eyed Tiger Head
Boot. Other than Zheng Zhong who picked an item ,the rest were divided among the people.
There were more people than talismans, so everyone looked at Zuo Mo. Luckily, Zuo Mo was
used to being a leader and used the simplest method, drawing straws.
Everyone had an equal chance. The people who got it were happy, the people who didnt could
only sigh at their bad luck.
The other people had even more respect for Zuo Mo. Zuo Mos punch that killed Huang Zhuo
Guang had frightened them half to death. That was Huang Zhuo Guang! In their hearts, Zuo
Mos strength had reached a level they could not comprehend, and Zuo Mo was fair. He wasnt
like other leaders that took everything.
Everyone could respect this kind of person.

Zuo Mo saw them look at him, and was clear to their thoughts. He said, Since you all want to
enter the formation, then let me first say the rules. If there is danger, I am not responsible for
saving you. You have to think of ways to protect yourselves. The division will be like just now.
Everyone instantly became cheerful. They had never entered a secret realm before.
Zuo Mo slowly scanned over everyone and said in a deep voice, Ill say the ugly things first.
Dont blame me for being rude if any of you cause trouble.
Finishing, he didnt look at the people behind him, turned, and entered the secret realm.
The scenery in front of him suddenly change, but it made him freeze where he stood. Zheng
Zhong who followed behind him turned to stone instantly. Every person who came in afterwards
had dazed expressions.
This this secret realm was really too small!
The scene in front of them could be encompassed within their field of view. It was a place the
size of a yard, only ten zhang in radius. In the middle, there was a sweetly sleeping grey bird.
There was nothing else in the area. Other than the ling energy slightly dense than the outside,
there was nothing.
Zheng Zhong said in a low voice, This should be a secret realm that just formed.
He saw that Zuo Mo was still frozen there and assumed that Zuo Mo was very disappointed so he
hurriedly explained. He had great admiration for Zuo Mo. Even though the other was much
younger than he was, not in terms of moves and aura, he could not catch up. He had seen many
of the leaders in Little Mountain Jie, and no one could rival this youth
That grey bird was sleeping well, a string of saliva hanging from its mouth. Due to the small
space, it was possible to hear the rise and fall of its snores.
The anger instantly flamed up in Zuo Mos heart, his expression instantly becoming twisted and
frightening Zheng Zhong and the others.
Zuo Mo darted forward and, pia, slapped Silly Birds head, the feathers flying!
Silly Bird opened her eyes dazedly.
You idiot, ge nearly died to find you, had to fight other people, and killed all the way over here.
Youre great, had a nice sleep! Ah-ha!
Pia!
Another slap.
Eat eat eat! You glutton! You ate so much! Got into trouble! Will you die if you dont eat?! Im
telling you that from today onwards, you cant eat anything
Zuo Mos swearing stunned the group of people. They were puzzled. What were the origins of
this grey bird. Zuo Mo hadnt been this angry even when he was facing Huang Zhuo Guang!
Just as Zuo Mos saliva flew, Silly Bird resumed clarity. It slowly stood up, methodically
preening the feathers on its body, not even looking at Zuo Mo straight through the entire process.
The people in the surroundings were stunned again.
Zuo Mo saw the bird still had a proud expression as though she had no regret, and anger rose. He
suddenly grabbed Silly Bird.
This bird just lacked discipline! Ge will educate her.
Unexpectedly, the grey shadow in front of him flashed, and his grasp was empty.
Hm!
In another corner, Silly Bird looked at Zuo Mo out of the corner of her eyes with a gaze that was
as proud as usual.
Zuo Mo shouted in fury, Great! If ge doesnt discipline you today, you dont know how high the
sky is, how wide the earth is!

Zuo Mos body flashed. Before he could reach out, an astoundingly fast grey shadow brushed
past him.
So fast!
Zuo Mo paused, his hand coming up empty again
In another corner, Silly Bird raised her head, still stepping her unique bird walk as she walked
gracefully towards the crowd
Clank!
The people that were completely amazed by Silly Bird unconsciously stepped back to form a
path
Silly Bird was not courteous, calmly walking towards the entrance.
Was what just happened a delusion? Zuo Mo wasnt sure. Had this bird gotten some benefits this
time? He looked at the empty and bare secret realm. He felt it was increasingly likely. This bird
was a glutton. All the good things probably ended up in her stomach. This could not stand. He
had to interrogate her when they got back.
Zheng Zhongs expression changed slightly. Of the crowd, his cultivation was the highest. He
had seen that scene clearly just now. That grey bird was almost impossibly fast. He clearly saw
that when Zuo Mo moved, it had brushed past Zuo Mo and passed to the other side.
What did that mean?
It meant that the grey birds speed was many times faster than Zuo Mo! Zheng Zhongs
cultivation was higher than Zuo Mo, but there wasnt a great difference in speed between the two
of them. Multiple times faster than Zuo Mo, meant it was multiple times faster than him!
Zheng Zhong felt he was going insane.
Heavens! What world was this, how could so many weirdos come out?
He already felt the next generation was terrifying due to Zuo Mos strength. Now there was a
bird that was multiple times faster than he was! Zheng Zhong didnt dare to even think about
what other abilities this grey bird had. Just its lightning fast speed was enough for it to be
undefeatable.
Completely speechless, Zheng Zhong felt even more curious about Zuo Mos identity.
So young and such power, with such a strong ling beast, he definitely wasnt an average xiuzhe.
Was it a disciple of a large sect? He felt that it was plausible. He always believed that what Clear
Sky Sect was doing to Little Mountain Jie could not continue for long.
The reason was very simple. Kun Lun certainly would allow such a matter to occur within its
borders!
When he had been young, he had interacted with a Kun Lun disciple, and it left a deep
impression on him.
Zuo Mo had faced Huang Zhuo Guang and didnt hesistate in killing the other. Any factions that
existed in Little Mountain Jie wouldnt be so impulsive.
Young, of incomprehensible strength, a strong ling beast, and not afraid of Clear Sky Sect
seeking revenge.
With all these conditions added together, Zheng Zhong increasingly felt that Zuo Mo could
possibly be a disciple of Kun Lun. Oh, even if he wasnt, he was at least the disciple of a large
sect.
Just as Zheng Zhong was thinking hard, Zuo Mo had ran out of the secret realm.
The others still searched in the secret realm due to dissatisfaction, wanting to plow the ground
three chi deep, but still did not find anything

Zheng Zhong was cunning and tightly followed Zuo Mo. He already made the decision to follow
Zuo Mo. If Zuo Mo was a disciple of a certain big sect, then they wouldnt lose if they followed.
If Zuo Mo wasnt a disciple of some large sect, and relied on himself to get to this step, then he
was a monster.
Having made the decision, his face was full of smiles. Once a persons attitude changed, their
feeling when they looked at something was completely different. The more he looked, the more
he felt that Silly Bird had an aura and mannerisms.
Good bird! An unparalleled good bird!
Translator Ramblings: Zuo Mo cleans out Huang Zhuo Guang and Silly Bird cleans out the
secret realm. Someone commented and guessed this in one of the previous chapters but I cannot
remember who you are. Silly Bird truly learned everything Zuo Mo knows.
Silly Bird has levelled up. Not humanoid right now, sorry to disappoint those of you who wanted
that to happen. But why be human? Birds can fly faster, they have sharp beaks and claws.
Theres advantages to being a bird and Im not seeing the benefit of a humanoid shape.
Zheng Zhong gives his viewpoint of Zuo Mo. I do think he is over-thinking it but hes still quite
perceptive.

Chapter Two Hundred and Seventy Seven Detection
Wu Kong Mountain.
Mu Xi suddenly stood up, What? Stars in Daytime appeared in Little Mountain Jie?
Yes, Daren! the middle-aged person responded. He was somewhat puzzled. But we clearly
had searched on our way here. It isnt possible.
Mu Xi waved her hand. That isnt a mystery. If this daren does not want to meet us, they
naturally will have ways to avoid our scans.
She sank into thought. After a while, she raised her head. It isnt a coincidence that Stars in
Daytime happened here and in Little Mountain Jie. Search to see if there is anyone from Wu
Kong Sword Sect that has not moved to Bright Wave Jie. Use every resource we have, and notify
the other daren to look into this matter. Also, tell our scouts in Little Mountain Jie pay attention
to the xiuzhe that moved to Little Mountain Jie from Sky Moon Jie, especially those that had
previously been Wu Kong Sword Sect disciples.
The middle aged person said, We didnt leave enough people in Little Mountain Jie.
Then send more, Mu Xi said decisively. Send a three hundred man troop immediately to
Little Mountain Jie for this matter. This information shall be immediately reported to the Elder
Council. Urge that the supporting troops should advance and quickly take over Little Mountain
Jie.
Yes! The middle-aged person said cleanly.

Not long after, a yao troop of three hundred people hurriedly flew away. The mood of Wu Kong
Mountain became tense.

However, even Mu Xi would never have thought there was a group of people hiding in the
mountain beneath her feet.
Theyve started to move. A three-hundred strong troop. Looking at the direction, they seem to
be going to Little Mountain jie. A young person with sharp brows said.
In front of him was Lin Qian. There was a person standing beside Lin Qian, it was Wei Sheng.
Little Mountain Jie? A pondering expression flashed through Lin Qians eyes. Did they find
something in Little Mountain Jie? Brother Wei, how many shidi do you have in Little Mountain
Jie?
Wei Shengs brows furrowed slightly, but he truthfully answered, Only Zuo Shidi and the
others.
Had my eyes failed me? Lin Qian muttered to himself.
Wei Sheng did not reply. The mood instantly became slightly awkward. They were currently in
the sword cave Wei Sheng had trained in before. He was very familiar with the place. No one
would have thought that there was an elite force hidden in here.
This was the strongest troop that Wei Sheng had ever seen! They were well-trained, and had
great endurance. What shocked him the most was their individual strengths. Most of them were
of similar age to him, no older than sixty years old, and all of them had ningmai cultivation, each
just slightly weaker than him, and about the same as Luo Li Shidi. In a slightly smaller sect, this
kind of cultivation was enough to become a core disciple, but here, they were just average
members.
Eight hundred people. He could not think how powerful this faction was to have gathered such a
strong force!
Lin Qians identity became even more mysterious in his mind. It was clear these people
respected Lin Qian from the bottom of their hearts. He was certain that if Lin Qian encountered
danger, every person here, except himself, would be willing to give up their lives to defend him.
But no matter how much power Lin Qian had, Wei Sheng still did not like him. Because Lin
Qian was suspicious of Wu Kong Sword Sect. Even though the sect had already migrated and
settled down in Bright Wave Jie, Wei Sheng was filled with deep attachment towards everything
of Wu Kong Mountain.
On the matter of Zuo Shidis disappearance, he maintained his silence. He had a deep bond with
Zuo Mo. He could understand the sects actions, but he could not completely accept them.
Presently the sect was much larger than before, but the flavor had changed. Not just him, even
Luo Li and Xiao Guo maintained their silence.
The Desolate Wood Reef had received a destructive attack from the yao army. The chance that
Shidi was still alive was small.
He wasnt willing to take Lin Qian and his group to hide in the sword cave, but due to the sect
leaders orders, he carried it out. He decided to just observe. He was familiar with every place in
Wu Kong Sword Sect, and never found any place that was unusual. Yet what he hadnt expected
was that the yao army had come to Wu Kong Mountain and established their base here.
His head was lowered as he thought. He suddenly felt that if it really was Zuo Shidi and the
others that were the problem, it wasnt a bad matter. At least, it meant that Zuo Shidi was still
alive. Thinking about that, his brow relaxed.

In a secret realm in Sky Moon Jie, Bo Feng listened to the report of his subordinate and said
heavily, Little Mountain Jie?
After a while, he shook his head, Lets just observe.

Zuo Mo was very depressed, extremely depressed. Silly Bird was extremely fast now, flying
close and far away. Her eyes undoubtedly showed the attitude of an ungenerous person who had
become powerful.
Showing off, boldly showing off!
Zuo Mo gritted his teeth. He had thought many times of raising his hand to throw bolts of Yang
Fiendish Hard Lightning at Silly Bird. He really saw the bird clearly. Usually, she was a proud
show-off. Now she was even more so with the support of her faster speed.
This could not be tolerated!
Before he could think of an idea, he heard Zheng Zhong praise from beside him, This bird is
really wonderful! As fast as lightning, it is rare to see, really rare to see!
Liu Gui and the others agreed.
Zuo Mo almost spat blood upon hearing it. He glanced and saw the smugness in Silly Birds eyes
had increased, the grey feathers at her tail rising towards the sky.
Ge finally knows why you guys have had such a hard time, you dont have good eyes!
Zuo Mo ignored them. There were eighteen xiuzhe that decided to follow him. The others chose
to leave. Zuo Mo didnt try to get them to stay. Of this group, other than Zheng Zhong who he
felt had some skill, the strengths of the other people were just average.
Without him realizing it, his eyes had become much picker.
He had felt this especially clearly in the fight this time. If it was the batch of people that Lil Miss
had trained, if he had had one platoon, then he had the confidence to kill Huang Zhuo Guang.
If this group met a group from Vermillion Bird Camp, one on one, the two sides would be fight
to a stalemate. Five versus five, Vermillion Bird Camp would win. Ten versus ten, there was no
meaning. One hundred versus one hundred, Vermillion Bird Camp wouldnt even have one
fatality.
He heard that Vermillion Bird Camp was trying out new battle tactics now, and he felt
anticipation. Gongsun Shidi had settled into his role even more, and became even more
outstanding.
The female xiu flew silently beside him, Zheng Zhong and the others felt she was slightly
strange, but held no fear towards her. Yet Silly Bird was extremely afraid of the female xiu. Even
though she continuously came up to Zuo Mo to show off, she didnt dare go near the female xiu.
Zuo Mo glanced at the female xiu and sighed. Even though it looked as though she was fine, but
in reality, her body had been severely wounded this time.
When he got to the mountain cave, the female xiu was still meditating. He took the chance to
inspect her body, and found a strange situation. Her body was even more damaged, but the
strange purple power inside her body had become even greater.
This was a situation that Zuo Mo felt he could not understand.
This purple power was like a net trapping every part of her body. Her body had already become
split into pieces. The only reason she had not collapsed was due to this purple power. However,
Zuo Mo also found the more damaged her body was, the stronger this purple power was, and the
tighter it enveloped her.

An evil skill!
Other than these two words, Zuo Mo had no other words to describe it.
Boss, wheres our territory? Liu Gui carefully asked.
Sky Star Peak, Zuo Mo carelessly responded.
Liu Gui jumped in fright. Sky Star Peak? There are many factions in that area!
Oh. Still thinking of the female xiu Zuo Mo was unconcerned. Not anymore.
Liu Guis heart steadied. Looking at it now, Boss faction likely wasnt small. He usually had
many avenues of information, and had interacted with some of the factions of Sky Star Peak in
the past. He hadnt expected that Boss had swept all of them clean.
In Little Mountain Jie, there was nothing more assuring than entering a powerful faction.
Liu Gui snicked and said, Little Mountain Jie is somewhat chaotic. I heard that Nan Sheng
Village was torn to pieces. Now that we killed Huang Zhuo Guang, Clear Sky Sect is going to be
angry. People really are brave these days, they even dare to attack Nan Sheng Village. Tsk tsk, so
powerful! So great!
Liu Gui smacked his lips, admiration on his face. The other people also felt the same.
Zuo Mo made a sound of confirmation and said, You dont need to admire them, we did it.
The surroundings instantly became deathly silent.
Liu Gui was so frightened he almost dropped from the sky. He then looked at the others. All of
them had gaping mouths as they looked dazedly at Zuo Mo.
Zuo Mo looked strangely at them. Whats with your expressions? Nan Sheng Village isnt as
hard to attack as you imagine.
All of the people, including Zheng Zhong, could not pull themselves out of their shock.
Zheng Zhong responded the fastest. At the beginning, he had thought that Zuo Mo was a disciple
of a large sect. This seemed to prove his speculation. In Little Mountain Jie, no one had ever
been willing to oppose Clear Sky Sect this openly.
Suddenly, a crowd of black dots appeared on the horizon.
The little black dots flew extremely quickly. After a while, they were twenty li away. They
finally saw them. It was a group of about twenty people.
Zheng Zhongs heart jumped, shock flashing through his eyes. He shouted loudly, Everyone, on
your guard!
The group of twenty or so xiuzhe flew extremely quickly, but what shocked Zheng Zhong the
most was the formation of their troop! Flying at such high speed, the troops formation had not
changed, like a sharp blade breaking through the ice. From far away, he could feel a sharp
presence hitting him in the face!
They were flying straight at them!
Zheng Zhongs expression changed again!
In his eyes, the twenty people seemed like one body. Their energy, breathing, and ling power
were so well attuned that there was no flaw!
Everyone felt they had dropped into a crevasse. Without even needing to fight, their confidence
was destroyed. The other came as fast as lightning without any intentions of concealing
themselves. The howls in the air roared in waves like thunder, the target was clearly them!
Some of the xiuzhe paled from fright and scattered to escape.
Zuo Mos expression suddenly turned dark.
However, only five xiuzhe had fled. The remaining thirteen people were still by his side.
So powerful!

Zheng Zhongs heart leapt wildly. He forcibly suppressed the terror in his heart. He was a third
stratum ningmai xiuzhe but facing the charge of these twenty people, instinctive terror rose.
However, he still moved in front of Zuo Mo. He couldnt defeat this crowd, but he would do his
best to protect Zuo Mo and escape with him.
Unexpectedly, the twenty people suddenly decelerated, making a immediate stop in front of
them.
Boss! the person at the fount shouted with joy.
Zheng Zhong felt he had gone from hell to heaven in an instant. Before they could be happy, they
heard Zuo Mos deep and murderous voice.
Those five, execute.
Translator Ramblings: It is my personal theory that Fang Xiang was in a different mood the day
he wrote this chapter because this one has such a different and heavy tone compared to the one
yesterday. Last chapter was all humorous and light-hearted, look at Silly Bird who is prancing
about and refuses to obey Zuo Mo! Today is a reminder many people are after Zuo Mo and either
want to find him, capture him, or possibly kill him.
The yao are moving back towards Little Mountain Jie think how much effort they could
have saved if they took over Little Mountain Jie the first time they invaded rather than
prioritizing getting to Sky Moon Jie as fast as possible. However, their priorities were actually
correct. Who would have thought that Zuo Mo would coincidentally be sent away from the sect,
land in the place closest to the jie river, and manage to slip right under them when they reached
their destination?
Also, plot wise, this chapter has more development than the last ten chapters combined. Im not
sure if Fang Xiang just decided it was better to put it all together so it was easy to write, or if he
forgot it and the readers wanted to know what was happening elsewhere.

World of Cultivation Chaper Two Hundred


and Seventy Eight The Insane Outer Hall
This chapter has been brought to you by me, and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter Two Hundred and Seventy Eight The Insane Outer Hall
Wei Cheng Bins mood was very good these past two days because Boss had returned. It wasnt
only him. Every person he passed on his way also had a sunny smile on their faces. It was
strange. No matter if it was individual power, or skill in command, Boss wasnt the strongest, but
he was every persons pillar of support.
The few days that Boss had been absent, every person in Golden Crow City had been very
worried, like they had lost their souls.
Wei Cheng Bin knew that with Gongsun daren present, nothing would happen to Golden Crow
City. But there was still a layer of darkness that uncontrollably came over his heart. Fortunately,
Boss had returned, the dark cloud over their hearts had dissipated. Every person in the city
believed that as long as Boss was here, any problem would be easily solved.
In this recent while, his forging skill had furiously grew, especially in forging small parts. Even
Master Ji Wei would praise him occasionally. In a short amount of time, he formed an affection
for this place. The forging masters he usually interacted with, especially Masters Ji Wei and Sun
Bao, all were very skilled, took good care of him, and never skimped on guidance.
The only person he didnt like interacting with was Bao Yi.

That slender bamboo stick was very miserly. It took a lot of effort to get some materials from his
hands.
Even Masters Sun Bao and Ji Wei didnt like interacting with Bao Yi so the burden had landed
on his head. With no other way, he could only force himself. Each transaction was a fierce and
terrible battle!
But today, Bao Yi was unusually easy-going. It seemed that even the thin bamboo stick had a
good mood now that Boss was back.

In contrast to Golden Crow Citys happy mood, the faces of everyone in the Outer Hall was
deathly.
What? Huang Daren was killed? He Xiangs lips were trembling, his hands cold.
The news has already spread. The xiuzhe that found the news also had a trembling note in his
voice. Huang daren and the others went to search for a secret realm. Others schemed, and he
was killed by multiple opponents.
Impossible! He Xiang said sternly, How could Huang daren be killed by many people so
easily? Wheres the other people with him?
All all killed! In total, more than twenty inner sect disciples
Bang, He Xiangs legs weakened and he collapsed on the chair, his face filled with hopelessness.
Every elder present had faces so pale there was no blood.
Everyone understood that the affair was too big this time. So big, they could not conceal it!
The entire Outer Hall would face the anger of the Old Forefather when it was time. No, the entire
Little Mountain Jie would have to face the anger of the Old Forefather!
He Xiang suddenly achieved clarity. He seemed to have grabbed onto the last life-saving piece of
grass, and suddenly stood up. Who did it? Who did it?
This subordinate is still investigating
Investigating my ass! He Xiangs eyes were entirely red, his anger unrestrained. If these
people wont let us live, then we wont let them live! He took a deep breath, and calmed his
emotions, gradually calming down. He looked at the elders that had sank into hopelessness, and
said with craziness, We only have one path.
Everyone blankly raised their heads. They really couldnt think of a path they could take.
We need to find the perpetrator that killed Huang daren and give them to Old Forefather as
penance. He Xiang said in a low voice This time, whether or not our penance is acceptable will
determine if we can survive!
Many people had doubtful expressions. The matter this time was too serious. They didnt believe
that the Old Forefather would forgive them even if they found the perpetrator.
This is our only chance! He Xiang said crisply, and then added meaningfully. Old Forefather
will still need people to take care of affairs! If we can let Old Forefather see our abilities, the
hope we can survive is greater.
Everyone all became alert. Even though they didnt believe it, but He Xiang was right, this was
their only chance.
They had no route to escape.
The power of the Outer Hall was gathered together again. Every elder and all the xiuzhe were
sent out.

He Xiang decided to use the stupidest method, moving through faction by faction. He didnt
believe that he couldnt find the perpetrator!
Little Mountain Jie started to boil again!

With Silly Bird found, Zuo Mo went back to building the city. Huang Zhuo Guang was killed,
the state of Little Mountain Jie would definitely become tense. There wasnt much time left for
him. Thankfully, Little Mountain Jie, while a small jie, would still take a large amount of effort
to search for one person.
But Zuo Mo deeply felt he was pressed for time. He built crazily.
Pah, Zuo Mo spat out the soil from his mouth. His entire body was covered in mud, only his eyes
were exposed. Looking at the finished tunnels, he had a satisfied expression. The tunnels
between the city and the other six mountain peaks were finished. The remaining work was to set
up formations.
What he felt the most from digging tunnels was that this thing really was something for dhyana
xiu to do. Without physical strength, he definitely couldnt have persisted. When a sword xiu was
powerful, they could slice through a mountain peak with one blow, but if a sword xiu had to
come dig a tunnel, it was like they were blind.
Thinking of his gigantic formation, he felt that his body was filled with inexhaustible energy. He
bent his head to and kept working.
Without rest or sleep, Zuo Mo worked for more than ten days, and finished all the tunnels.

In these ten days, Little Mountain Jie had become a mess. The Outer Hall seemed to have gone
crazy as they searched everywhere. They even put out a mosted wanted list. The most famous on
there was Zheng Zhong of ningmai third stratum cultivation. Many others also recognized those
like Liu Gui. The only one that was unknown was that black looking person at the top of the list.
What people didnt know to laugh or cry about was that there was also a bird on the ranking, a
big grey bird.
Had the Outer Hall gone insane? Many people hadnt placed any importance on the list when
they first received it. However, the Outer Hall used their following actions to demonstrate that
they were not joking.
In a short ten days, five factions had been massacred.
The troops of the Outer Hall didnt seem to show any signs of stopping, and continued to push
outwards, not leaving anything behind.
Instantly, Little Mountain Jie became a mess.
Many factions, upon seeing the terrible situation, instantly pledged their allegiance to the Outer
Sect to avoid the calamity. Those factions that were not willing to enter the Outer Sect could only
keep retreating backwards. The Outer Hall that faced no resistance moved even faster.
After a while, the factions that had joined the Outer Hall quickly were divided into cadet halls of
the Outer Hall, and each put in charge of an area rich in ores.
With this, everyone understood what the Outer Hall was planning.
The Outer Hall wanted to swallow all of Little Mountain Jie. They were no longer content with
holding the throats of all the factions. They demanded complete control.

Gongsun Cha in a panic went and found Zuo Mo.


After Zuo Mo heard Gongsun Chas report, he thought for a while, and said, We need to first get
rid of the Outer Hall.
He then explained. Theres really too many people in this batch of people from the Outer Hall.
If we dont get rid of them bit by bit, its slightly dangerous. Im worried that the Old Forefather
might not be so proud. Then no matter how good our trap it, it cannot stand against a battle tactic
of using sheer numbers. The best path is to lower the power of the Outer Hall. That way, the
Clear Sky Old Forefather would have no other option but to come find us.
Gongsun Cha nodded. They only had one chance. If they were exposed, the Clear Sky Old
Forefather wouldnt be so dumb as to be tricked a second time.
Can we defeat them? Zuo Mo asked Gongsun Cha worriedly. The Vermillion Bird Camp now
had more than seven hundred people. The Eastern and Western Camps had two thousand people,
but Zuo Mo was doubtful regarding their combat abilities. The forces of the Outer Hall had
expanded rapidly, their numbers reaching more than ten thousand people. The difference in
numbers was too large.
Gongsun Cha smiled shyly and said, We can try.
Since he understood Shixiongs thinking, Gongsun Cha quickly responded. He no longer needed
to worry about the safety of the Golden Crow City. The thirty six formation battle watchtowers
were enough for self-defense. He moved out with the Vermillion Bird Camp, the Eastern and
Western Camps were to stand guard, and to control the watchtowers when it was time.
As to Guard Camp, Gongsun Cha didnt even go there once.
Who could depend on a group of xiu slaves to do anything?
Gongsun Chas departure was silent. The great majority of people in Golden Crow City were
ignorant.
Zuo Mo also realized the tense situation. He instantly responded, quickly sending out orders.
Without noticing it, the inside of Golden Crow City started to become tense.
Especially the forging division. Every person could feel the tenseness that spread through the air.

After a few days, a group of xiuzhe appeared near Golden Crow City. When Vermillion Bird
Camp had been present, Gongsun Cha had arranged for patrols to stop people from approaching
Golden Crow City. Now that Vermillion Bird Camp had been deployed, there hadnt been anyone
to maintain the patrols.
When the xiuzhe that were training on the formation battle watchtowers saw the crowd of dots on
the horizon, they became nervous, and hurriedly sent out an alarm.
The Golden Crow City was on alert!
Heavens! When had there been a city here? The xiuzhe at the front looked in disbelief at the
little city on the faraway mountain peak.
Everyone else was also staring with wide eyes, their expressions stunned as they looked at the
little city.
At this time, a beam of light penetrated the clouds like a sharp sword, and landed on the Golden
Crow City. Golden Crow City instantly lit up with a faint light.
The faint golden light exuded the presence of the sun. Even from tens of li out, it still caused
trepidation.
Miracle! This is a miracle! the xiuzhe at the front muttered to himself.

All of the people were deeply shocked by Golden Crow City. Their gazes couldnt bear to move
away for more than a second. They flew on soullessly.
When they flew to a distance of ten li from the city, the little city was even more realistic in their
eyes. It was a city of the sun! They could not imagine what people could construct such a
beautiful city!
But when they unconsciously went closer, the xiuzhe at the front suddenly smelled a dangerous
presence.
Dots of silver light lit up on the little city.
Everyone instantly stopped in their tracks.
When the xiuzhe at the front saw the watchtowers that were higher than the city walls, an
unfamiliar term flashed through his mind. His soul instantly left his body. He shouted hoarsely in
terror, Retreat! Quick, retreat!
Every watchtower that lit up looked like a silver dot from a distance.
The silver dots lit up one after the other.
All thirty six silver dots bathed in the sunlight. The xiuzhe at the front retreated in panic, his
expression shocked, and eyes filled with terror.
Formation battle watchtowers! Those were formation battle watchtowers!
Translator Ramblings: Formation battle watchtowers are things that require exclamation points.
The fight between Clear Sky Sects outer hall and Zuo Mos factions has been pushed early by
the death of Huang Zhuo Guang. Keep in mind they dont actually know who did it at this point
so they are going around blaming and killing anyone that resists.

and Seventy Nine Transaction

Chapter Two Hundred and Seventy Nine Transaction
After receiving a strong fright, the xiuzhe retreated twenty li before stopping. Luckily, the silver
dots from Golden Crow City did not approach and they calmed down slightly.
Head, what are formation battle watchtowers? the subordinate asked, puzzled. The other
xiuzhe also had bewildered faces, but some xiuzhe had fearful expressions.
Great weapons to protect a city. The Head looked at Golden Crow City and warned, You have
to be careful. If you ever see a city that have things like what you just saw, you have to be
careful. The power of formation battle watchtowers are very high. They are used to stop enemies
from attacking. Usually, they can only be seen in larger cities. I hadnt expected such a small city
to have thirty six of them.
Its just thirty six of them. We have this many people, one charge, and we can take it down, the
subordinate objected, unconvinced.
Charge? the Head smiled coldly. Dont cause trouble for me. The other side is much stronger
than our people! Dont look down on those thirty-six formation battle watchtowers. That things
expensive. Even if we sell ourselves, we wont be able to trade for one of them.
That expensive? the subordinates eyes widened as he gaped.
En, very expensive, the Head said. Think about it. Right now, we are worried about ling
grains everyday, but the other has the ability to build formation battle watchtowers. Is there a
need to fight?

No one spoke. This comparison was simple and straightforward, able to be comprehended at a
glance. In Little Mountain Jie, everyone was in a half-starved state. The rarity of ling grains were
something every faction had to face.
If they dont lack for ling grains, can we buy some ling grains from them? the subordinate
suddenly asked.
The Head stilled, and thought. He was right. The other had the ability to build such a city, they
shouldnt lack for ling grains. In Little Mountain jie right now, even if you had the jingshi, there
was no place to buy ling grains.
Just at this time, several people were seen flying out of Golden Crow City.
They were extremely fast, arriving in front of them in a short while. There were four people, the
leader a male xiu that was both tall and thin. Beside him were three guards dressed in golden
armor.
Everyones eyes were attracted by the exaggerated fire red broadswords the Golden Armor
Guards were holding. The three xiuzhe were completely enveloped by the golden armor as they
stood coldly. The heads heart shook. He could not see the true power of these three Golden
Armor Guards, but the presence and faint viciousness that spilled out made him smell danger.

This one is Bao Yi, the main manager of Golden Crow Citys businesses. Bao Yi made an
elegant bow. Ever since he had followed Boss, what he had done was watch over the stores.
Now, it was finally time for him to go back to his old profession. At this moment, his tears
almost streamed over his face.
Bao Yi? The Head felt that this name was somewhat familiar but he couldnt recall it.
However, he didnt let the puzzlement stay long on his face, and filled it with a smile, Nice to
meet Manager Bao!
The people noted down the name of this city, Golden Crow City.
My apologies. Bao Yis expression made everyones hearts tense.
Detecting expressions were basic techniques that every businessperson had to learn. As one of
the best, Bao Yi naturally had great skill. His expression was indifferent, but he was very
satisfied inside. Before, he had only been a little black market dealer. Now, he could cause such a
large crowd of xiuzhe to feel nervous.
This batch of xiuzhe was about five hundred or so people, and could be considered a significant
faction.
He felt satisfied, but he didnt want to ruin his first business transaction. He put on a friendly
smile, Due to our city being too small, it cannot hold everyone. You can set up camp outside the
city. All fighting is restricted within twenty li of the city. If you would like to camp inside this
area, you will need to pay a fee, and we will direct you to an area to camp. You can also choose
to set up camp outside this twenty li area, and not have to pay any fee. Also, our city has a
market inside. It will have many surprises for everyone. If you have any needs, our city will open
everyday at sunrise, and close at sunset. We will do our best to provide services for everyone.
When the Head heard such formal words, he thought inside that this was truly a large faction.
Look at the mannerisms, the composure. They were even so skilled in demanding jingshi, to the
point you couldnt get angry.
Swallowing, the Head said, What do you take in trade?

Little Mountain Jie was extremely chaotic, all kinds of order had collapsed long ago. Many
factions traded in all kinds of weird things.
Jingshi third-grade and above is accepted. Also, to provide convenience, we have specialized
conversion services. Acceptable materials are those third-grade and above, talismans and jade
scrolls need to be fourth grade and above.
Hearing this, the Head was even more shocked. Look at that, they only take in jade scrolls and
talismans of fourth-grade and above. In their group, there were only two fourth-grade talismans.
Compared to the other, they were so poor they were practically beggars.
His heart feeling even less confidence, his voice became smaller, Then we will camp outside the
twenty li.
The friendly smile hung on Bao Yis face. No problem. He then handed the Head a paper
crane, saying, If needed, you can contact me at any time. Everyone, you have had a long trip, I
will not disturb you, goodbye.
Finishing, he bowed courteously before taking the three Golden Armor Guards and flying back
to the city.

When Bao Yi left, this Head instantly asked, Who has jingshi?
There were many that kept some, but the total was pitifully small. At this time, a subordinate
reminded him, Head, dont we have a batch of White Bone Stone? We can sell to them.
The Head hit his head. Right! White Bone Stone was shaped like white bone, hence the name. It
was a rare third-grade material. Instantly feeling that his wallet wasnt so empty, the Head
instantly was lively. En, we will go look around the city tomorrow, and see what things we can
buy.
At this time, the subordinate suddenly remembered. Boss, I remember now!
Remember what? the Head turned his face.
Bao Yi! this subordinate said. Bao Yi is a black market dealer. He had went to Nan Sheng
Village, but the Chief Elder of the Outer Hall had enmity against him. Dont you remember? At
that time, you even told me to never go to him to buy anything so the Outer Hall wouldnt hold a
grudge against us.
I remember! After this reminder, the Head instantly recalled it. It seems he caught onto a big
tree this time, and struck it rich! The owner of this city is really daring to not even give face to
the Outer Hall.
Boss, say, could it be that it was this group that did Nan Sheng Village? the subordinate said in
a quiet voice.
The Head shook and jumped in fright. He instantly reprimanded in a low voice, Dont speak
nonsense! You cant say these things, you can be killed for this!
Yes yes yes! The subordinates face was slightly pale as he nodded continuously.
Waving his hand to push the subordinate to the side, the Head couldnt help but think. For some
reason, what the subordinate just said whirled through his mind like a ghost haunting him.
Had it been this group who did that?
Before today, he had never thought there could be any faction in Little Mountain Jie that could
be this powerful. Even the Outer Hall couldnt compare. Everyone had already discussed in
depth what happened at Nan Sheng Village, and had come to a consensus.
The attacking sides abilities were not smaller than the Outer Hall!

If it really was them


The more the Head thought, the more scared he was. It was fated that he would have a sleepless
night.

Golden Crow City, Zuo Mo worked as he asked, How was it?


Bao Yi stood respectfully at the side. They dont seem to have too much jingshi.
No problem, Zuo Mo said, we can loan them some.
Loan? Bao Yi was very shocked. Then wouldnt it be unprofitable for us?
Loan it to them, and they can then sell to other people. Zuo Mo clearly had great enthusiasm
towards jingshi. He even stopped doing his work and snickered. As long as there is jingshi to be
earned, they will work harder than anyone else.
But what if they take the stuff and run? Bao Yi said, full of worry.
What are you afraid of? Zuo Mo was unconcerned. Where can they run to? They wont run.
Here, they can continuously make jingshi!
Seeing Bao Yi was going to speak, Zuo Mo waved his hand and said. Even if we lose, it wont
be a lot. Other than making jingshi, it is more important to sell the Black Processing Meditation
mat.
Bao Yi was confused.
With the Black Processing Meditation mat, do they still need ling grains? Zuo Mo asked.
They dont need it. Bao Yi shook his head.
Thats the point, Zuo Mo patiently explained. If they dont need ling grains, they will not be
controlled by Clear Sky Sect. In the future when we are fighting Clear Sky Sect, they would not
be pressured to help Clear Sky Sect. This is more important to us. Jingshi is much easier to get
than ling grains.
If Clear Sky Old Forefather comes, they wouldnt dare Bao Yi said.
A single jindan ruling a jie, have you ever heard of it? Zuo Mo asked. Then he answered his
own question, Ive never heard of it. Why is everyone so afraid of Clear Sky Sect? It is not
Clear Sky Old Forefather, but the ling grains. Without the threat of ling grains, everyone will
think, I cant defeat you, but you cant do anything if I stay away from you. I dont need your
help.
In other words, Little Mountain Jie is still a cage, but inside the cage, people wont have to
worry about their cultivation collapsing in the short term, Zuo Mo said. No one likes Clear Sky
Sect. In the short term without the threat of ling grains, they wont help Clear Sky Sect when we
fight against Clear Sky Sect.
Bao Yi finally realized and then asked, Will they help us? If we get rid of Clear Sky Sect, it
would be of benefit to everyone!
No, Zuo Mos answer was clean. You arent giving jingshi to them, why will they help you?
They also have to consider what if we are defeated? They still have to stay in this cage.
Bao Yi was silent. He knew that Boss wasnt wrong, but for some reason, he was slightly
disappointed by this answer.
Zuo Mo knew Bao Yis emotions and comforted. Its alright, we hadnt been planning on
depending on them in the first place. We rely on ourselves.
En! Boss, I know what to do. Bao Yi nodded his head firmly, a undetectable cold light flashing
in his eyes.

His heart was full of enthusiasm for battle. As a successful black market businessperson, he
decided to use the truth to tell them why he could establish himself in the black market, and the
difference between black market businesspeople and normal businesspeople. It was all one word
Black!
Translator Ramblings: Zuo Mo brings his own unique perspective of the state of Little Mountain
Jie. It is not the complete truth, nor is it completely accurate but I guess that Fang Xiangs
skills shine through here as he is able to keep the plot happenings and the perspective of the main
character separate yet have them join together when necessary. Zuo Mos ignorance is
deliberately written and it is a long journey to see him enlightened.
It is also deliberate but I still find it ironic that Zuo Mos running into trouble because of ling
grains considering his profession as a ling plant farmer.

and Eighty Prelude

Chapter Two Hundred and Eighty Prelude
Outside of Nan Sheng Village.
Hee hee, they definitely would never expect that we would return, Lei Peng looked at the
newly rebuilt Nan Sheng Village, his bearded face snickering.
The other people all had strange expressions.
No one had expected that Lil Miss would sneak all the way to Nan Sheng Village.
However, they were full of enthusiasm about destroying the enemys main base again. Everyone
was drooling while staring at Nan Sheng Village, howling as they charged at Nan Sheng Village.
Hopelessness floated on to the faces of the enemies.

Golden Crow City.


We have all kinds of talismans for all types of xiuzhe, the offensive type, the defensive type, the
supporting type. You can see them all. A good talisman can save your life at a critical moment,
and they are not expensive
This is a special product of our city, fourth-grade Golden Crow Fire. I think that I dont need to
introduce this. If you have enough jingshi, we can provide you with an unlimited amount. Of
course, something as good as this needs a price suitable for it
What you see right now is a top-secret talisman, Black Processing Meditation mat. When you
possess this, you do not need to worry about relying completely on ling grains. What? You dont
believe me. Oh oh oh I can understand! No matter, what can be more effective than personally
experiencing it? Out of consideration for our customers, we provide trial service. Please come
with me
You do not have enough jingshi? Oh, I need to consider this. You know that all of our
merchandise are good items that are in high demand. No xiuzhe would be able to refuse this
Golden Crow Fire. Black Processing Meditation mat, oh, this definitely is an mighty talisman!
Yes, it is not outrageous to use mighty to describe it. It can help you get rid of your reliance on
ling grains

Oh, so its like that! I can understand your difficulties. Since you are so sincere, we can both
move back a step. You can first borrow a batch of merchandise from our city, but it will not be a
huge amount. I trust that you have the abilities to quickly sell all of it with your power. We will
not interfere with how much you sell it for. I feel that the large profit involved is enough for your
purchasing power to quickly increase in a short time.
But considering that we do not have a history of cooperating together, you need to provide a
guarantee. Anything can work, I see that your fourth-grade flying sword appeared very good

Oh, a gentleman will not take anothers items. Since it is so meaningful to you, then this one
will not demand it. Then we only have one option, a lien through people. You only have to
provide one hundred people as collateral
We will have a great relationship!
When the Head came out of Golden Crow City, he shook his slightly inflated head. That slender
bamboo rod really knew how to talk. Those good items still seemed to be swaying in front of his
eyes. The cold wind that blew against his face cleared his mind. Looking at the faraway
mountain peak, he took a deep breath. He knew an outrageously good opportunity was in front of
him!
If he could catch this chance, his strength would quickly go up a few levels!

Shu Long carefully listened to the voice that came out of the necklace. However, the person who
was speaking this time seemed to be arguing with someone.
They can only cultivate mo, they cant do what the yao do. Shu Long was very familiar with
this voice that was always slightly scornful. It was this one that had taught them how to cultivate.
Boss subordinate was so mysterious, he had never shown his true face.
However, he didnt dare interrupt. This darens temper was not good.
Oh, you arent wrong. The boy is even more outrageous now. We cant let him continue to be so
smug. We are people of status.
Okay, we can try what you suggest.
Listening to this daren talk to himself, Shu Long perceptively stayed silent.
Shu Long, The necklace passed through the darens call.
He hurriedly responded, This one is here.
From today onwards, the cultivation plan is being changed.
Yes. Shu Long did not argue or object. They would cultivate whichever way Daren said to.
Before this, they didnt know anything about cultivation.
Daren listed all the places that needed to be modified in detail. Shu Long noted all of them
down. When he met places he did not understand, he would ask for clarification.
Pu Yao clearly was very satisfied with Shu Longs attitude, but he still added, Oh, you need to
supervise them. With your turtle speed, when will you even cultivate to an acceptable level?
Yes! Shu Long seriously answered.
Especially that [Crow Fiend Mo Killing Formation], you need to rehearse it well.

In the tunnel, Zuo Mo wiped the sweat off his forehead, a satisfied expression on his face. The
four sides of the tunnel had to be carved with formations to create a complete formation. The
amount of work Zuo Mo had to complete this time was vast. The nine formation belts interlocked
together, each of them with a fourth-grade formation as the core, and thirteen third-grade
formations set up in the perimeter.
Nine fourth-grade formations, one hundred and seventeen third-grade formations. He almost
didnt even dare to think about it.
But he still gritted his teeth and started!
If he couldnt charge out of here, he would die in here sooner or later.
He had struggled greatly when setting up these formations. Every day, his ling and spiritual
power were greatly used exhausted.
However, his labor hadnt been wasted. He had finished one-third of it. Thinking about it, he felt
it was impossible. He had never completed so much before.
Releasing a long breath, the golden threads of fire flying in the air were as mischievous as pixies
and flew in front of him.
In the fire light, he looked at the female xiu nearby.
She stood there motionlessly like wood. There was a mask on her face again. Zuo Mo had
reforged a black mask for her. Her eyes were grey and empty, only flashing with the purple light
when she was fighting. This woman who was covered in mysteries!
Looking at her, Zuo Mos thoughts wandered.
Who are you!
He shook his head hard and threw away these stray thought. Right now, he needed to think how
to finish the big formation. For him, he had never thought of such a large formation belt before.
From the planning to fruition, it had been all completed by him. Every time he thought of it, his
blood heated up.
When ge gets this done, what Heros Pass, what sect jinzhi, all of that is nothing.
He gathered one hundred and twenty percent of his mental effort and went back to his work.

In the forging division, Sun Bao wiped away the sweat and said with a grimace to Ji Wei, Boss
pace is too astonishing, we really have it hard.
Ji Wei could only grimace along. What can we do? I dont know if Boss is made out of metal or
something. We forged so many parts, he shouldnt be so fast even if he was eating them.
The two could only grimace at each other before bending down to forge.

Gongsun Cha looked at Nan Sheng Village under his feet that had been once again turned to
ruins, his face expressionless. He knew this was only the start. It was like a war that had just
started. The following battles would be their true test.
Daren, where are we going now?
Xie Shan asked with anticipation. He was totally won over by this Head who was much lower in
cultivation than him. Boss and Lil Miss ages were not high, but why were they so strong?
Supposedly, they were disciples of the same sect. It was very rare to see such strong disciples at
such a young age.

The ambush this time was not as fierce as last time, but this kind of disciplined style made Xie
Shan feel very good inside. In such a short period of time, everyone had made such large
improvements. He felt it was incredible when he thought back.
The other people looked towards Lil Miss with anticipation. When Lil Miss personally led the
troops, he would always give them unexpected surprises.
Didnt they create cadet halls? Pick one to start with. Gongsun Chas face had a rare cold
expression, his tone murderous.
This group of battlemaniacs instantly became excited.
Only a rare few realized the abnormality of the mission this time and from Lil Miss unusual
attitude. They looked at each other.
Was the final battle going to start

Sky Water Jie, a grand yard filled with grass and ling beasts frolicking about. In the very center,
there was an ancient copper diffuser as high as a person. Beside the stove, there was a middleaged xiuzhe sitting cross legged on a meditation mat, surrounded by the smoke.
Suddenly, a paper crane flew out of the sky and landed in front of the middle-aged xiuzhe.
The middle-aged xiuzhe opened their eyes, and looked at the paper crane with a surprised
expression. He hurriedly opened the paper crane. After carefully reading it over, he sank into
deep thought.
After a while, he raised his head. His finger flicked and a sword light flew out. Shortly after, a
female xiu flew in front of the middle-aged xiu, and bowed slightly, Why has Daren summoned
me?
The female xiu wore deep red ling armor, her features pretty and her mannerisms restrained.
Do you know the situation of Little Mountain Jie? the middle-aged xiuzhe asked solemnly.
I know some.
Oh, speak.
Little Mountain Jie is managed by Clear Sky Sect presently. After the yao army passed through,
the ling energy there has withered. Many xiuzhe have become trapped inside because the Clear
Sky Sect blockades the jie river, the female xiu paused slightly, the Hundred Flowers Alliance
and other sects have relationships with Clear Sky Sect, and have made private transactions.
Clear Sky Sects guts isnt small. The face of the middle-aged xiuzhe was slightly heavy. It
looks as though they want to turn Little Mountain Jie into their own private property. Whos the
leader of Clear Sky Sect right now?
It is Clear Sky Old Forefather.
That old man, the middle-aged person said with a smirk, there naturally will be people to sort
him out.
The female xiu did not speak and waited silently.
The middle-aged person took out a token and threw it to the female xiu. Go pick two hundred
people to go with you to Little Mountain Jie. With this token, that old person will not block
you.
What is this subordinates mission?
You only need to accomplish one matter this time, the middle-aged xiuzhe said. Stars in
Daytime appeared in Little Mountain Jie, you will go investigate this matter.
Stars in Daytime? the female xiu had a shocked expression.

Yes, it has also appeared once in Sky Moon Jie. There is most likely a connection between these
two occasions. You have to pay special attention to those xiuzhe that escaped from Sky Moon Jie
to Little Mountain Jie.
If we find this person, what should I do? the female xiu, bowing.
Bring them back! the middle-aged person said.
I understand.
Translator Ramblings: The title says it all about this chapter. Bao Yis sales tactics are truly
devious. I would call him a snake oil salesman except what they are selling are actually effective
in what they are said to do.

Chapter Two Hundred and Eighty One Gradual Advance
Nan Sheng Village had been destroyed again!
This was like a peerlessly loud slap that landed heavily on He Xiangs face. He Xiang felt a rush
of blood rush up his throat and he almost fainted. The expressions of the other elders were also
terrible. They had achieved great victories recently, and saw the hope of survival.
But at this time, they were hit over the head with a stick.
Who! Motherf***ing who! an elder lost control of his emotions, and shouted at the top of his
lungs.
It definitely is that group! It has to be them!
The crowd was furious. All of the elders were like a pack of wolves that were pushed to the
precipice, their faces red as they breathed heavily.
He Xiang steadied his mind. He tried to calm himself down. He raised a hand and stopped the
shouts of the elders, saying, We need to retaliate! A hard counterattack! Old Forefather is
watching at us. All of Little Mountain Jie is watching us. If we are so easily defeated, no one will
listen to us again. Old Forefather will lose his last thread of patience, and we will be finished!
Catch them! Defeat them! At any cost!
He Xiang gritted through his teeth.
The final battle has started! This is our final battle! This battle will determine if we live or die!
No one spoke. The eyes of every elder were red, their faces twisted.

Ji Wei and Sun Bao carefully entered the tunnels. Their eyes uncontrollably looked at the
complex formations on the walls of the tunnels with intoxicated expressions. They were like
unworldly country bumpkins that had entered the city for the first time, feeling as though their
eyes were not enough to take in the sights.
Their gasps occasionally rang out in the silent tunnels.
Look at this, it can be interlocked like this! Ji Wei pointed at a place, and praised. I dont
know what is inside Boss head that he can think of a solution like this!
Yes! Sun Bao replied, but his gaze didnt bear to move away. Boss learning in formations is
growing deeper.

Oh, I feel that Boss might be able to get a Formation Grandmaster medal to play with, Ji Wei
said.
Boss wont be interested, Sun Bao got a hint, and contentedly shifted his eyes away. What use
is that Formation Grandmaster jade medal to Boss? Will Boss depend on it for his meal ticket?
We should probably get some so that we wont end up without the qualifications to be Boss
assistants. Look at these formations, they are as beautiful as a picture. Theres nothing to say
about Boss skill with fire. I say that if Boss forged, we could only be his assistants. Think about
it, how old is Boss?
Hearing this, Ji Wei nodded emphatically. You are right. We need to work on the little group of
brats. Ai, it would be great if they had half the talent of Boss.
Sun Bao smiled scornfully and said, Half of his talent, dont dream. We arent young people,
but have you ever seen someone as monstrous as Boss? Heavens, he isnt a person. He built this
Golden Crow City by himself, and used fire forging methods. You might not have noticed but I
was dumbstruck on the spot.
Ji Wei nodded with empathy. Yes, I was also stunned. Even with all of us assisting, we almost
didnt manage to keep up the supply. I didnt sleep well any of those days in fear we couldnt
keep up. Bosss fire paper technique, tsk tsk, it is a pleasure to see, I didnt want to move away.
Sun bao snickered. Everyone is the same. Who has seen such wonderful fire forging technique?
It is enough to scare me to death. And those formation battle watchtowers. Thirty six towers.
Motherf***er, were lucky Boss is Boss. If it was any other person, everyone else would lose
their meal ticket.
With the city, and the formation battle watchtowers, our Golden Crow City is probably unique
among Little Mountain Jie, Jie Wei said, full of pride.
Of course! Sun Bao also had a proud expression. He looked around, and then lowered his
voice to say, But from what I see, Boss might not stay in Little Mountain Jie. Look at these
tunnels, this formation belt. It is very big. Other than jindan, I cant think of anyone who needs
such preparations.
Ji Wei was silent for a moment before saying, In any case, Im planning on going with Boss.
Im not young anymore, I see the world clearly. Theres nothing to say about how Boss treats us.
As to the other, life and death, Im too lazy to think.
Your words are wasted on me, Ji Wei said unconcernedly. No one among us will run now. If
any of the brats dare run, watch me break his legs. Im confident in Boss. Just this Little
Mountain Jie cannot trap Boss.
Then why are you saying this? Ji Wei glanced at the other out of the corner of his eyes.
Sun Bao said excitedly, Arent you excited? We are going to deal with a jindan! Jindan!
Ji Wei rolled his eyes, and said rudely. Youre a pretty old person, why are you still so childlike?
Quick, quick, stop wasting time. We need to deliver this to Boss, hes waiting.
You arent excited at all? Jindan, that is a jindan
Oh, very excited.
You arent excited at all, how can you not be excited? You
Since you have this much energy, go back and forge some more Black Processing Meditation
mats. The slender bamboo almost cant meet the demand

Bao Yi looked at the mountains of jingshi and materials in the storeroom and his face blossomed.
Boss was right. The domino effect was really too fast! After that Head had left, several more
group of xiuzhe had arrived shortly after. Some people had bought Black Processing Meditation
mat from others, and then came in search of more. Others were just passing by.
They had to thank the Outer Hall. As the Outer Hall pushed forward, the xiuzhe along the way
continued to retreat, and run. Consequently, many xiuzhe would pass by Golden Crow City.
Every xiuzhe that passed by would gape when they saw Golden Crow City, so shocked they
would almost drop from the sky.
And what the city was selling made everyone go crazy.
The appearance of the Black Processing Meditation mat was a great explosion. The number of
people that came to buy Black Processing Meditation mat everyday was so much they had lined
up. It wasnt realistic for each person to by one. Usually it was a group and they would buy a few
dozen each time. About three people would share a single mat and could satisfy their daily needs.
However, the direct result of the Black Processing Meditation mat was the jingshi that everyone
had thrown to the side before increased in value. With the Black Processing Meditation mat,
jingshi was equivalent to ling grains. Many xiuzhe couldnt bear to use jingshi to purchase, and
mostly traded using materials.
So all kinds of materials flooded towards Golden Crow City, causing Bao Yi to increase the
standard for taking in materials.
Bao Yis face was flushed, his mind excited. He had been a black market dealer for so long, but
had never done business like this. What he was selling now would directly change the situation
of Little Mountain Jie. He felt so happy he was going to faint.
The supply was not keeping up with demand, and gave him enough space to express black to
its limits.
Talismans, materials, jingshi
Well take them, take them all!
Expensive? Oh, very sorry, we dont have discounts!
The feeling of richness that he never had before took over his entire body.
His life like this, what else could he ask for!

The sky was dark and bloody, the ground was barren. This was a certain place in Bloody Sky
Metropolis Jie.
A troop of yao camped surrounding a spring that looked like fresh blood. This was a blood
spring. Blood springs were frequently seen in Bloody Sky Metropolis Jie. For yaomo, blood
springs were very good places. Yao could use it to calm their energies, and mo could directly
consume the spring blood to recover their strength. But for xiuzhe, blood springs were a terrible
place. The closer it was to the blood spring, the more brutal and restless the ling power was. The
spring blood of the blood spring was also a fatal poison for xiuzhe. If xiuzhe under jindan came
into contact with the slightest bit of it, they would be poisoned. If they were not careful, they
would die.
This troop of yao was about one thousand people.
How far away are we from Little Mountain Jie? the leading commander asked.
About fifteen days of travel, his vice commander hurriedly said.

Suddenly, a bead on the bracelet on his wrist lit up with a blue light. He made a light sound.
Blue Hyacinth! Orders from the Elder Council!
He took down the bead glowing with blue light and threw it onto the ground. Pia. As the bead
landed, it burrowed into the ground. Quickly, a blue plant grew with speed visible to the naked
eye, flowered, and produced fruit.
From beginning to end, it took just two breaths.
The blue fruit produced a faint blue mist. The mist moved and roiled, forming an old face.
Sir Tian Sheng, after the discussion of the Elder Council, you have been commanded to move
your division at the fastest speed possible to Little Mountain Jie, take over and hold the jie river
of Little Mountain Jie to Sky Water Jie, and are not permitted to fail!
Yes! Tian Sheng gravely responded.
Pah, the mist dissipated. This blue hyacinth quickly withered and turned to dust. With a gust of
wind, nothing was left.
Send the order down. Gather immediately to travel, Tian Sheng said gravely.
Yes! the vice commander hurriedly followed the order.
Tian Sheng was still thinking over the order just now. In all the military orders of the yao
military, only the orders from the Elder Sect could use blue hyacinths. In other words, this order
had come directly from the Elder Council. This kind of situation was extremely rare, and the first
time he had encountered it.
Something definitely had happened in Little Mountain Jie.
Even though they had not rested for long, and everyone had not recovered from their exhaustion,
the good discipline of the yao military was fully expressed now. They quickly packed up.
Little Mountain Jie, travel at our fastest speed!

Dong Cheng idly stretched out. It was very hard to be able to live such an idle life in Little
Mountain Jie. He was secretly proud of his perceptiveness. As the first faction to submit to the
Outer Hall, he became the example, and was put in charge of the first cadet branch of the Outer
Hall.
The first one of the Outer Hall. He narrowed his eyes, and enjoyed the sunlight falling on his
face. Just this name was enough for him to have a good life in the future.
Even though each months jobs were not light, but it was a great improvement over his past life.
Oh, he had to make a request for a batch of xiu slaves from the main hall.
Suddenly, a subordinate stumbled into the yard and shouted in panic, Daren! Daren! Its not
good, its not good!
Dong Chengs dream was disturbed, and he was very discontent. He furrowed his brow. What
are you panicking about. I havent died yet!
Its not good! Daren! It really isnt good
Hmph, say, what isnt good? Dong Zheng was even more discontent. He decided that if this
guy couldnt mention a great matter, he would punish the other well.
Someone has attacked us
My ass! Dong Cheng snorted. In Little Mountain Jie, no one dares to come to our Outer Hall
to
His voice suddenly stopped, his body freezing as he looked dazedly at the sky.
In the sky, a troop was looking down at them.

Suddenly thinking of something, Dong Chengs face was drained of blood in an instant, his limbs
went cold!
Translator Ramblings: I wonder if Zuo Mo knows that he can gain a formations jade medal
hes only ever focused on getting the ling farmer one so I wonder. If this was a time of peace, he
would be making loads of jingshi.
As the chapter title says, this will proceed gradually. Patience is needed

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Eighty Two Fire Sickle Rock
This chapter has been brought to you by me, and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter Two Hundred and Eighty Two Fire Sickle Rock
It wasnt the first time Rong Wei came to Little Mountain Jie, but when she saw how damaged
Little Mountain Jie was, she was still shocked. The house guards that came with her were also
shocked.
Clear Sky Sect isnt really a good thing. Look at Little Mountain, what have they done to it?
someone muttered.
Yes, they will be punished by the heavens!
Is the Marquis going to move against Clear Sky Sect?
Dont guess randomly ..
Listening to the mutterings of her subordinates, Rong Wei did not speak. Her mind was slightly
unfocused. After a moment, she refocused. She hadnt seen Clear Sky Old Forefather. The
Marquis token had been presented, and they were let into Little Mountain Jie.
She could clearly feel the nervous mood of Clear Sky Sect. She heard that someone had
encountered something.
Had something happened again in Little Mountain Jie?
The incident of Stars in Daytime in Sky Moon Jie had disturbed many people at the time. She
knew that the Marquis had paid special attention to the matter. Even though she had been
brought up by the Marquis from childhood, she rarely saw the Marquis so concerned over a
matter.
The origins of the Marquis were deep and mysterious. She had never seen him attend to the
major matters that occurred in Sky Moon Jie, but for the first time, she had seen a grave
expression on Marquis face concerning the Stars in Daytime.
This was the second time, and was also due to the Stars in Daytime.
There were many jade scrolls and old records in the Marquis compound. Growing up from
childhood in the compound, Rong Weis knowledge was much wider than the great majority of
xiuzhe. She knew a bit about what Stars in Daytime meant.
She felt slightly puzzled. The impression that Marquis usually gave her was that of an idle
person. She couldnt help but feel nervous that he was so concerned about such a matter.
She focused, and slowly said, Lets go.
The compound guards instantly closed their mouths. Miss Rong was not of Marquiss legitimate
line, but in terms of favor, she was first in the compound. Also, Miss Rong had not failed the
Marquis teachings, and was outstanding in all areas since childhood. It was just that she rarely
left the compound, so her reputation was not known. The compound guards, regardless of their
experience, were all respectful when they saw her, and didnt dare to do any posturing.
Rong Weis head started to hurt. Where should she start investigating the Stars in Daytime?


Jiang Hao looked at the most wanted list and drooled, Big Brother, we are going to get rich
now! The other people also showed undisguised greed.
Jiang Wei was also swallowing hard, but he was calmer than his younger brother. Whenever he
thought of that strange and terrifying female xiu, he would sink into deep terror.
Dont forget about that female xiu. His voice was hoarse.
The surroundings became deathly silent. Terror was imprinted on everyones eyes. After seeing
that silent massacre, three among them had their cultivation collapse due to long-term terror. The
wails before their death still seemed to echo in their ears.
The flames of greed in everyones eyes were doused by a bucket of cold water.
Jiang Hao shook. He force a smile and said, The one that will go find them is the Outer Hall.
No matter how powerful the female xiu is, she is just one person His voice became
increasingly light, and his face increasingly pale.
No matter how many the benefits are, we will need to live to experience them. Jiang Weis
eyes were bloodshot, and he said gravely, Since the Outer Hall is searching for them, they will
be able to find them. The collision between the two sides is beneficial to us. Maybe we can even
leave this damned place.
Brother, you think too highly of them, Jiang Hao said with a forced smile.
Its not that I think highly of them, but I hope they can do it, Jiang Wei sighed.
The other people were silent.

In Zuo Mos vast tunnels, the surroundings were filled with formations. His heart was excited.
Finished! He finally finished!
To set up such a large formation just with his power, he had enough to be proud of!
Thinking it over, working day and night, only he knew how difficult it had been. Starting from
when he began building Golden Crow City, he had never truly thought he could finish it. The
increasingly tense situation was like an invisible whip continuously urging him to be faster!
When it truly was finished, Zuo Mo felt he was in a dream.
Is this real? he suddenly turned and asked the female xiu.
The female xiu didnt seem to hear and didnt respond.
Zuo Mo snickered and was not concerned. He muttered to himself. Please dont let this be a
dream!
In this period of time, his consciousness had improved greatly, his skill with fire deepening with
every day so that the later portion of his work had been completed quickly. With his previous
skill level, it wouldnt have been possible to complete such a vast project without using the better
half of a year.
Pu Yao hadnt lied to him this time. He had improved greatly through the entire process of
building the city, so much that even he was shocked. The Jade Metal Head had entered third
maturation. What excited him the most was that his consciousness had grown more than three
times. Right now, he felt as though he was a basin of water, with so much water that it was
almost overflowing. His consciousness probably wasnt far from a breakthrough. He also had a

feeling that if his breakthrough could succeed this time, the degree of improvement would be
very large.
Looking at the surroundings, Zuo Mo was suddenly filled with confidence!
Even if what he was facing was a jindan!
Right now, there was only one thing left to do.

Zuo Mo didnt tell anyone the work had been completed, but the first person who felt the effects
was Bao Yi. The supply of Black Processing Meditation mats couldnt keep up with demand.
Bao Yi felt proud, but also frantic.
Yet suddenly the production of Black Processing Meditation mat increased dramatically. He
perceptively realized what had happened.
Only if Boss did not require any supplies on his side, then the people of the forging division
would be able to put all their effort into making Black Processing Meditation mats. Of the two
most famous products of Golden Crow city, one was Golden Crow Fire, the other was Black
Processing Meditation mat. Other than the batch that Bao Yi deliberately held back, the
remaining Golden Crow Fire had all been sold. Only Boss could make Golden Crow Fire. Now
that no one could find Boss through the day, who had the time to hope he could produce Golden
Crow Fire?
Golden Crow City only sold one product now, Black Processing Meditation mats.
The wondrous ability of the Black Processing Meditation mat spread throughout Little Mountain
Jie like it had wings. Countless xiuzhe flooded from all areas towards Golden Crow City.

In a dusky mine shaft, Lil Pagoda floated in the air like a dutiful supervisor as it directed those
puppets to continuously work. The abnormal change had frightened the timid Lil Pagoda half to
death. Even though Zuo Mo had not scolded it, it still expressed an attitude of fulfilling its duties
well.
This caused the production of jingshi and ore recently to grow dramatically. The cheer on Bao
Yis face had grown even more.
Suddenly, a copper puppet stopped what it was going, looking dazedly at the strange item in
front of it.
Lil Pagoda instantly detected the abnormality, and hurriedly flew over.
It was a bright red rock that exuded a strange presence. Lil Pagoda tilted its head and looked
with puzzlement at this piece of red rock.
Zuo Mo instantly received the information Lil Pagoda passed over and rushed over, since Lil
Pagoda was connected to Zuo Mo.
Hm, this rock is strange. Zuo Mo went over and tapped it.
The red rock was the size of a table and appeared like a piece of red jade, spreading threads of
warmth. However, what was most unique was that it contained strong vitality. If one came close,
they could make out the sound of a heartbeat.
Was this something alive? Zuo Mo felt it was so fantastical. After circling the rock and thinking
hard, he couldnt think of what this red rock really was.
Pu Yao, what is this? Zuo Mo ran over to ask Pu Yao.

Pu Yao sat in front of the gravestone and resting, acting as if he was ignoring Zuo Mo.
Seeing Pu Yaos state. Zuo Mo understood that this guy was in a mood. However, he had long
forgotten what he had done.
A real man could bow and scrape, ge will endure.
Zuo Mo piled on the smiles, Pu Yao, you are a honored Sky Yao, what are you doing holding a
grudge against a little character like me? Ge oh no, if this little brother has done something
wrong, please have tolerance.
Pu Yaos eyes were still closed, and there was no movement, but Zuo Mo noticed that Pu Yaos
spine had straightened slightly.
It worked!
Pu Yao, you are a millennia old Sky yao! The breadth of your mind, the composure, it is as wide
as the sky, as deep as the ocean, your knowledge, your
Okay okay! Stop with the flattery! Pu Yaos expression was impatient, but the smile at the
corner of his mouth revealed his pleased mood.
Zuo Mo mocked him inside. As expected of a thousand year antique. He bent under just this little
bit of flattery. He piled on a fawning smile, Some guidance?
Hm. Pu Yao gave a light cough before slowly drawling, Its not embarrassing that you havent
seen this before. There arent many xiuzhe that have seen it. This is Fire Sickle Rock. After
absorbing the essence of moon and sun for a long time, it has born an intelligence. If nothing had
changed in Little Mountain Jie, this piece of Fire Sickle Rock would just be an earthly treasure
about fifth-grade.
Then now? Zuo Mo perceptively asked.
Presently, the ling energy of Little Mountain Jie has withered, and the power of the chaos has
risen. But since this piece of Fire Sickle Rock has an intelligence, it couldnt absorb ling power
so it absorbed the power of chaos instead.
Zuo Mo didnt understand. Power of chaos?
Chaos is the originator of all power. No matter if it is xiuzhe, yao or mo, power comes from
chaos. But because everyone walks a different path, the result is completely different. What
yaomo do is to go with the flow, while xiuzhe chose to resist. The ling power of the xiuzhe is a
natural enemy to the power of chaos.
You mean he became a yaomo? Zuo Mo pointed at the rock and asked with shock.
Become yao. Pu Yao was clearly smug. There is a fire yao being nurtured here, but before it
comes out, I dont know what kind of fire yao. The intelligent souls of flora will become yao, the
intelligent souls of wild beasts will become mo. If you throw ling beasts into a place like Bloody
Sky Metropolis Jie, and after corrosion by the power of chaos, it will become mo.
Zuo Mo was slightly disappointed. So its just a yao, then shouldnt I kill the yaomo?
Pu Yaos face instantly became black, Who are you killing?
Zuo Mo shook. He remembered the guy in front of him was a Sky Yao. He smiled, Joke, joke!
He then said, Im just too disappointed. I thought I dug up a treasure, and didnt expect it was
something useless.
Who says it is useless? Pu Yao was clearly slightly excited. You just dont know it! Treasure,
hmph, even if it was put in front of you, you wont recognize it.
Then what is the use? Zuo Mo hurriedly asked.
Pu Yao closed his mouth and made a proud posture.
Zuo Mo wasnt tricked. He took out a flying sword from the ring, and moved it to the Fire Sickle
Rock. If I cant use it, I cant let other people have it. So lets kill it.

Seeing the situation, Pu Yao said, Fire yao isnt too different than your ling beasts. You can use
some of its abilities.
Oh, so thats it, but I dont know how.
Just drip blood. Once Pu Yao finished, he knew he was tricked.
As expected, Zuo Mo cheerfully turned the flying sword and swiped across his finger. He
squeezed out a drop of blood onto the Fire Sickle Rock.
Translator Ramblings: Zuo Mo has learned. Threats and flattery used together. Pu Yao lost this
round.
WanderingGummmiOfDoom pointed out that what the yao did in corrupting the ling veins
creates more yao. Its not a bad strategy if you think about it. Its essentially colonizing the place
but Im not sure that there are that many potential fifth-grade materials lying about.
Poor Jiang Wei, he has to root for the person who defeated him. I think Fang Xiang is using him
as the voice of the other xiuzhe. If Jiang Wei who fought Zuo Mo before is (reluctantly) rooting
for Zuo Mo, there is definitely other people out there doing the same.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Eighty Three Lil Fire
This chapter has been brought to you by me and WanderingGummiOfDOom.
Chapter Two Hundred and Eighty Three Lil Fire
The red light of the Fire Sickle Rock exploded forth, and the temperature rose drastically.
After a while, the red light started to flicker, and with a light sound, a burning flame rose out of
the Fire Sickle Rock. The flame was extremely hot. Zuo Mo was slightly shocked. Right now, his
Jade Metal Head was in third maturation, but he could just barely tolerate such a high
temperature. If it was a normal xiuzhe, they probably would have to activate their ling armor to
hold up.
Such a powerful fire!
A copper puppet was unable to avoid it and started to melt.
Zuo Mo stared at the burning Fire Sickle Rock. Suddenly, an unfamiliar voice passed into his
mind.
Cheep cheep cheep!
Even though he could not understand, but Zuo Mo could feel the closeness and joy it passed on.
He couldnt help but grin.
The vitality coming from the Fire Sickle Rock inside the flame became even stronger. He could
clearly feel something alive inside it. After burning for two whole hours, the Fire Sickle Rock
suddenly split from the middle. A red shadow shot out rapidly.
The fire shadow suddenly stopped in front of Zuo Mo. He finally managed to see this fire yao. It
was the size of a fist, shaped like a ball of fire as it continued to chirp. It happily flew nimbly
around Zuo Mo.
Youll be called Lil Fire. Zuo Mo made up a name on the spot. Lil Fire seemed to understand
and was even happier, chirping continuously.
Lil Pagoda was curious and timidly came over.
Lil Fire was not shy, and quickly started to play with Lil Pagoda. The pagoda and fire flew
quickly in the air as they chased after each other. Zuo Mos mood was very good. The scene in

front of him made him feel very warm inside. Even if Lil Fire didnt have any spells, he felt it
was alright.
After a while, a grey figure flashed into the cave like lightning.
It was Silly Bird with Lil Black on top of her head. She elegantly reached out with her bird
claws and gently landed on the ground. When Lil Pagoda saw Silly Bird, it was even more
excited. It took the little brother it just met and ran in front of Silly Bird. Lil Fire circled around
Silly Bird in curiosity. At this moment, Silly Bird was like a big sister. She used her long bird
beak to nudge Lil Fire.
Lil Fire was like a rubber ball as it flipped through the air. It became even more excited and
chirped.
Seeing the little ones interacting harmoniously, Zuo Mo was even happier. The only thing that
caused discontent was Silly Bird. From the moment this one landed, she didnt even look at him
properly.
This brat! Zuo Mo gritted his teeth but couldnt do anything. He didnt know what had happened,
but she was even faster than his flying sword. He couldnt do anything to her.
What are you playing around for? Go work! Zuo Mo glared at Lil Pagoda.
Lil Pagoda, that was playing happily, instantly withered, dejectedly directing the puppets to start
mining.
Little brat, dare to fight against ge! Zuo Mo left in satisfaction.
When Zuo Mo left, the four little ones gathered together again as they chatted.
Lil Black quickly climbed down from Silly Birds head, moving its short legs like a wisp of
black smoke to quickly circle around the cave, its antennae waving. After a while, it stopped on a
piece of rock in the cave. It waved its antennae at the other three, and then flipped its short legs,
running off the rock.
Silly Bird made a small jump and spread her wings. With a fierce flap, a sharp howl suddenly
sounded inside the cave. Like a flash of grey lightning, it struck the rock that Lil Black had
pointed out.
The hard rock was like a piece of tofu as Silly Bird pierced through it like a sharp arrow.
A large hole appeared in the rock.
After a while, a grey shadow flew out of it. Silly Bird stopped in the air, shook off the shards of
rock, and resumed her elegant composure.
Lil Fire chirped and turned into a thread of fire, burrowing into the deep cave that Silly Bird
bored out.
After a while, countless threads of fire criss-crossed in the cave like a red spiderweb. After a
while, Lil Fire wavered drunkenly as it flew out of the cave.
Rumble rumble!
Large pieces of rock continued to fall like it was raining. In a moment, the tunnel was filled with
pieces of rock. Lil Pagoda happily turned in the air, and the copper puppets instantly leapt over.
After a short while, the ore was piled up in mountains.
The four little ones started to play again, the cheerful chirping of Lil Fire echoing in the tunnels.

The third cadet hall. Lei Peng smacked his lips. Hee hee, Lil Miss is serious this time.

Nian Lu took out a mirror, and combed his bangs that had been blown into disorder by the wind.
He said, Its a pity there arent any female xiu. Without their furious shouts, Im really not used
to it. Such a waste of the beautiful scene that is I.
Lei Peng ignored him and said, With Lil Miss personality, since he decided to act, he definitely
wouldnt be hitting the cadet branches just to vent. Who do you think that we are going to attack
next?
There were many people that also had the same question as Lei Peng. Xie Shan was one of those.
Ma Fan held a stalk of grass in his mouth as he lazily laid on the ground. If it was me, Id hit the
reinforcements.
The reinforcements? Xie Shan had a thoughtful expression. As the two most offensively
powerful people of Vermillion Bird Camp, their relationship had gradually deepened. Ma Fan
had many ideas. After being the core for a while, his perspective when looking at a problem was
very different than normal xiuzhe.
En. Weve attacked so many of their cadet halls, the Outer Hall certainly wouldnt rest. They
will definitely send people to attack us. Ma Fan had a thoughtful expression and said, We dont
have many people. If we end up surrounded by the enemy, our days will end. We need space, we
need to continuously pull along the enemy so we have opportunities.
Xie Shans eyes lit up, clapping his hands as he praised, Right! This way, we will slowly
consume the enemy.
Ma Fan smiled and said, We can think of it, how can Lil Miss not think of it? Dont worry, Im
not sure about other places, but there definitely is no one in Little Mountain Jie that can defeat
Lil Miss.
Ha ha, Xie Shan said with a smile, thats true.
How long do you have until jindan? Ma Fan suddenly asked.
I dont know, but I feel that I will breakthrough soon. As expected, combat is the best training,
Xie Shan said with a smile.
After jindan? Where are you going? Ma Fan said with slight gravity.
You dont need to feel me out, Xie Shan smiled and said, Ill definitely still follow Boss.
Actually, Im slightly curious.
Curious about what? Ma Fan asked.
Im curious how far Boss can really go. Xie Shan looked into the distance.
Just because of this? I dont believe it. Ma Fan shook his head.
Of course that isnt all of it. Ive gradually come to understand just how much Im worth. Boss
is a pretty good boss, and I feel that Boss has a good future. Xie Shan listed with his fingers,
Talented, hard-working, humble. Most importantly, young. Way too young! Its the first time
Ive met such a powerful person. Boss origins are probably not as simple as we think. Adding on
Lil Miss, and the band of brothers we have now, its nothing to just conquer a territory and live a
good life.
He laughed self-mockingly. Ive been the leader before, it isnt easy being the leader. I feel that
it is pretty good right now, I get all my benefits, I dont have to worry about any problems, and
can do anything that is needed. My progress in this past half-year is more than the progress of the
last three years combined.
Ma Fan didnt speak, but his expression lessened.
Dont worry, I guarantee that the none of the brothers now will leave, Xie Shans voice was
filled with confidence.
Ma Fan chewed the grass stalk and made a sound of acknowledgement.

Suddenly, a sharp bugle call sounded.


Lets go, its time to work!

He Xiang was extremely busy. He hadnt had good sleep in these days. He hadnt expected the
mysterious troop that suddenly appeared behind him to be this slippery. He had sent a troop to
kill them, but after two days, he received the unexpected news that a cadet hall was destroyed.
With anger, he sent out another troop.
The others movement was hard to predict. After a few days, another piece of news came
through. A cadet hall located extremely far away had been massacred.
After that, every one to two days, he would receive the bad news that a certain cadet hall had
been destroyed.
The news seemed to spread through Little Mountain Jie like it had wings. Their progress
instantly became much harder. The factions that had thought of submitting to the Outer Hall
started to hesitate.
The Outer Hall could not be stopped, but clearly, that mysterious troop also could not be stopped.
The news that the cadet halls were attacked spread through all the cadet halls. Each hall had
prepared, but they could not stop this mysterious force.
From this, it was possible to see the power of this force!
But the factions couldnt bear to surrender the territory that they had won through hard work. If
they lost these territories, and they were swallowed by the Outer Hall, they wouldnt have any
leverage to negotiate.
These factions instantly found it hard to advance or retreat.
As the advance of the Outer Hall met resistance, the pressure on He Xiang and the others bodies
increased heavily.
We need to find their base! In the time of ten short days, He Xiang seemed like a completely
different person. His entire face was shockingly thin. It definitely isnt the matter of a few days
to train such a strong force. If we can find their base, then they will definitely be forced to go
back. At that time, we can surround them.
But weve searched for so long, and there hasnt been any news! an elder said.
Just at this time, an elder suddenly stumbled in. I found them! I found them!
All the elders abruptly stood up.
Where?
What place?
All of you, shut up! He Xiang shouted sharply. Instantly, everyone obediently close their
mouths. In this short period of time, He Xiang had successfully built up his authority. It truly
wasnt luck that the Old Forefather had picked him.
The elder that charged in was flushed and extremely excited. Let me first show you something!
He Xiang suppressed the irritation inside.
A black meditation mat was placed in front of everyone. The elders hurriedly came over and
examined it. They all recognized good things, and instantly saw the trick. All of them inhaled
sharply.
They werent dumb. This little meditation mat was a decisive influence on the situation of Little
Mountain Jie.

This is a talisman produced by a place called Golden Crow City. I probably dont need to
introduce the abilities. Golden Crow City is at the Sky Star Peak. After a group occupied it, they
built a city.
Everyone couldnt help but inhale sharply again.
Built a city!
Im not sure who the true master is, but Elder He is definitely very familiar with their chief
business manager.
He Xiangs expression changed. Who is it?
Bao Yi!
The elders faces instantly became strange. He Xiangs face instantly became heavy.
According to the xiuzhe, they once saw a troop leave Golden Crow City at night. Less than one
thousand people, the elder said, so thats why I suspect it is them. Now, all the xiuzhe in the jie
are moving there. If we dont defeat it soon, if this meditation mat continues to sell, our future
days wont be easy.
Everyones expression instantly became heavy.
He Xiang stood up, his expression vicious. Attack Golden Crow City!
Translator Ramblings: Some of you have jumped way ahead in your guesses by about thirty
chapters or so.
Zuo Mo gets a new pet and doesnt know how smart his little compatriots are. But he probably
doesnt have the time to worry about how much jingshi he is losing. They are getting their
revenge on Zuo Mo by denying him jingshi and materials.
Im just going to add when Pu Yao said one hundred well-trained ningmai, he means well-trained
to his standards. While Vermillion Bird Camp is pretty strong compared to everyone else, they
have been training for less than a year, and Gongsun Cha has said before that from war chess, he
knows it takes multiple years for an army to be trained and have preliminary combat experience.
That might be for yaomo but it may also apply for xiuzhe.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Eighty Four Great Formation!
This chapter has been brought to you by me, and WanderingGummiOfDoom
Chapter Two Hundred and Eight Four Great Formation!
In an enormous and deep pit, Zuo Mo continuously dug down.
The hole above his head seemed to be palm-sized. The depth of this place was fifty zhang below
ground level. The pit was about one zhang in radius. The female xiu stood nearby. Looking up,
the height of fifty zhang was enough to make one feel suffocated.
Suddenly, Zuo Mo stopped his movements, a surprised and joyful expression on his face.
Lets go up, he said to the female xiu. Even though the female xiu couldnt hear, but he still
said it. Then he started to fly up, the female xiu followed closely behind him.
As he flew up to the entrance of the hole, Zuo Mo stopped and took a deep breath.
With all his power, he punched out a Sky Glass Wave!
A glass-like fist brutally entered the pit, and smashed heavily on the bottom.
Boom!
Bright red lava sprouted out, continuously sprouting up like an ancient wild beast released from
its cage. From far away, Zuo Mo was still able to feel a burning presence rush against his face.

The deep red lava would occasionally spit out flames. Facing the power of nature, Zuo Mos
expression couldnt help but change. If he accidentally got caught by the earth fire, unless he had
jindan cultivation, his bones would not survive.
Other than shock, joy also made its way onto his face.
He pulled the female xiu as he kept on flying up. The lava finally reached the surface. This place
was the core of the big formation Zuo Mo had set up. The deep red viscous lava slowly flowed.
As it flowed into the tunnels, the formations on the walls of the tunnel started to light up.
Zuo Mo finally could not stop himself from showing a smile!
He had succeeded!
Finally succeeded!
Right above his head, Golden Crow City suddenly lit up in the night. Countless golden lights like
golden fish leaping against the current flew into the sky above Golden Crow City. These small
golden energies spread and gathered above Golden Crow City.
All the people in Golden Crow City were alarmed by such a loud change. They all walked out of
the buildings, raising their faces to look at the golden energies covering the sky!
The xiuzhe that were skilled in formations all changed expressions. They could occasionally see
the shadow of formations in those golden energies that swam like fish. Was this some powerful
formation? This was so unfathomable! They didnt know what kind of formation could create
such a world-shaking apparition.
The large factions that had camped outside the camp were also disturbed.
What is that?
Is it some treasure coming out of the ground?
In the dark of the night, Golden Crow Citys lights grew dramatically. It was covered in a
blinding golden cage of light like a sun against the black sky.
Such vast craftsmanship! On a mountain peak, a bearded middle-aged person sighed with
shock. Beside him was a stocky large male.
How so? the large male asked.
This city most likely is hiding a very powerful formation. This presence clearly is the scene that
occurs when a large formation has just formed. When we entered the city yesterday, I had found
that the materials used in the city are extremely special. Daren definitely cannot guess it, the
middle-aged person said with a smile.
Oh, what kind of high-level material did it use? The large male was slightly curious.
It is just the opposite of what Daren is thinking. The bricks used in the city are just normal
bluestone.
How is it possible? the large male paused and then shook his head. If blue stone can create
such an impenetrable city, Little Mountain Jie should be covered in cities.
Ha ha, it is bluestone, but this blue stone has been forged in Golden Crow Fire. The middleaged person grinned.
So thats why! The large male finally understood.
Admiration floated onto the face of the middle-aged person. This person is very clever. Even
though the city is small, the method he really used is forging methods.
Forging methods? Did he think of Golden Crow City like a talisman? The large male was
stunned again.
Exactly. All of Golden Crow City is covered in formations. All of the buildings are connected
into one entity by formations. It forms a situation where all of them prosper or fall together.
During the day, the sunlight will form a pillar of light and enter the city. Has Daren noticed it?

Is there something about that too?


The sunlight contains slight amounts of Golden Crow Fire which is continuously absorbed by
Golden Crow City. Over time, this city would become even purer. Isnt this a forging method?
The eyes of the middle-aged person flashed as he sighed in praise. The daylight is good, but it
requires time. This city master clearly cannot wait that long. If I am not wrong, he should be
using earth fire to temper this city. This is why this subordinate calls it great craftsmanship.
Using earth fire to temper this city? The expression on the large males face was slightly
stunned. After a beat, he shook his head and said, I hadnt thought that such powerful people
were hiding in Little Mountain Jie. Someone this powerful. If I just let them slip by, I am not
satisfied. What does Teacher think, can we hire them?
The middle aged man shook his head. It is good that Daren is desirous of those with virtues.
However, I see that this person already has his own power. He actually has battle generals. His
origins are probably not simple. Even more, Darens command posts have been filled. If we get
him, where shall we put him?
Hearing this, the large male paused for a while before sighing.
Daren doesnt have to be sorrowful, the middle-aged person comforted. Our sects power is
vast, and full of resources. We only need Daren to first establish himself in the sect. It is not
difficult for Daren to find talented people. This time, the sect leaders intentions of nurturing
Daren is evident through sending Daren to investigate the affairs of Little Mountain Jie. Daren
only has to complete his duty. There is no need to feel frustration over one person.
Teacher is right. The large mans expression turned normal. Then anger was evident on his
face. Hmph, Clear Sky Old man is too daring, he dares to ruin a jie so, he doesnt want to live.
What he had seen on the way here was peerlessly cruel.
Now that the news has spread, his days wont be easy. The middle-aged mans eyes flashed
with a cold light. It is retribution that his disciple was killed. This one speculates other factions
will soon enter.
The large male suddenly said. Do you think that it might be the people inside that killed Huang
Zhuo Guang? He pointed at Golden Crow City.
The middle-aged person paused, and then his mind moved. It is possible! However, this doesnt
have much to do with us. He thought, and said as he shook his head, We have our business to
attend to. The appearance of Stars in Daytime is a rare opportunity for Daren. Darens luck is not
bad.
They had been sent to investigate the matter of the yao army appearing in Little Mountain Jie,
and to find the chaos rift. They hadnt expected to encounter the apparition of Stars in Daytime
in the middle.
But we do not have any results even now, the large male said helplessly.
We can proceed slowly, rushing does not help. The middle-aged person also had no solution.
Little Mountain Jie had become a mess. The unprecedented moves that the Outer Hall has made
and the sudden rise of Golden Crow City had caused the two to become the most popular topic of
Little Mountain Jie. All kinds of information were continuously passed out. Only one-third of the
Outer Halls cadet halls still remained.
Not two days after that, they heard that mysterious troop had successively defeated three troops
of reinforcements the Outer Hall had sent out.
The xiuzhe that had been defeated and fled all described the power of this troop. The fear still
lingering on their faces became the most convincing evidence. The news quickly spread, and the

Outer Hall, in complete reversal of its usual attitude, gathered its power and advanced
continuously towards Golden Crow City.
Those that had the slightest smarts instantly realized the connection between the mysterious
troop and Golden Crow City.
The factions positioned between the two forces quickly relocated behind Golden Crow Citys
location. Everyone was waiting to see the clash between the two major factions.
The clash this time would be the clash between the two strongest factions of Little Mountain Jie.
Nothing more had to be said about the Outer Hall. Even though they had lost three thousand
people, but they still had an enormous troop of more than seven thousand people. This enormous
troop was like a juggernaut. All factions that dared to resist in its path were crushed under them
completely with the weight of Mount Tai.
Golden Crow City leapt into view. In tens of days, it had jumped to become an existence just
below the Outer Hall. Golden Crow Fire, Black Processing Meditation mat, the thirty six
formation battle watchtowers, and the mysterious troop had caused Golden Crow City to become
the center of Little Mountain Jie.
Golden Crow City seemed to not feel the pressuring steps of the Outer Hall. It still was furiously
selling Black Processing Meditation mats. This also caused it to become an essential stop for the
xiuzhe that were retreating. Everyone did everything within their abilities to buy Black
Processing Meditation mats.
Black Processing Meditation mats might be expensive, but compared to ling grains, it had too
many benefits.
In the midst of it all, many factions suggested they could help defend the city, but Bao Yi adeptly
refused them. This caused everyone to be even more curious. After they bought the Black
Processing Meditation mats, they didnt leave, but set up bases behind Golden Crow City.
Looking from far away, it was not possible to see the end of the densely packed xiuzhe behind
Golden Crow City. Half of all the xiuzhe of Little Mountain Jie had gathered here. They wanted
to personally see this rare clash between titans.
The result of this clash would directly relate to their future life.
Privately, about eight-tenths of the xiuzhe favored the Outer Hall. The terrifying power of seven
thousand xiuzhe combined made everyone fearful. Even if that mysterious troop belonged to
Golden Crow City, but their numbers were too few. They could be used to harass, but they were
not able to be significantly effective, especially with Clear Sky Old Forefather, a jindan, standing
guard.
They were just curious how long Golden Crow City could withstand the Outer Halls attack.
But contrary to everyones expectations, the Outer Hall started to slow down its advance.While
the speed of the armys advancement slowed, the pressure only made them feel more suffocated.
Those that had some knowledge understood the Outer Hall was resting up and preparing for the
final battle.
Golden Crow City still performed business as usual. Many of the xiuzhe behind the city were
sighing. If Golden Crow City really landed in the hands of the Outer Hall, it really was good for
them. No one could determine how much wealth Golden Crow City really had, but the items
definitely were piled up in mountains.
Black Processing Meditation mats were not cheap!
Golden Crow City was the wealthiest place in the present Little Mountain Jie.
After opening the flow of earth fire, Zuo Mo became idle. Half of his heart had landed when the
formation was finished.

A big battle was coming up, but he was not panicked, instead he acted calm and casual. When
each person saw Boss was so composed, the nervous atmosphere instantly relaxed to the highest
degree. Everyones enthusiasm quickly grew.
As long as Boss was here, they didnt have to worry about anything.
Zuo Mo flew to the formation battle watchtower.
The thirty-six formation battle watchtowers had become the busiest places. The Eastern and
Western Camps were nervously training before the battle. They were all clear they were the main
force in the battle to defend the city this time.
Each person was rubbing their hands and furiously trained. If they performed well, they may
even be promoted to Vermillion Bird Camp. That was the place that everyone in the Eastern and
Western Camps yearned to go into. This battle was their best chance.
Zuo Mo exchanged a greeting with the commanders of the Eastern and Western Camps, and flew
to the highest level.
He had come this time to look at the Lightning Sonic Walnuts that had been nurtured in the
formation battle watchtowers.
Translator Ramblings: Were getting closer and closer this is like the Sword Test
Conference, Fang Xiang needs to put down preparations before the fight.
Some more people have arrived to look at the spectacle and even more people have come for the
Stars in Daytime. Zuo Mo, do you know how much jingshi is being spent to search for you?

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Eighty Five Comprehensions Gained
From Forging
This chapter has been brought to you by me, and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter Two Hundred and Eighty Five Comprehensions Gained From Forging
Sonic Lightning Walnuts, fourth-grade, hard, righteous, and breaks evil.
Before this, Zuo Mo didnt have many fourth-grade materials on his hands, and did not
understand much about fourth-grade materials. The amount of jade scrolls and old records that
talked about fourth-grade materials were pitifully flew in places like Sky Moon Jie and Little
Mountain Jie.
Fourth-grade materials were so valuable that normal people rarely were able to even see them.
Only sects with some power could use them for practice and gain experience. Wu Kong Sword
Sect clearly didnt number among these sects. Zuo Mo had memorized many jade scrolls, but
there were just a few phrases that related to fourth-grade materials, and most of them were
vague.
As the amount of fourth-grade materials on his hands increased, he gradually learned some
things.
The biggest difference between fourth and third-grade materials were in their formations. The
natural formations on fourth-grade materials were of higher-level, more complete and complex,
than that of third-grade materials.
Zuo Mo didnt know if the predecessors of xiuzhe had learned formations from materials, and
only sighed at the wonders of creation.

The forging skill level of a xiuzhe could be said to be a measure of the degree the xiuzhe could
activate the natural formations of the material. The formation techniques of fourth-grade
talismans had a close connection with the natural formations of materials used.
After being nurtured by hard lightning in this period of time, the Sonic Lightning Walnuts looked
like rotten silver, its surface carved with pits and grooves. It was heavy in his hand, even with its
volume having shrunk. However, it was covered in the light of dense blue lightning so to hold it
Zuo Mo had to use his ling power to cover his palm.
When he inspected it, he instantly felt the lightning element inside. Zuo Mo gaped.
This Sonic Lightning Walnut was something good, but it was very dangerous. If he wasnt
careful when forging it could explode and easily harm him.
He recalled Pu Yao had suggested he use the method for yin fire beads to forge the Sonic
Lightning Walnuts. However, he had been so busy previously he hadnt thought about it. After
some thought, he seemed to understand. Pu Yao would never do anything meaningless but what
he suggested didnt always work.
There were many methods listed in the [Yin Fire Bead Chapter] to forge yin fire beads. Zuo Mo
was always astonished by the variety of yin fire beads. Due to being unable to find a yin fiend
ground, he couldnt make yin fire beads so he had thrown the jade scroll to the side.
Now that his knowledge was far better than before, he had a completely new experience when he
reread the jade scroll.
Gradually, a sliver of understanding formed.
The most important part of the yin fire bead creation methods was a place he hadnt noticed
before, it must be forged with yin fire. Yin beads had an attribute of yin so the forging fire had to
be yin as well. The Stalagmite fire Zuo Mo had before was yin.
Technically, when the attributes were the same, the two should feed off each other and gradually
merge into one entity. The most wondrous part of the [Yin Fire Bead Chapter] was that it could
let the two stay in a kind of semi-merged state, the most explosive state.
Zuo Mo was intoxicated with such a wondrous transformation. He didnt know how the elder
who had created the yin fire bead had thought of such a wondrous spell.
If he was to use the yin fire bead method to forge Sonic Lightning Walnuts, then he needed to use
purely yang fire. It was perfect for Zuo Mo. The Golden Crow Fire on his hands was one of the
best of pure yang fires.
However, he needed a help. Sonic Lightning Walnuts were fourth-grade, and were much higher
grade than the yin beads he had created in the past.
Zuo Mos mind suddenly moved. He thought of Lil Fire and Lil Pagoda.
Lil Fire was a fire yao, and Lil Pagoda had all five elements in one body, and could control fire.
He was connected mentally to Lil Paogda. When his mind moved, Lil Pagoda knew. In a short
while, Lil Pagoda led Lil Fire to fly to the formation battle watchtowers. Silly Bird also
followed with Lil Black.
When Lil Fire flew into the formation battle watchtower, it floated around in the air like a firered ball, playing happily by itself. Lil Pagoda was at the side silently listening to Zuo Mo talk.
Zuo Mo took out more than ten mini boxes from his ring. These were the Golden Crow Fires that
he had especially held on to. The rest had all been sold. Golden Crow Fire was not difficult for
him to gather, but he didnt have the time right now.
Lil Fire who had been flipping in the air sudden froze. When it saw the mini boxes, it instantly
gave happy chirping sounds. It turned into a fire wisp and leapt at the mini boxes. There was a
smell of flame that came from inside it and was a fatal attraction for Lil Fire.

Zuo Mo didnt stop it, and saw it swallow all the mini boxes in one gulp.
He instantly gaped, his hand frozen in the air.
After a while, he recovered. The first thought in his mind was, this was another glutton!
Lil Pagoda wasnt angry, and skipped around Lil Fire.
The round body of Lil Fire instantly became even rounder like a red bubble. Suddenly, a
fingernail-sized gold star appeared on its forehead.
However, upon closer inspection, Zuo Mo couldnt tell if it was Lil Fires forehead. This guy
was way too round.
He stared at Lil Fire for a while. Nothing seemed to happen to Lil Fire.
Lil Fire continued to cheerfully chirp and play with Lil Pagoda in the air. Lil Pagoda would use
the tip of the pagoda to poke Lil Fire, and Lil Fire would nudge Lil Pagoda with its round
body. The two little ones clearly were having fun, causing Lil Blacks antennae to wave in the
air as it watched from the side, wanting to join in.
Zuo Mo stared tightly at Lil Fire.
There still wasnt a change
After playing for a while, Lil Fire noticed Zuo Mo staring at it, and gave a cheerful chirp. It flew
into Zuo Mos embrace, and snuggled around.
Zuo Mo reached to grab this guy. The round body was really like a bubble, warm and soft.
However, Zuo Mo clearly was not moved by its fawning. Reaching to grab Lil Fire, he dangled
it in front of his eyes, and squeezed Lil Fire into all kinds of shapes, gritting through his teeth,
Little brat, you swallowed that much Golden Crow Fire, but theres no change? Do you know
how many jingshi that was? You ate so much jingshi with one gulp
Lil Pagodas body shook and it silently started to float away. Lil Black that had been wanting to
join in the fun suddenly stopped moving its antennae. The calmest one was Silly Bird.
Zuo Mos rage could not be stopped. He had originally planned on giving Lil Pagoda and Lil
Fire one each, and hadnt expected this guy to clean him out with one gulp, and not even leaving
the boxes behind.
Can you breathe fire? Zuo Mo said, full of killing intent. No? You dont know how to breathe
fire? You dare to not know? Do you know how much jingshi
Lil Fire hurriedly spat out a little wisp of flame on his hands.
Hm! You do know how to breathe fire! Zuo Mos face instantly became curious, and he put
Lil Fire in front of him. He inspected it carefully, speaking to himself. You dont have any
orifices, where did you breathe it out?
Lil Fires fleshy body instantly froze.
Lil Pagoda instantly raised its eaves to cover its face. The entire pagoda was bright red like a
cooked shrimp.
After studying for a while, Zuo Mo still didnt have any results. He decided to not waste any
more time. He really was grasping at straws when he had hoped this crowd of gluttons could be
of help.
He should never have any illusions about these gluttons
Zuo Mos heart was bleeding. So much jingshi was gone
The four quickly left for the mine as though they were being pardoned.
Zuo Mo decided to do it by himself. However, he didnt dare to experiment on the formation
battle watchtower. If he wasnt careful, the entire tower would be bombed into dust. He picked a
third-grade lucky cloud from the stores, sat on it and slowly floated into the sky.

The lucky cloud was extremely soft like cotton. Basically no one except hedonists used it.
Compared to ling beasts and flying swords, its flying speed was too slow. However, there were
some high-grade lucky clouds that were extremely fast, like the famous Flying Nimbus. Among
fifth-grade steeds, its speed was in the top ten. The lucky cloud might be slow, but there was a
benefit. It did not need to be controlled to stay afloat.
This ball of lucky cloud was the size of his palm. When it was thrown out, it instantly grew to
about ten zhang in radius. It could hold many people so the female xiu stood at a distance not far
from him. Zuo Mo ignored the dense populace of xiuzhe that were camping on the mountains.
With the formation battle watchtowers and the female xiu present, he didnt have to worry about
people interrupting his forging.
He took out the Sonic Lightning Walnut, spat out the Golden Crow Fire, and started to forge.
The most important part of the yin fire bead forging was to freeze the state of the yin bead and
the yin fire in the instant before they merged.
In front of Zuo Mo, a thread of Golden Crow Fire enveloped the Sonic Lightning Walnut.
After two whole hours, the Golden Crow Fire finally removed the layer of hard lightning on the
exterior of the walnut and revealed the true seed of the Sonic Lightning Walnut. After another
hour, the creased surface of the silver walnut started to show signs of melting. The silver liquid
flowed slowly along the patterns of the walnut.
The thick lightning element made Zuo Mos heart beat rapidly as though he was on thin ice.
Fourth-grade materials were as extraordinary as expected!
Zuo Mos mind was deeply immersed in this forging process, but it was also a rare chance for
him to learn. Both the Golden Crow Fire and the Sonic Lightning Walnut were rare fourth-grade
materials.
When the two merged, they gave rise to many changes, most of which he had never seen before.
The natural formations on the Sonic Lightning Walnut were continuously broken in the forging
process and reformed like pieces of wooden blocks forming new pictures. Some were
formations, some were nonsense patterns. Forging needed the xiuzhe to choose and experience
the changes in the formations.
Different xiuzhe would gain experience through different changes, to comprehend different
things, but the underlying nature was the same.
Without this kind of experience, no matter how deep their cultivation was, how abundant the ling
power inside their body was, one still could not breakthrough to other stages and would still be
small and weak.
Zuo Mo was immersed in this mystical world. The feeling of walking on thin ice slowly
disappeared, and he forgot himself.
The flickering of the Golden Crow Fire in front of him suddenly slowed as though a wild stallion
had been tamed.
The Sonic Lightning Walnut also changed rapidly. The walnut patterns that had covered the
surface disappeared. It was entirely smooth like a perfect silver ball. Threads of Golden Crow
Fire burrowed into the silver ball and beautiful golden patterns started to float into the surface of
the silver ball.
The number of gold patterns increased like a golden vine furiously growing along the surface of
the Sonic Lightning Walnut.
Zuo Mo suddenly opened his eyes, the Sonic Lightning Walnut falling into his palm.
The golden patterns on it were complex like flowers that covered the surface of the silver ball. It
seemed like a normal silver ball without any of its presence exposed.

Translator Ramblings: The Outer Hall is on their way. Very confident and unhurried. They
have the advantage of numbers and the backing of the most powerful local person.
Im not going to touch what happened with Lil Fire but I do pity it for having ended up as Zuo
Mos pet in this chapter.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Eight Six Arrival!
This chapter has been brought to you by me and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter Two Hundred and Eighty Six Arrival!
Rong Wei watched the troop disappear into the horizon, her heart was filled with shock that she
could not voice.
After personally watching the entire battle, this troop of six or seven hundred people had left a
deep impression on her. The knife-sharp charges had caused her to momentarily think of turning
and fleeing
There was no challenge in the entire battle. It ended in an extremely short amount of time. This
troop was like a keen blade that dismembered the enemy in moments. Yes, other than
dismembering, she could not think of any other descriptor that could express the scene she saw.
Their opponent had been a troop of a thousand people.
The compound guards next to Rong Wei stared in disbelief with gaping mouths at the empty sky.
The scene just now had given them too much of a blow. The unstoppable and keen charges
pierced their hearts like a bolt of lightning!
The thousand man troop had seemed to be made out of paper-mache. With one clash, they had
shattered into pieces. Rong Wei had never thought that when the howls and sharp presences of
sword energies gathered together, that it could be so spectacular, so soul-stealing. Even they, the
spectators, felt their scalps prickle, their limbs cold. What must it like to be the troop that was
facing such a terrifying scene directly?
No one laughed at the troop that was defeated.
How could there be such a strong troop in Little Mountain Jie.
Even in Sky Water Jie, there were only one or two troops that were said to be at such a level.
Head, there are people following behind us, Xie Shan said to Gongsun Cha in a low voice.
Many of the people in the troop had noticed a troop of people following behind them. However,
they were not worried, just slightly curious. After fighting for so long, people who saw them
fight all fled with the wind. It was the first time they saw someone who followed them like this.
Gongsun Cha looked back. Oh, go ask.
Xie Shan admonished himself for being chatty. Wasnt that finding more work to do for himself?
However, since Lil Miss commanded it, he could only fly towards that troop.
Truthfully, Rong Weis heart was also very insecure. If the other unreasonably charged over to
kill without any cause, they could only flee. However, she noticed that the other side didnt seem
to be obsessed with killing, and hadnt pursued their enemies who had fled.
She was really too curious about this troop. She was very learned, and naturally could see the
bones of an army in this troop. She knew very well that building an army was not a simple battle.
The members had to be picked with thought, there had to be skilled members, and there were
enormous expenses
There were many sects in Sky Water Jie, but only two had an army.

She had followed the Marquis for many years, and knew the Marquis had had the notion for a
long time. However, he struggled with the problem of manpower. The only people that had the
abilities to build an army were battle generals, but only large sects had the abilities to groom
battle generals.
The compound guards under her command looked like the elite, but if they were compared, the
difference was instantly visible. Rong Weis eyes were not ordinary. She could see the average
power of the troops xiuzhe wasnt as high as the compound guards under her command.
But if the equal numbers of people were fighting, the ones to die first would be the compound
guards. She actually wanted to see if she could hire this battle general, or hire this entire troop.
But she knew that it was a fantasy. It clearly had been some time since this troop had formed. A
sect that didnt have some power wouldnt be able to support them, but since they had been
raised, then the sect supporting them definitely had power.
The possibility of hiring them was minuscule.
One reason that she had given the ordered to follow was curiosity. The other reason was that she
was clear that such a strong troop definitely was a significant power in Little Mountain Jie.
Even if she could not recruit them, it wasnt a bad choice to partner up with them.
Hadnt she been puzzled regarding the question of how they were to investigate Stars in
Daytime? If she partnered up with such a strong faction, it would be much easier to accomplish.
But the compound guards did not know Rong Weis thoughts. Each of them were shaking in their
boots, preparing to take Rong Wei and flee at any second.
Suddenly, someone from the troop up ahead flew towards them.
The compound guards instantly became nervous.
Rong Weis heart settled down. What she was most worried about was the other would kill
without asking any questions. Since the other had sent someone over, then it meant she had the
room to speak.
Who are you? Why are you following us? Xie Shan asked.
Rong Wei bowed and said, We are disciples from Sky Water Jies House of Marquis Wu, and
have come with an order to investigate the Stars in Daytime in Little Mountain Jie. Is it possible
to travel with your division? It is for safety. This is a small token of our appreciation, please take
it.
She took out some pieces of fourth-grade jingshi.
Xie Shan looked at the jingshi on her hands but did not take them. He nodded and said, Ill
report the request for you.
Finishing, he turned and went back to the troop.

To travel with us? Gongsun Cha was slightly surprised.


Or does she want to pursue one of us? Lei Peng snickered. At the side, Nian Lu shook his
bangs, and followed up, Who else other than me?
Everyone ignored them. Even Zong Ru couldnt bear to look at them. How had he been on the
same team as these two clowns before? So embarrassing.
Thats what she said, and they are from Sky Water Jies House of Marquis Wu, Xie Shan
continued.
Which of you have heard of them? asked Gongsun Cha.
We are all country people, whos been to Sky Water Jie, Ma Fan mocked.

What do you want to do? Xie Shan gazed at Gongsun Cha.


We dont have the time to tangle with them. Gongsun Cha shook his head.
Such a pity, that is a great beauty. Xie Shans tone was slightly teasing.
Gongsun Cha glanced at him and Xie Shan instantly shut up. Do not provoke Lil Miss,
otherwise, their outcome would be very tragic
A paper crane suddenly flew out of the sky and landed in Gongsun Chas hand. Opening the
paper crane and taking a quick look, Gongsun Chas expression changed slightly. The paper
crane was passed quickly onto the hands of other people. Everyones faces became grave.
No one joked, no one wasted words. The mood instantly became tense. The Vermillion Bird
Camp instantly organized their ranks and raced with their fastest speed to Sky Star Peak.

Rong Wei looked with astonishment at the troop that disappeared at the horizon. What was this?
The compound guards all released a breath. They had been scared half to death. A compound
guard carefully said to Rong Wei, Miss, theyve gone away.
Rong Wei woke from her trance, and responded, Follow them.
The compound guards that had just released a breath instantly grimaced. Rong Wei ignored them
and flew out first. The other people could only follow helplessly.

Zuo Mo opened his hand, and a lightning bullet twirled in his hand. This was the [Yang Fiendish
Hard Lightning] that he was so familiar. Yang Fiendish Hard Lightning required using the
consciousness to manipulate the sparse lightning power in the air to form hard lightning. Due to
the unique method, the hard lightning created was both extremely yang and hard.
Zuo Mo was extremely familiar with this move now. With one thought, the hard lightning would
form.
He continued to gather hard lightning, and then beat it to smithereens. He was experimenting.
The process of forging the Sonic Lightning Walnuts was very successful. He had comprehended
some methods for hard lightning, and hoped to merge these understandings into the spells that he
knew.
[Yang Fiendish Hard Lightning] was his primary attack move. It was faster than [Sky Wave Fist],
and was extremely powerful. The only flaw was that there was a lack of variation. When Zuo Mo
had comprehended those hard lightning formations, the first thing he thought of was [Yang
Fiendish Hard Lightning.]
Continuously adding comprehensions to spells was something every xiuzhe had to do. This was
also why disciples of the same sect would practice the same spells, but the results were different.
Each person had different comprehensions, and the road they walked was naturally different.
The lightning bullet continued to change in his palm. Suddenly, a net with a small mesh size
covered all of Zuo Mos palm, and then it suddenly turned into a lightning arrow. The lightning
arrow suddenly dissipated and turned to countless tiny lightning snakes. The snakes suddenly
gathered and turned to a lightning bird
Gradually, Zuo Mo felt he had gained greater control. The hard lightning on his hand seemed like
a part of his body and could change according to his thoughts.
Zuo Mo quickly judged the quality of each change.

Hard lightning heavily leaned towards offense and seemed to have almost no defensive power
when it turned to a lightning shield. When it became a lightning arrow or spear, it was
unstoppable. The other attribute of hard lightning was that it was extremely quick. It probably
was one of the fastest of all the spells.
Hard lightning was hard and ferocious, and extremely hard to compress. Zuo Mo had tried all he
could, but could not condense the lightning power even more. It was possible to see the value of
Sonic Lightning Walnuts from this. The amount of lightning power contained in Sonic Lightning
Walnuts was so much one couldnt imagine it.
After forging, the power of the Sonic Lightning Walnuts had increased. Zuo Mo was full of
anticipation about its power, but he didnt test it as he couldnt bear the loss.
Zuo Mo suddenly opened his eyes. Looking into the distance, a cold smile came onto his face.
He controlled the lucky cloud to slowly land in Golden Crow City. Once he landed, he stored
away the lucky cloud. Zuo Mos calm and unflustered state resolved some of the nervousness of
the xiuzhe in the two camps.
Everyone, pay attention. They have come, Zuo Mo shouted out.
Everyones hearts jumped. However, they had already prepared for battle, and lined up neatly.
The lights of the formation battle watchtowers started to light up one after the other.
The city gates slowly closed. All of the noise inside the city instantly disappeared.
The xiuzhe behind Golden Crow City also noticed it and started to shift.
The Outer Hall has come! The Outer Hall has come! Its going to begin!
Everyone, careful! If you see the situation isnt right, start running!
Haha! Ive never seen something as big as this, this is really broadening my vision.

The noise of the surroundings passed around. The middle aged person, the large male, and their
group also flew into the sky. Infected by the others around him, burning desire for battle lit up
suddenly in the eyes of the large male, and a slight blush came onto the face of the middle-aged
man.
Who had ever seen such a large-scale battle before?
You have to watch closely. This is a rare chance. Just a little bit will be enough to greatly benefit
you, the middle-aged man lectured the guards around him.
The large male knew the middle-aged man was actually reminding him. However, he was staring
fixedly at the distant horizon.
A large dense patch of black dots appeared on the horizon like a black cloud, and slowly flew
over.
The noisy xiuzhe all simultaneously inhaled sharply, the sky completely silent.
As the Outer Hall neared, everyones faces couldnt help but pale.
Seven thousand xiuzhe gathered in the sky like a flood that could not be stopped as it rolled
forward. It was not very fast, but the pressure that came with it made the people feel suffocated.
It seemed to be using this method to show its power to destroy everything!

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Eighty Seven Cloud Formation Silk
This chapter has been brought to you by me, and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter Two Hundred and Eighty Seven Cloud Formation Silk
As the army came closer, the xiuzhe on the formation battle watchtowers shifted, but quickly
calmed down.
The sun disappeared into the thick clouds, the sky darkened, and the air filled with the scent of
death.
Zuo Mo shook his head. In the end, the Eastern and Western Camps were too inexperienced.
Gongsun Shidi hadnt put his focus on these two camps. The two camps lacked greatly compared
to Vermillion Bird Camp.
He raised his hand and threw out the Buddha Sound Hoop.
As the golden Buddha Sound Hoop flew, it rose into the sky above Golden Crow City and turned
into a shining sun with numerous golden threads that dangling down tied onto the thirty six
formation battle watchtowers. Upon the golden thread were countless golden rings!
The Buddha Sound Hoop had been tempered by Golden Crow Fire and hard lightning. At this
time, its attributes matched with Golden Crow City and the formation battle watchtower. As it
rose, the scene was far more extraordinary than when he used it at Desolate Wood Reef. Zuo Mo
had put much effort into the placement of the thirty six formation battle watchtowers. Other than
being able to form [Skyring Moon Chime Formation] with the Buddha Sound Hoop, they could
form a formation on their own.
Zuo Mo was full of confidence for this battle.
This confidence was not in anything else but Golden Crow City. No one knew just how much
effort and thought he had put into this city that he had built with his own hands.
The dignified and stern Buddha Sound Formation seemed to be chanting into ones ear, yet
almost imperceptible at moments. The terror in the hearts of the xiuzhe in the city lessened.

What is this formation? Shock flashed across the eyes of the large male that was watching
from far away. This formations presence was not normal.
The middle-aged person narrowed his eyes. From what this subordinate sees, this formation
should originate from [Skyring Moon Chime Formation] but its attributes are exactly the
opposite. Domineering, hard and fierce, primarily for killing! This persons formations interlock
together and are very strong!
How so? The large male asked for guidance.
The middle-aged person explained, Daren please look. That golden hoop should be a Buddha
Sound Hoop.
Buddha Sound Hoop? The large male had not heard of it before. Is it powerful?
Its just a normal third-grade sound type talisman, but this Buddha Sound Hoop clearly has been
specially tempered. If this subordinate has not guess wrong, it should have been processed in fire
and lightning. This hoop has risen to fourth-grade already.
Oh, fourth-grade. The large male didnt seem to care. Fourth-grade talismans were rare, but
were not much to him.

This city masters thoughts are extremely clever. The power of the [Skyring Moon Chime
Formation] might be large, but setting up the formation is complex. This person used the
formation battle watchtowers as the base. This way, he only needs this Buddha Sound Hoop to
set up the formation at any time. Since this hoop has been process by fire and lightning, it is hard
and fierce. This city can also continuously provide fire and lightning. With this formation and the
formation battle watchtowers, Golden Crow City has become one body, and the power has been
multiplied many times. The middle-aged person could not disguise the admiration.
At this time, the large male finally understood, anticipation growing on his face.

Listening to the Buddha sounds, Zuo Mo looked at the army that had already entered twenty li of
Golden Crow City with a cold smile at the corner of his mouth.
Other than jindan, no one had ever heard of ningmai xiuzhe that could attack outside of twenty li.
The sword energies of ningmai sword xiu was not effective outside of three li. In other words, if
the other wanted to attack Golden Crow City, it must come within three li of the city.
But the attacking range of formation battle watchtowers was ten li. The hard lightning formation
battle watchtowers that Zuo Mo constructed had an astounding attack range of fifteen li.
Why were formation battle watchtowers still essential constructs for a city even though they
were so expensive and hard to build? Because of its great power. When Zuo Mo first constructed
Golden Crow City, all of his setup was for battle.
He had used almost any kind of attacking move he could think of on Golden Crow City.

When He Xiang and the rest of the Outer Hall elders saw Golden Crow City from a distance,
their faces were filled with amazement!
I hadnt really expected someone built a city!
Really hadnt expected it!
Greed was in every elders eyes. When a person first saw such an exquisite and beautiful Golden
Crow City, their first idea was to take it for themselves.
Only us Outer Hall has the qualifications to live in such a good place! He Xiang said firmly.
He couldnt wait for one second.
If they could take down this city, and make it the headquarters for the Outer Hall, how grand
would it be. Even Old Forefather wouldnt be able to calmly face such a city! He also heard there
were piles of valuable materials and talismans inside. This was a treasure city!
The other elders all gave their agreement. Each persons eyes were heated. The struggles they
had previously encountered were thrown to the back of their minds. At this moment, there was
only this city in their eyes, a city of the sun!
Who is going first? He Xiang turned and asked.
The elders all closed their mouths. They were not stupid. The presence of Golden Crow City was
heavy. The light coming from the large formation made all of their hearts shake slightly. In their
view, it was time to harvest. If they could take down Golden Crow City, they would definitely be
on the achievements list. However, if they died at this last step, it wasnt worth it.
The Buddha sounds floated from across the distance. The golden sun above Golden Crow City
also reminded them to be careful.

He Xiang knew these people very well. He smiled coldly inside, and said, The first person to
get into the city is the first to pick the spoils, they can pick three pieces.
The eyes of the elders instantly turned red.
With great rewards, there would always be brave ones!
With Golden Crow Citys wealthy, it was possible to imagine the richness of the spoils. The first
to pick, and to pick three items, it would at least be three fourth-grade talismans! No one could
remain unmoved by such a rich reward.
Who first? He Xiang asked again.
Me first!
Me first!
The elders instantly leap, their enthusiasm for battle growing. Even Second Elder who was
usually at odds with Chief Elder couldnt resist speaking.
Then we shall first trouble Second Elder! He Xiang said without showing his emotions.
Seeing Second Elder take his troops and joyfully prepare to attack, imperceptible smugness
flashed across He Xiangs eyes. He was very devious. When he saw Golden Crow City, he knew
this was a tough nut to crack. He was happy to see Second Elder willing to go die.
He Xiang was filled with confidence at taking down Golden Crow City. With this many people,
he could just drown the other side. By that time, he was certain he would have the spare energy
to plan some other affairs.

Among the elders, Second Elders rank in power was below He Xiang. He naturally understood
what He Xiang thought. He had his own confidence of success to dare to speak up.
He picked out one thousand and five hundred people in one go. Going with him were three
elders.
When Second Elder took out a talisman, the faces of the other elders, including He Xiang, turned
uglier. A faint cloud energy was released from his hand, and swam among the xiuzhe. In
moments, a faint thread of earth energy was around every one of the one thousand and five
hundred people.
Cloud Formation Silk! The middle-aged person watching from afar exclaimed, He actually
possesses Cloud Formation Silk!
What is Cloud Formation Silk? the large male saw the middle-aged person lose his composure
and couldnt help but ask in curiosity.
Cloud Formation Silk is a very rare talisman. The expression of the middle-aged person was
grave. It is not of high grade, just fourth-grade. It is made by the Sky Joy Workshop in Cloud
Sea Jie who harvest cloud thread to forge into a talisman. It is rare for it to end up outside. Its
purpose is very unique. It can create a cloud energy that can defend.
Like a ling shield? the large male asked.
Approximately. This cloud energys defense is not as strong, but it is extremely hard to disperse.
Its strength lies in that it can be used on more than one person. Look at them, all of them have a
thread of cloud energy on them. The more people there are for this Cloud Formation Silk, the
stronger it is!
The eyes of the large male flashed. It really is a waste for such a good treasure like this to end
up in this persons hands.

The tone of the middle-aged person was grave. This isnt good for Golden Crow City! Seeing
the large male was unconcerned, he said, The cloud energy isnt strong, but if every persons
defense was slightly strengthened, it is very terrifying when it accumulates.
The large male thought, and instantly shook. He felt the extraordinariness of the item even more.
It really was a great weapon for a large battle. He couldnt help but say, Is it possible to buy this
Cloud Formation Silk?
The middle-aged person shook his head. Cloud Sea Jie is too far from us.
The large male was slightly regretful.
The public might not know the origins of the Cloud Formation Silk, but the ability of this
talisman was easily seen. One thousand and five hundred people with this Cloud Formation Silk,
the strength of the troop instantly rose up a stage.
The complexions of the elders were dark. Second Elder possessed such a powerful talisman, but
they had never seen it in the many battles before this. Of course, what they cared about the most
was that Second Elder could possibly take down Golden Crow City in one attack.

Zuo Mo was also shocked. The others talisman was so strong! In large-scale battles, what was
most scary were talismans like Cloud Formation Silk. However, he didnt have much he could
think of to do at this point.
Fortunately his heart was strong. Even though an unexpected event had occurred, he wasnt in a
panic.

Second Elders face was filled with smugness. He Xiang, He Xiang, you could never have
thought that I would have Cloud Formation Silk! The other elders also were overjoyed. The
morale of the one thousand and five hundred xiuzhe grew greatly and they activated their ling
armor.
The attributes of each persons ling armor were all different, and so their colors were naturally
different. Watching from a distance, the sky was filled with a dazzling variety of colors! The
faint cloud energy was not eye-catching under the light of the ling armor.
Everyone, listen well! Second Elder spoke slowly, his voice passing out. This is our last
battle. After this battle, we will live in this city! I will reward the first person that charges in with
a fourth-grade talisman!
Everyone was instantly excited. It was extremely difficult for normal xiuzhe to obtain a fourthgrade talisman! These xiuzhes eyes instantly turned red as they breathed heavily. They felt their
blood boil, their desire for battle roiling as they wanted to attack at this exact moment!
Seeing that the morale had risen, Second Elder proudly ordered, Attack!
One thousand and five hundred xiuzhe howled and exuded killing intent as they charged at
Golden Crow City!
Everyone pushed their ling shield to the largest possible. Those xiuzhe that had defensive
talismans took all of them out as they howled and charged at Golden Crow City!
In the sky, streak after streak of five-colored light lit up. One thousand and five hundred streaks
of light filled the sky. They were eye-catching as they carried killing intent and leapt crazily
towards Golden Crow City.


Zuo Mo sat at the formation battle watchtowers, and did not panic at all. At this time, all of his
stray thoughts were thrown to the back of his mind.
In his eyes, there were only the enemies that were flying closer!
Staring at the enemy, he silently calculated the distance between them. Suddenly, light flashed
out of his eyes. He raised his right hand and chopped down heavily. His voice was like the roar
of thunder and heard over the entire city.
Kill!
Translator Ramblings: For the person on reddit that asked about using ningmai to search for the
person that started Stars in Daytime:
After the first Stars in Daytime, several jindan from Bright Wave Jie were sent to look for the
person responsible. That was on the order of a Jie master, who probably has authority of some
kind over all the sects in that jie so lots of jindan that might follow his orders or do a favor for
him. Rong Weis group is searching for the same entity that caused the second Stars in
Daytime but this is on the command of this Marquis who is the leader of a faction in the
neighboring jie, not a Jie master so he probably doesnt have as many jindan to order around or
he might not have jindan he can order about at all.
Second, the yao troops which are sent out are equivalent in cultivation to ningmai but that does
not mean their battle capabilities are the same. If we still use one hundred ningmai to take down
a jindan as Pu Yao said it, then the yao have sent the equivalent of quite a few jindan.
Rong Wei might have only been sent with compound guards but I actually think that the Marquis
is not expecting her to capture the yaomo, but to follow it. We know that yaomo of higher
cultivation cannot pass through the chaos rift easily and without a price so the yaomo might not
be able to go through and so the only way out of Little Mountain Jie is Sky Water Jie, which is
Rong Weis home. The hypothetical yaomo who is probably seriously wounded since it caused
two incidents of Stars in Daytime, would have to leave Little Mountain Jie for Sky Water jie if
they cant go through the chaos rift and if they are weak enough, Rong Wei might get luck in
capturing it. Otherwise, Rong Wei can just keep an lookout and track the yaomo to notify others
who can prepare for its capture. There is also one more reason but Im not going to write it here
because it is a spoiler of a kind and also implied rather than stated outright.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Eighty Eight Fight!
This chapter has been brought to you by me, and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter Two Hundred and Eighty Eight Fight!
The thirty six formation battle watchtowers suddenly light up, the dazzling silver light breaking
through the clouds. The Outer Hall xiuzhe that were charging felt their vision fill with a snowy
brightness, so bright they could not keep their eyes open!
The charge of the Outer Hall xiuzhe could not avoid pausing.
Hundreds of streaks of silver lights shot out of the formation battle watchtowers like sharp
swords.
Pew pew pew!

Dozens of xiuzhe wailed as they were instantly penetrated by the hard lightning! No matter if it
was the cloud energy that flickered around their body, or the ling shield of the ling armor, they
could not stop the hard lightning for even a moment.
Zuo Mo had used the Yang Fiendish Hard Lightning as his basis for building the formation battle
watchtowers. The power was even stronger than the Yang Fiendish Hard Lightning that Zuo Mo
himself could cast. How could these xiuzhe that wore just third-grade ling armor stop such a
destructive attack?
The loss of several dozen members was not much towards a troop of one thousand and five
hundred people. Second Elder shouted, Charge! Dont stop! The speed of the formation battle
watchtowers are very slow!
Hundred of hard lightning bolts only stopped them for a moment.

The middle-aged person that was watching from a distance couldnt help but shake his head.
The city master doesnt seem to know how to use formation battle watchtowers. The rhythm
isnt right.
How so? the large male hurriedly asked.
Formation battle watchtowers are powerful, but the time it takes takes time to prepare. Due to
this, the rhythm is extremely important, The middle-aged person said, The thirty six formation
battle watchtowers can cover for each other, and continuously attack. That way, they can drag
down the enemys rhythm and obtain more time for themselves.
So thats it! The large male understood.
Golden Crow Citys attack didnt hold anything back, firing all at once. There will definitely be
a short pause. The middle-aged person stared unblinkingly at Golden Crow City and said, For
the Outer Hall, this is a chance! If they could get close, even if the formation battle watchtowers
start attacking again, they cannot stop the Outer Hall from advancing!
The situation was as he expected. The formation battle watchtowers of Golden Crow City
stopped firing. The speed of xiuzhe was fast to start with, and quickly charged to within ten li of
Golden Crow City.
There were occasionally some bolts of hard lightning that shot out of Golden Crow City, and
struck a few xiuzhe, but this kind of scattered attack could not stop the advancing steps of the
Outer Hall xiuzhe. The morale of the xiuzhe led by Second Elder rose! Looking as Golden Crow
City came closer, everyone became extremely ecstatic. They howled crazily, activating the ling
armor as they raised the flying sword in their hands in anticipation of reaching Golden Crow City
and slicing down!
There were countless jingshi and talismans waiting for them
The hard lightning shooting from Golden Crow City was still scattered. Under such a ferocious
attack, it seemed so weak and helpless.
Eight li!
The xiuzhe that were watching Golden Crow City from afar sighed. It was over, Golden Crow
City was finished! If they went another four or five li, the Outer Hall xiuzhe could attack Golden
Crow City.
Even a jindan would not be able to stop the simultaneous attack of one thousand and five
hundred xiuzhe, even if it was the accumulated power of a second-grade spell from each person.

A jindan could not destroy one thousand and five hundred xiuzhe. When jindan could not win,
they could run. This meant that he always had the initiative in battle.
The coordinated charge of thousands of xiuzhe was a nightmare once they closed in.
Spells and sword energies would rain down, unable to be stopped.
All of them could predict the terrible loss that was waiting for Golden Crow City!

Second Elders blood was boiling in his body. He was so excited he was trembling. He would
become the first elder to enter Golden Crow City. He could pick three talismans of his choosing,
the shining accomplishment would give him more power in the Outer Hall.
Kill! he furiously yelled.
Kiiiillllllllllll! The xiuzhe around him all simultaneously bellowed!

Zuo Mo narrowed his eyes. Every formation battle watchtower under him was filled with xiuzhe
at this point.
Stand at the positions!
Prepare to take over at any moment!
Dont hold any energy back! Use everything when you get up. When your ling power is used
up, immediately give up the position. Remember the location of the exit and do not block other
people.
Dont panic, just be like when we usually practice. Dont aim, just throw at places with more
people.
Each formation battle watchtower was extremely tense. The faces of every xiuzhe was grave.
They were not afraid. Even though they were captives, they had lived for a long time in Little
Mountain Jie. Their discipline had been loose before, but after this recent period of training, they
finally looked somewhat acceptable.
The backbone of the Eastern and Western Camps had come from Vermillion Bird Camp. They
had completely transferred Lil Miss people over.
When the last order was issued, every stray noise disappeared. Each persons nerves were tight
as they waited for the order from the Boss.
The thirty-six formation battle watchtowers were so quiet at this moment it was possible to hear
a needle drop to the floor.
Zuo Mo looked at the xiuzhe covering the sky as they raced closer. Having gotten used to
Gongsun Chas three section wave killing charge, there wasnt any ripple in his heart when he
saw the enemies charge. His mind furiously calculated the distance between the two sides. His
eyes were looking at the sky without blinking.
As the distance grew smaller, the ranks of the other side became tighter as well.
The Outer Hall xiuzhe furiously flew towards Golden Crow City, but Golden Crow City was only
a little city. If they wanted to get close, they naturally had to squeeze towards each other. In the
eyes of the spectators, these one thousand and more xiuzhe were like a flood when they gathered
together. The sound of howling in the air multiplied and shook their souls!

The xiuzhe in the surroundings felt the sky and earth change color, the mountains collapsing, and
the earth breaking. Each of them paled. The lips of some of the less brave xiuzhe uncontrollably
trembled.
Looking at the others dense ranks, Zuo Mos eyes suddenly became sharp. It seemed to heavily
come out of his chest, the killing intent undisguised as it echoed in Golden Crow City. Kill!
In an instant, the dim thirty six formation battle watchtowers suddenly bursted with light!
Countless hard lightning bolts gathered like a silver flood.
It was too fast!
The Outer Hall xiuzhe felt their vision fill with light and were extremely shocked. Before they
could react, they felt they had been heavily struck by something.
The two opposing waves collided without any finesse!
Pia pia pia!
The rattle of collisions was like a rushed drum beat. The xiuzhe at the front that were pierced lost
control and their speed dipped. The xiuzhe in the back did not have to the time to slow, and could
only stare as they crashed.
More than one thousand people instantly turned to a mess!
The hard lightning had arrived so rapidly, no one was able to dodge in time. As their speed had
been pushed to their maximum, they did not have the energy to do any other action at this time.
Charge over! Charge over! the elders shouted at the top of their lungs. Their faces were
slightly pale.
Charge
An elders shout suddenly stopped. Five bolts of hard lightning hit his ling shield at the same
time. The fourth-grade ling armor broke. He was torn to pieces by the powerful force.
The power of hard lightning was clearly displayed at this moment. Normal third-grade ling
armor could not stop it. It would frequently penetrate through one xiuzhe, and the hard lightning
would still have enough energy to strike the ling shield of a second xiuzhe.
The thirty six formation battle watchtowers had all concentrated their shots in an area no wider
than ten zhang, and didnt give any space to dodge.
This attack came so suddenly and ferociously that the Outer Hall xiuzhe were dumbstruck.
The thirty six formation battle watchtowers had also become chaotic at this time.
Dont keep ling power back, do not aim at a target. Quick, with all possible speed!
Faster, faster! Next rotation!
Good, go!
Several people were to assigned to a team that would shoot out as much hard lightning in the
shortest time possible before instantly flying away. Then the next team that had already prepared
would rush to the set positions and take over in a cycle.
Hard lightning continuously flew out from the formation battle watchtowers, and smashed into
the ranks of the Outer Hall that had squeezed into a ball.
In the blink of an eye, more than half of the Outer Hall had fallen, leaving slightly more than five
hundred people.
Second Elder had been struck dumb by this round of fierce attacks. However, he truly was a
character, and knew that the situation had reached its most dangerous moment. At this time, he
couldnt spare the effort for anything else, and took out all the defensive talismans he had
Several layers of ling shield appeared on his body. His eyes red, he suddenly charged to the very
front. Kill!
He was like a wild beast being backed into a precipice!

If he lost this battle, there would be no place for him in the Outer Hall.
The hard lightning hit his ling shield. Pia, one ling shield broke, a talisman on his body broke. He
ignored it, and did not slow down.
As Second Elder led the attack, the morale was instantly boosted. Everyone crazily charged
towards Golden Crow City!
At this time, there were less than five hundred people left so they were not as tightly arranged as
they had been. Adding on they deliberately spreading out, the situation instantly turned for the
better. The response from Golden Crow City was half a beat slower, and their accuracy rate
lowered drastically.
The Outer Hall xiuzhe took the opportunity to get even closer.
Three li!
At this time, they had already entered the attack range of the xiuzhe. The remaining Outer Hall
xiuzhe were even more excited! Even though there were less than three hundred people
remaining, but everyone believed that they others moves had all been used. They were only one
step away from conquering Golden Crow City!
The flying swords they had already prepared were going to be sent out.

Sitting on a lucky cloud, Zuo Mo sighed inside. The skill level of the Eastern and Western
Camps were still lacking when compared to Vermillion Bird Camp. When the enemy had
suddenly scattered just now, their rhythm instantly stumbled. More than half of the hard lightning
had missed. If the rhythm hadnt stumbled, the enemy fatalities would be another one hundred
people.
However, he also knew this was the necessary learning process.
This string of changes dazzled the eyes of the spectators. They almost forgot to breathe. From the
Outer Halls confident charge, everyone had thought that Golden Crow City was finished. But
the battle situation was completely unexpected. The brief pauses of Golden Crow Citys defenses
had clearly been planned. That was just a trap dug for the Outer Hall.
When the hard lightning flood and the xiuzhe flood smashed together, everyones minds went
blank.
They lost the ability to think. They could only gape as they watched the collision, such a
magnificent yet cruel scene! A brutal yet tragically beautiful scene!
Then they watched as Second Elder went to charge at the front, the Outer Hall xiuzhe furiously
charging towards Golden Crow City. The presence of the remaining hundred people suddenly
became savage. Everyone was dumbstruck where they stood and inhaled sharply.
They watched as Second Elder led his people to within a li of Golden Crow City, there was only
one thought in everyones mind. Golden Crow City was finished!
But just at this time, in the sky above Golden Crow City, the very center of everyones attention,
the young person sitting on a lucky cloud moved.
He stood up.
Translator Ramblings: Im afraid that your acquaintance with Lil Cliffy is to be extended.
This is the first time attack ranges of swords are mentioned but it is rational to expect that the
energy in a sword strike would dissipate over long distances. Zuo Mos souped up battle

formation towers are pretty deadly and WanderingGummiOfDoom said this was trench warfare
like the world wars.

and Eighty Nine The Reappearance of the
Sound Storm

Chapter Two Hundred and Eighty Nine The Reappearance of the Sound Storm
The city master of Golden Crow City was an extremely mysterious individual. No one knew his
origins, and nothing was learned from the spies that the factions had sent in.
Before the battle started, this young person had sat on the lucky cloud, a mask-wearing female
xiu standing by his side, his expression calm. From beginning to end, he had only spoken two
words: kill.
He completely didnt realize that he was the center of everyones attention.
No one dared to underestimate this young person. Even if he looked very young, so young that it
seemed almost impossible. But no one dared to doubt his abilities. How many people could
found such a property in Little Mountain Jie?
The trap just now had also been outside of everyones expectations. The results had also been
unexpected. At the most dangerous moment, everyones hearts suddenly rose for some
unexpected reason when they saw him suddenly stand up.
After he stood up, Zuo Mo detected that the hard lightning released by the formation battle
watchtowers had stabilized again.
It was time.
His mind moving. Lil Pagoda who was connected to his mind suddenly started to rapidly spin.
The light from the golden sun grew, and turned to a flaming ball of fire. The fire followed the
threads that dangled down in the sky and spread throughout the formation. When it passed by a
ring of light, the ring of light would shake and lightly ring.
For some unknown reason, this sound made everyones hearts jump.
It was like a golden gadas blow, deep and murderous!
Clang clang clang!
The continuous and rapid string of deep chimes made their minds tremble. Like a relay, the
chimes became even deeper and powerful, accompanied by an ethereal chanting that made their
hearts beat rapidly.
If people from Sky Moon Jie saw this scene, the would definitely recall that scene at the Sword
Test Conference!
Second Elders expression changed slightly. As a ningmai third stratum, his sense of danger was
more sensitive.
Not good!
Clang!
Like the ringing of a far away temples bell, this ring seemed to strike his heart. The sound was
first too soft to hear, but then suddenly rose. The hard and dignified presence was like water
breaking through the dam, and sweeping forth unstoppably!
The strongest killing move of the Skyring Moon Chime Formation, [Moon Chime Sound Storm]!

This [Moon Chime Sound Storm] had tormented the disciples from various sects at the Sword
Test Conference. Now that he had added the fourth-grade Buddha Sound Hoop, and the Skyring
Moon Chime Formation used the thirty six formation battle watchtowers as a foundation, it was
much stronger than the Skyring Moon Chime Formation made that day using metal nails and
jade tablets.
Zuo Mo had also discovered the formation technique of the fourth-grade Buddha Sound Hoop.
[Buddha Chant]!
The Buddha sound was like a knife that killed without blood. If one wasnt careful, it would
corrode their minds and was unable to be dodged.
In everyones eyes, an invisible ripple suddenly exploded outwards with Golden Crow City as
the center. The Outer Hall xiuzhe were unable to dodge in time and received the full brunt of the
attack. No one escaped.
Xiuzhe who were slightly weak instantly bled from their orifices, their innards pulverized.
Xiuzhe who were stronger, like Second Elder, paled, and their figures couldnt help but pause.
This pause was a chance to the xiuzhe inside Golden Crow City!
The hard lightning from every formation battle watchtower instantly smashed towards the
remaining xiuzhe. The Buddha sound in the ears of the Golden Crow Citys people was like a
blessing from the heavens. Their exhaustion disappeared, and their minds cleared. The energy of
the two camps instantly grew.
With the aid of the Buddha Sound Hoops chanting, the xiuzhe inside the formation battle
watchtower performed above their usual skill. The hard lightning they shot was frighteningly
accurate. The xiuzhe who had been wounded by the Buddha sound were at their weakest state.
Even if they had the energy to block the hard lightning, they were still penetrated. Bloom after
bloom of blood red blossoms appeared in the sky, and the energy of death rose.
After a single wave of hard lightning, there were only a few xiuzhe left in the sky.
Second Elder was one of them. His face was ashen as he looked dazedly at the corpses on the
ground. He suddenly raised his head, shouting furiously with all his power, Master of Golden
Crow City! Do you dare fight?
On the lucky cloud, Zuo Mo rolled his eyes. Idiot.
Even Silly Bird couldnt resist rolling her eyes at Second Elder.
Zuo Mo saw there was no noise from below him, and was very discontent. He shouted down,
What are you doing standing around? Do you want to invite him in for dinner?
The formation battle watchtowers below had a ruckus. Whoosh, a large patch of hard lightning
flew out and dazzled the eyes.
Second Elders eyes were open very wide, his face filled with disbelief.
There were at least a dozen hard lightning bolts that struck him. He stared fixedly at Golden
Crow City, as he dropped from the sky like a bag of sand.
The one thousand and five hundred people had all been killed!
The Outer Hall xiuzhe lost their capabilities of speech. Each of them had pale white faces. They
had had smooth sailing previously, and had only needed to use the slightest of efforts to flatten
the factions that had tried to resist. They had never encountered such fierce fighting before.
Outside the Golden Crow City, more than one thousand burnt black corpses were scattered
everywhere. Dismembered limbs and flesh could be seen everywhere. The ling power turbulence
lingering in the air reminded everyone just how cruel and fierce the fight had been!
Even He Xiang who wanted Second Elder to die did not feel any joy right now. His face was as
pale as paper. He had finally realized how idiotic his optimistic prediction had been!

This bone was much harder than they had imagined!


The dark circle of spectators was also completely silent.
They had remained here because they wanted to see a good fight, but right now, they were
shocked by the fierceness of this fight. Usually, everyone would charge up together, furiously
competing to take the spoils from the corpses. But looking at the mountains of corpses, they had
no impulse at all. They only dazedly looked.

The middle-aged person and the large man also had dazed faces.
They were also shocked.
Yaomo were rampaging about now. Everyone knew that large scale battles could not be avoided.
But when they finally saw a large scale battle, they found that these battles were far crueler than
they could imagine.
What is the use of individual bravery? the large man sighed emotionally with slight dejection.
For a long time, increasing individual strength and going to Bloody Sky Metropolis Jie to
become famous was the path to success of every young xiuzhe. Now, he found that the individual
strength they had pursued with such hardship was almost ineffective in large scale battles.
The middle aged person knew the large man had received a blow and urged, Daren, there is no
need to be demotivated. If a jindan came, the results would be completely the opposite.
The large mans expression cheered up slightly. Upon further thought, he found that it was right.
If a jindan came, they would have defeated this city long ago. They had all seen the strength of
jindan experts before. Even such a strong city would probably be unable to stop the steps of a
jindan expert.

Contrasting the deathly silence, the cheers coming from inside Golden Crow City rolled into the
surroundings.
In reality, Golden Crow City was also on its last legs. The ling power of the two camps was
almost completely used up. If they didnt have so many people, with such ferocity and unfettered
disregard of the consequences as they released the waves of hard lightning, they would have
quickly left all of the xiuzhe unable to even stand up.
Lil Pagoda was drooping. That [Moon Chime Sound Storm] had used all of its power. Zuo Mo
carried it in his hand with heartache. He had to throw a few talismans to it before it recovered
some energy.
Good son, Daddy knows you are the best.
Lil Pagoda was very happy at receiving praise and twirled in Zuo Mos palm. Silly Bird looked
disdainfully at Zuo Mo. That disdain seemed to say, fooling little child
Zuo Mo faltered slightly. However, he decided to disregard this unlikable person. He couldnt
help but mutter inside, Silly Birds expressions were becoming increasingly varied. It seemed she
had gained many benefits this time.
Scanning Silly Bird, Zuo Mo increasingly felt this one was fat and rich. He wondered if he could
squeeze some oil out.

Seeming to detecting the danger coming from Zuo Mo, Silly Bird hurriedly increased her
distance from Zuo Mo. Lil Fire, on the opposite hand, found it fun and chirped. Like a bubble, it
slowly flew over to join the fun.
Boss, outside the city Bao Yi put out his head and twisted his lips at the outside.
Outside the city? Zuo Mos expression was puzzled, and then he realized. He rubbed his chin
and said, Get the Guard Camp to go!

Shu Longs expression was stern as he methodically listened to the xiuzhe that came to pass on
orders.
In reality, his attention was completely focused on the bellows coming from inside the necklace.
First mission, all of you, pay attention! Whoever makes a mistake, whoever makes me lose face,
hee hee, just wait! Hm, as the first batch of subordinates of this seat for nearly a thousand years,
if you humiliate my name as a Sky Yao, I will kill all of you
Once out of the city, instantly assemble in the formation. Take out everything you have trained
usually
Seeing the xiuzhe who had delivered the orders leave, Shu Long swallowed and said, But
Daren, Boss orders is only for us to take the spoils
My ass! Using the troop of a honored Sky Yao to do something like pick up trash? I cannot bear
the embarrassment! Listen well, this mission is your monthly test. If you make a mistake, there
will be good days for you next month.
His heart shook, and coldness shot up from the bottom of his feet. The monthly test was the most
terrible days in a month. Every time it occurred, wails rang into the landscape.
This daren was not some generous one. It would be more accurate to describe him as one that
would always get even. If they provoked him this time, everyone could not live in the future.
Also, in the deepest part of his heart, he wanted Boss to see their results!
Even though they did not have to worry about food, shelter, there was no hard labour, and they
only cultivated everyday, but whenever danger approached the Boss would never think of the
existence of Guard Camp. All of Guard Camp were holding a breath. They knew their
foundations were terrible, and their strength weak. They could not do anything major.
Consequently, everyone cultivated using their life. Injuries due to cultivation were the most
frequent event in Guard Camp.
This breath was like an invisible whip furiously striking them.
Had their day finally come?
Under Shu Longs weathered face, his heart started to ripple. He adjusted the ling armor on his
body and suppressed his excitement. He tried to make his steps as steady as usual and walked out
of the tent.
Outside the tent, everyone in Guard Camp had finished gathering.
Everyone had excited expressions. It was possible to see that they were trying their best to
suppress their excitement.
Looking at the organized troop with new uniforms, Shu Long suddenly blanked. The scenes of
the past flowed like water passed his eyes. Panicked and in a sorry state as they huddled together,
their clothing unable to cover their bodies, their hopeless and dead eyes

He took a deep breath and tightened his grip on the talisman on his hand. All of the scenes in his
mind instantly shattered. Looking at the gazes full of life, his gaze became determined as he
ordered.
Depart!
Translator Ramblings: Highest body count for Zuo Mo as commander so far. I actually wonder
how high Gongsun Chas accumulated body count is.

the Stage

Chapter Two Hundred and Ninety The Guard Camp Steps Onto the Stage
He Xiangs heart was beating like a drum. The other elders were all pale. They had not recovered
from watching the battle just now. One thousand and five hundred people had all died. Their
power instantly shrank by one-fifth.
The corpses scattered across the mountains made it seem like a hellish landscape. The elders who
had been scrambling for the opportunity to attack the city first were now filled with fear. If it had
been them
Truthfully, Second Elder had performed very well. He had a great weapon in the Cloud
Formation Silk, he had the bravery to lead from the front. None of the elders here could have
performed better than he had, but he still died. The whole troop had died. It wasnt that he hadnt
performed well, but the enemy was too strong.
What kind of formation battle watchtower was that? The hard lightning it released seemed
endless like a tide. If it wasnt that they had seen it with their own eyes, they wouldnt believe
that there were such powerful formation battle watchtowers in this world. Even if there were,
how could they appear in this minuscule Little Mountain Jie?
If this came out, how could everyone live?
And that Skyring Moon Chime Formation, could that still even be called the Skyring Moon
Chime Formation? Bro, you werent the only one that played around with a Skyring Moon
Chime Formation before, are you sure that what you have is still a Skyring Moon Chime
Formation?
The elders looked at Golden Crow City with sorrowful rage.
Bro, be nice, you are so strong, dont come running to Little Mountain Jie to steal food from us
little people!
Why
Even He Xiang didnt know what to do next. Continue to fight? He looked at the elders around
him. Every one of them was dispirited and had lost their courage. Even if there was an elder that
had the courage to attack, the people under them wouldnt be willing. He could clearly feel the
morale of his troops had reached bottom.
But with everyone watching them, he felt he couldnt retreat like this and lose face.
Just as He Xiang was struggling with his dilemma, Golden Crow City acted again.

Many people suddenly appeared on top of the walls of Golden Crow City and jumped down from
the walls.
He Xiangs eyes widened as he stared in disbelief at the people continuously jumping down from
Golden Crow Citys walls.
Was it were they going to attack?
For an unknown reason, he suddenly shook. He turned to look at the other elders and stilled
again. The elders that had surrounded him had all disappeared. Only when he turned his face
around did he see that they had retreated three zhang away from him.
Terror was on everyones faces.
The movement of Golden Crow City had attracted everyones attention. The xiuzhe that were
watching from afar moved their eyes towards this group of people that flooded out of Golden
Crow City
This group of people were all wearing black heavy armor, but their movements were light and
agile. After watching for a while, everyone had puzzled expressions. Almost no one used heavy
armor among the various types of ling armor because the majority of xiuzhe battles were in the
air. The heavy ling armor would greatly affect their speed. The popular ling armors were mostly
light and carved with formations to be activated during battle. Usually, the defensive abilities of
the ling armor were not reliant on the ling armor itself, but depended on the strength of the ling
shield activated from the ling armor.
It was possible to see that the black ling armor on these people was very heavy.
Only body cultivating xiuzhe could support such heavy ling armor. Looking at the nimble
movements of these people, they did seem like body cultivating xiuzhe.
There was a continuous stream of armor-wearing xiuzhe jumping off the city walls. Their
movements were extremely quick, and well-trained, flowing like water. A group of xiuzhe
quickly gathered outside the city, and when the number of xiuzhe reached one thousand people,
the spectators all inhaled sharply.
He Xiang and the others had ashen faces!
Who said that Golden Crow City didnt have many people?
It was very hard to calculate how many people were needed to man the thirty six formation battle
watchtowers, but it definitely wasnt less than one thousand people. Now, one thousand body
cultivating xiuzhe had come out. How many people were really hiding inside Golden Crow City?
He Xiang didnt even have the energy to swear. The other elders could only stare at each other.

One thousand heavy-armor xiuzhe quickly gathered, their movements clean and without any fuss.
In a short span, they finished organizing their formation.
One thousand armor-wearing xiuzhe stood solemnly without a sound. All noise had disappeared.
The wind blew past and stirred the dust and dried leaves to swirl in the air. The killing intent was
as cold as a knife. The one thousand people were like a heavy rock pressing on everyones chest,
making them unconsciously feel that breathing was slightly difficult.
Shu Long had a small headache.
First, they could not resist Boss mission. Boss had told them to collect the spoils. If he went on a
different path, Boss definitely would not be happy. Even he wasnt willing to do so.
However, the words of the daren inside the necklace could not be dismissed. That was his direct
teacher. If that person was offended, his days would become very dark.

His mind suddenly moved and had an idea.

The people that were paying attention to the black armor troop were of two different opinions.
One side chided the master of Golden Crow City for being so dim to create such a trashy troop.
No matter if it was sword xiu, or Dhyana xiu, they emphasized the ability to fly. The mainstream
battlefield was the sky. If this group of people flew up into the air, they would be like turtles,
only able to wait for death.
The other side was very curious. Up until now, every move of the master of Golden Crow City
made people feel amazed. How could such a person make such a shallow and low-level mistake?
There had to be a deeper meaning.
The middle-aged person and the large male held the second opinion.
Its very hard to say with precedent, The eyes of the middle-aged person flashed as he said
gravely. Only people that can break convention are true heroes.
The large male stared at the black-armor troop outside the Golden Crow City. Other people
might feel that this troop was hilarious, but he had seen true elite forces before. This troop
couldnt be called elite, but it seemed to have a presence that others could not dismiss.
Other people might not concern themselves with this, but the large male knew it wasnt so easy
to form such a presence.
This master of Golden Crow City was really talented!
The eyes of the large male became even hotter.

[Hardship Guard] was an extreme mo skill. It wasnt possible to cultivate unless one had
perseverance. If they could tolerate pain, the progress was far faster than any other mo skill.
When that King first obtained [Hardship Abyss], he had felt it wasnt bad, but thought that it
didnt progress quickly enough. He didnt have the patience to slowly nurture his personal guards
so he had made the appropriate changes to the skill and made the newly formed [Hardship
Guard]. It became a quick mo skill, but the pain involved naturally multiplied.
To the King, he had countless people. Even if the elimination rate was astounding, he didnt care
at all.
He probably would never have thought that this mo skill would one day be given to a group of
xiu slaves. These xiu slave had gone through many hands. Those that could survive were those
with resilience. Also, Pu Yao naturally didnt have any kind of emotions like pity. To prove the
value of Sky Yao, he had furiously urged them on.
Today was the first time the Guard Camp showed themselves.
What did this weird troop want to do?
Just as everyone was puzzled, they saw the organized ranks suddenly spread out. Each troop was
like a stream of water, suddenly turning to ten smaller flows. With thirty six of them to a platoon,
they quickly sprinted among the mountain.
Their speed was very fast, the heavy armor on their body seemed to not affect them at all. What
was most praiseworthy was that even at such fast speeds, the shape of the troop was not affected
at all.
At the top of Golden Crow City, Zuo Mo made a small sound of surprise.

After working with formations for so long, he was abnormally sensitive to formations. With one
glance, he recognized the platoon of thirty six people were maintaining a kind of battle
formation.
His mind moving, he opened his ling eyes.
Above each little troop, black energy shifted like dozens of black serpents swimming around,
brimming with killing intent.
Zuo Mo instantly jumped in fright.
What battle formation was this?
The killing intent in this formation was so heavy that Zuo Mo had never seen anything
comparable. Even the killing intent of Gongsun Chas Vermillion Bird Camp was far less than
the Guard Camps present battle formation.
As expected, Pu Yao still had a trick up his sleeve!
Zuo Mo rubbed his chin as he thought.
Sweat continued to flow down Shu Longs head as he heard the daren inside the necklace bellow.
What have you trained? Ah! This is only the thirty six person Little Mo Kill, youve only gotten
to this. Then that one thousand people Great Mo Kill, can you even train
Pu Yao didnt have any of the composure that he had in front of Zuo Mo. His shouts were like
thunder and made Shu Longs heart tremble. He was clearly very dissatisfied.
Shu Longs orders quickly passed to every little team. Everyones heart shook. Already full of
desire for battle, they raised themselves to one hundred and twenty percent of their usual
attentiveness.

The killing intent of each platoon became even more tangible. At this time, even the xiuzhe who
didnt have ling eyes could see the extraordinary aspects.
Such keen killing intent! For the first time, the middle-aged person had a shocked expression.
His expression was grave as he said, This formation has the heaviest killing intent that this
subordinate has seen in life! I wonder who could create such a vicious formation!
Any formation that can kill people is a good formation! The large male was very liberal with
this point. He stared attentively at the constant movements of the black armor camp guards.
The killing intent was tangible. There were black snakes that seemed to be flipping above the
heads of each platoon and inspired fear when looked upon.
The people that had been mocking Zuo Mo before were gaping now as their hearts beat rapidly.
Even though they had not seen this black-armor guard troops attack, but just this shocking
killing intent was enough to rob many of their courage.

As powerful as expected! Zuo Mo, who possessed the Ling Eye, could see more clearly than
the others. Once they were touched, the killing intent that had turned to black serpents would
instantly coil around the enemy. Each platoon was like a wild beast that devoured people. Inside
the killing formation, the pupils of each camp guard had turned bloody red, and exuded a
terrifying presence. If it wasnt that they cultivated [Hardship Guard], and had indefatigable
personalities, they would have broken under such dense killing intent.

Zuo Mo couldnt help but be curious what it would be like if this battle formation encountered an
enemy. He really wanted to go ask Pu Yao, but if he went to ask at this time, that guys nostrils
would face the sky.
He ended the thought. Suddenly, he finally responded. Didnt I tell them to go strip the
talismans? What are they rehearsing for?
Upon second thought, when he looked at the ground full of corpses and scattered talismans, Zuo
Mo instantly was furious. It definitely was Pu Yao that was the culprit.
So much jingshi
Just as he was going to swear, he suddenly saw out of the corner of his eye dozens of sword
lights flew in from the horizon.
Translator Ramblings:Question and Answer
Q: One person commented on the use of Moon Chime Sound Storm after everyone was depleted
and not as the first line of defense since the sound storm attack is more powerful. So it was a
waste for the sound storm to be used on a few hundred people and not the whole bunch and it
may have been rash.
A: I do agree that it does seem quite rash but I dont think it was wasted. It could be that Zuo Mo
was rash and inefficient so he had it attack a few hundred people. But there are possibly tradeoffs in using the sound storm that I think affects how to use these two attacks.
First, we dont know the range of the sound storm but hard lightning works very well as a longrange attack. The sound might weaken over distance so that could have been a concern. It is a
mid-range or less attack. The formation also requires Lil Pagodas power to control and is a oneuse technique as Lil Pagoda is exhausted by the end of it. That means it should only be used
when it will be most effective. Hard lightning can be produced as long as the people have the
power so it can be used with less care.
Getting the enemy to go through a rain of lightning, and then at the end, setting off something
totally unexpected is a relatively better tactic than setting off something at the beginning that puts
them on their guard and then using something weaker as the enemy approaches unless it was for
intimidation.The sound storm might also be less effective the more people it attacks at once. In
that case, attacking a few thousand people would result in less effects on each person which
might be negligible.
The moon storm is one of Zuo Mos attacks and while it is effective here, there are more in his
arsenal so how he uses them depends on what he has left in the future chapters.
Any thoughts?

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Ninety One Hong Jun Xuan
This chapter has been brought to you by me, and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter Two Hundred and Ninety One Hong Jun Xuan
Dozens of xiuzhe with flying swords under their feet and their bodies flashing with light, their
faces cold, landed among the Outer Sect disciples. The first among them pointed and started to
scold He Xiang just as he stopped.
He Xiang! You have guts! Eldest Shixiong was killed! You dare to conceal this and not report
it!

He instantly ignored He Xiangs explanation, his face cold as he swept the other elders. This
seat is Old Forefathers Second Disciple Hong Jun Xuan. Starting from now, this seat will be
managing the Outer Hall! Anyone that disobeys will be killed!
The expressions of the other elders all changed, but no one dared to speak up. Many of them had
seen Hong Jun Xuang before.
This seat will give you a chance to make up for your crimes. Hong Jun Xuans eyes were filled
with killing intent. He pointed at the Guard Camp outside of Golden Crow City and said darkly,
This seat will permit you to take one thousand people. If you can defeat this group of country
bumpkins, I will pardon your crimes. If any of you do not dare to fight, then dont blame this seat
for being unmerciful!
The faces of the elders were ashen.
They didnt know the battle capabilities of that troop, but the killing intent was so dense their
hearts trembled. They couldnt gather up any courage when they looked.
What? Hong Jun Xuans face grew even colder. You are not willing?
The other Clear Sky Sect disciples also looked with unfriendliness. If He Xiang and the others
dared to make the slightest move to rebel, they would act.
He Xiangs face was like ash. He knew that he didnt have the chance to change anything now.
Clear Sky Sects patience with them had reached its limited. He said difficulty, Im willing.
There was only one route left to him, seeking life in death.
Hong Jun Xuan and the others wouldnt give them any other route. As to escape, he never
thought about it. No matter how big Little Mountain Jie was, there wasnt another place that
would take him in.
Seeing He Xiang speak, the gazes of the other elders were undecided, especially the few elders
with ningmai third stratum cultivation who now had thoughts of fleeing. But the Clear Sky Sect
disciples had encircled them. They also knew that escape would not be so simple.
They silently stood next to He Xiang.
Hate flashed across the eyes of the Clear Sky Sect disciples like Hong Jun Xuan. The death of
Huang Zhuo Guang was like a lightning bolt on a clear day for Clear Sky Sect. These Clear Sky
Sect disciples mostly idolized Eldest Shixiong. The death of Eldest Shixiong, especially in Little
Mountain Jie where they had never felt there was any danger before, was unacceptable to them.
He Xiang knew explaining would not be useful. He didnt speak and picked one thousand
people.
The sudden arrival of the Clear Sky Sect disciples instantly caused the battlefield that had
relaxed to become tense again. Everyones eyes gathered on Hong Jun Xuans body. This made
Hong Jun Xuan feel excited like he had never been before. Eldest Shixiong wasnt here so it was
now his turn.
He had waited for this day for a long time.
If he could take down this city, control of Little Mountain Jie would land back in the hands of the
sect, his status would rise with this accomplishment and would certainly take Eldest Shixiongs
place as the new leader of the younger generation of disciples. As to He Xiang and the others,
they were useless in his eyes. If it wasnt for them, the situation of Little Mountain Jie would
never have gotten to such a terrible state.

The Clear Sky Sect disciples are like this, they really cannot be cured. The large male shook
his head, his tone filled with unspeakable dislike.
He he, those whom the heavens wish to destroy, they first make mad. Daren should not argue
with them. The middle-aged person laughed lightly.
Thats true. The large male nodded, and then had an expression of anticipation. Thats a good
thing. This way, I can see just where this black armored troop is special.

It wasnt just the spectators that saw the change in the Outer Hall. Shu Long had also noticed it.
His expression instantly became solemn. Glancing at Boss on the top of Golden Crow City, he
conversed in a low voice with the daren in the necklace. Daren, they seem to want to attack.
Attack? The voice of the daren inside the necklace instantly became excited. Good! Very
good! Kill! Kill all of them!
Shu Long jumped in fright. This darens killing intent was really strong. However, he didnt take
the words seriously. He examined the situation and saw there was no time to gather the spoils of
victory. He instantly became slightly depressed. Boss had sent them to scalp, but it seemed that
they could not finish the mission now.
Shu Long was very discontent that they could not complete the first mission that Boss gave the
Guard Camp.
But at this moment, he knew what was more important. The other had divided out one thousand
people. It definitely wasnt to invite them to a meal. He did not hesitate and ordered for the
platoons to gather.
The Guard Camp that had spread out on the ground instantly gathered with Shu Long as the
center. Shu Long seemed to be a great magnet to attract them to him. The heavy black armor was
not a hindrance. Even though they could not fly, but each persons movements were nimble. With
a few jumps, they returned to the camp formation.
Zuo Mo nodded on the inside as he sat on the lucky cloud. Shu Long was quite dependable. He
didnt speak, but had the formation battle watchtowers prepare to give aid at any time. Any troop
would be useless in the end if they did not undergo real battle. Before, he had assumed that the
Guard Camp wouldnt show any results after such a short period of time. Now, he found that the
progress of Guard Camp far had surpassed his imagination, and instantly felt some confidence.
That short encounter just now had almost consumed all of the battle capabilities of the Eastern
and Western Camps. The aid that the formation battle watchtowers could give was limited. Zuo
Mo could only direct them to hurry and recover ling power.
He was also very curious what powerful moves Guard Camp had.
With his understanding of Pu Yao, if this guy didnt have a grasp of the situation, he definitely
wouldnt come out to embarrass himself.
Pu Yao could only ever do one thing, show off!
The Guard Camp merged back with their fastest possible speed. Shu Long did not order for them
to return to the city, but to prepare to welcome the enemy outside the city walls.
They have their test, and you have yours.
The words of the daren in the necklace caused Shu Long to pale in fright.
Ive taught so much. If you worked hard, you should be able to deal with this kind of minor
situation.
Pu Yaos voice didnt hold any emotion.

If you cant deal with it, you dont need to live. Your Boss might be softhearted, but if you are
useless, you would only be a burden.
Shu Long wasnt angry. He was several decades old, and had been a xiu slave for more than
twenty years. What pain hadnt he encountered, what hadnt he seen? Darens words were not
pleasing to hear but they were not wrong. He tightened the black armor on his body, and raised
his head, determination was the only thing remaining in his eyes.
If they couldnt deal with something as minor as this, how could they face Boss?
He slowly scanned around him and said in a deep voice, This is our first battle! I know
everyone has waited for this day for a long time. We cultivated with our lives, for what? For this
battle! Even if we die today, we need to build up the reputation of the Guard Camp!
His voice was not loud, but every person in Guard Camp was suddenly full of passion.
Zuo Mo could not hear their words. He looked with shock at the roiling black energy above
Guard Camp suddenly become somewhat stronger. It became as black as ink in his eyes. Even he
couldnt help but have a strong feeling of danger.
Such a powerful battle formation!
Zuo Mo was stunned. An eerie purple light suddenly lit up in the eyes of the female xiu as she
stared at the Guard Camp.
With his Ling Eyes, he saw threads of black energy sprout out of each camp guard. As the black
energy came out, it would enter the formation, and swim inside the formation. In the blink of an
eye, the formation was filled with countless small threads of black energy.

Lets go! He Xiang said heavily.


The other elders silently took out their flying swords and activated their ling armor. Behind them,
one thousand xiuzhe took out their ling armor and activated it as well.
The sky was once again covered in light of various colors.
Everyones gazes once again gathered on these two troops that were going to collide.
Based on strength, the Outer Hall definitely was at an advantage. Their ling armor was far better
than the heavy armor of Guard Camp in the eyes of many xiuzhe. It was the first time they had
seen people use such clumsy and rough heavy armor.
Based on individual power, the Outer Hall was at an even greater advantage. There were several
ningmai third stratum xiuzhe among the Outer Hall elders. As for the Guard Camp? Even though
the scripture they cultivated was very obscure, their individual power was average, and there was
no eye-catching expert.
Many people unconsciously glanced at Zuo Mo and shook their heads
Hong Jun Xuan smirked icily. Heavy armor, they still think this is thousands of years ago. They
even managed to come up with something like this antique. Who told me that they are very rich?
So many from the Outer Hall have been killed by this group? Trash is trash. Even if they entered
our Clear Sky Sect, they would not be acceptable!
Hee hee, thats true! They cant compare to Shixiong. Its easy now that Shixiong is in
command! a shidi flattered. Not just Golden Crow City. Even if there was a few more,
Shixiong can easily conquer them!
Hong Jun Xuan was content. When we take down this city, everyones service will be repaid!
Shixiong is wise!
We can only benefit from association from following Shixiong!

The other shidi flattered Hong Jun Xian. Hong Jun Xians ego was satisfied like it never had
been before. He waved a hand. Lets see just how useful this group of trash is.
The other peoples eyes all turned to He Xiang.
Lets kill! He Xiang didnt waste words, and took his sword to charge at the very front. The
other elders didnt speak either and tightly followed. The one thousand xiuzhe didnt dare to
disobey.
Piercing howls sounded in the air.
The light was like rain as they leapt towards the Guard Camp outside Golden Crow City!
Ten li!
No move. The silver flood that everyone had predicted did not appear. This made everyone feel
surprised.
Maybe the power of the formation battle watchtowers have been used up? The middle-aged
person was puzzled. Or the master of Golden Crow City has full confidence in this troop?
The large males face was both shocked and doubtful. Both possibilities were extremely likely,
but they represented completely different meanings.
He Xiang and the elders had been planning to face the rain of hard lightning, and hadnt expected
that Golden Crow City did not shoot even one bolt after flying for a while.
This caused them to be overjoyed. Morale exploded!
The elders that had been planning to flee instantly felt assured. The Outer Hall xiuzhe behind
them instantly became confident.
What they were most afraid off was the hard lightning. Now that the biggest threat was gone, the
other side was just some bumpkins dressed in heavy armor. What was there to be afraid of?
Yes! What was there to be afraid of?
Having seen the hope of survival, He Xians desire for battle suddenly boiled. He shouted, Kill!
Kill! Kill!
One thousand Outer Hall xiuzhe shouted together, Killllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll!
Seven li!
Five li!
Three li!

The xiuzhe that were diving down began magnifying with astounding speed in Shu Longs
vision.
The mo skill ramped up to the limits, Shu Long opened his eyes. In his blood red eyes, a dash of
black energy flashed past like a black knife. He suddenly shouted!
Kill!
Translator Ramblings: Yes, heavy black armor is antique, just like Pu Yao and his yin fire beads.
Stuff from three thousand years ago. Cultivation civilization development might be slower, and
in some stories, non-existent, but that is us humans going from the Iron Age to modern times.
Actually, Im not sure how cultivation society can develop. They have artificial intelligence in
the form of weapon spirits, terraforming in the ability to reshape environments easily, near
instant communication, the ability to go into space and cross galaxies Actually, do
cultivators breathe oxygen or do they just feed off the energy of the universe?

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Ninety Two Little Mo Kill
This chapter has been brought to you by me, and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter Two Hundred and Ninety Two Little Mo Kill
Shu Long ramped up his mo skill to its limit. Countless threads of black energy rapidly burrowed
inside his body.
His body quickly expanded, forcibly growing more than one chi in height. The weathered face
became vicious and authoritative at this moment, the black armor and red eyes shocking peoples
hearts.
It wasnt just him. The camp guards beside him all shouted, each of them growing taller.
What weird scripture is this? The large male gaped with wide eyes.
It is not clear. The face of the middle aged person was serious. Its a bit like the [Ghost
General Arrival] of the Ghost Formation Sect, and Divine Staff Beating Technique of Dhyana
xiu. There are many sects that have these kind of secret methods. They had been glorious during
the Thousand Year War, but not many have survived until now.
Why hasnt more of it remained?
This kind of secret method emphasizes killing, with less focus on cultivating the body and skills
that create wealth, like forging or dan-making. Its natural that they would decline more quickly,
the middle-aged person explained quickly, his eyes tightly locked onto the battlefield.
It was another scene in Zuo Mos Ling Eyes. Each camp guard was shrouded in black energy like
numerous slender black serpents swimming around their body.
An even higher pitched howl suddenly sounded.
The Outer Hall xiuzhe simultaneously sent out sword energies. Countless sword energies of
various colors were like an enormous and dense school of multicoloured fish howling as they
leapt towards Guard Camp!
The scene of a thousand xiuzhe simultaneously releasing sword energies was very spectacular!
Those who saw this scene all felt their hearts shake.
After Shu Longs bellow, all of the Guard Camp sank into a strange silence. The thick killing
intent also disappeared.
At this time, Zuo Mo couldnt help but have a shocked expression. The black energy was tightly
restrained inside the big formation. It was like a wild beast that was trapped in a cage. It
furiously smashed against the cage. However, Shu Long and the others seemed familiar with
these black energies and dismissed them, staying in their positions, and allowing them to charge.
It was only when the sword energy attacks had reached their heads that Shu Long had shouted,
Kill!
His kill was not loud, but it had an unique rhythm, deep and restrained.
The big formation of the Guard Camp suddenly moved. The rampaging black energy inside the
formation seemed to be unwilling to be used. They furiously rampaged inside the formation, but
it was useless. The Guard Camp wearing black armor were expressionless as they marched with
determined steps. As the camp guards quickly marched inside the formation, an invisible force
formed inside the formation, and carried the black energy to accelerate.
An enormous whirlpool appeared above Guard Camp. The whirlpool darkened at a rate visible to
the naked eye. The dense killing intent once again was revealed!

The sword energies that were like rain in the sky seemed to be attracted by a strong force and
were pulled towards the whirlpool.
The faces of the Outer Hall xiuzhe changed!
They lost control of their sword energies!
How was it possible!
The great majority of them had never encountered such a strange situation before.
The rain of sword energies entered the whirlpool made from black energy and disappeared
without a trace.
The entire battlefield was deathly silent. Everyone looked dazedly at the enormous black
whirlpool that was silently churning above the Guard Camp.
What what is that? the large male exclaimed in shock.
The middle-aged person was so shocked he couldnt speak. How was it possible? How could
such a powerful formation appear in Little Mountain Jie?
The master of Golden Crow City truly had extraordinary origins!
If it wasnt a sect more than seven or eight hundred years old, they definitely could not possess
such a terrifying battle formation. Which sect did this person come from? Why did he come to
Little Mountain Jie? Did he have the same goals as they did?
A hundred thoughts ran through his head, the expression of the middle-aged person was also
uncertain.
Hong Jun Xuan looked at the enormous whirlpool and his expression changed. His interest in
watching flew away.
He Xiang and the others were shocked. The slowly moving black whirlpool above Guard Camp
was like an ancient beast that could consume everything. A thousand sword energies had silently
been swallowed inside.
As expected, there was something strange!
He Xiang gritted his teeth. Lets go closer! They cannot stop our flying swords!
The other xiuzhe had hesitant expressions, but Hong Jun Xuan and the others were behind them.
If they retreated at this time, they would definitely be executed by the sword! Only by charging
forward was there a possibility of survival!
The elders exchanged looks. Without wasting words, they channeled their ling power.
Seeing the situation, the one thousand people behind them could only follow behind. What
reassured them was that they were in the sky, and that strange troop clearly was not suited to
flight so they could not do anything.
If they were careful, and didnt go near the black whirlpool, there shouldnt be a problem.
He Xiang led the approach. His heart was slightly drumming. This troop was too strange. The
black whirlpool looked extremely shocking. Their hearts beat rapidly.
Unexpectedly, the whirlpool did not react to them as they neared. Maybe this whirlpool was only
effective against things like sword energies? Everyones courage grew a few fractions.
They tried to go closer. As expected, there was no effect!
Now their hearts were greatly reassured.
The other people also saw and for some unknown reason, the middle-aged person unconsciously
released a breath. This vicious formation had given him pressure he had never felt before,
pushing on his chest like a heavy rock.
Such a powerful killing formation should not appear in Little Mountain Jie.
Only Zuo Mo could see the profoundness involved. The black whirlpool had became even bigger
after absorbing so many sword energies. Even more terrifying was that the enlarged black energy

passed into the formation. The black energy inside the formation was more than ten times as
dense as it had been,
Zuo Mo couldnt move his eyes away. For an unknown reason, he suddenly thought of the Nine
Turn Sky Soil Disks earth mist. The earth mist had been as heavy as a mountain, and this black
energy was vicious and brutal!
Inside the formation, Shu Long and the others were wrapped in thick black energy. The threads
that had been like snakes before but now it was like they were swimming in black water. The
closer it was to them, the thicker the black energy.
The sound of the black whirlpool was still shocking, but in Zuo Mos eyes, it shows signs of
fading.
Was it
Zuo Mos mind moved.
At this time, Shu Long roared again, Kill!
Everyones heart jumped. Before they could respond, they heard the one thousand camp guards
roar, Kill!
The killing intent that was let loose was like a fierce tiger that had left its cage, roaring and
unstoppable!
The organized troop suddenly spread out. Each platoon was like a ball of black cloud that spread
into the surroundings. At the same time, dozens of black serpents flew out of the formation,
twisting as their barrel thick bodies leapt towards the Outer Hall xiuzhe in the air.
Hiss hiss hiss!
The stream of serpents hissing made everyones scalp prickle.
The spectators only saw dozens of enormous black serpents that were dozens of zhang long
suddenly leaping out of the black whirlpool, baring their black fangs as they charged at the Outer
Hall xiuzhe in the air.
The distance between the two sides was not far. The enormous black serpents were like arrows
leaving the bow. With an unstoppable presence, it charged in front of the xiuzhe.
A blurry black shadow suddenly shot before him, He Xiangs head rang and then blanked.
He was not the only one. None of the elders managed to react.
Whoosh!
A fishy wind blew past. The pain they imagined did not come. He Xiang shook and suddenly
woke up. He found that he was surrounded in a patch of black.
A strange terror filled his heart. He swallowed difficulty. Where, where was this?
Cold and murderous without a hint of life, he seemed to be located in a void. Loneliness and
terror continued to charge at his hearts defenses like waves.
Calm calm he had to remain calm!
This definitely was an illusion!
He Xiang repeatedly told himself and tried to calm down.
A voice full of killing intent suddenly passed into the void.
Kill!
He suddenly felt an enormous pain from his back. When he lowered his head, he found to his
terror a hand shrouded in black energy had emerged halfway out of his chest.
Why
His mind dropped into an endless darkness.

Su Long felt the temperature inside his body was astoundingly high. He seemed to be burning to
ashes. He could only grit his teeth and bear it. It was common to encounter this kind of situation
when they cultivated [Hardship Guard]. Just now, he had activated the mo skill to kill He Xiang
in one blow.
However, he did not have any joy at this moment. There was only a furious desire for battle in
his heart.
He once again raised his palm. His entire palm was wrapped in thick black energy. His eyes
became even more red. A heart-boring pain passed from his right arm, but his arm did not shake
at all.
Any kind of power could not come out of thin air.
To gain power, one had to pay. With a safe scripture, what was paid was time. For a quick
scripture, even though it saved time, it required payment of other things.
Kill!
A deep roar squeezed out of his chest. He suddenly flipped his palm, his fingers turning to claws
as he grabbed towards a xiuzhe in the air!
A black palm left his hand, and suddenly imprinted on one xiuzhes chest and passing through as
though the dazzling ling shield seemed to not exist. This black palm easily passed through.
This xiuzhes body shook, and then his vitality instantly disappeared as he dropped down.

What the outsiders saw was a very strange scene. When the black serpents were just going to
collide with the xiuzhe troop, they suddenly turned to a ball of black energy, and covered all of
the xiuzhe.
The xiuzhe covered in the black energy seemed to freeze like puppets in the air.
Balls of black energy instantly flew out of the Guard Camp below them and hit the frozen Outer
Hall xiuzhe. The xiuzhe in the sky dropped, like dumplings into a pot. When some xiuzhe were
still dropping from the air, their corpses were already grey and without life.
Pia pia pia!
Outer Hall xiuzhe continued to drop. In a few short breaths, nothing was left in the sky.
No xiuzhe had escaped. The Outer Hall troops had all been defeated again, including all of their
elders. The elders tried to struggle but inside the black energy, they were like headless flies. They
flew randomly, but still could not escape. In the end, they were hit with dozens of black energy
balls .
The entire battle was so short it was unimaginable, so clean and crisp it was terrifying.
One thousand people versus one thousand people!
One side was completely obliterated in the blink of an eye, and the other side had no fatalities at
all. Everyone did not feel shock any more, but instead felt terror! Deep terror! This group of
people dressed in black armor was as terrifying as yaomo!
No, even if it were yaomo, they definitely could not kill one thousand xiuzhe so easily!
Hong Jun Xuans face was bloodless, and as white as paper. He unconsciously opened his mouth
but did not produce any sound. At his side, the calves of the other Clear Sky Sect disciples
uncontrollably trembled.
Even the large male and the middle-aged person had fearful expressions.
They who were they?

What was that black energy?


What was that battle formation?
Translator Ramblings: No Lil Cliffy today!
My reserve of chapters hasnt recovered from having house guests over. Accumulating chapters
is very difficult.
The Outer Hall and the Clear Sky Sect disciples present right now are overconfident but like
chess, there are only select strategic opening moves. He Xiang only sent a portion of the people
in a first attack which isnt a bad move since they didnt know much about Golden Crow City. It
might have been possible that Zuo Mo pulled a rabbit out of the hat and would have something
that could kill all of them at once if all their forces attack the city together. Hong Jun Xuan is
slightly different. He wants to win, but his own forces are the Clear Sky Sect disciples and not
the Outer Hall. He can only use the Clear Sky Old Forefather to threaten He Xiang to attack the
city. But if Hong Jun Xuan sent all of the Outer Hall and was also defeated, then he would be in
big trouble. In terms of numbers, Clear Sky Sect would be outnumbered, and most importantly, it
would be a mark against him.
World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred and Ninety Three Great
Unexpected Wealth

This chapter has been brought to you by me, and WanderingGummiOfDoom.

Chapter Two Hundred and Ninety Three Great Unexpected Wealth


Shu Long bit down hard. The black energy was burning against his body like fire. He knew what
the black energy was, it was killing essence. The [Crow Fiend Mo Killing Formation] could
condense killing essence to wound the enemy, but the killing essence was like a double edged
blade. To wound the enemy, it had to first wound them.
Channeling [Hardship Guard] to his limit, the black energy was slowly being absorbed. His body
uncontrollably trembled all over.
Pain and struggle was the best nutrients or this mo skill.
Different than what others saw, using Little Mo Kill was barely achievable for the present Guard
Camp. In the usual practice, the success rate of Little Mo Kill was not high. But today, no
platoon had failed in activating their Little Mo Kill!
But
Shu Long felt threads of black energy burrow into his body like worms and burning every part of
his skin! He didnt dare to move. He was afraid that if he made the slightest movement, he would
suddenly lose control.

He was not the only one. All the other camp guards were nailed to the ground like wooden posts.
They were covered all over in black energy. They gritted his teeth and bore it, furiously
channeling their mo skill.
Return to the city immediately.
Inside the necklace, Pu Yaos voice was not shouting like he was previously, but with a rare kind
of solemnity.
Shu Long could not speak. He bit down harder, the black energy on his body increasingly dense.
The black energy seemed to show signs of turning to flame. He couldnt even move his feet to
walk. The black energy increasingly grew heavier in all of Guard Camp.
Zuo Mo also saw the wrongness. Theoretically, the black energy should have dissipated by now,
but the black energy inside the large formation was becoming increasingly heavy. If this
continued, Guard Camp would be consumed by these brutal and sharp killing essences.
Black Water! Quick! Pu Yaos voice suddenly sounded inside Zuo Mos head.
Zuo Mo first stilled, and then his expression instantly changed. He flew outside the city, and
sprinkled down Black Water. At this time, he couldnt care about how valuable Black Water was.
He was afraid that the amount wasnt enough, and just rained down all the Black Water he
possessed on Guard Camp.
Each drop of Black Water was heavy as lead. With cracking sounds, some landed on the ground,
and smashed out a small hole, dust spraying out.
But when it hit the bodies of the camp guards, it was like landing in sand, instantly entering their
body and disappearing without a trace.
Previously, the Moon Eye Black Water Beast Zuo Mo and the others had killed was three
thousand catties heavy. Zuo Mo had taken as much as one thousand and five hundred catties of
Black Water. All of that one thousand and five hundred catties of Black Water was raining down
on the bodies of the Guard Camp.
Black Water was a frequently used third-grade material, but that did not mean that it was so
cheap.
The Crow Fiend Mo Killing Formation caused everyone to feel terror, but when the spectators
saw Zuo Mo continuously sprinkle down one thousand and five hundred catties of Black Water,
they almost went insane, and felt great pain!
Their eyes were so jealous they were entirely red.

More than a thousand catties of Black Water


Was there anyone that was so wasteful?
Looking at the black energy decreasing, the expressions of pain on Shu Long and the others
faces decreased greatly, Zuo Mo felt slightly reassured. He suddenly recalled that he had four
semi-spheres of Moon Eye, he hurriedly asked Pu Yao, Are Moon Eyes useful?
Pu Yao was slightly surprised. Moon Eyes are very expensive.
So it means they are effective? asked Zuo Mo.
Oh, its effective.
Just as Pu Yaos words landed, Zuo Mo took out the four semi-spheres of Moon Eye.
Moon Eye! The spectators did not lack for those that recognized it who then exclaimed.
Black Water! Moon Eye! He must have killed a Moon Eye Black Water Beast! Very strong!
That thing is very expensive what does he want to do?
Zuo Mo put the Moon Eyes into the center of his palms and then scrubbed hard. Instantly, the
Moon Eyes turned to a pile of white powder.
All the exclamations suddenly stopped. They looked with abject shock at Zuo Mos hands.
Zuo Mo gently channeled ling power into his palms. The Moon Eye power instantly turned to a
ball of white smoke and covered Guard Camp.

This master of Golden Crow City definitely is of uncommon origin. The middle-aged persons
expression was admiring. I dont know which sect he is a disciple off. This person is very
generous and has high aims. Daren may want get acquainted with him.
The large male also had admiration. To say of nothing else, it wasnt so easy to be so generous to
ones subordinates. He was confident in the judgment of the middle-aged person. Without a
doubt, the master of Golden Crow City definitely was the heir to an ancient and hidden sect.
Such a vicious formation, such powerful subordinates, these were things only disciples of those

large sects would have. What made him so certain was the one thousand and five hundred catties
of Black Water, and the four semi-spheres of Moon Eye that Zuo Mo had taken out.
He was too familiar with these motions!
Just this mannerism wasnt something a small sect could afford to give. Thinking about himself
and his group of people throwing down the thousand jing to get a beauty to smile,[i] it was
embarrassing compared to this person today!
So embarrassing!
The large male made the decision that he would definitely request a meeting with the Lord of
Golden Crow City when this battle finished.

Shu Long and the others knew the value of Black Water and Moon Eye. Mist rose in their eyes.
The black energy almost lost control. They had always been ordered about, beaten, and sworn at.
No one had ever spent so much on them.
Never before
The voice of the daren inside the necklace sounded again. Gather your minds, return to the city
immediately, move slowly.
Shu Long suppressed the excitement inside. He didnt say anything, reaching out with a hand to
make a motion towards the others. They slowly moved towards Golden Crow City. The city
gates of Golden Crow City were wide open. Compared to the crispness and nimbleness when
they jumped down from the walls of the city, they were as slow as turtles at this time and had no
presence.
But no one dared to underestimate them. When their eyes landed on Guard Camp, they would
unconsciously hold a hint of terror.
It was this troop that looked as slow as puppets, it was these bumpkins mocked for wearing
clumsy and heavy black armor, that had just destroyed a troop of one thousand xiuzhe!
When Guard Camp entered the city, they went directly back to their camp to process the killing
essence, Black Water, and Moon Eyes.

Zuo Mo wasnt in the mood to face the others, and had the formation battle watchtowers keep up
their guard.
He ran to the residence of Guard Camp and saw the armor-wearing xiu slaves standing like
wooden posts shrouded in black energy. He worriedly asked Pu Yao, What happened today? Is
there a problem? Right, what formation did they use?
Crow Fiend Mo Killing Formation, a type of slightly obscure formation, Pu Yao said. It is the
most appropriate to use with [Hardship Guard]. This battle formation was something it got after
killing a mo general.
It? Zuo Mo was slightly puzzled.
That stele, Pu Yao said irritably.
Oh. Zuo Mo didnt understand but noted it down. It seemed the gravestone was as
extraordinary as he had expected to be able to kill a mo general. He continued to ask, What
happened today?
The first skill of Crow Fiend Mo Killing Formation is called Little Mo Kill, thats what you saw
today, Pu Yao said. Even though it doesnt have much technique, the time they have spent
cultivating is too short and it was too hard for them to use.
Then what are they doing now?
Pu Yao was slightly discontent. Originally, he had been planning to show off in front of Zuo Mo,
but hadnt expected that the other had to come and rescued him. This made him feel as
uncomfortable as though he had swallowed a fly.
Seeing Zuo Mo stare at him, he could only twist his mouth and say, They have received good
fortune due to this calamity. The killing essence has corroded their body. To other people, it is
fatal, but for them, it is a good chance to make a breakthrough. Since you have Black Water, and
used the Moon Eyes, if they still cant break through, they are pigs!
Zuo Mos heart was instantly reassured. He smirked. I dont dare to say if they are pigs. I say,
Old Pu, you have to be more reliable in the future. You said you wanted to manage Guard Camp
alone, okay, I immediate consented. But look, after this long, you only practiced a dumb[ii]
formation and a self-mutilation skill. Please, you are a Sky Yao, you need to take out something
acceptable! A person cant be so miserly, no, no, a Sky Yao cant be so miserly. You even needed
ge to run over for a rescue! Do you think Black Water and Moon Eyes doesnt cost jingshi?
Honored Sky Yao, it is very expensive!
Finishing, he didnt looked at Pu Yaos white and green face, turned, and left the sea of
consciousness.

Once he came out of the sea of consciousness, Zuo Mo couldnt stop himself from roaring with
laughter. When he thought of Pu Yaos green and white ugly expression, he felt his body was
unspeakably comfortable.
After two thousand and five hundred people had fallen outside Golden Crow City, Hong Jun
Xuan who saw it all with his own eyes had to tuck up his tail no matter how arrogant he was.
He definitely could not accept leaving pitifully like this, but he didnt dare to mount another
frontal attack. He Xiang and the others had all been killed in this battle. He had paled just from
watching. Where could he get the bravery? Out of helplessness, he could only set down camp,
and slowly brainstorm.
The night came quickly. Golden Crow City that usually was filled with light was pitch black
today. But the camp of the Outer Hall was lit up like it was day. They were afraid of a sneak
attack from Golden Crow City. The xiuzhe that were watching from afar were waiting for the day
to arrive. It seemed like nothing would happen tonight.
Time quickly flowed until midnight.
Suddenly, the city gate of Golden Crow City was pushed open a sliver. Lil Pagoda sneakily
peeked out with half of its body, saw that no one was there, before walking out without any
worry. Behind it, a row of copper puppets tip-toed as they streamed out. Each cooper puppet had
a cloth bag on its back
Lil Pagoda slowly flew at the front, occasionally looking around. The copper puppets leapt
towards the corpses below with a nimbleness and speed completely opposite its clumsy bodies.
Their movements were uncoordinated as they tore down the talismans, and ling armor from the
bodies of the corpses, and then put them into the cloth bag on their backs. At the beginning, their
movements were extremely raw, but then they slowly became smooth.
Very quickly, the cloth bag on a puppets back was full. At this time, a grey shadow flashed past
its back and flew away with the bag. The copper puppet slowly took out a second cloth bag and
continued to work.
On the morning of the next day when everyone looked at Golden Crow City, they were stunned.
The corpses that had been scattered on the mountain were now completely bare.
This this
Looking at the bare corpses on the mountain, everyone completely lost their abilities to speak.
When Hong Jun Xuan saw this scene, he didnt know what to say.

So vicious
In Golden Crow City, Bao Yi completely sank into mania as he looked at the mountain of
talismans. An exhilarated blush floated on his face, he forgot exhaustion as he started to sort the
talismans.
Lil Pagoda was at the side, continuously throwing talismans into its mouth. Before, Bao Yi had
quite an opinion about Lil Pagoda swallowing talismans, but he was abnormally cooperative
today. He even took out a large pile of talismans and put them in front of Lil Pagoda.
When Zuo Mo saw results of Bao Yis inventory, it was like someone whacked him on the head.
He felt extremely dizzy.
Rich! They really struck it rich this time!

[i] So the actual phrase in Chinese () roughly translates to a thousand gold to


gain a beautys smile. The idiom comes from the story of King You of Zhuo who had a queen
with the surname Bo that did not smile. He said that he would pay a thousand gold to the person
that made her smile. Of course he did a lot of other things that ended up with him deposed. Gold
(jin) is changed to jing so it becomes a thousand jing for the smile of a beauty.
[ii] ] Dumb () and kill () are different tones that are very close to each other and have the
same pinyin but pronounced differently. So Zuo Mo mangles the killing formation into a dumb
formation.
Translator Ramblings: No cliffy at all! Silly Bird and the rest pay for their keep, well, some of it.
The Scalping Corpse Freak makes a reappearance.
There is very little to go on but theres enough information for me to think Huang Zhuo Guang
was a better leader than Hong Jun Xuan is being right now. Hong Jun Xuan is really cautious
with his life.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Ninety Four The Return of Lil Miss
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom and warlord212.
Chapter Two Hundred and Ninety Four The Return of Lil Miss
The spoils from two thousand and five hundred people was astounding.
Other than large amounts of normal third-grade talismans, there were also twelve fourth-grade
talismans. The elders had been very rich. Of course, that Cloud Formation Silk naturally

wouldnt have been lost. The number of materials and jingshi were also very astounding. The
spoils this time filled all of the date seed ship.
This was an astonishing amount of wealth.
So when Zuo Mo saw the inventory list Bao Yi gave him, he was turned dumb by such enormous
wealth. However, upon further thought, he felt it was normal. The Outer Hall xiuzhe were
wealthier than the average xiuzhe to start with, and since it was two thousand and five hundred
people at once, the amount could be imagined.
In the next few days, Zuo Mo was immersed in great happiness.

Hong Jun Xuan did not dare to act rashly. He had personally saw the Guard Camp destroy one
thousand people with the flick of a finger. He was especially wary of the deathly black energy
that could ignore ling shields.
He sank into a situation where he could not retreat.
What good ideas do you have? He Jun Xuans eyes were bloodshot and his voice hoarse.
The other shidi looked at each other. After a while, a shidi said, Theres so many xiuzhe behind
Golden Crow City. Why doesnt Shixiong recruit them? I saw that the state of those heavy armor
xiuzhe wasnt so well after the battle. Golden Crow City may not be as strong as we imagine. If
we can recruit more people, our chances of victory would increase.
Hong Jun Xuan shook his head. If we win and order them to submit to us, none of them would
disobey. But now that victory is undecided, they will only watch. They would only obey if
Master came.
Everyone sank into silence again.
They had been hoping to get some achievements this time. Looking at it now, there was no hope
left. It was a disappointment that they would not get any achievements, but it was much better
than losing their life. The strength of Golden Crow City was beyond their imagination. Unless
Master personally came, they didnt feel that any faction in Little Mountain Jie would be able to
conquer this little city.
Hong Jun Xuan knew what the shidi were all thinking, but he didnt have a solution at this time.
It was a great misstep to have come this time. The authority that he had managed to accumulate
would probably be lost this time.
But he was a decisive person. He understood the only solution now was to ask for aid from
Master.
Before Master came, if he could preserve the power of the present Outer Hall, even if he did not
earn any great accomplishments, he would be noted for his work. After thinking it through, he
instantly made his response. Lets stay on the defensive. Ill trouble one shidi to go make a trip
and send a letter to Master for me.
Several shidi instantly jumped out. They all wanted to leave this nightmarish place faster.
Seventh Shidi happily put away the jade scroll that Hong Jun Xuan handed over, and made his
farewells. He quickly flew into the air and left on his sword. The other shidi were all discontent,
but they didnt have any way around it. Seventh Shidi flew the fastest among them all.
Just as everyone was grumbling, a sword light flew at astounding speed towards the camp.
Hm, why has Seventh Shidi come back? one of the people remarked in puzzlement.

They saw Seventh Shidi land in the camp with a terrified expression. The moment he stepped on
the ground, he stumbled, his face full of panic. Second Shixiong! Second Shixiong! Not good!
People are coming over
Boom, the camp instantly became a mess. All of the Clear Sky Sect disciples had expressions of
anger. Had Clear Sky Sect really become a softy for anyone to squeeze? Any random person
could run and shit over their heads? Hong Jun Xuan, who had lost at Golden Crow City, instantly
became angry!
Hmph! They really dare to rebel against the heavens! After this Golden Crow City, they all
think that they are Golden Crow City!
The Clear Sky Sect disciples hurriedly agreed. With a rumble, everyone rose into the sky.

After resting from battle for a few days, the xiuzhe in the surroundings had become slightly
bored. Seeing the Outer Hall fly into the sky once again, they instantly became alert.
Were they going to continue to attack Golden Crow City?
Many people secretly shook their heads. Many of them had been thinking, out of boredom, these
days on how to attack Golden Crow City, but they found that this little Golden Crow City wasnt
something they could swallow. Only two of Golden Crow Citys cards had been revealed, and
they destroyed two thousand and five hundred people from the Outer Hall. Who knew how many
more tricks did they have up their sleeves?
To say of nothing else, just the city walls that exuded a faint solar aura was already extraordinary.
These people had all went inside Golden Crow City to buy Black Processing Meditation mats.
The dense and dizzying formations that could be seen everywhere in Golden Crow City made
many xiuzhe that thought they were skilled in formations feel embarrassed.
If there wasnt a jindan expert, such a strong city could only be taken using lives.
However, the direction the Outer Hall was facing seemed to be opposite to Golden Crow
City.
Everyone watched in astonishment. What was the Outer Hall doing? They saw a seven hundred
or so troop appear in their view and understood. The news that the cadet halls of the Outer Hall
had been attacked had long spread throughout Little Mountain Jie. Many people speculated this
unusually mysterious and strong troop was very likely to be a force from Golden Crow City!
The six divisions of Vermillion Bird Camp silently floated in the air as they faced the Outer Hall.
Such an elite force! A bright light suddenly exploded in the eyes of the middle-aged person
who couldnt help but exclaim.
How so? Their numbers seem too few, said the large male as he looked with shock at the
middle-aged person. It was extremely rare to hear this person praise others usually. He hadnt
expected that Golden Crow City, and now this troop, would receive such high praise in the last
few days.
The only weakness is that there is not enough people! The middle-aged person said, Daren,
look closely at this troop. The shape of this troop is not as strictly organized as the armorwearing xiuzhe from two days ago, but in reality, it only appears loose on the outside, but is tight
on the inside. This is a quality that would only appear on troops that are experienced at battle.
Facing so many enemies, they are not the least bit panicked or rushed. This means that they are
confident.
If this kind of troop is in our sect, what could it rank? the large male asked in curiosity.

It should enter the top ten, the middle-aged person said gravely.
The large male suddenly changed expression. He finally started to look seriously at this troop
that was only seven to eight hundred people. The top ten troops in his sect were all famous in
their jie. His dream was to possess a troop that could enter the top ten, but up until now, he was
very far from his goal.
People who had keen eyes were not few. The biggest feeling that Vermillion Bird Camp gave
everyone was a pressure that blew straight at them.
They just stood there, yet an invisible pressure unconsciously spread out.

Gongsun Cha glanced at the naked corpses that covered the mountain, a rock inside his heart
landing. Mirth floated at the corner of his mouth. Only Shixiong could create such a spectacular
scene. To not leave even one pair of pants behind, that was the classic style of Shixiong.
Narrowing his eyes to look at the other side, Gongsun Cha smiled again. With his present eyes,
he could see with a glance that the Outer Hall had been greatly impacted, their morale at a low.
It seemed that Shixiong had been a bit heavy-handed!
When the other people saw the bare corpses under their feet, all of their expressions were
extremely strange.
Zuo Mo received a report that Gongsun Shidi and the others had come back. He hurriedly
climbed onto the lucky cloud, and took the female xiu as he slowly floated into the sky above
Golden Crow City.
Seeing that the expressions of Vermillion Bird Camp were slightly tired, but the morale was high,
and there were no fatalities, a rock landed in his chest. He decided to exchange greetings with
Shidi, but when the words reached his mouth, they instantly changed flavor.
Shidi! Dont let go of any of them!
Zuo Mo shouted at the top of his lungs. His voice echoed in the mountain valleys.
The spectators realized at this time that this troop of seven hundred people was, as expected, the
elite of Golden Crow City. The middle-aged person and the large males hypothesis that Zuo Mo
came from a hidden sect was reinforced by this call of Shidi.
A thought floated on everyones minds. It seemed that the master of Golden Crow City was full
of confidence towards this elite force. He actually didnt want any of the enemy to escape. The
grievance between Golden Crow City and Clear Sky Sect seemed to grow. Golden Crow City
wanted to massacre the Outer Hall.
As expected, this wasnt an ordinary person. Just this mannerism was extraordinary.
Zuo Mo then gravely added a sentence, They are all fat sheep! You cant let any of them go!
Everyone collectively turned to stone. The praise on the face of the middle-aged person suddenly
froze.

Hong Jun Xuan felt he would die from embarrassment. When were Clear Sky Sect disciples that
led five thousand people called fat sheep by others, and also not let any of them go?
Humiliation! This was true humiliation!
The faces of the Clear Sky Sect disciples flushed red. They stared hatefully at the procession of
Gongsun Cha. They didnt dare to attack Golden Crow city. However, a troop that wasnt even

eight hundred strong dared to be so arrogant in front of them, and said that they would all be
defeated! Even if they went back to the sect now, they could never raise their heads in front of
the other disciples.
You dont need me to say anything. Hong Jun Xuan said darkly, When has us Clear Sky Sect
disciples been humiliated so?
Dont worry, Shixiong! A shidis face was filled with killing intent. Leave none of them
standing! We need to let them taste what it is like to leave none of them standing!
Yes! At that time, we will also strip their corpses! another shidi viciously said.
Hong Jun Xuan said gravely, I wont say too much. If anyone dares to retreat and fear battle
today, I will personally execute them! I believe that even if Master was here, he wouldnt blame
me!
Yes! everyones hearts shook as they responded together.

Rong Wei along with the two hundred compound guards flew as fast as they could. That troop
had been too fast. They had used all their power, and just managed to not lose track of the troop.
The other clearly had an emergency and ignored their group, who followed behind.
After flying for several days and nights, she was exhausted. However, she found it was
unimaginably queer that the troop did not show any signs of exhaustion.
How was it possible? Were they metal people?
When she saw the mysterious and strong troop up ahead, she released a breath. She hadnt lost
them. After following for so many days, she was finally slightly familiar with this troop. This
was a true elite force. Even if they were in a crowd, she could easily find them.
However, she immediately stilled.
Because facing against this troop was a vast troop of approximately five thousand people!
Were were they going to challenge an enemy who had numbers about six times their
own?
How how was this possible? Were they crazy? After flying continuously for so many days,
how could they still have the energy?

Gongsun Cha did not notice this gaze that was filled with disbelief behind him. He gave a shy
and bashful smile. The people around him shook simultaneously. These few days, Lil Miss face
had remained cold. Now he was showing his trademark smile, they felt their hair stand up on
end.
Do you all understand what Boss means?
Understood! everyone instinctively replied.
Then lets begin. In the depths of Gongsun Chas shy and smiling pupils, a cold blade-like light
suddenly ignited.
Translator Ramblings: Warlord is back to edit after taking the month off to focus on graduation.
The chapter title was a spoiler but it wasnt as if no one didnt expect Lil Miss to come back.
Thanks to everyone who commented!

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Ninety Five Battle General!
This chapter has been brought to you by me, warlord212, and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter Two Hundred and Ninety Five Battle General!
Vermillion Bird Camp did not immediately act.
They were like patient huntsmen waiting for their prey to reveal a fatal weakness. Continuous
combat had caused them to mature quickly. Not just Gongsun Cha, it was also true of everyone
else. In the present, they didnt need Gongsun Cha to send down orders. Every person knew what
they should do.
Gongsun Chas eyes were sparkling, his face holding the bashful smile that was unique to him.
He clearly had been induced to elation by Shixiongs suggestion.
Seeing the smile on Lil Miss face, everyone understood that Lil Miss was getting serious. They
hurriedly became one hundred and twenty percent alert and gathered their mind. If they couldnt
complete it well, then what was waiting for them would be inhumane
They collectively shook.
Everyone wiped their eyes clean, and revealed a light that made others feel trepidation.
The first to act was the Outer Hall. The five thousand strong army suddenly divided into five
troops. Two of the troops charged straight forward, and another two circled around to the flanks.
They want to surround us? Ma Fan was stunned.
Ha! Xie Shan smiled, filled with killing intent.

Everyone could see that the Outer Hall wanted to swallow this elite force of Golden Crow City
in one go.
This troop from Golden Crow City is overconfident. The large male shook his head. At least
this time, the Outer Hall didnt do anything stupid. They finally understand that their greatest
advantage is their numbers. If they can bog down this troop, they can slowly grind them dead.
The middle-aged person was silent. He didnt speak, but he agreed with the large male inside.

Naturally, they were not the only ones who could see this. Rong Wei also saw this.
She looked with puzzlement at this troop that was about to be surrounded. After following for so
many days, she had her own opinion about this mysterious troop.
This was a true elite troop!
They were skilled in tactics, had outstanding individual manpower, was well organized,
persistent, and had endurance in combat. How could such a troop make such a common and lowlevel mistake? They were elite, but the difference in numbers was truly too great. In the present
situation, their best tactic was to use their own actions to continuously manipulate the enemy,
and find chances to continuously gnaw on them.
But Vermillion Bird Camp seemed to be unaffected about being surrounded.
She felt pity inside. Such an elite troop would die here. She had originally wanted to have a
partnership with the other. Looking at it now, she had to find another way.

Just as the others were feeling pity, Vermillion Bird Camp finally moved!
Without any finesse, the charged directly at the two troops that were flying at them.
Everyone was filled with bewilderment. The two troops that were directly in front of them added
together was nearly two thousand people. It was the direction that had the greatest number of
people, and should have been the least likely choice to make a breakthrough.
But Vermillion Bird Camp chose to directly breakthrough!
Acceleration! Acceleration without any hesitation!
In the sky, tearing howls rose.
Ma Fan and Xie Shan lead the first charge. They instantly attracted everyones gaze.
Ma Fans illusory movement method was at its highest. The howling in his ears gradually faded
as they were left behind him due to his fast speed! In the sky, a string of afterimages blossomed,
and then were dissipated by the members that followed tightly behind him.
He didnt need to look to know that Xie Shan was definitely near him. They had partnered up
multiple times and were very in sync with each other.
His speed was so fast he could not even see the faces of the enemy clearly. He bent his head
down, and he focused while the flying sword appeared in his hand
The enemy neared at a shocking speed. The battle intent that was simmering inside his body
reached a peak in an instant, the ling power already prepared erupting out through the flying
sword!
Shadowless Sword of Destruction!
The intimidating sword essence gathered at the tip of each sword energy. With long afterimages
trailing behind, the sword energies flickered bright and dim.
The three xiuzhe targeted by the sword essence changed expression, and fled to the two sides in
panic!
Xie Shan had the highest cultivation, but in terms of talent in the sword and comprehension of
sword essence, Ma Fan was the number one in Vermillion Bird Camp. Each sword essence
would create three to five afterimages that made it hard to determine which was real and which
was not. The sky full of sword energies made a person feel unable to dodge. The dot of sword
essence at the tip of each sword energy was extremely pure and unable to be destroyed.
When every Outer Hall xiuzhe faced it, it felt as though the sword energy was pointed directly at
their brow. Their hearts were stunned.
The Outer Hall xiuzhe retreated to the two sides like a retreating tide everywhere Ma Fan passed.
The ling power of Xie Shans body was channeled to the extreme. The pressure exuded by a
terrifying cultivation of over one hundred and eighty jing was enough to drive a person insane.
The Outer Hall xiuzhe suddenly thought of that terrifying ningmai third stratum xiuzhe that had
almost destroyed Nan Sheng Village on his own.
The spectators rumbled and flew into the sky to looked with shock at the battlefield.

Each person could clearly feel the waves released by Xie Shan. A ningmai third stratum xiuzhe
with a cultivation surpassing one hundred and eighty jing was the peak existence in ningmai.
However the middle-aged person next to the large male favored Ma Fan more.
It is rare for someone so young to possess such a pure sword essence. In the future, he would
easily become an expert. If there is a chance, it is good to recruit him.

The large male disagreed inside. In the sect, there were many shidi who possessed such power.
He lacked interest in Ma Fan.
The middle-aged person knew that the large male was thinking, and sighed inside. In his view,
the fact that Ma Fan could cultivate such a pure sword essence in such an environment was
enough to prove his outstanding talent. The disciples from the sect were good in their strength,
but how much lingdan and wondrous medicines had been used to build that up?
However, he did not persuade further.

Another who had the same view as the middle-aged person was Rong Wei. However, she knew
the power of Vermillion Bird Camp and did not have any intentions of recruiting the other.
However, the shock she had increased. This troop was filled with all sorts of talents, and was
even more powerful than she had imagined.
She suddenly glanced at the male that was floating on the lucky cloud above Golden Crow City.
Just now, she had heard him shout Shidi. Was he the one in charge? When her gaze landed on
the mask wearing female xiu next to the male, she had a strong feeling that the power of this
female xiu wasnt simple, though she could not see it.
This group of people were not simple!

The expressions of the Clear Sky Sect disciples were all ugly. The strong combat abilities shown
by Ma Fan and Xie Shan caused the Outer Hall xiuzhe to retreat. No one dared to block them for
an instant.
Quickly, four Clear Sky Sect disciples charged at the two people at the same time.
Xie Shan snickered, the flying sword in his hand rising as he suddenly accelerated. His entire
figure turned into a smear of multi-colored light as he charged towards the four!
In sync, Ma Fans figure swerved and left the four people behind but still charging forward.
Behind him, Nian Lu instantly took his place. Beside Nian Lu, Lei Peng had a snarling smile as
he charged at the four Clear Sky Sect disciples that Xie Shan was covering. Beside Lei Peng, the
other expects all moved forward, brimming with murderous intent.
They didnt give anyone the chance to fight on their own. Taking advantage of Xie Shan trapping
the disciples, the sabre and sword energies of Lei Peng and the others silently flashed by.
A line of blood simultaneously appeared on the throats of the four people.
Their eyes were wide, terror frozen on their faces as if they wanted to say something.
No one paid attention to them. None of the xiuzhe from the Sky Peak Platoon looked at the four
Clear Sky Sect disciples and raced passed them.
Having gotten rid of what was behind him, Ma Fan was alone as the head of the arrow. His wrist
shook and the sword energies that had been prepared long ago, pew pew pew, were like a sword
energy rain. Everyone suddenly felt their vision light up. The sword energies carried a skycovering presence as the keen sword essence covered everything. Everyone felt their scalp
prickle, and their expressions changed.
Their minds stolen away, they instinctively dodged.
Sky Peak Platoon was like a burning hot blade slicing through butter. Without any resistance, it
easily divided the troops in two.

What was following tightly after was the six divisions of Vermillion Bird Camp.
Different from the unparalleled keenness of Sky Peak Platoon, what the six divisions displayed
was power. If Sky Peak Platoon was a sharp knife, then the six divisions were six heavy
hammers, thirty thousand catties heavy, and unable to be stopped!
In front of the six divisions, the two thousand people were like paper-mache, and easily
penetrated. When they passed, they left behind a straight line of bloody rain.
In the blink of an eye, the situation of the battlefield instantly reversed. Everyone gaped.
Having broken through and messed up the ranks of the two thousand people at the front, the
advantages of the two sides instantly reversed. At this time, Vermillion Bird Camp held the
advantage.
This this
Countless people gaped. They looked dazedly as Vermillion Bird Camp broke through the ranks
of two thousand people in an instant. That was two thousand people! That number was three
times that of Vermillion Bird Camp!
The xiuzhe that lost organization were like headless mosquitoes moving in random directions. It
was useless no matter how Hong Jun Xuan shouted and raged.

The faces of the large male, the middle-aged person, and Rong Wei changed at the same time!
Their eyes were keener and more acute. The collision between the two sides had just been a short
instant, but this short instant had given them too much of a shock, and too much content that they
needed to digest.
More than ten xiuzhe that comprehend sword essence!
If it was just based on numbers, the large male shouldnt be so shocked. There were many
disciples inside the sect that comprehend sword essence. But those were disciples. When these
disciples entered the battalions, they were the backbone.
To use experts that comprehended sword essence to specially construct a little troop for charging

He had never heard of such a thing, much less seen it.


It was too luxurious!
The large male felt he was almost going insane. He started to doubt. Was his sect really a large
sect? Why did he feel he was poor?
Rong Wei looked at the chaotic battle field in the air. She had made a high estimate previously
about the combat abilities of this troop of seven hundred or so people, but after seeing them fight
with her own eyes today, she found that she had greatly underestimated them.
Battle general!
This was definitely a troop that possessed a battle general, and a battle general that was not of a
low-rank.
The brutal and sharp charge was like a blade that accurately dismembered the opponent. The
cooperation and support between each troop, including their advancing paths and the timing of
attack was flawless!
Rong Wei felt cold sweat stream down. The Marquis had done his best to teach her. She had also
learned how to be a battle general. Otherwise, the Marquis would not have sent her on this
mission.

As early as when she was fifteen, she had received the Green Bronze Battle General Medal from
the licensing office. Her talent had been astounding.
Comparing herself to that young person, she secretly rejoiced that she hadnt hung that Bronze
Battle General Medal on her waist.
She looked from a distance at the young person that was tightly guarded in the middle, and felt it
was hard to comprehend. From childhood, what she had heard the most of were praises of how
talented she was. Today, she had personally seen a young person who wasnt much older than
her, but was much more skilled than she was.
Gongsun Cha did not detect that someone was looking at him. His eyes were like stars in the
night spreading a glowing light.
Constantly paying attention to the changes on the battlefield, he suddenly spoke.
Prepare to begin.
Translator Ramblings: There is five troops, two at the flanks, two attacking from the front, and
one at the back coughClearSkySectdisciplescough.
I like how Gongsun Chas ragtag army of sword xiu is such a blow to the worldview of Rong
Wei and the large man. But it is survival of the fittest. Only the relatively strong survived the
chaos, then there was Lil Miss training camp, then there was the sword formation, so these
people are strong for their category.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Ninety Six Silver
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom and warlord212.
Chapter Two Hundred and Ninety Six Silver
After such a charge, over five hundred of the two thousand people had been killed.
Scum, Lei Pengs voice was full of scorn as he said and continued, So many people but they
cant even stop one wave.
Nian Lu said unconcernedly, Isnt this better? Otherwise, we would need to have spent more
effort. Careful that we cant finish Boss mission.
Were really going to kill all of them? Lei Peng grumbled.
You think? Dont think you can get out of it! Nian Lu brushed the bangs in front of his
forehead as he said, Boss said it in front of this many people. If we cant finish, hee hee. We
cause Boss to lose face, that means we cause Lil Miss to lose face. If we lose Lil Miss face,
you dont need me to say the rest.
I know that. Lei Peng adopted the mannerism of one looking for defeat. I just feel that there is
no joy in defeating this kind of enemy.
Enemy? Oh, you are wrong, they are just fat sheep. The pleasure in killing fat sheep is to strip
them, not defeat them.
The two didnt have the time to chat. Lil Miss orders quickly passed over. The two rapidly
gathered their minds and turned around.
Vermillion Bird Camp that had just thrust their way to the back lines of the enemy had suddenly
turned and charged back.
The chaotic mess of over one thousand xiuzhe that had just been scattered by the charge instantly
started to wail. Lacking effective organization, they ran in all directions in panic.

But there was no place to escape. They immediately met the Vermillion Bird Camp xiuzhe that
had already sneaked their way to the flanks. After a few dozen were killed in a row, the rest of
people were scared half to death and turned to run.
The platoons that swam at the ranks did not pursue them. They were only responsible for herding
the xiuzhe that were preparing to flee back into the big group.
The Vermillion Bird Camp that had turned back to kill seemed to be herding sheep as they
continuously herded the one thousand people that had been robbed of their courage.

Hong Jun Xuans limbs felt cold, his expression hopeless as he stood dazedly in the sky. He
continuously saw the Outer Hall xiuzhe move past him, their faces filled with terror and
hopelessness. All of his set up had been disrupted. The Outer Hall xiuzhe that came flooding into
the remaining three troops.
Terror quickly spread. The troops that had already had low morale instantly collapsed, they had
been routed.

On top of the lucky cloud, Zuo Mo looked at the chaotic battlefield. He couldnt help shaking his
head, and said, This kind of troop is only strong on the surface. He then smiled, and snickered,
Its all ours.
The female xiu stood by him like a wooden mannequin.
Zuo Mo actually was just talking to himself. He didnt hope that the female xiu would give a
response. If the female xiu suddenly talked, he would definitely be scared.
The Vermillion Bird Camps simultaneous shouts of Surrender to not die could be heard from
far away. The hopeless Outer Hall xiuzhe all surrendered so easily that even Zuo Mo was
shocked.
The direction of the entire battle was unexpected to everyone. Even Zuo Mo and Gongsun Cha
almost couldnt believe that more than four thousand people could give up resisting so easily,
and collectively surrender.
The other people were stunned.
The middle-aged person was the first to respond. He shook his head and sighed. What the Outer
Hall does is not righteous in the end. A troop constructed in this manner had nothing to speak in
terms of discipline. Theres no problem usually, but if they encounter danger, they cannot
withstand a single blow.
The large male objected, If it is the elite from our sect, it is unknown who will win.
The middle-aged person smiled while he spoke, The elite from the sect can compare to this
troop, but what about the battle general?
The large male stilled. A thousand soldiers were easy to obtain, but one general was hard to
request. It was hard to raise a battle general. There were rarely those that could come out of the
wild. Only large sects would be able to educate some. Of all the licensing offices, the battle
general licensing office was always the least populous, but after the incident at Bloody Sky
Metropolis Jie, the battle general classes were as common as rain.
Of course, those were just to con people of jingshi.

But from the side, it was possible to see the desire of all sects regarding battle generals.
Presently, battle general had become the most popular and employable profession. The sect had
three or five battle generals, but they only had Bronze Medals.
The battle general of this troop definitely was not just a Bronze ranked general.
The level above Bronze Medal was the Silver Metal. Each Silver battle general was a rarely
found talent. The price to recruit a Silver battle general was even higher than a jindan sword xiu.
Was he a Silver battle general
The large male stared at Gongsun Chas bashful and delicate face. He almost couldnt believe it.

Rong Wei was just as shocked as he was. However, Rong Wei wasnt just postulating, she was
sure of it. She herself was a Bronze battle general, and had a more accurate judgment of
Gongsun Chas skill.
This young person with a shy and bashful smile like that of the neighbours little boy definitely
was a Silver ranked battle general!
Clear Sky Sect really kicked a metal board this time!
Rong Wei stared at the battlefield without a word. Behind her were the shocked faces of the
compound guards.
Her gaze suddenly landed on the black young person sitting on the lucky cloud. That was the
master of Golden Crow city. She imperceptibly furrowed her brows. The master of Golden Crow
City seemed to be admiring the bare feet of the female.
She hadnt expected him to be a lusty person.
She felt pity inside. The future of such a young Silver battle general was unlimited, but he was
under the command of such a lusty person. She felt great regret.

Zuo Mo stared at the perfect bare feet of the female xiu, saying to himself, Tell me, will Clear
Sky Forefather come this time?
After the previous experience with the Nine Turn Sky Soil Disk, Zuo Mos relationship with the
female xiu had unconsciously became closer. Even he didnt seem to realize it.
The bare feet of the female xiu would unconsciously attract his attention. At the beginning, he
had been slightly embarrassed, but afterwards, he found that the female xiu did not care at all, so
he did it openly.
This was in pursuit of beautiful things! Zuo Mos reason was righteous.
He should probably come soon.
Zuo Mo didnt move aside his eyes as he spoke to himself.
Clear Sky Old Forefather
The female xiu was silent.
Gathering the spoils was a very familiar practice for Vermillion Bird Camp. Bao Yi also hurried
out of Golden Crow City to help. It didnt even take two hours for all of the captives to be
completely stripped clean.
The spectating xiuzhe all watched with burning eyes. They wanted to go and get some benefits as
well. However, after just seeing the strong combat capabilities of Vermillion Bird Camp, no one
dared to act.

When Hong Jun Xuan and the other Clear Sky Sect disciples were taken to Zuo Mo, each of
them only had their pants left.
If you dare to even harm one of our hairs, the Old Forefather wont have mercy on you! a
Clear Sky Sect disciple said severely.
Crazy, Zuo Mo rolled his eyes. Look at the situation, saying these words, did he not want to live?
Hong Jun Xuan suddenly shouted at this disciple, Shut up!
He dismissed the disciple and turned to Zuo Mo to say, We are all core disciples of Clear Sky
Sect. If Sir can give us a way to survive, we are willing to pay an appropriate price.
Zuo Mos eyes lit up. Nothing was more attractive to him than jingshi, but his mouth went, Oh,
but you do not have anything right now.
Please give me a paper crane. This one believes the price will definitely satisfy Sir. Hong Jun
Xuan recovered his previous calm.
Zuo Mo thought, and then shook his head.
Why? Hong Jun Xuan instantly started to panic. If the other did not agree, then his little life
was in danger. He thought the other was unsatisfied. Two hundred pieces of fourth-grade
jingshi? This price
The shidi in the surroundings all inhaled sharply as they looked in disbelief at Second Shixiong.
None of them had expected Second Shixiong to be so wealthy.
Where had Second Shixong gotten this much jingshi from?
Zuo Mo still shook his head.
And half of the profits from the Outer Hall! Hong Jun Xuan said painfully, Sir should also
know how much the Outer Hall can earn in a year. If Sir allows us to survive, the Outer Hall is
still under our control
Second Shixiong, youre crazy a Clear Sky Sect disciple couldnt resist saying.
Shut up! Hong Jun Xuans face was black, tendons bulging. Do you want to die here?
The other people instantly stopped talking.
Hong Jun Xuan was like a gambling addict that had lost everything. He looked at Zuo Mo. How
about it?
Zuo Mo still shook his head.
What do you want? Hong Jun Xuan was almost going insane.
To kill Clear Sky Old Forefather, Zuo Mo said calmly.
All the Clear Sky Sect disciples first stilled and then laughed as though they had heard an
impossible joke.
Hong Jun Xuan almost couldnt breathe from laughing so hard. After a while, he stopped, and
said with a mocking smile, Dont joke. You want to kill Old Forefather? Just you guys? I feel
that you should consider my previous suggestion.
Zuo Mo said with interest, Oh, what? Our power isnt enough?
Its not just that it isnt enough. Hong Jun Xuan said with a cold smile, Old Forefather has
jindan cultivation, his power limitless. You may have some power, but in front of Old Forefather,
you basically have no room to move. How about it? Consider my suggestions, people have to be
realistic.
A hint of pride unconsciously came onto Hong Jun Xuans face.
Zuo Mo did not have any interest in wasting words with them. He turned and left. Everyones
perspective was different. Hong Jun Xuan and the others could not understand many of his
thoughts. He waved his hand without turning his head. Dont keep these people, make sure they
wont come back to haunt us in the future.

Hong Jun Xuan and the others faces instantly turned as pale as paper.

After such an encounter, Golden Crow Citys name had truly spread through Little Mountain Jie.
The rise of this group of people and this city was completely without warning. No one knew their
origins.
But even the dumbest person knew that the final battle between Golden Crow City and Clear Sky
Sect was coming.
No matter if it was the Black Processing Meditation mat or this big battle made it so the two
could only fight to the death.
After this great battle, the gates of Golden Crow City remained tightly shut and under heavy
guard. No one knew what was happening inside the walls. The sounds of explosions occasionally
came from inside the city. Some xiuzhe that were daring desired to fly up into the sky to look, but
they were almost killed by the hard lightning released by the formation battle watchtowers.
The Golden Crow City that was entirely preparing for battle made the other xiuzhe feel the
tenseness of the situation even more. There was no one within one hundred li of Golden Crow
City. Even though they wanted to see with their own eyes like they did previously the great battle
that was coming, but they didnt dare this time.
Coming from Clear Sky Sect this time would only be one person, Clear Sky Old Forefather.
The only jindan remaining in Little Mountain Jie!
The following days were cloudy and unspeakably foreboding.
A storm was approaching.
Translator Ramblings: Battle generals have their rankings but the author did an oopsie on the
naming. In this chapter, it is moon silver but over the rest of the story, he always used white
silver. Then there is green copper before that, and in the future, these is yellow gold. To
simplify things, and to avoid having to figure out if it is moon silver or white silver, I am just
using bronze, silver and gold. It is also somewhat superfluous to repeat the color of the metal for
silver and gold. Bronze is copper with tin added and it turns green if buried which is what the
Chinese used to name bronze.
Poor Hong Jun Xuan. He doesnt get it.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Ninety Seven Hardship Guard Armor
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Two Hundred and Ninety Seven Hardship Guard Armor
Good! Good! Good! Clear Sky Old Forefather said the word good repeatedly, unrestrained
killing intent spilling out around him. In the sky above Clear Sky Sect, the clouds and wind
suddenly changed. The black clouds were dark like lead. All over the sect, all the disciples shook
in fear.
I had never thought that the line of succession of Clear Sky would end in my hands. Clear Sky
Old Forefather looked at his palms that were smooth like those of an infant, his voice as calm as
water, but the killing intent in the surroundings was becoming increasingly heavy. He raised his

head, his eyes cold. I was just in seclusion for a few months, yet so much has changed. The
heavens! Even if it is the will of the heavens, they cannot stop this Old Forefather!
He stood and his eyes scanned the disciples that were standing with their heads bowed below
him. If I have still not come back in ten days, you shall all run for your lives.
When he finished, he did not wait for anyone to react before disappearing from the hall.

The atmosphere inside Golden Crow City was nervous.


In the sky above Guard Camp, a black energy covered the sky and did not dissipate for days. The
xiuzhe from Vermillion Bird Camp guarded the gate. Their eyes all held hints of shock. The sharp
killing essence was so thick that even they did not feel comfortable.
They could not understand how those weak xiuzhe slaves could become so terrifying after just a
few months.
Zuo Mo nervously looked at the field and the rows of camp guards lined up in rows. After
returning back to Golden Crow City that day, Shu Long and the others had maintained this
position motionlessly for ten days.
The thick killing essence on their bodies made them look like the gods of slaughter that came
from hell.
The black energy around each person was restlessly moving. Shu Longs black energy was so
thick that it was not possible to see his figure or features, they were completely covered by the
black energy.
Are they alright? Zuo Mo was very worried.
If they can make it through, then theyll be fine. If they cant, then all that is left for them is
death. Pu Yaos voice was unconcerned, but Zuo Mo could still heard the thread of nervousness
contained inside.
All of this killing essence needs to be completely absorbed into the body?
En, no one knows everything about the profound mysteries of essence. Mo emphasize slaughter,
and their killing essence is the strongest. Their killing essence can become tangible, which is
quite a coincidence. However, for them, this opportunity to make a breakthrough is slightly early.
I dont know if they can make it through.
At this time, Shu Longs body suddenly started to tremble, the black energy that shrouded his
body fiercely moving restlessly.
It has started! Pu Yao exclaimed. Zuo Mos heart rose.
The black energy was like slender worms that continuously burrowed into Shu Longs body. Shu
Longs shaking increased in magnitude.
Killing essence corroding the body is the most difficult barrier. Pu Yao stared fixedly at Shu
Long and said rapidly, Their bodies are naturally weak. If they want to keep cultivating, they
must get through this gate. If that guy was still alive, this would actually be the simplest matter

Zuo Mo didnt dare to move away his eyes. People were not plants, it was impossible to be
emotionless upon familiarity. No matter what thoughts these xiu slaves had, he could clearly feel
the trust they had in him. Every single one of them were willing to put their lives on the line for
him.
The battle outside Golden Crow City had proven this.

It would be false to say he was not moved. No matter what, he didnt want anything to happen to
Shu Long and the others. These last few days, any materials and talismans that were necessary,
no matter how expensive, as long as he had it, he unhesitatingly gave it to them.
He didnt dare to have great hopes for their breakthrough. He hadnt cultivated for a long time,
but he still understood the importance of a solid foundation in cultivation. Shu Long and the
others had very shallow foundations. The possibility of a breakthrough was not high. He only
hoped that nothing bad would happen to them.
No matter how great of a favor he did for Shu Long and the others, they had fought using their
lives for him once. Zuo Mo felt that they had repaid him. Even more, he had never felt that he
had done any great favors for Shu Long and the others.
Shu Longs body shook like dice. The black energy streamed through his nostrils and his skin.
The black energy around his body became faint, and his features started to gradually become
clear.
Zuo Mo couldnt help but make a sound of surprise.
Shu Longs features had changed greatly. The weariness on his face had disappeared, the
wrinkles had disappeared. He appeared much younger. The skin was black and shiny like they
had been polished with oil.
Zuo Mo was filled with wonderment. When Shu Long was young, he had been very handsome.
A high nose, a knife-sharp brow, a structured face, deep-set eyes, and tightly pressed lips. The
flavor of weariness had disappeared to be replaced by a feeling of deep maturity.
At his forehead, there was a black crystal.
Zuo Mo noticed that sometime ago, Shu Longs outside was covered by a suit of shiny black
armor. The black armor was connected with his body, tightly pressed against his body, and
almost enclosing his whole body. Pia, the black heavy armor was brutally pierced through sheer
pressure.
Compared to the Golden Armor Guards, Shu Longs black suit of armor was tighter, and more
exquisite. It gave the feeling of stability yet was filled with strength.
Guard armor! Pu Yaos voice was filled with surprised joy.
What is guard armor?
When [Hardship Guard] is cultivated to a certain level, they will create guard armor. This suit of
armor has many abilities. When their cultivation deepens, they will be much stronger! Pu Yao
said excitedly, When they break through to the next level, they could gather killing essence to
form weapons. By that time, hee hee
Zuo Mos heart was filled with joy. He felt happy for Shu Long.
Shu Longs breakthrough seemed like a signal. The other camp guards successively created their
guard armor.
This process continued for ten whole hours. In these ten hours, Zuo Mo didnt dare to leave for
an instant.
When the last camp guard finished his breakthrough, Shu Longs tightly-closed eyes opened.
The gaze was as bright as a star and as deep as a star was distant.
He lowered his body in a bow, a greeting that Zuo Mo had never seen before.
In the name of the Hardship Guard, to follow Daren, never leaving or abandoning!
Shu Longs voice was completely different than before, deep and resonant, pleasing to the ear.
In the name of the Hardship Guard, we follow daren, never leaving or abandoning!
One thousand Hardship Guards bowed at the same time.
Zuo Mo was stunned.


Rong Wei hadnt retreated far away like the other xiuzhe. She was looking from a distance on a
peak. On a peak nearby there was a large male and a middle-aged person. Other than that, there
were some other scattered xiuzhe, the great majority of which were ningmai third stratum xiuzhe.
It was a rare chance to personally see jindan fight.
This wasnt guidance, or sparring, but a battle to the death.
Up until now, no one had seen the mysterious master of Golden Crow City fight. The only
offensive move would probably be activating the Skyring Moon Chime Formation. However,
other than seeing that his skill in formations was extremely deep, it was not possible to see
anything about his power.
It would be seen in this battle.
Rong Wei had other thoughts. Truthfully, she didnt favor the master of Golden Crow City. Clear
Sky Old Forefather was a person that even the Marquis was slightly wary of. His power was not
so simple.
Only xiuzhe that knew jindan would know how strong a jindan was. To say of nothing else, but
the movement speed would leave ningmai in the dust was enough for a jindan to be
undefeatable. The difference in casting spells was a difference in the nature of power.
Fighting using numbers was not something that could be used against jindan. This meant that
Golden Crow City was fated to only defend. It also meant that Clear Sky Old Forefather would
always have the initiative.
It was a terrifying matter for a jindan that had the initiative and did not lack attacking moves.
Rong Wei definitely would not enter into this battle. She didnt have any qualifications.
However, if Golden Crow City was defeated, based on the Marquiss face, she may be able to
save that Moon Silver battle general. It would be too much of a pity if such a young Moon Silver
battle general died here.
And if she took the chance to recruit him
That was the idea she had.
She reflexively looked at the large male and the middle-aged person nearby. She detected the
origins of these two would not be small. Inside, she hoped that these people did not have the
same idea that she did.
Otherwise, another battle of slaughter could not be avoided. Even more importantly, if the Old
Forefather discovered that young person was a Silver battle general, they didnt have to think of
the matter anymore. Old Forefather would either recruit him or kill him.
There was no reason to let such a talent work under someone else.
This plan would only succeed if Clear Sky Old Forefather was ignorant.
Suddenly, a wave rippled across the sky in the distance. A vast presence that could not be
stopped covered all of Sky Star Mountain range
Everyones expression changed. They felt their body freeze, and were shocked.
He had come!
The golden light of Golden Crow City suddenly brightened, countless golden energies leaping up
and swimming like fish. They moved to cover the sky above Golden Crow City. Each formation
battle watchtower lit up with silver lights. In a blink of an eye, all thirty six formation battle
watchtowers were alight. A golden hoop rose into the sky spreading a burning golden light.
Countless golden threads dangled off, and a faint Buddhist chanting could be heard.

Clear Sky Old Forefather seemed to appear out of nowhere in the sky above Golden Crow City.
Hair loose, he looked to be in his forties, but his skin was like that of an infant. A snowy white
robe was carelessly tied on his body.
He faintly glanced at the people hiding at a distance to watch the fight.
Everyone felt their hearts uncontrollably jump, and were even more shocked.
The authority of a jindan was fierce!
Little Miss Rong, is the Marquis well? the Clear Sky Old Forefather faintly opened as though
he was speaking of daily activities.
Rong Wei could only come out. With the good fortune of Old Forefather, Marquis is well.
Oh, then why is Marquis trying to fight for this little jie with me? Clear Sky Old Forefathers
voice was still faint.
Rong Wei felt her breathing stop and almost fell. Her scalp pricking, she could only say, Old
Forefather is joking. With Old Forefather here, Marquis wont disturb you. Marquis only heard
that Stars in Daytime has appeared in Little Mountain Jie, and sent this servant to investigate.
Before coming Marquis had especially ordered this servant to first inform Old Forefather.
Oh, so thats how it is, Old Forefather nodded, after this matter, I will go visit the Marquis. If
you wish to see this battle, go back fifty more li.
The tone that Clear Sky Old Forefather spoke to her was very warm, but for some unknown
reason, Rong Weis heart froze. She didnt dare to hesitate, and hurriedly retreated fifty li back.
Everyone else, retreat one hundred li, Clear Sky Old Forefather said lightly, in ten breaths.
Otherwise, dont blame this Old Forefather for being impolite.
The atmosphere in the air was instantly as heavy as mountains.
The other people were even more shocked and retreated in panic. The large male and the middleaged persons expressions couldnt help but change. They exchanged a look, and retreated at the
same time.
No one dared to disobey a jindan.
At this time, Clear Sky Old Forefathers gaze casually turned to Golden Crow City.
Translator Ramblings: The point of view switch was very abrupt for this chapter but we finally
get Clear Sky Old Forefather out of his seclusion!
This time, it definitely is a Lil Cliffy.

and Ninety Eight Insanity

Chapter Two Hundred and Ninety Eight Insanity
Who killed Zhuo Guang?
Clear Sky Old Forefathers voice was not loud but could be heard from far away.
With Clear Sky Old Forefather stalking outside, Zuo Mo didnt dare to idly relax on the lucky
cloud like he did previously. However, this did not stop him for feeling scorn.
Ge finally knows why the people from Clear Sky Sect waste so many words. It starts at the
top.
Snort, several people couldnt resist laughing out loud. The tense atmosphere instantly relaxed.

Zuo Mo may have been speaking so, but he was actually very nervous inside. Wu Kong Sword
Sect had four jindan experts but he had never seen any jindan expert release their presence
without any restraint. Even that day that Wei Sheng entered zhuji, Xin Yan Shibo had not used all
of his power.
The pressure Clear Sky Old Forefather gave Zuo Mo was like a whole mountain pressing down.
He almost couldnt breathe.
Jindan was just as terrifying as he expected!
He didnt have any interest in wasting words. Since the two had gotten to this step, they didnt
need any excuse to fight. What first diplomacy, then war, wasnt that just nonsense?
Formation battle watchtowers, attack together! Zuo Mo gritted out the order.
The silver light of the thirty six formation battle watchtowers exploded!
Hundreds of bolts of hard light covered Clear Sky Old Forefather like raindrops.
Slightly interesting. Clear Sky Old Forefather smiled easily, his figure suddenly disappearing
from his spot.
Hundreds of hard lightning bolts missed and vanished into the sky.
Hiss, Zuo Mo couldnt help but inhale!
Such a fast speed!
His consciousness could not catch Clear Sky Old Forefathers speed! It was the first time he had
encountered a situation like this. The other xiuzhe in Golden Crow City all paled.
No one could keep up with the speed of Clear Sky Old Forefather!
He was so fast that even the hard lightning was slightly slower.
Even Zuo Mo had predicted that this battle would be extremely difficult, but it seemed the level
of difficulty far surpassed his imagination.
Without needing Zuo Mo to give the order, the second wave of hard lightning shot towards Clear
Sky Old Forefather.
It was ineffective!
Zuo Mo silently shook his head. The other was too fast, so fast that even the hard lightning could
not catch up.
As expected, Clear Sky Old Forefather disappeared from his spot again.
Couldnt catch him!
Zuo Mos pupils suddenly contracted. That wasnt right!
Clear Sky Old Forefather suddenly appeared in front of a bolt of hard lightning and raised his
palm.
Zzt-zzt-zzt!
The hard lightning seemed to have been stopped by an invisible wall that did not allow it to
advance. It stopped at a place three cun from his upright palm. Clear Sky Old Forefather calmly
reached out to pinch the hard lightning.
Pia pia pia!
The explosive hard lightning sounded and the snakelike electrical energies wrapped onto his
finger.
Clear Sky Old Forefather seemed to not notice it. He put the hard lightning bolt in front of him
and examined it. The flashing silver electricity reflected on his face, suddenly light and then it
went dim.
The idea is clever, very rare, very rare. A hint of shock came onto Clear Sky Old Forefathers
face. Other than surprise, he seemed to have admiration.

As his words landed, two white and narrow fingers pinched. The hard lightning bolt between the
fingers was squeezed into countless pieces of electricity and dissipated between his fingers.
Golden Crow City was in a deathly silence.
Everyone was shocked by this scene. Terror came onto Zuo Mos face.
That was hard lightning
Using fingers to crush hard lightning, that that wasnt possible!
Zuo Mos mind was blank. The strength of Clear Sky Old Forefather was far out of his
imaginations!
He stood there, dumbstruck.
Clear Sky Old Forefather wasnt in a hurry. He asked faintly, Who built the formation battle
watchtowers? They can be spared from death.
Zuo Mo gradually recovered. Thinking about how stunned he had been, he was slightly
embarrassed. So he was this afraid of death! The surroundings were deathly silent. Golden Crow
City was completely suppressed by Clear Sky Old Forefather. Some people even had expressions
of hopelessness.
Zuo Mos gaze accidentally swept across the female xiu beside him. Just like usual, the female
xiu was silently standing beside him like a wooden person. She was completely unaffected by
Clear Sky Old Forefather.
Zuo Mo was even more embarrassed. Ge wasnt even as good as a woman.
He raised his head and gazed at Clear Sky Old Forefather floating in the sky. His anger suddenly
erupted like fire.
This guy looked quite fine, but his intentions were extremely malicious. In this guys eyes, the
lives of other xiuzhe were not even worth a jingshi!
The more Zuo Mo thought, the angrier he became. If it wasnt for this guy, he would have left
Little Mountain Jie a long time ago. He wouldnt be worried and frightened everyday like he was
now!
Ge will play with you to the end today!
Zuo Mo became determined. Terror and fear instantly flew away.
Continue to shoot!
Zuo Mo ordered murderously. The other people stilled. Continue to shoot? But that was
completely ineffective. However, when their gaze met Zuo Mos vicious gaze, they instantly
shook. Boss was going all out! They became fully alert, and their terror of Clear Sky Old
Forefather instantly dissipated greatly.
The formation battle watchtowers lit up again!
Scorn spilled out of the corner of Clear Sky Old Forefathers eyes.
The light brightening, the hard lightning shot at Clear Sky Old Forefather again like raindrops.
Do not stop!
Zuo Mos shout could be heard by the entire city. The xiuzhe in the formation battle watchtowers
put their all in as their hearts shook.
The hard lightning was like rain, and extremely loud.
A light laugh passed from within the torrent of hard lightning.
Not one bolt of hard lightning managed to touch the hem of Clear Sky Old Forefathers clothes.
This time, he did not disappear from his spot, but nimbly dodged among the hard lightning rain.
For some unknown reason, his speed did not appear to be quick, but not one hard lightning bolt
could hit him.

When Clear Sky Old Forefathers light laugh landed in the ears of the xiuzhe in the formation
battle watchtowers, it instantly enraged all of them. All of them furiously channeled ling power
into the formation battle watchtower.
The light of the thirty-six formation battle watchtowers was so bright one could not look directly
at them.
The hard lightning was even more heavy like a storm. With a savage presence, it head over!
Keke.
The light laugh of Clear Sky Old Forefather clearly passed into the ears of everyone present
again.
Zuo Mos tightly pressed lips suddenly curved slightly upwards on one side.
Clang!
In the sky above Golden Crow City, the Buddha Sound Hoop suddenly released a ball of golden
light. The lingering Buddhist sound rose up!
An invisible ripple suddenly spread with Golden Crow City as the center!
The killing move of Skyring Moon Chime Formation [Moon Chime Sound Storm]!
Clear Sky Old Forefather who had been composed from the start suddenly froze in surprise.
Unable to dodge in time, a bolt of hard lightning hit his face!
Pia!
Electrical snakes danced on his face. The body of Clear Sky Old Forefather froze.
Pia pia pia!
Several more bolts of hard lightning hit his body in succession.
Boom!
The writhing electrical snakes collided with each other, and released a blinding light. Clear Sky
Old Forefather was completely covered by the hard lightning, and it was hard to make out his
figure.
Ha! Zuo Mo was very excited and wanted to jump up.
The reason that he had ordered the formation battle watchtowers to continue to shoot was to give
Clear Sky Old Forefather the impression that the formation battle watchtowers were their biggest
support. His mind was connected with Lil Pagoda. The timing to which the [Moon Chime Sound
Storm] was activated was perfect.
Hee hee, so what if hes a jindan? Didnt ge just trick him?
Zuo Mo was very smug and felt unspeakable comfortable like he had eaten a ginseng fruit.
However, he didnt hope that the hard lightning was enough to kill Clear Sky Old Forefather. The
others actions of crushing the hard lightning proved that hard lightning of this degree could not
cause fatal damage.
However, after this successful attack on Clear Sky Old Forefather, the morale of the troops rose.
The heavy pressure that was previously present in the city was swept away. Everyones faces
showed excited expressions. While most of the xiuzhe inside Golden Crow City were ningmai,
and was just a level from jindan, but ninety percent of the people had never seen jindan fight
before.
Every action that Clear Sky Old Forefather had made had all been to show how strong he was, so
strong that it made people feel hopeless. Zuo Mo used his actions to prove that jindan could be
hit too!
Everyone was greatly motivated. Everyone of them believed that this battle might be
unparalleled in difficulty but they did have a chance at victory. They did not fear that battle
would be difficult, but they were afraid all of their efforts would be all for naught.

The silver light dissipated, and Clear Sky Old Forefather once again appeared in front of
everyone.
When they clearly saw Clear Sky Old Forefathers state, everyone roared in laughter.
Clear Sky Old Forefathers robe now had some holes like that of a beggar. What really set them
off uncontrollably was the black burns on his face.
Zuo Mo roared with laughter. He suddenly flew into the sky, his right hand raised up high as he
shouted at everyone in the city, Everyone, listen well. Shout with me!
Everyone stopped laughing. They raised their heads, furiously gathering their ling power.
Excitement and exhilaration was on everyones faces.
Zuo Mo turned around, and faced Clear Sky Old Forefather. He took a deep breathe, pointed
with his finger towards Old Forefather, and hollered, Old Fart!
The seven thousand or so people inside Golden Crow City used all their strength to shout at the
same time, Old Fart!
The simultaneous shout of more than seven thousand people was so loud that even the mountain
peaks trembled, and the echoes reflected back.
Zuo Mos eyes were glaring angrily. Using all the strength in his body, he shorted again, Dont
show-off!
All of Golden Crow City followed in shouting, Dont show-off!
Zuo Mo shouted at the top of his lungs, Show-offs get struck by lightning!
Everyone felt the blood in their bodies shoot towards their heads. Without thinking, the ling
power in their bodies channeling to the limit, more than seven thousand people shouted angrily
in unison, Show-offs get struck by lightning!
The shout passed into the surroundings. A sound wave exploded with Golden Crow City as the
center, the sound not any less than the previous [Moon Chime Sound Storm]!
The entire mountain valley was echoing, Struck by lightning ing- ing!
Zuo Mo felt unspeakably great. His hands on his hips, he threw his head back and laughed,
Hahahahahaha!
An excited blush was on everyones faces. They all copied Zuo Mo in putting their hands on
their hips and throwing their heads back to laugh. Hahahahahaha!
The laughter of more than seven thousand people was filled with excitement and bravado, able to
be heard from far away.
Rong Wei gaped and was stunned.
The middle-aged persons face was filled with shock. However, the large male was very excited,
repeating to himself, So great! So great! This is so great!
Green and white intermingled on Clear Sky Old Forefathers face. All of the calmness, the
mannerisms of an expert was thrown to the back of his head.
His hair loose, his eyes gleamed viciously like a poisonous snake waiting to strike!
Zuo Mo seemed to be completely mad at this point. He raised his hand again. Everyone saw his
hand motions, and suppressed their own voices. Golden Crow City became so silent that the
sound of a needle landing on the ground could be heard.
Zuo Mos eyes were entirely red, and he said murderously, Brothers!
He paused slightly and then exploded, F*** him!
The thousands under him didnt even think as they shouted together, F*** him!
Zuo Mo felt all the emotions inside reached a peak. He suddenly increased his volume again as
he raged, Kill him!
Everyone was glaring as they hollered together, Kill him!

The killing energy was so much that the sky changed color!
Translator Ramblings: Warm up is over! What to do when you face a great enemy? Swear at him
and have a chorus with you.
Someone brought up the question of Zuo Mos present skin color as I translated it as black and
shiny. In Chinese, the word for black usually describes someone who is tanned and dark skinned.
It might throw you a bit off to think Zuo Mo might be inky black at this moment since most
Chinese fantasy stories usually have main characters with black hair, black eyes, and pale skin.
Zuo Mo has jade metal head as his mo physique. If you think back to his dhyana body
cultivation, his skin was tinged gold. So when Zuo Mos skin is described as shiny, I attributed it
to the jade metal head. With jade, there are connotations of white or green depending on your
favorite kind of jade.
The important part here is that the jade metal head should not turn his skin tanned, dark, or black
so the darkness has to come from somewhere or rather, the black energy of the gravestone. The
gravestone has been meddling with Zuo Mos body. Since the black energy is black in
color, I translated Zuo Mos skin tone as black which is also the more literal translation.

World of Cultivation Chapter Two Hundred


and Ninety Nine The Great Formation and
Sonic Lightning Walnut
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom and warlord212.
Chapter Two Hundred and Ninety Nine The Great Formation and Sonic Lightning Walnut
The Clear Sky Old Forefather felt an angry energy roiling restlessly inside his chest. Without a
care to anything else, he took out his flying sword and said darkly, You all will die!
Before the sound landed and Zuo Mo was even able to see the appearance of the flying sword,
the flying sword disappeared from in front of Clear Sky Old Forefather.
Everyone in Golden Crow City felt the entire sky start to slowly spin. Everything in the
surroundings started to become blurry.
Zuo Mo suddenly remembered that Huang Zhuo Guang used the sky sword essence. Then Clear
Sky Old Forefathers sky sword essence would probably be multiple times as pure.
Damn it! It would be better if the guy would fly a bit closer!
Zuo Mo glanced at Clear Sky Old Forefather that was still far away from Golden Crow City and
had to admire the person. Even though he was so angry, he still kept his calm. As expected of a
jindan expert!
The spinning sky suddenly lit up with many dots of light like countless stars being ignited.
A feeling of extreme danger came into Zuo Mos mind. He didnt dare to be careless, hurriedly
activating the formation. Countless formation scripts suddenly lit up on the walls of Golden
Crow City like complex flower patterns.
A half transparent golden ling shield wrapped Golden Crow City inside.
Everyones hearts eased slightly. At this moment, they heard Clear Sky Old Forefather say
clearly, Land!
The dots of light above their heads lit up, and countless swords of light fell from the skies like a
rainstorm, crashing against the ling shield of Golden Crow City!

The ling shield trembled heavily. The sharp sounds of collisions were as rapid as raindrops.
Everyone felt their hearts jump at each sound.
Zuo Mo pulled Shu Long over. Use the move you used last time!
Shu Long understood and hurried back to the ranks.
Shu Longs long hair flying, the black crystal on his forehead, and his eyes bent down. He
shouted gravely, Kill!
Threads of black energy erupted from their bodies at an astounding rate. In the blink of an eye,
the ranks of Guard Camp were covered in a black energy that blocked out the sun! As the black
energy rose, it was not affected by the ling shield, and gathered in the sky above Golden Crow
City.
A ball of restless black clouds covered all of Golden Crow City. The raindrops of sword energies
instantly became invisible as they landed in the black cloud.
Hm! The Clear Sky Old Forefather showed surprise again.
Even with all of his knowledge, he did not know what powerful spell the other was using.
In the Zuo Mos sea of consciousness, Pu Yao unconcernedly said to the gravestone, This old
fart, just a jindan and he dares to posture in front of this Sky Yao. He doesnt want to live.
His eyebrow rose, and he snorted, F*** him!
He suddenly found his tone when he said this was truly too much like Zuo Mo. He instantly
chose to close his mouth. As a Sky Yao, copying other peoples way of talking, especially Zuo
Mo, made him feel he was losing face.
Its just a pity that Shu Long and his group has only cultivated for a short amount of time.
Otherwise hmph hmph so boring!
Pu Yao said to himself.
For the first time, Clear Sky Old Forefather had a serious expression. It had been a scheme of the
other that had caused him to be struck by the formation battle watchtowers. But this black cloud
clearly was some kind of spell or formation. This was true power. To be able to stop the attack of
a jindan xiuzhe, it truly could be called powerful.
It didnt seem too much like a spell. With a ningmai cultivation, it wasnt possible to cast such a
powerful spell.
The only thing he could think of was formations. But a normal sect couldnt possess such a
powerful formation. This group of people probably had mighty origins!
Clear Sky Old Forefathers heart jumped.
He wasnt afraid of this group of ningmai. Even if he had to kill all of them, it would just take
him some more time. What he was worried about was if he killed the young ones, the old one
would come. With the wealth of Clear Sky Sect, they didnt have such a powerful formation. If
an even more powerful expert came, then he would have a terrible ending.
Clear Sky Old Forefather knew how much he was worth. Being a ruler in an out-of-the-way
place like Little Mountain Jie was achievable, but if he was in the larger jies, he would never get
a turn.
However, he turned his thinking around. Since the grievance between the two had already been
set and could not be resolved, the best solution was to kill this entire group and prevent the news
from spreading.
Thinking about this, the viciousness in his eyes grew, and he was filled with murderous intent.
He had spent great amount of time on [Clear Sky Sword Scripture]. Other than this flying sword,
he had nothing else on his body. He reached out with his finger, and a sword energy multiple
zhang thick shot down!

The sword energy seemed to collide with the black cloud when it suddenly turned to countless
tiny sword energies that nimbly went around the black cloud and smashed on the ling shield of
Golden Crow City.
Clang!
The countless sword energies were like countless transparent snakes that hit the ling shield at the
same exact moment. When the sound of the collisions gathered together, it was one sound that
entered everyones ears.
The ling shield of Golden Crow City shook fiercely. Zuo Mos expression changed slightly. He
controlled all of Golden Crow City, and he was aware just how strong this attack had been.
If something like this came a few more times, the ling shield of Golden Crow City would
collapse!
He bit his lips tightly. Xiuzhe at jindan were too outrageously powerful!
What was the grade of this old farts flying sword?
Countless thoughts flashed through his mind. At this point, there was no time to think, they could
only bear it. Clear Sky Old Forefather flew in the sky and didnt land at all. He was too far away
and so they couldnt use any other moves.
His mind suddenly moved. Pointing above his head, he shouted at Shu Long, Can you change
that to a different shape and cover the ling shield?
Shu Long grimaced and didnt dare to speak. The Crow Fiend Mo Kill Formation was at its limit,
the black cloud slowly started to land. In the end, it landed on the ling shield. Following that, it
started to fall against the ling shield. After a while, it completely covered the ling shield.
Everyone felt the sky darken and the city was in darkness.

Clear Sky Old Forefather saw this and was overjoyed. This way, didnt they trap themselves
inside? The black cloud might increase the defenses of the ling shield, but they had block their
own sight.
Even he couldnt see what was inside the black cloud. He didnt believe the other could see.
Idiotic!
However, this was the difference in strength. The difference between the two sides was too great.
The murderous intent in Clear Sky Old Forefathers eyes reached a peak. How could he miss
such a good opportunity?
He didnt seem to move but suddenly disappeared from his spot and appeared dozens of zhang
above Golden Crow City!
Looking at Golden Crow City under his feet that was wrapped in the black cloud, a cruel smile
was on his lips.
All of you should die!
He raised his palm. A flying sword as blue as the sky appeared at the center of his palm and
floated silently. He gently pushed up. The flying sword turned to a blue light, flew into the sky
and disappeared.
Suddenly, a bright dot of light appeared in an extremely distant place far above his head!
A smug expression came onto his face. How long has it been since he used this move? Too long!
His famed killing move appearing again. It really was emotional!
No one could stop this killing move, no one ever had!

Golden Crow City was soon to disappear, to be forcefully erased from Sky Star Peak. He felt a
slight bit of regret. Truthfully, he liked this little city a lot.
It was a truly enchanting little city!
But everything would be destroyed!
The smile on his face suddenly froze.
He saw the mountain peaks across from him suddenly shake vigorously. Large patches of earth
shifted in rock slides and revealed the granite underneath.
What was this
His body was suddenly restrained by an enormous force. The air in the surroundings seemed to
become solid and heavy. He tried to move his body. Each movement became extremely difficult.
He felt as though he had landed in an enormous spider web.
Trap!
His head rang and blanked.
Immediately after, large burst of lava sprouted out of the earth and slowly advanced along the
hills.
He saw a soul-shaking scene underneath his feet. There seemed to be an invisible red pen
drawing out vivid red lines among the mountains. These lines were determined in their advance
as they created a strange picture.
Clear Sky Old Forefather felt there were countless strong and heavy chains tying him tightly so
he couldnt move.
At this time, the black cloud outside Golden Crow City had dissipated. The damned person flew
into the sky.

Zuo Mo was very proud inside. Did you think ge couldnt see? Ge has Ling Eye, understand?
But he knew this wasnt the time to celebrate. His hand flipping, a Sonic Lightning Walnut
covered in golden patterns appeared on his palm!
Sonic Lightning Walnut!
Clear Sky Old Forefather saw the Sonic Lightning Walnut in Zuo Mos hands. His expression
changed dramatically.
Zuo Mo didnt waste words, raising his hand and smashing it at Clear Sky Old Forefather!
Boom!
When the Sonic Lightning Walnut left Zuo Mos palm, it turned to a golden ball of flame the size
of his face surrounded by countless silver electrical energies. The sound of the explosions
continued, and was extremely shocking!
Clear Sky Old Forefathers eyeballs almost fell out. This guy actually used Sonic Lightning
Walnuts to make one-use talismans?
Was this guy crazy?
Sonic Lightning Walnuts were fourth-grade materials
He suddenly reacted, and his soul almost left his body! Damn it! This was a fourth-grade
material!
He didnt have the attention to spare for preparing his killing move. The flying sword turned to a
stream of light and shot at the Sonic Lightning Walnut flying at Clear Sky Old Forefather.
Before he could rejoice, he saw another Sonic Lightning Walnut in Zuo Mos hands. The surface
was covered with golden patterns, just like the previous one!

Clear Sky Old Forefather instantly turned white!


He couldnt spare the energy for anything else. He furiously channeled his ling power to break
from his restraints.
All the ling power inside his body was used. His figure started to move bit by bit. After a while,
the speed increased greatly.
Seeing the situation, Zuo Mo knew this was the most important moment. Disregarding the pain
in his heart, he threw and then another walnut appeared in his hand
In one go, he threw out more than ten Sonic Lightning Walnuts!
The golden balls of fire carried a savage presence as they headed for Clear Sky Old Forefather
who was moving at turtle speed.
The sky filled with the sound of explosions like countless waves of lightning rolling past and
caused the mountains to shake.
Clear Sky Old Forefathers complexion could not be described by white any longer. He didnt
have the bravery. He had never seen someone forge Sonic Lightning Walnuts into one-use
talismans.
How wealthy was that person that he dared to do so?
Boom!
Clear Sky Old Forefathers flying sword accurately struck a Sonic Lightning Walnut and
exploded!
Zuo Mo felt light explode in his vision. The light was so blinding that only golden light remained
in his eyes and he was unable to see anything else.
Boom boom boom!
Zuo Mos eyes could only see golden light, so bright that he was blind. He felt an enormous
beast had charged at him, and his entire body was thrown into the air.
He was dumbstruck.
Translator Ramblings: Earthquake! Drop, cover and hold!
For those of you asking why Zuo Mo was so chatty, he wanted the guy enraged and closer to the
city.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred Sacrifice
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Three Hundred Sacrifice
Zuo Mo barely managed to steady himself. It was the female xiu that reached out a hand to catch
him.
Blood was streaming out of his ears and nose. His face was white, the ling armor and clothes all
torn to pieces. The power from the explosions of more than ten Sonic Lightning Walnuts was far
outside of his imagination.
Nothing was left at Clear Sky Old Forefathers position.
Thinking about that terrifying power, and the strength that could topple mountains and flip the
seas, Zuo Mos calves shook. In a flash, he thought about the first time he had used a yin fire
bead.
Ge had been careless!

The yin beads he had made in the past were second-grade. The Stalagmite fire was also a secondgrade fire but the power of the yin fire bead forged was already great. How could the power of
something forged through Sonic Lightning Walnuts and Golden Crow Fire be weak? They were
all fourth-grade!
The Golden Thread Lightning Walnut forged from two types of fourth-grade materials using the
yin fire bead forging method was unparalleled in its power!
If he had been even the slightest bit closer, he wouldve
He felt fear but since they finally killed Clear Sky Old Forefather, he hadnt risked his life for
nothing.
Suddenly, a feeling of danger came into his heart. He reflexively raised his head.
An enormous shadow carrying a threatening presence dived down at astounding speed from the
sky above his head!
Clear Sky Old Forefather hadnt died! Zuo Mos expression changed dramatically.
Go die!
A shout filled with fury and murderous intent exploded above his head.
Clear Sky Old Forefathers clothing and ling armor and completely broken apart. His hair loose,
there was blood flowing out of the corner of his mouth, and his left arm had disappeared. The
power of the Sonic Lightning Walnuts had almost destroyed his soul. Under such an emergency,
he had used a secret technique at a cost of three-tenths of his cultivation, and had barely managed
to escape.
But even so, his losses were painful. His left arm had been broken and his flying sword had been
destroyed. His most painful loss was the loss of three-tenths of his cultivation. This meant that
his cultivation could collapse at any moment and return back to the stage of ningmai. How could
he not be furious?
The loss of cultivation was every xiuzhes greatest fear!
Today, he definitely had to cut these people into pieces!
There was only this one thought in Clear Sky Old Forefathers mind. [Clear Sky Sword
Scripture] was pushed to its limits.
The sky above Golden Crow City seemed to solidify. In an instant, the sky seemed to become a
vast piece of transparent crystal. Clouds, dust, sunlight, everything was solidified in that
moment, motionless and lifeless.
Sunlight could not pass through the solidified sky. It created an enormous shadow that covered
all of Golden Crow City.
The silent killing essence caused everyone to feel terror.
Ping!
The clear sound of crystal breaking. The solidified crystal-like sky suddenly became covered in a
web of cracks. The cracks grew at a rapid rate as though there was an invisible hammer
continuously striking this piece of crystal sky.
Shu Long was stunned. The road they walked was the one of killing essence, and they were most
sensitive to killing essence. At this time, they could not attend to anything else. He shouted,
Kill!
The hearts of everyone in Guard Camp shook, and they shouted simultaneously, Kill!
The black cloud rose and turned to a black python several dozen zhang long and several zhang
thick. With a hiss, it viciously leapt towards Clear Sky Old Forefather who was above Zuo Mos
head.
Clear Sky Old Forefather was not alarmed at all. With a cold laugh, he pointed with a finger!

Whoosh. The crystal sky covered in cracks above his head turned to large patches of transparent
fragments that spun as they turned to a sword essence twister that dove at the black python.
[Clear Sky Sword Scripture Shattering Sky]!
Boom!
The two enormous entities collided without finesse and created an earth-shaking sound.
The pitiful Zuo Mo was thrown up again by the wave of air.
Damn it!
Several Sky sword essence pieces left bloody marks on his body. He disregarded the pain, and
looked towards the battlefield. He couldnt help but inhale sharply.
Countless crystal-like fragments of sword essence floated in front of Clear Sky Old Forefather.
He was bleeding from his mouth and nose. In the collision against the black python, he hadnt
escaped unscathed, but his gaze became even more vicious.
When Zuo Mo met Clear Sky Old Forefathers gaze, his heart instantly shook. The other was
going all out!
Shu Longs figure shook, and he gave a muffled grunt, his face pale. The other camp guards
staggered and collapsed as though they were drunk.
Pu Yaos anger inside the necklace could not be restrained. Trash! You group of trash! One
jindan makes all of you this sorry-looking, how can you live in the future? I, the honored Sky
Yao, cannot have such trash under my command
A grimace came onto Shu Longs face. They had just made a breakthrough. They needed a
period of time to acclimate themselves with their bodies. Their loss this time really hadnt come
at a good time!
His eyes suddenly widened, and he had a joyous expression.
At some unknown time, the female xiu appeared behind Clear Sky Old Forefather, and pointed!
There was a chance!
Everyone had ecstatic expressions. They had all seen with their own eyes before how powerful
the female xiu was. The female xiu was definitely the strongest person in all of Golden Crow
City.
She finally acted!
For some unknown reason, Zuo Mos heart suddenly sank. The purple light in the female xius
eyes were as bright as two balls of purple fire. It was the first time he had seen the purple light in
her eyes be so bright.
Hahahaha! All of you, die!
Clear Sky Old Forefather laughed madly. The shattered crystal sky above his head suddenly
collapsed. Countless transparent sword essence fragments flowed down like an avalanche.
Countless fragments passed through Clear Sky Old Forefathers body in burst of blood. Clear
Sky Old Forefather did not feel the pain and continued to laugh!
Zuo Mos head rang.
A suicidal attack! He wanted them to perish together!
The area of the sky multiple mu large above Golden Crow City had completely collapsed.
Countless, vast, and ethereal sword essence fragments with an unstoppable presence fell from the
sky.
Countless sword essences penetrated Clear Sky Old Forefathers body. They turned from
glowing and transparent to becoming blood stained glass!
The vast and ethereal sword essence suddenly had a presence that was determined and tragic!
With the sky as the sword, using the body as the guide

[Blood Sky]!

Everyones face became pale. It was a terrifying matter if a jindan xiuhe decided to take
everyone to the gates of hell with him.
Watching from afar, Rong Weis expression changed. There was only one thought in her mind,
Golden Crow City was finished!
The large male and the middle-aged person changed expressions at the same time. A thought
simultaneously flashed through their minds, Golden Crow city was finished!
There was no difficulty for a jindan xiuzhe to use a secret technique to release an attack with all
their power without regard for the consequences. As a result, fights between jindan were more
cautious. If one side was pushed to the precipice, their last attack before death was extremely
terrifying. Even Rong Wei and the others had never seen a jindan expert go all out.
Rong Wei was stunned. She was very knowledgeable but the power of Clear Sky Old Forefather
was far beyond of her predictions. Even among Sky Water Jies jindan, Clear Sky Old
Forefathers power would definitely rank among the top three. At this time, she suddenly
understood why the Marquis was so wary of Clear Sky Old Forefather.
For some reason, she sighed inside.
They admired Golden Crow City for pushing a jindan to the point they had to fight using their
life.
It was just a pity
The entire sky above Golden Crow City was pulled in. All of the sword essence had completely
lost control!
As Clear Sky Old Forefather laughed crazily, his entire person exploded into a ball of bloody
mist and was completely sucked into the uncontrolled sword essences.
An area fifty li in radius around Golden Crow City was completely covered. What made people
feel hopeless was that any movement method would be ineffective in leaving the area covered by
the sword essence. They couldnt even escape!
Unless they also were jindan and had high grade movement methods could they escape this
calamity.

The sky covered everything with the blood-colored sword essence and was unavoidable!
Lava flowed among the seven mountain peaks. Golden Crow City seemed to become hell!
Damn it!
Hopelessness floated on Zuo Mos face.
Suddenly, his sighed darkened, and a figure appeared in front of him.
It was her!
The female xiu was covered in bloody marks. Blood had soaked through many parts of her
clothing. That pair of perfect bare feet was even more heart-moving in the patch of blood. Some
time ago, the mask on her face had been destroyed and revealed her hideous face.
You Zuo Mo first stilled. When he wanted to speak, the female xiu suddenly flew over
his head.

Her arms were open like a big bird, her face raised, and her entire body consumed in the purple
flame. She was like a moth flying towards the fire, heading straight for the blood-colored sword
tide that was crashing down.
The purple fire was burning so high they could not make out her figure.
For an unknown reason, Zuo Mos chest suddenly felt extreme pain. His tears uncontrollably
flooded out, large teardrops falling down his face.
What was going on
Who are you
The tears blurred his vision, his chest was in great pain as though something was going to erupt.
His ears could only hear the howls of the sword essence covering the sky above his head that had
formed a flood and had an appearance of an apocalyptic disaster.
Pain!
Time suddenly became extremely slow. The extreme pain at his chest was so clear at this
moment like a thread of flame burning constantly.
Under that sword essence wave, the figure covered in the purple flame was as minuscule as dust.
So painful!
The pain burned every one of his nerves. He couldnt suppress it any longer, using all of his
strength to shout, Arrrrrrrrgh!
The enormous pain was like a tide, coming in brutally and sweeping his entire body.
He didnt seem to detect that the bright red lava flowing down the mountains seemed to be pulled
up by an invisible hand. In the blink of an eye, the lava wrapped around his legs. The damaged
great formation on the ground suddenly lit up with a red light. The damaged formation actually
managed to still activate!
The golden light of Golden Crow City exploded. The lightning from the formation battle
watchtowers exploded. The xiuzhe inside discovered to their shock that the formation battle
watchtowers were completely out of their control!
Lava, golden light, and hard lightning headed furiously towards Zuo Mo!
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
Zuo Mo angrily yelled. His entire body was covered in the lava, hard lightning and golden light
were flashing occasionally between the lava.
The abnormal change disturbed everyone!
Shu Longs expression changed. Just as he thought to move, he heard the daren inside the
necklace shout, Dont disturb him!
He stilled and then had a joyous expression.
Within the lava, Zuo Mo felt his consciousness and fleshly body had been separated. He could
clearly feel the enormous pain in his body, but at this time, he was like a spectator watching over
it all.
He could see the five element glass bead shaking violently inside his body
He saw the figure above his head that was completely enveloped in the purple fire.
She was looking at him.
At this point, Zuo Mo could see through the purple fire and the lava without any effort. He could
see very clearly.
He saw a pair of clear eyes filled with joyful surprise and longing.
Translator Ramblings: So many lil cliff(ies) running around recently.

For the second time, Zuo Mo makes a bomb and then screws up with it. Last time, he just
defused it, this time, he gets wounded in the explosion.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and One Desperate Situation
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Three Hundred and One Desperate Situation
Under the colossal wave of sword energies, the female xiu enveloped in purple flames looked at
Zuo Mo deeply. Zuo Mo had a disquieting feeling that time was pulled extremely long in this
moment.
Their gazes met.
The female xiu moved away her eyes, and raised her face again to looked at the sword energies
falling down towards her.
Pia pia pia!
Bursts of blood exploded out from her body. She disregarded them. The blood sprayed out and
landed in the purple fire which was like a blood-sucking monster that greedily absorbed the fresh
blood. The purple fire grew, snapping and crackling.
The hands covered in fresh blood slowly rose up over her head. She took a position as if she was
pushing upwards.
The purple fire around her quickly streamed towards her upright arms.
It was just a simple movement, but it made anyone watching feel it was determined and grim.
Her arms pushed upwards.
Two streams of purple fire flowed from her arms and connected end to end. It formed a purple
disk of fire about ten zhang large. All the fire on the female xius body flowed into the purple fire
disk without a drop remaining.
The purple fire disk spun eerily over her head.
Zuo Mo looked on dazedly. The female xiu who didnt have any trace of purple fire left on her,
no longer bleeding from her wounds, but her torn clothes had already become soaked in blood.
Only that pair of bare feet was white and left untouched.
What shocked him even more was that he could not feel any hint of a presence from the female
xiu!
She seemed to have suddenly disappeared, no, like she had died.
Looking coldly from the side, Zuo Mos emotions suddenly rippled violently.
His howls were like that of a wild beast being burned. Lava, hard lightning, and golden light
furiously burrowed into his body destructively as they headed for the deepest reaches of his
body.
The ripple of his emotions was like pouring oil onto the fire. His situation became even more
terrible. Any place that was slightly weak was completely burned up when the golden light, hard
lightning, and lava passed.
Even the muscles and bones that had been sufficiently tempered before were wavering under
such a brutal baptism.
But at this moment, all of Zuo Mos attention was attracted by the female xiu.

A stream of tears continuously flowed from his eyes, yet he did not detect it. The five element
glass bead in his chest jumped rhythmically like a heart, as though something was going to break
through.
She definitely had more than a common connection to him!
At this point, Zuo Mo was certain of this point. The enchanting purple fire disk spun above the
female xius head. A power that made people feel trepidation slowly spread.
Who are you
Zuo Mos emotional upheaval became even more violent. He wanted to ask her this question, but
his body was completely out of his control. No matter how he tried, he could not reclaim control
of his own body.
The collapsing sword essence came even closer. Zuo Mos panic increased.
Damn it!
Why why couldnt he control his own body
His heart had a fierce impulse. He wanted to control his own body. He wanted to ask her why. He
didnt want her shield him from the front. He
Damn it!
Zuo Mo felt there was a ball of fire burning in his chest. He had never had an impulse that was as
strong as this one! He knew if he took control of his body at this moment, his soul would have to
endure the flames.
But he wanted
Zuo Mos body shook violently. His screams became even more furious!
to ask her
His eyes were bright red and bloodshot. The tendons in his forehead had bulged out. The blood
vessels in his body were like earthworms.
The sword essence sped increasingly near the female xiu and was less than ten zhang from the
purple fire disk.
The female xiu suddenly lowered her head to look at him.
Something seemed to explode in Zuo Mos mind. Boom! His mind blanked. All of the ling
power, consciousness, every drop of power contained in every bit of his muscles suddenly
exploded!
His body suddenly created an extremely strong attraction. The lava, hard lightning, and golden
light that had been rampaging inside his body were sucked in.
A familiar yet unfamiliar voice echoed.
Dont forget
Even in death, you cannot forget
Layering and in waves like thunder.
In the sky, the colossal sword essence heavily collided on the purple fire disk.
Pew pew pew!
When a sword energy landed inside the purple fire disk, it was like pouring water into hot oil.
Purple wisps of flame spat forth. The sword energies were relentless like a flood as they attacked
the purple fire disk.
The arms of the female xiu suddenly became weighted, and her body shook slightly.
Zuo Mo was like a wild beast at deaths door as he furiously howled.
The body of the female xiu shook. Zuo Mos body shook at the same time. He was like an
enraged wild beast. Why!

His body suddenly started to tremble. An expression of pain came onto his face. His voice
uncontrollably became smaller. Why
Even if his consciousness had been cultivated, but the pain from his soul being burned would not
decrease due to that. The different kinds of forces inside his body seesawed. Enormous pain
came from the burning of his soul. He felt like a shrimp being boiled. Every part of his body was
trembling.
He wanted to ask her why
The arms of the female xiu were slowly pushed down. An astounding force passed from the
purple fire disk.
He gritted his teeth. A stream of fresh blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.
He wanted to ask her why
Zuo Mos entire body shook fiercely but he didnt shout this time. He had a deathly stare as he
bit down on his teeth, a stream of fresh blood coming out of the corner of his mouth.
Booooooooom!
The flames of the purple fire disk frantically consumed, but there were too many sword energies
that forcibly suppressed the flames of the purple fire disk. They continuously pushed down on
the purple fire disk.
The female xiu shook even harder. With a muffled grunt, her body suddenly sank down.
He wanted to ask her why
Below the female xiu, Zuo Mo raised his head with difficulty. His eyes were entirely red and
filled with blood. An amazing change was happening to his body. The silver hard lightning swam
across the surface of his body like countless silver snakes. The golden light furiously burrowed
into his bones and the threads of pure earth fire inside the crimson lava crawled into his channels.
Having lost their targets, the ling and spiritual power slowly steadied.
Boom!
The figure of the female xiu above him sank again.
The golden light of the ling shield of Golden Crow City was burning. When the sky full of sword
energies smashed onto it, the golden ling shield rippled.
Everyone knew this was the most crucial time, and put all of their power into fighting.
Shu Long led the Guard Camp and activated the Crow Fiend Mo Killing Formation again. The
battle formations of Vermillion Bird Camp were primary offensive. Defense was not one of their
talents. The only thing they could do was to activate some of the simpler defensive formations,
and contribute as much as they could.
Lil Pagoda spun into a five colored after-image. The Skyring Moon Chime Formation was
pressed to its limits.
The xiuzhe of the Eastern and Western Camps seemed to have gone insane as they furiously
switched out the jingshi. Everyone knew that if the ling shield broke, no one could escape the
calamity.
At this time, everyone directly experienced just how strong the female xiu was. With just her
own power, she could stop such a terrifying sword essence. It really was hard to imagine. They
had to rely on the big formation of Golden Crow City, and were still wavering when they used all
their power. The ling shield could break at any time.
Everyones face was filled with hopelessness.
The sword essence coming down seemed to be endless and unstoppable. A nearby mountain peak
was brutally destroyed, only leaving behind the bottom half. If they were not personally
experiencing it, no one could imagine that sword essence could reach such a terrifying level.

Were their lives really going to be lost here today?


This thought uncontrollably flashed across everyones mind.
Gongsun Cha called over Xie Shan, Ma Fan, and a few others. He said in a low voice, We
probably cant hold out for much longer. Later when the citys ling shield breaks, you guys take
Boss and break through.
Everyones face was sorrowful. Each of them tightly bit their lips and didnt speak.
Shu Longs nose and mouth bled blood. He bit down on his teeth and continued to channel the
Crow Fiend Mo Kill Formation. Almost everyone in Guard Camp were bleeding from their nose
and mouth.
Boom!
The enormous power surpassed the limits that the Crow Fiend Mo Kill Formation could tolerate.
Shu Long felt as though someone hammered him hard. His entire body was thrown into the air.
The camp guards behind him were also thrown up.
The Crow Fiend Mo Kill Formation was broken!
Everyones expression changed. Without the Crow Fiend Mo Kill Formation, the ling shield of
Golden Crow City could not last for long.
Just as everyone felt it was hopeless, someone suddenly said in a trembling voice, Boss
Boss?
Many people instinctively moved their gaze. Even if they would die here today, it wasnt a bad
idea if Boss could escape. Many people hoped the female xiu could take Boss and escape this
place.
They were filled with terror and hopelessness, but they were not regretful. With Boss, they had a
loud and great run. Compared to the lifeless days they had lived before, it was the difference
between the earth and the sky! From the bottom of their hearts, they hoped that Boss could live!
So when someone exclaimed, many people couldnt resist moving their eyes.
Zuo Mos body was covered in red, gold, and silver. He was standing upright like a spear.
His features were still twisted, but it gave people a completely different feeling. He raised his
head and looked at the female xiu.
For some unknown reason, a thread of hope rose in everyones hearts at the same time.
Faster faster
Panic flashed through Zuo Mos eyes. The rampaging forces inside his body had gradually
stabilized. His body had gradually returned to his control. He seemed to have entered an
unfamiliar body and slowly recovered his strength.
It wasnt a long process, but the timing really made him panic!
Countless bits of hard lightning swam across the surface of his body, a golden liquid flowed in
his bones, the channels were filled with pure and crimson earth fire, his body that had been
tempered again
His body had undergone another breakthrough, but at this time, there was no joy in him. He
looked with panic at the figure above him.
Without the purple fire, the female xiu looked as weak as a dry leaf in the wind.
Boom!
The female xius figure sank again, her long hair flying.
Faster!
Zuo Mos heart suddenly ached.
Boom!

The female xiu sank once more. Sparks flew off the purple fire disk and it showed signs of
collapsing.
Motherf***ing faster!
Zuo Mos eyes suddenly turned red.
Boooooooom!
The female xiu was like a nail that was being hammered down, and unable to stop.
Booooooooooooom!
The purple fire disk finally could not stand it anymore. It turned to countless wisps of purple fire
and disappeared into the air.
The female xiu seemed to be heavily struck. Her eyes unfocused, her body dropped down at an
even more rapid rate!
Zuo Mos mind exploded, his body exploded and suddenly became open. All of his strength
suddenly poured into his body like water.
He disappeared from his spot.
In the air, his figure was arched. His back towards the sky, the female xiu was shielded against
his chest.
His right hand held a handful of Golden Thread Lightning Walnuts. Like he was crazy, he threw
them viciously at the howling sword essence!
Go away!
Translator Ramblings: Zuo Mo really has an affinity for fire. His Stalagmite fire, the inky black
fire, the earth fire on Desolate Wood Reef, the Golden Crow Fire and now more lava fire.
So imagine the sky shattering like glass and raining down at you its a meteor shower.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Two A New Beginning
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Three Hundred and Two A New Beginning
Booooooom!
More than ten Sonic Lightning Walnut exploded at the same time!
A blinding and scorching light passed through his back.
Zuo Mo felt his back was heavily struck. His throat turned sweet and then he spat out blood.
Before he had the time to respond, like a meteorite falling from the sky, he and the female xiu
smashed heavily into the dirt.
Ping!
The ground was really hard!
That was the last thought before Zuo Mo fainted.

Ma Fan looked at the half-collapsed city walls. Thinking about the scene from two days ago, he
still felt fear. The big formation inside Golden Crow City had been completely damaged, and
almost all of the formation battle watchtowers were ruined.
Most importantly, Boss had thrown out a huge number of Sonic Lightning Walnuts to save
everybody.

The simultaneous explosion of the Sonic Lightning Walnuts had forcibly cleared out an empty
area twenty mu in diameter.
The mountains around Golden Crow City did not have such good luck and had been bombarded
and left half standing. Not one mountain peak remained whole. There was no untouched land
near Golden Crow City. Everything was in disarray.
In the sky, it was possible to see xiuzhe from Vermillion Bird Camp patrolling everywhere. After
the battle, some xiuzhe had nefarious aims, and wanted to get rich. They were completely
annihilated by the members of Vermillion Bird Camp, who had a whole belly full of frustration.
In the defense of the city, Vermillion Bird Camps utility had been pitifully small. This made
them feel especially irritated.
They had almost all died, and were even unable to take Boss and escape. To the Vermillion Bird
Camp that had been trained through many battle and successfully won, this undoubtedly was a
great humiliation.
No one had expected that, in the end, Boss had saved everyone. Thinking about it now, it still
seemed like a dream.
There was not much joy on Ma Fans face. Boss was still unconscious now. This caused a heavy
cloud to settle on everyones hearts. In this present group, Boss was the true leader. No one could
imagine what they would become if Boss wasnt present.
Maybe this group that had been so difficult to gather together would face a fate of collapse.
Ma Fan chewed on a stalk of green grass as his feet unconsciously kicked pebbles.
Old Fan, Old Fan! His ears suddenly heard Xie Shans joyous voice.
Oh. He turned his face and dazedly responded.
Xie Shan said urgently, Boss woke up!
It was as though Ma Fan was struck by lightning. After a moment, he suddenly reacted, and
asked hurriedly, Boss woke up?
Hee hee, just woke up! It was just my turn to stand guard! Xie Shan said with slight pride.
Thats great! Ma Fan muttered to himself.
Isnt it? This is great
The news that Zuo Mo woke up quickly spread through Golden Crow City. Golden Crow City
rejoiced, the gloom of the past days swept away.

Zuo Mo felt his body hurt all over as though it was being torn apart. He couldnt help but give a
deep groan. Looking at the familiar faces, joy at surviving the calamity washed over his heart.
His expression suddenly changed and asked Gongsun Cha, Wheres the female xiu?
Gongsun Chas expression became strange.
How is she? Zuo Mo was very alarmed.
Even though he did not know the actual situation but there definitely was a great connection
between him and the female xiu. The scene of the female xiu sacrificing herself to save him, and
that pair of eyes filled with emotion flashed in front of his eyes.
Who are you
Zuo Mo could find the answer to many of the problems haunting him on her body.
She could not die!
Seeing Zuo Mos panic, Gongsun Cha did not joke and revealed, Come and youll understand.
When Zuo Mo saw the female xiu, he was dumbstruck.

The female xiu silently sat in the corner of the room, and didnt seem to notice the existence of
the two of them.
Her, her cultivation Zuo Mo asked in a trembling voice.
Gongsun Cha shook his head. She woke up before you did, but for some reason, her cultivation
disappeared.
Zuo Mos heart suddenly sank. He silently walked in front of the female xiu. When he saw the
female xius empty eyes, his heart couldnt help but shake, and his nose felt sore.
That pair of clear and joyous eyes
She sat silently. When Zuo Mo walked in front of her, she did not seem to detect it. Zuo Mo
reached out and waved a hand in front of her. She still did not respond.
Inspect her body, Pu Yaos voice suddenly sounded. He was quite stern.
Zuo Mo tightly pressed together his lips, reached out a hand and placed it on her body.
She was motionless like a wooden puppet.
Zuo Mos expression changed.
The channels inside her body had all broke, the strange purple power had disappeared to leave
behind an extremely minuscule thread of life as though it was a candle flickering in the wind,
that could be extinguished at any time.
He couldnt even feel her soul.
Why was it like this?
Zuo Mos mind rang and blanked.
After a long time, he refocused. Looking at the female xius hideous and wooden face, especially
when his gaze landed on the empty pupils, a certain chord in his heart was gently plucked.
The confused gaze suddenly became determined.
He entered the sea of consciousness and looked at Pu Yao. Pu Yao glanced at him and said, I
know what you want to ask. Truthfully, its very difficult.
Pu Yaos voice was deep and solemn without any of the mockery it usually held.
Zuo Mos expression was serious. Tell me.
Pu Yao did not raise any conditions. He looked at Zuo Mo, and threw a ball of light with
formation scripts floating on the surface. He said, This is [Adversity Overcoming Scripture] . I
got it from a dhyana xiu. Maybe it can be of use.
Zuo Mos mind jumped and he hurriedly took the light ball.
Dont be happy prematurely. This scripture can only support this thread of life remaining in her
body. Pu Yao said heavily, If you want to save her, the best method is to get a Water Cloud
Embryo.
Water Cloud Embryo? Zuo Mo asked curiously. He hadnt ever heard this name before.
En, Water Cloud Embryo can nurture souls, and is the best for soul injuries.
Soul injuries?
En, her secret technique is very strange. It burns the soul to create great power. Pu Yaos
expression was grave. It is the first time I have seen such a strange secret skill. Her origins, Im
afraid, are not simple.
When he finished, Pu Yao looked at Zuo Mo. He felt somewhat strange inside. Zuo Mo probably
wasnt simple himself since he had a connection with such a complex female xiu. However, he
had never seen uncommon qualities in Zuo Mo.
Pu Yao gathered his thoughts and continued, She should have definitely died this time, but
fortunately, she had left a soul-thought inside your body
Zuo Mos boy shock and he interrupted, She has a soul-thought inside my body?

Her soul-thought is inside that five element glass bead in your body. Pu Yao secretly celebrated
that he had not crushed that bead [1]. Otherwise, it would be very troublesome now.
Five element glass bead Zuo Mo murmured to himself.
When your cultivation reaches a certain level, you can see some of the mysteries inside, Pu
Yao said, This five element glass bead is a very rare treasure.
Zuo Mos hand unconsciously balled into a fist.
He was suddenly filled with motivation.
For a long time, he had lacked a clear goal, including his time at Wu Kong Mountain. Long days
of low-level living had caused his expectations of life to be very low. When his most basic needs
were fulfilled, he had been lost.
The unexpected encounter between him and the female xiu now seemed like fate.
He knew the female xiu definitely was very important to him!
How important would the connection be t that the other would place a soul-thought inside his
body? He could not think of it, but he knew that no one other than the female xiu could do this.
Just this was enough!
Leaving the sea of consciousness, he looked at the female xiu. Her disfigured and wooden face
could not cause any revulsion in him now. Suddenly, he thought of his past zombie-face, and
laughed.
The fate of the zombie and female ghost?
In the future, you will be A Gui.
The female xiu was unmoved.
[Adversity Overcoming Scripture] was extremely cryptic and complex. The main reason was that
Zuo Mo didnt know much about many of the things of dhyana xiu. Pu Yao did not know much
about dhyana xiu either. According to him, he had taken this from the body of a dhyana xiu he
killed.
Luckily, Zuo Mo had Zong Ru who was a much more orthodox dhyana xiu to help him resolve
many of the parts.
Pu Yaos judgment was correct. [Adversity Overcoming Scripture] was able to help A Guis
stabilize the thread of life. Under the Buddha mantra, the deathly presence on A Guis body
dissipated greatly.
Zuo Mo was very encouraged and worked even harder.

After a few days, Gongsun Cha led a female xiu to Zuo Mo.
Zuo Mo looked with puzzlement at Gongsun Cha. Shidi, this is?
This is Miss Rong Wei. Gongsun Cha first made introductions and then said, She hopes to
work with us.
With us? Zuo Mo stilled.
Rong Wei bowed and said, This one is from Sky Water Jies House of the Crow Marquis and
has been ordered to come to Little Mountain Jie to investigate Stars in Daytime. This one asks
Daren for your aid. She then took out a few talismans. A small token of our intentions, please
accept them.
Stars in Daytime?
Zuo Mos heart jumped. Damn it, Stars in Daytime, wasnt that caused by him?

What were the origins of this Crow Marquis House, why were they investigating him? His heart
instantly became wary.
He pretended to be confused and asked, We did see the Stars in Daytime, but what does this
apparition mean? Miss Rong Wei, please teach us.
This one does dare to teach. Rong Wei bowed slightly. The old records say that when Stars in
Daytime appear, there are great yao and great mo healing.
Great yao and great mo? Zuo Mos heart jumped again. He finally understood.
It seemed he needed to be careful in the future. If this appeared a few more times, he would be in
danger.
En, the Marquis believes great yao may have infiltrated Little Mountain Jie, Rong Wei said.
This was the most probable guess. A yao army had appeared in Little Mountain Jie, and now a
great yao, that wasnt too much of a surprise.
But what was there in Little Mountain Jie that made the yao put so much effort and even be
injured?
Zuo Mo secretly released a breath inside. He hurriedly shook his head. Miss Rong is joking. We
arent enough if a yao army comes, much less a great yao. We plan on immediately leaving Little
Mountain Jie to go to Sky Water Jie. Your House resides in Sky Water Jie, and we are unfamiliar
with the area. At that time, please guide us.
Rong Wei was slightly disappointed, but she had expected this. Unless there was a special order,
no one was willing to stay for long in Little Mountain Jie. She had come this time with the
intentions of making acquaintances.
The power of Golden Crow City, even if they entered Sky Water Jie, would definitely be a
significant force.
There were no disadvantages to forming good relationship now.
Before, she had the idea of recruiting Gongsun Cha, but after personally seeing the battle that
day, her thought had instantly disappeared.
This kind of person was not someone she could recruit.
Fortunately, the aim of her visit this time had been realized. She smiled slightly and took out a
jade card to hand to Zuo Mo.
This one still has duties, and cannot accompany everyone. It is very regretful. If you have any
problem, you can take this card to travel to the House of the Crow Marquis. The Marquis would
definitely welcome everyone.
The two sides chatted a bit more before Rong Wei left.
We are going to Sky Water Jie? Gongsun Cha suddenly asked.
[1] Friendly reminder from WanderingGummiOfDoom: During the first few interactions
between Pu and Zuo Mo, Zuo Mo angered Pu to the point Pu was going to kill him. The bead
attempted to intervene and save Zuo Mo, Pu intended to destroy the bead, but the gravestone
stopped him.
Translator ramblings: The battle is over! A bit of an anti-climax since it was so short in this
chapter but since the guy made a suicide attack and got ripped apart by it as well, it might be
strange if he died really slowly. Zuo Mo is still being haunted by the effects of Stars in Daytime.
Remember, all of this started because he didnt want his ling grains to die, which meant he
couldnt make jingshi and would get kicked from the sect.
Zuo Mo is going to have his own reflections on this fight and it will be in the upcoming chapters
so Ill save my ramblings for that until then.

Every so often, I get comments on the initial chapters of the novel which complain about Pu Yao
and how they give up on reading because hes terrible. I hope some of you came back after being
deterred and have read up to here. Others said they miss the early interactions between Pu Yao
and Zuo Mo so I think Fang Xiang has created a character that you can really hate but still like.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Three Leaving Little
Mountain Jie
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Three Hundred and Three Leaving Little Mountain Jie
En, we need to leave this place quickly, Zuo Mo said decisively. Little Mountain Jie isnt a
safe place.
When are we leaving? Gongsun Cha then asked.
Get everyone to pack, then prepare for departure. Let them prepare well. When we pass through
the Clear Sky Sect, there may be a hard battle.
Alright. Gongsun Cha instantly went out to prepare.

Everyone in Golden Crow City started to move. Zuo Mo released all of the Outer Hall captives.
Clear Sky Old Forefather had been killed which was a fatal blow to the Outer Hall xiuzhe. At this
point, no one would be willing to sell their life for Clear Sky Sect.
The battle of Golden Crow City had shaken Little Mountain Jie.
Right now, everyone knew that the sky had changed for Little Mountain Jie
No one was willing to stay in this cage. In the span of a few days, almost all of the remaining
xiuzhe from Little Mountain Jie had gathered outside Golden Crow City.
They looked with awe at this little town of which only remained half standing. Everyone knew
this place held the hope to leave Little Mountain Jie. No one made trouble, they only watched
from a distance. When Vermillion Bird Camps patrols passed, many people bowed of their own
initiative.
From a distance, there was a spectacularly dense patch of xiuzhe outside Golden Crow City.
Will there be trouble? Nian Lu asked worriedly.
Whos afraid? Lei Peng was unconcerned. We can kill as many of these as they come.
Ha, thats true! Pride flashed across Nian Lus face.Before, who could have thought there
would be a day like this? Its worth it even if I die!
Lei Peng rumbled, I dont want to die. Boss still has so much good stuff. Maybe we can
cultivate to jindan in the future.
You really dare to think Nian Lu looked into the distance.
Suddenly the order to gather came from below. The two exchanged a look. They were going to
depart!
The Little Mountain Jie xiuzhe who had been keeping a constant eye on Golden Crow City
shifted.

After a short while, Vermillion Bird Camp was the first to ascend into the air. The Vermillion
Bird Camp of more than seven hundred people was famed in Little Mountain Jie. When
Vermillion Bird Camp collectively flew into the air, many of the people watching from afar
sighed with admiration.
Look! Thats Vermillion Bird Camp! The strongest army of Little Mountain Jie!
Whoa! That presence is really frightening!
I wonder if they are still hiring? Death would be worth it if I could enter such a troop!
Chatter rose among the crowd. People were filled with admiration and awe as they looked at this
powerful troop. No one dared to underestimate them, even if they there were only seven hundred
people.
Vermillion Bird Camp quickly spread out after getting up into the air. They were wary and
cautious.
Following them were the five gigantic slave transporting boats that slowly rose. There were one
thousand black armor camp guards standing on the lead slave transport ship. That was Guard
Camp who became famous in one battle. They were not skilled in flying. The enormous and
steady slave transporting boats were perfect for them. The pressure of one thousand camp guards
standing on the deck gave people was unparalleled.
The appearance of Guard Camp caused a small crescendo of murmuring.
The xiuzhe that had personally seen the heart-shaking battle described the terrifying strength of
Guard Camp to the others.
The ferocious killing energy and the ancient battle armor that they wore, which had long
disappeared into the river of history, became the topics that interested the people the most.
The other for slave transporting boats were used for the Eastern Camp, Western Camp and noncombat xiuzhe. And the last boat was filled with all kinds of materials.
Slave transporting boats were enormous. In Little Mountain Jie, five slave transporting boats
definitely counted as a gigantic fleet. Adding on Vermillion Bird Camp and Guard Camp, this
definitely was the strongest fleet of Little Mountain Jie.

Zuo Mo looked at Golden Crow City below and was filled with emotion.
It just had been a few short days, but Golden Crow City had completely transformed. It was
broken and shattered. Possibly in the future, this place would become ruins of an ancient city.
He raised his head and looked at the sky filled with xiuzhe in a dense cloud that did not end. He
couldnt help but sigh again. After this departure, Little Mountain Jie would become a dead jie
without any people.
Maybe this place would become the frontlines like Bloody Sky Metropolis Jie had previously
been, a paradise of yaomo.
Oh, he really had no standing to sigh. Thinking about Pu Yao in his sea of consciousness, Zuo
Mo grimaced.
However, they could finally leave this place
He looked at A Gui beside him. A Gui was sitting silently. He turned his face and said to
Gongsun Cha, Depart!

The five slave transporting boats slowly started to fly forward. Many people looked back at
Golden Crow City, their eyes filled with reluctance. This little city had given them hope and
sunlight. This little city would become a place they would reminiscence for their entire life.
The vast troop flew towards the jie river towards Sky Water Jie.
Along the way, there was a constant stream of xiuzhe merging with their convoy. The troop
became even larger. Each persons face was filled with excitement and exhilaration. They looked
with awe at the figure standing on the deck of the lead slave transport ship.
There was no light coming from the ling armor, the not-so-broad figure did not have a grand
presence, this normal looking youth that was outrageously young gave them hope and led them
to escape this cage.
Not far from their troop, a troop of yao soldiers watched as they left.
Daren, are we not pursuing them?
No, we are too exhausted.
But
The order from the Council of Elders is to take Little Mountain Jie at the fastest speed possible,
not to do anything else.

Rong Wei entered this convoy along the way.


Personally seeing this scene, she sighed inside. After this hard battle, the master of Golden Crow
City had become the true king of Little Mountain Jie. If he sent down an order right now, there
definitely would be many people willing to sell their life for him. In the remaining xiuzhe of
Little Mountain Jie, there was not another person that could be spoken of in the same terms as
him.
The xiuzhe from Little Mountain Jie had all chosen to leave. Her mission did not have much
meaning then.
She didnt think that she could investigate and find something in Little Mountain Jie with just the
handful of compound guards she had come with. The best choice right now was to leave with the
master of Golden Crow City.
She held a high opinion of the master of Golden Crow City. With the group of people under his
command, the master of Golden Crow City would be invincible wherever he went. From the
battle, she had seen how powerful the master of Golden Crow City was.
It was a profitable matter to give someone friendship when they were in their most difficult
straits.
Good day, City Master! Rong Wei went over and bowed. With a smile, she said, We will be
travelling with you!
Zuo Mo smiled. Miss Rong is too courteous. As he finished, he had his people make room.
Rong Wei was not courteous and stepped onto the slave transporting boat. The compound guards
all held their head and chests high, and shared in the glory.
What does City Master plan to do for the future?
Rong Wei tilted her head and asked.
Well plan each step when we get there. Zuo Mo was very wary of this female xiu that was
investigating Stars in Daytime.
Sky Water Jie isnt a bad place. City Master could consider it, Rong Wei said.

Zuo Mo shook his head. Too dangerous, The yao army can enter Little Mountain Jie at any
time. Sky Water Jie is this close to Little Mountain Jie, it is slightly dangerous.
Rong Wei stilled. Upon further thought, she instantly stopped speaking. The others words were
very reasonable. She considered whether or not she should urge the Marquis to move the House
of the Crow Marquis to a place further way when she returned.
Pu Yao suddenly spoke up inside Zuo Mos mind, Ask her if she has a jie map?
Hearing this, Zuo Mos mind moved. He asked Rong Wei, Speaking of that, this one has
something to request.
Oh, please speak, Rong Wei said cautiously.
This ones jie map was lost, and wants to borrow and copy Miss Rongs jie map, Zuo Mo said
without blushing or an increase in his heartbeat.
Hearing this, Rong Weis heart settled. She said, No problem, but the markings on this ones jie
river are limited, and hope that City Master will not be too disappointed.
Zuo Mo hurriedly gave his thanks, took out a blank jade scroll and copied.
After he finished, he gave the jie map jade scroll back to the other and went back to his cabin
after bidding farewell.
Once he entered the boat cabin, he couldnt wait and took out the jie map to examine.
The jie map was filled with the names of all the jie and the jie rivers connecting them. Zuo Mo
instantly felt his vision broaden. Only today did he discover the general location of Sky Moon
Jie, and Little Mountain Jie.
Sky Moon Jie and Little Mountain Jie were at the corner of the entire jie map.
As expected, it was rural area
He smacked his lips and rubbed his chin as he read intensely, unaware that Pu Yao had also
crowded next to him and was examining the jie map.
Such a small jie map? Pu Yao said with slightly disdain.
Its already a lot. Theres more than three hundred jie labeled on here!
Three hundred jie is a lot? Pu Yao seemed to have heard a great joke. Country bumpkin!
Zuo Mo ignored him. It was the first time he saw a jie map and he was very curious. The labels
on the jie map were very detailed. It even included the specialty products of each jie. He read on
with interest. Around the jie map were large areas of blank space. Those were probably areas that
had never been mapped before.
He quickly discovered that there was no information on Water Cloud Embryos on the jie map.
Pu, which jie produces Water Cloud Embryos?
I dont know, Pu Yao said irritably, Im not familiar with your xiuzhe territories.
Arent you a Sky yao? You dont even know this. Zuo Mo egged him on.
Pu Yao tilted his head and smirked coldly. I know of a place, but it is in a yao jie, you dare to
go?
Zuo Mo instantly was speechless. It seemed he had to do a search when he got to Sky Water Jie.
When the vast troop reached Clear Sky Sects base, they found it was completely empty. Zuo
Mo, who had been expecting another hard battle, was very surprised.
When they found out the Clear Sky Sect disciples had all run away, cheers rang out from the
troop. Zuo Mo did not doubt that if any Clear Sky Sect disciples identity was revealed, and they
encountered any xiuzhe that escaped from Little Mountain JIe, they would die a terrible death.
Every single one of the surviving xiuzhe from Little Mountain Jie hated Clear Sky Sect to the
bone.

What Zuo Mo felt was a pity was everything good in Clear Sky Sect had been cleaned out. He
didnt stop there, followed the jie river, and flew towards Sky Water Jie.
When they arrived at the airspace above the jie river, many of the xiuzhes tears uncontrollably
flowed.
They finally believed that they were going to leave this hell-like cage!
They could finally return to the life they had been familiar with before. This made everyone
excited.
Cheers, sobs, venting roars
The sky above the jie river was very busy.
Zuo Mo wasnt very excited. He looked at A Gui sitting silently beside him, his gaze determined.
The other end of the jie river was just a new beginning.
Translator Ramblings: Dont worry, Pu Yao hasnt forgotten the golden core yet. It will come up.
Zuo Mo getting the jie map is like those players who just left behind the beginner level. Sky
Moon Jie was the tutorial, Little Mountain Jie the beginner village, and now we are off to the
real world.
The yao army juuuuuuuuuuust allows Zuo Mo to slip through, again. Its a string of
coincidences. They are too tired after traveling at full speed and Zuo Mos convoy is too
numerous. Last time, it was that they adhered to the mission and were merciful so they did not to
go after innocents. Im not sure what is plot armor if this isnt.
As for A Guis name, the guywhoshere had a good answer: Ah () is a prefix for endearment,
like you would use Xiao () to say little *name*. Gui () is ghost, hence why he previously
called her ghost.
World of Cultivation Chapter Three Hundred and Four Great Day Mo Physique

This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.

Chapter Three Hundred and Four Great Day Mo Physique


The jie rivers were hard to cross. Every jie river was very lengthy.
Inside the cabin, Zuo Mo was focused on cultivation.
Golden core! My golden core! Once Pu Yao spoke of the jindan, he started to become irritable.
Fought a jindan and almost lost your little life, and you didnt get me the golden core!
Zuo Mo was slightly embarrassed. Before, he had promised to give a jindan to Pu Yao but that
was unfulfilled. Thinking about it now, jindan were not as terrifying as he imagined. As long as
he had the right method, it was possible to defeat a jindan.
After careful thought, the strongest quality of a jindan was their speed. This caused jindan to
have the absolute advantage when facing ningmai xiuzhe. For a powerful jindan to kill with a
strike was not uncommon, but it was not possible for one strike to kill ten ningmai.

In comparison, a jindans defensive advantage was the least eye-catching .Even though the
sword energies of a single ningmai could not seriously wound them, but if dozens of sword
energies struck at the same time, even a jindan could not bear it.
What was most scary was if the jindan decided to kill everyone at the expense of their life. If a
jindan decided to go all out, the power they could release was multiple times what it was
normally.
Experience was the most valuable.
With the experience from last time, if he had to fight with Clear Sky Old Forefather again, he
even had the confidence to kill Clear Sky Old Forefather with just Vermillion Bird Camp.
Facing Pu Yaos mockery and scorn, he could only grimace inside. The reason the battle against
Clear Sky Old Forefather had been so difficult was because he had been frightened by the
connotations of a jindan xiuzhe. Now he knew that being on the defense would cause him to
become even more reactive when facing a jindan xiuzhe.
Pu Yao clearly knew this. At this point, his wailing was just to satisfy his mouth.
Hearing Pu Yao natter at his ears, Zuo Mo really could not bear it any longer. He stopped his
cultivation. Alright, alright! Ill make it up to you! He then muttered, An honored Sky Yao is
actually hmph hmph
Pu Yao pretended not to hear. After a while, he could resist tempting Zuo Mo, Actually, jindan
are very easy to kill. You didnt have the abilities before but it is different now. Look, you have
so many people under your command, and you also made a breakthrough
Breakthrough? Zuo Mos mind jumped. Lets talk more about this.
Its strange now that you speak of it. Your talent in the consciousness and ling power doesnt
seem outstanding, but you are abnormally fast in cultivating the mo skills. It really is weird. Pu
Yao was slightly discontent, but still said, You still remember your mo physique?
Of course, Jade Metal Head. Ranked fifth in the captain stage, Zuo Mo answered.
Exactly. At the beginning, I assumed you would go to Star and Moon Wheel. But with such
coincidences, you transformed into another kind of mo physique. Pu Yao seemed slightly
helpless but also grave. There are one hundred and seventy two types of colonel mo physiques.
Ranked first is Mystical Earth, second is Great Day, third is Demonic Fiend Sea.
Mystical Earth is not yin or yang, and is the only mo physique in colonel level mo physiques
that doesnt belong to either. The biggest reason that it is ranked first is that it can develop into
any brigadier physique, including the top three brigadier physiques.

Great Day is yang and unyielding, filled with brutal power. It is the best for developing any
kind of yang and unyielding mo physique in the future. Demonic Fiend Sea is yin and deceptive,
and the best for transformations.
I have the Great Day mo physique? Zuo Mo seemed to understand.
Right. Pu Yao explained, During the fight with Clear Sky Old Forefather, you coincidentally
activated the big formation. The big formation processed your body, the essence of Golden Crow,
hard lightning, and earth fire. All of those are yang and unyielding substances. Under these
coincidental conditions, it allowed you to develop the Great Day mo physique.
When he spoke to there, Pu Yao rolled his eyes. Its just you. If this was another other mo that
cultivated to Great Day mo physique, he would already have gone to find a jindan to feed on.
Afraid of a jindan? Humph!
Feed?
What is strange about that? The inner core of yaomo are treasures to xiuzhe, the jindan of a
xiuzhe is also great food for yaomo! Pu Yaos vividly red tongue unconsciously licked his lips.
You could try. That taste is delicious.
Zuo Mo shook, and then swore, Pu Yao, you pervert!
Pu Yao was not affected. Its you who is too ignorant. Its very normal for xiuzhe to use yaomo
to forge and in dan-making. But you say were perverts for eating golden cores?
Zuo Mo was speechless.
He decided to not linger on this question. What benefits are there to this Great Day mo
physique?
Pu Yao became excited. There are many benefits. Otherwise, how can it match to a jindan
xiuzhe? The first is in cultivating mo skills. You practiced [Sky Wave Fist Scripture] before, so
you must know the crux to fully using the power of this fist scripture is how strong your body is.
Mo skills are even more extreme on this point. In the future, you will discover than any mo skill
in the end it is to cultivate the body. Great Day mo physique is innately strong and powerful. It is
easier to cultivate those domineering mo skills.
Mo skills again, you dont have mo skills, what are you excited for? Zuo Mo responded
neutrally.
Pu Yao almost choked. He decided to ignore Zuo Mo, and continued, Mo physiques from
colonel and up have many wondrous abilities. Yaomo are not skilled in forging, and really cannot
stack up to xiuzhe on talismans. What do we do to compete then? One method is a soul-tethered

talisman, but they are different from the soul-tethered talisman of xiuzhe. The yaomos soultethered talisman is a part of their body, like a claw, tooth, or the skin they shed, formed after
being forged constantly. The other method is the transformation of the mo physique.
Of the colonel mo physiques, each type of mo physique has its own transformations, but there
are never more than six transformations. The reason that Mystical Earth, Great Day, and
Demonic Fiend Sea can rank in the top three is because all of them possess six transformations.
Zuo Mos eyes lit up upon hearing this, What are transformations?
Similar to the abhinna of dhyana xiu. Didnt you get Ling Eyes activated? The transformations
of a mo physique are techniques that can use the abilities of the mo physique to the greatest
degree.
You understand the six transformations? Zuo Mo looked at Pu Yao with suspicion.
Pu Yao said calmly, No.
I just knew. What Sky Yao, you dont understand anything Zuo Mo muttered to himself.
A vein throbbed in Pu Yaos forehead but he suppressed himself. I might not understand, but
someone does.
Who? Zuo Mo was very curious now.
That guy, Pu Yao said as he pointed at the gravestone.
The gravestone? Zuo Mo stilled.
Right. Smugness imperceptibly flashed across Pu Yaos eyes. You only need to agree to a
little request from him, and he will teach you the six transformations of the Great Day mo
physique, and also pass mo skills on to you.
Little request? Zuo Mo instinctively detected danger. He suddenly remembered the ancient
voice that sounded when Pu Yao had entered his body.
That damned To abide by my ceremony, to execute my desires, to give my oath, will thou? that
had tormented him.
The more he thought, the more his anger burned. In the past when ge had been tender, you felt ge
was easy to bully, and shit and peed on ges head, ge couldnt defeat you, so ge tolerated it! Now
you want to trick ge! No one could tolerate this!
He sprinted in front of the gravestone, and his foot heavily kicked the gravestone!

Idiot! You ran into ges sea of consciousness! Didnt give one piece of jingshi in rent! Now you
scheme against ge! Do you want to live?
Bang bang bang!
Bang bang bang!
As Zuo Mo swore loudly, his foot kicked the gravestone rapidly so much the gravestone
wobbled.
Seeing Zuo Mo turn berserk, his eyes bloodshot, Pu Yao was dumbstruck where he stood!
He he dared to kick him
Heavens
After a long time, Pu Yao finally recovered. When he saw the gravestone that had almost been
kicked over, his face instantly turned pale.
You
Just as he opened and said one word, he saw Zuo Mo stop and turned around. On the dark and
vicious face was a pair of bloody and murderous eyes.
Pu Yao swallowed. He felt he was being targeted by a wild beast. If he took a wrong step, Zuo
Mo would instantly leap over. His throat felt tight. When his words reached his mouth, they
became, Lets talk peacefully lets talk peacefully
Zuo Mo turned around his pot-black face, and lifted his foot again.
Bang bang bang!
After kicking viciously for dozens of times, he finally stopped. Before he left, he did not forget
to leave words behind. Idiot, let ge tell you! You dare to scheme against ge, ge will kill you!
As he finished, he was finally content and left.
Pu Yao looked dumbstruck at the gravestone. The black surface of the gravestone was covered in
footprints.
After a long moment, Pu Yao suddenly exploded in laughter so hard he fell down.
Hahahaha! This is the person you picked? He has such a personality! Really has a personality!
Even more of a personality than you in the past! Haha! How do you feel? It must be great! Haha,

I hadnt thought there would be a day when you get kicked by other people? This is so
interesting! Hahahaha! I like this guy!
In the sea of consciousness, Pu Yaos roaring laughter echoed.

When Zuo Mo left the sea of consciousness, his anger had not been completely vented. What
Great Day mo physique, ge doesnt care!
Dont think that if you had stuff like mo skills that you can get good things out of ge!
Ge doesnt lack spells!
Zuo Mo took out a large bunch of jade scrolls from the ring, and arranged them in a row.
These jade scrolls had been collected over time while he was in Little Mountain Jie, and were all
spells that were unique. The great majority were good fourth-grade spells. Among them, there
were also two fifth-grade spells. For him, at present, this was enough to use.
As to the golden core, it can go to hell!
Zuo Mo suddenly had a deep understanding of a rule. Self-reliance was the true path! Back at
Wu Kong Mountain, he was able to break through to the fourth level of the[Little Art of Cloud
and Rain] by relying on the lowest grade jade scroll. Right now, he had this many jade scrolls
and their grades were not low. There was no reason that he would deteriorate over time.
Deeply stimulated by Pu Yao and the gravestone, Zuo Mo completely sank into a frenzy.
Wasnt it just spells? Wasnt it just skills? You think if you hold onto the spells, you hold ges
throat?
If the tiger doesnt roar, you mistake it for a sick cat?
Ge will let you see why you Sky Yao and old antiques have declined to the point that you
couldnt pay the rent, and had to take out the yin beads but couldnt sell them!
While ge could hold a place in the outer sect of Wu Kong Sword Sect with just the [Little Art of
Cloud and Rain], everyone calling out Little Mo ge, and the jingshi was rolling in!

Translator Ramblings: World of Cultivation has fanart here by Ars. I love the crane feathers fan
Gongsun Cha has, reminds me of Zhuge Liang.
Pu Yao is like a child in this chapter. Gimme my candy, I want my candy, I WANT my CANDY!
Zuo Mos upgrade is explained and he (finally!) discovers the difference between Pu Yao and the
gravestone. Bit of a lighter chapter and more Pu Yao-Zuo Mo interactions so hopefully people
are satisfied. Also, look, no lil cliffy!
I researched and it turns out people pronounce a differently in English depending on
geography and other influences. So the a in A Gui seems like ah to me because thats how
I usually say my a. Some of you might pronounce a like ai or eh so please keep that in
mind.
Should I stick the ramblings of the past chapters back into the edited chapters. I thought they
were distracting between chapters so I left them out. Do they alleviate the off-putting horror that
Pu Yao might seem to be?

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Five Entrance to the
Jie River
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Three Hundred and Five Entrance to the Jie River
Of more than one hundred jade scrolls, seven-tenths were sword scriptures. This made Zuo Mo
feel very helpless.
Even though he had once cultivated sword essence at Wu Kong Mountains which had attracted
the eye of the sect leader and the others, but that was relying the abilities of Pu Yao to forcibly
make gains. His innate talent of practicing the sword was lacking, and he was more skilled with
five element spells.
So when he saw that seventy percent of the sword scriptures, he really had a headache. However,
he had put the words out. If he didnt do something, wouldnt Pu Yao laugh at him?
He was determined to get the two old codgers to see something new. Zuo Mo resolved himself.
Wasnt it just sword scriptures?
He lined up the jade scrolls, and read through each one patiently. However, he did not read
deeply, but scanned through all of them first.
It took him nearly two days to finish reading more than one hundred jade scrolls. His head was
dizzy and his vision was blurry when he finished, but he felt he had learned a lot. Right now, his
cultivation was limited, but of the xiuzhe of the same age, there were only a rare few as
knowledgeable as he was.

The spiritual cultivation arts of yao, the body cultivating mo skills of mo, and even though he
hadnt seen many high level spells of xiuzhe, but in terms of numbers, it was still very
astounding. There were rarely people who would do as he did, and like to read all kinds of spells
whether or not he would practice them or not.
The best benefit of having a vast knowledge was that he could examine these spells from a
higher level.
Even though Zuo Mo could not cultivate these spells to a deep level, but that did not stop him
from finding the main concepts. Of course, understanding was just understanding. Casting these
spells required more than just understanding.
The spells were of a great variety. It clearly was not realistic to cultivate them one by one.
And Pu Yao would completely dismiss these spells. He needed to think of a way to shock this
guy!
Zuo Mo thought for a long time. His face suddenly lit up he got it!

Is Boss okay? Xie Shan had a slightly worried expression.


Boss state was not normal! Anyone that had eyes was able to see this.
Boss had been in this state for a few days. Without eating and drinking, he sat on the deck as
though he had gone insane, occasionally mutter something. In comparison, A Gui that sat silently
beside him seemed more like a normal person.
Probably, Ma Fan said uncertainly.
Yesterday, Boss had suddenly cast an unknown spell. The result was the air in the surroundings
had suddenly turned chaotic. They had almost been caught in it. After that, everyone stayed far
away from Boss. Only A Gui sat silently beside him.
Haha, you think that it is easy to make a new spell? Pu Yao fanned the flames from the side.
Zuo Mo ignored him.
Time passed extremely quickly. Without realizing it, a month had passed.
Zuo Mo still forgot to rest and eat, but he still had nothing to show for his efforts.

The jie river entrance of Sky Water Jie was extremely wide. This place was controlled together
by eight different entities. Hundred Flower Alliance was one of them. Hundred Flower Alliance
entered the path through the flower, its entire sect was composed of female xiu. The sect leader,
Su Yue, was extremely adept, and Hundred Flower Alliance prospered in her hands.
Those that could have a share of the jie river entrance were all sects with great power. It could be
imagined how powerful Hundred Flower Alliance was.
Hundred Flower Alliance had a branch at this place with its own camp. More than five hundred
people were present. The leader was a jindan elder called Gao Jian Ting. It was possible to see
how much importance Hundred Flower Alliance put on the camp.
Gao Jian Ting was as beautiful as a flower, her [Begonia Sword Scripture] was at the level of
Sword Essence Manifestation. When she attacked, it was a beautiful scene of begonias flying in
the sky.
The slave transporting boats that went to Little Mountain Jie last time still havent come back?
Is there any other news? Gao Jian Tings brow was creased.

Shishu, no news has come back, a female disciple hurriedly responded.


Gao Jian Ting murmured to herself, Did something happen?
Just at this time, a female disciple suddenly ran in with panic. Shishu, Shihu! Please come out
and see this!
Gao Jian Tings expression changed, and her figure disappeared.
In the air, Gao Jian Tiang looked at the vast army in front of her, and inhaled sharply.
The sky above the jie river was completely filled with xiuzhe without any visible end.
Shishu, thats our slave transporting boats! a female disciple cried out.
Gao Jian Tings pupils suddenly shrank. That was right, the five big ships at the very center of
this large army were the slave transporting boats of Hundred Flower Alliance! The other didnt
even change the Hundred Flower Alliance markings on the slave transporting boats.
She was confident that something had happened in Little Mountain Jie!
This large procession disturbed all the factions. Sword lights flashed, and large amounts of
xiuzhe flew into the sky. However, when they saw such a large number of xiuzhe, they were
dumbstruck where they stood.
Heavens! What is going on?
The five colossal slave transporting boats slowly flew with a shocking presence like moons
buoyed by the stars.
Gao Jian Tings expression changed. She controlled herself and did not move rashly. Since the
other had gotten to this place, Clear Sky Old Forefather had most likely been killed. They were
both jindan, and Gao Jian Ting knew her own strength was far below Clear Sky Old Forefather.
Even more, the troop that was swimming around the slave transporting boats looked extremely
strong from a glance.
She was not only one. Every persons gaze was attracted by Vermillion Bird Camp. This troop of
no more than eight hundred people gave them a strong feeling of danger.
Elite!
Only an elite force that gone through many battles would possess such a dangerous aura.
The Little Mountain Jie xiuzhe that had just arrived were exhausted but all of them were excited.
They had finally escaped Little Mountain Jie!
However, when they noticed the xiuzhe from Sky Water Jie looking warily at them, they instantly
quieted down. These fortunate xiuzhe that had survived had all gone through blood and fire.
Their sensitivity to danger was far higher than Sky Water Jie xiuzhe.
They unconsciously retreated towards the five slave transporting boats. Even more of them took
out their talismans.
Silence, an abnormal silence!
The situation instantly became tense. The expressions of the Sky Water Jie xiuzhe changed. They
felt as though there was an invisible cord tightening slowly.
Gao Jian Tings expression also changed as well. The other side had much higher numbers than
they did. If a conflict occurred, this place would flow with blood.
Their gazes all turned to the five slave transporting boats.
At this time, many people noticed the Hundred Flower Pavilion marks on the slave transporting
boats and looked at Gao Jian Ting with strange looks. However, when they saw the contorted
grimace on Gao Jian Tings face, they instantly understood.
They all knew what Hundred Flower Pavilion had done in Little Mountain Jie. Looking at it
now, Hundred Flower Pavilion probably had not gotten any benefits.

However, they were more curious about the five slave transporting boats. From the movements
of the xiuzhe, it was possible to see the leader of this group of people were on the five boats.
Gongsun Cha looked at Zuo Mo. Shu Long looked at Zuo Mo. They were waiting for Zuo Mos
order.
The xiuzhe in the surroundings all turned to look at Zuo Mo, waiting for the order from the
master of Golden Crow City.
When people encountered danger, they were used to looking towards people who could resolve
the problem and bring them victory. Zuo Mo was this kind of person in their hearts.
Gao Jian Ting and the others also noticed the change in peoples gazes, and unconsciously
looked towards the youth sitting on the deck of the slave transporting boat at the very front.
The enormous jie river entrance was silent.

At the center of everyones attention, Zuo Mo didnt feel anything at all. He was arguing
furiously with Pu Yao.
This is what you thought of? Ha, nonsense! Pu Yao said scornfully, I thought you had some
ability, but after working for a month, you just have something this far-fetched?
Far-fetched? You old codger thats been dead for a thousand years, youre just like the
gravestone, even your mind has rusted. Of course you guys cant understand something this
cutting-edge! Zuo Mo was not weak as he retaliated.
Dont put me with that guy! Pu Yao raged, This honored Sky Yao
So what if youre a Sky yao? Zuo Mo said disdainfully as he looked sideways, Out of time is
out of time.
Pu Yao smiled and said calmly, Your idea is unique, but your experience in cultivation is too
little. You clearly have underestimated the difficulty in this. If you are in jindan, you may be able
to use this move, but you definitely cannot right now! Something that cannot be used has no
value.
Its useless because you say so? You really are confident! Zuo Mo snorted coldly. If I can do
it, what then?
Pu Yaos eye narrowed like a blade, and he said darkly, You do not need to provoke me. If you
can do it, I will help you get the six transformations of Great Day mo physique. But if you cannot
do it, then you have to agree to the gravestones oath.
You promise? Zuo Mo asked as he tilted his head.
Yes! Pu Yao said coldly.
Alright, I agree! Zuo Mo nickered, a cunning smile on his face. Pu, you got tricked!
Finishing, Zuo Mos hands swiped and forming a sword scripture move.
A faint blue sword energy appeared in front of him.
His hands continuously swiped.
A red sword energy and a gold sword energy appeared.
His expression was unusually serious. With a light shout, the sword scriptures on his hands
turned and his hand motions changes. The three sword energies seemed to change as they were
guided by an invisible force.
Pu, this is Three Talent Formation!
In front of Zuo Mo was a three-leaf shaped sword formation composed of sword energies. The
sword formation flowed in motion!

Four Cardinal Formation!


Zuo Mo released another sword scripture. This formation changed. Three talent into four
cardinal. The nimble presence turned to a heavy one.
Five Element formation!
Heaven Light Seven Star Sword Formation!

Gao Jian Ting stared at the sword formation in front of the youth with shock on her face. With
her eyes, she could see that every sword energy the youth released was a beginning one, but the
attributes of each sword energy were completely different. If it was just this, that only showed
that this boys knowledge was shamefully heterogeneous, and she wouldnt be so shocked.
Yet the youth deliberately merged these sword energies of different attributes into a sword
formation!
She could not completely understand the sword formation in front of the youth but there were
thirty six types of sword energies that were put in.
When these normal sword energies formed a sword formation, their power grew! Looking from
far away, she could feel threads of cold.
This skill was to turn what was rotten into a wonder!
Powerful!
What were the origins of this youth?
She did not notice that the tense atmosphere had dissipated. Everyones attention were attracted
by the sword formation in front of Zuo Mo! No matter if it was the xiuzhe of Sky Water Jie or
Little Mountain Jie, all of them had shock on their faces!

At this time, Zuo Mos eyes suddenly widened as he glared and shouted, Pu, look closely!
Translator Ramblings: Thanks for the feedback yesterday, everyone!
Zuo Mo needs to improve his awareness of the surroundings. Is not nice to flaunt someones
former property in front of them, the boats are worth a lot. Slave traders meeting their former
slaves that were stolen and then freed.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Six Spells Entering
Formation
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Three Hundred and Six Spells Entering Formation
Zuo Mos cheeks ballooned, his eyes were round like a toad expanding its cheeks, and blew out
heavily!
Whoosh!
A red thread of fire emerged from his mouth!

Countless small flames landed like raindrops in the sword formation.


Boom!
The light from the sword formation exploded, countless red sparks floating in the middle. Inside
the sharp murderous intent was an explosive energy.
At the same time, Zuo Mos hands flipped and the [Little Art of Cloud and Rain] formed. The
glowing rain silently entered the sword formation. Innumerable clear droplets floated inside the
formation. The water and fire were clearly divided and extremely pretty to look at. However, no
one was attracted by its beauty. The dangerous presence exuded by the water and fire sword
formation made everyones hearts speed up.
Pu, look, isnt this it? Zuo Mo smugly showed off.
This was the method he thought of.
After Zuo Mo had read through more than one hundred jade scrolls, he found that while the
quality of each was good, there wasnt a spell that made peaked his interest. At this moment, he
suddenly found that he had become pickier without previously noticing it.
However, he suddenly discovered that even though these spells and sword scriptures were not
outstanding, they were at least varied. Each jade scroll had its own unique qualities. He had a
daring idea. Could he merge all of these spells together?
Consequently, he thought of formations.
Different sword energies and spells contained an abundance of changes, and thus they were
perfect for formations.
It was extremely difficult to use different sword energies and spells to create a formation.
When this idea jumped out, he knew it was possible! However, he didnt speak of it. He really
desired the six transformations of the Great Day mo physique from the bottom of his heart,
especially when he heard Pu Yao say that it could match a jindan xiuzhe. He forcibly stopped the
impulse to make a deal, and spent a whole month to sort through every detail that he could think
of before he set the trap for Pu Yao.
Zuo Mos face was very smug but his heart was beating rapidly inside. Only when he finished
setting up the formation did the stone in his heart land on the ground.
Dearie, he should not frequently do things like this in the future, that was too intense for ge!
How how is it possible
When Zuo Mo saw Pu Yaos dumbstruck expression, all of the nervousness flew away, and his
body felt unspeakably comfortable!
Divine Summoning Art! Pu Yaos eyes widened greatly as he stared in disbelief at Zuo Mo.
Divine Summoning Art? What is that? Zuo Mo was confused.
Pu Yao had a death stare locked on Zuo Mo. His gaze was so strange that Zuo Mo felt his hairs
stand up.
Pu, I have no interest in yao
Pu Yaos eyes were tightly fixed on Zuo Mo and he did not speak.
After a while, Zuo Mo really could not suppress himself. Pu, you cant go back on your word!
His finger motions instantly changed. Look, I used [Bright Light Spell] as the foundation, then
[Black Fire Spell] and [Ling Wood Spell] so that the wood element would create fire. Then I used
the [Black Daze Spell] as the connection to create the presence of the Fire-Tailed tiger, which is
highly offensive and vicious!
In front of him, a formation that seemed like a ferocious tiger took form. A thread of fire tail was
waving in the air, cold and murderous.


Gao Jian Ting who saw this, couldnt stop herself from inhaling sharply. With a few flicks of the
youths finger, all kinds of spells fell like rain, and the formation took form almost in the blink of
an eye.
What finger method was this?
With her cultivation and keen eyes, she could clearly see every step Zuo Mo made, but when all
the movements were connected together, she could not understand it. However, the high spirited
and vicious presence of this Fire-Tailed tiger formation rushed at her face.
She had never heard of such a fantastical method.
In her eyes, the youth sitting on the boat suddenly became deep and mysterious. Was it the
disciple of some big sect out on a right of passage? This was her only rational guess.

The highest-ranking commanders of the other factions also had heavy expression at this time.
Zuo Mos move really was astounding and exquisite, stunning the entire place.
Even though they didnt know why this youth would show this to everyone, but the factions
couldnt help but start to mutter.
Why do you know Divine Summoning Art? Pu Yao stared at Zuo Mo and bit out his words one
by one.
What is Divine Summoning Art? Zuo Mo asked curiously.
Pu Yao stared at Zuo Mo for a long time before opening. Then how are you controlling these
spells?
Spiritual power! Zuo Mo looked strangely at Pu Yao. Of course it is spiritual power. This is
very easy! Look.
He flicked with a finger and a thread of fire flew before him. Without any visible action from
him, the thread of fire seemed to be pulled by an invisible force to spin around Zuo Mo.
You dont know how? Zuo Mo felt it was even more strange. No way! Shouldnt a finger
method as easy as this be something that all yao cultivate?
How many threads can you control in total? Pu Yao did not answer but asked in response.
A lot! Without another word, Zuo Mos finger flicked continuously. Threads of fire floated in
the air. In a short moment, more than one hundred flames were floating around him. Zuo Mos
consciousness moved, and controlled these flames to perform all kinds of moves.
Alright! I will give you the six transformations to the Great Day mo physique tomorrow! Pu
Yao said decisively.
Zuo Mo instantly had a smile. Pu Yao might have the track record of a con artist, but when he
promised something he never went back on his word.
You should first resolve what is happening right now, Pu Yao then said.
Zuo Mo stilled. Pu Yaos tone actually became slightly friendly. This made feel very
unaccustomed. Illusion, this definitely was an illusion!
As he warned himself not to forget, he started to examine what was in front of him.
When he looked, his body shook.
What situation was this

The surroundings were deathly silent and every person was looking at him. Even if the skin on
Zuo Mos face was thick, he still felt his scalp prickle. Had he been embarrassing himself in front
of so many people just now?
It was over, over!
He wailed inside. However, the skin on his face was truly thick, and he quickly composed
himself.
Zuo Mo calmly asked, Um, whats going on?
When Xie Shan, Ma Fan, and the others heard this, they almost dropped from the sky. They
stared at each other. Boss had made such a fuss, and now he was asking them what was
happening?
Gongsun Chas expression did not change. He coughed lightly, and said to Zong Ru beside him
Oh, the wind outside is strong, Im going in to rest.
He then left for the cabin. Zong Ru reached out a hand in bewilderment. There was no wind.
Seeing no one answer after a while, anger sprouted from Zuo Mos embarrassment. He pointed at
Ma Fan, You, speak!
Ma Fan felt very unlucky. He could hear the muffled laughs of Xie Shan, Lei Peng and the others
beside him, but he forced himself to fly next to Zuo Mo. Boss, this, look
He pointed at the Sky Water Jie xiuzhe in the sky.
Zuo Mo followed Ma Fans finger and gazed at the Sky Water Jie xiuzhe opposite them. After
tilting his head and thinking for a while, he said, They are not letting us go across?
When these words came out, all the Little Mountain Jie xiuzhe uncontrollably tightened their
grip on their talismans, their gazes became vicious.
Gao Jian Ting and the others had extraordinary hearing. When they heard Zuo Mos words, their
hearts jumped suddenly. If they had been just wary of the number of the Little Mountain Jie
xiuzhe before, after seeing Zuo Mos uncanny formation, they were even more wary of his
origins.
The instinctive movements of the others xiuzhe subordinates made their hearts tighten when
they saw it.
They knew that it was not good but if they spoke and showed weakness now, they felt they
would lose face.
At this time, Rong Wei inserted, City Master, dont be angry. Everyone must not have known
that City Master and your procession would be arriving, and have overreacted. City Master,
please allow this one to go forward to speak.
Rong Wei was very nervous. She had seen the battle of Golden Crow City. Zuo Mo didnt even
respect Clear Sky Old Forefather. If these people infuriated him, this place would flow with
blood today.
Having managed to escape from Little Mountain Jie after a struggle, Zuo Mo was slightly
discontent at being blockaded at the Sky Water Jie entrance.
He had led this group of people and survived for so long in Little Mountain Jie, and a killing
energy had settled on his body. However, he didnt want to enter a conflict with the local factions
just as he entered Sky Water Jie. He said to Rong Wei, Then we will trouble Miss Rong!
Rong Wei hurriedly flew towards the people of Sky Water Jie.
Normal xiuzhe might not know of Rong Wei of the House of the Crow Marquis, but the leaders
of the eight factions recognized her. After Rong Wei went over and quietly spoke with them, the
Sky Water Jie xiuzhe in front of Zuo Mo retreated.
Zuo Mo was slightly shocked. It seemed this House of the Crow Marquis wasnt simple!

Thinking about how the House of the Crow Marquis was investigating the Stars in Daytime, Zuo
Mo was very irritated. It wasnt a good feeling that he was being targeted by a force that had a
powerful background.
Rong Wei came back and smiled. It is done!
Zuo Mo had to give his thanks again. The five slave transporting boats slowly started and took
the vast group of xiuhe into Sky Water Jie.

Gao Jian Ting gazed at this enormous troop, worry rising in her heart. She could only hope now
that these five slave transporting boats were not spoils of war from a direct conflict.
No, she had to report this to the sect leader immediately!
She didnt dare to procrastinate and took out a paper crane. After she finished writing, she
channeled ling power into the crane and watched as it disappeared into the sky.
At the same time, hundreds of paper cranes flew into the sky and disappeared.

As they entered Sky Water Jie, Zuo Mos emotions totally relaxed. At evening, they reached the
first major city of Sky Water Jie, Guang Heng City. When such a large number of xiuzhe
appeared in the horizon, they created terror in the local xiuzhe.
Fortunately, Rong Wei came out at the appropriate time to comfort them, and dissipate their
panic.
Seeing the situation, Zuo Mo established camp at a mountain peak outside the city.
There were no gatherings in the world that did not end. Many xiuzhe came at this time to Zuo Mo
to give their farewells. Zuo Mo did not urge them to remain and gave them his good wishes. The
sky filled with sword lights like rain that disappeared into the sky.
Their individual power was undoubted after being able to survive in Little Mountain Jie. They
would have good lives in Sky Water Jie.
After some thought, Zuo Mo gathered everyone together, and took the jinzhi off their bodies. He
looked with emotion at them, and suddenly felt a bit proud.
Truthfully, I had no choice but to put jinzhi in everyone in the past. Fortunately, we have
escaped Little Mountain Jie. Starting from today, everyone is free, you can go wherever you
want! Everyone can go get five pieces of fourth-grade jingshi from Old Bao.
The people shifted slightly, but all of them were silent. No one moved.
Zuo Mo saw that no one moved, and felt irritated. He waved his hand. Im letting you go, so
go!
Finishing, he turned and left.
It was night, and the moonlight was like water.
Translator Ramblings: Zuo Mo astonishes Pu Yao through formations and five element spells.
Zuo Mo and the people of Sky Water Jie are not off to a good start. Mass influx of refugees and a
show of great power. I like how Rong Wei is trying to prevent bloodshed and is actually afraid of
Zuo Mo. Also, five pieces of fourth-grade jingshi! I actually think Zuo Mo is way too generous
this time but he did enslave them and force them to fight so reparations it is.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Seven Bright Water City
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Three Hundred and Seven Bright Water City
Zuo Mo sat on top of a rock at the top of the mountain. The moon was shining above his head,
and A Gui was sitting silently beside him.
Gongsun Cha found Zuo Mo. Seeing him, he could only smile.
What are you smiling about? Zuo Mo said irritably, and then asked, Wheres Cheng Shidi?
Hes still experimenting with his ling beasts. According to him, hes at a critical time period.
Gongsun Cha found a rock beside Zuo Mo and sat down. He stretched lazily. I can finally rest.
In Little Mountain Jie, I didnt have one night of peaceful rest.
I had thought that a battle maniac like you wouldnt need to rest. Zuo Mo glanced at him and
mocked.
Oh, thats because I was just starting. Gongsun Cha gave a shy smile. Zuo Mo acted as though
he was going to puke.
Why are you letting them leave? Gongsun Chas tone became serious.
Zuo Mo rolled his eyes. I cant support them. Do you know how great the pressure it is to feed
all these people? Oh, in Little Mountain Jie, we can steal resources, but that doesnt work
anywhere else. Those not in charge of the household, do not know how expensive food is. To say
of nothing else, you know how much Vermillion Bird Camp uses every day. In any case, we have
all fought together, its better to have a good farewell.
Gongsun Cha was the one that knew the most about the expenses of Vermillion Bird Camp. It
definitely was not realistic to keep everyone.
Sky Water Jie was much more wealthy and prosperous than Little Mountain Jie, but its territories
had already been divided up. If they wanted to insert themselves, they would have to act against
other factions. Gongsun Cha did not fear fighting, but this way, they would easily become the
common enemy of the entire Sky Water Jie. That would not be good.
A lot of people would probably go. Gongsun Cha smacked his lips as he said, Peoples hearts
have started to change as they arrived in Sky Water Jie.
This is also good, Zuo Mo said.
The two became silent.
After a while, Gongsun Cha looked at Zuo Mo, and then at A Gui who was sitting woodenly. He
asked, Where do we go next? En, dont say something like its dangerous, and you will go
alone.
Zuo Mos heart warmed and said, I need to find Water Cloud Embryo.
Water Cloud Embryo? Gongsun Cha looked at A Gui. For A Gui?
En! Zuo Mo nodded, I dont know what connection I have with A Gui, but since she became
like this to save me, I cannot just sit back and do nothing.
Thats for sure. Gongsun Cha had an expression of agreement and then raised his arms,
shouting exuberantly, For A Gui! We will find Cloud Water Embryo!
Zuo Mo was very moved and a smile appeared on his face.
Hee he, the best is if we can encounter more fighting! It makes me excited just thinking about
it! Gongsun Cha said calmly.

As expected from a battle maniac


Oh, where are we going to find Water Cloud Embryo? Can we buy it? Gongsun Cha asked.
Dont know. Zuo Mo shook his head. He looked at A Gui and said, We have to investigate.
His heart suddenly moved and took out the sound tablet from his ring. Gongsun Chas gaze was
attracted and he was very shocked. Shixiong has kept this with you! Its been so long since I
listened to it!
Yes, its been a long time since we listened. Zuo Mo channeled ling power into the sound
tablet.
The calm voice floated out from the sound tablet and was unspeakably intimate.
Under the moonlight, Zuo Mo and Gongsun Cha idly listened to the sound tablet, A Gui sitting
silently beside them.

The morning of the next day.


Yesterday night was fated to be a difficult one for many people. The eyes of many people were
bloodshot, some of them had heavy expressions. The number of people in the camp had been
dramatically reduced.
Gongsun Chas expression was very relaxed. No one from Vermillion Bird Camp had left. The
people that left were mostly from the Eastern and Western Camps. Of more than two thousand
people, less than eight hundred remained.
I can fill Vermillion Bird Camp now, Gongsun Cha said with a smile.
Vermillion Bird Camp did not leave and Guard Camp did not leave. The departure of the
majority of the Eastern and Western Camp was not out of Zuo Mos expectations. What surprised
him was the forging division. None of the xiuzhe from the forging division had left.
Zuo Mo looked at the pairs of eyes below him and was very moved.
He opened his mouth, but when the words reached his lips, he didnt know what to say.
What are you all standing here for? Go back to work!
Zuo Mos shout made everyone roar with laughter. The sorrow due the departures had dissipated
greatly.

Rong Wei saw this scene and her heart shook. She increasingly felt that she could not clearly
understand the Master of Golden Crow City. Yesterday, she had been very shocked when she
heard the Master of Golden Crow City was letting people leave. How could there be someone
that would willing weaken themselves?
But today, when she saw the determined looks of the xiuzhe from Golden Crow City, she seemed
to understand.
This troop in front of her was more unified and had stronger morale than the previous group.
Even if they encountered greater dangers, they wouldnt easily break up!
The Master of Golden Crow City appeared to have weakened his power, but in reality, his
primary strength had not been damaged, the organization had become purer, and the average
strength had actually went up a level, and had gained strong abilities of survival!

Looking at that outrageously young face, Rong Wei felt it was almost impossible to believe. At a
glance, Zuo Mo did not have any outstanding qualities. But the actions this youth took frequently
displayed a maturity that surpassed his age.
She suddenly realized that even if the Master of Golden Crow City did not have that mysterious
and powerful sect behind him, he would not be one of the masses with his abilities.
Just as she was thinking, Zuo Mo suddenly turned around to face her. Miss Rong, where is the
biggest city of Sky Water Jie?
Rong Wei gathered her thoughts and said with a slight smile, There are twenty eight primary
towns in Sky Water Jie. The most prosperous would be Bright Water City. Does City Master
have any plans?
Oh, I have a batch of items I want to sell, and buy items along the way.
If thats the case, Bright Water City is perfect. The biggest merchants in Sky Water Jie are all in
Bright Water City. Rong Wei then said with a smile, This ones house is located in Bright
Water City, and have relationships with those merchants, we may be able to help.
Zuo Mo hurried to give him thanks. Many thanks, Miss Rong!

Su Yue finished reading the paper crane that Gao Jian Ting had sent, and a shadow flashed
through her eyes. Su Yue was very charismatic and attractive. She was still the most attractive
woman even among the multitude of beautiful women in Hundred Flower Alliance. She had
managed Hundred Flower Alliance for twenty years and had good relationships with all the sects.
The disciples under her had mostly married the accomplished disciples from big sects, and she
had a deep foundation.
Lets not rashly move on this matter. Su Yue said deeply, See what their origins really are.
Yes! the female disciple respectfully responded.
Where are they now?
They reached the border of the city last night. The female disciple crisply answered, It was
Miss Rong Wei that brought them over.
Oh. Su Yue was slightly surprised and then had an expression of deep thought. She could not
see what connection Rong Wei had with this Master of Golden Crow City.
The House of the Crow Marquis was as deep as the sea, and hard for outsiders to probe. But
Hundred Flower Alliance had countless eyes, and were the most skilled at spying. Su Yue could
see a hint. Of all the factions in Bright Water City, the one Su Yue was wary of the most was the
House of the Crow Marquis.
The House of the Crow Marquis was usually low-key and did not attend to outside matters. The
Crow Marquis himself only focused on cultivation. However, all the hints showed that there was
a deep background behind the Crow Marquis. Su Yue had detected this a long time ago, but after
all these years, no matter how they searched, they still did not find anything.
Rong Weis trip this time was the biggest action the House of the Crow Marquis took in years.
Su Yue smelt an unusual flavor from this.

When they saw Bright Water City, Zuo Mo and the shidi were slightly shocked. Bright Water
City was tens of times bigger than Dong Fu. The entire sky was covered in lights that streamed

without end. In the sky above the city floated hundreds of islands of various sizes. The houses
constructed on the lucky clouds were multicolored from the lights of all kinds of jinzhi and
formations.
Sky Water Jie was more prosperous than Sky Moon Jie as expected.
The other people were alright, but the trio of Zuo Mo, Gongsun Cha, and Chun Yu Cheng were
people that were inexperienced. Each of them gaped, their faces filled with shock.
Rong Wei who had been constantly observing them felt slightly confused. These threes actions
did not seem like those that came from large sects.
However, she was not suspicious. Many disciples from large sect never asked about worldly
affairs so they could concentrate on cultivation. Some people would never even leave the sects
mountain for decades.
She didnt show any signs of scorn and enthusiastically showed them around.
Bright Water City is the best part of Sky Water Jie. Almost four-tenths of this jies ling veins are
located here, and there are the most secret paradises here. If City Master wants to develop here,
you could buy a few secret paradises. They are the best for cultivating.
Secret paradieses did not hold any attraction for Zuo Mo. His mo physique could automatically
absorb ling power from the world and it could process the impurities. He did not need a secret
paradise.
The other people also lacked interest in the secret paradises.
Rong Wei was even more certain now that the Master of Golden Crow City came from a large
sect. For normal xiuzhe, secret paradises were their biggest love as well as their greatest wish.
Many xiuzhe worked their whole lives with the goal of owning a secret paradise.
Only disciples from large sects did not need to worry about secret paradises.
Zuo Mos procession could truly be called vast. They had camped at an empty area outside the
city. What made Zuo Mo depressed was that the empty area outside the city was owned. It had
taken Rong Wei coming forward to get the matter settled.
Shu Long and the others did not have any interest in touring the city. Having recovered his
youth, Shu Longs mania on cultivation was enough to make Zuo Mo sweat. With him as the role
model, everyone in Guard Camp had become cultivation maniacs.
The people of the forging division also stayed at the camp with only Sun Bao and Ji Wei coming
along. Other than that, Bao Yi was a person that could not be left behind. Considering that they
should not be high-key, Gongsun Cha still took along three divisions, Sky Peak Platoon among
them.
Even so, this procession was very eye-catching.
The killing aura of Vermillion Bird Camp that had been forged through combat was completely
different than normal guards. Landing in the eyes of those who understood, they couldnt stop
themselves from speculating.
Fortunately, Rong Wei knew many people in Bright Water City and people would occasionally
come up to exchange greetings.
Rong Weis mind suddenly moved and when she raised her head, a paper crane flew over.
The paper crane landed on her palm. She lightly unfolded it. When she finished reading, there
was a surprised expression.
The Marquis was not in the compound!
The compound guard she had sent back to the compound informed her that the Marquis had left
half a month ago and had not yet returned. Rong Wei felt slight regret. She had wanted to take

the Master of Golden Crow City to meet the Marquis. The Marquis was very knowledgeable and
might have been able to see his origins.
It seemed like she could not do it. She was worried about the affairs of the house and bowed in
apology to Zuo Mo, My sincere apologies. Rong Wei did not know that the Marquis had left a
fortnight ago, and has not yet returned. There are many affairs in the compound. Rong Wei will
bid farewell early. City Master, please give your forgiveness.
Hearing this, Zuo Mo hurriedly said, Miss Rong has helped us greatly. We are very grateful, you
should hurry! We will just walk around by ourselves!
Worried about the internal situation of the house, Rong Wei left.
The procession of people hadnt walked around for long when Zuo Mos expression changed and
suddenly stopped walking. Someone was following them!
Translator Rambings: Sometimes I find wordpress painful. Because I cant find the comments,
Ill reply to some here.
One person was right on the dot regarding why Zuo Mo is letting the people go, he doesnt have
the money to support all those people. To the person who offered donations, Im happy that you
like the translation so much but I wont be accepting any donations at this point. To the reader
who mentioned Chun Yu Cheng, hes alive and still being a mad animal farmer. It would be
funny if Zuo Mo and Gongsun Cha just forgot about him but theyve been together for at least a
year so thats not likely. I know my ramblings are long sometimes but you guys actually get the
condensed version. I end up deleting non-essential stuff.
Zuo Mo does something to save money and people are thinking too highly of his wisdom. The
increased unity is just a side effective of Zuo Mos miserly nature and pragmatism. Rong Wei
who thinks of him like this extremely violent person that is extremely intelligent and can be set
off easily, which I guess is not an improvement over thinking of him as a lecherous person.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Eight Brute!
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom and warlord212.
Chapter Three Hundred and Eight Brute!
Zuo Mo gave everyone a look. They all understood and purposely walked towards a less
populated area.
Is there a reason Sir is following us?
Zuo Mo looked coldly at this xiuzhe wearing almond-yellow Taoist robes, with white hair yet
had a child-like appearance. There were still many people passing by. When these xiuzhe saw the
yellow-robed old Taoist, they all changed expression and hurriedly left!
Little baby is pretty clever to have noticed Old Forefather. This old persons tone was very
proud. Facing Zuo Mos procession, he showed no fear.
The three divisions of Vermillion Bird Camp silently prepared to fight and could attack at any
moment.
I urge you to not move. The yellow-robed old Taoist snickered. Otherwise, this Old
Forefather would make you feel it.
Zuo Mo rolled his eyes. Why did everyone speak so much these days?

However, Zuo Mo didnt want to make trouble right after arriving in Bright Water City. He
glanced at the yellow-robed old Taoist. Sir has followed us for this long, it shouldnt just be to
chat, right?
Hee hee, little baby, you have a talisman. Since you cant use it, why dont you give it to this
Old Forefather? the yellow-robed old Taoist said cheerfully.
Zuo Mo was slightly surprised. He said, Talisman? I have many talismans. Which one is Sir
speaking of?
You have a pile of scrap metal. Theres only one that can be considered a talisman, it should be
a sixth-grade talisman! The yellow-robed old Taoist narrowed his eyes that twinkled with greed.
Sixth-grade talisman. Zuo Mos heart shook. The number of people that knew the Nine Turn Sky
Soil Disk had landed in his possession was pitifully few. How could this old Taoist know?
Sir is joking! A sixth-grade talisman isnt something someone like this one can possess! Zuo
Mo refuted.
Dont pretend in front of this Old Forefather. The expression of the yellow-robed old Taoist
turned cold and he seemed impatient. Old Forefather doesnt want to hear you blab. If you are
wise, hand it over. Old Forefather naturally wont forget to give you something in return.
Sir means? Zuo Mo said lightly, his eyes turning cold.
Ha, dont think that Old Forefather doesnt dare to attack you because you glued yourselves
onto the House of the Crow Marquis. Hmph, even if the Crow Marquis personally comes, he
cant save you!
The presence of the yellow-robed old Taoist suddenly grew. The ling power in the surroundings
seemed to become chaotic and become abnormally restless.
The faces of Zuo Mo and the others changed dramatically!
Jindan!
This yellow-robed old Taoist was actually a jindan!
Hee hee! Be wise, and take it out. Dont make Old Forefather personally act. It wont look good
then! the yellow-robed Taoist said darkly.
The strong ling pressure was like lead that pressed down on them to the point of suffocation. Zuo
Mo and the others had never directly faced a jindan at such a close distance. Their battle against
Clear Sky Old Forefather had been in the air. The feeling now was completely different. In their
eyes, the figure of the yellow-robed old Taoist was as high as a mountain. They were as small as
insects, and unable to shake him.
At such a close distance to a jindan, just this terrifying ling pressure was enough for the great
majority of ningmai to lose their will to resist.
Hee, I hadnt noticed that you do have some talent! A flash of shock passed through the eyes of
the yellow-robed old Taoist and then he snickered. Pity that it isnt enough in front of Old
Forefather!
A light flashed through the eyes of the yellow-robed old Taoist.
Everyone suddenly felt their body be pulled down and could not move. They couldnt even raise
their arms. Everyone had shocked expressions.
Power of the earth!
You Zuo Mo glared angrily, but his body didnt move at all. He finally knew why the
other wanted the Nine Turn Sky Soil Disk! The other cultivated earth element spells.
What what earth element spell was so tyrannical!
Xie Shan gave a muffled grunt and forcibly channeled his ling power to activate his sword
scripture.

Somewhat interesting. It seems you are almost at jindan. The yellow-robed old Taoist had a
surprised expression again. However, he then was unconcerned. Its a pity that your luck isnt
good.
Pew.
Xie Shan felt the ling power in his chest reverse. He couldnt not stop himself from spraying up a
mouthful of blood.
Dont struggle! The yellow-robed old Taoist looked scornfully at Xie Shan. It is useless.
There is just one line between us, but this one line is the difference between heaven and earth.
Finishing, he ignored Xie Shan and turned to walk towards Zuo Mo.
Hee hee, why did you have to force Old Forefather to act? The yellow-robed old Taoist smiled
smugly and casually walked in front of Zuo Mo and slapped Zuo Mos face. He roared with
laughter. Old Forefathers luck today is really good, many thanks to you!
The xiuzhe of Vermillion Bird Camp all glared angrily, furiously channeling their ling power to
struggle!
They are pretty loyal to you! The yellow-robed old Taoist snickered and continued to slap Zuo
Mos face. But so what? Ha ha!
Zuo Mo bore the pain and asked through his teeth, How did you know I have this talisman?
The yellow-robed old Taoist was very proud. Ill teach you a lesson. Sixth-grade talismans have
cognition, and Old Forefather knows a spell to find cognition.
He examined Zuo Mo from head to toe. At the end, his eyes landed on the rings on Zuo Mos
hand. His eyes suddenly lit up, and he laughed loudly. Old Forefather is getting a tidy sum
today! So many dimensional rings!
As he spoke, he reached out to grab at a ring on Zuo Mos finger.
Just as his finger touched Zuo Mos finger, a change suddenly happened!
This motionless hand that was wearing several dimensional rings flipped upwards without a
warning, and grabbed his hand!
The expression of the yellow-robed old Taoist suddenly changed. You
A terrifying force passed from his hand. He could not control his body and was slammed towards
the other.
Not good!
The yellow-robed old Taoist reacted quickly. He was just going to activate his ling shield when
his eyes suddenly bulged, his figure felt numb, and curled upwards.
A punch that could break rock slammed into his abdomen!
Zuo Mos features were twisted. Half of his face was still red as he bellowed, Ge has had to
bear with you for a long time already!
Bang!
The body of the yellow-robed old Taoist shook. The enormous force caused his entire face to
deform.
After practicing [Vajra Profound Sutra], Zuo Mos strength had increased greatly. The present
strength of Zuo Mo who had a Great Day mo physique had reached a terrifying level. The flesh
of mo were all extremely strong, and how could Great Day mo physique which ranked second of
all brigadier mo physiques lack in this regard?
It wasnt lacking, and was stronger, much stronger than Zuo Mo had imagined.
When his body had been restricted earlier, he had held some power back. He had personally
experienced the restrictive abilities of the Nine Turn Sky Earth Disk, and therefore didnt panic.
The power of the Great Day mo physique was much stronger than the time he had been trapped

by the Nine Turn Sky Soil Disk. But no one else in his group had the same terrifying strength he
did.
As a single person, he definitely could not defeat the other. Zuo Mo could only feign weakness to
bait the enemy.
At this time, he felt satisfaction. He had never felt that his fists were so filled with power, each
punch seemed to vent the anger inside of him into the body of the yellow-robed old Taoist.
Old Forefather! Ha, dont you know ge already killed an Old Forefather?
Bang!
Dare to steal ges treasures! Do you want to live?
Bang!
Dare to slap ges face! Youre finished!
Bang bang bang!
Zuo Mo handed out more than ten punches, each one landing on flesh. When a wallop landed on
the body of the yellow-robed old Taoist, it was possible to see his body shake, and his flesh
ripple. Zuo Mo hadnt vented his anger yet. Holding the neck of the yellow-robed old Taoist, he
threw the other onto the ground like throwing down a bag of sand.
Hiss!
Simultaneous inhales came from the surroundings, including Xie Shan who was injured and also
looked with abject shock at Boss who had totally gone berserk.
Boom boom boom!
The stone tiles on the ground cracked, stone flying with every blow.
Pia, the ling armor of the yellow-robed old Taoist couldnt tolerate such brutal strikes and
shattered.
Zuo Mos hand paused. The ling armor of a jindan should be worth a lot of jinshi!
His heart suddenly started to hurt. He suddenly became furious, and continued to slam the
yellow-robed old Taoist into the ground a dozen more times before he stopped. He raised his
head with satisfaction, one hand holding the neck of the yellow-robed old Taoist and turned to
face the other people.

Are you guys okay?


Whoosh, everyone simultaneous stepped back.
There wasnt any anger left in their eyes. They looked with sympathy at the yellow-robed old
Taoist that was being held by the neck by Zuo Mo like a rabid dog. The pitiful yellow-robed old
Taoist was not shaped like a person any more. He was completely swollen from the beating and
was unconscious.
Pitiful, so pitiful!
They had never seen such a pitiful jindan, one that had been punched to the point of being
misshapen.
They should never offend Boss!
Even a rough man like Lei Peng was pale with fright like a little girl, his heart shaking rapidly.
Zong Ru, who had once taught Boss fist scriptures, had an ashen face. He dared to guarantee that
he had not taught this
What was wild? What was brutish? What was savage?

In comparison to using brute force to hit a jindan to the point of unconsciousness, becoming
misshapen due to swelling of the entire body and leaving compound fractures.
We are xiuzhe, we specialize in techniques and ling
So when Boss turned with a reddened face, his face ferocious as he panted, they all retreated a
few steps.

Zuo Mo glanced at the yellow-robed old Taoist that he was holding, and felt very good inside. He
finally caught a jindan this time! He had promised to give Pu Yao a golden core. He hadnt
expected that he would encounter such a stupid jindan today. At this time, he completely forgot
how he was completely suppressed before.
Back to the camp!
He waved his hand grandly and flew at the front.

Far from where they were, Su Yues face was slightly pale. It was the first time she had seen such
a savage and brutish person.
When she had seen the yellow-robed old Taoist go to make trouble for Zuo Mo, she had taken
note. She wanted to see just how powerful this group was, but there was much to be wary of. The
appearance of the yellow-robed old Taoist was a great opportunity.
She recognized the yellow-robed Taoist. This person was vicious and cruel and had killed many
people. Even other jindan xiuzhe were wary of him.
The beginning of the incident did not deviate from her imagination.
Anyone that had a bit of common knowledge knew the difference between jindan and ningmai.
She even felt that Zuo Mo wouldnt dare to rebel, and obediently give up the talismans. When
the yellow-robed Taoist had activated his spell, she had secretly shaken her head and sighed. This
Master of Golden Crow City really wasnt a smart person.
But the scene immediately after struck her dumb.
The Master of Golden Crow City had suddenly moved and grabbed the yellow-robed old Taoist.
Without using any ling power, definitely without any ling power like a street-roaming gangster,
he had beat down a jindan with his fists.
But
The fist that had no ling power actually had beaten the yellow-robed old Taoist to the point of
being misshapen.
Was he a body cultivating xiuzhe?
What stage had he cultivated to in order to be able to beat a jindan xiuzhe to this state?
The simple and rough barrage from the Master of Golden Crow City made her pale and
uncontrollably feel a thread of fear.
This was a true brute!
Translator Ramblings: This only became so one-sided because the jindan was captured when he
was off-guard, was not able to utilize his speed and got beat up before he could use his spells to
attack Zuo Mo. But this does show that Zuo Mos physical strength has increased and his power
up is significant.

Not a lot of plot progression this chapter just action. This might make up for the
melancholy of the previous chapters. Or Fang Xiang is doing one of his abrupt changes in tone.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Nine The Greatest Gain
This chapter is brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom and warlord212.
Chapter Three Hundred and Nine The Greatest Gain.
At the camp.
Cant you go faster? Pu Yao impatiently urged from behind him.
What are you rushing for? Let me see if I missed anything! Zuo Mo searched the body of the
old Taoist one more time in great detail, to prevent anything from being left behind, before
reluctantly throwing the old Taoist to Pu Yao.
Pu Yao hurriedly turned into a black wind that took up the old Taoist and disappeared.
So pitiful! Zuo Mo shook his head in sympathy, but when his eyes returned to his spoils, his
face instantly filled with smiles. Fighting against a jindan was a painful process, but inventorying
the spoils was the best experience.
Woah
There wasnt much on the body of the old Taoist, but to be seen to have value in the eyes of a
jindan, those items naturally were not ordinary. A string of mother and child copper bells, a blue
stone about the size of his palm shaped like a mountain, and three jade scrolls.
Zuo Mo first took out the mother and child bells. The big and small yellow copper bells were
strung together with a red string.
Zuo Mo found it interesting and swung the copper bell.
Dong!
Zuo Mo seemed to be hit full-on by a wild beast. Before he could react, he was thrown back
multiple zhang.
After a while, Zuo Mo shook his head as he climbed up and spat out the sand in his mouth. His
eyes were bright as he stared at the bells on the ground.
Such a powerful talisman!
If he did not possess the Great Day mo physique, he probably would have died right there. It was
the first time he saw such a strange sound-type talisman. Most sound-type talismans enchanted
the mind, and those that were stronger could directly attack the soul.
These mother and child bells could physically attack.
Strange! It was too strange!
Zuo Mo carefully picked up the mother and child bells, his consciousness prying into it. The best
way to understand a talisman was the use the consciousness to inspect it.
When his consciousness entered the copper bells, Zuo Mo felt his vision shift and was situated in
an empty space.
Countless complex and ancient seal scripts swam around him. They seemed to be alive as they
spun freely. Even if Zuo Mo could be considered to be knowledgeable, his head was dizzy when
he saw these seal scripts.
Not far from Zuo Mo was a round ball about the height of a person. It was made from dense
layers of complex seal scripts wrapped together. That was a jinzhi! How many jinzhi had people
put down over the big ball?!

Staring at the round ball covered in jinzhi, Zuo Mo suddenly became curious what was being
contained inside this round ball?
Was the thing inside this round ball of jinzhi perhaps the crux to controlling these bells? How
had the enormous force that had thrown him back been released? These seal scripts? Or what
was contained inside?
He was a bit uncertain, but he didnt dare to move rashly now. The seal scripts flying in the
surroundings were outside of his knowledge of the field. If he accidentally became trapped, he
was not certain that he could escape!
Withdrawing his consciousness from the copper bells, Zuo Mo still felt fear.
He couldnt make a good judgment about the grade of this talisman, but it definitely was above
fifth-grade. His intuition told him that it was very dangerous. Out of caution, Zuo Mo decided to
temporarily put it aside. The old Taoist that he had defeated probably hadnt understood how to
use it either.
Zuo Mos attention then landed on the mountain-shaped blue rock. When he held it, he was very
shocked.
It was very heavy!
This rock that was the size of his palm weighed a terrifying two thousand catties!
Zuo Mo instantly became excited. This was another powerful talisman. He couldnt help but
examine it. Countless seal characters could be seen on the surface of the mountain. They were as
thin as strands of hair, and displayed the extraordinary skill of the forger.
Zuo Mo channeled ling power into it.
On the surface of the blue rock were the words Evil Subduing in bright cinnabar. The small
mountain quickly grew to a height of five zhang.
Zuo Mos mind moved, his finger pointing upward as he shouted, Seal
The mountain suddenly appeared at the location that Zuo Mos finger was pointing to and
slammed down!
Boom!
The earth shook, and Zuo Mo was almost knocked down. The strong air wave carried the dust as
it swept past like a twister.
The entire camp was alarmed by such a loud noise, and many figures flew towards this place.
When everyone saw this blue mountain that was half buried in the ground and the spider-web
like cracks radiating outwards, they shouted in shock and were dumbstruck where they stood.
Hm, you can all go! Go! Im trying out new talismans!
Zuo Mo sent everyone away, ran to the little mountain and stared with intoxication at the
cinnabar red words Evil Subduing written on the surface.
Good treasure, very good treasure!
If this dropped down and hit, even a jindan xiuzhe would be turned into a pancake. Even if it just
brushed past, that would result in a broken limb at least.
This Evil Subduing Peak was a fifth-grade talisman and Zuo Mo could not stop caressing it.
Fifth-grade talismans had to have formation techniques. If it was this powerful when used
normally, he didnt know what the formation technique would look like.
He still put the Evil Subduing Peak back into the ring. The investigation of the formation
technique wouldnt be easy and would take a long time.
After two great talismans, Zuo Mos curiosity had been stirred to a peak. He was full of
anticipation towards the three jade scrolls that remained.
Taking out the jade scrolls, he read through them one by one.

The first jade scroll recorded the spell that the yellow-robed old Taoist had cultivated, [Heavy
Earth Spell]. It was a rare sixth-grade earth element spell. This was astounding to Zuo Mo.
Higher level spells belonging to the five element were very rare in the Kun Lun realm, as it was
dominated by sword xiu.
He quickly found the move that the yellow-robed old Taoist had used in Bright Water City. It was
called [Heavy Earth Restriction]. In an instant, it could manipulate the earth element power
under the ground and to produce a restrictive effect.
Other than this, it had many other abilities that made Zuo Mo afraid as he read.
If the other had not been careless today, and been trapped in close combat, it was hard to say who
would win. Jindan xiuzhe that were skilled in five element spells were completely different than
jindan sword xiu. Even though their attacks were not as powerful as sword xiu, but their moves
had more variation.
Zuo Mo decided that he had to practice the [Heavy Earth Spell]. His talent in the five elements
wasnt just a bit stronger than his talent in the sword.
The second jade scroll made Zuo Mos mind jump again. It recorded the imprinting and usage
instructions for the Evil Subduing Peak. Zuo Mo was entranced as he read and was extremely
joyful. This Evil Subduing Peak was made from one hundred and thirty thousand catties of thirdgrade Sky Blue Rock, and was processed hundreds of times to remove the impurities before
finally being reduced to ten thousand catties of the essence.
The jade scroll also recorded the formation techniques of the Evil Subduing Peak. The
description was so strong that Zuo Mos heart itched.
Evil Subduing Peak was a talisman like the [Heaven Turn Seal]. These types of talismans usually
were powerful, but had all kinds of weaknesses. For example, this Evil Subduing Peak had to be
held in the hand of the xiuzhe to be used. But it was a terrifying ten thousand catties heavy. Even
if it was not activated, it was still two thousand catties heavy. Those that had weak bodies did not
have the power to use it.
The yellow-robed old Taoist had possessed this Evil Subduing Peak for a long time, but due to
this restriction, he could only leave it in the corner of his ring.
But this was perfect for Zuo Mo. His Great Day mo physique was very strong. Not to mention
just two thousand catties, even if it was the full ten thousand catties, he could hold it up. If he
also practiced the [Heavy Earth Spell] and used the two together, the power would further
multiply.
The jade scroll also recorded how to process it further. Zuo Mo swept over it and put it back into
the ring to start reading the last jade scroll.
The last jade scroll was a jie map.
This jie map was bigger than the one Zuo Mo had copied from Rong Wei. This shocked Zuo Mo.
He guessed that the yellow-robed old Taoist had gotten this jie map from somewhere else and
this was not charted by himself.
There were more than five hundred jie marked on the jie map, including some jie that were in
very far away locations. Zuo Mo seemed to be able to trace the trips the maker of this jie map
had taken through his life. Many of the routes penetrated deep into obscure places.
The information written about each jie were also very detailed.
Zuo Mo couldnt help but feel respect. To have gone to so many places, this xiuzhe definitely had
been very powerful.
Following the jie map, Zuo Mo read the information on each jie one by one with interest.

When he found an intermediate jie called Cloud Sea Jie, a note written about it instantly made
him freeze where he stood.
At the deepest parts of the Water Cloud Sea, it is possible to hunt for Water Cloud Embryo
which has the ability to heal and nurture the soul.
Water Cloud Embryo!
Zuo Mo felt overjoyed. The previous talismans and spells could not make him as happy as this
piece of information!
Water Cloud Embryo was in Cloud Sea Jie!
Cloud Sea Jie!
Zuo Mos eyes were bright. He instantly found the position of Sky Water Jie and quickly found a
route that led to Cloud Sea Jie.
This was a very long route. The route passed through seven intermediate jie and twenty six small
jie. He had never thought there would be a day that he would need to go to so many places. But
he had no fear or timidity.
He needed to find Water Cloud Embryo and heal A Gui.
A Gui sat silently, Silly Bird, Lil Pagoda, and the others were surrounding her as they played
happily. Ever since A Gui had been injured, the terrifying presence around her had disappeared.
Silly Bird and the others did not fear her at all, and in reverse, they were very close to her.
Lil Fire liked to roll around on A Guis body, and Lil Black liked to hang on A Guis hair. Lil
Pagoda liked to circle around A Gui. What made Zuo Mo feel was the least believable was Silly
Bird. This bird, for some reason, was extremely good to A Gui, and was even willing to let A Gui
ride her.
This was a benefit Zuo Mo could not even imagine.
It might have been a delusion, but Zuo Mo felt that after having the four keep her company, A
Guis wooden face seemed to have a hint of life.
Zuo Mo looked at this scene and felt unusually warm.

Su Yue soullessly returned to the sect. The scene that occurred earlier in the day was still
affecting her mind. She had led the Hundred Flower Alliance for more than twenty years, and
saw every kind of scheme and plan. But it was the first time she had seen such a straightforward
and brutish battle!
It seemed that she was only suited to behind the scene tactics, she smiled mockingly.
Sitting down and taking a drink of ling tea, her spirit sudden felt slightly better.
At this time, a female disciple ran in a panic.
Sect Leader! Not good! Shimei was killed by Sky Number One, and he he ran away!
Su Yue smashed her teacup that she had raised to her lips to the ground, her eyes wide as she
lectured angrily, What are you standing there for? Go pursue him! You crowd of trash! If you
cant get him back, all of you dont need to come back!
Translator rambling: This was a chapter I typed up using my phone so the formatting might be a
bit iffy. I do frequently translate on the bus but when its crowded, I cant type on the computer
so the phone is my alternative.
As all of you have said, Pu Yao finally gets his golden core. Hes really desperate at this point.

Doesnt this chapter of Zuo Mo sighing over talismans bring back memories of being at Wu
Kong Mountain? Zuo Mo has greatly improved from the guy who couldnt haul his ling grains
up the mountain.
Cloud Sea Jie was also the place that manufactured the Cloud Formation Silk the Second Elder
of the Outer Hall used in battle. Zuo Mos plot armor is at work. The map he needed just
happened to drop into his lap, after some effort.
World of Cultivation Chapter Three Hundred and Ten The Past Grievances

This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.

Chapter Three Hundred and Ten The Past Grievances


Shu Long surveyed Guard Camp and saw everyone was working hard at their cultivation. He
couldnt help but have a satisfied expression. He knew very well how lacking their talent and
foundation was. Only hard work could make up for their shortcomings.
The Guard Camp was completely made up of xiu slaves. They had encountered countless
hardships, their personalities were resilient and exemplified persistence, and they were very
reliable. He would try to fulfill any of Pu Yaos demands, no matter no difficult, and urge the
others to meet the demands.
Over the span of a few months, the Guard Camp had comprehended the benefits from the
previous breakthrough and now their overall strength had risen a level. The black armor each
person wore was even more exquisite, and their shapes had slowly changed. There were now
slight differences on each persons armor. Some were broad, others were slender and
symmetrical, just like how people were very strong and others were nimble and speedy. After the
preliminary stages of cultivation, they had started to develop in different directions
This was an unavoidable result of the intermediate stages of cultivation. Any kind of spell or mo
skill would diverge this way.
As the one closest to Pu Yao, Shu Long received the most instruction from Pu Yao. No one could
rival his strength in Guard Camp. Even though he had not sparred against the experts from Sky
Peak Platoon, everyone secretly speculated that while Shu Longs strength could not match that
of Xie Shan and Ma Fan, he shouldnt be far from Nian Lu and Lei Peng.
Everyone underestimated him.
Mo skills were dangerous. The slightest carelessness and ones life would end and their soul
shattered. However, if one could overcome that, the speed of progression was not anything that
the xiuzhes ling cultivation or the yaos spiritual cultivation could rival. Shu Longs entire life

had been full of hardship and suffering. These experiences were like fertilizer to the [Hardship
Guard] mo skills. As a result his journey of cultivation was smooth and rapid.
Even though he was stern about urging everyone to cultivate, but his actual personality was
warm and disliked conflict. Cultivating the mo skill had recovered his youth, but his personality
had not changed. The laid-back attitude unique to middle-aged people showed itself on his body.
The camp that Guard Camp made was a long and narrow crescent that shielded almost all of the
camp.
A light suddenly flashed through Shu Longs eyes. He made a hand motion to the camp guard
beside him and then walked towards the outside of the camp. Outside the camp was a dense
forest. His ears were very sharp and he heard noise in the woods. There seemed to be many
people that were approaching them.
Dozens of camp guards tightly followed behind him.
The camp guards were wary but not nervous. After the battle of Golden Crow City, especially
after how dangerous and difficult the battle was, it was possible to see their improvement.
The sound from the woods became increasingly clear. This time, the other camps guards also
detected it. Everyone stared at the woods waiting for the appearance of the unwelcome guests.
Whoosh, a person covered in blood came out of the woods.
Shu Long was slightly surprised. However, when he saw the face of this person, his pupils
suddenly shrank.
A Wen!
When the camp guard beside him saw the person, he couldnt help but exclaim.
The person covered in blood heard the exclamation. His body shook, and he raised his head in
confusion.
A Wen, Heavens, is it really you?
A Wen, you are still alive!
Everyone was exceptionally excited. They all recognized this youth covered in blood. The eyes
of the youth were confused as he looked at this crowd of people dressed in black armor. Even
though he did not recognize them, but they gave him a feeling of familiarity.

We can talk later. Tian Mu, take A Wen to the back. Everyone else, prepare for battle! Shu
Longs voice was steady and methodical. His handsome face was serene, but a sharp cold light
flashed in the deepest part of his eyes.
When the youth heard the name Tian Mu, his entire body shook. He raised his head to look at
the large male in black armor in front of him. Tian Mu, Big Brother Tian Mu?
Tian Mu grinned, but it was slightly murderous. Little A Wen, Big Brother will help you beat
whoever bullies you!
A familiar voice and tone allowed the youth to truly believe that this unfamiliar large male in
front of him was really Big Brother Tian Mu. At the end of his strength, the youth fainted in Tian
Mus arms.
No one spoke, but threads of black energy came out everyones armor and wrapped around their
legs, waist, and wrists. Looking at A Wens terrible state, there seemed to be a ball of fire burning
in everyones chests.
Only Shu Long was motionless without any killing essence coming from his body.
Whoosh, whoosh, a crowd of female xiu charged out of the woods. At the same time, a crowd of
female xiu appeared in the sky.
When the leader of this group of female xiu saw Shu Long, she had a wary look. When she saw
A Wen in Tian Mus arms, her gaze became sharp and she said, Why had Sir taken this xiu slave
which has escaped from our sect?
When he saw this female, Shu Long could not control his killing essence any longer. Multiple
threads of black energy suddenly shot out of his body like fire and covered his body.
He recognized this face!
Bai Ru Fen. Of the females that had been in charge of the xiu slaves, this females temper had
been the worst. Just a little bit of unhappiness and she would vent on the xiu slaves. No less than
fifty of Shu Longs fellows had died at her hands.
Kill!
Shu Longs cold voice disappeared in the air. His figure also disappeared from where he stood.
The female disciples of Hundred Flower Alliance never thought the other side would act without
even exchanging words. With their guard down they were instantly at a disadvantage.

Not just Shu Long, but the other camp guards also recognized the female xiu in front of them and
their origins. Each of them had blood-filled eyes as their murderous aura grew.
Shu Long suddenly appeared next to Bai Ru Fen like a ghost. His right hand chopped and a black
energy sliced towards Bai Ru Fens white face like a blade. At the same time, a thread of black
energy flew from the tip of his foot and silently wrapped towards the others right leg.

Bai Ru Fen paled. The others first attack was a killing move that did not show any mercy.
Panicking, several balls of snowy-white plum blossom sword energies came from the flying
sword in her hand and shielded her.
However, the others were approaching too fast and collided heavily with the sword energies. Bai
Ru Fen was overjoyed, but when she saw the plum blossom sword energies passing through the
others body, her face turned snowy-white.
Not good, it was an afterimage!
Her foot was suddenly in great pain. She didnt even have the time to call out in pain when her
neck suddenly hurt. She suddenly felt the world in her vision spin. Then she saw a headless body
continuously sprouting fresh blood.

The wails echoed. When had the female xiu from the Hundred Flower Alliance ever experienced
such a bloody and murderous scene? In the midst of their terror, they lost their lives.
In the blink of an eye, corpses covered the ground!
The faces of the Hundred Flower Alliance xiuzhe were all pale. Many people uncontrollably
screamed and frantically fled.
Shu Long raised his head to look at the sky. He picked up a rock from the ground, his body
pulling back like a bow, and threw the rock hard.

Hummmmmmmmmmmm!
A soul-shaking howl suddenly sounded. The piece of rock penetrated a female xiu through the
heart and blood sprayed through the air.
This female xiu had forgotten to activate her ling armor as she had been too afraid.
Shu Longs throw frightened the other people into fleeing even faster.
Shu Long stopped his fellows that were preparing to give chase. The [Hardship Guard] mo skill
was powerful, but it had a flaw in that it was not good at flight. This weakness would only
disappear when they reached a much more profound stage in their cultivation.
Returning to the camp, the first thing Shu Long did was to report this incident to Zuo Mo. He
knew that this incident was very significant. This time, they had severely offended Hundred
Flower Alliance, and likely caused the start of a battle against Hundred Flower Alliance.
After Zuo Mo heard Shu Longs report, he did not give blame, but said, Was there anyone left
alive?
Shu Long stilled. There is one.
Go immediately to find where Hundred Flower Alliance is located. Zuo Mos expression was
stern. We will attack first, we cannot give them the time to recover. Otherwise, we will be in
danger.
Shu Long was shocked. He had originally assumed that Boss would blame them, but he hadnt
expected that Boss didnt assign any of the blame on them, and even decided to attack first. He
pressed his lips together and immediately turned around.
Gongsun Cha shook his head. This is great trouble.
The local powers of Bright Water City had been wary of so many of xiuzhe appearing. Now that
they had a conflict with Hundred Flower Alliance, the situation was extremely disadvantageous
to them.
Nothing to worry about, if we dont give them the time to react and finish the fight fast, we can
safely leave before everyone else reacts. Zuo Mo wasnt concerned.
You dont blame them? Gongsun Cha asked curiously. Shixiongs decisiveness was unexpected
to him.
I dont blame them. Zuo Mo shook his head, and said in a matter-of-fact voice, Shu Long and
the others are our people. They have a deep and bloody grievance against Hundred Flower

Alliance. Who do we help? Of course we help Shu Long. Also, the people wrong in this incident
isnt Shu Long and the others. If it was me, I would definitely have charged all the way to
Hundred Flower Alliance. However, hee hee, it isnt too late now!
The camp started to quickly move. No one panicked. Even the xiuzhe from the forging division
had calm faces. When they had set down camp, everyone had known that this would only be a
temporary camp. The majority of their possessions were still on the slave transporting boats, and
hadnt been moved to the camp which now saved them labor.
In two hours, everyone had boarded the slave transporting boats.
The five slave transporting boats slowly rose in the sky and flew into the southeastern part of
Bright Water City.
Such a big action naturally could not be concealed from the eyes of the local powers, and Zuo
Mo didnt plan on concealing it from them. His thought was very simple. With the fastest speed
possible, finish the battle! Their grievances with Hundred Flower Alliance could not be resolved.
A local power like Hundred Flower Alliance that was well rooted in this place could gather a
terrifying amount of support if they had enough time.
To the other powers, they were the outsider.
Zuo Mo displayed the decisiveness of a leader. He did not hesitate and decided to attack Hundred
Flower Alliance first.

Su Yue listened to the report with a dark face. She could have never thought this mysterious
power was so savage. They had attacked without giving an opportunity to speak as though they
had held a deep hatred.
She would never have guessed that the entire Guard Camp were xiu slaves they had transported
to Little Mountain Jie.
Now that the two sides had reached such a step, there was no room to negotiate.
She was wary of this mysterious troop but she wasnt afraid. As one of the largest powers in Sky
Water Jie, how could Hundred Flower Alliance stand being humiliated so?
How many of the elders are in the sect? she turned and asked one of her disciples.

Elder Wang, Elder Mei, and Elder Xiao are all present, the disciple instantly replied.
Su Yues heart was reassured. Invite them for a discussion. You shall personally go to ask.
Translator Ramblings: The foreshadowing had been strong in the last few chapters so the events
of this chapter should not be too much of a surprise.
Zuo Mo has only had a few chapters of peace. But even if Shu Long hadnt ignited this battle,
there is still tension because the locals of Sky Water Jie dont like the mass influx of refugees,
and especially not Zuo Mos faction who seem powerful and might upend the pecking order.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Eleven At The Door
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Three Hundred and Eleven At The Door
Elders Wang, Mei, and Xiao quickly hurried over.
What matter has Sect Leader in such a fuss? This old woman is slightly curious! Elder Meis
voice was piercing. Before she arrived, her voice could first be heard. Elder Meis face was
hideous and her temper was the most explosive. Of the three people, she had been the oldest
person when she reached jindan, and her composure was the worst among them.
Elder Wang was wearing a blue robe, her face friendly and had a cheerful smile. She looked very
friendly and approachable. Elder Xiaos eyes rippled with a seductive look. She was actually
even younger than Su Yue, and she was a peerless beauty.
Yes. Its rare that Sect Leader will call all three of us together. Has something major happened?
Elder Xiaos voice was sweet, endearing and alluring.
Elder Wang said warmly, If Sect Leader has a problem, please tell us. We receive benefits from
the sect daily, and wont refuse if it is time for us to help.
This disciple thanks the three elders! Su Yue bowed gracefully to the three elders, her attitude
respectful. The biggest reason that she was in charge of Hundred Flower Alliance was that she
had the support of the three elders. The three elders calmly received the bow and did not refuse.
After standing up, Su Yue narrated what had happened today.
Sky Number One. Based on our sects tradition, he shouldnt be lower than sixth-grade. Elder
Xiao was slightly surprised.
Seventh-grade, Su Yue said and then continued, This xiu slave called A Wen is exceptional
and of rare innate talent. He first caught our attention, when he showed himself in a group of
fourth-grade xiu slaves. This disciple then put him among a group of fifth-grade xiu slaves. In an
extremely short amount of time, he outcompeted them. Just a while ago, he won out of a group
of sixth-grade xiu slaves. This disciple had been preparing to send him to Elders after some more
time. No matter if it is as a slave soldier, or as a living cauldron, it would be very beneficial.

Elder Xiaos eyes lit up as she laughed lightly. Jiejie cannot steal from me. This meimei just
needs a good cauldron, and I can break through the stage of first stratum.
Hmph, this old one has no interest in xiu slaves, Elder Mei said coldly.
Elder Wang smiled and said, Then I will wish for Meimei to break through first stratum soon.
Maybe Meimei will be the first one among us to first break through to the level of first stratum.
Meimei thanks Jiejie! Elder Xiaos expression was blissful.
But this Master of Golden Crow City could grasp Old man Xue, he is not to be dismissed,
Elder Wang said gravely.
What are you afraid of? Hmph! They really dont want to live! Elder Mei sneered coldly. He
should be a body cultivator, the probability of him being a dhyana xiu is the highest. At that time,
get Xiao Xiao to go. Her [Sky Flower Fall] is perfect for dealing with those people.
Good, good! Elder Xiao laughed prettily as she clapped her hands with a light smile. She was
receiving the most benefits this time, and naturally was willing to put in more effort.
Do they have any other jindan? Elder Wang asked.
No. This disciples personally saw them, and did not find any other jindan, Su Yue said
confidently.
Dont even have a jindan and they dare to be so arrogant, they are looking for death! Elder Mei
said hatefully.
A disciple suddenly stumbled in. Sect Leader! Someone someone has attacked us
Su Yu was suspicious that she had heard it wrong. Someone had attacked them?
They dare! Elder Mei was infuriated. This old one will use them to make dan! As her words
landed, she stomped her feet and disappeared. The other two elders had unfriendly expressions as
they disappeared at the same time.

Zuo Mo looked at the mountain valley below. Hundreds of flowers were blooming, red and
purple, to form a beautiful sea of flowers. Even in the air, it was possible to smell the fragrance.
This place was the base of Hundred Flower Alliance, Hundred Flower Valley. Hundred Flower
Valley produced all kinds of valuable ling flowers. The flower type talismans and lingdan that
they forged were were deeply liked by female xiu and easy to sell in the market.
Zuo Mo was just going to give the order to attack when three female xiu suddenly appeared in
the air.
Jindan!
Three jindan!
Zuo Mo was not surprised by the appearance of jindan. If an enormous sect did not have several
jindan, that would be a joke. Compared to Little Mountain Jie when he had felt hopeless at the
mention of a jindan, the halo around jindan had disappeared. Jindan were just xiuzhe that were
slightly more powerful than ningmai. There was nothing major. After meeting more of them, he
could even give a general judgment on how powerful a jindan was.
Unfamiliar the first time, familiar the second. Fighting against jindan wasnt an exception.
Zuo Mo compared the three jindan in front of him with Clear Sky Old Forefather and felt they
were very lacking. He couldnt help but sigh inside at the power of Clear Sky Old Forefather.
The jindan that he had successively met were all a far cry from Clear Sky Old Forefather. It
seemed that while they were all jindan, the skill level difference was large.

Thinking back to it, the strength of Wu Kong Sword Sect wasnt just strong. Xin Yan Shishu
wasnt lacking in power compared to Clear Sky Old Forefather.

Su Yue quickly appeared behind the three elders. When she saw Zuo Mo, she instantly became
furious. She shouted harshly, Golden Crow City Master! You have gone too far! To say nothing
of stealing this sects xiu slave, you actually attack our sect? You really think that my Hundred
Flower Alliance has no one?
The three elders didnt know who had come but when they heard the person in front of them was
the Master of Golden Crow City, they were all angry.
Elder Meis temper was the most explosive as she shouted, You are seeking death! The Heaven
has a road that you dont walk, Hell has no door but you come! Little bastard, if I dont destroy
your soul today, this old one isnt called Mei!
Zuo Mo rolled his eyes. The other was not polite so he naturally wouldnt be polite. He spat and
said scornfully, Old Fart, your mommy is calling you to brush your teeth!
Elder Mei exploded and disappeared in the sky. This old one will tear your mouth!
Woooooooooooooooooooosh!
More than ten figures charged towards the empty space in front of Zuo Mo like sharp arrows!
The fifteen members of Sky Peak Platoon drew out fifteen crisscrossing straight lines like an
enormous net which covered the area thirty zhang in front of Zuo Mo! This enormous net
seemed to suddenly explode. Countless sword essences were like multi-colored lines that howled
with a soul-shaking sound as they filled the holes in the net.
Fifteen different kinds of sword essence filled the multi-colored net with a dangerous presence.
Elder Wang and Elder Xiaos faces were heavy, and Su Yues expression changed slightly. Sword
essence! Fifteen xiuzhe who had comprehended sword essence! In the entire Hundred Flower
Alliance, other than the elders, there were just eight people among the disciples that had
comprehended sword essence.
The other side just sent out fifteen people that were all xiuzhe who comprehended sword essence.

Gongsun Chas expression was shy, and ignorant of the fact his eyes had turned bright red. He
was very excited!
Jindan!
In the battle at Golden Crow City against Clear Sky Old Forefather, the Vermillion Bird Camp
that he was in command off didnt have any use at all. To Gongsun Cha who looked shy on the
surface, but was proud inside, it was a great humiliation!
Facing a jindan straight on this time, how could he not be excited?
The moment the large net took form, his eyes suddenly narrowed and flashed with the light of
the hunter closing the next. He quickly spat out two words.
Second Division!

Elder Mei charged headfirst into this enormous net. While these sword essence could not form
tangible danger to her, they still put her in her a sorry state. She had been somewhat careless and
did not activate her ling armor. When she found where she stood was filled with sword energies,
she finally activated the ling shield.
Pia pia pia!
Three sword energies struck her ling shield. The shield only shook slightly, but her expression
was very terrible. She felt she had lost face.
Anger exploding, she screamed piercingly, and a plum branch appeared in her hand.
This glistening plum was about three chi in length. It was old and flexible, the flowers on the
branches were in full bloom. Elder Mei waved it slightly. The tender pedals left the plum tree and
flew with the wind. In a moment, the plum flowers rained down and managed to cover all of Sky
Peak Platoon.
It was a dreamy realm of flowers but a sharp sound howled. Like the tide, the beautiful flower
petals became shrap. Every petal contained sharp sword essence.
The dream realm instantly became hell.
It was Elder Meis killing move, [Plum Sacrifice]!
Elder Xiaos eyes flashed as she laughed prettily. Mei Jiejie really is going overboard. What
reason is there to use a killing move just as the fight is starting? We cant even get a drink of
soup.
Elder Wang praised, Elder Mais sword essence has become purer. This [Plum Sacrifice] is
multiple times stronger than last time.
Su Yue was entranced. As Elder Mei attacked, the other side instantly disappeared in this
beautiful yet treacherous flower sea.
The people of Sky Peak Platoon knew the danger. Their expressions changing, everyone
retreated.
Flee? Not so simple! Elder Mei felt unspeakably good as she said hatefully. The spell on her
hands changed again.
Her mind suddenly stuttered, a feeling of danger rising. She instantly was shocked. At this time,
the air around her suddenly shook lightly, the sky full of flowers imperceptibly paused.
At some unknown time, a troop had charged to within thirty zhang of her.
Such fast speed!
Her eyes shrank. The other came quickly like a shining blade that made her feel that she could
not stand under its sharpness!
Elder Mei was suddenly enraged .The other side was just a charge of more than one hundred
people yet she actually had felt fear. It was too embarrassing! As she turned the plum tree in her
palm, the sky full of falling flowers seemed to be carried by the wind to move towards the troop
coming towards her.
The sharp flower petals were like soul-snatchers, and the wind pillar that carried them was
undoubtedly a meat grinder!
This fight is over! Elder Wang said lightly. Even if she was the one facing Elder Meis move,
she would not be able to escape without injury. Both Su Yue and Elder Xiao did not doubt her
words.
Yet what they never had thought was the other side did not retreat but charged straight at Elder
Mei!

Wei Ran felt the battle intent in his body had reached a peak, and his speed had risen to a peak!
In order to increase their speed to the maximum, Lil Miss had arranged a position near the back
for them.
Facing the meat-grinding pillar of wind, Wei Ran showed no fear.
Every xiuzhe of Vermillion Bird Camp believed that when their speed was at maximum, when
they completed their charge, no enemy could stop them!
This wasnt something that Lil Miss forced onto them, but a belief born from multiple battles!
Wei Ran raised the flying sword in his hand. His fellows raised the flying sword in their hands at
the same time!
He suddenly glared angrily, and shouted, Hundred Kill!
The flying sword in his hand sliced forward with all his power.
Everyone in Second Division shouted at the same time, Hundred Kill!
The flying sword in their hands sliced forward with all their power!
The sword energies were like streams meeting at the sea, one hundred swords becoming one. A
gigantic sword energy three zhang wide rang deeply as it flashed blindingly and collided with the
pillar of wind!
Translator Ramblings: I like how Zuo Mo feels confident in taking on three jindan and a whole
sect at once just after killing one jindan after a long period of planning, and then capturing and
subduing another jindan. I like how both Zuo Mo and Gongsun Cha reflected on and changed
their tactics after learning how jindan work.
The subject of slaves was first mentioned way back when Zuo Mo was listening to the sound
tablet. Jingshi mines are obviously important and so in this world where the strongest devours
the weak, Luo Lis actions are sanctioned by the sect. Remember how callous the paper crane
girl was with Zuo Mos life? Powerful people do not care about slaves, which are the lowest
level of society. Zuo Mo was lucky to have been picked up by the sect leader and remained free.
Zuo Mo is very pragmatic. He was scared by the bloodshed done by Luo Li but his opinion was
that he could not do anything as he was such an insignificant person and he was already dealing
with his own troubles.You may have to say that both of them fall on the selfish side as Luo Li
acted to put down a rebellion that affected his responsibilities while Zuo Mo is trying to
maximize the use of xiu slaves. He enslaved people in Little Mountain Jie in order to survive,
and he only gave them freedom because he could not afford to feed them all. Hes heading
towards Hundred Flower Alliance because this affects his own interests and he understands what
Shu Long and the others are feeling.
On the other hand, he doesnt exactly fall in line with the other people. If you look at these
jindan elders, they treat slaves like merchandise or objects. Zuo Mo doesnt do that, and his
kindness, in direct contrast to how people treat those below them like Luo Li once did to Wei
Sheng and Hao Min to Zuo Mo, is enough for Shu Long and the others to feel grateful and swear
loyalty.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Twelve Zuo Mos Fury
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Three Hundred and Twelve Zuo Mos Fury

Boom!
Everyones vision flashed, the burning light stabbing peoples eyes to the point they couldnt
remain open.
Elder Meis sleeves were torn, her hair loose, and a thin stream of blood was coming out the
corner of her mouth. She looked in terror at the group of more than one hundred people in front
of her. What what sword scripture was this
She had seen sword scriptures that were combined in an attack together before, but she had never
heard of sword scripture that combined attacks of more than one hundred people much less seen
it with her eyes. Combined sword scripture attacks demanded high cooperation between the
xiuzhe. The more people there were, the less likely it was that it would succeed. A combined
sword scripture attack of more than one hundred people was something that could not be
imagined.
As a jindan, she could only retreat when facing such a terrifying blow.
Looking at the troop that was slightly disorganized in front of her, it was like she had seen a
ghost.

Wei Rans body was empty of power. Not just him, but every one of his fellows were panting
heavily. But every persons face was filled with battle intent and pride! Jindan, jindan, so what!
Wei Ran was so excited he wanted to howl. To wound a jindan with one blow. This was
something they would never even dare to think about in the past, but it happened right in front of
their eyes now! But he forcibly suppressed the excitement and battle tremors inside. He had not
forgotten his duty.
Scatter!
Like a tide, the xiuzhe of Second Division suddenly divided down the middle.

Elder Mei was shocked and uncertain, but when her gaze landed on the passageway made by the
opening, her expression changed dramatically!
A light and deep vibrating sound was like the deep bark of an ancient beast.
Another hundred people!
A charge just like the previous one!
Elder Wang and Elder Xiaos complexions changed. Elder Mei was in danger! The two did not
dare to be careless. The mysterious Master of Golden Crow City had subordinates of such
power! Just a short exchange but it was coordinated and flawless. From the beginning, Elder Mei
had landed in the others formation.
The enormous sword energy net made by the fifteen xiuzhe that comprehended sword essence
had only one goal slow down Elder Mei!
A jindan that lost their speed instantly became fragile when facing a strong troop that could
complete a combined sword scripture attack of over one hundred people. The two also found to
their shock that the Master of Golden Crow City didnt just have this one troop under his
command. Also, the other didnt give Elder Mei any chance to breath. Their attacks were like
waves, one wave after another.
If this continued, Elder Mei would become a fish on the others chopping block.

The two understood the dangers of the situation. At this time, they couldnt attend to anything
else, but leapt over. They only needed to create a chance for Elder Mei to breath, and the scales
of battle would become balanced again.
Kill!
A cold and slightly old voice suddenly rang beside Elder Wangs ears.
A feeling of danger floated onto her mind. She was very shocked, her figure disappearing from
her spot.
A black snake the thickness of a water barrel viciously swept across the position she had just
been at.
Elder Wang looked gravely at the troop that had ambushed her. A slave transporting boats deck
was filled with standing black-armored xiuzhe! Heavy armor xiuzhe? Puzzlement floated into her
mind. The clumsy heavy armor had long been eliminated by history. She felt it was
incomprehensible that a heavy-armor troop had appeared in front of her.
However, she was not careless. The thick black snakes coiling above their heads made her sense
danger.
Darkness, killing, sharpness
Her gaze landed on the young black-armored xiuzhe at the very front. She could feel the battle
intent in the others eyes, and killing intent that was so thick it could not be resolved!

Zuo Mo stopped Elder Xiao.


Hee hee, handsome guy, why have you stopped me? Elder Xiao laughed prettily. The snowy
and fine hand lightly covered the warm and red lips, and was unspeakably seductive.
Zuo Mo became super alert. His attitude might have been relaxed when he had been swearing
back at Elder Mei, but when he truly faced a jindan, he still felt slightly nervous. He didnt say
anything, but stared tightly at the other. Different to earlier, any speech was useless.
If you keep looking me, I will be embarrassed! Elder Xiaos eyes moved with allure.
Zuo Mo did not react, but he didnt understand. If it was something like swearing at each other,
he could understand. But did the woman have some scheme to be talking like this? He became
increasingly wary. He didnt waste words, one hand pulling and the other drawing.
Two yang fiendish hard lightning bolts left his hands.
You are so harsh to attack me. If I get wounded, could you bear it?
The sweet and seductive voice floated in the air. Elder Xiaos exceptional body flickered in and
out of view in the air. The snowy and smooth skin, the high twin peaks, the eyes, they all
unconsciously attracted all attention.
Zuo Mo was puzzled. Could bear it? Why couldnt he bear it?
The hard lightning on his hands continued to bomb towards the other like rain.
With a pretty bell-like laugh left behind in the air, Elder Xiaos figure was flickering in the air.
The air seemed to have a new addition of a sweetly fragrant and tempting smell.
Zuo Mo had a headache. The others movement method was very powerful. He couldnt even
touch the others clothing.
The sweetness in the air entered Zuo Mos nose. He suddenly felt strangely heated and frantic.
The speed of the hard lightning increased, but no matter how fast they were, no hard lightning
could even brush the other.
He did not notice that a blush had unknowingly came onto his cheeks.

But Elder Xiao noticed it, and she rejoiced inside. Her expression became even more seductive,
and her movements even more tempting. The air became even more heated. But at this time, she
heard a second grunt from Elder Mei. Her heart shook. She knew if she could not finish the battle
quickly, Elder Mei would die today.
Also, to capture the bandits, first capture the leader. If she could capture the Master of Golden
Crow City, this fight would be finished, and no one could fight against them for Sky Number
One.
Thinking about this, she could not stop herself. She giggled, Little villain, come get close to
Jiejie! The snake-like waist lightly twisted, the clothing on her body flew like flower petals.
But her expression held an unusual sincerity.
[Sky Flower Fall]!

An unknown length of time later.


It was like waking up from a long dream.
Where was this? Zuo Mo opened his eyes and examined the surroundings
Countless flower petals were falling down. Among the rain of flowers, beautiful bodies flickered
out of view. Some were lazy, others innocent. They were all beautiful. Every moment and every
look could stir the most basic desire of a person.
The scene in front of him was so real that one could not take themselves away.
Boss!
They walked in front of Zuo Mo, and bowed to Zuo Mo. The curvaceous bodies revealed large
patches of snowy white of the front chest, and made one have the impulse to reach into it.
Where is this? Zuo Mo instinctively asked.
The females all had puzzled expressions. One of the female stood out. Boss, this is your home!
At this time, Zuo Mo finally noticed the flower under his feet was completed tiled in jingshi. Not
just so, the yard, the benches, and the pond were all made from jingshi. Clitter-clatter ran from
the pond, it was all jingshi inside.
The entire yard was made from jingshi!
So much jingshi!
Zuo Mos heart had never been so satisfied. Was this really his home?
Boss, let this servant serve you! A servant said with embarrassment. The tight long dress
revealed all of her body. What made Zuo Mo want to spit blood was that the dress had a slit up to
her waist and the inside was tantalizing.
Hee hee, let us serve you!
The females in the surroundings giggled and came up to help Zuo Mo change clothes.
Zuo Mo jumped in fright. What were they doing? Why did they have to take off his clothes?
Seeing the situation, the females giggled even more.
Boss is embarrassed!
Yes! Its so cute!
Then we can undress first!
En, en!
As Zuo Mo gaped, the females untied their dresses and revealed their perfect bodies, and looked
with embarrassment or seductiveness at Zuo Mo.
It was enough for one to spit blood!

Zuo Mo felt his nose heat up, but he suddenly seemed to feel the scene in front of him was
slightly familiar.
He seemed to have seen it before
Oh, where had he seen it before?
As he thought, Zuo Mos body suddenly froze as though he was hit with a bolt of lightning. In an
instant, his face was a mix of green and red. He was furious, swearing as he pointed at the
females Illusory formations! You group of illusory formations!
He finally remembered where he had seen this before!
Wu Kong Mountain, the pink paper crane!
That damned pink paper crane had once used a similar move against him, but he had seen
through it then!
An illusory formation that was almost the exact same!
The anger inside erupted.
In the past, the paper crane female had did that to ge, ge couldnt defeat her, ge endured it! You
dare to use this move to trick ge? Ge wont tolerate it! The new grievance and the old hate mixed
together, especially when Zuo Mo recalled his sorry state in the past, the anger in his heart
burned even brighter.
Ge hates illusory formations the most!
Zuo Mo gritted his teeth and brimmed with killing intent.
Pia pia pia!
The naked beauties in front of him suddenly turned into balls of smoke. Before he could react,
everything around him exploded into smoke.
Inside the thick smoke was Zuo Mos tragic wail, Jingshi! My jingshi!
The scenery around him changed and Zuo Mo seemed to wake from a dream. Air, he was still in
the air, empty air!
Zuo Mos eyes instantly turned red. He felt his heart was dripping blood. Jingshi, so much
jingshi, all gone! He, who had felt so rich just, now felt great sorrow rise in his heart and
stimulate him.
If it was said that illusory formations made him remember his tragic previous days, and made
him feel fury, then losing so much jingshi suddenly could not simply be described by fury.
Grievance! Deep hatred! Hatred that one side could not survive!
Blood seeped out of Elder Xiaos mouth. [Sky Flower Fall] was invisible as it corroded the mind
and was wondrous in its powerful, but if it was broken, her mind would be heavily wounded.
Even more importantly, she still did not understand how the Master of Golden Crow City had
recognized and broken [Sky Flower Fall].
The [Sky Flower Fall] that had never failed before was defeated at the hands of a ningmai youth.
She still could not believe it now.
This wasnt possible!
Zuo Mo did not care for the shock and puzzlement the other felt. His eyes were filled with blood
and his shout like thunder!
Give all the jingshi back to me!
The first transformation of the Great Day mo physique suddenly materialized!
Translator Ramblings: Poor Zuo Mo, his education was skewed by a powerful female xiuzhe, one
pervrse renyao and one shy Lil Miss. So all beautiful and naked women are illusory formations.
The paper crane girl really gave Zuo Mo a lesson he will always remember.

Elder Meis surname is literally plum so she is Plum and wields a plum tree.

Hundred and Thirteen Serpent
Transformation
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom and warlord212.
Chapter Three Hundred and Thirteen Serpent Transformation
A blurry golden shadow appeared behind Zuo Mos back. The shadow had a very indistinct
shape. It was like an enormous golden cloud that moved behind Zuo Mos body.
What was that
Elder Xiao was filled with uncertainty and she felt the youth in front of her was filled with
strangeness. [Sky Flower Fall] was based on appearances and was completely the opposite of
normal illusory formations. Normal illusory formations used external forces to shake the mind
of xiuzhe while [Sky Flower Fall] woke the innate desires of the xiuzhe. A Dhyana xius Samadhi
gave them strong minds and the possibility of them being enchanted was much lower than other
xiuzhe.
But benefits always came with disadvantages.
Dhyana xiu had strong minds, but their convictions also had to be strong as well. Spells like [Sky
Flower Fall] exploited this and were amazingly effective against them. Only when the dhyana
xiu could cultivate to the higher stage of Great Freedom and let go of their convictions would
spells like [Sky Flower Fall] lose their effect.
But the stage of Great Freedom was a very profound level. The dhyana xiu which reached such a
level would all be great powers, and wouldnt appear in a little place like Sky Water Jie, much
less a ningmai twenty-something year old youth reaching such a level.
The [Sky Flower Fall] that had never failed before had been ineffective. Under the backlash of
the illusion, her mind was injured. Up until now, she still did not know how Zuo Mo had seen
through it, and what that Return all the jingshi to me meant.
Also, this indistinct cloud
was eerie, and mysterious. A strong feeling of danger made her heart beat rapidly. Her
knowledge naturally wasnt ordinary for her to have cultivated to jindan, but she had never heard
of such a strange and weird golden shadow before.
The golden shadow moved as though it was alive.
In the blink of an eye, it collapsed towards its center and rapidly shrank.
A pair of half-transparent golden wings appeared on Zuo Mos back.
Great Day Mo Physique, first transformation, Light Void Wings!

The Guard Camp that Shu Long was leading was engaged in heavy combat with Elder Wang at
this time. Elder Wang learned from Elder Meis example and continuously changed her position
to maintain the initiative. However, Shu Long wasnt dumb and did not attack first. He securely
held his position to cut off any opportunity for Elder Wang to give aid to Elder Mei. The Crow

Fiend Mo Kill Formation was in motion. After breaking through last time, the Little Mo Kill
could be used with ease.
Threads of black energy turned to thick chains that formed an enormous net to block the path of
Elder Wang.
This way, no one could gain an advantage over the other.

Hundred Kill!
The shouts of one hundred people shook like thunder. A gigantic sword and the flower petal wind
collided. Elder Mei suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. Two branches on the plum branch in
her hand snapped. The tree was filled with cracks and only had five branches left.
The ling power of Elder Mei was almost running out of her control and boiled like water. The
other side did not give her any chance to recover.
The deep sound sounded at her ears like a nightmare again.
Elder Wangs expression was heavy, the warmth it usually held had disappeared and was
replaced by killing intent. She knew that she could not keep tangling with this group of people.
Elder Mei had reached the end of her strength, and did not have the power to even continue for
fifteen minutes.
A thread of regret came into her heart. The power of the Master of Golden Crow City was much
stronger than they had imagined!
Before today, they had never thought there would be a day where they would be left so
dishevelled and sorry-looking due to a group of ningmai. It was just a group of ningmai. No
matter how high their numbers, they never even considered ningmai as a serious threat.
From the moment they became jindan, they had the qualifications to look down at ningmai.
This conviction was shattered by the cruel reality of today.
At this moment, she did not hope for victory, but only hoped that the three of them could survive.
As long as the three of them could survive, the Hundred Flower Alliance would continue to exist.
If the three of them were no longer here, even if the Master of Golden Crow City did not deal the
final blow, the other powers of Bright Water City would swallow Hundred Flower Alliance.

Shu Long looked coldly at the other. He knew the other was going to go all out.
He did not feel any fear, even though the other was a jindan. They were the cause of this battle.
They had more reason than any other person to put their lives on the line.
Xiu slavery had existed for a long time, and was common in every jie. Shu Long knew this
reality. He was not so delusional as to hope that Daren could save all the xiu slaves and change
the situation. That was not realistic. Daren had not blamed them, and even took everyone to
attack Hundred Flower Alliance. Shu Long decided to put his life on the line.
It wasnt just for A Wen, but more for themselves, and himself.
He didnt feel any fear at the others decision to go all out, but felt slightly excited.
Elder Wang took out a Begonia Palace Lantern. A blue-white flame lightly jumped inside the
lantern. As the Begonia Palace Lantern was taken out, the air around it paused for a short
moment. After a while, a even more strange scene occurred. The air around Elder Wang started
to jump in rhythm with the pulsing of the blue-white flame.

Elder Wangs figure started to blur in the air.


Shu Longs pupils imperceptibly shrank. This Begonia Palace Lantern was a powerful talisman!
He raised his right hand covered in black armor. His right hand was completely enveloped in a
ball of thick black energy. As the wind blew past, the black energy flickered like a wisp of flame.
The people of Guard Camp silently raised their right hands. A ball of thick black energy encased
everyones right hand.
The black snakes that coiled above their heads suddenly shattered and turned to tiny threads of
black energy. These black energies gathered together with astounding speed and formed a black
snake a hundred zhang long! The body of this black snake was completely tangible, with all of
its muscles and scales intact as though it was alive. The red snake pupils did not hold emotions.
It opened its maw and bared its white fangs as it breathed in. The black fire in the sky and the
black energies that encased Shu Long and the others right hands were sucked into the sky and
into the black snakes mouth.
Woo-ha!
The deep long wail was like an invisible wind that swept in all directions.
Having absorbed the black fire, the black snake quickly transformed. Two bumps formed on its
forehead. The snakes pupils became even sharper, the scales even blacker and shinier, and the
presence even more astonishing!
Elder Wang was even more shocked. This black-armor troop had very strange battle methods and
was completely different from any type of xiuzhe she had seen before.
But she recognized the change in the black snake, Serpent Transformation!
Snakes and serpents had an innate difference and that was also true of their strength. This black
snake that had not finished its transformation into a serpent still exuded a completely superior
strength than just a moment ago. Its pupils seemed able to drain away all warmth. Elder Wangs
heart tightened.
Waves of warmth came from the Begonia Palace Lantern. Her heart eased slightly. Yes, the black
snake was astonishing, but the Begonia Palace Lantern in her hand was not ordinary.
She was skilled in forging and especially skilled in making all kinds of flower lanterns. This
hexagonal Begonia Palace Lantern was her masterpiece. The begonias used in the lantern were
sixth-grade Sky Heart Begonias, one of the best types of begonias in the world. The rarest was
the blue-white flame inside the palace lantern. It came from the center of a Ten Thousand Year
Blue Fire Bamboo. It was called Blue Heart Bamboo Flame, and was a rare specimen among
fourth-grade fires.
Without another word, she raised the Begonia Palace Lantern in her hand and chanted in a low
voice.
The petals of the Begonia Palace Lantern fell off and flew into the sky. It seemed that there was
an endless amount of flower petals, yet the lantern did not change at all. The begonia flower
petals danced in the sky. In the blink of an eye, the sky was full of flower petals like a dream.
Compared to the plum blossoms of Elder Mei, the number of begonia flower petals were even
more amazing. There seemed to be no end. All of Hundred Flower Valley was covered within it.
The black snake ignored the rain of flower petals. The black body coiled as its red pupils coldly
stared at Elder Wang.
The flame of the Begonia Palace Lantern suddenly jumped. Boom, the flower petals in the sky
simultaneously started to burn. Countless blue-white flames danced in the sky.
Blue Heart Bamboo Flame!
Bzzzt!

A bloom of Blue Heart Bamboo Flame landed on the shiny body of the black snake, bounced
twice, and was extinguished. The black snake did not seem to detect it.
Elder Wangs expression changed!
The Blue Heart Bamboo Flame was actually ineffective!
The Blue Heart Bamboo Flame which could burn through everything could not even leave a
mark on the body of the black snake!
The icy eyes of the black snake had no emotion. It was made from pure and sharp killing
essence. Was it something a measly Blue Heart Bamboo Flame could damage?
Light flashed through Shu Longs eyes. He shouted in a low tone, Kill!
The pupils of the black snake suddenly opened, its enormous body twisting and jumping to
charge at Elder Wang.
Elder Wang was shocked and hurriedly spun the Begonia Palace Lantern in her hand. Countless
blooms of Blue Heart Bamboo Flame blew towards the black snake.
Pia pia pia!
The sounds were like the popping of beans.
Each of the Blue Heart Bamboo Flames were the size of a thumb but its was unexpectedly
strong. The enormous body of the black snake was forced to bend down.
Elder Wang released a breath. It was good as long as there was a way to stop the other. She
channelled her ling power furiously, and countless flower petals flew into the air. However, the
flower petals this time were not tender and weak like they were with the last attack. They were
like the sharpest blades with a keen sword essence as they swam around the body of the black
snake.
Pew pew pew!
Scratches appeared on the black snakes shiny body. The black snake felt pain and furiously
twisted its body.
Yet the Blue Heart Bamboo Flame was endless as it bombed the black snake with no signs of
ending.
A fine layer of sweat appeared on Shu Longs head. His expression was calm, but he was
unusually furious. A moment of carelessness, and the other had taken the advantage. How could
he tolerate being suppressed? So what if the talisman was powerful?
A cold energy flashed through his eyes.
Little Mo Kill!
The black snake suddenly collapsed and turned to a ball of black energy. The center of the black
energy spun rapidly.
The Blue Heart Bamboo Flame and the begonia sword essence covering the sky seemed to be
attracted by an invisible force, and uncontrollably flew towards the spinning black energy.
Elder Wangs expression changed dramatically.
The suction of the spinning black energy was shocking. The Blue Heart Bamboo Flame and the
begonia sword essence furiously flew towards the black energy whirlpool.
What terrified her was that this black energy whirlpool was like a monster that could consume
everything. It had not changed at all after so much Blue Heart Bamboo Flame and begonia sword
essences had flown in.
The situation was becoming increasingly worse. A sharp look came into her eyes. She snorted
coldly. For the first time, the Begonia Palace Lantern left her hand and flew into the sky.

Translator Ramblings: So having convictions is a double-edged sword. Some of you were so


close with your dhyana xiu speculations on immunity to illusions. What is hardest to resist? Your
innermost desires.
On the same topic, Zuo Mos desires are apparently beautiful women and jingshi. Someone
mentioned that Zuo Mo has no libido.He must not have any mental libido because his body does
react to what he sees. So he desires beautiful women but he doesnt think about them sexually.
Jindan arrogance is in shown here again. First the yellow-robed Taoist and now these three. This
actually shows how Clear Sky Old Forefather is a cut above them. He planned for the event of
his death before his battle, and didnt have confidence obscuring his mind to the point these
jindan do.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Fourteen Successive Mo Kill
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom and warlord212.
Chapter Three Hundred and Fourteen Successive Mo Kill
Fourth-grade talismans and above generally had formation techniques that accompanied them,
and as the grade increased, the number of formation techniques a talisman possessed would also
increase. For example, the majority of fourth-grade talismans had only one formation technique.
Only the finest of fourth-grade talismans would have two formation techniques. Fifth-grade
talismans would have between two to four formation techniques, and sixth-grade talismans
would have between four to six formation techniques.
The formation techniques could utilize the talismans power to its maximum potential. Each
additional formation technique was one more killing move.
No one would scorn having more killing moves.
At this time, Elder Wang understood that normal attacks would be ineffective against the people
in front of her.
How long has it been since she used a killing move? Elder Wangs thoughts wandered. After she
had cultivated to jindan, she concentrated on her study of forging, and never fought again. She
had never expected the first battle for her as a jindan would result in her being pushed to such a
dangerous position!
Gathering her thoughts, the Begonia Palace Lantern in the sky slowly revolved. Each flower
petal flashed with a glowing light. The pulsing Blue Heart Bamboo Flame was like a heart and
stirred the ling energy in the surrounding area to pulse with it.

Zuo Mos consciousness was the largest and he was the first to detect the abnormality. He
couldnt help but feel shocked.
This Begonia Palace Lantern was definitely not below the sixth-grade. The power of a sixthgrade talisman in the hands of a jindan would be terrifying.
Elder Xiao also detected it. She was very stunned. Elder Wang was going all out!
For some reason, when she knew that Elder Wang was going all out, she didnt feel any
excitement, but felt fear instead. The pressure that the youth with the half-transparent golden
wings gave her seemed to increase in that moment.

Zuo Mo sensitively detected that Elder Xiaos attention wavered. An opportunity! Light flashed
through his eyes and his body disappeared.
Elder Xiaos heart suddenly jumped, the pink flying sword in her hand rising. Multiple sword
energy shields appeared in the space beside her. Before she saw the results, she retreated, but the
feeling of danger suddenly rose. Out of shock, her flying sword sliced towards her back.
Ping!
An enormous force drove into her from the flying sword. Her entire right arm went numb, and
her flying sword was ripped from her hand.
She bit down on her lips. Not daring to stop at all, her figure successively flashed.
A cold essence flashed behind her back, and carried a spray of blood with it.
She panted heavily, and looked with astonishment at the youth in the distance. The back of her
right hand was bleeding, and there was a curved wound on her back. She had been wounded
twice by a ningmais attack!
She looked at Zuo Mo as though she was looking at a monster.
Her gaze landed on the half-transparent golden wings on Zuo Mos back and furiously trying to
determine what kind of abhinna it was. What dhyana xiu cultivated was abhinna, and in her view,
the wings should be a kind of abhinna. With such a wondrous abhinna, this youths origins were
not ordinary.
They really encountered a great foe today.
Zuo Mo felt his entire body filled with great strength that was so abundant he wanted to groan.
The Great Day mo physique really lived up to the rumors! At this time, Zuo Mo finally
experienced that only the transformations of a mo physique could truly express the true power of
the mo physique.
The Light Void Wings on his back seemed to be rooted inside his body. There were no actual
changes inside his body, but many of his muscles, blood, and bones seemed to wake from their
slumber. The abundant power did not come from the Light Void Wings but from the depths of his
body.
Powerful!
The power that woke shook inside his body and almost forced his body to explode.
In this moment, Zuo Mo comprehended some of the true meaning of mo physique cultivation.
The body was like a treasure cave, one that was unfathomable in its depths. But in the great
majority of time, this treasure cave was dormant. The mo physique was like a vessel that
continuously matured, and developed to become increasingly more powerful, and so the power
that was activated and released was greater.
Looking at Elder Xiao who was just barely hanging on, Zuo Mo was suddenly filled with
confidence, confidence that came from great strength.
Facing a jindan, he was not helpless anymore!
Glancing at the Begonia Palace Lantern igniting in the sky, he decided to end the battle as
quickly as possible.
The Light Void Wings on his back lightly flapped. A strong force passed over, and his body
disappeared in the air again!

In the sky, the Begonia Palace Lantern started to burn into a ball of blue-white fire and pulsed in
an unique beat. Elder Wang chanted lowly, Blue Heart Begonia Sea!

Boom!
The empty sky seemed like dry tinder suddenly caught fire.
In an instant, the flame spread and the sky above Elder Wang turned to a sea of fire. The bluewhite sea of flames covered the sky.
Shu Long raised his face upwards. The sunlight was blocked by the sea of fire, and a large
shadow landed on his face. Looking at the vast sea of flame, one couldnt help but feel awe. The
blue-white sea of fire furiously burned as it spread. Countless threads of blue-white fire fell from
the sky like tens of thousands of blue-white hands of fire that shot at the five slave transporting
boats!
The faces of people on the boats, like the forging division, all changed. The furious sea of fire
above their head covered everything and felt unavoidable.
Only Shu Long and his fellows stood motionless and steady as rocks. But the battle intent in
their hearts was stirred by the sky full of fire. The black energy around them became denser.
The roiling black energy above their heads formed a snake again. The enormous snake was not
lacking compared to the sea of flame. At the same time, Shu Long raised his left hand, the left
hand that was covered in black energy. Every person in Guard Camp raised their left hand that
was covered in black energy.
The black snake opened its large mouth and sucked with a hiss.
The black energy was like fire, and its sparks left their hands and raced into the sky.
The blue-white flame came from the sky, just like the fire-like black energy rising up against the
flow. Between these white and black flames was a colossal black snake. The scene was filled
with power. It was like an invisible hand tightly gripped everyones hearts. The people on the
slave transporting boats dazedly raised their heads in silence. In this moment, they forgot their
terror.
The dots of black fire in the sky rapidly landed in the mouth of the black snake.
The maw of the black snake was like a bottomless pit, and cleanly absorbed every bit of black
energy that rose into the sky. The black energy around Shu Long and the others was now much
fainter. The sheen on their black armor was much dimmer.
The black snakes cold pupils showed slight pain. The two bumps on its forehead bulged like
something inside was moving, and wanted to burst out. A light suddenly exploded out of the
black snakes pupils as it shrieked.
Woo-ha!
The lines of fire landing from the sky suddenly paused and could not progress any further.
There seemed to be an invisible wall between the black snake and the white sea of fire that
forcibly stopped the tens of thousands of threads of blue-white fire.
Elder Wangs expression changed. She did not notice that she had bitten through her lips and
blood was dripping. She had been pushed into a hopeless situation! Even her retreat had been
unknowingly sealed shut. If she chose to retreat now, the sea of flames in the sky would explode,
and it would be difficult to escape death.
Pia, the hairpin in her hair broke. Her long hair fell down and was blown by the wind in a tangle
like demons dancing.
She did not hesitate. Her last thread of ling power was thrown crazily into the sea of fire.
[Fire Born Begonia]!
The sea of fire changed again. Blue begonias grew out of the sea of fire, bloomed, and withered.
The withered flower petals landed in the sea of fire and turned to dust. The sea of fire suddenly
collapsed and concentrated towards its center. All of the ling energy in the entire Hundred Flower

Valley was pulled in. The ling flowers that were planted throughout the valley felt this enormous
pulling force and left their branches to gravitate to the sea of fire.
Su Yue saw this and her heart bled. These ling flowers were the most important source of jingshi
for Hundred Flower Alliance. They were all destroyed today. It wouldnt be possible to recover
without twenty years of work.
After this battle, no matter if they obtained victory or were defeated, Hundred Flower Alliances
power would plummet, and it was likely they wouldnt even be able to hold onto Hundred
Flower Valley.

Should we go help Guard Camp? A thread of terror flashed across Zong Rus eyes. Even he,
who had very good composure, felt his heart beat wildly at the sea of fire in the sky.
Gongsun Cha smiled. Dont worry. Shu Long and the others arent weak.
Even though Shixiong had never told him who was in charge of Guard Camp, he knew. When
would it ever be his turn to worry about the mysterious person that could annihilate him in War
Chess?
Even he was curious just how strong the Guard Camp was.
Gongsun Cha suppressed his curiosity and his eyes returned to the battlefield he was responsible
for. Looking at Vermillion Bird Camp charge the other side in waves, a furious battle intent came
into his eyes. Even if it was that mysterious person that could exterminate him in War Chess, he
wouldnt willingly admit defeat.
Their fight had moved from War Chess into reality.
Was there anything that could excite him more?
It may have been the excitement that caused two patches of red to float on his face. This made
him look even more shy and bashful.
Close the net.

The sea of fire was changing, and the black snake in the sky had also reached the most crucial
time of its transformation. The two bumps on its forehead continuously grew like two enormous
blisters.
Woo-ha!
The black snake gave a painful shriek again. The mountain-like body furiously twisted.
Everywhere it swept, it created soul-shaking vibrations. Pew, the skin above the bumps on its
forehead finally broke. Two black horns that seemed like dry wood burst out.
The two black horns continued to grow until they were about two chi when they finally stopped.
Serpent transformation!
This black snake finally completed its most important transformation. Today onwards, it would
be called the Black Serpent.
A terrifying presence swept across the sky like a hard wind.
Everyone, including those on Zuo Mos side and the Hundred Flower Alliances side, froze in
their movements.

The only person that was not affected was Zuo Mo. The Light Void Wings on his back shook,
and resolved this shocking presence. But Zuo Mo was also shocked by the powerful presence of
the black serpent. The twenty zhang long serpent body swam with ease in the air.
The pair of pupils were not icy like they were in the past, but were dignified and proud, as well
as immeasurably deep.
It raised its serpent head. The sea of fire in the air turned to an enormous fire begonia. The
begonia faced the black serpent and slowly turned.
A hint of mirth came onto Shu Longs face. The black energy on his body was much fainter and
caused his slightly smile to look slightly fragile. The other camp guards were pale, but their faces
were overjoyed.
They had successfully cultivated to the second stage of the [Crow Fiend Mo Kill Formation]!
The second kill of the Crow Fiend Mo Kill Formation, Successive Mo Kill!
Translator Ramblings: Gongsun Cha is super competitive. Pu Yao is at a bit of a disadvantage
since he is starting with lower-quality soldiers to some degree but since he has much more
experience, Gongsun Cha and Pu Yao are better matched if they fight in the real world.
Zuo Mos speed matches a jindan now. Think how easy Clear Sky Old Forefather would have
been to take down if Zuo Mo was that powerful. Just zip right through that blockade.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Fifteen Flower Slaves
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom and warlord212.
Chapter Three Hundred and Fifteen Flower Slaves
The last gamble!
Even the slowest person could clearly feel that the moment that determined life and death had
arrived!
The black serpent suddenly turned into a ball of thick and vicious black energy, and then it shot
towards the fire begonia that was diving towards it from the sky.
A cold light flashed through Zuo Mos eyes. The Light Void Wings shook slightly, and his figure
disappeared in the air.
The Seventh, Ninth and Tenth Divisions of Vermillion Bird Camp attacked at the same time like
three blades flashing across the sky. With the presence of death, they viciously sliced at Elder
Mei.
Boom!
Everyone felt their vision darken, the earth shake like the world was ending. And then the sky
filled with a blinding light illuminated the sky, formed from countless streams of fire shooting in
all directions before disappearing.
All of Bright Water City was alarmed by such a terrifying collision. Countless xiuzhe flew into
the sky and looked with terror in the direction of Hundred Flower Valley.
The powers that had been preparing to come to the aid of Hundred Flower Valley saw this. They
were shocked and stopped their movements.
This was a collision on the level of jindan!

Compared to the earth-shaking black serpent, Zuo Mos attack was silent without even a whisper.
Like a ghost, he appeared behind Elder Xiao. The glass-like right palm lightly pressed on Elder
Xiaos glowingly alluring back.
His action was warm, gentle, and without any presence. When Zong Ru saw Zuo Mos move
from a distance, his expression changed slightly. He felt awe that Boss could cultivate [Sky Glass
Wave] to such a fantastical level.
Elder Xiaos figure suddenly froze. She seemed to hear an authoritative low growl echoing
throughout her body. The explosive power erupted like a volcano and the channels inside her
body were instantly shredded. What made her feel as though she was going to die was the golden
core inside her body had stopped revolving. No matter how she tried, the golden core did not
move even a sliver.
A hand suddenly grasped the golden core.
Endless blackness swallowed her like a tide.

Everyone in the Seventh, Ninth and Tenth Divisions raised their flying swords together.
Everyones blood was boiling in their bodies, their battle intent filled their bodies and almost
causing them to combust. They furiously accelerated without keeping anything back. Accelerate!
Continuous acceleration!
There was only one goal in everyones eyes!
The leaders of the three divisions shouted at the same time, Hundred Kill!
Hundred Kill!
The xiuzhe of the three divisions howled angrily, their flying swords slicing down. The three
sword energies that flashed passed at high speed gave off a blinding light in the air as their
killing intent locked onto Elder Mei.
Elder Meis hair was loose as she glared, blood seeping out of the corner of her mouth.
Facing the three enormous sword energies, she had a slight smile. Wave after wave of attacks had
pushed her nerves on edge. She had long been at the end of her rope, and just hanging on by a
breath. The plum tree in her hand had broken into pieces a long ago, just leaving behind the bare
main trunk.
The three enormous sword energies headed straight at her face. The presence sharp sword
essence was enough to freeze her blood.
Was she going to be finally released?
This was the last thought that flashed through her mind. The three enormous sword energies
exploded at the same time. The blinding light consumed her.

The Begonia Palace Lantern was destroyed. Elder Wang was heavily injured and spat out three
mouthfuls of blood. The black serpent swam and coiled in the air, and growled successively. One
of the black horns that had just grown had been broken. It clearly was very furious about that.
The black serpent had a vicious look in its eyes. It suddenly turned to a ball of black energy and
smashed towards Elder Wang.
It came extremely quickly. Elder Wangs movement was affected by her injuries and she was
struck full on by the black energy.

Bam!
Like a meteor, Elder Wang was thrown into the ground.
The pitiful Elder Wang wasnt a body cultivating expert like Zuo Mo. Such a strong crash was a
fatal blow to her weak body. She was instantly killed.

Su Yues face was pale white, her eyes filled with hopelessness. The death of three jindan elders
was a loss that Hundred Flower Alliance could not bear. There was still a troop brimming with
murderous intent in the sky. A thought suddenly flashed through her mind, was today the day that
Hundred Flower Alliance would cease to exist?
The Light Void Wings on Zuo Mos back slowly faded. The rich and explosive power inside his
body quickly disappeared like a retreating tide.
He looked at the other people. No matter if it was Vermillion Bird Camp or Guard Camp,
everyone was furiously panting for breath. It was possible to see how fierce these battles had
been. But all of them had smiles on their faces. Only they, especially because they had
experienced the battle with Clear Sky Old Forefather in Little Mountain Jie, could feel the
difficulty of this battle, could feel the improvement of their strength!
This battle had disturbed all of Bright Water City. Countless xiuzhe flew from Bright Water City
towards Hundred Flower Valley.
Zuo Mo glanced at the battlefield and grabbed Su Yue.
Su Yue seemed to have lost her soul. She did not resist Zuo Mo capturing her.
Zuo Mo was slightly reassured and said to Shu Long, You guys go search and see if there is
anymore people you are familiar with. Well take all that you recognize.
Shu Long was moved. Without another word, he nodded and left with Guard Camp.
Zuo Mo held Su Yue and led the group to start looting Hundred Flower Alliance. Su Yues last
thread of hope was destroyed and she was abnormally obedient.
Zuo Mo felt great shock at the wealth of Hundred Flower Alliance. It definitely was one of the
richest sects he had ever seen.
Ling Ying Sect which had been famed for its wealth in Sky Moon Jie, but it was very poor in
comparison to Hundred Flower Alliance. Su Yue was skilled in management. After twenty years
of accumulation, the wealth of this enormous sect caused Zuo Mo to sink into an extreme frenzy.
In the storeroom, third-grade and fourth-grade materials were piled up in mountains. Fifth-grade
materials were not rare. Zuo Mo even saw a large number of sixth-grade materials. His drool
almost spilled out. There were all kinds of ling flowers, including the seeds of rare ling flowers.
To a person like Zuo Mo who would even pluck the feathers off a goose, how could he pass on
such a good opportunity?
Everyone in the forging division were sent over to transport the materials to the slave
transporting ships. Zuo Mo decided to loot all of Hundred Flower Valley.
The treasure rooms of the elders gave Zuo Mo joyful surprises again, especially Elder Wangs
room which held many of her craftwork. The great majority of these were fifth-grade talismans
and above. Most of those were various kinds of flower lanterns. Even though there were not
many items in the treasure rooms, but all of them were of very good quality.
Zuo Mo did not hesitate in sweeping them all into his ring.
The jade scrolls, including the jade scrolls the elders collected, and the ones that Hundred Flower
Alliance had bought or obtained through other channels were also swept clean by Zuo Mo.

Looking at the disciples that fled in fear, Zuo Mo was filled with scorn. After he finished looting,
Hundred Flower Alliance would truly be dead. If this was a cohesive sect, all the disciples would
have started to attack at this time, and not just watch as the elders risked their lives.
This had to be said to be the tragedy of Hundred Flower Alliance.
Shu Long found Zuo Mo. His expression was grave, and his eyes pained and sorrowful, Boss,
come look.
Zuo Mo stilled, and followed Shu Long into an extremely deep cave in the mountain valley.
When he saw the terrifying scene, his skin uncontrollably prickled.
Hundreds of xiu slaves had all kinds of strange ling flowers tangled on their bodies. The roots of
these ling flowers were rooted in their bodies. Their gazes were unfocused, strange smiles on
their faces. The ling flowers on their bodies were alluring as they were blooming. However, Zuo
Mo who possessed Ling Eyes could clearly see the vitality of these xiu slaves were slowly being
lost.
It seemed as though something suddenly exploded inside Zuo Mos body. An unprecedented
anger swept his body like it was burning. He suddenly gripped Su Yues throat, and jerked her in
front. Su Yues face was twisted as her eyes showed pain. Zuo Mos viciousness and brutality
made her feel terror.
You group of scum!
Zuo Mo squeezed the words one by one through his teeth. His hand tightened and crushed Su
Yues throat!
Su Yues gaze became muddled. Even until death, she could not understand how Zuo Mo could
bear to act against her? Countless people showed goodwill towards her, and used all kinds of
methods to curry her favour. She had always assumed no man would willingly kill her because of
her unparalleled appearance!
As long as she was docile and obedient, they wouldnt bear to.
Zuo Mo distastefully threw Su Yue to the ground.
Boss, what to do with them? Shu Long could not disguise the sorrow in his voice. As someone
who had also been a xiu slave, he felt it even more deeply. He could detect the vitality of these
xiu slaves were slipping away bit by bit into the ling flowers on their bodies.
In Zuo Mos mind, Pu Yao suddenly said to him, Dont remove those ling flowers. If you move
them even one bit, they will immediately die.
Pu Yaos voice contained a rare thread of anger. Flower slaves, I hadnt thought this method
would have been passed down. Ling flowers grown on the bodies of flower slaves will take the
flower slaves purest vitality. The ling flowers grown this way will be extremely high in quality.
If you want to save them, there is only one method.
Zuo Mo finally understood why Hundred Flower Alliance had so many high grade ling flowers.
The rage rampaged in his chest. He forcibly suppressed it, and asked in a deep voice, What
method?
The primary energies of the flower slaves is being taken away, and they cannot escape death.
There are only two ways to save them. The first is to replenish their energies using lingdan and
such. The other method is to use reverse-absorption!
Reverse-absorption!
En, yes! The ling powers can absorb the primary energies and vitality of the flower slaves, so
why cant the flower slaves absorb the primary energies and vitality of the ling flowers?
Zuo Mos eyes lit up. How do you reverse it?
Pu Yao threw a ball of light to Zuo Mo.

Ill give you this [Flower Yao Coexistence Art]. Pu Yaos voice was slightly heavy, and carried
an imperceptible sorrow. In the past, during the war between xiuzhe and yaomo, many yaomo
were like them. After they were captured, they were implanted with ling flowers. They would die
after a length of time after they were rescued. In order to save them, this [Flower Yao
Coexistence Art] was created. I hadnt thought that this yao art would be used again after
thousands after years.
Zuo Mo bit his lips and turned to say to Shu Long, Take them all onto the boat.
A hint of joy flashed through Shu Longs eyes. Boss definitely had a solution. He and Guard
Camp hurriedly transported the hundreds of flower slaves to the slave transporting boats.
Zuo Mos mood was extremely bad. He felt there was a fire burning in his heart that could not be
vented. He never thought of himself as an ally of justice. However, the treatment of the flower
slaves had broken through his bottom line. He could not suppress his fury.
Suddenly, he raised his head to glance at the sky and the several troops rolling in.
Zuo Mo suddenly smirked coldly.
Translator Ramblings: Zuo Mo finally gets to loot a sect after missing Clear Sky Sect. Pu Yao
gets another golden core but not all three. Im very curious how many jingshi is a golden core
worth since they only seem to exist inside jindan and it is difficult to extract them.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Sixteen Enormous Change
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Three Hundred and Sixteen Enormous Change
Three powers had come, with between two to three thousand people.
They looked with shock at the devastated Hundred Flower Valley. They had clearly seen the
great battle of the jindan just now, and at a closer distance, they could feel the ferocity of the
battle even more clearly.
Hundred Flower Valley was in ruins. The mountain valley that had been prosperous and filled
with flowers had disappeared.
The people that came looked at Zuo Mos group with eyes that held shock and fear. It had been
these three thousand people that had erased a sect, a sect that ranked in the top ten of Sky Water
Jie. Truthfully, they didnt want to be the ones to test the waters, but
Sir is really too arrogant in our Bright Water City, One of the leaders of the group said coldly
then continued, You destroyed Hundred Flower Alliance with just a few actions. Great moves,
great attitude!
We do not want to meddle in the grievance you have with Hundred Flower Alliance. Combat is
common, but it is too cruel of you to destroy Hundred Flower Alliance! The one that spoke was
the leader of one of the other groups and he looked slightly old.
If youre wise, give us Su Yue, and we will spare your lives! This persons face was cold and
indifferent, his murderous intent barely hidden.
The three all had calm expressions. They predicted that Zuo Mos group did not have the energy
to fight after experiencing such a battle. Their intentions of taking advantage of the situation was
evident.
Zuo Mo glanced at Shu Long and the others. He found that they could not disguise the
exhaustion on their faces. The great battle just now had expended everyones energy. However,

they were still quick in reorganizing themselves. No one was panicked or terrified. There was
only calm on each persons face.
Seeing that their words did not cause Zuo Mo and his fellows to panic, the faces of the three
people that spoke couldnt help but darken. The strength of mind of the Master of Golden Crow
Citys subordinates was greater than they had imagined. In their predictions, if they just slightly
pressured the Master of Golden Crow City, he would capitulate.
They did not want the situation to devolve into a stand-off.
Just as the three were preparing to increase their pressure on Zuo Mo, Zuo Mo calmly spoke, Su
Yue? I killed her.
Hiss!
Simultaneous inhales of shock rang out in the surroundings. There were hundreds of people that
had come to watch other than the three factions. They all were xiuzhe that had been disturbed by
the battle and came to watch. Everyone knew Su Yue of Bright Water City.
Many peoples expressions became unnatural at the fact that such a strong local power had been
easily destroyed by the mysterious power of unknown origins.

What no one noticed was that some xiuzhe exchanged looks among themselves and quietly left
the crowd. There were only twenty or so xiuzhe that left hence they went unnoticed. But it was
possible to see with the naked eye that many xiuzhe were quickly flying towards this place from
Bright Water City.
The City Master is in danger! one of the xiuzhe that retreated said with a worried expression.
These people clearly want to take advantage. Hmph, they are really pulling a just excuse!
another person said furiously.
We cant watch as City Master lands in danger. This person seemed to have some status in this
group of people. He said in a deep voice, Everyone cannot forget the favor City Master did for
all of us, giving us the chance to leave Little Mountain Jie, to see the light again.
But there are just so few of us
With just us is definitely not enough. However, theres a lot of people that came from Little
Mountain Jie in Bright Water City. The person said with a grave expression, Have you thought
of how our days in Sky Water Jie will be in the future if City Master is treated like this today?
Those of us that came from Little Mountain Jie, will all of us be bullied like this?
Right! They even dare to target City Master, we definitely wont hold a place in their eyes! Big
Brother, what do you suggest we do?
Lets go to Bright Water City to get reinforcements, the person said decisively. If we spread
the news that City Master is in danger, no one from Little Mountain Jie will have any reason to
stand aside and watch!
The twenty or so people exchanged looks, nodded, and flew rapidly towards Bright Water City.

You killed Su Yue? The three people had dark faces.


Zuo Mos expression was calm as he silently grasped a Sonic Lightning Walnut in his hand.
These people looked very well-organized, but there were no jindan xiuzhe. Zuo Mo released a

breath at this. If a jindan had come, Zuo Mo would definitely take his people and run for their
lives.
Seeing the other was wary and had not immediately attacked, Zuo Mo was happy to drag on the
conversation. The other definitely would not expect that the xiuzhe of Vermillion Bird Camp had
formations carved on their bodies that could automatically take ling power from the air and
recover multiple times faster than normal xiuzhe. The recovery rate of Shu Long and his group
was even faster.
When they recovered, he wouldnt be afraid of these three thousand people, or even twice that.
So what? Do you have a relationship with her? Zuo Mo raised an eyebrow.
Laughs rang out from the crowd. The three peoples expressions were not attractive. All three of
them had lusted after Su Yues beauty. Other than the temptation of great benefits, they had the
notion of taking Su Yue into their houses.
Sect Leader Su has a deep relationship with our sect. This one will definitely help get justice for
Sect Leader Su, one of the people said hatefully.
The other two did not speak, but their ranks pressed forward. The mood suddenly became tense.

As the base of Hundred Flower Alliance, Hundred Flower Valley was not far from Bright Water
City. The procession of twenty people quickly travelled to Bright Water City. They suddenly split
up, and flew low through the streets. Channelling their ling power, they shouted with all their
power, The Master of Golden Crow City is being surrounded. Brothers of Little Mountain Jie, if
youre a man, stand up!
The shouts were like thunder as they rolled in waves. The people travelling in the sky looked
over.
The leader of the group suddenly swept across the ground, and his eyes lit up. There was an
enormous sound tablet about ten zhang high below that swirled with purple light. A Sound Tablet
Agency! He instantly landed, and floated into the agency.
Sir a xiuzhe came up.
Before the other finished speaking, he took out a pile of jingshi and said in a deep voice,
Broadcast a message for me.

As the others ranks moved forward, Zuo Mo did not feel any pressure. The three troops could be
called organized, but there was still a great distance from being an elite force. He was used to the
great pressure from Vermillion Bird Camp and Guard Camp. Zuo Mo wouldnt feel anything
from this kind of degree of pressure.
But he noticed the xiuzhe in the surroundings seemed to stir as well, and his heart became wary.
The individual power of the xiuzhe at the edges were average, and they were not organized, but
in Zuo Mos eyes, the threat of these people was much greater than the three factions at the front.
With just a slight provocation, they would lose their rationality. They would charge up, and then
the situation would descend into chaos. That had happened many times before in Little Mountain
Jie. Zuo Mo, who had crawled his way out of Little Mountain Jie, how could he neglect this?
Just you guys? Zuo Mo said coldly. His eyes narrowed coldly like blades, cold and freezing.

For some unknown reason, all three people jumped in fright. They suddenly remembered this
youth in front of them just killed a jindan.
Their pupils suddenly shrank to pinpoints, and their expressions changed as they stared at the
two silver walnuts covered in golden patterns that spun on Zuo Mos hand.
Sonic Lightning Walnuts!
An exclamation suddenly came from the crowd. Some that had knowledge unconsciously
retreated twenty zhang!
All the eyes gathered on the two Sonic Lightning Walnuts in Zuo Mos hands. Those were Sonic
Lightning Walnuts! The terrifying presence that emanated from the two Sonic Lightning Walnuts
made ones heart jump rapidly.
Sonic Lightning Walnuts were rare fourth-grade materials. Who would be so wasteful to forge
Sonic Lightning Walnuts into one-use talismans?
The eyes of many people became extremely heated, but no one dared to move a sliver.
When Sonic Lightning Walnuts were forged into one-time talismans, they were things that even
jindan were wary of. However, what reassured them slightly was that while the power of onetime Sonic Lightning Walnut talismans was astounding, but they could only be used once.
The two Sonic Lightning Walnuts slowly floated forward from Zuo Mos palm, and it was
possible to see lightning arc across the surface of each walnut.
Whoosh, the xiuzhe in front of Zuo Mo simultaneously moved to the sides. They didnt want to
be at the front.
Their eyes suddenly shrank again.
Another two Sonic Lightning Walnuts appeared in Zuo Mos palm.
The two Sonic Lightning Walnuts floated up from his palm and floated in front of his chest.
The four Sonic Lightning Walnuts lined up in a row. Everyones eyes tightly locked onto them,
and didnt dare to move away. Many people uncontrollably swallowed. If it was said that the two
Sonic Lightning Walnuts had previously made people feel fear, then four Sonic Lightning
Walnuts was like pouring a basin of cold water on their hearts that had been shaken.
If four Sonic Lightning Walnuts exploded at the same time
The xiuzhe that thought of this shook.
When another two Sonic Lightning Walnuts appeared in Zuo Mos palm, the entire Hundred
Flower Valley was silent.
Six Sonic Lightning Walnuts spun and twirled like six mischievous children restlessly in front of
Zuo Mo.
After a short period of utter silence, the xiuzhe that had thought they had some power did not
hesitate this time, and simultaneously retreated fifty zhang.
The space around Zuo Mo was instantly empty.
Where did this guy come from? Everyone felt they were going crazy. One move, and it was six
Sonic Lightning Walnuts! This extravagance was enough to smash most of the tycoons in Bright
Water City!
When the number of Sonic Lightning Walnuts in front of Zuo Mo increased to eight, the three
leaders had ashen faces. The morale of their troops reached their lowest depth.
If taking out eight Sonic Lightning Walnuts in one go could not be considered the mannerisms of
a rich sect disciple, then the top ten sects of Sky Water Jie were as poor as street urchins.
When the number of Sonic Lightning Walnuts in front of Zuo Mo reached a terrifying ten,
everyone was left numb.

If ten Sonic Lightning Walnuts exploded simultaneously, all of them, including the Hundred
Flower Valley, would only have one fate. To turn to ash.
When the number of Sonic Lightning Walnuts reached twenty
The people were not nervous anymore, and they relaxed.
Maniac, why are they coming to a small place at Sky Water Jie to show-off for? These young
masters are really boring. All they know is to play dumb.
Yes, they think we are stupid! Ha ha, those three factions are stunned now. Theyve offended a
rich young master, just wait to get killed!
Did this guy want Su Yue? Tried to force himself, Su Yue wouldnt comply so he killed Su Yue
in anger, and destroyed Hundred Flower Alliance
Su Yue wouldnt comply? Another person rolled their eyes, Who knows who tried to force
themselves onto the other person
The tense mood in the sky suddenly became filled with humor.
The three leaders were dumbstruck where they stood.
Translator Ramblings: Yes, some of you noticed that Pu Yao was totally fine with turning the
bandits into golden armor guards which is a form of enslavement while he was extremely
affected by the flower slaves.
First, Pu Yao is a yao. The ones that were affected in the past were yao who he might have seen
or they may have been people he had known. Also, he has a hatred of xiuzhe and they were
enemies in the past so Pu Yao potentially has little sympathy for xiuzhe. Additionally, for both
Zuo Mo and Pu Yao, the bandits were their enemies and going to be killed anyway. Pu Yao just
found another use for them. On the other hand, they have no grievances with the flower slaves
and it is easier to feel sympathy for them.
Zuo Mo and Pu Yao are not bleeding hearts/saints that will try to free every slave or right every
wrong. That would be contrary to what Fang Xiang has shown for Zuo Mos pragmatism and Pu
Yaos indifferent and disdainful attitude towards most things.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Seventeen Clouds Gathering
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom and warlord212.
Chapter Three Hundred and Seventeen Clouds Gathering
Fei Shan was working idly and humming as he listened to the sound tablet. The people around
him stared at him weirdly. It puzzled them how someone could appear relaxed and pleased when
doing such a complex work.
Only the xiuzhe that came from Little Mountain Jie could feel so at ease with such tasks.
He suddenly stopped what he was doing, and listened with concentration.
Friends from Little Mountain Jie, the Master of Golden Crow City is being entrapped in
Hundred Flower Valley in Bright Water City. Please come quickly to help.
He listened very carefully. The sound tablet repeated it a few times. He stood up, and then started
to walk towards the door under the strange gazes of everyone else.
Where are you going? The managers expression was slightly ugly as he lectured sharply,
Come back! You havent finished what you are doing

Fei Shan bared his teeth in a smile, but his gaze was slightly murderous. The manager
unconsciously shook and he didnt dare to look at Fei Shans gaze. The words that followed were
swallowed back into his stomach. Fei Shan ignored him, and left through the door.
Walking on the streets, he instantly heard many people shouting loudly in the air.
Brothers of Little Mountain Jie, City Master is trapped in Hundred Flower Valley, everyone go
get them!
The City Master is in danger! We shall
All of Bright Water City was disturbed. People continuously flew into the sky.
Fei Shan raised his head. The sky of Bright Water City was filled with people. Seeing what was
happening, he suddenly recalled the scene of everyone following the City Master as they charged
out of Little Mountain Jie through the experience of the months. Something inside his body
seemed to have been ignited.
He did not hesitate to channel his ling power, and flew into the sky and entered the flow of
people.
They dared to move against the city master
The killing intent inside increased. Every xiuzhe around him had fury on their faces. This group
of xiuzhe had all experienced the cruel calamity of Little Mountain Jie and survived. They were
full of gratefulness and respect towards Zuo Mo who had led them out of Little Mountain Jie.
The Master of Golden Crow City had led everyone out of the terrifying cage that was Little
Mountain Jie. Now that City Master was in danger, how could they stand aside?

A group of people were surrounding a sound tablet.


Head, should we go? a mousy-looking person hurriedly asked his leader.
The Head glared. Of course we will go! They dare to even attack the City Master. Would they
even leave us a way to live in the future? Kill them all!
His subordinates instantly became excited and rumbled, Kill them!
Hmph, they want to make an example of the City Master. They should first look and see what
they are made out of! The Heads face was murderous.
The xiuzhe that came out of Little Mountain Jie were much more sensitive to danger than normal
xiuzhe. In his view, this incident that targeted the City Master was a sign. It meant that their
future days in Sky Water Jie would not be good.

There were about fifty to sixty xiuzhe that came from Little Mountain Jie, but all of them were
ningmai xiuzhe. In Sky Water Jie, ningmai was the most common group. This sudden rush of
ningmai xiuzhe with battle experience had diminished the power of the local powers.
The conflict between the xiuzhe of Little Mountain Jie and Sky Water Jie was unavoidable.
The xiuzhe of Sky Water Jie knew this. So how could the xiuzhe that had experienced even
crueler battles in Little Mountain Jie be ignorant?
Are we going to be able to get there in time? a subordinate said worriedly.
The thoughts of normal xiuzhe were much simpler. The Master of Golden Crow City had led
them out of Little Mountain Jie, and unknowingly became their spiritual leader. The great

majority of people held a grateful attitude. Hearing that the Master of Golden Crow City was
trapped, they felt very angry.
Were moving now! The Head said with a cold snort, Hmph, they think City Master is weak,
hell break all their teeth! This battle will be a great one.
The Head bared his teeth and had a vicious expression.
He suddenly stood up, and glared as he brimming with murderous intent. See how Ill sort out
anyone that slacks off today! Dont pack anything, we are moving now!
These leaders feared xiuzhe like Clear Sky Old Forefather, but they didnt have any caution
regarding the other factions of Sky Water Jie.
Even more, there was also the Master of Golden City there.
The power of the Master of Golden Crow City had been deeply imbedded in the hearts of these
rebellious people. Many people had the idea. Wouldnt it be more tempting if they could
persuade the Master of Golden Crow City to take everyone and sweep through Sky Water Jie?
After continuous urging, the sky above Bright Water City was filled with xiuzhe from Little
Mountain Jie.
The number of xiuzhe from Little Mountain Jie that were in Bright Water City wasnt much, but
there were still around several thousand of them. The xiuzhe from Little Mountain Jie were easy
to recognize. The killing energy they had was much thicker than normal xiuzhe. Now each of
these xiuzhe had vicious glares.
Is that group of people crazy? They dare to move against City Master!
Who cares, kill them all!
If the tiger doesnt roar, you mistake it for a sick cat?!
Everyone was very excited as they flew furiously in the direction of Hundred Flower Valley. The
xiuzhe of Bright Water City had never seen such a procession before, and were dumbstruck
where they stood. Those xiuzhe that were smarter raced back to report.
Some older xiuzhe had worried expressions. If the xiuzhe from Little Mountain Jie and the
xiuzhe from Sky Water Jie had a conflict, the state of Sky Water Jie would become tumultuous.
What many people did not know was that message broadcasted by the sound tablet had spread
through all of Sky Water Jie. At this time, many xiuzhe were travelling on their swords as they
murderously flew in the direction of Bright Water City.
If one looked down from the sky, they would see many sword lights gathering with astounding
speed towards Bright Water City as though they were attracted by a magnet.
The Master of Golden Crow City was the person of most authority of all the xiuzhe from Little
Mountain Jie. Without anyone noticing it, he was influencing the direction the affairs in Sky
Water Jie would take.

In the House of the Crow Marquis, Rong Wei saw the compound guard run in with a sound tablet
and she was shocked.
But when she listened to the message that was being repeatedly broadcasted through the sound
tablet, her expression instantly changed.
Damn it!
Were those people crazy?
She knew just how powerful and terrifying the Master of Golden Crow City was. The elite force
under his command surpassed any troop in Sky Water Jie. She remembered the scene of those

xiuzhe bowing in farewell towards Zuo Mo. If the Master of Golden Crow City made a call right
now- she uncontrollably shook.
That was too frightening ..
The marquis was not here. This was not good!
Rong Wei was like an ant on a hot plate and spun in panic. At this time, a paper crane flew from
the sky. Rong Wei waved her hand and the paper crane fell into her palm. When she finished
reading, her expression changed dramatically.

Bright Water City, Sky Immortal Pavilion.


These people from Little Mountain Jie are so aggressive right now. In the future, wont they try
to climb on top of our heads in the future? A middle-aged xiuzhes expression was dark. He was
the sect leader of the largest power in Bright Water City, Yan Yang of Wood Sword Sect.
We need to let them know whose territory this is, a xiuzhe with a waxy-yellow face said
faintly. He was wearing a golden-threaded long robe, had bright eyes and an authoritative
presence. He was the sect leader of Cloud Divine Sect, He Qiu.
Wood Sword Sect and Cloud Divine Sect were the largest two sects in Bright Water City. Bright
Water City was the most prosperous city of Sky Water Jie, and was home to four of the top ten
sects. Other than the Hundred Flower Alliance that Zuo Mo had destroyed, Wood Sword Sect
was placed fifth, Cloud Divine Sect was placed seventh, and the other, the Blackwater Sect was
tenth.
All the other sect leaders present nodded their heads.
It had touched many peoples nerves that the Master of Golden Crow City had attacked Hundred
Flower Alliance. Wood Sword Sect and Cloud Divine Sect had marriage alliances with Hundred
Flower Alliance. Zuo Mo had moved to destroy Hundred Flower Alliance before the other sects
had managed to react. If he had taken some more time, his victory would not have been so easily
achieved.
Hm, Blackwater Sect does not want to meddle in this matter. Thats good, one less person to
share in the spoils. Yan Yangs expression was cold.
The other sect leaders had joyed expressions. In their view, with Wood Sword Sect and Cloud
Divine Sect as the leaders, the Master of Golden Crow City wouldnt be able to make any waves
no matter how powerful he was. They had long heard ago that the Master of Golden Crow City
was very rich, and the five enormous slave transporting boats that were filled with all kinds of
talismans and rare materials. They were truly treasure ships.
Even more, now there was also the enormous wealth of Hundred Flower Alliance added to the
spoils. How could peoples hearts not be moved?
Many sects were jealous of Hundred Flower Alliances flower growing methods. If they could
receive the ling farming methods for the ling flowers, they would have another steady source of
income.
So when the two big sect leaders called out, many small sects responded.
The House of the Crow Marquis the leader of a small sect muttered.
He Qius expression was natural. No matter. I have already notified them. I believe they can see
the state of affair clearly.
Everyone, go back and prepare. Lets set the time for noon tomorrow, Yan Yang said.
The sect leaders stood and went back to prepare.

After everyone had left, only Yan Yang and He Qiu were left in Sky Immortal Pavilion.
He Qiu asked, How many people are you preparing to bring?
I heard that the Master of Golden Crow City has two elite forces. I really want to see how they
compare to my Wood Sword Camp, Yan Yang said proudly. Wood Sword Camp was the most
elite troop of Wood Sword Sect, and was famed through Sky Water Jie.
He Qiu clapped and smiled, I also had the same idea. How about we each take a troop and see
who will win?
The Flying Cloud Camp and Cloud Divine Sect was also an elite force known in Sky Water Jie.
If both you and I win, then what? Yan Yang looked at He Qiu.
The first one to win is the winner, He Qiu smiled. The flower slave growth method of
Hundred Flower Alliance supposedly originated from the Thousand Year Battle. How about we
use it as our prize? But since the city Master of Golden Crow City has no jindan, if we use
jindan to pressure people, we will not win honorably. You and I cannot take jindan. What does
Sect Leader Yan think?
A light flashed through Yan Yangs eyes, Wonderful!
The two exchanged a look, sparks flying and did not stand down.

The atmosphere of Bright Water City suddenly became tense, and the number of xiuzhe that flew
through the air dropped dramatically. Many stores that got the news of the battle closed their
doors.
Tian Ling Zi and the other two people looked at the large patch of Sonic Lightning Walnuts that
floated in front of Zuo Mo and their mouths tasted bitter. They really hit a steel board this time.
The other had mysterious origins, and his power was far greater than they had imagined.
They couldnt describe the bitterness inside.
Such a big personage like you, why did you run to such a poor gutter like Sky Water Jie for?
Cant you give us a road to live?
A paper crane suddenly flew into Tian Ling Zis hand. After Tian Ling Zi finished looking, the
shadow on his face was swept away and he roared with laughter.
The other people looked with unfriendliness at Tian Ling Zi. They really couldnt think what
could make Tian Ling Zi so happy in such terrible circumstances?
Tian Ling Zi passed the paper crane to the other two people, and smiled smugly. Sect Leader
Yan Yang of Wood Sword Sect and Sect Leader He Qiu of Cloud Divine Sect will be leading
their army tomorrow to take this little boys life!
After the two finished, they all had joyful expressions.
Ha ha, we really have foresight!
We only need to drag down the Master of Golden Crow City, and we will definitely have a
mention in the merit record!
The three looked at each other and laughed loudly.
They were completely ignorant that danger was approaching them!
Translator Ramblings: Conflict has arrived. Zuo Mos attack on Hundred Flower Alliance is just
a spark that ignited the fire prematurely.
You guys have so many different ways of looking at the same content. Its really interesting.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Eighteen Human
Wrecking Ball
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Three Hundred and Eighteen Human Wrecking Ball
Zuo Mo and Lil Miss looked at each other, and understood what the other was thinking.
It hadnt been long but Vermillion Bird Camp completely finished their recovery. The supplies of
Vermillion Bird Camp was generous, and each person carried enough jingshi so that they could
quickly recover ling power. He glanced at Shu Long. Noticing Shu Longs nearly imperceptible
nod, he had to silently praise the powerful recovery speed of mo skills.
The power inside his body had also silently recovered. The strength of the Great Day mo
physique far surpassed both the Guard Camp and his imagination.
Zuo Mo straightened his spine and looked at the three troops opposite him. His heart was filled
with the belief that they would win!
The silent feeling of confidence had formed between these people without their own knowledge.
He shifted his body. Almost at the same moment, Vermillion Bird Camp and Guard Camp started
to move.
Vermillion Bird Camp was like a gust of clear wind. As the troop gathered and scattered, it was
ethereal and nimble, carrying its unique sharp killing intent that was like a blade. While the
Guard Camp was like a dense steel flood. They were not quick, but they were a tyrannical wave
of destruction.
Zuo Mo was at the very front of the troop. He pressed his lips together tightly, his eyes slightly
slowed as his body stood straight like a spear. The Sonic Lightning Walnuts that flew around his
body drew out threads of silver light.
On his left rear flank was Vermillion Bird Camp waiting to act. If one looked closely, they would
find the entire Vermillion Bird Camp was like a compressed spring that was silently trembling
and filled with the aura of danger. Gongsun Cha did not sit on the broad Green Cloud Sword like
he usually did. He had stood up, his eyes curving into crescents, and a shy smile on his face. A
blade-like light flashed through the eyes of the Vermillion Bird Camp xiuzhe.
On his right rear flank, the Guard Camp was silent and motionless. They were like a troop of
battle servants from thousands of years ago. Shu Long was at the very center of the troop, steady
and murderous, yet motionless. The black heavy armor encased them tightly, and separated them
from the outside. The fiendishness from the slightly lowered eyes made people feel the battle
intent roiling away behind this deathly silent flood!
Zuo Mo and his peoples movements instantly attracted everyones attention. Tian Ling Zis trio
changed expression. They commanded their troops to retreat fifty zhang. Zuo Mos action of
taking out twenty Sonic Lightning Walnuts had destroyed their notions of taking advantage of
the situation, but the news that came had given them the hope they could share in the spoils.
They had made the decision to not provoke the Master of Golden Crow City. As long as they
managed to keep track of him, then after tomorrows battle they would receive some merit. They
prepared to distance themselves at any moment.
Zuo Mo decided to fight quickly.

He raised his right hand and then chopped down hard. Kill!
A cold light flashed through Lil Miss crescent eyes. Vermillion Bird Camp who had been
waiting for the signal suddenly exploded. Hundreds of sword energies tore the air!
Howls shrieked through the air.
Shu Long gave a low shout, Kill!
The black energy shifted and twisted. Thousands of black energy threads gathered and formed a
black flood in the general shape of a snake. Waves of deep shrieks came from in inside.
The sky seemed to have suddenly darkened.
The aura of destruction and the terrifying killing energy filled the sky. Everyone paled.
The trio felt their limbs turn cold. Each of them had pale faces. Only now did they realize how
idiotic their ideas were! Regret filled Tian Ling Zis heart. At this time, he could only shout at the
top of his lungs, Retr
His pupils suddenly expanded. He lowered his head, and saw a hand bursting out from his chest.
The xiuzhe around Tian Ling Zi looked at him as though they saw a ghost. The terror inside their
eyes spread through their hearts like spiderwebs.
A figure with golden wings on its back disappeared from their field of view.
This attack was flawless!
The Light Void Wings on his back lightly flapped, and a rich flow of power seemed to flood in
like the tide. His figure was like lightning and flew out a great distance. Zuo Mo did not feel any
panic at being in battle. His mind was unusually serene. He carefully experienced the power
from the Light Void Wings behind his back. Under the terrifying power, it was not an easy matter
to control his posture.
This battle, however, was the perfect chance to learn.
As for the Sonic Lightning Walnuts, wastefulness was shameful
The Light Void Wings on his back shook, and his vision blurred. He appeared half a zhang in
front of a xiuzhe.
Uh-oh!
Zuo Mo who had just been very smug made a strange sound. Before he could react, he smashed
onto the others ling shield.
Ping!
The ling shield instantly broke. Zuo Mos earlier momentum did not dissipate, and heavily
collided with the other..
Zuo Mo only heard a wail and the sound of bones breaking. It was like he hit a sandbag. He
unconsciously moved the Light Void Wings on his back. A strong force passed over, and his
figure uncontrollably disappeared again.
He was like a person-shaped wrecking ball that had completely lost control and bounced between
the people in the crowd.
But his Great Day mo physique was very strong. Adding on that terrifying speed, bones broke
and limbs tore off wherever he passed. The wails echoed in his ears.
He saw the others could not wound him and decided to ignore them to concentrate on controlling
the Light Void Wings. Only when he could truly control the Light Void Wings would he have the
true assets to fight against jindan. Every one of the six transformations of the Great Day mo
physique were powerful. If he could adeptly use them, his power would furiously grow.
Vermillion Bird Camp used a completely different style. Each platoon was like a blade. They
were like butchers dismembering ling beasts, accurate, at ease, and without hurry.

Guard Camp was still unmoving at their spot, but the crazily dancing black energy was changing
strangely. It suddenly gathered and scattered, sometimes turning into a large snake, and
sometimes as countless small snakes. The unpredictability and strangeness of the Little Mo Kill
was fully expressed.
However, no matter if it was the waves of charges from the Vermillion Bird Camp, or the Little
Mo Kill of Guard Camp, none of them dared to go close to Zuo Mo.
Zuo Mos dashes and crashes made everyone in Vermillion Bird Camp feel shock, and distance
themselves. If they were accidentally hit, they would end here. Any xiuzhe that Boss hit had
wailed, flew out a long distance through the air like a sandbag, and was smashed to pieces as
they crashed into the ground.
No one was left alive!
No one was left alive if they were hit
Their hearts felt a chill. They could clearly see that Boss posture when he hit others was very
strange. This sign made it evident that Boss could not fully control himself. If they were killed
due to being hit while Boss moved uncontrollably, that was a true embarrassment. Who could
they complain to?
The xiuzhe of Vermillion Bird Camp distanced themselves from Zuo Mo and traced out a long
arc to circle around to kill the xiuzhe that wanted to escape.
Gongsun Chas smile had frozen on his face. He was looking with shock at the sky.
Compared to Vermillion Bird Camps avoidance, Guard Camp was even more depressed. When
they had seen Vermillion Bird Camp moving aside, they had been slightly proud. Since they were
attacking from a distance, they were very safe.
But shock quickly came onto Shu Long and the others faces.
The black energy of Little Mo Kill would go crazy and become uncontrollable for some
unknown reason if it neared Boss and dispersed in all directions. In this short period of time, the
black energy expended on the enemies wasnt as much as the black energy that Boss had
scattered.
What situation was this
Having met such a strange situation for the first time, Shu Long could only grimace.
Out of helplessness, he could only control the Little Mo Kill and attack the enemy from the
fringes .
An extremely strange scene played out in the battlefield in the sky. Little Mo Kill and Vermillion
Bird Camp formed the borders of the battlefield together like a steel wall. No xiuzhe was able to
escape.
Inside this sphere, the sound of impact continuously rang out.
Zuo Mo saw the other was not able to damage his Great Day mo physique and decided to not
care about his posture, and just focus on controlling the Light Void Wings on his back.
Therefore, he used all kinds of peerlessly strange positions and astounding speed to hit one
xiuzhe after the other out of the spherical battlefield.
The people of Vermillion Bird Camp were alert. They were nervous about the enemies that were
hit. No one would add another blow to these people. What they were alert about was not getting
hit by these enemies. There was an unfortunate Vermillion Bird Camp xiuzhe that had been
lightly injured by an enemy that had been sent flying.
It was a calamity from the heavens!
After a while, the enemies inside the spherical battlefield had completely collapsed. They
furiously attacked the outside border!

In the sky, the blade-like charges instantly started!


Little Mo Kill was activated at full power without anything held back.
The wails of the enemy rang in their ears. Flowers spun out in the sky, and like dumplings, they
continuously fell down.
The minds of these Sky Water Jie xiuzhe had been robbed, and their morale was at its lowest
point. The entire troop was collapsing at a rapid rate. Having lost the commander, with
collapsing morale, without motivation, they were just rabble. In front of elite troops like
Vermillion Bird Camp and Guard Camp, they were a group of sheep waiting for slaughter.
The merciless slaughter only continued for a short hour before the entire battlefield was cleared.
None of the spectating xiuzhe were able to maintain their calm. They looked with pale white
faces at the empty battlefield, and looked at the Master of Golden Crow Citys subordinates
methodically looting the battlefield.
These peoples practiced and crisp actions, these movements that did not have any presence of
killing, made the xiuzhe from Sky Water Jie smell the scene of blood and fire after such a battle.

So weak! Lei Peng jerked a jade pendant from a corpse as he snorted coldly. Just this group
of trashy people, and they want to attack us. They really dont know anything.
People die for wealth, birds die for food, whats so strange about that? Werent we the same in
the past? Nian Lu did not even raise his head, his movements were clean and brisk.
Lei Peng stilled at the words. Tilting his head to think, he nodded and said, Thats true. He then
furrowed his brow and said, But we are no longer the same. But how are we not the same?
Nian Lus hands stopped moving. He straightened his spine, and said seriously. We arent the
same now. But he also could not pinpoint where they were not the same.
After thinking fruitlessly for a while, Lei Peng was impatient. Whatever, what are we thinking
about that for? Just follow Boss. In any case, an was thinking that our way of living now isnt so
bad. Its worth it even if we die!
En, Nian Lu made a sound of agreement, his eyes deep. Thats right. We lived long enough
since we didnt die in Little Mountain Jie.

Zuo Mo panted heavily. It was the first time he tried out close combat fighting in a real fight like
this. He hadnt felt it before, but when he stopped, he felt his entire body was unspeakably sore.
He inhaled sharply. It looked as though this Great Day mo physique had its limits. He couldnt be
so brash in the future.
You guys are too vicious!
A choked female voice came from the sky. Zuo Mo raised his head and found a female xiuzhe
within the crowd was swearing and pointing at his nose.
The surrounding suddenly became silent.
The faces of the xiuzhe beside Zuo Mo all darkened.
What? Do you want to kill me too? The female xiu proudly flew out of the crowd. Her eyes
held tears, and her expression was excited. They werent even defending themselves. Why cant
you give them a road to live? Why do you have to kill them all?

Translator Ramblings: I was gone for a few hours and it seemed the comments section exploded.
That made for a lot of good reading about the stupidity of certain people. There is a mindset the
sects have because they have more jindan than Hundred Flower Alliance, they are prepared, and
they have trained battalions which outnumber Zuo Mos group so they think they will win. They
essentially believe Hundred Flower Alliance lose due to the factor of surprise and they will be
better. The jindan will be kept in reserve because the sects are prominent ones and they want
face. It will look like they bully outsiders if they use jindan while the other group isnt. On the
other hand, Zuo Mo and the others are in a mindset of war which means their actions are not
honorable and they dont care that much about face, not that Zuo Mo cared much about it in
the first place.
Zuo Mos armies need hazard pay to help them with injuries from their own boss. Nian Lu and
Lei Peng are stand ins for the rest of Zuo Mos people. They realize they have changed
killing jindan using teamwork is pretty cool, even if they are not the strongest jindan

This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Three Hundred and Nineteen If You Want A Fight, Fight!
Zuo Mo rolled his eyes.
He decided to ignore her. This kind of woman didnt have a clear head. Since the two sides had
started to fight, if one spoke of benevolence, wasnt that just asking for death? Crazy person!
Lets go! He turned his head and said.
Shu Long led Guard Camp back to the slave transporting ships. They were able to fly for short
distances, but their speed was slow. They liked using the steady slave transporting boats more.
The Vermillion Bird Camp swam in the sky as they warily looked at the surrounding xiuzhe.
Come on, kill! Kill! The emotions of the female xiu became increasingly excited. You killed
so many people already. You shouldnt be afraid of killing one more! What? You dont dare? You
people from Little Mountain Jie come to our Sky Water Jie and the first thing you do is to kill.
Go back to your Little Mountain Jie, we dont welcome you!
The surrounding Sky Water Jie xiuzhe shifted.
The female xius words really struck many of the Sky Water Jie xiuzhes hearts. They were
already very resistant to the xiuzhe of Little Mountain Jie. Many peoples eyes became
unfriendly. Some of the powers that had been observing started to shift.
Zuo Mos face suddenly became cold. He stopped in the air.
Vermillion Bird Camp started to consolidate. Having just stepped onto the slave transporting
boat, Shu Longs face darkened. The faces of the other people became ugly. They came from
Little Mountain Jie and were abnormally sensitive to the atmosphere of their surrounding
environment.
They felt enmity.
Zuo Mo did not speak. He was not shocked at this scene. To the xiuzhe of Sky Water Jie, they
were just outsiders. The arrival of xiuzhe from Little Mountain Jie had already significantly
changed the status quo in Sky Water Jie which was why their enmity was so strong.

You wont even have mercy on women? The more the female xiu shouted, the more sorrowful
and angry she became. Didnt you kill Sect Leader Su Yue? What? If you have the guts, then
kill me
The voice suddenly stopped.
The head that flew into the air, her expression full of disbelief. She seemed to still be unable to
believe that Zuo Mo dared to kill her under the eyes of the public!
The xiuzhe of Sky Water Jie instantly rumbled. Many people also had expressions of disbelief.
Too arrogant! Everyone, lets kill them!
The people from Little Mountain Jie dare to come run amok in our Sky Water Jie, everyone,
fight together!
The crowd was extremely furious. Many people had blood-filled eyes as they yearned to fight.
The powers that had been observing from the side were slightly wavering. Their subordinates
had already sank into argument.
Listen well.
Zuo Mo coldly stated.
For some reason, there seemed to be a fire burning in his chest. While in Little Mountain Jie, he
had assumed that after leaving Little Mountain Jie he would find paradise. Yet what he never
thought was that he would immediately encounter something that broke through his bottom line
in Sky Water Jie.
He thought of those flower slave with scattered minds and dazed expressions, entirely wrapped
in ling flowers.
The scornful ruckus in the surroundings entered his ears. He wanted to laugh, but he found that
he wasnt able to laugh. There seemed to be a breath stuck at his chest. Savagery and killing
intent twisted and roiled in his chest.
Therefore, he spoke.
The surroundings instantly became silent.
I dont care who you are. If you want to fight, fight. His eyes were deep, and his voice seemed
to float across from far away. Dont waste words. We cant compare to you, we are much
cleaner and in the open.
The surroundings were deathly silent. The people looked dazedly at the Master of Golden Crow
City in the air. No one had expected that the Master of Golden Crow City would say such
arrogant and tyrannical words at such a time! Was this person crazy! Did he really think he could
really do what he wanted in Sky Water Jie with just the people he had?
Everyone was shocked by Zuo Mos words. No one spoke.
Zuo Mo slowly looked around. His sharp gaze made many people have the impulse to turn their
face away.
He raised his right hand in the air.
Anyone that attacks, kill them!
The voice was like the wind and snow that blew in the winter, not loud, but it was chilling to the
bone as it swept everyones hearts.
No matter if it was Vermillion Bird Camp, or Guard Camp, everyone, including the forging
division, all of them felt their blood boil. An indescribable feeling came from their hearts. They
couldnt help but shout together, Kill!
The shouts of several thousand people together were like thunder as it spread.

The Sky Water Jie xiuzhe that had been wanting to fight were all stunned by this shout. Their
slightly heated heads instantly cleared. They had never heard such a fierce and domineering
presence from any other troop.
The Master of Golden Crow City and Hundred Flower Alliance had personal grievances. That
wasnt a secret in Sky Water Jie. Ever since the Master of Golden Crow City had led tens of
thousands of people out of Little Mountain Jie, he had instantly entered the attention of the large
powers of Sky Water Jie. The origins of the Master of Golden Crow City were mysterious and
were hard to find. But the presence of the Hundred Flower Alliance insignia on the five slave
transporting boats gave them a great deal to speculate on.
One factor for their attention was that they desired the wealth of the Master of Golden Crow
City. Supposedly, the five slave transporting boats were packed with large numbers of talismans
and materials. After defeating Hundred Flower Alliance, the spoils would be even richer, and
greed made their hearts move.
Another factor was the rejection of Little Mountain Jie xiuzhe by Sky Water Jie xiuzhe. The
factions were especially unaccepting of any power that could destabilize their influence.
Just as the factions looked at each other and wanted to discuss, their expressions changed, and
looked towards the sky.
Large patches of dots appeared in the sky. Before they could see clearly, the blinding sword
energy that lit up when people were flying on the sword at their fastest speed lit up the entire sky,
and forced them to narrow their eyes.
City Master!
Ha! Its the City Master!
The shouts came like a tide.

These Little Mountain Jie xiuzhe that had come to help were very excited at this time. All of the
surviving xiuzhe from Little Mountain Jie were ningmai, and they were in their forties or above.
They were used to the way of the world. However, none of these people could keep their
composure. Fei Shan was not an exception. He found he could not calm down.
He suddenly recalled the magnificent battles at Golden Crow City. They were deeply embedded
in his heart. He still remembered his emotions at that time, especially when the City Master had
led everyone to swear at the Clear Sky Old Forefather. He had imagined how exhilarating it
would be to fight under the command of the Master of Golden Crow City. He hadnt thought
such a day would really come. He was very excited.
The Master of Golden Crow City looked to be in his early twenties. Among these fifty and sixty
year old ningmai, he was somewhat outrageously young. But this youth that was outrageously
young seemed to have a charisma that made people trust and obey him, and to be willing to fight
for him!
The Sky Water Jie xiuzhe jumped in fright, and hurriedly rode their swords to flee.

In a short while, all of the Sky Water Jie xiuzhe had left the enormous Hundred Flower Valley.
This change was so sudden that some Little Mountain Jie xiuzhe were too excited and wanted to
chase before they were pulled back by their fellows.

Stop shouting! Listen to the City Master! Which of you is more able than City Master!
Everyone listen to the City Master!
The heads of the little factions in this crowd of xiuzhe spoke, and those xiuzhe making a fuss
instantly closed their mouths. In terms of command, no one dared to compete against Zuo Mo.
At the beginning, Zuo Mo was quite puzzled. When he was informed that these xiuzhe had all
heard that he was in danger and came to help, he was dumbstruck where he stood. He was very
moved. Truthfully, he had never thought of these people when he fought with Clear Sky Old
Forefather. He just did it for himself.
So he had never thought these people would remember this.
His heart was very warm. The darkness created by Hundred Flower Alliance was swept away.
The sun seemed much brighter. He bowed towards the people, This one thanks everyone here!
This group of xiuzhe instantly became panicked.
What is City Master doing?
City Master saved our lives, this is what we should do.
Yes, yes
The people spoke over each other as they returned the bow.
After standing up, Zuo Mo swept the surroundings and said with a smile, Lets go down to
rest!
The people all agreed and landed on a mountain in Hundred Flower Valley.
Everyone felt very close upon seeing each other, and they were even noisier when they gathered
together. Each person had a sunny smile on their face. Some chatty people had grouped together
and started to converse.
The heads of some of the factions were circled around Zuo Mo as they held a discussion.
City Master, I just received news. Cloud Divine Sect and Wood Sword Sect have gathered more
than ten smaller sects and are planning to attack us tomorrow, a faction head said worriedly. To
be able to become a leader, he naturally had his talents. This leaders abilities could not be
underestimated as he was be able to place spies in Bright Water City so quickly.
Seeing many people were unmoved, he hurriedly explained the status of Cloud Divine Sect and
Wood Sword Sect in Sky Water Jie. After his explanation, everyone all inhaled sharply.
Zuo Mos expression was normal as he raised his folded hands to this leader. I have not asked
for this big brothers name.
This leader said with some panic, City Master is really troubling this one. This one is Zheng
Wei. City Master can just call me by name. Dont say anything more about big brother.
Zuo Mo smiled. Can Head Zheng give us some more details?
Zheng Wei hurriedly narrated the news that he had just received from the beginning, and
introduced the sects. After he finished, everyone was silent. The other sides strength far
surpassed their imagination.
If there really were so many people
Everyone turned to look at Zuo Mo.
Zuo Mo unconsciously furrowed his brow. He felt shocked at this news. If he had received this
news in any other circumstances, he would only do one thing: take everyone and flee.
But
Right now, he would not flee. He was sure that if he fled, the other xiuzhe of Little Mountain Jie
would become the targets to vent hatred. The xiuzhe of Sky Water Jie would use this chance to
weaken the powers of the Little Mountain Jie xiuzhe until they were sure the xiuzhe of Little
Mountain Jie were not a threat to them.

He previously had not felt these xiuzhe had any connection to him, but now that he knew he
could not just leave and end it.
Many paper cranes suddenly flew in from the sky and into the crowd of people.
Ha, Li Xiao Si can arrive tonight!
I just knew they wouldnt be able to stop themselves. Ha ha, Old Man Yang has his brothers and
is hurrying over!
Several paper cranes flew into Zheng Weis hands. After Zheng Wei finished reading, he was
overjoyed. He said excitedly, City Master, theyve all come! Everyone is coming!
A blush came onto Gongsun Chas face. His smile was even more bashful and shy as his eyes
flashed with an unusual brightness. Shu Long stood silently beside Zuo Mo, but his heavy
breathing exposed the desire for battle inside.
Zuo Mos mood was unsteady. He suddenly stood up as he looked towards Bright Water City.
Well then lets f***ing fight!
Translator Ramblings: This really isnt a cliffhanger. A battle is coming and Zuo Mos good deed
of killing Clear Sky Old Forefather has really paid off for him now.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Twenty Move Out
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Three Hundred and Twenty Move Out
The night came.
The mountain peaks of Hundred Flower Valley were filled with light and sound.
Zuo Mo stood at the highest mountain peak. The campground below was very busy. His gaze
turned to the empty darkness that held unpredictable dangers. He knew that many eyes were
staring back at him from the darkness. The people were waiting for tomorrow to come.
But
Thick clouds blanketed the entire sky. There wasnt one thread of moonlight. A hint of mirth
floated at the corner of his lips.

Ma Fan was sneaking in the darkness like a ghost. His movements were soundless. What was
even more astounding was that none of his movements created any ripples of ling power. Lei
Peng and the others that were watching from far away had expressions of admiration.
Ma Fan had taught all of them hidden movement spells, but when Ma Fan activated the spells, he
wasnt just slightly more familiar with them. His actions were light, and relaxed.
As expected of the core that Lil Miss had appointed!
Ma Fan crouched as he moved stealthily like an intangible shadow, he was merged into the
darkness. The noises from Hundred Flower Valley could be heard from afar, and contrasted
against the silence of the surroundings. He suddenly thought of his life in the past, before he had
encountered Boss. He had frequently had to do work that required travelling in the night.
He did not like darkness.
At that time, he had only wanted to find a steady job and not have to fight for his life in the
shadows. After the calamity of Little Mountain Jie, his situation had deteriorated even more.

Fortunately, he had several good skills and managed to survive, but the desire for a stable life
had gotten stronger.
He wasnt a person with ambition. Being appointed the core by Lil Miss had not made him
happy. It was the opposite. The training that he had done far surpassed everyone else. He
improved very quickly. Even now, he was one of the two people that had the most influence in
Sky Peak Platoon.
He had originally assumed he would quickly feel tired. This life of training every day was not
something he wanted. But to his shock, he found he did not dislike it like he had predicted. He
had started to accept this troop and gradually started to like this troop.
It wasnt for the stimulation of battle, or for those spells and formations, but for hope. This troop,
without him noticing it made him feel hope, feel sunshine. Even if he was walking in the
darkness, he didnt have any negative feelings like he did in the past. Every person behind his
back made him feel safe and trusted.
Thinking about that, his eyes unconsciously glanced to his side. The space there was empty.
Usually Xie Shan would appear at that spot. A few days ago Xie Shan had entered secluded
meditation, and had not come out even now. He couldnt help but feel slightly worried. After
being paired together for such a long time, they cooperated very well, and had great feelings for
each other.
His expression suddenly shifted. He stopped his nonsensical thinking, and his figure paused.
Everyone instantly became nervous.
Without any words, everyone spread out and silently advanced forwards.

Two people were hiding in a tree.


Hmph, I want to see how long these people from Little Mountain Jie can be happy for! one of
the people said furiously.
Ha, daylight will be the time of their execution! The other person said greedily, Supposedly,
they are swimming in wealth. I wonder if we can get one or two items?
Please, were just assigned to watch the wind, what hopes do we have of getting anything good?
Its already pretty good to get some third-grade jingshi.
Hey, the sect is pretty generous this time. Twenty pieces of third-grade jingshi, thats enough for
us to use for a while.
Twenty pieces? Hmph, I wonder how much will remain by the time we get them?
The two people suddenly felt a cold flash against their necks. Their pupils suddenly expanded
but they were not able to make any sound. Several shadows appeared by their corpses. It was Ma
Fan and the others.
Tenth one! Nian Lu said lightly.
The other side really had sent out a great number of scouts around Hundred Flower Valley. In
this little while, they had gotten rid of ten scouts. It was smooth sailing for these people of Sky
Peak Platoon that comprehended sword essence to do ambushes.
Ma Fan carefully stripped the two people clean. Seeing there was nothing suspicious, he raised
his head. We need to be quick. It is almost one oclock.
Everyone had hurried expressions.
Almost one oclock

Ma Fan led everyone to quickly leave and search for the next target. They were silently but
rapidly advancing along a path that was very out of the way. Along the way, they occasionally
got rid of some scouts. But this road was really far out of the way, and they did not encounter too
many scouts.
When they came out of a mountain valley, they could see Bright Water City and its lights. Bright
Water River was serene and silent in the night. Ma Fan released a breath.
It was not yet one oclock.
He nodded at Lei Peng and Nian Lu behind him. The two understood and quickly disappeared
into the night. The remaining people were divided into several groups that disappeared behind
the two people.
Ma Fan looked at the three people remaining beside him and said lightly, Everyone, rest for a
while.
Finishing, he crossed his legs and sat. The other three did not waste words and also meditated.

In a deep valley that was once the area that Hundred Flower Alliance kept its flower slaves. The
location was very out-of-the-way and hidden. Zuo Mo had already looted the entire mountain
valley, and left nothing behind. This empty mountain valley was filled with seated people at this
moment.
Zong Ru said in a light voice next to Gongsun Chas ear. Daren, its one.
The smile on Gongsun Chas face grew with a bashfulness that could not be hidden. He opened
his eyes that flashed with a pressuring sharpness. Depart.
A troop silently advanced along a narrow mountain valley. It was possible to see figures flashing
along the two sides of the mountain valley. The troop did not slow down at all. Everyone knew
that those were the members of Sky Peak Platoon. They had swept this path clean.

Guarding at the mouth of the valley, Ma Fan suddenly opened his eyes, and saw a shadowy
troop. His heart finally landed. They had not failed the mission that Lil Miss had given them.
The troop silently streamed and flew out of the valley. The dense woods outside the mountain
valley gave them the best concealment.
When Gongsun Cha walked out of the mountain valley, he suddenly stopped in his steps and
turned to look at the highest mountain peak. He couldnt help but lightly laugh.
Shixiong, enjoy getting blown on by the wind.
After watching as the troop disappeared in the night, Ma Fan moved away his eyes and said
contentedly, Lets go back!

Wood Sword Sect.


Master, let this disciple be first tomorrow! a xiuzhe with handsome features couldnt help but
say. He was Yan Yangs beloved disciple, Gao Xiu, and in charge of Wood Sword Camp.
Yan Yang looked with benevolent affection at Gao Xiu. He had put great effort onto Gao Xiu.
Gao Xiu had not failed his expectations to be in charge of Wood Sword Camp before he was

twenty-five. What many people did not know was that Gao Xiu had just received the White
Silver battle general jade medal.
To be able to become a White Silver battle general at twenty five, this talent was enough to
dominate all of Sky Water Jie and no one could rival him.
He could understand his disciples desire for battle. Just having received the White Silver battle
general jade medal, he desired to use real combat to train himself.
Dont worry, you cant even avoid the fight if you wanted to tomorrow, Yan Yang said with a
smile. Then his expression became serious. But you have to be careful. There are two troops
under the command of the Master of Golden Crow City. To be able to kill their way out of Little
Mountain Jie, they naturally are very strong. You are familiar with Rong Wei. That little girls
eyes arent bad. If she thinks they are elite, then they are definitely elite!
This disciple will definitely fight with everything, and not fail the reputation of our sect! Gao
Xiu said.
Yan Yang shook his head. You are wrong. My demand of you is not to make great
achievements, but to make no mistakes.
Gao Xiu raised his head in shock.
Then why did I make the wager with He Qiu when I know the other is an elite force? Yang
said meaningfully. Wood Sword Camp is like a sword, and it needs to be sharpened before it
can show its power. This Master of Golden Crow City is the whetstone. But we need to be
careful or we may break against it. You need to be especially careful of your safety. As long as
you are here, Wood Sword Camp is here, and you will not want for opportunities.
Gao Xiu was moved, and he respectfully bowed. This disciple understands.
Yan Yang suddenly asked, What is the situation at Hundred Flower Valley?
Gao Xiu hurriedly said, The Little Mountain Jie xiuzhe of this area have almost all gathered at
Hundred Flower Valley. There are also many Little Mountain Jie xiuzhe that are heading over
from all places.
The Master of Golden Crow City really has skill to have such a high reputation among this
group of people! Yan Yang praised, If we give him the time, he may become a warlord. Right,
where is he now? Keep track of his movements.
He is on the main peak of Hundred Flower Valley. Our people have been keeping an eye on him
from afar. Gao Xiu said with a smile, Supposedly, he has been standing in the wind. He must
be having a headache over tomorrows battle!
A strong dragon cannot suppress the local snakehead, you have to securely remember this, and
not do as the Master of Golden Crow City is doing.
This disciple understands.

Zuo Mo stood at the top of the mountain as the cold wind blew. He couldnt help but swear,
What stupid plan needs ge to stand up here in the wind for the whole night. If this keeps on
going, ge will go crazy in the wind!
A Gui silently sat next to him. Other than when he fought, wherever Zuo Mo went, she would
follow him like a puppet. Lil Black was snoozing on A Guis head. Lil Fire and Lil Pagoda
were full of energy as they rolled around on her body happily. Silly Bird was silently standing
next to A Gui. When she heard Zuo Mos words, she couldnt help but roll her eyes.
Somewhat bored, Zuo Mo reached out to Lil Fire. Lil Fire, come over.

Hearing this, Lil Fire instantly joyfully flew in front of Zuo Mo. Zuo Mo grabbed Lil Fire. It
was very soft, and nice to grasp. Both of his hands were grasping Lil Fire as he put Lil Fire in
front of his eyes in curiosity. He tightened and loosened his grip. Hm, why arent you sprouting
fire?
Lil Pagoda who had also wanted to join in saw the situation and instantly shrank back.
The pitiful Lil Fire was kneaded in Zuo Mos hands until it sprouted a small flame. However, it
never could have thought Zuo Mo was even more motivated, and kneaded even more happily.
So interesting! Very interesting!
Lil Fire became a bag that could sprout fire. With a squeeze, it would sprout a thread of fire. Lil
Fire chirped sorrowfully, but no matter how it struggled, it could not escape these demonic
hands, and could only sprout fire in humiliation.
Lil Pagoda ran to A Guis head, and watched sympathetically with Lil Black at Lil Fire.
Zuo Mos hand suddenly felt pain and uncontrollably relaxed. Lil Fire took the chance and
broke free of the demonic hands.
Zuo Mo turned his face. What welcomed him was Silly Birds gaze filled with scorn. Just now, it
had been her that pecked Zuo Mos hand.
He looked dazedly at Silly Bird and was astounded.
That peck was so strong!
He had the Great Day mo physique but he couldnt keep his grip under the peck
He looked with disbelief at Silly Bird but the scene that followed shocked him even more!
Translator Ramblings: So one sect leader has now explained his motivations. Its an acceptable
reason though it is risky. True combat is needed to gain experience so one can survive in such
chaotic times. hes a good leader and master like Tian Song Zi, even if he is underestimating the
danger.
How many of you thought that Zuo Mo was going to wait with his troops for the other group to
come and then have a fight at the arranged time? This is the guy that used formations in a Sword
Test Conference, created a great trap when he was the weaker side, and also loves to to gang up
on opponents. Sneak attacks is a rational path to take.
The balance between peace and war chapters is hard to maintain. Im afraid that Fang Xiang
likes to make his peaceful parts peacefully long, and his battles long at the buildup with a short
payoff. I would offer the chapter when this arc ends but .. its going to be a secret.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Twenty One Ambush
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom and warlord212.
Chapter Three Hundred and Twenty One Ambush
Silly Bird suddenly turned her head around, and her bird eyes stared at the thick cloud cover far
in the sky.
It was the first time Zuo Mo had seen Silly Bird have such a vicious gaze as though she had seen
something she extremely disliked.
Just as Zuo Mo was puzzled, Silly Bird suddenly gave a long call, her wings spreading, and then
she disappeared. Zuo Mo only saw a shadow fly by. When he managed to react, he saw a
shocking scene.
Silly Bird was like a bolt of grey lightning that entered the thick black clouds.

What was this bird doing


Zuo Mo dazedly looked at the clouds, his mind unable to react. Just as he prepared to go and take
a look, a shadow flew close and appeared in front of him. It was Silly Bird!
There were traces of blood on Silly Birds long beak. Her gaze was vicious as she puffed her
head and chest high, her body wrapped in killing intent. She called out a clear long note that rang
into the distance.
A shadow suddenly dropped out of the clouds. Zuo Mo saw it clearly. It was a Black Bat. The
stomach of this Black Bat had been eviscerated, exposing the innards, and it clearly wouldnt
live. Black Bats were third-grade ling beasts. Their ears were extremely keen and they were
mostly used for information gathering.
However, it was not easy to raise a Black Bat. They were very expensive. Normal scouts couldnt
afford them.
Master of Golden Crow City! You dare to kill my Black Bat, tomorrow, I will make you die!
A males shout came far out in the distance inside the clouds.
Zuo Mo ignored it. His eyes were tightly locked onto Silly Bird. The viciousness in Silly Birds
eyes quickly retreated, and she quickly became as proud and aloof as she usually was. If it wasnt
for the traces of blood still on Silly Birds beak, Zuo Mo definitely would have thought what just
happened was his delusion.
He huddled in front of Silly Bird.
Oh, you look very normal.
Silly Bird rolled her eyes and ignored him. She raised her bird head up high, strutted her bird
walk, and left.
When did this bird get so vicious? Zuo Mo rubbed his chin as he said to himself. He wanted to
chase, but when he looked at the surroundings and remembered that he still had the mission of
keeping the other sides spies occupied, he could only stand on the mountain to be blown by the
wind.
He shook his head, and decided to ignore the bird. After she had gone out to show off last time,
she hadnt been very normal.
A Gui, do you think we can win?
A Gui was sitting woodenly.
Zuo Mo did not care and sat down next to A Gui. Looking out at the dark black sky, he became
unfocused.
He didnt notice an extremely faint, almost imperceptible purple light flash suddenly through A
Guis empty eyes.

Bright Water City was surrounded by a large river. This large river was Bright Water River, and it
was the origin of Bright Water Citys name. In the dark, Bright Water River was so quiet it
seemed to be sleeping. There werent any waves. Suddenly, the waters surface started to ripple
and a figure slowly rose out of the river water.
This person looked around for a while, saw no one was around, and took out a little black
umbrella.
The little umbrella flew out of his hand and turned to an intangible black silk that floated onto
the sky above the river.

A moment later, figures rose up from the river water. In the span of a few breaths, the surface of
the river was filled with people. These people silently floated into the sky above the river.
This Black Ling Hiding Umbrella really lives up to being a fourth-grade talisman. Wei Ran
lifted his head to look at the black silk that was floating in the sky. This ethereal black silk
covered all of them. They couldnt be seen from the outside. This Black Ling Hiding Umbrella
was one of the fourth-grade talismans from Boss spoils. It could hide people, and more
importantly, it could stop ling energy ripples from spreading into the surrounding area.
Even as he praised, he took out jingshi and started to recover his ling power.
No one spoke. Everyone silently recovered their ling power.
Gongsun Cha didnt need to recover ling power. He examined the nearby Bright Water City, and
his lips curved. The powers of Bright Water City clearly didnt think highly of them. Bright
Water City almost had no defenses at all. The Black Ling Hiding Umbrella was a powerful
talisman, but there were many formations and talismans that could detect it.
But they hadnt encountered even one of them.
The loose defense was full of holes in Gongsun Chas eyes. He thought it was a pity that they
were not here to attack the city.
One hour later, everyone finished their recovery.
The Black Ling Hiding Umbrella was put away. It could not be moved when it was activated.
That was its only flaw.
Vermillion Bird Camp flew twenty zhang into the sky. Gongsun Cha sat on the broad Green
Cloud Sword. Gazing down at Bright Water City, the corners of his mouth moved up. A cold
light flashed through his eyes as he said lightly, Start!
Hiss!
Vermillion Bird Camp suddenly moved.

The lanterns on the streets gave off a warm yet bright light. Tonights Bright Water City was
excited yet frantic. Large amounts of xiuzhe had gathered in Bright Water City. They were
waiting for dawn. The actions taken this time were the most significant ones in Bright Water
Citys recent history. Everyone was full of excitement and anticipation.
Wood Sword Camp and Flying Cloud Camp had already reached Bright Water City and made
camp. The other sects were urgently gathering combat xiuzhe in order to attend this great
banquet.
The tea houses and bars were filled with people. People even filled the streets.
The passer-by on the streets suddenly heard a strange sound. They stilled, and couldnt resist
raising their heads.
Large numbers of figures flashed through the sky, and caused endless howls.
Hiss, everyone without exception inhaled sharply.
This troops presence was shocking and were definitely an elite force. Many people started to
speculate which sects elite force had arrived. This grand banquet had attracted the gaze of
countless sects.
The xiuzhe flashed rapidly through the sky. Before they could react, the people had disappeared.
So strong, I dont know which sect had sent them. This really is a great force!
Hee hee, tomorrow is going to be a spectacle!
Everyone became more excited as they chatted.


Gao Xiu came from the sect leaders place and returned to the Vast Sun Hall. The Wood Sword
Camp xiuzhe he encountered along the way bowed to him. Everyone could not disguise the
excitement on their faces. They had hurried to Bright Water City in the afternoon and camped in
Vast Sun Hall.
Gao Xius vice-commander and a group of xiuzhe came over. Daren, what did Sect Leader
say?
Were up first tomorrow! Gao Xiu said with a smile, excitement flashing through his eyes.
Great!
Ha ha, well let the people from Flying Cloud Camp to see how strong we are!
The xiuzhe of Wood Sword Camp cheered excitedly. They were the best disciples of Wood
Sword Sect. Hadnt they trained for decades just for this day?
Gao Xiu suddenly furrowed his brows. He could hear trembling vibrations coming close to them.
He knew what it was. That was the sound produced when a large troop flew by. The other xiuzhe
were also alerted to the sound.
Which bastard dares to fly above our heads? someone couldnt help swearing.
Camps like Wood Sword Camp were very wary of people flying over their heads, and all the
sects would try to avoid flying over other camps. This was an unwritten rule.
Has Flying Wind Camp come to Bright Water City? Gao Xiu suddenly asked.
They arrived four hours ago, his subordinate answered.
Gao Xius expression suddenly changed as he shouted, Enemy attack!
The black patch of xiuzhe appeared with astonishing speed in everyones vision!
Boom!
Countless sword energies rained down like a storm.
The black night was suddenly lit up by countless grand sword energies. The entire Vast Sun Hall
was completely covered by the other sides sword energies.
The xiuzhe around Gao Xiu all paled but they were well-trained and activated their ling shields to
protect Gao Xiu. Some other Wood Sword Camp xiuzhe gritted their teeth and shouted, Kill!
Hundreds of figures flew up against the rain of sword energies.
Pew pew pew!
The ling shield of a Wood Sword xiuzhe cracked. He wasnt able to make any response before
dozens of sword energies pierced his body. Dozens of blood blossoms formed. Under the rain of
sword energies, the sprays of blood were like explosions on these Wood Sword camp xiuzhe.
The grand Vast Sun Hall was instantly destroyed by the sword energy rain and was left riddled
with holes.
You dare!
An angry shout suddenly sounded like lightning. Right after, a middle-aged xiuzhe holding an
almond-yellow little flag waved out layers of yellow light. When the dense sword energy rain hit
these yellow light curtains, they were only able to make ripples.
The morale of the Wood Sword Camp xiuzhe increased.

Ha, jindan, Lil Miss lightly breathed.

Just as the middle-aged xiuzhe appeared, Wei Ran had locked onto the other. What he hadnt
expected was the other had moved faster than he did. He snorted coldly, and took his divisions
xiuzhe to fly out in an arc into the sky. Then then turned and started to dive.
Their speed suddenly increased, a piercing sound roared in the air.
Even among the sounds of battle, the howling that caused peoples scalp to prickle, Wei Ran
raised the flying sword in his hand. The xiuzhe behind him all raised their flying swords.
Hundred Kill!
Wei Ran suddenly bellowed, the flying sword in his hand heavily striking down.
Hundred Kill!
The Second Division behind him all shouted, their flying sword striking down.
A terrifying sword energy more than twenty zhang long destructively tore through the air as it
descended from the sky and landed heavily against the yellow light curtain.
Ping!
The yellow light curtain suddenly splintered and only half of the enormous sword energy was
left.
A thread of blood came from the corner of the middle-aged persons mouth. Viciousness flashed
through his eyes. He raised his head and saw the half section of sword energy coming towards
him. He said, Good attack! He pointed with the almond-yellow flag. A blinding yellow light
collided directly with the remaining section of sword energy.
Boom!
Wei Ran only saw a patch of whiteness and was not able to see anything. He gritted his teeth,
gathered his last bit of ling power, and threw what was in his hand down hard.
Just as the item in his hand left, a large force passed over him. He couldnt control his body, and
was thrown into the air.
Up in the sky, almost lacking all energy, he gave a smile, Idiot!
Boom!
Even more powerful explosions came from below.
Sonic Lightning Walnuts!
He had just thrown down a Sonic Lightning Walnut. The twelve division leaders had all been
given a Sonic Lightning Walnut by Boss!
Before the Hundred Kill attack, he had already prepared the Sonic Lightning Walnut.
Relying on just Hundred Kill wasnt enough to kill a jindan, but after a Hundred Kill, even a
jindan couldnt escape the Sonic Lightning Walnut.
Booooooooooooooooom!
A rapid series of sonic lightning explosions came from below. At this time, all of the division
leaders had bombed down the Sonic Lightning Walnuts that they had held.
Before they could clearly see what the explosions did, a voice came from beside their ear,
Retreat!
Translator Ramblings: People in Sky Water Jie are too used to peacetime. If there was no Pu Yao,
there would not be Lil Miss as he is now, full of cunning and honed in strategies for fighting and
for war. Lil Miss paid his tuition in pain and defeat so Im not sure if Zuo Mo or Gongsun Cha
got the better deal from Pu Yao.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Twenty Two Victory!

This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Three Hundred and Twenty Two Victory!
On the mountaintop, Zuo Mo saw the blinding light appearing above Bright Water City and
suddenly jumped up from the ground as he roared with laughter, Yes!

Immediately after, blinding sword energies lit up the sky like a meteor shower that flew towards
Hundred Flower Valley. At this time, Vermillion Bird Camp no longer needed to conceal
themselves. The people that had ling power remaining all channelled their ling power to draw out
blinding lights.
The xiuzhe of Bright Water City all finally reacted. Sword xiu continuously flew into the sky, and
chased after the the blinding lights!
Soon, a grand scene appeared in the sky. Following after thousands of sword energies were an
even greater number of sword energies. Almost all the sword xiu of Bright Water City had come
out. The most eye-catching was Flying Cloud Camp that flew at the very front. Flying Cloud
Camp were well trained and responded the quickest. After the twelve Sonic Lightning Walnuts
exploded together, they had also been affected by the power.
Hu Shans eyes could spit fire. He had never thought the Master of Golden Crow City would be
so insane and daring to this level! He didnt bother looking down at Bright Water City. After such
a terrifying explosion, there wouldnt be anyone left alive at the campsite of Wood Sword Camp.
Before this night, he had never thought that Wood Sword Camp would be destroyed in a single
night, and be destroyed so completely.
The relationship between Flying Cloud Camp and Wood Sword Camp couldnt be called
harmonious, but
He gritted his teeth. He felt there was a burst of fire inside his chest that wanted to get out! This
group of bastards!
The distance between the Vermillion Bird camp and Flying Cloud camp remained steady as the
chase continued, neither side gaining on the other. Flying Cloud Camp had reacted the quickest
and so they tightly followed behind the other. Vermillion Bird Camp had made great
expenditures in the ambush just now, and was at their weakest. If they could catch up, Flying
Cloud Camp would definitely have the advantage.
In the night, the two sides did not have any care, and let all of their ling power go. One in front
and one in the back, they were like two waves of meteorites that flew with astounding speed
flying along the bottom of a thick cloud layer.
Hu Shan glared with wide eyes. The speed of the other side was beyond their expectations. They
had to use all their ling power and they were just able to keep up. Before, Hu Shan had heard that
the Master of Golden Crow City that had two elite forces. Looking at it now, they really were
elite!
Flying Cloud Camp was famous for its speed, and Hu Shan was shocked that the other was even
faster than they were.
Wait a moment!
The Master of Golden Crow City had two elite forces
Hu Shans heart suddenly sank. His limbs felt cold as his face paled.
Two elite forces where was the other elite force?

Not good!
At this moment, a deep voice sounded out from the cloud layer.
Kill!
Thousands of people shouted together, Kill!
Hu Shan felt his vision blur. Countless black snakes suddenly burrowed out of the cloud layer
and rushed towards them!
Their speed had been raised to the maximum. They didnt even have the time to think, much less
dodge, before these black snakes had reached them. Hu Shan could clearly see the fangs of the
black snakes.
He watched as the black snake penetrated his body. Disbelief and shock remained in Hu Shans
wide eyes.
He almost couldnt believe he would die so easily.
The moment the black snake entered his body, he felt his body become cold as something icy
passed through his body. The channels in his body were destroyed, and he lost control of his
body. His body flipped as it fell through the air, and crashed heavily on the ground.
Pia pia pia!
The sounds of impact were like raindrops that did not end.
Each of the black snakes penetrated a body and came out the back, its features twisted. With the
remainder of its power, it usually would penetrate between three to five people!
This change happened in a flash, so quick that people were basically unable to react. Flying
Cloud Camp instantly descended into chaos. They seemed to have been heavily swatted. The
troop was scattered by the charge of black energy, and were left with heavy casualties and
injuries. Due to the speed they were travelling at, the distance between the xiuzhe in the front and
back of the troop was too small. Once the front lines had turned to chaos, the xiuzhe at the back
didnt have the time to respond and they collided together.
The sound of bones cracking, and flesh tearing, as well as grunts and wails appeared
simultaneously in this short moment.
The battle immediately reached its climax, its grandest moment, the time of death!
Like a meteor shower, the beautiful sword energies seemed to have been extinguished by this
black wind, only leaving behind a few that fled in terror.
Sneak attack, baiting, ambush, one tactic after the other. In one night, the two most famous elite
forces of Bright Water City were almost completely destroyed.
At this time, Shu Long showed his rich battle experience. He did not choose to use the
Successive Mo Kill which was more powerful, but used the weaker, and more easily controlled
Little Mo Kill.
The more powerful the xiuzhe were, the more vicious and cruel the battles between them were,
especially large scale battles like this one.
An enormous slave transporting boat emerged from the clouds and appeared in everyones view.
The high speed pursuit had caused the distance between Flying Cloud camp and the other Bright
Water City xiuzhe to increase. Leaving, Shu Long able to leisurely retreat towards Hundred
Flower Valley.
The Bright Water City xiuzhe that managed to arrive could only watch the slave transporting boat
enter the shadows of Hundred Flower Valley.
No one dared to give chase!

Many of them did not understand what was going on. They didnt know what had happened in
Bright Water City, but the destruction of Flying Cloud Camp had happened in front of their eyes.
Just now, the famed Flying Cloud Camp had almost been completely annihilated.
They had personally seen the entire process.
The ease that the Master of Golden Crow City had accomplished this made them feel a boneaching chill. Terror gripped their hearts like the night.
The sky was almost completely filled with xiuzhe from Bright Water City but no one dared to
move closer. The entire sky was unusually quiet with a deathly silence.

This is a good chance to charge and kill, The first words that Gongsun Cha said to Zuo Mo
when he got off the Green Cloud Sword was this.
Zuo Mo understood what Gongsun Cha meant. The other sides morale had reached the bottom.
If he took the xiuzhe of Little Mountain Jie and charged out right now, not even half of the
xiuzhe in the air right now would remain.
But he shook his head and said, This is enough.
His eyes looked at the camp inside the valley that seemed to be boiling, and began wandering off
in thought.
Just as he finished saying this, many people flew from the camp onto the mountaintop.
City Master! Lets attack! They are afraid!
Yes! It is a great chance!
Everyone spoke over each other as they urged Zuo Mo to act. They were the leaders of the
various factions.
Zuo Mo smiled, and a rare expression of solemnity came onto his face. Everyone.
Once he spoke, the noisy crowd instantly quieted.
First, there is something that needs to be told to everyone. Zuo Mo looked at the surroundings
and said, After this matter is over, we will be leaving Sky Water Jie.
These people were all heads, and were smart people. Some were puzzled, some were dazed, but
they all had thoughtful expressions.
But the great majority of everyone will be remaining here. Those people, Zuo Mo pointed at
the xiuzhe in the sky, are mostly normal xiuzhe. If they are killed, we can dust off our asses, and
leave, no problem. But what about you? How will you establish yourselves in Sky Water Jie?
It isnt too great of a problem to offend Cloud Divine Sect and Wood Sword Sect, but if you
offend all of Sky Water Jie, there will be no place for you in Sky Water Jie.
Everyone has come here to seek a chance at survival. No one wants to have come out of Little
Mountain Jie and still fight everyday!
Zuo Mos words caused everyone to be speechless.
This one will remember and accept everyones good will, and is very grateful. This Hundred
Flower Valley and this victory is gifted to everyone.
After today, there will be more xiuzhe that have rushed here. Why dont you build a city here? If
everyone is able to work together, with the precedent of Wood Sword Camp and Flying Cloud
Camp, no one would dare to make trouble.
This way, everyone can have safe and secure days.
In the dark, Zuo Mos smile was like sunlight, his eyes black and bright as they attracted
everyones gaze.


After the dark of the night came the light of dawn.
Many Little Mountain Jie xiuzhe came from all directions to Bright Water City, but before they
could hurry to Bright Water City, the news of the Master of Golden Crow Citys great victory and
the destruction of the Wood Sword and Flying Cloud Camps seemed to grow wings and spread
throughout all of Sky Water Jie. The entire jie was shocked.
Just as the large factions of Sky Water Jie speculated on the future, the news that a city was being
built in Hundred Flower Valley spread through Sky Water Jie.
The new city was called Little Mountain City.
Every Little Mountain Jie xiuzhe that was hurrying towards Bright Water City was reenergized
and travelled day and night to fly towards Hundred Flower Valley.
In a short few days, almost half of all the Little Mountain Jie xiuzhe had gathered in Hundred
Flower Valley.
All of the major factions in Sky Water Jie were attentively watching the movements of Hundred
Flower Valley. They had originally assumed that Wood Sword Sect and Cloud Divine Sect would
use their entire sect to exact vengeance, but unexpectedly, both sects maintained their silence and
did not act.
By this time, almost eight-tenths of Little Mountain Jie xiuzhe had gathered in Hundred Flower
Valley, and it was very busy.
The Master of Golden Crow City who was the subject of great hope had closed his doors to
guests and cultivated every day.
You arent going to help them? Gongsun Cha asked.
This isnt something we should be involved in. Zuo Mo shook his head, and then muttered,
Ge feels burdened with just the amount of people there already is. If there is any more people,
ge will find a tree and hang himself.
Oh, thats right. Lil Miss nodded his head, and smacked his lips. He said regretfully, We
didnt gain much from this battle.
A little unprofitable. These words poked Zuo Mos wound. He couldnt help but have an
expression of heartache. They had invested greatly in this big victory. Just the dozen Sonic
Lightning Walnuts were an astounding expense, but there were no spoils. It was the first time
they had a battle with just expenses and no gains.
It will count as thanks to them, Zuo Mo comforted himself, but the heartache in his words
didnt lessen.
Feeling the strong effect this topic had on him, Zuo Mo decided to change the topic. He turned
and asked Shu Long, How is A Wen? Is he adjusting well? What about those flower slaves?
Shu Long respectfully said, A Wens injuries should completely heal in about a fortnight. The
flower slaves are much better after cultivating the spell that daren taught them, but their situation
will take some time until it can be clearly determined.
Thats good. Zuo Mo felt his mood was much better.
Who said it, doing good deeds made one feel better. Even though it did not feel as good as
jingshi, but Zuo Mos mood became much lighter.
The cloud suddenly started to gather in the sky above Hundred Flower Valley.
In less than ten breathes, there were dark clouds. The sky turned dark, and a pressuring mood
filled all of Hundred Flower Valley.

Zuo Mo suddenly stood up, his face full of shock. Its Xie Shan!
Translator Ramblings: Gongsun Chas plan is a complete success. Zuo Mo and Gongsun Cha
only attacked the two sects and not Bright Water City because the two sects said they would
attack and attacking in response is not exactly unacceptable. The consequences are just the hatred
of two sects which would have been unavoiable anyways since the two sects would have
attacked and lost. However, attacking Bright Water City would be unprovoked since Bright
Water City hasnt done anything major to Zuo Mos group. This would mean that Zuo Mo
becomes enemies with all of Bright Water City and possibly the entire jie which is not something
Zuo Mo can face even with the people from Little Mountain Jie.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Twenty Three Core
Formation
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Three Hundred and Twenty Three Core Formation
The entire Hundred Flower Valley started to move.
Core formation!
Someone was having their core formation!
Compared to entering the zhuji and ningmai stages, forming the core made a much bigger
spectacle. The sky had just been full of light, but now it was covered in dark clouds. It was
possible to see lightning snakes among the clouds, and five colored auroras flowing by. Many
people couldnt help but have admiring expressions. Everyone caused different apparitions when
they were forming their core. The exact nature of the apparition was related to the xiuzhes own
spells, and the laws that they comprehended.
The changes of the world during core formation was extremely important to a xiuzhe because it
was the first step for a xiuzhe to comprehend the higher levels of the worlds rules. Higher
levelled rules, and deeper comprehension began with the apparition during core formation.
Stepping into this door was a brand new world.
This was core formation! The core formation that countless people dreamed about.
Every xiuzhe that entered ningmai had a dream, core formation.
For the great majority of xiuzhe, jindan was the highest target they purused. It mean greater
power, higher status, more jingshi, and a freer life! In places like Sky Moon Jie and Sky Water
Jie, a jindan was a warlord, and if they didnt want to waste time on mortal matters, any sect
would welcome them with the status of an elder. The tempting benefits meant you did not have
to worry about materials, or jingshi. You had great amounts of time to do anything you wanted.
To get all these benefits, you only needed to become a jindan.
The black clouds in the sky roiled. The five colored aurora would occasionally become rainbows
that then extinguished. It was very attractive. The mood became even tenser.
Zuo Mos mouth was open wide as he looked dazedly at the sky. This was the first time he saw
the process of core formation and it gave him an enormous shock. The black clouds in the sky,
the rainbows that were born and died, all of this shocked him. His consciousness was very
strong, and his sensitivity to ling power surpassed any xiuzhe inside the valley.

He could clearly feel the terrifying ling power that was contained here!
The ling power within a three hundred li radius had suddenly concentrated the moment the black
clouds formed. The ling power had all flowed into this ball of black clouds. If these black clouds
exploded, the power it would release would far surpass the power of twelve Sonic Lightning
Walnut exploding simultaneously.
The entire Hundred Flower Valley would turn to dust. Even Zuo Mo, with his Great Day mo
physique, would not be able to avoid this calamity. The pressure that was released by the black
clouds was purely caused by the sheer enormous volume of ling power it contained!
Zuo Mos expression suddenly became extremely ugly. He noticed many xiuzhe didnt retreat,
but went closer. Core formation was a rare event and had a fatal attraction for everyone. If they
could see a bit, it definitely would be of benefit.
This group of people didnt want to live!
Zuo Mo swore inside and stopped the people going forward, It is dangerous! Come back!
Everyone, retreat out of Hundred Flower Valley!
Fortunately, Zuo Mo held great authority among this group of people. Everyone hesitated, but
they all quickly left Hundred Flower Valley.
Hundred Flower Valley was very close to Bright Water City. Such a strong flow of ling power
had disturbed all of Bright Water City. Xiuzhe from Bright Water City continually flew out of
Bright Water City to look in the direction of Hundred Flower Valley.

After that nights battle, the xiuzhe of Bright Water City changed their attitudes towards the Little
Mountain Jie xiuzhe who were lead by the Master of Golden Crow City, especially jindan xiuzhe.
The ambush during the night had completely destroyed Wood Sword Camp, including one
jindan. Up until now, there were five or six jindan that had died in the hands of the Master of
Golden Crow City.
This was an number that no one could dismiss.
If it was one or two, it could be said to be luck, but five or six was not something that could be
explained by luck. This was why the heavily wounded Wood Sword Sect and Cloud Divine Sect
did not launch a counter-attack.
In the eyes of normal xiuzhe, the power of the Master of Golden Crow City was immeasurable.
They also found that the construction of Little Mountain City did not affect their lives. These
xiuzhe that came from Little Mountain Jie were not as brutal and evil as they had originally
imagined. They were very generous and were deeply liked by merchants. Many merchants
planned on going to Little Mountain City and open up a store.
Core formation, they have someone becoming a jindan!
In the sky, Yan Yangs expression was dark. A malicious look flashed through his eyes.
He Qiu was silently for a moment before he said, Yes, they have become even stronger.
When the figures of Vermillion Bird Camp appeared in the sky, He Qiu sighed. The name of
Vermillion Bird Camp had spread through Sky Water Jie. Everyone knew of them. The
appearance of this troop meant that the Master of Golden Crow City was still wary of them. Yan
Yang did not make a sound. He stared viciously at Vermillion Bird Camp that was swimming
through the air.
It was this troop that had sent Wood Sword Camp to their deaths, and had taken the life of his
beloved disciple.

He definitely would avenge this grievance!


His gaze was dark. The elders of the sect did not agree to allow him using stronger measures. No
elder was willing to fight. This was why he had remained inactive up until now. He did his best
to control the hatred in his heart. He was very clear that only an unconventional move could help
him avenge this grievance. In the entire Sky Water Jie, no sect would publicly stand with him
and become enemies with the Master of Golden Crow City.
Yan Yang did his best to suppress it, but how could he conceal it from the eyes of He Qiu, who
had been his opponent for more than ten years? He Qiu instantly knew Yan Yangs thoughts, but
he did not speak of it. If Yan Yang wanted to jump into the fire pit, he wouldnt stop the other.

At this time, five colored aurora lights suddenly light up the thick cloud layer above Hundred
Flower Valley. It was possible to see the shape of a rainbow-colored ling beast swimming inside.
Zuo Mos expression was nervous. Xie Shan had reached the most crucial time of a core
formation.
He could feel Xie Shan was continuously absorbing ling power from the clouds. That ling beast
that was blurry was very resistant to Xie Shan absorbing ling power. Xie Shan didnt seem to be
in a hurry, and just continuously drew out ling power.
Two hours passed. Xie Shan was still absorbing ling power.
Zuo Mo was filled with shock. Up until now, he could generally estimate how much ling power
Xie Shan had drawn out from the clouds. Jindan xiuzhe were definitely monsters. The amount of
ling power in a ningmai could not compare to what a jindan could contain. No wonder people
commonly say that jindan and ningmai were two different worlds.
Pu Yao appeared out of nowhere. You dont have to be jealous of him. He has a deep base
which is why he has caused such an apparition while he is forming the golden core. If you grasp
all six transformations of the Great Day mo physique, other than some rare powerful jindan, no
other jindan will be a match for you.
Really? Zuo Mo didnt quite believe it. Before today, he hadnt been as fearful of jindan as he
had been in the past, but the powerful apparition of Xie Shans core formation today had once
again shown him the power of jindan xiuzhe.
To be ranked second among brigadier mo physiques, how could it not have any powerful
qualities? Pu Yao smirked coldly.
His direction changed. Even if you do not use the Great Day mo physique, you still dont have
to be afraid of him.
How so? Zuo Mo was slightly interested. After Pu Yao had gotten a jindan last time, he had
become much more energized, and was chattier. What surprised Zuo Mo the most was that this
guy was much more generous than he was in the past. He didnt hide things like spells and yao
arts like he had before.
If you cultivate [Great Thousand Leaf Hands] and [Little Thousand Leaf Hands], even a jindan
isnt a threat! Pu Yao said proudly.
Please, Zuo Mo smirked scornfully, who are you trying to fool! Ive practiced these two, the
power isnt bad, but it isnt enough to take down a jindan.
How much have you cultivated? Pu Yao volleyed back with the same scornful tone. It is a
waste for them to have landed on your hands. Your brain isnt very good. Just cultivate Great
Day mo physique. That is most suited to people with able limbs and simple minds.

He then glanced disdainfully at Zuo Mo, Our yao cultivation has much more to consider than
the dumb mo.
Zuo Mo was not willing to show weakness. He said with a cold smile, Really? But why havent
I ever seen it from this honored Sky Yao?
Pu Yao had a deep hint of mirth at the corner of his mouth. No problem, I can let you see.
Zuo Mos pupils suddenly shrank. A black dot suddenly appeared in front of Pu Yao, a black dot
that was bottomless. When the black dot appeared, it expanded and swallowed the surrounding
space at a rapid speed. Zuo Mo could only stare as the surroundings were being swallowed. His
body could not move.
In the black void, Zuo Mo faced Pu Yao.
This .. what yao art is this? Zuo Mo gaped as he stammered. He looked in all directions.
Everything was a black void.
Pu Yao lowered his head slightly, his blood red pupil narrowing into a line, and the thin lips
slightly curved. [Night Restriction], a very obscure yao art. Finishing, he gave a strange smile.
You are nervous?
Cough! Hearing this, Zuo Mo pretended to cough. Nonsense! Just a yao art that is used for
scares, and you want to make ge nervous, you underestimate ge!
Zuo Mo then said suspiciously, Pu, youve recovered your power?
A little bit. Just a golden core, there wasnt much primary essence.
Zuo Mo sweat when he heard this. Pu Yaos tone made it seem like he was saying a mosquito
didnt have much meat. Those were jindan, not lettuce.
What do you want to do by bringing me to this dark place? Zuo Mos expression was
righteous. Im telling you I have no interest in yao. In the future, I will find a beautiful female
xiu to marry!
Im very interested in you! Pu Yao stared with interest at Zuo Mo like he was seeing some
peerless treasure. His eye was red and shiny.
Zuo Mos hair rose at his gaze.
That that Pu, Xie Shan is undergoing core formation! Ive never seen a core
formation. If I miss this chance, it will be hard to encounter one again, look
Theres nothing to see in a core formation. Pu Yao narrowed up his eyes again, and froze Zuo
Mos heart.
Pu Yao didnt seem normal today!
Zuo Mos heart was beating. An abnormal Pu Yao was much scarier than any jindan.
It was out of my expectations that you could cultivate to Great Day mo physique. Pu Yao
glanced at Zuo Mo and said lightly, The Great Day mo physique is unyielding and powerful.
Ive only seen one mo successfully reach it. Ten years later, I discovered he died.
Died? How did he die? Zuo Mo instinctively asked.
They failed and died during advancement. If xiuzhe fail during advancement, they fail, and they
themselves are not damaged. But the progression of a mo physique is very dangerous. If it fails,
then their soul is destroyed.
Pu Yaos words were like the sharp cold wind of the winter, making Zuo Mos face turn pale
white.
Translator Ramblings: Tradeoffs, faster growth, higher risk of death. Its nice of Pu Yao to tell
Zuo Mo this after such a long time

Xie Shan is the first to reach jindan and this shouldnt be a surprise considering Fang Xiang
mentioned it way back that Xie Shan had humongous ling power stores compared to most
ningmai.
Pu Yao said one golden core and I kept it as such since Fang Xiang wrote it that way. Its
possible that one was eaten to heal himself and he used the second for other purposes.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Twenty Four Ten
Finger Prison
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Three Hundred and Twenty Four Ten Finger Prison
Pu Yaos words made Zuo Mos heart beat rapidly, but he quickly calmed down. After he had
experienced so much, his mind was much stronger than before. Having dealt with Pu Yao for so
long, it was clear that Pu Yao said all this for a reason.
Pu Yao saw that Zuo Mo didnt speak, and was not surprised. He said, Xiu spells, mo skills, yao
arts, the differences between these three are not so absolute and opposed as you imagine. When
you reach the higher levels, you will encounter things you cannot imagine now, like a mo general
suddenly attacking with a sword scripture move, or a xiuzhe casting a yao art. Everyone has
different paths, but they all lead back to the same destination.
Oh, this is just idle talk, this has nothing to do with you. Pu Yaos blood pupil flashed with a
bloody light like a red and glittering ruby. He stared at Zuo Mo, and had an interested expression
as he said amusedly, What I want to say to you is that I am planning on doing a little
experiment.
Zuo Mo suddenly had a bad feeling. What experiment? Hey, Pu Yao, Im telling you, dont do

Hee! Pu Yas blade-like lips slightly curved. His hands spread out like wings, the ten fingers
seemed to be pressed against water and creating ten dots of intangible ripples.
[Ten Finger Prison], that is a place any yao with ambition will go to!
The ten ripples spread, and the space surrounding Zuo Mo started to waver.
When he opened his eyes again, he was dumbstruck where he stood. Above his head, a river
slowly flowed. It was not supported by anything. Zuo Mo could clearly see a rainbow and vivid
schools of fish swimming in the river and the threads of black and green water grasses.
Below his feet was a piece of rock about ten zhang in radius that was floating in the air. In front
of him rocks, large and small, floated without end. The river curved and flowed between these
floating pieces of rock.
Some rocks had flowers and grasses growing vibrantly on them.
Zuo Mos mouth was wide open. Looking at this scene that far surpassed his imagination, he was
flabbergasted.
Oh, this place changed a lot. Pu Yaos mood seemed to be pretty good as he looked around.
After a while, Zuo Mo recovered. He carefully walked to the edge of the rock and looked down.
What was below was a blurry space that nothing could be made out.
Below is the endless void. Dont fall down. Pu Yao smiled freely, If you fall down, I cant
save you.

Zuo Mos body froze as he carefully shrank back to the center of the rock. He suddenly turned to
stare hard at Pu Yao and gritted through his teeth, You perverse renyao! Send ge back!
Hee hee. Pu Yao was not angry. Relax. Right now, you are just a thread of primary soul that
has been pulled into the Ten Finger Prison, its not like your real body came.
Zuo Mo was slightly reassured, but Pu Yaos next words caused the anger in his heart to erupt.
Oh, but if this thread of your soul cant return, it isnt any different than death.
Pu, what do you really want to do? Zuo Mo bit each word out as he asked.
It is such a familiar smell. Pu Yao smelled the air of the Ten Finger Prison and showed an
intoxicated expression. A moment later, he opened his eyes. The Great Day mo physique is
unyielding and peerlessly powerful, you know this. But you definitely dont know that compared
to the strength of the fleshly body, what the Great Day mo physique requires most is the strength
of the inner heart, the strength of the soul, that is the crux to advancement.
This place cannot exercise your body, but it can exercise your heart and soul.
Welcome to the First Finger Prison of the Ten Finger Prison, Vast Water Clear Skies.
Pu Yao bowed his body slightly, and made a very elegant gesture.
Zuo Mo quickly composed himself, and started to patiently listen to Pu Yaos introduction. The
more he heard, the more reassured he was. There was a time limit to the Ten Finger Prison. With
the strength of Zuo Mos consciousness, he could only stay a maximum of four hours in here
each time. Even Pu Yao had no way to change this.
Just four hours. The shadow over Zuo Mos heart instantly dissipated greatly.
Ten Finger Prison is also called the Yao Training Prison. Any yao that has a little bit of
accomplishment would basically have come here. The Yao Art Houses will even form teams and
have events to increase the combat abilities of their students. Oh, you xiuzhe have similar places.
Like Wu Kong Sword Sects sword cave, but that place is very small in comparison. Large sects
like Kun Lun have their own training grounds. They are very big, about ten jie or so. We yao
arent so extravagant. Oh, were so poor theres no other way.
Zuo Mo found that as Pu Yao entered the Ten Finger Prison, his words became more abundant,
and was almost chatty. However, this matched his wishes. He could get some information from
this guys mouth.
Then wont I encounter yao here? Zuo Mo said doubtfully. He then became slightly excited. In
any case, it was just four hours. Thinking that way, this trip to the Ten Finger Prison was more
like a vacation.
Right, Pu Yao then twisted his mouth, but this is the First Finger Prison, they will all just be
beginners.
Oh. If they all like coming here, then this place should have some benefits. Zuo Mo instantly
showed his practical side.
The Ten Finger Prison was supposedly created by an ancient Great Yao, and includes almost all
the yao arts. Of course, thats just a boast, you can just listen to it. But it does have a lot of yao
arts. For example, the First Finger Prison, Vast Water Clear Skies, it is made from thirteen
thousand low-level yao arts. I counted when I was young. Pu Yao said with interest.
Zuo Mo looked at Pu Yao like he was looking at a monster. Alright, this joke was slightly bad.
You were so idle when you were young.
When the admiration in his heart reached his mouth, it became scorn. From this, it was possible
to see that Zuo Mo was still angry over Pu Yao pulling him into the Ten Finger Prison for a four
hour trip.
Yes! Pu Yao responded emotionally as though he was thinking of the times in the past.

Zuo Mos mind shifted. Pu, what were you like when you were young?
A person as weak as you cannot understand.
Pu Yaos answer instantly smashed the remaining good feeling in Zuo Mos heart. He rolled his
eyes. So the powerful you came here to count? Counted all the way to thirteen thousand?
Ha ha! Pu Yao laughed freely.
Zuo Mo flew among the rocks. He was very careful. Every rock, flower, grass, and drop of water
here was related to the yao arts. Of the forty-six pieces of rock Zuo Mo had passed, every one of
them had a different attribute.
Pu Yao continuously explained the different yao arts to him, how to use them, and how to
deconstruct them. Zuo Mo found that Pu Yao actually did have some skill. Pu Yao could
confidently talk about every kind of yao art, explain it effortlessly and was simple to understand.
Having already learned the Great and Little Thousand Leaf Hands, Zuo Mo did not have a hard
time understanding low level yao arts, but deconstructing them still required some effort.
What depressed him the most that the four hours was spent between these forty-six rocks. He had
originally assumed that he could see some exotic locations. Zuo Mo was very disappointed. To
leave each rock, it required deconstructing them.
Did this guy pull him here to destroy rocks?
What heart and soul becoming stronger
Zuo Mo was very suspicious this was an excuse this guy made up on the spot. He did not doubt
this guy would do such a thing.
The power of low level yao arts were very limited, and far less than the Great and Little
Thousand Leaf Hands. After learning the forty-six yao arts, there was no actual benefit to his
combat abilities.
It was just four hours, Zuo Mo could only comfort himself so.
Out of the corner of his eyes, he saw a shadow flying towards him. His mind became alert, was
he going to encounter a yao?
Just as he was filled with admiration, his surroundings rippled like waves and became blurry.
Damn it!
His vision blurred and Zuo Mo returned to reality. His expression was very ugly. He didnt leave
early or late, but returned at the most interesting moment. This made his four hour tour of Ten
Finger Prison turn into a trip to view rocks.

Just after Pu Yao and Zuo Mo disappeared, a figure flashed past the rock the two of them had
been on and couldnt help but make a slight sound of surprise.
An expression of shock flashed across her face.
When her gaze landed on the other pieces of rock, the surprise on her face increased. She seemed
to have seen something that was impossible.

Zuo Mo shook his head. His head still felt dizzy. Everything in front of him seemed slightly
unreal.
Daren, are you alright? Shu Long asked in concern. He was slightly worried. Darens attention
had been unfocused in the past four hours.

Oh, nothing. Zuo Mo suppressed the depression in his heart and raised his head to look in the
direction of Hundred Flower Valley. Has Xie Shan done anything?
Nothing. Shu Long shook his head.
Just at this time, the black clouds above Hundred Flower Valley started to move forcefully, the
five colored aurora moving in layers, and the outline of the multi-colored ling beast became even
clearer.
Zuo Mo became alert. He felt the rate that Xie Shan was absorbing ling power suddenly
increased.
It had come!
A rainbow light suddenly lit up in the black clouds like hundreds of rainbow needles piercing the
eyes of the onlookers. Even Zuo Mo unconsciously closed his eyes.
The rainbow light was visible for hundreds of li.
A long howl passed from inside Hundred Flower Valley and rang into the surroundings!
When everyone opened their eyes, the black clouds in the sky had completely disappeared. There
were no clouds for ten thousand li, and the sky was clear blue.
A figure shot from Hundred Flower Valley into the sky. It was Xie Shan. He looked around and
then suddenly disappeared in the air.
Sighs rose among the crowd. Only jindan could possess such fast speed!
Xie Shans figure seemed to flash and then appear in front of Zuo Mo out of thin air. At this time,
he was like an unsheathed sword with all his edges revealed. The presence of his body
continuously smashed against the surroundings. Shu Longs figure waved, and his expression
changed to a wary one.
Zuo Mo was like a spear and remained motionless. He was not affected by Xie Shans presence
at all.
Daren, Xie Shan is a jindan! Xie Shan respectfully bowed, his presence instantly decreasing.
Zuo Mo was stunned, and then a joyous expression came onto his face. He had originally
assumed that Xie Shan would leave after becoming a jindan. In his view, that was normal and
logical.
Xie Shan hopes to follow Daren like before, Xie Shan said with a serious expression.
En, good. Zuo Mo pressed his lips together tightly. He didnt know what to say but his heart
felt warm and moved.
Ma Fan, who had been nervous, seemed to be relieved of his burden and gave a blinding smile.
No matter if it was Vermillion Bird Camp, Guard Camp, or the forging division, everyones
mouths uncontrollably opened, their grins reaching their ears.
In an instantly, the cheers thundered!
Translator Ramblings: No, Xie Shan is not going to stay behind, and he wants to go with Zuo
Mo. Zuo Mo has gone on a nice field trip as Pu Yao shows how much he has recovered by eating
that jindan.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Twenty Five This Is
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom and warlord212.
Chapter Three Hundred and Twenty Five This Is
In the night, the five slave transporting boats silently advanced.

A Gui, we are going to Cloud Sea Jie, Zuo Mo lightly said to A Gui beside him. The puppetlike A Gui was lifeless, appearing so fragile she invoked pity. Whenever he thought of A Gui
blocking the attack above Golden Crow City sacrificing herself in the process, Zuo Mo felt his
heart tremble.
Lil Black was still sleeping as usual, Lil Pagoda and Lil Fire were playing without worry but
Silly Bird was acting out of the ordinary. She stood silently beside A Gui, her grey feathers
lightly trembling.
Gongsun Cha, Shu Long, Xie Shan, and the others were gathered on this slave transporting boat.
After Xie Shan entered jindan, he left the Sky Peak Platoon to act as Zuo Mos personal guard.
Ma Fan became the leader of Sky Peak Platoon, Nian Lu and Lei Peng his vice-commanders. In
this period of time, the effect of continuous battle was very evident on everyones development.
There were eighteen more xiuzhe of Vermillion Bird Camp that had comprehended sword
essence. The number of people in Sky Peak Platoon had increased rather than decreased even
with Xie Shans departure, and reached a total of thirty people.
The forging division hadnt been idle in this time. Due to the fact everyone used Golden Crow
Fire, adopting the name Golden Crow Camp had received unanimous consent. Golden Crow
Camp underwent further reorganization. The forging division was its most important division.
Other than that, the dan-making division and other divisions were made into separate branches of
Golden Crow Camp. Of the five slave transporting boats, two were especially set aside for
Golden Crow Camp to construct specialized dan-making and forging rooms.
As their experience accumulated, everyone gradually created an effective system.
Xie Shan who had been resting suddenly opened his eyes. He glanced in the distance and a light
flashed through his eyes. This group of people are really not letting go.
From the moment they had departed Hundred Flower Valley, there had been people following
them along the entire way.
Ignore them, Zuo Mo said. Their travel was concealed as much as possible but it could not be
completely concealed from those with the intention to follow. These scouts were very alert, did
not come close and only trailed from far away.
After flying for another four hours, the ground underneath them turned from hills to plains. An
enormous formation entered everyones field of view.
Whoa, so big!
Powerful! Such a big transporting formation!
The people on the slave transporting boats became excited, stretching their necks out to look at
the enormous formation at the ground.
The Sky Water Transporting Formation was over ten li in radius and was one of the largest
transporting formations in Sky Water Jie. In the darkness, the enormous transporting formation
flashed with light that made it even more enchanting.
Zuo Mos face was filled with shock. Of all the kinds of formations, transporting formations
were famed for their difficulty. It was hard to imagine just how difficult it had been to make such
an enormous formation. The transporting formations of Sky Moon Jie compared to this one were
like toys that children played with. Sky Water Jie was much stronger and prosperous than Sky
Moon Jie. This transporting formation was a evidence of the difference in wealth.
Lets go down.
The five slave transporting boats slowly landed. Vermillion Bird Camp spread out and went on
their guard to stop others from coming close.

Zuo Mo impatiently flew off the boat and into the air above the transporting formation. Gazing at
the complex seal scripts of the transporting formation, he was full of admiration. Zuo Mo quickly
found that this formation had many places that he could not understand. However, he was not
rushed, but took out a blank jade scroll to record down all the seal scripts of the transportation
formation so he could study it in the future.
Such a waste. You xiuzhes stuff is just grand yet impractical. Pu Yaos voice sounded in Zuo
Mos mind. He said temptingly, Little Mo Mo, come learn yao arts, yao arts are very useful.
Zuo Mo ignored it and asked, Pu, can you understand this formation?
Pu Yao deflated. Dont understand Then he argued, Im a yao, why do I need to
understand your formations?
If you dont understand, then shut up, Zuo Mo shot back. A hint of suspicion flashed across his
mind. Why was Pu Yao recently tempting him to learn yao arts? He couldnt help but think at the
same time that the golden core had been a very substantial meal. Pu Yao was much more lively
than in the past.
If he ate a few more golden cores, would Pu Yao become a chatterbox?
Zuo Mo shook and decided to guard against this. A person couldnt be overfed.
After flying multiple circles in the air around the transportation formation, Zuo Mo landed. Even
though there were many details on this transportation formation that he did not understand, but
he did not find it difficult to use it.
The five slave transporting ships flew inside the formation, and Zuo Mo started to bury jingshi
inside the formation. One hundred and twenty four pieces of fourth-grade jingshi. Zuo Mos
heart bled at the expenditure.
After all one hundred and twenty four pieces of fourth-grade jingshi were embed into the
formation, the jingshi lit up one after the other like stars being ignited in the sky. Ten breaths
later, all one hundred and twenty four pieces of fourth-grade jingshi were lit up. If one looked
down from the sky, they looked like stars. The light started from each pieces of jingshi and
flowed following the seal scripts.
Looking at the complex seal scripts slowly light up, everyone felt curiosity and novelty.
The seal scripts of the entire formation were activated. It was extremely crowded, grand and
dazzled the eyes. The light suddenly left the seal scripts and slowly floated towards the sky.
Everyone, pay attention, were leaving!
The excited Zuo Mo couldnt help but yell.
Before his words landed, everyone inside the formation disappeared. The blinding and grand
light turned to countless pieces of light and scattered in the wind like rain.
A moment later, two people appeared beside the formation. One of them was Yan Yang.
Yan Yangs face was unusually excited. When he had learned of Zuo Mos trip, he knew that they
were going towards the Sky Water Transportation Formation. They had hurried to get here first,
and silently altered the formation to trick Zuo Mo. Yan Yang suppressed the ecstasy in his heart,
and respectfully bowed to the person beside him. Shishu, many thanks for doing this!
Its nothing. I liked Gao Xiu too. This is avenging him, This person said lightly. However,
you shall not move against Little Mountain City. If Sky Water Jie is in chaos, no one will benefit.
The other sects will not agree.
This disciple understands, Yan Yang couldnt help but ask, Where will they be transported
to?
Three thousand jie are like stars in the sky. Only the heavens know where they will go.

This person waved his sleeve, and dots of light flew out. The dots entered the formation and
some seal scripts silently changed.
This has ended. Lets go.
Yes.

Zuo Mo looked in front of him at the sky that seemed to be dyed with blood and suddenly had a
bad feeling. Gongsun Cha, Xie Shan, and the others also had serious expressions. Anyone could
see that something wasnt right.
This isnt Buddhist Flower Jie! Zuo Mo said darkly.
Sky Water Jie didnt have a transportation formation connected directly to Cloud Sea Jie, so they
had to first arrive in Buddhist Flower Jie. There was a clear description of Buddhist Flower Jie in
Zuo Mos jie map. Buddhist Flower Jies seasons were all like spring, and the climate was mild.
But what was in front of them
The air was filled with a stern killing energy. The sky was tinted with a strange red. Nothing
grew on the soil beneath their feet.
Zuo Mo reacted the quickest. He looked below him and his expression changed. Not good,
someone did something to the transportation formation! The transportation formation under
their feet was damaged and incomplete. It clearly had been many years since someone had used
it. Many places had been worn away.
Everyones expression changed. Travelling among the jie, this was the most frightening scenario.
If they suddenly landed in a strange and barren jie, there usually would be one ending, being
trapped there until they died.
Pu, do you know where this is? Zuo Mo held one last thread of hope in his heart.
No. You have to be careful. This place isnt right! Pu Yaos voice held a rare gravity. Zuo
Mos heart continuously sank.
Damn it! Without any thought, Zuo Mo could generally guess who had done this. However, there
was no meaning in determining who had been working from the shadows at the moment.
Zuo Mo couldnt help but be nervous as it was the first time he had landed in a situation like this.
In the past, no matter if it was Little Mountain Jie or Sky Water Jie, he had never been so
nervous no matter how terrible the situation was. He didnt know what was up ahead. Were there
people? Were there dangers?
He didnt know anything.
Ignorance was the terror in the deepest part of his heart.
Nervousness and insecurity spread among the people. Zuo Mo forced himself to calm down. He
knew he couldnt panic right now. He inhaled deeply and tried to make his voice calmer. We
will go forward. Everyone, prepare to battle at any time.
Zuo Mos efforts were not wasted. Everyone saw that he kept his composure, and it was as
though they found their spines. Their restlessness instantly disappeared greatly. At this time, Shu
Long and Gongsun Cha also reacted, and quickly calmed down.
The troop methodically started to move. The five slave transporting boats rose into the sky again
and started to fly forward.
As they kept on flying, everyones expressions became even heavier.

Desolate, a desolation that made everyone feel hopeless. After flying more than a hundred li,
they hadnt seen anything that was living. The ground was burnt black but held a hint of blood
red. There was nothing growing. All the mountain peaks were bare and free of any life.
Zuo Mos mind suddenly moved. He channelled his ling power, and his expression changed
again. He turned and said to Gongsun Cha, Get them to save their ling power, the ling energy
here is too thin.
Hearing this, Gongsun Chas expression shifted slightly. He knew what this meant. The
Vermillion Bird Camp xiuzhe that had spread out quickly came back to the slave transporting
boats.
Now that the situation was so terrible, Zuo Mo actually completely calmed down. He said to Shu
Long, You try. See what effects this place has on you guys.
Shu Long hurried to activate his mo skill. He quickly had a joyful expression. Daren, this place
is very suitable for us to use mo skills, it almost almost He didnt know how to
explain it.
The black fiendish energy here is very heavy, Pu Yao opened again, and it has benefits for
Shu Long and the others.
Black fiendish energy? Zuo Mo s mind moved.
En, a type of special fiendish energy. They mostly appear on battlefields. This place is probably
an old battle field. However Pu Yao suddenly stopped.
However what? Zuo Mo asked impatiently.
Such strong black fiendish energy means two things. One is that this place should have been a
battlefield in the past, a battlefield that is very vast, and was the site of colossal battles. The other
is time. It will take a long time to create such thick black fiendish energy.
How long?
Over ten thousand years!
Hiss, Zuo Mo uncontrollably inhaled.
Ten thousand years
An ancient battlefield from ten thousand years ago Zuo Mo murmured to himself. The
desolate scene in front of him became even more vast and desolate! Xie Shan and Shu Long
beside him changed expression upon hearing this. Xie Shan even gave an expression of disbelief.
But Pu Yao stopped in his words.
But what? Zuo Mo suddenly shook and blurted.
If this really is a battlefield, then a world-shaking and great battle was fought here. Such
significant battles can be counted on the fingers. It is impossible that I do not know it! Pu Yao
said gravely, But this place doesnt match the descriptions of any battlefield that I know of.
Zuo Mos face was ashen white upon hearing this. Coldness crept up his heart, and his limbs.
Translator Ramblings: Zuo Mo falls prey to his ignorance and a whole new unexplored map is in
front of him now. This is the end of the transitory arc in Sky Water Jie. You can also consider
this little arc the conclusion to the major one before this and see it as a showcase for what Zuo
Mo and the others have accomplished. But hes had too much of a smooth sailing after killing
Clear Sky Old Forefather and a (major) setback is a good thing to cut Zuo Mo down to size. He
fell prey to his ignorance about formations and his lack of understanding of his enemies.
Also, Lil Cliffy is back!

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Twenty Six Ten Thousand
Year Old Ancient Battlefield
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Three Hundred and Twenty Six Ten Thousand Year Old Ancient Battlefield
Can we go back the way we came? Gongsun Cha asked Zuo Mo in a small voice.
The ashen-pale Zuo Mo shook his head, and said in a low voice, We got tricked. The other
changed the imprint on the transportation formation. This isnt one of the preset transportation
formations, but a random transportation formation. You also saw the transportation formation
under our feet. It is broken.
Gongsun Cha was silent.
Zuo Mo raised his awareness. Make sure everyone is careful. We managed to get out of Little
Mountain Jie. We can definitely find a way out of this place.
Hearing this, Gongsun Chas expression became better.
Xie Shans expression was stern. He was now a jindan and he was naturally different in all areas
than everyone else. He silently savoured the Ten Thousand Year old Battlefield Zuo Mo had
just said, and felt that it was possible as he felt the bone-piercing presence in the surroundings.
However, since Boss recognized it, he felt slightly reassured.
Boss origins were still so deep and immeasurable.
After flying for a long time forward, the front lines suddenly shifted. On high alert, Zuo Mo
unhesitatingly went forward.
When he flew to the front, he was dumbstruck where he stood.
It was an enormous and shocking wasteland. Countless mountain peaks that had collapsed, soil
that was burnt black everywhere, and there were large craters more than ten li in radius
everywhere. The scarred and charred land was shocking to see, this was a battlefield. Spread
among those craters were bones that could not be counted. These bones were already weathered.
When a harsh wind blew, the bones crumbled to powder. This scene that had only ever appeared
in the legends and tall tales was endless. A vast and ancient presence blew in their faces.
Everyone was so shocked they could not speak, including Pu Yao.
Ancient battlefield ancient battlefield Xie Shan soullessly murmured to himself.
The scene in front of him had given him an unparalleled blow. The marks left behind on the
battlefield made him felt the terrifying power that could have destroyed the world at that time.
He felt he was so small, like a speck of dust.
Zuo Mo was the first to recover. When he saw Xie Shans expression, he knew it was bad. Xie
Shan had just entered jindan and his cultivation was not stable. The sudden stimulation was too
strong, and his mind was still extremely vulnerable to damage. At this time, he couldnt attend to
anything else, shouting, Remain alert!
In these words, he used the Clear Sound Incantation.
Xie Shan shook and instantly regained his focus. He thought it had been very dangerous.
Shu Long! Zuo Mo shouted loudly.
Shu Long felt embarrassed by his performance just now. His face blotching red, he bowed
respectfully. Daren!

Were going down! Zuo Mos eyes narrowed, and a cold light flashed past.
Daren! Shu Long hurriedly urged, The situation right now isnt clear, going down so rashly

You dont dare? Zuo Mo interrupted him. His eyes were cold as knives.
Shu Long felt a burst of hot blood rushing to his head. His black armor rattled as he said
unhesitatingly, Shu Long obeys!
He jumped up as he finished speaking. Mid air, Shu Longs eyes glared angrily, the tendons tense
and bulging without any of the caution and steadiness he usually held. His thunder-like bellow
rang in the air, Guard Camp, to the ground!
The five slave transporting boats were close together to start with. Shu Long and Zuo Mos
exchange had not been concealed. All of Guard Camp heard it clearly. Guard Camp, who had
sworn to follow Zuo Mo, was being doubted on their bravery by Zuo Mo. The entire camp was
blood rushed as their eyes turned red.
Yes! Guard Camp shouted together as they jumped down.
In the air, black shadows jumped down like large birds.
The simultaneous shout of Guard Camp was like a gust of wind that swept the darkness off
everyones hearts. Morale rose greatly. Everyone of Vermillion Bird Camp that was staying on
the slave transporting boats had shamed expressions. They had also clearly heard Zuo Mos
question. They wanted to be able to charge at the very front at this moment.
Gongsun Cha felt the same inside. When he had arrived here, he had put himself in a box. He
really was lacking compared to Shixiong. Shixiong really was a natural leader. With just a few
words, he had restored morale.
Xie Shan felt even more shameful. He was a jindan, but his resolve was not as strong as Boss!
We are going down, Zuo Mo ordered with a cold face.
The five slave transporting boats quickly descended until they were not ten zhang from the
ground.
Shidi, you stay up here to command, Zuo Mo said to Gongsun Cha before he turned his face.
Silly Bird, protect A Gui! When he finished, he stepped off the slave transporting boat. Silly
Bird rolled her eyes, but obediently stood guard next to A Gui.
Zuo Mo stepped onto the ground.
The ground was as hard as steel with traces of red within the black. Zuo Mo did not examine it
closely, but shouted with a cold expression, Advance!
So what if it was a ten thousand year old ancient battlefield?
The troop rolled forward, Shu Longs body shrouded in black energy and brimming with killing
intent as he charged at the very front. At this time, people no longer felt any terror. Morale was
high. They wanted to see if any monster would pop up from somewhere so they could have a
good fight.
Zuo Mos face was cold as the troop advanced. He secretly paid attention to the surrounding
environment.
Ten li long ditches were everywhere. Zuo Mo was suspicious that those were from sword
energies. This place was filled with black fiendish energy. In a short while, the black energy on
Shu Long and the others bodies had become a few fractions denser. Zuo Mo had decided to
walk on the ground and not fly in the air after great thought. Due to the existence of the black
fiendish energy, Guard Camp had become the primary fighting force. Guard Camp was not
skilled in aerial combat so it was better to advance on the ground. Also, if they encountered
something dangerous, Zuo Mo didnt feel the air would be safer than the ground.

Zuo Mo glanced at the Golden Armor Guards beside him and suddenly found that the Golden
Armor Guards were also absorbing black fiendish energy.
At this moment, all of his attention was put in front of him and could not be spared for other
matters. What he saw most frequently were bones. When these bones were touched, they would
crumble and become dust. There would usually be some damaged items beside the skeletons, but
after ten thousand years, they were just like the bones, turning to dust upon a touch.
There was no life here, no living beings. On the way, there were only skeletons and scorched
earth.
They had travelled for a full twenty hours. Zuo Mo raised his head to look at the blood colored
sky. It hadnt shown any change compared to before. Was there no day or night here? Based on
their speed, they had already advanced more than one thousand li, but there was no change in the
scenery they passed.
Zuo Mo suddenly raised his head. He noticed the black fiendish energy was much denser here
than the location from twenty hours ago.
Careful, we have been walking towards the center of the battlefield, Pu Yao warned.
Everything here was beyond his knowledge. His tone was extremely grave.
So that was why
Zuo Mo suddenly spoke, Everyone, rest for a while.
Hearing this, the fast travelling troops stopped. Everyone sat down to rest. Shu Long and the
others were wrapped in black energy. They did not feel any exhaustion and their energy was
abnormally good.
Will the black fiendish energy pose any danger to them? Zuo Mo asked Pu Yao.
Pu Yao said, No. To them and the Golden Armor Guards, black fiendish energy is the best
substance. I have never heard of a place with such thick black fiendish energy. This is the best
place for Shu Long and the others to cultivate.
Thats good. Zuo Mos heart relaxed. He suddenly thought of a question. Pu, do you think
there will be anything living here?
The possibility is very low, Pu Yaos tone was very cautious, the scale of this battlefield
eclipses any conflict that I know of. I really cannot think of any conflict that has been on such a
scale. The black fiendish energy created after such a great battle is unparalleled in its brutality.
Normal beings definitely cannot survive.
What about xiuzhe like us? Or yaomo? Zuo Mo said.
That is possible.
Thats great! Zuo Mo seemed to see a thread of hope.
Great? I dont think so! Pu Yao said with a cold smile, Living long term in a place with such
thick black fiendish energy, ones personality would naturally be affected. Becoming brutal and
fast to kill. Other than that, you need to be careful of fiendish soul beasts.
Fiendish soul beasts? What is that?
At dense areas of fiendish energy, over time, they will create low level souls. Oh, their
formation process is like that of Lil Fire, but they are born from fiendish energy, and are innately
brutal and fond of killing. Ive never seen fiendish soul beasts nurtured by black fiendish energy.
Ha, this is interesting!
After resting for a while, the troop departed again.
Twenty hours later, the surrounding environment still had not changed. If it wasnt that the
density of black fiendish energy in the air had clearly increased, Zuo Mo would have been
suspicious that they had entered a high level illusory formation.

After this rest, Zuo Mo did not let the troop immediately depart but set up camp.
We need to rest? Gongsun Cha ran over to ask Zuo Mo.
En, there is possibly danger ahead. Im planning to get Shu Long and the others to cultivate
before going forward, Zuo Mo said.
So thats how it is! Gongsun Cha made a deep sound. He said with slight worry, The other
peoples situations are not good. The ling power here is very thin. They can only use jingshi to
replenish their ling power.
Zuo Mo didnt have better methods. He could only say, Just use jingshi for now.
He rejoiced now that they had taken enough jingshi along and didnt have to worry in the short
term. This was a habit they had formed from being in Little Mountain Jie. They had taken large
amounts of jingshi from Little Mountain Jie and hadnt spent much in Sky Water Jie. They had
taken all of these jingshi with them.
Pu, do you have any methods? Zuo Mo was slightly troubled.
I do know some methods of cultivating with black fiendish energy, but they have to start over
their cultivation from the beginning. Pu Yao spread his hands.
We can only take a step and look a step, Zuo Mo sighed. He started to search for jade scrolls
on formations in his ring. He needed to take a good look at transportation formations. He
probably had to rely on himself to make a transportation formation to leave this ghastly place.
No formation could remain complete after ten thousand years, it was unlikely that they would
find one. What he set up would be much more dependable.
He had many jade scrolls in his ring, and jade scrolls on formations were something he was
usually very enthusiastic about collecting. He took out all the jade scrolls on formations that he
possessed. Piled up in front of him was a little mountain.
If he could chew through this little mountain, they would be able to leave this ghastly place!
Zuo Mo continued to brainwash himself. Just as he was preparing to start, he saw Cheng Shidi
who had been buried in the nursery on the slave transporting boats and never showed his face
suddenly jump out of the slave transporting boats. He stumbled as he ran over, his expression
panicked.
Shixiong! Shixiong! Come quickly to see!
Translator Ramblings: Zuo Mo and the others are very lucky they have the black processing
meditation mats. For scale comparisons, a li is 500 meters so there are some pretty big ditches.
Zuo Mo would not let Pu Yao take Xie Shan easily. He has supported Xie Shans cultivation for a
long time through jingshi and to make a profit, Pu Yao needs to offer him the value of a jindan
and also what Zuo Mo has invested in Xie Shan. There also is the possibility what Pu Yao trades
Zuo Mo has hidden shortcomings so Xie Shan with his proven loyalty is a safer bet. Xie Shan
could also defeat other jindan or act like bait.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Twenty Seven Twin Butterfly
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiofDoom, and warlord212.
Chapter Three Hundred and Twenty Seven Twin Butterfly
Zuo Mo raced with Chun Yu Cheng towards his nursery room.

This was the first time he had went to one of Cheng Shidis rooms. He couldnt help but feel a
twinge of shame. There were too many matters he had to attend to every day and he had basically
had not paid any attention to any of Cheng Shidis matters.
Cheng Shidis husbandry room had been divided into several areas. After he took a close look, he
was very shocked. Each section was its own standalone beast pool. When had Cheng Shidi been
able to construct the beast pool by himself?
Shidi, you dont know. When it came out, it was different compared to the rest of its species.
Chun Yu Chengs expression wasnt good. His soul seemed shaken, but he felt reassured with
Zuo Mo at his side.
Shidi, you made these beast pools yourself? Zuo Mo interrupted him.
This, yes, Chun Yu Cheng clearly did not pay attention to Zuo Mos question. The
conversations focus quickly returned to the matter at hand, It is a ninth-generation ling
butterfly. There were two hundred that were of the same brood as it
Shidi, this part of the formation isnt quite the same as what I did before, Zuo Mo said as he
pointed at a formation script on the beast pool.
Did I change it incorrectly? Chun Yu Cheng embarrassedly rubbed his head. I felt that place
wasnt too complete, so I tried to change it. I found the effects are pretty good so I kept using it.
Zuo Mos shock increased as he hurriedly waved his hand. No, no, you didnt do anything
wrong. If Shidi feels it is effective, then use it.
So without him noticing it, Chun Shidis husbandry skills had reached such a high level!
Oh, thats great! Chun Yu Cheng released a breath, but his expression tensed again. He
refocused on his original topic. Shixiong, when this one came out, it swallowed a ling butterfly.
I was slightly surprised. Ive raised ling butterflies for this long, but have never seen one as
savage as this.
Chun Yu Cheng finally was able to pull Zuo Mos attention to the topic. He couldnt help but
follow, Then?
Then, Chun Yu Cheng swallowed, it devoured more than one hundred ling butterflies. I
thought that it would eat all the ling butterflies if it kept on going so I put it together with some
poisonous worms. I started to raise these poisonous worms in Little Mountain Jie. They are very
vicious, and have great potential. I speculated that if I raised them for a bit longer, after two or
three generations, it may produce a fifth-grade ling beast.
Hearing this, Zuo Mos curiosity was completely stirred up. And then?
When I went to look a few days later, Chun Yu Chengs expression was slightly terrified,
those poisonous worms had all died. Their bodies were deathly grey without a hint of life.
Shixiong, you know, Im pretty familiar with ling butterflies, but Ive never heard of such an evil
ling butterfly.
Looking at the trace of terror remaining in Cheng Shidis face, Zuo Mo was even more curious.
It was a pity to throw the poisonous worms out. I had originally planned on using the husks but
didnt expect the exoskeleton, claws, and teeth of the worms had no ling energy left. Cheng
Shidis voice became filled with anticipation. At that time, I knew this ling butterfly wasnt a
simple one.
Zuo Mo knew that if the matter was just like this, Cheng Shidi would not be so nervous. He
asked, Did something unexpected happen?
Worry floated onto Chun Yu Chengs face. Starting from yesterday, it suddenly became
extremely restless, and kept on charging towards the outside of the beast pool. This ling butterfly

is really powerful. I noticed that the beast pool cant hold it for much longer, and I cant suppress
it any longer so I hurried to find Shixiong.
At this time, the two of them arrived at a beast pool.
Zuo Mo finally saw the ling butterfly that Cheng Shidi spoke about. At first glance, he was very
shocked. The wings of this ling butterfly were different colours, one black and one white, and
were without any blemishes. The most unique part were the two antennae. A ball of mist floated
at the end of each antenna, also black and white. It was possible to make out the figures of two
little people within the two balls of mist.
But what truly shocked Zuo Mo was the faint presence released by the ling butterfly. This
presence was extremely weak, but it was very clear, and made Zuo Mo think of that fifth-grade
Bloody Horned Serpent.
Was this a fifth-grade ling butterfly?
This ling butterfly is very unique. Chun Yu Cheng had a proud expression. I call it the twin
butterfly.
The twin butterfly noticed Zuo Mo, and instantly had a wary expression. Zuo Mos mind moved,
and he released a thread of the presence of the Great Day mo physique. The twin butterfly was
shocked and shrank back to the corner of the beast pool.
Such an intelligent ling butterfly!
Zuo Mo praised inside. He was even more sure that this twin butterfly wasnt far from fifthgrade.
Thinking about this, he knocked on the beast service card at his waist. The Black Butterfly flew
out. After the Rainbow Mark Butterfly leveled into the Black Butterfly, it was fourth-grade, and
one step away from fifth-grade. When the Black Butterfly flew out, it noticed the twin butterfly.
It seemed to be slightly wary of the twin butterfly.
At this time, the mist at the two ends of the twin butterflys antennae flew out like a bolt of
intertwined black and white lightning that accurately struck the Black Butterfly!
The Black Butterfly froze on its spot as its vitality quickly flowed away. In a flick of the finger,
the black and white mist flew back into the beast pool.
Hiss, Zuo Mo and Chun Yu Cheng inhaled sharply.
The change was so sudden. Zuo Mo hadnt thought the black and white mist of the twin butterfly
could ignore the jinzhi of the beast pool.
As the black and white mist entered the body of the twin butterfly, Zuo Mo sensitively detected
the presence of the twin butterfly had greatly increased! He saw the colors of the black and white
wings of the twin butterfly were even purer, and the greatest changes were in the two little
people in the balls of mist. The features of the two little people in the mist were more distinct
than before. They were the size of a thumb as they floated in the mist.
Such an eerie and weird ling butterfly!
Just as Zuo Mo was astonished, Pu Yao suddenly spoke, Hm, this Yin-yang Twin Butterfly is a
little interesting.
Yin-yang Twin Butterfly? Zuo Mos reaction was extremely quick.
This shidi of yours really does have some skill to be able to raise such a rare ling butterfly. Pu
Yao first praised Chun Yu Cheng before he said, Ive never seen a Yin-yang Twin Butterfly
before so my knowledge is limited. This Twin Butterfly of your Shidis is slightly different than
the Yin-yang Twin Butterfly I know of. Take a look with your Ling Eye.
Zuo Mo hurriedly opened his Ling Eye and saw threads of black energy continuously fly into the
beast pool and enter the body of the Twin Butterfly.

Black fiendish energy? Zuo Mo inhaled sharply again. It is absorbing black fiendish energy!
Your shidi has raised something good. Pu Yao reminded, Quick, get it into the beast service
card. Remember to first use the Great Day mo physique.
Receiving Pu Yaos guidance, Zuo Mo hurriedly explained the situation to Cheng Shidi. Cheng
Shidi was both surprised and joyful. He hurriedly said, Shixiong, quick, tame it! Chun Yu
Chengs cultivation was too low. There wasnt a problem when he was raising ling beasts, but he
did not have the power to tame a powerful ling beast like the twin butterfly.
Even Zuo Mo needed to use the power of the Great Day mo physique to tame the twin butterfly.
Zuo Mo did not hesitate and took out an empty beast service card. Activating the Great Day mo
physique, the Light Void Wings on his back appeared. The husbandry room was filled with a
tangible pressure. All the ling beasts in the beast pools curled up in balls as they shook. The two
little people on the tips of the twin butterflys antennae trembled. It seemed to have realized
something, but the powerful pressure of the Great Day mo physique made it lower its wings.
Seeing the situation, Zuo Mo unhesitatingly cut his finger to squeeze out a drop of blood to
throw at the twin butterfly as he cast a spell at the same time, calling out, In!
The black and white wings of the twin butterfly shook, and it did not dare to dodge. The drop of
blood and the spell quickly permeated it when it touched the wings like water sinking into sand.
In a moment, a bloody crescent mark appeared on each of the black and white wings. The twin
butterfly turned into a light of intermingling black and white and entered the beast card.
Two little people, one black and one white, floated onto the service of the beast service card back
to back. Five stars lit up the back of the beast service card. Chun Yu Cheng and Zuo Mo both had
joyous expressions. This twin butterfly was a fifth-grade ling butterfly!
I raised a fifth-grade ling butterfly! I raised a fifth-grade ling butterfly! The ecstatic Chun Yu
Cheng murmured, unable to say anything else.
It had been his dream to raise a fifth-grade ling butterfly. He had talent in husbandry, but he was
from a small sect. Compared to the disciples from the large sects, the resources he could receive
were limited. Raising a fifth-grade ling butterfly was his limit. He had always worked towards
this target.
But today, the goal that he thought he would need to struggle towards for a lifetime had already
been achieved.
He felt he was dreaming and it was unrealistic. Among the joyfulness was a thread of confusion.
The greatest goal of his life had been completed so easily.
Looking at the excited yet bewildered Cheng Shidi, Zuo Mo smiled. He understood Cheng
Shidis mood very well. He shoved a jade scroll into Cheng Shidis hand and then left the
husbandry room.
Chun Yu Cheng was excited for a long time, after he finally calmed down and found a jade scroll
in his hand.
He reflexively inspected the contents and became dumbstruck as though he was struck by a bolt
of lightning.

Zuo Mo walked out of the slave transporting boat and found Bao Yi to tell him to not short
Cheng Shidi on any materials he requested. Bao Yi hurriedly agreed. Inside, he celebrated his
carefulness. He had always tried to satisfied all of Chun Yu Chengs requests. In his view, Chun

Yu Cheng did not ask about matters, but he was Boss Shidi. It seemed that he had acted
correctly.
The jade scroll Zuo Mo had given Chun Yu Cheng included all of the content on the beast pools.
The modifications Chun Shidi had made to the beast pool caused him to realize his shidis
exceptional talent in husbandry. He decided to give everything about the beast pool to Cheng
Shidi to study. The present Cheng Shidi needed a completely new goal.
He summoned the twin butterfly and examined this unique ling butterfly. He had to admit that
only a maniac like Cheng Shidi could raise such a unique ling butterfly based on the disorderly
and fragmented jade scroll Zuo Mo had given him and his own knowledge.
However, he then creased his brow. If Cheng Shidi wanted to progress another step, he would
face a problem cultivation. Cheng Shidi would find it difficult to suppress any action of a fifthgrade ling beast. The twin butterfly had been a very lucky incident.
Another with the same problem was Gongsun Shidi. Zuo Mo had learned more about battle
generals, and knew that battle generals had a system of unique cultivation spells. The demands
on cultivation of beginner battle generals were not high, but as they progressed, the demands on
cultivation increased.
This was really a troublesome problem.
Zuo Mo frowned and sank into deep thought. He did not notice the actions of the twin butterfly.
Translator Ramblings: Chun Yu Cheng finally gets a chapter focusing on him. Ling butterflies
have really short generation times compared to everything else. Nine generations from Desolate
Wood Reef to now or in even less time. I feel that this might end up being more profitable than
being a ling plant farmer.
Today is also a pretty nice day except I have discovered listening to music to make me focus is
not working anymore.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Twenty Eight Upheaval of
Sword Cave
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom and warlord212.
Chapter Three Hundred and Twenty Eight Upheaval of Sword Cave
Inside the sword cave, Lin Qian finished reading the jade scroll and said with a sigh, Just passed
by, what a pity, what a pity.
Wei Sheng raised his head to look but did not say anything. His time in the sword cave could not
be called pleasant. It wasnt that it was dull to stay in the sword cave every day. He cultivated the
sword and had gone through hundreds of hardships. What was in front of him now didnt amount
to anything.
What made him feel dislike was the inability to mesh with this group of people. Truthfully, Lin
Qian thought highly of him, and was very courteous in tone and speech, and never lost his
manners. The xiuzhe under Lin Qians command did not try to find trouble with him, but the
distance in their backgrounds would lead to subtle and unconsciously slips.

Wei Sheng wasnt dumb. How could he not feel it? He didnt find it strange. He had started as a
sword servant. What kind of attitudes hadnt he been subjected to? He just disliked it. What he
disliked even more was that Lin Qian would always target Zuo Mo Shidi.
He usually wasnt a chatty person. After entering the sword cave, he became increasingly
reserved.
Lin Qian handed the jade scroll to Wei Sheng.
Wei Sheng was slightly puzzled as he took the jade scroll and started reading. After he finished
reading the jade scroll, Wei Shengs expression was normal, but enormous waves of emotion
started in his heart.
Taking the name of the Master of Golden Crow City, killing multiple jindan, tens of thousands of
xiuzhe gathering at his call
Was this Shidi? Wei Sheng didnt quite believe it. In the jade scroll, Shidis appearance had
changed greatly, but Wei Sheng had instantly recognized the attitude and movements. He also
recognized Gongsun Cha and Chun Yu Cheng. After Shidi had been sent to Desolate Wood Reef,
Wei Sheng had especially investigated the shidi of the sect that had gone with Zuo Mo Shidi and
he had a general impression of these two people.
Shidi really was Shidi!
Wei Sheng was filled with an unspeakable joy. He felt peerlessly happy knowing that Shidi was
alive and living well. Excitement unconsciously showed in his eyes. Shidi was so powerful now.
As the shixiong, how could he be left behind?
Lin Qian had been staring at Wei Sheng and suddenly spoke, Do you know what secret
technique is this golden pair of wings on Zuo Mos back? Does it originate from the sect?
Wei Sheng opened his eyes, and said solemnly, Zuo Shidi usually has great luck. It wouldnt be
strange for him to have fortuitous encounters.
Lin Qian looked with pity at Wei Sheng and said faintly, Really? This one is familiar with the
records and feel the pair of golden wings on Zuo Mos back matches the supposed
transformations of a mo physique.
Wei Sheng was not moved. Oh, really? But based on what Wei knows, the dhyanas abhinna
have similar ones. Xin Shishu has passed on [Vajra Profound Sutra] to Shidi. Shidi is
exceptionally talented, and was just a step away from forming an abhinna.
Lin Qian took back his gaze and said calmly, Brother Wei, why argue with me? I already have
people guarding at Buddhist Flower Jie. Sect Leader Pei is righteous and just, and has agreed to
this one to investigate this matter. The result will naturally be clear at that time.
Wei Shengs hands fisted together, his eyes angry. The xiuzhe around Lin Qian shifted and stared
with murderous eyes at Wei Sheng.
Brother Wei has no need to be nervous. If Zuo Mo really has achieved an abhinna, this one will
be happy. Even if Zuo Mo is being threatened by yaomo, this one will save his life. Lin Qian
raised his head, his eyes deep and serene. The battle between us xiuzhe and yaomo is like water
and fire, and cannot be avoided. Brother Wei is exceptionally talented. You should remain
neutral. Do not fail the hopes of your sect leader.
As he finished, he turned and ordered, Everyone prepare. We are returning tomorrow morning.
Wei Sheng shook upon hearing this. The snippets of conversation he heard when the xiuzhe had
chatted floating into his mind. The xiuzhe in the surroundings looked coldly at Wei Sheng and
scattered.
In the deepest part of the sword cave, Wei Sheng travelled here alone. His eyes scanned the
surroundings and was filled with reluctance. He knew that Lin Qian and his fellows were going

to completely abandon Sky Moon Jie. When the group of xiuzhe had been chatting, he heard that
the upper ranks were planning to completely seal the jie river from Sky Moon Jie to Bright Wave
Jie. Supposedly, almost all of the jindan experts of Bright Wave Jie were being gathered to set up
the formation.
They didnt plan to recapture Sky Moon Jie.
The atmosphere in the dark sword cave seemed to become more agreeable at this time. Thinking
about how he would be unable to return to Sky Moon Jie in the future, Wei Sheng heart was
dark. He silently walked to the deeper parts of the sword cave. He had killed his way through all
eighteen levels of the sword cave. Thinking about it now, it seemed like yesterday. The shixiong
and shidi of Wu Kong Mountain seemed to be right in front of him.
Thinking of the complex fighting inside the sect, his heart felt irritated. He hadnt increased his
cultivation one bit in this past year. He knew why that was. He had already planned it out. After
returning this time, and the matter of Zuo Shidi was cleared up, he would go out to travel. He
only wanted to cultivate the sword. He didnt want to manage the matters of the sect and he
couldnt manage them.
For some reason, he wasnt too worried about the matter of Shidi. Thinking of Zuo Mo, he
smiled. Shidis cunning could only be understood by those who felt it. None of the people that
had targeted Shidi before had ever gotten away.
Lin Qians origins were extraordinary, and had astounding power on his hands. Wei Sheng was
very clear of that. But if Lin Qian thought he would be able to pin down Shidi so easily, then he
was too nave. Thinking about it, mirth unconsciously came to the corner of Wei Shengs mouth.
As to Lin Qians talk about yaomo. Wei Sheng felt disdain. He was clear that yaomo and xiuzhe
were mortal enemies. He didnt have any good feelings about yaomo, but did not hold negative
feelings. The conflict of xiuzhe and yaomo at its core was the conflict over resources. Xiuzhe
cultivation required large amounts of jingshi and all kinds of talismans. Where would these
things come from?
There was a system for the production of materials, but it was far from being able to satisfy the
demands of those great sects. The discovery of new jie had never stopped. Each jies discovery
would be accompanied by rivers of blood.
What did the battle of yaomo and xiuzhe have to do with him?
Those big sects werent good entities. He missed the past Wu Kong Sword Sect.
Unknowingly, he walked to the deepest level. The yin fiends along the way had not recovered,
and didnt dare to come near Wei Sheng as they knew his power.
The deepest level was empty. In the past, there had been a very powerful yin fiend here. He had
killed it at the expense of heavy injuries. His gaze landed on the ground. There was a thick layer
of copper tile beneath his feet, and along the stone wall was a copper table. There was a jade box
on the copper table. Wei Shengs complete version of [Void Sword Scripture] had been taken
from this jade box.
Everything here had not changed compared to when he had left.
After tomorrow, everything here would be sealed forever.
Wei Sheng was very emotion. His hand caressed the copper table. A wave of coldness passed
back. He suddenly made a slight sound of surprise. There was another weak presence among this
wave of coldness! This presence was very weak. If it wasnt that he was much stronger than
when he had previously been in the sword cave, then he would not have detected this presence.
There was something strange!

His mind jumped. Closing his eyes and calming his mind, this weak presence slowly became
clear.
He opened his eyes and sent out his sword essence to swipe a few times on the copper table. The
surface of the table flashed with light and revealed a jade box.
Wei Sheng had a surprised and joyful expression as he hurriedly opened the jade box. Inside was
a damaged jade pendant and a jade scroll. Wei Sheng carefully picked up the jade scroll. As he
read, he became even more shocked.
Remaining in the jade scroll was a thread of thought that the sects ancestral master had left
before death. It told the history of this jade pendant. This pendant was a talisman the ancestral
master had serendipitously received when he was young, which had a unique presence that
lingered on it. The sects [Void Sword Scripture] had been comprehended by the ancestral master
from this presence. When he read this, Wei Shengs heart beat wildly.
A presence was enough for the ancestral master to comprehend a sixth-grade sword scripture.
This presence should have been so powerful he couldnt imagine it
The ancestral master spent his entire life studying this jade scroll, and finally gained something
before the end of his life. However, he had no power to personally uncover the mystery of the
pendant so he had carved what he knowledge had gained on the underside of the copper tile. But
considering that while the presence of the jade pendant was weak, but it was vastly
immeasurable and pure, he was afraid it would cause a calamity. The ancestral master decided to
hide it. If a disciple from the sect had the fate, he naturally would receive it. This was an
opportunity.
Putting down the jade scroll, Wei Sheng gaze moved to the damaged jade pendant. His heart
beat hard. A presence that was complex enough that the ancestral master took a lifetime to
comprehend, it definitely was exceptional.
He carefully picked up the jade pendant. The jade pendant was very non-descript. One corner
was damaged, and its style was very old. Holding it on his hand, he could feel the mysterious
presence even more clearly. Suppressing his strong curiosity, he did not dare to use his mind to
touch this weak presence. A presence that even the ancestral master had to study for a lifetime
wasnt something he could touch with his present cultivation.
He gravely hung the jade scroll on his neck and then his eyes landed on the copper tiles. He
started the core scripture of [Void Sword Scripture] and pressed his hand to a copper tile. This
copper tile instantly became light as air, and was easily taken up.
There was something!
A strange pattern was revealed on the ground. Wei Shengs mind jumped again, and he picked up
the tiles one after the other.
In a short while, all of the copper tiles on the ground were removed to reveal the ground below.
The ground was as smooth as a mirror. An enormous formation appeared below Wei Shengs
feet.
This was
Wei Shengs eyes flashed as he carefully examined the formation under his feet. However, the
complex seal scripts made him dizzy. He thought it would be wonderful if Zuo Shidi was here.
With Shidis skill in formations, he definitely would know what this formation did.
He did not notice the jade pendant hanging on his neck started to imperceptibly light up.
When the light covered the entire jade pendant, and Wei Sheng noticed it, the formation under
his feet lit up with a bright bloody light, so bright that Wei Sheng could not open his eyes.
The dazzling blood coloured light formed a pillar and shot upwards.

The rock over his head turned to dust in front of the pillar of light.

On the highest level of the sword cave, Lin Qians expression suddenly changed. His figure
suddenly leap to the side. A blinding bloody pillar of light shot out of the ground, and brushed
past him. Some of the xiuzhe that couldnt react in time didnt even have the time to wail before
they were reduced to dust.
The pillar of light destructively penetrated the jinzhi of the sword cave with its lingering energy,
went through the thick rock and rose into the sky.
Lin Qians expression was extremely ugly. At this time, he could not do anything else but shout,
Leave! Leave immediately!
The erupting pillar of bloody light was like an enormous sword of blood that pierced the sky!
The yao army camped on Wu Kong Mountain looked in shock at the thick pillar of light.
Mu Xi reacted the quickest. Her expression tightened with shock, Go investigate what is going
on!
The deepest level of the sword cave was empty of everything.
Translator Ramblings: After the two shidi with Zuo Mo, its time to focus on the Shixiong of Zuo
Mo. Things are not what they appear to be and Wei Sheng has his own struggles. Hes burdened
by the expectations of the sect while Zuo Mo only needs to meet the requirement dont shame
us. Its a simplification but there is a system of debts and repayment. Wu Kong Sword Sect put
more resources in Wei Sheng and expects more out of him. You can think of it as Luo Li being
the blood child of the masters, Wei Sheng being the child they adopted and Zuo Mo the one that
was a freebie when they went shopping. Luo Li also has his own burdens and struggles.
I dont think I actually wrote that the black butterfly is dead. It just lost a lot of life force.

Chapter Three Hundred and Twenty Nine The Name of Tenth Grade
The twin butterfly slowly waved its wings. The black fiendish energy continuously flowed into
its body like a whale swallowing water. The black miniature figure hanging on the black
antennae slowly became clearer. The features became more and more defined out of the
blurriness, becoming more detailed.
The little miniature black person on the antenna was about three cun tall. Black clothing, and
black hair, his face was cold, his eyes holding killing intent as he stood aloofly.
When Zuo Mo raised his head from his thoughts, he coincidentally saw the formation of the little
black person. He was very surprised. This twin butterfly was really unusual!
The little black person glanced at Zuo Mo but had no intentions of paying attention to him. He
suddenly raised his arms, his hair standing on end, his eyes lighting up as he said in a crisp voice,
In!

A strong twister suddenly formed around the twin butterfly with wind, sand and rock.
Hiss! Zuo Mo inhaled sharply was amazement. The view within his Ling Eye, the black fiendish
energy was furiously flowing towards the arms that the little black person was raising.
The noise caused by the little black person was too loud. The entire camp was disturbed.
Everyone thought they were under attack and flew into the sky. The first to react was Xie Shan,
the second to charge over was Shu Long. He was extremely sensitive to black fiendish energy,
and instantly detected the change.
When they ran over with nervous expressions, and found the culprit was a strange black and
white ling butterfly in front of Zuo Mo, they were stunned.
Zuo Mo looked dazedly at the little black person. The black fiendish energy within five li of here
had all been moved. In the Ling Eye, the black fiendish energy within five li formed an enormous
black and red whirlpool. At the center of this whirlpool was this little black person not even three
cun tall.
The little black person had a stern expression as it focused intently on absorbing the black
fiendish energy.
The entire process took a whole two hours before the little black person contentedly stopped. At
this time, he clearly looked different. The black hair now was blood red like a burning flame. The
black pupils were deep as the night. Its handsome little face was wore a cold expression , the
killing intent between the brows even more evident.
The twin butterfly stopped absorbing the black fiendish energy, and the restless air gradually
calmed down.
Just as Zuo Mo was dumbstruck, the twin butterfly flew in front of him. The little black person
raised its little face filled with sternness and killing intent and gazed at Zuo Mo. When it spoke,
it was with a crisp and child-like voice, Please, Master, bestow a name!
Oh, it seemed alive
His face filled with disbelief, Zuo Mo seemed to have seen a ghost and put his face near. You
are alive?
The killing intent on the little black persons face froze. The corner of his eyes twitched. The
little face had also darkened, but was also helpless. Yes!
Hm, interesting Zuo Mo was excited. He suddenly raised his right hand, and poke a
finger in curiosity on the body of the little black person. Oh, its soft
Murderous intent rose on the face of the little black person. The little face was dark as it said, A
soldier can be killed, but cannot be humiliated!
It was a pity that the crisp childish tone neutralized the effect of all of the murderous intent.
However, Zuo Mo still took his finger back guiltily. He rubbed his chin in pretension. Naming
His eyes suddenly lit up. Inviting Wealth! How about this? Is it mighty enough
The features of the little black person convulsed. Suppressing his anger, he gritted his teeth. The
warrior can only be killed, but not humiliated
Ooh, how about Jingshi?
The warrior can only be killed, but not humiliated .. The crisp child-like tone showed signs
of collapsing.
You dont like Jingshi either? This habit isnt good. It seems we need to teach your taste. The
common saying is good, jingshi can even move ghosts ooh, All Wealth Belongs To Me,
how about this
The warrior can only be killed, but not humiliated The little black person weakly
objected.

The First Treasure in the World?


The warrior can only be killed, but not humiliated
Xie Shan and Shu Long looked with sympathy at the little black person that was tortured to the
point of death by Zuo Mo. They exchanged a look and rapidly left the scene.
Zuo Mo looked contentedly at the drooping figure of Tenth Grade. That was right, just now, the
little black person that was being endlessly tormented finally agreed to the strange name of Tenth
Grade.
Tenth Grade, dont feel that this name is common. Zuo Mo said with a solemn face. Tenth
Grade, it represents the highest grade. This twin butterfly is just fifth-grade. Tenth Grade, it
means the highest and the strongest! The strongest in the world. What, isnt this what you are
pursuing?
The depressed little black persons eyes suddenly lit up. He straightened, filled with battle intent,
and said gravely, Thank you Master for giving me a name!
Zuo Mos expression was very stern, but he was laughing in his heart. Oh, tenth-grade, how
much jingshi would that be
Tenth Grade was just three cun tall, but he was fifth-grade. Fifth-grade ling beasts had space
shields. Tenth Grades space shield was even more unique and had hints of the black fiendish
energy. Zuo Mo had never heard of black fiendish energy before, but after these days, he had
some understanding of the uniqueness of the black fiendish energy.
For Shu Long and the others, black fiendish energy was a great nutrient, but for xiuzhe, black
fiendish energy was akin to a powerful poison. Black fiendish energy was usually created from
brutal battlefields, it was yin and had the utmost vicious nature. If it met another entity, if it did
not completely destroy it, it would not rest.
A fifth-grade ling beast was as powerful as a jindan. Even more importantly, Tenth Grade was
very intelligent. When a ling beast or talisman had more intelligence, it mean that it had greater
room to grow.
The most powerful quality of Tenth Grade was that it could learn spells. This was something that
Zuo Mo had never heard of. He instantly taught [Hardship Guard] to Tenth Grade. [Hardship
Guard] could absorb black fiendish energy, and was suitable for Tenth Grade to practice. Zuo Mo
planned to get a stronger mo skill out of Pu Yao and the gravestone at a later time.
Even though Tenth Grades power was not strong now, but Zuo Mo was full of anticipation about
Tenth Grades future.
After a temporary rest, the troop departed again.
The vast ancient battlefield was covered in marks. Over time, even these terrifying marks had
become blurry.
After advancing for more than ten days, the scenery still hadnt changed. They hadnt discovered
anything. This ancient battlefield was so large that one couldnt imagine it.
The twin butterfly danced in flight, Tenth Grade sitting cross-legged on the black antenna as he
cultivated. His progressed made all of Guard Camp sweat. In just ten days, he had created black
armor. He could also take it on or off based on his will while Shu Long and the others black
armor could not be taken off.
Tenth Grade was a cultivation person, no, was a cultivation wild beast. He didnt like to stay in
the beast service card, and stayed on the antenna all day motionlessly cultivating. Lil Pagoda
and Lil Fire were full of curiosity about Tenth Grade and would occasionally come over to look
but Tenth Grade would just ignore them.

It was strange to speak of it. The great majority of Vermillion Bird Camp stayed inside the slave
transporting boats. The thick black fiendish energy was extremely bad for them, so Zuo Mo had
set up formation inside the boats to separate the black fiendish energy to stop it from corroding
everyone. But the little ones, including Silly Bird, did not react at all to the black fiendish energy.
Lil Pagoda and Lil Fire had the most energy and spend everyday playing. Lil Black was
unusually sleep, and spent more than half the days lying on A Guis head.
What puzzled Zuo Mo the most was that A Gui did not respond at all to the black fiendish
energy.
A Guis complexion was much better than before, and seemed to show some signs of life. After
inspection, Zuo Mo found that a thread of the strange purple light had appeared in A Guis body.
This purple power was extremely weak, but it was unusually valuable to A Guis crippled body.
A Guis situation turning for the better made Zuo Mos mood better.
However, Zuo Mo was still filled with worry. They hadnt found anything in more than ten days.
They hadnt encountered any living being, and did not see one stalk of grass. This ancient
battlefield was so desolate that it made people feel hopeless. Nothing could make a person feel as
terrified and hopeless as this deathly cold and empty vastness. Even if they encountered a danger,
or a yao beast, that would be much better than this.
If it continued like this, after just a short while, the people would go crazy.
Had they really come to a death ground that had nothing?
Suddenly, Zuo Mo stopped in his steps. He had a joyous expression in his eyes.
Water there was moisture in the air
He closed his eyes, spread his right hand, his fingers lightly wiped. [Little Art of Cloud and
Rain]!
After ten breathers, a faint white cloud the size of an infants face floated on Zuo Mos palm.
Now, it wasnt just Zuo Mo but everyone had that joyful expressions. The moisture in the air was
higher than ten days before and higher than the places they travelled through. Water, that meant
there was life.
What people were most afraid of was not hardship, but not being able to see hope.
Morale rose greatly. The advancing speed of the troop increased. The black fiendish energy in
the air became thicker. Zuo Mo became even more careful. According to Pu Yao, the direction
they were heading in was towards the center of the battlefield.
After travelling another five days, everyone saw the first water pond. The shallow water pond
was just a puddle, but for everyone, it was a salvation.
But at this time, the troop had to stop because Shu Long was having a breakthrough.
The black fiendish energy was like fertilizer for the [Hardship Guard] mo skill that Shu Long and
the others cultivated. Their progression speed was astounding. The other people of Guard Camp
progressed quickly, but no one surpassed Shu Long.
The mood of the camp was nervous. If Shu Long could successfully complete his breakthrough,
it would be a fortunate matter for them.
The three Golden Armor Guards lined up in a fan shape. The blinding golden scaled armor was
now covered in black patterns, and looked extremely terrifying. The black patterns on the Golden
Armor Guards was formed by the black fiendish energy that they had absorbed during this time.
According to Pu Yao, this was due to the fact that ancient dragon bone had been used to make the
Golden Armor Guards.
Pu Yao also said that if they were lucky, the three Golden Armor Guards may even level up.

However, what Zuo Mo was concerned with now wasnt the Golden Armor Guards, but another
problem.
Pu, what spell could prevent xiuzhe from being corroded by black fiendish energy? Or process
black fiendish energy? One that doesnt need them to start cultivating from the beginning, Zuo
Mo asked.
Pu Yao glanced at him, and dawdled, Of course there are spells.
Zuo Mo rubbed his hands, and said, Then can you give me a copy?
What can you give me in trade? Pu Yao raised his eyebrow.
Zuo Mo swore inside, this damned renyaos attitude was fickle and really hateful.
But he also knew that Pu Yao definitely would not let him have it easily. Pu Yao would get his
pound of flesh. Zuo Mo gritted his teeth and said, What do you want?
Pu Yaos bloody pupil narrowed as he smiled darkly.
Translator Ramblings: Naming-Fail-Zuo-Mo. Poor Tenth Grade, he doesnt know what his
master is thinking. Pu Yaos not giving anything more for free now that there is no lifethreatening danger. He has aims he wants accomplished.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Thirty Shu Longs
Black Halberd
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiofDoom and walord212.
Chapter Three Hundred and Thirty Shu Long Black Halberd
In the past, I had a nickname in the yao world Pu Yao said but he seemed to realize
something and switched the topic. Oh, lets not mention what is in the past. The people you
have dont have bad personalities, but their talent isnt great.
Pu Yao had a face full of helplessness. Zuo Mo knew he had more to say, and didnt interrupt.
You have been practicing the six transformations of the Great Day mo physique, and you have
let go of your yao arts. There hasnt been much development in your study of formations. Pu
Yaos expression darkened. Hmph, that guy took all the benefits.
Zuo Mo knew that Pu Yao was speaking of the gravestone. He rolled his eyes. Dont say that
Im not cultivating the yao arts. Who made it that your [Little Thousand Leaf Hands] isnt as
strong as the Great Day mo physique. You cant have me lose my life.
Pu Yao stopped speaking. The Great Day mo physique was domineering and unyielding. It really
wasnt an easy matter to find a yao art that could rival it at this stage. The few that he knew were
extremely rigid in their cultivation. Actually, the progression of Great Day mo physique was
extremely difficult, but Zuo Mo had muddled through it and succeeded. Pu Yao felt very
surprised at that fact.
Was Zuo Mo fated to cultivate mo skills?
Pu Yao felt even more discontent.
Ha, I dont care about that. Pu Yao smirked. Dont you want spells? No problem. Here, this is
the Little Yao Art Record. It is a very simple thing. Five hundred types. When you can cultivate
all of them, I will give you a spell.
Finishing, he threw a jade scroll at Zuo Mo. Ignoring the gaping Zuo Mo, he disappeared.

This guy was crazy!


After a while, Zuo Mos first thought was that Pu Yao was crazy. He then was furious. This guy
didnt look at the time. In such a dangerous place, he had the idle time act passive-aggressively
against the gravestone.
Pu! Come out!
Idiot, ge is telling you. If you dont want to live, dont pull ge along!
No matter how Zuo Mo swore, Pu Yao did not respond. After swearing for a while, Zuo Mo was
tired, and sat down. Scanning the jade scroll, his expression instantly became bitter.
He had once been troubled by the lack of spells. He had never thought there would be a day
where he would be troubled by having too many spells and yao arts to practice.
The power of the six transformations of the Great Day mo physique was out of his imagination.
He liked them a lot. He naturally would practise such life-saving moves everyday. The six
transformations didnt have many changes, but each transformation was vast and profound. It
wasnt an easy matter to master them.
He had just familiarized himself with the second transformation [Golden Crow Feet]. How
couldnt Zuo Mo be angry about Pu Yao doing this at such an important time?
If he could master all six changes, Zuo Mos power would rival that of a jindan third stratum
xiuzhe!
Zuo Mo suddenly swearing made everyone else still where they stood, their faces puzzled.

Shu Longs entire body was covered by thick black energy. In the last three days, he was
motionless like a statue wrapped in black energy. The entire Guard Camp was on their guard.
Shu Long was the first to make a breakthrough among them, and had attracted all of their
attention.
The black energy roiled like countless snakes slithering about.
Two balls shocking red light suddenly lit up among the thick inky black energy. The bloodthirsty savage eyes of a wild beast were Shu Longs eyes.
Ping!
Shu Longs right hand rose in front of his chest, then his right hand pressed against the air as he
made an extremely strange posture. He suddenly made a hoarse and deep roar.
The black energy around his body seemed to be stimulated and started to furiously flood towards
his hands. Large volumes of black energy flowed on his arms like a black snake.
In the blink of an eye, the black energy on his hands was so thick it seemed tangible.
The inky black energy dripped and flowed down to form a black stream about one zhang long.
The black energy on Shu Longs body continuously flowed towards this slender black flow. The
shocking red eyes revealed a hint of pain. The black energy around Shu Longs body suddenly
shook, and showed signs of dissipating. The surrounding people exclaimed in shock. But the
light of the red eyes brightened, and the slightly unsteady black energy seemed to be steadily
attracted by an invisible force. Everyone in the surroundings released a breath.
Between the two hands, the slender black flow slowly flowed and became even thicker and more
viscous. The speed of the flow became increasingly slow.
Even Zuo Mo ignored his headache and ran over. The other people didnt even dare to blink.
They all knew that Shu Longs weapon was about to form.

The black energy of the black slender flow suddenly grew. At the same time, Shu Longs eyes
brightened. His two hands that had been grasping at air suddenly tightened.
Pia!
The two large hands were like two pincers that suddenly gripped the black slender flow.
The threads of black energy spreading around the black slender flow dissipated. A long black
spear appeared on front of everyone. Hiss, the black energy around Shu Longs body burrowed
into his body, and revealed his black armor.
Shu Long has fortunately succeeded! Shu Long suppressed his excitement, and came in front
of Zuo Mo to bow.
After leveling up, the authority that Shu Long exuded was even more stern, and his power had
clearly gone up a stage.
Good good good! Zuo Mo was very happy. On one hand, he was happy that Shu Long had
made a breakthrough. On the other, the success of Shu Longs breakthrough created a great
increase in morale.
Zuo Mos eyes quickly landed on the long black halberd in Shu Longs hands. The long halberd
was about one zhang long, with a crescent curve, and a point. The shape was old-fashioned. The
body of the halberdwas as thick as a goose egg, smooth and glowing, it was extremely fine. At
the blade of the halberd was a hint of eerie red like the fangs of a wild beast tinged with blood.
Deep thick killing essence came from the body of the halberd. Looking at it from afar, it
definitely was a vicious weapon
Shu Long didnt just get the addition of the black halberd in this breakthrough. His armor had
also changed greatly. The thick black scales of armor became much thinner, the black color even
purer. The thick clumsy feeling had disappeared, and it seemed to become nimble.
The other people in Guard Camp couldnt resist any long and flooded over.
Seeing the situation, Zuo Mo smiled and stepped to the side.

Lei Peng looked from afar at the joyful Guard Camp and muttered, Shu Longs bunch is really
weird. They can even use black fiendish energy. We are unfortunate. We have to stay on the boats
every day. Its enough to suffocate us to death.
Blue-white sword lotuses bloomed and died among Nian Lus fingers. He said without raising
his head, If you have the energy to complain, spend some time practicing your sabre scripture.
Lei Pengs expression became even more depressed. Cultivate my ass! An isnt like you, if an
cultivates that sabre scripture, this boat will break.
Nian Lus sword scripture did not lack exquisite and small sword moves, but Lei Pengs sabre
scripture was wide and broad. If he left the slave transporting boats, under the corrosion of the
black fiendish energy, it wasnt just dangerous but the rate that ling power was expended was
also multiple times what it usually was. He would run out of ling power after just a few moves.
Ma Fan coincidentally passed by the two. Hearing this, he stopped and stared at Lei Peng.
At the beginning, Lei Peng didnt care, but after being stared at for a while, and seeing Ma Fan
still remain silent, he said self-consciously, What, why are you looking at an?
Ma Fan thought and then said, Your sabre scripture is powerful and domineering, but if you
could get it to become finer, its power will definitely go up a step.

Lei Peng stilled and then started to ponder it. He looked rough, but he wasnt dumb. If he was
dumb, he couldnt have comprehended sabre essence. Ma Fans words caused him to sink into
deep thought.
Ma Fan prepared to leave after speaking, but Nian Lu hurriedly pulled him back, and said
fawningly, Head, how can you be so cruel? Im also your vice commander! Teach me
something!
Ma Fan had an expression between smiling and crying. Two vice commanders, Lei Pengs
temper was explosive, but he was a chatterbox, while Nian Lu was warm, but he was a show-off.
He lowered his head to think. Your [Blue Lotus Sword Scripture] has many complex
transformations, but if you want to progress, dont linger on these transformations. You have to
make the complex simple, using sword essence at the core.
Sword essence at the core Nian Lu murmured unfocusedly.
Ma Fan silently left, but he also looked outside the boat and felt dejected. Xie Shan becoming a
jindan had been a great stimulus to him. His talent at cultivating the sword was exceptional, and
he had progressed very quickly when he focused, especially in the area of sword essence. He had
touched the border of sword essence manifestation. The only thing limiting him was his
cultivation.
But who would have thought they suddenly landed in this ghastly place. The ling energy was
thin, and that horrid black fiendish energy made it even worse than Little Mountain Jie. While
Little Mountain Jie was thin on ling power, but there was jingshi. They had jingshi right now, but
everyone didnt dare to use it to cultivate. Who knew how long they would stay in this ghastly
place? If they encountered danger, these jingshi would be life-saving!
Stuck at this point, how could his mood not be terrible? But his mentality was much more stable
than Nian Lu and Lei Peng and he could suppress it.

Zuo Mo stared in a daze as he held the Records of Little Yao Arts. Little Yao Arts were another
name for basic yao arts. They werent anything profound, but the contents were something every
yao had to practise. As he flipped through, Zuo Mo found that the difficulty of these little yao
arts were not hard. He didnt immediately start cultivating them, but pondered on what Pu Yaos
goal was.
Pu Yao was whimsical and ever changing. Zuo Mo had learned this countless times before, but
he had a strong feeling this time this was just the beginning of something.
This was the part that Zuo Mo really had a headache about.
He didnt know what was going on in Pu Yaos mind but it seemed he was very determined this
time. What would happen after would definitely affect his practice of the six transformations of
the Great Day mo physique. At this time, these six transformations were the basis of his lifesaving measures!
Zuo Mo rubbed his forehead in a headache. He had to think of a way to satisfy both.
Zuo Mo suddenly thought of the matter where Pu Yao had gotten him to study mo matrixes. His
mind moved. Was this Pu Yaos true goal? He remembered very clearly how much Pu Yao had
cared about formations. Even though he had eaten a jindans golden core, and Pu Yao looked to
have recovered greatly, but upon deeper thought, if Pu Yao could be healed with a single golden
core, he definitely wouldnt have been so nervous back then!
Was it the study of formations? Zuo Mo was slightly unsure.

After leaving Little Mountain Jie, Zuo Mo had been rushed by the series of events and hadnt
had the time to calm down to study formations. Zuo Mo was very clear about the value of
formations. If he slacked off right now, it was a pity. But right now, he didnt have the time to
personally work on it.
After thinking for a long time, Zuo Mo still couldnt get Pu Yaos goal, but he still decided to
restart his study of formations.
This time, he decided to make it a big move.
Translator Ramblings: In the middle of Pu Yaos plot. Zuo Mo cant do anything except go along
when he has no leverage.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Thirty One Disseminating
This chapter has been brought to you by me and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter Three Hundred and Thirty One Disseminating
Zuo Mo sat cross-legged as he recalled everything he had learned.
Formations, forging, fire manipulation, dan-making, he had dabbled in all of them, and formed
his own knowledge over time, but he had never systematically examined his knowledge. Having
a moment for self-assessment today, he unexpectedly found that what he learned was extremely
heterogeneous and the great majority of things were not systematic.
How could he work with this? He thought with a furrowed brow.

Wei Cheng Bin concentrated on reading the jade scroll in his hand. After leaving Little Mountain
Jie, all of Golden Crow Camp had been very idle. There were no missions and everyone could
study topics that they were interested in. Some people were very interested in conversing with
others. The present environment of Golden Crow Camp was extremely positive. Everyone had
went through hardship together, and had formed deep relationships. They had long thrown the
ideals of sect and family away. The two masters, Ji Wei and Sun Bao, would occasionally hold
lectures. Wei Cheng Bin would attend each one of them and would learn much.
It was a pity that they couldnt cultivate at present. Daren had allowed them to access great
numbers of jade scrolls, and there were many fourth-grade core scriptures suitable for production
xiuzhe. Everyone had originally been filled with motivation and planned on working hard on
their cultivation in the hopes of reaching jindan as early as possible. Who could have thought
they would end up in this place where they couldnt even cultivate. Everyone could only put their
attention on the jade scrolls, and content themselves with study.
Cheng Bin! A male popped his head in.
This male was called Wan Tian. His features were unusually ugly, but his fire manipulation skills
were uncanny and ranked first in the entire camp. Even the two masters, Sun Bao, and Ji Wei,
praised it endlessly.
What terrible idea do you have now? Wei Cheng Bin helplessly put down the jade scroll in his
hands.
Hee hee, Wan Tian snickered, and whispered, I want to get a bit of black fiendish energy to
study.

Black fiendish energy? Wei Cheng Bins heart jumped as he said with a serious expression.
Old Wan, dont mess around. Black fiendish energy is extremely dangerous. It isnt anything
that people of our cultivation can touch!
I know that. Wan Tian knew how dangerous it was. I just want to get a thread, and see the
mysteries of this black fiendish energy. This is a rare chance. We probably wont ever encounter
black fiendish energy again in the future.
Wei Cheng Bin was persuaded. It would be false to say he was not curious, but his personality
was a cautious one. He thought, and then said, This probably needs the approval of the two
masters.
Of course, of course. The masters usually rely on you. If you go to ask for it, there definitely
wouldnt be a problem, Wan Tian was overjoyed as he hurriedly said.
Just at this time, Master Sun Baos voice suddenly boomed out from from above, Everyone,
come to Golden Crow Hall immediately!
Wei Cheng Bin and Wan Tian exchanged a look and were both shocked. There was a hint of
excitement in Master Sun Baos voice.
Golden Crow Hall was the largest room in this slave transporting boat, and had been modified by
the two masters to be the place they held their lessons. When the two arrived, Golden Crow Hall
was filled with people. The two masters sat at the very front with barely disguised excitement.
After everyone had gathered, Master Sun Bao slowly swept a look across the people and took a
deep breath before saying solemnly, Today, Daren has given us a jade scroll. Recorded within it
is Darens knowledge and insights, including the Great Golden Crow Formation, how to make
yin fire beads, the fire paper method, a chapter on the seal scripts of the formation battle
watchtowers, the seal scripts for the body formations, and so on.
Boom, it was like an explosion occurred. Some were dumbstruck, some were unable to speak,
some were breathing heavily. Every name that came from the mouth of the master was a blow
that was like lightning streaking over their bodies.
Wei Cheng Bin and Wan Tian gaped as they were dumbstruck where they stood.
Wei Cheng Bin felt his head was ringing. He felt like he was dreaming. Was this real was
this real
Each name was a kind of lost knowledge, a bit of lost knowledge that should not be easily passed
onto others! For example, the Great Golden Crow Formation that could gather sunlight to form
Golden Crow Fire. If a sect knew someone had this formation, they would try to obtain it at any
cost.
Each person had uncontrollable joy on their faces, but gradually, the joy on their faces
disappeared and became serious.
The entire Golden Crow Hall was completely silent. The gravity of the situation showed on
everyones faces because this jade scroll was like mountain that weighed on everyones hearts!
The usually warm Master Ji Weis expression was cold and serious. When he spoke, his tone was
stern. Everyone knows the value of this jade scroll, theres no need for me to say more. Daren
led us out of Little Mountain Jie and did not abandon us. Now, he is imparting these rare and lost
knowledge to us. Let me ask, which sect can do so?
No one said a word. That was right, which sect could do so? No sect would be able to do so.
They had all been members of large sects before. Lost knowledge like this was unavailable to
anyone except the core disciples, no matter how much an individual contributed.
In just a few words, Master Ji Weis words made everyones hearts feel heavy.

So, Master Ji Weis heavy tone paused, his eyes lighting up and flashing across the people
present, I and Master Sun Bao have discussed and agreed that anyone who will learn from this
jade scroll must first make a killing heart oath. Our Golden Crow Camp will become its own sect
loyal to Daren!

Zuo Mo did not know what effect his actions created.


After putting in large amounts of effort, and producing that jade scroll, he sunk into frenzied
cultivation. But what made Pu Yao discontent was that Zuo Mo did not just cultivate the little
yao arts but practiced them together with the six transformations of the Great Day mo physique.
Was even this method useless?
Pu Yao wondered, but then he understood when he changed his way of thinking. Zuo Mo had
experienced the power of the Great Day mo physique and thought it was stronger, which was
why he was working so hard on it. Pu Yaos eyes looked towards the sky. Threads of black
energy floated in the blood-tinged sky. His eyes lit up. He snickered, and instantly felt unhurried.
Then his figure disappeared.
The next moment, he appeared in the Ten Finger Prison. Pu Yao was like a ghost, those yao art
jinzhi had no effect on him. His speed was wondrously fast as the scenery flashed by.

Chi suddenly stopped in his steps, his hair was red and his features were masculine like a lion,
and looked with shock towards the sky.
Teacher? What is it? the students beside him hurriedly asked.
Oh, nothing. Chi turned his gaze back, and pretended to be calm. Everyone, be careful. It is
your first trip to Ten Finger Prison. Vast Water Clear Skies should not have any dangers for you,
but still be careful, especially of provoking other yao.
The students beside him all agreed, their faces full of anticipation. They had all gotten to the
soul-planting stage, and were starting to try out real battle.
Chi did not speak. His gaze uncontrollably went back to the distance. Just now, he had barely
detected that a peerlessly powerful yao had passed by. This feeling wasnt clear, but it made him
feel fear.
Was it a Sky Yao?

I cant find it? That place is a bit strange! Pu Yao murmured to himself, his brows tightly
locked.

Zuo Mos legs were glittering with golden light as though they were made from gold. The pattern
of each muscle was clear and distinct. Dong, Zuo Mo was unable to control it well, and like a
knife carving into tofu, his right leg was deeply imbedded into the earth up to his hamstrings. At
the side, Shu Long and Xie Shans jaws gaped. The earth here had been tempered by thousands

of years of black fiendish energy, and was as hard as steel. But in front of Zuo Mos legs, they
seemed to be made of tofu.
If they were hit with that leg
Shu Long and Xie Shan reflexively turned their eyes away.
Zuo Mos forehead was covered with sweat. He pulled his right leg from the earth, but he lost
control of his left leg. Pew, that also sank into the earth. His figure lost balance and fell on the
ground. His body wasnt as strong as his legs, and he bared his teeth in pain.
The troop maintained a constant speed as it travelled, so Zuo Mo decided to cultivate using this
method.
[Light Void Wings] was meant for speed, and [Golden Crow Feet] was for power. Before this,
Zuo Mo found it hard to understand how those mo that focused on strength could rival the xiuzhe
that had powerful long-distance attacks. He only started to understand as he started to cultivate
[Golden Crow Feet].
Any kind of power was extremely terrifying when it reached a certain level.
When pure strength reached a certain level, it would form a boundary in the surroundings to
make a force boundary. Any other power that entered this area would be fiercely attacked. It was
possible to imagine how a flying sword of a xiuzhe would have to break this force boundary
before wounding its target.
Entering the force boundary, what the flying sword would face was a collision of power without
any finesse.
Zuo Mo was still a long way off from forming a force boundary, but he wasnt in a hurry. The
beautiful feeling of pure power intoxicated him. He used the time on the road every day to
practice the six transformations of the Great Day mo physique, and when he was resting, he
would cultivate the little yao arts.
As to the dangers in front, was of little concern to him but his cultivation took up all his time.
Compared to the difficulty of Zuo Mos cultivation, the cultivation speed of Tenth Grade was
astoundingly fast. He now had a black crescent flying blade beside him. This black flying knife
was like a black butterfly that danced and circled around Tenth Grade without exhaustion.
Even Shu Long was jealous. He had overcome great hardships to form his weapon, yet Tenth
Grade had cultivated his weapon in a month.
Lil Pagoda and Lil Fire curiously floated around Tenth Grade. The two little ones clearly were
filled with curiosity about this little black person.
Tenth Grade didnt even bat an eye. He concentrated on cultivation. Of course, he also knew the
connection between Lil Pagoda and Lil Fire to Master so he did not act.
But Tenth Grade, his goal was to reach tenth-grade! With such a high and grand goal, how could
he live a life of idleness with these people that only knew how to play everyday?
Tenth Grade raised his eyelid a crack and imperceptibly glanced at the two little ones as he
thought proudly.
Who knew that Lil Pagoda and Lil Fire found the black crescent blade flying around Tenth
Grade was very fun. They started to chase the black crescent and twirled around Tenth Grade .
Tenth Grade that wanted to focus on cultivation felt very irritated. He could not resist any longer.
Opening his eyes, his murderous intent brimmed. Go play somewhere else! Stop bothering me!
Lil Pagoda and Lil Fire shook and flew far away in fear.
Silly Bird who had been dozing suddenly opened her eyes. The bird eyes narrowed and flashed
savagely. Her figure suddenly disappeared from her spot.

Tenth Grade felt alarm, but he was unable to muster a response before a powerful force whipped
his body.
Bam!
He was like a rock that had been kicked and landed head first in the ground.
Who
The dizzy Tenth Grade tried to struggle up, his heart brimming with killing intent as he wanted to
attack.
An enormously big bird claw came from the sky. The enormous shadow covered Tenth Grade .
Pew!
Limbs spread out, Tenth Grade was splayed out and pinned to the ground by Silly Birds claws.
He was unable to move.
In Tenth Grades eyes, an enormous bird head with a pair of vicious eyes came down and stared
at him.
Tenth Grades body froze as he was dumbstruck.
Translator Ramblings: Zuo Mo is jade of all trades, master of none and worse off than being
master of one. He needs time, lots of time, ling power needs time to accumulate, mo physique
needs to be exercised and he needs to study and memorize yao arts. Golden Crow Camp takes
control of their own development.
Tenth Grade needs to learn the pecking order, which is Silly Bird at the top. Tenth Grade might
be a fifth-grade ling beast but hes just born and Silly Bird is stronger and more experienced.
Who knows what Silly Bird has eaten has affected her. I also realized something about the black
butterfly. Since Zuo Mo kept the butterfly in the card, it hasnt had much interaction with the rest
of the pets and so Zuo Mo doesnt seem to care about it the way he cares about other pets, even
weaker ones like Lil Black.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Thirty Two Fiendish Mist
This chapter has been brought to you by me, and WanderingGummiofDoom.
Chapter Three Hundred and Thirty Two Fiendish Mist
Hoo, finally finished learning the three hundredth little yao art.
Zuo Mo exhaled deeply. Little yao arts were not complicated at all, but there were so many kinds
it was a headache. If it wasnt that his consciousness foundation wasnt bad, it probably would
be much harder.
He suddenly raised his head. A disturbance was occurring at the front.
There was a situation!
Zuo Mo was not frightened and was happy. After so many days that he couldnt even remember
clearly, they hadnt encountered anything ever since entering this damned ancient battlefield. His
figure shifted and he appeared at the very front of the troop.
Not far away was a spread of thin bloody mist that seemed to have things moving inside it. The
bloody mist was very vast, and showed no end.
Out of caution, the troop had stopped.
Pu Yao came out and looked gravely at the bloody mist up head. Careful, this is fiendish mist.
Inside are fiend soul beasts.

It wasnt the first time Zuo Mo had heard Pu Yao mention fiendish soul beasts. Every time Pu
Yao spoke of them, his tone was very grave. He couldnt resist asking, Are those things very
powerful?
En, Pu Yao looked at the bloody mist up head, amazement unable to be disguised in his bloody
pupil, In any battlefield that has souls that have not transcended after death, the souls of those
dead would roam the battlefield. If the fiendish energy of the battlefield is heavy, these souls will
not dissipate, and will absorb fiendish energy to form fiendish souls. Over time, fiendish souls
will become fiendish soul beasts. This fiendish mist is a size never heard of before. The fiend
soul beasts inside will also be great.
Pu Yaos words made Zuo Mo feel hesitant. If it really was so dangerous, going into this bloody
mist
After a few moments of thought, he ordered for camp to be set.

Golden Crow Camp had completely transformed.


Golden Crow Hall was filled with people that gathered in groups of three to five to discuss their
studies. It was very noisy. This was an unique habit that they had formed during their time in
Little Mountain Jie. Everyone had come from small sects, and were limited in their knowledge.
Many of the problems that they encountered were not ones that could be resolved by themselves.
Out of helplessness, consolidating everyones strength became the only choice. Over time, this
became an unique habit of Golden Crow Camp.
The unique open environment of Golden Crow Camp and the trust built up due to persevering
through hardship together was the most fertile ground to grow these relationships. Zuo Mos
jade scroll was like a spring rain that instantly created vitality.
But today, they had not gathered to discuss problems of formations.
The fiendish mist is in front of us. Even though Daren has decided to temporarily make camp,
we need to prepare for entering the fiendish mist, Sun Bao said seriously.
Everyone listened careful. After they had all sworn the killing heart oath, they became much
closer. If before they were more like partners working together, then now everyone was of the
same sect.
I dont want to interrupt everyones cultivation plans, but the situation is an emergency, Ji Wei
continued. Our Golden Crow Camp must not drag Daren down, and needs to do our best to help
Daren. Otherwise, arent we useless?
Everyone nodded their heads with expressions of agreement.
Sun Bao nodded his head inside, and said in a deep voice, So, I and Master Sun Bao have
decided to gather all the strength of the camp to forge a talisman!

The five hundredth type!


An exhausted Zuo Mo collapsed onto the ground.
Zuo Mo had furiously cultivated the little yao arts just so he could get that spell from Pu Yao as
soon as possible. If they entered this fiendish mist, the ones in most danger were Vermillion Bird
Camp and Golden Crow Camp.
Entering the fiendish mist was truly stepping into the inner span on the ancient battlefield.

Even though it was dangerous up ahead, but Zuo Mo saw more hope than in the desolation that
he had seen these previous days. Pu Yao also supported this. The closer they were to the center of
the battlefield, the more likely he could recognize where they were.
Unless they could find a working transportation formation, finding the general position of this jie
was their only hope of leaving this place.
The bean-sized beads of sweat gathered in streams that flowed down his face. Zuo Mo didnt
wipe them off, and said in a hoarse voice, Pu, spell!
Alright. Pu Yao did not waste words and briskly handed over a jade scroll.
Grabbing the jade scroll, Zuo Mo felt he had recovered some energy and forced himself up to run
towards Vermillion Bird Camp. Behind him, Pu Yaos eyes flashed with an unusual light. He
imperceptibly murmured, Divine Summon Art really makes me anticipate

In front of Gongsun Cha, Vermillion Bird Camp finished their organization.


Everyone was silent and their eyes were full of anticipation. This was the first time they had
gathered after entering this ghastly place. Was there a mission? Many people couldnt help but
feel excitement. These battle maniacs felt moldy after spending every day on the boats.
From today, all of your training missions are temporarily cancelled, and changed to cultivating
this spell.
Gongsun Cha smiled slightly, and then Zong Ru and the others beside him quickly handed jade
scrolls to every person.
Everyone had a puzzled expression. Cultivate a new spell? But they suppressed their curiosity
and remained motionless.
Take a look.
Only when Gongsun Cha said these words did they hurry to read the jade scroll in their heads.
[Fiend Ling]
Gongsun Cha saw the shock and joy on all the faces, and smiled. With this spell, the combat
abilities of Vermillion Bird Camp would not drop but go up a level.
However, his own strength
His gaze turned to Zuo Shixiong who was cultivating in the distance and suddenly smiled.
After some more time, maybe he could give Zuo Shixiong a surprise.
The troop camped down at the border of the fiendish mist. The entire camp was busy. Even Zuo
Mo was cultivating. With the fiendish mist in front of their eyes, there was nothing else that
could motivate Zuo Mo even more. If he increased his strength by a fraction, then his chance of
surviving would increase by a fraction.
Motivated by the looming threat of impending doom, Zuo Mo uncovered his own potential, and
progressed quickly.
Right now, he had cultivated to the third transformation of the Great Day mo physique, [Day
Script Palm]. He felt very excited at the power of this move. This move would gather an
enormous golden palm over ten zhang in size. Under a palm strike, half of a mountain peak
would disappear. Even Xie Shan and Shu Long couldnt help but turn pale when they saw Zuo
Mo perform this move.
Xie Shan rejoiced greatly now that he hadnt let achieving jindan go to his head . He didnt know
where Daren had learned this strange moves from. Each move was enormously powerful. He
was certain if he fought against Daren, he had no chance of victory.

The longer he stayed with Zuo Mo, the more respect and awe Xie Shan felt. In his eyes, Zuo Mo
was filled with mysteries and enigmas.
Zuo Mos face was dusty. The palm of his hand hurt like it had been sliced with a blade. Three
golden lines could be made out on his palm. Relative to the power of the [Day Script Palm] was
its cultivation difficulty. Zuo Mo needed to cultivate to the point that his entire hand was covered
in golden lines that formed a network. At that point, the [Day Script Palm] could be considered
somewhat complete.
Each transformation of the six transformations of the Great Day mo physique was vast profound,
easy to learn but hard to master.
Pu Yao was unusual in that he did not disturb Zuo Mos cultivation of Great Day mo physique.
Did this guy also know it was dangerous up ahead? Zuo Mo was slightly reassured. If Pu Yao
went crazy, no one could stop him.
He raised his head and saw that everyone else was focusing on their cultivation. He was instantly
filled with motivation. So what if it was the fiendish mist? With this group of brothers, even if it
was places more dangerous than the fiendish mist, he was not afraid!
Having understood something, Zuo Mo said to Tenth Grade that was playing with Lil Pagoda
and Lil Fire, Tenth Grade, you have to work on your cultivation, and do not slack off!
Tenth Grade felt humiliated and his little face dropped. He looked with trepidation at Silly Bird,
and coincidentally saw a cold light flash through the small crack of Silly Birds eye as she was
resting. Tenth Grades body froze, and fully felt the impact of Lil Pagodas nudge.
Lil Pagoda was so excited it spun, and Lil Fire chirped happily from the side.
Silly Bird glanced at Tenth Grade and then closed her eyes.
Tenth Grade felt coldness shoot up from his spine and turned back to docilely play with Lil
Pagoda and Lil Fire.
Zuo Mo did not detect the strangeness of it. In his view, it was normal for Tenth Grade to play
with Lil Pagoda and Lil Fire. He turned his face, and looked with concern at A Gui.
Grabbing A Guis hand, a thread of consciousness was put into her body. Zuo Mo frowned. The
purple light inside A Guis body was very weak and showed no signs of strengthening. However,
what reassured him was that the black fiendish energy had no effect on A Gui.
Zuo Mo marvelled at this point. A Guis spells and secret techniques were strange and profound.
Even Pu Yao who thought himself as knowledgeable did not know of its origins.
However, Zuo Mo did not care about all that.
A Gui, we will definitely get out.
Zuo Mos voice was not loud, but was filled with determination.
Tenth Grade was filled with humiliation. To him whose goal was to become tenth-grade, it was a
great blow to submit to Silly Birds power even if it was done out of helplessness.
He had originally assumed he was Masters strongest ling beast but he hadnt thought there
would be one even stronger!
Truthfully, Tenth Grade did not like Silly Bird at all. This narcissistic and show-off bird had a
cold attitude towards Master, and should be executed for! He had the thought multiple times of
taking care of this silly bird for Master.
He hadnt expected he would be taken care off first
He wasnt just taken care off, but like an idiot, he had to play with these children of low
intelligence
Such a dark life!

Lil Pagoda didnt know Tenth Grades depressed mood. It was playing very happily. Having
successfully nudged Tenth Grade just now, both it and Lil Fire were greatly motivated to
continue playing. That was the first time they had managed to catch Tenth Grade .
Without noticing the three little ones gradually neared the fiendish mist.
Tenth Grade was enveloped in his low mood after being dominated while Lil Pagoda and Lil
Fire had completely gone off playing.
No one noticed the arrival of danger.
A dark red light suddenly flew out of the fiendish mist, and accurately struck Lil Pagoda.
The happily playing Lil Pagoda suddenly froze and dropped down like dead weight. This dark
red light rolled up like the long tongue of a monster and pulled Lil Pagoda to burrow back into
the fiendish mist.
This change happened without warning and was lightning fast.
Another dark red light leapt out at Lil Fire, and was going to strike Lil Fire.
Tenth Grade finally reacted by this time. The dark little face filled with killing intent, the two
eyes glaring angrily as the flying black crescent blade turned to a black light and struck the red
light.
The red light hissed and fled towards the fiendish mist.
Silly Bird suddenly opened her eyes, viciousness flashing through both of her eyes. With a call,
her figure disappeared.
Translator Ramblings: The easy peace has been broken peaceful arcs are much easier to
translate.
The Little One a.k.a Zuo Mos quasi-son is now in trouble. Im sorry you didnt get to see the
yao arts even though Zuo Mo has master all five hundred little yao arts but that will come in the
future.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Thirty Three Fiend
Soul Tide
This chapter has been brought to you by me, and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter Three Hundred and Thirty Three Fiend Soul Tide
With an explosive sound echoing through the air, Silly Bird darted off like a grey bolt of
lightning and headed into the fiendish mist.
A piercing wail came out of the fiendish mist as the red light that Tenth Grade wounded
suddenly exploded into dots of red light. Among the red dots, Silly Bird stood with murderous
eyes.
Yet Lil Pagodas figure had disappeared.
The killing intent in Silly Birds eyes grew. The grey feathers on her forehead stood on end.
Tenth Grade flew next to Silly Bird, his face heavy. The black crescent blade danced around his
body, killing energy spreading outwards in threads. Even if he was at odds with Silly Bird and
the others, but they were all Masters ling beasts. Even more, the change had occurred right in
front of his eyes. How could he not be angry?
Without any hesitation, Silly Birds large eyes narrowed, and like an arrow, she charged into the
fiendish mist.

Tenth Grades face froze. He jumped up, turning into a black light, and entered the fiendish mist.
Everyone else was alerted and prepared to enter the fiendish mist.
Do not go in!
Zuo Mos voice came from behind them. They saw Zuo Mos face full of suppressed pain, and he
sat down cross-legged immediately after saying this.
Everyone stared at each other. Many people had panicked expressions.
Zuo Mos present situation was not very good. Lil Pagoda was his soul-tethered talisman, and
was connected in mind with him. The moment that Lil Pagoda was attacked, Zuo Mo felt it. The
injuries that Lil Pagoda had taken also affected Zuo Mo. Zuo Mo felt his mind was shaken and
had almost shattered. Shocked, he instantly sank into his mind.
A thread of his mind connected him with the distant Lil Pagoda.
Zuo Mos consciousness was not weak, and his mind was strong. Even though he shook, he
quickly steadied, and the connection with Lil Pagoda cleared up.
But Zuo Mo was not happy at all and felt terrible. His connection to Lil Pagoda had not been cut
off, but no matter how he called out mentally, Lil Pagoda did not respond. Gritting his teeth, Zuo
Mo put a thread of his mind, he entered Lil Pagodas body.
When his mind entered Lil Pagodas body, Zuo Mo finally understood how terrible the situation
was.
The balls of pure five element energies inside the pagoda had stopped moving and hung
motionless inside the void of the pagoda. Usually, the pure five element energies would be in
balance, creating and subduing each other, as they spun endlessly to form a simple yet wondrous
little five element world.
Zuo Mo was clear on the wondrous process of the five element being created and destroyed
within the pagoda. How could he not be shocked finding that the pure five element energies
inside Lil Pagodas body had stopped moving?
The amount of pure five element energies inside Lil Pagoda was hundreds of times larger than
when Zuo Mo had first bought it. This enormous amount had come from Lil Pagodas
continuous deconstruction of talismans and materials. Zuo Mo could see the five element
marrow that was being formed out of the five elemental energies. Eventually these five element
marrow would reach a critical mass and it would form small amounts of five element base
source.
Every bit of five element base source was unusually valuable and powerful.
Lil Pagodas body was filled with abundant pure five element energies, and even contained a
small amount of five element marrow, but it had not created any five element base source yet.
Zuo Mo took a deep breath. He had no way to push the gigantic balls of pure five element
energies floating above his head. He was the owner, but it had always been Lil Pagoda itself that
had always controlled the circulation of pure five element energies.
The most effective method was for Lil Pagoda itself to recover.
However, he still did not know what Lil Pagoda had been wounded by. He could feel the
existence of Lil Pagoda, could enter Lil Pagodas body, but was unable to communicate with
Lil Pagoda.
Pu Yao suddenly appeared next to Zuo Mo.
It is a fiend soul. Pu Yao stared at the five balls of five element pure energy in the void, and
said faintly, This five element pagoda is filled with intelligence, and is irresistible to fiend
souls.

Fiend souls? Zuo Mo didnt have the time to ask how Pu Yao could come in and hurriedly
asked, What does this have to do with fiend souls?
Fiend souls are born from the fiendish mist, and over time, they will form a slight intelligence.
When they become more intelligent, they will start to process fiendish energy and become fiend
soul beasts. Pu Yao looked back and said gravely, Fiend souls love materials and talismans that
have intelligence the most. They can slowly corrupt it and make it their own so they can quickly
progress to becoming fiend soul beasts.
Zuo Mos eyes turned cold.
They usually kill each other to capture the intelligence and to continuously become stronger.
Not just fiend souls do this, fiend soul beasts also do this. Pu Yao reminded him, You have to
be careful. Ive never seen a fiend mist cloud of this size. The number of fiend souls contained in
it should be astounding.
As Pu Yaos voice landed, Zuo Mos expression suddenly changed.
Because he saw three red lights.
It was the first time Zuo Mo had seen a fiend soul. They were like balls of mist covered in a layer
of blood red fiend mist. From afar, they looked like curving red worms of various sizes. The
longest was one chi, and the smallest was not even half a cun in size.
The vicious and destructive presence that each one had was like the dark wind from hell that
filled every part of the void.
Zuo Mo could feel the primitive and innate viciousness killing intent in the fiend souls.
Suddenly, Zuo Mo thought of being at Wu Kong Mountain and using [Art of Aged Gold] to kill
worms inside the ling grains. The presence of those pests could not compare to these fiend souls,
of course, but he was far more powerful than he was in the past.
After experiencing so many battles, would Zuo Mo become timid and panicked by such a little
scene?
Zuo Mo was preparing to activate [Light Void Wings] to smash these three fiend souls when he
suddenly remembered that he was just a bit of soul at the moment. How could he activate [Light
Void Wings]? However, he reacted quickly, and raised his hands for three bolts of Yang Fiendish
Hard Lightning.
Pia pia pia.
The three bolts of Yang Fiendish Hard Lightning accurately hit the three fiend souls. The three
fiend souls didnt even have the time to wail before they were destroyed.
Zuo Mo released a breath. So these fiend souls were paper tigers. They made a lot of noise, but
there werent even worth a single blow.
So when he saw six fiend souls burrow in, he did not hesitate to continue casting Yang Fiendish
Hard Lightning.
Fiend souls continuously crawled in so Zuo Mo continuously cast Yang Fiendish Hard Lightning.
After a few dozen bolts, his expression became ugly.
The fiend souls did not amount to much individually but their numbers continuously increased as
they borrowed in. Zuo Mo was just being supported by a thread of consciousness at the moment.
The Yang Fiendish Hard Lightning was strong, but it expended a lot of spiritual power. If it
continued like this, he wouldnt be able to continue for much longer.
Use the little yao arts, Pu Yao reminded idly from the side.
Zuo Mos hand shook, and he was instantly furious. Pu Yao, what do you mean? Are you just
standing aside and watching?

Pu Yao spread his hands and shrugged, his face full of helplessness. It isnt that I dont want to
help, but I cant. This is your soul-tethered talisman. You who can use ling power here, but no
other person can. It wasnt easy for me to come in. If I acted, it wont be the fiend souls, but
these five big guys above will instantly attack me.
Pia pia pia!
Large amounts of multi-colored light flew out of the five balls of five element pure energy. These
five colored energies were like sword energies and were very sharp. When they hit a fiend soul,
the fiend soul would instantly be destroyed. In the blink of an eye, a large patch had been
cleared.
Seeing the situation, Zuo Mo was overjoyed. The pressure on him would lessen if these five balls
of five element pure energy could automatically defend themselves.
Pu Yao naturally understood what Zuo Mo was thinking, and poured cold water. Dont be
prematurely happy. The number of fiend souls in this fiendish mist is much higher than you can
imagine.
As he said, the number of fiend souls that crawled in increased dramatically. Zuo Mos heart beat
wildly. The fiend souls were like an endless tide. The defense of the pure five element energies
were still just as sharp, but Zuo Mo could see that the pure five element energies were smaller
than before.
If it continued like this ..
Zuo Mo instantly felt panic. The fiend souls that burrowed in covered all the spaces as they
furiously leapt at the pure five element energies. Some even leapt at Zuo Mo.
Damn it!
Just as Zuo Mo was stuck on what to do, Pu Yaos reminder sounded at his ears, Use little yao
arts.
Pu Yaos voice was not idle like before and was full of panic.

Inside the fiendish mist, an enormous blood-colored twister was forming. The fiend mist seemed
to suddenly wake up and became restless. Countless fiend souls came from all directions and
furiously charged at this twister. At the center of this blood red twister, Lil Pagoda rolled among
countless fiend souls. This fiend souls furiously tried to burrow into the pagoda, but there were
so many fiend souls that no more could enter.
The countless fiend souls formed a terrifying tide that pulled the flashing Lil Pagoda deeper into
the fiendish mist.
Such a large noise disturbed even the stronger fiend soul beasts inside the fiend mist. Countless
pairs of eyes opened and flashed viciously.
Silly Bird charged recklessly in the fiendish mist. For some unknown reason, the fiendish mist
that was like poison to others couldnt come within three chi of Silly Bird. Everywhere she
passed, the rolling red fiend souls seemed to have been frightened and rushed to dodge.
Silly Birds vicious eyes showed signs of panic. She charged in all directions and looked around
to search for Lil Pagodas figure.
Tenth Grades little body was like a fish in the water in the fiend mist. Inside the fiend mist, the
black crescent blade that expanded to more than ten zhang large. With a long black energy, it was
like a powerful axe. What was most strange was that this enormous black axe seemed to have a
powerful magnetism that stopped fiend souls from struggling and sucked them in.

Tenth Grade s expression was serious. The blood red hair floated up like a ball of flame.

Little yao arts? Which type? Zuo Mos hands did not stop moving as he rapidly asked.
Number seventy six, and three hundred and thirteen, use Interlocking Gold Form, Pu Yao
hurriedly said.
The damned Pu Yao!
Making ge play with high difficulty moves at this time!
Zuo Mo wanted to spit blood, but he didnt have the time to swear at Pu Yao now. The situation
was becoming more dangerous. Several fiend souls had almost charged into the pure five
element energies.
He gritted his teeth and his hand movements changed.
Number seventy six number three hundred and thirteen
Zuo Mos eyes widened greatly. Gritting his teeth, his left hand was like water flowing that
created threads of light, his right hand seemed to weigh thirty thousand catties, moving slow and
heavy without sound.
Zuo Mo tried to maintain the yao arts on his two hands. The two little yao arts alone did not pose
any difficulty, but he instantly felt burdened when he casted them at the same time.
The left hand that moved so rapidly it was blurring with light, and the quiet, snail-slow right
hand was abnormally fitting, and strangely reached the front of his chest at the same time.
Interlocking Gold Form
Zuo Mo boldened his heart and channelled all his consciousness.
At the same time, his hands crossed, the left hand covered in thread of light like water flowing
into the motionless right hand and tangled together.
Pu Yaos bloody pupil suddenly widened!
Translator Ramblings: We get to witness Lil Pagodas gluttony I wonder how many
jingshi is the equivalent of talismans and materials it has consumed.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Thirty Four Archaic
Wasteland Sacrificial Art
This chapter has been brought to you by me, and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter Three Hundred and Thirty Four Archaic Wasteland Sacrificial Art
Time seemed to suddenly slow at this moment.
The threads of flowing light were like sprouting branches of light that slowly crept and wrapped
around Zuo Mos empty right hand.
Pu Yaos mind was suddenly pulled into his memories. Some blurry and distant scenes seemed to
overlap onto what was happening in front of him, as though they had occurred yesterday.
Teacher
With the imperceptible murmur, the edges and coldness within the bloody pupil disappeared.

All of Zuo Mos attention was focused on the change occurring on his hands. He could feel a
strange transformation taking formation in this short moment.
what was this?
This was just combining two kinds of little yao arts. Compared to the [Yang Fiendish Hard
Lightning] that came from the [Little Thousand Leaf Hands], it wasnt just simple and low level,
there was no way to compare them. [Little Thousand Leaf Hands] contained all kinds of yao arts
and was created by a Sky Yao. It was vast and profound. Even a person with his eyes at the top of
his head like Pu Yao praised it.
But little yao arts?
Five hundred kinds of little yao arts. They were the essential contents every yao had to cultivate.
Any yao must finish learning the five hundred kinds of little yao arts within their clan before
they could enter the yao art houses. In other words, little yao arts were the most rudimentary
knowledge of yao cultivation.
But
The power that exploded between his hands
The last bit of light flowed from Zuo Mos left hand and wrapped onto his right hand.
Hiss-crack!
Zuo Mo suddenly felt blinding light burst forth in front of his chest. A power filled with
destructiveness formed on his right hand like an ancient and wasteland great beast breathing an
aged presence as it reared up and authoritatively gazed down upon those it tread beneath its feet.
All of the fiend souls seemed to be paralyzed. Time seemed to stop inside the chaotic pagoda.
As extreme movement turned to extreme calm, Pu Yao stared soullessly at Zuo Mos right hand,
his murmur clear to hear, Archaic Wasteland Sacrificial Art
Zuo Mo didnt hear any of Pu Yaos murmur. He was shocked by the light and terrifying
presence on his hand. He had completely lost the ability to think. He seemed to unconsciously
move his right hand. He saw his right hand lightly sway easily like the flick of a fishs tail.
Among the blinding light, an extremely faint shadow flew out of his right hand and suddenly
grew. It was like a monster that suddenly opened its bloody maw and swallowed all the fiend
souls inside the pagoda.

In the fiendish mist, Lil Pagoda that was completely surrounded by fiend souls suddenly shot
out countless blinding rays of light. An enormously strong suction force came from inside the
tower. Tens of thousands of fiend souls were unable to run away and were instantly sucked into
the pagoda.
Just at the same time, a simple and bleak presence came from inside the pagoda.
The fiend souls that had not been sucked in seemed to be frightened. They instantly scattered like
there was a frightening monster inside Lil Paogda. In the deeps of the fiendish mist, those fiend
soul beasts that were higher on the food chain wore frightened expressions in their faces. All of
them laid on the ground, and didnt dare to move.

Zuo Mo felt very terrible now. The fiend souls were completely eaten, but he was stuffed full
right now like he had eaten too much. What caused him to panic even more was that these fiend
souls hadnt died, and were just restrained in a layer of this strange power.
If this power lost control of these fiend souls, they would charge out again!
Little yao art number one and number five hundred, use Straight Pass-Through Form.
Pu Yaos voice coincidentally arrived. Zuo Mos hands paused slightly. His first feeling was that
it was not possible. Of the five hundred little yao arts, it encompassed almost all of the basics of
yao arts, and many of them had incompatible characteristics. Number one and five hundred were
the two yao arts that had the most incompatible and conflicted attributes of almost all antithetical
yao arts.
How could two antithetical little yao arts be cast at the same time?
But time did not permit him to think. After pausing, his hands uncontrollably moved according to
Pu Yaos words.
Number one number five hundred
A peerlessly strange feeling came. Zuo Mo felt unspeakably awkward. He had felt awkward
when he had cast number seventy six and number three hundred and thirteen at the same time.
Compared to that, his feeling of awkwardness was multiple times stronger.
What method was this
Zuo Mo endured the peerlessly awkward feeling and managed to cast the two little yao arts
together.
Pu Yaos bloody pupil stared unblinkingly at the coiling light that formed in front of Zuo Mo,
and unconsciously stopped breathing. He appeared as though he feared his breath would frighten
this enchanting and grand light. The two hands that he usually liked to hide in his sleeves
unconsciously extended outwards.
His expression was also very strange. It was filled with anticipation, but was also as though he
was facing a great enemy.
The strong feeling of awkwardness increased as the light rose. Zuo Mo felt as though his body
was being twisted from the left and right in opposite directions.
He knew this was a false feeling. At this time, he was just a thread of soul, what body was there
to twist and contort? But he also knew this feeling of conflict actually existed. This was the
conflict between laws.
As soon as he casted them, he knew it wasnt good.
Under the effect of two extreme laws, if he wasnt careful, he would be ground to powder at any
time. Under the conflict between two basic laws, this bit of his consciousness was as weak as
paper. His mind was being supported on this thread of consciousness. If this was destroyed, his
outcome would not be any different than death.
The hardest injury to heal was an injury to the soul.
A Gui was wounded in the soul, and was left like a puppet. Was he going to become like her?
With the stimulation of death, Zuo Mo got a burst of energy from somewhere and forcibly
calmed himself down.
However, how could two such opposed yao arts be combined using the Straight Pass-Through
Form?
Not possible It was completely impossible
In a flash, countless thoughts flashed through his mind but he still did not know what to do with
the two little yao arts in front of him. The two little yao arts were simple and straightforward.

Any change tn the two were noticed by his awareness, but due to this, he increasingly felt it was
impossible.
The two were like two carriages that were rushing in opposite directions. Right now, he had to
pull them together. How was it possible?
Impossible impossible
Zuo Mo panicked. The two little yao arts started to conflict. He was able to feel every conflict
that happen between the two forces. The feeling of danger grew like there was a sword hanging
above his head. He was unable to move, and right now, there was a mouse gnawing on the rope
holding the sword.
Calm, he had to be calm!
Zuo Mos breathing almost stopped. He told himself repeatedly to be calm, he forced himself to
calm.
What to do what to do
Suddenly, it was like a bolt of lightning from the sky. He suddenly recalled the spell formation
that he had created in the past. In that variety of spells and sword scriptures, there were also
conflicting and incompatible spells and sword scriptures, but he had successfully merged them
together.
That heterogeneous spell formation was what he had bet on with Pu Yao to win the six
transformations of the Great Day mo physique.
It was a pity that he had thrown that set of spell formations to the side when he got the Great Day
mo physique six transformations and concentrated on cultivating the six transformations.
Zuo Mo had no time to regret why he hadnt kept on working with the spell formations. He
worked his brain and tried to remember how he had merged those incompatible spells and sword
scriptures into the formation at the time.
He thought of how he had controlled those conflicting spells.
His mind moved. Ignoring the ever increasing feeling of danger, he patiently felt every bit of
conflict between the two little yao arts.
His consciousness suddenly split into two like two thin whips, and used two completely different
powers to insert into the light of the two little yao arts.
A strange transformation occurred.
The two powers that had been furiously conflicting with each other used a strange form and
started to spin in opposite directions.
Light lit up in Zuo Mos eyes. The conflict between the two little yao arts decreased and the
distance between the two lights decreased. There was none of the enmity and conflict seen
before. They were like twins that gathered together.
Moving naturally, Zuo Mos hands seemed to be controlled by something and used the Straight
Pass-Through Form.
A force that was not strong accurately passed through the center of the two little yao arts.
Zuo Mo instantly understood.
The light of Pu Yaos bloody pupil was as deep as the ocean. He looked dazedly at the strange
yet familiar power in front of Zuo Mo and lightly breathed three words.
Divine Summoning Art!
The shape on front of Zuo Mos chest was like that of a mill stone. The light clearly divided into
black and white suddenly created a strong suction. This suction was so strong that even Pu Yao
was affected. His black robe flapped as it was pulled. Pu Yaos bloody pupil lit up, his figure
remaining motionless.

The strange power that had been enveloping the fiend souls was like a cat that smelled fish,
impatiently chasing the countless fiend souls towards this strange black-and white millstone.
The black and white lights were like the upper and lower parts of the millstone. With astounding
speed, it silently crushed countless fiend souls.
The fiend souls did not even have the time to wail before they were completely crushed.
Dots of white light floated off the millstone.
Zuo Mos mind moved and he started [Embryonic Breathing Spiritual Cultivation]. The dots of
white light gathered from all directions like raindrops and entered his body. At the same, the
white light that Zuo Mo did not absorb entered the five balls of five element pure energies.
Zuo Mos entire body was enveloped in the white light to the point his figure was indistinct.
Pu Yaos black robe flapped. His bloody pupil stared without movement at Zuo Mo. He just
stood there silently without a word.

Silly Bird who had been running around in the fiendish mist suddenly turned her head. The
vicious eyes slowly became gentle until she resumed her usual lazy and proud state. She idly
turned and strutted her bird walk. There was none of the killing energy that had just been present.

Riding the black crescent blade that was like a huge axe, Tenth Grades little face suddenly
stilled. Feeling it in his mind, he did not hesitate to ride the black crescent and turn. His speed
was suddenly raised to its limit as he cut through the heavy fiendish mist, howling by.

In the fiendish mist, Lil Pagoda was covered in a layer of faint white light. The fiendish mist in
the surroundings was separated out.

Just at this time, Zuo Mo opened his eyes within the pagoda.
Translator Ramblings: Oh Pu Yao, if you just want something, ask for it. You went around in
such a roundabout way doesnt it waste time? But this way, it is free since Zuo Mo is
forced to do it and Pu Yao didnt have to pay him.
Also, I should be in the middle of my road trip at the time this chapter is posted if I havent
screwed up scheduling. Ill return home within the next ten hours or so if everything is according
to plan.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Thirty Five Gains
This chapter has been brought to you by me, and WanderingGummiofDoom.

Chapter Three Hundred and Thirty Five Gains


Opening his eyes, joy flashed across Zuo Mos eyes. The richness of his gains this time far
surpassed his imagination.
Each fiend soul was refined to powder, leaving behind only the purest thread of soul base source.
Soul base source like this was so valuable that every xiuzhe dreamed about obtaining it. The
thread of consciousness that was Zuo Mo at this moment was forcibly expanded at an
exponential rate.
Savoring the intoxicating taste, Zuo Mo seemed to have just tasted gourmet food. Other than
satisfaction, he wanted to taste it again.
However, this thread of greed spun once in his mind before disappearing.
He cared more about Lil Pagodas situation.
Of all the little ones, Lil Pagoda was the most obedient and the one that Zuo Mo liked the most.
However, when his gaze turned to the five enormous balls of pure five element energies above
his head, he couldnt help but release a breath. There was none of the slowness and stiffness from
before. The pure five element energies spun continuously.
A simple yet profound five element power was displayed in front of him.
Before he could examine it closely, a five colored light suddenly flew in front of him. It was Lil
Pagoda.
Seeing Lil Pagoda was uninjured, Zuo Mo instantly smiled. He grabbed Lil Pagoda, and said in
concern. My good son, you are alright!
He found that Lil Pagoda seemed to have slightly changed. Other than becoming more round in
shape, the feeling was much softer, and the five element marrow were much rounder than before
and twinkled with light.
Lil Pagoda snuggled in Zuo Mos hands and rolled around to prove it was fine.
A lively and fawning thought was communicated into Zuo Mos mind. Zuo Mo couldnt resist
grinning. Zuo Mo quickly found to his shock that Lil Pagoda was more lively and smarter than
before! The thoughts that Lil Pagoda passed to him were clearer and it had a wider variety of
emotions.
It seemed that he wasnt the only one that had benefited this time!
When he looked around, Zuo Mo made a sound of surprise when he looked at the pure five
element energies. His mind was connected with Lil Pagoda. In his eyes, the pure five element
energies were transparent. There were basket sized inner cores within the pure five element
energies. This was five element marrow!
Such large balls of five element marrow. Zuo Mo drooled when he saw them.
Five element marrow was a very rare kind of marrow. Even the tiniest bit was very valuabe.
Feeling the desire in Zuo Mos heart, the five large balls of five element marrow instantly floated
in front of Zuo Mo. Seeing the five enormous balls of five element marrow, it would be a lie to
say he didnt covet it, but when Zuo Mo saw the obedient and adorable Lil Pagoda beside him,
his heart warmed and the greed disappeared.
Zuo Mo rubbed Lil Pagodas head, and said with a smile, Alright, put them back. They are for
you.
Lil Pagoda seemed puzzled that Zuo Mo wanted them yet he refused.
Only with five element marrow can you create five element base source in the future. When you
have five element base source, our Lil Pagoda will be very strong!

Lil Pagoda didnt quite understand but it could feel Zuo Mos happiness so it happily flew
around Zuo Mo.
Bam!
Zuo Mo felt the world shake. His heart shook. Had they come again?
When he spread out his consciousness, he found it was Silly Bird that had create the disturbance.

Silly Bird seemed to know Zuo Mo was watching her. She rolled her eyes and ignored him.
Holding Lil Pagoda in her beak, she raised her wings and headed straight for the camp.
Along the way, she encountered Tenth Grade. When Tenth Grade saw Silly Bird holding Lil
Pagoda in her beak, his little face eased slightly. But his expression quickly became extremely
ugly. Silly Bird was like a bolt of lightning that flashed by him and disappeared.
That speed
Gritting his teeth, he pushed the black moon to its limits and chased the whole way but he still
couldnt see Silly Birds back.
Last time, Tenth Grade had not accepted his defeat at Silly Birds claws. But the speed that Silly
Bird displayed today made him feel suffocated.
Detecting the difference in ability, it did not discourage Tenth Grade but lit up his motivation!
If he couldnt defeat a bird, how could he reach the peak of tenth-grade?
On the black moon, Tenth Grade balled his fists, pressed his lips together, his tender face was
filled with determination.

At the same time Silly Bird carried Lil Pagoda back to camp, Zuo Mo woke up from his
meditation. When the enormous thread of consciousness returned to his body, it was like an
abundant stream of water flowing into a deep pond. The level of water in the pond instantly
exploded.
Zuo Mo was so comfortable he wanted to groan.
Three times!
The consciousness in his body had grown three times over!
This was a number that almost drove Zuo Mo insane. When he opened his eyes, he felt as though
he had a fantastical dream. Multiplying three times in one night. He had never heard of such an
impossible matter,and it had happened on his body.
He rushed to find Pu Yao. Pu, what happened?
Pu Yaos expression was calm and he did not look any different than usual. He twisted his mouth.
Nothing, you have good luck.
Seeing the enthusiasm on Zuo Mos face, Pu Yao who hadnt prepared to say more suddenly saw
the scene of Zuo Mo casting the little yao arts in front of him. He thought and then said, Fiend
souls are created from remnant threads of soul. You absorbed their soul base source. It is the first
time I have seen something like this.
He did not lie. Only a fiendish mist of such scale could form such a large number of fiend souls.
Everything here was far out of Pu Yaos imagination.
So fiend souls can nurture the consciousness! Zuo Mos eyes lit up. Good thing! Good thing!

Pu Yao saw Zuo Mo and knew what he was planning. To other people, these fiend souls were
very dangerous, and their minds would be easily corroded if they were not careful. It was not a
simple matter to forge fiend souls into pure soul base source. Yes, fiend souls were created by
that thread of soul, but these soul remnants were the convictions of those that died, and contained
all kinds of negative emotions. Over long periods of slaughter and fighting, they became even
more vicious and dangerous.
Would it be an easy matter to process them?
Unless
Pu Yao looked dazedly at Zuo Mo. Even though he had speculations and anticipation before, but
when he saw Zuo Mo cast the Archaic Wasteland Sacrificial Art with his own eyes, the blow of
shock he received was stronger than anyone else.
He suddenly turned and glanced at the gravestone.
Many of the previous incidents had just been him acting rashly in anger against the gravestone,
but now
The gravestone seemed to detect Pu Yaos thoughts. The black energy suddenly grew!
Immersed in his wonderful dreams, Zuo Mo noticed the abnormality of the gravestone. He
pointed with shock at the gravestone and asked Pu Yao with a curious expression, What is it
doing?
Pu Yaos mood suddenly became good. Glancing at the gravestone, he snicked, Oh, he saw your
consciousness improved greatly and is happy for you.
Oh! Zuo Mo understood and then asked, Right, Pu, what are the two moves you taught me
today called? They are very powerful!
Looking at Zuo Mo, Pu Yao felt even better and looked, with mirth at the corner of his mouth, at
the gravestone.
Before, I did not compete with you, but now
The mirth at his lips disappeared. He turned his gaze to Zuo Mo, and raised an eyebrow. How is
it? Nice to use? Not lacking compared to the Great Day mo physique?
Not lacking, not lacking! Zuo Mo rubbed his hands and snickered.
Have you not clearly seen the true quality of this person this person would call
anyone that gives him milk mother
Pu Yao was very smug.
But my path overall has more of a future than your road
Teacher, are you happy
Countless thoughts flashed through Pu Yaos mind.
Zuo Mo found to his surprise that Pu Yaos expression had become stern.
It is called the Archaic Wasteland Sacrificial Art. Pu Yaos voice was deep. Just like [Little
Thousand Leaf Hands] it is an entire set of yao arts, and was created by another Sky Yao, my
teacher.
Your teacher? Zuo Mo was very shocked.
Pu Yao would rarely speak of the past. This was the first time Pu Yao had spoken of his own
history.
Yes, my teacher! Pu Yao had an reminiscent expression. His expression was stern without any
of the nonchalance he usually had. He looked focusedly at Zuo Mo. Zuo Mo, are you sure you
want to learn?
Pu Yaos complete shift in attitude caused Zuo Mo to feel the unusual nature of this matter.

He didnt agree immediately and asked cautiously, Pu, to learn this set of Archaic Wasteland
Sacrificial Art, are there any requirements?
Very simple, you accept the succession of this branch.
Can you be more concrete? Zuo Mo carefully asked.
Concrete? Pu Yao stilled. He had never thought about the problem of accepting students. Being
asked by Zuo Mo now, he didnt know what to say. He tilted his head and thought back to when
Teacher had accepted him.
Before you accept students, you must travel to the First Yao Art House of the yao realm and
enter your name into the Sky Yao Pavilion.
Thinking about it, Pu Yao suddenly felt ashamed. He remembered the hopes Teacher had for him.
Even though he had become a Sky Yao, but due to other reasons, he had not realized Teachers
hopes.
This demand surprised Zuo Mo.
Oh, you dont need me to swear an oath?
Not necessary.
No rules?
No.
No restrictions?
No.
The more Zuo Mo asked, the stranger he felt the situation was. This sect, oh, in his
understanding, it was a sect. The requirements for acceptance for this sect was really low. As to
being entered in Sky Yao Pavilion, Zuo Mo didnt think of it as an important matter.
Accept students? That matter had nothing to do with him. Sky Yao Pavilion, who even knew
what that was? But as long as he did not accept students, that had nothing to do with him.
By the end of the inquiry, Zuo Mo still didnt quite believe it. Were yao sects so easy to enter?
In xiuzhe sects, every disciple had their duties, each needed to contribute to the sect in order to
receive benefits.
Yet Pu Yaos sect didnt need any service and he could get benefits. It was so strange!
After thinking for a while, Zuo Mo felt there was only one possibility left.
Pu Yaos sect was definitely a pitifully small sect.
Only the lowest and smallest sects would be so indiscriminating
Spat spat spat!
Zuo Mo found that he was now a part of the sect, and hurriedly stopped.
However, he had found the differences after such a contrast.
The gravestone had something like oaths to abide by and probably originated from a large sect
which was why it had so many rules. Pu Yaos sect was so loose and definitely was a small one.
Oh, if I learn the Archaic Wasteland Sacrificial Art, can I still cultivate the Great Day mo
physique?
Zuo Mo shamelessly asked.
Translator Ramblings: Zuo Mo, always asking for a mile when hes given an inch. Some things
have to do with talent but there are also complicating factors.
The five hundred little yao arts are little so in this case, it means they are elementary and for
beginners. They are not powerful enough to affect the world. In fact, it is probably going to be a
disappointment if you have the expectation that laws are hugely powerful and understanding
grants you a magical power or ability. Understanding something doesnt mean you have the

power to change or affect the world even if you understand how it works. So they are more
limited than what other stories depict.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Thirty Six Try
This chapter has been brought to you by me and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter Three Hundred and Thirty Six Try
Pu Yao stared at Zuo Mo without speaking.
Zuo Mo felt uncomfortable under the gaze and smiled weakly, It would be a pity to not cultivate
the Great Day mo physique!
After being stared at while, just as Zuo Mo thought Pu Yao was going to be angry, Pu Yao
suddenly spoke, I have to think about this.
Even though Pu Yao didnt immediately answer, Zuo Mo still saw hope. He hurriedly left the sea
of consciousness.
Once Zuo Mo left the sea of consciousness, large amounts of black mist came out of the
gravestone. Figures flitted across the surface of the stone.
Pu Yao seemed to not see them, and spoke to himself, Cultivate yao and mo together, this idea is
quite interesting.
The relationship between yao and mo was much closer than with xiuzhe, but the two of them had
never heard of a person cultivating yao and mo at the same time. Pu Yao was a knowledgeable
yao, and the Archaic Wasteland Sacrificial Art was a lost and great knowledge. But the Great
Day mo physique was also a high ranking mo physique. If Zuo Mo had not successful cultivated
it, Pu Yao definitely wouldnt rack his brains over the issue. But since Zuo Mo had successfully
cultivated the Great Day mo physique, it would really be a pity to throw it away.
Yao cultivation was the most free and liberal of all three cultivations. Education methods like the
yao art houses were much more liberal than the sect succession of the xiuzhe or the clan
succession of the mo.
Figures flashed across the gravestone.
You feel it is possible to try? Pu Yao raised an eyebrow in puzzlement.
He sank into thought. He had all kinds of anger and dissatisfaction with the gravestone, but being
the one to guard the gravestone for tens of thousands of years, the other was a significant factor.
The gravestone had many places that he felt were stupid, stubborn, and too conservative, but he
was familiar with the accomplishments and knowledge the gravestone had.
Pu Yao became unusually hesitant. Since Zuo Mo could comprehend the Divine Summoning Art
on his own, he was perfect for cultivating the Archaic Wasteland Sacrificial Art, and was the best
successor. If Zuo Mo focused on cultivating the Archaic Wasteland Sacrificial Art, there was a
high possibility that he could reach the stage of a Sky Yao. But if he cultivated the mo physique
and the yao art at the same time, it was hard to predict the outcome The journey of cultivating a
mo physique was the most dangerous of the three paths. His soul would be destroyed due to the
slightest carelessness.
The flashing shadow of a person on the surface of the gravestone silently waited for Pu Yaos
decision.

Pu Yao glanced at the gravestone out of the corner of his eyes. Its silence, and the events that
happened in the past flashed across his mind. His bloody pupil suddenly became deep, and an
imperceptible sorrow floated at the deepest part of his eye.
In a moment, his expression turned normal. He smiled mockingly and said, What? Afraid your
line of succession will end? Your set of stuff is so old its teeth is falling out, it should have been
thrown into the trash a long time ago!
Hmph! If he wants to cultivate, then cultivate. Im also slightly curious. Tsk tsk, yao art, mo
physique, spells, formations, what kind of weirdo will this boy cultivate to become?
A hint of insanity flashed across Pu Yaos bloody pupil.

In the camp, after Zuo Mo opened his eyes, everyones hearts finally landed. However, this
incident rang the alarm for everyone. This ghastly place was more dangerous than they had
imagined.
The people of Guard Camp worked even harder on their cultivation.
The black fiendish energy had benefits for them. The black fiendish energy inside the fiendish
mist was even denser, and harder to process. They had to carefully control the rate at which they
absorbed fiendish mist. Otherwise, the fiendish mist would corrode their minds and they would
gradually turn to fiend soul beasts.
However, this was a good place to cultivate [Hardship Guard]. All of them progressed quickly.
Another person cultivated and formed their weapon. This person was an unexpected surprise to
everyone. It was actually A Wen. After A Wen healed completely, he stayed with Guard Camp,
and started cultivating [Hardship Guard] with everyone else.
In Guard Camp, A Wen had spent the shortest time cultivating [Hardship Guard] but his
progression rate was amazing. When Zuo Mo was informed that A Wen had formed his weapon,
he also jumped in fright. This talent was too outrageous.
A Wens weapon was a spear. Its entire body was black without any light. A dark red tassel hung
below the head of the spear like a dark flame.
Once this black spear formed, A Wen hugged it and sank into meditation.
What also surprised Zuo Mo were the three hundred flower slaves. After these flower slaves
were rescued from Hundred Flower Alliance, Shu Long had been taking care of them as they
cultivated the [Flower Yao Mutual Existence Art]. This yao art was very wondrous. In a short
period of time, they regained their clarity of mind and managed to suppressed the ling flowers
planted on their bodies.
The flowers that Hundred Flower Alliance picked to grow on these flower slaves were all rare
and valuable ling flowers. These ling flowers were all fifth-grade, and by themselves were rare
ling objects that could automatically absorb the ling energy in the surroundings. However, this
place was thin in ling energy and was filled with black fiendish energy. The ling flowers on their
bodies had all turned to absorbing black fiendish energy instead.
It had to be said that everything in the world had their own abilities.
The brutal and dark black fiendish energy was not dark at all after being absorbed by the ling
flowers, and became warm and lively. They progressed quickly.
Compared to the Guard Camp being fishes in the water, the situation of Vermillion Bird Camp
was not too good. Even though Zuo Mo had given them the scrolls of [Fiend Ling] so they did

not have to fear black fiendish energy as much as before, they still needed to cultivate it to a
certain stage to regain their full combat abilities.
Among them, the sixteen seal xiu led by Gong Liang Wei were the worst off.
After they were captured in Little Mountain Jie, they had been put into Vermillion Bird Camp by
Gongsun Cha. However, due to their unique cultivating methods, their position in Vermillion
Bird Camp was very awkward.
At present, the combat tactic of Vermillion Bird Camp depended on speed and sharpness. This
was the tactic that sword xiu were most skilled in. What seal xiu were more skilled in was
support. Adding on that the spells they cultivated werent anything profound, the increases they
could provide were limited. To date, before they could act, the battle would be finished.
Even though Gongsun Cha Daren put importance on them, it could not change the fact that they
were in an awkward position.
Their cultivation was at the bottom of Vermillion Bird Camp, and the [Fiend Ling] had high
demands of cultivation. They found it even harder.
Why dont we ask Gongsun Cha Daren to move to Golden Crow Camp, one of the people said
with his head down.
Gong Liang Wei was silent. He was over his forties, his talent was average, but due to his
steadiness, he was the shixiong of this group of people. He also knew that Golden Crow Camp
was more appropriate for them at this time.
They were skilled in all kinds of seal, and one among them called Li Zhuo was able to make
second-grade seal soldiers. This was a great achievement for ningmai level seal xiu.
Seal xiu were skilled in all kinds of seals, were skilled in formations and making all kinds of
seals, and to attack through use of seals.
In a seal xius normal cultivation, they needed to use all kinds of formations and seals. This was
the point that they differed from other xiuzhe. This place was thin in ling power. The formations
that they needed for their cultivation could not perform fully, and their cultivation was not
enough that they could cultivate [Fiend Ling].
As they spoke, Zong Ru walked towards them.
Gong Liang Wei hurriedly stood and went up to welcome Zong Ru. Zong Ru was the leader of
the Shield Guard Platoon, and was responsible for Gongsun Darens safety. He had a high
position in Vermillion Bird Camp. Gong Liang Wei was skilled in interaction, and did not show
any of the trouble on his face. He said with a smile, It is rare for Zong Daren to come here, is
there something you wish to order?
Zong Ru smiled warmly and passed over several jade scrolls. Gongsun Daren has asked me to
deliver some things to everyone.
Gong Liang Wei took the jade scrolls with slight puzzlement. What is worth Daren personally
making a trip?
Everyone will know after reading.
After Zong Ru spoke, he raised his folded hands and left. Zong Rus cultivation deepened by the
day, and was increasingly warm and subdued like he was a normal person without any sharp
edges.
After Zong Ru left, everyone crowded over.
Gong Liang Weis consciousness swept the jade scroll, and his body uncontrollably tensed.
The jade scrolls on their hands were the jade scrolls Zuo Mo had sent to Golden Crow Camp.
The content on formations made everyones eyes lit up.


Gongsun Cha was immersed in playing war chess everyday. That mysterious person did not
appear so he studied by himself. Ever since he heard that battle generals had their cultivation
spells, his thoughts started to wander.
He was completely enchanted with the highly difficult profession of battle general.
Since he did not have the spells that battle generals cultivated, then why couldnt he explore by
himself?
Gongsun Chas personality was a bit insane to begin with, he was always filled with interest and
enthusiasm towards matters that normal people would find irrational. Creating battle general
spells, another person wouldnt even dare to think of it, but he had no fear.
However, in terms of knowledge of cultivation, he had a good grasp of his own limitations, but
he also had his own solution, war chess. The craftsmanship of these war chess games were
exquisitely detailed, and they closely mimicked to reality. The person that designed them
definitely was a great battle general. Of course, the possibility it was a yaomo general was great.
However, this difference wasnt major in Gongsun Chas view.
He tried to find hints and clues in the war chess games. He was curious how true battle generals
cultivated. He had been immersed in this highly difficult pursuit recently.
He had made discoveries.

Pu Yao who had been teaching Zuo Mo suddenly raised his head, shock flashing through his
bloody pupil.
Zuo Mo stilled, raised his head and asked, What is it?
Oh, nothing. Pu Yaos expression turned normal .He looked at Zuo Mo. You can continue to
practice the Great Day mo physique. The condition is that your yao art cultivation meets my
demands.
What demands? Zuo Mo weakly asked.
Pu Yao gave a teeth-baring smile. When I was in the yao art house, I had a nickname.
Nickname? Zuo Mo was dazed. What nickname?
They liked to call me the Encyclopedia Of Yao Arts. The faint voice came from Pu Yaos
shadowed face. A sharp smile flashed. As my successor, you need to maintain this great
tradition.
A bad feeling washed over Zuo Mos mind.
From today onwards, immerse yourself in the ocean of yao arts!
Pu Yaos arrogant voice threw Zuo Mo completely into hell.
There were many kinds of yao arts, and could not be counted. Just basic little yao arts had five
hundred kinds, so the true scale could be imagined.
Also, Pu Yao had no intentions of passing Archaic Wasteland Sacrificial Art onto Zuo Mo, and
started to explain things beginning with little yao arts. Zuo Mo found to his shock that the little
yao arts that he though he learned were more complicated and intricate than he had previously
imagined.
A completely different world started to reveal itself to him.
Pu Yao had never spoken of yao arts like this before. He was confident with each type of yao art,
free and high-flying.
The person and yao were immersed and completely forgot the flow of time.

After an unknown number of days, they were suddenly disturbed.


It was Golden Crow Camp!
Translator Ramblings: There might be some ambiguity which is probably deliberate but you guys
are really good at picking at the details so Im going to clarify about the gravestone. When Pu
Yao talks about the gravestone, it is usually as though the gravestone is a person which is
communicating back to him in this chapter. However, the gravestone is also an object and the
gravestone or he that Pu Yao refers to is not the gravestone as an object.
Poor Zuo Mo, you are a little lab rat. Pu Yao is crazy enough to risk gambling with his own life
on Zuo Mo being able to cultivate the three different methods at the same time since if Zuo Mo
dies, he will as well.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Thirty Seven Crimson
Fiend Cauldron
This chapter has been brought to you by me, and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter Three Hundred and Thirty Seven Crimson Fiend Cauldron
The center of the slave transporting boat had been completely transformed. The rooms on
multiple floors had been completely torn down. Right now, what stood in their place was a
double-handled red cauldron about five zhang tall. The crimson red cauldron appeared to have
been just taken from a strong fire. The shape was simple, but the presence was heavy. If one went
to closer, they would see that the body of the cauldron was covered in formation scripts written
in the size of ants. The complexity would make one faint.
If a xiuzhe skilled in forging saw this cauldron, they would be very shocked. Such small and
complex formation scripts could not be completed even if a jindan forging xiuzhe worked for
three to five years.
This enormous Crimson Fiend Cauldron was the effort by all of the people in Golden Crow
Camp.
The body of the cauldron was made from a mixture of fire element materials like Crimson Fire
Rock. The great majority were fourth-grade materials. The forging method to make the Crimson
Fire Cauldron was different than normal methods. After the plan had been confirmed, the large
cauldron had been divided into three hundred and twenty six pieces. There had been clear
discussion regarding the size of each piece and the seal scripts carved into them. Due to the fact
the sizes of the parts were relatively small after being dismembered, the forging difficulty was
much lower. Each piece was repeatedly forged, and each line on the seal scriptshad been
exquisitely planned.
In other words, the large cauldron was a puzzle that was pieced together. The entire assembly
process took seven whole days and nights, members of Golden Crow Camp forged without sleep
and rest to finish. After that, the entire camp used Golden Crow Fire to forge it for fourteen days
to melt it into one body.
Today, the large cauldron took form!
When every Golden Crow Camp member looked at this astounding large Crimson Fiend
Cauldron, their eyes were filled with head and pride!

Fifth-grade!
The grade of this large cauldron was fifth-grade!
When the masters announced this result, all of the camp cheered. Fifth-grade, that was enough
for every person of Golden Crow Camp to feel proud. Golden Crow Camp did not have one
jindan in its ranks, all of them were ningmai.
Only jindan xiuzhe, of at least the second stratum, had the ability to forging fifth-grade talismans.
But Golden Crow Camp that had no jindan at all did it!
However, the cheers only continued for a short period of time. Everyones expression turned
serious because an even more crucial step was arriving.
Black red fiendish mist flowed towards the slave transporting boat like a tide.
Inside the slave transporting boat, the mood was nervous, and the loud voices of the two masters
could be heard.
Pay attention and control the flow rate of the fiendish mist!
Maintain the Golden Crow Fire, keep it up!
The fiendish mist that was absorbed turned to a slender black-red flow and entered the large
cauldron. The Golden Crow Fire within the cauldron seemed to have had a bucket of oil poured
over it and grew.
Everyone uncontrollably stopped breathing.
The fine seal scripts on the Crimson Fiend Cauldron suddenly shot up with gold light. A vast ling
power wave filled every corner of the slave transporting boat. The formations on the boat lit up
at almost the same time.
Only now did the hearts of Golden Crow Camp members land. Cheers suddenly exploded.
Master Ji Weis face was covered in tears. Sun Bao was also very emotional, swallowing hard
and unable to speak. He felt it would be worth it even if he died now!
Before Wan Tian had been urging Wei Cheng Bin to get some black fiendish energy, he and Sun
Bao had already started to study the black fiendish energy.
The jade scroll that Zuo Mo had sent over had resolved many problems they could not overcome.
Even though they had done this through the combined effort of the entire camp, but being able to
forge such a cauldron when they were just ningmai was enough to make them famous throughout
the entire world.
It wasnt just the two masters. The people of Golden Crow Camp came from small sects, and
most were those that did not have great ambitions. Everyone was uncontrollably excited at being
able to complete such an amazing work. Many people couldnt stop themselves from crying.
When Zuo Mo rushed over, this was what he saw.
Then his gaze was securely attracted to this five zhang tall Crimson Fiend Cauldron, and was
dumbstruck.
You forged this? Zuo Mo pointed at the large cauldron and asked disbelievingly.
Sun Bao said respectfully and with pride, Yes, Daren!
Zuo Mo was shocked!
That was right, he was completely shocked!
He couldnt be called skilled in formations, but his understanding of formations was far above
everyone else. However, he was still amazed at the clever thinking behind the forging of the
Crimson Fiend Cauldron. The forging of the Crimson Fiend Cauldron used Golden Crow Fire,
and what Zuo Mo hadnt expected was that they actually put the Great Golden Crow Formation
onto this cauldron.

This way, the Golden Crow Fire inside the cauldron would be maintained for a long time and
could gather Golden Crow Fire from sunlight. In the future, there would be no need to worry
about the supply of Golden Crow Fire. As the amount of Golden Crow Fire inside the cauldron
increased, it was very likely that it could produce even higher grade flames.
In other words, the Crimson Fire Cauldron still had room to improve.
But this wasnt what shocked Zuo Mo the most. What gave him the greatest shock was the
Crimson Fiend Cauldron could process fiendish mist and turn it to ling power.
Wasnt wasnt this the method of [Fiend Ling]?
[Fiend Ling] could transform fiendish energy to ling power. Vermillion Bird Camp was furiously
cultivating this spell, but who could have expected that Golden Crow Camp would walk ahead of
them.
A pretty good talisman! Pu Yao couldnt help but praise.
The rich and lively ling power inside the slave transporting boat made a person feel comfortable.
In this place, black fiendish energy was in endless supply. With the Crimson Fiend Cauldron,
they did not need to worry about the problem of ling power at all. Their jingshi supply could also
provide ling power but there would be a day when it was all used up.
The members of Golden Crow Camp all floated in this direction. Darens shocked expression
made them feel very good.
Can you make a few more? Zuo Mo asked Sun Bao.
Sun Bao showed a difficult expression. It isnt hard to forge, but Im afraid we cannot find
suitable materials.
In order to forge the Crimson Fiend Cauldron, all the rare materials from Bao Yis stores had
been swept clean. If it wasnt that Sun Bao and Ji Wei had both personally gone to demand them
from Bao Yi, Bao Yi definitely would not have given the materials up.
Zuo Mo was slightly disappointed but he was not surprised. Low grade materials could not
endure such powerful ling power and the domineering Golden Crow Fire.
Im really greedy! Zuo Mo said mockingly. He then said to Sun Bao and Ji Wei, Good work!
In the future if you need any materials, go to Bao Yi to get them. If that bamboo stick wont give
them to you, come find me directly.
Sun Bao and Ji Wei were overjoy, Thanks, Daren!
To people that enjoyed forging, this promise made them happier than anything else.
Golden Crow Camp gave Zuo Mo a big surprise. With the Crimson Fire Cauldron, the pressure
placed on him instantly decreased. They could be at more ease while exploring this strange place.

Coming out of the slave transporting boat, Zuo Mo was in a very good mood. He looked around.
The camp was very busy. Everyone had not sunk into a depression but worked harder on their
cultivation. Seeing the situation, Zuo Mo started to cultivate himself. Becoming stronger was
better than anything else.
Pu Yao said that he had a nickname of the Encyclopaedia of Yao Arts. Zuo Mo felt that this
nickname was a bit of an exaggeration. It wasnt the first time this guy liked to boast, but this
guy really displayed his aptitude when he started to explain yao arts.
Five hundred types of little yao arts. After Pu Yao explained them to him again, Zuo Mo had a
completely different perspective.
However, Zuo Mo cared more about the Archaic Wasteland Sacrificial Art.

Pu, teach me another two moves of the Archaic Wasteland Sacrificial Art! Zuo Mo raised his
face and said fawningly.
Pu Yao replied absentmindedly, Oh, dont try to always get free benefits. Its a dream to think
that you can combine two little yao arts to get something powerful.
Then you can teach me some powerful yao arts?
You understand all of the little yao arts? Pu Yao glanced at him.
Pretty much. Zuo Mo had some confidence about this.
Really? Pu Yao had a slightly smile. Then lets test it.
Test? What test? Zuo Mo became alert.
Before he finished asking, the scene in the surroundings seemed to retreat like a wave, and turn
to a dark void.
This was Ten Finger Prison!
Damn it!
Zuo Mo didnt have the time to swear. His vision blurred and pushed the swear words at his
mouth back.
Your consciousness has become much stronger, and you should be able to stay for twelve hours
now, Pu Yao did not waste words and said crisply. Walk forward using the method I taught you
last time. I dont demand anything too highly of you. Twelve hours, walk thirty li forward. Ooh,
this demand is just one-tenth of mine when I first came here.
Finishing, Pu Yao did not allow Zuo Mo to speak and disappeared.
Vast Water Clear Skies, Zuo Mo had come last time and wasnt unfamiliar with this place.
According to Pu Yao, the entire Vast Water Clear Skies was constructed from thirteen thousand
low-level yao arts.
Hm, just thirty li, you think this will trouble ge?
Provoked by Pu Yaos disdainful tone, Zuo Mo did not procrastinate. He lowered his head and
started to deconstruct the yao art under his feet.
Every bit of soil, every piece of rock, every stalk of grass here was made from yao arts.
His consciousness made a close inspection. The yao arts here were completely different in Zuo
Mos eyes than the ones from last time. Last time, if it wasnt for Pu Yao guiding him
continuously, he couldnt have even advanced a single step. But right now, even facing low level
yao arts he had never seen before, he could think of solutions.
It was a great help to him that his consciousness was stronger than in the past. No wonder they
said that the consciousness was the basis of yao arts. Comparing the two visits, Zuo Mo gave a
direct and deeply engraining experience. The yao arts borrowed all kinds of powers from within
the world. The consciousness was like a level that leverage the power of the world.
The first yao art did not take Zuo Mo long before he deconstructed it.
Walking one step by one step, deconstructing one yao art by one yao art.
This feeling was somewhat familiar
Zuo Mo suddenly remembered why he found it familiar. In Wu Kong Mountain, he had also
studied the questions of the [Preliminary Formations] jade scroll from Kun Lun. The feeling now
was slightly similar.
This was a little bit interesting!
Zuo Mo did not find it dull, but found it interesting.
He gradually found some patterns, and his speed became faster. These low level yao arts had
many transformations and he did not recognize the great majority of them. However, he found
that if he used the right method, they were all able to be deconstructed using little yao arts.

Immersed in deconstructing yao arts, he did not notice the scenery behind him that he just
deconstructed was changing.
Even more so, he did not notice a pair of eyes staring at him from nearby.
Translator Ramblings: Golden Crow Camp is a think tank coming up with new ideas. Zuo Mos
very lucky that Sun Bao and Ji Wei are smart and dedicated to him. Otherwise, he will be having
a much harder time.
Pu Yao got tired of negotiating and not getting anything paid. So the brute force move is now
used.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Thirty Eight Nan Yue
This chapter has been brought to you by me, and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter Three Hundred and Thirty Eight Nan Yue
Nan Yue looked with curiosity at the male in front of her.
To be able to enter Vast Water Clear Skies in the first year of entering a yao art house, she had
some fame in the art house, even though the yao art house that she belonged to was not a famed
one. Even though she was very young, she was very experienced in Vast Water Clear Skies.
Last time, she had accidentally found there was a place that showed major marks of damage and
instantly took note. Only today when she saw this unfamiliar male did she instantly realize she
found the culprit.
She did not go up to warn him. She had stayed for a long time in Vast Water Clear Skies, and
naturally had no problems with basic knowledge. The Ten Finger Prison was completely
constructed from yao arts. It included almost all the yao arts. Due to this, it also became the place
the yao learned yao arts. She had once learned three relatively powerful yao arts from Vast Water
Clear Skies, and many places in Vast Water Clear Skies that were filled with danger were good
places to gain experience.
Nan Yue had encountered incidents of destruction before, but that was mostly when some yao
that destroyed the area after finding a good yao art to prevent it from landing in another persons
hands. This kind of destruction had no effect on Vast Water Clear Skies. Vast Water Clear Skies
was completely constructed from yao arts. Any grass or art that was destroyed would be
recreated. It was always kept at an equilibrium.
Ten Finger Prison had existed for many years, and countless Sky Yao had come through, but
nothing had ever happened to Ten Finger Prison.
What Nan Yue found curious was that the others strange actions looked more like a kind of
cultivation method.
But what effect would it have?
She sank into thought. It was not hard to destroy the grasses and plants of Vast Water Clear
Skies. They were constructed out of yao arts, and other than some rare defensive yao arts, they
were usually easily destroyed.
Was this person a destructive maniac?
She laughed. These days, there were all kinds of strange yao. There were some weird yao in her
yao art house. Supposedly, there were even more of these people at famed yao arts houses.
She really had too much free time that she would spend it on such a boring matter.

Was it that she had good results in the recent tests that caused her to be slightly proud? She
couldnt help but feel ashamed. She instantly warned herself to not be proud.
Just as she was going to leave, she suddenly saw the process of the rock collapsing in front of the
unfamiliar male. Her heart shook and paused mid step.
Just now, that rock had turned to powder without any warning and disappeared into the air.
This was this was
Nan Yues mouth was opened wide, her face written with disbelief as she looked dazedly at Zuo
Mo.
Without any sound, another entire piece of rock collapsed at the exact same moment to the
smallest bits of powder that dissipated into the air. After three whole breaths, Nan Yue finally
reacted, and couldnt help but yell, Deconstruction!
When the words came out, she frightened herself. She hurriedly covered her mouth in fear of
alarming the other.
However, the other fortunately had not been disturbed and was still in a trance.
After observing for a long time, Nan Yue was certain the other was deconstructing these yao arts,
and was not destroying them. If he used brute force to destroy these rocks made from yao arts,
the rock will just turn to a ball of light and then disappear.
Deconstruction and destruction were two completely different concepts. Destruction was to
damage from the outside, and deconstruction was to dismember from the inside, and cause it to
be destroyed.
The difficulty of deconstruction was far higher than destruction. It required a deep understanding
of yao arts. Vast Water Clear Skies was only the first prison of Ten Finger Prison and there were
only low-level yao arts here, but the yao arts here were innumerable. How could one be familiar
with all of them?
The more Nan Yue saw, the more shocked she was. The speed the other deconstructed at made
her heart beat wildly.
The ever-changing yao arts did not seem to be an obstacle to this male. His movements flowed
without hurry. Everywhere he passed, the plants and grasses turned to dust and disappeared from
beside his feet.
He did not look, and he did not stop in his steps.
Nan Yue was dazed as she watched.
At the beginning, she had doubted if her guess had been accurate. Even those high level students
in the yao art house wouldnt be so smooth and quick.
This was a daren!
Daren was the general term for those powerful and profound yao.
Maybe this great yao was trying a certain yao art? Or he was trying to comprehending some
secret technique?
This was the only possibility that she was able to think of. Vast Water Clear Skies was the first
level of Ten Finger Prison. Most of those who came here were little yao that had just entered the
yao art houses. There were only low level yao arts here, and were not of help to those powerful
yao.
But the strength shown by this person far surpassed them.
Nan Yue quickly realized this was a rare chance. She instantly thought rapidly how she could go
up and initiate a conversation. In the yao art houses, everyone like to call situations like this wild
wondrous encounters.

The yao arts houses publicly passed on many yao arts but these were the basic yao arts of each
yao art level. As to the skills of each teacher, those were secret. Using the Purple Lotus Yao Art
House that Nan Yue belonged to as the example, they took in two thousand students annually.
After five to seven years of education, they would graduate with results based on each persons
consciousness and skill in the yao arts.
In these five to seven years, those little yao that studied hard and were talented might receive the
favor of a certain teacher and become their student. Only these students had the possibility of
receiving their line of succession. The teachers had the freedom to choose their students.
Normally, the teachers only had to teach basic yao arts to all the students .
The best way to learn more profound yao arts was to become the personal student of a teacher.
However, the competition inside the yao art house was very fierce. Every teacher was being
targeted by countless students that wanted to enter their doors. Nan Yues talent was not high.
The reason she had the achieved grades she did was due to her hard work. The teachers of the
schools were perceptive. How could they not see this? Right now, the teachers all hoped to pick
students with talent. Students like her only had the tiniest of chances.
Maybe this Daren was an opportunity!
At this time, she had to be shameless!
Nan Yue thought of the stories and experiences that her elder classmates had passed onto her.
Gritting her teeth, she went next to Zuo Mo.
However, she did not speak, but silently stood and did not make a sound.

Zuo Mo felt a thread of exhaustion. He stopped because he found that when he was tired due to
manipulating his consciousness, his rate of deconstruction would quickly decrease. He turned his
head back to look at the path he had just walked. In one hour, he had advanced about two li.
Based on this rate, he would only make twenty four li in twelve hours. There was quite a distance
to the thirty li that Pu Yao set down. But Zuo Mo was not in a hurry, and took the time of rest to
recall the experiences.
As the number of yao arts he deconstructed increased, his speed moving forward had increased.
He could clearly feel that the time he spent on the last li was much shorter than the time he spent
on the first li. Even though each type of yao art was different, he still understood and gradually
became accustomed to the process.
These yao arts changed greatly, but they did not leave the area of little yao arts.
Thinking back to when Pu Yao had spoke of the little yao arts to him, he suddenly understood.
These yao arts were just constructions made up of different combinations of little yao arts. He
instantly understood Pu Yaos intentions. Pu Yao wanted to use this method to give him a deeper
understanding of little yao arts.
Thinking about what he had felt just now, Zuo Mo instantly became excited because he felt this
was an effective method.
Pu Yao wasnt useless after all!
After criticizing Pu Yao out of habit, Zuo Mo decided to rest and recover his spiritual power.
When he raised his head, a stammering and nervous voice suddenly sounded in his ear, El
Elder
Elder?

Zuo Mo stilled and found Nan Yue standing nearby. However, his first response was to look
around. When he found that no one was standing next to him, he finally realized this little girl
was calling him.
He rubbed his head and watched as the other was in a trance. This term was slightly weird, and
he didnt know them. Oh, the other was a yao
Wait, yao?
Zuo Mo stilled again and curiously examined the other. This yao looked very normal, and didnt
have any of Pu Yaos presence. Oh, compared to the yao soldiers that he encountered at Desolate
Wood Reef, she seemed much weaker.
An interested expression came onto his face. This little yao should be the most normal little yao.
Truthfully, he had never seen a normal little yao before!
So normal yao looked like this
Nan Yue had faint green hair, her eyes were also faint green like a transparent olive stone. Her
chin was slightly pointed and didnt look any different from any other person. She was dressed in
a short robe and looked very capable.

Nan Yue felt uncomfortable under Zuo Mos gaze. She couldnt help but panic inside. Was this
daren a perverted yao?
Yao were very liberal about sexual matters. Most yao came from flora, and the process took a
long number of years. The combinations between yao would strengthen the clan. The Council of
Elders encouraged reproduction. Adding on that yao were born with long life spans, they were
very uncaring regarding the matters of sex.
If it was a female yao that had some experience, they would have instantly shown a seductive
posture immediately.
But Nan Yue clearly could not do it.

Compared to Nan Yues caution and discomfort, Zuo Mo was much more casual. He was young,
but he had seen much. Right now, he even had a large group of people under his command. If he
was still in Sky Moon Jie, he definitely qualified as a warlord. Additionally, he purely thought of
this event as broadening his visions.
The yao world didnt have a jingshi of a connection to him.
What are you called? Zuo Mo asked curiously.
Nan Yue, The slightly nervous Nan Yue instantly replied.
Oh, what kind of yao are you? Zuo Mo asked. He had a pitiful understanding of yao.

The way that this daren asked questions was really very strange.
Nan Yues nervousness disappeared greatly. Is Elder asking about Nan Yues birth? Nan Yue
comes from the Wisteria Clan of the South Sky.
Wisteria Clan of the South Sky? Zuo Mo was confused. He could understand the individual
words, but he did not understand what they referred to when put together.

Wisteria Clan of the South Sky!


With a light sound of surprise, Pu Yao suddenly popped up.
Translator Ramblings: Zuo Mos so curious. Its not like hes never seen a yao before. This is the
second person to think that Zuo Mo is a pervert on first impression but shes got the wrong
plotline. Zuo Mo only wants a harem of jingshi.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Thirty Nine Origin?
This chapter has been brought to you by me, and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter Three Hundred and Thirty Nine Origin?
Hearing Pu Yaos voice, Zuo Mo instantly realized that this Wisteria Clan of the South Sky had
some significance.
Before he could ask, he heard Pu Yao say to him, Ask her if it is the Wisteria Clan of the South
Sky at Purple Arrow Jie?
Zuo Mo could only listen and ask, Is it the Wisteria Clan of the South Sky at Purple Arrow Jie?
Nan Yue was very shocked. Does Elder also know the Wisteria Clan of the South Sky at Purple
Arrow Jie? Her expression then dimmed. We migrated from Purple Arrow Jie to Core Wind
Jie six hundred years ago.
Pu Yao did not make a sound for a while.
Zuo Mo was slightly surprised. It seemed that Pu Yao really knew this Wisteria Clan of the South
Sky.
After a while, Pu Yao said to Zuo Mo, Ask her how many people remain of the Wisteria Clan of
the South Sky.
Zuo Mo obediently spoke.
Nan Yues expression became even dimmer. There is only eleven people left in the clan now.
Eleven people Pu Yao was dumbstruck.
As the situation of the clan was spoken of, Nan Yue felt very bad. The Wisteria Clan of the South
Sky had been in decline for a long time. She had no memories of the glory they held in the past.
Ever since she could remember, the clans living conditions had been very harsh.
She hadnt thought that this elder would know the Wisteria Clan of the South Sky. She was quite
shocked. There were not many teachers in the school that knew of the Wisteria Clan of the South
Sky.
Do you practice the [South Sky Arrow Art] of the Wisteria Clan of the South Sky?
The elders question made her pause, but she shook her head. [South Sky Arrow Art] was lost a
thousand years ago.
Zuo Mo could clearly feel these words made Pu Yao shake.
Nan Yue was also very shocked. The elder was very familiar with the Wisteria Clan of the South
Sky. If it wasnt that she liked learning and had worked hard, she wouldnt know much of the
clan history. If it was her other sibling of the clan, they probably wouldnt even know what
[South Sky Arrow Art] was.
Did this elder have a history with the clan?
Hope suddenly rose in her heart.
Even though Elder looked very young, but Nan Yue would not underestimate him for that. The
age of yao had nothing to do with their appearances. The smooth deconstruction that Elder had
performed just now had amazed her.

As her thoughts grew, her mood became unconfident.


What made her feel even more insecure was that Elder was silent for a long time and did not
speak.
Her heart continued to sink. It seemed there was no hope.
Suddenly, Elders voice came. I will pass [South Sky Arrow Art] on to you. In return you will
follow me for a hundred years and will be free after that.
Nan Yue seemed to have been struck by lightning. Her mind was blank. [South Sky Arrow Art]!
Elder knew [South Sky Arrow Art]? Her face was filled with disbelief. The records of the clan
said that [South Sky Arrow Art] was the most powerful yao art treasure of the Wisteria Clan of
the South Sky, and the ultimate skill of the clan! But the records of the clan also did not leave
any mention behind except how powerful [South Sky Arrow Art] was. She had even doubted the
validity of these records and if they had been exaggerated.
[South Sky Arrow Art] so this world really had [South Sky Arrow Art]
Just as Nan Yues emotions changed, Zuo Mo pursued Pu Yao and continued to urge Pu Yao in a
suspicious tone, Pu, you really know that [South Sky Arrow Art? You really know? Dont fool
little kids! If you dont know, and you cant follow through with the lie, it will be embarrassing

Pu Yao who had been immersed in his emotions instantly felt conflicting emotions. Nonsense,
of course I know.
You sure? The suspicion on Zuo Mos face did not decrease. How come I never heard you say
so?
Theres a lot you never heard of, Pu Yao rolled his eyes and said in a negative tone.
Ooh, right. A gentleman is open, the little person hides his schemes. You are usually hidden
very deeply. Zuo Mo nodded his head, and then snickered. He raised his face and said, Then
lets add another century. We cannot be unprofitable!
Pu Yao looked dumbly at Zuo Mo. At this moment, he lost the ability to talk.
Zuo Mo had no hint of shame. He was very smug. Pu, as a yao, ge isnt as good as you, but in
business, you are far less than ge!
After a beat, Nan Yue refocused. She did not hesitate in kneeling on the ground. Teacher!
Yao usually had long lives, and a century was not a long time for them. Also, the conditions were
really too good. In Nan Yues view, this elder definitely had a deep history with the clan so he
would use this method to help her.
In the sea of consciousness, Zuo Mo sighed at Pu Yao, Its over, cant increase the price.
Nan Yue knelt on the ground motionlessly.
After a while, she heard Elder say gravely, Stand up. I do not have the qualifications to accept
students and cannot be your teacher. This is a transaction to pass on [South Sky Arrow Art] to
you. You can call me daren in the future.
Zuo Mo pretended.
Nan Yue was slightly disappointed. Daren was still unwilling to take her as his student. It must
be that Daren was very rigorous in accepting students, and she did not meet his requirements.
She secretly made a resolution to cultivate and work hard to satisfy Daren as early as possible to
be accepted. Also, Daren had promised to pass [South Sky Arrow Art] onto her. This yao art
which had been lost for so long, was it as powerful as the records said?
She was full of anticipation!
What to do next? Zuo Mo spread his hands and asked Pu Yao.
Pu Yao said seriously, You will first teach her little yao arts.

Zuo Mo stilled and then stammered as he pointed at his nose, Me teaching?


Is there a problem? Pu Yao tilted his head to look at Zuo Mo.
Zuo Mo forced a smile and said, You are really too irresponsible to that little girl. He was
slightly unconfident. He wasnt afraid at all about explaining spells or formations, but yao arts

The other was a true yao. He was a xiuzhe teaching a true yao how to cultivate yao arts it
was too ridiculous!
Just teach whatever, Pu Yao said irresponsibly and then disappeared.
Zuo Mo stood dumbly in the empty sea of consciousness.
Coming out of the sea of consciousness, Zuo Mo looked at Nan Yue who had an yearning
expression on her face and instantly had a headache. A beat later, he emboldened his heart. Since
Pu Yao said to teach her whatever, if he didnt teach her well, it couldnt be blamed on him.
He coughed lightly. Lets first start from little yao arts.
Little yao arts? Nan Yue stilled. She hadnt thought what Daren would teach first were little
yao arts.
Didnt every yao know little yao arts?
Zuo Mo ignored Nan Yues puzzled gaze and started to talk to himself. Luckily, Pu Yao had just
taught him little yao arts recently and he remembered them clearly. He thought back as he talked.
As he talked, he couldnt help but add in some of his understandings that he had just gotten
through deconstruction.
At the beginning, Nan Yues expression was filled with puzzlement and curiosity. But her
expression gradually became stern and focused.
The little yao arts that Daren talked about were different in many places than what she
understood!
Those little yao arts that seemed so simple in her view actually contained a very abundant
number of permutations. She had never thought the permutations of little yao arts could be so
plentiful and complex. There were such deep connections between different little yao arts
For the first time, the little yao arts were so profound in her eyes!
A bottomless, and borderless ocean appeared in front of her.
Zuo Mo finally stopped talking. He released a breath. His talk was not as detailed as Pu Yao but
there was nothing incorrect about the main concepts.
Seeing that Nan Yue had fallen for his con, he was slightly reassured. But after the talk, what to
do next? His mind shifted, and he instantly thought of a good idea. He pointed at the flowers and
grasses and said pretentiously, From today onwards, you will start to learn how to deconstruct
the yao arts of Vast Water Clear Skies. There are thirteen thousand yao arts in Vast Water Clear
Skies. If you can deconstruct all of them, your understanding of little yao arts has just begun.
Zuo Mo felt he was like a conman at this time, especially when he saw Nan Yues gaze filled
with respect. He felt even guiltier. He immediately got Nan Yue to start learning how to
deconstruct yao arts.
At this time, Nan Yue realized why Daren had been deconstructing little yao arts all this time!
She happily started to learn from Zuo Mo about deconstructing little yao arts. Seeing the
situation, Zuo Mo instantly relaxed and started his deconstruction again.
The person and yao buried their heads and started to make damage.
After two hours, Nan Yue took a break. When she raised her head, she was very shocked. Daren
was one and a half li in front of her!
The shock in Nan Yues eyes faded and was replaced by awe and respect.

As expected of Daren!
She definitely had to work harder to reach Darens qualifications for taking students!
Nan Yue balled her fists and made a decision.

Ma Fan did not cultivate [Fiend Ling]. He was the only xiuzhe of Vermillion Bird Camp that did
not cultivate [Fiend Ling]. Even Xie Shan had taken [Fiend Ling] to study.
Ma Fan was studying [Clear Sky Sword Scripture].
This fifth-grade sword scripture was the sect-establishing ultimate skill of Clear Sky Sect. Zuo
Mo did not have much interest in sword scriptures, and after experiencing so much together,
everyone had deeper bonds, so Zuo Mo made this public for everyone to study.
However, [Clear Sky Sword Scripture] was profound and hard to understand. Many places were
unclear, and those that were just the slightest bit lacking had no ability to understand it. All those
of Vermillion Bird Camp that cultivated the sword desired this sword scripture, but there were
only a few that could persist in studying it.
Ma Fan was one of them.
The sword scripture he cultivated had no name, and was incomplete. Other than the power of
[Illusory Shadowless Sword of Destruction], the other moves were scattered sword moves that he
had gathered from other sword scriptures.
For other people, [Clear Sky Sword Scripture] was too difficult, but for him, it was a treasure. He
was one of the first to comprehend sword essence. The stage of his sword essence rivalled Xie
Shan after he broke through to jindan.
He was used to taking the best parts from other sword scriptures to use for himself. His sword
moves were gathered from a scattering of scriptures, but this allowed him to quickly adjust to
using a brand new sword scripture.
The destruction caused by Clear Sky Old Forefather while using the [Clear Sky Sword Scripture]
frequently crossed his mind, and reinforced his decision to cultivate this sword scripture.
As he comprehended more of the scripture, many places he did not understand instantly flowed.
Everyone only saw him in meditation daily. No one knew that his understanding of sword
essence increased every day.
The silently sitting Ma Fan suddenly opened his eyes. His eyes lit up, and his presence suddenly
changed!
Translator Ramblings: Zuo Mo, the swindler of young and innocent yao. Teaching someone
when hes just started out himself A little bit of Pu Yaos history is now revealed.
Day 2 of another road trip. Ill have enough internet to read your comments but Im not sure if I
want to log in on an open wifi network to respond and do other stuff.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Forty Going Fishing
This chapter has been brought to you by me, and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter Three Hundred and Forty Going Fishing
Even sitting cross-legged on the ground, Ma Fan was like an unsheathed sword exuding sword
essence!
He didnt seem to move but disappeared.

Xie Shan who was cultivating [Fiend Ling] sudden felt his heart move and stopped to look at the
sky. At the same time, Shu Long also raised his head to look at the sky with a shocked
expression.
In the air, Ma Fan silently stood in the fiendish mist.
The poisonous fiendish mist was being repelled by an invisible force, and unable to go with in
seven chi of Ma Fans body. Ma Fans clothes flapped, but what was strange was that while he
looked to be of great presence, people only felt the faintest ling power vibrations from him.
Sword essence Xie Shans eyes suddenly widened and lit up. His expression changed
slightly.
Ma Fans arms were spread out like a great bird in flight. The fiendish mist seemed to retreat in
fear. In the blink of an eye, there was nothing within thirty zhang of him.
Such a presence made the people of Vermillion Bird Camp below full of admiration. Boss Ma
Fan was really Boss Ma Fan! Vermillion Bird Camp was primarily sword xiu. Everyones
cultivation was not high, but their eyes were not lacking. They understood that Boss Ma Fan had
gained a new comprehension of sword essence.
The one that saw the most clearly was Xie Shan.
The reason the fiendish mist would retreat was because that there were countless invisible and
ethereal sword essences in Ma Fans surrounding space! These sword essences were silently
moving as though they were nurturing something.
Xie Shan seemed to be suddenly struck by lightning. His mouth was wide and his eyes full of
disbelief as he looked at the stern Ma Fan.
Manifestation!
Sword essence manifestation!
Impossible!
Wasnt sword essence manifestation a stage that only jindan xiuzhe could reach? He found it
hard to accept what was happening in front of him. A beat later, the dumbstruck Xie Shan
gradually regained focus. The taste in his mouth was bitter. He was a xiuzhe in jindan who hadnt
cultivated to sword essence manifestation, but Ma Fan who was a ningmai comprehended it first.
Ma Fans entire body was covered in uncountable sword essences, these fine, transparent and
intangible Sky sword essences.
Sky Sky
Ma Fan tightly closed his eyes and seemed to understand something.
A vast and greatly vicious presence gathered from all directions. Ma Fan seemed like a leaf boat
floating precariously in the storm and rain, to be destroyed at the next moment!
This was
Xie Shan instantly understood. Ma Fan was cultivating [Clear Sky Sword Scripture]! He
instantly furrowed his brows and had a worried expression. Looking at the crimson tinged sky,
the uncertainty in his heart increased.
The sky here it wasnt a good place to cultivate [Clear Sky Sword Scripture]!
The crimson red sky became even more terrifying. Black clouds rapidly formed.
At the center of the storm, the environment Ma Fan faced was even worse. When he realized that
there was a problem, he already had no avenue of retreat. The sky here was filled with black
fiendish energy. They originated from the ferocious battle of ten thousand years ago, and after
thousands of years, they could easily corrode ones mind.
The sky here had too many elements that did not belong to the sky!

The fiendish mist that had been trying to avoid him just now suddenly roiled fiercely. Dozens of
tentacles made from the fiendish mist leapt at Ma Fan and seal him off in all directions. These
fiendish mist tentacles were quick like arrows that pierced towards Ma Fan. Just as Ma Fan was
going to be entangled and taken away, pia pia pia, the fiendish mist tentacles that approached Ma
Fan exploded.
These tentacles were destroyed by the sword essence around Ma Fan.
But this was just the beginning!
Countless red-black fiendish mist tentacles rose from the fiendish mist and leapt at Ma Fan.
Explosions continued. There was too much fiendish mist that had exploded. A while later, they
formed a thick fiendish mist. The sound of explosions did not stop among the fiendish mist. A
red-black egg-shaped fiendish mist ball hung high in the sky.
Everyone couldnt help but have worried expressions, but they could only look. They could not
help at all.

Vast Water Clear Skies.


Nan Yue looked at Elder who had collapsed onto the ground. Her eyes were filled with respect.
She had worked very hard in the yao art houses, but when she saw how Elder cultivated, she
instantly felt her hard work was nothing in front of Elder.
I will come back after some time.
Elder threw out these words and disappeared.
Nan Yue was not too puzzled. At this time, she was filled with motivation. Elder had used his
actions to explain to her how to cultivate. She wasnt in such a hurry to get [South Sky Arrow
Art] now. The things she learned today were enough for her to cultivate for a long time.
She left Vast Water Clear Skies. She needed to digest what she had learned today.

Zuo Mo felt very good, very very good.


He only took ten hours to go thirty li, two hours shorter than Pu Yaos demand. If he subtracted
the time that he had spent explaining little yao arts to Nan Yue, he only took nine hours. When
Zuo Mo caught the shock and surprise in Pu Yaos eye, he felt very good.
In reality, his spiritual power had almost been exhausted. After nine hours of high speed
deconstruction, his response this time was much stronger than the first time around.
Unable to slowly savor his pleasure, he hurried into meditation to recover his spiritual power.
After a whole day, Zuo Mo finally woke up from his meditation. His spiritual power had only
half recovered. It was a pity there were no stars in the sky here so he could not absorb the power
of the skies. His consciousness had exploded in growth from last time. The number of stars in the
void above his sea of consciousness had not grown, but each star became even brighter and
sparkled in the void.
Zuo Mos sea of consciousness had completely changed.
The ice sword river from the past had almost completely disappeared. This made Zuo Mo sweat.
Those enchanting black flames had no longer rampaged like they had in the past. The black
flames had almost disappeared in the area around the gravestone, and shown the black steel-like
ground. The black energy that shrouded the gravestone seemed thicker than before.
According to Pu Yao, the path he walked was star spiritual cultivation. The star spiritual sand in
his consciousness contained star power.

Zuo Mo didnt feel anything like star power. However, the ten stars had grown, and his spiritual
power recovery rate was stronger than before. Each star spread its light, and the sea of
consciousness was bathed in star light.
When Zuo Mo saw the enormous fiendish mist ball in the air, he was astounded. He hurriedly
grabbed Xie Shan to ask. When he was informed that Ma Fan was cultivating [Clear Sky Sword
Scripture], he couldnt help but worry. However, he did not have a solution. Of everything he
cultivated, his sword scriptures were the weakest at this moment.
Right now, the strongest was his Great Day mo physique. The next was his yao arts. He couldnt
help but grimace. As one that originated as a xiuzhe, there wasnt really much to be proud off.
Ma Fans matter wouldnt end anytime soon so Zuo Mo did not go to observe.
He turned around his face and found to his shock that A Gui was looking at him. Usually, A Gui
was always steps away from him.
Are you better? Zuo Mo probed.
A Gui did not respond. Zuo Mo shook his head. He really was fantasizing. He grabbed A Guis
hand and his consciousness went into her body to make a close inspection.
His brow quickly furrowed together.
A Guis body was a mess, so withered there was no life. From this point, it didnt seem any
different than usual, but Zuo Mo found there was an extremely small patch of purple on A Guis
heart which had not been there before. Zuo Mo would examine A Gui every two or three days,
and was very familiar with the condition of A Guis body.
There was no purple mark in his last inspection. It was possible to see that the purple mark had
formed in the last few days.
Zuo Mos body suddenly dropped down. This meant that new changes had happened in the last
few days to A Guis body. He couldnt help but become worried. If it was a good change, then
that naturally was very fortunate. But if it was a bad change, he did not have a measure to deal
with it.
Zuo Mo suddenly felt a strong sense of urgency.
He had to find Water Cloud Embryo as soon as possible! But he also knew if he rashly went into
the depths of the fiendish mist, his bones wouldnt even remain. Everyone was working hard at
this moment, and this was not the best time to enter the fiendish mist.
Zuo Mos heart suddenly became restless. He walked out of the campsite.
The campsite was at the border of the fiendish mist. It was possible to see threads of thin fiendish
mist float by. His eyes turned to the deeper parts of the fiendish mist. What would it be like in
there?
You can fish! Pu Yao suddenly said.
Fish? Zuo Mo asked with shock.
Oh, you can take an intelligent talisman, and it will naturally attract many fiend souls, Pu yao
explained. You can practice your little yao arts, and also,
Also what?
Do you remember the soul base essence you swallowed? If you want to strengthen your
consciousness in the short them, this isnt a bad method. Then Pu Yao sighed. You have pretty
good luck!
Zuo Mo instantly became alert. In his view, fiend souls were food. The main reason that he
wanted to learn Archaic Desolate Sacrificial Art was to get fiend souls to strengthen his
consciousness. With his present strength, entering the deeper parts of the fiend mist was too
dangerous.

As expected, Pu Yao was cunning!


Zuo Mo thought and took out a talisman. This was the only sixth-grade talisman that he had, the
Nine Turn Sky Earth Disk. He didnt dare to use Lil Paogda as the bait. The trouble last time
was too much. There was a thread of intelligence on the Nine Turn Sky Earth Disk. Even though
it wasnt as intelligent as Lil pagoda, it was perfect as bait.
The Nine Turn Sky Earth Disk that could make many jealous was thrown onto the ground. Zuo
Mo stood nearby and widened his eyes.
A short while later, a red light suddenly charged out of the fiendish mist and headed straight for
the Nine Turn Sky Earth Disk on the ground.
Zuo Mo snickered. The little yao art that had already been prepped on his hand was thrown out.
Hiss-crack!
The little yao art was not powerful, but yao arts could subdue fiend souls to start with. This fiend
soul didnt even get the time to shriek before it was destroyed. Zuo Mo casually opened his
mouth and sucked it in. That thin strand of base source entered his mouth.
Fiend souls continued to come over.
Zuo Mo quickly found that little yao arts were perfect for dealing with fiend souls. Right now, he
was very familiar with little yao arts, and didnt even need to think before he could successfully
cast.
What he actually needed to be careful of was that the soul base sources did not slip away. He felt
it even more clearly this time. The soul base sources absorbed into his body all entered the stars
in the void of his sea of consciousness.
Compared to last time, there was a much less number of fiend souls. Zuo Mo was very
unburdened.
Shixiong, what are you doing? At some unknown time, Gongsun Cha had come over and asked
curiously.
Zuo Mos hand shook. Several strands of soul base source drifted towards Gongsun Cha.
Translator Ramblings: Day three of roadtrip. I might have secure internet but it doesnt matter.
Zuo Mo is a terrible xiuzhe, dishonour! Dishonour on you! Dishonour on your sect!

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Forty One Shidis Spell
This chapter has been brought to you by me, and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter Three Hundred and Forty One Shidis Spell
The threads of soul base source was very faint as though they would dissipate in the air at any
moment.
What is this? Gongsun Cha had a curious expression. He opened his hand and the threads of
soul base source flew towards his palm.
The soul base source flew into his palm. Before he could study it, they entered his skin.
Three shocked exclamations sounded out. The curiosity on Gongsun Chas face turned to
surprise. Zuo Mo was also very surprised, and the last sound of shock came from Pu Yao inside
Zuo Mos sea of consciousness.
Gongsun Cha closed his eyes and savored it for a while. After a moment, he suddenly opened his
eyes and said joyfully, Shixiong, what is this? This is really good!

Of course it was really good


Zuo Mo muttered inside but he was also happy. He could see that the soul base source of the
fiend souls were of great benefit to Gongsun Cha!
His mind suddenly moved and he asked, Shidi, what spell are you cultivating right now?
Gongsun Chas face blushed shyly. He said embarrassedly, I . I just randomly made a way
to cultivate. I dont know if it is useful. I was just thinking of asking Shixiong to help.
Zuo Mo looked with shock at the shy Gongsun Shidi like he was seeing a ghost.
Seeing Zuo Mos expression, Gongsun Chas pale face became even redder like a mature peach.
I I heard that battle generals have specialized cultivation spells. Since I didnt have any, I
thought about making something close to it.
His words became smoother as he spoke, and his eyes flashed with excitement. I found later
that there are many battle generals in the war chess games. Even though they are yaomo battle
generals, but I could use them as references. So I got some stuff. Shixiong, help me take a look.
He ignored Zuo Mos strange expression and spoke of his idea.
At the beginning, Zuo Mo was unconcerned. If it wasnt Gongsun Shidi, and it was any other
zhuji xiuzhe that ran to him and said they were going to create their own cultivation spell, Zuo
Mo would definitely put his feet on their face.
Zuo Mos expression slowly became grave.
It was very clear that Gongsun Shidis idea was much more developed than he had predicted.
When he finished listening, the first thought he had was
it was too crazy!
He looked dazedly at Gongsun Cha.
Gongsun Cha finished speaking in one go and finally noticed the strangeness in Zuo Mos gaze.
He instantly felt uncomfortable. Had his thinking been incorrect somewhere?
This shy and bashful shidi in front of him had created such an insane and extreme cultivation
spell. The contrast was too big!
Zuo Mo felt it was very strange.
Gongsun Chas idea was very simple. First, he concluded what was most important to a battle
general was the consciousness because the consciousness was of the greatest help to controlling
the battle situation. This was also why yao battle generals were the most outstanding of all battle
generals.
Of course, ling power was necessary. Xiuzhe battle generals had their own unique qualities.
Where did spiritual power and ling power come form?
The core of the spell Gongsun Cha had created was one word, steal!
When Zuo Mo understood this point, he had to sigh. As expected of a battle generals cultivation
spell. It completely fit with the thinking of a battle general! He was even suspicious. Had the
frequent raids in Little Mountain Jie left aftereffects on Gongsun Shidi?
What surprised Zuo Mo even more was that while this technique was very rudimentary and not
complete, there were no fatal mistakes.
He now understood why those threads of soul base source would enter Gongsun Chas skin.
Base source substances like the soul base source were great nutrients for Gongsun Shidi.
Somewhat interesting! Pu Yao couldnt resist praising. In zhuji and knows to create this spell,
his future is limitless. He suddenly felt it was very absurd. Without noticing it, there was a great
number of people with power and good talent that gathered beside Zuo Mo.
And all of these people without exception had been unknown and disregarded before.

Like Gongsun Cha. He only knew of a few rare battle generals that could comprehend spells on
their own. This spell in his view was very rough and rudimentary, but as Gongsun Chas
knowledge and strength increased, the spell could be gradually perfected. It was also the
beginning stages of this spell that caused Pu Yao to see the rise of a peerless battle general!
Pu Yao was very emotional. Even he had never thought that Gongsun Cha would reach this step.
Gongsun Chas speed of improvement made him feel shock. Was this guy born to be a battle
general?
Such talent. There were only a few familiar names that he knew who could rival it.
He couldnt help but glance at Zuo Mo. This boy had great luck!
Pu Yao suddenly felt anticipation. He already felt amazement at Zuo Mos talent. Now that he
had the help of a battle general of limitless potential, what heights could they reach?
At this moment, he deeply felt that he really made a profit in taking this student!
The terrible accounts from the past, maybe there was the chance to get them back
Pu Yao rubbed his chin and smiled darkly.
Zuo Mo did not know Pu Yaos schemes. After asking Pu Yao and being informed that there were
no significant problems with the spell, he started to help Gongsun Shidi. Gongsun Shidis spell
did not have any major problems, but the most difficult part was the first step. The core of this
spell was to steal the consciousness and ling power of other entities for themselves. But at the
beginning, he was like an infant and did not have the power to steal.
But right now, there was a great change. The soul base sources of these fiend souls had no
impurities, were warm and nurturing. Gongsun Cha had no problems absorbing them.
After discussing with Gongsun Cha for a while, Gongsun Cha instantly wanted to try it out.
Battle generals were really not normal people!
Zuo Mo muttered inside. His actions were not slow as he continued his fishing. But this time,
the soul base sources were given to Gongsun Shidi. Gongsun Cha did not refuse and absorbed as
much as possible.
In a short while, two smears of red came onto Gongsun Chas face as though he was drunk. He
instantly sat down cross-legged.
Zuo Mo stopped. Gongsun Shidis cultivation was still too shallow. It would take time to
completely absorb all of this soul base source. So he started to swallow soul base source himself.
These were great food to him too.
This patch of fiendish mist was endless, and it seemed there was no end to the fiend souls inside.
They continuously leapt towards the Nine Turn Sky Earth Disk. None of them were able to touch
the Nine Turn Sky Earth Disk before they were struck by little yao arts and were dissipated like
steam to only leave behind a thin thread of soul base source.
After four hours, Gongsun Cha opened his eyes. With a joyful expression, he leapt up and said
shamelessly, Shixiong, lets do it again!
Zuo Mo nodded. He didnt waste words, and continued to cast little yao arts.
He used each of the five hundred little yao arts multiple times, and included some of the low
level yao arts that he had learned from Vast Water Clear Skies or he tried to combine different
little yao arts together. The amount of spiritual power expended by little yao arts was very little.
Zuo Mo was also very practiced. Adding on that he continuously absorbed soul base source, his
consciousness continued to grow and he became even more at ease.
This time, Gongsun Cha absorbed two-tenths more soul base source than last time before he sat
down again.

After twenty hours, Zuo Mo felt a bit tired and hurriedly put away the Nine Turn Sky Earth Disk.
Having lost their target, the fiend souls instantly left. The surrounding became quiet.
Zuo Mo sat down with crossed legs. Each of the ten stars inside his body were bright, and the
falling starlight seemed to turn as tangible as mist.
He could feel his spiritual power was full as though it was going to spill.
Was he going to level up?
Zuo Mos mind moved, and he started his scripture.

Sword light flashed in Wei Shengs hands. The fiend souls that leapt forward were instantly
destroyed. The few threads of soul base source flew into the flying sword in his hand. This long
black sword in his hand was tall, standing up to his chest, and looked like a horse chopping
saber. It was simple in design. The black sheath did not have many adornments. He had found
this black sword the first day he had been transported here.
At that time, this black sword had been inserted into the ground. He had found the sword sheath
nearby. This black sword was filled with a violent presence. Holding it in his hand, his mind
would easily be affected. Originally, Wei Sheng did not like such a vicious sword.
However, he did not throw this black sword away but held it in his hand. He was using this
vicious sword to train his resolve!
His expression was calm, his steps unusually determined. The fiendish mist could not go within
one zhang of him.
He did not remember how long he had been in this patch of blood mist but he was not nervous.
He was actually very excited. The blood mist in his view was just a harder version of the sword
cave. Going through the sword cave alone was very dangerous , but his strength had increased
most rapidly in that period of time.
Nothing could excite him more than increasing his strength!
Also, being far removed from the common matters of the sect which irritated him, his mind was
abnormally clear. He could feel his improvement. This feeling hadnt appeared for a very long
time.
Each step was a steady step he took towards the peak of the sword path.
The first day he had been transported to this bloody mist, he had detected the strangeness of the
bloody mist. After finding the black sword, he quickly found that the black sword was not
affected by the bloody mist at all.
When he found that the black sword could swallow the soul base source, he was shocked. This
meant that there was a sword spirit inside the sword.
Flying swords had had sword spirits were the finest quality flying swords, but Wei Sheng did not
have much joy. This black sword had such a vicious and violent presence, if it had a sword spirit,
it would be a vicious spirit!
Strangely, no matter how he investigated, he could not find the existence of the sword spirit.
His heart did not wallow in the strangeness of the black sword. Even the best flying sword was
just a material object to him. If his sword heart was strong, it would not be corroded by external
evils.
After walking for multiple hours, he stopped and shoved the black sword in his hand into the
ground beside his feet.

He had discovered that the fiend souls did not fear the black sword when it was in his hand. Once
the black sword left his hand, there would definitely be nothing like the fiend souls within one
hundred zhang.
The surroundings were blurry.
Wei Shengs brow furrowed. These past days, he tried to control his ling power, but his ling
power was almost at its bottom. The ling energy in this patch of bloody mist was very thin. He
could only replenish his ling power through jingshi, but he usually did not carry much jingshi
with him.
The situation wasnt good!
Translator Ramblings: If the chapter tomorrow is late, its probably because I was too exhausted
by the last few days to wake up in the morning. WordPress old editor is much easier to use to
copy posts and schedule them.
Gongsun Chas new spell will be expanded on in the future and Pu Yao is so delighted at having
a good student. Gongsun Cha: battle general extraordinaire, pretty boy extraordinaire and now
stealer of soul energy.
We also get a scene for Wei Sheng. Lucky him to get transported to a dangerous place but have
the good fortune to pick up a mysterious weapon that is very helpful in this situation.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Forty One Nan Yues Little
Yao Arts
This chapter has been brought to you by me, and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter Three Hundred and Forty Two Nan Yues Little Yao Arts
Nan Yue walked into the yao art house as usual. Her expression was calm. She met many
classmates and good friends along the way. Everyone chatted but no one had the carefree
expressions they usually had. The mood was slightly tense.
Today was the annual house exam. The results of the exam would greatly determine their future
fate. The Purple Lotus Yao Art House wasnt a famous house, but it had some influence in this
jie. This could not be separated from their strict exam.
A Yue!
A familiar shout came from behind her. Without needing to turn her head, Nan Yue knew who it
was. She stopped walking, turned around, and said curiously, Hong, arent you exempt from the
exam? Why are you here?
Hong was Nan Yues best friend. They knew each other from childhood and had a close
relationship. Hong came from a very obscure little clan. However, this clans yao were all skilled
in illusory yao arts from birth. Hong naturally studied those yao arts. Due to her outstanding
talent, Hong had been accepted as a student by a teacher when she entered the yao art house.
Hong did not need to go through the exam so Nan Yue felt shock at Hongs appearance.
Hong was dressed colorfully and had a blooming smile on her face. I came to see your exam.
How can I miss such an important time?
Nan Yue was very moved, and said, Its just an exam. There is no need to be nervous.

En en, with A Yues strength, it definitely wouldnt be a problem. Hong was filled with
confidence. She suddenly came over with a secretive expression and said in a low voice, They
said that a daren from the Creeping Sedges Corps.
A daren from the Creeping Sedges Corps? Nan Yue stilled and then her expression changed.
The Creeping Sedge Corps of Bing Lan Daren?
Hong was very satisfied with Nan Yues expression and giggled. Other than Bing Lan Darens
Creeping Sedges Corps, where is there any other Creeping Sedges Corps? How about it, are you
moved?
Other than being taken as a student by a teacher, going into the military was also a pretty good
path. In the military, one would be able to learn many practical yao arts, and when enough
service was accumulated, it was possible to learn more profound yao arts. Right now, the fighting
at the front was raging, and this was the best chance to accumulate service.
Nan Yue smiled and didnt speak. If she had not encountered Daren, she would definitely be
moved. But right now, she did not have any extraneous thoughts.
It was great honor to be able to follow Daren!
She was not clear to Elders identity, but there was a point that was undoubtable, Elder had a
deep history with the Wisteria Clan of the South Sky. In these past days, she was left full of
respect towards Elder. She could clearly feel her own strength leaping forward.
The nondescript little yao arts actually contained such deep meaning.
Nan Yues indifference was unexpected to Hong. She made a sound of surprise and re-examined
her good friend. Nan Yue did not look any different than usual. She still wore plain clothing, but
there seemed to be something extra to her. But what was it? Hong could not say.
A Yue, did something happen recently? Hong asked probingly.
Nothing. Nan Yue shook her head. Seeing Hongs concern, her heart warmed. She hesitated
but did not speak of Elder to Hong. Without Darens permission, she did not dare to carelessly
speak of it.
However, Creeping Sedge Corps
In the past, entering Creeping Sedge Corps was one of her goals.
The mood of the yao art house was tense, and slightly restless. The news that a daren from the
Creeping Sedge Corps came to see the exams made every student participating in the exams
excited. Creeping Sedge Corps was very strong, and Bing Lan Daren was immeasurable in her
power. Bing Lan Daren was also very beautiful, and the dream of countless male students.
For female yao, being able to enter the Creeping Sedge Corps was a good route.
Afterwards, Nan Yue saw the daren that came from the Creeping Sedge Corps. This darens
figure was upright and she was handsome and attractive. Her golden eyes were especially
enchanting. This daren most likely came from the Gold Clan. Standing on the stage, a sharp
presence filled the room.
Nan Yue found that this presence was stronger than the great majority of teachers in this yao art
house. The yao art house teachers may have deeper skill on the yao arts, but compared to the
combat yao that came back from the front lines, they were lacking in their killing aura.
Many students became excited. It was rare to be able to enter a military troop like the Creeping
Sedge Corps that was known all over the yao world. Without any encouragement, every yao was
filled with competitiveness.
The exam began with this anticipation and restlessness.

The exam this time was much fiercer than in the past, but Nan Yue was not excited at all. Purple
Lotus Yao Art House was not a famed house, and there were only those few familiar faces. There
were no new people that made her eyes light up.
Also, these novel yao arts that she would have been excited about before could not cause any
ripples in her heart.
She felt very strange.
It was the first time she felt so strange. In her eyes, those grand and dazzling yao arts seemed to
be insubstantial. Her mind would uncontrollably think of little yao art combinations that could
replace these dazzling yao arts.
This feeling made her uncomfortable. Before, she would be excited when she saw this yao arts
and she would constantly rehearse them in her mind.
She silently warned herself to not be proud. She could not underestimate everyone just because
she learned something. She suddenly thought about Elder talking of little yao arts to her that day.
She remembered every word that Elder had said.
Suddenly, Hong poked her from the side. A Yue, its your turn.
Oh, she responded. She refocused and looked at the exam area. Focusing her mind, she flew to
the field.
Her opponent was Shi Zheng. This was a familiar opponent. Shi Zhengs experiences were very
similar to hers. He also worked very hard, but similarly, no teacher had accepted him. However,
he was older than Nan Yue, making his situation even worse.

When Shi Zheng saw Nan Yue, he was joyed. The yao arts he was skilled in could subdue Nan
Yue to a certain extent.
Begin!
The teacher responsible for judging shouted. Shi Zhengs body lit up with light. This was the yao
art that he was most skilled in, [Rock Driving Flow]!
Shi Zhengs clan was yao from rock, and was innately skilled in rock-type yao arts.
This [Rock Driving Flow] was Shi Zhengs best yao art. The lights on his body could perform
greatly in defense, and it could stop the enemy from harming him when it was cast.
A light flashed at the other side. The corner of Shi Zhengs eye jerked. So fast!1
Nan Yues yao art was already completed!
However, he did not panic. The higher the level of the yao art, the more time it took to cast.
Since Nan Yue finished the yao art so quickly, it definitely was a low level yao art, and couldnt
stop [Rock Driving Flow].
Shi Zheng was full of confidence. He knew very few moves, but due to this, the power of his
[Rock Driving Flow] was far greater than normal low level yao arts and was at the borders of
intermediate yao arts.
Just as he was thinking, Nan Yues yao art had already hit the light on his body.
The presence of his body loosened.
This was Little Yao Art Mist Manifestation!
The concentrated rock energy suddenly lightened and he almost lost control of it. Shi Zheng was
shocked. Little yao arts could be used like this?
Several sounds of surprise occurred on the spectator stage. The eyes of the daren from the
Creeping Sedge Corps flashed with light.

Shi Zheng was shocked but not panicked. Little yao arts were just little yao arts. Their power
was very limited. If she thought she could use this little yao art to make him lose control of the
rock energy, that was a delusion.
He hurriedly adjusted his consciousness to strengthen his control. He heard pia pia pia, three yao
arts in a row which was cast with blurring speed. Two of them hit his body, and one hit the
ground under his feet.
Little Yao Art Compression!
Little Yao Art Gold Transformation!
Shi Zhengs consciousness gathered the rock energy to prevent it from dissipating. He hadnt
expected a pressure to push over. When the two powers collided together, the rock energy
immediately collapsed and turned to granite!
In the blink of an eye, a thin layer of rock amor appeared on Shi Zhengs body.
Yet when the rock armor took form, it blinked with a metallic gleam as though it was a thin metal
armor that wrapped securely around Shi Zheng.
Shi Zheng felt unable to breath. His entire body was enclosed and separated from the outside.
Gritting his teeth, he tried to absorb rock energy from below his feet when a great force suddenly
came from under him. His figure instantly unbalanced and flew to one side.
The others only saw a rush of water shoot up from under Shi Zhengs feet and throw him to the
side. It was another little yao art they were very familiar with, Spring Summon!
Shi Zheng was hit with another light as he flew through the air. His figure was strangely pinned
in midair.
Little Yao Art Spider Restraint!
Nan Yues ten fingers lit up with light like ten little lanterns.
The ten fingers was poised to act, Little Yao Art Wind Spear!
Shi Zhengs head rang. He knew he lost. His body was unable to move, and was trapped and
isolated by the metallic armor meaning he could not absorb any rock energy. He would only be a
sitting target. The power of wind spears was not high, but ten wind spears were more than
enough to penetrate him.
I lost!
His mind was blank. He didnt even know how he said the words. The spectators rumbled. The
struggle they had originally imagined ended with such a strange way.

Clap clap clap, on the stage, the daren from the Creeping Sedge Corps clapped her hands as she
rose, and said in praise, Good! Little girl, are you willing to come to Creeping Sedge Corps?
Woosh, countless eyes gathered at the same time on Nan Yues body filled with admiration and
envy.
Many thanks for Darens favor! Nan Yue respectfully bowed and raised her head. Her eyes
were crystal clear. Nan Yue is planning on staying longer in the house. Daren, please forgive
me.
Hong shouted from below the field. She looked with disbelief at Nan Yue and thought she had
heard it incorrectly.
The daren from the Creeping Sedge Corps was also surprised but she was not angry. She said
faintly, Never mind then. Then she sat down.

But those with eyes could see the dissatisfaction of this daren. On the field, Nan Yue seemed
unconcerned. Under the strange looks of everyone else, she casually flew off the field.
The exam did not stop due to this little detour. When it ended, there were three students that were
picked to enter Creeping Sedge Corps. This daren did not stay. After picking the three people,
she took them and flew away from Purple Lotus Yao Art House.
And Nan Yue that shook all of the house was facing Hong, who had a terrible expression, and
felt a headache.
Translator Ramblings: Wu Kong Sword Sect and Zuo Mos group are not extremely different.
There is a lot of people around, it is better to focus on being good at one thing so you can
differentiate yourself and also put your energies into making yourself more powerful in one field
so you can trade for services. I imagine the elders and the other disciples get hired for protection
jobs and such. They encourage other areas to specialize in, such as what Xin Yan, Yan Le and Shi
Feng Rong has done in forging, business and dan-making because it is also of benefit to their
cultivation.
Zuo Mo is in a different environment, one where he was isolated in Little Mountain Jie from any
services. Unlike Wu Kong Sword Sect that could trade with other sects for services or hire
people, he really had no allies or people to trade with. His only option was to forge and gather
what he needed and train people. In this aspect, Zuo Mos group is actually not too different from
Wu Kong Sword Sect who also trains disciples. However, both Golden Crow Camp and
Vermillion Bird Camp have more members and Golden Crow Camp in particular have become a
workshop that is running a profitable business. Zuo Mo and Gongsun Cha have combined to
essentially mass-manufacture fighters with sword essence. In conclusion, Zuo Mo is just better
at pumping out fighters to make an army and forging more porducts to sell than Wu Kong Sword
Sect. Zuo Mo himself is better at cultivating in the way of yao and mo, but his group is
essentially a forging-and-sword sect.

Chapter Three Hundred and Forty Three Integration
Zuo Mo was very tired, but Gongsun Cha looked as though he had just ate a full meal. At the
side, Lil Pagoda was also very content. It may have been due to Lil Pagodas urging that while
Zuo Mo was fishing, the three little ones had come over, and divided the threads of soul base
source among themselves.
Lil Black was the first to become full, then it was Lil Fire. But Lil Pagodas round body
seemed to hide a bottomless pit.
When his last bit of spiritual power was used up, Zuo Mo still didnt get even one bite.
Lil Pagoda contently patted its body had had become slightly rounder, snuggled on Zuo Mos
body and ran off to play.
Zuo Mo didnt even have the energy to swear. Dropping to the ground, he quickly started to
meditate. The spiritual power in his body had been completely squeezed out. The ten stars in his
sea of consciousness started to slowly spin.

As the star light swirled, the void above the sea of consciousness seemed to become brighter. Pu
Yao raised his head and his expression changed as he looked at the turning stars.
If Zuo Mo could look into himself at this time, he would find to his shock the starlight given off
by the ten stars in his sea of consciousness was integrating into his flesh and blood.
Threads of golden light suddenly flooded out from his flesh and blood. These golden lights were
as thin as hairs, and were moving freely in the flesh. These golden lights might be small, but
when they appeared, they had a domineering and fiery presence. Pu Yao did not understand much
about mo physiques, but he had deep cultivation, and naturally could recognize what these
tyrannical golden lights were.
The golden lights were the Great Day essence energies that were born from Zuo Mos cultivation
of the Great Day mo physique. The Great Day essence energies nurtured his body and made it
even stronger. At this time, these Great Day essence energies were like a school of fish that smelt
blood and leapt at the dots of starlight merging into the flesh and blood.
This was
Pu Yao was shocked. How could Great Day essence energies swallow star spiritual sand?
Shocked, his expression became grave. What was happening in front of him was beyond the
realms of his knowledge. He was skilled in all kinds of yao arts. To his knowledge, spiritual
cultivation and the mo physique were clearly divided and never interacted.
Who could have thought the two would actually integrate!
It appeared as though the Great Day essence energies were swallowing the star spiritual sand, but
Pu Yao clearly saw that the star spiritual sand did not put up any resistance. Otherwise Zuo Mos
body would have become a terrifying battlefield.
The Great Day essence energies were tyrannical but the star spiritual sand was profound. If the
two conflicted, it definitely would be a fierce battle.
This was what Pu Yao was worried about the most. In his predictions, the best result was the two
sides were fine. Out of caution, he made up several plans to resolve this issue, but he had not
expected that the Great Day essence energies and the star spiritual sand wouldnt conflict at all,
but attracted each other.
He looked dazedly at such a fantastical scene.
Could the spirit and the mo physique be cultivated together? But it had never succeeded in
history. He actually knew of many great geniuses who had died on this path. The connection
between yao and mo had never been broken. The two sides general maintained a friendly
relationship since they had the same enemy.
Under this kind of cultural exchange, the idea of cultivating the spirit and the body at the same
time naturally was produced. This idea had appeared many years ago, but there had never been
one that actually cultivated the spirit and the body. The conclusion everyone made was that the
combination of the two were fine in lower stages. But as one cultivated to higher stages, the
drastic gap between the two sides would be expressed.
The reason that Pu Yao had not restricted Zuo Mo from cultivating the Great Day mo physique
was because of how powerful the Great Day mo physique was at this stage as it was life-saving.
The other reason was that his level was presently too low to cause significant problems.
But the scene in front of him defied Pu Yaos expectations and knowledge.
These Great Day essence energies were not great in number but each was peerlessly powerful.
The dots of star spiritual sand could only be produced by yao that had awakened their second
spirit. How could they integrate?

The entire process continued for six hours. Dots of star light came continuously from between
Zuo Mos brows. The Great Day essence energies swam everywhere and furiously swallowed the
starlight. The starlight released between the brows gradually thinned. When the last bit of star
light was consumed, the Great Day essence energies retreated back into the flesh and blood.
Zuo Mo opened his eyes at this time.
His body felt unspeakably comfortable and content. His spiritual power had completely
recovered, and he felt it was slightly full as though it had leveled up again. His body was also
filled with strength. Had Great Day mo physique also advanced?
Zuo Mo felt it was strange. When he had been at Wu Kong Mountain, the feeling when he was
cultivating [Embryonic Breathing Spiritual Cultivation] was not so beautiful. Now, he felt very
pleasurable each time and it was really addicting. The difference between past and present was
too great. He was worried that his cultivation had gone wrong somewhere.
Pu, The slightly worried Zuo Mo hurriedly found Pu Yao in the sea of consciousness, there
isnt any incorrect places in my cultivation, right?
A strange look flashed across Pu Yaos face. He did not answer directly, and asked interestedly,
What? Is somewhere feeling not right?
No, thats not it. Zuo Mo shook his head. I feel that cultivation is becoming increasingly
pleasurable. If cultivation is always this pleasurable, wouldnt everyone be intoxicated with
cultivating every day?
The dullness and hardship of cultivation was very securely rooted in Zuo Mos knowledge.
Pu Yaos expression was slightly displeasured. He felt Zuo Mos words were too ungrateful.
Despite his displeasure, he was very interested in this matter. Taking Zuo Mos start, he followed
along and said, Then let me inspect you.
As Zuo Mos strength increased over time, Pu Yao could not manipulate Zuo Mos body like he
used to without getting permission.
After the inspection, the strange expression on Pu Yaos face grew. Zuo Mo instantly panic,
What is it?
Your Great Day mo physique is almost at first maturation!
First maturation? Maturation? This quickly? Zuo Mo still and was then overjoyed. The
maturation of a mo physique was the representation that a mo physique was advancing. After
each maturation was completed, the maturation level of the mo physique would go up a whole
level. The more mature a mo physique was, the more power it contained.
No wonder he felt a bit strange. So his Great Day mo physique was maturing!
Zuo Mo was very happy. He hadnt though the first maturation of the Great Day mo physique
would come so quickly. He was also slightly surprised. He had only spent a short time with the
Great Day mo physique, and he was already facing the first maturation.
As expected of the Great Day mo physique that ranked second of all brigadier mo physiques. It
wasnt just powerful, it was easy to cultivate.
If Pu Yao knew what Zuo Mo was thinking at this moment, he would die from spitting blood. He
didnt look any different on the surface but there were tsunamis in his heart.
It was true that Zuo Mos Great Day mo physique was facing its first maturation, but Pu Yao
hadnt said the second part which was the maturation of the Great Day mo physique had already
begun! The maturation of the Great Day mo physique this time was completely different than any
of the mo physiques maturations he knew about.
Mo physique maturation was an extremely important and dangerous time for any mo because the
mo physique would reorganize itself during this time. If it was successful, their strength would

grow, but if it failed, then it was the end. So mo were extremely sensitive to the maturation of
their mo physique. When it was the time for a mo maturation, they would find a safe place to
safely finish the maturation.
Zuo Mo did not know that his Great Day mo physique had entered the time of maturation. The
Great Day essence energies were silently changing his body, yet he did not know. The maturation
process that should have been strong and dangerous had become much slower in tempo, so slow
that Zuo Mo could not detect it.
As the tempo slowed, risk decreased to the point there almost was no danger at all. It was very
clear to Pu Yao that Zuo Mo would have no problems in finishing the first maturation, but it
would just occur over a longer time frame.
Pu Yao knew what this meant. The percentage of mo that died during their maturations was the
highest of those that cultivated the mo physique.
His expression changed slightly.
Zuo Mo did not notice Pu Yaos abnormality. Since it was a good thing, he was too lazy to think
further. Just as he left the sea of consciousness, Lil Pagoda came over and glued itself onto him.
Lil Fire chirped as it floated around his body.
Lil Black was in deep slumber on A Guis head, and Silly Bird was lazily lying beside A Gui.
A black figure flew out of the fiendish mist like a sharp arrow in front of Zuo Mo. It was Tenth
Grade. Tenth Grade exuded a killing energy all over. His black crescent had grown slightly. Zuo
Mo couldnt resist praising him, Tenth Grade is really working hard!
Tenth Grade clearly was very motivated by Zuo Mos praise. He raised his little head. Just as he
was going to start a speech, he suddenly saw a light flash through the narrow crack of Silly
Birds eyelids who had been sleeping. He instantly shook, and the words that reached his mouth
were swallowed back down.
Just at this time, a strange sound came from the sky. The enormous egg-shaped fiendish mist ball
suddenly cracked!
A vast and viciously sharp presence exploded and spread like a gale wind.
Such strong sword essence!
Zuo Mo was shocked. Ma Fan was in that ball of fiendish mist. He hurriedly raised his head and
looked at the sky. The noise disturbed the entire camp. Vermillion Bird Camp and Guard Camp
all stopped.
The vast yet vicious sword essence made them feel fear.
Ma Fan looked to be in very sorry state. His clothing was in tatters, and was covered in wounds
that seeped blood. What made others feel strange was that his face was unusually peaceful and
calm without any hint of pain.
He slowly opened his eyes.
Even though he was very far away, Zuo Mo still clearly captured the joy that spilled from Ma
Fans eyes.
Had he succeeded?
Zuo Mo didnt get to think closely when he saw Ma Fans body began free falling. He paled. The
Light Void Wings suddenly appeared on his back, and he disappeared from his spot.
Almost at the same time, he appeared below where Ma Fan was falling. He caught the
unconscious Ma Fan and flashed back to the camp.
This change happened in a lightning flash. Before everyone could react, Zuo Mo had retreated to
the campsite.

He carefully place Ma Fan on the ground. Xie Shan worriedly came over. Daren, is Ma Fan
alright?
Zuo Mo carefully inspected and said, Nothing, he only fainted from exhaustion.
Everyone finally was released from their worry.

In the depth of the fiendish mist, Wei Sheng suddenly stopped moving and his eyes lit up.
Sword essence!
Translator Ramblings: Yes, I was a bit off yesterday. I edited and then scheduled the post before
dropping off into sleep. Im still very tired but perfectly fine otherwise. Sitting on a car is tiring
and so is driving even if there are breaks. I have never appreciated those long distance bus
drivers more than now. Unfortunately, I didnt translate at all on the trip so I need to find my
rhythm again.
Wei Sheng senses Ma Fans sword essence first. Theres going to be POV switching going on in
the upcoming chapters as we are introduced to new characters and stuff will be going on.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Forty Four Yi Zheng
This chapter has been brought to you by me and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter Three Hundred and Forty Four Yi Zheng
Mu Xi observed the troop of xiuzhe in the distance and could not disguise the shock in her eyes.
It wasnt just her, even Yan Feng who usually looked down on everyone had uncertain and
shocked expressions.
The formation of this xiuzhe troop was not organized, they appeared interlocked together which
gave Mu Xi the impression of teeth. The murderous intent was like an undercurrent. The
continued fights between the two forces had left a deep impression of this troop.
These xiuzhe were not powerful, and were of equal strength to her subordinates, but she had not
won any advantage from this troop in their successive battles.
Her eyes landed on the white-clothed youth at the very center. She suddenly had a feeling that
this person may be her archrival.
In their successive encounters, this young xiuzhe was cautious in command, slow and unhurried
with the mannerism of a great battle general. She admired him. This person definitely was a core
disciple of a large sect and had been well-taught. It was possible to see hints of this from the
xiuzhe around him. In order to protect him, they did not care for their lives.
Mu Xis eyes glittered. She suddenly floated out of the ranks and loudly said, This one is Mu
Xi. We will bid farewell today and meet on another battlefield. Sire, take care!
The enemy ranks separated, and the white-clothed youth came forward. He said with a slightly
smile, No wonder. As expected of the Palace Lake Wood Clan! Lin Qian is honored!
Mu Xi was shocked and did not disguise the shock on her face. Brother Lin actually knows of
the Palace Lake Wood Clan, you have vast knowledge, this little female is full of admiration!
Wood Clan was one of the five largest clans of the yao world, and was the clan with the most
branches. Even in the yao world, not every person would recognize her origins. It was a

testament to how powerful Lin Qians background was to know her origins, especially since he
was a xiuzhe.
Lin Qian saw Mu Xi was straightforward and honest and was not putting on a performance. He
couldnt help but show hints of admiration in his eyes. Miss, take care!
Mu Xi smiled brightly and gracefully bowed. Have a good trip, Brother Lin!
Seeing the people disappear, Yan Feng said with slightly anger, We are just letting them escape
like this?
Mu Xi glanced at him. Can we stop them?
Yan Feng stopped. He argued, If we can slow them down, when the other daren rush over and
surround
Then we wont have completed our task, Mu Xi interrupted him. She said faintly, Dont
forget what we came to do!
Yan Feng was speechless.
This person will become a great enemy of Daren! the middle-aged person beside Mu Xi said
worriedly with a grave face.
Mu Xi combed her hair, and said with a smile, There are so many daren in the military, when
would it ever be my turn to worry about this?
Daren is too modest! the middle-aged person said smilingly. He deeply believed that Mu Xi
had a bright future. Off to the side, Yan Feng dismissively twisted his mouth but did not say any
words that would provoke public fury.
Lin Qians procession quickly travelled away. After fighting multiple times with this yao military
troop, they had sustained fatalities and injuries on both dies. Lin Qians expression was as clear
as water, calm and steady. No hint of hurry was shown. The xiuzhe that accompanied him were
well trained and disciplined. No one spoke extraneously.

Xuan Kong Realm


The sound of bells echoed among the mountain range. A nondescript little temple was settled
amongst the peaks. The yellow temple walls were covered in creeping vines, and were topped
with grey-green terracotta shingles. There were many stone statues of life-like buddhas placed
inside the temples. A small rainstorm had just passed, and the air was filled with the sweet scent
of green grass. The rain remaining on the shingles flowed following the eaves like pearls off a
broken string. As they hit the puddles on the stones, ding ding dong dong, the sound was very
pleasing to hear.
Two dhyana xiu were sitting in the main hall of the little temple.
Shixiong, Im afraid I will have difficulty getting time to come visit Shixiong during this trip!
The young dhyana xiu was reluctant to leave. He was wearing blue monk robes. His features
were handsome, untouched by mortal matters. A faint layer of light glistened over the pair of
eyes. He looked to be about twenty years old, a kind of stillness within his handsomeness.
Kneeling on the meditation mat, one could still feel his high spirits.
The older dhyana xiu smiled warmly and said, Its good for you to go, you will return in the
end.
The faint yellow monk robe that he wore had been washed for innumerable times. The colour
was already faded and patchwork mending could be seen to dot the robe. There were no signs of
ling power anywhere on his body. He was not any different than a normal person.

En, Ive already ordered the people below to deliver each months allowance on schedule! the
young dhyana xiu said in a light voice. Ill return very soon.
Shixiong waved his hand and smiled lightly. He said, You know that I do not need these
material items.
That is not alright! The spine of the young dhyana xiu straightened and he said seriously,
Shixiong needs to promise me to take care of yourself. Only then can I feel safe leaving. There
are still some more ling grasses needed for the Nine Song Dan. I can go and thoroughly search
when I leave this time. When the Nine Song Dan is made, Shixiongs cultivation will recover.
Hmph, lets see who dares to harass Shixiong then!
When he got to the end, a thread of violence flashed through his eyes.
Shidi, you have to avoid corruption, the yellow-robed dhyana xiu said lightly.
Shixiong is right to lecture me. The young dhyana xiu lowered his head and hurried to admit
his wrongs.
Even if you are out, do not slack in training your Samadhi.
Yes.
Yi Zheng looked back at the little temple at the back of the mountain, leapt up and disappeared
into the sky. He hadnt flown for a long time before he encountered some people. When he saw
the people clearly, Yi Zhengs brows couldnt help but slightly furrow.
The others quickly noticed Yi Zheng as well, and slowed down their flight speed.
I heard that Shidi is going on a long trip, congratulations, congratulations! The person coming
smiled as he bowed with folded hands.
Yi Zheng calmly returned the greeting, It is due to the protection and love from all the
shixiong.
The two sides chatted a bit more, and then left after detecting that the other had no intentions of
talking more.
Yi Zhengs mood hadnt been good to start with, and his mood now was even worse. This group
of people were the disciples of Cui Shishus branch. The sect was prosperous right now. The
number of disciples had increased, and the number of conflicts and inner struggles had grown.
Yi Zhengs master had left on a mission and never returned. Shixiong had raised him alone.
Shixiong was very talented, and ranked within the top ten of this generation. All the elders of the
sect thought he had a good future. Unexpectedly, Shixiong was heavily wounded during a
mission. Even though his life had been saved, but his cultivation became non-existent.
Starting from that point on their branch declined even further. Shixiong came to Little Stone
Buddha Temple to recuperate. Yi Zheng had been thirteen then, and had worked even harder after
that. Fortunately, while Shixiongs cultivation had disappeared, he could still guide Yi Zhengs
cultivation. In the last dhyana exam, he had claimed the fifteenth rank and re-entered the eyes of
the sect elders to take on this mission.
The rule of the sect was that each disciple had a monthly allowance, but this allowance was just
enough for daily cultivation needs. The other disciples received gifts from their masters but Yi
Zheng could only rely on other avenues such as teaching lower disciples on cultivation. That was
his primary source of income. The sect was still generous to its disciples, and the payment of
every mission was very generous. However, there were many geniuses in the sect, and the
competition for missions was the fiercest. In the past, he did not have the power to compete.
Until now.
After some preparations, he decided to leave the mountain.

He had already memorized the contents of the mission. During his flight, he started to think. The
mission this time was not complex. One of the smaller subordinate sects found a very deep and
strange hole. Bloody light roiled in the deep hole. None of the people that went in had come out.
What he needed to do was to investigate and see what the situation inside was like. Then he
would have to report back to the sect.
After flying for more than ten days, he finally arrived at the sect of the incident, One Light Sect.

Ma Fan still had not regained consciousness when Zuo Mo was pulled back into Vast Water
Clear Skies by Pu Yao.
Pu, what connection does that Wisteria Clan of the South Sky have with you? Zuo Mo asked.
He could see that Pu Yao cared for Nan Yue. With this guys frugal personality, having him
proactively passing on yao arts was akin to the sun rising from the west.
Zuo Mo also saw that Pu Yao didnt just intend to pass [South Sky Arrow Art] to Nan Yue.
The descendants of old friends, Pu Yao said faintly.
Pu Yaos answer provided the speculation Zuo Mo had. He then asked curiously, What yao art is
[South Sky Arrow Art]? A yao art using arrows?
A very strong yao art.
Pu Yaos answer seemed to avoid the point but Zuo Mo pondered it. A yao art that Pu Yao called
strong, then it really was powerful!
Just as Zuo Mos gossiping soul was stirred by Pu Yaos scarce words and he was preparing to
delve into this mystery, Nan Yue came.

Nan Yue respectfully bowed to Zuo Mo. Daren!


She had shone in the spotlight in the last house exam and shocked all members of the house. Her
status in the house had rocketed, and several teachers had come over requesting to take her as a
student. However, she had refused all of them respectfully. She had not learned any profound
yao arts, but Darens teachings had opened a completely new world to her.
She believed that even if there really was no [South Sky Arrow Art], she would still find a path.
It was the understandings she had gained during this past while that had caused her to become
even more respectful towards Zuo Mo. Darens strength was even more profound! In her eyes,
there was a large chasm between the teachers of the house compared to Daren.
Oh, youre here, Zuo Mo pretentiously responded and then asked, Do you have any
questions? If you have them, then ask.
Nan Yue suppressed the excitement inside, and raised up all the problems she had encountered
and thought about in the recent days.
Because they were all about little yao arts, Zuo Mo did not slack off and tried to answer them by
himself rather than throw the questions to Pu Yao. Zuo Mo had been with Pu Yao for a long time,
and through listening and watching, the yao art theory that he had come into contact with was
much more profound than Nan Yue. Due to this, the perspective from which he approached at the
questions was a few fractions deeper than Nan Yue. Nan Yues eyes lit up upon hearing the
explanations and continuously nodded her head.
For Zuo Mo, this was also a significant test. There were two questions that Nan Yue raised which
he had not thought about, and greatly affected him.

After all the questions were resolved, Nan Yue smiled happily. Zuo Mos head was covered with
sweat as he released a breath.
If he hadnt been able to answer a question, then it really was embarrassing!
And to be embarrassed in front of a yao [i]
Just as this nonsensical thought came into Zuo Mos head, he suddenly heard someone shout,
Nan Yue! Nan Yue!
Zuo Mo raised his head, and saw a group of people, no, a group of yao wave their hands at Nan
Yue as they excitedly ran over.
[i] Embarrassing here is , or lost person. So this is also lost person in front of a yao which
has another meaning since Zuo Mo is a human and not a yao.
Translator Ramblings: POV switching galore. Lin Qian and Mu Xi make an appearance, and so
does a new character. Mu Xi is holding on hard to her mission which means that she wont
overstep. She is a very prudent person who isnt risking herself to make achievements and no one
can say her actions were incorrect because she stayed true to the words of her mission, even
though her actions have already caused the true objective of her mission to slip away.
Xuan Kong is the second realm we are introduced to. It is the Xuan Kong Temple or the Mystical
Void/Space Temple and so Xuan Kong Sect is the strongest sect hence its name is put on the
realms name just like Kun Lun Sect and Kun Lun realm. Im actually uncertain if the dhyana
xiu are monks and nuns. I cant remember if Zong Ru has shaved his head so he actually looks
like a monk. There also hasnt been any mention of nuns.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Forty Five The Prison
Battlefield
This chapter has been brought to you by me, and WanderingGummiofDoom.
Chapter Three Hundred and Forty Five The Prison Battlefield
Nan Yue hadnt expected to meet her schoolmates here, and silently thought this was a terrible
situation. She discretely looked to Daren. Inside, she secretly prayed that this incident would not
infuriate Daren! This was the second time she had met Daren and she did not know what
Darens temper was like.
However, she had heard that many daren did not like their movements to be known.
Student Nan Yue, this is? A deep and calm voice suddenly sounded out by her ears.
She raised her head and felt that the situation was now even worse. This was Teacher Chi! Chi
had been one of the teachers that had sought her out after the house exam and wanted to take her
as a student. Chi was born from the Fire Clan and was very skilled in fire yao arts. Among the
teachers of the house, his power was enough to rank him in the top five.
Seeing so many yao art once, Zuo Mo felt his vision was broadened. This group of yao were of
various shapes, most of which were humanoid. There were two individuals that were very eyecatching. One of them had the body like a crisp green tree. Their numerous roots were like
unusually nimble feet. They seemed to have a very lively personality, the tree branches were like

soft whips that waved in the ar. The other ones body was made from hundreds of flowers that
gathered and dispersed in the air as they changed shape.
Looking like this, how was it possible to distinguish between the sexes?
This slightly profound question troubled Zuo Mo.
Chis fire red hair and lion-like features were not all that attention-grabbing in this group of
weirdos. However, Zuo Mo noticed him at first glance because he was the strongest of this group
of yao, and wasnt just marginally stronger.
Hearing what Chi called Nan Yue, Zuo Mo instantly understood Chis identity.
Sir is Nan Yues teacher? Sorry, sorry! I am Nan Yues cousin, Zuo Mo raised his folded hands
and said with a smile.
Cousin?
The groups gazes swept between Nan Yue and Zuo Mo, and their expressions instantly became
suspicious.
Darens skill at lying really sucked! Nan Yue felt very ashamed. From any angle, Daren showed
no hint of being of the same clan as her. However, since Daren had said it, she could only force
herself to say, My distant cousin.
Distant the yao all had understanding expressions.
Such a terrible lie could only fool nave students, but how could it fool an experienced old yao
like Chi? However, since the other was not willing to state his origins, Chi did not have to pry.
Everyone had secrets.
Nice to meet you. Chi politely bowed to Zuo Mo. Zuo Mos consciousness was not as high as
his, but it was above these students. Considering the others age, he clearly had great talent.
Great talent
Chis thought moved, and he pretended to unconcernedly ask, Which house is Sir in?
Im not in a yao art house. Zuo Mo shook his head honestly.
Not in a yao art house. The yao couldnt believe these words.
Why not? The tree yao waved its branches. This guy looked like an outgoing one and it
quickly rushed to be the first to ask.
Im being taught by a teacher.
Zuo Mos response instantly caused murmurs of admiration. Yao art houses were pretty good
places for normal yao, but students of a teacher could receive more guidance. Chi nodded his
head inside. Zuo Mo had not lied this time.
He suddenly thought of the string of little yao arts that Nan Yue had showed during the exam.
Had it been this cousin of hers that had taught her? The more he thought, the more Chi found it
likely. He had taught Nan Yues class before, and understood this student well. There was
nothing to be said of Nan Yues dedication and work ethic, but her talent could only be
considered good. The dazzling performance of her last exam really was not her style.
Chi finally realized why Nan Yue had refused his invitation. It must be that the teacher of her
cousin had also chosen to take Nan Yue on as a student.
Can I ask for the name of your teacher? Chi asked respectfully. That glimpse of the tip of the
iceberg had been enough. Those little yao arts had shocked Chi for a long time.
Oh, hes called Pu, Zuo Mos thought moved as he said.
Pu? Chi careful searched his memory for this name but did not find anything. It didnt seem to be
a very famous yao.

Nan Yue wanted to roll her eyes when she heard it. Darens skill at lying wasnt just terrible! Nan
Yue thought the Pu that Zuo Mo spoke off was just a random answer. Which yao would be so
casual with their teachers name?
As expected, the flower yao snorted coldly. If you dont want to say, dont say. Theres no need
to lie!
The other yao had expressions of agreement.
Zuo Mo was confused but he did not argue. He took the chance to go into the sea of
consciousness and mock Pu Yao. Pu, arent you a Sky Yao? How come no yao knows you? You
really ended up terribly!
Pu Yaos expression was visibly unwell.
Having gotten his face back from Pu Yao, Zuo Mo did not care for the cold snort of the flower
yao.
Nan Yue secretly glanced at Zuo Mo and thought inside, Darens lying skill was somewhat
terrible, but his face was thick enough.
Chi did not think that Zuo Mo was lying. He had met many powerful and great yao before, and
knew many yao had weird personalities and did not care for these things. However, he did not
plan on wasting too much time on chatter. He said with a smile, I came today to show them the
prison battlefield. It is getting late so we will bid farewell.
Zuo Mo hurriedly bowed with his hands. Chi took the bunch of little yao and quickly
disappeared.
After they went far away, Zuo Mo turned to ask Nan Yue, What is the prison battlefield?
Nan Yues expression instantly became slightly strange. Did Daren not know the prison
battlefield? She didnt quite believe it. What yao didnt know the prison battlefield? However,
she suppressed the suspicion inside and obediently answered, The prison battlefield is the place
for real combat practice. There are many yao formations inside which can only be solved with
yao arts.
Yao formations? Zuo Mos eyes lit up. Just this phrase stirred great interest in him. Yao
formation, true to the name, should be the formations that yao use. Was there any differences
compared to the seal formations that xiuzhe used?
He instantly said, Oh, take me to see.
Nan Yue found it even stranger, but still said respectfully, Yes!
Twelve hours was plenty of time for Zuo Mo. He wasnt in a hurry and taught Nan Yue yao arts
along the way. He explained in great detail the many variants of the little yao arts, and along the
way, explained why he had deconstructed yao arts last time.
Nan Yue learned a lot, and unknowingly arrived at the prison battlefield. It was the first time she
found time passed so quickly.
Daren, this is the prison battlefield!
Zuo Mo curiously examined the prison battlefield. After the first glance, he couldnt move his
eyes away.
Countless curved streams and rivers criss-crossed and passed through the void like glowing
pipes. Some of these water flows were slow, some soft, some flowed against the current, and
there were all kinds of weird ones. Among the river flows, there were some that had all kinds of
strange water grasses growing in them and others had multi-colored fish that swam within. Zuo
Mos eyes landed on an enormous fish that was thirty zhang in size that occasionally opened its
gigantic mouth. Zuo Mos heart tightened as he looked at it.

Other than the river flows, the other places were all filled with other things like lightning balls,
and clouds of fire which could be seen everywhere.
Such powerful yao formations!
After looking closely, Zuo Mo felt dizzy and shocked! No matter if it was the river flows, the
water grasses, the fish, the lightning balls or the clouds of fire, they were all part of the bigger
formation. One move against them would affect the entire entity.
This was a living great formation. Any change of one part of the formation would cause a
change in the entire formation.
After observing for a long time, he turned and asked Nan Yue, How do you play?
Play? Nan Yue stumbled over Zuo Mos strange way of asking. She could only say, Just go in.
There are three levels to the Clear Skies prison battlefield. If you can enter the innermost level,
you can enter the second prison.
The second prison? Zuo Mo was yearning to try. Were there ten levels in Ten Finger Prison?
He was already so amazed at the first prison. What was the second prison like?
Come, lets go try it out! Finishing, he pulled Nan Yue and charged in.
Nan Yue hadnt expected Daren to charge when he said so. She saw how excited Daren
appeared. Had Daren really never came before? Thinking to that, she couldnt help but hurriedly
remind him, Daren, if you fail, it may wound the consciousness.
No problem.
Before Darens words landed, Nan Yue felt the scenery in front change and become bright red!
Not good, a fire cloud!
Her expression changed drastically. In the prison battlefield, the yao arts that she was most afraid
of were those like the fire cloud.
A dragon made out of fire seemed to smell them and with a burning presence, leapt over.
Interesting!
Darens voice came over from the side. She finally remembered that Daren was beside her, and
her heart instantly was greatly reassured.
Zuo Mo really felt it was interesting. This fire dragon was made from seven interlocking fire yao
arts and was very clever. The seven fire yao arts were all little yao arts, and were not complex
yao arts. What it tested was the reaction abilities of those trying to go through the prison.
There were many ways of dealing with the fire dragon. Zuo Mo chose the simplest one.
Little Yao ArtWater Blade!
A transparent water blade entered the center of the fire dragon
Boom!
The fire dragon instantly turned to seven balls of fire and exploded.
Nan Yues eyeballs almost dropped out. She had clearly seen the little yao art that Daren had just
casted. She was able to generally estimate the power of the fire dragon from its presence . She
did not doubt that Daren could overcome this fire dragon.
But it was only a Water Blade!
There wasnt any difference compared to the Water Blade she could cast. How was it possible
how was it possible
She looked dazedly as the balls of fire flew.
Zuo Mo noticed Nan Yues expression and recalled that he had this follower. He explained,
You have to look at the structure of the fire dragon. It was made from seven interlocking fire
yao arts. If you can find the crux of this kind of yao art, it really saves energy.
There wasnt time to say more. A lightning arrow shot in front of Zuo Mo.

Zuo Mo unhurriedly raise a finger, and a transparent water ball appeared in front of him.
Little Yao ArtWater Ball!
The lightning entered the Water Ball. Countless arcs of electricity sparked and crackled on the
surface of the water ball.
There is no trick to this. Just respond quickly, Zuo Mo flicked the Water Ball covered in layers
of electricity and said sedately. When casting little yao arts, the most basic point is speed.
Before his words landed, countless water grasses in the surroundings suddenly and violently
headed over!
Zuo Mo flipped his hand and a fire dragon that was just the same as the one before swam around
the two of them. Everywhere it passed, the water grasses turned to dust.
You have to learn and use
He appeared to have the mannerisms of a master, and was very composed. He enjoyed Nan Yues
awestruck gaze, and his ego was very satisfied.
What Zuo Mo did not know that his three continuous attacks seemed to rouse the silent prison
battlefield out of its slumber.
Translator Ramblings: Zuo Mo is very ignorant but it is not his fault. Who expects to be pulled
into a completely different culture without their permission? Nan Yue continues her education by
a half-educated Zuo Mo. It is the blind leading the blind except Zuo Mo is being led by someone
who isnt but still likes seeing him trip.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Forty Six The PrisonBreaking Battle
This chapter has been brought to you by me, and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter Three Hundred and Forty Six The Prison-Breaking Battle
Nan Yues cousin really looks weird, the tree yao waved its branches and spouted words like a
spring spouting water, doesnt look anything like Nan Yue. From a glance, you can see he isnt a
good yao. How can Nan Yue have a cousin like this, it really is strange
A cold snort came from the ball of flowers floating in the air, Shut up!
Dont you find it strange? The tree yao was slightly puzzled. How can you not find such a
strange matter strange? Dont you find it strange
Chi felt a headache and shouted lowly, Shut up!
The tree yaos words stopped. He obediently closed his mouth. He didnt dare to disregard
Teachers words. After being silent for a moment, he really couldnt stop himself and murmured,
Teacher, dont you find it strange
Everyone wanted to faint.
Chi didnt know whether to laugh or cry. The tree yao was the descendant of one of his friends. If
he had the chance, he would always take the tree yao along. But this guy was a chatterbox, and
had really strong sense of curiosity. If he was attracted by something, he definitely would not let
it be.
The prison battlefield is up ahead! Chis topic changed as he pointed at the front to try to
deflect this guys attention.

As expected, the tree yaos attention turned to the prison battlefield. So this is the prison
battlefield!
The other yao didnt feel much. Several of the yao in this group had already gone through the
prison battlefield already. After entering Vast Water Clear Skies, many people would give it a try.
Even if they didnt have the strength, they wouldnt actually lose their lives in the prison
battlefield, they would only be minorly wounded. If they were lucky, not even a hair would be
damaged.
Little yao with guts liked to explore the prison battlefield. The yao arts in the prison battlefield
were a few fractions stronger than what was in other areas, and were suited for real combat. Also,
if they wanted to enter the next prison, they must go through the prison battlefield.
Go, lets go in. Chi saw the tree yao was attracted to the prison battlefield and released a
breath. He hurriedly took the yao in.
Entering the prison battlefield, the scenery instantly changed. The tree yao waved its branches
and said emotionally, It is such a strange place
But no one paid attention to him at this time. The other yao had come to the prison battlefield
before and their nerves tensed.
Teacher Chi was beside them, but he was responsible for teaching and guidance. Of course, in
moments of danger, he would act and protect them. However, they all still hoped to become
Teacher Chis student, and naturally did not slack off. All of them paid attention as they started to
defend.
Due to their high numbers, the pressure was much less, and they appeared to be at ease.
All of you, spread out, Chi said in a deep voice.
Hearing this, the yao instantly spread out, and entered their own battle modes. The prison
battlefield was a place to practice for real combat. In here, slacking off and short-cuts gave no
benefits.
Yao arts successively came at them. All the yao were one hundred and twenty percent alert as
they carefully responded.
The fire dragon is a commonly used fire yao art, and has pretty good powerful. It will be
suitable for your use for a long time. The most important place of this kind of fire yao art is its
structure. Different structures will form different fire dragons. Like this fire dragon, it is made
from six different little yao arts. Oh, not a bad combination.
Chi casually stopped a fire dragon, and reviewed it calmly.
It needs you to be very familiar with little yao arts. Nan Yue is very outstanding on this point.
You need to learn from her.
When the other yao heard this, they worked even harder. Clearly, Chis praise of Nan Yue
motivated them.

Do not copy these yao arts.


Zuo Mos words shocked Nan Yue. She couldnt help but say, Why not? Arent these yao arts
good?
Three lights flew out of Zuo Mos hand like three sharp sword energies. The entered a mountainlike lightning cloud. In the blink of an eye, the lightning cloud brimming with astonishing
primary lightning was like a bubble that popped and disappeared. Nan Yues eyes almost fell out
as she watched.

Yao arts are full of innumerable transformations. There are five hundred kinds of the most basic
little yao arts. This is unique among all cultivation methods. How many yao arts are there now?
No one . oh, no yao knows. But in Vast Water Clear Skies, there is no less than ten
thousand kinds. If you just copy, you will forever be led by the nose by other people, and be
exhausted by the pursuit. It is very simple, you will never finish learning!
It was the first time that Nan Yue heard such a daring way of thinking. She listened extremely
carefully and was afraid of missing a word.
We will not copy them, we will deconstruct them. Zuo Mos tone was faint and his attitude
calm. With the flick of a finger, the yao art heading towards him turned to dust as though it was
an example of his perspective.
The number of yao art permutations is innumerable but there are patterns to be found. What we
need to do is to find their patterns. When we find their patterns, you will be able to create yao
arts that belong to you. And how do we grasp the patterns hidden behind the multitude of
variations of yao arts?
Deconstruction! Nan Yue blurted out.
Right, how did it go? The person that understands you the best will forever be your enemy and
not your friend. This phrase also works with yao arts. Oh, we need to first be the enemy of the
yao arts.
Nan Yue understands! Nan Yue felt like she was filled with awareness, her face flashing with
light. There had never been a moment like this when she was so aware that she had clearly
grabbed the pulse of destiny!
The respect and awe in Nan Yues eyes made Zuo Mo feel as pleasurable as though he was in a
hot spring. In the sea of consciousness, Pu Yao couldnt help but mock, Youre pretty good at
learning and selling at the same time.
But he clearly underestimated the thickness of Zuo Mos face. This guy snickered and said
proudly, Right, I feel the same.
Pu Yao finally remembered Little Mo ge was someone that could tolerate everything. Talking
about face with him was never as good as talking about jingshi.
His happy mood assisted Zuo Mos performance. His hands flew and streamed. No matter how
powerful the yao art was, none of them could get within thirty zhang of him.
Just as Zuo Mo was having fun playing, the surroundings suddenly became silent. All the yao
arts seemed to have disappeared.
Silence, a deathly silence. All the river flows became silent.
Zuo Mos hairs on end.

The sudden stop of the prison battlefield bewildered Chis students who stared at each other.
Chi made a light sound and his eyes brightened as they widened. Prison-breaking battle? You
guys will get a great spectacle today!
Prison-breaking battle! all the students exclaimed in shock. Prison-breaking. Most of the yao
who entered the Ten Finger Prison had heard of it. But most only heard of it. It was more like a
legend.
Prison-breaking battle. It referred to the prison battlefield that had detected an enemy that could
pose a threat to it. It would then use the power of the entire prison battlefield to deal with the
enemy.
Prison-breaking battle, creation after destruction.

If a yao won this ferocious prison-breaking battle, Vast Water Clear Skies would be
reconstructed.
Vast Water Clear Skies had been created three hundred years ago when a great yao skilled in
water yao arts had completed the first prisons prison-breaking battle.
Those that could break the prison had a certain connection to power, but that was not the definite
trigger. Otherwise, there wouldnt have been so many powerful great yao that went through Vast
Water Clear Skies without activating the prison-breaking battle.
Today, someone had activated the prison-breaking battle!
Exclamations of shock sounded in the prison battlefield. They all understood what the unusual
scene in front of them meant.
The news that the prison-breaking battle was activated spread with astounding speed. Every yao
in Vast Water Clear Skies was disturbed. Like a tide, they flooded towards the prison battlefield.
At the same time in the second prison that was neighbouring to the first prison, many yao raised
their heads with shocked expressions. Immediately after, numerous figures flashed towards the
door of the prison with astounding speed!
Prison-breaking battle!
The prison-breaking battle that had not appeared for three hundred years!

Daren Nan Yues voice was shaky. She looked with fear at the deathly silent prison
battlefield.
You have to remember not to lose your calm at any time. The more you panic, the quicker you
die on the battlefield.
Darens words caused shame to appear on Nan Yues face. Yes!
If she was so timid, how could she follow Daren in the future?
The terror inside decreased greatly. She raised her small face with a determined expression.
What she didnt know was that Zuo Mos entire scalp was prickling at this moment. He had rich
battle experience. Even though the surroundings were silent and motionless, but the dangerous
presence was rising.
Pu, what is happening? he carefully asked Pu Yao.
Pu Yao narrowed his blood red eye, and lightly said, Theres only this much stuff in the prison
battlefield, what situation can happen?
There really isnt anything? Zuo Mo didnt quite believe it.
Pu Yaos face was mocking. This is just the first prison.
Hearing this, Zuo Mo changed his thinking. That was right, Vast Water Clear Skies was only the
first prison of the Ten Finger Prison. If it really was so dangerous, there wouldnt be so many
people. He hadnt done anything. If something unfortunate happened, it wouldnt be his turn.
Comforting himself so, his heart was reassured.
Before the stone in his heart landed, a strange power passed over, and Nan Yue disappeared from
beside him.
All the other yao in the entire prison battlefield except for Zuo Mo were sent by this mysterious
power out of the prison battlefield.
Many of the yao that were transported out had confused expressions, but when they saw the area
surrounding the prison battlefield was filled with yao, they all shook.
But right now, no yao paid attention to them. Everyones gaze was staring into the prison
battlefield.

The rivers that followed constantly through the void of the prison battlefield, the lightning balls,
the fire clouds, they had all disappeared. They could clearly see that figure that was at the very
center of the prison battlefield.
All the yao widened their eyes. A yao that could activate the prison-breaking battle definitely had
a limitless future!
Chi and his procession of yao stared so much their eyes almost dropped out. The tree yao
excitedly waved the tree branches. Strange cousin! Its the strange cousin!
Light flashed through Chis eyes as waves were created inside his heart. The yao that had
activated prison-breaking battles before were all great yao that had each left a deep mark on
history.
This person of average appearance was so powerful?
When Nan Yue was sent out, Zuo Mo instantly understood the situation was targeting him.
Since the other had such powers, they definitely wouldnt give him the chance to leave the prison
battlefield.
He had been tricked!
Someone dared to trick ge!
Zuo Mos anger rose, and his stubbornness came out. The tendons in his neck bulged. His
features enraged, he pushed up his sleeves, and murderously gritted his teeth as he uttered Dong
Fu slang.
Come on, baby![i]
[i] This part was the Chinese homonym of Come on, baby, and the baby part was (bei bi)
which means low, contemptible.
Translator Ramblings: Pu Yao is totally fine with seeing Zuo Mo in trouble if it isnt dangerous.
Zuo Mo doesnt understand what is going on but no one can trick ge!

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Forty Seven One Battle!
This chapter has been brought to you by me and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter Three Hundred and Forty Seven One Battle!
Zuo Mo was filled with battle intent, his blood boiling. His back arched forward, his hands
placed in the air in front of his chest with his ten fingers spread out like a wild beast waiting to
pounce. He gave others the feeling of danger! This was the starting position of Great Day mo
physique for physical battle which he instinctively used.
The surroundings were deathly silent, and caused Zuo Mos concentration to be highly focused.
He was using all of his consciousness. Recently, his consciousness had greatly advanced. He had
never used so much spiritual power at once as he was doing today. The usual fishing would
always wring out his spiritual power, but the expenditure of little yao arts was very low so the
process had been a drain of small increments.
The movement this time was without keeping anything back, and he was going all in.
The lively spiritual power wrapped around his body. Everything in the surroundings was quickly
drawn out in his mind, and was as clear as it was a mirror image.
The temperature of the surroundings rose, and the heated air grew heavy. The dark and deep void
started to light up, and the surroundings turned crimson red.

Zuo Mo was motionless. His eyes narrowed, the presence of his entire body was quietly
restrained inside. He was like a statue.

How many has it been years since someone activated a prison-breaking battle? He doesnt look
very good, really a monster! Leng Yue said emotionally to his good friend Chang Zheng. The
two of them had charged from the second prison to Vast Water Clear Skies. Before they even
took a breath, they saw Zuo Mo standing alone in the prison battlefield.
Leng Yue wore a black silk robe, the sleeves of which were woven with gold silk into complex
patterns. His figure was upright and handsome. He was from a famous family, and was usually
very lofty. Pride and condescension had already deeply entered his bones. However, he was not
stupid. Facing the monster that was in the prison battlefield right now, he had no assets to be
proud of.
Individuals that could activate the prison-breaking battle were all monsters that stood above all
monsters. If they could continue being monsters, after one or two centuries, they would even
have the qualifications to enter the Council of Elders.
Chang Zheng stared unblinkingly, and tsked in wonder. As expected, a monster. I cannot even
feel his presence. Just this method of concealment is nothing our generation can do. He then
said suspiciously, But this position why does it look like a mo skill
Leng Yue was from a famed family and naturally knew more. He examined for a long time
before he nodded. It is a mo skill!
Cultivating yaomo together? That is ridiculous! Chang Zhengs face was full of disbelief.
Leng Yue was also filled with doubt. He did not dare to make a conclusion, and could only say,
Well know later.
The two yao stared unblinkingly at the prison battlefield. They had gone through Vast Water
Clear Skies battlefield in the past. With their power, they naturally had not had a hard time. They
were very curious. Was the legendary prison-breaking battle really that powerful?
At this time, the prison battlefield started its first wave of attack.
The red light seemed to be pulled by an invisible power. They came from all directions, drawing
out lines of dazzling red light as they gathered into a red mark with astounding speed.
The red mark of light dramatically expanded. An enormous ball of fire instantly floated about
one hundred zhang from where Zuo Mo was. The crimson red flames continuously spat its fiery
tongues. Rich fire elemental power spread following the waves of heat. Zuo Mo felt he was
situated in a large dan cauldron, and it was hard to endure the baking.

The eye-catching red light, the meteor-like red energy, the burning ball of fire, the flickering
tongues of flames, they all caused the yao looking in from the outside to have expressions of
praise.
Qian Liu Daren of peerless water yao arts, I hadnt expected his fire yao arts to be so
domineering. Chang Zhengs expression was full of admiration.
Leng Yue also had a face full of respect, and said, Supposedly, Qian Liu Daren was only twenty
eight when he broke the prison and remade it into Vast Water Clear Skies. It really is worthy of
respect and terrifying that he could set down the name of a prison when he was twenty eight.

Ah, if there wasnt someone having a prison-breaking battle now, we would not have the good
fortune to watch. Chang Zheng suddenly smiled and said, I wonder what Qian Liu Daren
would think if he knew his Vast Water Clear Skies is being challenged?
The enormous ball of fire burned and spread a scorching presence. The fire element power that
was able to wound the mind splashed in waves against everything in the surroundings. Zuo Mos
figure under the fireball was as minuscule as an ant.
He seems to have confidence, Leng Yue suddenly said.
Of course. Those who are average cannot activate the prison-breaking battle. Chang Zheng had
a matter-of-fact expression but then his tone changed. However, the fire yao arts left by Qian
Liu Darens impression in the Ten Finger Prison is not so easy to deal with.
Who are you helping? Thats like not saying anything at all. Leng Yue rolled his eyes.
Haha, were here to see the spectacle, the spectacle! Chang Zheng laughed awkwardly.
The two spoke quickly, but their eyes were unmoving as they locked onto Zuo Mo in the field.

Zuo Mo narrowed his eyes and only showed a narrow crack. No one could see that there seemed
to be a cold and eerie fire burning soundlessly in the depths of his eyes.
The open arms, the spread fingers, the slightly curved figure, they all give the yao a feeling that
he was planning to hug this fatal and tyrannical ball of fire!
Zuo Mo was not nervous at all.
The burning and fatal presence given off by the enormous ball of fire in front of him did not
cause any ripple in his heart.
Of the five elements, the fire element was his most familiar element after water. From the first Li
Water Sword Scripture, to the Golden Crow Fire after that, he was an expert at playing with fire.
The fireball in front of him was somewhat similar to the fireball that Pu Yao had once
demonstrated to him. In the beginning, Zuo Mo had encountered difficulties when he was
comprehending the Li Water Sword Scripture. When Pu Yao taught him, he had also created an
enormous ball of fire.
This familiar scene made his mind go slightly astray, but it was only a sliver. His body naturally
entered battle mode. He no longer was that inexperienced Wu Kong Sword Sect disciple. After
so many battles, he sensitively caught the opportunity.
He attacked first.
In the void, he stepped forward and then disappeared from the view of the yao.
The strange step stirred exclamations of shock. What the yao were even more shocked about was
his action. To charge straight at the ball of fire, wasnt that just going to find death? This fireball
was formed from almost all the power of the entire prison battlefield. The fire element power
contained within it reached a terrifying level. If he was touched by any of the streaks of flame, he
most likely would not be able to retreat withhis body intact.
The fireball seemed to felt the threat. The tongues of flame rose, and crimson red whips of fire
shot at Zuo Mo. In the void, the fire element power reached a horrifying level.
Sweat rolled down Chis forehead. The density of fire element power in the prison battlefield
made him, someone skilled in fire yao arts, feel his heart speed up.
Zuo Mo stepped out of the void, his steps not slowing. He stepped forward and seemed to step
into the void again.
Without knowing it, a faint layer of gold covered his legs

The bursting tongues of fire furiously leapt at Zuo Mo, and he was almost struck a few times.
There was only the difference of a few hairs. Such a risky scene made Nan Yues face pale and
she almost shouted a few times.
Zuo Mos expression was indifferent as though he did not detect the danger. His steps were like a
stroll, at ease and calm.
The crowd of yao watching did not lack those who had knowledge. Their expressions changed.
None of them had seen such a strange walk before. Leng Yue and Chang Zheng felt their bodies
freeze as their eyes shocked shock.
As all the yao were shocked by Zuo Mos steps, no one noticed layer of faint light on Zuo Mos
hands.
With each step, the light on Zuo Mos hand would become slightly brighter.
When Zuo Mo made his twelfth step, the light on his two hands was so thick it was almost
tangible and could flow like liquid.
What was this?
The yaos eyes were unconsciously attracted to the light covering both of Zuo Mos hands. They
were filled with curiosity
Everyone knew this was Zuo Mos killing move. No matter how profound his steps were, they
could not defeat the fireball. He still needed to rely on an offensive yao art. The multicolored
light created multicolored afterimages during Zuo Mos high speed movement. As Zuo Mo
flickered in and out, it became broken sections of a rainbow.
Killing move!
It definitely was a great killing move!
Everyone widened their eyes and didnt dare to blink.
Nan Yue suddenly covered her mouth and muffled the shout that had reached her mouth, her eyes
were filled with disbelief.
Heavens, how how was it possible?
That was

Zuo Mos mind was almost icy cold, as he made another step, as he went closer to the fireball,
continued to rise in temperature. His presence continuously grew with his steps.
His figure slightly paused as it went against how people normally moved.
Thirty zhang away, the domineering and scorching heat hit his body as though it was incinerating
him.
He crouched down slightly and both of his hands dropped to his side.
The slightly lowered eyelids were completely open now, revealing the calmness in the depths of
his eyes. It was like cold butter thrown into the fire. The flame exploded. The boiling battle
intent burned every one of Zuo Mos nerves.
All the tongues of fire of the fireball flooded towards Zuo Mo, the fire twisted into a burning sea.
The continuously rising presence reached a peak. He suddenly raised his face.
Kill!
The rampaging and violent killing essence suddenly shot outwards with Zuo Mo as the center.
Zuo Mo jumped up into the air like a flying sword leaving its sheath. Carrying a patch of
multicolored light, he struck towards the sea of flame in front of him!
Among the sea of flames that covered the sky, a multicolored smear carved out a straight and
blinding line, causing sparks to fly like the rain.

Among the sparks, the multicolored light struck the ball of fire!
All of the domineering and explosive presence, all of the battle intent, it all seemed to enter the
ball of fire along with this blow.
The prison battlefield paused.
Everything paused.
Time seemed to have stopped.
Pia.
A sound like an eggshell being cracked. The domineering and terrifying crimson red ball lightly
exploded and turned to a handful of sparks.
The sparks were like rain and mist as they fell. Zuo Mos figure floated in and out of view. The
presence on his body disappeared, the multicolored light on his hands also disappeared.

Silence, deathly silence.


For ten whole breaths, no one made any sound. Only ten breaths later did the yao seem to
suddenly wake up. Exclamation rose and fell.
Who saw what yao art that was?
Too powerful!
Havent seen it before. Definitely a secret yao art! Such a weirdo! I wonder which hidden
family he came from!
Worth it! Didnt come for nothing! It is so worth it
None of the yao in the surroundings could keep their calm. The crowd was very excited.
Among the yao, Nan Yue tightly covered her mouth. There was only one thought repeating in her
mind.
That was
The discussion in the surroundings seemed to be far away to her ears. No one could have thought
that among all of these many yao, only she understood that move.
That was
Little yao arts!
Translator Ramblings: Not really too much plot in this chapter, everything is action. Nan Yue is
the lone mind that understands among this group.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Forty Eight Scheming
This chapter has been brought to you by me, and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter Three Hundred and Forty Eight Scheming
Little yao art, a sixteen little yao art combination!
The rainbow colored light lingered in Nan Yues pupils. She had almost stopped breathing.
Sixteen kinds of little yao art versus the fire yao art of Qian Liu Daren. The difference between
the two was like comparing a child and a battle hardened warrior.
Standing aloofly among the rain of light, there was no joy on Zuo Mos face, nor smugness.
Nan Yue suddenly felt that Daren had a great presence.

Leng Yue and Chang Zhengs were shocked, but the shock quickly turned to extreme passion and
excitement. No one knew what Qian Liu Darens fire yao art was called, but no one cared at this
moment.
Clear Skies Qian Liu was a name that was legendary for the yao.
They had not personally seen how Qian Liu Daren completed the prison-breaking battle three
hundred years ago, how he had reformed Vast Water Clear Skies, they could only imagine
from hearing the tales and histories. Yet today, another yao had activated the prison-breaking
battle. A new legend was being created front of them.
Zuo Mos grand and dazzling lights and the fierce combat in the battle just now made every yao
present feel their blood boil.
A new legend was going to begin!
Even if this yao of unknown origins was so young that it was almost outrageous, no one doubted
his power at this time.
Do you recognize his movement technique? Chang Zheng impatiently asked. Leng Yues eyes
and knowledge were just a bit higher than his.
Leng Yues face was serious. Its a bit like [Nether Stepping Movement Art] but his feet have a
golden aura. This does not match the records of [Nether Stepping Movement Art]. It is very
strange. It must be another high level yao art.
The organization of yao arts was chaotic and complex because too many kinds of yao arts existed
throughout history. Additionally, after the thousand year war, yao arts gradually entered a phase
of rapid development. All kinds of novel and wondrous yao arts appeared, and this also became a
huge problem for the ranking system of yao arts.
As the large yao art houses developed, the house-taught yao arts gradually replaced the clantaught yao arts. Due to this, the yao art rankings finally settled.
From the most basic little yao arts, to low-level yao arts, to intermediate-level yao arts, to the
astonishing high-level yao arts, to the even stronger earth-level yao arts, and then to the sky-level
yao arts. This complete yao art system was constructed. This system had an extremely strict
division. It wasnt just based just on the power of the yao arts but included such things as the
difficulty of casting, and the amount of spiritual power used. There was a special bureaucracy
whose purpose was to judge the levels of yao arts.
Chang Zhengs expression was solemn. Can you guess which yao art house it is from?
Cant see it.
The use of clan-taught yao arts had declined. Even the young yao that came from the large clans
mostly chose to enter a yao art house to learn. The famed clan yao arts of the past had been
gradually merged into the yao arts of the various yao art houses, and became the ultimate skill of
those houses.
Sky-level arts mostly existed in the legends. Almost all the experts, including all of the Sky Yao,
had died in the great battle thousands of years ago. The earth-level and sky-level yao arts they
knew were lost in the rivers of history.
What the largest yao art houses competed with were the high-level yao arts. These were the
trademark arts of each yao art house. There were similarities between the basicand intermediate
yao arts between some yao art houses but it was rare that high-level yao arts were the same
between houses. Each yao art house was extremely careful when passing down their houses
high-level yao art. Only the most accomplished and core disciples had the qualifications to learn.
This kind of level is probably also the peak if its in the Great Ten. Chang Zheng threw his
confusion to the back of his mind and praised.

Leng Yue asked in response, Great Ten? These three hundred years, how come not even one of
the students of the Great Ten activated the prison-breaking battle?
True, Chang Zheng nodded his head, this yao art house is going to be famous. It may even
enter the Great Ten.
This guy may not be from a yao art house. Leng Yues words were shocking.
Not from a yao art house? Chang Zheng turned his face in shock. You mean that hes using
clan-taught yao arts?
Maybe. Ling Yues gaze focused. Look at his battle method. Does he look like one from a yao
art house?
Chang Zheng pondered this and an expression of agreement grew. Since you mentioned it, I
also had this feeling. It doesnt seem like the stuff from yao art houses. He responded very
quickly and said with a smile, I wonder which yao art house will benefit this time.
Clan-taught yao arts like this were what the large yao art houses desired the most. In the great
war thousands of years ago, the yaomo had lost, and greatly suffered. Countless kinds of
knowledge had been lost. The lost knowledge had formed through countless years, and
represented the highest level of yao arts. They were the brightest pearl of the entire yao art
system.
The yao arts that were developed after the war had developed mostly from the remaining basic
yao arts and intermediate yao arts. That was the origins of most high-level yao arts. But higher
ranks? The legendary earth and sky-level?
A few thousand of years was too short for them to be redeveloped. Other than the top yao art
houses, the great majority of yao art houses only had high-level yao arts. The yao art houses that
possessed earth and sky-level yao arts had not gained them through their own power, but were
just luckier.
The clan-taught yao arts of the past were the best part of the ancient yao arts. If they could regain
these clan-taught yao arts, it would be of great help in understanding higher-level yao arts. Of
course, there were differences between clan-taught yao arts. What they needed the most were
those outstanding clan-taught yao arts.
If this yao really was using clan-taught yao arts, he was a tasty morsel for any yao art house.
[Nether Stepping Movement Art] was a high-level yao art and one of the trademark arts of the
Dragon River Yao Art House.
The amazing scene just now, in Leng Yues perspective, this movement art was not worse than
the [Nether Stepping Movement Art] of the legend. Even he couldnt help start scheming.
Behind the back of each yao art house was the shadow of some large clans. When the thousand
year war had just finished, due to the fact that the peak and high level individuals of each clan
had been lost in high levels, it lead to the loss of large amounts of yao arts. Many clans
encountered difficulties in their cultivation paths, and lacking guidance, they had to openly
discuss and study with other clans. This marked the rise of the yao art houses.
As the Council of Elders supported and administered it, the yao art houses became even more
popular. Now, a yao art house was like a rope that tied several, or even a dozen, clans together to
become a singular being with a common purpose. This was also why the clans were willing to
share their clan yao arts.
In the Ice Day Yao Art House that Leng Yue attended, the Western Mountain Cold Clan occupied
a seat on the Council of Elders of the yao art house.

If he could recruit this yao into the Ice Day Yao Art House, then he would have contributed
greatly! He wouldnt just be able to receive the top art of the house, [Cold Day Ice Art], but
maybe his clan would get another sea on the art houses Council of Elders.
Even though Leng Yue was usually proud and cold, his breathing sped up when he thought about
it. He wrung out his mind thinking of what conditions he could use to persuade the other. He felt
lucky about this prison-breaking battle occurred in the first prison. Otherwise, even thinking
about recruitment was a delusion.
At his side, Chang Zheng looked with shock at his good friend. But then he thought and
understood.
However, he did not think well of Leng Yues plan. In his view, those that could activate the
prison-breaking battles were the top geniuses of each era. The two of them could see this, would
the other yao art houses not? In terms of competitive power, how could Ice Day Yao Art House
compare to those top yao art houses?
His gaze swept around, and found that there were more yao around now than before. He was
very calm. He wasnt from a large clan, just a normal student.
Light continuously flashed. In the blink of an eye, the surroundings were filled with yao.
This was really a spectacle!
Chang Zheng thought inside.
Nan Yue was still immersed in the grand battle and did not notice Teacher Chi drift next to her.
Seeing this, Chi could only cough.
The startled Nan Yue noticed Teacher Chi, and hurriedly bowed. Teacher Chi.
Oh, Nan Yue! Chis masculine face was filled by a smile, and he said intimately, The role of
the Chief Student Elder in the school is empty. Are you interested? You are very young, and it is
rare for you to have the strength you do now. With great power, you have to be brave and take on
responsibilities.
Nan Yue stilled where she stood. Chief Student Elder meant being the elder of all the students.
This was a role that every student dreamed about. The Chief Student Elder could receive the
guidance of all the elders in the entire Council of Elders of the yao art house. When they
graduated, they could enter the yao art house and take on a core role. Even though they were
students, their status would be much higher than normal teachers.
This role was far too important so in the last seven years, the Purple Lotus Yao Art House that
Nan Yue was in had kept its Chief Student Elder position empty.
Now Teacher Chi was telling her she could be Chief Student Elder?
She felt she was dreaming.
Taking a few deep breaths, Nan Yue tried to calm the excitement inside. This world changed so
quickly. A few days ago, she was working to become a student of a teacher. Now, the position of
Chief Student Elder was being offered to her.
All of this was so fantastical, and unrealistic.
But Nan Yue quickly calmed down. Her experiences of hardship caused her to understand
worldly matters better than normal students. The calm Nan Yue did not need to waste much effort
to understand Teacher Chis motivations.
Looking at the calm Nan Yue, Chi was slightly shocked. For the first time, he properly looked at
this student that didnt have outstanding talent. To be able to maintain calmness in the face of
such a great temptation, she wasnt average.
Maybe he had missed a good seed. Regret flashed through Chis mind but that dot of regret
quickly disappeared. The role of Chief Student Elder was far above anything he could promise.

However, he was also very clear if they wanted to compete for the mysterious male yao in the
prison battlefield, the only advantage the Purple Lotus Yao Art House had was Nan Yue.
Compared to an expert that could activate a prison-breaking battle, a position of Chief Student
Elder really was not anything. He believed those cunning and slippery elders of the house would
see this clearly.
If he could help bring this matter to a favorable conclusion, would his efforts be unrecognized?
He looked with burning eyes at Nan Yue.
Translator Ramblings: Some major plot expansion to make up for last chapter. Essentially, the
yao lost a great deal of knowledge but it has actually increased innovation. The problem is so
much knowledge has been lost it is taking them a long time to recover and they are technically
weaker than they had been before the thousand year war. Zuo Mo isnt going to be the answer to
this, hes a very weak yao with great potential and some skills but he cant make up for
thousands of years of knowledge lost (*cough* someone could be a great help but they arent
willing.) So we finally have the answer why the yao were so desperate in searching.
I have been slowly adding to the table of contents but the linkage tool in the editor crashes every
three links or so making this a slow process. Please be patient.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Forty Nine Rage
This chapter has been brought to you by me, and WanderingGummiofDoom.
Chapter Three Hundred and Forty Nine Rage
Nan Yue shook her head and said, I need to first ask Cousins opinion.
Chi knew his intentions had been seen. His old face reddened slightly but it quickly turned back.
Of course, of course.
The tree yao, the flower yao and the other students looked from a distance as Chi talked with
enthusiasm on his face and all of them were shocked without an exception.

The sparks fell like rain.


Zuo Mo widened his eyes as he warily observed the surroundings. The scenery in the
surroundings had not changed, but the feeling of danger did not lessen, but had become even
more oppressing.
Had that just been a warm-up?
Zuo Mo felt no fear. Just the opposite, an excited battle desire filled his body. He wanted the
upcoming fight to be even fiercer!
The exquisite sixteen little yao art combination had dismembered the others fireball in an
instant. What really excited him was that he had actually used one of the transformations of the
Great Day mo physique, [Light Void Wings], in his crisis.
What [Light Void Wings] strengthened was speed, to become as fast as lightning. It was the first
transformation Zuo Mo learned. When he had used it just now, he had a great idea. He
suppressed the formation of the pair of golden wings, and diverted the power to his legs. It
actually produced the effect of stepping through the void.
So [Light Void Wings] could be used like this!

Zuo Mo suddenly felt there was light, and was greatly inspired. Since the power of the Light
Void Wings could be pushed to his legs, what would happen if he pushed it to his arms? Or any
other place? He was even considering, could the other transformations be used like this?
He was yearning to try and filled with the intent to battle.
He had really made a profit today!

What he did not know was that Pu Yaos eyes almost dropped to the floor in his sea of
consciousness.
In his view, the new change of the Light Void Wings was somewhat wondrous but it was not
enough for him, a great Sky Yao, to be shocked. What he felt was inconceivable was the use of
mo skills in the Ten Finger Prison!
This was not possible!
He almost shouted.
Ten Finger Prison was constructed from yao arts, and only the power of yao arts could be used in
the Ten Finger Prison. No matter if it was mo skills, or xiu spells, they definitely could not appear
in the Ten Finger Prison. Even the first prison, Vast Water Clear Skies, was not an exception!
But what happened in front of him completely broke this rule that had existed for countless
years.
What what was this?
Strangely, a thread of fright appeared in Pu Yaos heart.

Zuo Mo did not know of the thread of fright floating in Pu Yaos heart, but even if he knew, he
would only snort and mock. He cultivated a variety of things, and did not have a bias towards
any kind of power, and was curious about them all.
Even more so, he didnt have the time to chat with Pu Yao. Even though the fireball had been
destroyed, but the dangerous presence filling the surroundings had not weakened but had
increased.
When the last spark fell, a change occurred.
In the void, a faint incorporeal shadow appeared. A heavy water element based power spread.
Glittering and transparent rivers of water criss-crossed as they appeared around him. Some were
fast, some were slow, some were clear like precious gems, some were as turbid as mud.
The prison battlefield seemed to have returned to its usual state.
Zuo Mos consciousness didnt dare to stay back and suddenly spread out.

A water arrow suddenly flew out of a river flow in front of him. This transparent water arrow
announced the start of battle.
Blue light suddenly exploded!
Numerous water yao arts flew out of the criss-crossing river flows. They covered the skies and
ground like a thunderstorm!

The yao in the surroundings changed expression. Even those experts that thought they were
skilled in water yao arts were so shocked they almost jumped up when they saw the scene.
This attack included three hundred and sixty one water yao arts, from the simplest water arrow,
the water bomb, to the combinations that formed water birds, water butterflies, to the higher level
water dragons and beasts. What was even more astounding was that each water bird seemed
almost alive, the transparent feathers extremely detailed.
The yao at this time finally knew what terrifying level Qian Liu Darens water yao arts had
reached!
Clear Skies Thousand Streams, awe-inspiring and terrifying!
Shocked, the faces of the yao became slightly intoxicated. Such beautiful water yao arts
definitely were peerless. As to Zuo Mo who had activated the prison-breaking battle, no one
looked at him again.
Maybe he was amazingly talented, maybe he was the successor to a mysterious yao art, but in
front of Qian Liu Daren, he was fated to lose his halo, he was fated to become as inconsequential
as a speck of dust.

Inside the battlefield, Zuo Mos expression changed drastically.


His vision was filled with the flooding blue sea that was made from the light of numerous water
yao arts. These glowing and beautiful water yao arts were of different shapes and various speeds,
but they all had the smell of danger.
The hairs on Zuo Mos body stood on end. Each water yao art was not difficult or complex for
him, but when three hundred and sixty one water yao arts came at the same time, he was
instantly in a life threatening predicament, and did not even have to room to dodge!
Incredible water yao arts!
The scent of death was so close. His face was slightly cold as though Deaths decaying face was
pressed against his with a strange smile.
His mind was blank, his limbs were wooden. All of his battle intent gone, all of his motivation
became fragile like glass in front of such a peerless attack, and was instantly shattered.
Zuo Mos body was frozen and unable to move a finger.
He could only looked dazedly at the ocean-like blue light rushing towards him. The almost
tangible water element power was pressing at his brows. He watched as he was going to be
swallowed by this vast ocean of blue light.
Damn it!
Zuo Mo suddenly shook and woke up from his dumbstruck state. What followed right after was
shame from the heart! He had actually been shocked by the enemys attack, so frightened that he
had lost all intent of rebelling!
Damn it!
Zuo Mos eyes suddenly turned bright red like two balls of flame. The cold blood in his body
suddenly boiled. Strong anger filled every part of his chest! He was furious because of his
weakness, he felt furious for losing his resolve!
Breaking through the hard ice, the erupting desire to battle, his anger and shame merged
together!
Zuo Mo instantly sank into a rage.

His eyes crimson red, in a raging Zuo Mos hands closed together and then opened. Hiss-crack, a
blinding lightning net appeared between his hands. The thin silver lightning snakes curved as
they swam. Thirty thumb-sized hard lightning bolts moved uncertainly in the lightning net.
[Yang Fiend Hard Lightning]!
If Zuo Mo was clear in mind at this time, he would be joyful at his improvement in the yao arts.
When he used the [Yang Fiend Hard Lightning] this time, the presence it gave was completely
different, and was very pressuring. No matter if it was the increase in spiritual power or his
understanding of the yao arts, all of it was completely on display through the [Yang Fiend Hard
Lightning] that he had used so many times.

A furious bellow suddenly sounded from inside the blue light.


Immediately after, a dot of silver energy suddenly lit up inside the blue light. Then this silver
energy became increasingly brighter and bigger!
What was this?
The yao watching were slightly shocked. They speculated on what kind of yao art this silver
energy was.
Boom boom boom
Sounds of explosions continued inside the thick blue light like explosions from the bottom of the
water.
But quickly, the faces of the yao who were more attentive were slightly weird. They found to
their shock that the sound of the explosions had changed starting from the tenth explosion. It was
not as deep and muffled, and was increasingly bright.
Was it
They couldnt help but show shock in their eyes.
The explosions were like thunder and rolled in waves.
Just as the yao were uncertain, an enormous sound exploded. Every yao felt the silver light turn
blindingly bright and their vision instantly turned to white.
When the light dissipated, and the eyes of the yao recovered to look at the battlefield clearly,
they instantly were amazed.
How how was it possible
In the battlefield, Zuo Mos body was covered in smoke and fire. He cut a very sorry figure.
But no yao laughed at him now. They looked in disbelief at Zuo Mo, their mouths unconsciously
sighing in shock. The yells of those young and beautiful female yao came in waves. Their
expressions were excited and uncontrollable.
Chi was dumbstruck. Just now, he had also lost himself in Qian Liu Darens water yao arts and
judged that Zuo Mo could not win, then he saw the hardy Zuo Mo standing in the battlefield.
Shocked, he had to sigh lightly. If before this battle, he had thought that Purple Lotus Yao Art
House had a chance of recruiting the other, after this battle, he understood that Purple Lotus Yao
Art house could not keep the other.
Deep respect and joy stemming from the heart showed in Nan Yues crystal-like eyes!
The yells of the female yao quickly infected the other yao. Even those people that usually did not
show their emotions now used all kinds of ways to vent the excitement inside.
In the last round, they saw the hope of Zuo Mos victory!
This was a prison-breaking battle!

The one that broke one of the prisons would be able to rename the prison they defeated!
This was an honor that each yao dreamed of, this was the beginning of a legend
Right now, this was happening in front of them. Such a lucky matter to be able to personally see
it. This was also why they could not maintain their calm, and were so excited!
The spectators were peerlessly excited. They used all kinds of methods to tell their friends and
family what was happening. The people that had started recording yao arts previously grinned up
to their ears as though they had won the lottery.

Just as every yao was excited, Zuo Mo opened his eyes in the battlefield.
The pure red eyes did not show any signs of dissipating.
Still in a rage, Zuo Mo turned and looked around like a wild beast.

The yao on the outside gradually calmed down. The criss-crossing rivers in the battlefield had
not disappeared. This meant that the prison-breaking battle had not finished. Qian Liu Daren
definitely left another move behind.
Just as the yao were speculating, they suddenly found the guy that was smoking in the battlefield
looked around as though he was searching for prey. He quickly walked murderously towards one
of the river flows. The abnormal movement in the battlefield instantly attracted all of the yaos
eyes. Some yao with good eyes even noticed that Zuo Mo seemed to be shouting something.
In the blink of an eye, Zuo Mo charged in front of a river flow.
The movement that Zuo Mo made immediately after caused the hearts of all the yao to stop.
Outside the battlefield, it was a deathly silence
he inserted his hand into the river flow in front of him.
This guy what did he want to do?
Translator Ramblings: Did you guys think that last chapter was the end of it? Were not done yet.
Insert evil laugh here.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Fifty You Dare Attack Ge!
This chapter has been brought to you by me and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter Three Hundred and Fifty You Dare Attack Ge!
The raging Zuo Mo seemed to be insane, growling from the deepest part of his throat like a
furious animal roaring.
You dare attack ge dare attack ge
you will definitely die
destroy you f***ers
..
Zuo Mo seemed to have been messed with. Angry, he searched for anything that he could attack.
He changed his reactive and defensive posture, and attacked head on!

Didnt the water yao arts fly out from these river flows?
Then he will flatten all of these river flows!
With both of his hands in the river flow he attacked, his fury and rage did not make him lose his
judgement, but heightened the sensitive intuition of a wild beast. In just that instant, the structure
of the river flow constructed of yao arts seemed to flashed across his mind like flowing water.
Without needing to think, he started to deconstruct it.
In his eyes, the enormous river flow was not any different than those rocks and flora he
previously deconstructed, just a little bit bigger in scale.
Who had left the impression of the river flows? What was Clear Skies Thousand Flow? Prisonbreaking battle?
What was that?
His eyes crimson red and only held the most primitive crazy desire for battle and stubbornness.
Deconstruction, deconstruction, complete deconstruction!
The river flow was more complex than any yao art he had deconstructed before, but Zuo Mos
attacking capabilities were far stronger in this moment than normal. His mind was
unprecedentedly focused, his reactions unusually sensitive and his intuition abnormally accurate!
The hands that were in the river flow swayed gently like reeds. The water flow was lit up with a
faint glowing like and had a blurry beauty.

The yao outside the battlefield were completely struck dumb by Zuo Mos actions.
Gulp!
Simultaneous sounds of swallowing. It was so clear and ear-piercing in the deathly silent Vast
Water Clear Skies. No one cared. Their eyes couldnt bear to stray from the figure in the
battlefield for a moment.
Of course they could see that Zuo Mo was like a provoked lion who had started to furiously
retaliate. Anyone who wasnt an idiot could see.
But
But didnt this guy know this was the prison battlefield that Qian Liu Daren set down? That was
Qian Liu Daren! The Qian Liu Daren who had the appellation of Clear Sky Thousand Flows, the
King of water yao arts, the Qian Liu Daren known in the world and had the qualifications to
enter the Council of Elders!
Shouldnt every yao be shaking and filled with admiration and respect in front of the marks such
a legend left behind?
But that furious figure in their field of vision was such an eyesore, so painful that they felt
disbelief.
Why was he angry? How could he be angry? That was Qian Liu Daren
Arrogance!
A term jumped out in the hearts of the yao. They could not believe that one of a younger
generation dared to use this kind of posture to face the prison battlefield that Qian Liu Daren had
set down! No, this was not facing off, this was a challenge!
That was right, this was a challenge!
Heavens! There was a yao who dared to challenge Qian Liu Daren!
All the yao were shocked by their thoughts and looked dazedly at the battlefield.


Nan Yue did not notice Teacher Chi whose mouth was wide and had a dazed expression. Her
black eyes were tightly locked onto the hands that Zuo Mo had immersed into the river flows.
When those hands lit up with the familiar glow, her eyes instantly became very wide.
Daren was using deconstruction!
For a whole moment, her mind was blank, but she shook and reacted. She did not know just how
shocked the expression on her face was. She pressed hard against her furiously beating heart, her
lips white from being bitten by her teeth as she stared at Darens hands!
As though that pair of hands had a kind of magnetism!
If Daren was really deconstructing Qian Liu Darens
She almost didnt dare to keep thinking, but she knew that the scene in front of her was a oncein-a-thousand chance. To be able to see Daren deconstructing the water yao art of Qian Liu
Daren, even if it was not successful, it was a chance that would only appear once in her lifetime!
The taste of blood suddenly spread inside her mouth. She instantly reacted. She had been too
nervous and bit through the skin of her lip. However, this little distraction caused her heart to
relax slightly. Out of the corners of her eyes, she noticed that people were casting recording yao
arts. She instantly thought, she was so stupid, she even forgot about the recording yao arts.
There were recoding yao arts among all the yao arts, and had the same purpose as the xiuzhes
mirage jade scrolls. However, the recording yao arts could be stored in the sea of consciousness
of the yao, and were more convenient.
She hurriedly cast a recording yao art to prepare for her to study slowly when she returned.
This entire distraction caused her to calm down greatly. She could finally act calmly. Watching
the lights on Darens hands, her mind quickly matched the corresponding yao arts. Very quickly,
the face that had just calmed down showed shock again.
Little yao arts!
All of them were little yao arts!
Nan Yue could clearly see. She was able to match the little yao arts to the dozen of lights that lit
up. When she realized this, she was truly stunned.
Did Daren plan on using little yao arts to deconstruct Qian Liu Darens water yao arts?
She had been amazed when Daren had used a little yao art combination to defeat Qian Liu
Darens fire yao art. Even though she felt shocked, but she could still accept it. Qian Liu Daren
was famed for his water yao arts, and no one had heard of his fire yao arts. But Daren was now
using little yao arts to deconstruct the water yao arts that Qian Liu Daren had become famous
for. This caused Nan Yues mind to short-circuit.

No matter if it was the disbelief of the yao outside the battlefield or Nan Yues blank mind, they
did not affect Zuo Mo inside the battlefield at all.
He wasnt deliberately using little yao arts, but it was because he only knew little yao arts. From
when he had started to deconstruct yao arts, Pu Yao had only taught him one method, to use little
yao arts. Pu Yao had also made little yao arts appear wonderful, and that any yao art could be
deconstructed with little yao arts etc etc.
This directly gave Zuo Mo the wrong impression, that all deconstruction should be done with
little yao arts.

Also, these river flows that were in front of him in his view were just some more complex yao
arts. So he did not hesitate in following his usual habits as he started to deconstruct it.
What he did not know was that Pu Yao in his sea of consciousness was gaping and wide eyed.
The usually cold and evil face was dumb, and his eyes had almost dropped out.
There was only one thought left in his mind, this guy was using little yao arts to deconstruct ..
This river flow was more complex than any object that Zuo Mo had encountered in Vast Water
Clear Skies. He was even able to see the deep laws of water yao arts within them.
However, there was no true difference in Zuo Mos eyes, it was just more complex.
When the raging Zuo Mo encountered a complex problem, his response once again was
unexpected to Pu Yao He didnt become more restless, but he was like a lion that met a
comparable rival. His desire to fight and compete expanded!
He had attacked first, and unconsciously became the proactive one.
The lights on his hands continuously changed, and the rate of change accelerated, so fast that it
was hard to decipher. The speed that his hand cast little yao arts continuously grew faster. In a
short time, it surpassed the fastest speed he could cast at.
Zou Mo did not notice this.
But he was clear that just this speed was not enough to deconstruct the river flow in front of him.
Zuo Mos repeated attacks of little yao arts instantly caused the river flow to retaliate. The river
flow in front of him suddenly lit up with faint light. In the void, it looked like a glowing belt of
light that floated.
Zuo Mo made a muffled grunt and his crimson red eyes became even more reddened.
Just now, five water yao arts had silently sneaked near him from the river flow. He had almost
been hit. The raging Zuo Mo became even more furious. Without another word, the rate of little
yao art changes on his hands increased another step.
The speed he was casting little yao arts now was two times his fastest speed!
The effect was immediately seen!
The peaceful river flow suddenly severely rippled. The river flow in front of Zuo Mo suddenly
shook fiercely like the twisted body of a snake in pain struggling fiercely.
In response the speed of the river flow also increased.
Numerous translucent schools of fish appeared in the river flow. These schools of fish all had
various shapes, their bodies transparent and made completely of water. If they were not seen
from at a close distance, it was very difficult to detect them.
There were so many schools of fish that they could not be counted. Once they were formed, they
furiously leaped towards Zuo Mos hands in the river flow.
His mind unprecedentedly focused, Zuo Mo instantly noticed the change of the river flow. But
his feeling was completely different than those of the spectators. These furiously charging
schools of fish, in his mind, were just new changes in the structure of the yao art making up the
river flow.
He didnt have any fear, and felt very excited because this meant that his deconstruction method
was right. The river flow had detected the danger which was the reason it retaliated so fiercely.
Come on, baby!
Zuo Mos blood rose to his head, his desire for battle rising to a peak. The little yao arts his
hands were casting were even more insane and became faster!
His two hands turned to one ball of intangible shadows. It was impossible to see his ten fingers
clearly. His consciousness and finger movements were unusually in sync at this moment. With

the smallest change of his finger, his consciousness would automatically make the corresponding
change.
Lights flew between his flying hands with astounding speed. Some of these various colored
lights headed straight for the schools of fish, some grouped together , and there were even
several dozen that welcomed the school of fish like a net.
Zuo Mo felt unspeakably great. The little yao arts seemed to have become an instinctive part of
him, and he had no problems casting them!
But he did not immerse himself in the feeling of pleasure. He only had one target in his eyes.
Deconstruction! Complete destruction!
He was going to completely deconstruct this damned river flow!
Dare attack ge!
Die die!
All die!
Faster! Even faster! Just a bit more!
The speed of the two hands seemed to suddenly decrease. If it was put in slow motion, one
would find the practiced motions seemed to pause, but this stop was very short, so short that
people would find it hard to detect.
After this extremely short pause, the two hands that had been blurry into one ball slowly
separated.
Two balls of shadow, two balls of furiously changing light balls!
The river flow that had been vibrating fiercely suddenly stopped. The body of the continuously
struggling glittering snaking river seemed to freeze in this moment!
The rushing river flows around, the spraying waves, they all stopped in the sky.
Time seemed to suddenly stop. All the river flows in the entire prison battlefield froze, silent and
motionless.
Translator Ramblings: Still not over, Lil Cliffy is in full force. Its not that Zuo Mo is trying to
be cool, he only knows so many yao arts to start with.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Fifty One Thousand Flow
Water Breath
This chapter has been brought to you by me, WanderingGummiOfDoom, and Brian.
Chapter Three Hundred and Fifty One Thousand Flow Water Breath
Pia pia pia
The dense sounds of corn popping rang without warning. With Zuo Mos hands as the starting
point, the explosions rapidly spread with astounding speed towards the two ends of the river
flow. When it reached the very end, the entire river flow was bombed into countless snowy-white
water foam by another even stronger explosion.
Zuo Mos figure was instantly swallowed by the wave of water foam.
The fine water foam was like snowflakes which had been blown free, sombre and beautiful.
This beautiful scene was forever imprinted upon the minds of the female yao that were watching.
The desolate and silent void, the sky full of snowflakes that had been thrown about; the scene
was picturesque.

It wasnt just the female yao. Even those male yao that only admired strength were shocked by
the scene in front of them.
However, they quickly broke free of their shock. The deathly silent Vast Water Clear Skies
seemed to be suddenly ignited. The soundwave instantly swallowed all of the yao. The yao could
not hear other peoples words, not even their own words, but they were so excited they could
only uncontrollably shout in awe.
Heavens, what did I just see? Who can tell me?
Too crazy! Too crazy!
Impossible, this is impossible! This is Qian Liu Darens water yao arts! Qian Liu Darens water
yao arts a male yao held his head as he looked dazedly at the battlefield and murmured.
Leng Yue and Chang Zheng looked soullessly at the battlefield. All the power they had seemed to
have been drained away. They didnt even have the strength to speak.
Compared to the disbelief and shock of the male yao, the female yao were very excited and
exuberant.
Oh, so handsome! Who knows who this guys is? I definitely have to pursue him. He is too
handsome, too intoxicating! A beautiful female yaos face was blushing as she spoke.
So beautiful, he definitely is a romantic yao! Another female yaos eyes were intoxicated, and
her face adoring.
The excited Nan Yue was instantly shocked inside and out. She shook, and the hairs on her body
began standing up. Then she couldnt help but think, if Daren heard this, she didnt know how he
would respond.
This thought flashed through her mind before disappearing. She suppressed her excitement, and
start to think back to the little yao arts that Daren had just cast. She was very familiar with little
yao arts. If she could see it, she definitely could quickly identify what kind of little yao art it was.
But the light that just covered Darens hands was completely different than the little yao arts that
she had seen before. Had Daren used new yao arts?
This suspicion flashed past her mind.
She shook her head. Intuition told her that Daren had still used little yao arts. She didnt
recognize those strange lights but they seemed to be slightly familiar.
Her eyes suddenly widened. She thought of a possibility.
If the speed that little yao arts were cast was fast enough, and broke through the normal barrier

The shock of Qian Liu Darens water yao arts being defeated was a far greater blow to all the
yao than the fireball being dissipated before. Qian Liu Daren had been young when he had set
Vast Water Clear Skies but the male yao in the battlefield certainly did not appear to be of a great
age.
Qian Liu Daren had established his name of Clear Skies Thousand Flow.
It was possible to predict that the mysterious male young yao in the battlefield would be known
throughout the world regardless of whether he finished the prison-breaking battle in the end.
Previously, everyone had felt Zuo Mo had been too arrogant to challenge Qian Liu Darens water
yao arts, but right now, many yao were seriously considering how probable it was that Zuo Mo
could win.
The short attack allowed them to understand the mysterious young male yao in the battlefield
had potential no less than Crystal Clear Thousand Flow.
This world was really crazy.

A legend that only existed in heroic stales was really happening in front of them. The feeling of
dreamy surrealism made many yao felt dazed for a moment.
Chis mouth was bitter as he grimaced. He knew his plan had failed. Chi couldnt predict what
level Nan Yues strange coursin would reach, but the power that he displayed now was not
lacking compared to the young Clear Skies Thousand Flow.
A genius whose future was limitless, was it even possible that the little Purple Lotus Yao Art
House could recruit him?
Strange Cousin isnt just strange, he had some talent! The tree yao carelessly praised as though
what he had just seen was a normal house battle.
Every single blossom on the flower yaos body flipped like numerous pairs of eyes
simultaneously rolling their eyes.
The other students at the side really could not resist themselves due to the tree yaos otherworldly
conduct. Shut up!
Before, they had felt that Zuo Mos conduct was full of ignorance about his own abilities, but
now, Zuo Mo had risen to a height that they could admire. In their view, even the House Elder of
the Purple Lotus Yao Art House might not have the qualifications to judge Zuo Mo. So what was
the tree yao? How could he speak so grandly?
The tree yao waved his branches in shock. Dont you also feel the same? So strange! Has some
skill! Really strange! How can you be more strange than the Strange Cousin
This time, even the other yao that had been preparing to mock saw the situation clearly and
shrunk back.
To argue with this deluded person was to find displeasure for themselves.
Before the fine snowy-white water foam had dissipated, there was another string of explosions
and the layers of snowy-white foam rippled. The attention of all the yao were attracted. The
explosions came endlessly. Thick snowy-white water foam completely covered the entire prison
battlefield. No yao was able to clearly see Zuo Mos figure.
But those explosions were enough to prove that Zuo Mo was still in the battlefield.

Zuo Mo charged in every direction, his eyes crimson red as he howled like a crazed wild beast. If
he found a river flow, he would instantly leap over.
Roused by the killing, he inexhaustibly searched for the next river flow, and continued to
deconstruct. He became even more practised and his efficiency increased drastically. After a
while, he was able to locate the weak points to break through before the first wave of counterattacks arrived. It was like solving problems. There were many kinds of problems, but as he
became familiar, his way of thinking became clear, and naturally became more at ease.
He completely had no intention of leaving face for the other. There was only one thought in his
mind.
You dare to attack ge, all die, die!
Destroy, destroy, completely destroy!
The criss-crossing river flows continuously exploded into snowy foam.
When the last flowing river was deconstructed, Zuo Mo widened his eyes among the snowy
foam turbulence and looked around. He wanted to find his next target. As his consciousness
expanded, he suddenly found that they all seem to have been resolved.
All resolved?

There was nothing left?


Fine cold water foam covered his face. The temperature of his boiling hot head couldnt help but
decrease. The anger inside seemed to have been pretty much vented. He showed an expression of
reluctance. He felt very exhilarated at doing deconstruction.
Just as he was enjoying it, the target disappeared.
Suddenly, a warm and gentle presence suddenly shot out of the void. The flying and moving
snowy-white foam seemed to have suddenly come to life. Their speed slowly decreased until
they were set in the void.
This presence could not be considered strong, there was no tyrannical presence that could
conquer the world. It was warm but not conspicuous, yet peerlessly weighty. It was like a
boundless ocean, so vast that it inspired awe. Under this warm and vast presence, threads of
vitality like the sun being born slowly rose up from the water.
As the presence appeared, it covered the entire Vast Water Clear Skies, and covered every yao in
Vast Water Clear Skies.
Is this water breath? Leng Yue reached out with his palm as though he wanted to grab this
presence, and murmured to himself.
Every yao who cultivated water yao arts had serious expressions at this moment. They spread out
their arms as though they wanted to throw themselves into this vast presence.
Yao like Chi who cultivated fire yao arts seemed to be sitting on pins. Without knowing it, a thin
layer of sweat covered their heads.
Water breath was one of the base sources of power comprehended after water yao arts were
cultivated to a very deep level. There were many kinds of little yao arts. Each yaos water yao
arts were different, and the water breath they would comprehend would vary. When yao that
comprehended water breath cast water yao arts, the power was much greater than normal water
yao arts.
As the cultivation deepened, the comprehension of water breath would continuously change. The
more the comprehension of water breath was perfected, the deeper the understanding of water
yao arts.
Comprehending water breath was the most important badge for every water art cultivating yao to
have a deep understanding. Countless yao who had spent decades cultivating water yao arts were
unable to comprehend water breath.
It was not strange or unexpected that Qian Liu Daren had comprehended water breath when he
was young. But that attributes that Qian Liu Darens water breath showed made every yao feel
awe.
Vast and full of life!
The more the yao was skilled in water yao arts, the faster their hearts beat. Shouldnt such high
level laws only appeared on those old yao that had cultivated for centuries?
Zuo Mo was also very shocked.
He was very familiar with water element spells. Even though water element spells and water yao
arts were completely different, but the base source of water did not change. This presence was
not dominating, but it was extremely pure.
Then an unprecedented feeling of anger filled every pore of Zuo Mos body.
He wasnt a greenhorn that just stepped onto the battlefield. When this water breath appeared, he
instantly found the terrifying power under its warm and peaceful surface.
It was like a basin of cold water was poured from his head to his toes, and cooled his heart.

Zuo Mo found that, in front of this vast presence full of life, he was so minuscule he was like a
speck of dust.
Minuscule like a speck of dust ..
A dot of light suddenly appeared in Zuo Mos eyes that were still bloodshot. It was like the spark
that lit up in the wild. He raised his face and looked forward as though he was going to penetrate
the thick white water foam with his eyes.
He suddenly smiled. With the mannerism of a peerless expert, filled with nonchalance.
The curve of his mouth increased until the corners of his mouth reached his ears and revealed the
snowy-white, neat and sharp teeth. The tone of his voice as it came out was completely opposite
his aloof appearance. It was gritted through his teeth, and was filled with undisguised ferocity.
Ge dislikes people that never commit the most!
The murderous Zuo Mo started his insane actions.
A golden light flashed on his back, and a pair of faint golden and transparent wings appeared.
Countless hair-thin gold threads climbed up from the bottom of Zuo Mos feet until they entirely
covered his legs. The golden threads suddenly tightened as though they tied up his legs.
Light Void Wings, Golden Crow Feet!
Immediately after, numerous hard lightning appeared and floated around Zuo Mo to form a thick
net of lightning.
Yang Fiend Hard Lightning!
One hundred and eight bolts of yang fiend hard lightning!
After finishing all this, Zuo Mo didnt raise his head, and his hands started to swipe and move
with difficulty!
Translator Ramblings: And it continues! Qian Liu literally means thousand flow, hence the name.
Im not sure if he changed his name to fit the arts that he is good at or his parents named him and
then he decided to use his arts to literally make thousands of water flows. Zuo Mos getting even
angrier he might burst a blood vessel soon.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Fifty Two The Reappearance
of Wasteland Sacrificial Art
This chapter has been brought to you by me, and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter Three Hundred and Fifty Two The Reappearance of Wasteland Sacrificial Art
A grey shadow flew out from Zuo Mos right hand.
The grey shadow was like a wasteland beast that had left its cage. It grew in size, and the deep
hissing it made shocked people down to their souls.
Archaic Wasteland Sacrificial Art!
The last joker in Zuo Mos hands was unhesitatingly thrown out at this moment.

In the sea of consciousness, Pu Yao had a complicated expression, one that Zuo Mo would think
was spectacular at this time. His expression was complex and showed a faint bitterness. The

Archaic Wasteland Sacrificial Art was the yao art that his teacher had created. Teacher had never
hidden any part of it from him. He could recite any part of the yao art, but even so, after one
thousand years, he still could not successfully cast this yao art.
Thinking back to his nickname of [Encyclopedia of Yao Arts], it seemed full of irony.
[Archaic Wasteland Sacrificial Art] looked simple but it actually was complex in many places.
Otherwise, how could Pu Yao still not be able to find the method to cast it after so many years
had passed? Last time, he had only wanted to try, and just gave a few words of guidance. He had
not expected Zuo Mo to successfully cast the art.
Today, Zuo Mos movements were still unpractised, but he had successfully cast it again. It was
enough to show that he had grasped the crux of this yao art, and his success was not just a matter
of luck.
What was an incredibly difficult yao art in Pu Yaos eyes was easily grasped by Zuo Mo and
without the other knowing its difficulty. Other than bitterness and mockery, he couldnt help but
admire Zuo Mos talent. Thinking back carefully, he found that inexperienced youth he had first
met was more average in all areas compared to the present.
This guys staying power was very strong!
He suddenly snickered. His consciousness was greater than Zuo Mos. The prison battlefield
could block Zuo Mos consciousness, but could not stop Pu Yaos consciousness. Pu Yao knew
everything about what was happening outside.
His mood instantly made a one hundred and eighty degree turn, especially when he saw the
spectacular expressions of the spectating yao.
Maybe it was pretty good to have such a student. Even though Zuo Mo was not a yao, and was a
human, but in the eyes of Pu Yao who usually did not tread the conventional path, this wasnt a
concern at all.
At some time in the future, he definitely had to urge Zuo Mo to go to the yao world.
It would be really fun to cause a storm!
Imagining the shocked expressions of those old guys, he couldnt help but roar with laughter.
In the sea of consciousness, Pu Yaos free yet somewhat insane laughter echoed.

Zuo Mo did not hear Pu Yaos laughter. His mind was focused as he cast the Archaic Wasteland
Sacrificial Art.
The simple yet authoritative presence was like a vicious wasteland beast slowly walking out of
the mist. The oncoming presence was suffocating!
Its movements were not fast, but were filled with perfect ease.
It suddenly stopped its movement.
The spectating yao felt their throats tighten as though a noose had been suddenly tightened
around their necks. They couldnt breath.
Terror suddenly jumped from their feet up, the bone-aching coldness spreading through their
entire bodies, their minds completely blank.
He seemed to see an ancient wasteland beast the size of a mountain looking down indifferently.
The mountain-like presence covered the world, and bore down like a mountain.
The yao lost their courage. They wanted to turn and run. Those that were less daring collapsed
onto the ground. Even those guys who thought themselves powerful had ashen faces at this
moment.
Qian Liu Darens water breath was vastness and full of life.

And this grey figure was filled with tyranny and destruction!

The second prison.


Numerous yao suddenly stopped what they were doing at the same moment. They raised their
heads in shock.
A dangerous presence filled with tyranny and destruction rushed past them like a gust of wind.
The enormous second prison sank into a strange silence.
A moment later, these yao that had been hard at work unhesitatingly dropped what they were
doing, and started to fly in the same direction. If one looked from above the second prison, they
would find that numerous figures seemed to be attracted to one location.
It was the entrance to the first prison.

Feeling the danger of the Archaic Wasteland Sacrificial Art presented, the vast water breath that
had been warm and peaceful a moment ago suddenly roiled.
Zuo Mo seemed to be situated in an angry ocean. The enormous waves that charged up could
swallow him at any instant. These furious waves contained power that could crumble mountains
and upend seas. If he was touched the tiniest bit, even with the Great Day mo physique, there
would only be one outcomehis body completely shattered!
The complete reverse of the peace and harmony, the prison battlefield had turned to the other
extreme. Zuo Mo understood this represented another attribute of the water breath. After
experiencing the voyages on Endless Ocean, he understood just how the furious water could be
terrifying powerful.
His surroundings were filled with abundant moisture.
Almost in the blink of an eye, a boundless ocean appeared under Zuo Mos feet.
Minuscule, Zuo Mo once again felt just how minuscule he was!
In front of this raging and vast water breath, people were forced to admit their insignificance.
Zuo Mo bit his lips tightly and tried to maintain his resolve. His hands were still methodically
swiping in the air.
All of his strength was gathered in his body!
Come!
Zuo Mo suddenly raised his flushed eyes.
Almost at the same time, two empty red lights suddenly lit up in the grey shadow. They were like
a pair of vicious eyes. The ignited red eyes were lantern sized, and like giving the touch of life to
a painting, the figure of the wasteland beast that had been slightly intangible did not seem to feel
transient any longer.
It was alive.
Even though the figure of the wasteland beast was not defined, but all of the yao had a strong
feeling, it was alive!
The tyrannical and destructive presence suddenly exploded like a volcano and headed into the
clouds!
It really was alive!
The spectating yao all shook. The two terrifying presences conflicted. They were like beauties
that had just been abused getting abused again!

Among the crowds of yao, light flashed occasionally outside the prison battlefield. Each flash of
light meant that a yao could not withstand the two oppressive presences and was forced out of
the Ten Finger Prison.
Inside the Ten Finger Prison, if their mental defenses were broken, they would be forcibly
ejected from the Ten Finger Prison. This kind of situation was not common. The yao cultivated
their consciousness. In terms of mental strength, they were much stronger than xiuzhe or mo.
But today, after the successive blows from two peerlessly presences, the yao that usually
cultivated in the first prison could not bear it. Even Nan Yue only stood for three breaths before
she was pushed out of the Ten Finger Prison.
In comparison Leng Yue and Chang Zhengs situation was much better. They usually cultivated
in the second prison, but there was no ease on their faces. They seemed to be struggling to bear
it. The other yao fortunate enough to remain all had pained expressions on their faces but no one
retreated of their own accord.
Everyone knew that the faceoff between the two presences that was coming would be a great
conflict!
To be able to personally see a battle of such a level, even if they had to pay a great price to
watch, they would unhesitatingly choose to do so, much less just tolerate some pain. This kind of
opportunity was rare!
The lantern-sized vicious eyes glowed with red light. The waves that seemed to cover the sky did
not seem to affect it.
It suddenly opened its mouth.
The open mouth suddenly formed a great suction force.
Numerous waves were forcibly pulled away from the water by this force and flew towards the
open mouth of the wasteland beast. The furious ocean suddenly paused shortly.
The surface of the water that had instantly calmed rippled. It was rebelling against this suction.
The light of the two enormous pupils in the grey shadow increased. The suction power increased!
Whoosh whoosh!
Like a whale drinking rivers, numerous pillars of water were sucked into the mouth of the
wasteland beast. The wasteland beasts mouth seemed to be a bottomless hole. No matter how
much water entered, it showed no signs of expanding.
But how could the vast ocean formed by the water breath be defeated so easily?
That was the water breath that Crystal Void Qian Liu Daren had left behind!
The vast ocean was colossal and showed no signs of shrinking. Many schools of fish suddenly
appeared under the water. These schools of fish were different than the schools of fish that
appeared before. They were of flesh of blood.
Life!
Zuo Mo suddenly understood. These schools of fish were truly lives that had been created by the
water breath!
There were innumerable schools of fish. They furiously leapt at the wasteland beast. The strong
vitality they carried was like boiling water and caused fear.
The shaking vitality did not serve as nutrients, but poison.
This blow was like the grass that broke the camels back for the yao who had been struggling
outside the battlefield.
Innumerable lights flashed. None of the yao outside the battlefield remained!
For the first time, the wasteland beast showed wariness. These fragile lives caused the powerful
wasteland beast to feel danger. Zuo Mo was very surprised!

Just as Zuo Mo felt shock, the lantern eyes of the wasteland beast suddenly blinked slyly.
Zuo Mo was shocked still by this person-like action of the wasteland beast.
The figure of the wasteland beast suddenly started to change.
Its body suddenly turned to shadow and divided into a top and bottom half.
Almost at the same time, Zuo Mos hands seemed to be out of his control as they unconsciously
started to move.
Little yao arts, number one, number five hundred.
The top half of the grey shadow suddenly started to furiously spin clockwise, while the bottom
half spun counter-clockwise.
That absurd and conflicting feeling appeared again. Zuo Mo felt as though he was being pulled
by two wagons in opposite directions, and was unspeakably uncomfortable.
After having experienced it before, Zuo Mo instantly understood what he needed to to.
Straight Pass-Through Form!
A power that was not strong instantly penetrated the centers of the two yao arts.
Under the feet of the wasteland beast that had turned to a whirlwind, a thread of white light
suddenly rose, and above its head, a blackness started to spread.
In the blink of an eye, the grey shadow turned to black and white parts that were clearly defined.
A black and white millstone.
The furiously turning millstone produced a much stronger suction force than before.
The schools of fish that came from all directions were like thin streams that were pulled into the
millstone before they could even resist.
There was no flesh or blood flying. Everything was so silent it looked like a picture.
In the center of the millstone, a glowing bead gradually took shape.
The vast water breath filled with life quickly decreased, and the bead in the middle of the
millstone became larger and glowed like a drop of dew.
The blood in Zuo Mos eyes gradually retreated. His consciousness was extremely drained.
Having recovered his calm, the first action Zuo Mo did was gather his last thread of strength,
grabbing the bead, and shoving it into his mouth.
His vision darkened and he instantly lost consciousness.
Translator Ramblings: Finally over! Seriously, Zuo Mo, swallowing it are you three years
old? Is your greed that overpowering? His rationale makes sense in a weird way. Hes a piece of
soul and if he leaves, the water breath might stay and someone else can take it. What to do?
Digest it so that it is a part of him.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Fifty Three Spread
This chapter has been brought to you by me, and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter Three Hundred and Fifty Three Spread
Wei Sheng progressed with difficulty. Each step required a great deal of concentration from him.
His clothing was in tatters and covered in dust, his entire person looked very fragile. Only that
pair of black eyes showed a sharp light that seemed to penetrate the thick fiendish mist.
The dangers of this journey was hundreds of times greater compared to this trip in the sword
cave.

Those soul beasts that could take form were especially vicious and cunning. They seemed to be
one with the fiend mist, would silently approach to ambush and were hard to defend against.
They also had an endless supply of illusory techniques that enchanted a persons mind. If it
wasnt for the strength of Wei Shengs resolve, he would have fallen a long time go. They came
like the wind, their speed was lightning fast, their attacks vicious. If he was the slightest bit
careless, he would land in a precarious situation.
In the most dangerous incident, he had encountered three fiend soul beasts. What surprised him
was that these three fiend soul beasts knew to cooperate among themselves. In that battle, he had
been wounded in a dozen places. The most serious wound was so deep his rib bones could be
seen.
If he did not have healing lingdan in his dimension ring, he would have died from the wound
alone.
However, Wei Sheng was still Wei Sheng. Having left the sect to come to such an unfamiliar and
dangerous place, it was as though he had been released from a heavy burden. The chains on his
heart were shattered. He was like a bird that had escaped the cage and was unspeakably relaxed.
He did not feel uncomfortable at the dangers in front of him.
He continuously experienced the ambush of all kinds of fiend soul beasts, the illusory techniques
that ensnared a persons mind. These dangers did not made him want to retreat, but tempered his
sword heart even making it more refined and pure.
His talent in cultivating the sword was very exceptional in the beginning. The worldly apparition
when he entered zhuji had caused everyone to feel anticipation about his future. Even Lin Qian
of mysterious origins treated his talent slightly favorably. It was possible to see just how talented
he was.
Having rediscovered the calm of his sword heart, and adding on the honing from the dangerous
situation, he was like a treasure sword uncovered from the dust, and gradually showed his
sharpened edges!
There wasnt much ling power left.
He thought inside as his gaze looked towards the depths of the fiendish mist. Previously, sword
essence had exploded suddenly in the direction he had been travelling. This gave him hope. He
had a strong feeling that he was not far from his target.
But right now, he needed to think of everything he could do and control the consumption of ling
power.
He was like the most frugal miser. If he could use one thread of ling power, he would not use two
threads. He also tried to absorb ling power from the jingshi in the dimensional ring, and tried to
purify it of impurities. He did everything he could do.
Even so, he was a sorry figure.
Caressing the black sword in his hands, he raised his head again and walked forward with
determination.
He trusted the sword in his hands.

Shixiong fainted again? Gongsun Cha gazed curiously at the unconscious Zuo Mo. He reached
out to poke and see if Shixiong was really unconscious.
The again of Gongsun Chas words made the other peoples features twitch.

Ehm, Daren must be cultivating a special technique. Xie Shan found a shoddy excuse. Zuo Mo
was his boss. He had to help disguise it.
Shu Longs mouth imperceptibly curved up but he quickly became stern again.
Gongsun Chas face was regretful as he muttered, I had been hoping he could help me fish
today
Hm, Daren will rest. He probably will wake up soon, Xie Shan could only say.
He had checked. There were no problems with Darens body.

Shu Long had been planning on reporting to Zuo Mo. He could only leave now. He was the
leader of the Hardship Guards. There was a pile of matters waiting for him everyday.
The camp of the Hardship Guard was always set up separately. Walking into the camp, it was
very busy.
For other people, the abundant black fiendish energy was akin to poison, but for them, it was
nothing less than the best nutrients.
Head, when will Daren come to the camp? When A Wen saw Shu Long, his eyes lit up, and he
ran over with his black spear. The other Hardship Guards also crowded over.
Shu Long felt a head but still said expressionlessly, Daren is cultivating now. When Daren
finishes, I will report at the first moment.
Oh. Everyones sounds carried slight disappointment.
In this period of time, the Hardship Guard had all improved greatly. There were many people that
had finished forming their weapons. Almost half of the Guard Camp had finished forming their
weapons. Compared to before, their combat capabilities were much stronger. Some more
accomplished, like A Wen, rocketed in their improvement.
In this short amount of time, he had become the second strongest in Guard Camp after Shu Long.
He had just woken up from his meditation, and had gained greatly. He was very innocent and he
desired Darens praise. Everyone in the camp had improved greatly. Every one of the flower
slaves had comprehended a few spells.
Shu Long also hoped that Daren could come to the camp. That would greatly increase morale.
He hadnt expected that Daren was unconscious again.
He could only go tomorrow, Shu Long thought.

Nan Yue rubbed her forehead as her head ached. Being forcibly ejected from the Ten Finger
Prison meant that her consciousness had been wounded slightly. But at this time, she did not put
any attention on her lightly wounded consciousness.
She only wanted to know one thing nowhad Daren finished the prison-breaking battle!
She wanted to enter Vast Water Clear Skies again, but before her consciousness recovered, she
had no way of entering Vast Water Clear Skies.
Tightly biting her lips, her heart was in the air. What would Vast Water Clear Skies look like
now?
But she could only be impatient. She comforted herself, tomorrow, by tomorrow, she would
know the result. No matter if Daren had completed the prison-breaking battle or not, this matter
would spread tomorrow, and the result would naturally float to the surface.

Daren had accidentally activated the prison-breaking battle. Due to this, other than the first and
second prison, no one had managed to rush over in time. Right now, the news had not spread, but
she dared to guarantee that by tomorrow, this matter would shake all of the yao world.
This was a prison-breaking battle!
She suddenly became excited. To be able to follow such a daren, what honor this was!
In the yao word, powerful yao would usually have many followers. Many of them would become
their darens students, but most of them would only have the identity of a follower. However, this
did not mean that they were lower than others. The guidance of a master, even if it was just a tiny
bit, would greatly benefit them.
Even more, Daren had promised to pass her [South Sky Arrow Art]!
Thinking about this, she unconsciously tightened her fisted hands.
Nan Yue, you have to work hard, and cannot disappoint Daren!
She repeatedly motivated herself, her little face filled with determination. She understood her
responsibilities. South Sky Wisteria Clan had already declined and was tiny. She did not think
about recovering the past prosperity of the Wisteria Clan of the South Sky. Her only hope was to
use her efforts to help the clansmen leave behind their situation of poverty. At least, they would
have better lives.
Nan Yue, you can do it!
She told herself.

The vast ocean seemed borderless.


Water shifted at a part of the ocean, and in a moment, a terrifying whirlpool over two hundred li
in diameter formed. The whirlpool spun with astonishing speed, the strong force pulling the
center of the whirlpool to collapse into itself.
A deep passage appeared in the center of the whirlpool.
A handsome male flew out of the passage. His features were soft in its lines, a warm and elegant
smile on his face that would create positive feelings, and had a transparent crystal on his
forehead.
He broke Vast Water Clear Skies, and swallowed my water breath bead as well, the male shook
his head and smiled. Looks like a pretty talented young little yao.
Just as he was talking to himself, a dash of fire landed from the sky.
Ha ha! Little Qian Qian, your Vast Water Clear Skies was broken!
A face appeared in the mountain-sized ball of fire. He was roaring with amused laughter.
Hearing the others appellation of him, Qian Lius forehead twitched. But he knew if he argued
with this unreasonable guy, that was definitely going up against a wall. He could only smile and
say, Three hundred years have passed, its time for it to be broken.
The fire-faced person that had been laughing at his misfortune a moment ago couldnt help but
snort. Hmph! Three hundreds years and no one came out. That group of old guys talk that whole
set every day, theres no use.
Qian Liu hurriedly urged, That cant be said. Even though there are no experts, but their
methods at nurturing intermediate level yao is very effective.
The temper of the fire-faced person was very explosive. He swore, Effective my ass! No
experts, there wont be one to be able to be seen in public.
They have it hard. Qian Liu sighed. Supposedly, a few good seedlings have come from the
yao art houses. They can be considered to have set up a path.

The fire-face persons temper lowered slightly, but he still growled, Its too late. Weve already
started the battle with the xiuzhe. If they came a few years earlier, then that would have worked.
Qian Liu said with a smile, It may not be a bad matter for them to arrive in time for this great
battle. Without the tempering of true battle, it is hard for these people gain strength.
In any case, you always have excuses! The fire-faced person clearly was impatient and did not
want to stay on this topic. He changed direction. What, dont you want to know what the new
first prison looks like?
Qian Liu blinked. There is still one day until the new first prison will form.
The flames around the body of the fire-faced person stilled. He had forgotten this. He hurriedly
glossed over. What do you think this boys origins are?
How can I guess? Ill know when I see tomorrow.
Hee hee, I cant wait.

Vast Water Clear Skies had been broken.


The news quickly spread through all of the large yao jies like it had wings, and instantly created
waves. Right now, the yao army was winning on the front lines. This news was a boost in morale
for the troops. All of the yao felt excited.
Was a new era about to come?
The prison-breaking battle that had not been activated for three hundred years once again entered
everyones view. Some old yao were so excited they started to reminiscence about the prosperity
of the yao before the thousand year war.
However, no one knew the origins of the mysterious guy.
All kinds of recording yao arts appeared, but people quickly found that all the recording yao arts
did not have an ending, lacking the most important and crucial part.
Speculation and discussion filled every corner of the yao world. Each yao was waiting for the
arrival of the second day, waiting for the new first prison to take form! Each yao desired to know

What would the new first prison be like?


Translator Ramblings: Wei Sheng keeps going and becomes a miser to survive. Zuo Mo is
unconscious and Xie Shan is such a good subordinate to make excuses for him.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Fifty Four The Wasteland
Beast Chessboard
This chapter has been brought to you by me, and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter Three Hundred and Fifty Four The Wasteland Beast Chessboard
Bam bam bam.
The sound of knocking on the door woke Nan Yue up. She really had been too tired yesterday
and slept deeply. She opened her heavy eyes, and opened the door to the room. When she saw the
people that come outside, all the drowsiness instantly disappeared.

The person that had knocked was Chi. His face was full of a warm smile. Behind him was a large
crowd of people. Nan Yue found many of them familiar to the eye. But when she saw the House
Elder of the Purple Lotus Yao Art House, she couldnt help but still.
Nan Yue, did we disturb your rest? Chis tone was filled with warmth and concern, and none
of the usual sternness as though he had become a completely different person.
Oh, no no. Nan Yue instinctively shook her head.
She finally recalled what those old looking people that looked familiar were. They were the
elders of the yao art house.
Two, three twelve!
Nan Yues scalp turned numb. All of the elders of the Purple Lotus Yao Art House Council of
Elders was standing in front of her home! These elders that usually were high up and indifferent
all had smiles on their faces, and harmonious auras. All of the upper level of the Purple Lotus
Yao Art House was here without an exception.
Seeing Nan Yue still where she stood, Chi instantly understood what it was. He couldnt help but
smile and say, What? Are you not going to invite us in to sit?
Oh oh oh! Nan Yue finally reacted and seemed to wake up from her dream. She hurriedly
moved away from the door. Please come in, come in!
The procession streamed in.
The House Elder examined the bare room and said with a slight smile, Student Nan Yue is
really living simply! As expected of the role model of our houses other students. Our other
students should learn from this valuable attitude.
Nan Yue sweated. She wasnt simple, she was just poor. At this moment, she did not know how
to respond, and could only murmur in agreement.
However, the House Elders tone changed as he said passionately, as the Chief Student Elder
of the Purple Lotus Yao Art House, Student Nan Yue should shoulder a heavier burden! This is
too far away, and not convenient. Oo, The houses Purple Lotus Park has a Spirit Clarity
Residence still empty. Student Nan Yue will find it much more convenient when moved over
there.
Chis gaze showed threads of admiration. Spirit Clarity Residence was the highest level of
residence in the Purple Lotus Yao Art House. There were only three suites in total. The House
Elder actually gave one to Nan Yue. The most valuable part of the Spirit Clarity Residence was
the Spirit Clarity Pool. It could increase the cultivation speed of the consciousness. To say
nothing of the high price in constructing the Spirit Clarity Pool, it could only be built on special
geological forms.
After that, the elders took their turns to persuade and were unparalleled in their friendliness.
Nan Yue seemed to go through the entire process as though it was a dream. She did not know
what to do. She only gradually refocused when the House Elder and the others had left for a
while.
Chief student elder? She had become the Chief Student Elder? And they had given her a Spirit
Clarity Residence to use?
Was she still dreaming?
But when she pulled herself out of the initial excitement, she quickly understood the crux. It was
not hard to guess what the attitude of the House Elder and the elders were for.
They were here for Daren!
Even though they hadnt mentioned one word about Daren today, but Nan Yue was one hundred
percent certain that they had come for Daren!

No, she had to report this to Daren!


She suddenly remembered today was the day the first prison formed.
Thinking to this, she instantly became excited. She inspected her consciousness. Even though she
had not fully healed her injuries, but she had recovered enough to enter the first prison. She
instantly entered meditation and directly entered the first prison.

Argh, motherf***er! the pained Zuo Mo wailed.


It had been a long time since his consciousness had been wounded. The long-absent pain
appeared again. The feeling of pain seemed to have grown even stronger.
This is the result of trying to show off, Pu Yao mocked neutrally.
Ouch ouch, which guy was scheming against me? No, I cant have suffered for nothing, I
have to return it! The pained Zuo Mo still exposed his vengeful nature.
You arent a match, Pu Yao said mercilessly.
How can it be known without a fight? Tell me quickly! Zuo Mo looked as though he would not
give up and was murderous.
Crystal Void Qian Liu.
Crytal Void Qian Liu? What thing is that? Zuo Mos face was curious.
It isnt a thing, just a three hundred years little yao.
Che, just a three hundred year little yao. Zuo Mo said unconcernedly.
A tendon throbbed in Pu Yaos forehead. He forcibly suppressed it. He comprehended water
breath.
Water Breath? Zuo Mo instantly became alert and said braggingly, That was water breath?
Didnt it get destroyed by my Archaic Wasteland Sacrificial Art!
Your Archaic Wasteland Sacrificial Art
The tendon in Pu Yaos forehead jumped again. He pretended to be calm and said, That was an
imprint he left behind three hundred years ago.
An imprint left three hundred years ago! Zuo Mo jumped in fright. In other words, he was
this powerful three hundred years ago?
Right.
The expression on Zuo Mos face changed as he said embarrassedly, Peace is valuable, peace is
valuable. Its not good to fight and kill for nothing!
Ignoring Pu Yaos disdainful gaze, he asked curiously, Why did his imprint attack me? I didnt
offend him.
He finds you an eyesore.
Pu Yaos caused Zuo Mos expression to become even more embarrassed. It seems that Ten
Finger Prison is really a dangerous place. I should not go to such a kind of place.
Pu Yao heard this and thought inside, no, if Zuo Mo was afraid and did not go to the Ten Finger
Prison in the future, it would be a troublesome matter. He was very familiar with Zuo Mos
personality. This guy could not be forced, and could only be tempted. If there were enough
benefits, this guy would howl and charge.
Theres a bit of danger, but there are also many benefits. Pu Yaos expression was indifferent
as though he was speaking objectively. You destroyed his imprint, and swallowed his water
breath bead. Havent you felt anything?
Zuo Mo finally remembered after Pu Yaos remember the bead he had swallowed before he had
fainted. He hurriedly made an examination and immediately found the water breath bead.

A glowing dewy bead floated in his sea of consciousness. The sea of consciousness where a sea
of flames danced had a lively and abundant humidity. The faint moisture spread from the dew
bead. Wherever the moisture passed, the wounded consciousness was like burnt soil receiving
nurturing and became full of life again. Zuo Mo felt unspeakably comfortable.
This was something really good!
Zuo Mos mind moved. The dew bead flew in front of him and a warm moisture blew into his
face.
The water breath bead can heal?
To make Zuo Mo understand the value of the water breath bead, Pu Yao naturally spoke
endlessly. Not just healing. With it, you will have an easier time comprehending your own water
breath. Once you have comprehended water breath, it will merge into the water breath that you
comprehend. You will have an easier time casting the great majority of water yao arts, and water
element spells, their power would also be greater.
This powerful? Zuo Mo felt very excited. He was clear to the value embodied. With this water
breath bead, it meant that his affinity to water had increased. This would increase the strength of
a major type of yao arts and spells.
Water element spells, ge knows them! He cast a [Little Art of Cloud and Rain] with pride. A
palm-size could instantly floated in his palm.
Hm, the cloud ball from the [Little Art of Cloud and Rain] this time was different than before.
The cloud ball seemed to be alive. The threads of rain that fell seemed to contain vitality. When
they landed in Zuo Mos palm, then sunk into Zuo Mos skin and disappeared. Zuo Mo felt
refreshed.
The sixth level of [Little Art of Cloud and Rain]!
Zuo Mos eyes widened, his face full of disbelief. Just with the addition of a water breath bead,
his [Little Art of Cloud and Rain] had leveled up to the sixth level!
The sixth level of [Little Art of Cloud and Rain] was significantly useful!
Zuo Mo was overjoyed.
Treasure! Great treasure!
Can this even be called a treasure? Pu Yao seemed to know Zuo Mos thoughts, and an
imperceptible smile floated on the corners of Pu Yaos mouth. He continued to tempt Zuo Mo,
The water breath was just from the prison-breaking battle of the first prison. Each prison of the
Ten Finger Prison has something good. Only what is in the later prisons can be called treasures.
Each prison has their own? Zuo Mos eyes lit up.
What? Are you interested? Pu Yao glanced at Zuo Mo with deliberate calmness.
Interested! Very interested! Zuo Mo nodded frantically. He rubbed his palms and said warmly,
Pu Yao, lets get them all! So many treasures, they cant be wasted!
This will depend on your skills. Pu Yao did not refute it. The later prison-breaking battles will
be more powerful than this.
Countless jingshi spun in Zuo Mos eyes. He drooled and said with a stupid smile, Thats
nothing, we can wear them down, wear them to death!
The water breath bead was wondrous as expected. Not long after, Zuo Mos injured
consciousness was healed. Zuo Mo was full of praise, and desired the other treasures even more.
Lets go, you have not named your prison battlefield yet, Pu Yao said as he pulled Zuo Mo into
Vast Water Clear Skies.
Zuo Mo looked at the unfamiliar environment, his mouth wide, and his face stunned.

The criss-crossing river flows from before had all disappeared. The shards of stone under his feet
had also disappeared. What replaced them were squares of different colors. The various colored
tiles extended into the distance like an enormous chess board.
What what is this?
Nothing big. Pu Yao suppressed the shock inside and said in a normal tone. You broke the
first prison left by someone before you, so the first prison will be reconstructed.
Oh, so its like that. Zuo Mos face showed realization
He casually walked forward and stepped into a green square. There were no changes. He stepped
into another square, and there was still no change.
It just changed appearance.
The shock in Zuo Mos heart disappeared. He felt it was very boring, and his expression
disappeared.
Suddenly, the scene in front of him changed again.
He seemed to have flown to a very high place and was looking down from an aerial view. He
saw an enormous chessboard, the disorderly tiles formed a strange shape. The figure seemed
slightly familiar to Zuo Mo. He quickly understood what the pattern was. Wasteland beast, that
was a wasteland beast!
Create a name. Pu Yaos light voice sounded at Zuo Mos ears.
Wasteland Beast Chessboard. Zuo Mos mind moved, and he blurted out.
Boom boom boom!
The sound was like thunder. The pattern of the wasteland beast on the chessboard seemed to
suddenly become alive. A thread of grey smoke came out of the chessboard, and in a blink, turn
to a wasteland beast.
The lantern sized red and vicious eyes, the bleak and disdainful presence, the roiling and
shapeless body.
It glanced at Zuo Mo and suddenly burrowed back into the chessboard.
The chessboard under him once again became what it was originally.
In the minds of the yao that had excitedly charged into the first prison, three words floated up
simultaneouslyWasteland Beast Chessboard!
Translator Ramblings: Zuo Mos proven history of terrible names have been broken
actually, the name come from what Pu Yaos teacher created so this isnt really something he
made. Nan Yue is so protective of her Daren

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Fifty Five Bidding
This chapter has been brought to you by me and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter Three Hundred and Fifty Five Bidding.
Wasteland Beast Chessboard!
Nan Yue couldnt resist repeating it lightly. The squares of various colors under her feet spread
into the horizon without end.
Lights occasionally flashed. Every yao who entered the Wasteland Beast Chessboard was filled
with shock. There were no obstacles in their vision. They seemed to be on a broad plain. The yao
further away seemed like black dots in their field of view

The strange colored squares under their feet reminded them this was a place filled with
weirdness.
Some of the people that had been doubting the prison-breaking battle had their suspicious
dissipate when they saw the completely transformed first prison. They stared dazedly with wide
mouths as they looked at the borderless chessboard that was almost unimaginable.
Nan Yue fought free from her shock. She released a long breath. She was filled with curiosity.
What was unique about Darens Wasteland Beast Chessboard?
She wanted to try when a slightly cold voice sounded from behind her.
Pardon me, are you Student Nan Yue?
Nan Yue turned around and saw a slightly thin but handsome youth standing with a smile. He
bowed slightly. This one is Leng Yue, from Western Mountain Cold Clan.
Western Mountain Cold Clan? Nan Yue was slightly bewildered. The Wisteria Clan of the
South Sky might have a glorious past, but it had been in decline for a long time. Struggling on
the poverty line, how could Nan Yue pay attention to those rich and powerful families?
Leng Yue responded very quickly. Seeing the expression on Nan Yues face, he understood that
the others birth was definitely very normal. He couldnt help but rejoice inside. Yesterday, the
news he had sent back to the sect had attracted attention from the clan. For this, they had used all
their power to investigate the origins of the mysterious prison-breaking yao.
Even though the origins of the prison-breaking yao was a puzzle, but they still found some clues.
For example, Nan Yue.
Up to here, there was nothing that Leng Yue had to do. He did not have the qualifications for
future matters. But his luck was really good, and coincidentally encountered Nan Yue when he
entered the Wasteland Beast Chessboard.
Towards a very alert Leng Yue, how could he pass such a good chance?
It was a pity that he wasnt the only one with good luck. Those that had the power to find Nan
Yue werent just the Cold Family.
Are you Miss Nan Yue? A ethereal looking female clad in a white robe appeared at the side and
politely bowed to Nan Yue. This one is Bai Rou Lian.
Haha! Such a coincidence! A brawny large male about three zhang tall appeared out of
nowhere and bowed with great politeness towards Nan Yue. Miss Nan Yue, an is Cang Ze.
Leng Yue and Bai Rou Lians expressions were not too good, but they were all from influential
families, and had some shrewdness. Even though they were wary, but their faces quickly were
covered with smiles again as though they were good friends.
Nan Yue was not dumb. When she saw this, she knew what was happening, and grimaced inside.
At this time, a voice that was like a blessing from Heaven sounded at Nan Yues ears. Nan Yue.
Zuo Mo had detected Nan Yues position and ran over. Nan Yue was his follower in name, and
was really one of his people. Towards his own people, Zuo Mo usually cared for them. From
their recent interactions, Zuo Mo felt that Nan Yue was good in all areas, and hard working. She
was worthy of being fostered.
When Nan Yue saw Zuo Mo, it was like she had seen her savior. Daren!
Woosh, the other three peoples eyes landed on Zuo Mo. Even though they had all seen Zuo Mos
figure from the yao recording art, but when they saw him from close up, they were still stunned
by Zuo Mos youth.
Daren!
The three of them were abnormally in sync as they respectfully bowed. The respect on their faces
were not out of politeness but came from their hearts. They had a good family background, and

received the best teachings, their strength was far above those of their age, but all of this could
not be discussed when compared with the daren in front of them.
In front of such a genius that was able to leave behind his mark on yao society, what assets did
they have to be proud of?
En? Zuo Mo paused. These three people he did not know called him Daren?
Their brains were wonky?
He looked suspiciously at Nan Yue and pointed at the trio. What is this?
Daren, Im not very clear either. Nan Yues expression was pitiable.
Zuo Mo turned his face around. Who can tell me what is going on?
As a boss of a group of experts, he naturally formed a presence over time. Once he was serious,
the unquestionable tone made the trios hearts shake. All three of them were smart. In that short
sentence, the three could detect many things.
Even Leng Yue who had originally assumed that Zuo Mo came from an unknown family turned
changed his previous speculation.
This junior is Bai Rou Lian, and is representing the White Family to congratulate Daren for his
successful prison-breaking. Bai Rou Lian was the first to speak. Her tone was respectful, her
voice was sweet and pleasing to hear. The White Family has prepared some gifts for Elder.
Daren, please accept them.
Leng Yue and Cang Ze felt depressed. This wench had gone one step in front of them. They
instantly felt as though they had eaten a fly, and were unspeakably uncomfortable. However, the
two reacted quickly and hurried to speak.
The Cold Family
The Grey Clan
Zuo Mo listened and generally understood what was going on. He waved his hand and
interrupted the two people. Alright, say what you need. One by one. Finishing, he pointed at
Bai Rou Lian. You first.
Bai Rou Lian was smug inside but did not dare to forget herself. She respectfully said, The
White Family earnestly requests for Daren to enter the Peace River Yao Art House. The entire
house will give you the best treatment. The White Family is willing to give six million each year,
and a Heart Spirit Residence. The White Family will pay for all of Darens expenses, and Daren
can cultivate all the yao arts of the Peace River Yao Art House.
Nan Yue gaped. Heavens, six million each year! Even if she graduated from the Purple Lotus
Yao Art House and found a job, her monthly income definitely would not surpass one thousand.
Yet what was more valuable was that Heart Spirit Residence. Compared to the Spirit Clarity
Residence that the House Elder had given to her this morning, the Heart Spirit Residence was
even more expensive. A Heart Spirit Residences price on the market would start at ten million
on the market.
Really generous! Nan Yues expression was stunned.
Zuo Mo was very happy. Haha, so much jingshi! Oh, no, the yao world should not be using
jingshi, but Zuo Mo understood that this definitely was not a low price. It could be seen from
Nan Yues expression.
However, Zuo Mo was a very experienced person. He had an innate intuition about bargaining.
Adding on his wealth of battle experience, the three brats in front of him were three rich and
sweet lambs.
Zzt zzt zzt

The sound of knives being honed sounded in Zuo Mos heart, but his expression remained
neutral as though he was a person who did not care for mortal matters.
He pointed at Cang Ze and said, You talk.
Cang Ze became alert. Daren, our clan is willing to give Daren eight million annually. The clan
does not have a Heart Spirit Residence but the clan is willing to provide Daren three Golden
Souls each year.
Bai Rou Lians expression instantly became terrible. She was not shocked that Cang Ze was able
to give a tribute of eight million each year. What she was shocked about was Golden Souls!
The rumors said that the Grey Clan possessed a Gold Tree. It seemed that it was true!
Leng Yues expression was ashen. The last hope in his heart was destroyed. To say nothing about
the fact the clan had not given him the power to negotiate, but even with the permission, he
believed that the clan would not be able to give a price higher than this.
It was not just the Cold Clan was unable to do so, the White Clan was also unable. When he saw
Bai Rou Lians black face, the depressed Leng Yue felt much better.
Even though he didnt know what Golden Soul was, but his intuition told Zuo Mo this definitely
was something rare and good.
Golden Soul! Pu Yaos voice trembled slightly. Take this one!
Zuo Mo did not accept. He nodded to Cang Ze and then turned his gaze to Leng Yue.
Leng Yue docilely said, Daren, we cannot give a price higher than Brother Cang Ze.
This result was not unexpected to Zuo Mo. Something that even Pu Yao changed expression at, it
definitely was something good. He guessed that Leng Yue could not give a higher price, but out
of caution, he still asked.
Okay. Zuo Mo said to Cang Ze, You follow me. Nan Yue, come as well.
Cang Ze was overjoyed and hurried to follow.
Bai Rou Lians black expression disappeared. Leng Yue did not have any more interest in seeing
the Wasteland Beast Chessboard, and returned to report this matter.
There was no one around. Zuo Mo sat down and said to the two, Sit.
Cang Ze respectfully sat down, and Nan Yue sat down next to Zuo Mo.
In just this little while, Pu Yao quickly introduced Zuo Mo to the Golden Soul. The Golden Soul
was born from the Golden Tree and was very rare. Pu Yao had assumed that the Golden Tree had
gone extinct. The Golden Soul could quickly strengthen the consciousness and also expand the
sea of consciousness. What it was most valuable at was that it could strength the spirit, and cause
it to become even more pure and refined.
Yao cultivated the consciousness. How strong the consciousness was what determined strength.
But the strength of the consciousness could not cause it to become pure and refined. Pure spirit
was even more stabilized, and the sea of consciousness was even more secure. Unpure
consciousness would become a hidden weakness. The deeper one cultivated, the more dangerous
it would become.
Golden Soul was a great treasure that was not easily found, and for Pu Yao whose spirit was
greatly wounded, Golden Soul was what he desperately needed to heal himself!
So when he heard the words Golden Soul, he couldnt control himself.
What Zuo Mo cared about was another problem. The only place he could interact with them was
in the Wasteland Beast Chessboard. To say nothing of the fact he was now trapped in the ancient
battlefield, even if he left, he could not come to the yao world.
Golden Soul was like the water breath bead. It could be taken into the Ten Finger Prison. This
was what Zuo Mo prioritized.

However, there were no problems on his side, but he was not sure that Cang Ze would accept his
conditions. The other would not easily give something like Golden Soul away.
So he spoke of his problem.
As expected, when he heard that Zuo Mo could not move to the Grey Clan, Cang Zes expression
was not good. Truthfully, the price that Cang Ze gave was already the highest price.
Zuo Mo might have reconstructed the Wasteland Beast Chessboard but this was only the first
prison.
In other words, what Zuo Mo displayed now was astonishing potential and not great strength.
Before it became strength, potential was just potential no matter how amazing it was. It was
filled with uncertainty and risk.
Cang Ze was silent for a long time. Zuo Mo instantly thought it was bad.
Damn it, if something this good flew away, he would cry!
Just as Zuo Mo had a headache, Pu Yao finally couldnt resist speaking.
Translator Ramblings: My third trip in thirty days but this is the big one Im moving to
another city. I have tentative mobile internet but Im scheduling all the chapters ahead of time so
there shouldnt be any problems.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Fifty Six New Changes
This chapter has been brought to you by me, and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter Three Hundred and Fifty Six New Changes
Ask him what level of Grey Scar Art he has cultivated to?
Zuo Mo immediately detected Pu Yaos urgent tone when he suddenly spoke. After being in
contact with Pu Yao for a long time, Zuo Mo gradually learned some of Pu Yaos habits. Usually,
Pu Yao looked down his nose at the great majority of matters, but when it was something that
was of great help to him, he would not disguise his urgent desire.
Speaking from this perspective, Pu Yao was very straightforward. However, the great majority of
the time, his straightforwardness was not very easy for a person to accept.
For example, he did not disguise his desire for the Golden Souls. Also, for example, if Zuo Mo
did not get the Golden Souls for him, then what was waiting for him were countless pitfalls.
Pu Yaos threats were bare naked.
Zuo Mo knew this very well. He coughed lightly, and said, What step have you reached with
your Grey Scar Art?
Cang Ze was very shocked. Grey Scar Art, the other knew Grey Scar Art? Nan Yue detected
Cang Zes shock from the side. She thought inside, was this another yao art like the [South Sky
Arrow Art]?
Daren was really mysterious!
Cang Ze tightly stared at Zuo Mo as he wanted to see hints from Zuo Mos face.
But Zuo Mo was a very experienced person. He stiffened his face, and copied Pu Yaos
expressionless face very well. Inside, he muttered, I was such a pure and generous person before.
After staying so long with Pu Yao, Im now skilled in conning and lying.
Of course, he would not feel any guilt. He was trying to act out his role properly.

Cang Ze could not find any clues. Since the other could say the name of the Grey Scar Art, he
should not be speaking nonsense. Of the many yao arts that existed now in the Grey Clan, [Grey
Scar Art] was very unnoticeable. Those youths of the clan who had the slightest talent would not
choose this yao art as their primary cultivation. They would like yao arts such as [Grey Sea Art]
or [Grey Cloud Art] that were more powerful.
But as the grandson of the clan leader, he knew more than normal Grey Clan members. For
example, the council of elders had never stopped their secret studies of the [Grey Scar Art].
The Grey Clan had so many yao arts, but why did the other just mention the [Grey Scar Art]?
Countless thoughts flashed through Cang Zes mind He lowered his head and said respectfully,
This one has not cultivated Grey Scar Art.
Not cultivated? Pu Yao stilled.
Zuo Mo reacted rapidly and stilled as well. You have not cultivated Grey Scar Art?
Has the Grey Clan created some other powerful yao art? Pu Yao murmured to himself. His
brows furrowed, and he was slightly surprised.
Has your Grey Clan created some powerful yao art? Zuo Mo learned and sold it at the same
time.
Cang Ze gritted his teeth. Not created new yao art, but this student is stupid and has not been
allowed access to Grey Scar Art. His heart beat wildly, his term for himself changing from this
one to this student.
In the sea of consciousness, Pu Yaos brow smoothed as he released a breath. Tell him you will
teach him Grey Scar Art, and exchange for five Golden Souls each year.
You know Grey Scar Art? Zuo Mo asked Pu Yao suspiciously.
That thing is very simple, it just curves from normal. Having found his confidence, Pu Yao
waved his hand with bravado.
Zuo Mo was both trusting and suspicious. Pu Yao really knew too many things. However, his
thoughts did not affect his reaction. He lightly coughed, I happen to know a bit about cultivating
Grey Scar Art.
Cang Ze felt a strong feeling of happiness burst over his mental defenses. He actually felt a
thread of dizziness.
His voice trembled slightly. Really?
Yes, Zuo Mo forced himself to say.
At this time, Cang Ze showed his quality as the grandson of the clan leader. He did not lose
control due, but suppressed his excitement. He asked respectfully, What can my Grey Clan do
for Teacher?
Zuo Mo looked with praise at Cang Ze. He thought inside that this boy was very adept. However,
he did not give the other a discount due to his praise. Ten Golden Souls each year.
When he opened, Zuo Mo doubled Pu Yaos price.
Its not ge is greedy, ge has a home and people to support!
In the sea of consciousness, Pu Yao gazed with bulging eyes.
Hiss, Cang Ze sucked in a breath. Even though he had predicted that the price the Grey Clan
would pay would not be low, but ten Golden Souls annually, this price still far surpassed his
estimate.
This matter is grave. This Student needs to ask the elders of the sect.
Cang Ze carefully answered.
Alright. Zuo Mo did not waste words. He pointed at Nan Yue and said, She is my follower,
just find her in the future.

Hearing this, Cang Ze hurriedly exchanged spirit imprints with Nan Yue. A simple Grey
character flew in front of Cang Ze. At the sides were two grey-green sparse shrubs. Nan Yue also
took out her own spirit imprint. Her spirit imprint was the two characters South Sky formed by
a curved purple vine.
Noticing Nan Yues spirit imprint, Cang Zes heart moved. In his investigation, Nan Yue did not
have much of a background. She was born from a very small clan, their living conditions were
difficult, and they were very normal. Seeing her spirit imprint, he couldnt help but be shocked.
Being from an influential family, he naturally would not lack knowledge about spirit imprints.
The way that the South Sky was written was completely different than what it was written like
now. This kind of spirit imprint would mostly appear on those clans with long histories.
He noted it down, and planned on making an investigation when he returned. He reached out
with a finger and gently poked the South Sky. A purple light flew into his spirit imprint. Nan
Yue did the same.
After exchanging spirit imprints, the two sides would easily get in contact.
Cang Ze hurriedly bid farewell. He was in a hurry to go back and report. He had a feeling that
this chance was very likely to be a chance in the Grey Clans fortunes.
After Cang Ze left, Zuo Mo taught Nan Yue for a while before he left.

So he went the way of deconstruction. Qian Liu was slightly puzzled. A pretty unique style.
The fire-faced person seemed to be uninterested in the Wasteland Beast Chessboard. Looking
around, he suddenly snickered and said, Those little brats probably cant stop themselves now.
Qian Liu knew the people the fire-faced person was referring to. He smiled but did not speak. He
continued to observe the Wasteland Beast Chessboard. He had left Vast Water Clear Skies three
hundred years ago when he had broken the prison. He had not paid much attention to this
incident in the past.
But his curiosity did not decrease today. He could not remember how long it had been since he
came to Vast Water Clear Skies. As an expert that stayed in the seventh prison, the first prison
was really a distant memory. Today, he had come especially to take a lot what the newly
constructed prison by the guy who had broken his Vast Water Clear Skies looked like.
I heard he is also very young? Qian Liu asked interestedly.
Very young! The fire-faced persons eyes raised his eyebrows. The face inside the ball of fire
raised his brows with schadenfreude. Hes probably on the list of the little brats as a target to
challenge.
Thats not bad. Qian Liu said neutrally, Competition is good.
He took back his consciousness and said with regret, Pity I cannot activate the prison-breaking
battle. The powerful stuff is all in there.
The conditions to activate the prison-breaking battle were mysterious. For example, no one had
activated the first prison, Vast Water Clear Skies, in the three hundred years. However, in the last
three hundred years, the second, fourth, and fifth prisons had all been activated. The pattern
involved was hard to predict.
Qian Liu had activated a prison-breaking battle and knew much more than normal people.
The conditions to activate the prison-breaking battle did not have a direction connection with
power, but the level of the person. It was also a very subtle connection. It would not work if the
persons level was too high, like he was currently. He could activate the first prisons prisonbreaking battle three hundred years ago, but the present him could not do so.

It would also not work if their level was too low.


Also, the Ten Finger Prison seemed to favor young yao. More accurately, young yao with high
levels.
It really was a pity!
Qian Liu shook his head regretfully. The others most powerful yao art imprint was inside the
prison-breaking battle. The Wasteland Beast Chessboard was filled with profound and exquisite
deconstructing yao arts. It was like a rich sea of problems.
Qian Liu had fought against many experts before but it was the first time he had seen such an
unique style. His heart itched and was hard to resist.
The fire-faced person saw the regret on Qian Lius face and suddenly crowded over. I have a
solution.
What solution?
Get the group of brats to come. The fire-faced person seemed to want the world in chaos.
That group of brats definitely is full of motivation right now. Let them come break the
Wasteland Beast Chessboard.
Qian Lius thoughts shifted, but he shook his head and said, The prison-breaking battle is not so
easy to activate.
Hee hee, that isnt our business. I speculate that the group of old farts is also interested, the
fire-faced said and snickered. He then said with righteous magnanimity, Dont worry about this
matter, Ill get them to come!
Qian Liu was truly curious about Zuo Mos yao arts. He smiled and did not stop the other, only
saying, Dont make it too big.
Dont worry, dont worry. The fire-faced persons expression was excited.

Zuo Mo came out of the Wasteland Beast Chessboard and felt a warm gust of air on his face.
He shook, and hurriedly opened his eyes. A familiar face was almost pressed to his.
A Gui!
He released a breath. Holding up A Guis face, he asked curiously, What were you doing?
A Gui stared dazedly at him and did not reply.
When Zuo Mo finished speaking, he stilled. Wait. Joy suddenly came into his eyes. A Gui, A
Gui!
A Gui stilled looked dumbly at Zuo Mo without any response
The joy on Zuo Mos face gradually retreated. He examined A Gui closely. Her eyes were still
empty and wooden. He couldnt help but have a disappointed expression. A Gui had not
recovered. He shook his head, and mocked himself. He was really too greedy.
He quickly recovered from his disappointment. Even though A Gui had not recovered, but she
was much more lively now compared to before.
At the very least, this was a sign of a good turn of fortunes!
Thinking it through, the depression over Zuo Mos heart instantly swept away, and he roused
himself. Jumping up, he picked A Gui up and put her on his back as he charged outside.
A Gui, lets go. Well go to Shu Longs place to play!
Translator Ramblings: Since I havent taken this notice off, Im on limited internet.
Pu Yao reveals his connection to another yao clan and Zuo Mo drives a super hard bargain.
Poor Cang Ze, you are so innocent.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Fifty Seven Shadow Mo
Guard A Wen
This chapter has been brought to you by me and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter Three Hundred and Fifty Seven Shadow Mo Guard A Wen
Ever since the Guard Camp was established, it seemed fated to have a hidden competitive
relationship with Vermillion Bird Camp, even though the majority of the camp guards were once
Vermillion Bird Camps captives. At the start, Vermillion Bird Camp had been unparalleled in its
strength, and dominated all of Little Mountain Jie. In reality, for a very long time after the camp
was formed, Guard Camp had been in a very awkward state. They were weak offensively, could
not fight for Daren, and in many occasions, they were a burden.
Even many people from Vermillion Bird Camp could not understand why Daren would set up
Guard Camp who was so weak in battle.
Everyone in Guard Camp had a grudge. They furiously cultivated without holding back any
energy back. They never asked why they were cultivating, why were they cultivating like this.
They only buried their heads and cultivated. Hardship? They were xiu slaves, they were not
afraid of hardship.
Finally, the situation changed when Shu Long formed his armor. After forming his armor, Shu
Long did not just recover his youth, but his combat abilities had become comparable to the top
tier under Darens command. The Crow Fiend Mo Kill Formation was finally effective in battle,
but the main force in battles was still Vermillion Bird Camp.
Their heavy and clumsy armor caused their movements to be slow. This made them take up a
more defensive position in battles.
The situation had finally changed now.
Shu Long tightly grasped the long halberd in his hand. A cold feeling passed back as though a
burst of strength burrowed into his body. His chest was filled with motivation.
It wasnt as simple as just getting a weapon!
Shu Long suddenly saw Zuo Mo and A Gui in the doorway, and hurriedly bowed.
Zuo Mo looked around. Seeing everyone working hard, a smile came onto his face. Not bad.
Zuo Mo had been worried about morale previously. Seeing the business of the campsite, his heart
relaxed slightly. In reality, Guard Camps morale had been good all along. This place was filled
with black fiendish energy. It gave the Guard Camp the hope of surpassing Vermillion Bird
Camp. They worked even harder on their cultivation. Vermillion Bird Camps morale was more
severely affected, but after Zuo Mo threw them [Fiend Ling], they had settled down.
The path to leave this land could be slowly searched for, but if they did not even have the ling
energy to cultivate, that was a blade that hung above the necks of xiuzhe.
A Wen saw Zuo Mo and ran over. Daren, Daren.
When Zuo Mo saw A Wen, he asked with a smile, A Wen, hows your cultivation going?
A Wen was much healthier than when he had been rescued. His exquisite armor did not feel
clumsy at all, but nimble and light.
Ha ha, Daren, look. A Wen held up his black spear as though he was presenting a treasure.
My weapon formed too! And I also comprehended some fun things!

The completely black long spear had no adornment, but it gave the feeling of being finely
crafted. The lines were smooth and flowing, two grooves on either side of the spearpoint. The
fiery red charm hung at the head of spear and caused the black spear which originally seemed
murderous and cold to have a hint of fire.
Can the spear leave your body? Zuo Mo asked.
No. A Wen scratched his head and said, The black speak is condensed from killing energy. If
it leaves my hand, it will dissipate.
Zuo Mos interest was stirred. Come, show me.
A Wen obeyed. With a somersault, he flew out twenty zhang. Seeing this, the other people in the
campsite stopped what they were doing and cheered A Wen on.
Little Monkey, one more!
Little Monkey, dont embarrass yourself in front of Daren!
Ha ha, Little Monkey, if you cant do it, switch for someone else!
When A Wen had been rescued, his figure had been very small. Even though he was much
healthier now, but among this camp of burly men, his figure really was on the small side. Adding
on that A Wens personality was lively and active, he was also clever, everyone called him Little
Monkey.
Ha, just be jealous!
A Wen shot back. His smiling face suddenly turned serious as he stood holding his spear.
The noisy camp instantly quieted. Everyones mirth retreated, their expressions becoming
serious. A Wen might be young, but he was exceptionally talented, and was firmly held his spot
as the second strongest member of the Guard Camp, his strength just a bit less than Shu Longs.
They were also very curious about what A Wen had comprehended from staying in meditation
for so long in the fiendish mist.
Shu Long had a gratified expression. He was the oldest, his personality was steady and wellestablished. His competitive desire was weak. He had basically taught everything to A Wen.
Seeing A Wen improve rapidly, he was very happy.
A Wens expression was serious. The air flowed in streams around him and gradually sped up. In
an instant, the air started to hiss like an arrow travelling at a high speed.
Clang!
With the sound of metallic impact, many black and gold plumes popped out of the black armor.
Zuo Mo was very shocked.
A Wens figure was thin and slender to begin with. With the addition of these long feather-like
black gold plumes, he looked even more nimble. A Wen bent his legs slightly and then his figure
disappeared from his spot.
So fast! Zuo Mos pupils slightly shrunk. His eyes were not ordinary but he could only see a
streak of black. He was shocked. Unless Zuo Mo used the Light Void Wings, he would be left
eating dust behind A Wen with that speed.
This boys talent isnt bad. Pu Yao couldnt resist popping in. Look, this is the difference! He
can cultivate to this step using a trashy [Hardship Guard]. Dont you feel ashamed?
Ashamed? Why should I be ashamed? Zuo Mo did not turn his eyes and responded, Its better
the stronger he is.
Pu Yao finally recalled the person in front of him had such a thick face that he was immune to
mockery of this degree.
Zuo Mo rubbed his chin and said directly, Not bad, not bad! This fast, we dont have to use
turtle tactics in the future. Can he fly? It will be great if there is flight!

Dont think so optimistically. Pu Yao could not bear to see Zuo Mos content state, and
smirked. This boy is very talented. The other people lack greatly compared to him. They can
only be heavy armor Hardship Guards. His tone then turned. So many cultivation sects, they
are all blind to dismiss such a good seed.
Pu Yao started his usual habit of mocking everyone.
Zuo Mo ignored him and looked seriously at A Wen. A Wens speed was extremely fast, and
rivaled the sword xiu when they flew on their swords. His nimbleness was actually better than
sword xiu.
Zuo Mo, who could be considered to be an old-timer, was very clear how much of an advantage
such speed would be in combat.
Midair, A Wen flipped again, and the black spear in his hand suddenly thrust.
Hiss!
A section of the spear-point suddenly appeared out of the air in a place thirty zhang from his
body!
What is that? Zuo Mos expression changed.
Air-breaker, a little technique. Dont make a mountain out of a molehill. Even though he said
this, Pu Yao could not disguise the pride on his face. So young and he comprehended Airbreaker. It can be considered rare for mo guards.
Pu Yaos tone turned to be slightly regretful. Actually, Shu Longs talent is also not bad, but it is
a pity that his age when he started cultivation is slightly old.
All of the others sighed in shock. They widened their eyes in fear of missing any detail. Many of
the techniques that A Wen was showing now was great inspiration to him, especially the camp
guards that had broken through and formed their weapon.
In the air, A Wen seemed unconstrained by space. The tip of his spear thrust would appear in any
place within one hundred zhang of him according to his will.
In a good mood, Pu Yao started to urge. Actually, hardship guards like this boys kind is rare.
The greatest duty of mo guards are to protect their master, not to kill enemies. That is why mo
guards are frequently large blockheads. These people from Guard Camp are too weak. The best
mo guards are Mountain Range Bull Mo, and Stone Rhinoceros Mo. If they cultivate [Hardship
Guard], tsk tsk, they are just moving mountains. If it is the mantis mo that cultivate [Hardship
Guard], it is more common for shadow mo guards specialized in speed to appear. But mantis mo
are guys who will die if they are touched. Who would use them as guards?Maybe if they do not
want to live a long time.
Hearing this, Zuo Mo noticed the other people in Guard Camp. As expected, they were all big
blockheads. Each persons body was full of exaggerated muscles. Their figures were half again
as large as normal people on average. Adding on the thick armor, they were like mobile steel
forts.
At this time, the red charm on A Wens black spear suddenly turned to a thread of fire and
wrapped around the tip of the spear.
Kill!
A Wen shouted. A light that intermingled red and black tore apart the air.
Boom!
Everyone felt their vision light up. A burning and fiendish wave of air blew through the entire
Guard Camp.
When the air gust subsided, a deep pit about five zhang wide appeared on the corner of the
campsite.

It was an easy matter to make a pit five zhang wide. However, this pit seemed slightly deep. Zuo
Mo flew to beside the pit, and looked inside. His heart was instantly shocked. This pit most
likely was not less than twenty zhang deep.
Making a pit with a width of five zhang was not hard, but a pit that was deeper than twenty
zhang was very difficult to accomplish!
This pit was formed like a knife cutting tofu. The bottom and top part of the hole were the same
width. This showed one thing. A Wens attacking force was concentrated and evenly distributed.
Zuo Mo judged that if he was hit, he would probably lose half of his life.
A Wens figure flashed and he appeared next to Zuo Mo.
Not bad, Little Monkey, Zuo Mo praised. You have really broadened my vision.
A Wens face suddenly became flushed, and slightly embarrassed. Daren, do not ridicule this
humble performance.
Ho, Little Monkey, youre embarrassed now?
Ha ha, Little Monkeys face is very thin!
The people in the surroundings instantly started. A Wen was even more embarrassed. He
scratched his head and stood at the side. Seeing this, the other people laughed even more happily.
Zuo Mo also couldnt resist roaring in laughter.

Is what you say true?


The elders in the room exploded. Many of the elders unconsciously stood up. These elders
emotions were turbulent, and they forgot to keep their strength back. All the furniture in the room
creaked and exploded in pieces.
Cang Zes scalp turned numb. He did not dare to breath. He said so.
How can he know how to cultivate Grey Scar Art? He definitely is a liar!
Who cares if he is a liar. Catch him and then we will know!
Catch? What if he really knows? If we offend him, we will really lose greatly!
The Grey Clan elders talked over each other, their faces red and their necks thick as though they
were going to kill someone.
Cang Ze buried his head lower, and grimaced inside.
Alright, all of you shut up! A deep voice sounded. All of the voices disappeared.
The Chief Elder finally spoke. Cang Ze wiped away the cold sweat and celebrated inside.
What conditions does he have? The Chief Elder opened his eyes in his wrinkle-filled face.
Ten Golden Souls. Each Year.
The enormous elder room was deathly silent.
Translator Ramblings: Guard Camp is growing in this environment that suits them better. Zuo
Mo is lucky he is the leader of himself and doesnt have to answer to elders or family members
any longer other than Pu Yao. He has a lot more freedom than typical protagonists who
have to do missions for the sect, help get revenge slights against this ally or this girl.

Chapter Three Hundred and Fifty Eight Public Challenge


Have you gone to see the Wasteland Beast Chessboard? a student excitedly asked his
classmate.
Another student hurriedly took up the topic. Of course, how can I miss it? They are really
strong! They say it is a very young yao. I wonder which yao art house this monster came from.
There are yao beyond yao, bro! Student A said emotionally.
Right? I had assumed before that all the geniuses were part of the Genius Alliance. Didnt think
there would be people outside. Student B felt it was slightly impossible to believe.
Ha, Ive long found that group of lily-white faces an eyesore. They take away all the girls based
on their strength, and leave us with nothing. A hero finally comes down from the Heavens. Hero!
He definitely has to strike a blow against their arrogant aura and save all of us! Student A spread
out his arms and shouted.
At the side, a snort suddenly came. Delusional!
Student A was enraged and suddenly turned around his face. However, he instantly faltered when
he saw who had come. He dejectedly pulled Student B and fled.
Mu Wu Shang disdainfully stared at the two fleeing figures, but a shadow came over his mood.
His steps grew slightly faster. He quickly reached the lecture room. When he stepped into the
room, a wave of noise blew into his face. He unconsciously frowned.
The terms of prison-breaking battle, and Wasteland Beast Chessboard continuously appeared.
His mood became even more terrible. He noticed that when some students saw him, they
purposefully increased their volume and made expressions in secret.
Mu Wu Shang unconsciously clenched his fists. He snorted coldly, turned and walked out of the
lecture room.
Che, what Genius Alliance, that is a true genius
Yes, yes
The sounds of discussion behind him burrowed into his ears. His face was blackened.
In a depressed mood, Mu Wu Shang flew to Daytime Peak. Right now, it was class time and
there were not many people on Daytime Peak. Standing on the six thousand chi Daytime Peak,
he looked into the distance. Mu Wu Shangs depressed mood instantly eased greatly.
Haha, I guess you were here. A familiar voice came from behind him.
Without needing to turn his head, Wu Mu Shang knew who had come. Jin Ling, his best friend
from childhood. The two were from large clans, and had close relations. The two of them had
played together from very young and could be considered childhood sweethearts. However, the
two of them had developed a platonic friendship, and were like siblings rather than the more
intimate relationship their parents wanted.
Why concern yourself with these people. Jin Ling urged, It seems that we suppress them too
much usually.
Mu Wu Shang did not speak, but his heart eased.
There were two members of Genius Alliance in Bright Might Yao Art House, one was Mu Wu
Shang, the other was Jin Ling. Genius Alliance was a loose organization among students. It was
established four hundred years ago and was created by the twelve top genius students from the
many yao art houses of the yao world.
The Genius Alliance only recruited those with outstanding students. After developing for more
than four centuries, the influence of Genius Alliance was much greater than it started with. In
four centuries, each generations alliance leader of the Genius Alliance was the undoubted leader
of their generation of students. When these geniuses finished their schooling, if they would enter

the important systems of the yao world or they were managing major areas. In its four century
history, nine Sky Yao had appeared among their numbers. This was almost seven-tenths of the
Sky Yao that had appeared over this four century period.
Each student thought it an honour to enter the Genius Alliance, and the scheduled exchanges
inside the alliance was fatally attractive to these people who were cultivating maniacs.
If they could enter the Genius Alliance, they would definitely have a bright future.
However, these great talents also garnered much ire. On one hand, due to thinking highly of
themselves, they were very brazen in their actions, and naturally did not attract favor. On the
other hand, the elders that had already left the Genius Alliance liked to take care of their younger
juniors in the Genius Alliance. This meant that the Genius Alliance was given a great amount of
resources, and caused many yao to feel it was unfair.
The reason that this prison-breaking battle was related to the Genius Alliance was that the Genius
Alliance had been planning on a prison-breaking battle recently. They were used to being highprofile and so this plan had been made public early on so everyone knew.
But at this time, the sudden prison-breaking battle that appeared caused the Genius Alliances
position to be very awkward. Those students that disliked the Genius Alliance before were
naturally happy. The Genius Alliance that had never been in a reactive position before finally
tasted what it was like to be roasted on a fire.
However, these young geniuses were all very proud. How could they swallow this?
Mu Wu Shang was also the same.
Jin Lings tone was light, but she also had a fire suppressed inside.
Suddenly, the spirit imprint on Mu Wu Shangs arm lit up. Mu Wu Shang noticed the Ancient
character inside the light, and a blush came onto his black face. His eyes became excited.
A ball of light floated from the spirit imprint and a face that they were very familiar with showed
up. He said excitedly, Great, both of you are here. Saves me from making another trip. Quick,
come to the Wasteland Beast Chessboard now!
Mu Wu Shang and Jing Ling exchanged looks. They were excited. The Alliance was going to
act!
The two did not waste words and instantly stood to fly with their greatest speed to the cultivation
seclusion rooms. The two each rented a seclusion room, and entered the Wasteland Beast
Chessboard. They quickly found the Alliance.
Forty six yao.
Mu Wu Shang and Jin Ling were all greatly shocked, and then they immediately became excited.
It was possible to see how much the Alliance prioritized this matter when so many alliance
members were present. When they saw the youth that looked very honest at the front, they
couldnt help but become excited again.
He had an very interesting name, Huai Boy. He was one of the supervisors of the Genius
Alliance. Those that had roles inside the Genius Alliance were those that were very powerful,
more powerful than normal members.
Huai Boys appearance was very normal. He always had a smile on his face, appeared to be
harmless, and honest. But today, the smile on Huai Boys smile disappeared. The narrowed eyes
were lit up.
Just received news that the master of the Wasteland Beast Chessboard has challenged us
directly!
Mu Wu Shangs excited expression froze on his face. He looked dazedly at Huai Boy, his mouth
gaping. The other student members all had shocked and disbelieving faces.

Challenging the Genius Alliance!


Was this guy crazy?
This has already been broadcasted by all the major yao channels.
We do not know if someone is scheming and pushing their agenda from the shadows, or if it is
the persons challenge. But this is not important.
Because we will use reality to tell everyone that doubts us.
Who is truly the geniuses!

Like usual, Nan Yue entered the Wasteland Beast Chessboard.


However, today seemed
She looked strangely at the surrounding yao. She noticed that they all seemed to be very excited.
Has something major happened?
Did someone activate the prison breaking battle again? She shook her head and smiled, and felt
amused that she would have such an absurd thought.
I heard that the Genius Alliance are coming to break the Wasteland Beast Chessboard!
This sentence burrowed into Nan Yues ears. Nan Yue shook and felt a basin of cold water had
been poured over her head. What? Genius Alliance wanted to break Darens Wasteland Beast
Chessboard? She focused and listened closely.
Ah? Why is Genius Alliance at odds with the Wasteland Beast Chessboard? I remember now.
They seemed to have said they were going to break a prison before. Had their goal also been Vast
Water Clear Skies?
Ha, you definitely do not know. The one making the challenge is the mystery person!
Mystery person? The owner of the Wasteland Beast Chessboard?
Just that one! Go watch the news, theyre broadcasting it everywhere.
Nan Yue wasnt in the mood to cultivate and immediately left the Wasteland Beast Chessboard.
Her room was just four walls, where would she have the yao news tree? She hurriedly put on an
outer garment, pushed open the door and flew up. She recalled that the center of the city had an
enormous yao news tree.
She saw the yao news tree that reached up to the clouds from a long way off, and adjusted her
direction to fly towards it.
This yao news tree was the largest of the three closest cities. The enormous crown of the tree was
like a small mountain with innumerable forts. Countless vines drooped down from the tree
branches and were heavy with pod-like fruits.
Yao filled all of the yao news tree.
Nan Yue picked a place with few people and landed. When she just steadied her body, her
consciousness wrapped on a thin vine in front of her.
With a pop, the fruit of the yao news tree exploded and turned to a multi-coloured mist.
The rainbow mist quickly changed and became a beautiful female yao. The female yaos
expression was very excited, and spoke very quickly.
The mystery young expert that just finished the prison breaking battle and reconstructed the
Wasteland Beast Chessboard has publicly challenged the Genius Alliance. We are now doing a
special report about this matter. Up until now, the Genius Alliance has not made any formal
statements about this matter, and the new master of the Wasteland Beast Chessboard has not been
seen. However, this matter is definitely not unsubstantiated. Maybe we will soon see a
spectacular struggle

Nan Yues head rang.


Impossible! This was impossible!
Daren definitely would not challenge the Genius Alliance!
This thought was so strong that Nan Yue did not doubt it. She had not spent much time with
Daren, but she did not feel that Daren, from any perspective, would be such an arrogant and
impulsive yao.
There definitely was someone spreading fake information!
Nan Yue was not dumb and instantly understood. However, her expression did not turn for the
better but became even worse. No one was ignorant of the power of the Genius Alliance!
Almost all yao knew what those geniuses were like. Regardless of whether this information was
real, with the conduct of the Genius Alliance, they definitely would not rest!
Why was it like this

Shixiong, move faster, Gongsun Cha said, unsatisfied.


In the fiendish mist, Zuo Mos face instantly fell. After absorbing the soul base source of the
fiend souls, Gongsun Chas speed had increased which caused Zuo Mos fishing to be unable
to keep up.
Zuo Mo was discontent. So noisy! Its good that you even have something to eat!
Tenth Grade flew up and down at the side, his little face slightly distressed.
No, Shixiong, you have to be responsible for satiation since you are responsible for the food!
Gongsun Chas face was rascally.
The corner of Zuo Mos eyes twitched. He forcibly suppressed the impulse to kick Gongsun Cha
away. Suddenly, his gaze focused and he stopped all movement. Raising his face, he looked
towards the deeper parts of the fiendish mist.
Sword essence!
Translator Ramblings: More about yao society beyond what Pu Yao has shown since he was
gone for these modern developments.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Fifty Nine Activation

Chapter Three Hundred and Fifty Nine Activation
Sword essence!
There was sword essence within the fiendish mist!
Zuo Mos eyes flashed. The sword essence coming from the fiendish mist was faint, but he was
sure it wasnt an illusion. Out of caution, he closed his eyes and spread out his consciousness. A
moment later, he opened his eyes. They were ecstatic.
There were people!
There were people inside the fiendish mist!
Nothing could excite him more. He hadnt been this excited even after he completed the prisonbreak battle. Ever since they stepped into this vast, desolate, and mysterious ancient battlefield,

uncertainty and worry had always been clouds over his heart regardless of how calm and
composed he appeared.
There was no sign of life to be seen on this unknown ancient battlefield. This place was silent
and barren, filled with danger. All the signs supported that this was a land of death. The scariest
part of a dead land was the dangers all around it. The impoverished and dangerous environment
meant that Zuo Mo and the others did not even have a chance to breathe.
But now, Zuo Mo suddenly found that there were people existing in a place he assumed was
dead. How could he not be ecstatic? It was like searching endlessly in the darkness, and suddenly
seeing a glimmer of light. At least, they had a chance to rest. Zuo Mo believed that if they had
enough time, they could definitely walk out of the ancient battlefield.
There are people ahead! Zuo Mo pointed excitedly at the depth of the fiendish mist as he said
to Gongsun Cha.
People? Gongsun Cha was stunned. After a moment, he suddenly reacted. There are people
inside?
En. Zuo Mo nodded heavily. Someone is using sword essence in there. In that direction. Its a
bit far from us, but not impossibly so. I can feel it, but it is not very strong.
What should we do? Gongsun Cha hurriedly asked.
Gather everyone, and we will advance in that direction. We need to be fast, or we will miss
them. At this time, Zuo Mo showed the decisiveness of a leader and did not hesitate in issuing
instructions.

Wei Sheng stared at the fiend soul beast in front of him, the black sword in his hand slightly
raised. However, his heart sank slightly. The body of this fiend soul beast was longer than three
zhang. It was shaped like a scorpion. Between the two pincers, he was able to see the crisscrossing teeth that sent chills through his heart.
Its body was completely covered in shiny, black armour covered with red seal scripts that curved
like earthworms. There were two dark red dots for eyes that lit up in the fiendish mist, and
shocked ones soul.
Its body was close to the ground, the two pincers slightly raised as a dark and vicious presence
tightly locked onto Wei Sheng.
This fiend soul beast had silently closed in with intentions of ambushing him. If it wasnt for the
fact that Wei Sheng cultivation level had progressed greatly, his sword essence spiritually clear
and taken to heart, Wei Sheng himself was not sure he could survive after an ambush by such a
vicious beast.
However, Wei Sheng did not panic due to his shock. He was not willing to show weakness, and
his sword essence locked onto the other.
This fiend soul scorpion seemed to know the prey in front of it should not be underestimated. It
did not dare to move rashly, and it seemed very wary of the great black sword in Wei Sheng
hands.
The two descended into a stand off.
Wei Sheng closely watched the fiend soul scorpion, the black sword in his hand did not tremble
at all. He had killed his every step the entire way on his trip through the fiendish mist. After
continuous, hard battles, his body was very tired and at the end of its strength. The black sword
seemed to lose its spirit. The aura had gradually faded. This caused Wei Sheng to feel it
progressing was even harder, and basically had left him no opportunity to rest.

The exhaustion of his body was like a tide, wave after wave crashing against Wei Shengs mental
defenses. Suddenly, Wei Sheng recalled the time when he had been a sword servant. Just with his
simple and crude sword art, he had been searching for his sword path in the wilderness.
At that time, he had been so innocent and so satisfied!
There were no conflicts inside the sect, no unspoken criticism about the sect, no other thoughts.
He was like the sword in his hand, simple to the utmost.
He lightly sighed.
There were many matters in the world that people were helpless against, could not brush off or
dodge. Like this patch of fiendish mist. It continuously corroded his ling power. Now he
understood why so many xiuzhe would stay in a distance place away from the troubles of the
world.
As Wei Shengs mind was distracted, the cunning and vicious fiend soul scorpion instantly seized
at a chance.
The glowing red eyes drew out two soul-shaking streaks in the fiendish mist. The speed of the
fiend soul scorpion was like lightning. It was so fast, and the sound was so muffled that there
wasnt even a vibration in the air.
Wei Shengs heart was shocked. He knew he was in an unprecedentedly dangerous situation.
When he had sighed just now, he instantly knew. That the wandering thought was a sign of
extreme danger. It mean that his body was weak to the point of collapsing which was why his
mental defenses had been so lax.
But he had not expected this vicious beast to be so sensitive and cunning to accurately seize this
chance!
His wrist flipped, and the horse-chopping sabre that was up to Wei Shengs chest seemed to be as
light as air as it block in front of his chest.
Dong!
Among the sound of steel striking, Wei Shengs body shook and he retreated seven steps.
Wei Sheng grimaced inside. If his condition wasnt so poor, then he wouldnt have retreated even
one step under such a force. But his endurance, and ling power had reached their tail ends. His
battle experience was rich and he knew that the vicious beast in front of him was cunning and
deceitful. It definitely had detected that he was weak inside.
As expected, the red light of the fiend soul scorpion exploded. It did not attack but like before, it
dashed forward.
Such a cautious beast!
Wei Sheng did not have the time to finish praising it when a great force passed over. He made a
muffled grunt, and took ten steps back before he steadied his figure.
Was he going to be buried here today?
Wei Sheng sighed inside.
Only now did the fiend soul scorpion truly confirm that Wei Sheng had reached his last legs. It
attacked without hesitation. It was very cunning, and knew that Wei Sheng had almost no
strength left, so it tried to use brute force to destroy Wei Sheng.
Dong dong dong!
The sound of impacts were endless like a tempest.
Wei Sheng struggled to endure like a little boat in a hurricane, suddenly moving up and down as
though he could be swallowed by the waves at any moment. The attacks of the fiend soul
scorpion were relentless and as fast as lightning. Wei Sheng was surrounded by danger. The

already tattered clothing at this time was destroyed by the small yet sharp turbulence like
butterflies in flight.
A stream of blood came from the corner of Wei Shengs mouth. The ling power in his body was
drained, his channels started to crack. He would not be able to persist for much longer, as his
channels would shatter into countless pieces, and his cultivation would instantly collapse.
The black sword that had seemed vicious before was like a dull sword of ordinary metal without
any sheen.
Was he really going to lose his life here?
Wei Sheng was in a daze, his moves slow as though he could fall at any moment. Yet
unexpectedly, after more than ten continuous attacks, he was still standing, barely. If one looked
closely, they would find that when the fiend soul scorpions pair of pincers was going to strike
him, the black sword in his hand would coincidentally appear in front of the giant pincers.
The moment his body was in danger, Wei Sheng would always make an instinctive response.
Without conscious thought, without ling power, his mind was completely blank.
Dong dong dong
The hurricane was ongoing, so long it made one feel hopeless.
Yet the scene was filled with weirdness. Wei Shengs eyes were wooden, empty and without
thought, his movements were slow. Yet the instant the giant pincers were going to touch his body,
his hesitation would disappear. His movements would be unspeakably simple and crisp, but
when paired with his wooden expression, it was even stranger.
It was as though if one more straw was added to his load, Wei Sheng would fall.
But no matter how the fiend soul scorpion tried, even when the giant pincers tore the air apart in
their attacks, they were stopped by Wei Sheng movements that were filled with strangeness.

Nan Yue stood on the borderless Wasteland Beast Chessboard.


She bit her lips tightly. Just on her way here, she had already seen seven groups of people from
the Genius Alliance. The Genius Alliance did not have any intentions of disguising its retaliation.
Dozens of the Genius Alliance Supervisors continued to announce that they would definitely
break the Wasteland Beast Chessboard.
The Genius Alliance were usually high-profile, but declaring such a thing in public had never
happened before. Anyone with eyes could see the master of the Wasteland Beast Chessboard had
infuriated the Genius Alliance. A guy that offended the Genius Alliance, what good outcome
would he have?
How could Nan Yue, who had been hearing of the Genius Alliance since she was very young, not
know this? Before, the Genius Alliance was a place that was high and out of reach. She did not
dare to even think of having a connection with the Genius Alliance, much less entering it.
But in a night, the Genius Alliance actually became her enemy. How could she not feel terror?
She knew they were targeting Daren; but as Darens follower, Darens enemies were her
enemies!
She felt great pressure from the groups of Genius Alliance members that appeared on the
Wasteland Beast Chessboard.
Nan Yue did not know how many yao were paying attention to the Wasteland Beast Chessboard,
but she could clearly feel that there were multiple times more yao at the Wasteland Beast
Chessboard than there were normally.
Hey, has there been a result?

No. Supposedly, the Genius Alliance of Fixed Sky Jie have come. This is going to be something
good to see.
Fixed Sky Jie also came? Then isnt it already six jie that have come?
Its the eighth jie! Central Pond Jie and Lilium Jie also came.
Wow, this scary?
Yes, none of the Genius Alliance is willing to be defeated. How can they rest? In my view, even
if this matter concluded here, this conflict wont end!
In your view, who do you favor?
Its hard to say. On the surface, the Genius Alliance of course has the advantage, but a person
that set down the Wasteland Beast Chessboard, can he be a nice guy? Only idiots would believe
such a thing! Look at how many people came from the Genius Alliance, but no one has activated
the prison-breaking battle
Hearing the discussion drifting into her hears, Nan Yue felt unspeakably irritated and fretful.
Which damned guys dared to slander Daren. They should be slowly sliced to death!
At this time, a wave of sound suddenly came over.
Prison-breaking battle!
Someone activated the prison-breaking battle!
The soundwave came from far and rolled over. Nan Yues head rang and blanked.
Her face was pale as she was stunned where she stood.
The yao in the surroundings hated that they were born without two more legs as they furiously
charged towards the prison battlefield. Countless yao of different shapes formed a flood towards
the prison battlefield.
Nan Yue was sandwiched in the middle and uncontrollably followed the flood towards the prison
battlefield.
How was it possible how was
Was the Genius Alliance really this powerful?
Her expression was filled with hopelessness!
Translator Ramblings: A string of Lil Cliffy. I think Lil Cliffy is breeding
Zuo Mo thinks there are inhabitants on this jie, Wei Sheng is now in danger and Nan Yue fears
for her daren. So many points of view in a chapter.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three

Chapter Three Hundred and Sixty Start
I didnt think that someone would activate the prison-breaking battle so quickly. It is slightly
unexpected to me, Qian Liu said with a smile.
The fire-faced person twisted his mouth. Youre the only one interested in this low-level stuff.
However, he had a proud expression, my skill isnt bad.
Utmost base. Qian Liu did not hesitate in giving his opinion.
But very effective. The pride on the fire-faced person did not decrease in the slightest.
Qian Liu was too lazy to speak and stared at the prison battlefield.


Huai Boy vigilantly paid attention to his surroundings.
The supervisors of the Genius Alliance were set for each jie, each jie had one supervisor. This
year, Huai Boy was twenty, and his strength and talent was undisputed to be able to become a
supervisor of the Genius Alliance. However, Huai Boy had not thought that he would activate the
prison-breaking battle. Of the eight supervisors that had entered the Wasteland Beast Chessboard,
in terms of power, he was ranked in the middle.
However, he quickly reacted, and was very excited. This was a chance from the Heavens!
There were not many rules in the Genius Alliance, but being rewarded for ones service was the
one upheld the strictest. There had been nine Sky Yao to come out of the Genius Alliance, and
five of them had left yao arts behind for the Genius Alliance. This was added onto the wondrous
techniques and strange arts that the generations of alliance leaders had collected, which were all
stored in a yao art tree in the center of the yao realm. This tree surpassed any yao art tree from
any yao art house.
This was a place that all yao dreamed of. Huai Boy was not an exception. Huai Boy came from
Ying Wind Scholar Clan. It was one of the major clans locally, but in all of the yao realm, it
could only be considered middling. The [Blue Thorn Secret Art] was a very good yao art, but
Huai Boy did not feel satisfied.
He had become a supervisor of the Genius Alliance at such a young age and had great ambitions.
No one, in the Scholar Clans history, had become a sky yao by cultivating [Blue Thorn Secret
Art]. How could he be satisfied? The clan did not withhold any resources when nurturing him,
and used all kinds of methods to collect even more powerful yao arts for him. However, each of
the top yao arts were peerless in value. After so many years, they still were unable to acquire a
top yao art.
Prison-breaking battle, no matter what, he had to achieve victory! Huai Boy made a resolution.
This service would probably be able to be traded for a pretty good yao art.
Come!
Huai Boys eyes lit up, and he was full of fighting spirit.

The procession of boats silently and rapidly progressed in the fiendish mist.
Of the five slave transporting boats, the slave transporting boat of Golden Crow Camp was at the
very center. The formation scripts on the body of the boat released faint light. The Crimson Fiend
Cauldron continuously transformed the fiendish mist into ling power, and guided it into the
formations carved on the boat.
Compared to when it was made, the Crimson Fiend Cauldron was much smaller now. This was
due to being used day and night without an moment of rest. The ling power transformed by the
Crimson Fiend Cauldron, a fifth-grade talisman, was not just vast and rich, it was of high quality.
As it worked day and night, this rich and pure ling power was a small fire that finely baked the
cauldron and continuously processed it.
The Crimson Fiend Cauldron was created by everyone of Golden Crow Camp, and it was
unprecedented in its invention. However, many parts of the Crimson Fiend Cauldron could not
help but be somewhat heterogeneous due to the differences in cultivation of Sun Bao, Ji Wei, and
the others. After a long period of ling power forging, the impurities of the Crimson Fiend

Cauldron were slowly processed, and its quality was higher than before, but its size shrunk
greatly.
Zuo Mo was standing at the bow of the slave transporting boat at the very front. His gaze was
fixed into the mist. The formations of the boat reflected light on his tense face, and flickered.
Beside him, A Gui propped up her chin and copied Zuo Mo to look into the distance.
A Guis wounds were clearly recovering, and her face gradually had some expression, even
though it was still very wooden.
Woosh woosh woosh.
There were hardship guards in black armor that ran around constantly on their patrol. Their
expressions were watchful, and they were all hardship guards that had that had created their
weapons. A Wen ran at the very front with the black spear in his hand. The bright red tassel was
like a flame flickering in the wind.
These Guard Camp elite that had finished forming their weapons were like fish in the water
among the fiendish mist. They also became the primary combat force.
Gongsun Cha led the Vermillion Bird Camp, Shu Long led the Guard Camp, Xie Shan was on
the last slave transporting boat as the rear guard. In the remaining slave transporting boat, Ma
Fan sat on top of the boat. The other people of the Sky Peak Platoon were scattered around the
boat. After the epiphany last time, Ma Fans sword essence had reached manifestation, and the
suppression the fiendish mist had on him was minimized.
Everyone seemed to be on their guard, their expressions heavy. A murderous presence was thick
and roiling among the troop like an enormous beast slowly travelling close to the ground without
hurry or slowness.
Even though he was in a hurry to find the person inside the fiendish mist, but Zuo Mo knew very
well how dangerous the depths of the fiendish mist were. He did not dare to move without
forethought. In such a dangerous territory, the slightest bit of carelessness could cause all of them
to die.
Lil Pagoda and Lil Fire nervously burrowed into A Guis arms. Lil Black had a death grip on A
Guis hair. Silly Birds expression was unconcerned. The tense situation did not invoke any
response from her. Tenth Grade floated on the black antennae of the twin butterfly, the
murderous and cold little face showing yearning.
It was strange to speak of it. A ball of faint white mist still hung at the end of the white antennae
of the twin butterfly and showed no signs of becoming tangible.
Tenth Grade was born from the twin butterfly absorbing black fiendish energy. Rather than being
afraid of the fiendish mist, he felt it was very intimate. However, his sense of danger was more
sensitive than normal xiuzhe. The deeps of the fiendish mist gave him a strong feeling of danger,
so much that he did not dare to go deep in. He was proud, but he was not stupid. After fishing
with Zuo Mo and Gongsun Cha these past days, Tenth Grade had an even clearer understanding
of the fiendish mists dangers.
Of course, most important was that the unreasonable and vicious bird was at the side
Tenth Grade glanced out of the corner of his eye at Silly Bird whose eyes were closed in rest, and
instinctively shrunk his neck.
There are people in such a damned place? Lei Peng rumbled, and could not understand.
Maybe it is the lost descendants of ancient cultivators. Nian Lu brushed his bangs and fully
expressed his imagination.
Ancient cultivator descendants
The people in the surroundings groaned. This guy had read too many legends and rumors.

Lei Pengs gaze landed on the hardship guards that were moving nimbly and was filled with
admiration. This poor place really has a finger on our weak spot. But the Guard Camp, they are
having a really good time! Even an wants to go cultivate [Hardship Guard].
They were cultivating [Fiend Ling] but due to the short time cultivating it, they could just
manage to defend against the corrosion of the fiendish mist. The fiendish mist that was filled
with danger towards them wasnt just harmless against Guard Camp, but was beneficial. How
could these people that were long used to leading the charge not be jealous?
Dont be jealous of them! Nian Lu adjusted his clothing and said, You can copy the Captain.
When your sword essence reaches the level of manifestation, you cannot be corroded by
anything. The measly fiendish mist is naturally not an exception.
Lei Peng was speechless.
There seemed to be an invisible wall around Ma Fans body. The red-black fiendish mist could
not enter the area around him. Everyone did not feel any ling power rippling which meant that
Captain had not used ling power. This area had naturally formed after Ma Fan achieved sword
essence manifestation.
However, compared to starting from the beginning and cultivating [Hardship Guard], the
difficulty of reaching sword essence manifestation was even higher. Unless they cultivated to
jindan, it wasnt just any normal monster that could reach sword essence manifestation in
ningmai. But even from ningmai to jindan, the difficulty involved
Blast it! Lei Peng shot out an angry breath.
While everyone felt somewhat suppressed at not being able to charge at the very front, but they
also felt slight anticipation. If there really were xiuzhe inside the fiendish mist, then that meant
they also could use their full power within the fiendish mist. They had persisted in practicing
[Fiend Ling] but they needed to reach the third level before they could directly transform the
fiend mist into ling power.
Before that, while they still could absorb fiendish mist and transform it to ling power, the rate
was very slow. That was fine for cultivation, but during battle, that meant that their ling power
would basically be unreplenished.
Many of them put their hopes on the xiuzhe inside the fiendish mist.
Ping!
A crisp collision sound occurred on the outside.
Everyones expressions changed. Enemy attack!
This was the first attack they had encountered up until now. No one had good expressions. They
had just travelled fifty li into the fiendish mist, and started to encounter attacks from unknown
and vicious beings. The dangers up ahead could be imagined.
The one that encountered the enemy was A Wen.
A Wens eyes tracked the unknown and vicious beast in front of him. This vicious being was
shaped like a tiger or panther, the long and nimble figure filled with beauty. Its entire body was
covered in thick metal-hard scales in layers and gleamed with a cold light. The paws on the
ground had hooked and sharp claws that effortlessly dug into the soil. The eyes were set deep,
the cheekbones protruded, but there were no eyeballs in the sockets, only red light.
When A Wens gaze came into contact with the red light inside the eyes of the vicious being, he
felt his body tighten, and was shocked inside.
Zuo Mos gaze landed on the vicious beast. Thinking about what Pu Yao had said to him before,
he asked, This is a fiend soul beast?

Yes. Pu Yaos tone did not have the aloofness it usually did and was filled with gravity. Such
a powerful fiend soul beast! This fiendish mist has been through an unknown amount of time.
Ive never seen black fiendish mist of such intensity, and have never heard of it. This fiendish
soul beast surpasses any fiend soul beast of my knowledge. You need to be careful.
Zuo Mo was shocked. This grave tone could be said to be very rare for Pu Yao.
A strong feeling of danger formed but Zuo Mo forcibly suppressed it. He decided to see just how
powerful this fiendish soul beast really was.

A Wen was a lucky survivor of the dueling stadium and had experienced many cruel battles. The
fiend soul beast in front of him gave him enormous pressure but did not cause him to lose his
calm.
A cold feeling came from the black spear. He suddenly had a burst of confidence. In the dueling
stadium, he had defeated many opponents stronger than him, and now, he was stronger than
before!
The expression on the handsome face silently changed. Killing essence rose, his eyes vicious, a
thick black mist came from the thenar space where he grasped his black spear, and like a black
snake, it coiled around the black spear.
His presence suddenly exploded, his vicious eyes glaring as he shouted lowly, Kill!
The black spear in his hand was held flat and thrust forward without finesse.
Translator Ramblings: Lil Cliffy is going to invade in the next few chapters and I am on
rationed internet though I am very grateful for cheap mobile data.
Someone was right, it is the fire-faced person who was manipulating all this. The Grey Clan is
too insignificant to be able to do this.

World of Cultivation Chapter Three


Hundred and Sixty One The
Childhood Wish
This chapter has been brought to you by me and WanderingGummiOfDoom.
Chapter Three hundred and Sixty One The Childhood Wish
Yi Zheng cut a sorry figure.
His blue monk robe was in tatters as he staggered forward, lacking any of the usual grace that the
sect taught him. However, who would care about grace at this time?
He had never ever thought that the most normal sect mission would take him to such a ghastly
place. Many times, he had thought that he had come to the Avci Hell that only appeared on the
records. Fortunately, he had worked hard on his cultivation these years, and with Eldest
Shixiongs focused teaching, while his combat abilities were not strong, his body of steel tendons
and metal bones was unrivalled.
By relying on his great defensive abilities, he had managed to survive in this endless mist until
now.

Before, he had not understood why Eldest Shixiong made him cultivate [Wisdom Dhyana Body],
but now he felt the wonders of this dhyana technique. A circle of Buddhist script whirled around
his body without rest. This was why the corrosive fiendish mist did not infect his body.
Impervious to all evils impervious to all evils
Yi Zheng continuously chanted. Beads of sweat could be clearly seen on his shiny and clean
head. He had entered this mist for just three days, but in these three days, his heart jumped
around, and he was very afraid. He was a dhyana xiu, and most sensitive to corrupt, yin and
fiendish beings. But this fiendish mist in front of him was endless, and it was so dense it was
almost unimaginable.
Other than hell, Yi Zheng really could not think of a place that would have such vicious fiends.
Fortunately, his Wisdom Dhyana Body could naturally subdue these corrupt beings. Even though
he had struggled on his way, but he was not wounded. However, his heart did not dare relax.
Even the records of the sect had never mentioned such a vicious place. The vicious beings it
formed would definitely be terrifying.
Exterminate evil?
Dont joke. Yi Zheng was very clearly how much he was worth. He believed it was a miracle that
he had not been wounded up until now. Right now, he could only hope that the news of his
disappearance would quickly arrive to the sect, and the sect would send people to rescue him.
Actually, at the bottom of his heart, he also knew that chances were very small.
He was only a person at the borders of the sect. He did know how long it would take for the sect
to respond after his disappearance.
He thought about Eldest Shixiong, thought about how Eldest Shixiong would be further neglected
now that he was not in the sect. His mood instantly became slightly low.
He aimlessly travelled through the fiendish mist.
After walking for a short while, sounds of fierce combat could be heard from up ahead. Yi Zheng
was startled awake. After pausing, he was overjoyed, and ran with bare feet towards the sound.
The sound of battle became clearer.
He quickly saw a man fighting fiercely with a fiend soul scorpion.
He carefully walked closer. When he saw the scorpion closely, he couldnt help but inhale
sharply. More than three zhang tall and two pincers, each the size of a door. Yi Zheng felt his
scalp become numb. If he was grazed by those enormous pincers, even his Wisdom Dhyana
Body definitely would be unable to tolerate it.
My dear Buddha!
Yi Zheng swallowed with difficulty. His gaze seemed to be glued and unable to be moved away.
It was not due to the great strength of the scorpion, but how strange the scene was.
The scorpions opponent was a sword xiu. Even though the black sword looked more like a horse
chopping sabre, but Yi Zheng recognized that the other was a sword xiu at first glance, and a
very traditional sword xiu.
Such a strong sword xiu!
Yi Zheng was greatly alarmed. He recognized the origins of this scorpion. Fiend soul beast, this
was a fiend soul beast, a vicious being born from the fiendish mist! He had previously been
worried that the corrupt grounds would produce something extraordinary, but upon seeing this
fiend soul scorpion, he finally realized just how powerful these vicious beings created were!
If Yi Zhengs mind was clear now, his face would be pale and alarmed, but at this moment, his
gaze was completely attracted by this odd looking battle.

The expression of the sword xiu was dull, as though he was ill, his movements were slow and his
gaze wooden
Every time the enormous pincers of the fiend soul scorpion were about to tear the sword xiu in
half, his slow movements would suddenly become nimble, and stop the giant pincer by a hair.
The confused expression on the sword xius face, the dull and slow responses, and the sudden
nimbleness formed a strong contrast and was very weird.
After watching for a few moments, Yi Zheng felt his ling power roil and showed signs of losing
control. He paled greatly. In terms of the peacefulness of ling power, dhyana xiu were blessed by
the heavens. His ling power was going wild just because he was watching someone else fight?
Yi Zheng started his core scripture before he dared to look back at the battle.
The signs of his ling power escaping his control instantly disappeared.
Yi Zheng exhaled. His eyes returned to the person and scorpion that were fighting. The
amazement on his face increased. He looked at the sword xiu as though he was looking at a
ghost. Before, he had thought that the sword xiu was in danger, and would be killed at anytime.
Now that he saw it clearly, he found to his shock that there seemed to be an invisible stickiness to
the sword xius black sword. The vicious fiend soul scorpion was like a puppet manipulated by
many strings and was struggling in this invisible force.
A terrifying sword essence!
Yi Zheng could not detect the sword xius sword essence at all. At this moment, he admired this
sword xius strength greatly. It wasnt that he had not encountered sword xiu before, but it was
the first time he had seen one so powerful. Also, the other seemed close in age to him. So young
and possessing such power, it definitely was an accomplished disciple of a large sword
cultivating sect.
Was he a disciple of Kun Lun?
Once he saw the state of the situation clearly, Yi Zheng was not in a hurry anymore, and thought
about how he would exchange greetings with the person later. He was slightly stuck. This was
his first time off the mountain, and he had no experience to speak of.
However, being able to encounter a xiuzhe in such a dangerous place, Yi Zheng felt his luck was
already pretty good.
After a while, the battle still had not finished. Now Yi Zheng saw that something was wrong.
The sword xius expression was confused and showed no signs of waking up.
Was he
Yi Zheng was daring but paid attention to details. His mind moved. After waiting another
moment and seeing the situation did not turn for the better, he thought for an instant and then
started to chant in a low voice.

Countless scenes flashed across Wei Shengs eyes. They were mirages and shadows, but they
were also so clear.
The resolution he made as a child, the pursuit of it without fear through dangers, through
hardships, sustaining wounds, comprehending the sword at the waterfall, becoming the Eldest
Disciple, drinking alcohol with Zuo Shidi under the stars, the order from the sect
Countless scenes merged together and suddenly formed an enormous net that swept over him.
There was no place to escape or dodge.

The net grew tighter and restrained him. He felt he could not breathe. The feeling of suffocation
filled his entire body. He was like a fish in the net. The more he struggled, the tighter the net was.
Why?
Why was it like this?
I only wanted to cultivate the sword
A burst of anger suddenly came from deep in his heart. He was like a beast trapped in a net that
struggled fruitlessly.
Why why
It was like a silent shout, a furious bellow.
Why why ..
He shouted at the top of his lungs, he wailed sorrowfully.
In a daze, he dreamed of a patch of stars. In the dark night, the stars in the sky were numerous. A
light wind brushed across an empty wilderness. The faint Blue Sparrow-Tailed grasses swayed in
the wind.
A child about seven or eight years old was sleeping amongst the grass. Raising his head to look
at the lights streaking across the sky, the tender child voice carried deep amazement. So
beautiful!
The child jumped up from the grass. The wind brushed across his face and revealed his glittering
eyes.
A seed was silently planted in the heart of the child.
The dream was so real, as though he could touch it, but distant like how the moon reflected in the
waters surface. At this moment, Wei Sheng was like a statue. He looked dazedly at the child.
Suddenly, something seemed to burst in his heart, and something came forth.
The distance and unfamiliar childhood memory suddenly floated into his mind. Some reasons he
had forgotten, those simple thoughts, they were like the Blue Sparrow Tailed grass seeds bursting
from their shells, germination, and then growing.
Yes, my dream is to cultivate the sword.
A pure dream, a pure pursuit, a wish that a child made under the stars.
A strange relaxation came into his mind. The feeling of suffocation disappeared without a trace.
Wei Sheng looked entranced at the child underneath the stars. A slightly smile came onto his
face, and warmth was shoved into his chest.
Yes, it all came from this affection.
The complex and common mortal matters that made him feel helpless seemed so small, so
insignificant.
He opened his eyes, his gaze was clear without any impurity.
Ling power suddenly flooded from his dry channels like water sprouting from a spring. When
this new ling power passed, the parts of his channels that had been wounded instantly became
filled with life like a tree welcoming spring.
The ling power that followed out was endless. In a short period of time, his ling power had
reached his best state. However, the ling power showed no signs of stopping. They continued to
rush into Wei Shengs channels, and filled every bit of the channels.
When all of Wei Shengs channels were filled with ling power, the new ling power started to
progress towards his dantian.
Wei Sheng did not stop it. He did not do a thing. But that pair of eyes became even bright in the
fiendish mist. It was filled with joy, joy from the heart.
A faint light covered the black sword in his hand.

The fiendish mist around him seemed to suddenly be pushed by an enormous force, pushed far
from Wei Sheng and vanished in the blink of an eye.
Yi Zheng gaped as he looked at what was happening and even forgot to continue chanting.
Crack.
The fiend soul beast shattered into dozens of pieces without warning and dropped to the ground.
The cuts were peerlessly smooth. Even that pair of unbreakable pincers were dismembered into
several sections.
A sword shadow appeared behind Wei Sheng.
The shadow of the sword went from blurry to clear, and continued to grow. In a few dozen
breaths, the sword figure was dozens of zhang tall.
The tip of the sword pointed at the sky. It showed no signs of stopping. It broke through the
fiendish mist as though it was going to pierce the sky.
Under the colossal sword shadow, Wei Sheng stood majestically.
Thunder rolled through the fiendish mist, tens of thousands of fiend soul beasts howled
simultaneously. The blood red sky seemed to boil.
A worldly apparition!
Translator Ramblings: I think the likelihood of chance encounters are pretty low for Yi Zheng to
find Wei Sheng but Fang Xiang has written it this way. Wei Shengs reason to pursue the sword
has been showcased and this almost seems a higher motivation than wanting to make money
it seems a much more heroic reason.
Second day of rationed internet a week or so to go.
