Chapter 2970: Getting More and More Lively!
Nian Hongyan agreed with unusual swiftness because she knew very well that she had no right to choose at all!
No matter what he wanted to do with her, the best course was to simply obey—that was the only way to survive!
And only by surviving could there be hope. Fortunately, this senior didn't force himself on her, or she really wouldn't have known how to handle it!
Jiangnan casually tossed all the treasures he had looted to Nian Hongyan!
(๑◔～◔ิ) "Here—carry these for me!"
Nian Hongyan took them with a bewildered look. Why was this senior stuffing all the treasures he'd plundered into her hands?
Wasn't he afraid she'd pull some tricks?
But on second thought, with his level of existence, he probably couldn't be bothered with this junk, right?
Still, Nian Hongyan didn't dare secretly keep any treasures for herself—unless she wanted to die!
Then Jiangnan randomly pulled out a scroll and stuffed it into Nian Hongyan's hands:
(͡°～͡°)✧ "Read this. Tell me what's inside, then explain it to me."
Nian Hongyan blinked, then obediently complied. She pressed the scroll against her forehead, white light flared from it, and her spiritual sense poured into her consciousness.
(∗❛ั◠❛ั∗) "Senior! This is an extremely rare sacred-grade pill formula. It contains eleven different recipes, including Union Dust Powder, Heaven-Saint Pill, Body-Tempering Pill, Bloodburst Pill, and so on. Do you need me to explain each one to you?"
"If Senior doesn't need them, these precious formulas could fetch a sky-high price at auction—they're still very useful!"
Jiangnan was speechless. It was a pill formula? What the hell would he do with pill formulas?
"No need. Go through all the scrolls in these cosmos pouches, read them all, then sort out any secret techniques or cultivation methods related to soul refinement and tell me about them."
Nian Hongyan was dumbfounded. Huh? She had to read them all?
Didn't that mean she'd also learn everything?
These scrolls were plundered from numerous Cross-Domain-level experts, each one incredibly precious. Even if she risked her life, she couldn't have gotten her hands on them. Now she was being allowed to read them all?
And then she had to recount them to him?
(๑◔﹏◔ิ) "Senior, why don't you..." She caught herself. "Sorry, Senior, I asked something I shouldn't have. Yes, I'll organize it right away!"
Nian Hongyan was very smart. She knew not to ask about things she shouldn't, that knowing too much meant dying sooner.
Just obey obediently!
Besides, this might be a test of her trustworthiness—she had to do it well!
So Nian Hongyan immediately began sorting through the treasures Jiangnan had plundered.
Jiangnan rubbed his hands together, his eyes gleaming with light.
Fully automatic learning assistant engaged—mom would never have to worry about his studies again!
Just keep sweeping through!
Next, Jiangnan led Nian Hongyan through the spatial maze, looting everything thoroughly, stripping it all bare with incredible efficiency.
Nian Hongyan's mouth twitched. What kind of hobby was this? Even in the brutal cultivation world, people who killed and robbed didn't strip their victims of their clothes!
This senior cleaned them out completely!
Looking around, the spatial maze was a mess of bare bodies—it was truly an eyesore!
As time passed, boat after boat of rogue cultivators arrived, forced to charge into the spatial maze, trying to figure out the pattern of its changes based on the positions.
But it was all useless—this thing had no pattern at all!
The scene grew more and more lively, which thrilled Jiangnan—he was having a blast looting!
Before long, two more giant immortal boats arrived.
The newcomers were none other than Array Ghost King and Illusion Pavilion Fairy.
When they saw the celestial palace phantom in the Demon Pupil Star System, their eyes went wide!
Array Ghost King laughed heartily:
(◞･ˇꇴˇ･) "Spirit Puppet, Divine Pupil—so I'm benefiting from you two this time?"
"If the harvest is good, there'll be a heavy reward!"
Spirit Puppet Master wiped cold sweat from his brow:
(•́﹏•̀٥) "Not at all, not at all! The moment we discovered this Qingcheng Immortal's cave, the first person we thought of was you, venerable one!"
"As for rewards, you don't need to mention them—what slips through your fingers is enough to last us brothers a lifetime!"
Array Ghost King grinned, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth: "Enough with the flattery. If you could handle it yourselves, would you still remember me?"
Divine Pupil's forehead dripped sweat:
(꒪ㅂ꒪‧̣̥̇) "Array Ghost Senior, there are still quite a few of our elders and disciples trapped in this formation—we're counting on you!"
Array Ghost King's eyes burned with fervor: "Easy, easy! Illusion Pavilion Fairy, I'll leave the concealment to you. Such a commotion—don't let those Dao Sects catch wind of it!"
Illusion Pavilion Fairy giggled: "Breaking restrictions is your specialty; I won't meddle. But you'd better hurry—if word reaches Crimson Umbrella Immortal Venerable, neither of us will get a share!"
As she spoke, Illusion Pavilion Fairy pulled a silk handkerchief from her bosom!
She tossed it into the starry sky!
The handkerchief expanded wildly, and behind her, a fairy phantom radiating golden light materialized, emitting an extremely strong force of will!
Under her control, the handkerchief grew large enough to cover the entire Demon Pupil Star System!
A starry sky illusion formed on it, blocking the golden light of the celestial palace!
Array Ghost King smiled: "No need to remind me. Just watch—there's no immortal restriction I can't crack, as long as it has a solution!"
"Immortal Paper Cranes, scatter!"
He waved his sleeve, and countless pure white paper cranes burning with spiritual flames flew out!
One became two, two became four!
In an instant, they became billions of paper cranes, still multiplying!
All of them charged into the spatial maze at once!
The next moment, Array Ghost King pointed with his finger!
A spiritual array disk materialized, and the positions of all the paper cranes were displayed on it. With deduction, figuring out the changing pattern should be easy!
Moreover, as long as one paper crane successfully escaped the maze, Array Ghost King was confident he could break the void immortal restriction!
But the moment the immortal paper cranes rushed into the spatial maze, Array Ghost King nearly spat out a mouthful of old blood, his eyes bulging!
(ଵ口ଵ|||) "Pft—puff! What kind of hellish immortal restriction is this? A clothes-stripping immortal restriction?"
Were the rogue cultivators inside stripped clean or what?
Illusion Pavilion Fairy tilted her head:
(๑•̌.•̑)ˀ̣ˀ̣ "What immortal restriction? Is that the name of this barrier formation?"
Array Ghost King chuckled to himself, "Hehehehe..." He thought he'd found something good!
(΄◞ิ〰◟ิ‵) "You don't understand. Or rather, you'll understand if you go in—hehehe..."
But soon he couldn't laugh anymore, because the array disk showed that the spatial maze had no pattern at all—all changes were random!
How was he supposed to crack that?
The array disk's deduction was smoking, and even Array Ghost King broke out in cold sweat!
"As expected of Qingcheng Immortal's work—I must not have observed enough!"
"Array Ghost, emerge!"
Behind Array Ghost King, a massive black will divine shadow appeared, its power surging. The wings of the flying immortal paper cranes emitted black light, even tearing the spatial barrier!
Meanwhile, Jiangnan stood in the spatial maze, watching the two will shadows with bright eyes!
(◦✧▿✧) "Just as I thought?"
So Array Ghost King and Illusion Pavilion Fairy were Eternal Realm beings, equivalent to Star Devourers!
Given their level, being able to condense such solid will divine shadows was absurd!
Over here, these will divine shadows were called primordial spirits—their "Incarnation Realm" referred to manifesting the primordial spirit!
Wait—the Incarnation Realm was equivalent to Starlight! Starlight could already condense a prototype will divine shadow?
Cultivation was truly amazing!
The development of the force of will here was far beyond that of the Myriad Races Starry Sky World!
But that didn't mean the combat power of Star Devourers there was inferior to Eternal Realm cultivators here.
At the very least, Jiangnan hadn't noticed any development of personal domains here.
In the end, they were two different systems—each had its strengths!
Nian Hongyan's face had turned pale. Both Array Ghost King and Illusion Pavilion Fairy were legendary figures in the Rogue Cultivator Alliance!
After all, reaching the Eternal Realm already put one at the peak of the cultivation world!
As for the Creation Realm—that was beyond imagination!
Now two of them had shown up, and she had no idea how this mysterious senior would handle it!
(•́﹏•̀٥) "Senior, these two are members of the Rogue Cultivator Alliance's Elder Council—Array Ghost King and Illusion Pavilion Fairy. Both are powers that shake entire regions!"
"Perhaps my reminder is redundant, but I must say—Senior, you must be careful!"
"Moreover, if you act against these two, Crimson Umbrella Immortal Venerable will certainly not sit idly by. As the alliance leader of the Rogue Cultivator Alliance, he's a Creation Realm existence!"
"His strength may even surpass some Creation Realm ancestors of the Six Great Dao Sects. Otherwise, he wouldn't have built such a vast foundation for the Rogue Cultivator Alliance!"
After all, this was the cultivation world—beat the young, and the old come; beat the old, and the even older come.
If things went smoothly, you could beat up someone's entire lineage of eighteen generations and reunite the whole family!
Jiangnan's gaze fell on the two, his eyes blazing with heat!
(๑¥﹃¥) "Hey... do you think they might be carrying some high-grade soul refinement techniques?"
Nian Hongyan: ???
Was this senior planning to...
(°﹏°〃) "Definitely! They're Eternal-level beings at the pinnacle of cultivation resources. Their collections..."
Before Nian Hongyan could finish, Jiangnan rushed straight toward the silk handkerchief above!
He was fishing here, using the bait to attract people! And she had covered it up—how was he supposed to fish now?
So he reached out to tear the handkerchief apart!
Just then, a furious roar echoed through the starry sky!
"Broken Sword Style!"
A heaven-shaking sword cry resounded across the stars!
