Chapter 206 - 201: Coming to the Door

Liu Yinzhu left with Guan Pou, and Ding Huan immediately took out Ji Xinting's storage ring. The prohibition on the storage ring was rather crude, Ji Xinting probably just placed a few prohibition patterns hastily after getting injured. Even so, it took Ding Huan a long time to unlock the prohibition on the storage ring. Then he saw nearly one hundred thousand Crystal Stones, each of which was much more enriched with Spiritual Energy than the Blossom God Crystal Stones, they were incomparable. Well, these must be high-grade Spirit Stones, right? Having spent such a long time in the Triple Heaven Star Land, Ding Huan had also learned about some of the essentials used in cultivation here. It was very likely that his Blossom God Crystal Stones were just low-grade Spirit Stones, and the Crystal Stones circulating in West Wind City were merely scraps of low-grade Spirit Stones. From the storage ring he took from Ji Xinting, those were surely genuine high-grade Spirit Stones, there was no mistake. Besides the Spirit Stones, there was also a Jade Scroll. Ding Huan's Divine Will penetrated it, and he immediately saw the contents clearly. Great Wilderness Divine Jade Technique. Ding Huan scanned it briefly, the cultivation technique could directly cultivate to the peak of the Refining God Returning Void Realm, that is, the Void God Realm. "Yan Mei!" Ding Huan thought of Yan Mei immediately. He made a copy of the Great Wilderness Divine Jade Technique, intending to give it to Yan Mei for cultivation. Although Luo Shijin was not bad, Ding Huan felt it was not very suitable for Yan Mei, and Luo Shijin only went up to the Qi Cultivation Realm, with nothing beyond Foundation Establishment. Yan Mei, hearing Ding Huan calling him from outside, hurriedly came over, "Brother Huan, what do you need?" "This cultivation technique comes from an extraordinary origin, cultivate it secretly, and remember not to reveal it, otherwise you'll die and I can't help you." Ding Huan handed the Great Wilderness Divine Jade Technique to Yan Mei. Yan Mei took it with a puzzled look and then exclaimed in shock, "Brother Huan, is this an item that can cultivate to Refining God Returning Void's peak?" In the Taoist Realm, not to mention cultivating to the Void God Realm, even cultivating to the Primordial Soul Realm was considered an ultimate treasure techniques. "Yes, this is a technique from the Desolate God Sect of the Ascension Realm, think about it, once it leaks, whether you can still be alive. If you don't have the guts to cultivate it, give it back to me." Ding Huan said with a smiling tone. If Yan Mei didn't have the courage to cultivate it, then so be it. Unexpectedly to Ding Huan, Yan Mei laughed loudly: "There is nothing in the world Yan Mei dares not to do, thanks, Brother Huan, I will change my cultivation technique." Watching Yan Mei excitedly leave, Ding Huan thought to himself that Yan Mei even dared to kill in Qu Yueshan, what cultivation technique could there be that he wouldn't dare to cultivate? Yan Mei went to seclude himself to change his cultivation technique, while Ding Huan also put all the belongings into Star House and then took out Can Ping's storage bag. Inside Can Ping's storage bag, there were only about ten thousand low-grade Spirit Stones, a Beast Taming Experience Jade Scroll, and a Beast Taming Method Jade Scroll. What surprised Ding Huan was that he found a basic Artifact Refining manual in Can Ping's storage bag. Such items were not easy to buy, as he had originally planned to ask Liu Yinzhu for a basic Artifact Refining manual, he never expected to find one in Can Ping's bag. No rush for the Array Flag, Ding Huan felt it was a must now to focus on enhancing his power. Purple Mist Valley was a good place, and the Dawn Peak where he stayed was even better. However, Ding Huan guessed that Purple Mist Valley was probably not so peaceful. Even without going into specifics, he could see some clues. A mere disciple dared to mock an elder, and outside Gu Mo, the Sect Master's sickroom, there was no guardian strong enough. All these were abnormal, suggesting internal problems within the Sect. Once he began cultivating the Great Universe Technique, the Spiritual Energy of the entire Dawn Peak was swept over in an instant. More Spiritual Energy, as if being pulled out from the ground by Ding Huan, flowed continuously. In just a short time, these Spiritual Energies formed small vortices outside the house where Ding Huan was cultivating. Yan Mei, who was also preparing to cultivate, watched in amazement, "What kind of cultivation method is this?" Soon he became excited, whatever the cultivation method, with such rich Spiritual Energy, he should hurry and cultivate. Cultivating under such sweeping Spiritual Energies, that was progress by leaps and bounds. As Yan Mei had anticipated, when he began to cultivate the Great Wilderness Divine Jade Technique, the feeling was incredibly thrilling. When cultivating Luo Shijin, he had not achieved Foundation Establishment, adding that Luo Shijin wasn't a nauseating technique like the Great Phoenix Red Cloud Technique. In just two days, Yan Mei transformed his True Yuan into Great Wilderness Divine Jade True Yuan. Then his cultivation level also began to rise rapidly. Ding Huan's first group of Star Nebula was condensed within two days as well, the second group of Star Nebula was also beginning to take shape. This speed of cultivation made Ding Huan not miss out on a single moment. On the ninth day, under the support of endless Spiritual Energy, the second group of Star Nebula in Ding Huan's Dantian was fully condensed. Ding Huan, without any rest, began to condense the third Star Nebula. ... Elder Gong woke up from his secluded cultivation and checked his Communication Bead, feeling a bit puzzled. Why had Gao Ou, whom he had arranged to guard Dawn Peak, not sent him any messages recently? He became somewhat displeased, after giving such a large opportunity to that lad, how dare he forget the important matters? He immediately sent a message to Gao Ou and asked him to come to Purple Sword Peak. What irritated him even more was that, after he sent out his messages, they seemed to sink into the sea without any response. Elder Gong frowned slightly. If it weren't for the fact that he knew Gao Ou would definitely not be killed, he would have thought that Gao Ou was dead. After sending out two more messages without any response, Elder Gong could no longer sit still. He directly summoned his flying sword and arrived at Dawn Peak. Upon arriving at Dawn Peak, Elder Gong felt something was off. Inside Dawn Peak, the spiritual energy was tumultuous, clearly indicating someone was cultivating there. Elder Gong's anger surged. Everyone had agreed, after the Sect Master's death, Dawn Peak would belong to Elder Gong. Taking advantage of his retreat to seize Dawn Peak? To obtain Dawn Peak, Elder Gong had paid a hefty price. Now, the disciples he had arranged to guard Dawn Peak had disappeared, and someone was cultivating there—it was simply outrageous. "Boom!" Without hesitation, Elder Gong launched a long sword towards Dawn Peak. The protective array of Dawn Peak shook violently but soon stabilized again. Just as Elder Gong was about to attack Dawn Peak again, the cold voice of Liu Yinzhu sounded: "Elder Gong, are you trying to rebel?" "Liu Yinzhu, what do you mean? Are you the one occupying Dawn Peak?" Elder Gong, seeing Liu Yinzhu approach, felt his anger surge again. In Purple Mist Valley, Liu Yinzhu's status was probably the lowest. Had it not been for the Sect Master's constant support, what would Liu Yinzhu amount to? Such an elder with no power dared to question whether he was trying to rebel. "What do I mean? Dawn Peak is under the Sect Master's control. Now that the Sect Master is gone, do you still need to ask for Elder Gong's approval?" Liu Yinzhu's tone became more forceful; she felt she should adopt Ding Huan's methods. "Ha ha..." Elder Gong laughed loudly, his face devoid of any smiles. "I, Elder Gong, wasn't aware that after a few days in retreat, even you, Liu Yinzhu, would start exercising the Sect Master's authority. Since that's the case, let me see what you're made of." As Elder Gong spoke, he prepared to take action. He had no hesitation whatsoever. "Elder Gong, you really are unrestrained. Attacking Elder Liu outright without knowing any facts within the sect. Do you think you are now the first person in Purple Mist Valley?" Before Elder Gong could take action, an angrily rebuked voice followed. Two men then approached. Seeing the two who approached, Elder Gong seemed to calm down: "Elder Po Xun, Elder Jia Sha, this matter began with Elder Liu going too far." Elder Jia Sha was just a Guardian Sect Elder, his cultivation just at the initial stage of True Pill. Even if Elder Jia Sha and Liu Yinzhu teamed up, he, Elder Gong, would not fear them. But Elder Po Xun was not someone to be trifled with lightly. He was a Guardian Sect Elder, with a cultivation at the Perfect stage of True Pill, not at all inferior to his own. Most importantly, Elder Po Xun had no personal stakes and mostly stood for the sect's interest. Offending Elder Po Xun, sending him to support protecting the sect, would be a bad move. "But just now I saw you making a move against Elder Liu. An elder within the sect, knowingly breaking the law, what crime should you be charged with?" Jia Sha was not at all polite. Jia Sha knew that the Sect Master's poison had been neutralized, though his current power was still lacking, as recovery would take some time. He was not Ding Huan, nor was he aware of the specifics of Gu Mo. Knowing that the Sect Master's strength would eventually recover gave him the confidence to reprimand Elder Gong. The Sect Master was at the Primordial Soul Realm. Facing a Primordial Soul expert, a Perfect True Pill was nothing. Elder Gong was at a loss for words, soon thinking of something, and spoke with feigned grief: "My disciple, Gao Ou, was killed by Liu Yinzhu. We are all people from the same sect. Why would Elder Liu kill my disciple, Gao Ou, for no reason, and also bypass the Law Enforcement Hall within the sect?" Gao Ou wasn't even fit to be Elder Gong's disciple; Elder Gong only had him safeguard Dawn Peak. Elder Gong thought that once he slandered, Liu Yinzhu would immediately object. After all, who would kill a sect disciple without cause within the sect? To his shock, Liu Yinzhu fell silent. Could it be that Liu Yinzhu truly had the audacity of a bear and the fierceness of a leopard? Daring to kill a disciple within the sect? Elder Po Xun also looked towards Liu Yinzhu: "Elder Liu, Elder Gong claimed you killed his disciple Gao Ou. Is this true?" Liu Yinzhu replied, "I indeed killed Gao Ou because he showed no respect to his elders and acted insubordinately." "Do you have evidence?" Elder Po Xun's words clearly intended to lend Liu Yinzhu some support. Liu Yinzhu was silent; she had no evidence. "Humph, am I wrongfully accusing you? You kill my disciple, am I not entitled to kill you?" Jia Sha knew that the matter had escalated and the Sect Master had to come forward. He simply said, "Elder Liu is kind and would never kill a disciple without cause." "Even with a reason, the Law Enforcement Hall should handle it. What right does Elder Liu have to kill a disciple?" Elder Gong grew louder, feeling justified. "What do you propose, then?" asked Elder Po Xun, knowing this situation was beyond their capacity to handle. "Let's convene a Sect Elder conference. Let everyone discuss the matter, to determine right from wrong," declared Elder Gong. He decided to use this elder conference to secure Dawn Peak for himself. (Today's update ends here.
