Daily life of a cultivation judge

Chapter 631 Didn’t see it coming

The two spirit beasts excitedly followed Yang Qing when he asked them to join them on his little excursion.

Ever since they got captured by Feng Xin, their world experienced a seismic shift. They got access to resources they never thought possible, saw powerful spirit beasts that shook them to their core but were still somehow alive which was something they never thought possible either.

They saw terrifying human cultivators that were of the same caliber of terror as Feng Xin, which put them on edge every single day especially Haishi who had an easily intimidated personality. .

But eventually, both of them were able to adapt to the unnerving situations and the drastic shifts in view till they were somehow used to it.

It wasn’t all bad for them as they didn’t have to risk their lives to improve their strength. Though the training they were put through was extremely demanding, they didn’t run the risk of ending up in another spirit beast’s stomach if they failed as was the norm in the Green Fog Region.

Haishi and Bolin both seemed to have adapted to their new lives at the Order, swiftly even. But considering how ruthless and dangerous the Green Fog Region was, the speed with which they called the Order home could be understood, especially when both considered their circumstances.

Other than being the only two to have survived the ambush on Feng Xin, they both didn’t have much to go back to. They were not overlords of territories that they would feel the pinch of not going back. Haishi was a wimp who liked staying in her lair and the only times she got out was to shadow the green-flowered babirusa when it went to search for spiritual herbs.

With green flowered babirusa dead and already in the stomach of Yang Qing and the rest, and even hers because her willpower ended up failing her and she succumbed to that barbecued pork goodness, she didn’t have much else to go back to. She couldn’t find another partner like the green-flowered babirusa that would let her follow them all over the place without attacking her.

As for Bolin, he only had one friend in the area, the green flash viper. Even though he thought his friend had likely survived Feng Xin’s attack, he had no intentions of going back even if he was given the chance to. His time at the Order made him realize how exhausted he had been of his life at the Green Fog Region.

He enjoyed soaking in his pond and eating a few insect spirit beasts whenever the urge struck him but other than that he didn’t have much ambition for anything else. However, because of his known friendship with the green flash viper who was one of the false kings of the eighth zone, he was constantly dragged into fights for dominance which he never wanted to be a part of.

The vie for supremacy between his long-time friend and the other false king, the black cosmos caiman left him constantly on guard and exhausted.

After experiencing a sense of peace and rest he had at the Order, he had no intentions of ever going back.

To the two of them, their current lifestyle was afforded to them by Feng Xin but after being at the Order for some time and learning a bit of how things worked they knew it would not have been possible without Yang Qing’s support, especially for Bolin.

He was destined to be on the slab of some alchemist’s table being researched and cut apart, but he wasn’t because of Yang Qing’s writing on his back. He would occasionally rub it like it was some protective halo that would protect him against anything.

The two were thankful to Yang Qing for their current lifestyle which was why they liked to be around him, it also didn’t hurt that Yang Qing was easygoing and affable to them.

This was why Yang Qing’s betrayal hurt them so much when he dumped the two in dangerous parts of the Deer Mountain Range.

Bolin had his poisonous abilities sealed by Yang Qing and was left with his regenerative abilities from his wood element, which Yang Qing encouraged him to use unceasingly if he wanted to survive, while Haishi was thrown into a territory that had a ghost-eyed owl, a phantom blade mantis and a few other spirit beasts skilled in perception.

Worse was, they were all stronger than Haishi. She was encouraged to hide to her heart’s content in the area.

The two didn’t see it coming. They thought they would be sharing a meal, trading stories, and laughing as they did the previous day not running and hiding for their lives in an unfamiliar territory.

Despite the shock, they quickly adjusted themselves as they carefully gauged their surroundings. Yang Qing nodded in appreciation when he saw how swiftly they moved and reacted. They clearly earned their reputation as residents of one of the most dangerous forests on the continent. Their mentality, adaptability, and swiftness were admirable as spirit beasts that lived in a region where your life hung on a balance every second of every day.

Yang Qing left his spiritual imprint marking on both of them which was a safety measure in case something unexpected happened. His imprints would protect them whilst also alerting him.

After confirming his imprints were functional Yang Qing left for the locations mentioned by Meifeng.

The first stop was an area a few kilometers north of where he had mercilessly left Bolin and Haishi. Yang Qing spread his palace sense around the area before finding what he sought. He detected an area with rich spiritual energy circulating.

When he arrived at the area, he found a pond made of lightning gypsum that was filled with what looked to be boiling blood as indeed it was.

Yang Qing detected the blood contained the auras of multitudinous spirit beasts. They seemed to have come from spirit beasts of varying strengths but they were all in the core formation realm.

“This looks like the body refining concoction that Grandpa and the rest used to dunk me in when I was small except it wasn’t as potent or smelled this nice..” Yang Qing said as he took a big gluttonous whiff as he walked towards the pond.
