Immortal and Martial Dual Cultivation

Chapter 1065: Black Profound Wolf



Inferior Grade Profound Beast, Snake Lion!

Xiao Chen looked at the information on the map and made out which Profound Beast this was. However, he felt somewhat suspicious. The area he was in was a safe region. Profound Beasts like the Snake Lion that moved in prides should not appear in this place alone.

Not giving him much time to think, a ferocious glint appeared in the Snake Lion’s eyes. It spread its wings out and charged at him, flying like a beam of light.

“Pu ci!”

However fast the Snake Lion arrived was how fast it died. Xiao Chen casually kicked, and the Inferior Grade Profound Beast turned into a spatter of blood and globs of mangled flesh.

If the other cultivators saw this scene, they would be so shocked that their eyeballs would pop out. Normally, an Inferior Grade Profound Beast required two grandmaster-level Martial Sages to handle.

However, Xiao Chen exploded it with a casual kick—a very horrifying scene.

A suction came from Xiao Chen’s palm. A dark-colored pearl flew out of the scarlet splatter to his hand.

“This is a Profound Core?” Xiao Chen examined it and found that the energy it contained was indeed very pure. If a grandmaster-level Martial Sage swallowed it directly and refined it, it would be extremely useful.

However, as a quasi-Emperor, Xiao Chen did not care for this Inferior Grade Profound Core. Even the Superior Grade Profound Core that an ordinary quasi-Emperor could refine would not be of much use to him.

This kind of Profound Core was reasonably pure, but it still had quite a bit of impurities. It would be rather problematic to eliminate these impurities from his body.

Xiao Chen wondered if Little Yellow Feather would like this Profound Core. Given the Golden Crow’s ability, it could ignore the impurities entirely.

If Little Yellow Feather liked it, Xiao Chen could go hunting for snacks for it. That would ease some of the pressure on him.

Just a casual meal cost a hundred thousand Black Astral Coins. No one would be able to bear it.

The moment Little Yellow Feather sensed that there was food to eat, it happily came out of the Immortal Spirit Ring, flapping its wings. It gave Xiao Chen a pitiful look, behaving itself.

Little Yellow Feather swallowed the Profound Core in one bite. Its human-looking eyes looked extremely happy at first. Then, its expression became like it was eating feces, something extremely disgusting.

“Pu ci!”

Little Yellow Feather spat out a clump of black substance. Xiao Chen took a look and immediately revealed a smile. The thing it spat out was all the impurities. The essence was perfectly absorbed.

“Not bad, not bad. I’ll go and look for snacks for you.”

“Boom!” The moment the little fellow opened its beak, it spat flames at Xiao Chen, appearing extremely dissatisfied.

Xiao Chen smiled happily and dodged easily. Let’s see if you dare to put on airs before me again. In the future, I will let you eat feces every day.

Wait, that’s not right. I mean Profound Cores.

Little Yellow Feather kept spitting flames at Xiao Chen, but he easily dodged them. The chick was frustrated, but there was nothing else it could do but fly into the Immortal Spirit Ring.

Xiao Chen, Little Yellow Feather said that you bullied it. What’s wrong? Ao Jiao asked from inside the Immortal Spirit Ring as she consoled the small Golden Crow.

“That’s not true. Don’t listen to that little fellow’s nonsense. I was working hard to find snacks for it.”

It said that you fed it feces.

Xiao Chen smiled embarrassedly. “How can that be? Do you think that the Azure Dragon King would be such a petty person?”

Then Little Yellow Feather was lying?

“Definitely. You should teach it a lesson. I will continue to search for feces… Wait, that’s not right. I mean Profound Cores. These Profound Cores contain Immortal Qi.”

Xiao Chen’s tongue slipped, so he quickly dropped the conversation and just headed in the direction that the Snake Lion came from.

The overgrown ancient city was chock full of crumbling and dilapidated buildings. Wind and sand blew nonstop as the aura of despair hovered everywhere.

The white figure leaped around the rubble, slowly going farther away. The Azure Dragon King bickered with Ao Jiao cheerfully with a smile on his face, not showing any expression of despair at all.

Xiao Chen landed firmly and silently on a broken wall. When he saw the scene before him, he revealed an expression of understanding.

Now, he knew why the Snake Lion had fled its territory.

A wolf-shaped Profound Beast emitting a black light from its entire body was currently gnawing on the corpses of a few Snake Lions on the flat land.

The Black Profound Wolf was a king among Inferior Grade Profound Beasts. Many of the Medial Grade Profound Beasts were also not a match for it.

Before it, the ferocious Snake Lion was like a lamb, unable to resist at all.

Since the Black Profound Wolf was a king among the Inferior Grade Profound Beasts, the purity of its Immortal Beast bloodline would be much higher. The value of its Profound Core would be ten times more than usual.

“I am quite lucky. Not long after arriving, I ran into a king among Inferior Grade Profound Beasts.”

Xiao Chen smiled as he sat down on the broken wall. Then, he took out the bright moon folding fan and casually watched the Black Profound Wolf eat.

After waiting for a while, he also realized that the Astral Pearls, which had turned into small birds and were flying around, had not found anything. So, he withdrew his Spiritual Sense.

The happily eating Black Profound Wolf did not detect the pair of eyes watching it eat not far away.

“Have you finished eating? You’ve got to eat your fill before dying, so you should be satisfied.”

Xiao Chen smiled faintly and stood up, pronouncing the death sentence of the Black Profound Wolf.

Who knew, at this moment, something strange happened. A flying sword descended from the air, quickly charging towards the Black Profound Wolf like a falling star, kicking up a strong wind.

Sand, dust, and pebbles flew everywhere as a strong aura spread out, preventing others from opening their eyes.

Xiao Chen squinted. This was a flying sword, a bona fide flying sword, a Magic Treasure of an Immortal Cultivator.

Flying swords were the most common Magic Treasures of Immortal Cultivators. These Magic Treasures varied in strength, and the one that just descended clearly was not weak. Otherwise, it would not have such a strong aura, and its owner would not dare to come and adventure in Despair City, either.

Immortal Cultivators searching for Magic Skills in Despair City was frequently heard of. Xiao Chen unexpectedly ran into one.

Could it be that this Black Profound Wolf was extraordinary because its bones contained the great Dao or a Magic Skill?

Thinking of this, Xiao Chen moved back and hid.

He had previously kept his aura withdrawn; otherwise, the Black Profound Wolf would have discovered him, given his proximity. With him hiding deliberately, the arriving Immortal Cultivator would have difficulty detecting him.

The Black Profound Wolf itself was a king among Inferior Grade Profound Beasts, about as strong as a great grandmaster-level Martial Sage. The person coming should not be able to kill it so easily. Xiao Chen would observe the situation first before taking action.

“Dang!”

The moment the Black Profound Wolf detected some strange movements, a savage light flared in its eyes. It roared ferociously and stood up on its hind legs like a human. Then, it stretched a foreleg out and swatted the flying sword away with a metallic sound.

By now, the hidden Xiao Chen could clearly see the person who arrived. It was a youthful Immortal Cultivator about the age of thirty, wearing blue Buddhist robes.

When Xiao Chen saw this person’s face, he found it familiar. After thinking for a while, he was surprised. It was actually him.

After the Black Profound Wolf smashed back the flying sword, the blue-robed cultivator clearly suffered a slight injury.

However, the thing that Immortal Cultivators were good at was controlling Magic Treasures. With Magic Skills hard to come by, the combat strength of Immortal Cultivators was largely dependent on Magic Treasures. This person should not be limited to just this flying sword.

Indeed, that was so. When the blue-robed cultivator saw the flying sword smacked away, he formed hand seals and tossed a burning metal net at the Black Profound Wolf.

The burning metal net enlarged and covered a large area.

Seeing that it would not be able to leave easily, the Black Profound Wolf brandished its claws flickering with a sharp cold light. Just as the burning metal net was about to land, the Black Profound Wolf moved both paws quickly, trying to tear the net apart.

Who knew, the instant the burning metal net landed, it quickly shrank, firmly trapping the Black Profound Wolf.

The net continued burning, causing the Black Profound Wolf to howl miserably and struggle for its life. The burning metal net looked to be in danger of tearing at any moment.

The blue-robed cultivator did not dare to be careless. He moved his fingers continuously, and a few more flying swords came zooming out. With the Black Profound Wolf unable to dodge, the flying swords pierced it, pinning it to the ground.

Despite controlling several Magic Treasures at the same time, the blue-robed cultivator seemed like he still had energy to spare; he did not appear nervous at all.

The blue-robed cultivator was in no hurry. Even after all the Black Profound Wolf’s blood had drained out and he removed the burning metal net, he still left seven flying swords in the air, clearly remaining very cautious.

After the blue-robed cultivator landed on the ground, he kicked the Black Profound Wolf and cursed at it. “This beast is really strong. It even managed to smash back my life flying sword. Fortunately, I recently refined this Gold Flame Net. Otherwise, I really would not have been able to subdue this beast.”

After saying that, the blue-robed cultivator formed hand seals. Then, a light flickered as he tapped on the Black Profound Wolf’s back.

Instantly, a strange scene appeared on the Black Profound Wolf’s back. Its fur and flesh turned transparent. Flowing white lines could be seen on its bones.

At first, the blue-robed cultivator rejoiced. However, after he saw that there were just the white lines, he immediately felt disappointed. “Damn. It is an ordinary Immortal Art. Magic Skills are still too hard to find.

“No Minor Magic Skills have turned up, much less Major Magic Skills.”

“I do have two Minor Magic Skills on hand that can be evolved into Major Magic Skills. I wonder if fellow Daoist is interested?”

At some point, Xiao Chen silently made his appearance, standing right outside the detection range of the seven flying swords.

The voice startled the blue-robed cultivator. He quickly retreated. When his gaze landed on Xiao Chen’s face, his pupils constricted.

The blue-robed cultivator pointed, and the seven swords shot towards Xiao Chen like dragons soaring towards the sun. Then, he turned around to flee.

The seven flying swords moved in one line with extraordinary might. Xiao Chen did not dare to be careless. So, he summoned out the Beautiful Mountain and River Painting from his right hand.

First, Xiao Chen stopped the blue-robed cultivator from fleeing. Then, he opened his folding fan and blocked the seven flying swords with his full power.

“Thousand Frost Battle Snow!” Proud and upright to the bone.

Snow flew everywhere and the wind was cold. The five hundred kilometers of frost was even colder than the wind and snow. As the folding fan flew, Xiao Chen struck down the seven flying swords.

With his full power, the seven flying swords were like toys in his eyes.

Of course, if it were a great grandmaster-level Martial Sage, even an outstanding talent, they would not be as relaxed as Xiao Chen.

The life flying swords of a Yuanying Cultivator were no joke.

On the other side, the small world of mountains and rivers materialized by the Beautiful Mountain and River Painting utterly suppressed the blue-robed cultivator, who did not have any of his life Magic Treasures on him.

Despite using all sorts of Magic Treasures, the blue-robed cultivator struggled to resist this Immortal Equipment that was missing one corner.

If the blue-robed cultivator still held a life flying sword, he might have been able to pierce the painting. However, now, he was totally helpless.

Seeing that he was about to be drawn into the painting, the blue-robed cultivator revealed an expression of terror. He was clearer than anyone else about the horrors of entering the world in the painting.

“I surrender. What do you want to know? I’ll tell you everything,” the blue-robed cultivator shouted.

Xiao Chen stretched out his hand, and the Beautiful Mountain and River Painting returned to his palm.

This blue-robed cultivator was none other than that Immortal Cultivator whom Xiao Chen met in Hunluo Province while dealing with the Eternal Heavenly Sword School’s matter. Of course, at that time, this cultivator had not formed his Yuanying yet.
