Chapter 2545: Chapter 935: Drawing Disaster and Calamity, Ba Xiu Qi Tian
The black armor was ominous.
The jade belt gleamed brightly.
The high crown resembled a mountain peak.
The golden feathers were like sharp blades.
As he stepped forward, his Wave Riding Light Steps were elusive and unpredictable, and in his movement, he was like a dragon soaring and a tiger leaping, with a presence that suffocated all around him.
When Luo Chen emerged from the nameless desolate mountain where he had been refining a Magic Item, Cheng Bai felt as though a Demon King had stepped out from a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, carrying an overwhelmingly blood-soaked aura right to his face.
“Gulp…”
A mouthful of saliva was swallowed involuntarily, and Cheng Bai hesitantly knelt down on the ground.
“Junior Cheng Bai, pays respects to the Senior!”
Luo Chen, looking down at the man beneath him, spoke gruffly, “Your name is not important, what I want to know is who is this Master Ming Lei, and from which force does he hail?”
Cheng Bai bowed his head, trembling as he replied, “Master Ming Lei has no sect or affiliation; he is a Rogue Cultivator who has proven his Dao and is the only Nascent Soul True Master among the Thirty-Six Cave Masters of Wind and Thunder Gorge.”
“Rogue Cultivator?”
Luo Chen raised an eyebrow, since when did Rogue Cultivators easily achieve the Nascent Soul Realm?
In the vast North Sea, only the Three Great Independent Cultivators among Nascent Soul Rogue Cultivators are known by name.
Now, upon arriving in the South Border, such a character emerges from the wilderness?
Cheng Bai nodded repeatedly and began recounting Master Ming Lei’s growth.
Wind and Thunder Gorge was originally a treacherous place that no major force considered worthy.
Due to the presence of countless scattered Spirit Veins, it attracted numerous unaffiliated Rogue Cultivators to risk their cultivation here.
Gradually, it led to the term Thirty-Six Cave Masters.
At that time, most of the Cave Masters were at the Foundation Establishment Realm, and it was rare for one or two Golden Core Ascendant Masters to be present.
They gathered together amidst external pressures from major forces, forming alliances to resist foreign enemies.
However, in the past two or three hundred years, things began to change.
Many Cave Masters unexpectedly found success in cultivation, experiencing significant leaps in their realms.
Especially Master Ming Lei, who overcame countless difficulties to become a generation’s Nascent Soul True Master, single-handedly dominating the Thirty-Six Caves.
As he listened, Luo Chen’s eyes slightly narrowed.
“Two or three hundred years…”
Cheng Bai hesitated, then nervously raised his head, relieved, to pose a question lingering in his mind.
“Junior dares to ask, Senior, are you also a Nascent Soul True Master?”
“Oh?” Luo Chen looked at him with a smile, “What if I am, what if I am not?”
Cheng Bai squeezed out a smile, “My Cave Lord loves forming connections widely…”
“Speak the truth!”
Startled, Cheng Bai quickly replied, “Wind and Thunder Gorge has seen an emergence of experts over the years, with many Rogue Cultivators rapidly advancing in realms. The largest Nascent Soul Family nearby, the Feng Family, believes Wind and Thunder Gorge is a hidden priceless land and has intentions to seize it. Despite my Cave Lord’s strength, he has recently formed his Nascent Soul and lacks extensive connections. Facing the Feng Family’s coveting, he has grown increasingly troubled. Especially as the Feng Family has recently been active, widely inviting allies to attempt an invasion and dominate Wind and Thunder Gorge, becoming a significant concern for my Cave Lord. His dedicated practice of the Flash Thunder Technique is largely because the Feng Family’s Supreme’s movement technique is outstanding, with remarkable speed, and he seeks to overcome this shortcoming…”
“Nonsense!” Luo Chen snorted lightly, “You could have just said you want to invite me to help in a fight.”
Cheng Bai nodded repeatedly, “Indeed, if Senior could assist, the countless cultivators of Wind and Thunder Gorge’s Thirty-Six Caves would be immensely grateful. Introducing a strong ally would be a significant merit, potentially earning slight rewards.”
The latter sentence was indeed candid.
Luo Chen spoke directly without hesitation, “Is there a benefit?”
Cheng Bai opened his mouth, seemingly unable to respond to this direct way of asking for benefits.
Seeing this, Luo Chen waved, “Never mind, I’ll ask Master Ming Lei directly for rewards then.”
With that, he turned and headed towards the Cave Mansion.
“Wait outside!”
Cheng Bai breathed a sigh of relief, he felt he had just overcome a major hurdle.
He feared these old monsters would act without reason, killing as they pleased.
Whether introducing a strong figure to their Cave Mansion was blessing or curse, it was a matter for the future, inconsequential to him at present; he aimed solely to pass the current moment.
The only issue was whether this old monster was strong enough?
He hadn’t mentioned whether he was a Nascent Soul True Master.
As he pondered anxiously, a voice boomed like thunder into his ears.
“I may not be in the Nascent Soul Realm, but even ordinary True Masters can’t withstand my fists!”
Cheng Bai’s mouth slightly opened, two words echoed in his mind.
“Physical Cultivator!”
…
In the rough Cave Mansion, Luo Chen surveyed the devastation that appeared as if carved by a knife, chopped by an axe, struck by lightning, and burnt by fire, and couldn’t help but feel a heavy heart.
With a thought, the Primordial Chaos Tripod twirled into existence before him.
Upon inspection, its Spirit Qi was inherent, and its brilliance was restrained.
Though not eye-catching, anyone who saw it could recognize it as a rare treasure.
The Primordial Chaos Tripod was undoubtedly in good shape, far exceeding its state at previous peaks.
Especially after integrating the Rest Soil from the Five-colored Pagoda and most of the Five Elements Materials, its substantial weight was indescribable; even at its height, True Devices like Mount Sky Cliff and Hundred Craft Mountain that specialized in heaviness and suppression couldn’t compare.
The problem occurred during the integration process.
It inexplicably attracted a “Heavenly Tribulation!”
The gathered ominous clouds, accompanied by lightning strikes that Cheng Bai witnessed, resulted from the anomalies during Luo Chen’s Natal Magic Item’s refinement.
Although not a real Heavenly Tribulation, it merely drew some of the floating thunder power from between heaven and earth.
Yet the Primordial Chaos Tripod is just a True Device, far from reaching the status of a Spiritual Treasure!
“How could it draw a subtle Thunder Tribulation?”
Luo Chen naturally did not consider the Rest Soil to be the issue; no matter how remarkable the Rest Soil was, its quantity was very small, moreover, it is only material.
