Chapter 383: Chapter 177: Daoist Talisman Promotion, 6 Yao Dou Shu, Dragon Elephant Inheritance: The 3 Great Benefits! Wang Xuanyang’s Secret

"The Ten Great True Inheritance of the Ten Thousand Laws Sect, the Dou Shu Mansion..."

"Hmph."

"If this were sixty years ago, I would have shown no mercy to the likes of you. But times have changed, and the current climate is different. As for the policies of the Great Xuan, it’s not my place to comment."

Xu Longxiang slowly lowered his hand, watching the heavily injured Weii Changkong flee with an indifferent expression.

"But, fellow Daoist, according to you Qi Cultivators and your ways of the Divine Soul, by interfering in another’s destiny today, you have tied yourself to ’Cause and Effect’."

"A Practitioner’s ’Cause and Effect’ is the most difficult debt to repay."

"How will you answer for the cause you’ve created today?"

Xu Longxiang’s meaning was simple.

You want to save him? Fine.

But...

You must leave something of value behind!

Having stopped Xu Longxiang and seeing that he didn’t attack, Chi Jing Daoist, who didn’t know the whole story, let out a huge sigh of relief.

Just as he was preparing to board his Flying Ship to chase after Weii Changkong, he heard these words and was left awkwardly speechless.

’Dammit, I’ve run into someone who knows the ropes. Looks like I won’t get away today without giving something up...’

After all, Chi Jing Daoist had not yet become a True Master, and he had no desire to truly offend an unknown ’Martial Saint’. So, with a dart of his eyes, he grit his teeth and immediately spoke:

"Martial Saint, my Dou Shu lineage is one of the True Mansions of the Ten Thousand Laws Sect. We are in charge of one of the ’Six Paths Divine Techniques’ that anchor our Daoist Lineage—the Six Divination!"

"I am one of the Ten Great True Inheritance, qualified to inherit a ’Divine Technique,’ and the technique I specialize in is this very one."

"The Six Divination allows one to perceive a person’s destiny and glimpse a corner of their fate. With it, one can attract good fortune, avoid disaster, and navigate calamities. The only drawback is that it requires the user to expend immense energy."

"Today, I, Chi Jing, swear upon my Divine Soul that I now owe you, fellow Daoist, a single performance of the ’Six Divination’!"

"I will be staying briefly at the Flying Immortal Temple in Jiangyin Prefecture. If you are interested, fellow Daoist, you can send anyone to me, and this humble Daoist will read their fate."

"The name of this humble Daoist, Chi Jing, has been renowned far and wide in the outside world for the last sixty years. You, fellow Daoist, must be the type of Ascetic Cultivator who has been in seclusion for many years and thus haven’t heard of my name."

"Go ask around and you’ll find out. I, Chi Jing Daoist, am unparalleled when it comes to divination!"

"This is a deal you can’t lose!"

Chi Jing Daoist spoke these words with heartfelt sincerity. He had indeed inherited the ’Six Divination’, and he hadn’t exaggerated its effects or the price required.

However...

His reputation was not a good one.

Chi Jing, the True Inheritance of the Dou Shu Mansion, had a saying attached to his name: "Six Divination, Yama’s Call!"

Simply put...

If he read your fate, no matter what kind of heaven-sent prodigy you were, you were basically starting a death countdown.

Chi Jing Daoist, however, scoffed at this notion.

He spent a great deal of energy, painstakingly reading their fates, and it was all done out of the goodness of his heart!

It’s just that for some reason, those people insisted on courting death. They couldn’t be stopped. Alas, how could he be blamed for that?

Xu Longxiang was unaware of these particular details, but the reputation of the Ten Thousand Laws Sect’s Dou Shu Mansion and the Six Divination...

He had heard of them long ago and knew they were real.

Furthermore, the man had sworn an oath on his ’Divine Soul.’ That, combined with the clear signs of his Cultivation, meant he was almost certainly telling the truth.

If it was true, then this was indeed a once-in-a-millennium opportunity.

Thus, after a moment of contemplation, Xu Longxiang slowly spoke:

"If that’s the case, it’s not unacceptable. An ant that could be crushed with a flick of a finger, in exchange for one use of the ’Six Divination’..."

"Worth it."

Looking at the vast crowd of bowing Purple Mist Disciples, Xu Longxiang just waved his large sleeve.

"However, sparing half his life is too lenient."

"Therefore..."

"From now on, this so-called ’Purple Mist School’ no longer needs to exist. Let it be a warning, so that the younger generations sixty years from now can have a good look at the might of me, the ’Dragon Elephant Martial Saint’!"

Xu Longxiang looked toward Chi Jing Daoist on the Flying Ship, his eyes cold and menacing.

"If he refuses to accept this judgment..."

"Xu Longxiang of the Dragon Elephant True Sect!"

"Will be waiting for him at the sect gates!"

Chi Jing Daoist waved his hands repeatedly.

"Fellow Daoist, you speak too gravely. This humble Daoist only broke the rules and interfered this one time for certain reasons. If you wish for a fate reading for yourself, or for your Disciples, just come find me."

With that, he unhesitatingly turned the Flying Ship around and sped off in the direction Weii Changkong had fled.

Meanwhile, on Golden Turtle Island, the Purple Mist Disciples looked ashen-faced and grief-stricken, their hearts filled with utter despair.

They had arrived with such imposing momentum...

How had things gone so wrong, with one unbelievable setback after another!?

Qiao Qi, who had betrayed the Celestial Blade School, was especially paralyzed with fear. He never would have dreamed that things would escalate to this point.

At this, seeing Chi Jing Daoist depart, a thoughtful Ji Xiu was the first to snap back to his senses. Without hesitation, he subdued the Tea House heir and hauled him directly in front of Chen Hex.

"Martial Uncle, Ancestral Master, now that the Purple Mist School has been annihilated and the matter is settled, you may deal with this traitor as you see fit."

After speaking, he turned to Xu Longxiang, who was slowly descending, and gave a deep, sincere bow.

"This student thanks you, Master, for intervening!"

To be honest.

Favored by a Martial Saint! Now a Dragon Elephant Daoist!

’Even now, these titles left Ji Xiu reeling. He never imagined that he would stumble his way into the patronage of such a world-shaking figure.’

Moreover...

’Back at the Beicang Marquis’s Mansion, I asked Xiao Mingli about ’Daoist Talismans’ that could allow a Primordial Daoist Talisman to be promoted. They’re exceedingly rare... ’

’...but there’s one, and it just so happens to be in the Dragon Elephant True Sect!’

’Before, it felt impossibly out of reach, but now!’

’Could I... could I ask this Dragon Elephant Master about it!?’

Ji Xiu’s heart began to pound.

After hearing his words, Xu Longxiang just chuckled lightly.

"I told you I would give you a proper title. You’re the one who didn’t ask for the details."

"As for the inheritance..."

His expression turned a little more serious.

"When you return to Jiangyin Prefecture, remember to pay a visit to the Mansion Courtyard."

"And that Ten Thousand Laws True Inheritance from the ’Flying Immortal Temple’—you might not know what that represents, but the chance for a fate-reading with the ’Six Divination’ is a once-in-a-millennium opportunity, something even a Dragon and Tiger would find hard to obtain!"

"After this, remember to go to the ’Flying Immortal Temple’ on my authority and ask for a reading. It will only benefit you."

’Dragon Elephant Inheritance,’ ’Six Divination,’ ’Daoist Talisman Promotion’!

As Ji Xiu listened to Xu Longxiang, his breath grew heavy with every thought of these incredible opportunities.

Just as he thought Xu Longxiang was finished with his instructions and was about to step into the air to depart...

Suddenly!

The tall, white-haired, white-bearded old man suddenly spun around. A serious glint flashed in his eyes as he fixed his gaze on Ji Xiu’s ancestral master, the dazed-looking Wang Xuanyang, sizing him up...

And then—

BAM!

All at once, with a completely un-telegraphed strike, he slapped toward his forehead!

By the time Ji Xiu and Chen Hex could react...

Xu Longxiang’s large palm, billowing out from his sleeve, had already descended upon the crown of Wang Xuanyang’s head!

"Master!?" Ji Xiu cried out, his heart leaping in terror!

"Master!" Chen Hex’s eyes narrowed in alarm!

Before the two of them could make a move...

They saw the confusion in Wang Xuanyang’s eyes suddenly fade like starlight. Then, in an instant, it was as if the thick killing intent from the palm strike had provoked an instinctual response!

In the blink of an eye—

An intensely powerful Sword Intent enveloped the entirety of Golden Turtle Island!

It completely shrouded both Wang Xuanyang and Xu Longxiang!

And the scene within the ’domain’...

was impossible for outsiders to look upon!
