Chapter 494: Chapter 494: The Grey Vine Goddess’s Plan, Taking Control of Heiluo Sha
Although it was only an avatar that had arrived, it still possessed the power of the Spirit Sea Realm’s first level.
In Mystique Kingdom, this cultivation level wasn’t much to speak of.
However, in some cities or weaker capitals without a Spirit Sea Realm cultivator in residence, a cultivator of the Spirit Sea Realm was terrifyingly powerful, capable of sweeping away thousands.
Whoosh!
The avatar of the Grey Vine Goddess continued to advance.
Unnoticed by gods or ghosts, she left the Southern River Basin and arrived at the Barren Desert.
Facing the vast expanse of yellow sand before her, she let out a sinister laugh.
“Very well, this is quite nice.”
“I really like seeing the Human Race’s territories turn into a sea of sand, this feeling, it’s exhilarating!”
The avatar of the Grey Vine Goddess identified her direction.
Eventually, she flew towards the southeast.
Half a day later.
She reached the former headquarters of the Blood Demon Hall.
Looking at the desolation here, she sneered, “The Blood Demon Hall of the past… It looks like Ye Feng’s strength has indeed entered the High Order Divine Origin Realm, but when my true body descends, you will still die!”
Having said that, she moved on.
The Grey Vine Goddess had made up her mind.
She had to be more than a hundred thousand li away from Mystique Kingdom.
This distance far exceeded the range of activity for local cultivators of Mystique Kingdom, such as Ye Feng and Shu Qianjun.
There, she could act more freely.
“Eh, this place isn’t bad, within tens of thousands of li all around, there are only some ordinary cities without any Spirit Sea Realm cultivators in residence.”
“Nanyun Thirteen States… here I come!”
No sooner had she spoken than the Grey Vine Goddess suddenly accelerated.
She had already chosen her destination.
Nanyun Thirteen States.
This was a plain, eighty thousand li from the Southern River Basin, and within tens of thousands of li, there wasn’t even a Two-Star Rank force.
The resources there weren’t abundant, and there weren’t many cultivators, but there was a Mortal Realm Kingdom.
The number of living beings there exceeded one hundred million!
If she could slaughter them all, it would be enough to summon her true body, and even the avatar of the Ancestor of Tree Demons could be summoned!
…
Southern River Basin.
Tianji Pavilion.
Xiao Fangu and Zhu Yongfu looked at the Paper Fan Young Master, their faces filled with admiration.
“Pavilion Master, you really are amazing.”
“Indeed!”
“Even the Grey Vine Goddess was persuaded by you; it seems we won’t even need to take action ourselves to extinguish Misty Sect.”
The two kept flattering him.
“But, what if the Grey Vine Goddess herself comes in person to strike us?”
Moments later, Xiao Fangu thought of this and was slightly worried.
“No matter!”
The Paper Fan Young Master had the air of someone in control of the entire situation, “The Tree Demon Clan is only an ordinary clan in the starry sky, how can they be mentioned in the same breath as our Prophet Clan?”
He was full of confidence.
“Even if her true body comes personally, she wouldn’t dare to make a move against us… Alright, continue to lie low, and wait for the good news.”
“Yes!”
…
Misty Sect.
Ye Feng was unaware of the formation of Tianji Pavilion and the arrival of the Grey Vine Goddess’s avatar.
At this moment, he had already brought back hundreds of disciples to Misty Sect.
“This is Misty Sect.”
Ye Feng pointed at the spirited and picturesque Misty Peak below, “From now on, you will cultivate here diligently, strive to break through your own limits, and become great cultivators.”
“Yes!”
All the new second-generation disciples and the Outer Sect Affairs Managers nodded.
In the crowd.
Wang Xuanping carefully observed his surroundings.
Soon, his gaze settled on Misty Peak.
“Worthy of Misty Sect, this force really has a strong foundation, to actually possess a large Spirit Vein.”
“It looks like our Soul-Devouring Clan needs to further upgrade our rating of Misty Sect.”
Wang Xuanping thought to himself.
Slap!
Suddenly, a hand slapped Wang Xuanping’s shoulder, startling him, and he quickly looked to see who it was.
“I heard you’re called Wang Xuanping, and you’re among the second-generation disciples with decent talent and cultivation level. I am Shi Lei, the senior disciple among the first-generation disciples. From today on, you’re coming with me to move bricks.”
Shi Lei stood in front of Wang Xuanping, grinning from ear to ear.
“Huh?”
“Move bricks?”
“Isn’t it supposed to be cultivating?”
Wang Xuanping was utterly baffled.
Who ever heard of being put to work moving bricks the moment you walk in the door?
That’s just too… outrageous!
Also, what about my undercover mission if I’m off moving bricks?
Wang Xuanping began to worry.
“Moving bricks is a form of cultivation,” Shi Lei said, patting Wang Xuanping on the shoulder. “You look all clean and fresh; you definitely haven’t done any physical labor before. So, working with me to move bricks will temper your will and enhance your potential.”
Enhancing potential by moving bricks?
Enhance my foot!
Wang Xuanping felt like crying.
But the person before him was the Misty Sect’s senior brother, and how could he not listen to him?
Any resistance, and my undercover mission would be over.
“Alright, I’ll listen to the senior brother,” Wang Xuanping sighed.
“A man sighing?” Shi Lei gave a hearty slap on Wang Xuanping’s chest. “Oh, you’ve got some nice muscles there, perfect for a brick-moving newbie.”
Blushing, Wang Xuanping’s face turned red from the slap on the chest.
Although her new body was male, she had been a woman before the soul transfer!
Being slapped on the chest, even if it wasn’t her original body, was something Wang Xuanping found repulsive.
“Let’s go move some bricks!”
Shi Lei grabbed Wang Xuanping’s hand, and together they soared into the air, heading toward the Shuiyang City Ruins thousands of miles away.
Not long ago, Ye Feng visited the Shuiyang City Ruins.
Using the Power of World Remodeling stored in the Wind Spirit Pearl, Ye Feng created a Miniature Spirit Vein at the Shuiyang City Ruins, which became the source of Spiritual Energy for that herb field.
Misty Peak.
Ye Feng watched Wang Xuanping leave with a smile.
Shi Lei taking him away was naturally Ye Feng’s idea.
But even Shi Lei did not know that Wang Xuanping was an undercover agent from the Soul-Devouring Clan; he just thought Ye Feng took a special interest in this new second-generation disciple.
“Having sent Wang Xuanping away, next, let him move bricks for a few days. After the promotion celebration of Mystique Kingdom is over, then start scouting out the plans behind him,” Ye Feng whispered to himself.
At that moment, Gong Qingqiu approached.
“Sect Leader, I have something to report,” she said.
“What is it?”
Ye Feng turned around to look at Gong Qingqiu’s lovely visage.
“Those tens of thousands of pitiful women have been organized into an assassination group called ‘Heiluo Sha,’ and they have received professional training, swearing to die for the Sect Leader,” Gong Qingqiu reported, bowing slightly.
“Huh?”
Ye Feng was flabbergasted.
He had merely instructed Gong Qingqiu to take care of those women, never imagining she would turn them into an assassin organization.
Heiluo Sha?
That name… doesn’t sound very pleasant!
Better something like “Black Rose” or “Black Widow”!
“Where are they now?”
Despite his confusion and surprise, Ye Feng still affirmed Gong Qingqiu’s effort.
“Please follow me,” Gong Qingqiu said, leading the way.
The two left Misty Peak, landing in a dense forest near Whitefloat City.
Enshrouded by miles of fog, upon entering, they discovered a small lake.
By the lakeside lay many peculiar green brick structures.
The area had become something like a military camp, with women clad in heavy armor running along the lakeside paths, honing their physical and mental strength.
Others sparred on the lake, displaying assassination spells like “Backstab”, appearing and vanishing without a trace.
Even cultivators one or two realms higher than these women could meet their end if they were not careful.
“Sect Leader, this is where all members of Heiluo Sha live. I’ve renamed this place ‘Luosha City,'” Gong Qingqiu stated.
Hearing this, Ye Feng nodded and said,
“Not bad, the training is quite good too.”
“Sadly, what’s lacking is a secret technique that is truly suited to them, to fully wield their strength,” he commented, though speaking softly, his voice spread throughout Luosha City.
All the women looked over upon hearing him, their eyes blazing with fervent adoration when they saw the jade-like Ye Feng.
