Immortal and Martial Dual Cultivation Chapter 1588 Raw 1570 : Disposing of a Used Tool

Chapter 1588 (Raw 1570): Disposing of a Used Tool

This information stunned Xiao Chen for a while. It took him some time to react.

To think that he actually ran into a spirit pet of Pan Huang. This seemed like too much of a coincidence.

“What’s wrong? Have you never heard of my master’s name? That should not be so. Even in the Central Great Realm, the core in this boundless Great Thousand Realms, few would not know the name of the Spring Snow Bladesman.”

The Spring Snow Bladesman?

What a great name. Xiao Chen immediately understood the meaning of this name.

The first time Xiao Chen saw Pan Huang’s sculpture in Pan Huang Hall, what made the deepest impression on him was Pan Huang’s smile.

Spring snow probably referred to Pan Huang’s smile. It was like the first warm wind of spring melting the last snow of winter.

Most cultivators who were given a nickname or title would generally have one that was tyrannical in all sorts of ways.

A nickname like “spring snow” was rare. It could only be said that Pan Huang’s smile truly left a deep impression.

Without saying anything, Xiao Chen took out the Saber Sovereign Medallion.

The atmosphere immediately changed. The Jiao Snake exclaimed in shock, “What is this? Pan Huang’s aura is on it!”

“Looks like it is true.”

Xiao Chen spoke honestly, explaining about his fortuitous encounter with Pan Huang.

“Hahaha! This world is truly full of coincidences. Since you have accepted Pan Huang’s inheritance, you can be considered as half a disciple to Pan Huang. I have no grievances over letting you have that ten-thousand-year-old Baleful Yin Energy at all.”

After the Jiao Snake heard that, its mood took a turn for the better, its depression completely swept away.

Xiao Chen said, “Is Senior Pan Huang still around?”

“I’m not sure. Master Pan Huang lives a carefree life and looks on the bright side in all matters. He loves roaming around. Back then, I was too severely injured. After he saved me, he let me leave.”

“Why?”

“After I was healed, my cultivation dropped too much. Furthermore, Master had a little too many enemies. Clearly, I was no longer suitable to follow Master. Master pitied me and dissolved the contract to let me leave.”

When the Jiao Snake mentioned Pan Huang, its mood turned somewhat sorrowful. It thought about the days it spent following Pan Huang.

Clearly, the Jiao Snake had an extremely close relationship with Pan Huang back then.

Xiao Chen suddenly felt enlightened. No wonder when he first saw the Jiao Snake, he had felt that it was extraordinary with a unique air.

Its cultivation back then had been greater than Major Primal Core Realm.

Now, its cultivation was no longer as high as before, but it still possessed its previous air.

A thought occurred to Xiao Chen as he looked at the Jiao Snake and asked, “Senior Jiao Snake, what are your plans now?”

The Jiao Snake smiled and said, “What plans can I have? I definitely cannot remain on this Profound Yin Mountain anymore. I will probably look around and see if I can find any fortuitous encounters to help me break through to the Cloud Sea Realm.”

“Is the Cloud Sea Realm that difficult to break into?”

“Of course. When one reaches the Cloud Sea Realm, one can cultivate Soul Energy and needs a flash of inspiration to light up the sea of consciousness. Without this flash of inspiration, all would be for naught. I am still fine. I still have my cultivation foundation from back then; I just need to obtain the appropriate fortuitous encounter.”

Xiao Chen sank into deep thought. Then, he said, “Senior Jiao Snake, there will be some trouble in the next half month. At that time, I would like to ask you to help me out. In the future, when I become the Dragon Emperor, I will definitely repay this favor.”

The Jiao Snake narrowed its eyes. “Dragon Emperor? Could it be that your bloodline is the Dragon Race’s bloodline? That can’t be. The Dragon Race has a total of six bloodlines: the White Dragon, Black Dragon, Red Dragon, Blue Dragon, Golden Dragon, and Green Dragon. Furthermore, I have met every one of them before.”

“I’m from the Azure Dragon’s bloodline,” Xiao Chen answered honestly.

The Jiao Snake exclaimed in shock, “The Azure Dragon’s bloodline! So that is the case. I thought that your Great Desolate Hundred Races’ bloodline felt very familiar, but I just could not figure out which it was. It turned out to be the extinct Azure Dragon’s bloodline.”

Xiao Chen nodded and looked at the other party, saying, “What does Senior think?”

“It’s fine. No matter what bloodline you have or your identity and origins, with just the fact that you are half a disciple to Pan Huang, I will definitely help you with this!”

This senior Jiao Snake was unusually straightforward. It did not even ask Xiao Chen about the trouble or any details, just immediately agreed; this touched Xiao Chen.

“You should cultivate properly first. As you are, right now, the energy of the Baleful Yin Energy is leaking out of your body uncontrollably. Not to mention the wastage, if others discover it, they might not let you leave.”

Xiao Chen nodded in understanding. Even if one already absorbed the ten-thousand-year-old Baleful Yin Energy, there were many ways to extract it from one’s body.

Following that, Xiao Chen told the other party about the trouble he encountered.

The Jiao Snake smiled and said, “I thought it was some major matter. It turns out to be just trivial. Don’t worry. I’ll help you with this. I’ll make a trip around Profound Yin Mountain first. Since I’m leaving, I should go and search for some treasures.”

“Many thanks.”

When Xiao Chen emerged from the underground river, he saw Luo Nan and Fei`er, who had been waiting a long time for him. The two’s expressions appeared somewhat anxious.

When the two saw Xiao Chen, Fei`er revealed a faint smile. “Big Brother Xiao Chen, you finally came out. If you still had not, Senior Brother and I would have gone back to find you.”

“It’s fine. I spent some time collecting Yin Essence Stones.” Xiao Chen added after some thought, “There is still half a month. We should not go anywhere else, just remain here and solidify our cultivations.”

“Right, I was thinking the same.” Now that Luo Nan and Fei`er had obtained what they came for, they were not willing to take any more risks.

One complete strand of one-thousand-year-old Baleful Yin Energy each was already sufficient for the two to cultivate throughout the entire Yin Essence Stage.

The vast energy of the ten-thousand-year-old Baleful Yin Energy far surpassed Xiao Chen’s energy. Now, the energy of the Baleful Yin Energy leaked out of his body. Like the Jiao Snake said, that was a great waste.

In Xiao Chen’s dantian, the Veritable Essence Energy and the Yin Essence Energy mixed, interacting with each other.

Xiao Chen had found it strange when he discovered that when the two fused, the Veritable Essence Energy was more prominent, even though Veritable Essence Energy was clearly much weaker.

The inclusion of Yin Essence Energy merely strengthened the Veritable Essence Energy, perfecting it.

If Xiao Chen guessed right, it should be the same in the future when he advanced to the Yang Essence Stage.

Yin Essence Energy and Yang Essence Energy were used to supplement and strengthen Veritable Essence Energy. Cultivators still mainly cultivated Veritable Essence Energy.

At this moment, the Yin Essence Energy transformed from the ten-thousand-year-old Baleful Yin Energy had not truly fused with Xiao Chen’s Veritable Essence Energy, simply mixed with it.

Right now, what Xiao Chen needed to do was to get this vast Yin Essence Energy to infuse into his Veritable Essence Energy and slowly combine.

When Xiao Chen completed the fusion, he would have cultivated to the peak of the Yin Essence Stage.

—

The next half month passed by peacefully.

When Xiao Chen next opened his eyes, the brilliance in them was clearly much more withdrawn.

Xiao Chen’s body had also stopped leaking Yin Essence Energy, no longer radiating that horrifying and exaggerated aura he had when he just advanced to the Yin Essence Stage.

Luo Nan and Fei`er opened their eyes one after another. The feeling that they gave others was surprising.

It looked like the two of them gained a lot in a mere half month.

Fei`er smiled and said, “Master would definitely not have imagined that our strength would improve so much. He will surely be very happy.”

Luo Nan smiled abashedly without saying anything. He and Fei`er were still in a cold war.

At that time, Luo Nan did not know why in the world he said what he did, upsetting his junior sister.

However, it did not matter. It was fine seeing his junior sister happy.

“Let’s go. It’s time to leave.”

One month was already up. All the sect disciples still alive in Profound Yin Island’s inner area rushed back.

The old men at the formation would wait there until sunset, then leave.

By that time, those that had not rushed back yet were probably dead in Profound Yin Island’s inner area, if nothing unexpected happened.

“To think that the Clear Feather Sect’s Fang Yun and the Flying Snow Palace’s Liu Mu did not appear.”

“Could it be that they died? How incredible!”

When Liu Mu and the others did not appear, a discussion arose in the crowd, causing some commotion.

Luo Nan and Fei`er felt somewhat anxious, but Xiao Chen remained calm and at ease.

After a while, the group was sent to the edge of Profound Yin Island through the transportation formation. Then, they all flew into the sky and rejoined their sects.

On the Tianyi Sect’s ship, the blue-clad old man and that half-step Primal Core Realm expert had waited for a long time.

Seeing Xiao Chen, Fei`er, and Luo Nan fly over, the two old men revealed joy on their faces. The blue-clad old man’s eyelid twitched slightly; he had been waiting for this day for too long.

“Hahahaha! Brother Xiao Chen, this old man knew that you would definitely bring them back safely,” the blue-clad old man said with a wide grin as he strode forward.

Fei`er and Luo Nan took out their Yin Essence Stones and handed them to the two old men.

“These are…superior-quality Yin Essence Stones. Fei`er, Luo Nan, you found one-thousand-year-old Baleful Yin Energy!” the blue-clad old man exclaimed in surprise as he looked at the two.

Fei`er nodded and smiled. “Right, Big Brother Xiao Chen helped Senior Brother and me find one strand of Baleful Yin Energy each.”

“What?!”

With this, the blue-clad old man and the half-step Primal Core Realm old man were even more surprised. As they looked at Xiao Chen, their eyes filled with complicated emotions.

Had the two not found out about Xiao Chen being wanted by the Black Lotus Church, perhaps they might have let Xiao Chen off.

For just these two strands of one-thousand-year-old Baleful Yin Energy, the Tianyi Sect would thank Xiao Chen effusively.

Xiao Chen looked at the blue-clad old man and said, “These are my Yin Essence Stones. Seniors, do keep them properly. I’ll be taking my leave, then.”

The blue-clad old man put away the Yin Essence Stones that Xiao Chen handed over, but he did not seem to care for them. He smiled and said, “Young Hero Xiao Chen, I have no idea how to repay this gratitude. How about you return to the Tianyi Sect with us? At that time, I’ll get the Sect Master to host you properly.”

Xiao Chen looked around and realized that without him realizing it, the Tianyi Sect disciples on the ship had gathered behind him, blocking his path.

That half-step Primal Core Realm old man already placed his right hand on his sword handle and started accumulating his killing intent.

Xiao Chen’s expression changed slightly in some surprise. Even after the other party found out that he had helped Fei`er and Luo Nan to refine a strand of Baleful Yin Energy each, the other party still wanted to make a move on him.
