45: The saint's bones were dug up right at the start!
The seven treasures wonderful tree unleashed its full power, instantly piercing through the bodies of Wu Tian and Han Zhi, and the vines delivered their corpses right in front of Shen Xuansheng.
"Junior Brother, Junior Sister, look at the mess you've made. It's truly unsightly."
The Fire God Son sighed, retrieved their Storage Pouches, and handed them to Shen Xuansheng.
"Junior Brother, Junior Sister, may you travel well. Your Senior Brother won't see you off." As the Fire God Son spoke, flames erupted, and under their desperate gazes, the fire consumed their bodies until they were completely incinerated.
Putting away the seven treasures wonderful tree, Shen Xuansheng tossed a palm-sized Bagua Circular Plate to the Fire God Son and said, "I won't give you a soul jade tablet. This item allows you to communicate directly with me. If you need someone else killed, just tell me."
Opening the two Storage Pouches, he found over four thousand fire god crystals inside. Satisfied, Shen Xuansheng put the fire god crystals away and looked at the Fox Maiden: "Come back to the Sect with me."
The Fox Maiden asked curiously, "I can join the Jiesheng Sect just like that?"
"Yes, the Sect does possess the Legacy of the Innate Spirit Fox. However, I cannot guarantee whether you will obtain it. But, in the event you don't receive the Innate Spirit Fox Legacy, I can ensure you receive another Fox Clan Legacy."
Hearing this, the Fox Maiden was immediately overjoyed: "Thank you!"
Shen Xuansheng left with the Fox Maiden. The Fire God Son extracted two fragmented Divine Souls, then slammed a palm onto his own chest, spitting out a large mouthful of blood. He then carried the two fragmented Divine Souls, whose consciousness had been erased, and 'fled' 'wretchedly' towards the Fire God Sect.
As for the Fire God Son's situation, Shen Xuansheng wasn't worried at all. According to what the Fire God Son said, with these two dead, the Fire God Son's position would only become more stable, as there was no one left to replace him.
Even if the Fire God Cult Master was dissatisfied, the Fire God Son's position as a figurehead was still necessary until a replacement appeared.
Unless a Disciple capable of replacing the Fire God Son appeared in a short time.
Clearly, there was no such person in the Fire God Sect.
The Disciples of the Fire God Sect primarily Cultivated fire attributes, which severely limited the Fire God Sect. Geniuses were easy to find, but restricted Geniuses were much harder to locate.
Inside the Jiesheng Sect.
In front of a pavilion.
"This building is called the Boundary Tower, but our Disciples usually call it the Treasure Pavilion or the Cultivation Technique Pavilion. Inside this Boundary Tower are exclusively Cultivation Techniques, Divine Abilities, and Spells. Everyone can enter after Qi Refining to find a Cultivation Technique that suits them."
The Fox Maiden looked at the three-story pavilion and asked curiously, "Such a small pavilion hides the entire collection of the Jiesheng Sect?"
Shen Xuansheng smiled faintly.
"Who told you it was only a small three-story building?"
As Shen Xuansheng spoke, the pavilion opened, and an Elder slowly walked out: "After you enter, release your Bloodline Power, and Legacies that share the same origin as you will naturally appear."
"Although the Legacy of the Innate Spirit Fox is powerful, it is difficult to obtain. I suggest you first choose the Innate Spirit Fox Legacy, and if that fails, choose the Immortal Fox Clan Legacy. If that still fails, there is a third Legacy: the Nine-Tailed Fox Yao."
"If you can't obtain any of these three, then directly select a Yao Race Bloodline Cultivation Technique that can enhance your Bloodline Power. Try again after you reach the Nirvana Realm."
Listening to the Elder's words, the Fox Maiden's pair of enchanting eyes were filled with disbelief.
"Are you saying I can keep choosing until I get what I need?" Although the Fox Maiden had never joined a Sect Denomination, everyone knew the rules of Sects and denominations. Which other place would let you choose like this?
Even within her own clan, they wouldn't allow such choices.
"If it's not suitable for you, why bother Cultivating Immortality?"
"Since you are Cultivating, it must be suitable for yourself."
"However, there is one more point: if none of the three Legacies work for you, you can only Cultivate in the Outer Sect. The Disciples of the Inner Sect cannot afford such a disgrace. You can return to the Inner Sect once you obtain a Legacy."
After the Elder finished speaking, he gently waved his hand, and the Fox Maiden was directly thrown inside.
The Fox Maiden passed through the pavilion gate, and upon entering, her eyes widened: "This is actually a Small World??"
"Thank you, Elder," Shen Xuansheng said, cupping his hands.
The Elder glared at Shen Xuansheng irritably: "Lately, many people from the Heaven Refining Flood Dragon Clan have come over. I heard from outsiders that you granted them permission?"
Shen Xuansheng nodded: "Yes, they exchanged dragon blood vermilion fruit for it."
"Kid, although the dragon blood vermilion fruit is good in the early stages, it is only for foundation building. It can be used as a long-term resource. However, I suggest you take a trip to the Netherfire Divine Nether Python Dragon Clan in the Hundred Thousand Yao Mountains."
"The Dragon Clan Boundary Gate has not opened yet. This Netherfire Divine Nether Clan is not weaker than the Dragon Clan. Most importantly, the Netherfire Divine Nether Fruit from their clan has the effect of tempering the Golden Core, potentially allowing the user to generate a wisp of Netherfire Qi within their body. Although it's only a probability, once it appears, their strength will multiply."
"There is a Netherfire Bloodline Legacy inside this Boundary Tower. It is the complete Legacy of the first Netherfire Divine Nether Python Dragon from the beginning of time, which is equivalent to an Ancestral Dragon among the Dragon Clan."
Shen Xuansheng took a deep breath.
"Elder, what is the output of the Netherfire Divine Nether Fruit?"
The Elder's mouth twitched: "It's about the same as the dragon blood vermilion fruit."
"Good!"
"This junior understands!"
"When this junior has time, I will definitely go!"
Shen Xuansheng had just turned around.
When he saw a person carrying another person running towards him.
"Senior Brother, help me!!"
Ye Fan, carrying a person, ran up to Shen Xuansheng and immediately knelt down with a thud.
"Senior Brother, save him."
Lin Fan put down the person he was carrying and spoke to Shen Xuansheng.
"Let's go to my place first."
Inside Shen Xuansheng's Small Courtyard.
Looking at the lying Youth, whose face was pale, chest cut open, breath faint, and life force almost completely gone.
"He is not a Disciple of our Sect, is he?"
Shen Xuansheng asked after a glance.
Lin Fan nodded: "Senior Brother, his name is Chu Feng. He is a friend I grew up with. Chu Feng is stronger than me; he was born with a saint bone inside his body. I was originally planning to return from Qin State, but I received a notification from Chu Feng halfway. By the time I arrived at Chu Feng's home, he was already like this."
"Senior Brother, when I rushed over, Chu Feng told me that his Younger Brother, in collusion with people from the Shenyi Sect, dug out his saint bone."
"So, you brought him here for me to save him?" Shen Xuansheng asked.
Lin Fan nodded: "Yes."
"I can save him, but as for the rest, it depends on him after he wakes up." Shen Xuansheng said, producing a Medicinal Pill in his hand. After crushing it, it turned into energy that surged into Chu Feng's body.
A quarter of an hour later.
Chu Feng slowly woke up.
"Chu Feng, you're awake?" Lin Fan cried out in surprise upon seeing the awakened Chu Feng.
Chu Feng looked weakly at Lin Fan, tears streaming down his face: "Lin Fan, that Dog Thief dug out my saint bone, and my Cultivation has been crippled."
"I'm finished!"
Lin Fan looked at Chu Feng, unsure of what to say.
"Chu Feng, this is the Jiesheng Sect. My Senior Brother saved you." Lin Fan quickly said.
Chu Feng's gaze turned toward Shen Xuansheng, who was sitting not far away.
Supported by Lin Fan, he approached Shen Xuansheng and immediately knelt down: "Your life-saving grace, Chu Feng will never forget."
Shen Xuansheng glanced at him indifferently.
"Our Sect has many ways to help you recover your saint bone, provided we retrieve it. Are you interested?" Shen Xuansheng asked with a smile.
Chu Feng was stunned.
Then he was overjoyed: "If Senior Brother doesn't mind, I am willing to join the Jiesheng Sect and never betray it for all eternity!"
"Since that is the case, what should you call me?" Shen Xuansheng asked.
Chu Feng: "Chu Feng greets Senior Brother!"
Shen Xuansheng waved his hand grandly.
"Shenyi Sect, since you dared to touch a Disciple of my Jiesheng Sect, you shall be destroyed!!"
