414: The path of cultivation, chaotic aura

“Hmph, is that all?”

“You guys, do you take this Seat for some easy-to-bully Loose Cultivator?!”

As you spoke, you performed Soul Search on the Peddler.

In an instant, a flood of memories surged into your mind.

You gained a general understanding of your current location.

Within the Chaos Qi of the Outer Universe, there were many gathering places for Cultivators.

And Hun Tian Town, where you currently were, was one of them.

Not far from it were several other Cultivator gathering places, the largest of which was Hunyuan City.

As for other places, the Peddler’s memory didn't contain any, because Hunyuan City was already the most prosperous place he had ever visited in his life.

After organizing the memories in your mind, you sneered and looked at the town chief.

After a moment of hesitation, he offered five hundred Chaos Stones as compensation to you.

You accepted them, then swaggered out of Hun Tian Town, heading towards other Cultivator gathering places nearby.

Based on the memories from the previous Soul Search, you quickly arrived at Qingsha Town, near Hun Tian Town.

You didn't immediately begin to Cultivate the Cultivation Techniques of these Cultivators, but instead started shopping in the town.

You purchased some resources that could aid your Cultivation, then rented a quiet courtyard.

Only after completing all of this did you begin to Cultivate the Cultivation method from the Peddler’s mind.

This item was named Hun Tian Art, after Hun Tian Town.

Although its Rank was not high, it allowed Cultivators to better resist Chaos Qi.

And through this Cultivation Technique, you learned that the Cultivation path of Outer Universe Cultivators was completely different from yours.

The energy absorbed by Outer Universe Cultivators was called Chaos Spiritual Energy.

It was extremely similar to Chaos Qi.

But the difference was, while both contained vast energy, Chaos Qi could not be absorbed by Cultivators; instead, it would bring endless suffering to Cultivators.

Chaos Spiritual Energy, however, was the complete opposite.

It was balanced and easy to absorb, the coveted treasure of all Outer Universe Cultivators.

However, compared to Chaos Qi, Chaos Spiritual Energy was simply too scarce.

Cultivators had to search in the Chaos Qi for dozens of days to obtain a wisp of Chaos Spiritual Energy.

But none of this was a problem for you.

As long as you could obtain a wisp of Chaos Spiritual Energy and embark on the Cultivation path of Outer Universe Cultivators, then you could continuously improve by relying on Growing Day by Day.

You first began to Cultivate the Cultivation Technique; after mastering it, you plunged headfirst into the Chaos Qi.

You began to search based on the appearance of Chaos Spiritual Energy in the memories.

But who would have thought?

Dozens of days passed in a hurry, yet you hadn't even seen a single strand of Chaos Spiritual Energy.

Out of helplessness, you had to temporarily return to Qingsha Town to recover.

Half a month later, you set off again.

This time, you still found nothing.

This made you question the authenticity of the Peddler’s memories.

But there was no other way; as time passed, you could only embark on the journey back.

However, just as you were about to return empty-handed, you suddenly saw a Cultivator.

And what he held in his hand was precisely a wisp of Chaos Spiritual Energy!

Your heart rejoiced, and you instantly appeared beside that Cultivator.

“Young friend, don’t leave.”

“This Seat can exchange four hundred Chaos Stones for the Chaos Spiritual Energy in your hand, how about it?”

You spoke confidently.

Through the memories you had previously searched, you clearly knew the value of Chaos Spiritual Energy.

Roughly three hundred Chaos Stones could exchange for a wisp; what you offered was already a very high price.

But what you didn't expect was that the Cultivator didn't want to exchange with you; instead, he shook you off and went on his way towards Qingsha Town.

A cold glint instantly flashed in your eyes.

“Young friend…”

“Scram!”

As soon as the words fell, a Fatal Strike shot out, heading straight for that Cultivator!

“You’re courting death!”

He shouted loudly, and immediately unleashed several sword lights.

However, how could his attacks compare to a Fatal Strike?

The moment the two made contact, his attacks all turned into dust, vanishing into thin air!

That Cultivator still wanted to struggle, but no matter what defensive measures he used, they would be instantly annihilated by the Fatal Strike.

Ultimately, he could only let out a mournful scream, completely dissipating between heaven and earth.

After killing him, you directly began to absorb this wisp of Chaos Spiritual Energy, successfully embarking on the Cultivation path of Outer Universe Cultivators.

But who would have thought?

Before you could even find a place to lay low, you felt an intense warning from your Crisis Awareness.

You didn't know who the opponent was, but since the Crisis Awareness appeared at this time, it must be related to the Cultivator you had just killed.

This made you feel a bit helpless.

But at this moment, you had no choice but to rest in a place where the Chaos Qi was relatively thin, waiting for the opponent to arrive.

Soon, a golden light appeared from afar, shooting towards your direction.

And because of the great distance, God of One-on-One Battles was not triggered.

Out of helplessness, you had to unleash a Fatal Strike, simultaneously blocking the opponent's attack and completely eliminating him.

“Rumble…”

As an invisible energy appeared and then disappeared, the Cultivator who attacked you was also declared fallen.

But what you didn't expect was that the warning from your Crisis Awareness did not disappear; instead, it intensified.

“Damn it, who exactly was that kid?”

“Why are so many people suddenly coming to avenge him?”

You muttered to yourself.

But at this very moment, several attacks once again swept in from the horizon.

Each of them brought you a fatal threat.

Helpless, you had to throw out dozens of Fatal Strikes, completely eliminating them.

The Crisis Awareness began to gradually recede.

You realized that you were temporarily safe.

Although you didn't know the opponent's identity, for now, you just needed to lay low; given some time, no matter who the opponent was, you wouldn't be afraid in the slightest.

You activated Celestial Travel and returned to Qingsha Town.

But just as you found a corner and were about to enter seclusion, you suddenly felt several powerful auras.

This immediately made you feel that something was amiss.

Although the Crisis Awareness had not given you a warning, you still decided to leave here.
