177: The attitude of the Mammoth Sect

When the dense, countless Evil God Snakes appeared in the main hall, the atmosphere in the crowd immediately became oppressive.

For both Mortals and Immortals, vital essence is of utmost importance; easily giving it away can lead to being exploited.

But at this moment, everyone also felt that what the Deputy Hall Master had just said was not a problem.

They had been in the Netherworld Soul Hall for so long, and besides consuming the tampered Divine Demon Pill, there had been nothing else to do.

Thinking of this, and facing the Evil God Snakes, the fear in everyone's hearts immediately decreased significantly, and they began to squeeze out their vital essence to complete the curse.

After all, you can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a child; there's no gain without effort.

"Feng Ge, what do we do now?"

After everyone completed the curse, Tie Zhu turned his head to look at Qin Feng again.

"Do whatever you think is best, I'm going out for a bit."

Qin Feng picked up the basket on the ground, casually gave a few perfunctory replies, and then left the Netherworld Soul Hall, heading towards Wo Niu Mountain.

At this moment.

Next to Wo Niu Mountain.

Yan Sandao and Wang Dalong were still on top of Dingxiang Mountain, guarding the wood carving Qin Feng had carved.

At this moment, the expressions on both their faces were extremely numb.

"It's been two days, why hasn't Revered Master returned yet?"

"I don't know, let's wait a bit longer."

"He only told us to guard for one day, but he didn't say what to do after one day!"

Yan Sandao's face showed a conflicted expression.

His Realm was currently stuck at the Middle Stage of Nascent Soul, on the verge of Breakthrough to the Late Stage, and this in-between state made him very anxious. Yet, they dared not move the wood carving easily, fearing they might break some rule.

Just at this moment.

A white light rapidly streaked through the Void Realm.

After the two recognized the person enveloped in the light, they immediately stood up, cupped their hands, and bowed:

"Revered Master!"

"Hmm, you two did well!"

Qin Feng nodded. To make the act of playing a Heavenly God more convincing, he did not directly choose to put the Evil Sword Immortal statue into his Storage Pouch.

Under the gaze of the two, Qin Feng first took out three sticks of incense, lit them, and stood beside the wood carving to worship. Then, he used his spiritual power to casually draw a few strokes in the Void Realm in the manner of talisman making.

"Revered Master, your disciple is taking you home!"

After completing these procedures, Qin Feng directly put the wood carving into his Storage Pouch and turned to return to Wo Niu Mountain.

Such a grand yet perfunctory approach left Wang Dalong and Yan Sandao dumbfounded.

...

Inside the Immortal Cave.

Qin Feng took out several baskets and continuously picked up various Cultivation Technique methods, sifting through them in his hands.

[Golden Fire Alchemy Art: Yellow Rank High Grade Alchemy Cultivation Technique. When Cultivated to Major Achievement Realm, one can release Pill Fire from thin air, no Pill Furnace needed for Alchemy...

Can be synthesized: Geng Metal Fire Pill Art]

[Profound Nether Pill Art: Profound Rank Medium Grade Alchemy Cultivation Technique. When refining Medicinal Pills, one can use their own vital essence to nourish the Medicinal Pills, increasing success rate by 10%...

[Immortal Spirit Beast Summoning Art: Profound Rank Low Grade Beast Taming Cultivation Technique. This Cultivation Technique excels at refining Spirit Nurturing Pills and making Spirit Beasts feel close, rapidly improving overall strength.

Can be synthesized: Immortal Spirit Beast Art]

...

The several baskets contained various ancient scroll books, filthy scrolls, jade pendants, beast hide books...

As time passed, Qin Feng read through all these Cultivation Techniques and finally selected the several most promising methods: Lesser Taiyi Heavenly Venerate Pill Method, Divine Hammer Cultivation Technique, Beast God Art, and Herb God Curse.

These Cultivation Techniques corresponded to Alchemy, Artifact Refining, Beast Taming, and Spirit Plants respectively, and each had very distinct characteristics.

Once their quality was improved through synthesis, it would cause the Cultivator's attainments in that path to advance by leaps and bounds, much like the difference between an ordinary Gathering Spirit Formation and a Heaven Rank Gathering Spirit Formation.

"Now that I have the Cultivation Techniques, it's time to start copying them."

Qin Feng frowned and placed the four selected methods on the table: two books, one scroll, and one jade stone.

Copying books was simple, scrolls were a bit harder, and the jade stone's craftsmanship was the most troublesome, requiring the purchase of special jade stones specifically for recording Cultivation Techniques.

With Revered Master Evil Sword Immortal's wood carving to take the blame, Qin Feng didn't plan to work hard by himself this time. The Netherworld Soul Hall had so many Core Formation stage cultivators; it would be a waste not to use them!

After a simple tidying up, Qin Feng stood up and left the Immortal Cave.

As he walked out of the Immortal Cave, Yan Sandao was already waiting at the entrance. Seeing Qin Feng emerge, he immediately greeted him with a smile: "Revered Master, are you going out again?"

This posture clearly indicated he was waiting to use the Xuan Kun Devouring Heaven Formation.

Qin Feng simply turned back into the Immortal Cave, took out the Xuan Kun Devouring Heaven Formation, and handed it to him, deciding to let everyone share it.

Leaving Wo Niu Mountain, Qin Feng was about to use his escape light to fly towards the Netherworld Soul Hall when he suddenly saw a figure slowly ascending the mountain at the foot of the mountain.

That person's body was extremely plump and round, wearing a loose black robe, looking like a clumsy black bear. He was propping himself with a wooden stick, stopping every few steps to catch his breath, then grumbling and complaining about how hard Wo Niu Mountain was to climb...

As if sensing something, he immediately looked up and met the gaze of the red-faced burly Cultivator in the air.

"Why does this feel familiar?"

Lu Xiuwen frowned and muttered, his gaze constantly shifting between Wo Niu Mountain and Qin Feng in the air.

"Kid, are you looking for me?"

Feeling that Lu Xiuwen was about to be confused, Qin Feng directly transformed his appearance into that of a frail scholar, which was how he looked when he first met Lu Xiuwen.

"Big Brother! I finally found you!"

Recognizing that person as his Big Brother, Lu Xiuwen immediately let out a mournful howl, then with a leap, he crashed through the branches blocking his path and flew straight towards Qin Feng.

Qin Feng took a closer look. Lu Xiuwen's Realm had already reached the Core Formation Late Stage. His spiritual power was abundant, and his physical strength was terrifyingly strong, clearly indicating he had Cultivated some core method of the Giant Elephant Sect.

Based on the aura he had just erupted, Qin Feng estimated that this chubby fellow could easily fight ten opponents of the same Realm.

Lu Xiuwen gave Qin Feng a bear hug, his round little eyes blinking constantly, and at the same time, he asked smugly, "Big Brother, don't you have anything to say to me?"

"Your current strength is excellent."

Qin Feng gave a perfunctory reply, then once again transformed his appearance into that of the red-faced burly man.

There was a difference between one or two people knowing his identity and a group of people knowing. Although everyone in the Netherworld Soul Hall had consumed the Divine Demon Pill, Qin Feng still did not trust them, at least not until his own strength could completely protect himself!

"Big Brother, where are you going?"

"To do something."

Qin Feng said, then quickly flew towards the Netherworld Soul Hall, letting Lu Xiuwen follow behind him.

Those people in the Netherworld Soul Hall were too lazy; it was time to give them a little shock from the Three Sects Six Pavilions of Lingzhou.

The two flew unhurriedly, while Lu Xiuwen spoke to Qin Feng with a solemn expression:

"Big Brother, I came this time mainly to inform you of something. This matter will be of great benefit to both of us!"

"What is it?"

"The Three Sects and Six Pavilions of Lingzhou will open the Battle Heaven Divine Platform three months from now. At that time, each force will send two people to participate, and the five ultimate winners can enter the Five Great Immortal Sects to Cultivate.

In our world, the Five Great Immortal Sects are the true Immortal sects!"

"Your Giant Elephant Sect has two spots; are you planning to give me one?"

"That's right, you're the Giant Elephant Sect's First Saint, and I'm the Second."

Lu Xiuwen grinned carelessly, but Qin Feng couldn't help but feel a little confused.

Was the Giant Elephant Sect serious about this?

But what did he have that they could be interested in?
