  앞에 섬이 있는 것 같은데,

[20:44] why don't we go rest for a bit?

  동료 여러분, 여기 계시는 게 좋지 않겠어요.

[26:29] Right, it started 20 years ago.
  맞아요, 20년 전에 시작되었어요.

[26:33] Unfortunately, the Wondrous Depths sea area has become a barren land, where the Human realm's might has been diminished to a mere fraction of what it once was.

  제가 아니라고 하면요?

[27:29] I would not dare to force you, sorry for being so dull.

[27:33] I only hope you'll grant a child's little wish.
  저는 단지 아이의 작은 소원을 들어주시길 바랄 뿐입니다.

[27:36] If you'll give me an honor, even as a servant, your humble servant, - I'll do it.
  존경을 베풀어 주신다면, 하인으로서라도, 당신의 겸손한 하인으로서, - 제가 하겠습니다.

[27:44] Servant?
  하인?

[27:44] Junior, are you out of your mind?
  후배, 제정신이야?

[27:58] This is Marigold Grass, it's supposed to dredge the channels and collaterals, and it should work if you combine it with Ghost Dark Ginseng and Red Refined Crystal.
  이것은 금잔화 풀인데, 경락을 뚫어주는 역할을 해야 하고, 귀영삼과 적정석과 결합하면 효과가 있을 것입니다.

[43:18] This fellow must be a hermit.
  이 사람은 은둔자임이 틀림없어요.

[43:20] So many materials.
  재료가 정말 많네요.

[43:21] This person kept his cool,
  이 사람은 침착함을 유지했군요,

[43:24] and wasn't swayed by anything,

[43:26] it looks like

[43:27] he's desperate to sell something.

[43:30] I'd only sell it

[43:31] to someone who knows about it.

[43:34] The cooper sheet

[43:36] looks so familiar.

[43:39] Is it...

[43:43] Mr. Sun,

[43:44] you're so well-to-do,

[43:45] it's the bone of an eighth-rank demonic beast.

[43:48] There're so many people with unusual abilities

[43:50] at today's exchange meeting.

[43:54] Fellow, you've got the bone,

[43:57] so do you know where eighth-rank demonic beast's cave is?

[44:06] What does he mean? It can't be...

[44:08] He also wants to go there?

[44:12] I'm just trying

[44:13] to exchange the information.

[44:16] You can choose

[44:19] whatever demonic cores or materials you want.

[44:26] What you offer

[44:27] is so attractive.

[44:29] I wish I had the luck to take it,

[44:32] but I don't know

[44:35] where the Eighth-rank demonic beast is.

[44:37] Whether he does not know about it or he is unwilling to say it,

[44:40] it's a waste of time here.

[44:43] Senior,

[44:44] I might know

[44:46] where the Eighth-rank demonic beast's cave is.

[44:49] This little girl...

[44:51] Mind your words.

[44:52] Everyone here is senior and talent,

[44:54] how dare you interrupt us?

[44:57] Siyue,

[44:58] don't talk nonsense,

[44:59] and mislead this senior,

[45:01] you can't afford it.

[45:03] Forgive me, senior.

[45:04] But I accidentally know

[45:08] the location of eighth-rank demonic beast's cave,

[45:10] I didn't lie to you,

[45:11] trust me, please.

[45:14] Clam down, Fellow Yun,

[45:16] let's hear her out.

[45:18] I can tell

[45:20] if she is right

[45:21] or not.

[45:23] Now that Senior Li has agreed.

[45:26] Martial Niece Siyue,

[45:27] you must

[45:29] speak without reservation.

[45:35] Trust me, Senior, please,

[45:36] when I

[45:37] was chased by demonic beasts,

[45:40] I saw a Windbreak Beast baby,

[45:42] I guess you're aware of

[45:44] Windbreak Beast's habits.

[45:46] I think

[45:47] the adult demonic beast's cave

[45:49] must be nearby.

[45:50] Windbreak Beast

[45:52] is the top one in the feathered race,

[45:54] and they always live after nesting.

[45:56] The adult one will protect its baby, while shapeshifting demonic beast will be on guard.

[45:59] It's highly possible that Demon Echo Grass is growing near the nest.

[46:04] As long as you can grant my wish,

[46:06] I'm willing to be your guide,

[46:08] You...

[46:08] Go on, say it.

[46:16] May I make bold

[46:17] to ask you to get me out of here?

[46:34] Martial Niece Siyue,

[46:36] why did you say that?

[46:39] Did I treat

[46:40] you badly?

[46:42] What is done cannot be undone,

[46:45] mind your words.

[46:51] Fellow Yun,

[46:54] she asked me to get her out of here,

[46:57] am I right?

[47:14] As you can grant my wish,

[47:17] get me out of his control,

[47:19] and no longer be a servant,

[47:22] I'll do whatever it takes.

[47:41] Fellow Li, sorry for that,

[47:43] this idiot servant

[47:44] is out of her mind

[47:46] from practicing martial arts.

[47:48] Guards,

[47:49] take her away,

[47:50] confine her spiritual power

[47:52] and lock her into the isolation chamber.

[47:53] Yes, Elder.

[47:55] Senior.

[47:56] Wait.

[47:57] Why?

[47:59] Fellow Li,

[48:00] do you like this girl?

[48:07] I'm indeed

[48:09] interested in the information she offers.

[48:12] How about this?

[48:13] I'll give you all the materials,

[48:15] and you'll

[48:16] let her go.

[48:18] What do you think?

[48:25] Fellow Li, you must be joking.

[48:28] If

[48:29] it's allowed this time,

[48:31] anyone who likes female cultivators of my sect

[48:33] can get her out of here,

[48:35] how could my sect run then?

[48:39] This little girl...

[48:42] But,

[48:43] Fellow Li,

[48:45] we hit it off,

[48:47] why not

[48:48] be friends?

[48:50] I'll find a way

[48:51] to let this idiot servant

[48:52] tell the information

[48:54] you need.

[48:56] - Fellow, - Senior...

[48:57] What do you think?

[49:03] I do appreciate

[49:05] your kindness.

[49:15] But this young lady said,

[49:18] she only wants me

[49:20] to get her

[49:22] out of here.

[49:24] How could

[49:26] I mistreat this junior?

[49:29] Fellow Li, look before you leap.

[49:33] It's not worth it

[49:36] to embarrass everyone here.

[50:36] If you insist on taking her away,

[50:39] it may get you in trouble.

[51:02] Sir.

[51:04] Silence.

[51:15] I'll definitely take her away.

[51:18] No more threats, I suggest.

[51:23] Otherwise, if I get upset,

[51:25] I may turn it into a hell.

[51:34] (Episode 127 Upheaval in Outer Sea Season 1)

[51:59] I'll take this one, what do you want to swap?

[52:07] This is fine.

[52:12] I'm not pushy or anything,

[52:14] and won't take your female cultivator without giving anything back.

[52:18] I'll use the rest of the materials

[52:20] to change for her freedom.

[52:26] Wait, Senior.

[52:30] A few months ago,

[52:32] our sect found an ancient transportation formation by accident.

[52:35] If we can fix it,

[52:37] it'll take you straight to the Inner Sea of Stars.

[52:39] We just need the last of the materials,

[52:42] Phantasm Stone.

[52:44] But there are a lot of high-level demonic beasts

[52:45] living around the mine.

[52:48] Elder Yun contacted Miaohe Sage,

[52:51] who's already said he'll be there,

[52:54] and Siyue

[52:55] is a gift that the Senior wants.

[52:59] So now,

[53:01] I guess we have to find another way.

[53:03] Unless

[53:05] you fellows

[53:06] would like to lend a hand.

[53:07] I'm not interested.

[53:09] and not free.

[53:11] Enjoy yourselves, fellows,

[53:12] I'm off then.

[53:18] How could he be a Core Formation cultivator?

[53:21] Could he be that Nascent Soul evil in disguise?

[53:35] There is not much spiritual aura,

[53:37] but no inhabitants here,

[53:38] it's a good place for silent cultivation.

[53:40] On the way here, I've removed your sect's Pulling Magic mark.

[53:44] Don't worry, they won't find you.

[53:47] Thank you, Senior.

[53:49] He is

[53:50] so kind,

[53:52] but a little old.

[53:54] Wait outside.

[53:55] I'll let you know

[53:56] if I need anything.

[53:58] Yes, Senior.

[54:00] Am I going to be with him...

[54:03] Wen Siyue,

[54:04] what are you thinking?

[54:10] No, nothing.

[54:11] Let me know

[54:12] when you're ready.

[54:29] She is still

[54:30] as flustered as before.

[54:32] She was so reckless,

[54:34] using herself to make a deal,

[54:35] then she should be scared of me.

[54:38] Okay,

[54:39] I can finally have a look at this copper sheet.

[54:46] I'm wondering if I've seen this character before.

[54:52] Qi-suppresing Art.

[54:57] The character structure is mostly the same

[54:59] between the one on the copper sheet and the animal skin book,

[55:01] but

[55:02] there are subtle differences.

[55:05] I'm stumped.

[55:23] There are

[55:24] 36 gestures.

[55:25] Can't Demonic beasts

[55:26] have the spiritual aura and cultivate themselves

[55:28] when they're born?

[55:30] So

[55:31] high-level demonic beasts

[55:33] have their own cultivation methods?

[55:35] That's a bit beyond my expectations.

[55:37] But

[55:38] if a human used demon cultivation methods,

[55:40] will my mind become addled if something goes wrong?

[55:44] I've got loads of high-level cultivation methods,

[55:46] the whole set of Dark Moon Arts is in my storage pouch,

[55:47] but I haven't started yet.

[55:49] Alright then,

[55:50] I'd keep it for now,

[55:52] I might need it someday.

[56:13] Good.

[56:16] Senior,

[56:17] I've sorted everything out here.

[56:18] I don't know what your lifestyle is,

[56:20] so I've decorated here as the way my sect leader would have liked.

[56:23] Please check it,

[56:24] and let me know

[56:25] if there is anything you want to change,

[56:26] I'll do it.

[56:30] Actually,

[56:31] no need to show much consideration for me,

[56:33] this place is for you.

[56:40] These are Formation Plate and method of entrance to this cave.

[56:43] They're for me?

[56:45] Senior,

[56:46] how could I receive these?

[56:48] You saved me,

[56:49] I haven't repaid you.

[56:51] How could I deserve your kindness again?

[56:53] I don't know how to repay you.

[56:55] She is older,

[56:58] but her temperament hasn't changed.

[57:01] Senior,

[57:02] if you don't mind,

[57:04] I can do it.

[57:07] As I've promised you,

[57:10] it's okay if only I won't be Cultivation Vessel.

[57:12] What are you saying?

[57:13] I like to be alone,

[57:15] and don't want a follower,

[57:17] besides,

[57:18] I'm as old as your grandfather.

[57:21] Do not mention anything like

[57:23] the concubine or Cultivation Vessel.

[57:28] Yes, yes, Senior.

[57:30] Senior,

[57:32] I'm wondering what're you going to do then.

[57:35] The transportation formation that Madam Fan mentioned

[57:37] is true.

[57:39] Senior,

[57:40] you sure you don't want to head back to the Inner Sea?

[57:42] What?

[57:43] Do you want to go?

[57:44] Of course.

[57:47] I want to return to look for my Miss,

[57:49] and Senior Han.

[57:51] I don't know how they are doing now.

[57:55] Didn't expect her to care about us.

[58:00] Oh, right,

[58:01] wasn't Melodious Sect in Heavenly Star City of Inner Sea,

[58:04] why you're here?

[58:06] Senior, you've got loads of experience.

[58:08] That year, sect leader went to Void Heaven Hall

[58:10] with Grand Elder of Star Palace,

[58:11] but some powerful cultivators of Demonic Sects

[58:13] appeared in our sect,

[58:15] while our sect leader was not there.

[58:16] No one can guard Star Palace,

[58:18] all our sect was under our control.

[58:20] Envoy of the right, Zhuo was missing,

[58:21] to protect everyone, Envoy of the left,

[58:23] Fan was blackmailed into taking

[58:24] us here by the transportation formation in Heavenly Star City.

[58:27] Then,

[58:28] I've heard that Demonic Sects started an insurrection against Star Palace,

[58:31] and we're stuck here.

[58:32] These years,

[58:34] some female cultivators are missing,

[58:36] while some have been sent away.

[58:37] Madam Fan does her best,

[58:39] but she's not strong enough.

[58:41] There's something fishy going on.

[58:42] Without your help...

[58:42] Demonic Sects

[58:43] sneaked into Heavenly Star City,

[58:46] only to grab all the Melodious Sect.

[58:48] What secret does Melodious Sect have

[58:50] that the Demonic Sect would even use such a strategy?

[58:53] Alright then,

[58:54] as you've been freed,

[58:56] you can tell me the location of the demonic beast's lair.

[59:01] This is the track of Windbreaker Beast cub on that day.

[59:04] Please take it, Senior.

[59:06] The destination

[59:08] is Wondrous Depths Island,

[59:10] Black Stone City.

[59:11] Hasn't it been destroyed by beastly tides?

[59:21] Senior,

[59:22] Black Stone City has been a demonic beast's lair since it fell.

[59:25] Please be careful.

[59:26] Rest assured,

[59:27] I'll cut my coat according to my cloth.

[59:30] It's a bit far away from where Yun Tianxiao is,

[59:34] but

[59:35] it's not completely safe.

[59:37] You'd keep the formation firm,

[59:38] don't let down your guard.

[59:40] To cultivate here for 20 or 30 years,

[59:42] you may have Core Formation

[59:44] as your Spiritual Root is not bad.

[59:45] Don't stop your cultivation.

[59:50] And remember,

[59:51] don't talk to anyone about me.

[59:58] Don't talk to anyone...

[01:00:12] Senior.

[01:00:39] Senior,

[01:00:41] I feel a sense of kinship with you,

[01:00:45] like my Miss and my father.

[01:00:51] I'm so lucky,

[01:00:54] so many people took care of me,

[01:00:56] because of you,

[01:00:58] I realize, even in such a cruel world,

[01:01:01] there is hope

[01:01:03] and a reason to live on.

[01:01:05] I also want to be someone like you,

[01:01:08] offer a helping hand

[01:01:11] to those in need, if I can do it.

[01:01:17] I hope

[01:01:19] to see you all again one day.

[01:01:22] Sorry, Senior,

[01:01:24] I ramble on too much.

[01:01:53] (One Month Later)

[01:02:22] Unexpectedly, Black Stone City has fallen into this.

[01:02:32] (Inch Gold Pavilion)

[01:02:45] Windbreaker Beast cub.

[01:02:48] This is

[01:02:50] Inch Gold Pavilion?

[01:03:10] There're High-level demonic beasts are on guard.

[01:03:12] I can't pass through it.

[01:03:14] It seems that I can only take chances.

[01:03:49] The new king will ascend to the throne, that's quite impressive.

[01:03:51] My grandpa told me that the former king Thunder Roc was powerful.

[01:03:55] Hey, new guy,

[01:03:56] pick a bone here,

[01:03:58] is the new king

[01:04:00] or the former king stronger?

[01:04:07] I'm asking you, why do you chirp like a bird?

[01:04:08] It's okay,

[01:04:10] Master goes back, let's follow up.

[01:04:13] Do not do it again,

[01:04:15] so impolite.

[01:04:17] I bluff it out,

[01:04:19] so they don't have cognitive capacity.

[01:05:00] There is totally another world.

[01:05:06] No scent of high-level demonic beasts,

[01:05:08] so lucky.

[01:05:09] I'd get Demon Echo Grass,

[01:05:11] and leave here quickly.

[01:05:47] It's good I'm left out.

[01:06:07] What Siyue said is right,

[01:06:10] this is the Windbreaker Beast's lair.

[01:06:17] and Demon Echo Grass.

[01:06:19] After decades,

[01:06:20] I've finally found it.

[01:06:33] The pond water is crystal clear

[01:06:35] but bottomless.

[01:06:37] The spiritual aura around

[01:06:38] is stronger than the ordinary spiritual spring.

[01:06:41] No wonder the eighth-rank demonic beasts

[01:06:42] chose to make their lair here.

[01:06:48] Relax,

[01:06:50] good.

[01:06:51] I'm here to get something,

[01:06:52] then I'll leave immediately.

[01:06:54] So...

[01:07:11] It's beautiful, right? I plant this grass.

[01:07:36] At this age,

[01:07:37] why did you bully a child?

[01:08:03] Why are you visiting other's home

[01:08:05] without saying hello?

[01:08:21] We meet here again,

[01:08:22] it must be fate.

[01:08:32] (Episode 128 Upheaval in Outer Sea Season 1)

[01:08:39] Senior,

[01:08:40] so you've found me so early?

[01:08:44] Your Transformation Technique

[01:08:46] is interesting.

[01:08:48] If I hadn't been at the higher stage these years,

[01:08:51] I'm afraid

[01:08:53] it's not easy to recognize.

[01:08:56] Looks like

[01:08:57] it can't be settled amicably.

[01:08:59] Eighth-rank demonic beast,

[01:09:00] if we really have a fight,

[01:09:02] I have no other choice but to threaten and use Celestial Ice Flames.

[01:09:23] This sword is so remarkable.

[01:09:28] So

[01:09:29] this is your Natal Magic Treasure.

[01:09:32] You refined it so well.

[01:09:37] I can see you're cautious.

[01:09:39] But,

[01:09:40] you're clear,

[01:09:41] none of this

[01:09:43] will work on me.

[01:09:46] Put the sword away.

[01:09:49] Just as

[01:09:50] a favor for me.,

[01:09:51] if you still think I'm your drinking companion.

[01:10:01] I didn't back the wrong horse,

[01:10:03] I like to talk with smart people.

[01:10:07] Let me formally introduce myself,

[01:10:09] you can call me Feng Xi,

[01:10:11] could you

[01:10:12] tell me your name?

[01:10:17] I am

[01:10:19] Li Feiyu...

[01:10:21] I guess you must have a lot of questions.

[01:10:24] No rush,

[01:10:25] follow me now.

[01:10:27] He doesn't kill me,

[01:10:29] what's his game?

[01:10:32] Senior,

[01:10:34] where are we going?

[01:10:35] I'll show you

[01:10:37] the present Black Stone City.

[01:10:45] How about

[01:10:46] exchanging this sword for Neon Herb?

[01:10:49] Your sword is too small, can't even be used as a toothpick.

[01:10:51] You silly turtle, want a fight?

[01:10:58] Human,

[01:11:00] where is your chain?

[01:11:04] Be polite.

[01:11:10] Humans and demons have been at odds for thousands of years,

[01:11:13] it's natural that it has strong emotions.

[01:11:16] I hope you can understand that.

[01:11:20] The Wondrous Depths Sea

[01:11:22] has various kinds of demon tribes.

[01:11:24] Only we feathered race

[01:11:25] hadn't sustainable growth,

[01:11:27] and hadn't found anywhere to stay for hundreds of years.

[01:11:53] So,

[01:11:54] Senior Feng,

[01:11:55] you took over Black Stone City as a foundation.

[01:11:58] This place is full of spiritual aura

[01:11:59] and is a transportation hub.

[01:12:01] All forces have been putting in efforts here for years,

[01:12:03] so it's no surprise that this is a place of prosperity.

[01:12:06] You're a good analyst.

[01:12:08] I didn't back the wrong horse.

[01:12:10] Follow me.

[01:12:28] So many years,

[01:12:29] I have been experiencing in the Inner Sea of Stars,

[01:12:32] it's hard to imagine

[01:12:33] that you weak humans

[01:12:35] with just some cultivation and external materials,

[01:12:38] can fight with our demon clans, who are gifted in nature,

[01:12:40] for over ten thousand years,

[01:12:42] and gain the upper hand a little.

[01:12:48] Well,

[01:12:50] what do you have

[01:12:52] while we don't?

[01:13:02] Sorry, I can't figure it out,

[01:13:03] please do give me guidance.

[01:13:07] All beings have aptitude,

[01:13:09] born in this world,

[01:13:11] demons and humans follow different paths of cultivation,

[01:13:15] yet this is not a life-and-death struggle.

[01:14:19] Fellows of the feathered race,

[01:14:24] we're born

[01:14:26] to be closest to the sky,

[01:14:30] and we're not restrained by the earth

[01:14:32] and the sea.

[01:14:34] We live in the wind,

[01:14:37] we

[01:14:39] are the masters of the sky.

[01:14:45] In the past,

[01:14:47] we're scattered,

[01:14:50] and we migrated with the wind,

[01:14:53] and wandered from place to place.

[01:14:55] But

[01:14:57] we've got our own home,

[01:15:00] like the Bottomless Depths of the sea race,

[01:15:03] the Rolling Mountains of the demon race,

[01:15:06] the Boundless Dragon Palace of the flood dragon race,

[01:15:11] we,

[01:15:13] have our kingdom!

[01:15:54] We've been unknown

[01:15:57] in the Sea of Chaotic Stars for ages.

[01:16:00] We need to reclaim what is ours,

[01:16:04] may wind and thunder

[01:16:06] lead the way,

[01:16:08] until our essence and blood drain.

[01:16:13] We will take all,

[01:16:16] take everything

[01:16:19] and sacrifice to my greatest feathered race.

[01:16:51] What a coincidence,

[01:16:52] today is the ceremony of unveiling the altar.

[01:16:55] From now on,

[01:16:56] this place will officially reconnect with the outside world.

[01:16:59] At that time,

[01:17:00] whether they are demonic beings or human cultivators,

[01:17:02] as long as they are willing to accept the protection of our Feather Race,

[01:17:06] they can become a part of this land.

[01:17:10] And,

[01:17:12] so do you.

[01:17:22] I guess what you want

[01:17:24] is more than that, right?

[01:17:31] Except for the feathered race's revitalization,

[01:17:34] and

[01:17:35] you want to be the king of the demon race.

[01:17:43] If you were the king of the demon race one day,

[01:17:46] what would happen to the Sea of Chaotic Stars?

[01:17:49] And what about

[01:17:51] the humans in Sea of Chaotic Stars?

[01:17:56] The place I'm taking you to

[01:17:58] might hold the answer.

[01:18:01] Human cultivators and the sea race have conflicts,

[01:18:04] they killed Suan Ni Beast's master, who had loads of potential.

[01:18:07] Those old men were supposed

[01:18:09] to kill them all,

[01:18:12] but I couldn't stand by and do nothing,

[01:18:14] so I tried to make peace.

[01:18:15] In the end,

[01:18:17] the human race here won't be killed.

[01:18:20] Now they live here,

[01:18:21] refine artifacts,

[01:18:22] make elixirs,

[01:18:23] engage in trade,

[01:18:24] they're all masters of their crafts.

[01:18:26] They won't worry that they'll be killed by the sea race.

[01:18:29] - My own power - Here,

[01:18:31] - is so limited. - take it.

[01:18:33] This is my sincerity,

[01:18:35] and it is also my vision.

[01:18:36] I hope

[01:18:38] to create a world where all races can coexist one day.

[01:18:41] Unfortunately,

[01:18:42] whether it be the major demon races,

[01:18:44] or those human cultivators in power,

[01:18:46] few can understand these.

[01:18:49] Actually,

[01:18:50] it's not that no one understands,

[01:18:52] but the Human and Demon races do not share a common foe.

[01:18:54] Whether it's for a race

[01:18:56] or everything in the world,

[01:18:58] struggle

[01:18:59] is the best catalyst for change.

[01:19:01] Before humans came to Sea of Chaotic Stars,

[01:19:04] I guess

[01:19:06] there is a non-stop struggle in demon race.

[01:19:11] Indeed.

[01:19:17] If the place you mentioned

[01:19:19] is truly established,

[01:19:20] I

[01:19:21] will surely go and see it.

[01:19:25] That's it.

[01:19:27] The first time we met,

[01:19:29] I sensed that you were extraordinary

[01:19:31] and now I like you even more.

[01:19:35] How about it?

[01:19:36] Are you willing

[01:19:37] to lend me a hand?

[01:19:38] Let's change the Sea of Chaotic Stars.

[01:19:46] This demon acts

[01:19:47] more normal than a lot of humans I've met.

[01:19:50] But can I trust what he said?

[01:19:53] I'm flattered.

[01:19:55] But I'm so incapable,

[01:19:58] and I don't know what to do.

[01:20:03] What are you saying?

[01:20:05] In the way of cultivation,

[01:20:07] there is more than fighting and killing.

[01:20:11] Follow me.

[01:20:14] You said there is more than fighting and killing.

[01:20:16] If I could beat you,

[01:20:17] I would have run away long ago.

[01:20:22] Well,

[01:20:23] I've never invited a human into my cave before.

[01:20:30] Cave?

[01:20:33] Under the water?

[01:20:58] This way.

[01:21:04] The layout here

[01:21:05] is designed as the way in the Inner Sea.

[01:21:07] So,

[01:21:08] you might find it more familiar.

[01:21:24] Don't worry,

[01:21:24] this kid's not hostile to humans,

[01:21:26] and he is very curious.

[01:21:28] But he's grown up here,

[01:21:30] has never had the chance to meet a human.

[01:21:32] That's why I invited you here.

[01:21:35] Didn't expect you to pull out his favorite spiritual herb

[01:21:37] before we met here.

[01:21:55] We get to know each other after we've had a few drinks,

[01:21:57] I promised you last time

[01:21:58] that if we meet again,

[01:22:00] I'll let you try the wine I brewed myself.

[01:22:03] This is the treasured wine

[01:22:05] of our Windbreaker Beast race,

[01:22:14] and it takes a hundred years to brew.

[01:22:21] Rest assured,

[01:22:23] the main material

[01:22:24] is not the unity of sky, earth and human,

[01:22:27] but a demonic core at the Shapeshifting stage.

[01:22:29] A demonic core at Shapeshifting stage!

[01:22:33] You've got to be at a bottleneck stage

[01:22:34] in your cultivation.

[01:22:36] You took Demon Echo Grass to pass it, didn't you?

[01:22:41] Drinking this cup of wine,

[01:22:43] might just help you pass

[01:22:44] that bottleneck stage

[01:22:46] and get to the final stage of Core Formation.

[01:22:48] If it works,

[01:22:50] this cup of wine

[01:22:52] is better than a bunch of elixirs and drugs.

[01:22:55] What?

[01:22:56] Are you afraid that I'll do something to the wine?

[01:23:00] If I do want to kill you,

[01:23:03] why should I use such a devious trick as poisoning the wine?

[01:23:06] I dare not.

[01:23:08] But humans always say,

[01:23:10] no gain without pain.

[01:23:11] So treasured wine,

[01:23:14] I dare not drink it without offering anything.

[01:23:18] Sit down.

[01:23:19] Fellow Li, take a seat.

[01:23:21] According to your human rules,

[01:23:23] empty your cup,

[01:23:24] as a toast to our friendship.

[01:23:27] This cup of wine,

[01:23:28] do you insist on

[01:23:30] talking about the deal before drinking it?

[01:23:33] I'm afraid he'll be angry,

[01:23:34] if I refuse again.

[01:23:37] Thank you so much for your generosity.

[01:23:39] I

[01:23:40] am truly honored,

[01:23:41] and I humbly accept.

[01:24:13] (Episode 129 Upheaval in Outer Sea Season 1)

[01:24:19] Just as you said,

[01:24:21] the wine

[01:24:22] is indeed good.

[01:24:25] Just stop forcing yourself.

[01:24:27] Withdraw to cultivate the vital qi through Closed Door Training.

[01:24:29] Harness this momentum to shatter the cultivation barrier at a single stroke.

[01:24:32] I couldn't agree more.

[01:24:33] But

[01:24:34] if you want me to do it for you, I'm afraid I'll fail you.

[01:24:38] Well,

[01:24:40] it's quite simple,

[01:24:42] I just need

[01:24:42] you to do one thing

[01:24:45] with your wood attribute techniques.

[01:24:47] Yeah,

[01:24:48] your magical power is stronger than

[01:24:50] that of someone at the same stage.

[01:24:52] But your current cultivation level...

[01:24:55] (Human)

[01:25:01] is not strong enough.

[01:25:03] You can help a little,

[01:25:06] if you can improve further.

[01:25:08] I drank your wine,

[01:25:10] but my aptitude is not good,

[01:25:12] what if, despite all efforts, I still can't break through the barrier?

[01:25:15] What then?

[01:25:17] Fellow Li, don't worry,

[01:25:19] I've prepared a quiet place for cultivation.

[01:25:22] Let's give it half a year.

[01:25:23] With your talent and ability,

[01:25:25] it should not be difficult.

[01:25:27] If you fail to do it,

[01:25:29] then it's my misjudgment,

[01:25:31] don't worry about it.

[01:25:50] I tried countless times, but got the same result.

[01:25:53] How many restrictions are there?

[01:25:55] Even Using my spiritual sense outside doesn't work.

[01:25:57] He said it's a quiet place for cultivation,

[01:25:59] but I think it's a prison.

[01:26:09] Oh, I've got two books,

[01:26:11] this is

[01:26:12] about techniques, I got it before,

[01:26:14] it's good to save up wood attribute spiritual aura.

[01:26:16] This is Social Talk of the demon race,

[01:26:19] you'll need it when you live here.

[01:26:24] I've prepared all the things for your daily life.

[01:26:27] The restrictions are set there,

[01:26:29] so that no one can disturb your silence cultivation.

[01:26:31] The restrictions will be removed,

[01:26:33] once you succeed.

[01:26:37] Why are

[01:26:40] you dressed like a thief?

[01:26:50] He is very considerate,

[01:26:52] so he wants me to live here for a long time.

[01:26:55] But he is

[01:26:57] too considerate.

[01:26:58] These days, he keeps sending guards to bring these,

[01:27:01] as if he's afraid I won't be able to level up.

[01:27:03] So he is so anxious.

[01:27:13] I was ordered.

[01:27:14] Cultivation Vessel.

[01:27:15] Give them to you.

[01:27:16] Try to break through it.

[01:27:17] Thank

[01:27:18] you, fellow.

[01:27:19] Don't bother.

[01:27:25] It's her.

[01:27:27] Gongsun Xing.

[01:27:28] Why is she here?

[01:27:36] Only she is okay.

[01:27:38] Only one.

[01:27:40] Human race.

[01:27:44] Feathered race.

[01:27:45] Strong body.

[01:27:53] Senior.

[01:27:59] I'm Gongsun Xing,

[01:28:01] I'll serve you from now on, Senior.

[01:28:03] This is

[01:28:05] a crucial moment in my Closed Door Training,

[01:28:08] I'd like to purify my heart.

[01:28:10] Come back in a week.

[01:28:16] Yes.

[01:28:17] His supervision is so strict.

[01:28:19] It would be great

[01:28:21] if I could get some outside information from her.

[01:28:24] So,

[01:28:25] If I can't level up

[01:28:26] in half a year,

[01:28:28] Feng Xi will see me as useless garbage and throw me away.

[01:28:31] For now,

[01:28:32] I can only look for a way out

[01:28:33] while I break through.

[01:28:35] Don't know

[01:28:37] what that bird person wants.

[01:28:42] I've waited for so many years,

[01:28:45] finally, everything is ready.

[01:28:52] Senior Thunder Roc,

[01:28:56] who can stop me

[01:28:59] when I'm with Wind and Thunder Feathers?

[01:29:14] The Jadefire Wine is so strange,

[01:29:16] luckily, I have Ten Thousand Year Spirit Milk,

[01:29:18] so I can speed it up

[01:29:20] by using my magical power.

[01:29:22] Even so,

[01:29:23] only two-thirds of it is refined.

[01:29:46] No,

[01:29:47] Celestial Ice Bead,

[01:29:49] why is it activated?

[01:29:51] It can't be the Jadefire Wine...

[01:30:01] But my magical power is almost gone,

[01:30:03] I can't handle it at all.

[01:30:48] I almost ended up like Xuan Gu,

[01:30:51] got burned after playing with fire.

[01:30:53] Luckily, there was no major catastrophe.

[01:30:59] This is...

[01:31:02] I had no more improvements after ten years of Closed Door Training.

[01:31:04] Now,

[01:31:06] I broke through it in the life-and-death struggle.

[01:31:10] With my magical power now,

[01:31:12] I can control 24 Green Bamboo Bee Cloud Swords at the same time.

[01:31:15] That's good.

[01:31:16] Then,

[01:31:17] I've fulfilled Feng Xi's requirements.

[01:31:19] But,

[01:31:20] there are still two months left,

[01:31:22] no need to tell him so quickly.

[01:31:26] If you fail to do it,

[01:31:28] then it's my misjudgment,

[01:31:30] don't worry about it.

[01:31:33] I'd better stabilize my level

[01:31:34] and figure out how to get out of here.

[01:31:37] This demon is extremely crafty,

[01:31:39] I can't completely trust what he promises.

[01:31:59] I've made some breakthroughs lately,

[01:32:00] the guard won't notice

[01:32:02] the Sound-sealing formation I've set up.

[01:32:04] Didn't I

[01:32:05] tell you to cultivate in the cave?

[01:32:07] Why are you here?

[01:32:09] When you left that day,

[01:32:12] I was worried about my father,

[01:32:14] so I left the cave and went to meet my sect fellows.

[01:32:17] When I met them,

[01:32:18] demon race attacked us.

[01:32:20] We couldn't fight them,

[01:32:22] and were captured here.

[01:32:23] How does the demon race treat you here?

[01:32:26] At first, it was all right.

[01:32:28] These demonic beasts who call themselves the feathered race,

[01:32:30] are ferocious.

[01:32:31] But as long as we refine weapons and make elixirs for them,

[01:32:33] and deliver them punctually,

[01:32:35] we could just about scrape by.

[01:32:37] But a few days ago,

[01:32:39] a Shapeshifting Poisonous Flood Dragon appeared,

[01:32:41] a few people were taken away every day

[01:32:43] and never came back.

[01:32:46] I think

[01:32:47] they might be behind the eight ball.

[01:32:49] Now everyone is in a panic.

[01:32:52] Maybe we

[01:32:53] will

[01:32:53] be the next ones.

[01:32:55] That will be your destiny

[01:32:58] as you place yourself at the mercy of others.

[01:32:59] How many human cultivators are left in this city?

[01:33:02] Are there high-level ones?

[01:33:13] Senior.

[01:33:18] Save it.

[01:33:20] I know what you want to say.

[01:33:22] I felt it's so hard

[01:33:23] to be a Core Formation cultivator.

[01:33:27] But after going through a lot,

[01:33:28] I figured out

[01:33:30] that Core Formation

[01:33:32] means nothing to those shapeshifting demonic beasts

[01:33:35] and Nascent Soul cultivators.

[01:33:39] Right now,

[01:33:40] the spirit is willing,

[01:33:42] but the flesh is weak.

[01:33:45] Do you understand?

[01:33:53] You've got to survive

[01:33:55] to have a chance.

[01:33:57] I

[01:33:59] understand.

[01:34:02] Thank you, Senior.

[01:34:07] This is my sincerity,

[01:34:09] and it is also my vision.

[01:34:12] And,

[01:34:13] so do you.

[01:34:14] Coexist.

[01:34:16] I'm afraid it's more like exploitation

[01:34:17] and servitude.

[01:34:19] Low-level cultivators are given to others as Cultivation Vessels.

[01:34:21] And he allows Poisonous Flood Dragon to eat humans.

[01:34:22] Even if he does make some reforms,

[01:34:24] nature won't change,

[01:34:26] the law of the jungle has been around for thousands of years, it'll stay that way.

[01:34:46] It's good.

[01:34:48] The Jadefire Wine wasn't wasted.

[01:34:56] These days,

[01:34:57] I've been worried about you lately, Fellow Li,

[01:34:59] it appears that I was overthinking,

[01:35:01] you've done a great job.

[01:35:04] But as compensation,

[01:35:07] I'd like to give you something.

[01:35:15] Lately,

[01:35:16] we've found some human cultivators recently,

[01:35:18] and there are quite a lot of them.

[01:35:20] For a long-term policy,

[01:35:22] I need a human leader who can convince them,

[01:35:27] and I want to entrust this important task to you.

[01:35:34] By then,

[01:35:35] you'll have total power over all the human cultivators.

[01:35:39] In my territory,

[01:35:41] all the human beings who follow the law

[01:35:44] can live and work here happily.

[01:35:49] The only condition is that,

[01:35:55] every ten years, some cultivators

[01:35:58] and young demon-race members will be chosen

[01:36:00] to fight for survival,

[01:36:02] just as what we saw on Prime Star Island.

[01:36:05] That's what I can use to

[01:36:07] I can convince other demon races.

[01:36:10] If it's for the life extension of a race,

[01:36:13] I guess other human cultivators in power

[01:36:15] would make the same choice if they were you.

[01:36:18] But,

[01:36:20] I have a question,

[01:36:23] what about high-level

[01:36:25] human cultivators?

[01:36:27] What do you think, Fellow Li?

[01:36:30] Please go ahead.

[01:36:34] You said,

[01:36:36] this is

[01:36:37] mainly for the life extension of a race.

[01:36:41] Gathering Nascent Soul cultivators

[01:36:43] is gonna cost too much,

[01:36:45] and the situation might get out of control.

[01:36:49] What I want

[01:36:50] is a mighty empire that reigns over

[01:36:52] the Sea of Chaotic Stars, like the ancient demon palace.

[01:36:56] A large number of sects

[01:36:58] who only mind their own business

[01:37:00] will be forbidden here.

[01:37:09] Of course,

[01:37:10] if you want to go further,

[01:37:13] we can have another discussion about it...

[01:37:15] If you do not fail me,

[01:37:17] neither will I

[01:37:20] fail you.

[01:37:28] Senior Feng, you've got big plans for the world,

[01:37:30] and entrusted me with this huge task,

[01:37:32] I do appreciate it.

[01:37:36] But,

[01:37:38] it's of great importance and concern,

[01:37:39] we'd better think it over.

[01:37:42] How about we discuss it

[01:37:44] after I help you finish this?

[01:37:46] If it hadn't been for unusual action as I swallowed the Celestial Ice Bead,

[01:37:50] I felt the evil aura in the Jadefire Wine,

[01:37:52] I might've been tricked by him.

[01:37:55] I won't trust a single word he says.

[01:37:59] I have to find a way out of here.

[01:38:02] Here it comes.

[01:38:38] Mr. Feng,

[01:38:39] why is there a human stench of decay in your cave?

[01:38:49] This is the Poisonous Flood Dragon

[01:38:51] that Gongsun Xing talked about.

[01:39:01] Mr. Feng, you're so generous.

[01:39:04] Today's lunch

[01:39:05] is a Core Formation cultivator.

[01:39:15] What are you doing?

[01:39:18] Mr. Wu, wait.

[01:39:20] I ask Fellow Li to help me here,

[01:39:23] please do not harm him.

[01:39:25] Help you?

[01:39:28] This is a human.

[01:39:31] Do you know what are you saying?

[01:39:33] Okay, calm down.

[01:39:35] That's what Mr. Feng will do,

[01:39:37] you're supposed to know it.

[01:39:40] Since we're here,

[01:39:41] just enjoy ourselves.

[01:40:03] Human,

[01:40:05] have you ever met us before?

[01:40:10] No,

[01:40:11] I am inexperienced.

[01:40:14] It's my first time seeing

[01:40:15] powerful Flood Dragons,

[01:40:17] sorry for being impolite.

[01:40:19] I think I've seen you before too.

[01:40:30] (Episode 130 Upheaval in Outer Sea Season 1)

[01:40:34] I think I've seen you before too.

[01:40:44] Even so,

[01:40:45] you humans all look the same to me,

[01:40:49] I can't tell you apart.

[01:40:50] Alright, alright.

[01:40:52] Fellow Li,

[01:40:54] let me introduce them to you,

[01:40:56] they are my close friends,

[01:40:58] both at the Initial Shapeshifting Stage.

[01:41:00] You humans would call them eighth-rank demonic cultivators.

[01:41:04] However,

[01:41:05] they're from the Spirit Race,

[01:41:07] and their own innate abilities will not be much weaker than mine.

[01:41:10] What do you mean by 'not much weaker than you'?

[01:41:12] Two hundred years ago, we agreed to have a sparring match,

[01:41:15] but it kept being delayed.

[01:41:16] How about we do it today?

[01:41:17] Don't worry,

[01:41:19] we have plenty of time for that.

[01:41:24] I invited you here

[01:41:25] because I need all of you

[01:41:27] to lend me a hand this time.

[01:41:29] Once it's done,

[01:41:30] what I promised

[01:41:33] will be all yours.

[01:41:34] Why do you make a mystery of it?

[01:41:37] And you call a mere Core Formation cultivator here to help.

[01:41:40] If you want to deal with some enemy,

[01:41:41] Gui and I can handle it for you.

[01:41:43] Yeah.

[01:41:43] Is there some danger involved in this matter?

[01:41:46] Not any danger.

[01:41:48] I just want you to help me refine a Magic Treasure.

[01:41:52] Follow me.

[01:41:54] Mr. Feng, didn't expect you to refine external tools as humans do?

[01:41:57] For our demons,

[01:41:59] isn't our body the ultimate Magic Treasure?

[01:42:02] Our innate ability

[01:42:04] is far more reliable than any Magic Treasures.

[01:42:06] Spiritual Flood Dragon's body.

[01:42:07] Spiritual Bird's power.

[01:42:10] Dark Tortoise's body.

[01:42:11] We're cream of the crop

[01:42:13] in demons.

[01:42:15] You two are absolutely right.

[01:42:17] How

[01:42:18] could I not know?

[01:42:21] What would it be...

[01:42:42] This is...

[01:42:45] Thunder Roc.

[01:42:47] Thunder Roc's Evasion speed

[01:42:48] might be among the top three in our demons.

[01:42:51] But,

[01:42:52] wasn't it sealed by the former master of Star Palace?

[01:42:56] Mr. Gui, as you said,

[01:42:58] but Senior Thunder Roc escaped.

[01:43:00] I heard about it,

[01:43:02] went to meet him,

[01:43:03] and tried to stop human killing,

[01:43:07] but it's too late.

[01:43:10] When I was there,

[01:43:12] Senior Thunder Roc was dying,

[01:43:14] and said his remains would be mine after he passed away.

[01:43:17] As I expected, he was part of

[01:43:19] the incident on the Prime Star Island,

[01:43:22] maybe he led the forces of Absolute Darkness Island there.

[01:43:24] All he wanted is the Thunder Roc's remains.

[01:43:27] As for the truth...

[01:43:29] Forget it then.

[01:43:31] History is always written by the victors.

[01:43:33] Mr. Feng,

[01:43:36] are you really gonna refine Thunder Roc's remains?

[01:43:40] I want to refine a pair of Feathered Magic Treasures,

[01:43:44] named

[01:43:45] Wind and Thunder Feathers.

[01:43:47] This Magic Treasure is with the power of wind and thunder,

[01:43:49] as swift as the wind,

[01:43:52] and I can use it as I please.

[01:43:55] Thunder,

[01:43:57] and thunder...

[01:43:59] It hasn't been a hundred years since you survived in Thunder Test for Shapeshifting.

[01:44:02] You wouldn't be into thunder techniques, of course.

[01:44:03] But don't worry,

[01:44:04] when it's done,

[01:44:06] you can improve by eating some human cultivators.

[01:44:13] Mr. Feng,

[01:44:14] let's make a deal,

[01:44:16] at least, five Core Formation

[01:44:17] and twenty Foundation Establishment cultivators.

[01:44:18] Don't forget that.

[01:44:21] We'll start after three days.

[01:44:24] I hope you fellows can help me.

[01:44:31] Fellow Li, wait a moment.

[01:44:33] Go.

[01:44:51] Fellow Li, wait a moment.

[01:44:53] I just remembered

[01:44:55] that there might be...

[01:44:59] a little evil aura

[01:45:03] remaining in the demonic core of Thunder Roc.

[01:45:08] Once you help me to finish refining this treasure,

[01:45:10] I'll personally help you

[01:45:12] to refine it.

[01:45:14] At that time,

[01:45:15] you'll improve even more.

[01:45:18] Thanks for your guidance, Senior.

[01:45:19] I'll do my best.

[01:45:29] Evil aura?

[01:45:30] Refine?

[01:45:31] I see,

[01:45:33] what a pity,

[01:45:34] I've solved it.

[01:45:36] No need to bother you.

[01:45:38] But the Wind and Thunder Feathers,

[01:45:40] once Feng Xi refines this Magic Treasure,

[01:45:43] I bet his evasion speed will be off the charts.

[01:45:46] If he wants to kill me,

[01:45:48] there might be no place

[01:45:49] for me to hide in the Inner and Outer Sea of Chaotic Stars.

[01:45:52] (Three Days Later)

[01:46:15] A surprising number.

[01:46:17] Could it be that spiritual power of the entire island is here?

[01:46:36] Just like a giant tool refiner furnace.

[01:46:46] Two fellows, your support, please.

[01:47:52] The formation helps,

[01:47:54] but it needs to balance four forces simultaneously.

[01:47:57] So Feng Xi has studied hard in tool refining.

[01:48:02] This is...

[01:48:03] wood attribute spiritual power.

[01:48:05] It's mine?

[01:48:21] I see.

[01:48:23] It can also extract spiritual power.

[01:48:26] These old demons.

[01:48:28] In their eyes, I'm just a huge Spiritual Stone?

[01:48:32] They'll refine me as materials, I guess.

[01:48:35] No way.

[01:48:36] I have to find a way to escape as soon as possible.

[01:48:53] Two fellows,

[01:48:55] the time has come.

[01:50:27] The first phase

[01:50:29] is almost done.

[01:50:30] Next,

[01:50:31] we need to merge wind and thunder.

[01:50:34] Fellow Li's wood attribute is key

[01:50:37] to mediating between them.

[01:50:40] Senior Feng,

[01:50:42] I am

[01:50:43] an incapable cultivator,

[01:50:44] I'm worried it might mess up your important stuff,

[01:50:46] why not

[01:50:47] let the formation

[01:50:49] mediate itself?

[01:50:53] Well,

[01:50:55] stop it.

[01:51:01] To save some hassle,

[01:51:02] I did use your spiritual power by this formation.

[01:51:06] But as time goes on,

[01:51:08] it'll need more refined spiritual power.

[01:51:12] I can't expect anyone else to do it for me.

[01:51:15] Now that

[01:51:16] the formation restriction has been removed,

[01:51:18] just follow my instructions.

[01:51:22] That's what I'm hoping for.

[01:51:24] This person talked so much,

[01:51:26] why don't we drain his spiritual energy?

[01:51:42] Junior,

[01:51:43] have some rest.

[01:51:44] Martial Uncle and I are here.

[01:51:46] I'm fine.

[01:51:47] Senior, don't worry.

[01:51:48] I...

[01:51:50] Dad.

[01:51:52] I'm fine.

[01:51:54] You all should have a rest.

[01:51:55] Senior.

[01:51:56] In your current condition,

[01:51:58] the longer you stay here,

[01:51:59] the worse you will get.

[01:52:00] In a couple of days,

[01:52:01] we're going to sound out,

[01:52:03] and try to bribe the human guard in charge.

[01:52:06] Find a way

[01:52:07] to sneak out of this mining area.

[01:52:08] No,

[01:52:09] absolutely not.

[01:52:11] Not to mention how many demon guards are out there,

[01:52:13] and even if we manage to escape,

[01:52:15] the rest of the people will face their wrath because of us.

[01:52:17] How many people will be alive in the end?

[01:52:32] Dad,

[01:52:33] they'll probably take action.

[01:52:35] Everyone has their own path, no one can stop it.

[01:52:37] I hope they can make it,

[01:52:39] more people can survive then.

[01:52:41] I think

[01:52:42] that Senior Li

[01:52:43] is planning something.

[01:52:48] He also said,

[01:52:49] we'd try to be alive,

[01:52:51] then we still have hope.

[01:52:52] That senior is utterly unpredictable,

[01:52:54] we'd make some preparations as he said,

[01:52:57] and don't let the news leak out.

[01:53:00] Dad,

[01:53:01] focus on your fitness,

[01:53:02] I've secretly

[01:53:04] contacted a bunch of people recently,

[01:53:05] and got some Talismans and Magic Tools ready.

[01:53:07] If there is a favorable turn,

[01:53:09] we'll give it our all then.

[01:53:28] Look.

[01:53:30] Hurry up, go.

[01:53:31] Go, quickly.

[01:53:32] Run now.

[01:53:37] Run for your lives.

[01:54:42] Fellow Li,

[01:54:44] thanks for the help.

[01:54:46] Fellow Li,

[01:54:47] can you still go on?

[01:54:51] Senior, don't worry,

[01:54:52] my cultivation method is different,

[01:54:54] I've got some advantages

[01:54:56] for the consumption and recovery

[01:54:58] of spiritual power.

[01:54:59] I see.

[01:55:03] I

[01:55:04] wasn't wrong about you.

[01:55:15] Senior Feng,

[01:55:16] why did you do this?

[01:55:17] The Wind Spirit Energy

[01:55:18] won't affect your cultivation.

[01:55:21] I'll get rid of it once we've finished the task.

[01:55:24] I suggest you don't take reckless action,

[01:55:27] or you'll suffer unbearable pain,

[01:55:29] and I also don't want to see that.

[01:55:32] I've been

[01:55:33] completely honest with you,

[01:55:35] and even want to help you achieve your goals.

[01:55:38] I never expected you to view me in this way.

[01:55:42] As long as you work well with me,

[01:55:44] I'll definitely

[01:55:46] keep my promises.

[01:55:48] Put the shoe on the right foot,

[01:55:50] this is the way

[01:55:52] you humans prefer to use,

[01:55:53] right?

[01:55:58] Mr, Feng, you're so generous.

[01:56:01] Didn't expect to get such a good thing.

[01:56:03] Ten...

[01:56:04] Ten Thousand Year Spiritual Liquid.

[01:56:07] I only

[01:56:08] managed to get three drops.

[01:56:10] This time, don't say I'm stingy.

[01:56:13] You two can keep it now.

[01:56:14] When your spiritual energy is exhausted,

[01:56:16] take it then.

[01:56:29] Ten Thousand Year Spiritual Liquid.

[01:56:35] (Episode 131 Upheaval in Outer Sea Season 1)

[01:56:39] (Watch with Headphones for Better Viewing Experience)

[01:58:03] Mr. Feng,

[01:58:04] What are you gonna do

[01:58:06] once this treasure is refined?

[01:58:08] The young master of the Suan Ni Beast Clan

[01:58:09] was killed by human cultivators in this area,

[01:58:12] and a piece of the Sacred Provenance Plate is missing.

[01:58:15] I

[01:58:16] want to find it.

[01:58:18] Sacred Provenance Plate

[01:58:20] is related to Sacred Provenance Plate's Techniques of ancient demon race.

[01:58:22] Mastering these techniques,

[01:58:23] lets you command all the demon race in the Sea of Stars.

[01:58:26] What a pity,

[01:58:27] the plates have been scattered,

[01:58:29] only one of them is held by the sea race.

[01:58:32] Sacred Provenance Plate.

[01:58:32] Mr. Feng, so ambitious of you.

[01:58:33] Secret Techniques of Demon Race.

[01:58:35] - Could it be... - Show us if you find it.

[01:58:46] Why isn't it over yet?

[01:58:57] What's that smell?

[01:59:05] I've noticed a little pure spiritual aura on this guy.

[01:59:08] It's of wood attribute,

[01:59:09] much purer than the scent of his technique.

[01:59:12] Human.

[01:59:13] I was wondering how you've managed to hold on so long, given your cultivation level.

[01:59:17] It seems

[01:59:20] you've got some secret treasure or elixir that restores spiritual power.

[01:59:24] Mr. Gui can sense changes in spiritual aura with his talent.

[01:59:27] What he said is true.

[01:59:30] Senior, I'm flattered,

[01:59:32] I'm just a rogue cultivator,

[01:59:33] how could I get any secret treasures or elixir?

[01:59:36] Thanks to Senior Feng,

[01:59:38] I could break through the bottleneck.

[01:59:39] Don't try to pull the wool over our eyes.

[01:59:41] What are you hiding?

[01:59:43] Hand it over now,

[01:59:44] or I'll eat you,

[01:59:46] then extract your soul, refine it.

[01:59:48] I can also find it.

[01:59:59] Fellow Li,

[02:00:00] earlier, you seemed to be running out of spiritual power,

[02:00:03] but in a twinkling of an eye,

[02:00:04] you've recovered quite a bit.

[02:00:06] Mr. Wu is anxious.

[02:00:07] If you do have something that can restore spiritual power,

[02:00:10] why not show it to us?

[02:00:11] If it's useful,

[02:00:12] I'll make it up to you.

[02:00:18] Did I...

[02:00:20] Senior, I guess you were mistaken.

[02:00:42] Fellow Li,

[02:00:44] I'd suggest you

[02:00:46] take my words seriously.

[02:00:48] I don't want it to happen again.

[02:00:56] Human.

[02:00:57] Remember,

[02:00:59] you

[02:01:00] are just our

[02:01:03] slaves.

[02:01:09] Mr. Feng.

[02:01:11] What is it?

[02:01:12] Fellow Li.

[02:01:13] Tell them.

[02:01:17] It is

[02:01:18] diluted spiritual liquid made

[02:01:21] by a drop of Ten Thousand Year Spiritual Milk.

[02:01:23] What?

[02:01:23] You also have Ten...

[02:01:25] Ten Thousand Year Spiritual Liquid.

[02:01:27] A Core Formation cultivator,

[02:01:30] you're not qualified to use it.

[02:01:33] Mr. Feng.

[02:01:34] Let's share it now.

[02:01:37] Is there anything else mixed in here?

[02:01:40] It's a bit pale green

[02:01:42] and has too much wood spiritual aura.

[02:01:45] Spiritual liquid is so rare.

[02:01:48] I added

[02:01:49] some wood attribute spiritual herbs.

[02:01:51] My cultivation is of wood attribute.

[02:01:55] So the more wood attributes,

[02:01:57] the better it is.

[02:02:01] Mr. Feng,

[02:02:02] I

[02:02:03] am a bit hungry,

[02:02:04] and my magical power is almost exhausted.

[02:02:07] How about

[02:02:08] taking a bite?

[02:02:10] Mr. Gui, wait,

[02:02:11] let me check it.

[02:02:13] Why bother?

[02:02:14] I can have a try myself.

[02:02:16] You little thing,

[02:02:17] I've tasted all poisons in the world,

[02:02:20] you wanna poison in front of me,

[02:02:22] no way.

[02:02:37] It is Ten Thousand Year Spiritual Liquid.

[02:02:39] The recovery speed of spiritual power won't lie.

[02:02:43] Save some for me.

[02:03:24] Mr. Feng.

[02:03:25] I think he'll definitely be a traitor,

[02:03:28] let me just eat him,

[02:03:30] don't waste it.

[02:03:31] Mr. Wu,

[02:03:32] I still need him.

[02:03:35] I'll find another Core Formation cultivator for you.

[02:03:38] Fellow Li,

[02:03:39] I know,

[02:03:41] you must feel resentful,

[02:03:42] but when it's over,

[02:03:44] we can have a talk.

[02:03:50] How dare I

[02:03:53] feel resentful as you tell me what to do?

[02:04:00] Well,

[02:04:01] my two buddies,

[02:04:03] rest to recover magical power now.

[02:04:05] Next,

[02:04:05] get it done in one go,

[02:04:07] no stopping.

[02:04:10] Wind Spirit Energy is so overwhelming,

[02:04:12] but thankfully, I used Divine Devilbane Lightning

[02:04:14] to isolate Celestial Ice Flames,

[02:04:16] so it's a bit safer now.

[02:04:24] Mr. Feng,

[02:04:25] we've rested well.

[02:04:27] Let's finish it quickly.

[02:04:32] No rush.

[02:04:34] The final moment

[02:04:35] needs more patience.

[02:04:38] I'll make some preparations.

[02:04:39] I still need your help later, everyone.

[02:04:43] We're ready.

[02:04:49] Is it not time yet?

[02:05:03] What?

[02:05:04] What's going on?

[02:05:18] You did it?

[02:05:20] Spiritual liquid in Mysterious Green Bottle contains a spiritual aura of heaven and earth.

[02:05:23] It's of great benefit to spiritual plants,

[02:05:25] while it's a strong poison for living beings.

[02:05:30] Go to hell.

[02:05:38] You poisoned us.

[02:05:41] You wanna to get killed?

[02:05:42] Oh no!

[02:06:00] Damn it, why now...

[02:06:04] The poison's finally taken effect, I'd leave here now.

[02:06:15] What's going on with this prohibition?

[02:06:17] Even Divine Devilbane Lightning can't break it,

[02:06:21] some more effort is needed.

[02:06:44] What exactly did you poison?

[02:06:47] His aura's much weaker than before.

[02:07:10] Li Feiyu, you...

[02:07:12] How dare you!

[02:07:21] This is Protective Magic Treasure.

[02:07:38] Was it because he drank too little?

[02:07:41] It's those greedy dragon and tortoise's fault.

[02:07:44] Fellow Li,

[02:07:46] I think I've treated you fairly well,

[02:07:48] you'd better leave some leeway,

[02:07:50] or there will be no place for you

[02:07:52] in the Inner or Outer Sea of Chaotic Stars.

[02:07:54] What's the point of saying this now?

[02:07:57] I can't let it recover.

[02:08:03] This is

[02:08:04] Gold-Consuming Bug.

[02:08:16] Human,

[02:08:17] is that all you've got?

[02:08:21] Pity, my cultivation level is too low

[02:08:24] to pierce the skin of this shapeshifting demonic beast.

[02:08:30] Go!

[02:08:42] You nasty human,

[02:08:44] once I lift myself out,

[02:08:46] I'll rip and tear your bone apart,

[02:08:50] extract and refine your soul.

[02:08:52] Just you wait.

[02:08:54] What are you staring at?

[02:08:55] You'd better save those threats

[02:08:57] when you can stand up again.

[02:09:02] Stop it.

[02:09:03] If you kill him,

[02:09:04] there will be no peace

[02:09:05] between humans and demons.

[02:09:06] Don't you always like to eat humans?

[02:09:09] Today, you'd know the feeling of being eaten.

[02:09:15] Thunder,

[02:09:16] thunder,

[02:09:16] what a terrifying thunder.

[02:09:18] So much thunder.

[02:09:23] Feng Xi,

[02:09:26] you...

[02:09:28] There are

[02:09:29] so many bugs.

[02:09:31] Stop it now.

[02:09:32] I won't eat humans anymore!

[02:09:37] His blood is incredibly toxic!

[02:09:40] No time to worry about it.

[02:09:55] Feng Xi.

[02:09:56] If it weren't for helping you today,

[02:09:59] how could we end up with this?

[02:10:16] Self-defense Autotomy.

[02:10:18] That's what a reptile would do.

[02:10:20] Feng Xi,

[02:10:22] I'll get even with you later.

[02:10:25] Weeping Soul.

[02:10:26] Take it back.

[02:10:38] You nasty human,

[02:10:40] as my life essence is still here,

[02:10:42] I'll definitely kill you all one day.

[02:10:45] You wish.

[02:10:47] The life essence of a shapeshifting demonic beast

[02:10:48] is perfect for refining tools,

[02:10:50] I can't afford to waste it.

[02:10:55] (Episode 132 Upheaval in Outer Sea Season 1)

[02:10:59] (Watch with Headphones for Better Viewing Experience)

[02:11:11] You nasty human,

[02:11:13] as my life essence is still here,

[02:11:14] I'll definitely kill you all one day.

[02:11:17] You wish.

[02:11:19] The life essence of a shapeshifting demonic beast is perfect for refining tools,

[02:11:21] I can't afford to waste it.

[02:11:24] Stop it now.

[02:11:25] I won't eat humans anymore!

[02:11:28] Bugs are getting in.

[02:11:30] This turtle demon's gifted talent is a self-healing body,

[02:11:33] it's hard to kill him.

[02:11:35] As for Feng Xi,

[02:11:37] I'm not able to control Celestial Ice Flames,

[02:11:39] if I used it recklessly,

[02:11:41] we're both going to die here,

[02:11:44] it's so tricky.

[02:11:46] Li Feiyu,

[02:11:47] you can't escape.

[02:11:49] Forget it,

[02:11:50] I'd better find a way out of here now.

[02:11:52] But how do I

[02:11:54] break the prohibition here?

[02:11:56] When Feng Xi strengthened the prohibition,

[02:11:59] it seemed like he connected it to the Fire of Earth's Core,

[02:12:04] which explains why it's endless.

[02:12:06] This is the power to refine Wind and Thunder Feathers.

[02:12:09] Wait,

[02:12:10] Wind and Thunder Feathers...

[02:12:14] Li Feiyu,

[02:12:16] Wind and Thunder Feathers aren't refined yet.

[02:12:19] All our efforts will be wasted, if you take it out.

[02:12:21] The whole point of this formation

[02:12:22] is to drain all the spiritual power from earth fire into Wind and Thunder Feathers.

[02:12:26] But if I take the Wind and Thunder Feathers,

[02:12:28] the earth fire's spiritual power can not be drained,

[02:12:31] then I can modify these formations,

[02:12:34] for example,

[02:12:35] send all the power into the prohibition on the door.

[02:12:39] I've got it.

[02:12:46] Li Feiyu,

[02:12:48] you...

[02:12:49] What are you doing?

[02:13:12] Li Feiyu,

[02:13:14] you have no wind and thunder power,

[02:13:15] you can't control it.

[02:13:17] Who said that?

[02:13:18] I've got plenty of Divine Devilbane Lightning.

[02:13:41] No, no,

[02:13:42] don't do it.

[02:13:50] Look what you've done,

[02:13:52] if the earth fire erupts,

[02:13:55] this island will be ruined.

[02:14:04] Excellent!

[02:14:07] Senior Feng,

[02:14:15] goodbye.

[02:14:18] Li Feiyu, you liar,

[02:14:20] stop.

[02:14:23] You asshole,

[02:14:24] give it back to me.

[02:14:26] What a pity for this Ancient Treasure.

[02:14:29] The earth fire on this island is about to erupt.

[02:14:30] I'd leave here quickly.

[02:14:31] Li Feiyu!

[02:15:33] It's hopeless.

[02:15:47] Not far from the exit,

[02:15:49] luckily, human settlements

[02:15:51] weren't severely affected.

[02:15:53] Run, watch out.

[02:15:56] Quick, this way! Run there.

[02:15:58] Mother.

[02:16:09] Run!

[02:16:10] Follow this immortal master, run!

[02:16:13] Senior.

[02:16:17] Hurry up.

[02:16:18] Quickly.

[02:16:19] Run as far as you can.

[02:16:21] Don't look back.

[02:16:25] Li Feiyu,

[02:16:27] I'll kill you!

[02:16:52] (Inch Gold)

[02:17:13] Mr. Feng,

[02:17:15] Mr. Wu is dead.

[02:17:16] How do we explain this to Golden Dragon King?

[02:17:19] Li Feiyu.

[02:17:20] Human.

[02:17:22] Senior Thunder Roc.

[02:17:24] You're right.

[02:17:26] Demon race

[02:17:28] should act like who we are.

[02:17:30] Please don't do this, I'm scared.

[02:17:33] Demon race

[02:17:36] should act like who we are.

[02:17:41] Shapeshift

[02:17:43] into human?

[02:17:45] I was utterly wrong.

[02:17:57] Li Feiyu,

[02:18:00] I found you.

[02:18:17] I've been flying for thousands of miles,

[02:18:19] it should be safe here.

[02:18:29] Wind Spirit Energy.

[02:18:30] It's Feng Xi!

[02:18:32] It recovers.

[02:18:55] From such a distance,

[02:18:57] he can still control Wind Spirit Energy.

[02:18:59] Is it trying to find where I am?

[02:19:01] How do I escape then?

[02:19:04] Damn it.

[02:19:05] I would've taken the risk and blown up Celestial Ice Bead.

[02:19:21] There is nowhere for me

[02:19:23] to stay in the Outer Sea of Stars.

[02:19:25] No, I need to run now.

[02:19:28] Wind Spirit Energy can not be refined in a short time,

[02:19:32] I wonder if Melodious Sect's transportation formation to the Inner Sea

[02:19:34] is repaired?

[02:20:25] Finally,

[02:20:26] found you!

[02:21:02] Who dares to cause trouble here?

[02:21:10] Feathered race,

[02:21:11] you slaughtered our people in the territory of sea race,

[02:21:14] do you want to start a war?

[02:21:16] Go away!

[02:21:28] Feathered race,

[02:21:29] if you can't justify your actions,

[02:21:31] you're not going anywhere.

[02:21:40] Damn human!

[02:21:42] Damn it.

[02:21:51] Li Feiyu,

[02:21:53] what poison did you use on me?

[02:21:55] I can't push myself anymore.

[02:21:56] Once my magical power is depleted,

[02:21:58] I can't suppress the foreign matter in my body.

[02:22:00] I'd solve this major problem first.

[02:22:04] Li!

[02:22:05] Just wait.

[02:22:06] Wind and Thunder Feathers,

[02:22:08] I'll take it back!

[02:22:28] Wind Spirit Energy hasn't been activated for several days.

[02:22:31] Is it because the distance is far,

[02:22:32] or has the spell failed?

[02:22:34] This place is kinda safe now.

[02:22:37] I can stop here,

[02:22:40] and finish the urgent matters.

[02:22:45] The Storage pouches of Poisonous Flood Dragon and Turtle Demon

[02:22:47] have a bunch of rare materials,

[02:22:49] especially for the Jet-black Turtle Shell

[02:22:51] and over a hundred Crimson Scales.

[02:22:53] Those must be what they sloughed

[02:22:54] when they had Thunder Test for Shapeshifting.

[02:22:56] But the best treasure I got

[02:22:58] is this.

[02:23:01] Li Feiyu,

[02:23:03] Wind and Thunder Feathers aren't refined yet.

[02:23:05] You have no wind and thunder power,

[02:23:07] you can't control it.

[02:23:09] Wanted to trick me?

[02:23:11] Don't you only have wind power?

[02:23:13] So it means,

[02:23:14] that anyone who possesses either wind power or thunder power

[02:23:16] can use this treasure.

[02:23:18] But it's not fully refined yet,

[02:23:20] and taken shape.

[02:23:22] I'd make it view me as its master,

[02:23:23] and refine it a bit more.

[02:23:56] It's almost done,

[02:23:57] Keep going.

[02:24:13] It's done.

[02:24:17] Alright,

[02:24:18] let me try out the Wind and Thunder Feathers.

[02:24:38] Feng Xi spared no expense to refine it,

[02:24:41] I'd like to see how powerful it is.

[02:24:47] Thunder power.

[02:24:49] Maybe I can try Divine Devilbane Lightning?

[02:25:24] What was that?

[02:25:25] It was too fast, I couldn't see a thing.

[02:25:28] Let me try again.

[02:26:10] Such a long distance,

[02:26:11] it only took a single breath.

[02:26:15] The evasion speed is faster than an ordinary Nascent Soul cultivator.

[02:26:18] No wonder Fengxi treasures it so much.

[02:26:21] With this treasure,

[02:26:22] No corner of the world is beyond my reach.

[02:26:33] (Episode 133 Upheaval in Outer Sea Season 2)

[02:26:37] (Watch with Headphones for Better Viewing Experience)

[02:26:46] Such a long distance,

[02:26:48] it only took a single breath.

[02:26:51] The evasion speed is faster than an ordinary Nascent Soul cultivator.

[02:26:55] No wonder Fengxi treasures it so much.

[02:26:57] With this treasure,

[02:26:59] No corner of the world is beyond my reach.

[02:27:07] Even regular flying speed

[02:27:09] is super fast.

[02:28:04] But it uses up a bit too much of the Divine Devilbane Lightning.

[02:28:07] Unless it's necessary,

[02:28:09] I shouldn't use it continuity.

[02:28:12] I've gotten rid of Feng Xi now,

[02:28:15] staying in the Outer Sea might be not peaceful.

[02:28:18] Senior, I'm wondering what are you going to do then.

[02:28:21] The transportation formation that Madam Fan mentioned

[02:28:23] is true.

[02:28:24] Senior,

[02:28:25] you sure you don't want to head back to the Inner Sea?

[02:28:27] The matter of Void Heaven Ding has been over for so long,

[02:28:29] as long as I don't bump into those Nascent Soul evils at the Middle Stage,

[02:28:32] it probably won't be fatal.

[02:28:34] It's still better than staying here and being constantly hunted down by Feng Xi.

[02:28:50] Shouldn't Lan be in charge of these accounts?

[02:28:53] Well,

[02:28:55] hasn't she come back yet?

[02:28:56] Sect Leader,

[02:28:57] Senior Lan went out on a mission under Elder Yun's orders,

[02:29:01] and she hasn't returned yet.

[02:29:02] I'm afraid...

[02:29:03] What?

[02:29:04] Looks like

[02:29:05] I'm here at a bad time.

[02:29:10] Senior, your presence graces this humble place.

[02:29:12] I apologize for not welcoming you properly.

[02:29:14] Please forgive my negligence.

[02:29:15] Madam,

[02:29:16] aren't you worried

[02:29:18] that I might bring bad luck to your sect?

[02:29:22] Senior, you must be joking.

[02:29:24] With your cultivation level,

[02:29:26] how could you trouble a junior like me?

[02:29:36] May I ask what you want?

[02:29:38] If there is anything I can help,

[02:29:40] our sect

[02:29:40] will do its best.

[02:29:42] Have you managed to repair transportation formation of your sect?

[02:29:45] I'd like to use it.

[02:29:46] The transportation formation?

[02:29:49] Sorry

[02:29:50] to disappoint you.

[02:29:52] Recently, the demon beasts

[02:29:53] have once again grown rampant.

[02:29:55] We still haven't found

[02:29:57] the Phantasm Stone yet,

[02:29:59] so the transportation formation isn't fully repaired.

[02:30:02] It might be finished soon though.

[02:30:04] How soon?

[02:30:06] Well…

[02:30:08] I'm not sure.

[02:30:13] Fine,

[02:30:14] the conversation is over.

[02:30:16] Goodbye.

[02:30:19] Senior, why don't you have a rest here

[02:30:21] and leave tomorrow?

[02:30:28] Alright.

[02:30:29] Then I will rest here

[02:30:31] and leave tomorrow.

[02:30:33] Good.

[02:30:34] Take Senior Li to the best guest room we've got.

[02:30:38] Sect Leader,

[02:30:39] why are we letting him stay the night?

[02:30:41] Last time, he injured Elder Yun in front of everyone.

[02:30:44] How dare you say it?

[02:30:47] This Senior Li has an incredible cultivation level.

[02:30:48] I want to make friends with him, any problem?

[02:30:51] I have urgent matters,

[02:30:53] so be off now.

[02:31:06] No Nascent Soul cultivators

[02:31:07] have been detected in the nearby waters,

[02:31:10] and Yun Tianxiao is also not here.

[02:31:14] Come in.

[02:31:21] Senior, why are you still up this late?

[02:31:23] So you knew I was coming.

[02:31:26] Sect Leader Fan, your hints were quite obvious.

[02:31:28] I'd also like to know

[02:31:31] what you need to discuss in private.

[02:31:33] But I'm not one to beat around the bush,

[02:31:34] if it's not about the transportation formation,

[02:31:36] then I'm not interested.

[02:31:39] Of course.

[02:31:41] Being chased to the Outer Star Sea by so many Nascent Soul evils,

[02:31:45] I totally get

[02:31:46] why Elder Han wants to go back.

[02:31:49] I don't know what you're talking about.

[02:31:51] Elder Han?

[02:31:53] Who's that?

[02:31:54] The one

[02:31:56] I'm talking about is

[02:31:57] the rogue cultivator of Heavenly Star City,

[02:31:59] the master of Void Heaven Ding,

[02:32:01] Insect Devil in the Outer Sea of Stars,

[02:32:03] guest elder of Melodious Sect,

[02:32:05] Han Li,

[02:32:06] you, Senior.

[02:32:08] Isn't that right?

[02:32:10] How did she recognize me?

[02:32:12] With her level of cultivation, it's impossible to see through my true appearance.

[02:32:15] I didn't see through it,

[02:32:17] but I could smell it.

[02:32:20] This has nothing to do with cultivation level.

[02:32:21] I've been sensitive to scents ever since I was a kid.

[02:32:24] The last time we met it was too crowded.

[02:32:27] Elder Han, you were also too far away from me.

[02:32:29] But today, we met face-to-face in the hall,

[02:32:31] and I finally recognized you.

[02:32:37] So,

[02:32:39] Should I call you Left Envoy Fan,

[02:32:41] or Sect Leader Fan?

[02:32:47] Senior, the thing is,

[02:32:49] when the sect leader went missing,

[02:32:51] the Demonic Sects suddenly attacked the Melodious Sect.

[02:32:54] If we didn't follow their orders,

[02:32:56] I'm afraid that the whole Melodious Sect

[02:32:57] would have been wiped out.

[02:33:05] The Melodious Sect is in danger.

[02:33:08] Would you mind

[02:33:09] helping us

[02:33:10] eliminate that despicable scoundrel Yun Tianxiao.

[02:33:15] How could Yun Tianxiao

[02:33:18] abduct you right under the nose of the Star Palace on his own?

[02:33:22] There's something fishy.

[02:33:24] Aren't you afraid

[02:33:26] that you can't afford to offend the person behind it?

[02:33:31] I am well aware.

[02:33:34] Yun Tianxiao hasn't taken what he wanted,

[02:33:38] or I, the sect leader

[02:33:40] would've been replaced.

[02:33:43] You'd better think it over,

[02:33:45] Being a puppet

[02:33:46] is better than being dead.

[02:33:52] I've tried to reach Core Formation several times but failed,

[02:33:54] I've been dying.

[02:33:56] If it weren't for Sect Leader Wang saving me,

[02:33:58] I'd have died.

[02:34:00] I bear disgrace,

[02:34:02] cling on by a thread,

[02:34:04] and call myself the Sect Leader,

[02:34:05] all I want is to make Melodious Sect impart and inherit,

[02:34:08] and return it to Miss Wang one day.

[02:34:10] I'll do anything for you

[02:34:12] without hesitation.

[02:34:14] as long as you could help me.

[02:34:17] I do admire your loyalty.

[02:34:19] Unfortunately,

[02:34:20] I'm also in danger now,

[02:34:21] - I can't... - If I can help you

[02:34:23] go back to the Inner Sea soon,

[02:34:26] Elder Han, would you be willing to lend a hand?

[02:34:30] I thought you hadn't found Phantasm Stones to repair transportation formation?

[02:34:35] To be honest,

[02:34:36] Melodious Sect spent a fortune to buy some,

[02:34:38] but I kept them all secretly.

[02:34:40] I was going to

[02:34:42] use them to escape.

[02:34:44] You just need to eliminate him.

[02:34:47] As for us,

[02:34:48] since we've managed to survive,

[02:34:51] we're able to ensure our safety.

[02:34:54] Transportation formation, Phantasm Stone, I need both of them.

[02:34:57] Once I've checked,

[02:34:58] I'll make my move.

[02:35:01] It's a piece of cake.

[02:35:02] We're pretty close to the transportation formation,

[02:35:04] about two days' travel.

[02:35:05] Tomorrow,

[02:35:06] no,

[02:35:07] we can set off now.

[02:35:09] When we get there,

[02:35:10] Senior, please kill

[02:35:11] all of Yun Tianxiao's trusted men stationed there.

[02:35:14] Deal.

[02:35:29] (Two Days Later)

[02:35:32] Transportation formation is right here.

[02:35:35] But there are

[02:35:36] all Yun Tianxiao's henchmen on the island.

[02:35:38] They're at the Foundation Establishment stage,

[02:35:40] but a great bunch,

[02:35:41] Senior, please

[02:35:44] help...

[02:35:52] It's done,

[02:35:53] let's go.

[02:35:57] Well,

[02:36:00] please rest assured, Senior,

[02:36:01] In four or five days at most,

[02:36:03] the formation will be fully repaired,

[02:36:05] by then, Yun Tianxiao

[02:36:06] will come back to Nanli Island and manage market affairs.

[02:36:08] Thanks for helping us kill him then.

[02:36:10] Here are some top-quality materials,

[02:36:12] repair this formation as soon as you can.

[02:36:16] Yes, Senior.

[02:36:35] I wanted to try using Gold-Consuming Bug,

[02:36:37] but once I unsealed Divine Devilbane Lightning,

[02:36:39] the Wind Spirit Energy took effect immediately.

[02:36:41] The pain is unbearable,

[02:36:43] but if Feng Xi locates me,

[02:36:45] it might not be worth the trouble.

[02:36:47] Feng Xi said

[02:36:49] the Energy will gradually dissipate.

[02:36:50] Could it take a few years

[02:36:52] or even decades?

[02:36:53] Or

[02:36:54] maybe he was lying.

[02:36:56] How about it?

[02:36:57] Are you willing to lend me a hand?

[02:36:58] Let's change

[02:36:59] the Sea of Chaotic Stars.

[02:37:01] If you do not fail me,

[02:37:02] neither will I

[02:37:04] fail you.

[02:37:05] This demon is like a savage monster and a cunning human,

[02:37:08] I can't trust him so easily.

[02:37:11] Forget it,

[02:37:12] I shouldn't think about these now.

[02:37:14] By my estimation,

[02:37:15] Yun Tianxiao will be back soon,

[02:37:17] I'd get rid of him,

[02:37:19] and go back to the Inner Sea of Star quickly.

[02:37:26] Sage, that's Nanli Island.

[02:37:29] It seems

[02:37:30] something good is about to happen,

[02:37:33] I come here with you by my whims.

[02:37:35] You promised to offer me a female disciple,

[02:37:38] I still remember it.

[02:37:41] It was unsettled last time,

[02:37:42] I don't want to see it happen again.

[02:37:45] Congratulations on having

[02:37:46] an auspicious sign.

[02:37:47] You're truly favored by fortune.

[02:37:49] Last time,

[02:37:50] Sect Leader Fan covered up for her sect disciple.

[02:37:53] But this time,

[02:37:54] I promise

[02:37:55] I won't let you go disappointed.

[02:38:00] Excellent.

[02:38:04] - Go. - Go.

[02:38:09] Senior,

[02:38:10] something bad.

[02:38:11] I got a message by Voice Transmission Technique.

[02:38:12] Besides Yun Tianxiao,

[02:38:13] Nascent Soul cultivator, Miaohe Sage

[02:38:14] is returning with him,

[02:38:16] and they've already landed on the island.

[02:38:17] I sensed it.

[02:38:20] I sent people to hold them up,

[02:38:22] but it's too late to stop now.

[02:38:24] All of Yun Tianxiao's minions have been eliminated.

[02:38:26] If he stays any longer,

[02:38:28] he'll know something is wrong.

[02:38:29] What's his relationship with Miaohe Sage?

[02:38:32] If I kill Yun Tianxiao,

[02:38:34] will he seek revenge for him?

[02:38:39] They are neither kindred nor friends.

[02:38:40] Yun Tianxiao invites him here, so he could get a female cultivator.

[02:38:43] I know what to do

[02:38:44] with such an old lecher.

[02:38:46] If I can offer him great benefits,

[02:38:49] I guess he won't get involved.

[02:38:52] In that case,

[02:38:54] Madam Fan, please get Yun Tianxiao himself to a room,

[02:38:58] I'll kill him

[02:38:59] before he calls for help.

[02:39:05] Just leave it to me.

[02:39:10] Among those who know I have Void Heaven Ding,

[02:39:12] 9 out of 10 want to kill me.

[02:39:14] Madam Fan,

[02:39:16] what would you do

[02:39:18] if I killed Yun Tianxiao?

[02:39:19] And these disciples of Melodious Sect,

[02:39:23] won't you decide to expose my identity

[02:39:26] to curry favor with that Miaohe?

[02:39:31] Don't worry, Senior,

[02:39:34] if I did that,

[02:39:36] Miaohe Sage would probably kill me afterward.

[02:39:42] Moreover,

[02:39:43] you're the savior of Melodious Sect,

[02:39:46] I'd never be so ungrateful.

[02:39:49] Now, I'm sure

[02:39:50] you've misunderstood me deeply, Senior.

[02:39:53] It's alright.

[02:39:55] When we first met in Heavenly Star City,

[02:39:58] I had no idea

[02:39:59] that you saved our sect leader on Prime Star Island that year.

[02:40:02] I was only thinking about the sect's interests

[02:40:04] and making a deal with you, Senior.

[02:40:06] I'm sorry if I offended you,

[02:40:07] I really am.

[02:40:12] But this time,

[02:40:13] rest assured, Senior,

[02:40:15] I swear by my devotion to Tao

[02:40:17] that I'd never repay kindness with ingratitude.

[02:40:24] May I ask

[02:40:26] another favor?

[02:40:29] If you can find our sect leader, Senior,

[02:40:31] could you please

[02:40:32] give these items to her for me?

[02:40:35] This jade pendant

[02:40:36] is a heirloom of Melodious Sect.

[02:40:37] It's said that the secret

[02:40:39] can only be disclosed after Sect Leader has Core Formation.

[02:40:42] Also,

[02:40:43] please tell Miss Wang,

[02:40:46] that I, Fan Jingmei,

[02:40:47] have fulfilled my duty,

[02:40:48] and I didn't let Melodious Sect fall into ruin.

[02:40:52] Okay.

[02:41:00] Is this how Melodious Sect

[02:41:02] treats guests?

[02:41:04] This is a bit rough.

[02:41:06] Sage, be patient.

[02:41:09] They're on their way.

[02:41:37] Here, Sage.

[02:41:39] Please rest here for now.

[02:41:42] I'll get everyone

[02:41:43] together to serve you.

[02:41:46] Senior Miaohe,

[02:41:47] Elder Yun,

[02:41:49] sorry for being late.

[02:41:54] Sect...

[02:41:55] Sect Leader Fan.

[02:42:00] (Episode 134 Upheaval in Outer Sea Season 2)

[02:42:04] (Watch with Headphones for Better Viewing Experience)

[02:42:10] Senior Miaohe,

[02:42:11] Elder Yun,

[02:42:13] sorry, I'm late.

[02:42:17] Where's Yun Qin?

[02:42:19] Why isn't she here serving you?

[02:42:24] Elder Yun,

[02:42:26] why is Yun Qin

[02:42:27] so undisciplined?

[02:42:30] Sect Leader,

[02:42:31] Senior Miaohe is here,

[02:42:33] mind your manners.

[02:42:34] What did Yun Qin do

[02:42:36] to make you so angry?

[02:42:38] Then,

[02:42:39] I'll call a spade a spade.

[02:42:42] Today,

[02:42:42] a rogue cultivator came here,

[02:42:44] saying he wanted to sell a batch of Phantasm Stones.

[02:42:47] What?

[02:42:48] Phantasm Stones?

[02:42:52] That's a pretty big deal,

[02:42:53] and Yun Qin negotiated with that person

[02:42:56] without even telling me.

[02:42:58] Does she still see me as the Sect Leader?

[02:43:02] Sorry for the embarrassment caused,

[02:43:04] please wait a moment, Sage.

[02:43:06] I need to take care of

[02:43:07] some sect business with Sect Leader,

[02:43:09] and will be here with you later.

[02:43:13] Just go ahead.

[02:43:16] Sect Leader Fan, drink a few more with me later.

[02:43:22] Sage, you do have a tender heart

[02:43:23] for the fair lady,

[02:43:28] unlike someone,

[02:43:29] all disciples are spoiled.

[02:43:33] Everyone,

[02:43:35] do your best,

[02:43:38] show Sage some hospitality.

[02:43:42] Elder Yun,

[02:43:43] let's go.

[02:44:17] Elder Yun,

[02:44:19] I'll leave you two here.

[02:44:26] You lowly maid,

[02:44:27] do you think you can turn the tables

[02:44:29] by hooking up with that old fox, Miaohe?

[02:44:31] When you come unstuck because of that old perv,

[02:44:34] you'll learn who you can mess with

[02:44:35] and who you can't.

[02:44:41] Fellow.

[02:44:50] Are you the guest who has the Phantasm Stones?

[02:44:53] Where is Yun Qin?

[02:44:58] It's been ages,

[02:45:00] it seems like, Fellow Yun,

[02:45:02] you've forgotten about me.

[02:45:06] It's you.

[02:45:16] Senior Miaohe, help me.

[02:45:20] Save it, no one will come to your rescue,

[02:45:23] Soundproof Curse has been set here.

[02:45:29] Sage Li, wait, Sage,

[02:45:31] I know your power is unparalleled.

[02:45:34] I've tried it last time.

[02:45:36] Besides that female cultivator,

[02:45:37] you can have

[02:45:39] anything you want.

[02:45:40] It's all yours.

[02:45:41] Let me go, okay?

[02:45:44] If you do not leave some leeway,

[02:45:46] I'm not someone you can take lightly,

[02:45:48] as I've cultivated for a long time.

[02:45:50] Try to destroy his Golden Core?

[02:45:51] Go.

[02:46:42] Didn't expect a Core Formation cultivator

[02:46:45] to have so many Ancient Treasures.

[02:46:56] Senior Miaohe,

[02:47:00] I asked him to help me deal with the traitor,

[02:47:03] Yun Tianxiao.

[02:47:05] Please rest assured, Senior.

[02:47:07] Whatever that scoundrel promised you,

[02:47:09] I'm willing to offer double.

[02:47:13] Double?

[02:47:16] What do you mean by 'double'?

[02:47:21] Okay then.

[02:47:22] As it's Melodious Sect's internal matter,

[02:47:24] I will

[02:47:26] stay out of it.

[02:47:30] Well,

[02:47:31] Sect Leader, remember

[02:47:33] what you said.

[02:47:36] Don't worry, Senior.

[02:47:39] I still need your guidance,

[02:47:42] how could I go back on my word, sage?

[02:47:51] But,

[02:47:53] you seem unfamiliar,

[02:47:56] what's your name? And who's your master?

[02:47:59] I've been in the Outer Sea for years,

[02:48:00] how come I have never seen you before?

[02:48:02] Would you like to join my Puffy Clouds Sect?

[02:48:07] I...

[02:48:17] It activates at this time.

[02:48:21] That was close.

[02:48:24] You're...

[02:48:25] Xuan...

[02:48:34] You stole Void Heaven Ding.

[02:48:43] Elder Han,

[02:48:44] I do hope you can escape.

[02:48:51] Damn it,

[02:48:52] he found me.

[02:48:54] Wait,

[02:48:55] Xuan...

[02:48:56] Did he mean Xuan Gu?

[02:49:01] Does he think my soul has been replaced by Xuan Gu?

[02:49:06] Senior Xuan Gu,

[02:49:07] I'm really sorry about earlier.

[02:49:09] I'm Miaohe.

[02:49:11] Don't go, please.

[02:49:12] If I hadn't had to suppress that Wind Spirit Energy,

[02:49:15] this old guy wouldn't have caught up with me.

[02:49:19] I'm Miaohe,

[02:49:21] and have admired you for long, Senior.

[02:49:23] Please stop and have a chat.

[02:49:31] What's this secret technique?

[02:49:34] I guess he used Magic Treasure from Void Heaven Ding.

[02:49:36] What a pity, the evil Absolute Darkness suffered a lot,

[02:49:39] but it ended up in my hands.

[02:49:41] Great!

[02:49:42] Today is indeed my lucky day.

[02:49:44] Senior,

[02:49:45] I mean no harm.

[02:49:46] I just want to buy a Heavenly Remedy Pill at a high price.

[02:49:50] Well, I've been close friends with your beloved disciple,

[02:49:52] Absolute Darkness, for many years.

[02:49:53] So, you're like my Martial Uncle, Senior.

[02:49:56] Don't get mad at me, okay?

[02:49:58] How about we go back and have a drink?

[02:50:00] I won't let you down, Senior.

[02:50:03] You silly goose,

[02:50:05] you chose to do it the hard way.

[02:50:06] What demonic method is the old man practicing?

[02:50:09] His phantom carries a seductive voice,

[02:50:12] but luckily, Great Development Technique can protect me.

[02:50:14] Otherwise, I'd be bewitched by his nonsense.

[02:50:19] How do you manage to move so quickly?

[02:50:20] Li Feiyu!

[02:50:23] Give me my stuff back!

[02:50:24] It's Feng Xi.

[02:50:26] Damn it.

[02:50:27] He caught up so quickly.

[02:50:30] What's that?

[02:50:31] Is this guy also for Void Heaven Ding?

[02:50:34] Nascent Soul cultivator.

[02:50:36] You disgusting humans.

[02:50:57] My Martial Nephew,

[02:50:58] hold him off for me,

[02:50:59] I'll help you later,

[02:51:01] and you won't do it for nothing.

[02:51:03] What?

[02:51:03] Me?

[02:51:04] You disgusting humans.

[02:51:07] I won't let either of you go.

[02:51:22] Void Heaven Ding is there,

[02:51:25] no,

[02:51:25] I can't give up here.

[02:51:30] You filthy humans.

[02:51:46] So it looks like

[02:51:47] he does come for the treasure.

[02:52:02] He's really fighting hard.

[02:52:22] Well done.

[02:52:24] Thanks for the help, Martial Nephew, Miaohe.

[02:52:27] Absolute Darkness Island

[02:52:28] will remember your kindness.

[02:52:31] Wait,

[02:52:31] Xuan Gu, you...

[02:52:34] You disgusting humans,

[02:52:35] go to die!

[02:52:38] You evil, Miaohe,

[02:52:39] hang in there.

[02:53:02] You're in the way,

[02:53:08] Wait, wait.

[02:53:09] Isn't there some misunderstanding?

[02:53:12] Go away!

[02:53:22] My Magic Treasure.

[02:53:24] You're pushing me too far!

[02:54:12] How dare you use my Wind and Thunder Feathers?

[02:54:20] Never ever meet again.

[02:54:27] No!

[02:54:28] Li Feiyu!

[02:54:58] The left is wind,

[02:55:00] and the right is thunder,

[02:55:04] I can use it as I please.

[02:55:13] Where is he?

[02:55:14] The most powerful Magic Treasure of the feathered race

[02:55:17] is gone,

[02:55:18] all is gone.

[02:55:20] There is nothing left.

[02:55:22] Damn it.

[02:55:23] My Void Heaven Ding.

[02:55:25] You're in cahoots with that swindler.

[02:55:28] No, I'm not.

[02:55:30] He was talking nonsense.

[02:55:31] I just wanted a treasure from him.

[02:55:34] Treasure?

[02:55:38] Go to hell.

[02:55:41] We're not enemies.

[02:55:52] Miaohe Sage was beaten by Feng Xi,

[02:55:55] his body was destroyed,

[02:55:57] and only his Nascent Soul managed to escape.

[02:55:59] The Flood Dragon race

[02:56:00] launched large-scale attacks

[02:56:03] on the surrounding seas for several years.

[02:56:06] A lot of human cultivators

[02:56:08] fled,

[02:56:09] or died,

[02:56:11] and even Nascent Soul evils here

[02:56:14] were badly hurt under the siege

[02:56:17] of high-rank demonic beasts.

[02:56:19] And every time the demon beasts

[02:56:21] would ask

[02:56:23] if there was

[02:56:24] a Core Formation cultivator surnamed Li before they attacked.

[02:56:27] But this person

[02:56:28] seems to be ghosting,

[02:56:31] no one recognized him.

[02:56:33] Those implicated ones

[02:56:36] were too scared to vent their anger at demonic beasts,

[02:56:39] instead, they pinned this one

[02:56:42] on the cultivator surnamed Li,

[02:56:44] hate welled up inside them, while they cursed him.

[02:56:48] Only on a remote small island,

[02:56:50] does a shrine stand for an unknown cultivator,

[02:56:53] with these words inscribed:

[02:56:54] Senior Li, your great kindness will never be forgotten.

[02:56:57] Your humble junior,

[02:56:59] Gongsun Xing.

[02:57:02] (Episode 135 Upheaval in Outer Sea Season 2)

[02:57:06] (Watch with Headphones for Better Viewing Experience)

[02:58:00] Well done,

[02:58:03] you've summoned

[02:58:06] the most tricky Black Demon.

[02:58:09] I'm flattered, Master.

[02:58:10] It's just a visual image,

[02:58:12] but you've got the basics down.

[02:58:15] Next,

[02:58:16] you'd try to advance to Nascent Soul.

[02:58:19] As for that,

[02:58:22] maybe I can wait until after the war.

[02:58:28] Don't play any tricks.

[02:58:32] I dare not.

[02:58:34] If you hadn't rescued me from the pile of bodies,

[02:58:37] and taught me for a hundred years,

[02:58:39] how could I have achieved my cultivation level?

[02:58:42] I've known since I was a kid

[02:58:44] that I could only repay your kindness

[02:58:46] by reaching Nascent Soul.

[02:58:48] Good.

[02:58:50] Any ideas about the place

[02:58:53] I asked you to find?

[02:58:56] Master,

[02:58:57] I've sent people to Inner and Outer Sea,

[02:58:59] and I've made some progress.

[02:59:03] Alright,

[02:59:05] I'll give you some more time.

[02:59:07] If you haven't found it

[02:59:10] by the time I'm done with my Door Training,

[02:59:14] you'd start to move up to Nascent Soul.

[02:59:21] I

[02:59:23] will remember it.

[02:59:28] Young Master.

[02:59:40] Young Master,

[02:59:41] Soul Lamp of Outer Sea's deacon just extinguished.

[02:59:43] The one surnamed Yun?

[02:59:46] That good-for-nothing,

[02:59:50] I guess, he's been

[02:59:51] flirting with the female cultivators of Melodious Sect for years.

[02:59:54] Any idea who did it?

[02:59:56] I heard that the demon beasts in Wondrous Depths have been out of control,

[03:00:00] and in a few decades,

[03:00:01] they nearly wiped out all the human cultivators' strongholds.

[03:00:04] This time, it might also be the work of those demon beasts.

[03:00:06] He deserved to die.

[03:00:08] But

[03:00:09] those from Melodious Sect

[03:00:10] are likely in grave danger,

[03:00:12] which might mess up your plans.

[03:00:15] Forget it,

[03:00:17] luckily, I didn't entrust the most important guest to him.

[03:00:20] Get the carriage ready.

[03:00:22] It's time to

[03:00:23] go out for a stroll.

[03:00:25] Yes, Young Master.

[03:00:47] Why are there other people here?

[03:01:12] Elder Ding,

[03:01:13] now everyone is here.

[03:01:16] Can you tell us

[03:01:18] about the bounty mission?

[03:01:24] Fellow, you look unfamiliar,

[03:01:28] are you also from the Coalition?

[03:01:31] Starfall Coalition?

[03:01:32] I have a token given by Wen Tianren,

[03:01:35] I can try to fool him.

[03:01:36] They don't seem friendly,

[03:01:38] so if anything goes wrong,

[03:01:40] I can just eliminate them.

[03:01:41] (Wen)

[03:01:47] Your Master is the Six Paths of Devil Saint Island,

[03:01:50] my apologies for not recognizing you earlier.

[03:01:52] I'm Ding Xie.

[03:01:53] Greetings, fellow.

[03:01:54] May I know your name?

[03:01:58] Alas, save it.

[03:02:00] It's a few days earlier than I expected.

[03:02:03] It's unlikely

[03:02:05] there is an outsider

[03:02:07] in such a remote place.

[03:02:09] I'm curious,

[03:02:10] who can catch the attention of dab hand of Senior Six Paths,

[03:02:13] and be the target of Black Sun Sect's Execution Order?

[03:02:17] Just tell everyone here.

[03:02:18] Black Sun Sect?

[03:02:20] It sounds familiar.

[03:02:21] Everyone,

[03:02:22] this enchantress

[03:02:23] is Yuan Yao.

[03:02:25] My Young Master felt sorry for this lonely girl,

[03:02:27] and wanted to take her as a concubine.

[03:02:29] But

[03:02:30] this ungrateful girl repaid kindness with betrayal,

[03:02:32] bewitched Young Master,

[03:02:34] harmed him with another wicked girl,

[03:02:36] and

[03:02:37] stole many treasures from our sect.

[03:02:39] She's been on the run for years.

[03:02:41] But our sect has tracked her down,

[03:02:45] and issued this Execution Order.

[03:02:47] I hope you can

[03:02:49] help me catch this wicked girl,

[03:02:51] no matter how risky it is.

[03:02:53] Our sect will offer you a great reward.

[03:02:55] Yuan Yao.

[03:02:56] That is her.

[03:02:58] It's no wonder she could be a Core Formation cultivator so quickly.

[03:03:00] So that's the backstory.

[03:03:03] What concubine?

[03:03:04] I guess your Young Master wanted her to be a Cultivation Vessel,

[03:03:07] but she outsmarted him.

[03:03:09] Mr. Ding, you don't just have to deal with this pitiful

[03:03:11] and useless second-generation heir,

[03:03:15] but you also get mixed up in all sorts of problems.

[03:03:17] You're demoted from deputy manager

[03:03:18] to hall leader,

[03:03:20] and chase after a young woman all over the world.

[03:03:24] What bad luck!

[03:03:25] You fool,

[03:03:27] stop nonsense here,

[03:03:29] or the Black Sun Sect might go after you too.

[03:03:32] Enough,

[03:03:33] stop the noise.

[03:03:34] We're here for the reward,

[03:03:37] so tell us

[03:03:38] where this girl is.

[03:03:46] It'd be great if I could take the chance to find Yuan Yao,

[03:03:49] and exchange some more Ten Thousand Year Spiritual Milk.

[03:03:54] She's on an island in the south.

[03:03:57] We have no time to waste.

[03:03:58] We'd better

[03:04:00] get going right away.

[03:04:01] If anyone can catch her alive,

[03:04:03] Young Master will give a bonus reward.

[03:04:05] Well,

[03:04:06] I see.

[03:04:09] Elder Ding,

[03:04:10] please lead the way.

[03:04:24] What's going on?

[03:04:25] It's this late,

[03:04:27] and they're slacking on being punctual.

[03:04:29] Why hasn't the transportation formation on the order side been activated yet?

[03:04:32] Why keep me waiting here?

[03:04:42] Elder Ding,

[03:04:43] the spiritual aura here is thin.

[03:04:45] Are you sure that wicked girl

[03:04:46] is hiding here?

[03:04:48] My Huge Whale Sect has countless barren islands,

[03:04:51] all of them are better than this one.

[03:04:54] You layman,

[03:04:55] this is a formation to block the spiritual aura.

[03:04:57] It's not your fault for not recognizing it,

[03:04:59] it's our sect's secret formation

[03:05:00] Spiritual Aura Confinement Formation.

[03:05:02] This wicked girl's cultivation level is not high enough.

[03:05:04] If Great Ancestor Three Suns sets up this formation,

[03:05:07] it'll be easy to block every single wisp of spiritual aura.

[03:05:16] Spiritual Aura Confinement Formation.

[03:05:17] Interesting.

[03:05:26] (Yuan Yao's Perspective: Black-robe Kulou, Protector Ding Xie, Unknown Old Man, Dark-Skinned Brute)

[03:05:28] Fellows, why are you here

[03:05:29] without telling me?

[03:05:31] I'd hate to see you

[03:05:34] accidentally get hurt by the formation.

[03:05:37] She is so gorgeous,

[03:05:40] I can tell why the lad was captivated.

[03:05:44] I have to say,

[03:05:45] I do like her.

[03:05:48] Elder Ding,

[03:05:53] long time no see.

[03:05:55] You wicked girl,

[03:05:56] I'm gonna kill you today.

[03:05:58] Black Fire Thunder.

[03:06:00] Don't you have anything new?

[03:06:08] Get her out of there!

[03:06:11] It's a trap,

[03:06:12] she is not here.

[03:06:12] Let's head to the back mountain.

[03:06:18] Please lend a hand, fellow,

[03:06:19] don't let this girl escape.

[03:06:24] This formation is so impressive,

[03:06:26] it would be great if I could get it with Spiritual Milk.

[03:06:31] Fellow, why not come with me

[03:06:34] and capture her alive?

[03:06:35] Our sect is willing to offer a hundred medium-grade Spiritual Stones

[03:06:38] and a Black Fire Thunder

[03:06:40] as rewards.

[03:06:41] How about it?

[03:06:42] Elder Ding,

[03:06:43] is it true that this girl plotted to kill for wealth,

[03:06:46] or was the man from Huge Whale Sect right,

[03:06:49] your sect's Young Master

[03:06:50] broke his words

[03:06:51] and wanted her to be a Cultivation Vessel,

[03:06:53] and then she tried to defend herself?

[03:06:55] Even if that's true,

[03:06:56] what does it matter?

[03:06:58] She was of humble origin,

[03:07:01] and has a low cultivation level.

[03:07:02] It was her honor

[03:07:05] to be Young Master's Cultivation Vessel.

[03:07:08] As a lowly slave,

[03:07:10] how could she kill her master?

[03:07:12] She deserves death.

[03:07:16] If that's the case,

[03:07:18] I can help you

[03:07:20] if you can give me one thing.

[03:07:23] What thing?

[03:07:26] Your head.

[03:08:47] You're here at the perfect time, fellow,

[03:08:48] she's trapped here, let's take her down in one go.

[03:08:50] She's quite a handful.

[03:08:52] We could just kill her,

[03:08:54] and the reward will be ours.

[03:08:54] Don't do that!

[03:08:55] It would be such a waste.

[03:08:58] Where is Elder Ding?

[03:09:07] You'll see him soon.

[03:09:38] It's been ages,

[03:09:40] Han, you look even more awesome now.

[03:09:47] Fellow Yuan,

[03:09:49] you're quite bold.

[03:09:51] What if I was in cahoots with those people,

[03:09:53] and abducted you?

[03:09:59] If you were to unleash your true abilities,

[03:10:01] I might

[03:10:02] surrender right away,

[03:10:05] after all, you lack a sense of romance.

[03:10:07] Being captured by you

[03:10:09] is better than those sleazy guys.

[03:10:15] But

[03:10:16] I have to thank you

[03:10:18] for saving me again, Han.

[03:10:24] No trouble at all.

[03:10:26] It's been years,

[03:10:27] and your cultivation level has improved a lot, Fellow Yuan.

[03:10:29] Even if I hadn't saved you today,

[03:10:31] you would've escaped yourself.

[03:10:33] Why are so polite to me, Han?

[03:10:34] If you don't mind,

[03:10:36] why don't we have a chat at my place?

[03:10:46] Okay,

[03:10:47] thanks for the invite.

[03:11:02] Han, you've made a name for yourself in the Sea of Chaotic Stars,

[03:11:05] it's said that the first secret treasure of Void Heaven Hall, Void Heaven Ding

[03:11:08] was taken by a Core Formation cultivator surnamed Han.

[03:11:11] Given how impressive your cultivation level is,

[03:11:14] I guess

[03:11:15] you used Heavenly Remedy Pill inside?

[03:11:18] If I say

[03:11:19] I haven't opened the Void Heaven Ding,

[03:11:22] who would believe it in the Sea of Chaotic Stars?

[03:11:24] Really?

[03:11:29] Okay, okay.

[03:11:30] I'll take your word for it,

[03:11:31] whatever you say.

[03:11:34] See?

[03:11:35] No one

[03:11:36] will believe the truth.

[03:11:38] Fine.

[03:11:39] If people think I've had Heavenly Remedy Pill,

[03:11:41] maybe fewer people would have ulterior motives toward me.

[03:11:56] Fellow Yuan,

[03:11:57] I would like

[03:11:58] to make a deal with you.

[03:12:01] What deal?

[03:12:02] I wonder if you still have any of Ten Thousand Year Spiritual Milk?

[03:12:05] I'd like to

[03:12:06] buy it at a high price.

[03:12:09] I haven't used any of it.

[03:12:11] It's yours now.

[03:12:13] No matter how valuable Ten Thousand Year Spiritual Milk is,

[03:12:14] it's nothing compared to what you did for me.

[03:12:17] Han, you can call me Yuan Yao,

[03:12:19] no need for formalities like 'fellow'.

[03:12:24] Han,

[03:12:25] sit down, please.

[03:12:31] (Episode 136 Upheaval in Outer Sea Season 2)

[03:12:35] (Watch with Headphones for Better Viewing Experience)

[03:12:42] Well,

[03:12:43] your cave is really something, Miss Yuan.

[03:12:46] The formation outside is also interesting.

[03:12:52] Besides the Spiritual Aura Confinement Formation,

[03:12:53] it introduces some other powerful formations.

[03:12:57] Formation Compendium of Black Sun Sect.

[03:13:00] (Formation Compendium)

[03:13:06] Miss Yuan, do you need my help

[03:13:09] with anything today?

[03:13:17] Han, don't you want to know

[03:13:23] why Black Sun Sect keeps being so determined to hunt me down?

[03:13:26] I guess you're accused of killing their Young Master,

[03:13:28] and stealing treasures before fleeing.

[03:13:31] Could it be

[03:13:32] there is more to this story?

[03:13:34] Han, do you also think

[03:13:36] that I'm some ungrateful girl

[03:13:37] who used her beauty to seduce a man?

[03:13:41] Han, tell it to me straight.

[03:13:43] Exactly,

[03:13:46] when we first met at Prime Star Island,

[03:13:48] I did want to cling to the powerful for protection.

[03:13:53] I admit it,

[03:13:54] you must think I'm ridiculous.

[03:13:56] When we first met,

[03:13:57] we're both nobodies.

[03:13:59] We haven't known each other for very long,

[03:14:00] but I can tell you're not

[03:14:01] some shameless girl,

[03:14:03] and you won't demean yourself.

[03:14:09] If given a choice in this world,

[03:14:11] who would want to deal with humiliation?

[03:14:14] And, the journey to be immortal

[03:14:15] is already a huge challenge.

[03:14:17] Spiritual Root,

[03:14:18] innate talent,

[03:14:19] family background, and resources,

[03:14:21] only a few people are born with these.

[03:14:24] But for most people,

[03:14:26] it's very demanding.

[03:14:31] But,

[03:14:33] the shortcut

[03:14:34] always comes at a price.

[03:14:42] Thanks for the kind words, Han.

[03:14:45] You're right,

[03:14:47] I did pay for it.

[03:14:50] Han, please follow me.

[03:15:02] This is...

[03:15:06] Soul Nurturing Tree?

[03:15:08] Yes,

[03:15:13] this is why I took a risk and entered Void Heaven Hall.

[03:15:25] Senior Sister Yan Li and I were orphans,

[03:15:28] and we lost our master in our childhood,

[03:15:30] so we had to depend on each other,

[03:15:31] and cultivate together.

[03:15:33] We came from humble beginnings,

[03:15:35] and there was no way we could've reached

[03:15:36] Foundation Establishment on our own,

[03:15:39] so we decided to venture out

[03:15:40] for some opportunities.

[03:15:43] But some things happened,

[03:15:45] Senior Sister Yan Li and I split up.

[03:15:48] But I had no idea

[03:15:49] that she'd become the concubine of Black Sun Sect when we met years later.

[03:15:54] Then I found

[03:15:55] it seemed like she was a concubine,

[03:15:56] and it turned out she was his Cultivation Vessel for dark arts.

[03:16:00] I was both shocked and furious.

[03:16:02] I wanted answers.

[03:16:04] But then the Young Master said

[03:16:07] that if I wanted to be his concubine,

[03:16:09] he'd let my senior go.

[03:16:11] I was desperate to save her,

[03:16:13] so I foolishly agreed to his terms.

[03:16:15] But on the way back to Black Sun Sect,

[03:16:18] my senior secretly told me,

[03:16:20] it's all a trap.

[03:16:22] That's how that scoundrel tricked her into being a concubine,

[03:16:25] and used her as a Cultivation Vessel.

[03:16:27] Other women who had fallen victim

[03:16:30] were already gone.

[03:16:32] Once we return to Black Sun Sect,

[03:16:33] they'll imprison us,

[03:16:35] leaving us no chance to escape.

[03:16:37] So we had no choice but to set a trap,

[03:16:40] when he tried to force me,

[03:16:42] we ambushed that scoundrel

[03:16:45] and it worked,

[03:16:48] but my senior...

[03:16:55] She took a fatal blow for me,

[03:16:58] and his body perished.

[03:17:00] I could only preserve her spirit.

[03:17:02] But as time passed,

[03:17:04] her spirit gradually dissipated,

[03:17:06] is going to disperse.

[03:17:10] Now I know why Soul Nurturing Tree

[03:17:12] is so crucial to you.

[03:17:13] After years of nourishing her with the Soul Nurturing Tree,

[03:17:16] I can finally perform the Revival Arts

[03:17:19] to reform her physical body.

[03:17:22] Revival Arts?

[03:17:23] Is that

[03:17:24] the forbidden art that allows spirit and body to reincarnate?

[03:17:27] Right, over these years,

[03:17:29] I've prepared everything required.

[03:17:32] Miss Yuan,

[03:17:33] even if you can perform this forbidden art successfully,

[03:17:36] with your cultivation level, it's highly possible

[03:17:38] that your Golden Core will be broken, you'll be back to Foundation Establishment,

[03:17:41] and your true essence will be severely damaged.

[03:17:42] I'm afraid that

[03:17:44] you'd likely never make more progress in cultivation.

[03:17:45] Are you aware of the consequences?

[03:17:48] Yes, I am.

[03:17:57] Like you said,

[03:17:58] the shortcut always

[03:18:00] comes at a price.

[03:18:04] My senior

[03:18:07] is all I have in this world.

[03:18:09] So even if there's the slightest chance to bring her back,

[03:18:12] I'll try it.

[03:18:19] Do you think I'm foolish?

[03:18:22] Hope you won't laugh at me.

[03:18:25] In this world,

[03:18:26] there is something

[03:18:28] more important than cultivation or life.

[03:18:32] Perhaps,

[03:18:34] when you're my age,

[03:18:36] you'll get it.

[03:18:45] Miss Yuan,

[03:18:46] you said these,

[03:18:48] are you asking for my help?

[03:18:50] please forgive me,

[03:18:51] would you mind staying longer

[03:18:54] and protecting us

[03:18:56] when I perform Revival Arts for my Senior.

[03:19:05] You're willing to sacrifice your cultivation

[03:19:08] and even your life to save your senior,

[03:19:09] I do admire you.

[03:19:12] Honestly, I've always tried to keep my nose out of other people's business.

[03:19:14] But this time, I'll help you out.

[03:19:18] Han,

[03:19:20] I...

[03:19:22] I don't know how to thank you.

[03:19:25] I...

[03:19:26] Unless there come Nascent Soul evils,

[03:19:28] with my cultivation level,

[03:19:30] I'd be able to keep us alive.

[03:19:32] Don't worry, Miss Yuan,

[03:19:33] you just need to prepare.

[03:19:42] Jeez, Han,

[03:19:45] I was thinking

[03:19:46] if I'd repay with my body this time.

[03:19:50] But

[03:19:51] it seems that you're truly a perfect gentleman,

[03:19:55] then I won't embarrass you.

[03:19:58] Besides the Ten Thousand Year Spiritual Milk and Formation Compendium,

[03:20:00] just name anything else you need.

[03:20:03] There's still quite a lot left

[03:20:05] from what we took from that scoundrel at Black Sun Sect.

[03:20:08] I'll restart my cultivation from Foundation Establishment,

[03:20:14] I won't need these for now.

[03:20:18] Well,

[03:20:19] do you have

[03:20:21] any essence materials for Weeping Soul Beast?

[03:20:28] For this monkey again?

[03:20:35] It seems Han

[03:20:40] likes you so much!

[03:20:59] I read some ancient records,

[03:21:01] it's said that this was a battlefield in ancient times,

[03:21:03] known as Tomb of Demonic Beasts,

[03:21:05] where low-level demonic beasts

[03:21:06] would wait for their final demise.

[03:21:08] But it's really remote,

[03:21:10] and humans barely visit here.

[03:21:29] Senior,

[03:21:30] sleep a while, we'll meet soon.

[03:21:43] The whole process

[03:21:45] will last about three days.

[03:21:47] During that time,

[03:21:48] I'll be counting on you, Han.

[03:21:50] There is no other protective formation

[03:21:52] besides Spiritual Aura Confinement Formation,

[03:21:54] so it'd be dangerous if I'm busy

[03:21:56] dealing with powerful enemies.

[03:23:15] Han, I'll never be able to

[03:23:17] repay your great favor.

[03:23:19] Miss Yuan, it's not too late if you stop it now.

[03:23:22] I do not want to watch my friend die.

[03:23:25] This life was a gift to begin with.

[03:23:28] Yet I met Senior Sister Yan Li,

[03:23:29] achieved Core Formation,

[03:23:30] lived to this day,

[03:23:32] and even encountered

[03:23:33] you,

[03:23:35] I have no regrets left.

[03:23:59] I leave the rest to you,

[03:24:01] Han.

[03:24:06] Miss Yuan,

[03:24:08] be careful.

[03:24:11] Just do what you want to do,

[03:24:14] leave everything else

[03:24:16] to me.

[03:24:34] Senior,

[03:24:37] I'm here.

[03:25:07] No wonder it's a forbidden art,

[03:25:09] so extraordinary,

[03:25:11] like priceless treasures come out,

[03:25:13] it'll draw a lot of attention.

[03:25:15] No wonder she needs me to protect her when performing.

[03:25:18] See?

[03:25:19] Someone is here.

[03:25:20] You guys, stop there.

[03:25:22] One more step,

[03:25:24] I won't hold back.

[03:25:25] We didn't know you're here, Senior,

[03:25:27] spare us,

[03:25:28] please.

[03:25:29] We'll take our leave now.

[03:25:31] Senior, show some mercy, please.

[03:25:35] You're being so presumptuous,

[03:25:37] priceless treasures come out,

[03:25:38] I, Bai, have to try no matter what.

[03:25:40] Ambition never dies until all is over.

[03:25:43] No more words.

[03:25:52] Not my face.

[03:25:53] I'm leaving now.

[03:25:54] Mercy, have mercy.

[03:25:57] This is just the beginning,

[03:25:58] and there are so many people.

[03:26:00] l hope it won't attract any Nascent Soul evils.

[03:26:25] Don't worry,

[03:26:26] I've sent people to search Outer Sea,

[03:26:28] even if only one survives,

[03:26:30] they'll bring her back.

[03:26:32] Thank you, Fellow Wen.

[03:26:34] Please spare these unfortunate souls.

[03:26:37] Why do you keep me at arm's length?

[03:26:39] You know my feelings

[03:26:41] for you now.

[03:26:43] All these years,

[03:26:44] I've never overstepped,

[03:26:46] treated you like an honored guest.

[03:26:47] You'd be reassured now.

[03:26:49] Seriously, Fellow Wen,

[03:26:50] I haven't avenged my family,

[03:26:52] nor have I accomplished anything,

[03:26:54] how could I be qualified for your affection?

[03:27:04] Stop.

[03:27:07] Revival Arts.

[03:27:10] Interesting.

[03:27:12] Is the forbidden art of using spirit to reform one's body?

[03:27:17] Well, good.

[03:27:19] Finally, something that piques your interest.

[03:27:22] Didn't expect this place to be an Extremely Dark Land.

[03:27:24] The performer must have prepared for a long time.

[03:27:27] But,

[03:27:28] it saves me the trouble.

[03:27:30] It seems you're rather intrigued, Fellow Wen.

[03:27:33] So this is the place you're looking for?

[03:27:37] As expected of Sect Leader Zi Ling, renowned for your wisdom.

[03:27:41] Indeed,

[03:27:43] Extremely Dark Land

[03:27:44] does meet one of my requirements.

[03:27:46] I need to test it with your cultivation technique

[03:27:48] to see if it's the place I'm looking for.

[03:27:51] Heavenly Winds, Ghostly Fog,

[03:27:53] and Extremely Dark Land,

[03:27:55] I've known a little about it

[03:27:57] after all this time spent with you.

[03:27:59] But the True Sound Arts passed down by the Wang family

[03:28:01] could be so powerful

[03:28:03] that you would go so far as to keep me here.

[03:28:06] Destiny, it seems,

[03:28:07] has a way of messing with people.

[03:28:09] If I can find what I want this time,

[03:28:12] I'll let you go.

[03:28:13] What do you think?

[03:28:15] It's right on our way.

[03:28:17] Let's go check it out.

[03:28:26] This time it's Core Formation Middle Stage,

[03:28:28] more troublesome,

[03:28:30] but it's peaceful now.

[03:28:41] Something seems off.

[03:28:51] (Episode 137 Upheaval in Outer Sea Season 2)

[03:28:54] (Watch with Headphones for Better Viewing Experience)

[03:29:08] Who's there?

[03:29:17] It's him.

[03:29:19] Why is he in such a remote place?

[03:29:26] Interesting.

[03:29:27] It's been a while since I met a Core Formation cultivator

[03:29:30] who can compare with my spiritual sense.

[03:29:39] Sect Leader Zi Ling, wait a sec, please.

[03:29:40] I'll go talk to this person and be right back.

[03:29:42] Can Revival Arts

[03:29:44] really bring the dead back to life?

[03:30:07] Fellow,

[03:30:09] is your friend using

[03:30:12] Revival Arts here?

[03:30:14] Wen Tianren, the successor of the Six Paths.

[03:30:16] We met before,

[03:30:18] using Transformation Technique,

[03:30:20] there is nothing to be worried about.

[03:30:21] Greetings, fellow.

[03:30:23] It's my friend

[03:30:25] who is trying to save her relative by the arts,

[03:30:27] so I'd be obliged

[03:30:29] if you could stay out of this, please.

[03:30:37] Formation Flags,

[03:30:39] Puppets,

[03:30:40] and Spiritual Creatures,

[03:30:43] could it be Han?

[03:30:45] Zi Ling?

[03:30:46] Why is she here?

[03:30:47] I know

[03:30:48] all the listed Core Formation cultivators of various sects

[03:30:52] in the Sea of Chaotic Stars,

[03:30:54] but I do think you're unfamiliar.

[03:30:57] Could it be

[03:30:59] you're a rogue cultivator?

[03:31:01] I can see that you're pretty skilled,

[03:31:03] especially with your developed spiritual sense.

[03:31:07] I have a piece of advice for you and your friend.

[03:31:12] Join the Starfall Coalition,

[03:31:15] and I will give you important positions.

[03:31:18] I took Void Heaven Ding,

[03:31:20] not to mention Righteous Dao and Demonic Dao,

[03:31:21] even Star Palace won't let me off,

[03:31:23] they'll kill me once they find out where I am.

[03:31:26] You rogue cultivator,

[03:31:28] the one standing here

[03:31:29] is the successor of the Six Paths Saint,

[03:31:31] the undisputed strongest one below Nascent Souls in the Sea of Chaotic Stars.

[03:31:35] Mind your tongue,

[03:31:37] or you may lose your life recklessly.

[03:31:38] Is she reminding me of it?

[03:31:40] Thanks a lot.

[03:31:41] Han,

[03:31:42] please be careful,

[03:31:44] he is indeed the strongest cultivator below Nascent Soul level.

[03:31:48] Didn't know you're Young Master of Starfall Coalition,

[03:31:51] sorry for being impolite before.

[03:31:53] I do appreciate your kind offer,

[03:31:57] but I'm used to being carefree,

[03:32:00] Not everyone can be like the Melodious Sect, which can stay friendly with

[03:32:05] the Star Palace and Starfall Coalition.

[03:32:07] You unknown rogue cultivator,

[03:32:08] I was just trying to be nice,

[03:32:10] but it seems that my kindness was wasted.

[03:32:13] Fellow Wen,

[03:32:15] this person is so rude,

[03:32:16] it would bring no joy to recruit him,

[03:32:18] let's leave.

[03:32:26] Sect Leader Zi Ling, you're usually so collected,

[03:32:30] and rarely show emotion,

[03:32:31] but today, you seem so agitated.

[03:32:47] Fellow,

[03:32:48] are you sure we've never met?

[03:32:51] Why do I feel

[03:32:53] a strangely familiar aura about you?

[03:32:59] (Wen)

[03:33:04] Am I imagining things?

[03:33:09] Never mind.

[03:33:16] Wait.

[03:33:23] Fellow,

[03:33:26] I still don't like to be rejected,

[03:33:30] I'm giving you two choices,

[03:33:32] join the Starfall Coalition,

[03:33:37] or

[03:33:38] die right here.

[03:33:49] I gave you a chance,

[03:33:51] but you brought this on yourself.

[03:33:53] I do have no desire to join your Coalition,

[03:33:56] and I don't want to die here.

[03:33:59] So I have another advice.

[03:34:02] The undisputed strongest one below Nascent Souls

[03:34:04] is

[03:34:06] actually

[03:34:08] a Core Formation cultivator, right?

[03:34:12] I want your head on a silver platter,

[03:34:14] Young Master Wen.

[03:34:20] I knew there'd be a fight today!

[03:35:15] Nice try.

[03:35:35] Begone!

[03:35:45] No,

[03:35:46] I can't let them disturb Han.

[03:35:48] Mr. Wen said,

[03:35:49] he wanted to slay this person with his own hands!

[03:35:51] Are you trying to shame him

[03:35:52] by interfering now?

[03:35:55] Stop now!

[03:35:56] Don't mess with Mr. Wen's fun.

[03:36:01] Sect Leader Zi Ling is right,

[03:36:03] stay back.

[03:36:04] Let's go ahead

[03:36:06] after I kill him.

[03:36:09] Be careful, Sect Leader.

[03:36:11] Don't get too close,

[03:36:12] or you might get yourself in trouble.

[03:36:14] Senior Han,

[03:36:15] I've stopped his guards,

[03:36:17] if you find it hard,

[03:36:18] just leave here.

[03:36:25] Trying to match me in Magic Treasures?

[03:36:29] Come on.

[03:36:47] Your swords are well-forged,

[03:36:50] they seem to be intimidating,

[03:36:53] but not destructive,

[03:36:56] can't break through my Purple Cloud Streamer.

[03:37:35] Insect Taming Technique?

[03:37:37] Go to hell!

[03:37:45] Flying Swords, Spiritual Creatures, and Ancient Treasures,

[03:37:47] you've got a bunch of treasures,

[03:37:52] but none of them are top-tier.

[03:37:54] Those flying needles

[03:37:55] he uses are the Magic Treasure, known for being hard to refine.

[03:37:59] Looks like I have no other choice but to use that thing.

[03:38:07] Green Destiny Needle Talisman Treasure.

[03:38:10] So it's you.

[03:38:11] Back then, you pretended

[03:38:14] to be a Core Formation cultivator at the Initial Stage.

[03:38:15] How despicable!

[03:38:40] How could you damage my Natal Magic Treasure?

[03:38:49] I should've killed you back then.

[03:38:51] But it's not too late now.

[03:38:59] This black fog...

[03:39:00] What kind of technique is this?

[03:39:05] You rogue cultivators

[03:39:08] are nothing but a bunch of trash.

[03:39:13] Only by swallowing your pride,

[03:39:15] and cowering like dogs,

[03:39:17] then you can reach Core Formation and Foundation Establishment by a fluke.

[03:39:20] You think you're qualified to be immortal,

[03:39:23] and see through everything in the world?

[03:39:31] Let's see if you can break through

[03:39:34] my Purple Cloud Streamer with your strongest attack.

[03:39:49] You're so noisy.

[03:40:12] He is still alive?

[03:40:16] Why do you know

[03:40:18] the long-lost arts of Absolute Darkness Island?

[03:40:25] But that was your last chance.

[03:40:28] Let me show you what the real Secret Art is.

[03:41:01] (Six Incarnations True Devil Arts)

[03:41:28] (Present)

[03:42:07] You'd be honored as you could be killed

[03:42:09] by Six Incarnations True Devil Arts.

[03:42:13] You're so noisy.

[03:43:34] Trying to control my formation?

[03:43:47] You're not quite there yet.

[03:44:10] (Episode 138 Upheaval in Outer Sea Season 3)

[03:44:13] (Watch with Headphones for Better Viewing Experience)

[03:44:21] These six devils integrate strike and defense capabilities, if they team up,

[03:44:23] they're almost unbeatable.

[03:44:24] I must take them down one by one.

[03:45:36] This distance should be about right.

[03:46:24] Demonic aura is flowing back.

[03:46:33] Oh no.

[03:46:43] Illusion Technique.

[03:47:12] Go.

[03:47:28] Heal,

[03:47:29] attack,

[03:47:30] ambush,

[03:47:31] illusion technique,

[03:47:32] formation,

[03:47:34] defense,

[03:47:35] all these six true devils are perfectly synchronized.

[03:47:37] If I don't take out the one controlling restoration,

[03:47:39] it could go on forever.

[03:47:41] Fellow, you forcibly activate such an eerie technique,

[03:47:44] the toll must be heavy.

[03:47:45] Be careful, don't exhaust your source.

[03:47:48] Ridiculous,

[03:47:49] you haven't seen the true profundity

[03:47:51] of the top-rank devil arts in the Sea of Chaotic Stars.

[03:47:53] Don't waste time,

[03:47:54] it's no use fishing for information now.

[03:47:56] I hate liars.

[03:47:58] No matter who your master is,

[03:47:59] you won't leave here alive today.

[03:48:01] Well, great.

[03:48:11] What?

[03:48:16] Where is Wen Tianren?

[03:48:19] It seems like their position changed the moment I struck.

[03:48:22] But I took down the one who can heal.

[03:48:25] Next...

[03:48:57] Thunder Evasion Arts?

[03:48:58] That's pretty rare.

[03:49:00] You forcibly activate the arts, fellow,

[03:49:02] the toll must be heavy.

[03:49:04] Be careful, don't exhaust your source.

[03:49:08] He does like to seek revenge for an angry look.

[03:49:55] Protective Magic Treasure,

[03:50:06] Divine Devilbane Lightning.

[03:50:08] These flying swords

[03:50:10] are made of Golden Lightning Bamboo?

[03:50:12] Twenty-four swords?

[03:50:14] Twenty-four swords are nothing,

[03:50:15] but are enough to beat you.

[03:50:19] Wait,

[03:50:22] there is no deep-seated hatred between us.

[03:50:27] Why fight to the death here?

[03:50:29] Let's call it a day.

[03:50:31] If you're willing to submit,

[03:50:33] I can introduce you to my master.

[03:50:37] As an heir to Qingyi Householder,

[03:50:41] you're qualified to join Starfall Coalition.

[03:50:44] It's too late

[03:50:45] for that.

[03:50:47] Take a blow.

[03:50:54] Don't get cocky.

[03:50:56] If I insist on leaving,

[03:50:58] you can't stop me.

[03:51:01] Letting a tiger return to the mountains

[03:51:02] will bring endless future trouble.

[03:51:51] Demonic aura is out of control.

[03:52:26] Could

[03:52:28] it be...

[03:52:32] Finally,

[03:52:33] I finally found it.

[03:52:35] I found it!

[03:52:43] What is this?

[03:52:48] No one should know it,

[03:52:51] absolutely no one.

[03:52:55] If I train here in secret,

[03:52:57] one day,

[03:53:01] I'll be able to get rid of Master.

[03:53:05] Everyone here,

[03:53:06] you,

[03:53:08] and you

[03:53:12] have to bite the dust here.

[03:53:46] This is...

[03:53:47] Golden Light Mirror of Eight Gates

[03:53:48] that killed one leader of Star Palace.

[03:53:54] Han, run!

[03:53:56] Relaxation, Growth, Harm, Concealment, Scenery, Death, Scare,

[03:54:04] unseal!

[03:54:22] What... What is this?

[03:54:24] Could I have been sucked into the mirrors?

[03:54:27] This is your burial ground.

[03:55:12] Five Elements Rings.

[03:55:34] The secret to this formation

[03:55:35] is in the light reflected by these mirrors,

[03:55:38] so it's the key to breaking it.

[03:55:59] I'm right.

[03:56:01] But it's so powerful,

[03:56:02] can a Core Formation cultivator activate this Magic Treasure?

[03:56:06] Clever of you.

[03:56:07] But this is the first trial.

[03:56:31] Han Li.

[03:56:39] Han Li, I'll kill you.

[03:56:41] I'm going to kill you, Han Li.

[03:56:45] What's going on?

[03:56:46] Do I have to

[03:56:47] fight all these past enemies to break it?

[03:56:50] There're eight people,

[03:56:52] including Nascent Soul cultivators and a shapeshifting demonic beast.

[03:56:55] This has to be some kind of illusion.

[03:56:57] I've never heard of any secret treasures with such terrifying power.

[03:57:00] I'll kill you.

[03:57:02] Han Li, I'm gonna kill you.

[03:57:04] Kill you.

[03:57:35] Wait,

[03:57:36] how could Wen Tianren know about all the enemies I've met?

[03:57:40] Unless...

[03:57:48] Just as I thought.

[03:57:51] Let's do it.

[03:57:56] Han and that villain

[03:57:57] have been missing for hours.

[03:57:59] What happened exactly?

[03:58:01] Sect Leader Zi Ling,

[03:58:02] how is Young Master?

[03:58:03] Why can't I see anything?

[03:58:05] No,

[03:58:05] it's the critical moment,

[03:58:06] I can't let them distract Han.

[03:58:08] Stay here,

[03:58:09] this is the ruin Mr. Wen has been searching for.

[03:58:11] If you barge in suddenly,

[03:58:12] and disrupt his arrangements,

[03:58:14] his plans will be sabotaged.

[03:58:16] I won't do it,

[03:58:16] we'll wait here then.

[03:58:19] You bitch,

[03:58:20] once this is settled,

[03:58:21] you'll be useless.

[03:58:23] Just wait and see!

[03:58:25] Han's companion hasn't finished Revival Arts,

[03:58:27] so I'd buy as much time as possible.

[03:58:32] Han,

[03:58:33] why aren't you coming out yet?

[03:58:36] Please come back safely.

[03:58:40] (Episode 139 Upheaval in Outer Sea Season 3)

[03:58:44] (Watch with Headphones for Better Viewing Experience)

[03:58:56] The solution to the Scenery Mirror

[03:58:57] is to defeat the visualized opponent.

[03:58:59] But the power of the opponent isn't set in stone.

[03:59:01] If I hadn't passed the Secular Test,

[03:59:04] and gained experience in the Exquisitely Marvelous Illusory Realm,

[03:59:07] I might have fallen into this trap.

[03:59:09] I hope

[03:59:10] the next one is Life Door.

[03:59:12] Different mirrors are glowing, different effects are present.

[03:59:14] Is it random

[03:59:16] or is there a pattern?

[03:59:17] Lucky you.

[03:59:24] Another one.

[03:59:56] I can't kill it.

[03:59:57] Could it be an illusion?

[04:00:06] What's going on?

[04:00:09] If it keeps speeding up,

[04:00:11] it'll just keep getting bigger and faster

[04:00:13] indefinitely?

[04:00:21] I see.

[04:00:22] Whoever made this mirror bore strong malice.

[04:00:35] The farther away I am, the bigger it is.

[04:00:43] This is the spirit of the mirror.

[04:00:45] It's an apple of Sodom.

[04:00:47] It's still a bit immature,

[04:00:50] but it's a pretty dangerous trap,

[04:00:51] I'd better destroy it.

[04:00:59] They've been at each other's throats for so long,

[04:01:00] now it's a battle of wills.

[04:01:08] I've never seen

[04:01:09] this weird phenomenon.

[04:01:10] Could it be that some Magical Treasure appears?

[04:01:12] Let's get out of here, brother.

[04:01:13] Wait, don't go yet.

[04:01:14] I've never seen it, stay longer.

[04:01:15] Don't do it, let's go.

[04:01:17] Don't leave, why?

[04:01:19] I've never seen anything like that,

[04:01:21] I'm sure some great treasure will show up soon.

[04:01:23] Why are there always onlookers?

[04:01:25] Could they really think that some secret treasure appears?

[04:01:29] Such intense magical power fluctuations.

[04:01:33] Han...

[04:01:34] Six times now,

[04:01:36] when will it ever end?

[04:01:47] I'll exhaust you if you stay there, and kill you if you're out.

[04:01:54] An ordinary Core Formation cultivator

[04:01:56] should be reduced to ashes by the Golden Flame

[04:01:58] in two hours and forty-five minutes.

[04:02:01] Why are you still alive?

[04:02:11] Let's see how long you can last.

[04:02:20] The Golden Flames are unbearable.

[04:02:22] If I don't get out of here soon,

[04:02:24] I'll end up being refined to death.

[04:02:32] I heard that thousands of years ago,

[04:02:34] Sky Mirror Hermit used this mirror

[04:02:36] to kill the Lord of Star Palace at that time.

[04:02:39] How'd it

[04:02:41] get so weak in your hands?

[04:02:44] I think

[04:02:45] it's nothing but a shoddy fraud.

[04:02:48] Fraud?

[04:02:49] Isn't it perfect for taking out a fraud like you?

[04:02:52] Silence.

[04:02:54] Wen Tianren's got

[04:02:55] some pretty remarkable skills.

[04:02:56] He summoned devils,

[04:02:58] and now he's been wielding such a powerful replica of Magical Treasure for so long,

[04:03:01] but it must take a toll on him.

[04:03:03] Now it's a test of our cultivation level and magical power.

[04:03:06] If I hadn't gotten these spiritual liquids,

[04:03:08] I'd be in a world of trouble now.

[04:03:13] Sect Leader Zi Ling,

[04:03:14] leave it be,

[04:03:15] get the female servants together,

[04:03:17] and find whoever is performing the Revival Arts.

[04:03:20] At that time,

[04:03:21] I'd bet he'll surrender.

[04:03:22] Fellow Wen,

[04:03:24] Yin aura here and Revival Arts have been a perfect match,

[04:03:26] and it's not like we can stop now.

[04:03:28] I'm afraid that if we cut the connection,

[04:03:30] the ruins will collapse.

[04:03:34] I can only try to survive by using elixirs and cultivation in this formation?

[04:03:37] Wait,

[04:03:38] even the Lord of Star Palace died here back then,

[04:03:40] his cultivation was far superior to mine,

[04:03:43] I can't wait for death here,

[04:03:44] I've got to find a solution.

[04:03:45] Now only Life Door and Death Door are there.

[04:03:47] Life, Death...

[04:03:50] Wait,

[04:03:51] I feel like I've heard...

[04:03:54] Quick, it's your turn.

[04:03:56] Hurry up, what are you thinking about?

[04:04:02] Sir,

[04:04:03] you've been playing for almost the whole day,

[04:04:05] and you haven't won a single game.

[04:04:07] How come you get more addicted?

[04:04:11] Immortal Master He doesn't come here often,

[04:04:14] I want to hear his Taoist teachings.

[04:04:16] Could you, please?

[04:04:19] You think you can win?

[04:04:20] Have a try.

[04:04:21] Me?

[04:04:22] I know how to play chess.

[04:04:23] It's easy.

[04:04:29] Great!

[04:04:30] That was a really great move.

[04:04:34] Long'er,

[04:04:35] you've got some talent for chess.

[04:04:38] Why don't you

[04:04:39] forget about cultivation,

[04:04:40] and I can teach you how to play chess.

[04:04:42] No,

[04:04:43] I want to learn magic from you,

[04:04:44] magic.

[04:04:45] Alright.

[04:04:46] Once we're done with this game,

[04:04:48] I'll show you some tips.

[04:04:53] The chess game

[04:04:54] is like nature.

[04:04:56] Fortune, misfortune, and neutrality are all meaningful.

[04:05:00] It's just like

[04:05:01] a casual move

[04:05:03] seems to lead to a dead end,

[04:05:06] but,

[04:05:09] it also leaves a glimmer of hope

[04:05:11] for the remaining black pieces.

[04:05:14] Really? That impressive?

[04:05:17] Alright then, I'll learn magic first...

[04:05:23] Dead end,

[04:05:25] the glimmer of hope.

[04:05:26] Death, Life,

[04:05:28] Rest,

[04:05:30] Life,

[04:05:31] Injury,

[04:05:32] Delusion,

[04:05:33] Scenery,

[04:05:35] Life, Fear,

[04:05:37] Open.

[04:05:38] So each symbol on the back of the mirrors

[04:05:40] corresponds to the incantation.

[04:05:43] All eight doors are variable,

[04:05:45] Life and Death are closely linked.

[04:05:47] That's how it is.

[04:05:50] There's only one possibility,

[04:05:51] these two mirrors are connected somehow.

[04:05:53] Fortune and misfortune are two buckets in the same well.

[04:05:54] Difficult times often bring out the best in people.

[04:05:56] There's got to be something dangerous about the Life Door.

[04:05:58] So the exit

[04:05:59] is in the Death Door.

[04:06:05] I hope I made the right bet.

[04:06:40] Doctor Mo,

[04:06:42] give my body back!

[04:06:44] My parents died.

[04:06:46] My sister died.

[04:06:47] They're all dead.

[04:06:49] An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.

[04:06:50] Greetings, fellow.

[04:06:54] You'd better

[04:06:56] save those threats.

[04:06:58] Is it

[04:07:00] an illusion?

[04:07:09] After a century of cultivation,

[04:07:11] one will return to dust in the end.

[04:07:12] I refuse to accept it.

[04:07:14] Newbie, why not join us?

[04:07:26] You're here,

[04:07:27] so it's time.

[04:07:30] You're already dead.

[04:07:34] You don't believe me?

[04:07:35] Then check it out for yourself.

[04:07:40] This time,

[04:07:42] and that time,

[04:07:43] you never managed to escape, did you?

[04:07:58] No matter what world,

[04:08:00] incident,

[04:08:01] or version of you,

[04:08:02] you never managed to escape, right?

[04:08:05] As always,

[04:08:08] you've known it a lot,

[04:08:11] you'll meet your end in countless ways.

[04:08:15] Well, this time,

[04:08:17] you happen to die here,

[04:08:26] Die.

[04:08:27] Since I started this journey,

[04:08:30] I've been walking through Death Door every day.

[04:08:35] I can only move forward,

[04:08:37] move toward that silver of hope.

[04:08:40] My potential is limited, so what?

[04:08:43] A lot of tough enemies are there, so what?

[04:08:45] A narrow escape, so what?

[04:08:48] I don't want to give up.

[04:08:50] I didn't,

[04:08:52] I won't,

[04:08:53] and I do not!

[04:09:27] Life and death hang by a thread.

[04:09:29] The flow of Yin and Yang is a natural law.

[04:10:14] Senior Sister, look,

[04:10:16] Han is fighting for us.

[04:10:18] Just hold on a bit longer,

[04:10:20] we're almost there.

[04:10:47] You lose.

[04:10:51] If you kill me,

[04:10:53] a lot of people will be buried alive with me,

[04:10:56] especially

[04:10:58] those worthless women from the Melodious Sect.

[04:11:03] You'd better

[04:11:04] save those threats.

[04:11:05] If you upset me,

[04:11:07] I might cut you into pieces.

[04:11:09] I haven't killed you

[04:11:11] because I wanna ask you

[04:11:13] about the underwater ruins,

[04:11:15] and why you're searching for it.

[04:11:20] It's merely the entrance to hell,

[04:11:23] if you really want to know,

[04:11:25] why don't you go see for yourself?

[04:11:43] What is that?

[04:11:44] It's...

[04:11:45] It's an eye.

[04:11:47] Death is at your doorstep, no more tricks.

[04:11:50] This...

[04:12:00] This is...

[04:12:10] You saw it too.

[04:12:15] Oh no.

[04:12:16] That's Ghostly Fog.

[04:12:17] Run!

[04:12:18] Run if you want to live.

[04:12:20] Oh no.

[04:12:20] My magic power.

[04:12:35] I can't use even any spiritual power.

[04:12:36] If I hadn't learned Shifting Smoke Steps,

[04:12:38] I would've been dead even if I'm a Core Formation cultivator.

[04:12:47] Damn it.

[04:12:48] I was so close.

[04:13:03] It's destroying these ruins.

[04:13:05] What kind of power is this?

[04:13:06] Could it be

[04:13:07] the legendary Deity Transformation Level?

[04:13:35] (Episode 140 Upheaval in Outer Sea Season 3)

[04:13:39] (Watch with Headphones for Better Viewing Experience)

[04:13:56] Where

[04:13:58] am I?

[04:14:00] Brother.

[04:14:24] Oh no, my magical power.

[04:14:27] I can't open my storage pouch.

[04:14:31] Brother.

[04:14:34] ..

[04:14:44] Did you also fall into this place from that island?

[04:14:57] Sort of.

[04:14:59] Miss,

[04:15:00] could you

[04:15:01] please get up?

[04:15:05] I-I am

[04:15:06] sorry.

[04:15:08] Sorry for the trouble.

[04:15:13] No worries, Miss.

[04:15:18] So

[04:15:19] you don't know where we are either.

[04:15:22] Why not go outside?

[04:15:25] We can get some info.

[04:15:32] The dark mist rises,

[04:15:33] and my magical powers vanish.

[04:15:35] Giant eye in the sky.

[04:15:38] And this spooky place.

[04:15:39] Are we inside the Ghostly Fog?

[04:15:42] Never expected it to be such a big space here.

[04:15:45] I tried a few times,

[04:15:47] but nothing powered by magical powers responded at all.

[04:15:52] What's going on?

[04:15:55] Fellow,

[04:15:56] you also...

[04:16:03] What are you doing?

[04:16:09] Come on!

[04:16:12] Hurry!

[04:16:13] Before those guys show up...

[04:16:15] What a great haul today!

[04:16:23] They're catching fish.

[04:16:25] They're mortals?

[04:16:34] Fire Kylin Beasts are here.

[04:16:35] Retreat, now.

[04:16:38] - Quick, get out of here. - Go.

[04:16:47] What exactly is this place?

[04:17:14] What are you doing?

[04:17:15] Put me down!

[04:17:16] If you don't want to be their lunch,

[04:17:19] you'd better stop talking.

[04:17:34] Firelight.

[04:17:35] Were they the people we met earlier?

[04:17:37] It seems like they want us to be there.

[04:17:43] Chop!

[04:17:57] What are those demonic beasts?

[04:18:18] Sir,

[04:18:19] you're outsiders, right?

[04:18:44] You two are from outside,

[04:18:45] how should we address you?

[04:18:48] My name's Mei Ning,

[04:18:49] a rogue cultivator on Sever Winter Island.

[04:18:51] Mei Ning.

[04:18:57] My surname is Han.

[04:19:00] Have you two met

[04:19:01] anyone else along the way?

[04:19:02] Yes, we have.

[04:19:03] Some people were being chased by demonic beasts,

[04:19:05] and they ran in that direction.

[04:19:07] That must be Hu and the others.

[04:19:09] Glad they're okay.

[04:19:10] Let's retreat outside and help them out later.

[04:19:11] That was quite a commotion.

[04:19:13] We'd better leave here quickly.

[04:19:16] This is Dark Underworld Place,

[04:19:18] whatever your status is outside,

[04:19:20] it means nothing here,

[04:19:22] not even for cultivators.

[04:19:24] If you want to live,

[04:19:26] follow me.

[04:19:33] Dark Underworld Place.

[04:19:35] Outsider.

[04:19:36] This isn't Sea of Chaotic Stars.

[04:19:39] Tianji,

[04:19:40] I think we'd wait for them.

[04:19:43] Elder, no need for that,

[04:19:44] We made a deal,

[04:19:46] you run the village,

[04:19:47] but outside,

[04:19:49] I call the shots.

[04:19:50] Buddies,

[04:19:51] let's get going.

[04:19:58] You two,

[04:19:59] stay close.

[04:20:00] It's dangerous here,

[04:20:02] don't fall behind.

[04:20:46] Oh no,

[04:20:47] that thing is coming.

[04:20:48] Run!

[04:21:06] Look over there.

[04:21:10] Boss!

[04:21:11] Hu and the other, they're back.

[04:21:13] - Hurry. -Now.

[04:21:18] Why do they bring this thing here?

[04:21:21] This must be the thing they were talking about.

[04:21:23] It looks like a low-level demonic beast.

[04:21:26] But my magical powers vanish.

[04:21:27] We can only run.

[04:21:32] Jiao Zheng Beast is coming.

[04:21:33] Quickly!

[04:21:41] Close the gate now.

[04:21:43] Copy.

[04:21:45] Elder and the others are still outside!

[04:21:48] We're running out of time.

[04:21:49] Archery team, ready!

[04:22:10] Run.

[04:22:11] Trust me.

[04:22:12] Make it to the village and we'll survive.

[04:22:39] Oh no!

[04:22:39] Elder.

[04:22:40] Elder?

[04:22:41] So this person is quite important.

[04:22:52] Elder.

[04:22:59] Come back now.

[04:23:02] Fellow Han, you...

[04:23:05] Elder,

[04:23:06] are you all right?

[04:23:07] I'm fine.

[04:23:08] Young man,

[04:23:09] you're a real whiz,

[04:23:11] thanks for saving me just now.

[04:23:14] It's nothing.

[04:23:24] These people are effortlessly throwing

[04:23:26] these huge spears,

[04:23:28] and their internal force is impressive.

[04:23:30] What a pity, they're only mortals.

[04:23:33] There is no sign of magical powers.

[04:23:36] Damn it.

[04:23:38] Let's move.

[04:24:15] It's not working this way,

[04:24:17] these people can't stop the demonic beasts from attacking.

[04:24:18] The time has come.

[04:24:43] Why he can use magical powers there?

[04:24:58] Hurry!

[04:25:01] Now.

[04:25:21] Yeah, we did it!

[04:25:34] That was a close one.

[04:25:37] My surname is Zhou,

[04:25:39] and I'm the Elder of the village.

[04:25:41] handling all sorts of things for now.

[04:25:42] If I'm right,

[04:25:44] you two are cultivators,

[04:25:46] swept into Dark Underworld Place by the Ghostly Fog.

[04:25:50] May I ask what makes the Dark Underworld Place so unique?

[04:25:54] To be honest,

[04:25:55] before I was sucked into the Ghostly Fog,

[04:25:57] I was also a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

[04:26:01] It's pretty common for cultivators to come here.

[04:26:05] You two must've noticed it,

[04:26:08] in the Dark Underworld Place,

[04:26:10] magical powers and spiritual sense don't work at all.

[04:26:13] And you can't open Storage Pouch or Spiritual Beast Pouch.

[04:26:16] We can only use mortal martial arts

[04:26:19] and Dark Underworld Force you just saw.

[04:26:23] Dark Underworld Force.

[04:26:24] Exactly.

[04:26:26] Over there,

[04:26:28] that's

[04:26:29] Dark Underworld Beast Crystal.

[04:26:31] Cultivators can use this external object

[04:26:33] to set up some small formations.

[04:26:35] We just barely made it thanks to its help.

[04:26:37] But it'll be depleted after a few uses.

[04:26:41] We can't get it done once and for all.

[04:26:43] This issue is settled.

[04:26:44] Why don't you

[04:26:45] come inside with me and take a look?

[04:26:47] We can talk about it.

[04:26:49] Please.

[04:26:56] I guess you must have noticed that

[04:26:57] when you just come here,

[04:26:59] Dark Underworld Place

[04:27:00] is almost barren.

[04:27:03] We can only grow enough food

[04:27:05] for survival in a few areas,

[04:27:10] Greetings, Elder.

[04:27:11] Dark Underworld Beast lurking here carry deadly venom,

[04:27:14] we can't eradicate them all,

[04:27:16] and they're inedible.

[04:27:17] It's the formation master we saw earlier.

[04:27:19] Whether you were a low-statue laborer

[04:27:22] or an untethered immortal in the former world,

[04:27:23] here,

[04:27:24] we're all regular folks

[04:27:25] who make a living based on our own abilities.

[04:27:27] I'm completely powerless now,

[04:27:29] I can't stay here forever,

[04:27:31] spiritual pets and bugs

[04:27:32] can't stay in the pouch forever, either.

[04:27:34] The main thing

[04:27:35] is to find a way out first.

[04:27:49] Miss Mei,

[04:27:50] is there anything you need?

[04:27:54] When Ghostly Fog came,

[04:27:56] my brother and I got sucked in together,

[04:27:59] but when I'm awake,

[04:28:02] my brother is missing.

[04:28:03] Perhaps your brother was transported somewhere else.

[04:28:05] We can ask around later.

[04:28:06] There's got to be other villages around here.

[04:28:10] Let's go.

[04:28:19] Take a seat.

[04:28:20] Make yourself at home.

[04:28:21] Everyone will be here soon.

[04:28:44] (Episode 141 Upheaval in Outer Sea Season 3)

[04:28:48] (Watch with Headphones for Better Viewing Experience)

[04:29:09] Distinguished Elders,

[04:29:11] this is Dark Underworld Beast Crystal extracted

[04:29:14] from the skull of Dark Underworld Beast Beast.

[04:29:23] This is...

[04:29:25] Could it be that Dark Underworld Beast Crystal

[04:29:28] is the same as the one used in the puppets?

[04:29:31] Tianji, you've contributed the most this time,

[04:29:34] you shall have more war trophies.

[04:29:35] Let me do the introductions,

[04:29:37] Mr. Han and Miss Mei

[04:29:39] are also cultivators.

[04:29:41] They came through the spatial rift of Spiritual Isolating Aura.

[04:29:46] Cultivator?

[04:29:47] You look pretty young.

[04:29:50] Are you in the Qi Condensation Stage or Foundation Establishment Stage?

[04:29:52] My cultivation

[04:29:53] is not worth mentioning.

[04:29:54] Good.

[04:29:55] Don't try to be a hero and meddle in others' affairs.

[04:29:57] Elder,

[04:29:58] our village doesn't have extra grains.

[04:30:00] These two look weak.

[04:30:02] Now we've got two more mouths to feed.

[04:30:05] We can't afford to support idle people.

[04:30:09] What?

[04:30:14] Everyone,

[04:30:16] Miss Mei and I just got here,

[04:30:18] and we're still deciding if we're going to stay.

[04:30:22] What?

[04:30:24] Are you still acting like a cultivator?

[04:30:26] Good,

[04:30:28] then don't stay here,

[04:30:29] hit the road now.

[04:30:32] He will

[04:30:33] face the music.

[04:30:35] Tianji, mind your words.

[04:30:38] I can't just leave them

[04:30:40] to sink or swim.

[04:30:42] My apologies

[04:30:43] if he offended you.

[04:30:44] Regarding whether to stay,

[04:30:46] I'd suggest giving it some thought.

[04:30:48] Our village may be small, but it's a haven.

[04:30:50] Thanks for the offer, Elder Zhou.

[04:30:52] But I'm curious

[04:30:54] about one thing.

[04:30:55] Is there any way to get back to our world from this Dark Underworld Place?

[04:30:58] You ungrateful people.

[04:31:01] Do you think you can freely come and go as you please?

[04:31:03] You know what the truth is?

[04:31:05] Even Core Formation cultivators

[04:31:07] and Nascent Soul cultivators can't go

[04:31:09] this damn Dark Underworld Place,

[04:31:11] let alone you...

[04:31:12] Behave yourself!

[04:31:26] Fellow Han,

[04:31:27] what's your take on why we cultivators are stuck here,

[04:31:32] living a shaky life?

[04:31:36] If we could leave,

[04:31:38] we'd have long ago.

[04:31:40] Only those present here, like you and me,

[04:31:43] were sucked in by Ghostly Fog,

[04:31:44] and we barely made it to this village.

[04:31:48] You know,

[04:31:50] we also

[04:31:52] lived in the outside world.

[04:31:56] Isn't there a spot

[04:31:58] that leads outside?

[04:32:00] Why not just tell him?

[04:32:01] It's not that simple,

[04:32:04] have you forgotten

[04:32:05] why these empty chairs are here?

[04:32:10] They all dreamed of leaving here,

[04:32:12] but none ever came back.

[04:32:15] How would you know without trying?

[04:32:17] Fellow Han, would you like to hear?

[04:32:19] I'm all ears.

[04:32:22] Well then,

[04:32:23] I'd say it's better to talk you out of this idea.

[04:32:26] A few hundred miles from here,

[04:32:28] there is a place called Stormwind Mountain.

[04:32:31] It's the highest point in the Dark Underworld Place

[04:32:35] Waiting there for the Spiritual Isolating Aura

[04:32:37] to open the spatial rift,

[04:32:41] this is the slimmest chance of leaving here.

[04:32:44] But that place is full of Dark beasts,

[04:32:46] and demonic winds.

[04:32:48] Now that we've lost all our magical powers,

[04:32:50] let alone climbing,

[04:32:52] even approaching it, would be a deadly gamble.

[04:32:56] It does sound dangerous.

[04:32:57] I get what you're saying.

[04:33:00] In that case,

[04:33:01] hope you don't mind me staying a bit longer

[04:33:03] to think about my options again.

[04:33:06] Miss Mei, what do you think?

[04:33:11] Anything you say, Han.

[04:33:14] They have different opinions,

[04:33:16] and it seems like there is more to this than meets the eye.

[04:33:20] But we'll head to Stormwind Mountain, that's for sure.

[04:33:23] I'd be all set for it.

[04:33:27] Han,

[04:33:29] you've noticed it too?

[04:33:30] They seem really keen on us staying.

[04:33:32] So we'd be cautious.

[04:33:34] You distinguished guests.

[04:33:37] Elder asks me

[04:33:38] to send you to your room.

[04:33:40] You two are new here,

[04:33:42] we'll cover your meals and lodging for the first three days.

[04:33:45] After that,

[04:33:46] you need to earn them by taking on missions,

[04:33:48] or you'll be expelled from this village.

[04:33:50] Okay,

[04:33:52] please lead the way.

[04:33:53] Let's go.

[04:34:22] This is your room.

[04:34:29] Why

[04:34:30] is there only one bed?

[04:34:32] There aren't any other rooms available.

[04:34:33] This one's empty because the person

[04:34:34] who was living there died.

[04:34:35] If you're not okay with it,

[04:34:37] you can chop wood and make your own bed tomorrow.

[04:34:40] It's all good.

[04:34:41] Miss Mei, you can sleep on the bed.

[04:34:43] I don't need to sleep,

[04:34:44] meditation is fine for me.

[04:34:46] You outsiders

[04:34:48] would rather suffer than lose face.

[04:34:52] Let me know

[04:34:53] if you need anything.

[04:34:59] Oh, one more thing,

[04:35:00] there're clothes here,

[04:35:01] don't forget to change,

[04:35:03] your current ones are too eye-catching.

[04:35:25] Miss Mei,

[04:35:28] have a rest, please.

[04:35:30] I'll take a look around the village.

[04:35:33] Alright.

[04:35:39] Dark Underworld Force...

[04:35:40] I've never heard of that cultivation method,

[04:35:42] and that crystal stone,

[04:35:44] it seems a bit fishy.

[04:35:50] Those formations

[04:35:52] aren't complicated.

[04:35:55] But their activation conditions

[04:35:56] are a bit specific.

[04:36:00] Fellow,

[04:36:01] have you figured out any secrets yet?

[04:36:05] Ah, it's you,

[04:36:07] fellow, thanks for the info earlier.

[04:36:09] No need to sweat such a small thing.

[04:36:13] My surname is Luo,

[04:36:14] you may call me Luo.

[04:36:18] What a pity,

[04:36:20] out there,

[04:36:21] we can be whatever we want

[04:36:22] with strong magical powers.

[04:36:24] Here, though,

[04:36:26] we mix with mere mortals,

[04:36:29] living a shaky life.

[04:36:31] This is the cruelest joke in the world.

[04:36:39] Fellow, what kind of place is the Dark Underworld,

[04:36:43] in your opinion?

[04:36:45] Judging by its name,

[04:36:47] it's related to Yin Qi and the deceased.

[04:36:50] But I think

[04:36:51] it looks more like a special space between barriers and formations.

[04:37:07] You know a lot.

[04:37:10] But,

[04:37:11] there's another theory,

[04:37:13] we might be inside Rahu, the legendary colossus.

[04:37:17] It's a huge creature that can devour Sun and Moon

[04:37:19] and move through space in an instant.

[04:37:24] It's said to like to lurk deep under the ocean

[04:37:28] for a long time

[04:37:30] before it starts foraging.

[04:37:34] Rahu, colossus.

[04:37:37] How could such a terrifying colossus exist?

[04:37:40] I felt the same way back then.

[04:37:44] Well, on second thought,

[04:37:45] it does make sense.

[04:37:47] If it were a spatial rift opening,

[04:37:49] it should happen at a fixed point in the outside world.

[04:37:52] But actually,

[04:37:53] every time Dark Underworld Place connects with the outside world,

[04:37:56] people entering are from all over.

[04:37:59] For me,

[04:38:01] I came from

[04:38:02] a place called Jin.

[04:38:05] Jin?

[04:38:07] Jin Empire?

[04:38:08] Fellow, you know of Jin Empire?

[04:38:11] Are you also from Jin?

[04:38:14] No,

[04:38:15] I'm just a rogue cultivator at the Sea of Chaotic Stars.

[04:38:18] I've heard of this sacred land

[04:38:19] for human cultivation.

[04:38:21] In the Jin Empire,

[04:38:22] everyone can be a cultivator,

[04:38:23] it's a very fascinating place.

[04:38:25] Indeed.

[04:38:27] What a pity.

[04:38:32] You're from Jin,

[04:38:34] I guess

[04:38:35] that you don't want to grow old and die here.

[04:38:38] Why not try to climb Stormwind Mountain?

[04:38:41] Is it truly impassable?

[04:38:44] Decades ago,

[04:38:46] a Nascent Soul senior who founded this village

[04:38:49] organized us to explore it,

[04:38:52] but after a lot of stuff happened,

[04:38:53] we had to come back empty-handed

[04:38:55] and lose a lot of people.

[04:38:57] It's like a mountain in the dark

[04:38:59] with hidden dangers.

[04:39:01] I'll never forget it.

[04:39:05] Even a Nascent Soul cultivator failed.

[04:39:09] What happened to that senior after that?

[04:39:11] He was really badly hurt and totally dejected,

[04:39:14] and he died not long after he got back.

[04:39:17] It's useless even if he was a Nascent Soul.

[04:39:18] Those precious materials and treasures,

[04:39:20] cultivation methods

[04:39:21] are really valuable to people outside,

[04:39:24] But what's the point of them here?

[04:39:29] Don't give up, Fellow Luo.

[04:39:32] Just because we made it here doesn't mean we can't get out.

[04:39:38] Your optimism

[04:39:40] reminds me of that senior.

[04:39:51] You're not Nascent Soul, are you?

[04:39:54] That senior

[04:39:55] left something

[04:39:57] in the warehouse ahead.

[04:39:59] If you're interested,

[04:40:02] you can go take a look.

[04:40:03] Don't forget to look till the end.

[04:40:10] As for going out,

[04:40:11] I'm not counting on it.

[04:40:17] Anyway,

[04:40:18] pursuing ascension, immortality

[04:40:21] is no different than a baby crying for milk

[04:40:24] or a beast hunting prey.

[04:40:25] It's all because of human desires.

[04:40:28] To stay here in tranquility is better.

[04:40:32] Well,

[04:40:34] forget it.

[04:41:22] These were left by the cultivators who got trapped here.

[04:41:26] There're cultivation experiences of Foundation Establishment,

[04:41:29] Core Formation, and even Nascent Soul cultivators.

[04:41:32] They carved them into stone walls

[04:41:34] to preserve history for future generations.

[04:41:35] It's a basic approach,

[04:41:37] but it's the best one in this Spiritual Isolating area.

[04:41:58] This must be records left

[04:42:00] by the Nascent Soul cultivator that Elder Luo mentioned.

[04:42:04] This is

[04:42:05] his breakthrough insight into the Nascent Soul.

[04:42:07] I never expected to find this in this place.

[04:42:13] I thought that

[04:42:15] with Ninecurl Spirit Ginseng and Great Development Technique,

[04:42:17] becoming Nascent Soul would be a piece of cake.

[04:42:19] But there are so many taboos.

[04:42:21] Especially for the inner demon,

[04:42:23] it's key to whether you'll succeed in being a nascent soul.

[04:42:25] What exactly did he experience

[04:42:28] to make the inner demon so terrifying?

[04:42:30] These realizations can only stay

[04:42:31] in this Spiritual Isolating area, where you can't really cultivate anything.

[04:42:33] It's got to be pretty frustrating for the senior.

[04:42:37] I'll never end up like him.

[04:42:41] Wait,

[04:42:42] what is this?

[04:42:44] It looks like it was smeared on purpose.

[04:43:10] This is

[04:43:13] that senior's personal record.

[04:43:17] Dark Underworld Place,

[04:43:19] 1st year,

[04:43:20] June.

[04:43:22] My magical powers, my magic treasures,

[04:43:24] my spiritual pets...

[04:43:25] This damned ghostly place.

[04:43:30] Dark Underworld Place, 2nd year,

[04:43:33] February.

[04:43:35] We finally found shelter by a riverside.

[04:43:39] But can humans survive in this ghostly place?

[04:43:44] Dark Underworld Place, 5th year,

[04:43:48] July.

[04:43:50] The Dark beasts here

[04:43:52] can make a material called Beast Crystal.

[04:43:55] We can use a small portion of Dark Underworld Force.

[04:43:59] This gives us

[04:44:00] another way to fight these Dark beasts.

[04:44:03] This could be the key to our survival.

[04:44:06] It reminds me

[04:44:08] that I'm a cultivator.

[04:44:13] Dark Underworld Place, 15th year,

[04:44:17] I finally found

[04:44:18] that Stormwind Mountain

[04:44:20] is the only exit to the outside world.

[04:44:23] If I can climb it,

[04:44:25] just go for it...

[04:44:27] Dark Underworld Place, 32nd year.

[04:44:30] Damn it, damn it, damn it!

[04:44:33] This disgusting dark mountain.

[04:44:41] Dark Underworld Place, 40th year.

[04:44:46] That's it,

[04:44:48] just as I thought,

[04:44:49] with enough Crystals,

[04:44:52] reaching the top of the mountain is a matter of time.

[04:44:54] Time, right,

[04:44:56] I still have time.

[04:44:58] Time is of the essence.

[04:44:59] I saw it.

[04:45:01] Dark Underworld Place, 42nd year.

[04:45:05] They all died.

[04:45:07] Why?

[04:45:07] It was so close.

[04:45:10] But they died.

[04:45:12] Good-for-nothing,

[04:45:13] they're all good-for-nothing.

[04:45:19] I've got to make another batch of Crystals.

[04:45:22] But first I need some cultivators.

[04:45:26] Dark Underworld Place...

[04:45:32] I don't know how many years have gone by,

[04:45:35] but I'm running out of time.

[04:45:37] If anyone sees this,

[04:45:40] they'll probably want to climb that mountain too.

[04:45:46] Go,

[04:45:47] just go,

[04:45:50] just go to hell.

[04:45:59] The mountain

[04:46:02] has an eye.

[04:46:10] In the end, he went crazy,

[04:46:12] as if lost all sanity.

[04:46:17] (Episode 142 Upheaval in Outer Sea Season 3)

[04:46:21] (Watch with Headphones for Better Viewing Experience)

[04:46:28] Brother,

[04:46:30] I want to find you,

[04:46:32] but it's a bit risky out there.

[04:46:36] It's you.

[04:46:37] What brings you here so late?

[04:46:39] Miss Mei,

[04:46:40] why are you here alone?

[04:46:42] That hunk bailed on you?

[04:46:45] Damn it,

[04:46:46] he did find something.

[04:46:48] Go with me now,

[04:46:49] this place is not safe.

[04:46:50] We can talk about it tomorrow.

[04:46:51] It's late,

[04:46:52] you'd leave now.

[04:46:53] Listen to me, Miss Mei,

[04:46:54] I brought you here,

[04:46:55] I can't leave you to sink or swim.

[04:46:56] It's a horrible place.

[04:46:57] Leave now.

[04:46:58] We won't make it once night falls.

[04:47:11] You cultivators...

[04:47:13] I'm here to save the day.

[04:47:19] Be careful, Han.

[04:47:21] You said

[04:47:23] it's a horrible place.

[04:47:25] What did you mean by that?

[04:47:30] When did you get back?

[04:47:33] I didn't hear anything.

[04:47:35] You seem pretty confident in

[04:47:37] your martial arts skills.

[04:47:40] You arrogant fool.

[04:47:45] You ask for it.

[04:48:25] Do it,

[04:48:26] even if you kill me,

[04:48:27] you won't survive either.

[04:48:35] Sorry about that.

[04:48:37] You've been trying to warn us a bunch today,

[04:48:39] now you even tried

[04:48:41] taking Miss Mei away,

[04:48:44] because of what was written

[04:48:45] on the stone tablet in that warehouse?

[04:48:49] Fine,

[04:48:51] I admit defeat.

[04:48:53] Cultivators

[04:48:54] are all unfathomable monsters.

[04:48:59] But

[04:49:00] if you don't want to die in vain,

[04:49:02] you'd better leave now.

[04:49:06] Take this,

[04:49:08] if you run into some of the usual monsters,

[04:49:10] you can keep them away with this,

[04:49:13] but if you run into something more formidable,

[04:49:17] then good luck to you.

[04:49:23] Thanks for the help, Han.

[04:49:36] Miss Mei, sorry, I'm late.

[04:49:37] But I think that person meant no harm.

[04:49:39] But this place is so fishy.

[04:49:43] I've decided it, Han,

[04:49:45] if you're going to leave here,

[04:49:46] shall I go with you?

[04:49:48] Miss Mei, as you heard,

[04:49:49] Stormwind Mountain is extremely dangerous.

[04:49:51] I'm not sure if I can do it,

[04:49:53] you don't need to risk your life with me, Miss Mei.

[04:49:57] What if

[04:49:58] I could help you restore a little

[04:50:00] magical power for a while?

[04:50:01] That would be great.

[04:50:02] Han, have you ever heard of

[04:50:03] Transient Jade Phoenix Marrow Constitution?

[04:50:12] I'm all ears.

[04:50:15] These kinds of people

[04:50:16] can transfer Transient Spiritual Aura

[04:50:17] to others by secret techniques.

[04:50:20] Transient Spiritual Aura is one of the Seven Spiritual Auras,

[04:50:23] which can not be restrained quickly here.

[04:50:25] Well,

[04:50:26] the Transient Spiritual Aura

[04:50:28] will naturally fade away later.

[04:50:30] But it should be enough for you to temporarily restore your spiritual power.

[04:50:33] If my magical powers could be back, even a little,

[04:50:35] I'd open my Spiritual Beast Pouch and Storage Pouch.

[04:50:37] With Weeping Soul and some treasures against Dark Beasts,

[04:50:40] we might be able to make it.

[04:50:43] I totally get how precious the spiritual aura is.

[04:50:46] Please feel free to say

[04:50:47] what you want, Miss Mei.

[04:50:55] I hope

[04:50:56] you can help me find my brother,

[04:50:59] so we can head back together.

[04:51:05] Three months,

[04:51:07] in three months,

[04:51:08] I'll do my best

[04:51:10] to find your brother, Miss Mei.

[04:51:12] If we can't find him in three months,

[04:51:14] we'll have to leave right away.

[04:51:18] Thank you so much, Han.

[04:51:21] When do you need Transient Spiritual Aura?

[04:51:23] Now.

[04:51:29] Dark Underworld Place

[04:51:31] The sooner I restore my magical power,

[04:51:32] the more we can do for unforeseen circumstances.

[04:51:35] Miss Mei, may I ask what I should do?

[04:51:41] What you should do?

[04:51:43] Han,

[04:51:44] Transient Spiritual Aura

[04:51:46] only stays in one's lungs.

[04:51:48] To transfer it to you,

[04:51:51] the way is...

[04:51:55] What?

[04:52:03] Eh...

[04:52:10] In one's lungs.

[04:52:11] So that's what you meant,

[04:52:14] I get it.

[04:52:17] Well,

[04:52:23] I'm sorry if I offended.

[04:52:25] Wait...

[04:52:27] Wait a moment,

[04:52:28] I'm not ready yet.

[04:52:30] Miss Mei,

[04:52:31] we're running out of time,

[04:52:33] and this is our last option.

[04:52:35] Once we're out of here,

[04:52:36] this will be kept between you and me.

[04:52:52] Miss Mei,

[04:52:54] my apologies.

[04:53:38] You...

[04:53:39] Your magical power is back.

[04:53:41] It's enough to open my Storage Pouch,

[04:53:43] but not for

[04:53:44] using magic.

[04:53:45] Is this all you can mobilize?

[04:53:48] You want more?

[04:53:50] Han,

[04:53:52] I was wondering

[04:53:55] if you are a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

[04:53:58] Of course not.

[04:54:00] I've been a Core Formation cultivator long ago.

[04:54:03] Core Formation?

[04:54:04] A Core Formation cultivator.

[04:54:22] Miss Mei,

[04:54:23] could you please turn these animal hides into simple clothes?

[04:54:26] They'll help us out against the Dark Wind

[04:54:27] once we leave the village.

[04:54:29] I've got to sort something out

[04:54:31] before my magical power disappears.

[04:54:54] The water...

[04:54:58] This is Sinking Water,

[04:54:59] and it's got some Dark Flame Force.

[04:55:02] We will

[04:55:03] soak our weapons in it,

[04:55:05] and they'll be more powerful

[04:55:06] when we fight Dark Underworld Beasts.

[04:55:08] Let's go.

[04:55:17] I guess

[04:55:18] it's highly possible that we'll battle the Dark Beasts.

[04:55:20] This water's gonna be a lifesaver,

[04:55:22] I'd better grab some for the road.

[04:55:35] That is...

[04:55:37] Elder Zhou?

[04:55:49] What is

[04:55:51] he doing here alone this late?

[04:56:12] You're here.

[04:56:15] Do you think I'm oblivious to what you did?

[04:56:19] You tried to be close to them,

[04:56:22] and led them to see what that man left.

[04:56:25] What are you up to?

[04:56:29] When you're paranoid,

[04:56:31] everything seems haunted.

[04:56:33] I was talking to that young man about home

[04:56:37] to ease my homesickness.

[04:56:40] Your homesickness?

[04:56:42] It's been all these years,

[04:56:44] and you're still holding on to those silly wishes.

[04:56:47] Indeed,

[04:56:48] foolish,

[04:56:50] even that Nascent Soul senior messed up,

[04:56:54] let alone you and me.

[04:56:57] So you know it.

[04:56:59] We'll take care of

[04:57:01] these two later,

[04:57:02] feed their bones to the Dark Beasts,

[04:57:05] we'll probably have quite a few Beast Crystals.

[04:57:07] This way,

[04:57:09] the village can stay peaceful for a few more years.

[04:57:12] It's too late,

[04:57:14] they're leaving tonight,

[04:57:16] I sent Feng Tianji to inform them.

[04:57:19] You...

[04:57:20] You wanna die?

[04:57:22] Yeah,

[04:57:23] I'm already nearing the end of my time anyway.

[04:57:26] We've got

[04:57:29] bloodstained hands

[04:57:31] from trying to survive.

[04:57:37] Now,

[04:57:40] you want to play the good guy.

[04:57:44] Ever since that elder found that method,

[04:57:47] we've been

[04:57:48] able to survive by it every year.

[04:57:51] It's better than asking those mortal villagers to fight wild beasts.

[04:57:56] If they hadn't made such a sacrifice,

[04:57:58] we wouldn't have the Crystals,

[04:58:00] the protective formations,

[04:58:02] or our village.

[04:58:05] We're stuck here forever.

[04:58:09] You'd really condemn the whole village

[04:58:12] to death over that silver of false hope?

[04:58:15] Do their lives

[04:58:16] mean nothing to you?

[04:58:23] You're just trying

[04:58:26] to save your own skin.

[04:58:32] Haven't you had enough

[04:58:35] of living like this?

[04:58:49] So poor,

[04:58:53] back then,

[04:58:54] that's exactly how we attacked that senior.

[04:58:59] Like what we say,

[04:59:00] what goes around comes around.

[04:59:02] My friend,

[04:59:03] just use my corpse,

[04:59:06] let those two young people go.

[04:59:09] You're dying anyway,

[04:59:11] why worry about it?

[04:59:20] This hellhole

[04:59:22] is going crazy.

[04:59:33] Fellow Mei, we should go now.

[04:59:36] Why the rush?

[04:59:38] This place is extremely dangerous.

[04:59:40] It'll be too late by dawn.

[05:00:00] You two are all packed,

[05:00:02] so you've decided to leave here.

[05:00:05] I really appreciate your hospitality,

[05:00:07] Elder.

[05:00:10] I've promised Miss Mei

[05:00:12] that I'd help her find her brother.

[05:00:14] No need to worry.

[05:00:16] Now our village is in dire need of capable people.

[05:00:19] If you're staying,

[05:00:21] I'd like to ask the whole village

[05:00:23] to help Miss Mei find her brother.

[05:00:25] What do you think?

[05:00:28] Elder,

[05:00:29] I appreciate your kindness.

[05:00:31] But we've decided,

[05:00:33] I hope you can understand.

[05:00:35] What a pity,

[05:00:38] I really don't want

[05:00:42] to see you die.

[05:00:44] Perhaps,

[05:00:45] do you have any last wishes?

[05:00:47] I can help you out with them.

[05:00:51] Elder,

[05:00:52] what do you mean by that?

[05:00:54] Going to Stormwind Mountain

[05:00:56] is a death sentence.

[05:00:59] Why not let me make full use of your lives?

[05:01:04] Then everyone here will be happy.

[05:01:36] Elder,

[05:01:38] there is no bad blood between us,

[05:01:41] let us go now,

[05:01:42] and it might be better for everyone.

[05:01:47] Mr. Han, Miss Mei,

[05:01:49] my apologies then.

[05:01:53] (Episode 143 Upheaval in Outer Sea Season 4)

[05:01:57] (Watch with Headphones for Better Viewing Experience)

[05:02:14] They're showing true color?

[05:02:17] My apologies.

[05:02:35] Take cover now.

[05:03:03] Formation ready.

[05:03:33] So troublesome.

[05:03:35] Why is that guy so slow?

[05:03:38] Senior Han!

[05:03:42] Watch out.

[05:03:48] Finally...

[05:04:01] They are...

[05:04:09] It took some time to gather them.

[05:04:16] Where is Elder Luo?

[05:04:18] Elder, could you tell us what's going on?

[05:04:21] That old fox

[05:04:23] raised himself a loyal servant.

[05:04:31] Come back here now!

[05:04:45] What exactly are these crystals?

[05:04:49] Those are taken from Dark Beasts,

[05:04:53] and made up of the magical power that's left over

[05:04:56] once Dark Beasts feed on

[05:04:56] cultivators' flesh and blood.

[05:05:06] I see.

[05:05:08] There he is.

[05:05:09] I'm curious,

[05:05:12] when the Dark Beasts eat your corpses,

[05:05:14] what color will the crystals be?

[05:05:25] The crystals are great for both offense and defense.

[05:05:28] It's tough to deal with him.

[05:05:29] I'm wondering if they can keep up the spiritual power over time.

[05:05:33] With frequent use,

[05:05:36] that's our chance to turn the tables.

[05:05:54] Let's split up and distract him.

[05:05:55] I've got a plan.

[05:05:58] It's so powerful.

[05:05:59] You'd better hurry.

[05:06:04] You old codger,

[05:06:05] I'm right here.

[05:06:37] Now is our chance.

[05:06:52] Why...

[05:06:56] Why won't any of you give up?

[05:06:58] Why do you still want to go?

[05:07:02] No one can leave here anyway.

[05:07:07] This damned place...

[05:07:10] None of us

[05:07:10] can ever

[05:07:12] leave this place.

[05:07:16] So,

[05:07:18] all the cultivators that have died here

[05:07:20] will be fed to the Dark Beasts,

[05:07:21] and Dark Underworld Beast Crystals produced

[05:07:23] are used to protect this village.

[05:07:26] Isn't it ironic?

[05:07:28] Those cultivators who were all-powerful

[05:07:30] never expected to meet this kind of destiny.

[05:07:32] No matter if they were Nascent Soul talents,

[05:07:34] or Qi Condensation cultivators,

[05:07:36] or if they were on the good or bad side,

[05:07:39] in the end...

[05:07:40] None of that matters here.

[05:07:42] To die here,

[05:07:44] or leave here.

[05:07:49] Are you really leaving?

[05:07:53] I'd say

[05:07:55] try living here

[05:07:58] as a mortal,

[05:07:59] you might live longer.

[05:08:02] Well,

[05:08:03] believe it or not,

[05:08:05] I was a mortal.

[05:08:09] Follow the Dark Underworld River to the end,

[05:08:12] you'll see the Stormwind Mountain.

[05:08:13] Take care. Be safe.

[05:08:14] There is a village at the foot of the mountain, called Red Soil Village.

[05:08:17] Be careful.

[05:08:18] It'll be your last stop before the climb, so you can rest there.

[05:08:21] Good luck!

[05:08:53] Elder Luo gave me this thing

[05:08:56] when he was alive,

[05:08:58] he asked me to give it to the cultivators

[05:08:59] who can surpass Stormwind Mountain.

[05:09:02] He saved a lot of our lives.

[05:09:04] Go ahead and take it.

[05:09:10] (Spirit Subjugation Talisman Secret Method)

[05:09:14] Time flies in the outside world

[05:09:16] when I was killing time here.

[05:09:19] Every day, I try to tell myself to let it go,

[05:09:25] but I know that I still hold on to it.

[05:09:31] This is Spirit Subjugation Talisman,

[05:09:34] top treasure of Heavenly Talisman Sect from Huayun Province of Jin Empire.

[05:09:39] Even though it's a small sect,

[05:09:43] as its leader,

[05:09:45] I really don't want to see my sect collapse.

[05:09:47] So I wanna entrust it to you, fellow.

[05:09:50] Should you escape here,

[05:09:53] take this with you, please.

[05:09:56] This is

[05:09:58] my final wish.

[05:10:01] If you fail,

[05:10:06] pass it on to the people who come later.

[05:10:21] (Spirit Subjugation Talisman Secret Method)

[05:10:30] Senior

[05:10:31] Han,

[05:10:33] what will happen to the villagers?

[05:10:35] Without the formation,

[05:10:37] will they be alright?

[05:10:37] They've been around here

[05:10:40] longer than the cultivators.

[05:10:42] You see, mortals

[05:10:43] really do have strong life forces.

[05:12:17] Luckily, I brought it.

[05:12:19] It's the unbeatable rival of such evil creatures.

[05:12:22] Over the last couple of months,

[05:12:23] almost all the souls of Dark Beasts we encountered

[05:12:24] have been eaten by it.

[05:12:26] And we've collected

[05:12:28] a decent amount of Dark Underworld Beast Crystals.

[05:12:33] Gentlemen, have any of you encountered any outsiders

[05:12:36] in the past two months?

[05:12:37] There were some about a month ago,

[05:12:40] but when we found them,

[05:12:43] they had been killed by Dark Underworld Beasts.

[05:12:45] We barely managed to get their personal effects back.

[05:12:48] Were there your companions?

[05:12:53] What a pity,

[05:12:55] we stored their clothes

[05:12:56] in the village warehouse.

[05:12:58] Would you like to take a look?

[05:13:02] Thanks a lot.

[05:13:04] This way, please.

[05:13:40] That was a close one.

[05:13:41] Thankfully, it's just minor injuries.

[05:13:43] Yeah.

[05:13:45] We're lucky.

[05:13:50] We've been trying to find him recently,

[05:13:52] but we haven't had any luck.

[05:13:54] I'm wondering if Fellow Yuan Yao and Zi Ling are alright.

[05:13:59] Given the circumstances,

[05:14:01] they must've been here too.

[05:15:01] This is...

[05:15:06] Miss Mei,

[05:15:27] my condolences.

[05:15:37] I'd better give her some space.

[05:16:02] Mr. Rescuer,

[05:16:04] are you also here to climb Stormwind Mountain?

[05:16:07] I'd suggest not.

[05:16:09] The mountain is plagued by bone-chilling Dark Wind,

[05:16:10] and further up there are strong Dark Beasts.

[05:16:14] You could end up risking your life,

[05:16:16] if you're unlucky,

[05:16:17] you might not even have anything left to bury.

[05:16:20] Has no one ever had success with this before?

[05:16:25] I've lived here over 40 years, and I've never seen it happen.

[05:16:32] Oh,

[05:16:33] two outsiders were here a few days ago,

[05:16:35] a man and a woman,

[05:16:36] they also came for Stormwind Mountain.

[05:16:38] If you go fast,

[05:16:39] you might catch up with them.

[05:16:41] It might be safer to travel together.

[05:16:46] A man and a woman?

[05:16:50] (Episode 144 Upheaval in Outer Sea Season 4)

[05:16:54] (Watch with Headphones for Better Viewing Experience)

[05:17:06] Senior Han,

[05:17:10] my wish has been fulfilled.

[05:17:13] Let's leave here.

[05:18:52] Who would've thought?

[05:18:54] After eating so many Dark Beasts' essence and soul,

[05:18:56] Weeping Soul has gained this ability.

[05:18:59] Could it be a mutated Spiritual Beast?

[05:19:38] It's no surprise that Nascent Soul cultivators couldn't reach the top.

[05:19:41] We ran into more and more strong Dark Beasts,

[05:19:44] but luckily, we have Weeping Soul and those Magic Treasures.

[05:20:20] Let's rest for a bit

[05:20:22] before we go.

[05:20:27] Senior Han,

[05:20:29] my bad for not being able to do more to help.

[05:20:33] Don't worry, Miss Mei.

[05:20:34] I promised to get you out,

[05:20:36] so I won't leave here without you.

[05:20:40] If I'm right,

[05:20:42] we'll be out of this gray mist soon.

[05:21:27] Mr. Han.

[05:21:28] Sect Leader Zi Ling,

[05:21:30] don't forget what you promised me.

[05:21:33] You're still alive,

[05:21:35] then you may rest in peace.

[05:21:56] Inner armor?

[05:22:27] Didn't expect

[05:22:29] you spoiled brat to know mortal martial arts.

[05:22:32] Spoiled?

[05:22:33] What a joke.

[05:22:34] I managed to get away from all the dead bodies.

[05:22:38] You think I hadn't?

[05:23:26] Go.

[05:23:51] Wait,

[05:23:53] don't you want to know

[05:23:55] the secrets of the underwater ruins?

[05:23:57] I'll fill you in

[05:23:57] after we get out of here.

[05:24:01] No more talking.

[05:24:24] Your plans are pointless,

[05:24:29] if it weren't for your constitution being compatible with mine,

[05:24:33] which helps my cultivation,

[05:24:38] when

[05:24:39] I crushed your clan that year,

[05:24:41] I wouldn't have let you off the hook.

[05:24:44] I finally found that place,

[05:24:47] and I haven't killed you

[05:24:49] to avenge my clan.

[05:24:52] How could I die here?

[05:25:01] You old idiot!

[05:25:24] You slaughtered my family,

[05:25:26] and now you want to take my soul.

[05:25:28] Go to hell with me!

[05:25:30] Go crazy?

[05:25:53] I...

[05:25:54] I haven't collected the blood debt yet.

[05:25:57] I can't die here.

[05:26:03] Fine,

[05:26:05] now you'll never get my corpse.

[05:26:15] I'll be laughing at you in hell,

[05:26:20] Master.

[05:26:26] You've brought ruin to so many people of Melodious Sect,

[05:26:29] you deserve it.

[05:27:00] Four Symbols Belt with Coiled Dragon Pattern,

[05:27:02] it's a pretty well-known treasure.

[05:27:04] He was wearing this belt

[05:27:06] and the inner armor,

[05:27:07] and that's how he managed to climb up here safely.

[05:27:10] Han, you might find these useful.

[05:27:11] In this situation,

[05:27:13] the more preparations we make,

[05:27:14] the better our chances of success.

[05:27:18] Senior Han,

[05:27:19] may I ask who this lady is?

[05:27:22] She is Sect Leader Zi Ling of Melodious Sect,

[05:27:24] my old friend.

[05:27:25] This is Mei Ning,

[05:27:27] she got sucked into this place.

[05:27:30] Sect Leader Zi Ling of Melodious Sect,

[05:27:32] the most beautiful woman in the Sea of Chaotic Star,

[05:27:35] I've heard a lot about you.

[05:27:37] No need for formalities, Miss Mei.

[05:27:39] As you're a friend of Han,

[05:27:40] then you're also my friend.

[05:27:44] Miss Zi Ling,

[05:27:46] have you been traveling with the Successor of the Six Paths?

[05:27:52] Just about half a month ago,

[05:27:54] there is no spiritual aura here, so magic doesn't work.

[05:27:57] Luckily, I was teleported to a safe place,

[05:27:59] or I might've ended up in the Dark Beasts' belly.

[05:28:02] I didn't expect to run into

[05:28:04] him first in Stormwind Mountain.

[05:28:06] He needed my help to explore the underwater ruins,

[05:28:08] so he spared me.

[05:28:11] But thanks to your help,

[05:28:12] I got the chance to kill him

[05:28:14] and avenge everyone.

[05:28:15] I see.

[05:28:17] He deserved it.

[05:28:19] But it's not safe here.

[05:28:21] The higher up we go, the more dangerous the Dark Beasts become.

[05:28:24] We'd better go quickly.

[05:28:41] (A few days later)

[05:29:18] Alright,

[05:29:19] it's almost overflowing.

[05:29:44] We've been going through a rough patch lately,

[05:29:47] but it's all thanks to this little one.

[05:29:50] Han, you do have your ways.

[05:29:51] How did you manage to get it from Miss Yuan Yao?

[05:29:55] I'm not the type to force things,

[05:29:57] we made an exchange.

[05:29:59] So,

[05:30:00] since we parted ways at Void Heaven Hall,

[05:30:02] a lot has happened.

[05:30:04] I wonder how Miss Yuan is doing,

[05:30:05] I've been asking around about her,

[05:30:07] but haven't heard anything.

[05:30:08] If the Revival Arts got interrupted,

[05:30:11] it'd bring severe backlash.

[05:30:13] She might already...

[05:30:16] Well, Miss Zi Ling,

[05:30:17] Senior Han,

[05:30:19] it's been a while,

[05:30:20] I've noticed that the number of Dark Beasts

[05:30:21] seems to have dropped.

[05:30:25] We're not quite at the top yet.

[05:30:27] We need to pick up the pace.

[05:31:08] Magical power is back.

[05:31:21] Let's go.

[05:31:33] (Episode 145 Upheaval in Outer Sea Season 4)

[05:31:37] (Watch with Headphones for Better Viewing Experience)

[05:32:05] The rift's really unstable,

[05:32:07] it might disappear at any moment.

[05:32:10] Damn it.

[05:32:11] Looks like it doesn't want to let us go.

[05:32:16] Ladies, hold on tight.

[05:32:18] Go.

[05:32:39] Junior,

[05:32:40] how are you feeling?

[05:32:42] You all right?

[05:32:46] The Revival Arts

[05:32:47] are so overwhelming.

[05:32:49] My Golden Core is busted,

[05:32:51] and can't be fixed.

[05:32:52] Paying such a high price,

[05:32:54] I just want you to be back to life.

[05:32:56] But I've never expected

[05:32:58] to run into the Ghostly Fog.

[05:33:01] The arts were interrupted halfway.

[05:33:03] Your spirit essence has become much more solid,

[05:33:07] but it's impossible to reshape your physical form.

[05:33:11] It's all because of my low-level art skills.

[05:33:14] Junior,

[05:33:17] it's not your fault.

[05:33:19] I'm the one

[05:33:21] who was fooled by that person.

[05:33:23] But,

[05:33:24] every cloud has a silver lining.

[05:33:27] Dark Underworld Aura here

[05:33:29] is really dense.

[05:33:31] So it's perfect for cultivating Yin-Yang Reincarnation Art,

[05:33:34] perhaps,

[05:33:36] our cultivation level might not go down, but it could go up.

[05:33:40] No way!

[05:33:41] It's strong,

[05:33:43] but it's very sinister.

[05:33:46] My junior, do you know

[05:33:48] why the Black Sun Sect

[05:33:49] would rather seal it away than practice it?

[05:33:53] Once the cultivator masters it,

[05:33:54] he will be stuck as a soul cultivator forever,

[05:33:58] can not reincarnate.

[05:34:00] So what?

[05:34:02] We went through so much to save you,

[05:34:04] and find a way to live.

[05:34:07] How could

[05:34:09] I let you go, Senior sister?

[05:34:21] You're right, Yao,

[05:34:23] if I don't care about myself,

[05:34:25] I'm not gonna see any luck in the cards.

[05:34:29] From now on,

[05:34:30] no matter what challenges we face

[05:34:33] or how deep we fall,

[05:34:35] I'll have your back.

[05:34:50] Oh, Han,

[05:34:51] you extended our lives,

[05:34:53] I'll cherish them dearly.

[05:34:56] Well, practicing soul cultivation techniques here

[05:34:58] will get twofold results with half the effort.

[05:35:00] If I can make it this time,

[05:35:01] I hope we can meet again one day.

[05:35:39] Alright,

[05:35:41] we finally get out of that nasty place.

[05:35:42] I don't think the Ghostly Fog

[05:35:43] will spread to this area.

[05:35:51] Han,

[05:35:52] your evasion art is so overwhelming

[05:35:54] that I almost forget to breathe.

[05:36:00] Miss Zi Ling is right.

[05:36:02] Thanks, Senior Han.

[05:36:14] What is this place?

[05:36:16] It's so peaceful.

[05:36:28] Could this be...

[05:36:32] Probably, I know about it.

[05:36:34] Why don't we head south for a bit,

[05:36:36] and figure out what to do when we see the land?

[05:36:39] What do you think?

[05:36:46] This is how fast evasion art works at the Core Formation stage.

[05:37:19] This carefree feeling

[05:37:21] has been gone for so long.

[05:37:51] Senior Han,

[05:37:52] Miss Zi Ling,

[05:37:53] look!

[05:37:54] This island is massive!

[05:37:55] Well,

[05:37:56] is there such a big island in the Inner Sea of Stars?

[05:37:58] It's not an island,

[05:38:00] but a continent.

[05:38:28] Han, do you know where we are?

[05:38:33] It seems that I'm right.

[05:38:35] The water we flew over

[05:38:36] is called Boundless Sea.

[05:38:39] Boundless Sea?

[05:38:41] I've never heard of it.

[05:38:43] What kind of place is it?

[05:38:44] As the name suggests, Boundless Sea,

[05:38:47] is a sea without limits,

[05:38:48] and it's at the northernmost part of Tiannan Continent.

[05:38:54] Let's go.

[05:38:56] There seems to be a town ahead,

[05:38:58] let's go there.

[05:39:01] Tiannan!

[05:39:04] I'm back, finally.

[05:39:23] Go, let's go.

[05:39:25] Good things for sale, come here and see.

[05:39:27] Century-old traditional flavors, best of all,

[05:39:30] come and try it.

[05:39:33] It's been almost 200 years since I left this place.

[05:39:35] Things might be still there, but people are no more the same ones.

[05:40:03] So,

[05:40:04] this is another continent beyond the Sea of Chaotic Stars.

[05:40:07] Thank you, boss.

[05:40:07] Even the language here is totally different.

[05:40:09] Yeah,

[05:40:10] this is the northernmost part of the Tiannan Continent,

[05:40:12] Xi Country.

[05:40:13] Heading further south,

[05:40:14] passing through several nations,

[05:40:16] there's Xu Country where I was born.

[05:40:18] So, Han, you're not from the Sea of Chaotic Stars.

[05:40:21] To be honest,

[05:40:23] I went to the Sea of Chaotic Stars by pure chance.

[05:40:33] Now you return

[05:40:35] to your hometown in glory.

[05:40:37] I guess you have a lot of old friends to see.

[05:40:38] - Take it. - I guess you have many old friends to see.

[05:40:40] Not like that,

[05:40:42] I had no choice but to leave my home

[05:40:44] because of the circumstances.

[05:40:46] It's been years,

[05:40:50] just let it go.

[05:40:54] Han,

[05:40:55] it's packed with people.

[05:40:56] This place must have some charm.

[05:41:00] We two young girls

[05:41:01] are not familiar with it,

[05:41:03] it's time for you to take on the host's responsibilities.

[05:41:05] Of course, I will.

[05:41:06] We're finally returning to the mortal world,

[05:41:08] we'd have a huge blowout.

[05:41:12] You don't know the accent here,

[05:41:14] why don't you take a seat inside?

[05:41:15] I'll grab a few things for you.

[05:41:24] I was surprised to find a cultivation market near Fengri City.

[05:41:27] It reminds me of the old Great South Meeting.

[05:41:31] The current situation

[05:41:33] in Tiannan is different, though.

[05:41:35] It's divided among Six-Devil Dao Sects,

[05:41:36] Righteous Dao Coalition,

[05:41:37] Heavenly Dao Coalition,

[05:41:38] and Nine Kingdoms Alliance, four major powers.

[05:41:42] Righteous Dao Coalition and Six-Devil Dao Sects

[05:41:44] are always at odds with each other.

[05:41:46] More than a dozen small nations

[05:41:47] joined forces to form the Heavenly Dao Coalition,

[05:41:50] creating a three-way power balance.

[05:41:53] While there is Nine Kingdoms Alliance on the southern continent.

[05:41:56] But, in recent years,

[05:41:57] they've had to deal with lots of invasions from Grassland Tribe of Mulan Race.

[05:42:00] Nine Kingdoms Alliance found it hard to deal with,

[05:42:02] and asked the three major powers for help.

[05:42:04] Those three ones are a bit hesitant,

[05:42:06] but they're in the same boat,

[05:42:07] so they have to take turns sending reinforcements.

[05:42:10] With this balance of power, both internal and external,

[05:42:12] Tiannan is pretty evenly matched.

[05:42:17] Take a closer look,

[05:42:20] don't go,

[05:42:21] I can give you a better deal.

[05:42:23] We're in Xi Country,

[05:42:25] which is part of Heavenly Dao Coalition,

[05:42:27] located in the northern part of the continent.

[05:42:29] The war won't reach here for now.

[05:42:32] That's a stroke of luck.

[05:42:37] I've hit a wall recently when using elixirs

[05:42:38] to level up my cultivation.

[05:42:41] I'd find a place with a strong spiritual aura,

[05:42:44] and get ready to reach Nascent Soul.

[05:42:45] Look!

[05:42:46] See,

[05:42:47] Three Sects of Mount Cloudy Dream are opening their gates to recruit disciples.

[05:42:50] But we're just regular mortals,

[05:42:52] how could we be qualified for it?

[05:42:53] The Three Sects of Mount Cloudy Dream is reliable.

[05:42:55] They're openly recruiting disciples close to mortal towns.

[05:43:00] They don't keep quiet about cultivation,

[05:43:02] and they don't make a difference between immortals and mortals.

[05:43:05] Mount Cloudy Dream is rich in spiritual aura,

[05:43:07] it's good,

[05:43:09] and I'd probably choose it.

[05:43:16] Ancient Sword Sect only accepts sword cultivators,

[05:43:19] Master Artisan Sect specializes in refining tools,

[05:43:21] and Drifting Cloud Sect is good at refining elixirs,

[05:43:23] all of these are suitable for me.

[05:43:28] This is...

[05:43:32] Right.

[05:43:35] What is this?

[05:43:37] Our Master Artisan Sect

[05:43:38] is renowned for artifact crafting techniques in Tiannan.

[05:43:42] Our sect

[05:43:43] has cultivation techniques with all elements.

[05:43:47] Given your talents, ladies,

[05:43:49] it'd be awesome,

[05:43:51] if

[05:43:52] you joined our Master Artisan Sect.

[05:43:57] Do you

[05:43:59] have any concerns?

[05:44:01] Miss Zi Ling,

[05:44:02] what does he mean?

[05:44:03] It seems like he wants to recruit us.

[05:44:06] So what should we do now?

[05:44:07] Let's wait

[05:44:08] for Han to get back.

[05:44:10] If he resorts to force,

[05:44:11] I'll find a way to take you with me.

[05:44:14] So quiet.

[05:44:19] You can't talk?

[05:44:22] Being disabled in body but firm in spirit.

[05:44:26] I have

[05:44:27] a lot of respect for that.

[05:44:29] No need to stress, ladies,

[05:44:30] I really

[05:44:31] want to recruit you.

[05:44:35] How about this?

[05:44:36] Ladies,

[05:44:38] why not come back to our sect with me,

[05:44:40] and we can talk about it more?

[05:44:53] Shameless, Elder Fu,

[05:44:55] you really crossed the line with those two ladies.

[05:45:01] It's no surprise they call you the rarest genius in Drifting Cloud Sect,

[05:45:05] Lady Song,

[05:45:14] your Harmonic Mind

[05:45:17] has grown

[05:45:18] more formidable.

[05:45:29] Fu,

[05:45:31] you dare try to win young ladies' affections,

[05:45:33] what a dumpster fire!

[05:45:35] Sadly,

[05:45:36] these two ladies

[05:45:37] probably won't be fond of you, old man.

[05:45:40] Bai,

[05:45:43] you...

[05:45:47] Hold your sharp tongue.

[05:45:50] Our Master Artisan Sect

[05:45:52] also has promising young talents.

[05:45:56] They're either old bachelors or lunatics,

[05:45:59] no promising young talents at all.

[05:46:01] Now that everyone is here,

[05:46:03] let's focus on our task at hand.

[05:46:05] I'll be heading back early

[05:46:06] to get to sword practice once it's finished.

[05:46:08] Let's go.

[05:46:15] Fellows,

[05:46:16] please consider our Master Artisan Sect.

[05:46:19] Feel free to visit our sect anytime.

[05:46:22] You

[05:46:22] can tell them I invite you there.

[05:46:49] Fu, you owe me another one.

[05:46:53] If we hadn't gotten there in time,

[05:46:54] you would've been killed.

[05:46:57] I...

[05:47:01] That person's spiritual sense is exceptionally powerful,

[05:47:03] and well-concealed.

[05:47:05] If I hadn't sensed a trace

[05:47:06] of killing intent by my Harmonic Mind,

[05:47:08] we wouldn't have noticed him at all.

[05:47:09] He's probably a Nascent Soul talent.

[05:47:12] I have to say, I was a bit careless.

[05:47:16] They're new here, I just wanted to fly a kite

[05:47:20] There have been

[05:47:22] a lot of newcomers in Xi Country recently.

[05:47:24] Now all the fractions are getting restless.

[05:47:26] Neither Mulan nor the Nine Kingdoms Alliance are calm.

[05:47:30] I heard that, in addition to the Third Tribe,

[05:47:31] the Second and Fourth Tribe

[05:47:33] are also preparing for war.

[05:47:36] If it's real,

[05:47:37] I'm afraid

[05:47:38] Tiannan will descend into chaos again.

[05:47:50] (Episode 146 Upheaval in Outer Sea Season 4)

[05:47:54] (Watch with Headphones for Better Viewing Experience)

[05:48:03] We can't go back to the Sea of Chaotic Stars right now.

[05:48:06] If we want to live here,

[05:48:07] we've got to learn the local language.

[05:48:11] I'm glad you're doing well.

[05:48:12] Senior Han,

[05:48:13] great to see you're back!

[05:48:14] To avoid

[05:48:15] any unnecessary drama,

[05:48:17] I only gave a warning

[05:48:18] instead of striking first.

[05:48:20] Han, you're back so fast,

[05:48:22] I guess you had a plan.

[05:48:23] Honestly,

[05:48:25] I'm at the final stage of Core Formation.

[05:48:28] It's time to find a place for Closed Door Training

[05:48:30] and get ready to reach Nascent Soul.

[05:48:32] But we've experienced a lot,

[05:48:33] before I take my leave,

[05:48:35] I shall help you ladies settle in,

[05:48:36] quickly learn the local language and customs,

[05:48:39] so you'll not face such awkwardness again.

[05:48:42] Han, congrats on your long-awaited breakthrough,

[05:48:44] I'm sure you can do it,

[05:48:46] advance to the Nascent Soul.

[05:48:48] Luckily, I've recently reached Middle Stage of Core Formation,

[05:48:51] so I'm going to find a cave

[05:48:53] to consolidate my cultivation.

[05:48:56] What about you, Miss Mei Ning?

[05:48:59] I...

[05:49:00] I'm a bit dense,

[05:49:02] at the Middle Stage of Foundation Establishment,

[05:49:07] and I had little chance of reaching Core Formation.

[05:49:10] While my brother is dead,

[05:49:12] maybe

[05:49:13] I'd seek refuge with a high-level cultivator.

[05:49:17] Miss,

[05:49:18] you absolutely must not.

[05:49:20] What if you encounter someone with malicious intent?

[05:49:23] They might well end you.

[05:49:25] Honestly,

[05:49:26] I also lost my loved ones,

[05:49:29] because of that,

[05:49:31] we'd live on with greater strength

[05:49:32] even for them.

[05:49:36] There are so many poor souls

[05:49:38] in this world.

[05:49:43] Well,

[05:49:44] what should I do?

[05:49:46] Sect Leader Zi Ling is right.

[05:49:47] Miss Mei,

[05:49:48] don't underestimate yourself.

[05:49:52] We could never have escaped that place so quickly without your help.

[05:49:59] Senior Han,

[05:50:01] can I be with you?

[05:50:02] Miss Mei,

[05:50:04] I'm a man of sparse desires,

[05:50:06] wholly devoted to cultivation,

[05:50:07] and often in danger.

[05:50:09] So I'm not your right man.

[05:50:11] I'm afraid

[05:50:13] I can't promise that,

[05:50:17] I hope you don't take offense, Miss Mei.

[05:50:19] I'm not trying to be difficult,

[05:50:22] I've had some minor successes,

[05:50:25] but

[05:50:25] the enemies I created

[05:50:27] are the ones with immense power.

[05:50:29] Until I reach the Nascent Soul stage,

[05:50:30] and have strong power,

[05:50:32] I'm barely able to protect myself.

[05:50:35] If something unexpected happens,

[05:50:37] I can't protect you.

[05:50:40] It would only bring sorrow.

[05:50:44] Senior Han,

[05:50:45] if you

[05:50:46] reach the Nascent Soul,

[05:50:49] would you like to accept me?

[05:50:52] First,

[05:50:54] I'm not sure

[05:50:56] if I'll be able to make it,

[05:50:58] moreover,

[05:50:59] even if I do,

[05:51:00] who knows how long it'll take?

[05:51:03] It could be several decades or even a century.

[05:51:07] Miss Mei,

[05:51:08] would you like to wait that long?

[05:51:11] I...

[05:51:28] Miss Mei,

[05:51:29] you're in a foreign land with no family,

[05:51:31] so it's normal to feel uneasy.

[05:51:34] But the world is always changing,

[05:51:36] and cultivating is dangerous and cruel.

[05:51:39] Instead of waiting around for things to change,

[05:51:43] why not

[05:51:44] take the initiative and commit to cultivation?

[05:51:47] Maybe one day, you can also have

[05:51:49] Golden Core, just like Miss Zi Ling.

[05:51:56] Could

[05:51:58] it be the Fallout Pill?

[05:52:00] The best elixir required for Core Formation.

[05:52:03] Is this for me?

[05:52:05] Han is right.

[05:52:08] Miss,

[05:52:09] you should take it.

[05:52:12] With this,

[05:52:13] it'll be highly possible that you could have Core Formation.

[05:52:17] We could also travel together.

[05:52:19] If we run into the same situations we did before,

[05:52:20] we can support each other.

[05:52:22] If you can make your own destiny

[05:52:23] with your own efforts,

[05:52:25] why worry about not being able to return home?

[05:52:32] I'm a bit dense,

[05:52:34] thank you both for enlightening me.

[05:52:35] Senior Han,

[05:52:37] Miss Zi Ling,

[05:52:38] I'll put my all into my cultivation

[05:52:40] and always be grateful for your kindness.

[05:52:47] Miss Mei Ning.

[05:52:49] Thank you, Miss Zi Ling.

[05:52:57] They two remind me of that year.

[05:53:08] Caihuan,

[05:53:09] with your strong will back then,

[05:53:11] if you cultivated,

[05:53:12] you would've achieved great things.

[05:53:15] What a pity,

[05:53:16] fate can be cruel.

[05:53:19] I let down your cheer infatuation.

[05:53:47] It's a peaceful place,

[05:53:49] perfect for secluded living.

[05:53:53] Han,

[05:53:54] got anything to say to me?

[05:54:00] Madam Fan

[05:54:01] entrusted these things to me.

[05:54:04] Now

[05:54:05] I can give them to you.

[05:54:12] Miss Fan.

[05:54:15] Miss Zhuo.

[05:54:17] And Siyue.

[05:54:21] I finally reach the Core Formation,

[05:54:25] gaining the power the protect everyone.

[05:54:31] From now on,

[05:54:33] am I all alone again?

[05:54:36] My condolences, Sect Leader.

[05:54:51] (There is Eternal Youth Elixir in the bottle, have it, then you'll be young forever.)

[05:54:52] (I'm gonna hit the road, and don't know when I shall return.)

[05:54:53] (Miss Mo, just forget me. -- Han Li)

[05:54:54] I also had such a friend.

[05:54:59] We're both ordinary when we met,

[05:55:02] but then misfortune struck her family,

[05:55:04] her parents died.

[05:55:06] When we met again,

[05:55:08] she had become a doctor,

[05:55:10] serving the world with medical skills.

[05:55:13] But because of me,

[05:55:15] she lost her shelter again.

[05:55:17] Later on,

[05:55:18] to avenge her family,

[05:55:20] she dared to challenge cultivators

[05:55:22] as a mortal.

[05:55:31] What a reckless girl.

[05:55:36] If I were her,

[05:55:38] I might not be so determined.

[05:55:45] What happened then?

[05:55:47] I guess you helped her

[05:55:49] get revenge for her parents' murder, right?

[05:55:56] What really matters is

[05:55:59] that she was able to move forward on her own.

[05:56:02] Out of the past and her pain,

[05:56:05] She found the strength to move forward.

[05:56:07] She's not letting vengeance or love hold her back.

[05:56:10] She only lives for herself.

[05:56:12] Mortals have short lives,

[05:56:15] but she gave it her all,

[05:56:17] and made a wonderful life.

[05:56:24] Honestly,

[05:56:26] she's one of the people I admire most.

[05:56:32] So,

[05:56:34] your relationship with her

[05:56:36] is pretty special.

[05:56:38] She must be one of your cherished people.

[05:56:50] Alright, I'll stop teasing you.

[05:56:53] Thanks for sharing this with me.

[05:57:00] Don't judge a man

[05:57:02] until you've walked in his shoes.

[05:57:04] Sorry I went on the soapbox today,

[05:57:07] Sect Leader.

[05:57:10] With your smarts,

[05:57:12] in the future,

[05:57:14] you'll surely leave your mark here in Tiannan.

[05:57:17] But,

[05:57:18] Righteous and Demonic Sects are having fierce battles,

[05:57:20] while Mulan people preparing for war.

[05:57:21] This place is already considered a haven.

[05:57:24] Why not take a breather here,

[05:57:26] and look for new opportunities later?

[05:57:29] Oh, yeah,

[05:57:32] there's a record of local customs

[05:57:34] and linguistic guidance

[05:57:35] in this jade tablet.

[05:57:37] Just take it.

[05:57:40] Thanks, Han.

[05:57:43] Miss Mei Ning and I

[05:57:45] are going to seal our cave,

[05:57:46] and have Closed Door Training

[05:57:49] to consolidate our cultivation before we take the next step.

[05:57:57] Han,

[05:57:58] do you still remember Shadow Leaving Bead that year?

[05:58:20] Han,

[05:58:23] are you leaving?

[05:58:28] All good things must come to an end.

[05:58:31] These days

[05:58:33] have been the most carefree in my life.

[05:58:40] Well, the two people's life in Shadow Leaving Bead

[05:58:42] might be also a good choice.

[05:58:51] It's just...

[05:59:17] Han,

[05:59:36] when we meet again,

[05:59:37] should I call you 'Patriarch Han'?

[05:59:41] Or since you're so decisive and ruthless style,

[05:59:45] I should call you

[05:59:47] 'Demon Han'?

[05:59:53] Yea,

[05:59:56] thanks for the kind words then.

[06:00:02] Miss Wang,

[06:00:07] take care.

[06:00:24] Han, Take care.

[06:00:26] Wish you could reach Nascent Soul.

[06:00:30] I will

[06:00:32] do my best

[06:00:34] to catch up with you ASAP.

[06:00:42] They said that

[06:00:43] deep within Mount Cloudy Dream

[06:00:45] there's a Spirit Well Tree

[06:00:47] that's been around for tens of thousands of years.

[06:00:49] Golden Lightning Bamboo, Soul Nurturing Tree and this tree

[06:00:51] are known as Three Divine Woods of the cultivation world.

[06:00:54] It's said Soul Soothing Pill

[06:00:55] that alleviates Heart Demon invasion when trying to reach Nascent Soul

[06:00:59] can be refined using divine sap from this tree.

[06:01:03] It'd be great if I could get some.

[06:01:07] These three sects have been getting along

[06:01:10] on Mount Cloudy Dream for thousands of years,

[06:01:12] so they've got their ways of doing things.

[06:01:16] I'm tired of being chased to kill.

[06:01:19] I'd join in a sect,

[06:01:20] and use spiritual veins' power

[06:01:21] to break through to the Nascent Soul.

[06:01:24] After I make it,

[06:01:25] I can go

[06:01:27] wherever I want.

[06:01:30] Master Artisan Sect mostly recruits disciples from cultivation families.

[06:01:31] Master Artisan Sect mainly recruits disciples from cultivation families.

[06:01:33] While Ancient Sword Sect values disciples' spiritual roots above all.

[06:01:36] As for Drifting Cloud Sect,

[06:01:38] it has diverse techniques but is master of none.

[06:01:39] I haven't heard of any disciple restrictions.

[06:01:54] - Thank you! - No worries.

[06:01:55] Don't crowd, keep in line.

[06:01:57] Come here one by one.

[06:01:57] There's enough for everyone.

[06:01:58] Be careful.

[06:02:00] What can I do for you?

[06:02:01] Thank you, stars,

[06:02:02] without you,

[06:02:03] my Bao might not have made it this time.

[06:02:06] Right.

[06:02:07] But the elixir is a bit bitter,

[06:02:09] and chews like sand,

[06:02:10] not as tasty as cerealose.

[06:02:11] Bao,

[06:02:12] don't talk nonsense,

[06:02:13] Knock on woods.

[06:02:15] Your hands out.

[06:02:17] Medicine for the kid.

[06:02:18] Just a minute.

[06:02:23] Which one's the medicine for the kid...

[06:02:26] Well done, Martial Nephew Sun.

[06:02:27] No wonder you ranked last

[06:02:30] in the last Alchemy Exam.

[06:02:34] The rest of you, line up here.

[06:02:40] What can I do for you?

[06:02:43] The entrance test.

[06:02:44] Over there.

[06:02:45] These powerful cultivators

[06:02:47] are offering free medical treatments for mortals.

[06:02:49] Thanks.

[06:02:49] Even if it's once or twice a year,

[06:02:51] it's still a rare act of kindness.

[06:02:54] And I've heard that,

[06:02:55] as long as you can master the basic techniques to a certain level,

[06:02:58] Drifting Cloud Sect will recruit you no matter what your spiritual quality is.

[06:03:00] That might be 'Truly teaching without discrimination.'

[06:03:06] Okay,

[06:03:07] I'll choose you,

[06:03:09] Drifting Cloud Sect.

[06:03:12] Look! He's flying, he has a Flying Sword!

[06:03:17] It's been ages since I used a Flying Sword.

[06:03:19] Where did I put it?

[06:03:43] Never mind,

[06:03:44] I can walk,

[06:03:46] and take the chance to enjoy Drifting Cloud Sect's environment.

[06:04:04] (Episode 147 Upheaval in Outer Sea Season 4)

[06:04:08] (Watch with Headphones for Better Viewing Experience)

[06:04:19] It looks like the faint mist

[06:04:20] is having an effect on Qi Condensation cultivators.

[06:04:23] Has the entrance test already started?

[06:04:31] Senior Feng,

[06:04:32] why there are fewer

[06:04:34] newly recruited rogue cultivators?

[06:04:36] And,

[06:04:37] they all seem

[06:04:39] totally unqualified.

[06:04:43] It's because my father

[06:04:45] made an exception and recruited a cultivator at Qi Condensation Stage Eighth Level,

[06:04:48] which makes outsiders think

[06:04:50] our admission standards are very slow.

[06:04:53] We keep losing at every Sword Testing Tournament,

[06:04:55] we lost to Ancient Sword Sect, then we lost to Master Artisan Sect,

[06:04:58] or we lost to Master Artisan Sect, then Ancient Sword Sect,

[06:05:00] and soon we'll have no one left to lose to.

[06:05:02] We might find some promising talent,

[06:05:04] but the two major sects have already snatched them up.

[06:05:07] While,

[06:05:08] don't underestimate these rogue cultivators.

[06:05:10] You never know if there might be hidden talents.

[06:05:12] You mean a genius?

[06:05:14] There aren't a lot of geniuses around.

[06:05:16] Smell the coffee.

[06:05:18] What kind of people do you think they are?

[06:05:22] What is it?

[06:05:24] Look, two seniors are there.

[06:05:25] Whoa, so impressive.

[06:05:27] So this is Illusion Formation?

[06:05:30] They're real seniors, so glad I'm here.

[06:05:32] This is the first time I've seen this.

[06:05:33] I do want to be recruited.

[06:05:35] Alright, everyone,

[06:05:36] if you've got Spiritual roots with two attributes,

[06:05:37] three attributes,

[06:05:38] or special spiritual roots,

[06:05:40] you should go with him later.

[06:05:42] If you're at the Qi Condensation Stage above Tenth Level,

[06:05:44] go with me.

[06:05:45] The rest of you

[06:05:46] wait here,

[06:05:48] someone will show you to the trials later.

[06:05:54] Another waste of a trip.

[06:06:08] Look,

[06:06:09] that old man comes here again.

[06:06:11] My relative who is recruited said,

[06:06:12] he comes every time,

[06:06:13] but he never makes it past the test.

[06:06:15] Years have passed, and he still doesn't know himself.

[06:06:19] A rogue cultivator with poor aptitude and no opportunities

[06:06:21] will find it extremely hard to reach

[06:06:24] beyond the tenth level on his own.

[06:06:35] What cultivation technique is this person using?

[06:06:38] Why is there a strange nip?

[06:06:41] It's pretty well-hidden.

[06:06:44] Unless you've got a spiritual sense that's reached a certain level.

[06:06:46] It's almost impossible to find out.

[06:06:48] I have a bad feeling.

[06:06:57] Wait,

[06:07:03] is there anyone here who knows about spiritual plants?

[06:07:08] Spiritual plants?

[06:07:10] I haven't really seen them much.

[06:07:11] I can't recognize them.

[06:07:14] Junior Mu,

[06:07:15] what brings you here?

[06:07:24] He's so knowledgeable!

[06:07:34] My herb garden needs more hands,

[06:07:36] you wanna join?

[06:07:40] Herb garden.

[06:07:41] After going through a lot,

[06:07:42] I'm going to start working in herb garden again.

[06:07:45] Newbie,

[06:07:46] what's your name?

[06:07:47] Fairy,

[06:07:48] my name is Han Li.

[06:07:50] Go.

[06:07:51] Wait, Junior Mu.

[06:07:52] Why?

[06:07:53] Anything wrong?

[06:07:54] Nothing serious,

[06:07:56] well...

[06:07:56] The initiation trials aren't finished yet.

[06:07:58] If you need more help,

[06:08:00] When I'm done here,

[06:08:01] - we... - Senior Feng,

[06:08:02] mind your own business.

[06:08:03] Go.

[06:08:22] Finally, all herds are handed out.

[06:08:26] I'd much rather spend ten days honing my sword skills,

[06:08:28] than working a single day here.

[06:08:32] How dare you say that!

[06:08:34] You've been a disciple for years,

[06:08:36] but your herb identification skills

[06:08:37] are worse than a newbie's.

[06:08:40] Don't tease me, Martial Uncle.

[06:08:42] As they say, every man has his ambition.

[06:08:45] Well, man,

[06:08:46] you do know a lot about herbs.

[06:08:49] What's your name?

[06:08:50] Han Li.

[06:08:53] This buddy is clearly a good man.

[06:08:56] You have a lot of potential.

[06:08:57] After you join our sect,

[06:08:58] I, Sun,

[06:08:59] will have your back.

[06:09:01] This man seems like a real man.

[06:09:04] Good.

[06:09:05] Martial Uncle Mu,

[06:09:07] has Drifting Cloud Sect been spreading medicine and helping out mortals like this?

[06:09:15] Yeah,

[06:09:16] it's said that, 80 years ago,

[06:09:18] one of our Supreme Elders

[06:09:19] came into human form

[06:09:21] and traveled through the mortal world,

[06:09:23] he was deeply moved by a family.

[06:09:26] After he returned,

[06:09:27] he started holding free clinics every year

[06:09:29] to help mortals in nearby towns.

[06:09:31] Honestly,

[06:09:33] they're some low-grade, discarded pills.

[06:09:35] There's no point in keeping them.

[06:09:37] We hand them out to help people in need.

[06:09:39] It would be a waste not to use it.

[06:09:46] Martial Uncle,

[06:09:47] today's job is finished,

[06:09:49] I'm meeting some juniors for some fun,

[06:09:51] so I'll take my leave now.

[06:09:55] Han,

[06:09:56] Come to me when you're free.

[06:10:04] This guy never takes anything seriously.

[06:10:09] What should we do about the upcoming Sword Testing Tournament?

[06:10:13] Why are you standing there?

[06:10:14] Go,

[06:10:15] I'll take you into the sect gate.

[06:10:21] May I ask how to address that senior?

[06:10:24] His last name is Sun,

[06:10:26] full name is...

[06:10:28] It's too complicated to pronounce,

[06:10:29] we all call him Sun Huo.

[06:10:33] At Drifting Cloud Sect,

[06:10:34] two Supreme Elders

[06:10:36] usually do their Closed Door Training at the main peak.

[06:10:39] Besides this, there are six grotesque peaks: Sky Spring,

[06:10:41] Flame Cloud,

[06:10:42] Hidden Sword,

[06:10:42] Mist Veil,

[06:10:43] White Phoenix

[06:10:44] and Fantasy Stone.

[06:10:46] Each one of them has

[06:10:47] two Core Formation cultivators as the main and deputy masters.

[06:10:54] Look, at the foot of the mountain,

[06:10:56] there is a subsidiary trading market

[06:10:58] where disciples often go to trade materials.

[06:11:02] You're a great listener.

[06:11:06] Alright.

[06:11:07] That's the main info.

[06:11:10] Well,

[06:11:11] let me show you around up ahead.

[06:11:22] If you have any other questions,

[06:11:24] look them up yourself at the library.

[06:11:28] What's the title of that book?

[06:11:31] Drifting Cloud Chronicles.

[06:11:33] Look,

[06:11:34] such a trivial matter,

[06:11:36] and they wrote such a thick volume.

[06:11:38] Supreme Elders seem to have a lot of free time.

[06:11:43] Greetings, Elder Feng.

[06:11:48] Martial Niece Mu,

[06:11:48] you may stand up.

[06:11:50] We'll be

[06:11:51] a close-knit group.

[06:11:53] The one behind you

[06:11:54] must be the new disciple who hasn't reported for duty yet, right?

[06:11:57] Kun filled me in on the situation today.

[06:11:59] I'm flattered, Elder.

[06:12:01] Yes,

[06:12:01] I'm taking him to meet the Sect Leader.

[06:12:04] I was at the council hall,

[06:12:07] and there was a talent

[06:12:10] with gold-attribute spiritual roots.

[06:12:12] Hidden Sword Peak and Flame Cloud Peak

[06:12:14] barely came to blows for this prodigy.

[06:12:16] I, old man,

[06:12:17] was asked to mediate in the dispute.

[06:12:19] Well then,

[06:12:20] he's determined to become my disciple.

[06:12:23] What should I do with it?

[06:12:25] Talent with gold-attribute spiritual roots.

[06:12:27] It's truly promising.

[06:12:29] It's late,

[06:12:30] let me test you.

[06:12:33] Yes.

[06:12:37] Qi Condensation Stage Tenth Level,

[06:12:39] you look quite young,

[06:12:41] it's okay, barely,

[06:12:42] What was your name?

[06:12:43] What spiritual roots do you possess?

[06:12:46] Master...

[06:12:47] Master Ancestor.

[06:12:48] Master Ancestor,

[06:12:49] my name is Han Li,

[06:12:50] and my spiritual roots

[06:12:51] are with wood, water, fire, and earth attributes.

[06:12:54] False Spiritual Roots?

[06:13:00] I guess he's going to say I can't reach Foundation Establishment.

[06:13:07] It doesn't matter,

[06:13:09] our sect

[06:13:09] is really good at alchemy,

[06:13:11] and other arts like talismans,

[06:13:13] magic tools refining, formations, and others.

[06:13:15] You possess False Spiritual Roots,

[06:13:17] but you've still got to keep cultivating yourself.

[06:13:18] Don't give up on your ambition to grow.

[06:13:21] If you end up making a big contribution to our sect one day,

[06:13:24] there's a chance you might get some Foundation Establishment Elixirs.

[06:13:27] Come with me.

[06:13:28] The Heart Trial Talisman test

[06:13:30] is a necessary procedure.

[06:13:32] If you make it,

[06:13:33] join Sky Spring Peak

[06:13:34] like Martial Niece Mu.

[06:13:36] Yes.

[06:13:37] Heart Trial Talisman is used to detect roots,

[06:13:40] I can cover it with my spiritual sense.

[06:13:49] Elder Feng asks me to instruct you.

[06:13:52] Would you rather tend the herb garden

[06:13:54] or learn alchemy with me?

[06:13:56] I'm slow-witted,

[06:13:58] and I don't want to bring trouble to you.

[06:14:00] I'd tend the herb garden here.

[06:14:05] Then I'll leave it in your hands.

[06:14:07] You just have to make sure you deliver a set amount of herbs each year.

[06:14:13] These are the token of the garden

[06:14:15] and methods of planting herbs.

[06:14:17] No mistakes, absolutely.

[06:14:19] I'll be doing regular inspections.

[06:14:21] Got it.

[06:14:22] Is there anything else, Martial Uncle?

[06:14:30] This

[06:14:32] is Dark Ice Art.

[06:14:34] It's easy to get through bottlenecks by cultivating it.

[06:14:36] If you run into any problems while cultivating,

[06:14:38] just let me know.

[06:14:46] But if the other wants to see me,

[06:14:49] tell him I'm having Closed Door Training.

[06:14:51] Remember,

[06:14:52] never let anyone enter here,

[06:14:53] especially that Feng.

[06:15:01] It takes in disciples of all kinds,

[06:15:02] and provides free medical treatment for mortals,

[06:15:05] the Drifting Cloud Sect

[06:15:07] is growing appealing to me.

[06:15:37] I find a safe place to stay.

[06:15:39] I'd have a rest,

[06:15:41] and figure out what to do tomorrow.

[06:16:25] Breathe in and out,

[06:16:28] and see it as one with the world around you.

[06:16:50] This batch of elixirs is urgently needed.

[06:16:52] After you get the herbs,

[06:16:54] go to make elixirs.

[06:16:54] As you command.

[06:17:18] Drifting Cloud Sect is so interesting.

[06:17:21] Other sects offer a magic tool or cultivation technique,

[06:17:23] but they

[06:17:25] give me a Ding.

[06:17:35] I get used to being a rogue cultivator,

[06:17:37] this sect life feels like

[06:17:39] ancient history.

[06:17:41] But,

[06:17:43] I'd set up

[06:17:44] a hidden cave to cultivate.

[06:17:47] This place seems perfect,

[06:17:49] but it could use a little refinement.

[06:17:57] The Spiritual Aura Confinement Formation is truly amazing.

[06:17:59] Now I don't have to worry about high-level cultivators finding me.

[06:18:03] Ever since we got back from Dark Underworld Place,

[06:18:05] he's been sleeping.

[06:18:07] It consumed so many Dark Beasts' essences and souls,

[06:18:09] and it's advancing to the next stage again?

[06:18:15] Alright,

[06:18:16] that's the cave for now,

[06:18:18] I can tidy it up later.

[06:18:20] I'm going to reach Nascent Soul,

[06:18:22] but there's still a lot to prepare.

[06:18:26] First,

[06:18:27] I'd get rid of Wind Spirit Energy,

[06:18:42] Extraction

[06:18:43] start.

[06:18:46] Great,

[06:18:48] it's locked up,

[06:18:49] now I just need some time to make it.

[06:18:52] (Episode 148 Upheaval in Outer Sea Season 5)

[06:18:56] (Watch with Headphones for Better Viewing Experience)

[06:19:10] The Wind Spirit Energy is like a tough nut to crack,

[06:19:13] it's hard to deal with.

[06:19:15] But I'm almost done with it.

[06:19:17] (Azure Essence Sword Art Manual)

[06:19:18] It's just a matter of time.

[06:19:23] Now I can see

[06:19:25] Azure Essence Sword Art Manual and Great Development Technique

[06:19:27] are both rare cultivation methods.

[06:19:29] I'm so lucky to

[06:19:30] have both of them.

[06:19:52] I must improve my skills of alchemy,

[06:19:55] since the Ninecurl Spirit Ginseng,

[06:19:57] Agate Horn and Demon Echo Grass

[06:19:58] are pretty rare in Tiannan.

[06:20:03] If I fail to refine them,

[06:20:05] all my previous efforts would be wasted.

[06:20:18] What a rare visitor!

[06:20:20] Are its wings hurt?

[06:20:25] There, you're fine now.

[06:20:26] (Social Talk in Sea of Stars Written)

[06:20:27] Oh,

[06:20:28] I've got this.

[06:20:33] I learned the demon language,

[06:20:34] and I know what it means.

[06:20:35] This beast hide records

[06:20:37] a demonic cultivation method called Swift Wind Nine Transformations.

[06:20:40] Unfortunately, without a demon's robust physique,

[06:20:42] human body can't take it.

[06:20:47] There is a secret method called Blood Shadow Evasion,

[06:20:49] by burning one's essence and blood,

[06:20:51] it can significantly boost your evasion speed.

[06:20:57] But you have to put magical power into the wings.

[06:21:01] Humans can't use it either,

[06:21:04] unless...

[06:21:09] What a coincidence!

[06:21:13] (Account Book)

[06:21:15] Good.

[06:21:16] Back to work then.

[06:21:20] Yes, Martial Uncle.

[06:21:22] I'd put on an act, at least.

[06:21:26] Luckily, I have these puppets to help,

[06:21:28] so it won't take too much time.

[06:21:35] Go back to the outside world.

[06:21:36] If you get hurt,

[06:21:38] come find me again.

[06:22:05] I finally got rid of

[06:22:06] Wind Spirit Energy,

[06:22:10] but I feel some impurities in my spiritual aura.

[06:22:13] I'm wondering if it'll affect my reaching Nascent Soul.

[06:22:16] I heard Drifting Cloud Sect's secret Soul Soothing Pill

[06:22:19] not only stabilizes one's soul,

[06:22:21] but also purges pill toxins and impurities from the body.

[06:22:25] Sadly, the ingredients are rare,

[06:22:26] so each pill is hard to get.

[06:22:27] Hello, is Senior Yuan here?

[06:22:32] Senior Yuan.

[06:22:34] Me,

[06:22:35] Sun Huo.

[06:22:37] It's him.

[06:22:38] Who is Senior Yuan?

[06:22:40] The old caretaker of this herb garden?

[06:22:56] Greetings, Senior Sun.

[06:22:58] I'm in charge of this herb garden.

[06:23:01] Oh,

[06:23:04] Little Han.

[06:23:08] Even better,

[06:23:09] buddy, I

[06:23:11] have an excellent business opportunity.

[06:23:15] Would you like to hear about it?

[06:23:23] Do you know what's most important in Drifting Cloud Sect?

[06:23:26] No,

[06:23:27] in the cultivation world,

[06:23:29] what's the most important thing?

[06:23:30] Senior Sun, what do you think?

[06:23:32] It's Spiritual Stone.

[06:23:36] As the saying goes,

[06:23:37] Money opens all doors;

[06:23:39] without money, you're stuck.

[06:23:42] Just like me,

[06:23:48] I'm a big fan of three-foot swords.

[06:23:51] Recently,

[06:23:52] I spent hundreds of Spiritual Stones

[06:23:54] on this top-grade magic tool.

[06:23:56] It's sharp, but it's a bit rigid.

[06:23:59] If I forged it, 100 Spiritual Stones would be enough.

[06:24:03] He got ripped by the shopkeeper.

[06:24:07] What a pity,

[06:24:08] I spend most of my time on cultivation,

[06:24:11] who has time to earn Spiritual Stones?

[06:24:13] But

[06:24:15] buddy,

[06:24:17] recently,

[06:24:18] I've found a great way to make money,

[06:24:22] which is

[06:24:24] hunting Snowcloud Fox.

[06:24:28] Snowcloud Foxes that have evolved into demon beasts

[06:24:31] are super popular with female disciples in our sect.

[06:24:33] If you catch one alive,

[06:24:35] and you can sell it

[06:24:36] at least for a hundred Spiritual Stones.

[06:24:38] How about it?

[06:24:40] A while back,

[06:24:41] I found one,

[06:24:42] unluckily,

[06:24:43] it ran away.

[06:24:46] But

[06:24:48] if I had 50-year-old Solomonseal as bait...

[06:24:53] Senior,

[06:24:55] so you came to borrow some herbs, right?

[06:25:00] There is indeed what you want,

[06:25:03] but I'm just a manager here.

[06:25:05] I don't have the authority to use them,

[06:25:07] or

[06:25:08] I can't justify myself.

[06:25:09] Well...

[06:25:12] He has a wide range of contacts

[06:25:13] and seems honest.

[06:25:15] It's just a small favor,

[06:25:16] and having an insider contact would be great.

[06:25:18] Senior, if you're short on funds,

[06:25:20] I had some savings before I joined our sect,

[06:25:23] I can lend you some,

[06:25:25] then you can buy Solomonseal in the market.

[06:25:29] Little Han,

[06:25:31] you're so generous.

[06:25:32] I'm in your debt.

[06:25:35] If I succeed,

[06:25:36] you'll get double payback.

[06:25:38] Trust me.

[06:25:39] I can

[06:25:40] definitely

[06:25:41] do it

[06:25:43] in three days,

[06:25:44] just three days.

[06:25:46] I'll get some good news for you.

[06:26:02] Damn it!

[06:26:03] That was careless!

[06:26:07] Little Han, I was careless.

[06:26:09] Let me explain.

[06:26:11] Well,

[06:26:12] that Snowcloud Fox moved so fast,

[06:26:14] it snatched the Solomonseal,

[06:26:15] and vanished in the blink of an eye.

[06:26:17] That was no ordinary Demonic Beast,

[06:26:19] it was a rare one.

[06:26:21] I couldn't accept it.

[06:26:22] That's why I borrowed

[06:26:24] a few Bewildering Formation Flags,

[06:26:27] but

[06:26:27] we still need one more person

[06:26:30] to operate the formation.

[06:26:32] Well,

[06:26:34] Little Han,

[06:26:35] why not join us,

[06:26:37] and you can be out for some fresh air.

[06:26:39] - Don't stay cooped up here. - Recently,

[06:26:40] I've been feeling restless and unsettled

[06:26:42] while I practice Great Development Technique lately,

[06:26:45] Have I hit a wall?

[06:26:47] Fine,

[06:26:48] a walk may clear my mind.

[06:26:50] As you invited me,

[06:26:52] let's go then.

[06:26:53] I'm quite curious

[06:26:55] what the Snowcloud Fox looks like.

[06:26:56] I knew you had good taste.

[06:26:58] Here's the flag.

[06:27:02] Don't worry,

[06:27:03] you won't make this trip for nothing.

[06:27:05] Okay.

[06:27:06] Let's get going.

[06:27:27] There it is.

[06:27:29] Move.

[06:27:56] Snowcloud Fox, let me catch you.

[06:28:08] Dead?

[06:28:12] Wasn't this formation

[06:28:13] supposed to trap the enemies?

[06:28:25] Its body is cold,

[06:28:27] and I can't feel its pulse.

[06:28:28] It seems totally dead.

[06:28:30] There must be something wrong with your formation.

[06:28:32] Foxes are always cunning.

[06:28:33] Be careful, it might be a trick.

[06:28:35] Senior Sun,

[06:28:36] should we dismantle this formation?

[06:28:38] What if there is really something wrong?

[06:28:41] This silly thing

[06:28:43] has really stopped breathing.

[06:28:44] All our efforts were wasted again.

[06:28:52] Watch out!

[06:28:54] Pure Spiritual Aura.

[06:28:55] Well,

[06:28:56] are you okay?

[06:28:59] Han, you're going the wrong way.

[06:29:00] Stay calm, Senior.

[06:29:02] That little trickster used a decoy,

[06:29:03] I'm tracking it with my magic tool.

[06:29:05] Quick!

[06:29:05] Follow Han.

[06:29:06] Go!

[06:29:35] Junior Han,

[06:29:36] he...

[06:29:37] he went through the wall.

[06:29:39] Earth Release Technique, you all don't know it?

[06:29:46] Well,

[06:29:46] let's just

[06:29:47] wait here.

[06:29:50] The spiritual aura

[06:29:52] is kinda similar to the Pure Spiritual Aura.

[06:29:55] Could it be

[06:29:56] another incarnation of a heavenly spiritual being?

[06:29:59] Welcome, my distinguished guest,

[06:30:01] why don't you come on in?

[06:30:58] You're actually a Core Formation cultivator.

[06:31:02] Your Qi-suppressing Spell is quite remarkable,

[06:31:05] I almost fell for it.

[06:31:10] My spiritual sense can't detect any spiritual aura.

[06:31:16] Senior, I didn't know you're cultivating here.

[06:31:18] My apologies.

[06:31:20] May I ask what's your name

[06:31:21] and your connection to the three sects of Cloudy Dream?

[06:31:28] A forgotten harbinger of doom

[06:31:30] is unworthy of a name.

[06:31:33] In this world,

[06:31:36] few people still remember me.

[06:31:42] Her cultivation level is off the charts...

[06:31:44] Why would she hide within the Mount Cloudy Dream?

[06:31:55] The stone chamber is made of Lazurite,

[06:31:58] which is also called Spirit-Absorbing Stone,

[06:32:00] an extremely rare material to refine tools.

[06:32:03] Besides brute force destruction,

[06:32:06] all magic or Magic Treasure's spiritual power

[06:32:08] is useless.

[06:32:11] So it's the perfect material

[06:32:12] for building prison cells.

[06:32:16] Lazurite?

[06:32:18] Why haven't I heard of it?

[06:32:22] Some things were only around in the uncivilized times.

[06:32:26] When exhausted,

[06:32:28] all things will fade away.

[06:32:30] humans

[06:32:31] are no different.

[06:32:34] All these years,

[06:32:36] you're the first living being I've met.

[06:32:40] Judging by the spiritual power trace,

[06:32:42] it seems like no one's been here for centuries.

[06:32:45] Yet she's been alive for so long,

[06:32:47] could she really be

[06:32:49] a Nascent Soul Evil?

[06:32:50] I've got some important stuff to take care of in our sect,

[06:32:52] so I can't stick around.

[06:32:53] If you need me to do anything,

[06:32:55] as long as it doesn't go against the natural order.

[06:32:56] I'm honored to do it.

[06:32:59] Senior, could you tell me

[06:33:02] how to leave here, please?

[06:33:03] Fellow, why you are

[06:33:05] rushing out of here so quickly?

[06:33:08] Fellow,

[06:33:09] it looks like your spiritual roots are holding you back.

[06:33:12] you'll labour hard to little avail while trying to reach Nascent Soul.

[06:33:15] How'd she know it?

[06:33:16] Destiny has brought you to this place.

[06:33:20] I have a treasure

[06:33:22] that might help you get to Nascent Soul.

[06:33:26] Treasure?

[06:33:30] Of course, we need to make a deal.

[06:33:33] Firstly,

[06:33:35] you must keep this place a secret for me.

[06:33:38] Secondly,

[06:33:40] do something for me.

[06:33:49] This is called Spirit Well Jade,

[06:33:52] which can help calm your mind

[06:33:54] when you try to reach Nascent Soul.

[06:33:57] For certain reasons,

[06:33:58] I can't leave this stone chamber.

[06:34:01] All you have to do

[06:34:03] is deliver this letter

[06:34:07] to the right person.

[06:34:11] Deliver the letter?

[06:34:14] Spirit Well Jade?

[06:34:17] Upheaval in Outer Sea Season 5 Episode 149

[06:34:21] Watch with Headphones for Better Viewing Experience

[06:34:30] Deliver the letter?

[06:34:32] I thought

[06:34:34] you wanted me to kill someone for you.

[06:34:36] I'm stuck here,

[06:34:38] I'd better focus on self-cultivation,

[06:34:40] how could I kill others

[06:34:42] and give up my peaceful life?

[06:34:46] If it's just delivering a letter,

[06:34:48] I'd be happy to help.

[06:34:57] The spiritual aura is abundant,

[06:34:58] and it's like that Pure Spiritual Aura.

[06:35:00] Well? Spirit Well Jade

[06:35:03] is a treasure that's about to have a Shapeshifting thing.

[06:35:07] If you cultivate with it,

[06:35:09] you'll get way better results with way less effort.

[06:35:13] I was right.

[06:35:15] The Snowcloud Fox got the jade's spiritual aura on it,

[06:35:18] which explains the traces of Pure Spiritual Aura.

[06:35:20] Well,

[06:35:22] the letter is also in the box,

[06:35:24] and there is another jade box

[06:35:26] on the stone platform behind me.

[06:35:28] Get it,

[06:35:30] and take the thing inside it.

[06:35:31] It's my token.

[06:35:33] Deliver it with the letter.

[06:35:40] If it's a token,

[06:35:42] why don't you go get it yourself, Senior?

[06:35:44] If I could get it myself,

[06:35:45] would I need your help?

[06:35:52] To be honest with you,

[06:35:53] Lazurite

[06:35:54] and Heavenly Fire Chains

[06:35:56] were all set up by me to confine myself.

[06:36:00] Why?

[06:36:02] In the past,

[06:36:05] I was also one of the top cultivators in Mount Cloudy Dream.

[06:36:13] I specialized in Shadow Execution Art,

[06:36:15] a profound cultivation method.

[06:36:17] But it has a fatal flaw.

[06:36:21] Once you master it,

[06:36:23] it might cloud your mind,

[06:36:25] and breed bloodlust.

[06:36:27] Back then,

[06:36:28] I believed I had a clear mind,

[06:36:30] and I was stronger than my peers.

[06:36:32] I made it through

[06:36:34] all the trials without a hitch.

[06:36:36] So I went ahead and tried this method,

[06:36:38] ignoring the warnings of others.

[06:36:40] But after I reached the Nascent Soul stage,

[06:36:42] I lost it and went crazy,

[06:36:44] which led to great damage.

[06:36:46] I was being hunted down,

[06:36:47] my spirit was severely damaged,

[06:36:49] and one of my arms was crippled.

[06:36:51] So,

[06:36:52] my cultivation partner and I decided

[06:36:54] to trap me in this stone chamber.

[06:36:56] He took the key to the Chains.

[06:37:00] We agreed that

[06:37:02] every now and then,

[06:37:03] he would check in to see how I was doing.

[06:37:06] A hundred years went by,

[06:37:09] but then,

[06:37:11] he broke his promise,

[06:37:12] never came back,

[06:37:14] and just vanished.

[06:37:17] I could only wait here

[06:37:19] alone day and night.

[06:37:22] Only by finding him,

[06:37:24] can the Chains be broken,

[06:37:26] then I won't be stuck here

[06:37:27] wasting away until the end of my days.

[06:37:30] Senior, you

[06:37:31] want me to deliver a letter to your cultivation partner.

[06:37:34] But after all these years,

[06:37:35] we're not sure if that senior

[06:37:37] is still alive.

[06:37:38] When he didn't show up that day,

[06:37:40] I figured

[06:37:41] something might've happened to him.

[06:37:44] But

[06:37:45] he was actually pretty competent in Tiannan.

[06:37:47] I guess that won't happen.

[06:37:49] At that time,

[06:37:50] we agreed that

[06:37:51] even if something happened to him,

[06:37:55] he'd have entrusted the key

[06:37:57] to his direct disciples.

[06:38:00] It's alright if you can find them.

[06:38:07] Pathetic, isn't it?

[06:38:10] What's the point of striving to Nascent Soul?

[06:38:13] I end up meeting such an end.

[06:38:29] If she's telling the truth,

[06:38:31] she did experience...

[06:38:36] That's it!

[06:38:37] Tear the talisman,

[06:38:39] and hand me the box.

[06:38:50] Sorry,

[06:38:52] I've been stuck here for too long,

[06:38:54] got a little carried away just now.

[06:38:56] Go ahead,

[06:38:58] tear the talisman,

[06:38:59] take the token,

[06:39:00] then you may go.

[06:39:02] I've already

[06:39:03] given you the extremely rare treasure,

[06:39:06] Spirit Well Jade.

[06:39:09] What are you waiting for?

[06:39:20] Sure.

[06:39:22] But I've still got a few questions,

[06:39:24] and I'm hoping you can fill me in, Senior.

[06:39:26] Stop.

[06:39:27] What are you doing?

[06:39:29] No,

[06:39:30] stay back.

[06:39:32] I knew something was off.

[06:39:34] What are you doing?

[06:39:39] Don't come any closer.

[06:39:47] The deal seemed fair,

[06:39:49] and her story seemed normal,

[06:39:52] but she dragged me into this secret chamber,

[06:39:55] she's definitely not a good guy.

[06:40:03] It's toxic mist.

[06:40:59] This is her true form.

[06:41:01] Is she

[06:41:03] a Cadaver Demon?

[06:41:06] I only saw this evil demon in ancient records.

[06:41:08] Only a Nascent Soul cultivator with Heavenly Spiritual Roots,

[06:41:10] wood attribute, or earth attribute,

[06:41:12] can form this when he's dying

[06:41:13] with a ton of resentment.

[06:41:17] It has intelligence

[06:41:18] and can cultivate its previous method.

[06:41:20] So the prohibition can't kill it,

[06:41:22] only restrain it temporarily.

[06:41:25] Cadaver Demon's body is super tough,

[06:41:27] only True Fire above the Nascent Soul stage

[06:41:28] can refine it.

[06:41:32] Its essence and soul must be in this box.

[06:41:35] Could it not be completely suppressed,

[06:41:37] so that its consciousness still remains in the body?

[06:41:40] Fine,

[06:41:41] these are beyond what I can do now.

[06:41:43] I'd better find a way out.

[06:41:55] I almost forgot about you.

[06:41:57] You're quite clever,

[06:41:59] found yourself a perfect hiding spot.

[06:42:04] You're a tough survivor, aren't you?

[06:42:07] Staying with Cadaver Demon,

[06:42:09] you're still alive and kicking,

[06:42:11] it's unbelievable.

[06:42:14] Wait,

[06:42:15] living being?

[06:42:38] Who on earth are you?

[06:42:40] A low-level demon

[06:42:42] can't use that shape-shifting attack like that.

[06:42:44] Who am I?

[06:42:46] We'd been talking for so long,

[06:42:48] now you can't recognize me?

[06:42:57] All these years,

[06:42:59] you're the first living being

[06:43:02] I've met.

[06:43:03] When did it start confusing me?

[06:43:05] I didn't realize

[06:43:06] that nothing alive could exist here.

[06:43:07] Well?

[06:43:08] Attacked by my Shadow Execution Art

[06:43:11] is quite good, right?

[06:43:18] This technique is truly sinister,

[06:43:20] It can mess with how a person sees things,

[06:43:22] and even fool my current spiritual sense.

[06:43:25] No matter what technique it is,

[06:43:27] only one of us

[06:43:28] can walk away alive.

[06:44:36] What kind of spiritual aura is it?

[06:44:38] It's impossible to touch or break.

[06:45:02] Little boy,

[06:45:03] don't be anxious.

[06:45:06] I'm gonna show you my ability now.

[06:45:19] The spiritual aura is alive.

[06:45:21] It's blocking my magical power.

[06:45:24] No,

[06:45:25] it's not an illusion.

[06:45:27] Now I'm in trouble.

[06:45:51] Close your eyes,

[06:45:52] little boy,

[06:45:54] have a sweet dream.

[06:45:59] I'll stay here with you

[06:46:02] for a long,

[06:46:04] long time.

[06:46:17] I can move now.

[06:46:23] That was close.

[06:46:25] What happened to the Ruyi Scepter?

[06:46:28] Could the wolf

[06:46:29] be the tool spirit of the Ruyi Scepter?

[06:46:32] What are you doing?

[06:46:36] No,

[06:46:37] impossible.

[06:46:38] You're...

[06:46:39] This is...

[06:46:40] No.

[06:46:42] Soul Replacement.

[06:47:01] The aura...

[06:47:02] It turned back into a low-level demonic beast.

[06:47:04] The tool spirit must have quite a history.

[06:47:05] It can act on itself.

[06:47:39] The body I just possessed

[06:47:43] is a bit

[06:47:45] unusual for me.

[06:47:47] You're female...

[06:47:49] Female.

[06:47:52] I'm a creature with intelligence,

[06:47:54] you could say 'miss',

[06:47:57] that would be more polite.

[06:47:59] No matter what gender you are,

[06:48:01] you would tell me

[06:48:02] what you are, right?

[06:48:03] What am I?

[06:48:05] I'm the tool spirit of the Ancient Treasure

[06:48:08] you've been holding?

[06:48:12] Tool spirit.

[06:48:14] I know you're a tool spirit.

[06:48:17] But I've never heard of a tool spirit replacing soul,

[06:48:19] let alone one that can speak human language.

[06:48:24] There's plenty you haven't seen.

[06:48:27] What a carry-on!

[06:48:32] What are you doing?

[06:48:35] It looks like there's a connection between them.

[06:48:38] I'm just wondering,

[06:48:40] since you've got the Spiritual Fox,

[06:48:42] this Ruyi Scepter probably isn't useful now.

[06:48:44] If I crush it,

[06:48:45] what do you think will happen?

[06:48:51] No more tests.

[06:48:54] I'd go with it.

[06:48:59] Since I've been a tool spirit for too long,

[06:49:06] I've been inseparable from it.

[06:49:10] So,

[06:49:11] as long as I have the Ruyi Scepter,

[06:49:13] she is not a problem.

[06:49:17] There are just so many things about this that don't add up.

[06:49:19] I was tricked twice before,

[06:49:21] so there's no way I'm falling for it this time.

[06:49:31] (Episode 150 Upheaval in Outer Sea Season 5)

[06:49:35] (Watch with Headphones for Better Viewing Experience)

[06:49:53] Fellow,

[06:49:54] do you have any extra clothes?

[06:50:06] I'm sure you've got a lot of questions for me.

[06:50:10] First,

[06:50:10] how to address me?

[06:50:12] Call me Silvermoon.

[06:50:13] Where am I from?

[06:50:15] I can't quite remember.

[06:50:16] She looks mature,

[06:50:17] but she acts like a child.

[06:50:19] - Is this a side effect of Soul Replacement? - I don't know why,

[06:50:21] but I only have some fragmented memories left.

[06:50:23] Though it's a bit...

[06:50:31] I still remember

[06:50:33] that I'm Silvermoon,

[06:50:36] a member of the wolf clan.

[06:50:38] Silvermoon Wolf Clan,

[06:50:40] it seems that I haven't seen it in any records.

[06:50:44] As for the rest,

[06:50:47] I'll try to remember the rest.

[06:50:50] If she's really the tool spirit of Ruyi Scepter,

[06:50:52] Silvermoon Wolf Clan, was trapped in the Void Heaven Ding.

[06:50:55] It looks like

[06:50:57] there's some pretty amazing story here.

[06:50:59] What about tool spirit's Soul Replacement?

[06:51:01] It's not Soul Replacement.

[06:51:03] If a tool spirit had such a strong ability,

[06:51:06] the cultivation world would've fallen into chaos long ago.

[06:51:09] This is just something that our Silvermoon Wolf Clan is naturally good at.

[06:51:12] Soul

[06:51:13] Devour.

[06:51:20] If it's not a Spiritual Fox,

[06:51:23] it's naturally connected to our Silvermoon Wolf bloodline.

[06:51:27] No one can say for sure

[06:51:29] that it'll definitely succeed.

[06:51:31] This fox was possessed by Cadaver Demon's separated soul,

[06:51:34] and its divine power has been greatly weakened.

[06:51:36] It does

[06:51:38] sort of make sense.

[06:51:41] Fellow Han,

[06:51:42] you're definitely wise and open-minded.

[06:51:44] I'm so impressed.

[06:51:46] No need for flattery.

[06:51:49] There're still many unanswered questions,

[06:51:52] but the main issue is,

[06:51:54] that you've got a physical form,

[06:51:56] what to do next?

[06:52:02] If I told you,

[06:52:04] I want to leave you,

[06:52:06] and cultivate myself.

[06:52:07] Fellow,

[06:52:09] you wouldn't kill me for it, would you?

[06:52:15] It depends on how you do it.

[06:52:18] But,

[06:52:19] it seems like you're an expert in evasion cultivation techniques.

[06:52:22] Back then, at the Void Heaven Hall,

[06:52:23] how did an Initial-Stage Core Formation cultivator like me capture you?

[06:52:26] I'm just a tool spirit,

[06:52:28] I can't make the vessel possessing me

[06:52:31] fly for too long.

[06:52:34] If I wanted to leave there,

[06:52:37] the only way was to get carried out by a cultivator.

[06:52:43] Just think of that day, I'm so furious!

[06:52:46] That Ding finally split

[06:52:49] with a small crack.

[06:52:51] I flew out,

[06:52:53] I couldn't even see anything else

[06:52:55] but

[06:52:56] six Nascent Soul old men there

[06:52:59] were trying to ambush me.

[06:53:01] There are six,

[06:53:02] six!

[06:53:04] - She knows the details of that day so well - I dodged here and there,

[06:53:06] - she is... - then I finally saw,

[06:53:07] indeed the tool spirit.

[06:53:09] there are

[06:53:12] three Core Formation cultivators.

[06:53:16] You mean,

[06:53:17] you let me get this Ruyi Scepter,

[06:53:20] because

[06:53:21] you're caught by a Core Formation cultivator,

[06:53:23] it would be easier to escape later, right?

[06:53:28] But weren't there two others there?

[06:53:30] Why me?

[06:53:34] One was wearing a mask,

[06:53:36] so ugly,

[06:53:40] while the other

[06:53:41] was dour,

[06:53:43] so scary.

[06:53:46] As for you,

[06:53:49] you're average-looking,

[06:53:54] but you're a pretty

[06:53:58] normal person there.

[06:54:02] I see.

[06:54:03] But,

[06:54:04] you'd better save the compliments for someone else.

[06:54:07] The last question,

[06:54:09] all these years, you didn't escape,

[06:54:11] but hid in the storage pouch.

[06:54:13] You've got to be there

[06:54:16] for every single thing I do.

[06:54:21] Yes,

[06:54:23] all your experiences over the years,

[06:54:25] techniques, and Magic Treasures, I've seen them all.

[06:54:30] All of them?

[06:54:32] Yes,

[06:54:33] including that miraculously powerful

[06:54:36] Little Green Bottle.

[06:54:42] As you dare to say it openly,

[06:54:46] let's get straight to the point.

[06:54:48] Give me a reason not to kill you.

[06:54:52] Fellow Han,

[06:54:53] you've held back until now to move,

[06:54:54] that exceeds my expectations.

[06:54:56] It shows you can tell the difference between kindness and enmity.

[06:55:00] If I hadn't blocked that fox demon's attack,

[06:55:04] I guess you wouldn't have given me any chance at all.

[06:55:07] Right,

[06:55:08] but if you can't convince me quickly,

[06:55:11] I'll still kill you.

[06:55:14] Okay,

[06:55:16] I do like the way you do things.

[06:55:19] If you weren't someone who made quick decisions in battle,

[06:55:21] you wouldn't last long in the cultivation world.

[06:55:25] If those powerful figures

[06:55:27] know about such a heaven-defying artifact,

[06:55:29] it'd only bring endless disaster

[06:55:31] to you and the people around you.

[06:55:33] I don't want the person to die,

[06:55:37] as I just serve him as my master.

[06:55:40] As your master?

[06:55:42] What do you mean?

[06:55:47] You don't want your Natal Magic Treasure to lack its tool spirit.

[06:55:53] Well,

[06:55:54] I can transfer my spirit from the Ruyi Scepter

[06:55:58] to this sword, and be its tool spirit.

[06:56:03] This way,

[06:56:04] the sword's power will increase a lot,

[06:56:06] and you'll decide

[06:56:09] whether I live or die.

[06:56:13] It's a deal with guaranteed profit.

[06:56:15] Fellow Han,

[06:56:17] I guess you'd accept it, right?

[06:56:27] It's likely not easy to find a sentient tool spirit like me.

[06:56:36] And spirit separating from the tool is extremely painful.

[06:56:39] I finally make this decision.

[06:56:41] Fellow Han,

[06:56:43] I do hope you can accept this offer.

[06:56:47] If a tool spirit serves me as its master,

[06:56:49] our minds will be connected,

[06:56:51] I can determine its life or death,

[06:56:52] and there'll be no need to worry about information leaks.

[06:56:54] My Natal Magic Treasure does need a spirit tool.

[06:57:00] If I were to trust blindly

[06:57:02] things that only benefited me,

[06:57:04] I'd be dead by now.

[06:57:06] Fellow Silvermoon,

[06:57:07] you must have your own motives.

[06:57:14] To be honest,

[06:57:17] my vague memories

[06:57:20] whisper that if,

[06:57:22] one day,

[06:57:23] I regain my physical body

[06:57:26] and cultivate a secret art,

[06:57:30] then when the master of the tool I inhabit

[06:57:31] reaches to Deity Transformation,

[06:57:35] and right when he ascends to the upper realm,

[06:57:37] I will regain my memories

[06:57:40] and attain true freedom.

[06:57:42] So,

[06:57:43] before that,

[06:57:46] I'll support you with all my might.

[06:57:48] You

[06:57:49] have got the priceless treasure, Little Green Bottle,

[06:57:52] so you're probably a cultivator who can fulfill my wish.

[06:57:56] Am

[06:57:58] I right?

[06:58:05] I, Silvermoon,

[06:58:06] will put all my future on you,

[06:58:08] from now on,

[06:58:11] be loyal to you,

[06:58:12] serve at your command,

[06:58:13] I'll never betray you.

[06:58:22] If one day,

[06:58:23] you meet danger,

[06:58:25] I'll protect you until I die before you.

[06:58:29] Now

[06:58:30] my life will be a blast.

[06:58:33] Its essence and soul is still sealed in that box,

[06:58:36] while the remnant soul in the Spiritual Fox,

[06:58:38] was devoured by Silvermoon.

[06:58:40] With all the suppression,

[06:58:42] I doubt it'll cause any problems.

[06:58:44] But the outer shell is indestructible,

[06:58:47] and there's no good way to refine it for now.

[06:58:50] I'd just leave it here,

[06:58:52] and deal with it later.

[06:58:55] Fine,

[06:58:57] your first mission

[06:58:58] is to find the way out,

[06:59:00] it'd be a piece of cake for you, right?

[06:59:01] Leave it to me, Master.

[06:59:04] Your advice is appreciated.

[06:59:12] Well,

[06:59:13] will Junior Han get it?

[06:59:18] That fox demon is so cunning,

[06:59:20] it's not so easy.

[06:59:21] While,

[06:59:22] Junior Han's got a lot up his sleeve,

[06:59:24] he knows Tracking Art and Earth Release Technique.

[06:59:26] Could it be that Junior Han

[06:59:29] is the descendant of some important figure?

[06:59:35] Junior Han,

[06:59:43] you caught it!

[06:59:45] Well done, Han.

[06:59:47] Mission accomplished.

[06:59:48] This little creature is so sneaky,

[06:59:50] it kept running inside.

[06:59:53] If it hadn't used up all its spiritual power,

[06:59:55] it probably would have escaped.

[06:59:57] Look,

[06:59:58] it's really a rare species.

[07:00:00] Heterochromia iridum.

[07:00:01] It's stunning.

[07:00:02] Right.

[07:00:03] We'd better keep a close watch,

[07:00:05] don't let it escape again.

[07:00:07] No worries,

[07:00:09] I've got it under control.

[07:00:11] With this Puffy Clouds Pouch,

[07:00:13] let's see how can you run now.

[07:00:17] Thanks to Han's help,

[07:00:20] we can finally catch it.

[07:00:22] Well,

[07:00:23] Han can take 50%,

[07:00:25] we'll split the rest,

[07:00:25] what do you think?

[07:00:26] - Good. - Good.

[07:00:28] We'll follow your lead on this.

[07:00:31] But it's getting late,

[07:00:33] let's sell it ASAP.

[07:00:36] My apologies, seniors,

[07:00:37] I'd tend the herb garden,

[07:00:39] I shall return to the sect now.

[07:00:40] We can share drinks when we're free.

[07:00:49] It went so well this time.

[07:00:52] Now it can't escape.

[07:00:53] - Yes. - Right.

[07:01:07] You're so quick.

[07:01:20] Thanks to your excellent planning.

[07:01:23] But those people

[07:01:24] dared to put me in inferior magic tool,

[07:01:27] they looked down on me.

[07:01:31] I guess they haven't noticed I'm not there.

[07:01:36] Now,

[07:01:37] I guess they will be disappointed again.

[07:01:42] Alright,

[07:01:42] let's go,

[07:01:44] and buy some materials

[07:01:46] that Soul Transferring Formation needs.

[07:01:48] The temporary Prohibition isn't a long-term solution.

[07:01:53] Well, Master,

[07:01:54] you'd keep that Cadaver Demon well,

[07:01:57] it'll be of great use,

[07:01:59] even if it's not easy to refine.

[07:02:01] Its residual soul is gone, so it won't cause any trouble.

[07:02:03] You can deal with it after reaching Nascent Soul.

[07:02:06] And,

[07:02:07] don't let me get too far from you,

[07:02:08] or the spiritual connection between the tool spirit and Magic Treasure will be damaged.

[07:02:12] And...

[07:02:14] Luckily, the few missing materials aren't too rare.

[07:02:17] The sect's market has everything we need.

[07:02:20] I'd finish transferring the tool spirit now.

[07:02:32] Are you ready?

[07:02:35] Let's do this.

[07:02:53] Tool spirit transferring

[07:02:54] is really tricky.

[07:02:56] If something goes wrong,

[07:02:58] the tool spirit will vanish completely.

[07:03:09] Hope she can make it.

[07:03:37] Did

[07:03:38] she fail?

[07:03:57] That is...

[07:04:03] Succeed!

[07:04:15] Wait,

[07:04:17] you...

[07:04:19] It's me,

[07:04:21] Silvermoon.

[07:04:29] (Episode 151 Upheaval in Outer Sea Season 5)

[07:04:33] (Watch with Headphones for Better Viewing Experience)

[07:04:43] Wait.

[07:04:44] You...

[07:04:48] It's me,

[07:04:50] Silvermoon.

[07:04:52] I can be an adorable girl,

[07:04:59] and,

[07:05:01] I can also be a sophisticated

[07:05:05] noblewoman.

[07:05:14] I was trapped in

[07:05:17] endless darkness,

[07:05:19] all alone,

[07:05:23] but now,

[07:05:25] I can finally start over.

[07:05:30] Let's get to the bottom of

[07:05:32] where I come from.

[07:05:34] Master.

[07:05:48] Master?

[07:05:52] Fair enough.

[07:05:54] You are

[07:05:55] my tool spirit,

[07:05:57] but you don't need to call me Master.

[07:06:03] What should I call you?

[07:06:07] Young Master?

[07:06:20] Just call me Han.

[07:06:23] Yes, Master.

[07:06:24] Understood, Master.

[07:06:28] Have you been so talkative?

[07:06:30] I'd been trapped in the Ding for way too long.

[07:06:34] How do we do?

[07:06:36] Tell me.

[07:06:37] It's... You tell him...

[07:06:38] I can't do it.

[07:06:41] You tell him

[07:06:42] I'm too shy, I...

[07:06:44] Hi, Senior Wang, Senior Sun.

[07:06:48] Hi, Junior Han.

[07:06:49] Hello, Han.

[07:06:52] You tell him.

[07:06:54] My apologies.

[07:06:58] It can't be that

[07:07:00] something's happened to the Snowcloud Fox?

[07:07:06] You're really good at playing dumb.

[07:07:11] Well, it's my bad.

[07:07:14] That creature was lost under my watch,

[07:07:16] I'll make it up to you.

[07:07:19] I borrowed

[07:07:21] Spiritual Stones from you.

[07:07:23] It's all I've got for now, take it, please.

[07:07:24] No worries.

[07:07:25] I'll have Closed Door Training later, trying to reach Foundation Establishment.

[07:07:27] And I'm going to be at the top of the list

[07:07:29] in the Sword Testing Tournament later,

[07:07:31] then I can earn Spiritual Stones to repay you.

[07:07:35] Sword Testing Tournament?

[07:07:37] Junior Han, you don't know about Sword Testing Tournament?

[07:07:39] Outer and Inner disciples in our sect

[07:07:43] are all talking about it.

[07:07:46] Also,

[07:07:47] it's the biggest celebration

[07:07:49] of Mount Cloudy Dream's three sects.

[07:07:50] Han barely talked with other disciples in our sect,

[07:07:53] so it's no surprise he wouldn't know.

[07:07:54] Let's tell him about it.

[07:07:57] Come on.

[07:07:59] People who will be there to witness the ceremony

[07:08:01] are all Core Formation cultivators,

[07:08:02] they're not usually seen on ordinary days.

[07:08:04] It's our chance to make a name for ourselves.

[07:08:08] Buddies, do you know

[07:08:10] what's key to a sect's success or failure?

[07:08:13] You, please.

[07:08:14] I think the two most important things

[07:08:16] are Supreme Elder's ability

[07:08:18] and the talent of the young disciples.

[07:08:21] Exactly,

[07:08:23] you see,

[07:08:24] the Sword Testing Tournament

[07:08:25] is organized by Mount Cloudy Dream's three sects

[07:08:26] to pick the most talented disciples.

[07:08:30] No matter what your background or cultivation level is,

[07:08:32] as long as you're under 30 years old,

[07:08:35] you're good to go.

[07:08:36] And,

[07:08:37] if you can make it to the top ten,

[07:08:39] you'll get the qualification for the Spirit Liquid Eyewash Ceremony.

[07:08:43] Junior Han,

[07:08:44] you're in your mid-20s,

[07:08:47] so you're good to go.

[07:08:48] Right.

[07:08:49] The Spirit Liquid Eyewash Ceremony?

[07:08:50] Could it be that the tournament's prize has something to do with

[07:08:53] Spirit Well Tree?

[07:08:56] Spirit Liquid Eyewash Ceremony

[07:08:57] needs the Sacred Tree Nectar,

[07:08:58] so it's also a way for

[07:09:01] Drifting Cloud Sect,

[07:09:02] Ancient Sword Sect,

[07:09:03] and Master Artisan Sect

[07:09:04] to share the Sacred Tree Nectar.

[07:09:07] If one can beat the other two sects in the tournament,

[07:09:10] I'll get half of the nectar.

[07:09:14] Exactly.

[07:09:15] The top-ranked contestants

[07:09:16] will get top magic tools.

[07:09:18] The champion

[07:09:21] will get a top Soul Soothing Pill

[07:09:23] that's refined by Supreme Ancestor Cheng.

[07:09:26] With it, you'll be accepted by any Core Formation cultivator's disciple.

[07:09:30] But

[07:09:31] you must secure a top ranking

[07:09:32] in the preliminary sect trials.

[07:09:35] Soul Soothing Pill.

[07:09:36] Spirit Well Tree.

[07:09:38] I've been searching for them forever, but no luck.

[07:09:40] Sword Testing Tournament.

[07:09:41] It's a good chance.

[07:09:43] Master, you're really into Sword Testing Tournament,

[07:09:47] and it's all for the Spirit Well Tree.

[07:09:49] The three sects value the sacred tree so much,

[07:09:52] they've jointly set formations for it.

[07:09:55] Let alone be close to it,

[07:09:57] I can't even find it in Mount Cloudy Dream.

[07:10:00] Now that I have the rare chance to see it,

[07:10:03] I can't pass it up.

[07:10:06] Indeed.

[07:10:08] The two disciples said that

[07:10:10] using the sacred tree's nectar,

[07:10:13] and other precious ingredients,

[07:10:15] one can refine the legendary Brightsight Water.

[07:10:18] This water can make one's eyes see through stone and fog.

[07:10:23] What a pity,

[07:10:25] it only works for disciples at Qi Condensation and Foundation Establishment stage.

[07:10:28] Otherwise,

[07:10:30] those higher-ups

[07:10:31] wouldn't have offered it as a prize.

[07:10:34] But you're acting like you're at Qi Condensation stage.

[07:10:37] If you defeat those Foundation Establishment disciples,

[07:10:40] wouldn't that seem too dramatic?

[07:10:46] There're always members of noble families participating in this kind of competition.

[07:10:49] Using their family history and background,

[07:10:51] it's not too hard to make it into the top ten.

[07:10:53] But claiming the first place

[07:10:55] would be too flashy.

[07:10:59] I'll play it by ear.

[07:11:06] Your concern is so different from those of others.

[07:11:09] But it's good.

[07:11:10] If we miss such a good chance,

[07:11:13] it's quite difficult

[07:11:15] to be close to the Spirit Well Tree.

[07:11:16] If I can get the Sacred Tree Nectar and Soul Soothing Pill,

[07:11:19] it would be great.

[07:11:21] First, I've got to pass the preliminary test.

[07:11:36] Martial Uncle.

[07:11:41] I heard

[07:11:42] you're participating in Sword Testing Tournament's sect trials?

[07:11:45] Yes,

[07:11:46] Martial Uncle Mu, do you have any advice?

[07:11:50] Nothing much.

[07:11:51] It's a tournament,

[07:11:53] the more you practice, the better.

[07:11:56] Just do your best,

[07:11:57] and don't worry too much about the rankings.

[07:11:59] Otherwise, you might mess up your foundation.

[07:12:01] Thanks for your guidance.

[07:12:02] I understand.

[07:12:05] I'm going to

[07:12:05] watch the competition too,

[07:12:07] I can give you a ride as we're heading in the same direction.

[07:12:10] Thank you.

[07:12:13] Will you also join in, Martial Uncle Mu?

[07:12:15] Each peak has reserved slots

[07:12:17] that can skip this round.

[07:12:18] I won't join the sect trials.

[07:12:35] Hi,

[07:12:36] Junior Mu,

[07:12:38] it's been a while.

[07:12:39] How's it going?

[07:12:40] Couldn't be better,

[07:12:41] none of your concern.

[07:12:42] Let's go.

[07:12:43] Junior,

[07:12:44] did I do something to upset you?

[07:12:47] Regarding our cultivation partnership,

[07:12:49] both our families' elders

[07:12:50] have agreed.

[07:12:51] Junior,

[07:12:54] why do you

[07:12:55] keep me at arm's length?

[07:12:58] I see,

[07:12:59] no wonder this guy has been stalking her.

[07:13:02] It's the elders' arrangement,

[07:13:03] but I can't accept it.

[07:13:05] When

[07:13:08] your cultivation reaches my level,

[07:13:09] try to talk to me about being cultivation partners.

[07:13:11] Otherwise,

[07:13:12] don't you dare lay a finger on me.

[07:13:15] Follow me!

[07:13:23] Interesting.

[07:13:24] Who's that man following Martial Uncle Mu?

[07:13:26] I've never seen him before.

[07:13:28] Stop gossiping about people behind their backs.

[07:13:29] Seems like unrequited love.

[07:13:32] Han,

[07:13:34] see you later.

[07:13:37] Fellow,

[07:13:39] I remember you,

[07:13:40] we went into the sect in the same batch.

[07:13:43] I'm Du Dong.

[07:13:44] Greetings, fellow.

[07:13:47] Du,

[07:13:48] I'm Han Li.

[07:13:53] Fellow, you're a smart guy,

[07:13:55] Martial Uncle Mu brought you here today,

[07:13:59] I'm sure you get what this means.

[07:14:02] I won't say more than that.

[07:14:04] I want to ask

[07:14:06] if Martial Uncle Mu told you anything

[07:14:10] about the Sword Testing Tournament.

[07:14:15] Not really,

[07:14:16] could it be

[07:14:17] that you

[07:14:21] have heard some insider information?

[07:14:34] You must be joking, fellow.

[07:14:36] With my lowly status,

[07:14:37] how could I get insider information?

[07:14:40] Then,

[07:14:41] I'll take my leave.

[07:14:42] Alright.

[07:14:43] Maybe

[07:14:44] we can have a drink sometime.

[07:14:47] Han, why did you scare him off?

[07:14:50] Shouldn't we have played along

[07:14:52] to get the snake to come out of its hole?

[07:14:53] I don't know who he is,

[07:14:55] and it's better if he stays away from me.

[07:14:57] Elders are here.

[07:15:05] It looks like

[07:15:06] everyone's here.

[07:15:11] Before the Sword Testing Tournament,

[07:15:12] there'll be

[07:15:13] sect trials,

[07:15:16] to select participants for the tournament.

[07:15:19] We hope all of you

[07:15:20] can show off your best moves

[07:15:23] and bring

[07:15:24] glory to our sect.

[07:15:36] Sect trials?

[07:15:38] I've never participated in it.

[07:15:55] I've seen that woman in the city.

[07:15:58] A Core Formation cultivator at Middle Stage can set up three large formations,

[07:16:01] she's quite skilled.

[07:16:02] Han,

[07:16:04] that's Song Yu,

[07:16:06] a well-known Master of White Phoenix Peak.

[07:16:08] You're staring at her so blatantly.

[07:16:11] If Martial Uncle Mu found out about it,

[07:16:13] wouldn't it be problematic?

[07:16:14] I've been wondering why you've been missing for months,

[07:16:17] so you've been reached Foundation Establishment.

[07:16:18] Please don't tease me, a Qi Condensation cultivator.

[07:16:22] Han, it's nothing.

[07:16:25] Besides,

[07:16:26] I'm not that snobbish person, right?

[07:16:33] Silence!

[07:16:35] The trial begins now.

[07:16:37] First match,

[07:16:38] Sun Huo

[07:16:39] of Hidden Sword Peak,

[07:16:41] versus

[07:16:42] Jin Rong

[07:16:43] of White Phoenix Peak.

[07:16:45] Alright,

[07:16:46] I'm heading to

[07:16:46] the first match.

[07:16:48] If I rank well,

[07:16:49] then I can return your Spiritual Stones.

[07:17:00] (Versus)

[07:17:03] Foundation Establishment Duel,

[07:17:05] I haven't seen it in a bit.

[07:18:01] Sorry for offending you.

[07:18:09] Sun Huo of Hidden Sword Peak won!

[07:18:15] He reaches Foundation Establishment on his first try

[07:18:17] and competes with the cultivator at the same level with ease.

[07:18:20] This guy

[07:18:21] is so interesting.

[07:18:22] Good.

[07:18:29] There are indeed

[07:18:31] some real gems in the younger generation.

[07:18:34] But compared to you back then,

[07:18:36] they're not quite there.

[07:18:39] Well,

[07:18:40] let the youngsters

[07:18:41] have their trials.

[07:18:43] There's something regarding the Sword Testing Tournament,

[07:18:44] let's discuss it.

[07:18:55] Congrats, Martial Uncle Sun.

[07:18:57] - Congratulations. - Save it.

[07:18:59] - Congratulations. - Just a warm-up.

[07:19:00] Second match,

[07:19:02] Han Li of Sky Spring Peak,

[07:19:03] versus

[07:19:04] Lin Xuntong of Flame Cloud Peak.

[07:19:10] Who's he up against?

[07:19:11] Lin Xuntong.

[07:19:13] Senior Lin, you can do it!

[07:19:20] I never expected

[07:19:21] to face you in the first round.

[07:19:23] I know you have lots of skills,

[07:19:25] please go easy on me.

[07:19:27] Senior,

[07:19:28] I'm flattered.

[07:19:29] Please.

[07:19:31] Match

[07:19:33] begins.

[07:19:38] Look!

[07:19:39] Celestial Sun Flame.

[07:19:40] He's not even using talismans,

[07:19:41] instantly setting up

[07:19:42] a flame barrier.

[07:19:44] Flame Surge Bead.

[07:19:47] That's an amazing magic tool.

[07:19:49] That Han will lose, definitely.

[07:19:51] Incredible.

[07:19:55] I need to be careful not to hurt Junior Han.

[07:19:58] No, do we need to watch?

[07:20:07] This kind of combat

[07:20:09] brings back some memories.

[07:20:18] These

[07:20:19] should be enough.

[07:20:31] I need to be careful not to hurt him.

[07:20:55] Stop,

[07:20:56] I surrender.

[07:20:59] Lin Xuntong gave up.

[07:21:02] Han Li of Sky Spring Peak won.

[07:21:08] Oh my god.

[07:21:09] He is so rich.

[07:21:10] So extravagant.

[07:21:13] It's more than extravagant, it's spendthrift.

[07:21:16] Being rich

[07:21:17] is so great.

[07:21:18] He threw talismans around like they're free.

[07:21:19] Is he some young master from a noble clan?

[07:21:21] I've never heard of any noble Han family in Drifting Cloud Sect.

[07:21:23] That's how a rich man fights,

[07:21:25] - he just sweeps to victory - This guy...

[07:21:27] (Episode 152 Upheaval in Outer Sea Season 5)

[07:21:31] (Watch with Headphones for Better Viewing Experience)

[07:21:39] Han,

[07:21:40] I didn't expect you

[07:21:42] to be quite wealthy.

[07:21:44] Next match

[07:21:45] starts.

[07:22:08] Du Dong won.

[07:22:43] Senior,

[07:22:45] why're you hiding here again?

[07:22:47] I've been looking for you all over.

[07:22:52] This is my only hobby.

[07:22:56] Yeah,

[07:22:57] you're probably

[07:22:59] the best alchemist

[07:23:01] in the whole Tiannan.

[07:23:05] Great truths are always simple.

[07:23:07] The art of alchemy

[07:23:09] is using

[07:23:10] heaven and earth as a furnace.

[07:23:14] Adjust to the six factors in nature,

[07:23:16] and balance the five elements.

[07:23:18] No room for carelessness.

[07:23:25] Weren't you supposed to be

[07:23:27] at the Heavenly Dao Coalition headquarters?

[07:23:29] What happened?

[07:23:32] I met with two leaders of the Coalition.

[07:23:34] Things haven't been peaceful on Mulan's side lately,

[07:23:37] while Righteous and Demonic Sects are stirring up trouble.

[07:23:40] Something major is about to happen.

[07:24:05] Why hasn't a single Peak Master volunteered to go?

[07:24:08] I really don't know what to do.

[07:24:13] Indeed,

[07:24:14] we can't win,

[07:24:16] but we can't lose badly, either,

[07:24:18] or

[07:24:19] we'll be laughed at again.

[07:24:22] Who'd want to put themselves through that?

[07:24:27] It'd be great if it's the Elixir Testing Conference.

[07:24:35] Don't worry, Senior.

[07:24:37] I'm happy to lead the team this time.

[07:24:40] But,

[07:24:42] I'd like to choose the participating disciples.

[07:24:45] Well,

[07:24:46] thanks for leading the team, Junior.

[07:24:50] But this time,

[07:24:51] Master Artisan Sect and Ancient Sword Sect

[07:24:53] will send their Supreme Elders' direct disciples.

[07:24:56] It's highly possible that we can't win.

[07:24:59] How about sending some new disciples?

[07:25:02] I'm going to have a Closed Door Training for a long time.

[07:25:07] Senior,

[07:25:08] are you going to try reaching Nascent Soul?

[07:25:12] Yeah,

[07:25:13] ever since Junior Wei's incident,

[07:25:18] I've been

[07:25:19] the Drifting Cloud Sect's Top Core Formation Cultivator for over a hundred years,

[07:25:23] but I don't deserve it.

[07:25:26] Now I'm old,

[07:25:28] the time has come.

[07:25:30] But, don't worry, Junior.

[07:25:33] With the elixirs prepared by our master,

[07:25:35] there is

[07:25:37] at least a twenty percent chance of success.

[07:25:40] After this tournament,

[07:25:42] we'd seal the mountain gates of our sect.

[07:25:45] Senior, you just need to focus on your Closed Door Training,

[07:25:47] all six peaks

[07:25:49] will do the utmost to guard for you.

[07:25:52] I'm here to report,

[07:25:55] Elder,

[07:25:56] the final round of trials has concluded.

[07:25:58] I've recorded and brought the result.

[07:26:11] Is there something wrong?

[07:26:14] Check this out.

[07:26:18] This time, Sky Spring Peak has six qualifiers,

[07:26:21] including two at the Tenth Level of Qi Condensation.

[07:26:24] If I'm right,

[07:26:26] they just joined our sect a few years ago.

[07:26:29] Elder,

[07:26:31] the new disciple, Du Dong,

[07:26:33] has a top-level ice-attribute Ancestral Magic Tool.

[07:26:36] It got a crescent moon design on it.

[07:26:38] Combined with his cultivation method,

[07:26:39] he'd good at offense and defense,

[07:26:40] so he's quite formidable.

[07:26:41] Magic Tool?

[07:26:42] It's probably some heirloom that a reclusive noble family left behind.

[07:26:45] He is Du?

[07:26:48] I might know who he is.

[07:26:51] What about the other one?

[07:26:53] The other one is Han Li,

[07:26:54] he's got a lot of skills.

[07:26:56] I guess it's a rogue cultivator,

[07:26:58] and he even knows some martial arts from the mortal world.

[07:27:00] His main attack method is using

[07:27:02] talismans.

[07:27:05] Dalizmans?

[07:27:09] Talismans,

[07:27:10] lots of

[07:27:12] talismans.

[07:27:29] I've drawn so many,

[07:27:31] this should be enough.

[07:27:37] (Explosion)

[07:27:49] This movement...

[07:27:50] Weeping Soul wakes up.

[07:28:53] You little one,

[07:28:55] you scared me.

[07:28:56] You've ranked up after a nap?

[07:28:59] Devil Mark

[07:29:02] looks so fierce.

[07:29:05] Could this be the legendary...

[07:29:08] What is it?

[07:29:12] I can't quite remember it.

[07:29:20] This little thing

[07:29:21] is great at repelling evil spirits.

[07:29:25] But

[07:29:28] it absorbs too much Yin Qi,

[07:29:30] it's easy to lose its mind,

[07:29:32] and become extremely ferocious.

[07:29:34] It'd spend more time in the sun.

[07:30:02] Alright,

[07:30:03] it just ranked up,

[07:30:04] let it rest for a while.

[07:30:09] As for you,

[07:30:11] your cultivation seemed to dissipate quite a bit when transferring your soul.

[07:30:14] You need to recover it quickly.

[07:30:17] Okay,

[07:30:21] I got it.

[07:30:24] Cultivation,

[07:30:26] cultivation...

[07:30:28] But

[07:30:29] with your elixirs,

[07:30:31] it won't be difficult to recover this bit of cultivation.

[07:30:34] Also,

[07:30:35] the fox demon

[07:30:36] has some hidden abilities.

[07:30:43] You could say

[07:30:44] it's a case of 'swings and roundabouts.'

[07:30:48] But it never hurts to be better prepared.

[07:31:03] I was right, that Du Dong

[07:31:05] is also on the list of Drifting Cloud Sect.

[07:31:10] I'm afraid something unexpected

[07:31:12] will happen at this Sword Testing Tournament.

[07:31:14] There'll be a lot of people around,

[07:31:16] so to avoid drawing attention,

[07:31:18] I might need your help.

[07:31:21] Got it.

[07:31:28] Master.

[07:31:36] Congrats

[07:31:37] on passing the sect trials.

[07:31:39] Greetings, Martial Uncle.

[07:31:40] The sect orders you

[07:31:41] to go to White Phoenix Peak without delay.

[07:31:43] Elder Song will teach you herself.

[07:31:46] I understood.

[07:31:48] The three sects' competition

[07:31:49] is nothing like our internal trials.

[07:31:51] If it doesn't look good,

[07:31:53] it's better to concede than to get hurt.

[07:31:57] Thanks for your concern, Martial Uncle.

[07:31:58] I'll keep that in mind.

[07:32:05] Be prepared for it.

[07:32:06] I've got other things to take care of, so I'd go now.

[07:32:12] Why do I feel

[07:32:14] Martial Mu wanted to say more than that?

[07:32:17] I can't figure it out.

[07:32:18] Never mind,

[07:32:19] let's head to White Phoenix Peak

[07:32:21] and meet Elder Song.

[07:32:36] Isn't Junior Han only at Qi Condensation Stage?

[07:32:38] He looks pretty normal,

[07:32:39] how'd he even qualify for Sword Testing Tournament?

[07:32:46] You don't know it.

[07:32:48] I watched all of his matches,

[07:32:50] and the way he fought was so extravagant.

[07:32:52] He threw out talismans like they're free.

[07:32:56] Could he be a young master from a prominent family?

[07:32:59] Then I want to make friends with him.

[07:33:00] Instead of whispering about your fellow disciples here,

[07:33:03] you'd better spend more time cultivating.

[07:33:05] Yes, Master Ancestor.

[07:33:07] Come on in.

[07:33:44] It's a secret technique for checking one's mental state.

[07:33:46] It's interesting.

[07:33:48] You've joined our sect for not so long,

[07:33:50] but you'll

[07:33:52] represent our sect in Sword Testing Tournament.

[07:33:55] It's a rare opportunity.

[07:33:57] If you run into any problems while cultivating,

[07:34:00] just let me know.

[07:34:02] But you can only stay at

[07:34:04] the Worshiping Phoenix Pavilion for three days.

[07:34:06] How much you can understand

[07:34:08] depends on your enlightenment.

[07:34:09] As a Core Formation cultivator at the Middle Stage,

[07:34:10] she can perform this detection technique,

[07:34:12] and she's truly gifted.

[07:34:16] I got it, Elder.

[07:34:18] Do I have to stay here for three days?

[07:34:20] Can Silvermoon take care of spiritual plants well these three days?

[07:34:44] Han Li is clean,

[07:34:45] Du Dong is suspicious.

[07:34:47] So

[07:34:48] he's a descendant of the Du Family.

[07:34:51] Before the massacre,

[07:34:52] the Du Family had close ties with the Fu Family of Master Artisan Sect,

[07:34:55] if there is really a descendant,

[07:34:57] it'd make sense for him to join the Master Artisan Sect.

[07:35:00] So

[07:35:02] he's probably an undercover operative.

[07:35:04] While,

[07:35:05] Junior Song's Harmonic Mind

[07:35:08] has been more formidable.

[07:35:13] With her around,

[07:35:14] no infiltrator

[07:35:15] can escape her detection.

[07:35:46] The Ancient Sword Sect is here.

[07:35:48] Silence.

[07:36:00] Elder Fu,

[07:36:01] I didn't expect you to come out early to greet us.

[07:36:04] We're truly honored.

[07:36:07] Fellow Bai, you're here,

[07:36:08] I'd be here to welcome you.

[07:36:12] Alright,

[07:36:13] we know each other so well,

[07:36:14] let's skip the flattery.

[07:36:17] I'm wondering

[07:36:18] if I'm honored to meet Senior Lie Huo of your Master Artisan Sect?

[07:36:21] My master asked me to send his regards.

[07:36:28] Since our leaders

[07:36:30] had a competition,

[07:36:32] and your Leader Jin was a little better,

[07:36:34] our leader goes to explore the hidden realm

[07:36:35] with a few friends to relax.

[07:36:39] So he's not here.

[07:36:41] But,

[07:36:42] the other elders are here.

[07:36:47] Well, hasn't the Drifting Cloud Sect arrived yet?

[07:36:54] Speak of the devil.

[07:36:56] Great.

[07:37:19] (Episode 153 Return to Tiannan Season 1)

[07:37:25] (Watch with Headphones for Better Viewing Experience)

[07:37:31] Mutant Twilight Blue Eagle.

[07:37:33] It's only a fifth-rank demonic beast,

[07:37:34] but it can change its size,

[07:37:37] which makes it perfect as a sect's Spiritual Beast.

[07:37:40] White Phoenix Fairy,

[07:37:41] Since we parted at Fengri City,

[07:37:43] you've often been on my mind.

[07:37:45] Now that everyone's here,

[07:37:46] let's get started.

[07:37:49] Yeah, sure.

[07:37:50] Please.

[07:38:11] Young talents,

[07:38:14] - as you've earned your spots at the tournament,

[07:38:16] - Yes! - as you've earned your spots at the tournament,

[07:38:18] you must be the best

[07:38:21] - He's good at playing dumb. - of the new generation in your sect.

[07:38:25] Pay attention to the rules.

[07:38:27] Previous tournaments were just matches.

[07:38:30] Our Master Artisan Sect is hosting this time,

[07:38:33] let us

[07:38:34] add some new rules.

[07:38:50] We will

[07:38:53] still do the drawing for the one-on-one matches.

[07:38:57] Two people will be picked by lot to enter the arena,

[07:39:00] and

[07:39:05] the first to deliver this spirit pearl to the opponent's formation

[07:39:08] will be the winner.

[07:39:11] If you cause a fatal injury to your opponent

[07:39:14] or destroy the arena mechanisms,

[07:39:18] you'll be disqualified.

[07:39:20] Interesting.

[07:39:21] Master Artisan Sect is so desperate

[07:39:23] to claim this year's championship.

[07:39:26] This is the price for the championship,

[07:39:29] a Soul Soothing Pill, prepared by

[07:39:32] the three sects' elders.

[07:39:34] In addition

[07:39:35] the top ten participants

[07:39:37] will be rewarded with their choice of top-tier Magic Tool,

[07:39:41] and

[07:39:42] can enter the Spirit Well Tree.

[07:39:46] That's right.

[07:39:48] I can pass without showing off too much.

[07:39:51] Three Sects Sword Testing

[07:39:54] starts

[07:39:56] now.

[07:40:00] Congrats, Han,

[07:40:02] in a match like this,

[07:40:03] it's easy to hide your skills.

[07:40:09] (Ancient Sword Sect Meng Di vs. Master Artisan Sect Xie Lefeng)

[07:40:35] Good, well fought!

[07:41:00] Winner,

[07:41:01] Meng Di, Ancient Sword Sect.

[07:41:06] Wonderful.

[07:41:07] Nine Spirit Sword Body,

[07:41:10] I'd like to try to match with him someday.

[07:41:12] Why didn't you join Ancient Sword Sect before?

[07:41:14] Don't make fun of me.

[07:41:16] I could never learn the manners

[07:41:18] of those aristocratic families.

[07:41:19] Next match,

[07:41:20] Han Li, Drifting Cloud Sect,

[07:41:22] vs. Yao Feng, Ancient Sword Sect.

[07:41:25] Qi Condensation vs. Foundation Establishment,

[07:41:27] the gap is way too big.

[07:41:29] Has the Drifting Cloud Sect really hit rock bottom?

[07:41:31] Exactly.

[07:41:33] Han,

[07:41:34] your opponent is a Foundation Establishment cultivator,

[07:41:36] you'd better be careful,

[07:41:37] come back alive.

[07:41:42] (Drifting Cloud Sect Han Li vs. Ancient Sword Sect Yao Feng)

[07:41:46] Seriously?

[07:41:47] A Qi Condensation dares to step there?

[07:41:49] I heard he's some rich man.

[07:41:51] So he's just rich and lucky.

[07:41:54] It's all elite disciples from three sects,

[07:41:55] no flowery of fist with fancy footwork.

[07:41:57] He's out of the game.

[07:41:58] Tell me, White Phoenix Fairy,

[07:42:00] why made a Qi Condensation disciple at the Eleventh Level

[07:42:03] pass your sect's selection?

[07:42:07] Eleventh level?

[07:42:08] He was at the tenth during the selection,

[07:42:11] seems he's made progress recently.

[07:42:13] It sounds interesting.

[07:42:18] Kid,

[07:42:19] just surrender.

[07:42:21] Bullying a Qi Condensation junior,

[07:42:23] I'd feel disgraceful.

[07:42:29] No worries,

[07:42:30] I'll try to make you graceful.

[07:42:37] What trick is this?

[07:43:05] (Flame Manipulation Technique)

[07:43:19] What noble family are you from, fellow?

[07:43:21] Why spare no expense

[07:43:23] fighting against me?

[07:43:40] He sabotaged the arena,

[07:43:42] he'd be disqualified.

[07:43:48] We took a closer look,

[07:43:50] no damage was found on the arena.

[07:43:52] Han Li of Drifting Cloud Sect wins.

[07:44:09] It's kind of opportunistic,

[07:44:11] but he can activate a bunch of Fireball talismans at once

[07:44:14] and control the blast radius really precisely.

[07:44:18] It shows how well he knows the technique.

[07:44:21] While he's just at Qi Condensation,

[07:44:24] won't be playing a big role.

[07:44:26] Let's see who will make it

[07:44:27] into the top ten.

[07:44:29] (Drifting Cloud Sect)

[07:44:30] (Han Li)

[07:44:41] Mu Peiling of Drifting Cloud Sect wins.

[07:44:43] Excellent!

[07:45:23] Well done!

[07:45:38] Sun Huo of Drifting Cloud Sect wins.

[07:45:52] Han Li of Drifting Cloud Sect wins.

[07:45:58] (Han Li)

[07:46:00] (Wen Tianhan, Han Li)

[07:46:01] (Han Li, Wen Tianhan)

[07:46:16] Du Dong of Drifting Cloud Sect wins.

[07:46:20] Good!

[07:46:23] (Han Li, Wen Tianhan)

[07:46:25] (Han Li, Du Dong)

[07:46:31] Fellow Bai, White Phoenix Fairy,

[07:46:34] you're all winners at Sword Testing Tournament back then,

[07:46:37] so it's like coming home.

[07:46:41] I won the championship for Ancient Sword Sect,

[07:46:43] over a century has passed,

[07:46:45] this time,

[07:46:46] our sect still holds the championship title.

[07:46:50] Fellows,

[07:46:52] don't chin up.

[07:46:58] Unfortunately, Soul Soothing Pill is used when trying to reach Nascent Soul,

[07:47:02] it's of no use for the Nine Spirit Sword Body.

[07:47:05] Fellow Bai, would you like to exchange with us?

[07:47:08] You old fox, you've been scheming all the time.

[07:47:11] Drifting Cloud Sect's performance is interesting this time,

[07:47:14] four of their disciples made the top ten,

[07:47:17] and two of them are still at Qi Condensation Stage.

[07:47:19] In the future,

[07:47:20] they're going to be great.

[07:47:21] If you hadn't been so easy on them,

[07:47:23] his so-called 'Nine Spirit Sword Body'

[07:47:25] would've been killed easily.

[07:47:26] I'm not some bloodthirsty demon.

[07:47:30] While,

[07:47:31] it's true that it's three sects converge,

[07:47:34] who knows how many Core Formation cultivators are lurking nearby.

[07:47:38] Everyone's here.

[07:47:40] Sword Testing Tournament has concluded,

[07:47:43] as we agreed,

[07:47:44] the top ten disciples are all set

[07:47:47] and ready to go.

[07:48:13] Impressive curse,

[07:48:15] it completely hides the aura

[07:48:17] of the huge tree.

[07:48:18] If I get the chance,

[07:48:19] I'll enjoy observing here.

[07:48:21] How huge this tree is…

[07:48:23] Must be tens of thousands of years old.

[07:48:25] It could survive

[07:48:27] through the wars...

[07:48:30] What's wrong?

[07:48:31] Nothing, I just thought something,

[07:48:33] got a headache.

[07:49:05] That's the joint formation set up by the three sects' elders.

[07:49:15] It blocks my spiritual sense,

[07:49:16] and I can't probe through it.

[07:49:33] Nascent Soul cultivator.

[07:49:35] Martial Uncle Lan,

[07:49:37] what brings you here?

[07:49:40] Can't you see it's a crucial point?

[07:49:43] Wait until I finish this round of weiqi.

[07:49:47] As you command.

[07:50:05] I win!

[07:50:06] Senior Lan, your skills are exceptional,

[07:50:08] I'm throwing in the towel.

[07:50:10] Martial Nephew Wei,

[07:50:11] you weren't going easy on me, were you?

[07:50:14] If you held back,

[07:50:15] I wouldn't be happy then.

[07:50:20] I dare not fool you, Martial Uncle.

[07:50:22] Well,

[07:50:23] my skills are superior.

[07:50:27] Alright, let's continue

[07:50:29] after I take care of this important thing.

[07:50:57] Martial Nephew Bai,

[07:51:01] how long have you been at the Ancient Sword Sect?

[07:51:06] Martial Uncle,

[07:51:07] it's been

[07:51:08] over a century now.

[07:51:12] Over a century,

[07:51:14] you must've endured so much.

[07:51:21] What do you mean, Martial Uncle?

[07:51:28] What do I mean?

[07:51:29] As the Righteous Dao Coalition's Haoran Pavilion leader's final disciple,

[07:51:33] you've been at our sect for so long,

[07:51:36] have you ever thought

[07:51:37] of visiting your master?

[07:51:49] Is it real?

[07:52:01] Fellow Bai,

[07:52:03] you can still change your mind.

[07:52:05] Don't do anything silly.

[07:52:07] Fu,

[07:52:10] I've never thought you'd give me a lecture one day.

[07:52:13] Bai, don't be silly.

[07:52:30] These are

[07:52:32] flying needles?

[07:52:33] No,

[07:52:34] it's Sword Qi into Thread,

[07:52:36] an advanced technique

[07:52:37] of sword cultivation.

[07:52:40] How dare you use Taibai Qi Transformation Hand

[07:52:43] of our sect against your fellow disciple?

[07:52:51] Alright,

[07:52:52] guards,

[07:52:53] take him to the Dragon's Confinement Pit.

[07:52:56] We elders will decide his punishment later.

[07:53:00] Yes, elder.

[07:53:05] Nascent Soul sword cultivator.

[07:53:07] He honed his Sword Qi skills to such a degree.

[07:53:10] But,

[07:53:11] there's one more person,

[07:53:13] I'm not sure who he is.

[07:53:14] Alright,

[07:53:16] take care of your stuff,

[07:53:18] I'm going to play weiqi.

[07:53:36] (Episode 154 Return to Tiannan Season 1)

[07:53:40] (Watch with Headphones for Better Viewing Experience)

[07:53:45] I didn't expect

[07:53:47] Fellow Bai to be...

[07:53:53] He's a big shot in Ancient Sword Sect.

[07:53:55] Now that this has come to light,

[07:53:57] this could have some major repercussions.

[07:53:59] It's hard to say how many spies have infiltrated other sects.

[07:54:05] Our Heavenly Dao Coalition claims to be neutral,

[07:54:07] but we're caught between the Righteous Dao and Demonic Sects,

[07:54:13] so it's not that simple.

[07:54:20] This is the heart of the Spirit Well Tree.

[07:54:28] This sacred tree has gained a soul,

[07:54:31] it's almost like a living creature.

[07:54:35] Senior

[07:54:36] Wei?

[07:54:45] You are

[07:54:49] that little girl from back then?

[07:54:51] Now you're a Core Formation cultivator.

[07:54:54] Martial Uncle Cheng knows your Closed Door Training has been finished,

[07:54:56] and asks when you can return.

[07:54:58] He's been waiting for you.

[07:55:00] Senior Feng

[07:55:02] also misses you dearly.

[07:55:03] Enough.

[07:55:05] Let's not dredge up the past.

[07:55:08] When I entered here,

[07:55:09] I promised myself that

[07:55:12] I'd stick around

[07:55:14] until I reached the Nascent Soul.

[07:55:16] Besides, with all of you in the sect,

[07:55:19] it's more than enough.

[07:55:31] It's not the time to extract the Nectar,

[07:55:34] let me finish up with the last of the Brightsight Water prep.

[07:55:37] Hang tight here a sec.

[07:56:12] Han,

[07:56:12] you called me?

[07:56:13] I know you're good with Earth Release Technique.

[07:56:15] Can you go underground to get through that light prohibition,

[07:56:18] and grab a piece of root from Spirit Well Tree for me?

[07:56:21] Okay, I'll give it a shot.

[07:56:39] Could he have accomplices?

[07:56:41] If anyone can hide from my spiritual sense,

[07:56:44] it must be one of the three Core Formation cultivators here.

[07:56:46] Who is it?

[07:56:46] Han,

[07:56:47] the roots of the Spirit Well Tree are also protected by a light prohibition.

[07:56:50] I've got a method to force my way through,

[07:56:52] but I can't promise

[07:56:53] I'd alert that Core Formation cultivator inside.

[07:57:05] Come back then.

[07:57:07] This place

[07:57:08] might go into chaos later.

[07:57:16] Something happened to the Sacred Tree's prohibition.

[07:57:18] A bunch of people are attacking the outside formation,

[07:57:21] not just Core cultivators,

[07:57:22] but even Nascent Soul evils!

[07:57:22] Martial Uncle Lan goes to reinforce the main formation,

[07:57:24] you two, come with me to support him.

[07:57:25] I'll protect here.

[07:57:27] During this time, anyone who enters this area

[07:57:29] will be executed.

[07:57:35] You junior disciples

[07:57:36] should take shelter in the meditation chamber.

[07:57:56] It sounds like

[07:57:57] a battle among Nascent Soul cultivators.

[07:57:59] Such a grand display of power,

[07:58:00] it must be the Righteous Dao

[07:58:01] and the Six-Devil Dao Sects.

[07:58:05] Han,

[07:58:06] we're seeing something pretty significant here, right?

[07:58:09] Even with all these strict prohibitions here,

[07:58:12] accidents still happen.

[07:58:14] It must be

[07:58:16] a battle among Nascent Soul cultivators up there.

[07:58:19] Nascent Soul cultivators,

[07:58:20] what kind of battle do you think that would be?

[07:58:24] I've actually seen that.

[07:58:26] I hope Martial Uncle Song makes it through safely.

[07:58:28] Who would've thought that

[07:58:30] Martial Uncle Bai from the Ancient Sword Sect was a spy for the Righteous Dao Coalition?

[07:58:40] That senior,

[07:58:41] well,

[07:58:43] was quite poor.

[07:58:47] Du,

[07:58:49] what do you mean by that?

[07:58:52] Senior Han,

[07:58:54] do you think I made a good point?

[07:58:56] I don't know Martial Uncle Bai very well,

[07:58:59] so it wouldn't be fair for me to judge.

[07:59:00] Is that so?

[07:59:02] I think...

[07:59:03] Du,

[07:59:04] didn't you hear me?

[07:59:08] Yes, I did.

[07:59:10] I have no interest in answering nonsense.

[07:59:14] Wait,

[07:59:17] who are you?

[07:59:23] One of the Six-Devil Dao Sects,

[07:59:24] Young Master of the Thousand Illusions Sect,

[07:59:26] does this answer satisfy everyone?

[07:59:42] Martial...

[07:59:43] Martial Uncle Bai?

[07:59:45] Fellow Bai, you seem pretty relaxed.

[07:59:47] You Demonic Sect evil,

[07:59:48] your sarcastic tone is a bit much,

[07:59:50] If it weren't for that old monster wanting me alive for negotiations,

[07:59:54] today I almost met my end here.

[07:59:57] I never expected that old fire dragon would intervene,

[08:00:00] but

[08:00:01] everything went as planned.

[08:00:04] Martial Uncle Fen

[08:00:05] and Senior Jin Jing from your Pavilion

[08:00:07] should be able to buy us enough time.

[08:00:11] Don't do anything reckless.

[08:00:14] Stay there.

[08:00:29] Supreme Thousand Illusions Art,

[08:00:31] is worthy of being the Thousand Illusions Sect's secret art.

[08:00:34] When it comes to hiding and getting away,

[08:00:37] no one in Tiannan can beat him.

[08:00:40] Righteous Dao

[08:00:41] and Demonic Sects

[08:00:42] have all been here.

[08:00:50] Han...

[08:00:51] Han Li.

[08:00:52] Han.

[08:00:54] Kid,

[08:00:55] I've had it with you for a while.

[08:01:01] Just die just like that.

[08:01:02] What are you doing?

[08:01:02] Among these disciples,

[08:01:04] there's a direct descendant of Divine Sorrow Monster.

[08:01:06] Don't act rashly.

[08:01:10] He's not breathing at all.

[08:01:12] This Han guy is fishy,

[08:01:15] I suspect he's hiding his true power,

[08:01:17] so,

[08:01:18] the early bird catches the worm.

[08:01:20] The descendant of that Divine Sorrow Monster

[08:01:22] could never be this person.

[08:01:26] I'm glad you know what you're doing.

[08:01:27] Save it,

[08:01:28] and for the rest,

[08:01:29] just lie down.

[08:01:43] Let's go.

[08:02:00] Supreme Thousand Illusions Art,

[08:02:03] no one in Tiannan can beat him.

[08:02:07] Han, what do you think of my Heavenly Fox Illusion Art?

[08:02:11] Is it better than the Supreme Thousand Illusions Art?

[08:02:16] Indeed impressive.

[08:02:17] But if their cultivation were higher,

[08:02:19] it might not have fooled them.

[08:02:31] Han,

[08:02:32] we got the Soul Soothing Pill,

[08:02:33] let's go?

[08:02:34] No,

[08:02:36] let's follow them.

[08:02:54] (Skyborne Doom)

[08:03:02] It is indeed the Sect Leader's token,

[08:03:05] but no,

[08:03:07] absolutely not.

[08:03:13] Wei,

[08:03:14] don't forget

[08:03:15] you are from the Skyborne Doom Sect.

[08:03:18] Staying here too long,

[08:03:19] you do think you're one of them?

[08:03:22] Humans aren't stones,

[08:03:24] so we can't just be heartless.

[08:03:26] Elder Cheng was like a father to me.

[08:03:28] He not only saved my life and taught me his arts,

[08:03:30] but he also overrules all objections,

[08:03:32] intends to make me the next leader of Drifting Cloud Sect.

[08:03:35] It's hard to thank him enough

[08:03:36] for his kindness.

[08:03:38] What you said,

[08:03:40] I also feel

[08:03:41] the same way.

[08:03:44] But a fake is always going to be a fake.

[08:03:45] The message from Master in the token says that

[08:03:47] the Righteous Dao and Demonic Sects have discovered

[08:03:50] an ancient Black Heavens Immortal Vine near the Mulan Grassland.

[08:03:53] For the slimmest chance of reviving this vine,

[08:03:56] they spare no expense

[08:03:58] activating all sleeper agents like us,

[08:04:02] who've been undercover in the three sects for years.

[08:04:04] I can share Nectar with you,

[08:04:08] but this Sacred Tree's essence

[08:04:09] is the foundation of our three sects

[08:04:12] and absolutely cannot be tainted by you.

[08:04:15] Fellow Bai,

[08:04:18] the Immortal Vine is our top priority.

[08:04:21] Give us the Nectar

[08:04:23] and we'll be on our way.

[08:04:26] Black Heavens Immortal Vine?

[08:04:28] It's no surprise that both Righteous Dao and Demonic Sects went all-in.

[08:04:33] What's he doing here?

[08:04:35] Then who's fighting outside?

[08:04:37] Could it be...

[08:04:54] I hope you both

[08:04:55] keep your word.

[08:05:09] The Sacred Tree Nectar is a treasure of our three sects,

[08:05:12] how could you hand it over to the enemy?

[08:05:15] So it was indeed a joint scheme by the three sects' leaders.

[08:05:17] I'm not on board with this.

[08:05:21] Excellent.

[08:05:23] Now that you've revealed yourselves,

[08:05:24] I won't need to identify you.

[08:05:28] Impossible.

[08:05:29] Weren't you supposed to be providing support outside?

[08:05:31] Do you think Fen Monster and Jin Jing

[08:05:34] manage to keep us fully occupied?

[08:05:37] At this moment,

[08:05:38] they should be trapped by Fellow Cheng and Lu.

[08:05:41] The commotion outside now

[08:05:43] was set by me.

[08:05:47] If I don't teach you a lesson,

[08:05:48] and you'd think our Heavenly Dao Coalition is weak.

[08:05:56] I

[08:05:57] can't bully the weak.

[08:05:59] Will you surrender,

[08:06:02] or should I stretch my legs a bit?

[08:06:06] Martial Uncle Lan, something's wrong.

[08:06:08] Elder Cheng from Drifting Cloud Sect sent a Voice Transmission Talisman,

[08:06:09] the cultivators and the others walked right into an ambush,

[08:06:12] besides the Thousand Illusions Sect and Haoran Pavilion,

[08:06:13] there were also people from the Skyborne Doom Sect.

[08:06:14] They're now locked in a fierce battle,

[08:06:16] they need Reinforcements now.

[08:06:17] You vile demonic spawn,

[08:06:20] dare to play a double-cross with us old-timers.

[08:06:23] I'll slaughter you all!

[08:06:39] Spell Casting via a Host Body?

[08:06:42] You're

[08:06:43] Skyborne Doom Monarch.

[08:06:52] Missed the win by a hair's breadth.

[08:06:59] Possession Art?

[08:07:01] No,

[08:07:01] it seems more sophisticated.

[08:07:03] His power seems to be stronger than Absolute Darkness.

[08:07:06] Was this imprint put on Wei before he was a spy here?

[08:07:09] Why did it suddenly activate?

[08:07:10] Could it be that token?

[08:07:13] As expected from the renowned Fiery Dragon Boy,

[08:07:17] Fellow Lan, you know a lot.

[08:07:20] You know who I am.

[08:07:22] Bummer,

[08:07:24] my true form isn't here today,

[08:07:26] we can't have a proper sparring match.

[08:07:30] I'll hold him off with this possessed body,

[08:07:33] You two,

[08:07:35] bring the Nectar back at all costs.

[08:07:38] Understood.

[08:07:55] Go.

[08:08:08] Silvermoon, go back

[08:08:09] and make it seem like I'm still hurt really badly.

[08:08:11] I'll come to you ASAP.

[08:08:12] Master, I just played a corpse,

[08:08:14] how can I fake severe injuries now?

[08:08:15] Find a way.

[08:08:16] As you command.

[08:08:18] You treacherous villain!

[08:08:22] These poisonous miasmas

[08:08:23] can't beat me at all.

[08:08:25] It's okay that it ruins your day.

[08:08:41] This is

[08:08:42] Skyborne Doom Technique.

[08:08:44] You think a possessed body could make me fall victim to Doom Energy?

[08:09:01] Today I'll definitely keep you pinned down!

[08:09:07] They're gone.

[08:09:09] Time to move.

[08:09:32] (Episode 155 Return to Tiannan Season 1)

[08:09:36] (Watch with Headphones for Better Viewing Experience)

[08:09:43] You evil monsters,

[08:09:44] how could you use your own disciple as a dead spy?

[08:09:48] Join the club.

[08:10:00] It seems like they really don't want us to leave.

[08:10:02] We should probably split up.

[08:10:04] You nailed it.

[08:10:13] Senior Bai, don't make things worse by making more mistakes.

[08:10:16] Junior,

[08:10:17] I can't go back now.

[08:10:20] All fools.

[08:11:06] Fiery Dragon Boy, is this all you've got?

[08:11:11] Why are you holding back?

[08:11:19] Maybe you're worried about damaging the Sacred Tree?

[08:11:34] You won't lay a finger on this Sacred Tree!

[08:11:52] This is a bit of a hassle.

[08:11:56] You alone,

[08:11:57] in this possessed body,

[08:11:59] can't protect them all.

[08:12:01] Who said I'm trying to protect them?

[08:12:04] Life and death are just part of the natural order.

[08:12:06] If you value your life, how do you go against the heavens?

[08:12:12] Today, I shall use this traitor's essence and blood

[08:12:16] to show you

[08:12:18] the true power of the Violet Mystery Art.

[08:12:24] You'd even sacrifice your own disciple?

[08:12:26] This way, he'll end up dead.

[08:12:29] This traitor teamed up with those Drifting Cloud Sect folks

[08:12:34] and betrayed our sect a while back.

[08:12:37] He deserved to die.

[08:12:40] Prepare yourself!

[08:12:43] What a hassle.

[08:12:45] Hey, old man,

[08:12:47] where are you going?

[08:12:49] If I keep messing with you, those two brats will get away.

[08:12:52] I just need to kill those two little brats.

[08:12:55] We've invested a lot,

[08:12:57] we won't let you ruin it so easily.

[08:13:10] This was supposed to be the Forbidden Ground,

[08:13:12] but it became the blind spot right under their noses.

[08:13:15] Now, I must get

[08:13:17] the Scared Tree roots and leave.

[08:13:31] It's you.

[08:13:35] What are you doing here?

[08:13:37] Weren't you supposed to guard the outside?

[08:13:40] Does anyone here today still show their true face?

[08:13:48] Since you've met me here,

[08:13:50] then go die.

[08:14:15] Core Formation Final Stage.

[08:15:56] You've hidden your power well.

[08:15:58] I misjudged you.

[08:16:02] Which sect do you belong to?

[08:16:04] Could you be a secret agent from the Drifting Cloud Sect?

[08:16:06] I never expected to find someone like you here.

[08:16:10] You know you won't get an answer,

[08:16:12] why bother asking, fellow?

[08:16:15] Heavenly Dao Coalition is riddled with holes,

[08:16:18] and so is the whole of Tiannan.

[08:16:20] That day is coming up soon.

[08:16:23] What a pity, I haven't finished my mission.

[08:16:28] This so-called Sacred Tree,

[08:16:30] die with me!

[08:16:40] These insects, you're...

[08:16:46] I've never seen someone

[08:16:48] use a technique like that.

[08:16:50] Not even a storage pouch was left behind.

[08:16:52] Righteous Dao, Demonic...

[08:16:54] No, not them.

[08:16:56] Neither the Tiannan nor the Sea of Chaotic Stars has such...

[08:17:00] What faction sent this lunatic?

[08:17:04] This Sacred Tree is so important to the three sects and the Heavenly Dao Coalition.

[08:17:08] If I damage its source,

[08:17:09] it could disrupt the power balance in Tiannan.

[08:17:11] I'd just take a small one.

[08:17:37] This is

[08:17:38] Cultivation techniques and alchemy notes

[08:17:40] preparation methods for Soul Soothing Pill and Brightsight Water.

[08:17:43] That cultivator named Wei,

[08:17:44] why did he record these things and leave them here?

[08:17:48] Did he see his own future?

[08:17:57] What should I do now?

[08:17:58] This is a bit tricky.

[08:18:01] What if I just silence all these people?

[08:18:09] What are you mumbling about?

[08:18:14] Just tell them

[08:18:15] you bought an illusion talisman at a high price

[08:18:18] to protect your life when severely injured.

[08:18:21] But that move

[08:18:26] didn't just look like a severe injury.

[08:18:33] What is this?

[08:18:34] This is Memory-Erasing Pill.

[08:18:37] Just feed them a few more

[08:18:38] and they'll forget everything that happened here.

[08:18:40] Hurry up.

[08:18:41] The battle above is probably ending soon.

[08:18:53] Master, how'd you get so experienced?

[08:19:17] While we were unconscious,

[08:19:19] something major must've happened.

[08:19:21] And that Du is missing too.

[08:19:25] The elders' faces

[08:19:27] all look pretty serious.

[08:19:32] Why do I feel like

[08:19:34] I've forgotten something?

[08:19:36] Did I feed him too much?

[08:19:39] It's okay.

[08:20:04] Mount Cloudy Dream's purge operation

[08:20:07] has totally flopped.

[08:20:09] Several Core cultivators died,

[08:20:12] and Drifting Cloud Sect's two Nascent Soul elders

[08:20:13] were ambushed by Skyborne Doom Sect and Thousand Illusions Sect.

[08:20:19] Elder Cheng was seriously hurt after being attacked by several other cultivators

[08:20:22] who were all at the same level.

[08:20:23] The Fiery Dragon Boy

[08:20:28] managed to repel all the enemies,

[08:20:32] but the Demonic Sect

[08:20:35] escaped with the Sacred Tree Nectar.

[08:20:39] All the big factions

[08:20:43] stand with swords drawn,

[08:20:45] and are gearing up for war.

[08:20:47] However,

[08:20:49] Elder Fu

[08:20:52] is MIA.

[08:21:04] It seems the mission has failed.

[08:21:08] Useless fool.

[08:21:10] Fine,

[08:21:11] it's just the beginning.

[08:21:13] These Tiannan scum

[08:21:16] will eventually bow down to Mulan's iron heels.

[08:21:57] (Twenty Years Later)

[08:22:06] (Great Development Technique)

[08:22:20] With this wooden bead necklace made of Soul Nurturing Tree,

[08:22:23] the cultivation of the Great Development Technique has become much easier.

[08:22:28] Why does the record stop here?

[08:22:30] I've got an extraordinary technique,

[08:22:32] and mastering it could be as impressive as the achievements of ten thousand generations.

[08:22:34] But my silk scrolls and bamboo slips are all used up,

[08:22:36] so I've got nothing left to write on, alas.

[08:22:39] What a pity.

[08:22:40] Alas?

[08:22:42] Clearly, he just couldn't write any more..

[08:22:44] He is so...

[08:22:46] Deity Great Development, huh?

[08:22:49] Han,

[08:22:51] you're finally going to finish your Closed Door Training.

[08:22:54] These twenty years must've been exhausting for me,

[08:22:57] dealing with sect members, tending the herb garden, caring for the Sacred Tree,

[08:23:02] feeding the insects, a rabbit, and a monkey.

[08:23:05] I'm a tool spirit, but I'm also a living being.

[08:23:23] Whoa, Han, I'm not tired!

[08:23:28] Any interesting news lately?

[08:23:30] The gate of the Ancient Sword Sect is tightly shut,

[08:23:32] it seems they're investigating infiltrators.

[08:23:35] The Nine Kingdoms Alliance in the south suffered several defeats,

[08:23:38] losing significant territory to the Mulan.

[08:23:40] They got help from other factions,

[08:23:43] which helped strengthen their weak front,

[08:23:44] but it looks like the Nine Kingdoms Alliance gave up a lot.

[08:23:48] Oh, the Supreme Elder of Drifting Cloud Sect

[08:23:50] has recovered and finished his Closed Door Training.

[08:23:52] When he returned, he ordered

[08:23:55] all members of the sect to return.

[08:23:57] The sect has strict entry and exit restrictions.

[08:23:58] Well, it's been quite a while since the Sword Testing Tournament wrapped up.

[08:24:03] Why are the three sects of Mount Cloudy Dream still on edge?

[08:24:05] All the junior disciples were told not to

[08:24:07] talk about what happened that day,

[08:24:09] but some people

[08:24:10] still managed to leak the story.

[08:24:13] It's had a huge impact,

[08:24:14] and people in Tiannan are pretty distrustful

[08:24:15] of each other because of it.

[08:24:18] The Mulan must be thrilled.

[08:24:19] If this is all man-made,

[08:24:22] whoever's pulling the strings

[08:24:24] is truly terrifying.

[08:24:30] Oh, that beautiful Martial Uncle Mu

[08:24:33] still comes by the herb garden regularly to collect spiritual plants.

[08:24:35] She always stays for a whole day,

[08:24:37] she seems to enjoy chatting with me quite a bit.

[08:24:41] But I've managed to handle it all.

[08:24:43] She seems worried about something,

[08:24:47] so she's been feeling a little down.

[08:24:50] I bet that Feng is probably getting on her nerves.

[08:24:53] It's okay.

[08:24:54] I've got you covered

[08:24:55] with these everyday nuisances.

[08:24:57] No need to report every little thing.

[08:24:59] There are

[08:25:01] a lot of alchemy manuals in the Drifting Cloud Sect

[08:25:03] that I still need to study.

[08:25:06] After all, many ingredients in the Ninecurl Spirit Ginseng Pill

[08:25:09] are extinct in Tiannan.

[08:25:12] Failure is not an option.

[08:25:15] Han, are you finally going to use that rabbit for alchemy?

[08:25:21] Why do you look so eager?

[08:25:28] This Ninecurl Spirit Ginseng has become self-aware.

[08:25:31] If I set the right restriction,

[08:25:32] it'll happily offer some of its spiritual essence.

[08:25:35] There's no need for such wasteful practices,

[08:25:37] am I right?

[08:25:45] Okay, I'll go on my Closed Door Training,

[08:25:47] and prepare materials for reaching Nascent Soul.

[08:25:52] Take care of everything for me, please, Silvermoon.

[08:25:55] Yes, Master.

[08:26:15] Nascent Soul, I'm ready.

[08:26:28] Cultivate myself through tribulation,

[08:26:30] hone my heart within mortal fray.

[08:26:32] Joy and ignorance

[08:26:33] both go beyond the physical world.

[08:26:35] Many days fleet as morning mist,

[08:26:36] future unfolds like a river without thirst.

[08:26:38] We're but a drop in the ocean,

[08:26:40] eternity's song lies in mortal's life.

[08:26:44] Finally,

[08:26:46] the moment has come.

[08:27:00] Han Li,

[08:27:02] are you ready?

[08:27:08] (Episode 156 Return to Tiannan Season 1)

[08:27:12] (Watch with Headphones for Better Viewing Experience)

[08:27:41] Keep watch here.

[08:27:42] Don't disturb me, no matter what happens.

[08:27:49] I understood.

[08:27:56] False Spiritual Roots,

[08:27:57] a rogue cultivator,

[08:27:58] has reached this level.

[08:28:02] My master

[08:28:04] has endured no small hardship.

[08:28:09] Doesn't this happen every year?

[08:28:11] Why is it...

[08:28:11] The mountain is sealed off, you'd go back.

[08:28:13] What's going on?

[08:28:15] My gosh!

[08:28:30] (Drifting Cloud Sect's Protective Formation)

[08:28:34] The whole sect is sealed off.

[08:28:36] Such a spectacle,

[08:28:38] is someone going to have Closed Door Training for a breakthrough?

[08:28:40] Senior Mu, you just finished your Closed Door Training.

[08:28:42] Elder Feng has started his Closed Door Training for forming a Nascent Soul.

[08:28:46] Our Drifting Cloud Sect might soon have the third Nascent Soul cultivator.

[08:28:50] Junior Mu.

[08:28:53] Junior Mu, please wait.

[08:28:58] I wanted to come to you.

[08:29:01] My father specially kept these three spiritual elixirs for you.

[08:29:04] Once he finishes this training,

[08:29:05] he'll be a Nascent Soul cultivator.

[08:29:07] As his only son,

[08:29:09] surely I won't bring shame upon you, will I?

[08:29:20] I'm devoted to cultivating,

[08:29:21] and I'm not attached to your status.

[08:29:25] As for becoming cultivation partners,

[08:29:27] even if Elder Feng gets involved,

[08:29:29] I'll still plead with him to rescind his decree.

[08:29:32] Senior, don't bother me.

[08:29:34] Even if you feel this way,

[08:29:36] your clan might not share your sentiment.

[08:29:38] You might find your cultivation resources cut off by your family,

[08:29:40] that would be most unfortunate.

[08:29:59] He was once in the top ten in the Three Sects' Sword Testing Tournament,

[08:30:02] but he'd rather tend the herb garden in peace.

[08:30:08] We've gotten closer over the years,

[08:30:12] but I still feel I don't know him a lot.

[08:30:15] Could it be...

[08:30:18] Never mind.

[08:30:19] After all these years,

[08:30:20] how could that be possible?

[08:30:21] He could just be shy.

[08:30:23] I must be imagining things.

[08:30:33] What happened?

[08:30:34] This celestial phenomenon...

[08:30:36] Could Elder Feng be forming a Nascent Soul?

[08:30:40] No.

[08:30:43] That direction

[08:30:45] is not the main hall.

[08:30:47] It is

[08:30:50] the herb garden!

[08:31:53] This is...

[08:31:53] the Nascent Soul's Celestial Omens?

[08:31:56] The Drifting Cloud Sect...

[08:31:59] It's them!

[08:32:01] Are they about to have a third Nascent Soul cultivator?

[08:32:10] Didn't Martial Nephew Feng just enter the preparatory phase?

[08:32:13] Could it be...

[08:32:15] It's not him.

[08:32:17] There must be someone else who is forming a Nascent Soul in our Drifting Cloud Sect.

[08:32:22] This phenomenon

[08:32:23] can't be mistaken.

[08:32:24] Senior.

[08:32:25] What now?

[08:32:26] Are we just going to let someone

[08:32:28] try to make a Nascent Soul breakthrough on our sect's turf?

[08:32:31] Exactly.

[08:32:33] Junior,

[08:32:34] you've got it right.

[08:32:36] We don't need to do anything at all.

[08:32:39] Just be patient.

[08:32:42] I'm not sure if this person will make it through the final stage, Heart Demon.

[08:32:48] The process of fighting Heart Demon,

[08:32:51] I guess you haven't forgotten, right?

[08:32:53] Forgotten?

[08:32:54] How could I?

[08:32:56] I don't want to go through that again.

[08:33:00] Facing the deepest fears in my heart.

[08:33:03] The more you fear something,

[08:33:04] the more it manifests.

[08:33:06] Heart Demon lasts but a moment in reality,

[08:33:10] yet for a cultivator trying to form a Nascent Soul,

[08:33:13] it is a trial fraught with peril.

[08:33:16] We can just wait here.

[08:33:20] If this person forms Nascent Soul,

[08:33:23] it might not be a bad thing

[08:33:25] for our Drifting Cloud Sect.

[08:33:28] Senior,

[08:33:29] do you want to recruit this person?

[08:33:31] Could this person

[08:33:32] be a rogue cultivator?

[08:33:34] If he were from a clan or sect,

[08:33:37] there should be many high-level cultivators guarding him.

[08:33:40] Why would this person risk trying to form a Nascent Soul here?

[08:33:44] It is far better to have a rogue cultivator who has formed a Nascent Soul

[08:33:46] as an ally than to make an enemy of one.

[08:33:51] Don't you agree?

[08:33:53] It's beginning!

[08:34:18] Stay alert, everyone!

[08:34:20] Spiritual power surges could happen at any time.

[08:34:21] The celestial phenomenon is extremely rare.

[08:34:24] Martial Uncle Mu.

[08:34:26] Does anyone else feel like that luminous sphere is expanding?

[08:34:29] Oh my god, this is breathtaking.

[08:34:45] It's the four-colored spiritual power.

[08:34:49] How is this possible?

[08:35:01] How? The pressure is scary.

[08:35:12] It's gone.

[08:35:58] It's huge.

[08:36:55] Listen up, everyone.

[08:36:57] The area within ten miles of it has been set as a restricted zone, for now.

[08:36:59] Anyone who stays here

[08:37:01] is breaking the rules of the sect.

[08:37:09] Martial Nephew Mu,

[08:37:10] you stay here.

[08:37:12] Are you in charge of this herb garden?

[08:37:14] Yes,

[08:37:15] but a disciple at Qi Condensation Stage handles the daily caring,

[08:37:20] named

[08:37:22] Han Li.

[08:37:25] Han Li?

[08:37:28] That disciple who made the top ten

[08:37:30] in the Sword Testing Tournament years ago.

[08:37:34] Could this person have triggered the Nascent Soul's Celestial Omens?

[08:37:38] Form

[08:37:40] a Nascent Soul.

[08:37:44] You've handled it well.

[08:37:46] We'll take care of the rest.

[08:37:49] - As you command. - As you command.

[08:37:59] Excuse...

[08:38:04] Excuse me,

[08:38:07] I am from the Drifting Cloud Sect…

[08:38:11] Cheng Tiankun.

[08:38:15] Congrats on forming a Nascent Soul, fellow.

[08:38:19] Could my junior Lu Luo and I

[08:38:22] have the honor of chatting with you for a bit?

[08:38:26] Fellow?

[08:38:34] This person built his dwelling here,

[08:38:36] and laid down powerful formations,

[08:38:39] yet as the masters of this mountain, we failed to notice it.

[08:38:42] It is truly a disgrace.

[08:38:44] I guess those old men would make fun of us.

[08:38:48] I borrowed your sect's grounds to form a Nascent Soul,

[08:38:52] without informing either of you beforehand.

[08:38:54] My deepest apologies, I hope you'll forgive me.

[08:38:56] Not at all, fellow.

[08:38:57] Forming a Nascent Soul is a huge deal,

[08:38:59] you chose our Drifting Cloud Sect,

[08:39:01] it's truly an honor for our sect.

[08:39:04] You're being too modest.

[08:39:08] That I was able to form my Nascent Soul here,

[08:39:10] is thanks to the blessings of your esteemed sect.

[08:39:12] I'm lifting the prohibitions now.

[08:39:15] Please come in and join me for a chat.

[08:39:39] Fellows,

[08:39:41] please.

[08:39:42] A Mechanical Puppet at Foundation Establishment stage,

[08:39:44] it's quite rare.

[08:39:47] Excellent tea.

[08:39:47] So good.

[08:39:51] You've survived these turbulent times as a rogue cultivator,

[08:39:54] and even formed a Nascent Soul…

[08:39:56] Such a feat is truly extraordinary.

[08:39:58] May I ask how long you have been in cultivating?

[08:40:01] I'm a bit slow on the uptake.

[08:40:02] I've been on the immortal path

[08:40:04] for over two hundred years now.

[08:40:07] Two...

[08:40:09] What?

[08:40:11] Only

[08:40:12] two hundred years?

[08:40:15] Absolutely true.

[08:40:18] Senior,

[08:40:20] he said two hundred,

[08:40:21] a 200-year-old Nascent Soul cultivator.

[08:40:23] Junior,

[08:40:24] I heard it.

[08:40:25] Such a young Nascent Soul cultivator,

[08:40:27] is so rare

[08:40:28] in the history of Tiannan.

[08:40:30] And those either became patriarchs...

[08:40:32] Or demons.

[08:40:34] The younger generation is really something.

[08:40:40] We must

[08:40:43] keep him here.

[08:40:52] Fellow, now that you've been Nascent Soul, will you return to your homeland

[08:40:56] or start a new sect?

[08:40:58] With your talents, you surely have many options.

[08:41:01] It looks like our worries

[08:41:03] were unwarranted.

[08:41:06] I'm not sure yet.

[08:41:12] Years ago, I thought Mount Cloudy Dream

[08:41:14] was serene, and brimming with spiritual power.

[08:41:17] So I decided

[08:41:20] to stay here.

[08:41:22] Sorry for bothering you two for so long..

[08:41:25] In that case,

[08:41:26] if you don't mind our Drifting Cloud Sect being rather humble,

[08:41:29] perhaps you might stay here

[08:41:31] and join us as a Supreme Elder?

[08:41:34] Yeah, excellent idea.

[08:41:35] Eh...

[08:41:36] Our Drifting Cloud Sect

[08:41:37] is not as powerful as the Righteous Dao or Demonic Sects,

[08:41:40] our advantage is that we have fewer everyday obligations.

[08:41:43] We've got the strength to protect ourselves when needed.

[08:41:46] If you're up for it,

[08:41:47] - you could share equal status with the two of us. - Exactly.

[08:41:50] - Equal status. - Lu and I

[08:41:52] are not ambitious.

[08:41:54] We'd never treat you as an outsider.

[08:41:59] You invited me to be your sect elder

[08:42:01] without even asking about my background?

[08:42:04] Fellow Han, you must be joking.

[08:42:07] With your abilities, had you intended to do anything bad,

[08:42:09] our Drifting Cloud Sect would've been destroyed these years.

[08:42:13] Though we know not of your past,

[08:42:15] we've treated you with utmost sincerity.

[08:42:17] We really hope you don't see yourself as an outsider.

[08:42:21] It's such a shame,

[08:42:22] we two

[08:42:24] remain stuck at Nascent Soul Initial Stage

[08:42:26] for over a century now.

[08:42:28] We're looking for someone with the same level

[08:42:30] to study together,

[08:42:32] and take our cultivation to the next level.

[08:42:35] If you'd like to join our sect,

[08:42:38] we two will

[08:42:39] happily share our Nascent Soul cultivation techniques with you.

[08:42:45] Yes.

[08:42:45] We'll hold nothing back.

[08:42:49] Fellow Han,

[08:42:50] what do you think?

[08:42:59] I do appreciate

[08:43:01] your kindness,

[08:43:03] but this is a big deal.

[08:43:04] I'll give it some thought.

[08:43:06] How about this,

[08:43:07] in three days,

[08:43:08] I'll give you both my answer, alright?

[08:43:11] Sorry about that,

[08:43:12] we were a bit hasty.

[08:43:14] You do need to think it through.

[08:43:17] Fellow, we won't disturb your cultivation.

[08:43:20] Three days later,

[08:43:22] my junior and I will visit again.

[08:43:24] Farewell.

[08:43:25] Take care.

[08:43:45] (Episode 157 Return to Tiannan Season 1)

[08:43:49] (Watch with Headphones for Better Viewing Experience)

[08:44:00] Han, congrats

[08:44:02] on forming a Nascent Soul.

[08:44:04] (Succeed in Forming a Nascent Soul)

[08:44:12] I'm flattered.

[08:44:14] Thank you for guarding my breakthrough.

[08:44:17] It's my duty.

[08:44:19] Now that you've formed a Nascent Soul,

[08:44:23] your lifespan now spans a millennium,

[08:44:25] and reaching Deity Transformation,

[08:44:27] even ascending to immortality

[08:44:29] is not impossible.

[08:44:32] You've heard

[08:44:34] what Drifting Cloud Sect said, right?

[08:44:37] What's your take on this?

[08:44:40] Well...

[08:44:43] First,

[08:44:44] those two are in the early stage of Nascent Soul,

[08:44:46] staying here,

[08:44:48] you needn't worry about dangers or restrictions.

[08:44:51] Second,

[08:44:53] Drifting Cloud Sect

[08:44:55] is quite spacious,

[08:44:56] and it can provide you with considerable support.

[08:44:59] Most importantly,

[08:45:01] it's affiliated with Heavenly Dao Coalition,

[08:45:04] which is more peaceful and stable

[08:45:07] than the other three major factions.

[08:45:10] You're spot on.

[08:45:18] Well,

[08:45:19] as a Nascent Soul cultivator,

[08:45:21] even if you're a rogue one,

[08:45:23] not many would dare to provoke you recklessly.

[08:45:26] A rogue cultivator with Nascent Soul,

[08:45:29] I'm wondering if that old man Qing Yi is still alive.

[08:45:42] My spiritual power is running low.

[08:45:43] No worries,

[08:45:44] once you've recovered a bit more,

[08:45:45] you'll be able to shapeshift into human form at will,

[08:45:47] without draining your spiritual power.

[08:45:48] Indeed.

[08:45:50] I'd been spending a lot of time

[08:45:51] in the Void Heaven Ding over the years.

[08:45:52] A little more time won't hurt.

[08:45:54] But as they say, too much wisdom brings sorrow.

[08:45:58] You've always been sensitive.

[08:46:00] When you tried to form a Nascent Soul,

[08:46:02] I guess you faced a tough Heart Demon.

[08:46:04] You need more rest to stabilize.

[08:46:07] Get some rest early.

[08:46:17] I

[08:46:18] have truly succeeded in forming my Nascent Soul.

[08:46:21] I've had this moment in my dreams so many times.

[08:46:23] Now that it's finally happened,

[08:46:25] it feels strangely unreal.

[08:46:28] Earlier,

[08:46:29] it was pretty close.

[08:46:39] These are the two

[08:46:40] most dangerous steps to form a Nascent Soul.

[08:46:42] First step is

[08:46:43] Golden Core Shattering.

[08:46:50] Break.

[08:47:06] I must

[08:47:07] put up with the pain of my meridians reversing throughout my body.

[08:47:10] With all the magical power I've built up over the years,

[08:47:12] I'll make it through.

[08:48:03] Second step,

[08:48:05] Heart Demon.

[08:48:11] I've got Soul Nurturing Tree,

[08:48:13] Bore Bead

[08:48:14] and Soul Soothing Pill, which I've specially prepared.

[08:48:18] Come on.

[08:48:47] You are

[08:48:48] my Heart Demon?

[08:48:57] Right,

[08:49:00] at this very moment,

[08:49:01] to form a Nascent Soul is your greatest desire.

[08:49:04] So,

[08:49:05] this is just how I look.

[08:49:11] What?

[08:49:12] Don't like it?

[08:49:15] Then I

[08:49:16] can change into something else.

[08:49:22] No need.

[08:49:24] This is okay.

[08:49:28] I know

[08:49:29] your Cultivation Core is rock-solid..

[08:49:32] Normal trials are no good against you.

[08:49:37] But,

[08:49:38] we've still got to follow

[08:49:40] the necessary procedures.

[08:49:51] Look,

[08:49:52] there's a fire!

[08:49:54] Brother Li,

[08:49:56] there's a fire!

[08:49:57] It's on fire!

[08:49:58] Brother Li.

[08:49:59] The place is on fire! Do something, Brother Li!

[08:50:06] If this is all you've got,

[08:50:08] you might as well give up now.

[08:50:12] So you came prepared.

[08:50:30] Kill! Kill! Kill!

[08:50:42] I've seen a lot of illusions.

[08:50:45] I'm numb to them.

[08:50:48] Oh really?

[08:50:49] How about this?

[08:50:53] After we return,

[08:50:54] shall we become cultivation partners?

[08:50:59] But we

[08:51:01] just met.

[08:51:02] You...

[08:51:05] What's done is done,

[08:51:06] if you try to run away,

[08:51:08] I'll kill you.

[08:51:20] Why're you glaring at me?

[08:51:22] Don't tell me you never had such thoughts back then.

[08:51:33] Forget it.

[08:51:36] Fair enough.

[08:51:38] You seem to know quite a few girls anyway.

[08:51:49] How about...

[08:52:11] Well?

[08:52:12] Who do you like?

[08:52:15] Stop.

[08:52:16] Had enough fun yet?

[08:52:21] He's mad.

[08:52:22] Finally, he got angry.

[08:52:25] Next, I wanted

[08:52:28] to let you feel

[08:52:29] as if you're living as eternally as the heavens.

[08:52:33] But, teasing you

[08:52:35] is just too boring.

[08:52:40] Okay,

[08:52:42] let's cut to the chase.

[08:52:45] I'll just ask you one question.

[08:52:47] If you already have the answer in your heart,

[08:52:49] I'll disappear.

[08:52:51] What's up?

[08:52:52] You don't trust me?

[08:52:55] I'm your Heart Demon.

[08:52:57] I know

[08:52:58] what you're thinking.

[08:53:01] You can't deceive me,

[08:53:04] just as I can't deceive you.

[08:53:09] What do you want to ask?

[08:53:13] The most important question.

[08:53:15] Let's get

[08:53:17] started.

[08:53:21] So this is how you've been doing it.

[08:53:27] This belongs to me now.

[08:53:30] Go to hell.

[08:53:35] My good disciple,

[08:53:36] I'll take care of this for you,

[08:53:40] you may rest in peace.

[08:53:46] You crafty boy,

[08:53:48] I was wondering, how'd you manage to get so much Golden Lightning Bamboo?

[08:53:57] Your vial,

[08:53:59] your Magic Treasures

[08:54:01] now belong to me.

[08:54:19] Stop searching,

[08:54:22] it's right here.

[08:54:24] I know what you've been through.

[08:54:27] Life is like playing chess, once you make a move, you never regret it.

[08:54:29] It's like an arrow shot, never turning back.

[08:54:31] And you said,

[08:54:32] you didn't want to give up, you won't, and you do not.

[08:54:35] Anyway,

[08:54:37] you're still alive

[08:54:38] because of this.

[08:54:41] Be it fate or coincidence,

[08:54:46] everything starts

[08:54:48] from the day

[08:54:51] you got this little green vial.

[08:54:53] You wouldn't be here today

[08:54:55] if it weren't for it.

[08:54:57] I...

[08:54:58] Without it,

[08:54:59] you'd just be your average village boy, nothing special.

[08:55:03] Tell me,

[08:55:05] who are you?

[08:55:09] When faced with a tough question, you go silent again.

[08:55:12] Think carefully before answering.

[08:55:15] You can't run away this time.

[08:55:23] Don't forget to write letters home.

[08:55:25] Don't worry, Mother.

[08:55:28] Brother Li.

[08:55:32] It's okay.

[08:55:33] I can protect him.

[08:55:35] You can't protect him forever.

[08:55:44] Boss.

[08:55:46] You're here again.

[08:55:47] You're here every month, right on time.

[08:55:49] Father, Mother, Xiaomei,

[08:55:52] here's this month's allowance.

[08:55:54] It's not a lot, so spend it wisely.

[08:55:58] Better, harder.

[08:56:00] Joining the Seven Mysteries Sect

[08:56:02] is your good fortune.

[08:56:03] This is a good chance for you.

[08:56:06] Yes.

[08:56:14] It would be great if I could learn some martial arts.

[08:56:21] Time is running out.

[08:56:22] If you want to survive,

[08:56:23] you can't give up.

[08:56:26] (Blinking Sword Technique)

[08:56:45] Thank you.

[08:56:47] Wake up,

[08:56:48] Zhang Tie! Wake up!

[08:56:52] Han Li,

[08:56:53] are you leaving?

[08:56:55] After all that's happened,

[08:56:57] do you really think I can stay here?

[08:57:08] Maybe the world is big

[08:57:11] and dangerous,

[08:57:14] but I still want

[08:57:19] to keep moving forward.

[08:57:29] Along the way,

[08:57:30] I may face countless

[08:57:33] encounters and partings,

[08:57:36] struggles and choices.

[08:57:38] And there will be

[08:57:40] coincidences and good luck.

[08:57:42] I will grab these opportunities

[08:57:45] with both hands.

[08:57:50] This is...

[08:58:02] You...

[08:58:04] You're not from around here, are you?

[08:58:06] This is Wuligou Village in Qingniu Town,

[08:58:08] Outsider,

[08:58:09] it's quite rare.

[08:58:13] But

[08:58:13] you look like someone of great ability.

[08:58:15] I hope I could

[08:58:17] be like you someday.

[08:58:19] Oh right, my name is Second Fool.

[08:58:26] You

[08:58:30] can make it.

[08:58:33] Perhaps the lower the starting point is,

[08:58:36] when a real chance to change your destiny comes your way,

[08:58:39] the more you'll want to keep it.

[08:58:41] There's nothing shameful about this.

[08:58:43] - Han. - Han.

[08:58:45] Junior Han, Han Li, Junior Han.

[08:58:48] As long as you know where you want to go,

[08:58:51] and remember where you started from.

[08:58:54] I think

[08:58:56] this is my answer.

[09:00:49] Esteemed members,

[09:00:51] I hereby announce

[09:05:56] (Thank you, to those who followed this story that summer.)

[09:06:00] (Thank you, to those who are following this animation this summer.)

[09:06:04] (Thank you!)

[09:06:10] (Episode 158 Return to Tiannan Season 1)

[09:06:15] (Watch with Headphones for Better Viewing Experience)

[09:06:23] Fellow Han,

[09:06:25] you're the Supreme Elder of our sect,

[09:06:28] the entire eastern foothills of Mount Cloudy Dream,

[09:06:30] you get to pick any spot you want

[09:06:31] for your cultivation sanctuary.

[09:06:34] Yeah.

[09:06:35] Why not

[09:06:36] move closer to where we are?

[09:06:38] We could be neighbors.

[09:06:40] Yeah, yea.

[09:06:41] Right?

[09:06:44] Fellow Han, you're a Nascent Soul cultivator,

[09:06:46] so we've got to make sure we've got you covered in every way.

[09:06:49] Indeed.

[09:06:57] We'll take care of it.

[09:06:59] Ah, right!

[09:07:00] We're offering this as a congrats gift.

[09:07:25] Everything's packed, Master.

[09:07:27] We're all set to move into the new cave.

[09:07:31] When did I say anything about moving caves?

[09:07:41] Wait,

[09:07:42] those two Supreme Elders are being quite stingy.

[09:07:45] All Nascent Soul cultivators should get a new cave.

[09:07:47] It's not like that.

[09:07:48] Elder Lu said

[09:07:49] he could tell I'm not into unnecessary fuss,

[09:07:51] so he gave me this Sky Spring Peak along with two subsidiary peaks.

[09:07:56] But

[09:07:57] what about the disciples at Sky Spring Peak?

[09:08:00] They'll pick another mountain peak,

[09:08:02] and call it Sky Spring Peak.

[09:08:04] This place is called Green Bamboo Peak.

[09:08:11] That really does seem like something the Supreme Elder would do.

[09:08:25] I felt like my cultivation wasn't good enough,

[09:08:28] but now that I've reached Nascent Soul,

[09:08:32] and you'd been inside for so long,

[09:08:33] how to open the Ding,

[09:08:35] you must know something about it.

[09:08:37] What exactly is inside?

[09:08:44] I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you, Han.

[09:08:48] This Ding

[09:08:49] had been sitting in the Void Heaven Hall for ages.

[09:08:53] During this time,

[09:08:54] people came to pull the Ding,

[09:08:56] and searched for treasures.

[09:08:58] Every now and then,

[09:08:59] they'd snatch up one or two treasures.

[09:09:02] Year after year,

[09:09:04] it was only giving, never receiving.

[09:09:07] Last time, what you saw in the Void Heaven Hall

[09:09:11] were the last remaining ancient treasures.

[09:09:14] You mean

[09:09:15] it's empty?

[09:09:17] I'm hoping it's a cauldron,

[09:09:18] maybe it's just a really big black one.

[09:09:21] It doesn't matter if it's a cauldron or a pot,

[09:09:23] we can't even use it to cook porridge.

[09:09:25] Well,

[09:09:26] This Void Heaven Ding

[09:09:27] is a Heavenly Spiritual Treasure.

[09:09:30] What is a Heavenly Spiritual Treasure?

[09:09:31] Isn't it just an Ancient Treasure?

[09:09:38] Not all Ancient Treasures are considered Heavenly Spiritual Treasures.

[09:09:44] In the old days,

[09:09:47] At most,

[09:09:49] 50–60 of these Ancient Treasures can be considered Spiritual Treasures.

[09:09:59] They were

[09:10:01] said to be able to create storms at sea

[09:10:03] and change the stars.

[09:10:08] And whenever a Spiritual Treasure emerged,

[09:10:10] it would be like the Void Heaven Ding,

[09:10:13] sparking immense conflict in the world.

[09:10:20] Honestly, I'm not sure what makes this Ding so special.

[09:10:27] Here's the thing,

[09:10:28] even its Concomitant Treasure

[09:10:30] is something as powerful as the Celestial Ice Flames.

[09:10:33] So,

[09:10:35] this Ding

[09:10:36] has got to be something special.

[09:10:40] So the Celestial Ice Flames

[09:10:41] is a Concomitant Treasure to this Ding.

[09:10:43] Exactly.

[09:10:46] Back then,

[09:10:49] it was because Celestial Ice Flames on the Ding was activated,

[09:10:52] I managed to escape.

[09:10:54] You might not be able to control the Ding

[09:10:58] until you've fully refined the flames.

[09:11:01] At the very worst,

[09:11:04] even just swinging it to hit someone

[09:11:06] would be very hurt.

[09:11:15] But

[09:11:16] I thought,

[09:11:19] Master, your

[09:11:20] little green vial

[09:11:21] was also some kind of Heavenly Spiritual Treasure.

[09:11:24] So, do you know where this green vial came from?

[09:11:33] Nah.

[09:11:35] This treasure

[09:11:37] has a much more complex history.

[09:11:39] Its ability to speed up the growth of

[09:11:41] would be more than enough to surpass all spiritual treasures.

[09:11:44] After all, spiritual treasures merely

[09:11:46] enhance the natural laws of a single world,

[09:11:50] but they can't actually go against the heavens.

[09:11:53] I think,

[09:11:54] only in the Spirit World

[09:11:56] or a higher world like the Immortal World

[09:11:58] could refine

[09:12:00] this kind of treasure.

[09:12:09] I'm not sure how I knew this,

[09:12:11] but I just did.

[09:12:13] Maybe

[09:12:15] it's related to my lost memories.

[09:12:18] Spirit World,

[09:12:19] Immortal World.

[09:12:26] Beyond this world,

[09:12:28] there truly are other worlds.

[09:12:40] (Nine Heavens)

[09:12:46] Alright,

[09:12:47] I need to have a Closed Door Training

[09:12:48] to solidify my cultivation.

[09:12:49] Unless it's a matter of life and death,

[09:12:51] don't disturb me.

[09:12:53] As expected of you, Master.

[09:12:56] If you're not sure,

[09:12:57] start with some closed-door training.

[09:13:01] Got it,

[09:13:02] I'll take care of everything.

[09:13:25] Well done,

[09:13:26] Nascent Soul manifestation successful,

[09:13:28] it's been a great fit for my mind and spirit.

[09:13:30] I also know Soul Body Excursion.

[09:13:39] What's wrong?

[09:13:40] Anything happened?

[09:13:43] Not quite.

[09:13:45] After you'd been in the meditation chamber for about half a month,

[09:13:49] Martial Uncle Mu came to visit,

[09:13:53] I thought you knew her,

[09:13:56] so I shapeshifted into your form

[09:13:59] to talk with her.

[09:14:05] It's my fault for being a blind as a bat,

[09:14:07] if I have offended you,

[09:14:09] I beg your forgiveness, Senior.

[09:14:11] I wanna ask

[09:14:15] if you'd like to do me a favor,

[09:14:18] I'd be happy to return the favor in any way I can.

[09:14:21] Look at her gesture,

[09:14:23] could she be here to seek an apprenticeship?

[09:14:25] I cannot make decisions for my master,

[09:14:27] so I'll have to decline for now.

[09:14:33] If it's about becoming my disciple,

[09:14:35] forget about it,

[09:14:36] I won't take on any disciples.

[09:14:43] And then?

[09:14:44] What's the real problem here?

[09:14:46] You've got a lot of insight, Master.

[09:14:49] It's not a huge problem,

[09:14:53] just a minor

[09:14:57] hiccup.

[09:15:00] Put that thought out of your mind.

[09:15:02] You useless boy.

[09:15:06] Greetings, Senior Han.

[09:15:08] We're all from the same sect.

[09:15:09] Why are you kneeling? You may rise.

[09:15:12] My foolish son and I were ignorant,

[09:15:14] and offended you.

[09:15:17] I take my son to beg for forgiveness.

[09:15:24] What do you mean?

[09:15:26] When I got to Drifting Cloud Sect,

[09:15:28] it was Fellow Daoist Feng who welcomed me.

[09:15:30] You're not offensive at all.

[09:15:31] Elder Feng,

[09:15:32] weren't you having a Closed Door Training for reaching Nascent Soul?

[09:15:36] Senior, don't mock me, please.

[09:15:39] I said I'm trying to reach Nascent.

[09:15:41] It was just an act for those other factions,

[09:15:45] so they wouldn't disdain our Drifting Cloud Sect.

[09:15:49] Now that we've got you,

[09:15:50] such a heaven-sent prodigy,

[09:15:53] our Drifting Cloud Sect might be about to make a comeback.

[09:15:59] Thanks for your future guidance to these disciples.

[09:16:04] This man does care about the sect,

[09:16:06] and he's not one to just flatter people.

[09:16:08] Drifting Cloud Sect isn't particularly strong,

[09:16:10] but it's got some unique traditions

[09:16:11] and a unique character.

[09:16:13] That was part of why I chose this place.

[09:16:17] Fellow Feng, I'm flattered.

[09:16:19] Since I've joined the Drifting Cloud Sect,

[09:16:21] these matters are my duty.

[09:16:24] As for the matter regarding Martial Niece Mu, Mu Fairy,

[09:16:28] our family has called off the engagement with the Mu Family.

[09:16:31] Our two families didn't know

[09:16:33] that she'd become your personal concubine.

[09:16:37] What?

[09:16:38] Personal concubine?

[09:16:40] What concubine?

[09:16:45] Farewell.

[09:17:09] Some people

[09:17:11] might only see your achievements,

[09:17:15] but they don't know about your years of arduous cultivation,

[09:17:19] living a life of discipline

[09:17:21] and self-control,

[09:17:23] and you're not interested in women.

[09:17:25] It's hard for most people to understand

[09:17:28] the devotion to the Dao.

[09:17:38] If you're interested in finding a partner for dual cultivation,

[09:17:41] it's okay that I'd got one for you

[09:17:43] someday.

[09:17:49] No worries.

[09:17:53] That Miss Mu has been wanting to see you,

[09:17:56] I'm not sure how to handle it.

[09:17:58] So I've kept her waiting for now.

[09:18:00] She likes draping herself in the flag

[09:18:02] to frighten others without telling me,

[09:18:05] then let's skip it.

[09:18:07] She's gotten what she wanted.

[09:18:09] Let her go back.

[09:18:32] The cold aura is pretty intense,

[09:18:34] with my current Nascent Soul stage cultivation,

[09:18:36] it shouldn't be harmful as long as I'm not hit.

[09:19:10] The secret technique recorded in the Dark Moon Arts

[09:19:12] is the safest way to refine this fire.

[09:19:14] But this flame is so cold

[09:19:15] that even a little bit of it will take a long time to refine,

[09:19:18] and it has to be nurtured within the body for several years

[09:19:19] before mastering it.

[09:19:21] But once mastered,

[09:19:23] it'll be a super effective tool against opponents of the same rank.

[09:19:33] Still not behaving?

[09:20:16] Whether it's the devouring ability,

[09:20:17] or its resilience,

[09:20:19] it outshines the three-colored flying insect,

[09:20:21] and exudes an imposing air of ferocity.

[09:20:28] Its body is pure gold,

[09:20:30] almost but not quite fully golden.

[09:20:33] If I hadn't set restrictions in advance,

[09:20:35] it might have come back to bite me eventually.

[09:20:37] Before they grow any stronger,

[09:20:39] I've got to find better ways to control these insects.

[09:20:47] They say

[09:20:48] the Brightsight Water only works on low-level disciples.

[09:20:50] But I think

[09:20:52] it's probably a matter of dosage.

[09:20:53] If I had enough...

[09:21:20] That worked a bit.

[09:21:22] Again.

[09:22:20] You are...

[09:22:24] My master wants you to come.

[09:22:44] Episode 159

[09:22:48] Watch with Headphones for Better Viewing Experience

[09:22:59] Greetings, Senior Han.

[09:23:01] Martial Uncle Mu, it's been a while.

[09:23:04] I've just finished my Training,

[09:23:05] and now I've been accused

[09:23:07] of taking a betrothed female cultivator as my concubine.

[09:23:10] Rumors like that

[09:23:11] can really hurt my reputation.

[09:23:14] My bad for

[09:23:16] tarnishing your honorable name.

[09:23:18] I'll take whatever punishment you decide.

[09:23:22] Forget about reputation or honor.

[09:23:24] You took good care of me in the herb garden,

[09:23:27] and I've hidden my true cultivation level from you all this time.

[09:23:29] Now that all these rumors are out there,

[09:23:32] I'm sure you've heard them.

[09:23:36] Now,

[09:23:37] I have no choice but to accept this situation,

[09:23:39] or people will think

[09:23:41] that I, a newly promoted Nascent Soul Elder

[09:23:42] can't even protect a Foundation Establishment female cultivator,

[09:23:44] it's more likely to invite trouble

[09:23:46] and disturb cultivation.

[09:23:48] Do you get it?

[09:23:49] Senior, my bad,

[09:23:52] I'm here

[09:23:53] to submit myself

[09:23:54] to your judgment.

[09:24:05] Azure Essence Sword Art Manual

[09:24:08] I'll give you two options.

[09:24:11] The first one is,

[09:24:12] join my ranks.

[09:24:14] At Sky Spring...

[09:24:15] Oh no,

[09:24:16] train at Green Bamboo Peak.

[09:24:19] I've never taken n disciples before,

[09:24:20] but I can show you the ropes when it comes to cultivation.

[09:24:22] However, I have to put a restriction on you

[09:24:25] to make sure you don't accidentally spill the beans.

[09:24:28] As for the second one...

[09:24:30] Senior Han,

[09:24:33] I choose the second one.

[09:24:43] You sure about that?

[09:24:44] If so,

[09:24:45] then the public will

[09:24:47] officially recognize you as a concubine.

[09:24:48] You can still change your mind.

[09:24:53] I have been

[09:24:55] devoted to cultivation

[09:24:58] since I joined this sect as a child.

[09:25:01] Drifting Cloud Sect

[09:25:01] Every plant and tree on Sky Spring Peak

[09:25:03] are all like family to me.

[09:25:06] Other people's gossip

[09:25:07] doesn't concern me.

[09:25:10] But because of my clan's order,

[09:25:13] they only want me to marry.

[09:25:14] Finish a marriage alliance.

[09:25:16] I thought that I might lose my freedom,

[09:25:18] and be tied to someone I didn't love,

[09:25:22] so I boldly used your name before telling you.

[09:25:26] All the time

[09:25:27] we spent together at Sky Spring Peak

[09:25:30] was the most cherished memory for me.

[09:25:32] This carefree life

[09:25:35] is the freedom I yearned for most.

[09:25:37] As long as you don't send me away,

[09:25:39] I'm willing to have my spiritual senses sealed,

[09:25:41] serve by

[09:25:43] your side for my lifetime,

[09:25:45] and be devoted to the Dao.

[09:25:49] Carefree life,

[09:25:52] freedom, I heard them again.

[09:25:54] All things in this world

[09:25:55] are endlessly varied,

[09:25:57] but people's needs

[09:25:59] are strangely similar.

[09:26:08] Fair enough,

[09:26:11] I promise you.

[09:26:20] Just follow me,

[09:26:22] let's see if you can find the freedom you want.

[09:26:28] Thanks for the generosity, Senior.

[09:26:35] As for your cave,

[09:26:36] feel free to choose any spot on the subpeak.

[09:26:39] Just call me Young Master.

[09:26:42] After all, I'm only about 200 years old,

[09:26:43] you always called me 'Elder'.

[09:26:45] I'm not so old.

[09:26:49] Yes.

[09:26:50] As you command, Young Master.

[09:27:07] How generous of you, Master.

[09:27:08] You even grant her freedom,

[09:27:11] but people might think

[09:27:12] you're charmed by her looks,

[09:27:17] or you take her as a concubine

[09:27:21] for using some dual cultivation technique.

[09:27:22] I don't care what they think.

[09:27:24] Didn't it make clear that

[09:27:25] I, the newly promoted young Nascent Soul cultivator,

[09:27:28] have a reputation for arrogance, lechery, and unreasonableness?

[09:27:31] They might think twice before bothering me.

[09:27:33] Perfect.

[09:27:35] Yes, yes.

[09:27:37] For someone as distinguished,

[09:27:39] handsome Nascent Soul talent like you,

[09:27:43] should take the lead,

[09:27:45] break the mold,

[09:27:47] and avoid being

[09:27:48] controlled by others.

[09:27:51] But

[09:27:54] you're actually cold on the outside but warm inside.

[09:27:59] Did it bring back any old memories for you?

[09:28:12] If a tool spirit is too smart,

[09:28:14] she'll end up getting sealed away.

[09:28:16] That hurts!

[09:28:18] Besides,

[09:28:20] don't you quite like her?

[09:28:22] That's why you secretly begged for her.

[09:28:25] Don't put all the blame on me.

[09:28:30] I wouldn't say I quite like her.

[09:28:34] It's just that

[09:28:37] during these twenty years of your Closed Door Training,

[09:28:40] Miss Mu was the only one

[09:28:42] who would occasionally visit the herb garden.

[09:28:44] Moreover,

[09:28:47] her personality

[09:28:48] has always given me

[09:28:50] a strangely familiar feeling.

[09:28:53] How should I put it?

[09:28:56] She's longing

[09:28:59] for liberation and freedom,

[09:29:01] whatever it takes.

[09:29:04] I kinda feel the same way.

[09:29:14] So without realizing it,

[09:29:17] I cared about her,

[09:29:19] and we ended up talking a lot.

[09:29:21] Did I cause you any trouble?

[09:29:27] Well,

[09:29:28] she also lost her memory,

[09:29:30] and had been trapped in the Void Heaven Ding for so many years.

[09:29:32] She must be feeling a bit lonely, huh?

[09:29:39] No.

[09:29:40] But

[09:29:41] promise me,

[09:29:43] you won't do it again.

[09:29:48] I'll place a restriction on her.

[09:29:50] We should keep the secrets

[09:29:53] of this cave from her for now.

[09:29:54] It's for her own good.

[09:29:56] In a few more years,

[09:29:58] we'll really see what she's all about.

[09:30:02] Oh right,

[09:30:04] take care of your own mess.

[09:30:06] When the time is right,

[09:30:08] explain everything to her.

[09:30:10] Don't drag me into more karma.

[09:30:18] I can tell

[09:30:20] the Green Bamboo Peak will get lively.

[09:30:23] But

[09:30:24] it's not bad to have this sometimes.

[09:30:33] Time

[09:30:35] cultivation.

[09:30:37] This sword art is said to have thirteen levels.

[09:30:39] But beyond the tenth level,

[09:30:40] I couldn't see the content

[09:30:42] for Nascent Soul Stage before.

[09:30:44] It looks like it's meant to stop cultivators

[09:30:45] from getting too caught up in achieving goals

[09:30:46] and going overboard.

[09:30:48] So there is a restriction placed on it.

[09:31:08] This is

[09:31:11] Tai Geng Sword Formation.

[09:31:12] This incredible skill

[09:31:14] requires an unbelievable number of sword lights to set up the formation,

[09:31:17] at least over a hundred.

[09:31:20] I see now.

[09:31:21] Green Bamboo Bee Cloud Swords,

[09:31:23] Sword Shadow Light Splitting Technique.

[09:31:24] The first few chapters of Azure Essence Sword Art Manual

[09:31:26] laid the foundation for this sword formation.

[09:31:29] Seventy-two flying swords and four illusory sword lights

[09:31:32] form a huge formation of three hundred and sixty sword lights.

[09:31:37] Any cultivator below Nascent Soul Final Stage facing this formation

[09:31:39] would find it impossible to escape unscathed.

[09:31:41] With further cultivation,

[09:31:43] I can manifest more sword lights,

[09:31:45] and then killing Nascent Soul Final Stage cultivators wouldn't be impossible.

[09:31:49] If I could master this formation,

[09:31:51] I'd be unstoppable across Tiannan.

[09:31:57] But

[09:31:58] to make it as deadly as possible,

[09:32:00] I need to mix a rare material

[09:32:02] called Geng Essence into each flying sword.

[09:32:05] Geng Essence.

[09:32:09] Geng Essence?

[09:32:11] This is the famous Sharp Metal Treasure

[09:32:13] in the cultivation world.

[09:32:17] Just a little piece

[09:32:20] can make a Magic Treasure sharper,

[09:32:22] and double its power.

[09:32:31] It's a must for cultivators who use

[09:32:35] flying daggers and swords.

[09:32:37] Han, you need that much of it?

[09:32:44] Our Drifting Cloud Sect doesn't have it.

[09:32:48] Such rare materials,

[09:32:50] are probably not going to be found

[09:32:52] if they're just entrusted to regular disciples.

[09:32:55] How about this?

[09:32:56] I'll go to the Heavenly Dao Coalition

[09:32:58] and ask the two leaders, Long Han and Feng Bing

[09:33:00] to help find it.

[09:33:01] Cheng, thanks for your righteous assistance,

[09:33:03] I'll remember it.

[09:33:04] It's okay, we're all family.

[09:33:11] Han,

[09:33:11] there you are.

[09:33:12] I went to your cave but you were not there.

[09:33:15] These are gifts we prepared for Miss Mu,

[09:33:18] please accept them for her.

[09:33:19] Yea, yeah.

[09:33:21] Take them.

[09:33:23] I heard you were talking about some rare material.

[09:33:27] Why go through all that trouble?

[09:33:28] After all, in two years,

[09:33:29] Vast Sky City will host the Tiannan Top Trading Event.

[09:33:32] A lot of Nascent Soul cultivators from Tiannan will gather there.

[09:33:35] We're bound to make some good finds.

[09:33:38] Exactly!

[09:33:40] How could I have forgotten about this?

[09:33:44] Tiannan Top Trading Event?

[09:33:46] All the people at the event

[09:33:48] are all well-known Nascent Soul cultivators from Tiannan,

[09:33:52] so it's the perfect place to trade rare materials.

[09:33:55] The Nine Kingdoms Alliance is the host

[09:33:57] because that region

[09:33:58] is always under threat from the Mulan Race.

[09:34:00] Whether it's the Righteous Dao Sects or the Demonic Sects,

[09:34:03] or even our Heavenly Dao Coalition,

[09:34:04] all must show them due respect,

[09:34:06] making it the safest location.

[09:34:10] Indeed.

[09:34:11] If we can't find it even

[09:34:13] at an event as big as this,

[09:34:15] I'm afraid we'll have to try our luck

[09:34:19] in the legendary Jin Kingdom.

[09:34:20] But it's a bit

[09:34:22] too far, isn't it?

[09:34:26] Han,

[09:34:27] you just became Nascent Soul,

[09:34:29] so you might not be that familiar

[09:34:31] - with these complex issues yet. - Indeed.

[09:34:32] Why don't let we explain everything to you?

[09:34:34] Thanks so much for your generous guidance.

[09:34:37] No problem.

[09:34:39] Let's go somewhere else?

[09:34:40] Alright, let's go.

[09:34:42] After you.

[09:35:08] The Tiannan cultivation world is packed with

[09:35:10] countless sects and factions.

[09:35:14] Ordinary cultivators could only see parts of the whole picture,

[09:35:16] not the whole thing,

[09:35:18] for their whole lives.

[09:35:20] Indeed.

[09:35:22] Deity Transformation cultivators

[09:35:23] haven't been seen in the world for ages.

[09:35:26] A Nascent Soul cultivator

[09:35:27] is the best of cultivation in this world,

[09:35:29] and their level is way higher than that of a low-level cultivator.

[09:35:33] Every Nascent Soul cultivator

[09:35:35] is like the ultimate combat force for a sect,

[09:35:39] making sure it can keep on going.

[09:35:58] As the saying goes,

[09:35:59] all below Nascent Soul cultivators are like ants.

[09:36:01] This may sound harsh,

[09:36:02] but it's the truth.

[09:36:03] Just like you, Han,

[09:36:06] as a Nascent Soul, Supreme Elder of our Drifting Cloud Sect,

[09:36:09] you can mobilize the entire sect's resources.

[09:36:13] You'll start to see the perks

[09:36:15] of this position as you go along.

[09:36:17] No wonder Nascent Soul cultivators hardly ever get into real combat

[09:36:21] or fight to the death.

[09:36:22] Who would give up

[09:36:23] such easily accessible sect privileges?

[09:36:25] Exactly. So-called sects and factions

[09:36:28] are just a way

[09:36:30] for Nascent Soul cultivators to compete for resources.

[09:36:33] Think about all the major wars in cultivation history.

[09:36:35] How many Nascent Soul cultivators actually died?

[09:36:37] Well,

[09:36:38] battles against those barbaric Mulan people don't count.

[09:36:42] Nascent Soul cultivators get all the benefits of Tiannan,

[09:36:46] but they also have to

[09:36:47] deal with external threats.

[09:36:49] It's indeed

[09:36:51] the natural order of things.

[09:36:55] There's also a hierarchy

[09:36:57] among Nascent Soul cultivators.

[09:37:00] It doesn't seem to depend only on cultivation stage.

[09:37:02] Exactly.

[09:37:03] Strength, influence, and potential are all essential.

[09:37:07] The Ten Great Sects and the Ten Great Cultivators

[09:37:09] are the main players

[09:37:10] in keeping the balance

[09:37:12] in the Tiannan region.

[09:37:17] Supreme Yang Sage from the Righteous Dao's Supreme Truth Sect,

[09:37:21] the Shared Joy Demon from the Demonic Sect's Shared Joy Sect,

[09:37:23] and Wei Wuya from the Nine Kingdoms Alliance's Intention Change Sect

[09:37:26] are the only three Nascent Soul Final Stage cultivators in Tiannan,

[09:37:30] and they're known as the Three Great Cultivators of Tiannan.

[09:37:33] They're the real leaders

[09:37:34] of their respective factions.

[09:37:38] The Shared Joy Sect's Shared Joy Demon,

[09:37:40] not that Yunlu,

[09:37:42] is another person.

[09:37:43] As for the leader of our Heavenly Dao Coalition,

[09:37:46] it is jointly held by Long Han and Feng Bing from Phoenix Cry Sect.

[09:37:50] They're cultivation partners,

[09:37:53] and at the peak of Nascent Soul, Pinnacle Stage of the Middle Stage.

[09:37:56] When they team up,

[09:37:58] they're right up there with the Three Great Cultivators.

[09:38:03] Moreover,

[09:38:04] Righteous Dao sects like Tianji Sect and Haoran Pavilion,

[09:38:08] Demon Sect's Ghost Spirit Sect and Shield Spirit Sect,

[09:38:10] and Heavenly Dao Coalition's Navigation Sect and Ancient Sword Sect

[09:38:13] are the core strength of their factions.

[09:38:16] Each one is protected by strong Nascent Soul Middle Stage cultivators.

[09:38:19] As for the Nine Kingdoms Alliance,

[09:38:20] it's pretty unique.

[09:38:22] They've absorbed a bunch of small and medium-sized sects in recent years.

[09:38:26] Ghost Spirit Sect.

[09:38:28] I still have scores to settle with them.

[09:38:30] Apart from the hidden elders of these major sects,

[09:38:34] there are also renowned rogue cultivators,

[09:38:36] so it's best not to provoke them lightly.

[09:38:38] Take that Divine Sorrow Monster for example,

[09:38:40] he's notoriously temperamental,

[09:38:41] and quick to resort to violence.

[09:38:49] But Han, don't stress too much.

[09:38:52] You've been Nascent Soul at such a young age,

[09:38:55] you'll surely make a name for yourself sooner or later.

[09:38:57] Then everyone will think twice before messing with you.

[09:39:00] No one will dare provoke you recklessly.

[09:39:03] As the saying goes,

[09:39:04] a man's reputation is like a shadow that follows him wherever he goes.

[09:39:07] If you can avoid

[09:39:08] getting into unnecessary conflicts,

[09:39:11] it'll be good

[09:39:12] for everyone involved.

[09:39:15] Sects and rogue cultivators have

[09:39:17] totally different ways of doing things.

[09:39:18] From now on,

[09:39:19] I'll be reaching out to you often

[09:39:21] to learn more.

[09:39:22] It's a pleasure.

[09:39:24] Han,

[09:39:24] we're family, so no need for any formal stuff between us.

[09:39:29] At that time, in Vast Sky City,

[09:39:30] all the major factions and figures will gather,

[09:39:33] and you might get to witness them yourself.

[09:39:36] But the trading event won't start for another two years.

[09:39:40] Do you have any plans?

[09:39:43] Now that my Nascent Soul has taken form,

[09:39:44] I'm planning to travel around nearby.

[09:39:46] There are also some promises I made to others

[09:39:48] that I need to keep.

[09:39:51] Excellent.

[09:39:52] Cultivation Core is all set,

[09:39:54] and free of Heart Demon.

[09:39:56] Han,

[09:39:56] go for it.

[09:39:58] If you run into any problems,

[09:39:59] just know

[09:40:00] we've got

[09:40:02] your back.

[09:40:10] Fu Family

[09:40:15] Return to Tiannan Season 2 Episode 160

[09:40:20] Watch with Headphones for Better Viewing Experience

[09:40:35] Hurry up.

[09:40:44] - Cheers. - Bottoms up.

[09:40:45] Tasty, isn't it, sir?

[09:40:48] Your dish is ready.

[09:40:49] Okay.

[09:40:55] Get out!

[09:40:59] Han,

[09:41:00] why did you use spiritual sense on that mortal?

[09:41:05] Do you have

[09:41:06] a problem with that guy?

[09:41:08] This waiter

[09:41:09] has a spiritual root.

[09:41:11] His aptitude isn't great,

[09:41:12] he might still reach Qi Condensation Stage

[09:41:14] at the third or fourth Level.

[09:41:16] Spiritual root...

[09:41:18] Han, you can do this

[09:41:20] without even touching him.

[09:41:21] It's honestly such an amazing skill!

[09:41:23] Amazing.

[09:41:24] I'm flattered.

[09:41:25] My skill doesn't really count as an amazing skill.

[09:41:27] I just happened to practice a certain secret art.

[09:41:29] If someone of such mediocre aptitude as this waiter

[09:41:33] entered the cultivation world,

[09:41:34] they'd get bullied.

[09:41:37] He needs the right kind of support.

[09:41:40] We came to the Mount Zidao

[09:41:42] to attend Patriarch Fu's birthday celebration

[09:41:46] and look for the perfect opportunity.

[09:41:48] And,

[09:41:49] I heard even the Demonic Flame Sect sent an envoy here,

[09:41:51] so we'd better make a good impression.

[09:41:53] But Han,

[09:41:54] since you're from Xu Country,

[09:41:57] why not try your luck with the Ghost Spirit Sect?

[09:42:01] What brings you to our Yuanwu Country?

[09:42:06] The Ghost Spirit Sect is pretty exclusive.

[09:42:08] I'd love to join,

[09:42:09] but there's just no way for someone like me.

[09:42:13] It's not easy.

[09:42:14] But don't worry, Han,

[09:42:16] it's the right choice to

[09:42:17] come to us in Yuanwu Country.

[09:42:19] Exactly.

[09:42:20] These days,

[09:42:21] we rogue cultivators have to stick together.

[09:42:27] Enjoy your meals,

[09:42:28] I'm heading to my room.

[09:42:46] Big brother.

[09:42:54] Rogue cultivator?

[09:42:55] What rogue cultivator

[09:42:56] carries that many bulging storage pouches?

[09:43:00] Just look at his flying sword,

[09:43:02] it's clearly a top-grade magical tool.

[09:43:04] He's probably a disciple of some minor sect.

[09:43:08] Big brother, you got it.

[09:43:11] No matter how sharp this Han is,

[09:43:13] he'd never suspect

[09:43:15] that we're concealing our true cultivation stage.

[09:43:19] Our Foundation Establishment Middle Stage power

[09:43:22] makes taking out a Foundation Establishment Initial Stage cultivator

[09:43:25] a piece of cake.

[09:43:28] Exactly.

[09:43:30] This guy

[09:43:31] has the misfortune of running into us,

[09:43:34] the Peng Yi Fiends.

[09:43:45] Yeah, indeed.

[09:43:47] I can't take this anymore,

[09:43:48] these two are so loud.

[09:43:51] Just cut them down.

[09:43:53] It's just like 200 years ago at the Great South Meeting,

[09:43:55] when they came up with these sneaky plans to go after rogue cultivators.

[09:43:58] No need to rush.

[09:44:00] Let's enjoy the show.

[09:44:02] The three Core Formation cultivators of this Fu family are no threat.

[09:44:05] But

[09:44:06] some core members have already joined the Demonic Flame Sect,

[09:44:09] which complicates things a bit.

[09:44:11] If I let some of them escape

[09:44:13] and they go to the Six Sects,

[09:44:15] they might rise from the ashes.

[09:44:17] That would mean I'd fail my promise to Xin Ruyin.

[09:44:24] Mount Zidao is covered in poisonous miasma,

[09:44:26] and if unsuspecting people wander in,

[09:44:28] they might not make it out alive.

[09:44:31] Every year, a lot of people die in the Fu Family's Purple Miasma Poison Formation.

[09:44:37] I guess it was just bad luck.

[09:44:40] Purple Miasma Poison Formation?

[09:44:41] Han,

[09:44:42] you've never heard of Purple Miasma Poison Formation?

[09:44:47] The Fu Family

[09:44:48] hired a bunch of

[09:44:49] formation masters to set up this formation

[09:44:51] and show how powerful they are.

[09:44:53] Mortals who pass through this formation,

[09:44:56] will decay into nothing

[09:44:59] within three days.

[09:45:00] What a ruthless family that treats human life like it's nothing!

[09:45:04] Han,

[09:45:14] there's another stunning view deep in this valley.

[09:45:17] The streams there are crystal clear,

[09:45:19] with exotic flowers blooming everywhere.

[09:45:20] Even the legendary Divine Paradise

[09:45:23] doesn't measure up.

[09:45:24] Master,

[09:45:25] there's a deep valley up ahead.

[09:45:27] But I can sort of feel a spiritual aura with restriction.

[09:45:30] These two are total pros at this con artist stuff.

[09:45:32] and they've clearly put in a lot of preparation.

[09:45:34] At this pace,

[09:45:36] we'll be arriving at nightfall.

[09:45:38] Fine.

[09:45:38] No more pretending.

[09:45:40] You two,

[09:45:42] I think the scenery here isn't half bad,

[09:45:45] and it's practically deserted.

[09:45:46] There's no need to go deep into the valley.

[09:45:48] If someone commits murder here

[09:45:50] and gets rid of the evidence.

[09:45:53] No one would bother us,

[09:45:55] and no one would ever know,

[09:45:57] right?

[09:45:57] Right.

[09:45:59] No,

[09:46:00] no, no.

[09:46:01] Fellow Han,

[09:46:03] is there some sort of misunderstanding?

[09:46:08] How interesting.

[09:46:10] I really didn't think that I would see a murder-robbery attempt

[09:46:12] while I was taking a quick nap here.

[09:46:15] Who is this? I can't sense where she is.

[09:46:17] But this is a bit ridiculous.

[09:46:20] Two little Foundation Establishment cultivators

[09:46:22] dare to rob a Nascent Soul cultivator?

[09:46:25] Am I still dreaming?

[09:46:29] Who's playing the mysterious card here?

[09:46:32] Where is the Nascent...

[09:46:32] Nascent Soul cultivator?

[09:46:34] It has to be him.

[09:46:36] His partner is trying to intimidate us on purpose.

[09:46:38] What level of cultivation has this person actually reached?

[09:46:40] Even with my Spiritual Sense trained with the Great Development Technique,

[09:46:42] I still can't sense where she is.

[09:46:44] You two Foundation Establishment juniors shouldn't waste your effort.

[09:46:46] If I could be found by people like you,

[09:46:49] I might as well just go crazy and die.

[09:46:51] This Nascent Soul cultivator has a pretty good spiritual sense.

[09:46:54] If you were a little more powerful,

[09:46:56] you might've seen my true form.

[09:46:58] But I'm hungry now.

[09:47:01] Can you make yourselves some snacks?

[09:47:02] He's really a Nascent Soul cultivator!

[09:47:04] Have mercy, Senior!

[09:47:05] I failed to recognize your greatness. Please forgive my ignorance.

[09:47:09] Little brother, what are you doing?

[09:47:10] Don't run away!

[09:47:11] You can't escape from a Nascent Soul cultivator!

[09:47:15] Spare me, Senior!

[09:47:15] It was all his idea!

[09:47:17] I didn't have anything to do with this!

[09:47:29] Mercy, Senior!

[09:47:30] Please have mercy!

[09:47:31] I've got elderly parents and young kids to take care of!

[09:47:33] Take it easy on me, Senior!

[09:47:36] What a waste,

[09:47:38] even the spirit of a Foundation Establishment cultivator

[09:47:41] is a tonic substance.

[09:47:52] There's no need to hide, Honored One.

[09:47:54] I'll unveil your presence now.

[09:47:56] How did you find me?

[09:47:58] My Radiant Transformation Art

[09:47:59] is something that a Nascent Soul Initial Stage cultivator would never be able to see.

[09:48:03] A simple trick drew you out...

[09:48:06] Ah, so it was a bluff!

[09:48:11] Very well then.

[09:48:13] I'm curious to know what your nascent soul

[09:48:16] will taste like.

[09:48:19] What kind of demon is it?

[09:48:21] Here it comes.

[09:48:23] Let's start with an appetizer.

[09:48:42] She eats spirits to improve her cultivation.

[09:48:44] What exactly are you?

[09:48:45] No need to rush.

[09:48:47] Once I eat you,

[09:48:48] you'll know what I am.

[09:48:50] Tell me, if I eat you,

[09:48:52] would I level up to Nascent Soul Middle Stage right away?

[09:49:52] These petals seem

[09:49:53] to have a life of their own,

[09:49:55] as if they hunger for prey.

[09:50:09] Golden lightning,

[09:50:11] it looks quite appetizing.

[09:50:13] If you can eat me,

[09:50:15] give it a try.

[09:50:26] Bring it on!

[09:51:00] This flavor...

[09:51:02] Isn't this the Divine Devilbane Lightning?

[09:51:04] This is incredibly valuable!

[09:51:11] A Nascent Soul Initial Stage Cultivator

[09:51:12] has access to such a heavenly treasure?

[09:51:15] But I don't practice demonic arts,

[09:51:19] this thing is useless

[09:51:21] against me.

[09:51:31] Not bad.

[09:51:32] But

[09:51:33] that's still not enough.

[09:51:40] Try again.

[09:51:44] I told you

[09:51:46] this lightning won't work on me.

[09:51:47] Why won't you

[09:51:49] give up already?

[09:51:58] What's this?

[09:52:01] Let me out,

[09:52:02] and I'll spare your life.

[09:52:13] Condensing the Divine Devilbane Lightning into a net

[09:52:15] to trap the enemy.

[09:52:16] This is probably the first time doing this since the Golden Lightning Bamboo

[09:52:18] appeared in this world.

[09:52:21] You'll need at least ten bamboo pieces

[09:52:23] to make one of these lightning nets.

[09:52:25] Whether it's Celestial Ice Flames

[09:52:27] or Wind Spirit Energy,

[09:52:28] Divine Devilbane Lightning can trap them all.

[09:52:31] So, not only does lightning naturally suppress demonic arts,

[09:52:34] but it also has the remarkable effect of sealing spiritual aura.

[09:52:36] How dare you trap me!

[09:52:38] Let me go now!

[09:52:41] Or I'll extract and refine your soul,

[09:52:43] make you wish you were dead.

[09:52:46] Extract and refine my soul,

[09:52:47] make me wish I were dead?

[09:52:49] It seems like you don't really understand the situation you're in.

[09:52:51] Let me help you see things as they really are.

[09:53:07] Oh right,

[09:53:08] I forgot this.

[09:53:13] Master.

[09:53:14] Master,

[09:53:16] is this

[09:53:17] an invitation?

[09:53:21] Let's go.

[09:53:22] Time for the banquet.

[09:53:49] The aura signature is gone.

[09:53:53] Someone.

[09:53:59] Tell all disciples around Yuanwu Country,

[09:54:02] if you can't track down

[09:54:03] that escaped Supreme Wood Spirit Infant in three months,

[09:54:06] both crimes will be punished,

[09:54:07] kill yourselves for this.

[09:54:15] Just be careful

[09:54:17] and make sure the other sects don't find out.

[09:54:20] Got it,

[09:54:21] Elder Dongmen.

[09:54:23] Wait,

[09:54:24] it's better if you and Yunzhi go together,

[09:54:27] you two have Wood Attribute Spiritual Root,

[09:54:29] which is naturally attuned to the Supreme Wood Spirit Infant.

[09:54:31] If you get close enough,

[09:54:33] you might be able to sense it.

[09:54:35] Be careful,

[09:54:36] the person who restrained the Spirit Infant is no pushover.

[09:54:38] Once you find the trail,

[09:54:40] I'll handle

[09:54:42] this guy myself.

[09:54:44] As you command.

[09:54:59] Here,

[09:55:03] Yin'er,

[09:55:05] it's time for your medicine.

[09:55:20] I'm not good at alchemy,

[09:55:22] I finally got these two spiritual plants

[09:55:24] and could only prepare them poorly.

[09:55:27] But don't worry,

[09:55:29] that Golden Zoysia I got at a fair price from Han,

[09:55:32] I've already asked a master alchemist in the city to refine it into elixirs.

[09:55:38] Darling,

[09:55:39] you don't need to blame yourself.

[09:55:41] You've got a knack for refining tools.

[09:55:44] If you were also skilled in alchemy,

[09:55:46] then you're uniquely blessed by heaven?

[09:55:50] That's right.

[09:55:53] Wait,

[09:55:55] you just called me,

[09:55:56] darling?

[09:55:58] No,

[09:56:00] you misheard.

[09:56:15] We promised Han

[09:56:17] we'd restore this ancient transportation formation,

[09:56:19] but you shouldn't push yourself too hard.

[09:56:22] It's pretty late,

[09:56:23] so you can keep studying it tomorrow.

[09:56:30] I promised him,

[09:56:31] so I must keep it.

[09:56:46] I promised her,

[09:56:52] so I must keep it.

[09:56:57] Return to Tiannan Season 2 Episode 161

[09:57:00] Watch with Headphones for Better Viewing Experience

[09:57:12] Welcome, fellow.

[09:57:13] Congratulations!

[09:57:15] Welcome, fellow.

[09:57:16] Welcome.

[09:57:18] Welcome!

[09:57:19] - Congrats! - Please come in.

[09:57:21] Congratulations!

[09:57:23] Please.

[09:57:25] Welcome, fellow.

[09:57:27] Please come in.

[09:57:35] One premium spiritual plant

[09:57:38] from Fellow Li of Monastery.

[09:57:41] 300 Spiritual Stones from Fellow Song of Huge Whale Sect.

[09:57:44] There've been over a hundred years of fighting between Righteous Dao and Demonic Sects.

[09:57:46] Lots of sects and families have been killed in this struggle,

[09:57:48] or there wouldn't be so many rogue cultivators at Foundation Establishment stage.

[09:58:05] Some important figures are here.

[09:58:13] Two esteemed seniors from Demonic Flame Sect, welcome.

[09:58:15] This is the powerful Core Formation cultivator?

[09:58:17] So overwhelming.

[09:58:18] Indeed.

[09:58:21] Seniors,

[09:58:22] please come inside.

[09:58:24] This way.

[09:58:27] I've heard that

[09:58:29] the Fu Family offered their famous Fu Twin Beauties

[09:58:32] as concubines to these two Elders a long time ago.

[09:58:34] It's odd,

[09:58:35] how does the Fu family have all these beautiful descendants?

[09:58:38] I heard that the Head of the Fu family has a weird habit.

[09:58:41] He always takes new concubines during his birthday parties.

[09:58:44] And of course,

[09:58:45] he has a ton of descendants.

[09:58:47] Oh right,

[09:58:47] the Head of the Fu family hasn't shown up today yet.

[09:58:50] Maybe,

[09:58:52] he's off indulging himself somewhere.

[09:59:01] Clan Leader,

[09:59:02] such a joyous occasion,

[09:59:03] don't be too upset.

[09:59:05] Upset my ass!

[09:59:07] Fu Tiancheng

[09:59:10] has wasted so much of our family's resources over the years.

[09:59:13] He only managed to get his position as an elder in the Master Artisan Sect.

[09:59:16] He was supposed to be our family's backup plan.

[09:59:20] Now that our connection with the Heavenly Dao Coalition is gone.

[09:59:22] We've got the Demonic Flame Sect's protection,

[09:59:24] but we still need to establish ties with the Shield Spirit Sect.

[09:59:31] Third Brother,

[09:59:33] for some reason,

[09:59:34] I've been feeling restless lately,

[09:59:38] like something major is about to happen.

[09:59:42] Has our Fu family

[09:59:44] gotten on the wrong side

[09:59:46] of any big shots or major sects recently?

[09:59:49] With the support of the Demonic Flame Sect,

[09:59:52] haven't we slaughtered all those noble families in the country in recent years?

[09:59:55] Even if someone resents us,

[09:59:57] they can't cause any trouble anymore, Elder Brother.

[10:00:00] It's too bad we didn't manage to get rid of them completely,

[10:00:04] like the Qin family.

[10:00:07] Look at this, Elder Brother.

[10:00:09] What is this?

[10:00:13] The Qin family's Ancestral Magic Treasure.

[10:00:16] Elder Brother,

[10:00:17] a few days ago, I found their hideout.

[10:00:21] I gathered our clansmen and direct disciples,

[10:00:24] and we slaughtered every last one of them.

[10:00:27] The Qin family is all gone?

[10:00:29] Not exactly.

[10:00:31] The Head of the Qin Family's youngest daughter

[10:00:33] is kept alive for you, Elder Brother.

[10:00:36] But that stubborn girl doesn't know chalk from cheese,

[10:00:38] so I severed her cultivation

[10:00:41] and sealed all her meridians.

[10:00:44] For our Clan Leader's 400th birthday celebration,

[10:00:46] it's only natural to make the occasion even more festive.

[10:00:55] Alright, Elder Brother,

[10:00:55] let's go up now.

[10:00:56] The banquet is about to begin.

[10:00:58] Very well.

[10:00:59] Let's go.

[10:01:00] I never expected your Fu Family to not only be allied with the Demonic Flame Sect

[10:01:04] and secretly collude with other demonic sects.

[10:01:07] No wonder you're the boss

[10:01:10] of the whole Yuanwu Country.

[10:01:13] Which distinguished guest visits our Fu family?

[10:01:17] I'm sorry I didn't give you a proper welcome,

[10:01:21] please forgive me.

[10:01:22] No need for any proper welcome.

[10:01:24] I'm showing up today without an invite.

[10:01:47] I don't see any signs of magical power.

[10:01:50] Could it be...

[10:01:52] Don't act rashly.

[10:01:53] This person is probably a Nascent Soul cultivator.

[10:01:55] I just checked the area with my spiritual sense,

[10:01:57] and I found that you two have the highest cultivation in the entire Fu family.

[10:02:01] Senior, we're flattered.

[10:02:04] It's an honor for

[10:02:06] our Fu family to have you, a Nascent Soul Cultivator here.

[10:02:08] So you're the Fu family's Patriarch?

[10:02:11] I dare not.

[10:02:12] Senior, you're here,

[10:02:13] how could I claim to be some Patriarch?

[10:02:16] I am Fu Tianhua, the Head of the Fu family.

[10:02:20] I'm glad I got the right person.

[10:02:21] Since I'm here to collect a debt,

[10:02:23] it makes sense that I should address the head.

[10:02:27] Collect a debt?

[10:02:30] Senior, you gotta be kidding.

[10:02:31] This is my first time

[10:02:33] having the honor of meeting you.

[10:02:36] Maybe there's been some confusion?

[10:02:39] Of course not.

[10:02:40] I should've explained things better,

[10:02:43] so you wouldn't become wronged ghosts in the underworld.

[10:02:46] But you two were making sneaky moves,

[10:02:50] never giving me a chance to speak.

[10:02:53] So

[10:02:54] go to hell first.

[10:02:56] As for the rest of the Fu family's criminals,

[10:02:58] I'll send them all to their doom together.

[10:03:00] He is out to wipe out our Fu family!

[10:03:02] - Elder Brother. - Let's fight him together.

[10:03:03] You...

[10:03:11] You excel at Earth Release Technique.

[10:03:13] The one who got away,

[10:03:14] I'll leave it to you to handle.

[10:03:15] Don't worry, Master.

[10:03:18] I'll be back in a jiffy.

[10:03:25] Guardian Spiritual Beast.

[10:03:33] Fine then,

[10:03:34] Let me see,

[10:03:35] how many evil things have you done?

[10:03:47] Who is this person?

[10:03:48] When has our Fu Family ever provoked a Nascent Soul monster?

[10:03:51] For now, the only thing I can do is run away.

[10:03:54] Should I go to the Demonic Flame Sect or the Shield Spirit Sect?

[10:03:57] Damn it!

[10:03:58] Your Earth Release Technique speed

[10:04:00] is far too slow.

[10:04:03] Why not hand over your head to me?

[10:04:08] Then I'd offer it to my Master,

[10:04:11] just like he asked.

[10:04:20] Why?

[10:04:22] Who are you?

[10:04:23] You're dying,

[10:04:26] - why bother asking? - Who are you?

[10:04:29] Wait,

[10:04:31] don't kill him yet.

[10:04:33] We're sparing him?

[10:04:41] Hand him over

[10:04:44] to me now.

[10:04:52] You do

[10:04:53] have bad luck.

[10:04:58] Those two old foxes from the Fu family

[10:04:59] usually have quite the romantic lives.

[10:05:02] They're all top-grade Cultivation Vessels.

[10:05:04] Maybe they're used to winning us over.

[10:05:08] Steward,

[10:05:10] Why hasn't the head of the family shown up yet?

[10:05:15] Thanks for your patience, everyone.

[10:05:16] The head of the family will be here soon.

[10:05:19] Looks like the head of your family is about to claim another beauty today.

[10:05:21] I wonder which noble lady it'll be this time.

[10:05:26] Come on! Cheers!

[10:05:28] Bottoms up!

[10:05:33] Is this really necessary?

[10:05:39] Snow in June,

[10:05:42] that's rare.

[10:06:12] You know what?

[10:06:13] The young madam from the Qin family

[10:06:15] was so sexy.

[10:06:17] Really?

[10:06:20] Wait.

[10:06:21] Someone's here.

[10:06:24] Who's there? Stop!

[10:06:26] Are you deaf? I said, "Stop there!"

[10:06:28] Now!

[10:06:30] How dare you cause trouble at the Fu Mansion?

[10:06:31] What's up?

[10:06:34] Could it be remnants of the Qin family?

[10:06:35] Kill him.

[10:06:37] Just one person, we can kill him.

[10:06:40] Finish him off.

[10:07:13] What was that noise?

[10:07:15] Sounds like someone's screaming.

[10:07:16] What's going on?

[10:07:18] What... What's happening?

[10:07:20] This...

[10:07:23] My apologies, distinguished guests.

[10:07:25] It must be the guards outside partying.

[10:07:27] Everyone, take a rest.

[10:07:28] I'll give them a stern talking to.

[10:07:34] Activate the Prohibition.

[10:07:36] Let our Patriarch know.

[10:07:37] This is beyond insulting.

[10:07:38] Are you ignoring our Demonic Flame Sect?

[10:07:41] You rascal, how dare

[10:07:42] to cause trouble here?

[10:07:49] Patriarch!

[10:07:50] Rascal?

[10:07:53] Not entirely wrong.

[10:07:54] I'm just an unknown rogue cultivator

[10:07:56] from the Yuanwu Country.

[10:07:58] I came here today

[10:07:59] for one reason,

[10:08:02] to demand justice

[10:08:07] from your Fu family.

[10:08:29] Ruyin.

[10:08:35] Yunxiao.

[10:08:38] What happened?

[10:08:38] It's the people from the Fu family.

[10:08:42] They...

[10:08:44] Luckily,

[10:08:46] I've got the medicine.

[10:08:50] Don't cry.

[10:08:53] Quick, take

[10:08:54] the...

[10:08:57] Take the...

[10:08:58] Medicine.

[10:09:02] Yunxiao.

[10:09:07] No.

[10:09:09] Please no.

[10:09:11] What have we done wrong?

[10:09:15] Darling,

[10:09:17] Senior Han came to visit you the other day.

[10:09:19] I fixed the transportation formation and gave it to him.

[10:09:23] At last, I kept my word.

[10:09:27] I always said you were reckless,

[10:09:29] now that you're gone.

[10:09:31] I don't have much time left.

[10:09:34] Please allow me to be reckless,

[10:09:37] just like you did.

[10:09:45] She's the one who destroyed

[10:09:47] six of our Fu Family branches with formations these past days?

[10:09:50] Who is she?

[10:09:52] Who knows?

[10:09:53] Look, she even put on the wedding attire to save her own skin.

[10:09:59] Elder Brother,

[10:09:59] we got her for you.

[10:10:01] She's quite a beauty.

[10:10:03] Let me see closely

[10:10:05] who's going to stir things up during my birthday party.

[10:10:12] What a pretty girl.

[10:10:15] But

[10:10:16] you went to great lengths to infiltrate my Fu Family Mansion,

[10:10:19] what's your game?

[10:10:25] Tell me,

[10:10:26] who exactly are you?

[10:10:28] How'd you learn so many advanced formations?

[10:10:31] Which family sent you here?

[10:10:33] The Qin Family?

[10:10:34] Or maybe the Hu Family?

[10:10:35] Tell me now!

[10:10:38] Elder Brother, wait!

[10:10:39] Show mercy.

[10:10:41] Are you begging for her?

[10:10:43] Elder Brother,

[10:10:44] just hear me out.

[10:10:47] This woman's clearly got something up her sleeve,

[10:10:50] now that she's in our Fu family's hands.

[10:10:54] We must sever her cultivation,

[10:10:56] seal her meridians

[10:10:59] and grill her good

[10:11:01] before we send her off on her last trip.

[10:11:04] Besides,

[10:11:05] if you're not into this type of woman,

[10:11:08] at least let our men share her, eh?

[10:11:11] Exactly!

[10:11:13] Yeah, share her!

[10:11:17] Let's grill her good and kill her slowly.

[10:11:23] Share her! Let's grill her good and kill slowly.

[10:11:30] Today,

[10:11:33] I'm here to...

[10:11:34] Only to

[10:11:36] get

[10:11:37] justice.

[10:11:52] She sacrificed herself to form the formation.

[10:11:55] I'm the Head of the Fu family,

[10:11:57] as long as I'm still alive,

[10:12:00] the centuries-old legacy of the Fu family

[10:12:03] will stay strong.

[10:12:17] Men of the Fu family,

[10:12:19] come out now, all of you!

[10:12:27] Listen carefully,

[10:12:29] for the next two hours,

[10:12:33] no one

[10:12:34] is allowed to leave this hall,

[10:12:36] or

[10:12:38] you'll meet your death.

[10:12:49] Watch closely,

[10:12:52] don't die too quickly.

[10:13:05] Let's grill her good and kill her slowly.

[10:13:13] We were wrong.

[10:13:15] It's our fault.

[10:13:16] Have mercy on us.

[10:13:20] Sever her cultivation, seal her meridians.

[10:13:23] We were wrong, it's our Fu family's fault.

[10:13:27] I'm begging you, please.

[10:13:29] It's my fault.

[10:13:34] Patriarch.

[10:13:34] Patriarch, save us!

[10:13:39] We were wrong.

[10:13:41] Spare me,

[10:13:43] please.

[10:13:51] We were wrong.

[10:14:08] I'm Xin Ruyin,

[10:14:11] widow of the late Qi Yunxiao.

[10:14:17] Today

[10:14:19] is

[10:14:21] the Fu family's

[10:14:24] doomsday.

[10:15:03] Yunxiao,

[10:15:05] Miss Ruyin,

[10:15:08] I hope

[10:15:10] this wedding toast

[10:15:13] isn't too late.

[10:15:21] Return to Tiannan Season 2 Episode 162

[10:15:25] Watch with Headphones for Better Viewing Experience

[10:15:29] Listen carefully,

[10:15:31] for the next

[10:15:33] two hours,

[10:15:35] no one

[10:15:36] is allowed to leave this hall,

[10:15:38] or

[10:15:40] you'll meet your death.

[10:16:04] It's already dawn,

[10:16:05] has that person left?

[10:16:07] Take... Take a look outside.

[10:16:28] The Fu Family...

[10:16:29] Where are the Fu family members?

[10:16:42] Going out?

[10:16:42] Yeah.

[10:16:44] The mortals living at the mountain's base

[10:16:45] and the errand disciples are still alive.

[10:16:48] Only the direct descendants of the Fu family have died.

[10:16:51] I'm afraid

[10:16:52] it won't be long before this sudden upheaval

[10:16:54] will cause ripples throughout the whole Yuanwu Country's cultivation world.

[10:16:57] The two guardians of the Demonic Flame Sect have also gone.

[10:16:59] It seems this powerful man

[10:17:00] even makes nothing of the Demonic Flame Sect.

[10:17:05] Indeed.

[10:17:06] I guess it's highly possible that this will be swept under the rug.

[10:17:09] Well, they're dead anyway.

[10:17:11] Do any Nascent Soul old monsters stand up for the dead?

[10:17:15] To them,

[10:17:16] they're just tiny ants.

[10:17:19] Let's go.

[10:17:20] We just about managed to escape with our lives.

[10:17:22] Now we should talk about

[10:17:23] how to divide up the Fu family's territory.

[10:18:59] Yunxiao,

[10:19:00] Ruyin,

[10:19:02] you were among the few real friends I ever had.

[10:19:05] Now...

[10:19:07] The Fu family Patriarch has been executed,

[10:19:09] and those wicked direct descendants are also gone.

[10:19:12] The rest of the forces

[10:19:13] are probably going to get gobbled up by others pretty quickly.

[10:19:16] The Fu family

[10:19:17] is no more.

[10:19:20] May you two know this,

[10:19:23] and rest in peace.

[10:19:46] It has a formation prohibition.

[10:19:49] Without Ru Yin's secret technique recorded in her notes,

[10:19:52] it'll self-destruct.

[10:19:55] Could it be

[10:19:55] that she left this for me?

[10:20:14] Senior Han, my apologies,

[10:20:15] I'm still pretty new to cultivation,

[10:20:17] so this was the only way I could get this message to you.

[10:20:20] I wonder if that ancient transportation formation is what you want.

[10:20:24] This prohibition is

[10:20:25] my family's top secret,

[10:20:28] but if you can unlock it,

[10:20:29] I guess you must've reached Core Formation at Final Stage,

[10:20:32] or maybe even the Nascent Soul.

[10:20:35] I know you've had to go through a lot

[10:20:37] to get to where you are,

[10:20:39] but you've still remembered your promise to me

[10:20:42] to get revenge for me and Yunxiao.

[10:20:44] I don't think I can repay you.

[10:20:46] There's a tree in the east garden.

[10:20:48] It was planted by Yunxiao when he was alive.

[10:20:51] Beneath it lies an ancestral record of the My clan.

[10:20:54] I didn't manage to

[10:20:56] get to the bottom of it.

[10:20:58] We offer this

[10:21:00] to repay your great kindness.

[10:21:03] If Yunxiao knows about this in the afterlife,

[10:21:05] he would surely be happy.

[10:21:08] My husband and I want to

[10:21:09] say a huge thank you, Senior.

[10:21:47] Master, it seems like you're pretty concerned about what's written in this jade slip.

[10:21:51] It's likely that one of Ruyin's ancestors left it behind.

[10:21:55] It's got some pretty deep ancient formations from primordial times.

[10:21:59] With my current mastery of formations,

[10:22:01] it just takes time to grasp them all.

[10:22:03] But at the very end,

[10:22:05] it does also contain a really unusual secret technique.

[10:22:08] Secret technique?

[10:22:09] With everything you know,

[10:22:12] is there any kind of secret technique

[10:22:13] that might interest you?

[10:22:15] This technique

[10:22:16] is called Profound Yin Nascent Soul Cultivation Art,

[10:22:18] a real secret art for nurturing a second spirit.

[10:22:21] It can even help you develop

[10:22:23] a second Nascent Soul.

[10:22:27] A second Nascent Soul?

[10:22:28] Really?

[10:22:29] So mystic?

[10:22:31] This can't be some kind of forbidden dark art, right?

[10:22:36] I'll take a closer look when we get back to Drifting Cloud Sect.

[10:22:39] If there are any issues,

[10:22:41] I won't practice it.

[10:22:55] Master,

[10:22:56] we're not on the way to Xi Country, are we?

[10:22:59] Since we've come here,

[10:23:00] let's visit Xu Country.

[10:23:02] After all, that's where I'm from.

[10:23:05] I've got a few worldly matters I need to sort out.

[10:23:08] Otherwise, I'd feel

[10:23:10] pretty unsettled mentally.

[10:23:13] It's good then,

[10:23:15] at this level of cultivation,

[10:23:16] you've really got to cut all your worldly attachments

[10:23:19] and fully pursue the Righteous Dao.

[10:23:21] Okay,

[10:23:22] let's get a move on.

[10:23:50] This is where the Supreme Wood Spirit Infant appeared.

[10:23:53] It's a really evil monster,

[10:23:55] who could possibly restrain it

[10:23:58] without a special Magic Treasure?

[10:24:02] Martial Uncle Liu,

[10:24:03] we're very close to Fu Mansion.

[10:24:05] We did ask the Fu Family about it,

[10:24:07] but soon after,

[10:24:10] the whole Fu Family was massacred.

[10:24:11] Could the Spirit Infant have fallen into the Demonic Flame Sect's hands,

[10:24:13] and they silenced the Fu family

[10:24:14] to cover their tracks?

[10:24:19] You're thinking about this too much.

[10:24:22] The Demonic Flame Sect is known for its ruthless dominance,

[10:24:23] why hide in the shadows?

[10:24:25] It's probably just a coincidence.

[10:24:27] But there's no way

[10:24:29] two Nascent Soul cultivators

[10:24:31] could appear in the same place.

[10:24:33] This could well be the work of the same person.

[10:24:36] Yes,

[10:24:37] but

[10:24:37] I'm just worried that

[10:24:39] this person might be a Nascent Soul cultivator from another sect...

[10:24:41] Why?

[10:24:43] You haven't found a single clue yet,

[10:24:44] and you're already thinking of giving up?

[10:24:46] No, it's not that.

[10:24:48] The Supreme Wood Spirit Infant go away,

[10:24:49] and you're all to blame.

[10:24:53] You're still alive

[10:24:55] thanks to the mercy of the sect.

[10:24:57] Martial Uncle Liu,

[10:24:58] I'm not saying this because I'm scared.

[10:24:59] I'd happily die for the sect

[10:25:01] without hesitation.

[10:25:02] Junior.

[10:25:20] Senior Han,

[10:25:21] the person who restrained the Spirit Infant

[10:25:22] has already headed south.

[10:25:24] We won't be able to catch up to him anytime soon.

[10:25:27] But

[10:25:27] with our cultivation techniques,

[10:25:29] no matter how far it is,

[10:25:30] we can sense the location of the Spirit Infant.

[10:25:32] We just need to track this person's location remotely,

[10:25:35] then report to Patriarch Dongmen.

[10:25:41] You,

[10:25:42] give a detailed account of what happened.

[10:25:44] Got it.

[10:25:48] Martial Uncle Ning and us were escorting the Spirit Infant,

[10:25:51] when we passed through Mount Kunmu,

[10:25:53] Martial Uncle Ning found a reason to send us away

[10:25:56] and disobeyed orders, tried to merge with the Spirit Infant,

[10:25:58] but it ended up possessing him.

[10:26:00] It was only then that...

[10:26:06] Yellow Maple Valley

[10:26:12] Finally,

[10:26:14] I'm back to where I know.

[10:26:19] My name is Han Li.

[10:26:20] I've got the Immortal Token of Yellow Maple Valley.

[10:26:30] I haven't seen this token for ages.

[10:26:35] Get on board.

[10:26:45] Times have changed,

[10:26:47] but the maple forest is still there.

[10:26:50] While, this place

[10:26:51] is never going to welcome any new people on that ship again.

[10:27:09] The great hall of Yellow Maple Valley.

[10:27:14] White Daisy Mountain.

[10:27:18] Hundred Herbs Garden,

[10:27:20] which I looked after with Martial Uncle Ma for ages.

[10:27:25] Everything has changed so much.

[10:27:30] But nothing here has changed.

[10:27:58] I was right.

[10:27:59] I didn't know much back then.

[10:28:01] Now I know for sure that this spring is indeed Spirit Well Water.

[10:28:06] It might be small,

[10:28:08] but now that it's been unearthed,

[10:28:09] I'd take it to my new cave.

[10:28:11] If I have more things of Spirit Well,

[10:28:12] it'd be better.

[10:28:26] Spiritual aura is leaked?

[10:29:06] I want the top credit!

[10:29:15] Don't move!

[10:29:16] No one's rushing anything!

[10:29:18] It's such a shame to waste these puppets.

[10:29:20] This is the limit of their combat power.

[10:29:22] It'd be great

[10:29:24] to get more powerful materials in the future.

[10:29:29] Senior, spare my life.

[10:29:31] I don't mean any harm.

[10:29:32] I beg for your forgiveness, Senior.

[10:29:34] I sensed an unusually strong spiritual aura here,

[10:29:36] so I decided to take a closer look.

[10:29:38] I'm not trying to stand in your way, Senior.

[10:29:42] Oh right,

[10:29:42] I'm Yu Hong,

[10:29:43] and my Young Master is Wang Chan from Ghost Spirit Sect.

[10:29:44] Wang Chan.

[10:29:58] Senior,

[10:29:58] do you know our Young Master?

[10:30:04] Know him?

[10:30:05] We're more than just acquainted.

[10:30:07] We've been

[10:30:09] through life and death together.

[10:30:11] It's just a misunderstanding.

[10:30:12] So you're an old friend of our Young Master.

[10:30:15] I'm sorry that I offended you.

[10:30:17] I had no idea who you were.

[10:30:19] Senior, I beg you to put me down

[10:30:20] and let me apologize properly.

[10:30:25] You've misunderstood.

[10:30:28] When I said 'life and death',

[10:30:30] I meant 'a life-and-death struggle between us'.

[10:30:38] Run!

[10:30:49] They're scattering,

[10:30:51] it's pretty much the same story that year.

[10:31:07] Did I say you could go?

[10:31:25] We can't escape.

[10:31:25] Now,

[10:31:26] set up our formation!

[10:31:32] No! No way.

[10:31:33] Run now!

[10:31:34] Come back.

[10:31:35] The formation is breaking down.

[10:31:47] He didn't chase me.

[10:31:48] Where are you off to?

[10:31:58] Is it really that scary?

[10:32:05] Ghost Spirit Sect.

[10:32:10] A Record of Mortal's Journey to Immortality Return to Tiannan Season 2

[10:32:14] Watch with Headphones for Better Viewing Experience

[10:32:20] Do I look fierce?

[10:32:23] I'd been very cautious.

[10:32:26] How come

[10:32:29] he suddenly passed out?

[10:32:33] Now I totally get it, Ghost Spirit Sect

[10:32:37] does have quite a few Nascent Soul cultivators.

[10:32:40] But

[10:32:41] Wang Chan's still at Core Formation stage.

[10:32:44] He'd better pray he won't meet me.

[10:32:51] Young master! Young master!

[10:32:52] I've just got a Voice Transmission from Soul-Shattering Patriarch.

[10:32:55] He says that someone's causing trouble at our Xu Country branch,

[10:32:58] he wants you to go and see what's happening.

[10:33:01] Soul-Shattering Sage is a bit of a loose cannon.

[10:33:05] Why's he even concerned with such trivial matters,

[10:33:09] given that he's a Nascent Soul monster?

[10:33:11] Which branch is it?

[10:33:13] Young Master,

[10:33:15] it's the Taiyue branch,

[10:33:17] formerly Yellow Maple Valley.

[10:33:22] Yellow Maple Valley?

[10:33:26] What bad luck.

[10:33:31] As a Core Formation cultivator at Final Stage,

[10:33:36] what's the point in getting angry about

[10:33:38] some dead Foundation Establishment trash?

[10:33:40] He said that

[10:33:41] so many years have passed,

[10:33:43] yet he still can't let it go.

[10:33:45] When he tries to reach Nascent Soul,

[10:33:46] who knows how severe his Heart Demon will become.

[10:33:51] What an ugly laugh.

[10:33:55] But if anyone disrespects our Ghost Spirit Sect,

[10:33:58] they'll be in big trouble.

[10:34:00] Bald Elder, Ghost Elder,

[10:34:04] you two take a look at this, please.

[10:34:06] Anyone who tries to start trouble in Ghost Spirit Sect territory

[10:34:10] shall find

[10:34:11] their journey ends here.

[10:34:14] Yes.

[10:34:19] Thanks for your help, fellows.

[10:34:20] Thanks a lot.

[10:34:24] Hey,

[10:34:27] come here.

[10:34:33] You're being a bit idle.

[10:34:35] Why don't you go with them?

[10:34:37] Well, well.

[10:34:38] This was your task, yet you're making me

[10:34:40] do it.

[10:34:41] I did all the work, but you're taking the credit.

[10:34:45] Young Master,

[10:34:46] I've been wronged.

[10:34:47] I've been really busy lately.

[10:34:50] Oh right,

[10:34:51] those people from the Six Sects

[10:34:53] have been getting restless recently,

[10:34:55] especially that Shield Spirit Sect.

[10:34:57] Let me tell you, Young Master,

[10:34:59] I saw this with my own eyes.

[10:35:01] There's a squad of them

[10:35:02] sneaking around,

[10:35:03] making a bit of a racket.

[10:35:04] Mountain Taiyue

[10:35:10] The Spirit Infant has been taken out of Yuanwu Country.

[10:35:14] Right,

[10:35:16] it's in Xu Country.

[10:35:26] Jingzhou

[10:35:50] In the middle of nowhere,

[10:35:53] where it's windy and there's no moon.

[10:35:55] The timing and location couldn't be better.

[10:35:57] It's just a shame

[10:35:59] that

[10:36:04] human unity isn't perfect.

[10:36:22] These three Black Scarf Bandit leaders

[10:36:25] were considered

[10:36:26] some of the most notorious

[10:36:27] in the Jingzhou underworld.

[10:36:30] But this time,

[10:36:31] they're done for.

[10:36:38] If you hadn't seen me off this time,

[10:36:41] I'm afraid this journey home to honor my ancestors

[10:36:44] has become my road to the executioner's block.

[10:36:47] It seems my political rivals

[10:36:49] really do hate me.

[10:36:54] I've caused you problems, Li.

[10:36:57] It's nothing, really.

[10:36:58] What do you say that?

[10:36:59] Our Li family has made it this far

[10:37:04] because we've stood shoulder to shoulder.

[10:37:08] Our families have always supported each other,

[10:37:10] that's what we should do.

[10:37:12] Besides,

[10:37:13] today's fight

[10:37:13] was exhilarating.

[10:37:17] Li,

[10:37:18] you and Uncle Li are like two peas in a pod.

[10:37:21] I don't think I'd be right to compare myself to my dad.

[10:37:25] But our families,

[10:37:26] you're really into your studies and we're into martial arts.

[10:37:28] We're totally on different directions.

[10:37:31] How come our families

[10:37:32] become such close friends?

[10:37:34] Lord,

[10:37:35] all done.

[10:37:47] Li,

[10:37:48] I've also been curious about this,

[10:37:50] so I specifically checked our family records,

[10:37:52] and actually learned some stories from the past.

[10:37:56] Have you heard of

[10:37:58] the Seven Mysteries Sect that dominated Jingzhou a century ago?

[10:38:02] Go on.

[10:38:04] Our ancestors from both families

[10:38:05] were martial brothers in this sect.

[10:38:13] Is this for real?

[10:38:17] Scholarly families

[10:38:19] can be a real bonus.

[10:38:20] Events from over a hundred years ago

[10:38:22] can still be properly recorded,

[10:38:23] and passed down to future generations.

[10:38:26] I was also curious about this matter,

[10:38:28] so I sent someone to investigate

[10:38:30] and indeed uncovered something fascinating.

[10:38:33] Well,

[10:38:34] back then, I had a Great-Uncle

[10:38:36] who might have been an immortal.

[10:38:44] What did you say?

[10:38:47] I said

[10:38:48] my Great-Uncle

[10:38:49] might be

[10:38:50] an immortal.

[10:38:55] Your Great-Uncle is an immortal?

[10:38:59] Then my Great-Uncle

[10:39:00] must be heavenly troops!

[10:39:05] When you worshipped ancestors,

[10:39:06] didn't your Great-Uncle send you a dream?

[10:39:10] Han, oh, Han,

[10:39:12] in this world,

[10:39:14] there are only sect elites,

[10:39:16] no immortals here.

[10:39:23] A plate of peanuts, please.

[10:39:24] Coming right up, your peanuts.

[10:39:27] Is this Qingniu Town,

[10:39:30] right?

[10:39:31] Qingniu Town?

[10:39:32] Our town's Han Family Town,

[10:39:34] was renamed over a hundred years ago.

[10:39:36] Just so you know, Sir.

[10:39:40] But you've come at just the right time lately.

[10:39:42] Minister Han from the Ministry of Works

[10:39:44] returns home to pay respects to his ancestors.

[10:39:45] People from all walks of life will come to pay their respects.

[10:39:47] Talking about how the Han family got so powerful

[10:39:49] has only been going on for about a hundred years.

[10:39:52] But now here in Jingzhou of Xu Country,

[10:39:54] they've become pretty well known.

[10:39:56] Waiter!

[10:39:58] Come here!

[10:39:59] Coming right away!

[10:40:01] What can I do for you, Sir?

[10:40:03] Bring me all your best dishes.

[10:40:05] Okay! Coming right up!

[10:40:11] Everything's changed so much.

[10:40:18] Kites!

[10:40:19] Don't miss it!

[10:40:20] Brother, this one's pretty! This one!

[10:40:23] Come over here!

[10:40:24] You two, be careful!

[10:40:26] Be gentle with your sister.

[10:40:27] These two kids

[10:40:28] had been here before.

[10:40:30] They love it, I'll give you a discount.

[10:40:31] Thank you.

[10:40:32] Thanks for your patronage.

[10:40:34] Don't go too far.

[10:40:35] We're heading home now.

[10:40:36] Be careful.

[10:40:38] - So beautiful. - Honestly...

[10:40:39] Hold my hand.

[10:40:40] Brother, shall we fly it when we get back?

[10:40:42] It's getting dark.

[10:40:43] Let's go home for dinner first.

[10:40:45] We'll go fly it tomorrow.

[10:40:47] Deal!

[10:40:48] You're the best, brother.

[10:40:49] Let's go!

[10:40:51] Be careful.

[10:41:00] The earthen road from my memories

[10:41:02] is all paved with cobblestones.

[10:41:05] Low walls and thatched cottages

[10:41:08] have been replaced by grand mansions.

[10:41:09] Xiaomei,

[10:41:12] guess what I've made for you?

[10:41:14] What is it?

[10:41:16] A slingshot.

[10:41:19] Take aim...

[10:41:23] Yes! Direct hit!

[10:41:24] Li, let's go.

[10:41:25] Come help me chop wood.

[10:41:26] Hold the sickle for me.

[10:41:29] Gonna go chop some firewood!

[10:41:31] Don't swing that around, you little boy.

[10:41:34] That little mountain village I remember

[10:41:36] has completely vanished.

[10:41:52] Han Family Ancestral Hall

[10:41:56] Han Family

[10:41:57] Ancestral Hall?

[10:42:33] There are so many ancestral tablets.

[10:42:36] But the names inscribed on them

[10:42:39] are all unfamiliar to me.

[10:42:52] Virtue of Our Ancestors Lives On

[10:43:21] （Memorial Tablet of Han Tiansheng）（Memorial Tablet of Mrs. Han）

[10:43:24] （Memorial Tablet of Han Xiaomei）

[10:43:40] Righteous Dao is pretty ruthless,

[10:43:43] but it can't handle feeling homesick.

[10:43:46] All this longing

[10:43:48] was just buried deep in my heart.

[10:43:50] Even after traveling so far on this path of cultivation,

[10:43:54] I still can't fully let go of all my worldly attachments.

[10:44:05] Father,

[10:44:07] Mother,

[10:44:10] Xiaomei.

[10:44:13] I, Han Li,

[10:44:16] am back.

[10:44:24] Hurry up.

[10:44:25] Li,

[10:44:26] you're too impatient.

[10:44:29] Didn't we agree that after the ancestral worship,

[10:44:31] I'd lend you the records?

[10:44:33] You're so anxious.

[10:44:34] Han,

[10:44:35] you said, on the next few pages of the records,

[10:44:37] that it talks about some 'Steps' technique, right?

[10:44:40] I'd love to see it sooner, of course.

[10:44:42] What was it called again? Shifting... Steps?

[10:44:44] Well,

[10:44:46] such valuable records,

[10:44:47] why keep them enshrined in the ancestral hall?

[10:44:50] Wouldn't it be terrible if they got stolen?

[10:44:52] Skilled martial artists guard the ancestral hall 24/7.

[10:44:55] Ordinary people wouldn't stand a chance.

[10:44:57] Even if they succeeded,

[10:44:59] wouldn't they fear retaliation from our Han family?

[10:45:05] Minister Han, I've seen

[10:45:06] a lot of your tactics.

[10:45:09] Wait for me!

[10:45:12] Li!

[10:45:13] Do you think you can master the Steps?

[10:45:14] Mind your own business.

[10:45:15] I'll definitely have a go at learning this.

[10:45:33] You know him?

[10:45:37] You vile thief!

[10:45:39] You chased us all the way here.

[10:45:49] Take this punch!

[10:46:01] Li,

[10:46:02] are you injured?

[10:46:04] I'm fine.

[10:46:05] This person's martial arts

[10:46:07] are unbelievably advanced,

[10:46:08] but he doesn't come across as dangerous.

[10:46:13] Brave Sir,

[10:46:14] I am Han Rui,

[10:46:16] Minister of Works and head of the Han Family.

[10:46:19] Have you come to kill me, Sir?

[10:46:22] Head of the Han Family?

[10:46:32] Impossible.

[10:46:35] What are your intentions?

[10:46:36] Why have you disguised yourself

[10:46:38] as my Han ancestor in the portrait?

[10:46:46] You recognize me?

[10:46:48] Today I'm not wearing a disguise.

[10:46:51] This is what I normally look like.

[10:46:53] Is that not allowed?

[10:46:57] There are actually quite a few people with similar features.

[10:47:00] But to disguise yourself as my Han family ancestor

[10:47:02] and appear in this ancestral hall,

[10:47:04] you're the only one who'd dare do it.

[10:47:08] Good response.

[10:47:10] You've got what it takes to be a court official.

[10:47:13] The Han family is doing really well,

[10:47:15] and it's all down to you, the younger generations.

[10:47:18] But

[10:47:20] how did you know what I look like?

[10:47:23] Ever since I left home as a child,

[10:47:25] my family hadn't known what I looked like as a grown-up.

[10:47:29] Could it be

[10:47:31] that someone from the Seven Mysteries Sect drew it?

[10:47:33] Seven Mysteries Sect?

[10:47:34] Or maybe

[10:47:36] it was Li Feiyu?

[10:47:43] How do you know my ancestor's name, Sir?

[10:47:48] Your surname is Li?

[10:47:51] Yes.

[10:47:53] You keep saying you're our ancestor,

[10:47:56] so you must know about this granduncle of ours,

[10:47:58] who left home as a child

[10:47:59] and later disappeared without a trace.

[10:48:01] But all this happened over two hundred years ago.

[10:48:04] Why

[10:48:06] don't you look nearly that old!

[10:48:24] An immortal!

[10:48:26] Magic!

[10:48:34] You...

[10:48:36] You're

[10:48:37] really Great-Uncle!

[10:48:40] Return to Tiannan Season 2 Episode 164

[10:48:44] Watch with Headphones for Better Viewing Experience

[10:48:49] An Immortal...

[10:48:51] Magic...

[10:49:00] You're...

[10:49:03] You're really Great-Uncle!

[10:49:08] I never thought

[10:49:10] our descendants would become so close.

[10:49:16] It's so unbelievable, Li Feiyu.

[10:49:21] Long time no see,

[10:49:23] my dear brother.

[10:49:26] It seems that afterward,

[10:49:28] your wish came true,

[10:49:29] as you got to marry your beloved Zhang Xiu'er.

[10:49:33] Since then,

[10:49:35] your life has been both happy and prosperous.

[10:49:38] The world is always changing,

[10:49:39] the wise stay sober while others sleep in folly.

[10:49:42] Yet alas,

[10:49:43] even with those medicines I left you,

[10:49:46] you couldn't enjoy a peaceful old age.

[10:49:50] That Essence Extraction Pill

[10:49:51] really does hurt you.

[10:49:55] Luckily, the Li Family bloodline is still going strong,

[10:49:58] and our household now thrives.

[10:50:00] It's been worth living.

[10:50:12] May I ask, Senior,

[10:50:14] could it be that

[10:50:16] the lifelong buddy mentioned in my ancestor's letters

[10:50:21] was you, Great-Uncle?

[10:50:35] Senior,

[10:50:37] in this ancestral hall

[10:50:38] lie preserved relics used by my ancestors.

[10:50:40] Only the Han family's current head can see them,

[10:50:43] while others can never distinguish them.

[10:50:45] If you recognize these items...

[10:50:48] Show them to me.

[10:50:50] I'm just wondering how many I'll remember.

[10:50:52] Senior, please wait a moment.

[10:51:20] These things, I see.

[10:51:23] I never thought I'd see them again.

[10:51:27] Except for a few items

[10:51:28] likely bought after I left home,

[10:51:30] everything else looks familiar.

[10:51:32] This is

[10:51:33] the wooden hairpin my father made for my mother.

[10:51:36] This was Xiaomei's favorite slingshot.

[10:51:39] I made

[10:51:40] all her toys.

[10:51:43] She was made about kites,

[10:51:45] but

[10:51:46] I'm rubbish at this.

[10:51:56] This is...

[10:52:09] My dear ancestor,

[10:52:11] if I've done any improprieties before,

[10:52:12] I beg your forgiveness.

[10:52:14] I'm Han Rui, your unworthy descendant,

[10:52:15] pay respects to you, Great-Uncle.

[10:52:34] When my family was really poor,

[10:52:36] we couldn't even afford meals.

[10:52:39] That's why I had to leave home and join the Seven Mysteries Sect.

[10:52:42] At first, I just wanted to provide for my family,

[10:52:46] but later on...

[10:52:49] But

[10:52:51] I never thought that after leaving home for centuries,

[10:52:53] the Han family would become a well-known noble clan.

[10:52:55] If I'd been born into the current Han family,

[10:52:59] maybe,

[10:53:01] I wouldn't have started my cultivation journey.

[10:53:11] Destiny works in mysterious ways.

[10:53:13] You can't have everything in this world.

[10:53:28] You two may rise.

[10:53:30] As your Great-Uncle from the Han family,

[10:53:31] I haven't been back home for years.

[10:53:34] To the current Han family,

[10:53:35] I'm pretty much a stranger now.

[10:53:37] No, it's not like that.

[10:53:38] It's our failure as descendants.

[10:53:39] Now that we know you're still there,

[10:53:42] we should send our youths to do our filial duty.

[10:53:45] Your filial duty?

[10:53:48] That won't be necessary.

[10:53:51] I've come back one last time

[10:53:53] just to take a look

[10:53:55] at my final attachment in this mortal world,

[10:53:59] to cut

[10:54:00] all my ties to this world.

[10:54:03] I'm so glad to have seen the Han family

[10:54:05] and the descendant of my dear friend,

[10:54:06] you're all safe and sound.

[10:54:07] I can leave with peace of mind.

[10:54:11] Great-Uncle,

[10:54:12] you're leaving so soon?

[10:54:14] Wouldn't you give our younger members of the clan some guidance

[10:54:16] before you go?

[10:54:19] No need.

[10:54:21] When I first got here,

[10:54:23] I had a good look around with my spiritual sense.

[10:54:24] The Han Family has loads of members,

[10:54:27] but none of them have a spiritual root.

[10:54:29] There's no real connection between us.

[10:54:31] Or,

[10:54:33] I'd be happy to take one or two younger people to cultivate.

[10:54:38] It seems we lack the fortune

[10:54:40] to follow you in seeking immortality.

[10:54:42] It's fine,

[10:54:43] it's always been rare

[10:54:44] for someone to have a spiritual root anyway.

[10:54:47] And honestly,

[10:54:49] I think the Han and Li families

[10:54:51] should steer clear of the cultivation world.

[10:54:54] After all, the cultivation world is a bit rocky at the moment.

[10:54:57] Families get destroyed

[10:54:59] and whole clans get wiped out

[10:55:00] happen frequently.

[10:55:03] If the whole family got dragged into this,

[10:55:06] it would be disastrous.

[10:55:15] We'll remember your advice, Great-Uncle.

[10:55:20] When you entered here earlier,

[10:55:22] I noticed you're quite close to our Han family.

[10:55:24] Back when I and Li Feiyu

[10:55:26] were sworn brothers.

[10:55:28] As the Great-Uncle of Han family,

[10:55:29] I can't treat the Li family's descendants badly.

[10:55:34] These elixirs

[10:55:35] are really good for martial artists,

[10:55:38] just take them.

[10:55:48] Senior, Li Feng here,

[10:55:50] I want to say a big thank you

[10:55:52] on behalf of the whole Li family.

[10:56:33] This sword

[10:56:34] was forged from my spiritual insects,

[10:56:36] I'll leave it here.

[10:56:38] If the Han family is ever in danger of being wiped out,

[10:56:42] our clansmen should head for this ancestral hall.

[10:56:46] With this blade,

[10:56:47] they might just save the day.

[10:56:50] But remember,

[10:56:52] I'm not the one who's calling the shots.

[10:56:54] Once it's been unsheathed,

[10:56:55] except for those within the shrine,

[10:56:57] no living thing within the town

[10:56:58] will survive.

[10:57:02] Understood.

[10:57:04] For ordinary mortals,

[10:57:06] this is no trifling matter.

[10:57:09] Just be really careful when you use it.

[10:57:16] This jade pendant is used to activate the spiritual sword.

[10:57:18] From now on,

[10:57:19] it'd be looked after by the Han family's leaders, one after the other.

[10:57:22] Understood.

[10:57:24] Remember,

[10:57:25] the sword's got to stay in this ancestral hall.

[10:57:28] The more you use it,

[10:57:29] the weaker its spiritual protection will get.

[10:57:31] After you've used it three times,

[10:57:33] the spiritual sword will go back to spiritual insects and disappear.

[10:57:35] I think

[10:57:37] three chances to save the Han family

[10:57:41] should be enough.

[10:57:43] After all,

[10:57:44] nothing prosperous lasts forever.

[10:57:48] The Han family enjoyed centuries of glory,

[10:57:51] then they just sort of disappeared.

[10:57:54] Maybe that's for the best.

[10:57:55] We'll follow your instructions, Great-Uncle.

[10:58:02] Since you recognized me,

[10:58:04] there must be a portrait of me in this ancestral hall.

[10:58:08] Let me take a look.

[10:58:11] Great-Uncle,

[10:58:12] this way, please.

[10:58:54] The genealogy shows,

[10:58:56] during the famine and war in Xu Country,

[10:58:59] loads of women and kids from our clan were made homeless.

[10:59:02] Great-Uncle, your parents and sister had compassionate hearts,

[10:59:05] they went above and beyond to help their neighbors

[10:59:07] and looked after orphaned children.

[10:59:09] If it weren't for your family,

[10:59:11] I'm afraid the Han bloodline would have been

[10:59:13] cut off a long time ago.

[10:59:17] Afterward,

[10:59:19] all descendants of the Han family

[10:59:21] worshipped your lineage as our common ancestor.

[10:59:56] My wish has come true,

[10:59:58] I'm no longer attached to anything.

[11:00:01] These elixirs,

[11:00:02] you two should take them now.

[11:00:04] They'll make sure you live a long time.

[11:00:06] The secret of the Gold-Consuming Spiritual Sword

[11:00:08] must be kept under lock and key.

[11:00:11] As for

[11:00:12] our meeting today,

[11:00:18] consider it just a dream.

[11:01:07] Han,

[11:01:12] did we have a bit too much to drink last night?

[11:01:17] My head is still spinning.

[11:01:18] Mine too.

[11:01:22] It's like

[11:01:24] I had a dream,

[11:01:27] where

[11:01:29] my ancestor appeared to me,

[11:01:32] he manifested.

[11:01:34] I think I had a dream too,

[11:01:38] but it's all hazy.

[11:01:41] It must be from traveling day and night lately,

[11:01:43] we're both pretty tired.

[11:02:31] This...this...

[11:02:32] This is...

[11:02:36] My ancestor was here,

[11:02:39] my ancestor manifested.

[11:02:41] By the grace of our forefathers,

[11:02:43] as a descendant of the Han family,

[11:02:44] I pay my respects to you, Great-Uncle.

[11:02:47] Good heavens.

[11:02:51] The Han family really had

[11:02:55] an immortal in their ancestry.

[11:03:16] Is this Jiayuan City?

[11:03:29] Sugar-coated haws.

[11:03:33] You won't want to miss this!

[11:03:36] Sugar-coated haws.

[11:03:41] Just like Qingniu Town,

[11:03:43] where the familiar sights

[11:03:45] are now full of unfamiliar faces.

[11:04:01] Li Mansion

[11:04:05] Master, what are you searching for?

[11:04:07] Nothing important.

[11:04:09] Years have flown by

[11:04:11] and everything has changed.

[11:04:12] After all, even the Seven Sects of Xu Country

[11:04:14] have gone.

[11:04:16] Let alone these mundane affairs.

[11:04:18] But

[11:04:19] you've been unusually quiet these past few days.

[11:04:22] Master, you've been pretty preoccupied lately.

[11:04:24] I didn't want to disturb you.

[11:04:25] I know my place.

[11:04:28] Let's go.

[11:04:29] There's nothing else to see here.

[11:04:30] Let's get back to Drifting Cloud Sect.

[11:04:33] What's wrong, Master?

[11:04:36] There are a few little rats.

[11:04:40] Return to Tiannan Season 3 Episode 165

[11:04:45] Watch with Headphones for Better Viewing Experience

[11:04:56] Martial Uncles,

[11:04:58] has

[11:04:59] something happened?

[11:05:01] We just tracked the person's location

[11:05:03] and found the Spirit Infant

[11:05:05] had suddenly stopped moving.

[11:05:06] I'm not sure why.

[11:05:08] Could we have alerted the restricted Spirit Infant,

[11:05:11] so that the person would have known us?

[11:05:13] How's that even possible?

[11:05:15] Your Master Ancestor personally taught us this technique.

[11:05:18] It can only detect the Spirit Infant's location in one direction.

[11:05:20] What's more,

[11:05:21] these two places are hundreds of li apart,

[11:05:23] which goes way beyond the spiritual sense range of ordinary Nascent Soul cultivators.

[11:05:27] Don't tell me we're chasing

[11:05:28] some Nascent Soul monster at Final Stage?

[11:05:37] Oh no!

[11:05:38] The Spirit Infant

[11:05:39] is heading straight for us.

[11:05:40] What?

[11:05:47] It's really on its way here,

[11:05:48] and at quite a speed.

[11:05:49] I'm pretty sure it's a Nascent Soul cultivator.

[11:05:51] If we fight this person,

[11:05:52] we're dead.

[11:05:53] Use the Spirit Convergence Art now.

[11:05:55] There's a Ghost Spirit Sect branch nearby.

[11:05:57] Let's head there first.

[11:05:58] The person might not attack so quickly.

[11:06:00] Let's use the formation as cover.

[11:06:01] We've got a pretty good shot at getting away.

[11:06:03] Senior,

[11:06:04] send word to our Ancestor right away.

[11:06:05] The situation here

[11:06:06] is way beyond what we can handle.

[11:06:12] Master, your spiritual sense is so formidable.

[11:06:14] At full power,

[11:06:16] it can detect movements up to 200 li away,

[11:06:17] with an accuracy of about 80-90%.

[11:06:20] But this time,

[11:06:21] trouble came knocking.

[11:06:23] It's not a huge problem, though,

[11:06:25] as there are only two Core Formation cultivators.

[11:06:28] They sneaked around,

[11:06:29] and managed to track me down.

[11:06:32] I can't let them tail us.

[11:06:34] Eliminate them early to save ourselves from future troubles.

[11:06:39] Why are there others here?

[11:06:44] At this speed,

[11:06:45] we won't make it into the Ghost Spirit Sect branch in time.

[11:06:50] Those Ghost Spirit Sect cultivators in front

[11:06:52] seem to be heading right for us.

[11:06:53] Ghost Spirit Sect?

[11:06:54] Have they found us yet?

[11:06:58] Shield Spirit Sect?

[11:07:00] What brings them here?

[11:07:05] Aren't you Junior Han

[11:07:06] and Junior Liu from the Shield Spirit Sect?

[11:07:11] What a nice surprise.

[11:07:14] What should we do, Junior?

[11:07:15] Should we tell them the truth?

[11:07:17] We've got to keep the Spirit Infant's existence under wraps.

[11:07:19] I'll think of a way to stall them.

[11:07:22] So it's the Ghost Spirit Sect's famous Ghost Elder and Bald Elder.

[11:07:25] What a coincidence!

[11:07:26] Coincidence?

[11:07:27] You people from the Shield Spirit Sect

[11:07:28] came to Xu Country without even telling us?

[11:07:31] Gentlemen, please keep calm.

[11:07:33] This is an urgent issue that can't wait.

[11:07:35] We didn't have time to inform your sect.

[11:07:37] There was no intention of disrespect.

[11:07:40] Whatever your reason for coming,

[11:07:42] I just want to ask one thing.

[11:07:45] Have you been

[11:07:47] to Mountains Taiyue recently?

[11:07:54] Mountains Taiyue?

[11:07:55] We hadn't been there.

[11:07:56] About 100 li behind us,

[11:07:58] there's a cultivator who came from Mountains Taiyue.

[11:08:01] The timing also matches what you two said.

[11:08:03] How do you even know so much?

[11:08:06] Is this person

[11:08:07] also from your sect?

[11:08:09] Gentlemen,

[11:08:10] I swear I'm not lying to you.

[11:08:12] I'd make an oath with my Cultivation Core,

[11:08:13] I've never come across this person before.

[11:08:15] If you're not convinced,

[11:08:17] you're welcome to go and ask the person yourselves.

[11:08:20] So, how did I find out about this?

[11:08:25] Oh no, Junior!

[11:08:26] That person behind us seems to be

[11:08:28] catching up!

[11:08:29] What?!

[11:08:31] We're in a bit of a rush today,

[11:08:34] we'll come apologize properly another time.

[11:08:36] What do you think?

[11:08:39] Wait,

[11:08:41] today

[11:08:42] we've been sent by Soul-Shattering Sage

[11:08:45] to look into the murder of his descendants.

[11:08:48] Your movements are a bit fishy.

[11:08:51] If you want to expose whoever's behind you,

[11:08:54] why not come with us

[11:08:55] and confront the person face to face?

[11:08:57] What do you say?

[11:08:59] Confrontation?

[11:09:06] What?

[11:09:07] Are you two trying to deny it?

[11:09:16] Senior.

[11:09:17] What should we do?

[11:09:18] Let's break through by force.

[11:09:49] Nascent...

[11:09:51] Nascent Soul cultivator.

[11:09:53] The person you mentioned

[11:09:54] is a Nascent Soul monster!

[11:09:56] They're trying to trick us into a fate worse than death!

[11:09:59] Enough talk,

[11:10:00] run now.

[11:10:01] It's good if any of us could survive.

[11:10:03] I'll let our Patriarch know.

[11:10:04] Ghost,

[11:10:05] you should retreat too.

[11:10:07] Shield Spirit Sect,

[11:10:08] just you wait.

[11:10:10] These useless fools

[11:10:12] wasted our precious escape time.

[11:10:13] They're serving as our decoy,

[11:10:15] giving us some precious time to escape.

[11:10:16] - Move! - Go!

[11:10:29] There they are again,

[11:10:31] those Ghost Spirit Sect cultivators.

[11:10:35] There were 17 of them,

[11:10:37] all running off in different directions.

[11:10:41] You think I can't be everywhere at once?

[11:11:02] With my Wind-Fire Evasion Art,

[11:11:04] I'm not any weaker than

[11:11:05] Nascent Soul cultivators at the Initial Stage.

[11:11:08] Is that so?

[11:11:10] Fellow, you've traveled a long way,

[11:11:11] that must've been pretty tiring.

[11:11:13] Let me send you on your way.

[11:11:20] Senior...

[11:11:21] Senior, spare me!

[11:11:22] I'm a disciple of Soul-Shattering Sage,

[11:11:24] and guardian of the Ghost Spirit Sect's Young Master!

[11:11:26] No need to introduce yourself,

[11:11:27] I remember you.

[11:11:33] That's impossible.

[11:11:53] What?

[11:11:53] Bald Elder has been killed!

[11:11:55] How could this happen?

[11:11:56] Isn't the person afraid of making the Ghost Spirit Sect angry?

[11:11:59] Is the Righteous Dao Coalition

[11:12:00] or the Heavenly Dao Alliance declaring war?

[11:12:02] No,

[11:12:03] I must report this to our master.

[11:12:04] No time!

[11:12:06] Even burning my essence and blood, I must survive!

[11:12:08] I can't die here!

[11:12:10] You flee faster than your companion.

[11:12:13] Senior,

[11:12:13] can't we have a nice talk?

[11:12:17] Nice talk?

[11:12:19] I didn't know your sect had such a tradition.

[11:12:25] If I don't eliminate you now,

[11:12:27] the demons of the Demonic Sects will come after me next.

[11:12:33] The evolved Gold-Consuming Bug

[11:12:35] can now consume even Magic Treasures.

[11:12:37] But with more power,

[11:12:38] comes harder control.

[11:12:41] I do need a stronger Insect Taming Technique.

[11:12:57] Four disciples

[11:12:59] were attacked at the same time.

[11:13:03] We underestimated the abilities of the Nascent Soul monster.

[11:13:06] If we'd known earlier,

[11:13:07] we might as well have teamed up with those Ghost Spirit Sect cultivators

[11:13:09] and fought this guy together.

[11:13:33] It's her.

[11:13:35] This is really...

[11:14:16] Wait,

[11:14:18] how's that even possible?

[11:14:19] The person didn't lay a finger on me,

[11:14:22] didn't harm me at all,

[11:14:28] and didn't even touch my storage pouch.

[11:14:33] What's going on here?

[11:14:36] Does this person know me?

[11:14:38] That can't be right.

[11:14:39] Apart from the Patriarch of the Shield Spirit Sect,

[11:14:41] all the other Nascent Soul cultivators

[11:14:42] are people I've never met.

[11:14:49] It looks like Junior Liu

[11:14:51] has either been killed

[11:14:53] or escaped beyond detection range.

[11:14:56] Given this person's abilities,

[11:14:58] I'm afraid she might be killed.

[11:15:10] Why didn't

[11:15:13] this Nascent Soul senior kill me?

[11:15:32] Congrats, Master,

[11:15:34] you've got

[11:15:35] quite the haul there.

[11:15:36] Don't talk nonsense.

[11:15:37] If it weren't for that interesting thing she's got,

[11:15:39] I'd never have let her live.

[11:15:46] No,

[11:15:46] I'm not able to escape like this.

[11:15:49] Find a way now!

[11:16:09] Quickly!

[11:16:11] There must be a way to survive.

[11:16:20] Se...

[11:16:21] Senior!

[11:16:22] Didn't expect

[11:16:23] to find this.

[11:16:31] I was right.

[11:16:33] This is

[11:16:38] 18th on the Exotic Insects List,

[11:16:42] the Six-Winged Frost Centipede.

[11:17:01] What? How is that possible?

[11:17:31] Master, you've already got Weeping Soul Beast

[11:17:34] and the Gold-Consuming Bugs.

[11:17:36] Is this centipede

[11:17:38] really that powerful?

[11:17:41] This is no ordinary spiritual creature.

[11:17:43] This species of centipede,

[11:17:45] like the Gold-Consuming Bugs,

[11:17:46] is an ancient spiritual creature from the primordial era.

[11:17:50] Legend has it that they carry traces of ice-attributed true dragon bloodline.

[11:17:54] Once they evolve into their mature form,

[11:17:56] their bodies turn snow-white,

[11:17:58] and they sprout six wings from their backs.

[11:17:59] The frost they exhale

[11:18:01] can blanket hundreds of li.

[11:18:13] Now that the spiritual creature has recognized its master,

[11:18:15] forcibly taking it isn't an option.

[11:18:17] Besides,

[11:18:19] I'm also pretty interested to know about

[11:18:21] the Shield Spirit Sect's methods of controlling insects.

[11:18:23] I see.

[11:18:27] Master, you're really into cultivation, right?

[11:18:30] But

[11:18:31] why did you let the other person go

[11:18:34] too?

[11:18:37] Han Yunzhi?

[11:18:39] To me,

[11:18:40] this woman always reminds me of Xiaomei.

[11:18:42] Never mind.

[11:18:43] She didn't get a clear look at my face anyway.

[11:18:45] Let it be.

[11:18:46] I can't be heartless,

[11:18:47] because that's just not my nature.

[11:18:49] When we get to the Xi Country,

[11:18:50] even if I'm exposed,

[11:18:51] what can the Ghost Spirit Sect and the Shield Spirit Sect do?

[11:18:55] You're spot on.

[11:18:56] The Heavenly Dao Coalition and the Demonic Sects

[11:18:59] are natural enemies.

[11:19:00] As long as we don't get trapped in their territory,

[11:19:03] they can only vent their anger with words,

[11:19:07] no matter how furious they become.

[11:19:10] But,

[11:19:11] Master, today

[11:19:13] you seem a bit...

[11:19:16] What's wrong?

[11:19:19] 'Invincible'.

[11:19:36] They're just a few Core Formation cultivators.

[11:19:38] Easy pickings, that's all.

[11:19:40] As for being invincible,

[11:19:44] well, we'll see if I can

[11:19:45] fight a Nascent Soul cultivator at the same stage.

[11:19:52] Episode 166

[11:19:57] Watch with Headphones for Better Viewing Experience

[11:20:10] It's great

[11:20:11] to have you back.

[11:20:12] Junior Han, did you come across anything special?

[11:20:18] I traveled around quite a bit

[11:20:20] and got rid of a few of the evil Core Formation cultivators from Demonic Sects.

[11:20:25] Demonic Sects?

[11:20:29] Is there any problem with that?

[11:20:34] Don't worry,

[11:20:35] I've got everything covered.

[11:20:40] Demonic Sects.

[11:20:43] Core Formation cultivators.

[11:20:47] They're most likely direct disciples.

[11:20:50] Well, good,

[11:20:53] excellent.

[11:20:55] Both Righteous Dao and Demonic Sects are birds of the same feather,

[11:20:58] I still remember how they schemed against us

[11:21:00] during the last Sword Testing Tournament of three sects.

[11:21:03] Senior was even injured because of it,

[11:21:05] and he's not fully recovered yet.

[11:21:08] You have truly avenged us.

[11:21:13] I'm flattered, Senior.

[11:21:15] Come on, Junior Han.

[11:21:17] Let's go and get a cuppa.

[11:21:18] We can have a chat over a cup of tea.

[11:21:20] - After you. - Come on.

[11:21:20] Oh right, Senior,

[11:21:22] have you heard?

[11:21:23] Recently, Elder Dongmen of the Shield Spirit Sect

[11:21:24] and Soul-Shattering Sage of the Ghost Spirit Sect,

[11:21:26] recently had a fierce battle

[11:21:27] in the Xu Country.

[11:21:30] These two old demons

[11:21:31] hardly ever leave their mountain sect,

[11:21:33] why would they do this?

[11:21:34] Who knows?

[11:21:35] Hardly any of

[11:21:36] those Demonic Sects are pretty deranged.

[11:21:54] You're awake.

[11:21:58] Who...

[11:21:59] Who are you?

[11:22:05] Fellow, your scent

[11:22:07] is pretty nice,

[11:22:10] perhaps from raising many Spiritual Beasts?

[11:22:16] Fine,

[11:22:17] now that you're awake,

[11:22:19] let's go and meet my master.

[11:22:22] Who's your master?

[11:22:24] Where is this place?

[11:22:28] You've got so many questions...

[11:22:30] Xi Country, Mount Cloudy Dream.

[11:22:33] Mount Cloudy Dream?

[11:22:38] Heavenly Dao Coalition?

[11:22:42] Alright, stop overthinking it.

[11:22:44] After I take you there,

[11:22:48] I've got plenty of work waiting.

[11:23:02] Let's go.

[11:24:04] This guy's so stubborn.

[11:24:07] It's just a fifth-rank demonic beast,

[11:24:10] but it's surprisingly strong.

[11:24:13] The Iron Rhino Beast.

[11:24:15] It's the Fu family's guardian Spiritual Beast.

[11:24:17] You're indeed an outstanding disciple of the Shield Spirit Sect.

[11:24:20] You've really got to know your stuff

[11:24:22] when it comes to beast mastery.

[11:24:52] Master,

[11:24:53] you used too much force.

[11:24:55] It's completely paralyzed,

[11:24:57] with all four limbs shaking uncontrollably.

[11:25:01] It's knocked out.

[11:25:09] Why are you following me?

[11:25:12] The cultivators from Ghost Spirit Sect and Demonic Flame Sect

[11:25:14] had their reasons for coming after me,

[11:25:16] but your Shield Spirit Sect...

[11:25:18] I don't think I caused any offense.

[11:25:20] Senior, you've imprisoned our Sacred Beast.

[11:25:24] I've got no choice but to follow orders

[11:25:26] and track down its location.

[11:25:29] We didn't mean any offense.

[11:25:32] Sacred beast?

[11:25:36] What you mentioned

[11:25:37] is this thing?

[11:25:41] This Spirit Infant

[11:25:42] was painstakingly refined by the Shield Spirit Sect over a few generations.

[11:25:52] Rest assured, Senior,

[11:25:53] there are no Curse or Tracking Spells on it.

[11:25:55] A senior and I

[11:25:56] cultivated a special secret technique

[11:25:58] that lets us sense the Spirit Infant's location from a distance.

[11:26:01] But if it's in the Heavenly Dao Coalition,

[11:26:02] so far from Demonic Sects,

[11:26:04] it's impossible to sense it.

[11:26:10] Refine?

[11:26:11] This demon infant was refined by the Shield Spirit Sect.

[11:26:18] I guess

[11:26:20] it must serve a significant purpose.

[11:26:24] It's about keeping our sect's secrets,

[11:26:28] if even a hint gets leaked...

[11:26:41] Tell me

[11:26:44] everything now.

[11:27:01] This Supreme Wood Spirit Infant

[11:27:02] can merge with wood spiritual root cultivators who've practiced special techniques.

[11:27:06] It can even condense a substitute Nascent Soul,

[11:27:08] giving you Nascent Soul cultivation and abilities.

[11:27:14] Reaching the Nascent Soul stage right away?

[11:27:17] If it really was that amazing,

[11:27:19] your Shield Spirit Sect

[11:27:23] would have taken over all the Demonic Sects by now.

[11:27:28] Senior, you're so good at spotting things,

[11:27:30] the stuff needed to refine

[11:27:31] this spirit infant is really strict.

[11:27:33] It needs

[11:27:34] the dispersed Nascent Souls from our dying Elders,

[11:27:36] along with a fusion ritual

[11:27:38] that's got to be led by Nascent Souls of all five attributes at the same time.

[11:27:40] Not many cultivators are eligible for this.

[11:27:43] Also, it's worth mentioning that

[11:27:44] cultivators who progress through this method

[11:27:46] only gain a lifespan equivalent to the Core Formation stage.

[11:27:52] As expected,

[11:27:53] this method is similar to refining a Demonic Core.

[11:27:56] Both of these are shortcut techniques that come with some pretty serious risks.

[11:27:59] But an artificial Nascent Soul

[11:28:01] is truly beyond comprehension.

[11:28:16] Senior, as you already know,

[11:28:18] my life

[11:28:21] must seem pretty worthless to you now.

[11:28:25] Those Spiritual Creatures you controlled

[11:28:28] were Six-Winged Frost Centipedes from the Exotic Insects List, right?

[11:28:32] How did you get hold of

[11:28:34] those ancient Spiritual Creatures in your cultivation stage?

[11:28:37] Release them, let me take a look again.

[11:28:42] Senior,

[11:28:44] you also know our sect's Exotic Insects List?

[11:28:52] I found these creature eggs in an abandoned cave of an ancient cultivator.

[11:28:56] I thought they were dead,

[11:28:59] but, surprisingly,

[11:29:00] a few of them hatched by chance.

[11:29:03] Our sect seniors say that

[11:29:05] these creatures have endless powers when they're fully grown,

[11:29:07] but they're really tricky to breed.

[11:29:09] It'd take at least a thousand years

[11:29:10] for them to grow up.

[11:29:13] That's why no one's ever really gone after them.

[11:29:24] I've got my own tricks up my sleeve

[11:29:25] to boost their rank by one or two tiers in no time at all.

[11:29:28] So,

[11:29:30] I'm still pretty interested in these Spiritual Creatures.

[11:29:35] I've also heard that

[11:29:37] the Shield Spirit Sect's Insect Taming Technique

[11:29:40] has

[11:29:42] some unique aspects, too.

[11:29:46] The Insect Taming Technique

[11:29:47] is a closely guarded secret of the Shield Spirit Sect.

[11:29:50] If it's leaked,

[11:29:52] even I can go back to my sect,

[11:29:53] and I'd be facing soul-extracting torture.

[11:29:57] Also, I'm already connected to these Spiritual Creatures by blood.

[11:30:00] Enough.

[11:30:02] You're saying these Spiritual Creatures have been fed by your essence and blood since birth.

[11:30:05] Even if you offered them to me now, I can't control them.

[11:30:08] Right?

[11:30:09] I wouldn't take your Spiritual Creatures.

[11:30:11] But the eggs they produce

[11:30:13] have to be handed over to me.

[11:30:15] I'll let you go as soon as I've got the eggs

[11:30:18] and the secret technique.

[11:30:26] Even if I go back to my sect,

[11:30:27] it'd also be a dead end.

[11:30:29] If I become a rogue cultivator,

[11:30:31] I'd probably never form a Nascent Soul.

[11:30:35] Besides,

[11:30:36] I already know who you are and where you live, Senior.

[11:30:40] Surely, you wouldn't just let me leave so easily, right?

[11:30:50] What do you want then?

[11:30:53] Don't tell me

[11:30:57] you want me to make a blood oath

[11:31:00] or threaten me with killing Spiritual Creatures?

[11:31:10] No,

[11:31:11] I wouldn't dream of doing that.

[11:31:12] I'm just

[11:31:13] trying to protect myself, that's all, Senior.

[11:31:16] I know I don't have much family background

[11:31:18] or mentorship within the sect.

[11:31:20] My cultivation is all down to good luck.

[11:31:23] Senior, if you think I'm up to scratch,

[11:31:25] I'd like to formally become your disciple,

[11:31:27] I'm begging you to accept me.

[11:31:36] I'd only feel comfortable

[11:31:37] revealing everything to you without holding back under your protection.

[11:31:40] Otherwise,

[11:31:41] even if you spared me,

[11:31:43] the Shield Spirit Sect would never let me live.

[11:31:49] She's got a good eye for spotting situations.

[11:32:03] Quite meticulous,

[11:32:08] and reasonably courageous.

[11:32:10] There're two things.

[11:32:14] First, you've got to agree to my soul-binding restriction.

[11:32:18] Second, you'll only be a nominal disciple.

[11:32:22] My cultivation techniques

[11:32:23] might not be right for you.

[11:32:26] It's what I'm supposed to do.

[11:32:28] You've spared me,

[11:32:29] I wouldn't dare complain.

[11:32:31] Master, I'm here to pay my respects.

[11:32:41] Since then,

[11:32:42] I won't go back on my word.

[11:32:44] You should change your name

[11:32:45] and join the Drifting Cloud Sect.

[11:32:47] Master, thanks for the honor.

[11:32:49] Restore your energy in the chamber.

[11:32:51] I'll take you to meet

[11:32:53] the other two Elders of the Drifting Cloud Sect tomorrow.

[11:32:55] Yes, Master.

[11:33:22] Master, you've always been reluctant to take on disciples.

[11:33:26] If you just wanted this secret technique,

[11:33:28] you could've easily found it through soul searching.

[11:33:34] Unless

[11:33:36] you've got other ideas

[11:33:40] for the Six-Winged Frost Centipedes?

[11:33:42] Exactly.

[11:33:44] At our current rate,

[11:33:47] it'll take at least two hundred years

[11:33:50] to refine all the Celestial Ice Flames.

[11:33:52] But the cold energy of this Six-Winged Frost Centipede

[11:33:54] can drastically shorten the refining time.

[11:33:57] And

[11:33:59] it's got amazing enhancing effects too.

[11:34:20] Silvermoon,

[11:34:22] do you remember the Sacred Asura Flames

[11:34:24] that Demon Xuan Gu used?

[11:34:26] Of course.

[11:34:29] Master, if you were an ordinary cultivator,

[11:34:31] that level of demonic flame

[11:34:34] would have destroyed your form and spirit

[11:34:36] when you took the Ding.

[11:34:37] Luckily, it was an emergency,

[11:34:40] so he didn't have much time.

[11:34:42] Otherwise,

[11:34:44] if he had really succeeded in cultivating it,

[11:34:46] he would've been almost unbeatable in this world,

[11:34:48] or at least a rare match for anyone.

[11:34:53] Could it be

[11:34:54] that you also want to fuse with this flame, Master?

[11:34:59] I'm not sure where this flame came from,

[11:35:02] but it's more powerful than the Celestial Ice Flames.

[11:35:05] If I'm right,

[11:35:07] as the Six-winged Frost Centipede's cold energy grows,

[11:35:10] the power after absorbing this flame

[11:35:12] will only grow stronger.

[11:35:13] So, following Xuan Gu's method,

[11:35:15] use the Dark Soul Ghost Fire as the exterior,

[11:35:18] then infuse it with refined Celestial Ice Flames,

[11:35:23] add the unique ice flame of the Six-winged Frost Centipedes,

[11:35:27] and drive it with the Divine Devilbane Lightning.

[11:35:37] And in the end,

[11:35:39] it might not be that much weaker than the Sacred Asura Flames.

[11:35:51] Master, the day you take over Tiannan

[11:35:53] is coming soon.

[11:36:03] Episode 167

[11:36:07] Watch with Headphones for Better Viewing Experience

[11:36:13] Spirit Well Tree,

[11:36:15] Spirit Well Jade,

[11:36:17] and the Spirit Well Water

[11:36:20] I brought back last time.

[11:36:23] I think my cultivation efficiency

[11:36:25] will improve a lot.

[11:36:28] I've now reached Nascent Soul,

[11:36:30] so I've got to stay even more vigilant.

[11:36:32] After all,

[11:36:35] those cultivators who've reached Nascent Soul at the Middle and Final stage

[11:36:38] are all survival experts and have lived for centuries.

[11:36:41] Everyone has their own ace in the hole.

[11:36:44] The many secret techniques I've obtained

[11:36:45] must be mastered quickly.

[11:36:53] Take these.

[11:36:54] Thanks, Master.

[11:36:56] One more thing,

[11:36:58] now that I'm settled in Drifting Cloud Sect.

[11:37:00] I need to start building my own network

[11:37:03] to avoid being left in the dark.

[11:37:06] This woman has a knack for reading people

[11:37:07] and is a natural when it comes to social interactions.

[11:37:10] She'll get to know the people in the sect in no time.

[11:37:14] Great.

[11:37:16] We've got another Core Formation

[11:37:18] female cultivator in our sect.

[11:37:21] Martial Niece Song from White Phoenix Peak

[11:37:23] has been without a deputy.

[11:37:25] Martial Niece Liu,

[11:37:27] it's worth a try.

[11:37:35] Martial Uncles, I trust your opinion.

[11:37:37] Great.

[11:37:49] One Year Later

[11:39:05] No wonder the demonic sect

[11:39:07] is known for the Insect Taming Technique in Tiannan.

[11:39:10] This treasure armor controlled by Insect Armor Art

[11:39:12] is way more durable than previous battle armors.

[11:39:18] It's indeed more powerful.

[11:39:19] It looks pretty normal, to be honest.

[11:39:23] Let me design one for you, Master.

[11:39:35] We'll sort out the appearance

[11:39:36] at a later date too.

[11:39:45] But what's even more amazing

[11:39:46] is this Profound Yin Nascent Soul Cultivation Art.

[11:39:48] It indeed can create

[11:39:49] a second Nascent Soul, an incredible divine ability.

[11:39:51] But the conditions are really tough.

[11:39:53] First,

[11:39:54] you have to take over another Nascent Soul,

[11:39:57] erase its consciousness, and make it part of yourself.

[11:40:00] But this process can actually end up devouring your own consciousness.

[11:40:13] Second,

[11:40:14] a Nascent Soul physical body is required

[11:40:17] for the second Nascent Soul to possess.

[11:40:19] As for Nascent Soul cultivators,

[11:40:20] it's not even easy to capture one alive,

[11:40:22] let alone deliver a fatal blow.

[11:40:26] Luckily,

[11:40:28] there's the Five Elements Spirit Infant Art mentioned by Liu Mei,

[11:40:31] which doesn't need a Nascent Soul cultivator.

[11:40:33] All it takes is for the Spirit Infant to merge with a Core Formation cultivator.

[11:40:38] So,

[11:40:39] if I refine this into a second Nascent Soul,

[11:40:41] there's a pretty high chance of success.

[11:40:43] But there are too many unknowns.

[11:40:45] I need to plan this carefully

[11:40:46] and make sure I have everything I need.

[11:41:20] Junior Han,

[11:41:23] the Trading Event is coming,

[11:41:25] time to set off for the Nine Kingdoms Alliance.

[11:41:28] Ah, the energy of youth.

[11:41:30] What a pity,

[11:41:32] my lifespan is running short.

[11:41:38] Senior,

[11:41:39] you're pulling my leg again.

[11:41:41] Given your age,

[11:41:43] you should have at least another century or two to live.

[11:41:48] But since that last injury,

[11:41:50] the vitality loss has been too severe.

[11:41:52] Even if I never get into combat again,

[11:41:55] I'd be lucky to last fifty or sixty years at most.

[11:42:00] No need for consolation.

[11:42:01] I guess that's just how things are,

[11:42:04] or

[11:42:05] why would I be so keen

[11:42:07] to get Junior Han on board with our Drifting Cloud Sect?

[11:42:10] But now it seems

[11:42:13] I wasn't mistaken about him.

[11:42:16] I can relax.

[11:42:20] The disciples you sent out

[11:42:22] actually got to the bottom of Junior Han's background, then?

[11:42:25] You should believe this,

[11:42:27] over a hundred years ago,

[11:42:29] our Junior Han

[11:42:31] was treated as expendable by that old fox Linghu

[11:42:35] from Yellow Maple Valley.

[11:42:38] Really?

[11:42:39] If that old fox knew about Junior Han now,

[11:42:42] he'd probably

[11:42:43] be pretty frustrated.

[11:42:47] After all, Yellow Maple Valley

[11:42:48] hasn't exactly been doing well in the Nine Kingdoms Alliance.

[11:42:51] He's the only Nascent Soul,

[11:42:54] relying solely on him is a bit of a stretch.

[11:42:58] You won't be

[11:43:00] fighting alone anymore,

[11:43:02] so I can finally relax.

[11:43:11] Several Months Later

[11:43:15] After months on the run,

[11:43:17] we've finally reached the area around Vast Sky City.

[11:43:20] We've been flying with you two for ages,

[11:43:23] Fairy Mu, so you must be knackered.

[11:43:35] After you.

[11:43:39] Senior Lu, the route you picked

[11:43:41] took us away from countries where there are a lot of Righteous Dao and Demonic sects.

[11:43:44] That's why everything's gone so smoothly.

[11:43:49] For the last few hundred years,

[11:43:50] Senior Cheng has handled the internal sect affairs,

[11:43:52] while I've taken care of external matters

[11:43:53] and been a busy bee.

[11:43:55] I got used to it.

[11:43:56] But speaking of which,

[11:43:58] this once-in-a-century Trading Event

[11:44:00] is being held in Vast Sky City this time,

[11:44:02] as it has happened recently.

[11:44:05] Before that,

[11:44:06] it was controlled separately by the Righteous Dao and Demonic Sects.

[11:44:10] Ever since the war between them started,

[11:44:13] none of the major powers

[11:44:15] felt secure anymore.

[11:44:17] So in a way,

[11:44:18] the Nine Kingdoms Alliance got lucky.

[11:44:21] But

[11:44:22] I'm genuinely intrigued by the legends of Vast Sky City.

[11:44:26] I heard the Mulan Spell Warriors Alliance

[11:44:28] once got deep into Yu Country's territory,

[11:44:29] but the newly allied Nine Kingdoms cultivators repelled them

[11:44:32] by the Shangyuan Radiance Annihilation Formation in this very city.

[11:44:35] In that battle alone,

[11:44:37] several Nascent Soul cultivators died.

[11:44:38] The carnage was truly devastating.

[11:44:42] Well, this is the only cultivator city in all of Tiannan, after all.

[11:44:47] But,

[11:44:47] Junior Han,

[11:44:48] this city won't let you down.

[11:44:55] I didn't expect

[11:44:57] you to bring Fairy Mu along this time.

[11:45:01] She's hit a bit of a snag with her cultivation.

[11:45:05] It's a great opportunity for her to see things from a different perspective.

[11:45:13] After all,

[11:45:14] she doesn't manage to reach Core Formation,

[11:45:16] this could be her last shot

[11:45:19] at joining this life.

[11:45:23] Tell me,

[11:45:24] what kind of cultivation technique does Junior Han specialize in?

[11:45:29] Puppet Art,

[11:45:31] Alchemy,

[11:45:33] or maybe

[11:45:34] Sword Talisman Control.

[11:45:36] The path of cultivation is a bit of a wild card, isn't it?

[11:45:39] He's got to be good at something, right?

[11:45:45] Well, he's just reached his Nascent Soul,

[11:45:47] so it's good that he's able to protect himself.

[11:45:49] We've finally got ourselves a junior,

[11:45:53] so we need to make sure he stays out of harm's way.

[11:45:55] What a shame,

[11:45:57] if only our Junior Han

[11:46:00] had also cultivated water-attribute techniques,

[11:46:03] I would definitely

[11:46:04] teach him

[11:46:07] the escape techniques

[11:46:09] of my Thousand Waves Art.

[11:46:10] Even if he loses the magical duel,

[11:46:12] he won't lose his life.

[11:46:15] But,

[11:46:16] Senior,

[11:46:17] rest assured,

[11:46:19] I'm after all a Nascent Soul cultivator,

[11:46:22] this is my first time taking my junior out.

[11:46:25] I'll make sure he's not bullied.

[11:46:32] Junior Han,

[11:46:34] during the Closed Door Training,

[11:46:36] have you made any...

[11:46:42] Master,

[11:46:43] what's wrong?

[11:46:48] There's a group of cultivators flying towards us,

[11:46:51] including a Nascent Soul cultivator.

[11:46:55] Nascent Soul cultivator,

[11:46:57] really?

[11:47:03] You got it!

[11:47:05] I never thought your spiritual sense would be so strong,

[11:47:07] and sense it before me.

[11:47:11] You're so meticulous.

[11:47:14] Even now,

[11:47:15] you maintain your spiritual sense at full extension.

[11:47:19] I wouldn't say it's full extension.

[11:47:20] It's merely automatic detection.

[11:47:22] But that Nascent Soul cultivator over there

[11:47:24] looks like she's got a pretty good spiritual sense as well.

[11:48:12] It doesn't really seem like something a cultivator would do,

[11:48:14] more like an emperor's procession.

[11:48:16] That kind of extravagance is pretty unreasonable.

[11:48:18] The way Nascent Soul old monsters behave

[11:48:20] is really affected by their cultivation techniques.

[11:48:25] Marquis Nan Long?

[11:48:27] What's he doing here?

[11:48:29] Could he also be attending the Trading Event?

[11:48:32] Junior Han,

[11:48:33] be careful with what you say.

[11:48:35] This old monster is a real handful, with some pretty impressive abilities

[11:48:36] and a bit of a temper to go with them.

[11:48:37] I did get the chance to meet him once years ago,

[11:48:40] leave everything to me.

[11:48:55] May I ask

[11:48:56] is Marquis Nan Long there?

[11:49:02] I am Lu Luo of the Drifting Cloud Sect.

[11:49:05] Greetings, fellow.

[11:49:19] Who

[11:49:19] are you?

[11:49:26] Three hundred years ago,

[11:49:28] I followed my master, Muli Sage.

[11:49:30] Oh,

[11:49:33] so you're that pedantic Muli's disciple,

[11:49:38] I never thought you'd reach Nascent Soul too.

[11:49:44] I heard your master passed away

[11:49:47] not long after we parted ways three hundred years ago.

[11:49:51] What a pity indeed.

[11:49:55] Hey, who are those two people standing behind you?

[11:49:59] Their faces are quite unfamiliar.

[11:50:04] Marquis,

[11:50:05] this is

[11:50:06] our new junior Han Li from the Drifting Cloud Sect.

[11:50:09] The young lady next to him

[11:50:10] is his concubine,

[11:50:12] Miss Mu.

[11:50:13] Junior Han.

[11:50:15] Marquis is an old acquaintance of my master,

[11:50:17] you should get to know him as well.

[11:50:21] Greetings, Marquis Nan Long.

[11:50:24] Han Li,

[11:50:27] a newly advanced Nascent Soul cultivator.

[11:50:30] Interesting.

[11:50:32] I'm curious to know how skilled you are.

[11:50:35] Let me test you.

[11:50:45] A Nascent Soul duel?

[11:50:52] Episode 168

[11:50:56] Watch with Headphones for Better Viewing Experience

[11:51:03] Han Li,

[11:51:05] a newly advanced Nascent Soul cultivator.

[11:51:09] Interesting.

[11:51:11] I'm curious to know how skilled you are.

[11:51:16] Let me test you.

[11:51:26] I'd suggest not.

[11:51:28] Junior Han only formed his Nascent Soul a few years ago,

[11:51:30] how could he possibly be a match for you?

[11:51:33] Don't worry,

[11:51:36] I wouldn't bully someone younger.

[11:51:39] It's just a friendly spiritual sense duel.

[11:51:44] You must be joking, Marquis.

[11:51:46] Spiritual sense duels are dangerous.

[11:51:48] How come we do it so casually?

[11:51:53] Why are you so anxious?

[11:52:00] Fellow Han

[11:52:02] would be up for giving it a go.

[11:52:10] we're already within Vast Sky City's thousand-mile radius.

[11:52:13] There seems to be

[11:52:15] a special rule during the Trading Event.

[11:52:20] are you saying

[11:52:23] Forced Transaction?

[11:52:27] Exactly.

[11:52:32] That young lady,

[11:52:35] I'm captivated by her.

[11:52:49] I'm getting a bit tired of

[11:52:50] my two concubines.

[11:52:53] Their looks and cultivation levels are quite similar.

[11:52:57] I'd use these two

[11:52:58] to trade with you.

[11:53:00] What do you think?

[11:53:09] You don't seem too keen.

[11:53:14] Then let's have a spiritual sense duel.

[11:53:18] If you win,

[11:53:21] my two beloved concubines

[11:53:24] will be yours.

[11:53:31] Senior Lu,

[11:53:32] Forced Transaction? What kind of rule is that?

[11:53:34] Junior Han,

[11:53:36] Forced Transaction

[11:53:37] is a special rule during the Vast Sky City

[11:53:38] Trading Event,

[11:53:40] it's a way for Nascent Soul cultivators to settle disputes

[11:53:42] without putting their lives at risk.

[11:53:45] This is a real pain at the moment.

[11:53:47] Even if the Nine Kingdoms Alliance enforcers were here,

[11:53:49] they wouldn't be able to get involved.

[11:53:58] Fellow Han, if you're worried about getting hurt,

[11:54:01] that's fair enough.

[11:54:03] We can just trade directly.

[11:54:05] It's two for one,

[11:54:09] so you're not losing out.

[11:54:19] Very well,

[11:54:23] let's have a duel.

[11:54:27] If I win by chance,

[11:54:29] I won't take your beloved concubines,

[11:54:32] I just want to know

[11:54:34] why you're insisting on a Spiritual Sense duel,

[11:54:37] Fellow Nan Long.

[11:54:43] Don't say

[11:54:47] it's because you don't like me.

[11:54:50] Or

[11:54:53] it's her beauty that's got you hooked.

[11:55:16] you have my word.

[11:55:21] Young Master.

[11:55:26] be careful.

[11:55:28] If you can't handle it,

[11:55:29] then step aside.

[11:55:30] I'll put a stop to it.

[11:55:32] Don't get hurt.

[11:55:46] You little boy.

[11:55:52] you're clearly invested in this matter,

[11:55:54] and I find it

[11:55:56] quite intriguing.

[11:56:02] It's easy to have a good chat with clever people.

[11:56:05] If I hadn't found your strong spiritual sense,

[11:56:07] when you used it on me earlier,

[11:56:10] I wouldn't have bothered challenging you personally.

[11:56:16] I've only recently formed my Nascent Soul,

[11:56:18] and I'm eager to test

[11:56:20] how my spiritual sense compares to other Nascent Souls.

[11:56:23] Other Nascent Souls,

[11:56:25] I...

[11:56:30] Great timing.

[11:57:12] Spiritual Sense Manifestation.

[11:57:14] How is that even possible?

[11:57:17] Spiritual Sense Manifestation.

[11:57:19] Junior Han's spiritual sense

[11:57:21] is pretty strong.

[11:57:24] Then... Can my Young Master defeat him?

[11:57:28] It's hard to tell.

[11:57:29] it makes sense that

[11:57:30] you can't master

[11:57:32] Spiritual Sense Manifestation with a powerful Spiritual Sense

[11:57:33] until you reach the Mid-Stage of the Nascent Soul.

[11:57:36] But Junior Han is...

[11:57:39] Now I finally get it!

[11:57:40] Junior Han's main cultivation technique

[11:57:42] is all about spiritual sense!

[11:57:58] What?

[11:57:59] Their spiritual senses are still getting stronger!

[11:58:02] In that case,

[11:58:04] Young Master might actually stand a chance!

[11:58:07] It's hard to tell.

[11:58:09] Marquis Nan Long had already reached Mid-Stage of Nascent Soul three hundred years ago.

[11:58:13] I'd say

[11:58:14] he's probably just one step away from the Final Stage now.

[11:58:17] It's really hard to defeat

[11:58:20] such an ancient monster.

[11:58:43] It's a pretty

[11:58:45] even match.

[11:59:01] Not bad.

[11:59:13] Is he finally getting serious?

[12:00:06] Swords?

[12:00:07] Great.

[12:00:56] Such formidable power

[12:00:58] is truly astonishing.

[12:01:40] Look!

[12:01:41] Nascent Soul cultivators are having a duel.

[12:01:43] This is so scary.

[12:02:33] I've used 70-80% of my spiritual sense,

[12:02:36] yet he can still effortlessly block

[12:02:38] and handle it with ease.

[12:02:40] Could his spiritual sense

[12:02:42] really be better than mine?

[12:02:44] Let's call this duel off.

[12:02:46] If we carry on like this,

[12:02:48] I'm worried

[12:02:50] I might not be able to handle it.

[12:02:53] Fellow Han, you're undervaluing yourself.

[12:02:56] Let cultivation techniques alone,

[12:02:58] when it comes to spiritual sense,

[12:02:59] I'm sure you're not inferior to me.

[12:03:03] Maybe it's best we call off this duel,

[12:03:06] we might end up causing real harm.

[12:03:08] Among cultivators,

[12:03:09] no matter what realm you reach,

[12:03:12] strength speaks louder than words.

[12:03:15] I've known about

[12:03:16] your capabilities.

[12:03:20] you're all set to join my team.

[12:03:26] But

[12:03:27] this is a really important thing to think about.

[12:03:29] We can't talk about that here.

[12:03:33] On the fourth day of the Trading Event,

[12:03:35] we're meeting at the location on this jade slip.

[12:03:40] I'll introduce you to some people then,

[12:03:43] and

[12:03:45] there'll be a great opportunity.

[12:03:55] Opportunity?

[12:03:57] Introduce some people?

[12:04:02] You're a pretty interesting person,

[12:04:04] you know how to keep your claws in check.

[12:04:08] If some people are not careful,

[12:04:11] you could end up doing them a lot of harm.

[12:04:31] Acting unpredictably,

[12:04:33] and showing off how powerful you are,

[12:04:35] it's just another way of hiding what you're up to.

[12:04:38] Same

[12:04:39] here.

[12:04:46] Young Master,

[12:04:47] are

[12:04:52] you alright?

[12:04:53] I'm fine.

[12:04:55] Just used some spiritual sense.

[12:05:01] My dear junior,

[12:05:03] you've kept me in the dark for ages

[12:05:05] and made me worry for no reason.

[12:05:08] I've always been open with you, Junior.

[12:05:10] It's just that neither of you ever asked.

[12:05:14] Come here.

[12:05:16] But I didn't think that

[12:05:18] you're able to match Marquis Nan Long in spiritual sense

[12:05:21] without being at a disadvantage.

[12:05:23] This guy's been in the spotlight for ages.

[12:05:26] Out of all the rogue cultivators in Tiannan,

[12:05:28] he's considered top-tier.

[12:05:32] Not many people

[12:05:33] know where he came from.

[12:05:35] If we have to deal with people like him again...

[12:05:38] I'm afraid what happened

[12:05:39] might pique the interest of a lot of cultivators.

[12:05:41] Why don't we

[12:05:43] set off now?

[12:05:45] you're spot on.

[12:05:54] It was just a false alarm earlier,

[12:05:56] but

[12:05:57] Senior and I finally have our answer to the thing

[12:06:00] we've always been curious about you.

[12:06:03] What is it?

[12:06:04] Your main cultivation technique.

[12:06:11] It's all about spiritual sense.

[12:06:14] What else could it be?

[12:06:17] But Junior, don't overthink it,

[12:06:19] we're just worrying unnecessarily.

[12:06:22] It's not about offensive techniques,

[12:06:25] supernatural abilities like amazing Evasion Arts,

[12:06:29] or supplementary skills like beast-taming formations.

[12:06:33] But

[12:06:34] it's enough for self-protection.

[12:06:39] For our Drifting Cloud Sect,

[12:06:41] it's good enough

[12:06:43] to be able to protect yourself.

[12:07:05] Episode 169

[12:07:10] Watch with Headphones for Better Viewing Experience

[12:07:42] Is this

[12:07:44] Vast Sky City?

[12:07:48] What do you think, Junior Han?

[12:07:51] It's almost impossible to see

[12:07:52] a city of such enormous size, right?

[12:07:55] This is the one and only

[12:07:57] cultivator city in all of Tiannan.

[12:08:03] This city is huge,

[12:08:05] but compared to the Heavenly Star City I've seen,

[12:08:07] it's more like a military fortress.

[12:08:21] Whenever we get within a hundred miles of Heavenly Star City,

[12:08:23] we have to come on foot.

[12:08:25] This rule

[12:08:26] is a real pain.

[12:08:27] For us, Nascent Souls,

[12:08:28] these kinds of restrictions

[12:08:30] are just formalities.

[12:08:33] Senior Lu, you follow these rules

[12:08:35] mostly because of this city's true master.

[12:08:38] Junior Han, you're not just good at spiritual sense,

[12:08:40] you know a lot.

[12:08:42] Exactly.

[12:08:43] Wei Wuyan, leader of the Nine Kingdoms Alliance,

[12:08:45] who is a Nascent Soul at the Final Stage,

[12:08:46] ascends to greatness and dominates Tiannan.

[12:08:49] He's a remarkable guy.

[12:08:52] Wei Wuyan?

[12:09:17] It's been a warfront for a long time,

[12:09:20] and it's got to stay on its toes against Mulan spies.

[12:09:24] Mulan is different from Tiannan,

[12:09:26] their major tribes are really united,

[12:09:29] but Tiannan...

[12:09:32] Forget it.

[12:09:33] Let's go

[12:09:34] somewhere else now.

[12:09:42] Wanted

[12:09:49] Fellows, don't miss this opportunity,

[12:09:51] exclusive spiritual fruits from Pattra Sect.

[12:09:55] Take a look.

[12:09:58] Is there anything you need?

[12:09:59] These spiritual fruits are pretty different from the ones in our Flower Rain Country.

[12:10:02] Check out the special forging materials from Tianji Sect!

[12:10:05] Come on! Blood Slaughter Sect's talismans here!

[12:10:07] Fellow, come take a look!

[12:10:09] - Exclusive. - Check out these Spiritual Fruits

[12:10:10] - There, shopkeeper. - That...for Spiritual Beasts.

[12:10:11] Have another look!

[12:10:13] This one, right?

[12:10:32] Han,

[12:10:33] here we are,

[12:10:36] Heavenly Dao Coalition's guesthouse in Vast Sky City,

[12:10:39] where various sect elders rest.

[12:10:42] This place

[12:10:43] is protected by Nascent Soul-level restrictions,

[12:10:46] so it's restricted to protect privacy.

[12:11:05] I see.

[12:11:27] Junior Han, you...

[12:11:28] Isn't this Lu?

[12:11:30] What brings you here so early?

[12:11:32] Lan,

[12:11:32] you got here before us.

[12:11:36] Come here,

[12:11:37] let me formally introduce him.

[12:11:39] This

[12:11:40] is our Drifting Cloud Sect's newly promoted Supreme Elder,

[12:11:42] Han Li.

[12:11:43] I guess you've heard of him.

[12:11:46] No need for introductions then.

[12:11:50] Greetings, Fellow Lan.

[12:11:54] I did feel the commotion

[12:11:57] when you made your breakthrough.

[12:11:59] To have such profound cultivation,

[12:12:01] I guess it makes sense that

[12:12:03] I misjudged you

[12:12:04] within the Sacred Tree.

[12:12:08] I've heard a lot about the Sacred Tree,

[12:12:10] so I went to the sacred ground to check it out.

[12:12:13] I don't have anything against the three sects.

[12:12:14] Fellow Lan, no offense intended.

[12:12:16] If that's the case,

[12:12:18] that day inside the Sacred Tree,

[12:12:20] some unanswered questions

[12:12:23] suddenly made sense.

[12:12:25] Fellow Lan,

[12:12:27] what do you mean by that?

[12:12:31] Never mind,

[12:12:33] as long as the Sacred Tree is standing,

[12:12:35] that's all that matters.

[12:12:37] What's past

[12:12:38] should stay in the past.

[12:12:39] You're spot on.

[12:12:39] I believe you.

[12:12:42] Oh right,

[12:12:43] I'm heading to the Crystal Dragon Pavilion

[12:12:45] to attend the Nascent Soul Trading Event.

[12:12:47] Why don't you two come along with me?

[12:12:51] Junior Han,

[12:12:52] we're here on time.

[12:12:53] You know what?

[12:12:54] Trading events at this level

[12:12:56] are quite rare.

[12:12:57] Besides,

[12:12:58] if we don't go there,

[12:13:00] we'll miss the chance to see those treasures, right?

[12:13:04] Exactly.

[12:13:05] Then we'll go with your idea, Lan.

[12:13:09] Young Master,

[12:13:10] then

[12:13:10] I'll hang tight here for you.

[12:13:15] This jade pendant is imbued with spiritual power,

[12:13:16] and can generate a spirit shield.

[12:13:18] With this, you can come and go as you please.

[12:13:20] I'll be able to sense it

[12:13:21] from within a thousand miles.

[12:13:23] Thank you, Young Master.

[12:13:27] - Please. - Han.

[12:13:28] - Please. - After you.

[12:13:41] Lan,

[12:13:42] how much further is it to the Crystal Dragon Pavilion?

[12:13:45] We'll be there soon.

[12:13:48] This is it.

[12:13:50] Crystal Dragon Pavilion

[12:13:52] Private Gathering, No Walk-ins Accepted

[12:13:59] He's been around for centuries,

[12:14:02] but still enjoys playing these illusion tricks.

[12:14:04] Jeez...

[12:14:07] Let's go in.

[12:14:23] Come on in.

[12:14:25] Your noodles.

[12:14:26] Enjoy.

[12:14:29] Come on, fill it up.

[12:14:31] You old man, Heavenly Crystal.

[12:14:58] I'm Lu Luo from the Drifting Cloud Sect.

[12:15:01] Greetings, Heavenly Crystal Sage.

[12:15:11] This is Han Li, our sect's new Supreme Elder.

[12:15:15] Junior Han,

[12:15:16] this is Heavenly Crystal Sage.

[12:15:20] I'm Han Li from the Drifting Cloud Sect.

[12:15:23] Greetings, Heavenly Crystal Sage.

[12:15:34] You seem pretty young, fellow,

[12:15:36] but you've quite an impressive spiritual sense.

[12:15:58] Hey, old man, enough already.

[12:16:00] Have the others shown up yet?

[12:16:03] It's about to begin.

[12:16:11] These two Black Spirit Masks

[12:16:13] are for you two.

[12:16:18] Lan, do you need one too?

[12:16:22] Lay off the mocking.

[12:16:24] My physique

[12:16:25] is pretty recognizable.

[12:16:26] Trying to disguise myself with illusions

[12:16:29] won't fool anyone.

[12:16:34] Let's go.

[12:16:46] This mask is so incredible.

[12:16:48] I'm sure

[12:16:50] that's how I look to others now.

[12:17:01] The second floor is incredibly spacious.

[12:17:04] This guy's illusion skills are impressive.

[12:17:07] Nascent Soul monsters

[12:17:08] are all really formidable.

[12:17:12] Lan?

[12:17:13] He's the only one not wearing a mask.

[12:17:17] Ancient Sword Sect,

[12:17:19] the Mount Cloudy Dream?

[12:17:25] Righteous Dao and Demonic Sects,

[12:17:28] we've got quite a crowd here.

[12:17:29] It's good to be here.

[12:17:46] There are so many Nascent Soul cultivators,

[12:17:48] it's far beyond anything I've ever seen in my lifetime.

[12:17:51] When you get to that level of cultivation,

[12:17:53] that's when you'll meet cultivators of that caliber.

[12:17:55] Don't let the quiet fool you

[12:17:57] I bet they're all using Voice Transmission Technique.

[12:17:59] Junior Han,

[12:18:01] some of these folks have a bit of a self-importance issue.

[12:18:03] They released cultivation techniques on purpose,

[12:18:06] including the infamous Feicha Evil Cultivators from the Shared Joy Sect,

[12:18:08] they're pretty hostile

[12:18:10] towards our Heavenly Dao Coalition.

[12:18:15] There're two Nascent Soul cultivators at Middle Stage.

[12:18:20] What a packed house indeed.

[12:18:32] Honored fellows,

[12:18:36] welcome to my place.

[12:18:38] If there are no objections,

[12:18:41] let's begin the Trading Event.

[12:18:46] I'll go first.

[12:18:52] This is the legendary

[12:18:54] Crimson Zoysia of the Ice-Fire Zoysia.

[12:18:57] Such an intense fire spiritual aura,

[12:19:00] and it's gotta be at least 3,000 years old.

[12:19:01] 100,000 Spiritual Stones,

[12:19:03] or

[12:19:05] the equivalent in earth-attribute alchemy, or tools for refining materials.

[12:19:09] 100,000 Spiritual Stones?

[12:19:10] That's lower than I thought.

[12:19:12] This crimson Zoysia is

[12:19:14] almost as rare as the Ninecurl Spirit Elixir.

[12:19:16] Take it or leave it?

[12:19:19] 100,000?

[12:19:20] It seems like he's pretty broke, right?

[12:19:22] Lan's the kind of guy

[12:19:23] who's always haggling.

[12:19:25] That's Crimson Zoysia,

[12:19:26] so haggling won't work.

[12:19:28] What about materials with different attributes?

[12:19:31] I only accept earth-attribute materials.

[12:19:37] See? I told you so.

[12:19:38] He must've lost everything gambling at chess.

[12:19:41] But why isn't anyone bidding on this first item?

[12:19:44] Maybe everyone's finances are tight this year.

[12:19:47] Crimson Zoysia

[12:19:48] is kinda a precious spiritual medicine.

[12:19:51] Fellow,

[12:19:53] earth-attribute demonic core,

[12:19:54] might this interest you?

[12:19:56] Do you have any high-level demonic cores, fellow?

[12:20:00] High-level demonic beasts are pretty much unheard of in Tiannan these days.

[12:20:04] It has to be one 7th level,

[12:20:06] 6th level would require two cores.

[12:20:09] You had a lot of

[12:20:10] high-level demonic cores, Master.

[12:20:12] Tiannan Continent isn't the Outer Sea of Chaotic Stars,

[12:20:15] these people probably

[12:20:16] have never even seen a Nascent Soul demon cultivator.

[12:20:29] Deal.

[12:20:42] Deal?

[12:20:43] 100,000 Spiritual Stones?

[12:20:46] He looks easy and relaxed,

[12:20:47] and he's definitely not short on cash.

[12:20:49] Master,

[12:20:50] they all seem to be sizing you up.

[12:20:52] It's okay.

[12:20:53] With my skills,

[12:20:54] even up against a Nascent Soul cultivator at Middle Stage,

[12:20:56] I can probably get away clean.

[12:20:58] Congrats to you all.

[12:21:00] Now then,

[12:21:01] feel free to trade.

[12:21:10] This item

[12:21:11] is only exchangeable for Poison Rune Wood.

[12:21:14] Trade succeeded.

[12:21:38] Similar items are also fine.

[12:21:46] No one recognizes its value.

[12:21:50] Here.

[12:22:00] It seems,

[12:22:01] in the Nascent Soul stage,

[12:22:03] trading with peers is key to acquiring resources.

[12:22:08] a 6th-level water-attribute demonic core, a fire-attribute with the same level,

[12:22:10] and 2 stalks of Thousand-Year Spiritual Grass,

[12:22:12] are exchanged for

[12:22:14] Geng Essence.

[12:22:16] 6th demonic cores?

[12:22:17] 2 stalks of Thousand-Year Spiritual Grass?

[12:22:19] They're quite valuable,

[12:22:22] but Geng Essence?

[12:22:23] He's in the wrong place.

[12:22:29] Or

[12:22:30] maybe some news about Geng Essence.

[12:22:32] Fellow,

[12:22:33] I'm sure you know

[12:22:36] how precious the Geng Essence is, right?

[12:22:38] Even with all these materials,

[12:22:40] it probably still wouldn't be enough.

[12:22:44] But just for news,

[12:22:46] that would be too generous.

[12:22:49] Just news,

[12:22:51] not the same as

[12:22:52] actually getting it.

[12:22:55] Everyone knows that

[12:22:57] the greatest treasure in Tiannan is hidden away in the legendary Demonfall Valley,

[12:23:01] a place with a history going back thousands of years.

[12:23:05] Demonfall Valley.

[12:23:07] Why's he bringing that up?

[12:23:08] I'd almost forgotten about that place.

[12:23:10] After all, no one's dared to go there in ages.

[12:23:13] Demonfall Valley?

[12:23:21] Episode 170

[12:23:26] Watch with Headphones for Better Viewing Experience

[12:23:33] Demonfall Valley?

[12:23:36] Yeah,

[12:23:37] Demonfall Valley.

[12:23:39] It's really been ages since I last heard that name.

[12:23:42] Legend said

[12:23:43] the place was once an ancient battlefield.

[12:23:46] The lost arcane techniques and divine powers were strong.

[12:23:50] They even broke through the fabric of space,

[12:23:53] throwing the space into chaos,

[12:23:55] creating strange formations everywhere.

[12:23:56] Every step a deadly trap.

[12:23:59] For years,

[12:24:00] tons of high-level cultivators who think they're the best

[12:24:03] have fallen for lost ancient treasures and techniques,

[12:24:06] but they've ended up meeting their end inside.

[12:24:10] More and more exotic treasures have been left in there.

[12:24:13] In recent years,

[12:24:14] nobody's been brave enough to take a chance.

[12:24:17] This just goes to show how the place

[12:24:19] has become known as the most treacherous spot in Tiannan.

[12:24:22] It's a really dangerous place,

[12:24:24] and nobody survives.

[12:24:26] Those who want to go inside

[12:24:28] aren't just trying to take a chance.

[12:24:30] Unfortunately,

[12:24:32] today's cultivators aren't even

[12:24:34] given a safe passage.

[12:24:39] Brought only the less valuable items,

[12:24:40] to avoid showing off my wealth.

[12:24:43] So many Nascent Soul cultivators here,

[12:24:45] yet, surprisingly, no news of Geng Essence.

[12:24:49] Fellows,

[12:24:50] since most of you have already traded for what you needed,

[12:24:54] as we're nearing the end,

[12:24:55] I've got a few things to offer, too.

[12:25:09] Puppets?

[12:25:10] Quite high-level.

[12:25:12] These are

[12:25:13] Core Formation puppets at Initial Stage.

[12:25:16] Could this Heavenly Crystal Sage

[12:25:17] be from the Thousand Bamboo School?

[12:25:19] Tianjing,

[12:25:21] have you given up your Crystal Light Technique?

[12:25:23] Why switch to Puppet Art instead?

[12:25:26] These puppets

[12:25:27] were found recently

[12:25:30] at an ancient ruin with some fellows.

[12:25:33] Times are tough,

[12:25:35] so I'm selling them for some resources.

[12:25:38] The thing I'm looking to trade is pretty rare.

[12:25:41] In ancient times,

[12:25:42] it was called

[12:25:44] the Soul Stone.

[12:25:47] Have you heard of the Soul Stone?

[12:25:50] The Soul Stone he mentioned,

[12:25:52] what on earth is that?

[12:25:55] I've never heard of it.

[12:25:59] No worries, I've got one on hand.

[12:26:04] Master, isn't this just the Dark Underworld Beast Crystal you've got a bunch of?

[12:26:08] Beast Crystal?

[12:26:09] Soul stone?

[12:26:11] As I thought,

[12:26:13] these ancient puppets' magical power

[12:26:15] needs a ton of Soul Stones.

[12:26:17] I'm exactly short on high-level puppets and ways to refine them.

[12:26:24] Didn't this guy just buy that Crimson Zoysia?

[12:26:27] I didn't expect that he had Soul Stones.

[12:26:33] Fellow,

[12:26:34] come here now,

[12:26:36] let me take a closer look.

[12:26:41] Your Soul Stone is pretty big,

[12:26:43] it's rare to see.

[12:26:46] Fellow,

[12:26:47] feel free to

[12:26:48] pick any two of these puppets.

[12:26:51] Two?

[12:26:52] That seems a bit out of place.

[12:26:55] I'll use this Soul Stone

[12:26:56] to trade all of your puppets.

[12:27:00] All of them?

[12:27:03] Fellow,

[12:27:04] don't you think this is too greedy?

[12:27:06] Whether it's greedy or not,

[12:27:08] you should know perfectly well, Sage.

[12:27:09] These puppets are indeed rare.

[12:27:12] But this Soul Stone

[12:27:14] is just valuable.

[12:27:16] Without this,

[12:27:17] there'd be no point in even having the puppets,

[12:27:20] right,

[12:27:21] Sage?

[12:27:27] Alright.

[12:27:29] A Soul Stone that size

[12:27:32] is really rare.

[12:27:36] I bet right.

[12:27:38] He also knows about the connection between Soul Stones and puppets

[12:27:40] and how to refine them.

[12:27:49] Does he take them all?

[12:27:50] Are Soul Stones really worth so much?

[12:27:54] Junior Han, you play it close to the chest.

[12:28:04] If you want more Soul Stones,

[12:28:07] I'll return

[12:28:08] between 3 and 5 a.m.

[12:28:17] Junior, you've gained

[12:28:18] quite a bounty at this trading event.

[12:28:22] Let me tell you,

[12:28:23] I haven't seen so many Nascent Soul cultivators in a long time.

[12:28:26] Once this trade event wraps up,

[12:28:27] who knows when another session will be.

[12:28:38] Lan...

[12:28:39] Fellows,

[12:28:40] I've got some other stuff to take care of,

[12:28:42] so I won't be back anytime soon.

[12:28:44] If you've got pressing business,

[12:28:47] just feel free to go ahead and take care of it.

[12:28:50] I'll be off, then.

[12:28:56] He...

[12:28:58] He's not happy.

[12:29:00] Fellow Lan is quite interesting.

[12:29:05] Fellow Lan

[12:29:07] accidentally ate a mystical herb when he was a kid,

[12:29:09] and

[12:29:10] he's been stuck looking like a kid ever since.

[12:29:15] But he is honest and straightforward.

[12:29:18] He's thought of as one of the few possible allies of the other sect.

[12:29:22] Senior Lu, as you mentioned it,

[12:29:24] I'll give some chess manuals to him next time.

[12:29:30] You're very thoughtful, Junior.

[12:29:33] After all, in the Ancient Sword Sect,

[12:29:35] it's rare to find

[12:29:37] an elder who's friendly toward our Drifting Cloud Sect.

[12:29:41] You've got a pretty strong Spiritual Sense and exceptional insight,

[12:29:44] but

[12:29:45] it's always good to make good connections,

[12:29:47] especially with the sharpest sword cultivators at the same level.

[12:29:51] Have you seen the terrifying might of sword cultivators in battle?

[12:29:54] Just so you know,

[12:29:56] with just a sword art,

[12:29:57] they can turn swords into silk-like threads

[12:29:58] - He doesn't know - and take over the battlefield.

[12:30:00] you have over seventy swords, Master.

[12:30:02] No worries,

[12:30:03] Senior Lu is also quite interesting.

[12:30:06] Don't worry, Junior Han,

[12:30:07] I will

[12:30:08] show you around someday.

[12:30:22] Crystal Dragon Pavilion

[12:30:57] Sage,

[12:30:59] it's time,

[12:31:01] show yourself.

[12:31:15] He's able to hold a Nascent Soul Trade Event in Vast Sky City,

[12:31:18] so his background must be uncommon.

[12:31:21] Fellow, welcome back to my pavilion.

[12:31:38] You're Nascent Soul at Initial stage,

[12:31:40] but you're coming alone.

[12:31:42] Don't you worry that I might take your Soul Stones by force?

[12:31:54] How interesting.

[12:32:13] Do you not fear

[12:32:15] that I might seize your puppet refinement art by force?

[12:32:19] If you insist on acting like you don't know anything

[12:32:22] and refusing to trade with me,

[12:32:29] then I'll have to say goodbye.

[12:32:36] Wait,

[12:32:38] a few days later,

[12:32:39] after the trade event officially begins, there will be a piece of Geng Essence,

[12:32:42] and its owner is in a small mountain outside the west gate.

[12:32:46] If you're interested, fellow,

[12:32:47] you can go and have a try.

[12:32:49] As for the puppet matter,

[12:32:50] we can also talk about it.

[12:32:51] But you also need to tell me

[12:32:54] how you got these Soul Stones.

[12:33:00] Okay,

[12:33:03] Dark Underworld Place,

[12:33:06] Dark Underworld Beast?

[12:33:09] This...

[12:33:12] You don't have to trust me,

[12:33:14] but these Soul Stones are real,

[12:33:16] I wish to trade them for your Puppet Art.

[12:33:19] You're getting a fair deal,

[12:33:21] or you only have the method

[12:33:23] without Soul Stones,

[12:33:24] what's the use of it?

[12:33:27] How do you want to trade?

[12:33:29] If it hits with full force,

[12:33:31] it could have Nascent Soul level power,

[12:33:33] I could give you twenty

[12:33:35] or thirty pieces,

[12:33:36] Are all the Soul Stones like this?

[12:33:38] Can you really refine Nascent Soul level puppets?

[12:33:43] I'm not just

[12:33:44] talking a big game.

[12:33:59] In that case,

[12:34:01] this art

[12:34:03] is yours, fellow.

[12:34:07] You old fox...

[12:34:20] What?

[12:34:22] The attack power of top-level puppets

[12:34:24] is comparable to Nascent Soul cultivators at Middle Stage.

[12:34:28] Is this

[12:34:29] something you're looking for?

[12:34:30] The main materials needed are just too unusual.

[12:34:33] Ten-thousand-year Ironwood,

[12:34:35] and there are several other materials

[12:34:36] I've never even heard of them,

[12:34:38] how could I find these?

[12:34:40] This refining method

[12:34:42] is useless to me.

[12:34:45] I'm sorry, but I can't help you with that.

[12:34:48] On the path of immortal cultivation,

[12:34:52] everyone's journey is unique.

[12:34:55] Sage, you're on the lookout for Soul Stones.

[12:34:58] So you've already gathered all the other materials, haven't you?

[12:35:02] When did I say I was going to refine it myself?

[12:35:07] I just

[12:35:08] found two semi-finished

[12:35:11] high-level puppets in the ancient ruins.

[12:35:14] Once you fuse the Soul Stones into them,

[12:35:17] they'll be complete.

[12:35:19] Alright,

[12:35:20] I've given this Puppet Art to you,

[12:35:22] so

[12:35:24] the remaining Soul Stones...

[12:35:36] This time, it was my own carelessness that got me.

[12:35:39] I'm not one to hold a grudge, though.

[12:35:42] We're even now.

[12:35:43] Let's call it a day.

[12:35:48] You're trying to outsmart me?

[12:35:51] You're still wet behind the ears.

[12:35:57] He's trying to outsmart you, Master,

[12:35:58] but he's going overboard.

[12:36:00] But you just put on

[12:36:01] such a convincing show

[12:36:02] that I almost fell for it.

[12:36:05] Some people might say that

[12:36:06] ten-thousand-year ironwood is impossible,

[12:36:07] but I've got the little green vial.

[12:36:09] It'll just take more time.

[12:36:11] As for other materials,

[12:36:15] they should all be in the puppet inside Void Heaven Hall.

[12:36:18] I just need to collect some extra materials little by little.

[12:36:21] The puppet's attack is comparable to Nascent Soul,

[12:36:24] and if it's successfully refined,

[12:36:26] it'll be super powerful.

[12:36:28] The more Trump cards, the better.

[12:36:32] Exactly.

[12:36:33] Let's go.

[12:36:34] Let's meet the owner of the Geng Essence.

[12:36:36] Enhancing the power of Natal Magic Treasure

[12:36:38] is the most important.

[12:36:58] Don't miss this.

[12:36:59] We've got rare medicinal herbs and spiritual plants.

[12:37:01] Show me now.

[12:37:02] Take a look, fellow.

[12:37:04] Your shop has a pretty wide selection.

[12:37:06] Yeah,

[12:37:06] we've got

[12:37:07] all kinds of stuff here, besides Magic Tools.

[12:37:09] We're also into refinement of all kinds of Magic Tools

[12:37:14] - How about it? - Let me think about it.

[12:37:17] Wait, don't go.

[12:37:18] We can negotiate the price.

[12:37:19] We'll see around.

[12:37:19] Did you hear?

[12:37:21] Something at yesterday's trade event

[12:37:23] sold for over 700,000 Spiritual Stones.

[12:37:25] Of course, I heard.

[12:37:26] Something called Geng...

[12:37:27] Don't stress about it too much, Master.

[12:37:29] Not really.

[12:37:30] The price is really high,

[12:37:33] especially for something the size of a walnut.

[12:37:35] Even if I got it,

[12:37:37] it'd barely be enough for seven or eight flying swords.

[12:37:38] Exactly.

[12:37:39] That Geng Essence seller,

[12:37:41] besides Spiritual Stones,

[12:37:42] insisted on some legendary Divine Mud of Transformation.

[12:37:46] That's a bit much.

[12:37:46] Luckily, the Trade Event

[12:37:48] had some extra materials for puppet refining,

[12:37:50] so it wasn't a total waste.

[12:37:51] Let's go.

[12:37:52] We'll check out the talisman shop.

[12:37:53] I need a high-grade talisman brush

[12:37:55] to study that Spirit Subjugation Talisman.

[12:37:57] Here you go.

[12:37:57] Cultivation Manuals, Magic Tools, Puppets, Talismans,

[12:38:02] even at the Nascent Soul stage,

[12:38:04] you've got a lot on your plate.

[12:38:08] You broke something

[12:38:09] and think you can just walk away without paying?

[12:38:10] I never said I wouldn't pay.

[12:38:12] I just spent all my money

[12:38:13] at other shops.

[12:38:14] - You break it, you pay! - It's just a Flame Cloud Talisman,

[12:38:17] is it really worth 300 Spiritual Stones?

[12:38:19] Why? It's worth 300 Spiritual Stones!

[12:38:21] Watch your tone.

[12:38:25] That voice sounds so familiar.

[12:38:26] It's him.

[12:38:28] He's also here.

[12:38:31] Let's go check it out.

[12:38:41] (Episode 171 Return to Tiannan Season 4)

[12:38:45] (Watch with Headphones for Better Viewing Experience)

[12:38:50] I said, 300 Spiritual Stones!

[12:38:51] Are you trying to weasel out of it?

[12:38:53] Fine,

[12:38:55] this is my sect's identification token.

[12:38:57] I'll leave it here temporarily.

[12:38:58] I'm going back to the inn

[12:38:59] to borrow some Spiritual Stones

[12:39:00] from my fellow disciples, alright?

[12:39:03] What good is this worthless

[12:39:05] piece of junk to me?

[12:39:07] If you run away,

[12:39:08] do I need to find you in Xi Country?

[12:39:09] Hey, everyone,

[12:39:10] come take a look!

[12:39:12] This so-called prestigious Drifting Cloud Sect

[12:39:13] is trying to welsh on its debts!

[12:39:17] He's going to hit him now!

[12:39:18] Look!

[12:39:19] How can he resort to violence?

[12:39:20] Exactly!

[12:39:21] Paying with Spiritual Stones for goods is natural.

[12:39:23] Is everyone in the Drifting Cloud Sect like this?

[12:39:24] This Flame Cloud Talisman

[12:39:25] is worth no more than 100 Spiritual Stones.

[12:39:26] Did you damage it or not?

[12:39:27] I take responsibility for what I did,

[12:39:29] but...

[12:39:30] If you refuse to compensate,

[12:39:32] don't blame me for being unreasonable,

[12:39:33] I'll have to report this to the city's law enforcers.

[12:39:37] Law enforcers?

[12:39:38] - This must be reported. - Yeah.

[12:39:40] Aren't they favoring you guys?

[12:39:42] Here are some talismans,

[12:39:44] enough to temporarily cover 300 Spiritual Stones.

[12:39:46] Talismans?

[12:39:46] That's better.

[12:39:48] Not this one.

[12:39:50] What are you doing? Trying to steal now?

[12:39:52] A tattered old talisman like this,

[12:39:55] why so nervous?

[12:39:57] Is Drifting Cloud Sect in such dire straits?

[12:40:16] Who's there?

[12:40:16] What do you want?

[12:40:17] Nothing much.

[12:40:19] I just heard you

[12:40:20] talking about our Drifting Cloud Sect.

[12:40:24] Care to say that again to my face?

[12:40:36] Nascent Soul cultivator!

[12:40:39] I'm disciple Sun Huo,

[12:40:40] humbly pay my respects to you,

[12:40:42] Han...

[12:40:44] Master Ancestor.

[12:40:46] I lack discernment

[12:40:47] and failed to recognize your true identity.

[12:40:48] I'm sorry to have offended you.

[12:40:49] I beg your forgiveness.

[12:40:57] Senior, please calm down.

[12:40:58] What happened here?

[12:41:00] Is there anything I can help you with, Senior?

[12:41:01] Nothing much.

[12:41:02] I just heard that this shopkeeper from your city

[12:41:05] has been making disparaging remarks about our Drifting Cloud Sect.

[12:41:07] So I merely wanted

[12:41:09] this cultivator

[12:41:10] to repeat those words

[12:41:12] to me.

[12:41:16] I understand.

[12:41:18] This shopkeeper must have been spouting nonsense.

[12:41:20] He wouldn't dare disrespect you, Senior.

[12:41:22] All of you,

[12:41:23] apologize now!

[12:41:24] Senior,

[12:41:25] I'm guilty of misspeaking.

[12:41:27] But I absolutely meant no disrespect to your honorable sect.

[12:41:29] Regarding the Flame Cloud Talisman that was damaged by this cultivator,

[12:41:31] I am

[12:41:31] willing to waive compensation.

[12:41:32] Consider it our apology to you, Senior.

[12:41:34] Yes, exactly.

[12:41:35] My apologies.

[12:41:36] What?

[12:41:37] Do you think I'm here to bully you

[12:41:40] or take advantage of you?

[12:41:43] Do you really think

[12:41:45] your talisman is a rare masterpiece?

[12:41:48] Let me see it.

[12:41:50] If it is,

[12:41:51] I'll repay you in Spiritual Stones.

[12:41:53] If not...

[12:42:02] Spare me, Senior!

[12:42:03] It's just an ordinary talisman,

[12:42:06] I'll accept any punishment,

[12:42:07] any punishment.

[12:42:10] Rest assured, Senior.

[12:42:11] This person broke the rules so flagrantly.

[12:42:13] I will severely punish them

[12:42:14] to give you and your esteemed sect proper satisfaction.

[12:42:16] I'll leave it to you.

[12:42:17] I don't have time for such trivial matters.

[12:42:20] Understood.

[12:42:20] Don't worry, Senior.

[12:42:22] Take them all away.

[12:42:22] Follow me.

[12:42:24] You'd better tell me everything later.

[12:42:25] - Move. - Yes.

[12:42:35] That old talisman,

[12:42:36] show it to me.

[12:42:44] Isn't your ancestor

[12:42:46] also originally from Xu Country?

[12:42:50] How did you know, Ancestor Master?

[12:42:52] He ran an inn

[12:42:54] in Jiayuan City,

[12:42:56] and his name was

[12:43:00] Sun Ergou.

[12:43:03] Ancestor Master, you even know this?

[12:43:07] Are the powers of the Nascent Soul stage

[12:43:09] really that incredible?

[12:43:11] A Nascent Soul cultivator

[12:43:13] is not a fortune teller.

[12:43:15] I left this talisman.

[12:43:26] You're the immortal recorded in our family genealogy?

[12:43:28] I am the seventh-generation descendant of Sun Ergou...

[12:43:31] Sit down.

[12:43:32] No...

[12:43:33] Why have you become so hesitant now?

[12:43:35] When you reached Foundation Establishment, didn't you treat me,

[12:43:38] your Qi Condensation junior, as an equal?

[12:43:41] I tell you to sit, you shall sit.

[12:43:54] Literally,

[12:43:56] since I reached Nascent Soul,

[12:43:57] I haven't seen you much.

[12:43:59] Why?

[12:44:00] Weren't you always talking about finding a master?

[12:44:08] Well,

[12:44:09] after learning your true identity,

[12:44:11] I

[12:44:12] did think about visiting you again.

[12:44:14] As you know, Senior,

[12:44:16] I'm really not good at this kind of thing.

[12:44:19] True.

[12:44:21] That much hasn't changed.

[12:44:24] Very well, then.

[12:44:25] You have decent potential,

[12:44:26] but you lack proper guidance.

[12:44:29] How about this?

[12:44:31] When you return to the sect,

[12:44:32] go to White Phoenix Peak

[12:44:33] and find Liu Mei, my newly accepted disciple who has reached the Core Formation stage.

[12:44:36] If you encounter difficulties in your daily cultivation,

[12:44:38] you may seek her guidance.

[12:44:41] Thank you, Martial Ancestor.

[12:44:43] I told Elder Lu by Voice Transmission

[12:44:45] that you'd take shelter in his pavilion for now.

[12:44:48] This place is a den of wolves,

[12:44:50] where friends and foes are indistinguishable.

[12:44:53] There are rules in the city.

[12:44:54] If someone schemes against you in secret,

[12:44:56] you may not always find help.

[12:44:59] Yes.

[12:45:04] Wait a minute.

[12:45:07] Your sword,

[12:45:09] I've been meaning to tell you

[12:45:10] that you got ripped off when you bought it.

[12:45:12] It's not worth that many Spiritual Stones.

[12:45:16] This one,

[12:45:17] you can have it.

[12:45:19] How could I...

[12:45:26] Thank you, Master Ancestor.

[12:45:32] Master, you treat Sun Huo

[12:45:34] with exceptional kindness.

[12:45:39] It's nothing.

[12:45:40] He's straightforward and unrestrained.

[12:45:42] He's not one for schemes or intrigues,

[12:45:44] and more like a wandering knight.

[12:45:46] He always reminds me

[12:45:48] of an old friend.

[12:45:56] On the fourth day of the trade event,

[12:45:57] please come to the location marked on this jade pendant.

[12:46:09] Marquis, sorry for keeping you waiting.

[12:46:18] Fellow Han,

[12:46:20] you're a man of your word indeed.

[12:46:25] You arrived on time.

[12:46:28] Please.

[12:46:33] I'll introduce them to you later.

[12:46:40] Esteemed guests,

[12:46:41] Fellow Han has arrived.

[12:46:44] It's you.

[12:46:56] Core Formation at Final Stage,

[12:46:58] quite impressive.

[12:47:00] As for this other person,

[12:47:01] she must be the ailing young lady from the Yan family Castle.

[12:47:09] I never expected

[12:47:11] to encounter old acquaintances here.

[12:47:15] This truly

[12:47:17] surprises me.

[12:47:22] How is this possible?

[12:47:23] You...

[12:47:24] You've formed a Nascent Soul!

[12:47:26] What's up?

[12:47:30] Do you know this fellow?

[12:47:32] Second Uncle,

[12:47:33] this is that Han from Yellow Maple Valley

[12:47:35] that I told you about.

[12:47:37] Mind your manners.

[12:47:40] Fellow Han has reached Nascent Soul stage.

[12:47:43] Why would he stoop to a junior like you?

[12:47:50] I am

[12:47:51] Wang Tiangu

[12:47:53] from Ghost Spirit Sect.

[12:47:56] Regarding past events,

[12:47:58] my foolish nephew failed to recognize your capabilities

[12:48:01] and committed grave offenses.

[12:48:03] But,

[12:48:04] I hope you would think about our current joint trip

[12:48:07] to stop talking about this for now. What do you think?

[12:48:14] Wang and I

[12:48:16] had our differences,

[12:48:18] but times have changed.

[12:48:20] How could I hold a grudge against a junior?

[12:48:29] Sir, you

[12:48:30] are overthinking this.

[12:48:33] Hold a grudge?

[12:48:35] This man has repeatedly tried to kill me.

[12:48:38] I haven't settled my score with him yet.

[12:48:44] I'd appreciate you, fellow.

[12:48:46] I'll discipline my nephew strictly when we return.

[12:48:49] As for you, fellow,

[12:48:50] in merely over 200 years,

[12:48:53] you've advanced from Foundation Establishment

[12:48:54] all the way to Nascent Soul.

[12:48:57] It's truly astonishing.

[12:48:59] With enough time,

[12:49:01] reaching Nascent Soul at Final Stage

[12:49:04] might not be impossible.

[12:49:08] It looks like

[12:49:10] everyone here, including myself,

[12:49:13] seems rather average in comparison.

[12:49:35] That old fox

[12:49:37] is trying to put a target on my back.

[12:49:41] Fellow,

[12:49:43] are you really

[12:49:45] barely over 200 years old?

[12:49:51] Esteemed guests,

[12:49:52] please remain calm.

[12:49:56] Fellow Han,

[12:49:59] please.

[12:50:08] Today, we're here

[12:50:10] to discuss matters of great importance.

[12:50:11] Let's not allow minor disagreements to spoil our harmony.

[12:50:17] Our realms differ,

[12:50:20] and techniques vary,

[12:50:21] but we share one common trait.

[12:50:22] Our Spiritual Sense

[12:50:24] is remarkably strong.

[12:50:27] The others are as strong as you said,

[12:50:30] but how did two mere Golden Core juniors slip in?

[12:50:34] Fellow You,

[12:50:35] people like us, with such a formidable Spiritual Sense,

[12:50:38] are truly hard to come by.

[12:50:41] These youngsters aren't powerful cultivators,

[12:50:45] but when they combine their secret arts,

[12:50:47] for a brief period,

[12:50:49] their Spiritual Sense rivals that of Nascent Soul cultivators.

[12:50:52] They should be barely adequate for our needs.

[12:50:56] I've gathered you all here today

[12:50:59] to formally request your company on a journey

[12:51:04] to the Mulan Grasslands.

[12:51:09] Did I hear that correctly?

[12:51:11] The Mulan Grassland?

[12:51:18] Fellow, you misunderstand.

[12:51:19] I'm not suggesting we venture deep inside,

[12:51:22] just the edge of it, about a hundred miles away.

[12:51:24] Even that would be extremely risky.

[12:51:27] Outsiders may not know,

[12:51:28] but we leaders of various factions are well aware that

[12:51:32] the Mulan people have been restless these past years.

[12:51:34] They're camped right beyond the border.

[12:51:37] And they've gathered numerous Nascent Soul Spell Warriors.

[12:51:40] If they found us, we'll be surrounded,

[12:51:43] what then?

[12:51:45] Retreat would be nearly impossible.

[12:51:48] Nascent Soul Spell Warriors

[12:51:50] are masters of advanced Spiritual Arts.

[12:51:52] I've crossed blades with them,

[12:51:54] they're formidable opponents.

[12:51:58] Then why go at all?

[12:52:02] Well said.

[12:52:04] Think twice about this, Fellow Nan Long.

[12:52:07] So

[12:52:08] what's so special about the place that makes it worth the risk?

[12:52:43] Fellows,

[12:52:45] this is a matter of great importance,

[12:52:47] I don't want anyone outside our group, not even a tenth person, to know about this.

[12:52:59] Fellow Yun,

[12:53:01] please.

[12:53:04] The hidden cave abode of Sage Cang Kun,

[12:53:06] is that impressive enough for you?

[12:53:16] Sage Cang Kun?

[12:53:18] You mean that Frenzied Cultivator from thousands of years ago,

[12:53:20] who suppressed both Righteous and Demonic Dao sects?

[12:53:23] Suppressed both Righteous and Demonic Dao sects.

[12:53:25] Frenzied Cultivator.

[12:53:27] Sage Cang Kun.

[12:53:34] (Episode 172 Return to Tiannan Season 4)

[12:53:39] (Watch with Headphones for Better Viewing Experience)

[12:53:45] Sage Cang Kun.

[12:53:51] He's known as

[12:53:53] a madman in the history of Tiannan

[12:53:55] by both Righteous

[12:53:58] and Demonic Dao Sects' top cultivators.

[12:53:59] This audacious Frenzied Cultivator

[12:54:03] could truly be called

[12:54:04] the undisputed number one in Tiannan.

[12:54:08] His abilities were beyond compare,

[12:54:10] dominating both Righteous and Demonic Dao Sects.

[12:54:11] He's a peerless cultivator.

[12:54:13] But he provoked many,

[12:54:15] the Nascent Soul cultivators of sects in Tiannan joined forces against him.

[12:54:18] Legends have it that on that day,

[12:54:19] he took on ten opponents all by himself

[12:54:20] in a battle so huge it shook the ground.

[12:54:23] He kept going until his magical power ran out,

[12:54:25] and then his body blew up.

[12:54:28] So the legendary person

[12:54:30] turned

[12:54:31] to dust.

[12:54:35] But they're just rumors,

[12:54:38] maybe

[12:54:39] so there might be another ending to this story.

[12:54:54] Sage Cang Kun

[12:54:56] was on the brink of death, and he detonated his cultivated Puppet Incarnation,

[12:55:00] using a trick

[12:55:02] to escape.

[12:55:04] But after this battle,

[12:55:05] he was really weak, and he never got his power back.

[12:55:09] And then Fellow Yun and I discovered where he had passed away while meditating.

[12:55:13] It wasn't until we read his final writings that

[12:55:15] this crazy old guy, knowing he was running out of time,

[12:55:18] had his eye on Demonfall Valley.

[12:55:22] He risked his life to enter the valley,

[12:55:24] becoming the only person who ever walked out of

[12:55:26] the Demonfall Valley alive in Tiannan history.

[12:55:30] Sage Cang Kun.

[12:55:31] And the Demonfall Valley.

[12:55:35] The ruins left by the First Frenzied Cultivator in Tiannan

[12:55:38] probably came from the rare treasures in the Demonfall Valley.

[12:55:40] Whatever the reason may be,

[12:55:42] for us Nascent Soul cultivators,

[12:55:44] this is an incredible opportunity.

[12:55:46] I just have one question,

[12:55:48] why would you two share such a big fortune?

[12:55:51] Could

[12:55:53] the activation of these ruins

[12:55:55] require several people with a strong Spiritual Sense?

[12:56:00] To be honest,

[12:56:02] if it were just the two of us

[12:56:03] who could get the treasures alone,

[12:56:05] we wouldn't share them with others.

[12:56:08] But there is

[12:56:09] an ancient restriction outside the cave.

[12:56:12] Breaking it by brute force

[12:56:13] would take far too long

[12:56:15] and probably attract the attention of the Mulan people.

[12:56:17] But if we

[12:56:18] can get eight masters of Spiritual Sense

[12:56:21] to work together,

[12:56:23] within a single day,

[12:56:25] this restriction

[12:56:26] will surely be broken.

[12:56:28] Alright.

[12:56:30] I've said all there is to say.

[12:56:33] Does anyone wish to withdraw?

[12:56:42] I thought not.

[12:56:44] Then let us

[12:56:45] swear an oath with Heart Demon together.

[12:56:48] We'd never say a word to anyone.

[12:56:53] It makes sense that they only recruited Nascent Soul cultivators at Initial Stage,

[12:56:56] They're afraid that when treasures are divided,

[12:56:59] the tables might be turned against them.

[12:57:01] Maintaining this balance

[12:57:02] was no easy feat.

[12:57:04] But honestly,

[12:57:06] after reaching Nascent Soul, just cultivating isn't enough.

[12:57:09] I've got to be willing to take risks

[12:57:12] to advance further in the world.

[12:57:28] After we get back,

[12:57:30] fill me in

[12:57:32] on the beef between you and him.

[12:57:35] He's still holding a grudge against you.

[12:57:39] Yes, Second Uncle.

[12:57:40] I never thought that a single bad decision years ago

[12:57:43] would lead to such a strong opponent.

[12:57:46] But

[12:57:48] there's no need to stress.

[12:57:50] With the supreme power of the Great Blood Spirit Art,

[12:57:53] you couple work together,

[12:57:55] so you might not be too scared of that young guy.

[12:57:58] Once you get to

[12:58:00] the next level in this secret art,

[12:58:02] you can try to reach Nascent Soul.

[12:58:07] By then,

[12:58:10] it'll be hard to say

[12:58:12] who's messing with whom.

[12:58:16] But,

[12:58:18] on this journey, stick close to me, you two,

[12:58:21] just in case.

[12:58:23] Thank you, Second Uncle.

[12:58:24] That guy was a former cultivator from Yellow Maple Valley.

[12:58:29] I heard that old fox Linghu came for the Trading Event.

[12:58:34] Couldn't there be any connection

[12:58:36] between that old fox and him?

[12:58:41] Never mind.

[12:58:42] It's fine.

[12:58:49] The Trading Event isn't over yet.

[12:58:50] Junior Han,

[12:58:52] are you leaving so soon?

[12:58:53] This...

[12:58:55] It's quite sudden.

[12:58:56] I've got to take care of

[12:58:58] something important.

[12:58:59] Would you mind looking after Peiling for me, Senior Lu?

[12:59:04] Don't worry.

[12:59:05] I will make sure she gets back to Drifting Cloud Sect safely.

[12:59:10] Junior Han,

[12:59:11] go for it with your business.

[12:59:12] Senior Cheng

[12:59:13] and I'll take care of things in the sect.

[12:59:18] You could broaden your horizons

[12:59:19] with your Martial Ancestor Lu.

[12:59:21] So your trip won't be a waste.

[12:59:23] Keep that jade pendant close to you at all times.

[12:59:25] If you're in danger,

[12:59:26] you can activate it for protection.

[12:59:28] I can sense it.

[12:59:31] Got it, Young Master.

[12:59:50] Fellows,

[12:59:52] are you all set?

[12:59:56] Let's get going.

[13:00:28] Fellow Han, is this your first time in the Mulan Grassland?

[13:00:32] Millennia ago, this land was full of life.

[13:00:35] But for some reason,

[13:00:36] water sources dried up and sand swept over the skies,

[13:00:39] turning it into this barren wasteland.

[13:00:47] Something's not right ahead.

[13:01:23] This sandstorm

[13:01:25] is more than it seems.

[13:01:28] The Demonic Aura is pretty intense.

[13:01:30] The Mulan people's Wind Spirit Art.

[13:01:32] The Spell Warrior

[13:01:34] what I was up against

[13:01:35] was this very 'Endless Worldly Dust' trapping art

[13:01:39] that blocks Spiritual Sense.

[13:01:40] It's a real pain.

[13:01:41] But it looks like

[13:01:42] they've expanded the art's range a thousandfold.

[13:01:46] Have we been discovered?

[13:01:48] The situation might be worse.

[13:01:51] We've come across the Muran vanguard troops.

[13:01:54] After a hundred years of getting ready,

[13:01:57] Mulan is about to start fighting Tiannan again.

[13:02:00] No one could have predicted that

[13:02:01] they'd start a direct confrontation

[13:02:03] during the Trading Event.

[13:02:05] Now we've got two options,

[13:02:07] turn back

[13:02:08] and wait for another opportunity.

[13:02:10] But you never know what might happen.

[13:02:12] Anything could go wrong

[13:02:15] in the meantime.

[13:02:18] Skip this place, and the problem remains.

[13:02:22] This can't be Mulan's only vanguard troop.

[13:02:26] We could make ourselves invisible,

[13:02:28] and try to slip through.

[13:02:31] As long as we avoid groups of Nascent Soul Spell Warrior,

[13:02:34] we should be good.

[13:02:53] Mulan invasion, vanguard troops have arrived.

[13:02:55] Don't underestimate them, be prepared for battle now.

[13:03:02] Let's go.

[13:03:03] At least one talisman could reach them.

[13:03:06] I hope the Nine Kingdoms Alliance can hold out a bit longer.

[13:03:18] This formation must be controlled by Nascent Soul Spell Warriors,

[13:03:21] I'm not sure about the numbers.

[13:03:22] My Spiritual Sense can't go any further.

[13:03:25] Everyone, be careful.

[13:03:26] Don't get separated.

[13:03:38] He does protect him pretty well.

[13:04:13] Wait a sec.

[13:04:14] Someone fell behind.

[13:04:20] Fellow Han, what gave you pause?

[13:04:22] Everyone,

[13:04:23] don't you find anything wrong?

[13:04:26] What do you mean by that, fellow?

[13:04:29] We've been flying through this sandstorm for so long

[13:04:31] without running into a single Spell Warrior.

[13:04:33] And the scenery around it hasn't changed one bit.

[13:04:37] What does this mean?

[13:04:38] I think we all know the answer deep down.

[13:04:40] Could it be

[13:04:43] that someone has cast a spell to ambush us?

[13:04:44] Exactly.

[13:04:46] I also thought it was a bit strange earlier.

[13:04:49] It looks like

[13:04:50] we'll have to fight our way out.

[13:04:52] They're just surrounding us but are too afraid to attack all at once,

[13:04:54] which means they don't have many high-level Spell Warriors.

[13:04:56] Let's break through quickly.

[13:04:57] They're probably waiting for backup.

[13:05:03] My Spiritual Sense is limited,

[13:05:05] even my Brightsight Eyes can't discern anything.

[13:05:07] This formation is a bit more complicated than it seems.

[13:05:11] There are seven exits.

[13:05:15] Even our Spiritual Sense won't work.

[13:05:17] What can mere eyes discern?

[13:05:19] Watch my Celestial Anchor Compass.

[13:05:44] Follow me.

[13:06:16] How'd that happen?

[13:06:17] Those two Nascent Soul cultivators at Middle Stage

[13:06:19] couldn't detect the Sumeru Worms.

[13:06:23] But that green-robed Nascent Soul cultivator at the Initial Stage

[13:06:26] managed to sense them.

[13:06:27] What's the point of saying this now?

[13:06:28] With just the few of us,

[13:06:30] unless we resort to the Demon God Banner...

[13:06:32] Sage Mu sent word by Voice Transmission...

[13:06:34] Sage Mu?

[13:06:35] The Heavenly Winds Tribe and our Yellow Sand Tribe have always been at odds with each other.

[13:06:38] If a real battle breaks out and damages the Sacred Banner,

[13:06:41] how can we maintain our standing among the tribes?

[13:06:43] Besides,

[13:06:45] the various Mulan tribes have been

[13:06:46] at odds with each other for a long time.

[13:06:47] While Tiannan

[13:06:49] stands united in the face of war.

[13:06:53] The vanguard troops this time

[13:06:55] are led by the Heavenly Winds Tribe.

[13:06:58] Now that the message has been sent,

[13:07:00] let them handle it.

[13:07:04] Let's go.

[13:07:15] Alright,

[13:07:16] that was close.

[13:07:18] We can finally relax.

[13:07:19] We've gone far away from them,

[13:07:22] even if those Mulan folks regret it,

[13:07:24] they can't catch up with us now.

[13:07:26] But we can't let our guard down.

[13:07:28] There are a lot of powerful Spell Warriors here,

[13:07:30] and they've got some crazy supernatural skills.

[13:07:32] We...

[13:07:39] Oh no! It's Wind-Riding Chariot!

[13:07:42] They're bold enough to chase us this far.

[13:07:43] There are five Nascent Soul Spell Warriors.

[13:07:44] They're trying to stall us.

[13:07:48] No need to engage,

[13:07:48] split up, and escape.

[13:07:50] After three days, let's meet up at the marked spot on the Jade Slip.

[13:08:24] Master,

[13:08:24] they went chasing in other directions.

[13:08:31] Perfect timing.

[13:08:38] (Episode 173 Return to Tiannan Season 4)

[13:08:43] (Watch with Headphones for Better Viewing Experience)

[13:08:58] My Crimson Cloak is already at its maximum speed,

[13:09:00] yet I still can't shake him off.

[13:09:02] It looks like this Wind-Riding Chariot

[13:09:03] is really a top-tier flying treasure.

[13:09:06] But if you were to use Thunder Evasion Arts

[13:09:08] or Blood Shadow Evasion,

[13:09:10] this pursuer

[13:09:11] will never keep up.

[13:09:12] This is just the beginning,

[13:09:13] so I'm not going to reveal all my cards just yet.

[13:09:15] I've got an idea.

[13:09:47] Wen Tianren values it

[13:09:49] and always keeps it nearby.

[13:09:50] I haven't had the chance to use it since refining it.

[13:09:53] Today

[13:09:54] is the perfect time to test it out.

[13:10:30] Your Excellency,

[13:10:32] it seems like you're quite fond of fighting.

[13:10:34] You and I

[13:10:35] haven't really been at each other's throats,

[13:10:37] so why not lay off for now

[13:10:39] and hear what I've got to say?

[13:10:42] His cultivation is almost Nascent Soul at Middle Stage,

[13:10:45] and it's higher than mine.

[13:10:46] Yet even with his power alone,

[13:10:48] he cannot detain me.

[13:10:49] But

[13:10:49] it seems he doesn't want to risk his life here.

[13:10:53] It's a great chance to learn about the Mulan people.

[13:10:57] Between a Tiannan cultivator and a Mulan Spell Warrior,

[13:10:59] what more is there to say?

[13:11:01] Either way,

[13:11:02] getting to our cultivation level

[13:11:04] was a walk in the park.

[13:11:08] There's really no need for us to fight to the death.

[13:11:11] I've got a few questions,

[13:11:13] if your answers

[13:11:16] are satisfactory,

[13:11:18] I might be

[13:11:19] willing to let you go.

[13:11:26] Answers?

[13:11:27] Are you sure you gotta get it?

[13:11:29] Why

[13:11:30] don't you hand over this Chariot to me,

[13:11:33] and I'll let you go.

[13:11:36] What do you think?

[13:11:38] You're pushing me too far!

[13:11:42] Today, I'll let you be the ritual blood offering to our battle standard.

[13:12:00] Spiritual Power Manifestation?

[13:12:08] Go.

[13:12:37] You foolish Tiannan people.

[13:12:42] Oh no.

[13:12:50] (Mulan Spirit Art Mystic Cold Crystal Art)

[13:12:54] Let your body

[13:12:57] become nourishment for this Mulan Grassland.

[13:13:03] This is

[13:13:06] Mulan Spirit Art.

[13:13:09] Stop struggling.

[13:13:11] This ice shard

[13:13:12] is shaped by my Mystic Crystal Cold Aura,

[13:13:14] which has been cultivated for centuries.

[13:13:18] You might be able to handle it for now,

[13:13:21] but you cannot endure

[13:13:24] its relentless, bone-chilling cold.

[13:13:30] Save your strength.

[13:13:33] Just accept your fate.

[13:13:42] As expected of a Mulan Sage,

[13:13:46] you have to fight so many battles

[13:13:50] to develop such quick reflexes.

[13:14:01] I gotta say,

[13:14:03] I respect you even more now,

[13:14:05] Mulan folk.

[13:14:09] The Spirit Art

[13:14:11] I've been cultivating for centuries

[13:14:14] was broken by it?

[13:14:17] What treasure is this?

[13:14:18] Could you tell me about it, fellow?

[13:14:21] Let me broaden my horizons.

[13:14:23] Do you think I'm dumb?

[13:14:25] If you want to know this treasure's name,

[13:14:27] just trade your Cold Crystal Spirit Art.

[13:14:32] You

[13:14:33] must always act like a dictator,

[13:14:35] demanding others' techniques and belongings.

[13:14:38] Are you perhaps the young master of some Tiannan Sect?

[13:14:43] You barbarian,

[13:14:45] my name isn't something you should know.

[13:14:48] I just wanted to be nice,

[13:14:50] only to receive such humiliation in return.

[13:14:52] You'll regret this.

[13:14:53] Today, I'll put you in your place, Mulan folk.

[13:14:57] Tiannan folk,

[13:14:58] this is on you.

[13:15:03] (Ancient Treasure, Thousand-Layer Peak)

[13:15:08] Master, be careful!

[13:15:09] It's no ordinary treasure.

[13:15:10] I can see it.

[13:15:25] What in the world is that?

[13:15:26] If being struck by this mountain head-on,

[13:15:28] no matter what kind of insect armor shield I have,

[13:15:30] it will be crushed instantly.

[13:15:31] It won't work.

[13:15:33] Thousand-layered peaks,

[13:15:34] ten thousand ravines,

[13:15:35] it shall never cease until you die.

[13:15:43] This thing moves so fast.

[13:15:46] If the enemy isn't completely suppressed,

[13:15:47] it won't stop?

[13:15:53] As expected,

[13:15:54] no matter where I go,

[13:15:56] it keeps tracking me down

[13:15:57] and destroying everything in its path.

[13:16:01] Still got some fight left in you?

[13:16:08] Once a cultivator is marked,

[13:16:10] even if he manages to escape,

[13:16:12] he'll be locked on again

[13:16:13] until his spiritual power runs dry.

[13:16:16] But if I'm fast enough,

[13:16:17] you'll be the one who breaks first.

[13:16:36] It looks like this thing uses a lot of

[13:16:39] your Spiritual Power.

[13:16:41] And,

[13:16:42] this was supposed to be your weapon for the siege, right?

[13:16:46] Your Excellency,

[13:16:47] isn't this considered misusing official resources?

[13:16:49] Don't you worry that your leader will punish you?

[13:16:54] Out of all the Tiannan people I've killed,

[13:16:56] you're one of the smarter ones.

[13:16:58] But smart people

[13:16:59] often don't last long.

[13:17:01] (Blood Chain Ice Prison, Secret Mulan Spirit Art)

[13:17:02] I've already called for backup,

[13:17:05] in the time it takes an incense stick to burn,

[13:17:06] our Mulan Spell Warriors will be surrounding this place.

[13:17:09] Get ready to meet your doom.

[13:17:10] An incense stick to burn?

[13:17:12] More than enough.

[13:17:25] That's it?

[13:18:07] It looks like these Mulan Spell Warriors are pretty skilled.

[13:18:16] (Celestial Ice Flames)

[13:18:29] Today's humiliation,

[13:18:30] I'll remember it.

[13:18:32] Nascent Soul Excursion?

[13:18:34] He escaped by riding his Magic Tool?

[13:18:51] Are the cultivation resources in Mulan this scarce?

[13:18:54] A prestigious Nascent Soul Spell Warrior

[13:18:56] only has this small amount of Spiritual Stones and materials.

[13:18:58] However,

[13:18:58] Master, congrats

[13:19:00] on getting this

[13:19:01] heavy treasure

[13:19:02] and this Wind-Riding Chariot.

[13:19:07] I've found this trip to be really rewarding.

[13:19:09] Even if

[13:19:10] I end up leaving Sage Cang Kun's cave empty-handed,

[13:19:13] it'll still be a worthwhile trip.

[13:19:15] Alright,

[13:19:16] we should focus on our main mission.

[13:19:18] We need to regroup with the others now.

[13:19:43] I didn't expect

[13:19:45] Fellow Han to arrive before us,

[13:19:49] Getting away from the Wind-Riding Chariot chase of the Mulan folks

[13:19:51] without getting hurt,

[13:19:52] it's truly remarkable how the young are rising.

[13:19:59] Just sheer luck.

[13:20:02] It's impressive that

[13:20:03] you were able to come back

[13:20:05] without a scratch,

[13:20:07] especially with

[13:20:09] two burdens along.

[13:20:13] I'm glad everyone made it out alive.

[13:20:18] Speaking of which,

[13:20:20] as this war starts,

[13:20:21] who's to say how long it'll last.

[13:20:23] In past conflicts,

[13:20:24] the major sects would always

[13:20:26] send Nascent Soul cultivators to battle.

[13:20:28] Exactly.

[13:20:30] With the major factions in Tiannan joining forces,

[13:20:32] the Mulan people probably won't gain any advantage.

[13:20:36] But this sudden offensive of theirs

[13:20:39] makes me wonder if they've received reinforcements.

[13:20:43] Fellow You is also here.

[13:20:45] It looks like we picked the right person this time.

[13:20:47] If we lose personnel

[13:20:48] and can't break the restriction smoothly,

[13:20:50] that would be so bad.

[13:20:52] Wait,

[13:20:54] it looks like Fellow You is being chased by someone.

[13:21:07] Why are two Spell Warriors pursuing him?

[13:21:10] Could it be

[13:21:11] they called for backup?

[13:21:15] I've been leading them in circles for two days and nights,

[13:21:18] and I couldn't shake them off no matter what.

[13:21:21] I had no choice but to do this.

[13:21:28] No matter what supernatural abilities these two have,

[13:21:31] their audacity is truly remarkable.

[13:21:33] It seems like they're not planning to back down.

[13:21:35] Do they really want to

[13:21:36] take on seven of us themselves?

[13:21:40] You haven't fled yet,

[13:21:43] are you waiting for us to collect your corpses?

[13:21:46] You're joking, Your Excellency.

[13:21:48] This is the territory of our Mulan Grassland.

[13:21:51] Once our reinforcements arrive,

[13:21:52] it'll be your corpses all over the ground.

[13:21:57] I was hoping to save some magical power

[13:21:59] before I started my main mission.

[13:22:11] What?

[13:22:12] How is this possible?

[13:22:15] Sage Mu...

[13:22:17] The seemingly young cultivator in green robes.

[13:22:21] Is that him?

[13:22:24] It's most likely him.

[13:22:25] Retreat!

[13:22:33] Fellow Han,

[13:22:35] those two

[13:22:37] seemly payed a lot of attention to you.

[13:22:40] Have you

[13:22:42] met before?

[13:22:43] That old fox is at it again, trying to cause trouble.

[13:22:46] It seems the Mulan Sage's physical body was destroyed,

[13:22:48] but his Nascent Soul managed to escape.

[13:22:50] These two already know about it.

[13:22:53] I never met them.

[13:22:55] This is my first time visiting the Mulan Grassland.

[13:22:57] After getting away from the person following me,

[13:22:59] I've been hiding my tracks ever since.

[13:23:01] How could I ever get to meet other Spell Warriors?

[13:23:05] Alright,

[13:23:06] no matter why those two left,

[13:23:08] our top priority is to get out of here

[13:23:11] and take care of our main mission.

[13:23:22] (Episode 174 Return to Tiannan Season 4)

[13:23:27] (Watch with Headphones for Better Viewing Experience)

[13:23:33] Fellows,

[13:23:35] we're here.

[13:23:36] The spiritual aura here is scarce,

[13:23:37] and there are no obvious landmarks.

[13:23:39] If not for Marquis Nan Long leading the way,

[13:23:40] it would be tough to find the place.

[13:23:42] Is it really here?

[13:23:43] Fellow Nan Long,

[13:23:44] please open the entrance quickly.

[13:23:46] Hold on.

[13:23:49] Before we go in,

[13:23:50] let me remind you of the rules we've set.

[13:23:55] Once we're inside,

[13:23:56] no matter what treasures we find,

[13:23:57] Fellow Yun and I

[13:23:59] will each pick one item first.

[13:24:01] The rest of the treasures will be divided equally.

[13:24:06] Is this okay,

[13:24:07] fellows?

[13:24:13] So, we'll keep the peace

[13:24:14] until we reach our goal.

[13:24:16] But whatever happens after that

[13:24:19] is not going to come as a surprise.

[13:25:11] Wang Chan sticks to Wang Tiangu like glue,

[13:25:15] it looks like I won't have a chance

[13:25:16] to do anything before we get treasures.

[13:25:21] Let's go.

[13:25:23] It's Sacred Restriction of Profound Wonder beneath it.

[13:25:25] Everyone, be careful.

[13:25:52] As expected, it blocks Spiritual Sense.

[13:25:55] This ore looks kinda familiar.

[13:25:59] The entrance's been sealed shut.

[13:26:06] Fellow Nan Long,

[13:26:08] what's the deal with this?

[13:26:14] You overthink it, fellow.

[13:26:15] This is just the outside restriction working automatically,

[13:26:18] putting the stone mountain back together.

[13:26:21] This is exactly what happened last time we were here.

[13:26:24] We only need to wait three days

[13:26:25] when the barrier is at its weakest,

[13:26:28] Nan Long and I

[13:26:29] will be able to split this mountain apart again.

[13:26:32] And,

[13:26:33] with this mountain here,

[13:26:35] there's no way

[13:26:36] those Spell Warriors will find us,

[13:26:39] right?

[13:26:45] Fellow Yun, you're right.

[13:26:47] But it's natural to be suspicious of sudden changes

[13:26:49] when you first get there.

[13:26:51] If there are any more mechanisms,

[13:26:52] please let us know in advance.

[13:26:54] Enough.

[13:26:55] Fellows,

[13:26:56] stay sharp.

[13:26:58] This place

[13:26:59] is where previously Fellow Yun and I,

[13:27:01] our dreams go to die.

[13:27:16] Alright,

[13:27:17] let's all use our Spiritual Sense

[13:27:19] to break this restriction.

[13:27:21] This method is all about stability,

[13:27:23] but it'll take some time.

[13:27:26] There's no need for all that hassle.

[13:27:29] I've recently gotten a rare treasure that specializes in

[13:27:32] breaking all kinds of restrictions.

[13:27:34] But,

[13:27:34] if I break the restriction alone,

[13:27:37] shouldn't I also have priority

[13:27:39] in selecting those treasures?

[13:27:46] Madam Tai,

[13:27:48] go for it.

[13:27:49] The same goes for all of you.

[13:27:51] If any of you can break the restriction here on your own,

[13:27:55] you may get the first pick of the treasures

[13:27:57] after we've made our choices.

[13:28:11] This is the ancient treasure that can deal with all restrictions,

[13:28:14] Thunderfire Awl.

[13:28:24] Incredible speed!

[13:28:25] Without Wind and Thunder Feathers,

[13:28:27] facing such an ancient treasure's ambush,

[13:28:29] it'd be very hard to escape unscathed.

[13:28:31] But using just one technique

[13:28:33] probably isn't enough to break this restriction.

[13:28:51] Break!

[13:29:01] This...

[13:29:02] What's going on now?

[13:29:05] It looks like Fellow Tai just triggered some kind of restriction.

[13:29:07] Oh no!

[13:29:08] The restriction might backlash.

[13:29:11] Everyone, release your spiritual senses quickly!

[13:29:12] Hold on!

[13:29:32] Dammit!

[13:29:34] Thunderfire Awl!

[13:29:48] Wait,

[13:29:49] the restriction doesn't completely stop.

[13:29:51] The spiritual power flow seems

[13:29:53] to be a kind of resonance with these ores,

[13:29:55] attacking our souls.

[13:30:01] Oh no.

[13:30:02] A special defense mechanism of the Sacred Restriction

[13:30:03] of Profound Wonder was triggered accidentally?

[13:30:06] Is it really not possible to reopen the entrance?

[13:30:08] Until the restriction's power weakens,

[13:30:10] it's absolutely impossible.

[13:30:11] If all else fails,

[13:30:12] we'll have to risk Spiritual Sense backlash

[13:30:14] and force our way through this restriction.

[13:30:15] Wait.

[13:30:17] I'm no expert,

[13:30:19] but I'd like to give it a try.

[13:30:42] It's truly worthy of being one of the Ten Ancient Divine Restrictions.

[13:30:45] This formation is called the Profound Wonder Myriad Treasure Formation.

[13:30:48] The only way I can do that is to use my spiritual sense

[13:30:50] and unravel it

[13:30:52] thread by thread.

[13:30:55] If anything goes wrong,

[13:30:56] it will surely backfire.

[13:30:58] That's why it's so dangerous.

[13:31:02] But there's also a method that's like building a mountain from earth that's been piled up,

[13:31:04] or forming an abyss from waters that have been collected.

[13:31:06] But it requires controlling over ten formations at once.

[13:31:09] For the Great Development Technique,

[13:31:11] that's not too tricky.

[13:31:16] So it turns out Fellow Han

[13:31:17] is also a master of formations.

[13:31:29] Break!

[13:31:42] Overestimating yourself.

[13:31:43] Second Uncle, everyone knows you are

[13:31:46] Tianan's Formation Master.

[13:31:47] This isn't his place to shine.

[13:31:49] In situations like these,

[13:31:50] we've got to keep our cool.

[13:31:52] After all, this is the Ten Ancient Divine Restriction.

[13:31:54] It's not so easy to break.

[13:31:58] So slow.

[13:31:59] Can he really do this, or not?

[13:32:25] I never expected

[13:32:28] Fellow Han, you could break this formation alone.

[13:32:31] Good.

[13:32:33] Excellent.

[13:32:34] Fellow Yun and I always keep our word.

[13:32:37] Once we've picked what we want,

[13:32:39] you can also pick a treasure.

[13:32:43] Marquis Nan Long,

[13:32:45] treasures are indeed valuable,

[13:32:46] but if we go deeper,

[13:32:48] could there be more restrictions or traps?

[13:32:51] No worries.

[13:32:52] According to Sage Cang Kun's last words,

[13:32:54] once the Sacred Restriction of Profound Wonder is broken,

[13:32:57] the path ahead will be clear.

[13:33:00] Simple-minded...

[13:33:02] Who would specifically leave last words?

[13:33:05] Fellow Han.

[13:33:06] Please.

[13:33:59] This scroll...

[13:34:02] Is this

[13:34:04] Sage Cang Kun?

[13:34:07] Maybe.

[13:34:08] There's a certain boldness to his attitude.

[13:34:10] But this painting isn't worth much.

[13:34:13] It's enshrined here

[13:34:14] likely for a specific reason.

[13:34:16] It's rather strange.

[13:34:19] It looks like a regular embroidery design.

[13:34:22] Let's put this away for now.

[13:34:24] We'll figure out who gets it later

[13:34:26] when we find other treasures.

[13:35:11] You did leave quite a mess behind back then,

[13:35:15] Second Uncle.

[13:35:16] I...

[13:35:17] But he did just break the restriction.

[13:35:19] Did we need him to show off?

[13:35:21] This place is full of powerful figures.

[13:35:23] They weren't trying their hardest.

[13:35:24] Damn it,

[13:35:25] as long as this guy is alive,

[13:35:27] I won't have a second of peace.

[13:35:28] Enough.

[13:35:29] Let's go.

[13:35:30] Strength reigns supreme.

[13:35:32] That's the golden rule of the cultivation world.

[13:35:35] But this person poses a threat

[13:35:37] to our Ghost Spirit Sect.

[13:35:39] We're past the borders of Tiannan now.

[13:35:41] If anything happened,

[13:35:42] the Drifting Cloud Sect

[13:35:44] wouldn't be able to trace it back.

[13:36:27] Ancient treasures?

[13:36:28] And pills effective for Nascent Soul cultivators.

[13:36:31] This trip

[13:36:31] is worth it.

[13:36:33] These aren't ordinary,

[13:36:35] but they don't quite live up to the legendary reputation of Sage Cang Kun.

[13:36:49] Senior Han, are you also interested in this Yin Condense Herb?

[13:36:52] It's the best catalyst for refining yin-cold type elixirs.

[13:36:58] Yin Condense Herb,

[13:36:59] only century-old one contains the most potent medicinal properties.

[13:37:02] But this herb

[13:37:03] has been here for who knows how long.

[13:37:05] It's useless now.

[13:37:07] I'm amazed to see how skilled you are

[13:37:10] in formations and alchemy.

[13:37:12] I do admire you.

[13:37:14] Young friend Yan,

[13:37:16] don't you know what happened between your husband and me?

[13:37:19] You're talking with me on purpose,

[13:37:21] aren't you afraid your husband might find out?

[13:37:25] How could I not know about it?

[13:37:27] At Yan Family Castle back then,

[13:37:29] my soul was restrained,

[13:37:30] I'm completely unaware of the outside world.

[13:37:32] Otherwise,

[13:37:33] I'd rather die

[13:37:35] than ever agree to their actions.

[13:37:38] If you knew,

[13:37:39] what would you do?

[13:37:41] It was your dad's call.

[13:37:43] Now that the choice is made,

[13:37:45] the consequences are inevitable.

[13:38:16] (Episode 175 Return to Tiannan Season 4)

[13:38:20] (Watch with Headphones for Better Viewing Experience)

[13:38:27] Fellows,

[13:38:29] the treasures in this place have been counted.

[13:38:31] If there are no objections,

[13:38:33] I'll distribute them accordingly.

[13:38:39] Marquis Nan Long and Fellow Yun,

[13:38:42] wouldn't you like to pick some treasures first?

[13:38:45] Maybe the second floor just doesn't grab your attention.

[13:38:57] Wang,

[13:38:59] what do you mean by that?

[13:39:08] Nothing.

[13:39:10] I just think

[13:39:12] if you two don't pick some treasures now,

[13:39:15] it would truly be a pity.

[13:39:19] There's nothing here

[13:39:21] that we should pick in advance.

[13:39:23] What about Fellow Han?

[13:39:25] Would you like to pick something here first?

[13:39:27] I am

[13:39:29] just like you two.

[13:39:32] In that case,

[13:39:34] we'll divide the treasures equally.

[13:39:39] Wang Chan and Yan

[13:39:41] will count as one share.

[13:39:44] Let's go.

[13:39:45] Let's head up to the second floor.

[13:39:59] It's like a bamboo tube,

[13:40:00] and it's an Ancient Treasure.

[13:40:02] I wonder what special powers it has,

[13:40:04] and how powerful it is.

[13:40:07] Judging by their reactions,

[13:40:09] the main show

[13:40:11] must be on the second floor.

[13:40:19] This place is covered in mist.

[13:40:21] Could there be traps or poisonous fumes?

[13:40:25] Fellow You is so cautious.

[13:40:32] It's all good.

[13:40:33] Just ordinary mist.

[13:40:35] Let's go.

[13:40:39] The mist dissipates without any wind.

[13:40:41] There's something strange.

[13:40:53] This place worships a demon god.

[13:41:03] Crimson eyes,

[13:41:05] azure armor, three heads, six arms,

[13:41:07] and it's identical to the patterns on the Sacred Provenance Plate.

[13:41:12] Could it be that the legendary Sage Cang Kun from Tiannan

[13:41:14] was also connected to ancient demon tribes?

[13:41:26] What's written on there?

[13:41:28] Could these be demonic script characters?

[13:42:15] These are indeed demon script characters.

[13:42:18] Wait.

[13:42:19] They're pretty similar,

[13:42:21] but they're even more cryptic.

[13:42:24] Wait, fellow.

[13:42:26] What do you mean, Fellow Wang?

[13:42:28] Wanna test my skills?

[13:42:30] They're already at each other's throats?

[13:42:32] You're overthinking this, fellow.

[13:42:34] I just wanted to check

[13:42:37] if you're cool with just taking the stuff in this box

[13:42:40] and not having to choose anything else.

[13:42:48] I should definitely take a look at them first.

[13:42:51] If it turns out to be useless,

[13:42:53] I'll definitely not choose it.

[13:42:57] If I'm right,

[13:43:01] we promised you two fellows

[13:43:03] the first pick of two treasures,

[13:43:06] with the rest to be divided equally.

[13:43:08] But fellow,

[13:43:10] after you've picked those three jade boxes,

[13:43:11] do you really think there'll be enough left for us to split evenly?

[13:43:22] As expected, they couldn't hold back.

[13:43:32] What do you want, Fellow Wang?

[13:43:34] Say what you think.

[13:43:37] I hope

[13:43:38] you're not thinking of breaking our agreement.

[13:43:42] I have no intention of doing that.

[13:43:45] It's just

[13:43:46] there's not much to divide here.

[13:43:49] These jade boxes

[13:43:50] cannot be penetrated by Spiritual Sense.

[13:43:52] It's highly possible that

[13:43:54] they're the most precious treasures at this place.

[13:43:57] Perhaps even the unbelievable techniques of the legendary Sage Cang Kun

[13:44:02] or

[13:44:03] the secret of safely leaving the Demonfall Valley.

[13:44:08] In these circumstances,

[13:44:10] fellows,

[13:44:12] you still want to examine them before making a decision,

[13:44:17] don't you think that's too much?

[13:44:21] Too much?

[13:44:24] I only know this was our prior agreement.

[13:44:26] Now that we're here,

[13:44:27] there aren't enough treasures to go around,

[13:44:30] what does that have to do with me?

[13:44:32] We acknowledge your priority selection rights.

[13:44:34] But

[13:44:35] no need to open the box to check it out.

[13:44:38] If you still have doubts, fellow,

[13:44:39] go for something else.

[13:44:42] Take the Frost Jade Bed, for example.

[13:44:43] It's also an exceptionally rare treasure.

[13:44:45] Enough.

[13:44:46] No more words.

[13:44:52] If anyone else here thinks

[13:44:57] that Fellow Wang makes a valid point,

[13:45:02] step forward if you dare.

[13:45:04] I think

[13:45:05] Fellow Wang acts so boldly,

[13:45:08] even breaking promises to interfere,

[13:45:11] surely Madam Tai isn't your only backer?

[13:45:25] Nan Long, no need to be angered.

[13:45:28] What Wang said

[13:45:29] does make some sense.

[13:45:31] You won't deny us

[13:45:34] even the scraps of this feast, right?

[13:45:46] Well.

[13:45:47] Very well.

[13:45:50] You were colluding the whole time.

[13:45:53] When did you plan this?

[13:45:56] There shouldn't have been any opportunity along the way.

[13:46:00] Well, not exactly.

[13:46:03] But

[13:46:04] treasure hunting with two Nascent Soul cultivators at Middle Stage,

[13:46:08] we had a quick chat

[13:46:10] to talk about a few possible plans

[13:46:13] before we set out,

[13:46:15] in case

[13:46:16] anything goes wrong, and for self-protection.

[13:46:19] As for the current situation,

[13:46:21] this is exactly what we expected.

[13:46:27] Fellow Han,

[13:46:32] do you

[13:46:34] have the same thoughts?

[13:46:37] Two Nascent Soul cultivators at Middle Stage

[13:46:39] versus four Nascent Soul cultivators at Initial Stage

[13:46:41] and two Core Formation cultivators at Final Stage,

[13:46:43] it'd probably be

[13:46:44] a pretty even fight.

[13:46:49] I don't want to presume to have any opinions,

[13:46:52] whatever conclusion

[13:46:53] Fellow Wang

[13:46:55] or you reach, Nan Long,

[13:46:57] I'm cool with it either way.

[13:46:59] Nan Long,

[13:47:01] why even bother talking to them?

[13:47:04] Do they really think joining forces

[13:47:07] will make us concede?

[13:47:10] Sheer fantasy!

[13:47:12] Yun, hold on!

[13:47:24] Green Rhinoceros Armor?

[13:47:26] As I thought, you've been wearing this treasure close to your skin!

[13:47:46] Good.

[13:47:48] Very good.

[13:47:50] I never expected that even you

[13:47:53] were bribed by them too.

[13:47:58] Bribed?

[13:47:59] I'm afraid he's the real mastermind.

[13:48:01] Be careful, fellows.

[13:48:03] We can't let this jerk escape,

[13:48:07] otherwise,

[13:48:08] given his cultivation level,

[13:48:10] if he gets better,

[13:48:12] we'll be in big trouble.

[13:48:16] Am I right,

[13:48:18] the only descendant of Sage Cang Kun,

[13:48:22] Marquis Nan Long?

[13:48:30] Sage Cang Kun's

[13:48:32] only descendant?

[13:48:36] Kill him

[13:48:38] and we'll divide his treasures

[13:48:40] equally among ourselves.

[13:48:44] Fellow Han,

[13:48:46] if you're down to team up with us,

[13:48:49] the treasures on him will be shared with you.

[13:48:52] What do you say?

[13:48:54] Fellow,

[13:48:56] it's not that we're treacherous,

[13:48:58] but you've really rubbed people the wrong way this time.

[13:49:02] Team up?

[13:49:04] After they take care of Marquis Nan Long,

[13:49:06] these people won't hesitate to kill one more.

[13:49:09] If they really wanted to team up with me,

[13:49:10] they would've included me in their plans long ago.

[13:49:13] We've been around for centuries,

[13:49:16] who would believe such superficial tricks?

[13:49:19] I'm not sure when you all were recruited

[13:49:22] by this friend of mine who's been around for centuries,

[13:49:29] but Fellow Han,

[13:49:31] right now,

[13:49:33] we've got to team up

[13:49:35] if we want any shot at making it through.

[13:49:39] If...

[13:49:40] If we're beaten down one by one,

[13:49:47] our soul and body will be extinct in the end.

[13:49:51] He's just pushing down on his injuries.

[13:49:54] No need to worry.

[13:49:55] Buddy You, keep that Han fellow occupied for a bit.

[13:49:59] Easy enough.

[13:50:04] Once we deal with Marquis Nan Long,

[13:50:06] it's all over for him.

[13:50:09] He's probably

[13:50:10] the weakest among these Nascent Soul cultivators.

[13:50:16] Take it,

[13:50:19] Fellow Han, you're honorable.

[13:50:20] This box is yours.

[13:50:22] If there really are secrets of the Demonfall Valley inside,

[13:50:25] as long as you can get out alive,

[13:50:27] consider it your destined opportunity.

[13:50:30] Even at a time like this,

[13:50:31] he can still divert disaster onto me,

[13:50:33] and make it sound so righteous.

[13:50:35] This man is really remarkable.

[13:50:38] Chan'er,

[13:50:39] you two go help out Fellow You.

[13:50:40] Got it.

[13:50:41] Second Uncle,

[13:50:43] I've been dying to meet

[13:50:45] Senior Han.

[13:50:51] Talking so much,

[13:50:52] but no one's made a move.

[13:50:55] It seems like they're still quite wary

[13:50:56] of this Marquis Nan Long.

[13:51:17] You're scared.

[13:51:20] Go ahead.

[13:51:22] If anyone goes first,

[13:51:23] I'll drag him down with me.

[13:51:27] Brother Nan Long,

[13:51:28] you're not fooling anyone.

[13:51:31] If you keep stalling like this,

[13:51:32] it's only going to work against you.

[13:51:33] Delays are going to cause problems.

[13:51:35] Silvermoon, let's get going.

[13:51:37] Got it, Master.

[13:51:40] Retreat.

[13:51:48] Watch out.

[13:51:48] He's trying to escape.

[13:51:50] Chan'er, full defense.

[13:51:52] Yes, Second Uncle.

[13:51:55] Don't run.

[13:51:57] Fellow Han,

[13:51:58] I've been wanting to test myself against you.

[13:52:03] (Tool Spirit of Trapping Immortal Ring)

[13:52:09] Perfect timing.

[13:52:21] Fellow.

[13:52:25] Spare...

[13:52:26] Spare my life!

[13:52:37] No!

[13:52:38] Wang Chan,

[13:52:39] see you again.

[13:52:42] Second Uncle! Save me!

[13:52:44] No!

[13:52:50] Han Li!

[13:52:56] (Episode 176 Return to Tiannan Season 4)

[13:53:01] (Watch with Headphones for Better Viewing Experience)

[13:53:06] (Moments Earlier)

[13:53:09] Help me.

[13:53:12] This is Ice Flames?

[13:53:16] Good!

[13:53:17] Fellow Han, I never expected you

[13:53:18] to have such incredible abilities.

[13:53:21] If we join forces,

[13:53:22] we might stand a chance against them.

[13:53:25] Stop dreaming.

[13:53:27] You're doomed to die today.

[13:53:47] Since when

[13:53:48] did you become Ghost Spirit Sect's lapdogs?

[13:53:58] Second Uncle! Save me!

[13:54:05] I'm going ahead.

[13:54:09] Han! Don't you dare run!

[13:54:12] The restriction is there, he can't leave.

[13:54:14] Help me capture Marquis Nan Long.

[13:54:18] Master, we...

[13:54:19] Let's get through this danger now.

[13:54:28] Marquis Nan Long.

[13:54:29] You'd better hold on a little longer.

[13:55:04] Damn it.

[13:55:05] How much longer will this take?

[13:55:09] Purple Gold Vessel?

[13:55:10] Are you even giving up on the Ancient Treasure?

[13:55:11] Fellow Han,

[13:55:13] I can't hold them off for too long.

[13:55:14] I only have one Break-into-the-Mountain Banner.

[13:55:16] I need some time.

[13:55:16] Fellow Han, please buy me some time.

[13:55:42] You can control the Sacred Restriction of Profound Wonder?

[13:55:44] Just temporary control.

[13:55:45] I'm afraid that I can only use less than 10% of its power.

[13:55:46] It won't hold them for long.

[13:55:47] You'd better open an escape way before they break the formation.

[13:55:58] It's that Han fellow.

[13:56:12] No good, too slow.

[13:56:14] They're leaving.

[13:57:05] Remember.

[13:57:08] Don't fall into my hands,

[13:57:11] or else

[13:57:13] I'll make you pay a hundredfold.

[13:57:25] What kind of evasion arts are they using?

[13:57:27] How can they be so fast?

[13:57:29] If they escape today,

[13:57:30] they will cause trouble in the future.

[13:57:33] Marquis Nan Long is using

[13:57:34] the unique secret technique, 'Ten-Thousand-Foot Dash Art', created by Sage Cang Kun.

[13:57:38] It drains one's vital energy and even essence blood.

[13:57:41] It's an evasion art that completely masks one's qi.

[13:57:45] As for that Han kid,

[13:57:47] he has a pair of strange wings

[13:57:50] that can control thunder and lightning.

[13:57:52] I guess it's the legendary Thunder Evasion Arts like teleportation.

[13:57:56] No need to worry,

[13:57:57] for Marquis Nan Long,

[13:57:58] I've made preparations long ago.

[13:58:00] So, Yun, you mean...

[13:58:02] I've planted something

[13:58:05] on him secretly,

[13:58:07] when his essence blood can no longer sustain the Ten-Thousand-Foot Dash Art,

[13:58:11] it'll dissolve.

[13:58:12] We can chase him down and kill him by then.

[13:58:15] Let's go,

[13:58:17] we should check on Fellow You.

[13:58:22] Han Li,

[13:58:24] go to hell!

[13:58:26] Husband!

[13:58:27] What's wrong?

[13:58:28] Why not help Chan regrow his limbs?

[13:58:31] I've tried countless techniques already,

[13:58:34] but none have worked.

[13:58:36] This dark qi keeps coagulating around his wounds,

[13:58:38] and can't be dispelled.

[13:58:40] That attack was so bizarre,

[13:58:42] my protective blood mist couldn't stop it.

[13:58:45] To avoid being cleaved at the waist,

[13:58:47] he barely managed to jump halfway.

[13:58:48] What kind of technique is this?

[13:58:50] It seems to be supreme demonic art I haven't seen.

[13:58:53] How is this possible?

[13:58:54] Could that kid be connected to the other five demonic sects?

[13:59:04] This ice

[13:59:06] is unexpectedly vicious.

[13:59:10] Fellow You's physical body is destroyed,

[13:59:12] so his nascent soul has to leave his body,

[13:59:14] and find a replacement body later.

[13:59:16] That's the only option.

[13:59:28] Hold on,

[13:59:47] what's happening?

[13:59:50] Unbelievable,

[13:59:52] the moment his Nascent Soul touched the ice wall,

[13:59:55] it immediately burst into flames.

[13:59:57] His Nascent Soul was incinerated in an instant.

[14:00:00] He reached Nascent Soul in just over 200 years.

[14:00:03] He could effortlessly annihilate

[14:00:05] peers of equal cultivation after just one meeting.

[14:00:07] He masters formations,

[14:00:09] and uses some supreme demonic art,

[14:00:11] and that eerie Thunder Evasion Arts...

[14:00:13] Han Li!

[14:00:15] Where did you come from?

[14:00:19] It's all because of this idiot boy,

[14:00:21] he didn't finish him off back then!

[14:00:22] Husband...

[14:00:23] Now this man

[14:00:25] has become Ghost Spirit Sect's greatest threat!

[14:00:43] Master, you could think of hiding

[14:00:46] in this Mulan merchant caravan.

[14:00:50] This way,

[14:00:52] we can slip away

[14:00:54] from the Mulan Grassland unnoticed.

[14:00:56] This is no ordinary caravan,

[14:00:57] but a temporary alliance of small tribes

[14:00:59] formed to seize Tiannan's resources.

[14:01:01] It seems that this Mulan incursion

[14:01:02] isn't just for plunder,

[14:01:04] but also to carve out their own territory.

[14:01:05] However, we're bound

[14:01:08] to face some delays along the way.

[14:01:13] This trip went kinda smoothly,

[14:01:17] we failed to kill

[14:01:18] that Wang Chan fellow in one strike.

[14:01:22] Quite regrettable, isn't it?

[14:01:23] Nothing to regret.

[14:01:24] Even if he didn't die instantly,

[14:01:26] he's severely injured.

[14:01:28] Besides,

[14:01:30] under those circumstances,

[14:01:31] if I had killed him on the spot,

[14:01:33] Wang Tiangu would not have stood idly by.

[14:01:36] Escaping safely was the top priority.

[14:01:38] A mere Core Formation junior

[14:01:41] is not even worth my attention.

[14:01:42] I'll find another chance

[14:01:44] to kill him anytime.

[14:01:46] So everything was part of your plan.

[14:01:50] However,

[14:01:51] this trip has been quite fruitful.

[14:01:54] Look.

[14:01:58] Three jade boxes?

[14:02:00] While you were examining that scroll,

[14:02:02] I sneaked up to the second floor.

[14:02:04] There were six ones,

[14:02:05] I took half of them.

[14:02:09] I wanted to take most of them,

[14:02:11] but I feared that leaving too few

[14:02:14] would raise their suspicions.

[14:02:17] Among the six most precious treasures left by Lord Cang Kun,

[14:02:21] now,

[14:02:23] four have fallen into my hands.

[14:02:26] This trip

[14:02:27] was truly worthwhile.

[14:02:30] However,

[14:02:31] Master, you're so bold,

[14:02:35] you made covert moves

[14:02:38] right under the noses of so many Nascent Soul cultivators.

[14:02:40] Weren't you afraid that

[14:02:41] I would get caught by them

[14:02:42] after I sneaked in?

[14:02:43] So what?

[14:02:44] At worst, I'd escape by

[14:02:45] Blood Shadow Evasion.

[14:02:48] And,

[14:02:48] since I've decided to do this,

[14:02:50] I'm about 80-90% confident.

[14:02:53] I was worried

[14:02:55] you wouldn't be able to hide yourself after taking the treasures.

[14:02:57] But now I can see

[14:02:59] the ingenuity of your escape technique

[14:03:00] far surpasses what I imagined.

[14:03:04] You flatter me, Master.

[14:03:06] The credit mainly goes to these jade boxes,

[14:03:09] which inherently mask spiritual aura.

[14:03:12] Otherwise, whether I could evade those old monsters' Spiritual Senses

[14:03:16] would still be uncertain.

[14:03:36] This is...

[14:03:48] Master, what's wrong?

[14:03:50] What potent poison!

[14:03:52] Even a trace of it

[14:03:54] could overwhelm a Nascent Soul cultivator.

[14:04:02] Could this be

[14:04:03] the Violet Mithril Net, a legendary Ancient Treasure from the Primordial Era?

[14:04:09] You know it?

[14:04:11] Legendary?

[14:04:12] Is it another Heavenly Spiritual Treasure?

[14:04:14] Not quite, but this treasure

[14:04:16] is exceptionally rare.

[14:04:18] It's a top-tier Ancient Treasure capable of large-scale defense.

[14:04:21] It's said that the Nascent Soul cultivator at Final Stage

[14:04:24] can protect living beings beyond a hundred li radius

[14:04:26] from any harm using it.

[14:04:28] When it's used to trap enemies,

[14:04:30] it can autonomously release a special ability called

[14:04:32] the Jade Sun True Flame,

[14:04:34] which can kill

[14:04:37] even formidable foes.

[14:04:45] Silvermoon,

[14:04:54] you seem quite familiar with this thing,

[14:04:57] have you seen it before?

[14:04:59] I...

[14:05:13] Now that you said it, Master.

[14:05:15] I've just realized,

[14:05:18] in my fragmented memories,

[14:05:21] it seems like a long time ago that

[14:05:23] I had an Ancient Treasure called Violet Mithril Net.

[14:05:34] If this treasure is so powerful,

[14:05:37] why wasn't it mentioned in the jade scroll

[14:05:38] that Sage Cang Kun had used it?

[14:05:41] It's highly likely that he got it from the Demonfall Valley.

[14:05:47] But

[14:05:48] none of the three jade boxes we opened

[14:05:50] has information about the Demonfall Valley.

[14:05:53] If this last jade box doesn't have any information,

[14:05:55] then it must be with Marquis Nan Long.

[14:05:58] Wasn't there any information in the first jade box's scroll?

[14:06:00] That jade scroll

[14:06:01] is about the autobiography of Sage Cang Kun,

[14:06:03] and his primary cultivation technique,

[14:06:05] Moon-Gazing Art.

[14:06:06] It's not suitable for my cultivation,

[14:06:09] but some of its secret arts and cultivation insights

[14:06:11] could still be valuable references.

[14:06:12] Master, let's quickly open

[14:06:15] this last box and see what's inside.

[14:06:29] This is

[14:06:31] a ring.

[14:06:33] The material

[14:06:37] seems rather peculiar.

[14:06:48] At first glance, it looks like

[14:06:58] just an ordinary magical tool.

[14:07:09] But I think

[14:07:11] it might hold extraordinary significance.

[14:07:12] Otherwise, Sage Cang Kun

[14:07:14] wouldn't have bothered storing it in a jade box.

[14:07:17] As we don't know how to use it,

[14:07:19] I'd better keep it stored.

[14:07:23] Master,

[14:07:24] are you also interested in the Demonfall Valley?

[14:07:31] It's the most perilous place in Tiannan

[14:07:32] but it could also be the greatest treasure trove in Tiannan.

[14:07:35] Progressing through each stage of Nascent Soul cultivation

[14:07:37] cannot be achieved through Closed Door Cultivation alone.

[14:07:40] Even if

[14:07:41] we get information about the Demonfall Valley,

[14:07:43] we'd likely become targets of people.

[14:07:45] Those ancient monsters and major factions

[14:07:47] will come flocking.

[14:07:48] Besides,

[14:07:50] the Mulan people are already preparing for war.

[14:07:52] I'm afraid that Tiannan will be

[14:07:54] even more turbulent in the coming days.

[14:07:59] Alright,

[14:08:01] in a few more days,

[14:08:02] we'll be able to leave the Mulan Grassland.

[14:08:05] Let's rest and meditate.

[14:08:09] We'll choose a safer route

[14:08:11] and return to Drifting Cloud Sect.

[14:08:41] (After what happened at Cang Kun Ruins, Han Li escaped the chaos with treasures.)

[14:08:43] (The Mulan army presses forward, plunging Tiannan into fate's torrent once more.)

[14:08:46] (The spark that ignites the survival battle)

[14:08:54] (Farewell for now, and I'll be back)
