Immortal of the Nine Realms

Chapter 64: Terrifying Prowess!

The gray-robed daoist was none other than Li Daoye, who should have left several days ago.

Abbess Clearlotus stared at him in surprise. I thought you left?

I wanted to, but I couldnt bring myself to do so. I was the one who brought you to Great Xia. How can I face your master if you die here? Li Daoye spoke righteously. Thus, I decided to stay behind and join you all in your fight against

He glanced at the surrounding crowd and swallowed back the words Blood Spirit Cult. It would be best for mortals to steer clear of the cultivators affairs, lest it bring them trouble.

Fang Cangyou was startled. He turned to the guards and hollered, Did you let him in?

The guards reddened in embarrassment.

Second uncle, he possesses exceptional means. Our guards cant stop him from slipping into the Fang Manor, Fang Chen explained. He turned to Li Daoye and asked, You know the origin of this item?

Of course! Its Moonsunk Gold. I was lucky to have seen it a few times before. Its a superior material for forging artifacts. You can sense the spirit ki in the truncheon, right? It has at least twelve daosoul imprints. Its good stuff.

Its just a pity that ordinary people cant use artifacts made out of Moonsunk Gold. Its demanding on ones soul, and it cant be activated without sufficient spirit ki.

Li Daoye lamented that he couldnt use or even steal this artifact as he was unable to lift it. Even a twelfth stage Ki Refinement cultivator wouldnt be able to use this trudgeon if their soul wasnt strong enough.

Brother Fang, I advise you to sell it. Its worth a lot, Li Daoye said.

Artifact Spirit ki Celestial Xiao first looked at Li Daoye, followed by Abbess Clearlotus, and her expression slowly turned weird.

Itd be a waste to sell such good stuff. Fang Chen walked over to the trudgeon, looking as if he was going to pick it up.

Li Daoye waved his hand and said, Brother Fang, as much as I am in awe of your cultivation, you wont be able to lift the artifact. Theres an empire called Moonsunk Country that specializes in the production of Moonsunk Gold, and their cultivators are born with strong souls. Only they are able to easily use such artifacts.

By then, Fang Chen had already wrapped his hand around the trudgeons handle, and he slowly lifted it up. It wasnt as heavy as he had expected, and its grip felt better than ordinary weapons.

Li Daoye was flabbergasted.

What in the world is going on? This artifact clearly contains a high concentration of Moonsunk Gold, so how is he able to lift it so easily? This could only mean that his soul is far stronger than I have expected.

The strength of a cultivators soul usually corresponds to their cultivation. Doesnt this mean that his cultivation

War God Fang is our Great Xias number one expert! Li Maocai exclaimed. This artifact is made solely for Fang Chen. Hes the only one who can put it to good use!

In contrast, Huang Sihai and the others acted as if it was only normal. They had witnessed Fang Chens means before, so they werent surprised that he could lift the trudgeon with ease.

Our Chener is formidable. That daoist doesnt know what hes talking about, Fang Cangyou scoffed.

Li Daoye looked awkward. He saw Abbess Clearlotus looking at him too and quickly explained, Im just saying! It goes without saying that those who are strong can still lift the Moonsunk Gold! It appears that Brother Fang belongs in that category.

The crowd paid no heed to Li Daoye and instead looked at the trudgeon in Fang Chens hand.

As Fang Chen infused his spirit ki into the trudgeon, its daosoul imprints lit up one after another. All in all, there were twelve of them. It looked like a mystical artifact.

This artifact must have been lying around for a long time. It doesnt have its previous owners aura anymore, Fang Chen thought with a smile. That saves me days of effort. I can spend my time on other stuff instead.

Brother Fang, why dont you try out its prowess? Li Daoyes eyes lit up with curiosity. He was dying to know how powerful an artifact with twelve daosoul imprints was.

Not here, Fang Chen said. Id tear down the Fang Manor. Why dont you and Clearlotus follow me to the mountain?

Big brother, I want to come too! Fang Zhixue said.

That wont do. Stay at home, Fang Chen bluntly rejected her.

He didnt want her to come into contact with the world of cultivation yet. If an opportunity arose, he would find an immortal cultivation method for her and see if she had the talent to become an immortal cultivator.

Under the rules of the Three Thousand Dao Gate, he couldnt impart the cultivation method he was learning right now to outsiders. Needless to say, he wouldnt impart a demonic art like the Blood Spirit Art to her either.

An hour later, in a barren mountain in the capitals southern suburbs, Fang Chen stood before a giant boulder with Tie Ma, Xu Ge, Huang Sihai, Li Daoye, and Abbess Clearlotus behind him.

The giant boulder was over forty meters tall, towering over them like a little hill. The group of them looked like ants before it.

Fang Chen hesitantly lifted the trudgeon and gently tapped it against the giant boulder. A terrifying surge of spirit ki burst forth. He immediately lost around thirty percent of his spirit ki, but it was amplified many times by the trudgeon before being unleashed as sheer force.

Without any sound, the hill was reduced to a heap of dust.

Tie Ma: Sss!

Xu Ge: Sss!

Huang Sihai: Woahhh!

Abbess Clearlotus: Oh

Li Daoye: ?!?!

The crowd was dumbfounded. Even Li Daoye and Abbess Clearlotus, despite being cultivators, were stunned by what they were witnessing too. A touch from the weapon actually disintegrated the giant boulder before them?

What would happen if such force was exerted on a human instead?

This is terrifying! As expected of an artifact with twelve daosoul imprints! With such force, you could threaten a Foundation Establishment cultivator Why cant I meet with such a fortuitous encounter? Li Daoye cried in indignation, though he knew that he wouldnt be able to use it even if he stumbled upon such an artifact.

With this artifact in hand, itd be easier for War God Fang to purge Great Xia of Blood Spirit Cultists. This is good news. Abbess Clearlotus looked at Li Daoye with excited eyes.

Indeed, indeed. Li Daoye perfunctorily nodded.

Blood Spirit Cult? Itd still be best to steer clear of them. If even a twelve daosoul imprint artifact harnesses such power, how strong would those Foundation Establishment and Golden Core cultivators from the Blood Spirit Cult be?

It might not be beyond them to burn the sky and vaporize oceans!

Young master, congratulations on obtaining this treasure! Huang Sihai clasped his fist and exclaimed. With this trudgeon, youll be able to bring down countless enemy soldiers with a single swing. Lets see who else dares to mess with our Great Xia!

Tie Ma and Xu Ge were overjoyed too. Fang Chen becoming stronger was good news to them.

Its indeed a treasure, but it takes a lot out of me to use it, Fang Chen murmured.

His cultivation was still not high enough yet. Hed be able to wield the trudgeon with greater ease if he was at sixth or seventh stage Ki Refinement, but for the time being, he could only use it as a trump card.

With a sigh, he stowed the trudgeon into his storage ring. It was lucky that there was no concept of time or weight in the storage ring, so he could easily bring it around.
