Chapter 258 Cultivation World 47
Si Lingle unleashed the Magnetic Cage and Thunder Magnetic Blast, and with a deafening roar, both the evil cultivator and his puppet were blasted away.

The next instant, a vast and powerful thunderous sword intent descended like a sudden storm.

The heretical practitioners were wiped out.

The remaining low-level evil cultivators were also killed by the king and his men.

After the killing, Si Lingyue gave Ziyue a pill.

Four days later, Twilight Sparkle's injuries had begun to heal.

"Senior, I must first bring the body of my fellow disciple back to Yunmeng Manor."

"it is good."

"Senior, may I ask if you may reveal your true Daoist name?"

"Yun Hua, the leader of the Hundred Battles Sect," Si Ling said with delight.

So he's the leader of a sect; no wonder he's so strong.

"Thank you so much, Senior Yunhua, for saving my life. I will definitely help you if you ever need my help in the future."

"Okay." Si Lingle nodded. "When you get back, just say it's my alias." After saying that, Si Lingle handed Ziyue a communication talisman. "You can contact me if you need anything in the future."

Ziyue accepted the communication talisman with both hands. "Okay, senior, I'll head back now." With that, she flew away on her sword.

However, to Ziyue's surprise, upon returning to the sect, she was met with punishment from the Hall of Deacons.

The reason given was that he colluded with evil cultivators and caused the death of his fellow disciples!

Twilight Sparkle retorted firmly, "Who said I want to confront them!"

After a while, Tinglan arrived. Tinglan looked at Ziyue with a frightened expression and said, "Senior Sister, please don't kill me."

Ziyue sneered, "Listen to Junior Sister Lan, I colluded with evil cultivators. It was you who attacked me while I was fighting against the enemy, and then fled on your own."

"Senior sister, how did you survive among more than a dozen Golden Core stage evil cultivators and one Nascent Soul stage evil cultivator?"

"It was Senior Nan Chu who saved her. Senior Nan Chu was hiding her cultivation level; she was a Nascent Soul stage cultivator."

Lan mocked, "Senior Nan Chu, is that the female cultivator you brought back, a Golden Core cultivator at the Great Perfection stage? You said she was a Nascent Soul cultivator. Are Nascent Soul cultivators so easy to encounter?"

"And what a coincidence, he saved you too."

"I think it's just a heretical cultivator in disguise."

“These are all your side of the story. I have a telepathic connection with Senior Nan Chu. I can contact the senior to testify for me.”

"Testify, or let the wolf into the house, and then wipe out Yunmeng Manor in one fell swoop." Tinglan sneered, "Senior Sister Ziyue, it is a fact that you colluded with evil cultivators."

"Ziyue, I am extremely disappointed in you," Junjie Zhenjun said coldly.

"Master, please believe me, I really didn't collude with evil cultivators." Zi Yue didn't understand why her master didn't believe her.

They listened to one-sided accounts without conducting any investigation.

"Ziyue, for the sake of our master-disciple relationship, I will punish you with twenty Soul Whips, abolish your cultivation, and expel you from the sect."

Twilight Sparkle felt utterly desperate; she bit her lip tightly, her body trembling slightly.

Ziyue was whipped twenty times with the Soul-Drawing Whip, her cultivation was abolished, and she was thrown out of Yunmeng Manor.

After a while, Tinglan appeared.

Tinglan carried Ziyue, who was as lifeless as a corpse, away on her magical artifact. When they reached a deserted place, she threw her heavily to the ground.

Ziyue coughed up a mouthful of blood and looked at Tinglan with her life hanging by a thread.

“Do you know why True Lord Junjie doesn’t believe you? It’s because I willingly offered my primordial yin to help True Lord Junjie break through. In order to break through to the Out-of-Body stage, you, his disciple, are completely unimportant.” Tinglan looked down at Ziyue with an air of superiority.

"From now on, I will be the senior sister of Yunmeng Manor, and you will be a cripple!" After Lan finished speaking, she shattered Ziyue's dantian with a palm strike.

"Ah—" Twilight Sparkle screamed.

Tinglan wouldn't kill anyone; she wanted to make Ziyue suffer so she could see her living a good life.

Tinglan abolished Ziyue's dantian and left.

Twilight Sparkle lay on the ground like a corpse.

Her fingers moved slowly, and she took out a communication talisman from her inner garment. This was a communication talisman given to her by Si Lingyue. On her way back, Ziyue had inexplicably hidden the communication talisman.

She didn't know why she had to hide, but she followed her heart.

I never expected it would come in handy now.

Ziyue transmitted her voice and said, "Senior," before the person completely fainted.

When Ziyue woke up again, she was in bed, and she discovered that her dantian had actually been healed.

With a creak, the wooden door was slowly pushed open, and a sliver of light shone through the crack.

"Fairy, you're awake." The handyman disciple Zhu Yu brought over the medicine. "This medicine can help you recover from your injuries. Please drink it while it's hot."

"Okay." Ziyue sat up and drank the medicine in one gulp.

"This is where?"

"Fairy, this is Qiankun Peak of the Hundred Battles Sect. You were rescued by the sect leader."

He's a senior!
Twilight Sparkle suddenly felt relieved.

"Fairy, you should rest well."

“Okay.” Twilight Sparkle nodded.

After a while, Si Lingle arrived.

"Twilight Sparkle greets you, senior."

"Don't be so polite." Si Lingle sat down and asked, "Did you encounter another evil cultivator?"

Ziyue shook her head and briefly recounted what had happened.

"Then would you be willing to join the Hundred Battles Sect?"

“I am willing,” Ziyue said. “Since you have saved me once or twice, I am willing to join the sect to repay your kindness.”

“Very good.” After asking a few questions, Si Lingle took out a Heaven-level cultivation technique and gave it to Ziyue. “This is a Heaven-level cultivation technique, suitable for your Wind Spirit Root.”

"Thank you, Master."

"Practice well."

"Yes."

Si Lingle was very happy; she never expected to find a disciple with only one spiritual root.

It seems she needs to go out and gain more experience; perhaps she can discover more hidden talents.

Six months later, Si Lingle went out to gain more experience.

As Si Lingyue swept past the last barrier of gale-force winds, the absurd tapestry of the far west suddenly tore through the sky.

The gray-brown ground resembled scorched earth plowed by a giant, with piles of rubble forming continuous mounds of bones, among which lay the half-buried remains of bronze buildings—the twisted eaves still faintly revealed the outlines of ancient altars, but were covered with dark red rust spots under the erosion of time.

On the distant horizon, dozens of broken giant stone pillars pierce the sky, the ancient totems engraved on their surfaces worn into abstract patterns by wind and sand.

The most bizarre thing is a black river that stretches for thousands of miles, its water as viscous as asphalt.

The sparse spiritual energy and eerie environment here have given rise to twisted plants, with the roots of centipede-like shrubs exposed on the ground, and each thorn secreting acid that corrodes sword sheaths.

The once delicate moonflower swelled into a three-zhang-tall, fleshy tumor-like plant, with pus dripping from its flower stamens, emitting a hallucinogenic smoke.

When Si Lingle's protective sword energy came into contact with the poisonous mist, it emitted a hissing sound like metal being quenched.

The grayish-purple mist was not ordinary miasma, but rather a "fierce mist"—capable of distorting spatial perception and compressing the range of a cultivator's divine sense to ten zhang.

Even more deadly are the transparent, fibrous substances floating in the fog. Once they attach to magical artifacts, they can cause spiritual energy disturbances. There have been instances where a Golden Core cultivator's natal flying sword was shattered into pieces because of this.

Two-headed sand lizards lurk in the shadows of the dunes, their scales crevices infested with transparent worms called "soul-eating leeches".

This symbiotic organism can attack separately: the sand lizard handles the physical biting, while the leeches transform into mist to invade the cultivator's seven orifices, devouring the Shuangling among the three souls. The outer desert is littered with the remains of cultivators, both human and demon: the skull of a Nascent Soul cultivator half-buried in the sand has been transformed into a storage container, filled with cursed bamboo slips written by later generations; within the chest cavity of a demon skeleton, flesh-and-blood coral capable of producing low-grade spirit stones has grown.

Si Lingle witnessed a team of three Golden Core cultivators attempting to trap a mutated sand scorpion using the "Four Symbols Spirit Locking Array".

However, the moment the formation was activated, hundreds of Soul-Eating Leeches suddenly emerged from the ground. It turned out that the Sand Scorpions were just bait to lure the prey.

In the end, only one monk with a missing arm escaped, and sand lizard scales had grown from his wound.

The sky over the far west is always a sickly dark gold, with giant chain phantoms flashing through the clouds from time to time—the remnants of the "Kunlun Restriction" that suppressed the demon king.

On every full moon night, black slime seeps from the ground, coalescing into faceless humanoid creatures that chant ancient funeral songs. Wherever the songs pass, even the fiercest monsters tremble on the ground.

This land, abandoned by the Heavenly Dao, is both a graveyard for cultivators and a testing ground for breaking through the shackles of cultivation realms.

Si Lingle arrived at a mobile black market formed by three pyramids made of white bones.

Three bone pyramids float in a triangular shape above the sea of ​​sand, with tens of thousands of monster skulls glued together by a transparent crystalline substance to form a base, and ribs and vertebrae interwoven to form a spiral staircase.

Each step is embedded with the eyeballs of living monsters, whose pupils change color with the light of the sun and moon: amber in the daytime to monitor visitors, and azure lanterns at night to guide them.

Three giant dragon whale hearts float atop the pyramid, their pulsations producing a thunderous roar and spraying a blood mist containing hallucinogenic spores over a radius of ten miles.

At the entrance, Si Lingle purchased a token and entered the black market.

The black market sells a wide variety of items.

In the northeast corner, vendors sell "human-faced owls," creatures with the faces of young girls but capable of spitting out the souls of Nascent Soul cultivators. They are locked in bronze cages engraved with runes, and whenever the moonlight shifts, they chant the Soul-Crossing Sutra in unison, causing customers' consciousness to tremble.

The central altar displays "destiny containers": various colored mist-like substances float in glass bottles, with red representing "destiny of slaughter" and gold representing "imperial fortune".

Purchasers must use their own causal threads to wrap around the bottle opening and draw out the contents. There have been cases of demonic cultivators whose three souls and seven spirits collapsed due to excessive drawing out of the contents.

Hidden in the dark alleys of the southwest are forbidden stalls selling "Sand of Time," which has been peeled away from the wrinkles of time.

These crystals can partially reverse time, but users will suffer a backlash—for every 15 minutes reversed, random organs in the body will age by 10 years.

Some unscrupulous stalls deliberately display "secret boxes" to lure cultivators who are visiting for the first time. When these "secret boxes" are opened, they spray out soul-eating leech larvae, and the stall owners take the opportunity to use crossbows to ambush and steal the treasure.

The top-floor secret chamber offers memory for sale: sellers use soul-searching techniques to extract a segment of their own memories and seal it into a jade slip. Buyers can immerse themselves in experiencing fragments of other people's lives, but the original owner's emotions may remain, causing cracks in their Dao heart.

Si Lingle wandered around the black market and even discovered a place that sold humans, demons, and monsters.

There are many reasons why these people, demons, and monsters are sold.

Some were sent here by their enemies, some were slaves, and some were captured and sold here by some monks.

Moreover, cultivators with only one spiritual root were being sold with clearly marked prices.

This black market has a "spiritual root stripping technique," and these cultivators with single spiritual roots will be purchased by some high-level cultivators or large families.

They will separate their spiritual roots and give them to their bloodline descendants.

The young demon cubs are "living artifact embryos," and intelligent demon beasts such as the nine-tailed fox will be made into artifact spirits.

The demon bloodline contains "heaven-defying Dao patterns," which can break ancient restrictions.

There were quite a few humans who were sold, forty-five in total, including men and women, young and old.

Their cultivation levels and spiritual root aptitudes also vary.

They even sell to Nascent Soul cultivators and Golden Core cultivators!
The goods sold on this black market have very detailed descriptions.

This Nascent Soul cultivator was sold here because he lost an internal family power struggle.

He possesses dual spiritual roots of metal and fire, is skilled in weapon crafting, and has a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivation level.

Si Lingle thought this Nascent Soul cultivator was quite good. Buying him would give the sect an extra Nascent Soul cultivator, and the other party was also skilled in weapon crafting, which was perfect since the sect was currently lacking high-level weapon crafting cultivators.

There were also four Golden Core cultivators, two of whom were Golden Core cultivators from the Corpse Yin Sect, but Si Lingle did not take a liking to them.

The other two were Golden Core cultivators; one was a female cultivator who voluntarily sold herself to save her son.

The other male cultivator was a local, a rogue cultivator, who was sold because he lost a betting match.

"I want this Nascent Soul cultivator, as well as those two Golden Core cultivators."

"Good guest."

"Honorable guest, please buy me." The teenager, who was in the Qi Refining stage, said.

A female cultivator with four spiritual roots spoke up: "Honorable guest, please buy me. Although my aptitude is poor, I am very skilled at cultivating spiritual herbs."

Si Lingle scanned the boy with her divine sense and found that he possessed the three spiritual roots of metal, fire, and earth, and was at the seventh level of Qi Refining.

He was sold to this black market by his own father.

The female cultivator possesses the four spiritual roots of fire, earth, water, and wood, and is in the late stage of Qi Refining.

She was a rogue cultivator who was captured by the Netherworld Sect and sold to the black market.

"I'll take these two too." Although their spiritual roots aren't very good, they can still be nurtured.

Moreover, the two of them don't sell their products at high prices.

"Good guest."

They would be bought as soon as they opened their mouths. The other cultivators imprisoned in the cages also spoke up, begging Si Lingle to buy them.

Si Lingle carefully selected and bought twenty-one items.

They also bought two Nascent Soul stage demonic beasts and four Golden Core stage demonic beasts.

Just as Si Lingle was about to pay the bill, a late-stage Foundation Establishment female cultivator with a single water spiritual root spoke up: "Senior, why don't you buy me? My single water spiritual root is much stronger than those with mixed spiritual roots!"

"I can buy whomever I want, no one can criticize me!" Si Lingle said coldly.

This female cultivator's spiritual root aptitude is indeed quite good, but her luck is tinged with darkness, and from her face, Si Lingle knows that this female cultivator is not a kind person.

And it's a huge problem!

Whoever buys her might face the annihilation of their entire family.

Therefore, Si Lingle definitely wouldn't buy it. No matter how good her spiritual root aptitude was, it couldn't compare to the trouble this female cultivator caused.

Si Lingle went to pay the bill, and then found people from the black market to send them all back to the Hundred Battles Sect.

Half a month later, these people and demonic beasts arrived at the Hundred Battles Sect.

Changming Zhenjun has received Si Lingle's message and has made proper arrangements for these people.

Ling Hao Zhenjun never expected that the person who bought him was actually the head of a small sect.

Moreover, the sect leader actually entrusted him with an important task, making him the peak master of Weapon Peak.

Ling Hao was given an important position and secretly vowed to repay the sect leader and make the Hundred Battles Sect stronger!

The others who were brought back were also deeply grateful to Si Lingle.

As for the few monsters that were bought, Si Lingle also communicated with them.

If you're willing to form a contract with a sect disciple, then do so; if not, you'll become the sect's guardian beast.

She didn't care about them.

Moreover, with Jiu Jiu, a Void Refinement stage demon beast, in the sect, Si Lingle believed that Jiu Jiu could tame these beasts completely.

After receiving Si Lingyue's telepathic message, Jiu Jiu had been eagerly awaiting the arrival of her demon companions.

After they arrived, the six demonic beasts were tamed by Jiu Jiu in less than a day.

After taming, Jiu Jiu communicated with the sect members who were at the Golden Core stage or above, saying that if they wanted to form a contract with a demon beast, they could go to these demon beasts' homes to make their presence known and gain their favor.

As long as the monster is willing to form a contract, it will belong to them.

Five days later, a golden roc demon in the Nascent Soul stage formed a contract with Yunya.

Yunya refined elixirs and used them to capture the Golden Roc demon.

After that, other demonic beasts also gradually formed contracts with the sect's disciples.
