Yarman returned the greeting, saying, "Brother Li, please stay for a few more days. I'll be right back." With that, he left with Im.
Walking along the road, Im couldn't help but ask, "What level is a Great Supernatural Being? And what about you two..."
“Great supernatural beings are just the level in their world.” Yarman explained with a smile, “The level in this world is quite complicated. Rulers and above are immortals, and below them are sorcerers, mages, true beings, supernatural beings, and great supernatural beings. Supernatural beings are great wizards, and great supernatural beings are legends.”
"As for that person, he's a cheap sucker, a fool who doesn't realize he has a mountain of treasures."
Listening to Yarman's explanation, Im nodded as if she understood, with a hint of doubt in her eyes. During their conversation, her Observation Haki told her that the person opposite her seemed to think the same way.
However, she didn't care. She even hoped that Yarman would suffer a loss and slow down the progress, so that Yarman wouldn't return to Terra so quickly, and she could have Yarman all to herself for a longer period of time.
The two walked out of the city. Instead of heading to their destination immediately, Yarman found a nearby mountain, found an open space on the mountaintop, sat down cross-legged, and took out four books.
He planned to finish studying the contents of these four books before addressing his target, whose strength had reached the edge of becoming a ruler, enough for him to put what he had learned into practice.
Seeing Yarman sitting on the open ground and beginning his cultivation, Im, bored, walked to the side, drew his short blade, casually cut a boulder in half, sat on the smooth end, and watched him cultivate.
Chapter 326: I'll borrow your head for a moment!
"Wow~~~~~ The cultivation methods in this world are truly unique!"
Yarman slowly stood up from the ground. He looked at Im, who was sitting on a large rock to the side, propping his head up with his left hand and casually swinging a short blade with his right. "Would you like to give it a try?"
"Huh? Try what?"
“Try practicing the cultivation methods of this world.” Yarman took out the Five Elements Body Refining Technique and his cell phone from his pocket. “These are the two I’m practicing right now. If you’d like, you can try them too.”
Looking at the book and phone in front of her, Im casually picked them up and used her Observation Haki to scan the book, memorizing all its contents. Then she opened her phone, looked at the cultivation manual on the table, gently tapped it, and began to carefully read the text on the screen.
Seeing that she had started looking at the cultivation technique, Yarman did not sit idle. Instead, he began to think on the spot. He was trying to integrate the Magic Energy Infusion Cell Sublimation Technique, the Five Elements Path, and the Cthulhu system together.
A moment later, Im raised his head and looked at Yarman, whose brows were slightly furrowed. "What are you doing now?"
“I’m thinking about how to combine the two techniques with the Cthulhu system.” Yarman’s brows relaxed as he looked at the curious Im. “I’ve made some progress, but it’s not very useful. To go further, I need more reference materials and more basic techniques.”
“There’s still plenty of time, no need to rush,” Im said with a smile, returning the book and phone to Yarman. She didn’t really need these things; they were more for reference.
Clutching the phone and Su in his arms, Yarman looked into the distance. "It's time to set off and take care of the target."
…………
"Do you even know the exact location of the target?!" Im looked at Yarman beside him, who was holding a star map and occasionally comparing it with the surrounding environment. "It's been so long, and you still haven't found it?"
He put the star map into his pocket and looked at the surrounding mountains. "The location on the briefing is just in this mountain range. There is no precise location, no latitude or longitude. The target description is also very vague. Um... peculiar clothing, handsome appearance, there is no precise adjective."
Hearing his words, Im was speechless. She asked again, "Don't you have a photo or portrait of that person? The cultivation world should have high-definition image capture technology, right?"
“Yes, they do, but they don’t use it.” Yarman was even more helpless. He spread his hands. “That kind of technology is only for Dominators and above. That person hasn’t reached the Dominator level yet, so he doesn’t have it.”
"Then how do we find that person?"
"Let me scan with my mental energy to see where they are." Yarman closed his eyes slightly, and a vast amount of mental energy surged out, instantly covering the entire mountain range. The situation of the entire mountain range was clear at a glance, but he encountered a new problem, namely, there were too many suspects.
Slowly opening his eyes, Yarman said with some surprise, "This mountain range could be renamed Thief Mountain. There isn't a single decent person here. Tomb raiders, murderers, smugglers, highway robbers, black market innkeepers... it's a den of thieves. So, which one is our target?"
"Did the briefing describe any characteristics?" Im asked, standing to the side with his arms crossed.
Yarman recalled the briefing and said seriously, "It said that they were operating as a gang, their target was the gang leader, and the magic weapon they used was the Ten Thousand Soul Banner, a very classic traditional magic weapon, but the method of refining it was different. It did not only focus on the soul, but also required more biological blood."
"So, you're planning to lure the snake out of its hole?" Im asked Yarman, holding a short blade. "We'll find a cultivator, have a big fight, make a scene, let everyone know, then severely injure him, leave him aside, wait for him to come and pick up the pieces, and then kill him and his entire gang?"
"...Okay, but that's not what I think."
"Then what do you think?"
“When I was scanning the mountains just now, I found a person who was seriously injured.” Yarman turned to look at Im, a smile on his face. “A great sorcerer, still a long way from becoming a ruler.”
Seeing the smiling Yarman, Im immediately understood and nodded with a smile, "Then let's go!"
"Alright, let's go!"
…………
Sitting slumped in the cave, Lin Shu closed his eyes and continuously circulated his internal energy to heal his injuries. He was originally a true disciple of a sacred land, and this trip was to seek an opportunity to become an immortal. When he arrived at this mountain range, he did indeed discover an immortal's ruins, but he never expected that the ruins were a fake.
When he excitedly entered the ruins, eager to see what was inside, he realized he had been tricked; the place was a fake, fabricated site.
When he realized this and prepared to leave, he was surrounded by a group of demonic cultivators. The leader was slightly stronger than him, and the Ten Thousand Souls Banner in his hand was quite strange. The ghosts in it were not only fierce, but also had a bloody aura that seemed to be alive, completely lacking the coldness of ordinary ghosts.
Of course, even so, that person couldn't do anything to him, but the group's coordination was indeed impressive. The dozen or so people formed a formation like a single entity, and their attacks overwhelmed him, leaving him no choice but to surrender.
Finally, despite being severely injured, he managed to kill five gang members, forcefully breaking through the great formation and escaping the ruins. Pursued by the group, he fled relentlessly until he reached this place, where his injuries could no longer be suppressed. He had no choice but to stop and find a cave to heal.
Now, those people have caught up, and his injuries won't heal anytime soon.
He suddenly opened his eyes, wielded the magic sword beside him and slashed forward, completely annihilating a ghost that seemed to be alive. He forcibly suppressed the injuries in his body and slowly walked out of the cave.
Outside the cave, a handsome man dressed in black, holding the Ten Thousand Souls Banner in one hand, was leading a group of people, surrounding the cave entrance and looking at him with a cold smile.
Seeing the demonic group in front of him, Lin Shu did not hesitate. The magic sword in front of him suddenly flew out and slashed at the group in front of him. The man waved the Ten Thousand Souls Banner, and a huge amount of Yin energy surged out of the banner. Streams of Yin souls with bloody aura flew out of the banner and fought with the magic sword. The people on the side used their supernatural powers to attack.
A moment later, Lin Shu's protective spell was shattered. Seeing the powerful spells coming one after another, his eyes widened in fury. He tried to recall his magic sword to protect himself, but his energy was already exhausted, and he could only watch helplessly as the spells attacked him.
"Bong!"
After a loud bang, the entire hill was blasted into countless fragments by the supernatural power. Everyone smiled, thinking that Lin Shu had been killed. But when the smoke cleared, they were dumbfounded.
There was clearly only one person, so how did it become three people after the explosion?
"Finally found it! This place is huge!" Yarman casually brushed away the dust in the air, looked at the group of demonic cultivators in front of him, and a relaxed expression appeared on his face. Now, the problem was solved.
For him, the problem was never about killing these people, but about finding them.
Before the person on the other end could speak, Yarman said directly, "Hey you over there, yes, you, the one with the flag, there's something I want to discuss with you. I want to borrow something from you!"
"..."
"That thing is very simple, it's your head!"
"Kill him!"
Chapter 327: Only Two People in This World Can Stop Me
One after another, the vengeful spirits flew toward the two of them. Not far away, the leader kept waving the Ten Thousand Souls Banner in his hand. The dense vengeful energy seemed to be unable to dissipate around his body. The vengeful energy that occasionally escaped outside the battlefield almost turned the nearby mountains into barren mountains.
The remaining gang members used their most proficient supernatural abilities, but surprisingly, they did not form a battle formation. Instead, they moved around in battle formations, constantly using their various supernatural abilities.
Holding a short blade, Im casually sliced through all the magical spells that flew towards her. These gang members, whose strength was generally at the level of a great wizard, were nothing to her.
“Let’s not drag this out any longer.” Im looked at Yarman beside him, his short blade flashing incessantly. “The leader and his ghost are yours to handle. I’ll deal with these people.”
"Alright, you handle it. It's best not to... never mind, just kill them." Yarman was about to suggest that it would be best to only destroy their bodies and energy storage sites, but after thinking about it, he decided against it. He figured that killing them was fine, since Im wouldn't absorb their energy anyway, and even if he did, it wouldn't be worth much.
Im turned to look at him. "What's wrong?"
“No, it’s just that everything I do in this world eventually comes at a price, including murder. I’ve been keeping things under control for the sake of my wallet.” Yarman waved his hand casually. “If you kill someone, it will definitely be on my head, but go ahead and kill them, it’s not worth much anyway.”
Im nodded and rushed towards the distance. The short blade in his hand was like a viper's tongue. Before the nearest gang members could react, their throats were easily cut open by the pitch-black short blade covered in Armament Haki.
She originally intended to cripple them, but when she was about to take action, she embarrassingly realized that these people's cultivation paths were too chaotic, and she couldn't figure out exactly where to strike them to cripple them.
However, the short blade was already drawn, and the hand was already moving; it was impossible to delay, so it was better to just kill him.
Standing on the only remaining small mound, Yarman calmly watched the ghosts flying towards him, a strange light flashing in his eyes. These ghosts were truly unique; these extremely yin beings were actually filled with extremely yang blood energy, even stronger than that of ordinary blood energy martial artists. It was truly outrageous.
"careful!"
Seeing this, Lin Shu, who was standing behind him with his magic sword, loudly reminded him, "These spirits cannot be judged by ordinary standards. Common exorcism spells are completely ineffective against them, and they are proficient in hand-to-hand combat, even more so than..."
"boom!"
Yarman's expression remained unchanged. He slowly reached forward with his right hand and precisely grabbed the head of the first ghost. Golden-red flames surged from his palm, instantly burning the ghost in his hand to ashes.
“It is indeed different. When it burns, it is just like burning a living person, but it is still a ghost after all.” Yarman casually dispelled the last trace of yin energy, turned his head to look at the swarming ghosts, and slowly punched forward with his left hand. A massive amount of the five elements true energy surged out and annihilated all the approaching ghosts.
Withdrawing his left hand, Yarman casually dispelled the remaining Yin energy, turned to look at the leader not far away, whose face was ashen and who held the Ten Thousand Souls Banner. Without saying a word, he raised his hand and unleashed a crystal-clear five-colored ray of light.
The light streaked through the air, disintegrating all the ghosts and yin energy in its path. Dozens of blood-red ghosts were pierced through the air by the light, turning into a sky full of yin energy before finally dissipating. The remaining power of the light did not diminish, and it flew straight toward the gang leader, whose face had changed drastically, not far away.
Suddenly waving the Ten Thousand Souls Banner in his hand, the gang leader's eyes widened in fury. A massive amount of Yin energy surged out from the banner, and the battlefield seemed to turn from day to night in an instant. Even the light of the stars hanging high in the sky could not penetrate this dense and impenetrable Yin energy. At this moment, the battlefield turned into the underworld.
Seeing this, Yarman remained calm and stood still. It was just a thick mass of Yin energy, which was perfect for testing the power of the Lesser Five Elements Annihilation Divine Light.
Looking at the divine light crisscrossing in the yin energy, he nodded slightly. Although it was worlds apart from the deconstruction rays of the gray-robed wizard, in essence, it already had some of the world-destroying power of the star rays.
"You...aren't you afraid of death? Can't you see this dense Yin energy?!" Lin Shu exclaimed in shock as she looked at the Yin energy in front of her, which was expanding and contracting like a living thing, resisting the divine light.
Upon hearing this, Yarman smiled dismissively. "It's just a little bit of hardship, what's there to be afraid of? If you're scared, you should leave now. Your injuries have almost healed, and you can fly on your sword again."
"...Have you become an immortal?"
"not yet."
"This pure Yin energy is so powerful that even a true immortal would find it difficult to withstand. How could you, a great supernatural being, possibly..."
Yarman did not respond to his words. He just stared at the divine light being completely swallowed up by the massive amount of yin energy before slowly raising his right hand and punching the yin energy in front of him. The surging and violent five elements true energy, like a tsunami, burst out and evolved yin and yang in its rush. Everything in its path turned into nothingness.
"Boom!"
With a loud bang, dawn broke.
Lin Shu stared dumbfounded at the Yin energy that had been completely annihilated by the fist intent. He was so stunned that he didn't even notice his magic sword falling to the ground. The immortal-level Yin energy that the gang leader had created by burning the essence of the Myriad Soul Banner and giving it his all was actually destroyed by Yarman's punch!
After a long moment of stunned silence, he finally came to his senses and looked at Yarman in shock, "You're really a great supernatural being?"
"Whether I'm a great supernatural being or not, what does that have to do with me defeating a celestial-level supernatural power?" Yalman turned to look at Lin Shu, sizing him up and down. "You're still a bit naive!"
After a long silence, Lin Shu murmured, "A great supernatural being, capable of destroying immortal-level supernatural powers... If you were to become an immortal, would there be anything in this world that could stop you?"
“Yes,” Yarman replied calmly. He glanced at the gang leader, who lay sprawled on the ground, motionless like a dead man, and then looked at Im, who was wiping his dagger. “There are two here.”
"where?"
“There’s one over there, and another one in the sky.” Yarman looked at Im, who was smiling broadly not far away, and then glanced up at the sky. Mostima was definitely watching him too.
Lin Shu glanced at Im not far away. He thought about it seriously. Judging from their relationship, they should be husband and wife. In other words, only his wife could control this man.
At this moment, Im walked up carrying a short knife, put her arm around Yarman, and said with a smile, "You're still as amazing as ever!"
"Sigh, it's far from that now." Yarman shook his head. He had to take a little serious action against a mere legendary-level opponent. In the past, he wouldn't even need to lift a finger; any one of his warriors could have solved the problem.
He slowly walked forward, shattered the gang leader's heart, and stored the corpse in a spatial magic artifact. "Alright, the matter is resolved. Let's go back."
"it is good!"
Seeing the two about to leave, Lin Shu instinctively raised her hand and called out, "Don't go!"
“……?” ×2
"Um... there's something I'd like to ask you for help with." Lin Yi was a little frightened by the two men's gazes, so he quickly said, "I'm seriously injured. Could you please take me back to my sect? I can offer you a reward."
"Compensation? What compensation?"
What do you want?
"I want various basic cultivation methods, preferably from different cultivation systems," Yarman said bluntly.
"..."
"What? You don't have one?"
"Yes, there are many. You can see them all if you want!"
"Okay, deal! Get on board."
Chapter 328: I Have Achieved All My Cultivation Goals
The two walked side by side, and Lin Shu, who was following behind, was almost exhausted.
"No, no! Slow down!" Lin Shu plopped down on the ground and shouted at the two of them without any regard for her image, "Are you in a hurry to get home for dinner? Why are you running so fast!"
“You’re right, we were actually planning to go back for dinner.” Yarman stopped and looked at Lin Shu behind him, who was sweating profusely and had a sickly ruddy complexion. He sighed slightly, walked forward, and a green light appeared on his hand. Then he slapped Lin Shu on the back and injected the energy into his body.
Seeing Yarman using his life authority, Im slowly stepped forward and asked curiously, "Why didn't you use your authority from the beginning?"
“If I were to use my authority directly, would there be any point in me coming here?” Yarman turned to look at Im and said calmly, “I am not here to cultivate, but to conduct research. Becoming an Outer God is very simple; there is no need to come here at all.”
As he spoke, he turned to look at Lin Shu, "Get up now that you've recovered, don't sit on the ground anymore. It's getting late, we need to get back for dinner! By the way, let me see how far we are from that city."
Yarman took the star map out of his pocket, glanced at it briefly, and then put it back in his pocket. "There are still seven hundred miles to go. We should be able to get back before dark, depending on whether you can move."
Feeling a little awkward under their gazes, Lin Shu stood up and dusted himself off. "Why are you two so insistent on going back for dinner? At our level, we could have already fasted, couldn't we? Why insist on dinner? What's wrong with taking it a little longer?"
"What is the purpose of your cultivation?" Yarman did not answer directly, but asked him in return.
Lin Shu was stunned by the question. He stood there for a long time before saying with some uncertainty, "Um...maybe it's for longevity? To pursue the Great Dao and become an immortal? All cultivators in the world pursue these things, and secondly, to realize their early ideals or something."
“Yes, that’s right.” Yarman nodded seriously and said, “But I have already achieved my goals of immortality, pursuing the Great Dao, and becoming an immortal ancestor.”
