Cultivation: From Servant to Revered Immortal

Chapter 422 - 31: Resolving the Blood Shadow Technique

The old man fell straight down. Zhou Xun extended a finger, and a stream of Qi Force pierced through the back of the old man’s head, exiting through his brow, killing him instantly.

Then Zhou Xun waved his hand, storing the old man’s body into his Storage Bag, and with a thought, he transformed into the appearance of the elderly man,

even matching his aura perfectly.

Seeing this, Zhou Xun was quite satisfied and immediately left Cuihu Hall, heading towards the Jiang Family Territory in the rear mountain.

Using the old man’s identity, Zhou Xun easily passed through several checkpoints set by the Demon Cultivators, finally arriving at the peak where Jiang Wanning’s Cave Mansion was located.

"Senior Brother Cao, why are you here!"

A middle-aged man in a black robe blocked Zhou Xun’s path, looking at him with full vigilance,

this man was the person responsible for guarding here, a Direct Disciple of Master Hongyu, with Late-Stage Foundation Establishment Cultivation.

"Oh, of course, I am here for..."

Zhou Xun smiled slightly, unintentionally moving closer, then a subtle Yin Thunder Arc appeared before the middle-aged man, drilling right into his face.

In an instant, the middle-aged man froze,

then Zhou Xun flicked his finger, killing him with the same method, cleaned up the scene, and proceeded towards the Cave Mansion on the mountain.

Jiang Wanning’s Cave Mansion was not luxurious, but the Spiritual Energy Concentration was not low, reaching the Tier Three Low-Grade level.

To enjoy such a level of Cave Mansion with Foundation Establishment Stage cultivation showcased his status in the Jiang Family.

Zhou Xun waved his hand, and a Token appeared in his hand, which was seized from the middle-aged man earlier.

After infusing Mana into it, he cast it forward.

A clear light hit the door of the Cave Mansion, and with a series of creaks, the door automatically opened, revealing a passage about a zhang wide.

This sound alerted Jiang Wanning and her sister inside.

"Who is it?"

Inside, Jiang Wanning immediately sensed it, with Mana surging at her fingertips, ready to be unleashed.

"It’s me!"

Zhou Xun walked in, simultaneously letting his mind transform him into the appearance of the identity of Lii Feiyu.

"Elder Lii, how is it you?"

Upon seeing Zhou Xun, Jiang Wanning’s tone became pleasantly surprised.

Then introduced Zhou Xun to her sister beside her.

"This is Elder Lii, whom I’ve told you about!"

In his heart, Zhou Xun was the strongest Cultivator he had ever met, and his presence here meant there was a possibility for him to escape.

The scene where Zhou Xun killed two Tier Three Great Demons back then was vividly remembered,

one of which was even a Tier Three Middle-Grade Great Demon. Yet, it still fell to Zhou Xun, proving that Zhou Xun’s actual strength was already at Late-Stage Core Formation Level.

Such a person might even make Old Demon Yulu show some respect.

"Greetings, Elder Lii!" Jiang Wanruo respectfully bowed.

"No need for formalities!" Zhou Xun waved his hand,

and the door of the Cave Mansion closed automatically. Meanwhile, he set up the "Ice and Fire Cloud Array."

Then he said:

"I have a matter that requires your help!"

Jiang Wanning nodded, also seeing that Zhou Xun was here for a serious matter, and instructed her sister next to her:

"Wanruo, you go down first, Elder Lii and I have important things to discuss!"

"Yes, sister!"

The young girl immediately went into the inner room.

After she left, Jiang Wanning looked at Zhou Xun and said:

"I don’t know what I can assist with as a junior, just give the word, although Wanning is now a prisoner, I fear I might be powerless."

"It’s fine, these Demon Cultivators are nothing to me. First, take a look at this Jade Scroll, and you might understand!"

Saying this, Zhou Xun patted his waist, taking out the Jade Scroll that recorded the Blood Shadow Technique and handed it to Jiang Wanning.

Jiang Wanning took the Jade Scroll and immersed her Divine Sense in it to examine,

after a long while, she looked up at Zhou Xun, her eyes hesitated slightly before she asked.

"Elder Lii, did you perhaps get caught by the Blood Shadow Technique, and what you mentioned about help is to use my Purifying True Spirit Body to resolve this spell?"

"Correct, the Blood Shadow Technique has three resolutions, but both the Bodhi Holy Fruit and Celestial Pure Water are too rare,"

"only your Purifying True Spirit Body is the only solution I can find at the moment!"

Zhou Xun nodded, revealing the truth to Jiang Wanning.

His frankness also left Jiang Wanying a bit shy,

after all, the Jade Scroll clearly stated that resolving the Blood Shadow Technique relies on the Yin Essence within a Purifying True Spirit Body Cultivator.

And to obtain the Yin Essence, it can only be through the Unity Dao between male and female, which was quite embarrassing for Jiang Wanning, a Female Cultivator inexperienced in such matters.

However, she was, after all, a Foundation Establishment Cultivator and quickly returned to normal.

She didn’t resist regarding the matter, Zhou Xun had already left a profound impression on her,

and aligning herself with Zhou Xun was much better than with Master Hongyu.

Thinking of this, Jiang Wanning nodded earnestly and openly said,

"Rest assured, elder, my life has been saved by you before, and I had no way to repay. Since my insignificant Spirit Body can be of use to you, take it as you please!"

"Only, elder, since you’re mighty, I have one more request,"

"Please speak!" Zhou Xun said lightly.

At this time, as long as Jiang Wanning’s request wasn’t too excessive, Zhou Xun would agree to it.

Jiang Wanning was ecstatic upon hearing this and quickly said:

"My Jiang family has been controlled by the disciple of Old Demon Yulu ever since Ancestor Xiuying fell. I hope elder, for the sake of this Purifying True Spirit Body, can rescue us!"

"I know this request is presumptuous, but I have no other solutions!"

As she spoke, Jiang Wanning bowed deeply!

Zhou Xun did not immediately agree but continued to inquire:

"Old Demon Yulu is not here?"

"Correct, currently only Master Hongyu, the only son of Old Demon Yulu, and his disciple are at Cuihu Mountain, both at Early-Stage Core Formation,"

"Besides, there are also some Foundation Establishment and Qi Refining Stage disciples, totaling about sixty people!"

Jiang Wanning detailed the situation completely to Zhou Xun.

"If Old Demon Yulu is not present, dealing with them won’t be an issue, but after this matter, your Jiang family may not stay here!" Zhou Xun said lightly.

"Leaving still holds hope, staying means the entire Jiang family would be annihilated!" Jiang Wanning decisively stated.

This decisiveness of Jiang Wanning somewhat surprised Zhou Xun.

"Fine, your request, I shall grant!"

To him, aside from Old Demon Yulu, who was somewhat intimidating, the rest were mere negligible foes.

"Thank you, Elder Lii!"

Jiang Wanning was overwhelmed with joy, knowing that she and her family were saved!

Without hesitation, she walked to the bed, gracefully lay down, and closed her eyes slightly.

"Please be merciful, elder!"

Zhou Xun did not hesitate either, walking directly to the bed.

Looking at the beauty before him, with pale, delicate skin and a graceful figure rising and falling with her breaths, exquisite and alluring.

Zhou Xun waved his hand, a veil directly covering the bed, faintly revealing two shadows.
