Chapter 1253: Chapter 1253

"If Daoist truly needs it, there are indeed two methods."

"The first is, naturally, that Daoist personally goes to the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range to hunt and see if you can find the Heavenly Gang Tiger Kui."

"However, a Transformed Demon Beast is no trivial matter, and being in the deep mountains, if it causes a commotion, it might be besieged by demon beasts. Often, danger outweighs luck."

"Therefore, I still recommend the second option."

"Daoist can issue a bounty order here, hire others to help you find things, not only gaining a wide range of information but also not needing to risk yourself. The only downside is that it’s a bit expensive."

"Money is not a problem."

Chen Sansi decisively agreed, offering some Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, and temporarily stayed at an inn within the workshop, simultaneously inquiring about the recent situation in Thundering Cold Continent.

Just after the Evil God Path sent people to assist the Demon Path in attacking Heavenly Water, the Buddha Sect of the Western Continent suddenly made a move against Thundering Cold Continent.

Nowadays, many cities have already fallen, becoming territories of the Buddha Sect.

No wonder Xuan Sha Lingguan hurriedly returned.

This Cultivation World is indeed getting increasingly chaotic.

Chen Sansi stayed at the inn for several days but did not receive the desired information. When he was ready to ascend the mountain personally, the Lin Family finally approached.

He asked, "Has someone come to claim the bounty order?"

The female shopkeeper leaned against the door frame and said softly, "Recently, with the state of war, those capable of hunting Transformed Demon Beasts are all occupied."

"However, money won’t be wasted; I’ll give you a free piece of information."

"Two thousand miles from here, outside ’Blood Tu City,’ on ’Cold Spring Mountain,’ there’s always been a Heavenly Gang Tiger Ku Beast lurking."

"Daoist can check it out there. At worst, you won’t have to delve deep into the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range, reducing a significant amount of risk."

"Understood, thank you Daoist."

Chen Sansi turned to leave.

The female shopkeeper added, "Blood Tu City is on the border of Thundering Cold Continent. Although not a strategic point, it may experience disturbances soon."

"Thanks for the warning."

Without any hesitation, Chen Sansi planned to go and have a look first.

He packed briefly and set off anew, arriving at the destination within a few days.

The dark Blood Tu City crouched on the ground like a giant beast, its surface enveloped in a layer of crimson boundary, indicating it’s under martial law.

Chen Sansi had to exert considerable effort to blend into the city and inquire about detailed situations.

Like other cities in Thundering Cold Continent, Blood Tu City also worships a deity titled "True Monarch Nine Refines of Blood Tu."

This god is quite peculiar.

The vast majority of evil gods have lived for tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years; their true forms are not in the Lower Realm but the Upper Realm, with only followers spreading doctrines in the mortal world, building temples, and aiding in collecting incense.

Whereas this "True Monarch Nine Refines of Blood Tu," like Chen Duhe, is a worldly god whose realm is not the pinnacle, but has used an evil god’s fruit position early, able to establish his own temple and accept worship from believers.

This evil god’s management style of the tributary land is entirely different from other places.

He never accepts blood meals nor sacrifices living beings, but prefers to recruit soldiers and attack other evil gods’ territories, then massacre extensively.

On the domain of True Monarch Nine Refines of Blood Tu, every household must provide male members for service; otherwise, the entire family must serve labor or pay heavy taxes.

Therefore, he is either engaged in war or on the way to war.

It is said that at this very moment, True Monarch Nine Refines of Blood Tu is attacking another evil god’s territory, yet to return.

This undoubtedly sounds like tyranny.

But based on Chen Sansi’s personal observations, the local people’s lives are much better than those in the rest of the Cultivation World.

At least every household is not starving or freezing!

Upon winning battles, the evil god allocates the plundered items to every soldier under his command, benefiting their families too.

Therefore, the local people worship power immensely, and even without spirit roots, unable to cultivate the Incense Fire Divine Dao, people still practice Mortal Martial Arts.

Every street and alley, various arenas and martial contests can be seen everywhere.

Bloodthirsty, belligerent.

This is what this evil god’s doctrine advocates.

After learning all this, Chen Sansi inquired further about the Tiger Ku, thinking he would have to exert some effort, but it wasn’t a secret at all.

This Transformed Demon Beast, with the name "Huang Liulang," has dwelled in Cold Spring Mountain outside the city for decades. Originally, he loved descending the mountain to eat people, until True Monarch Nine Refines of Blood Tu arrived here and battled him, causing him to calm somewhat, but every time the True Monarch is absent, he still attacks the city.

The City Protection Array is fully activated, not only defending against Buddha Sect’s attacks but also guarding against the Tiger Ku.

Thus, if Chen Sansi resolves the Tiger Ku, it would also count as eliminating harm for the people.

The Spiritual Pearl in his hand can support another "Three Tribulations Exterminate the Primordial Formation." Combined with his own increased power, dealing with an early-stage Transformed Demon Beast, as long as not encountering a siege, shouldn’t pose much problem.

But Chen Sansi still refrained from acting rashly; he planned to first scout out the Tiger Ku’s habitat, then find an appropriate opportunity to strike.

On Cold Spring Mountain, demon energy is dense.

The pitch-black trees reach into the clouds, with branches intertwined like a sheet, blocking the golden rays of the blazing sun.

On the ground, there are scattered uncorroded clothes and skeletons left by living people, and occasionally, a few little demons carrying banners patrol.

This mountain borders the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range; it is inhabited not only by Huang Liulang, but also by thousands of little demons and small beasts, forming a small sect.

Looking around, you can see at the mountain top a collection of splendid towers and grand palaces. If not for the corpses everywhere, those who unwittingly trespass might truly believe they discovered some Immortal Sect.

Chen Sansi lurked in the shadows, waiting for an isolated Wolf Demon, whom he killed silently, skinned, and donned the hide before heading up the mountain.

"Xiao Jiu, why are you still here!?"

A Dog Demon urged, "The king ordered someone to deliver wine and food, hurry up!"

Chen Sansi nodded repeatedly.

He came to the storehouse, picked up a large platter of fresh meat and Blood Wine, and under the guidance of the Dog Demon, entered the palace.

’There’s a great formation here.’

Chen Sansi observed along the way, finding that the palace was protected by at least a mid-grade Fourth Rank formation, making it necessary to destroy the Mountain Protection Array before setting the "Three Tribulations Exterminate the Primordial Formation."

The Dog Demon’s pace gradually slowed.

They arrived before a pavilion; without stepping in, they already felt the bloodthirsty aura.

Inside the pavilion, an elegant scholar and a middle-aged man were drinking together, happily chatting.

They were relaxed, not concealing their respective energies. For more chapters visıt novel⟡fire.net

With Qi Observation Skill, Chen Sansi captured this clearly.

The elegant scholar was the Transformed Demon Beast.

And that middle-aged man had Incense Fire Divine Power within him, also surrounded by Buddha Light, seemingly a secular disciple of the Buddha Sect, surprisingly, a Fourth Realm Cultivator!

The middle-aged man patted his chest, assuring, "As long as the Buddha Sect army arrives, Brother Huang drives a beast tide to assist in the siege. Once accomplished, the Bodhisattva will receive you as a mount and later bring you ascending to the Upper Realm!"

The elegant scholar looked forward, asking, "Master Miaotan truly agrees to admit me into the Buddha Sect?"

"Could it be false?!"

The middle-aged man exclaimed, "Brother Huang, how envious I am of you! Master Miaotan is truly a reincarnated Bodhisattva, just a random blessing from him will be a tremendous opportunity!"

Huang Liulang said in a deep voice, "In seven days, I’ll drive the beast tide to help the Buddha Sect in attacking the city!"

"The Blood Tu True Monarch inside the city is a nuisance."

The middle-aged man inquired, "Where is he now?"

"If my estimate is correct, he should be on his way back."

Huang Liulang said, "I suggest we take offensive action, ambushing to kill him en route. Once he’s dead, Blood Tu City will be defenseless."
