Chapter 985 - 985 37 Old Acquaintance of East Saint_2

Chapter 985: Chapter 37 Old Acquaintance of East Saint_2 Chapter 985: Chapter 37 Old Acquaintance of East Saint_2 Zhou Luye was curious.

“Dao of Curse does exist, but it’s all fragmented curses collected by the predecessors of the Sect, not systematic.

Many are just common goods circulating on the market.

However, the curses of Wanzhou School are different; they form a system and are relatively complete.

Each generation can cultivate one or two Nascent Soul Cultivators, which is very difficult for a small country.”

Li Yingfu explained.

Hearing that Wanzhou School could cultivate Nascent Soul Cultivators in every generation, Wang Ba was also somewhat surprised.

In a small country, whether it’s resources, environment, cultivation methods, and so on, they are all far inferior to those of a large country.

...

They are also controlled and squeezed by the large countries in various aspects.

As a result, the gap between the cultivators they could cultivate was extremely exaggerated.

It’s not an exaggeration to say that all the Golden Core and Nascent Soul cultivators in a small country’s Sects combined may only be as powerful as a mid-level legacy of Wanxiang Sect.

On the flip side, a small country Sect that can steadily maintain Nascent Soul cultivation in each generation also shows that this Sect’s legacy must have its special features.

Thinking of this, Wang Ba became even more anticipative:

“Enforcer Li, how much longer until we reach Wanzhou School?”

Upon hearing this, Li Yingfu’s Spiritual Sense spread out, and soon a smile appeared on his face.

“I’ve already seen the boundary tablet of Wanzhou School; it shouldn’t be too far ahead.”

Wang Ba curiously lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked outside.

He saw that the dense forest, which seemed endless before, had started to thin out here.

He could vaguely see the black soil under the trees.

Before long, as the carriage moved leisurely forward, he soon saw a huge azure-black stone tablet standing at the edge of the horizon, piercing the sky like an incense stick.

On the tablet were a few upright characters:

‘Wanzhou School’.

As they approached Wanzhou School, the number of cultivators coming and going gradually increased.

Wang Ba also saw several cultivators’ figures hurriedly flying by.

However, they all quite tacitly maintained a distance from one another and did not easily probe with their Spiritual Sense.

“Wanzhou School, being skilled in curse techniques, often makes talismans and magic tools with curse arts to sell.

Nowadays with quite a number of cultivators accumulated in Sen State, the business of Wanzhou School is getting better,” said Li Yingfu with a sense of emotion.

Wang Ba nodded, not unfamiliar with this.

He still remembered the first major battle he experienced in his life, which was the confrontation between East Saint Sect and Tianmen Cult.

Then, Elder Qin from the Rectification Room of East Saint Sect used Wanzhou School’s ‘Phantom Life Curse’ to curse a defector Golden Core cultivator to death.

The other party was completely unaware beforehand.

This shows the uniqueness of Wanzhou School’s curse techniques.

No wonder people come to purchase from them.

However, while thinking about this, he could not help but feel a bit puzzled:

“Where did those people from East Saint Sect go afterward?”

“Tianmen Cult has been destroyed, but they’ve never come back.”

“And, how is Ye Lingyu now?”

In his mind, the image of a naive and lively girl in purple clothes surfaced again.

Towards this girl, he had no other intentions.

It’s just that every time he thought of her, he would recall the few encounters they had.

He remembered those extremely difficult times…

He shook his head imperceptibly.

Elder Qin had tried his best to spirit possess Ye Lingyu, and now, so many years later, he likely succeeded.

Even if he now had the ability to stop it, it would no longer help.

With these thoughts, he was about to lower the curtain.

But at that moment, Wang Ba suddenly froze, his expression one of disbelief.

He looked incredulously toward a spot not far away.

“What a coincidence?”

There, three figures were sitting cross-legged on a flying boat, also headed towards Wanzhou School.

Their speed was slightly faster than the Triangular Rhino.

Feeling Wang Ba’s gaze, the middle one of the three figures, a gray-robed cultivator with white at his temples and a slightly haggard face, immediately looked up alertly.

Seeing it was an unfamiliar young face, he appeared a bit astonished but the wariness on his face did not fade.

Noticing the middle-aged cultivator’s reaction, a cultivator at his side quickly whispered:

“Sect Master, what is it?”

The middle-aged cultivator watched the slowly trailing carriage and the early-stage Golden Core cultivator driving it, silent for a short while before shaking his head:

“Nothing…

Later, don’t speak.

I will go and negotiate with the people of Wanzhou School.”

Hearing the middle-aged cultivator’s words, a sallow-faced cultivator couldn’t help but say:

“Sect Master, what’s there to negotiate?

Every year we give so many Spirit Stones as tribute to Wanzhou School!

How can we have the resources to support new disciples?

The merits from my Merit Room can’t even be exchanged for Spirit Stones!

And now they want to increase the tribute!

If you ask me, we should never have come to this wretched Sen State…”

“Junior Brother Gao!

Don’t speak nonsense!”

An older cultivator couldn’t help but reprimand in a low voice.

But the middle-aged cultivator gently stopped him, with a look of melancholy:

“Junior Brother Hui, let Junior Brother Gao speak; it is I, Ji Lan, who has let you all down, ruining our ancestors’ foundation, and causing everyone to leave their homes and suffer in this Sen State.”

The words of the middle-aged cultivator made the sallow-faced cultivator show a look of shame:

“Sect Master, I’m not articulate; you should know I didn’t mean that…

Tianmen Cult has been destroyed, so we could just go back rather than hanging by a thread here in Sen State.”

“If we hadn’t spent so many Spirit Stones to open a new Sect here in Sen State, maybe we would have enough to support you reaching the Nascent Soul stage by now…”
