Chapter 46 - 46 46 Trials Liusha Sea Area 2

46: Chapter 46 Trials, Liusha Sea Area (2) 46: Chapter 46 Trials, Liusha Sea Area (2) Based solely on talent, this guy is certainly qualified to be admitted into the Outer Sect.

“Although the Liusha Sea Area is under the jurisdiction of our Immortal Sect, most of the disciples who go in for training and can survive to come out belong to Aristocratic Clan Sects.

I just hope that Jiang Tang can make it out alive,” the disciple sighed, a look of concern emerging in his eyes.

Another disciple also showed a look of concern.

If he could survive and come out, there would definitely be a place for Jiang Tang among the Outer Sect disciples.

However, the Jiang Tang being talked about behind the scenes had no time to pay attention to these matters.

Because he was currently troubled by this mission.

“Find the oasis soil in the Liusha Sea Area, select the most fertile land rich in spiritual energy, and bring back ten stones to the sect for cultivation.”

Although the Liusha Sea Area is full of sand, finding an oasis with the aid of his wood spiritual power wasn’t difficult.

However…

to distinguish the best soil, he had to examine each area individually, and considering the vastness of the Liusha Sea Area, he wondered how much time it would take.

Jiang Tang felt a bit of a headache.

But thinking of Elder Liuyue’s eyes, filled with great expectations, he sighed and silently urged his wood spiritual power, activating the Wind-racing Step as he sprinted towards the nearest oasis.

During this time, Jiang Tang suddenly realized that his Wind-racing Step had advanced a level.

It had progressed from the Entry Realm to the Intermediate Realm!

Jiang Tang stopped, took a Rejuvenation Pill, mustered all his strength, and used the Wind-racing Step to rush towards the oasis ahead.

With this effort, he went from taking twenty steps in a single breath to fifty.

Wow, this speed was unmatched!

Although to those top experts who could traverse realms in the blink of an eye, this speed might be as slow as a snail, Jiang Tang was content.

It was still much better than his ordinary human constitution when he first arrived.

If that old man came after him again, Jiang Tang, by exerting all his strength and throwing a few talismans, might just manage to escape by a narrow margin.

Thinking of talismans, Jiang Tang abruptly stopped, scattered poison powder around him, then sat cross-legged in meditation, channeling his divine sense into the Spirit Field Space to take a look.

The Spirit Field where the talismans were planted had fully matured, and this time there were even several second-grade talismans.

Wow!

Jiang Tang was elated as he collected the talismans and, noticing that the first mu of Spirit Grass had been sown with seedlings by Eryao, he gave a thumbs up in that direction.

“Father, there is demonic energy approaching from all sides; be careful, Father,” Eryao set down the hoe and suddenly spoke.

Demonic energy?

Jiang Tang was stunned and quickly exited the space, only to discover that at some unknown time, more than a dozen large scorpions had surrounded him, poised to attack with their stingers raised.

Next to those scorpions, several Clan Descendants looked utterly terrified.

“Senior Brother, isn’t it too unkind of you to lead them right to this gentleman?” A red-clothed girl who arrived a bit late glared in fury at the leading young master when she saw Jiang Tang surrounded by scorpions.

“He has poison powder with him; the scorpions won’t get to him.

Don’t worry, Junior Sister,” the leading young master waved his hand carelessly with a laugh, then lifted his chin and looked down on Jiang Tang contemptuously, “Brat, scatter more of your poison powder, and the scorpions won’t attack you.”

Jiang Tang: “…”

Goodness, using him like a tool, are they?

It’s clear that those scorpions actually like the poison powder; didn’t you see how they’re gobbling it down?

They want to sacrifice him to the heavens and then take advantage of the situation to kill the scorpions while they are preoccupied with the poison powder, it seems.

Jiang Tang raised an eyebrow and suddenly slapped his palm against the ground.

Upon this palm strike, a red flame burst forth, instantly burning the scorpions to ashes.

The group stared, dumbfounded, especially the leader among them.

Especially when they saw the flame released by Jiang Tang’s hand, he blurted out in disbelief, “Is that an exotic flame?!”

“Exotic flame?!”

“Yes, an exotic flame, so what?” Jiang Tang got up and looked over indifferently.

“Aren’t exotic flames only used for refining pills?” someone couldn’t help but mutter.

“Who said that?

You’ve never used it to fight people or demons,” Jiang Tang laughed, turning to leave.

“Hey, kid, what’s your name?” The leader with the changed face suddenly asked with a smile.

“I am Jiang Tang,” Jiang Tang turned his head.

“I am Huang Chen.

It was rude of me just now; I hope Jiang doesn’t take it to heart,” Huang Chen bowed with cupped hands, grinning, “May I ask where Jiang is headed?”

“To the oasis up ahead.” Jiang Tang raised an eyebrow.

What was he scheming?

He wouldn’t be thinking of using him as a tool again, right?

As it happened, that was exactly what Huang Chen intended.

“What a coincidence, I and several junior brothers and sisters are also headed to the oasis up ahead to make some adjustments.

Would Jiang be willing to travel with us?” The smile on Huang Chen’s face grew even more radiant.

Only the young girl noticed the fleeting strangeness in Huang Chen’s eyes.

She shook her head subtly at Jiang Tang, signifying that he should not agree to Huang Chen’s proposal.

Of course, Jiang Tang wouldn’t be foolish.

He promptly refused and turned to leave.

Unexpectedly, a longsword suddenly tore through the air, aggressively blocking Jiang Tang’s way.

Jiang Tang’s eyes turned cold as he quickly turned around to meet the mocking gaze of a man.

“What are you pretending for?

Our senior brother invites you to join us, that is a sign of respect.

Hurry up and come with us,” the man said arrogantly, as if he was bestowing a favor upon Jiang Tang.

Remaining calm, Jiang Tang brandished his longsword and swung it fiercely to the side.

In an instant, a sword mark accompanied by the flames of the Xuanming Spiritual Fire took shape.

The blistering flames turned the man’s face pale as he instinctively shrank back towards Huang Chen.

“Thank you very much,” Jiang Tang said with a slight smile, before activating his Wind-racing Step to swiftly exit the scene.

Huang Chen’s expression darkened, cooling down gradually.

Jiang Tang, your Exotic Flame will be mine.

At this moment, Jiang Tang was completely unaware that showing his Exotic Flame had put him in Huang Chen’s crosshairs.

“Let’s go to the oasis to get some proper rest,” Huang Chen said nonchalantly, concealing his emotions and heading in the direction Jiang Tang had left.

“Senior brother, weren’t we going to hunt Demonic Beasts?” The girl in red frowned immediately.

“No rush, let’s rest for a moment first.”

The girl in red frowned again.

Why had their master appointed this man as their senior brother, to lead them on this experience?

With such character, what virtues and abilities did he have to shoulder this responsibility?

After running for about an hour, Jiang Tang finally saw the tall green trees ahead.

Finally there!

Jiang Tang came to a halt, catching his breath before taking out a gourd and drinking deeply from it.

Of course, he hadn’t forgotten the purpose of his journey.

Putting away the gourd, Jiang Tang began to search for fertile soil.

After a short while, he stopped beside a pond.

The quality of the soil here was more than a notch better than before.

This would do.

Jiang Tang formed a hand seal, activating a spell he had learned from an ancient text, and packed ten stones’ worth of soil into the Qiankun Bag before stowing it in the Storage Ring.

Just as he finished, a carefree voice suddenly came through —

“Hey, we meet again, Jiang.”
