Seeking Immortality In The World Of Cultivation - Chapter 780

Chapter 780: Chapter 592: Evil Wind Scraping Bones_1

Such an identity, to capture some demonic beasts, isn’t it a very normal thing?

And among the demonic beasts secretly captured by Master White Crane, a large portion of them were thrown into that barrier over the past few years.

When one after another Qi Refining stage demonic beast.

Or subjugated Foundation Establishment stage demonic beasts were thrown into it.

The situation within that barrier was naturally once again observed by Master White Crane and Flying Crane Master.

In these years.

The two relied on the demonic beasts captured by Master White Crane to continuously test the effects of the barrier here, and worked incessantly to weaken it.

With the passage of time, the two also discovered some findings.

After several years.

They termed the situation where any living creature entering it would instantly be riddled with wounds as the “evil wind.”

Under the blow of the evil wind, living creatures would turn to dust in the blink of an eye.

Besides, the two discovered that when they threw living creatures like demonic beasts into the barrier.

It could indeed reduce some of the evil wind’s power within the barrier.

Moreover, the higher the cultivation of the living creature, the more the evil wind’s power in the barrier was reduced.

But.

Ordinary demonic beasts, even those with huge bodies, had difficulty significantly reducing the power of the evil wind within the barrier after entering it.

This barrier did not seem to be set up for demonic beasts.

Instead, it was on a whim that Master White Crane went out and captured an Evil Cultivator at the Qi Refining stage to throw into the barrier.

The power of the evil wind inside the barrier was also reduced somewhat as a result.

Not by a large degree.

But it was on par with what an ordinary Foundation Establishment demonic beast could reduce.

Which means.

A Qi Refining stage cultivator entering it could reduce the power of the evil wind comparably to a Foundation Establishment demonic beast.

After the two made such a discovery.

Their mentality naturally underwent a slight, curious change.

Originally.

Whether it was Master White Crane or Flying Crane Master, they both planned to keep the secret of this place tightly guarded.

After all, they had already lost two good friends in this very place.

And they had gained numerous benefits from the remnants of these two friends.

Subsequently, Master White Crane hunted demonic beasts all over the place and continuously brought his captured beasts here to weaken the evil wind.

Flying Crane Master, on the other hand, stayed here all year round to prevent others from discovering this place.

Under such a division of labor and cooperation.

Their covetousness for this treasure land was well known to all.

This treasure land.

Was solely theirs and theirs alone.

They would never allow others to meddle with it.

However, when the two discovered that the bodies of cultivators could quickly weaken the barrier’s power,

At first, they did not take drastic action against others.

They only had Master White Crane go around capturing Evil Cultivators from the surrounding areas and threw them into the barrier to weaken the evil wind.

But as time went on, when they could no longer capture any Evil Cultivators from the vicinity,

Even traveling to distant places yielded no Evil Cultivators,

Master White Crane saw that the power of the evil wind in the barrier still made it quite difficult for Foundation Establishment cultivators to pass through perfectly.

He naturally turned his gaze toward the ordinary cultivators in the vicinity.

For a while.

The Qi Refining loose cultivators in the area had a string of bad luck.

However.

When the Qi Refining loose cultivators in the area became terror-stricken and started to seal themselves indoors to avoid unwarranted calamities,

And when Foundation Establishment True Persons from the surrounding Immortal Cities began to investigate the ins and outs of the situation,

Master White Crane, not wanting to expose his intentions, ultimately had to stop his actions.

He no longer targeted the Qi Refining loose cultivators, who were already living miserably.

However.

By the time Master White Crane had done everything,

He found that the evil wind’s power inside the barrier still made it quite difficult for Foundation Establishment cultivators to pass through perfectly.

His gaze unavoidably turned to more distant locales.

In a more remote area,

There was a huge Immortal State Mansion.

The existence of Foundation Establishment True Persons within the Immortal State Mansion ignited a flicker of hope in the eyes of Master White Crane.

Since the nearby Evil Cultivators had already been captured to near extinction,

And since capturing the nearby loose cultivators had raised the suspicions of the surrounding Immortal Cities,

Then it was time to go to Luo Feng Province Mansion.

Given his good reputation accumulated over the years in Luo Feng Province Mansion, it shouldn’t be difficult to deceive a few Foundation Establishment True Persons to come here.

If he could deceive several Foundation Establishment True Persons all at once,

Perhaps, just one time would be enough to completely eliminate the evil wind within the barrier.

Of course, it’s one thing to have this idea in mind,

But actually doing it is another matter entirely.

After consulting with Flying Crane Master, Master White Crane finally decided not to bring too many people at one time.

Otherwise, if the evil wind in the barrier were broken midway, they might have to share the treasures with the cultivators they had deceived.

That would be a true case of loss outweighing the gain.

To prevent this from happening,

They originally planned to invite one cultivator each.

Master White Crane chose He Song.

While Flying Crane Master chose another Foundation Establishment cultivator.

Regrettably,

He Song was not interested in the treasure land mentioned by Master White Crane, and easily dismissed it.

Although Master White Crane subsequently changed his targets, he was continuously thwarted several times.

Out of necessity, they could only set out with three people in the end, heading to the treasure land for another visit.
