A Druid Also Can Cultivate

Chapter 684: Chapter 524: Blazing Sun

Just as the Profound Armor Old Turtle finished speaking, it vanished from Qi Ping’s sight, leaving behind only a pile of chilling white bones.

Qi Ping had yet to recover from the shock of the transaction price being raised by twenty percent.

“A gift?”

Qi Ping felt a stir in his heart, unsure what kind of scheme the Profound Armor Old Turtle was plotting.

From the attitude of the Profound Armor Old Turtle earlier, compared to this gift, the raised transaction price seemed insignificant.

However, Qi Ping knew very well how terrifyingly profitable that twenty percent increase in the transaction price would be.

The Profound Armor Old Turtle must be keenly aware of this too.

But what on earth could be so valuable that even the terrifying profits from a twenty percent increase seem inconsequential?

What Qi Ping found most puzzling was, why did the Profound Armor Old Turtle do this?

“Just because my words earlier helped it break the shackles and comprehend the Great Dao?”

Although it is said there’s no way to repay the grace of achieving the Dao, giving a gift to settle this cause and effect seems quite reasonable.

But from Qi Ping’s perspective, the first gift was already generous enough.

This even more generous second gift indeed made him suspicious of other motives.

Having become accustomed to the deceit and intrigue of the Immortal Cultivation Realm, it’s hard for him to believe this is merely a simple gift.

Yet, Qi Ping had to admit, he was tempted!

At his current level and position, the Star Sea World basically has no resources left that could help him break through further; in ordinary terms, it’s like he’s in a state of hunger.

Considering the strength and status of the Profound Armor Old Turtle, in conjunction with the huge benefits from the first gift, this second gift is likely to be an unimaginable resource.

It should be known that from the first meeting with the Profound Armor Old Turtle, it presented him with a rare and precious Tier Eight Resentful Tea!

“Anyway, I am just a Spirit Body now, what is there to fear? Plus, the transaction between the two realms is already finalized; no matter what, the other party won’t act to cause a loss of benefit between the two realms…”

Thinking of this, Qi Ping temporarily put aside his persecutory thoughts, though his main body was still ready to handle any potential crisis.

“But who is this little Gold Spirit?”

The Profound Armor Old Turtle left only a name, and Qi Ping knew nothing more.

It didn’t seem appropriate to wander aimlessly, so Qi Ping sat directly on the chilling white bones, carefully comprehending the laws and Spiritual Qi of the Forest Sea Demon Realm…

Especially when it came to locating Yaya and the others, it was best to be more stable.

From the prior conversation with the Profound Armor Old Turtle, it seemed that the latter was fully aware of when he sent Yaya, the little spirit fox, the little flower demon, the three-colored deer, and the little green snake into the Forest Sea Demon Realm, yet did not interfere.

So many years had passed, Qi Ping was unsure of their current situation. To prevent them from being discovered as Human Race Cultivators’ Pet Beasts, Qi Ping suppressed all contract imprints besides life preservation, so he had no knowledge of his animal companions’ status over the years.

The years flowed by, and three months passed quickly.

Fortunately, for someone at the Integration Stage, such time was negligible, and Qi Ping gradually digested the power brought by the Resentment Tea, aided by the denser Spiritual Qi and stronger laws in the Forest Sea Demon Realm.

Now, as long as Qi Ping stimulates his thoughts, a terrifying super battlefield will form in his mind, transforming into his attack and defense weapon…

Even if the only gain from this venture was the Tier Eight grievance now, it would already be astonishing for Qi Ping.

At this moment, Qi Ping deeply recognized the vast difference between the Star Sea World and other powerful worlds.

The path for the Star Sea World to truly establish itself in this universe remains long and challenging.

Today, Qi Ping’s wait did not continue.

This was because he felt, with impeccable clarity, that among the two blazing suns above his head, the light of one of them suddenly grew stronger….

Most terrifyingly, an immensely vast aura and overwhelming vital life force were awakening within it…

“Is it actually a living being?”

Originally, Qi Ping thought the two suns were a feature of the Forest Sea Demon Realm.

But he never expected that one of these blazing suns was actually a living creature!

What kind of existence could transform into a blazing sun?

At this moment, a gigantic pair of golden wings suddenly unfolded from the sides of the blazing sun in Qi Ping’s perception, and the aura of a Tier Eight Divine Beast, a Mahayana Stage Divine Beast, burgeoned forth!

It was none other than a Golden Crow!

Moreover, a Golden Crow with extremely potent bloodline power!

“No way…”

A strange thought suddenly occurred to Qi Ping:

Could the little Gold Spirit mentioned by the Profound Armor Old Turtle be this Mahayana Stage Golden Crow that transformed into the blazing sun…

A Mahayana Stage Golden Crow Divine Beast, no matter in which world, was sure to be an overwhelmingly terrifying existence, bearing no easy connection with a ‘little’ title.

Yet, the two words Gold Spirit seem to relate to the Golden Crow no matter how you look at it.

In the next moment, Qi Ping no longer had the slightest doubt.

Because the Golden Crow, which had transformed into a blazing sun, was descending towards him with the speed of a falling sun.

“What on earth is the strength and status of the Profound Armor Old Turtle?” Qi Ping’s mind was suddenly filled with this question.

Judging by the current situation, the status and power of the Profound Armor Old Turtle probably far exceeded his previous assumptions.

As the burning sensation intensified, the Golden Crow was getting closer and closer to Qi Ping.

By the time Qi Ping could make out the appearance of the Golden Crow, he had already felt a burning pain from the depths of his soul, causing his entire Spirit Body to transform into a wooden patterned battle garment with self-repair capabilities, barely ensuring the Spirit Body wouldn’t dissolve.

Fortunately, at the last moment when Qi Ping was about to lose his stand, this immense pressure suddenly dissipated.

Following this, a muscular bald man heavily crashed in front of Qi Ping, countless white bones turning to dust at that moment.

The endless Fire Attribute Spiritual Qi surrounded this bald man as if paying homage to an emperor.

“Do all the beings in the Forest Sea Demon Realm like using this limit-testing trick?” Qi Ping thought helplessly.

However, given the circumstances, he didn’t think much of it, since the Forest Sea Demon Realm hadn’t intentionally harmed him.

Moreover, if he were in their shoes, and the other party wanted to conduct business on equal footing, some tests would not be unreasonable.

Yet, Qi Ping didn’t expect that in the short time he spent in the Forest Sea Demon Realm, he would consecutively encounter terrifying existences of this level.

Simultaneously, Qi Ping couldn’t help but grow more curious about what the second gift from the Profound Armor Old Turtle would be, needing a Mahayana Stage existence to specifically awaken from seclusion…

Meanwhile, the Golden Crow, which had transformed into the blazing sun, was also filled with shock because it sensed Resentment Tea’s aura on Qi Ping!

“Integration Stage? Tier Eight Resentment Tea? Does this combination make sense?”
