Chapter 389: The Desire Poison Had Senses Too

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

A man with a long face stepped down and landed on the hallway. Behind him was a soldierly young man in blue clothes with a long spear behind his back. He was the one who had ridiculed Jie Wanling just now.

“Looks like we did not come very late.” Another voice came from the void before five more people appeared in the hallway.

The palace maid continued to announce in a clear and loud voice, “Sect Master Zhou Bujian of the Moving Sword Immortal Sect and young sect master Zhou Hechen have arrived. Dao Master Yue Wuliang from the Heavenly Cloud Dao, his disciple Qin Boshan, and his elder daughter Yue He’er have arrived…”

The lady in the white clothes immediately went over to welcome them. “The Yaohua Snow Mountain welcomes Immortal Emperors Star Demon, Yuanyi, Void Sword and Great Sovereignty. You have all come from afar, so please follow me into the hall reserved for the guests.”

“Ha ha! Junior Sister Louxue’s cultivation experience has increased so much after all these years that I cannot seem to keep up with her.” The red-headed man who arrived last seemed to be glowing with enthusiasm as though he had an exceptional relationship with Immortal Emperor Melting Snow.

The lady in white said emotionlessly, “I cannot compare to Immortal Emperor Great Sovereignty.”

Her words revealed how estranged she was from him.

Jie Cheng, who stood beside Jie Wanling, took the initiative to walk up to the lady next to the red-headed man and bow. “Greetings, Senior Sister Yue He’er. I am Jie Cheng.”

The red-headed man was Dao Master Yue Wuliang from the Heavenly Cloud Dao, who had brought two people there, unlike the other sect masters. One of them was his disciple, Qin Boshan, and the other was his daughter, Yue He’er.

Qin Boshan, who was a little tan, looked like a simple and honest man. Yue Shu’er was wearing a beautiful light green dress and looked dignified. She had the great poise of a lady from a distinguished family. If Di Jiu had been there, he would not have believed that Yue He’er was a Desire Relegation Spirit Body that could spread Desire Poisons and had passed the Desire Poison to Jie Huang.

Yue He’er blushed. Although her voice was gentle, she sounded as though she did not know how to respond as she said, “Hello…”

Cheng Jie bowed once again and said, “I am bowing this time on behalf of my brother, to apologize for offending you. No matter what happens in the future, I, Jie Cheng, will repay what my brother owes you.”

As Jie Huang spoke in an earnest tone, his eyes were full of sincerity.

Immortal Emperor Great Sovereignty snorted.

Before Immortal Emperor Great Sovereignty could even say anything, the host of the gathering, Immortal Emperor Melting Snow, said hurriedly, “Please go in, everyone. I have prepared some top-notch immortal spirit tea. Let’s talk while we enjoy the tea.”

The group followed Immortal Emperor Melting Snow to the entrance of the hall reserved for guests. A lady in a light yellow dress who waited at the door bowed in welcome.

She was so beautiful… That was everyone’s first impression. The phrase “like gentle clouds covering the moon and swaying like the lingering winds of winter” from the famous poem described her perfectly. The lady in the yellow dress before them seemed as though she was going to blend into the surreal world at any time.

Even the Immortal Emperors felt that Mo Louxue’s disciple was going to overtake her as the most beautiful woman in the Immortal Land of Demonic Clothing. Her looks aside, the crowd could feel that the lady in the light dress was in the Immortal King Realm.

The lady in the yellow dress was Immortal Emperor Melting Snow’s personal disciple, Ai Qingbing, who was the reason Immortal Emperor Melting Snow had invited everyone over.

Xiling Pu was the first to walk over to her and greet her with enthusiasm. “Greetings, Elder Sister Qingbing. I’m Xiling Pu from the Buzhou Immortal Sect. Congratulations on attaining the Immortal King Realm. We are all putting in a lot of effort to be like you.”

“Thank you, Senior Brother Xiling. You are flattering me.” Ai Qingbing returned his salute at the right moment.

Xiling Pu’s father, Sect Master Xiling Yuanyi of the Buzhou Immortal Sect, slapped his head and said, “There is no point in trying to ingratiate yourself with Senior Sister Qingbing. You have to work harder to catch up with her.”

…

In the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City, Di Jiu stared at Jie Huang, who had been suspended in the air using the Dharma array, and asked calmly, “Are you ready?”

“Big Brother, I’m ready. Just burn me…” Jie Huang clenched his fists.

Di Jiu nodded. “I have taken down your ring, but you have to cooperate by removing the Spiritual Force imprint your father had put onto you now.”

Experts like Jie Wanling would definitely have protected Jie Huang by using a trace of Spiritual Force Imprint. If the imprint was not removed, Jie Wanling might think that Jie Huang was killed and teleport to the Great Desolate City to kill Di Jiu.

Jie Huang, who felt dejected, shook his head. “My father did not leave an imprint on me. He only gave me a jade card with an image…”

Di Jiu shook his head speechlessly. Jie Huang did not have much significance in his father’s eyes.

While Jie Huang was distracted, Di Jiu’s Dao fire slammed down and wrapped around Jie Huang.

“Ah…” Jie Huang shrieked. His cry almost tore down the entire tea house. His scream was blocked by the restriction Di Jiu had set up so nothing could be heard from the outside.

Di Jiu ignored Jie Huang’s cry completely. After all, he had been through such pain before. In fact, he had been through worse than what Jie Huang was experiencing. At least Di Jiu was in control of the Dao fire burning Jie Huang and the fire was not meant to kill him but to find the Desire Poison in him. When Di Jiu had been burned by the Heavenly Fire Spirit, he had been at risk of being killed.

The reason Di Jiu was determined to save Mo Yuxuan was because he would have been burned to death by the Heavenly Fire Spirit without her.

“Big Brother, let me off…” Jie Huang screamed amid the fire.

Di Jiu chided him, “Are you stupid? Circulate the body-tempering cultivation technique and the Forging Spiritual Art hurriedly. Circulate the Starry Sky Art later when I tell you to start.”

Jie Huang finally understood the situation and realized that Di Jiu would not let him off. Therefore, he could only start circulating the Colossal Kun Body-Tempering cultivation technique.

Di Jiu did not burn Jie Huang’s physical body and bones randomly. He separated Jie Huang’s Blood Essence at the same time and sent it into the gigantic array of the life-force.

He had not prepared the top-notch material to help Jie Huang’s physical body recover, as the Blood Essence he took from Jie Huang would be the best for Jie Huang’s recovery. However, he needed to find the Desire Poison first. Otherwise, the Blood Essence he had taken from Jie Huang would not be usable.

Jie Huang finally started the body-tempering process. Due to his high cultivation experience, his physical body improved drastically as Di Jiu tempered his body.

Crack! Jie Huang’s spiritual sea split open and he felt the power of the Forging Spiritual Art.

“Start circulating the Starry Sky Art!” Di Jiu’s voice was like a storm that slammed into the recesses of Jie Huang’s spiritual sea.

Jie Huang circulated the Starry Sky Art and his Immortal Essence started to transform…

Subsequently, he was surprised to see a vast galaxy in his meridian. Was this the galaxy meridian?

Jie Huang had always thought that he had great potential and he knew that his aptitude would increase the moment he felt that there was no hindrance in the galaxy meridian, no matter how much immortal spirit Qi he absorbed.

At the moment, that terrifying pain did not seem so intimidating anymore. Even the pain seemed more bearable.

Di Jiu was agitated because he felt something different in his Dao fire. It was not Jie Huang’s Blood Essence, spiritual sea or will. The thing that broke through Jie Huang’s galaxy meridian under the pressure of the Dao fire had spirituality.

Di Jiu opened up the galaxy meridian. Suddenly, that unknown thing broke into the galaxy meridian and started struggling when it was captured by the Dao fire.

It did not seem to have a form, while it also seemed to have one. It had to be the Desire Poison spread by that woman. The poison had spirituality, so a better name for it would have been Spirit of Desire Poison.

Di Jiu sensed a faintly discernible nomological aura. His theory that everything in the world was an order was right. Similarly, the Spirit of Desire Poison was also a type of law.

The Dao fire did not burn the Spirit of Desire Poison but embraced it instead. Di Jiu started to feel a new type of nomological aura.

…

At the same time, in the hall of the Yaohua Snow Mountain…

“Good tea, Immortal Emperor Melting Snow. Is this a new tea invented by you?” Immortal Emperor Bujian, the sect master of the Moving Sword Immortal Sect, looked at Immortal Emperor Melting Snow in surprise after having a sip of tea.

The tea allowed him to see a world that was peaceful but full of vitality. He sensed someone that was beyond the realm of cultivation in it. This was a place every cultivator pursued.

Jie Wanling, the palatial lord of the Star Demon Palace felt just as impressed. “This is my first time drinking such top-notch immortal spirit tea. Junior Sister Louxue must have broken through to another realm and surpassed us if she can formulate such tea.”

Immortal Emperor Melting Snow laughed. “I did not make this tea. This tea is called the Starry Sky Tea and it comes from the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City…”

For some unknown reason, Jie Huang came to Jie Wanling’s mind when the latter heard that the tea was from the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City. Wasn’t Huang’er opening a tea house in the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City? Did he buy the tea and resell it because it had appeared in the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City?
