Chapter 859 – The Art of Eating the Moon
Chapter 859 – The Art of Eating the Moon
After killing the last Void Refining Stage cultivator, Xu Chuniang smoothly drew out his divine soul and searched it.
She was quite interested in that vortex technique, if there was enough demonic energy, it could easily swallow dozens or hundreds of people.
Even in the future when his cultivation level was high, it wasn’t impossible to kill a million divisions with a single move!
However, the result of the soul search showed that this technique was the Moon Devouring Demon Clan’s natural aptitude, and no one else could learn it at all.
Just about to smoothly pinch the residual soul of this Moon Devouring Demon Race to death, the seemingly demented residual soul, suddenly struggled violently.
“Don’t kill me! If you want to learn the Art of Moon Devouring, I can teach you!”
Xu Chuniang surveyed the remnant soul in her hands with interest, “After experiencing a soul search, you actually managed to remain sane?”
The remnant soul was also out of options, originally thinking of playing dumb to see if it could save its life, after all, the value of a living soul was nearly double that of a dead one.
After she let her guard down, she would wait for an opportunity to strike later.
How do you know the other side simply do not give him this opportunity, in order to self-preservation, he had to tell the secret.
“The Moon Devouring Demon Clan is a very ancient demon clan in the demon world, with a long history of origin, when we are searched for our souls, we can use a secret method to control our memories and exhibit them to the person who searches our souls.”
Xu Chuniang raised an eyebrow unexpectedly, “So, the ones I saw during the soul search just now, were the ones you took the initiative to show me?”
“Yes.”
Afraid of angering her, the remnant soul hastily added.
“Those memories are all true, but I’ve concealed some of them, and it’s not without a solution if you want to learn the Art of Moon Devouring.”
“Tell me.”
“Travel to the Moon Devouring Demon Clan’s ancestral land.”
The remnant soul surveyed her face, “The only way for other demon clans to learn the art of Moon Devouring is to be recognized by the Ancestral God at the ancestral land of my clan.”
“That sounds like a lot of trouble.”
Xu Chuniang swept a glance at him, her tone leisurely, “How would I know if you’re asking me to go to the Moon Devouring Demon Clan’s ancestral land with the idea of killing me?”
Thinking about it, one could tell how difficult it would be for her, an outsider, to be in the Moon Devouring Demon Clan’s ancestral land and gain the approval of its Ancestral God.
The remnant soul was startled and tried to act as if nothing had happened.
“My little life is now pinched in your hands, whether I live or die is just a matter of words, how can you let me go if you die?
I’ll take you to the Moon Devouring Demon Clan’s ancestral land and help you obtain the Ancestral God’s approval, how about you spare my life?”
Xu Chuniang glanced at him with a wry smile, “Would it be out of order to bring an outsider into the ancestral land?”
The remnant soul frankly admitted, “It’s a bit unruly, but I want to stay alive and couldn’t care less.”
“Alright, if you don’t play any tricks and honestly bring me to your Demon Clan’s ancestral land, I will spare your life.”
The remnant soul was overjoyed, and was about to ask when he was going to leave, but he was sent into a cramped space, with nothing but endless darkness around him.
His heart panicked, “Aren’t you traveling to my clan’s ancestral land, what are you doing?”
Xu Chuniang glanced at the porcelain vase in her hand, “The great war is imminent, it’s not too late to go after leveling Dark Night City.”
After saying that, she casually threw the porcelain vase into the mustard space.
At those words, the remnant soul had mixed feelings.
The happy one was that she would most likely die in the middle of the battle, and the sad one was that if the other party were to really die, after he was captured as a trophy, there was no telling who’s hands he would stray into.
He tried to push the mouth of the bottle, but unfortunately, several layers of seals were added to the mouth of the bottle, so it was impossible to escape.
The remnant soul extinguished his mind and honestly waited for the day when he would see the light of day again.
Xu Chuniang didn’t care what the remnant soul thought, she swept a glance at the snake cave below.
The battle on the ground had ended at some point, and the exhausted corpses were several feet high.
Some of the surviving magical beasts were gathered sporadically outside the Snake Cave, gnawing on the corpses.
This ground full of mutilated corpses saved her the trouble of collecting blood food.
Xu Chuniang nonchalantly collected ninety percent of the corpses, causing those surviving magical beasts to growl, but slinking away before they could pounce and bite. After shaking off the magical beasts behind her, she flew in the direction of where the Phoenix Feather Crow was for a while longer, finally joining up with it two hours later.
When searching her soul, she finally knew the origin and name of the black strange bird, if this thing was brought back to the Magic City, she was afraid that there would be quite a few people who would miss it.
And besides the dragonscale female cultivator, there was also a fishtailed male cultivator who had also escaped.
If he were to publicize the news that he had obtained the Phoenix Feather Crow, there might be many people looking for him.
After these thoughts flashed through Xu Chuniang’s mind, they were put behind her.
The Phoenix Feather Crow was hidden amongst the cracks in the rock wall, and when it saw her coming, it first rubbed her arm affectionately, then with a wave of its wings, it pointed to a cave in the distance.
“Are you saying that the female cultivator with dragon scales on her face is hiding in that cave?”
The Phoenix Feather Crow nodded its little head affirmatively, it had been far behind her.
The other party was so concerned with escaping that they didn’t even know that there was a small tail following behind them.
In the past two hours, it hadn’t seen her show her face either.
Xu Chuniang thought for a moment and signaled the Phoenix Feather Crow to blast open the cave door.
The Phoenix Feather Crow drummed its wings, and with a heavy flap of its two wings, it summoned a hurricane that slapped against the cave.
“Bang!”
After a loud bang, the cave door opened, but the cave was empty.
The only thing that was there was a dark tunnel that curved around and led to nowhere.
Xu Chuniang narrowed her eyes dangerously and swept a glance at Phoenix Fei Crow, “Where are the people?”
Phoenix Fei Crow was dumbfounded, clearly not expecting at all that the other party’s entry into the cave was just a cover.
It realized that it had made a mistake and lowered its head at a loss for words.
“Tracking failure, fasting for five days.”
Xu Chuniang jumped onto the Phoenix Feather Crow, “Let’s go, leave the Demon Abyss first.”
There wasn’t much magic qi left in her body, and if she wanted to replenish her magic qi in the Demon Abyss, the only way to replenish it was with medium-grade magic crystals.
Magic crystals were precious, and she was unwilling to waste them here.
Phoenix Feather Crow barely managed to raise her spirits and flew towards the outside of the Demon Abyss.
After several bitter battles, it had quite a few injuries on its body, and even its pair of beautiful feathers had been scratched out with quite a few bloody holes.
Without moving, Xu Chuniang took out a two-headed vulture corpse and threw it towards the front.
The Phoenix Feather Crow’s movements were faster than its reactions, and with a single swipe of its claws, it scooped up the two-headed vulture corpse in its claws.
Subconsciously sending the blood food into his mouth, he remembered something and looked back at Xu Chuniang, who was sitting on her back.
“The trophies of recuperating from wounds are not among the forbidden foods.”
Phoenix Feather Crow sighed in relief and was in a much better mood, and in three or two swipes, he ate the not-so-small two-headed vulture into his belly.
Just when he felt that it was not enough, another black shadow flashed by his side, it was another double-headed vulture.
It silently stretched its claws and continued to eat.
Until its stomach was full and no new two-headed vulture appeared, the injuries on its body finally began to improve.
New feathers also grew on the torn feathers.
The Phoenix Feather Crow lifted its wings and flew, much faster than before.
With the Phoenix Feather Crow walking on his behalf, it only took a small half day to smoothly leave the Demon Abyss.
