Daily Divination From Market Rogue Cultivator To Immortal Venerable - Chapter 151

Chapter 151 Phantom Poison

“Pei Yingyao…”

Murong Kang’s face was gloomy, and he murmured in a low voice.

If it weren’t for her help, how could Li Changan defeat the puppet?

From the beginning to the end.

Murong Kang didn’t take Li Changan seriously.

What really made him afraid was Pei Yingyao, a sword cultivator in the middle stage of foundation building.

The combat power of sword cultivators is already quite famous, and they are often better at killing than cultivators of the same level.

And Pei Yingyao’s strength is even more terrifying than that of sword cultivators of the same level!

Murong Kang asked himself.

If he fought Pei Yingyao head-on, he might not be able to survive ten moves!

“However, Pei Yingyao is devoted to swordsmanship, and it is impossible for her to protect Li Changan all the time. She couldn’t even protect her own disciples back then.”

Murong Kang pondered.

The entire Huanghe Mountain lineage knew that one of Pei Yingyao’s disciples was killed by a robber cultivator.

And Li Changan was not her disciple. At most, he had a few treasures given by her for self-defense.

“The foundation-building method Pei Yingyao bestowed upon Li Chang’an should only be used a few times.”

Murong Kang gradually had a new idea.

At this moment,

Huang Feng, struggling to rise from his sickbed, inquired with concern.

“Master, is something wrong? Is there anything I can help with?”

“It’s okay, Feng’er, take care of your injuries!”

Murong Kang put away his gloomy expression, turned around, and offered soothing words.

He concealed nothing.

He told Huang Feng and Huang Liang directly that the operation had failed.

They hadn’t killed Li Chang’an.

Instead, they had lost a valuable puppet and a treasure that could break the formation.

It was a devastating loss.   Huang Feng’s face paled, and he couldn’t help but blame himself.   ”Master, it’s all my fault. If I hadn’t provoked Li Chang’an, you wouldn’t have lost so many treasures.” “Don’t overthink it. This has nothing to do with Li Chang’an. It

was   just a battle between me and Senior Sister Pei.”   With that, Murong Kang glanced toward the mountainside.   His eyes held both fear and murderous intent, though he dared not show it.   A moment later,   he left Huang Feng’s house and returned to his own quarters.   Inside, he sat cross-legged, forming hand seals, and once again cast the complex spell.   A blood-red figure immediately emerged from   his palms , resembling Huang Feng.   This time, it was brighter than before.   ”Yes, the Blood-Renewing Pill is indeed effective!”   Murong Kang thought, and the figure in his hand instantly transformed,   transforming into Huang Feng’s senior brother, Huang Liang.   This figure’s blood-red hue was even more dazzling, casting a bloody hue over the entire room.   ”Huang Liang has reached the ninth level of Qi Refining, and his devouring ability is now extremely effective. However… should I help him with his Foundation Establishment? Devouring a Foundation Establishment cultivator would benefit me more, but Foundation Establishment resources are difficult to come by.”   Murong Kang pondered for a long time, his eyes gleaming with blood, his features subtly terrifying,   like a demon choosing its prey.   …   Meanwhile,   in the inner city, in the courtyard.   Li Changan was counting his gains.   ”Unfortunately, Xiao Hei’s spell was too powerful, causing many puppet materials to be shattered, greatly reducing their value.”   The courtyard was littered with scattered puppet materials and parts.   Li Changan felt a pang of pain as he saw this.   He walked over to a piece of material, raised his hand, and picked it up to examine it carefully.   ”Black silk wood, a second-grade, low-grade spiritual material. If it were intact, a small piece like this would sell for 300 spirit stones. Unfortunately, Xiao Hei cracked it.”   He shook his head and continued counting other materials.   ”Blue vein stone, a first-grade, high-grade material, was directly smashed to pieces.”   ”And this purple cloud wood…”   About half an hour later,   Li Changan finished the inventory.

His current puppetry skills had already reached the peak of the first level.

While not quite at the second level, he could already roughly determine the puppet’s specific capabilities from these puppet materials.

“This should be a phantom puppet, capable of creating multiple phantom forms during its movements, confusing the enemy’s judgment,”

Li Chang’an thought, looking at the dark green jade in his hand.

This jade was called the Phantom Poison Jade, a low-

grade second-level treasure.

He had disassembled it from the core components of a puppet.

This poison treasure was extremely rare. If used as a component in a formation, it could create an illusion array.

If used to create a puppet, it could create a special puppet like the phantom puppet.

“This Phantom Poison Jade is quite valuable…”

Li Chang’an weighed it, noting its heft.

This phantom puppet’s ability to create phantom forms must be quite impressive, but it was destroyed before it could even use them.

This showed that the enemy didn’t take Li Chang’an seriously.

If Li Chang’an had acted on his own,

he would have immediately activated his phantom form, using it to probe for any possible dangers within the courtyard.

“Such contempt for me proves he’s truly a Foundation Establishment cultivator, completely disdainful of Qi Refining cultivators.”

Li Chang’an smiled.

He was thankful to be looked down upon, saving himself a lot of trouble.

Just as he was thinking,

something suddenly moved in his sleeve.

“Huh?”

Li Chang’an’s mind stirred, and he glanced at his sleeve.

A plump insect crawled out.

Its rainbow-colored body exuded a sense of longing. It was the Myriad Poison Gu that Li Chang’an had found in Mei Si Niang’s spirit beast bag.

“Want to eat it?”

Li Chang’an shook the Phantom Poison Jade in his hand.

The Myriad Poison Gu again expressed longing, a response.

Its rank wasn’t high, currently only at the late first stage, not even reaching its peak.

This was because there were so few poison treasures in the area of Yellow Crane Immortal City, and almost all of them had been taken by cultivators from the Five Poisons Wanderer lineage.

Furthermore, Li Chang’an had been preoccupied with his own advancement and that of his two spirit beasts.

He hadn’t given much thought to the Myriad Poison Gu.

“Eat it if you want.”

He smiled and handed over the Phantom Poison Jade.

The Myriad Poison Gu expressed joy, its plump body immediately hugging the entire Phantom Poison Jade before slowly retreating into Li Changan’s sleeve.

With this poisonous Gu,

Li Changan was immune to most first-level poisons.

“After absorbing this Phantom Poison Jade, it should be able to reach the peak of the first level.”

Li Changan pondered.

He didn’t plan to help the Myriad Poison Gu collect advanced artifacts for the time being, simply because poison treasures were difficult to obtain. He would just let

things take their course.

For now, he would focus on himself and his two spirit beasts.

After clearing the yard,

Li Changan returned to the house and retrieved the chessboard-shaped array-breaking artifact.

“Forbidden Spirit Chessboard.”

He had spent considerable effort refining it.

This chessboard was a second-level mid-grade spiritual artifact, of extremely high quality, almost reaching the highest grade.

Li Changan’s own strength was simply not enough to refine it, so he ultimately relied on the power of the Black Water Turtle.

In the center of the front of the chessboard was a black piece.

A white piece was embedded in the center of the reverse side.

“Black pieces block formations, white pieces block people!”

After refining it, Li Changan immediately understood its function.

Not long ago,

the Thunder Cloud Illusion Array ceased functioning because of the black piece’s influence.
