Cultivation Starting from Full Talent

Chapter 114: Chapter 112 Senior Sister, Look What This Is

“Oh?”

Amidst the ghost fog, a green-clothed elder with a sly expression slowly walked out, holding a flag in his hand. His gaze settled on the bodies scattered around, a mix of disbelief and a sneer spread across his face,

“Fellow Daoist He, so formidable, to have killed so many of my disciples and grand-disciples?”

Autumn leaves drifted through the woods.

“Shush…”

A figure slowly emerged—it was Ning Daoran, after having changed his appearance.

“Perfect Qi Refining?”

The green-clothed elder, who possessed the cultivation of Early-stage Foundation Establishment, said with icy eyes, “If it were merely Perfect Qi Refining, it would have been impossible to instantly kill so many Late-stage Qi Refining cultivators. Fellow Daoist must have practiced some technique to conceal your breath, right?”

With that said, the elder’s eyes gleamed ferociously, and he sneered, “But no matter whether you’ve hidden your cultivation or not, this Hundred Ghosts Banner will be your final resting place!”

He suddenly shook the flag, and immediately, a chorus of ghostly wails and howls erupted.

“Hundred Ghosts Banner?”

Ning Daoran’s eyes turned cold, “Since it is so, let Fellow Daoist witness my Ten Thousand Ghosts Banner!”

“Whoosh!”

He raised his right hand, unleashing the Green Ghost Flag, and instantly, a green figure darted out, transforming into the Green-clothed Lady who possessed the strength of Golden Core Early Stage!

“What? You…”

The green-clothed elder was startled. In the next moment, all the fierce ghosts summoned from the Hundred Ghosts Banner were trembling, not daring to strike against the Green-clothed Evil Ghost, as if subdued by some bloodline suppression!

“Roar—”

With a roar, the Green-clothed Lady’s enormous, flowing green dress swept across, grinding a group of fierce ghosts into nothingness.

After the thick green smoke had cleared, the green-clothed elder was left only as a gore-drenched skeleton, his mouth still agape, scarcely believing that he, a prestigious Ghost Cultivator of Foundation Establishment, had been annihilated in an instant.

In the sky, the Green-clothed Evil Ghost lifted her graceful neck, her cherry lips parting slightly.

Immediately, the soul of the green-clothed elder was sucked into her mouth, then directly absorbed as part of her ghostly strength.

“Little Qing, you can devour living souls?”

Ning Daoran frowned deeply, having not anticipated that Little Qing within the Green Ghost Flag had such an ability.

“Master…”

The Green-clothed Lady revealed a pitiful appearance, yet her gaze turned toward the corpses of the Demon Disciples not far away.

“You…”

Ning Daoran pondered for a moment, “Devouring these living souls can enhance your strength?”

“Mm.”

The Green-clothed Lady nodded gently, her eyes conveying a plea for Ning Daoran’s approval.

“These people are all followers of the Demon Path; go ahead, but from now on, every act of consuming a living soul must receive my consent.”

“Yes, Master!”

The Green-clothed Evil Ghost swept through, devouring the souls of a group of Demon Cultivators completely.

In an instant, the green dress she wore grew much more distinct, and even her figure filled out significantly.

Just as she admitted, devouring living souls indeed enhanced her cultivation.

‘Goddamn…’

Ning Daoran was somewhat speechless; so Little Qing could continue to cultivate within the Green Ghost Flag, then what was the difference between his actions and those of the Demon Path? Wasn’t this just nurturing a ghost?

‘Well…’

He consoled himself in a flash, “Do good deeds without asking about the future; if necessary, I could also belong to the Demon Path…”

“Old Lu, let’s go!”

Suddenly, Ning Daoran sensed movement in the east and said solemnly, “Let’s check it out! Little Qing, come back!”

At his command, the Green-clothed Lady transformed into a green phantom and returned into the Green Ghost Flag.

Big Stupid Deer raced along the ground, speeding with Ning Daoran toward a dense forest in the distance.

…

In the forest, bodies of female cultivators lay strewn everywhere, disrupted and disorganized.

Judging by their attire, they were from the Star Moon Pavilion.

The last time he had seen members of the Star Moon Pavilion was in the Cangnan Secret Realm twenty-four years ago.

Ning Daoran instantly cast a spell to use Wood Escape, moving continuously forward through the woods.

A Demon Path Foundation Establishment aura emanated from the woods and this aura was very similar to the Blood Drinking Demon Technique that Ning Daoran had refined to perfection.

This Blood Drinking Demon Technique was a cultivation technique practiced by Old Demon Ye, who was indeed a figure from the Demon Path.

The next moment, a heart-racing sight appeared before Ning Daoran.

In the dense, shadowy woods, an absolutely gorgeous woman was trussed up in the form of a ‘big’ character by a rope-like magical treasure, her long dress stained with blood, and her disheveled hair adding to her pitiable state.

Her figure was slender, and the enticing curves beneath her thin clothes were faintly visible.

‘This person looks familiar…’

Ning Daoran furrowed his brows, wasn’t this the same long-legged senior sister from the Star Moon Pavilion he had casually rescued in the Cangnan Secret Realm? What was her name, Liu Xingyu? How coincidental?

At this moment, Liu Xingyu was at the Early Stage of Foundation Establishment, but her cultivation had been sealed by the magical treasure, leaving her as helpless as a fish on a chopping block.

The one holding Liu Xingyu captive was a Mid-stage Demon Cultivator, a robust-looking man.

“Tsk tsk, Fairy Liu of the Star Moon Pavilion, truly a rare beauty in this world…”

The Demon Cultivator’s lips curled up, “Although all women in the world are but skeletons of beauty, such a skeleton is too tempting not to desire. If Fairy Liu nods in agreement to become my concubine, I will spare your life, how about it?”

“In your dreams!”

Liu Xingyu’s eyes brimmed with resentment, “The righteous and the demonic are never compatible, I’d rather die than sully myself with the likes of you!”

‘Senior sister has spoken well!’

Hidden among the vines, Ning Daoran inwardly praised.

“Aoao?”

Beside him, Big Stupid Deer sent a telepathic inquiry, asking whether to take action as it was eager to try if it could eliminate a Mid-stage Foundation Establishment.

“Go ahead.”

Ning Daoran sent a telepathic response, “Old Lu, just do it, and I’ll back you up.”

In an instant, the earth trembled, and earth spurs soared into the sky, targeting the Mid-stage Demon Cultivator!

“What?”

The Demon Cultivator was unaware that someone was hidden underground.

Among the thunderous noises, Big Stupid Deer transformed into a fierce tiger bursting from the earth; its lightning-fast claws swept across aiming directly at the Demon Cultivator’s chest.

“This is bad!”

The Demon Cultivator was shocked and was about to soar into the sky.

“Where do you think you’re going?”

Suddenly, two golden ropes twisted around his legs, none other than Ning Daoran’s Second Order High Grade Spiritual Artifact, the Golden Silk Rope.

“Damn it!”

The Demon Cultivator shouted loudly as the brilliance of his Second-rank Inner Armor flashed out, and instantly there was a loud noise. Big Stupid Deer’s tiger claws left deep marks on the inner armor.

“Fellow Daoist, who are you exactly!?”

As the Demon Cultivator shouted, he hastily raised his hand to take out a blood-colored short knife from his Storage Bag. With a “swoosh” sound, he cut off both legs that were bound by the Golden Silk Rope!

Amputation to survive?!

Both Ning Daoran and Big Stupid Deer were greatly shocked.

Impressive!

“Hmph!”

The Demon Cultivator turned into tunneling light and soared into the sky, turning around and glaring fiercely at Ning Daoran, “I will remember you!”

Just as he finished his threatening words, suddenly a burst of blue light exploded in the sky!

The Jade Saber, Ning Daoran’s Second-tier top-grade spiritual tool!

“This is bad!”

The Demon Cultivator was shocked again and hurriedly held up a Turtle Shell spiritual tool to defend himself.

“Boom—”

Amidst a bell-like loud sound, although the Turtle Shell blocked the strike of the Jade Saber, the Demon Cultivator’s upward momentum was instantly suppressed.

In a turning moment, a sharp sound of wind breaking sounded from behind his head, and the Azure Dragon Spear had already smashed onto his face.

“It’s over….”

The Demon Cultivator was so frightened his soul nearly flew away, hastily urging a Second-rank Golden Light Talisman.

Though this man was a practitioner of the Demon Path and had been invincible for a century, never failing, this was the biggest loss he had ever suffered, even having his legs severed yet still unable to escape the tightening net.

“Yo~~”

After a deer cry, Big Stupid Deer’s antlers brutally struck his back, completely scattering the light from the Golden Light Talisman.

But this was only the first layer of strength. Big Stupid Deer practiced both Dharma Body and physical cultivation—the force of the collision was followed by numerous dense Ice Cones, Fierce Flames, and Wind Blades smashing onto the Demon Cultivator’s body all at once, causing him to instantly suffer numerous wounds.

“How dare you do this!?”

The Demon Cultivator was outraged, his eyes blood red, and streams of Demonic Qi rose from his body.

In response, Ning Daoran struck him on the head with a spear!

“Bang!”

His skull shattered, but he did not die from the injury.

He kept retreating backward.

Big Stupid Deer’s antlers brutally stabbed him again in the back, several bloody holes profusely bleeding.

His body moving forward again, then he took another spear from Ning Daoran.

After several such exchanges, the Mid-stage Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator could no longer endure; his breath ceased, and he died on the spot!

Ning Daoran quickly collected his treasures and Storage Bag.

“Wuuu~~~”

From the Storage Bag, the Green Ghost Flag’s Green-clothed Lady softly called out.

This Mid-stage Foundation Establishment soul was dead, and it would be a waste not to use it.

“Eat.”

Ning Daoran gently commanded.

Instantly, the Green-clothed Lady turned into a wisp of green smoke and flew out, swallowing the soul of the Mid-stage Demon Cultivator in one gulp.

“Ah…”

Bound in the air, Liu Xingyu, Fairy Liu, was greatly alarmed. She had found Ning Daoran somewhat familiar and was just about to say, “Fellow Chaotic Sect brother, please let me down.”

But then, he released a terrifying Green-clothed Evil Ghost who swallowed the soul of a Foundation Establishment Demon Cultivator in one bite!

So, was this fellow brother also from the Demon Path?

“Master…”

The colossal figure of the Green-clothed Lady knelt on the ground, placing her hands on her snow-white slender thighs, making a gentle pose, yet her eyes glanced towards the bodies of the Star Moon Pavilion female cultivators not far away.

The implication was clear; she wanted to consume those as well.

“Don’t even think about it!”

Ning Daoran spoke calmly, “Dare to entertain such thoughts again, and I’ll kill you with one spear!”

“Yes, Master.”

“Return!”

“As you command!”

The next second, Little Qing turned into a wisp of green smoke and drifted back into the Storage Bag.

…

Ning Daoran raised his hand and with several strokes of blue Sword Points, cut the magical tool binding Liu Xingyu.

“This fellow Chaotic Sect brother…”

Liu Xingyu rubbed her hands, then quickly took out another long skirt and put it on her body, her pretty face slightly blushing, “Why do I find you so familiar like I’ve seen you somewhere before, brother…”

“What sister is saying, you and I are strangers meeting by chance…”

Ning Daoran slowly approached, saying, “Sister, what is the background of this Foundation Establishment cultivator? I found something on him. Sister, see if you recognize it.”

“Oh?”

Liu Xingyu turned around, stretching her graceful neck to take a look.

“Slap!”

She saw nothing, but received a surprise chop to the neck from Ning Daoran.

“Ah?”

Liu Xingyu was stunned, the chop feeling surprisingly familiar!

Ning Daoran quickly utilized the Soul Searching Technique to erase the segment of memory Liu Xingyu had about him.

Then, taking Big Stupid Deer with him, he left using the Wood Escape, flicking a spell to wake her up before leaving.

“Wuuu~~~”

Liu Xingyu rose to her feet, rubbing her arms, her sparkling big eyes wide open, showing a completely bewildered expression.
