Chapter 310: Chapter 307: Go with the Flow, Undead Mage
With a surge of white light entering his body, Xiu Xin couldn’t help but let out a comfortable moan.
It was truly blissful.
The deep, bone-deep wounds on his body immediately sprouted new flesh and healed rapidly, even the several broken ribs healed quickly under Qin Feng’s Healing Divine Power.
Although disciples of the Ghost Controlling Sect practiced Ghost Controlling and Corpse Refining, they were different from Undead Mages.
Undead Mages had an abundance of Death Qi in their bodies. If touched by Qin Feng’s Healing Holy Light, not only would it do no healing, but it could likely kill them.
Xiu Xin’s True Yuan still belonged to Daoism, and though his body inevitably had some Ghost Energy and Yin Qi, these were unrelated to his body, enabling Qin Feng to easily heal his injuries.
Of course, these were only external injuries. Xiu Xin’s serious injuries were internal ones. Previously, his Lifebound Spiritual Ghost was severely injured by a strike from Holy Knight Doro, nearly dissipating, thereby affecting Xiu Xin’s Divine Sense and Origin. Later, to counteract the Light Fighting Energy left in his body by the Holy Knight, his internal True Yuan was completely depleted.
Qin Feng’s Healing Divine Power could currently only heal external wounds, not touching the Origin nor capable of healing Xiu Xin’s Lifebound Spiritual Ghost.
This Healing Divine Power itself was a Physical Body Divine Power born from the combination of the Yimu Vitality contained in the Azure Dragon Daoist Body and Power of Giant Dragon Origin, infused with powerful Light Power. Xiu Xin’s Lifebound Spiritual Ghost was extremely Yin and pure and was heavily injured. He wouldn’t dare allow Qin Feng’s healing light to touch it, for even a slight contact could grind away the last of his Soul True Spirit and lead to his ultimate demise.
Even so, Xiu Xin was utterly shocked by Qin Feng’s Healing Divine Power. Such potent healing capabilities, if faced with a rival of equal strength, could simply exchange injury for injury, surely exhausting the opponent to death.
After his external wounds were healed, Xiu Xin felt a surge of energy. He sat up and, smiling at Qin Feng, said, “I didn’t expect your Beast Taming Sect to possess such powerful Healing Divine Power, truly impressive, oh? Your aura… have you advanced to the Golden Core Realm?”
Although his True Yuan had not recovered, his Divine Sense was still present. Qin Feng, while applying Healing Divine Power, made no attempt to conceal his aura, which is how Xiu Xin sensed Qin Feng’s current Cultivation.
This gave him another shock.
He hadn’t expected Qin Feng to have cultivated to the Golden Core Realm so quickly. When they first met, Qin Feng’s Cultivation wasn’t even as high as his, yet now he had advanced ahead of him.
Qin Feng nodded modestly, “I am ashamed to admit, having used countless resources of the Sect as a True Disciple, I only advanced to Golden Core a few days ago, I truly owe a lot to the affection of the Sect elders.
As for this Healing Divine Power, I awakened it when I reached the Golden Core a few days ago, and currently, it only heals superficial wounds. If the injuries affect the Origin, I am powerless.”
He spoke a bit boastfully.
Of course, he did so on purpose, just to show off in front of Xiu Xin.
Thus, he wouldn’t admit to Xiu Xin that he had intentionally not concealed his aura to let Xiu Xin sense it.
Previously, being alone here, he had no friends to talk to, so now that he had met Daoist Fellow Xiu Xin from the Ghost Controlling Sect, he naturally wanted to boast a bit and satisfy his own pride, relaxing his tense spirit as well.
After all, exploring the truths of a world alone put great pressure on him.
Especially having previously infiltrated Druidism, constantly being in a tribe overseen by a Great Druid, he was always on edge, careful not to reveal himself, keeping his spirit continuously tense.
Hearing this, Xiu Xin involuntarily grimaced.
Why did it always seem like this guy was showing off, behaving as though he was flaunting something in front of him?
Moreover, what was his intention in saying this in front of him?
“I am also a True Disciple in the Ghost Controlling Sect!”
“I haven’t advanced to the Golden Core Realm yet. By saying that, where do you put my face?”
Qin Feng did not continue to flaunt with him. With such a big incident happening at the church, he could not stay outside for too long and had to return soon, so he directly asked, “You mentioned earlier that you were summoned here, what’s that about?”
“Don’t mention it, I’ve been unlucky recently, always running into unfortunate situations.”
Daoist Fellow Xiu Xin said with distress, “I had sneaked into a city of the Demon Clan, planning to make a big move to garner enough cultivation resources. Although I was about to succeed, an unexpected error occurred, and I could only flee in haste. Even so, I was still embarrassingly chased by many generals of the Demon Clan.
Later, as they chased me into a dead end, I happened to encounter a strange summoning contract. Originally, the contract was meant to summon another demon beast, but it just so happened that the demon beast was killed by my Silver-Armored Corpse, and then the summoning contract fell onto my Silver-Armored Corpse.
Because the killing of the demon beast was rather loud, those Demon Clan generals chased after me again. With no escape and no other choice, I let the Silver-Armored Corpse agree to the contract, and then I used the Ghost Dao Secret Method to merge with my Lifebound Spiritual Ghost, transforming into an illusory soul body attached to the Silver-Armored Corpse, and traveled through space to this world.
Through the Silver-Armored Corpse, I got some understanding of the contract. I knew that after being summoned there, after a certain amount of time, it would be repelled by the world’s principles and then sent back to its original location by the force of the contract.
At that time, I thought since there was no way to escape, I might as well hide in another world first, and then return with the Silver-Armored Corpse after those demons had left.”
“Is that even possible?”
Qin Feng listened with great interest, “What about your Silver-Armored Corpse then? So much time has passed, it must have fulfilled the contract and been sent back, right?”
The expression on Daoist Fellow Xiu Xin’s face turned sour, “It really was sent back.”
“Why didn’t you go back with it?”
“I didn’t have time.”
Daoist Fellow Xiu Xin bittered with a smile, “It can only be said that man plans, heaven decides. My plan was good, but I didn’t expect that just as I arrived in this world, before I could even stabilize, I was attacked.
It was a battlefield, where two groups were fighting fiercely. Being forced into a corner, I had to fight those who attacked me. But to my surprise, those people were incredibly powerful, and it only took moments before they separated me and my Silver-Armored Corpse.
Those guys were very strong, apart from one who could rival a Purple Mansion Cultivator, he also had many powerful people under his command. They surrounded my Silver-Armored Corpse and me in different camps, and then when the summoning time for the Silver-Armored Corpse was up, it was directly transported away, and I couldn’t even make it in time to reunite with it, leaving me stranded in this Exotic Realm World.”
“Hehe…”
At this, Qin Feng suddenly laughed a bit maliciously, “How was it? Were you particularly desperate then?”
“Yes.”
Daoist Fellow Xiu Xin nodded, “At that time, I felt as good as dead. With my cultivation, I simply didn’t have the ability to traverse space and find my way back to the original world. I thought I’d be trapped in this world for life.
Moreover, at that time I was still under siege, and was severely injured by a Holy Knight in one strike, and my Lifebound Spiritual Ghost almost perished directly. After being captured alive, I had no strength to escape and could only wait to be burnt alive, luckily I met Daoist Fellow Qin.”
At this point, he looked at Qin Feng with curiosity, “How did you come to this world? Surely you weren’t summoned like I was?”
“That’s not it, I was transported here.”
Qin Feng smiled, “I had subdued a Lion Scorpion Beast in the Red Flame Demon Realm. That Lion Scorpion Beast had been summoned to this world, so I reported this matter to the Sect.”
Grandmaster Kongkong had tampered with that Lion Scorpion Beast, originally planning to slowly ascertain the position of this world. Unfortunately, the Lion Scorpion Beast was unlucky and was killed by someone right after it was summoned for the second time.
Since the Lion Scorpion Beast was subdued by me and still bore the Binding Spell I left on it, Grandmaster Kongkong consulted with me to send me to this realm before the remnants of his backup plan on the beast faded. He wanted me to locate the spatial weak points of this realm, set up a Positioning Array, and prepare for future plans.”
“So that’s how it is.”
Upon hearing this, Xiu Xin finally understood why Qin Feng had appeared in this distant exotic realm world.
“Since it was the revered Elder Kongkong from your sect who sent you here, does that mean you also definitely have a way to leave this realm?”
Xiu Xin stared unblinkingly at Qin Feng, looking at him with hopeful eyes.
“Indeed, there is.”
“That’s wonderful! When you go back, could you possibly take me with you?”
Xiu Xin joyfully said, “If I hadn’t encountered Daoist Fellow Qin, even if I luckily escaped death this time, I might have been trapped in this world for a lifetime.”
Qin Feng thought for a moment and said, “Taking Daoist Fellow with me is no issue, but the Transmission Array Plate Grandmaster Kongkong provided me can only guide one person. We might need to inconvenience Daoist Fellow to temporarily reside inside a Space Magical Treasure, so that I can bring Daoist Fellow Xiu Xin back with me.”
“No worries, no worries.”
Xiu Xin waved his hand. “Being able to go back is enough, otherwise, staying in this world, I may not have a chance to attain Tao.”
“If Daoist Fellow has no objections, then of course there’s no problem.”
Qin Feng nodded his head, then added, “However, I still have tasks to complete. Daoist Fellow might need to wait a few more years, as my main objective in coming to this realm is to locate the spatial weak points and set up the Positioning Array. These places are not easy to find.”
“That’s okay, I’ll help you look.”
Xiu Xin said, “The spatial weak points are generally located at the world’s nodes. Those places are often more or less dangerous. If we work together, we’ll be better situated to accomplish this.”
“In that case, I appreciate Daoist Fellow’s effort.”
Qin Feng was very pleased to have another helper. Xiu Xin, after all, was a genius of the Ghost Controlling Sect. Once his injuries were healed, he would likely be able to attain the Golden Core in no time.
Furthermore, with the various techniques of the Ghost Controlling Sect, Xiu Xin would definitely be a great help to him in the future.
“Daoist Fellow Xiu Xin, do you have any Elixir Pills to heal your injuries? If not, I have some decent Spirit Pills here, although I don’t have many that work on the divine soul.”
Qin Feng said, reaching into his Storage Bag to pull out a few bottles of elixirs.
“No need, no need.”
Xiu Xin quickly waved his hand. “Having been saved by Daoist Fellow, I already owe you a great favor; how can I accept your Spirit Pills? Rest assured, I have plenty of Spirit Pills myself, including some for healing the divine soul.”
Seeing his response, Qin Feng did not insist further.
He also knew that the Ghost Controlling Sect had an extensive understanding of souls and having more elixirs for healing the divine soul was common for them.
“Speaking of which, Daoist Fellow Qin.”
Xiu Xin remembered something and asked, “Earlier, it seemed like you were with those who captured me?”
“Correct.”
Qin Feng smiled and said, “I am currently posing as a priest from the Light God Church, preparing to go to the Holy Mountain of the Light God Church to participate in the selection of the Saint Heir.”
“Selection of the Saint Heir?”
“That’s right. After I arrived in this realm, I first joined Druidism, and then…”
Qin Feng didn’t hide anything from Xiu Xin. These matters weren’t something worth concealing, as Xiu Xin would find out about the existence of Druidism if he stayed in this realm long enough.
Eventually, he would guess Qin Feng’s interest in the heritage of Druidism.
Rather than letting him guess, it was better to be upfront from the beginning.
“Who would have thought Daoist Fellow would have such an opportunity.”
After hearing about Druidism, Xiu Xin was instantly envious.
Indeed, the cultivation methods of Druidism could greatly assist the disciples of the Beast Taming Sect. Qin Feng might gain significant attention from the upper echelons of the Beast Taming Sect once he brought back the inheritance of transforming into Demon Beasts from Druidism.
Seeing the envy in his eyes, Qin Feng thought for a moment and smiled, “Daoist Fellow Xiu Xin need not be envious. Although this realm has become a battleground for gods competing for faith, resulting in the beings here not developing much novelty in power, there are still some cultivation techniques that could be useful to your sect.”
“Oh?”
Xiu Xin was overjoyed upon hearing this. “Daoist Fellow arrived in this world before me and must have learned many things. Please teach me.”
“Heh…”
Qin Feng chuckled lightly. “Daoist Fellow may not know, but the undead mages of this realm have formed their unique branch. They are not only skilled in manipulating Dead Souls and Undead Beings but can also communicate with the Netherworld and summon undead warriors from the Netherworld for battle. Moreover, their undead magic also has many aspects that could be useful for Daoist Fellow to learn from.”
“Undead mages?”
Xiu Xin pondered for a moment and said, “Earlier, I indeed heard those knights calling me an Undead Mage, though I didn’t pay attention to it at the time. Now it seems they regarded me as one because I dealt with Ghost Items and Zombies.
Well, in that case, I should really discuss and exchange ideas with some undead mages.
Thank you for the guidance, Daoist Fellow Qin. If I achieve something later on, I will definitely not forget the kindness you showed me.”
“Daoist Fellow Xiu Xin is too courteous.”
Qin Feng smiled and didn’t make much of it. Even if he hadn’t mentioned these things, Xiu Xin could have found out on his own.
In that case, it was better to offer a favor freely.
What do you think?
