Chapter 95 Fang Ling Comes of Age and Meets Qing Tan
Before they could recover their senses, a figure clad in black also burst forth from the fissure.
More violent explosions came from within the fissure.
The black-robed cultivator landed on a large rock in the basin, looking in the direction the white-robed female cultivator had gone with a complex expression.
This person was well-known to Yu Qingtan.
Fang Ling.
When Fang Ling emerged from the fissure, his body emitted the spiritual power fluctuations of the early Foundation Establishment stage, but his aura was unstable, and his clothes were in disarray.
The crowd of demonic beasts and cultivators understood that what was supposed to be a near-collapsing secret realm within the fissure had now completely shattered.
It turned out that this was a damaged secret realm that Ancestor Blood Xi had accidentally discovered during Fang Ling\'s previous training in the Yunhua Mountain Range.
Ancestor Blood Xi advised Fang Ling not to risk entering it, and Fang Ling had initially given up on the idea, but after being somewhat struck down by Yu Qingtan on his last return to Suichuan Immortal City, he resolutely decided to take a chance in this secret realm.
This secret realm was known as the Blood Jiao Secret Realm, the place where a Fifth Stage Blood Jiao had once fallen and secludedly cultivated countless years ago.
As time passed, most of the treasures had eroded with the years, but he still reaped considerable rewards within the secret realm.
What he didn\'t know was that shortly after he entered, a Golden Core female cultivator, having gained some clues, also found this secret realm.
Since the secret realm was fragile and could no longer withstand the force of the Third Stage, she suppressed her cultivation to the Foundation Establishment stage before entering the Blood Jiao Secret Realm.
She headed straight for her main target, the remnants of the Fifth Stage Blood Jiao\'s demon core, and found it successfully. However, out of excitement, she accidentally broke the blood jiao\'s aphrodisiac pore pouch while continuing her exploration.
Even a faint whiff of its lingering scent was comparable to the strongest aphrodisiac.
For endless eons, as blood jade turned to azure smoke,
The secret realm bloomed with the colors of spring, fate blossomed in the midst of creation.
Afterwards.
The white-robed woman couldn\'t help but unleash the spiritual pressure of the Golden Core stage and pushed Fang Ling away, which also led to the beginning of the secret realm\'s collapse.
The woman in the white robe sensed danger and quickly retracted her aura, then headed towards the exit of the secret realm.
Fang Ling, who was sent flying, had no time to care about anything else and followed toward the exit of the secret realm.
However, the secret realm\'s exit was already destroyed and the white-robed woman, somewhat in despair, thought about killing this young man who had taken advantage of her first.
Feeling the white-robed woman\'s intent to kill, Fang Ling remembered a secret technique that Ancestor Blood Xi had once told him could be relied upon in situations like this.
However, the higher the cultivation, the greater the chances of success, so he told the white-robed woman about the secret technique.
Knowing there was hope for escape, the white-robed woman temporarily extinguished her thoughts of killing Fang Ling.
In the end, the two of them escaped from the Blood Jiao Secret Realm right before it completely crumbled.
"Boy, hand over your storage bag and spirit beast pouch, and we assure your safe departure," said a Foundation Establishment cultivator with a full beard.
By this time, Fang Ling was surrounded by both demons and humans.
On the side of the demonic beasts, the leaders were a Second Stage mid-term Black-Backed Bear and three Second Stage early-stage Carapace Wolves, and on the side of the human cultivators, two early Foundation Establishment stage Loose Cultivators led the way.
Before Fang Ling could respond, the Black-Backed Bear and the Carapace Wolves had already incited the First Stage demonic beasts to attack Fang Ling.
Second Stage demonic beasts had the intelligence comparable to human children of thirteen or fourteen years old, immature but not to be treated like wild beasts.
Facing the attack of more than a dozen First Stage demonic beasts, Fang Ling sneered and released twenty-eight Blood Marionettes.
Each exuding the aura of the late First Stage, they rushed towards the attacking First Stage demonic beasts.
At the same time, he shouted, "If you want my storage bag and spirit beast pouch, come and get them yourself, and see if my treasure sword is sharp enough."
"You!" The bearded foundation establishment cultivator furiously said, looking at another cultivator dressed as a farmer beside him, "Old Man Wang, this youngster is so unappreciative; we should teach him a lesson!"
"Wang Bearded, the young people today are indeed arrogant and need to be taught a thing or two."
Having said that, the two of them prepared to make their move.
Meanwhile, two second-stage early carapace wolves had already rushed towards Fang Ling.
The black-backed bear and the other carapace wolf still needed to watch out for other human race cultivators.
"Elders, do you intend to join forces with demonic beasts to besiege a member of the human race?"
At that moment, a figure brandishing a sword stepped in front of Wang Bearded and Old Man Wang.
"Youngster from the Song family, we originally wanted to help him fight the demonic beasts, but he wouldn\'t listen to reason and even threatened us. I advise you not to meddle in other people\'s business," said Wang Bearded with displeasure.
As it turned out, this person was Song Zhenbo.
"Elders, calling you that is out of respect for the elderly. Don\'t take yourselves too seriously. You were all trembling during the beast tide, but now you come out to throw your weight around," said Ge Wenxiong as he arrived beside Song Zhenbo and spoke in a grave tone.
Wang and Wang had naturally noticed Ge Wenxiong as well. Although he was no longer a single spiritual root prodigy, his ferocity in battling demonic beasts during the tide had left a deep impression on them.
With the two of them taking the lead, including Yu Qingtan, approximately sixty to seventy percent of the cultivators subtly positioned themselves behind them, indicating their support.
Seeing that he had angered the crowd, Wang Bearded then said with a wave of his sleeve, "Then we\'ll give face to the young ones from the Song family and the Ge family and won\'t take offense at his disrespectful words."
The two stepped aside, and Song Zhenbo glanced at Yu Qingtan from the corner of his eye.
He always felt a sense of familiarity with this girl.
At this moment, Fang Ling\'s situation was not looking good.
Although he had successfully reached the Foundation Establishment stage in the Secret Realm of the Blood Jiao and had even advanced his cultivation nearly approaching the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment Stage owing to a certain event.
He had sustained internal injuries from the oppression of a golden core\'s force, and he had used up a great deal of spiritual power while escaping the secret realm. In addition, he had yet to learn second-stage spells, and he didn\'t have a spiritual artifact, thus he was struggling against the two early second-stage carapace wolves.
Song Zhenbo and Ge Wenxiong exchanged glances, wanting to help but also worried that the two old geezers would play dirty tricks.
At that moment, Yu Qingtan stepped forward and used the Water Escape Technique to get close to Fang Ling.
She still attacked with the most familiar Water Blade Technique.
Hundreds of water blades, with the power of a ninth layer Qi Cultivation, shot towards the two carapace wolves.
With this move, both Fang Ling and Song Zhenbo recognized her.
The aura of a cultivator\'s spiritual power is unique, but the difference is very slight; lower-level cultivators typically can\'t discern it unless they pay close attention, and there are many methods to conceal or confuse it.
Both men had obviously made a careful note of Yu Qingtan\'s spiritual power aura.
Song Zhenbo\'s face showed delight; he had heard about the incident of Yu Qingtan being kidnapped by Qi Rui. Ge Wenxiong, who had not returned for the past two or three months, was thus unaware of it.
Fang Ling, naturally, was also unaware, and he was filled with guilt at the sudden appearance of Yu Qingtan.
However, he was a person of strong will. While the carapace wolves were dodging and defending against Yu Qingtan\'s water blades, he swiftly formed hand seals like a butterfly flitting through flowers, creating a tiny blood-red sword that shot towards one of the carapace wolves.
The Blood Sword Technique.
Although it was only a first-stage spell, its power was among the top in the first stage. Fang Ling activated it with Foundation Establishment Stage spiritual power, plus he had rich combat experience.
The blood-red tiny sword pierced into the throat of the carapace wolf, its weakest spot.
"Aooo~"
With a pitiful howl, the carapace wolf fell powerlessly.
