The Demonic Cultivator In Zombie World - Chapter 156: Leave Again

Blue Star.

Chu Xuan continued to sit in meditation, cultivating.

One year, two years, three years…

Time swiftly passed by. Chu Xuan never cared much about the passing of time. Here, ten years might pass, and only a year would elapse on Mystic Azure Star.

Hum!

His internal energy surged. In the blink of an eye, he broke through another layer. He stepped into the seventh level of the Golden Core stage.

The seventh level of Golden Core, belonging to the latter stages, signified immensely strong capabilities. He could easily eliminate cultivators in the middle stages of Golden Core.

“The number of Yin Thunder Seeds in my dantian has also reached over two thousand, not bad, not bad.”

Chu Xuan stood up, a smile spreading across his face.

At that moment, Long rushed in from outside the formation, babbling rapidly.

Chu Xuan was surprised, “What did you say? The Parasitic Seeds sensed the scent of Psionic Cube and are now battling a foreign power? Interesting, let’s go have a look.”

Moments later, he returned to the farm.

Chu Xuan placed his hand on the Zombie Matriarch’s head. With a sweep of his spiritual sense, he easily saw through the Zombie Matriarch to the scene where the Parasite Child was.

The Parasite Seeds were inhabiting a group of giant apes. These apes were as tall as a building, with thick skins and flesh.

The herds of giant apes charged forward. Wherever they went, the defensive lines formed by Superhumans were easily torn apart. Only tanks and artillery could inflict damage on them.

However, the apes were both intelligent and agile. Upon spotting tanks and artillery, they quickly maneuvered around or dispersed their formation. And swiftly dismantled those heavy weapons.

An entire strike force composed of third and fourth-level Superhumans couldn’t delay this group of giant apes.

“The Harsha Dynasty?”

Chu Xuan noted the appearance and skin color of those Superhumans, slightly surprised.

The Harsha Dynasty was a major nation located south of the Han country. Vast, towering mountain ranges separated the two nations. Unexpectedly, the Parasite Seeds had drifted across the ocean to that location.

They had successfully landed, infested a group of giant apes, and directed them to attack the Superhumans of the Harsha Dynasty.

The Superhumans of the Harsha Dynasty were truly inept. They had no heart for battle and their morale was extremely low. Once casualties occurred, they fled in droves.

Chu Xuan estimated that perhaps one-third of the casualties were caused by the Harsha Dynasty’s own Superhumans.

“Good, let your children do their best. If they can bring back fragments of the Psionic Cube, I’ll reward you with three large Blood Pearls.”

Chu Xuan smiled.

Immediately, the Zombie Matriarch’s eyes widened, nodding vigorously.

The Spiritual Qi on Blue Star was scarce. Even consuming large Blood Pearls, zombies couldn’t experience a rapid rise in cultivation levels like demonic cultivators; they could only increase their Psionic levels.

Both the Zombie Matriarch and the Zombie Empress had now reached the eighth level, only a step away from the ninth.

Just as Chu Xuan was about to leave, the Zombie Empress started to roar. With a sweep of his spiritual sense, he understood why the Zombie Empress was agitated. Its dispatched Corpse Boats had also detected the scent of Psionic Cubes.

However, the signal was very faint. And it was constantly moving. One moment it was in the southern seas, and the next, it had moved to the northern lands. Very peculiar.

“Let your children continue to track it; ideally, they should bring back fragments of the Psionic Cube on their own.”

“What? You plan to build a new batch of Corpse Boats with built-in attack capabilities?”

“Sure, that’s completely fine.”

Chu Xuan nodded with a smile. He stroked his chin, thoughtful.

The appearance of two fragments of Psionic Cubes at once. It seemed that the completion of a full Psionic Cube was indeed imminent.

Chu Xuan was very confident in the capabilities of the Corpse Boats and the Parasite Child. He was also confident in the initiative of the Zombie Empress and Zombie Matriarch.

Motivated by the promise of large Blood Pearls, they would surely go all out to bring him the fragments of the Psionic Cubes. All he had to do was wait.

“The Thunder Crystals are almost used up; I need to buy some more. I’ve been cultivating on Sea Blue for five years, which equates to just five months on Mystic Azure Star. It’s been quite some time; there should also be news from the Alliance of Twenty-Six Islands by now.”

With a flicker, Chu Xuan returned to Mystic Azure Realm.

…

Black Dragon Mountain.

Chu Xuan had only returned for a few days when Song Junjie and Qian Tang brought him news.

“Master, our Hundred Refinement Sect and the Twenty-Six Islands Alliance have come to blows! It is said that the Twenty-Six Islands Alliance has overstepped its bounds, actually slaughtering an entire small market town of ours and assassinating two Golden Core cultivators!”

Upon hearing this news, Chu Xuan could not help but laugh. He had guessed right after all. It was truly a self-directed play. He wondered who the two sacrifices had been.

Casually, Chu Xuan asked, “Who were the two Golden Cores who died?”

Song Junjie recalled for a moment, “One surnamed Liu, the other Bai, both unknown to us.”

Chu Xuan felt a twinge of sentiment. It seemed Yuan Zichu had not died. That was a relief. Had Yuan Zichu died, his possessions would have fallen into others’ hands. What a waste that would have been.

Qian Tang chuckled slyly, “Our sect is now calling upon cultivators to head to the Myriad Islands Lake, to deliver a crushing blow to the Twenty-Six Islands Alliance.”

Both of them possessed numerous demonic techniques and could be considered demonic cultivators. The two were exceedingly astute.

Having been with Chu Xuan for so long, they had learned much. At first, they had been unaware.

But now they had more or less figured out that those two unfortunate souls were probably just sacrifices for igniting the war.

The Hundred Refinement Sect wanted to annex the Twenty-Six Islands Alliance, using this incident merely as a moral pretext.

To swallow your territory, kill your people, seize your treasures, and still stand on the moral high ground to criticize you.

It was indeed a devastating act of heart and soul.

“Do you want to go?” Chu Xuan asked with a smile.

Song Junjie and Qian Tang immediately shook their heads, “No, no, we’ll just stay here in our little plot of land at Black Dragon Mountain.”

They were very clear in their minds. Chu Xuan would never let them leave.

Chu Xuan chuckled, “That’s right, indulging in constant conflict is far from the righteous path. Although you cannot cultivate virtue, staying out of disputes is certainly wise.”

Song Junjie and Qian Tang nodded in agreement, murmuring, “Yes, yes, Master is correct.”

On Mystic Azure Star, two years passed in the blink of an eye.

The Hundred Refinement Sect, united and powerful, quickly subdued the disorganized Twenty-Six Islands Alliance.

Their Nascent Soul ancestor suffered a devastating defeat against the Nascent Soul ancestor of the Hundred Refinement Sect. He had no choice but to submit.

After conquering the Twenty-Six Islands Alliance, the Hundred Refinement Sect continued northward, advancing against other major forces around Myriad Islands Lake.

Shang Tianjue never appeared directly. But Miao Zizai’s strength was formidable, unmatched by any Nascent Soul cultivator of the same realm. The territory of the Hundred Refinement Sect grew increasingly vast.

However, Chu Xuan felt that disaster was likely looming for the Hundred Refinement Sect.

Before the Feathered Ascension Palace could direct its wrath towards the Hundred Refinement Sect, it was time for him to withdraw.

…

“What? You’re going to Myriad Islands Lake for a mission? Fellow daoist He, I thought you disliked conflict, so why the sudden interest in Myriad Islands Lake?”

Jian Yitong was quite surprised upon hearing Chu Xuan’s plans.

Chu Xuan smiled, “I’ve been at Black Dragon Mountain for too long, tired of the same scenery. I wish to see other places.”

Jian Yitong sighed deeply, “Well then, go ahead, I will look after your Black Dragon Mountain.”

Chu Xuan lowered his voice, “That Snow Grease, she’s actually an old crone, her beauty faded. Be wary.”

Jian Yitong’s pupils suddenly contracted, his mouth agape as he stared at Chu Xuan, unable to speak for a long while.
