Chapter 88: Profound Qi Arrows of Light

Xu Disheng was observing his sea of consciousness as he was leaving the Yunxia Pavilion.

In his sea of consciousness, beneath the cyan jade flute and the black Soul Force Flute, there was a small brilliant golden bow floating there, slowly revolving as it spilled forth golden light in an exquisite manner.

A Magic Treasure!

There were very few people who had a Magic Treasure, even among Dao Foundation powerhouses. Magic Treasures were simply too precious. Even the most ordinary of them like the Glorious Sun Bow easily exceeded a thousand spirit stones.

It was even less worth mentioning the Sea of Qi stage disciples. For most of them, having a Spirit Tool that was a few dozen spirit stones was already considered pretty good. The more rich ones with a powerful backer could have one or two high-grade Spirit Tools that were several hundred spirit stones in value, allowing them to suppress those at the same stage. For example, Bai Zhehua, whose father was at the Dao Foundation stage, had several Spirit Tools on him, amounting to a value of 500-600 spirit stones in total.

Only those who had an absolutely massive backing, or those that had been favored by the sect for a long time could obtain a Magic Treasure at the Sea of Qi stage.

However, if a Sea of Qi stage disciple had a Magic Treasure, they couldn’t display its full might. Even a peak Sea of Qi stage disciple would only be able to bring out 40-50% of the Magic Treasure’s might.

Feng Zhao’s back was ramrod straight as he followed behind Xu Disheng. With a hint of pandering in his voice, he said, “Senior Martial Brother, is there anything else you would like to buy?”

Just now, the Yunxia Pavilion had given him a whole 20 spirit stones as commission fee. For Feng Zhao, this was a huge windfall.

However, the work of a guide disciple couldn’t be done by just any random person. These clever disciples were practically all close to the lineage disciples of Canxia Peak. Regardless of their cultivation, they could earn at least 30 spirit stones in a single day! The spirit stones they earned were taxed by Canxia Peak, but even despite that, they could earn quite a bit.

Today was a breath of fresh air for Feng Zhao. By being with Xu Disheng, he had earned 20 spirit stones in just half a day! Even if he excluded the portion that he had to pay in taxes to the Peak, he would still be left with 6-7 spirit stones. It could be said that in the entire month, this was the most he had ever earned in one go, so he couldn’t help being excited.

Xu Disheng exited the massive gate of the marketplace. He shook his head and said, “You can go now.”

Feng Zhao watched Xu Disheng leave on his Spirit Cloud, feeling a bit pained inside. These kinds of disciples who could spend loads of spirit stones to buy a Magic Treasure all had incredibly powerful backers. If he had been able to chat it up with Xu Disheng and establish a connection, he could have gained huge profits. He wanted to try to get closer to him, but along the way, he hadn’t found the opportunity. He could only let out a sigh in secret.

But still, why was this person riding such an ugly black Spirit Cloud? Feng Zhao shook his head. Perhaps this person had a strange hobby. After all, just now in that pile of ‘junk’, he had seen a fairly valuable purple Spirit Cloud. Turning around, he walked back to the gate to the marketplace and stood with several other disciples, waiting for another guest to come by.

As soon as Xu Disheng landed in front of his courtyard on Morning Dew Peak, his key jade slip inside of his storage pouch began to vibrate.

This courtyard wasn’t that different from the one in the Outer Region of Mingxin Mountain. It was more extravagant and had two more rooms, but the array formation was virtually the same. The key jade slip could only receive news through the array when it was in the courtyard.

After opening the light barrier, he walked into his palace room and took out the jade slip and silently checked it.

“Junior Martial Brother Xu, I just returned to Morning Dew Peak today. I heard that you guys went on a mission, and it was actually a small-scale mission with Chen Xingzhou. I even heard that Junior Martial Brother Xi died while on the mission. Come quickly to my courtyard. There’s something I want to discuss with you,” Bai Zhehua’s voice was projected from within. At the end, a small map of Morning Dew Peak was attached, showing the location of Bai Zhehua’s courtyard. It was very close to the summit of Morning Dew Peak.

Xu Disheng didn’t care about it that much, and he lightly put down the jade slip.

When he reached out both hands and closed them, a golden light gradually condensed. A brilliant golden bow with complex layers of seals on it soon materialized in his hands. Engraved with intricate designs, the golden halo of light emitted by the bow spread outwards, brightly illuminating the entire palace room.

With a thought, a water mirror appeared in the hall. It was the Absorbing Spirit Array that came with the courtyard’s palace room. The array could manifest an Absorbing Spirit Mirror for the disciples to use when practicing their techniques. Its defense was comparable to that of an ordinary Dao Foundation stage powerhouse.

Profound qi surrounded his hands as he poured it into Glorious Sun Bow, causing the golden light radiating from it to shine even brighter. He pulled on the bowstring, which was formed from golden light, and profound qi from his Sea of Qi began to rapidly funnel into the bow. An entirely golden arrow of light condensed into being, clad with a faint aura of destruction.

In just a short moment, 20-30% of the profound qi in his Sea of Qi had disappeared before he could fully condense one arrow of light. Xu Disheng fixed his gaze on the slowly undulating Absorbing Spirit Mirror before releasing the bowstring.

The golden light turned into a beam and shot out as fast as lightning, smashing ruthlessly into the Absorbing Spirit Mirror!

The arrow of light dissipated. But countless motes of light filled the space, and an invisible shockwave swept powerfully through the palace room, turning the desk in front of him into fine powder.

The motes of light filling the palace room slowly dispersed. The surface of the water mirror was shaking violently, and it was somewhat caved in. After a short while, it returned back to its former state.

Xu Disheng nodded his head in satisfaction. The power of the arrows of light formed from profound qi weren’t bad. It was important to note that for the sake of meeting all of the disciples’ needs for practicing techniques, the defenses of this Absorbing Spirit Mirror were equivalent to that of the Dao Foundation stage!

If he were to use this arrow of light on a Dao Foundation stage cultivator, it would turn out just like this Absorbing Spirit Mirror. He would be capable of causing a bit of injury to them.

Of course, a Dao Foundation stage powerhouse wouldn’t be that dumb and just stand there obediently, allowing him to shoot without any retaliation. A simple defensive technique from a Dao Foundation stage powerhouse would be enough to cancel out the arrow of light.

However! This was the case for a Dao Foundation stage powerhouse.

If someone at the Sea of Qi stage were to receive this profound qi arrow of light with a high-grade defensive Spirit Tool, or much less, an ordinary defensive Spirit Tool for that matter, their defenses would be penetrated and they would get absolutely obliterated by it.

Xu Disheng still had three Destruction Arrows. According to his conjecture, these arrows were incredibly powerful! Every single one of these arrows was saturated with the aura of destruction. Even if there was a peak Sea of Qi stage disciple with a high-grade defensive Spirit Tool, they still wouldn’t be able to block these Destruction Arrows.

After all, only when coupled with the Destruction Arrows could the Glorious Sun Bow actually be considered a complete Magic Treasure. In the future, if he wanted to continue using this Magic Treasure, he would have to think of a way to procure more arrows.

Originally, Chen Xingzhou was too arrogant because everything had always been smooth sailing for him, so he only had one ordinary defensive Spirit Tool. As a result, he got wasted by Xu Disheng’s Summon Rain technique, which had the Corrosion Incantation applied on top of it.

There were only a little more than 10 days left until the tournament. Xu Disheng was still planning to go on another mission to find a powerful soul or ghost that he could seal into the Soul Suppressing Vestment to increase the power of the Soul Vessel.

He released his fingers from the Glorious Sun Bow and it turned into light and vanished. The exquisite golden bow appeared back in his sea of consciousness, revolving slowly within.

Xu Disheng picked up the key jade slip again, replying to Bai Zhehua’s message.

“Senior Martial Brother Bai, I need to go to Mountain Affairs Peak. I’m going to do another mission before the Inner Disciple Tournament. I’ll come find you when I get back.”
