Chapter 946: Daoist Immortal Crane

Translator: Lordbluefire

“Attack together!”

Murong Mingyue and Mei Ziyu saw Lu Cangqiong becoming a giant ball of bugs, their expressions drastically changed as they shouted out.

This was surely some sort of dark secret art used for fleeing.

When they thought about how Lu Cangqiong was the personal student and also the right protector of the Green-robed Ancestor, they knew there would be a huge trouble if he succeeded in fleeing. Hence, they had to eliminate him here once and for all.

“Damn!”

Sun Mo felt his scalp turning numb as he silently sighed. He had been careless. After he had suppressed Lu Cangqiong, he grew greedy and wanted to use Immemorial Vairocana to force the cultivation art of that fellow out.

After all, the teacher of that fellow was one of the five great Doyens of the Dark Dawn, a half-saint. Lu Cangqiong must have learned some powerful arts..

But who knew that Lu Cangqiong had no sense of shame. He was so decisive and clean as he made the decision to flee.

It was too shameless.

Just when Sun Mo wanted to act and try to remedy the situation, a beam of green light suddenly shot over.

That beam of light was like a shooting star in the evening, arcing rapidly resplendently.

Too quick!

When Sun Mo glanced at the green light, before any thoughts could form in his mind, the beam already blasted into the gu-bugs and exploded.

Bang!

Green motes of fairy lights scattered like beautiful fireworks. What was more terrifying was that these motes of light instantly incinerated everything they came in contact with.

Hence, those bugs all caught fire and began burning up.

Swish~

Some of the bugs regrouped and Lu Cangqiong’s figure appeared again. He was tossing and turning on the ground, wanting to smother the flames while he screamed in agony.

“Retreat quickly!”

Sun Mo roared.

This was a type of fire powder concocted with a secret method. After igniting, it wouldn’t vanish until it incinerated everything nearby.

This time around, Divine Sight could be considered to have helped.

“Which lowly character sneak attacked my target? If you have the guts, scram out and fight 300 rounds with me, your grandpa!”

Xuanyuan Po’s silver spear trembled as he roared in anger.

Pak!

Before the sound of the combat addict’s voice faded away, Li Ruolan already smacked his head.

(Do you fear that your life might be too long?)

The gold-medal writer angrily glared at him.

“His archery skills are at the level of a Jebe at the very least!”

Murong Mingyue furrowed her brows.

That beam of green light was an arrow.

“Later on, me and Teacher Sun will attract the attention of the enemy. You guys should flee toward the sea of flowers.”

Mei Ziyu reminded the others in a low voice.

“This fellow is someone from the Dark Dawn and is a villain that killed many great teachers and students earlier. Thank you sir for acting in such a timely manner to kill him.”

Sun Mo spoke in a clear voice, “The Saint Gate has a rule. Those who hunt the great teachers from the Dark Dawn will be able to receive a heavy reward.”

Bai Xiqing stared at Sun Mo while praising him in her heart. “As expected of the idol I admire. He remains calm in the face of huge events and his thoughts are meticulous. He truly does have the style of a great general!”

This sentence of Sun Mo wasn’t only probing the other party’s identity. He also added benefits and a hint of threat in his words.

Unexplored areas of the Darkness Continent represented opportunities and danger.

Which cultivators of the Nine Provinces wouldn’t want to grab some benefits?

Some waited for the Saint Gate to act before purchasing relevant and detailed information from them. This could guarantee a greater degree of safety when they were exploring the area.

As for others, they were powerful and confident and wanted to do the initial exploration themselves.

This expert who had killed Lu Cangqiong clearly belonged to the latter category.

Right now, Lu Cangqiong’s corpse had turned to ashes. Even his equipment was incinerated. Hence, if that expert wanted to get the reward from the Saint Gate, he or she would need witnesses.

And given Sun Mo’s current fame, he was undoubtedly the most optimal choice.

“I saw him killing someone!”

The expert spoke with a lucid and elegant voice. It was a female voice.

“It’s stable now!”

Bai Xiqing heaved a sigh of relief.

“Stable?”

Lu Zhiruo didn’t understand.

“Given your teacher’s appearance, as long as the other party is a woman, they will surely feel a favorable impression of him. Hence, we won’t need to clash.”

Bai Xiqing explained.

Swish~

Everyone glanced over in a dumbfounded manner. Even Murong Mingyue, who always showed little emotions, had hints of shock all over her face.

(Do you dare to become an even greater simp?)

(Sun Mo might be a little... okay... very handsome, but he isn’t handsome to the extent where everyone will fall in love with him after they see him!)

Honestly speaking, Murong Mingyue felt that Bai Xiqing’s words had lowered all their statuses. What did she mean by saying ‘as long as the other party is a woman’?

(I’m precisely someone who has no feelings for him.)

After seeing everyone’s astonished expression, Bai Xiqing couldn’t help but ask in puzzlement, “Could it be that I’m wrong?”

“No, you are correct!”

Lu Zhiruo nodded in agreement after deep contemplation.

“Can you guys stop fooling around?”

Sun Mo’s face was filled with black lines as he felt a little embarrassed. (Don’t make it sound like I have to depend on my looks for a living. Up until now, I’ve always been entertaining myself using my right hand.)

Speaking of this, Sun Mo immediately grew angry. After arriving at the Nine Provinces, Sun Mo even lacked ‘materials’ to ‘cast spells’.*

“If you guys want to leave this forest, quickly do so. Otherwise, if I encounter you all, I will kill each and every one of you.”

The voice of the expert was filled with killing intent.

“Eh? From her words, could she be a local here?”

Lu Zhiruo was badly frightened.

“You mean an aboriginal?”

Xianyu Wei had a stunned look on her face. After that, she recalled the rumors she had heard regarding the Darkness Continent and couldn’t help but shiver. “I heard that they devour raw meat and even eat humans.”

“There are indeed some people who live in the Darkness Continent. The majority of them are the descendants of the first explorers. Aboriginals who live here for generations since the very start are extremely rare.”

Mei Ziyu sighed. “If aboriginals are found, it would be a tragedy to them.”

“Yeah!”

Even Li Ruolan, who loved watching a good show and didn’t mind chaos, had a worried look on her face right now.

Because to some organizations, these ‘aboriginals’ were resources. In fact, some famous schools would even send people to capture them for ‘experiments’.

“You guys should take a break first. I will go and pick the Life-Death Flower.”

Sun Mo didn’t want to return empty-handed after entering a treasure mountain.

“Immortal crane, do you have a name?”

“Yes, but you are not worthy to call me by my name.”

The immortal crane was very proud. “I don’t make friends with guys who don’t love to drink.”

“How should I address you then? As ‘damn bird’?”

Sun Mo rolled his eyes.

“You can refer to me as ‘immortal bird’!”

The immortal crane flew around the sky. “After obtaining the Life-Death Flower, you have to return my freedom to me.”

“No matter what, you have been my pet for more than half a year. Do you still not know of my character and style of doing things?”

Sun Mo frowned. “Don’t talk nonsense anymore. Quickly go!”

“Fine.”

The immortal crane was not worried at all about Sun Mo’s character.

When they arrived at the area of the Life-Death Flower, the immortal crane got Sun Mo to stand further away. After that, it flapped its wings and soared into the air, vanishing into the clouds.

Sun Mo shaded his eyes as he stared upward.

Suddenly!

A beam of white light shot down, as though it wanted to tear apart the dome of the sky. It was so quick that Sun Mo’s vision couldn’t track it.

Luckily, Sun Mo’s reaction was extremely fast. He directly looked at the Life-Death Flower.

At this moment, the immortal crane descended. When it got near the earth’s surface, it started to adjust its direction and angled itself so it resembled a sharp arrow shooting straight at the Life-Death Flower.

The Life-Death Flower seemed to sense danger. Those purple miasma formed tentacles and tried to grab the immortal crane. Sadly, they were slower by a beat.

Hu~

The immortal crane brought such huge wind pressure that the surrounding flowers, which were half as tall as a human, immediately bended.

Swish!

The sharp beak of the immortal crane successfully grabbed the Life-Death Flower. After that, it soared into the air. Those purple tentacles were frantically piercing upward, trying to entangle it.

However, the immortal crane’s skill was one level better.

As the Life-Death Flower was plucked, this flower field lost its moisture completely and started to wither at a speed visible to the naked eye. After that, the purple miasma also faded.

Not long later, they disintegrated into powder and left an empty area behind.

Huala~ Huala~

The immortal crane flapped its wings and circled the air before landing before Sun Mo.

“Why do you display so many fanciful patterns?”

Sun Mo furrowed his brow. “Are you flaunting your speed?”

“What do you know?”

The immortal crane snorted in disdain. “I had to push my speed to the max and pluck it before it could react. For heavenly ingredients and earthly treasures like this, its attacking prowess is very great despite it being a plant.”

The Life-Death Flower glowed with purple light and was very beautiful.

“Alright, thanks then.”

Sun Mo took the flower while casting Freedom Proof to nullify the contract simultaneously.

Pada!

The immortal crane couldn’t persist anymore and fell onto the ground.

“Are you okay?”

Sun Mo could see that many feathers of the immortal crane had fallen off. There were even deep lacerations on its skin and bloody wounds. Evidently, it wasn’t able to withstand the pressure from such speed.

“I’ll be fine after resting for a few days.” The immortal crane sighed helplessly. “I really want to drink a mouthful of good wine!”

“...”

Although their spiritual contract had been nullified and they had no relationship with each other starting from now, Sun Mo couldn’t just leave the immortal crane behind while it was in such a state. Hence, he stretched out his hand and tucked the crane under his arm.

“Teacher!”

After Sun Mo returned, everyone immediately crowded over, wanting to take a look at the appearance of the Life-Death Flower. Only Lu Zhiruo went over to take care of the immortal crane.

She placed it by the bonfire and took out a deerskin water sack from her bed. She then unplugged it and poured some wine out.

The eyes of the immortal crane immediately brightened.

“You are injured, please drink less.”

Lu Zhiruo persuaded. She also used the alcohol to help the immortal crane clean its wounds.

Pak! Pak! Pak!

The immortal crane lifted its wings and lashed at her.

(Are you not wasting wine like this? Quick! Pour the wine into my mouth! Do not waste even a single droplet.)

The papaya girl immediately covered her head with her hands and squatted on the floor. Because she was frequently bullied by the crane, she was already very familiar with such a posture.

“Oi!”

Sun Mo was unhappy. “Why are you bullying her?”

“Che, it’s her fortune that I chose to bully her.”

The immortal crane suddenly spoke out in the human tongue.

Swish~

Everyone directly stared over and was dumbfounded.

“Wow, you can actually speak?”

Qin Yaoguang was astonished.

Although there were immortal and spirit birds in the Nine Provinces, no one had met one capable of speech before.

“Of course. I’m an immortal bird!”

The immortal crane didn’t speak in the past because he felt that these humans weren’t worthy, and this would lower its status.

“Sir Immortal Bird, how should we address you then?”

Qin Yaoguang giggled. “In the future, I will buy wine for you to drink!”

The immortal crane no longer spoke. It was recuperating while tasting wine as Lu Zhiruo took care of it.

Ever since it was struck accidentally by Sun Mo’s Air Proof, the immortal crane had been forcefully contracted and had no way to leave during this period. The papaya girl had always been taking care of it.

Because it had lost its freedom, the immortal crane had not been in a very good mood. It would always hit Lu Zhiruo with its wings, but the papaya girl had never complained or grumbled and did her best to feed and care for it.

In fact, it even took wine baths several times, and during the process, it even enjoyed many massages.

Upon thinking of this, the immortal crane suddenly felt reluctant to leave.

These days were the most comfortable period in its life after so many years of trudging around.

(Mn, I’m also tired. Let’s stay here temporarily then!)

(I can drink wine when I’m bored and take a bath too. Also, I can bully this little girl and enjoy her massage. Such a life is definitely a very enjoyable one.)

“In the future, you can address me as ‘Daoist Immortal Crane’!”

The immortal crane used its wings to gently touch Lu Zhiruo’s head.
