The Demonic Cultivator In Zombie World

Chapter 171: So This Is Your Reason for Poisoning?

Upon seeing Wan Wuying concede, Chu Xuan immediately broke into a smile. He could have pushed for a larger share, demanding an eighty twenty percent split, but that would have been too aggressive.

A seventy-thirty split seemed more reasonable. There was no need to push Wan Wuying too hard.

"Senior brother, do you have a target in mind?" Chu Xuan asked casually.

Wan Wuying nodded, "Yes, I know a few old fellows who are still around. Their lifespans are nearing their end, and they surely want to try their luck on the battlefield beyond our realm."

"Good, then contact them," Chu Xuan nodded.

The two then took out their flying treasures and swiftly soared away. There was no need for restraint now. All of the Nascent Soul ancestors from the Feather Transformation Heaven Palace had perished.

The voice of that formidable being had spread across the entire Mystic Azure Star, clear to any cultivator who harbored spiritual energy within them. The prestige of Feather Transformation Heaven Palace had plummeted tremendously.

The three disciples under Spirit Feather Ture Master were in complete disarray, surely contemplating how to stabilize the situation. They had no time to deal with these two demonic cultivators. Such chaos was exactly what demonic cultivators longed to see!

…

Blue Star.

Chu Xuan gazed at the now-complete Psionic Cube before him, his face lighting up with joy. It was finally complete!

This had all started when monks from Feather Transformation Heaven Palace began their assault on the Hundred Refinements Sect's mountain gate array.

The Zombie Empress and Zombie Matriarch had sent word simultaneously, having discovered the whereabouts of another fragment of the Psionic Cube.

Chu Xuan had searched for a while but found nothing. Eventually, he handed the task over to the zombie army, letting them search.

Five years had passed on Blue Star, and they had indeed found it. The fragment was inside the stomach of a deep-sea leviathan, appearing now in the deep sea, now in the shallows.

"No wonder I couldn't find it before; it was hidden in the deep sea," Chu Xuan said, shaking his head with a chuckle.

"This Psionic Cube is finally complete. Does it have any new functions?" he wondered aloud, carefully examining the cube. The mysterious and intricate patterns on its surface had become even more profound.

The primal psionic energy it emitted was also immensely powerful. It wasn't an exaggeration to say that this Psionic Cube could elevate any being to a transcendent level nine.

"Could it be the primordial spirit item of Blue Star?"

Chu Xuan suddenly thought of the Mystic Azure Star's core spiritual object, the Turbid World Azure Lotus.

This Psionic Cube, capable of evolving all life on a planet, seemed just as impressive. It very much resembled what one might call a "primordial spirit item."

Just then, Chu Xuan felt an indistinct and obscure fluctuation coming from inside the Psionic Cube. The waves were sometimes long, sometimes short; at times rapid, at times gentle.

Chu Xuan furrowed his brows and delved his spiritual sense into it. He had tried this before, but unlike the magic treasure of Mystic Azure Star, this Psionic Cube could not be marked by spiritual sense. Its interior was empty, void of anything.

But this time, Chu Xuan noticed something unusual. Inside the Psionic Cube, there was a point of light. The fluctuations were emanating from this light.

Chu Xuan extended his spiritual sense towards it and instantly received a message from the light.

"…Talk! Talk, I'm freaking out! What's with this newbie, not talking at all! Eh…"

Chu Xuan, "…"

Shocked! There was actually someone speaking!

From the light point, another message came, "Newbie, I see you, why aren't you speaking!"

Then, the light point drifted towards Chu Xuan. Upon making contact, it exclaimed in shock, "Such powerful soul force! Are you really a newbie?"

Before Chu Xuan could reply, it spoke again, suspiciously, "You couldn't be some awakened Soul King, could you? Hey hey, don't joke around, say something!

Your soul power is very strong, even stronger than mine! The planet I'm from is called Pegasus Star, close to Soul Star. What's your planet called? My name is Ma Nanshan! What's yours?"

Chu Xuan remained silent.

This fellow's chatter was relentless, like a machine gun firing away without a pause.

Chu Xuan stroked his chin, pondering. Soul power, Soul King, newbie, Pegasus Star, Soul Star, Ma Nanshan? He had never heard any of these terms before.

This Psionic Cube wasn't the primordial spirit item he had speculated, but rather seemed like... a communication device.

Whoever possessed the Psionic Cube was added directly into a chat group. Whether the members of the chat group belonged to the same force, or even if they were human, was uncertain.

Being cautious, Chu Xuan chose not to speak to this so-called Ma Nanshan. He knew too little about the situation. Speaking rashly could easily expose his ignorance. So, he decided to remain silent.

Since Ma Nanshan liked to talk, it was better to just listen. Over time, by listening, he would come to understand many things.

After some thought, Chu Xuan took out the Blood Mirror. The function of the Blood Mirror seemed limited to shuttling between Mystic Azure Star and Blue Star.

Could it not travel to other planets? Or perhaps, were there prerequisites required?

Chu Xuan shook his head, no longer wanting to ponder these questions. Such a treasure as the Blood Mirror was beyond even his ability to discern its rank, let alone its prerequisites.

Right now, his only task was to continue enhancing his strength and venture into the extraterritorial battlefield.

"If it's too dangerous, I'll just return to Blue Star and continue my cultivation,"

Chu Xuan resolved. He had never been one to grow arrogant over his current level of power.

Even a mighty figure like Spirit Feather Ture Master had been slain with a single strike by a formidable being from beyond the stars. In the eyes of such powerful beings, what was he?

One must become the strongest to truly transcend everything.

...

Mystic Azure Star, one month later.

Chu Xuan arrived early at the location previously agreed upon with Wan Wuying.

Why early?

Well, what if a well-intentioned senior brother played a trick on him? He needed to ensure he controlled the situation.

"So this is your reason for poisoning?" Wan Wuying asked, looking at Chu Xuan with disfavor after a moment.

Chu Xuan laughed, "Isn't this just a way to exchange some insights on poisoning?"

Wan Wuying pointed at Zhao Wuya, who was foaming at the mouth and collapsed on the ground, "What about him?"

Chu Xuan shrugged, "Fellow daoist Zhao has been poisoned, and I'm quite helpless about it."

Wan Wuying then pointed to Huang Yuanwu, whose nostrils and corners of his mouth were bleeding, "And him?"

Chu Xuan inspected him closely and shook his head repeatedly, "That wasn't my doing, senior brother, don't pin this on me."

Wan Wuying took a closer look and chuckled awkwardly, "That was my doing, got it mixed up, haha..."

Moments later, after taking the antidote, both Zhao Wuya and Huang Yuanwu stood up, their faces sullen.

The four of them stared at each other for a long time, in a stalemate.

After a while, Zhao Wuya finally spoke, "Both of you, we're getting old and can't withstand this anymore."

"Don't drag us into your conflicts when you two are contesting with poison," Huang Yuanwu nodded repeatedly, agreeing.
