Chapter 35: 35, let me take my pick, so I chose the Cross Calamity Immortal Scripture!
Tan Shuchang wanted to ask a few more questions; after all, even the incarnation of the Death-speaking Yin God wasn’t as special as this General Huai. Unfortunately, the instance didn’t give him the time; as soon as it detected that the number of fierce ghosts within the instance seemed to be down to two, it immediately kicked Tan Shuchang out.
A multi-faction instance naturally required the existence of multiple factions; once the balance between factions was broken, it meant the game was over.
And Tan Shuchang didn’t really care about this.
After all, first, he was used to it; second, the biggest harvest of this trip was already in his hands.
Seven ghost messengers, plus one fierce ghost of unknown origin, had just made up the number required for the second invocation of the fierce ghosts carrying the lotus.
As a blood-colored lotus bloomed, that whimsical power, which shielded everything from probing, once again enveloped Tan Shuchang. Blood water materialized out of thin air, constantly flowing from the ground, and that inexplicable chill began to spread around.
This was a sign of the fierce ghosts’ appearance.
Because Tan Shuchang had thrown those eight fierce ghosts out.
Despite the suppression of the Ghost Suppressing Technique, these fierce ghosts, with their malevolent domains, still affected the surrounding environment.
Fortunately, with Tan Shuchang’s innate shielding power, even though these fierce ghosts had reached the level of causing abnormal phenomena, they were never perceived by the Yin officials of the Land of Yin and Darkness.
Otherwise, with so many fierce ghosts appearing, it would take only a short while before Tan Shuchang’s cultivation grounds would be completely surrounded by Yin officials.
The blood-colored lotus wasn’t the Lotus Platform; the real Lotus Platform, when lifted by the fierce ghosts and solidified, was exceedingly sacred in appearance.
There was not a trace of blood, and it even seemed somewhat breathtakingly beautiful.
The stone sphere fierce ghost from last time was an incarnation of the Death-speaking Yin God, which resisted for a while when Tan Shuchang refined it. But these eight fierce ghosts, being genuine on their level, couldn’t even put up a struggle.
The blood water surged upwards as if it intended to transform this place into a Blood Pool.
The Lotus Platform was sacred, faintly displaying a rainbow hue, as if a Buddha of merit was seated right here.
However, Tan Shuchang naturally had no intention of observing this subtle change in himself; that familiar sensation of increasing cultivation power appeared again. Without any unnatural haste, his cultivation level rose smoothly, as if at that moment, Tan Shuchang had cultivated for twelve years!
Tan Shuchang’s main Cultivation Technique had changed again.
The quality of the "Blood Refining Lotus Technique" was clearly superior to the "Sevenfold Demonic Body Scripture," so the first time he performed the fierce ghosts carrying the lotus, he used the "Blood Refining Lotus Technique."
"Bloody Shadow Sword Qi, although easy to remember, is not worthy of the name of my Cross Calamity Immortal Scripture..." Tan Shuchang thought for a moment and decided to rename the Bloody Shadow Sword Qi to—Calamity Witnessing Sword Qi.
After all, in Cross Calamity Immortal Scripture, how can one cross calamity without first witnessing it?
And indeed, any cultivator who encountered this Calamity Witnessing Sword Qi was truly faced with impending doom.
"Twenty-seven years of cultivation..." Feeling the robust cultivation power within his body, Tan Shuchang couldn’t help but feel greatly pleased. Disciples from the Immortal Sect in their early thirties had merely a similar level of cultivation power to him at this moment.
With the profound mysteries of the Cross Calamity Immortal Scripture, Tan Shuchang was confident he could instantly vanquish an opponent, treating them as nothing more than a fierce ghost.
Of course, this was provided the opponent wasn’t a Sword Cultivator and didn’t possess a high-grade flying sword that was at the level of a spirit-communicating Magic Artifact.
The lethality of a Sword Cultivator was obvious.
Moreover, in Tan Shuchang’s estimation, a Sword Cultivator could force him to "reveal his true form," even with equal cultivation power.
Then, Tan Shuchang prepared to head to Luo State.
He had been hesitant before due to a lack of confidence, but now, unless it was Qiu Junlin’s father who took action, he could exterminate several others who came his way.
Even if the Vice Guild Masters themselves made a move, it would be the same!
This was the dominance of the Cross Calamity Immortal Scripture!
"Moreover, if it goes as I expect, the next time I enter an instance and head to the Guarded Ghost City, that General Huai will make things difficult for me, and the third Fierce Ghost Raising Lotus can begin..." Tan Shuchang’s thoughts led to a surge of emotion, and he became even more eager to act.
So, he took out his "journal."
This was a very special "journal," as with just a bit of refinement, it could become a lower realm Magic Artifact, its excellent material was evident.
The reason Tan Shuchang used this object for his journal was that if it were stolen, he could immediately erase all the writing on it!
Otherwise, he would not carry it with him everywhere.
Because it was necessary to nurture his aura to link with the object’s spiritual pulse for mental resonance.
Zixuan Dynasty, Emperor Yi Year, July, the 27th.
Next time I will definitely write.
