Slaying Demons: Starting with Upgrading my Calligraphy-Chapter 410 - 369: The Primordial Spirit Bestows a Treasure!

Chapter 410: Chapter 369: The Primordial Spirit Bestows a Treasure!

The ocean waves rose and fell, white foam splashing high amidst the crashing sounds.

A secluded wooden hut, built of grass and wood, its roof eaves hung with countless small, green and white sea conchs, stood on this divinely marvelous seaside.

Around the coast, hundreds of flat boats were anchored, bobbing with the water and making thumping collision noises.

Sitting quietly on a wooden deck facing the sea was a graceful woman in a pale dress, her long hair cascading like a waterfall, her whole being suffused with an air of refined elegance. Her eyes were fixed on the vast ocean as if deep in thought.

Her beauty was so surreal it almost didn’t seem to belong to this world, as if she could ascend to the heavens at any moment.

Yet, upon closer inspection, one couldn’t help but feel a boundless respect welling up inside. This feeling inspired an involuntary sense of inferiority and smallness, making one wish to prostrate themselves in submission and worship.

"Palace Master, it’s great news, Palace Master!"

The sound of ShenLung Zi’s beaming laughter interrupted the woman’s contemplation. She slowly turned, her azure eyes, like the purest crystals, faintly exuding an ethereal, exquisite charm.

"I already know. I met Sect Master Dongfang once; he is a rare talent. To think that his disciple would also be so extraordinary. The conduct of the Shenxiao Sect truly is exceptional."

Before ShenLung Zi could even speak, the woman, who seemed like an Immortal descended to the mortal realm, preempted him, already aware of the situation.

"The Demonic Devouring Inheritance is an extraordinary treasure. It is rare for someone to forsake such an inheritance for the sake of the greater world; such a temperament is not something ordinary people possess.

"Although if the curse within the Evernight Ancient Kingdom were to erupt, Qinlong Province would not be the only place to suffer.

"But since the Evernight Ancient Kingdom is located in this province, if the curse erupts, our province will bear the brunt of it.

"For this kindness, I offer thanks on behalf of all living beings in Qinlong Province."

The woman nodded slightly at Qi Xiu.

"This is our Palace Master, Moon Sea True Venerable," ShenLung Zi whispered, reminding him quietly.

True Venerable?

Hearing that the woman before him was a Primordial Spirit Boss, Qi Xiu clasped his hands in return; he wasn’t so arrogant as to disregard the majesty of such an expert.

"You have done a great service to Qinlong Province, and I will not treat you unfairly. I observe a dark aura swirling around your brow, your Xuan Palace deeply locked, and a red light seated in your destiny. You have cultivated the Spiritual Embryo Miraculous Body at the Blood-Stained Peak. By the looks of it, your Dao Body Tribulation must be approaching."

With one sentence from Moon Sea True Venerable, the three people below were all stunned.

His Dao Body Tribulation was already approaching? He had only just cultivated the Spiritual Embryo Miraculous Body and had yet to integrate his Great Dao into it. How could the tribulation be coming so soon? Qi Xiu was shocked.

ShenLung Zi and Ye Hongying, on the other hand, were amazed. This unremarkable young Daoist was actually at the Blood-Stained Peak, just one step away from achieving the Dao Body Realm and becoming a prodigy!

"Tsk, tsk, I really underestimated you before."

With a click of his tongue, ShenLung Zi playfully bumped Qi Xiu’s shoulder. But in the next instant, he noticed the young Daoist beside him looked alarmingly grave.

"Hey, kid, no need to be so nervous. A Dao Body Tribulation isn’t a guaranteed death sentence. You’re a Shenxiao Sect member. If worse comes to worst, just go back to your sect and ask your Sect Master to act as your protector during the tribulation. It won’t harm you," ShenLung Zi said, attempting to comfort him, as he thought Qi Xiu was needlessly scaring himself.

What this Dao Expert did not know was that the difficulty of Qi Xiu’s Dao Body Tribulation was immense. It had been personally certified by a True Dragon’s attendant and the Water God of Dianchuan.

It was terrifyingly perilous, practically a sentence of certain death.

At this moment, Qi Xiu felt he wasn’t fully prepared. If the tribulation were to descend rashly, the likelihood of his demise, his Dao vanishing, would be very high.

"Seeing your expression, it seems you are not yet confident about overcoming the tribulation. Coincidentally, I have something for you that can help delay its arrival."

Catching every change in Qi Xiu’s expression, Moon Sea True Venerable chuckled softly and waved her hand. A hazy glow, robust and simple like moonlight, landed in Qi Xiu’s palm.

As the glow receded, a Taoist robe that seemed woven from moonlight itself appeared.

This Taoist robe, with its broad sleeves, faintly emanated a cool aura, while its surface displayed intricate and ancient cloud patterns.

"The Clear Moon Cloud Robe. I wove this in my leisure time using hidden moonlight. Wearing it can temporarily prevent the tribulation’s aura from finding you.

"The Taoist robe itself is also a magical treasure of decent quality. I haven’t consecrated it since weaving it, so it remains without an owner. Today, it seems just right to give to you.

"Consecrate and nurture it well; it will be of great use to you." Moon Sea True Venerable slowly explained the Taoist robe’s purpose.

Truly worthy of a Primordial Spirit Boss, to bestow a magical treasure so casually.

Looking down at the Clear Moon Cloud Robe in his hands, Qi Xiu exhaled a breath of Mixed Element Qi. Instantly, the Taoist robe, seemingly made of condensed moonlight, was upon his body.

As soon as the Taoist robe was donned, ShenLung Zi and Ye Hongying both gasped in unison.

Qi Xiu’s demeanor was already extraordinary. Enhanced by the transcendent aura of the Hunyuan Myriad Laws Immortal Body and framed by the Clear Moon Cloud Robe, he looked like an Exiled Immortal.

Even Ye Hongying, watching from the side, couldn’t help but drool, a glistening trail forming.

It’s too conspicuous.

Looking at the Taoist robe, adorned with billowing clouds and circulating moonlight, Qi Xiu frowned slightly. With a thought, the surrounding phenomena instantly retracted and dissipated, the robe transforming into an ordinary-looking, pale white Taoist robe.

This is much more comfortable.

Pleased, Qi Xiu nodded and raised his hands in thanks to Moon Sea True Venerable. "Thank you for the magical treasure, True Venerable. This junior is deeply grateful."

"There’s no need for such formality. Your merit far exceeds the value of this magical treasure; it’s just that I currently have nothing else to bestow upon you."
