Slaying Demons: Starting with Upgrading my Calligraphy-Chapter 655 - 549: Sect Master Missing!

"Do you recognize it?"

Qi Xiu's expression grew tense, for the Hunyuan All-Encompassing Luminance was a Merit Treasure he had serendipitously formed many years ago.

At its emergence, it attracted the attention of countless malevolent glances.

Had it not been for Elder Shui's presence at the time, this treasure might never have been forged.

"I don't recognize it."

Retracting its gaze, the Flying Immortal Pot's Spirit denied directly without any hesitation.

"You..."

"No more questions. Whether you save this old man or not, it's the same answer.

I don't recognize it."

In contrast to the earlier hesitation, the Flying Immortal Pot's Spirit was evidently much more serious about this matter, stating its attitude outright without any room for negotiation.

After silently staring at the Flying Immortal Pot's Spirit for a moment, confirming that this Great Dao Divine Artifact had no intention of relenting, Qi Xiu lowered his eyes:

"Since you say you don't recognize it, then you don't recognize it."

Summoning the Hunyuan All-Encompassing Luminance, a Merit Treasure, Qi Xiu slightly moved his mind, and saw amidst the surrounding Merit Golden Light, blossoms of blazing Golden Lotus suddenly arose.

Merit Golden Lotus Fire!

Calling forth ninety-nine blossoms of Merit Golden Lotus Fire, Qi Xiu's sleeve waved, and each spark rapidly fell toward the Flying Immortal Pot's Spirit, or more precisely, toward the Heavenly Dao Poisonous Sores on its body.

Hiss—

"Ugh!"

At the mere touch of the Heavenly Dao Poisonous Sores with the Merit Golden Lotus Fire, wisps of variegated nine-colored smoke wafted out, causing the Flying Immortal Pot's Spirit to let out a suppressed groan of pain.

"Child, don't just stare blankly; these poisonous fogs contain the force of Heavenly Dao Backlash. Use this Medicine Pouch to collect them. Such Heavenly Dao Venom, even a Primordial Spirit True Honor would not dare to touch lightly.

In the future, whether for protection or crafting a Poison Pill, it would be extremely useful."

As if feeling it had been too cold in refusing Qi Xiu's inquiry regarding the Hunyuan All-Encompassing Luminance, the Flying Immortal Pot spoke up voluntarily and spat out an exquisitely crafted Medicine Pouch, seemingly woven from countless Silken Threads, suffused with a luminous halos flow.

"Alright."

Faced with the Flying Immortal Pot's Spirit's gesture of goodwill, Qi Xiu was not overly coy.

The secrets of the Hunyuan All-Encompassing Luminance likely involved some unmentionable presence; the robust refusal by the Flying Immortal Pot's Spirit might stem from valid reasons, and Qi Xiu was not one to hold such grudges.

Upon receiving the Medicine Pouch and unsealing its opening, a terrifying, overwhelming suction force gushed forth from within, its might so great that it caused Qi Xiu's robes to billow, even the surrounding Red Lotus Karmic Fire rippling with waves.

Such a tremendous force...

Astonished by the suction power of this Rainbow Medicine Pouch in his hand, Qi Xiu steadied himself and aimed the mouth of the pouch at the Heavenly Dao Poisonous Fog driven out by the Merit Golden Lotus Fire.

"Be careful not to let these poisonous fogs touch you, or your physical body will be obliterated in an instant." The Flying Immortal Pot's Spirit reminded from the side.

"Got it."

With a response, Qi Xiu's figure flickered indistinctly as his true self withdrew, allowing an External Incarnation to take his place, holding the Rainbow Medicine Pouch.

"The Great Saint's One Turns into Three Thousand Technique?"

Catching sight of Qi Xiu performing an External Incarnation, the Flying Immortal Pot's Spirit frowned, murmuring in astonishment.

This child's body contains Hunyuan, possessing Merit, and now even delves into the Great Saint's Dharma Gate. Could it be he is this era's...

If that truly is the case, then this old man has come upon a great Opportunity.

However, though following this lineage might lead to achievements akin to ascending the heavens, it could also end in utter ruin.

In just an instant, myriad thoughts flooded the Flying Immortal Pot's Spirit's mind, yet it quickly reached a resolution.

During Little Friend Li's era, I retreated.

Should I retreat again this time, I might as well seal myself in eternal slumber, never to awaken.

Enough, I've lived this long, it's time I learn from them and take a chance.

With decisiveness in its heart, a few changes appeared in the Flying Immortal Pot's Spirit's gaze toward Qi Xiu.

Yet, all of this occurred with utmost secrecy, unnoticed by Qi Xiu, whose attention remained focused on the drifting Heavenly Dao Poisonous Fogs.

Such malevolent poisonous fogs, even from such a distance, my physical body and spirit shudders minutely, as if sensing immense danger.

If even I feel this way, it attests to the formidable power contained within these fogs, how dreadful it must be.

Watching the Heavenly Dao Poisonous Fog slowly being absorbed into the Rainbow Medicine Pouch, Qi Xiu secretly clicked his tongue.

Such intense Heavenly Dao Backlash, and yet, the Flying Immortal Pot's Spirit endured for an entire era—truly worthy of a Great Dao Divine Artifact, a Primordial Spirit-level being.

As each Merit Golden Lotus Fire embedded into the Flying Immortal Pot's Spirit's body, the poisonous sores diminished, and its vitality and demeanor became increasingly robust and vigorous.

With the largest Heavenly Dao Poisonous Sore on its back eradicated by three blooms of Merit Golden Lotus Fire, all the Heavenly Dao Backlash within the Flying Immortal Pot's Spirit was entirely erased.

This Great Dao Divine Artifact finally escaped an era of suffering, regaining control of itself.

After the last wisp of Heavenly Dao Poisonous Fog was inhaled into the Medicine Pouch, the External Incarnation swiftly sealed the pouch's opening tightly, deeply fearing even the slightest leak of the contained poisonous fog.

"This old man is finally alive again."

Free from the torment of Heavenly Dao Backlash, the Flying Immortal Pot's Spirit's appearance returned to normal, transforming from its previously pitiable, emaciated state to that of a tall, kindly, and benevolent-looking white-bearded elder.

"Congratulations, old sir."

Stepping forward, Qi Xiu first extended his greetings to the Flying Immortal Pot's Spirit, and then handed over the Rainbow Medicine Pouch filled with Heavenly Dao Backlash.

"What is given out should not be taken back; keep this Medicine Pouch. You are a perceptive and daring child, and you might face an adversary you're unable to overcome someday; perhaps the Heavenly Dao Poisonous Fog within this pouch could assist you."
