Chapter 1843
Old Heavenly Lord Huangyuan
now.
Near that mid-grade sixth-tier market town, on the horizon.
Ling Pengyun appeared here silently.
'Interesting. I didn't expect that the remaining Void Refinement cultivator from the White Water Immortal Sect would hide in the market of a mid-stage Void Refinement power.'
'In that case, killing it will be quite difficult.'
'However...it's not entirely without a chance.'
Ling Pengyun frowned slightly after sensing that the Void Refinement cultivator from the White Water Immortal Sect was in the distant market.
Afterwards, he went straight to the market, deliberately releasing his aura of Void Refinement.
It was precisely because of this that the cultivators stationed in Huangshafang City were able to subtly detect his presence.
Soon enough, a phantom figure suddenly appeared in the market and stopped him.
The newcomer was an old man who looked like skin and bones, with a very poor complexion, a full head of white hair, and an aura of death about him. He clearly did not have much time left.
However, his cultivation level was exceptionally high, even reaching the peak of the third level of Void Refinement, just one step away from the middle level of Void Refinement.
Such a person is someone who can barely be considered a prominent figure even in the entire Qingxia Realm; he is a number one figure.
And this moment.
"Fellow Daoist, I am Huang Yuan, the Supreme Elder of Huangsha Immortal Sect, and also the Refining Void cultivator stationed in Huangsha Market of my sect."
"I have no ill intentions in coming here. I just want to register my information with you, fellow Daoist. This is the rule for entering my Huangsha Market. I hope you will do me a favor."
The old king of the yellow apes said politely.
His purpose in seeking Ling Pengyun's information was only one aspect; his main objective in coming here was to intimidate Ling Pengyun, a Void Refinement cultivator, and to demonstrate that his family was paying close attention to him, so as to prevent Ling Pengyun, a Void Refinement cultivator, from causing trouble without restraint after entering the market.
In addition, the Huangsha Immortal Sect is the mid-stage Void Refinement force behind that market. They are skilled in the art of beast taming and have raised many powerful spirit beasts.
It even has one or two Void Refinement Spirit Beasts, and even a mid-stage Void Refinement Yellow Sand Ape guarding it.
Those spirit beasts are extremely powerful, not only in terms of strength but also in their physical constitution.
In addition, he had several Void Refinement cultivators under his command, which gave him a fairly good reputation.
Not only is Huang Yuan Lao Tianjun highly skilled, but he is also a sixth-rank low-grade beast tamer with extremely high beast taming skills. In fact, in his early years, he even helped a veteran Huang Sha ape from the Huang Sha Immortal Sect who had reached the Nascent Soul stage successfully enter the early Void Refinement stage.
Therefore, he held a very high position within the Huangsha Immortal Sect.
His Taoist name, Huangyuan, is also related to the fact that he cultivated a Huangsha Ape in the early stage of the Void Refinement realm.
However, as he grew older, he gradually grew tired of fighting and began to think about retiring.
In addition, since he was a reliable person, the Huangsha Immortal Sect specially arranged for him to be stationed in Huangsha Market.
Furthermore, the Yellow Sand Immortal Sect also entrusted him with the Yellow Sand Ape that had been cultivated in the early stages of the Void Refinement realm, in case of any unforeseen circumstances.
"Fellow Daoist, you are too kind. I naturally understand such rules."
"And his Daoist name is Lingxiao. Furthermore, his purpose in coming here is not simply to buy spiritual items from the market under your sect, but to kill someone."
"I imagine you've heard about the battle at Hunyuan Immortal City. According to my investigation, a Void Refining cultivator from the Baishui Immortal Sect who participated in the attack on the Hunyuan lineage is currently hiding in the Huangsha Market under your sect's control." "That person is no good; in fact, his actions resemble those of an evil cultivator. I hope you and your sect will not obstruct my efforts to rid the people of this scourge and uphold righteousness."
Ling Pengyun said with a smile.
Immediately afterwards, he used both kindness and severity, deliberately displaying his formidable cultivation level.
In an instant, a powerful pressure swept out.
Even a veteran Void Refinement expert like Huang Yuan Laotianjun felt immense pressure from this.
But he quickly withdrew his cultivation and secretly handed over a batch of spiritual items worth dozens of sixth-order spirit crystals to the old Heavenly Lord Huangsha as a fee for acquiescence.
'This is truly a grand gesture, considering those spiritual items are undoubtedly valuable; ordinary cultivators at the Void Refinement stage would likely be unwilling to part with them so easily.'
"Furthermore, I truly never expected that the fellow Daoist before me would be the recently renowned Lingxiao... Fellow Daoist."
Upon hearing this, Kizaru was utterly shocked.
Even the way he looked at Ling Pengyun showed a newfound respect.
He also quickly retreated a few steps, intending to use the powerful sixth-grade low-level formation in the market and summon the Void Refining Yellow Sand Ape he had cultivated for the sect in his early years to fight the enemy.
In addition, he was backed by the Huangsha Immortal Sect and was based in the chaotic Huangsha Market.
In addition, Hunyuan Immortal City is not particularly far from here, and the previous battle in Hunyuan Immortal City caused quite a stir.
Therefore, he had heard about the battle of Hunyuan Immortal City well in advance.
If it weren't for his advanced age and declining strength, and the fact that Ling Pengyun was rumored to be incredibly powerful, far beyond the reach of ordinary people, he probably would have gone to observe and see if there was anything to gain.
Secondly, he was unaware of what Ling Pengyun had said about the remaining Void Refining cultivator of the White Water Immortal Sect hiding in Huangsha Market.
After all, since that remaining Void Refinement cultivator from the White Water Immortal Sect dared to hide in the Yellow Sand Market, he must have prepared various means to conceal his aura.
Indirectly, his aura became particularly obscure, and he even disguised himself as an ordinary Void Refinement cultivator.
Therefore, the old king Huangyuan had not been able to detect his true aura using the market array, and thus he was unaware of his whereabouts.
'Furthermore, judging from the aura of that Heavenly Lord Lingxiao, he is indeed as extraordinary as the rumors suggest. It's best to avoid provoking such a person if possible.'
'Otherwise, even if our sect is quite strong, I'm afraid we'll still have a major headache.'
Old Lord Huangyuan was particularly wary of Ling Pengyun.
Furthermore, the actions of the White Water Immortal Sect in the past were indeed those of evil cultivators.
Under such circumstances, even if the Huangsha Immortal Sect had some business dealings with the Baishui Immortal Sect in the past, the Huangsha Immortal Sect could not provide protection.
Otherwise, if this matter gets out, it might damage the reputation of Huangsha Market and even affect the market's future business.
After all, who would dare to buy or sell spiritual items in a market where evil cultivators are hiding?
In addition, Ling Pengyun offered a considerable amount of benefits.
Therefore, Huang Yuan Lao Tianjun immediately contacted the higher-ups of Huangsha Immortal Sect, and they ultimately reached a consensus to let Ling Pengyun kill the remaining Void Refinement cultivators of Baishui Immortal Sect.
But they also have one condition.
That meant Ling Pengyun had to deal with the remaining Void Refinement cultivator from the White Water Immortal Sect quietly, lest the matter escalate. (End of Chapter)
