Cultivation! My Augmented Statuses Have Unlimited Duration

Chapter 313: No Matter How Bad It Is, It’s Only Like This

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Only people who walked here all year round could remember this route. Every set distance, a Desolate Poison Mushroom would be planted to prevent the local demon beasts from gathering here.

Every poisonous mushroom like this was nurtured by a former human. It was a path that the locals used their lives to pave for their descendants.

In this desert, it was best not to fly.

Coupled with the two methods of the python and poisonous mushrooms and the experienced snake users, they could advance here relatively safely.

In this kind of wasteland, the sky always darkened especially quickly. In the day, all the creatures were disguised on the ground and did not move. At night, it was the prelude to their party.

All kinds of wolf howls and beast roars sounded in the wilderness. Fortunately, they followed those snake people and found a Desolate Poison Mushroom before the sun set.

Staying under the mushroom but not lighting a bonfire, if something approached, as long as they gently touched the mushroom, it could scare away most of the danger.

However, the effects of the poisonous spores were only targeted at external threats. It was helpless against internal dangers.

“Hey, is that true?”

“It’s true! I saw it with my own eyes. I was lying on the ground at that time. That kid’s fire technique was ridiculously powerful. A large group of flying ants were burned away by him in one move.”

“The color of his spirit fire is also very different from ordinary spirit fire. I suspect that he definitely has a special fire seed on him!”

“I heard that the Myriad Slaughter Sect has recently placed great importance on fire-attribute spiritual root cultivators. If we can obtain the strange flame, us brothers might be able to make a name for ourselves in the Myriad Slaughter Sect.”

“How is it? Do you want to do it?”

“Hehe, such a good fat sheep is right in front of us. That’s our opportunity.”

There were not many good people among the rogue cultivators who could gather here. Even on the way, some people could not help but have ill intentions.

A few cultivators conversed in a certain dialect for a while before dispersing as if they had returned to their original place to lie on the ground and nap.

However, there was immediately a rustling sound that mixed into the cold wind of the desert.

A palm-sized spider crawled out from a cultivator’s sleeve.

As the spider walked, the wind stopped. The hunting instinct engraved in its genes made it quietly approach its target.

Soon, the spider crawled up Jiang Li’s body from the rock ground and covered its face.

“Hmph, he can even sleep like this. He’s indeed a rookie.”

The cultivator lying on the ground suddenly pulled the spider silk in his hand, pulling back the spider that was crawling on Jiang Li’s mask. Even Jiang Li’s mask was pulled off.

Then, another person flicked a stone out from his hand and struck the Desolate Poison Mushroom that was close by.

Stimulated, the poisonous mushroom immediately spat out a large amount of spores from the holes in its body.

The cultivators who were sitting or lying down to rest instantly retreated. Even if they had already taken anti-poison measures, no one wanted to stay in such a dense poisonous spore powder.

Only the few people who had just had ill intentions did not retreat but pounced towards Jiang Li who was still within the range of the spore powder.

The other travelers who were forced back by the spore powder were quite angry. Seeing this scene, they already understood what those people wanted to do.

It was nothing more than trying to use the poison of the Poison Mushroom to directly knock Jiang Li down and then kill him for it.

This kind of behavior was actually quite old-fashioned in this wilderness.

However, robbery was one thing, but injuring others was another.

When the few fellows inside came out, the travelers outside would probably settle the score with them.

The wind on the stone wasteland quickly blew away the spreading spore dust.

However, only Jiang Li appeared before them, and his body was completely free of dust.

The few villains who had launched the attack had already disappeared without a trace.

Jiang Li was actually in a good mood now. Among the few people who attacked him earlier, one of them happened to have a fire attribute spiritual root attribute.

He was just worrying about casually fabricating a name and background that would easily be seen through by the Myriad Slaughter Sect when these guys came to send him off.

Fire Whip Niu Yi’er, this was such a casual name.

Jiang Li put on the mask again and used the appearance changing technique he obtained by accident all those years ago. After changing his appearance, he sat cross-legged back down.

The others had the intention to find Jiang Li to vent their anger.

However, the scene just now indicated that this person was obviously not to be trifled with. rogue cultivators like them were the best at judging the situation, so no one dared to come up and court death for the time being.

Instead, a man placed a bottle of pills beside him.

“This medicine can detoxify the mushroom poison.”

After that person finished speaking, he walked away and did not spare Jiang Li another glance.

Jiang Li put away the bottle of pills. He did not consume it nor did he refuse.

The next day, the group continued on their journey as usual. No one cared about the disappeared scumbags.

As the distance approached, the number of demon beast monsters in the surrounding wilderness decreased.

From time to time, the patrolling cultivators of the Myriad Slaughter Sect would appear.

Several open paths finally appeared ahead.

This kind of product under the order of civilization meant that they had already entered the control area of Blackstone City.

The nearby demon beasts had already been cleaned up by the local cultivators.

However, after the Myriad Slaughter Sect took over Blackstone City, everything here had changed slightly.

On the side of the road, there was a wooden pole erected every 100 feet.

On each wooden pole, there was the corpse of a young girl. They were in a dancing posture.

They closed their eyes and pointed forward elegantly. This was actually a road sign made of a human girl.

“Heh, how beautiful. As expected of the Myriad Slaughter Sect.”

This was the first time Jiang Li had seen such a scene, and he could not help but frown.

However, the rogue cultivators beside him were clearly experienced and knowledgeable. They might have seen actions ten times worse than this.

Therefore, they did not feel any discomfort when he saw it.

Some people were full of praise for this decoration.

This was the true appearance of the cultivation world of the Eastern Region.

The Eastern Region of the Azure Cloud Continent was very large. The situation in each region was different. The attitude of cultivators to mortals was also vastly different.

For example, under the hard work of the seniors of the sect, the righteous path alliance completely defeated the demonic cultivators and allowed the humans in that region to live peacefully.

However, that kind of peace had actually only lasted for more than a hundred years. To the older cultivators, the chaos back then was like a day away.

As for the other regions of the Eastern Region, some had established peaceful order like the Great Mountain Region.

However, other than that, there were also many places where righteous and demonic existences coexisted. Some simply said that demonic cultivators had already eliminated righteous sects and established sinful places, causing all living beings to be in deep trouble.

For example, the current cultivation world of the Rock Mountain Range.

Some of the higher-ups of the Divine Judgment Hall might have long wanted to eliminate these poisonous tumors.

However, there were actually many organizations like the Myriad Slaughter Sect.

If they really fought, it would definitely cause serious internal conflict.

Now, the Armored Trolls were staring covetously at them. If the Eastern Region consumed a large amount of its strength, the entire Eastern Region might fall to a state that was even more terrifying than being ruled by demonic cultivators.

Therefore, the Divine Judgment Hall did not dare to act rashly.

It was only because of this group of demonic cultivators that they were arrogant and domineering in the Eastern Region for so many years.

“Are you all new here? Go over there and line up to register.”

Soon, a pair of Myriad Slaughter Sect cultivators landed from the sky and stopped them.

After knowing their goal, he was no longer surprised. He pointed them in a direction and rose into the sky to leave.

There was actually a line outside the huge Blackstone City. The line was quite long.

It could be seen how popular the Myriad Slaughter Demon Sect was among this group of rogue cultivators.

“Those with fire attribute spiritual roots, register here! Prioritize recruitment!”

“If you have any specialties, stand here and register yourself!”

After Jiang Li approached, he discovered that the Myriad Slaughter Sect had even made a certain classification when recruiting new blood.

To ordinary cultivators, as long as their cultivation level was above the Foundation Establishment realm, they had already reached the lowest recruitment criteria of the Myriad Slaughter Sect.

In any case, being cannon fodder was more or less enough.

Among them, the most ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivators had the most number of people and the longest line.

Then, there were Core Formation cultivators. The treatment for each realm was different.

Apart from that, the Myriad Slaughter Sect also focused on recruiting fire-attribute spiritual root cultivators and sub-occupation cultivators.

Alchemy, weapon refinement, talisman array formations, artistic sword cultivators, or those who had grasped some kind of heaven and earth fire and special abilities could all enjoy better treatment from the Myriad Slaughter Sect.

This kind of talent that could create benefits at any time was naturally a rare commodity everywhere.

Jiang Li stood behind a few rows and considered for a moment.

With the style of the Myriad Slaughter Sect, if he became their lackey, he would be tasked to kill people everywhere.

Even if it was only a temporary disguise, Jiang Li did not want to help them do this.

He did not know how to refine pills or weapons, but he was an expert in runes and array formations. He was a special talent that the other party had specially recruited.

In addition, the Myriad Slaughter Sect was still recruiting fire-attribute cultivators. No matter from which angle, Jiang Li’s Liquor Fire Sword Song could be considered outstanding.

He even possessed the Human Fire from the Star Tower.

Therefore, it should be more suitable to choose these two directions.

After thinking for a moment, Jiang Li still chose the more reliable array talisman master team.

There were clearly fewer cultivators lining up here.

In contrast, checks are stricter.

Jiang Li filled in his basic form according to the fire attribute cultivator he had captured earlier and was brought into a temporary rune workshop.

There were more than a hundred rune tables in this room. Before the tables, many cultivators dressed like rogue cultivators were working hard, doing everything they could.

His arrival did not attract anyone’s attention.

Jiang Li casually found a rune table and placed a complete rune array formation in front of him.

In addition, there was an hourglass, a carving knife, and ten standard-sized blank wooden planks.

The method of testing was obvious.

He needed to analyze the runes in the array formation within the designated time and then draw one himself.

Finally, with the spirit stones embedded, if the array formation could run and the accuracy was more than 80%, it would be considered a pass.

Jiang Li only took a glance and already recognized the array formation in front of him. It was a slightly modified rock formation that could compress ordinary soil into rocks.

It was a very basic entry-level array formation.

As long as one had received a few years of orthodox teaching of array talismans, there was almost no possibility of failure when copying an array pattern of this level.

To Alliance Leader Jiang Li, this was child’s play.

However, it was normal for the test to be simple.

This was because the target of this test was a rogue cultivator.

Those rogue cultivators basically held a secret manual of unknown origins and studied it until they died.

Some had studied it for more than ten years but still did not know much.

Some were talented and smart. They really understood everything.

It was inevitable that there would be many mistakes in his understanding and habits. This was the result of a closed door cultivator.

Therefore, what Jiang Li thought was a simple test was actually a rather serious test for these rogue cultivators.

Looking at their nervous sweat, Jiang Li thanked his sect again in his heart.

He picked up the carving knife and moved quickly. In just a moment, smooth lines covered the entire wooden board. A formation diagram had been completed.

An examiner of the Myriad Slaughter Sect above revealed a surprised expression when he saw Jiang Li’s technique being so skilled.

He came down in surprise and prepared to check.

However, Jiang Li suddenly realized something. A trace of Liquor Fire spiritual qi surged into his hand and instantly lit up the wooden board in his hand.

Halfway through, the examiner saw the rising flames and thought that Jiang Li had been too anxious and made the most primitive mistake.

Shaking his head in disappointment, he continued to observe the other candidates.

Jiang Li almost made a mistake while currently pretending to be a rogue cultivator. Look at the standards of these fellows around him.

If he performed too well and perfectly, there was no benefit in actuality.

Instead, it might arouse suspicion or attention.

To him, who wanted to stir up trouble secretly, these were things that he had to avoid as much as possible.

Therefore, when he did it again, he deliberately chose a saber-wielding posture that was neither professional nor comfortable. When he was carving, he deliberately slowed down and even showed a slight problem at every similar point.

He felt that the standard of an ordinary cultivator’s array formation could only be this bad.

This should suit his skills as a rogue cultivator.

The effect of this array formation would be much worse. It looked like there was an irregular flaw in his common knowledge technique. This kind of problem often happened to rogue cultivators without guidance.

However, even so, after he handed over the wooden board, he naturally received the examiner’s praise.

“Niu Yi’er? Not bad, not bad. You have a lot of potential.”

Amongst this batch of array talisman masters who were participating in the test, Jiang Li who tried his best to make himself clumsy was still at a level that stood out from the crowd.

Through this kind of recruitment, there was naturally no problem.

He was forced to change into a dirty work robe.

He and a few other cultivators who had passed were brought to a refinement ground that was ablaze.

The temperature was very high here. A large number of cultivators were moving supplies non-stop, smelting metal, and building a huge thing.

This thing seemed to be a huge cauldron that had built 80-90% of the progress and was about to be completed.

However, from its appearance, it looked sinister and should not be a righteous thing.
