Tainted will

The dark clouds dispersed in the sky, as pillars of light shone through the clouds, landing on the wet earth.

The sky was vast and huge, a truly grand sight.

Two individuals were hovering in the sky, the atmosphere was slightly tense.

"Yi Yun, still thinking about that assassination? Hahahaha, what is there to worry about? You are alive, aren't you? Don't fret too much, with me here they can't do anything." Teng Zhe urged with his rough voice.

Bai Ming snorted, looking at Teng Zhe coldly, "What have you achieved? how many more assassinations do you want? Letting someone sneak in here and leave as they wish, aren't you as a supreme mortal realm expert ashamed at all?"

Teng Zhe tried to alleviate the atmosphere: "Sigh, don't be angry Yi Yun..."

But before he finished, Bai Ming interrupted him, "Sigh, If this goes on I don't think I'll be able to cultivate peacefully. Maybe this isn't a good idea after all." Saying this Bai Ming showed a troubled expression.

Teng Zhe was about to speak, but Bai Ming continued his chatter, "My sect points have completely run dry, and earning sect points by accepting missions is just suicidal. I was going to earn sect points by making a few formations, even though it was time-consuming it was a feasible method. But now I know even that isn't the right way, the process of creating formations requires me to completely invest both my concentration and divine sense into it, and during that period I will be vulnerable to assassination. Looks like I will be unable to live up to your expectations lord, I am deeply pained by this thought."

Bai Ming's expressions and tone perfectly showcased his top-notch acting skills, if Teng Zhe didn't know Bai Ming any better, he might have truly believed him, but now his words sounded like bitter mockery and sarcasm to his ears.

Teng Zhe's eyes flashed, he didn't immediately reply but thought deeply, 'Yi Yun, oh Yi Yun. You want to eat the pie at my expense, but this is to be expected from you. You are aware of the fact that I know your thoughts but I don't have a choice in this matter, I need you to get powerful enough to secure that tier-8 spirit herb 'violet stellar grass'. And what you said previously was also true, creating formations will just consume too much time. It doesn't matter, I'll help you once again. But once everything is over I'll be sure to refine you into a mindless puppet, then you can repay me by serving my Teng City for the rest of eternity.'

Using the opportunity of the assassination, Bai Ming indirectly demanded some 'trauma recovery fees',

Although he despised this, Teng Zhe couldn't help but admire this brat as well.

Teng Zhe believed that Bai Ming's actions were correct. If it was him in that position, he would have done the same thing.

Teng Zhe quickly fulfilled Bai Ming's request by transferring another 800,000 sect points and he also handed him a few life-saving treasures, just in case.

Teng Zhe stared Bai Ming in the eye and gloomily said, "Little guy, this is the second time I have helped you. No matter what misunderstanding we have had in the past, this should be more than enough to make up for it. I hope that when you enter the Eccentric Ancestor's land, you won't try any unnecessary scheming!"

Teng Zhe had some understanding of Bai Ming after many encounters with him. This Yi Yun was a good seed for demonic cultivation, this was his initial take on Bai Ming.

In the Teng city, the brat dared to openly massacre while knowing full well that the City lord was closely watching him. It could be said that this person was very bold and ruthless.

If those were the only things, then he wouldn't really be much, but this person even dared to stand his ground against a supreme mortal realm expert without even batting an eye. He didn't show a hint of panic. This showed just how calm and determined he was.please visit

Not to mention he somehow even managed to squeeze out benefits from him, he was able to firmly grasp the situation and benefit from it, This person was a true schemer.

This person was ruthless, bold, and decisive. He was also very fearless, cunning, determined, and exceptionally crafty.

In the end, the only words the Teng Zhe had that could describe Bai Ming were "as sly as a fox and bold as a tiger."

Bai Ming's expression didn't change even after receiving a huge sum of sect points, he straightforwardly asked, "Who is this person targeting us? And what exactly is this Eccentric Ancestors Land? And why is this spirit herb of such importance to you?"

Teng Zhe pondered for a moment before he deeply looked at Bai Ming, He slowly said, "Forget it. Since we have already reached this stage, it's fine to tell you. Mystic realms are miniature spaces or specifically separate worlds of their own. Because human footmarks were scarce and essence energy was abundant in these separate spaces, it tends to give birth to many natural treasures. Within the azure planet's boundaries they are all kinds of mystic realms, and these mystic realms are all controlled by the various great sects. At times there would be new mystic realms discovered, and at that time the sects would either engage in bloody wars or settle it through competitions to gain ownership over these unknown mystic realms. Extremely few humans ever existed in mystic realms. But there were many demonic beasts as well as naturally formed dangers. Exploring mystic realms was an extremely perilous task! And this Mystic realm was previously owned by that mad researcher, Tian Ji. And is said to have his true inheritance."

Tian Ji, just like his title Eccentric Ancestor was eccentric both in body and soul. His thirst for knowledge knew no bounds, it was rumored that during the beginning of his cultivation journey to just gain a complete understanding of a tier-4 pill he had painstakingly kneeled outside a tier-6 alchemist's house for twenty-eight months straight without any meals or a drop of water. Later, the same alchemist not only did he teach Tian Ji about that tier-4 spirit pill but moved by Tian Ji's perseverance he also took him as a personal disciple.

In his middle years, he had already turned into a devil and butchered millions of people, both mortals and cultivators alike in the Northern Azure to learn the profundities of the killing path.

But the reason he was known as the eccentric ancestor was because he was able to get past the normal limitations of life span. Typically, a cultivator's lifespan before reaching the supreme mortal realm was approximately around hundred-twenty years. After one achieves the supreme mortal realm, they could at most live up to 220 years of age. Only when one reaches the Fate Grasping realm could one live up to 500 years of age. But It was rumored that the Eccentric Ancestor who had only attained False God Realm cultivation base in his lifetime had already lived for 400 years. It was due to this he had the term 'ancestor' incorporated into his moniker.

"Fine, you can continue," Bai Ming absorbed all the information before he said plainly.

"As for the person targeting us, he is one of the fifteen elders of the inner sect, Elder Zhou Yi. A lighting path great grandmaster. You don't have to worry too much about him, you just need to be careful of his disciples Su Yang and Su Yin, the blessed twins of heaven, and I have recently gotten news regarding him secretly training another brat. These are the things you need to focus on."

"Don't worry I will also arrange helpers for you, once you enter the mystic realm use them as fit, discard them if they are worthless. It's totally up to you, about the spirit herb...there is no need for you to know anything, I'll tell you its location and the procedure of storing it, remember not to spread the word about its existence or I'll be the one to see you off from this world." In the end, Teng Zhe's voice was filled with bone-chilling killing intent. His words were said in an unquestionable tone and had to be followed rightfully.

"Yes, I understand." Bai Ming didn't dare pursue it anymore, he was perfectly aware of when to advance or retreat. And now he needed to take a step back, if he didn't the consequences would be detrimental.

Teng Zhe's gaze was piercing, trying to see through Bai Ming.

The Violet stellar grass was just too important for him. His chances of advancing to the divine astral realm in this lifetime hinged on this spirit herb and the only other person who was aware of the existence of this spirit herb in the mystic realm was Zhou Yi.

Side by side, both Teng Zhe and Zhou Yi had once ventured into the mystic realm hundred years ago during the previous opening of the mystic realm. Due to a lucky encounter, both of them had obtained a pill recipe that provided them a 50% chance of breaking through to the divine astral realm. To refine the 'seeking astral pill' the material requirements were vast, but with their status and terrifying strength, it was achievable. The only obstacle standing in their path to success was the Violet stellar grass which was considered an extinct spirit herb, but fortunately, both of them had already made arrangements for it during their last visit to the mystic realm.

At that time both of them had found this spirit herb after following the instructions written in the pill recipe, but at the time the spirit herb had still not matured and so they could only protect the spirit herb till the end of their time in the mystic realm and leave behind innumerous treasures to protect this spirit herb till the next opening of the mystic realm.
