Chapter 892 Good Fortune Added, An Unexpected Encounter with a Loli
Chapter 892 Good Fortune Added, An Unexpected Encounter with a Loli
"Your Majesty, I am truly ashamed that my judgment is inferior to that of the Imperial Preceptor."
"What are you saying, Prime Minister Ye? I only benefited from the array formation. As for this kid from Wuyang City, he may have been able to play the role of the oriole once, but I don't know if he will be able to do it a second time."
The Imperial Advisor and Ye nodded to each other, both with humble expressions.
The Holy Emperor laughed heartily: "That's right, I'm starting to get curious too. The Imperial Advisor should pay more attention to him, but there's no need to focus on him too much. After all, there are many other outstanding talents, and we shouldn't favor one over the other."
"nature."
With a thought, the Imperial Preceptor immediately shifted the light screen to the perspective of others.
At this moment, Ye Kang put away all the array plates and flew directly out of the bamboo forest.
Although the bamboo forest was vast, the Life-Chasing Sable's fur showed no further reaction, indicating that no other demons were hiding within it.
Ye Kang didn't care, and randomly chose a direction to search along the way.
"The Heavenly Dharma Assembly is a good opportunity. The Demon Emperor has plenty of resources. I need to take this opportunity to acquire more top-quality materials and undergo Nirvana several more times. Unfortunately, my comprehension is too low, so I need to think of another way."
Ye Kang quickly assessed the current situation. For him, rankings were still important, but this was no longer the most important thing.
The key is to seize this legitimate opportunity to gather all the precious materials and, incidentally, condense the Immortal Demon Records a few more times.
The spiritual essence of the ice frog had been absorbed by the Immortal Demon Record. Now, the pages turned, and a brand new record was completed.
"The Ice Frog is a natural-born spirit with eight supernatural powers. It specializes in ice magic and has extremely strong recovery ability."
After Ye Kang quickly read through the introduction, he noticed the image of the Frog in the Ice below it, and his eyes lit up.
This is the domineering nature of the Immortal Demon Compendium: it only absorbs the spiritual essence of demons and transforms it into a compendium.
Theoretically speaking, if Ye Kang were to acquire great supernatural powers one day, he could directly enlighten these spiritual beings and revive them.
This page also brought Ye Kang a huge boost.
His physical strength naturally surged again, far surpassing all mid-stage demon emperors. If it were a martial artist's physical cultivation, even a late-stage Nirvana cultivator might not be his match.
Of course, in terms of physical body alone, Ye Kang's biggest deficiency compared to his later stages was in his spiritual cultivation.
In addition, the supernatural powers of the Ice Frog also spread, giving Ye Kang a second demonic ability similar to supernatural powers.
Cold resistance.
Theoretically speaking, martial artists who cultivate the way of ice are inherently at a disadvantage in front of him.
Because ordinary cold air poses no threat to him anymore.
"Thanks to the ice frog, I feel like my luck has improved a lot!"
Ye Kang grinned; this was the biggest gain of the trip.
Having practiced the Nine Revolutions Auspicious Star Technique, Ye Kang was extremely sensitive to good fortune.
As soon as the catalog was completed, he felt as if another stroke of good fortune had descended upon him, and it was a permanent blessing, adding another stroke of good fortune to his Nine Revolutions Auspicious Star Technique.
This is an extremely beneficial opportunity, one that is rare and hard to come by.
Good fortune is elusive and intangible; one usually feels nothing about it, but when it truly arrives, it can far surpass that of others.
For example, Ye Kang was just walking around in the Purple Mist Zone when he found the Demon-Suppressing Tower, a divine weapon that had reached the Dao.
Although most of the good fortune is due to the Carp God, who can say that it has nothing to do with his own bit of good luck?
A little more now will only bring greater benefits in the future.
"It must be because of my innate identity as a demon spirit that I am born with good fortune, which I have inherited to some extent. It seems that my best target should be those demon emperors with special bloodlines."
Ye Kang made up his mind to find more special demon emperors, whether they were immortal demon records or used as precious materials, there might be unexpected surprises.
Another quarter of an hour passed, and Ye Kang still hadn't encountered any demons, but instead encountered a martial artist.
Moreover, he is an extremely interesting martial artist.
The other person was about 1.6 meters tall, with a loli-like face, huge twin ponytails, wearing awkward bright armor, and carrying a huge bronze hammer on her back, which was longer than her.
Ye Kang was naturally familiar with such an awkward outfit.
As the head of the academy specifically mentioned before, one of the top ten is the number one person from Wuyue City, whose cultivation level of the sixth rank is comparable to that of the seventh rank Pang Jinchui.
When Ye Kang saw her, this girl was raising a hammer and violently smashing the head of a third-level demon king.
In front of Ye Kang, Pang Jinchui calmly absorbed the demon soul. There were already four marks on her arm, two more than Ye Kang.
As expected of someone in the top ten, their fighting strength is terrifying.
Ye Kang did not run away, but watched the scene from afar. The latter naturally noticed his presence as well. After absorbing the demon soul mark, Pang Jinchui calmly looked over.
The two met and then landed in the same place.
On Ye Kang's arm.
This guy isn't trying to steal it too, is he...?
Ye Kang was feeling uneasy when he saw Pang Jinchui turn his gaze away and say in a thick Northeastern accent, "I have no interest in stealing other people's spoils."
Ye Kang was stunned for a moment, then quickly bowed and prepared to leave.
Unexpectedly, the system voice suddenly sounded.
【Ding】
[Mission Issued: Tiger-Slaying Hero]
[Mission Requirements: Follow Pang Jinchui and be the first to end the Three-Eyed Tiger King's third life]
[Task Reward: 3000000 Comprehension Points]
"Another mission! Another three million!"
Without hesitation, Ye Kang immediately changed his expression and said with a smile, "So it is Miss Pang from Wuyue City. I am Ye Kang from Wuyang City. I have long admired Miss Pang's name. Meeting you today, I can see that you are indeed majestic and extraordinary, inspiring my respect."
Whoever she is, it's always good to flatter her first.
However, the other party's reaction was beyond Ye Kang's expectations. Pang Jinchui's expression was solemn, and he remained motionless, as if he was pondering Ye Kang's words.
A moment later, a blush appeared on her face.
Are you confessing your feelings?
puff!
Ye Kang's eyes almost popped out of their sockets from that sentence. What kind of thought process did this guy have!
He quickly shook his head: "Miss Pang, you misunderstand! It's just a matter of admiration and wanting to befriend her. I have absolutely no improper thoughts!"
Pang Jinchui didn't feel embarrassed at all, but said seriously, "I see. I can't accept your confession. My master doesn't allow me to find a partner too early."
"I already said it wasn't a confession! What are you explaining?!"
"That's good. But you're not allowed to confess your feelings to me, or I won't accept it."
"..."
Ye Kang decided to change the subject and said, "I am of low strength, but I have a skill in setting up formations. If Miss Pang does not mind, I am willing to follow Miss Pang and kill demons together."
Pang Jinchui fell into thought again.
"You're too weak, there's no need."
"Wait! We can cooperate and benefit each other!"
How can you prove you can sleep with me?
"I would like to demonstrate the art of formations to Miss Pang."
"Okay, but let's get straight to actual combat. There's still a demon ahead. I'll trust you if you take care of him."
Pang Jinchui pointed southeast, and sure enough, a demonic aura could be seen rising into the sky from afar.
This is not because the demons are arrogant, but because some demons are just like that by nature. They don't know how to hide their demonic aura and can only keep fleeing.
Ye Kang didn't expect that this guy would actually give him a mark he had already obtained. It seems that he is absolutely confident in his strength and is not worried about not being able to get it.
Ye Kang didn't hesitate and immediately flew over.
The demonic aura clearly sensed the approaching two people and immediately issued a warning, saying in a rough voice, "Humans! Spare me, and I will reward you with a fortuitous opportunity!"
Ye Kang frowned, and the Entangling Moon Silk was secretly activated. At the same time, he asked, "Is what you say true?"
“It’s absolutely true! My true form is a mutated demonic hound, and my innate supernatural ability is an unparalleled sense of smell. I can smell all kinds of scents. I just smelled the location of a treasure. If you release me, I will tell you!”
At this moment, Ye Kang had also grasped the opponent's strength. He was also a third-level demon emperor, but because his strength had declined, he was probably no match for a second-level martial artist. That was why the opponent offered up his treasures and begged for mercy without hesitation.
Ye Kang nodded: "I believe you."
"Then thank you very much." The mutated demonic dog breathed a sigh of relief and was about to speak again when suddenly, the surrounding air froze instantly, and then countless spider silks flew out, weaving a trapping array in an instant.
The mutated demonic dog was immediately horrified: "You beast! You lied to me!"
His response was to countless flames rising from the trapped formation. Ye Kang no longer needed to set up the Four Symbols Heavenly Demon Formation in advance; he could do it effortlessly.
He could instantly cast the formation, and due to his improved cultivation level, the formation's power had increased several levels.
It might not be enough to deal with a powerful demon, but it's more than enough to deal with this little dog that has already lost its strength.
The four divine beasts roared and charged out simultaneously, unleashing a torrent of attacks. In just a moment, the mutated demonic hound was reduced to a pile of charred corpses.
Ye Kang calmly walked over, absorbed the mark, and then the demon furnace swept away the remaining corpses.
Ye Kang did not intend to use this demonic hound as a precious material, so he proceeded directly to the refining process.
Then he calmly looked at Pang Jinchui.
"How is it? Does my skill in array formations meet Miss Pang's standards?"
Pang Jinchui didn't answer, but asked in confusion, "But if you kill him, won't you be unable to find the treasure he mentioned?"
Ye Kang shook his head: "No, I have a method to extract a wisp of his soul, which will dissipate after the questioning. In other words, if I kill him, the treasure will be mine."
After saying that, Ye Kang activated the Demon Furnace, and the refining speed suddenly increased.
This change only occurred after Ye Kang's rebirth; the refining process in the Demon Furnace no longer required time.
It's likely because the improvement in cultivation level is now sufficient to support the system's operation.
The refining process ended in the blink of an eye. Ye Kang placed all the materials into the Ink Jade Realm, and then, with a thought, summoned a blue spirit.
That's right, the Soul Summoning function has always existed, but Ye Kang no longer needs it, so he directly chooses to transform demons into illustrations.
As expected, the spirit formed from the mutated demonic dog opened its eyes and bowed to Ye Kang.
Pang Jinchui was greatly surprised, seemingly never expecting such a miraculous method.
Ye Kang smiled slightly and asked, "Where is the treasure you mentioned?"
Po Ling respectfully replied, "Master, ten miles to the southeast, there is an underground spring containing a Fortune Pearl formed by absorbing the blessings of this blessed land. Refining it will bring many benefits."
"I see, you can go now."
Ye Kang nodded, then with a thought, his soul spirit directly entered the Immortal Demon Record, transforming into a new page once again.
With his physical strength increasing once again, Ye Kang's sense of smell also became much sharper.
He turned to look at Pang Jinchui: "Miss Pang, you heard that, how do you feel now?"
"What amazing techniques! Can you teach me?"
Ye Kang smiled wryly, "This is an innate talent; I can't teach it even if I wanted to."
Pang Jinchui was disappointed for a moment, then said, "Then teach me formations, and I'll agree to team up with you."
"I can't ask for it."
Ye Kang finally breathed a sigh of relief. Luckily, this guy was simple-minded, otherwise he really didn't know how he would have followed her to find that tiger demon.
The system's instructions were vague, but it was clear that Pang Jinchui didn't know where the three demon tiger kings were either; he would have to follow her to encounter them.
Now that the team was successfully formed, Ye Kang pointed to the southeast: "I wonder if that Fortune Pearl is a real treasure. Have you ever heard of it, fellow Daoist?"
Pang Jinchui shook his head: "I don't know, but I do know that the Dragon Guardian Blessed Land gathers the fortune of the Martial Dynasty. If one can obtain even a trace of it, it will be of great benefit to cultivation. Since the Fortune and Prosperity Pearl is formed from fortune, it should be a good thing."
"Thank you for clearing up my doubts, fellow Daoist. If you are willing, I would like to give this treasure to you."
Ye Kang smiled slightly, showing no sign of heartache.
Whether it's fortune or blessings, it's actually quite similar to Ye Kang's good luck; to put it simply, it's a matter of luck.
But even a fool would know that the Holy Emperor would never give away the entire fortune of the Martial Dynasty. Wouldn't that be a pointless loss of the Martial Dynasty's destiny?
Therefore, it's likely that the Fortune Pearl will be difficult to obtain, and even if it is obtained, it won't be of much use.
Since that's the case, why not do her a favor and gain Pang Jinchui's favor in return? That way, it will be more legitimate for her to betray her later.
That's right, the mission description clearly meant you had to steal kills yourself, which is no different from backstabbing.
Pang Jinchui looked surprised: "Give it to me? Why are you being so nice to me? Is this a token of our love?"
Ye Kang's face immediately darkened: "Fellow Daoist, you're overthinking it. Since you've already given me a mark, I should return the favor. I have no other intentions."
Pang Jinchui thought for a moment and nodded, saying, "You're right, then let's go treasure hunting now."
Without saying a word, the two flew towards the southeast.
Ten miles away, there is a steep mountain, with a stream flowing down its slopes.
The two walked up and indeed found a clear spring at the source of the stream.
Spring water gushes from underground, and several spirit fish swim freely in the spring.
Ye Kang exclaimed, "These spirit fish are all wonderful things. They are rich in spiritual energy and taste absolutely delicious. They would probably be worth a fortune outside. No wonder this is a royal blessed land; its resources are astonishing."
He turned his head and immediately saw Pang Jinchui drooling.
Ye Kang was taken aback.
This guy must have only heard the word "delicious"!
"Miss Pang, would you like to try the taste of spirit fish? How about I grill a couple for you?"
"no need."
Pang Jinchui shook his head, then calmly took out a huge barbecue skewer.
"I brought my own."
