Chapter 94: What is Fiend Cultivation! Wrest the Karma! (III)Translator: Storm in a Teacup

They went on for a tug-of-war with the coercion, but the jade bead could hold no longer.

Watching the three cultivators who were holding him with all their efforts, Fo Zi looked profound, his eyes rippling as if it contained all the dharma of the world. He sighed lightly, and smiled, “Amitabha, if we couldn’t figure out a way, Cultivator Yun would run out of her strength. There’s a saying in Buddhism that ‘nothing ventured, nothing gained’. I think it would be a good idea if I go down first and check the situation for you guys.”

Luo Jianqing was shocked. At the moment he looked down and saw Fo Zi let go ofYun Xiang’s hand.

Eyes opening widely, Luo Jianqing wasn’t astute enough to take any action, because, before he did, a comely hand grabbed Fo Zi at once.

Not expecting this to happen, Fo Zi lifted his gaze and saw Yun Xiang belching a mouthful of blood which dyed Fo Zi’s elegant face in blood. Body shivering acutely, Yun Xiang gripped Fo Zi’s hand tightly and said, “Before I kill you for revenge, you are NOT allowed… to die!”

With blood covering his face, Fo Zi gazed at the girl dressed in black with astonishment. After a long silence, he smiled with nobody knowing the reason, “Lady, you are possessed again. A narrow escape was a ‘narrow’ one, true, but I was just falling down, it was a ‘escape’ as well.”

Yun Xiang had enough, “Shut up!”

“Amitabha, as you wish.” Fo Zi answered.

Seeing this scene, Luo Jianqing finally relieved. To be honest, he was in a great pain as well. Mo Qiu needed to hold the weight of all three of them, while he needed to support two as well. Besides, his Cultivation Base was lower than Mo Qiu’s.

However, when Luo Jianqing raised his head, what he saw was Mo Qiu’s out of shape scarlet robe which was wet by his own blood.

The operator of this coercion was probably just a Body-Fusion Period Cultivator, but his coercion was mixed with colossal Sense of Kill. It was nothing like the coercion that Xuan Lingzi released to reprimand Luo Jianqing, nor it was the coercion that Hao Xingzi used to test Mo Qiu. Their coercions were determined to test the younger cultivator’s willpower, but not like what they were facing today – the operator of the coercion had the intension to kill every living creature within his reach.

Seeing his friend suffering, Luo Jianqing almost sobbed, but he could do nothing about it.

Suddenly, Mo Qiu shouted out a curse towards the ground, “I’m gonna kill you one day!”

Then, a scarlet glow gleamed from Mo Qiu’s body. Wisps of dark Fiend Qi hovered around him. The Fiend Qi was slightly different from what Luo Jianqing saw previously. It was not pure black but mixed with something in bloody color. The presence of Fiend Qi restrained the coercion in a complete manner. Feet tapping the air, Mo Qiu got back to the jade bead.

Then he dragged Luo Jianqing, Yun Xiang, and Fo Zi out of the danger.

As soon as stepping on the bead, Yun Xiang passed out. Luo Jianqing took out a pill and helped her take it.

Fo Zi was no better than Mo Qiu. As the one who was the closest to the center of the coercion, now his face was pallid.

Making sure Yun Xiang would be all right, Luo Jianqing turned around and saw Mo Qiu spitting out a mouthful of blood and reeling back. Luo Jianqing rushed to him and caught him before he reached to the surface, and at this moment, the ferocious coercion was finally dissipated as well as the dark-red Fiend Qi.

Eyes shut tight, mouth oozing blood, Mo Qiu collapsed, leaning on Luo Jianqing’s chest.

Immediately, Luo Jianqing operated his Spiritual Power to probe inside Mo Qiu’s vines. The next moment, when he realized what he sensed, he was shocked, “How is this possible?!”

Within a blink, Mo Qiu’s Cultivation Base descended from nearly Out of Body Period to late-stage Nascent Soul Period.

Luo Jianqing never heard anything like this – one’s Cultivation Base shrunk dramatically in a sudden. Mo Qiu’s wounds weren’t that bad, but his Cultivation Base was indeed weakened. Without any reason, Luo Jianqing recalled the black Fiend Qi with a touch of blood hidden beneath. An idea glittered inside his mind, but he failed to catch it.

Since the coercion vanished completely, the four of them could finally take a break on the top of the jade bead.

Mo Qiu woke up after fainting out for a while. Except the reduced Cultivation Base, he looked pretty normal.

However, this time, Mo Qiu’s eyes met with Fo Qi’s in the air. Mo Qiu had sensed the grimness. Even Fo Zi lost his usual smile.

Fo Qi said, “The sins are… tremendous.”

Nonetheless, Mo Qiu said in calmness, “He at least killed… a hundred thousand people.”

Fo Zi operated the jade bead and lowered the altitude near the ground. When they reached the desired height, Luo Jianqing saw a river in crimson color. The river originated from far beyond the mountain alley. It was simply a river with nothing else. The odd thing was that – it was… a blood river.

The smell of blood tensed Luo Jianqing’s expression.

When they made closer to the origin of the river, some scattered corpse and chunks of meat started to appear. Luo Jianqing turned expressionless, while Yun Xiang’s face was pallid. Fo Zi seemed to be not influenced at all, but the clenching fingers on his Buddha Beads Bracelet revealed his anger.

Mo Qiu was the only one who was watching all of these in complete calmness.

When the four cultivators reached to a common village and saw a pile of corpses, Yun Xiang had enough of these and vomited. As she was spitting out and wiping tears, she said, “A diabolic Fiend Cultivator like this one really exists in this world?”

With a wisp of coldness hidden beneath his gaze, Mo Qiu questioned her, “Such a hypocrite, aren’t you? As a Fiend Cultivator, why are you still saying these?”

Yun Xiang defended herself, “But I never killed anyone!”

The words dropped in Luo Jianqing and Fo Zi’s ears and made the two young cultivators astonished. The Fiend Cultivatress went on, “My Master told me that once a Fiend Cultivator breaks the line and makes a kill, there’s no way for he or she to turn back. Therefore, for me, killing has been forbidden since I was little, not to mention snatching other’s Spiritual Power. Otherwise, why – on your point of view – I am still a Gold Core Period Cultivator, given that I’ve cultivated for thirty-nine years?”

Hearing Yun Xiang’s explanation, Fo Zi wasn’t moved at all but said the truth in a bleak tone, “But your majestic Master – the Fiend Exalt – has killed 3.61 million innocent people.”

Rage was ignited in Yun Xiang’s eyes, “Don’t you dare speak of my Master like that!”

Fo Zi threw off all of his gentleness and blankness. With the diabolic pile of corpses reflected in his limpid eyes, the monk said in an extreme calmness, “Since what I told you is the truth, there is no point refuting me. The Fiend Exalt achieves what he gets today by stepping on a road which is composed by millions of corpses. Then what do you think made my sect move to Cen State a thousand years ago? To stop the merciless man, obviously.”

Hand formed into a claw, Yun Xiang took a strike, “Stop speaking of my Master like that!”
