Immortal Taoist Lord: My Cultivation Have No Limits

“No one is chasing us.” The trio lay low for a while, only breathing a slight sigh of relief once they were sure there were no immediate threats. Su Yun patted Su Yu’s tight arm to get him to relax. There was no need to be so scared of dying.

Su Zhi handed over the Qiankun Bags to Su Yun for inspection, along with the demonic banner artifact.

After checking them, Su Yun frowned slightly and pulled out a black token from the bag. The token bore the design of nine purple demon flame figures.

“What’s this?” Su Yun asked, puzzled.

A hint of change crossed Su Zhi’s face when she saw the token. She quickly took it from him and examined it. “It seems to be the Identity Token of an inner sect disciple from the Nine Spirits Demon Palace… I remember reading about it in the sect’s archives, but it can’t be. This demonic cult doesn’t belong to our Supreme Moon Prefecture.”

“Furthermore, the Ghostheaded Golden Eagle doesn’t qualify. That force is the equal or even stronger than our Supreme Moon Palace,” she added.

A troubled look came over Su Yun’s face as he thought about the damaged demonic array banner.

But he soon shook his head, saying, “The Ghostheaded Golden Eagle can’t be associated with this force, not when its cultivation technique isn’t demonic.”

He rummaged around in the Ghostheaded Golden Eagle’s Qiankun Bag and unearthed a beast-skin map.

It was just an ordinary map.

“It seems to be a map of the Eight Demon Peaks?” Su Yun was uncertain, as the Eight Demon Peaks were not far from here, just a day’s journey away.

It was a region known for a concentration of demonic beasts. There were even rumors of the Demon Clan residing there.

The name Eight Demon Peaks was related to the Demon Clan.

Su Yun noted faint traces of demonic energy on this map of the Eight Peaks.

Su Yu was unfamiliar with the Eight Demon Peaks, so he could only observe from the side.

Su Zhi, however, knew it well. She had been there to complete a sect task. Peering at the map, she immediately confirmed, “Yes, it’s definitely a map of the Eight Demon Peaks.”

Su Yun’s pupils constricted, and he spoke in a lowered voice, “The Ghostheaded Golden Eagle’s demonic token and that banner might very well be related to the Eight Demon Peaks.”

They found no further clues or objects, and there were no marked locations on the map.

After a glance at the map, Su Yun put the token back again for the time being, focusing on the other items.

“378 low-grade spirit stones, four medium-grade magic artifacts, three low-grade magic artifacts, a top-tier first level formation banner set and a second level fragmented demonic formation banner.”

“Oh, there are even five ancient jade boxes? Two are already opened, and three remain unopened.”

Su Zhi calculated everything carefully. A medium-grade magic artifact was worth 100 to 200 low-grade spirit stones each, and a low-grade magic artifact was worth 70 to 80 spirit stones each. A top-tier first level formation banner set should be worth around 300 to 400, and even though the second level fragmented demonic formation banner was a demonic artifact, its value wouldn’t be less than the formation banner set.

The total haul should be worth around 1,300 to 1,400 low-grade spirit stones.

“Not bad. At least we didn’t lose out,” Su Zhi sighed in relief.

She had also been quite frightened earlier.

She thought she had been generous to bring five top-tier first level talismans on the mission.

To her surprise, the Second Elder used a whopping 12 of them!

Even Su Yun, whose cultivation level was lower than hers, used seven of those powerful top-tier first level talismans!

Did these two pay no mind to the value of top-tier first level talismans at all?

What if their targets had fled?

That would have been a massive loss.

Even the Yunjian Sect wouldn’t fight with such stakes. It was just too expensive.

All that for just a ninth level Qi Refinement Realm and two eight level Qi Refinement Realm cultivators.

While on their side, they had one ninth level and one eighth level Qi Refinement Realm cultivator. Even if they engaged in combat, it wasn’t guaranteed that they would lose.

Even if they didn’t win, escaping after breaking the formation shouldn’t be a problem.

Seeing Su Zhi’s reaction, Su Yu gave her a small smile. “Sister, whether we lose or win isn’t the main point. What matters is that we survived, and that the Ghostheaded Golden Eagle and his gang of three are dead, all thanks to those talismans. ”

“Killing a chicken with twelve butcher knives and scattering its ashes. Staying alive is the most important.”

Seeing the Second Elder’s earnest nod of agreement, Su Zhi was speechless in response, .

These two, a pair of top-tier first level Alchemist master and disciple, really talked big with no regard for consequences.

Had it not been for her family’s support, she could not even have afforded those five top-tier first level talismans, let alone those stray cultivators.

“Hehe.”

Su Yun chuckled and handed over the 300 plus low-grade spirit stones to Su Zhi. He pointed at the magic artifacts and said, “Zhi, do you think you can use any of these? If not, I’ll take them back to the sect and give them to the First Elder. ”

After a look, Su Zhi shook her head. “The magic artifact I have is enough.”

Su Yu didn’t need those magic artifacts either, but he was interested in the three unopened ancient jade boxes. “Master, sister, should we open them?” he pointed at the boxes and suggested.

Su Yun laughed and threw the three unopened ancient jade boxes to Su Yu.

In Su Yun’s eyes, these ancient jade boxes were no different from toys. Most of them were empty; it was just the allure of greed and thrill that made some people infatuated with these ancient jade boxes, in the hopes of obtaining so-called ancient opportunities.

Su Yu didn’t really care about these ancient jade boxes either. He manipulated his mana to break the lingering restrictive aura, and all three ancient jade boxes were opened.

One of the ancient jade boxes was empty.

Another one had a few pieces of clothing that turned into ashes the moment the box was opened.

Yet in the third one, there was a jade slip.

Su Yu, Su Yun, and Su Zhi exclaimed in surprise. Su Yu was stunned.

Did it actually contain something?

Su Zhi exclaimed excitedly, “Little Yu, quickly see what it is.”

“Okay.” Su Yu picked up the jade slip. Under the expectant gaze of Su Yun and Su Zhi, he probed it with his divine sense. In an instant, a surge of inheritance information rushed into his mind.

[Golden Jade Sky Puppet Art.]

An inheritance containing various puppet creating methods from a second-tier high-grade puppet master.

Crack!

The overwhelming information rushed into Su Yu’s mind, causing the jade slip in his hand to shatter and slide to the floor. It took him half an hour to recover and open his eyes.

“How was it?” a worried Su Yun asked hastily.

After some thought, Su Yu replied, “It’s a second-tier top-grade puppet master inheritance. ”

“A puppet master…” Su Yun’s face fell with regret. It was a second-tier top-grade inheritance! Why couldn’t it be an alchemist or a talisman master’s inheritance instead? There was nobody in their family who knew about puppeteering.

“Never mind. Let’s see who’s interested in studying puppeteering in the future. It won’t go to waste,” said Su Yun, “But let’s keep the news of this inheritance to ourselves for now. A second-tier top-grade inheritance is enough to stir up a lot of unscrupulous desires.” Su Yu and Su Zhi both nodded.

“Let’s go. Time to head back to the sect.”

The trio resumed their journey. However, without any spirit horse, it took them five days to return to River City’s Cang Mountain.

The Su family moved to a blessed land with spirit veins in Cang Mountain. Su Yu hadn’t been back for several years. Upon his return, he witnessed the drastic changes the Su family had undergone in just a few years, with courtyards neatly arranged on the spirit vein blessed land.

The wedding of Su Qingyi and Chen Sisi was approaching, and the Su family estate was decorated cheerily.

After Su Yu returned, he started pondering about what gift he should give to the couple?
