Spirit Vessel Chapter 1216: Trapping A Demi-Saint

Chapter 1216: Trapping A Demi-Saint

“I do think I should pick one saint as my teacher. Saint Nuwa is the most suitable but I haven’t found her legacy.” Feiyun said.

“I just happen to have an artifact related to Saint Nuwa, you may borrow it to observe but what you gain depends on your comprehension.” Phoenix G.o.ddess said.

Having said that, flames erupted from her belly b.u.t.ton like fireworks. It landed, revealing an ear made of clay. It didn’t look exquisite and seemed to be on the verge of fragmenting.

“This is...” He picked it up and saw the uneven edges. It seemed to have been torn off a clay statue.

Anyone else would have viewed it as a piece of junk. He noticed something different and viewed it as a treasure.

“This is a supreme artifact coveted by saints. Do not let anyone know you have it or you will be killed. You have one century to study it, I will take it back then regardless of your achievements.” She said.

The turtle stared for a while and its eyes widened in astonishment: “According to the legends, Saint Nuwa once crafted a male and a female statue using five-colored mud. Don’t tell me...”

“Yes, the left ear from one of them.” The G.o.ddess responded.

The turtle took a deep breath and said: “I see, you definitely cannot let anyone know, Feiyun, or that’s the end of you.”

Feiyun sent the ear into his body and started learning. He sent thirty-nine out of forty intents to study the dao within the era.

He left one intent to control his body. The group delved deeper into the mountain range.

With just one intent, his l.u.s.t subsided and he didn’t mind walking near her. The turtle and fruit walked right behind them. Now, the fruit also had a red two-layered sh.e.l.l made from the seven-star sh.e.l.l.

“Uncle has quite some luck with the ladies recently.” The fruit whispered.

“Yes, so many just come knocking on his doors. First is Firmament Fairy, then Firebird Saintess, and now this Phoenix Saintess seems interested in him too, hence the mud ear. Are they all blind? Or is it due to the changing of the stars?” The turtle responded.

“When a man becomes excellent and strong enough, women will come running.” The fruit said.

“Wow, such deep thoughts at a young age, it makes sense. If Feiyun were just a wretched half-demon who couldn’t reach Heaven’s Emergence, none of them will give a d.a.m.n about him. The better the man, the better his life. But, there is one exception, this G.o.ddess, I don’t understand why she’s taking the initiative to please him, there’s an ulterior motive...” The turtle mused.

“Should we warn Uncle?” The fruit asked.

“No, if he doesn’t see this, he’s not worthy of becoming a saint.” The turtle said.

Along the way, they met several pseudo-level beasts. Feiyun and the G.o.ddess had no issue killing them.

Next was a giant crab capable of spewing flames. It only took three moves to wound the G.o.ddess with its pincers.

Fortunately, Feiyun saved her and the two got away. Although she was pierced by the pincer, her physique was better than his so recovery time didn’t take long.

“That was a demi-saint phantom crab, we have no chance against it. Let’s take the long way around.” She said.

Feiyun stood on a mound and gazed forward while speaking: “That crab is definitely one of the kings here, gestated by those eight rivers so we can’t be far. If we take another path, we might come across those rivers or other dangerous places.” He said.

“So you’re suggesting that we keep this path? Then we will have to meet the crab again. I can only use the power of the queen once, I do not wish to do so unless there is no other choice.” She said.

“Just follow me, we need the phantom crab’s brain and jewel. The jewel helps your physique while the brain can help me learn the dao, it has to die.” He said and summoned Di Zhong.

He sent his inner core to the corpse and caused it to appear alive again.

“The crab has a sacred core and this corpse might not be able to kill it, other powerful beasts might come... but fine, if this is your decision, I will do my best.” She acquiesced while staring intensely at him.

He nodded and summoned h.e.l.l Yama, Qilin Monarch, and the 164 beast souls at the pseudo level.

They surrounded the area and started pus.h.i.+ng deeper into the center. The phantom crab sensed the threat from all directions and became anxious.

A crimson mountain towered through the clouds, condensing into bones. This was the leg of the phantom crab, more than 30,000 meters high.

“Phoenix, how dare you provoke me again? I’ve eaten more than one of your kind before.” The crab warned.

“This is a sacred ground created by our saint, we are looking for legacies yet you and other beasts are in the way. This will be your last day.” The phoenix said.

“Keke, you two juniors are going to kill me? I ate an eighth-level pseudo-saint from your race 20,000 years ago.” The crab spoke in a brutish manner and initiated an attack.

It took the initiative and attacked with its crimson leg, tearing the ground apart.

Since Feiyun didn’t have his inner core, he was no different from an ordinary person. He sat on the fruit’s back and it protected him.

“Kill it!” He used his grand puppet technique.

Di Zhong’s eyes became resplendent with saint energy coursing through his body. With just one wave, he used his hand as a saber and severed the leg.

The leg collapsed and broke the area nearby. Blood flowed out and resembled lava. The spirit energy coming from it was thicker than fire essence.

The crab was furious and tried to connect the leg again. Alas, the severed leg was nowhere to be found.

The furious crab got out of the ground entirely, releasing an eruption of power.

“Rumble!” However, Di Zhong was still stronger. He teleported and cut down another leg.

In just one minute, five more legs were severed. They disappeared instantly and the crab didn’t have time to reconnect, being left with two legs and two pincers.

The culprit was none other than the turtle. It took the legs into its sh.e.l.l while laughing: “A demi-saint’s legs, I can sell these for a fortune, haha!”

The crab was intelligent and understood Di Zhong’s power. It chose to run instead of fighting.

Ten beast souls blocked the way and attacked in unison, just enough to force the crab to pick another direction.

The same thing happened again with ten more beast souls.

“Scram!” The crab’s pincer sent three beast souls flying. Alas, this gave enough time for Di Zhong to stand on its back.

He held the badge and sent it through the sh.e.l.l, attacking the very soul.

“s.h.i.+t, a pseudo artifact! Get away!” The wounded crab became fiercer, knocking Di Zhong off with its pincer.

However, the corpse landed on the ground, undamaged, and cut down the seventh leg.
