Chapter 472: Chapter 192: Unique Holy Bath, Underground Cave 4
Without Enhancement Points, he couldn’t make rapid progress.
This journey of his wasn’t simply for sightseeing or experiencing the trifles of the Mortal World.
Especially after surviving the Demon Saint’s strike, his need to increase his strength had become even more urgent.
He had no desire to ever go through an experience like that again.
His goal—to be unrivaled as a Grandmaster—was still a long way off.
Grandmaster Peak, Grandmaster.
These two great mountains still lay before him.
Confront, clash, defeat, slay, sweep through.
A five-step game, and each step required painstaking effort for him to progress faster.
He desperately wanted to improve.
To improve to the point where, one day, he could slaughter that Lady of the Demon Palace!
’No, toy with her first, then kill her!’
...
「Profound Wind Tribe.」
Old Dad Haji arrived before a courtyard. After hesitating a moment, he stepped inside.
Inside the courtyard, a burly, black-robed figure came into view.
"High Priest, I have something to report," Old Dad Haji said with a bow.
The black-robed High Priest turned to look at Old Dad Haji.
"Ha Yuan, what is it?"
Old Dad Haji hesitated, looking as if he wanted to speak but couldn’t find the words. The High Priest stepped forward and smiled. "What’s this? Even a big, strapping fellow like you has things you find hard to say?"
"Have a seat. There’s no rush. Take your time."
As the High Priest spoke, he produced a cup from thin air and poured some tea.
Old Dad Haji sat at the courtyard’s stone table. Cupping the tea with both hands, he took a sip and looked at the High Priest. "High Priest, this matter concerns the tribe. You should be aware of the Holy Hall’s order."
Hearing this, the High Priest nodded and sat beside him, looking at Old Dad Haji. "Yes, of course I’m aware. What about it? The selection hasn’t even begun. Don’t tell me you’re already afraid?"
Old Dad Haji shook his head. "High Priest, my son has a friend visiting. He said... he said he can fight on behalf of the Profound Wind Tribe. He has the Cultivation of a Martial Arts Grandmaster."
The High Priest stared at him, stunned by his words.
After a long moment, the High Priest finally spoke, his eyes glinting. "Is what you’re saying true?"
Old Dad Haji nodded.
"Yes, it’s the absolute truth."
"That’s why I came to ask for your opinion, High Priest. I was planning to ask the Great Chieftain afterward."
The High Priest narrowed his eyes, a tremor in his gaze. His fingers tapped lightly on the stone tabletop. After a moment of contemplation, he looked at Old Dad Haji.
"Repeat his exact words to me. Not a single word different."
Old Dad Haji took a sip of tea and then repeated Fang Xing’s words verbatim.
After listening, the High Priest fell silent.
’There are still people like that in the world??’
’Willingly walking into danger, even knowing how perilous the Underground Cave is...’
’No matter how you look at it, something feels... off!’
’No matter how selfless or righteous someone is, no one could possibly go this far.’
’Even saints have selfish desires.’
’And yet, there’s no fault to be found in his reasoning.’
’Needing Fierce Beast Essence Blood for Cultivation—that reason is perfectly sound.’
’There are thousands of Martial Arts and countless Divine Skills in this world; practicing some special kind of Martial Arts is hardly a rare occurrence.’
’There are even Martial Arts that involve feeding one’s own body to demons.’
’Fierce Beast Essence Blood is indeed valuable, and it can work wonders for advancing special Martial Arts.’
’But... it still feels a bit incredible.’
’I’ve really seen it all now!’
Seeing the silent High Priest, Old Dad Haji blinked. "High Priest, what do you think?"
"If this is feasible, it would save our Profound Wind Tribe from a crisis."
The High Priest considered this for a moment before looking at Old Dad Haji. "That may be so, but I need to discuss this with the Great Chieftain. And I’ll have to meet the man himself."
At this, Old Dad Haji nodded and stood up. "Then I’ll go report to the Great Chieftain right now!"
"I’ll go with you," the High Priest said, rising to his feet.
The two of them then left the courtyard, heading toward a great hall in the center of the tribe.
