A Druid Also Can Cultivate-Chapter 329 - 318: Gou Dao Treasure Manual, Druid’s Aversion

Qi Ping’s battle where he killed nine Golden Core cultivators from the Qingtian Realm was earth-shattering, and naturally, the matter would not be easily resolved.

On that very day, a Nascent Soul aura rose from within the Cyan Origin Sect.

Ling Qianjue, the Supreme Elder at the Nascent Soul stage, who had been in seclusion for almost a century, emerged at the request of Gu Yunxiao, the Taoist of Wind and Thunder, and Sect Master Lin Yue!

Ling Qianjue, a cultivator with a Wood Attribute, cultivates the Cyan Origin Sect’s secret scripture, the "Supreme Longevity Scripture," and has been alive for countless years, outliving many of his peers and enemies. At least two Nascent Soul cultivators have been outlived by him.

Currently, Ling Qianjue is truly a living fossil of the Cyan Origin Sect, perhaps even the oldest relic in the Qingtian Realm. It is said that even the Immortal Alliance Envoy, Lin Wuji, who has special life-extending means, hasn’t lived as long as Ling Qianjue.

Compared to Ling Qianjue’s low profile, Lin Wuji, as an Immortal Alliance Envoy, is much more flamboyant.

Though it is unknown if it was his intention, on the day of his emergence, a terrifying blood-colored cloud enveloped the entire Immortal Alliance base. In that moment, countless wraiths howled, demon souls rampaged, and the air was filled with eerie howls of unknown origin...

The most terrifying part was when this blood ginseng-like figure appeared, the entire sky was permeated with a frenzied and chaotic aura.

Even within this rampaging aura, the Immortal Alliance base suffered heavy casualties.

Faced with such a terrifying ruler, despite the possibility of death, no one dared to move an inch; they all bowed in utmost respect.

This domineering, towering, blood-colored figure unleashed an oppressive, frenzied aura, wantonly destroying everything around until, after a long time, this frenzied and chaotic aura was gradually retracted.

However, if one looked closely, Lin Wuji’s eyes still showed uncontrollable madness and chaos...

Only after receiving orders from this Nascent Soul ruler did the figures prostrated below dare to stand up.

They looked at Lin Wuji in the sky, crazed and domineering; each person’s eyes reflected fear and dread, even the remaining two Golden Core cultivators. In the presence of this Nascent Soul ruler, they had no choice but to bow down!

...

Some time later, two Nascent Soul figures and four Golden Core figures descended upon Yaya’s Tribulation Crossing Land.

The two Nascent Soul figures were, of course, the Supreme Elder of the Cyan Origin Sect, Ling Qianjue, and Lin Wuji of the Immortal Alliance. The figures belonging to the Cyan Origin Sect were its Sect Master Lin Yue and the Taoist of Wind and Thunder, Gu Yunxiao. The remaining two Golden Core cultivators were the last two from the Immortal Alliance.

Upon meeting, these groups did not speak, nor did they have any intention of communicating, merely searching various parts of the scene for clues.

However, from the atmosphere, one could clearly perceive the tension and mutual vigilance in the air.

Strangely, the one more vigilant among the figures was Lin Wuji of the Immortal Alliance, who appeared more domineering and powerful. His wariness of Ling Qianjue of the Cyan Origin Sect was heightened, and even the madness and chaos in his eyes had considerably cleared up.

On the other hand, Ling Qianjue casually inspected the area, appearing more relaxed than Lin Wuji by far.

This clearly demonstrates the intimidating power of the seemingly harmless Supreme Elder, Ling Qianjue!

However, what surprised these two Nascent Soul cultivators was that even they couldn’t find any useful traces or clues!

This was truly surprising for Nascent Soul level powerhouses—a Foundation Establishment Cultivator managed to clear every trace so thoroughly? 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

Especially for Ling Qianjue, who had lived countless years and never encountered someone who could clean up traces so impeccably, leaving even him, a Nascent Soul cultivator, unable to find anything.

Little did they know, Qi Ping was most vigilant against them!

Qi Ping always feared being tracked by unknown means, which would expose his domain.

To avoid this, Qi Ping meticulously studied all books, records, and cases related to this matter within the entire Cyan Origin Sect and the Qingtian Realm!

He had even used some extra Black Market Points thirty years ago to purchase three types of similar knowledge from the Mysterious Black Market, which contained the lifelong insights of fellow discreet cultivators like him!

These resources, due to their obscurity, weren’t very expensive, but they were immensely rewarding to Qi Ping, who found them immensely valuable!

Thus, despite the longevity and vast experiences of Nascent Soul cultivators like Ling Qianjue, assessing ability goes beyond years to include knowledge accumulation in this domain!

Qi Ping thoroughly studied all tracking techniques accumulated over the countless years in the Qingtian Realm, along with those discreet techniques from fellow practitioners, leaving no stone unturned. How then, could he be tracked by outsiders?

Qi Ping knew that although he had reached a century of cultivation, he was still too fresh compared to those old monsters who had cultivated for thousands of years, and the only way to surpass them was through learning!

If a cultivator who had lived for ten thousand years had experienced ten thousand tracking incidents, then Qi Ping would learn fifty thousand such cases! Furthermore, he systematically researched and integrated them into his own "Gou Dao Treasure Manual!"

As such, there was an immediate distinction, unless Qi Ping had a lapse or encountered someone even more skillful in this regard.
