While Xia Muge was secretly watching Xu Feng, Xu Feng was currently plagued by worries.
Half a year has passed, and he has neither gained any opportunities nor improved his strength.
For a genius like Xu Feng, wasting a full six months is a terrible mistake.
In the past six months, his cultivation level has not improved at all; the only improvement he has made is by obtaining some spirit stones from the Tang family.
In fact, he even did a favor for Tang Ranran so that she could go to the holy land.
Although this favor doesn't seem like much.
But Xu Feng still felt he had lost out big time.
Xu Feng isn't the only genius in the Yunhuan Holy Land. If he uses these favors, he might receive fewer resources later on.
However, he felt that Tang Ranran was a good person.
At least she's pretty.
For Xu Feng, ignoring Tang Ranran would actually affect his Dao heart.
So he couldn't bear to give it up.
Xu Feng was therefore annoyed.
In half a year, his experience, opportunities, and cultivation level did not increase, while the geniuses of the Cloud Realm might have fallen behind him because of this.
Therefore, Xu Feng arrived when he received the news that there was a high probability of a treasure-hunting beast in Jiangning City.
He just hadn't expected there to be so many cultivators here.
Although he managed to infiltrate the city lord's mansion and befriend the city lord's daughter, Ye Qing, by leveraging the reputation of the Yunhuan Holy Land, he was still able to do so.
However, this does not mean that the treasure-hunting beast belongs to him.
The Third Princess of the Great Xia Kingdom was eyeing this place covetously, and disciples from other sects and holy lands also came here.
The Holy Land probably doesn't need another treasure-hunting beast.
However, this does not mean that the Holy Land has no shortage of disciples.
This doesn't even include the independent cultivators; there are already a full thousand people from various forces gathered here.
However, many small sects have too few members, and currently only four forces are vying for the treasure-hunting beasts and divine pills.
Great Xia Kingdom, Cloud World Holy Land, Azure Dragon Holy Land, Nine Netherworld Holy Land.
These four places are all well-known powers in the surrounding area.
Although those who came to capture the treasure-hunting beasts were not geniuses from their respective holy lands, Xu Feng had to deal with quite a few people because of their reputation.
More importantly, he doesn't have good interpersonal relationships in the Cloud Realm, so he can't find anyone to protect him even if he wants to.
He could only hide in the back and wait for an opportunity.
For Xu Feng, this was undoubtedly a terrible thing.
However, after obtaining an opportunity to meet the Third Princess from the daughter of the City Lord's Mansion, Xu Feng was tempted again.
But he still refused.
The Third Princess is the most beautiful woman in the Great Xia Dynasty. Every year, many people want to marry her, and she has countless suitors.
Even those who cultivate the Tao can bend their backs for the sake of physical appearance.
If he were to beg to see the Third Princess like everyone else, then in the Third Princess's eyes, he would be no different from anyone else.
In this situation, he had to do the opposite.
Xu Feng is good at pursuing people.
He knew he needed to find a different approach, especially with beautiful girls.
However, no matter how much he thought about it, he still couldn't come up with a good solution.
Fortunately, there were some gains.
The daughter of the city lord of Jiangning City seems to like him.
However, he didn't think much of it.
Although the woman was fairly good-looking, the city lord of Jiangning City was merely an official of the Great Xia Dynasty, and he felt unworthy of her.
However, if I want to win the Third Princess, I'll probably have to start with this woman.
Xu Feng thought to himself.
However, while he was thinking about how to seduce the Third Princess, he noticed that Xia Qingshuang was surrounded by many men who were trying to curry favor with her.
His mindset immediately became unbalanced again.
…
…
Xia Muge never expected that his luck would be so bad.
After escaping from the Third Princess Xia Qingshuang, he ran towards the outskirts of Jiangning City, only to accidentally stumble upon a place where evil cultivators resided.
The so-called heretical cultivation is naturally an evil form of Taoist cultivation.
The righteous path focuses on self-cultivation, while the evil path focuses on plundering others.
Generally speaking, Kyushu is not lacking in geniuses, but it lacks geniuses who have grown up.
The vast majority of geniuses perish during their trials because of the interference of evil cultivators.
Evil cultivators love nothing more than stealing other people's spiritual roots and talents.
The one in front of us is no exception.
This evil cultivator was ugly, with yellow teeth, red eyes, and brittle hair; he looked anything but elegant.
He possessed the ability to directly identify a person's spiritual root. Upon seeing Xia Muge, he immediately recognized that Xia Muge had a top-grade innate ice spiritual root.
Such a valuable talent is the perfect prey for evil cultivators.
The reason he became a heretical cultivator was because he lacked the talent to cultivate the true path.
For the heretical cultivator, this is not his fault, but rather the fault of the world.
Why is it that some people with talent can do whatever they want and be loved by the world, while he, who wanted to cultivate the Tao, had to endure so much suffering and become this inhuman, ghost-like creature?
The price he paid for becoming a heretical practitioner was far too high.
It wasn't just their appearance that was ruined, but also their souls that were sacrificed.
He looked at Xia Muge and couldn't help but smile contemptuously: "Scared, young man?"
"But even if you're afraid, it's no use."
He displayed his imposing presence.
Xia Muge's eyes narrowed.
Although the cultivation levels of heretical cultivators are similar to those of righteous cultivators, heretical cultivators are generally stronger than righteous cultivators.
Because these people have a very low moral standard.
These people can even use their souls as weapons.
A hint of displeasure flashed in Xia Muge's eyes: "You really think you can beat me?"
But then he flew up on his sword and attacked the evil cultivator.
