NETS Chapter 247 Secret Technique

The new arrival was an young Eighth Layer Blood Condensation Realm cultivator dressed in black. There was a trace of indignation on his face when he saw the Crystal Palace disciples guarding the cave entrance.

The displeasure quickly faded away as he respectfully handed over a jade token, and said, The Three Clans Alliance, Wang Clans Wang Yi-Mu here, with Enlightened Master Wang Huas order to condense my Hundred Flowers Aegis Energy. Senior martial brothers, I ask to be let through.

The Wang Clan?

One of the Crystal Palace disciples played with the jade token in his hand, and said mockingly, I really dont understand Enlightened Master Kun Shan. Its Senior Brother Qi Shi-Min and Junior Brother Wang Yi-Shan who discovered the Hundred Flowers Land, and they are both Crystal Palace disciples, so it should be ours to own entirely. Why did Enlightened Master Kun Shan agree to let Wang Clan disciples come here and waste our resources?

Wang Yi-Mu corrected him, Senior brother, youre wrong. Our Wang Clan discovered the place first, then Cousin Wang Yi-Shan and Cousin Wang Yi-Ling led Crystal Palace here.

Presumptuous! Who are you to address us as your senior brothers? Wang Yi-Shan is a Crystal Palace disciple, so he naturally can do so. But the rest of your Wang Clan is unworthy. Youre just a small clan that our Crystal Palace showed some grace.

At this time, another shooting light landed before the entrance. The cultivator was another Crystal Palace cultivator.

The cultivator turned to the team leader and said, Senior Martial Brother Ma, Im here under Enlightened Master Kun Shans order to enhance my aegis energy.

Of course, Junior Brother Lin. Young and talented! Youre the rising star valued greatly by Enlightened Master Kun Shan! Go on in. Head towards the southeast corner, the Hundred Flowers Ominous Essence is more concentrated there!

The team leader ignored Wang Yi-Mu and turned to Junior Martial Brother Lin, leading him to the front of the entrance.

Junior Martial Brother Lin nodded. He glanced at Wang Yi-Mu behind him, then said, Senior Brother Mas hard work is appreciated, Enlightened Master Kun Shan will surely reward you for it. Perhaps the last spot to enter will be yours.

Senior Martial Brother Ma was overjoyed, It would be great if Junior Martial Brother Lin could help me out in front of Enlightened Master Kun Shan.

Junior Martial Brother Lin nodded softly, before gradually disappearing inside the entrance.

Dont you think this is too much!?

Wang Yi-Mu looked at the Crystal Palace disciples in front of him who were intentionally stalling him and letting Junior Martial Brother Lin enter first. He finally erupted, and said indignantly, I have come on the order of Enlightened Master Wang Hua. What are your intentions by repeatedly making things difficult for me?

Senior Martial Brother Ma and the others looked at Wang Yi-Mu with a mocking expression, and said, Difficult? Did we say we wouldnt let you enter? Even if its difficult for you, dont forget that this is Crystal Palaces territory. We have shown the Wang Clan kindness, but not only are you ungrateful, youre now trying to be aggressive?

Wang Yi-Mu knew that they were trying to make things difficult for him, so he held his anger, took the jade token from Senior Martial Brother Mas hand, and walked towards the entrance without looking back.

Senior Brother Mas voice drifted from behind, Go to the southwest corner, thats the place allocated for Wang Clan disciples.

Wang Yi-Mu turned around angrily and chided, This is too much! That was where my Cousin, Wang Yi-Heng, enhanced his aegis energy. The Ominous Essence has thinned out, how can I enhance my aegis energy there?

Senior Martial Brother Ma sneered, Its up to you. If you dont like it, Im sure many others in the Wang Clan are willing to replace your spot, right? Dont blame me for not reminding you. If we find you elsewhere, youll be kicked out by the patrolling disciples!

Wang Yi-Mu thought of leaving and explaining the situation to Enlightened Master Wang Hua, but he remembered Enlightened Master Wang Huas subtle hint before coming, and the envious eyes of his other cousins.

In the end, Wang Yi-Mu glared fiercely at Senior Martial Brother Ma, turned around, and walked into the entrance.

Senior Martial Brother Ma and the others exchanged a look and laughed coldly. One of them reminded, You only have three days. By that time, whether or not you successfully condense your aegis energy with the Ominous Essence, youll have to leave, either willingly or by force.

Wang Yi-Mu paused for a split second, then continued to walk towards the cave.

Unbeknownst to the crowd, a dark blue figure had stealthily reached the top of the stony slope as they were busy quarreling. He pulled out a fat mouse from his spirit pet pouch, rode on top of it, and sank into the ground without leaving any traces behind.

Although very similar in nature, the [Stone Spirit Escape] was more difficult than the [Earth Spirit Escape]. Therefore, Dabao was once again exhausted after he successfully sent them to the Hundred Flowers Land. He lay on the ground like a pile of dead meat, not willing to move anymore.

There was still a fog in the Hundred Flowers Land. However, it had now been discolored from pink to light gray.

The Hundred Flowers Ominous Essence was pink while the Hundred Flowers Malodor Essence was black.

Since most of the Hundred Flowers Ominous Essence had been used up by cultivators to condense their Hundred Flowers Aegis Energy, the fog had turned light gray, the diluted color of Hundred Flowers Malodor Essence.

Lu Ping carefully spread out his divine sense, immediately covering most of the Hundred Flowers Land. He meticulously avoided the patrolling Crystal Palace disciples and slowly made his way towards the depths.

Suddenly, a divine sense swept across the place. Lu Ping was shocked, and quickly took out the two stone slabs from his interspatial ring, placing them either side of him..

The divine sense moved through the area as if it hadnt detected him.

Lu Ping breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that not only were there patrolling cultivators, there were also cultivators checking the areas with divine sense from time to time.

It looked like this place was important to Crystal Palace.

Lu Ping continued to go deeper. Every few hundred feet, there would be a team of patrolling cultivators, each team consisting of three members. They would scatter out to patrol the area and check every corner with their divine sense.

Lu Ping frowned. This Hundred Flowers Land had lost its King of Flower, and would take another few hundred years for the new King of Flower to manifest. So, why would Crystal Palace pay so much attention to it, even dispatching so many disciples to safeguard the land.

For the Hundred Flowers Ominous Essence? Lu Ping didnt think so.

The Hundred Flowers Ominous Essence was used up by Lu Ping and Senior Martial Brother Qi, not to mention that there were other disciples from Crystal Palace and Wang Clan that came afterwards.

The remaining Hundred Flowers Ominous Essence was rather little, and not worthy enough for Crystal Palace to go to such lengths.

Furthermore, Crystal Palaces security was lax at the entrance, but tight on the inside, as if Crystal Palace was trying to hide something from outsiders.

At the entrance, three of the four disciples were weak and ordinary. Only Senior Martial Brother Ma seemed to pose a threat.

Yet, the disciples here in the depths are all at the Eighth Layer, and even Ninth Layer Blood Condensation Realm. Their arcane energy rippled vibrantly in their bodies, and their divine sense was sturdy. They were obviously elite disciples with a consolidated foundation.

The two stone slabs were actually the boulders that Lu Ping took away from the cave entrance. They were made from an unknown material that could avoid detection from divine sense and absorb any arcane energy.

Lu Ping opened the Tome of Thousand Millets and released the Amethyst Bees out to harvest nectars in the Hundred Flowers Land.

The Amethyst Bees quickly scattered out in the vast landl. Even when the disciples noticed the bees, they would only find one or two of them. So, they wouldnt treat the bees seriously, and would never realize that these were the infamous Amethyst Bees.

Because the Amethyst Bees would eventually have to move between the flowers and Tome of Thousand Millets, staying in one place would eventually attract Crystal Palaces attention. So, Lu Ping had to wander around in Hundred Flowers Land.

Thanks to the stone slabs and his abnormally strong divine sense, he could move stealthily without fear of being discovered.

Suddenly, Lu Pings divine sense perceived that the fog, which had been stagnant all this while, started to move. The fog was flowing southwest, slow and almost unnoticeable, but Lu Pings strong divine sense still picked it up.

Southwest? Isnt that where the Wang Clan disciples are at? So he has a secret technique that can draw Hundred Flowers Ominous Essence towards him? Whilst the Hundred Flowers Ominous Essence is sparse now, it should still be enough for a Late Blood Condensation Realm to condense his aegis energy if he had it all.

Lu Ping didnt want to get involved. Instead, he avoided that direction and wandered off to other places.

Two days later, the Amethyst Bees had harvested a lot of nectar and produced a lot of honey. They were all now in the First Layer Blood Refining Realm with more than twenty going to break through to the Second Layer Blood Refining Realm within the next few days.

However, the birth of a queen bee, and hence the production of Amethyst Bee Royal Jelly, wouldnt happen until the majority of the colony reached the Third Layer Blood Refining Realm.

Lu Ping wondered how much more nectar could be harvested off the flowers in the Hundred Flowers Land.

Suddenly, the Hundred Flowers Ominous Essence around him stopped flowing southwest. It seemed that the Wang Clan disciple had successfully enhanced his aegis energy into Hundred Flowers Aegis Energy.

Shortly afterwards, the Wang Clan disciple disappeared from Lu Pings divine sense detection.
