Chapter 162 - Ancient Scripture Academy (1/2)
Four days of flying, it was night and Wang Yue was fast asleep. They had just entered the Water Domain's borders and Wang Ling was thinking deeply about different matters.
[How do I take out that snake?]
The Serpent Turquoise is a spirit beast that came from the bloodline of the Black Turtle or otherwise known as the Black Tortoise.
The Black Turtle are two beings in one, a Turtle and a Serpent that wraps around its shell. Only those of the purest members from the descents of the Black Turtles can a pair appear.
The serpent and the turtle is one of the same, it came from one egg and will die as one. But as time flows, the bloodline thinned and variants of the Black Turtle divided.
There are now two variants of Black Turtles, First would be the Turtle Counterpart which has an incomparable defense, and the other would be the serpent which possesses speed and venomous attacks.
Wang Ling's goal this time was the serpentine counterpart of the Black Turtle. The Serpent Turquoise, a turquoise colored serpent that secretes a venom that is said to have the ability to kill a dominion realm cultivator.
In truth, the Serpent Turquoise was a True Saint Cultivator at its strongest, but with its venom and bloodline, it could stand at the peak of Saint Stage.
Wang Ling can take on any cultivator that is on Saint Phase, but there are exceptions to be made.
Spirit Beasts are at their core stronger than humans. A True Saint Stage Serpent Turquoise is going to be a hurdle.
This time's hunt will be more challenging than the last.
[I need to find a way to neutralize the venom of the Serpent Turquoise. There's the [Poison Purging Pill] that can neutralize most poison and even greatly weaken the Serpent Turquoise's venom, but what I want is something that will neutralize it completely.]
Wang Ling sighed as he then remembered a pill and that pill was already a grade-3 pill. The recipe in itself was not that hard, but if he fails, he would be wasting a lot of ingredients.
[I need to find a trustworthy alchemist. If I remember correctly, this is still the 6th month of the year, is Renhuo still in the Ancient Scripture Academy?
I'll have to stop by the Ancient Scripture Academy. Is it near the Tranquil Empire?]
Wang Ling took out a map and started browsing through the Water Domain. He only knew the Ancient Scripture Academy was in the Water Domain.
The East of the central regions has three of the Seven Great Academies. The Flame Domain has the Hundred Refinement Academy, Holy Domain Heaven's Will Academy, and the Water Domain have the Ancient Scripture Academy.
”It seems like you really do have plans of your own, Ling'er.” Xiao Fei'er saw Wang Ling fiddling with the map and asked.
Wang Ling raised his head and nodded his head, ”I need to go to the Ancient Scripture Academy and meet an acquaintance of mine.”
”Is that matter of yours urgent?”
”Yes, I need to find an alchemist to concoct a pill for me. I am going to hunt some spirit beasts.”
”Oh!? I want to help you in that matter, but I can't make a move right now else those people of the other clans will freak out. You should have asked Butler Sun to kill it for you. He will gladly kill it if it is not higher than Celestial God Stage.” She commented.
Wang Ling shrugged his shoulders not saying anything.
”I won't pry into your secrets, my child. If you don't want to talk about it then I will not say anything. I'm going to head to Ancient Scripture Academy now.”
”Thank you, mother.”
Wang Ling just answered Xiao Fei'er when the qi surrounding Bai Xue shot up.
Her little body trembled in his hands and the Bai Xue's cultivation reached new heights. Her blood started to churn and her body began to heat up.
Bai Xue's body was convulsing and for a time, her white fur was slowly changing to a hue of red. She was in pain, she groaned as her qi began to rise.
Wang Ling noticed this and hurriedly circulated his angelic qi. Wang Ling's bloodline was still activated so his angelic qi was stronger than ever.
