Chapter Thirty-Six: The Village Roughneck

tood before the gates of the Zhendao Sect."Halt!"Just then, a deep voice boomed from within the Questioning Sect.But before Ginger Cloud could speak, another voice rang out: "Quickly open the mountain...Seeing this purple weasel transformed into a purple light, there were more gasps from the crowd.

"Sixth Rank Beast, Violet Gold Weasel!"

The purple-gold ferret feeds on gold and silver. Not only is it incredibly fast, its teeth are incredibly sharp, capable of biting through gold with ease, let alone human flesh.

"The most terrifying thing is that the golden weasel's teeth also contain gold poison, which dissolves immediately upon contact with blood. Even if you are bitten through a sliver of skin, the gold poison will quickly enter your body through the bloodstream, making it extremely difficult to treat!"

"An outer sect disciple can even have a sixth-order ferocious beast! It's just too much, comparing people is infuriating. Having a good brother is truly different!"

Even ferocious beasts have levels of hierarchy. To make it easier to distinguish them, cultivators classified fierce beasts into nine grades, corresponding one-to-one with the nine realms of the Pulse Meridian.

A Six-Rank Chimera is equivalent to a cultivator at the Sixth Pulse Stage!

Whether it's a second-grade magic artifact or a sixth-order fierce beast, let alone outer sect disciples, even inner sect disciples rarely have both at the same time.

Fang Ruolin had already firmly protected herself with a first-rank defense shield, putting her in an invincible position. Now she sent a sixth-order ferocious beast skilled in speed to attack Jiang Yun. Almost everyone could imagine that this contest of overwhelming power difference would soon have a result!

Just then, a flash of ferocity suddenly appeared in Jiang Yun's eyes. A terrifying bloody aura erupted from his body, charging straight at the purple gold marten that was flying over.

At the same time, Jiang Yun also retracted the finger that had been blocked by the black armor shield with a sudden jerk, changed his finger to a fist, and slammed it heavily on the black armor shield!

"Bang!"

"Click!"

Two sounds rang out consecutively.

The first sound was the thud of Ginger Cloud's fist striking the shield; the second, a resounding crack as a huge fissure appeared on the black-plated surface; and the third followed immediately after!

"Splash!"

This second-rank magic treasure, the Black Armor Shield, shattered from the cracks and fell in two pieces to the ground. The black light dissipated, revealing Fang Ruolin's terrified face.

As for the sixth-order ferocious beast, the Purple Golden Weasel, it had already been lying prostrate beneath Jiang Yun's feet, its body curled into a ball, trembling violently!

The entire Wen Dao Sect once again fell into a deathly silence!

Everyone stared in stunned silence at the shattered black armor shield lying in two pieces on the ground, and the trembling purple-gold ferret, unable to believe their own eyes.

He shattered a second-rank magic artifact with his bare hands; his eyes glared, making the sixth-order beast tremble and cower in fear, too scared to attack. What kind of situation is this

You have to know that even among cultivators of the blessed land realm, it is impossible to simply shatter a second-rank magic artifact with their physical strength alone, unless they are purely body cultivators.

Not to mention, it's impossible for even the true inner disciples of Baishou Peak to intimidate a level six ferocious beast with just their eyes!

When everyone was completely stunned by the scene before them, a voice suddenly rang out from among the five peaks: "Junior Brother Song, are you sure you didn't see wrong just now This child's Dao body is truly devoid of any openings, his spirit is absent, and he only has meridians that are slightly thinner than others"

After a brief silence, a voice tinged with displeasure spoke up: "Senior Brother Lan, I am a cultivator of the Heavenly Cave. Could it be that I, too, cannot discern whether my Dao body is unimpeded and possesses spiritual essence"

"Junior brother, don't misunderstand me. Of course I don't question your intentions, junior brother. It's just that the strength this child is displaying now is truly astonishing." The blue-robed elder paused for a moment before continuing, "Master Wan, as the master of Bai Shou Feng, could you explain about the Purple Golden Weasel"

"That's true!" a heavy voice boomed, "Just when the kid glared earlier, my beast companion told me that he was emanating a strong bloody aura. We can't sense it, but ferocious beasts are extremely sensitive to it, and this kind of aura is only acquired after slaughtering a large number of ferocious beasts!"

The blue-robed elder was taken aback and said, "So this means that before joining the Wenda Sect, this child had killed a large number of ferocious beasts"

"His reaction was extremely fast, and his movements were clean and decisive. Although his attack style was simple and brutal, it was effective. It was clear that he had gone through many fights and had rich practical experience, so this must be the case!"

"Many ferocious beasts, slaughtering wildly..." The blue-robed elder pondered for a moment before speaking, "Within Nanshan Prefecture, the place with the most gathered ferocious beasts is only Wanmang Mountain! But Wanmang Mountain is the territory of the demon clan, it's a forbidden area for our human race, Jiang Yun, could he have come out from within Wanmang Mountain"

Even when speaking the last sentence, even with the identity of a blue-robed elder, there was an unavoidable tremor in his voice.

Ten thousand fierce mountains, even for beings as powerful as them, would not dare to venture easily. Therefore, they couldn't possibly imagine how a human boy like Jiang Yun, with average talent, could survive within the Mang Mountains

Suddenly, another steady voice chimed in: "Fellow disciples' guesses should be correct. There is only this possibility that can explain why this child possesses such ferocious power and the ability to intimidate ferocious beasts!"

> "Once the retest is over, immediately dispatch someone to thoroughly investigate this person's background. If he truly comes from Mount Mangshan, it means he must be in league with the demon tribe, and even, possibly a spy sent by the demon tribe to our Wen Dao Sect!"

Upon hearing this voice, the crowd couldn't help but be slightly startled. This was the voice of the Peak Master of Jian Dao Feng, the main peak. They hadn't expected that even this small trial competition would attract his attention.

This is the genuine first edition.

However, when everyone thought about Fang Ruolin's identity, they understood. After all, Fang Yuxuan was the most beloved disciple of the Sword Dao Peak Master. Naturally, he would also pay attention to Fang Ruolin out of love for his disciple.

But the last words of Jian Dao Feng's master woke everyone up.

Humans and demons have always been at odds, their conflict never ceasing. For example, there have been many instances of demons bribing humans to infiltrate the Human Clan's Daoist sect as spies.

Of course, this is a two-way street. Just as the demon clan can buy out human clans, human clans can also buy out the demon clan.

Regardless of their ethnicity, any spies discovered will be killed without mercy.

"Yes, Senior Brother!" The blue-robed elder nodded, but still unconvinced, asked: "But if we ignore where this child comes from and just look at his current strength, isn't there any value in cultivating him"

A calm voice spoke softly, " Brute strength and intimidation are mere tactics of village ruffians! On the path of cultivation, one's innate talent is paramount. Without it, all else is meaningless."

It's clear that Sword Dao Peak Master looks down on Jiang Yun.

The blue-robed elder let out a soft sigh. "It's a pity about this child. If his aptitude wasn't so poor, I would have considered taking him as my disciple! But Wan Shixiong, since he possesses the ability to intimidate ferocious beasts, wouldn't it be perfect for him to become your disciple"

A heavy voice boomed once more: "Senior Brother Lan is joking. This child can join any other peak, but he absolutely cannot join my Beastmaster Peak. As Junior Brother Song just said, this child has no spiritual affinity, and the path of beast taming relies entirely on spiritual affinity, not merely brute force to subdue ferocious beasts!"

The old man under the blue night sighed helplessly, "That's true, let's just wait and see!"

These sounds gradually subsided, and in the square, with the destruction of the black-armored shields and the submission of the purple-gold ferret, Jiang Yun's fingers were once again pressed against Fang Ruolin's throat.

Although Fang Ruolin's face was pale, she was not too flustered. Following this, she gritted her silver teeth and suddenly appeared with a bright yellow talisman on her empty right hand. She hurled it towards Jiang Yun's dantian.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate! almost identical to Nankun's residence, but significantly larger in size.In the courtyard, there was also a two-story building and cultivated fields, but they had long been abandoned.It's clear that...
