The Demonic Cultivator In Zombie World novel Chapter 179

Chapter 179: Celestial Sound Zen Temple

Nobody knew how much effort Shangguan Hao had invested in his female disciple, Ning Yurong. He had provided her with the best spiritual resources, magic treasures, and cultivation methods available. Everything of the highest quality had been given to her, and she had understood the significance of his actions.

Ning Yurong practiced a seductive demonic technique and was adept in the arts of charm and intimacy. The two had extensively explored the profound pathways of dual cultivation.

Through Ning Yurong, Shangguan Hao experienced a unique flavor of companionship quite distinct from that with his other partners, which made him value her highly. _{fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓}

He could not accept Ning Yurong's death.

"Who exactly is this He Liang?" Shangguan Hao pondered, his fists clenched and eyes bloodshot from rage. "My Majestic Sword Sect has destroyed many sects; which one did he belong to?"

He was determined to use all his resources to find He Liang and make him understand the pain of losing a loved one.

"Shangguan Hao, come here immediately and start the pill concoction!" a woman's dissatisfied growl came from the pill concoction chamber. "If you're even a breath late, I'll whip you ten times!"

Shangguan Hao's face, twisted with rage, instantly softened into a smile. "Little Qianqian, I'm coming, I'm coming, don't be mad."

...

In Righteous Dao City, within the Duan family's estate.

"Third uncle, the monk Huikong from Golden Dragon Temple possesses great merit. He should be the one we recruit," urged Duan Que. "Didn't you agree two days ago to offer him a position in the Duan family? Why have you changed your mind now?" He asked anxiously.

Duan Cang, the head of the Duan family, frowned deeply and said in a grave tone, "Yesterday, a high monk from Celestial Sound Zen Temple visited our family."

"Celestial Sound Zen Temple from the Holy Sound Star?" Duan Que was taken aback.

Duan Cang nodded. "Exactly. You should know the prohibitions of Celestial Sound Zen Temple."

Duan Que sighed deeply. "I know. Celestial Sound Zen Temple reveres only human Buddhas. As for 'Dragon Buddha,' like those from Golden Dragon Temple, they don't even recognize them."

Not being recognized was putting it mildly. In the eyes of the monks from Celestial Sound Zen Temple, heretics were even more detestable than adherents of other faiths.

If monks from Celestial Sound Zen Temple and Golden Dragon Temple were to meet, a fight would likely break out without a word.

Duan Cang continued calmly, "Celestial Sound Zen Temple is the absolute ruler of Holy Sound Star. Master Yuanming, a late-stage Golden Core cultivator who also practices physical cultivation, is among them. He also possesses a layer of the merit wheel. His spiritual root is an earth-grade Metal Spiritual Root.

Golden Dragon Temple, I've never heard of it before. It must be just a small force on Mystic Azure Star. Between the two, whom we should choose needs no further discussion, does it?"

Duan Que sighed deeply, "I understand now, family head. It was my oversight. However, I've already made the offer that he could join our Duan family with just a nod from him."

A bitter smile formed on his face.

Duan Cang patted him on the shoulder, "It's not entirely your fault. I also did not expect that a high monk from Celestial Sound Zen Temple would seek to join our Duan family."

"Family head, won't you reconsider? I can sense that Huikong is truly extraordinary," Duan Que pressed earnestly.

Unable to resist his urging any longer, Duan Cang finally said, "Very well, bring him here tomorrow, and I will assess his spiritual root with the magic treasure bestowed by our ancestors.

If his strength and talent surpass those of Yuanming from Celestial Sound Zen Temple, I will dismiss Yuanming without a second thought and take Huikong as an honorary elder of our Duan family. How does that sound?"

Duan Que nodded vigorously, "That would be excellent!"

...

Chu Xuan, sensing a visitor outside his cultivation chamber, promptly ceased his meditation.

A voice transmitted through the formation outside said, "Fellow daoist Huikong, this is Duan Que."
