Cultivating with Bragging System

Chapter 133 - 125: Red Enchanting Snake Princess: Seeking Wealth in the Face of Danger (2200 words)_1



I thought this dull and tasteless life would continue indefinitely, right up until my death. But unexpectedly, it seemed even I, the Red Enchanting Snake Princess, could have a moment of divine favor. The Yinshi Evil King had actually stumbled upon a blessed land.

What’s more, he shared this crucial news with his own son. The Yinshi Evil King could hardly have imagined that the son he was so proud of had long been my most devoted admirer, the one who vied most fiercely for my favor, though he concealed it perfectly from his father.

Even though it was pillow talk, it was likely full of boasts. But the words "blessed land" were different. I had to be cautious. I immediately reported the news to the Hehuan Sect, and the higher-ups placed great importance on it. They declared, "Better to kill the wrong person than to let the right one escape!" They decided to create chaos and a series of "coincidences" during this Great Demonic Sacrifice. The plan was to severely wound the Yinshi Evil King, abduct him, and then use secret methods to pry open his mouth!

To be honest, I was somewhat uneasy before setting out. After all, if the plan succeeded, it would be a true windfall. Snake Ji could simply retreat and return to the Hehuan Sect to a life of promotions and wealth, never again having to endure this kind of existence with a dead end in sight.

But if it failed... the Hehuan Sect would be fine, suffering no great loss. The Divine Soul and Space Ring of an Emergence Stage Demon Cultivator still had some value. Besides, there were the massive number of living souls the Ghost King Sect had prepared. If we couldn’t use them, we could always sell them. The Ghost King Sect wasn’t the only Demon Cultivator sect that worshipped the Soul Seizer Demon Lord. We could still sell them for a hefty price. Doing so would certainly mean burning our bridges with the Ghost King Sect, but the Hehuan Sect could afford to make an enemy of them. At worst, we’d just lose a client.

For me, however, there would be hardly any hope left. I might be given a new face and sent undercover to some obscure Demonic Path sect, or perhaps be used as a gift for the powerful figures of other sects to play with as they wished. In short, it was a gamble. Win, and I’d attain great wealth and status. Lose, and it would all be over. A woman has to be ruthless with herself, after all.

But clearly, I was fortunate. The blessed land was real! And, as fate would have it, it was located precisely where the Great Demonic Sacrifice was being held! The Yinshi Evil King’s son hadn’t lied to me! This time, I’ve hit the absolute jackpot!

"Sect Master of Yin Eclipse, you’re too kind. This humble servant should be the one thanking you... for the trouble of leading us here!" Red Enchanting Snake Princess said, her mood magnificent, her voice even softer and more seductive than usual.

But to the Yinshi Evil King’s ears, it no longer held its usual intoxicating, soul-melting charm. Right now, he only wanted to kill this woman! No—this she-snake!

"Snake Ji, you have performed admirably!" a voice called from high above.

One of the four Emergence Stage Elders from the Hehuan Sect had spoken. She swept her demonic awareness over the seal, confirming its authenticity, an irrepressible, charming smile spreading across her face. "You will be rewarded handsomely upon your return!"

Red Enchanting Snake Princess couldn’t hide her elation. Clasping her hands, she said, "Then I shall leave the rest to you four Elders!"

As she spoke, she took a step back.

The Yinshi Evil King’s eyes bulged. "Bitch, where do you think you’re going!"

He swung his hand, and terrifying Demonic Qi converged into a massive palm that shot toward Red Enchanting Snake Princess. With his strength, this furious strike was something she couldn’t possibly hope to resist.

However, in the next moment, a beam of light descended from the Thousand Charms and Hundred Beauties Scroll in the sky, enveloping her. It teleported her away instantly, causing her to reappear outside the formation.

Standing high in the air, Red Enchanting Snake Princess covered her mouth and giggled triumphantly. "Hee hee, the Sect Master is so ferocious. You’ve frightened me~"

She had been branded by the Thousand Charms and Hundred Beauties Scroll long ago. This was why, even after countless void shifts, the experts of the Hehuan Sect could still pinpoint her location and arrive so quickly. It also allowed her to borrow a sliver of the scroll’s power to protect herself, preventing her from being directly devoured by the Blood Soul Yingsha Great Formation.

"Heh heh, still so arrogant when death is at your door..."

In the sky, the four Hehuan Sect Elders sneered as their hands formed seals. In an instant, a brilliant Demonic Light erupted. The one thousand figures of the women grew more solid, their features becoming clearer, their expressions seductive to the extreme, their allure bone-deep and soul-stirring. They were even more tempting than that brazen hussy, Red Enchanting Snake Princess.

The Yinshi Evil King suddenly felt a fire of lust surge from his abdomen. It was an unbearable heat, as if his very Divine Soul was burning, igniting a primal urge to go mad, to lose control and vent his desires. Countless lewd images flooded his mind, each scene clearer than the last, throwing his thoughts into chaos. His breathing became ragged, and he couldn’t even circulate his Mana properly.

Then, BOOM!

A pillar of light, saturated with destructive intent, descended from the heavens, heading straight for the Yinshi Evil King. His eyelids twitched wildly. Biting the tip of his tongue, he forcibly regained control of his mind and threw himself aside with all his might.

BUZZ! BUZZ! BUZZ!

With a tremendous roar, the earth shook and the mountains swayed. The long, deep ravine was instantly leveled, and large swathes of the mountainside simply evaporated. Those Nascent Soul Stage Elders who had been clinging to life were now wiped out for good.

Wang Xiu, still in the form of dust motes, was already a considerable distance away. He wasn’t hit by the blast, but the powerful shockwave still sent him flying for several miles.

***

He reverted to his human form, concealing all traces of his aura. Looking at the ravaged landscape in the distance, he couldn’t help but click his tongue. "First a spiritual attack, then physical annihilation... The women of the Hehuan Sect are truly vicious!"

The situation was spiraling into chaos. What began as internal strife within the Ghost King Sect now involved the Hehuan Sect. In total, there were five Emergence Stage experts present, plus the Thousand Charms and Hundred Beauties Scroll hovering in the sky, its power unfathomable.

However, to me, it makes no difference. After all... I never planned on solving these problems by myself anyway.

It was worth noting that while the powerful blast had thrown him outside the range of the Blood Soul Evil Array, he was still within the confines of the Signal Shielding Array. Moreover, when the Thousand Charms and Hundred Beauties Scroll descended, not only did it fail to lift the restriction, it intensified it. The effect had been super-charged. At this rate, forget sending a message; even if the Yinshi Evil King were tortured ten thousand times before he died, his screams would hardly penetrate this blockade.

"The Shielding Array... it’s not unbreakable!" Wang Xiu muttered, stroking his chin in thought.

I have a thorough understanding of the principles behind formations. A so-called formation, in essence, is a method of altering a region’s spatial properties and the operational frequency of its internal rules. Take this message-blocking Signal Shielding Array, for example. Communication—is it transmitting information? No, in essence, it’s transmitting a wave, just like sound or light. The difference is that a Communication Token transmits a wave invisible to the naked eye.

The core principle of the Shielding Array is to alter the structure of these waves, making it impossible for waves within the formation to coexist with the space outside it. Originally valid information, upon entering the formation’s space, is changed by the environment and the array’s power, becoming a chaotic wave. By the time it passes back out of the formation, it has become a disordered jumble of gibberish, or it might disintegrate entirely, ceasing to exist.

Let’s say that once the formation is active, the space inside it becomes a pond. All the birds inside have their structures changed, turning them into fish. Within the pond, the fish can swim just fine. But if they pass through the formation’s boundary and back into the sky, they can no longer fly. They can only fall. Unless, of course, it was a...

Anyway, that’s how a Shielding Array works.
