I Pick Up A Bunch Of Attributes

254 Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest
Rewinding to not too long ago.

After the stone giant was defeated, its body gradually turned into spiritual light and dissipated into the air. At the same time, a spiritual talisman that was filled with a strange light suddenly tore through the air and landed in Feng Xia’s hand.

“What is this?”

Looking at the talisman in his hand, Feng Xia could not help but frown. “It… doesn’t seem to be a Deity Breaking Talisman or an Immortal Breaking Talisman? Strange, don’t tell me it’s a Spirit Breaking Talisman?”

The answer, of course, was no.

Feng Xia had never seen this jade talisman that he received after defeating the stone giant. It was completely different from the previous three types of jade talismans. It was a brand new type!

The jade talisman was ancient in color and filled with a mysterious aura. It felt far away and ancient, like a holy object from desolate times!

“Strange, does that mean it be that there are other types of jade talismans besides those three types?”

Not only that, but Feng Xia also thought of more.

The strength of this stone giant was about the level of a demon king. Moreover, its innate divine power was strange and its defense was extremely high. It was a rather difficult opponent to handle.

If not for the fact that the other party lacked intelligence and the combat experience of a true demon king, it would be almost impossible for Feng Xia and Zhu Youniang to defeat the other party together, even if they were in possession of the butcher knife.

“Xia.”

The gentle voice beside Feng Xia interrupted his thoughts.

Zhu Youniang stretched out her slender fingers and gently drew a few circles on Feng Xia’s chest. Her eyes were filled with smiles. “What are you thinking about?”

“I’m thinking… The Primal Core Realm indeed needs more levels like the other major realms,” Feng Xia said as he sighed softly.

In the Demon Imperial Tombs, one could obtain the Spirit Breaking Talisman by defeating a guardian who was a level higher.

If the difference was two levels, then it was the Deity Breaking Talisman. If the difference was four levels, it corresponded to the Immortal Breaking Talisman.

Based on the categorization of the Primal Core Realm in the outside world, there were only three levels, namely early, middle and grand. Therefore, a challenger in the early level of the Primal Core Realm would have to deal with a guardian at the grand level of the Primal Core Realm. That meant that a challenger who was already at the middle level of the Primal Core Realm might have to defeat the guardians in the peak of the Primal Core Realm or even the Dharma Characteristic Realm!

No matter how he thought about it, it felt a little ridiculous.

Moreover, although the strength of this guardian stone giant was strong, it was clearly still within the Primal Core Realm and was roughly on the same level as a demon king of the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons.

Therefore, it meant that based on the rules of the Demon Imperial Tombs, there was a more detailed categorization of the Primal Core Realm challengers.

“Indeed, based on this news, even if I don’t get the opportunity to climb the Heavenly Stairway, It is definitely not a wrong move for me to come to the Demon Imperial Tombs!” Feng Xia’s eyes gradually lit up. “Whether it’s for the Azure Dragon incarnation or my original body’s cultivation, it has great reference value!”

“However, it’s useless to just know that there are more detailed levels. I still need to know the specific criteria for judgment…”

Just as Feng Xia was deep in thought, footsteps sounded and figures appeared at the entrance of the grotto one after another!

The air instantly fell silent.

There were seven figures of varying heights, including a brawny bare-chested man, a charming woman, a weak-looking scholar, and a young man holding a bamboo box.

Their gazes were sharp and their auras were abundant. It was obvious that their cultivation was not weak. When they saw the Azure Dragon incarnation, their eyes lit up.

“Why is Xia Donghai so weak?”

“The Yin and Yang are out of sync, and the aura is chaotic… This is a sign that one has just entered the Primal Core Realm and doesn’t have a solid foundation!”

The seven figures looked at one another and launched their attack without much hesitation.

In an instant, they landed and surrounded Feng Xia’s group of three.

“Hand over the inheritance immediately and we, the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest, will spare your life!”

“You—”

Bai Xiao screamed and her tail shot up. Two sharp fangs flashed in her mouth as she stared at the people with extreme vigilance. “If you want to attack young master, you have to get past me first…”

“Hehe, little fox.”

They sized up Bai Xiao and shook their heads disdainfully. They sneered and said, “With your ability, you are far from qualified to stop us Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest.”

These people were all in human form, but their bodies were filled with demonic aura. Their vicious intent soared, and they did not even bother to hide their malice.

Hearing the words ‘Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest’, Bai Xiao’s heart sank. “The Demon Divine Palace’s Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest…”

As the most important place from where the entire Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons was ruled, it was not as if there were no other powers existing there apart from the Ruler.

For example, the Lion King, butler of the Demon Divine Palace, was not among the top 10 demon kings, but he was still a demon king-level expert.

The Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest referred to a bamboo forest in the Demon Divine Palace that had gathered the essence of the sun and moon for hundreds and thousands of years. In the end, it turned into seven living beings and were taken in by the Ruler. Over the years, they gradually became stronger and went around on killing sprees, leaving behind a notorious reputation!

The Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest.

The outside world called them…

The Seven Fiends of the Bamboo Forest!

There were even rumors that near the bamboo forest of their true forms, one could often hear wild shrieks and howls. There were also illusions that looked like blood shadows from hell. All the living beings which died at their hands hung in the bamboo forest with ferocious faces. It was simply like purgatory on earth!

“Little fox, you can’t stop us.”

Among them, the brawny bare-chested man laughed loudly as his arms expanded continuously like a bamboo spear that was growing madly, while intertwined with blood and murderous aura. In an instant, his arms bypassed the demon fox Bai Xiao and pierced through Feng Xia’s chest!

“You’re too slow!”

At the same time, a woman had already arrived behind Feng Xia. Her body was slender, yet her fists were incomparably swift and fierce as they smashed into Feng Xia’s head.

Snap!

The head suddenly exploded and blood splattered everywhere.

“Young master—”

The demon fox Bai Xiao’s heart skipped a beat as she let out a shrill cry.

“The notorious Xia Donghai, who is wanted by His Highness the Holy Son, is only so-so in terms of strength. The rumors are too exaggerated!”

“Why don’t you take a look at those demon beasts spreading the rumors, the kind of trash they are. In their pitiful eyes, which demon which is stronger than them is not praised exaggeratedly, like it is so rare in the world?”

At the same time, the seven people had already arrived in front of Feng Xia, their eyes burning as they stared at Zhu Youniang.

The slender woman chuckled softly. “Young lady, your man has been killed by us. Why aren’t you angry or afraid?”

Zhu Youniang smiled when she heard this. She sized them up from head to toe, and her smile became even brighter.

“Young lady? All your ages combined might not even be older than me. Besides…”

The girl raised her chin slightly and paused. Then, there was a faint disdain in her voice. “With your kind of quality, do you think you can defeat Xia?”

“Hehe, this young lady must have gone crazy.”

The Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest shook their heads. “Young lady, hand over the inheritance from this place and we can leave your corpse intact.”

The seven of them behaved as one. When they joined forces, their strength was almost only second to the demon king level. Unless Xia Donghai was a real demon king, he could only end up like this, with his head exploding and dying tragically in their hands… Huh?!

The coquettish woman in the green dress was the first to cry out, “Watch out!!”

All of a sudden, “Xia Donghai”, who was lying on the ground, had a new head growing out of the spot where his head used to be.

The eyes on the head blinked and there was a low voice.

“Which one of you… hit my head just now?”
