Chapter 75: Chapter 75: The Power of Divine Concealment

Translator: 549690339

The founder of the Dragon family had once informed the family leader that if the Dragon family was in danger, they must go to a specific place. An organization would provide you with support there. As long as you join the organization, you will have the chance to revive the Dragon family. The Dragon family leader also passed this information to his three sons.

It's close, nearly there!

Just when Dragon San Shui was preparing to let his guard down, a voice resounded in his ear.

“Third Young Master, you've run for so long, take a rest. Have some water.” Jiang Li kindly reminded Dragon San Shui and offered him a gourd, terrifying Dragon San Shui to the point that he stumbled and fell to the ground.

“Hey, hey, hey, when did I ever give him water?” The Ruyi Gourd spat unhappily. Jiang Li had admonished it earlier not to speak at random, but there weren't many people around at the moment. Qin Luan and his companions were her allies, and this Dragon fellow wasn't going to live long, that thing should be able to speak now, shouldn't it?

Ever since the Spiritual Treasure gained sentience, the fact that Spiritual Treasures could speak wasn't a new phenomenon, so Qin Luan and his companions didn't find it odd.

Of course, they'd definitely show a different reaction if they knew that this was the Immortal Instrument Ruyi Gourd.

“You… you… you, you're all so persistent!”

Upon seeing Jiang Li, Dragon San Shui lost his desire for revenge, praying that they would spare him his life if he attempted to plead for mercy.

“Referring to us as 'persistent spirits' sounds quite unpleasant. It's more like 'persistent good spirits'.” Jiang Li corrected him seriously.

“Our Dragon family is already decimated. Please show mercy and spare my life.

I promise to turn over a new leaf and devote the rest of my life to doing good!”

Jiang Li turned his head and asked, “You all heard that, right? He said that he wants to turn over a new leaf.”

“In that case…” Song Ying was confused by Jiang Li's words. Was he planning to let this guy off?

Qin Luan nodded, “Since he wants to start anew, reincarnation is inevitable. It seems that young Master Dragon is prepared to die. Let's oblige him.” “That's not what I meant!” Dragon San Shui quickly denied.

“All of you, the saying goes 'spare the helpless when possible'. Even though I couldn't help the old founder of the Dragon family, as the last descendant of the Dragon family, we should spare him.” An elusive voice echoed in a bone-chilling tone from all directions.

Yuan Wuxing was on high alert. He immediately began surveying his surroundings but found no other human presence. When he turned his head, an old man stood beside Dragon San Shui.

A God- transformation stage cultivator!

“Are you the representative of the organization that the old founder told me about?” Dragon San Shui was overjoyed as if he had found his savior.

“The old Dragon leader has given me many human tokens, which have been of considerable help to the organization. As the sole survivor of the Dragon family, you can not only join our organization but also make one request, as long as it's within my capacity.” The old man replied kindly, looking benign and well-intentioned.

“Then, please kill these people!” Dragon San Shui pointed towards Jiang Li and his group.

The old man shook his head, “These people have seen me and are bound to die. You can make another request.”

Dragon San Shui's face was filled with resentment, his eyes bloodshot, “I have no other requests, just please leave them half-dead. I want to kill them with my own hands!”

“That can be done.” The old man casually agreed. A Nascent Soul beginner, two Golden Core beginners, and one at the Foundation Establishment Stage, all together were not even enough for him to deal with single-handedly.

Yuan Wuxing was on edge. Facing a God-transformation cultivator, no matter how good he was in battle, he couldn't possibly protect Qin Luan, Song Ying, and Huang Li… wait a minute, something seemed off. Did someone not need his protection?

Qin Luan looked curiously at Jiang Li, eager to see what Huang Li, a Golden Core cultivator, would do under such circumstances. After all, he didn't have a solution himself.

However, far from his expectations, Jiang Li displayed a hundred-foot-tall Body Incorporation, which was powerful and ferocious. He killed Dragon San Shui and heavily wounded the old man in a single attack.

“That… your move just now didn't look like a Golden Core cultivator's.” Song Ying timidly reminded Jiang Li.

“Oh, actually you don't know. There is a soul of a Great Completion Stage Powerhouse in my ring which can boost my power temporarily in crucial moments,” Jiang Li explained, “I didn't want to use it unless necessary. This is my trump card. But under the special circumstances today, I have to reveal my trump card. ”

“You must keep it a secret!” Jiang Li repeatedly urged as Song Ying almost subconsciously nodded her agreement.

“Who on earth are you!” The old man was scared. With just one move, Jiang Li had taken half his life. He was absolutely a Body Integration Realm cultivator!

“A Golden Core cultivator, Huang Li,” Jiang Li introduced himself.

“You're fooling who!” The old man roared in fury. An odd force surged inside him, instantly healing his body, and he turned to run.

Jiang Li perceived the peculiar force within the old man and his expression changed. He stopped pretending to be a Golden Core cultivator, grabbed the old man with his Body Incorporation, and demanded, “What is this power! Where did it come from! How could someone like you who kills at the drop of a hat possess this type of power!”

“You… you are an elder of the Body Incorporation Sect!” The old man recognized Jiang Li's technique as a hallmark of one of the six major sects, the Body-incorporating Sect, whose members were renowned for their powerful Body Incorporation.

“Where did your power come from!”

“Heh, do you think telling you would spare me my life?” The old man knew he was doomed and refused to reveal anything about his power.

“I hope you won't beg me to kill you later.” Jiang Li said with a cruel smile.

Pleas for mercy and wailing echoed, chilling Song Ying to the bone just by listening. She dreaded imagining the kind of torture the old man was enduring.

“Please… kill me.” The old man was disfigured by Jiang Li's torture. “Whatever you want to know… I'll tell you… Just give me a swift death.”

The old man could hardly believe that such brutal tortures could exist in the world.

“What is your power? How did you get it?”

“It's the power of the God-hidden, the followers of the faith. Every true believer of the Respected God-hidden can discover the God -hidden power hidden within their body.”

“What sect is this?” Jiang Li had never heard of this sect, nor of the Respected God-hidden.

There were numerous sects in the Nine provinces that worshipped the

Immortals of the Immortal Realm, such as those who worshipped the Northern

Emperor, the Star Lords of Tai Yin and the Sun, and the Yellow Horned Immortal, amongst many others. Meanwhile, the Human Emperor was, in essence, also a kind of belief, with the faith power of the Imperial Palace derived from this.

When the ladder to immortality wasn't severed, the power of faith in these Immortals could be transmitted to the Immortal Realm, and the Immortals would descend with immortal incantations. After the ladder to immortality disappeared, the connection with the Immortal Realm was lost, the power of faith could no longer be transmitted, and the Immortals stopped descending. Now, these sects that worshipped the Immortals had almost disappeared.

“I am a disciple of the God-hidden Cult. Our Sect Hierarch taught us that each of us has infinite power within our bodies. We are unable to perceive it due to our limited understanding. Only by having faith in the Respected God-hidden and using the human token can we tap into our God-hidden power!”

“What is the human token?”

“It's a human, whether they are good or evil. As long as we kill, we can tap into the God-hidden power.”

“Isn't this the cultivation method of the demonic path?” Qin Luan couldn't help but interject, Yuan Wuxing also incessantly nodded, this reminded them of Jiang Yixing.

“What demonic path? The power of the demonic path carries resentment, God-hidden power doesn't.” The old man glowered and displayed the God-hidden power to Qin Luan.

The God-hidden power was golden and radiant, warm, and gentle, different from the cold demonic path as heaven is from earth.

“Do you know what I call this power?” Jiang Li asked solemnly.

“What?”

“The power of merit.”

Both Qin Luan and Yuan Wuxing felt a chill running from their feet to their

heads..
