BOSS Transmigrates as a Little Cutie - Chapter 153.3 - Return

Chapter 153.3 – Return

Qing Yun flew on his sword all the way to the Sacred Dao Sect. The Sacred Dao Sect had opened up today, and cultivators from all over rushed to the residence at the centre of the Sacred Dao Sect. From above, this scene truly looked like a pilgrimage of sorts.

While flying, a Mahayana stage cultivator flung out a sleeve, which immediately wiped out three of his accompanying Immortality stage1 cultivators. Seeing this, the remaining Immortality stage cultivators immediately took out all of the weapons they had on themselves, warily scanning their surroundings. At the same time, they began to distance themselves from the remaining cultivators of a higher stage than them.

Although they have not yet arrived at Sacred Dao Sect, the battle had already begun.

This was because the rules for seizing original souls2 this round had already come in the order token released by the Sacred Dao Sect this morning. In the secret area that the Sacred Dao Sect was going to open, original souls have been transformed into tiny and ordinary objects. Whether an individual would chance upon their own soul would be entirely up to their luck.

But the Sacred Dao Sect took special care to mention that if any of the cultivators got their own original soul, there would be no reaction whatsoever. However, if they touched another person’s original soul, and the owner of this soul just so happened to be in the secret area as well, then that original soul would immediately dissipate, and the corresponding person would also die.

And although the original souls in the secret area were distributed according to one’s cultivation level, there were always surprises. Who knew if any of these people, who did not have a cultivation level on par with theirs, would take their original soul instead by accident in some misalignment of the stars?

This would mean that every single cultivator rushing to the Sacred Dao Sect could possibly be their murderer. So, before entering the secret area, they should kill as many cultivators as they can!

Seeing this, Qing Yun sneered. The Sacred Dao Sect had indeed taken great pains to reduce the number of people in the secret area this round. Even more so, by creating this sort of environment, it was basically forcing Qing Yun to have no choice but to reveal his own cultivation level.

But Qing Yun had no intention in the first place to hide away today.

The big fishes ate the small fishes, while the small fishes ate the shrimp. Thus, when the Immortality stage cultivator who had fallen to the lowest end of his cultivation stage saw Qing Yun, a Core Formation stage cultivator, his eyes immediately lit up, wanting to do something like “kill a person and snatch their treasures”.

With one slash of his sword, Qing Yun brought the person down. The familiar glint of light emitting from the sword attracted the gaze of the surrounding people instantly.

Back then in the Hidden Cloud Valley, the cultivators who had seen Qing Yun chop off the finger of the White Eyebrows Taoist monk all shook their heads in sympathy at that Immortality stage cultivator. This individual had hounded a Tribulation stage cultivator to his death back at that time, did he not see all the other cultivators of stages Mahayana and below being so careful to not provoke him?

He smoothly entered the secret area of the Sacred Dao Sect. Once the last cultivator had entered the secret area, the Sacred Dao Sect’s opening closed abruptly.

This secret area was a mountain peak, with its summit piercing through the clouds. The higher they went, the bigger the inexplicable pressure was on the crowd.

After being thrust into the secret area, the cultivators started to hurriedly look for their original soul right away.

However, just when their fingers touched the ordinary and mediocre grass blades around them, there promptly was a bloodcurdling scream from someone, and that person disappeared without a trace not a second later.

They had only entered the secret area for a few minutes, but there were screams from all directions. A third of the surrounding people had already disappeared.

Immediately, there were cultivators that called for everyone to be cautious, but the cultivators of higher stages had already started rushing towards the mountain summit. This was because the higher they went, the pressure increased; obviously, the original soul of some of the more gifted or of higher cultivation stages would be spread towards the centre.

Seeing this, the Tribulation stage cultivators went full speed directly towards the peak of the secret area. As these high-staged cultivators were in the midst of flying, they were surprised to discover there was a young junior, just barely reaching the Core Formation stage, whose speed matched theirs. It was evident that his aim was the same as theirs: the summit.

“You there, child! You are only but a Core Formation stage cultivator, even if you are exceptionally gifted, how high do you think you can climb in this secret area?” One of them reprimanded Qing Yun, knowing him as the gifted disciple, Yun Qing, from the Sky Origin Sect. Afraid that this youth would come into contact with his original soul if he rushed ahead, he aimed a palm at Qing Yun, wanting to bring him down.

“Scram!” Qing Yun deflected the attack back at him and persisted in flying towards the summit. He could already feel that his original soul was at the summit, at the same time…… The Sacred Dao Son and the Tao of Heaven were also waiting for him there!

After being brought down by Qing Yun, the cultivator was shocked to find out that the child had impressive cultivation, and had soared from the Core Formation stage to the Immortality stage.

The remaining cultivators around them had also taken notice of Qing Yun. This was just a talented disciple from the Sky Origin Sect, but he had actually overtaken all of the Immortality stage cultivators, then the Divinity stage ones, then the Transcendency stage ones. In the blink of an eye, he even rose to the region where all the Unification stage cultivators were at.

At the same time, his cultivation level was rising and had continuous breakthroughs. This was a dumfounding sight for the crowd.

“This child must have suppressed his own cultivation for a very long time! If not, it would be impossible to have such rapid breakthroughs like this!”

Chatter started up all around; there were even people who had forgotten all about finding their original soul, only focusing on raising their heads to watch how high Qing Yun could go.

The higher one went, the bigger the pressure. Unless his original soul was really at such a high altitude, he definitely would be severely injured by the pressure that was impossible to fight against, and fall.

Soon, Qing Yun had already reached the Mahayana stage region. However, his speed still did not slow down, his figure hurriedly rushing towards the summit like a sharp sword. The hairband used to tie his hair also broke apart, unable to withstand the pressure while nearing the summit, leaving a head of raven hair flowing in the wind behind him.

This appearance of white clothes and black hair instantly made the elders present think of one person.

And at this moment, Qing Yun’s aura had already reached a level where it could not be impeded, making it almost impossible to look at him directly. The surrounding Tribulation stage cultivators also involuntarily kept their eyes away from the sharp glow, even thinking that the pressured feeling that the mountain gave them was not as strong as that of the white-clothed youth.

Someone inadvertently caught a glimpse of Qing Yun’s face and immediately let out a cry of surprise.

Qing Yun’s appearance had changed; he removed all of his disguises, finally revealing his face as that demon, Qing Yun.

Cheerios! ~astrid83

1. I think this stage (元婴) was tled as the Immortality stage in previous chapters, but the more common term is Nascent Soul stage. The Immortality stage is also used for the Mahayana stage sometimes, so if there is some confusion here, I apologise. If I am wrong about any of the stuff, please do leave comments or just ping me on discord.
2. raws says 本魂 which I thought was referring to Qing Yun’s soul, but it turns out everyone has one? Not sure what it does so far.
