Chapter 1793: 1793
Chapter 1793 (Raw 1805): Dispute Between Righteous and Demonic
Riding on the unruly Demon Blood Vulture, which possessed a strong demonic nature, Xiao Chen explored the vicinity of the Black Cutlass .
Firstly, this helped Xiao Chen adjust to the environment of the Ash Gray Sea . Secondly, he hunted ferocious beasts to train himself and, at the same time, obtain nourishment for the Immemorial Demon Soul Formation . Thirdly, he could search for a place to take the tribulation .
The vast Ash Gray Sea was boundless, stretching as far as the eyes could see .
The waves surged, soaring high . Occasionally, pirate ships and exploratory ships from sects swept by .
Although the Ash Gray Sea was dangerous, many cultivators and pirates came here to seek fortuitous encounters and temper themselves .
This was especially so for pirates . Out of ten ships that passed by, seven were pirate ships .
Xiao Chen once heard Xiao Suo say that many pirates wanted to explore the forbidden seas, making it their life’s goal .
Without entering a forbidden sea, one could never be considered a true pirate . This was like a kind of qualification .
However, the Black Cutlass was merely at the edge of the Ash Gray Sea’s periphery . It was still a long distance from the true deep sea .
This place was mostly peaceful . Nothing much would happen here .
Everyone knew that there would not be any tempting resources or fortuitous encounters at the Ash Gray Sea’s periphery . There was nothing worth risking serious damage here .

“Big Brother, there’s a Demon Blood Vulture!”
When the cultivators on a pirate ship discovered the Demon Blood Vulture flying in the sky, their eyes immediately lit up .
The Demon Blood Vulture was a rare ferocious beast . Every part of its body was considered a treasure .
This was especially so for cultivators who cultivated demonic Cultivation Techniques . The Demon Blood Vulture was great nourishment for them, even more attractive than dragon blood or dragon flesh .
“Don’t even think about it . Do you not see the person riding it? That is someone who could subdue a Demon Blood Vulture . It is best not to offend such a person . Otherwise, you would not even know how you died!”
The captain of that pirate ship was very knowledgeable . After seeing Xiao Chen on the Demon Blood Vulture, he immediately gave up on that thought .
Many people were tempted . However, when they saw that someone had subdued the Demon Blood Vulture, they also gave up .
Their eyes filled with regret . The Demon Blood Vulture was a very rare find . Even if one happened to stumble into it, it was very strong . It possessed an overwhelming demonic nature and should not be offended .
Xiao Chen was extremely lucky to run into a Demon Blood Vulture that was not fully mature and only as strong as a middle-stage Star Venerate .

“That way!”
Sitting casually on the Demon Blood Vulture, Xiao Chen swept his eyes across and discovered a strange black fish with colorful hair .
The body of this fish was like a small island . If not for it bobbing up and down, Xiao Chen really would have taken it for an island in the sea .
Xiao Chen knew quite a lot about ferocious beasts, but he did not know what this strange black fish before him was .
However, based on its aura, it was a Star-Venerate-level ferocious beast .
“You are it . Attack!”
Xiao Chen patted the Demon Blood Vulture he sat on . Then, it charged down, looking like a red phantom . Before the strange black fish had time to sink into the water, the Demon Blood Vulture’s claws tore apart the fish scales . Then, it ferociously flapped its wings .
“Boom!”
This kicked up huge waves and pressed down the water on both sides .
The Demon Blood Vulture grabbed the strange black fish and hoisted it into the air . The black fish’s blood spilled out like a stream flowing out of the mountain .
The strength of this fellow’s claws is really horrifying . Fortunately, I did not give it a chance to grab me back then .
Xiao Chen felt quite lucky . The Demon Blood Vulture’s strength was truly incredibly horrifying .
There was nearly no need for Xiao Chen to make a move . The instant the Demon Blood Vulture lifted the strange black fish into the air, its sharp, hooklike, silver beak ferociously pecked down and tore through the fish’s head .
Then, the Demon Blood Vulture started eating the fish’s brains . No matter how that strange fish struggled, it was useless .
In merely two or three pecks, this early-stage-Star-Venerate-level strange fish was nearly dead from the Demon Blood Vulture’s attack .
Xiao Chen quickly stopped the Demon Blood Vulture and directed it to return to the Black Cutlass . When they approached, he got it to toss the half-dead fish into the sea .
“Whoosh!” Xiao Suo activated the Immemorial Demon Soul Formation in the ship, and a cloud of blood mist spread out .
The Immemorial Demon Soul Formation consumed the strange fish, which was about the same size as the pirate ship, without pause . Terrifying roars rang out . That was the Yazi Beast Demon Soul eating .
From Xiao Chen’s viewpoint, the Black Cutlass with blood mist shrouding it looked exceptionally bizarre .
When the Demon Blood Vulture saw that blood mist, its drool flowed out like a long river .
It became restless, wanting to charge over to absorb that blood mist .
However, Xiao Chen firmly pressed down on the Demon Blood Vulture, not giving it a chance at all .
This was not the time to feed this thankless wretch . Once it grew stronger, it would immediately turn around and dispose of Xiao Chen .
Xiao Chen could only feed the Demon Blood Vulture without worries after Elder Tang made progress on his cultivation and thoroughly tamed this ferocious beast .
“Let’s go . ”
After a few glances, Xiao Chen rode off on the Demon Blood Vulture once more into the distance .
For half a month, they patrolled the place, killing various ferocious beasts .
With the experienced Demon Blood Vulture, Xiao Chen managed to avoid the terrifying ferocious beasts that should not be offended .
However, even so, he had several close brushes with death .
Once, there was an unremarkable-looking little bird that felt rather strange, so Xiao Chen took a few more glances .
That little bird suddenly turned very colorful . When it opened its beak, toxic green fluid consumed half the sky everywhere it passed . No ferocious beast could survive coming in contact with the toxic fluid .
Later, Xiao Chen came to know that this little bird was one of the ten great poisons of the Ash Gray Sea, known as the Flower Bird .
This bird looked as pretty as a flower . When it revealed its true form, it put hundreds of flowers to shame . However, not even a Holy Venerate would dare to come in contact with its toxin .
Fortunately, Xiao Chen had the Taiji Yinyang Flame Diagram to repulse the toxin . Otherwise, he definitely would have died .
After another half a month, Xiao Chen returned to the Black Cutlass, riding on the Demon Blood Vulture .
“Boom!”
The Demon Blood Vulture landed on the Spirit Beast Platform and spread its wings . Then, it glared at the other ferocious beasts, including the Cold Steel Eagles, immediately scaring them into trembling and moving aside .
“Big Brother, the Immemorial Demon Soul Formation now has five pearls lit up!”
Xiao Suo quickly ran over and shared this news with Xiao Chen .
After Xiao Chen’s one month of hard work killing hundreds of ferocious beasts, the other half of the fifth pearl finally lit up .
With five pearls lit up, the Yazi Beast Demon Soul was now as strong as a late-stage Star Venerate . Together with its identity as a Great Desolate Eon ferocious beast, it would actually be much harder to deal with than a true late-stage Star Venerate .
Xiao Chen nodded and said, “I’ll go and take a look . ”
When Xiao Chen entered the bottom level, he found blood mist permeating the entire place . There was practically nowhere to stand .
The blood mist, which originally covered just the formation, had leaked out and now filled every corner of the floor .
Xiao Chen observed carefully and discovered that the blood mist could infiltrate every part of the pirate ship .
Actually, the Black Cutlass had been slowly absorbing the blood mist at every moment .
However, it was clear that the rate of absorption could not keep up with the leaking blood mist .
Otherwise, the situation would not have turned out the way it was now, without even a place to set foot on .
“Big Brother, actually, I discovered this long ago . Although the ship’s defenses increased significantly because of it, I feel that the Black Cutlass will eventually turn into a demonic ship,” Xiao Suo said, somewhat worried as he stood beside Xiao Chen .
“A demonic ship?”
Xiao Chen smiled and asked, “Xiao Suo, what do you think of the Demonic Dao?”
Xiao Suo was stunned for a moment before he answered, “Actually, I have come in contact with many Demonic Dao cultivators . Many of them are ruthless characters without any morals . When they do things, they do not show any fear or restraint . They do not care about what means they use to accomplish their goals . ”
Xiao Chen walked over and continued, “What do you think of that Yan Zhe?”
Xiao Suo could not understand . “What does this have to do with Yan Zhe?”
Xiao Chen smiled and said, “Naturally, it does . That Yan Zhe appears to be very open and generous like a disciple of a righteous faction . However, his schemes are very insidious . Do you think he is of the Demonic Dao or the Righteous Dao?”
“This…”
“So, even if we use a demonic ship, we would not necessarily be of the Demonic Dao . Those who cultivate the Cultivation Techniques of the righteous faction might not be of the Righteous Dao . There is no need to worry too much . ”
These words immediately opened up Xiao Suo’s thoughts, loosening the knot in his heart .
“Most of the crew on this ship are young . Their mental states and willpower are not as resolute as yours and mine . After living with this blood mist for a long time, they will have difficulty escaping its influence . As the captain, your every action is very important . If you can guard your own heart, it will naturally have an effect and prevent them from falling into the Demonic Dao . ”
“I understand now . ”
Xiao Suo nodded . This time, his preoccupation was completely resolved . In the future, he would no longer feel so conflicted when facing the Immemorial Demon Soul Formation .
After all, the owner of this ship was actually Xiao Suo . Xiao Chen explained this so that Xiao Suo could have a better Black Cutlass in the future .
However, letting this blood mist leak out was truly a waste . It was also a potential danger .
I have to go and see Elder Tang and check how his cultivation of the Beast Taming Art is coming along and whether he can completely subdue that Demon Blood Vulture .

“Captain, that Xiao Chen has yet to request assistance . It looks like he has already adjusted to the Ash Gray Sea . ”
The Iron Horn Pirate Group’s core members surrounded Yan Zhe and discussed in whispers .
No one was willing to just watch this duck that he obtained just fly away like that .
Yan Zhe smiled faintly . “It is just the periphery of the Ash Gray Sea . He will run into trouble sooner or later . There is no rush . I have benefited greatly in this trip to the Grave Sea, gaining a deeper comprehension of mental states . I feel that it will not be long before I break through the Starry Sky Stage . ”
“Congratulations, Captain!”
On hearing these words, everyone immediately felt excited . Breaking through the Starry Sky Stage meant that their captain would advance to the second stage of the Cloud Sea Realm, the Holy Light Stage .
