The Programmer Cultivator

The four of them had just rushed to Celestial Spirit City. They saw the mountain where the Qu Family’s estate was located and had paused, not yet even beginning their descent, when several more streaks of light appeared behind them.

Sect Leader Dang Jun’an; Fanx Qingyong, head of the Miscellaneous Affairs Department; Yang Longying, head of the Resources Department; and Zhou Jiuyan, a senior leader from the Law Enforcement Team, arrived together. They brought with them a large contingent from the Elixir Treatment Department.

The four who were about to descend paused. Looking at Dang Jun’an at the head of the group, Guk Liancai asked, "Sect Leader, what is all this?"

Dang Jun’an and the heads of the four core departments came before the four of them. He looked at them and said, "With the commotion you all caused, how could we not take notice?

Besides, shortly after you left, Second Great-Uncle... I mean, Master Dang, sent a message requesting that a group of disciples from the Elixir Department be dispatched for a rescue mission.

Although Master Dang didn’t elaborate, requesting so many disciples from the Elixir Department, combined with the disturbance you caused, made us decide to come together. What’s the situation now? What exactly happened?"

"We’ve only just arrived ourselves and haven’t seen the situation yet. Master Dang, however, got here before us. Since he notified you, he has likely brought the situation under control. As for what exactly happened..."

Gan Zili paused, then looked at Zhang Deming and said, "This whole incident started because of one of Junior Brother Zhang’s ’strolls’ into the mountains. So, you should be the one to explain, Junior Brother Zhang."

Gan Zili deliberately emphasized the word "strolls," his resentment on the matter running deep.

First, he had gone into the mountains, and then his Daoist Attendant had achieved Enlightenment Dao, skipping several cultivation tiers. They hadn’t even dealt with that incident yet.

Because it was Zhang Deming’s Daoist Attendant, someone quite close to him, the three of them hadn’t acted rashly and had simply left the attendant waiting in the Cyan Wood Secret Realm.

They had planned to wait for Zhang Deming to return and question him thoroughly when he had time. After all, while advancing to the Duality stage wasn’t a major event, an Apprentice jumping straight to Duality was certainly no small matter.

But before they could even begin to address that, he came back from his ’stroll’ and triggered this huge incident. Such a ’stroll’ was truly baffling.

’Was it really just a stroll, or did he discover something and use it as an excuse to bring this matter to light? Who could say?’

Zhang Deming paused at his words. Seeing everyone looking at him, he began to drift downward as he quickly and briefly explained, "I’d grown restless from the quiet and felt the urge for some activity, so I took a trip to the back mountains. By a twist of fate, I discovered something related to the Five Elements Remnants.

I was originally going to find Master Dang and ask if he wanted to go take a look. But just as I was about to act, a problem arose with an Affiliated Family here—they were being slaughtered by the Five Elements Remnants. As soon as we got the news, we rushed over.

As for the situation with the Qu Family, we’ve only just arrived ourselves, so we don’t know the details. Only Master Dang would know..."

"HISS..."

"Bastards!!!"

"These goddamned Demon Cultivators!"

Before Zhang Deming could finish speaking, the group had already arrived at the Qu Family estate. Guided by the auras, they drifted down onto the Qu Family Plaza.

Even after Qu Qingxian’s intervention had improved things, the entire plaza was still like a purgatory on earth.

The Qu Family disciples, most of whom had low Cultivation, were in exceptionally tragic conditions.

Many of the disciples, in particular, were unable to accept the immense trauma and the things they had done while under control. Most had either gone mad or become completely numb.

For all these reasons, the entire Qu Family Plaza was cast in an even more tragic light. Seeing this, Zhang Deming also fell silent.

Many of the Elixir Cultivators needed no prompting. They proactively spread out and quickly got to work.

Including Dang Jun’an and the others who had arrived with him, those who knew any healing techniques immediately began to help get the situation under control.

At that moment, the scene on the plaza resembled a disaster relief effort from his past life. The crowd lost some of their ethereal, immortal-like air and were filled with a sense of humanity.

Zhang Deming was no exception. Jade Seedlings sprouted from his body, rapidly producing Jade Leaves brimming with Vitality. He used vines to curl around them and feed them to the most severely injured, which could be considered a form of mass healing.

The healing from his Growth Technique, which had mutated upon fusing at the Law Level, was already quite remarkable. Its effects were nearly on par with a large-scale Law Level Healing Technique.

If he added the Vitality from his Dark Pawn, it could even surpass some Law Level Healing Techniques. Of course, this wasn’t a crisis, so he wouldn’t expend a large amount of the Vitality stored in his Dark Pawn.

His Spiritual Power reserves were another matter; he could replenish them moments after they were depleted. But as for Vitality, because his Dark Pawn was only Tier Three, it couldn’t yet complete the conversion. Therefore, aside from siphoning it from beings of the same tier, he could only accumulate it bit by bit himself.

Thus, the Vitality in his Dark Pawn was very precious to him and not to be used lightly.

Zhang Deming continued this for quite a while. He only stopped his healing once all the disciples from the Elixir Department had completed their various preparations and taken over the entire plaza.

With their hands now free, the non-Elixir Department members who had arrived gathered on the high platform of the plaza in front of the Qu Family Hall.

At this moment, on the high platform, Dang Jun’an stood with his hands clasped behind his back, frowning as he looked down at the scene below.

Several white Jade Discs spun and danced in the sky, searching meticulously. They were attempting to find clues about the perpetrators and track down the two who had escaped.

And behind Dang Xiangjun, Qu Qingxian stood with his head lowered, a Black Dragon coiled around his body.

The reason he maintained this state was because he was in a peculiar condition. His technique was in the middle of promoting and mutating, and before his Cultivation had finished advancing, Qu Qingxian didn’t dare to rashly retract the Black Dragon.

He was afraid that a single careless move might accelerate its leap to the Law Level, and if something went wrong, he would be done for.
