Free Web NovelChapter 53: Chapter 53: Black Lotus Sect Elder! Great Demon Burning Evil Body
The three great Demon Sects within the Great Xia Dynasty, including the Black Lotus Sect, were all immensely powerful and not to be trifled with.
There was once a rumor that the three great Demon Sects were actually factions that had split off from a single, original Demon Sect.
Of course, it was hard to tell if this rumor was true, and no one knew who had started it.
The Soul-devouring Demon Sect, however, was most famous for its Body Cultivation Demon Skills.
Su Bai even felt that his own Golden Body Technique, despite having reached the Returning to the Essence stage, only made his Physique a slight notch stronger than this man’s.
’This felon’s Demonic Body Cultivation Technique seems incredibly strong!’
Just a moment ago, Su Bai had imprinted a sliver of his Divine Sense into the felon’s body, successfully containing the man within the Purification Tripod.
’If this person dies, I might be able to obtain the Body Cultivation Technique he practices!’
’Once I get this Cultivation Technique and raise it to the Returning to the Essence stage, if I stack it with my Golden Body Technique, my Physique will probably improve dramatically!’
Su Bai thought for a moment, a flicker of anticipation in his heart.
The old Prison Guard beside him explained, "Lord Su, it seems a lord from the Demon-slaying Bureau is interrogating this person today."
"Alright! I understand. Let’s continue the patrol."
Su Bai nodded, then led the old Prison Guard toward the next cell.
"Yes!"
The old Prison Guard walked slightly behind him and to the side.
Meanwhile, Su Bai checked the information on the newly contained felon in the Purification Tripod within his mind.
[Criminal: Wang Lingxiao]
[Sin Level: Six-Star]
[Strength: Extraordinary Ninth Layer]
[Status: Lightly Injured (Imprisoned)]
[Suppression Involvement: 1%]
[Reward: 270 Experience Points/hour]
This man, Wang Lingxiao, was the head disciple of an Elder from the Soul-devouring Demon Sect.
He also had a Cultivation of the Extraordinary Realm Ninth Layer and was a member of a Demon Sect, but he yielded 70 more Experience Points than the Red Fire Great Demon that Su Bai had previously contained.
This meant that even though they were in the same Realm, Wang Lingxiao could probably wipe the floor with the Red Fire Great Demon.
Although their Realms were the same, there were still differences in strength. Clearly, Wang Lingxiao was a cut above ordinary experts at the Extraordinary Realm Ninth Layer.
Otherwise, it wouldn’t have been necessary for a major figure from the Demon-slaying Bureau at the Innate Realm to personally step in and capture him.
’This Wang Lingxiao is quite the Demon Dao genius!’
After a moment of thought, Su Bai proceeded to view the man’s past memories. freёwebnovel.com
In the visions, Su Bai saw the man.
He burned, killed, pillaged, and plundered—there was no evil he wouldn’t do.
He frequently bullied men and assaulted women. Not just ordinary women, either; even female cultivators he set his sights on were ultimately hunted down and brutally murdered.
His evil was simply boundless.
One day, while passing through a county in the Jiangnan region of the Great Xia Dynasty, this demon was overcome by lust and actually refined tens of thousands of the county’s women into his personal Furnace Tripods.
In the end, he went so far as to refine all these women into Human Pills.
He swallowed them to achieve breakthroughs in his Demon Skill.
Seeing this, Su Bai frowned and decided not to watch any further.
’This demon truly deserves to die!’
’Compared to this demon, those Flower Thieves Su Bai saw in the C-Class Prison earlier almost looked handsome and harmless!’
’Of course, those subhuman things should still report to the Underworld as soon as possible!’
Snapping back to his senses, Su Bai continued walking forward.
「Some time later.」
Su Bai finally finished patrolling the entire B Prison Area, containing all the new convicts in his Purification Tripod.
His daily Experience Point earnings had increased once again.
By the time he finished his patrol, it was already noon.
It was time for lunch.
Su Bai took the old Prison Guard to the Prison Suppression Bureau’s cafeteria.
As the top power within the prison, the Prison Suppression Bureau’s cafeteria was quite luxuriously built.
The head chefs inside were all special talents poached from various restaurants.
And the ingredients they used for cooking were all meticulously selected.
As a result, the finished dishes were even more delicious than the food at ordinary restaurants.
Su Bai took out his Token to show his identity, then sat down with the old Prison Guard and a few colleagues to enjoy the meal.
When had the old Prison Guard ever experienced such a scene?
He sat beside Su Bai.
Though excited, he picked at his food cautiously, trembling with nervousness.
Su Bai smiled and gestured for him not to be so reserved.
The other colleagues from the Prison Suppression Bureau didn’t give him a hard time either, offering amiable smiles.
They could all see that Su Bai was highly favored by Lord Chen, so naturally, they wouldn’t cross Su Bai over something so trivial.
After the meal, Su Bai had the old Prison Guard head back first.
Next, he needed to head to Demon Suppression Zone One in the A-Class Prison to begin his patrol.
The convicts held there were extremely dangerous—most were terrifying Demon Fiends. The old Prison Guard was old and frail; if he went in, he might be harmed by the Demon Qi.
After entering Demon Suppression Zone One of the A-Class Prison, Su Bai was accompanied by a young Prison Guard from the A-Class Prison.
Along the way, he heard the furious roars of countless Demon Fiends.
Standing before a deep black prison cell, Su Bai sent his Divine Thoughts probing inside.
The next moment, Su Bai saw a gaunt old man sitting inside.
The man’s expression was calm, but his face was crimson. A thin Crystal Chain pierced the spot between his eyebrows.
An extremely terrifying Demon Evil Qi emanated from his body.
His finger bones were pierced by narrow golden chains, from which trickled blackish-red blood.
The strength of his aura far surpassed the Extraordinary Realm Ninth Layer.
Clearly, this man was a great Demon of the Innate Realm.
The Prison Guard at his side immediately explained, "Lord Su, this man is a newly promoted Elder of the Black Lotus Sect. His Cultivation is at the Innate Realm Third Layer, and his name is Venerable Great Demon."
"It’s said he cultivates a terrifying Demon Body, called something like... the Great Demon Burning Evil Body!"
"Anyone tainted by his Evil Qi, even someone whose Cultivation has reached the Extraordinary Realm, will be corroded by the Evil Qi and eventually become one of his puppets!" ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com
"This Demon’s strength is immense!"
"I heard that the number of Innate Realm experts who have died at his hands is more than you can count on two hands!"
"My lord must be careful!"
As the Prison Guard spoke, he glanced at the cell, his heart filled with dread.
This Demon was simply too terrifying.
There had been a few Prison Guards in the past who, just by passing by, had inexplicably lost consciousness and ended up as puppets.
Their ultimate fate, of course, needs no explanation.
Su Bai’s expression flickered. He then asked, "If this Demon is so terrifying, who was it that suppressed and brought him in?"
"It was Lord Chen of the Prison Suppression Bureau. He personally took action, captured him not long ago, and sent him here!"
The young Prison Guard thought for a moment before quickly replying.
His heart was filled with awe for Lord Chen of the Prison Suppression Bureau.
’Lord Chen?’
Su Bai understood.
’This Demon might be powerful, but compared to Chen Tianfeng, he is more than just a single notch weaker!’
’A Black Lotus Sect Elder... the Great Demon Burning Evil Body!’
’This is likely an incredibly profound Cultivation Technique!’
A glint appeared in Su Bai’s eyes.
Then, he activated a sliver of his Divine Thoughts.
And sent it invading forward.
