...
Time flows like water.
In a blink, more than six months have passed.
During this time, Lin Zheyu resumed a peaceful life.
Aside from going to the Cultivation Marketplace to sell off the useless items obtained after slaying the three cultivators and acquiring six powerful demon skills, he kept a low profile.
As summer passed and autumn came.
The breeze blew, and leaves fell.
Three figures swiftly darted through the forest, their faces showing a hint of the joy of escaping death.
"Not bad, you’re quite fast."
Suddenly, a mocking voice came from in front of them, causing their expressions to change drastically.
"It’s you!"
"If you let us go, I can tell you a secret that could..."
"Ah—"
Suddenly, the man who had just spoken let out a miserable scream, and his head flew into the sky.
Seeing this, the other two were terrified, and the thought of a desperate fight disappeared without a trace.
Swoosh—swoosh—
As they turned around, a blade light flashed like lightning, and their heads thudded to the ground.
A headless body rushed forward a short distance before collapsing with a bang.
"Don’t move!"
Lin Zheyu’s calm voice echoed.
The one who survived shivered all over, their legs going weak.
"Please, don’t kill me!"
The woman said in terror as she tore open her clothes, revealing the smooth white curves of her chest.
"As long as you don’t kill me, I’ll agree to anything. I can tell you a secret, a secret tied to a major event that’s coming!"
Tears streamed down the woman’s face as she attempted to seduce Lin Zheyu.
"Are you from the Sealed Demon Valley?"
Lin Zheyu spoke coldly, seemingly oblivious to the woman’s exposed form.
These three were his targets, the ones he was tasked to capture.
According to the information, they were spies hidden in the Sealed Demon Valley and fled the moment they were discovered.
"Yes, Master."
The woman quickly replied.
Feeling the cold sensation at her neck, she dared not move.
"Interesting."
"Do you have any cultivation techniques from the Sealed Demon Valley?"
Lin Zheyu showed a hint of curiosity on his face.
The Sealed Demon Valley is one of the four great sects of the Guanghua Domain, alongside the Infinite Sect, War God Sect, and Cyan Rainbow Sect.
This sect is extremely mysterious.
Lin Zheyu had been in Wuling City for a long time, hearing of it but never seeing anyone from there. freёwebnovel.com
"No."
"The cultivation techniques of the Sealed Demon Valley are incredibly unique. We’ve signed a contract not to disclose them. Apart from that condition, I’ll agree to anything you ask."
The woman quickly replied.
"Oh."
Lin Zheyu felt a bit disappointed; he contemplated for a moment and said, "Release the True Essence inside your body and let me see."
"Yes, Master!"
The woman responded.
She looked panicked as the True Essence in her body surged out.
Suddenly, a sinister look appeared on her face, and dazzling ghostly light blossomed from her body.
"Hmph!"
Lin Zheyu snorted coldly, and with a puff, the woman’s eyes widened, and her head thudded to the ground.
"The True Essence is indeed unique compared to that of an ordinary Martial Artist."
Lin Zheyu murmured to himself.
He felt that the Sealed Demon Valley was somewhat different.
The name alone is unusual. Moreover, it remains shrouded in mystery, hardly ever making an appearance.
Lin Zheyu squatted down, searched through the bodies, but found nothing of value.
He shook his head slightly.
Picking up the three heads on the ground, he turned and headed toward Wuling City.
"Hmm!"
Lin Zheyu let out a soft sound, pausing for a moment.
He turned his head slightly and looked forward to the right, a smile emerging at the corner of his mouth.
"Interesting, truly a coincidence!"
Lin Zheyu chuckled coldly.
A familiar aura appeared within his range of perception.
His figure moved and vanished instantly.
Swoosh—swoosh—
Two figures rushed through the forest, their faces showing a hint of smugness.
"Mr. Qian, is this information accurate?"
Muu Feng asked curiously as he watched Qian Baiyan maintain a constant smile, appearing in a good mood.
The last time they ventured into the ruins, Muu Feng had almost lost his life.
Fortunately, he paid some price and narrowly survived.
"Absolutely."
"However, it’s extremely dangerous, located in the Southern Barbarians region."
"That area has been occupied by the Nine Nether Sect, and several space-time nodes have been opened, with demons running rampant."
"So, we need to find a few more helpers."
Qian Baiyan said with a smile.
As long as they obtained that Sunflower Water Ghost Lotus, they’d have the ingredients to concoct the Transforming Essence Elixir.
Once the elixir was made, he could begin his plan to advance to the Golden Core stage.
"Why not invite Mr. Tu?" Muu Feng asked.
They had always cooperated well with Mr. Tu. Coupled with Mr. Tu’s strong Divine Sense, he had a much keener perception of danger than ordinary people.
Acting together with Mr. Tu often allowed them to turn misfortune into fortune.
"Mr. Tu will be joining us as well."
"This time, the level of danger is quite high. To prevent any accidents, we need to recruit several powerful helpers."
Qian Baiyan smiled and said.
"With Mr. Tu around, I’m relieved." Muu Feng breathed a sigh of relief.
Their speed was fast; with a flash of their Escape Light, they flew swiftly into the distance.
Rustle, rustle~~
An ordinary-looking middle-aged man strolled leisurely through the forest.
He held a long knife in hand, cautiously on guard against his surroundings.
Suddenly, two streams of Escape Light approached rapidly from afar, flying overhead.
"Hey, there’s actually a Martial Artist here!"
"Gutsy!"
"An ordinary Martial Artist dares to appear here." Muu Feng said with a smile as he looked at the man on the ground.
As his Spiritual Sense scanned, the man’s strength was revealed.
The energy in his body, distinct from Spiritual Power, was identical to the True Essence of a Martial Artist, easily recognizable.
