Night falls.

The moon hung diagonally above the main hall. Although it was only half crescent, it exposed the steps in front of the main hall to the night.

Shen Jingyuan stood in the main hall, where Yuan Shouyi used to stand, staring at the door with an expressionless face.

As time gets closer.

Shen Jingyuan vaguely felt a sense of oppression and quickly mobilized his spiritual power to gain a firm footing.

Then, a voice was heard.

"You also want to become an immortal?

The straightforward words and the doubt in his tone seemed as if he had known for a long time that the person in the main hall was not Yuan Shouyi.

However, he had no intention of looking for anyone. Instead, he revealed a bit of complacency about his own status. He was afraid that Shen Jingyuan in the main hall would also admire him like Yuan Shouyi.

Shen Jingyuan said nothing.

He just walked out step by step, trying to use his spiritual power to catch this thing that pretended to be an immortal and deceived people.

The spiritual power mixed with demonic energy was searching in the air, but it also secretly set up a formation to cover the entire Chongming Mountain.

Black energy emerged from Shen Jingyuan's body again, and the color in his pupils became darker and darker.

"Why do you have such a strong demonic aura?"

He questioned, and Juan attacked Shen Jingyuan with his spiritual power.

The situation of the enemy in the dark was not conducive to Shen Jingyuan's defense, but what was surprising was that those spiritual powers that were obviously offensive were instantly entangled by the black air around him when they fell on Shen Jingyuan.

Then comes assimilation.

He had not expected such a strange scene. Without hesitation, he attacked with his spiritual power again.

But Shen Jingyuan just sneered, and very calmly intercepted the spiritual power attacking him again, allowing it to be assimilated by the demonic power.

Tiandao is confused.

How could it not know that in its little world, there could be people more powerful than itself?

It carefully investigated Shen Jingyuan's identity, wanting to know what went wrong.

But in a moment, it learned the identity of the person in the hall - Shen Jingyuan.

"Who are you?" Shen Jingyuan asked in a cold voice, but his eyes were fixed on one place.

"Heaven's Way."

The Heavenly Dao did not lie, it was indeed called this name, and even when calling itself this, it did not feel the slightest bit embarrassed.

Perhaps because the name was too ridiculous, Shen Jingyuan sneered again.

"Heavenly Way?"

"Are you the one who wrote the letter to Yuan Shouyi?"

As Shen Jingyuan spoke, the peach wood sword in his hand was already filled with spiritual energy, and he asked while suppressing the anger in his heart.

Tiandao: "Yes, is there a problem?"

Tiandao did not realize his mistake.

In its view, this is just an ordinary world and there are no monsters at all.

The reason why it became like this was due to a mistake it made while working. It accidentally leaked some of its spiritual power, which fell into the mortal world, causing a small number of living things, or even dead things, to have spiritual consciousness, and through cultivation, they became demons.

But only a few can get the opportunity. In this world, not everyone knows about the existence of monsters.

If you let it develop, problems will arise sooner or later.

It just wanted to completely eliminate this error before the superiors found out, so that these problems would not occur again.

Without leaving a trace.

As the way of heaven, it cannot directly interfere in the affairs of the human world. It can only find a few people with extraordinary talents and let them become monster catchers by chance to help it accomplish its mission.

However, humans are not so easy to control, and it can only use this method to become an immortal and trick them into helping it.

It’s a pity that even if I really select carefully, there are still very few people who can truly become monster catchers.

Thinking of this, Tiandao looked at Shen Jingyuan with some anticipation in his eyes.

But what it waited for was not Shen Jingyuan's admiration for it, but a sword that left no room for maneuver.

The white light wrapped around the wooden sword and passed through a ball of gas.

If the Heavenly Dao had a body, he would definitely vomit blood on the spot.

There was no time to question, Shen Jingyuan's murderous intent made Tiandao subconsciously want to run away.

If you don’t want to, then don’t want to.

Instead of wasting time and energy here, it is better to find someone else.

People are always greedy, and they just don't believe that they can't find help.

But just as he was about to run, he found that the entire Chongming Mountain was under the control of the people in this temple.

Tiandao looked at Shen Jingyuan, who looked like a monster, and naturally had murderous intentions in his heart. However, when he thought of the things he had calculated, he spoke hypocritically again:

"Your anger and resentment are simply because you can't accept your mother's death."

"I can bring your mother back to life, as long as you are willing to complete the great cause mentioned in the letter. How about that?"

Tian Dao boasted that he had some knowledge of human nature. Looking at Shen Jingyuan who had stopped, he spoke again: "If you don't want to kill the peach monster imprisoned in the Demon Locking Tower, I can ignore it."

What Tiandao didn't expect was that Shen Jingyuan didn't agree.

"great cause?"

"Kill all the monsters in the world and then become an immortal?"

"Can the Way of Heaven be so absurd?"

Shen Jingyuan asked three questions in a row, but his tone was full of ridicule.

There was no longer any spiritual energy lingering around him, only demonic power filled with deep resentment.

Tiandao: ...

Is it ridiculous?

But if it weren't for it, these so-called monsters would have no consciousness at all, and would spend their entire lives just being slaughtered and eaten, or being dead objects bought and sold by people.

It's just about taking back this specialness, what's so ridiculous about that?

When it is punished, will these monsters be willing to stand up and take the blame for it?

But the way of heaven overlooked that if this world really could not accommodate monsters, then no matter how great the opportunity was, it would be impossible to gain spiritual consciousness and succeed in cultivation.

If there really is a punishment, how could it be hidden from the higher-ups with just the laws of nature in this small world?

Tiandao already has the answer in his mind.

Shen Jingyuan alone cannot destroy it.

It is the way of heaven. If it is really killed by a demon catcher who is full of demonic energy, wouldn't it be a laughing stock?

Tiandao thought so and didn't even want to argue with Shen Jingyuan, so he prepared to leave Chongming Mountain directly.

In front of the main hall door, the peach wood sword in Shen Jingyuan's hand was already swirling with black energy.

But this time, Shen Jingyuan did not make a move.

My feet seemed to be rooted in the ground and I couldn't pull them out at all.

The corners of Shen Jingyuan's mouth curved slightly: So this is the power of heaven.

But...that's all!

Tian Dao could naturally feel Shen Jingyuan's murderous gaze, but Shen Jingyuan was still too...

Depend on!

Tiandao couldn't help but curse.

He thought it was just an ordinary attack, but he didn't expect that the demonic power was like a hook, constantly sucking his spiritual power.

"Chen Jingyuan, are you sure you want to be the sinner and go against the Heavenly Dao for a few monsters that I created because of my momentary confusion?"

Tiandao did not expect to encounter such a change, but he did not take it seriously.

Shen Jingyuan did not respond.

Tiandao fell silent for a moment: If it didn't take action, did it really think he could kill it whenever he wanted?
