Three years ago, he was the young master of the most prominent family in the capital, but due to his grandfather's superstition, he was sent to a Taoist temple where he suffered hardship yet ma...
Originally, Chen Bagu was quite wary of Lin Ruchu, who had suddenly been taken in as a disciple by Zhang Shentong and became the authentic inheritor of the Heavenly Demon Reincarnation Technique.
But when he saw how respectful Lin Ruchu was to him...
Even if it was just talk, at least his attitude showed that he was subservient to him, which made Chen Bagu secretly pleased.
For many years, the people of Tianlang City had kept a low profile.
Moreover, he was trapped in the harsh and cold Northern Region. Although he cultivated the Heavenly Demon Reincarnation Technique, he had been hiding his true strength and waiting with his master for the right time to change.
But it's impossible not to feel envious.
For him, Lin Ruchu was a figure who was once considered a very important and powerful person.
Moreover, Lin Ruchu was a Dao Integration Supreme who achieved enlightenment in the Holy Realm before the Heavenly Change, so her status is actually higher than his Dao Integration Supreme.
But now, even someone like Lin Ruchu can only show the utmost respect when facing me.
Chen Bagu felt that his years of dormancy had not been in vain. He believed that as long as they could survive the Elders' Council, their Tianlang City would surely rise to prominence in any corner of the world!
Just as he was secretly pleased with himself, Lin Ruchu spoke again.
"Brother City Lord, could you grant me a chance to enter the Demon Cave?"
"Um?"
Chen Bagu's smug feeling was suddenly abruptly ended.
He frowned and stared intently at Lin Ruchu.
"Did you learn about the Demon Cave from your master?"
"That's right. Now that I have mastered the Heavenly Demon Reincarnation Technique, I need to strengthen my body to reach the perfect state. But I am only a Yin spirit. My master wants me to enter the Demon Cave and use innate demonic energy to forge a demonic Yin body!"
"Demon Yin Body... Heh, if you do that, you'll pay a heavy price. You might lose your mind. Are you sure you want to enter the demon's lair?"
"I'm willing to take the gamble and uphold reason with my unwavering faith."
Lin Ruchu said firmly.
Chen Bagu hesitated. If Lin Ruchu entered the Demon Cave and achieved the Demon Yin Body, it would be equivalent to having a supreme-level physique, but she would also pay a heavy price.
The biggest risk is becoming neither human nor ghost.
At the same time, they may also lose their rationality.
He became a madman possessed by demons.
"Senior brother, don't worry about it. If I lose the bet, you can take action to kill me, Lin Ruchu, and prevent me from becoming a complete demon and wreaking havoc on Tianlang City."
Lin Ruchu said with a smile.
After pondering for a long time, Chen Bagu finally nodded in agreement.
"It just so happens that the seal on that demon cave has recently loosened, and the power of the Heavenly Dao is gradually becoming uncontrollable. This is your last chance; perhaps this is the will of Heaven."
Lin Ruchu's eyes widened in shock. Knowing that time was of the essence, he immediately requested to go to the location of the Demon Cave as soon as possible.
So Chen Bagu pointed him in a direction.
Actually, it's not far from Sirius City, just a few miles away, in a small mountain covered in snow, but there's actually a tunnel that leads deep into that demon cave.
"There is a Heavenly Dao seal in the Demon Cave, which is suspected to be the work of an ancient powerhouse. When the world changed, the Demon Cave and the seal worked at the same time. But the seal is from so long ago. After you go there, don't mess with those seals."
“I understand, I’m not interested in the Way of Heaven.”
Lin Ruchu immediately rushed to that place.
After Lin Ruchu left, Shi Qiansui, who had left earlier, rushed into the hall. He seemed to have left, but in fact he was still standing outside the door. He seemed to know everything about the conversation between Chen Bagu and Lin Ruchu.
"Lord of the city, let this person approach the Demon Cave. If he manages to break through the restrictions of the Demon Yin Body, he may threaten our Heavenly Wolf City."
"That was not my will, but my master's..."
Chen Bagu agreed not only because he wanted to use Lin Ruchu to help him fight against the Elders' Council, but also because it was the will of his master, the powerful figure behind the scenes, which he had no choice but to obey.
Even Shi Qiansui could only sigh.
Just as they continued to discuss the matter of the elders' council and thought about how to deal with it, a sudden roar came from inside the city.
Lin Ruchu, who had already left Tianlang City, turned her head.
He saw several streaks of light tear through the snow curtain from the southern sky, striking Sirius City at an extremely fast speed.
A rich, almost pitch-black, dark gray aura.
They were rushing towards Tianlang City with a roar.
After it fell, it looked like a shooting star hitting the ground.
That terrifying and malevolent aura destroyed hundreds of buildings in Tianlang City, leaving the city's martial artists and cultivators in a state of utter devastation.
Lin Ruchu was stunned for a moment.
"That's the Suspended Spirit Heart Sutra? The people from Suspended Spirit Temple have come to attack! Besides Master Suspended Spirit, there's also Lin Jinglong and others!"
His eyes flashed with a fierce light.
He wished he could use the Heavenly Demon Reincarnation Technique to rush over right then and there, find Lin Jinglong, and take revenge on him!
However, he also understood that his current strength was still insufficient. He needed to temper his complete physique through the demonic energy in the Demon Cave before he could possibly reach the realm of the Supreme Being of the Dao.
"Chen Bagu did not know that the so-called master who was hiding in the shadows appreciated me far more than Chen Bagu. I was the true successor."
"Demon Yin Body, hehe, it can't affect me at all."
"Let's improve our cultivation level first!"
Lin Ruchu looked down on the Lord of Tianlang City from the bottom of her heart, feeling that if she had replaced Chen Bagu, she would have made Tianlang City rise to prominence long ago.
In particular, Chen Bagu has a powerful figure behind him.
He has far more information than he does.
If he had known about the changes in the world and many subsequent events beforehand, he wouldn't have ended up in this situation.
Lin Ruchu shook her head and headed to the Demon Cave alone.
As for what happened inside Sirius City...
He simply acted as if it had nothing to do with him.
At this moment, several streaks of light stopped in the sky, and the seven people looked down at the scene of widespread suffering in the city.
The Spirit Master's eyes held a hint of pleasure.
"The city of Tianlang has a population of 300,000, all of whom are martial artists and cultivators who belong to Chen Bagu and are on par with the Elders' Council. This uncontrolled force will become the stepping stone for the true rise of our Ten Heavenly Clans!"
Although only seven of the ten Heavenly Clans remained after a series of events, they have strategically shifted from defense to offense.
They used Sirius City as a stepping stone to establish their authority.
This is a consensus among everyone!
As for the life and death of the martial artists in the city, no one cared. After all, since they belonged to the Sky Wolf City camp, they were destined to fight against the Elders' Council.
"Slaughter every last survivor of Sky Wolf City!"
Tie Hanshan and Li Gong had sinister expressions.
They were the two who suffered the most from the persecution by Tianlang City, so their revenge this time was exceptionally fierce.
It looks like they're planning to massacre the entire city!
