The owners of these figures all came from the Yangxin Temple, and each of them had reached the Dao Integration Realm. Judging from their auras, their strength was not weak.

What's surprising is that they also exuded a faint demonic aura, but it was different from Zhang Shentong, and even from Chen Bagu, who looked more like a healthy and normal person.

The demonic energy emanating from these people was very weak.

It even gives people a sense of ethereal detachment.

As Lin Jinglong's gaze fell upon them, they were also quietly observing him.

Miaoxin is the elder of Yangxin Temple who guards Fengbei City.

When he saw the five people appear, a sense of relief appeared in his eyes. After all, Lin Jinglong had previously used powerful demonic arts as a member of the Ten Heavenly Clans.

He actually managed to completely eliminate the demonic influence on all the residents of the city, and even successfully saved those who were terminally ill.

Such methods put Miaoxin under immense pressure.

He wasn't confident he could defeat someone like Lin Jinglong all by himself.

However, when his five fellow disciples appeared.

He then completely relaxed.

"Senior Brother, this person is Lin Jinglong, from one of the Ten Clans of the Heavenly Dao, he..."

“I know his background.”

The old man, who was called the senior brother, had the Taoist name Xuanfa.

His gaze was fixed on Lin Jinglong.

Leading his fellow members of the Yangxin Temple, he made a grand entrance before Lin Jinglong. During the process, he looked around and observed the changes in the city's residents, already having some guesses in his mind.

For them, the worst change was that Lin Jinglong had come to resolve this den of demons.

In fact, they have always been clear about their views on cultivating the mind.

This demonic cave could spiral out of control at any moment, unleashing massive amounts of demonic energy and potentially altering the celestial phenomena of the entire Northern Region.

But they never thought of stopping it.

They even went so far as to develop a demonic technique called the Demonic Qi Nourishing Heart Technique to deal with the rampant demonic energy in the Northern Region.

If one day, chaos truly breaks out.

Therefore, their Yangxin Temple can still refine demonic crystals and reap huge profits in the demonic-filled Northern Region.

As for the ordinary people living in the Northern Region...

What does this have to do with them?

This is what Xuanfa and the others truly thought.

This was also the result of their years of preparation.

However, they speculated that Lin Jinglong's purpose was to come and directly suppress the demonic energy erupting within the Demon Cave, or even to completely eradicate the Demon Cave.

This is not a good thing for them.

Xuanfa appeared in front of Lin Jinglong.

He bowed and slowly said, "Amitabha!"

"Fellow Daoist, what brings you to Fengbei City?"

Although they were still in a tense standoff just now, after Xuanfa arrived, he seemed to be unwilling to clash with Lin Jinglong, and his attitude was relatively peaceful.

Miaoxin, standing behind, had a glint in her eye.

He felt there was no need to be so polite to Lin Jinglong.

Anyway, they have a lot of people on their side, and all the experts have already arrived. If Lin Jinglong has any objections, then he can just take action.

Just slap him to death!

He was very wary of Lin Jinglong.

They felt that if this person wasn't eliminated, it would affect their business of cultivating the mind.

After Lin Jinglong saw him bow,

With his hands behind his back, he calmly said, "I came here for only one thing: to completely resolve the chaos of the Northern Region."

"This den of demons will be suppressed by our Yangxin Temple."

"Suppression?"

Lin Jinglong couldn't help but laugh when he heard this.

He shook his head and said, "Don't joke with me like that. If your goal was to suppress the Demon Cave, you would have already resolved this matter. Otherwise, you wouldn't be hiding like cowards!"

Over the years, the name of Yangxin Temple has occasionally been mentioned in the martial arts world, especially because of the existence of the magic crystal, which has allowed them to reap a lot of benefits.

However, Lin Jinglong had never imagined that the magic crystals of their Yangxin Temple actually came from this Northern Demon Cave.

He didn't even know that there was a demon cave in the Northern Region.

All I can say is that these clandestine forces are incredibly adept at hiding their true nature.

"Lin Jinglong, you mustn't be disrespectful to our Yangxin Temple!"

After Miao Xin gained help, his attitude became even more assertive. Hearing Lin Jinglong's sarcastic remarks, he also revealed his dissatisfaction in his words.

Lan Yuexin, who was standing next to Lin Jinglong, stepped forward.

She looked around and couldn't help but sneer.

"Your Yangxin Temple is nothing but a place that uses the Demon Cave to seek personal gain. Otherwise, the ordinary people in this city wouldn't have become like this; they are all slaves of the Yangxin Temple!"

"And who are you?"

Xuanfa was already having a headache when he saw Lin Jinglong's tough attitude. Then he suddenly saw Lan Yuexin, who was also quite strong and had a tough attitude. A little fear showed in his eyes.

"We come from the Demon-Slaying Palace!"

Upon hearing this title, the people of Yangxin Temple fell silent once again.

People from the Demon-Slaying Palace have also come?

The apprehension in their eyes became increasingly apparent.

Looking at the people behind Lin Jinglong and Lan Yuexin, their senior brother Xuanfa finally let out a cold snort.

"Lin Jinglong, and the people from the Demon-Slaying Palace, don't blame me for not warning you, this matter has nothing to do with you. Our Yangxin Temple will be responsible for suppressing the demonic chaos, but if you insist on causing trouble, then we can only ask you to leave."

"How are you going to ask us to leave?"

Lin Jinglong brandished the demonic sword in his hand, and the demonic energy emanating from his body was somewhat chilling, seemingly resonating with the nearby demonic cave.

Xuanfa simply waved his hand.

The others around him quickly dispersed to the vicinity.

Everyone began to stare at Lin Jinglong with predatory eyes.

"Set up a formation! Regardless of this person's purpose, since he's come for the Demon Cave, we must eliminate him!"

"yes!"

The surrounding crowd dispersed.

There were a total of six experts at the Dao Integration Realm.

Together with the other hundreds of disciples of Yangxin Temple, they had already rushed to this place from all directions within the city.

It seems they intend to surround and kill Lin Jinglong.

Not far away was the city lord Xie Tianyang. Although he was called the city lord, in reality, the control of the city had long been transferred to Yangxin Temple. He was just an outsider.

This was to give an explanation to the ordinary people who were affected by the demonic energy. He was often blamed for many things, which is why he was usually sullen.

He had originally hoped to have a chance to get rid of the demonic energy within him.

He placed his hopes on Lin Jinglong.

But just after Lin Jinglong dealt with the demonic energy, everyone else in the city had recovered, yet the city lord was not welcomed by Lin Jinglong.

He glanced at Lin Jinglong with a look of resentment.

"You're targeting me, aren't you? Then you can just wait to die. The people of Yangxin Temple have invested so many resources in these magic crystals, robbing others of their wealth, it's like killing their parents!"
