"What?!"

When everyone heard this, they were shocked beyond words.

An elder couldn't help but step forward and asked in a trembling voice.

"Palace Master, you... you gave nearly half of the treasures in the treasury... to Li Lingge?"

"How could the Palace Master make such a ridiculous decision!"

"I'm afraid Li Lingge may have given the Palace Master some kind of magic potion."

Jiang Feiyan glanced at everyone coldly, her eyes like knives, and her tone was icy: "I have my own arrangements, you don't need to say anything more."

Everyone was frightened by her cold gaze and dared not speak again, but the confusion and shock in their hearts did not diminish in the slightest.

"Could it be that the Palace Master really has some deeper meaning?"

"But the price is too high..."

Jiang Feiyan no longer paid attention to the crowd, turned around and looked in the direction where Li Lingge and others left, with a complicated look in her eyes.

I originally thought that I could easily control Li Lingge, but I didn't expect that in the end the person being controlled would be myself.

It's over, everything is over...

…

Sword Sect.

Under the gaze of the elders, Ji Wuming took a deep breath and opened the brocade box.

A refreshing fragrance wafted towards him, calming his restless mind.

He tilted his head back and swallowed the pill, and immediately felt a warm current rising from his dantian and flowing along his meridians to his limbs and bones.

After all, this was the elixir that the Sword Sect had spent 3.6 million immortal stones to buy, so they naturally wanted to see the effects.

Suddenly, Ji Wuming's consciousness became hazy.

The scene before him was distorted and changing, and when he came to his senses, he found himself standing in a bloody wasteland.

The sky was covered with dark clouds, lightning and thunder, and shrill howls came from the distance.

"Is this your inner world? It's so ugly."

A familiar voice sounded behind him. Ji Wuming turned around suddenly and saw another self standing there.

But those eyes were as red as blood, and there was a dark demonic aura surrounding him.

"You're finally here." The inner demon grinned, "You think a small pill can get rid of me? I am your truest desire!"

Ji Wuming felt his heart beating faster and countless noisy sounds rang in his ears.

He saw himself standing on the top of a mountain, with countless corpses of monks at his feet.

Seeing himself holding the divine sword, thousands of people surrendered...

"These are what you want, aren't they?" The inner demon's voice was full of temptation. "Come, accept me, and all these will become reality."

Ji Wuming's eyes began to blur and he unconsciously stepped forward.

At this moment, a stream of clear water gushed out from his dantian, instantly dispelling the illusion before his eyes.

He suddenly woke up and saw the hideous face of his inner demon close at hand.

"No!" Ji Wuming shouted, "These are all lies!"

The inner demon let out a sharp scream and turned into a ball of black mist and rushed over.

Ji Wuming did not retreat but advanced, allowing the black fog to swallow him up.

In the darkness, he saw his deepest fear - Li Lingge holding the magic sword and stabbing it into his body fiercely.

The inner demon's voice whispered in my ear, "Do you want power? Do you want revenge?"

Ji Wuming closed his eyes and faced the memory.

"Hatred has blinded my eyes, but that is not the reason for my fall."

The black fog churned violently, and the inner demon roared unwillingly: "No!"

Clear light burst out from Ji Wuming's body, completely dispelling the black fog.

He opened his eyes and found himself still sitting cross-legged in the quiet room, with a group of elders staring at him nervously.

"How?" Tunan asked with concern.

Ji Wuming slowly stood up and bowed deeply to the elders.

"Thank you, Master and all the elders. I have overcome my inner demons. From now on, I will stay true to my original intention and live up to the teachings of my master."

Tunan nodded with satisfaction. Although he no longer had the Ming Jianxin, he could break through to a higher level of cultivation as long as he took the Emperor Feng Dan.

In this case, Zi Shuhe has no chance of winning.

"Take the Emperor's Pill quickly."

"yes."

Ji Wuming sat cross-legged again and took out the Emperor Feng Dan that he had bought for eight million immortal stones.

The pill was only the size of a thumb, but it seemed to contain infinite power, and the air around it was slightly distorted by its existence.

He took a deep breath, a look of determination flashing in his eyes.

The sect spent more than 10 million immortal stones on him. If he cannot break through to the second level of the Immortal Emperor and defeat Zi Shuhe, he, the holy son, will probably be despised by everyone in the sect, and even his master will not be able to protect him.

Ji Wuming put the pill into his mouth without hesitation. The pill melted in his mouth, turning into a hot torrent that flowed into his body along his throat.

In an instant, Ji Wuming felt as if all the meridians in his body were burned by fire. The severe pain made him groan, and beads of sweat oozed from his forehead.

He immediately practiced his skills, guiding the violent force to flow through his body.

"This power... is truly extraordinary!"

Ji Wuming was secretly shocked, feeling that the spiritual power in his body was growing at an astonishing rate, and the bottleneck of his cultivation that had been stagnant began to loosen.

In his dantian, immortal power surged like a tide, gradually condensing into a more refined energy.

Time passed minute by minute, Ji Wuming's face turned red and pale, and his clothes were already soaked with sweat.

His body was trembling slightly, obviously under great pressure.

"break!"

The next moment, Ji Wuming roared, formed seals with his hands, and the immortal power in his body suddenly burst out, turning into a dazzling light and shooting straight into the sky.

At this moment, a slight cracking sound came from his body, as if some shackles were broken.
