Chapter 166

How powerful is the demon seed?

If they could recruit him to their side, he would be an invincible weapon. At that time, not only the cultivation world, but the entire Hunyuan Continent would be theirs!

That's a pretty nice idea!

However, he's a complete idiot!

Baili Han, this demon seed, just doesn't play by the rules. He went straight to the mortal world and was born, making those idiots work for nothing for thousands of years.

No, it's even worse than trying to steal a chicken and losing the rice instead.

Inside the demon's lair, the demons, tormented beyond human comprehension, were filled with resentment and hatred. Their bodies and souls had completely fused into a terrifying monster that was neither human nor demon...

At that moment, demonic energy suddenly surged from Tianyang Peak, and a terrifying cry, sharp like that of an infant or a ghost, resounded throughout the entire Qingxiao Sect. Countless disciples had their eardrums pierced, and those with low cultivation levels almost instantly bled from all seven orifices and died on the spot.

Peach Blossom Peak was protected by a powerful array, so the strange, menacing cries didn't cause any significant impact.

However, Baili Han quickly covered Wen Xin's ears and practically hugged her whole body in his arms.

Wen Xin: "Little apprentice?"

Baili Han leaned closer to her, his cool, pine-like scent brushing against her ear. "Little Master's Wife, are you alright?"

Wen Xin's cheeks flushed slightly. "No, it's okay."

However, she looked worriedly in the direction of Tianyang Peak.

A gigantic, monstrous phantom appeared before the crowd as demonic energy surged forth.

"vomit!"

Wen Xin covered her mouth; she really didn't mean it.

That monster was absolutely terrifying!

Who has ever seen a creature with nine human heads, a neck longer than an octopus's tentacles, covered with countless eyes, and a huge, bulging belly filled with human facial features? Its mouth is split open, revealing bloody, white teeth that go beyond mere disgust.

Ironically, the sound it makes is just like a baby's!

This is an extreme form of spiritual pollution.

Baili Han pulled the girl into his arms and covered her eyes with his other hand, saying, "Little Master's wife, don't look, don't listen."

She was enveloped in his crisp, pine-scented scent, and her turbulent emotions gradually calmed down.

“My great-grandfather…”

"It's alright, it's no match for the Immortal Venerable."

The boy comforted her in a low voice, a hint of tenderness hidden beneath his cool demeanor.

Wen Xin pursed her lips, "Little disciple, why does the Qingxiao Sect have such terrifying monsters?"

Baili Han said calmly, "It's a product of human greed."

Wen Xin: "..."

Who is it?

She murmured in a low voice.

Baili Han remained silent this time, offering no reply.

That monster appeared on Tianyang Peak. Who would believe that it had absolutely nothing to do with Duan Tianyi?

However, it would be impossible to raise such a monster in less than a thousand years.

A thousand years ago, Duan Tianyi was nowhere to be found.

But Tianyang Peak has always been the territory of the sect leader's lineage. If Duan Tianyi can't raise it, what about the Xuanming Sect Leader? What about the Xuanming Sect Leader's master? What about the Grand Elder of the Qingxiao Sect—Xiao Xu, the Great Ascension Immortal Lord?

Grand Elder!

Wen Xin smiled coldly to herself. In her previous life, Duan Tianyi and Sect Master Xuanming were able to assassinate the Supreme Elder because they used the God-Slaying Nails given to them by Immortal Lord Xiao Xu.

Not long after, Lin Zhenjun and his group were also surrounded and killed by Xiao Xuxianjun and his men.

It can be said that the entire lineage of the Qingxiao Sect's leader is Wen Xin's blood enemy!

However, the secret of Tianyang Peak in the previous life has never been revealed. After all, who would have thought that the lineage of the Qingxiao Sect's leader was full of hypocritical, wicked, and depraved monsters?

However, Wen Xin was now very curious to see how Xuanming Sect Master and the others could try to argue their way out of this situation.

Wen Xin tugged at Baili Han's sleeve, "Little disciple, is the reason your tribulation struck Tianyang Peak because of this demonic creature?"

Could Baili Han say that he had already planted a seed at Tianyang Peak, so that he could drag that monster out to cause trouble whenever needed?

Of course not!

In the young master's heart, he must always be a pure and upright sword cultivator (future Daoist partner).

Those who did bad things, those who were not good people, were definitely Duan Tianyi and his group.

The innocent young man Baili wouldn't deceive his junior mistress, but he could...

"This monster is neither human nor demon, and cannot be tolerated by the Heavenly Dao."

Wen Xin nodded trustingly, "Just as I thought."

As the demonic energy of Tianyang Peak erupted, the monster gradually broke through the seal and revealed its true form.

Its nine heads stretched out menacingly, devouring the creatures of the Qingxiao Sect.

The cries of agony echoed throughout the Qingxiao Sect!

A blazing longsword swept across, its powerful sword energy seemingly capable of cleaving the heavens and earth, directly severing the monster's three heads.

The monster screamed shrilly, its eyes on its neck opening wide, bloody and cruel, its demonic energy surging and almost engulfing the entire Qingxiao Sect.

Only the Supreme Elder's spiritual energy surged, unaffected by it in the slightest.

The sword intent cultivated by the Supreme Elder is as scorching as the sun, making it the nemesis of monsters.

Forced into retreat, it screamed repeatedly and devoured the cultivator's flesh and blood even more ferociously.

Duan Tianyi, as the master of Tianyang Peak, was also fleeing for his life in disarray. If it weren't for the many magical treasures he possessed, he would have been devoured by the monster's demonic energy long ago.

Duan Tianyi ran in terror toward the safe area behind the Supreme Elder.

Now, in the entire Qingxiao Sect, apart from Peach Blossom Peak, only the Supreme Elder's back is safe.

However, while Duan Tianyi shamelessly relied on the Supreme Elder's protection, he was constantly resentful in his heart.

Why didn't the Supreme Elder see him? Why didn't he send him to Peach Blossom Peak for refuge first? Why was he allowed to escape in such a sorry state?

They even said they considered him one of their own. Ha! Master and Bing'er were right. The Supreme Elder has always looked down on him!

Utterly hateful!

However, Duan Tianyi failed to realize that the more distorted his mind became, the more turbid his aura became, and the greater his attraction to monsters.

A head suddenly appeared behind him...

"Master, be careful!"

"You beast! Get out of here!"

Duan Tianyi frantically dropped his magical artifacts in terror, only to have them all chewed up by the monster like snacks.

Seeing that the bloody teeth were about to bite him, Duan Tianyi pushed Luo Bing'er away without hesitation and then ran away without even glancing at his "beloved disciple".

Luo Bing'er stared in disbelief at Duan Tianyi's retreating figure.

Why?

She loved her master so much that she would do anything for him?

But why was she abandoned by him again?

"ah!"

Luo Bing'er was bitten in the monster's mouth and tossed into the air.

Just when she thought she was about to be swallowed up, a burst of sword intent struck, shattering the head.

"Help... Ah!"

Although Luo Bing'er was not devoured by the monster, she fell into the demon's lair. Her eyes were filled with despair and intense hatred!

Duan Tianyi, how heartless you are! How cruel you are!

What are you all standing there for?

The Supreme Elder coldly rebuked Sect Master Xuanming and the others, "Why haven't you sealed it yet?"

...
