Seeing that Meng Wan was interested, Patriarch Meng quickly added fuel to the fire.

"This mirror is a treasure passed down from our ancestors. Our ancestral teachings say it contains the ultimate truths of heaven and earth, and can predict the future and provide insight into the mysteries of heaven! What a pity..."

He paused deliberately, sighed, and a look of regret appeared on his face.

"It's a pity that I'm so dull that I have the Treasure Mirror in my hand, but I still can't comprehend its mysteries. If not, how could I have ended up in this situation today?"

As Patriarch Meng spoke, he wiped his eyes sadly, looking heartbroken.

"Oh? So the Meng family's ancestors actually had such a magical object?"

Meng Wan pretended to be surprised, but she sneered in her heart.

With the Heart-Eating Bug around, she naturally wouldn't be fooled by the old guy's words.

The heirloom and the mysterious mirror of heaven were just lies he made up to deceive her.

"Absolutely true!"

Patriarch Meng was unaware that his thoughts were being overheard, so he raised his hand and made a solemn promise.

"As long as you are willing to spare my life, I will not only hand over this 'Heavenly Mysterious Mirror' to you, but I will also share with you all the knowledge I have accumulated over the past few hundred years without reservation!

Although you have done many treasonous things, you are still a descendant of the Meng family. It is better to pass this treasure to you than to let it fall into the hands of others."

Meng Wan pretended to ponder for a moment before slowly nodding.

"Well, considering that you and I are from the same family, I will give you a chance.

Take me to see this 'Heavenly Mysterious Mirror'. If there really is such a great treasure inside, I will spare your life."

Upon hearing this, Patriarch Meng was overjoyed and nodded rapidly, "That's great, that's great! The Mysterious Mirror of Heaven's Secrets is hidden in the Meng family's ancestral tomb. I'll take you there right away!"

After saying that, Patriarch Meng set up a light of escape and led the way.

Along the way, Patriarch Meng kept introducing the magical features of the "Tianji Xuanjian" to Meng Wan, as if it were a rare treasure in the world.

Meng Wan listened quietly, asking a question or two from time to time, showing great interest.

Patriarch Meng was flying in a beam of light when he suddenly stopped.

He kept looking around and his face gradually turned pale.

Seeing that he noticed, Meng Wan was too lazy to pretend to be nice anymore.

A cold light flashed in her eyes, and the hand that had been hidden in her sleeve suddenly stretched out, with five fingers spread out, grabbing towards the head of Ancestor Meng.

Along with her movements, large amounts of blood mist surged out like a tide.

The blood mist enveloped Elder Meng in an instant, trapping him like a huge blood-colored cage.

Patriarch Meng's face changed drastically. In a hurry, he could only try his best to avoid the vital points, allowing Meng Wan's attack to fall on his back.

"What are you doing?! Don't you want the Heavenly Mystery Mystery anymore?!"

Meng Wan smiled.

"I've thought about it. After all, it belongs to our ancestors, and it's hidden in the ancestral tomb. As an unworthy descendant like me, it's better not to go in front of our ancestors and cause them trouble, right?"

Patriarch Meng's expression suddenly became gloomy.

While leading the way, he was actually always on guard against Meng Wan, guarding against his sneak attacks.

But her speed was so fast that he had no time to react before he was hit.

Patriarch Meng took a deep breath and tried his best to mobilize the spiritual power in his body, trying to break free from the constraints of the blood mist cage.

However, this seemingly thin blood mist seemed to contain endless power.

Every attack he made was like hitting the indestructible wall of Patriarch Meng, and it was all in vain.

Without waiting for Ancestor Meng to break free from his restraints, Meng Wan activated the Blood Demon Heavenly Evil Technique, absorbing and refining Ancestor Meng's flesh and blood bit by bit.

"You actually dared to refine me?"

Patriarch Meng was extremely shocked and furious, with hatred and fear in his eyes, and he roared hysterically.

"I am your ancestor. If you dare to kill me, I will turn into a fierce ghost after I die and come to take your life!"

"I wasn't afraid of you when you were alive, so why would I be afraid that you'd turn into a ghost after you die?"

Meng Wan laughed as if she had heard a funny joke.

She shook her head slightly and sped up the refining process.

The screams of Ancestor Meng gradually weakened, and his body became shriveled, like a dried corpse with all the water drained out.

He used up his last bit of strength, raised his head, stared at Meng Wan, and cursed at the top of his lungs.

"Meng Wan! You devil! You will not die a good death! You will be punished! You will definitely be punished!"

A sarcastic arc appeared on Meng Wan's lips as she continued to practice her skills, devouring the last bit of blood and essence in Ancestor Meng's body.

"Retribution? Haha... As long as the power is sufficient, why fear retribution?"

She slowly closed her eyes, feeling the power in her body, and frowned somewhat dissatisfiedly.

Ancestor Meng is very old and has little blood and energy left in his body.

After deducting the cost of using Blood Light Escape, there was not much left after killing him.

Originally, according to her estimation, after sacrificing the blood of the Meng family, she would be able to reach the Golden Core stage.

It seems that we have to kill a few more Jindan at the moment.

Meng Wan remembered that there seemed to be a secret agent of the Jinyun Sect nearby.

The people from Jinyun Sect wanted to kill her, so she just killed their secret agents!

As for the Meng family ancestral tomb that Patriarch Meng mentioned...

According to the thoughts stolen by the Heart-Eating Bug, there are indeed some things in the ancestral tomb, but they are not the so-called "Heavenly Secret Mysterious Mirror", but some of the family wealth accumulated by Ancestor Meng.

However, the ancestral tomb is located in Qingsha County. Since she destroyed the Meng family, the security in Qingsha County has become increasingly strict. Now is not a good time to go there.

It’s better to put it aside for now and come back to it when you have time.

Meng Wan did not go directly to the secret agent of Jinyun Sect, but first went to a secret stronghold of Xuanyin Sect which was closest to this place.

This stronghold is very secretive and only a few core disciples know about it.

Somewhere in an ordinary valley, the door of a house creaked open and a slightly hunched figure walked out of the room.

This person is none other than He Xianzhi, the Jindan manager of this secret base.

When he saw who was coming, a look of surprise flashed across his eyes, and then a flattering smile filled his face as he spoke respectfully.

"Sir Saint, why are you here?"

Meng Wan walked into the house casually, glanced at the simple furnishings, and sat down on the main seat.

"There's a Jinyun Sect spy nearby, and I need all the information about them."

He Xianzhi was startled when he heard this.

Could it be that Master Meng is going to take action against the hidden agents of the Jinyun Sect?

He calmed himself down, quickly took out a jade slip from his waist, and handed it to Meng Wan with both hands.

"Sir Saint, this contains detailed information about the Jinyun Sect's secret agents, including the cultivation level and number of the garrisoned cultivators, as well as their daily patrol routes."

Meng Wan took the jade slip and scanned it with his spiritual sense.

The information recorded in the jade slip is indeed very detailed.

"According to our investigations over the past six months, there are three Jindan cultivators in charge of this hidden operation."

He Xianzhi glanced at Meng Wan's expression out of the corner of his eye before he mustered up the courage to continue.
