Kunlun Sutra Library.

Qiu Changtian sat beside the desk, reading the scriptures with a focused expression.

The light coming through the window frame seemed to have coated his handsome profile with a layer of exquisite gold.

Several female disciples of Kunlun hid beside the bookshelf, peeping at Master Qiu with either obsession or fanaticism.

If it were in modern times, some girl would have been unable to control herself and would have gone over to chat with him.

But this was ancient times after all. Even though ascetics were generally not bound by etiquette, it didn't make sense for them to actively flirt with strange men.

Xu Yinglian watched for a moment and suddenly felt a sense of crisis, as if his senior brother was about to be snatched away by someone.

No! It’s not that I’m worried that my senior brother will be snatched away by someone, but that these senior sisters and junior sisters don’t know my senior brother’s true face!

Although my senior brother seems perfect, he is actually arrogant and domineering. If you stay with him without a broad mind, sooner or later you will be driven crazy by his words and actions.

These fellow disciples are only envious of his beautiful appearance, but are unaware of his evil nature. How can I just sit back and watch?

So she walked over quickly, sat down opposite Qiu Changtian, and cast a sharp glance in the direction of the bookshelf.

The female disciples of Kunlun who had been peeping at Qiu Changtian immediately fled like birds and beasts, as if they were mistresses caught by their master.

"Hey, Junior Sister, why are you here?" Qiu Changtian raised his head and asked in surprise at first, then he smiled as if he had suddenly realized something and said, "Is that so?" "Did you encounter any problems during the marrow cleansing and want to ask me?"

Seeing his "you're here to ask me for advice again, right?" smile, Xu Yinglian suddenly felt a surge of anger, and finally suppressed it, and said calmly:

"I heard that Brother has been looking up information about Jiejiao for several days?"

"Yeah." Qiu Changtian nodded calmly.

"What do you need to check? I can help." Xu Yinglian said bluntly.

"It's mainly about the history of the Six Paths of the Demon Cult, as well as its current situation and so on." Qiu Changtian was a little surprised.

Why did Junior Sister Xu suddenly offer to help?

Maybe he is worried about me, his senior brother?

Xu Yinglian listened calmly, then went into the depths of the Sutra Library, took a book from the bookshelf, opened it in front of Qiu Changtian, and explained to him:

"It is not accurate to say that the Six Paths of Demon Sect is a descendant of the ancient Jie Sect."

"The Hell Path, the Heavenly Demon Path, and the Dark Ghost Path, only these three paths have inherited the Jiejiao tradition. Among them, the Hell Path was inherited from the Holy Mother Wu Dang, and the tradition should be the most complete, but it basically does not appear in the world, so there is very little information about it."

"The Heavenly Demon Path was inherited from the Three Immortals Island, and the Dark Ghost Path was inherited from the Skull Mountain. Their traditions are both missing and alienated. Overall, they show an attitude of seeking quick success and instant benefits, looking down on the foundation of cultivation, and focusing on fighting and killing moves."

"The Way of Life is inherited from the outer disciples of Jiejiao in the past. It has many schools and a complicated system. It also accepts many independent practitioners without any restrictions. Therefore, it is very bloated and has a mixed bag of good and bad people."

"The Eastern Emperor Sect was once a peripheral force of the Beast Taming Sect. Later, it completely destroyed the Beast Taming Sect and plundered its Taoist techniques. It claimed to be the successor of the Jiejiao Sect, but it is much weaker than the Beast Taming Sect in its heyday. Some people also suspect that the Eastern Emperor Sect is actually an outpost force planted by the demon world in the human world, but there is no evidence for the time being."

"The Shura sect is a religion that came from the West. It arrived in the Central Plains at the same time as Buddhism in the early years. It basically does not participate in the affairs of the Central Plains, but it is brave and aggressive, and is used to being the vanguard of the demon sect."

Qiu Changtian listened patiently and said with a smile:

"In that case, the ones we really need to worry about are only the Heavenly Demon Sect and the Dark Ghost Sect, right?"

"That's right." Xu Yinglian thought, "As expected of you, Senior Brother." He nodded and said, "The Hell Path doesn't care about worldly affairs, the Shura Path only knows how to kill, the Donghuang Path is just bluffing, and the Mortal Path is a mess."

"These four sects do not have the will or ability to integrate the Demon Cult. Based on past experience, the collective actions of the Demon Cult are mostly led by the Heavenly Demon Sect or the Yin Ghost Sect."

"I see." Qiu Changtian said thoughtfully, "At present, it seems that the Yin Gui Dao is more likely to be suspected."

"Yeah." Xu Yinglian echoed, "Do you remember the Longshan vein last time?"

"If my guess is correct, the Yin Gui Dao must have found that Senior Brother has great potential, so they planned to eliminate Senior Brother in advance."

Qiu Changtian nodded, agreeing with his junior sister's guess.

Suddenly, another thought came to my mind.

Compared to the Yin Gui Dao, Tu Shanjun is more of a suspect, right?

After all, the last time they went to the Demon Locking Tower, Qiu Changtian single-handedly killed the Donghuang Dao's traitor in the Shushan Sect, and he also tipped off the Shushan top management in advance.

That's why Tushan Jun used the name of Donghuang Dao to set a high bounty for himself to vent his anger... It's not impossible.

If we don't figure out who is behind this, it will be like a thorn in our throat. It seems that this fourth trumpet is bound to come to Mount Wutai.

"Junior sister." Qiu Changtian said gently, "Why don't you tell me more information about the hell and the mortal world."

"Since the Hell Realm does not exist in the human world, how can we be sure that the Hell Realm's tradition is still being passed down by people?"

"Why is the Fansheng Dao so scattered? Is there no leader?"

Xu Yinglian thought for a moment and said:

"Although the Hell Realm does not show up, it has special ways to communicate with the Heavenly Demon Realm, the Ghost Realm, and the Mortal Realm."

"The Fansheng Dao is more of a loose alliance of a bunch of sects than a sect. The nominal leader is the Hunyuan Sect of Mount Wutai, but in reality there are so many factions within it that it's hard to reach a consensus."

"Hunyuan Sect? What a big tone." Qiu Changtian couldn't help laughing.

The so-called "Hunyuan" is the beginning of primordial energy before chaos. It is above "acquired" and "innate", and its rank can be said to be as high as it can be.

Although the names of the Three Pure Ones are often long and boring, the words used are still relatively cautious. For example, words like "Hunyuan" and "Taixu" are generally not used indiscriminately.

Other sects don’t care so much about you. Even for entry-level skills, they are eager to come up with a super high-sounding name.

“Although it’s called the Hunyuan Sect, its disciples are all mediocre. So in order to maintain the overall strength of the Mortal Path, it has to accept a large number of independent cultivators to join.” Xu Yinglian laughed and said, “The price is the loss of leadership.”

"If it weren't for the Heavenly Demon Sect and the Dark Ghost Sect, and they only recognized the Hunyuan Sect as the sect of the Mortal Life Sect, maybe it would be like the Beast Taming Sect in the past, and be taken over by the foreign sects."

"Is that so?" Qiu Changtian's mind turned slightly.

In this case, this mortal world is a suitable place to hide.

When being a spy, the most fearful thing is that the other sect has a strong leader, and then conducts internal audits and strict investigations every now and then...

A sect like Sifan Shengdao, which has no leader and no one cares about it, is the favorite of spies and traitors!
