Chapter 354: The devil makes full use of his power, who is he looking for?

Leader Mingde was very anxious. On the next day, each faction received its own task and headed towards Donghai County of Liangzhou.

As a top disciple of the Tianhe Sect and holding the Qingping Sword, Xie Qingxue had the heaviest burden - she had to go straight to Haipu County with Master Mingde, which was the most likely hiding place of the Netherworld Immortal.

"You go to the Nine Mountains Realm."

Yan Wushuang blinked, somewhat doubting whether he had heard wrongly.

"Nine Mountain Realm?"

"Yes, during this campaign against the Netherworld Immortals, you should stay in the Nine Mountains Realm and don't come out."

Xie Qingxue frowned, her expression somewhat worried.

"Senior Sister, you... don't think highly of Master Mingde?"

Yan Wushuang whispered.

He was very panicked: people from four of the five Xuanwei sects had come, and although Wuzhi of Leiyin Temple was missing, there was one more abbot of Mingde.

The strength is only stronger than last time.

And so many gods have died in the Great Freedom Demon Sect. According to intelligence, now only the Nether Immortal is left to hold on.

As one side gains strength while the other loses strength, everyone is most afraid that the other side will become desperate and drag everyone down with it.

No one thought about failure.

But the eldest sister asked him to go to Jiushan Sect, as if she was asking him to seek refuge...

"Winning is one thing, but killing the Netherworld Immortal is another." Xie Qingxue glanced in the direction of the hall and whispered, "This is not the first time that the Supreme Dao has surrounded and suppressed the Netherworld Immortal."

"Not the first time?"

"How could it be so easy for the Netherworld Immortal to betray the sect? According to the sect's records, this person has been hunted down by the Supreme Dao at least three times, and he escaped every time."

"What's more, Donghai County is not simple either."

Hearing this, Yan Wushuang looked a little confused.

"Why do you think the Netherworld Immortal fled to Donghai County? Donghai County, Linhai..."

Yan Wushuang slapped his forehead and suddenly shouted, "Demon Clan!"

"Yes, in the East and West continents, the demon race has declined. Only in the sea area, the human race is not powerful enough and lives on islands, allowing the demon race to gain the upper hand." Xie Qingxue said in a low voice, "Although the demon race is a scattered group, there are many old demons in the sea. My Tianhe Sect dare not underestimate them."

Yan Wushuang frowned: "The emergence of the Great Freedom Demon Cult this time is related to the demon race!"

Seeing that he understood, Xie Qingxue added, "Last time, only Great Sage Qingyun took action, and the other gods of the demon race disappeared without a trace. The sea area near Donghai County has the power of Great Sage Zhenhai."

"Senior Sister, do you think that the Nether Immortal fled to Donghai County for some other purpose?"

Xie Qingxue shook her head and said, "I don't know, but you must be prepared. It would be safest for you to go to the Nine Mountains Realm."

Yan Wushuang didn't expect that her senior sister had such long-term plans for him, and he looked a little touched.

He was a little worried that Master Mingde might be careless, so he hurriedly asked, "Then Master Mingde..."

"Master Mingde was not unprepared for this matter. The reason he wanted so many people together this time was to intimidate or even resist the demon clan." Compared to others, Xie Qingxue seemed to have consulted with Master Mingde.

Yan Wushuang felt relieved after hearing this.

"In fact, even if there is no demon clan, I would like you to hide away and stay away from the Netherworld Immortal." Xie Qingxue said again.

Yan Wushuang was a little confused again after hearing this.

"The ways that Netherworld Immortals escape are actually limited to the following: escaping, faking death and resurrection, changing one's appearance, and possessing another."

"Over the years, my sect has had many secret agents from the Demon Sect. Although they are annoying, we also know some of their methods. The Demon Sect is best at changing their appearance or possessing a person."

"We are not afraid of the gods, but you..."

Yan Wushuang understood that this was because his senior sister despised his weakness and was afraid that the Netherworld Fairy would turn into him or directly lean over him. He could not help but complain, "Senior sister, you watched me grow up. If the Netherworld Fairy turned into me, wouldn't you be able to tell?"

"...The last time you came back, I felt that you were possessed by someone from the Jiushan Sect."

“…”

"Don't mention it's me. The headmaster is your father, and he also doubts it."

Yan Wushuang raised his eyes and saw his senior sister staring at his forehead, looking thoughtful. He was so scared that he covered his head and said, "Oh my god! I will definitely not come out!"

When he asked around, he found out that the Jiushan Sect had already left Tongming Mountain and headed towards Donghai County.

He thought about it and understood that Zheng Fa had to move forward with the Sun and Moon Bell, and his speed would be slower than that of an ordinary Nascent Soul. He would probably set off as soon as he received the mission, unlike his senior sister, who would go with Master Mingde.

Fortunately, Master Mingde did not seem to attach much importance to the Jiushan Sect. The task assigned to them was very far away from Pu County, almost at the other end of Donghai County, so it should not be too dangerous.

Yan Wushuang first sent a communication talisman to Zheng Fa, then patted the scabbard on his back. The long sword behind him turned into a light of escape, wrapped him up and rushed into the sky, chasing in the direction of Jiushan Sect.

Because he was afraid that there were still remnants of the Demon Cult, he deliberately slowed down his escape speed, and the scenery of Liangzhou was all within his sight.

Liangzhou is mountainous and close to the sea, and has always been a prosperous port with a rich population. When he traveled there in his early years, he had some impression of the prosperity of this state.

The reason why Master Chengkong divided this state to Jiushan Sect was also because this place was wealthy and had a large population.

But when I passed by again this time, the scene I saw was different.

Liangzhou was naturally not as miserable as Chen County: in Chen County, because the Great Freedom Demon Cult wanted to refine the Five-sided Blood Evil Flag, after the demonic catastrophe, only one in a hundred people was left alive.

In comparison, fewer people died in Liangzhou.

Yan Wushuang passed by a county town, which was quite crowded.

But there were even more corpses. On the mass grave in the south of the city, men, women, old and young were piled up like garbage into a small hill.

Some of the survivors used their hands and feet, crawled on their knees, and searched for the bodies of their loved ones.

In the city, every family was in mourning and crying.

The crying sound floated up and into the ears of Yan Wushuang who was in the air.

After listening for a while, he understood that since the Great Freedom Demon Sect had arrived, their lives would naturally be difficult.

Not to mention the high taxes paid.

All the pretty women in the city were abducted by the disciples of the Great Freedom Demon Sect.

One can only sell his children and pawn his daughters to afford a stutter.

But the defeat of the Great Freedom Demon Sect was an even greater disaster for them.

Those disciples of the demon sect who could escape did so, but those who thought they could not escape became even more violent and crazy.

Those who have some cultivation level simply use these mortals to practice magic in the hope of gaining some means of preserving their lives.

Those who have no cultivation are just as likely to kill people, and the most souls die at their hands.

Yan Wushuang felt heavy in his heart, but there was nothing he could do. He could only think to himself - it would probably be better now that the Great Freedom Demon Sect is gone.

But he did not see any trace of the immortal sect disciples. Instead, he met several people from the demon sect hiding in the city. He simply swung his sword and killed them all.

He didn't care about the people in the city and just flew out of the city on his sword. The fields outside the city were deserted and no one was working in them.

Fly over a few green hills.

The green mountains are full of spiritual energy, there must be a spiritual vein.

In the mountains, the sound of fighting was heard again.

Someone shouted, "You remnants of the demon cult, you still dare to resist, die!"

Yan Wushuang hated the Demon Cult in his heart. After hearing this, he pressed the escape light and flew towards the battle.

There were two groups of people fighting in the mountains, one defending and the other attacking.

There were five golden elixirs among the attacking monks.

Although the defending side also has a golden elixir, there is only one person who is injured. At this moment, he can only rely on the sect's formation for support.

The golden elixir was about to lose its strength, and could only roar in the formation: "Our sect is also ranked among the immortal sects! We have resisted the Great Freedom Demon Sect for a long time here, and many were killed and injured. Now we have become the remnants of the demon sect!"

Yan Wushuang was puzzled and watched from the side.

A Jindan cultivator outside the formation said coldly: "If he can survive under the rule of the Demon Cult, he must be a remnant of the Demon Cult!"

"Four of my disciples have died, and my fellow disciples have all been killed or injured!" The Jindan in the formation was even more sad, and shouted, "How can I allow you to slander me!"

The other disciples in the formation also had red eyes and looked extremely angry.

Judging from these people, they were not practicing the devil's techniques. Instead, some of them had injuries caused by the devil's techniques.

Yan Wushuang had some guesses in his mind, so he simply showed up, revealed his identity, and drove away the people who were attacking the formation.

"Master Yan..."

The Jindan was naturally grateful to him for saving his life. Yan Wushuang asked again, "How many people like you are there?"

The golden elixir was startled, then shook his head and said, "I can't really say. Some sects may have succumbed to the Demon Cult."

"But there are still many sects, like us, who have nowhere to go without the spiritual veins of the sect and can only hold on with all their might. We finally managed to survive until the Demon Sect was defeated, but... those people said that the Supreme Dao gave this land to them, and gave us the name of the remnants of the Demon Sect..."

Yan Wushuang asked a few more questions and continued on his way to Jiushan Sect.

But I was still thinking about what had just happened.

Zheng Fa did not want Liangzhou, so Master Chengkong naturally adjusted the distribution plan. Liangzhou was distributed to many small and medium-sized sects - this was also to use their hands to clean up the remnants of the Demon Sect.

But now it seems that these sects probably don’t care much about the demon disciples in the county, but are preparing to wipe out the local forces and plunder resources first.

It was said that the sect just now might have been targeted because of a spiritual vein.

He suddenly began to doubt his previous thoughts - would it really be good if the Demon Sect left? After walking for two days, Yan Wushuang finally caught up with the Sun and Moon Bell.

“Brother Yan!”

When Zheng Fa saw him, he seemed to have no time to greet him, but instead took him towards the medicine garden.

In order to avoid trouble, the Qingjing Bamboo in the medicine garden has now been hidden, but there are many more disciples.

There was a map in front of these disciples, and on the map was drawn the mountains and rivers of the mortal world of the Nine Mountains Realm, as well as the direction of the rivers.

Master Qian is waiting in front of the map.

"Master!"

Seeing the two of them coming, the group of people immediately shouted, as if they were waiting for Zheng Fa.

Yan Wushuang knew the Nine Mountains Realm very well, and he was surprised when he counted them now. There were thousands of disciples here, which could be said to account for more than 70% of the Nine Mountains disciples! Obviously, something big was going to happen in the Nine Mountains Realm! Seeing the serious atmosphere, he didn't say anything and just watched from the side.

Zheng Fa walked to the front of the map and waved his hand. The map floated into the air, getting bigger and bigger, covering half of the sky.

Some words and patterns appeared on the map. Yan Wushuang took a look and found that they were the names of crops. They were so densely packed that even different types of crops were written in every corner of the map.

"Now is the spring planting season. Master Qian has already investigated the water quality and soil in various places in the mortal world and made this agricultural planning map."

"You have all learned some agricultural knowledge. Now I am sending you down to the mortal world to guide the people on earth to cultivate the land and carry out spring ploughing."

Yan Wushuang's eyes widened. He had never expected that Zheng Fa had gathered most of the disciples in the sect and made it so solemn, just to help mortals with spring ploughing? "This is a major event for our Nine Mountains Realm. If you complete it well, you will naturally be rewarded with good deeds!"

Zheng Fa was extremely serious, and did not think this was a trivial matter at all.

"On the other hand, after you come back, I also hope that you can make a summary, including how to get along with mortals, how to motivate them, and how to dispatch manpower..."

"You have written a good summary. I will give you another good deed."

All the disciples responded loudly, accepted the mission, and went to the mortal world.

Only Yan Wushuang was still standing there in a daze.

It seemed that Zheng Fa had no time to pay attention to him and just looked at Master Qian.

Master Qian reported, "According to your instructions, Master, I have already sent disciples to places where spiritual plants can be grown."

"For the rest of the crops, since the Nine Mountains have abundant rainfall and wetlands, I chose the newly cultivated rice in most places."

"Oh, yes, there is Ling Sang."

Zheng Fa nodded. No matter what, it was right to grow the staple food first. The conditions in the Jiushan Realm were indeed more suitable for rice.

He looked at the map again and saw that it was densely marked, showing that Master Qian had put a lot of effort into it. He praised him and said, "Now that the spring ploughing is over, I will give you a lot of good deeds."

"Little villain..." Master Qian looked a little embarrassed.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Zheng Fa patted his shoulder and said with a smile: "Exchange for more spiritual materials, practice well, and enter the golden elixir. I will wait for you to dedicate another 800 years to the Nine Mountains Realm!"

When Master Qian heard this, he not only did not feel bitter, but he grinned.

Yan Wushuang looked at the two of them, then at the map in the sky. The thought of those golden elixirs who were determined to steal other people's spiritual veins flashed through his mind again. When he looked at Master Qian again, he was actually looking forward to this person achieving golden elixir, just like Zheng Fa.

He looked at the map, a smile slowly forming on the corners of his mouth. The depression that had accumulated along the way seemed to be slowly dissipating.

Zheng Fa let the delighted Master Qian go, then turned to Yan Wushuang and said, "I'm sorry, these days are the time for spring ploughing, so there's a lot to do."

"It's okay!" Yan Wushuang waved his hand and said, "I quite like watching it."

"Like to watch?"

Zheng Fa glanced at him with a puzzled look in his eyes, but he seemed really busy. Seeing that Yan Wushuang was not unhappy, he hurried towards the University Island.

The two walked into a yard.

Yan Wushuang was startled when he entered the room.

The remnants of the demon sect!

True Demon Sect remnants! The Blood River Patriarch was floating in the yard, surrounded by several Demon Sect Golden Cores, and Lin Bufan was standing in the crowd.

No one spoke.

Except for Lin Bufan, all the disciples of the Great Freedom Demon Sect had expressions of despair on their faces.

They stared in silence at the room, where there were wooden shelves covered with layers of mulberry leaves.

Among the mulberry leaves, there are clever silkworms shaking their heads and eating comfortably.

"How is it?"

Zheng Fa asked as soon as he came in.

The Blood River Patriarch turned his head away, seemingly not wanting to pay any attention to Zheng Fa.

Lin Bufan reported: "We have found a spell to arouse the sexual desire of silkworms."

The face of the Blood River Patriarch turned even darker.

Yan Wushuang touched his ears, with an expression that showed he suspected he had heard it wrongly.

Aphrodisiac for silkworms?

The magic method of enchantment of the Great Freedom Demon Sect has always been very effective. Many people in the immortal sect have been fooled by it, and many people are terrified when they hear about it.

Yan Wushuang also felt that this method was vicious and difficult to defend against, and he despised it the most in his heart.

But when I thought of the Blood River Ancestor, the incarnation of the god, staring at a group of soft silkworms and performing the charm...

Yan Wushuang curled the corners of his mouth, and suddenly felt that this magic was particularly simple and approachable.

Of course, looking at the expression of the Blood River Patriarch, it was obvious that he did not like himself being too plain.

Zheng Fa laughed and said, "Why, do you feel embarrassed and don't want to do it?"

"……willing!"

Those who can enter Jiushan Sect alive are not tough. "Very good, you can try to cultivate silkworms first. If Jiushan Sect wants to develop animal husbandry in the future, you can help a lot!" Zheng Fa said with a smile, "If you have achievements, I will naturally let you go free."

He pointed at Lin Bufan and said, "Of course, if you continue to be stubborn, I won't need so many demon sect disciples."

Upon hearing this, the Demon Sect’s Golden Cores nodded one after another.

Zheng Fa took another careful look around the silkworm house and confirmed that the silkworm breeding was going smoothly. Only then did he leave with Yan Wushuang in satisfaction.

Seeing that he seemed to be fine, Yan Wushuang couldn't help but ask: "Are you going to let these demon sect disciples train spirit beasts?"

"Not only spiritual beasts." Zheng Fa sighed, "My Nine Mountain Realm is now penniless, and we have to feed the people of the entire realm. Ordinary pigs, ducks, cattle and sheep must also be raised."

"It's the silkworms. I'm also going to find a few high-yield ones and distribute them to the mortal world."

Yan Wushuang treated him sincerely, so Zheng Fa naturally had nothing to hide, and explained: "In the future, those mortals who grow rice and raise silkworms will at least not worry about food and clothing."

"So you want to use the demon disciples?"

"Oh, we don't have any talent in this area after all." Zheng Fa shook his head. He thought for a moment and said, "The magic sect's magic is indeed good in this regard."

After all, among the ancestors of the Great Freedom Demon Sect, there were ruthless people who attacked plants.

Yan Wushuang stopped talking. He was silent for a long time, and suddenly started talking about the conflict he had encountered.

Zheng Fa listened and didn't find it strange -

After such a hard-fought battle, many sects naturally wanted to grab more resources. As for whether the other party was the remnants of the Demonic Sect, it didn’t matter.

He looked at Yan Wushuang, not knowing why this man said this, and he looked sad.

"All along the way, no immortal sect thought about the spring ploughing... Most of the fields in Liangzhou are still barren." Yan Wushuang suddenly laughed, he looked at Zheng Fa and said, "What's worse, the people from the immortal sects also want to fight like the people from the demon sects, shouting and killing, just for the spirit veins."

He turned around and looked at the small courtyard. After all, he was still young and was too embarrassed to say a compliment directly in front of his friends:

"And you, you made the people of the Demon Sect more like the Immortal Sect than the people of the Immortal Sect."

Seeing that he stopped talking, Zheng Fa didn't care and just took him to the main hall of Tiangong Island.

Senior Sister Zhang was busy calculating the allocation of manpower and rice seeds, as well as the division of land.

Seeing Zheng Fa bringing Yan Wushuang here, she looked puzzled, and Uncle Pang and others who were helping in the hall also looked over.

"Thank you, Fairy, for some guesses."

Zheng Fa nodded to Yan Wushuang, and Yan Wushuang told everyone what his senior sister had said about the demon race and the Netherworld Immortal.

Senior Sister Zhang frowned: "Demon tribe?"

"Yes, after the Great Sage Qingyun took action, no more demons appeared. I thought they might have occupied the Great Freedom Heaven and lived in seclusion." Zheng Fa said, "Now that I see the Netherworld Immortals coming to the East China Sea, I'm afraid it's not just that."

Senior Sister Zhang nodded when she heard this, and then said, "So what we have to guard against now in Donghai County is the big monster in the sea?"

"yes."

Zheng Fa thought about it and said with a smile, "There is no need to worry. According to what the head monk Mingde said, the Netherworld Immortal should be in Haipu County, which is very far away from us."

“Even if something happens, my Jiushan Sect can still protect our lives within the Jiushan Realm.”

His mentality this time when encircling and suppressing the Netherworld Immortal is indeed different from before.

On the one hand, the situation now is not as urgent as last time. Last time, Zheng Fa had to fight desperately in order to prevent the resurrection of the Great Freedom Demon Ancestor.

In addition, with Qingjingzhu, they felt more confident and were no longer so panicked.

The most important thing is that Master Mingde does not trust them as much as Master Chengkong does.

When the six armies attacked the Chenjun Demon Sect, they were also the main force, with many Nascent Souls under their command.

Now the main battlefield is in Haipu County, and they are on the other side of Donghai County, so it is hard to say whether there is anyone who can command them.

I think that the leader Mingde probably trusts himself more, and at most relies on the people from the five sects, including the two incarnations from the Supreme Dao.

As for myself, I am afraid that he will not even take me seriously.

In this case, the Jiushan Sect is at ease and is more focused on developing itself.

The reason I came to Donghai County was that I didn't want to offend the Five Xuanwei Sects, but my mentality was just to not do anything. At most, I would be a spectator and I just had to be ready to applaud enthusiastically.

There's no need to do anything that will only get you a cold shoulder.

…

"Do you care so much about Zheng Fa?"

Master Mingde looked at Master Chengkong and said.

"First Master, Zheng Fa did a great job last time, and his methods were extraordinary. Why not give him an important task?"

"I know that he has some tricks to take advantage of others, but now it's a life-and-death fight, how can he take advantage of any loopholes?" The head of Mingde snorted, and seeing that he seemed a little unwilling, he explained, "Zheng Fa's cultivation is too low. If he is not careful and is possessed by my evil disciple, wouldn't that be even more troublesome?"

Master Chengkong was stunned. He didn't expect that the abbot would have such considerations.

"I have been hunting him down for so many years, and there were times when I had to take action against my own family members..." A look of sadness appeared on the face of Master Mingde, and he clenched the Qingjing Bamboo in his hand tightly, as if he was filled with anger.

"This time, I don't want to allow Qin Mu to enter Haipu County unless they are in the state of transformation."

"Although Zheng Fa has fighting power, his cultivation is low after all. If we don't let him come, we won't cause any trouble."

When Master Chengkong saw that he thought this way, he also felt that it made sense and naturally had nothing to say.

But he also understood that it was because Master Mingde did not take Zheng Fa seriously, otherwise he would not have kept them so far away.

“Why, with so many of us in the state of transformation, we can’t kill that evil disciple without Zheng Fa’s golden elixir?” The head of Mingde asked again, cursing, “Don’t lose my ambition as the Supreme Daoist!”

“…”

Master Mingde really had a way to track down the Netherworld Immortal. Two days later, a group of them, who had reached the state of transformation, found the trace of the Netherworld Immortal on an island.

There is a small cave on this island, and spiritual energy is overflowing from the cave.

When they were still over a hundred miles away from the island, a man flew out of the cave as if sensing their approach. It was the Netherworld Immortal Qin Mu.

The spiritual energy in Qin Mu's body fluctuated, and it seemed that his injuries had not yet healed.

When he saw them, the man's face changed, but his eyes did not fall on them. Instead, he looked behind them, as if looking for something.

This appearance startled the aggressive Master Mingde, who turned around to look at the empty void.

Looking back, I saw that this evil disciple seemed to be relieved.

He was suspicious and secretly sent a message to Master Chengkong: "What is this evil disciple looking for? How come he feels relieved when he didn't find it?"

Master Chengkong looked up at the sky, pursed his lips tightly, with a strange expression, not knowing whether he should tell the answer in his heart - probably, he was looking for the golden elixir that you looked down upon.
