"What a potent poison!" Even the all-knowing and experienced Tianyi Ancestor, an old monster who had lived for hundreds of years, had never seen such a powerful poison before.
"This was poisoned into Jian'er's body by the Poison King of the Ming Cult," the Tianyi Sect Master confessed honestly.
"The Ming Cult, was the chosen one I found before a member of the Ming Cult?" the patriarch suddenly asked.
The Tianyi Sect Master nodded quickly. It was precisely because Xiao Feng was the person the Ancestor wanted that he sent Xuan Yuanjian and that good-for-nothing Sun Yuanjie to find Xiao Feng's whereabouts.
I never imagined it would harm my own son.
Ancestor Tianyi was unable to leave due to some special reasons, but his high level of cultivation and strength made the Tianyi Sect Master dare not disobey his orders.
Moreover, the Heavenly Ancestor and the Heavenly Sect Master look very similar.
Sometimes, the Heavenly Ancestor would transform into the Heavenly Sect Master and issue orders to the disciples in the sect.
This led Sun Yuanjie to believe that the person who entrusted him with the task was not the legendary Tianyi Ancestor who was in seclusion, but the Tianyi Sect Master.
Few people know that the Heavenly Ancestor is still alive.
Most people believed that the Heavenly Ancestor had long since passed away quietly during his seclusion in the Long River.
After all, there are many powerful beings in the cultivation world who cannot break through the final shackles and whose souls dissipate.
Tianyi Ancestor was originally one of them.
But he later discovered the secret of heaven and found a way to survive, which is why he has his current body.
But his body was already exhausted and dying.
He needed to find a younger body that met his requirements, and the chosen one he had previously set his sights on was quite good.
Not only is he young and talented with exceptional physical attributes, but he also possesses extremely strong luck.
It's a pity that the useless people in the sect are getting worse with each generation; they still haven't brought anyone back for them.
“Jian’er fell into the hands of the Ming Cult because he was doing my bidding. I will find a way to remove the poison from his body, but you should also know that my body is about to give out. Let’s bring that kid back as soon as possible.”
Upon hearing what Ancestor Tianyi said, Sect Master Tianyi agreed without hesitation.
“Ancestor, the reason I went to cause trouble for the Ming Cult this time was to take this opportunity to find out if that kid was still in the Ming Cult. But it seems he left the Ming Cult and I don’t know where he went.”
Upon hearing what the Tianyi Sect Master said, the Tianyi Ancestor closed his eyes and sensed Xiao Feng's location.
"This kid actually ran into the territory of the demon race."
After sensing Xiao Feng's location, the Old Ancestor of Tianyi told the Sect Master of Tianyi with some surprise.
At the same time, Xiao Feng felt a strangely powerful divine sense searching for his location, and he could vaguely sense where he was.
The sheer horror that struck his very soul made Xiao Feng immediately open his eyes.
After returning from the Devouring Python, Xiao Feng has been in seclusion for cultivation.
When he withstood the heavenly lightning before, he also gained some small things from it, and his strength improved slightly.
Furthermore, his subsequent battle with the Devouring Python further solidified his cultivation level.
But Xiao Feng never expected that while he was in seclusion, he would feel a warning from the heavens that he was in danger.
"What just happened? That palpitation felt like some powerful enemy was watching me." Xiao Feng frowned, carefully recalling the feeling he had just experienced.
Xiao Feng's intuition told him that he was in danger, but he had no way of knowing the secrets of the world and where the danger just now came from.
"We must improve our cultivation as soon as possible; we absolutely cannot sit idly by and wait for our demise!"
Xiao Feng quickly sorted out his chaotic thoughts and calmed himself down again.
During this time, Zhao Yuwei has been teaching the little lion demons of the lion demon tribe how to identify herbs and refine pills.
The nine-headed lion seemed to be consolidating its recently achieved breakthrough in cultivation.
He would even go out and fight with the powerful demons in the surrounding area when he had nothing else to do.
They subdued all the powerful demons around them and found many treasures for Xiao Feng that would help him improve his cultivation.
But Xiao Feng's current level of attainment is quite high.
Unless he encounters some extraordinary opportunity, it will be quite difficult for him to break through in a short period of time.
Xiao Feng sighed softly and finally decided to deal with the Devouring Python, which he had still imprisoned in the system space.
Xiao Feng deliberately found a quiet, secluded cave and released the Devouring Python.
Xiao Feng did not release the spiritual power binding the Devouring Python.
As soon as the Devouring Python appeared, it transformed into a demonic troll, unleashing a barrage of profanities and insults at Xiao Feng.
His words were so vicious that Xiao Feng almost slapped him across the face.
How come he never noticed before that the Devouring Python was so good at swearing?
"Do you want to die?" Xiao Feng's imposing aura suddenly pressed down hard on the Devouring Python.
The Devouring Python immediately shut its mouth obediently, no longer daring to provoke Xiao Feng.
Although his eyes still held hatred for Xiao Feng, he was also a wise man who knew when to yield.
"Go ahead and kill me if you dare! You despicable and shameless human, I will absolutely not let you have your way!"
Although the Devouring Python did not know why Xiao Feng spared its life.
But he quickly guessed that Xiao Feng was probably after one of the treasures he possessed.
The Devouring Python thought that all the treasures it had placed in the cave might have been completely devoured by Xiao Feng and the Nine-Headed Lion.
The Devouring Python wished it could swallow Xiao Feng whole and had no intention of speaking to him properly.
"If you hand over Mingyu, I can spare your life," Xiao Feng said calmly.
"What Mingyu? I've never heard of that name before. So you're here to cause trouble for me because of this?" The Devouring Python's brow twitched, and it immediately denied it.
Xiao Feng noticed the fleeting panic on the Devouring Python's face and warned in a cold tone, "While I'm still willing to talk to you properly, don't make me resort to violence. Hand over Mingyu obediently, and I'll spare your life."
Faced with Xiao Feng's threat, the Devouring Python remained defiant and spoke again: "I've already said that I've never heard of this Mingyu, and it's not with me."
"Maybe he's with some other powerful demon, or maybe he's with the dead lion. If you're so capable, why don't you go and cause trouble for the dead lion!"
Xiao Feng lowered his eyes slightly, remained silent for a moment, but finally couldn't suppress the emotions surging in his heart. He got up and gave the Devouring Python, which he had tightly bound, a severe beating.
"Are you sure you won't give it to me?" Seeing the Devouring Python on the ground covered in wounds from his beating, Xiao Feng kicked it in its fatal wound and ground it hard.
Xiao Feng considered himself not to be a virtuous person.
In the dog-eat-dog world of cultivation, if others can take what he has, he can naturally take what others have.
Therefore, he did not intend to show any mercy to the Devouring Python.
The Devouring Python is dying.
