I remember Xiaoyu saying that cultivators carry their magical weapons, elixirs, and other things in their storage rings, or at least a storage bag. Just like the palm-sized brocade pouch hanging around Liu Jingyun's waist—it's actually a storage bag. The Chaos Pearl certainly hasn't done anything sneaky before. If he doesn't keep an eye on that gleaming storage ring on Taoist Lingyun's hand, what treasures can he find in the back hall?
Zhou Yuanyuan's guess was correct. The Chaos Pearl, previously in the Sky Realm, possessed abundant energy. Why would it need to devour magical artifacts to gather energy? With the Chaos Pearl reduced to such a state of constant desperation, where it constantly contemplated "killing and stealing treasure," the Chaos Pearl was truly helpless.
It's the same with everything. When you have it, you take it for granted. Once you lose it, you'll feel both resentment and a desire to possess it again. The Chaos Orb was much stronger before, so it's inevitable that it will want to become stronger again.
"Junior brother, I will rely on you from now on. A mere Hundred Flowers Valley will not be difficult for you." Taoist Baopu ignored Taoist Lingyun's excuses. He wanted to reap the benefits without putting in any effort. How could there be such a cheap thing in the world?
"Well... okay! Senior brother, as long as you swear to pass on the secret method to me after you succeed, I will boldly agree to the Baihua Valley matter today." Seeing that Taoist Baopu was determined to stick to Baihua Valley and that he had a handle on him, Taoist Lingyun had no choice but to grit his teeth and agree.
"That's great, Junior Brother, let's swear an inner demon oath together!" Taoist Baopu saw that his goal had been achieved, so he didn't waste any more words with Taoist Lingyun and directly proposed that both of them swear an inner demon oath.
"Okay." Taoist Lingyun gritted his teeth and agreed to Baopu's request. After all, if Baopu succeeded, he would be able to obtain Baopu's secret method. If Baopu failed, the Heart Demon Oath would be useless without someone to take it.
Zhou Yuanyuan saw the two Taoists pointing to the sky and the ground and muttering to each other, which made her very confused.
"Xiaoyu, what is the Heart Demon Oath? Is it very powerful?"
"Master, the Heart Demon Oath is the most serious oath for a cultivator. As the saying goes: You can deceive Heaven but not your heart. A person can deceive Heaven and Earth about what he has done, but he cannot deceive his own heart. The Heart Demon Oath comes from this. Once a cultivator makes the Heart Demon Oath, he must never break it, otherwise the Heart Demon may appear at any time, and he will die." Seeing that there was a live example, Xiaoyu hurried to teach Zhou Yuanyuan.
After Zhou Yuanyuan embarked on the immortal path, her biggest shortcoming was the lack of guidance from her elders. Xiaoyu, a jade spirit, though knowledgeable, was still a first-time teacher. Often, she simply taught Zhou Yuanyuan what she needed, and Xiaoyu didn't even think to teach her about knowledge she didn't need immediately.
However, Zhou Yuanyuan's greatest fortune is to have a "good teacher and helpful friend" like Xiaoyu. At least every time Zhou Yuanyuan has doubts, Xiaoyu can answer them. Compared with those casual cultivators who rely solely on their own exploration to move forward, Zhou Yuanyuan is hundreds of times luckier.
The greatest fear for cultivators seeking immortality is the emergence of inner demons. These demons can appear at any time, and the higher the level, the more powerful they become. Only by overcoming these demons can a cultivator advance to a higher level.
After Xiaoyu and Zhou Yuanyuan finished their explanation, Taoist Lingyun and Taoist Baopu had already taken their oaths and sat down to chat again.
"Senior brother, how are your two new disciples doing? Seeing that the deadline is approaching, you'd better seize the time." Taoist Lingyun asked with concern.
"Junior brother, I've already started the marrow cleansing and meridian clearing process for them. Time is tight, and I wonder if it will affect the results." Taoist Baopu thought of this and felt a little worried. Time was still too tight, and there were many things he hadn't prepared yet.
"Master, Liu Jingyu requests to see you." Mingyue's voice sounded again outside the door.
Taoist Lingyun's brows furrowed. How ignorant of Mingyue! He had just informed her, but she had ignored him. Now she was pestering him outside the door again. How infuriating!
Taoist Lingyun's face was as gloomy as water. If Mingyue was not Taoist Lingyun's favorite blood relative, Taoist Lingyun almost shouted at him.
Liu Jingyu was Taoist Lingyun's second disciple. He was a bit cunning, and Taoist Lingyun had never liked him. The tasks he was asked to perform were usually insignificant. Taoist Lingyun had just promised Taoist Baopu that he would leave Baihua Valley, and was just worrying about how to explain this to the several peak masters in the sect. Then Liu Jingyu bumped into him, and Taoist Lingyun's cry of "Get him out" was on his lips.
"Junior Brother, I remember your second disciple escorted Chen Sanjiang out of the secret realm today. I wonder if anything unexpected happened along the way?" Taoist Baopu and Taoist Lingyun had different ideas. Chen Sanjiang had left the secret realm to smooth things over for him. Taoist Lingyun didn't care about the recent events in the secular world, but Taoist Baopu was constantly concerned. If he weren't tied up right now, Taoist Baopu would have actually visited the secular world himself.
Taoist Baopu spoke, and Taoist Lingyun had to swallow the curse back into his stomach.
"Mingyue, let Liu Jingyu in." Taoist Lingyun called out to the outside of the door.
There was no sound from the bright moon outside the door.
Taoist Lingyun glanced at Taoist Baopu and said nothing.
Taoist Baopu finally came to his senses and lifted the ban with a wave of his hand.
"Mingyue, let Liu Jingyu in." Taoist Lingyun gave another order.
This time, Mingyue outside the door responded, "Yes."
"Junior brother, your child should be alright, right?" Taoist Baopu felt a little uneasy, thinking of Mingyue, who had just been outside the main hall. If anything he and Lingyun had just said were to leak out, it would bring disaster upon the Yushan Sect.
"Don't worry, Senior Brother, this is my descendant. Even without Senior Brother's prohibition, he wouldn't dare to say anything nonsense no matter what he hears." Taoist Lingyun persuaded Taoist Baopu. Taoist Lingyun was really afraid that Baopu would go crazy and cause trouble for Mingyue, so he specifically pointed out Baopu's "prohibition".
The restrictions set by Taoist Baopu were not ordinary ones; they were inherited from an immortal's cave over two hundred years ago. Even Taoist Lingyun didn't have such magical powers.
"That's excellent! Junior Brother, remember to keep him under control, or I'll have to deal with him later." Taoist Baopu was confident in his restraints. After all, they were inherited from an ancient immortal, and no one else in the entire Langyuan Secret Realm possessed his magical power. It was impossible for Mingyue, a Qi training level 2 disciple, to hear anything through his restraints.
But why was he so nervous today? Taoist Baopu frowned and pondered. Somehow, after arriving at Xiaoyao Peak today, he felt a sense of uneasiness.
First set a small goal, such as remembering in 1 second: Shukeju mobile version reading website:
