Chapter 262 Refusing to Help Nascent Soul Establishment
To be honest, when Kim Myo-seon gave him the Earth Demon Mask, she didn't say much about the assassin organization "Maro Clan".
Just to allay his concerns, I explained to him the reasons why it wouldn't cause any trouble.
This intelligence is neither a lot nor a little.
Considering that the other party has already been to Tianbaoge, the possibility of any omissions is extremely low, after all, Tianbaoge is in no way inferior to Jinmanlou.
The other party still came to the Heavenly Demon Bone Forest to find him. He had stayed in the Heavenly Soul Sect ruins for quite a while. Could it be that it wasn't for information?
A sudden inspiration struck Wang Yu, and he stared at the other person.
What do you want me to help you with?
"Fellow Daoist guessed it, that's good."
This charming and lovely young girl quietly revealed her plans and the reason why she was in Chiyuan.
"I've come to find an old friend."
"More than a hundred years ago, when I was still young, I had a senior sister in the sect with whom I had a very good relationship, but due to some changes, she was expelled from the sect."
Wang Yu had already guessed these things, and seeing that the other party had no intention of going into details, he immediately lost interest.
"The Mara Clan was founded by my senior sister."
"She was determined to rescue the suffering mortals and cultivators at the bottom of the Red Iris Sect and bring them to the Taihu Spiritual Realm, and thus the Demon Luo Clan was established."
Wang Yu's expression was strange. This was clearly a "fact" that the other party had guessed based on information from Tianbao Pavilion, and it had a strong idealistic flavor.
If that's the case, all he can say is that the organization was wiped out cleanly. Why bother with the population? The Red Kite has changed considerably in the last thousand years.
The population has grown from one or two hundred million to over a billion, demonstrating the effectiveness of learning.
The story of the noble ladies of Taihu Lake continues:
"Senior Sister gathered a group of like-minded people and, under the guise of an assassin organization, operated within the territory of the Hehuan Demon Sect. They killed the leading demon cultivators and then transported the people back to Taihu Lake."
The righteous and demonic realms are separated by the North and South Boundary Mountains. The closest ones are the Reverse Spirit Blood Sect and the Joyful Union Demon Sect, while the Refining Heaven Demon Sect is also very close.
However, the other party clearly didn't have the guts to make the move.
"The plan went smoothly at first, until they killed the offspring of the Yin-Yang Demon Lord, and everything began to fall apart. This shows that the lower ranks of Chi Yuan still have a strong yearning for Taihu Lake."
Hearing this, Wang Yu vaguely guessed what the other party was thinking.
I felt a little incredulous.
The girl spoke with righteous indignation.
"Now that Sister Mu has passed away, I will carry on her legacy, rebuild the Mara Clan, and continue this cause."
“Fellow Daoist, you have a bottom line and have not yet been corrupted by this demonic realm filled with killing and betrayal. I would like to invite you to become a new member of the Demon Clan.”
Just as I expected!
However, young lady, aren't you being a bit too forward with someone you barely know?
Besides, how could he possibly contribute to such a cause? In Chi Yuan's case, among mortals, there might be more good than evil, and among cultivators, including those at the bottom.
Some of them were sincere, but nine out of ten were evil. Even Qingyang Zhenren, whom Wang Yu trusted, betrayed the Water Ink Sect Master who appreciated him.
Here, there is no one you can completely entrust your back to.
Self-interest is the enduring theme of Chi Yuan.
He only met the noblewoman from Taihu Lake once and made a huge profit from that deal, and yet they've already decided that he, Wang, is a good person?
That's really strange.
"I'm sorry, I have no intention of participating in your ideals. Since you have killed this old demon, he is your spoils of war. Farewell."
"etc--"
Wang Yu's expression hardened. Out of respect for the Heavenly Thunder Talisman, he had always been quite friendly towards this person, but he was not without temper.
If we continue to argue...
“Fellow Daoist Zhuo, I understand that you cannot give me your trust for the time being. This is a new Demon Luo Token that I have prepared. I plan to continue my operations within the territory of the Hehuan Demon Sect.”
"If you ever find yourself in a desperate situation in the future, you can come to me."
Having said that, he didn't even want the corpse of the Five Poisons Demon anymore. He threw out a jade token and disappeared into the dense forest.
Wang Yu hesitated for only a moment before putting it into his Sea Heart Ring. Having more friends meant having more options.
Although I don't have a high opinion of the other person's career, this relationship can indeed be used.
This was originally his opinion of Taki Yiran.
By a twist of fate, this strange relationship was established with the direct descendants of Lei Huo Guan.
"Could it be that I really have some kind of 'good aura'?"
After questioning myself.
He took away the Five Poisons Demon's storage ring. Judging from its style and marks, it was clearly not a creation of this era. Its internal space was no less than that of a top-tier Sea Heart Ring.
After throwing the corpse into the coffin, Wang Yu inspected the contents.
"I see."
This old demon indeed possesses an extraordinary lineage and is also an ancient overlord force, not from the same era as the Heavenly Soul Sect, but from an even earlier era, namely the [Ten Thousand Insects Sect]!
This sect is based on the arts of poison and witchcraft.
The inheritance that the Five Poisons Demon received was the fourth-tier poison technique, the "Five Poisons Scripture," which contains thousands of poison formulas, methods for cultivating poisonous insects, and thirty-six accompanying spells, covering all aspects.
There is also a third-level Gu Dao technique called "Gu Dun Hua Dan Jue", which records many techniques for cultivating Gu worms, as well as some incantations using Gu as a medium.
The Five Poisons Demon did not practice this technique; he only learned the secret methods and ordinary spells mentioned above and raised some Gu worms.
No wonder the intelligence from Tingfeng Tower said that this demon is skilled in the three arts of poison, Gu, and curse.
Unfortunately, he didn't get to see it.
The ancient traditions are far more powerful than those of today; this is a consensus among cultivators in this world, which is also due to the numerous instances of generational breakage throughout history.
Aside from the cultivation techniques that all rogue cultivators can obtain.
The harvest from spirit stones was also considerable, with 120,000 mid-grade spirit stones and more than 300 high-grade spirit stones. This fortune was no less than Gui Ling's annual income.
Superior-grade magic weapon: Five Poisons Silver Bell; Mid-grade magic weapon: Snake Staff.
The corpses of five mortal venomous beasts that died tragically, along with a small bag of golden pill powder, various Gu worms, venomous beasts... and other miscellaneous items.
Most of these were incompatible with Wang Yu and ended up being sold off. However, the magic treasures could be kept, as they served as capital for high-level transactions and could also be used occasionally.
After taking inventory, he took out the corpse of the Five Poisons Demon.
After removing the golden core using the technique of "plucking the elixir," and confirming that no hidden dangers remained, the body was then put away.
Create another zombie? Wang Yu thought that wouldn't work.
He has more and more zombies at his disposal, and he can't possibly use them all. There's also a demonic corpse waiting to be born!
Instead of wasting time on this, you might as well go into seclusion for a while.
Although the corpses of the Five Poisons are of a high rank, their foundation is weak.
Judging from his appearance, it was clear that his poison cultivation had gone wrong. This is actually a common problem faced by independent cultivators, as their foundation is not solid enough.
Even if one is extremely lucky and obtains the inheritance of the Nascent Soul stage, various unexpected events can still occur due to one's own limitations in foundation and knowledge. Sometimes, even disciples of powerful forces cannot avoid these situations.
Take Liu Jinxian for example, who cultivated herself to the point of losing her nose.
This corpse cannot be refined into a different species, so it's not worth Wang Yu investing too much effort in it. He can just find an opportunity to sell it; there are plenty of demonic cultivators who would want it.
After dealing with these issues, Wang Yu continued his journey towards Youzhou.
He remembered that Youzhou was the territory of Jin Lin's lineage.
There is considerable animosity between the two.
If he were to "accidentally" appear in Youzhou, the other side might send assassins to kill him, or they might simply ignore him.
But Kim Myo-sun will definitely be able to find out about this through her spies.
Separated by a golden scale, one might not suspect that he was the one who caused the upheaval at the Heavenly Soul Sect ruins.
That's what we'll do!
…………
…………
Several months later.
Youzhou, the ancient city of Fangcheng.
This is a city not far from Zhuyue Prefecture, and it has a third-grade low-level spiritual vein. The city lord is a Core Formation cultivator from Huangquan Temple.
Vegetarian Restaurant.
Wang, having undergone a makeover, transformed the Earth Demon Mask into a half-mask, exposing his mouth and nose, making it easier for him to enjoy the delicious medicinal cuisine.
He has been staying here for over a month.
While cultivating and refining his own system, he was also listening to the hot news about Zhuyue Prefecture and the Reverse Spirit Blood Sect.
The former will not be discussed for now.
The latter was quite spectacular. Just a few days after he withdrew from the Heavenly Demon Bone Forest, the Reverse Spirit Blood Sect gathered a group of Nascent Soul elders and fought a great battle with the Blood Demon Medicine Kings.
This battle should have swiftly suppressed all the chaos.
Suddenly, two Nascent Soul stage cultivators from the Yellow Springs Temple appeared and forcefully snatched the Blood Demon Ginseng from the hands of the Reverse Spirit Blood Sect.
The Holy Sect was enraged, and the Blood Nether Peak, the number one of the Nine Peaks, produced three late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators.
Blood Axe Demon Lord, Blood Spring Demon Lord, Blood Essence Demon Lord.
These three brothers grew up together and forged their innate blood spiritual roots using the evil Blood Spring Technique. At over 1,200 years old, they cultivated to the eighth level of the Nascent Soul stage and had the potential to break through to the Divine Transformation stage.
They are also the three strongest members of the Nine Peaks of the Reverse Spirit Blood Sect on the surface.
After leaving the mountain, the two sides first fought a battle at the ruins of the ancient Heavenly Soul Sect. The Yellow Springs Temple was unprepared and suffered a great defeat!
The ruins were taken over by the Reverse Spirit Blood Sect.
In terms of results, one Nascent Soul cultivator was captured alive, two Nascent Soul cultivators had their physical bodies destroyed, leaving only their Nascent Souls to escape, and the Blood Demon Ginseng was also retrieved.
The blood demon power contained within these medicine kings seems to be very important to the Reverse Spirit Blood Sect, otherwise they wouldn't have gone to such lengths.
In response to this.
The Yellow Springs Temple was also furious, but they knew they had violated the taboo of the Reverse Spirit Blood Sect and dared not launch a full-scale war, lest other forces take advantage of the situation.
So they secretly made some underhanded moves in Zhuyue Prefecture.
Six of the nine city lords died at once, and the remaining three Holy Sect city lords were also severely injured, suffering a crushing defeat.
One side suffered a loss, but overall the Reverse Spirit Blood Sect came out on top. As a result, the war in Zhuyue Prefecture was suspended, and the two sides entered a long negotiation phase again.
These are all things that Wang Yu has gradually gathered and discovered over this period of time, and there are certainly many details that have not yet been disclosed.
In particular, the handling of the ancient Heavenly Soul Sect ruins and the lack of follow-up to the poisonous beasts in the Heavenly Demon Bone Forest remain unknown. What exactly happened is still unknown.
In short, it has little to do with him; just keep that in mind.
Besides gathering information, they also made some gains in other areas.
He frequented the Tianbao Pavilion in Youzhou, traveling to several cities before finally gathering the spiritual herbs needed for two third-tier pill formulas. One of them could help his divine sense break through to a new level.
It is currently being placed.
After satisfying his cravings for a long time, Wang Yu showed a contented expression.
"So refreshing!"
