Chapter 500 Returning to the Sect and the Gu Poison Peak
Hold the longbow in your hand and sense its spirituality with your mind.
Wang Yu quickly received an intimate response, just like his relationship with Xue Yu, from which he could sense that pure emotion.
Dependence and reverence coexist.
The Sun-Piercing Demon Bow has had a master since its creation, and barring any unforeseen circumstances... it is the only one.
From then on.
Having achieved all their goals in coming to the Myriad Treasures Secret Realm, the two left the secret realm first and went directly to the Wonderful Benevolence Hall to bid farewell.
According to the original plan, he had several other trips similar to the Myriad Treasures Secret Realm, but after realizing the opportunity for the fusion of ice and flame, he decided not to go anymore.
Inside the Miaoshan Hall.
Yan Ling stood on the steps outside the hall, waiting.
Jin Miaoshan gently hugged Wang Yu, but instead of saying anything complicated, she gave him some instructions.
"If you find a solution to that matter, be sure to let me know. As long as Jin Manlou is under my control, he will definitely play his due role..."
She was referring, of course, to the Ice Prison Realm's prison.
Wang Yu nodded.
"So, Jin Xuanxuan has made a move?"
"That's right. In six months at most, I will become the sole heir of Jinmanlou. Whether in Chiyuan or Taihu, as long as you mention my name, I can definitely help you avoid a lot of trouble."
"Maybe."
Wang Yu did not deny anything.
In reality, Jin Manlou could only offer limited help to him, and they dared not offend the Nascent Soul Venerable. At most, collecting spiritual items would be much easier in the future.
If he had such a confidante to help him when he was in the Core Formation stage, the meaning would be completely different.
Unfortunately, the time has passed...
But it's good to have this kind of heart.
"They're gone."
"Leaving now? Aren't you going to stay a few more days?"
"No, Junior Sister Yan Ling is still waiting for me."
Instantly.
Kim Myo-sun's eyes became deep and unfathomable.
"A proper junior sister?"
"certainly!"
As the saying goes, "A straight body casts a straight shadow," Wang Yu said with full confidence, "She must be a proper junior sister."
As for...the future, I can't guarantee that.
She didn't press the issue further, but simply asked a few questions before saying something meaningful.
"Really not even staying for one night?"
Wang Yu twitched his index finger slightly, and with great willpower, he looked away.
"No, I have important business to attend to."
"Oh well."
Wang Yu and Yan Ling left Jinchan City that afternoon, heading north towards the mountain gate of the Reverse Spirit Blood Sect.
On the road.
Yan Ling suddenly asked, "When will the next trip to the secret realm be?"
"Holy Lord's Heavenly Palace".
After Wang Yu finished speaking, he thought for a moment and then said...
"I need to go back to the sect to visit Gu Poison Peak. If all goes well, I should spend the next thirty years or so in the sect. If not, I will have to spend some time dealing with this matter."
"If you have any plans, you may go there on your own."
The words were quite clear, but Yan Ling still couldn't help but overthink them.
After all, she only served as a decorative accessory this time.
She received quite a few benefits, but she couldn't help feeling that Wang Yu would look down on her. Compared to the heir of Jin Manlou, her excellence was insignificant.
Feeling anxious and uncertain is a normal emotion.
But as soon as Wang Yu was excluded from the list of potential partners, her emotions quickly calmed down, and she regained her usual icy beauty.
Upon seeing this, Wang Yu inexplicably thought of the Ice Soul Fairy.
These two are considered beauties of the same type; if it weren't for their different appearances, they could easily be mistaken for sisters.
After a moment of silence, Yan Ling spoke again.
"I plan to try my luck at the Yinjian Burial Valley of the Mingshan Sect. After passing the Qiansha Prefecture of the Liantian Demon Sect, I will head east."
“Okay, but let’s go east and circle back after we enter Blood Abyss State. I offended Yin Yang Demon Lord before, so he might not dare to attack me, but you, Junior Sister… are a different story.”
"good."
It's still necessary to be cautious.
The Yin-Yang Demon Lord can use illusion magic to conceal his physical flaws, which shows he cares a great deal about it. The way Wang Yu insulted him so badly shows he harbors resentment; it's perfectly normal for him to set up ambushes and launch sneak attacks.
Having said what needed to be said, both fell silent.
…………
…………
In fact, when the two entered the Blood Abyss State of the Reverse Spirit Blood Sect, they still did not encounter the Yin-Yang Demon Lord's ambush. It seemed like a redundant move, but it was also a necessary precaution.
Half a day passed after they parted ways.
After years apart, the familiar nine twisted mountain peaks came into view, and Wang Yu felt a sense of familiarity. He glanced at the Cold Blood Peak, which was covered with thick frost.
Wang Yu turned around and went straight to the core area of the sect.
—The Blood Demon Palace!
Since the sect leader successfully transformed into a god, the level of the Reverse Spirit Blood Sect has clearly risen to a higher level. This is specifically reflected in the fact that the forces under the sect's command are offering more spiritual items every year.
It is easier to communicate with other dominant forces.
The internal strife within the Red Kite has significantly decreased in level and intensity, and a rare period of peace has arrived. Only the front-line battlefield remains fiercely contested.
Wang Yu showed no intention of providing assistance whatsoever.
On the day he arrived at the sect, he went to visit the Blood-Eyed Demon Dragon's cave. Wang Yu had given him a red jade peach, so he was temporarily out of danger of dying.
However, they may not be able to maintain their form very well.
No matter what kind of living being it is, the time when it is about to die is the weakest period of its life. Its qi and blood are both deficient, and the physical strength that the demon race has is difficult to exert at its peak.
"Senior Yu, Wang Yu has come to pay his respects."
The Demon Dragon Cave, which used to have its doors wide open, was now closed. Wang Yu felt a little uneasy. After knocking on the door for a while, there was no response.
Just as I was about to give up and ask around through other channels...
The cave entrance quietly opened a crack, and a turtle demon manipulated the air currents to deliver a letter, while speaking.
"My Lord Demon Lord, this is a handwritten note left by my master, saying that the old tortoise can only give it to you personally."
Wang Yu accepted it in silence.
His divine sense swept over the information quickly, and he breathed a sigh of relief after capturing it all.
It turns out that he was in seclusion during the demon clan's retreat.
The Alchemy Hall of the Reverse Spirit Blood Sect, together with the Evil Sword Peak and some powerful members of the Zhuo, Zuoqiu, and Yu clans, launched the "Making the Old Useful" strategy.
The purpose of sending a group of dying old men from within the sect to the battlefield was actually to prevent too many young and strong members of the sect from dying and causing a shortage of successors.
Planning for the future.
After all, they were in the vanguard state before, and the number of elite troops lost every day was countless. This strategy cannot be said to be wrong, and it is quite in line with the "national conditions" of Chiyuan.
Humanity? Contribution? Those are things that the righteous path values.
The demonic path only considers the role you can play at the moment. Under such circumstances, the Blood-Eyed Demon Flood Dragon also went to the battlefield between the righteous and demonic factions, but it did not go to the meat grinder like the Thunderfire Temple.
Instead, they followed Xie Xie'an, preparing to take a safe route discovered by him in the desolate ancient plains, making a large detour and heading straight into the heart of Taihu Lake.
This strategy should have been decided by the Blood Demon Palace Master.
The elderly special forces should be able to play a good role, but it's unclear when they will operate; he hasn't received any information about it yet.
Xie Xie'an's presence is quite noticeable in this handwritten letter.
This person disappeared without a trace after obtaining the top-tier Nascent Soul artifact from the Blood Abyss Trial, and his return now came without warning.
In terms of cultivation level, at the very least, he has reached the Nascent Soul stage.
Otherwise, he would surely have died in the desolate ancient plains. Unfortunately, Yu Laodeng's letter did not provide much of an overview of Xie Xie'an, so we could not learn more information.
As for Yu Tangtang, she was originally scheduled to go to the Blackwater Serpent Tribe of the Northern Demon Clan. This demon clan is the mother clan of the Blood-Eyed Demon Dragon, and their blood ties still exist.
However, the Northern Demon Clan participated in the war and further consolidated their position, so Yu Laodeng felt that the Northern Demon Clan was no longer safe.
They have already sent someone to deliver Yu Tangtang to a small spiritual island called Moon Bay near the North Sea in the Chaotic Ancient Sea.
Even Yan Ling was unaware of these messages; if she had known, she wouldn't have asked her to deliver the imperial decree.
After a moment's thought, Wang Yu recorded the information using a sound transmission talisman.
He sent it to Yan Ling's cave. He was going to Gu Poison Peak and didn't have time to deal with these matters for the time being. He could make the trip when Yan Ling returned.
Take care of all the miscellaneous tasks.
Wang Yu went up to Gu Poison Peak again. He had only looked at this place from afar before and had never actually stepped into it. This was his first time, so it was quite unfamiliar to him.
As one of the nine peaks and one hall of the Reverse Spirit Blood Sect, ranking fifth, it openly possesses three Nascent Soul cultivators: the Five Poison Evil Monarch, the Myriad Gu Insect Demon, and the Gu Poison Mountain Lord.
Only the Ten Thousand Gu Insect Demon has reached the late Nascent Soul stage, and is also the number one Gu Daoist of the Reverse Spirit Blood Sect, skilled in controlling "swarm Gu" like the Ice Flame Butterfly.
The Five Poisons Evil Lord, on the other hand, is skilled at controlling Gu worms with outstanding individual abilities, thus dividing the Gu Dao school of Gu Poison Peak into two types.
Before fusing with the Ice Flame, the Ice Flame Butterfly must be upgraded to the peak of the fourth tier in terms of overall strength, so that the accompanying Gu Fire can meet the strength requirements for fusion.
The person Wang Yu needed to consult was none other than the Demon of Ten Thousand Gu Insects.
This person is wicked and unruly, and often shirks even the sect leader's arrangements. For example, in the battle with Huangquan Temple, if he were to take action, he would definitely gain the upper hand in the local battlefield.
This is an affirmation of the strength of the Zerg swarm he controls!
The Hall of Gu Poison.
An old man, dressed in a black robe and emaciated like a skeleton, covered only by a thin layer of skin, listened in astonishment to the servant's report.
“The Supreme Law Profound Pill Demon Lord? Wang Yu? What is he doing at Gu Poison Peak... He's not... Never mind, let's invite him in.”
He was instinctively about to refuse when he suddenly thought of something.
Because the Demon of Ten Thousand Gu Insects used the excuse of breaking through his cultivation realm to avoid going to the battlefield between the righteous and demonic realms, the only option left was to have the mountain lord of Gu Poison Peak fill this gap in the strength, which was truly unfortunate.
He then felt perfectly justified in staying within the sect.
If this continues, he will be forcibly dragged into the battlefield sooner or later, especially since the sect leader's strength is somewhat insufficient after breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage. Therefore, he intends to hear Wang Yu's purpose.
There might be room for maneuver. Wan Gu deliberately stayed in the sect, not to avoid battle, but because there was something he really needed to do in a safe place.
otherwise.
No matter what, I have to go to the battlefield and give my "little darlings" a good meal. Raising too many insect swarms is a burden even for a Nascent Soul cultivator.
A moment later.
As Wang Yu stepped into the hall, he immediately saw the Insect Demon waiting for him in the main seat and bowed.
"I, Wang, have met Brother Wan Gu."
"Fellow Daoist, there's no need for such formalities. We are all of the same lineage, so there's no need to be so distant."
"Brother Wan Gu is too kind. You are an elder, so this courtesy is certainly appropriate."
After speaking in a seemingly respectable manner, Wang Yu sat down.
After the waiters served the spiritual tea and all withdrew, Wang Yu got straight to the point: "The reason I came here is to ask you, fellow Daoist, for some secret methods for cultivating Gu worms."
Wan Gu's eyes darted around.
"The request is simple, but..."
"There are countless secret techniques in the world, but the Gu Dao technique is probably the most numerous, encompassing all kinds of strange and wonderful things. Does Fellow Daoist Wang have any specific requirements?"
"Quickly, without worrying about the potential for the Gu worms to continue growing, even if they die quickly after use, it's fine."
"A swarm of Gu?"
"right."
After a quick exchange, the Demon of Ten Thousand Gu Insects burst into laughter.
"We demonic cultivators have almost everything that can be done quickly and without regard for consequences. I do have quite a few of these kinds of Gu-style evil arts here."
After revealing the bait, Wan Gu changed the subject.
"but……
"The sect has its own rules. Items not in the Scripture Hall are my private collection, and they are not cheap."
Since we've already come to ask for help...
Wang Yu had long been prepared to be slaughtered.
"Brother Dao, please name your price. I am, after all, a fourth-tier top-grade alchemist. I have the resources to purchase a secret technique. How many top-grade spirit stones?"
This passage also contains a hidden meaning: by revealing his alchemy skills, he can turn the transaction into an exchange of favors. Since the other party has not reached the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul stage, he must need a fourth-tier spirit pill.
However.
This time, Wang Yu miscalculated. Wan Gu didn't want the alchemist's favor, nor did he need top-grade spirit stones.
He said, "I'll forget about top-grade spirit stones. Although they are rare, they are also treasures that exist in large quantities. But my secret technique is a unique inheritance."
"I can guarantee that I will never spread the teachings after I obtain them."
Wan Gu shook his head again.
"Fellow Daoist Wang, please don't be hasty. The transaction is... possible! But you must offer the reward I desire."
"Tell me more about it."
After about half a cup of tea's time.
Wang Yu left the Gu Poison Hall with a gloomy expression. Things were not going well; the other party's demands were too outrageous, and he had no way of agreeing to them.
There are three conditions for Wan Gu.
Firstly, it was to provide food for the insect colony he was raising for a century.
Typical trap requirements.
Secondly, offering five free pill refining sessions is an outrageous demand, taking too long and not worth it at all.
Thirdly, it requires his own blood essence, three drops!
This is the most outrageous and absolutely unacceptable. A cultivator's essence and blood involve many aspects, and there are also many unpredictable and treacherous demonic techniques.
There is also a demon lord who is proficient in evil curses.
They can then use essence, blood, personal items, etc. as mediums to cast spells, and essence is something that must never be leaked.
The fact that the other party brought it up like that clearly shows they have no sincerity in making a deal.
We're just toying with him, why should we give him any more face? If all else fails, killing him and using Soul Search is also a way to obtain the secret technique.
Since the other party doesn't care about the bond between fellow disciples, why should he care?
They were treated directly as righteous cultivators.
As he was preparing to leave using the Aurora Escape Technique, he suddenly remembered something and casually pulled aside a cultivator from Gu Poison Peak to ask him a question.
Is Elder Liu inside the peak?
The disciple was taken aback.
"Which Elder Liu?"
Realizing what had happened, he immediately prostrated himself, banging his head on the ground, worried that he had offended this senior.
"Is Liu Jinxian, or her father, still alive?"
"Yes, yes... This disciple will show you the way."
I recently had some health problems, so I went to see a traditional Chinese medicine doctor.
In short... I can't sit for long periods of time.
