Chapter 648: Chapter 518 Western Hong Demon Catcher Goes Online

```

Boom!

Just as Yan Chongzhang leaped onto the mountain peak, his expression changed slightly, and he forcibly halted his momentum.

He saw that not far ahead, a gaunt old man clad in hemp clothes had been standing there with his hands behind his back, gazing toward the direction of Nameless Mountain from afar.

"Master."

Yan Chongzhang quickly greeted with a fist and palm salute, then suddenly felt he was being mindless.

The other party, being a cultivator at the Unity Realm Stage, was no different from heaven and earth within the Ban Shan Sect, so how could he not be aware of what was happening at Nameless Mountain?

"You’ve seen it as well."

Yan Chongzhang’s face carried an uncontrollable excitement, and his voice became somewhat dry and hoarse.

This was a great opportunity for the entire Ban Shan Sect.

The mountain that had been relocated here since the founding of the sect finally had a glimmer of hope of being completely unveiled.

It could very well be a complete set of Immortal Law!

But what surprised Yan Chongzhang was that his master’s expression did not show much change, and his eyes betrayed no emotion.

He hesitatingly said, "You don’t want to offend the Seven Sons of South Hong?"

Upon hearing this, the Sect Master of Ban Shan gave Yan Chongzhang a sidelong glance without much intent to explain, saying, "Put away that impetuousness, let everything proceed as usual, treat him as you normally would."

It’s just recruiting a disciple, not killing their Daozi.

With the power of Ban Shan Sect, there’s no need to fear the Seven Sons of South Hong, who live secluded from the rest.

However, the identity of that youth is indeed a bit peculiar.

It’s better to investigate clearly before acting.

Such a genius, with an abundant lifespan, the Seven Sons of South Hong would not truly put him in danger; there’s no need to rush this matter.

Just don’t know what kind of price it will take for him to join another sect.

The Sect Master of Ban Shan remained calm.

Wondering if promising a future Unity Realm treasure land would be enough?

If he could truly unlock the secrets within Nameless Mountain, he would not be stingy, but judging from the youth’s reaction earlier, the latter did not seem to have an easy time comprehending the True Intent of Shen Yue...

To say it more bluntly,

Most of Shen Yi’s reactions were more like those of an extremely obtuse cultivator, one who could be expelled by Nameless Mountain at any moment.

But the mystery lay in his ability to digest these adverse reactions at an alarmingly fast rate and resist the expulsive force of Nameless Mountain. The combination of the two accounted for an astounding outcome.

However, after leaving Nameless Mountain, beneath that seemingly calm exterior, there was a huge potential problem that even made the Sect Master of Ban Shan feel a slight tremor in his heart.

The exhaustion in Shen Yi’s eyes was like carrying the weight of a mountain for ten thousand years, walking an endless road, with his spirit nearly on the verge of collapse.

This was not the kind of reaction one would have from just three short days of meditation.

If one were to make a comparison, it was more like a forbidden technique that overtaxed the body, squeezing out lifespan for a momentary boost, except that what this youth in black was overtaxing was his Divine Soul. As for the price he paid, that remained unknown.

But regardless, it was hard to believe he could replicate this action.

"Sigh."

As the leader of a sect, there were far too many considerations the old man had to take into account, and he mustn’t be too impulsive.

However...no matter what, it was always beneficial to be in the good graces of this young cultivator in advance.

One-style Divine Mountain Technique, if they could obtain it with their ability, regardless of the means used, then it was only right to give it to the Seven Sons of South Hong.

To be difficult about this afterwards would be quite demeaning.

"The disciple understands."

Yan Chongzhang bowed deeply, watching as his master’s figure slowly faded into the distance and eventually disappeared.

After the other had left, he straightened his body again and rubbed his nose forcefully.

Treat normally?

He was hardly in the right state of mind to remain calm in the presence of Shen Yi.

Upon seeing Shen Yi’s fair countenance, he always felt like all the hardships he’d suffered over tens of thousands of years were for naught...and rather foolish.

...

At the base of Nameless Mountain.

Yang Yunheng watched with furrowed brows as Yan Chongzhang returned looking somewhat dejected, as if guessing something, but with several Daozi of South Hong nearby, he could only prod indirectly, "Why have you returned so soon?"

"It’s nothing."

Yan Chongzhang forced a smile and shook his head.

Having barely had a chance to glimpse the second complete Mountain Law, he had to suppress his eagerness, which would be difficult for anyone to bear.

"Alas."

Yang Yunheng could not help but sigh.

Wei Yuanzhou and the other two remained silent, diverting their gaze as if they heard nothing.

The intentions of Ban Shan Sect were almost written on their faces, and as individuals of high caliber, how could they not see through this?

Previously, nobody cared about Ban Shan Sect’s little schemes, and Bai Wu even found it amusing, since who could match the Seven Sons of South Hong in offering a Unity Realm treasure land and the position of a sect master to retain Shen Yi.

But now it was different.

After witnessing such astonishing actions from Sect Master Shen, Ban Shan Sect, if they clenched their teeth...they might indeed be willing to give it up!

Keep in mind that Ban Shan Sect was more substantial than at least two Heavenly Sword Sects put together.

Being the sect master here, compared to the declining Nanyang Treasure Land, the difference was too great.

From the looks of Yan Chongzhang’s attitude, he seemed not to mind leaving the main sect’s treasure land to Shen Yi and moving to the sub-sect’s treasure land to become the Daozi.

Therefore, even Su Hongxiu, currently, would not speak further on this topic.

Lest she go out on this errand and end up gifting a sect master to someone else, which would be too embarrassing to return to South Hong.

Both parties had different thoughts, falling into silence.

Shen Yi, on the other hand, seemed like an outsider to the situation, taking Treasure Pills one after another and placing them into his mouth.

"Gulp."

Yang Yunheng swallowed, watching anxiously, "Shen Yi, take it easy... those are elixirs..."

"I know."
