Chapter 218: Chapter 11 Evolution! [Seeking monthly ticket!]_1

Yang Yuhu’s journey around the world to Penglai and the arrival of the Yellow Dragon Daoist in the Eastern Sea through vertical golden light took only a moment. In such a short period of time, the tiny maggot baby naturally could not eat the entire massive black iron bowl.

Just now, when the maggot baby wormed its way into the black iron bowl for a feeding frenzy, it grew larger as it excreted golden threads. The larger it grew, the faster it ate...and the faster it ate, the larger it grew.

In the end, it grew into a white worm the size of a palm in a short span of time!

Only when its size had increased so much did Chu Liang see clearly that it was not a real maggot, but it had a few pairs of tiny golden short legs, a golden mouth, and its body swelled segment by segment.

Rather than calling it a maggot baby, it was more like a silkworm baby; what’s more, it could even spin a thread...although it was from behind.

This little silkworm baby of white and gold hue had eaten a large chunk of black iron. It had already carved a gap into the entire bowl, the array rune was damaged, and the effect of the suppression was essentially broken.

On top of that, the owner of the magic artifact had already left, and it therefore became a masterless damaged artifact.

Chu Liang reluctantly put in a trace of True Qi and accepted it.

Although the array rune was damaged and could not be used, and the repair also had its difficulties, it was still an excellent choice to feed the silkworm baby.

Just as he had put away the broken black iron bowl and the silkworm baby, he sensed a flash of golden light in the sky. The Yellow Dragon Daoist had arrived with Yang Yuhu.

Hearing Yang Yuhu’s question, he responded with an "Ah," his mind spinning rapidly, and then he answered simply: "I still managed to break that magic artifact in some way. After the array rune was damaged, it could no longer suppress people and I kept it."

As he was speaking, he gently shook the damaged bowl in his palm, then put it away again.

"What?" Yang Yuhu was taken aback yet again.

Just now, he had experienced the hardness of that bowl. With little progress even with his full strength, Chu Liang was only at the early stage of Golden Core. How could he...?

But then considering the startling sword strike he had used to almost kill the demonic cultivator, it didn’t seem completely impossible.

That was terrifying!

This man was by no means ordinary!

While he was merely surprised, the Yellow Dragon Daoist on the other side was looking somewhat displeased.

If his disciple was truly in a life or death crisis, he wouldn’t have minded rushing to the rescue with vertical golden light. But now, a disciple at the early Golden Core stage could break the magic artifact and escape, yet Yang Yuhu was not able to, seeking to return to the mountain for help?

The Yellow Dragon Daoist looked at Yang Yuhu, his eyes slightly dim.

He pondered whether his disciple was too delicate?

He was about to have a breakthrough in enlightenment and for a Seventh Realm powerhouse, if he missed one opportunity to understand, he might need to cultivate for several more years. He rushed over without hesitation to save you and found no danger at all. It was natural to feel annoyed.

Of course.

If Chu Liang had known about his thoughts, he would have found it strange too... oh, so people in the Seventh Realm still needed time for enlightenment?

Wasn’t this master too delicate?

Yang Yuhu caught the Yellow Dragon Daoist’s look right away. But he didn’t know how to explain: that he, at the late stage of Golden Core, had a higher cultivation level than Chu Liang was true, but the terrifying sword Qi surpassing realms was also a fact.

For a moment, he couldn’t explain it clearly, and could only look at his Master with a pitiful expression in his eyes.

Injustice.

...

Now that the Yellow Dragon Daoist had arrived, he accompanied his disciple to the City Warden Yamen in Yanbo City.

On the way, they coincidentally ran into Du Ce and his subordinates who were rushing over, followed by Lin Bei and Shang Ziliang.

After leaving the city, they encountered a group of demon sect cultivators intercepting them and a battle ensued. In the end, they killed three demonic cultivators and captured one alive, who chose to self-destruct and die, causing some chaos.

Their sole purpose was to stop the reinforcements from Yanbo City with their lives, buying time for the middle-aged man to escape.

Upon hearing this, Chu Liang slightly furrowed his brows, lost in thought.

Du Ce, seeing the Yellow Dragon Daoist, was naturally very respectful. He welcomed him all the way to the City Warden Yamen and invited him to take the seat of honor.

As a Confucian cultivator of the Fifth Realm, he was indeed much inferior to a powerhouse of the Seventh Realm who held real power in the Penglai Upper Sect. Let alone his imperial court background, even the Lord Regent of Yu City would have to show some respect to the Yellow Dragon when coming face to face with him.

The Yellow Dragon Daoist was not modest either and took the seat of honor directly, then said, "Yanbo City is located in one of the prosperous regions of the Eastern Area and there are not many traces of demonic cultivators. Today, who exactly are these people who dared to be so arrogant?"

"They are from the Soul Slaughter Sect." Du Ce replied.

He paused for a moment, then added, "The perpetrator of the serial heart-ripping cases in Yanbo City should be a disciple of the Soul Slaughter Sect. And the mastermind who kidnapped him should be Chen Wuyin, the current sect master of the Soul Slaughter Sect and a fugitive wanted by the imperial court. Other than him, no one else could command several demon sect cultivators to guard the rear."

After being suppressed for many years, the Soul Slaughter Sect, though still stubbornly surviving, was no longer the same as before. Chen Wuyin, the sect master of this generation, only had cultivation at the fifth realm.

But he was the only expert of the Fifth Realm within the Soul Slaughter Sect.

However, even as those at the Fifth Realm, he was significantly stronger than those of the Underworld King Sect that Chu Liang had randomly killed in the Zhennan Region’s Mountain.

The higher the realm, the greater the difference that may exist within that realm.

This was not difficult to understand; the maximum difference between the Divine Consciousness Realm could only be between eleven and nineteen, while that of the Golden Core Realm might be between one hundred and one and one hundred and ninety-nine; the difference in the Five Elements Realm could be between one thousand and one to one thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine.

The Yellow Dragon Daoist sneered, "The remnants of the demonic path, barely holding on to life, still dare to put on a brave front!"

At this moment, Chu Liang rose to his feet, "I feel there is something unusual about this matter."

"Hmm?" Du Ce turned to look at Chu Liang and nodded, "You share."

Lin Bei had already told him about Chu Liang discovering the murderer on Flower Street in a timely manner on the way, which made Du Ce admire this quick-witted disciple from Shu Mountain. Now that Chu Liang had something to say, Du Ce immediately offered him respect.

Chu Liang said, "The demonic cultivator who was rescued is merely a cultivator at the peak of the Third Realm, and his True Qi is very chaotic... Yet the Soul Slaughter Sect demon cultivators who were killed while covering his escape were four in number, even including a cultivator of the Golden Core Realm. To say it was simply a rescue mission for a fellow sect member seems unlikely."

This was a simple truth; abandoning four stronger individuals to save a weaker individual was not something a normal person would do.

"Huh?" City Warden Du was taken aback by his line of thinking, then said, "Perhaps the demonic cultivator who was rescued is an important figure in the Soul Slaughter Sect... "

"It’s possible, but unlikely," Chu Liang said, "I briefly fought with him... although he had no power to fight back and didn’t use any magic artifacts or divine skills, his aura is extremely chaotic. He seems like...a loose cultivator."

The demonic cultivator who committed the crime in Yanbo City didn’t seem like a cultivator with a legitimate sect lineage. In fact, if he were a proper demon sect cultivator, he wouldn’t have committed such a crime in Yanbo City at all.

A faction like Chen Wuyin’s Soul Slaughter Sect, that traced its lineage directly from the original sect, already had a mature system for how to grow under the extermination of the righteous paths.

"Hiss." Du Ce mulled it over and knit his eyebrows, "There do seem to be some doubts within this; let’s wait for a detailed investigation tomorrow before drawing any conclusions."

...

Crack——

A thunderbolt cracked across the sky, and a heavy rain poured down. It was the southeast monsoon season in the middle of summer.

Not far from the city, in a broken temple, several figures were resting.

A bolt of lightning illuminated a figure gazing out from the temple door, it was the middle-aged man who had escaped from the Beheading Red Famous Sword.

It was also the current sect master of the Demon Sect’s Soul Slaughter Sect, Chen Wuyin.

On the divine platform behind him, a straw mat was spread out where the vendor lay with his eyes tightly closed. A ghastly wound gushed at his neck, with flesh and blood blurred and indistinct.

Two disciples of the Soul Slaughter Sect were trying to save him, with beads of sweat covering their foreheads.

"Sect Master!" A disciple of the Soul Slaughter Sect said with a difficult expression, "This man is seriously injured, it seems difficult to save him!"

"Yes!" Another disciple of the Soul Slaughter Sect chimed in, "His vitality is cut off, even an immortal can’t save him!"

The vendor, who had been previously struck by Chu Liang’s control technique, was lucky to not have died on the spot.

Let alone having been dragged by Chen Wuyin in a fight and flight situation, it was not surprising that he was beyond help.

"Then just feed him some medicine directly, make him regain consciousness for a while! He must speak!" Chen Wuyin’s face was as cold as ice, "If he can’t open his mouth, kill him and extract his soul so that his spirit can speak!"

Crack——

Another thunderbolt illuminated Chen Wuyin’s grim face.

Seven hundred years ago, the world was in chaos.

The Soul Slaughter Sect gave birth to a master who revived it, known as the Murderous Old Man. Taking advantage of the chaotic world where people were treated as animals, he led the Soul Slaughter Sect to a period of prosperity. Later, when the Yu Dynasty was established and the world was at peace, sects like the Soul Slaughter Sect immediately faced a catastrophe. The Murderous Old Man was pursued and killed by several major powers of the righteous path, eventually dying near the Eastern Sea.

But reliable sources said he didn’t die at the hands of the righteous path, but disappeared by himself after being seriously injured. At that time, he had the most important treasures and inheritance of the Soul Slaughter Sect with him, all of which were lost.

When news emerged that the Soul Slaughter Sect was causing trouble in Yanbo City, Chen Wuyin immediately perceived that this person was very likely to have obtained the inheritance from the burial place of the Murderous Old Man!. He immediately led his subordinates to Yanbo City. Just like the people of the righteous path, he also kept a close eye on the murderer’s news, waiting for him to show up again.

Unfortunately, he was a step slower than Chu Liang...

Chen Wuyin’s voice came out low and rough, "Our Soul Slaughter Sect is already weak, and we lost four brothers to bring him back. If we can’t ascertain the location of the Murderous Old Man’s burial, I won’t let it go!"
