Chapter 1407: Chapter 1407: The Beginning of the Demonic Path

Beginning of the Demonic Path

Upon the sound of his voice, the Demonic Path man’s figure instantly disappeared from the spot, and even Mo Ningchen, who had his Divine Sense locked onto the opponent, lost his trace in a blink of an eye.

By the time Mo Ningchen became aware, the man from the Demonic Path with wings on his back had already appeared right above Mo Ningchen. A black spear appeared in his hand, smashing directly towards Mo Ningchen’s Heavenly Spirit Cover!

Boom!

A huge collision erupted at the entrance of the Thousand Tents Palace, and the rampaging Demonic Qi spread in every direction. The group of guards joined forces to resist but could only create a small safe area amid the chaos.

"Not bad, you actually reacted, it seems like incompetents are indeed a minority among the Demon Slayer Saints..."

The dust hadn’t yet settled, but the man from Demonic Path had already clearly grasped Mo Ningchen’s condition.

Not dead?

No, not even injured.

"Middle Grade Martial Emperor strength comparable to Martial God, this level for a Demon Slayer Saint is passable."

The man from Demonic Path casually commented on Mo Ningchen’s strength, seemingly unconcerned about the fact that his strike didn’t succeed.

In the midst of the dust, Mo Ningchen, with an even more solemn expression, waved his hand to disperse the Demonic Qi around him and spoke to the man in front of him, "Have you had contact with the Demon Slayer Department? Who exactly are you?"

There are many related to the Demonic Path within the Demon Slayer Department, but those still at large are extremely rare.

The rise of the Demonic Path after the incident at Dadao Mountain mostly involves the newer generation. Most of them have not even come into contact with the Demon Slayer Department, let alone operated within Xia Country.

It is exactly their incredibly low-profile way of operating that forced them to delve deep into the Bei Luo Empire to investigate traces of the Demonic Path.

"Of course, I’ve had contact, and not just with one. I remember back when I was a mere cultivator, I had seen a Demon Slayer Saint. It must be said, even after seeing so many so-called beauties of the Mortal World since then, none compare to her."

"Moon Han?"

Hearing the man’s description, the first image that came to Mo Ningchen’s mind was that of Ye Qingci.

Among the Demon Slayer Saints, the female Saints all have remarkable beauty, but the one who immediately comes to mind is Ye Qingci who has made it onto the Red List.

"Congratulations, you guessed right. Unfortunately, after Dadao Mountain, I never saw this Fairy of the Mortal World again... It really is a pity..."

Dadao Mountain, a word that Mo Ningchen captured acutely, his pupils constricting for a moment as he finally recalled the name of the man before him. Speaking with utmost seriousness, "Are you Cui Manlou?"

Old Capital City.

After a life-and-death struggle, and before establishing himself at Mount Qilong, Su Chengyu had such a conversation at Ye Qingci’s residence.

"Aunt Ye, was the incident at Dadao Mountain the beginning of the Demonic Path surfacing? What exactly happened then?"

Ye Qingci, who was meditating, slightly turned her head upon hearing this, pondering for a moment before saying, "The coming of the Immortal Mansion attracted the attention of many clans and Loose Cultivators. I was originally dispatched to coordinate with the Dragon Soul Department for order management."

Listening to this, Su Chengyu felt something was amiss and questioned, "Shouldn’t this be fully managed by the Dragon Soul Department?"

"Listen to me."

Ye Qingci’s words immediately made Su Chengyu shut up obediently, only then did Ye Qingci continue speaking.

"Indeed, this kind of matter should originally be handled by the Dragon Soul Department. However, the level of that Immortal Mansion is too high, and from the external formations, it appears to have been a cultivation site of an ascended Immortal. Moreover, for some reason, the news has spread very widely, leading the Dragon Soul Department to judge that they cannot completely control the situation, hence they had no choice but to request assistance from our Demon Slayer Department."

"When I arrived at the scene, everything was normal at first, and although there were some minor conflicts between the clans and loose cultivators, due to the face of the Dragon Soul Department, they did not directly break into conflict until the day the prohibitions of the Immortal Mansion completely disappeared."

"Almost everyone who entered the Immortal Mansion started fighting with others within half a day of entering it. Initially, the Dragon Soul Department didn’t pay much attention, thinking it was just an escalation of conflict, simply trying their best to mediate, until I personally arrived and confirmed that these people were not just simply clashing, but rather were influenced by Demonic Qi, leading to the collapse of their Dao Heart."

"I decisively started looking for the mastermind behind all this, planning to solve everything from the source. After breaking through numerous prohibitions to find that person, I had not expected that the individual who first obtained the Demonic Path inheritance was merely a loose cultivator of the Tongxuan Realm."

"Tongxuan Realm?"

Su Chengyu, upon hearing this answer, couldn’t help but inhale a breath of cold air.

Although Ye Qingci did not specifically describe the strength of the attending clan and loose cultivators, judging from the fact that even after the Dragon Soul Guard from the Dragon Soul Department was sent, they were still not able to fully control the situation.

There must have been quite a few Nascent Soul Realm cultivators and even high-level experts of Martial Emperor grade, yet such beings were manipulated by someone in the Tongxuan Realm, which was astonishingly shocking.

"Of course, that was before he integrated the Demonic Path inheritance. He set up traps to use the cultivation of these clans and loose cultivators as a tool for his own integration of the Demonic Path. My appearance forced him to inherit the Demonic Path inheritance prematurely. Two Nascent Soul cultivators, three Martial Emperors, and countless Golden Core cultivators along with Martial Arts Supreme all became the blood sacrifice for his integration of the Demonic Path inheritance. Even the Dragon Soul Department suffered losses of several Dragon Soul Guards, eventually fleeing from Dadao Mountain."

"Aunt Ye, didn’t you hold him back?"

"He was injured by my sword, realized he was no match for me, and decisively chose to flee. I couldn’t keep him."

Ye Qingci spoke in a calm tone, but Su Chengyu could sense from her words an underlying dissatisfaction with himself.

Even if she was temporarily lent to the Dragon Soul Department for coordination, this mission was the only tragic failure in Ye Qingci’s career.

"Has that person appeared again after Dadao Mountain?"

"No, after Dadao Mountain, the Demonic Path began to move again in Xia Country, but that guy has vanished like evaporated from the mortal world. However, based on the clues I provided, the Demon Slayer Department has confirmed his identity."

"Who?"

"An expelled disciple of Quanzhen Sect, Cui Manlou."

Bang!

Accompanied by a loud sound, Mo Ningchen was sent flying violently, crashing to the ground in a sorry state, as blood instantly flowed out.

Mo Ningchen struggled to his feet, looking disheveled at the person in front of him.

"Cui Manlou! Isn’t your target the Bei Luo Queen? Why waste time here with me!"

Hearing this, Cui Manlou chuckled slightly: "That’s the target they set. No one can constrain how I, Cui Manlou, choose to act. Of course, you’re not my target either, but staying here, I know the person I’m searching for will naturally show up."

Having said this, Cui Manlou’s gaze moved past Mo Ningchen, quickly locking onto a seemingly ordinary woman among the crowd.

Cui Manlou gently raised his hand, and Fang Qing among the crowd was immediately caught by a hand from the void, lifting her into the air.

Watching Fang Qing’s terrified face, Cui Manlou spoke with a slight smile, "If he doesn’t show up soon, I might have to start by killing you to boost the mood."
