"Zhao Tianlong, an inner disciple of the Black Heaven Sect. He concealed his identity as a spy from the Underworld of the Demonic Dao. He was once a perfected Nascent Soul cultivator, but his current cultivation is at the mid-stage Nascent Soul realm. It is suspected that he used some kind of secret technique to cripple his own cultivation and cultivate a Supreme Technique …"
Chu Kuangren looked at the young disciple in front of him who was staring at him with a face full of passion, and he could not help but reveal a hint of playfulness in his eyes.
Weren't the demonic path disciples afraid of him to death?
How could this guy look at him with such worship?
Tsk, his acting skills are not bad.
Chu Kuangren smiled and gave them their prizes. He then said calmly, "Work hard, all of you are the future of the Black Heaven Sect."
Zhao Tianlong nodded excitedly. "Yes, Sect Master!"
Humph.
The future of the Black Heaven Sect? Chu Kuangren, you would never have guessed that I'm a spy from the Underworld Palace!
One day, I will dig out all the secrets of the Black Heaven Sect and send them back to the headquarters to kill you all.
At that time, I will be the greatest hero of the Demonic Path!
Hahaha …
Thinking up to this point, an excited expression appeared on Zhao Tianlong's face. In the eyes of others, this was just him feeling happy that he was about to become a successor disciple. Thus, he did not think too much about it.
After awarding the prizes to the few disciples, Chu Kuangren walked into the Longevity Hall and said to Elder Ruyan, "Give me Zhao Tianlong's information later. Once the crowd has dispersed, bring him over."
Elder Ruyan was taken aback. "Is there a problem with this person?"
"Yes."
"Alright, I understand."
Elder Ruyan nodded.
Not long after, a document appeared in Chu Kuangren's hands. It was the entire process of Zhao Tianlong's entry into the sect.
According to the information, Zhao Tianlong's cultivation was only at the Foundation Establishment Realm when he first joined the sect. In just over a year, he had advanced from the Foundation Establishment Realm to the Nascent Soul Realm. The speed of his advancement far surpassed that of his peers.
When Chu Kuangren used the Eye of Revelation to observe the other party, it showed that the other party's original cultivation level was at the Nascent Soul Realm, but he later used some kind of secret technique to destroy his own cultivation level and start from scratch.
"Tsk, in order to conceal his identity as a disciple of the Demonic Dao, he sacrificed quite a lot. He was originally at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, so it was quite fast for him to cultivate again. It's not strange for him to reach the Nascent Soul stage from Qi Condensation in a short year …"
"The people of Hell … might make for a good pawn."
Chu Kuangren muttered.
After a while.
Zhao Tianlong arrived at the Longevity Hall.
Deep down, he was secretly delighted. Could it be that Chu Kuangren had summoned him alone to give him a special reward?
Come to think of it, Chu Kuangren had managed to advance from the Foundation Establishment Realm to the Mid-Nascent Soul Realm in just a year. No matter which orthodoxy he was in, he would be the top sky-pride. It was reasonable for Chu Kuangren to value him.
What was he going to reward him with?
Pills, weapons, could it be some kind of Saint Technique?
Zhao Tianlong felt a little excited just thinking about it.
"The newly promoted direct disciple, Zhao Tianlong, greets the Sect Master!"
"En, you're welcome."
"May I know why the Sect Leader has suddenly summoned me?"
"It's like this. Now that you've become a true disciple, you're now qualified to comprehend the twelve Sage Techniques of our Black Heaven Sect. Have you decided which one you want to comprehend?"
Chu Kuangren chuckled.
"Sure enough, Chu Kuangren is secretly trying to promote me. He's even planning to open the back door for me and secretly give me pointers."
Zhao Tianlong thought complacently.
"Please give me pointers, Sect Leader."
"Not pointers, but I'm a little curious. Do the Underworld Palace have more Sage Techniques or the Black Heaven Sect?"
As soon as he said that, Zhao Tianlong's face turned extremely pale. His hands and feet turned cold and he could not help but tremble.
His initial complacency vanished in an instant and was replaced by a great fear that shrouded him from head to toe!
"Sect … Sect Leader, what are you talking about?"
He said with a trembling voice.
"What, you don't know? I thought that since you've done so much for the Underworld Palace, crippling your own cultivation and infiltrating my Black Heaven Sect as a spy, the Underworld Palace would at least reward you with a Sage Technique. Don't tell me that the Underworld Palace is so stingy that they wouldn't even give you such a reward? "
Chu Kuangren sat in the Longevity Hall and said playfully.
After hearing his words, Zhao Tianlong's body went limp and he immediately knelt on the ground. His body could not help but tremble. He wanted to say something, but his throat seemed to be stuck, so he could not utter a single word.
"What, you don't want to argue anymore?"
"Sect Leader, Sect Leader, please spare my life."
Zhao Tianlong begged for mercy, but it was as if he had used up all the energy in his body. His body was covered in a layer of cold sweat.
"Tell me, how many times have you sent news to the Underworld Palace in the past year? What kind of news? "Chu Kuangren asked calmly.
Zhao Tianlong was terrified. He did not expect Chu Kuangren to see through his identity the first time he met him.
Not only that, Chu Kuangren even knew that he was from the Underworld Palace and that he had crippled his own cultivation.
This was not as simple as him giving himself away. He even suspected that Chu Kuangren had planted spies in the Underworld Palace, and the higher-ups at that too. Otherwise, how could Chu Kuangren know so much about him?
"A total of two times. The first was when I first arrived at the Black Heaven Sect to report to the Underworld Palace, and the second was to report on the Black Heaven Sect's basic situation, including the Sword Gauntlet, the Gravity Training Grounds, and other cultivation grounds …"
Zhao Tianlong did not dare to hide anything and told Chu Kuangren everything. Beside him, Elder Ruyan listened with a gloomy expression.
Zhao Tianlong did not divulge much information, so it did not affect the Black Heaven Sect too much.
However, this was only because he had only been in the Black Heaven Sect for slightly more than a year. What if he was given more time?
Not to mention that he had already become a True Disciple and was qualified to come into contact with the true secrets of the Black Heaven Sect.
For example, Sage Techniques, spiritual rice farming, the Marrow Cleansing Pool, and so on.
If these were to spread, Elder Ruyan could not imagine how much of an impact it would have on the Black Heaven Sect!
"Sect Leader, it's my fault for letting a spy infiltrate the Black Heaven Sect. Please punish me, Sect Leader!" Elder Ruyan said guiltily.
"Well, you can't be blamed for this. The Underworld Palace is cunning and cunning. Since that person destroyed his own cultivation base, it's only natural that you couldn't detect it. Just pay more attention from now on," Chu Kuangren said.
If not for his Eye of Revelation, he would not have noticed it either.
"Sect Leader, what should we do about Zhao Tianlong?"
A cold glint flashed across Elder Ruyan's eyes.
When Zhao Tianlong heard that, he quickly kowtowed and begged for mercy. "Please spare my life, Sect Leader. I … I will definitely give my all for the Black Heaven Sect in the future. I swear that I will never contact the Underworld again."
"No, I want you to continue being a spy."
Chu Kuangren suddenly uttered something shocking.
Astonished expressions appeared on the faces of Elder Ruyan and Zhao Tianlong.
"I want you to continue being a spy. Of course, we'll decide what information you send back to the Underworld Palace."
Chu Kuangren smiled.
Elder Ruyan's eyes lit up when she heard that.
She understood what Chu Kuangren meant. The Underworld Palace had planted a spy in the Black Heaven Sect, but the Black Heaven Sect had used that spy to send false information to the Underworld Palace to mislead them.
"What a great idea, Sect Leader." Elder Ruyan praised.
Zhao Tianlong breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that. Was it not just a spy from the Underworld Palace becoming a spy for the Black Heaven Sect?
To him, it was nothing.
As long as he could survive.
