After leaving the black pond, Ji Feichen immediately ran to where Esteemed Blackflow was.
The Esteemed Blackflow was feeding the fish by the pond at the back of the hall. Ji Feichen walked over. The pond was as black as ink, the waves surging violently. His heart was in turmoil.
This pond was called the 'Dragon Illuminating Pond'. It was where the Esteemed Blackflow reared dragonfish. Koi fish could transform into dragonbeasts after consuming many dragon pills here. It was said that a fellow disciple who cultivated the Mystical Fiend Demon Dragon Scripture had been imprisoned here. In the end, his intelligence was erased, and he became a violent demonic dragon.
Furthermore …
He saw the blood pills in Esteemed Blackflow's hands. They were filled with essence energy and dragon qi. These were bait made from the corpses of cultivators who cultivated the Mystical Fiend Demon Dragon Scripture.
A dead person was like an extinguished lamp. The demonic path wouldn't give you a proper burial. They would do their best to squeeze out the value of the corpses to the limit. The core cultivation technique of the Dark Kan Hall, the Mystical Fiend Black Book, was a technique that used white bones.
White bones were used for cultivation, and flesh and blood were used as medicine. The dragonfish that Esteemed Blackflow fed were refined from the flesh and blood of his dead disciples. Through the essence of the flesh and dragon qi, the dragonfish would be nurtured into a demonic dragon step by step.
Strange fishes with sharp teeth swam about in the Black Water. Ji Feichen's expression was unsightly. Thinking about his future, he was even more determined to leave the demonic path.
He took a few steps forward, "Master, grandmaster invites you over."
"Master is looking for me?" Esteemed Blackflow put down the bait in his hand, his expression froze. He might have summoned Ji Feichen here to warn Ji Feichen, telling him not to have any wild thoughts.
Ji Feichen hadn't returned for many days, arousing Esteemed Blackflow's suspicions. Summoning him to the Dragon Illuminating Pond was to warn him not to be half-hearted. Otherwise, he would directly push him into the Dragon Illuminating Pond and have no future to speak of.
But upon hearing that his master was looking for him, Esteemed Blackflow gave up on this thought and asked, "Do you know why master is looking for me?"
"Disciple does not know." Ji Feichen looked at Master Blackflow with a schadenfreude expression.
The Venerable Master's heart skipped a beat. It wasn't just Ji Feichen who did things behind the Venerable Master's back. He did it too. Trust between master and disciple was hard to cultivate unless they were the true successors of the orthodoxy. This was especially so given the relationship between Hall Master Kan Ming and Venerable Blackflow. Master and disciple were in cahoots, but they were wary of each other rather than trusting each other.
Blackflow had a bad premonition when he saw Ji Feichen's expression. He snorted coldly and glared at Ji Feichen. "Then why aren't you leaving?!"
Along the way, the Venerable Master felt uneasy. He thought about all the things he had done in recent years and wondered if he had given himself away.
"Was I the one who encouraged Hei Chi to ascend and secretly lured the faction of the sect leader into the black vein? Or does he want to devour me? Hei Chi is still here, he shouldn't be able to find me. "
Palace Lord Kan Ming's current realm had already reached the peak of the Ground Fairies. As long as he devoured a few more people who cultivated the Dark Underworld Black Fiend Book, he would be able to attain the Heavenly Fiend Dao Fruit.
But who asked him to devour them?
Currently, Blackflow had spread the news that he was pushing his junior brother out. However, it was not impossible for him to target him.
"I've deliberately slowed down my cultivation these few days. I believe that old bastard doesn't think highly of me." Blackflow was worried as he followed Ji Feichen to the main palace of the Dark Underworld Hall.
This place was the core of the Nine Yin Peak. It was shrouded in baleful aura all year round, and the White Bone Fiend occupied the sky. The palace was filled with sinister aura, and there were Ghost Locust Trees, Yin Willows, and Netherworld Cypress. All sorts of dark green trees covered the sky, causing the palace to be dim and devoid of light. Standing at the entrance made one feel depressed.
In front of the palace, there were the words' Dark Underworld 'and a couplet on both sides. On the left, it said, 'Dark Underworld Refines Blood Into Black Ink'. On the right, it said, 'Dark Mountain Sits on the Bones to Give Birth to Acheron'.
"Every time I look at this couplet, I feel a surge of Yin Qi." Ji Feichen sighed inwardly. The main Dark Underworld Hall was built in the style of a tomb. It was completely different from a living building. Walking here was like walking in the netherworld. Cold winds blew and a ghostly aura filled the air.
In particular, the couplet highlighted the essence of the main hall.
By treating the palace where the main hall was located as a tomb, it was why it was called 'Dark Underworld'. Dark Underworld was a tomb. It used the surrounding Nine Yin Peaks as a barrier to represent the Underworld Mountain. Blood refinement here cultivated the Dao of the Black Fiends and refined the White Bone Dao Fruit, which was the root of the Acheron.
It could be said that the black lineage of Yin Ming School was inseparable from the Dao of the White Bone Corpse. Therefore, it was born in opposition to the Dao of the Drought Demon.
The main hall was filled with dense Yin Qi and killing intent. Ordinary disciples did not dare to approach easily. However, Blackflow had been worshiped by his master for many years and was familiar with the place. He smoothly brought Ji Feichen in.
The two walked past the Bridge of Helplessness that was modeled after the netherworld. There was a jade platform by the bridge that received the black ink essence that fell from the sky. This was the Netherworld Blood, condensed from the essence of the baneful aura in Nine Yin Mountain.
Ahead, they crossed the Acheron River. Some eerie white bones were half-exposed at the bottom of the river, forming a sharp contrast with the black ink and the Netherworld Blood. This was the 'Acheron Bone', also a demonic item from the Dark Underworld Hall. It could be used for refining weapons and cultivation.
The Netherworld Blood and the Acheron Bone were the exact opposite of the 'black ink' and 'Acheron' mentioned in the couplets.
The two entered the room and paid their respects to the Dark Underworld Hall Master. After entering and seeing the old man sitting on the round plate in the center, Ji Feichen knelt in front of the old man without a word.
"Grand-disciple congratulates Grandmaster for comprehending the Heavenly Dao and becoming a Skyfiend."
The old man opened his eyes. There were no eyeballs in his eye sockets, only two balls of ghostly fire. "Blackflow, is this your disciple? Why are the two of you here? "
"Master has never seen him before?" Blackflow was shocked and looked at Ji Feichen. He pulled a long face. How could he not know that he had been tricked by Ji Feichen? Ji Feichen had used his teacher as a middleman to jump out of his control.
Blackflow was about to reply when Ji Feichen quickly said, "Disciple went to deliver the medicine to Uncle-Master Hei Chi just now to gain his trust. The day of Grandmaster's dao validation is not far away. "
"Impudent!" Blackflow hurriedly interrupted Ji Feichen and suppressed him with the aura of a Human Immortal. "I told you to bring the demon fox's heart blood, but you actually sent it over there!" He made a prompt decision and directly attacked.
"Wait." Hall Master Kan Ming stretched out his bony arm and lightly pointed with a finger. The Netherworld demonic energy suppressed Blackflow's attack. The two balls of ghostly fire stared at Ji Feichen. "You said that you delivered the medicine so that my old bones could validate the Dao sooner?"
"That's right." Ji Feichen understood that this was his only chance to escape Blackflow's control. He organized his words and said respectfully, "Grandmaster's cultivation has already reached perfection. As long as he snatches Uncle-Master Hei Chi's dao fruit when he ascends, he will definitely be able to go one step further and become a Skyfiend."
Anyone with a discerning eye would understand this point. Thus, Blackflow would definitely choose the right time to avoid Hall Master Kan Ming's plot. He would only return to the Black Vein after he became a Ground Fairies. At that time, the two Ground Fairies would be in charge of the Black Vein, and there would be no two suns in the sky. If someone tipped off Hall Master Kan Ming and revealed the time of Blackflow's ascension, it would be one more layer of insurance.
Blackflow thought about it and hurriedly said, "Master, don't listen to this kid's nonsense. Junior Brother Hei Chi is crafty and might be using his own trick against him. I'm afraid he doesn't trust him at all. Besides, how can this kid hide from junior brother's eyes and ears when he follows me to Kan Ming Hall? "
"It's precisely because I came with Master that I have an excuse to hide it." Ji Feichen argued, "It's because Grandmaster is looking for Master and I'm accompanying him. Grandmaster, if you don't believe me, why not wait a while? In any case, Uncle-Master still needs a few more years to refine pills. Just watch my methods then. "
The old temple master saw the master and disciple arguing in front of him and understood most of the situation. "I'm afraid this pair has long been at odds with each other. Blackflow wants to make a move against his disciple, so this kid has no choice but to take the risk to find me as his backer?"
The old temple master pondered over the two's words. Ji Feichen's words could indeed give him an additional layer of insurance. However, he didn't like being used by this kid. He was about to speak when another boy ran in.
The boy was dressed in a silver robe and had golden hair. He glanced at the two and secretly whispered something into the old man's ears.
The old temple master's expression shifted and landed on Ji Feichen. "You fought with the Qing faction on your way back?"
"That's right. How could those people be my disciple's match?"
Blackflow's heart sank when he heard this. He looked at his master, only to see the old temple master laughing heartily, "Good! Good, good! We should teach the Qing faction a lesson! This will save them the trouble of interfering with our Black faction's matters every day. "
Taking a closer look, Ji Feichen's Demonic Dragon Scripture had reached a bottleneck. He needed the Demonic Dragon True Explanation to advance further.
"Very well, our Black Faction also needs a few capable disciples to suppress the arrogance of the other factions. Blackflow, give him the Darkfiend Demonic Dragon True Explanation later, and tell him to go into seclusion in the Xuanming secret plane and refine a hundred thousand drops of pure water to condense a Dragon Ball. "
The old temple master said meaningfully to Blackflow, "This disciple of yours is not bad. Tell him to go to the Black Pond a little more later. As for the rest, you don't have to worry about it. What five-dragon carriage? That's just a child's toy. Playing with things to the detriment of one's will. How is that how a master should act? "
Master Blackflow wanted to find a dragon beast to pull the carriage. Seeing Ji Feichen's cultivation technique, the old temple master immediately understood the reason behind the conflict between the master and disciple. Thus, he purposely pointed out that Ji Feichen wasn't allowed to have any ideas about the Black faction. At least, he wasn't allowed to make a move before he proved his Dao.
Ji Feichen's expression relaxed. With his grandmaster speaking out, he didn't have to worry about this unscrupulous master of his making things difficult for him.
The two stayed at the old temple master's place for a while. When they walked out of the main hall, Master Blackflow retrieved the Darkfiend Demonic Dragon True Explanation from the library and tossed it to Ji Feichen.
Sizing up his little disciple, the old man said coldly, "Good. You've only been in the sect for a few years, and you're already scheming against your master?"
"It's all thanks to master's teachings," Ji Feichen lowered his head. If it wasn't for Blackflow and the old temple master scheming against each other, and thinking of ways to deal with him every day, why would he need to spend so much effort to deal with so many people?
"Hmph, you're on your own," the aura of a human immortal flashed, and the old man flicked his sleeves and left.
Ji Feichen withstood Master Blackflow's aura head-on, revealing a hint of coldness at the corner of his lips. -Teacher, oh teacher, do you think I don't understand your schemes? If my grandmaster really refines the Darkfiend White Bone Heavenly Demon Body and enters the Nine Hells to become a supreme true demon, you'll dare to break the seal and break through to the Ground Fairies. You'll dare to break the seal and break through to the Ground Fairies. If you become the master of the Black faction, I'll still have to work for you! -
Losing a demonic dragon to pull the carriage was indeed nothing much to Master Blackflow. The key was that Ji Feichen had humiliated him, making him hate him endlessly.
Watching the old man's departing figure, Ji Feichen thought to himself, -To prevent any more twists and turns in the future, I definitely can't let him reap the benefits in the end. -
Ji Feichen wasn't afraid of the demonic sects' schemes all these years.
Since he dared to dance on the blade's edge, he had his own methods and backing.
The Drought Demon True Fire was the source of Ji Feichen's confidence, and there was a flame burning in the Ancestral Aperture between his eyebrows. He didn't need to actually lure Immortal Drought Demon over. As long as he used her name, Ji Feichen could temporarily use it to negotiate with Master Blackpool.
Master Blackpool was currently in an awkward situation. Even if he had the support of the sect master's faction, joining the sect master's faction and becoming a puppet to fight against his teacher was definitely not what he wanted. The Drought Demon was very important to him.
Master Blackflow was also in an awkward situation. If Master Blackpool really advanced to the Ground Fairies … As long as he gave in to the old temple master and took the initiative to throw Blackpool and the others out, respectfully handing over the Celestial Immortal Dao Fruit to the old temple master, wouldn't the position of temple master be easy to grasp?
As for the old temple master, he could let his disciples mess around. In any case, he would eventually escape to the Nine Underworlds and become a supreme demon god. Who cared who would be in charge of Kan Nether Hall then?
Countless thoughts raced through Ji Feichen's mind, and he had already thought of several solutions. But the most advantageous thing for him was naturally the defeat of the demons, allowing him to smoothly escape from the demonic sects.
