"The demonic path never gives up. They must have been prepared for this. Only then can they rise again and again."
"Therefore, the location shown on this map could be the gathering place of the demonic path. It could be the capital for them to rise again, or it could be the secret location left behind by the creator of the demonic path."
"No matter which possibility it is, it is worth my time to find out."
Ling Xian mumbled to himself and made up his mind.
If it was the first possibility, then he would just turn around and leave. After all, with his capabilities today, he could protect himself. If it was the second possibility, then he would have profited.
Whether it was the capital for him to rise again or the secret location left behind by the sky demons, to him, they were all extremely tempting.
"I have to figure out the contents of the first three pages of the diary. Only then will I be able to find out the origin and goal of the sky demons."
Ling Xian's gaze was deep as he stared at the core area shown on the map, "I hope I will gain something from this trip …"
As his voice trailed off, a pair of wings materialized and carried him across the sky.
...
To the people of the Xuan Wu Continent, the demonic path was an enemy that they would not rest until one of them died.
This was a concept that was deeply rooted. At least in most people's hearts, people from the demonic path deserved to die and must die.
Therefore, the people of the world did everything they could to suppress the demonic path. After the demonic path was destroyed, they dug three feet into the ground and cleaned out the remaining members of the demonic path.
Right now, on Mount Yu Ping, a scene of people chasing after the demonic path was playing out.
The one flying at the front was a lady in red. Her face was delicate and her charm was natural. Her looks were worthy of the word "stunning". However, the bloodstains on her delicate body had undoubtedly ruined the beauty of her body.
Behind her, three middle-aged men were chasing closely. They were all cultivators at the peak of the sixth level.
Their terrifying Qi was shocking and made all the beasts in the mountain kneel on the ground and shiver.
"You are the saintess of the demonic path after all. Even under the alliance of us three brothers, you still managed to carve out a bloody path. You sure are impressive."
"Sadly, you are already heavily injured and cannot escape."
"If you surrender, I can guarantee that you will not be humiliated and that you will die peacefully."
The three brothers chimed in and tried to confuse her with words.
Sadly, the lady in red was unmoved.
She knew how fatally attractive her appearance was to men. If she fell into the hands of these people, she would definitely suffer great humiliation. Even if they kept their word, wouldn't she still have to die? How could he just surrender without putting up a fight?
"Looks like you won't give up until you reach the Yellow River."
"Big Brother, stop talking nonsense with her. How long can she last in her current state?"
"At most, it will only take a few moments. At that time, she won't be able to run even if she wants to!"
The three of them sneered, causing the pretty face of the Demon Sect's Saintess to turn pale and despair rose in her heart.
The reason why she was able to maintain her lead was not because she was stronger than the three brothers, but because she used the forbidden technique of the Devil Sect.
Although this method could greatly increase her speed, the price she had to pay was not small. In her current state, she would not be able to hold on for long.
If she couldn't hold on any longer, what awaited her was not only death, but also great humiliation.
Therefore, the Demon Sect's Saintess was in despair and decided to end things by killing herself.
However, at this moment, a pair of wings suddenly appeared in her line of sight.
Under the snowy wings was a handsome young man with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes. His face was like jade, and he was as elegant as a banished immortal.
This person was Ling Xian.
Looking at the woman in red and the three men, he pondered for a moment and realized what was going on.
Thus, he slightly moved to the side to let them pass.
This stunned the Demon Clan's Saintess. Then, her beautiful eyes, which had just lit up, dimmed.
Originally, she wanted to ask for help, but before she could, Ling Xian had already moved to the side. This meant he didn't want to be a busybody.
Therefore, the saintess didn't say anything and brushed past Ling Xian.
If nothing out of the ordinary happens, then everything will end like this. Ling Xian won't make a move and he won't even remember what happened today.
However, in this world, there are too many coincidences and too many accidents.
One of the three men said something that forced Ling Xian to stop in his tracks.
"Well done, fellow Daoist. You can help anyone but her, the Demon Sect's saintess."
Hearing this, Ling Xian frowned and stopped his steps.
Just by hearing her name, one could tell that this woman's position was highly respected. At the very least, she was higher than the protector. Based on this, one could infer that this woman knew more secrets than the protector.
Though there might not be what Ling Xian wanted, since he encountered her, he couldn't miss it.
He flapped his Winged Blitz and after a few breaths, he appeared before the woman.
This shocked the woman. At the same time, she was confused.
The three brothers were the same. They couldn't understand why Ling Xian would return.
"I have some business to attend to. I will deal with your grudge later."
Ling Xian spoke softly and shifted his gaze towards the woman in red. However, just as he was about to ask, the three brothers spoke first.
"Who are you? Why should we listen to you? "
"You dare to order us around? You must be tired of living."
"It's been a long time since someone dared to talk to us like this. Do you know why? Because those who dared to talk to us like this are all dead. "
The three brothers coldly snickered, one more arrogant than the other.
In the next second, however, their cold snickers turned into fear and their arrogance turned into regret.
Because Ling Xian softly waved his hand, they couldn't move. It was as if they were petrified. Their mouths couldn't speak and their bodies couldn't move.
This shocked the three brothers. If it weren't for the fact that they couldn't move, they would be shaking right now.
The saintess was also in awe. She widened her beautiful eyes as if she was looking at a monster.
The three brothers were not weaklings. Every single one of them was at the peak of the sixth level. Yet Ling Xian merely waved his hand and the three of them froze. How terrifying was this?
At the very least, he was at the seventh level!
Therefore, as much as the saintess was shocked, she also felt hope.
"I don't want to waste time. I will ask you a question and you must answer truthfully."
Ling Xian glared at the woman, "Remember, you must answer truthfully. If you lie, then don't blame me for being ruthless."
"Senior, do not worry. I will not lie." The woman lowered her head. Even if someone lent her 100 guts, she wouldn't dare to lie.
Ling Xian had proven his capabilities. At the very least, he was at the seventh level. The anger of a seventh leveled cultivator was not something she could handle.
"Wait a second."
The space between Ling Xian's brows shone. He flipped open the diary with his Qi and memorized the first word on the first page. Then, using his hand as a pen, he drew a few lines in midair.
Though he didn't recognize the language of the sky demons, he could copy it.
Therefore, Ling Xian restored the first word of the diary and asked, "Do you recognize this word?"
"I do. This is the language exclusive to the demonic house. Of course I recognize it."
The woman revealed her surprise. This language was a top secret of the demonic house and only a few people knew about it. Therefore, she thought Ling Xian was a Great Elder of the demonic house and was using this to verify her identity.
"Oh?"
Ling Xian was ecstatic. He originally wanted to give it a try. After all, it was just a word. It didn't matter if she didn't recognize it or not.
He didn't think the woman would recognize it.
This created a giant wave in his heart. However, on the surface, he remained calm and said, "Then tell me, what does this word mean?"
