Yin Capital, Yuanguang Family.
"This is Senior Hongfang Bai of the Prime Devil Sect from Nine Bright Province's Autumn Moon County."
In the Loyalty Assembly Hall, Yuanguang Yuan introduced the beautiful woman who had just arrived to the family to the elders and council members.
More than ten higher-ups of this branch family were gathered in the hall. Yuanguang Zheng sat not far from her, followed by two middle-aged men with extraordinary bearing. One of the men glanced at Hongfang Bai, and a cold glint flashed across his eyes.
The branch host, Yuanguang Qinshan, sat in the main seat. Her expression was calm as she sized up Hongfang Bai.
"Since you're Yuan 'er's, give her a seat." She was already 508 years old, and had seen all kinds of fights in the family.
She had seen the competition between the two juniors, Yuanguang Yuan and Yuanguang Zheng, and was happy to support them. Such healthy competition was good in the family.
As for the fact that both of them had external help, that was fine too. The support of a family member from the outside world was a sign of their ability.
Yuanguang Yuan's heart settled. Now that she had confirmed Senior Hongfang Bai's identity in front of all the higher-ups, her next move would be much more justifiable.
She looked up at Yuanguang Zheng. His long and narrow phoenix eyes were filled with indifference, calmness, and confidence. The two middle-aged men behind him were both from the Green Water Sect. The one on the right who was sizing up Senior Hongfang Bai was the one who killed Elder Jin last time.
"This time, we are here to discuss the nine refined iron mines and the twelve Mishuang Silver mines in the northwest …"
The branch host, Yuanguang Qinshan, began the official family meeting.
Yuanguang Yuan listened quietly. Behind her, Hongfang Bai was calmly sizing up the Green Water Sect experts.
She had come on Lu Sheng's orders to settle the matter here, with the intention of testing her sword against the heroes of the world.
Now that she was disguised as Yingying, she had never given up hope of defeating Lu Sheng. Even though she knew the chances were slim, as long as she did not give up, there would come a day.
She had heard that the Green Water Sect was strong, but she did not expect them to actually dare to kill the Earth Prime expert sent by the Prime Devil Sect.
"How is it?" Yuanguang Yuan asked secretly.
Hongfang Bai nodded slightly. "I can make a move. Their cultivation bases are not bad, but they are not a threat to me."
Yuanguang Yuan let out a sigh of relief. As long as her side was strong enough, everything would be fine.
She thought for a moment, then said, "Can we only cripple them and not kill them?"
"I'll try." Hongfang Bai lowered her eyelids to prevent the other from seeing the killing intent in her eyes.
At first, the Prime Devil Sect didn't want to completely fall out with them. But now, it was too late to back down.
Perhaps Yuanguang Zheng had considered that in the entire branch family, only Yuanguang Yuan could stand up to him. The rest of the disciples didn't have the support of a Divine Transcendence force. That was why he attacked Yuanguang Yuan first.
Now, after a round of elimination, only a few of them had the qualifications to participate in the final election.
She didn't expect that the Green Water Sect would really take the initiative to attack first. Moreover, they did it completely and mercilessly. "Since the other party is so ruthless, there's no need for them to be polite."
…
Autumn Moon County, Prime Devil Sect.
Pu.
A puff of green smoke slowly exploded beside Lu Sheng, who was standing in the middle of the array with a tired face. However, the joy of success was fleeting in his eyes.
He reached out and pulled on a bell hanging on the side. Ding ding ding ding sounds quickly came from the bell and floated to the outside world.
Not long after, more than ten people entered the Research Temple and began to carefully tidy up the entire hall.
After cleaning, Lu Sheng returned to the center of the array and carefully arranged it. From time to time, specks of platinum Yang Essence would light up in his hands.
This time, he had sent Hongfang Bai. No matter how strong the Green Water Sect was, with Hongfang Bai around, nothing would go wrong. After all, Yingying's body was strange, and she couldn't be killed.
If something more troublesome happened, she would have the chance to return and inform them.
After leaving all the work to Elder Stone, Lu Sheng devoted himself to the research of Unity Formation.
In the blink of an eye, more than a year had passed.
Now, he finally had complete confidence that he could teleport himself into a world with a fixed range.
Although the range was very large, it was better than accidentally entering a place of absolute death.
After a year of preparation, Lu Sheng sent out the notice that he could enter secluded cultivation at any time.
Because of the Divine Weapon he had set up in the Lu Manor to suppress the radiation, the lifespan of all his clansmen had been greatly extended. They were no longer ordinary people.
They could live up to 200 years without a problem. If they succeeded in their cultivation, they could improve even further. Hence, a few years of secluded cultivation would not affect him much.
'The last time I entered the Spiritual Power World, I stayed there for a year. One year in Great Yin is equivalent to several years in the Spiritual Power World. The flow of time here is really different. If I'm going to transmigrate again, I'll have to pay attention to this. '
He carefully adjusted the flow of time. Although he couldn't completely control the choice of world transmigration, he could still choose a world that had a slower flow of time than Great Yin.
This way, he could stay in the Outer World for a few years, and return only for a short time.
'I'll give it a try first. I'm almost done adjusting the array. The setup for returning isn't perfect yet, but that can't be helped. I have to go to the Outer World before I can adjust it according to the situation there. 'After completing the fifth correction, Lu Sheng stood up. He was finally ready to try the array.
Now that his family was stable, and the Prime Devil Sect was keeping things under control, the Human and Devil Worlds were still at war, but both sides were heavily injured because of the Weapon Grandmasters and Devil Emperors. It was said that other than Great Yin, the Devil World's Devil Emperors were fighting another great nation in another region.
More accurately, that great nation invaded the Devil World, forcing the other Devil Emperors to return to their headquarters. Great Yin was also at a stalemate.
The Devil World fought on several fronts, and fought several great nations at the same time. They tried to go all out, but failed. In fact, if not for the fact that the Gate of Flesh and Blood could only accommodate one Devil Emperor, the entire Human World would have been occupied by Devil Emperors.
Now that the situation was stable, Lu Sheng decided to continue improving his strength. Cultivation alone was useless. It was unrealistic to use the Deep Blue Modifier to improve his spirit. This was because the process of becoming a Weapon Grandmaster was a process of combining himself into one. Although Deep Blue was powerful, there was no specific secret to this process. No matter how powerful his Mental Energy was, it could not transform into countless other Lu Sheng's main bodies to help him improve.
Deep Blue relied more on existing information and experience to derive the strongest fruit based on his own strength.
Mental Energy was only an extremely high-level energy. Perhaps it could replace the spirit's Mind Power, but it could not obtain Lu Sheng's memories, brands, and physical body from the other world out of thin air.
However, the Heavenly Devil Path required precisely these.
Lu Sheng tried deriving the Infinity Technique from Deep Blue a few times, but the paths he derived were all very deviated. He could even easily tell that if he followed the path Deep Blue derived forcefully, he would soon reach the ceiling of his limits, and would never be able to reach the peak of a Weapon Grandmaster.
In other words, with his current tier, level, experience, and knowledge, he was far from being able to derive a powerful skill formula on par with the Weapon Grandmaster Path.
Hence, if he wanted to reach the height of a Weapon Grandmaster, he could only follow the prescribed order and walk the path of combining himself into one.
After deciding to transmigrate a second time, Lu Sheng prepared various items that he planned to bring over. Then, he notified the Prime Devil Sect, the Lu Manor, Chen Yunxi, her mother, his parents, and other people close to him.
After spending two days to settle everything, he went into seclusion and entered the Research Temple. He would not meet any guests.
More than ten days later, the guards outside the Prime Devil Sect's Research Temple suddenly felt the entire temple shake. A faint red light shone through the gap in the door. Then, there was no more sound.
…..
A white line rose and fell on the blue sea and blue sky. It brought with it a large amount of foam that remained on the grayish-yellow beach.
Not far from the beach was a series of ferocious black cliffs. In the middle of the black cliffs, there was a cave abode that was neither too big nor too small. It was only a dozen meters wide. A handsome Taoist wearing a pearl feather crown and white robes stood there.
However, at this moment, the Taoist's originally flawless face was filled with ferocity.
"Why?! Why should I, Mu Yun, give the Life Orb that I cultivated for three lives to a so-called Fated Child for no reason?! " He waved his sleeve, and a clap of thunder resounded in the air. The flowers and plants outside the cave abode exploded, turning into dark green powder that scattered in the air.
"Boom!"
He slammed his palm on the cave wall beside him. With a huge tremor, a palm print of unknown depth was left on the cave wall.
The pearl on the Taoist's head kept emitting a rapid white light that flickered between brightness and darkness. It was clear that it was changing according to his emotions.
He was Taoist Mu Yun. He was also the master of the Wood Martial Abode, the largest cave abode on this island that spanned several thousand miles. He was also one of the more famous evil cultivators in the South China Sea.
In his early years, he was injured by the Vital Energy Sect's True Lord in the central plains. He had no choice but to flee overseas. Due to the power of his Mystic Pearl's Seven Brightness Enlightened True Skill, he managed to make a name for himself overseas.
In the blink of an eye, more than 30 years had passed. Initially, he thought that he would die of old age overseas. He no longer had any hopes of attaining the Dao and ascending to the heavens. However, there was still a high chance that he would be able to enjoy his old age in peace.
However, things did not go as he wished. He did not expect that the Vital Energy Sect's True Lord, the person who had injured him, would send someone to his cave abode. The True Lord asked him to gift the Dark Nether Pearl that he had cultivated for three lifetimes to the Fated Child of the Vital Energy Sect, who possessed a thousand years of fortune.
The Fated Child was about to be swept away by the storm along with the ship.
All of this was predestined. It was a show that had been arranged a long time ago. In truth, he was not the only one. Even Immortal Old Man Bei Tong of the North Pole's icy lands had mysteriously vanished without a trace because he was unwilling to cooperate with the Righteous Path's elites. Now, not even his corpse could be found.
Immortal Old Man Bei Tong's cultivation base far surpassed his own. Even such a powerful figure of the Wicked Path suffered a great calamity because of this, and was turned into ashes. One could imagine how powerful the Vital Energy Sect was now. Anyone who wanted to resist them would be like a mantis trying to stop a chariot. They would be seeking their own deaths.
Mu Yun wanted this, but he was unwilling to give up.
The Mystic Pearl was the foundation of his cultivation base. If he gave it to someone else rashly, once the pearl was destroyed or refined, his three lifetimes of cultivation would be for naught.
However, Immortal Old Man Bei Tong's example was right before his eyes. He knew that this was the Vital Energy Sect, which was known as the number one sect among Taoist cultivators, making an example out of him.
Hence, although he was enraged, he could only endure the impending Fated Child!
