Above the clouds, the red-eyed Ye Fan urged the Auspicious Clouds beneath his feet, rushing straight in the direction of the capital.
The sun had already set in the west, and the sky was gradually darkening. Within Ye Kong, there were a few faint stars that constantly flickered.
At this time, it was the time for a flock of birds to return to their nests. There were quite a few birds that he didn't know the names of flying flocks under his Auspicious Clouds, letting out bursts of bird cries.
Looking at the flocks of birds flying by under his feet, listening to the cheerful cries of the birds returning to their nests, Ye Fan felt a trace of desolation and loneliness on the Auspicious Clouds.
He suddenly felt that he was inferior to these flocks of birds.
The flocks of birds accompanied their loved ones, flying side by side, searching for food at sunrise and returning to their nests at sunset. It was simple and happy.
But what about him? Every step he took was difficult, and every step he took was filled with killing intent. Almost no one who followed him had a good ending!
He and his beloved wife had closed their doors, not caring about the affairs of the world. In the end, his wife had gone crazy and her soul was incomplete. In order to give Xiao Zhao a good future, he had recommended her to enter the Pear Blossom Palace, hoping that she would return to the righteous path in the future. In the end, she had lost her inner core and fallen into the body of a fox. In order to not let Matsumoto Takeyoshi find out that Akatsuki was helping him, he had protected Akatsuki at every turn, contending with Matsumoto Takeyoshi in secret. In the end, Akatsuki had sacrificed her own blood for him and passed away …
He had done his best, but in the end, he had received a merciless blow!
Heaven and Earth were heartless, treating all living things like straw dogs!
Since his efforts had not received the blessings of Heaven, then what was the point of him holding onto this laughable morality!
Thinking of this, Ye Fan's eyes shone with a trace of red light.
Perhaps he still didn't know that more than half of his spiritual altar had been invaded by the evil aura …
After the time it took for a stick of incense to burn, Ye Fan's Auspicious Clouds arrived above a green mountain.
This was the place Li Si had told him to stay, Mount Jinping.
Looking at this mountain range, the cliffs were cut into peaks, the dense forests and waterfalls could be vaguely seen. It was indeed a good place for cultivation.
Ye Fan lowered the height of the Auspicious Clouds under his feet and slowly walked between the mountains. At the same time, he used his five senses to search for Li Si's specific location.
This mountain was already deserted, and in addition to the steep peaks, there were not many people at all.
Finding Li Si was a piece of cake.
With his sharp five senses, Ye Fan quickly sensed Li Si's turbid spiritual aura.
He pushed the Auspicious Clouds under his feet and flew directly in the direction of the aura.
At this moment, Li Si was sitting cross-legged in the cave. Suddenly, he heard the cries of the red-crowned crane that was eating wild fruits beside him!
Hearing this cry, Li Si, who was meditating, immediately opened his eyes.
After calculating with his fingers, Li Si's face lit up with joy. He immediately stood up and walked quickly to the entrance of the cave.
When he arrived at the entrance of the cave, Ye Fan, who was dressed in white, had just landed on the ground with his Auspicious Clouds.
"Li Si greets Mr. Ye!" When Li Si saw Ye Fan, he immediately cupped his hands and bowed to Ye Fan.
"Master Li." Ye Fan returned the greeting.
"Mr. Ye, please come in." Li Si extended his hand toward the entrance of the cave and said.
Ye Fan nodded and stepped into the cave.
Li Si followed closely behind.
This cave was quite spacious. It was more than seven feet deep and more than three feet wide. It was not a problem at all to block out the wind and rain.
There was a bonfire lit in the cave. Next to the bonfire was a thick straw mat. The elegant, snow-white red-crowned crane stood to the side, quietly looking at Ye Fan.
"This place is too shabby. Sorry for the inconvenience." Li Si said as he used his sleeve to brush the straw mat. "Sir, please sit."
"This place is quite nice. It's quiet." Ye Fan said as he looked around and sat on the straw mat.
"Xue 'er, quickly get some wild fruits for Sir," Li Si said to the white crane after sitting down on a green rock opposite Ye Fan.
When the white crane heard Li Si's words, it immediately used its long and thin beak to pick up a branch full of wild fruits. It walked gracefully in front of Ye Fan and gently placed the branch in front of Ye Fan. Then, it lowered its head to bow to Ye Fan and slowly walked away.
"In the deep mountains, only these fruits can serve Sir. Sir, please don't be offended," Li Si said respectfully to Ye Fan.
"You're too kind, Master Li," Ye Fan said calmly.
"Mr. Ye, may I know why you're here in the middle of the night?" Li Si saw that Ye Fan's eyes were red and his face was sad. It seemed like he had just cried, so he went straight to the point and asked.
"This time, I've come to visit you because of one thing." Ye Fan looked at Li Si and spat out two words, "Becoming a demon."
"Bedevilment …" Li Si's expression changed when he heard these two words.
No matter what, he would never have thought that Ye Fan would come here for this matter!
"Master, please give me the mantra for bedevilment," Ye Fan said to Li Si.
"This … this …" Li Si stuttered in shock. "What's going on?"
The last time they met, Ye Fan personally told him that he would never be bedeviled. Now that they had not met for a few days, this young man actually came to ask for the mantra for the Bedevilment!
What kind of upheaval happened in the past few days to make him make such a decision?
"I can't say much about this. Master, you don't have to ask. Just give me the mantra," Ye Fan said.
"Mr. Ye, I told you last time that bedevilment is not a small matter. You have to reconsider …"
"Master," Ye Fan interrupted Li Si. "I've made up my mind. You don't have to persuade me anymore."
Li Si was stunned. He frowned and didn't say anything.
He had already committed a grave mistake and was punished by the heavens, causing his lifespan to decrease drastically. If he were to impart the mantra of the Bedevilment Mantra to Ye Fan, perhaps he would be punished by the heavens and die a violent death!
"Mr. Ye, I can't give you the mantra. Forgive me for not being able to do that." Li Si looked up at Ye Fan and said resolutely.
As he said this, his eyes unnaturally glanced at the stone wall behind Ye Fan.
Ye Fan, with his sharp senses, caught Li Si's gaze!
If he didn't guess wrong, the mantra for the Bedevilment Cultivation Method was in the stone wall behind him!
"I, Li Si, am a sinner. I can't add to my crimes," Li Si said to Ye Fan. "Please forgive me."
"If that's the case, then I can only offend you." As Ye Fan spoke, he instantly activated the cold air within the ice core in his body and threw a palm strike at Li Si from afar!
Whoosh! A three-inch thick white beam of light shot out from Ye Fan's palm and went straight for Li Si!
Crack, crack, bang … Before Li Si could even react, a huge semicircular ice barrier instantly enveloped him!
The ice shield was ten feet wide and crystal clear. Cold smoke came out of it!
The red-crowned crane, which was leisurely eating wild fruits, saw that its master was bound and immediately cried out. It flapped its huge wings and used its long and sharp beak to stab Ye Fan!
At this moment, the white crane was eager to protect its master. Its body rose from the ground at an extremely fast speed!
However, even the thousand-year-old ice snake couldn't do anything to Ye Fan. How could a mere white crane be a match for Ye Fan?
Seeing the red-crowned crane coming for him, Ye Fan gathered spiritual energy in his hand and shook it at the red-crowned crane.
Bam! The white crane was stunned by Ye Fan's spiritual energy and fell heavily to the ground.
"Mr Ye, what are you doing?"
Bam bam bam …
Li Si, who was inside the ice shield, said loudly to Ye Fan as he hit the steel-like ice shell with all his might.
"Taoist, forgive Ye Fan for being rude, but I must get the mantra." Ye Fan said as he turned to look at the stone wall behind him.
"Mr Ye, you can't, you can't!" Li Si immediately understood Ye Fan's intention and shouted loudly!
Ye Fan didn't reply.
He closed his eyes and slowly extended his right hand. He opened his five fingers and began to use his invisible spiritual energy to investigate the stone wall from top to bottom.
It didn't take long before Ye Fan sensed a half-foot square stone wall on the stone wall.
Found it!
Whoosh! Ye Fan suddenly opened his eyes and bent his five fingers into claws!
Bam! There was a loud noise and rocks flew everywhere!
Pa! A bamboo scroll flew out from the stone wall and landed in Ye Fan's hand!
The bamboo scroll was sealed with wax and wrapped in oilcloth. On the oilcloth, there was an ancient seal that said "demon"!
"Mr Ye! You can't do this, you can't do this! " Li Si, who was inside the ice shield, hit the ice shell crazily and shouted loudly, "Once you become a demon, it's too late for regrets!"
"Don't worry, Taoist. I won't regret it." Ye Fan said calmly and slowly walked to the unconscious White Crane. He bent down and used his spiritual energy to heal the White Crane.
Li Si closed his eyes in pain and slowly shook his head.
"My agreement with you won't change. When I get the Nine Cauldrons Mystic Technique in the future, I'll definitely remove the seal and rebuild your brain." After the White Crane slowly opened its eyes, Ye Fan stood up and walked to the ice shield. As he spoke, he hit the crystal clear ice shield with his palm.
Bam … Ice shards scattered everywhere and sparkled.
Amidst the ice shards, Ye Fan used his movement technique. A shadow rushed out of the cave and into the sky!
"Heaven's will, heaven's will." Li Si sat on the ground and sighed to the sky …
After leaving Jade Screen Mountain, Ye Fan pushed the Auspicious Clouds under his feet to the maximum and went straight to his cave abode, Soaring Cloud Cave on Phoenix Cry Mountain!
The next thing he had to do was to enter the Demonic Path!
In order to reach the third level of Xuantian Secret Technique, one had to undergo the Heavenly Tribulation. Proud Moon Heavenly Scripture could only be cultivated once a year. When he reached the third level of Full Moon Scripture, he also had to undergo the Heavenly Tribulation. Now, if he wanted to obtain powerful strength without having to worry about the Heavenly Tribulation, this was the only way!
With the power of the Demonic Path, not only could he break the barrier of the Godly Cauldron, he could also be invincible in a battle between experts!
Yagyu Ryuuke, Yamamoto Seino, Mitsuaki Kimura, Daitengu, these experts' strength was far beyond his imagination. With only the first level of Proud Moon Heavenly Scripture and the second level of Xuantian Secret Technique, he was no match for them!
If he had chosen to enter the Demonic Path earlier, Akatsuki wouldn't have died because of him!
Thinking about the wound on Akatsuki's wrist, Ye Fan painfully closed his eyes …
After half an hour, Ye Fan arrived at the cave abode he hadn't returned to for a long time, Soaring Cloud Cave.
This time, he didn't open the cave door. Instead, he went directly to the Full Moon Pavilion above the cave abode.
At this time, it was already late at night. Ye Kong, the moon was bright and the stars were shining brightly. A cool breeze was blowing in the Full Moon Pavilion.
Ye Fan sat down on a stone bench in the pavilion. He took out a bamboo scroll from his chest and tore off the 'Demonic Path' seal. He removed the wax seal and slowly spread the bamboo scroll on the stone table.
On the bamboo scroll, the ancient script was densely packed. The handwriting was crazy and unrestrained!
At the very front of the text, four wild and unrestrained words entered Ye Fan's eyes!
