"This is the entrance to the Xuan Yin Sect. There is a defensive Seal at the entrance, but it definitely can't stop you."
Deep within a cliff in Golden Star Canyon, the Blood God Child pointed to a cave entrance about three meters in diameter and introduced it to Li Chuan with a fawning expression.
"Back when Whitebrow True Person destroyed the Xuan Yin Sect's old ancestor, Yin Jiutian took the remaining disciples and found this place deep underground that could gather spiritual energy as their new sect headquarters.
The Seal at the entrance was personally set by him, and it can at most only block cultivators below the mid-stage Nascent Soul."
"Multiple Shadow Clone Technique!"
Li Chuan nodded upon hearing this, activated Immortal Mode, and instantly split into two thousand Shadow Clones.
"Immortal Art Super Lightning Release Pseudo-Dark."
The two thousand Shadow Clones simultaneously unleashed purple lightning spears, blasting towards the cave entrance.
With a loud bang, the defensive Seal at the entrance was torn apart like paper, and the two-meter diameter cave entrance directly expanded to a hundred meters.
To catch the opponent off guard, after blasting away the Seal, Li Chuan took the two thousand clones and rushed into the cave entrance at the fastest speed, charging towards the Xuan Yin Sect hidden within the cave.
"Holy sh*t, that's f*cking disgusting!"
After passing through a tunnel of about a hundred meters, the area ahead suddenly opened up, but the scene before him truly made Li Chuan twitch his mouth.
It turned out that at the end of this tunnel was a huge space excavated by Yin Jiutian and other Xuan Yin Sect cultivators using magic treasures. Besides some luxurious palaces that had been built, there were only pools.
However, these pools were not filled with water, but with people. These people were like maggots in a cesspool, wriggling naked, regardless of gender or age.
Don't think this was a pleasant sight; in fact, if you looked closely, many details in the pools were extremely nauseating, which is why Li Chuan felt it was disgusting.
"Who dares to trespass into my Xuan Yin Sect!"
Just then, within the central main hall, two Golden Core stage Elders of the Profound Yin Sect sensed that the sect's Seal had been destroyed, and they flew out with their respective magic treasures, letting out a sharp roar.
However, upon seeing the sky full of Li Chuans, they were momentarily stunned.
"Looks disgusting, kill them all!"
At this moment, Li Chuan was too lazy to waste words. He directly ordered all Shadow Clones to release Ninjutsu and slaughter all the Xuan Yin Sect members.
The Lightning Release that could kill the mid-stage Nascent Soul Blood God Child was something these demonic cultivators, whose highest level was only early-stage Golden Core, could resist. In less than a quarter of an hour, all the Xuan Yin Sect cultivators, including the last two Elders, were turned into charcoal.
Only a dozen or so decent Xuan Yin Sect magic treasures were collected by Li Chuan into his bag afterwards.
"Which building are their cultivation techniques and secret manuals hidden in?"
Dismissing the Shadow Clones, Li Chuan asked the Blood God Child again.
Under the Blood God Child's guidance, he quickly found the pavilion where the Xuan Yin Sect stored their secret manuals, swept all the manuals into his small cloth bag, and then sealed the Blood God Child back into the scroll.
"Alright, it's time to go to Mount Emei!"
Having finished all this, he activated the Earth Release Ninjutsu to bury the entire Xuan Yin Sect, took out a teleportation scroll, and instantly returned to that human town.
Leaving the town using Apparition, he leisurely flew towards Mount Emei, controlling the Crimson Spirit Fire Pearl magic treasure.
"Qingfeng, you're back. Have you finished handling the matters in the sect?"
Shangguan Qian, who was sitting in the octagonal pavilion at the highest point of Liuyun Peak, saw Li Chuan descend controlling the Crimson Spirit Fire Pearl and immediately transformed into a sword light, flying over.
Seeing Shangguan Qian appear, Li Chuan put away the Crimson Spirit Fire Pearl and smiled, saying:
"Not yet, there was a slight unexpected issue, so I came back early. By the way, Senior Sister, aren't you cultivating today?"
Two years ago, each of the Yun Zhong Seven received a bottle of Spirit Enhancement Pill from the Lotus Fairy, so they basically spent most of their time in seclusion absorbing the medicinal power of the pills, except for the monthly Mount Emei disciple sword duels, hoping to reach Nascent Soul as soon as possible.
Today wasn't a sword duel day, so Shangguan Qian should have been in seclusion cultivating.
"Oh, um... I had some things to deal with today, so..."
Shangguan Qian's face turned slightly red, and she casually made up an excuse to get by.
After Li Chuan left Mount Emei, she had been unable to settle down and cultivate, often sitting on the peak waiting for Li Chuan's return, but such a thing naturally couldn't be spoken aloud.
"That's perfect then. Please trouble Senior Sister to inform someone for me. I have something important to see Whitebrow True Person about. It concerns the Youquan Blood Demon from the Blood Demon Palace and the safety of Mount Emei, it's very urgent!"
Li Chuan didn't seem to mind, but said with a solemn expression.
The mention of Mount Emei's safety changed Shangguan Qian's expression. She no longer cared about her inner thoughts and directly transformed into a sword light, flying towards the main peak.
"Junior Brother, wait here for a moment. I'll go find Master now."
About a quarter of an hour later, Shangguan Qian flew back again, but this time she was accompanied by Mount Emei's Master Brother, Danchenzi.
"Qingfeng, Master wants to see you. I'll take you there!"
"Thank you, Senior Brother Danchenzi."
Li Chuan smiled and nodded.
Danchenzi grabbed Li Chuan's shoulder, and his Flying Knife Wings spread out behind him. In the blink of an eye, they had flown from Liuyun Peak to the main hall of the main peak.
"Li Qingfeng of Xiao Zhu Mountain, greetings, True Person!"
Looking at Whitebrow True Person who was floating in the air cross-legged in front of him, Li Chuan quickly performed a Daoist bow.
In this World, there are spells that allow one to float and fly without using magic treasures, but only cultivators at the Golden Core stage or higher can learn them, and the speed is much slower than flying with magic treasures.
Li Chuan had just formed his Golden Core not long ago and hadn't had time to learn them yet.
"No need for formalities. You said you have something to say about the Youquan Blood Demon and the safety of Mount Emei. What exactly is it?"
Whitebrow True Person had a kind face and benevolent eyes, not looking down on Li Chuan just because he was only in the Golden Core stage, nor putting on the airs of the sect leader of the Righteous Path's foremost sect.
Li Chuan respectfully replied:
"I learned from the Blood God Child that the Youquan Blood Demon plans to attack Mount Emei in three months, and then destroy the entire Righteous Path in one fell swoop."
"What, is this true?"
Whitebrow True Person's face suddenly became more serious.
Li Chuan then roughly recounted the events after he returned, how he encountered the Blood God Child and the Xuan Yin Sect leader who had joined forces to ambush him. He even took out Yin Jiutian's Great Sumeru Profound Yin Cauldron as proof.
However, he concealed the fact that he had ultimately kept the Blood God Child's Nascent Soul and had annihilated the entire Xuan Yin Sect.
Actually, it wasn't exactly concealment, but rather simplification by not mentioning it.
The key point was that Whitebrow True Person didn't care about those details. What he cared about was that since Youquan Blood Demon dared to attack Mount Emei in three months, he must have some hidden trump card that he didn't know about.
Whitebrow was very clear in his heart that if Nether Spring didn't have a trump card, he would never dare to attack Mount Emei, because his strength was not a match for him.
"Li Qingfeng, thank you for coming to notify Mount Emei. This news is very important to Mount Emei."
Looking at Li Qingfeng below, Whitebrow's face was full of admiration.
Fighting a Nascent Soul at Foundation Establishment, and now, having just entered the Golden Core stage, he had already killed two infamous mid-stage Nascent Soul old demons. The talent Li Qingfeng displayed was even better than his own when he was young.
He was very happy that such a figure had appeared in the Righteous Path, even if he wasn't a Mount Emei disciple.
Moreover, at this critical juncture of the decisive battle between the righteous and the evil, the emergence of every such expert was an extremely good thing for the Righteous Path.
