Chapter 341: Shen Yi, Emperor of the Thousand Demon Cave
Chapter 341: Shen Yi, Emperor of the Thousand Demon Cave
No wonder it was a transformation technique retrieved from a cave.
It took Shen Yi nearly two hundred years to perfect his cultivation.
Thinking of what was written on the elixir formula, "Those who have lived past a hundred years but failed to achieve spirit transformation will need the aid of an elixir..." Shen Yi felt a strange sourness in his heart.
However, it was just a piece of tattered paper, and it was normal for it to exaggerate a little. He shouldn't take it too seriously.
Coincidentally, the residual soul of the Golden-Eyed Lion Emperor had also been refined and extracted.
[Yao Huang (Residual Soul): Golden-Eyed Lion Emperor]
Shen Yi waited for it to regain consciousness.
Then, mimicking its appearance, his figure gradually began to transform.
In almost an instant, an eight-zhao tall and majestic lion demon stood in its place, its body, which was originally transformed by the Swallowing Heaven Demon Infant, even exuding a demonic aura.
"Golden-colored eyes."
Shen Yi unleashed the Golden Eagle Divine Ability and manipulated his qi using his Gold Thunder White Jade spiritual root, covering his eyes with a layer of golden light.
He glanced to the side.
Golden light burst from his eyes, shattering a piece of green stone.
Setting aside its power, it at least looked similar.
Finally, he looked at the Golden-Eyed Lion Emperor once more and began adjusting the details of his body, striving to make every hair identical.
Shen Yi closed his eyes.
Numerous terrifying gashes slowly appeared on his body.
His demeanor became weary and haggard.
He lost some of the Yao Huang's imperial dignity, but gained a bit more of a desperate, fighting viciousness.
"From now on, if anyone talks to me, you will inform me first, as per your usual habit."
After making all the necessary preparations, Shen Yi gave it an order.
"Yes!"
The Golden-Eyed Lion Emperor finally came to his senses and bowed deeply.
Shen Yi retracted the golden pearl and his Yin Shen back into his qi sea. Only then, accompanied by the two demon souls, did he boldly and openly rush towards the Thousand Demon Cave.
From this moment on, he was the Emperor of the Thousand Demon Cave.
...
In front of the first wooden house on Wutong Mountain.
Jiang Qiuluan stood quietly at the doorway, with a snake egg the color of red jade by her side.
She patiently waited.
Even after twelve days and nights, her posture remained straight.
Several figures gradually appeared in the sky, quietly observing the scene below.
"Nie Shi, you brought this person back. Why don't you say something on her behalf?"
Tong Xinquan looked at the person beside her with a smile that was not quite a smile.
Nie Jun, clad in a wide blue robe, stepped on the Xuan Jian and said coldly, "I just want to know when this damned woman will let me out. I want to go to the Eight Directions Food Pavilion to eat."
As Nie Shi looked over, Qingfeng Zhenren quickly popped a dried fruit into his mouth and, in an almost imperceptible movement, stored it in his storage bag.
He, too, had been confined.
This was the only snack left, so he shouldn't even think about it.
"What morals!"
Nie Jun scoffed and turned away, "You go get me a meal."
Tang Yuan, who had been suddenly addressed, hesitated for a moment before replying with a bitter face, "Senior Nie, I've been grounded too."
He couldn't understand why. Xuan Jian Zhenren had killed the Blood Transformation Demon Emperor, and Qingfeng Shizu hadn't stopped him, so it was reasonable for him to be punished. But what did he have to do with it?
He wasn't even considered a disciple of Wutong Mountain.
"All of you, scram!"
Finally, a cold voice emerged from the wooden house.
The faces of the remaining few stagnated, and they scattered one by one, leaving only Nie Jun, who coldly stared at the wooden house, his feet itching to draw the Xuan Jian.
The next moment, a charming figure pushed open the door and walked out.
She casually took out a token, "Master, Nie Jun wants to rebel."
"Pfft, a woman."
Nie Jun took a deep breath and, in anger, turned his sleeves and strode towards another wooden house.
"What? My master is also a woman. Are you dissatisfied?"
Lingxi Zhenren slowly retrieved the token and held it in her palm.
As she looked at the young woman before her, her expression suddenly turned cold.
She already knew about what had happened in the Thousand Demon Cave.
"Since you're from Da Qian and have strong protectors, why did you come here?"
Jiang Qiuluan slowly raised her head and looked at the token in the senior's hand. As she captured the flickering spiritual light on its surface, she replied, "...I want to join Wutong Mountain."
In an instant,
A Xuan Jian appeared in her palm and silently pierced the ground.
Jiang Qiuluan knelt on one knee and bowed towards the token, "Junior Jiang Qiuluan has come to return the cultivation technique."
"..."
Lingxi Zhenren was stunned for a moment.
Then, anger rose in her eyes, "How dare you!"
She waved her hand abruptly, and a powerful spiritual pressure washed over the area in front of her.
At the same time,
Nie Jun, who had just left, returned in the blink of an eye.
He did not try to stop her.
He just stared at the Xuan Jian on the ground with icy eyes.
As the black-robed girl was about to be swept away by the spiritual pressure, even her skin began to shatter.
In the end, Qingfeng Zhenren sighed and summoned a gentle breeze with a wave of his hand, wrapping around Jiang Qiuluan as she fell.
Unexpectedly, as soon as this woman stabilized her body,
She still maintained her previous posture, but now there was an additional scroll of cultivation technique in her hand.
"You really don't value your life."
Qingfeng Zhenren rubbed the back of his head hard. It was common knowledge that only the senior disciple had the privilege to communicate with the master through the token.
Jiang Qiuluan had just committed a serious taboo.
"Heartless and ruthless, so ambitious, what an interesting..."
Lingxi Zhenren took another step forward.
Her words abruptly stopped.
This was because a slightly weary voice came from the token, "What technique are you returning?"
"The Shenxiao Zhenlei Sword Technique."
Jiang Qiuluan forced down the blood in her throat, trying to make her voice steadier.
She needed an opportunity to gain the qualifications to speak with the old ancestor of Wutong Mountain.
The Shenxiao Zhenlei Sword Technique might be her only chance to spark the other party's interest.
This was the opportunity given to her by Shen Yi.
"What reward do you desire?" The voice from the token asked again.
"To join Wutong Mountain."
Jiang Qiuluan's eyes, now reddened from the blood, stared intently at the token.
"Your ambition is too great." The token remained silent for a while.
With this reply, Lingxi Zhenren finally let out a cold laugh.
The few disciples who had rushed over upon hearing the news also frowned.
Who in the world wouldn't want to join Wutong Mountain, but couldn't she be a little more discreet about it?
However, Jiang Qiuluan remained unmoved and slowly got up, "It's not enough."
She had previously promised Shen Yi that she would never waste these opportunities.
And now, what she wanted to do was to use these opportunities to gain the greatest benefit.
"Oh? Let's hear it." The token slowly rose into the air.
"To learn the wondrous techniques of Wutong Mountain and become the sharpest sword in the world." Jiang Qiuluan slowly stood up.
"We're in trouble. She's aiming for you now." Qingfeng Zhenren looked at Nie Jun.
Nie Jun did not speak, only staring silently at the token.
As expected, a faint laughter came from within, "I also wield a sword."
Everyone thought that they would see fear on the black-robed girl's face.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Qiuluan just stood there quietly, her eyes still firm.
After a moment, even Lingxi Zhenren's eyes narrowed slightly. How arrogant must one be to dare to think of stepping on her master?
"An ignorant frog, stupid and noisy." The token swayed slightly and returned to Lingxi Zhenren's palm.
Just as the senior disciple was about to look at Jiang Qiuluan with a cold gaze again,
The token's spiritual light flickered once more, "Bring this crazy girl to see me. I'm very interested in what gave her the courage to look down on everyone."
"..."
Upon hearing this, even Nie Jun's eyes twitched, not to mention the others.
Finally, Jiang Qiuluan lowered her eyes.
She wasn't crazy, she had just seen the most majestic mountain.
It was a presence that could make even those in front of her feel ashamed.
She wasn't being arrogant.
Only by surpassing these people would she have the chance to approach that mountain.
This wasn't ambition, it was simply the cruel reality.
