Chapter 482 The Mysterious Yin Demon Nest: A Treasure Trove of Talents (Part 1)

The demon struggled violently in Li Shouchang's hands, its six limbs, which resembled insect legs, flailing wildly. A flash of cold light appeared in Li Shouchang's palm, completely freezing the demon.

This senior brother Li Shouchang seems to be following the path of the Cold Ice School, but I don't know exactly what it is.

Su Che looked at the chilling aura flowing from Li Shouchang's hand. The tangible yet intangible Yin Demon was actually sealed by such a chilling aura, which was truly beyond Su Che's expectations.

According to Su Che's understanding, freezing and ice are forces that directly affect the material level, specifically temperature, the movement of matter, and so on. However, Yin Demons should not have any material form, but rather be a kind of thought...

This is what is meant by demonic thoughts. I saw Yu Qiang use demonic techniques when I fought Yu Chen before. Although the demonic fire he released looked like flames, it was essentially just a transformation of some kind of demonic thought.

Su Che had also seen in the information about the Imperial Guard that, regardless of whether it was the Northern or Southern Demonic Sect, their fundamental skills lay in the two words "Demonic Consciousness," and they were particularly proficient in dealing with the mind.

Li Shouchang could easily seal the Yin Demon completely, and his first reaction to any possible probing by the Demonic Sect was to meet it head-on and retaliate.

The disciples of Huang Tiandao indeed possessed an extraordinary aura.

While Li Shouchang seemed to be navigating the Dongyuan Divine Ship aimlessly, Su Che could sense that his senior brother Li was constantly making minor adjustments and corrections to the ship's direction, and that the starship was steadily approaching a certain direction.

"I remember that when Junior Brother Su was in the lower realm, he was in the Central Plains. He probably had very little contact with the demonic sects, right?"

"I've met a few, but there aren't many in the end."

The most formidable member of the demonic sect that Su Che had ever seen was Old Lion, but even he couldn't be considered a pure disciple of the demonic sect. As for others, he had seen a variety of them, such as Yu Qiang, but he had never had any direct contact with them.

"The Demonic Sect uses the desires and passions of the human heart as a means to seize the foundations of others for their own advancement. They harm others for their own benefit and are the most despicable parasites in the cultivation world." Li Shouchang said slowly, gazing at a certain spot in the void, "If Junior Brother Su encounters members of the Demonic Sect, remember not to hold back and assume they are also cultivators. These people will associate with you not for anything else, but only to see you as fodder for their own advancement."

As Li Shouchang spoke, he looked into the void before him. He let out a soft whistle, as if using some kind of supernatural power, and a bright light suddenly flashed in the boundless, deep void before him.

In the blink of an eye, countless Daoist scriptures seemed to flash across the void. These words, imbued with the true meaning of the Great Dao, were like tiny candle flames illuminating the demonic shadows lurking in the deep darkness.

All sorts of strange and twisted shadows curled up in the deep and cold outer void, and at this moment all of them revealed their forms.

The bizarre and distorted shapes were beyond description, yet they all exuded a pure evil, like withered human skin, shifting shadows in the void; a demon mother carrying countless six-legged ghost infants, her belly as large as a small mountain, still giving birth; a lustful being whose body resembled a beautiful young girl, but whose body was completely naked, whose face was devoid of features, and who dragged a long, thin tail...

All sorts of demonic creatures that Su Che had only seen in ancient books were dancing gracefully in this void, as if they were attending some kind of grand event, which made Su Che feel a chill down his spine at first glance.

Legend has it that the Demonic Sect has a method of raising Yin Demons. These Yin Demons are different from the extraterrestrial demons and are almost puppets of the Demonic Sect members. They are roughly classified into fifty categories, hence the name Fifty Yin Demons. These Fifty Yin Demons specifically target the various weaknesses in the mind of cultivators, waiting for the right opportunity to strike, and spreading their evil influence silently.

I never expected to see so many demons in this outer void. I wonder which demonic sect master has placed this here.

If it were just the sheer number of Yin Demons that surprised Su Che, what truly astonished the Third Young Master Su was that, amidst the heavy protection of these Yin Demons, a heart-like object vaguely appeared ahead. Its rise and fall, like the beating of a drum, directly transmitted into Su Che's soul.

With each rise and fall of his heart, figures of malevolent spirits appeared around him.

"The Profound Yin Demon Nest, I never thought I could see such a thing in this outer void. Those demon cubs really went to great lengths to move this thing here."

Li Shouchang looked at the pitch-black heart rooted deep in the void before him, a hint of disgust flashing in his eyes.

The Xuan Yin Demon Nest is a maternal body of Yin Demons specially built by the demonic cultivators in imitation of the Heavenly Demon Clan. It can absorb the six desires of the human heart as nourishment and nurture fifty kinds of Yin Demons from it. Behind each Xuan Yin Demon Nest is a nearly endless army of Yin Demons.

Such things are extremely taboo within the realm, rarely seen even in the heartland of demonic sects like the Northern and Southern Wilderness. Their appearance would inevitably attract attacks from Xuanmen cultivators. It's unbelievable that these demonic offspring would actually move such a thing into the void. "The Xuan Yin Demon Nest feeds on human desires and intentionally cultivates countless Yin demons. It must not be far from human habitation. Those demonic offspring are either planted near their own sects or ambushed around rival sects. This place, isolated in the outer realms, suggests they have cultivated some kind of variant."

The dark heart of the Xuan Yin Demon Nest pulsated incessantly. With each pulsation, countless Yin Demons would spew out from the vein-like orifices on its body. These Yin Demons shimmered in the void, like a dark net, slowly surging outwards like waves.

Is someone in charge?

Su Che could sense that the direction of the surging waves was clearly the Dongyuan Divine Ship that he and Li Shouchang were riding.

It's unclear whether this is the Xuan Yin Demon Nest's self-defense instinct or if it's orchestrated by a powerful figure behind the scenes.

"Within ten steps, there must be fragrant grass. In the Xuan Yin Demon Realm, demons and ghosts lurk." Li Shouchang smiled sarcastically: "How could the Xuan Yin Demon Nest be hidden here unattended?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the endless Yin demons surged forth like a torrent, heading back towards the Divine Ship of the Cave Abyss.

Li Shouchang effortlessly flicked his right index finger forward, releasing a beam of cold light that instantly sealed off the group of Yin Demons, blocking their path in front of the Cave Abyss Divine Ship.

It was as if there was an invisible barrier in front of them, preventing the demon from taking another step forward.

A sinister demonic thought manifested in the void, transmitting its voice directly over.

The voice was clear and melodious, yet it seemed to stir up the most beautiful thoughts in people's hearts.

"What powerful Xuanbing evil energy! It must be Senior Brother Li Shouchang of Huangtiandao in person. I have long heard of Senior Brother's great name of 'Freezing Three Thousand,' and seeing it today, I can confirm that his great reputation is well-deserved."

There is no medium in the void sufficient for sound to travel. The other party is simply releasing her divine sense through some kind of method, firstly to transmit a message, and secondly to conceal countless demonic techniques. If one cannot guard one's mind, one may be corrupted by her demonic influence.

Li Shouchang chuckled softly, and a blue ancient bell appeared in the void above his head, with the sun, moon, stars, and constellations arranged on it.

This green bell was clearly a divine power he had created with his magic. As soon as the bell appeared, Su Che felt a sense of clarity in his mind.

Senior Brother Li was protecting him.

"He transforms freely, staining all living beings with blood. This Xuan Yuan transforms into the void, shaking the demonic sound of hell. It is truly exhilarating. You have heard of it for a long time, Xue Qingluo."

As Li Shouchang spoke, a young man in red robes suddenly appeared above the dark demonic heart.

She had pale skin, thick black hair like clouds, and a gold hairpin in her hair. She held a beautiful and alluring woman in each of her arms. She wore only a red veil, and various magical patterns shimmered on her body.

"For someone as insignificant as myself to be remembered by Senior Brother Li, I truly deserve a toast."

As she spoke, the alluring beauty beside her presented a brass wine cup, which the young man in red drank in one gulp, spilling half of the blood-red wine onto his chest.

"I will never forget the name of the newly rising Red Prince of the Northern Demonic Sect."

Li Shouchang's face was ashen.

Unexpectedly, it was Serum Luo who was here.
