Chapter 179: In the Demon Camp, with a Righteous Heart

"drink!"

"what!"

The shadows of the trees were shady in the forest, accompanied by shouts, and hundreds of people were sweating profusely and practicing boxing with great concentration.

The red-robed young man known as the "Martial Arts Coach" walked among them, stepping forward from time to time to correct some people's movements. He was rigorous, serious, and meticulous, and taught the younger generations of the family wholeheartedly without hiding anything.

A group of monks were panting and sweating profusely.

It’s okay for younger people, but it’s not okay for older people. Without any cultivation, how can they withstand such high-intensity training?

You should know that most cultivators do not practice physical training, because when they break through the Jindan stage, there will be special methods to temper the flawless golden body, and the strength of the physical body will naturally increase. Before that, practicing the body is a waste of time, and it is possible to mistakenly train the body in the wrong way and close the door to the Jindan stage in the future.

Therefore, unless there are some special requirements for Buddhist sects or techniques that imitate the demon race, which require physical training to unlock some secrets of the human body, or cast some strange spells as a prerequisite, people will specifically polish their bodies.

Most of the physical training techniques are just minor ones. No matter how well you practice them, can they block the same level of magic weapons? That little bit of defense strength is not even as useful as the protective aura.

Of course, the world is full of wonders, and some people always have special experiences.

For example, Lin Shan.

After he strengthened his spiritual treasure virtual star disk, he went through "star power body tempering" for several months at the East China Sea Demon Sect headquarters, and tempered himself in the Gongsun family's spiritual well secret room for several months. His own strength, physique, spirit, and charm have all improved, and his physical strength is indeed much stronger than that of others.

In addition, he already had a foundation in martial arts, and after experiencing the nourishment of the "nectar of heaven and earth" in the tides of the spiritual veins, his aptitude and understanding were greatly improved. He learned martial arts like a fish in water, and his "Kun Fist" was so powerful!
Even the martial arts instructor who was passing by couldn't help but stop for a long time, nodding and smiling constantly.

"You're very nice. What's your name?"

"Master, I am Lin Shan, the junior."

"What a talent! You are really good at martial arts. I see that you have already mastered it with ease and have almost mastered the essence of boxing. Your comprehension is truly terrifying!"

"Coach Miao, thank you very much. The success of a garden is the result of the efforts of the gardener. Isn't it all thanks to your good teaching that I can achieve this?"

Lin Shan answered in a neither humble nor arrogant manner, while secretly flattering the monk without leaving any trace. The monks next to him all spat inwardly and screamed in their hearts that it was shameless.

Coach Wu was quite pleased to hear this and couldn't help but smile. The more he looked at him, the more he liked him.

However, when he passed by the Black Skeleton Demon Lord, he couldn't help but frown. If Lin Shan was the best trained among this group of people, then this skeleton could be said to be the worst!

Loose and fragile.

"Who taught you to practice like this? Momentum, the most important thing in practicing Kunquan is momentum. Where is your momentum?"

The Black Skeleton Demon King had no choice but to jump up under the guidance of the martial arts instructor, intending to perform the first move "Big Kun Spreads Wings", but when he landed, his center of gravity was unstable.
"There's a roar~"

"Bang bang bang~ Gurgle gurgle gurgle~"

The skeleton was shattered to the ground, leaving only a skull bouncing on the ground.

Coach Wu scolded angrily: "A rotten tree cannot be carved."

After patrolling back and forth twice, he had a clear idea of ​​everyone's progress in martial arts training.

Next, he announced on the spot that Lin Shan would be promoted to the foreman of everyone, which was equivalent to teaching on behalf of the master and instructing everyone in martial arts on behalf of the martial arts coach.

If it were a sect, this would be almost equivalent to the position of the chief, or the eldest senior brother!
Everyone was jealous when they heard this. This kid became the foreman in just a few hours and was superior to everyone else. It was too fast.

The people in the Demonic Path were fine. They were all convinced when they saw the Foundation Establishment cultivators in their camp stand out.

The people on the righteous side looked unhappy and asked Coach Wu to appoint another foreman to be in charge of the two teams.

But Coach Wu was a straightforward man, and he told them seriously that no one except Lin Shan could be the foreman, and if someone with less skills came to teach them, they would be led astray.

When it comes to martial arts training, laying a solid foundation in the early stages is particularly important. A mediocre teacher will mislead students, so this matter cannot be taken lightly.

Now the righteous monks were speechless and could only hope that Lin Shan, the evil monk, would not make things difficult for them. At the same time, they prayed in their hearts that the elders from the righteous sects would come to rescue them quickly so that they could escape from the evil clutches as soon as possible.

Perhaps their sincere prayers worked.

After a while, a group of righteous monks really flew over from the horizon. After passing by this place, they saw hundreds of people whose cultivation was sealed and who were practicing boxing in the woods. They all showed expressions of disbelief.

The leading Jindan stage immortal almost popped his eyes out!

If I'm not mistaken, the red-robed young man below is the true disciple of Zixiao Sect and one of the two Nascent Soul seeds, Lei Yinzi?
What is he doing?

Mixing a bunch of righteous monks and evil monks together and teaching them how to practice boxing?

The red-robed young man "Martial Coach" ignored them and just focused on instructing the youngsters. He seemed to have no interest in the righteous monks passing by.

But instead of leaving, these people in the sky came over.

The Jindan Zhenren was a portly old man. He narrowed his eyes and thought for a moment, intending to go up and make friends with this Yuanying Seed. At the same time, he was a little curious about what he was doing.

"Fellow Daoist Lei Yinzi, I am Pei Wei, the outer sect elder of the Beast Taming Valley. I met you once at a sect exchange meeting thirty years ago. What are you doing..."

Coach Wu raised his head with a puzzled look on his face, looked up and down at the old man in front of him, and a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes.

"Father, you have recognized the wrong person. I am not Lei Yinzi. I am just teaching the younger generation of the clan martial arts."

Master Pei from the Beast Taming Valley was stunned after hearing this, and looked at the red-robed young man in front of him carefully again.

That's right? Isn't this Lei Yinzi?

At this moment, there happened to be a disciple from the Beast Taming Valley below. Seeing the elders from their own sect rushing over, they hurriedly shouted for help:
"Elder Pei, I am an inner sect disciple of our Beast Taming Valley. The man in front of me is no longer Lei Yinzi. He has been possessed by a demon!"

Coach Wu frowned, picked up a branch from the ground, hit the man hard, and shouted:

"When practicing martial arts, you must avoid distractions and you are not allowed to make loud noises. This is your first offense, and I will not let you off easily next time!"

Elder Pei next to him was stunned and a little hesitant.

But the disciple from the Taming Beast Valley was completely fed up and ran behind Elder Pei, crying loudly: "Elder, he is not Lei Yinzi, he has been replaced!"

When a group of righteous monks saw the arrival of a righteous senior, they all quit their team and fled behind Master Pei. They gathered in groups of three or four to enumerate this man's perversions. They had suffered a lot during this period.

Lin Shan and other demon monks wisely did not say anything, but began to worry about their lives. After all, the Dharma King who protects the religion has disappeared, and it is "Master Wu" who has entered the Nascent Soul and controls the physical body.

This person was originally just a mortal warrior. Even though he possessed terrifying magical powers, who knew whether he would be able to use them?

If they were captured by a Jindan-stage master from the righteous sect, then they, the evil sect people, would also suffer.

After a group of righteous monks on the opposite side explained in unison, Elder Pei roughly understood what they said. Suddenly, his eyes lit up and he felt that he was extremely lucky to have encountered such a good thing!

If he could capture the red-robed young man, not only would he have captured the Nascent Soul of the powerful demon in his body, but he would also have made the Zixiao Sect owe him a big favor.

Simply kill two birds with one stone!
Master Pei was not vague at the moment and planned to attack "Coach Wu" directly in order to take the credit for himself.

But what is unexpected is that although "Coach Wu" was once a mortal, he had at least participated in "sharing" the memories of the Dharma King who was in the late Nascent Soul stage, and he also entered the Nascent Soul stage with the other two, so he really has the instinct to fight.

"Shh!"

A huge hand of vital energy scooped up from the sky, and Master Pei was suppressed on the spot. His magic power and spiritual consciousness were sealed, and he was thrown directly to the ground. The group of righteous monks behind him were no exception.

"Sigh~"

Everyone gasped and looked at the "Martial Coach" in the center of the field in awe.

Master Pei and a group of righteous monks were in tears. If they had known this would happen, they would have just run away. Why would they come here to provoke others when they have nothing better to do?
Now, I have become a prisoner myself.

The "Martial Arts Coach" didn't care about all this. He seemed to be single-minded and only wanted to teach people how to practice boxing. He didn't kill these righteous monks, but continued to order them to line up and practice his unique martial arts, Kun Fist, seriously.

As a new group of people joined the righteous side, the martial arts coach assigned Lin Shan to teach them boxing, while he continued to guide and correct the old ones.

Lin Shan's heart was pounding as he looked at the fat old man in front of him staring at him. This was the righteous Jindan Zhenren!

I am a cultivator in the foundation-building stage of the evil path, and I am teaching a cultivator in the golden elixir stage of the righteous path. Am I still teaching worldly martial arts?
Master Pei warned Lin Shan softly, "Boy, do as he says. Don't play any tricks on me. You know this is just a temporary measure. When the elders of the righteous path arrive, this farce will be over."

"If you take good care of me now, I might be able to plead for you later!"

Lin Shan secretly glanced at Coach Wu and found that he had no time to care about the little things here and was busy over there.

So he asked tentatively, "Can you protect my life?"

Master Pei pondered for a moment and nodded: "Yes!"

Lin Shan asked cautiously, "Would you mind swearing an oath?"

Master Pei pointed his finger at his eyebrows and said, "I swear to heaven that you will have no worries about your life after this."

Lin Shan was still worried: "Really?"

Master Pei suppressed his impatience and said, "Of course it's true."

Lin Shan hesitated: "Then why don't you swear to Dao Xin again."

Master Pei looked unhappy: "Don't push your luck!"

Lin Shan still looked hesitant: "It's not that I don't trust you, but I don't think it's reliable to swear to heaven. It's safer to swear to Daoxin."

Master Pei secretly cursed the boy for being cunning, but he had concerns about the "oath of the heart of Tao".

"Dao heart" runs through a person's entire life of cultivation. It is not something that can be developed casually. If it is violated, big problems will arise.

After all, who knows the identity and origin of this evil kid?
What if there are any formidable enemies in the righteous path, wouldn’t I be in a difficult position?
But now that he was under his roof, Master Pei still asked seriously.

"Have you ever offended any righteous sect, or any expert above the Golden Core Stage?"

Lin Shan recounted the past grudges and answered honestly: "Yingchuan Cangxuan Sect, I once killed a female deacon of theirs who was in the Foundation Establishment stage at the exit of the Poisonous Canyon in Luosong Mountain Range." Master Pei breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and then sneered.

Cang Xuan Sect?
What kind of third-rate sect is this? I've never heard of it. There are probably one or two Jindan-stage ancestors in the sect at most. I'm an outer sect elder of the Beast Taming Valley, one of the three top sects. I think it shouldn't be difficult to uncover this matter.

"Any more?"

Lin Shan's eyes lit up, he felt there was hope!

Could I clean myself up with this? Could I just change from the evil sect to a new person?

He immediately smiled at Master Pei and said, "There is another righteous sect, Qiufenggu. On the night of the battle of Bianliang, the capital of the Song Dynasty, I once captured the young leader of the sect alive."

Master Pei frowned. Qiufeng Valley was a large sect and also one of the medicinal material giants in the Song Dynasty's cultivation world. Some of its spiritual herbs were even nutrients for raising spiritual insects and spirit poisons. The sect and the Beast Taming Valley had always had a deep cooperative relationship. This matter was a little tricky and needed to be discussed as appropriate.

"What happened to the young leader of Qiufeng Valley after he was captured by you?"

Lin Shan was stunned. He really didn't know this. After coming out of the Imperial Palace that night, he saw the Black Skull Demon Lord, Old Man Zhong and a group of people riding on his puppet chariot to chase and kill a young man in the Foundation Establishment Stage, so he surrounded and beat them up and captured them alive.

After this battle, he left Bianliang and returned to the East China Sea. Naturally, no one knew whether he was dead or alive afterwards.

Fortunately, his gang of younger brothers were also here. Lin Shan called Old Man Zhong over and asked him what happened to this man later.

Old Man Zhong happened to know the follow-up, but in front of the True Man, he spoke a little hesitantly:
"As far as I know, after the young master of Qiufeng Valley was handed over, he was used as a sacrifice at the oath-taking ceremony before the demon army set out to attack Zixiao Sect. It is said that he was thrown into the oil pan and fried."

"."

Everyone around looked at each other.

Master Pei was speechless and even had a slight toothache. Do you think this is something a human can do?
If you want to kill, then kill. If you want to sacrifice, then sacrifice. It is understandable to boost morale.

Why did you have to throw him into the frying pan? And he exploded?!

As expected of a demonic sect, it is so brutal and utterly chaotic.
Lin Shan couldn't help but lament in his heart, the high-ranking members of the Demonic Path are cheating me!
Master Pei's face was uncertain. After careful consideration, he gritted his teeth and felt that it was not impossible for him to step forward with his status.

"Never mind, it doesn't matter. Is there anything else?"

Lin Shan couldn't help showing a look of surprise. How could this Master Pei have such a high status? Did I find a treasure?
This time it's really a blessing in disguise!

After clearing himself, he would become a carefree cultivator again, and could go and seek refuge with his good brother Lin Fan.

With his current qualification of "second-grade special spiritual roots" and the recommendation of Lin Fan, an internal genius, he might have a chance to join the Zixiao Sect.

After all, the Zixiao Sect had experienced that shocking war several years ago, and the entire sect suffered heavy losses. They must find ways to expand their strength, and the recruitment conditions should be relaxed. It was unthinkable to bring talents to the sect before, but now at this critical juncture there is great potential for it!

When Lin Shan thought of the sect's magical power "Nine Heavens Thunder Waterfall" displayed by the three Yuanying elders of Zixiao Sect a few days ago, and the mighty power sweeping across the sky, he couldn't help but feel excited.

I also have the thunder spirit root, maybe I will have the opportunity to learn it someday?
Seeing that he was daydreaming, Master Pei knew that this kid was fantasizing about the future, so he had to cough twice to bring him back to reality.

This time, Lin Shan touched his head embarrassedly and talked about an enemy he had offended recently.

"I visited the Gongsun family in Shangdang County a few days ago and accidentally set a fire that burned several medicinal gardens and spiritual fields of the cultivation family."

The real situation is of course more than just this. The Gongsun family was in great misfortune and was burned to the ground, leaving not a single feather. However, Lin Shan was afraid that the grudge would be too big and Master Pei would not want to take it, so he spoke lightly.

But what I didn’t expect was that Master Pei laughed out loud after hearing this.

"The Gongsun family? They are just a fence-sitter. Even if they act as an insider, they are not core members of the righteous camp. Don't say that you just burned down a few of their medicinal gardens. Even if you burn them to the point where not a single feather is left, I can still cover it up for you!"

Lin Shan was instantly overjoyed, the elders of the Beast Taming Valley were so awesome!
As expected of someone who came from one of the three top sects, he doesn’t even take smaller families seriously.

"Anything else? Tell me all of it in one breath!"

Master Pei was in a very arrogant tone at this time, thinking to himself, you are just a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage, even if you can cause trouble, how big a mess can you make?

The first three forces are probably the limit for this kid. The ones behind them should be some small independent cultivators who are not worthy of being on the stage. I'm afraid he can handle them by himself.

But Lin Shan hesitated unusually at this moment, because there was one person he had not told about, and this person had an unusual background, and he was afraid that Master Pei in front of him would not be able to withstand it.

However, it is better to make this matter clear in advance. If the victim comes knocking on the door and Master Pei cannot protect himself, both of them will be in trouble.

"I once killed a true disciple named Qi Zhong at the exit of the Poison Canyon."

"Oh? Which sect's true disciple is he?"

"Qianyun Pavilion."

"Oh, it's no big deal, I'll get rid of it for you. Hmm? What? What? A true disciple of Qianyun Pavilion?!"

Master Pei was originally nonchalant, but now his head suddenly started to work and he couldn't speak clearly.

Looking at the harmless-looking young man from the Demon Sect in front of him, he couldn't help but stare at him for a long time, as if he really wanted to know what his physique was like and why he was so prone to getting into trouble.

But having said that, this kid is incredible!
He could even kill the true disciples of Qianyun Pavilion. His strength must be one of the best among the younger generation in the Demon Sect!

Unfortunately, he is a true disciple of Qianyun Pavilion, and the grudge between them is quite big. I am afraid I cannot handle it.

As three top sects, Qianyun Pavilion and Yubeast Valley are on equal footing. What's more, he is just an outer sect elder. He may be able to scare the small sects, but he will be powerless when he encounters a tough guy.

unless
This boy can join the Beast Taming Valley and become a member of the Valley. Even if he is only an inner sect disciple, with the sect's backing, his life will be safe.

Master Pei thought for a long time at this moment, and for no reason he felt a desire to attract talent, so he suddenly asked about Lin Shan's background.

"Which sect are you from? What is your identity? Who is behind you?"

Lin Shan answered honestly: "The Black Lotus Sect, the Altar Purifier, has a backer who is a local sect guardian at the Jindan stage."

Master Pei nodded secretly. It seemed that this person did not have a strong presence in the demon world and was probably not doing well. He was a marginal figure.

"How old are you, what is your spiritual talent, and what kind of skills do you practice?"

Lin Shan answered in detail: "Age: 33, Wind Spiritual Roots: B, Thunder Spiritual Roots: C, Skill: Wind and Thunder Skill."

Master Pei was shocked. So young? His aptitude was not bad either! His technique was not a magic one!

This is such a talented and beautiful girl, how could she be buried by the Black Lotus Sect?
This demonic sect is really wasting a talent. Such a talented horse doesn't even have a Bole to appreciate it and invest resources into cultivating it?

You know what, there really was a talent scout who discovered Lin Shan and planned to train him well, and he became a very important figure.

Former leader of the Black Lotus Sect.

It’s a pity that this great figure died in the battle of Zixiao Sect. After his death, Lin Shan had to return to the command of Protector Yan.

However, Protector Yan came from the local faction, was weak and alone, and was also a marginal figure in the Black Lotus Sect, so naturally he could not provide him with much help.

However, Master Pei was tempted at this moment. He felt that Lin Shan had good physique and cultivation, and the techniques he practiced had nothing to do with the devil. He was not taken seriously in the Demon Sect, and most importantly, he was able to kill a true disciple of a top sect at such a young age.

Isn't it the time when young people like these need a mentor?

What's more, the Beast Taming Valley tends to be unconventional in its approach, and the entire sect plays with insects every day. They are a neutral existence that is neither good nor evil. It's just that because they like to tinker with breeding and raising, and don't like to stir up trouble everywhere, they are barely planned to be on the righteous side.

As an elder of the outer sect, he has some power. He can first take this boy to the outer sect, and then make some efforts based on his own conditions. Although he cannot get the status of a true disciple, it should not be a problem for him to become an inner sect disciple.

By then, the matter will have been settled and Qianyun Pavilion will come to settle the accounts. I believe the sect will be able to protect him from this disaster.

Master Pei figured out the whole thing and inquired carefully about Lin Shan's past before he joined the Demonic Path. He discovered that his origins in the mortal world were also clean and that his cousin was a true disciple in the Zixiao Sect. He immediately felt relieved.

"It doesn't matter. You are just a true disciple of Qianyun Pavilion. As long as you join the Beast Taming Valley, which is also a top sect, they can't do anything to you."

After listening to Master Pei's analysis, Lin Shan couldn't help but nod his head repeatedly. It would not be bad to join the Beast Taming Valley. He has summoning skills, and it would be fun to play with insects and create a legion.

He could see that Master Pei seemed to be interested in investing in him. It was rare to meet such a great person, so he immediately expressed his willingness to follow him.

"Although I am in the demon camp, I have always been concerned about the righteous path and always longed to abandon evil and join the light, and become a good person again. Today, I am grateful for the appreciation of the real person, and I am willing to serve you with tea and a fan."

Master Pei helped him up with both hands, with the look of an honest elder on his face: "Good boy, get up quickly, it's not too late for a prodigal son to turn back. From now on, don't do anything that harms the world and morality again. You should focus on doing good deeds and accumulating virtue."

Lin Shan nodded repeatedly, his heart beaming with joy.

Of course, the oath of Daoxin is still necessary. It is the last layer of insurance and the basis of trust between the two parties.

Otherwise, if Master Pei changes his mind at that time, wouldn’t he become a fish on the chopping board?

Master Pei was sincere. It could be seen that this elder of the Beast Taming Valley did not seem to have too many schemes. Perhaps it was because Lin Shan was just a junior in the Foundation Establishment Stage, so he was too lazy to scheme against him.

Of course, it is not ruled out that his cultivation has been sealed, and he is also a wanderer in the world. Lin Shan is currently a favorite of the "Martial Coach", and can provide some protection for himself in his vulnerable moments.

So he did not hesitate and prepared to swear an oath to Dao Xin to put this kid at ease.

However, just as he was about to swear, a disciple he brought with him stopped him hesitantly.

"Master, wait a minute. I'm afraid this matter still needs more careful consideration."

Master Pei was interrupted from swearing, and looked a little displeased, and turned to look at his disciples.

This disciple is quick-witted, clever and well-informed.

“I heard from this Taoist brother just now that he once set fire to the Gongsun family in Shangdang County.

Just two days ago, it was rumored that four Jindan Zhenren from the Qingyang Peak of Qianyun Pavilion, along with all their disciples, were annihilated in the void passage to the Gongsun family because their teleportation array was destroyed by the devil cult's messenger.

Master Pei was startled and could not help but turn back to look at Lin Shan.

Evil cult messenger? Gongsun family? Arson?
This, this, this.
Could it be you, kid?
You have destroyed the entire Taoist lineage of Qianyun Pavilion. This is a huge trouble. Do you have the physique of a "disaster star"?
Lin Shan was also confused. He set the fire that night and just walked away. He really had no idea that this happened.

I, alone, wiped out the entire Taoist lineage of Qianyun Pavilion in one go?
