Master of the Xuanyin Sect of Mount Shu

Chapter 13 From Beloved Daughter to Lowly Servant in the Blink of an Eye

After the Long-Browed Immortal's suppressing talisman shattered, the barrier surrounding the cave instantly collapsed and disappeared.

Guan Minghui used to feel like a heavy mountain was pressing down on his mind, but now that mountain has vanished, he feels completely relaxed.

If he weren't bound by the Fire Cloud Chain, he would be flying high and low, roaming freely between heaven and earth!
Yang Li thought he had destroyed Guan Minghui's "Nine Yang Divine Talisman" and was hoping that the demon corpse would not be able to cultivate the Xuan Yin Inner Core.

He heard faint voices coming from the wind rising from the dark passage below, like laughter or cursing.

"The demon corpse was alerted so quickly? It must be furious right now." Yang Li was eager to see the demon corpse's angry expression.

But he held back, cast a spell downwards, preparing to return to his immortal abode, and then leave to go back to the South Sea.

Suddenly, a large amount of black silk threads surged up from the dark, windy ground.

"Not good! The demon corpse has awakened and wants to kill me to vent its anger!" Yang Li swung his sword fiercely, slashing to protect himself.

His sword was of extraordinary quality; black, ominous threads, wrapped in a chilling wind, swarmed forth and were sliced ​​apart by his sword as easily as cutting leeks.

The black wisps of smoke dispersed into thick, sticky smoke that clung together and remained around Yang Li.

Yang Li fled quickly toward the entrance of the Immortal Abode Cave. Just as he reached the fork in the road, several beastly roars suddenly came from the darkness, and a giant python actually condensed from the black aura surrounding him.

The python, as thick as a man's arm, opened its grotesque snout and looked down at him, spraying out large amounts of black, pungent silk.

Yang Li brandished his sword to protect his head and went to slash at the manta ray, but his two ankles were suddenly grabbed by the manta ray's two arms and dragged downwards.

Unable to attend to both ends, he managed a feeble sword flourish to force the python back before turning to slay the mountain demon.

Suddenly, the python's body emerged from the darkness beside him, quickly climbing onto his body and wrapping around him. Then, it opened its enormous mouth and swallowed him whole from head to toe, shrinking into a ball before exploding open with a bang.

The black mist surged, and the python and mountain demon all disappeared. Yang Li had fallen into a coma.

Amidst the howling wind, only two black threads remained, one wrapped around Yang Li and the other around the immortal sword, dragging downwards all the way to the bedside.

Guan Minghui couldn't suppress his joy. He threw the unconscious Yang Li into a corner and grabbed the sword.

This sword is indeed quite good, not the best but not the worst either. It's a step below the top flying swords in Shu Mountain and can't cut through the Fire Cloud Chain, but it's still quite remarkable.

Guan Minghui planned to send it into the Earth's core, soak it in black yin, polish it with earth spirit, and then refine it remotely every day.

Ultimately, it was forged into the signature weapon of the Xuan Yin Sect—the Black Fiend Sword.

Without the suppression of the Long-Browed Immortal's talisman, his black wisps could extend over a hundred miles away and easily penetrate the ground to directly absorb moonlight!
If he wanted, he could make the mountains and valleys within a hundred miles grow full of "black vegetative silk," swaying like water plants in the dead of night...

When Yang Li woke up, he was initially confused about what had happened. He thought he had damaged the Nine Yang Divine Talisman, causing the demon corpse to fail in its alchemy process.

At that time, he was somewhat pleased, thinking that even if he died, he could at least slow down the cultivation of the demon corpse.

But the more I watched, the more something seemed off. The demon corpse was always cheerful, showing no sadness, anger, or rage, and it never tried to kill him.

On the contrary, they treated him quite well, even injecting a stream of Heavenly Profound Yin True Qi into his dantian and teaching him a cultivation technique on how to refine the dark and malevolent energy within his dantian.
"You've accomplished two major tasks for me in a row, this is a reward for you. Most of your original cultivation methods are no longer viable. This is a technique for cultivating Xuan Yin Dan Qi and then refining Xuan Yin Inner Core. From now on, you can rest assured and be a demon corpse."

Meanwhile, Lingxuzi Cui Haike, the island master of Juping Island in the South China Sea, led his disciples to refine the Dragon Pearl to their liking and gave his disciples several lectures on the Dharma.

Gradually, worry for his young apprentice grew in his heart, increasing day by day. On a whim, he cast a divination, which indeed revealed that Yang Li was in trouble!
According to the divination, Yang Li encountered a situation of "a tiger falling into a deep pit".

With Dui and Kan, Dui corresponds to Ze (lake) and Kan corresponds to water, so he must be trapped in some muddy, impassable place with no sunlight. Dui and Kan are also related to the moon, so it seems that he has been captured by a heretical sorcerer associated with Taiyin and Xuanyin.

He was worried and instructed his eldest disciple, Yu Zhong, to lead the other disciples to guard the cave, while he himself came to the Central Plains alone.

First, head to Rabbit Cliff in Mangcang Mountain and find Lu Min.

Lu Minzheng felt that the signs of pregnancy on her daughter's face were getting stronger and stronger, and her pulse also indicated that she was pregnant. She was so angry that she gritted her teeth and kept interrogating her about who the adulterer was.

Lu Rongbo was also baffled. She was a virgin who had never had any physical intimacy with a man, so how could she be pregnant?

In reality, she and Yang Li were collecting exotic flowers and plants to decorate their cave dwelling when they accidentally found a mimosa lotus, which was one of the top three silver medicines in the Shu Mountain world.

Cui Haike was an expert in alchemy and medicine preparation. If he were present, he would definitely recognize it. Lu Rongbo and her father did not recognize it. Yang Li started learning too late, and the flower was too rare, so she did not learn it.

Yang Li left in a hurry that day. Lu Rongbo told her father about what happened at Lingyu Cliff and decided to ignore it and go back to the back cave to tend to the flowers and plants.

Because the mimosa lotus grows very large and strange, shaped like the epiphyllum, with a flower head about a foot in size, and the flowers bloom in pairs, and are like living things. If the two flowers are too far apart, they will automatically turn around and look at each other. If they are too close, they will turn back to each other.

Lu Rongbo found it amusing and picked it up to play with. Suddenly, she felt a strange fragrance enter her brain and fainted on the spot.

Rabbit Cliff is not far from Spirit Jade Cliff. It is also a place where a separate dragon vein rises. The medicinal power of the Hehuan Lotus is extremely strong. It attracted the dragon vein stone energy into her belly and made love with her essence and blood, thus she became pregnant.

Lu Min was unaware of this and was furious, convinced that her daughter had cheated on her husband, disgraced the Lu family, and ruined her own cultivation.

Each time, he managed to suppress his anger with his remaining rationality, but when he saw his daughter's face showing even more signs of pregnancy, his anger would surge again, and he would be furious.

That day, he questioned Lu Rongbo again, growing angrier with each word, and finally cursed: "Shameless wretch! How dare you argue? Your former master, the Blissful Immortal, often said that you have heavy karma and shallow destiny, and will not achieve enlightenment."

I have tried time and again to marry you off, you lowly servant, but you have sworn an oath and refused.

You have followed me in cultivating the Tao for many years, and are nearly a hundred years old, yet you dared to openly commit such a disgraceful act right under my nose! If I were to spare your life, your lifelong reputation would be utterly ruined!

Just as he was about to unleash his flying sword to kill Lu Rongbo and uphold the family's honor, Cui Haike arrived!
Hearing the shouts from the cliff, Lu Minqiang suppressed his anger: "I'll settle the score with you when I get back!" After saying that, he turned around and went to the front cave to see Cui Haike.

When Cui Haike saw Lu Min's angry expression, he didn't know what was wrong, so he asked about the demon-slaying: "My apprentice is not skilled enough. I sent him to your tutelage to be at your service and assist in subduing demons. I wonder how he did, whether he made a fool of himself or caused any trouble?"

Lu Min sneered: "Your good disciple went to Lingyu Cliff to slay demons and exorcise evil spirits more than four months ago. Now we don't even know if he's alive or dead. If you want to collect his body, it's probably too late now!"
