Cold Clouds

“Hehehe, I didn’t expect that you, old man Yousha, would lose so miserably in terms of mental power.” In an illusory space, a withered old man with white hair and beard looked at the seriously injured red-eyed old man in front of him and laughed sharply, “But it’s no wonder, the master of Medicine King Valley is indeed very powerful in mental power.”

“Heh…” The Yousha old man who had attacked Lin Xiaoxiao through Dai Mo before was circulating Yin Qi to repair his spirit body. After hearing this, he sneered and opened one eye to look at the withered old man. “Old white-boned monster, stop talking nonsense. If it were you who went, you probably wouldn’t even be able to come back!”

"Hey, although I don't want to admit it, what you said does make sense," the old white-bone demon did not refute. After all, this guy was telling the truth. He turned his head to look at the headless spirit sitting on the ground. Looking closely, the headless spirit was missing its left hand. "Tiancan, what should we do next?"

The headless spirit called "Tiancan" suddenly trembled, raised his right hand and formed a few spells, then fell silent again.

A spirit without the lower body slowly crawled out from the shadow beside Tiancan. He looked like a butcher and said in a hoarse voice, "He said, wait."

"When the Lishan Secret Realm opens that day, first seize the Fire Spirit Pearl," the spirit without a lower body continued, "then kill the so-called 'Ten Thousand Nether Empress'."

“Di Que, why don’t you ask Tian Can how to kill the ‘Empress Wan You’?” a shrill voice came from a pale woman in red clothes and black hair sitting beside him. She looked at the man without the lower body and coughed twice. “Although many people may have forgotten me, I, the Empress Xue Ming, as the ‘First Empress of the Demon Cult’, cannot swallow the humiliation of someone taking my title.”

Dique looked at Tiancan, only to see Tiancan raise his right hand again and make a few gestures, and then there was no other movement.

"The Black King's Formation." Di Que uttered these four words in a hoarse voice after a moment of silence. When this sentence was spoken, the originally dark space suddenly lit up with dots of firefly light.

"Follow the teachings of 'Black King' Tiancan..." Countless whispers came from the darkness, as if to pull people into the abyss, "Form the Black King's formation, seize the Medicine King's Divine Valley, steal the mystery of the five elements, and seize the destiny of the heaven..."

"Make my evil cultivation of the devil sect obtain the righteous path and ascend to the upper realm!"

Tian Canku sat there, and when there was no more whispering around him, he raised his hand again, and an ancient and vicissitudes voice appeared in everyone's mind: "Defy the way of heaven and ascend to heaven."

"Defy the will of heaven and ascend to the highest heaven!"

......

"The Black King Palace..." At this time, Lin Xiaoxiao was sitting in the Yunjian Sect's Sutra Library, flipping through a thick ancient book. "It was founded by the 'Black King' Tiancan. No one knows where it is located. The purpose of the organization is to rebel against the way of heaven and ascend to the upper realm. There was once a demon who called himself the Black King Palace, who burned, killed, and looted. It was truly intolerable to heaven and earth."

"One thousand six hundred years ago, the 'Black King' Tiancan's magic power was perfected and he wanted to ascend to the upper realm. As a result, he violated the laws of heaven and earth and was beheaded by thunder. His brother Dique was also destroyed by thunder from the lower half of his body," Lin Xiaoxiao continued to read. "After that, they disappeared. It was not until five hundred years ago that the name 'Black King's Palace' appeared. Its members are all kinds of people, not only evil cultivators, but also demons, ghosts, and monsters. They all survive in the world in the form of spirit bodies."

"In **, the Black King Tiancan appeared in the world to seize the Earth Spirit Pearl. Ye Yuxie, an elder of the Yunjian Sect, fought a fierce battle with him and cut off his left arm. However, reinforcements from the Black King's Palace arrived. Ye Yuxie fought desperately but was defeated. He killed the Soul-Eating Ghost and the Tianlan Heart Demon and died on the spot at the age of 57." Lin Xiaoxiao frowned, "Huh? Why is the year painted over here?"

"Two hundred years ago, the 'Black King' Tiancan appeared again, seized the Water Spirit Pearl, escaped unscathed, and has not been heard from since." Lin Xiaoxiao frowned tightly. In the original book, the Black King Palace was destroyed by Ye Lan and Song Hanyun, who had mastered magical powers, but this was also done under the protection of the Medicine King Valley.

How could Lin Xiaoxiao be so worthy of such a task? She couldn’t even improve her cultivation level, so how could she fight?

Anyway, the Fire Spirit Pearl must not fall into the hands of these guys. As for cultivation... I'll think of another way. At worst, I'll just give up and use Medicine King Valley to fight these bastards.

Speaking of this cultivation level, Lin Xiaoxiao became furious, and cursed the Heaven in her heart. Damn Heaven, just let yourself cheat well, what if the Black King Palace really takes down the Medicine King Valley, let’s see what you will do.

Lin Xiaoxiao put the book back and left angrily.

Tian Dao: If you don’t go and rob the Medicine King Valley, then nothing will happen! ?

......

On the other side, Ye Lan was chatting with Li Tianyuan.

"When I was spying on the secrets of heaven the other day, I discovered that there was an evil force lurking in the lower world. There must be a great crisis coming to the world," Li Tianyuan said in a dilemma. "My strength has not yet recovered. I can't help you even if I want to. You still have to rely on yourself to improve your strength."

"Disciple understands," Ye Lan swung the thousandth sword and breathed a sigh of relief, "But this crisis... when will it appear in the world?"

"I don't know," Li Tianyuan sighed, "but at least one thing is certain, their main target is Medicine King Valley."

Ye Lan paused for a moment as she put away the Tiansha Knife, and a fierce light flashed in her eyes.

"Will Sister Xiaoxiao be in danger?"

"That's right." Li Tianyuan nodded, seeming a little helpless. He knew his disciple too well. When Lin Xiaoxiao was expelled from the mountain, she almost had a fight with Tang Zhen.

Yes, Ye Lan was raised by Lin Xiaoxiao since she was a child. Li Tianyuan sometimes doubted whether Ye Lan could bring herself to kill Lin Xiaoxiao if she was really the ultimate evil.

"Master," Ye Lan twisted her neck, "I think the progress of cultivation needs to be accelerated."

"How about bathing in dragon blood tomorrow?"

The progress is probably a bit too fast. Today, we are still using dragon blood diluted dozens of times. What do you mean by high intensity all of a sudden? Li Tianyuan shook his head: "Okay, little girl, I think Lin Xiaoxiao has extraordinary luck and won't die so easily! Don't worry about it! I will speed up the progress of cultivation appropriately, just rest assured!"

Ye Lan nodded reluctantly, turned her head and swallowed a few pills. Li Tianyuan looked at her while stroking his beard, looking thoughtful.

It seems that peace in this underworld will not last long.

......

After returning to Medicine King Valley, Lin Xiaoxiao lay down on the bed, took a few pills, and felt secretly worried.

After taking so many pills, let alone her cultivation level, her spiritual energy reserves are even a little lower than those of other practitioners who have reached the Golden Elixir stage. This is outrageous.

How come the value of my cultivation is so low?

Lin Xiaoxiao turned over in bed and closed her eyes.

Well, I’m too lazy to think about it, let’s go to sleep.
