The Devil's Tribulation

Nanzhou Holy Flame Island, in the Holy Flame Realm.

After Pan Chengfeng collected the spoils, he meditated for a few hours to adjust his state of mind.

He had killed too cruelly and brutally before, and his state of mind was unstable. Although this was a life-and-death game, if you didn't kill him, he would kill you.

But killing is not enough, and his methods are a bit cruel.

Fortunately, after decades of cultivating immortals, Pan Chengfeng's character has improved a lot, so he has not gone astray.

Feeling that it was almost done, Pan Chengfeng stood up and said, "That's enough. I'd better not kill people like this in the future. It's a big psychological burden. Sigh~~ I'm still too kind."

On the other side, Ye Qinqin was also meditating to recover from her injuries. She didn't actually have any actual injuries, but her mana was greatly depleted. After meditating for a few hours, she recovered a lot.

Chen Jie kept standing there, extending her spiritual sense from time to time. Although she didn't say it, she was still very worried about Pan Chengfeng in her heart.

A person said he wanted to kill more than two hundred Void Refining cultivators. Is it possible for him to say that he is not worried?

Fortunately, after waiting for five hours, Pan Chengfeng finally came back. Chen Jie's pretty face lit up with joy and she hurried to greet him.

Ye Qinqin also sensed Pan Chengfeng's breath, stopped practicing, stood up and looked in the direction Pan Chengfeng was flying from.

After two or three breaths, a beam of light came rushing over.

Pan Chengfeng had a sly smile on his face as he waved at Chen Jie and Ye Qinqin and shouted, "I'm back~~"

Chen Jie went up to him without hesitation, hugged Pan Chengfeng's waist, and put her pretty face on Pan Chengfeng's chest and whispered softly, "You are finally back. I was so worried about you."

Pan Chengfeng raised his hands, his mouth twitching as he said, "Senior Sister, there are people here, don't be like this."

Ye Qinqin took a step forward, wanting to meet him, but finally held back. She simply bowed to Pan Chengfeng in mid-air and said, "I thank you, Junior Brother, for saving my life."

Seeing that Chen Jie was holding on tightly and he couldn't push her away, Pan Chengfeng could only let Chen Jie hang on him.

Pan Chengfeng bowed slightly to Ye Qinqin and said, "Senior Sister Ye, you are too polite. Let's not talk about us being fellow disciples. Even if we are both Dongzhou cultivators, I can't just stand by and watch you die~"

More than a dozen monks nearby also bowed to Pan Chengfeng to express their gratitude. This was a great favor for saving their lives, and they all said that they would repay Pan Chengfeng.

Pan Chengfeng waved his hand and said, "Everyone, stop making promises to me. Let's talk about these things after we get out."

These people nodded in agreement and surrounded Pan Chengfeng to flatter him. Pan Chengfeng was quite polite at first and responded with a few words, but these people kept surrounding him.

Pan Chengfeng wanted to go over and see how badly Ye Qinqin was injured, but these people wouldn't let him leave.

Pan Chengfeng became impatient and shouted loudly: "Alright!"

The scene fell silent.

Pan Chengfeng stared at these people and said calmly, "I know what you are thinking.

I will not pursue the matter of asking my senior sister to cover us before, after all, it was my senior sister's willingness.

If you all want to continue following my Yu Lei Sect, I have no objection.

As long as you listen to me along the way, it’s not impossible for me to get you out alive, and even get some opportunities…”

Pan Chengfeng changed the subject, his aura rising as he spoke in a cold tone, "But! If you have other motives, or if you don't work hard, I won't show any mercy!"

More than a dozen people were silent, not daring to speak.

Pan Chengfeng's meaning is very simple. If you want to follow me and get some benefits, you can~

But you have to be obedient. If I tell you to go east, you have to go east. If I tell you to poop, you can't pee.

After dealing with these people, Pan Chengfeng finally got a chance to come to Ye Qinqin and directly reached out to grab Ye Qinqin's wrist.

Ye Qinqin was about to struggle when Pan Chengfeng said in an unquestionable tone, "Don't move!"

Ye Qinqin was frightened by the tone and let Pan Chengfeng hold her little hand in a daze.

After a while, Pan Chengfeng finally let go of Ye Qinqin's hand and breathed a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, nothing happened. However, your mana has been depleted. It's better not to fight with others recently."

Ye Qinqin's face flushed red as she nodded slightly, "I...I'm fine, so don't worry, Junior Brother."

Pan Chengfeng snorted coldly and said, "Are you alright? If I hadn't arrived in time, you would have been killed by those bastards!"

Ye Qinqin was about to speak when Pan Chengfeng interrupted her, saying, "Stop talking. Don't do this kind of thing again. This is for grown men."

Pan Chengfeng looked up at Chen Jie and said, "You too, rushing to cover the rear? Is that fun?"

If a man leaves the rear, the worst that can happen is death! You women…"

Pan Chengfeng didn't continue talking. Everyone knew what he meant. If a woman stayed behind, and she was pretty, wouldn't she be pursued first and then later?

Seeing that the two girls lowered their heads and said nothing, Pan Chengfeng sighed and said, "Okay, now that I'm here, leave everything to me from now on.

Senior Sister Ye, please tell me what's going on up ahead."

Ye Qinqin had led the team for a distance before, but was later chased and had to run back.

When Ye Qinqin heard Pan Chengfeng ask her, she quickly replied, "There are quite a few people on this road. I led the team for two days and encountered several groups of cultivators, each with 30 to 50 people.

There are the most cultivators in South Continent, and there are also cultivators in West Continent. Our cultivators in East Continent are scattered here and there.

Some who were willing joined my team, but dozens of people who were unwilling to follow me left on their own."

Pan Chengfeng asked, "Is this the direction to find the Demon Companion Grass?"

Chen Jie replied: "Yes, according to what Palace Master Ying said, there are three directions: west, south, and north.

The one to the west is the demon-companion grass, the one to the south is the technique, and the one to the north is the quasi-immortal treasure."

Pan Chengfeng muttered secretly, "This Holy Flame Palace definitely has bad intentions. They knew that most people would choose the Companion Demon Grass, yet they still told everyone the direction.

This will only make everyone start fighting halfway through the journey. By the time we reach the Demon Companion Grass, who knows how many will be left alive."

Chen Jie hesitated for a moment and said, "How about we not look for the Demon Companion Grass first, but go get the technique first?"

Ye Qinqin shook her head and said, "No, our Ye family must get this demon-companion grass!"

Pan Chengfeng glanced at Ye Qinqin, who quickly lowered her pretty face, but still said stubbornly, "My cousin and I have an appointment to meet on this road. If I leave on my own, my cousin will be in danger."

Pan Chengfeng chuckled and said, "It seems the Ye family still refuses to give up. Well, let's go this way."

Ye Qinqin was delighted and quickly stood up and said, "Okay, let's hurry on our way. We were being chased before and wasted quite a bit of time..."

Ye Qinqin was suddenly stunned because Pan Chengfeng was looking at her coldly.

Pan Chengfeng stared at Ye Qinqin for two breaths, then said calmly, "From now on, there can only be one voice in the team, and that's mine!"

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Pan Chengfeng was the first to fly away, and the others hurriedly followed. Ye Qinqin was stunned for a while, then hurriedly followed.

She forgot that Pan Chengfeng had said before that he would show no mercy to anyone who had "other motives".

A million miles away from Pan Chengfeng, there is a dangerous place in the Holy Flame Realm called the 'Dragon Soul Abyss', where the dragon soul of an eighth-level divine dragon is sealed.

Although it is only the dragon soul of a divine dragon, it is still an eighth-level divine beast, and its power is definitely not comparable to that of an ordinary seventh-level monster.

I heard that Emperor Yan spent a lot of time and energy to subdue this dragon soul.

The Dragon Soul Abyss has a specialty called 'Dragon Soul Grass', which is the main ingredient for refining Dragon Soul Pills in the world of immortal cultivation.

Dragon Soul Pill is a precious pill that increases soul power and mental strength.

When taken by a cultivator in the fusion stage, his soul power and mental power can be greatly improved. Even if taken by a cultivator in the Mahayana stage, there will be considerable benefits.

That's why Emperor Yan spent so much effort to seal this eighth-level dragon soul, allowing it to continuously "produce medicine" for Emperor Yan.

Ye Bufan, along with a dozen or so Ye family cultivators, encountered this dangerous place on their way west.

After hearing about the miraculous effects of the Dragon Soul Pill, I became interested in it.

A dozen or so Ye family cultivators were discussing how to enter the abyss and pick the Dragon Soul Grass when a large group of Nanzhou cultivators were rapidly approaching.

Pan Chengfeng naturally also sensed Ye Bufan's soul imprint and was flying rapidly towards the Dragon Soul Abyss.

But what he didn't know was that Xin'er was also heading in this direction.
