Monk Huikong rolled up his old monk's robe, stepped on the Buddhist beads and chased in the direction his junior fellow disciple left.

At this time, three days had passed since Yu Fei and her group left. During this period, they traveled to many places and with Yu Fei's help, they were able to build the formation faster, which made the two sect elders particularly satisfied.

There were only a few materials left in the storage bag, and the exceptionally smooth journey gave the old man surnamed Wu some other ideas.

The four of them sat on the flying boat. Elder Wu tilted his head slightly and said to the demon girl who was fiddling with her bright red nails, "Junior sister, this blood refining has come to an end. Why don't we choose a small town to slaughter them? It will definitely meet the needs of the headmaster, and at the same time we will have some surplus."

As soon as these words came out, Elder Hua paused in his fingernails, and a hint of interest flashed in his eyes. This trip was to obtain blood sacrifice materials for the sect, and the two of them could only get a few more spirit stones. If they could take this opportunity to earn blood essence and soul, that would be more than just spirit stones.

After all, the soul essence and blood must be used by the three foundation-building period masters first, and the rest will be taken by the elders. Even so, the limited materials will be divided into several portions for the noble families in the sect, after all, their contributions to the sect are obvious to all.

In the end, only a few pieces were left, which were not enough for them to use.

"But..."

Elder Hua was still a little hesitant, after all, this move was indeed somewhat dangerous. In the past, he only selected some villages, but now he wanted to sacrifice the entire town, which would cost the lives of thousands of people.

"Isn't this action against the harmony of nature?"

"Tianhe?"

Elder Wu huddled in his cloak and laughed strangely. "We, the demon cultivators, are here to fight for our lives and seize the laws of heaven and earth. We are only a few thousand people, and even if we have some surplus, it will only barely cover our expenses for a few years."

At this point he whispered sinisterly, "There is still a long time to come. How can we, the demon cultivators, be so timid?"

The voice was like a cold wind blowing over Yu Fei and the other two. Even the white snake lying on their shoulders couldn't help but shrink its neck, and a look of fear flashed in its cold eyes.

Yu Fei lowered her head quickly. Although she had not killed anyone in the past few days, she was responsible for everyone's death. Her heart was slowly filled with guilt, and now she heard that he was looking at the town, and her face turned even paler.

When she was feeling guilty, a hand appeared in her sight and gently covered the back of her hand. A wonderful thought passed through the palm of her hand and entered her body, calming her restless heart instantly.

Yu Fei broke free from her self-pity and turned to look at the young man beside her in surprise.

He stared at Yu Fei quietly as always, making her feel as if she was seeing herself in the mirror. The dust covering her heart was gently brushed away by a pair of hands, and her eyes became clear.

What Yu Fei didn't know was that she had just been taken advantage of by her inner demons because of her lack of concentration. If she continued to be trapped in this kind of self-entanglement, she might completely fall into the evil path. However, the young man's mind was pure and clear, which was rare in the world. He immediately noticed Yu Fei's abnormality and helped her.

The corners of her mouth curled up unconsciously, and she shook her head gently to indicate that she was fine. Only then did he withdraw his right hand and kneel quietly beside her.

In front of the blood-colored flying boat, the two elders had already made up their minds, but Elder Hua still couldn't suppress his greed and decided to give it a try. Elder Wu's wrinkled face showed a satisfied smile. After all, it would be difficult for him to swallow a small town alone.

The two elders did not ask the opinions of Yu Fei and the other two behind them at this time. After all, in their eyes, the two were like ants. How dare ants disobey the big tree? Even if they were branches on the big tree, they could not move them.

The two discussed for a while and quickly chose a remote town. This town is located on the border of Quanzhou and is the hub of the surrounding villages. It is unlikely that there will be any powerful characters living in seclusion there.

The blood-colored flying boat concealed its escape light and crossed a distance of a hundred miles before finally seeing the slightly prosperous mortal town in the distance.

There was a constant flow of people everywhere, creating a lively scene.

The four of them flew out of the town and put away the flying boat. Elder Wu glanced at the two people behind him with a sinister look.

"You two should immediately start setting up the formation and try to complete it before midnight."

Concubine Yu, Ah Cheng did not dare to disobey and quickly bowed in response.

Seeing that they were sensible, Elder Wu turned to look at the woman beside him. "Junior Sister Hua, how about you and I go in and explore the depth of this town?"

Elder Hua smiled and walked to his side, twisting his waist.

"This matter is entirely up to you, Senior Brother. I, Junior Sister, will definitely do my part."

Elder Wu nodded, and immediately performed the Breath-Concealing Technique to conceal the spiritual energy. Without the spiritual pressure and aura, the two looked like an ordinary father and daughter at first glance, walking towards the town together.

Seeing the two of them leave, Ah Cheng took out the materials with a snap of his hands.

"Let's start too."

Yu Fei nodded, secretly admiring his calmness, as if he had never been disturbed by external things and nothing could move him.

Night slowly falls.

At this time, the two elders came back and were following Acheng and Yu Fei, quietly waiting for them to set up the formation.

"I really let you guess it."

Elder Hua smiled and said, "There is actually a cultivator in the middle stage of Qi Refining in this remote place. He must be a casual cultivator who feels that there is no hope of becoming an immortal and wants to return to his family to retire."

Elder Wu looked very satisfied at this time. There were about 3,000 living mortals in this town. If he could refine all of them, he would be able to live for several years. He could even try to reach the foundation building stage.

"Since there is only that casual cultivator, there will be no obstacle. Besides, the blood, essence and soul of a cultivator are more precious." Having said this, the face that looked like a ghost in the night stared at the woman beside him.

"This person is mine. Do you have any objection?"

After these words came out, Elder Hua's face froze, and he felt a little dissatisfied. After all, he also contributed, so he should get some benefits. But when he found Elder Wu's eyes were cold and his devilish energy was surging, he was still a little afraid.

Although both of them are at the ninth level of Qi Refining, I am only at the initial stage, while he is at the perfect ninth level. Even if the chance of him building a foundation is not high, the foundation he possesses is not something I can match.

Thinking of this, I could only force a smile.

"Oh, that's not right. Brother, you and I are like brothers. This person should be handed over to you. How could I spy on him?"

Seeing that she had surrendered, Elder Wu gradually suppressed the surging evil spirit.

"That's it, that's good."

Time slowly approached midnight, and the whole town was exceptionally quiet, with only a few flashes of fire occasionally.

The brightest spot is a family in the town, and that is where the cultivators live.

The people who were sitting cross-legged in meditation slowly opened their eyes and stared at the young man and girl. They saw them embedding spiritual stones into the formation one by one. As the formation was activated, waves of unobstructed spiritual power dissipated.

At this time in the town, the old man who was resting in bed suddenly sat up, his long, dry white hair disheveled.

This is the fluctuation of spiritual power!

"There are practitioners nearby!"
