The host ruthlessly crushes scum in the small world

"Are you sure what you said is true?"

Sang Qinglin stood up abruptly. What had he just heard? The Demon Lord had been resurrected?!

"Master, everything I said is true. You should be able to notice anything different about my wound, right?"

Lin Chuyun didn't say anything more; she knew Sang Qinglin would believe her.

Sang Qinglin recalled the wound on his disciple's back; the lingering demonic energy on it was just like the Demon Lord's aura.

Has the Demon Lord really been resurrected?

Sang Qinglin recalled the events of the past ten years. His senior brother was still in seclusion. What should he do this time?

Sang Qinglin's gaze fell on Lin Chuyun. Back then, the sect leader's senior brother had a lightning spiritual root, which was perfect for suppressing demonic energy.

If it really comes to that and the sect leader hasn't emerged from seclusion, then his own disciple might be the main force this time...

"You get some rest, I'll go discuss a strategy with the other peak masters."

Lin Chuyun nodded and closed her eyes to rest, but the spiritual energy within her body began to circulate through her meridians.

This fight with Lin Que actually helped her advance to the first level of the Golden Core stage.

He took a small step forward and became a second-stage Golden Core cultivator.

"I just don't know how long it will take for the wound on my back to heal."

Lin Chuyun could only frantically circulate the spiritual energy within her body, using it to repair her injured back. Fortunately, she had already received treatment beforehand, otherwise spiritual energy alone wouldn't have been enough.

The wound finally healed after Lin Chuyun's three days of tireless spiritual energy circulation.

Lin Chuyun has only been able to move around occasionally these days; this back injury is really hard to heal.

"Ah Yun, I've discussed it with the Peak Master."

Lin Chuyun was eating when Sang Qinglin arrived. Lin Chuyun nodded.

"Master, please have a seat. What was the outcome of your discussion?"

"We've decided to focus our training on you starting today."

"Train me?"

The meat in Lin Chuyun's mouth suddenly didn't taste good anymore. Was this the start of grueling training?

"Yes, you know that the sect leader has a lightning spiritual root, and you are one of only two people in the sect with a lightning spiritual root. The lightning spiritual root is the best spiritual root for suppressing demonic energy."

"Oh well"

Sang Qinglin wanted to say something, but he didn't expect his disciple to agree so readily. Watching Lin Chuyun continue eating, Sang Qinglin smiled and shook his head.

"Master, I actually have a question."

"what?"

"Does Master believe the Sect Master is truly in seclusion?"

Sang Qinglin's expression froze.

"It must be him, I believe him..."

Watching Sang Qinglin leave, feigning composure

"Master, there's a secret here."

As he spoke, he stuffed a piece of meat into his mouth. Lin Chuyun nodded, "Delicious!"

Starting the next day, Lin Chuyun began practicing her swordplay like crazy.

Sang Qinglin was initially worried that Lin Chuyun might not be familiar with lightning spirit roots, given that there were no cultivation techniques for them.

But he discovered that Lin Chuyun seemed to have developed her own cultivation technique, wielding the sword formed from gathered spiritual energy exceptionally well.

It can even take into account the usage of ice spirit root.

"Ah Yun, is this really your first time cultivating?"

"yes"

Lin Chuyun answered while twirling her sword, explaining that her biggest difficulty right now was that her ice spirit root lacked sufficient spiritual energy.

Sang Qinglin nodded with satisfaction as he watched Lin Chuyun's increasingly familiar movements.

The Tianshan Sect also sent people out to investigate the situation of the demons, but they didn't seem to find "Lin Que".

Only a few demons who operated independently outside the mountain gates speculated that the Demon Lord had not truly mastered Lin Que's body.

Otherwise, given the Demon Lord's temperament, he would have already attacked. It's fortunate that this situation arose, allowing the people inside the mountain gate to devise a countermeasure.

After a week of grueling training, Lin Chuyun successfully reached the fifth level of the Golden Core stage.

"My spiritual energy is being depleted too quickly..."

Lin Chuyun thought for a moment, recalling the space in the previous apocalyptic mini-world!

Why didn't I think of that?

Lin Chuyun appeared in the space in an instant, and saw that the space seemed to have expanded a lot.

"What's going on? I'll go check on that spring."

Sure enough, the spring water exuded spiritual energy. Lin Chuyun walked over, looked at the spiritual spring, and scooped up some to drink.

I felt the spiritual energy within my body

"Sure enough!"

Lin Chuyun diverted some of the spiritual spring water from her spatial storage, practiced for a while, and drank some more of the spring water. Sure enough, her spiritual energy recovered.

"Looks like there's a way."

Lin Chuyun found some spiritual spring water in a wine pot, hoping it would be useful later.

But the Demon Lord arrived quickly. He seemed very confident and severely injured the disciples who had gone out to investigate.

But it was returned to the mountain gate, and a message was also brought back.

"Three days from now, I will massacre the Silin Sect!"

Upon seeing this news, Sang Qinglin felt that the Demon Lord was far too arrogant.

"Master, don't worry, I will practice hard these next few days."

Sang Qinglin nodded. He hadn't expected his disciple, who had only been a disciple for a short time, to already be shouldering such responsibilities.

"I will always guard the mountain gate."

Lin Chuyun looked at Sang Qinglin's worried face and hoped that her method would work.

Three days passed quickly. During these three days, Lin Chuyun practiced frantically and had already reached the eighth level of the Golden Core stage.

"Hahaha!"

Lin Chuyun and those who were willing to stay inside the mountain gate stood at the usual competition area.

Those who did not wish to remain at the mountain gate were sent back, firstly because no one was certain they could truly protect the mountain gate effectively.

Secondly, it's to avoid situations where disciples change their minds after being forced to stay, which would likely cause even more trouble.

"What? Kiyoshi isn't here? Is he dead? Hahahaha!"

Lin Que arrogantly looked around at the people, not recognizing anyone familiar. Qing Si was the sect leader.

"You are presumptuous!"

Sang Qinglin held his sword with a righteous and awe-inspiring expression; he couldn't bear to hear anyone mention his senior brother.

"Then call him out! I'm here to get revenge!"

In that battle, the Demon Lord died, but Kiyoshi was also seriously injured. Now that the Demon Lord has been resurrected, of course he wants revenge.

"We don't need our sect leader! We can handle it!"

Lin Chuyun immediately drew her ice sword, and the others also summoned their own swords.

"How dare this lowly disciple speak to me like that! Everyone, listen to my command and kill him!"

Although the mountain-protecting formation was activated, it posed no threat to the Demon Lord, whose demonic energy directly corroded the formation.

Soon, the formation was eroded, creating a hole, and the demons outside entered the mountain gate through the hole.

"Disciples, listen to my command! Charge!"

Meanwhile, Lin Chuyun and Sang Qinglin dealt with the Demon Lord.

"You think you two can take me down?"

The Demon Lord laughed wildly; neither of them could get close to him before being attacked by his demonic energy.

"This won't work!"

While resisting the demonic energy, Lin Chuyun shifted her position, preparing to try and break through from behind the Demon Lord.

As soon as Lin Chuyun walked behind the Demon Lord, the Demon Lord drew his longsword and thrust it at her.

"careful!"

Lin Chuyun immediately raised her ice sword to defend, but was directly shaken back several steps, and blood spilled from the corner of her mouth.

"This person has probably reached the peak of the Nascent Soul stage!"

Lin Chuyun looked at her trembling hands. As expected, the difference in their cultivation levels was too great. Was she really unable to withstand it?
