Fantasy: The Clan Chief Lies Down, His House Is Full of Emperors

After Xu Qiufeng and the others adapted to the Five Elements Body and changed their cultivation methods, they left the Xu family again.

They did not go to the Southern Region together this time.

Xu Qiufeng preferred to go to the Northern Region, where there were more demons. He felt that he could eat better and become stronger there.

Accompanying him was Qu Wubing, a body cultivator, who was not suitable to fight against demonic cultivators in the Southern Region because the demonic cultivators' fighting with celestial ghosts and yin spirits made him feel very frustrated.

Qu Wubing felt that fighting with the demon race was more enjoyable.

That's why he teamed up with Xu Qiufeng and set off together for the Northern Region.

Xu Luo, along with Xu Chen, Mo Weishuang, and a group of Hidden Dragon Guards, revisited the old territory and returned to the Southern Region.

However, this time they did not go to the territory of the Netherworld Sect, but instead came to the Heavenly Demon Sect.

Two hundred thousand miles southeast of the Heavenly Demon Sect, there is a grove of phoenix trees. In the grove, there is a patch of Falling Moon Grass. The dew on the grass is called Falling Moon Water, a spiritual substance needed by those with a Five Elements Body.

After arriving at the Wutong Forest, Xu Luo and his group set up camp there, intending to stay for a while.

During this period, there were two objectives. One was to intercept and kill the disciples of the Heavenly Demon Sect. Even if we were to fleece them, we couldn't catch them all at once. We should give the Netherworld Sect a break first, since none of the five major demonic sects could escape anyway.

Another purpose was to observe the growing environment around the moonflower.

Xu Luo, who was well-versed in alchemy, understood that the rarer and more precious a spiritual plant was, the stricter its requirements for the surrounding growing environment.

If you rashly transplant the Fallen Moon Grass back, it will most likely die.

To ensure a continuous supply of Fallen Moon Water, it is necessary to observe the growth environment of Fallen Moon Grass in the Wutong Forest and ensure a perfect replication before transplanting it back.

Not long after Xu Luo arrived, Elder Wang of the Netherworld Sect came to find him.

"What is it?" Xu Luo asked directly. He had told Elder Wang before not to contact him unless there was something important.

Elder Wang said in a low voice, "The five major demonic sects have begun to implement a rather large plan."

"What plan?" Xu Luo asked疑惑地, wondering what grand plan he, in his rebirth, was unaware of.

Elder Wang explained, "Because they fear Buddhism, demonic cultivators dare not kill indiscriminately outside the Southern Region. However, in order to improve their cultivation, they have no choice but to kill. Therefore, the high-ranking members of the five major demonic sects devised a plan."

"Whenever the members of the five major demonic sects discover ruins and caves outside the Southern Region, they try to restore them to their original state after exploration. Then they set up traps and mechanisms inside to create the illusion of the ruins emerging from the earth, and spread the news to attract a large number of cultivators to explore."

"Once a large number of cultivators enter the ruins, the demonic cultivators lurking within can kill them without them noticing."

"This plan was decided three thousand years ago. It has been in preparation for three thousand years, accumulating a lot of ruins and cave dwellings. Now it is ready. Next, some ruins and cave dwellings of varying sizes will appear in various parts of Cangzhou."

"I came here to remind you to be vigilant and not to suffer losses."

Xu Luo frowned slightly. "If that's the case, why not start during the update phase of the Prodigy Ranking?"

During the update phase of the Prodigy Ranking, opportunities abound in various regions, making it a perfect time to mingle among them and attract more cultivators.

"The five major demonic sects only want to kill some ordinary cultivators, not the geniuses of various races, so as not to arouse suspicion," Elder Wang replied.

Xu Luo immediately understood.

That makes sense. During the update phase of the Prodigy Ranking, most opportunities will involve prodigies from various races.

No one cares if an ordinary cultivator is killed by a demonic cultivator, but if a prodigy dies inside, a powerful figure will definitely go to investigate, and it will be easy to be exposed.

The five major demonic sects have certainly considered things thoroughly.

Moreover, the fact that Xu Luo, who was reborn from this plan, was unaware of it indicates that the plan was very well kept secret and had never been exposed.

If Elder Wang hadn't leaked the secret, Xu Luo in this life most likely wouldn't have known.

As for why Elder Wang specifically came to remind Xu Luo, it wasn't because he had completely submitted to Xu Luo, or because he had a change of heart.

It was because he possessed three methods set up by Xu Luo: a life-and-death seal similar to a demon seed, a type of poison, and control over a wisp of his primordial spirit.

If something happens to Xu Luo, Elder Wang will die as well.

If Xu Luo hadn't asked him to infiltrate the Netherworld Sect, he would have wanted to stay with Xu Luo at all times to protect his safety.

Elder Wang was terrified of death and desperately wanted to live.

He had tried various ways to break the three methods Xu Luo used to control his life and death, but none of them worked, so he had no choice but to accept his fate.

Then Elder Wang took out a jade slip and handed it to Xu Luo.

"The ruins and caves recorded here have all been explored by the five major demonic sects, who have set traps and ambushes. It will still be about six months before the plan is completed."

Xu Luo glanced at it and waved his hand.

"You can leave now if there's nothing else."

Mr. Wang left with a sullen face. He wanted to put on a fawning smile, but his withered cheeks and bulging eyes made his smile too creepy.

After Xu Luo saw him once, he told him not to smile in front of him, and he has had that expression ever since.

Although he performed well this time, Xu Luo still didn't give him a friendly look.

As an inner elder of the Netherworld Sect and a True Saint, he has killed so many people that he can't even remember them all. It can be said that he swam through seas of blood and stepped on mountains of bones to achieve his current status and strength.

It's already quite merciful of Xu Luo not to slap such a peerless demon when they meet.

The jade slip records a total of thirteen ruins, all of which were already explored and set as traps by the five major demonic sects.

Let alone ordinary cultivators, even if Xu Luo and his group went in, it would be very dangerous.

So before this plan begins, Xu Luo needs to go home and tell his family about it.

In addition, I would like to subtly remind our allies, the Heavenly Fire Blazing Beast and the Great Xia Dynasty, as well as the You family.

And so, Xu Luo and his group stayed near the Heavenly Demon Sect for five months.

Xu Luo has thoroughly observed the living environment of the Moonfall Grass to ensure that it can be accurately replicated.

So he transplanted 70% of the Falling Moon Grass and returned to the Xu family alone.

The reason they didn't transplant them all back was because they were afraid that if something went wrong with the remaining 70%, the Falling Moon Grass would become extinct.

After returning to the Xu family, Xu Luo found a suitable place, arranged everything, planted the Falling Moon Grass, and hired someone to guard and care for it, while also collecting Falling Moon Water.

Afterwards, Xu Luo told Xu Qingzhou about the plans of the five major demonic sects and urged him to inform the Xu family members and allies as soon as possible, so that they would stay away from the thirteen ruins.
