The Black Lotus Reborn: The Entire Sect Kneels and Begs for My Forgiveness

That half-human demon beast already had a human head, so naturally, its head contained some information about humans.

It had heard that powerful human cultivators liked to have three wives and four concubines, as well as Daoist partners.

Given how powerful Long Jiuqing is, it's only natural that he has several human women.

"?"

Ye Yunong suppressed her impulse and did not cleave the half-human beast's head open with her sword. She was very curious about what was inside the half-human beast's brain.

When did she say she was Long Jiuqing's woman?

She and Long Jiuqing were not familiar with each other at all; she was just using Long Jiuqing to make a show of force.

The half-human, half-beast thought it had guessed correctly, and knelt down on the ground with a thud, kowtowing even more precisely than the most devout pilgrims.

"My lord, spare my life! I beg you, please don't tell Lord Long what you heard today."

The half-human, half-beast realized how naive it had been. It thought that by hiding in the Misty Valley, Long Jiuqing would be unable to find it. Little did it know that even Long Jiuqing's women could find it so easily. It was filled with despair.

The half-human monster hurriedly ordered its henchmen to bring over everything they had previously looted.

"My lord, these are all gifts from your humble servant."

Ye Yunong glanced at the mountain of spirit stones and spirit bags in front of her, cleared her throat,

"Since you're so filial, I can keep it from Long Jiuqing. However, you must do one more thing for Long Jiuqing."

Ye Yunong glanced around. She had noticed this when she first entered the Misty Valley. There were over a thousand monsters in the valley at this moment, a considerable number and scale. Even if she wanted to kill them, it would take her a whole day and night.

Ye Yunong was not a demonic cultivator; she did not have a thirst for blood.

But she couldn't just let so many monsters go.

These monsters were extremely ferocious, and they ate and killed many people along the way.

This can be seen from the spirit bags and spirit stones they offer.

"My lord, please give your orders."

The half-human, half-beast dared not utter a single word of dissent.

"Go two hundred miles ahead, there is a mountain called Wanglian Mountain."

There will be some ascetics there.

Among them were a group of cultivators dressed in red, and a female cultivator in blue named Lu Jinxin.

All you have to do is find them, lead your monster minions, and kill them.

You may kill any disciple in red.

Except for the female disciple named Lu Jinxin, no one else wearing a blue Taoist robe is allowed to be killed.

However, if anyone tries to stop you from killing, then take them all down with you.

After Ye Yunong finished speaking, she showed a look of impatience.

"Get out of here right now before I change my mind."

The half-human, half-beast felt as if he had been granted a pardon. He didn't dare to raise his head and led a group of beasts in a wild run, not daring to look back even once.

They only breathed a sigh of relief after they ran out of Misty Valley.

As for why Long Jiuqing's woman ordered them to kill that group of red-clad people, the half-human demon beasts didn't dare to ask.

Does Long Jiuqing need a reason to kill demons or people?

No need!

The half-human beast felt a pang of heartache when it thought of the spirit stones and spirit pouches it had just been forced to offer.

Fortunately, they will soon be able to make up for their losses, as long as they kill those people from Wanglian Mountain... The half-human demon beast let out a cacophony of laughter and led a group of demon beasts toward Wanglian Mountain, which Ye Yunong had mentioned.

Inside the Earth Immortal's Cave, Ye Yunong listened intently to the sounds outside. Only when she heard the group of demonic beasts leave Misty Valley did she dare to loosen her grip on the Langya Sword.

She leaned against the cave wall, panting heavily.

"That was close. Fortunately, that half-human beast hadn't fully evolved into a human yet and didn't understand the truth that the human heart is the most treacherous thing."

More than 1000 demonic beasts—let alone Ye Yunong now, even Ye Yunong in her Golden Core stage in the past wouldn't have been able to handle them.

Especially that half-human demon beast, its cultivation level is definitely above that of a Golden Core cultivator, and it is probably only one Great Dao Realm away from its master, the Azure Lotus Venerable.

"I didn't expect Long Jiuqing to be so lethal."

At this moment, Long Jiuqing wasn't even a Heavenly Demon of the Myriad Realms yet; she was merely a fledgling demon.

Ye Yunong felt a surge of emotion.

Having driven away the demonic beasts, Ye Yunong now had ample time to take possession of this Earth Immortal's Cave.

Only then did Ye Yunong have the opportunity to carefully examine the entire view of the Earth Immortal Cave before her.

First, there's the entrance.

The cave dwelling is located in a very secluded place, and there is a rather mysterious defensive formation at the entrance.

Although it has been in disrepair for many years, the defensive formation has not failed and can be activated by placing a mid-grade spirit stone.

Ye Yunong arranged the spirit stones, and the defensive formation was activated.

"This defensive formation is strong enough to withstand attacks from a large number of level four or five demonic beasts, and even a group of Foundation Establishment disciples couldn't break through it."

Once Ye Yunong has free time, with a few minor improvements, it can even withstand attacks from a high-level demonic beast and a Golden Core cultivator.

"This must be the cave dwelling where that earth immortal stayed in his early years."

As Ye Yunong continued walking, she unexpectedly discovered three advanced Qi-gathering arrays.

Ye Yunong's eyes lit up.

Generally speaking, a basic Qi-gathering array can increase spiritual energy by about 100%, which means that a person's cultivation speed can be increased by 100%.

If it's an intermediate-level Qi-gathering array, the cultivation speed can be increased threefold.

An advanced Qi-gathering array can increase a person's cultivation speed by five times.

There are actually three such advanced Qi-gathering arrays here. No wonder Lu Jinxin's cultivation speed increased by leaps and bounds after returning from Misty Valley.

"At the time, I was completely kept in the dark. I thought that my talent was inferior to hers and that I could not catch up no matter how I cultivated. My confidence was shaken when I was forming my core, and I was almost tempted by my inner demons."

Ye Yunong thought of herself before her rebirth and couldn't help but shake her head.

After discovering the defensive array and three advanced Qi-gathering arrays, Ye Yunong continued her search within the Earth Immortal's Cave.

There were no spirit stones or treasures in the Earth Immortal's cave, presumably because the Earth Immortal took them with him when he ascended to heaven.

However, the number of spirit bags and spirit stones that the half-human demon beast had previously offered was also quite large.

Ye Yunong counted the spirit stones; most were low-grade, with over two hundred being mid-grade, and the spirit bag also contained some low- to mid-grade spirit treasures.

After throwing all of these into her Chaos Ring, Ye Yunong continued walking into the cave.

This cave dwelling is somewhat like the mansion of a wealthy family that Ye Yunong visited in modern times.

The outermost area is the training ground, then the living quarters, and the innermost area should be the treasure room.

The entire cave dwelling is roughly the size of a commercial apartment with an interior area of ​​about 200 square meters.

Because the immortal had ascended to heaven many years ago, most of the things inside had turned into powder.

However, some things are still preserved, such as some Taoist techniques stored in the innermost treasure room.

These are all techniques that the Earth Immortals cultivated in their early years, numbering about one or two hundred. Some are carved in stone, while others are on jade slips.

These are also the things that Ye Yunong values ​​most on this trip.

She wanted to find a method related to cultivating the Chaos Spiritual Root.

With Lao Wang there, Ye Yunong searched the first and second floors of the Hidden Dao Pavilion, but the Biluo Sect was still too small and there was really no cultivation method for the Chaos Spiritual Root.

Since Ye Yunong began cultivating the Chaos Spiritual Root, she only possesses the Chaos Three Pure Ones Technique and the Mountain-Shaking Fist, which is far too few.

Ye Yunong began her search.

A day passed, and Ye Yunong tossed a jade slip aside and shook her head.

"This earth immortal should have three spiritual roots, and the Taoist methods he cultivates are very suitable for Xuanji."

To be able to successfully ascend to immortality using only three spiritual roots, this Earth Immortal must have endured countless hardships.

Ye Yunong muttered to herself, somewhat disappointed.

In one day, she read through most of the jade slips and stone carvings in the Earth Immortal's Cave.

With only three left, Ye Yunong had already given up hope.

She looked at another one.

She shook her head and picked up the second to last one.

Ye Yunong casually infused a wisp of true energy into the jade slip.

A moment later, Ye Yunong's eyes lit up.
