My low-key cultivation of immortality was discovered by the emperor in my diary.

Chu Lengyu left the Immortal Capital Cave, preparing to continue her pursuit of Ji Ying.

Although she didn't know where the spatial passage opened by the boundary-breaking talisman would lead, as long as he was still in this realm, she wasn't worried about not being able to find his whereabouts.

The realm of Nascent Soul is beyond what this world can withstand. Ji Ying is rejected and cannot escape into the mortal world. He can only wander in the heavens, and must spare his mind to resist the fierce winds every moment.

If he were willing to give up his divine body and live as a mortal, Chu Lengyu would have to admire his courage.

However, as soon as she stepped out of the cave, she sensed a strong sense of danger.

It turned out that Huang Laomo, who was guarding outside, had already realized that this place was a trap, but he did not choose to leave. Instead, he hid to the side and waited patiently to meet Hong Ling and the others.

In his view, Ji Ying and the others were strong enough to deal with all threats from the lower realm, so he had nothing to worry about and could just wait quietly.

The white crystals here gave him a sense of déjà vu, but he couldn't quite place what they were. He wanted to stay and study them further.

Now, a hint of surprise flashed in Huang Laomo's eyes. He had not expected that the first to appear would not be any of them, but a strange Nascent Soul female cultivator.

This unexpected turn of events delighted him, as a golden opportunity to strike first and launch a surprise attack was right before him.

He grinned maliciously, waved his hands, and dozens of talismans flew towards Chu Lengyu at tricky angles with a whistling sound.

These talismans ignited on their own in the air, instantly transforming into streaks of fire, winding and twisting; ice cones, crystal clear and chilling; and bolts of lightning, booming and flashing.

Fire, ice, and lightning intertwined, like a natural disaster descending, sweeping over Chu Lengyu in an overwhelming manner.

Chu Lengyu teleported, dodging the first wave of attacks.

She stared at Old Demon Huang, a cold glint in her eyes: "So you have accomplices too? Are you also a member of the Parasitic Clan?"

Old Demon Huang laughed loudly, his voice grating: "It seems Ji Chao is dead, and you are the one who set the trap!"

As he spoke, he waved his hands again, and more talismans poured out like a storm, surrounding Chu Lengyu completely.

Chu Lengyu immediately summoned her magic weapon, the Nine Revolutions Profound Light Shield, which appeared in front of her and blocked most of the talisman attacks.

At the same time, she swung her unique sword, and the sword light slashed out like a bolt of lightning, shattering the remaining talismans one by one.

Seeing this, Old Demon Huang muttered incantations and formed hand seals.

The ground suddenly cracked open, and dozens of puppets of various shapes crawled out.

Some of these puppets wielded giant axes, others carried heavy swords, and still others were clad in iron armor. Their eyes gleamed with an eerie green light as they launched a fierce attack on Chu Lengyu.

Chu Lengyu moved gracefully, like a butterfly flitting among flowers, dancing amidst the puppets.

Each flash of sword light was accompanied by a crisp metallic cracking sound or the heavy thud of a puppet falling to the ground.

Before her, those puppets seemed like fragile dolls, completely at her mercy.

However, Chu Lengyu quickly realized that something was wrong.

These puppets appeared to be coated with some kind of strange poison.

Every time her sword strikes, a stream of green poisonous mist spurts from the puppet's wound. The mist is inconspicuous, yet it quietly erodes her protective inner energy.

Chu Lengyu was startled and quickly circulated her magic power to strengthen her protective true energy several times over, barely managing to withstand the corrosive effects of the poisonous mist.

But she knew that if things continued like this, she would eventually run out of magic power and fall into danger.

Just as she was concentrating on dealing with the puppets and the poisonous fog, a swarm of colorful demonic insects suddenly flew out from Huang Laomo's sleeve.

These demonic insects were as fast as lightning, and in the blink of an eye, they had already approached Chu Lengyu.

Their target was not Chu Lengyu's body, but the magical artifacts in her hands and the magical robes she wore.

The insects secreted a potent corrosive liquid from their mouths, a powerful trump card that had always been effective against him.

"Just surrender obediently. Since you know we are a parasitic race, you should know that we love leaving people with a complete corpse." Old Demon Huang laughed arrogantly.

The swarm of demonic insects made Chu Lengyu realize something was wrong. She dispersed the sword light of her Dudu sword to form a sword net, attempting to block the attack of the demonic insects.

But those demonic insects seemed to possess sentience; they hovered nimbly around her, gathering into a cloud of insects that surrounded her layer by layer, slowly searching for an opening.

Chu Lengyu spun around rapidly, her sword flashing like a tapestry, and engaged in a fierce battle with the demonic insects.

However, there were simply too many demonic insects, and she gradually felt overwhelmed, with several small holes appearing in her robes due to corrosion.

She knew that if she continued to defend passively like this, she would eventually fall into Huang Laomo's trap. She couldn't continue like this; she had to finish the battle quickly.

She took a deep breath, her spiritual power surging wildly within her body. The light on the sword grew brighter and brighter, eventually transforming into a massive sword beam. With the power of this brief burst, she swept away all the puppets and demonic insects around her.

At the same time, she offered up a special treasure, the Lotus of Pure Souls.

Although this item is a treasure of the soul, it possesses Buddhist characteristics and is naturally able to suppress all kinds of evil spirits.

Both the poisonous fog and the insect demons were dispelled by the Pure Soul Lotus of Brahma Sound.

Upon seeing this, Old Demon Huang's expression changed slightly.

He only regarded this woman as an ignorant and unsophisticated female cultivator from the lower realm, but he never expected that she could produce such a powerful treasure that could just counter him.
