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

With a flash of sword light, Chu Lengyu once again pressed on to the fleeing figure, this time appearing even more composed.

On the other hand, Old Demon Huang was already running out of spiritual energy and was injured. He didn't even dare to use the Blood Burning Secret Technique, which he relied on to escape.

Chu Lengyu's attacks became increasingly fierce, and Huang Laomo's defenses gradually crumbled under her repeated bombardments.

Shocking wounds began to appear on Huang Laomo's body. His face turned pale, and a trace of fear flashed in his eyes.

He couldn't accept that he, a demon who had roamed the upper realm for many years, would be defeated by a Nascent Soul female cultivator from the lower realm.

Chu Lengyu's sword light once again slashed through the sky, and this time, it struck Huang Laomo's chest with unerring accuracy.

A shocking bloody hole appeared in Huang Laomo's chest, from which blood gushed out.

His body flew backward like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily to the ground, shattering a mountain range and stirring up a cloud of gravel and dust.

Chu Lengyu slowly walked towards Huang Laomo and said coldly, "I know you have the talent to parasitize the five elements, but I killed Ji Chao. You can try it too."

Upon hearing this, a hint of despair flashed in Old Demon Huang's eyes.

He had indeed considered relying on his clan's innate secret techniques, hoping to have a trump card to protect himself. However, he never expected that this female cultivator from the lower realm seemed to have already seen through everything and had a countermeasure.

His body began to tremble, and he couldn't stop regretting it.

They focused all their attention on preparing for internal strife, meticulously crafting magical weapons and schemes against Hong Ling, Ji Ying, and others, but overlooked the true danger of this journey to open up a new world.

I still remember, before I left the clan's territory by taking the teleportation array.

The high priest had specifically sent someone to warn them that venturing into the new territory was fraught with unknowns and dangers.

Because these remote little worlds lack the guidance and rules of the upper realm, they grow wildly, and it is impossible to predict what strange things they will give birth to or what kind of dangers they may hide.

Even a powerful tribe like the Plague God suffered greatly and paid a heavy price in the process of opening up the lower realm.

The Fairy Qingying, who once beheaded the Demon Lord with a single sword and became famous in one battle, was an unparalleled powerhouse who fell from the collapsing small world.

Her power is beyond comprehension.

Of course, the Plague Clan has also discovered special secret realms and the inheritances of powerful figures within the smaller realms.

This is why the clan established the rule of distributing special statues of the plague god in order to keep track of the dynamics of the lower realm and respond in a timely manner.

But with the statue in Ji Ying's hands and the Star Shuttle in his own, Old Demon Huang thought it was a perfect balance of power, but he never expected that such a vicious person would suddenly appear out of nowhere.

Thinking of this, Old Demon Huang couldn't help but secretly speculate that, given their calculated strategy, Ji Ying and the others might have already suffered a great loss at the hands of this female cultivator.

At the same time, Huang Laomo also knew that he had nowhere to escape and that the other party would not let him go.

He stood up, trying to ease the tension, and said, "Fellow Daoist, I think we can have a proper talk. Why must we face each other in a life-or-death struggle?"

"You only want to talk about peace now? Don't you think it's too late?" Chu Lengyu hovered in mid-air, her face as cold as frost.

She lifted the array plate and threw out the array flags again.

brush brush --

The Star Destroyer Array rose up with a roar, enveloping this world. This time, Old Demon Huang stood still and did not try to escape.

"A fifth-order grand formation..." A clear light appeared in his eyes. He squinted and examined it for a moment before muttering to himself.

With his profound knowledge, he not only glimpsed some of the mysteries of the Star God Annihilation Array, but also keenly perceived that although the array's restrictions had been reassembled after a great battle, it had not yet returned to its peak state, and there were some weaknesses hidden within it.

Huang Laomo secretly guessed that this must be Ji Ying's doing.

Only he, a Nascent Soul stage expert, could contend with a fifth-order grand formation.

As for Kuangdao and Jinlei, they might be able to force their way out if they disregard losses, but Hongling... is probably doomed and has perished.

Thinking of this, a complex look flashed in Old Demon Huang's eyes.

He bowed to Chu Lengyu, his words carrying a hint of flattery: "Fellow Daoist, my real name is Ji Huang, and I am indeed a member of the Parasitic Clan. I have come to this realm to explore on the orders of my clan."

After saying that, he reached out and slapped his hand, and a storage bag fell from his waist and slowly floated towards Chu Lengyu.

Old Demon Huang continued, "If I have offended you in any way before, I hope you will forgive me. Consider this storage bag as a small token of my apology."

However, Chu Lengyu didn't even glance at it, but simply waved the long sword in her hand lightly.

A tiny spatial rift suddenly appeared, instantly swallowing the storage bag and disappearing without a trace.

After reaching the Nascent Soul stage, she was able to grasp the basics of the Dao of Space.

Moreover, with the Nine Cauldrons' assistance, her understanding of the Dao of Space is quite profound; she just needs some time to fully comprehend it.

Looking at the vanished storage bag, Old Demon Huang's lips curled into a slightly strange smile, his words carrying a hint of sarcasm: "Hehe, fellow Daoist, your wealth is extraordinary, so it's understandable that you don't like it."

"This time, is this all the parasitic clan you've sent?" Chu Lengyu's tone carried a hint of barely perceptible sarcasm, but she deliberately avoided mentioning the exact number to prevent her guess from being wrong and underestimating the other side's numbers.

She pondered to herself, since Old Demon Huang was guarding outside, there was a high possibility that two or three members of the Parasite Clan were hiding in the shadows, or even in the heavens.

These parasitic creatures are ever-changing and act in secret, so we must be wary of them.

Old Demon Huang sighed softly, observing Chu Lengyu's expression as he slowly said, "Alas, the Star Shuttle can only carry a limited number of people at a time, so we can only bring this many. Besides, before we came, we thought it was a sure thing."

He was already somewhat certain that the other party was obviously unaware of the existence of the Star Shuttle, and was probably a native who was trapped in this world and had never been in contact with the starry sky.

However, he put on a show of concern for Chu Lengyu and kindly reminded her, "The Nascent Soul sword cultivator leading this team is named Ji Ying. Fellow Daoist, please be careful. He carries a statue of the Plague God. This statue can not only contact the mother nest of the Parasitic Clan at any time, but also summon the power of the Plague God. Its power is extraordinary."

Upon hearing this, Chu Lengyu couldn't help but glance at him sideways, her gaze carrying a hint of scrutiny.

Seeing this, Old Demon Huang shook his head slightly, a faint smile on his face: "Fellow Daoist, there is no need to be so nervous. Although I was born into the Parasitic Clan, I have always been devoted to the study of the various arts of cultivation and rarely participate in combat. Everything I have said is true, and there is no need for me to deceive you."

"Besides, opening up the lower realm is just a task. If it succeeds, it will be Ji Ying's achievement, and if it fails, I will suffer no loss."

"Fellow Daoist's strength is formidable. To be able to cultivate to such a level in such a small world is truly remarkable. I sincerely admire you."

"It's really not worth making an enemy of a fellow cultivator with extraordinary potential in the late Nascent Soul stage for a trivial clan mission!"

Old Demon Huang continued speaking earnestly, his demeanor completely unguarded, as if he were revealing his true feelings.

Chu Lengyu naturally understood that this Old Demon Huang was cunning and unpredictable, and his words should not be easily believed.

But regarding the statue of the God of Plague in Ji Ying's possession, even if the other party might have deliberately revealed it to use her as a tool to kill, she still silently kept it in mind.

The Parasite Clan is incredibly powerful, and the Plague God's strength is unfathomable, far surpassing those at the ninth rank.

Chu Lengyu knew that it would be best to avoid unnecessary conflict with the parasites.

The opposing nest would not likely mobilize a large force and wage war for a remote and desolate lower realm.

Seeing that Chu Lengyu remained silent, seemingly deep in thought, Huang Laomo noticed that she was pondering something.

He smiled slightly and continued calmly, "If you, fellow Daoist, can show leniency this time, I will certainly leave this place immediately, find another secluded place to cultivate in seclusion for a hundred years, and never set foot here again."

"Furthermore, to show my sincerity, I will tell you a secret as a way of repaying you."
