Am I not a nascent saint demon cultivator?

A moment later, at Biyun Mountain.

Buzz!

Unbeknownst to anyone, the protective array around the mountain quietly opened a crack, allowing Xu Yun to secretly return to the place.

After harvesting another batch of banner spirits, Xu Yun quickly returned in his second-tier puppet and learned through the methods he had left behind that nothing unusual had happened at the Biyun Lin family's place.

Even the battle he had fought with Long Yueming nearby went unnoticed, and no one disturbed his already sealed cave.

Thanks to this, Xu Yun quietly returned to the cave and withdrew his fake body, pretending that nothing had happened.

"This was truly a very rewarding experience."

Xu Yun sat cross-legged and couldn't help but let out a heartfelt sigh. Not to mention that his Myriad Spirits Banner had gained a batch of banner spirits, he had also acquired a lot of resources from the Tianmanglong family's treasury.

There is even a set of main ingredients for refining Foundation Establishment Pills. If you happen to meet a trustworthy cultivator and happen to have the Foundation Establishment Pill materials that he does not have, you can immediately find an alchemist to start refining the pills.

Unfortunately, there is no suitable candidate yet, but that does not stop Xu Yun from being overjoyed. Moreover, there is a large amount of spirit stones, various rare and precious natural treasures, cultivation techniques and secret arts.

To put it bluntly, if Xu Yun were to take out all of these things, he might be able to create a rather powerful cultivation family.

However, he didn't have that idea.

"Of course, in addition to the Xuanling Fruit, I also obtained two second-tier puppets this time, which greatly increased my combat power."

At this point, Xu Yun had a thought and summoned the light screen, where ripples appeared.

Immediately afterwards, a flash of light appeared, and a humanoid puppet with a metallic sheen appeared before Xu Yun, standing imposingly.

Holding an iron halberd, he stood motionless, yet his body emanated the aura of a second-tier cultivator, clearly no less than that of a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

"Not bad, not bad. I now have two second-tier puppets, one of which can even fly. Even without Tianlin Daoist's assistance, I am confident that I can face a Foundation Establishment cultivator and even injure him."

Looking at the second-tier humanoid puppet in front of him, Xu Yun couldn't help but show a satisfied expression, feeling a surge of excitement.

With the blessing of his divine sense, it can fully exert the power of a second-tier puppet. In terms of energy, in addition to magic power, there are also spirit stones that can be supplied.

That is why Xu Yun was confident that he could injure even a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

This is undoubtedly something to be proud of for a Qi Refining cultivator. Only the geniuses of those great sects can do this. Now, Xu Yun, an unknown nobody, can do it. How can he not be proud?

"Now, in terms of combat strength, I can handle the dangers in most parts of the Yuan Kingdom, and I should have a much greater chance of collecting the remaining Foundation Establishment Pill materials and even the Foundation Establishment Pills themselves."

Xu Yun stroked his chin. The two second-tier puppets, plus the remnant soul of Daoist Tianlin who had recovered 30-40% of his combat power, were enough to rival a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

With such combat strength, they might not be able to roam freely in the Yuan Kingdom, but they could at least be confident in handling most dangers.

Therefore, Xu Yun plans to be a bit more aggressive in collecting materials, perhaps only in this way can he obtain the Foundation Establishment Pill more quickly and thus break through his cultivation level.

Buzz!

Just then, a fluctuation came from outside the cave, causing Xu Yun to raise an eyebrow.

He already knew what the fluctuation was through his divine sense, so he immediately took out the array token, opened a gap, and soon a sound transmission talisman fell into his palm.

As Xu Yun infused his magic power into it, Yao Lin's voice rang out from within.

"Fellow Daoist Xu, your husband and Fellow Daoist Wen have returned. Please come out and greet them."

After speaking, Xu Yun stretched his limbs and slowly left the cave, heading towards the foot of Biyun Mountain with Yao Lin, who was waiting outside.

At the entrance, Lin Zuibai and Wen Lingyu walked in with slightly dazed expressions, seemingly still troubled by something.

"Brother Lin, Sister Wen has had a long journey. I wonder if the Tianmanglong family still intends to cause trouble?"

Xu Yun approached the two men and bowed respectfully. Although he already knew the reason, he had no intention of revealing it.

Upon hearing this, Lin Zuibai couldn't help but show a relieved smile, shaking his head and saying, "What's the trouble? From now on, I'm afraid the Tianmanglong family will no longer exist."

Upon hearing this, everyone else was taken aback, and Xu Yun, on the surface, also remained calm, revealing no flaw whatsoever.

After Lin Zuibai and the others returned and sat down in the hall, recounting the information they had received, everyone suddenly realized what had happened.

The protective array of Tianmang Peak was broken, and the interior was in complete disarray, with corpses strewn everywhere, as if it had been plundered.

At first, Lin Zuibai was somewhat incredulous when he heard the news, but after witnessing it for himself, he accepted it even though he still couldn't understand it.

At the same time, he was also extremely excited. This was a wonderful surprise. The Tianmanglong family, which he had thought was a calamity, was destroyed just like that.

Furthermore, as the first person to know the specifics, he immediately took many measures and even sent people to seize some of the Tianmanglong family's resource points, which earned him a considerable profit.

"I am truly grateful to Brother Xu and Sister Wen for their help this time."

After expressing his feelings, Lin Zuibai looked at Xu Yun and the other person with a solemn expression and bowed.

"Brother Lin, please don't be like that. I didn't actually do anything."

Wen Lingyu quickly waved her hand, a slightly embarrassed look on her face. After all, due to the sudden destruction of the Tianmanglong family, she had not been of any use.

Even in seizing the remaining territory of the Tianmanglong family, it was all thanks to Lin Zuibai's negotiations with other family forces that he didn't play much of a role.

Xu Yun did not accept the gift, since on the surface he was just staying at Biyun Mountain and did almost nothing.

"Please don't do this, gentlemen. Your presence here to help my Biyun Lin family is already the greatest assistance you can give me."

Lin Zuibai shook his head, his expression solemn and dignified, and said in a deep voice, "And I will not go back on my word regarding the reward I mentioned earlier."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Zuibai immediately waved his hand, throwing out two streaks of light from his sleeve that landed in front of Xu Yun and the other person.

Xu Yun reached out and took it, finding a wooden box inside. At Lin Zuibai's prompting, he opened it directly, and a rich medicinal fragrance wafted out.

He looked closely and saw a blood-red fruit lying inside the wooden box, its veins intertwined to form a mark resembling a heart.

Furthermore, Xu Yun sensed abundant and powerful qi and blood within it, which even transformed into a tangible red halo that rippled outwards, appearing incredibly mystical.

It was none other than the Blood Spirit Fruit, a medicinal herb with a history of two hundred years.

"This... Big Brother..."

Wen Lingyu held the reward in her hands, her face filled with complex emotions, feeling unworthy of it.

However, just as she was about to say something, Lin Zuibai waved his hand forcefully and said, "Just accept it. Don't say anything more. Aren't we good friends who have gone through thick and thin together?"

Upon hearing this, Wen Lingyu and Xu Yun could no longer refuse, so they could only thank them and accept the gift.
