Be the Hardest Working Demon Cultivator!

Why was there such an odd rule in the Serpent Transformation Cave, none could tell. However, generation after generation of disciples from this Immortal Sect adhered to it strictly, with those who had undergone the transformation and those who had not, never intermingling.

For instance, the disciple in charge of guarding the peach blossom forest had never even once seen Fairy Ji.

Subsequently, following the principle of being paid for his services, the cultivator went to a specific place and delivered a specially made token to Fairy Ji, his reason being that he had found another cultivator and deliberately started an argument with them.

However, Tan Shuchang did not stick around to wait.

Although he had no evidence, he was certain that Fairy Ji had left on purpose.

"A disciple of the Demon Sect’s leader, a Son of the Heavenly Mandate like Long Zhangyuan, the reborn spirit from the unascended body of the Peach Immortal, the transformed disciple of the Serpent Transformation Cave..."

Tan Shuchang mused to himself, it was somewhat too coincidental that these four had departed.

Excluding the unascended body of the Peach Immortal, the other three should not have left.

Fairy Ji had planted a large number of Dharma Seals within this marvelous peach blossom realm, and although Tan Shuchang was not clear about the specifics of the Triple Confirmation Method, nor did he know whether her method of attaining the Cultivation Realm was correct, he was certain that this was a crucial time for Fairy Ji.

Theoretically, Fairy Ji would not leave under any circumstances, as that could likely cause her previous efforts to be completely in vain.

And those two disciples of hers, having hidden in this marvelous peach blossom realm for so many years, were also unlikely to just suddenly depart. Being the son of the owner of the once-mighty slaughter spirit weapon, the Fire Qilin Sword, and hiding in such a secret place surely meant that their enemy was powerful and had not given up on the pursuit after so many years.

Moreover, it was the uncle and nephew leaving together; it was well-known that Ning Shuqi and his master have always been at odds.

Where the middle-aged cultivator said east, Ning Shuqi would definitely choose west. It was utterly impossible for him to obediently listen and leave together in this manner.

Tan Shuchang’s speculations, if probed into deeply, indeed seemed somewhat far-fetched.

But he had not guessed wrong.

At that moment, the disciple of the former Demon Sect’s leader and a Son of the Heavenly Mandate like Ning Shuqi, the reborn spirit from the unascended body of the Peach Immortal, and the transformed disciple Ji Linger of the Serpent Transformation Cave indeed were together.

"Where exactly are we heading?" asked Ning Shuqi, a Son of the Heavenly Mandate like Long Zhangyuan, once impetuous but now displaying a degree of calm and composure.

Standing with the middle-aged cultivator, he no longer repelled him as in the past, but chose to treat him with indifference.

After all, practicing demonic cultivation was often not a choice of their own.

"Don’t worry, I would not harm you for no reason, and moreover, I also intend to make an investment on you," said the reborn spirit, naturally referred to as "Peach Lord".

Still dressed in a pink peach flower robe, yet strangely enough, his terrible injuries had disappeared without even leaving a trace.

"Investment?" Ning Shuqi was taken aback.

Hearing this, the middle-aged cultivator’s gaze flickered for a moment before he asked, "Then you should be able to speak now. As the master of the Peach Blossom Exquisite Realm, why must we flee in haste with you? You should be aware of the formidable enemy we face. Once we leave the Vast Cold State and return to the Zi Xuan Dynasty, we could be killed at any moment."

"Very well, I sought you out because this young friend has an extraordinary destiny, with a piece of the starry sky echoing in response to him from afar. Such a fate undoubtedly signifies utmost reverence between Heaven and Earth. Therefore, I decided to invest in this young friend. As for why I chose you to leave together?

This fellow Daoist should be able to guess, right?" The reborn spirit "Peach Lord" explained with a smile.

"Tan Shuchang?" The middle-aged cultivator hesitated slightly.

For he was the only one who had posed a significant threat to him recently. Notably, the age of the individual added an element of the inconceivable to the threat.

"Exactly," the reborn spirit "Peach Lord" nodded, while a hint of fear inevitably flashed in his eyes.

The ghost from the Land of Yin and Darkness, known as "Master Peach," was capable of suppressing him, and his strength was undoubtedly formidable.

Although Tan Shuchang had managed to deal with the ghost easily, it was at the last moment, he acted, destroying the Token in the ghost’s hand at a great cost.

Since the very moment he encountered the ghost, Tan Shuchang had consistently dominated the fight against it.

Despite witnessing the ghost’s myriad mysterious divine skills, which made his scalp tingle, it couldn’t even touch the hem of Tan Shuchang’s robe.

Especially, the strike that caused its body to split open had him utterly baffled about how Tan Shuchang managed to achieve it.

"Fellow Daoist, you may not know that this individual’s destiny is bound by an extremely sinister and evil force, and up till now, Tan Shuchang is the only one who can be considered capable.

The power he holds is far more brutal than you can imagine, far surpassing even the most malicious power derived from the cultivation of demonic techniques," said the reborn spirit "Peach Lord," feeling something and looking in a certain direction. Simultaneously, the middle-aged cultivator also looked over.

They saw an immensely large black snake, moving at a speed that seemed slow to the naked eye but was in fact extremely fast.

The size of the black snake was terrifying, even famous among the Mountain-Sea Beasts—the Thunder Dragon of Shuize Mountain was only half as big.

"Fairy Ji, how did your inquiry go?" the middle-aged man politely bowed his fists and asked.

Among them, he and his nephew, Ning Shuqi, were required to remain hidden due to uncertain circumstances; and the true master of the Peach Blossom Exquisite Realm, because of some affairs, also could not show his face.

Thus, calculating carefully, only the black snake could move freely.

The Cave of Serpent Transformation had such a strange rule, similar to once transformed, the identity of a fellow disciple from the serpent caves was no longer recognized. However, the cultivators within the Zi Xuan Dynasty recognized it.

Moreover, not just the cultivators, but most of the elite acknowledged it as well.

Therefore, even though Fairy Ji’s appearance was terrifying, as soon as local cultivators and elite confirmed she was from the Cave of Serpent Transformation, they greeted her with enthusiastic welcoming attitudes.

Even a disciple from the Disciples of the Sword Mountain who happened to pass by took the initiative to chat with Fairy Ji for a bit and even invited her to visit the Sword Mountain.

"The righteous strategy of Sword Mountain has already started," Ji Linger said, her tone turning somewhat strange afterward: "The Son of the Heavenly Mandate chosen by Sword Mountain had descended from the mountain not long ago, but before he could establish a great reputation, he nearly met his doom."
