Chapter 181: Abnormalities in the Lingyun Demon Cave (Three-in-One Grand Chapter)

Spider.

Lin Chao wore a black robe, and a powerful aura emanated from his body.

Feng Sidao looked at the crowd with a smile on his face: "The message from the family has arrived; it is time for me to leave."

Beside him, the President of Spider had a look of worry in his eyes; he looked at Feng Sidao and opened his mouth to speak several times, only to stop himself.

Feng Sidao looked at the President of Spider and sighed softly: "I will do my best to report the situation in Ge'en City to those above."

Feng Sidao also felt helpless.

He knew that an abnormality had occurred in the Demon Cave near Ge'en City.

For Ge'en City, this was a huge blow.

However, Jing Country at this moment was not exactly peaceful either, with numerous internal factions.

Moreover, the number of Transcendental personnel was far inferior to the demons, and many places were unable to look after themselves.

It was difficult to spare other powerful Transcendental to look after Ge'en City.

Feng Sidao had received news that the high-level officials of Jing Country had already sent people deep into the Demon Cave to communicate with the demon race.

Generally speaking, there would not be too many problems with the abnormalities in the various Demon Caves this time.

But for a remote small city like Ge'en City, it was hard to say.

"Senior Wang, if you can hold on for a while longer, perhaps those above will reach a new agreement with the Demon Cave," Feng Sidao could only offer this consolation.

"Good." Upon receiving this news, the President of Spider felt his spirits lift.

However, there was still deep worry in his eyes.

He knew that even if the high-level officials of Jing Country reached an agreement with the Demon Cave, it was unknown what would happen once the orders from above were passed down.

Furthermore, the current Demon Emperor of the demon race was not a true Eighth Rank powerhouse, but a pseudo-Demon Emperor.

These Demon Caves might not necessarily listen to the Demon Emperor's orders.

Apart from those strategic regions, it was very likely that changes would occur in remote areas like Ge'en City.

"This is a Supernatural item made by our Feng Family, a Ghost Pill; after throwing it, it can emit Ghost Qi, which can briefly scare away the demon race."

As he spoke, Feng Sidao took out seven pitch-black pills.

"Many thanks, Young Master Feng." The President of Spider was genuinely grateful.

"I cannot be of much help, I can only do my meager best," Feng Sidao sighed.

The good mood from contracting the Ghost had dissipated quite a bit.

At this moment, Feng Sidao's gaze turned to Lin Chao: "Brother Black Robe, if you have the opportunity to come to Feng Capital in the future, you must look for me; I will take you to see the beautiful scenery of Feng Capital."

As Feng Sidao spoke, a jade tablet landed in Lin Chao's hand.

"Good," Lin Chao replied.

Feng Sidao did not say anything more.

He gave the jade tablet to Black Robe simply because he valued him and wanted to form a good connection.

After finishing, Feng Sidao and several attendants left by private plane.

Beside him, the President of Spider's expression became solemn: "Everyone should already be aware of the matter regarding the Lingyun Demon Cave.

From today onwards, our people in Spider will arrange for personnel to patrol the surroundings of the Lingyun Demon Cave at fixed times every day.

Who wants to participate, and who wants to withdraw?"

Spider was the only Transcendental organization in Ge'en City.

However, this Transcendental organization was spontaneously formed by civilians; it did not belong to the official authorities and only had a cooperative relationship with them.

That was why the President of Spider brought up the matter of staying or leaving at this moment, to respect the opinions of others.

The Transcendental present looked at each other with varying expressions, and no one spoke first.

The President of Spider spoke at this time: "If you have other matters that are delaying you, or if you have family members to take care of, those who want to leave should speak first."

He did not want those who stayed to put too much psychological pressure on those who wanted to leave.

"President, I... want to leave. My wife passed away from illness, and my daughter only has me as a father," a burly man stepped forward with a look of shame on his face.

The expression on the President of Spider's face did not change: "Children are our future; the choice you made is very meaningful."

"President, I..."

Suddenly, several more people withdrew.

The entire Spider was not large in scale, with the number of Transcendental totaling less than five hundred.

Now, thirty-seven Transcendental chose to leave.

Lin Chao stood to the side, his heart calm, yet he felt some admiration.

Those who left had their own reasons, and naturally, Lin Chao would not maliciously mock them.

Those who stayed were also commendable.

After all, these Transcendental before him could be considered true big shots in Ge'en City.

However, placed in the entirety of Jing Country, they only belonged to the bottom tier of Transcendental.

Most bottom-tier Transcendental still possessed a sense of responsibility.

As long as the bottom tier does not collapse, Jing Country has hope.

Watching those who left, the remaining Transcendental did not say anything.

At this time, Dun Shan looked at Lin Chao with a look of surprise on his face: "Black Robe, I thought you were going to leave."

Black Robe had only recently joined Spider, and at a glance, he was clearly a Transcendental from elsewhere.

Such Transcendental had no fixed place of residence and generally preferred to consider their own interests.

Moreover, he did not live in Ge'en City, and he had no friends or family here.

The sense of responsibility in his heart would also be weakened.

The black robe's long garment moved with the wind: "I haven't finished reading the materials in the Spider underground library yet, so I won't be leaving."

To them, a Demon Cave possessing a Sixth Tier Demon Commander is indeed very dangerous, one could even call it terrifying.

For Lin Chao, however, it is nothing.

Moreover, he has already dispatched Hong Yin, leading a group of Ghosts to the Lingyun Demon Cave.

He has long coveted the demons inside the Lingyun Demon Cave.

Beside him, the elderly face of the Spider President revealed a smile as he looked at Dun Shan: "I told you long ago that knowledge is power.

Look at Hei Pao; he is perhaps not even thirty years old, yet his strength already surpasses yours."

Dun Shan immediately retorted: "I want to recognize those characters, but those characters don't recognize me."

"Alright, now that the people staying behind have been confirmed, I will begin arranging the patrol matters.

If you have any requests or objections, you may bring them up," the Spider President said, changing the subject.

The threat of the Demon Cave is close at hand.

The probability of casualties occurring during this patrol is very high.

However, the entire Ge'en City has provided for them for so long, so they should also contribute their own strength to Ge'en City.

Lin Chao spoke up at this moment: "President, I would like to patrol at night."

During the day, he still has to attend school, so he only has the opportunity to patrol at night.

"Why don't you have time during the day? You didn't also find a job and work during the day, did you?" Dun Shan teased from the side.

The atmosphere in Spider also became much more relaxed.

Lin Chao smiled without saying a word.

Beside him, the Spider President nodded: "No problem."

Hei Pao is, after all, one of the top three powerhouses in all of Spider, so his role is still very significant.

The Spider President would naturally respect Lin Chao's opinion.

The arrangement session lasted for an hour or two before it finally ended.

Bai Chong stretched and said: "Hei Pao, we have to go on patrol in a few days. I don't know if we'll be able to come back alive, so why don't we go out and have some fun together? Brother knows a place where the girls are simply... tsk tsk..."

Lin Chao was speechless: "If I remember correctly, you occasionally also help the City Hall crack down on that kind of trade?"

"A person must separate public and private matters!" Bai Chong spread his hands. "The ones I crack down on are all the semi-coerced ones.

Those who are voluntary are mostly pitiful people, or those who want a better life.

Me going to patronize their business can also be considered a mutual agreement."

Lin Chao waved his hand; he naturally would not go.

Of course, he didn't say anything about Bai Chong's thoughts either.

The world is so complex; it is not just black and white.

Beside them, Dun Shan became interested: "Bai Chong, every time you finish a mission, you go to... a brothel to have some fun. Don't you save any money or anything?"

To show that he was cultured, Dun Shan specifically used the word "brothel."

"I have no relatives or friends; I have no mother, no wife, and certainly no children.

What would I save money for? To buy a house or something?

If I die one day, I won't even have an heir.

Wouldn't this money just end up benefiting someone else?"

Bai Chong was very carefree, a lone wolf.

Lin Chao stood to the side, watching the two talk, without participating.

"Hei Pao, you probably don't have any family either, right?

Why keep the money? Why not come and have some fun with me?" Bai Chong continued to try to drag Lin Chao into it.

"You should ask Dun Shan," Lin Chao responded casually.

"No fun," Bai Chong waved his hand.

If it were elsewhere, Bai Chong naturally wouldn't speak to Third Tier Transcendental like Dun Shan and Hei Pao in this manner.

But this is Spider, and their relationship is different.

Hei Pao watched Bai Chong, bid them farewell, and turned to disappear into the night.

Dun Shan looked at Lin Chao's figure and sighed: "Hei Pao is too self-disciplined; he's like a battle maniac."

Bai Chong nodded: "I always feel like he has some kind of invincible enemy."

"It's a pity our strength is too weak.

Otherwise, no matter what, I'd help Hei Pao kill his enemy, damn it," Dun Shan laughed loudly.

"The Awakening Day is almost here. Since you want to understand the Supernatural, I will briefly explain it to you.

The Supernatural is divided into the Ancient Method and the New Method.

The Ancient Method follows the path of cultivating oneself.

The New Method follows the path of... combining with demons.

However, I don't know when it started, but the world changed drastically.

Problems appeared with the Ancient Method: the first problem is that the Ancient Method cannot break through to the Third Tier, and even if one breaks through to the Third Tier, they will go insane and become a murderer; the second problem is that the Ancient Method cannot step into the Seventh Tier.

It is precisely because of this that the Ancient Method was gradually phased out.

Today's Transcendental all cultivate the New Method.

The cultivation of the New Method requires hunting a large number of demons, and it is precisely because of this that the conflict between humans and the Demon race has grown more and more intense."

In the classroom, the elderly history teacher was droning on and on during the lesson.

The students below were all listening with great interest.

Knowledge regarding Transcendental matters was very novel to these young boys and girls.

"Teacher, at what tier do Transcendentals learn to fly?"

"Third Tier. The Third Tier is a watershed."

"At what tier can a Transcendental become invisible?"

"At what tier can a Transcendental see through things?"

The questions gradually began to become abnormal.

Beside him, Fang Yuan lowered his voice and said, "These people have no ambition at all.

Once you become a Transcendental, you're still going to go invisible and see through things?

With the charm of a Transcendental, wouldn't beauties just throw themselves at you?"

Lin Chao smiled.

He thought of Bai Chong.

When Bai Chong went out to gather inspiration, he even had to pay for it.

Fang Yuan muttered, but then he thought of something and continued, "Feng Yan, I got some inside information.

You must not go to the suburbs during this time, and neither should your family.

I heard that monsters are running rampant outside the suburbs."

"Mm, thanks." Lin Chao knew that Fang Yuan was referring to the issue of the recent disturbances in the Demon Cave.

"Sigh, when I become a Transcendental, I will definitely kill all the monsters in the Demon Cave." A resolute expression appeared on Fang Yuan's youthful face.

"If you kill all the monsters, what will the people who come after you rely on to break through?" Lin Chao opened his notebook and wrote something by hand.

"What you say makes sense." Fang Yuan tilted his head, seriously considering Lin Chao's words, "I think we could raise the monsters like pets."

Beside them, a little girl turned her head: "Fang Yuan, you are too cruel."

Fang Yuan was immediately unconvinced and started arguing with the little girl.

Lin Chao quietly used his pen to note something down.

Nowadays, he had already contracted a batch of Ghosts.

Even for Ghosts, if they want to live more comfortably in the human world, money is still indispensable.

What Lin Chao was doing now was preparing to use his talent for Investment and Wealth Management to rake in some money.

When you are in the midst of school days, they feel exceptionally long.

But many years after graduation, one day you will suddenly realize that time in the past passed by so quickly.

In college, at the beginning, you would still say: The college entrance exam is coming up soon, I'm so excited.

When you first graduate, at the beginning, you would still say: Graduation season is coming up soon, I'm so nervous.

Later on, there was no later on.

"Feng Yan, do you want to go to the internet cafe together?" At the school gate, Fang Yuan was inviting Lin Chao.

"Not going." Lin Chao carried his schoolbag and refused directly.

At night, it was his turn to patrol.

"What a pity, there are quite a few girls going together.

Liu Yuan is among them too, and she even wanted you to come over and teach her how to play games."

"You guys go ahead and play." Lin Chao didn't say anything more.

Perhaps the Transcendentals in the Spider were willing to stay behind just to protect this beauty.

Those who left perhaps just wanted to protect the beauty they cherished even better.

Of course, human hearts cannot all be that beautiful.

Lin Chao left Fang Yuan's line of sight, and a car pulled up beside him.

Lin Chao did not hesitate and sat straight inside.

The person driving was a Ghost.

"My lord, tonight Lord Hong Yin will make a move against the Lingyun Demon Cave."

"Understood."

Lin Chao gave a response.

"Jian Yi?"

Lin Chao returned to his room, and the house was empty.

On the dining table, there were three dishes and a soup, along with a sticky note.

"Busy, won't be back tonight."

The words Jian Yi left were very brief.

Lin Chao took a look, and he knew the reason behind it.

With the Demon Cave disturbances, the Transcendentals in the Spider would be mobilized.

As a Clone, Jian Yi naturally would not be absent.

Lin Chao sat at the table, slowly eating the meal.

This small room was his home in this world.

Just at this moment, Lin Chao began to look inside his own body.

In the place where one kidney was missing, there was a strand of special energy.

"Demon, when will you wake up?"

Lin Chao was very curious about the Demon inside his body.

This demon has been sleeping within his body all along.

Perhaps it is waiting for a suitable opportunity to take Lin Chao's body for its own.

"Don't worry about it." Lin Chao did not pay it any mind.

The day the demon within his body awakens will be the day of his death; Lin Chao still has that much confidence.

After finishing his meal and washing the dishes, a black robe appeared on Lin Chao: "Alright, it's time to head out."

Outside, the city was a blaze of lights; even though Ge'en City is remote, the night was as bright as day.

His figure vanished into the darkness.

Two hours later.

Deep in the mountains.

Bai Chong had his hands in his pockets and a blade of grass hanging from his mouth, looking rather devil-may-care.

"Black Robe, do you think there's any chance we'll see two lone demon beauties today?"

Lin Chao looked at Bai Chong, quite speechless: "Don't die on a woman's belly one of these days."

"If it were a peerless beauty, it would be worth it." Bai Chong spoke, half-lying on a large tree.

Lin Chao was right beside him.

Nowadays, they are patrolling together.

Three miles ahead is the entrance to the Lingyun Demon Cave.

If any demons run out, they will definitely pass by their side.

Therefore, they are guarding here.

Currently, Lin Chao and Bai Chong can be considered to be on the front line.

Once a problem arises, they can notify the rear at any time.

Just at this moment, several figures appeared.

Bai Chong's gaze immediately became complex: "Those are Clones."

On the ground, Jian Fang was wearing an eye patch, her whole demeanor appearing exceptionally cold.

She glanced at Bai Chong and Lin Chao in the tree, withdrew her gaze, and continued patrolling.

"Sigh, what a pity." Bai Chong waved his hand, "With the Demon Cave acting up, we Transcendentals can still leave if we want to."

"These Clones, even if they have saved up enough contributions to earn their freedom."

"Once such a major event occurs and the higher-ups issue a summons, they must go to war."

"Mm." Lin Chao did not say anything.

He could not evaluate the plight of the Clones.

Of course, he also has his own code of conduct when doing things.

He could not say that the higher-ups cloning Clones to use as expendables was completely devoid of conscience.

In a sense, he is also a beneficiary.

"These days of patrolling have been easy." Bai Chong is a chatterbox, constantly rambling, "It's truly suspicious that no demon creatures have run out these past few days."

Not to mention the Demon Cave acting up, even normally, some low-level demon creatures often run out of the Lingyun Demon Cave.

Yet now, it seems very calm.

This gives Bai Chong a feeling of the calm before the storm.

"Who knows what's going on?" Lin Chao said casually.

Time passed quickly.

Soon it was three o'clock in the morning.

Bai Chong remained in the tree, in good spirits.

He looked at Lin Chao and joked: "Don't you still have to go to work at the company during the day? Do you want to take a nap now?"

"..." Lin Chao did not speak.

Just then, suddenly, Bai Chong's spirit became alert all at once.

"There seems to be some fluctuation ahead."

An obscure fluctuation was radiating from around the Demon Cave.

Lin Chao's black robe fluttered: "You stay here, I'll go take a look."

Bai Chong hesitated for a moment: "Alright."

His strength is not as good as Black Robe's.

Black Robe going is the best choice.

"If I haven't returned by dawn, you go back to the Spider." Lin Chao added.

"Pah, pah, pah, don't go setting such flags for yourself!" Bai Chong said loudly.

Lin Chao smiled, his voice hoarse: "I'm different; just don't keep setting flags for yourself."

He is a reincarnator and fears no death.

Moreover, every time he dies, his state of mind undergoes some transformation.

This is of great help to him in improving his strength later on.

It can be said that with every world he experiences, his accumulation increases.

After Lin Chao finished speaking, his figure disappeared.

The direction he went was the Lingyun Demon Cave.

In fact, the fluctuation just now was a secret signal given to him by the Ghost he had contracted.

This meant that Hong Yin had already dealt with the demon creatures in the Lingyun Demon Cave and was now waiting for him to enter.

Lin Chao was getting closer and closer to the Lingyun Demon Cave.

Suddenly, he stopped in his tracks.

Beside him, a human figure appeared.

This figure was none other than Jian Fang.

Jian Fang looked at Lin Chao, her voice indifferent: "You came too?"

"Yes, some changes happened here, I am going in to take a look."

Jian Fang sized up Lin Chao, not knowing what she was thinking, and finally spat out two words coldly: "Dangerous."

Lin Chao's voice was low: "If it's dangerous, should I not go? Didn't you all go as well?"

Jian Fang looked at Lin Chao and said nothing more.

Lin Chao took a deep breath, and his figure disappeared once again.

Jian Fang watched Lin Chao's back, silent and wordless.

At this moment, Jian Lie's figure appeared: "He is Black Robe, one of the Spider, joined the Spider five years ago, his strength is Third Tier."

A rare look of suspicion appeared on Jian Fang's face: "He gives me a familiar feeling."

"Could it be an acquaintance?" Jian Lie said.

This was normal.

Because, when Jian Fang was serving in the past, she often dealt with some Transcendental.

It was normal to know some Transcendental.

"I don't know." Jian Fang shook her head, "It's not important."

Nowadays, for her, the only thing that mattered most was Feng Yan.

As for others, she actually did not care much.

Jian Lie looked ahead and sighed: "I hope this Demon Cave doesn't have any major problems."

If a major problem occurred, it would mean that the death toll of their Clone would be very heavy.

……

Inside the Lingyun Demon Cave.

Lin Chao was in a black robe, his body exuding an obscure aura.

Tao Lan walked over, her face full of coquettishness: "My lord, the Lingyun Demon Cave has already been taken by Lord Hong Yin."

Tao Lan's hair was disheveled, and paired with her pale face, the coquettishness in her eyes was actually quite chilling.

"Hmm." Lin Chao nodded, "Well done."

With Lin Chao's own strength, he would not dare to rashly attack a Demon Cave right now.

First of all, with his current strength, even if he could win, he would have to pay a great price.

Within his body, there had always been the existence of a demon.

This was a hidden danger; he would not let himself get injured.

In that case, if the demon were to awaken, he might be subjected to some underhanded tricks.

Ahead, Hong Yin walked over; he was in red clothes, his arms were bloody, and the red clothes were exceptionally bright, making it impossible to tell if it was the original color or if it had been stained red by blood.

"Can a... Ghost also bleed?"

Hong Yin maintained his aloofness and did not speak.

Beside him, Tao Lan spoke up: "A Ghost does not bleed, but it can get injured; Lord Hong Yin is..."

Tao Lan did not finish the rest of her sentence.

Lin Chao looked at Hong Yin, his gaze gentle: "You've worked hard."

Having spent so long with Hong Yin, he had roughly figured out Hong Yin's personality.

It was probably a bit of fake aloofness, a bit of tsundere.

"Hmph." Hong Yin snorted coldly, holding his head high arrogantly, "A total of three thousand seven hundred and twenty-one demon beasts, all Slay."

Lin Chao's gaze became even gentler.

All living things in the world have their own unique charm.

"Don't look at me with that kind of gaze." Hong Yin said coldly, "I'm afraid you..."

Lin Chao was speechless.

Led by a group of Ghost, Lin Chao entered the depths of the Lingyun Demon Cave.

The interior of the Demon Cave formed a world of its own, just like the outside world.

However, this world was very small and not large.

Ahead, the corpses of many demon beasts were laid out in a dense mass.

These demon beasts had died in extremely miserable ways; it was clear that they had experienced a fierce battle before they died.

Beside him, Hong Yin dragged his long red clothes, and there was actually confusion in his eyes.

He did not know what Feng Yan wanted these dead demon beasts for.

It didn't look like they were being sold for money.

Lin Chao glanced at Hong Yin, his gaze profound.

For some reason, Hong Yin beside him suddenly felt a chill deep in his heart, as if he had been stared at by some terrifying creature.

"Are you curious why I wanted you to Slay these demon beasts?" Lin Chao spoke, his voice calm.

Hong Yin stood coldly to the side and did not speak.

Tao Lan looked at Lin Chao with anticipation: "This servant wants to know, what is the reason?"

"Because... I am hungry."

Following this voice from Lin Chao, a terrifying aura suddenly radiated from his body.

Even Hong Yin was very wary of that terrifying aura.

Nearby, Hong Yin's expression changed slightly: "The Lord is only fourteen years old, right?"

To tell the truth, this was the first time he had seen Feng Yan make a move.

Just one move, and it surprised him.

"The Lord is actually this powerful!" Tao Lan licked her lips, her gaze flickering.

The reason they were willing to contract with Feng Yan was because the Spirit Breath on Feng Yan was sufficiently dense.

Whether Feng Yan's strength was great or not, they did not care.

Now, he was actually this powerful.

At fourteen, most people in the Supernatural world have only just begun their Awakening.

Hong Yin was astonished.

When Feng Shanyue was young, he was also far inferior to Feng Yan.

It could be said that he was crushed in every aspect.

The stronger Feng Yan's strength was, the better it was for them.

Hong Yin's gaze was profound as he stared at Lin Chao.

But the next second, he saw a... phantom!

"What is this?" Tao Lan naturally saw it too.

Behind Lin Chao, a massive creature's phantom appeared.

Sacred, majestic, powerful.

Seeing that phantom, Tao Lan's body began to tremble.

Hong Yin's eyes widened even further, losing his composure for the first time, his heart shocked: "This is... the dragon of Jiuzhou?"

He had met Feng Shanyue and knew a few fragments of information about the Otherworld.

The Otherworld is called Jiuzhou, where Seventh Tier powerhouses stand in great numbers.

More importantly, the cultivation in Jiuzhou seems to have no gap between the Seventh Tier and the Eighth Rank.

This is all because, within Jiuzhou, an extremely powerful existence once appeared.

That existence was the Dragon Emperor.

He went to the Immortal Palace alone and blocked dozens of True Immortals, blocking them for three thousand years.

In the end, he even sacrificed himself to open the Immortal World Channel.

In Jiuzhou, the Dragon Emperor is the undisputed number one.

For his contributions to Jiuzhou, countless people erected monuments and temples to worship him.

Even though over ten thousand years have passed since the Dragon Emperor sacrificed himself, in Jiuzhou, the Dragon Emperor remains the most powerful legend.

"The Lord... what is his relationship with Jiuzhou?" Hong Yin wondered in his heart.

At this moment, the massive dragon shadow behind Lin Chao suddenly opened its blood-red maw.

An aura like a tornado swept across.

Seeing this, three thousand demon corpses all flew up and were all swallowed into Lin Chao's belly.

Those were three thousand demon corpses!

Among them, many corpses were as large as small hills.

Yet, under that dragon phantom, they all turned into nourishment and were swallowed into his mouth.

Beside him, Tao Lan watched this scene, her body unable to stop trembling.

This master... is not human!

After the Dragon Absorption Method was finished, a sharp glint flashed in Lin Chao's eyes.

With so many demons, without the Big Eater Talent, he would still need a few days to digest them.

He looked at Hong Yin and the others, and the phantom on his body disappeared.

Tao Lan trembled: "Lord... you are full, right?"

"Oh? Eighty percent full." Lin Chao was still unsatisfied, "Continue to work hard."

Tao Lan: "... We will definitely work hard!"
