Chapter 151: Leng Yuexi is definitely not dead, the Youmo Sect's apprehension
"Heh, if that Leng Yuexi were truly still poisoned, she should have died from the poison long ago."
"But according to the intelligence we have from within the Xianxia Sect, Leng Yuexi's Life Tablet has not shattered."
"This means Leng Yuexi is not dead and is still alive and kicking; this is also why I want to send people to find her—I want to see the person if she lives, and her corpse if she dies."
The Youmo Sect Sect Master sneered.
"This!"
Hearing these words, the many Youmo Sect Elders fell silent.
They had to admit that the Sect Master's guess might be correct: that Leng Yuexi had truly resolved the Blue Demon poison, which is why she was still alive to this day.
"How on earth did this woman detoxify herself? Clearly, this kind of exotic poison is something only our Youmo Sect knows how to resolve?" A Foundation Establishment Elder found it simply unbelievable, not knowing how the other party had managed to detoxify.
"It is unclear, but there exist many, many exotic medicines in the world of Cultivators."
"The Cloud Mist Mountain Range also grows many, many Spirit Medicines."
"Perhaps when this woman snuck into the Cloud Mist Mountain Range, her luck was extremely good, and she happened to obtain a Spirit Medicine capable of resolving the poison."
"Such a thing is not impossible to happen."
The Youmo Sect Sect Master said indifferently.
"Damn it, this woman's luck is just too good, to be able to escape death like this."
A Foundation Establishment Elder felt very depressed.
In the past, the Youmo Sect did not know how great a price they had paid to capture Leng Yuexi alive.
But even so, this woman still escaped death and is still alive and kicking to this day.
On the contrary, the Youmo Sect has lost too many Foundation Establishment Elders because of this woman.
It can be called a heavy loss.
Of course, he also felt that the Sect Master's guess was not without reason.
After all, in the world of Cultivators, there are countless Cultivators who have obtained fortuitous encounters.
It is not impossible for someone like Leng Yuexi to accidentally obtain a detoxifying Spirit Medicine.
"Sect Master, since we know the whereabouts of that Leng Yuexi, why don't we dispatch Elders to go and capture this villain?"
An Elder immediately offered his suggestion.
"Stupid, for our Youmo Sect to send people to the Cloud Mist Mountain Range, isn't that purely sending them to their deaths?"
Hearing this, the Youmo Sect Sect Master said irritably: "This woman is a Foundation Establishment Perfection Cultivator, and she has a First Grade Spiritual Root. Now that she has resolved the poison and her body has recovered as before, it is impossible to take her down without three or five Foundation Establishment Late Stage Cultivators joining forces."
"Unless Golden Core True Persons like us take action personally, it is possible to capture her; for other Foundation Establishment Cultivators to go deep into the Cloud Mist Mountain Range is purely seeking their own deaths."
"This!"
The many Foundation Establishment Elders all understood their Sect Master's meaning, which was that ordinary Foundation Establishment Cultivators could hardly kill Leng Yuexi, but Golden Core True Persons could not just take action whenever they pleased.
If they really went deep into the Cloud Mist Mountain Range, they might even fall into the enemy's trap and perish.
Even if they dispatched four or five Foundation Establishment Late Stage Cultivators, they might not necessarily be able to find the other party's trail.
After all, the Cloud Mist Mountain Range is simply too vast.
They also could not find Leng Yuexi's trail in a short time.
Once they cannot find her, it is equivalent to a large amount of combat power being tied up in the Cloud Mist Mountain Range, which is not worth the loss.
How could the Sect Master not want to kill this woman?
It is a pity that, according to the current combat power of the Youmo Sect, they really cannot do anything to the other party.
"Right now, our most important task is still to eliminate the Xianxia Sect."
"As long as the Xianxia Sect perishes, what does a mere Leng Yuexi count for?"
"The Xianxia Sect is a Nascent Soul Sect that once ruled this island; its foundation is unfathomable."
"If we can destroy the Xianxia Sect, then I don't know how great our benefits will be."
A Cold Glow appeared in the eyes of the Youmo Sect Sect Master.
The reason he wanted to destroy the Xianxia Sect was that he coveted the inheritance and foundation of the Xianxia Sect.
The other party was once a Nascent Soul Sect with a deep foundation.
If he could successfully annihilate them, then he might be able to obtain enough resources to advance to the Nascent Soul stage.
By then, he would be able to become a Nascent Soul Cultivator and gain a thousand years of Longevity.
This was a temptation he could not resist.
Even if it consumes a large amount of the Youmo Sect's power, he must make this plan succeed.
"But Sect Master, this woman is a Foundation Establishment Perfection Cultivator; if she advances to the Golden Core stage during this time, the threat to our future will be very great."
An Elder was worried about this point.
"Advance to the Golden Core stage?"
Hearing this, the Youmo Sect Sect Master suddenly laughed: "Even if this woman has a First Grade Spiritual Root, wanting to advance to the Golden Core stage is not such an easy matter; she must cultivate in seclusion within a Third-tier Spirit Vein to have a certain possibility of advancing to the Golden Core stage."
"You are also Foundation Establishment Cultivators, and I believe you know just how difficult it is to advance to the Golden Core stage. If this woman really tries to form a Pill outside, that is seeking her own death; there is simply no possibility of success."
He did not believe at all that this woman could successfully form a Pill.
After all, the environment for forming a Pill is simply too important.
If it is carried out within a Third-tier Spirit Vein, the success rate increases by at least ten or twenty percent.
If it is a Second-tier Spirit Vein, the success rate is greatly reduced.
Although there have indeed been some Cultivators in history who could successfully form a Pill in a Second-tier Spirit Vein, the problem is that such people are few and far between, and can be counted on one's fingers.
He did not believe that woman's luck would be that good.
If one could succeed by relying on luck, this world would have been full of Golden Core True Persons long ago.
"Yes, Sect Master."
Many Youmo Sect Elders nodded, as they also agreed with this point.
Because this is a sect war, a mere Foundation Establishment Perfection Cultivator no longer counts for much; having one more or one less cannot affect the overall situation.
For now, they will temporarily endure Leng Yuexi and let this woman live for a while longer.
Once they have thoroughly decided the outcome, no matter where Leng Yuexi hides, she will not be able to escape death.
As for the matter of this woman successfully forming a Pill, it is simply impossible to happen.
No one knows better than they do just how difficult forming a Pill truly is.
…………
Another three months passed.
During this time, the Cloud Mist Mountain Range was incomparably peaceful.
Ever since Zhou Sui finished off Ge Xuan, Peng Hai, Miao Song, and the other three Foundation Establishment demonic cultivators, the Cloud Mist Mountain Range had returned to its former peace, and no more robbery or killing incidents had appeared.
"They actually didn't send any Youmo Sect cultivators over?!"
At this very moment, Zhou Sui sat cross-legged in the quiet room, finishing a session of cultivation; he stroked his chin, feeling a bit puzzled.
After all, according to his estimation, after three Foundation Establishment Cultivators died, the Youmo Sect should have been furious.
They should have even dispatched a large number of cultivators deep into the Cloud Mist Mountain Range to conduct a carpet search.
But the Youmo Sect seemed to not take this matter seriously at all.
It was as if the deaths of these three Foundation Establishment demonic cultivators didn't even count for anything.
There wasn't even anyone coming to take revenge.
This was somewhat beyond his expectations.
However, for Zhou Sui, it was naturally a good thing.
After all, the less the Youmo Sect takes it to heart, the better; once Yuexi successfully forms her Pill, it will be like fish leaping in the vast sea and birds flying in the high sky.
