Chapter 80: 《Brahma Saint True Demon Art》

In just a quarter of an hour, after the entire temple on Baichi Shan was reduced to ruins, the Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators of the Yin Yang Demon Sect's law enforcement team were all buried by Yan Taibai on Baichi Shan.

Before the supreme divine ability of the White Emperor Golden Emperor Slash, any formation, spell, divine ability, Top-tier Magical Tool, or Intermediate Talisman was of no use at all; they were directly shattered by a single sword strike from Yan Taibai, with no power to resist.

And with their means of attack broken, what they faced next was naturally death!

Therefore, the fate of the Yin Yang Demon Sect's law enforcement team was already sealed the moment Yan Taibai made his move.

This was still while Yan Taibai had only just converted the True Essence Magic Power in his dantian into "Geng Metal True Qi".

If he truly succeeded in his cultivation, there would be no one left in the entire Human World who could be his opponent.

Any formidable enemy could be slain with a single sword strike!

"Finally finished!"

After collecting all the spoils of war, Yan Taibai opened his interface with a face full of joy.

Host: Yan Taibai

Realm: Foundation Establishment Mid-stage

Age: Thirteen years old

Status: Youth stage

First immortal cultivation simulation completed: Reward: Metal Attribute Heavenly Spiritual Root.

【Second immortal cultivation simulation completed: Reward: "White Emperor Golden Emperor Slash"】

【Third immortal cultivation simulation completed: Additional divine ability: Sin Eye. Sin requirement: sixty】.

"Start the immortal cultivation simulation?"

"Start!"

Seeing this, Yan Taibai muttered to himself.

Subsequently, the interface before his eyes changed: Metal Attribute Heavenly Spiritual Root, started practicing "White Emperor Golden Emperor Slash" at age three, Ascended to the Spirit World, known as: Taibai Sword Immortal. Reward: "Brahma Saint True Demon Art".

As soon as the text fully emerged, Yan Taibai's mind, just like with the "White Emperor Golden Emperor Slash" back then, was flooded with a torrent of profound and mysterious characters, incantations, and diagrams...

It took a full hour before Yan Taibai could barely absorb it all.

"It's actually the 'Brahma Saint True Demon Art', though it doesn't seem very useful to me."

After receiving the general information about the "Brahma Saint True Demon Art", Yan Taibai frowned slightly, feeling somewhat dissatisfied.

After all, the "White Emperor Golden Emperor Slash" already contained such body-tempering techniques and divine abilities.

However, one would need to successfully cultivate the "White Emperor Golden Emperor Slash" before being able to cultivate them.

And wanting to successfully cultivate this "White Emperor Golden Emperor Slash" would be nearly impossible without a hundred or eighty years.

Yet this "Brahma Saint True Demon Art" only required one to reach the Golden Core Stage to begin absorbing heaven and earth spiritual energy, as well as other materials and heavenly spiritual herbs, to temper the body.

It could, however, temporarily solve the situation where the body might collapse under the strain of the White Emperor Golden Emperor Slash's excessive speed.

After all, compared to the Eternal Life world where cultivation starts from the physical body, cultivators in the Mortal world truly do not place much importance on the physical body.

Therefore, although Yan Taibai's physical body had undergone marrow cleansing during his breakthrough to Foundation Establishment, as well as subsequent tempering by heaven and earth spiritual energy and Geng Metal energy, it was still completely unable to control or withstand the terrifying speed brought about by the White Emperor Golden Emperor Slash.

The White Emperor Golden Emperor Slash is also a supreme escape technique.

"Then I shall cultivate it first! It will just happen to lay a foundation for the 'Immortal Golden Body' in the 'White Emperor Golden Emperor Slash' later on, making it easier to cultivate once my realm is high enough."

After some thought, Yan Taibai decided to cultivate the "Brahma Saint True Demon Art" first.

After all, to cultivate the "Immortal Golden Body", one's physical strength must also be up to par, otherwise, it would be impossible to withstand the subsequent tempering of the "Geng Metal Power".

Every wisp of that energy is equivalent to a White Emperor Golden Emperor Slash; it is simply not something his current physical strength could withstand.

Therefore, cultivating the "Brahma Saint True Demon Art" first is indeed a good choice.

"Time to go and take a look. It's a good chance to scout out the situation with the Ghost Spirit Sect."

After confirming his subsequent cultivation plan, Yan Taibai immediately transformed into a golden streak of light, appearing a thousand feet away from Baichi Shan in an instant; his escape speed was far beyond what even a Golden Core Stage Cultivator could reach.

In the blink of an eye, he had completely vanished into the horizon.

After Yan Taibai left, a rolling black-red demonic cloud arrived and descended upon Baichi Shan.

The demonic cloud dissipated, revealing an old man with a head of red hair. Looking at the scene of utter devastation and corpses strewn across the field, the old man's face turned livid, and he was filled with murderous intent.

"Who exactly is it!"

The old man roared in a fit of rage.

Unfortunately, there was no response at all.

Yan Taibai had no intention of collecting the bodies, or perhaps he had forgotten!

The person who arrived was none other than Huoyun Daoren of the Yin Yang Demon Sect. After all, with so many Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators from the Yin Yang Demon Sect's Law Enforcement Hall perishing at once, even Huoyun Daoren could not afford to bear the responsibility and had to come and investigate.

After all, it was he who had given the order; now that so many Foundation Establishment disciples had fallen, even as a Golden Core Stage Cultivator, he could not avoid being held accountable by the Yin Yang Demon Sect.

"Master, it can now be confirmed that this person is definitely not Yan Taibai of the Yanyue Sect. He is only at the Foundation Establishment Stage; it is absolutely impossible for him to wipe out so many law enforcement brothers in one go. Only a Golden Core cultivator could possibly do it."

The beautiful woman, in order to save her own life, had not joined the Yin Yang Demon Sect's law enforcement team in the attack.

After all, with such a formation, her presence made little difference.

She had hidden herself, but she never imagined that the culprit would be so powerful.

Wiping out all twenty-plus Foundation Establishment disciples of the law enforcement team in one breath.

"Nonsense, I know that. Even I could not break the Law Enforcement Hall's Yin Yang Underworld Ghost Great Formation in such a short time. This person's realm and strength must be behind mine. But even my great enemies do not have this strength. Who could it be? Could it be a great enemy that the sect has offended?"

Huoyun Daoren rebuked angrily.

Seeing this, the beautiful woman's delicate body trembled, and she dared not say another word, waiting quietly for Huoyun Daoren's orders.

"No matter who it is, the sect will certainly not let this grudge go easily. I will report it to the sect personally; you go to other countries to investigate. This matter should not have been caused by cultivators from the sects within our country. I am familiar with all their auras; even with disguise and concealment, their divine abilities, spells, and Dharma Treasures are hard to change. Therefore, it can only be a cultivator from another country."

After a long silence, Huoyun Daoren finally gave the order.

"Yes, this disciple understands. However, this disciple has a guess, though I do not know if I should say it?"

The beautiful woman bowed respectfully and said in a reverent voice.

"You mean to say the Ghost Spirit Sect, right?"

Upon hearing this, Huoyun Daoren said straightforwardly.

"Correct, it is indeed the Ghost Spirit Sect. The Yin Yang Underworld Ghost Array of this sect is derived from the Ghost Spirit Sect's own Sect Protection Array: the Ten Thousand Souls Underworld Ghost Array. Therefore, the most likely culprit to break the array in such a short time is a Golden Core Stage Cultivator from the Ghost Spirit Sect."

"After all, there have been rumors throughout this past year that the Heavenly Luo Kingdom Six Demon Sects are about to invade the cultivation worlds of various countries. Although I do not know if it is true, if it is, the Six Demon Sects are highly likely to use this method to ensure the various sects have no peace, thereby preventing them from making preparations."

"According to what this disciple knows, similar incidents have occurred in various countries over the past year. Even the medicine gardens of Huangfeng Valley and Qingxu Sect in Yue Country were burned to the ground by mysterious cultivators, and not a single disciple guarding the medicine gardens was spared," the beautiful woman reported truthfully.

"It seems that rumor is true. The Heavenly Luo Kingdom Six Demon Sects do not intend to let the various countries live in peace."

Huoyun Daoren sighed softly, the chill on his face fading for the most part, leaving only a look of helplessness.

Facing a behemoth like the Ghost Spirit Sect, the Yin Yang Demon Sect was simply no match, yet the Ghost Spirit Sect had slaughtered so many Foundation Establishment Stage disciples of the Yin Yang Demon Sect; this grudge was not small.

"Regardless of whether it is the Ghost Spirit Sect, I must report this matter to the sect. You should not return for the time being, lest you also suffer punishment." Huoyun Daoren felt a bit more regard for this last remaining disciple of his.

"Yes, this disciple obeys."

The beautiful woman hurriedly agreed.

She was also fortunate that she had not come to Baichi Shan, having intentionally arrived a bit late, thereby avoiding a fatal disaster.

"Hmm."

After nodding slightly, the demonic clouds reappeared around Huoyun Daoren, and they swept up his figure as he headed in the direction of the Yin Yang Demon Sect.

As for Yan Taibai, he also rushed back to the Yanyue Sect at top speed.

After placing all the confiscated spoils in his cave dwelling, Yan Taibai went to the cave dwelling of Nishang Xianzi to inquire about the situation during the year he had been in seclusion, so as to plan his next steps.

Especially regarding the movements of the Heavenly Luo Kingdom Six Demon Sects; he did not believe there was no movement at all.

Although there was plenty of news in the outside markets, most of it was hearsay and rumors, which could not be taken as truth.

And since Nishang Xianzi was one of his own, he could basically rest assured.

As for why it was not Nangong Wan, with whom he had a better relationship.

A homebody who only knew how to cultivate in seclusion, how much news could she possibly know? Naturally, Nishang Xianzi was more reliable.

As for Yan Taibai's return, Nishang Xianzi first rolled her eyes at him unhappily and said.

"You finally decided to come back. You know that Uncle-Master Qiong returned long ago. I originally wanted to instruct you on some matters, but unfortunately, I didn't see you. So, he asked me and Senior Sister Nangong to pass on a few words to you: stay in the sect and cultivate well, and do not go out easily."

"Master has returned!"

Before the words had even faded, Yan Taibai's face revealed a look of surprise.

"Yes, Uncle-Master Qiong has already returned, and he obtained quite a significant opportunity during this trip out. However, he has already entered a death-seclusion to attempt to break through the Nascent Soul Stage bottleneck, so you won't be able to see him for the time being. But if he can succeed, the sect will have four Nascent Soul cultivators. By then, even if the Heavenly Luo Kingdom Six Demon Sects invade, we won't be without the strength to fight back."

Nishang Xianzi said with her jade face full of envy.

After all, condensing a Nascent Soul was the greatest wish of almost all Golden Core Stage cultivators, but unfortunately, only one or two in ten succeeded.

This was also the reason why Huangfeng Valley was suffering from a lack of new talent.

Because the entire Huangfeng Valley only had seven or eight Golden Core cultivators, not even meeting the ratio, so the probability of a Nascent Soul cultivator appearing was naturally slim.

As for the Yanyue Sect, according to what Yan Taibai knew, there were at least twenty-seven or twenty-eight Golden Core Stage cultivators, and that was only on the surface; there were certainly more in the shadows, just unknown to others.

Furthermore, there were many Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators, and they could continuously produce Golden Core Stage cultivators, so as long as no accidents occurred, the Yanyue Sect would not end up like Huangfeng Valley.

"Master is actually in seclusion to condense a Nascent Soul? How long will it take for him to emerge?"

Yan Taibai said in shock.

He had truly never thought that his cheap master, Qiong Laoguai, would one day be able to enter seclusion to condense a Nascent Soul.

It seemed this was the opportunity he had obtained on this trip to the Heavenly Luo Kingdom.

In that case, it had something to do with him as well.

"Who can know that? It could be as short as eight or ten years, or as long as several decades, or even a hundred years. However, given Uncle-Master Qiong's lifespan, if he cannot condense a Nascent Soul this time, it will be difficult to enter seclusion to condense one later. Moreover, he might not even have enough lifespan left."

There was not much joy on Nishang Xianzi's face; instead, there was a bit more worry.

After all, most of the Yanyue Sect's Golden Core Stage cultivators had received guidance from Qiong Laoguai, and Nishang Xianzi was naturally no exception, so she still had some feelings for him.

Especially in the current situation, if Qiong Laoguai succeeded in condensing his Nascent Soul, the Yanyue Sect's strength would inevitably increase greatly.

It would also be of great help in dealing with the demonic invasion that could occur at any time.

"Hmm!"

Seeing this, Yan Taibai could only nod silently, praying that Qiong Laoguai would succeed in condensing his Nascent Soul; this way, he would finally have a true backer.

After all, he still could not contend with a Nascent Soul cultivator; at most, he could bully Golden Core Stage cultivators like Nishang Xianzi.

Seeming to notice the strangeness in Yan Taibai's gaze, Nishang Xianzi frowned slightly and reminded him.

"Yan'er will also be coming out of seclusion soon. Her cultivation speed is not slow either. Although not as fast as yours, she is almost at the tenth layer of the Qi Refining Stage."

Upon hearing this, Yan Taibai raised an eyebrow; he did not detect the strangeness in Nishang Xianzi's words and instead asked.

"If she breaks through, can she successfully establish her foundation by taking a Foundation Establishment Pill?"

Heavenly Spirit Root cultivators have no bottlenecks before the Golden Core Stage, so they do not take pills like the Foundation Establishment Pill to force a foundation establishment.

"I advise you not to be so anxious about taking a Foundation Establishment Pill to establish a foundation."

Upon hearing this, Nishang Xianzi said meaningfully.

"Does Senior Sister mean that the Ghost Spirit Sect has made a move?"

Seeing this, Yan Taibai suddenly thought of a major trouble.

The Ghost Spirit Sect—once the news of Yan Ruyan establishing her foundation spread, the Ghost Spirit Sect would inevitably take action.

In his current situation, it was almost impossible for him to protect Yan Ruyan; he could only continue to rely on the Yanyue Sect.

"It's not just the Ghost Spirit Sect; the Heavenly Luo Kingdom Six Demon Sects and perhaps even the Righteous Alliance of Fengdu Kingdom are involved. The mineral veins and medicine gardens of cultivation sects in various countries have been attacked by mysterious high-level cultivators, and almost none of the disciples there were spared. The border array defenses are the same; they are extremely difficult to set up, and from time to time, nameless high-level rogue cultivators destroy them..."

Nishang Xianzi told Yan Taibai everything about the demonic path of the Heavenly Luo Kingdom over the past year.

And the content of these events could be summarized in three words: cause destruction!

To ensure that the sects and families of the cultivation worlds in various countries have no peace.

"It looks like they are very likely to invade the cultivation worlds of various countries ahead of schedule."

After hearing this, Yan Taibai's expression became much uglier; plans could not keep up with changes!

The Heavenly Luo Kingdom Six Demon Sects and the Righteous Alliance of Fengdu Kingdom were reacting a bit too quickly.

But there was no help for it; who could have known that with the Righteous Path and Demonic Path joining forces, no single power in the Tiannan Cultivation World could contend with them, and even the Heavenly Dao Alliance later could only barely resist.

That was still under the condition that the Righteous Path and Demonic Path were not united; if they were to unite, it would be just as precarious.

It was like that back then, let alone now.

Therefore, the only way to resist the invasion of the Heavenly Luo Kingdom Six Demon Sects is to establish the Heavenly Dao Alliance.
