The Nanfeng family's upheaval.

This news soon spread throughout the entire Southern Wilderness Continent.

The Nanfeng family could originally be called the number one family in the Southern Wilderness Continent, with two Nascent Soul stage cultivators in the clan, and more than sixty Golden Core cultivators.

They were the veritable number one cultivation family in the Southern Wilderness, but later, the Su family gave birth to a Primordial Spirit stage cultivator, and naturally, the Nanfeng family stepped down from the title of the number one family.

However, in the Southern Wilderness Continent, no force dared to underestimate the Nanfeng family.

That first ancestor of the Nanfeng family ranked among the top in terms of strength in the Southern Wilderness Continent, and it was said that his cultivation had already reached the late Nascent Soul stage.

Even the Yuanding Sect did not dare to provoke them easily.

As a result, the Nanfeng family actually had internal strife, leading to a sharp decline in the family's strength and heavy losses, which made many forces secretly mock them.

Especially those who were hostile to the Nanfeng family stood out to ridicule them.

Of course, more people became cautious after learning about the Nanfeng family's upheaval.

That Poison Demon Shangren's reputation soared all at once; at the very least, among the major forces in the Southern Wilderness Continent, there was no one who didn't know him.

After all, if he could wreak such havoc on the Nanfeng family with his own strength, wouldn't a force weaker than the Nanfeng family be exterminated or completely controlled by him?

This was simply too dangerous. Golden Core-level families and forces felt a sense of crisis that reached its peak; no one knew if their own family had been targeted by Poison Demon Shangren and then secretly controlled.

All of a sudden, in the Southern Wilderness Continent, and even among some surrounding forces, everyone felt insecure and began to conduct rapid self-inspections.

And indeed, upon this inspection, quite a few forces discovered many internal traitors who had already been controlled.

Everything suddenly became chaotic.

In these short few months, dozens of cultivation forces were involved, and although these controlled people were eventually captured,

many forces also suffered significant losses, and some were even completely wiped out.

This situation also affected the great battle between the Yuanding Sect and the Qingmu Sect.

Both sides stopped fighting by mutual consent.

Then they began their own self-inspection operations.

There was no other way; they had seen how terrifying the internal strife that erupted in the major forces was. Since Poison Demon Shangren could secretly control those forces, there was no reason he would let them off.

Thus, the two major forces immediately ceased fighting and conducted self-inspections.

Upon this inspection, they discovered quite a few, but they were still too late; many controlled disciples within the sects had long since run away.

Clearly, these people were also clever; when they discovered that other forces were conducting self-inspections, they understood that they would be found out, so they ran away in advance.

One-tenth of them ran away all at once, and the high-level officials of the Yuanding Sect were immediately filled with rage. They had already suffered significant losses from the battle with the Qingmu Sect,

and now they had lost so many more, so the Yuanding Sect had been quite miserable these past few days.

Of course, the Qingmu Sect also had losses, but they were much fewer compared to the Yuanding Sect.

"Poison Demon Shangren, everyone knows about his situation now, right?"

"Junior Brother Su, are you talking about the uproar regarding the internal strife that came from the Nanli State today?"

Lu Qingshan opened his eyes and asked.

"Correct! It is exactly this matter. According to the news brought back by the sect's disciples, this internal strife involves nearly sixty forces in the Southern Wilderness Continent, among which there are four Nascent Soul-level forces alone, thirty-eight Golden Core-level forces, and the rest are Purple Mansion families."

"Because of this matter, many families and sects have seen their strength decline significantly, and some have even been directly exterminated."

"All of this was done by this Poison Demon Shangren. This person is truly terrifying; with his own strength, he stirred up such a huge storm. Even a major sect like the Yuanding Sect had people secretly controlled by him. This person is even more terrifying than those demonic cultivators."

Su Wanjun couldn't help but sigh: "Even in our sect, there were a few who were secretly controlled, but fortunately, they were discovered, and these people didn't cause any waves."

"However, this also serves as a wake-up call for us."

When Su Wanjun spoke, his face was very serious.

Others nodded subconsciously upon hearing this. Several Nascent Soul stage experts had been in seclusion for years and rarely cared about external affairs, but hearing that such a thing had happened, they couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts.

Of course, Wu Yong was the one most qualified to speak here.

"Fellow brothers, this Poison Demon Shangren is quite terrifying. Perhaps you don't know, but this old man was once controlled by him using Gu insects, and it was only thanks to Senior Su Fan's rescue that I was able to escape the cage."

Wu Yong's words left everyone present in a state of astonishment; they hadn't expected Wu Yong to have such an experience.

"Junior Brother Wu, tell us, what kind of person is this Poison Demon Shangren?"

Everyone then quickly asked.

Poison Demon Shangren was quite dangerous; they had to understand such a person. This guy used Gu insects to control others in secret at every turn; if things went wrong, perhaps the entire sect could be controlled by him.

This was extremely terrifying.

Therefore, everyone in their hearts also had the intention to strangle him.

It just so happened that Wu Yong had been in contact with him, so they could learn about him in advance.

"Actually, this old man doesn't understand him either."

"This old man hasn't even seen his face. His identity is extremely secretive; apart from his name, even his disciples have never seen his true face."

"As for his strength, I only know that he has Nascent Soul stage cultivation."

After finishing, Wu Yong shook his head.

After Wu Yong finished speaking, Lu Qingshan and the others' expressions became a bit more serious. Clearly, from Wu Yong's tone, they knew that this Poison Demon Shangren was an extremely difficult cultivator to deal with.

Not only was his identity mysterious and unpredictable, but his strength was also unfathomable.

And with him hiding in the dark like this, no one could be at peace.

Fortunately, their Zixiao Sect had a Primordial Spirit stage expert sitting in command, so that guy didn't dare to commit an offense. From the Zixiao Sect, only a few were controlled, and they were all disciples below the Purple Mansion stage.

Clearly, it shouldn't have been this person acting personally; it should have been his disciples and grand-disciples who did it.

This showed that the other party was still wary of the Zixiao Sect and didn't dare to commit an offense personally.

But if Zixiao Sect disciples went out, the Nascent Soul stage ones would be fine, but the Golden Core stage ones would be in danger. Facing a Nascent Soul stage expert, or even an old monster at the mid-Nascent Soul stage,

Golden Core stage cultivators had no way to resist.

And this person's tracks seemed to show that he liked to deal with the genius disciples of major sects, secretly controlling them.

Did the Zixiao Sect have genius disciples?

There were quite a few with Heavenly Spiritual Roots, not to mention Su Mingye, who possessed a precious body and was a peerless genius.

If one said that Heavenly Spiritual Roots were top-tier geniuses, then possessing a precious body made one a genius among geniuses.

So, someone like Su Mingye was inevitably prey in the other party's eyes.
