At this rate, the three demons would likely meet their end together in a dozen breaths or so, with the Saint of Ultimate Goodness dying the fastest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, the fanatical call of Cui Minmin rang out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three Demon Star Order Masters sprang out like hunting dogs, each with their own assigned task.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One, whose entire body was covered in rot and filth, followed by all manner of flies and vermin—clearly a Demon Star Order Master of the Unclean path of the Compassionate Father—blocked the path of the Reincarnators with a crazed look on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He shouted things like \"Minmin, I am willing to give everything for you,\" while simultaneously triggering a forbidden technique similar to self-detonation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He exploded with a thunderous roar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Yu had seen garbage trucks overturn in his past life, but compared to this scene, that was naturally a minor matter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He alone made Li Yu feel as if he were watching sewers, septic tanks, and the like all explode at once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All kinds of filth rained down like a sky full of flowers, amidst which swarms of flies danced, maggots crawled in a sea of excrement, and countless vermin hopped about, charging at anyone they saw.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even someone as powerful as that \"Shaman\" was terrified to the point of losing her composure, forced to stop her charge to cast spells and disperse the filth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, the other two under Cui Minmin had already brazenly charged into the academy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As they approached the three great demons gnawing at each other, the two made the exact same choice as the Unclean one, disregarding everything to release all their power just to fulfill the order given by Cui Minmin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First came a deafening boom as another Order Master self-detonated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three demons, already severely wounded, took another heavy blow simultaneously, and amidst the splashing of rotting flesh, they plummeted completely into the Sequence 8 level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then came a bear's roar; the \"Demon Monk\" began to transform into a giant bear, his body swelling frantically from the head down, and in the blink of an eye, his size caught up to and even surpassed the three great demons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And his final words were:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Minmin!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Come quickly and offer the sacrifice.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After saying this, he began to ravage the three demons in turn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though his own body was bitten and hacked to pieces in the process.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, when a Demon Monk chooses to fully demonize, it is no different from suicide.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His power would skyrocket for a short time, but his heart and soul would also be completely scattered by the demonic Qi, making him no different from a demon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These scenes not only stunned the Reincarnators.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Li Yu, who was also a Demon Star Order Master, was deeply shocked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What a ruthless woman!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"She originally intended to take these slaves out of the Strange Domain to continue enslaving and exploiting them in reality.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But because my suggestion allowed her to see the possibility of 'exclusively obtaining 12,000 merit points,' she simply abandoned these people to gamble on a main quest.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Decisive in killing, her ruthlessness is not a whit inferior to that Shang Yang.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Li Yu grumbled inwardly, he also completely memorized the name Cui Minmin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, he grew anxious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had offered the plan, but not so that Cui Minmin could reap all the benefits alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What Li Yu had in mind was for him to fish in troubled waters and snatch that \"Handbook of Ultimate Goodness\" from the body of the Saint of Ultimate Goodness to complete his own exclusive special main quest, but now he had no chance to act at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, it was at this moment that a new turn of events occurred.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The most miserable of the three demons was naturally the \"Saint of Ultimate Goodness\" wearing the Confucian robe; the many limbs of various species sewn onto his body were almost all pulled off, revealing a large ball of flesh that was full of wounds, extremely weak, yet surging with blood-red light and emitting a fragrant scent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as it was being held with difficulty by the bear demon, ready to be offered to Cui Minmin for sacrifice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The equally exhausted Demon Daoist and Demon Monk suddenly united, biting onto the bear demon's body from left and right, tearing it apart with a clattering sound; fresh internal organs and a mass of intestines fell out together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After slaughtering the bear demon, the two demons went to gnaw on that round ball, which could almost be considered a [Dao Fruit Meat Pill].\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Quite tacitly, as close as brothers, each taking half.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Originally, this expedition mission had extremely high difficulty and an extremely high mortality rate... If not for Li Yu discovering the secret and offering a poisonous scheme, if the two major factions had proceeded normally, even if the entire army were wiped out, they would not have been able to do anything to the three great demons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But if the two demons were allowed to devour the \"Saint of Ultimate Goodness,\" then everything would have been in vain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This scene made even Cui Minmin curse inwardly, and then, ignoring the fact that she was not skilled in melee combat, she decisively charged forward, wanting to sacrifice that meat pill first and then strike a lethal blow to quickly slaughter the other two demons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, on the Reincarnators' side, the Sequence 7 known as Qing Nü also broke free from the filth's pollution and charged over as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both women moved very quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alas!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to Li Yu, they were still too slow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment he saw the bear demon being bitten, he had already swallowed a [Skin-Peeling Strange Pill].\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, Li Yu transformed into a void-like strange body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he looked around, except for Cui Minmin and Qing Nü, he could have drifted over to all the remaining Reincarnators and peeled off their human skin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, at this moment, his eyes were only on the Saint of Ultimate Goodness, who was still roaring incessantly and attempting to regenerate his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He drifted over silently, completely beating the two women to it. From his sachet, he drew that stolen \"Saint Book Knife\" and slashed directly at the Dao Fruit Meat Pill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This blade originated from the [Saint Nest] and was a gift from the master of the Old Demon of Ultimate Goodness; it countered all holy spirits that had undergone flesh-and-blood modification.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Saint incarnation of the Old Demon of Ultimate Goodness was, of course, among them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, the next moment, everyone saw a bizarre scene:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That Dao Fruit Meat Pill was suddenly sliced in two; it died on the spot without even a scream.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, a pale palm reached out from the void, catching a strange book that fell out from within, which seemed to have both its cover and pages stitched together from human skin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, it vanished without a trace, leaving behind only the two great demons in confusion and fury, as well as Cui Minmin and Qing Nü, who were charging up one after the other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, both women were experienced!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of something at the same time, they both looked toward where Li Yu, that \"Sorrowful Corpse,\" had originally been.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qing Nü knew that no one in her own faction had such means.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Cui Minmin found it even easier; by process of elimination, besides her Star Slaves, the only one left among the Demon Star Order Masters was that depressed Sorrowful Corpse, especially when she recalled who had offered the poisonous scheme that led to this situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since that brat could know the weaknesses of the three great demons, he probably also knew of the existence of that book; there must be some special quest in this that she was unaware of.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sure enough, the person was gone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>=9+Shu_Ba\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good, good, good!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I never expected that I, Cui Minmin, would one day be manipulated and used by someone without even realizing it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Little brother, big sister is really starting to fall for you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While Cui Minmin said this through gritted teeth, she charged directly at the remaining two demons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having already suffered significant losses, she had to try her best to recover.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, she did not have much time either, as Qing Nü, also a Sequence 7, had already caught up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This woman's spiritual eyes suddenly shone with divine light; she first glanced in the direction where Li Yu had fled, frowning as she said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Void Strange State?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"To think such a fierce person was hidden among this batch of Demon Star Order Masters. But since he had such means, why didn't he kill all the other Reincarnators on our side besides me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He didn't even want the easily obtainable merit points? Could it be that this person is actually kind-hearted?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Qing Nü speculated, she chased after him to compete with Cui Minmin for the sacrifice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Yu did not know what happened afterward on the mountaintop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After his successful sneak attack, he did not continue to kill the remaining two demons, but instead took advantage of everyone's astonishment to turn void and escape.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was not that he was high-minded and not greedy, but that he had keenly sensed a threat coming from that \"Qing Nü.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It felt as if he had stayed even a moment longer, he would have been forcibly detained by her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Shaman sequence comes from the True God [Spirit-Response Yuanjun]; it is rumored that this god's authority lies within the void of the netherworld.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is that why it counters my void state?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While Li Yu was guessing, his body had not even exited the void state yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his mind, the notification sounds of the Demon Star Order began to bombard him:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Congratulations to the Order Master with the code name 'Calamity Star' for successfully completing the main quest [Sacrifice the Three Flowers]; you have obtained 3,000 merit points.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Congratulations to the Order Master with the code name 'Calamity Star' for successfully completing the special main quest [Truth of the Mount Zhangyi Strange Domain]; you have obtained 3,000 merit points.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And additionally obtained the special wonder: Handbook of Ultimate Goodness.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This handbook has been decrypted and can be taken out of the Strange Domain by the Order Master.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's here, it really is this thing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the foot of the mountain, in a secluded area, Li Yu exited the void state.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a look of joy on his face, he held the Handbook of Ultimate Goodness in both hands and began to read.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the cover and pages of this book were indeed made of human skin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But as a resident of Wanfu City and a Demon Star Order Master, Li Yu had long since become immune to such minor disgust.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The quest was completed and the merit points were in hand; Li Yu actually did not need to be in such a hurry to look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he had long since been infected with the \"bad habit\" of the Truth Bubble, having a great interest in prying into secrets; every time he finished reading a secret, besides charging the bubble, it also brought him no small amount of pleasure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Yu had long been extremely curious about the secrets intertwined with the Mount Zhangyi strange domain, the Old Demon Zhishan, and the Sacred Nest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Very quickly, he was satisfied and astonished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"At the end of the Warring States period, in the territory of Mount Zhangyi, a strange infant was born to a farming family.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This infant was actually three brothers coexisting in a single body; one body with three heads, how was that any different from a monster?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The parents intended to drown and abandon it, but unexpectedly, a highly respected Confucian scholar in the city named [Fifth Sage] heard of this, rushed over, and took the three brothers away.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This Confucian scholar named the strange infant Zhu Zhishan, but for some reason, he only gave one name for the three brothers to share and use together.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Afterward, Fifth Sage employed secret techniques to separate the three, leaving the original body to the eldest brother in the middle.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He then sought out two headless corpses for the other two; one possessed great wisdom, and the other was born with Dao bones.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon reading this, Li Yu’s face already revealed realization and shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His previous guesses were all wrong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",2237,"2026-06-21T04:11:00.205Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","bca040b38804cabf211dcecb099a40773743801747c98de5b79e06bfde05ee8f","ten-thousand-laws-of-the-occult-i-am-the-spirit--chapter-86","ten-thousand-laws-of-the-occult-i-am-the-spirit--chapter-84",427,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ften-thousand-laws-of-the-occult-i-am-the-spirit--cover.jpg"]
