The Rise of the Sect: I am the most persistent person in the world of immortal cultivation

Chapter 1134 Ye Yang's Scheme

“Those human cultivators have just arrived in this world and they wish they could exterminate us. Last time, they finally managed to gain the upper hand.”

"Now they've captured our vital forces, but they're not killing them, and they're just watching as a large number of their demonic troops escape."

"I always felt like something was wrong."

Hearing the Soul Devouring Demon Lord say this...

The Blood Prison Demon Lord, who sat at the head of the table, had a different opinion.

"Opportunity knocks but once; if we don't seize this chance, it won't be so easy next time."

Upon hearing this, the Soul Devouring Demon Lord frowned, and he too began to hesitate.

After a while, the Soul-Devouring Demon Lord sighed inwardly.

"Well, this is indeed an opportunity, and we can't let it slip by. But those humans are cunning, and I still feel that they are not as simple as we think."

"Alright! Blood Fiend, take my warrant and go to Lonely Cloud Island in the East Sea to find Eagle Demon and investigate to see if there is any news about the Millennium Spirit Marrow."

"Let's not rush into an attack."

Upon hearing the words "Old Demon Eagle," the Blood Demon General's eyes instantly blazed with intense light.

The previous impatience vanished, replaced by an irrepressible excitement.

"The Demon Lord is wise!"

He suddenly knelt on one knee and took the black token handed to him by the Soul Devouring Demon Lord with both hands.

"Old Demon Eagle's 'Eagle Eyes of Ten Thousand Miles' can see through illusions for ten thousand miles. With him taking action, we will definitely be able to distinguish the authenticity of that thousand-year-old water vein essence!"

That old demon eagle possesses the bloodline of the ancient thunder eagle.

His ability to investigate is renowned.

It is said that he can see the yin and yang with his left eye and can see illusions with his right eye, but he has an eccentric personality and his prices are exorbitant.

It's clear that the Soul Devouring Demon Lord paid a considerable price to invite him to help this time.

"Go, and come back quickly."

The Soul-Devouring Demon Lord waved his hand, his withered fingers tapping lightly on the bone armrest.

"Remember, that old eagle demon has an eccentric personality. He is only responsive to gentle persuasion and will not yield to force. He will only say that he has important matters to discuss. You must not provoke him."

"My subordinate understands!"

The Blood Demon General respectfully responded, and as he stood up, the bone spear made a piercing sound as it scraped the ground.

Seeing the Blood Demon General's departing figure, the Soul Devouring Demon Lord's solemn expression remained unchanged.

He slowly rose, his gaze sweeping over the burning camp outside the tent, and suddenly let out a low shout into the void.

"Shadow Serpent!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a dark shadow emerged from the corner of the tent like melting ink.

The person knelt on one knee, their body slender like a snake, surrounded by an aura that almost blended into the darkness.

"My subordinate is here."

The Shadow Snake's voice was as faint as a mosquito's buzz, yet it carried a chilling coldness.

"Go to the territory where those human cultivators reside in person."

"Although the Eagle Demon can discern truth from falsehood, he may not be able to observe the movements of those humans closely."

"Go and investigate to see if they are really digging for the essence of the thousand-year-old water vein, and while you're at it, check out the defensive arrangements of those islands."

"I obey my orders."

The shadow snake's figure moved slightly, about to disappear from the spot.

"and many more."

Do you know why I am being so cautious?

Shadow Snake was silent for a moment, then whispered.

"Your subordinate is foolish and only knows how to obey the Demon Lord's orders."

The Soul-Devouring Demon Lord slowly walked to the tent entrance, looked at the sea shrouded in demonic energy in the distance, and snorted coldly.

"The legend of that water vein essence has been circulating in the sea for many years, and our demon race has been unable to find any trace of it for many years."

"How could these humans, who have only been in this realm for a few months, be able to discover this so easily? This matter is too strange and should not be believed lightly."

He turned around, his gaze sharp as a knife.

"The key point of your trip is to investigate whether there are any signs of forgery at the scene where the human was digging for spiritual essence."

"If anything unusual is detected, immediately send a message via blood talisman. Remember, do not reveal your whereabouts."

"My subordinate understands!"

The shadow snake's figure disappeared back into the darkness, as if it had never existed.

Only the Soul Devouring Demon Lord and the Blood Prison Demon Lord remained inside the tent.

At this moment, the two looked at the skull lantern hanging from the top of the tent.

The eerie green flame inside the lantern flickered, reflecting the complex expressions on the two faces. "Ye Yang... Qingyun Sanren..."

He murmured the two names, his withered fingers clenching tightly.

"Don't think I'm really senile. Your little tricks might not be able to fool anyone."

Deep within the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Zhen Yue Grand Formation.

The power of the stars flowed through the array patterns like water.

Ye Yang and Qingyun Sanren sat facing each other, with a jade slip engraved with star maps floating between them.

"Your clan's Sky-Covering Array uses sea mist as a curtain, and is combined with the Zhou Tian Star-Suppressing Mountain Array."

"It is truly admirable that it can distort the secrets of heaven within a thousand miles."

Ye Yang traced the cloud-patterned array on the jade slip with his fingertips and couldn't help but admire it.

The Azure Dragon Sky-Splitting Sword in his hand rested diagonally beside his knee, the dragon patterns on the sword echoing the stars in the formation.

"Fellow Daoist Ye's words hit the nail on the head! Although our sect's formation can conceal physical form, it cannot hide the fluctuations of spiritual energy."

"However, the power of the stars drawn by this Zhou Tian Star Array can integrate the pressure of the Dao artifact into the starlight, covering the sky and sun and concealing its aura. No wonder outsiders cannot discover the hidden location of this place."

"It's just a pity. If the runes of the Ocean Waves Formation were mixed into the fog, the concealment effect could be even better."

As the two were discussing the intricacies of the subject, Ye Yang seemed to have noticed something, and a golden pattern suddenly appeared between his brows.

He suddenly opened his eyes, and golden light burst forth from them.

"Something's amiss!"

Before the words were finished, a very faint hissing sound came from outside the formation, as if cloth was scraping against a stone wall.

Qingyun Sanren instantly summoned his jade ruler, and azure light poured out like a waterfall, completely protecting the two of them.

"They're here to break through the enemy's core!"

next moment.

Ye Yang leaped out of the formation, his Azure Dragon Sky-Splitting Sword trailing a streak of light as it pierced the shadows in the northwest corner.

The fog there was distorting at a speed imperceptible to the naked eye.

Under the light of the Azure Dragon Sky-Splitting Sword.

A slender black shadow, like an eel, tried to slip into the gaps in the array patterns.

The demonic energy around him was suppressed by the Sky-Covering Array until only a thin thread remained.

"Where to run!"

Ye Yang's swordplay suddenly accelerated, the sword wind slicing through the mist.

Only then did they discover the true form of the dark figure.

A demonic figure lurked in the shadows, its body resembling a snake, clad in a raincoat like scales.

Their whereabouts were suddenly exposed at this moment.

Clearly, this matter also took him by surprise.

Seeing that its whereabouts had been exposed, the Shadow Serpent's eyes flashed with panic, and it turned to disappear underground.

His hands transformed into half-foot-long claws, attempting to tear apart the weak points of the formation.

But then Qingyun Sanren waved his hand.

Countless blue lightning threads surged from the ground, weaving into an impenetrable net that trapped him firmly.

"Pfft" sound.

The Shadow Serpent's claws struck the lightning net, instantly sending plumes of blue smoke billowing from the shockwave.

Just as he was about to open his mouth to issue the blood talisman, Ye Yang had already closed in and slammed the back of his sword heavily against the back of his head.

"This person concealed himself at a crucial moment and appeared near the formation; he must be no ordinary person."

"Let me investigate."

Ye Yang pointed his sword at the center of Shadow Serpent's brow. At the same time, he tapped his fingers repeatedly, and countless magical powers transformed into threads, which then bound Shadow Serpent to prevent him from committing suicide.

"Damn it, let me go!"

When the demon saw Ye Yang and Qingyun Sanren appear before him, he trembled and his face was filled with fear.

However, Ye Yang did not take their resistance seriously.

He slowly stretched out his hands, closed his eyes slightly, and held the shadow snake in his hands, carefully examining it.

At the same time, divine sense, like a knife, frantically cleaved through the chaotic fragments of Shadow Serpent's memories, layer by layer.

Qingyun Sanren stood to one side, his jade ruler always aimed at the Shadow Serpent's head, in case of any accidents.

He saw Ye Yang's brows furrowing and relaxing at times, and knew that the soul-searching was at a crucial point.

The star power within the formation fluctuated with Ye Yang's spiritual energy, as if it too was trying to uncover the demon's secrets.

A moment later, Ye Yang suddenly opened his eyes.
