Refining Demons to Become a Taoist: Refining 108,000 Insects at the Beginning.

Chapter 296 Taking advantage of the situation
Although the cultivator was influenced by Chen Ming's supernatural powers, which amplified his inner emotions.

However, he already had the intention to sow discord in his heart, which is why he was provoked by Chen Ming's supernatural powers.

At this moment, the True Lord of Punishment had his primordial spirit extracted, so his death was not unjust!

"Doesn't Chen Zhenjun want to know why he had such inappropriate thoughts, and who he was misled into becoming hostile towards the Five Gods lineage?"

The Punisher True Lord spoke indifferently, the chains in his hand flashing as they stirred within the cultivator's primordial spirit.

Everything the cultivator experienced was revealed in detail, leaving no room for concealment, and was known to the Punished Evil True Lord.

Chen Ming laughed and said, "Who has misled him and given him inappropriate thoughts? What does it have to do with me?"

"No matter how many tricks you try, you can wipe them out with a flick of my finger. Why bother investigating?"

"If they have enough strength to target the Five Gods lineage, why keep probing? Just take action directly!"

"They've been hiding in the shadows, too afraid to show their faces, so what's there to care about!"

Chen Ming succinctly revealed the essence of the matter, completely ignoring what the Punisher of Evil True Lord had said.

Seeing this, the True Lord of Punishment knew that he could not sway Chen Ming's mind, so he stopped pressing him.

He raised his palm, gently squeezed, and the chain he was pulling on suddenly tightened, causing the cultivator's primordial spirit to instantly collapse and perish!

It wasn't that the Punisher True Monarch was unaware of the cultivator's unusual behavior, but rather that he sensed Chen Ming's fluctuations in supernatural power and deliberately adopted a pretentious stance.

Seeing that he could not arouse Chen Ming's suspicion with this, he decisively took action and cleaned up the mess.

Chen Ming didn't know why he was doing this, and he didn't bother to guess.

Ultimately, it's nothing more than infighting between different schools of thought, and the same old tactics of winning over and betraying each other.

It's all for the sake of advancing one's own spiritual path!

“True Lord of Punishment, if there’s nothing else, then don’t bother coming over.”

Chen Ming paused, and flames of various colors erupted from the bodies of the five cultivators under his command, as they prepared to leave for the core of the Yellow Springs Secret Realm.

Unexpectedly, the True Lord of Punishment asked, "Since True Lord Chen is going to the Yellow Springs Divine Palace, may we travel together?"

This time, the unusual fluctuations emanating from the Yellow Springs Secret Realm were different from those before; they originated from the Yellow Springs Divine Palace.

The Yellow Springs Divine Palace is not only the core of the Yellow Springs Secret Realm, but also the foundation of the Yellow Springs Daoist tradition.

The lineage of the Yellow Springs Daoist tradition originates from the supernatural powers of the Yellow Springs.

Moreover, that was the palace where the Yellow Spring Emperor lived before his death, and after his fall, it fell into the Yellow Spring Divine Palace.

Since then, the Palace of the Underworld has been hidden deep within the secret realm and has never been seen again.

No matter how many cultivators from the Yellow Springs lineage, or even True Monarchs, tried, they could not sense or enter it.

Now that the Yellow Springs Divine Palace has shown signs of activity, which cultivator who has followed the Yellow Springs Dao lineage could remain unmoved?

"Chen Zhenjun has just killed quite a few cultivators from the Ten Kings Palace, some of whom were figures that the Ten Kings Palace had painstakingly cultivated,"

"Those people in the Ten Kings Hall are still hoping that a few of them can cultivate to the True Dao Realm."

"Once we arrive at the Yellow Springs Divine Palace, we'll inevitably run into those guys from the Ten Kings' Hall!"

"With Chen Zhenjun traveling with me, and the Five Gods lineage being in the same lineage as my Four Officials lineage, we can at least look out for each other, can't we?"

The True Lord of Punishment spoke calmly, yet his words revealed a hint of goodwill.

Chen Ming turned around, chuckled noncommittally, and said, "True Lord of Punishment, please!"

As for what Chen Ming was thinking, and whether he would truly have someone to rely on once he arrived at the Yellow Springs Divine Palace, as the True Lord of Punishment had said, it remains unknown.

The True Lord of Punishment's cold face finally softened a little. With a wave of his sleeve, his troops transformed into dark shadows and clouds, merging with the firelight of the Five Gods lineage.

Chen Ming held the Five Qi Tree in his hand, and five-colored flames and smoke swirled around his feet.

The True Lord of Punishment, riding on dark clouds and shadows, with countless souls appearing and disappearing, took a step forward and arrived beside Chen Ming, walking side by side.

Between the two, their auras shifted, and neither could be distinguished as superior.

In the eyes of the cultivators, Chen Zhenjun of the Five Gods lineage is no weaker than Zhenjun of Punishment.

The Five Gods and the Four Officials, representing two lineages of Daoist tradition, have already formed an alliance.

Chen Ming had a vague guess in his heart that in addition to the Punisher of Evil True Lord, the Four Officials lineage also had a Fate-Controlling True Lord. Both of them had achieved the True Dao Realm for a long time and their strength was not low.

But the Lord of Fate has not shown his face for a long time. Could it be that something unexpected has happened to him?
He wanted the usually aloof and arrogant True Lord of Punishment to come forward and win him over.

If the Lord of Fate were to truly meet with an accident, the Four Officials lineage would be left with only the Lord of Punishment, who would indeed be unable to withstand the Ten Kings Palace alone.

"Whatever his intentions, things aren't bad for me as they are right now!"

"He wanted to use my influence, and I used his influence in return..."

Chen Ming and the Punisher True Lord, each with their own agendas, headed together to the Yellow Springs Divine Palace.

The Yellow Springs Palace has not yet fully manifested, but it ripples subtly every now and then.

Although the fluctuations were subtle, they couldn't be hidden from view; the location and time when they would manifest had already been calculated.

At this moment, in the place where the Yellow Springs Divine Palace was about to manifest, many cultivators of the Yellow Springs lineage had already occupied advantageous positions, both openly and secretly, just waiting for the Yellow Springs Divine Palace to appear.

Upon their arrival, Chen Ming and the Punisher True Monarch did not say much. They each chose a nearby location and settled down with their subordinates.

As time progressed and the Yellow Springs Divine Palace appeared in the world, cultivators from the Ten Kings Palace lineage flocked to it.

"Boom!"

A series of loud noises caused the stable space of the Yellow Springs Secret Realm to tremble slightly.

"The True Lord of the Ten Kings Palace has arrived!"

The True Lord of Punishment spoke solemnly to Chen Ming.

"All six True Monarchs have come! Even the two ancient True Monarchs who have been living in seclusion, True Monarch Reincarnation and True Monarch Black Rope, have come!"

The Wheel-Turning True Lord and the Black Rope True Lord are the oldest and most mysterious beings in the Yellow Springs Daoist lineage.

It already existed before the Yellow Springs Emperor established the Yellow Springs lineage.

At that time, the two of them had already attained the true path and were renowned in the Southern Region of the True Realm.

However, when the Yellow Spring Emperor condensed the True Dao Rank and divided the Southern Region into the Yellow Spring Secret Realm, he unified and integrated the Dao of the Wheel-Turning True Monarch and the Black Rope True Monarch into the Yellow Spring.

From that time on, the two became subordinates of the Yellow Spring Emperor, but they became much more low-key than when they were in the Southern Region of the True Realm, and gradually stopped showing their faces.

He only appeared once, when the Yellow Springs Emperor perished, and has remained secluded from the world ever since.

Even when the Yellow Springs Daoist lineage was in turmoil several times, True Lord Reincarnation and True Lord Black Rope remained silent.

Unexpectedly, now that the Yellow Springs Divine Palace has appeared in the world, these two have also come!
"It seems that the appearance of the Yellow Springs Divine Palace this time is probably no ordinary event!"

Under the watchful eyes of many cultivators, strange phenomena continued to emerge above the Yellow Springs Secret Realm.

Countless shards of glass emitted a black light, from which countless black ropes emerged. Giant scissors snapped and rattled, and a chilling wind howled and shook the ground.

Everything in the Yellow Springs Secret Realm seemed to be suppressed by this strange phenomenon, unable to move.
