I made the entire cultivation world cry

Chapter 65: Sect Urgent Summons
Han Tao killed Yan Hong, told Jiang Yi the location of his hidden notes, and then committed suicide.

Jiang Yi said that killing Yan Hong in exchange for his life and letting him enter the illusion alive was not considered a breach of promise.

The final image recorded by the two people's identity tokens was only the scene of Han Tao killing his fellow disciples and then committing suicide in a frenzy.

Jiang Yi took Han Tao's identity token, and Yan Hong's was left here. She only needed to retrieve Han Tao's hidden notes before the sect conducted a thorough investigation and properly dispose of the token.

Putting away the golden leaf fan, Jiang Yi sat quietly in front of the two corpses to regulate his breathing.

The murderous intent surging in her chest was like a poisonous snake spitting out its tongue. She was very familiar with this feeling. In her previous life, it was called mental illness, and in the world of cultivation, it was called an inner demon.

This inner demon made her angry and murderous. Simply put, she was crazy.

If she wasn't crazy, she wouldn't have exploded her golden elixir without hesitation two years ago when her future was bright.

Jiang Yi never suppresses his inner demons by force. Instead, he treats them with guidance and directly uses killing to prove his truth.

In the past, my inner demons would frequently strike, and I would go out to fight and kill a few people for no reason.

Two years ago, when the demonic tide hit, why didn't her mother take her to the battlefield, but instead brought her junior sister who had lower cultivation? It was because she was afraid that she would be corroded by the demonic energy, her inner demons would riot, and she would become murderous and violent, unable to distinguish between friend and foe.

After escaping death, she suddenly recovered and became as calm as an old monk. She thought it was the effect of the lazy root.

Today, her inner demon revived, and she realized that she had not recovered.

Great! I feel refreshed again.
After taking three deep breaths, Jiang Yi put on his usual lazy smile, put away the things on the two people, and removed the tortoise shell formation.

Rumble!
The earth shook again, and the rock spike on the top of the cave fell down, burying the corpse under the rocks.

Jiang Yi dodged the falling rubble and returned to the cave entrance, where he saw Shen Puning and the others gathered together to block the falling rubble.

"Ayi!"

Shen Puning breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Jiang Yi had recovered as before, and Hua Gu turned into a stream of light and threw herself into Jiang Yi's arms.

Jiang Yi hugged Hua Gu and rubbed her, "Sorry for making you worry."

Shen Puning shook his head to indicate no.

Xin Wushuang nodded, glanced at the side, and then shook his head.

"Ayi, is there an exit at the back? The front is blocked, and if we go out from the front, we will definitely encounter the cold fog that freezes our true energy." Shen Puning asked worriedly.

When the shaking stopped, Jiang Yi walked to the fire and sat down, then took out a fasting pill and swallowed it without changing his expression.

“There’s no road back there.”

Hearing this, Xin Wushuang also returned to the fire and sat down, taking out the sesame cake from his storage bag and eating it.

Hongli was silently boiling water beside her, and Hua Gu was floating quietly beside Jiang Yi, watching Jiang Yi check the storage bags and demon spirit bags of the two people one by one.

Shen Puning, who is usually optimistic and cheerful, is very impatient at this moment, walking back and forth in the cave with a worried look on his face.

"What should we do? Are we going to be trapped here to death? I don't have much food left. Oh, why are you two so calm? Aren't you worried at all?"

"I'm anxious!" Xin Wushuang said in a deep voice, but his face was expressionless as he continued to gnaw on the pancake. "Eat your fill first."

Shen Puning was anxious and ran to the sealed cave entrance to check. The cold air seeped in and froze their true essence on contact. If they forced their way out, they would be no different from ordinary people and would definitely be frozen to death.

The way forward didn't work, so she ran to the back of the cave to look, and found that there was really no way out, and her eyes turned red.

"I can't die here. I haven't proven to my family that I can survive on my own. If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have run away from home. It would have been fine to just stay at home and be a useless person waiting to die."

Jiang Yi sighed and couldn't help but say, "Puning, it's just your emotions that have hit a dead end, not your entire life. When you encounter something that can't be solved for the time being, the worst thing to do is to be impatient. Things will be resolved if you take your time, and people will find peace if you take your time." "Now, sit down. Eat when you're hungry. Meditate and regulate your breathing if your true energy isn't high. Keep your magic tools and talismans handy, and take out your elixirs and spirit stones and tuck them into your clothes. Always be in the best possible state of mind and wait for the right moment. Don't let your own state hold you back when the opportunity comes."

Xin Wushuang nodded. When she was hunting in the mountains, the first thing she had to learn was to be calm and wait, and when the time was right, she would shoot the target with one arrow.

Shen Puning nodded with tears in her eyes.

Among the three of them, Shen Puning is a social expert. She is the most tactful in her daily interactions and can take care of other people's emotions. However, when something really happens, Shen Puning is not as calm and composed as Xin Wushuang.

Jiang Yi took out everything from their storage bags and laid them out on the ground. "With such a big commotion here in Hanpo Valley, the Foundation Establishment Master stationed at the Black Iron Mine will definitely come to check it out. Once the situation calms down and the cold fog dissipates, even if they don't come to rescue us, we can still get out on our own. We're not in dire straits yet."

Shen Puning continued to nod, comforted by Jiang Yi's words.

Jiang Yi briefly told the two of them about the beast spirit and fire spirit. Xin Wushuang looked calm. She had a clear goal and never coveted opportunities that were not suitable for her.

Shen Puning couldn't help but ask Jiang Yi, "Ayi, now that you have the Demon-Suppressing Ring that can subdue the Fire Spirit, don't you want to go find that Fire Spirit?"

Jiang Yi picked up the demon-controlling ring that was carved from black ice and emitted a biting chill, and looked at it carefully in front of him.

"Now it's not a question of whether I want it or not, but we are trapped here and don't have the ability to ask for it. It's better not to think about it. What is mine, heaven will not let it escape. What is not mine, there is no point in forcing it. Look, our herb-gathering mission is completed."

Jiang Yi pushed several jade boxes containing elixirs from their storage bags in front of Shen Puning and Xin Wushuang. One of them contained the last piece of jade bone ginseng they were missing, a total of ten pieces.

In addition, there were also surpluses of several other types, as well as some rare species that were not on their list. Jiang Yi even found two relatively common first-grade spiritual woods among them.

From this, it can be seen that Han Tao and Yan Hong have been lingering in the Cedar Forest and Hanpo Valley for a long time, using the excuse of collecting herbs to investigate the matter of the fire spirit.

The two of them didn't have many spirit stones on them, less than two hundred low-grade spirit stones in total, and the demon spirits in their demon spirit bags had also become corpses.

Among them is a fire-attributed demon spirit, which should be Han Tao's, and the other is a gold-attributed demon spirit. We will see what specific spells the two demon spirits have after they are freed.

There are two bottles of low-grade Soul-Nourishing Pills, one with fire attribute and one with gold attribute. There are no talismans, but there are two valuable "Thunder Fire Pearls".

If this thing exploded when thrown at her face, it could kill a person at the peak of Qi training. Fortunately, she drew her sword quickly enough.

In addition, there are two flying paper cranes produced by the sect's deacon hall, which are close to being scrapped, two medium-grade magic weapons, a rope and a shield, which are of average quality.

Two poor guys, not even as rich as her, Jiang Yi spat in her heart.

However, Han Tao's most valuable thing is the notebook. Even if she can't get the fire essence, if she wants, she can use Hongli to refine the beast spirit fire from scratch.

At this moment, the identity tokens on the waists of the three people emitted bursts of light at the same time, and the same sect decree was projected into the air by the light and shadow.

[In the mountains behind the northwest mine, fire beasts are rioting. All disciples within a hundred miles are urgently summoned to provide support. No disobedience is allowed.]

The fact that they received this decree means that their location has been locked by the formation related to the identity token. If they do not go to provide support, they will have two options left.

1. Defection from the sect.

2. Return to the clan and be punished.

Although you cannot disobey the sect's edict, after providing support, the sect will reward you based on your merits, and the contribution points and spirit stones you receive will be very generous.

"Ayi, what should we do? If we don't go, even if we say later that we are trapped, it will probably be used as an excuse to evade the imperial edict." Shen Puning said worriedly.

Xin Wushuang looked at Jiang Yi. When they first entered Tiebei Mountain to collect herbs, they followed Shen Puning's arrangements in everything, but when the crisis really came, Jiang Yi was the most reliable backbone.

Jiang Yi picked up the debris on the ground, lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, and when he raised his eyes again, his gaze fell on Shen Puning's demon spirit bag.

"Let the pearl out, and I'll give it something good to eat."

The top-grade Chengling Pill that contains the 'Earth Escape' ability smells like mud.
