Being a talent in the Chusheng Demon Sect

Chapter 367 Moon Worship Holy Pool
In the end, Oborozuki gave in.

After all, the reason she was able to be so tough in front of Lü Yang was ultimately because of her status as a Great True Person, which gave her absolute power to suppress Lü Yang.

But things are different now.

Although it was only for a moment, Lü Yang did demonstrate the aura of a Great True Person, indicating that they were at the same level. If they were at the same level, then it would be a different story.

Sword cultivators are virtually invincible within their realm!

At least for a small sect like the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect, it is definitely invincible. Even if Longyue thinks her cultivation is higher, she only has a slight chance of surviving.

"Fellow Taoist, please."

Longyue stepped aside and dispelled the protective array of the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect, allowing Lü Yang to ride a sword light and drive straight into its depths.

Upon entering the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect, Lü Yang immediately unleashed his divine sense, recklessly sweeping across every inch of the sect's mountain gate. This sight caused the elders of the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect to turn extremely gloomy, as if their beloved goddess had been defiled, and they wished they could rush up and fight Lü Yang to the death.

"What are you looking for, fellow Daoist?"

Longyue flew in on a beam of light, her expression calm. There was one thing that Lü Yang was actually right about: the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect had indeed sent people to abduct civilians in Jiangnan.

However, that was not something they did on their own initiative.

Instead, it was someone within the Sword Pavilion who took the initiative to invite them, using those commoners as materials for testing Gu poison, in exchange for some spiritual materials and medicines unique to the Southern Frontier.

This business has been going on for over a hundred years.

Otherwise, given the strength of the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect, they would rather stay in the Southern Frontier and be as far away from the Sword Pavilion as possible. Why would they deliberately go to Jiangnan to cause trouble for the Sword Pavilion?

Despite this, Longyue dared not reveal the deal that everyone knew about. After all, even she had heard about the style of the Demon-Slaying True Man in the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect, and he was not like the other True Men of the Sword Pavilion. She could only swallow her humiliation and let Lü Yang investigate at will.

And so, a long time passed.

Seeing that Lü Yang was going too far, searching not only the surface buildings but also the underground, Longyue finally couldn't hold back any longer and said in a low voice:
"Fellow Daoist, have you investigated enough?"

"of course not!"

With a cold expression, Lü Yang pressed down on his sword light and walked directly into the residence of the leader of the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect. Inside a large hall, he said, "Fellow Daoist Longyue, please have a private talk with me."

Upon hearing this, Longyue's expression immediately changed.

'Could it be that we've been exposed?'

As a cultivator outside the four major powers, she naturally had some skill in achieving the late Foundation Establishment stage, and her greatest strength lay in her physique.

Its name is 【Kanli Dao Miaoyu Body】.

This physique combines the wonders of water and fire, with a cold exterior and a hot interior, making it very suitable for raising Gu worms. After she advanced to the Great True Person realm, she further developed it to its fullest potential.

On the other hand, this physique is also very suitable for joint cultivation. It can best nourish those cultivators who have built a metal element foundation, especially the sword cultivators of the Sword Pavilion. The so-called "water and fire temper the sharpness" is the same principle. The sword cultivator's sword foundation is nourished by her physique, which is enough to make the sword cultivator's sword foundation gain three points of sharpness out of thin air.

This has always been her secret.

After all, with such a superior physique, once exposed, the Sword Pavilion would surely make her surrender and use her as a furnace for their sword forging.

Thinking of this, Longyue's pretty face grew even colder.

In the end, there was no escaping it!

Even so, she dared not refuse, firstly because of Lü Yang's strength, and secondly because the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect's grand plan had reached a critical moment.

"A lack of patience in small matters can ruin great plans."

'Once I successfully refine the [Eternal Calamity Gu], I can use it to achieve the peak of Foundation Establishment. At that time, I can repay the humiliation I suffered today a hundredfold!'

'Just bear with him for now; consider it like being bitten by a dog.'

With this thought in mind, a resolute expression appeared on Longyue's face. Then, under the bloodshot gazes of the Wan Du Sect members behind her, she walked into the main hall.

"Boom!"

The palace doors were closed tightly.

"come here."

Taking the seat of honor without hesitation, Lü Yang looked at Long Yue, who was right behind him: "I like to take the initiative, so it would be best if you took the initiative to speak."

Upon hearing this, Longyue's expression immediately turned even more unpleasant.

You expect her to take the initiative? That's outrageous!

However, Longyue quickly realized her mistake. After all, she was a Great True Person, not a fool; her mind was simply cluttered, which had caused her to lose her composure for a moment. 'Wait... Could this person's target not be me?'

'Could it be that they learned of the existence of the [Myriad Calamities Gu] from the dragon centipede and the cicada? Impossible, how easy is it to search a Foundation Establishment cultivator's soul?'

Thinking of this, Longyue felt somewhat helpless. The [Myriad Calamities Gu] was the path she was on, and it was also the most precious treasure that the entire Ten Thousand Poisons Sect had placed its hopes on. It was absolutely impossible for her to let others take it away. To put it bluntly, compared to the [Myriad Calamities Gu], Lü Yang would rather have taken her body!
Longyue remained silent for a moment.

However, on the other side, Lü Yang, who was constantly watching her expression, narrowed his eyes. Although his face remained unchanged, doubts arose in his heart:

'This reaction...isn't right.'

'Although my goal for this trip is [Xin Jin], on the surface, as a sword cultivator, I have no need for it at all. This woman shouldn't be so cautious.'

Why did she hesitate?

Ultimately, logically speaking, the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect has nothing for me to demand; she should have acted openly and cooperated with my investigation.

Thinking about this, a conclusion naturally emerges:

'Unless... the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect possesses other valuable items besides [Xin Jin], enough to make her believe that even with my current cultivation level, I would be tempted?'

Unexpectedly, there was an unexpected gain!
While Lü Yang was already hatching a hundred schemes, Long Yue had just gathered her thoughts and whispered, "Long Yue doesn't know what you want me to say, fellow Daoist?"

Upon hearing this, Lü Yang pondered for a moment before raising his eyebrows and chuckling softly:
"Naturally, it's your Moon Worship Pool."

"That place is merely a secret realm of our sect, used to condense the Heavenly Gang and Earthly Fiends. It's of little use to a sword cultivator of your level, fellow Daoist, isn't it?"

Longyue's tone was calm, revealing neither joy nor anger.

Seeing this, Lü Yang nodded, deliberately showing a hint of mockery on his face: "I enjoy admiring the moon, and I have long admired your sect's Moon Worship Pool."

"Why don't you lead me on a tour, fellow Daoist?"

"I promise I'll just look from the outside and not go in."

"This"

Who was Lü Yang? Long Yue only hesitated for a fleeting moment, showing a hint of doubt, which he accurately detected, and drew his conclusion:

'Whether it's [Xin Jin] or some hidden treasures, they're all inside that Moon Worship Pool!'

Thinking of this, another idea popped into his head.

'【Drawing Lots to Determine Fate】!'

[Event: Uncover the hidden opportunities and secrets of the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect.]

[Great Misfortune: Your domineering and overbearing nature has finally angered True Person Longyue. She would rather destroy the divine artifact herself than hand it over to you, and she even used the full power of the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect to fight you to a standstill. Although you ultimately won, you ended up severely injured.]

[Minor Misfortune: You paid the price of severe injury to obtain "Xin Metal," but still missed out on a priceless treasure.]

[Suekichi: You used both soft and hard tactics to first appease Oborozuki, only turning your back on her after obtaining the "Xin Jin." Whether you can actually get the divine artifact is still uncertain.]

"."

With this fortune slip, Lü Yang had almost exhausted all the energy he had extracted from the entire Shenwu Sect, but the result surprised him greatly.

'This Ten Thousand Poisons Sect really knows what they're doing!'

After all, given the combat power of his clone, the fact that Longyue was able to fight him to a standstill shows that even a small sect should not be underestimated.

'After all, the Witchcraft and Ghostly Path can still produce a Patriarch of Listening to the Ghosts.'

With this thought in mind, Lü Yang drew the "Last Good Fortune" divination slip to see how things went. If things were truly hopeless, he wouldn't force it.

But in the next second——

"Boom!"

A violent tremor suddenly emanated from beneath the Wan Du Sect's mountain gate, impossible to conceal, and even caused the usually composed Long Yue to lose her composure.

Lu Yang looked around and saw that the man's expression was a mixture of surprise and delight.

The reason for their surprise was that Lü Yang had seen through their scheme.

As for joy, it's because...
'The Myriad Calamities Gu has actually been refined and released at this moment!?'
