Become a true immortal by emulating all demons.

Chapter 102 The Wolf Lord Grows Up, Taiyin Blood Illuminates

"I!"

Under the trembling gazes of the crowd, Feng Yinglong's face twitched slightly, his throat bobbed, and he uttered a single, loud word.

He stared intently at Yu Sheng, his eyes, filled with extreme anger, gradually darkening.

The raging, roaring spiritual energy around them quietly subsided and then quickly dissipated.

The Core Formation cultivator lowered his proud head, his voice becoming hoarse and weak: "Nothing much."

If nothing unexpected happens, Yu Sheng will soon become a figure as esteemed as her master.

Even now, as a disciple of the Yu family, he could not possibly do anything to the Yu family's immortal descendants.

Yu Sheng will definitely pay the price for those two slaps.

Because she wasn't slapping her own face, but rather challenging her master, Yu Duchuan.

But not now.

"snort!"

Yu Sheng jumped off the bench.

The hand hidden in the sleeve is still trembling with anger.

Even if they received the news in advance through telepathic communication.

But Lin Shu had just fought a battle with someone, and it was against so many enemy cultivators carrying jade tokens.

She was filled with worry and hadn't even had a chance to check if the other person was injured.

In this situation, the first thing this person did was interrogate Lin Shu!

How could Yu Sheng possibly accept such a thing?

With just one word from Lin Shu, she rushed forward without hesitation!

"Get out!"

She turned around and thought about it, but was still not satisfied. She turned back and kicked the other person in the knee again.

"..."

Feng Yinglong remained silent for a moment, then turned and walked out of the inn.

As soon as he stepped out of the gate, he transformed into a streak of light and sped towards the city lord's mansion, clearly heading back to complain.

Fan Qingyang watched his senior brother leave.

He could almost picture the other person's ugly face, embellishing the truth.

I will omit the details of my previous provocations, but I will repeatedly emphasize the two slaps I received in the face.

After this incident...

The conflict between Master and Yu Sheng is likely to escalate further.

"I will take charge of matters involving demons from now on."

Fan Qingyang nodded respectfully to the master and apprentice.

Fortunately, although he had previously looked down on the two of them somewhat, he had never made it outwardly, so at least he wouldn't feel so awkward now.

As he spoke, he couldn't help but glance at Lin Shu again, his eyes flashing with a complex emotion.

To say that one doesn't envy the other person's status would seem somewhat hypocritical.

As the only disciple of the Immortal Descendants, once Yu Sheng comes of age, with those tens of thousands of merit points, he might actually be able to break the rules and become the first disciple of the Yu family to establish his foundation with the Azure Bird Qi-Inducing Technique.

But it's just envy.

If Fan Qingyang were to switch places with Yu Sheng, he wouldn't be confident he could earn that much inherited spiritual light.

They transformed a congenitally deformed immortal into the stunningly beautiful being she is today.

Moreover… Fan Qingyang glanced at the spirit tiger jade tablet on the table and quietly shivered.

If I were Lin Shu, I would already be buried beyond the Great Wall tonight.

Those who possess the immortal jade tablet are far superior to the scoundrels from the Liu family last time.

He single-handedly faced eight well-prepared Foundation Establishment cultivators and killed them all. The sheer terror of this achievement can only be described as astonishing!

He even felt that without Yu Sheng...

Based on her own strength alone, Lin Shu might be qualified to exchange blows with Senior Brother Feng.

"Are there really monsters?"

Lin Shu stopped playing with the jade pendant, a hint of doubt appearing in her eyes.

"You don't think Senior Brother Feng is joking, do you?" Fan Qingyang's face froze instantly.

"I thought he was deliberately picking a fight with me." Lin Shu put down the jade token in her hand and sat up slightly. "Where did this demon come from?"

Upon hearing this, the Chen family disciples slowly recovered from the shock of being beaten by a Core Formation cultivator.

Their faces turned ashamed, and they almost covered their faces, whispering, "Senior Brother Lin, we were the ones who brought this here."

"call."

Fan Qingyang's eyes were strange. After a long while, he let out a long sigh.

So the other party really didn't encounter any monsters and just walked back safely.

Sure enough, these famous people all have some great fortune to rely on!

"This matter may be related to the descendants of the Chen family, but there is still a lack of evidence, so I can't say anything rashly. But don't worry, there will be results soon."

He stood at the door, watching over the group of disciples, and waited patiently.

"Then I'll go and adjust my breathing first."

Lin Shu rubbed her arms, got up and walked upstairs.

After being so busy for so long, it's time to take stock of what we've accomplished.

He returned to the guest room and had just reached the bedside when Yu Sheng secretly lifted the door and slipped in.

"Have you been slacking off lately?"

Lin Shu sat quietly, dressed in a dark blue robe.

"I guarantee I'll complete the mission!" Yu Sheng clenched her little fist and responded earnestly, then grinned and came closer.

She buried her delicate face in the young man's arms, took a deep breath, and then stood up contentedly.

Only when the two of them are together can Yu Sheng sink into a state of complete peace and security.

"Don't be ridiculous."

Lin Shu had no choice but to pull it away.

This little chick is growing up too fast; it still has all the habits of an infant.

But she's still a young woman, so when I have some free time, I'll need to teach her about the differences between men and women.

"come over."

Lin Shu brought two fingers together and took out a wisp of inherited spiritual light from her storage bag.

"good!"

When serious matters were mentioned, Yu Sheng immediately abandoned her playful demeanor.

The girl obediently closed her eyes, waiting for the young man to press that wisp of spiritual light into her brow.

"Aside from the one in the dilapidated courtyard, you have already digested twenty inherited spiritual lights. You will soon be able to truly grow up and possess strength comparable to the Core Formation stage. When that time comes, even if I am not by your side, you will have to learn to handle many things on your own."

Lin Shu gave a rare long explanation.

He realized that he had been getting too close to those monsters lately.

Even if a deity were alive, he wouldn't dare say that he could calculate everything perfectly.

Besides, I am just an ordinary mortal.

He must be prepared for things to be exposed at any time.

"..."

Yu Sheng opened her eyes in a daze, as if she had noticed something was wrong.

The next moment, the girl squatted down on the ground and, in a spoiled manner, covered her ears with her fingers: "I don't want to hear it, I don't want to hear it, you're just spouting nonsense!"

Immediately following that, he received a flick on the forehead.

She rubbed her forehead and suddenly hugged the young man's leg tightly: "Anyway, I don't care, I'll follow you wherever you go."

"Go and digest the inspiration."

Lin Shu smiled silently.

He hadn't expected that the little chick who had been crying and begging to get its essence back would now have a completely different attitude.

It was just a casual remark, there's no need to take it seriously.

"Oops, I'll be keeping an eye on you!"

Yu Sheng stretched out two fingertips to prop up her eyelids, first making a face, then leaving the room while looking back every few steps.

"call."

The room was quiet. Lin Shu slightly raised her eyes and summoned the Good Deeds and Evil Money.

"Murderers and arsonists wear golden belts, while those who repair bridges and roads leave no trace of their bodies; the one who kills a mere mortal is rewarded with twelve strings of cash."

A total of eight similar prompts appeared.

Those Zhao family disciples had all reached the limit of the Foundation Establishment stage, and their value was exactly the same, earning them ninety-six strings of black coins.

Of course, this limit does not include the disciples of the sect leader.

After all, with the exception of Xie Yutang.

Normal disciples of the sect leader have no need to set foot in the mortal world unless they encounter a bottleneck in their cultivation and need to experience the world to temper their character.

They only need to focus on their cultivation and try their best to obtain a high-quality golden elixir.

As for combat experience, immortals will specially train them, and may even summon all kinds of cultivators to demonstrate different techniques to them.

Such treatment, any one of which could be given to a disciple of Xing Shi would make him laugh in his dreams.

All these disciples of the mountain sect need to do is fight a battle for the immortals when necessary.

Furthermore, the only things that would get them involved are either provocations from a notorious demon or conflicts between two major immortal sects.

It's a once-in-a-century event.

While feeling envious, Lin Shu thought of Yunniang again.

This girl has an innate sword heart warning system, and with such good treatment, as long as she doesn't intentionally kill herself, she's much safer than us.

"Murderers and arsonists wear golden belts, while those who repair bridges and roads leave no trace of their bodies; the one who kills a mere mortal is rewarded with fifteen strings of cash."

[Murderers and arsonists wear golden belts, while those who repair bridges and roads leave no trace of their victims; the one who kills a mere mortal is rewarded with nine strings of cash.]

Including Chen Xiangzhu and Steward Luo, they received a total of 120 strings of cash.

Compared to the Core Formation Method, it's not much, but it's close to Lin Shu's attendance over the previous month.

Good deeds have become much less frequent.

Those dozen or so Chen family disciples, most of whom were Qi Refining cultivators, together only had nineteen strings of cash.

Including the sixty-odd strings of cash they had saved up, they had finally gathered eighty strings of cash. They were just waiting for Yu Sheng to unleash his immortal energy so they could give it a try.

"Ugh."

Lin Shu sighed softly.

Yongzhou Pass is essentially a training ground for Foundation Establishment disciples; their limits, whether they kill or save, are limited to this area.

Unless, Yu Sheng intends to get involved in the affairs of the adult immortals and compete with Yu Duchuan and others for food.

As long as you speak up, the chicks definitely won't have any objections.

But thinking of the calamity that would occur two months later, Lin Shu decisively dismissed the idea.

Whether or not to fight for it is another matter. If he really becomes the city lord, he will have to step up and face the siege of the Great Shun cultivators and demons.

Relying on his half-baked Body Tempering and Core Formation skills, this is no joke.

Besides, he was unwilling to risk his life for the Yu family to that extent.

"I've been feeding you for so long, it's time to give you something in return."

A hint of anticipation appeared in Lin Shu's eyes as she summoned the Filthy Moon Wolf Lord.

The wolf cubs have grown much stronger, with ferocious fangs, bloodshot eyes, and increasingly sharp protrusions on their foreheads.

Its body hair was dark and shiny, with blood vessels surging within, which even made Lin Shu feel slightly wary.

He gently waved his sleeve.

One hundred and twenty strings of tainted money poured into it.

In an instant, the ink light intensified, plunging the entire room into darkness.

[Foundation Establishment Grade One. Moon Devouring Soul Shattering Curse: Perfected]

The threshold that was just one step away from being crossed has finally changed with the help of so much ill-gotten money.

boom!

A deafening roar filled Lin Shu's ears, momentarily blurring his consciousness.

When his vision cleared again, he found himself in a hazy, dark mist, as if his sight and hearing had been simultaneously obscured.

All that remained was the pounding of my heart like a heavy drumbeat!

Until the clouds parted, a bright moon hung in the sky.

Lin Shu subconsciously looked up.

But they soon realized something was wrong.

The moon quickly turned a dark red, eerie and bewitching, its surface surging like magma.

Until a dark red hue flowed down from the sky.

The moon... is bleeding!

Lin Shu felt the blood dripping onto his skin, and his powerful, tempered body sizzled as it was quickly corroded to the bone.

A drop of blood seeped into the space between his eyebrows, and even his soul began to dissolve.

[Eighth Grade of Core Formation. Taiyin Blood Illumination: Introduction]

The prompt appears.

He suddenly returned to the room, silently staring at the surrounding furnishings, a lingering fear still in his eyes.

After processing the extra information in her mind, Lin Shu felt a slight jolt in her heart.

No, this technique is no longer a simple illusion.

The Body Tempering Method for Core Formation relies on blood and qi, while the Netherworld Cold Mist Thunder borrows some rather unorthodox thunderous energy from the world.

The source of this Taiyin Blood Illumination is the bright moon in the world.

It erodes the moonlight with resentment, transforming it into such a horrifying form that it can destroy the soul and melt the bones.

It harms both the spirit and the body!

"As expected of a half-life immortal technique, even at the same grade, it is a level higher than the methods of a rogue immortal."

Lin Shu suppressed her emotions and glanced at the huge black shadow crawling beside her.

The wolf cub phantom, which was originally the size of a palm, has now transformed into a ferocious creature half the height of a person, with a body length of over ten feet.

It looks more like an adult male tiger than a wolf.

Its eyes were like glass, its fangs like blood jade, and two sharp horns protruded from its forehead.

Its body hair was extremely long, and the originally free blood energy had now turned into blood patterns and was branded on its thick limbs.

Finally, he showed a hint of the fierce temperament of a wolf lord.

[Having consumed a hundred strings of cash through dishonest means, he has become an evil immortal.]

[Half-Life Immortal. Lord of the Filthy Moon Wolf: Adulthood]

"It's gotten so ugly it's almost terrifying..."

Lin Shu sighed softly, but quickly shook her head to dispel the distracting thoughts.

Anyway, no one else can see it, so why care about these things?

The most important thing is strength.

He suddenly waved his sleeve, and the enormous wolf lord transformed into a long river of black mist that surged into the dark blue robe.

In an instant, solidified black flames flowed from his sleeves and quickly spread throughout the entire room.

With the "Celestial Root" in his possession, Lin Shu deliberately concealed his aura, preventing it from leaking out.

He slowly rose, carefully sensing the vast, turbulent magical power that had suddenly appeared on his body.

As the black flames surged, Lin Shu's pupils gradually transformed into clear, glassy eyes, like those of a wolf lord, their dark red color radiating a chilling ferocity.

Just like the blood-red moon in the sky when the Taiyin Blood Radiance is cast.

"As expected, he's at the Core Formation stage!"

"I just don't know what level that would be considered in the Core Formation Realm."

Lin Shu adjusted her breathing, her dark blue robe billowing in the black flames.

The room was deathly silent and dark, with only those dark red eyes clearly visible.

Based on the experience of borrowing magic for the first time in Blackwater City, it should be just around the stage of Core Formation.

But that's enough.

You should know that when Lin Shu used lightning magic before, it looked like a small ball of lightning, but in reality, it drained nearly 70% of his Dao essence.

Now that we have the Wolf Lord's magical power, at least using these Core Formation Immortal Techniques won't be so difficult.

Aside from the progress made by the Wolf Lord and the Immortals.

There is another thing that has also been greatly improved.

Half-Immortal: A Soul Divided by a Thousand Threads

The moment the Wolf Lord came of age, Lin Shu noticed that the strength of his soul had also increased several times over.

However, he is not yet very good at using this intangible thing.

For now, it should be possible to try to split the soul into several parts, or to condense a more powerful split soul.

If one encounters a cultivator skilled in attacking the soul, even without taking any precautions, one can withstand several immortal spells simply by relying on the strength of one's soul.

"withdraw."

Lin Shu casually made hand gestures.

The wolf lord surged out of his body, its enormous form shrinking to the size of a palm before disappearing back into his body and returning to his empty heart cavity.

His eyes returned to their clear, black-and-white state, and he stood there lost in thought.

With this level of cultivation, shouldn't we consider doing something sneaky?

However, it seems that both the demons and the immortals of Yongzhou Pass are quite cautious at present.

The Great Shun Dynasty was probably preparing for what was to come and didn't make any major moves.

The border is like a stagnant pool; it would be great if a big fish could sneak in and stir it up.

As he was thinking, several auras suddenly rushed over from outside the inn.

"Found it!"

"..."

Lin Shu moved slightly and had already walked down the stairs.

Hearing the commotion, Yu Sheng and Yan Jin quickly followed.

Seven or eight disciples dressed in plain clothes walked in, looking travel-worn, and asked empty-handed, "Where is Senior Brother Feng?"

"Senior Brother Feng is going back first." Fan Qingyang stepped aside to make way for him.

"Chen Xiangzhu is dead, and her remains have not been found."

Several disciples made surprising remarks.

The first sentence caused many Chen family disciples to turn pale, their eyes filled with confusion.

Although they could roughly guess what had happened from Lu Yun's words.

But if their master is gone, it means they will become rogue cultivators, and can only wait for a new descendant of the Chen family to come and take over.

"Since no remains have been found, how can you be so sure that the person is dead?" Fan Qingyang asked, somewhat puzzled.

"..."

The disciples exchanged glances, a hint of fear flashing across their faces. They smiled bitterly and said, "If we hadn't been so slow, we probably wouldn't have made it back either."

As they spoke, they made hand gestures.

A curtain of water appeared in mid-air.

This is just a trick, similar to using spiritual power to create art.

The area within the water curtain was clearly near the Demon Mountain, but there was no one there.

Only two large characters smeared with blood plasma remain.

Upon seeing the familiar handwriting, everyone in the inn felt their hearts race and fell silent.

Finally, Fan Qingyang, his mouth dry, broke the deadlock: "It was the Moon-Devouring Demon General again. Why does it keep targeting the immortal descendants of Stone Lake City?"

"Why don't you ask this descendant of the Chen family why he went to the side of the demon mountain in the middle of the night?"

The disciples in plain clothes spoke with a hint of anger, clearly dissatisfied that they had almost been killed by Chen Xiangzhu.

"Moreover, it's not just about devouring the moon."

"There are at least two demon generals still standing there. We compared them using the Demon Slayer Manual, and they are Qingming and Duan Yue."

"You should know that the Demon General Duan Yue has never intended to take the lead. Now, not only has he come out of the mountains, but he has also joined forces with other demon generals to deliberately leave his aura there, which clearly carries a provocative meaning."

"We initially thought there might not be a demon general like the Moon Devourer, and that it might be a smokescreen. But now it seems that it not only really exists, but it is also extremely resourceful and has terrifying ambitions."

"Something terrible is about to happen!"

Clearly, faced with the strange behavior of the demon mountain, Chen Xiangzhu's death suddenly became unimportant.

"I suspect that this Moon-Eating Demon General is probably not someone who just came down from the mountain, but rather someone who came from the Great Shun Dynasty. Perhaps it is even acting on the orders of a certain demon lord, which is why even the Broken Mountain Demon General has to obey its orders."

The disciples discussed amongst themselves, their worries barely concealed.

After all, the Moon Devouring Demon General chose Stone Lake City for his two consecutive attacks.

If they really do something, Master will definitely be under a lot of pressure, and that pressure will naturally fall on them as well.

"Don't panic."

Fan Qingyang licked his dry lips and said slowly, "The Demon Slayer Division will be here soon."

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the disciples in plain clothes softened somewhat.

When it comes to fighting against humans, the Demon Slayer Division may be nothing compared to many immortals.

But it's more like searching for shadows and slaying demons.

That's one of their specialties.

"..."

Lin Shu listened quietly to the disciples' conversation, then slowly walked to the table and sat down.

He reached up and rubbed his temples.

This is because they felt that a fabricated demonic name alone could not completely divert the attention of Yongzhou Pass.

That's why Old Xu deliberately left behind demonic energy, completely confirming the existence of the Moon-Devouring Demon General.

Lin Shu really didn't want to owe anyone a favor.

Perhaps the demon didn't intend for him to repay the debt.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have waited until he left before leaving their presence.

Lin Shu could simply pretend she hadn't heard the disciples' conversation.

But why do I feel more and more annoyed the more I think about it?
