Immortal Demonic Path

Chapter 32 A Young Calf with High Ambition

After returning, Nie Qiu immediately went into seclusion in the weapon-refining room.

Li Changsheng continued his cultivation of weapon crafting, and his life remained unchanged.

If he didn't want to refine weapons, he would go out to read books and listen to the disciples talk about sect affairs.

"I heard that Changchun and Niu Wendao made a bet. This time, whoever can lead the sect to victory will be the senior disciple," said a disciple at the eighth level of Qi Refining.

"Changchun actually used his position as the senior disciple as a wager!"

A disciple at the seventh level of Qi Refining chimed in, "Such courage is truly admirable."

"Isn't it because Niu Wendao has been constantly pestering us, coveting the position of Senior Brother?"

"Senior Brother Changchun is devoted to the sect and doesn't want to continue fighting. He only wants to focus on external threats. Unlike him, a mere ox, what could he possibly understand?"

"You can't say that. Niu Wendao is already better than Changchun. It might really be better for him to be the senior disciple."

"Hmph, a demon, coveting the position of senior brother, his heart is already problematic."

"So what if he's a demon? He's still an ancient demon genius from my Lingxu Cave Heaven!"

Li Changsheng listened quietly, then turned and left.

Among the sect disciples, some supported Niu Wendao, while others supported Changchun.

After listening for only a short while, the two men's conversation had already become quite heated, showing signs of a fight breaking out. I quickly left to avoid being caught in the crossfire.

That hot-blooded young calf, as expected, still harbored wicked intentions and dreamed of becoming the senior disciple.

Changchun's move of retreating to advance was truly brilliant, winning him the favor of many disciples.

Using the position of senior disciple as a wager is clearly a trap set for Niu Wendao.

How could Changchun possibly give up the position of senior disciple?

If the position is relinquished, what about the successor to the sect leadership?

Barring unforeseen circumstances, the position of sect leader is usually passed down to the eldest disciple.

He shook his head and turned back to the weapon-refining room.

Going to Spirit Sword Peak now would be too conspicuous. I'll remind Niu Wendao when I have the chance later.

Process the materials and begin crafting again.

He had already tried it; the stone finger runes were also useful for high-grade magic artifacts.

Moreover, even a low-grade Foundation Establishment artifact cannot sever it.

Of course, it's just a common low-grade magic tool, not made of rare stones.

  

After processing the materials for refining weapons, Li Changsheng began his cultivation.

Life went on as usual, and the Three Clans Martial Arts Competition did not disrupt the rhythm of life.

In the blink of an eye, two months had passed, and Li Changsheng's physique had improved once again. In terms of Qi cultivation, he was not far from the late stage of the eighth level.

His Qi cultivation has also made some progress, and his sword techniques and spells are also advancing rapidly.

That night, Li Changsheng was cultivating when he heard a voice calling to him.

Li Changsheng opened his eyes and looked out the window. Niu Wendao was standing outside the formation.

Why is this calf coming to find me?

After leaving the room, they arrived at the formation's exit and welcomed Niu Wendao inside.

Before he could speak, Niu Wendao excitedly exclaimed, "Changsheng, the opportunity has arrived! I'll soon be the senior disciple, and the sect leader's successor will be me!"

Li Changsheng looked at the excited ox and asked, pondering whether he should pour cold water on him.

Niu Wendao continued, "Once I become the successor to the sect leader, you will come with me to Spirit Sword Peak. Absolutely no one will dare to bully you there."

"Life within the Qi Cultivation Sect is good; I'm quite satisfied." Li Changsheng sighed softly, then said, "Didn't you ever consider that this might be a trap? Why would Changchun gamble away the position of Senior Brother?"

"I know," Niu asked with a smile.

"You knew that, yet you still did it?" Li Changsheng asked in surprise.

"Chang Sheng, I want to be the senior disciple, and this is the only way," Niu Wendao said proudly. "My master also said it was a trap, but he still supports me. He believes in my strength. So what if it's a trap? I, Niu Wendao, will shatter his trap and take his position!"

They're really like newborn calves, so full of ambition!

Li Changsheng pondered for a moment and said, "It seems you already have a plan."

"Thanks to the stone finger you gave me, I have mastered it, and my bloodline has been restored somewhat."

The ox asked and replied, "That's why I'm confident. Although it's a trap, it's also an opportunity. If we miss this opportunity, we might never have another one."

Changchun completely grasped Niu Wendao's psychology, forcing him to accept the challenge.

Niu Wen continued, "I am now confident that I am invincible within the Qi Refining Realm. No matter how cunning Changchun is, he could never have predicted that I would make such progress."

"What if it's another sneak attack?" Li Changsheng said calmly.

Previously, the arrows used by the wielder injured the person who asked Niu Wendao, but they have not yet been found.

"Master has given me a new way to protect myself, those arrows definitely can't hurt me." Niu Wendao patted his chest and said, "Changsheng, you can rest assured. From now on, follow me, and I will lead Lingxu Cave Heaven to a higher level."

Seeing his appearance, Li Changsheng felt increasingly uneasy.

But Niu Wendao was in high spirits, his bloodline had been restored, and he was bursting with confidence. Everything seemed to be fine, so he couldn't say anything more.

"Then I wish you success, but be cautious in everything you do, it won't hurt," Li Changsheng said.

"Don't worry, there won't be any problems this time!" Niu asked, grinning. "By the way, will you be representing the Qi Clan?"

"I won't participate. I don't like being in the spotlight or attracting attention," Li Changsheng said. "I prefer peace and quiet."

"Oh, I thought we could participate together," Niu said, sounding somewhat disappointed.

Li Changsheng shook his head and said nothing more.

Niu Wendao said no more, left the weapon refiner, and returned to Spirit Sword Peak.

I hope my worries are unnecessary.

Li Changsheng sighed softly and focused on his cultivation.

He was thinking about a problem, and Changchun was a big problem!

Why did the sect leader cultivate Changchun in this way?

What's more, she's a half-demon!

They spared no effort in collecting demon cultivation techniques to research suitable cultivation methods for them.

Is Changchun Tianzi strong?

Can anyone ask the question of Niu Daoqiang?

"There's something wrong with this... never mind, it's not something I can investigate myself."

Li Changsheng shook off the thoughts in his mind.

He was actually quite interested in Changchun, for example, in his cultivation methods.

With half-human, half-demon blood, their cultivation methods are quite unique, and they have also collected demon cultivation methods.

The library in that prison only contained records of those at the Qi Refining Realm.

What about those in the Foundation Establishment stage?

What are your research findings?

These were the things he wanted, but considering his weak strength, he could only suppress all his thoughts.

As for asking Niu Wendao for help in seizing the Changchun martial arts manual?

Forget it, this is too much trouble for us!

Once they seize Changchun's martial arts techniques, it will send a message to Changchun that they know Changchun's identity.

He had warned Niu Wendao before that people or demons who knew too many secrets would be killed.

With the sect leader, who possesses the Golden Elixir Rejuvenation Pill, standing behind him, if he is truly forced to take action, who can stop him?

"No rush, wait patiently."

Li Changsheng thought to himself that he had plenty of time; the sect leader's lifespan of twenty or thirty years was very short compared to his.

If Changchun fails to grow and develop after the sect leader is gone, it will surely perish.

Even if they grow up, the children of Changchun will still have demon blood, and we will still need to continue to study them.

As long as you are patient, it's only a matter of time before you acquire these techniques.

I reminded myself again not to take any risks, and not to be like Niu Wen, asking this little calf for advice!

After figuring it out, he calmed down and continued his spiritual practice.
