"Old man, do you want to be given a chance to live?"

Lin Qingyu held the halberd upside down with one hand, its crimson tip pointing at the black-robed man at the bottom of the pit.

"What opportunity?"

The man in black robes' eyes flickered slightly, and he asked, following her words.

"Hand over that secret technique that can temporarily boost your strength."

Lin Qingyu's voice was calm, as if it were a matter of course.

"As long as the goods satisfy me, I will not only spare your life, but I will also forgive the offenses committed by your two foolish disciples."

This is also what interests her the most.

Those two women only had the cultivation level of the peak of Qi Refining, so how could they suddenly possess the combat power of Foundation Establishment?

And this man in black robes, in the instant of their exchange, his spiritual power also surged dramatically. Although he didn't break through the barrier of the mid-stage Core Formation realm, he was already very close.

Are you even speaking human language? You're already a bloody mess, why are you still arguing?

It would have been better if he hadn't mentioned it, but when he talked about those two disciples, the black-robed man felt a pang of heartache again. Those were the furnaces he had nurtured for over a hundred years!

I haven't even had a chance to enjoy it yet...

He took a deep breath, suppressing the resentment in his heart, and said coldly:

"Little girl, although our Ghost Control Sect isn't a major sect, my senior brother is a peak Golden Core cultivator. Are you sure you want to wipe them all out?"

"Hehe~"

Lin Qingyu sneered, her spiritual energy surging around her, as if she was about to make a move at any moment.

No matter how trashy the sect is, it doesn't deserve her to produce the perfect answer to the cultivation world's test—my Nascent Soul Grandmaster!

"etc!"

The man in black robes quickly waved his hand and tossed out a black jade slip.

Lin Qingyu did not accept it directly, but instead summoned Youyi from afar, and then glanced at the man in black robes with a half-smile.

"Old man, are you sure you didn't tamper with it?"

The black-robed man's lips twitched slightly as he took out another blue jade slip, forcing a smile onto his face.

"My old eyes are failing me; I took the wrong one."

Just as the jade slip was about to enter Lin Qingyu's hands, an even more sinister and eerie black mist erupted from the distant mountains and forests.

"Master, the secret realm has been opened."

Hearing the voice transmission in her ear, Lin Qingyu took the jade slip and nodded slightly without expression.

Her divine sense far surpassed that of the black-robed man; how could his subtle movements escape her notice? She was merely going along with the flow to see what he was up to.

After all, this so-called "Demon Control Sect" did indeed pique her interest.

In Lin Qingyu's view, those prestigious sects were too restrained in their actions. On the contrary, it was these unorthodox and shady sects that were most likely to produce truly good things in their pursuit of ultimate power.

Of course, this is under the premise that the term "time rewind" has cooled down.

Otherwise, given her cautious nature, she would have been ready to fight to the death the moment she made her move, instead of leisurely chatting with the other party.

"I forgot to ask you earlier, what exactly is hidden in that secret realm you mentioned?"

Lin Qingyu snapped out of her thoughts and looked at Youyi beside her, who was holding the black jade slip and examining it curiously.

"A ghost!"

"What?"

"I said they're all ghosts."

Before Youyi's voice had even faded, a sudden change occurred!

A terrifying phantom that blotted out the sky, carrying a thick black mist that seemed capable of devouring everything, rushed to the two people and the ghost in just a few breaths!

"Old ghost, what do you want with me?"

Upon seeing this, the black-robed cultivator quickly stepped forward and respectfully bowed.

"Lord Heart-Eating Marquis, I beg you to take action and eliminate this female cultivator for me! If you succeed, I am willing to offer three thousand living souls as a reward on behalf of my senior brother!"

Lin Qingyu examined the enormous ghostly figure with great interest, judging from its imposing aura that it should have reached the late stage of the Golden Core realm.

However... a pure vengeful ghost who has cultivated to the late Golden Core stage...?

The phantom was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, then its dark eyes turned towards the girl's location, and a strong greed suddenly shone in its eyes.

"Hehehe...Little girl, you smell wonderful!"

Accompanied by a chilling laugh, a cold aura rushed straight to his face.

Lin Qingyu was taken aback at first, then flew into a rage.

Being bullied in the simulation is bad enough, but in reality, being teased by ghosts is even worse?

Just as she was about to make her move, she noticed that the other person's gaze seemed to have fallen on Youyi beside her.

Lin Qingyu's lips twitched slightly, suppressing her anger, and she whistled softly as if nothing had happened...

"Master...Master..."

Youyi trembled with fright, and like a startled little quail, she quickly floated behind Lin Qingyu.

How does it resemble a red-clothed vengeful ghost at all?

The enormous ghostly figure then turned its gaze to the girl blocking its way, its brows furrowing tightly, its tone filled with disgust and loathing:

"Little girl, the smell on you is truly repulsive to ghosts."

"Can you guess why?"

Lin Qingyu's lips curled into a playful smile as she slowly rose until her body was level with the head of the enormous ghostly figure, at which point she leisurely stopped.

Why?

The ghostly figure stared ahead and asked instinctively.

Then he saw the girl grin, and a dazzling purple light leaped from her fingertips.

The moment the ghost saw that purple light, it felt a chill run through its entire body from the depths of its soul, almost scaring it away on the spot.

"Heavens... Thunder every single day!!!"

The enormous ghostly figure let out an extremely mournful howl, instinctively trying to shrink back into the ghostly mist.

"boom!"

Unfortunately, it was too late.

A thin bolt of purple lightning shot out from Lin Qingyu's hand, instantly piercing through layers of ghostly mist. With an aura of domineering destruction, it forcefully pinned the massive body of the ghostly figure to mid-air!

"Roar roar roar!!!"

No matter how frantically the ghost struggled, Zi Lei remained unmoved.

Moreover, the lightning, which contained the supreme yang and yang power of the Heavenly Dao, was also directly obliterating its yin and evil origins in an almost cruel way.

If ordinary thunder magic is the nemesis of ghosts, then this heavenly thunder, which contains a trace of the pressure of the heavenly Dao, is the ancestor of all evil things!

Lin Qingyu nodded in satisfaction; it was worth all the effort she had put into capturing that wisp of heavenly lightning.

Seed of the Dao: ?

"Youyi".

Lin Qingyu turned around, about to say something, but was surprised to find that Youyi had already hidden behind a tree hundreds of feet away, peeking out in their direction.

Several black lines immediately appeared on his forehead.

This ghost servant wasn't this timid last time, was she? Could it be that I was too forceful this time and scared her out of her wits?

Thinking of this, Lin Qingyu took a deep breath, forced what she thought was a gentle smile, and whispered in her voice:

"Youyi, come this way."

Unexpectedly, Youyi retreated instead of advancing upon hearing this, followed by a timid voice.

"Master, please stop laughing, I'm scared."

"Get over here."

Lin Qingyu's smile vanished, and her tone became extremely impatient.

"Whoosh~"

A figure in red appeared before her in an instant, but still glanced at the Ghost King who was wailing in pain with some fear.

"Go and swallow him later."

"I?"

Youyi pointed to herself in disbelief.

But under the girl's unquestionable gaze, he had no choice but to nod reluctantly.

Lin Qingyu smiled with satisfaction. Thinking of the secret technique recorded in the jade slip, she turned her gaze back to the black-robed cultivator below who was questioning his life.

"Fellow Daoist, I wonder what other treasures you possess...excuse me, I misspoke, do you have any other methods or techniques?"

Black-robed cultivator: You **********
