After the destruction of the Immortal Realm, I took in the fallen fairy.

In an instant, Ling Qiuyuan's gaze sharpened.

He looked at Lin Heng, but Lin Heng's smiling eyes did not look away at him at all.

Ling Qiuyuan frowned and thought to himself.

Although he had never met the Five Source Immortal Venerables.

However, based on the information currently available to the Dark Sect, the Five Source Immortal Venerable, who has been living in seclusion for many years, is not only proficient in constructing arrays, but has also established an ancient sect that has never been heard of before.

Even the little girl with the fire elemental root who works for him is at the Nascent Soul stage, and her own strength is probably already comparable to that of the Prime Minister.

If he were to actually lead a group to rob them, even with the boost from activating demonic energy, he would have at least a 90% chance of defeating the Enlightenment Realm fairy beside Lin Heng.

But if the Five Sources Immortal Venerable descends in person, I'm afraid not only will I be unable to bring the person back, but I won't even be able to return to the Dark Sect myself...

And this is probably the fundamental reason why Lin Heng is now able to act with such impunity.

Taking a deep breath, Ling Qiuyuan asked Lin Heng in a low voice, "So, your words represent the meaning of the Five Source Immortal Venerable?"

"What else?"

Lin Heng shrugged, saying casually, "If the Five Sources Immortal Venerable hadn't given instructions, would I have given you such an easy answer?"

"Very well, I will convey the Five Elements Immortal Venerable's message to the Prime Minister."

Ling Qiuyuan nodded slowly, then sat down again.

However, Zhu Wushu, who was standing next to him, turned his head and looked at him with surprise.

You see, in her memory, this old guy was not one to give up easily.

in contrast.

Everyone in the Dark Sect knows that Ling Qiuyuan is often ruthless in achieving his goals.

Moreover, those consumables were a task personally assigned to the elders by their Dark Sect Master...

"The Dark Raven Fairy"

At this moment, Ling Qiuyuan slowly spoke up and said, "Since you have reached a deal, and it concerns recruiting outstanding new talents for our Dark Sect, then I will accompany you to Zhengzhong Village so that he can witness our true Dark Sect techniques."

"Um?"

Zhu Wushu was taken aback at first, then his eyes widened immediately: "Fourth Elder, you mean to...?"

"What's wrong?"

Ling Qiuyuan immediately interrupted, "As an elder of the Dark Sect, am I not allowed to supervise outsiders examining our Dark Sect's secrets?"

"Of course."

Zhu Wushu took a deep breath and then looked at Lin Heng: "Young Master Lin Heng, are you now willing to go and take a look at Zhengzhong Village?"

"Go ahead, I have nothing else to do anyway."

Lin Heng stretched lazily and stood up seemingly casually.

However, in his heart, he was already earnestly instructing Yun Qinghe: "After we arrive at the destination, use the power of rules to sense the secrets of that Dark Sect technique. It is very likely related to the Demon Tide."

"Um!"

At this moment, Zhu Wushu also said to Lin Heng, "Young Master Lin Heng, please. Zhengzhong Village is located in the northern suburbs of Raoxian City."

After seeing that Lin Heng and Yun Qinghe had already left, she turned around and whispered to Ling Qiuyuan who was following behind, "Fourth Elder, I know what you want to do, but Lin Heng is a talent that I value."

"rest assured."

Ling Qiuyuan said casually, "Although I am considering the Prime Minister's supplies, I will not cause any losses to our branch. After all, the Prime Minister just broke through recently, and our Dark Sect has only just officially expanded... I will spare the life of the person you want."

"Hmph, I hope you don't go back on your word."

After saying this, Zhu Wushu also left the inn.

……

The four left Raoxian City and flew directly to the northern suburbs.

Throughout the process, Yun Qinghe was prepared to mobilize her spiritual power at any time, while Lin Heng was paying attention to the changes around him.

However, Ling Qiuyuan and Zhu Wushu simply led the way without making any moves.

Before long, the two people in front stopped in mid-air.

At that moment, Yun Qinghe looked down at a village and said, "Husband, that's Zhengzhong Village over there... Wait, why does it look different from when I came here before?!"

To her surprise, what was once just an ordinary village was now permeated with a demonic aura far more intense than that of Raoxian City.

Moreover, rings of ore have appeared all around the village...

Although she wasn't an expert in array formation, having been by Lin Heng's side for so long, she could roughly recognize it: "This, this is array formation?"

"That's right."

Lin Heng nodded slowly. "These arrays are used to convert spiritual energy into demonic energy. But... there should be more than that."

He carefully observed the power of the rules in this array, and Lin Heng was very familiar with the power of the rules in this array.

It is similar to the upgraded version of the Demon-Shielding Array, and also to the Spirit-Restoring Array that gathers spiritual energy.

However, the proportion of rule power used in this array is completely opposite to the two arrays he is familiar with.

What Lin Heng found even more intriguing was that this array seemed to contain a power of rules he had never encountered before…

"It seems you have indeed mastered exquisite array-construction techniques under the Five Sources Immortal Venerable?"

Suddenly, Ling Qiuyuan turned his head and glanced at Lin Heng, who was staring intently at the formation.

Lin Heng snapped out of his reverie and narrowed his eyes slightly as he looked at him: "So, the sect leader of the Dark Sect, who is also your prime minister, is also a formation master?"

"certainly."

Ling Qiuyuan did not deny it, but said calmly, "The formation of Zhengzhong Village was a gift from the Prime Minister to Fairy Dark Raven."

At this moment, Zhu Wushu said with a smile, "Young Master Lin Heng, go down and take a look. You can't see our Dark Sect's techniques clearly up here."

As he spoke, he and Ling Qiuyuan landed first, followed closely by Lin Heng and Yun Qinghe.

Even before the seeds had fully fallen, they were already able to see the people in Zhengzhong Village clearly.

Most of them were Dark Sect disciples trained by Zhu Wushu as core disciples, but they were different from the Dark Sect disciples in Raoxian City.

Only by deliberately using spiritual power can one detect the presence of demonic energy within the dark sect cultivators in Raoxian City.

However, many of the Dark Sect disciples in Zhengzhong Village were directly transformed into demons.

There were low-level demonic worms and mutated filthy rats, as well as slightly higher-level corrosive scorpions and rock-armored demonic bears...

They can switch between human and monster forms at any time.

For example, the cultivator who walked towards the earthen house in the center of the village turned into a rock-armored demon bear right in front of the house.

Bang!

The rock-armored demon bear smashed the wooden door of the earthen house with a single slap.

Immediately afterwards, the thick bear paw grabbed a rabbit fairy's rabbit ear and pulled it out from inside.

Without pausing for a moment, he immediately...

"this……"

As soon as Yun Qinghe landed, she immediately turned her head away.

Because the rock-armored demonic bear, even though there were still people walking around on the street, immediately unleashed its spiritual root and forcefully entered the rabbit immortal's spiritual root, extracting its spiritual power...
