I Possess a Scroll of Demon-Subduing Records

Sensing Lin Yi's unwavering conviction, Cui Pan's heart sank slightly.

He was in a bit of a dilemma. The man in front of him was much more determined than he had imagined. At first, when he saw Lin Yi retreat when things went wrong, he thought he was a coward who was afraid of death.

Who knew that Lin Yi was not afraid of gods and had such a firm will to fight? Now, the situation has reached a stalemate.

If I had known it would turn out this way, I wouldn't have pretended to be something I'm not.

Just let him go!

Why bother? Anyway, you'll end up in the underworld after you die.

Humans have short lifespans, at most a thousand years, and he can wait that long.

"Mortal, I advise you to beg for mercy now, and I might forgive you. Otherwise, when you die and fall into my hands, you will taste the most extreme pain in the world, and I am sure you will not be able to bear it."

"Stop talking so much nonsense, do you think you can't beat me?"

Lin Yi chuckled lightly, easily seeing through Cui Pan's scheme.

"In my life, I, Xiao Zhao, have experienced glory, destitution, failure, and exile, but I have never asked anyone for help. You've miscalculated!"

I wonder if this judge has some special abilities in the underworld. I'll just give him a fake name first.

After Lin Yi finished speaking, he unleashed countless sword energies. This was his mental world, where Cui Pan would lose his immunity to all attacks, because all attacks were essentially attacks at the soul level.

At this stage, it's a clash of souls; whoever is stronger wins. There aren't many tricks involved.

With Lin Yi's overwhelming momentum, Cui Pan naturally paled in comparison. Even though his Soul-Striking Whip and Soul-Hooking Rope were treasures specially crafted to carve souls, they couldn't withstand Lin Yi's relentless barrage.

Lin Yi felt that there was something strange about the weapon in Cui Pan's hand, so he dared not get close.

Anyway, he's got plenty of energy, so he can just fry it up for me!

After a prolonged standoff, Cui Pan's clothes were torn to shreds by Lin Yi's bombs. Although the damage was not severe, the humiliation was immense.

In contrast, Lin Yi always managed to dodge the Soul-Hooking Rope and the Soul-Striking Whip with his skillful maneuvering.

This is the home-field advantage. Lin Yi has retained all his strength and characteristics, possessing supernatural eyes and extreme reaction speed.

Now that Cui Pan has lost his Great Bone Hand and the Yellow Spring Water, he only has two very powerful but ineffective weapons. How could he be a match for Lin Yi?

"Hey, you can't hit it."

"Hey, missed again!"

"Take this, my greatsword!"

Lin Yi dodged while making sarcastic remarks, which angered Cui Pan so much that his blood pressure kept rising.

"Mortal, you have angered me!"

"This only proves that you're a piece of trash, a god whose six senses are impure, what kind of god are you!"

Judge Cui was speechless, but his anger surged. At this moment, black energy surged around him, and his eyes became exceptionally sharp.

Judge Cui knew he was no match for Lin Yi in his spiritual world, so rather than continue to be humiliated by the petty thief, he decided to make a clean break.

He began to rapidly form hand seals, and a black lotus flower quickly took shape in his hands.

"Six Paths of Reincarnation Seal!"

This move looked very powerful, so Lin Yi quickly used the Tortoise Shell Protection to protect himself. However, the lotus flower exploded in Cui Pan's hand, blasting Cui Pan into nothingness. Only a voice still echoed.

"We will meet again someday, and then we will repay today's humiliation a hundredfold!"

Even after the sound faded, Lin Yi still felt a sense of unreality.

Did this guy unleash a powerful attack and blow himself up?

I've already won?

It's not that I felt no sense of accomplishment, but rather that it felt somewhat unreal.

At that moment, he seemed to see some gold dust drifting out, and at the end of it was the Demon-Slaying Manual emitting a faint light.

Gold dust drifted into the Demon-Slaying Manual, and soon a golden page appeared in the table of contents.

In the upper right corner, there is an ancient-looking character – God.

Lin Yi was stunned on the spot. So even gods are within your hunting range?

Demons, ghosts, monsters, and gods are now classified into five categories.

The demon lord Cui was probably not killed, so the Demon-Slaying Manual didn't increase his cultivation level, but it did open a new chapter for the manual.

The battle ended, and Lin Yi awoke from his mental world to find the real world in complete chaos.

The Yellow Springs Water and the giant skeletal hand have vanished without a trace, but traces of them remain scattered across the ground.

The grass and trees are withered and yellow, and the ground is cracked everywhere. What was once a vibrant place has now become a wasteland.

Lin Yi sighed inwardly, and without lingering any longer, he put the Demon-Slaying Sword into his cloud bag and went to meet up with Bai Lianxian.

Bai Lianxian had been silently observing the battle. Seeing Lin Yi and Cui Pan fighting, she knew she couldn't help.

Her greatest strength is her poison, but this skeleton is immune to poison!

Fortunately, it seemed that Lin Yi had won. To be on the safe side, Bai Lianxian still asked, "Answer something that only you and I know."

"you******?"

Bai Lianxian: "..."

Did you notice all of that?

Although she is usually very sexy and alluring when she is with Lin Yi, she still feels a little shy when Lin Yi points out her physical characteristics.

"Fine, I believe it's you."

If it were a case of possession, it wouldn't be possible to learn the host's memories in a short time, so Bai Lianxian was indeed relieved.

"What is that person's background? I have a feeling he is extraordinary."

Bai Lianxian didn't associate the name Cui Pan with a judge; Lin Yi only thought of a judge because the other party said he was a deity with the title Cui Pan.

Then, after he mentioned things like the eighteen levels of hell, as well as weapons and personal appearance, Lin Yi was finally able to confirm this.

Upon hearing Bai Lianxian's question, Lin Yi hesitated whether to tell Bai Lianxian about the underworld.

He never expected that he could catch such a big fish while just squatting for a regular person. He didn't know whether to say he was lucky or unlucky.

But judging from what happened tonight, this matter is not simple at all.

The Pure Heaven Sect is infamous among the four major demonic sects, but its publicly disclosed strength only includes one first-rank expert.

But who would have thought that if even a mere Hades King could summon a Yin God far surpassing an ordinary first-rank expert, what could the even higher-ranking Two Eyes and Earth Mother possibly do?

Moreover, the Jingtian Sect worships the revered deity Taihao, so how did it become associated with the underworld?

Lin Yi was puzzled, but his intuition told him that there was definitely a big problem here.

"You're so hesitant, it seems like something serious is going on."

Seeing that Lin Yi didn't answer and looked hesitant, Bai Lianxian roughly guessed what was going on.

"Don't worry about me. If you need anything, I can help you. If you really don't want to talk about it, that's okay too."

Lin Yi was touched by Bai Lianxian's words. Bai Lianxian was quite sensible. The snake demon lady was understanding in bed and kind in bed. She was indeed quite nice.

Lin Yi felt that he was no longer afraid of snakes.

"It's not that I can't or don't want to talk about this, but it may involve some secrets and power struggles, which may drag you into it as well."

"What's so exciting?"

Bai Lianxian looked at him with an expression of great curiosity, as if she wanted to hear some gossip. Lin Yi shook his head helplessly and said, "That person just now was a Yin God from the Underworld."

"Huh? The underworld really exists?"

Bai Lianxian's shocked expression was rather cute.

Why do you think it doesn't exist?

"Because I've never seen it before? I've lived for quite a long time, and although I've heard legends about the underworld, I've never actually seen it."

"Maybe all they saw were dead people!"

"Makes sense."

Bai Lianxian nodded, then tilted her head and said, "To be able to get a god to intervene, the Jingtian Sect is no ordinary sect! I thought the Taihao they worshipped was just something they made up!"

Bai Lianxian had her own logic in thinking this way. Since the Qin and Han dynasties, human history had experienced a major break in continuity, resulting in the loss of a large amount of knowledge and tradition.

How could the people of the Pure Heaven Sect know that the god who created heaven and earth was Taihao?

Are you still able to be there?

Most cultivators do not believe the claims made by the Pure Heaven Sect.

However, most cultivators generally believe that there were gods who created the world and created humankind.

There are various folk tales and interpretations, but since they don't affect spiritual practice, it's okay to believe a little bit.

Sects like the Jingtian Sect have become obsessed.

What I didn't expect was that the seemingly obsessed Jingtian Sect wasn't actually obsessed; they really could communicate with the gods!

"So what should we do next?"

"Let nature take its course, and act when the time is right. The most important thing right now is the debate between Buddhism and Taoism."

Lin Yi knew in his heart that the Pure Heaven Sect was like a huge bomb; if it really exploded, the damage it would cause would be considerable.

But it's probably not time for it to explode yet, so there's no need to rush. Let's clear the mines that are about to explode first.

Lin Yi put the matter of Judge Cui aside for the time being and went back to the inn to deal with it later.

Actually, time is quite tight. He Dong is less than a hundred years away from transcending the tribulation, and Lin Yi will only feel at ease when he has accumulated a million years of cultivation.

Judging from the current trend, it would be safer to accumulate 20,000 years of cultivation in a year.

The pressure to meet performance targets is indeed quite significant.

Lin Yi was unaware that He Dong had already arrived at the headquarters of the Hundred Ghosts Sect.

The Thousand Illusion Ghost Princess was already waiting in the mountains, and no one stopped He Dong as she walked up the mountain.

In the Hundred Ghosts Sect, ghosts that can walk independently are all formidable figures and not to be trifled with!
