I Possess a Scroll of Demon-Subduing Records

Lin Yi focused his energy in his dantian, opened his mouth, and let out a loud shout.

Visible waves of sound emanated from his mouth, crashing against the walls and then rapidly reverberating outwards.

The rats were hit by the sound waves and were instantly shattered into pieces, as if the space itself was vibrating.

Lin Yi shouted, only to realize that this method of killing monsters was much more efficient than setting fires.

He put away the foxfire, focused his energy in his dantian again, and roared once more.

Rats fell from the wall like rain, and Lin Yi's cultivation level increased rapidly.

At this rate, his cultivation level might double by the time he leaves.

He just didn't know how his Heavenly Tribulation should be calculated now. Ever since the Dragon Wolf King and Gou Quan, two cultivators whose Heavenly Tribulation was not counted, joined the team, Lin Yi felt that the Heavenly Tribulation system of the Demon Subduing Manual seemed to have a bug.

When he undergoes his next tribulation, should he fill the Blood Sacrifice Array with 10,500 years of cultivation, or should he set it up with 26,000 years of cultivation?

If it's the former, then it's relatively simple; if it's the latter, then the average cultivation level of the four categories of demons, monsters, and ghosts would be close to seven thousand years.

The monsters he's killing now are all stored up, and they haven't been used on Lin Yi yet.

Lin Yi had no choice but to temporarily ignore the Heavenly Tribulation and continue farming. After all, cultivation wasn't like a bank account; he could save it if he could, and the Demon-Slaying Manual wouldn't prevent him from withdrawing it.

At the bottomless pit, watching the blood slowly drip down, a fat golden rat rolled over, its eyes filled with vigilance as it looked at the dripping blood.

She hid herself so well, yet people still came knocking on her door.

Hearing the thunderous roar of the tiger and leopard above, the Rat King knew that this person was exceptionally powerful, and that he might not be a match for him now.

"Damn it, it's only three years left!"

The Rat Queen was furious; she had been cultivating this land for a hundred years.

At first, she just kept giving birth and digging holes.

Sons have sons, sons have grandsons, and so on, generation after generation, without end.

With so many rats, she was able to dig a bottomless pit here, thanks to the sheer number of her offspring.

It can both defend against enemies and provide cover.

The countless rats also possess a combined attack technique: a thousand rats tearing and biting, shrieking, all of which can unleash extremely strong combat power.

In the bottomless pit, even a first-rank expert is no match for tens of thousands of low-level rat demons.

Because her descendants can eat anything, including spiritual energy and sword energy.

The Bottomless Pit cannot fly, and even a first-rank expert is no exception. In the tidal wave of rats, even the strongest expert will be devoured.

This place has been discovered before, but those who came in before all turned to dust, leaving nothing behind.

But this time it was clearly different.

The Rat Queen knew that this blood came from her descendants. Although the offspring she had painstakingly nurtured had not cultivated properly, they all grew by feeding on spiritual veins, and naturally they had cultivation.

Despite the terrifying number of rat demons, they still hadn't managed to defeat their opponent. The golden-haired rat king was filled with hatred as he watched the blood droplets turn into a thin stream.

She climbed to the bottom of the cave, opened her mouth and exhaled a yellow wind. The yellow wind surged upwards, and its power increased with each rise.

Lin Yi was engrossed in the battle when he suddenly saw billowing yellow sand surging from below. He quickly picked up the Ruyi Pearl, enlarged it, and used it to block the sand.

But soon, he was like a cannonball, pushed upwards by the yellow sand, and finally flew out of the ground.

After the rolling yellow sand settled, Lin Yi looked down at the ground and saw that there was no longer any black hole; the grass all around was intact.

Clearly, the other party had realized his power and dared not confront him directly. After driving him away, they hid the bottomless pit.

It seems there's something underneath that's good at controlling the soil.

Lin Yi had no intention of letting go of such a precious place. With such a huge number of monsters gathered together, wasn't this just a place for him to kill?

So Lin Yi resorted to his old trick again, continuing to burrow underground and searching for a bottomless pit.

The previous fall was accidental, but this time it was a deliberate search.

Anyway, if the other party wants to change their location, they can't move the hole too far.

Before long, Lin Yi found the bottomless pit again.

The Golden-haired Rat King had just driven Lin Yi away and used his mountain-moving magic, so he was exhausted and fell asleep as soon as he lay down.

But in a daze, she heard that thunderous roar again.

The blood started dripping again.

"Your Majesty, that pale-faced, loud-mouthed guy with the ball is coming to our door again!"

There were also some highly skilled rat demons in the Rat King's cave. They discovered the situation in the Bottomless Cave and hurriedly came to inform the Rat King.

Upon hearing this, the Rat King became furious.

"How dare you bully me like this? Guards, bring me my treasure!"

At the Rat King's command, all the rats present were invigorated.

In their eyes, the king is invincible, and with the king around, the bandits will surely be utterly defeated.

Immediately, some rats obeyed and went to move the things. Before long, a rat demon with shifty eyes came over looking like a human with a brocade box.

The Rat King opened the brocade box and saw a small black mouse inside, which did not look like a living creature.

"Immortal, save me!"

After saying that, she put the mouse on the ground, and the little mouse burrowed into the ground and disappeared instantly.

The mice remained silent.

The king's roar was so passionate; it turns out he wanted to call for reinforcements...

Chapter 441 A Celestial Being Descends to My Side

The treasure that the Golden Rat King took out was called the Ground Drill Rat. It could burrow into the ground unnoticed and move extremely fast, covering thousands of miles in an instant.

The Rat Queen knew that this person was probably going to be her enemy today. If she didn't get rid of this enemy, her descendants would suffer heavy losses, and she would be unable to carry out her mission.

She had to hold on until reinforcements arrived.

So she used the same trick again, spitting out another mouthful of yellow sand. But after exhaling this breath, she was clearly much more tired, and her originally plump body seemed to have lost some weight.

Just as Lin Yi was enjoying the killing, he saw a cloud of yellow sand rolling in.

This thing is quite annoying, but it's very powerful. Lin Yi doesn't plan to fight it head-on, and he'll use the same old trick again.

The wish-fulfilling pearl blocked the attack, and the cave was once again sent flying. After the yellow sand dissipated, the cave indeed disappeared again.

But so what?

It's just him using the earth-遁术 (earth-遁术 is a technique that allows one to escape underground) again. Once he's underground, he can find the bottomless pit again with a little effort.

Although the cave can change location, it cannot stray too far from the area, so it can probably only be used within the Hengshan region.

Lin Yi made a slight adjustment and then used another underground escape technique.

The poor Golden Rat King had barely lain down when his subordinates came to report again.

"Your Majesty, that man is here again!"

Golden Rat King: "..."

That happened three times in one go, who can withstand that?

I just hope the mole comes back soon.

Longhu Mountain, Tianshi Hall.

Zi Daoren disguised himself as Zhang Chengye and sat upright under the statue of the ancestral master.

Suddenly, there was an unusual ripple underground, and a black rat emerged shortly afterward.

Zi Daoren stretched out his hand, letting the little mouse crawl onto his injured body. As soon as he touched it, he heard the Golden-haired Rat King's cry for help.

The burrowing mouse is very fast, but it can only transmit limited information. Unless it is in an extremely urgent situation, the golden-haired mouse will not use this treasure to call for help.

It seems something has happened over there.

Zi Daoren quickly got up, took out a yellow talisman, sprinkled it on the ground, and another Zhang Chengye with an air of otherworldly elegance appeared.

Zi Daoren arranged for a dummy to sit on a futon, and then gave an order to the outside world: "I need to rest for a while. No one is allowed to enter the Celestial Master Hall without my summons."

"Follow the law!"

Hearing a response from outside, Zi Daoren left with peace of mind.

Recently, there have been more and more Taoist priests on Longhu Mountain. This is because Zhang Chengye's last decision before his death was to hold the Zhou Tian Grand Ritual, and he gave very little time for it.

Many people didn't know what had happened, but out of a desire to protect their sect, they returned as quickly as possible.

As a result, Longhu Mountain became too crowded.

Zi Daoren did not want his identity to be exposed, so he had to use his identity as the patriarch to avoid meeting guests as much as possible in order to avoid revealing any flaws.

However, Zi Daoren was no ordinary person after all. He slipped away from Longhu Mountain quietly, and no one could detect his movements.

After leaving Longhu Mountain, Master Zi headed south, still pondering who could have forced the Golden-haired Rat King to beg for help.

The Golden-haired Rat King has been in the human world for quite some time now, which is also a secret plan of the Purple Daoist.

Mount Heng is one of the Five Sacred Mountains and is an important node where human fortune converges.

Human fortune will eventually converge at Mount Tai, while the other mountains serve as points of exchange.

Zi Daoren's plan was to steal Hengshan Mountain and thus steal its fortune without anyone knowing.

He doesn't eat it all; he only consumes about 30% of the luck passing through the area, which is enough to fill him up.

To this end, he dispatched his most trusted subordinates and provided them with the strongest possible support.

What he wanted to do was unknown even to those in the upper realms.

Now that the Golden Rat King is in trouble, won't that affect his grand plan?

This is why Zi Daoren set off so quickly after receiving only a brief distress signal.

The Golden Rat King must not be lost.

On his way, Zi Daoren witnessed the Golden-haired Rat King nearly going mad.
