I Possess a Scroll of Demon-Subduing Records

Retribution could come at any time, and I can't wait.

Lin Yi guessed that Zi Daoren was trying to mess with his mentality, deliberately deceiving him that he had only killed a clone and that his main body could still move at any time.

There's definitely some truth in that statement, but it's not entirely true either.

Lin Yi pondered for a moment and felt that, given Zi Daoren's prudence, he was most likely to have a clone operating outside while keeping a backup plan in a nearly enclosed place.

Therefore, now that the external entity is dead, it's time to activate the next move.

But since it is a secluded place isolated from the world, it is certainly not easy to escape from it.

Lin Yi didn't need to be too anxious, but he couldn't let his guard down either.

Waiting for Qu Jing to come to the rescue is uncertain, and leaving Qu Jing to wait idly could easily invite Zi Daoren's revenge.

Lin Yi was also worried that he had attracted a calamity, and that Qu Jing, being so close, would also be affected.

It would be best if they were tricked into giving it away.

Knowing Lin Yi's concerns, Su Xian'er countered, "Then why don't you let Qu Jing jump down too? This is the safest place."

Since Zi Daoren doesn't dare to fight Lin Yi head-on, it means that his strength is still insufficient. Although he will be trapped by Lin Yi's side, he doesn't need to worry about being controlled by Zi Daoren.

Lin Yi chuckled, looked up at the sky, and said, "If a mere Daoist Zi could make me retreat and hide, then I would have wasted all my cultivation."

You better hide well, and watch how I give him a big surprise!

Time was of the essence, so Lin Yi didn't waste any more words.

Add points to the Demon-Slaying Manual!

This time, the power of the Dao was too great. Lin Yi seemed to see something deep within his spiritual platform, within the Demon-Slaying Manual, cascading down like a waterfall and merging into Lin Yi's body.

Lin Yi's body began to heat up, and a vibrant aura emanated from him. Su Xian'er, being closest to Lin Yi, inhaled the most of this aura.

As a result, her mind gradually became hazy, and she instinctively clung to Lin Yi, frantically inhaling his scent through her nose.

If you get really hungry from sucking on it, you might even lick it a few times.

Her IQ dropped again, and only one thought remained in her mind.

Lick, lick, lick; suck, suck, suck.

After using it a lot, she suddenly wanted to have a child.

Lin Yi was completely unaware of this.

He was holding Su Xian'er because she was powerless to fight against the Five Mountains Suppressing Prison and needed his help. He was also not afraid of being disturbed while improving his cultivation.

He figured that holding him wouldn't be a big problem.

But that was in the past.

This time, with over four million years of cultivation poured into his body in one go, Lin Yi's physical changes were too obvious.

His vital energy was like a furnace, burning fiercely. Su Xian'er, in his arms, naturally could not escape the fate of being burned.

But this kind of burning is not the same as that kind of burning.

Lin Yi's absorption of cultivation this time was completely different from before.

Previously, it took hundreds or thousands of years to absorb the nutrients, and the body underwent a gradual transformation.

Even after absorbing the Dragon Wolf King and Gou Quan, he already had a foundation of nine thousand years of cultivation, so absorbing eight or nine thousand years of cultivation wouldn't be a big problem.

But now, he only has 26,000 years of cultivation, but he wants to absorb 70,000 to 80,000 years of cultivation in one go, which is not easy for him to bear.

The Demon-Slaying Manual, however, didn't care about all that. It wasn't a water tap that could be turned on and off at any time.

This giving meant that everything was given away.

Lin Yi never expected that using cheat codes would be so dangerous. Feeling his body rapidly expanding, he could only guard his mind and silently endure it.

Allowing the body's meridians to break during the erosion process, and then rapidly repairing themselves after the breakage.

The muscles, bones, and skin of the whole body are all like this, constantly undergoing a process of destruction and repair, and after each repair, they are stronger than before.

Lin Yi focused his mind and looked inward, realizing that the situation was extremely dangerous. His body was on the verge of collapse at any moment, and he might explode and die at any moment because he could not withstand such a large increase in his cultivation.

However, he persevered to the very limit each time.

But at this moment, Su Xian'er was completely lost in the aura released by Lin Yi.

This is the most primal temptation of life.

Su Xian'er was very hot, and she acted on instinct, rubbing against Lin Yi's body while licking his neck.

Meanwhile, Qu Jing went to find ropes on her own. When she arrived in town, she bought all the hemp ropes in the town.

This length still seemed insufficient, so she flew on her sword to several nearby counties to collect their hemp ropes.

Lin Yi said it was long enough. Qu Jing didn't know what kind of rope was considered long enough. In any case, they would first collect the hemp ropes from this prefecture. If one prefecture wasn't enough, then they would collect the ropes from the whole prefecture.

In short, she couldn't leave Lin Yi in his predicament.

After a busy afternoon, Qu Jing finally tied the collected hemp ropes together, tied a stone to it, and threw it down. Feeling the weight of the stone, Qu Jing slowly lowered the hemp rope.

Seeing that the rope was halfway down and there was still no sign of it ending, Qu Jing couldn't help but feel anxious.

Suddenly, a tremendous force came from the rope in her hand, almost pulling her down as well.

Qu Jing mistakenly thought that Lin Yi was pulling her, so she naturally pulled hard on the rope and dared not loosen her grip.

After a brief back-and-forth struggle, the rope snapped at the cave entrance, and Qu Jing stumbled back several steps, nearly falling.

"Lin Yi, is that you?"

Qu Jing had a feeling that it wasn't Lin Yi who had broken the rope just now, and after asking him this question for a long time, there was still no response from below.

Qu Jingxin's heart sank. She didn't know how they were doing, but she knew that staying here was no longer useful. She had to think of another way.

The rope might not be long enough, or it might be too fragile; she needed to find something stronger and more durable.

For example, iron chains.

Before leaving, Qu Jing glanced at the sky.

It was pitch black; there were no stars or moon in sight.

A biting wind blew, and for no apparent reason, Qu Jing felt a sense of oppression, as if something was brewing here.

Could it be related to Lin Yi?

Thinking of this, Qu Jing's unease was amplified even more.

"We need to act quickly; this situation is beyond my ability to resolve alone."

The situation was much more serious than she had imagined; it was no longer as simple as Lin Yi falling into a pit and needing her to pull him out.

It's time to seek help.

Thinking of this, Qu Jing immediately took off on her sword and flew towards the valley where Bai Lianxian was.

Not long after Qu Jing left, the wind gradually picked up.

A thunderclap boomed, but no lightning flashed; the thunder reverberated in the hearts of the residents at the foot of Mount Heng.

Thunder rumbled but no rain fell; only howling winds blew—clearly an ominous sign.

Under the thunder, all the beasts, including the demons and monsters who had already attained enlightenment, sensed the danger, as if the sky were about to collapse. They all began to follow their instinctive warnings and fled towards the outside of the mountain.

The thunder and wind drowned out the sounds of wild beasts fleeing, and after another clap of thunder, the rain finally began to fall.

It drizzled all night long.

The next morning, the dark clouds that blotted out the sun were still there, and what was even more frightening was the footprints all over the ground, clearly belonging to various wild animals.

I happened to see a few lone wolves, but they didn't seem to be attacking me. I took a road in the village and ran away.

Upon seeing this scene, the village elders unanimously believed that disaster was imminent, and no one dared to linger in the village. Those who were able to leave with their valuables.

As for the elderly, the weak, the sick, and the disabled, who are truly unable to leave their homes, they can only wait at home.

Holding onto a sliver of hope, expecting that perhaps disaster will not strike.

In this chilly spring, even a rainstorm could be fatal for ordinary people, and escaping doesn't guarantee survival.

The world is tough, and no path may be a way to survive.

Lin Yi was unaware of the commotion outside. In the pitch-black cave, he also lost track of how much time had passed, and could only watch helplessly as seemingly endless cultivation power continuously flowed into his body.

At the same time, he watched as a portion of pure blood and qi was injected into Su Xian'er's body.

But sensing that Lin Yi's body was still burning hot, despair filled her eyes...

Help, I really can't hold on any longer...

Chapter 446 Should we just vote?

Su Xian'er was experiencing both pain and pleasure; she felt herself gradually losing control.

Exhausted, she found herself unable to maintain her human form. Before she knew it, two fox ears had appeared, and behind her, a fox tail was swaying back and forth.

Her tail was very disobedient, wagging every now and then and brushing against Lin Yi's leg, which actually made her shudder.

Su Xian'er couldn't help but reach out and grab her tail to stop herself from moving. As soon as she grabbed it, she realized something was wrong.

"One, two, three... six, seven, eight..."

Su Xian'er was completely stunned.

Eight tails?

When did this tail appear?

Now that it has an extra tail, does that mean a heavenly tribulation is about to arrive?

Oh no, something bad is going to happen.

In her current state, she can't even stand up, so how can she talk about transcending tribulation?

What terrified Su Xian'er even more was that her body was starting to feel thirsty again.

"Please, don't move."

Su Xian'er was filled with terror. She could feel her doom approaching, but she was still sitting on Lin Yi's lap. Wasn't that just waiting to die?
