Under One Person, your rebellious life has reached the heavens?

"Oh? Mr. Yu, what do you mean?"

Gu Qi'an lay low for nearly two years, secretly developing the Quanxing sect. His control over the sect was even stronger than that of the two previous acting sect leaders.

Nowadays, most of the Quanxing members are former scraps and lackeys; the remaining elites are drawn by the new sect leader's strength, who was a freak whose strength was comparable to his master's several years ago.

The experts who joined Quanxing one after another were arrogant and proud. Some wanted to challenge him and take his place, but none of them could last three rounds.

Gu Qi'an's achievements in martial arts are already comparable to those of his master, Gu Hengyi, the strongest elder of the Quanxing sect, the "Red Warrior." Moreover, he is in his prime, and his strength is only stronger.

The ragged old man he spoke with was also a Grandmaster who had failed in his challenge. Faced with the sect leader's questioning, he lowered his head and suggested:

"These eight extraordinary skills... why don't we seize them and give them to our disciples to cultivate? Once their strength has significantly improved, the sect's damaged vitality will also recover in a short time."

"Besides, as long as you personally take to the field, apart from that person from the Sanyi Sect appearing in the martial world, how could the other prestigious sects be your match?"

"Furthermore, this news will spread sooner or later. I think we should let the Japanese devils and some filthy bastards get involved, use them as pawns to weaken the power of each faction. Once all eight are dead, the extraordinary skills will fall into our hands, and the Quanxing Sect will emerge out of nowhere and firmly sit on the position of the hegemon of the martial arts world. There will be no problem at all."

Old Yu, with his sharp eyes and rich experience, easily charted the fastest and most profitable path for Gu Qiqi.

"Hmm...that makes sense."

"It's no fun staying in this smoky, dark place all day long."

Gu Qi'an's frivolous and arrogant expression suddenly vanished, replaced by indifference. He stood up and strode forward, his cold voice instantly echoing throughout the room.

"Send the order!"

"Even if I have to dig three feet into the ground, I will find the whereabouts of these eight people by employing their followers and informants in every province."

"clear."

The demons present responded in unison.

........

Thousands of miles away at Sanyi Gate, torrential rain poured down, accompanied by lightning and thunder.

The fourth floor of the Sutra Repository was brightly lit with candles. Zhuge Yu and Lu Jin sat on the floor, with an hourglass on the tea table. There was still a moment before midnight.

As Jiang Mo sipped his tea, he waited patiently. Once the time was up, Cheng Zhen would open the letter left behind by the Master of Wanxiang Hall, obtain the demon's whereabouts, and go to eliminate him.

"Uncle-Master, the Wang family has caught the sworn brother thief, Feng Tianyang."

Lu Jin relayed the news she had received that day to the others:

"The interrogation conference is in the next couple of days. Many sects will be attending, and our sect has also received an invitation. Do you think we should trouble a few of our senior brothers and uncles to go?"

"Wang family?"

Jiang Mo replied without hesitation, "This is not a suitable time to go."

"No need to pay attention to it. After I kill the demon, I will have plenty of time to deal with the remaining villains."

"good....."

Lu Jin put the matter out of his mind. His clear eyes were fixed on the hourglass on the table. Strands of fine sand fell through the narrow passage. It was getting closer and closer to midnight.

Not only him, but Zhuge Yu was also a little agitated. He was determined to kill the demon himself this time.

instantly.

The shifting sands have almost disappeared.

Midnight has arrived, a new day begins, the sixteenth day of the seventh lunar month!

Without further ado, Chengzhen tore open the envelope with her slender fingers, took out a page of letter paper, and calmly glanced over all the contents. Meeting the gazes of her two junior brothers and senior uncle, she spoke word by word:

"The demon has appeared."

"The Southern Frontier, the ancestral home of Luo Wuyuan, possesses eight extraordinary skills and should not be underestimated; we must deal with them with caution."

"Divine Craftsmanship, Heavenly Record, Dual-Hand Techniques, Six Treasuries of Immortal Thieves, Feng Hou Qi Men, Qi Body Source Flow, Spirit Binding and General Command, Great Luo Cave Observation."

The letter was densely packed with words, written in clear and neat handwriting. It was written by Ji Yuqian in his final moments of lucidity. It not only explained the general functions of the Eight Extraordinary Skills, but also their origins and the jade disc left behind in Tongtian Valley by the Ziyang Mountain Man.

"Techniques themselves are not sinful; it is people's hearts that cause chaos. The emergence of the Eight Extraordinary Techniques will set off a new wave of chaos in the martial arts world."

"Uncle-Master, Master Ji's advice to you is... follow your heart. You can interfere or not interfere as you please."

After reading it, Chengzhen put the letter down and handed it to his uncle, awaiting instructions.

"Eight Wonderful Skills..."

"The Thirty-Six Brotherhoods... These madmen, in the former residence of the Southern Sect's founder, managed to obtain such a secret. I roughly know the demon's intentions."

Jiang Mo's thoughts gradually became clear. Based on the information provided by Hall Master Ji and his personal experience of the great battle, a girl's face suddenly appeared in his mind. She looked six or seven parts similar to Wu Gensheng, and was clearly the vessel that Luo Wuyuan's ancestor had possessed.

"Uncle-Master, please forgive my ignorance, I have not been able to see the whole picture, please enlighten me."

Zhuge Yu was completely confused and had no idea what was going on. On the other hand, Lu Jin and Cheng Zhen had already figured things out, but were not yet certain.

Seeing his eagerness to ask, Jiang Mo guessed:

"The reason the devil did this is because of his daughter."

“A year ago, your senior brother, Jin’er, and I went to the southern border to hunt down the ancestor of the evil cultivator lineage. He was a monster who had been lingering on for over a thousand years. In order to change his body and achieve immortality, he forcibly possessed the daughter of a demon.”

"The jade disc in the former residence of Ziyang Shanren is indeed a rare treasure. It can materialize people's desires. Those who swore brotherhood with him were just pawns chosen by Wugensheng."

"He wanted to use these thirty-five ambitious people to comprehend the thirty-five unparalleled skills, travel to the clan's site in Luowu Abyss, challenge the ancestors of that lineage, and reclaim his daughter's body."

"However, man proposes, God disposes. The demon's sworn brotherhood was exposed ahead of time, resulting in a sharp reduction in manpower, and only eight extraordinary skills were managed to be gathered. In addition, what he did not know was that the monster that had taken over his daughter's body had already been killed by me."

"This time, the demon is going to the southern border, probably to seek death."

Lu Jin and Cheng Zhen didn't show much surprise, as this was very close to what they had guessed, but Zhuge Yu was dumbfounded.

"This...this demon, going to all this trouble just to challenge that monster?!"

"Uncle-Master, were you also injured by it back then?"

Before Jiang Mo could answer, Cheng Zhen couldn't help but tease him:

“Junior Brother Zhuge, do you really not trust your Uncle? That monster is powerful, but it can't do anything to you. On the contrary, you used its methods to advance further.”

"Uncle-Master...you're amazing..."

Zhuge Yu was filled with boundless admiration. At the same time, he noticed that his martial uncle was exceptionally young, without a trace of age. Could it be that he, too, would live for a thousand years like a monster in the future?!

Just thinking about this made his blood boil. This was no longer just about being remembered for his extraordinary achievements; it was about being a figure who would be remembered for a long time throughout history.

"All right."

"Little Zhuge, Jin'er, go find your senior brothers Shuiyun and Changqing and get ready. I will take you there later."

"Chengzhen, tell Will to wait for me here."

Upon learning of Wugensheng's whereabouts, Jiang Mo refused to give him any chance of survival, even with the Eight Extraordinary Skills bestowed upon him, he was still destined to die.

"Yes, Uncle-Master." The three disciples were shaken to their core; their long-awaited moment of revenge had finally arrived.

Jiang Mo left his instructions, then got up and went to the third floor of the Sutra Repository.

"Buzz!"

As he stepped down, the magical barrier covering the entire attic rippled, and a lukewarm female voice followed.

"Sect Leader?"

"haven't seen you for a long time."

Jiang Mo's gaze swept around and he discovered that the stacked, floating, transparent cubes were everywhere, storing a large amount of experimental materials.

He walked straight over and found You Sha busy in the corner. She was wearing a misty gauze dress, and her slender and perfect body was faintly visible. Her special fragrance permeated every inch of this space.

Several thick, ancient magical books floated above You Sha's left hand as she flipped through them, while her right hand manipulated countless rays of scarlet light, which were poured into a giant metal sphere engraved with magical runes.

"Wait for me a moment?" You Sha seemed extremely busy; this was the first time she had ever made such a request.

"Ah."

Jiang Mo tilted his head slightly, and the alchemical creation that came into view filled him with inexplicable anticipation.

What on earth is this?

Chapter 204 A Journey to Capture the Demon

A crimson light flowed from You Sha's palm, continuously nourishing the giant metal sphere. It took about two hours for the light to be absorbed and for the sphere to return to calm.

"Buzz!"

The next instant, the creation roared and trembled, shrinking wildly and embedding itself in an ancient magical book.

Exhausted and with a sore back, You Sha stretched out her arms and lazily turned around.

"Is there anything you need me to do?"

Her beautiful, deep eyes gazed at the frosty-haired youth standing beside her.

Yu Sha picked up the half-cup of coffee on the table, drank it all in one gulp, regained some energy, and then began to inquire about the purpose of their visit.

"Come with me on a trip to extract someone's memories."

"When?" You Sha did not refuse.

"Now."

Jiang Mo didn't want to wait a moment longer.

"Okay, I'll change my clothes."

You Sha went to a blind spot to change her clothes, and Jiang Mo's voice rang out from outside.

"What was that creation just now?"

"Fate Reversal, a special ancient magic, is still in the experimental stage. I'm not sure if it can be fully reproduced. Throughout the academy, geniuses have made what they thought were better 'modifications' to it, causing the magic to completely lose its original effect two hundred years ago."

As You Sha spoke, she removed her thin clothes.

Jiang Mo waited patiently, and took the opportunity to talk to her: "The effect? ​​Tell me in detail?"

"It can return to a point in your memory in a short time, but it will not change the current world or history. You can understand it as an existence that is infinitely close to a real dream."

"It's a bit complicated to explain it to you like this, Director. Do you know that at this very moment of our conversation, countless possibilities have already emerged, and each of these possibilities, if continued to develop, will form different timelines?"

“Fate rewind cannot change your past, present, or future destiny, but it can take a certain moment in your current worldline as a starting point and throw a grappling hook towards countless moments in any stage of your past life. After a stable bridge is built, you can climb into the past world like a pirate attacking a ship, to observe, and even change everything in that world.”

"Fortunately, I have some understanding of your country's culture. To use a metaphor that you can better understand, it's like 'Zhuangzi dreaming of a butterfly.' That world is a dream that can never become real for you, while you are a real individual that exists intermittently in that world."

"The world line you are currently in has completed the end of the past and is now moving forward with infinite possibilities."

"But the worldline you anchor to exists in the past, and like the worldline you are in, the past ends and the future develops. You can influence its development, but its development will not have any impact on your present."

You Sha was happy to discuss magic with Jiang Mo, which was, of course, the only area she could be proud of.

After changing her clothes, she walked in lightly, smiling as she asked, "Did I... speak too fast, Director?"

"No, I understand what you mean. Your so-called fate reversal reminds me of the sorcerer's inner vision, but your method is more special. It can actually go to an extremely similar world, which I did not expect. It's amazing."

Jiang Mo was generous with his praise. He had traveled all over the country for many years and had seen many strange and unusual methods. He still greatly admired You Sha's knowledge. She had extraordinary talent in both magic and alchemy.

"Inner vision? It is said that it is a unique ability of yours. You can fulfill any desire inside, but it is extremely difficult to get out."

Following Jiang Mo's footsteps, You Sha left the third floor and went up the wooden stairs.

"Yes. According to you, the concept of 'fate reversal' has a time limit, affecting the world between the present and the past."

"When you immerse yourself in the inner realm, it affects an individual's thoughts and consciousness. There is no time limit. It's like falling into a deeper level of a dream. The longer you stay in the inner realm, the slower time passes."

At this point, Jiang Mo was somewhat moved, and a familiar face naturally came to mind.

However, his thoughts were interrupted the next second, because he had reached the fourth floor and all the disciples were waiting for his orders.

Chengzhen, Lu Jin, Zhuge Yu, Changqing, Shuiyun, Weier, and Liqing and Shengsheng, who were summoned to guard the Qi Diagram.

"Boom!!!"

Outside the window, silvery lightning, like wild snakes dancing, tore through the dark sky, and in that instant, the cold expressions and murderous intent of the crowd could be seen.

"Uncle-Master, please lead us down the mountain and slay the demon."

"Ah."

"I won't keep you waiting long."

Jiang Mo extended his right hand, and the Heavenly Kingdom opened. A transparent vortex appeared in an instant, and two guardians and five disciples entered one after another.
