Infiltrating the righteous path? Just another place to be a sycophant.

"Is this the energy emanating from the treasure? It's incredibly concentrated."

Li Podao stopped arguing with Lu An and turned to look at the pillar of light shooting into the sky, exclaiming in amazement.

"I have a feeling that once I get in, I will definitely be able to leap to the next level!"

Li Podao patted Lu An on the shoulder and said confidently.

No, it's clearly you who needs to improve your strength, so why does it seem like I'm the one who needs to improve?

"Then may Master's martial arts prowess flourish?"

So Li Hado walked up to the pillar of light, but swallowed hard.

I'm a little hesitant to go in.

"Disciple, why don't you go in and give it a try?"

"No, I'm at the Golden Core stage. If I go in, I'll just be gone." Lu An shook his head and said, "This opportunity is not one I can afford to enjoy."

"My disciple, you must believe in yourself. In truth, your master knows that you possess a mysterious innate sacred body, and this is your opportunity!"

"Master, are you trying to fool a three-year-old?"

"My disciple, you don't understand the importance of opportunity!"

Seeing that he couldn't fool Lu An, Li Podao stood in front of the pillar of light, his face full of hesitation and thought.

Then she felt a push from behind, and her whole body leaned forward, plunging headfirst into the pillar of light.

"You wicked disciple! What are you doing?!"

"Master, the opportunity to become an immortal is right before your eyes. Do not hesitate, for hesitation... will lead to defeat!"

Lu An patiently pushed Li Podao into the pillar of light, a wicked smile on his face.

It's finally my turn to trick my master.

Besides, as a cultivator in the Tribulation Transcending stage, one should naturally take the lead, set an example, and become a role model for us Golden Core cultivators!

As Li Podao entered the pillar of light, a surge of energy also entered his body.

Li Podao could feel that his cultivation level was increasing rapidly. The invisible shackles that had bound him to reach the seventh level of the Tribulation Transcending Realm for so long were actually starting to loosen.

This is the second time it has loosened up. The last time it loosened up was after I accidentally engaged in dual cultivation with this brat.

This renewed easing of restrictions, while somewhat expected, still surprised her.

Because the body's eight extraordinary meridians had not been stimulated by enough spiritual energy for a long time, they were gradually awakening at this moment.

And that level of understanding gradually became clearer in her mind.

Enter the Dao with your body, and the Dao will be revealed.

"I'm about to break through! I'm about to break through!"

She was incredibly excited about breaking through to the Dao; she hadn't felt this way in a long time.

As she broke through to the Dao, she felt the shackles that had bound her for thousands of years loosening, and a long-lost sense of fullness gradually filled her body.

I haven't felt that way in so many years.

It felt like I was back in those days of constantly seeking breakthroughs.

"Is this the place? The human race's secret treasure is right here?"

A slightly childish voice came from behind him. Lu An turned around and found that the little girl who had been his big eater had somehow appeared there.

"This is it, Your Majesty!"

"I told you to call me Queen!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

"Never mind, is the human race's secret treasure located beneath this pillar of light?"

The little girl and the middle-aged man who looked like a pimp walked in, seemingly oblivious to his presence, looking around and talking to themselves.

"How could so many people have died? Was it all killed by that demon?"

"They don't have any demonic energy on them, so maybe they're killing each other?"

"You old tortoise, looking at them like this, how could they possibly be killing each other? I think it was that Yinshan Old Demon who killed them!"

"Look at this room full of blood and flesh! It must have been the work of that demon!"

The little girl said firmly, and the old servant remained silent.

Whatever the leader says goes.

"Oh, aren't you the guy who makes the kebabs? What are you doing here?"

"I've been here the whole time, didn't you see me?"

Lu An was speechless. He thought to himself, "Why don't you look at this living person? Why do you look at the dead person on the ground first, and then come to ask me?"

It's outrageous!

"You're here? You defeated that demon?"

"..."

Lu An didn't answer, he just rolled his eyes.

"Why aren't you saying anything? Fine, this treasure is mine now!"

"You're quite capable. Why don't you become my personal bodyguard?"

"Your Majesty, this is a human! No matter how strong they are, they are still different from demons!"

"I have a dream: for humans and demons to prosper together! Therefore, as long as humans are loyal, they too can ascend the Great Dao with me!"

"Your Majesty, you mustn't! Humans are cunning and might turn against us! They are not good partners!"

The two of them started chatting away on their own again, but Lu An, who was standing to the side, was completely confused.

What's going on? Are these two monsters?

Could it be that the one next to me is actually a turtle?

"Human, I'll give you a chance to consider! Don't say I'm not treating you well. I'll go and experience the power of the secret treasure first. Once you've made up your mind, then tell me what you think!"

The little girl, like a queen, was about to walk towards the pillar of light with an aura of dominance, but Lu An suddenly stood in front of them, his hand on the hilt of his sword.

"Sorry, this road is blocked." Lu An blocked Ao Lei's way.

"Human, what do you mean? I admit you have some skill, but don't be arrogant!"

"Don't think that just because you can stop that Yinshan Old Demon, you can be my match!"

"That Yinshan Old Demon, if I were to take action, it would be very easy to kill him, but I simply do not wish to!"

Ao Lei said angrily, clearly dissatisfied that Lu An had blocked her way.

Anxious.

"I'm sorry, someone is undergoing tribulation here, and I cannot allow you to disturb them."

"Want to fight?"

"I don't want to, but you can certainly give it a try."

Lu An immediately assumed a stance, and the Supreme Yuan Gong was activated. Combined with the Azure Orchid Sword Technique, a fierce and sharp sword intent swept towards Ao Lei like a tidal wave.

"Why does this sword intent feel so familiar?"

Ao Lei originally wanted to make a move and send the person in front of him flying, but after sensing the sword intent, he actually stopped.

"Your Majesty, let's go! This is not someone to be trifled with!"

The turtle butler pleaded earnestly from the side.

Ignoring the turtle steward beside him, Ao Lei was quickly overwhelmed by a flood of past memories, which made him instantly realize the truth.

"It's you! It's you!"

"What? It's me? What are you talking about?"

Chapter 163 I Just Won't Let It Go

Ao Lei is starting to panic, and the panic is getting worse.

Why is this guy here?

As his memories resurfaced, Ao Lei felt as if he had returned to that night.

High above, she was absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth when she was suddenly summoned to Peace City by a nine-tailed fox demon at the fifth level of the Tribulation Transcending Realm using its primordial demonic power.

Then, entrusted by the fox, he was to kill a woman who had reached the first or second level of the Tribulation Transcending Realm, but he was stopped by someone who was a sword cultivator who could exude the sword intent of eternity!

After a moment's thought, one might assume that the person who can unleash the Eternal Sword Intent has a very profound background.

It's not that I'm afraid of their earthly background, but rather their heavenly background.

If he really is the reincarnation of some powerful sword cultivator, and you anger him, will you still have a good life after your ascension?

This is why, no matter what, Ao Lei insisted on breaking his promise and not fighting with him.

But little did I expect that I could run away from the first day of the month, but not the fifteenth!

In the end, he still met his match.

We must be careful and avoid conflict with them.

"Do you still remember me?" Ao Lei asked tentatively.

"The scent is somewhat familiar, but I can't remember it," Lu An said sincerely.

I don't remember, great, I can fool them!

"Brother, dear brother, please let me through! I want to undergo tribulation too!"

The next moment, Ao Lei instantly transformed into a pitiful little girl, rubbing against Lu An.

"Sorry, no, someone is already inside."

"Is someone inside? Who is it?"

Ao Lei was stunned; he hadn't expected someone to beat him to it.

No wonder this kid didn't go in himself, but instead worked as a security guard outside.

"My master," Lu An said sincerely.

"Your master?" Ao Lei asked with some suspicion.

“That’s right, my master.” Lu An nodded.

Ao Lei hesitated again.

How strong must a master be to be able to teach such a powerful person?

If this person is truly some kind of celestial sword immortal, or the reincarnation of an ancient great being, then he must possess great fortune.

To be able to teach a powerful individual with immense fortune must mean one possesses even greater fortune! This person is definitely not an ordinary Tribulation Transcending cultivator!

She already dared not offend the person in front of her. If she offended her master as well, would she still be able to live in the future?

I really didn't expect that this person would have a powerful backer!

So Ao Lei looked up into the pillar of light.

The beam of light is getting weaker and weaker, and the brightness is also decreasing.

However, it is clear from inside that there is indeed a figure inside.

It seems this person was telling the truth; there are indeed people inside, perhaps even his master.

It seems she absorbed a considerable amount of power.

It can be sensed that this person is about to undergo a tribulation.

As for his approximate cultivation level, it is estimated to be around the sixth or seventh level of the Tribulation Transcending Realm.

"Were all the people here killed by your master?"

"No, it was the Yinshan Old Demon who killed him."
