Having been given a second chance at life, I choose to join the Demonic Sect!

Chapter 59 Check-in Successful, Misfortune and Defeat Talisman!
Having made up his mind to spend some money, Cao Meng immediately started upgrading his attributes.

"Ding! Two hundred thousand low-grade spirit stones have been deducted. Your cultivation level has increased by two minor realms, advancing you to the third level of the Golden Core stage!"

"Ding, deducting 10,000 low-grade spirit stones, you have been upgraded to a second-grade weapon refiner (100% success rate for second-tier spirit weapons)."

"Friendly reminder: Upgrading to a Rank 3 Refiner requires one million low-grade spirit stones!"

"Ding! After deducting 100,000 low-grade spirit stones, the Ten-Day Sacred Body has been upgraded to the Second Yang stage!"

"Friendly reminder: Upgrading to the third Chongyang stage in ten days requires ten million low-grade spirit stones!"

As Cao Meng upgraded his Ten-Sun Sacred Body to Double Sun, the solar power stored in the Suqin Peak Gathering Sun Formation was forcibly diverted and gathered in his body, and two great sun phenomena appeared on his left and right sides behind him.

Cao Meng was also in a bind when he learned that it would take ten million low-grade spirit stones to upgrade the Ten-Day Sacred Body to the third level.

He didn't even dare to think about how much spirit stones he would need to advance to the ninth and tenth levels, given how much it cost to reach the third level alone.

Cao Meng's actions led to his bankruptcy; he used 310,000 low-grade spirit stones and was left with only 300-odd low-grade spirit stones.

Although Cao Meng is now bankrupt, he has upgraded his Ten-Day Sacred Body to the second level and his first-grade weapon refiner has also been upgraded to the second grade. At least he can refine second-tier Supreme Yang Pearls in the future.

Cao Meng decided that after killing Tang Shang this time, he would start refining the second-tier Supreme Yang Pearl and make a fortune.

"Friendly reminder: Host, you also have a map for the Hehuan Sect's daily check-in rewards!"

The system gave Cao Meng a reminder, and he promptly logged off.

Cao Meng took out the sign-in reward map and carefully studied the map rules.

There are nine checkpoints on the map. You must check in at each checkpoint in the order shown on the map to receive a mystery reward.

These nine checkpoints are located on the eight main peaks of the Hehuan Sect and in the forbidden area of ​​the Hehuan Sect. In addition, you can only check in once a month.

Once you have checked in at all nine checkpoints on the map, you will receive a super grand prize!
The first checkpoint is located at Suqin Peak.

Without further ado, Cao Meng took the check-in map and headed to the check-in point on Suqin Peak.

As Cao Meng followed the checkpoints marked on the map, he felt increasingly uneasy.

"This photo spot is the bedroom of the female demon master!"

Finally, Cao Meng determined the location of the checkpoint: Consort Duanmu's palace.

Looking at Consort Duanmu's palace, Cao Meng hesitated, wondering whether he should go or not.

If Consort Duanmu were in her palace, I would most likely have my yang energy drained if I went in!

"You traitor, now that you're here, why aren't you coming in!"

Just as Cao Meng hesitated, a delicate shout came from the palace.

Consort Duanmu, who was in the palace, had long noticed Cao Meng. She wanted to see what this traitorous disciple was up to.

It turned out that the rebellious disciple had chickened out, which is why she decided to expose everything.

Now that they've all been discovered, Cao Meng has no choice but to bite the bullet and go in.

"I need to get some fresh air right after I finish checking in!"

He decided to run away as soon as he finished swiping his card, because as long as he ran fast enough, Duanmu Fei wouldn't be able to absorb his yang energy.

When Cao Meng entered the palace, he saw Consort Duanmu lying lazily on the bed, her immense evil nature almost palpable, and he was momentarily stunned.

"Disciple has met Master!"

After regaining his senses, Cao Meng quickly bowed and greeted the emperor, simultaneously summoning the system in his mind and saying:
"System, check in!"

"Ding! The host has successfully checked in at the peak master's palace on Suqin Peak and has obtained the item: Misfortune and Defeat Talisman!"

"The Talisman of Misfortune and Demise: Those who are afflicted by this talisman will inevitably suffer a decline in fortune, leading to misfortune and death. It is the absolute nemesis of those destined for greatness!"

After swiping his card, Cao Meng was about to run away when Consort Duanmu got up from the bed and came to Cao Meng's side.

Consort Duanmu hooked her arm around Cao Meng's neck, thwarting his attempt to escape.
"You rebellious disciple, you've got some nerve! You even dared to spy on your master in his palace!" "You rebellious disciple, speaking of which, your Ten-Day Sacred Body has broken through, and your cultivation has also advanced to the third level of the Golden Core stage. Did you come here specifically to tempt your master?"

Ever since Duanmu Fei absorbed Cao Meng's yang energy, she felt like she was addicted and now she was a little tempted by this traitorous disciple!
She was eager to know if Cao Meng's primordial yang could help her achieve the Refinement of Emptiness.

"Master, stop fooling around, I need to talk to you!"

Cao Meng righteously refused his female demon master's advances, not because he respected his master, but because he was afraid that she would absorb his cultivation.

Consort Duanmu, having failed to seduce her rebellious disciple, frowned, then returned to her bed, lying lazily, and casually asked:
"You unfilial disciple, what do you want with your master?"

"Master, when I became your disciple, you promised to help me wipe out the entire Tang family of the Xuan Yun Dynasty. Now, there is one member of the Tang family who has escaped our net!"

Cao Meng directly revealed Tang Shang's situation, which conveniently allowed this female demon master to help him kill someone!
Upon hearing this, Consort Duanmu raised the corner of her mouth and smiled:

"You unfilial disciple, so you want your master to kill for you?"

"Ok!"

Cao Meng nodded in agreement. He knew that Tang Shang was a chosen one and not so easy to kill, so he thought of bringing his female demon master over as a henchman.

"Take my token and go to the Hunting Hall to mobilize a few half-step Nascent Soul elders!"

Consort Duanmu casually tossed a token to Cao Meng, thinking that mobilizing a few half-step Nascent Soul cultivators would be more than enough for such a trivial matter.

"Forehead!"

Cao Meng was embarrassed and quickly explained:

"Master, although Tang Shang's cultivation level is not high, he has great fortune. I'm afraid even a half-step Nascent Soul cultivator can't kill him!"

Those destined for greatness are not to be killed; even a lion must exert its full strength to hunt a rabbit, and one must never underestimate or be careless in the slightest.

"You unfilial disciple, aren't you close to Junior Sister Xia? Why don't you let her go with you!"

"Forehead!"

Upon hearing this, Cao Meng seemed to sense a sour taste in his mouth!

That female demon master is jealous! She really is just lusting after my body!

"Master, no matter how good my relationship with Martial Aunt Xia is, she is still an outsider. Asking her to help requires giving her benefits!"

Cao Meng and Xia Yulan are currently having some unpleasantness over the profits from bubble tea.

If he seeks Xia Yulan's help now, he will be at a disadvantage.

That demon will definitely take the opportunity to make demands, but he won't let that demon have his way!

"You mean I can get this for free?"

Upon hearing this, Consort Duanmu's gaze sharpened, and she stared coldly at the other party.

I really didn't expect that in this rebellious disciple's heart, he, the master, was just a tool for freeloading!
What a despicable traitor!
"You unfilial disciple, there have been some changes within the sect recently. Your master must remain in the sect to oversee things and cannot leave!"

"I will have my two junior sisters, Jiang Mengzhu and Xu Ru, accompany you on this trip!"

If it weren't for the fact that the eight-foot-tall female giant of Crimson Peak was about to emerge from seclusion, I wouldn't mind accompanying this traitorous disciple on a trip and killing some people along the way!

But that female giant has been cultivating in the forbidden area of ​​the Hehuan Sect for three hundred years, and she is about to emerge from seclusion in the next few days.

During this time, I must keep an eye on that female giant to prevent her from vying for power after she emerges from seclusion.

"Master, these two senior uncles and Senior Uncle Xia joined forces to kill a rabbit, but one of them still managed to escape. Their strength is a bit lacking!"

Although Cao Meng had played cards with Jiang Mengzhu and Xu Ru, the two hall masters, their relationship was alright.

But the hunt for the Flying Mist made him somewhat doubt the abilities of Jiang Mengzhu and Xu Ru!
Jiang Mengzhu and Xu Ru: Cao Meng, what right do you, a Golden Core cultivator, have to question the strength of us two Nascent Soul cultivators!

The gentlemen present all know who the eight-foot-tall female giant was based on, so we won't say!
