After awakening, the female supporting character in the abused novel only wants to ascend to immorta

Chapter 261 The dog jumps over the wall in a hurry

A cool breeze blew past the two of them, and Lin Zhao smelled a very faint scent of blood.

Then, amidst Yunfei's screams, Lin Zhao saw a "headless man" whose half-body was a skeleton and the other half was flesh and blood.

The left half of the person is pleading for help from them, while the right half of the skeleton is holding its own head in its hand.

Yunfei had never seen such a terrifying scene before, and she was about to faint after being shaken for only a few moments.

Lin Zhao helped her up, and with a thought, he sent the girl into the cave behind the secret waterfall. Then, the Heavenly Phoenix Bone Sword was already lying in her hand.

The other person slowly walked towards Lin Zhao, as if seeing a savior, mechanically pointing to his head and repeating the same sentence: "Save me, save me."

However, his demonic energy had seeped into his divine palace and flesh, and in every sense, he was already beyond saving.

Lin Zhao shattered the man to pieces with a single sword strike, then erected a spiritual energy barrier to block the flying flesh and blood that were hurtling towards him. Looking at the old man standing not far away, his gaze slowly darkened.

Are they really not going to wait even a little bit?

The Second Elder's deep purple eyes fell on Lin Zhao, and his voice seemed to come from the ends of the earth: "Little girl, if you hand over your cultivation technique now, I can take you as my personal disciple, and the Phoenix Medicine Sect will be yours in the future."

Lin Zhao recorded this scene in the glass mirror and had Granny Honghu use her Tian Tong account to contact Prince Chi Ling.

Lin Zhao planted the Heavenly Phoenix Bone Sword in the ground and said, "Now that you know my background, why do you think I would agree?"

When Cheng Hai taught you the cultivation technique, did he tell you how I expelled him from the sect back then?

Lin Zhao listened expressionlessly.

"When Cheng Hai and I were young, the Phoenix Medicine Sect was still a transcendent power in the Central Continent. The sect intended to make him its successor. However, who could have known that after he was designated as our generation's sect leader, the sect was suddenly attacked by the demons. The demons appeared from his mountain and slaughtered nearly half of the sect's disciples. Even the elite of the Phoenix Medicine Sect suffered heavy losses, and my master perished in the attack. The Phoenix Medicine Sect lost its original status and never recovered. But the sect had no doubt about his master and even made that old scoundrel the sect leader after the old sect leader was seriously injured and abdicated!"

As the Second Elder spoke, his purple eyes were filled with hatred: "Since the Demon Clan appeared on his disciple's mountain, they have not been strict in disciplining their disciples. How could that old scoundrel become the sect leader! Moreover, despite such a thing happening, that old scoundrel who took the position of sect leader only expelled Cheng Hai from the sect and that was it!"

Lin Zhao listened without saying a word.

Thinking of this, the Second Elder smiled smugly: "That old scoundrel acted recklessly because he was the strongest in the sect back then. This can be considered retribution. It's just a pity that my master suffered a blow and passed away a few years after moving here. As a result, he handed over his position as elder and the power of the Phoenix Medicine Sect to me."

Lin Zhao immediately understood what the Second Elder had done: "Is this the reason why your strength increased so dramatically back then?"

The Second Elder smiled slightly, but did not respond to Lin Zhao's words.

However, both of them understood that it was the Second Elder who colluded with the Demon Clan to frame Cheng Hai, causing the Phoenix Medicine Sect to suffer a great loss of strength.

After the sect leader expelled Cheng Hai and moved the Phoenix Medicine Sect to the Northwest Continent, he schemed against his master and obtained cultivation and a high position.

Of course, Lin Zhao deduced these things from Sima Ling's diary and the Second Elder's reaction. The Second Elder himself could not possibly admit to betraying his master and colluding with the demons.

Seeing that Lin Zhao understood the truth of what happened back then in such a short time, the Second Elder gained a new understanding of Lin Zhao.

Knowing Lin Zhao's current arrogance, he couldn't help but maliciously shatter Lin Zhao's confidence: "If you want to use the Heavenly Mirror on your body to inform your helpers that I have fallen into demonic possession, then forget it. I sealed off this area as soon as you got near Qingyun Peak."

How could he not sense the dangerous aura near the Phoenix Medicine Sect?

Furthermore, the sudden news that Sima Ling was on an external mission made the Second Elder realize that he had underestimated this little girl.

“That old bastard Cheng Hai has indeed found some decent helpers.” The Second Elder said, “Telling you all this is just telling you that you should go now. After you die, I will find out which technique to expel the demonic energy from my body. At that time, I will still be undergoing tribulation on the righteous path, and the Phoenix Medicine Sect can regain its former glory in my hands.” He reached out his hand, but was stopped by the barrier in front of Lin Zhao.

The aura of that barrier sent chills down the Second Elder's spine.

Above the barrier, shimmering light flowed, creating a mirage that was clearly a symbol of spiritual energy taking form during the Tribulation Transcending stage.

He asked in astonishment, "What is this?"

Lin Zhao smiled slightly: "Do you think I'm here to record your demonic possession? I'm only here to find out the truth of what happened back then. As for your affairs, I already had someone record them for me. Thanks to Sima Ling, there are quite a few disciples on Qingyun Peak who have opinions about you."

The second elder felt the aura of the barrier and wanted to run away, but the opponent had already slashed at him with a sword.

Seeing that there was no escaping it, the Second Elder's eyes gleamed red: "You brat, you asked for this!"

After saying that, he no longer concealed his demonic appearance, revealing a pair of purplish-red eyes and a demonized face.

This appearance silenced the Chiling who had come to support them. The other two elders who had come with Chiling looked at the Second Elder with disgust.

"Your Highness, let's finish him off now."

As the leaders of a major righteous sect, their fall into demonic ways is a disgrace to them.

Upon hearing this, the Second Elder laughed heartily: "Do you really think that I, having been in power at the Phoenix Medicine Sect for so many years, have no backup plans?!"

After saying that, he crushed a blood-red talisman in his hand.

"Is it the Demon Soul Array?" Granny Honghu's voice and the old man beside Chiling's voice rang out at the same time.

Lin Zhao's expression turned cold upon hearing the Demon Soul Array. This array was a demonic formation that seized the blood and flesh of cultivators to enhance the array master's cultivation. It was a secret array kept within the Demon Realm.

The second elder, in desperation, abandoned all pretense and openly revealed his long-standing collusion with the demon realm.

Seeing the dramatic change in the expressions of the three people in front of him, the Second Elder laughed heartily, "You guys have good eyesight! You forced me to use the Demon Soul Array, so you deserve to die."

He obtained the Demon Soul Array after making significant contributions to the Demon Clan. After acquiring it, he placed arrays throughout the entire Phoenix Medicine Sect territory, so that if things were ever exposed, he would still have a trump card to turn the tables.

The Second Elder said, "With the entire sect as the sacrifice, let alone undergoing tribulation, I could even enter at the Great Perfection of Tribulation!"

Among Chi Ling and the others, the strongest is Chi Ling, but she is only at the mid-stage of the Tribulation Transcending Realm. At the same cultivation level, the demon race's destructive power far exceeds that of cultivators.

Watching the changing expressions of the three members of the Chiling Sect before him, the Second Elder waited with a smile for screams to erupt from the Phoenix Medicine Sect. He awaited the day when this sect, which had wronged him for so many years, would be plunged into utter ruin under his own scheme.

But he waited for a long time, until the three of them, Chi Ling, looked strange, but the Phoenix Medicine Sect remained completely silent.

Not to mention the sect that the Second Elder mentioned, there wasn't even a bird chirping; it was eerily silent.

For a moment, the Second Elder's expression was extremely interesting.

A slightly melancholic sigh then rang out.

"Junior brother, you still used this formation."
