Chapter 265 The End
After handing Yunfei several talismans to protect her, Lin Zhao gripped his sword and looked at the demonized cultivators.

"Master, is there any way to prevent cultivators from being transformed into demons?"

"In theory, every cultivator has narrow-mindedness in their heart before they truly attain enlightenment. Once demonic energy finds a gap and completely erodes them, they will become demons. The deeper the obsession, the faster they will fall into demonic ways. If they don't want to become demons, without the blessing of some rare and precious materials, then it all depends on the cultivator's Dao heart."

Upon hearing this, Lin Zhao understood that for most cultivators corrupted by demonic energy, killing them was the most effective and cheapest way to deal with them.

The Dao heart is without any deficiency. Even a true immortal would probably not dare to say such a thing, otherwise how could there be fallen immortals?

With the Heavenly Phoenix Bone Sword drawn, Lin Zhao pierced through the demon that was trying to ambush Song Tingning.

Song Tingning noticed the demon, turned her head and gave Lin Zhao a grateful look, before throwing herself back into the battle.
Lin Zhao noticed that his aura was fluctuating, but it was not because he had been corrupted by the demons again, but rather because he seemed to be about to break through.

Song Tingning is already at the peak of the Heartbeat Stage. If she breaks through again, wouldn't she become a Nascent Soul cultivator?

"That's wonderful," Lin Zhao exclaimed.

Grandma Honghu said, "He should thank you for his breakthrough."

Lin Zhao exclaimed, wondering why Song Tingning's breakthrough was related to her, but she quickly realized: "That Sima Ling also took a portion of his talent?"

"What do you think? It's just that this kid has a special identity, so Sima Ling and the evil thoughts from another world don't dare to go too far."

Lin Zhao clicked his tongue, indicating that he wasn't very interested in this kind of credit.

She turned and approached the demon who was at the late stage of the Heartbeat Realm.

With her current spiritual foundation, ordinary late-stage Heartbeat Realm cultivators can no longer do anything to her. If Lin Zhao weren't unsure about Song Tingning's talent and foundation, he estimated that as long as she hadn't advanced to the Nascent Soul Realm, he might have tried to fight her.

Of course, if others knew about the idea of ​​a battle between a player in the early stages of a relationship and one who has reached the peak of a relationship, they would probably laugh their heads off.

But in the early stages of a normal romantic relationship, who can reach the foundation of ten thousand spiritual streams?
After Lin Zhao's battle attracted the attention of those around her, not only the demons but even the disciples of the Phoenix Medicine Sect were shocked by her formidable fighting power.

After sensing Lin Zhao's somewhat terrifying spiritual power, the elders who came to provide support looked at each other in bewilderment.

Ten thousand streams of spiritual energy are nothing to cultivators of their level, but they have never seen anyone in the early stages of the Heartbeat Realm possess such a foundation of spiritual energy!
Even Sima Ling, in the early stages of the Heartbeat Realm, only had a foundation of three thousand Dao Spirit Streams, while Lin Zhao had more than three times that amount!

What terrifying talent that must be!
"Is this what a true prodigy is like?"

One of the disciples couldn't help but start muttering to himself.

One of Song Tingning's disciples gave a bitter smile: "The elders used to say we were frogs in a well, unaware of the vast gap between true geniuses and us, and I didn't believe it then, but now I do." Although the Phoenix Medicine Sect has fallen on hard times, it is still a dominant sect in the Northwest Continent. The cultivators who can enter the Phoenix Medicine Sect are all prominent figures. In their respective hometowns, they are all highly sought-after geniuses. But now, their supposedly impressive talents are utterly insignificant compared to the girl in front of them.

However, their frustration did not last long. After all, didn't they see that the elders looked at the female disciple with an air of utter ignorance?
The disciples composed themselves and resumed their fierce battle.

Fortunately, since the Seventh Elder came out, no more monsters have emerged from that deep cave, which shows that the Seventh Elder was the strongest among these monsters.

Of course, the number of disciples who went on missions and the number of criminals imprisoned by the Second Elder over the years is far more than this, but they all understand that many demons were not kept in their territory, but were thrown into this bottomless lava blood pool, becoming nourishment for the Second Elder and Sima Ling to improve their cultivation.

The battle ended with the arrival of the sect leader. He simply pressed his hand, and the monsters in the cave exploded, leaving only the Seventh Elder, who was going berserk.

After observing the Seventh Elder for a while, the sect leader said to the First Elder behind him, "I trouble you, Senior Brother, to capture the Seventh Elder and see if there is any way to save him."

Before being tricked by the Second Elder, the Seventh Elder was a powerful figure in the early stage of the Integration Realm. For the Phoenix Medicine Sect, which has suffered heavy losses, losing even one of such a master would diminish the sect's foundation.

Looking at the chaotic corpses scattered everywhere, the other disciples didn't know whether to be overjoyed to see their sect leader again or saddened by the loss of their former comrades.

The First Elder nodded, then cast a formation to trap the Seventh Elder before asking, "Sect Leader, I wonder about Minglan and the Second Elder..."

The sect leader of the Phoenix Medicine Sect remained silent for a moment, then waved his hand: "I have already suppressed the second brother and am awaiting the judgment of the Ancestral Phoenix Empire. As for Minglan, the empire will take her away, and she will probably be sent to the border to guard the mortal realm."

Guarding the mortal realm means that she can no longer become an immortal, which is tantamount to cutting off her path to the half-step tribulation. This punishment is extremely harsh for a cultivator with good talent.

But the First Elder didn't know how to explain what had happened over the years. In fact, if Minglan hadn't discovered the clues, they would never have imagined that the Sect Leader wasn't in seclusion at all, but had been tricked by the Second Elder. If Minglan hadn't intervened in advance to destroy the Second Elder's formation, perhaps none of them would be alive today.

However, over the years, she has also been protecting the Second Elder, and the deaths of so many Phoenix Medicine Sect disciples because of her cannot be ignored.

He sighed with a headache, lamenting that he was indeed not cut out for power. After a long pause, he finally managed to utter, "The sect leader can make the decision."

After arranging these important matters, the sect leader looked at Lin Zhao and said, "If it weren't for this little guy, I might have been completely worn down by that bastard, the second brother, during this great calamity."

Upon hearing this, the Grand Elder's gaze fell upon Lin Zhao, and his pupils contracted slightly: "This girl..."

"You sensed it too? That kid Cheng Hai passed on his cultivation technique to her."

The Grand Elder looked at Lin Zhao for a while and knew that the technique had been learned by Lin Zhao and could not be retrieved. He said, "I do not deny her contributions in this matter. So let's take this technique as a reward for this girl. After all, this technique is the foundation of our sect. This reward is not unfair to her. As for the successor, it is a bit too early for her to decide now."

Even Sima Ling, who led the younger generation of the Phoenix Medicine Sect for so many years, never obtained that cultivation technique, let alone the title of heir to the Phoenix Medicine Sect.

This unremarkable girl was only in the early stages of developing feelings for someone, and had only been in the sect for a short time. It was rather hasty to appoint her as the successor simply because Cheng Hai favored her and taught her cultivation techniques.
