Chapter 1382 The Immortal of Forgetfulness
Dream Eater Little Feather is having a blast!
Initially, she only used the disciples of Dong Ye of Zhongyuan Immortal Mansion to practice her techniques and familiarize herself with the power of the Dream Erosion Curse.

After all, she had only just cultivated the "Heavenly Demon Body" and didn't have a concrete understanding of the power and effects of the Dream Erosion Curse.

The Dream Erosion Curse is derived from the "Magic Eye Technique," which she knows intimately.

However, after the Demon Eye Technique became a "rule of the Demonic Path," it was empowered with "Heavenly Demon Authority," which must have brought about significant changes compared to before.

Moreover, she was not in the ordinary state of the "Dream-Eating Old Demon" at this time.

In the "Heavenly Demon Realm," she also possesses additional authority bestowed upon her by the Heavenly Emperor.

She herself couldn't accurately grasp these new powers without putting them to the test.

Once they tried it, they couldn't stop.

Using the Heavenly Demon form to unleash the Dream Erosion Spell over a wide area is so exhilarating, so liberating, so incredibly satisfying! My power is increasing so rapidly, and the benefits are immense.

Previously, for her to enter someone's dream, the other person had to be truly asleep—lying in bed in a deep sleep.

Now, as soon as the other person's mind wanders or some thoughts start to doze off, she can easily erode their mind. She treats their mind as a breeding ground for inner demons, nurturing distracting thoughts into demonic ideas, and then harvesting those demonic ideas like leeks.

Before becoming a demon, Xiaoyu needed to complete "N kinds of powerful killing methods" to use the "Demon Eye Technique: Demon Eye God-Stealing Chapter". Then, she wrapped the will of the "powerful killing method" with the corrosive Chaos Demon God's essence (which was also her own magic essence), creating a "sugar-coated bullet" - a foreign object.

Now that she has become a demon, the Demon Ancestor, and merged with the Great Dao of Rahu, she directly used the "Dream Erosion Curse" to leverage the power of the Great Dao, allowing the power of the rules to descend upon the area she could see and feel.

The power of the rules, combined with her own magical origins, naturally generated "Spell: Strange Object".

The curse and the strange object, through the dream dimension, are like intelligent cruise missiles, actively locking onto their target (those whose thoughts are partially dozing off).

It can affect hundreds or thousands of cultivators at once.

Of course, without the "Will to Kill" buff, the Curse of the Otherworld is not as powerful as the original "God-Stealing Otherworld".

A strong will to kill can absolutely destroy the opponent's mind and beliefs, with a failure rate of zero.

The curse or foreign object may be detected by the other party, and then it can be exorcised using a protective spell for the mind.

However, because the "curse of the foreign object" did not contain any fragments of her own soul (the will to kill), she suffered no loss even after being exorcised by the exorcism spell.

It wouldn't be to the point of losing part of one's soul, suffering unbearable pain, or being weak for a long time.

There's little to no loss, minimal side effects, but plenty of benefits.

First, the eroded magical power and soul of the Xuanmen cultivators did not disappear, but instead became the magic power and soul power of the Dream-Eroding Old Demon.

After wreaking havoc on the entire cave, the Dream-Eating Demon's demonic power (not immortal magic power) doubled!
His soul power increased tenfold!
Such a terrifying improvement occurred in just one day. What one day's gains is equivalent to tens of thousands of years of arduous cultivation by a true immortal of the Xuanmen sect.

The more powerful the magic and the stronger the mental strength, the greater the power and the wider and more profound the influence of the "Dream Erosion Curse".

Even a Golden Immortal could fall victim to this if he is not careful.

The thrill of her rapidly expanding power was irresistible to her.

She knew that offending the Great Immortal would have serious consequences, but she couldn't control her instincts.

This can be considered one of the side effects of practicing demonic arts!
The demonic thoughts not only erode the Dao heart of others, but also corrupt her own Dao heart, transforming it into a lawless, wicked, audacious, and unscrupulous demonic heart.

Secondly, the more Xuanmen cultivators the Old Demon of Dream Devouring harms, the deeper his connection with the Great Dao of Rahu, and the greater his power as a Heavenly Demon. The greater his power, the stronger his demonic curse.

In other words, the more she harms Xuanmen cultivators, the faster her cultivation level increases, the stronger her curses become, and the more Xuanmen cultivators she can harm.

Initially, the Taoist priests in the celestial palace could have their minds enveloped in a golden light simply by reciting the calming mantra, preventing external evils from invading.

Having wreaked havoc on the entire cave, Xiao Yu, who had achieved minor mastery of demonic arts, launched a surprise attack, immediately causing the Taoists and immortals who were chanting calming mantras to fall victim to his magic as well.

She wasn't this strong from the start. Her cultivation level had been rapidly increasing throughout the process of eroding the cultivators of the cave.

Finally, as Meng Shi Xiaoyu's understanding of the demonic path deepened and her connection with the Great Dao of Rahu became more profound, the deduction speed of the "Method of Forcefully Killing Wutian" also accelerated, and its completion rate increased.

Master Jiugong speculated that the old demon had broken through the realm of the Demon Ancestor.

One can only say that he truly deserves to be called a Great Immortal; he saw through the essence at a glance.

When the "Method of Forcefully Killing the Unruly" was 20% complete, Xiao Yu, in her Heavenly Demon form, felt that the world before her eyes was inexplicably much more familiar.

It's as if I've become the Son of Heaven, able to have whatever I want.

It was only because she had cracked a portion of the permissions of the "Great Dao of Rahu" and thus glimpsed the heart of the Pangu world—the Heavenly Heart!
After a Xuanmen Daluo Immortal merges with the Dao, the "Heavenly Heart Imprint" is directly imprinted on the Heavenly Dao.

The Demonic Sect is a sham, not in accordance with the Dao of Heaven, but rather in accordance with the "Will of the Demon Ancestor Rahu".

Rahu has already transformed into the Tao, and his will has merged into the heart of heaven.

For the Demon Ancestor of the Demonic Sect, Rahu's will was not only a middleman, but also an obstacle preventing them from touching Pangu's Heavenly Dao. Of course, without Rahu's will, and without completely sacrificing themselves to the Demon Ancestor Rahu, they would never be able to achieve Dao.

Now, Xiaoyu has found and cracked the flaw in the "Will of Rahu" through the "method of forcibly killing Wutian" and stolen a small part of Rahu's Heavenly Dao.

Once she has fully mastered the "method of killing Wutian," destroyed Wutian, and completely seized the Heavenly Dao of Rahu, she will become the new "True Demon Ancestor."

"Wutian is dead, Mengshi shall rise!"

He is no longer the false Demon Ancestor who merges with the Great Dao of Rahu, but the true Demon Ancestor who merges with the Great Dao, leaves his mark on the Heavenly Heart, and is on par with the Dao Ancestor.

With such enormous benefits, how could Meng Shi Xiaoyu not be excited?
Just as the Old Demon of Dream Erosion was wreaking havoc in the Great Yuan Heaven of Extreme Profoundness, more than three thousand miles away from Mount Kuaiji, in the Cai Family Manor west of Yinling City.

A short, stout old Taoist priest with white beard and hair, looking like a hermit, was sitting cross-legged beside a Bagua alchemy furnace, smiling and looking at the young man inside the furnace with burning eyes.

"Almost there, almost there! In just three more days, the old Taoist's Elixir of Forgetfulness will be ready! Hahaha~~~"

The young man looked to be in his late twenties. He was sitting naked and cross-legged inside the alchemy furnace, like Sun Wukong being thrown into the Eight Trigrams Furnace by Laozi.

However, the alchemy furnace used to refine Wukong was filled with the Six Ding Divine Fire, which almost burned the monkey to ashes.

At this moment, the alchemy furnace contained only water; it was not being refined by fire, but by water. The young man's eyes were closed, his expression shifting constantly—one moment joy, the next sweetness, then pain, then sorrow.
"Thump~~" A muffled sound came from outside the house, and another gaunt old Taoist priest crawled out of the ground and shouted through the door, "Immortal, Immortal, something terrible has happened!"

This old Taoist priest was quite peculiar. Where there should have been two eyes, there was only smooth skin. Instead, four eyes were open on his forehead, near his hairline: one eye in front of him, two above his ears, and one at the back of his head.

"Old ghost Tianmu, what are you yelling about?" The old immortal who was refining pills with water in the room changed his expression, lowered his voice and shouted angrily: "I have been preparing for two hundred years to refine this batch of Forget-Love Immortal Pills!"

"If you wake up the 'human elixir' inside the furnace and ruin my plans, I'll devour you alive!"

Tianmu Daoist remained calm despite his anxiety, only lowering his voice and daring not to approach the house where the alchemy was taking place.

"Old man, elder brother, something really serious has happened! We're all at a loss, that's why we've come to ask you for advice."

"If you delay for a moment and let the alchemy furnace run on its own, it won't cause any major problems!"

With a flash of light, the old man inside the house passed through the wall and arrived outside.

He pulled the old Taoist priest Tianmu along and walked more than ten feet to the other end of the courtyard before asking in a normal accent, "Is it still about those two little brats, Mi Xin and Shi Hun?"

"It's not them, but it's somewhat related to them. Mi Xin has already transformed into Dao, and Shi Hun has consumed the old man's 'Demon Bone Blood Fusion Pill'."

After devouring thirty pairs of boys and girls, his demonic soul was reforged, and he was able to barely obey your commands and participate in the calamity.

"But without the Bewitching Heart, we are ultimately one person short. 'Heaven' has chosen another old demon," said the Old Taoist of Heavenly Eye.

"Such a trivial matter?" The old man's kind, round face turned ferocious, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

"Old man, please don't be anxious, I haven't finished speaking!" The old Taoist Tianmu took two steps back and hurriedly said, "Of course we know, with your Taoist cultivation, Heaven's choice of another old demon to join the calamity-laying ceremony could not be kept from you."

These past two days, we've been wandering around Kuaiji Mountain, waiting for that old demon to appear so we can subdue him immediately and bring him to pay our respects to you. Uh, what I mean is, waiting for you to refine the demon elixir—”

"It's an elixir of immortality!" the old man corrected in a deep voice.

"Well, once you've refined the elixir, we'll have that newly arrived old demon kowtow and pay his respects to you. But we've waited two days and haven't sensed the old demon's presence."

It turns out he didn't come to Kuaiji Mountain, but went directly to the Jixuan Dayuan Heaven, where he caused a ruckus, even alarming the Nine Palaces True Man.

At this moment, all the immortals of the Great Profound Heaven joined forces to chant the incantation for exorcising demons and calming the mind. Golden light of the Great Dao filled the heavens and earth, and most of the calamity energy brought by Dong Ye Dan's tribulation was dispersed.

The old Taoist Tianmu exclaimed excitedly, "Old man, if the calamity energy is gone, and the 'Heavenly Demon Realm' cannot be formed, how can we set up the calamity?"

I'm afraid that as soon as he shows his face, he will be beaten to death by the Four Friends of Qionglin with their great supernatural powers.

If we are already like this, then those unorthodox practitioners who came upon hearing the news, intending to seize the Nine-Turn Bone-Changing Pill, probably wouldn't even dare to make a move.

When the old man heard that the old demon had caused a great disturbance in the Great Yuan Heaven, his face immediately darkened, and he was about to curse, "Where did this brat come from, so ignorant of the rules?"

But when he heard that even the Nine Palaces True Man was alarmed, and that the Great Yuan Heaven of Extreme Profoundness had set up the "Ten Thousand Immortals Formation", the anger on his face turned into shock.

The shock was fleeting, leaving only solemnity and contemplation on his face.

After a long pause, he spoke in a gentle tone, "Could it be that an old friend has come? Is he from the North Sea, or the Western Wilderness? Or perhaps the Heavenly Origin Dharma King from the Southern Wilderness?"

Daring to provoke the Nine Palaces True Man, yet still alive and kicking, even forcing the Great Yuan Heaven of Extreme Profoundness to set up the "Ten Thousand Immortals Exorcising Demons Formation," this is definitely not a "little demon brat," but must be an old monster who has lived for millions of years.

Just like him, the Grand Elder of the Southern Demonic Sect.

He can probably escape from the Nine Palaces Master, but he must retreat immediately upon contact and flee without lingering to cause further trouble.

Therefore, the other party may be even more ancient than him, an ancient ferocious demon!
The old Taoist Tianmu shook his head and said, "This junior is ignorant and cannot discern the other party's origin. I do not recognize Soul Devourer, Seven Apertures, Extreme Yin, or Xuanyuan."

We stood outside, gazing into the distance, and dared not approach.

All that is known is that he is extremely ferocious and has already devoured the Dao hearts of thousands of immortals.

The demonic laughter of "heh heh" even reached beyond the cave.

Even the immortal caves near Kuaiji Mountain received an emergency notice, becoming extremely tense and on high alert.

They either moved their entire families away to seek refuge for a few days.

They should either seal off their cave and activate the protective mountain array, or absolutely not venture out at this time.

The Immortal of Forgetfulness frowned deeply. "It is indeed an unparalleled ferocious demon. But a mere pill tribulation, not the Heavenly Demon Tribulation that leads directly to the Great Luo realm after severing the three corpses, how could it have alarmed such a prehistoric monster?"

The old Taoist priest Tianmu nodded and said, "It is indeed a bit strange. In the past, if an old demon who was setting up a calamity died prematurely, 'Heaven' would just take it as the will of Heaven and would not arrange for someone else to do it."

This time, not only did they choose someone else, but they also chose such a powerful and ferocious old monster.

This is very abnormal.

The Immortal of Forgetfulness stroked his white beard and slowly smiled, "In any case, he is a member of our Holy Sect, and a great power at that. We should be happy and show him respect."

"Well, you go and meet him on my behalf, say hello, and ask him what he thinks of Dong Ye's Nine-Turn Bone-Changing Pill."

Once you've confirmed his identity, background, and purpose of visit, then you can come back.

The immortal paused, his expression turning serious. "Don't come any further, and don't let that old demon know about the 'Epiphyllum of Oblivion.' We'll just have to entertain him. Wait until tomorrow noon... or rather, I'll arrive at the foot of Mount Kuaiji at 3:45 AM tomorrow morning."

The old Taoist priest Tianmu nodded first, then asked, "If the other party had ill intentions, why would I have come here to inform you in advance?"

The old man frowned again.

"Forget it, I'll go to Kuaiji Mountain now and meet him. If he has good intentions, then naturally we'll all be fine."

Even if he wants to pay homage to that elixir, I will give him face.

"But if he speaks rudely and doesn't know his place, if we can surround and kill him, we'll devour him. If he really is an ancient demon, we'll let him play around and just watch from the sidelines to see how he gets besieged by the Xuanmen Da Luo!" the old man said sinisterly.
