Chapter 1188: Suppressing Evil
He arrived at the Exorcism Division and went straight to Huang Zhengyang's courtyard.

Huang Zhengyang was reading a book.

Chu Zhiyuan's gaze was immediately drawn to the scroll.

The book has a faint yellow tinge and a subtle sheen, making it immediately apparent that it is something special.

Seeing Chu Zhiyuan enter, Huang Zhengyang stood up to greet him and handed him the scroll in his hand: "Brother Chu, take a look at this."

Chu Zhiyuan took the scroll, which felt unusually heavy, like gold.

My extrasensory perception has already revealed that the scroll is not made of gold, but of a much heavier and more robust structure that is extremely difficult to damage.

He turned the book over to look at the cover, which read "Strange Tales" in three ancient and simple characters.

As Chu Zhiyuan turned the pages of the book, he asked, "Brother Huang, what is this...?"

Huang Zhengyang smiled and said, "Our Exorcism Division's secret scrolls are not available to outsiders."

Chu Zhiyuan said, "Can an outsider like me even see this?"

“Brother Chu, you’re no longer an outsider,” Huang Zhengyang said. “If it weren’t for you, demons would have already infiltrated the imperial city.”

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head: "It's just a coincidence. I didn't expect there to be such a strange object that can conceal the aura of evil."

"Catastrophe is coming again!" Huang Zhengyang said solemnly, "We're in big trouble!"

Chu Zhiyuan looked up at him.

Huang Zhengyang sighed, "What we encountered was the Undying Evil Lord... Did you see the records above?"

Chu Zhiyuan lowered his head and continued flipping through the pages, not in a hurry to turn to the volume about the Undying Evil Lord.

The records on it contain various evil spirits and demons from ancient times to the present, but what truly broadened his horizons were the ancient mythical beasts and wondrous treasures.

He quickly flipped through the pages and then turned to the page about the Undying Evil Lord.

The record describes the appearance of the Undying Evil Lord, its power, the experts who participated in its suppression, and where the suppression took place.

Chu Zhiyuan asked in surprise, "An Undying Evil Lord is being suppressed?"

"I only just found out that there is such a thing as the Demon-Suppressing Abyss," Huang Zhengyang said with a sigh, then frowned. "But what's strange is that this Demon-Suppressing Abyss doesn't belong to my Demon-Slaying Division!"

Chu Zhiyuan also showed a strange expression: "Shouldn't this belong to the Exorcism Division?"

Huang Zhengyang shook his head: "If it belonged to my Exorcism Division, I would have known long ago, and things wouldn't have turned out this way!"

He looked annoyed and sighed, "It's my fault, Brother Chu!"

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and waved his hand: "There's no such thing as harmful or not harmful."

Huang Zhengyang's expression was grave as he slowly said, "The Undying Evil Lord is unpredictable; it's not something that can be stopped simply by having high cultivation. Even we couldn't stop him, so you, Brother Chu, can't either."

Chu Zhiyuan laughed and said, "Brother Huang, don't forget that I have the Demon-Subduing Blade."

Huang Zhengyang shook his head and said, "That's because you, Brother Chu, don't know how powerful they are... The only way to suppress them is with the help of that divine artifact, but now..."

The artifact malfunctioned, which led to the rampage of evil spirits and even the reappearance of the Undying Evil Lord.

Chu Zhiyuan laughed and said, "Isn't Zhenxieyuan able to suppress the Undying Evil Lord?"

"It's also thanks to the power of the divine artifacts," Huang Zhengyang said in a deep voice. "Brother Chu, don't underestimate them. You've already offended at least three Undying Evil Lords. Their methods are unpredictable and impossible to guard against. It would be best if you came with me to the Abyss of Suppressing Evil."

Chu Zhiyuan asked curiously, "It's not like you can just go anywhere, is it?"

He knew without a doubt that this was a secret place, a forbidden area, and absolutely not to be approached casually.

If it were just Huang Zhengyang, he might have been able to get through, but with me added, it wouldn't have been possible.

After all, he was a disciple of the Heavenly Sword Sect, not a direct descendant of the imperial court, and therefore not among the most reliable.

Huang Zhengyang said solemnly, "I will find a way to get you there."

Chu Zhiyuan said, "Brother Huang, there's no need to go to such trouble. I can handle it."

Huang Zhengyang shook his head: "This matter cannot be taken lightly. Their attack methods are bizarre, and they are constantly attacking your mind. If you are not careful, you will suffer a qi deviation and die."

The above records demonstrate the terrifying nature of the Undying Evil Lord, leaving no room for complacency.

Only after a trip to Zhenxieyuan and having the experts there examine the situation can we determine whether Chu Zhiyuan can withstand the attack.

"It's not that scary," Chu Zhiyuan chuckled. "We destroyed those statues of the Undying Evil Lords, didn't we?"

Huang Zhengyang hesitated.

According to this ancient scroll, the statue of the Undying Evil Lord cannot be destroyed, only suppressed.

Before Chu Zhiyuan, not only were the statues of the Undying Evil Lord indestructible, but even ordinary Evil Lord statues were indestructible.

After Chu Zhiyuan arrived, he could destroy ordinary evil lord statues, and he could also destroy the statue of the immortal evil lord.

Chu Zhiyuan laughed, "If I can destroy the statue of the Undying Evil Lord, I can naturally handle their attacks as well. After all, without the statue, their power cannot be fully unleashed." Huang Zhengyang became even more hesitant.

What seemed impossible became possible in front of Chu Zhiyuan.

Could it be that these immortal evil lords are truly powerless against Chu Zhiyuan?

Chu Zhiyuan laughed and said, "Besides, if they were really that powerful, they would have dealt with me long ago, right? But I'm perfectly fine right now."

Huang Zhengyang nodded slowly.

These immortal evil lords are by no means lenient. The reason Chu Zhiyuan is still unharmed is not because they are lenient, but because they have no way to deal with him.

Thinking of this, he smiled: "Can it really stop them?"

Chu Zhiyuan laughed and said, "We have not been attacked by them so far."

"That's great!" Huang Zhengyang breathed a sigh of relief: "But we can't let our guard down..."

Just then, footsteps sounded outside, and a young man said in a deep voice from outside the door, "Si Zheng, another statue has appeared!"

"Damn it!" Huang Zhengyang cursed angrily, "This is never going to end, it's so annoying!"

Chu Zhiyuan said, "Is it the Undying Evil Lord? Then destroy it."

Huang Zhengyang sighed: "I'm afraid we won't be able to destroy it all."

"Let's see how many fall, or how fast I can destroy them," Chu Zhiyuan sneered.

He was eager to try it out.

The gold dust from the statue of the Undying Evil Lord is an extremely precious item that can rapidly enhance one's Golden Sword.

With each additional statue, his golden sword grew stronger.

……

A group of experts escorted the two of them to the front of a mountain peak.

The mountaintop was once again enveloped by white curtains, as if it were shrouded in white clouds.

This mountain is more than a hundred miles away from the imperial city, and there are no pedestrians around.

Chu Zhiyuan glanced at Huang Zhengyang: "Brother Huang, the two of us can go up."

Huang Zhengyang nodded solemnly and waved his hand, indicating that the other experts did not need to follow.

As the two reached the summit, a transparent tree of light gradually appeared behind Chu Zhiyuan, emitting a soft white light.

The mountaintop was shrouded in white curtains, and dozens of young people held up the white curtains with their backs to the mountaintop.

They stared wide-eyed at the giant tree, which was as thick as a person could hug, growing above Chu Zhiyuan's head and stretching straight up as if piercing through the void.

Its soft light covered an area of ​​ten feet in radius.

Anyone who was exposed to the white light felt a cool sensation throughout their body, as if moonlight were falling upon them.

Huang Zhengyang exclaimed in surprise, "Brother Chu, what is this...?"

Chu Zhiyuan said, "I'll try my newly mastered secret technique to see if it can restrain the Undying Evil Lord."

Huang Zhengyang looked up at the transparent tree of light and exclaimed, "It's amazing!"

He could feel the strange power contained within the light, which brought peace to his mind.

The initial anxiety vanished instantly.

I was initially worried that these statues of immortal evil lords would appear one after another, endlessly.

But now I suddenly feel that it's not a big deal, just destroy as many as you can.

The worries and pessimism in my heart quickly faded when illuminated by this light.

Chu Zhiyuan entered the white curtained area, looked up at the glittering golden statue, and saw that it still had three faces.

He breathed a sigh of relief; he was the first immortal evil lord, not a new one.

This means that the number of Undying Evil Lords has not increased, only the number of statues has increased.

Huang Zhengyang tried to look up at the statue, and it was no longer a blur. Under the aura of the Demon-Subduing Divine Tree, he was unaffected by the statue.

Without saying a word, Chu Zhiyuan drew his golden sword, which flashed several times.

Then the statue turned into dust, the dust forming a vortex in the air. Stirred by the golden sword, it fell to the ground, scattering and mixing with the soil.

He felt the golden sword's power increase and was filled with joy.

Before his smile faded, he felt a vast power descend straight down from the void.
