The ancestor is incompetent!

Chapter 133 Collecting Tribute
Li Yuan turned around and saw that they were the two people who called themselves Black and White Impermanence.

At this moment, the two of them had anxious looks on their faces, as if they were the ones being killed.

Hei Wuchang shouted angrily: "Boy, you dare to kill the disciples of the Demon Sect! You don't want your life, but we still want it!"

"That's right. If you do that, you'll probably die!" Bai Wuchang advised, "Let him go quickly."

"Let him go?" Li Yuan remained unmoved and said, "How can I let go of my mortal enemy?"

"How dare you while we are here!" Hei Wuchang said angrily.

"Boy, there is an Immortal Sect Master in this Demonic Abyss, do you really dare to take action?" Bai Wuchang stared at him and said directly: "If the Master were to go in and take action, I'm afraid half of the entire Beilin City would be destroyed!"

Li Yuan's mind moved, and he said with a smile: "You can let him go, but you must tell me all the secrets here, and let me hear whether they are true or false."

"How dare you lie about real people's affairs?" Hei Wuchang shouted loudly: "Just let him go, and we can talk about anything."

"Okay, I'll believe you this time." Li Yuan smiled and raised his hand. Nine ghost generals immediately led all the ghosts into the Thousand Souls Banner.

The devil had a way out, but he just stared at Li Yuan fiercely and said, "Just wait!"

After saying that, he turned around and disappeared into the mist.

"Please tell us what you two are talking about." Li Yuan looked at the two Impermanences.

"What are you talking about? We don't have time to talk to you here." Bai Wuchang rolled his eyes, his long tongue moving, and was about to leave.

Li Yuan was not surprised, he just smiled and said: "Then I'd better kill him."

"He's already run far away, can you catch up with him?" Hei Wuchang laughed.

Li Yuan stretched out his hand and pointed in the distance. Suddenly, a crow's cry was heard in the dark fog, and the devil's angry roar was heard in the distance.

"What kind of monster is this? I am an inner disciple of the Tianluo Demon Sect. How dare you eat me!"

"How dare you, boy, lie to us two!"

Hei Wuchang's face was gloomy and murderous intent emanated from him.

"You two don't trust me at all, so you must be on guard." Li Yuan said disapprovingly, "My demon pet is a mutant demon general that feeds on evil spirits. Although this demon is a third-level demon, he is injured and can't hold on for long. You two don't have much time left."

"You!" Veins bulged on Hei Wuchang's face and he was about to attack, but was stopped by Bai Wuchang.

He could only say: "Boy, what do you want to know?"

"Is this Beilin City or the Demon Abyss?"

"Boy, I'll tell you the truth. This is the Demonic Abyss. The Thunder Attribute's suppression is only to prevent the monsters in Beilin City from setting foot in that prison place. After all, once you enter the island, you can't leave without the guidance of a real person." Bai Wuchang sighed.

"This is just a place of trial for the disciples of the Immortal Sect, and you, the people from the Prison Land, as well as the many ghosts, evil spirits, and monsters, are the trial."

“The most powerful person here is only at the seventh level. Once someone exceeds that level, he will be taken out by the real person who is in charge of this place.

As for what it was used for, no one knows. "Bai Wuchang finished speaking in one breath and said anxiously: "Can we let him go now? If any inner sect disciple dies, the real person will definitely ask about it!"

"Oh? Why is that?" Li Yuan asked in confusion, "Isn't it said that the demons are cruel and ruthless, bloodthirsty and insidious? Is it that the immortal sect is different?"

"Humph, that's why they can't be killed!" Hei Wuchang said unhappily, "These inner disciples must have some tricks left by their masters. If their masters need any flesh and blood, they can just use it.

Otherwise, these disciples will be the bodies that the demons have cultivated for themselves. If they encounter a powerful enemy one day, they will be possessed by the demons and become their new bodies.

So if you touch the inner disciples, you are touching the interests of the great true cultivators and even the real people of the Demon Sect, and you are seeking death!"

"I see."

Li Yuan smiled and nodded, calling back Shen Ming. The black crow landed on his shoulder, staring at the Black and White Impermanence with a pair of sharp eyes.

"You two can rest assured. I will take my leave now."

After he finished speaking, the black light dissipated and turned into a flock of hundreds of crows that flew into the fog and disappeared, leaving only the Black and White Impermanence.

The two men, one tall and one short, communicated secretly using their souls.

"How much do you think this kid believed?"

"I think he believed most of it. We were telling half the truth and we looked so desperate, so he would naturally believe it a little bit."

"That's good. But why does the black crow on that boy's shoulder look so extraordinary? Even looking at it makes me feel scared."

"I'm afraid it's some alien species. We need to be more careful next time we take action."

……

In the Xuanyuan Realm, Li Yuan withdrew his magical power. When the two ghosts "Black and White Impermanence" responded just now, he was using his magical power to sense the truth and falsehood. These two ghosts must know a lot of inside information, but it is obvious that they are hiding their abilities.

But one thing is certain, Nanjue Island is a prison. Unless you have achieved the Golden Elixir or become a real person, you cannot get out.

Even if we reach the South Sea, it will probably be a remote place like a place of exile.

The central continent, where the twelve immortal sects are located, is just a thought for everyone on the island.

It seems that we should leave Beilin City as soon as possible and not stay here for too long.

However, before going out again, Li Yuan must be cultivated to the sixth level, at least the sixth level. Then leave this place and make a final effort to reach the top, otherwise it will be useless after returning.

In less than a hundred years, Master Jiang will surely cause great trouble in his quest for the throne, and he may even massacre all the Taoists on the island again.

Because even though Nanjue Island has been influenced by Master Jiang's status for thousands of years, and has been painstakingly managed and blessed for more than three thousand years, it is still an isolated island overseas.

Impacting the status must be inseparable from the manifestation of the status. The rosy clouds in the sky are easy to find in the sea, but the mountains and earth, relying only on Nanjue Island, are still somewhat lacking.

At this time, true cultivation is very useful, especially true cultivation of the five elements. Even if it is not earth virtue, it can still harmonize the five elements of heaven and earth and transform them into earth.

Jiang Zhenren would not personally do these things, Linglong Sect's group of cultivators would naturally do it for him. However, it was not certain whether Qi Ling Sect could survive.

If Master Jiang decided to go all out, he would naturally not care about the other scattered masters of Tianqi Xianzong. If he failed, he would die.

If that's done, then why would you be afraid of real people?
Qi Ling Sect was bound to be in danger, and it must be supported by a high-level cultivator! Although he had a backup plan, it was still better to have more protection.

In addition, as long as Yang Dongchen, who mysteriously disappeared, does not come out, Li Yuan will not be able to appear either.

Li Yuan did not want Yang Dongchen to succeed in ascending the throne, otherwise Li Yuan would probably have to remain in seclusion forever.

Otherwise, if Linglong Sect and Ke Hai knew that Qi Ling Sect had entered the secret realm in the past, and then thought about the disappeared personality, they would be exposed themselves.

But Yang Dongchen’s chance of ascending to the throne is really great, even greater than that of Master Qian Jing!

He shook his head and stopped thinking about his troubles. He used his divine sense to detect Li Yuan's progress in cultivation. In the past few years, he had captured more than a dozen evil spirits of true cultivators, which had greatly improved the Thousand Soul Banner. Even a mid-level true cultivator would have a headache facing the Thousand Soul Banner.

In addition, the little guy Shen Ming has swallowed a lot of ghost spirits in succession, and his strength has increased rapidly. Now he is almost at the second level.

You have to know that due to the long lifespan of demon cultivators, each cycle of cultivation takes more than sixty years, or even one or two hundred years. It has only been three or five years since it came to Beilin City, and it is amazing that it has been able to cultivate to this level.

As for Li Yuan, he is now almost at the fourth level. His Duwei Daotong is the mysterious Yin Qi, the manifestation of all Yin, and is famous for commanding all ghosts. Together with the reincarnation divine light among the nine lights, it is called the underground Dao. Therefore, the more ghosts he commands, the faster his strength will naturally increase.

There is no other place in the entire Nanjue Island that is more suitable for the practice of Xuanming Yin Qi than Beilin City.

……

Qiling Gate, on top of Wangyuan Peak.

Chen Guan and his group had been waiting for a long time, from dawn till sunset, when they saw two rays of light falling from the horizon.

Chen Guan immediately took the lead in bowing and said, "Greetings, Master Shangzong!"

Everything on the peak was quiet except for the sound of footsteps.

"Get up."

A slightly old voice was heard.

Chen Guan then straightened up, looked up with a smile, and before him appeared two true cultivators, one old and one young, both at the fourth level.

"Which mountain are you two from?"

The white-bearded old man in a purple robe smiled and said in a gentle voice: "I am from the Nanxu Mountain lineage, Taoist Cang Yun. This is my disciple, Yu Ying."

The kind-looking young man beside him smiled and said, "Hello, Mr. Daoist Chen."

Chen Guan looked flattered and said, "Your Excellency is too kind.

All spiritual supplies and other items have been prepared, please review them."

After saying that, he pointed to a treasure chest behind him, and the five peak masters opened them one by one.

Cang Yun checked it with a smile and said, "Not bad, fellow Taoist, you are thoughtful.

All along my journey south, you are the only one in Qiling Sect that has paid the full amount of tribute.”

"I will never forget what the sect needs." Chen Guan smiled and pointed to a person and said, "This is the most talented disciple in the sect. Please take a look."

Wang Qianlei, who had an upright posture and handsome face, was not afraid either. He stepped forward with a smile and said, "Hello, two seniors."

Cang Yun looked over with smiling eyes, was immediately startled, and said hurriedly: "No, no.

From now on, Qi Ling Sect only needs to pay tribute to the spirit objects, and no longer needs to accept disciples and followers."

Chen Guan said nervously, "Sir, why is this happening? Could it be that Qi Lingmen is not doing its best enough?"

"Haha, don't worry." Taoist Cang Yun said with a smile: "This is what the mountain master said personally, so don't worry, Fellow Daoist Chen."

"That makes me feel much more at ease." Chen Guan smiled and stepped forward, took out two storage bags and said, "Thank you for coming all the way here. I hope you will say good things about me."

Cang Yun accepted the storage bag without changing his expression, and nodded, "Don't worry, fellow Daoist, there will be no problem with Qi Ling Sect this time."

The two of them collected the spiritual funds and left without saying much.

Chen Guan, who was standing on Wangyuan Peak, watched the two of them leave. He then breathed a sigh of relief, waved away several peak masters, and left only Wang Qianlei.

"Qian Lei, do you know that decades ago, I would rather die than kneel on this Wangyuan Peak, but now I am willing to serve it as a slave?"

Wang Qianlei concentrated and thought for a moment before saying, "The Sect Master is trying to be patient."

"Forbearance, yes, it can be considered forbearance." Chen Guan laughed a little self-deprecatingly, "Back then, the upper sect was so powerful that I and the previous leader personally saw the decree and had no choice but to bow down.

Now the Supreme Sect seems to be soft-hearted, but in fact it is testing the hearts of all the sects in the world. I only need to bow and show my respect to resolve this crisis for the sect, so it doesn't matter whether my knees are straight or not.

Qian Lei, although you are gifted, in this world, if you don't become a god, you will be suppressed by the gods. I just want you to be careful in what you say and do, even if you become a true cultivator in the future, so as to avoid trouble for yourself.

It will be of great benefit to you, the sect, and your master!"

Wang Qianlei nodded and replied, "Yes! Master!
So is my master still alive?"

"When you become a true cultivator, you will naturally know!"

Chen Guan did not answer him. He just smiled, said this and turned away.

Wang Qianlei stood alone on the peak, looking at the sun setting in the west, and said to himself with a chuckle, "I knew it."

……

In the land of East Chu, the brilliance of Wu Earth's magical power shines in all directions.

Under the rosy clouds in the sky, all the Taoist traditions in the sacred mountains and precious lands were completely destroyed.

Countless monks screamed and begged for mercy, and turned into clouds under the glow of the sunset glow.

Above the sky, Fan Yangzi and Xia Changqi watched the tragic scene below quietly, unmoved.

When most of the cultivators were dead, Xia Changqi said, "Let's go to the next place."

Fan Yangzi frowned and said, "But there are still many people who have fled to the Wang family's territory. Since they have the intention of rebellion, they cannot be allowed to stay."

"As for the Wang family, the ancestor has his own arrangements. We don't need to create trouble. This time, the thirteen gates, nine roads, seven mountains and four valleys are going to be destroyed. We will have no way to escape." Xia Changqi sighed.

"Humph, if that damned Yang Dongchen hadn't taken away Shaoyang's position, one of us would have had a chance to ascend to the throne. Now, only that old woman Gong has obtained Shaoyin and is in seclusion to seek the position, making us all envious."

Fan Yangzi still couldn't help but feel angry, "Even if I can extend my life, I can only live for thirty to fifty years at most after waking up now. Without this opportunity, I will eventually become a withered skeleton."

"I heard that there is a ten thousand year old cold marrow in the Snow Song Valley, which can prolong one's life by sixty years. Why don't you give it a try? If you can get it, replenish your qi and blood, and then sense your position, you may have another chance to break through." Xia Changqi said thoughtfully.

"Xueyin Valley? Forget it, let's not go to that place." Fan Yangzi shook his head and sighed.

On the land below, Wang Qianli stood on the top of the mountain, looking at the receding glow and the dead silence outside the Wang family's home below. She felt a sense of powerlessness in her heart.

These small sects were exterminated by the entire Taoist school simply because they united to refuse to pay tribute to the spiritual objects. Those who follow the will survive, and those who go against it perish.

Linglong Sect, even if that real person is not here, the overlord that controls this land is still unshakable. Does she really have a chance to survive?

Wang Qianli closed his eyes heavily. His magical power had reached the sixth level, and he was not far from the seventh level. Would he fight for himself? Abandoning his clan ties, risking everything, to fight for that slim chance of survival?
