Cultivation begins with planting techniques

Chapter 375: Pressure on a Sect, Coveting and the Suspicion That Follows

In fact, not all demonic sects are utterly evil and murderous.

They may even be inferior to some righteous sects in terms of killing.

But if we really talk about it, the application of magic secrets to the nourishment of living beings is indeed quite fruitful, far exceeding other ways of cultivation.

According to this situation, if we find ten demon sects and kill nine of them directly, I'm afraid only half of them are innocent, and the remaining one may be even worse.

Therefore, when Li Ye took action to seize the spiritual vein, he did not have any major concerns. He would not deliberately kill any living beings or demons, but he did not have to hold back at all!
Apart from the fact that the battle between good and evil is currently in chaos and the demons are quite preoccupied with themselves, there is no need to worry about being disturbed by Nascent Soul cultivators.

This is also part of the reason why Li Ye chose the Demonic Sect to practice the soul-stealing method.

Whoosh whoosh—

One after another, uniquely shaped flags fell down, like nails being driven into the seemingly indestructible formation that was operating to its limit and had transformed into many demonic faces.

In an instant, the flags connected to form a formation and merged into the operating formation, breaking it immediately. The entire formation collapsed as the evil spirit escaped!

With Li Ye's current ability, he can break through the third-level formation even if he only relies on the power of his own puppet.

Not to mention that he knew that this large formation was full of loopholes. He could make it ineffective by just prying it slightly with the means of formation, so why bother using brute force?

"Everyone from this sect must leave immediately. If you disobey, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Li Ye had a handsome middle-aged appearance, a cold and domineering attitude, and looked down at the group of cultivators in the mountains below without questioning them.

He has given these evil cultivators a chance, and what the outcome will be depends on their own choices.

At this time, a withered old man with a cultivation level of the late Jindan stage appeared from the mountain, with a humble and respectful attitude.
"Senior! My Ghost Sect is a subordinate of the Yin Demon Sect, and we have no grudges against each other in the past. I wonder what you are interested in from our sect? As long as you are willing to stop, I will offer it to you immediately!"

Knowing that he had moved out of the backstage, he was willing to offer treasures to ward off disasters and solve problems. If Li Ye had not been after the spiritual veins of this place, he would have been happy to take the things and leave.

But unfortunately, what he wanted was the spiritual vein of this place, and there was no room for further negotiation.

Being able to let them leave means that he still has some reason.

"Go or not?"

Li Ye asked again, and the pressure of the Nascent Soul emerged, suppressing the entire sect!

"Senior, please show some mercy. We will leave now!"

Under this pressure, the skinny old man turned pale and apologized repeatedly.

It was suspected that an unidentified Nascent Soul cultivator took advantage of the great war between good and evil to launch surprise attacks on many Jindan and Nascent Soul sects and destroy their spiritual veins. It was suspected that he had other intentions. The news had already spread among the countries in southern Xinjiang.

How could this skinny old man not know?
He may have had some doubts before, but as the irresistible pressure came, he no longer had any hope and agreed immediately.

He immediately turned around and summoned the entire sect to evacuate, not daring to delay any longer.

Watching the demon cultivators fleeing as fast as locusts, Li Ye waved his hand and a large number of puppets emerged, quickly setting up a soul-stealing formation.

Another part went straight to the sect's treasury.

There are not many third-level items that are still useful to Li Ye, but the resources in the southern border cultivation world are so abundant.

The treasure trove of this Jindan sect is incomparable to the Jindan sects in the four countries.

Judging from the several Jindan sects he had previously conquered, most of them had some fourth-tier treasures hidden away! He himself simply landed at the core of the spiritual vein here and sacrificed the Wood God Cauldron!

As the formation was activated, spiritual energy surged and surged, causing the origin to be withdrawn.

Li Ye's vigilance also increased to the limit. At this time, any cultivator who came to destroy the formation would make his attempt to extract the origin fail, or even backfire on his Wooden God Cauldron.

The difficulty of performing the soul-stealing method again will be much greater, so you must be more careful.

However, from breaking the formation to ordering this group of demon cultivators to leave, it didn't even take half a minute, so there was plenty of time to seize the spiritual vein.

Unless there is a demonic Nascent Soul cultivator who is directly in charge and waits for the opportunity, it is impossible for him to arrive here to provide support in a short period of time.

After all, Li Ye was quite cautious in choosing the target to attack.

Basically, they are sects that are far away from the major Nascent Soul sects and have a certain distance from the surrounding forces, making it inconvenient to report news and provide assistance.

In addition, he acted as fast as lightning, giving these demon sects no chance to react, so there was no need to worry too much about the appearance of the demonic Nascent Soul.

The ones who need to be careful may be those Nascent Soul cultivators who happen to be nearby and are curious about this!
"I never thought that the southern border countries, which also experienced the invasion of the demons, didn't pass down the soul-stealing method..."

Li Ye remained alert, and at the same time, his spiritual sense sensed the numerous puppets that were flying out, and there was still some doubt on their faces.

He had gone to great lengths to break through the Jindan Sect one after another, and the destruction of their spiritual veins had already caused some discussion.

Regardless of whether they were good or evil, they gradually changed from cheering or scolding him at the beginning to exploring his behavior.

I began to doubt his behavior. Maybe he was using the spiritual veins of various sects to practice some secret techniques or refine some kind of treasure. I gradually developed a special kind of greed and interest in him!
And in this discussion, no one mentioned the Soul Stealing Technique from beginning to end.

This really surprised Li Ye... Although he had not heard of the name of the Soul-Snatching Method, he believed that some major sects should have mastered this method.

From this perspective, it seems that there is no trace of the soul-stealing technique in the countries of southern Xinjiang!
But according to what he knew from those Jindan demons, methods like the Soul-Snatching Technique were quite common in the demon world, and it could be said that any force above the Foundation Establishment stage could master them.

The only real restriction on its application is the Treasure of the Void.

Under these circumstances, it makes no sense that the monks who wiped out the demons ten thousand years ago did not seize this technique from the demons... but why didn't they pass it down?

Li Ye thought silently, and couldn't help but think of the fact that the envoy of Yanshen Sect did not show any interest in the remains of Tiangong Temple in the lava underground palace.

Ten thousand years ago, after the various sects besieged and destroyed the Tiangong Hall and repelled the demons, what exactly happened?
How come so many traces have been erased, and even the Mu Shen Sect that dominated southern Xinjiang seems to have no information left in the world?
Although ten thousand years is a long time, for a Nascent Soul Sect, it may be able to sustain it for a thousand or even tens of thousands of years, and a God Transformation Sect is even more powerful than that. It is absolutely impossible for them to wipe out their traces so completely!

The more the comparison was made, the more Li Ye felt that something else might have happened, which led to the current situation where the human world seemed to have regressed and was even disconnected from the spiritual world.

I don’t know if there are any other deeper impacts!

"With my current strength, I still can't really investigate what happened back then. Let's just focus on the present..."

Li Ye's flickering eyes narrowed.

As the earth trembled, countless spiritual energies condensed in the Wood God Cauldron.

Another third-level spiritual vein origin is obtained!

Li Ye took the tripod and felt in a good mood.

"There are only two more steps left to complete. Once this is done, I can focus on looking for opportunities to achieve Nascent Soul Formation!"
