If the sect doesn't accept geniuses, they will become giants once they leave?

Chapter 234: Heaven-Devouring Demonic Art, Expedition to Eliminate Demons

If Leng Ningshuang hadn't been watching, Li Yanmo would have raised his hands and shouted "Long live!"

Everything went as smoothly as he expected.

The princes who accidentally entered the cave had never seen so many resources and treasures, so they naturally took them all in one breath, leaving nothing behind.

Although some prestige and experience were overflowed, those princes were all born as commoners and had a very low weight ratio in Dayu, so the overflow was only a few hundred low-grade spirit stones, which did not pose a threat at all.

Once Shen Ziqing has spent all the spirit stones, he will be able to go bankrupt on the spot, obtain the spiritual energy of the avenue, and restore the damage left to the Chi Che world over the past thousand years!

Leng Ningshuang was shocked to see Li Yanmo so excited. "What happened?"

"Nothing, just stretching."

"..."

The disaster in the mine lasted only about ten minutes. After a short while of being arrogant, the old man was crushed to pieces by a powerful man from Dayu through a distance. He didn't even have a chance to escape.

Without the control of the useless old man, the strength of the other corpse cultivators was greatly reduced, and they were killed by Zhou Yi and others in a blink of an eye.

Then comes search and rescue and post-disaster relief.

To give Li Lin and the others enough time to digest the resources within the mine's cave, the noble sons resorted to some drastic tactics, prolonging the cleanup process. Shi Dan, in charge of the search and rescue, knew Li Yanmo and the others' plan and naturally, with patience, cooperated with the noble sons' tactical tactics.

Of course, if he got angry, these noble princes would most likely take advantage of the situation to punish him and try to exile him.

The disaster at the mine naturally caused the wrath of the Dayu court, but Zhou Yi and other sect monks saw the injustice and drew their swords to help, and even saved the civilian Hou Shizi from the hands of many corpse cultivators.

Even if the imperial court knew that the old man with the useless corpse was related to the sect, it had no way to attack the entire Taoist sect. Not only could it not attack, it also had to reward Zhou Yi and others.

Not only did he successfully intensify the conflict between the commoner marquis and the aristocratic marquis, he also successfully obtained rewards from the Dayu Dynasty and even obtained the qualification to enter the Tianxu Tower.

Zhou Yi and others felt refreshed, but were not in a hurry to advance the plan.

Dayu suffered a loss in silence, but that doesn't mean he is a fool. If he rushes to push forward the plan at this time, mistakes are inevitable. Anyway, they are not worried that the conflict between the commoner marquis and the aristocratic marquis will be eased.

Before leaving, Zhou Yi and others invited Shen Ziqing to visit their sect.

Shen Ziqing did not agree directly, but instead invited Zhou Yi and others to visit Tianxu Tower in Jingzhou.

After some hesitation, Zhou Yi and others gladly accepted Shen Ziqing's invitation.

Although they were already qualified to enter Tianxu Tower, being led into Tianxu Tower by Shen Ziqing himself was another matter.

However, Zhou Yi and the others were also cautious. Only Zhou Yi, Cheng He, and Zhang Ke followed Shen Ziqing to Tianxu Tower. The others excused themselves and left, saying they had to return to the sect to report.

Shen Ziqing saw through it, but he didn't say anything. On the way to Tianxu Tower in Jingzhou, he didn't mention Zhou Yi and others' plan, but chatted about some family matters.

Only when they arrived in Nanyang City did Shen Ziqing's expression become serious.

"I think everyone should have heard some rumors. Jingzhou Tianxu Tower is different from Qianzhou Tianxu Tower. The predecessor of Jingzhou Tianxu Tower... is the tomb of Emperor Lie."

Zhou Yi and the other two held their breath.

Naturally, they had heard of the name of Emperor Lie's Tomb long ago.

With titles like Immortal Taboo, Lost Emperor, and Ancient Battlefield, the Fierce Emperor's Tomb has become a treasured site in the eyes of cultivators, no less precious than the Immortal Battlefield. However, even the most powerful sects lack the ability to find the Fierce Emperor's Tomb.

And this precious land actually became a part of Tianxu Tower a long time ago!

Although they had heard such rumors a long time ago, when Shen Ziqing admitted it himself, huge waves still surged in their hearts.

Tianxu Tower is so terrifying!
As an ordinary door was opened and huge gears turned, a bizarre world appeared in front of Zhou Yi and others.

Zhou Yi and the other two were stunned. "Three of you, please—"

At Shen Ziqing's call, Zhou Yi and others finally came to their senses and followed Shen Ziqing cautiously into the former tomb of Emperor Lie, now the Tianxu Tower.

There are people coming and going in Tianxu Tower, some are strangers and some are familiar.

Zhou Yi even saw many of the criminals on Dayu's wanted list.

Led by Shen Ziqing, the three of them came to the teahouse in Tianxu Tower, and four cups of tea were placed on the table.

Zhou Yi took a sip and his eyes widened. "This, this is spiritual medicine tea!?"

Cheng He and Zhang Ke, who had originally had no interest in drinking tea, suddenly became interested in it.

The so-called elixir tea is naturally tea brewed with elixir.

Only through alchemy can the medicinal properties of spiritual herbs be fully exerted. Making tea with spiritual herbs will not lose their medicinal properties, and the process is also simpler than alchemy, but it is really wasteful, so only super sects will do this.

"I wonder what your three plans are going to do next?" Shen Ziqing smiled and shook his teacup. He seemed to be indifferent, but his heart was bleeding.

Expensive! Too expensive!

If it weren't for the desire to squeeze the money back from the sect a hundred or a thousand times, he wouldn't be willing to use the elixir to make tea!
Zhou Yi and the other two exchanged glances and came up with an idea.

Shen Ziqing has already shown his sincerity, and it would be somewhat impolite for them to remain vigilant.

"Mr. Shen, do you know the Heaven-Swallowing Demonic Art?"

Shen Ziqing raised his eyebrows slightly, "I'd like to hear the details."

"The Heaven-Devouring Demon Art was once the signature magical skill of a demon lord. It can directly refine demons and cultivators of the same cultivation level. Not only can it turn them into puppets and control them directly, but it can also take over their cultivation level, magic formulas, lifelong learning, and even memories." Zhou Yi took a sip of the elixir tea and smiled meaningfully.

Shen Ziqing was shocked, but smiled calmly on the surface. "So that's how it is. If Dayu knew that someone had learned such a magic skill, he would probably kill them at all costs. But those commoners and marquises are well-versed in the books of sages, so they may not learn such magic skills."

"Books of sages? Hahaha - Master Shen, ah, Master Shen, what scholars are best at is making up excuses to justify all their evil deeds," Zhou Yi smiled contemptuously.

"They are all evil people, just like pigs and dogs. Naturally, I can do whatever I want with them."

"Although I have devoured their cultivation and skills with my magic, I will only use it to save the people of the world."

"There is no such thing as magic in this world, only evil people who abuse their power."

"I have done nothing evil. They are afraid of me because they have something to hide."

Shen Ziqing nodded thoughtfully. "Brother Zhou is right. There are so many gentlemen in this world, why don't they learn this man-eating magic? Eating people is eating people. If you are a true gentleman, just kill the evildoers. Why find so many excuses to eat people? But..."

Shen Ziqing paused and laughed.

"That Heaven-Swallowing Demonic Art might have some significant side effects."

Zhou Yi chuckled, "In this world, there are no such good things. He has eaten so many people that he can only rely on eating them to improve his cultivation. The memories and experiences he eats will not disappear, but will gradually infect the user of the Heaven-Devouring Demon Art."

"All we need to do is let that brat keep using the Heaven Devouring Demonic Art to devour people, and the opportunity... is right before our eyes."

"Dayu suffered a great loss this time and will definitely look for a reason to suppress the sect."

Shen Ziqing squinted his eyes and opened them slightly.

"An expedition to slay demons."
