Immortality and Cultivation: I Have Too Many Talents

Chapter 616 Dark Star Alliance (Please Subscribe)

The magic ruler floated up, instantly blazing with light, and with the force of wind and thunder, it struck the center of the defensive array from mid-air.

That is the weakest point in the Small Nine Palaces defensive formation.

at this time.

A figure suddenly appeared in front of us.

The golden body, sixteen feet tall, had a true spirit appearing behind it.

A divine ice dragon, twenty feet long.

The man stretched out his arm, which suddenly grew several meters long, and grabbed the magic ruler.

"who?"

Demon Lord Mo Chen's expression changed drastically.

When fully activated, the Magic Ruler possesses immense power, making it a rare power-type magical weapon.

However, the man, with his bare hands, managed to grab the magic ruler.

His physical strength was unprecedented in his life.

Mo Chen, the Demon Lord, activated his divine soul and manipulated the Demon Ruler, trying to break free from the man's grasp.

The magic ruler vibrated violently, twisting and struggling like a large fish, emitting mournful cries.

"Noisy!"

The man held the magic ruler in one hand and used the other hand with fingers pointing like a sword to lightly stroke the ruler's surface.

Mo Chen, the Demon Lord, felt a sharp pain in his brain, saw stars, and lost his balance.

The mark of his soul that he left on the magic ruler was easily erased by that person.

This is his natal demonic weapon, nurtured for over a hundred years!
Without hesitation, Demon Lord Mo Chen summoned the Soul-Seizing Pearl, which absorbed the dense demonic energy nearby, swelling to the size of a millstone before crashing it directly at the man.

"Good baby!"

The man spread his palm, which instantly grew to a huge hand several meters in diameter, and grabbed the Soul-Seizing Pearl in his hand.

Master Mo Chen quickly recalled the Soul-Capturing Pearl.

Too late.

The Soul-Capturing Pearl had its soul imprint erased by that person, revealing its true form.

"what!"

Two demonic weapons fell into the opponent's hands in succession, and their divine soul imprints were erased.

Mo Chen, the Demon Lord, was in a state of disorder and was about to collapse from exhaustion.

Only then did he realize that the person opposite him was a handsome young cultivator.

"who are you?"

He asked unwillingly.

After losing his demonic weapon, Demon Lord Mo Chen's combat power dropped significantly.

It can be said that they surrendered without resistance.

"Qingyun Sect, Xuanbing."

Shen Xuan said calmly.

Then, he unleashed a [Ice Soul Divine Light] to imprison Mo Chen Zhenren's spiritual power.

On the other side, Xu Ning's face was ashen, his hand gripping his magic sword. He was locked onto by Ling Zhenfeng's Serpent Demon Arrow and dared not make any rash moves.

At this moment, seeing that Demon Lord Mo Chen was easily defeated, he gritted his teeth and secretly activated a blood-red talisman.

The blood talisman transformed into a streak of crimson light, enveloping him as it flew away.

"Stay!"

Shen Xuan had already locked onto Xu Ningtie with his divine sense.

In a short distance, Shen Xuan used the [Yin Yang Walking] technique at an extremely fast speed.

Xu Ningtie's blood-red escape light was blocked by Shen Xuan.

The strange gold and cold iron rod appeared in his hand.

With a gentle swing, he accurately struck, knocking Xu Ningtie down from the blood-red light.

"In the Demon Realm, the [Nine Revolutions True Spirit Transformation] is still the most effective, completely ignoring the interference of demonic energy."

Shen Xuan thought to himself.

His strength was already far superior to that of Demon Lord Mo Chen and Xu Ning Tie.

The reason we waited until now to take action was to see what they were really up to.

Of course, he could also capture them and then search their souls.

However, generally speaking, soul searching is used by high-level cultivators on low-level cultivators.

The soul searcher's soul power is significantly higher than the opponent's.

If the difference in soul power is not significant, there is a great risk.

Moreover, the information obtained after searching the soul is incomplete.

After breaking through to the Core Formation Realm, third-tier cultivators possess many secret techniques that can resist an opponent's soul-searching attack.

They could even detonate their inner core to keep the secret and avoid torture.

Mo Chen, the Demon Lord, is at the mid-stage of the Demon Core realm, while Xu Ningtie is at the early-stage of the True Core realm.

But in front of Shen Xuan, the two were no match for him.

There wasn't even time for the inner core to self-destruct.

……

Deep within the giant stone magic circle.

In a hidden corner.

Shen Xuan forcibly created a quiet place here using his Xuanbing spiritual power.

The surrounding demonic energy was kept out by the transparent, blue-light ice wall.

Both Mo Chen Demon Lord and Xu Ning Tie had their magical power imprisoned by the Xuanbing spiritual power, their faces were pale, and their auras were weak.

Ling Zhenfeng was responsible for guarding the two men.

In another part of the blue-green ice wall.

Master Xuanyi sat cross-legged, his face still pale, but his breathing had become steady.

Shen Xuan slowly finished his practice, and the azure water elemental energy that filled his palm gradually dissipated.

"Senior Brother Xuanyi, how are you feeling?"

Upon seeing this, Mu Ling'er stepped forward to investigate.

"Fellow Daoist Xuanbing is indeed remarkable. I am fine."

Master Xuanyi said with a smile.

Seeing that his injuries had stabilized, Mu Ling'er finally felt relieved.

She turned to Shen Xuan, overwhelmed with mixed feelings.

Her beautiful eyes couldn't hide her surprise.

Fifty years apart.

To everyone's surprise, Shen Xuan, who was currently a Foundation Establishment cultivator and had a brief affair with her, had achieved such amazing success.

Not only did it lead to the attainment of the Ice Magic Golden Elixir.

Moreover, their combat prowess is extraordinary, and they are renowned throughout the nations.

He was renowned for his prowess during the great battle between the Yan and Song sects, defeating several True Immortals from the Yan state.

Even the veteran Golden Core and Wise Blade Master of the Overlord Blade Sect was defeated by him.

Amidst this surprise, Mu Ling'er harbored a subtle, indescribable regret.

If she had been more resolute back then, she would have humbled herself and married him.

Perhaps they can become husband and wife and live happily ever after.

In fact, Mu Ling'er was still too naive.

Shen Xuan never imagined that he would become involved with her.

The two relied on each other and spent a sweet time together.

Shen Xuan would never return to the Mu family with her.

Not to mention proposing marriage to the Mu family.

Shen Xuan's goal was clear: to cultivate diligently, improve his cultivation level, ascend to the Spirit Realm, and attain immortality and enlightenment.

When he saw Mu Ling'er, he didn't think too much about it.

The past is gone.

His gaze fell on the storage pouch at Mu Ling'er's waist.

"Ling'er, what's my payment?"

Mu Ling'er's delicate body trembled slightly.

After a few moments of stunned silence, he took out a small bottle from his storage bag.

"Here you go!" Mu Ling'er said irritably.

She hadn't expected Shen Xuan to be so pragmatic.

Shen Xuan took the small bottle, opened the mouth of the bottle, and scanned it with his divine sense.

Inside is a mature Bodhi seed, warm and smooth as jade, with seven buds on its surface, and a faint, mysterious light flowing through it.

Shen Xuan put away the Seven Hearts Bodhi and glanced at Mu Ling'er, who was pouting and angry.

He softened his tone and said gently, "Ling'er, this item is of great use to me. The Demon Realm is unpredictable. We should hurry up and get down to business."

Mu Ling'er stared at Shen Xuan with curiosity.

He was even younger and more handsome than I remembered, with an elegant and refined air.

At this moment, he exuded a sense of composure and calmness, as if everything was under his control.

At this moment, Mu Ling'er was filled with complex emotions and her heart was surging.

However, after gazing at her for a few moments, she finally said gently, "Okay."

……

Heal Master Xuanyi and snatch him back from the clutches of Yama.

Subsequently, Shen Xuan interrogated Demon Lord Mo Chen.

Inside the solitary Azure Spirit Ice Wall space.

Demon Lord Mo Chen was pale, his aura was weak, and his eyes were unfocused.
When he saw Shen Xuan, his pupils contracted slightly, still somewhat shocked.

Just now, Demon Lord Mo Chen was being guarded by Ling Zhenfeng.

He kept talking to Ling Zhenfeng, trying to persuade him.

The result was futile.

He didn't understand why Ling Zhenfeng would betray him.

Shen Xuan released some of the spiritual energy restrictions on Demon Lord Mo Chen, restoring his ability to move like an ordinary person.

"Fellow Daoist Mo Chen, you must be mentally prepared for this situation."

"Answer honestly, and I'll give you a quick death, bury your remains properly, and let you enter the cycle of reincarnation."

Shen Xuan spoke frankly.

"Xuanbing, what's your relationship with Qianfeng? If you have the guts, kill me! Then someone will avenge me!"

Mo Chen, the Demon Lord, was stunned for a few moments, then his face darkened and he said angrily.

Who will avenge you?

Shen Xuan shook his head.

"When people are alive, relationships remain; when people are dead, all ties are severed. Fellow Daoist Mo Chen, you're already this old, yet you're still so naive?"

"Didn't Qianfeng tell you? Was he afraid to tell you, or did you not dare to believe him?"

"Ink Dust Demon Lord sneered."

"Dark Star Alliance?"

"You know that's good! Our Dark Star Alliance spans several countries and is far more powerful than the True Meaning Sect and the Joyful Union Sect. I'm on orders this time. You've ruined our plans, and you won't have a good ending!"

"A bunch of treacherous scoundrels hiding in the shadows, too ashamed to even reveal their identities, yet they dare to speak so arrogantly—they're truly courting death!"

Shen Xuan said dismissively.

Before interrogating Demon Lord Mo Chen, Shen Xuan and Ling Zhenfeng had a discussion.

Ling Zhenfeng told him that the Dark Star Alliance was a hidden alliance of cultivators.

Everyone inside concealed their identity.

The threshold is a third-level cultivator.

The Dark Star Alliance has its own set of operating rules.

Some of them are similar to assassination organizations like the Shadow Assassins.

However, the Dark Star Alliance's business is not limited to assassination.

Espionage, buying and selling intelligence, infiltration and subversion, sabotage and instigation, trading stolen goods, etc.

They are all things that can't be brought to light.

The Dark Star Alliance has existed in the surrounding countries for many years.

The Liang Kingdom's Demonic Sect, in particular, had long been deeply rooted and flourishing.

Sects like the Yin Sha Sect are not monolithic.

From top to bottom, it has long been infiltrated by the Dark Star Alliance.

Many frustrated demon lords joined the Dark Star Alliance.

For thousands of years, the Dark Star Alliance has remained silent and patient.

In recent years, the Dark Star Alliance has become increasingly high-profile in its actions, showing a trend of moving from the shadows to the light.

Mo Chen, the Demon Lord, joined the Dark Star Alliance a long time ago and holds a considerable position.

He was the one who planned this operation.

The original intention was to eliminate the Dark Night Demon Lord, have him take over the Spirit Pool under the Dark Night Demon Lord's command, seize real power within the sect, and expand the influence of the Dark Star Alliance.

Xu Ningtie is a newcomer who has just joined the Dark Star Alliance.

He posted a mission inside, and his identity was discovered by Demon Lord Mo Chen.

Xu Ningtie wanted to find accomplices in the Dark Star Alliance to murder Xuan Yi Zhenren and seize the Seven Hearts Bodhi from him.

The two hit it off.

Ling Zhenfeng is a subordinate of the Dark Star Alliance that Mo Chen Demon Lord is planning to develop.

It's still under evaluation.

The first task I received was to assist Demon Lord Mo Chen, obey his orders, and work together to kill Demon Lord An Ye.

Dark Night Demon Lord is a veteran True Core mid-stage Demon Lord of the Yin Sha Sect.

The Dark Star Alliance tried to recruit him several times, but he politely declined.

the reason is simple.

The higher-ups of the Yin Sha Sect are on high alert against the Dark Star Alliance, ready to strike at the slightest sign of their presence.

The Dark Night Demon Lord is a beneficiary, controlling the Yin Sha Sect's Essence Pool and profiting handsomely in private.

They naturally did not want to associate with the Dark Star Alliance, lest it undermine their sect's authority.

This led to his death.

Mo Chen Demon Lord's tough stance was beyond Shen Xuan's expectations.

In the Demon Realm, time is precious.

Shen Xuan was unwilling to waste time and directly performed a soul search on him.

Soul searching at the same level carries certain risks.

But that's how it applies to other people.

Demonic cultivators are inherently weaker in soul power.

Shen Xuan's soul cultivated the [Purple Heaven Divine Thunder Soul Tempering Technique] during the Foundation Establishment stage.

It is often tempered with [Purple Heaven Divine Thunder].

His spiritual power is several times that of an ordinary demonic cultivator.

He felt no psychological burden whatsoever when he searched the soul of Demon Lord Mo Chen.

Seeing Shen Xuan so simply and brutally perform a soul search on him, Demon Lord Mo Chen looked on in disbelief.

"Isn't he afraid of being devoured by my divine soul?"

However, he thought too much.

Under Shen Xuan's soul-searching technique, Demon Lord Mo Chen's mind became increasingly confused, and he grew drowsy.

Half an hour later.

Mo Chen, the Demon Lord, has awakened.

After all, he was a mid-stage Demon Lord with considerable soul power.

"Xuanbing, you're so cruel!"

After his soul was searched, Demon Lord Mo Chen's soul was damaged, his realm fell irreversibly, and his cultivation was greatly reduced.

"trouble!"

Shen Xuan looked impatient.

Within the soul of Demon Lord Mo Chen, there is a protective restriction.

Regarding matters concerning the Dark Star Alliance, only the surface information could be found.

The core secrets are well protected.

"Mo Chen, I don't have time to waste here. Either you confess honestly and answer my questions, or I will repeatedly search your soul and forcefully break through your soul restriction."

"Think carefully. Do you want to cooperate with me and be reincarnated, or are you to be annihilated, your soul destroyed, never to be redeemed again!"
