A Mortal's Journey: Starting as the Young Master of Demonic Cultivation

Han Li did not agree immediately, pondering the pros and cons.

Wen Tianren didn't urge him, but simply transmitted his voice, "Fellow Daoist Han can take his time to consider it. After all, that guy Ji Yin will definitely take you to the inner hall. There's still plenty of time for you to think it through."

After saying that, Wen Tianren closed his eyes again to rest and did not continue talking to Han Li.

With Ji Yin present, he was not worried that Han Li would refuse his conditions.

Meanwhile, just as Han Li finished his conversation with Wen Tianren and was pondering, he received a telepathic message from the Xuan Gu Old Demon.

He was invited to join forces with him to destroy the Extreme Yin, and Xuan Gu also brought him news of the Nine-Bend Spirit Ginseng, which could assist in the formation of the Nascent Soul.

Han Li then linked this matter with Wen Tianren's suggestion.

Ji Yin is not only highly skilled in cultivation, but also far more cunning than ordinary people.

Otherwise, how could the old demon Xuan Gu have fallen into his hands back then, and been forced to cultivate the path of ghosts and demons by him, completely blocking his path of reincarnation, making Xuan Gu wish he could grind him to dust!

Now that he has been targeted by this person, if he were to confront him head-on, the chances of him escaping would be extremely slim. It would be impossible for him to avoid entering the inner palace!

After all, the difference between the early stage of Core Formation and the Nascent Soul stage is simply too great.

Even if his magical artifacts and gold-devouring insects are incredibly powerful, he'll probably only be killed by others.

With Wen Tianren and Xuan Gu, two Core Formation cultivators far surpassing ordinary cultivators, and with his Golden Thunder Bamboo Flying Sword's ability to counter demonic arts, even if he couldn't kill Ji Yin, protecting himself from him wouldn't be a problem.

Therefore, Han Li first agreed to Xuan Gu's request to go and find the Nine-Bend Spirit Ginseng after the first trial.

However, Han Li did not tell Wen Tianren about Xuan Gu, nor did he mention Wen Tianren's plan to Xuan Gu.

He had to be careful around these two very cunning people.

……

Subsequently, the number of cultivators in the hall increased over the next five or six days, eventually reaching more than a hundred.

Those cultivators who arrived late found that the cultivators on the jade pillars were not to be trifled with, so they had no choice but to find a place on the floor of the hall to rest for the time being.

But after a few more days, the number of cultivators coming to this place gradually decreased, and not a single new person was seen entering this morning.

Around afternoon, footsteps finally sounded again at the entrance of the hall, followed by a flash of blue light, and two people walked in from outside, one after the other.

One was an old Taoist priest with white hair and a youthful face, and a ruddy complexion; the other was a thin, dark-skinned old man dressed as a farmer, with a bitter expression on his face.

Upon seeing these two, the cultivators in the hall stirred with excitement. Most of them looked at the two with awe, clearly recognizing them as Nascent Soul cultivators.

Wen Tianren narrowed his eyes as he looked at the two people who entered. He already knew who they were just by looking at their attire.

Tian Wuzi of the Righteous Path Heavenly Extreme Sect and another Righteous Path Nascent Soul cultivator, Mu Tengzi.

And soon, the truly heavyweight top figures from both the righteous and demonic paths, Wan Tianming and Manhuzi, will arrive.

Currently, the forces of the righteous and demonic factions are evenly matched in this Void Heaven Palace, and a fierce battle is inevitable in the future.

Shortly after, the two Nascent Soul elders who will preside over this event at the Star Palace will appear, signifying the official commencement of the Void Heaven Palace.

Upon seeing the two enter, Ji Yin and Qing Yi glared at them with extremely hostile eyes.

Especially the extremely yin old demon, whose expression suddenly turned sinister, and whose cold gaze fell on the two of them.

The two Nascent Soul cultivators who had just entered the hall also showed hostility upon seeing the two Yin Demons.

After the two flew to a jade pillar opposite the Extreme Yin, the old Taoist snorted and said directly, "Extreme Yin Old Demon! Return the mutated fire python of this island, or I will not be polite."

"That fire python was born of nature, when did it become your possession, Tianwuzi? You can't control it yourself, so naturally the capable should keep it. Why should it be returned to you? If you keep arguing, be careful that this patriarch will convert you!" He sneered coldly and replied in a sinister tone.

"Extreme Yin! Who do you intend to convert? Why don't you convert me too!" Before the old Taoist could retort, a deep voice came from the passageway outside the hall.

Upon hearing this voice, Ji Yin and Qing Yi's expressions changed drastically.

Madam Wen, who had been silent, put away her sword and stared at the entrance, speaking coldly.

"Wan Tianming, you've come too!"

"So it's Madam Wen in person. Since Madam Wen has come, what's so strange about her being here in person?" With this voice, a figure flashed outside, and a middle-aged man in a purple robe and jade belt walked in.

The man had a square face and thick eyebrows. When he opened his mouth, he had two rows of white teeth. He glanced at Madam Wen casually.

Then he looked at Ji Yin and the others, giving off an overwhelming aura.

Before anyone else could speak, the middle-aged man looked at Ji Yin and continued, "Ji Yin, last time you wiped out the entire cultivation family on Liuyun Island for the sake of the Void Heaven Remnant Map."

"I heard that your previous avatar and successor were actually killed by a mere Core Formation stage cultivator. It seems you're getting worse with age, only daring to target weak cultivators. However, Flowing Cloud Island is under the jurisdiction of my righteous sects. Your reckless behavior suggests you really think I, Wan Tianming, am just a figurehead?"

When Ji Yin was stared at so rudely by the middle-aged man, who was also questioning him, he unusually turned gloomy and kept his lips tightly closed, remaining silent.

This middle-aged man is none other than Wan Tianming, the leader of the righteous path and the master of the Wanfa Sect. Not only has his own strength reached the peak of the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm, making him one of the top cultivators below the Grand Master level, but he is also the nephew of the righteous Grand Master Wan Sangu. He is extremely yin and cannot be provoked.

However, Madam Wen had no such reservations. She raised her cold eyes and questioned him without any politeness: "Wan Tianming, my sword-wielding maid was injured by one of your disciples, wasn't she? How do you intend to explain this?"

"It's hardly an injury. My disciples just saw that your sword maid's cultivation was quite good, so they sparred a little. Madam Wen wouldn't make a fuss over such a small matter, would she?" Wan Tianming narrowed his eyes and said casually.

"What sparring! My sword maid is only at the early stage of Foundation Establishment. Your disciple is clearly bullying the weak. Are you deliberately trying to humiliate my disciple?" Madam Wen said coldly.

"To insult Madam's disciple? How dare I! For the sake of my husband Liudao, I'll have that disciple apologize to Madam later." Wan Tianming frowned slightly and said nonchalantly.

"What does my business have to do with the Six Paths? If you're unwilling, I'd like to spar with Sect Master Wan using the 'Phoenix Sword Technique'." Upon hearing this, Madam Wen became even more furious.

"Sparring with Madam? Forget about it. If Master Liudao found out, he'd come after me to my death. I don't want to start a war between the righteous and the demonic factions." Wan Tianming chuckled as if it were a ridiculous thing.

"you!"

Hearing this, Madam Wen was furious, but in the end she glared at the other party, turned away, and let it go.
