Reincarnation Immortal Venerable: Starting from the Ninety-Nineth Incarnation

The deafening roar of two figures descending from the sky and annihilating the demonic cultivators shattered the tranquility of Qiyun Sect in the dead of night, waking the disciples who were originally asleep.

In an instant, lights lit up all over the sect, dim light shone from the windows, and the sounds of hurried footsteps and shouts rose and fell as more and more people gathered toward the open space where the fight was taking place.

Li Yanzhou wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, supported the slightly staggering Su Qingyao, and looked at the two moon-white figures with awe in his heart.

At this moment, the open space was surrounded by disciples of the Qiyun Sect, including outer disciples, inner disciples, and several law enforcement disciples on duty. Everyone was discussing among themselves, their eyes filled with shock and curiosity as they examined the corpses of the demonic cultivators on the ground and speculated about the identities of the two moon-white figures.

Just then, a clear shout came from behind the crowd, breaking the murmur of conversation. The voice was filled with ecstatic joy: "It's Elder Chaohua! Elder Ruoxue! The two elders are back!"

The shout was like a thunderclap, instantly resounding throughout the entire area. The previously noisy crowd fell silent, and then, expressions of surprise and awe appeared on everyone's faces. They surged towards the square, shouting as they went, "Welcome back Elder Chaohua and Elder Ruoxue!"

Li Yanzhou and Su Qingyao had only been in the sect for a short time and had not yet met the two elders, so they asked one of their senior brothers about them. The senior brother quietly explained, "These two are the two most special elders of Qiyun Sect, Elder Chaohua and Elder Ruoxue. They always come and go in pairs. Their personalities are somewhat peculiar, but it's not intentional. It's rumored that they cultivated a special technique together when they were young, which is why they look like this. Although they look eccentric, their cultivation is profound, and they treat people very well. They are deeply respected by the disciples of the sect."

As they spoke, everyone had gathered on the plaza. On the ground lay the corpses of their fellow disciples and those of the demonic path. Two figures in moon-white robes stood side by side in the center of the plaza. They were tall and slender, wearing matching moon-white robes embroidered with cloud patterns. Their robes fluttered in the wind, and their faces were handsome with a gentle look in their eyes. They were Elder Chaohua and Elder Ruoxue.

The two shared a deep friendship and were inseparable, but they were by no means homosexual. After many years of companionship, they had become each other's most trusted partners. It was only because of the special cultivation method that their temperament had become gentle and their tone of voice had become more and more melodious.

They exuded a powerful aura of spiritual energy, which, though not ostentatious, was enough to make people feel the formidable strength of cultivators at the Transformation Realm.

"Oh dear, we've only been gone a few months, and the sect is already in such a mess, with even some demonic scum showing up. It's truly heartbreaking." Elder Chaohua held a delicate jade fan in her hand, gently fanning herself. Her tone was soft and charming as her gaze slowly swept over the crowd, a gentle smile on her face.

Elder Ruoxue raised her hand to straighten her sleeves, her eyes showing a hint of gentleness, and chimed in, "That's right, Brother Chaohua. Luckily we arrived in time, otherwise who knows how many disciples would have been injured. These demonic scum are really blind, they don't even know whose territory this is."

Elder Chaohua put away her jade fan, her tone becoming more solemn: "During this trip, I learned that the activities of the demonic path have become increasingly frequent recently. They are searching everywhere for remnants of the Qingxuan Sect and have even launched surprise attacks on various sects. It seems that they are planning something big. Although our Qiyun Sect does not make a big fuss, we cannot let them run rampant. In the future, when disciples go out, they must travel in groups and must not act alone."

Elder Chaohua's gaze continued to sweep across the crowd. Just then, his gaze suddenly stopped and landed precisely on Li Yanzhou in the crowd, a hint of surprise and curiosity flashing in his eyes.

He stepped through the crowd and walked up to Li Yanzhou. He gently lifted Li Yanzhou's wrist with his jade fan, a wisp of spiritual energy swirling around his fingertips as he carefully examined Li Yanzhou's cultivation and spiritual root. His tone was tinged with surprise: "Oh my, interesting, really interesting. You child, you clearly have mortal roots, yet at such a young age, you've managed to cultivate to the peak of the Qi Sensing Realm? This is a rare occurrence indeed! Just now, you were only slightly injured while fighting with those demonic cultivators at the Breath Suppression Realm."

Elder Ruoxue also came over, looked Li Yanzhou up and down, nodded, and said with a hint of approval, "That's right. For someone with mortal roots to have such cultivation, it's clear that you've been working very hard in your daily practice. You're quite a promising talent."

Li Yanzhou quickly cupped his hands in greeting and said respectfully, "Disciple Li Yanzhou greets the two elders." He was secretly on guard, fearing that the two elders would discover the existence of the spiritual jade in his sea of ​​consciousness. Fortunately, the two elders only examined the surface spiritual root and cultivation level and did not investigate further.

He had already deliberately concealed his aura of spiritual roots, and transformed the spiritual jade back into a mortal root, only displaying the cultivation of the peak of the Qi Sensing Realm. He said in a low voice, "This disciple was just lucky to have obtained a fragmented cultivation technique by chance, which allowed me to barely break through. I am not a genius." He deliberately kept a low profile, not wanting to attract too much attention, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.

"May I ask you two elders, what are demonic cultivators?" Li Yanzhou asked the question that had been on his mind.

Elder Chaohua seemed to see through Li Yanzhou's doubts and explained: "So-called demonic cultivators were originally cultivators of the Central Plains of the Myriad Paths. Due to various reasons, they were bewitched and exploited by people of the Demonic Path, and transformed from their original cultivators into demonic cultivators. They cultivate by absorbing blood essence. True demonic cultivators are not in the realm classification of my Immortal Path and cannot cultivate. They mainly focus on body refinement and are divided into: Bone Devouring Realm, Netherworld Realm, Underworld Lord Realm, and Underworld Emperor Realm."

"The cultivation levels of this demonic path are of the same origin as the levels of my immortal path. The Bone-Eating Realm corresponds to the three realms of mortal cultivation, and the Netherworld Realm corresponds to the three realms of opening a mansion. The other two realms are the same. Li Yanzhou, have you remembered this? If you encounter a demonic cultivator in the Netherworld Realm, your current level will be in for a lot of trouble." Elder Ruoxue covered her face and laughed.

Elder Chaohua smiled, and a flash of light appeared in his hand, revealing a pure white jade pendant. The pendant was engraved with intricate patterns and emitted a gentle spiritual aura. He handed the pendant to Li Yanzhou, his tone soft and charming: "This jade pendant is for you. It's a defensive magic treasure that can withstand the full force of a cultivator at the early stage of the Opening Mansion Realm and a cultivator at the early stage of the Demonic Nether Mansion Realm. Wearing it will provide you with an extra layer of protection. Consider it compensation for what happened tonight."

Li Yanzhou was overjoyed and quickly accepted the jade pendant, bowing respectfully: "Thank you for the gift, Elder Chaohua!"

Just then, Elder Ruoxue's gaze fell on Su Qingyao beside Li Yanzhou. A hint of amazement and fondness flashed in her eyes. She gently took Su Qingyao's hand and said softly, "Oh my, this little girl... tsk tsk tsk... She is beautiful, with pure spiritual energy and excellent aptitude. She is a good seedling. This is my jade pendant. If you have any problems in your cultivation in the future, feel free to come to Yunting to find me."

Su Qingyao blushed slightly and quickly bowed to express her gratitude: "Thank you for your kindness, Elder Ruoxue."

Elder Ruoxue smiled and nodded, then shifted her gaze to Shi Dazhuang, who was hiding behind Li Yanzhou. Her gentle eyes suddenly widened, and a hint of doubt and interest flashed in them.

He walked up to Shi Dazhuang, gently placed his hand on Shi Dazhuang's shoulder, examined him for a moment, and said in surprise, "Huh? This child looks like an ordinary person, but he has a strange power hidden in his body. His physique is quite special, which is quite interesting. It's just a pity that he seems unable to cultivate."

Li Yanzhou's heart stirred, and he quickly said, "Elder, Dazhuang is simple-minded and naturally possesses immense strength. Although he cannot cultivate, he is extremely loyal. Please take good care of him, Elder." He wanted to use the Elder's attention to provide Shi Dazhuang with more protection, and also wanted to take the opportunity to understand the origin of the strange power within Shi Dazhuang's body.

Shi Dazhuang was somewhat frightened by Elder Ruoxue's gaze and subconsciously shrank behind Li Yanzhou, revealing only a pair of bewildered eyes.

Old Lady Ruoxue smiled and said gently, "Don't be afraid, child. Your constitution is quite special. I'll have to study it carefully when I have the chance."

Elder Chaohua also came over, pointed to the corpse on the ground, and added, "Everyone, disperse. Leave this matter to us."

Li Yanzhou, along with Su Qingyao and Shi Dazhuang, bowed again, their hearts filled with gratitude, while the disciples in the crowd all showed expressions of envy.

In a corner of the crowd, there stood a person, his figure hidden in the shadows. He was the one who had entered Qiyun Sect with them and was suspected of being a demonic cultivator.

He lowered his eyes, deliberately concealing his aura, except for his eyes, which revealed a sinister and chilling coldness. He glanced at Li Yanzhou and Su Qingyao without making a sound, and then, taking advantage of the noise of the crowd, he turned around silently and slowly retreated into the dark alley, disappearing from sight.

Li Yanzhou caught a glimpse of this scene out of the corner of his eye, and his heart sank. He recognized the person as the strange cultivator who had participated in the assessment with him. It seemed that this person was a demonic cultivator planted in Qiyun Sect by the demonic path. Their every move was probably under the surveillance of the demonic path.
