Starting with the Corpse-Eating Worm, he worked his way up to become the Left-Winged Immortal Lord.

Upon entering the battle.

The gap in the Hidden Yin Tortoise Shell Formation was then closed.

Looking around, the Fufeng Forest Cemetery, no longer shrouded in white mist, revealed hundreds and thousands of graves that had been dug up, with wooden coffins scattered all over the ground.

If anyone else had come and witnessed this scene, they would have been terrified, but he only felt that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Afterwards, even if there were hundreds fewer corpses, Deng Hui would take the blame for him.

However, Gu Qing did not immediately devour the ordinary corpses. Instead, he quickly rode the Shadowless Corpse-Eating Insects straight towards the corpses of the miscellaneous sects.

Perhaps because they had just died, their spiritual energy was only just beginning to dissipate, allowing Gu Qing to clearly sense their cultivation levels. Thirteen were at the first level of Qi Refining, six at the second level, and three at the third level.

A total of twenty-two people!

If all of this were refined, how much corpse energy would be obtained?

2000?

3000?

"I wonder how much more the Shadowless Corpse-Eating Worm can devour." With excitement, Gu Qing controlled the Corpse-Eating Worm to frantically devour the cultivator's corpse.

Let's start with the third level of Qi Refining.

One body after another.

Next comes the second level of Qi Refining.

The corpse-eating worms still devoured food very quickly.

Even after it had completely devoured the corpses of the six cultivators at the second level of Qi Refining, its devouring speed remained unchanged.

"Well done!"

Gu Qing sighed in admiration.

He now desperately hopes that the corpse-eating worm's stomach is a bottomless pit!

pity.

Backfired.

After devouring the corpses of thirteen Qi Refining Level 1 cultivators, the corpse-eating worms finally slowed down their eating speed.

Fortunately, it's still edible.

Gu Qing immediately shifted his target to an ordinary corpse.

One body after another.

"It feels so good to eat like this without worrying about being caught!" Gu Qing exclaimed excitedly.

finally.

Before dawn.

The corpse-eating worms devoured another fifty-six ordinary corpses.

At this point, the corpse-eating worms could no longer swallow any more food.

……

at the same time.

After all the miscellaneous and unorthodox sects within Wufeng Temple had been dealt with, Ding Xian, Li Fu, and others also rushed to the outside of Fufeng Forest.

Hundreds of Qi Refining cultivators surrounded the entire Fufeng Forest, making it impossible to move.

Under Lu Xingzhi's command, everyone launched a strong attack for another two or three hours until dawn.

As dawn broke, the power of the Yin Array diminished significantly, and after a night of turmoil, the array's patterns grew increasingly dim.

obviously.

The Hidden Yin Tortoise Shell Formation is on the verge of collapse.

"Everyone, get ready!"

Lu Xingzhi immediately gave the order.

Master Qiuyue and the others immediately stood ready, prepared to kill everyone in the formation.

however.

When the array patterns completely dimmed and the Yin Array gradually lost its effectiveness, the burial ground in Fufeng Forest, illuminated by the morning light, was completely empty. Only dug graves and a dazzling array of decaying coffin lids remained.

There were no monks.

There are no living people.

There was no movement at all.

"What happened?"

Master Qiuyue's expression changed.

Lu Xingzhi immediately flew to the sky above Fufeng Forest, his senses constantly sweeping over the burial ground, not even missing a single leaf.

however.

My senses swept over and over again, but I found nothing.

If it weren't for the blood residue in the burial site, Lu Xingzhi would have even doubted whether any cultivators had ever existed within the Hidden Yin Tortoise Shell Formation.

"Why is no one here?"

Lu Xingzhi looked incredulous.

"Fellow Daoist Lu, look at these graves. They've all been dug up, and some of the corpses are missing." Daoist Qiuyue found Lu Xingzhi and pointed down at the empty graves. "Could it be that Deng Hui's target really was those corpses?"

"They went to great lengths, even wasting a top-tier second-order Yin-Yang Tortoise Shell Formation, so there must be something on the corpse... most likely some forbidden item that Deng Hui brought out when he defected from Xuanqing Academy."

Lu Xingzhi quickly analyzed the situation.

The more he analyzed, the more serious his expression became.

Since the body has been stolen and the person has disappeared, it is clear that Deng Hui has found what he wanted.

"A forbidden item... then we have no choice but to report it to Xuanqing Academy immediately." As the manager of the Talisman Hall, she was more concerned about the items brought out by Xuanqing Academy than the missing corpse.

Lu Xingzhi nodded. "That's the only way... If I had known this would happen, I should have been more determined. That guy was a Taoist boy who used soul-capturing techniques at the burial site, and he also killed Li Shoutian, who was guarding the mortuary. There must be something strange about the corpse."

That's all.

Lu Xingzhi sighed helplessly.

He had considered it before and even collaborated with Chen Ye to send people to guard the area.

After checking several times without finding anything amiss, he actually lowered his guard.

Master Qiuyue sighed as well, then turned and headed toward Qishan. "I'll go and draft a search warrant right away."

"Uh-huh."

Lu Xingzhi nodded, and then fell into the burial ground of Fufeng Forest.

Looking around at the dug-up graves, his heart felt heavier and more distressed than ever before.

This incident occurred.

If Xuanqing Academy wants to hold someone accountable.

As the manager of the pharmacy, he is largely to blame.

Thinking of this, Lu Xingzhi's expression suddenly hardened.

"You won't have it easy either... Ding Xian!"

Ding Xian rushed over.

"Master, what is it?"

Lu Xingzhi hurriedly said, "Draft an arrest warrant in the name of Wufeng Temple and have the county government distribute it as quickly as possible, covering all villages and towns in the county, so that everyone is aware of it."

The content is about Deng Hui, a traitor from Xuanqing Temple, who stole nearly a hundred corpses from Wufeng Temple and practiced the secret techniques he brought from Xuanqing Temple.

A bounty of 100 catties of Five Elements Divine Sand!

"this……"

Ding Xian was stunned by these words.

If this matter were made public, what would become of us?

"Master, isn't one hundred catties of Five Elements Divine Sand a bit...?"

He wanted to say too much.

After all, a piece of first-tier Yin Qi only costs two jin of Five Elements Divine Sand.

Even so, very few people can afford it, even among those who specialize in miscellaneous or unorthodox methods.

Lu Xingzhi frowned and interrupted, "Too little, is it? Then increase it to five hundred catties, add as much as you can, anyway, I wasn't planning on giving it to you."

"Understood!"

Ding Xian suddenly realized what was happening and immediately headed straight for the pharmacy.

……

It is located about 100 miles outside the county seat of Changping County.

In Jinshi Town.

After fleeing all the way to Jinshi Town, Deng Hui finally stopped and found a restaurant to rest.

At the same time, he came here to wait for the people of the Heavenly Principle Sect.

The Heavenly Principle Sect deserves much credit for luring Chen Ye and his group into the Lianwu Mountains and sealing off Fufeng Forest right under the noses of the Wufeng Temple cultivators.

Now that he had confirmed that the True Method of Foundation Building for Insects Without Return was in the hands of the people of Wufeng Temple, he began to investigate each and every one of them in detail.

He can't do it alone.

Therefore, we still need to rely on the Tianli Sect.

but.

Just after two jars of wine were finished, a middle-aged man in a blue robe entered the inn. He was unkempt, carrying a wine jug, and walked with a swaying gait.

As soon as he entered the inn, he shouted, "Waiter, waiter, do you still have any Xinghua Village Old Wine?"

"Sir, please have a seat inside. We have plenty of room!"

The waiter eagerly stepped forward and led the person inside.

But the middle-aged man in the blue robe suddenly spun around and wobbled as he fell towards Deng Hui's table.

"Sorry, I've had too much to drink..."

After collapsing onto the table, the middle-aged man in the blue robe apologized.

Deng Hui's brows furrowed slightly with displeasure, but thinking that he couldn't afford to cause any trouble at this moment, he could only suppress his anger.

"It's alright."

The waiter quickly stepped forward to help him up, but was pushed away by the middle-aged man in the blue robe.

After shaking off the waiter, the man in the blue robe plopped down opposite Deng Hui and asked with a smile, "You're quite magnanimous, sir... but you've turned my Wufeng Temple upside down, and you just want to leave? Isn't that a bit much?"
