Journey to the West: Deer Power Immortal, Starting from Becoming a Disciple of the Supreme Lord Tais

Without hesitation, Lu Qingxuan flashed and chased after the black-robed old man in the direction he had gone.

The old man in black robes walked slowly, humming an unknown tune, clearly in a good mood.

In his view, going out to find infants was a great job. The Black Snake Demon only wanted infants with the right qualifications, but whether they had the qualifications was up to him.

Take the previous batch of infants for example. There were originally more than twenty that could have been taken to the cave, but he only took more than ten back. The rest all went into his own stomach.

As long as he doesn't say anything, the Black Snake Demon won't know.

Perhaps he can even get a share of the profits once the elixir is refined.

Lu Qingxuan followed far behind, like an invisible shadow, his divine sense firmly locked onto the old man.

They will capture him once they leave the Black Wind Ridge area.

After walking for about fifteen minutes, the two demons finally left the Black Wind Ridge area. Lu Qingxuan no longer hesitated and approached silently.

This old man in black robes was just a minor demon who had cultivated for three or four hundred years. With Lu Qingxuan's cultivation level, it wouldn't be difficult for him to approach silently.

The old man in black robes was dreaming of improving his cultivation when he suddenly felt a cold wind behind him. Before he could turn around, a hand was already pressing down on his head.

"Don't move."

A cold voice rang in my ears.

The old man in black robes trembled as he felt a surge of powerful magic power pour into him from the top of his head, instantly sealing off all the meridians in his body.

"Who?!"

"The one who will take your life," Lu Qingxuan said coldly.

"Hmph, my king is the demon king of Black Wind Ridge. I advise you to release me immediately, or my king will certainly not spare you!"

"So noisy!"

Lu Qingxuan exerted force, and the black-robed old man felt a splitting headache, as if he would be killed if he said another word.

Seeing that the old man in black robes had become obedient, Lu Qingxuan finally spoke: "I will ask, you will answer. If you dare to play any tricks, I will make sure your soul is scattered."

"Yes, yes, yes, this little demon will tell you everything I know..."

"How many lesser demons live in this Black Wind Ridge cave?"

"Reporting to the Immortal, he is about thirty-something."

"About?" Lu Qingxuan frowned slightly, somewhat dissatisfied.

Noticing Lu Qingxuan's change, the black-robed elder quickly explained, "This humble demon wasn't lying. This humble demon was only responsible for refining pills in that cave. I truly don't know the exact number!"

"Hmph, if that's the case, then what kind of pills are being refined in the alchemy furnace?"

"It's...it's the Infant Spirit Pill...Immortal, please see the truth! This was all my king's request, it has nothing to do with this little demon! Please forgive this little demon for the sake of my elderly parents and young children."

Knowing that refining the Infant Spirit Pill was against the natural order, the old man in black robes could only beg for mercy, hoping that Lu Qingxuan would spare his life.

"Are you sure this has nothing to do with you?" Lu Qingxuan sneered.

The old man in black robes carries a lot of karma, yet he dares to say that this matter has nothing to do with him. Does he really think that Lu Qingxuan is easy to fool?

Immediately, Lu Qingxuan unleashed a surge of magical power from his palm, which rushed into the black-robed elder's body, instantly annihilating the elder's soul and spirit.

Looking at the old man's corpse, Lu Qingxuan showed no pity. He raised his hand and collected all of the old man's belongings.

These objects all bear the aura of the old man in black robes; if one wants to disguise oneself, these are essential items.

Lu Qingxuan closed his eyes, his body twisted, and his bones made a slight cracking sound. In just one breath, he transformed into the appearance of the old man in black robes.

"not bad."

Looking at his current appearance, Lu Qingxuan nodded in satisfaction.

This was the first time he had used the transformation technique. Even if it wasn't a perfect resemblance, there was absolutely no fault in their appearance.

He then took out several pills from his sleeve and activated them with his magic, transforming them into the shapes of several infants.

With the blessing of the immortal power within the elixir, these infants possessed unique talents, undoubtedly far surpassing those in the cave.

However, Lu Qingxuan did not go directly to Black Wind Ridge. Instead, he wandered around outside Black Wind Ridge for a few days and only headed towards Black Wind Ridge when he realized that it was about time.

As for the infants in the cave, since the old man in black robes wasn't there, the snake demon wouldn't dare to harm them, no matter how anxious he was.

After all, that was something that concerned whether he could transform into a dragon.

Before returning to his cave, Lu Qingxuan communicated with Hu Li and Yang Li for a moment, asking them to wait for his telepathic message before taking action.

Tiger Power and Sheep Power, the two demons, had no problem with this.

After everything was prepared, Lu Qingxuan carried the infant into the cave.

When the little demon at the cave entrance saw that it was the old man in black robes, he immediately opened the cave door and let Lu Qingxuan in.

The scene inside the cave was exactly the same as before, with flames rising from the huge alchemy furnace. However, compared to the previous two days, the infants were in worse condition.

The black snake spirit remained coiled beside the alchemy furnace, and upon hearing the noise, opened its vertical pupils and glanced at Lu Qingxuan.

"Found it?"

Following the black-robed elder's custom, Lu Qingxuan bowed and placed the infant transformed from the elixir before the black snake spirit. "Your Majesty, we have found three, and their aptitudes are all quite good."

The black snake spirit glanced at them, then nodded in satisfaction: "Not bad, put them together with the previous ones."

"Yes."

Just as Lu Qingxuan was about to approach the infants, the black snake demon suddenly spoke up: "Wait a moment..."

Lu Qingxuan was startled. Had he been discovered?

He immediately began to quietly circulate his internal magical power, ready to strike at any moment.

"Did you notice anything unusual in the surrounding villages during your trip?" the black snake spirit continued.

Lu Qingxuan breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that the snake demon was afraid that what he had done would be discovered.

Lu Qingxuan pretended to think for a moment and said, "Aside from a few villages where some people starved to death, I haven't seen anyone else. It seems they are wary of the king's strength, and even that old man from the local area hasn't shown up."

"Um."

Hearing what Lu Qingxuan said, the black snake spirit nodded in satisfaction and immediately closed her eyes again to continue her cultivation.

Without hesitation, Lu Qingxuan strode to the captured infant, but instead of immediately taking action, he observed everything in the cave.

More than thirty lesser demons were scattered throughout the cave, some guarding the infant, others adding firewood to the alchemy furnace, looking quite like they wanted to eat Tang Sanzang's flesh.

Most of these minor demons are weak and not worth worrying about; the real threat is the black snake demon.

Upon closer inspection, Lu Qingxuan could better sense the demonic power emanating from the black snake demon. Although this snake demon had only cultivated for eight hundred years, its demonic aura was in no way weaker than that of a demon who had cultivated for a thousand years.

Lu Qingxuan sat cross-legged in front of the infants, using his divine sense to probe the situation inside the cave. Only after confirming that the black snake demon was not paying attention to this situation did he begin to switch the infants.

With a flick of his sleeve, several pills fell to the ground and quickly transformed into the shapes of those infants. At the same time, Lu Qingxuan absorbed those infants into his own storage magic treasure.

His storage magic treasure was personally bestowed by the Supreme Dao Ancestor, so it can naturally store living things.

After finishing everything, a divine thought quietly emanated from inside the cave.

A moment later, a deafening roar came from outside the cave.

"You beast! Come out and face your death!"
