Evil Immortal!

Ding!

[You have now discovered that the reason the Ten Thousand Evils Cave is trafficking young children on such a large scale is to hold a special blood sacrifice, which seems to be related to some deeper purpose of the Ten Thousand Evils Cave. Continue the investigation and stop this blood sacrifice; this is your next task!]

Ding!

[You have completed the Bone Fang (Second Ring), gaining 6000 experience points!]

[The Bone Fang (Third Ring) is now unlocked!]

Task Rewards: The base reward is 58000 experience points, and the specific rewards will vary depending on the circumstances.

......

Just after Li Lian answered Meng Yuan's question, a series of prompts appeared on the panel, concerning the chain quest [Fang of the Bone Fang] that he had previously triggered.

Furthermore, even the third stage of this mission was activated directly.

Meng Yuan had anticipated this and was not surprised at all.

In fact, this was part of his plan all along.

Today we've come to this stronghold in the Cave of Ten Thousand Evils to complete the second stage of the [Fang of the Bone] quest and unlock the third stage.

However, the rewards for this third stage of the task are quite generous.

58000 experience points—this is just the basic reward. It's easy to imagine that once this mission is successfully completed, there will definitely be many other additional rewards. However, Meng Yuan is well aware that this third-stage mission is not so easy to complete.

Even now, he was able to complete the second stage of the mission only by relying on the power of the Demon Suppression Division.

Otherwise, if Meng Yuan were to act alone, let alone capture Li Lian, it would be highly unlikely that he could even take down everyone inside.

According to Meng Yuan's memory, this third task involves several Golden Core cultivators and martial arts masters from the Myriad Evil Cave, and even has some connection with the two big shots of the Myriad Evil Cave, the Withered Old Man and the Moth Immortal. It is definitely no small matter, and it would be difficult for him to complete it with his current cultivation level.

That's absolutely impossible, no question about it!

Unless they rely on the power of the Demon Suppression Division behind them, there is only a slight chance!

Fortunately, this matter is not urgent and is estimated to begin in a few months, giving him plenty of time to prepare.

"Besides you and the Beggar Demon, are there any other more powerful figures in Linjiang Prefecture?"

Meng Yuan asked one last question.

"this......"

Li Lian hesitated for a moment, then thought that since he had already said so much, a little more wouldn't hurt, so he simply said, "The Black Moth Fairy of the Moth lineage is said to be coming to Linjiang Prefecture in a while."

"The Black Moth Fairy?"

Meng Yuan raised an eyebrow, but his eyes remained calm, seemingly unsurprised, though his expression still became somewhat serious.

He naturally knew this person; not only did he recognize him, but he was also quite familiar with him.

This woman, though called a fairy, could not be an exaggeration to call herself a witch; she was a formidable and troublesome figure in the demonic path.

There's no other reason than that this Black Moth Fairy is the personal disciple of the Flying Moth Immortal, as well as his concubine, and she herself is a Golden Core demon cultivator!

As for the Old Immortal of the Flying Moth, he is one of the two big shots of the Ten Thousand Evil Cave, and also one of the three immortals among the "Three Immortals, Five Elders and Eight Wonders".

The so-called Three Immortals, Five Elders, and Eight Extraordinary Ones refer to some well-known top figures in the cultivation world, each with their own unique identity.

Among them are rogue cultivators, elders of sects, and wandering immortals from unorthodox sects. Each one is a top figure standing tall in the clouds, and each one is at least a Yang God level being.

Why is it that the Wanxie Cave, a mere demonic organization, is able to commit so many evil deeds and atrocities, leaving even the Demon Suppression Division helpless? Or rather, temporarily helpless?

Besides the fact that the Ten Thousand Evil Cave has many disciples who are well hidden, the main reason is the existence of two powerful figures, the Old Immortal of the Flying Moth and the Old Man of the Withered Bones!

As long as the Moth Immortal and the Withered Old Man live, what difference does it make if many other disciples of the Myriad Evil Cave die, or even if they all die?

With just a little time, one can easily recruit a group of subordinates and disciples.

Conversely, if it weren't for the Old Immortal of the Moth and the Old Man of the Withered Bones, what difference would it make if these disciples and their subordinates, including the likes of Li Lian and Qi Mo, had more of them?

Getting back to the main point, the Black Moth Fairy is not only a Golden Core demon cultivator, but also possesses extraordinary strength. Her demonic arts are inherited from the Flying Moth Immortal, making her incredibly bizarre and, in short, a rather troublesome character.

Fortunately, Meng Yuan is not entirely alone now; he has powerful backers.

Putting everything else aside, Gu Zhengyang's cultivation level alone is definitely no less than that of the Black Moth Fairy, and his potential is even greater. Moreover, the Demon Suppression Division also has a Hall Master and a Deputy Hall Master.

With these people holding the line, the sky over Linjiang Prefecture won't fall!

Meng Yuan's mind raced, but he only appeared slightly stunned. He looked at the withered monk beside him and instructed, "Master Kumu, you will personally take people to send him back. Remember, do not let anything go wrong."

As he spoke, he seemed to have thought of something, and handed a jade tablet to the withered monk, instructing him, "Give this to Lord Gu. There's no need to say anything more; he will understand what I mean."

The withered monk clasped his hands together and said, "Yes, sir!"

After saying that, he personally led his men to take Li Lian away.

The monk Kumu knew why Meng Yuan had specifically instructed him. Although Li Lian was not a big shot in the Ten Thousand Evils Cave, he was not a nobody either. He knew a lot of information about the Ten Thousand Evils Cave, which could be considered very important. If someone from the Ten Thousand Evils Cave wanted to kill him to silence him, it was quite possible.

If anything unexpected happens, not only will Gu Zhengyang not let him off the hook, but he himself will never allow it.

As for Meng Yuan asking him to hand over the jade token to Gu Zhengyang, he knew that Meng Yuan had other plans, but he was not one to meddle, so he didn't ask any further questions.

After giving instructions to the withered monk, Meng Yuan scanned the surroundings with his divine sense to make sure nothing was missed. He then looked at Du Caidie beside him and said, "Fairy Du, take the others and let's go."

"Go? Sir, where are we going?"

Du Caidie looked completely bewildered, not quite understanding what Meng Yuan meant.

Meng Yuan laughed. "Of course, it's another stronghold of the Ten Thousand Evil Cave."

His words were calm, but to Du Caidie, they were like a muffled thunderclap, making her eyes widen in shock. "Another base?"

The Cave of Ten Thousand Evils has always operated in secrecy. The Demon Suppression Division had investigated it before, but had not found much.

I thought it was already quite impressive that Meng Yuan was able to find out the location of this stronghold today, but judging from what he said, he seems to know the location of another stronghold of the Ten Thousand Evil Cave!

Meng Yuan didn't explain anything, but simply waved her hand, telling her to take her people and follow.

Seeing this, Du Caidie stopped thinking about it and followed.

Having witnessed Meng Yuan's series of actions firsthand, she understood that Meng Yuan was far superior to her in terms of cultivation level, strength, and ruthlessness.

Even in front of Gu Zhengyang, Meng Yuan was more valued.

She only needs to follow orders and doesn't need to think too much.
