At the age of one hundred, I inquired about the Dao, awakening the supreme spiritual root that shatt

Ling Xiu stood in the main hall, watching the elders discuss the Black Fiend Sect; the atmosphere was very heavy.

At this moment, he stepped forward and continued:

"I once encountered the remnant soul of the Crimson Sky Venerable, who was filled with demonic energy, in a secret realm. I obtained an Eternal Universe Ring from the remnant soul. The Nine Nether Demon Ancestor Fire was obtained from that Universe Ring."

I refined it. When I used the Nine Nether Demon Ancestor Fire to burn the Yin Demon Ancestor before, he actually recognized this demonic fire.

Now I suspect that the Crimson Sky Venerable's demonic soul originated from the Black Fiend Sect. Analyze this: could the Black Fiend Sect still possess a Nascent Soul Venerable-level expert?

After Ling Xiu finished speaking, the other elders were moved.

Especially Feng Qingyang, the sword immortal, became extremely solemn. He pondered for a moment and slowly said, "There shouldn't be any. If they really had a Nascent Soul Realm expert, they should have gone to the Nine Heavens Divine Kingdom, that Central Immortal Realm outside the heavens, long ago. They couldn't possibly be hiding in the Black Fiend Sect."

Moreover, once a Nascent Soul Realm expert makes a move, none of the forces in our Eastern Wilderness Immortal Domain will be able to stop the Black Fiend Sect. These great immortal sects would probably have been wiped out long ago.

Feng Qingyang's analysis made the other elders nod in agreement.

After all, they were all ancient monsters who had lived for thousands of years, and their cultivation was extremely powerful. They naturally understood the experts in the Nascent Soul Realm.

The Spirit Sea Realm has ten levels, and the difference between each minor level is enormous.

Ling Xiu is currently in the middle stage, roughly at the fifth level of the Spirit Sea Realm. Only when he reaches the sixth level of the Spirit Sea Realm can he be considered to have touched the threshold of the late stage.

It is said that after a Nascent Soul Realm expert cultivates to the point of becoming a Primordial Spirit, they can manipulate the power of the laws of heaven and earth. The power they wield with every move is capable of destroying the world, and killing a Spirit Sea Realm cultivator is as easy as cutting melons and vegetables.

It's impossible for the Black Fiend Sect to have a Nascent Soul Realm expert. If they did, no one in the Eastern Wilderness Immortal Domain could stop their growth. Even if all the Spirit Sea Realm cultivators joined forces, they would still be no match for a Nascent Soul Realm Venerable.

"I see!"

Ling Xiu thought to himself.

The difference was truly enormous, meaning that the Black Fiend Sect had no experts at the Nascent Soul stage, which gave him a slight sense of relief.

No matter how terrifying that Crimson Sky Venerable was, even if he was at the Nascent Soul stage in the ancient times, now he only has a remnant soul left, so he is no longer a threat. Moreover, it is not something that can be done overnight for him to recover to the Nascent Soul stage; it will take at least several hundred years.

By then, Ling Xiu will surely have reached the Nascent Soul Realm, so there's no need to fear him at all.

However, at present, the leader of the Black Fiend Sect is also a powerful expert at the Great Perfection of the Spirit Sea Realm, whose strength is comparable to that of the Sword Immortal Ancestor Feng Qingyang. It is still very difficult to deal with him.

Feng Qingyang looked at Ling Xiu and said very solemnly, "Fellow Daoist Li, you have now killed three major demonic cultivators of the Black Fiend Sect, and they are probably keeping a close eye on you now."

They will definitely avenge this grudge. The Black Fiend Cult Leader is extremely powerful, so you must be careful.

"It's best to stay in the sect when there's nothing to do. Don't leave easily. At least with a few of us in the sect, he won't dare to barge in."

Ling Xiu nodded, his expression becoming slightly more serious: "I've remembered your instructions, senior, and I'll pay attention."

Sword Immortal Feng Qingyang then said to the elders, "There is one more important matter I must mention. A few hours ago, Elder Dongfang Langya of the Qingyun Sect was murdered and has perished completely."

Upon hearing this, Patriarch Haoxuan's eyes widened in disbelief: "Qingyang, are you serious? Dongfang Langya is really dead?"

"No way! Senior Dongfang Langya was a powerful cultivator in the late stage of the Spirit Sea Realm. How could he have suddenly perished? Who has the strength to kill him?"

Shu Qingyu and Gu Qingmeng were also shocked, their faces filled with horror, while Ancestor Zimo was even more incredulous.

This news is quite explosive and will likely shake the entire Eastern Wilderness Immortal Realm.

Sword Immortal Feng Qingyang looked at them with a very heavy expression: "This matter has been confirmed. Dongfang Langya died tragically not long after leaving our Xuan Yang Sect."

His life-soul stone went dark and then shattered completely. Only the leader of the Black Fiend Cult possessed such power; it was unexpected that they acted so quickly.

They assassinated Fellow Daoist Dongfang Langya. This was an act of retaliation for the threat posed to them by the Qingyun Sect, and also to demonstrate their strength. It seems they intend to officially break ties with our righteous immortal sects.

As demonic cultivators, they are truly despicable.

Feng Qingyang said these were just his guesses. Although there was no concrete evidence, the Black Fiend Sect was the most likely suspect.

After all, the leader of the Black Fiend Sect had so many tricks up his sleeve that only he had the opportunity to kill Dongfang Langya by sneak attack.

Even if you count all the top experts in the Eastern Wilderness Immortal Realm, there is only the leader of the Black Fiend Sect.

Other righteous immortal sects or other demonic sects would not attack Dongfang Langya.

Everyone nodded in agreement, all pointing their fingers at the Black Fiend Sect. The atmosphere became incredibly heavy, as if a heavy boulder was pressing down on everyone's head.

This massive Black Fiend Cult is indeed too rampant. They are ruthless and decisive in their actions, even killing a powerful cultivator in the late stage of the Spirit Sea Realm. Their arrogance is truly unexpected and beyond their imagination.

Ling Xiu lowered his head slightly, pretending to be thinking about something else, but in reality, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as no one suspects Dongfang Langya, he will not be targeted by the public after his death.

Furthermore, Feng Qingyang's analysis is quite reasonable, and linking the Black Fiend Sect with Dongfang Langya is indeed plausible.

The atmosphere in the main hall was very oppressive, but at this moment, Sect Leader Nangong Xun suddenly rushed into the hall, looking flustered and somewhat anxious.

He directly announced some explosive news.

"Elders and Ancestors, terrible news! I just received a message that the Heavenly Demon Sect has been wiped out. All its members have been slaughtered and utterly exterminated!"

Such explosive news immediately caused all the elders' expressions to change drastically.

"What did you say!" Ancestor Haoxuan's emotions became extremely out of control. "Although the Heavenly Demon Sect is a demonic sect, it has a fairly good reputation in the Eastern Wilderness, and it also has Ancestor Hongmeng in charge."

"Ancestor Hongmeng was a powerful cultivator in the late stage of the Spirit Sea Realm, and his sect's influence was no weaker than our Xuan Yang Sect, yet he was slaughtered!"

Sect Leader Nangong Xun said angrily, "The message didn't provide any specific details; it only said that the Heavenly Demon Sect was almost completely slaughtered, with rivers of blood flowing—a truly horrific sight!"

Ling Xiu suddenly remembered something, and his expression became very emotional: "Elders, I remember now. The Black Fiend Cult demon cultivator who managed to escape yesterday was an elder from the Heavenly Demon Cult named Li Juehen."

Later, after he betrayed the sect, he became an elder of the Black Fiend Cult, which I found strange before.

Looking back now, the destruction of the Heavenly Demon Sect must be related to this person.

This guy, acting as an elder of the Heavenly Demon Sect, might have given the Black Fiend Sect an opportunity to exploit, which is why they were breached so quickly.

The faction was wiped out overnight; that was incredibly fast.

Feng Qingyang was immediately filled with rage, his eyes becoming extremely murderous, his sharp glint flashing: "Xiu Yuan, what you say must be true! This person betrayed the Heavenly Demon Sect, it seems they had planned this all along."

They first destroyed my Xuan Yang Sect, deliberately using those demons to lure me and Zi Mo away, and then annihilated us, but things didn't go as planned.

The next step is to destroy the Heavenly Demon Cult.

This Li Juehen is so ruthless and cunning, he deserves to die!

The Black Fiend Sect is even more audacious, completely disregarding our righteous immortal sects of the Eastern Wilderness.

He clenched his fists, a surge of anger almost bursting from his body.

He then quickly made a judgment and deployment: "Li Xiuyuan, Zimo, Haoxuan, you three junior brothers will stay in the sect and must protect the sect well."

I immediately set off with Junior Brother Shu Qingyu and Junior Sister Gu Qingmeng to investigate the situation at the Heavenly Demon Sect. This matter is of utmost importance!

"Senior brother, we will not fail in our mission. You can leave in peace!"

"Take care, senior!"

Ling Xiu and the two elders, Hao Xuan and Zi Mo, all accepted the order.
