I'm in the Demonic Sect, but my cultivation techniques are being used for palace intrigue!

That cultivator at the first level of Qi Refining is dead!

He died from the blood sword in the hands of a Qi Refining Level 2 cultivator!

"Hmph! Now that you've seen the magical artifact that great cultivator gave me, how could I spare your life and give you the chance to spread rumors?"

The cultivator at the second level of Qi Refining sneered inwardly, and then, with a thought, he put the corpse of the cultivator on the ground into his ring.

Then, with a "hehe" laugh, he quickly moved away from the area, explaining softly as if speaking to someone:

"Master, I don't have a storage bag right now, so I can't get rid of this corpse. You'll have to make do with it for now!"

"What? Using corpse powder? That stuff is so expensive! You really don't know the value of money..."

"This corpse is too weak and worthless? No matter what, it's still a corpse that has cultivated Qi. How can it be as worthless as you say, Master?"

…………

Meanwhile, on the other side, Zhu Jingguang, who was walking according to the map in his hand, suddenly stopped in his tracks.

"Huh? Why are there so many more messages on the virtual panel all of a sudden?"

"I can't believe I didn't even notice!"

"Wait... what are they saying?"

"Is there something wrong with me?"

"What... is going on?"

…………

At this moment, recalling what had happened earlier, Zhu Jingguang inexplicably broke out in a cold sweat!

"Wait... what was I just doing?"

"That's a magical artifact... How could I give it to someone just because they pointed me in the right direction?"

"Holy crap! Something's wrong! Something's wrong! Something's wrong! That guy just now... something's 120% weird!"

…………

Zhu Jingguang, finally realizing that he had made a mistake, forcibly suppressed the urge to throw away the map in his hand.

"No, at this moment, before I'm certain the other party has noticed I've regained consciousness, I absolutely cannot act rashly!"

"I'll just pretend... I'm still in that same dazed, confused state, and continue according to my original plan!"

"If my reckless actions, deviating from their intended path, cause them to doubt my regaining consciousness, it will only bring unnecessary trouble!"

  

"As for whether there's anything wrong with the map he gave me... given his ability to directly influence my consciousness, if he truly intends to harm me, it seems I have no way to resist!"

"If that's the case... then so be it!"

…………

With this thought in mind, Zhu Jingguang immediately followed the route on the map and continued walking towards the "destination".

As Zhu Jingguang continued to follow the route on the map towards the "destination," the virtual panel in front of him suddenly became lively again.

[Qi-inducing incantation: "What's going on? Has the master not recovered?"]

[The Yin-Yang Cycle and the Daily Yang-Gathering Scripture: "This shouldn't be! I clearly felt just now that Master should have broken free from some inexplicable influence, but why...?"]

[Heavenly Demon Joyful Seal: "Heh... Someone usually acts all high and mighty, I thought he was really capable, but... is that all? I don't think he's anything special!"]

[Heart-Eating Control Technique: "I think this lady is quite perceptive; the master should have already broken free of control!"]

[Heavenly Demon Joyful Seal: "Oh ho... so you're already choosing sides?"]

[Heavenly Demon Joyful Seal: "Anyway, no matter what outrageous things she says, you'll all choose to support her, right?"]

[Heavenly Demon Joyful Seal: "Just for the sake of supporting... is that it?"]

[Heavenly Demon Joyful Seal: "I just don't understand. How could you so easily betray your conscience and 'believe' her claim of 'Yin-Yang Reversal and Daily Yang Cultivation'?"]

[Heavenly Demon Joyful Seal: "I ask you, if the master has truly broken free of control, then why is he still following the map that person gave him? Is he courting death?"]

[Qi-guiding mantra: "Alright! Alright! Let's all keep quiet!"]

[Qi-inducing incantation: "I know you are all worried about Master and hope that he will get better and better... In that case, we should unite even more and work hard to help Master!"]

[Explosive Bloodlust: "Wait a minute..."]

[Qi-Gathering Technique: "What are we waiting for? Given Master's current condition, we need to find a solution as soon as possible..."]

[The Yin-Yang Cycle: Daily Yang Meridian: "No! Big sister, you really need to wait a bit!"]

[The Yin-Yang Reversal Daily Yang-Gathering Scripture: "Haven't you noticed, elder sister, that there's an extra cultivation technique among us?"]

…………

When the cultivators finally realized what had happened in their space, the argument information that was refreshing on the virtual panel instantly stopped.

Then, after an unknown amount of time...

[Heavenly Demon Joyful Seal: "Holy crap! Wait... what's going on? Who are you? How did you get in here?"]

[The Yin-Yang Reversal Daily Yang-Gathering Scripture: "Everyone, be careful. You may not feel it, but the 'essence' of this technique is extraordinary!"]

[Exploding Bloodlust: "It's ignited! It's ignited! This is the kind of battle I've been searching for, I..."]

[Heart-Corroding Control Technique: "Violent Woman, can you please be quiet for a second?"]

[Exploding Bloodlust: "Yes, my Queen!"]

Other techniques: "???"

[Other techniques: "No... 'Blood Bursting Technique,' what's wrong with you? Say something!"]

[Explosive Blood Burning Power: "..."]

[Other techniques: "You're new here, what exactly did you do to 'Blood Burning Technique'?"]

[Heart-Eating Control Technique: "I didn't do anything... I just thought she was too noisy, so I asked her to be quiet for a bit!"]

The other cultivation techniques immediately glared at this newly entered technique as if facing a formidable enemy!

…………

At the same time, Zhu Jingguang, who also noticed the new cultivation technique on the virtual panel, became even more determined to continue pretending that he was still being influenced by some unknown entity...

The reason why Zhu Jingguang did not contact the cultivation techniques in the space after regaining his senses was because he saw that a cultivation technique had inexplicably appeared in the space!

Before figuring out what kind of intentions this cultivation technique had towards him, Zhu Jingguang did not intend to reveal that he had regained his senses.

Although the technique called "Heart-Eating and Soul-Controlling Technique" stated on the virtual panel that he had broken free of control, Zhu Jingguang decided to remain calm and observe the situation before taking any further action, just in case the technique was bluffing him.
