The entire sect is obsessed with love, but I'm the only one who's truly insane.

After Lin Du raised this question, Wei Zhi, the third-ranked disciple of the Chongxiao Ranking and a Tantric Buddhist disciple of Yunmolu, whose reputation was notorious but whose strength was still considered to be at the pinnacle by outsiders, was in an incomprehensible situation for the first time.

He carefully reviewed Lin Du's life story. Lin Du was definitely not someone without the Three Poisons. Not only did she have them, but she probably had them more deeply than many others. It couldn't be that she was just vomiting from overeating the Three Poisons Seal.

Unable to understand, he decided to set the matter aside. "Now that your guess is confirmed—that Demon Lord Qianyu is within the sect—what do you plan to do?"

This is a good question.

Lin Du gave a kind smile. "Of course, we should use love to influence him."

Wei Zhi felt that even a three-year-old wouldn't believe that statement.

Moreover, it was Lin Du who said this, which even an unintelligent turtle wouldn't believe.

But he reminded her, "The Demon Lord is not easy to deal with. Let me observe him for a few more days and figure out his secrets before we talk about it."

Although Yan Ye personally crushed the Demon Lord into the ground hundreds of years ago, the way demons improve their strength is not the same as the righteous path; they need both comprehension and hard work.

For a demon to become powerful, it only needs to devour.

If one happens to have some great talent and opportunity, then after cultivating a superior demonic technique, one's cultivation might advance by leaps and bounds.

Wei Zhi may not say he understands Lin Du, but one thing is certain: Lin Du has a lot of bad intentions. Can she be reformed with love? Does she even have love?

Lin Du didn't chop Qian Yu up on the cutting board simply because he wasn't strong enough yet.

"Qian Yu's appearance at the Supreme Sect proves one thing: the Demon Realm will not act recklessly before the Demon Lord returns. The previous incursions were just a small stepping stone for his smooth entry into the sect."

Lin Du wanted to trap Qian Yu for a period of time, the longer the better.

The top three on the Chongxiao Ranking are all within the sect and haven't gone into seclusion yet, so it's even safer.

"I want to take advantage of Qianyu's absence to capture Wenfu and, incidentally, wipe out the Demon Realm," Lin Du said, revealing only half the truth.

There must be someone behind the evil forces. Now that Qianyu is gone, Wenfu is no longer under the suppression of his superiors, and he will surely make some big moves.

Lin Du still hopes to minimize the harm caused by the Daoist method of "reducing excess to compensate for deficiency".

As for the rest, Lin Du thought that Ni Jinxuan should be allowed to grow further.

He's still a bit too cunning.

Lin Du casually asked, "In the past, Buddha cut off his own flesh to feed an eagle. Doesn't the Buddha's disciple intend to sacrifice himself to feed a demon?"

Wei Zhi chuckled. "Don't even think about messing with me. I'm currently plagued by backlash and can only be a gossipy spectator."

"I'm so weak that if you face me, the odds are about 30/70, or even 50/50 if you really go all out and are fully prepared."

Lin Du turned and left; it would be a miracle if she believed Wei Zhi's words.

Before he could even leave the peach grove, Hou Cang dragged him away to practice his skills.

Hou Cang still had an icy expression. "Junior Sister, Master told me to take you to practice if I have nothing else to do."

Lin Du reminded him, "Is it possible—I mean, maybe—that your senior uncle means you shouldn't keep clinging to her?"

Hou Cang began to form hand seals and spoke methodically, "The greatest weakness of a demon lies in its demonic embryo."

"The demonic fetus is born from different parts, but this technique can open the third eye to observe the demonic fetus, and then concentrate power to strike it down in one blow."

Lin Du felt that the resentment on this senior brother was so strong that Qian Yu could absorb it all.

A new use for Qianyu has been found; at least if kept within the clan, it can absorb a lot of the three poisons.

The Supreme Sect's newest air purifier has arrived!

"Seriously." Hou Cang tapped the peach tree trunk beside Lin Du with his sword sheath. "They all say you're incredibly smart, the best in the world. You can't possibly not learn it in one go, can you?"

Lin Du chuckled, "I got it!"

Hou Cang watched as she raised her hands in front of her and began to form hand seals, his eyes unwavering. "Hmm, that's right, but the power isn't enough, the force isn't right, let's try again."

Lin Du never expected that she would be controlled by Hou Cang one day. She returned to the library exhausted, all her spiritual energy drained.

Chu Guanmeng had already retreated into her small world when she started practicing, but she only crawled out now. "Actually, I have an idea."

Lin Du was browsing through ancient books when he heard this and nodded, signaling it to continue.

Chu Guanmeng was not happy about it and plopped down on the tattered ancient book. "Listen to me first."

Lin Du simply gestured with his eyes that she was listening.

"You outsiders have so many fancy tricks up your sleeves. I didn't see anything wrong with that number one filth you mentioned, but I do have a vague recollection of the Three Poison Seals that the monk mentioned today. Perhaps it's related to the red rope."

"The red rope shouldn't have the function of warding off evil spirits, but he just happened to have the Three Poisons Seal planted on his body. I want to check whether the Three Poisons Seal he mentioned is the same as the one I'm thinking of."

Lin Du picked up the rabbit and turned to face the ancient book together. "What do you think I'm looking at?"

She pointed to that page, and when the rabbit said impatiently that it couldn't read, she had no choice but to read it aloud to it, "This Three Poisons Mantra Seal is not actually exclusive to Buddhism; it was also recorded in ancient times."

"Legend has it that a powerful being who ascended to immortality planted the Three Poisons Seal on himself in order to achieve enlightenment through his body. He absorbed the three poisons that were produced in his body every day, and finally used a secret method to eliminate the evil thoughts of the three poisons that were about to take shape, thus successfully ascending to immortality."

"It was just that Wei Zhi wrapped his own mark in it and placed it inside the Demon Lord's body, using it as a tracking curse."

Lin Du paused for a moment, then asked, "So, is it what you think?"

The rabbit nodded. "Yes, Yin Huaitian told me that even if one becomes an immortal, one will inevitably continue to generate the three poisons. Therefore, in order to go further, some people in the Upper Realm have used this method, which resulted in very bad consequences."

"So start your guessing." Lin Du rubbed its head.

"Yin Huaitian originally wanted to refine a magical artifact that could find the immortals who had placed the Three Poisons Seal on them. According to her, the Three Poisons Seal would cause great disaster."

"So, that dirty thing isn't reacting to you, but rather it's reacting to the red rope because of the Three Poisons Seal."

Rabbit couldn't help but shake her head as she said this, "But she wasn't exactly a good talent for weapon crafting. She originally thought that as long as the materials were tempered by the divine essence, they would surely be able to see through all evil thoughts. Who knew that the tempering of the divine essence was not so easy to control? The immortal weapon had its own ideas, which can be considered a failed work of Yin Huaitian, going against her original intention."

"So what exactly is this rope for? Yin Huaitian said you can tell me?"

Lin Du unconsciously pinched its ears.

The rabbit snatched its own ear and left a fresh tooth mark on Lin Du's hand. "Let's talk this out, don't get physical."

Lin Du innocently spread his hands.

"This rope, although it cannot identify people with the Three Poisons Mark in their bodies, can, by some strange coincidence, identify people's seven emotions. In the eyes of you righteous people, if the seven emotions are too strong, they will become a thick fog that entangles and traps you."

"So, after you established a connection with the immortal artifact, you can see the mist formed by the seven emotions of people. For powerful people, they can see the seven emotions of everyone, but for you, a weak guy like you, you can only see the seven emotions of people who are weaker than you."

The rabbit stretched out its paw and patted Lin Du's forehead. "Try using the method left by Yin Huaitian to reconnect with the red rope. In the illusion before, it was because of my talent and the connection left by Yin Huaitian that I was able to activate the red rope. The reason you could see for a while afterward was because you just received Yin Huaitian's message."

"However, immortal artifacts have their own ideas, and I don't know how you will use them. Just like Yin Huaitian didn't know that people with the Three Poison Seals actually reacted when they came into contact with the Red String Master. So it seems that she did not completely fail."

Lin Du caught the rabbit's paws on the spot, saying, "Let's talk this out, don't get physical."
