Chapter 432: Chapter 224: Blood Demon Sect Branch and Selling Loot at Celestial Demon Sea

”Who wouldn’t agree?”

Feng Jue couldn’t help but marvel and feel curious, yet even after inquiring the soul within, he didn’t receive a credible reason.

After contemplating for a moment, Wen Jiu dismissed Feng Jue’s idea, ”This Yinhe Sect seems a bit sinister, it’s better to not get involved with them, instead sell these items at the Independent Practitioner Immortal City in Celestial Demon Sea.”

”That works too, I leave it to you, Brother Han,” Feng Jue said no more, immediately listing some Tier Two Spirit Medicines needed for cultivating a poisonous body. However, after Wen Jiu searched with his Divine Sense, none of the spiritual medicines Feng Jue requested were found.

It was at this moment, while examining each Tier Two Spirit Medicine closely, Wen Jiu discovered that each one was rather unique. This was something Wen Jiu had never noticed before, being preoccupied with tallying other spoils.

Out of nine hundred items, three hundred were Tier Two Lower Grade Yin Evil Spirit Medicines, while the other six hundred were regular Tier Two Spirit Medicines.

Most of these Spirit Medicines were based on Celestial Heart Water, a specialty from the Divine Fall Mountain Range, formed within the stone hearts in the mountain peaks by absorbing special heavenly and earthly breaths. The medicinal property is mild, with simple effects, often used by Alchemy Masters to refine Body Refining auxiliary Elixir Pills, or directly for higher-level Body Cultivators in their cultivating process.

At first glance, there seemed to be no issue, and looking broadly across the Divine Fall Mountain Range, no one ever mentioned any problems.

But when Wen Jiu examined closely, he felt like he had seen it somewhere before. After browsing through the memories of the Fake Pill Demon Soul, he finally understood where he had encountered it. The Blood Demon Sect used Celestial Heart Water in nurturing monsters and cultivating the True Demon Body.

”Wait a minute, why does this Yinhe Sect’s operational style resemble a branch of the Blood Demon Sect?”

Wen Jiu immediately checked the Fake Pill Demon Soul’s memories carefully, finding information about a branch of the Blood Demon Sect concerning the Bright Sect.

More than 3,700 years ago, during the zenith of the Blood Demon Sect, this branch defected from the Blood Demon Sect and vanished from the Divine Fall Mountain Range. Consequently, the Blood Demon Sect was left with just three major streams of Demonic Qi, and the fourth major stream controlled by this Bright Sect branch was completely severed, with no one seen since the fall of the Blood Demon Sect.

The Fake Pill Demon Soul had heard of, and even encountered members of the Bright Sect in the Lifeless Abyss beneath the Hundred Floating Domains.

To outsiders, their conduct seemed honorable and reputable, known for their benevolence and charitable nature, with widespread acclaim in the Hundred Floating Domains. Although not a Golden Core Level Influence, the sect had numerous Golden Core Cultivators.

The Hundred Floating Domains and Lifeless Abyss referred to them as living Bodhisattvas with demon bodies but human hearts, yet any significant Golden Core Influence aimed to eradicate them completely. The reason remained unknown, as those Golden Core Major Influences disclosed nothing, but in the perspective of the Fake Pill Demon Soul, a significant part of it related to faith.

The Bright Sect spread kindness and gained faith, with lower-level cultivators expressing utmost respect and love for them, to the extent of erecting monuments and statues in their honor. The sect members seemed to draw strength from this faith and admiration, with followers becoming increasingly devoted.

Willing even to risk their lives.

”This seems somewhat cult-like,” observed Wen Jiu upon examining the memories of the Demon Soul, becoming more apprehensive of this so-called Yinhe Sect, deciding to stay as far away from them as possible due to their possible mind-controlling abilities, akin to Postnatal Ghost Technique Divine Techniques of the Five Ghosts, but their method appeared more evil since it could derive power from controlling human minds.

After sorting out his thoughts, Wen Jiu decided to head to the Heterodox Loose Cultivator Immortal City, based on the Yin Yang Cultivator’s memory, as it was the closest to Divine Fall Mountain Range. Spending more time at the distance was preferable to engaging with the Yinhe Sect.

...

After some casual conversation, Wen Jiu left Lengxi Mountain.

For half a month, Wen Jiu refrained from using the East Spring Undying Bone to fence the goods, instead quietly engaging in Corpse Nourishing and Ghost Cultivation, as if nothing had occurred.

During this time, Chen Li informed him that Daoist Wei was conducting a frantic inspection of Ghost Cultivators in Wind and Cloud Immortal City and Little Demon Realm, driven by a substantial bounty. Consequently, heterodox evil cultivators in Little Demon Realm also joined in the search for Ghost Cultivators.

Gradually, both Little Demon Realm and Wind and Cloud Immortal City cultivators became aware of the battle on that day.

The death of so many Foundation Establishment Cultivators at once caused a sensation in the Central Shen Yun Mountain Range, prompting widespread astonishment. As more details of the battle emerged, many took interest upon learning of a powerful Ghost Cultivator in the Divine Fall Mountain Range.

Whether in the Independent Practitioner Market or among family influences, people speculated daily about this individual’s true identity. However, most believed this person was under Daoist Wei’s command. Why else would the Ghost Cultivator’s only interventions benefit Daoist Wei?

The already-furious Daoist Wei, who had issued the bounty, became even angrier upon hearing the rumor, vowing not to rest until the individual was dead. It was said he became so enraged that he spat blood and took several days to recover.

Meanwhile, Wen Jiu quietly had the East Spring Undying Bone leave the Far South, heading toward the Celestial Demon Sea.

By traveling twenty thousand miles past the Spirit-Extinguishing Corpse Qi from the Far South, one could reach the Celestial Demon Sea, then crossing the dangerous areas of the Outer Sea of Celestial Demon and Divine Fall Mountain Range would finally lead to the Celestial Demon Outer Sea.

From there, traveling southwest around ten thousand miles would reach the largest Heterodox Loose Cultivator Immortal City in the Celestial Demon Outer Sea.

Controlling the East Spring Undying Bone all the way, he traversed the Outer Sea without significant danger, tactfully avoiding all Foundation Establishment Cultivators, and if encountering Late Stage of Foundation Establishment from Three Life Gates, he would immediately perform a Blood Corpse Escape. Eventually, after ten days of the East Spring Undying Bone’s departure from the Little Demon Realm, Wen Jiu reached the Heterodox Loose Cultivator Immortal City in the Celestial Demon Outer Sea.
