Imperial Cultivation

Chapter 991: Chapter 987: Phantom Bones

Whether it’s the Jade Dynasty or the Phoenix Imperial City, there are Evil Sects.

But the Evil Sects are weak, mostly are Demon Sect practitioners, who cultivate the Demon Clan’s mental method.

The Evil Sect actually cultivates the Demon Clan’s mental method.

Among the Three Realms, the Demon World is first, the Demon Realm is second, and the Human World is at the bottom.

Those in the Human Race who seek shortcuts, blindly pursue strength, and covet speed, often cultivate Demonic Skills.

The Demon Clan’s mental method doesn’t match the power of the Demon Clan and has a huge impact on the body with severe recoil, rarely practiced.

It doesn’t gain momentum, even retracting and not entering the Imperial City.

He once asked Qianji Tower to keep an eye out, but no news came back.

This round bead is condensed by top Evil Cultivators, similar to the Demon Clan’s Demon Crystals, and the Evil Cultivator who condensed this bead has a cultivation realm equivalent to his Great Sky Demon level.

The strange thing is, the bead was actually discovered in the Demon World.

Evil Cultivators are often from the Human Race.

Could demons also be cultivating the Demon Clan’s cultivation technique? Or could it be that within the Demon Clan, there are evil techniques?

All of a sudden, the mystery clouds up, the Leng Family seems to know nothing, only to see if the Great Heavenly Demon Palace can make contact.

Meanwhile, within the Demon Suppression Divine Palace, the Demon Suppressing Divine Tree is eager to move.

It’s like seeing prey, full of excitement.

Chu Zhiyuan seems thoughtful.

It seems that these Evil Cultivators are the most beneficial to the Demon Suppressing Divine Tree.

...

At dawn, the golden light shines brilliantly on Zhongyun City.

Beside the North City Gate’s woods stands a small pavilion, enduring countless years of wind and rain, still standing firm.

The White Jade Stone has become mottled.

Leng Tieya stands with hands behind the back in the small pavilion, watching the travelers coming and going.

No traveler paused, unable to see him.

This is one method of the Great Sky Demon’s spiritual power application, not wanting to be discovered, it’s hard to be noticed.

He looks up at the sky.

Shakes his head.

The agreed time has already passed more than an hour.

Super Sense is released.

Only able to have Insight into the periphery of the Song Mansion, unable to see the situation within the inner courtyard, blocked by invisible forces.

...

Inside the Song Mansion, Song Lianshuang is still entwined by her mother, not allowing her to leave the mansion gate.

Song Mother, about thirty years old, charming and beautiful in appearance.

Her beauty has also been inherited by Song Lianshuang and Song Zhixia sisters.

She is holding Song Lianshuang’s hand, gently advising her not to rush to the Great Heavenly Demon Palace, to cultivate in the mansion first.

Wait until reaching the Heavenly Demon First Grade, then go to the Great Heavenly Demon Palace is not late.

The competition at the Great Heavenly Demon Palace is fierce, not as stable as the Song Mansion, feeling quite uneasy to send her there.

Moreover, the Song Mansion also has a wonderful place for cultivation, not much inferior to the Great Heavenly Demon Palace.

Song Lianshuang has excellent qualifications, the place of cultivation in the Song Mansion and the Great Heavenly Demon Palace, the gap is easy to bridge, no need to rush.

Best to wait until after marriage, then go to the Great Heavenly Demon Palace.

While speaking of marriage, first belittling Lu Mansion for being blind and then mentioning the talents in the city.

Ask Song Lianshuang which one she fancies, if none, then go to the four prominent families in the Demon World to find talents.

With her beauty and qualifications, finding a talent from the four families is no problem.

Song Lianshuang’s jade-like face grows more impatient, her bright eyes gradually turn cold.

Standing on the side watching the excitement, Song Zhixia giggles, showing no intention to help.

Song Lianshuang coldly gives her a glare.

Song Zhixia shrinks her head and quickly says, ”Mom, alright now!”

”You ungrateful child!” Song Mother turns to glare at her, ”You’d watch your second sister leave, without a thought to detain her?”

”Mom, let second sister go, someone is waiting.”

”Who? Who is waiting?”

”Hehe, Third Young Master Leng.” Song Zhixia giggles, ”They plan to go together to the Great Heavenly Demon Palace.”

Song Lianshuang gives Song Zhixia a fierce look.

Having her support the conversation, not disrupt!

Song Lianshuang turns to look at her mother, seeing Song Mother very surprised.

”Mom...”

”Leng Tieya?”

”Mom, I...”

”Good!” Song Mother’s eyes instantly light up, ”You are going to the Great Heavenly Demon Palace with Leng Tieya?”

”... Yes.” Song Lianshuang hesitates and nods.

Song Zhixia giggles, ”Mom, second sister and Brother Leng are old acquaintances, shared hardships, now going to the Great Heavenly Demon Palace together, looking after each other, hehe... their relationship is unusual!”

Song Lianshuang shoots her a sideways glance.

Song Zhixia sticks out her tongue, ”Fine fine, I won’t say anymore.”

Song Mother pats Song Lianshuang’s fragrant shoulder, ”Good girl! You should have said earlier!”

”Mom...”

”You want to marry Leng Tieya?” Song Mother asks.

Song Lianshuang’s jade-like face instantly flushes, the blush quickly spreads across her cheeks, exquisitely tempting, ”Mom—!”

”A grown girl should marry, what’s the embarrassment?” Song Mother waves her hand, ”If it were someone else, I might be reluctant, feeling it’s a compromise on your part, but the Leng Family’s third son, that’s not bad!”

She snorts, ”In the whole Zhongyun City, only he can handle it well, worthy of you Lianshuang.”

”Mom, don’t talk nonsense...”

Song Zhixia interrupts, ”Second sister, are you unwilling to marry Brother Leng?”

”You shut up!” Song Lianshuang hums.

Song Zhixia laughs, ”I can’t bear to watch you be so contradictory, saying one thing while meaning another!”

Song Mother turns to leave, ”I’ll let your father inform Leng Dongge, tell Leng Dongge to propose quickly!”

”Mom—!” Song Lianshuang hurriedly grips her.

Song Mother looked at her with confusion, ”You don’t want to marry him?”

”Mother,” Song Lianshuang said, ”I’m far from the point of discussing marriage with Brother Leng.”

”As long as you have the intention, you can get engaged and gradually get acquainted. Besides, the two families know each other well... Except for being a bit mischievous, Third Young Master Leng has no other faults, his character is not bad, you won’t be wronged marrying him.”

”Mother, let’s wait a bit,” Song Lianshuang said, ”It’s best when the time is right, rushing will only ruin things.”

”Your patience!” Song Mother was helpless.

Song Zhixia laughed, ”I thought you would oppose Second Sister marrying Brother Leng, given that Brother Leng was rejected by the Lu Family girl.”

”That’s because their Lu Family is short-sighted!” Song Mother pursed her lips and said, ”Besides, don’t you know the situation of the Fourth girl from the Lu Family?”

Both Song Lianshuang and Song Zhixia shook their heads.

Lu QiaoZhen was rumored deliberately to damage her reputation.

It’s said there’s no smoke without fire; if Lu QiaoZhen had no flaws, the rumors wouldn’t have spread.

Lu QiaoZhen was unaffected, enjoying gatherings and roaming inside and outside the city.

”She always thinks she’s above others, believing no young man in Zhongyun City is good enough for her, including Third Young Master Leng, truly doesn’t know the heights of heaven and earth!”

Song Zhixia said, ”Mother, won’t Father agree?”

”I’ll talk to him,” Song Mother snorted, looking at Song Lianshuang’s expression, she said helplessly, ”Now Leng Tieya is very sought after, we’re late; other girls might snatch him first.”

Song Zhixia said, ”Leng Mansion won’t easily agree with other families now too?”

”What if it’s an even superior family?” Song Mother snorted, ”So better act sooner than later!... Alright, you go first, leave the rest to me!”

”Hehe, Second Sister you better go quickly, don’t keep Brother Leng waiting,” Song Zhixia urged.

Song Lianshuang looked at Song Mother helplessly.

Song Mother waved her hand, ”Go quickly, don’t lose faith.”

”...Alright, then I’m going, don’t act too hastily,” Song Lianshuang could only advise with concern.

”Stop nagging, go quickly,” Song Mother turned and walked out of the small courtyard.

Song Zhixia followed cheerfully, turning back to wave before leaving the courtyard.

Song Lianshuang glanced at the sky and hurriedly left the courtyard.

As she arrived at the North City Gate and saw Leng Tieya in the pavilion, her jade face blushed.

She forced down her shyness, stepped forward to apologize, ”Brother Leng, I’m sorry, I’m late.”

”It’s good that you’re here,” Leng Tieya stared intently at her jade face, smiling, ”I thought Sister Song might be stopped by your mansion.”

Her blushing face and shy demeanor made her more attractive, causing his heart to stir.

Song Lianshuang dared not meet his eyes, fearing she’d blush even more, she softly said, ”Then shall we set out?”

”Let’s go,” Leng Tieya agreed.

The two stepped out of the pavilion side by side, leaped up to the treetops, and floated away.

The breeze brushed their faces as they leisurely traveled, chatting along the way.

Leng Tieya spoke of the Meng Family trip, exchanging the Soul Suppressing Seal and Canghai’s Handwriting.

Song Lianshuang immediately curious, questioning their importance compared to the Soul Suppressing Seal.

Leng Tieya replied, ”Whether pursuing slaughter or the realm, it’s hard to balance both. This time, I chose realm advancement, Canghai’s Handwriting is greatly beneficial for me.”

After observing Canghai’s Handwriting, he deeply felt its profound impact, the Great Sky Demon’s progress accelerating.

Normally, the Great Sky Demon’s cultivation is calculated in decades, sometimes a century per transition, similar to the Human Race’s Venerable.

To quickly progress, one must use Canghai’s Handwriting.

Song Lianshuang sighed, ”To make such a decision, Brother Leng, you’re probably the first.”

Leng Tieya shook his head, ”They’ll all say I’m foolish, an idiot.”

”Brother Leng, you’re a Great Sky Demon, why care what they say? Once you achieve Supreme Heavenly Demon, they’ll all bow their heads,” Song Lianshuang said.

”Supreme Heavenly Demon...” Leng Tieya looked into the distance with emotion.

Their speed underfoot increased.

Upon reaching a mountain peak, Leng Tieya suddenly stopped, gazing at the peak—Dan Yang Peak.

This was where he found the Black Pearl in his hand.

Song Lianshuang curiously looked at the peak, without noticing anything unusual.

Leng Tieya’s expression became increasingly serious.

He made a discovery.

”What’s wrong, Brother Leng?”

”Let’s go,” Leng Tieya flew diagonally downward, finally stopping midway on the cliff.

In front lay a moss-covered area, seemingly without anomaly.

He lightly tapped his right palm.

The Hand Seal solidified in midair, clearly striking toward the dense moss on the stone wall.

”Pop!”

Amidst a muffled sound, the moss and stone shattered.

”Whoosh...”

The wind’s roar was low like a tiger.

A pitch-black cave entrance appeared before Leng Tieya and Song Lianshuang.

Song Lianshuang’s bright eyes flickered as she curiously examined, not rushing to explore inside.

Leng Tieya floated down into the cave, only then did Song Lianshuang follow.

Upon entering, an exotic scent filled the air.

Song Lianshuang exclaimed, ”Brother Leng, are there Strange Flowers and Fruits here?”

Leng Tieya’s face darkened, shaking his head, ”Let’s keep looking inside.”

They steadily walked inward, the cave growing darker, turning a corner to reveal scattered light points.

It was small flowers, crystal-clear, radiating a pure brightness, gently swaying as if welcoming them.

Song Lianshuang’s jade face turned grim.

Her bright eyes flickered, already seeing the stunning flowers growing from skull eyes.

”These are... Ghost Bone Flowers?” Song Lianshuang whispered.

Leng Tieya looked at her.

The original memories didn’t include this name.

Song Lianshuang softly said, ”Ghost Bone Flowers, seemingly planted by the Ghost Bone Sect, but the Sect has long vanished.”

”Ghost Bone Sect...” Leng Tieya frowned.

The original memories still lacked information.
