Chapter 165 – Throbbing with Passion
The old man grumbled, “This is really troublesome!” He stared coldly at Zhao Chuanliang and said, “I don’t want to kill right now, so get lost!” The old man wasn’t lying; the mysterious Corpse Sect was more terrifying to him than a level 4 or 5 cultivation country.
Unless he had to, he really didn’t want to fight them. What made him most angry was that the fight wasn’t even about himself, but about a junior who had no connection to him other than him having to take advantage of this brat.
Zhao Chuanliang’s pupils constricted as he stared at the old man. The old man’s wave of his hand had shattered his attack. This secretly shocked him. He had already heard about this old man from Hou Fen. The reason he had brought all the Nascent Soul cultivators from the sect was precisely to prevent this person from taking action.
But now it seemed this person’s cultivation level was far higher than he had anticipated. Zhao Chuanliang pondered for a moment and then said, “Senior, this person is related to an important matter in my Corpse Sect. I must take him with me today.”
The old man sighed silently. He wondered why this brat was so troublesome. Of all the people he could mess with, why did he have to offend the Corpse Sect? If he had a choice, he would just leave and not get involved in this anymore.
However, he had no other choice. Offending the Corpse Sect wouldn’t be a big deal if he succeeded in that place.
And looking back at Ma Liang’s previous actions, the boy was certain that he would act. Even though he hated this, he couldn’t help but admire this boy as well.
Those who cultivate demonic methods are different from normal people. The Eighth Extreme Demon King believed that Wang Lin’s actions were correct. If he were in that position, he would have done the same.
After hearing Zhao Chuanliang’s words, the Eighth Extreme Demon King frowned. He stared at Wang Lin and asked coldly, “How did you offend the Corpse Sect?”
Wang Lin looked at the cruel Corpse Sect members and calmly said, “I don’t know.”
Zhao Chuanliang’s eyes were like lightning as he stared at Wang Lin and said, “You don’t know? You killed the Corpse Sect disciples in the Burning Gold Mountains and you dare say you don’t know?”
Wang Lin rolled his eyes and said, “I still don’t know.” After that, he didn’t even look at Zhao Chuanliang as he closed his eyes and began cultivating. However, in his heart, he was prepared to escape into the Sea of Devils with the Earth Escape Technique if the old man decided not to help him.
Zhao Chaunliang sneered. He looked at the old man and said, “Senior, this person not only killed my Corpse Sect disciples, he also captured the soul of a Tian Gang disciple, Xu Liguo, who came to possess his body. I spent a lot of effort and even traveled to Tian Gang to buy this information from old man Tian Di. This can’t be wrong.”
The old man’s face became a little ugly as he muttered, “Old man Tian Di…”
“Old Man Tian Di’s cultivation is extremely powerful. He was able to discern what happened back then using Xu Liguo’s soul lamp. This person named Ma Liang was the one who killed my Corpse Sect disciples and trapped Xu Liguo’s soul!” After that, Zhao Chuanliang waved his hand and his body disappeared.
The four Nascent Soul cultivators behind him also disappeared and reappeared before the Eighth Extreme Demon Lord. As for Zhao Chuanliang, he appeared above Wang Lin and quickly released a wisp of black smoke from his hand. At the same time, the Core Formation cultivators within the formation began to chant mysterious incantations. The formation immediately expanded rapidly, covering an area of approximately 1,000 kilometers.
A cold light flashed across the Eighth Extreme Demon King’s eyes as he rapidly split into two. This avatar quickly appeared between Zhao Chuanliang and Wang Lin. It opened its mouth and sucked in all the black gas.
“Insolent!” the avatar shouted, as a green gourd suddenly appeared in his hand. With a slap, the cork on the bottle was removed, and a powerful force erupted from the gourd.
Ripples appeared in the air, originating from the mouth of the gourd, and they spread outward. Zhao Chuanliang’s expression immediately changed as he and the other four Nascent Soul cultivators teleported several times to return to the formation.
The old man’s gaze was cold. His voice was low as he said slowly, “There are reasons why I haven’t slaughtered people for a long time, but a mere early Nascent Soul cultivator dares to act so impudently before me. If you harm even a single hair on Ma Liang’s head today, I, the Eighth Extreme Demon King, will exterminate your Corpse Sect!”
With that, he reached out and formed a giant hand. Like a broken child’s toy, the Corpse Sect’s transfer formation shattered. The energy within it quickly spread in all directions and disappeared.
Aside from the five pale-faced Nascent Soul cultivators who were able to dodge it, all the Core Formation cultivators were turned to dust by this shockwave along with the coffins behind them.
Zhao Chuanliang’s body shivered as he stared at the old man and said bitterly, “Senior’s cultivation level is very high, but becoming an enemy of the Corpse Sect is not a wise thing! With Senior’s cultivation, you should have some understanding of our Corpse Sect, but what you understand is only the tip of the iceberg. I once again advise Senior not to make an enemy of the Corpse Sect. Even if Senior is the city lord of one of the Seven Plum Blossom Cities, it will be difficult to escape death!”
The Eighth Extreme Demon King didn’t want to offend the Corpse Sect, so he didn’t kill these five. As for the Core Formation cultivators, he scanned them with his divine sense to ensure that none of them were possessed. He only killed them after confirming that they weren’t possessed.
The old man frowned and said slowly, “This person is very useful to me. Otherwise, I wouldn’t bother protecting him. You guys should just leave. If it weren’t for today, I wouldn’t bother doing this.”
Wang Lin coldly watched everything that happened. Although his expression remained normal as the old man destroyed the teleportation formation, his heart was shocked. This Eighth Extreme Demon King was able to destroy the Hou Fen Union’s sect-protecting formation with a single palm and easily destroy the Corpse Sect’s teleportation formation. Wang Lin had been wondering what cultivation level this old man was at and came to a conclusion that made him stop breathing.
In fact, he had suspected this from the start. Ever since the old man started chasing him in the Sea of Devils, everything this old man did showed how powerful his cultivation was.
Soul Formation!
This Eighth Extreme Demon King’s cultivation level was most likely Soul Formation, otherwise it would be impossible for him to have so easily done what he had done.
After hearing Zhao Chuanliang talk about the Seven Plum Blossom Cities in the Deep Sea of Demons, Wang Lin remembered the name. His gaze shifted to the old man and fixated on the seven plum blossoms on the old man’s clothes.
Zhao Chuanliang pondered for a moment before staring coldly at Wang Lin. He said slowly, “Ma Liang, the Corpse Sect is far beyond your imagination. Offending the Corpse Sect is the biggest mistake of your life!” After that, he disappeared.
The four Nascent Soul cultivators also stared coldly at Wang Lin before disappearing.
Wang Lin pondered for a moment. If it weren’t for the Corpse Sect followers who attacked him first with murderous intent, he wouldn’t have killed them. If he let Xu Liguo go, it would cause a series of problems.
However, the cultivation world operates by the law of the jungle. The Corpse Sect is like a vast and powerful being. If it’s your fault, it’s your fault. Even if it’s not your fault, it’s still your fault.
Wang Lin took a deep breath. Even though he had been extremely careful, he had still gotten into this much trouble. Ultimately, it was because his cultivation level wasn’t high enough. If he had the same cultivation level as the Eighth Extreme Demon King, then even if he had killed one person, it wouldn’t have been a big deal.
Wang Lin became even more determined to reach the Nascent Soul stage. Whether for himself or to return to Zhao to take revenge on Teng Huayuan, he absolutely had to successfully reach the Nascent Soul stage, or everything he wanted to do would just be a dream.
The Eighth Extreme Demon King turned to Wang Lin and said grimly, “Little one, this is the second time I’ve helped you. No matter what misunderstanding we had, this should be more than enough to make up for it. I hope that when we go in, you won’t try any unnecessary schemes!”
The Eighth Extreme Demon King now had a slight understanding of Wang Lin’s evil plans and the time he had spent pursuing him. This Ma Liang was a good seed for demonic cultivation. He easily guessed what had happened after hearing about this matter from Zhao Chuanliang. This boy was extremely ruthless and daring.
In the Devil’s Sea, this brat dared to act openly with a kill order. He used the kill order to lure people to him, killing them until they fled in fear. It could be said that this person was extremely decisive and ruthless.
When he expelled him from the Demon Sea, the boy dared to leave a flying sword to ambush him, even drawing blood. This shows how bold this person is.
If that were all, then he would be nothing, but this person even borrowed someone’s power to force the War God Temple to allow him to see the Divine Path. This person was truly a true schemer.
Just now, when Zhao Chuanliang attacked him, he didn’t even blink. He didn’t show the slightest trace of panic. This showed how calm and determined he was.
Besides all this, the Eighth Extreme Demon King remembered that it took him three years to finally trap this person. In the end, the only word the old man could use to describe him was “cunning as a fox.”
This man is cruel, brave, and decisive. He is also very brave, cunning, determined, and as cunning as a fox.
Even the Eighth Extreme Demon King was tempted after carefully analyzing the situation. He stared at Wang Lin as a thought appeared in his mind.
