Chapter 525: Chapter 353: Yinhuai Puppet, Punishing Polymerization with the Blade!
The pupil of this eyeball is as black as ink, surrounded by a circle of bloodshot veins, appearing extremely strange. However, as the eyeball rotates, it moves with great agility, seeming to be full of spiritual wisdom.
Moreover, this eyeball is perfectly integrated with the cliff, as though they were born together. Ordinary cultivators would not detect anything unusual.
The eyeball merely glanced at Gu Yuan briefly before retracting into the mountain, disappearing as if it had never appeared.
Yet, at the moment the black eyeball appeared, deep beneath another inconspicuous mountain a thousand miles away, an elder with a star crown and youthful appearance suddenly opened his eyes.
This elder was no one else but Yinghuai Great Demon, who had once met Gu Yuan at Yunji Sect.
It was also he who recommended Wei Xingyuan.
At this moment, his pupils were gleaming black, seemingly seeing some scene. A thoughtful expression surfaced on his face.
"Shua!"
Subsequently, he waved his sleeve, and a light curtain suddenly emerged, from which numerous vivid portraits flowed out.
"A Golden Core cultivator who had never appeared in Yunji Sect, where did he come from?"
"There must be something fishy!"
The elder’s eyebrow twitched, eyes reflecting a cold glint.
A year ago, due to recommending a Demonic Cultivator to plot against "Master Feiyu," he had been thoroughly "interrogated" by Yunji Sect.
Fortunately, he had only a superficial acquaintance with Wei Xingyuan, the two merely established simple contracts regarding Magical Combat, and he was completely unaware of the so-called "Demon Embryo Golden Seal."
He knew nothing about the heritage behind Wei Xingyuan.
This allowed him to walk out unscathed from Yunji Sect’s "interrogation."
Otherwise, a major incident would have been inevitable.
This incident left him deeply worried; he never imagined Wei Xingyuan’s origin was so mysterious, capable of disrupting Yunji Sect’s Dharma Assembly and escaping unscathed.
But after Wei Xingyuan escaped, all of his "hopes" were dashed.
Not only could he not obtain the Longevity Fruit, but he couldn’t even dream of getting the Breaking Miasma Pill.
This left him immensely irritated.
The reason he chose to collaborate with the Demon Cultivator, defying the world’s outrage, was out of desperation.
He had little time left.
Without the Longevity Fruit, without opportunities, he only had decades left to live.
Only risky strategies could offer a glimmer of hope.
Unfortunately, Wei Xingyuan failed, almost implicating him, forcing him to rethink his plans.
But after considering and reconsidering, there was only one option.
Plunder!
Items that extend life are exceedingly rare, and to obtain them, one must resort to plunder.
Among the top three and top two of the Dharma Assembly, one was Divine Will Sect, the other Celestial Heart Sect, both reputable major sects, led by figures renowned for several hundred years, at Golden Core Peak.
Trying to seize the Longevity Fruit from such figures is as difficult as ascending to heaven.
After much hesitation, he finally focused his target on the Three-headed Infant Fox and Master Feiyu.
Although the Three-headed Infant Fox is powerful, it’s merely a Demon King of Cloud Dream Marsh, without deep roots.
Master Feiyu, regardless, is just a Mid-stage Golden Core, relying only on Old Ghost Infant Fox.
These one human and one demon, although winning the top position in the Dharma Assembly, possessed the lowest strength among the sects at the assembly.
The treasure is precious, yet the strength is weak.
Isn’t this like a child carrying gold?
Thinking of his short lifespan, he immediately made up his mind to set an ambush far outside Yunji Sect’s gate.
But he wasn’t foolish; he naturally wouldn’t brazenly ambush.
Master Feiyu has unusual methods, plus the Three-headed Infant Fox, he wasn’t entirely confident.
After considerable deliberation, he decided to use Secret Techniques, secretly monitoring from four directions, to gauge the situation before acting.
Unexpectedly, after months of waiting, he hadn’t seen the human and the demon exit the gate of Yunji Sect.
He immediately felt a sense of foreboding.
Could it be Master Feiyu was taken in by Yunji Sect?
In that case, his plan would end in failure before it even started.
But "the unwillingness of his short lifespan" made him reluctant to give up just yet.
So ultimately decided to continue waiting.
At the same time, being clever, he immediately considered an idea.
Change appearance!
Master Feiyu, having obtained such a precious treasure, would he really brazenly walk out of Yunji Sect’s gate?
Perhaps he had already changed his appearance.
Golden Core cultivators, their Divine Thought memory being so exaggerated, he immediately visualized the features of all Golden Core cultivators who participated in the Dharma Assembly for comparison.
And today, he finally discovered an anomaly.
This broad-faced, square-jawed, rather ugly yellow-faced man had never appeared at this Dharma Assembly!
A Mid-stage Golden Core cultivator who had never appeared before, why suddenly walk out from Yunji Sect’s gate?
He had a premonition, this yellow-faced man, nine times out of ten, wasn’t a secret breakthrough to Golden Core at Yunji Sect.
"Could it be Master Feiyu’s transformation?"
"Did that old fox not accompany him?"
Upon this thought, he was so excited he nearly jumped up.
"Calm down! Calm down!"
"Master Feiyu is not easy to deal with; this place is also quite close to Yunji Sect’s gate, better act cautiously first!"
"Test him first, test him first!"
He forced himself to suppress his excitement, calming himself down.
His short lifespan compelled him to risk this daring move outside Yunji Sect’s gate for the top position figure.
But a daring move is not a suicidal one; if the situation becomes impossible, he’d abandon and seek alternative methods.
"Go!"
His shoulder shook, and behind him emerged a cluster of dark light, transforming into the image of a man with disheveled hair and an ancient-looking face.
