The Game with Fairies - Chapter 364

Chapter 364: The Immortal Old Monster

In the quiet room, Yan Xiaoru’s voice softly rose, revealing one shocking secret after another.

“According to the records of the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion, everyone who practices the techniques of the Demon Refining Ancestor has become some kind of extension of the deity’s corpse, continuously supplying energy to that vividly alive deity’s corpse.”

“The ancestors of the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion speculated that the vivid deity’s corpse has not yet perished completely, and there might be a possibility of resurrection. It’s just that the rules of heaven and earth have changed greatly, and the current world can no longer accommodate the existence of deities.”

“But if someone continues to nourish the corpse, then one day in the future, this vivid deity’s corpse might resurrect.”

“And by that time, those of us who have stolen its heart and consumed the elixir of immortality will undoubtedly face certain death when pursued by a resurrected deity.”

“Therefore, we must destroy the lineage of the Demonic Sect, so that no one in the world will practice the techniques of the Demon Refining Ancestor anymore.”

Yan Xiaoru recounted the terrifying truth with a calm tone.

Li Muyang, however, was taken aback: “We?”

Yan Xiaoru glanced at him and said: “Did you think I would keep the elixir of immortality to myself if I managed to refine it?”

Li Muyang fell silent for a moment, then sighed.

“So that’s the whole truth…”

Indeed, Yan Xiaoru, as a top demonic cultivator, knew many more secrets than he did.

Yan Xiaoru did not have the perspective of an Ascender, but she still knew the secrets within the Demon Refining Sect’s mountain gate even more thoroughly than he did.

But since Yan Xiaoru wanted to destroy the lineage of the Demonic Sect…

Li Muyang pondered for a moment and said: “Speaking of killing Gong Yanghong, I know of a very powerful mysterious person who also wants to kill Gong Yanghong.”

Li Muyang decided to reveal the matter of the Everlasting North Star and take the opportunity to inquire about the Everlasting North Star’s background from Yan Xiaoru.

“That mysterious person is very powerful. He was already at the peak of the Purple Mansion realm before.”

“At the moment when the seals of the world were lifted not long ago, he quickly broke through to the Eternal Heaven Realm, most likely the first cultivator of this era to break through to the Eternal Heaven Realm.”

Li Muyang said: “Moreover, this person has an ancient immortal weapon in his hands. Although I don’t know what kind of immortal weapon it is, its power must be extraordinary.”

“He also wants to kill Gong Yanghong and has declared that he will exterminate the entire Demon Refining Sect.”

“What I know so far is that this person has a grudge against Gong Yanghong for the murder of his mother and the annihilation of his clan…”

Li Muyang detailed his understanding of the Everlasting North Star.

Although he couldn’t mention the chat group, Yan Xiaoru was not the type to dig too deep.

After listening to Li Muyang’s detailed account, Yan Xiaoru’s brows furrowed more and more.

When Li Muyang finished recounting everything, Yan Xiaoru’s expression became grave.

Learning of the existence of the Everlasting North Star, a powerful cultivator with the same goal as hers, Yan Xiaoru did not feel the joy of meeting a kindred spirit but instead felt as if facing a formidable enemy.

Her reaction made Li Muyang also sense something was amiss.

“Uh… that expression…”

Li Muyang hesitated and asked: “Can’t we ally with this person?”

Yan Xiaoru nodded seriously: “Not only can we not ally with him, but he might also become our death warrant!”

“Anyone related to the Demon Refining Sect should stay far away from this fiend, or they will surely die…”

Yan Xiaoru’s choice of words was severe.

Li Muyang was surprised: “Do you know the identity of this person?”

Yan Xiaoru shook her head lightly: “I don’t know, but I can probably guess.”

“Someone with top cultivation in the world, who has a grudge against Gong Yanghong for the annihilation of his clan, and is determined to exterminate the entire Demon Refining Sect… There aren’t many people like that.”

Yan Xiaoru pondered for a moment and then said.

“Many have a grudge against Gong Yanghong, but to simultaneously meet the conditions you mentioned… there are no more than three.”

“And among them, the Qingmu Dragon clan, which was annihilated seven hundred years ago, fits these clues the most.”

Yan Xiaoru said gravely: “Seven hundred years ago, the Qingmu Dragon clan once dominated a region. They had ancient Flood Dragon bloodlines, which were thin but numerous, and eventually developed into a major force.”

“But seven hundred years ago, the second-generation sect leader of the Demon Refining Sect, Hu Qingshan, led the sect to annihilate the Qingmu Dragon lineage, slaying all the Flood Dragons.”

“The Qingmu Dragon lineage was thus cut off.”

“According to the secret records of the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion, the lineage of the Qingmu Dragon also possesses a mysterious inheritance from an ancient ancestor. It is possible that there is an ancient immortal artifact within their clan.”

“If the person you’re talking about truly exists, then he is very likely the Qingmu Dragon that did not die 700 years ago!”

Yan Xiaoru spoke with a serious tone, “This person harbors such deep hatred towards the Demon Refining Sect. If he is capable of killing Gong Yanghong and eradicating the teachings of the Demon Refining Sect, then surely everyone associated with the Demon Refining Sect will not escape his slaughter.”

“That includes us as well…”

Yan Xiaoru continued somberly, “You said it has already lain dormant under the rule of the Demonic Sect and has even broken through to the Eternal Heaven Realm… This person is ambitious and carries a vendetta as deep as the sea. Perhaps it won’t be long before he leads an army of vengeance to strike at the Demon Refining Sect.”

“We must not only refrain from allying with him but also guard against him, even be wary of him!”

Yan Xiaoru stressed the gravity of the situation.

Li Muyang, however, was taken aback and hesitated, “But you’re talking about something that happened… 700 years ago?”

“It’s not surprising for members of the demon race to live longer.”

“But at that time, it was the second-generation sect leader, Hu Qingshan, who was in power. I can understand why this Flood Dragon would want to annihilate the Demon Refining Sect with such deep hatred. But 700 years ago, Gong Yanghong wasn’t even born, right?”

The current Demonic Sect sect leader, Gong Yanghong, is only 270 years old and is the fifth-generation sect leader of the Demon Refining Sect.

“Why does that person grind his teeth with hatred every time he mentions Gong Yanghong as if Gong Yanghong is his only arch-enemy?”

Li Muyang found it strange.

At the beginning, Everlasting North Star only wanted to kill Gong Yanghong for revenge.

It was after his breakthrough to the Eternal Heaven Realm and his increase in strength that he expanded the scope of his revenge to the entire Demon Refining Sect.

Clearly, Gong Yanghong is Everlasting North Star’s primary enemy.

But Yan Xiaoru said…

In the face of Li Muyang’s astonished gaze, Yan Xiaoru sighed.

She looked at the young man and said in a quiet voice, “This is the second great secret within the Demon Refining Sect.”

In the quiet room, Yan Xiaoru looked at Li Muyang, her tone calm but her expression grave.

“Since the founding ancestor of the Demon Refining Sect established the sect over thirteen hundred years ago, there have been five generations of sect leaders, each one a prodigy with unparalleled cultivation and powerful demonic abilities.”

“However, in the eyes of the world, the five generations of sect leaders who have come and gone are actually the same person.”

“One who has lived for over a thousand years and has never died, an immortal old monster…”

Yan Xiaoru spoke these words with an extremely calm and indifferent tone.

Yet, combined with the silence of the moment and her profound expression, it gave a tremendous sense of shock.

Li Muyang’s hair stood on end instantly.

A cold chill crawled up his spine to the crown of his head.

“Are you saying… all the successive leaders of the Demon Refining Sect have been possessed?”

“From ancient times to the present, the sect leaders of the Demon Refining Sect have all been the founding ancestor?”

Li Muyang recounted these words in horror, truly frightened.

The terrifying and brutal old monster, the founding ancestor of the Demon Refining Sect,is still alive?

And his and Yan Xiaoru’s ultimate goal is to kill this thousand-year-old monster… Damn!

The difficulty of this task just skyrocketed!
