"Sword Demon" Lin Ye!

He was indeed excited.

This Cloud-Hook King is undoubtedly a top expert in the surrounding area. He possesses the bloodline of High Antiquity deity, and after cultivating to become True Immortal, not only does he enjoy a long lifespan, but his abilities are also extraordinary. Even among the True Immortal of Heavenly Lion Peak, he might not be a match for him.

It is truly a joyous occasion that such a person has come to join Heavenly Lion Peak.

Moreover, with his introduction, he will have a greater say, both with the teachers and in the future at Heavenly Lion Peak.

How could Leiyunzi not be pleased?

"I never expected that after a hundred years of silence, Cloud-Hook King would actually come to join my Heavenly Lion Peak." Leiyunzi thought to himself, and was also delighted. "It seems that I should thank that Vulture Daoist. Otherwise, if Cloud-Hook King had occupied Cloud-Hook Mountain, why would he have come to join my teacher?"

Thinking to myself.

The 'Cloud-Hook King' beside him chuckled self-deprecatingly, "Brother Dao, please don't laugh at me. I am now just a stray dog. My mountain gate cave abode were seized by that Evil Dao, and I was severely injured. It took me a full hundred years to recover. My skills are inferior to theirs, and I am now all alone. I am already very grateful that Senior Fengyinzi and Brother Dao do not mind."

Upon hearing this, Leiyunzi waved his hand and said, "Brother Yun Gou, you may not know this, but 48,000 years ago, a ferocious demon rammed into my Heavenly Lion Peak, causing heavy losses and the death of most of our True Immortal level experts. We have not been able to recover since then, which is why my master has few capable men under his command. With Brother Yun Gou's reputation, my master will definitely give you an important position now that you have come to join us. This is no exaggeration."

Leiyunzi wanted to befriend Cloud-Hook King, so he revealed the truth to try and win over Cloud-Hook King.

Upon hearing this, Cloud-Hook King felt much more at ease. However, a hint of doubt appeared on his face as he hesitated and said, "I have heard about the calamities caused by that evil demon back then, but I do not know the details. Could you tell me about it in detail, fellow Daoist?"

Why not?

Leiyunzi laughed loudly and immediately began to recount, "Back then, the origin of that ferocious demon was quite strange. I only knew that my fourth senior uncle brought it back from Buiting Mountain. For some reason, after arriving at Hundred Barbarians Mountain, this ferocious demon suddenly launched a surprise attack, not only shattering my fourth senior uncle's soul, but also turning the Myriad Spirits Cave where my fourth senior uncle was cultivating upside down."

"In the end, it was the patriarch who subdued this ferocious demon. However, the demon was cunning and had extraordinary skills, managing to escape from the patriarch's grasp. It is unknown whether the demon was unlucky or very lucky. After escaping from the patriarch's grasp, the patriarch gave chase and was about to catch up and capture it again when the patriarch of Redwood Ridge intercepted him first."

"My ancestor fought the Redwood Ridge ancestor for thousands of rounds, both of them fighting with their true strength. Although he severely injured the Redwood Ridge ancestor, he failed to retrieve the evil demon. And Redwood Ridge was also a muggle. He put the evil demon in the Five-Element Divine Furnace to refine it, but unexpectedly, the Demon Dao increased dramatically. It broke out of the furnace and killed seven Earth Immortal from Redwood Ridge in succession."

Leiyunzi's account was clearly more detailed than what Lu Qingfeng had obtained from Du Jiuyou.

Such is the origin of this evil demon.

Du Jiuyou thought it was just passing by, but Leiyunzi knew that this evil demon was tricked into coming to the Southern Borderlands border of Buiting Mountain by his deceased fourth senior uncle.

Du Jiuyou was killed when the evil demon escaped from Redwood Ridge, and his Saha Divine Religion's Killing Division intercepted it; his fate afterward is unknown. Leiyunzi, however, survived by chance and knew that the evil demon had crossed Sage-Welcoming Peak and gone to the north of Buiting Mountain. He was severely injured, and his current condition was unknown.

Afterwards, the patriarchs of Hundred Barbarians Mountain and Redwood Ridge, as well as the leader of the Saha Divine Religion Sect, personally investigated the matter, but the final result remains unknown.

But no news of the evil demons has been reported from Hundred Barbarians Mountain, Redwood Ridge, or the Saha Divine Religion, as if the investigation has yielded no results.

Over time.

So nobody paid any attention to it.

"I see."

Cloud-Hook King's face showed a look of sudden realization, but his violent nature remained hidden deep within.

As Leiyunzi led the way, he sighed, "Speaking of which, it's truly a pity for Fourth Master Uncle's Wanling lineage. The Myriad Spirits Cave contained countless spirits, as well as numerous strange insects and beasts. Yet, it was completely destroyed in that battle. Since then, even my Heavenly Lion Peak's Bai Du lineage has found it much more difficult to cultivate the 'Hundred-Poison Gu' than before."

Myriad Spirits Cave.

They enslave all living beings and raise strange insects and beasts.

"That person must have seen through his true nature, which is why he lured him here in order to enslave him."

Cloud-Hook King pondered in his heart, his anger growing even stronger, but he kept it hidden and thought to himself, "However, judging from what Leiyunzi said, at least the Heavenly Lion Peak lineage in the Hundred Barbarians Mountain has no news of him."

He pondered silently.

They had arrived at the Hundred Poison Cave on Heavenly Lion Peak.

In the blink of an eye.

Another century has passed.

The Ten Thousand Mountains of Southern Borderlands.

Located more than 30,000 li north of Vulture Mountain, there is a peak called—

Sage-Welcoming Peak.

According to ancient legend, this peak was the place where the ancient people worshipped the ancient deities, hence its name. The peak is spiral-shaped, with unique features on every side. On the sunny side of the mountain, the rock patterns resemble a giant with a golden crown, silver hair, red ribbons, and a black canopy, sitting majestically facing south, becoming more lifelike the longer one gazes at it.

The large rocks at the summit form a natural cave that can accommodate hundreds of people.

This day.

At the summit of Sage-Welcoming Peak, seven or eight people gathered together. Each of them exuded a powerful aura, some cold and aloof, some cynical, and some brimming with murderous intent; none of them were to be trifled with.

A man dressed in Black and White robe, seemingly both righteous and evil, was playing with a miniature sword in his hand. He spoke leisurely, "I have received news that the True Lord Nine Nether of the Sha Yutang was captured by the Thunder Ministry in the Human Realm two hundred years ago and will soon be executed at the Fiend-Exterminating Platform."

The Saha Divine Religion Cult is very powerful.

For countless years, relying on the towering mountains of Southern Borderlands as a natural barrier, it has continuously developed and is now a top-tier transcendent power in the entire Buiting Mountain region.

This religion divides the world into ten parts based on the ten evils of the Saha world.

Sage-Welcoming Peak is the headquarters of the first branch, the "Killing Division". The Killing Division cultivates its path through killing and is divided into eight lineages, establishing eight halls, of which the "Sha Yutang" is one.

"The Sha Yutang has two True Lords, both of whom perished and were reincarnated in the calamity 48,000 years ago. Now, Nine Netherworlds Brother Jiuyou is trapped in the Thunder Ministry's Purgatory and has no hope of escaping."

"With no news of Senior Sister Lin for a long time, I'm afraid she's in grave danger. Redwood Ridge and the Sword Immortal Sect are taking advantage of our Killing Division's weakness and pressing us step by step. The Sha Yutang has been leaderless for a long time, and we must quickly regroup."

The God of Slaughter remained unmoved and said calmly, "Currently, only my Life-Slaying Hall has two True Lords. Why not let True Lord Yuntian take charge of the Sha Yutang for the time being? Once Senior Sister Lin returns, or if another Earth Immortal status through the 'Killing Water-Rain' path, it will not be too late to return the Sha Yutang. What do you all think?"

The God of Slaughter had his full head of black hair tied up, with only a single strand of white hair hanging down from his forehead, giving him a somewhat sinister look. Behind him stood the True Lord of Cloud Heaven, dressed in a white cloud-patterned Daoist robe and wearing a purple-gold crown. He was handsome and extraordinary, not like a demon, but rather like an Attainment of the Dao immortal.

The Killing Division is divided into eight halls.

Each hall originally contained three to five Earth Immortal True Lord, or at least one or two, making them quite powerful. Among them, the one with the highest cultivation and strongest strength in each hall could be called a 'Divine Lord,' and was also the master of that hall.

However, 48,000 years ago, the Killing Division suffered a great calamity, which brought great disaster upon them.

With the arrival of the ferocious demon, the eight True Lords of the Killing Division were either killed or injured, and more than half of them perished.

Like the Sha Yutang.

There were originally two Earth Immortal, the Rain-Slaying God and the True Lord Nine Nether, but they both perished in that battle.

Take the Life-Slaying Hall for example. It previously had five True Lords, possessing the deepest foundation. Yet, in a single battle, four of them perished. Forty-eight thousand years later, only one True Lord, Cloud Heaven, has regained his Earth Immortal Dao Fruit and returned.

This is also the only branch in the entire Killing Division that currently has two Earth Immortal.

At this moment, the God of Slaughter intends to use this advantage to take control of the Sha Yutang.

"Brother Zhu is right."

"Without Earth Immortal to guard the Sha Yutang, it is difficult to withstand the attack of the Heavenly Lion Peak. A hundred years ago, a top-tier demon from the Heavenly Lion Peak joined us and led his troops in battle with great bravery. As a result, the Sha Yutang has been suffering repeated defeats, losing not only dozens of mountain peaks but also in heavy casualties. We cannot afford to delay any longer."

The Beast Slaughtering Hall Master, Beast Slaughtering God, dressed in a long robe embroidered with countless beasts, nodded in agreement.

There were eight people on the field. Now, the three of them, Killing God, Cloud Heaven True Lord, and Slaughtering Beast God, were standing together, while the remaining four Gods, Killing Life, Killing Me, Killing Wrath, and Red Dust, remained silent for a moment.

However, the Good-Evil Divine Lord, who had spoken first, smiled slightly and said, "Senior Brother Zhu, you may not know this, but seventy years ago, Tianhong Mountain in the southwest changed hands. The new master was a female Daoist named Lin Ye, who called herself the 'Sword Demon.' With just her sword, she stirred up wind and rain and slaughtered all eight thousand demon soldiers on Tianhong Mountain. In the past seventy years, she has also pacified sixteen surrounding mountains and subdued twenty-three great demons and True Immortal."

"The scale of this event is quite impressive."

"'Sword Demon' Lin Ye?"

"This person—"

The Beast-Slaying God looked at the Good-Evil Divine Lord and hesitated, "Creating wind and rain, could it be that you cultivate the 'Killing Water-Rain' path?"

The God of Slaughter, the True Lord of Cloud Heaven, and others also looked towards the Good-Evil Divine Lord.

This Tianhong Mountain is located southwest of Sage-Welcoming Peak and is the seat of the Good-Evil Hall. Only seventy years have passed since Cloud-Hook Mountain changed hands, and the news has not yet spread. Only the Good-Evil Divine Lord knows the truth.

"Good."

"Not only did he cultivate the 'Killing Water-Rain' technique, but he also deeply grasped its essence and wielded the 'Raindrop Divine Sword'."

The Good-Evil Divine Lord spoke clearly.

The expressions of everyone on the field changed instantly, and the Beast Slayer God-King raised an eyebrow, "Senior Sister Lin?!"

While there are indeed many cultivators who practice the 'Killing Water-Rain' technique, the Raindrop Divine Sword was a magical sword that Lin Yun, the Sha Yutang and the Rain God, had refined over many years, and it had long been divinely inspired. In that battle, Lin Yun died, and the Raindrop Divine Sword also disappeared without a trace.

This divine sword possesses a spirit; without the Secret Method of refining and consecrating it, one cannot even dream of mastering it.

Now that the Raindrop Divine Sword has a master, and this woman surnamed Lin cultivates the 'Killing Water-Rain' technique.

His identity is now obvious.

"But if it is Senior Sister Lin, why would she linger in Tianhong Mountain instead of returning to Sage-Welcoming Peak?"

The Red Dust Divine Lord looked puzzled.

Upon hearing this Good-Evil Divine Lord smiled, glanced at everyone present, and slowly said, "Have you all forgotten that when the evil demons were rampaging, Senior Sister Lin was the first to be hit? Her Immortal Body was shattered, her Blessed Land was torn apart, and even her divine soul was severely damaged. In the end, she barely escaped into reincarnation. Now that she has returned, it is only natural that she cannot remember some of her past life."

I feel so refreshed at midnight!
