"After all, my remaining lifespan is not much, so I have to make arrangements for my disciples!"

Lady Ling Snake said, hunching her body, like a candle in the wind, a stark contrast to when she had previously manifested her python Spiritual Power.

Among the Spirit Condensation Realm cultivators present, who hadn't weathered storms before? How could they believe the facade Lady Ling Snake was putting on?

The Blue Lotus Monk transmitted his voice to Chen Ming, saying, "Fellow Daoist, you've arrived in a hurry and don't have a secret token to enter yet. Lady Ling Snake has quite a few on her now; why not ask her for one?"

Chen Ming did not reply. "The Divine Monk invited me here. You should be the one to ask her for it."

"Indeed, Fellow Daoist is right!"

The Blue Lotus Monk smiled, took a step forward, and said, "Lady Ling Snake, I invited Fellow Daoist Xuan Mingzi to go to the secret realm with me, but I'm missing a secret token. Could you lend me one?"

Upon hearing this, Lady Ling Snake swept them with her Spiritual Sense. She saw that both the Blue Lotus Monk and Chen Ming had the aura of the Spirit Condensation Realm, possessed considerable strength, and showed no signs of declining lifespan.

She smiled slightly and said, "It's nothing, it's nothing. It's just a secret token, no need to talk about borrowing."

"Consider it my Ling Snake Mountain forging a good connection with you two Fellow Daoists!"

With that, Lady Ling Snake decisively took out a secret token and gave it to Chen Ming.

Chen Ming had now experienced Lady Ling Snake's adeptness at handling matters.

However, holding the secret token, Chen Ming couldn't help but feel indebted.

"Good!"

"The secret realm is about to open, so I won't stand on ceremony!" Chen Ming nodded to Lady Ling Snake, acknowledging the good connection.

The secret token in his hand grew slightly warm, a sign that the secret realm was about to open.

"Rumble!"

With a loud noise, a purple light manifested in the sky above Beichen Mountain.

"Blue Lotus Monk, you've done well!"

A cold shout emerged from the purple light. It wasn't the secret realm opening.

It was True Person Suyuan of the Divine Firmament Sect who had found this place!

While the Blue Lotus Monk's Spiritual Power was profound, the Divine Firmament Sect had its foundations.

True Person Suyuan, having lost a clone, couldn't deduce the traces through conventional means, so he brought out a magic treasure left by his sect's ancestor and used its power to deduce.

This deduction revealed that Fuyunzi had perished and his clone had entered Chen Ming's White Bone Demon Pot.

How could True Person Suyuan tolerate this? He directly tracked them down.

"So, it's a nest of Mo gathered here!"

"Perfect, I'll take care of them all at once!"

True Person Suyuan manifested his form and swept his gaze across Beichen Mountain. He saw that the mountain was filled with people of unorthodox paths.

The Blue Lotus Monk was mingling with these individuals. Although he wore a disguise, he was clearly illuminated by True Person Suyuan's treasure.

"It's True Person Suyuan of the Divine Firmament Sect!"

"Who offended him to make him come looking for us!"

"True Person Suyuan's strength is comparable to ours, but he holds his sect's ancestor's treasure. We can't resist it!"

The cultivators on Beichen Mountain became anxious. The secret realm was about to open, and such a complication had arisen. Their feelings could be imagined.

True Person Suyuan caught sight of Chen Ming, his heart stirred. He pointed at him and said, "You wicked Mo, you refined my clone!"

"Die!"

Chen Ming sneered, "I haven't even destroyed your Divine Firmament Sect yet, and you've come knocking on my door!"

The White Bone Demon Pot in Chen Ming's hand rose, and the Blood Bead appeared. Karmic poison smoke and countless insects flew out, charging towards True Person Suyuan.

The Blue Lotus Monk, his identity exposed, no longer hid himself.

A blue lotus bloomed beneath his feet, and strange Sanskrit chants entered True Person Suyuan's ears.

"Divine Firmament Exorcism!"

Purple light surged from True Person Suyuan's body, blocking the Spiritual Powers of Chen Ming and the Blue Lotus Monk.

However, he was also obstructed by their powers and couldn't free his hands.

Chen Ming calmly formed hand seals and recited incantations.

The Blood Bead in the White Bone Demon Pot trembled, and a thumb-sized insect emitting a purple glow jumped out.

This insect was formed from True Person Suyuan's clone. As soon as it appeared, True Person Suyuan sensed it.

"How dare you, Mo, do this!"

True Person Suyuan's temples throbbed, and a sense of alarm arose. He cursed.

Chen Ming completely ignored him, blew a breath towards the purple insect, and the insect wriggled, transforming into a thumb-sized human figure.

Immediately after, five-colored light erupted behind Chen Ming, forming five-colored needle-like lights of red, black, cyan, yellow, and white.

"Pfft!"

The five-colored needle light pierced the little figure.

True Person Suyuan let out a scream, and the five-colored needle light fell upon him out of nowhere.

It pierced True Person Suyuan's internal organs, immobilizing his spirit, soul, consciousness, and essence.

True Person Suyuan's body stiffened, unable to move.

"What kind of technique is this? It's truly hard to defend against!"

Not only the Blue Lotus Monk, but all the Spirit Condensation Realm cultivators on Beichen Mountain, seeing Chen Ming's bizarre technique, also found it difficult to defend against.

Chen Ming seized the opportunity while True Person Suyuan was immobilized. The karmic poison smoke transformed into a large hand, grabbed True Person Suyuan, and began to drag him into the White Bone Demon Pot.

True Person Suyuan's heart filled with anxiety, but he couldn't move, nor could he circulate his Magical Power.

He had many life-saving items on him, but his momentary overconfidence had trapped him in a quagmire, unable to escape.

Just then, a seven-colored cloud energy rapidly approached from afar. It was Fairy Caiyi, riding a Luan Bird.

Fairy Caiyi arrived at Beichen Mountain and saw True Person Suyuan fall into the trap. She was startled. He had many protective treasures left by his ancestor; how could he not be a match?

Then, she glanced at Chen Ming and sensed that he was the one who had destroyed her Seven-Colored Clothes.

"How did he cultivate to the Spirit Condensation Realm so quickly? And how can he restrain True Person Suyuan? His methods are unfathomable. He must be a mole from the Myriad Laws Sect."

Fairy Caiyi's thoughts raced, and she grew wary.

On the surface, however, Fairy Caiyi showed an anxious expression and called out crisply, "True Person Suyuan, I've come to help you!"

She urged her Luan Bird forward. Its colorful tail feathers swept out, scattering the large hand formed by Chen Ming's karmic poison smoke.

Gaining this opening, True Person Suyuan also caught his breath and immediately activated his protective treasure. The stiffness in his body slowly dissipated.

"Fairy Caiyi!"

Chen Ming was startled. He hadn't expected Fairy Caiyi to find him.

"Explode!"

He made a decisive move, shouting loudly. The five-colored needle light embedded in True Person Suyuan suddenly detonated.

Tugging at True Person Suyuan's internal organs, it blasted five bloody holes in his body.

At the same time, Chen Ming crushed the little figure formed from the worm in his hand. True Person Suyuan's sea of consciousness throbbed with intense pain, and he fell from the sky.

Fortunately, Fairy Caiyi used her cloud energy to catch True Person Suyuan, preventing him from hitting the ground.

"You demonic fiend! You killed my sect's disciple without reason and severely wounded True Person Suyuan. How can we, the righteous path, tolerate you!" Fairy Caiyi declared righteously in a loud voice.

"Who are you saying that to? Which one on this mountain is righteous?"

After Chen Ming spoke, the secret token in his hand transformed into a stream of light and merged with the secret tokens held by the other Spirit Condensation Realm cultivators.

A secret realm portal opened in the sky above Beichen Mountain.

Everyone soared into the secret realm, and the aura they displayed were indeed the methods of unorthodox and demonic paths.

In an instant, the portal vanished.

Fairy Caiyi was not angered. She glanced at the severely wounded and unconscious True Person Suyuan, knowing he could still faintly sense the outside world.

A scheme formed in her mind!

She circulated her Magical Power and called out crisply into the air, "Demonic fiend, do not be presumptuous! Once I have healed True Person Suyuan, I will surely destroy you all!"

After speaking, Fairy Caiyi circulated her Magical Power to obscure True Person Suyuan's senses and swirled her cloud energy in the air.

Once True Person Suyuan had completely fainted, she mounted her Colorful Feather Luan Bird and took him towards the Divine Firmament Sect.
