Immortal-Burying Pass

At the name, Jiang Yuechu finally showed some interest.

The Dao Cultivation that demon monk and the dead Abbot Wangyou had provided was strange indeed.

"What did they say?"

Xu Changfeng took a deep breath and slowly uttered three words.

"Immortal-Burying Pass."

Jiang Yuechu frowned slightly.

"Where is that?"

"According to those three, Wangchi disappeared sixty years ago because he went to Immortal-Burying Pass."

"Not only can you turn it into your own Spirit Imprint and enter the Four Hall-Entering Realms, you can even... seize a demon's long lifespan."

Xu Changfeng paused, disgust flashing in his eyes.

Jiang Yuechu nodded thoughtfully.

Xu Changfeng nodded. "Those three old monks didn't know the exact method, but they'd heard Wangchi mention it."

"This method defies heaven. As demonic energy builds up inside the practitioner, there's a chance they'll gradually lose their humanity..."

Xu Changfeng looked at Jiang Yuechu, his expression serious.

"My lady, Immortal-Burying Pass is no good place."

"If this method spreads, the consequences will be unthinkable."

"I recommend reporting
