The one who knocked Guo Pengsheng unconscious was naturally Ling Yi's Clone.
The goal is to obtain Guo Pengsheng's method of controlling Demonic Insect.
Guo Pengsheng's method of controlling the Demonic Insect is definitely incomplete, and may even have been tampered with, but Ling Yi has a system. As long as he gives Zhang Yunya a gift, he will receive a ten-thousand-fold return and will eventually obtain the complete version of the control method.
With a wave of his hand, Ling Yi's storage ring appeared in Guo Pengsheng's hand.
Forcibly reopening the storage ring's Restriction with his powerful Spiritual Sense caused Guo Pengsheng was previously unconscious on the ground, to groan again.
He fell into a more complete coma.
His storage ring was a high-grade Dharma Artifact, which Guo Pengsheng had already Refinement and bound to with his Spiritual Sense.
Now that Ling Yi has forcibly pushed him away, his Spiritual Sense will naturally be damaged.
Soon, Ling Yi found what he needed in the storage ring.
This is a black jade slip containing the very method for controlling Demonic Insect that Ling Yi needs right now: the Myriad Gu Art.
The Myriad Gu Art had actually reached the lower-grade Earth Grade level, a grade much higher than Ling Yi had imagined.
Not only that, Ling Yi also found two boxes containing Demonic Insect in his storage ring.
Ling Yi didn't touch the two boxes containing the Demonic Insect.
After Ling Yi Copy a copy of the Myriad Gu Art, he put it back into his storage ring.
"Seems smart, but is actually a fool!" Ling Yi kicked Guo Pengsheng Taunt.
Why do I say this? Because Guo Pengsheng's soul had already been implanted with Demonic Insect.
A pitiful little thing who has long been used as a pawn.
The Old Liu and the Old Liu are still a level apart!
Ling Yi's Clone slowly disappeared, heading straight back to his main body.
A few minutes later, Guo Pengsheng rubbed the back of his head and stood up.
"Hiss!" Feeling the sharp pain coming from the back of his head, he couldn't help but gasp.
He checked himself over and, finding no other injuries, felt somewhat relieved.
But he soon realized something was wrong; his Spiritual Sense was damaged, and he was finding it difficult to concentrate for a while.
The storage ring that was originally on her finger was now lying on the ground.
"Oh no!" Guo Pengsheng exclaimed in alarm.
He quickly picked up the storage ring to check it, and sure enough, the Restriction on the storage ring had been broken, and it was now ownerless.
But West City inside was still there, nothing was missing, especially the two Demonic Insect that he cared about most.
"What exactly happened? Who is it? You bastard!" Guo Pengsheng's face was extremely ugly.
Regardless of who the other party is, it proves one thing.
He had Demonic Insect on his body, and his cultivation of the Myriad Gu Art had been exposed.
What puzzled him most was, what exactly was the other party's purpose?
Could there be Old Liu within the sect?
Fortunately, Guo Pengsheng was only the Old Liu child, so he quickly calmed down.
Regardless of the other party's purpose, since they neither killed him nor touched the items in his storage ring, they must have some ulterior motive.
If there's a hidden agenda, it will reappear sooner or later.
Daodao figures flashed through Guo Pengsheng's mind.
If the opponent was able to knock me unconscious without my noticing, their strength must be higher than mine, but probably only slightly higher.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have Sneak Attack.
Nine times out of ten, they are still in the Late Foundation Establishment and have not yet reached the Golden Core Realm.
Within the sect, there are quite a few people with strength in this range. It's impossible for the nine true disciples to attack him, as they are all controlled by their own Demonic Insect.
That range is between the core disciples and inner disciples, specifically those few in the Late Foundation Establishment.
Among the core disciples, there are more than a dozen who have reached the Late Foundation Establishment, while among the inner disciples, there is only one who has reached the Late Foundation Establishment.
But Gu Pengsheng couldn't immediately determine who it was.
"Don't let me find out who you are!"
Guo Pengsheng cursed angrily and turned to leave.
Around 10 PM.
Inside Zhang Yunya's cave at the summit of Shuiyue Peak.
At this moment, Zhang Yunya was also pondering the matter of the Demonic Insect. She naturally knew that the Demonic Insect had been dissolved by the Power of the Five Elements in the Five Elements Yuan Transformation Art.
He also learned about the Myriad Insects Sect and the Demonic Insect through " Secret Accounts of the Immortal Cultivation Realm ".
But it was precisely because she knew this that Zhang Yunya was extremely worried.
She even suspected that the Heaven and Earth Sect might have been infested with Demonic Insect, or that the Heaven and Earth Sect might have been controlled by the Myriad Insects Sect.
"Fortunately, we have the Ancestor's Five Elements Yuan Transformation Art, otherwise it would have been troublesome."
The more Zhang Yunya thought about it, the more frightened she felt, but she didn't know who to talk to about it.
With Master Yan Yun?
What if Master Yan Yun was also infected with the Demonic Insect and is now a member of the Myriad Insects Sect?
According to the " Secret Accounts of the Immortal Cultivation Realm ", the Demonic Insect refined by the sect leader of the Myriad Insects Sect are extremely domineering. Once controlled by the Demonic Insect, one's soul will be unable to control itself and will be completely unable to resist.
Without knowing who was being controlled by the Demonic Insect, she couldn't tell anyone.
If the Heaven and Earth Sect is like this, are other cultivation sects the same?
Is this a sign that the Myriad Insects Sect is about to make a comeback?
It's terrifying to even think about!
"Ancestor, what should I do?" Zhang Yunya murmured.
As soon as she finished speaking, two jade slips appeared out of thin air in front of Zhang Yunya.
Both jade slips were made of dark blue cerium and were first-time surname jade slips.
Zhang Yunya was overjoyed, until the "Ancestor" reappeared, and she quickly picked up a jade slip to examine it.
This jade slip contains a message from the "Ancestor".
The gist is that the leader of the Myriad Insects Sect is secretly causing trouble, and now almost every cultivation sect in the Nine Rings Domain has the Myriad Insects Sect's Shadow.
To avert disaster, one must learn to discern whether another's soul contains Demonic Insect or Demonic Insect eggs.
The other jade slip contains the Myriad Gu Art. Mastering the Myriad Gu Art as soon as possible will reveal the method of identification.
Ling Yi did not specify what Zhang Yunya should do next.
Whether to become the Old Liu or to save the Heaven and Earth Sect is entirely up to Zhang Yunya herself.
After reading this information, Zhang Yunya was overjoyed and immediately grabbed another jade slip, which was indeed the Myriad Gu Art.
Zhang Yunya possessed extraordinary comprehension abilities, and in less than an Shichen, she easily Entry.
They not only found a way to identify the Demonic Insect, but also a way to control Demonic Insect.
Combined with his Five Elements Spiritual Power, he can eliminate the Demonic Insect in other people's souls.
After a brief hesitation, Zhang Yunya made up her mind.
She must stop the Myriad Insects Sect's conspiracy; otherwise, if the Myriad Insects Sect's conspiracy succeeds, it will be a disaster for all the cultivation sects in the Nine Rings Domain.
With that thought in mind, she immediately left her own cave and headed to her the Final Master Yan Yun's cave.
She definitely can't manage on her own, so she needs the sect's help.
However, upon arriving outside her the Final Master's cave, Zhang Yunya hesitated again.
How is she going to explain the origin of these messages?
In particular, the fact that she has cultivated the Five Elements Yuan Transformation Art must not be easily revealed.
Otherwise, if people find out that she possesses Heaven Grade cultivation technique, it could cause her enormous trouble.
" Yunya, why are you lingering at my cave entrance in the middle of the night? Is there some problem with your cultivation?" Zhang Yunya heard her the Final Master's Voice Transmission in her mind.
"Come into the cave and let's talk!"
Zhang Yunya bit her lip and stepped into Yan Yun's cave.
Seeing Zhang Yunya looking preoccupied, Yan Yun smiled and asked, "What's wrong? Worried about tomorrow's competition?"
"No need to worry, no one in the Heaven and Earth Sect dares to harm my Yan Yun's disciple."
" The Final Master!" Zhang Yunya bit her lip, but didn't know how to speak.
Yan Yun also sensed something was wrong, and her face darkened as she asked, "Is it your senior brothers and sisters?"
"Hmph, don't worry, after you return from the Heaven and Earth Secret Realm, your the Final Master won't spare a single one of these wretches."
"That Guo Pengsheng is originally from the Myriad Treasures Chamber of Commerce. He seems honest and kind, but he is actually extremely cunning. Does he really think I don't know that? Zheng Basheng and Yun Xing have been frequently visiting Nine Yang Peak these past few days."
"Their true purpose is probably also for your position as the heir."
"I know all this, and I've given them chances, but unfortunately they didn't cherish them. I will punish them severely later."
Zhang Yunya blinked. Did her Eldest Senior Brother, second senior brother, and third senior sister really do so many things secretly? She really didn't know.
Appearances can be deceiving; there are just too many Old Liu in the Immortal Cultivation Realm.
Why can't everyone just get along peacefully and happily?
After hesitating for a while, Zhang Yunya looked at Yan Yun and said, " The Final Master, may I examine your soul?"
Yan Yun frowned. "Why?"
The soul is the most secretive and vulnerable core of a cultivator. It is never allowed to be viewed by anyone other than someone who knows the cultivator inside and out.
Her disciple actually wanted to examine her soul? This puzzled her greatly.
" The Final Master, do you know anything about the Myriad Insects Sect...?"
Zhang Yunya no longer hesitated and simply told the whole story.
Of course, she couldn't reveal that she had cultivated Heaven -Heaven Grade Heaven Grade techniques and spells, or about the "Ancestor."
He only said that he had a way to deal with the Demonic Insect, but he didn't say what the method was.
"Are you sure?" Yan Yun asked, staring at Zhang Yunya.
" The Final Master, the news is absolutely true. I was unknowingly infected with Demonic Insect before. If it weren't for my special cultivation technique, I would probably be controlled by the Demonic Insect by now."
"Okay!" Yan Yun nodded.
"Ah, the Final Master, you agreed?" Zhang Yunya asked in surprise.
"You are my disciple, so naturally I trust you," Yan Yun said with a smile.
The truth, of course, is not like that. Yan Yun did not believe Zhang Yunya, but rather the Heaven and Earth Sect's Heart-Tempering Formation.
The Heaven and Earth Sect's Heart-Tempering Formation is not simple.
However, there is a prerequisite: the Heart-Tempering Formation must be imprinted on the disciple before they reach the Foundation Establishment Stage.
Once Heart-Tempering Formation, it is difficult to remove for life.
Moreover, it subtly changes the disciples' thinking, which is the most terrifying aspect.
Unfortunately, Yan Yun was unaware that her disciple had a "patriarch" behind her.
By a series of coincidences, not only did the imprint of the Heart-Tempering Formation disappear, but the Demonic Insect also vanished.
Although the mark of the Heart-Tempering Formation is powerful, the Demonic Insect are precisely the nemesis of the Heart-Tempering Formation.
Zhang Yunya's Five Elements Yuan Transformation Art is the nemesis of Demonic Insect.
If Yan Yun knew Zhang Yunya's current situation, she probably wouldn't dare to agree even if she were beaten to death.
Fortunately, Zhang Yunya didn't have any bad intentions.
After Yan Yun released her divine soul, Zhang Yunya used the Myriad Gu Art to examine it and, sure enough, found a Demonic Insect within Yan Yun's divine soul.
" The Final Master!"
"A discovery?"
"Yes, there are Demonic Insect Demonic Insect within the Final Master's soul, but fortunately, they haven't hatched yet!"
Yan Yun's face immediately turned ugly.
Can this be resolved?
" The Final Master, please be patient for a moment!"
Zhang Yunya used the Myriad Gu Art, and soon the Demonic Insect Perception the familiar Summon Aura and gradually separated from Yan Yun's soul.
During this process, Yan Yun felt a sharp, needle-like pain, but she forced herself to endure it.
Not long after, a dark red cesium pea-sized insect egg landed in Zhang Yunya's hand.
At this moment, Yan Yun finally stopped doubting Zhang Yunya, but her face became even uglier.
" The Myriad Insects Sect!" Yan Yun said coldly.
" The Final Master, what should we do next?" Zhang Yunya asked, looking at the Demonic Insect in her hand.
After a moment's hesitation, Yan Yun asked Zhang Yunya, "Could you teach me the Dharma School to lure out the Demonic Insect?"
