Profound Yin Soul-Locking Paper Formation!

Supreme Simplicity Sect.

Yang Yang arrived in Supreme Simplicity City and notified Dongfang Bai, who arrived quickly. The two did not exchange many words, as Dongfang Bai was now the head of a sect and his whereabouts were closely watched, so it was better to keep a low profile.

Afterwards, Dongfang Bai returned to the Supreme Simplicity Sect and formally examined the items his master had given him.

He received an identity token, which would allow him to communicate directly with his master and other fellow disciples, as well as a Devil Soul Fruit.

He didn't rush to eat the Devil Soul Fruit, but instead used his identity token to contact his master first.

Dongfang Bai: "Master."

Lin Ye: "Dongfang Bai, have you gotten everything?"

Dongfang Bai: "Master, Fourth Junior Brother has already given the items to me."

Lin Ye: "Dongfang Bai, do you want to come back? If you don't want to be the sect leader of the Supreme Simplicity Sect, then come back."

After pondering for a moment, Dongfang Bai replied, "Master, I'd better stay in the Supreme Simplicity Sect. I can provide intelligence for the sect, and the Supreme Simplicity Sect has connections with the Supreme Yin Sect. Perhaps I can even help you in the future."

Seeing that Dongfang Bai wanted to stay at the Supreme Simplicity Sect, Lin Ye didn't bring up the matter again. "If you need anything, remember to tell your master."

"Yes, Master," Dongfang Bai replied.

After losing contact with his master, Dongfang Bai chatted with his younger sister, Dongfang Rou, for a while.

Only then did he swallow the Devil Soul Fruit and prepare to cultivate.

At this moment, feeling his soul growing stronger and his comprehension improving, he began to cultivate the Demonic Shadow Ten Arms Technique.

The Demonic Shadow Ten Arms Technique is the only Divine Ability Technique he currently knows. As for the Supreme Yin Divine Sword, he has not yet begun to formally cultivate it, and the compatibility between the Supreme Yin Divine Sword and him is actually not high, not as good as the Demonic Shadow Ten Arms Technique. Therefore, he naturally wants to focus on cultivating the Demonic Shadow Ten Arms Technique.

Black-Yellow Sect.

Each disciple consumed the Devil Soul Fruit and diligently cultivated Devil Soul Fruit Divine Ability Technique with its help. Moreover, with their souls strengthened, the effects of cultivating other Divine Ability Technique in the future would be much better.

Before we knew it, a month had passed.

"Ding! Congratulations, host! Disciple Dongfang Bai has successfully cultivated the Demonic Shadow Ten Arms Technique to the Lesser Completion level. The host has received tenfold feedback, and the Demonic Shadow Arm Technique has been cultivated to the Greater Completion level."

"Ding! Congratulations, host! Disciple Ye Chen has successfully cultivated the Heartless Demon Saber to the Lesser Completion stage. The host has received tenfold feedback, and the Heartless Demon Saber has been cultivated to the Greater Completion stage."

With the successive mastery of various Divine Ability Technique, coupled with the breakthroughs in the cultivation of several disciples within the past month, his cultivation, after a tenfold boost, has broken through to the Fifth Layer of the Martial Saint Realm. Moreover, his physical body is much stronger, and his strength is far greater than it was a month ago.

As for the Golden Core True Person from the Divine Paper Sect, he no longer took him seriously, but he wasn't in a hurry to deal with him either.

The Chu Kingdom.

The Imperial Palace.

Qu Ce lived a comfortable life during this time, with many women serving him, but he was in a bad mood because there was still no information about the person who killed Qu Fu.

"The Chu Kingdom family and those sects are all too useless; we can't count on them. It seems we have to execute the second plan."

Immediately afterwards, Qu Ce came to see the Chu Emperor again.

"Senior, we have been trying our best, but there is still no news." The Chu Emperor said, his head bowed and his voice trembling.

"Useless!" Qu Ce cursed angrily, then ordered, "I need you to find 100 women born in the yin year, yin month, and yin hour, and bring them back to me."

"This..."

Based on Qu Ce's request, the Chu Emperor guessed that the fate of these 100 women born in the year, month, and hour of the yin was bound to be unfortunate, and that they must have been subjected to some kind of Evil Method.

"Senior, if I do this, what if the Martial Alliance finds out..."

He planned to use the Martial Alliance to intimidate this Golden Core True Person. Even Golden Core True Person was nothing more than an ant in the face of the Martial Alliance. Previously, Qu Ce had only asked them to help find someone, which did not violate the rules of the Martial Alliance. However, if they used Evil Method, the Martial Alliance would be able to intervene.

"Martial Alliance!"

Qu Ce snorted coldly. Since he dared to do this, he must have thought of a foolproof plan.

"Go ahead and do it, Martial Alliance. I'll handle it. If you don't, you know what will happen." An invisible killing intent enveloped Chu Emperor, as if if Chu Emperor didn't do it, then another Chu Emperor would have to be replaced.

"I'll do it."

The Chu Emperor agreed.

Subsequently, the Chu Emperor dispatched many people to search for the person born in the year, hour, and month of the Yin (a supernatural occurrence). The people of the Bianjing Martial Alliance branch had been keeping an eye on the Golden Core True Person in the palace. Upon learning of the royal family's major actions, they speculated that this Golden Core True Person was probably about to use some kind of Evil Method.

At this moment, after discussing the Great Grandmaster Jiang Yi, Li Xishang, and Yao Yun from the Martial Alliance branch made a decision.

"Report this matter to higher authorities."

They planned to use the communication array of the Martial Alliance branch to transmit a message, informing the Martial Alliance headquarters of the Hundred Nations of the Eastern Domain about the matter, and requesting that a Golden Core True Person be dispatched to investigate.

Just as they were about to do so, paper figures began to appear on the surrounding walls.

"Oh no, it's a paper figure! That person is Golden Core True Person from the Divine Paper Sect!"

Just as Jiang Yi was about to activate the Martial Alliance branch's formation to suppress these paper figures, a Martial Saint- level paper figure appeared on her body. The paper figure's right hand gripped her neck, but it did not kill her.

Killing Great Grandmaster of the Martial Alliance branch and destroying a Martial Alliance branch—even if Qu Ce were incredibly bold, he wouldn't dare to do such a thing. If the Martial Alliance were to investigate thoroughly, the Divine Paper Sect would be in deep trouble.

He could easily control the people at the Martial Alliance branch for a few days, then use Secret Method to erase their memories of that time. Once everything was settled, he could leave, and the problem would be solved.

Even afterward, when they realized their memory was faulty and tried to report it, they couldn't find out his identity, let alone trace it back to the Divine Paper Sect.

Soon, Qu Ce's Martial Saint- level paper doll clones completely controlled the three Great Grandmaster, using illusion magic to control them. Each of them had a Martial Saint- level paper doll controlling them at all times.

"Next, we need to find 100 women born in the yin year, yin month, and yin hour, and set up Profound Yin Soul-Locking Paper Formation at the place where Fu'er died. Combined with the broken Talisman Seed, this will be enough to capture the other party's aura and thus lock their location. Unless the other party's cultivation level exceeds the Golden Core stage, they will not be able to block the detection of the Profound Yin Soul-Locking Paper Formation."

Qu Ce estimated that with the capabilities of the Chu Kingdom, it wouldn't take more than a few days to gather these 100 women.

Supreme Simplicity Sect.

After Dongfang Bai became the sect leader of the Supreme Simplicity Sect, he also gained control of the Supreme Simplicity Sect's intelligence and kept an eye on the royal family. He often chatted with his master and sister and knew that his master had killed a Martial Saint, who was from the Martial Saint Divine Paper Sect. The Golden Core True Person was from the Divine Paper Sect.

Therefore, he naturally wanted to know the movements of the Golden Core True Person of the Divine Paper Sect.

"Is the royal family's search for women born in the year, month, and hour of the Yin (auspicious) a requirement of that Golden Core True Person?"

He immediately transmitted this information to his master Lin Ye, using his identity token.
