Law Sect

As it turned out, a few years ago, several low-level demon beasts had attacked some of the human cities.

These attacks were primarily carried out by Level 1 demon beasts, with occasional appearances of Level 2 ones.

However, there were no sightings of Level 3 demon beasts or Level 4 Demon Kings.

Despite this, these attacks had still caused some casualties among the human population.

Similar incidents had occurred three or four times so far.

Jiang Chengxuan quickly formed a hypothesis in his mind.

It seemed that over the past century, the Demon Race had grown restless and was using these attacks to probe for certain weaknesses.

The repeated nature of these incidents suggested that they might have discovered something valuable from their probing.

Otherwise, similar incidents wouldn’t have happened three or four times in a row.

However, this was clearly not what Jiang Chengxuan paid the most attention to.

What really caught his attention was another situation.

According to Jiang Renyi, in the most recent demon beast activity, they had encountered a very peculiar type of demon beast.

These creatures exuded an immensely evil aura and possessed a certain undying ability.

Even when beheaded or bisected, they continued to move.

Only through the use of fierce spells like flames and lightning, or similar Dharma weapons, could they be truly eliminated.

Almost subconsciously, Jiang Chengxuan immediately thought of what he had foreseen that day.

As well as the person he had cursed to death that day.

Could it be that this matter was related to them?

At the thought of this, Jiang Chengxuan’s expression could not help but turn solemn.

“Husband, if I am not mistaken, the beasts Renyi speaks of are no longer true demon beasts.

They seem to have been corrupted by something extremely evil.

I believe calling them ‘demon monsters’ would be more appropriate.”

At that moment, Shen Ruyan’s voice suddenly came from behind Jiang Chengxuan and Jiang Renyi.

“Wife, you’re out of seclusion!”

Jiang Chengxuan exclaimed with surprise and joy, turning to Shen Ruyan.

Shen Ruyan nodded with a smile.

“Yes, I have just emerged.”

Jiang Renyi also hurriedly greeted her with respect.

Shen Ruyan nodded slightly and then turned back to the topic at hand, looking at Jiang Chengxuan.

“Husband, what do you think?”

“I think you are right.”

Jiang Chengxuan nodded in agreement.

“If what Renyi says is true, then these demon beasts are indeed no longer mere beasts but have become monsters.”

At this point, Jiang Chengxuan looked at Jiang Renyi and asked,

“By the way, did you manage to capture any of them alive?

If so, bring them to me immediately.”

Hearing this, Jiang Renyi’s expression turned into a wry smile as he shook his head,

“Granduncle, we haven’t captured any alive.

It’s not for lack of trying, but as soon as we capture and restrain them, they self-destruct, turning into a pile of ashes.”

“Oh? Is that so?”

Jiang Chengxuan immediately frowned.

He and Shen Ruyan exchanged glances.

The self-destructive nature of these monsters further confirmed their previous speculation.

“It seems we can only wait until they appear again and investigate in person,” Jiang Chengxuan said, looking at Shen Ruyan, who nodded in agreement.

“For now, that seems to be the only option,” she replied.

“By the way, does the Hidden Sword Palace know about this?” Jiang Chengxuan suddenly asked.

Jiang Renyi immediately nodded and replied.

“Yes, they are aware.

After all, when these creatures attacked our human cities, they didn’t only target cities under our Jiang family’s jurisdiction.”

“I see.”

Jiang Chengxuan nodded slightly.

“You may leave for now. If there’s any new development, inform us immediately.”

“Yes, Granduncle.”

Jiang Renyi immediately agreed respectfully.

Once Jiang Renyi’s figure had completely disappeared from Xuanming Peak, Jiang Chengxuan turned back to Shen Ruyan, “Wife, I suspect that the Demon Race might now be in league with those beings.”

“Um, are you saying?”

Shen Ruyan’s beautiful eyes narrowed.

Jiang Chengxuan nodded, “Exactly. Otherwise, the emergence of these demon monsters cannot be explained.

Only by joining forces can there be a possibility of those demon monsters being born.”

At this point, Jiang Chengxuan’s eyes suddenly became a little deep.

“It seems the Demon Race is really set on going down this dark path.”

The couple then shifted their conversation to their gains from the recent seclusion.

Jiang Chengxuan quickly learned that during this time, Shen Ruyan not only upgraded her intrinsic True Treasure, the Five Lightning Immortal Slayer, to Level 6 Pure Yang True Treausre, but also advanced her cultivation to the second level of Soul Formation.

Additionally, she had comprehended a new divine power, the Yin-Yang Polarity Lightning Sword, a divine power comparable in power to the Five Elements Divine Lightning.

While the couple was exchanging their insights from the seclusion, a series of tragic screams echoed within the Celestial Law Sect in the state of Tong.

Inside the entire state of Tong, there were hundreds of twisted and eerie black shadows moving through the air, on the ground, inside houses, and even along walls.

Eventually, these twisted shadows swarmed into the noses, ears, mouths, and eyes of the disciples in the state of Tong who were screaming in agony.

In an instant, the cultivators in Celestial Law Sect who were howling in pain stopped.

The disciples’ eyes turned pitch black, like a deep abyss.

On the surface of their bodies, there were black pustules that looked like tumors. They rose and fell, as if something was about to break out of their skin.

Inside the ancestral hall of Celestial Law Sect, the four current Nascent Soul cultivators of the sect faced a figure shrouded in a cloak.

Their expressions twisted with fury, one of them demanded, “Who are you?

Why have you brought such calamity upon my sect?”

The cloaked figure replied with a faint smile,

“No particular reason. I just find that using your sect members as hosts suits my needs better.

After all, your expertise in puppetry can help us conceal many things and buy us some time.

That’s all.”

“What?”

The three ancestors of the Celestial Law Sect were shocked.

One of them stared at the cloaked figure in disbelief, “You… Who are you?”

“Hmm, figured something out, have you?”

The cloaked figure narrowed his eyes, then grinned.

“It doesn’t matter. As long as I control you today, this matter will not be spread.

To me, as long as I can buy some time, that will be enough.”

As he spoke, countless black threads shot out from his hands.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh—

These threads were somewhere between tangible and intangible.

Of the four Nascent Soul cultivators of Celestial Law Sect, only the first and third ancestors managed to react in time, swapping places with their instrinsic puppets.

A series of pops could be heard.

Their puppet duplicates exploded into countless fragments, but the second and fourth ancestors let out a piercing scream.

The hearts of the first and third ancestors sank.

Turning around, they saw that the bodies of the second and fourth ancestors were now entangled in dense black threads, with black lines spreading over their skin, moving up from their legs to their arms, abdomen, and chest.

In the blink of an eye, the lines had even reached their shoulders.

“Arghhhh!”

The two screamed as if undergoing unbearable torture, with bulging tumors appearing on their bodies.

The sight was grotesque, terrifying, and bizarre.

“You’re courting death!”

The third ancestor roared furiously.

In the next moment, a flaming sword flew towards the cloaked figure, while the first ancestor was not idle either.

He reached out and formed a hand seal.

In the next moment, three immensely majestic figures appeared behind the cloaked figure.

With the power to shatter the earth, three gigantic fists plummeted towards the cloaked figure’s head.

These were three puppets at Level 5.

“Humph…”

Facing the attacks of the two, the cloaked figure merely chuckled in response.

His figure seemed to turn ethereal, and both the flaming flying sword and the attacks from the Level 5 puppets passed right through him without causing any damage.

“What?”

The first and third ancestors were shocked.

At this moment, an extremely dangerous feeling surged in their hearts.

Before they could react, several Level 5 puppets suddenly appeared in front of them.

BOOM!

Their formidable attacks struck, causing the defensive treasures of the first and third ancestors to shake violently, their spiritual light rapidly dimming.

What chilled them to the bone was the realization that the attacking puppets were the Level 5 puppets of the second and fourth ancestors!

“Die!”

At the same time.

The second and fourth ancestors unleashed their instrinsic true treasures — a revolving wheel and a treasure pagoda.

Both shone brilliantly, pressing down directly towards the first and third ancestors.

“Junior Brothers, you…”

The first ancestor began to speak but suddenly his pupils constricted.

He and the third ancestor realized that the eyes of the second and fourth ancestors had turned pitch black, like ink, exuding a cold, sinister, evil, and eerie aura.

Even they had been…

Just as this thought flashed through his mind, the attacks of the two sides collided again.

Rumble!

The hall shook, and the arrays’ luminous halos flickered rapidly.

Clearly, the attacks of the four were pushing the defensive limits of the array in the hall.

At this critical moment, while the first and third ancestors were engaged in battle with the second and fourth, they failed to notice that two shadows, identical to their own, had suddenly risen from their feet.. These shadows stood upright and adhered to their backs!
