Lin Zheyu took a sip of spiritual tea and commented with a smile.
This spiritual tea is of good quality, and when you drink it, it leaves a lingering aroma in your mouth and gives you a refreshing feeling.
Lin Zheyu couldn't help but sigh, Cao Hongchang's taste is not bad.
Seeing Lin Zheyu's expression of enjoyment, Cao Hongchang rolled his eyes angrily.
Although he is a demon cultivator, he is still a reputable Nascent Soul demon cultivator and the leader of the Evil Heart Sect.
But I can't entertain guests with low-quality spiritual tea.
"Since the spiritual tea is good, Taoist friends can drink more, otherwise you won't be able to drink it when you go back."
Cao Hongchang said in a somewhat sinister tone.
"Fellow Taoist, you are worrying too much."
"In a short while, this place will be my territory. How can I not get a drink when fellow Taoists are here?"
Lin Zheyu said with a smile.
Cao Hongchang: "..."
Cao Hongchang, who was in the form of a doll, could not help but widen his eyes slightly when he heard this, showing a humane and speechless expression.
This guy is still annoying as always!
Moreover, the other party seems to be convinced of him. It seems that not only the sect, but also him, the former sect leader, intends to stay together.
My uncle can tolerate it, but my aunt cannot tolerate it!
However, Cao Hongchang felt that he could still endure it.
Between two people chatting.
Lin Zheyu's powerful perception spread, and deep in the sea of consciousness, his spiritual eyes suddenly opened, and he quietly looked at the situation in the Xiexin Sect.
To prevent Cao Hongchang from doing anything secretly.
I accidentally got tricked by the other party.
After observing carefully, Lin Zheyu found that he seemed to be worrying too much.
Except for Cao Hongchang's retreat in the center of the island, which was shrouded in black fog and he couldn't see through it, there were no traps on the entire island.
The island's island protection formation is just a conventional island protection formation.
It takes less than a cup of tea.
Cao Hongchang's true body stepped from the distant sky.
His energy and mental state were the same as when the two met for the first time, and the aura on his body had returned to its peak again.
"Long time no see, fellow Taoist, you are still as charming as ever." Lin Zheyu looked at Cao Hongchang with a smile.
The golden eye swept over Cao Hongchang's body and the puppet, quietly observing the connection between the puppet and the original figure.
Lin Zheyu was quite interested in this method of dividing souls.
His soul, which is so powerful that it has solidified into a physical spirit, is tightly bound by the shackles of heaven. Even if he wants to practice this method of soul separation, he cannot practice it.
Moreover, Lin Zheyu's martial arts path focused all his energy on martial arts training. Martial arts focuses on the physical body and is not good at soul skills.
Lin Zheyu knew nothing about this.
Oh, you can't say that, he still knows a little bit about the secret method of the soul.
Lin Zheyu's secret soul attack technique, the Ten Thousand Dragons Killing God Technique, is quite powerful.
This is a powerful group attack secret method.
If it is used against Nascent Soul monks who do not have soul defense secret treasures, it may not have an unexpected effect.
"Fellow Taoist, you are overly praised."
"If you have cultivated to the level of you and me in the Demon Way, if you don't have any adventures, you will just be lingering on."
Cao Hongchang shook his head and said lightly.
With a wave of his right hand, he put away the puppet he had just created, took a step forward and sat down opposite Lin Zheyu.
"Haha, that's right."
"I heard that in order to survive, many demon cultivators joined the Holy Cult of Pain and became the holy envoys of the Holy Cult of Pain."
"I wonder if you know anything about him?"
Lin Zheyu's eyes flashed slightly and he asked leisurely.
Not only the Holy Sect of Pain, but also these evil sects such as the Jiuyou Sect do not reject demon cultivators.
These cults have special methods that can alleviate the problem of demonic will in demon cultivators.
However, most sects have very high requirements for demon cultivators to join, and they need to have strong faith in the gods and demons they believe in.
The Holy Cult of Pain does not use it.
Therefore, demon cultivators have the largest number of people joining the Holy Cult of Pain.
"Fellow Taoist, are you testing me?"
"Although I am a demon cultivator, I am still different from the group of lunatics from the Holy Sect of Pain who are afraid that the end of the world will not come."
"There is not much difference between joining the Holy Cult of Pain and sinking into the demon's will."
"Don't think that it's okay if the Holy Cult of Pain doesn't require faith. They will do anything to alleviate the demon's will problem in you."
"Over time, you will become a lunatic like them and completely lose yourself."
Cao Hongchang said with a sneer.
Pies will not fall from the sky, there is no free lunch in the world, and none of those messy sects is good.
Joining those sects is not as good as surrendering one's life to sects such as Wei Dynasty and Tiandao Sect that favor righteousness.
However, this is not a good path, so it’s okay not to mention it.
"Fellow Taoist, what you say makes sense. These guys are really crazier than demon cultivators like us."
Lin Zheyu smiled and said.
He secretly observed for a long time and did not sense the slightest aura related to gods and demons on the Evil Heart Sect island.
Moreover, Cao Hongchang’s tone and demeanor didn’t look like he was acting.
It seems that Cao Hongchang's stay here has nothing to do with those cults.
Lin Zheyu was quite afraid of the demon gods that the cults believed in. When he was a warrior, he was targeted by the Holy Cult of Pain because of his special destiny.
Lin Zheyu still hasn't figured out exactly what is so special about him that he will be targeted.
"The spiritual stones promised to my fellow Taoist have been prepared. I wonder when you can start?" Cao Hongchang said directly.
The last time he fought against Lin Zheyu, he consumed a large amount of his Nascent Soul essence, leaving him with only one chance of returning to his peak.
And now, it's the last time.
"Any time."
"Do fellow Taoists plan to do it here?"
Lin Zheyu said with a smile.
His face remained calm, but secretly, his spiritual eyes had been observing Cao Hongchang's every move.
"That won't work here."
Cao Hongchang shook his head and said: "I have already prepared the place. It is in the secret room where I have been in seclusion all year round."
"It's not that I don't trust fellow Taoists, it's just that during treatment, I will fall into a weak and helpless state."
"In that state, if fellow Taoist has ill intentions towards me, I will be helpless to resist."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Therefore, I have made some preparations, just for self-protection, as Taoist friends know."
Cao Hongchang explained.
The two of them didn't know each other very well, they didn't have enough trust, and they both had deep vigilance and wariness in their hearts.
If he didn't explain it, Cao Hongchang was worried that if he chose the location to be held in his own secret room, the other party would worry that it was a trap.
"oh?"
"What fellow Taoist said is reasonable, but Xiao is also worried that fellow Taoist may set a trap. Do you think this is true?"
Lin Zheyu smiled faintly and continued: "To be on the safe side, can I let you check it beforehand?"
"It's natural."
"Fellow Taoist, please come this way."
Cao Hongchang nodded and made a gesture of invitation.
He stood up, moved slightly, and galloped towards the center of Xiexin Island.
Lin Zheyu was performing his Wanli Shenxing Kung Fu, and still had enough energy to follow behind his opponent. His relaxed and carefree look made Cao Hongchang secretly frightened.
'This is... the latent shadow ethereal escape method?!'
'No, not only that, but with a hint of the feeling of a demon flame burning soul crow, he can actually use the great principles contained in this powerful secret method in the escape method!'
'To be able to achieve this level in less than a year, this person's talent is so monstrous!'
Cao Hongchang felt the familiar aura of the technique and was inexplicably shocked.
Whether it was the Demon Flame Soul Burning Crow or the Latent Shadow Escape Technique, when he first practiced it, it took him more than fifty years to reach its peak.
And how long did it take for fellow Taoist Xiao Zhe to obtain the technique?
Could it be that the other party has already mastered the technique?
Cao Hongchang's mood was a little complicated, but he did not ask any questions.
You can guess without asking that with the other party's bad temper, there is a high probability that he will not tell the truth.
The island where the Evil Heart Sect is located is not very big.
With the strength of the two Nascent Soul levels, they arrived at the center of the island in a matter of seconds.
Lin Zheyu had a faint smile on his face, looking enigmatic.
The shock in Cao Hongchang's heart had long since caught his eye.
This was Lin Zheyu's intention.
The purpose is to create an unfathomably powerful image of himself so that Cao Hongchang does not dare to attack him easily.
Among monks, harmony should be valued.
Lin Zheyu still didn't want to take action if he could.
Of course, once he masters the ability to restrain short-distance teleportation, or directly masters short-distance teleportation, he can easily threaten the opponent.
At that time, it should be a different matter.
The two fell outside the black mist, and the mist surged to reveal a dark passage.
The passage is very deep and leads deep underground.
"This is it, Taoist friends, please come in."
Cao Hongchang suppressed the distracting thoughts in his heart and said calmly.
Lin Zheyu nodded slightly and did not rush in.
A strong sense of perception spreads, and he carefully examines the surrounding situation.
Cao Hongchang was also very cooperative. Not only did he not rush, but he actively controlled the black fog to recede, revealing the formation restrictions covering this area.
"The outermost formation is used to defend against external enemies. It has phantom formation capabilities and no means of attack."
"These black fogs are related to my method of promoting Nascent Soul."
"We, the demon cultivators, follow the path of demons. If we want to advance to the Nascent Soul, we need to be like demons and gather demon lairs."
"Human beings cannot condense into a real demon lair."
"So, I used special means to build this area to simulate the demon's lair."
"..."
Cao Hongchang followed Lin Zheyu and walked slowly inside.
As he moved forward, he explained some of the surrounding situations to Lin Zheyu, lowering the other person's vigilance.
In Cao Hongchang's opinion, both of them are demon cultivators at the Yuanying level, and they both know very well how demon cultivators can advance to the Yuanying level.
Moreover, during the treatment later, he needs to open his sea of consciousness and Nascent Soul and let the other party study it. Sooner or later some of his secrets will be exposed.
Therefore, Cao Hongchang did not retain much.
This time, he sincerely cooperated with Lin Zheyu.
"Fellow Taoist is really clever. He was able to simulate the demon's lair and build this stronghold."
Lin Zheyu listened to Cao Hongchang's introduction and praised with a smile.
Cao Hongchang is worthy of being an old guy at the Nascent Soul level among demon cultivators, and he really has something in the study of the demon path.
Just the nest of pseudo-monsters here opened Lin Zheyu's eyes.
"Fellow Taoist, I was joking. I just did this as a last resort."
"The secret method of advancing to the level of Nascent Soul like fellow Taoist disciples is the orthodox path that demon cultivators should take."
A trace of envy flashed in Cao Hongchang's eyes and he said with a smile.
The black passage leading directly to the underground was not long. Under Cao Hongchang's explanation, Lin Zheyu quickly figured out the situation here.
There really isn't much danger, at least not in this passage.
"This is the core secret room."
Cao Hongchang opened the door to the secret room and did not rush in for fear of arousing Lin Zheyu's vigilance.
"It is indeed a pseudo-demon lair built by fellow Taoist. With such a concentration of demonic energy, even the depths of the demon cave are not far behind."
Lin Zheyu felt the rich demonic energy in the secret room and said with a smile.
Looking at the environment in the secret room, he asked curiously.
"The demon lair can breed cannon fodder demons without intelligence. I wonder if the fake lair built by friends has this ability?"
"How can it be!"
Cao Hongchang shook his head.
With a wave of his right hand, densely packed puppets identical to the one that had just welcomed Lin Zheyu emerged from the soil in the secret room.
"Although it doesn't have as powerful an ability as the real demon lair, it still has weaker abilities."
"These puppets are what I rely on to protect myself."
Cao Hongchang confidently pointed to the hundreds of puppets in the secret room and said with a smile.
Among these puppets, there are ten puppets whose aura is above the golden elixir.
Moreover, each puppet has an extremely close connection with each other, forming a powerful combined attack formation.
"Amazing, amazing!"
"With such a formation composed of so many golden elixir puppets, even the powerful ones in the late Nascent Soul stage can compete with each other."
Lin Zheyu became more vigilant, and the Hunyuan Pool in his body was ready to be used at any time.
As long as Cao Hongchang makes the slightest move, he will immediately leave Hunyuanchi.
"Fellow Taoist, there is no need to worry, please look here..."
Cao Hongchang saw the fear in Lin Zheyu's heart.
He smiled slightly, waved his right hand gently, and the fog that shrouded the surroundings quickly dissipated, revealing the true situation in the secret room.
Lin Zheyu narrowed his eyes slightly, and activated his heavenly eyes in the sea of consciousness to the extreme, seizing the opportunity to study Cao Hongchang's pseudo-demon lair.
This opportunity is very rare.
Lin Zheyu has not been able to encounter the real demon lair, but it is quite good to be able to study the fake demon lair.
"Although it doesn't have the ability to breed cannon-fodder demons like a real demon lair, the lair I built can be used to sacrifice puppets."
"Every puppet that is sacrificed from my lair has an extremely close connection with the lair."
"However, this kind of connection can only exist in the pseudo-demon lair. After leaving it, you will be a separate individual."
"And without the assistance of the pseudo-demon lair, with the strength of my spiritual consciousness, I would not be able to control so many powerful puppets at the same time."
"That is to say..."
Cao Hongchang exposed some secrets of the pseudo-demon lair in exchange for Lin Zheyu's trust.
He was not sure that he could capture the opponent alive and force the opponent to help him solve the problem of the erosion of the demon's will.
This is the only last resort to be made.
"Even so, this is quite remarkable."
Lin Zheyu praised sincerely.
He rarely admires a person.
But now, Cao Hongchang came up with such a genius idea and realized it, simulating a fake nest, which made Lin Zheyu admire him very much.
This guy is really a genius!
No wonder he can cultivate the Demonic Way to the level of Nascent Soul.
Hearing Lin Zheyu's praise, Cao Hongchang smiled lightly, with a proud look on his face.
The idea and conception of this pseudo-demon lair is one of his most proud masterpieces.
Relying on the pseudo-demon lair, Cao Hongchang broke through the hard barrier of the golden elixir level of the demon monks and was promoted to the level of Nascent Soul.
"It's here, no need to go any further."
"If fellow Taoist is unfavorable to me, then before I die, I can use the puppets in the lair to seriously injure or even kill fellow Taoist."
"What do you think, fellow Taoist?"
Cao Hongchang looked at Lin Zheyu and said lightly.
If Lin Zheyu had no ill intentions towards him, then Cao Hongchang would not be stupid enough to die together with him.
The longer he lives, the less Cao Hongchang wants to die.
He also wants to go further on the path of demons and enter an unprecedented level of divine transformation.
This is Cao Hongchang's huge ambition.
"Then stay here."
Lin Zheyu nodded, Cao Hongchang had shown enough sincerity.
When Cao Hongchang heard this, he felt slightly relieved.
He was really worried that his request to proceed here would arouse the other party's resentment and vigilance, so he was unwilling to cooperate.
In other places, Cao Hongchang did not feel safe.
After all, that means completely letting go of the most important sea of consciousness and Nascent Soul to other monks, and handing over one's lifeline to others.
Life and death are all under the control of the other party.
If the other party is a respectable and upright monk, you can still consider it.
But the other party is a demon cultivator!
As a demon cultivator, Cao Hongchang knows a lot about demon cultivators.
It was because he knew him too well that he would not trust Lin Zheyu and would not dare to put his life in his control.
