Chapter 1276 The Mermaid: Her Beauty Shine Like the Tide (2)
A middle-aged cultivator, dressed in a moon-white Daoist robe, with a lean face and eyes as deep as a still pool, exuded a calm and vast spiritual energy, indicating he was at the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm.
"Master." Su Muyan bowed respectfully.
The visitor was none other than Bai Wu, the sect leader of the Qingxuan Sect.
His gaze swept over Su Muyan's injuries, and his brows furrowed slightly: "Where is that old devil Ye Luo? I just learned from others that you had been captured and was preparing to come and rescue you when I received your message. I even said that you were really impulsive and risked your life, but I didn't expect that you would actually escape from Ye Luo's lair on your own."
He tossed a bottle of pills to Su Muyan.
Su Muyan accepted the pill.
"This disciple is incompetent and was captured by the demonic cultivators, causing Master great worry. Fortunately, I had anticipated the recent rampant activity of demonic cultivators and was not completely incapacitated. This disciple joined forces with other fellow Daoists and broke his blood sacrifice formation."
Su Muyan lowered his head and said, "He has been lured into a trap and cannot escape for the time being, but with his cultivation level, breaking the trap is only a matter of time. This disciple begs Master to come forward and remove the demon. This is the specific location."
Su Muyan displayed a map in the air.
Bai Wu nodded, a cold glint in his eyes: "If Ye Luo wants to use the Blood Sacrifice Array to improve his cultivation, he won't give up. If he fails this time, he'll come back again. We can't let him live any longer. Go back to the sect to heal your injuries, and while you're at it, inform the elders about this matter and have them strengthen the sect's defenses."
He paused, and three figures slowly emerged behind him, all of them Golden Core cultivators. "Leave this to us."
"Yes, Master." Su Muyan responded, then added, "We were able to break the formation this time thanks to the help of a rogue cultivator, Fellow Daoist Chunxing. Her water-based magic is exquisite, and her mastery of formations is extremely high. It's a real pity that she doesn't want to join a sect..."
A hint of surprise flashed in Bai Wu's eyes, then he smiled and said, "If you don't want to, then don't. There are many rogue cultivators and extraordinary individuals in the cultivation world. Since you have a relationship with her, you can meet her again in the future if fate allows."
Su Muyan agreed, turned around, and flew towards Qingxuan Sect, stepping on the sword light.
Bai Wu watched his figure disappear into the horizon before saying to the three behind him, "Let's go and meet that old demon Ye Luo. The blood sacrifice formation has been broken, and his spiritual power has been greatly reduced. It's the perfect time to kill him. We can't let him advance to the Nascent Soul stage."
Four figures transformed into streaks of light and sped towards the Demon Cave, leaving behind the still-bright moonlight above the hill.
Li Guang breathed a sigh of relief when she confirmed that Su Muyan had not used any tracking techniques on her.
If these disciples from major sects really try to kill her and steal her treasures, she will make enemies in the process of retaliating.
She found a safe place, sorted through the demonic cultivator's storage ring, checked everything, and repeatedly confirmed that there were no traps left by the demonic cultivator before happily sitting down.
This Foundation Establishment stage demonic cultivator has been working for Ye Luo, and it is estimated that he has killed many cultivators and seized their treasures for himself.
Demonic cultivators are not demons. Most demonic cultivators started as ordinary cultivators. They simply practiced demonic arts and relied on demonic energy, soul extraction and refining, resentment, and the essence of living beings to improve their cultivation. They usually mingled in the cultivation world and needed to disguise themselves as ordinary cultivators.
Inside the storage ring, aside from some unusable cultivation techniques and magical artifacts used by demonic cultivators, there was a large quantity of spirit stones and other items that could be used.
They had about three thousand mid-grade spirit stones and ten thousand low-grade spirit stones, which was quite a lot.
She also has quite a few magical artifacts, but she won't use them directly; she'll sell them on the black market.
She could keep some of the materials for crafting talismans and formations.
There are also some pills that you can keep for now.
For the next two weeks, Li Guang focused on cultivation, as her cultivation level was too low and she needed to improve it quickly.
With the help of spirit stones and a spirit-gathering array, she finally broke through to the eighth level of Qi Refining.
Half a month later, in Xuan Yan City.
As soon as Li Guang stepped through the city gate, she was drawn by a noisy discussion.
