Becoming an immortal against the will of heaven

These three were none other than Chen Tian, Hua Wanting, and Jia Yan, who had emerged from the Sacred Devil Cave cloaked in the Feathered Veil.

Jia Yan, at this moment, looked exactly as he had in life, standing vividly behind Chen Tian.

However, upon closer inspection, one could still discern the emptiness in his eyes, a vacant stare devoid of any vitality.

This was the completed Demonic Puppet!

After appearing, Chen Tian pondered for a moment, then suddenly turned to Jia Yan and instructed, "Alright, return to your own place for now. I will summon you when I need you in the future."

Upon hearing Chen Tian's command, a glimmer of light momentarily returned to Jia Yan's originally lifeless pupils. He bowed expressionlessly to Chen Tian and then transformed into a streak of light, flying towards his own cave.

Watching Jia Yan's departing figure, Chen Tian nodded in satisfaction.

"The Demonic Puppetry technique is truly wondrous, capable of refining the deceased Jia Yan to be virtually indistinguishable from a living person, reaching a level of divine craftsmanship."

At this moment, Hua Wanting, who had been standing beside him, covered her mouth and giggled, saying, "Congratulations, Senior Brother Chen, on obtaining this Demonic Puppet with strength comparable to the early stage of the Spirit Guiding Realm."

Chen Tian smiled upon hearing this, and said calmly, "This is also thanks to Junior Sister Hua's strong assistance. Rest assured, I will definitely not forget my promise to give you three Blood Spirit Pills. Once I have gathered them, I will immediately send them to you."

"Senior Brother Chen is too kind. Does Junior Sister not trust you?" Hua Wanting giggled charmingly, then, with a glint in her eyes, she cupped her fist and said, "If Senior Brother Chen has no other instructions, then Junior Sister must return to continue cultivating. Let us bid farewell here."

Chen Tian smiled and nodded, saying, "Very well. Next time, I will definitely seek out Junior Sister Hua again for a good chat."

"Hehe, then Junior Sister will look forward to Senior Brother Chen's arrival. Farewell for now."

Hua Wanting smiled enchantingly once more, then her body transformed into a streak of pink light, shooting towards the west.

Chen Tian had relied on this orb to break through the secret keys in front of the Sacred Devil Cave and escape.

If Chen Tian was not mistaken, this orb was the array key that the Ghost Dao Sect's array master had deciphered, which Han Wuming had mentioned to him before.

Chen Tian remembered Han Wuming saying that this key had once been lost, but why it appeared in Zhan Tianlong's hands was unknown.

However, Chen Tian believed that Zhan Tianlong must have also used this orb to enter and exit the Sacred Devil Cave.

After pondering for a while, Chen Tian put away the orb, intending to walk back.

However, at this moment, Chen Tian's heart suddenly paused, and his movements stopped accordingly.

Chen Tian turned around to look in the direction Hua Wanting had left, and pondered, "If Zhan Tianlong entered the Sacred Devil Cave with this orb, then how did Hua Wanting get in?"

Chen Tian suddenly remembered that from beginning to end, Hua Wanting had not told Chen Tian how she entered the Sacred Devil Cave, and Chen Tian had forgotten to ask.

"Could it be that besides this orb, Hua Wanting has mastered other methods to enter the Sacred Devil Cave?" Chen Tian frowned, murmuring in his heart with doubt.

Chen Tian suddenly felt that Hua Wanting seemed to be hiding many secrets.

Especially the story she told him earlier about her younger brother.

At first, Chen Tian did not want to oppose Hua Wanting, so he did not delve into the truth of her story.

However, now that he calmed down, Chen Tian suddenly felt that there were many doubts in it. First, why didn't Hua Wanting send her younger brother back in time, but continued to stay in the Ghost Dao Sect? Didn't she know it was dangerous to do so?

Second, according to Hua Wanting's account, her younger brother was killed by Zhan Tianlong, and the reason why she stayed in the Nether Ghost Sect was to find an opportunity to kill Zhan Tianlong.

But why didn't she act earlier or later, but chose to act when Chen Tian appeared?

Both of these points were too unreasonable.

Chen Tian couldn't help but wonder if the story was true.

At the same time, Chen Tian also realized that this woman, Hua Wanting, seemed to have many other secrets.

After thinking for a while, Chen Tian sighed a long breath and smiled lightly to himself, "Forget it, no matter what, Hua Wanting, at least for now, has not shown any intention of opposing me, so there's no need to think about these questions, right?"

Thinking this way, Chen Tian stopped thinking about it, and with a flash of his figure, he disappeared from the spot.

… … … … … … … … … … … …

Inside Han Wuming's hall in the Ghost Dao Sect!

More than a year had passed since Chen Tian entered the Sacred Devil Cave for closed-door cultivation.

During this time, Han Wuming had been living a very comfortable life. Without Chen Tian's restraint, Han Wuming seemed to have returned to his previous unrestrained life.

At this moment, Han Wuming was lying on a pear blossom wood carved armchair, leisurely swaying back and forth, comfortably stretching and saying, "A year has passed, I wonder how that kid is now? But wanting to break through to the Spirit Guiding Realm is not that simple. I think that kid has failed this time too. And if he can't break through to the Spirit Guiding Realm in his entire life, then my good days will truly come."

Han Wuming had really been aggrieved during this time. To think that he, a dignified expert of the Transformation Spring Realm, one of the four elders of the Ghost Dao Sect, had to listen to the orders of a little brat and even serve him as his master.

And this kid was not easy to fool, being extremely shrewd. Any slight negligence would be discovered by him.

Therefore, Han Wuming had been feeling extremely depressed all these years.

But fortunately, such days were coming to an end. As long as Chen Tian still had not broken through to the Spirit Guiding Realm, then he would soon die of old age.

And by that time, Han Wuming would be able to regain his freedom.

However, during this last period of time, Han Wuming still had to be more diligent. After all, due to the existence of the Slave Restriction, no matter what Chen Tian's cultivation was, as long as he had a thought, he could kill Han Wuming.

So Han Wuming had already decided that after Chen Tian left seclusion, he must continue to serve him diligently.

Anyway, there were only a few decades left, and Han Wuming could still endure it.

Han Wuming calculated the days and found that there were still half a month left until the time he had agreed with Chen Tian.

So at this moment, Han Wuming was not in a hurry, continuing to lie on the armchair and enjoy his last leisurely time, and then go to pick up Chen Tian.

However, at this moment, a golden rainbow flew into the hall at a very fast speed.

This made Han Wuming, who was originally looking content, suddenly become terrified, and he roared angrily, "Which ignorant bastard dares to disturb me?"
