"Senior brother, second senior brother has been gone for several days without returning. Has he encountered any danger?"

Just as Chen Daoxuan and Tang Youran were inspecting the veins in the cave, two men sneaked up on them.

On the path of demonic cultivation, although they are beings that can be killed by anyone in this world, they are no different from ordinary people and ordinary cultivators in normal times. They also wear long robes, have delicate features, and carry swords or other Law Weapons at their waists.

Only when they take action will their dark red blood qi be exposed.

"Your second senior brother is already in the early stage of Gold Core. As far as I know, the nearest county to this place is Qingyang, controlled by Chen Daoxuan, who is only at the Foundation Building stage. This is just the periphery and there are no powerful demonic beasts here. Your second senior brother wouldn't..."

The leading man had an old and haggard face, with white hair and a slightly stooped body. He walked with a trembling gait and occasionally coughed.

Just as he was halfway through his sentence...

The two men had already walked out of the forest, and their faces changed drastically. They saw a scene of devastation in front of them, with a corpse that had been three-quarters devoured. Although it was covered in blood and extremely gruesome, the face was still clear.

"Second brother?"

"Second senior brother?"

The two hurried forward.

"No! There is the aura of a demonic beast here, and it has already reached the Gold Core stage. This is just the outskirts of the mountain range. How could there be a Gold Core stage demonic beast here?"

"Could there be some treasure here?"

The old man's face turned grave as he stood up.

These three people grew up together since childhood, cultivating in the same sect. Later, when the sect was destroyed, they became Independent Cultivators wandering in the world. However, their talents were average, making it difficult for them to make progress on the path of cultivation.

When their lifespan was nearing its end, they chose demonic cultivation.

Demonic cultivators were despised by the world, and the three of them were well aware of this. But for the sake of survival, they didn't care.

"Senior brother, are you saying that there are other treasures around here?"

The other person's eyes lit up.

"This treasure should not be of high grade, otherwise the demonic beast guarding this place would not be at the Gold Core stage."

The old man looked around and suddenly noticed a continuous flow of spiritual energy coming from a distant cave.

"It's actually a spiritual stone vein?!"

The two were first shocked, then overjoyed.

"I suppose that demonic beast lives in this vein, absorbing the spiritual energy from it to reach the Gold Core stage."

"Second brother must have discovered the vein and happened to encounter a fierce battle with the demonic beast."

"Perhaps there will be divine-grade spiritual stones inside. I've heard that the True Qi inside divine-grade spiritual stones can prolong one's lifespan. Our lifespans might greatly increase."

The two had already forgotten that their former senior brother had died tragically under their feet. Their minds were now filled with excitement.

"Miss Tang, do you know these two individuals?"

Suddenly, Chen Daoxuan's voice appeared out of thin air, startling the two.

Chen Daoxuan and Tang Youran walked side by side as they slowly emerged from the cave.

Chen Daoxuan asked this question suddenly because Tang Youran's expression was not right.

"I do."

Tang Youran's expression changed. If she were facing someone else, she would definitely lie, but when facing Chen Daoxuan, Tang Youran pondered for a moment and decided to tell the truth. "These two are my eldest brother's followers, Independent Cultivators recruited by my eldest brother! If my eldest brother didn't know that they are demonic cultivators, it would be fine, but if he knew..."

"I didn't expect such a small place to be so lively. The most intelligent third princess of the empire, Chen Daoxuan, the controller of Qingyang, has actually gathered here at the same time."

"It seems that my two brothers are about to prosper."

The old man regained his composure, and his face was instantly covered with densely packed strange red patterns, like a spider web. His previously stooped body swelled up like an inflated balloon.

But after swelling up...

The flesh of his body decayed, his skin peeled off, revealing the meat and blood vessels inside, looking extremely terrifying.

This is the price of demonic cultivation.

"Third brother, set up the Heaven-sealing Formation. Today, I will refine these two people into puppets!"

"At that time, we can use these two people to access endless resources."

The old man's voice resounded like a bronze bell.

Without saying a word, the man behind him waved his hand, and a black flag stained with blood flew into the air, rooting itself in eight directions. In an instant, it enveloped the entire world, becoming an invisible burden.

Inside, there was a dark aura, and even ghosts and spirits could be seen wandering in the space.

But these were not real ghosts.

They were the endless resentment of the people whose blood was drained and refined into the flag by the two of them.

"Gold Core perfection?"

Chen Daoxuan furrowed his brows slightly, but soon relaxed them.

Although the old man had reached Gold Core perfection, he had forcibly absorbed the blood of others in a demonic way, resulting in a chaotic foundation. Moreover, the old man's consciousness was obviously affected by many factors, becoming extremely manic. If he were a solid and steady cultivator on the path to Gold Core perfection, Chen Daoxuan would truly have to avoid his sharpness.

But facing such a floating fellow, Chen Daoxuan still had seven or eight points of confidence!

The old man took the initiative to attack, and his decaying body stretched out palm after palm, each one extremely withered and stained with green ghost fire.

There were even faint images of heads on the palms.

Each head was screaming in pain.

No wonder demonic cultivators were rejected by heaven and earth and despised by all cultivators. Their cultivation methods were too cruel!

The Demon Suppression True Technique instantly activated. This technique followed the path of extreme yang and extreme firmness in heaven and earth, making it the most effective against demonic cultivators. The three dantians in Chen Daoxuan's body madly circulated, countless pure yang True Qi surged out, and the Qiankun Sword was held in his hand as he swung it down!

Swish!

A brilliant light instantly illuminated the dark space, tearing apart countless ghosts. Chen Daoxuan directly cut off the three palms!

A purple phoenix appeared above Chen Daoxuan's head, opening its mouth and spewing out purple flames.

The formation trembled!

Chen Daoxuan did not hold back and took a step forward. The sword was held in his left hand, his right fist clenched, and he fiercely punched out. The immense True Qi energy instantly compressed the space, and the terrifying True Qi, containing the essence of extreme yang and extreme firmness, surged out!

"Ah!"

The old man let out a painful scream. For a demonic cultivator, the essence of yang was like a corrosive poison. The formation instantly shattered!

Chen Daoxuan sighed inwardly.

He thought this old man would be strong, but in reality, although the old man had reached Gold Core perfection, his lifespan was far from matching his strength.

These guys really used all means to extend their lifespan!

"Damn it!"

The old man's body instantly returned to its old state. His face was extremely pale, blood spewed from his mouth, and his aura was weak.

He thought that by discovering the spiritual stone vein here, he could take another step forward, but he didn't expect that his lifespan would probably come to an end this time!

"Let me ask you first, does my eldest brother know that you are a demonic cultivator?"

Tang Youran took a step forward.

"Hmph! Even if I die, I won't tell you the truth!"

The old man suddenly tore his clothes, and on his chest, there was actually the image of a colorful evil spirit!

The old man's body instantly swelled like a balloon!

He was actually going to self-destruct!
