Who Told Him To Cultivate Immortality!

Chapter 49: The Devil Sect

"Who would write a letter to the tiger demon? Hasn't the tiger demon always been hiding from cultivators and not letting them know of its whereabouts?"

The three of them couldn't figure it out. With the tiger demon's cautious attitude, it shouldn't be possible for outsiders to know of its existence.

"Niannian, what's written in the letter?"

Meng Jingzhou cleared his throat and read with an emotional voice, "Brother Tiger, I haven't seen you in a long time. How have you been?"

"Brother Tiger is cautious and doesn't want to show yourself. Righteous cultivators know of your existence and you only attack mortals. I admire your cultivation method of winning step by step, but it's still too slow in the end.

Now that the great era is coming and heroes are rising, people from all sides are eyeing the Central Continent covetously. Brother Tiger, didn't you also seize this opportunity to leave your home and the Qiongqi bloodline and sneak into Mount Song from the Yao Domain? "

"Cautious … Don't push me. I'll read it to you, okay?" Lu Yang and Brutal Bones sandwiched Meng Jingzhou between them and directly read the letter.

"You're reading too slowly."

"I'll read faster. You two move aside."

Meng Jingzhou pushed the two of them away and continued reading, "It's not wrong to be cautious, but in this great era that's recovering, you can only seize the opportunity if you're bold. You can go all out and purify your bloodline to become a pure-blooded Qiongqi. Only then can you have a foothold in this great era."

"I'll be so bold as to suggest that Brother Tiger and his wife join my Yanjiang Branch together. We'll prey on cultivators and work together to achieve great things!"

"There's a token in the letter. Brother Tiger can take it and come to Yanjiang Branch to find me. I can directly recommend Brother Tiger as a steward."

"Brother Qin Yuanhao pays his respects."

The letter wasn't long, but it revealed a lot of information.

Lu Yang analyzed, "The letter says that the tiger demon doesn't want Righteous cultivators to know about it. This doesn't fit the language. Normally, people wouldn't directly address Righteous cultivators as' Righteous cultivators', unless the writer is on the opposite side of Righteous cultivators. Is Qin Yuanhao a Demonic cultivator?"

This also explained why some cultivators knew of the tiger demon's situation but didn't report it.

In the Central Continent, Righteous cultivators had an absolute advantage. Demons, demons, and ghosts were natural allies. Take the tiger demon for example. It wouldn't directly attack people but let the ghosts lure them over.

The tiger demon had the bloodline of the Qiongqi, and it was also at the Golden Core stage. It was reasonable for Demonic Dao cultivators to rope it in.

"In that case, Yanjiang Branch is a stronghold of the Devil Sect?"

Meng Jingzhou nodded. "The Devil Cult likes to use names of places as strongholds, but I don't know which Devil Cult's stronghold is in Yanjiang Branch."

Just like the Righteous Dao cultivators had the Five Great Immortal Sects, the Demonic Dao cultivators also had their own sects called the Four Great Demonic Sects.

The Demonic Sect was a religion, not a sect. The biggest difference was whether or not they believed in a powerful existence.

The beliefs of the Four Great Demonic Sects were different. Some said that the beliefs of the Four Great Demonic Sects represented the Four Immortals, while others said that the Four Great Demonic Sects were merely the Four Incarnations of a certain Immortal.

The Devil Cult had revealed very little information to the outside world. Their whereabouts were confusing. The Great Xia Dynasty and the five immortal sects had joined forces to search many times, but they still could not find the Devil Cult's headquarters.

Every time the Righteous Dao cultivators uprooted a large area of the Devil Cult's strongholds, the Devil Cult's followers would spring up like bamboo shoots after the rain.

The Devil Cult was said to be mysterious and unpredictable. Their methods were strange, vicious, and merciless, which made people terrified. In fact, it wasn't because the Righteous Dao was too strong that the Devil Cult didn't dare to reveal themselves and only dared to use underhanded methods.

Whenever the Devil Cult's headquarters could be found, the Great Xia Dynasty didn't need the five immortal sects to do anything. The Great Xia Dynasty could send troops and turn the Devil Cult upside down in five days. In one month, all the lairs would be uprooted.

This was the confidence of the Righteous Path.

After all, the Devil Path was something that couldn't be shown in public.

Lu Yang shook the envelope and took out a bone token. There was a special True Qi on it. It was left behind by the Devil Sect member called Qin Yuanhao. Outsiders couldn't imitate it.

Brutal Bones said, "Can we use this token to join the Devil Sect?"

Discovering the Devil Sect's lair was a great merit. It was much more valuable than eliminating two tiger demons.

Lu Yang shook his head. "No, if we use his token to join the Yanjiang Branch, Qin Yuanhao will definitely know."

"And we don't know the location of the Yanjiang Branch. How can we join?"

"Then what should we do?" Brutal Bones asked.

"Since it's called the Yanjiang Branch, it should be in Yanjiang County. We can go there and ask if there's someone called Qin Yuanhao. We can follow him to the Yanjiang Branch. Since he can call himself a little brother in front of the tiger demon, his cultivation shouldn't be higher than the tiger demon. We can kill him and use the token to say that we're Qin Yuanhao's old friends. We came to seek refuge with him, but he died."

"Good idea." Meng Jingzhou and Brutal Bones' eyes lit up.

"Let's search again and see if we can find anything good." Lu Yang urged Meng Jingzhou to work excitedly.

Meng Jingzhou turned over a blood-red grass. It was the size of a palm and looked a little evil.

"Jade Blood Grass. Why does it have red veins?"

Meng Jingzhou was puzzled. The main function of the Jade Blood Grass was to detoxify. Its veins were blue, like a river flowing on the ground. Why was this one red?

Lu Yang squatted down to identify it. Then he said, "You forgot that the main function of the Jade Blood Grass for humans is to be a main ingredient for detoxification pills. It's not the same for monsters."

"The Jade Blood Grass has the effect of refining blood. It's possible that the tiger demon has been watering the Jade Blood Grass with its blood for a long time to make it suitable for the Qiongqi bloodline. In a few months, the Jade Blood Grass will be fully mature. After the tiger demon consumes it, the Qiongqi bloodline will become purer and it will be able to form its core."

That was how the Jade Blood Grass got its name.

Lu Yang heard about the Jade Blood Grass from the Little Medicine King.

"Now, this Jade Blood Grass can no longer be refined into an antidote. It can only be used by the Demon Clan to purify their bloodline," Lu Yang said.

"Since that's the case, you can keep it and sell it at the Sect's market on the fifteenth of every month. You should be able to get a good price." Meng Jingzhou handed the herbs to Lu Yang and Brutal Bones.

Many people in the sect raised demonic beasts. Herbs that could improve one's bloodline were quite popular in the Dao Seeking Sect.

Lu Yang and Brutal Bones pushed each other back and forth. In the end, Brutal Bones didn't stand on ceremony with Lu Yang and accepted the Jade Blood Grass.

Meng Jingzhou reminded Barbaric Bones, "Don't eat the Jade Blood Grass. The Ancient Barbaric Tribe is a branch of the human race. The Jade Blood Grass is useless to your bloodline."

"Oh," Brutal Bones said regretfully.

Legend has it that the ancient barbarian race originated from a romantic proposal. In ancient times, the human race was still scattered in the form of tribes. The strongest person in the tribe was called a warrior.

One day, when the two tribes met, the male warrior of one tribe took a fancy to the female warrior of the other tribe and proposed to her. "Little girl, smile for me. If I'm happy, I'll marry you."

The female warrior laughed and swung a stone back at him. The two of them wrestled. In the end, the female warrior won and dragged the male warrior into the house. They didn't sleep for the whole night.

Ten months later, the first barbarian warrior was born.
