Chapter 72

"Big Brother, it's you. No wonder Master didn't come."

Ruo Liufeng gave Ren Xiaoyao a slight bow, his face playful. This time out, the other sects all had elders leading them, but only the Qingcheng Sword Sect was entirely made up of young disciples.

However, with Ren Xiaoyao, the Qingcheng Sword Sect's strength was no less than that of the other sects.

"There's some trouble in the Southern Barbarian region. Master and the other uncles went to handle it."

Ren Xiaoyao smiled and explained why the elders of his sect were not present. Upon hearing this, the other sects all understood. On the 14th of July, many demons and monsters emerged, and only a part of the Daoist sects had come. The Qingcheng Sword Sect was close to the southern barbarian lands, where the mountains were poor and the water was foul, and there were even more demons and monsters. With Ren Xiaoyao here, it was enough.

"Alas, if not for the events of that year, the world would not be in such chaos, with demons rampant and the people suffering."

Fangxiandao's Danyuanzi sighed lightly. Danyuanzi, dressed in a simple, wide Daoist robe, had a gaunt face and was a well-known figure among the elders. Fangxiandao was famous for its alchemy, and Danyuanzi was also a master alchemist.

"As for the events of that year, it's best not to mention them!"

Xuanxindao's Yang Yuan smiled bitterly. The elders here all understood what had happened that year, and Xuanxindao had declined significantly since then.

The younger generation, however, was unfamiliar with the matter and was curious, but the elders remained silent, and no one mentioned it.

Seeing the heavy atmosphere, Zhenle of Baima Temple clasped his hands together. "Amitabha, all of you, let the past be past. It is already close to midnight, and you should all prepare. If we don't kill this demon, the world will be in chaos again!"

Everyone's spirits were lifted, and Yang Yuan felt secretly ashamed. "Master, you are right. Let's set out then."

"This battle will not be easy. Cultivators of the demonic and evil paths have also come. There might be unexpected situations. I think disciples below the Qi Transformation realm should not go. It would be a great waste if they were to perish here!"

Ren Xiaoyao looked at the cultivators from the various sects. The leading elders thought for a moment and nodded. Indeed, dealing with the Black Mountain Old Demon, those below the Qi Transformation realm would not be of much use.

"Then, disciples below the Qi Transformation realm will stay behind. The rest, be careful and wait outside Black Mountain."

Danyuanzi took out a gourd of pills and gave each person a round, lustrous pill. "This is the Lingyuan Pill. It can save your life. If you are seriously injured, retreat immediately."

"These are detoxification pills. Inside Black Mountain, there is a thick miasma, and venomous snakes and insects are everywhere. If you are poisoned, take one of these."

Danyuanzi gave each person a bag of nine detoxification pills. The disciples from the various sects all thanked him, and the group of cultivators headed toward Black Mountain. Along the way, they encountered venomous snakes and beasts, and the miasma and toxic fog, but that is another story.

In another direction, a group of cultivators with a mix of demonic and evil auras were also heading toward Black Mountain. Under the quiet night, Black Mountain was suddenly filled with hidden currents.

Inside Black Mountain, in a cave, the Black Mountain Old Demon, exuding a strong evil aura, sat on a stone chair with his eyes closed, resting. Below him, various demons and monsters from the Black Mountain region knelt, not daring to breathe loudly.

In front of the Black Mountain Old Demon, countless branches entangled a naked woman. She had long black hair, a delicate face, a well-proportioned body, and skin as smooth as jade. Her high, white breasts were a testament to her devilish figure.

This woman looked exactly like Nie Xiaoxian, but her eyes were tightly closed, her face pale, and her eyelashes were covered in a thin layer of ice. She emitted a white cold aura and had no soul.

The cave was filled with a dense yin energy, and the flames in the pots flickered ominously.

The Black Mountain Old Demon's long fingers lightly tapped the stone chair, as if waiting for something, waiting quietly.

"Lord Black Mountain, there are a large number of cultivators outside the mountain," a demon panicked and rushed in, kneeling on the ground.

The Black Mountain Old Demon suddenly opened his eyes, and two strange red beams flashed in his eyes. The demon that rushed in groaned and bled from the seven orifices, falling dead. The other demons trembled in fear.

"Shut up!" The Black Mountain Old Demon said softly, closing his eyes again. "Go, since some guests have arrived, go and entertain them."

"Yes, Lord Black Mountain!"

The demons trembled as they got up and headed out of the cave. In an instant, the large cave was left with only the Black Mountain Old Demon and Nie Xiaoxian's body.

As the yin energy in the world grew thicker, midnight quietly arrived. The Black Mountain Old Demon, sitting on the stone chair, suddenly stood up, his black cloak wrapping around his body. He approached Nie Xiaoxian's body, which was entangled by countless tree roots.

"Nie Xiaoxian, Nie Xiaoxian, do you think that by reincarnating, I can't do anything? Don't forget, your body is still in my possession. A Yin-Yang body, hehe..."

His inch-long nails drew a bloodline on Nie Xiaoxian's body, and the cold body oozed red blood, looking extremely strange in the yin energy. The Black Mountain Old Demon's hand caressed every inch of Nie Xiaoxian's skin, finally resting on her private area.

A strange black light covered the area, and Nie Xiaoxian's body quickly turned red. Her white, tender body seemed to be stained with blood, and a faint red light shone, emitting a light heat. The flawless body quickly withered like grass, and in a moment, it turned to ashes.

In the Black Mountain Old Demon's hand, a cold, red energy glowed. The red light was extremely cold, and even the Black Mountain Old Demon's long fingers were quickly frozen. The cold energy from the energy spread over his arm, covering his limbs, and finally turned the Black Mountain Old Demon into an ice sculpture.

Strange red light shone from his eyes, and a powerful suction force suddenly emanated from the Black Mountain Old Demon. The yin energy in the entire cave rushed toward him, forming a yin energy vortex. The vortex expanded, causing the entire Black Mountain to tremble. All the yin energy in the Black Mountain range converged toward Black Mountain.

At the peak of Black Mountain, the twisted osmanthus trees emitted black light, and the leaves swayed, absorbing yin energy from a radius of several dozen miles, forming another vortex. The light was dazzling, and the aura was astonishing.

"Kill... kill these demons first..."

A sword light flashed behind Ren Xiaoyao, and the head of a Qi Transformation realm demon flew up, blood spraying three feet high, as he shouted.

Seeing the strange changes in Black Mountain, the leaders of the various sects' faces changed slightly. Dozens of demons rushed out of the Black Mountain cave, leading their minions to attack. Not only were there demons, but also demonic and evil cultivators.

"Hehehe, Brother Xiaoyao, I miss you so much..." A beautiful demoness, barely covered by a red veil, broke through the air, her golden bells ringing, and a soul-stirring sound made everyone slightly dazed.

"Jin Ling, stop being so flirtatious. Ren Xiaoyao won't sleep with you. Why don't you try to seduce me instead?" A pale, sickly handsome young man waved a folding fan, followed by a group of evil cultivators, breaking through the air.

A group of cultivators in dark moon robes, exuding demonic energy, landed together.

"Union of Bliss, Heavenly Demon Sect, Moon Worship Sect..."

Ren Xiaoyao's gaze swept over the demonic and evil cultivators and sects that had arrived.
