Be the Hardest Working Demon Cultivator!

When the two confirmations merge on the path, after undergoing the questioning of the heavens and earth, they are actually already bound to that piece of heaven and earth. If the mortal breath is considered a restraint imposed by the Primordial Heavenly Realm on mortal beings, then these two confirmations act as a restraint on those who have just begun to attain immortality.

Logically speaking, after merging the two confirmations on the path, trying to return to the mortal realm from the Land of the Four Pillars would be extremely difficult, because one would first be repulsed by the will of this heaven and earth. Similarly, attempting to reach the Primordial Heavenly Realm would also become exceedingly challenging.

Yet Tan Shuchang made it look far too easy, defying all common sense.

Therefore, the young girl "Ah Lu" could only sigh in admiration again, "Truly worthy of someone who managed to slay his mentor!"

Mentor slaying was her lifelong dream.

Yet, it was something she could not achieve at the moment! Therefore, she respected anyone who could do so, no matter what their cultivation level was.

Because their situations were very similar.

Both had to confront the strong as the weak, with the odds of winning slim.

...

Tan Shuchang didn't linger in the uncanny game; he headed straight back to Ghost Ridge and then sensed some residual yin energy near the Mountain Patrol temple—a Yin God had been there.

And the other party did not intend to conceal their presence because faint ghost flames burned at this location.

These ghost flames, upon sensing his breath of life, instantly transformed into characters.

But Tan Shuchang did not recognize them.

Because of the language of ghosts.

However, it was no issue, Tan Shuchang casually grasped a Yin God from his own Coexistent Blood Pool and asked it to translate.

Although this Yin God had been refined, it had not lost its consciousness.

It simply could not defy Tan Shuchang.

So, soon Tan Shuchang learned the message conveyed by these characters.

"Beware the Immortal Sect of Book Mountain, none of the past inheritors of the Sword Dao chose to return to the Immortal Sect of Book Mountain."

Tan Shuchang thoughtfully deduced from the yin energy which Yin God it was, but he was unsure what the implications of these words were.

He already knew that the problems the nine past inheritors of the Sword Dao faced were because they were plotted against by the Qing Robe Elder.

However, the thought that the Qing Robe Elder, despite being the essence of wind and greenery, could regain his memory after being refined suggested the possibility of trickery; also, the elder's methods were too mysterious. Even though the Qing Robe Elder claimed it was an insight stumbled upon unintentionally, was it truly the case?

If this was the Mortal Realm, Tan Shuchang would not have second-guessed, but this was the Land of the Four Pillars!

The Primordial Heavenly Realm, home to True Immortals, was just above this stretch of sky!

Earthly Fiend Orthodox Law, Heavenly Gang Righteous Law, Heavenly Officers!

Tan Shuchang contemplated and decided not to erase the characters.

He intended to leave them for his upcoming visitor.

"Mentioning the Immortal Sect of Book Mountain for no apparent reason must be improbable; this Sword Dao inheritance is from the Immortal Sect of Book Mountain. So, could it be that the Immortal Sect is aware of my whereabouts and is about to arrive?"

Upon this thought, Tan Shuchang decided to delay his search for the magical treasure and chose an appropriate time.

And he didn't have to wait long for that appropriate time.

The next day, just as the sun rose in the east and the purple aura slowly spread, Tan Shuchang sensed the aura of numerous Immortals, stationed outside the entrance to Ghost Ridge.

Thereupon, Tan Shuchang invoked the Law of Greed.

...

Perhaps because ghosts were once human, they sometimes truly understand human nature. Regarding the attitude of the Immortal Sect of Book Mountain towards Tan Shuchang, the Yin Gods on Ghost Ridge were not mistaken.

Just the second day after the news spread, the Cultivators of the Immortal Sect of Book Mountain arrived with utmost solemnity.

There were dozens of them.

And each one of these dozens had stepped into the realm of immortality.

The leader was a three-test Cultivator.

However, all those who had come were Sword Cultivators. As for the current state of the Immortal Sect of Book Mountain, those who had some achievements in the Sword Dao could be counted on one hand.

Despite a respectable total number, most of them couldn't even master Flight with Magical Instruments to survey the mountains and rivers by themselves.

But when these Sword Cultivators arrived at Ghost Ridge, they found that the dilapidated Mountain Patrol temple was entirely empty; the Mountain Patrol Envoy who had obtained the Sword Dao inheritance was simply not there.

"There is only one entrance to Ghost Ridge, where could he have gone?" the three-test Cultivator leading this mission frowned slightly and asked.

"Senior brother, could this one be like the previous few?" one of the one-test Immortals among the congregation could not help but speak out.

As these words were spoken, the dozens of people who had arrived couldn't help but show smiles.

Some even laughed out loud.

After all, the occurrence of nine inheritors turning into fools one after another was no longer a secret.

"All younger brothers, calm yourselves."

The leading three-test Cultivator then calmly uttered this phrase.

At his words, the rest of the Sword Cultivators from the Immortal Sect indeed stopped laughing, although one-test, two-test, and three-test Cultivators might all refer to themselves as brothers, the gap between them was also boundlessly wide.

Furthermore, the three-test Cultivator leading this mission was a mighty and capable Cultivator. Your next read awaits at My Virtual Library Empire

His name was Huang Wuji, born in the southern regions of the Ling Domain, in the Azure Water Territory. His family owned extensive underwater caves and was one of the top-level families in the South Gate Pillar region.

And the reason Huang Wuji was in the Immortal Sect of Book Mountain was simply that he was a disciple of the Purple-Gold Immortal.

Though currently at the realm of a Righteous True Immortal of Earthly Slaughter, no one doubted that he could make another step forward and reach the realm of Heavenly Gang Righteous Law.
