Ch561 – The Fiend’s Appearance

Edited by Ea and Molly

One of Lin Xuanzhi’s eyebrows raised, “Little Yu?”

“It’s Gu Ruyu, the eldest son of the imperial commander of the Purple Emperor’s Heavenly Capital, who played with me as a friend from childhood.”

“Didn’t you live in a small world when you were a child?”

Yan Tianhen, “I only came to the Five Continents when I was five or six years old. Then I returned to the Nine Lands at the age of 18. It has been more than eight years now.”

Lin Xuanzhi seemed very interested in Yan Tianhen’s life in the Five Continents, so he asked, “Who did you live with when you were in the Five Continents?”

“I lived with my adopted father in the Lin family.” Yan Tianhen paused for a moment, and said with some surprise, “I just found out that Huarong Gege and my adopted father are actually of the same surname. Maybe you two descended from the same family ten thousand years ago.”

Lin Xuanzhi said in his heart, It doesn’t need to be thousands of years ago, I still belong to the family right now. Lin Xuanzhi asked again, “Where is your father — your adopted father?”

“He is the Dao companion of the Xuan Sovereign of the East Lands, and he is now in the East Lands.”

“Did he come to the Nine Lands with you eight years ago?”

Yan Tianhen shook his head. “He has been here for more than ten years, much earlier than me.”

“En. Did he and Sovereign Xuan meet each other after he came to the Nine Lands? Then their relationship developed very quickly.”

“That’s not the case. My adopted dad has been to the Nine Lands many years ago with Uncle Mo. At that time, he had already become a Dao companion with Sovereign Xuan, but later because the two had a conflict, my adopted father left Sovereign Xuan in a rage.”

“What conflict happened to them?” Lin Xuanzhi seemed very interested.

“It was because of a…” Yan Tianhen stopped here, suddenly stuck, he clearly remembered he heard his dad talk about it before, but why was his mind blank at this moment?

Yan Tianhen was stunned for a while, then frowned and pondered over it for a long time. He patted his head in confusion. “Why can’t I remember? I knew it before… this is not right.”

If you need to MTL please retype the gibberish parts.Seeing his distressed look, Lin Xuanzhi sighed in his heart and spoke, “There are so many things that happen every day. It is normal to forget some of them. Why don’t you ask your adopted dad again in the future? Don’t think about it for now.”

He had tested other people before, including Esteemed Lan Yue, Yan Zhonghua, and You Ming, but the blank portions of their memories were completely filled by lies and false family situations, but Yan Tianhen didn’t seem to be like this.

Lin Xuanzhi was deeply distressed. He comforted Yan Tianhen, “They’re all unimportant things. It’s fine if you don’t have all the memories of the past. Being happy in the future is more important.”

Seeing that Yan Tianhen had not yet recovered, Lin Xuanzhi changed the topic, “How long does it take to refine the Silver Frost Poison Pill? Do you have any requirements for the environment and furnace?”

Yan Tianhen took a deep breath and forced himself to withdraw from the anxiety of the missing memories, “It can be done in about a month. The alchemy environment…just has to be a little quieter. Huarong Gege doesn’t have to worry about the furnace. My Chanchan is very easy to use.”

Lin Xuanzhi said with a smile, “If you can refine Earth Level pills in the future, I’ll ask someone to upgrade it for you.”

Yan Tianhen was overjoyed. Only a high-level pill furnace could refine a high-level pill, otherwise it would not be able to withstand the power of the spiritual pill and its true essence at all.

However, it was extremely difficult to upgrade a furnace to Earth Level, and it required a powerful and reliable craftsman to guarantee success.

Yan Tianhen naturally trusted a person that Lin Xuanzhi found.

“Thank you, Huarong Gege.” Yan Tianhen smiled, “I originally planned to have the person who gave me the pill furnace reforge it for me, but since Huarong Gege said so…”

At this point, Yan Tianhen once again drew a blank — who exactly was the person who gave him the pill furnace?

Yan Tianhen finally cheered up after much difficulty, but not long after, he was immersed in grievances again.

Lin Xuanzhi, “…”

Is there any topic I can safely discuss?

Yan Tianhen was pressed by Lin Xuanzhi to practice techniques on Little Penglai, but he himself took a rare trip and left the island and, going to Myriad Dao Academy to find those kinds of high-level spiritual plants for Yan Tianhen.

As soon as he came out of Little Penglai, he met Yin Chongyue.

Over the years, Yin Chongyue had entered Tool Ocean Hall. He neither refined tools nor taught lessons. He did not care about anything on ordinary days, just waiting for a magic treasure, medicinal pill, or peerless weapon that he needed to discern to show itself. Only then would he appear and appraise it.

Yin Chongyue was a living encyclopedia with sophisticated eyes and brilliant knowledge. The elders of the sect had the wisdom to recognize talents, so they would not let him go easily.

Yin Chongyue lived in the forbidden area in the back mountain of Myriad Dao Academy. He was bored on ordinary days, planting all kinds of spiritual plants, raising trees, and also developing new varieties in his spare time and returning from time to time to take Ah Bai and Hu Po with him. His life was not too boring. Yin Chongyue spent most of his time in secluded cultivation. This time, too, he had just left closed-door cultivation.

Yin Chongyue stopped Lin Xuanzhi in his tracks and asked, “You’re about to leave? Have you also received the news and are now going to the Conference Hall?”

Lin Xuanzhi paused. “What happened?”

“There have been Fiend sightings in Jade Ocean City. The people in the East Lands have already gone on full alert, and they have notified the City Lord of Ethereal City. The City Lord wants our Myriad Dao Academy to send people to patrol the city and guard its citizens, all the way until the Fiends’ disappearance is confirmed.”

Lin Xuanzhi’s expression shrank. “Didn’t the Fiends disappear tens of thousands of years ago? What kind of Fiend appeared this time?”

Yin Chongyue shook his head. “I also just received the message, so I don’t know anything yet. Let’s go and see the situation together.”

Although the news of the appearance of the Fiends was very frustrating, Yin Chongyue did not show much worry along the way.

However, when they arrived at the Conference Hall, they found that almost all the elders and Hall Masters had grave expressions, including Wan Miantang, the Dean of the East Courtyard, who was usually quite laid-back. He was frowning, deep in thought.

Seeing Huarong Sword Immortal and Yin Chongyue, the Sword Saints of Sword God Hall showed a relieved expression.

Esteemed Yao Guang was the first to receive them, “You two are finally here. Huarong Sword Immortal, we have just received the news about this matter, but we haven’t had time to hear the details, we were just waiting for you and Radiant Sky Venerable.”

Next to him stood a tall young man with full body armor, his starry eyes as sharp as a sword. One could easily guess his identity at a glance.

His name was Jiang Qianjiao, he was the first general in the East Lands. Because Jade Ocean City was the last outer barrier of Ethereal City, it usually had more troops and patrols than Ethereal City did. There was no army in Ethereal City, but there was a City Lord who was responsible for all matters in the city. The Lord’s surname was Qin, and his family had been the City Lord of Ethereal City for generations, so he could be regarded as popular.

City Lord Qin was afraid that Lin Xuanzhi didn’t know Jiang Qianjiao, so he took the initiative to introduce him, “This is General Jiang. It was his subordinates who had discovered the Fiends in Jade Ocean City, and the general also personally confronted a Fiend.”

He then introduced Lin Xuanzhi to the general, “This is Huarong Sword Immortal, I probably don’t need to introduce him too much.”

Jiang Qianjiao’s fierce eyes looked slightly at Lin Xuanzhi. “I have heard that Huarong Sword Immortal has broken the barrier with one strike, and that he’s the only one in heaven and earth who can do that. I only hope that Huarong Sword Immortal can live up to his reputation when facing the fiends. Such words are no exaggeration. Fiends are different from demons. This kind of thing will revive again if they’re not completely killed. It has strong survivability and great destructive power. If you do not have enough experience in actual combat, it is better for you to protect your own life instead of fighting them.”

Jiang Qianjiao and Lin Xuanzhi had not met each other before. It was impolite of him to say this, but it was actually a reminder to Lin Xuanzhi.

Esteemed Yao Guang raised his eyebrows. “Huarong Sword Immortal is naturally capable of this, so let us hurry up and talk about the main matter.”

Jiang Qianjiao stopped talking nonsense and said frankly, “The Fiends we met this time could disguise themselves as human beings and mix in the crowd. The only way to identify them is the red line behind their necks.”

When Jiang Qianjiao said this, he glanced at the subordinate next to him, and said, “You can tell them exactly what you saw with your own eyes.”

The subordinate quickly responded, “There were a few people in the city who were walking on the road, but quickly lost their cultivation and became corpses. We quickly realized that something was wrong and stepped up patrols and observations. I was patrolling that day and saw a well-behaved man dressed normally following a cultivator who was buying pills. After the cultivator left, he suddenly placed his hand on the cultivator’s head, and in a moment, the cultivator became a corpse, and when we investigated his cultivation, it was already empty. I immediately took a few brothers to apprehend the man. Unexpectedly, the man tore his clothes and turned into a puddle of soft black water, flowing quickly in all directions and corners. His body could change into various shapes, flow through small openings, and then regroup together to become a new person. If they don’t bother with any disguise, they will just appear as black humanoid monsters without any hair or facial features. Not only did this kind of Fiend use the method of devouring someone’s cultivation base to kill people, but it also has extremely strong learning and imitation abilities. It was actually able to use swords and knives. In order to catch that Fiend, we lost more than a dozen brothers. Finally, the general came forward and wounded the Fiend after much difficulty.”

When the subordinate said this, he couldn’t help but burst into tears. He was the only one who survived among all the soldiers who went with him to track the Fiend, and he only survived because the general arrived in time and didn’t give the Fiend a chance to kill him.

Upon hearing this, Lin Xuanzhi deliberately asked, “Dare to ask the General, how is your cultivation level?”

If you ask such a thing to a cultivator outside, or in normal times, it may be treated as a provocation or causing trouble. The person who asked might be beaten, but now the situation was critical. Lin Xuanzhi wanted to understand the situation of the Fiends; it was understandable to ask such a question.

Fortunately, Jiang Qianjiao was not a stingy person. He frowned and said, “My cultivation base is at Earth Realm’s Small Perfection Stage, Major Attainment Level, and the cultivation base of the Fiend didn’t seem to be as high as mine, but its ability to transform into water, splitting and regrouping, was a little annoying. I forced it to the edge of Jade Ocean City near the sea at that time. I wanted to kill it completely, but it suddenly split apart and turned into eight pools of water-like things. I also used eight bursts of sword energy to kill him at the same time, but unexpectedly one of them jumped into the sea.”

At this point, Jiang Qianjiao was a little ashamed and said to the Lord of Ethereal City, “We have been guarding the seaside for five days, but we didn’t find that thing coming out. So we thought — it couldn’t have traveled along the sea and gone to Ethereal City, right?”

City Lord Qin, “….”

Don’t tell me that you actually expect him to drown?

Jiang Qianjiao found that the eyes of everyone looking at him were not so friendly.

Wan Miantang said, “Fiends have not appeared in the mainland for tens of thousands of years. How can they suddenly appear in Jade Ocean City? Maybe this thing is not a Fiend, but something else?”
