After Xu Yin left, Lin Xuan followed Long Jun to the Yin Spirit Cult’s city branch. The guest and host were seated and the maid served some fragrant tea.

“Younger brother came to Heavenly Devil City, I don’t know what’s going on, but I hope I can be useful to you?”

After hearing this, Lin Xuan pondered for a moment: “This little brother needs a ghost cultivation technique used in the Foundation Establishment Stage. I wonder if brother Long has a way?”

“Ghost Cultivation Method?” Long Jun was taken aback: “Isn’t younger brother an Immortal Cultivator, why would you want to switch to our Demonic Dao?”

Lin Xuan smiled without saying a word. Long Jun didn’t continue to ask. After all, everyone has their own secrets. He frowned and slowly paced in the room. After a short while, he stopped and said with a bit embarrassment: “Younger brother should know these kinds of Cultivation Techniques are generally not found in the shops of the city. Even if they appear occasionally, they’re mostly garbage.”

“So that’s why I want to ask brother Long for help.”

Long Jun sighed and said awkwardly: “If it’s an ordinary technique of Demonic Cultivation, it would be not difficult to obtain it, with my identity of a young master, but although Ghost Cultivation is a branch of the Demonic Dao, it’s extremely rare…..”

…

After half an hour, Lin Xuan left the Yin Spirit Cult.

For the Cultivation Technique he needs, Long Jun couldn’t help. Of course, Lin Xuan’s trip is not without gain. From Long Jun’s mouth, he learned that the Ghost Valley has a top-level Ghost Cultivation method.

The Ghost Valley, one of the three major forces of Heavenly Devil City, as its name suggests, its members are actually a group of Ghost Dao cultivators.

But Lin Xuan didn’t want to pull the teeth from the tiger’s mouth and make an enemy out of them.

Although the strength of the three sects of the Demonic Dao is not as good as that of the Big Three, such as the Blue Cloud Mountain, there are dozens of Core Formation Stage cultivators in each group. And it’s not beneficial to provoke any of them.

However, although he felt that hope was slim, Lin Xuan did not give up and visited a few shops opened by Ghost Valley. Because maybe the blind cat can run into a dead mouse… [1]

Unfortunately, he gained nothing.

Feeling a little frustrated, Lin Xuan didn’t stay at Heavenly Devil City anymore. Since there is no hope of looking for Ghost Cultivation Techniques here, he would go to another place.

After leaving Heavenly Devil City, Lin Xuan was feeling dispirited. After only a few dozen miles away, three entangled lights fell into his eyes.

Lin Xuan stopped and hovered in mid-air, releasing his Spiritual Sense with no expression. Immediately, there was a trace of surprise on his face. He actually knew these two people.

They’re a pair of cultivators who had invited him to enter the city together.

Fighting against them is a Demonic Dao cultivator.

Although the three of them all had the cultivation base of the Foundation Establishment Middle-Stage, the Demonic Cultivator’s Cultivation Technique is extremely powerful, and the Spirit Tool that he’s using is also unusual. Although the couple were fighting two to one. The situation was extremely dangerous.

Lin Xuan saw it, but the expression on his face was still indifferent. Although he had a minor relationship with the couple, he will not take a risk without a reason. With Lin Xuan’s character, he would not have the boring mentality of helping others.

After taking a few cold glances, Lin Xuan was about to leave.

However, his body just moved. But then it stopped again, his face showed a pensive expression. The reason is that the white-robed scholar said some words: “I hope that Fellow Daoist will take action. This couple will give you a great treasure. “

With only a little hesitation, Lin Xuan flew over.

The Demonic Cultivator also noticed him, his face was alert and he wanted to speak. But Lin Xuan had already taken out the Wu hooks.

Since he had decided to act, he must act quickly and powerfully!

The Thousand Phantom Magic Art was used, and the Wu Hook turned into a dragon and rushed towards him.

The Demonic Cultivator showed a look of shock. His Spirit Tool was being entangled by the couple, and couldn’t be taken back easily. He can only use his hands to make a series of complicated gestures. A black mist emerges from his ears and nose and turns into a protective film that wraps him in it.

“Hmph, looking for death.” Lin Xuan remained unmoved. And he points at the dragon. The red dragon’s momentum rose sharply again, and the Demonic Cultivator’s Barrier made a “squeaking” sound. Finally, it shattered.

The Demonic Cultivator was shocked and wanted to escape using a secret technique. But Lin Xuan wouldn’t let him, so he released a Flying Sword, which passed through his chest, and then his body was burned into ashes by the flames.

Lin Xuan didn’t panic and flicked his sleeves, letting out a white light which then swept the other party’s Storage Bracelet.

“Thank you fellow Daoist for your help.”

The white-robed scholar clasped his hands. And said with gratitude. His Daoist Couple in red also dropped the arrogance from her face, and respectfully thanked him. The Cultivation World is determined by strength. Although the mysterious young man is of the Foundation Establishment Middle-Stage like them, but his strength is not the same.

“You’re welcome, what did Fellow Daoist mean by great treasure?”

“This…” A trace of embarrassment appeared on his face, seeing his expression, Lin Xuan’s expression gradually became cold.

Did this person actually lie?

If he fooled him in order to get help…

Lin Xuan is not bad in nature. He will not take the initiative to provoke others, but he will never be foolishly used as a spear.

If that’s the case, Lin Xuan will definitely make the two regret it.

“Fellow Daoist don’t get me wrong.” The white-robed scholars also noticed that Lin Xuan’s expression was not good. He said: “We really don’t have a treasure to give to fellow Daoist, but there is a piece of news that can give you great benefits.”

“Oh?” Lin Xuan knits his brows and keeps silent, waiting for him to continue.

“I don’t know Fellow Daoist, but do you need a Ghost Cultivation Technique for the Foundation Establishment Stage?”

After hearing this, Lin Xuan’s expression suddenly became sullen, and he coldly said: “How do you know?”

Did this person stalk him secretly?

“Don’t be angry Fellow Daoist.” The white-robed scholar hurriedly explained: “After inviting Fellow Daoist to go with us that day, us husband and wife also ventured into Heavenly Devil City and encountered Fellow Daoist in a shop called ‘Malicious Ghost House’.

“Malicious Ghost House?” Lin Xuan thought about it for a bit, he had indeed been there. At that time, there were also several other cultivators trading there, but he didn’t pay attention.

It should be that they heard his conversation with the shopkeeper, so they knew that he needed a Ghost Cultivation Technique.

Thinking of this, the expression on Lin Xuan’s face eased a little.

“Fellow Daoist needs a Cultivation Cultivation Technique. It just so happens that we have some information. I wonder if Fellow Daoist is interested?”

“Tell me.”

He looked everywhere, but couldn’t find it. Lin Xuan was ecstatic in his heart, but his face didn’t show the slightest expression.

Seeing Lin Xuan’s cold reaction, a look of disappointment flashed across the white robe scholar’s face, but he went on to say: “I don’t know if Fellow Daoist heard of the name, Master Yin Ghost?”

“Master Yin Ghosts?”

Lin Xuan frowned and nodded his head.

This person is a Rogue Cultivator, but his reputation is not inferior to the famous Experts of the schools of good and evil.

This is not because of his amazing strength, although it’s very good for a Rogue Cultivator, the Foundation Establishment Stage Great Perfection, and only one step away from Core Formation.

But the reason why he is famous is because of his evil and vicious means.

Although Demonic Cultivators are generally cruel and bloodthirsty, and they often fight each other for every disagreement, but this Ghost Master is so vicious, that even the Demonic Dao cultivators found him eye-catching.

Rape and looting, there’s no evil he hasn’t committed!

Moreover, his methods are cruel and outrageous, and cultivators who are defeated by him had their spirits held captive and were still tortured after death.

This person does not even let go of mortals.

If someone offends him, he’d kill their whole family!

He’s greedy and lustful, and all-female cultivators are used as Cultivation Cauldrons by him.

It stands to reason that such a wicked person doesn’t deserve to live, and should have been eradicated long ago. But don’t forget that the Cultivation World is selfish and cruel, as long as it does not touch their own interests, the promised security of the Heavenly Devil Guards is just for deceiving children.

And Master Yin Ghost is very cunning, he will not take the initiative to provoke those big forces, who are victimized are only helpless Rogue Cultivators, and ordinary mortals.

Therefore, although this person is indignant, he has been living happily.

“It seems that Fellow Daoist has heard of the evil name of Master Yin Ghost. This person is a ghost cultivator, and what he practices is a top-level Cultivation Technique, which is exactly what Fellow Daoist needs.”

“Why, do you have an enmity against him?” Lin Xuan is not a fool, and will not be used as a knife by others to kill people!

“This…” The white robe was hesitant, but the young woman in a red dress next to him spoke up: “What Fellow Daoist said is true, and this hatred is as deep as the sea!”

The other party’s confession made Lin Xuan a little surprised, but his voice was still chilly: “So, what’s your intention by telling me this? Do you think that I’m the kind of stupid person, who’ll be used by you?”

“Fellow Daoist is wrong, how could we couples have this intention?” The women in red sincerely explained: “Although we really want to borrow Fellow Daoist’s power to help us get revenge, but Fellow Daoist will not suffer, after Master Ghost Yin is gone, you can get the Ghost Cultivation Technique that you need.”

“Second, this thief did all kinds of evil. The treasures that he has looted over the years are quite a lot. As long as Fellow Daoist agrees to help, his things will not go to us, and all of them will be given to Fellow Daoist. What do you think?”

“Yes, Fellow Daoist, we all obtain what we need, and you don’t suffer!” The white-robed scholar hurriedly said from the side.

[1] : The word (hàozi) means (lǎoshǔ) mouse” and is the cat’s primary food source. Yet, if a cat can’t see, it can’t catch a mouse. The poor cat would eventually die of hunger. But if the blind cat were to come across an already dead mouse, well that’s one happy cat. This is equivalent to the heavens dropping free food down to the cat. It is a metaphor for having great luck by chance.
