Lin Xuan stood silent for a long time, weighing the pros and cons, and then suddenly turned into a brilliant ray of light and flew away.

The direction of his flight was Spirit Pill Mountain.

Lin Xuan decided to return to the Sect. After all, the above was just his own analysis. Whether this rumor would spread and bring a calamity to Spirit Pill Mountain was confirmed yet, maybe he was just worrying too much.

Furthermore, even if things really become out of hand, it wouldn’t be too late to deal with it then. Although nominally, he has the honor of being the Junior Sect Master, those old monsters wouldn’t really care that much about a cultivator of the Foundation Establishment Stage.

He believed that it would be easy to leave when the time comes.

And this was the worst-case scenario. If no one believed the rumors, he could stay at Spirit Pill mountain and enjoy the cool breeze under the big tree. Not to mention the hidden strength of Spirit Pill Mountain, just his status of an alchemist, which was respected by both the Righteous and Demonic Path, these benefits have already made Lin Xuan reluctant to leave.

…

Three days later, Lin Xuan returned to the Sect.

He looked at Spirit Pill Mountain which was still the same. The green hills were standing tall as if they weren’t anticipating any trouble. Lin Xuan could not help but be a bit confused, was he really just being paranoid?

“Immortal Master!”

A boy offered a respectful bow, he was an Outer Sect Disciple of Spirit Pill Mountain.

“Mm.”

Lin Xuan glanced at him and felt that he was a bit familiar, but he couldn’t remember. It was no wonder, as a sect proficient in Alchemy, it needed a lot of manpower, whether it was sorting herbs or taking care of Pill Furnaces. So the number of Outer Sect Disciples was much more than other factions. Although Lin Xuan had far more memory capacity than ordinary people, it was impossible to recognize every one of them.

“Have any accidents happened recently?”

“Accident?” The boy was taken aback, then cautiously said, “Immortal Master, everything is normal. There’s nothing unexpected. “

“Okay, carry on!”

“Yes!”

Looking at the boy’s back, Lin Xuan finally lifted the big stone in his heart. Although the status of Outer Sect Disciples was very low, if this sect had undergone major changes, they would definitely know a thing or two. Since the boy hasn’t noticed anything, That proved that there was no danger.

It seems that I have been worrying too much. The guys in Fang City were just Rogue Cultivators with limited information. However, those who were in charge of the big Sects are all knowledgeable, treacherous, and cunning. They will naturally not listen to such vain rumors.

As long as the Big Three and the Extreme Demon Cave didn’t make a move, the other weak people weren’t worth paying attention to. Lin Xuan was not worried. The Spirit Pill Mountain had deep waters. Among the Elders who were immersed in cultivation, there was no shortage of Core Formation Stage Experts. There may even be a Nascent Soul Stage old monster. It was just a matter of little effort to deal with such a small matter.

Lin Xuan had a playful smile on his lips as he entered his own Cave Mansion.

He went straight to the Alchemy room and lay down a Formation at the door. Lin Xuan then began to sort out his harvest from Kuiyin Mountains.

The most important thing is naturally the Heavenly Dust Pill. Although it was fully integrated with the Scarlet Origin Pill and had lost its Spiritual Qi, as long as after it was purified with the Blue Star Sea…

Lin Xuan was full of joy. Afterward, he touched his Storage Bracelet and stored it away carefully.

He then took out the “Profound Demon Scripture”. When he got this strange book, Lin Xuan just roughly skimmed through it, feeling that the words seemed simple but profound. As for the techniques in the Cultivation Method, there was no time to study them. However, the Extreme Demon Venerable and the Sky Fiend Demon Lord were both leaders of their generation. This Cultivation Method that they practiced was also top-grade.

Now that he has returned to his own territory, he naturally wanted to carefully ponder this book.

Lin Xuan put his heart into reading the paper in his hand.

The sun gradually drifted westward, and the interior of the Cave Mansion slowly darkened.

Lin Xuan stretched out his hand and flicked his finger. Suddenly a white ray of light shot forth. It then circled over his head and turned into an egg-sized ball of light.

It emitted a soft light, which illuminated the cave as if it were daytime.

Lin Xuan did not move and continued to read even at night.

In this way, it was not until dawn of the next day, when the sun jumped out of the horizon, that Lin Xuan fell out of his trance and raised his head.

His expression was quite weird, another way to say it, he had mixed feelings.

In fact, Lin Xuan had not yet finished reading and had only browsed through more than half of it, but he was already very emotional.

No wonder that the Sky Fiend Demon Lord possessed such amazing magical powers, and the Extreme Demon Venerable has even become to be known as the first expert of the Demonic Path. This Cultivation Method was indeed quite amazing, and it was more than just the word “precious”.

What made Lin Xuan even more surprised, was that this was not just an ordinary Demonic Cultivation Method. To be precise, it should be called a Ghost Cultivation Method.

As one should know, Ghost Cultivation was a branch of Demonic Cultivation, but compared to ordinary demonic cultivators, it was even more rare and mysterious.

Although Lin Xuan was skeptical when he saw the Extreme Demon Venerable taking out the Ten Thousand Soul Banner. But it was not until he read this Profound Demon Scripture, that he knew he was actually a Ghost Cultivator.

It was this discovery that made Lin Xuan both happy and sad.

On one hand, since it was a top-level Cultivation Method of the Ghost Dao, then Lin Yue’er can naturally practice it too, and the better her strength, the more she would be of use to himself.

On the other hand, Lin Xuan was also extremely disappointed!

How should he put it, if it was a general Demonic Dao Cultivation Method, Lin Xuan may not practice it, but there were many Secret Techniques that he could use directly.

But this Cultivation Method is different.

One must be aware that although Ghost Cultivation could be regarded as a branch of those who seek immortality. But not to mention Immortal Cultivators, even Demonic Cultivators were quite different from them.

In addition to humans who practice Ghost Dao techniques, there were also Yin Ghosts with special physiques like Lin Yue’er.

In fact, the Spiritual Qi that those cultivators often talk about was a very general term. One must know that everything has a Yin and Yang. Even the so-called Spiritual Qi could not be exempted from being divided into two kinds: Yang Spirit Qi and Yin Spirit Qi.

Regardless of whether it was an Immortal Cultivator or a Demonic Cultivator, the Spiritual Qi that they usually inhale was Yang Spirit Qi, while Ghost Cultivators need the opposite, which is Yin Spirit Qi.
