    Chapter Index

    True disciples had a high status, and were quite important to a sect, being the future top level, one of the core strengths of the sect.

    Immediately, one of the elders mused, “I remember this. Not long ago, Chi Bai received a mission and went to spy on the Fire Persimmon Immortal City in the Southern Bean Country. There are rumors that an Organ Immortal Palace in the Fire Persimmon Mountain might have come out, the Lava Immortal Palace of the Three Sect Superiors back then.”

    The Soul Devouring Sect Patriarch’s gaze sank slightly, “The three sect superiors ……”

    “This person is not ordinary, his Refined Void cultivation is yet able to harden himself against the Harmonious Body level.”

    “He practiced both magic, Taoism and Buddhism, he did have talent, but his later years were unknown, he seemed to have gone off the deep end and committed suicide!”

    The Patriarch pondered for a while and looked at one of the sect elders, saying, “Elder Luo, what do you think should be done about this?”

    Elder Luo murmured out, “Our clan’s true legend has fallen, the true culprit must be investigated and severely punished, however, the Lava Immortal Palace is located in the Fire Persimmon Immortal City, so if we were to deploy the elder level, I’m afraid that it would cause unnecessary misunderstandings.”

    “I thought that it would be more appropriate to send one or two competent Jindan cultivators and a few ghost generals to protect them.

    “And investigate the real culprit first, then we can discuss and choose!”

    The Patriarch smiled, “These are the words of an old man seeking a country! Then, Elder Luo, which True Legend do you think is more suitable?”

    Elder Luo knew the Patriarch’s intention of being able to ask questions of himself, and immediately said, “Raising a virtuous person does not avoid relatives, the old immortal recommends his nephew Luo Zhen.”

    “Good, then it’s Luo Zhen!”

    The Patriarch immediately ordered that Luo Zhen be dispatched to the Fire Persimmon Immortal City to investigate, and that a YuanYing level combatant Ghost General be sent down to guard his path.

    This is already the operating limit of the norm.

    In a great devilish sect like the Soul Devouring Sect, the elder personnel were at least at the YuanYing cultivation level.

    Sending the Elder class would inevitably make the Southern Bean Country nervous, and would likely lead to unnecessary fights.

    Once the misunderstanding of the boss caused the Soul Devouring Sect to get into trouble with a behemoth like the Southern Bean Country, it wouldn’t be pretty.

    In the world of cultivation, greatness is often concentrated in one person.

    A YuanYing level existence could guard a side, such as Meng Hills guarding the Fire Persimmon Immortal City.

    Similarly, YuanYing cultivators could invade a party.

    An existence that reaches this level should not be lightly touched.

    Therefore, when the Soul Devouring Sect wanted to explore the soul stash reserves within the Fire Persimmon Mountain before, they also only sent out Qi Bai, a Jindan true disciple.

    It wasn’t that the Soul Devouring Sect didn’t have a YuanYing level, but the norm was to send Chi Baisi’s most suitable.

    Now that Chi Bai was suspected to have died in Fire Persimmon Immortal City, then the Soul Devouring Sect had a reason to send strong people to investigate.

    This strong person could not be at the YuanYing stage, but he should at least have YuanYing level means.

    Therefore, it was within the rules to send a ghost general with YuanYing level combat power to protect his body.

    As for the Soul Devouring Sect, which was a great sect of the Devil’s Way, why did it have to abide by the rules?

    The reason is simple.

    With constant production comes constancy.

    The Soul Devouring Sect occupies a large amount of territory, controls countless cultivation resources, and has a large family, so it naturally has many scruples.

    After Luo Zhen received the order, he immediately set off and rushed to Fire Persimmon Immortal City.

    Soon after he left, an inner disciple of the Soul Devouring Sect quietly sent out a message to go.

    The message traveled through layers of transit and eventually came to a town.

    The town’s leader, in turn, took the message and reached the nearest secret compound of the sect.

    In the compound, several cultivators were discussing and analyzing the many pieces of information.

    “One of the Soul Devouring Sect’s True Successors died? That’s a big deal.”

    “The Soul Devouring Sect’s side has tentatively ruled that it died in the middle of Fire Persimmon Immortal City in the Southern Bean Country.”

    “Isn’t there a rumor over there that an Immortal Palace has come out?”

    “Lava Immortal Palace? That’s just one of the twelve palaces of the Three Sect Superiors, which are indeed buried within the Fire Persimmon Mountain. This is confirmed.”

    “Wait, over at the Fire Persimmon Immortal City, aren’t there any disciples from my Not Empty Sect?”

    “Some of them, called Sun Spirit Pupil, manages the black market of Fire Persimmon Immortal City, and is considered to be well-informed. But he didn’t confirm the authenticity of the Immortal Palace’s emergence, he just reported some movements.”

    “Sun Ling pupil? It seems to be Xu Wuyan’s only disciple?”

    “Yes, many years ago, when Elder Xu was lost within the Lava Immortal Palace, Sun Lingxu stayed behind in the Immortal City, always believing that his master was not dead, but only trapped within the Immortal City. The sect, remembering that he possessed natural talent, had wanted to recruit him back, but was rejected.”

    “Heh heh heh, how silly!”

    “I do think that this son’s heart is rare and valuable, and even if he returns to the clan, it may not be a good choice, don’t forget, that Elder Qing is Elder Xu’s nemesis, and now he has a lot of power within the clan na!”

    “Hold it, there’s too much idle chatter, get this matter into the papers first!”

    “Whether it’s the Soul Devouring Sect or the Fire Persimmon Immortal City, it’s time to send sect disciples to further investigate.”

    ……

    So after a few days.

    This secret station of the Unholy Sect had gathered a lot more information.

    The cultivators of the Unempty Sect explored again.

    “Odd, the recent news about the emergence of the Fire Persimmon Immortal City has suddenly skyrocketed in number!”

    “The source has been verified, it’s the Meng family from the Southern Bean Country.”

    “The Monks?”

    “Isn’t one of the four generals of the Meng Clan, Meng Hilly, the City Lord of Fire Persimmon Immortal City! Why is he vigorously publicizing this matter?”

    “Very odd indeed!”

    “The higher-ups haven’t decided to send their elite to Fire Persimmon Immortal City to investigate? I feel that there will be an opportunity! “

    As he was saying this, a voice suddenly came, “I’m already here!”

    Inside the chamber, a group of cultivators were terrified and dispersed, furiously urging their mana, and the battle was about to start.
