In those years when I was a mortal and a demon

Just when Lu Yuan and Brother Tie Zi returned to Luoyun Sect, the battle at Luohun Mountain had already spread throughout the Tiannan Immortal Cultivation World.

On a large river in the Lingshan Mountain somewhere in the country of Yue, more than a dozen monks in different costumes were gathering in a larger pavilion to chat.

These people are basically low-level monks in the Qi refining and foundation building stages. What he was talking about was naturally about the battle to exterminate demons.

"Have you heard? There is news that the ancient demon who has completely recovered his vitality has magical powers with three heads and six arms, and his cultivation is close to that of the legendary monks in the god transformation stage." Someone lamented.

As soon as these words came out, everyone sitting there was shocked and immediately became speechless.

"The stage of transformation into gods is the pinnacle of the world of immortality. Who can destroy it?"

"I heard that the ancient demon not only attacked high-level monks, but also attacked low-level monks like us like crazy. It also bloodbathed more than a dozen immortal cultivating families and several immortal cultivating sects. A great disaster in the world of immortal cultivating is coming. What!"

"..."

At this time, a handsome young man sitting in the middle didn't seem to hear. He picked up the teacup as if nothing had happened and snorted coldly.

Following his cold snort, everyone closed their mouths. Although the handsome young man is also a foundation-building monk, his status is noble.

"Even if the ancient demon is infinitely close to the stage of divine transformation, it is still not in the stage of divine transformation. Why can't it be destroyed?" The handsome young man said calmly after taking a sip of the spirit tea.

"Fellow Daoist Zuo is a student of Senior Yunlu of the Hehuan Sect. With your status, you must know something inside." Someone else complimented.

"To be honest with you, according to my teacher, the battle at Luohun Mountain brought together all the top-level combat forces in Tiannan. Those without a cultivation level above the middle stage of Nascent Soul are not even qualified to participate."

"Above the middle stage of Nascent Soul!" When everyone heard this, there was another gasp.

"It's not enough to have a cultivation level above the middle stage of Nascent Soul. Do you know which seniors are participating?" The young man surnamed Zuo gave up and glanced at everyone with pride. Almost everyone was eagerly waiting for him to continue.

But there happened to be a young man of similar age to him, with a stern face, leaning to the side with a bored look on his face, as if he was not very interested in what he was saying.

"Heaven hates the old monster, Long Han of Luan Ming Sect..." The young man named Zuo stared at the man coldly and said seven or eight names that had been powerful in the south for hundreds of years.

"In addition, there were two great monks and a Mulan master who took action to deal with this demon. The battle was so dark that no other monks could get involved. The entire main peak of Luohun Mountain was cut into pieces. The ground is flat." When he said this, the young man surnamed Zuo paused.

But when others heard this, most of their faces couldn't help but show a hint of shock.

"Will this demon be destroyed in this battle?" someone asked.

"Naturally, my uncle Hehuan Laomo, as one of the three great monks, used several secret techniques to severely injure the ancient demon, and finally destroyed it physically and mentally!" said the young man surnamed Zuo proudly.

But when he looked at the stern young man who still had no reaction, the anger on his face became even more intense. By this time, everyone else also noticed something was wrong and looked at the sinister young man.

"Both body and soul are destroyed? Have you seen it with your own eyes?" The sinister young man found that everyone was looking at him, touched his chin, and said disapprovingly.

"What do you mean? Didn't you see it with your own eyes!" The handsome young man stood up suddenly, but did not make a move.

Because the young man surnamed Zuo was not able to be appreciated by Old Demon Yunlu and accepted as his disciple, but it was not because of his face. He is far superior to his peers in both mental and spiritual abilities.

Although he had already checked with the Sky Eye, that person was a late-stage Foundation Establishment practitioner. But it would be unwise to act hastily without finding out the origin of the sinister young man.

"Of course I didn't see it, but I know more than you. You just said that those below the middle stage of Nascent Soul are not even qualified to participate. But why did I hear that Lu Yuan of Luoyun Sect also participated in the Demon Slayer? war.

Not only did he risk his own life to lure the ancient demon to Luohun Mountain, but he also used his great magical power to cut off two of the ancient demon's heads with just one person! "The stern young man said slowly.

The tone was plain, but the content was earth-shattering, causing everyone present to be in an uproar.

"This is happening!"

"No wonder there is news that the three major monks have already approved Senior Lu of the Luoyun Sect as the fourth monk of Tiannan. It turns out that he is capable of such terrifying things!"

"Fellow Daoist Zuo, is this true?" Someone asked the young man named Zuo for confirmation.

"So what if it is true, although Senior Lu came from behind and was ranked as the fourth monk. But after all, his realm is still much inferior. He is only ranked ahead of Old Monster Tianhen and Long Han Fengbing. In Tiannan, the three major cultivators are still ranked first. A monk is respected." The young man surnamed Zuo said harshly.

"Is it possible that Lu Yuan's realm will always be in the early stage of Nascent Soul? Once he advances to the middle or late stage, the three major monks may have to step aside! I heard that after the battle to destroy the demon, Lu Yuan and the old demon Hehuan had some quarrels. There was friction, but in the end the old devil of Hehuan took Master Zhiyang and ran away without taking any action!" The sinister young man sneered.

"Fart! If you dare to be disrespectful to my uncle, no matter who you are, Zuo will definitely capture you today, and then your elders will come to the leader of the Hehuan Sect in person!"

"Give it to me!" After the young man named Zuo finished speaking, he pointed at the sinister young man with one hand.

The stern young man raised his eyebrows and ignored all this. He stood up and stretched.

"Huh? It seems that Zuo has met his opponent today!" The young man named Zuo immediately lost his composure, and his aura suddenly changed. Then he patted the storage bag, and a black iron chain flew out with a chill and even the sound of ghosts crying.

"It's the top-level magical weapon, the Soul Hook!" Someone exclaimed when the crowd was neutral, and then everyone fled out of the stone pavilion, leaving only the two young men surnamed Zuo.

"At the peak of the late stage of foundation building, one foot has already entered the realm of fake elixir." The stern young man turned a deaf ear to the iron chain magic weapon, looked at the young man named Zuo up and down, and sighed in admiration.

When the young man surnamed Zuo saw that the other party was criticizing him, he became even more angry.

"I have already achieved the False Pill Perfection. Even if I face a pill-forming monk, I am still strong enough to fight!" After saying this, he pointed at the soul-grabbing lock in front of him.

"go with!"

The black mist swelled around the soul lock, and it let out a scream, heading straight for the sinister young man.

"Oh? Is it possible to form a battle pill?" Yinli Qingnian smiled and pressed the soul hook lock in the air.

The soul-grabbing lock immediately stopped spinning in mid-air, unable to move any further, as if it had been restrained by someone's spell.

The young man named Zuo was so stunned!

What kind of spell is this? Even top-level magic weapons can be immobilized!

But if the young man surnamed Zuo is attracted by Old Demon Yunlu, he is naturally not an ordinary person. Without thinking, he immediately raised his hand and patted the storage bag again, and took out several magic weapons at once.

Those magic weapons were sparkling, and they were all top-level magic weapons. The monks outside the pavilion were all jealous.

The stern young man curled his lips, seemed to have lost some interest, and grabbed the soul lock from the air.

The soul-grabbing lock in mid-air let out bursts of whining, and in the blink of an eye it collapsed into several pieces!

The young man surnamed Zuo, who was also traumatized, immediately spurted out a mouthful of blood and became sluggish. The eyes that looked at the stern young man were full of fear.

"You can crush magic weapons with your bare hands! Who are you?"

"Luo Yunzong, Li Feiyu!" The sinister young man chuckled, spitting out a radiant knife from his mouth, and then flew away in the sky.

"Magic weapon! It's a senior who is in the elixir formation stage!" Someone shouted and bowed before bowing. Others saw this and followed suit.

The young man surnamed Zuo sat paralyzed in the stone pavilion, looking at the retreating light, unable to feel any resentment in his heart.

Although he didn't know who Li Feiyu was from Luoyun Sect, but in the conversation just now. This person called Lu Yuan by his name many times without any respect. He must have a close relationship with Lu Yuan.

And Old Demon Yunlu had repeatedly told these disciples that Lu Yuan was a being that could not be provoked under any circumstances.

"Well, luckily I have just advanced to the middle stage of elixir formation, otherwise I may not be able to easily handle this guy with fake elixir perfection."

Li Feiyu laughed at himself, and then drove the escape light to change several directions in succession. Based on the memories from his early years, he flew towards the border of Jingzhou, Yue Kingdom.

......

Zijin Kingdom is located in the southwest of Yue Kingdom. When the Six Demonic Sects invaded, they formed an alliance with the Yuanwu Kingdom to support the Yue Kingdom.

However, due to the rebellion of Lingshou Mountain, one of the seven factions of the Yue Kingdom, the Allied Forces of the Three Kingdoms were defeated in Jinguyuan.

Spirit Beast Mountain has made such a great contribution, and combined with the merger with Yuling Sect, its reputation among the six demon sects has greatly increased, and it has naturally monopolized the Zijin Kingdom.

It's just that two or three hundred years have passed, and the Yuling Sect is now in a state of decline. First, Gu Shuangpu, the elder of the Yousect, was discovered to be a Mulan spy and was killed by Han Li.

Fortunately, the Five Elements Spiritual Infants were successfully integrated later, allowing five more Nascent Soul stage monks to appear in the sect out of thin air, giving them the capital to compete with the Hehuan Sect for the leader of the demonic path.

However, he was brought into the Falling Demon Valley by the great elder Dongmen Tu, and not one of them came out at the end. As a result, there are only two Nascent Soul monks in charge of the Yuling Sect today.

And one of them, because his life expectancy is approaching, has been in seclusion for many years. If the Yuling Sect had not encountered the calamity of annihilation, it is estimated that it would never have left seclusion in this life.

This situation makes the original ancestor of Spirit Beast Mountain, who is sitting in the chief seat of Yulingzong's meeting hall, feel happy and worried at the same time.

He was happy that he finally had the power, but he was worried that his brother alone would not be able to hold on to the Yuling Sect's huge family fortune.

Especially the piece of news he just received made him feel as if he had fallen into an ice cave.

At the meeting held at Tai Zhen Sect a few months ago to discuss the extermination of the ancient demons, Lu Yuan once asked why the Yuling Sect did not send anyone to attend!

In the past, this was not a big deal, and the Yuling Sect would treat it as a casual question.

But things are different now. Lu Yuan is already the fourth monk recognized by the three major monks, and he is an existence that the Yuling Sect cannot afford to offend today.

The ancestor of Spirit Beast Mountain thought about it for several days, but could not remember when he had provoked this evil star.

Could it be because of the betrayal of the Seven Factions of the Yue Kingdom by Ling Beast Mountain in the early years?

I heard that Lu Yuan has had a good relationship with Old Ghost Linghu in recent years, and he even got involved with Leng Yue of the Hidden Moon Sect some time ago, so the six factions of the Yue Kingdom took the opportunity to instigate Lu Yuan to seek revenge?

"Great Elder, I think you don't need to be upset about this matter. Even if Senior Lu is really dissatisfied with our Yuling Sect, we can wait until he makes it clear and then we can ask the Hehuan Sect to mediate. At worst, we will lower our attitude. Just make amends to him." In the meeting hall, a pill-forming monk wearing a green robe said.

"Great Elder, I think what Senior Brother Liu said is completely wrong. Thinking about the lessons learned by the Demon Flame Sect back then, isn't it profound enough? As for the Hehuan Sect, they are almost in danger of losing their own protection. How could they go to see Senior Lu again because of us? "Soon other monks retorted.

"That's right. We must take the initiative in this matter. I think it's best to send someone to Luoyun Sect to find out the reason." Someone agreed.

"You said it nicely, can I let you go? That's the fourth monk in Tiannan. I sent a few alchemy monks to ask him, isn't it clear that I don't take him seriously?"

"Stop arguing, we really should go and find out. Which of you is willing to take on this important task?" The ancestor of Spirit Beast Mountain thought for a while and suddenly asked the twenty or thirty pill-forming monks below.

As soon as these words came out, everyone immediately fell silent.

The ancestor of Spirit Beast Mountain turned cold when he saw this, and said angrily: "Are you asking me, the great elder, to go there in person?"

At this moment, the leader, an old man in the late stage of pill formation, suddenly thought of something. He began to move his lips slightly, secretly transmitting a message to the ancestor of Spirit Beast Mountain.

After hearing this, the ancestor of Spirit Beast Mountain frowned, but turned his gaze to the back of the crowd, a slightly fat monk in the early stages of pill formation.

......

A few months later, Luoyun Sect's meeting hall.

Lu Yuan's face was filled with surprise as he looked at the fat middle-aged Nascent Soul cultivator in front of him.

After a while, he finally said in confusion: "Fellow Daoist Hu, I remember that you were not from the Ghost Spirit Sect before. How did you become the envoy of the Yuling Sect?"
