I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 1323: Chapter 729 Ten-thousand-year Warm Jade Chapter 1323: Chapter 729 Ten-thousand-year Warm Jade After Kong Lingling’s head had fallen, the Demonic Sacred Embryo that had been struggling ceased its movements.

However, Zhou Shengqing did not relax his vigilance—the Wood Cage Prison still bound it tightly, allowing no chance for escape.

“I’ll go inside and check on Yu Lian’s condition; as for Kong Lingling’s storage bag, I’ll trouble Shixiong to examine it.”

Chen Mobai, concerned for what was behind the ice wall, obtained some elixirs from Zhou Shengqing and Fu Zongjue that a Foundation Establishment practitioner could use to recover Elemental Energy, and promptly cast the Underworld Array.

The Rank-4 Spirit Leaf Talisman continued to work.

It was like a green light shield wrapping the unconscious Yu Lian.

Unless someone actively dispelled it, Chen Mobai estimated it would take about half a month to dissipate.

Such was the power of a Nascent Soul.

A hastily conjured Defensive Magic Talisman, which would require full effort and even sustained attacks for a Golden Core Cultivator to potentially break through, was to them a mere flick of the wrist.

Chen Mobai removed the Spirit Leaf Talisman, took Yu Lian’s pulse, and found his Spiritual Power was nearly drained, his vitality severely depleted, as if he had been regularly bled.

Fortunately, a faint, enduring warmth in his heart kept his life force stable.

Chen Mobai recalled Yu Lian once mentioned he took a Fire Lotus as a child; unexpectedly, its medicinal power lingered to this day.

Selecting an elixir to restore Elemental Energy, Chen Mobai placed it in Yu Lian’s mouth, then drew a Rank-2 Resurrection Talisman on the spot and slapped it onto his body.

Lastly, he infused a strand of his Spiritual Power into Yu Lian, using the Flame Lighting Technique to aid Yu Lian in refining and absorbing the elixir’s potency.

Under his careful attention, Yu Lian finally awoke.

“Sect Leader…”

Yu Lian opened his eyes and saw Chen Mobai in front of him; he struggled to rise and pay his respects but was immediately stopped by Chen Mobai.

“Rest well. Kong Lingling has been slain by us—the place is now safe.”

Upon hearing this, Yu Lian’s tense body immediately relaxed.

Perhaps another quarter of an hour passed, and the elixir’s effects were fully absorbed, bringing a slight flush of color to his pale and thin cheeks. Chen Mobai then fed him a Fasting Pill.

Though tasteless, the pill could provide all the nutrients necessary for bodily functions.

“Sect Leader, Kong Lingling raised a man-eating demonic beast.”

Having regained some vigor, Yu Lian rose and reported to Chen Mobai, who nodded, indicating he already knew.

“These corpses must be what Kong Lingling fed to the demonic beast—truly an act of utter depravity.”

Chen Mobai’s expression grew colder as he gazed upon the plethora of bones strewn about the cave.

Even if one did not practice Demonic Cultivation Techniques, such conduct was indistinguishable from the Demon Path.

“Sect Leader, there is something else. Among these skeletons is one of the Sect’s long missing Shixiong, Fu.”

Yu Lian disclosed another piece of news that shocked Chen Mobai. Following Yu Lian’s indication, he approached one of the skeletons.

It was a dry skeleton, clothed in the dark silver Dao robes of a past elder from the Penalty Evil Hall of the Divine Wood Sect—garb that only a Foundation Establishment Elder had the right to wear. Hanging on the skeleton’s waist was a jade token engraved with the character “Fu.”

It was given to Fu Xingzhou when he had just begun Qi Cultivation, a token of Fu Zongjue’s happiness.

Fu Zongjue had circulated the matter of the missing Fu Xingzhou throughout the Sect to assist in the search.

After being captured here, Yu Lian remained bound, able to do nothing but be periodically bled.

Kong Lingling did not expect him to escape, knowing his connection to Fu Xingzhou, deliberately mentioned the matter after a cultivation session.

Perhaps she had suppressed it for too long.

After all, cultivating Demonic Cultivation Techniques, she did not dare reveal everything even to her Direct Disciples. She only told them that she had nurtured a Saint Embryo capable of Nascent Soul Formation; whenever the Heavenly Demon Avatar was around, it was veiled in a mist of ice.

So, when confronted with Yu Lian who was fated to be drained of Spiritual Power and Essence Blood to death, she couldn’t help but reveal many deep-seated secrets.

She even disclosed to Yu Lian that the Demonic Sacred Embryo was conceived from the combination of Fu Xingzhou’s Yuan Yang and her Original Yin.

Another secret that caused Yu Lian much pain was that the swift downfall of the Silver Sky Sect after they moved to Snow Country was due to her machinations.

Apart from coveting the legacy of Eternal Sect, she found the Silver Sky Sect, located not far from this cave, an eyesore.

The more Yu Lian knew, the more he despaired.

For that meant his death was ever nearer—he had never imagined he would be rescued by Chen Mobai.

“Alas, I should go out and inform Fu Shixiong.”

Chen Mobai, upon hearing this, was also stunned. Remembering the monster’s form, he sighed before speaking.

The news that Fu Zongjue had come to his rescue moved Yu Lian profoundly, his sense of belonging to the Sect reaching its peak at this moment.

Outside the ice wall!

When Fu Zongjue heard of Fu Xingzhou’s death, his face etched with grief, he turned to smash Kong Lingling’s corpse into bits, venting his inner fury.

Chen Mobai promptly shared another piece of news with him.

When Fu Zongjue heard that the Demonic Sacred Embryo was the child of Fu Xingzhou and Kong Lingling, he stood there, stunned.

Even Zhou Shengqing’s eyes widened, disbelieving.
