The Quest for Immortality

”He? Planting Devil in my Taoist Heart?”

This sort of thing was truly perplexing, and for a moment, Mo Hua didn’t know what expression to make, so his face appeared even more blank and dazed.

Young Master Xuan nodded, his voice low with a hint of bewitchment:

”Remember it?”

Mo Hua nods dazedly.

”Repeat it.” Young Master Xuan commanded.

Mo Hua said, ”From this day on, I am your master, and you are my servant.”

”You shall obey my every command.”

”If I let you live, you shall live; if I let you die, you shall die...”

When these words entered his ears, Young Master Xuan froze for a moment, a trace of inexplicable anger rising in his heart.

I asked you to repeat, not to repeat it like this.

In the way you say it, who exactly is whose master?

Young Master Xuan frowned.

”Why is it like this? Did something go wrong with the Planting Devil in the Taoist Heart? Clearly, the other two are fine, no accidents...”

”Or is it that... his Divine Sense is strong, his thoughts keen, so he has resistance to Planting Devil in the Taoist Heart?”

Young Master Xuan glanced at Mo Hua, thinking that his supposition is not without reason. He then took out the Three Realms Token, waved it in front of Mo Hua, and recited the incantation for ”Planting Devil in the Taoist Heart” again.

After reciting, Mo Hua’s eyes dimmed.

He seemed to be pondering, digesting, learning something.

Moments later, Mo Hua looked at Young Master Xuan, his gaze deep and revealing a strange gray, word by word he said:

”This word is the Dao, transforms into a Devil Seed, planted in your heart, neither lost nor perishing...”

Young Master Xuan was slightly startled, his mind in fluctuation, feeling something amiss.

The next moment, Mo Hua again spoke to him in a low voice: ”I shall obey your every command...”

”I shall obey your every command.”

Young Master Xuan’s senses gradually returned, he nodded, and only then did he feel relieved, much more at ease in his heart:

”It’s planted.”

”As expected, such a clever little ghost, one planting is not enough, two is necessary.”

Since he has planted the Devil in his Taoist Heart, he will certainly obey, live if he commands him to live, die if he commands him to die.

This thought remained in Young Master Xuan’s heart as well.

”Follow me...”

Young Master Xuan said to Mo Hua, then turned and arrogantly walked forward.

Mo Hua followed him with a blank stare, meanwhile his mind was filled with heavy thoughts.

This Young Master Xuan actually knows Planting Devil in the Taoist Heart?

Why? .

Is he connected with the Uncle?

Probably unlikely...

His level, not at all resembling someone who’s inherited the Uncle’s legacy.

Even with a thousandth of the Uncle’s level, these Golden Core cultivators would have self-destructively killed each other long ago.

If not the Uncle’s legacy, then it’s the orthodox Demon Sect’s ”Planting Devil in the Taoist Heart”?

Mo Hua had previously researched a bit and knew this method originally wasn’t the Uncle’s ”trademark”, but a heritage from the ancient Demon Gate, the Illusory Demon Sect’s Sect Protecting Faction.

However, although the Illusory Demon Sect’s ”Planting Devil in the Taoist Heart” is cunning and insidious, vicious and bizarre, corrupting minds, making cultivators shudder at its mention, it isn’t truly a top-tier heritage.

But the Uncle’s ”Planting Devil in the Taoist Heart” is vastly different.

Walking the path of the Gui Tao, conferred as ”Taoist”, a Planting Devil in the Taoist Heart deepened by Heavenly secret Tricky Calculation, unique and unparalleled.

And, apparently much stronger than the Illusory Demon Sect’s.

But just how much stronger, no one really knows.

Because those hit by the Gui Tao’s ”Planting Devil in the Taoist Heart”, none seem to survive.

Back then outside Li State City at the Ten Thousand Demons Hall, Mo Hua remembered clearly, so many Golden Cores, including three Feather Transformation Realm Demon Path True Men, also did not speak a word once hit.

Especially in a crowd, hit one, and a whole piece dies.

Mo Hua contemplated a little.

Young Master Xuan’s method of Planting Devil in the Taoist Heart seems to need some kind of Evil Artifact during execution — namely, in his hand, that three-skull-pieced amber-colored token, to confuse minds.

Additionally, needing some kind of ”word curse” as a medium.

This word curse is somewhat lengthy, sometimes saying it once isn’t enough, must be said twice, by which time the yellow flowers have cooled.

But the Uncle is different.

When he wants to Plant Devil in the Taoist Heart, usually a single glance suffices, sometimes even a simple sentence, a thought, or even a name could become a ”seed” for Planting Devil in the Taoist Heart.

The Uncle is really so powerful.

That’s why back then, I stole his techniques.

This Young Master Xuan, is far behind.

Come to think of it, Uncle’s Divine Thought Skill, still called ”Planting Devil in the Taoist Heart”, is also probably evolved from the Illusory Demon Sect’s method.

But now, it’s impossible for me to learn the Uncle’s ”Planting Devil in the Taoist Heart”.

Then, as the next best, study this Young Master Xuan’s basic ”Planting Devil in the Taoist Heart” usage?

”Seems feasible, besides...”

Mo Hua glanced through the corner of his eye at the surrounding Divine Temple, thoughtfully.

This temple appears magnificent, but being sealed by countless corpses in coffins, hidden deep inside, must contain great peril.

What’s to come is still unknown.

And I, a Foundation Building Cultivator, mixing with this group of Golden Core Great Demon Cultivators, really too risky.

Not to mention the late Golden Core stage Demon Sect leaders, late Golden Core stage Bear Demon Cultivator, late Golden Core stage black-robed elder, even facing this ”Young Master Xuan” directly, I am no match.

If careless, showing a flaw, will be suspect, and even bring lethal disaster.

In that case, better to give some ’handle’ out, serve as their ’puppet’, let them be at ease.

Mo Hua looked again at Young Master Xuan walking ahead, a hint of strangeness in his eyes:
