Ch 543: The Purpose Of Lurking
Curiosity, once opened, cannot be stopped until the answer is found.
This matter constantly lingered in Lu Yang’s mind, causing him to toss and turn in bed, unable to sleep.
If he wanted to know the answer, starting with the Soul-Eating Demon was undoubtedly the best way, but the opponent self-destructed and died, without leaving any useful information.
Besides that, there was one other person who might be able to find the answer, and that was Zhang Yan.
Zhang Yan had already been caught by the Azure Rainbow Sect and imprisoned in the dungeon, presumably after being severely tortured, and they had asked him for some useful information.
So, early the next morning.
Lu Yang, filled with curiosity, found an Elder of the Azure Rainbow Sect.
When the Azure Rainbow Sect Elder saw Lu Yang’s arrival, he immediately understood the reason for Lu Yang’s visit, and said with a smile, “Little friend wants to ask about the Soul-Eating Demon, right? After a day and a night of interrogation and torture of Zhang Yan, he confessed a lot of information, which is all recorded here.”
After saying that, he handed Lu Yang a booklet.
Logically speaking, the Zhang Yan matter was their Azure Rainbow Sect’s internal affair, and no matter what they asked, they shouldn’t tell Lu Yang, an outsider.
But Lu Yang was different. Without him, they wouldn’t have discovered Zhang Yan, the traitor, and he was the greatest contributor.
So, when the Azure Rainbow Sect Elder finished interrogating Zhang Yan and went to report to the Sect Master, the Sect Master said that if Lu Yang wanted to see it, he could let him look at it.
Firstly, it was to thank Lu Yang for his help, and secondly, it was an attempt to befriend the Longevity Temple.
“You interrogated him so quickly?” Lu Yang was a little surprised.
“I didn’t expect Zhang Yan to confess so readily, and even after confessing, he took his own life when other disciples weren’t paying attention.”
The Azure Rainbow Sect Elder said.
“Then thank you very much.”
Lu Yang became more and more curious, reached out and took the booklet, and read it carefully, trying to find some clues in it.
But unfortunately.
Zhang Yan didn’t seem to know why the Soul-Eating Demon was lurking here, or what its purpose was.
The reason he became a traitor was entirely because the Soul-Eating Demon had swallowed his Younger Sister’s soul.
The Soul-Eating Demon used this to threaten Zhang Yan to work for him, otherwise his Younger Sister would never wake up.
That was why Zhang Yan became a traitor, willingly working for the Soul-Eating Demon.
With Zhang Yan’s help, dozens of innocent commoners were deceived by him and sent to the Soul-Eating Demon, watching helplessly as the Soul-Eating Demon devoured their souls, and finally he would destroy the bodies and eliminate the traces.
It could be said that Zhang Yan’s hands were already covered in sins that could not be washed away.
If Zhang Yan hadn’t been injured recently and recuperating in the Sect, and the Soul-Eating Demon had to do it himself, they probably wouldn’t have been able to discover him until now.
However, after the Soul-Eating Demon died, Zhang Yan learned from the Elder that his Younger Sister’s soul had already been Refined, and he committed suicide in despair.
Lu Yang flipped through the booklet several times.
Finally, he obtained a piece of news that was considered useful.
That was that when Zhang Yan was working for the Soul-Eating Demon, he mentioned that before Zhang Yan entered the Azure Rainbow Sect, he had already been Infiltrating here.
Lu Yang then inquired with the Azure Rainbow Sect Elder and learned the truth of this news.
After they finished interrogating Zhang Yan, they turned the entire Azure Rainbow Sect upside down, and finally discovered a Cave that had been buried in a Dense Forest in the Back Mountain.
Before the Soul-Eating Demon controlled Zhang Yan, it should have usually been Infiltrating in that Cave.
“Cave…”
Lu Yang muttered to himself, and following the Azure Rainbow Sect Elder’s guidance, he arrived in front of that Cave.
It was just that this Cave had been abandoned for a long time, and he naturally couldn’t find any clues.
But suddenly, a flash of inspiration appeared in Lu Yang’s mind.
He thought of the teachings of his Martial Uncle Grand Patriarch at the Longevity Temple to them disciples.
If you are unsure, use the Son of Heaven Qi Gazing Technique.
Since the Soul-Eating Demon had been Infiltrating here for so many years, it was naturally doing something dangerous.
Perhaps using the Son of Heaven Qi Gazing Technique could lead to other discoveries.
Thinking of this, Lu Yang no longer hesitated. As he performed Hand Seal with both hands, a Profound Aura appeared around him.
He could also see things that others could not perceive.
However, when Lu Yang opened his eyes and looked, his Heart was beating non-stop in an instant, and he took a step back abruptly, obviously startled.
“What’s going on?”
There was a hint of trembling in his voice.
At this moment, Lu Yang’s eyes were completely surrounded by a scarlet color, and countless thick red threads were suspended in mid-air, appearing in front of him.
No matter whether he turned his head to look, or turned around to look, the scene he saw was exactly the same.
Endless bloody aura was like a sea of blood, shrouding the entire Azure Rainbow Sect.
The bloody aura was so strong, symbolizing an ominous omen, meaning that the Azure Rainbow Sect was likely to face Annihilation at any time!
Lu Yang instinctively felt that this ominous omen was related to the Soul-Eating Demon.
Perhaps tracing the source of the bloody aura could reveal the Truth.
Lu Yang took a deep breath, and his gaze moved back and forth over the bloody aura.
After spending most of the day, he finally locked onto a patch of Ground covered with weeds in the Dense Forest of the Azure Rainbow Sect’s Back Mountain.
This was the source of the permeating bloody aura.
Then he directly dug at this place, and after digging a Deep Pit of more than ten meters, the culprit finally surfaced.
Lu Yang thought that there was a terrifying Great Formation arranged below, and the thing buried here was the Formation Eye.
However, after seeing That Thing, he was stunned.
“What is this thing?”
Lu Yang’s Gaze narrowed as he looked at the teardrop-shaped thing with an iron-like exterior.
He was very unfamiliar with this Thing, he had never seen it before, and he didn’t even have anything in his memory that could be compared to it.
But for some reason, when he saw this Thing, he felt inexplicably flustered and a little breathless.
It was as if this Thing contained great terror!
And at this time, in the Jianghu.
As the Longevity Temple Disciples train in various places like fish swimming in the sea.
In just one month, the Jianghu had become more lively than before.
The disciples of other Sects in the Jianghu also left their Mountain Gate one after another and began to travel the world.
Of course, the most talked about topic in the Jianghu was the Longevity Temple.
Because the Longevity Temple had Li Hanzhou, the disciples attracted the attention of all Sects when they came into the world.
They were very Curious about what the Strength of these Longevity Temple Disciples were.
So they also let the younger generation disciples of their respective Sects begin to travel the Jianghu and come into contact with them.
However, after contact, they discovered that almost none of the Longevity Temple Disciples traveling the Jianghu were simple characters.
The Longevity Temple Disciples used Daoist Magic that was very old and almost forgotten by them.
Under the Immeasurable Divine Might of Daoist Magic, the Longevity Temple Disciples were in the limelight in the Jianghu, attracting everyone’s attention.
This also made them couldn’t help but recall the era recorded in the Ancient Texts when the Daoist Sect was unusually Prosperous.
They even had an idea in their minds.
Could it be that the Daoist Sect will regain its former brilliance and prosperity under the leadership of the Longevity Temple?
