Chapter 1542 - 1389: My Younger Brother Is a Villain 86
All disciples of the Beast Taming Sect who were out have been recalled, the Mountain Protection Array is fully activated, allowing entry but not exit. Everyone, including the elders in seclusion, must let Fan Shushi take a look to determine if they have been possessed by the Blood Demon.
Fortunately, possession by the Blood Demon is not without restrictions; it must be of the same level to possess, and those with too firm a temperament cannot be possessed, so not many in the Beast Taming Sect were possessed by the Blood Demon.
The final result was not bad, only two elders at the Out-of-Body Stage were possessed by the Blood Demon, and most of the others possessed were cultivators with low cultivation levels, which did not significantly impact the Beast Taming Sect.
After checking all the disciples of the sect, the people of the Beast Taming Sect went busily to The Unreturning Peaks to assist the Six-winged Golden Light Roar.
After leaving the Beast Taming Sect, Nie Shuangshuang and Fan Shushi went on tirelessly to the next nearest sect, the Hundred Ghosts Alliance.
The Hundred Ghosts Alliance didn’t take much time since they are all ghost cultivators without physical bodies, so the ghost demons couldn’t possess them, almost wasting no time at all.
Then it was the Heavenly Mechanism Sect, Feihua Valley, once the Four Great Immortal Sects were dealt with, it was other smaller sects, like the Dan Dao Sect, Hundred Strange Sect, Illusion Sound Sect, which were slightly less in stature than the Four Great Immortal Sects.
The Dan Dao Sect and Hundred Strange Sect were processed quickly, these are a sect focused on Alchemy and a sect focused on Artifact Refining, with little combat power.
The Blood Demon couldn’t consume elixirs or command magic artifacts and treasures, the power systems are different, combined with the students’ weak combat power, being possessed wouldn’t enhance their combat power, so the Blood Demon had the least interest in the Dan Dao Sect and Hundred Strange Sect.
Therefore, the Dan Dao Sect and Hundred Strange Sect were fortunately among the sects with the least possession by the Blood Demon.
After knowing about the troubles in The Unreturning Peaks, both sects expressed that they would make elixirs and artifacts without limit to supply other sect disciples to exterminate the Blood Demon.
This is the foundation for the existence of these two sects, the Dan Dao Sect and Hundred Strange Sect, being sects with weak combat abilities. The Hundred Strange Sect is slightly better with life-saving magic treasures, while the Dan Dao Sect relies entirely on bribing fighters with elixirs.
Such weak sects being able to exist in an exalted manner for so long is greatly related to their methods of dealing with matters.
In the internal sect struggles of the Cultivation World, the Dan Dao Sect and Hundred Strange Sect never intervened, maintaining a high and cold demeanor.
However, in situations like the Blood Demon’s havoc, which they couldn’t exert force, these two sects would always contribute money, magic treasures, and elixirs generously, sparing no wealth.
Thus, whenever the Cultivation World faced a calamity, the Dan Dao Sect and Hundred Strange Sect always had great merit in the Cultivation World, which is one of the crucial reasons these sects can stand in the Cultivation World.
After leaving the Dan Dao Sect and Hundred Strange Sect, Nie Shuangshuang and Fan Shushi went to several other sects and families, and then in sequence, the two finally reached the Illusion Sound Sect.
Although they had no goodwill toward the Illusion Sound Sect, Nie Shuangshuang did not expect the Illusion Sound Sect would become the most troublesome sect she encountered on her journey.
In the past few days, Nie Shuangshuang and Fan Shushi have caused quite a stir, and the size of the sects in the Cultivation World has already been alerted and knows the reason. Therefore, even before Nie Shuangshuang and Fan Shushi arrived, these sects and families had already made preparations.
For example, recalling all disciples and clansmen, activating the Protection Array, forbidding disciples from leaving the sect, forbidding clansmen from leaving the family, waiting for Nie Shuangshuang to arrive and help check if any disciples or clansmen have been possessed by the Blood Demon.
However, when Nie Shuangshuang and Fan Shushi arrived at the Illusion Sound Sect, the sect’s entire Mountain Protection Array was activated, yet it was in a state of completely refusing Nie Shuangshuang and Fan Shushi entry, and the Mountain Protection Array even showed signs of attacking Nie Shuangshuang.
This reaction is simply "three hundred taels of silver here," Nie Shuangshuang didn’t mince words, directly resorting to violence, blowing open the opponent’s Mountain Protection Array, and charged into the Illusion Sound Sect.
Fan Shushi followed Nie Shuangshuang inside, and when they entered, everyone in the Illusion Sound Sect was already prepared for battle, led by Su Hua.
Beside Su Hua, Vice Sect Leader Liang Youzhang and another Vice Sect Leader were there too, no need to say, these two were also possessed by the Blood Demons.
Fan Shushi’s eyes glowed with golden light as they scanned the people surrounding the two in the Illusion Sound Sect, after the golden light passed, Fan Shushi’s face turned terribly grim.
He shook his head at Nie Shuangshuang and sighed, "No one is left alive, everyone here has already been possessed by the Blood Demon."
Even without Fan Shushi’s words, Nie Shuangshuang already knew that the Illusion Sound Sect had probably been taken over by the Blood Demon, because when her Divine Sense was released, she saw a bloody scene in the Forbidden Land of the Illusion Sound Sect.
Since becoming a Loose Immortal, the range of Divine Sense that Nie Shuangshuang could use has become even broader, with just a sweep of her Divine Sense, the area covered was unimaginably vast.
The Illusion Sound Sect is just a sect, no matter how large the territory, it was completely visible under Nie Shuangshuang’s Divine Sense.
Consequently, Nie Shuangshuang saw in a cave in the back mountain of the Illusion Sound Sect, piled with countless dead bodies!
Judging by the attire of these bodies, they were all from the Illusion Sound Sect, without needing to say, these were the disciples and elders of the Illusion Sound Sect who were unwilling to be controlled by the Blood Demon.
Nie Shuangshuang’s face darkened slightly, she truly hadn’t expected that the Blood Demons in the Illusion Sound Sect would be so crazy as to possess and massacre the entire Illusion Sound Sect!
Su Hua glared at Nie Shuangshuang with eyes full of hatred, blaming their failed plan on her. Clenching her teeth, she raised a hand without wasting words, launching an attack directly at Nie Shuangshuang.
Those Blood Demons who had been possessing for a long time, including Su Hua, began playing the qin, blowing the flute, and dancing with the pipa, launching a sound attack at Nie Shuangshuang.
The other Blood Demons, who had not completely assimilated the body and gained the strength and skills of the body’s master due to the short possession time, used methods typical of the Blood Demons to attack.
Unfortunately, their attacks, no matter how sharp, were not enough in the face of Nie Shuangshuang, who was already a Loose Immortal. She used Thousand Silk Entanglement to restrain them one after another, and then Fan Shushi turned them into dust.
After dealing with the Illusion Sound Sect, without much time to think, Nie Shuangshuang took Fan Shushi to rush to other Immortal Sects, busy to the point of wishing she could split herself into eight parts.
Fortunately, after the Four Great Immortal Sects settled into The Unreturning Peaks, they freed up the Six-winged Golden Light Roar clan, who could spare a few clansmen to help identify those possessed by the Blood Demon.
With the help of Nie Shuangshuang’s master, Lingtian True Monarch, and those Loose Immortal True Immortals in the Cultivation World who all came out of seclusion to help, the huge hidden crisis in the Cultivation World was finally navigated with no danger.
Although everyone felt the busy period lasted long, in fact, from start to finish, it took only three months.
Lingtian True Monarch had already broken through to a half-step Golden Immortal during this retreat, and was close to ascending, he wouldn’t have come out of seclusion if it weren’t for the Cultivation World’s plight.
Upon emerging from seclusion, he saw his precious disciple had already become a Loose Immortal, happily giving Nie Shuangshuang a heap of Magic Treasures and resources for cultivation, then returned to continue his seclusion.
Now that Nie Shuangshuang is a Loose Immortal, no one in the Cultivation World can bully her anymore, so this time Lingtian True Monarch prepared for a direct breakthrough to Golden Immortal to ascend to the Upper Realm, waiting for Nie Shuangshuang to ascend to find him.
