A mysterious young man, later identified as Jiang Huang, appears and effortlessly defeats a powerful squid demon spirit that was attacking the disciples of the Su Ling Sect. He saves them and warns them not to speak of the event before disappearing. The demon cave then dissipates, and a new Spirit Cave forms, offering a promising opportunity for cultivation. The disciples decide to stay and cultivate, while Jiang Huang, revealed to be Luo Chen, parts ways with them, feeling he has repaid their kindness. He then heads towards the Central Demon Abyss, anticipating even greater opportunities there.

A demon spirit comparable to a Void Refining True Monarch!

Luo Chen had considered that within the Central Demon Abyss, there might be extremely powerful entities, possibly even surpassing the Divine Transformation level.

Yet, upon seeing it in person, he still found it somewhat unbelievable.

The Demon Suppression Trial is held once every thousand years.

Over tens of thousands of years, the Nine Great Saint Sects have frequently sent Divine Transformation Great Powers here, conducting a thorough cleansing with each trial.

It is a cleansing from the outside in, akin to a sieve.

In other words, the current batch of demon spirits has naturally formed in the past thousand years.

In a millennium’s time, even those humans claiming unparalleled comprehension and rapid cultivation speed might not reach the Void Refining Stage.

How could such an entity appear here?

Luo Chen had heard, seen, and even carefully observed demon spirits.

These entities are not purely flesh and blood; they are more a mass of demonic qi, with extremely low spirit intelligence.

Most of the time, they don’t wander around, almost entirely occupying various demon caves.

In terms of combat capability, they are not worth mentioning.

Thus, he could easily cross orders and slay those fifth-tier demon spirits.

As for other Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators, their inability to achieve such feats is truly due to the environmental restrictions here, severely suppressing their strength.

Over a millennium, a Refining Void Level demon spirit appeared in the Dark Demon Cave—was it a problem with the Dark Demon Cave, or some bizarre change in the Mystic Realm?

Luo Chen couldn’t figure it out, and perhaps other strong ones in the Mystic Realm were equally clueless about the cause.

He merely watched coldly as the flying bird demon spirit went far away, feeling somewhat relieved.

Such a powerful entity, even within the Demon Abyss, there likely wouldn’t be many like it.

Now that one has mysteriously left, it is indeed a good thing for him to infiltrate the Demon Abyss and find a place to cultivate.

However, those human cultivators outside are probably in for some serious trouble.

Luo Chen maintained his previous hidden state, took a step forward, and directly escaped into the fog-covered Demon Abyss.

...

After several days, what was once the pitch-black lake surface had turned entirely green.

The calm water reflected the dim sky, without a trace of sun or moon, yet the shimmering light had its own kind of charm.

Suddenly!

Something frantically swept across and washed over.

A massive entity leaped over the great lake, its steps unaffected, but already leaving behind a stormy wake.

Beneath the lake.

"Pfft!"

Master You Huang, who had just found a water cave to begin cultivating, suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.

It truly caught her off guard.

The array she had set up with the compass given by the sect elder was broken.

Moreover, it was shattered in the most brutal and violent manner.

With her mind connected, she didn’t have time to prepare and was directly severely injured.

"What kind of entity was it?"

Master You Huang sat on the mat, her body somewhat shaky, with a ghastly pale face.

The enormous commotion outside was naturally felt by more than just her.

Five figures emerged from the lakebed cave mansions they had carved out and gathered at Shuilian Cave where Master You Huang was.

Amidst everyone’s concern, they still looked towards Dean He.

The Seven True of Su Ling were led by him, and he was the one giving orders for this trial.

Under everyone’s gaze, Dean He spoke in a deep voice, "No need to panic. If it were an enemy attacking, they would have already charged in, not giving us time to react. That seemed more like a powerful entity just passing by."

"Passing by?" Yaoxi True Master was incredulous, "What kind of entity can cause such a commotion just passing by?"

Dean He pondered and said, "Perhaps it was done deliberately, to highlight its presence?"

Highlight presence?

Everyone exchanged looks of confusion.

In such an environment, which cultivator wouldn’t want to hide well?

Such loud actions seem almost like seeking death.

Or could it be, that being wasn’t a cultivator but a demon spirit?

But even a fifth-tier demon spirit shouldn’t cause such a ruckus during a flying escape, right?

Master You Huang struggled to stand, "Regardless, we need to set up another concealing array, or else no one can cultivate in peace."

Yaoxi looked worriedly at her, "Your condition?"

Master You Huang rubbed her forehead, "The body is fine, but the divine soul is somewhat damaged. Once the array is set, I’ll need to nurse myself carefully. However, this delay might make it difficult to seize this opportunity."

Yaoxi sighed, "I’ll help!"

The others didn’t just watch; though they weren’t masters of arrays, they had some knowledge. With You Huang leading and them assisting, they could probably set up a decent concealing array.

In the group, a voice suddenly arose.

"Master Uncle, this is for you, perhaps it’ll help."

Master You Huang looked in confusion at the elixir handed over by Jiang Huang, "Nephew?"

Even before she could take it, Dean He had unexpectedly taken it, his eyes brightening.

"This is... such rich pill fragrance, a soul-restorative elixir? As high as the fourth order, where did you get it?"

Jiang Huang hesitated for a moment but ultimately didn’t mention Luo Chen’s name.

Instead, he casually gave an excuse of purchasing it at a high price in the market.

The others weren’t inclined to probe further. After a simple study, Dean He happily handed it to Master You Huang.

With this elixir, Master You Huang might be able to quickly restore her damaged divine soul.

Only Yaoxi True Master, observing her disciple’s profile with a slight frown.

From escaping trouble to participating in the Demon Suppression Trial, Jiang Huang had been with her day and night for the past twenty years, where would there have been time to purchase elixirs in the market?
