A Buddhist monk from the Golden Wheel Temple unleashes a devastating attack, slaughtering the Celestial Net Dao Sect disciples and Fairy Han. Xie Wuyi attempts to extort Li Yunjing, but Li Yunjing uses the chaos to capture Xie Wuyi in his Purple Gold Gourd. Li Yunjing then returns to the Mingjing Commerce Association and begins a Soul Search on Xie Wuyi, discovering the monk's affiliation with the Golden Wheel Temple.

Chapter 1476: Chapter 618: An Unexpected Person, Buddhist Sect’s Scheme

Xie Wuyi’s green robe was stained with blood, and the “Soul-devouring Sword” at his waist was dull and dim as he vigilantly watched the golden-robed monk opposite him.

The monk’s face, which should have been compassionate and peaceful, bore a trace of coldness.

“Evil benefactor, have you considered my offer?”

The golden-robed monk clasped his hands together, his voice low and hoarse.

“Your ‘Golden Wheel Temple’ wants to use the remnants of ancient evil cultivators’ souls suppressed beneath ‘Celestial Net Island’ to cultivate the unethical ‘Asura Calamity Method’?”

Xie Wuyi frowned, his arm trembling slightly: “What does this have to do with me?”

The monk’s lips curled into a malicious smile, and with a gentle wave of his hand, a map appeared on the stone table, revealing the topography of Celestial Net Island, with a huge red skull marked below the island.

“Naturally, you’ll be rewarded well once the mission is accomplished. Besides…”

He paused, a flash of cold light in his eyes, “Do you think I can tolerate you if you don’t agree?”

Xie Wuyi’s face changed drastically, just as he was about to retort, the monk suddenly attacked. A golden chain flew out from his sleeve, instantly entwining around Xie Wuyi’s neck: “Don’t make me punish you instead of offering you a drink!”

The memory image suddenly twisted and shattered at this point, and Li Yunjing snapped his eyes open, cold sweat covering his forehead.

“So Xie Wuyi was controlled by the Buddhist Sect and came to ‘Celestial Net Island’ to cause havoc!”

Li Yunjing murmured to himself, “Yes! The thieves of the Buddhist Sect are ignorant of worldly affairs; they need a pawn to carry out their tasks for them!”

Li Yunjing swiftly made a gesture to retract the Soul Searching Technique, releasing Xie Wuyi’s unconscious body from the gourd.

“Fellow Daoist Yue, the plan has changed.”

He took out a Sound Transmission Talisman, his fingertips flashing with spiritual light: “The Buddhist Sect appeared on ‘Celestial Net Island’, we need to change course towards ‘Ghost Mist Sea’ to retreat.”

Before long, Yue Wuya arrived.

“Fellow Daoist Li, what’s going on?”

Yue Wuya quickly came to Li Yunjing’s room to question him.

The commotion in the city was already suppressed by the ‘Celestial Net Dao Sect’, and the high monk from the Buddhist Sect had been captured alive.

Yue Wuya naturally sensed the battle’s aura, but dared not go out to observe or extend his divine sense, choosing instead to hide his presence, fearing detection by the Celestial Net Dao Sect’s people.

“Here’s what happened!”

Li Yunjing recounted the events he’d experienced from start to finish.

He then pointed at Xie Wuyi, saying, “This person might still be useful. I’ll spare his life to see if he can serve any purpose.”

After hearing Li Yunjing’s recount, Yue Wuya’s face turned pale.

“Is ‘Golden Wheel Temple’ really targeting ‘Celestial Net Dao Sect’?”

He staggered back two steps, barely steadying himself by holding onto the table edge: “There are rumors that at the end of the East Sea is the ‘Buddha Light Continent’, where ‘Golden Wheel Temple’ leads the powerful sect. How have they extended their reach deep into the East Sea?”

He suddenly looked at Li Yunjing urgently: “Fellow Daoist Li, we must leave immediately! ‘Ghost Mist Sea’ is perilous, but it’s better than facing a war between two colossal sects!”

Suddenly, Xie Wuyi, who was lying unconscious, began convulsing violently, black blood seeping from his mouth.

Li Yunjing tore open his shirt to reveal a golden “” character mark on his chest, exuding an eerie glow!

“Not good! It’s a restriction of the Buddhist Sect!”

Yue Wuya exclaimed in horror, “If we keep this person, it might bring endless troubles!”

“Don’t worry!”

Li Yunjing waved his hand and grabbed Xie Wuyi by the collar like a chicken, stuffing him into the “Purple Gold Gourd.”

“A spatial magical treasure?”

Yue Wuya stared at the “Purple Gold Gourd” in shock, his voice stammering.

“Hmm!”

Li Yunjing made a gesture with his fingers, sealing the “Purple Gold Gourd,” completely isolating the light of the golden “” mark.

“There’s no time.”

Li Yunjing interrupted Yue Wuya’s shock, saying: “‘Celestial Net Dao Sect’ will surely soul-search the captured ‘Golden Wheel Temple’ monk and obtain their intelligence! We must leave.”

“Alright! I’ll immediately arrange the cargo and prepare for departure!”

Yue Wuya nodded heavily and turned to walk out.

When night fell, Yue Wuya returned, a hint of exhaustion in his demeanor: “Finally sorted it out! We can pass through the port; let’s go!”

“Alright!”

Li Yunjing nodded, and together with over a hundred people from “Wuya Sect,” they returned to the dock and boarded their spiritual boat.

The spiritual boat slowly left the port, Li Yunjing stood at the bow, his gaze sweeping vigilantly over the surrounding sea regions, his palm tightly gripping the “Boundary-Breaking Sword.”

Just in case “Celestial Net Dao Sect” blocked their departure, he was ready to escape alone.

Yue Wuya directed the disciples to operate the spiritual boat, occasionally glancing at Li Yunjing, full of concern.

As night deepened, the sea surface flickered with an eerie blue glow, schools of shadow-feeding fish swam beneath the boat, their scales reflecting a chilling light.

Like Li Yunjing and his group, other shrewd merchant bands emerged from the port, keen to avoid this troublesome place.

Meanwhile, in the main hall of “Celestial Net Dao Sect,” the ‘Golden Wheel Temple’s’ scheme had been uncovered.

The assembled Nascent Soul Realm Masters from “Celestial Net Dao Sect” held a high-level meeting with solemn expressions.

During the meeting, someone even suggested the sect leader return immediately from the front lines, as the ‘Golden Wheel Temple’s’ plot was more lethal than that of the ‘Shenxiao Dao Sect’!

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Li Yunjing and his group were already far from the vicinity of “Celestial Net Island.”

“Alas, ‘Celestial Net Sea Region’ is no place to stay, every step is fraught with danger!”

Standing at the bow, even someone as steadfast as Li Yunjing couldn’t help but sigh deeply.
