Cultivation starts from devouring the Dao fruits

Two years flashed by, and Zhao Yu had quietly advanced to the Ninth Layer of the Golden Core, just one step away from reaching the Golden Core Great Perfection.

The war between the Hanlong Empire and the Great Qian Empire remained at a low intensity.

Within a beautiful and luxurious palace in Yunluo Immortal City.

Yunluo Fairy sat upon a throne, looking down at Gong Yangfeng and spoke indifferently, "Little Feng, you said you have important matters to report. What is this important matter?"

"Master, this is a Heaven and Earth Treasure that I have found that can aid Master in breaking through the bottleneck and advance to become a great cultivator of the Late Nascent Soul Stage! Please accept it with a smile, Master!"

Gong Yangfeng, holding a jade box, strode to the front of Yunluo Fairy and opened the box directly.

Yunluo Fairy, who had been stuck at the Six Levels of Nascent Soul for over two hundred years and was never moved by any Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, couldn't help but look towards the box.

At the moment the box was opened, a large amount of pink smoke billowed up, rushing towards Yunluo Fairy.

Yunluo Fairy's face turned cold, and the Spiritual Treasure Green Vine Cauldron flew out instantly. Countless strands of Spirit Silk surged out from the cauldron, enveloping her and forming a green Barrier.

The strange pink smoke was mostly blocked by the green Barrier, but still, a wisp penetrated the green Barrier and entered Yunluo Fairy's body, causing her body to tremble and become extremely stiff as her Mana circulation became very difficult.

Yunluo Fairy's complexion turned pale, staring deathly at Gong Yangfeng, she ground her teeth and said, "Gong Yangfeng, it was you!! My husband was also killed because of the information leaked by you. We raised you from a young age, imparted Cultivation Techniques to you, provided resources for your cultivation, and loved you as if you were our own son. Why did you betray us?"

"Master! The person you loved most was not me, but my junior sister! The rightful heir to the Yunluo Immortal City was supposed to be me, but the moment my junior sister was born, she took away everything that should have been mine."

"I know there is a genuine Infant Solidifying Pill in the city that you prepared for my junior sister, to help her Condense Nascent Soul in the future. I asked for that Infant Solidifying Pill countless times, but you just refused to give it to me."

"Golden Core cultivators have a lifespan of six hundred years, and I have less than thirty years left. Without the Infant Solidifying Pill, there will only be death for me in thirty years. What's wrong with wanting to live?"

"If a person does not seek benefit for themselves, they will be doomed by heaven and earth. The Myriad Changes Demon Sect promised me, as long as I kill both of you, the Infant Solidifying Pill of Yunluo Immortal City will be mine. So please, go ahead and die!"

Gong Yangfeng looked at Yunluo Fairy with a cold gaze and spoke calmly.

"With just you, you think you can kill me?"

Yunluo Fairy's eyebrows lifted slightly, and with a flick of her finger, strands of green silk shot from the Green Vine Cauldron towards Gong Yangfeng.

"Master, I am naturally no match for you! But your opponent isn't me!"

Gong Yangfeng retreated explosively, directly bringing out a silver Spiritual Shield to protect himself.

As the green silk from the Green Vine Cauldron wrapped around, the silver Spiritual Shield was torn to shreds.

"Yunluo Immortal City's Spiritual Treasure, the Green Vine Cauldron, is indeed extraordinary. Yunluo Fairy, for a woman, you are quite remarkable! However, it's unfortunate that you stood in the way of the Myriad Changes Demon Sect, and for that, you must die!"

A tall cultivator, over eight feet high, wearing pitch-black armor, with black long hair and an ice-cold face, strode in, radiating the terrifying aura of the Late Nascent Soul Stage, holding a pitch-black demon blade and slashed down.

A blade as black as ink instantly slashed at the green Spirit Silk shot out by the Green Vine Cauldron; the green Spirit Silk was severed and headed straight for Yunluo Fairy.

Yunluo Fairy's pretty face changed color, and she frantically urged the Green Vine Cauldron, from which countless threads surged out, forming a curtain of green threads to block in front of her.

The ink-black blade light slashed at the curtain of green threads, shredding a large number of them before collapsing and dissipating.

Yunluo Fairy had a massive amount of Mana drained from her, her pretty face turning pale as she gritted her teeth and said, "Myriad Changes Demon Sect? Who are you?"

"Still not dead? The Spiritual Treasure, Green Vine Cauldron, is truly worthy of its name, and the City Lord of Yunluo Immortal City indeed has some skills! I am Feiluo Zhenjun of the Myriad Changes Demon Sect, here to kill you!"

Feiluo Zhenjun's eyes flashed with a murderous light, as he wielded his blade, relentlessly slashing ink-black blade lights at Yunluo Fairy.

Yunluo Fairy quickly activated a forbidden jade talisman and shouted loudly, "Gongyang Feng conspired with external forces and betrayed the Immortal City. The enemy is Feiluo Zhenjun, a great cultivator of the Myriad Changes Demon Sect. Everyone, heed my command, evacuate the Immortal City immediately."

Spiritual Light flashed wave after wave, and the entire Yunluo Immortal City echoed with the voice of Yunluo Fairy.

A dozen breaths later, an ink-black blade light shattered the Barrier made of green Spirit Silk, slicing Yunluo Fairy in two.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

A wave of cultivators surged into Yunluo Immortal City, rampaging with fire and sword, plunging the whole Yunluo Immortal City into hell.

In the darkness of night, two Escape Lights flew toward the ruins of the Mountain Sect, belonging to Yun Jingxuan, the young City Lord of Yunluo Immortal City, and Luo Xinxin.

With bloodshot eyes, Yun Jingxuan sobbed, "Damn it, Gongyang Feng! This beast!! I will never let him go!! No matter the cost, I will kill him to avenge my parents!!"

With eyes just as red, Luo Xinxin ground her teeth and said, "Little junior sister, rest assured, I will join you, and together we will kill him to avenge our master!!"

Luo Xinxin and Gongyang Feng were both geniuses nurtured from a young age by Yunluo Fairy. Aside from not giving them the Infant Solidifying Pill, Yunluo Fairy had never skimped on any other resources. They were the direct line of the direct line of Yunluo Immortal City, which is why Yunluo Fairy never guarded against them.

Gongyang Feng, for the sake of the Infant Solidifying Pill, betrayed Yunluo Fairy, whereas Luo Xinxin was a person of deep feelings and loyalty, harboring an intense hatred for Gongyang Feng and Feiluo Zhenjun, resolved to protect their master's last bit of bloodline.

"Luo Xinxin, hand over Yun Jingxuan!"

A cold voice came from behind, as Gongyang Feng, like a ghost, caught up from behind. His gaze was icy as he looked at Luo Xinxin and Yun Jingxuan, as if staring at two dead people.

"Jingxuan, run! Big brother, just for a mere Infant Solidifying Pill, you betrayed both our master! Has your conscience been eaten by a dog?"

Luo Xinxin pushed Yun Jingxuan away and directly brought out her Lifebound Magic Treasure, the Star Spirit Umbrella, which seemed to be carved from Spirit Jade, drawing the power of the vast stars, and launched the Spirit Umbrella forth.

The glow of countless stars gathered around the Spirit Umbrella, forming numerous starlight flying daggers that shot directly toward Gongyang Feng.

"We cultivators seek eternal life! The master not giving me the Infant Solidifying Pill makes her an obstacle in my path. She who blocks my road to immortality deserves to die!"

"Luo Xinxin, since you also wish to block my path, then go to your death!"

Gongyang Feng's gaze was cold as he brought forth his Lifebound Magic Treasure, the Star Dragon Spear—a spear of one zhang, wrapped in the brilliant light of stars—and launched it directly at Luo Xinxin to pierce her.
