Becoming a true immortal through my descendents' praying

Chapter 227: Chapter 225: Traces of the Demon Clan…

Jiang Xiaobai’s news caused Yang Shi’s body to sway slightly, having just exhausted his strength left him completely devoid of combat power, desperately needing rest, but he forcefully bolstered himself.

He swallowed an expensive Third Grade “Five-Tiger Rejuvenation Pill,” forcibly boosting his strength and rapidly recovering himself.

“Did she say where she was going before she left?”

“I don’t know… Fuqing has grown up and has her own ideas; she rarely tells me her daily plans anymore. Husband, please send someone to find her, I am so worried about her…”

Jiang Xiaobai’s face was full of urgency.

Under normal circumstances, it wouldn’t be a problem. Yang Fuqing had many friends in the Devil Wind Forest, and her own strength was not weak. In addition, with various life-saving treasures given by her two elder brothers at the Cloud Hidden Spirit Sect, not even a Foundation Establishment Stage Demon Beast could capture her.

But now the Demon Beasts were rioting!

Just outside of Bright City, there were six Foundation Establishment Stage Demon Beasts!

Among them was the peak Foundation Establishment Wolf King; even a Martial Saint was killed by its sneak attack.

If it weren’t for the help of the Sky Dragon Army and the Cultivators of Bright City, even Yang Shi himself would have had a hard time killing such a level of Demon Beasts, let alone Yang Fuqing. No matter how many life-saving treasures she had, there was a time when they would run out.

“Three days without return… It’s rare for Fuqing to do so; something must have happened. Go call those little demons over; see if they have any news about Fuqing?”

“Uncle Yang, Juanjuan is here!”

A gust of demon wind passed, and the Fox Demon Juanjuan ran over.

Ever since the five demons submitted, Yang Fuqing had given each of them a human name.

Her face was full of worry: “Boss Fuqing went into the Devil Wind Forest with Xiongba, Pei Qi, and the Ant King. She said she perceived a new Demon Clan and wanted to see what it was.”

“With the Demon Beasts rioting, it’s definitely other Demon Clans causing trouble… The Demon Clan that came this time is probably not any good demons; you all must go and rescue her quickly!”

Yang Shi’s eyebrows furrowed upon hearing this.

“Demon Clan… indeed, just as Hu Yue said.”

Last year, Hu Yue visited the Devil Wind Forest many times, mentioning she had discovered traces of a new Demon Clan. Although their Cultivation wasn’t very high, they were skilled in concealment and manipulation, inciting the Demon Beasts living in the ancient areas of the Devil Wind Forest to run out, launching multiple strikes against Cultivators exploring the forest.

This also caused great setbacks for the Cultivators of the Danai Dynasty incessantly exploring and developing the Devil Wind Forest, resulting in the loss of many newly opened Spirit Fields and cultivation grounds. The waystations built by various Family Cultivators were repeatedly destroyed by the Demon Beasts, leading to enormous losses.

But this group of Demon Clan was very crafty, and even the powerful Hu Yue couldn’t find them.

At this moment, Ding Zhen flew over on his Thunderbolt Sword.

“Junior Brother, today’s Demon Beast assault on the city is quite strange. Demon Beasts usually act individually, having a sense of territory; now, many different types of Demon Beasts have actually teamed up to launch an attack on us… There must be some demon causing trouble behind the scenes. Xiaoqing might have discovered something… I will go with you to find Xiaoqing.”

Meanwhile, Yang Fujian, who had been out exterminating Demon Beasts with the main force, returned upon hearing the news and turned to walk towards the outskirts of Bright City.

The four swords on his back were trembling, brimming with a murderous aura!

Those familiar with Yang Fujian knew, this meant bloodshed was imminent.

All Demon Beasts daring to stand in his way would only be pierced through the heart by a long sword!

“Come back! Where are you going?” yelled Yang Shi.

“I’m going to rescue my sister,” he replied.

Yang Fujian did not stop his steps.

“Do you know where your sister is?”

“I have ‘Divine Skills: Seeking;’ boundless heaven and earth, tracing thousands of miles!” @@novelbin@@

Yang Fujian inhaled air into his nostrils, the scent unique to Yang Fuqing separated from the rest and formed two strands of True Qi visible only to him, drifting towards the depths of the Devil Wind Forest.

“I’ve perceived her!”

Yang Fujian, having absorbed many Demon Beasts, possessed a variety of Divine Skills. He had acquired this particular skill from a canine Demon Beast, which allowed him to find people or objects based on scent, and it was extremely useful.

Watching Yang Fujian run off into the distance, Yang Shi caught him with a single hand, his powerful True Qi reaching through the air to pull Yang Fujian back. With his neck stiffened, Yang Fujian still tried to run off, but Yang Shi’s voice came to his ears like that of a mosquito.

“Don’t rush, listen to what the ancestor has to say.”

[Divine Skills: Voice Transmission], a method of secret message delivery, allowed his voice to appear in the other party’s ears, undetectable by the Divine Sense of any cultivator.

Upon hearing this, Yang Fujian finally behaved.

Yang Shi sighed. Since childhood, this child had been stubborn, not even eight horses could pull him back from something he was set on, only the name of the ancestor could make this kid listen a little.

Yang Shi looked up at the sky, and right on cue, Yang Genshuo provided guidance.

[Manifestation].

“Fuqing is not in any immediate danger, so don’t worry too much, but indeed it will be difficult for her to escape on her own. Take a few cultivators skilled in concealment with you, and there might be unexpected gains…”

If a member of the Yang Family fell into danger, Yang Genshuo would send a warning. Had it been urgent, he would have already instructed Yang Shi to send someone to rescue Yang Fuqing.

While Yang Shi was leading people in a fierce battle against the Demon Beasts, Yang Fuqing was in the nest of the Demon Beasts, having found the Demon Clan she had been seeking for a year…

After the Demon Beasts drove the cultivators out of the Devil Wind Forest, they launched an assault on human cities. The behind-the-scenes machinations of the Demon Clan had been a bit careless and had slipped up, attracting the watchful eye of Yang Fuqing, who had been on the lookout in advance.

These were not just a few members of the Demon Clan, but a group of demons… They were of different kinds, but each had a black Rune on their head, suggesting an affiliation with a certain organization.

One of them, a long-horned demon with blood-red skin, sent out transparent ripples from the horns on its head, radiating outwards. The Demon Beasts became agitated and restless upon contact with these ripples, pacing back and forth.

Using Immortal Law, Yang Fuqing saw these ripples and noted that they didn’t cause much harm. However, once touched by them, one would feel dizzy, and an inexplicable rage would surge, causing extreme irritability.

‘Mingxin Technique!’

As the Cultivation Technique circulated, clarity returned to her mind. Unlike other Martial Cultivator techniques that enhanced various abilities, this one simply brought clarity of mind and a deeper understanding of her own talents.

Thus, it was perfectly suited to counteract these ripples.

‘Is it this long-horned demon causing the Demon Beast riot? Silently causing numerous Demon Beasts to leave their territory and become aggressive, this ability poses too great a threat.’

Yang Fuqing could sense the emotional fluctuations of the Demon Beasts and the Demon Clan. The Demon Beasts around her were accumulating anger, and when they couldn’t take it anymore, they would surely go mad and do all sorts of crazy things.

‘However, such ripples can agitate the Demon Beasts… but not enough to unite them against humans.’

‘At best, they could only fight each other, so Aunt Hu Yue was right about the Demon Clan… there must be others.’

There were only 10 of the Demon Clan in front of her, besides the long-horned demon, there were other various demons. However, they hardly spoke, instead patrolling the area vigilantly and constantly gathering any resources they could find.

Spiritual Medicine, Spirit Food, materials…

One of the demons, a large leather-skinned beast, stretched out its hide like a big house. The various demons stuffed all the collected materials into its hide, which was a magnificent sight.

‘It seems they are lacking all kinds of resources and are hoarding everything… This must be just one of the scouting and spellcasting squads, there must be other demons.’

Yang Fuqing hid in the shadows, transforming herself into a giant snake, the form of the Soul Seal Spirit Beast in her Soul Seal, her physical body also taking on the shape of a giant snake coiled around a tree.

It was an ability that came with her Cultivation Technique, allowing her to mimic the form and aura of her Soul Seal Spirit Beast, making it very difficult to distinguish.

That was also why she dared to come alone to stake out the Demon Clan’s traces.

If she had brought Yang Fujian with her, it would have been counterproductive for concealment.

But at this moment… she had been lying on the tree for two days already.

Mimicking the aura of a Spirit Beast, her Spiritual Power was continuously decreasing, and her body was gradually growing fatigued.

Just then, a demon ran up to the Iron Spirit Tree below her and raised its axe.

Clang clang clang!

It began chopping.

‘This is bad! The wood of this Iron Spirit Tree is First Grade material for Artifact Refining!’
