After the old man finished everything, he turned to Tang Luor and said,
"Girl, you should go home. The Tang family must be worried about you. I'll take you back." The old man spoke calmly.
"I..." Tang Luor continued to gaze longingly at the place where Ye Xiu had disappeared.
The old man then turned to Ji Tongzhou and said,
"You can seal that box now. If it possesses you again, no one will be able to help you. You should take that brother and leave; no one here can stop you."
"Understood."
"Disciple, I will pass on all my knowledge to you. Once you have learned it, do whatever you wish."
Ji Tongzhou left with Zhao Wentong, who was lost in thought. The arriving group surprisingly made way for them as they watched them depart.
"Everyone disperse," the old man commanded, pulling Tang Luor away.
Tang Luor's gaze remained fixed on the spot where Ye Xiu had been.
An old man led a girl away.
No one obstructed them.
Those who had come to capture the Demon and gain credit looked at the hellish scene before them, each with their own thoughts.
In the end, they all left.
Only the remnants of the Maple Whisper Tower and the Hehuan Sect remained, along with a complete yet unseen corpse—Ye Xiu.
The members of the Final Dao Alliance came here to clean up the battlefield, trembling at the sight of blood and debris scattered everywhere.
Fights among Cultivators are rarely this bloody.
The leader of the Dao Alliance, Haitai Ping, personally arrived at the Four Symbols Formation but found nothing, not even the corpse of Ye Xiu.
The final outcome was that the sects led by the Dao Alliance forced Ye Xiu to his death, while his remaining followers fled in disarray.
However, Ji Tongzhou's fearsome demeanor as a killing god spread like wildfire throughout the Cultivation World, overshadowing the truth of Ye Xiu's death.
In the Meditation World.
Ye Xiu's body was lifted by the White Void, ascending into the air.
Then, the White Void enveloped Ye Xiu, flowing into his body through his seven orifices, gradually repairing his internal organs.
However, the speed of recovery was painfully slow; after all, this body was merely a spiritual vessel!
His true body was being manipulated by an old man in another space.
If the spiritual vessel could be repaired quickly enough for Ye Xiu to come back to life, it would take far too long. Even divine abilities cannot restore a soul that quickly.
Once Ye Xiu's spiritual vessel is repaired, how he would return to his true body would pose another challenge.
Moreover, finding a way out of this Meditation World was yet another dilemma.
The Earth would continue to turn without anyone; however, karma cycles back and forth.
That ethereal old man brought Tang Luor back to the Tang family but left without even entering their door.
Tang Luor thanked the old man for everything he had done and earnestly requested his name.
The old man simply replied, "Girl, no need to thank me. If you wish to express your gratitude, thank your boyfriend, Ye Xiu."
"Could it be that you and Ye Xiu..."
"You don't need to guess. I have never met Ye Xiu. Farewell."
With that, the old man vanished...
This old man truly appeared and disappeared mysteriously...
The news of Ye Xiu's death had already spread throughout the Cultivation World, and members of prominent families like Jiang Baixuan and Xie Bei received this terrible news immediately.
Moreover, another significant event was about to unfold.
That was the execution of the Demon—Yan Changting.
Yan Changting's identity and his connection to Cultivation were well known by all.
Executing a Cultivator of the Jade Clarity realm was a major spectacle for the Dao Alliance.
The Cultivation World began to buzz with excitement.
Behind the scenes, the Maple Whisper Tower was becoming increasingly active, and their overall strength was rapidly growing.
Ever since the deaths of the father and son from Maple Whisper Tower, a masked Cultivator had joined their ranks and directly became the Chief Elder.
Now, there was no sect leader in Maple Whisper Tower; the Chief Elder held the greatest power. Under his leadership, Maple Whisper Tower had changed most of its cultivation techniques. As a result, they had already produced Cultivators from the Spirit Realm, and there were countless high-level Cultivators from the Spirit Jade Realm.
However, this news was known only to those within the Maple Whisper Tower. To the outside world, it merely seemed that they had grown stronger, but they were still far behind the Dao Alliance.
As for why the Maple Whisper Tower chose to conceal their current strength, the reasons remained unknown, but it was certain that there was some grand conspiracy at play.
At the moment when the Maple Whisper Tower was rapidly developing, various factions were also stirring beneath the surface.
Many hidden families began to emerge.
The authorities of the Cultivation World were likely set off by the mention of the Seven Lives Sect, triggering a series of chain reactions.
In the past, Yan Changting had protected the Tang family among the major sects. Now that Yan Changting had fallen, the Tang family could not escape becoming a target for everyone.
Thus, when Tang Luor returned, the entire Tang family decided to relocate.
As one of the Eight Major Sects from ancient times, the Tang family naturally possessed deep roots. Therefore, no one could obstruct their escape. Utilizing their own means, they managed to move unnoticed into the desolate mountains of the northwest. It was said that this place was once known as Buzhou Mountain!
The actions of the Tang family demonstrated the foresight of their current leader, Tang Zun.
Having received a complete Mind Method from Yan Changting, the Tang family chose to temporarily retreat into seclusion in order to cultivate diligently. They planned to return when their cultivation levels surged, seeking revenge for grievances and settling scores.
The Ghost Arts Sect was reluctant to be associated with the Dao Alliance and thus refused to interact with other sects within Ming Zhong University.
After Dao Alliance's first purge, Anxu from Ming Zhong University managed to escape.
Now, the chaos caused by Qian Fatty around the world had begun to settle down.
This month passed quickly, but for Tang Luor, time felt monotonous and dull. In Buzhou Mountain, demons roamed freely; if it weren't for the Boundary of the Guardian Gate passed down through generations in the Tang family, they would have long ceased to exist.
Zhao Wentong worked particularly hard alongside Ji Tongzhou to learn spells. For him, his motivation stemmed from a love for these extraordinary abilities and an eagerness to avenge his friend Ye Xiu. In Ji Tongzhou's eyes, Zhao's innate talent for spiritual energy might not be high, but his aptitude for spell formations was exceptional—far surpassing his own abilities.
Qian Jinyu's spiritual power was growing rapidly. Despite not studying the Mind Method or practicing, his spiritual energy increased just as quickly as those who had. In just a month, Qian Jinyu reached the upper level of the Spirit Jade Realm. His spiritual energy became even more robust, and on several occasions, his father noticed a white halo surrounding him, nearly mistaking him for a Buddha descending to bless his son.
To avoid unnecessary trouble, Qian Jinyu used his father's resources to build an underground house for himself, choosing to live there permanently. He understood that such rapid growth would surely attract attention from the Cultivation World.
However, above Qian Fatty's underground dwelling, the land was lush with flourishing flowers and plants, and the trees grew at an astonishing rate. Eventually, the workers had no choice but to cover that area with cement.
Tomorrow would be the Exorcism Ritual hosted by the Dao Alliance!
And the main character was Yan Changting, a disciple of the Seven Lives Sect—a stunningly handsome man who had lived for three thousand years.
