Chapter 640: True Purpose
At this moment, no one can save Jiang Yun.
Xia Zhongxing is in danger, using all his skills along with Dao Spirit to resist Huo Yanghui’s incarnation and colorful flower.
Brother Hei and four others, along with four blood formations, are confronting the eight Dao Spirits of the Ten Thousand Demons Cave, creating a grand momentum.
Although they haven’t shown signs of defeat yet, killing the opponents seems unlikely.
As for the seventy thousand disciples of the Seeking-Tao Sect facing the demon race of four hundred thousand, the situation is even more dangerous.
Although the overall strength of the Seeking-Tao Sect has greatly increased, they found something very strange during the fight with the Ten Thousand Demons Cave, despite having nearly six times the number of people.
Many disciples of the Ten Thousand Demons Cave seemed fearless and unbothered, even facing death.
If they were ever overpowered, they would willingly self-destruct without hesitation, showing no regard for their own lives.
Confused by this situation, everyone couldn’t understand when the disciples of the Ten Thousand Demons Cave had become so strong.
Only Brother Hei was fully aware of the truth!
As a former Demon Lord of the Ten Thousand Demons Cave, he knew that the number of disciples had never exceeded ten thousand, but now there were as many as four hundred thousand.
The extra three hundred thousand were originally demons from the North Mountain!
They were forced to join the Ten Thousand Demons Cave and to ensure their loyalty, Huo Yanghui implanted a fiery seed within their bodies.
As a natural fire demon, Huo Yanghui possessed a unique ability to implant seeds of fire within others’ minds.
This fire seed was completely different from the Demon Seed.
Demon Seed only targets the human race, turning them into demons in order to control the human race.
However, Fire Seed can be planted on any species except the Fire clan.
Its effect is to turn the creatures planted with Fire Seed into one’s own clones!
Once becoming a clone, all their cultivation and memories will belong to someone else.
Initially, Huo Yanghui tried to use Fire Seed on Jiang Yun, but Jiang Yun already had a talent for fire demons, so it failed.
In short, the four hundred thousand demon race now are essentially Huo Yanghui’s clones.
If they die, Huo Yanghui suffers no loss, but if they are alive, all their training will quietly become Huo Yanghui’s.
Even though Brother Hei understands this, he has no solution because he was almost planted with Fire Seed before, luckily he managed to escape in time.
If the Seeking-Tao Sect wasn’t used to relying on formations in battles, and maintaining their formation of nine people regardless of casualties, the self-destruction of the disciples from the Ten Thousand Demons Cave alone would catch them off guard and leave them struggling to cope.
Even so, the seventy thousand people of Seeking-Tao Sect were gradually falling behind, and the number of deaths was increasing at an alarming rate.
It can be said that since leaving Seeking-Tao Sect until now, although they have experienced several battles, the current battle is definitely the most difficult for them.
Fortunately, they have a strong belief in Jiang Yun!
Along the way, besides being impressed by Jiang Yun’s strength, Jiang Yun’s abilities in alchemy, formations, and even strategic thinking have greatly impressed them.
Therefore, they believe that as long as they persevere until Jiang Yun finds a way to break through his predicament, the final victory will still belong to Seeking-Tao Sect!
The current Jiang Yun is indeed in a huge predicament!
Although he knows the situation outside very well, knowing that this is a long-planned battle launched by Ten Thousand Demons Cave against Seeking-Tao Sect, the goal is to completely wipe out Seeking-Tao Sect.
But he can’t be distracted because those blood threads in his body are like leeches, greedily devouring his blood.
He has tried various methods to deal with these blood threads, even using Taoist spells.
Unfortunately, these blood threads are like a ghost clan, unable to be dispersed or destroyed.
What’s even more important is that after these blood threads devoured a large amount of their own fresh blood, they actually merged together with it.
If one truly wants to disperse them all, for example, by burning them with flames, in the end, it will also burn all of Jiang Yun’s own fresh blood completely clean!
"Xue Ranyi!"
Jiang Yun naturally knew that these blood threads were Xue Ranyi!
Xue Ranyi originally was just a drop of blood, under fortuitous circumstances, he gained sentience and became a demon.
His formidable cultivation strength was obtained through devouring the fresh blood of other cultivators.
As for Jiang Yun’s blood, he always had great interest in it, and if not for desiring the secrets on Jiang Yun last time, he would have long sucked Jiang Yun dry of his blood.
Watching Jiang Yun busy dealing with Xue Ranyi, Huo Yanghui coldly smiled, then suddenly pointed his finger at Jiang Yun, and saw a lamp flying out of Jiang Yun’s body!
Flameless Puppet Lantern!
At this moment, the Flameless Puppet Lantern that Jiang Yun had subdued fell into Huo Yanghui’s hands, appearing very obedient.
As Huo Yanghui touched the Flameless Puppet Lantern, a smile spread across his face. "Jiang Yun, do you think you can easily take away this lantern? It is also considered a treasure of my Ten Thousand Demons Cave."
Jiang Yun finally realized that the Flameless Puppet Lantern was actually a treasure of the Ten Thousand Demons Cave!
This means that it is a similar existence to the Hidden Tao Sword.
Though not as powerful as the Hidden Tao Sword, it must still possess remarkable power!
"Moreover, the Flameless Puppet Lantern’s purpose is not as simple as you imagine!"
"You would never guess that it comes from a Demon Refiner, and its true purpose is – refining demons!"
Hearing this, Jiang Yun suddenly remembered that Bai Ze had told him about the strength of Demon Refiners, being able to refine demons into pills.
Demonic pill, in simple terms, is a pill made by refining all the essence of a demon.
Inside this demonic pill are the talents, cultivation, spells, and even the pursuit of the demon.
Jiang Yun never imagined that this Flameless Puppet Lantern actually came from a Demon Refiner.
Its true purpose turns out to be demon refining!
Could it be that Huo Yanghui wants to refine himself into a demonic pill?
But Huo Yanghui is not a demon, nor a Demon Refiner, how could he use this Flameless Puppet Lantern and refine demons?
Just then, a huge suction force suddenly emanated from the Flameless Puppet Lantern, sucking Jiang Yun’s body directly into the lantern.
Immediately after, Huo Yanghui’s body suddenly exploded, turning into a nine-colored flame flower, flying into the Flameless Puppet Lantern as well!
"Xue Ranyi, Jiang Yun, do you know that I have been waiting for this opportunity for too long!"
"The monster from Earth Protection Realm, along with a Demon Refiner, your blood mixed together, then burned with my essence, forming a demonic pill from both of you, enough to help me break through to Sky Blessed Realm!"
Huo Yanghui’s proud voice, Jiang Yun hadn’t reacted yet, but Xue Ranyi already angrily shouted, "Huo Yanghui, you’re despicable!"
Clearly, only at this moment did Xue Ranyi realize that he had also been deceived by Huo Yanghui!
"Elder Blood, rest assured, once I reach the Sky Blessed Realm, I will not forget your help. At that time, I will erect a monument for you in the Ten Thousand Demons Cave, haha!"
"Huo Yanghui! I will never forgive you even if I die!"
Xue Ranyi’s angry voice quickly turned into a scream.
Because the nine-colored flower that Huo Yanghui turned into had fully bloomed, raising the temperature inside the small Flameless Puppet Lantern to an extreme level in an instant!
