186 The Contamination of the Devil’s Intent
The news that two Incarnation stage cultivators fought spread throughout the Cave Lake Realm in just a few days.
The vitality of heaven and earth surged, and the nomological powers intersected.
It allowed the cultivators of the Cave Lake Realm to truly witness the power of an Incarnation stage lord cultivator. As for the Nascent Soul stage cultivators, they were all shocked and terrified.
It was because, in the past, Incarnation stage lord cultivators rarely had such a life-and-death battle. They would often stop after sparring for a while.
Afterward, something strange happened.
On this day, the 12 lands of the Cave Lake Realm’s “five ‘immortals’ and 12 lands” were in an uproar as if they had all agreed on something.
The first to be breached was the territory controlled by the Zhudao Sect, and the source of the Sin Beasts surged out.
The Demon-extinguishing Sea was in chaos.
After that, all the Sin Beasts within disappeared.
The Zhudao Sect’s suppression of the Sin Beasts, which had managed to escape, also vanished!
However, it wasn’t a good thing.
It was because, on this day, the devil’s intent of being “arrogant” and “presumptuous” took the opportunity to spread across the entire Cave Lake Realm.
Fortunately, the other 11 immortal sects had successfully suppressed them with sealing-type spiritual items again.
…
“It’s a little strange…”
Fang Jinyu, who still couldn’t think of a way to deal with the matter, suddenly felt that there was something strange about himself. His consciousness was inexplicably at a loss, and he was in a daze for a moment.
At this moment, his magic treasure, the lightning-attribute mountain, flew out by itself. Dense thunderbolts descended and enveloped him.
“Thud! Thud!”
Above the mist, an unknown force appeared.
The scene naturally caused Fang Jinyu’s expression to change drastically.
It was a sign that someone had interrupted his luck.
In his vision, An Ruyin, who had used the gourd to reconstruct her body, looked rather strange.
It was especially true when Fang Jinyu saw the pretty face on the gourd. Her expression kept changing. Sometimes she was sad, sometimes she was happy, sometimes she was resentful, and sometimes she was excited. She acted out all the emotions.
Fang Jinyu couldn’t help but ask, “Sister An, what’s wrong?”
“It’s fine. I just thought of some things in the past and felt that it wasn’t worth it for you.” An Ruyin’s voice was normal, and her expression had calmed down. However, Fang Jinyu felt that something was wrong.
Fang Jinyu asked, “Why is it not worth it?”
An Ruyin said, “How can Qianqian be worthy of you? For a person like you, no matter what, your cultivation partner must be a cultivator who has an immortal seed and has formed a grade 1 core! Moreover, she has to rank 9 in the Core Formation stage too! This way, you can help each other and support each other to go further on the path of cultivation!”
“Sister An, isn’t Qianqian your descendant?” Fang Jinyu frowned slightly.
An Ruyin continued, “So what? She only inherited a drop of my heart’s blood essence from the past. Even if she is closer to me or my daughter, I’ll still say the same thing!”
Fang Jinyu’s frown deepened, but it wasn’t because of An Ruyin’s words. It was because of their relationship. At this moment, Fang Jinyu could feel that there was something in the depths of An Ruyin’s soul that was constantly affecting her!
Fang Jinyu asked after some thought, “Sister An, why do you think so?”
“You’ve formed a first-grade core and have a lightning-attribute Tianling spiritual root. You’ve cultivated the heavenly book and extraordinary scripture, which means that you’re extraordinarily talented. Even though you came to the upper realm by accident, you’ve quickly distinguished yourself. Even if we don’t talk about it, with your looks and cultivation, wouldn’t you have as many ordinary beauties as Xin Qianqian as you want?”
Fang Jinyu heard An Ruyin’s words. Although he didn’t know what had affected An Ruyin, he knew which aspect of her had been affected.
It was because An Ruyin had relied on Fang Jinyu’s divine sense to recover her soul. Even if she didn’t deliberately show it, she would subconsciously side with Fang Jinyu!
If An Ruyin could be given a loyalty score, it would definitely be—[Loyalty: 100!]
At this moment, under the influence of that thing, An Ruyin had practically become Fang Jinyu’s fanatical believer. She beautified Fang Jinyu to the extreme, so much so that she even looked down on Xin Qianqian.
“So what’s going on?”
If Fang Jinyu was the only one affected, then it was easy to guess that it was a curse. However, An Ruyin was also affected, so it couldn’t be an area-of-effect curse, right?
Fang Jinyu was bewildered, but he soon had an answer.
“The corruption of the devil’s intent?”
Fang Jinyu looked at Qing Fu, who had suddenly appeared, and repeated what she had just said in shock.
“That’s right! Mother, I don’t know where those things came from. I could only see that the devil’s intent had tainted the entire Cave Lake Realm. No immortal cultivators, spirit beasts, or even mortals were spared.” Qing Fu’s small face was also slightly shocked, but it was only a slight shock.
As for the rest, such as fear, she didn’t have the slightest bit of it.
Fang Jinyu couldn’t help but ponder.
Fang Jinyu thought of the devil’s realm in the Nine Desolations. Even though the ash immortals had taken the devil’s realm, he was at least somewhat knowledgeable about the devil’s energies.
They were all about pollution.
However, it wasn’t as exaggerated as the “devil’s intent.” It contaminated an entire realm!
Moreover, it wasn’t mentioned in the previous extraordinary books.
Although Fang Jinyu knew that the contents of the extraordinary book couldn’t be completely trusted, there was still a general reference value, right?
For example, the original “Su Yier’s Biography.” As long as it didn’t involve the Nascent Soul stage cultivators, most of the content was accurate.
Fang Jinyu asked, “Then how can we avoid the contamination of the devil’s intent?” Looking at the little girl’s appearance, it was obvious that the contamination of the devil’s intent didn’t affect her.
Although Fang Jinyu had also avoided the contamination of the devil’s intent, he couldn’t possibly carry his magic treasure with him whenever he went out, right?
However, the lightning-attribute mountain’s performance today made Fang Jinyu satisfied. He felt a sense of joy and satisfaction from working hard in the spring and summer and having a good harvest in the autumn.
“Mother, you just have to practice the ‘I eat a lot, but I’m super strong’ that I taught you before to perfection!” Qing Fu waved her little hand, looking as if it were very simple.
Fang Jinyu’s mouth twitched when he heard it.
Fang Jinyu thought, “If I can cultivate that secret technique to perfection, I’ll have crazily worked hard on it! I guess that unless I comprehend the true essence of the Incarnation stage or rank 9 in the Nascent Soul stage, I won’t be able to master the secret technique.”
“Is there any other way?”
“You can do it after strengthening ‘I’m good at hiding’ 100 times!” Qing Fu spread her small hands and said seriously, “You can also dodge the devil’s intent!”
Fang Jinyu looked at Qing Fu with a resentful gaze.
Fang Jinyu couldn’t help but think, “Did she now know how difficult it is to cultivate the secret technique ‘Qing Fu is so powerful’?”
