Chapter 274: The Unusual Patriarch
In the deserted temple at the back mountain of the Mysterious Sky Sect, Li Mu sat cross-legged in front of the huge ape-man’s corpse, meditating with his eyes closed.
After continuously using the great collapsing technique, his spiritual sense was exhausted.
“That was close. There was actually a sixth level Semi-god Realm warrior among them. If they weren’t careless and entered the Immortal-slaying Sword Formation, it would have been really difficult to take him down this time.”
Li Mu had used all his trump cards to achieve this great victory.
Half a day later, Li Mu cut open the stomach of the great demon and took out the demon core.
He stared at the demon core for a long time.
“I’ll try Wei Yang’s North Divine Technique.”
Then, he activated the technique and devoured the true essence inside the demon core.
No matter how chaotic the outside world was, it had nothing to do with him.
The biggest crisis of the Mysterious Sky Sect had passed. What was left was small issues.
If Wang Qian’an could not even handle such small issues, then the Mysterious Sky Sect was doomed.
He immersed himself in absorbing the demonic core for days.
when his spiritual sense gradually recovered, his fourth level Semi-god Realm was showing signs of loosening.
In the sect, Bai Zhijing identified and locked up the traitors.
After capturing a few law enforcement disciples, she interrogated them. A large number of disciples confessed without being tortured.
Other than the traitors, there were also some law enforcement disciples who used their positions to extort other disciples of the sect.
“So this is the root of the corruption in the sect!”
Bai Zhijing understood a lot from the interrogation.
She had found it strange that Li Jiao had been extorted back then.
After investigating for many days and dealing with that deacon, she had had a feeling that there was something wrong with it.
But she just couldn’t find the root of the problem.
“Villains!”
Bai Zhijing didn’t show any mercy. She locked up all the law enforcement disciples.
After one disciple confessed, the other disciples followed.
As they accused each other, Bai Zhijing caught other traitors hiding in the sect.
After the matter was settled, it was already ten days later.
It was only then that Bai Zhijing remembered the Patriarch in the rear mountain.
She immediately ran to the rear mountain and searched for him.
There was no one other than the huge ape-man corpse.
Bai Zhijing ran to the deserted temple.
The temple was empty.
“Where did he go?”
Did he leave again?
Bai Zhijing searched the entire rear mountain but couldn’t find Li Mu.
“Forget it. He will appear whenever he wants! I guess he doesn’t want the corpse of this old ape.”
Bai Zhijing stared at the huge ape-man corpse for a while, then she carried the corpse and left.
The corpse of a Semi-god Realm demon was a rare treasure for the Mysterious Sky Sect.
Even if it was useless, she could boost disciples’ morale by putting it on the square in the sect.
When the huge ape corpse appeared in the main hall, the remaining elders were all amazed.
“The crisis is basically over. Now, let’s think about how to rebuild the sect!”
Wang Qian’an appeared in the main hall, covered in blood.
The demons above the Emptiness Realm on the Mount Eternal either died under his sword or escaped.
He had left the remaining few to the chief disciples to practice their skills .
“Sect Master, Huang Baichuan took too many people with him this time. Including the losses from the battle with the demon race, one-third of the sect’s disciples are gone.”
The Technique-imparting Elder said with a pained expression.
Many of the abandoned cells in the sect were now full of people.
There were not enough disciples to guard them.
If it were not for the elders suppressing them, the situation might have turned around.
“We lost so many people?”
Wang Qian’an was stunned for a moment before he exhaled lightly.
He was surprised that there were so many spies.
“Actually, other than the outer disciples killed by the demons, most of the lost inner disciples were lost when they caught traitors. This is especially so for the disciples under the Sect Protecting Elder. When the demon race attacked, they began to kill fellow disciples.”
“Elder Qin is so ruthless!”
“These traitors deserve to die. I think we should hold a big gathering to punish these traitors in public.”
An elder suggested.
When these matters were brought up, all the elders in the hall gnashed their teeth.
“Elder Liu, after this passed, please lead a team and go down the mountain to recruit disciples!” Wang Qian’an said.
No one had expected that there would be so many traitors.
After all, the two elders with immense power in the sect were demon spies.
“Yes!” Elder Liu stood up and said.
“There are three main things that the sect needs to do now. The first is to deal with these traitors. The second is to rebuild the sect. The third is to distribute the resources that we have obtained in the Mount Eternal,” Wang Qian’an slowly sat down and said.
This was the first meeting after the crisis.
Meanwhile, the disciples who had gone out to hunt down the demons began to return one after another.
The experiences of these ten days were unforgettable for the disciples.
“I had never experienced anything like this before. I thought I was finished!”
Outside the sect, a few green-robed disciples had huge bags on their backs.
Blood was still seeping out from the bags.
Seeing the huge sect gate, the disciples threw the bags onto the ground.
“It would be great if such a good thing happens again.”
“I don’t want to experience it again.”
“Yun Yiyi, let me see what treasures you got this time.”
A disciple with five golden patterns on his robe shouted.
“Nothing great. Just demonic cores and some medicinal herbs stored by the demon race,” Yun Yiyi said proudly.
“Hehe. Junior sister, you got so many things. Even demon beast’s fur is not worth your attention.”
“My loot is nothing. Those chief direct senior brothers each have an Emptiness Realm demonic core. They don’t want anything else and let other disciples take the Emptiness Realm demon fur.”
Speaking of the harvest this time, a smile broke out on the faces of the disciples.
They had gotten the things that they had long wanted but could not get.
To get a inner core of a Human-level demonic beast, they must work together to kill a Human-level demonic beast.
They might encounter all kinds of dangers during the process.
Many disciples were left with disability without getting a single demonic core.
Once a team of disciples who did not return from the hunt trip after a demon core.
But now, demon cores were everywhere around Mount Eternal, and the disciples got them for free.
“With these things, I can break through to the half-step of Emptiness Realm in a short period of time, and after some accumulation, I can reach the Emptiness Realm.”
“We’re lucky. Let’s make good use of it.”
“You guys chat! I’ll put the things down first and then go to Mount Eternal again.”
The disciple with five golden patterns picked up the big bag and ran towards the sect.
The other disciples saw this and reacted one after another.
That’s right!
In Mount Eternal, many good things were given up because they couldn’t get their hands on them.
One by one, they picked up the bags and ran toward the sect.
“Where’s the sect’s grand array? Without the grand array, we might lose our stuff.”
The first disciple was stunned by this big discovery.
“The sect’s grand array is broken. It collapsed when the Patriarch killed the Semi-god Realm demons.”
“What?!”
They were stunned!
Was there such a patriarch?
“The grand array is gone. What about the safety of our sect?”
