The Unlucky Soul Devouring Old Demon (5.4K) Chapter 934: 377: News about Xu Wei and Mini Array Spirit!
The Unlucky Soul Devouring Old Demon (5.4K) Having dealt with the Skeleton Devil Tree, the identity of the person in the ice coffin that spurted from its gaping mouth was also revealed as the ice coffin opened.
This individual was none other than a Nascent Soul Complete Demon Monarch from over five hundred years ago, known as the Myriad Tribulation Demon Monarch.
The Skeleton Devil Tree, along with the Ice Cloud Blood Mosquito, Lingbo Mane, and others, were all demon beasts and spiritual pets under its control.
According to the messages recorded in the jade token left behind, the Myriad Tribulation Demon Monarch had failed in his breakthrough to achieve Divine Transformation and had perished when his lifespan ended.
After his death, his numerous spiritual pets had always stayed in the valley, never leaving, and had guarded it for over five hundred years.
...
“So it turns out that the field in this valley was merely set up by this demon monarch over five hundred years ago, just to guard his breakthrough…
but I never expected it to trap us inside for so many years…”
After understanding the whole story, Qiu Feng couldn’t help but sigh.
A guardian field casually arranged by a Nascent Soul Complete cultivator, which wasn’t even a large killing array, had almost led to the annihilation of all the cultivators who accidentally entered, leaving even those Late-stage Golden Core cultivators barely clinging to life.
This really was a case of the innocent suffering due to proximity.
Chen Dengming continued reading until the end and noticed that the Myriad Tribulation Demon Monarch had indeed considered arranging his affairs after death.
But he probably felt quite unreconciled, not willing after his death that his painstakingly nurtured spiritual pets and wealth should pass to someone else, thus these spiritual pets would automatically attack anyone entering the valley.
However, according to the Myriad Tribulation Demon Monarch’s last words in the jade token, it was clear he had anticipated that some formidable individuals might forcefully enter, so he left a message pleading that the spiritual pets’ lives be spared and also left the method to subdue them, along with half of his Demon Cultivation techniques.
As for the Demon Cultivation techniques, Chen Dengming wasn’t very interested.
The Human Immortal Dao System and the Heavenly Immortal Dao Unification that he had inherited were the strongest Daoism methods.
He needed no other techniques, especially not some incomplete Demon Cultivation technique.
However, he was quite interested in subduing the Ice Cloud Blood Mosquito and the Lingbo Mane.
Yet, seeing the writing recorded at the end of the jade token by the Myriad Tribulation Demon Monarch, Chen Dengming couldn’t help but feel a bit startled.

“…I also have two major disciples who might still be alive, my eldest disciple Thousand Poison Wanderer Ling Jue, and my second disciple Hundred Loss Demon Path Kang Zhiyin.
If a Daoist friend wishes to pass on my Dao techniques to these two major disciples, you can obtain the other half of the Dao techniques from them…
—Left by Myriad Tribulation Demon Monarch.”
“Hundred Loss Demon Path?”
Chen Dengming was stunned, “The Hundred Loss Demon Path that created ‘Life-Shortening Cultivation Enhancement Skill’?”
It most likely was.
In the Cultivation World, those who boast a title or honor, unless there is a vast distance like that between the Four Oceans and the Four Regions, usually each title given to a cultivator is unique, very difficult to duplicate.
He never imagined that he would discover the master of the Hundred Loss Demon Path in this valley.
Speaking of this Hundred Loss Demon Path, he somewhat had a connection with him.
If it weren’t for the “Life-Shortening Cultivation Enhancement Skill” created by the other party, he would have found it much harder to quickly boost his Spiritual Root aptitude in the early stages and grow.
“It’s a pity, your disciple from the Hundred Loss Demon Path also met his demise a hundred years ago.”
Chen Dengming shook his head in his heart, directly crushing the jade token in his hand.
As for the other, named Thousand Poison Wanderer, just the name suggested he wasn’t someone pleasant to deal with, and Chen Dengming couldn’t be bothered to search for him.
This Myriad Tribulation Demon Monarch truly was interesting; the thinking of those from the Demon Path was beyond common comprehension.
He intentionally left behind half of his Demon Path technique.
Expecting that if anyone who discovered it was interested, they would go looking for his two major disciples to ask for the other half of the technique—quite thought-provoking.
He must have been hoping, through the hands of his two major disciples, either to have them destroyed or he conveniently destroyed both his disciples.
If the Hundred Loss Demon Path were aware below the springs, he’d probably also say a word of thanks to his master.
Apart from the Demon Sect techniques, within the Myriad Tribulation Demon Monarch’s ice coffin, there was only one usable third-tier Magic Treasure.
The other magic treasures, Elixir Pills, and even the Storage Bag had all been spoiled due to the passage of time.
Chen Dengming quickly read through the method for subduing the Ice Cloud Blood Mosquito and the Lingbo Mane.
He discovered that subduing these two fierce creatures initially unavoidably required some forceful tactics.
This would also be very simple to handle, as he had a fourth-tier Magic Treasure, Beast Restrain Circle, which he had never used before.
This was the perfect opportunity to put it to use.
After capturing them and bringing them back, he could gradually train them using the subduing method.
He once had experience in raising gu, so this was familiar territory for him.
…
After subduing the Ice Cloud Blood Mosquito and the Lingbo Mane, Chen Dengming and his two companions did not immediately set off to leave.
Instead, they gathered the bones of their fellow sect members who had died in the valley long ago, planning to bring them back to their sect for burial.
This was also like the fallen leaves returning to the root, a fortunate occurrence amidst the misfortunes of the trapped—an opportunity for their spirits to return to their homeland, rather than being abandoned in the wilderness.
…
At dawn.
A Spirit Boat flew out of the valley, heading straight for the Longevity Sect.
The long wind whistled through the air; next to Chen Dengming floated a towering halo shimmering with precious light.
Inside the halo, a cloudlike cluster of Ice Cloud Blood Mosquitoes dashed around in desperation but couldn’t escape the halo’s confinement.
In his hand, he restrained a large water globe.
The globe was filled densely with wiggling Lingbo Manes.
Strong suction forces emitted from the serrated mouths of these Lingbo Manes, rapidly siphoning away the Spiritual Energy within the water globe.
However, when it came to absorbing Spiritual Energy, these Lingbo Manes met their match in Chen Dengming, who was akin to a venerable ancestor to them.
Every time the Water Spirit Qi in the water globe was siphoned away, Chen Dengming’s palm would burst forth with a whirlpool of silver Dao Force, utilizing the Devouring Spirit Skill.
He quickly sucked out the escaping Water Spirit Qi along with the power from inside the bodies of the Lingbo Manes.
Thus, not only could the Lingbo Manes not absorb any of Chen Dengming’s Spiritual Energy, they were continuously drained of their internal power by Chen Dengming.
Their sizes shrank more and more, and their resistance weakened increasingly.
