Mortal Alchemy

Within a month of Chen Ping and the others moving into Demon Subduing Market, news arrived from Eastern Wasteland Immortal City.

The Nascent Soul Sword Cultivator of the Demon Subduing Sect heavily injured the Fourth-Order demon, then identified and executed over a hundred human traitors within the Immortal City.

The previously anxious situation was stabilized by the arrival of a Nascent Soul Sword Cultivator, and a Golden Core cultivator was dispatched to each area.

Everyone held a grudge in their hearts, wanting to counterattack the Eastern Wasteland, kill the demons and demonic cultivators, and avenge their relatives.

This time, the Fourth-Order demon's disturbance in Eastern Wasteland Immortal City caused heavy losses to many forces.

"Alas… Old Yu…" Chen Ping received a message from a jade slip, stating that Yu Wenxiu had died in the demon turmoil.

It was said that he was killed with a single finger strike by the Fourth-Order demon.

Dozens of Golden Core True Persons in Eastern Wasteland Immortal City did not escape, all were killed by the Fourth-Order demon.

However, Ren Rong, who had conflicts with Chen Ping, survived.

He left Eastern Wasteland Immortal City to heal his injuries, thus avoiding this disaster.

A sharp glint flashed in Chen Ping's eyes: "…Did Ren Rong know something in advance?"

Of the dozens of Golden Core True Persons in the city, only Ren Rong was lucky enough to survive, which was too coincidental.

Various Nascent Soul Sovereigns were furious, and all four sects sent Nascent Soul Sovereigns into the Eastern Wasteland to kill demons.

The demon tide war became completely fierce due to the intervention of demonic cultivators.

At this time, Mu Lu妃 found Chen Ping: "Junior Brother, I have some news, and after thinking about it, I think it's better to tell you…"

"Xing Ling's parents and siblings are also on the list of casualties…"

Chen Ping's eyes trembled slightly: "I'll go see her…"

This time, the Mu family suffered heavy losses, with more than a dozen Foundation Establishment cultivators and hundreds of Qi Refining direct descendants dying.

The Mu family also suffered an unwarranted disaster.

When Chen Ping saw Mu Xingling, she was sitting in the courtyard in a daze.

Chen Ping gently embraced her and softly comforted her: "Xing Ling, my condolences."

Mu Xingling's eyes were red, but she did not cry, and gently hugged Chen Ping:

"The struggle for the Golden Core Immortal path has always been like this, and this concubine has long been prepared."

"In order to produce a Golden Core True Person, the family will spare no expense."

"This concubine also feels a little scared. If I hadn't hidden my identity and followed Ping Lang, I'm afraid I wouldn't have escaped the disaster in Eastern Wasteland Immortal City this time."

"This concubine just feels that their deaths were too unworthy…"

Foundation Establishment cultivators and Golden Core True Persons died like ants in front of the Fourth-Order demon, killed lightly, that feeling was too desperate and suffocating.

Even if the deceased were one's own close relatives, so what?

To seek trouble with a Fourth-Order demon with Foundation Establishment cultivation?

If one really wants to mourn relatives, one can only intensify cultivation, and step into Golden Core and Nascent Soul in the future, so that one can personally avenge relatives.

Chen Ping also sighed: "The world is unpredictable, I am very gratified that Ling'er can think this way."

Whether it is the Mu family or the Eastern Xuan Sect, the rules are made by people, and status and position are ultimately illusory.

Only one's own cultivation is real.

Mu Xingling smiled through her tears and said softly: "The Mu family is still there, and this concubine still has many relatives, not to mention, this concubine also has Ping Lang."

"Everything about this concubine is tied to Ping Lang."

Chen Ping nodded.

Just then.

"Zheng Zheng Zheng!!!"

A huge sword shadow appeared out of thin air in the market, that was the Sword Dao Dharma Image, resounding throughout the entire market.

Chen Ping and Mu Xingling's expressions changed slightly: "True Person Changkong has summoned us, it seems we have to go out to do missions and kill demons."

True Person Changkong summoned everyone with the Sword Dao Dharma Image, this method is relatively easy to use, and no one dares to impersonate it at this delicate moment.

Chen Ping led the four women to the Market Master's dojo.

People arrived here one after another.

Only to see that High Market Master's face was so gloomy that water could drip from it.

Several cultivators from the Demon Subduing Sect were also extremely depressed.

After everyone arrived.

True Person Changkong quickly said: "Yesterday, Gao Yang's child, who should have been practicing at home, suddenly disappeared."

"According to investigation, demonic cultivators should have infiltrated the market, specifically to retaliate against the disciples of the Demon Subduing Sect."

"But fortunately, this idiot Gao Yang has a mother-son sword, which can sense the approximate location of the child."

"You all follow this seat to kill demonic cultivators, kill demons!"

At this delicate and critical moment, Gao Yang, as the Market Master, actually allowed demonic cultivators to infiltrate and kidnap his child, it was not an exaggeration for True Person Changkong to call him an idiot.

The expressions on everyone's faces were different, wasn't this kind of conspiracy to lure the tiger away from the mountain, or even ambush and kill, too superficial?

Once they chased after him, there would definitely be an ambush.

And they were helping someone save their child, what was that all about?

High Market Master's face was gloomy, he took a step forward and cupped his hands towards Chen Ping and the others: "Fellow Daoists, my path has stopped, and I no longer have the ability to reproduce, this child is my last bloodline!"

"This time, I will not let you fellow Daoists work in vain. If you can rescue the child, everyone can get twenty drops of demon beast essence blood."

Twenty drops of essence blood, that is worth twenty demon beasts.

This was not a low price.

"What?" Chen Ping suddenly understood.

High Market Master, this kind of Half-Step Golden Core, even in the eyes of ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivators, was a big figure, but he had lost his reproductive ability, this Demon Subduing Sect was too cruel.

As a Half-Step Golden Core, if he couldn't even protect his last bloodline, it would be extremely miserable.

So this child must be saved!

True Person Changkong raised his long sword slightly, his killing intent was awe-inspiring:

"Let's go!"

A group of twenty-odd people rode on a White Jade Treasure Ship, this kind of flying magic weapon could fly five thousand miles a day.

……

Seven hundred miles away.

An abandoned Second-Order array.

A large number of demon beasts and demonic cultivators in black robes gathered here.

"Demon Fang, aren't the fools under your command careful enough, they were tracked by human cultivators." A red tiger with a body length of several tens of feet opened its bloody mouth and actually spoke human language.

The demonic cultivator called Demon Fang frowned and said: "Lord Red Tiger, the people under my command are very careful. This batch of tribute was only discovered to be looted a day ago. There should be tracking methods on a certain tribute, possibly the direct bloodline of a certain family was looted."

"We have an internal response in the market, it will definitely not be exposed."

The red tiger sneered: "My specter saw dozens of human cultivators chasing over, it won't be long before they arrive here."

Demon Fang said coldly: "Then I will take the manpower out to clean them up."

The red tiger slowly shook his head: "No need, there is a Third-Order cultivator among those who came, you are not their opponents."

"Right now, the attention of human cultivators is on Eastern Wasteland Immortal City, it is best for you demonic cultivators not to expose yourselves, lest you cause more trouble and ruin the big plan."

"Hmm? Such a fast speed, even if you evacuate now, it will be too late." The red tiger grinned:

"Interesting, then it's just right to make a deal with them."

"Hide your aura, mix into this batch of tribute, and come out with me to meet these human cultivators."
