I Collect Skill Fragments in the Demon World-Chapter 751 - 389: The Last Night

Bai Lu is the foremost of the Ancestral Master of Longevity's four great disciples, an existence that has stepped into the Twelfth Tier, his strength ranking among the top in the world.

The Ancestral Master of Longevity sent Bai Lu to collude with the Demon Race, while Zhang Chen was in his small house, secretly scheming: "Now everything has already fallen into place, the next step is to add fuel to the fire and push the situation to a completely uncontrollable state."

"So what should be done next?" Various thoughts flashed in Zhang Chen's mind: "If I make Monk Hai Chan and the Ancestral Master of Longevity have a big quarrel, and then manipulate Monk Hai Chan to enter the Nine Bends Yellow River Array, having him killed there, then at that time the Ancestral Master of Longevity would have a difficult time justifying himself."

"I say, since you can manipulate Monk Hai Chan, logically speaking, the other ancestors should also be within your control." Zhang Chen asked the Great Freedom Celestial Demon, feeling that the Great Freedom Celestial Demon was holding back his capabilities.

The Great Freedom Celestial Demon sighed lightly: "Do you misunderstand my methods? I usually hide in the souls of cultivators through negative emotions, and when they encounter major issues, I let greed cloud their judgment, leading to wrong choices. This way, I advance step by step, attacking their hearts, and gradually devour their spirits. Although I planted Demon Seeds in those old fellows' hearts, all I can do is influence their judgment and perceptions; making them entirely become puppets isn't that simple."

"For example, manipulating Monk Hai Chan to enter your Nine Bends Yellow River Array—once inside, faced with a life and death crisis, Monk Hai Chan will surely wake up from my manipulation and choose to escape. At that time, it's up to you to operate the Nine Bends Yellow River Array to suppress and kill him." The Great Freedom Celestial Demon said.

Whether it is the negative state of Monk Hai Chan or the positive state, he will consider his life and death as the most important matter.

Zhang Chen glanced at the Great Freedom Celestial Demon, not believing a single word of this old fellow. He was too deeply hidden, and his explanation didn't hold water at all.

However, Zhang Chen also knew clearly in his heart that the Great Freedom Celestial Demon's forcible control over others, seizing others' will, must carry a price, but he didn't know what that price was.

Over there, Monk Hai Chan and the other ancestral giants gathered in one place, and after a half-day of discussion, they finally decided to recombine that immortal's true spirit. They gathered in one place, with rays of light flowing from their hands, converging in the void into a ball of white light.

"One segment of the true spirit is missing, that segment is in the hands of Changsheng, but now we have gathered ninety-nine percent, it won't affect the resurrection of the Immortal's true spirit." The Xuanji Ancestor looked at the light suspended in mid-air and said: "For the Immortal true spirit to fully integrate and revive, it still needs seven days of time. Why not let's place this Immortal true spirit in Daoist Hai Chan's golden alms bowl to nurture it? Your golden alms bowl has the Power of Faith, which is very beneficial to the recovery of the Immortal's true spirit."

Monk Hai Chan did not decline, opening the golden alms bowl directly and receiving the true spirit suspended in the void into it.

He clearly understood in his heart that although Xuanji Ancestor spoke nicely, saying to nurture the Immortal's true spirit with the Power of Faith, in reality, no one dared to keep the Immortal true spirit nearby, lest it seizes their bodies.

And his golden alms bowl was forged by the Power of Faith, with the addition of Dragon Qi from the Human Dao Dynasty. It possessed all sorts of unbelievable powers, having a restraining effect on the Immortal's true spirit.

The golden alms bowl received back the Immortal true spirit, and then Monk Hai Chan said: "Next, we must assist the Immortal in finding a physical body to complete rebirth. This reborn body is crucial. If chosen too poorly, the recovery will be too slow, exerting little strength, unable to defeat the Peacock True Spirit. If chosen too strong, once the Peacock True Spirit is suppressed, we will be threatened by the Immortal…"

The group fell into deep thought again, considering the vessel for the Immortal's body, and after a long time, Moonlight Fairy said: "There are numerous disciples in this Five Villages Temple, why waste our efforts? Can we not just secretly target one of the disciples from the mountains?"

"Moreover, if the Immortal seizes a disciple of the Five Villages Temple and attacks others using the identity of a disciple from the Five Villages Temple, wouldn't that catch the Longevity Thief Dao off guard, allowing us to add another layer to our scheme." Moonlight Fairy said.

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at each other and agreed with Moonlight Fairy's proposal. Beside them, the East Profound Ancestor said: "This matter must be done in secret!"

After another round of discussion, they finalized a strategy and then returned to their respective cottages to prepare for action.

Qingcheng Mountain is the domain of the Five Villages Temple. Although the Ancestral Master of Longevity is confined to the blessed land of Qingcheng Mountain, on these sacred grounds, it is akin to the domain of the Ancestral Master of Longevity, whose combat power will be infinitely amplified and enhanced. Even though the group is large in number, they still do not dare to be careless when facing the Ancestral Master of Longevity.

The battle relies on: timing, location, and harmony—the location is in the hands of the Ancestral Master of Longevity, and even the timing is in the Ancestral Master of Longevity's hands, leaving only harmony for the group to strive for.

Everyone dispersed, while Zhang Chen began to prepare a teapot for boiling water again, and the Great Freedom Celestial Demon said, "How do you plan to make that old monk enter the Nine Bends Yellow River Array? Will he walk in directly, or do you have other arrangements?"

Zhang Chen sneered sinisterly: "Have you ever heard the phrase, having a mouth but unable to explain?"

The Great Freedom Celestial Demon shook slightly upon hearing Zhang Chen's strange tone, thinking to himself: 'Here it comes again! Here it comes again! It's that familiar feeling! This cunning bastard is scheming against people again. I ought to learn from him a bit; if only I were half as despicable and shameless as he is, I wouldn't have ended up being shouted down by everyone.'
