46: The plan is accomplished, and I feel at ease!
"Junior Sister Qu, this is quite a coincidence. Senior Brother Wang and I have known each other for many years, and he is very generous with pretty young female Cultivators like you."
Yu Jiao smiled, acting as an accomplice.
"Junior Sister, thank you for Senior Brother's kindness!"
Seeing this, Jiang Yuheng felt much more at ease. There were indeed many Demonic Cultivators in the Yellow Springs Demon Sect who were lustful and made no attempt to hide their desires.
Many Outer Sect Disciples over sixty years old not only had no hope of Foundation Establishment in their lives but were also stuck at the threshold between Mid-Stage Qi Refining and Late Stage.
Within this Demon Sect, most had somewhat eccentric personalities.
Some were obsessed with longevity secret arts, some indulged in sensual pleasures, and some left the Sect to return home.
There were all kinds of people, and many Outer Sect Demonic Disciple like Wang Jiu existed throughout Corpse Refining Peak.
However, Jiang Yuheng also knew that such people were relatively easy to deal with.
Jiang Yuheng's gaze fell on the wooden box. The surface of the wooden box seemed to have a Restriction applied to it, making it impossible to probe its contents with Divine Thought.
The wooden box was not heavy in his hand and felt slightly cool.
As he opened the wooden box by only one-third, five tiny black streaks suddenly shot out from inside the box, rapidly drilling into the flesh of Jiang Yuheng's right hand.
However, a faint green Spiritual Qi ripple appeared on the panel of Jiang Yuheng's right hand, blocking the attack of the Demonic Fiend Vine branches!
"This..."
"Senior Brother Wang, you..."
Jiang Yuheng's expression was horrified, and he subconsciously retreated several steps.
A great sense of crisis enveloped him.
"No, why would they attack me?"
"My identity is a Bloodline of the Qu Family. Although I am a collateral branch, my death is not something they can bear."
At this moment, Jiang Yuheng could clearly sense that the protective power on the Mystic Wood Spirit Embryo was rapidly draining away.
At this rate, the protective power in the Embryo would collapse in less than ten breaths.
The power of this Embryo could withstand a single attack from a Level 10 Qi Refining Cultivator, but now... the moment Jiang Yuheng looked up, he saw at least thirty Spirit Talismans being thrown out by Senior Brother Wang's hands in one go, filling the sky and completely enveloping him.
Layers of blue barrier light screens surrounded him in the center.
So many Spirit Talismans, and even such rare Barrier Talismans were used.
This was premeditated!
It was clearly aimed at her.
Jiang Yuheng was utterly perplexed. Why would Yu Jiao and the so-called Senior Brother Wang make such a big fuss to target him, a collateral Bloodline of the Qu Family?
This logic made no sense!
Once she died or something happened to her, didn't they think they would be troubled by the Qu Family!?
Various colored lights erupted from the Spirit Talismans, engulfing him!
A strong sense of drowsiness swept over him.
Jiang Yuheng took out a High Grade Tier 1 Red Python Talisman from his Storage Pouch, but before he could activate it, the protective power of the Embryo on his body completely collapsed.
The five black streaks, like small loaches, immediately drilled into Jiang Yuheng's arm.
Overwhelmed by numerous Spirit Talismans, Jiang Yuheng could no longer resist the onset of drowsiness and the restraining force coming from his right hand. The Spiritual Qi and Divine Soul power within his body were being rapidly Sealed.
"Bang!" In a flash, Jiang Yuheng fell heavily to the ground.
Inside the room.
At this moment, Yu Jiao looked at her master with considerable surprise. She thought her master might be a Talisman Master. Throwing out so many Spirit Talismans at once would cost at least nearly a hundred Spirit Stones.
Especially since there were several Spirit Talismans among them that she couldn't even identify.
She herself was a Medium Grade Talisman Master, and when she saw the Barrier Talisman that trapped Jiang Yuheng, her pupils constricted, filled with shock.
This Barrier Talisman was extremely rare, from ancient times, and the method of drawing it could not be found in the current three Sect territories.
Her master was not simple; he must have strong backing!
"Purple Cloud Sect?"
"Or some Sect outside the three Sects?"
At this moment, Yu Jiao felt as if she had grasped some clue.
"It's done."
"It was really difficult. This is the first time the Demonic Fiend Vine's tentacles have been blocked."
"The protective Embryo of this Mystic Wood Spirit Embryo is truly extraordinary."
Shi Chuan sensed the homologous aura of the Fiend Vine within Jiang Yuheng's body, and his heart settled.
With the control of the Demonic Fiend Vine's tentacles, it was more reliable than any other method of control.
Shi Chuan removed the Barrier Talisman. In that instant, he had emptied all the family assets in his Storage Pouch.
After all, this person in front of him was the second Clone of Jiang Yuheng, the Foundation Establishment Demonic Cultivator, and he could not be careless.
"A High Grade Tier 1 Red Python Talisman. If it only reaches this level, then it's impossible to turn the tables."
Shi Chuan retrieved the Spirit Talisman next to Jiang Yuheng.
He inspected it once, making sure there were no small Restrictions or anything similar, before putting it into his Storage Pouch.
Soon after.
Shi Chuan sat calmly at the table, while Jiang Yuheng, dressed in black with slightly disheveled black hair, stood respectfully to one side.
Currently, Shi Chuan held Jiang Yuheng's Storage Pouch. The Divine Soul mark on the Storage Pouch had already been erased by Jiang Yuheng, allowing for easy Divine Thought inspection.
As for Yu Jiao, she was instructed to act as Protector outside the room.
The matter of the Mystic Wood Spirit Embryo was extremely important, so Yu Jiao naturally wouldn't be allowed to know about it.
Inside the Storage Pouch were twenty High Grade Tier 1 Spirit Talismans and one thousand Low-Grade Spirit Stones.
However, the stronghold set up by a Foundation Establishment Demonic Cultivator would certainly not be limited to this.
After Shi Chuan's inquiry, this Jiang Yuheng also had a stronghold set up outside the Sect, which even contained several High Grade Tier 1 Magical Artifacts and Tier 2 Spirit Talismans.
When Jiang Yuheng set up the stronghold, he never expected such a massive change in the Yellow Springs Demon Sect.
The Jiao Demon Sect and Purple Cloud Second Sect, like sharks smelling blood, quickly surrounded the outside of the Sect.
The other party was even specifically targeting the Foundation Establishment Demonic Cultivators within the Sect.
Some Inner and Outer Sect Disciples of the Yellow Springs Demon Sect still had a chance to move in and out of the two Sects' encirclement.
But if a Foundation Establishment Demonic Cultivator left the Sect, they would either be severely injured or die.
Only Cultivators above the Golden Core Stage could enter and exit.
Jiang Yuheng could not use the Mystic Wood Spirit Embryo to Rebirth from the stronghold outside the Sect, so he could only hastily prepare some protective Dao methods in the Qiao Family Artifact Refining Shop.
But now, Jiang Yuheng never expected that his path of revenge had just begun, and he had already become someone else's servant.
Moreover, the person who attacked him seemed to have planned it long ago.
Then his accidental encounter with Yu Jiao in the market must not have been a coincidence.
"Could it be that the Jiao Demon Sect left some mark when they came into contact with me?"
Jiang Yuheng's mind raced with countless thoughts, but he simply couldn't find where his flaw was.
"I've left you a hundred Spirit Stones in the Storage Pouch. Cultivate well."
Shi Chuan threw the Storage Pouch back to Jiang Yuheng.
"Take off the Embryo of the Mystic Wood Spirit Embryo from your body!"
"It is most proper for me to keep this item."
Shi Chuan's eyes gleamed.
This protective Embryo could be continuously nurtured with magical power, and its future potential could advance to a top-tier Magic Treasure. Such a Magic Treasure would only be safe in his hands.
