"Also, although I am nominally protecting Wan'er, I haven't actually done much for you."

"I just asked my brother and sister-in-law to continue to defend the cold cave. I feel so guilty!"

Cheng Luo gradually recovered from the shock of Chen Yun's advancement, and immediately responded modestly after hearing Chen Yun's words.

"Junior brother has successfully advanced to the middle stage of the Nascent Soul with a life span of less than 300 years. If this fact spreads, please let it spread."

"Perhaps it will be enough to shake the entire Tiannan region."

"It can be predicted that the possibility of reaching the late Nascent Soul stage or even the Spiritual Transformation stage in the future is also very high!"

Lu Luo couldn't help but sigh, his words full of envy.

Considering Chen Yun's amazing progress in cultivation, looking at the long history of the immortal cultivation world in the Tiannan region, there are probably only a few strong people who can compare with him.

Such outstanding performance in practice does not rely solely on one's innate talent for practice.

It is more driven by personal chance and fortune, which obviously cannot be achieved by force or coercion.

Facing Chen Yun's modesty, the old man smiled and said:
"It is exactly as you said. After you disappeared into the space crack that day, the other ancient demon became extremely angry."

"I knew I was facing a life-or-death crisis, but other monks happened to arrive to support me."

“Although the first group of monks who arrived at the battlefield were unable to defeat the other ancient demon that had evolved into a two-headed, four-armed form even with the help of Wei Wuya and others, the situation gradually became precarious soon after.”

"Fortunately, the reinforcements from the Mulan tribe finally arrived in time."

The old man continued to explain:

"With the joint efforts of both parties, they successfully sealed this powerful enemy."

"After an arduous battle, with the help of the power of the Mulan Holy Bird that was recalled by a woman named Le from the Mulan tribe, they finally inflicted heavy damage on the demon."

"Even the mid-level divine master of the Mulan tribe cut off one of the demon's heads. However, in the end, the ancient demon managed to escape by chance."

"In this battle, many cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage paid the price with their lives. Among them, the senior sister of Nangong Wan was hit directly by the devil flame, and even her Nascent Soul was turned into nothing."

"Ancestor Linghu's condition is relatively good, but his body has also been severely damaged, and only his Nascent Soul has survived."

“As for the cultivators of the Ghost Spirit Sect, they suffered the heaviest losses. The elder surnamed Zhong even had his Nascent Soul taken out and devoured by the ancient demon.”

"Except for a few Jindan-stage cultivators, all high-level cultivators from the entire Ghost Spirit Sect who entered the valley were killed in this battle. This is truly shocking."

What happened next was roughly consistent with what Huang Yuanming had previously told Chen Yun.

Originally, everyone thought that this monster would not be able to stay in the human world for a long time, just as described in historical records.

However, what was unexpected was that this monster seemed to have taken some special measures and did not show any intention of returning to the other world.

On the contrary, it slaughtered monks in Tiannan and devoured the Nascent Souls of cultivators everywhere.

Such behavior undoubtedly aroused the anger of many cultivators and led to a large-scale siege.

When Chen Yun heard this, his brows slightly frowned and he asked doubtfully:
"I have heard various rumors outside about the great battle that besieged this monster."

"Some people say all sorts of things, but it is said that two cultivation masters and a Mulan divine master attacked at the same time. Could it be that they failed to kill the monster on the spot?"

"Given your status and position, I believe you should know the true ending, right? "

Chen Yun's words were full of seriousness and earnestness, and he was obviously deeply afraid of the cruelty of the ancient demon.

"The two of us did not participate in the siege. However, according to news from within the alliance, the ancient demon did suffer serious injuries."

"However, it managed to escape the encirclement using a mysterious spell. Although Master Zhiyang and others have been following closely behind, trying to completely destroy this demon."

"However, due to concerns that the Tuwu Clan's cultivators might intervene in the matter, they had no choice but to give up the pursuit."

"However, after so many years, this ancient demon has never appeared in Tiannan again."

"And the situation on the Tuwu tribe side has remained calm. It seems that this ancient demon has either died of serious injuries or has crossed the Mulan Grassland and entered the territory of Dajin."

The old man patiently explained to Chen Yun.

"Enter Dajin?"

When Chen Yun heard the news, his face became a little nervous for a moment, but soon returned to normal.

Senior Brother Cheng and Lu Luo naturally noticed that Chen Yun was hesitant to talk, but they were very smart and did not ask any further questions.

After all, Chen Yun's current magical power and realm attainments have far surpassed the two of them. Facing Chen Yun, they couldn't help but feel awe in their hearts.

After talking to the two of them for a while, Chen Yun finally mentioned that he had found the medicine to save Nangong Wan in the Demon Valley, and was planning to try to remove the curse for her first.

Upon hearing the good news, Senior Brother Cheng and Lu Luo were ecstatic.

If Nangong Wan can recover as before, then the strength of their Luoyun Sect will be greatly enhanced.

Therefore, they immediately put aside other topics and decided to accompany Chen Yun to the forbidden area.

At the entrance to the forbidden area, Senior Brother Cheng and Lu Luo took the initiative to express their willingness to guard there, so that Chen Yun could be at ease to lift the evil curse for Nangong Wan.

Chen Yun did not refuse. Instead, he thanked politely and walked into the forbidden area alone.

Not long after, his figure appeared in front of the stone door of the secret room.

He looked at the restrictions outside the stone gate and found that they had not been touched since he left last time.

From this, it can be seen that Senior Brother Cheng and Lu Luo only used their spiritual sense to investigate Nangong Wan's condition and did not forcibly break through the restriction.

This made Chen Yun more and more satisfied with their behavior.

He pinched his fingers together and uttered several spells in succession. The stone door suddenly glowed with light, and then slowly opened with a dull sound.

Chen Yun's eyes were shining with surprise as he stepped into the secret room quietly and silently.

The stone door closed again.

The scene in the secret room remained the same, but because the roof was inlaid with moonstone, the whole room did not appear too dim.

In addition, due to the existence of the ban, the room is always kept clean and tidy without any dust.

The ice wall emitted a faint spiritual light. Nangong Wan was still sealed inside it, appearing like a little girl, with her eyes closed and her face slightly pale.

A trace of pity flashed in Chen Yun's eyes. He walked slowly to a place about ten feet in front of the ice wall and stopped.

He stared at Nangong Wan's pale face, his eyes full of complicated emotions! Standing in the same place, looking at the frozen Nangong Wan from afar, time seemed to freeze, he took a deep breath, and Morena quickly pulled out a jade box from the storage bag.

She held the box in one hand, and with a slight wave of her other hand, she gently popped open the lid.

As the lid of the box opened, a red ball about the size of a thumb appeared. This was the extremely precious Fire Toad Beast Demon Pill.

Against the backdrop of this jade box, the demon pill glows with a mysterious and magnificent brilliance.

After staring at the demon pill for a while, Chen Yun opened his mouth slightly, and a light blue aura surrounded the demon pill, then carried it towards the ice wall.

At this moment, a series of low spells sounded, and a magic spell hit the ice wall.

The ice wall flashed blue light, and the demon pill merged into the thick ice wall without any hindrance, finally stopping at Nangong Wan's lips.

Chen Yun calmly pointed at Nangong Wan, and Nangong Wan's lips slightly opened.

The demon pill seized this opportunity and flew into her mouth in an instant.

Nangong Wan's originally pale face gradually turned a faint blush, but her eyes were still closed, and there was no sign of waking up.

Chen Yun sighed, realizing that this matter cannot be rushed. Even if the demon pill was really effective, the soul-sealing curse could not be lifted in a short period of time.

Despite this, Chen Yun did not leave immediately. Instead, he stood quietly in front of the ice wall, looking at Nangong Wan silently, and his mind couldn't help but recall the moment when he first met Nangong Wan.

Time passed quietly, and Chen Yun's figure always stood in front of the ice wall, motionless...

After waiting for most of the day, Chen Yun finally walked out of the secret room calmly and restarted the ban. He returned along the same route and met Brother Cheng and Lu Luo on the way. They asked him a few questions with concern.

Chen Yun forced a smile and said that it would take a few more days of observation to determine whether the soul-sealing curse could be truly lifted.

Exhausted by the long journey, he said goodbye to the two and returned to his cave alone.

He knew that the future was still long and any problems could be discussed and resolved slowly in the days ahead.

Then, he turned into a ray of green light and rushed towards Zimu Peak.

During the previous conversation, he learned that although he had been missing for more than 20 years, his cave was still kept intact under the strict supervision of the old man and Lu Luo.

His concubine Mu Peiling still lives in Zifeng and is well taken care of by the old man and Lu Luo.

Now, this woman has reached the stage of false elixir, and in just a few years, she will be able to start trying to form the elixir.

This is undoubtedly good news.

After hearing this, Chen Yun's heart moved and he naturally thought of the Dianfeng Peiyuan Gong.

He possesses many elixirs that can improve the success rate of forming a pill, and Mu Peiling's qualifications are excellent.

As long as he goes all out to help Mu Peiling form the elixir, then she will have at least a 70% chance of successfully forming the elixir.

However, during the process of falling into the devil, he unexpectedly gained new opportunities, so that he had broken through this bottleneck before Mu Peiling formed the elixir.

As a result, he had to adjust his original plan.

However, this does not affect the effectiveness of the dual cultivation method of Dianfeng Peiyuan Gong for breaking through the late Nascent Soul realm.

Of course, the heat required to practice this kind of technique must be deeper. Only when Mu Peiling reaches the late stage of Jindan can the effect of this technique be brought into play.

However, his original idea of ​​letting Mu Peiling practice this technique for decades, then harvesting her Yuan Yin body and letting her go or stay, had to be modified.

After all, according to common sense, he might need two to three hundred years to break through to the top level of the middle Nascent Soul stage.

During this long period of time, in order to ensure that this woman can continue to practice the mysterious Dianfeng Peiyuan Gong, she really needs careful training and guidance.

After all, Dianfeng Peiyuan Gong is not a top-level martial art, and it would be useless without the assistance of precious elixirs.

This woman will probably face great difficulties in reaching the late stage of Jindan in a short period of time.

Chen Yun pondered these questions in his mind, and after a moment he had arrived in front of the Zi Mu Peak.

He stared at the spectacular sea of ​​clouds in front of him, a faint smile forming on the corners of his mouth.

With a slight wave of his sleeves, the thick fog automatically opened up a passage leading to the main peak for him.

He flew towards the main peak calmly.

Everything in the cave was the same as before, without any change, even some of the three-colored gold-eating bugs were left behind to guard the cave when Chen Yun left.

They are still tightly condensed into a three-color round sphere, hanging high in the center of the hall, always remaining still.

The Xuantian Immortal Vine and Jiuqu Lingginseng transplanted and planted in the medicine garden were also unharmed, as if he had just left yesterday.

As for the broken branches of the Xuantian Immortal Vine, although they could not be saved, Chen Yun did not actually hold much hope that he could restore them to life.

However, the Nine-bend Spiritual Ginseng is a rare treasure in the world and a precious spiritual medicine that has long been extinct in the outside world.

What is even more peculiar is that this elixir has given birth to a soul and even taken on an anthropomorphic form, making it even more precious.

If this spiritual ginseng could be easily carried, Chen Yun would definitely try to transplant it and keep it with him.

However, among the ancient prescriptions obtained today, there is no recipe for elixir that requires the use of this spiritual ginseng.

In desperation, Chen Yun had to put it aside temporarily and ignore it.

In addition, all the other spiritual medicines in the medicine garden and the gold-eating insects that the six-winged frost centipede was cultivated for were taken away by Chen Yun, who happened to be brought into the spiritual beast bag, so there was no need to worry.

What is particularly noteworthy is that the twenty-four young eggs of the six-winged frost centipede had already hatched on the way to the far west.

However, he was trapped in the space rift for more than twenty years.

The magical bottle failed to produce green liquid again, which meant that the spirit insects were still in their immature stage and had not undergone any evolution so far.

Chen Yun placed them in a specially designed spirit beast bag so that they could sleep peacefully for a long time. This made Chen Yun feel quite regretful.

Now, Chen Yun first put the gold-eating bugs waiting to evolve back into an insect room.

Then he took out the extremely cold special spirit beast bag and walked to the insect room next door which was originally used to raise six-winged frost centipedes.

He held the spirit beast bag in his hand and gently tilted it towards the insect room door.

As a white light passed by, more than twenty centipede larvae, only a few inches long, instantly appeared in the center of the insect room.

These six-winged frost centipede larvae are snow-white and crystal clear. At this moment, their wings have not yet fully emerged. They look like enlarged versions of white snow silkworms, without any ferocious or terrifying appearance. (End of this chapter)
