Wait a minute, where is my master?

The next morning dawned beautifully.

Today was supposed to be just an ordinary day.

However, a last-minute edition from Tingfeng Building exploded across Qingmu City, shaking the entire Nine Provinces Immortal World.

This edition contained two articles, the first titled "Shocking! One of the main figures involved in the Qingmu City incident said this!"

It consisted of five pages, each filled with a large block of blank space.

At the end of the article, it simply stated "No comment" in bold letters!

Of course, if one only read this first article, it would be no injustice if the many branches of Tingfeng Building were smashed by cultivators.

Thus, the second article from Tingfeng Building was an explosive "Adventure Guide."

"Shocking! Whether you're Crossing Tribulation or in Qi Cultivation, everyone can receive a top-level Wash Essence and Marrow opportunity for free!"

"According to our investigations, the group of cultivators suddenly purified by top methods across the Nine Provinces Realm had all experienced the mass purification event in Gusu City of Great Xia.

Moreover, our intermediate wind catcher, Little Han, has sent back reliable news, proving that the mysterious powerhouse who saved Gusu City that day possesses a miraculous method of Wash Essence and Marrow for cultivators, which can also cleanse the impurities from their Spirit Roots.

And this powerful figure declared that if the peers from the Nine Provinces Realm wish to enjoy this method of Wash Essence and Marrow, they can bring the head of a Demon Sect follower to register in Shangjing City of Great Xia. Once the identity of the head is confirmed,

they will enjoy a free session of Wash Essence and Marrow!!!"

Murong Xiaohan mentioned yesterday in an interview with Jin Xu that Tingfeng Building was investigating the incidence where cultivators mysteriously found themselves having undergone Wash Essence and Marrow. It is said that these cultivators had all experienced that event in Gusu City, and that their meridians and Dantian had widened after the incident.

At the same time, Murong Xiaohan explained to a young Taoist how precious and rare this top-level method of Wash Essence and Marrow was.

But as of now, it still could not be verified whether it was the white light that purified Gusu City that did the Wash Essence and Marrow for these cultivators.

Upon hearing this, Jin Xu actively shared the effects of the Body Purification Skill with Murong Xiaohan.

At the same time, the idea emerged to use this technique as a bargaining chip to initiate a mass Destroying Demon Sect movement across the Nine Provinces Realm.

After all, no matter how powerful the Taoist was, he was only one man, and the Demon Sect had been developing in the Nine Provinces Realm for so many years with countless hidden methods; tackling the Demon Sect alone was simply too troublesome and exhausting for Jin Xu alone.

It would be better to plunge the Demon Sect directly into the vast sea of the people.

Upon this news release,

various powers were utterly shocked.

There were those who doubted the authenticity of the information and those who hastily sought to verify it.

And the immortal forces that had witnessed the efficacy of the Body Purification Skill's Wash Essence and Marrow quickly sprang into action,

beginning to search everywhere for the followers of the Demon Sect.

The cultivators who had been hit by Jin Xu's Body Purification Skill in Gusu City instantly became hot commodities, eagerly sought after by various Great Immortal Sect forces.

In just half a day, various powers swiftly confirmed the authenticity of the Wash Essence and Marrow method, and Empress Xia Yunzhao of the Great Xia dynasty personally came forward to certify the authenticity of the event.

Thus, the various Great Immortal Sect forces sprang into action.

A grand Destroying Demon Sect movement erupted throughout the entire Nine Provinces Realm!

...

In Miao State, five hundred miles underground.

Four shadows appeared here.

Granny Meng was leisurely stirring with a long-handled ladle in the large pot in front of her.

"Can someone tell me what the heck is going on with today's temporary edition from Tingfeng Building? Little Yan, since you were in charge of the hall in Gusu City before, do you have any idea who this mysterious powerhouse really is?"

The voice of the Great Elder was neither male nor female, sometimes distant and sometimes near, yet anger could be discerned in it this time.

The temporary publication from Tingfeng Building spread throughout the Nine Provinces, bringing disastrous effects to the Demon Sect.

The middle and upper ranks of the sect were still alright, except for one unfortunate Hall Master from the Twelve Halls. While seeking pleasure in a certain city, he was directly surrounded and killed by Righteous Path cultivators.

The rest of the Hall Masters were temporarily in no mortal danger.

Although the middle and upper ranks of the Demon Sect were temporarily safe, the lower ranks of the sect suffered catastrophic losses! Some Hall Masters, who usually had fewer subordinates and did not focus on expanding their followers, had their envoys completely wiped out by Righteous Path cultivators.

In less than a day, the Demon Sect's arrangements in certain states embarrassingly found themselves with no one available to deploy.

Thus, these Elders and protectors, who were rarely seen and always busy with various arrangements, gathered here for an emergency meeting.

"As far as I'm aware, that mysterious powerful individual is the pesky Taoist who ruined our sect's plans in the Great Xia dynasty, the very Imperial Uncle who suddenly popped up in Great Xia,"

After answering the question, the illusion of the Third Elder was met with sudden silence from the Great Elder of the Demon Sect.

The five hundred li underground cave suddenly fell into an eerie silence.

After a long while, the eerie voice of the Great Elder rang out again.

"Second Elder, how badly is the plan in Qing State affected by this incident?"

"The matters in Qing State are mainly within the Secret Realm, so the impact is not significant. However, when one of my Hall Masters was tasked with assimilating the Demon Clan, some of them seemed eager to take the chance for a free Wash Essence and Marrow. I ordered him to kill them all,"

The voice of the Second Elder was indifferent, as if he did not care much about the matter.

"Plant the Blood Spirit Gu in all the assimilated Demon Clan within Qing State.

Beyond Qing State, suspend all other arrangements temporarily; all Hall Masters and their followers must lie low. I will make a trip to the main building of Tingfeng Building.

As for that petty Taoist, it is unwise to confront him now. Once we have welcomed back the Demon Lord, he will naturally pay the price."

After pondering for a moment, the Great Elder swiftly announced his arrangements, then his illusion dissipated from the underground palace.

Seeing this, the illusion of the Second Elder also dispersed. Yan Meishan actually wanted to chat with Granny Meng for a bit, but seeing the illusion beside her and looking at Granny Meng busy with her soup, she wisely dispersed her own illusion.

"Autumn lady, it must have been eight hundred years since we last met, hasn't it?"

A clear male voice rang out from the underground palace, faintly choked with emotion.

Granny Meng's hand, holding the soup spoon, paused slightly. She slowly raised her head, and a tear emerged glistening in her aged eyes.

...

Qingmu City, Kitchen God's Courtyard. Rebuilt version.

Jin Xu put down the Communication Jade Token in his hand within the room.

The nationwide campaign he initiated to Destroy Demon Sect had been gratifyingly successful, according to the message just received from Xia Yunzhao, verified by the Confucian "True Word Skill," and all within a day's work.

Shangjing City had already sent out more than a thousand offers for a free chance to enjoy the Wash Essence and Marrow.

The little Taoist felt that if things continued at this rate, the lower ranks of the Demon Sect might be captured entirely within three days.

Jin Xu's lips slightly curled up, and he retrieved the "Concealing Skill" spell that he had acquired the previous day from his storage treasure.

He had practiced this magic extensively yesterday, but curiously, after completing his training, he found no change in himself.

This magic was meant to conceal one's Spiritual Power aura. To others, he always appeared to be an ordinary person with no fluctuations in Spiritual Power.

Thus, practicing this spell felt as though he hadn't practiced it at all.

However, the little Taoist always felt this spell was not so simple.

He planned to practice it again tonight to see if there could be any marvelous changes.
