Exploring Immortality Cultivation-Chapter 1043 - 126: Assassinate Sect

"Ladies and gentlemen, nice to meet you for the first time. I am the demon giant who destroyed Taiyin, and I'm planning to conveniently destroy the Cangxia World next year. Starting today, I am your Transmitting Technique Elder, so hello to you all."

As it introduced itself, it displayed its strange tentacles. Its upper limbs were tentacles, and its lower limbs were also many tentacles, the entire body a bright yellow. Its head was round with no ears or nose, only two tiny eyes like green beans and a large bloody mouth. During the self-introduction, its tone was amiable, and its enormous mouth strained to form an obvious smile.

However, everyone, including the Reincarnators, was already lost in the chaos of the moment.

——There is too much absurdity... where should we begin to speak?

Daoist Wumu, who claimed to be a steward of the Demon Extermination Department of the Righteous Path Alliance, sighed softly: "You might find it absurd... let's just get straight to the point. I hope you can kill this Outer Heaven Demon."

Then, in the eyes of the Reincarnators, time suddenly paused.

The voice of the Reincarnation Realm Master rang out once more.

"Main Task: Kill the projection of the Yellow Robed King in this world."

"Task Reward: You can exchange resources obtained in this world at a price twelve times to their equivalent in Reincarnation Points."

"Failure Penalty: Erasure"

Upon hearing the main task, Wu Qi felt his hairs stand on end. When that monster revealed its yellow tentacles, he almost screamed.

Too similar.

Both the tentacles and the aura were too similar to the Yellow Robed King, who had once helped him seal the dream projection of the Water Ancestor.

And now, his feeling was fulfilled.

This time, the target to be obliterated was actually the projection avatar of the Yellow Robed King!

In the previous series of tasks in Luoyan City, it was with the help of the Yellow Robed King that Wu Qi sealed the Water Ancestor. The might of the Yellow King and the Water Ancestor's projection remained in his nightmares. Just seeing those yellow tentacles made him lose his courage!

Let alone, this time the Yellow Robed King's avatar was capable of destroying Taiyin!

Powerful! Despairing!

Meanwhile, some others were not affected by the name "Yellow Robed King." They simply looked to the other side and sneered: "Who are you?"

Fan Zhongxing broke free from the shock and then realized that aside from the Reincarnators on his side, there were actually others who were also unaffected by the frozen time and space.

Undoubtedly, they were also Reincarnators. This group of Reincarnators was fewer, only seven people, much fewer compared to the thirty-something Ancient Method Practitioners.

However, those Ancient Method Practitioners were even more nervous.

These people, undoubtedly, absolutely, surely were Modern Heretics!

Unbeknownst to them, the other side was also muttering to themselves.

However, these people all had this thing called "team chat," so their communication was silent.

"Isn't it said that the multiplayer instance of 'Demon Path Paradise' usually only has six people? Why are there over thirty more?"

"Has a self-acquired will emerged? Just like the so-called 'Derivatives' in the game?"

"Bullshit! What did those managers say last time? Isn't there only a very small chance for a derivative to appear in an instance? It's not like the unlimited slaughter dungeons."

"You two, calm down. The so-called 'Derivatives' are just a 'gimmick.' The Immortal Alliance has yet to roll out a large-scale Acquired Will Law Gate! Moreover, in a game that's internally tested, any 'contradictions' can occur. Do not reveal your identities!"

"Also, is there one more person on our side? This girl named 'Xiao Lv,' who are you..."

"This unit is a new type of NPC companion launched by the game, set as a 'Mechanical Man.'

A girl with twin-tails expressionlessly sent a line in the "team chat," prompting various Modern Cultivators to try to converse with her.

"What do our friends here call themselves?" Fan Zhongxing stepped out and extended his hand.

In his heart, he was reluctant to start a fight. Although these Modern Heretics were the least successful among the heretics, every one of them could steadily defeat seven or eight of the same level. In this case, this seven-man heretic team was far stronger than the Ancient Method Team.

However, his way of putting it was different.

"This time the task is not our opponents' task, and there is no benefit in killing each other. Moreover, these Wu Group disciples..." Fan Zhongxing pointed around. Those Wu Group servant disciples were not all "Reincarnators" or "players," and some were also frozen in time and space, clearly also life beings of this world. Fan Zhongxing continued: "...some are not Reincarnators. If we are found still fighting among ourselves by the strong ones of this world, it might not be good."

The Wanfa Sect disciple who looked like the Heretic Team Captain or the "Game Guild President" just thought for a moment and nodded, then turned to attempt a conversation with "Xiao Lv."

——An Acquired Will that can follow logic, unhindered in communicating with people! It's rare!

——Is this the latest achievement in the domain of natural language recognition?

Seeing the other's attitude, Fan Zhongxing suddenly felt a mysterious sense of defeat. He had clearly prepared countless arguments, yet the other party agreed just like that...

"Could it be that, in their eyes, we are so insignificant and powerless?"

After the two sides established their alliance intention, the voice of the Reincarnation Realm Master once again appeared in the ears of many Ancient Method Practitioners.

"Alliance intention confirmed, alliance established."

"During the task, allied teams must not attack each other."

On the Modern Cultivator side, the situation was much simpler,

as a line of text appeared in the eyes of all Modern Cultivators.

[Character "Worlds Traveler" has joined your team]

Some people's eyes lit up, thinking they had found a clue to "decode the world view."

After the alliance was established, time and space returned to normal. Even Daoist Wumu and the Yellow Robed King didn't notice; everything continued.

With Daoist Wumu's explanation, everyone gradually understood the ins and outs of the matter.

This yellow octopus is an Outer Heaven Demon, which destroyed Taiyin without cause. Afterwards, it felt too bored, so it found the Righteous Path Alliance and requested a game. If it won this game, Cangxia would be destroyed in March of the following year.

The content of the game is for it to become the Transmitting Technique Elder of a group of servant disciples at Li Mountain. It will teach these disciples and have them try to kill it.

All the disciples of Group W were shocked beyond expression. Someone shouted: "What kind of joke is this...? There's no mistake! This guy is an Outer Heaven Demon capable of destroying Taiyin! Even a True Immortal is only at this level! Yet we, a bunch of Golden Core..."

"Don't worry. For the game to be established, this monster has made many concessions. For example, it absolutely won't harm you. And also..."

"No matter what speed you attack me with, I will suppress my own speed to within twenty times the level of your cultivation. In other words, I will only avoid your attacks at twenty times the average speed of the Golden Core Stage," the avatar of the Yellow Robed King said with a smile.

Wu Qi said: "But, even if you stand still and let us hit you, we may not be able to injure you..."

"Don't worry." Daoist Wumu took out a Flying Sword and handed it to the Outer Heaven Demon. The moment the Outer Heaven Demon took it, water light rippled on the sword. It was not the Demon Cleansing Water, but Nagou Filth Water. Then, the tentacle of the Outer Heaven Demon melted.

"On the southern end of Cangxia, there is a small town named Yinmao Town. This town has already been occupied by a kind of demon called the 'Deep Diving Demon.' Magic artifacts made from this demon's scale armor and Demon Core can directly harm him. The Righteous Path Alliance will equip you with these magic artifacts free of charge."

This left the players of the Modern side bewildered: "What's the principle behind this?" "This doesn't align with the Heavenly Dao!"

"Nuhuhuhuhuhuhu. I, the Elder, am the avatar of the Pleiades Star Lord in this world, while the ancestor of this 'Deep Diving Demon' demon clan, named 'Da Gun,' was the demon pet of the six-day old ghost Water Ancestor. The Pleiades Star Lord and Water Ancestor have been enemies since ancient times, so sensing the aura of me, the Elder, Water Ancestor will secretly exert power. And at this moment, I am just an avatar, unable to resist the power of the Water Ancestor," explained the Outer Heaven Demon.

This explanation made Wu Qi break out in cold sweat again.

——Water Ancestor has traces of activity in this world!

——What about Flame King "Kege"? What about the Outer Saint?

——This world is so dangerous! Elder, I want to go back to the sect!

Daoist Wumu continued to explain: "After being tempered by the Artifact Refining Skill of the Immortal Alliance, the power of Water Ancestor won't harm you. So, you can boldly use them.

"The first batch of Water Demon Magical Artifacts includes a sword per person, a pair of gloves, a pair of boots, a set of hidden weapons. If you have any special needs, you can apply to the Righteous Path Alliance."

Another person asked: "Why does this Outer Heaven Demon want to play this game?"

"Very simple, my main body is also known as the 'Distant Banqueter,' and loves such interesting things!" The Outer Heaven Demon's voice carried a hint of excitement: "Ah, I can't wait to find out who will kill me!"

Daoist Wumu sighed: "In short, this is the situation. You have one year. By next March, if you haven't succeeded in killing this monster, the entire Cangxia will be gone. You will perish along with it!"

At this moment, Daoist Wumu once again laid out the setting of the "world view": "All of you have been judged as having 'underground talent' due to discordance of Dao Heart, lack of attitude, or Heart Demon Tribulation, which makes you suitable to become disciples of Group W at Li Mountain. This time, the Righteous Path Alliance has specially gathered you together; the future of Cangxia depends on you.

However, doubts still lingered in everyone's hearts.

——Why did the Outer Heaven Demon become our Transmitting Technique Elder?

——Why must it be us to kill it? Kill a Heavenly Immortal?

Then, all these concerns were dispelled by a single sentence from Daoist Wumu.

"If successful, the Righteous Path Alliance will spare no resources to elevate the contributors to the Mahayana Realm!"

Only one last person asked: "What do we call this... Elder?"

"I am the target of your assassination, so just call me 'Killing Elder.'" The Elder replied.

"That's how it is. Now, everyone, let's make the most of the remaining year more meaningful!"
