The Game with Fairies

Chapter 298: Heavenly Secrets

“...Could this be the danger mentioned by the people in the chat group?”

Li Muyang, in his ascended state, watched incredulously at everything before him, at the reality of the Demon Refining Sect’s gates.

On each of the rotting pieces of corpse, there were houses and palaces built.

Every inner disciple of the Demonic Sect lived on these pieces of corpse, their feet stepping on the rotting flesh and blood.

The streams flowing on the floating islands were the blood vessels and tendons of the demon god.

The huge waterfall cascading down from the main peak of the Demonic Sect, Taxue Peak, turned out to be the blood-stained purple hair of the demon god.

The scenes visible in his field of vision were shocking and terrifying.

Li Muyang stared blankly at all this, the profound and mysterious state of ascension quietly ended, and he returned to his physical body.

Standing stiffly and dazedly on the deck of the flying boat, Li Muyang looked forward again, and the gates of the Demon Refining Sect approaching in his field of vision had returned to their usual appearance.

On each of the floating islands, streams meandered, waterfalls hung, pavilions and palaces were scattered among them, and flocks of white cranes flew through the air, a scene that seemed like the abode of immortals.

Even if Li Muyang activated the Spiritual Vision Eye, the floating islands in his field of vision no longer changed.

It seemed that the eerie and creepy scenes could only be seen clearly in the state of 【Ascension】.

But how to trigger this extremely profound state of 【Ascension】, Li Muyang was still unclear.

He simply etched everything he had seen into his memory, planning to ask Yan Xiaoru later.

There really were explosive secrets hidden within the Demon Refining Sect.

But Li Muyang showed no signs of anything unusual, quickly stabilizing his emotions.

He talked and laughed with his little sister as if nothing had happened.

However, while Li Muyang appeared normal, Li Yuechan beside him was somewhat distracted.

After chatting for a few moments, the girl suddenly made an excuse, saying she needed to go back and look for something, and hurriedly left.

Watching his sister suddenly leave, Li Muyang stood on the deck and took a deep breath.

Everything he had seen in the ascended state was deeply imprinted in his mind.

......

And behind him, the girl Li Yuechan quickly left the deck and walked into the cabin.

The smile on her face suddenly vanished.

Her expression was filled with disbelief.

“...senior, did you say my brother is an Ascender?!”

The words her senior had said on the deck had shocked her.

The voice of the mysterious woman quietly sounded in her ear.

The mysterious woman was also filled with surprise at this special discovery.

“Yes, your brother is an Ascender... The one who caused the disturbance of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is your elder brother, Li Muyang.”

The mysterious woman’s tone was somewhat complex as she confirmed this.

“I never expected the Ascender we were looking for to be right beside you.”

Ascenders overlook all beings and gaze directly at the origin of the world, and during ascension, they are touched by the essence of the world’s origin, which greatly aids their future cultivation and path to enlightenment.

This is an opportunity to become an immortal, and nearly every Ascender can become a true immortal.

If one could find an Ascender and devour him, they could steal this thread of heavenly secrets.

The technique that the mysterious woman taught Li Yuechan happened to have such a devouring method.

When the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was in turmoil before, the mysterious woman had guessed the birth of an Ascender.

She had intended for Li Yuechan to find the Ascender and seize his heavenly secrets, but she never expected the Ascender to be so close...

But as soon as she finished speaking, Li Yuechan shook her head vehemently, immediately refusing.

“No! I can’t devour my own brother!”

The girl said firmly, “He is my brother. I cannot harm him.”

“Senior, we don’t want this thread of ascension to immortality!”

The girl resolutely refused, her attitude unwavering.

The mysterious woman fell silent for a moment, then expressed her regret.

“That was an opportunity to become an immortal... After the age of dharma decline, there were no true immortals left in this world.”

The mysterious woman did not persist in persuading her, only lamenting with regret.

The chance to become an immortal... It was enough to drive the common people mad with desire.

But Li Yuechan just smiled and shook her head.

“They say when one attains the Tao, even the chickens and dogs in their family ascend to heaven. If my brother truly becomes an immortal, it’s no different from me becoming one.”

“He would surely look after me if he became an immortal.”

“Moreover, even without that opportunity, relying on myself alone, it’s not impossible for me to become an immortal.”

Li Yuechan’s words were filled with strong confidence.

Back when she entered the Inner Sect, Li Yuechan had already reached the Golden Core realm.

Taking advantage of the chaos within the Blood Lotus Sect, the girl had quietly devoured many cultivators from the Blood Lotus Sect and the Demon Refining Sect.

Furthermore, with the recent surge in spiritual energy, her cultivation had skyrocketed, and Li Yuechan was now in the late stages of the Cave Profound realm, not far from the Divine Travel Realm.

If she were to go to the outside world, she could even become an elder in a medium or small sect.

Even in a major demonic sect like the Demon Refining Sect, she could be revered as a sect offering.

Being so young and yet possessing such cultivation, she was full of confidence in herself.

Feeling the girl’s confidence, the mysterious woman smiled and sighed, “You girl...”

......

Inside the cabin, Li Yuechan and the mysterious woman were conversing.

On the deck, Li Muyang looked up as the gates of the Demon Refining Sect approached rapidly, but the flying boat did not enter directly, instead hovering outside the gates.

Only the largest flying boat, carrying the ancient immortal artifact, the Four Directions Cauldron, and the Ancient Blood Lotus, entered the Taxue Peak under the escort of the Demonic Sect elders.

The other escort flying boats remained outside the gates, waiting for everything to settle before special personnel would guide the Demonic Sect disciples and allies on the boats to leave.

In this campaign to eradicate the Blood Lotus Sect, not only Demonic Sect disciples were involved, but also many demon caves under the Demon Refining Sect’s rule, bringing many powerful demons.

These powerful demons were invited into the gates of the Demon Refining Sect and arranged to stay on the floating islands designated for honored guests.

Meanwhile, Li Muyang and the other inner disciples returned to their homes, quietly awaiting their rewards.

Normally, upon returning to the sect, a celebration feast would immediately commence to reward the Demonic Sect disciples who had distinguished themselves.

But the rumors heard earlier turned out to be true.

On the way back, the Demonic Sect sect leader, Gong Yanghong, sensed an opportunity for a breakthrough and reached a critical juncture.

Therefore, the first thing the elders did after escorting the ancient immortal artifact into Taxue Peak was to protect the Demonic Sect sect leader during his closed-door breakthrough.

Now everyone was waiting, waiting for the sect leader to successfully break through.

Li Muyang returned to his home in the Hall of Enforcement.

After arriving, he didn’t wander around but directly closed his door to “cultivate,” sitting cross-legged with closed eyes.

He entered the game.

As Li Muyang logged into the game, he once again found himself in the body of the Moon-Biting Dragon.

That familiar feeling of being engulfed by darkness lasted for a few seconds.

When the darkness around Li Muyang receded, he found himself standing under a sky full of stars.

Ahead was a dark cave, emitting a faint demonic aura.
