The daily life of a max-level immortal cultivator

Chapter 233 The Human Heart

"Oh~ You've changed your taste again, Baiyou."

An uninvited guest arrived at the burial cave in the underground hot spring.

The "person" was dressed in a black robe, making it impossible to discern their identity or strength. Even their voice was disguised, though their tone was unusually familiar, showing no signs of unfamiliarity as a first-time visitor.

Bai You lay lazily on his throne, looking at the "guest" who had silently bypassed the heavily guarded burial pit and arrived before him with a slightly inquisitive expression.

Since she possessed abilities that even he, the Ghost King, couldn't detect, it seemed that her strength surpassed his own. Bai You released the beautiful female ghost he was half-embracing, but didn't show much wariness.

"Who are you, and why are you trespassing on my territory?"

The man in black robes casually took two steps forward, his tone still familiar and casual: "I've come today to discuss a business deal with you."

"Oh?"

Bai You looked surprised, but his deathly eyes showed no interest whatsoever. Nevertheless, he waved his hand, causing all the little devils who were pointing their swords at him to retreat.

Before long, only the two of them remained in the spacious cave.

Bai You casually straightened her clothes and walked down slowly until she was level with the man in black robes and kept a safe distance before stopping. She looked at the man opposite her with a smile on her face.

"Talk about it."

The person hidden behind the black robe seemed to chuckle twice in a low voice, then casually took two more steps, raised his withered right hand towards Bai You, and something immediately appeared in his hand.

The object was even darker than his robe, and it looked like a square box. No one knew what was inside, but a subtle aura emanated from it.

"Take a look at this item first. If it's normal, then we can discuss this business."

Bai You stared at the object in his hand in silence for a while, then chuckled without moving: "How would I know if this thing will harm me? Your method of forcing a sale upon entry is quite unique."

The man in black robes was still holding the object, and he didn't seem annoyed by the man's reply. He simply said calmly:

"You should know that my abilities are superior to yours, and killing you would be as easy as turning my hand. The reason I chose you instead of the other four kings is because the cultivation method you practice is suitable for 'it'."

"it?"

Bai You's gaze locked on it; without a doubt, the black-robed man was referring to the thing in his hand.

"Live?"

The man in black robes pulled his hand back a little. Even though he couldn't see anything, you could still tell he was looking at what was in his hand.

"You are very smart."

Bai You remained silent for a while, then spoke as if to himself: "I only cultivate one path, the Bone-Corroding Incense. Anyone who is intoxicated by this incense will have their bones corroded and turn into a corpse."

Then he looked at the box again, and a hint of emotion finally appeared in his lifeless eyes: "...So, what kind of business do you want to discuss with me?"

The man in black robes chuckled a few more times in a low voice, then slowly reached out with his other hand, which also resembled a withered branch, to lift the pitch-black square box.

Demon Realm

In a penthouse room on the top floor of a brothel within the jurisdiction of the four departments, singing, dancing, and revelry were taking place.

The man in the main seat was already drunk, but the beautiful women beside him kept bringing him cup after cup of wine, coaxing him with sweet voices and soft bodies.

"Xiao Lang~ What do you think of my suggestion? It's been several days already~"

The man called Xiao Lang leaned drunkenly against the beauty's chest, making promises to her in every word.

"Shuang'er, don't worry, I will, I definitely will..."

At this point, a cold glint flashed in his eyes, as if he had been holding back for a long time: "Kill the Demon Lord and replace him! Then I will make you my Demon Queen!"

The beauty who was half-embracing him stared straight ahead, her lips taut, her eyes filled with an intense hatred and surging demonic energy. Upon hearing this, her taut lips finally curved into a slight smile.

She could now ignore the music and dance in front of her, the subordinates making merry on both sides, the unbearable noises, and the scenes that would normally seem disgusting, and even... actively join in.

She smiled, but there was no real smile in her eyes. She looked down at the person in her arms. He had a very handsome face, but she couldn't feel the slightest desire for him.

Looking at him, I always see another person's face.

And that person, those beautiful times, are gone forever. Now, her only purpose in living is to kill that person! The one who took everything from her!!!

Destroy this world, and make everyone pay for her depravity!

The intense hatred had long since consumed her reason, her self-respect, and everything she had!

Everything, everything, should have been hers, hers!

It was that person, that disgusting outsider, who stole everything from her!

She deserves to die!

But ironically, those who originally came to admire her all ended up becoming the lackeys of that outsider!

Her opportunities and her path to success were all taken away, yet no one knew it!

Therefore, everyone deserves to die! Deserves to die!!!

Xiao Li is one of the four guardians of the demon realm. He has everything: cultivation, power, and subordinates. She even managed to seduce him with just a little trick.

Moreover, with the help of those memories from her past life, she can help him ascend to the throne, or even... destroy the world!

In her past life, she was kind and received much genuine love and friendship, leading a happy life. But because of this outsider, everything has changed in this life.

But it's okay, she will take it all back, little by little!

Since the dogs won't obey, kill them and replace them with another batch.

Look, the one in my arms is very obedient, no worse than the others.

There are a few others, and they're quite obedient too.

Wei Qiushuang laughed, and her smile grew wider and wider.

"Shuang'er, Shuang'er..."

The person in her arms kept calling her name, and Wei Qiushuang responded softly, her expression weary.

"Xiao Lang, I'm here."

After responding, she cupped his face in her hands, her gaze incredibly gentle, and leaned down to kiss him slowly.

Jiang Ling, I'm here...

East of the Lingshui border, outside the Lingshan Faxiang Temple on the Eighty-Six Islands

Looking at the tall and solemn gate of Faxiang Temple, and the many monks who came from afar, and being able to enter the temple without having to show their names, one can see how open and inclusive it is.

At this moment, Lu Xihan, who had come from afar outside the temple, felt more confident. After standing there for a while, he stepped into Faxiang Temple.

Faxiang Temple is located on Lingshan Island, one of the eighty-six connected islands, which is also the core area of ​​the eighty-six connected islands.

The temple is very large and there are many people coming and going. Apart from the ordinary Buddhist disciples who usually greet visitors, those with profound cultivation rarely show their faces. However, it is still easy to see the abbot, Zen Master Linghui.

After asking the disciples twice, Lu Xihan easily found the abbot's place, but the gatekeeper told him that the abbot had guests today and he would have to wait two days to see him.

"A distinguished guest?"

"Yes."

The disciple guarding the gate had a kind face and showed no impatience.

Lu Xihan pondered that someone who could be called a "distinguished guest" by such a powerful figure must be no small fry. It was quite a coincidence that they met today.

He looked up at the plaque above the courtyard gate again, which faintly exuded the Vajra power of Buddhism. Lu Xihan was not unaware of the limits.

Although the demonic poison had been afflicting her for over a month, and the festering sores on her back hadn't stopped, the solution was within reach. She wasn't impatient to wait, but she still asked again, somewhat anxiously:

"Could you please go and inform them that I have an urgent matter to discuss with Zen Master Linghui?"

Seeing that her expression seemed genuine, the disciple hesitated for a moment before replying, "Alright then, I'll go and report to the abbot. As for whether the abbot will come to see you, I can't be sure. Just wait and see."

"Thank you, young master."

Lu Xihan waited outside the door.

She wanted to use her divine sense to investigate the situation, but then she decided against it.

This is their territory, and I've heard that this abbot is also at the Tribulation Transcending Realm. Let alone divine sense, they probably already knew she was coming. If they wanted to see her, they would have done so already. Passing on messages is unlikely to be effective.

Sure enough, the young monk guarding the gate came out shortly afterward and replied, "Benefactor, you should go back and wait for a few days. The abbot will not come out."

As expected, Lu Xihan wasn't too disappointed. He figured he might as well wait a few more days. He'd already endured so long, and now that they were almost here, he wasn't afraid they'd run away.

"Alright then, I will come to see the abbot for the next few days. I hope I won't be a bother."

Lu Xihan glanced at the doorway a few more times with lingering reluctance, just as she was about to leave, when she saw someone walking in unhurriedly from inside.
