Lu Xiaolu said, "The trouble is also the Evil Extermination Departnt’s trouble. It shouldn’t affect you, right?"
Chu Zhiyuan said, "Everyone can eliminate the evil demons. Our Four Great Sects not only slay the demons but also the evil demons."
"Mainly we kill demons," Lu Xiaolu said. "I think demons deserve to be killed more than evil spirits, as they wholly prey on humans."
Chu Zhiyuan shook his head with a smile.
Lu Xiaolu said, "The Undying Evil Venerable is so troubleso. Getting involved with them ans no peace, better not to touch them at all."
"I’ve already destroyed their statues," Chu Zhiyuan said. "I’m already involved, there’s no escaping it."
Lu Xiaolu lightly furrowed her brows. "Did you see them while cultivating or sleeping?"
Her heart was filled with worry.
This Undying Evil Venerable is incredibly persistent. Once it gets hold of you, it doesn’t rest, it won’t let go until death.
This Undying Evil Venerable can’t be eradicated.
General evil venerables can be banished by destroying their statues, severing their connection to the world.
But the Undying Evil Venerable is different, as its statue cannot be destroyed; it always recovers.
Even if you can destroy it, it will reappear, descending from the sky, destructible but relentless.
The terrifying part of the Undying Evil Venerable is that, unlike other evil venerables, it doesn’t need a statue to channel its power, it gathers strength directly through touch.
The key issue is its ntal attack.
Once you’re marked by it, it will linger in your spiritual world, continuously interfering and attacking until you go mad and die.
The latter is the most terrifying aspect.
In the Ancient Era, many top experts fell under the Undying Evil Venerable.
Many who died from going insane were often victims of the Undying Evil Venerable.
Over ti, it seed as if the Undying Evil Venerable had withdrawn from the world.
Unexpectedly, they have returned.
Chu Zhiyuan encountered them, it can only be said that his luck was too terrible!
Chu Zhiyuan shook his head. "I haven’t sensed their presence."
"...Could it be different now?" Lu Xiaolu tilted her head in thought. "After such a long ti, they might have been severely weakened, not having their previous strength and power? Otherwise, their statues wouldn’t have been completely destroyed. You should know, the Undying Evil Venerable’s statue is indestructible."
Chu Zhiyuan said, "It should be because of the Demon Suppressing Saber."
"Your Demon Suppressing Saber indeed is formidable, but it’s more likely that they’ve weakened," Lu Xiaolu said.
Chu Zhiyuan laughed, "That would be the best case, judging by their nature, if they had a way to kill , they would have done it already."
"That’s right!" Lu Xiaolu instantly brightened up, her worry vanished, her gloomy jade-like face turned bright as she giggled and said, "Junior Brother’s luck has always been good."
Chu Zhiyuan said, "However, Senior Sister, you better not touch them for now."
"Of course," Lu Xiaolu promptly said. "What if it’s really your Demon Suppressing Saber’s prowess?"
Chu Zhiyuan said, "It says here, there’s a secret technique that can utterly destroy the Undying Evil Venerable."
"Junior Brother, you’re dreaming," Lu Xiaolu laughed. "How could such a secret technique be written on paper?"
Chu Zhiyuan took out a White Pearl from his sleeve and placed it on the ancient book.
Lu Xiaolu curiously looked at the White Pearl, perfectly round and flaw-free, about the size of a Dragon Eye.
It was originally quite ordinary, but after being placed on the ancient book, it started to emit a soft glow.
"What’s this?" Lu Xiaolu asked curiously. "What kind of treasure is it?"
"All Things Pearl," Chu Zhiyuan laughed. "A mystical artifact from the outer world that can see through all illusions."
"The Court’s All Things Pearl?" Lu Xiaolu exclaid in surprise. "How did you get it?"
Chu Zhiyuan smiled without speaking.
This All Things Pearl wasn’t the original. He had crafted a Round Jade Pearl and sealed the All Things Pearl’s power within it.
This was all based on the engraved patterns inside the All Things Pearl.
Lu Xiaolu chuckled charmingly, "You truly are sothing, Junior Brother."
She speculated that Chu Zhiyuan borrowed it through connections.
She then examined the All Things Pearl, watching as the glow illuminated the ancient book.
And in the gentle glow, the ancient book gradually beca illusory and transparent.
Yet so things remained opaque.
The opaque parts were a picture, an image of a tree and a person.
A man was posing in a strange posture, with a giant tree in his mind.
Chu Zhiyuan raised an eyebrow lightly.
He found the tree in the image familiar, recognizing it as the Demon Suppressing Divine Tree.
"Is this..." Lu Xiaolu exclaid, "the secret technique?"
Chu Zhiyuan said, "Could very well be?"
"It’s a visualization," Lu Xiaolu said. "Junior Brother, see if you can practice it."
Chu Zhiyuan lifted one leg, the other steady on the ground, extending his palms outward, fingers forming mystical handprints.
He slowly closed his eyes.
His heart and spirit were already connected to the Demon Suppressing Divine Tree. At this mont, with a slight visualization, it instantly cleared.
Suddenly, the shadow of the Demon Suppressing Divine Tree appeared in his mind, emitting a gentle golden light.
The gentle golden light spread throughout the entire void of his mind, instantly calming and soothing his mood, making all negative thoughts disappear, leaving him worry-free and fearless.
...
Above his head in the void, a gigantic transparent tree emitting a gentle light slowly erged.
This transparent giant tree seed to be made of crystal, with its trunk extending into the void, as if leading to the endless depths.
The roots of the giant tree sank into his head, as if everything stemd from his imagination.
Amid the gentle light, bright specks like dust kept falling from the leaves and branches, landing all over him.
He was enveloped in the gentle light and falling particles.
Lu Xiaolu watched in a daze.
Chu Zhiyuan imrsed himself in this peculiar ntal state, and after a long while, reluctantly opened his eyes, revealing a smile.
The shadow of the giant tree above his head in the void gradually faded, as if rging with the void.
It was clear it hadn’t disappeared, just hidden.
Chu Zhiyuan wore a broad smile.
Who would’ve thought it would be this coincidental, allowing him to succeed in one go, naturally and effortlessly.
"Brother, you’ve mastered it!" Lu Xiaolu’s bright eyes were fixed on him, exclaiming in admiration.
"I have," Chu Zhiyuan nodded. "It’s sowhat similar to my Demon Suppressing Saber, the power cos from the sa source, no wonder it could destroy the Undying Evil Venerable’s statue and remained undisturbed all this ti."
Lu Xiaolu’s eyes widened: "Is it really such a coincidence?"
Chu Zhiyuan chuckled: "That’s exactly it."
"No wonder then..." Lu Xiaolu marveled, "Let give it a try."
Chu Zhiyuan nodded.
Lu Xiaolu stared at the pattern in the ancient book, slowly lifted one leg, stood on one leg, with her jade-like hands spread wide, forming peculiar handprints.
Then she slowly closed her bright eyes, standing utterly still as she entered her visualization.
Chu Zhiyuan watched her closely, seeing her expression change from calm to heavy, and gently shook his head.
The Demon Suppressing Divine Tree is not so easily visualized; it requires imnse spiritual power.
Without having personally seen the Demon Suppressing Divine Tree, it’s impossible to imagine its grandeur and divine charm, making visualization even harder.
He believed that trying to use this diagram to master the Secret Technique was virtually impossible.
Only those extraordinary geniuses might have hope of succeeding.
Chu Zhiyuan thought that if he hadn’t seen the Demon Suppressing Divine Tree or connected his heart and spirit to it, he wouldn’t have mastered this technique either.
...
A quarter of an hour later, Lu Xiaolu opened her bright eyes, her jade-like face flushed red as if inebriated, with her gaze blurry, appearing as if she was drunk.
Chu Zhiyuan shook his head.
This was due to excessive spiritual exhaustion.
"Senior Sister, how was it?"
"...Not at all, no clue, couldn’t master it." Lu Xiaolu said listlessly.
Chu Zhiyuan said, "This Secret Technique shouldn’t be forced, nor is it necessary to master it at all costs."
"Ah..." Lu Xiaolu shook her head, "It’s a despairing Secret Technique! You won’t know until you try it."
Chu Zhiyuan said, "If it wasn’t for the Demon Suppressing Saber, I wouldn’t have mastered it either."
"Never mind, it’s good that you’ve mastered it," Lu Xiaolu said reluctantly. "Having you to deal with the Undying Evil Venerable is enough."
Chu Zhiyuan laughed, "In the future, when such matters arise, leave them to ."
"Ah..." Lu Xiaolu was still sowhat unwilling, looking at the transparent ancient book in the gentle light, and sighed, "It seems it is indeed because of the Demon Suppressing Saber that you aren’t affected by the Undying Evil Venerable."
Chu Zhiyuan slowly nodded.
He put the All Things Pearl back into his sleeve, and as the gentle light faded, the ancient book returned to its original appearance.
The transparent state and the visualization diagram from before seed as if they’d never appeared.
As they were speaking, a knock ca from outside.
Soon after, a young girl appeared lightly, her voice clear, "Senior Sister Lu, a brother from the Heavenly Sword Branch is here looking for Brother Chu, saying Director Huang from the Evil Extermination Departnt is asking for him."
Chu Zhiyuan said, "Senior Sister, I’ll be heading back."
Lu Xiaolu said, "Alright, I’ll practice this Secret Technique a bit more."
"Senior Sister, you’re not in good spirits; it’s best not to force it to avoid errors."
"Don’t worry, if sothing feels wrong, I’ll stop."
"Be extrely careful, don’t push it."
"I know, I know."
Chu Zhiyuan shook his head helplessly, bid farewell, and returned to the branch, where Huang Zhengyang’s people were already waiting.
He speculated that another statue of the Undying Evil Venerable had appeared.
According to ancient books, the statues of the Undying Evil Venerable co from the outer world, and they will descend continuously, not just two or three.
