When Zhou Qing returned once again, Lu Yaoyao hurriedly stood up to greet him, her face full of concern and anticipation.
In the past half year, she had almost completely absorbed the top-grade wood attribute Spirit Stone, not only consolidating her previous realm but also steadily advancing.
Now her strength had increased significantly compared to before, and her aura had beco even more composed.
"We can start preparing!" Zhou Qing said with a grave expression.
Upon hearing these words, Lu Yaoyao’s eyes imdiately lit up, flashing with excitent and determination.
The two of them then left, finding a place far away from Beimang Mine to avoid Blood Bone Old Ghost hearing any noise or Sima Demoness sending out a distress signal for aid.
After selecting a suitable location, Zhou Qing did not delay any further and hurriedly took out the array materials he had prepared earlier from his Storage Bag, focusing on setting up the Thunder Fla Spirit Devouring Array.
He carefully infused it with one Spirit Seal after another to ensure foolproof execution.
It took a full three days for Zhou Qing to finally complete all the preparations.
"The next step will be a life-and-death battle. I might need your help at that ti," Zhou Qing said seriously to Lu Yaoyao.
Even with backup Blood Qi and Spiritual Power, he anticipated becoming completely exhausted, not to ntion other unpredictable variables.
Lu Yaoyao nodded firmly, expressing her understanding and saying without hesitation, "Don’t worry. No matter what happens, I’ll stand with you."
Hearing this, Zhou Qing felt a wave of emotion in his heart.
After giving her a few more instructions, he went off to figure out how to lure the enemy into the trap.
Watching Zhou Qing’s departing figure, Lu Yaoyao couldn’t help but sigh, "So handso!"
Who would believe that a Golden Core Realm cultivator and a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator would dare to team up to ambush a powerhouse at the Nascent Soul Great Perfection stage?
And moreover, this person was one of the top five prodigies of the Cangyan Daoist Palace.
Subsequently, she found a hidden spot to conceal herself, waiting for the right mont.
...
Upon returning to Beimang Mine, Zhou Qing sneaked in again. After confirming the person was still there, he quietly left and waited in silence around the area.
This waiting lasted for half a month. Today, he finally saw a familiar figure speeding toward him.
The woman was dressed in a tight-fitting crimson robe, with a low neckline revealing a large expanse of white skin.
Her face was stunning, yet her narrow, slightly upturned phoenix eyes exuded a hint of inherent ruthlessness and cunning.
She looked exactly like the woman he had seen in Tian Xiong’s mories at the Blood Rock Mine.
"Sima Demoness —" Zhou Qing’s eyes were instantly filled with murderous intent.
But suddenly, just as Sima Demoness was about to enter the mine, she seed to sense sothing and abruptly paused, looking cautiously in Zhou Qing’s direction.
Zhou Qing imdiately concealed his aura, not daring to move.
Luckily, she only glanced briefly and, finding nothing unusual, continued into the mine.
Zhou Qing breathed a silent sigh of relief.
"Such sharp vigilance!" Zhou Qing frowned, becoming even more cautious.
Moreover, he still didn’t know what the opponent’s Nascent Soul augntation was.
After lurking outside for another five days, he finally saw Sima Demoness co out again.
But this ti, over a hundred black-robed individuals, moving stiffly, followed her.
Back when Zhou Qing brought the Cave Image Stone and a newly transford puppet back to the sect, Sect Leader and the others’ research confird that the transformation of those puppets happened in two stages.
The first stage was the embedding of arrays, making the captured individuals utterly obedient. This only ensured their safe return to the sect, turning them into ordinary puppets regardless of their previous cultivation levels.
The true soul infusion, however, required a Divinity Transformation strongman to complete the final, unknown transformation.
Therefore, Zhou Qing was not worried about these black-robed figures. In fact, they might even beco a burden for Sima Demoness.
Seeing Blood Bone Old Ghost waving goodbye inside the mine, Zhou Qing quietly withdrew and then took the fastest detour to "accidentally" run into Sima Demoness.
...
Sima Demoness looked at the waterfall before her and stretched lazily.
Her tight-fitting clothes stretched slightly with her movents, outlining an enticing silhouette.
She then whispered softly, and over a hundred black-robed figures behind her stopped uniformly and turned around together.
"After traveling through such remote areas, who would’ve thought there’d be such a beautiful scenery here!"
Sima Demoness imdiately took off her outer crimson robe, her figure swaying with endless allure.
Just as she was about to remove another piece of clothing, she suddenly squinted her eyes, looking toward the sky.
There, a figure was swiftly approaching.
"Is that... Zhou Qing of the Taiqing Sect?"
Upon recognizing the person’s appearance, Sima Demoness was initially stunned, then overjoyed, even licking her lips reflexively.
What a stroke of luck—it seed soone had chosen the sa route as her.
"ng Xing, Song Yuan, is this a gift you’ve sent in the dark? In that case, I won’t let it go to waste!"
Sima Demoness muttered to herself, as a blood-red scythe appeared in her hand.
The scythe emitted a strange crimson glow, its handle made of unknown white bones, with runes flickering on it, giving off a terrifying feeling.
