Upon returning to the Sect Forest, night had already fallen.
Throughout their journey back, these white-clad swordsmen were left with a sense of wanting more, and the younger disciples especially regretted not having the chance to demonstrate the results of their many years of hard training, especially since they had indeed gathered in far greater numbers than the members of the Summoning Demon Sect.
But overall, this resounding victory brought great joy to the members of the White Robe Sword Sect; they had even captured the Red-bearded Demon Lord alive and by interrogating him, they might even force out the true lair of the Summoning Demon Sect.
Zhu Minglang didn’t pay too much attention to this; after all, it was the business of the White Robe Sword Sect.
After resting for the night, early the next morning, Lín Zhong and Ming Xiu came knocking at his door again, expressing their intention to take Zhu Minglang to their Spirit Stone Cave.
“This Spirit Stone Cave is very special; the damp Spirit Stones inside exude spiritual dew that is extremely helpful to any cultivator. Normally, only some of our disciples who have made significant contributions have the opportunity to cultivate inside the Spirit Stone Cave. This time, Brother Zhu, you saved so many of our disciples’ lives. As thanks, I have also applied to the Sect Leader,” Lín Zhong explained.
A cultivation treasure trove!
Zhu Minglang would never turn down such an offer.
He now possessed a Gathering Spirit cultivation speed that was two hundred times faster, and with the addition of such a treasure trove, his cultivation base’s growth rate would be extremely rapid!
“Then please extend my thanks to your Sect Leader,” Zhu Minglang said.
“The Sect Leaders are already interrogating those from the Demon Sect. It is said that the location of their lair has been revealed by some Demon Sect followers who fear death more than disgrace. So now the Sect Leader and Leader Lei are discussing with the Sect Leader, planning to make one decisive push to completely eradicate the Summoning Demon Sect from our territory, and raise the prestige of the White Robe Sword Sect in front of the Four Major Sect Clans!” Lín Zhong said.
“That is good news, but you must take extra caution before you set out. The Summoning Demon Sect has many cunning and deceitful members. It would be more prudent for you to share the information with other forces and join them in a collective crusade,” Zhu Minglang said.

“Yes, that’s also what the Sect Leaders and Sect Leader think. We need to act quickly; if the members of the Summoning Demon Sect become aware, it would be more difficult to exterminate them again,” Lín Zhong nodded.
“That’s good. I have other matters to attend to, and after observing the Spirit Stone Cave, I must leave. If Brother Lín does not return in triumph by that time, then I shall take my leave of you now,” Zhu Minglang said.
Clearing out the Summoning Demon Sect’s lair?
Zhu Minglang didn’t plan to get involved in that.
He had been delayed here long enough and needed to continue on his way. As for the existence of Immortal Ghosts, Zhu Minglang couldn’t fully verify whether Ye Youying was telling the truth.
He ultimately felt that Ye Youying was concealing many things.
Especially regarding the Immortal Ghosts.
Are the Immortal Ghosts really controlled by the Summoning Demon Sect?
Zhu Minglang didn’t think so; he felt that the Summoning Demon Sect now seemed more like a group of followers of the Immortal Ghosts, with no ability or strength to harness the Immortal Ghosts.
It was still best to focus peacefully on his own cultivation; otherwise, if he truly encountered an entity at the level of a Mountain Immortal Ghost, he likely wouldn’t even have the ability to fend it off.
…
Heading towards the Spirit Stone Cave, Zhu Minglang felt a rich spiritual energy before even entering the cave; it was like a moist and warm gas enveloping him.
“Miss Ye Tanhua, you are also invited. Whether you are a cultivator or not, this can nourish your complexion,” Ming Xiu said.
Ye Youying had no interest in visiting the Spirit Stone Cave at all, but in order to safely leave this place, she had to continue playing the role of “Little Tanhua”!
Entering the Spirit Stone Cave, several lamps were lit, illuminating the humid and warm cave with unmatched clarity.
Sitting cross-legged, Zhu Minglang began his Condensing Qi and Nourishing Dragon practice. Lin Zhong had told Zhu Minglang that the Spirit Stone Cave was different from other spirit vein treasures. Absorbing spiritual energy here was a gradual process. If one could stay a day or two longer, slowly gathering spirit, the effects could be multiplied.
“Something is very wrong. If the Lujiang Demon Lord is there, even with thousands of White Robe Sword Sect members, they might not be able to take him down. Could it be that the Lujiang Demon Lord is injured?” Ye Youying was still pondering over the issues of the Demon Sect’s Inn.
“I think I understand now, your Summoning Demon Sect claims to be divided into two factions, one that retains its sanity, planning to make use of the Immortal Ghosts, and another that, at all costs, lets the Immortal Ghosts run rampant and worships them fervently. In fact, inside your Summoning Demon Sect, there are barely any who retain their sanity, and you can’t control the Immortal Ghosts at all,” Zhu Minglang said indifferently.
“It’s very hard to control, but…”
“Alright, let’s not linger on this. The Immortal Ghosts are inherently too dangerous. They are born out of immense resentment, and from the news of Immortal Ghosts coming from various places now, it’s clear that the Immortal Ghosts are controlling your Summoning Demon Sect, not the other way around… I snuck into the inn, took a look around, and saw that few of your Summoning Demon Masters are sane. They are like the people of the Shan Yuan Tribe, who blindly worship. I advise you not to waste your effort trying to use the Black Moon Child to control the Immortal Ghosts. You’d better change your name and live a peaceful life,” Zhu Minglang said.
Ye Youying fell silent all of a sudden.
How could she be unaware of these facts?
The Summoning Demon Masters should have been the leaders, controlling the demonic beasts to fight for them.
But because of the Immortal Ghosts, the summoning demon masters of the entire sect, regardless of their cultivation base, were like madmen worshipping the Immortal Ghosts. They fanatically worshipped these powerful false gods, causing harm and acting like ignorant folk who sacrifice boys and girls to the River God and the Mountain God in exchange for so-called favorable weather!
Foolish, insane, and irretrievably out of control!
…
Zhu Minglang devoted himself to cultivation, knowing that some things were simply beyond his ability to intervene.
Having seen that giant Earth Devil arm, Zhu Minglang knew that the Immortal Ghosts were still not something he could confront at the moment. Ye Youying was merely a summoning demon master who happened to be relatively sane. She alone could not change the fate of a sect.
The effects of gathering qi were quite remarkable, especially for the Little Glow Spirit, which particularly enjoyed the Spirit Stone Cave.
After reminding the Little Glow Spirit that it could indulge only in moderation and not drink to excess, Zhu Minglang also began to put aside his inner distractions and focus on his cultivation.
Ye Youying did not leave; she found a place to sit down herself.
She probably knew that whatever she did now was meaningless, so she too devoted herself to cultivation.
…
After some time passed, the cultivation base of the Azure Phoenix Azure Dragon had completely stabilized at the Peak Monarch Level.
Lin Zhong was right; the Spirit Stone Cave indeed accelerated the improvement of cultivation.
In such a cultivation treasure land, Zhu Minglang could go without eating, drinking, sleeping, or resting.
Big Black Tooth’s cultivation also began to rise, advancing from Middle-level Monarch Level toward the High Rank King Level. But as an Ancient Dragon, its main focus was still on combat; this quiet nourishment was merely icing on the cake.
