For now, only Yang Chen knows about this place. Not even the target he is waiting for knows that he will pass by here. This is not a deep mountain or old forest, or some valley or peak. It is simply on a very obvious road.
It is not an official road, but there are many people walking on it. If there are more people walking, an obvious road will be formed over time. It’s not spacious, but it’s smooth to walk on.
Yang Chen built a few rooms in a spacious place on this road, which served as a small inn. It is said to be an inn, but Yang Chen is the only one including the boss and waiter. Anyway, the number of people passing by on the road was not very frequent. There were only one or two every ten and a half days, Yang Chen was completely busy by himself.
No one knew that Yang Chen, a famous fifth-grade alchemist in the cultivation world and a master of the Dacheng stage, would start such a small business in such a remote corner.
Only Yang Chen knew that he was waiting for someone. Although he didn’t know the specific day that person passed by here, he was certain that it would be in the next dozen years.
Yi Tian was confused and had no idea how he ended up in this ghost place. Anyway, when he woke up from his coma, he found that he was already here.
Originally, Yi Tian planned to join the army, but he passed out on the way to join the army. Of course, Yi Tian didn’t join the army just to serve the king, he had his own plans.
Yi Tian was born in a family that practiced magic, and he was also a direct descendant of the family. But from childhood to now, Yi Tian has never practiced any skills. It’s not that he doesn’t have the talent to practice, it’s that his grandfather doesn’t let him cultivate.
Hundreds of years ago, there was a theory of postnatal spiritual roots in the cultivation world. It is said that it was proposed by Grandmaster Yang Chen. Later, Grandmaster Yang successively put forward a series of theories about the postnatal spiritual roots, including how to enhance some spiritual objects of the postnatal spiritual roots, etc.
After the postnatal spiritual roots appeared, the current head of the Yi family, Yi Tian’s grandfather, began to follow Grandmaster Yang’s teachings and started doing some in-depth research.
The Yi family is from a demonic background, and they don’t care about the rules and regulations when it comes to research. They will experiment with any method they think of, under this kind of unfettered and unconventional study, the ancestor of the Yi family did develop a quite unreasonable method, which can be used to enhance the postnatal spiritual roots.
Spiritual objects that can enhance the postnatal spiritual roots are something that can be encountered but cannot be sought. From the beginning, the ancestors of the Yi family never thought that their descendants would have such heaven-defying luck. So what he studies is a technique that absorbs people’s life essence.
The research on the technique was successful, but there was a fatal flaw. This technique can only be practiced by people before starting to cultivate, in order to achieve the purpose of improving the postnatal spiritual roots. Once you start cultivating, you will never succeed.
For a cultivating family, they robbed a large number of mortals so that their children could enhance their postnatal spiritual roots. It’s not a big deal, how could the Yi family, who was born in the demonic path, care about the lives of mere mortals? The fatal thing is that the news that the ancestor of the Yi family had developed this kind of method was somehow leaked by a descendant of a descendant of the family.
This kind of method requires killing tens of thousands of cultivators or hundreds of thousands of mortals to make one disciple of one’s family. In order to avoid being a big tree and attracting wind, it is definitely not possible for all disciples to be qualified to use it. A dissatisfied disciple from a certain side clan secretly leaked the news about the technique developed by the family head despite his hopelessness in cultivation.
The Yi family is just a small demonic family, not even a third-rate sect. Soon, the Yi family was surrounded by demonic cultivators who got the news. Of course, the head of the family was unwilling to hand over the skills. So, without any twists and turns, the Yi family was easily wiped out.
Of the entire Yi family, only Yi Tian was the only one who escaped. This is also the way out that the ancestors of the Yi family have foresighted and planned a long time ago. Yi Tian remembered the skills passed down by his ancestors in his mind, and embarked on the difficult road of cultivation alone.
If he want to practice cultivation, he has to kill people first. If he go on a killing spree in a certain place, it will be easy for the news to leak out. Secondly, Yi Tian cannot do it alone, so he planned to join the army and take the opportunity to cultivate in the army. On the way to join the army, he fainted inexplicably while sitting in a small inn on the roadside. When he woke up, he found myself in this strange place.
Yang Chen was waiting for Yi Tian here. Before he died in his previous life, he and Yi Tian had chatted for a while. Yi Laomo told him many things at that time, including the kind of demonic method that Yi Laomo had practiced. There are some things that happened when he started cultivating, this includes passing by this road.
Here, Yang Chen has been waiting for almost seven years, and finally waited for the young Yi Laomo. Yi Tian’s appearance did not change much from that of Yi Laomo in later generations, and Yang Chen recognized him at a glance.
In this life, Yang Chen relied on the demonic technique Yi Laomo taught him to achieve full postnatal spiritual roots of Yin-Yang and the five elements. In any case, this is Yang Chen’s acceptance of Yi Laomo’s love. Yang Chen had been thinking about how to end the relationship with Yi Laomo. When he had tens of thousands of the Greatest Heaven Sect’s disciples to kill, he naturally thought of Yi Laomo.
Calculating the time, it happened to be the day when Yi Tian would passby. Therefore, Yang Chen did not hesitate to bring tens of thousands of the Greatest Heaven Sect disciples here and waited for Yi Tian.
In his previous life, Yi Tian was a killer in the army, but he had such a bad reputation that he was immediately regarded as a demon before he even started cultivating. He was almost exterminated and defeated several times. The road to spiritual power cultivation was also bumpy, and his whole family was wiped out, so Yi Laomo developed the surly character of later generations and became the Yi Laomo that everyone feared.
Yang Chen didn’t intend to change Yi Laomo’s character. He just wanted to return the favor of Yi Laomo who told him the technique. These tens of thousands of Taitianmen disciples must die. Since they are going to die, why not use them to help Yi Laomo? Firstly, Yang Chen didn’t have to do it himself, and secondly, it fulfilled the cause and effect between Yang Chen and Yi Laomo, making Yi Laomo less dangerous at the beginning, which was regarded as the interest Yang Chen gave Yi Laomo.
When Yi Tian woke up, he found himself in an inexplicable space. Except for a few huts and some household items, the rest of the place was empty and there was nothing.
In the midst of surprise, hundreds of figures suddenly appeared in the open space ahead. The strange thing is that all of these people were lying on the ground motionless. If it weren’t for the fact that their chests were moving and they were breathing, Yi Tian might have thought that they were all dead.
“Kill them and you can leave!” A clear voice sounded in Yi Tian’s ears.
