"The demon slayer Zhang Qingxuan possesses heaven-defying Taoist skills, leading the disciples of the Taiping Town Demon Division to achieve victory with fewer troops, fighting one against a hundred, and causing the Underworld Soul Sect to wail in despair."
"His personal strength is formidable, even defeating the Underworld Soul Sect Leader in a crushing victory, making the Taiping Town Demon Division famous far and wide!"
"And the Taiping Town Demon Division where Zhang Qingxuan is located actually originates from Taiping City in the Nine Dragon Domain."
"However, few people know the true background of Taiping City. Most people only know that Taiping City held an unprecedented auction, but they don't know that its background is actually the creation of an ancient immortal lineage…"
The storyteller in the teahouse spoke eloquently on the stage, describing the story of the ancient immortal lineage and Taiping City.
For ordinary cultivators, regions that are too far away are legendary places.
They can try their best to reach areas with high spiritual energy concentration, but ordinary cultivators find it difficult to decide to spend several years traveling to gamble on the unknown.
Wouldn't it be better to use this time to cultivate?
Moreover, areas with rich spiritual energy also mean dealing with difficult dangers.
Therefore, although they yearn for it in their hearts, only a few cultivators dare to take action, and can only learn about information from other regions through the stories of storytellers.
"Tell me some local stories. I just came from the Nine Dragon Domain and want to know the stories from around here."
Inside the teahouse, a handsome young man wearing a purple-gold Taoist robe, with eyes as bright as stars, spoke.
Everyone's eyes were drawn to him, first attracted by his handsome appearance and extraordinary temperament, and then drawn to the two beauties beside him.
The woman on the left was elegant like a celestial being, and the beautiful woman on the right was plump and charming.
Their appearances were absolutely stunning and captivating, truly rare in the world.
The two women were close to the young man, looking very intimate, envied by all the customers in the teahouse.
"Of course, there are also stories from around here…"
The storyteller paused slightly, hinting with his eyes.
The young man smiled slightly upon hearing this and casually tossed out a hundred spiritual stones.
The storyteller immediately beamed with joy and said loudly: "If you want to talk about the most brutal sect in this area, then you have to mention the Ancient Demon Sect, which is tyrannical and inhumane and practices blood cultivation…"
This young man in the teahouse is Chen Changsheng, who has just arrived in the Taihang Domain, accompanied by Miao Miao and Li Linyu.
"The name Ancient Demon Sect sounds like a demon cultivator sect?"
Chen Changsheng turned his head and asked the Qi Refining cultivator at the next table.
The other party immediately nodded: "Young Master is right. However, it seems that the sect has only been established for about a hundred years, and does not have a deep foundation, but it is said that the Ancient Demon Sect Master is breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage, and has a very deep foundation."
The Nascent Soul stage is a hegemonic existence in the edge of the Taihang Domain.
Even the Golden Core Perfected cultivators who have not yet reached the Nascent Soul stage are equally invincible.
At this time, a Foundation Establishment cultivator at another table said with a look of disdain: "What Nascent Soul breakthrough? It's obviously just impacting the late stage of Golden Core. It's just that the Ancient Demon Sect is deliberately spreading exaggerated news in order to strengthen itself and prevent the righteous path from interfering during this period, in order to deter the righteous path."
"The middle stage of Golden Core is also very powerful, and the other party is a demon cultivator, so their strength is comparable to the late stage of Golden Core of the righteous path, and cannot be provoked."
"I don't agree with this. If the people of the Ancient Immortal Lineage take action, demons and heretics will still be subdued and suppressed under the same realm."
"That's right, demons and heretics are only stronger than ordinary righteous path cultivators, but they are not as good as the righteous path with ancient heritage."
"In other words, as long as the people of the Ancient Immortal Lineage take action, they can easily kill the Ancient Demon Sect scum?"
"Of course, I've long been annoyed by this kind of scum. They have turned to evil demons and practice cultivation with the blood of the human race, causing widespread devastation. Don't be indifferent to this, everyone. When these demon cultivators become stronger, the first thing they will do is come for us!"
As he lived longer and saw more scenes, he initially felt the changes in the state of mind of those powerful cultivators.
Some people choose to follow their hearts, thus becoming numb, indifferent, and even believe that the fate of ants in the world of cultivation is only death.
Some people choose to be vigilant and always maintain a mortal state of mind, not forgetting the original reason for pursuing immortality.
The most typical examples are Luo Liuxi and Zhuo Heng. The former is impacting the Transformation God stage, and still treats others with a peaceful mind, while the latter has reached the Integration stage, and can still talk to Chen Changsheng on an equal footing.
It is precisely because of frequent contact with such people that Chen Changsheng can often remind himself not to forget his original intention.
"Hmph, who is discussing my Ancient Demon Sect? Do you want to join my Ancient Demon Sect?"
Suddenly, a group of tall black-clothed cultivators walked into the teahouse, their bodies so large that they were somewhat bloated.
Black brocade clothes covered their entire bodies, revealing only their heads, and they could vaguely see scale patterns on their necks.
The noise in the teahouse stopped abruptly for a moment, and even the storyteller closed his mouth, looking at the Ancient Demon Sect disciples with fear.
"What? You dare to discuss my Ancient Demon Sect, but now you dare not admit it?"
Xin Yuan spat disdainfully, and said with a mocking smile: "What a bunch of cowards! Weak and powerless, only daring to say bad things behind your backs, have the guts to say it to my face!"
"Waiter, bring wine!"
Xin Yuan walked towards a table, and the faces of the righteous path cultivators on the seats changed drastically. Seeing the other party getting closer and closer, several righteous path cultivators turned pale, and finally chose to get up and make way obediently.
After all, face is not as important as life.
The waiter stepped forward, bowing and trembling: "Guest, our shop specializes in tea, we don't have wine, what do you think…"
Bang!
An Ancient Demon Sect disciple beside Xin Yuan slammed his hand on the table and shouted angrily: "If you don't have it, won't you go buy it? Are you trying to drive us away?"
"Okay, okay, we'll go right away."
The waiter dared to be angry but dared not speak out, and the faces of the surrounding people were ugly, but they had no way to deal with this group of arrogant Ancient Demon Sect disciples.
More than a dozen Foundation Establishment stage cultivators stood together, and the demonic aura they exuded made many customers in the teahouse breathless.
The cultivation level and number of people present were not as good as the other party, and they were all worried that if they stood up, no one would follow, leading to their own tragic death on the street.
Not belonging to the same sect, who would dare to bet their lives on strangers?
Chen Changsheng shook his head helplessly, unable to comment on this.
The Ancient Immortal Lineage can face demons and heretics without fear, but most ordinary cultivators cannot do it. Relying solely on enthusiasm will only kill themselves.
This is the cruelty of the cultivation world, and it cannot be changed.
And you can't completely blame the righteous path cultivators for being weak. Sometimes, it's just that the first bird gets shot.
"Oh? Two pretty sisters over there, come over and let brother take a closer look."
Xin Yuan suddenly noticed two beautiful women in the teahouse, which made his lower abdomen feel hot.
