Zhou Sui blinked.

He had initially thought that the Demon Seed would take at least a few days, if not several months, to activate.

However, he had drastically underestimated the intensity of a villain’s desire for revenge.

While a gentleman may bide his time for a decade to enact revenge, villains cannot wait even a second.

In just a few hours after his departure, Shangguan Xu and his ilk had already violated their promises and started plotting their revenge.

The outcome was predictable: they immediately triggered the Demon Seed’s contract and activated the Heart Demon.

In a sudden moment, their souls were completely devoured by the Demon Seed, stripping them of their sense of self.

With a simple intentional command from Zhou Sui now, these three would cease to exist in this world.

“Not bad, not bad at all. There’s no hurry to retrieve the Demon Seed.”

“Let’s keep it within these three for now.”

“As long as Shangguan Xu is alive, the Nascent Soul Ancestor Shangguan Qing won’t have any reason to move against Immortal Mist City.”

“Moreover, I can even leverage Shangguan Xu’s influence to investigate the intelligence of the higher-ups of the Wuji Alliance.”

Zhou Sui stroked his chin, feeling quite satisfied.

His plan this time can be deemed foolproof, not only resolving the crisis of Immortal Mist City but also implanting a pawn among the upper echelons of the Wuji Alliance.

Of course, since the trio of Shangguan Xu is essentially half-dead, they are akin to puppets that require manipulation.

Fortunately, for Zhou Sui, this is nothing more than child’s play.

With the help of the ‘Bookworm’ and ‘Clone Gu’, he had already mastered the art of multitasking.

Not to mention controlling three puppets, even controlling dozens is no issue for him.

“But the Bloody Old Monster actually wants to take on Immortal Mist City?”

“He sure has big guts.”

“Is it true that wealth tempts even the noblest of hearts?”

Zhou Sui narrowed his eyes.

Although he hadn’t completely devoured the Demon Seed and couldn’t know all of Shangguan Xu’s memories, he could still learn a small portion. Among them was information about the Bloody Old Monster.

This “Bloody Old Monster” had quite a notorious reputation.

The waters of the Wuji Alliance were full of stories of his infamy, even overshadowing the once-famous Three Owls of the Wu Clan.

He was known for bullying the weak and fearing the strong.

The islands targeted by the Bloody Old Monster were generally doomed.

Of course, he wouldn’t provoke those with too much power.

The reason he targeted Immortal Mist City was that its rapid development over the past decade had accumulated vast wealth.

Just like a nouveau riche.

However, the Bloody Old Monster was unaware of the trouble the Yu family and other Golden Core families had previously encountered with Immortal Mist City.

After all, this matter was not disclosed by the Immortal Mist Sect and the implicated families didn’t voluntarily expose their failures to avoid attracting the attention of rival families and inviting disaster.

As a result, the Bloody Old Monster and his band of robbers still treated Immortal Mist City as easy pickings.

“But this is also a good opportunity.”

“Once these robbers are taken care of, it’s unlikely that anyone would dare harm Immortal Mist City for a while.”

“Sometimes being too low-profile is not a good thing, as it makes one appear to be an easy target.”

“Only by showing power when necessary can one avoid all kinds of trouble.”

A cold glint flashed in Zhou Sui’s eyes.

He had already planned to eliminate the Bloody Old Monster and make him an example.

“But since the Bloody Old Monster and his gang dare to target Immortal Mist City, they must be confident.”

“They know about the Third stage array in Immortal Mist City, yet they still dare to invade.”

“They must have a way to break the array.”

“That means the Bloody Old Monster must have a Third stage Prohibition Breaking Talisman.”

“Too bad they don’t know, for me, the so-called Third stage Prohibition Breaking Talisman is completely useless.”

Zhou Sui stroked his chin again.

To be honest, ever since he had witnessed the power of the Third stage Prohibition Breaking Talisman during the last invasion by Golden Core Masters, he had been pondering over the past five years how to counteract its power.

With enough contemplation, he had finally discovered a way to crack the Third stage Prohibition Breaking Talisman.

The reason a third stage Prohibition Breaking Talisman can break a formation.

It’s because this kind of talisman can automatically find the nodes of a third stage formation. Once the node is rendered ineffective, the whole formation would be useless.

So why is it ineffective against the fourth stage formation?

Because the fourth stage formation is a composite formation, with too many nodes appearing.

Even if one is destroyed, there are others that can be used.

Furthermore, the nodes of the fourth stage formation can even move.

Therefore, the third stage Prohibition Breaking Talisman has no effect against the fourth stage formation.

But this doesn’t mean that the third stage Prohibition Breaking Talisman is invincible.

If that were the case, what would be the use of an Array Master? One could directly use the Prohibition Breaking Talisman and decode countless formations.

As long as the principle is known, the decryption becomes simple.

The third stage Prohibition Breaking Talisman can automatically find the nodes of the formation, so one can simply set up fake formation nodes, attracting the third stage talisman to the fake nodes.

Real is false, false is real; that is the mystery of the formation.

This is similar to the struggle between hackers and white-hat hackers in the computer world in the previous life.

If a virus invasion can be stopped, then the virus is useless.

The third stage Prohibition Breaking Talisman is the virus that invades the formation.

If the opposition thinks that they can do as they please with the third stage Prohibition Breaking Talisman, they’ll surely be in for a big surprise.

A few days later.

Outside the Water Star Island of the Tri-Star Island Group, near Immortal Mist City.

A streak of light flies by, standing in mid-air, five elderly men with yellow and thin faces appeared over the sea. They were emanating a terrifying wave of mana, forming an actual pressure.

“So this is Water Star Island’s Immortal Mist City?”

“Just as the intelligence said, it was established only ten years ago but has gathered a large amount of wealth.”

“If we were to plunder this city, we might be able to gather enough resources for the five of us to reach the Nascent Soul stage.”

The one speaking was the Blood Path Old Monster, a cultivator at the completion of the Golden Core stage, radiating terrifying Fire Element Mana, as if forming an endless sea of fire, that suffocated the surroundings.

“It is said that the Immortal Mist City was built by three foreign Golden Core Sects.”

“Together they only have three Golden Core cultivators, two are at the latter stage of the Golden Core and one is at the beginning.”

“However, the setup of a third stage formation here is indeed a bit troublesome.”

Another Golden Core cultivator revealed a cold light in his eyes. His name was Ice Ape Old Monster, a cultivator of the same stage as the Blood Path Old Monster, possessing a terrifying Ice Element Divine Art. He carried an aura of coldness that seemed capable of freezing the entire sea region with ease.

“Don’t worry, I have three third-stage Prohibition Breaking talismans on me.”

“Just a third stage formation. Easy to break.”

“With the third stage formation gone, won’t dealing with these three Golden Core female cultivators be as easy as turning over one’s hand?”

Another Golden Core cultivator spoke, he was called Green Bull Master. He emitted Wood Element Mana, with green creepers coiling around his body and his skin was like dry bark. He was also a cultivator who was not inferior to the Blood Path Old Monster.

“Not bad, not bad, since that’s the case, there’s no need to waste time.”

“Now is the time to show these three foreign Golden Core Sects the cruelty of the Wuji Alliance’s sea region.”

“Although the Canglan Sea region is vast, it doesn’t mean any sect can exist here.”

A terrifying murderous intent erupted from the Blood Path Old Monster. He flashed and appeared in the sky above Water Star Island. The terrifying Golden Core Law Domain emanated from his body. Fire dragons seemed to coil around him, and an endless sea of fire was released within dozens of miles.

“Immortal Mist Sect, Danding Faction, Qingmu Sect.”

“Come out and die!”

His voice was thunderous, encompassing the mana of a Golden Core stage, sweeping through the entire Immortal Mist City and even affecting some parts of the Water Star Island.

This shocked many cultivators who were in meditation, waking them from their cultivation. Their eardrums ached, some even suffered internal injuries, and they couldn’t help but spit out a mouthful of blood.

Many Loose Cultivators living in Immortal Mist City were uneasy, completely unaware of what was happening.

At this moment, Ji Bingyu, Mu Ziyi, Xia Jingyan, as well as Leng Yuexi, Shen Biqian, and Lin Yazhu, who were residing on Immortal Mist Peak, all heard the voice of this Golden Core Master.

“The Blood Path Old Monster has finally arrived, huh?”

Zhou Sui opened his eyes, sensing the auras from outside the island. He had been waiting for a long time.

Therefore, he wasn’t surprised at the arrival of the five Golden Core Masters from outside.

Whiz!

In an instant, Leng Yuexi, Shen Biqian, and Lin Yazhu, the three Golden Core Masters, looked at each other with grave expressions. They flashed and turned into a streak of light, arriving above Immortal Mist City and at the edge of the formation, facing the Blood Path Old Monster and the others from a distance..
