Chapter 367: Chapter 367: Mountain Piercing Escape!

Above the Hun Demon Sect, the battle was fierce. The Righteous Cultivators and the remaining cultivators of the Hun Demon Sect were fighting to the death.

Profound Qi and Demonic Qi surged violently, causing constant fluctuations in the void.

Below the Hun Demon Sect, apart from the overpowering darkness and pervasive Demonic Qi,

there was no trace of battle or fluctuations, only a peaceful and harmonious atmosphere!

Yang Yan walked in the darkness, surrounded by turbulent Demonic Qi.

“There should be quite a few Demon Weapons here, or many Demon Cultivators might have passed through.

Or perhaps this is where the Demon Dragon Vein lies,” Yang Yan thought to himself.

The Righteous Cultivators founded sects and established dynasties,

naturally choosing a place with favorable feng shui and Dragon Veins, to nurture extraordinary talents and prolong their lineage.

For the Evil Demon Sect, it was the same.

The places where Evil Qi, wickedness, and Demonic Qi were most concentrated were the preferred locations for cultivators of the Evil Demon Sect.

And such a location was where the Demon Dragon Vein was found!

The Evil Demon Sect would always establish their sect on a Demon Dragon Vein!

Otherwise, they would lack the power of cultivation and couldn’t give birth to cultivators of the Evil Demon Sect.

“If there were Divine Origins here, that would be the best!” Yang Yan thought to himself.

Demon Weapons, such items, couldn’t be used by Righteous Cultivators.

Even if he could use them, he needed to consider carefully.

After all, the power within him was not Demonic Qi.

But Divine Origin was different!

Divine Origin contained pure power, which both Righteous and Evil Demon cultivators could absorb and transform into their own strength.

It was something that both Righteous Cultivators and Demon Cultivators desired to possess.

“Given the size of the Hun Demon Sect, it should have some reserves as a foundation!”

He walked through the underground passage, his gaze penetrating the darkness.

A small vortex formed at his heart, continuously absorbing the Demonic Qi from the cave.

This was the Evil God Demon Seed cultivating on its own!

Yang Yan didn’t bother with it!

With the fierce battle aboveground, who would notice the presence of an Evil God Demon Seed quietly cultivating amidst the rich Demonic Qi below?

“Just let it cease cultivation when we go up. For now, let it cultivate to its heart’s content and grow stronger!”

The vortex at his heart grew larger, absorbing more and more Demonic Qi.

Yang Yan himself quickened his pace and soon arrived at the deepest part.

Inside a huge cave, it was completely empty.

Only the stone walls around were engraved with many patterns and murals.

“So barren? Nothing at all?” Yang Yan glanced around, feeling speechless.

There wasn’t even a single Demon Pill or Demon Weapon!

Spotlessly clean!

All that was present was a dense, unchanging Demonic Qi, Evil Qi, and a few black stones.

“Could it be that the elders of the Righteous Path took it?” he couldn’t help but wonder.

For Righteous Cultivators, Demon Weapons and Demon Pills were of no use.

But the materials and herbs used for refining Demon Weapons and Demon Pills could be useful!

After decomposing and removing the Demonic Qi, they could still be used for alchemy and crafting.

Moreover, Righteous Cultivators could secretly buy and sell Demon Weapons and Demon Pills!

There were plenty of cultivators in the Evil Demon Sect, so there was a market!

“Did I come here for nothing?”

Yang Yan wouldn’t have it!

“If there are no Demon Weapons or Demon Pills, then I’ll just extract the Demon Dragon Vein beneath this sect!

It’s worth the journey!”

The Demon Dragon Vein in his hands could easily have its Demonic Qi and Evil Qi removed.

What would remain was the pure power of the heaven-and-earth feng shui!

Although removing the Demonic Qi and Evil Qi would weaken the Dragon Vein overall, it was still a Dragon Vein, a valuable thing!

Yang Yan stomped his foot, causing the mountain to crumble and the ground to shatter, vibrating the cave incessantly.

A Demon Dragon Vein beneath the ground roared, attempting to break free from his grasp.

But in front of him, a single Demon Dragon Vein was no match and was easily suppressed.

He extended his hand, ready to extract the Demon Dragon Vein below, intending to destroy the whole Hun Demon Sect.

Suddenly, his True Profound Immortal Pupil pierced the darkness, seeing within the empty cave.

Changes were occurring in the void, and a large stone, merged with the darkness, secretly moved, preparing to slip into the fluctuating void.

“Hmm? Disguise?”

At first, Yang Yan thought it was just a rock, so he didn’t look too closely.

He hadn’t expected that attempting to extract the Demon Dragon Vein and destroy the Hun Demon Sect would alert this disguised stone.

“This stone is a living creature, must be a good treasure!”

He moved swiftly, pressing one hand onto the vortex formed in the void and the other onto the black stone.

This action caused the stone to tremble violently.

It knew it had been caught by Yang Yan!

It slammed onto the ground, trying to escape into the earth.

“Earth Escape?”

In front of Yang Yan, this was a mere child’s trick.

Grasping the creature’s body, he lifted the black stone into the air.

It was then he realized this wasn’t a stone at all.

But rather a demon beast, resembling a pangolin.

The creature had disguised itself as a giant stone, almost fooling him!

Yang Yan saw through the creature’s physique, penetrating its body.

“Its body mostly mirrors a stone, the disguise was too perfect, no wonder I didn’t see through it immediately!”

Yet at the depths of this demon beast’s body lay a vast space.

Within it were many artifacts.

Including Demon Weapons and Demon Pills!

“I thought the elders had taken the Demon Weapons from here.

Turns out you were the one who stole them!

Hurry and hand everything over, or I’ll slash you!” Yang Yan threatened!

The eyes of the demon beast moved, and the stone-like regions within its body reverted to normal flesh.

Within the restored physique, power fluctuated, as if preparing a strike.

“You better not think of sneaking an attack on me, or I’ll crush you right here!”

He exerted more pressure, causing the creature’s physique to creak, nearing collapse.

“No, don’t kill me!” the demon beast hurriedly cried out. “I’ll give you whatever you want!”

Yang Yan was finally satisfied.

“Very well, but first, tell me what on earth you are!”

This creature could transform into a large stone, hide so effectively, enter here, and even speak human language!

Clearly, it wasn’t an ordinary demon beast!

Not to mention the vast space hidden within its body, a mystery even to his True Profound Immortal Pupil!

“I am a Demon Clan pangolin!” the demon beast replied trembling.

Pangolin!

Yang Yan felt like he had heard this somewhere before!

Then he remembered encountering a pig that claimed to know a Demon Clan friend named Pangolin during his preparation to slay the Black Feathered Flood dragon King in the Yiwan Forest.

The creature had said it had a penchant for grave robbing and treasure stealing!

“Do you know the little piglet?” Yang Yan asked.

Upon hearing the words little piglet, the pangolin raised its head sharply, eyes brightening.

“Are you talking about the pink little pig?” the pangolin asked excitedly.

“Yes, it should be considered my servant, calling me master!” Yang Yan replied.

“Really?” the pangolin still held some doubt.

Because Yang Yan was currently emanating Demonic Qi, his eyes glowing like a Great Demon King reborn.

Making it terrified, fearful, unable to believe.

Yang Yan produced an arrow for the pangolin to see.

The pangolin immediately burst into tears.

“You do know the little piglet!

The little piglet is my brother, you’re its master, then you are my master too from now on.

Oh, I was scared to death, turns out you are an acquaintance!

I thought I had encountered a Demon King and was doomed!”

As it spoke, a drop of fresh blood shot out, landing on Yang Yan.

Yang Yan raised an eyebrow.

Did it just acknowledge a master?

“Alright then, since I’m your master, give the treasures back to me when we leave.”

“Sure, no problem,” the pangolin agreed readily.

Then Yang Yan grabbed the underground Demon Dragon Vein and stored it in the Secret Realm within his arm.

The Demonic Qi and Evil Qi within were not removed.

He would let the Evil God Demon Seed slowly absorb and cultivate from them, giving it plenty of material for training.

With the Demon Dragon Vein inside him, the Evil God Demon Seed stopped its cultivation through his body, and Yang Yan returned to normal.

With the pangolin, he emerged from underground instantly.

Outside, the scene was one of desolation, countless pits and ruins.

“Senior Brother, we’ve piled up all the bodies of the Hun Demon Sect disciples!” Yun He was the first to notice his appearance and came over to report.
