Chapter 402: The Great Black Heaven Demon Saint

Qin Ming withdrew his gaze from the window.

Immediately, he looked towards the sound, and his gaze fell upon the person in front of him.

It would have been better not to look, but at first glance, Qin Ming’s pupils suddenly constricted.

A wave of emotions surged in his heart, and he was secretly astonished.

‘Fourth Rank Transforming Great Demon’!

Although the Black Feathered Demon Cultivator disguised their aura to be extremely realistic and clever, just like an ordinary Early Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

If it were someone else, it would have been fine. Even the highest-cultivation Golden Core Elder in the Five Elements Mountain Marketplace might not have detected any anomaly.

However, Qin Ming possessed a Divine Sense comparable to that of the Early Nascent Soul Stage, and also possessed Law-Breaking Double Pupils.

A few days ago, when he cultivated the 《Heavenly Demon Refining Form Strategy》 to the Great Completion level of the Golden Core Chapter, he even absorbed the Divine Ability of the Crimson-Eyed Heavenly Qilin, enhancing his pupil technique Divine Ability by more than a factor of two.

No matter how clever the disguise, it was just a pretense in front of him.

Therefore, Qin Ming saw through the other party’s disguise with just a glance.

In Qin Ming’s eyes, the other party’s true face was revealed:

The black-feathered Demon Cultivator man standing opposite had a pair of jade green, unusually small pupils, and a keratinous nose.

They should be a kind of avian demon cultivator.

They were a genuine Fourth Rank Early Stage Demon Saint!

However, the feeling that this Black Feathered Demon Cultivator gave him, their aura was a little weaker than Yue Lingyan’s.

‘Fourth Rank Transforming Great Demon. Could this person be the Great Black Heaven Demon Saint of the Wind-Splitting Eagle Clan?’

‘How did they even come to the Five Elements Mountain Marketplace?’

‘I heard Yue Lingyan mention that this person was ambitious and very interested in the Qingyuan Sect Secret Realm.’

‘Could it be a conspiracy?’

Qin Ming’s mind raced, and combining with some of the other party’s features, he had probably guessed the origin of the Black Feathered Demon Cultivator.

The Black Feathered Demon Cultivator probably didn’t expect it.

They casually entered a restaurant, but in just a moment, someone had seen through their identity.

If it were spoken of, they would probably be laughed at by their clan.

Although Qin Ming saw through the other party’s origin, on the surface, their expression was normal and calm.

They responded faintly to the Black Feathered Demon Cultivator:

“There’s no one here, Fellow Daoist, please do as you wish.”

“Haha! Thank you, Fellow Daoist.”

The Black Feathered Demon Cultivator’s mouth curved into a smile, and they directly sat down opposite Qin Ming in a very casual manner.

Then, they did not order any wine and dishes, and they shamelessly asked Qin Ming:

“Fellow Daoist, do you mind if I have a cup of wine?”

The Black Feathered Demon Cultivator looked at Qin Ming with a smile.

Qin Ming immediately nodded, and poured a cup of Spirit Wine for them.

‘This demon didn’t hesitate to risk coming to the Five Elements Mountain Marketplace, could it be that they also came for the Qingyuan Sect Secret Realm?’

‘Indeed, in the face of a great opportunity, few people can remain calm, and even a Fourth-Rank Demon Saint cannot avoid it.’

‘Of course, except for me.’

The Black Feathered Demon Cultivator took the Spirit Wine, and without saying anything, they tasted it by themselves.

The two people drank and drank, and they didn’t have much communication.

Half an hour passed, and the two pots of wine were already drunk.

“Hmm, this wine is ultimately lacking, it doesn’t taste good.”

“Thank you, Fellow Daoist, for the wine.”

“I wonder what is your name, Fellow Daoist? If there is an opportunity in the future, I will invite Fellow Daoist to have a meal of Spirit Wine that I brewed myself.”

The Black Feathered Demon Cultivator said with a smile, even though they had just drunk a whole pot of Green Waves wine, they didn’t seem drunk at all.

You have to know that this Green Waves wine is a Second Grade Spirit Wine from the Yufeng Tower. Not to mention Early Foundation Establishment, even Foundation Establishment Late Stage people would still get drunk if they drank too much.

Qin Ming faintly replied, “My surname is Lu, we are strangers, it’s just a light wine, Fellow Daoist doesn’t need to be polite.”

The Black Feathered Demon Cultivator, upon hearing this, seemed to have some interest in Qin Ming, and their small pupils constricted, and they kept sizing him up.

But they didn’t see any anomaly.

Immediately they smiled faintly, “Daoist Lu is a wonderful person, it seems you also like to be different?”

“I haven’t had such a straightforward Fellow Daoist to interact with for a long time, it’s really rare!”

Qin Ming didn’t directly answer the other party’s question, and instead asked, “What is your name, Fellow Daoist? You don’t seem to be a local?”

Hearing Qin Ming’s question, the Black Feathered Demon Cultivator also paused, and then they said with a smile:

“That’s right, I am Mo Yu, I have been in the mountains, secluded in Secluded Cultivation for many years.”

“This time I came out just to see the world, and to experience it.”

“I see.” Qin Ming nodded, then remained silent.

With his current strength, even if he faced a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator, or a Fourth Rank Early Stage Demon Saint, he was no longer afraid.

Therefore, he didn’t show any fear.

At first.

Qin Ming thought that the other party was coming for him, but after a long time, the other party just happened to meet him.

Although he didn’t understand exactly what the Black Feathered Demon Cultivator wanted to do, he had already guessed that it was ninety percent for the Qingyuan Sect Secret Realm.

Qin Ming didn’t want to get involved with them, and create extra trouble.

Feeling that the time was almost up, he got up and bid farewell to them: “Daoist Friend Mo, you continue drinking, I have something to do, I will leave first.”

“I have already paid for the wine.”

“Then thank you, Daoist Friend Lu, for treating Mo to the wine, I will not see you off.” The Black Feathered Demon Cultivator had no intention of getting up.

Qin Ming didn’t bother with them, and went directly downstairs.

After they left, the Black Feathered Demon Cultivator listened to the lively shouts, and a hint of playfulness appeared in their narrow eyes:

“After a while, the prosperity here will also end.”

“By then, you can harvest a batch of materials.”

“It’s still good to drink wine brewed with Cultivator’s Golden Core.”

…

Night fell, and the bright moon hung high.

Qin Ming did not return to the Mirror Snow Pavilion, but frowned, and went directly to Hua Tianxiong’s courtyard.

‘A Fourth Rank Transforming Great Demon coming here is not a good sign, it seems I have to prepare to slip away in advance.’

‘I heard Yue Lingyan say before that the Great Black Heaven Demon Saint of the Wind-Splitting Eagle Clan is extremely combative, and they want to kill the Human Race quickly.’

If Qin Ming hadn’t known beforehand, they would have been deceived by the Black Feathered Demon Cultivator’s gentle temperament.

‘These old monsters are, as expected, one more sinister and cunning than the other.’

‘Cannot easily trust.’

Hua Tianxiong saw Qin Ming arrive, and quickly welcomed him into the hall, and brewed a pot of the best Spirit Tea.

“Master, you’re here.”

“Mhm.”

After Qin Ming sat down, he began to learn about the situation.

The information he obtained from them was not much different from what Han Yuan had said.

Qin Ming pondered for a moment, and felt that the Black Feathered Demon Cultivator’s actions were too strange, and if left unaddressed.

It might pose a threat and disaster to the Human Race, especially if this kind of demon cultivator were to start a massacre here, it would also affect his Spirit Field, as well as the Mirror Snow Pavilion.

So he decided to report them to the Defenders of the Dao Alliance through Hua Tianxiong, and by then there would be a Nascent Soul True Monarch to deal with it.

He didn’t need to take any risks himself.

Immediately Qin Ming put down the teacup in his hand, and said to Hua Tianxiong with a serious expression:

“Hua Tianxiong, there is something I want you to do.”

“I discovered a transforming Great Demon of the Demon Race infiltrating the marketplace, this matter is extremely important, and it is related to the life and death of the marketplace.”

“Ah?! Transforming Demon Saint?” Hua Tianxiong was frightened, and tea sprayed out, and the whole person was stunned on the spot.

“This, this… Master, what should I do?”

Immediately they thought of something, “Could it be that this great demon is also coming for that Secret Realm of the Qingyuan Sect?”

“It’s probably like that, you can secretly reveal this matter to the Li Fire Palace, this matter is not trivial, you don’t need to worry about anything else.” Qin Ming said faintly.

“You should also prepare to evacuate the Five Elements Mountain Marketplace, you can’t stay here anymore.”

“Yes, Respectfully Obey Master’s Order!”

…

Several days later, the number of Defenders of the Dao Alliance Cultivators in the Five Elements Mountain Marketplace increased sharply, looking as if they were facing a great enemy.

The Free Cultivators who went back and forth between the marketplace, didn’t know what had happened?

Qin Ming could feel that even two powerful auras had secretly descended into the marketplace.

But they didn’t show up.

In all likelihood, it was the Defenders of the Dao Alliance, who sent a Nascent Soul True Monarch to deal with the Transforming Demon Saint.

But after several days passed, nothing happened, and the marketplace returned to peace.

Qin Ming sat in the Mirror Snow Pavilion, and secretly pondered.

“That shouldn’t be the case? Could it be that the demon cultivator escaped?”

And on the other side, in the Beast Howl Mountains.

The Black Feathered Demon Cultivator man turned into a black light and flew extremely fast, and looked back from time to time.

“Damn it, where did the weakness reveal itself?”

“How did my identity be exposed? Those two old fellows from the Human Race must have gotten the news.”

“But the purpose of this journey has also been achieved, it’s not a big deal.”

“Wait until later and play with these two old things.”

The Black Feathered Demon Cultivator’s jade green, small pupils swirled, and they sped up and instantly disappeared into the sky.

…

In the Mirror Snow Pavilion of the Five Elements Mountain Marketplace.

Old Jia was proud, and was holding an account book as they reported to Qin Ming.

“Hehehe, Shopkeeper Lu is really a prophet!”

“This Tianluo Powder has been sold out in just half a month, and the price has increased by more than several times.”

“Here are all the accounts, please take a look.”

Qin Ming took the account book and casually flipped through it, and nodded gently.

Then, Old Jia gave all the Spirit Stones to Qin Ming to handle.

“By the way, Shopkeeper Lu, in addition to this, I have been looking for a buyer, to take over the two hundred acres of Spirit Fields in Five Elements Mountain.”

“But after negotiating with several powers, they also seemed to have seen the turmoil of the current situation in the Five Elements Mountain Marketplace, and were afraid of affecting the Spirit Fields, so the price offered was not too high.”

“If you are in a hurry to sell, you can only transfer it at a low price.”

Qin Ming pondered slightly, and then shook his head.

“Don’t worry, someone will offer a high price.”

“Besides, the Jade Emperor Spirit Rice cultivated by Li Lan is not yet mature, it will probably take a while, so let’s wait.”

“I will inform you by then.”

“This matter is over, the shops in the Five Elements Mountain Marketplace can almost be closed.”

“You are ready to evacuate with your people at any time.”

“Yes, Shopkeeper Lu.”

Old Jia is now very obedient to Qin Ming’s words, and is completely devoted.

After all, ‘Shopkeeper Lu’ can even get involved with a Nascent Soul True Monarch, naturally can master some extremely reliable information from the upper echelons in advance.

They only need to follow suit.

“By the way, after being busy for a while, the Spirit Stones in here are a reward for you.” Qin Ming threw a bag of Spirit Stones to Old Jia, “You can deal with those Spirit Farmers according to the situation.”

Old Jia took the reward, and said excitedly: “Thank you, Shopkeeper Lu!”

Then they went to Handle Affairs.

After Old Jia left, Qin Ming also left the Five Elements Mountain Marketplace.

But on his way back to the Spirit Field, he received an urgent message from Hua Tianxiong through the Black Talisman.

“Master, something bad is happening!”

“I just heard from Elder Qian that the Divine Dao Mountain and the Yin Demon Sect have recently prepared to hold a ritual to make the Seven Wonderful Treasure Tree bloom in advance.”

“After the Li Fire Palace received the intelligence, they have been on alert, and it is estimated that they will also join in the fun this time, to lock down the location of the Secret Realm.”

“After all, the mountain gate secret realm of the first Great Sect of the Ancient Times Human Realm, the temptation is too great.”

“If it is known by the Free Cultivators outside, it will probably be more chaotic.”

After Qin Ming finished listening, he also frowned.

He also didn’t expect that the Yin Demon Sect’s selected day would come so quickly.

“Hua Tianxiong, you did a great job, continue to investigate and report.”

“Thank you, Master, for the praise!” Hua Tianxiong said with delight, and then they thought of something, “By the way, Master, the last few Spirit Materials you asked me to collect, I have some clues, but the locations of these Spirit Materials are relatively scattered.”

“I will have my subordinates collect them for you as soon as possible.”

“Very well, go and do your work.” Qin Ming replied.

…

After hearing Hua Tianxiong’s report.

Qin Ming was a little worried, and he immediately summoned the Heaven Devouring Rat.

The Heaven Devouring Rat scrambled to Qin Ming’s shoulder, and said with a smile: “Master, what is it that you are looking for me?”

“My strength has increased greatly now, and I have endless strength, and I can fight for you in this life.”

“Just put it this way, the Green-Faced Poison Dragon that rode on my head back then, now I can easily handle it, just like dealing with a loach, Eh Heh Heh!”

“Alright, the Green-Faced Poison Dragon. That’s the old history from so many years ago, its Beast Core was taken by me to brew wine.”

“You still miss it, and you are so vindictive?” Qin Ming turned their head to the Heaven Devouring Rat and said.

“Let’s not talk about this.”

“I received intelligence that there may be a Change below the Spirit Vein of the Five Elements Mountain, and the Demon Cultivators are probably going to do some ritual again.”

“You go and keep an eye on it for me, see what tricks they are playing, and inform me when the ritual begins.”

“The matter of the Qingyuan Sect Secret Realm has already been exposed, the situation below may be mixed, and even Nascent Soul Cultivators may be watching, you should pay attention to yourself.”

Qin Ming ordered.

The Heaven Devouring Rat patted their chest and said: “Master, you can rest assured, since I advanced to Third Rank Great Completion, not only has my strength greatly increased, but my Divine Ability has also made great progress and breakthroughs.”

“Now, when I unleash the Void Walking Escape Technique, even a Mid-Stage Nascent Soul Cultivator can’t find me.”

“It’s just a small matter.”

“That’s the best, you go.”

“Hehe! Master, just wait for my news.”

Immediately, the Heaven Devouring Rat jumped off Qin Ming’s shoulder, and turned into a streak of black light in the air and disappeared.

After Qin Ming returned to the Spirit Field, they resumed normal Cultivation.

Only three days later.

The Heaven Devouring Rat ran back and reported the situation to Qin Ming:

“Master, those people are going to hold their Sacrificial Spirit ritual, the time is today, at the hour of Hai.”

“Oh? So fast, you take me to see.” Qin Ming said.

Immediately, one person and one rat, followed the underground passage dug by the Heaven Devouring Rat, and arrived near the entrance of the Secret Realm.

They saw that in the dim Underground World, a huge Altar had already been built.
