Chapter 23: The Hidden Demon Cultivator?
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
After Qi Ming entered the blue-black vortex, his vision changed. He first flew through a blue-black teleportation passageway.
A servant disciple flew past him.
At this moment, Qi Ming noticed a servant disciple with black hair and blue eyes. He did not know which mountain the other party was from, but when the other party flew past him, Qi Ming sensed a faint demonic qi on the other party’s body.
Of course, The reason why Qi Ming could notice it was because the other party was too excited at this moment. His eyes were shining, so he could not restrain his aura well.
“Demon cultivator?”
Qi Ming was stunned. “There are demon cultivators hidden in the Heaven Enlightenment Sect?”
The next moment, a white light appeared in front of him, blocking Qi Ming’s vision.
When he came to his senses, Qi Ming had already entered the Heavenly Chief Mystic Realm. He looked around. The place he was currently at was an endless plain.
The Assessment Token in his hand displayed a countdown of twelve hours.
According to the rules of the outer sect examination, before the countdown ended, all the servant disciples had to activate the ‘Teleportation Seal’ on the Assessment Token before they could leave the Heavenly Chief Mystic Realm. Otherwise, they would be trapped in the mystic realm and unable to escape.
Therefore…
The Assessment Token was very important. Not only could it record points, but it was also the key to leaving the Heavenly Chief Mystic Realm in the end. If it was lost or snatched, it would be very difficult to leave. historical
“I need to confirm my current location.”
Qi Ming sat cross-legged. He was not in a hurry. He took out a map and looked at it. This was the map of the Heaven Quake Mystic Realm. Every servant disciple who participated in the Outer Sect Assessment would obtain it. It was personally given to them by the servant elders of the various peaks.
On the map, it indicated that there were a total of four regions in the Heavenly Chief Mystic Realm.
The Heavenly Chief Plains, Poison Swamp, Sunset Valley, and the Sword Edge Mountain Range.
The place where Qi Ming was located was the Heavenly Chief Plains. If he headed east of the Heavenly Chief Plains, he could reach the Poison Swamp. If he headed west, he could head to the Sunset Valley. Finally, the Sword Edge Mountain Range was located at the north of the Heavenly Chief Plains.
“Now, I can only take things one step at a time.”

After confirming a location, Qi Ming got up and walked towards the north. He planned to go to the Sword Edge Mountain Range to take a look after he finished walking around the Heavenly Chief Plains.
Half an hour later, Qi Ming found the first spiritual herb. It was a low-grade Qi Refinement realm spiritual herb, ‘Luminous Grass’. It could be used to refine medicine and refine the ‘Healing Powder’. It was the lowest-grade spiritual herb and could not even form a pill.
No matter what, it was better than nothing.
“That’s one point.” Qi Ming said.
Another hour passed.
Qi Ming had only found three low-grade Qi Refinement realm spiritual herbs. Up until now, he had only obtained three points. If this continued, it was obviously impossible for him to obtain a good result. He might not even be able to enter the top ten, much less obtain the first place reward.
“Finding spiritual herbs is not my area of expertise.”
Qi Ming decisively gave up. An idea popped up in his mind. “I think it’s better to directly snatch the spiritual herbs from the other servant disciples.”
However, from the moment they entered the Heavenly Chief Mystic Realm until now, the 120 servant disciples had been separated in the entire mystic realm. It was not easy to encounter them.
Another half an hour later, at the border of the Heavenly Chief Plains and the Sword Edge Mountain Range, in the hilly area.
“That is…”
Qi Ming suddenly smelled a fragrance and also sensed a place where spiritual qi gathered in front. This was clearly a spiritual herb, and its grade was not low.
“Is this my good luck?”
Qi Ming’s eyes lit up, and he immediately moved towards the place where the spiritual qi gathered.
Half a minute later, indeed, there was a fire-red spiritual herb that looked like a fire python on the hill in front of him. It was the high-grade Qi Refinement realm spiritual herb, Fire Python Spirit Flower. This Fire Python Spirit Flower was worth 4 points, which was equivalent to nearly two hours of work by Qi Ming.
“Moreover, there are no demon beasts guarding it.”
Qi Ming checked his surroundings, “Is it away or something?”
While thinking, Qi Ming walked towards the Fire Python Spirit Flower.
However, just as Qi Ming was about ten meters away from the Fire Python Spirit Flower, a change suddenly happened. There were thin threads that had interwoven into an inescapable net from all directions. They quickly enveloped Qi Ming like lightning.
There was an ambush!
“You’re courting death!”
Qi Ming’s gaze was cold. With a wave of his right hand, the Chen Clan’s Demon Slaying Sword landed in his hand. He used the Wind Manipulation Sword Art, and sword lights slashed towards his surroundings.
Crack! Crack!
The net-like threads were easily shattered.
The ambush failed.
However, it was not over yet.
Four figures rushed out from the shadows and quickly surrounded Qi Ming, causing him to be surrounded.
“What a sharp sword technique.”
Standing in front of Qi Ming was a servant disciple with a square face. There was a hideous scar like a centipede on the left side of his face, and it seemed to be rather ferocious, “Which peak are you from?”
“Your strength is not bad.”
“Hehe.”
“…”
The other three servant disciples had cold gazes.
“The high-grade Qi Refinement realm spiritual herb was used as bait. You specially guarded the border between the Heavenly Chief Plains and the Sword Edge Mountain Range. The four of you even joined forces. Your plan was not bad.”
Qi Ming said indifferently, “Which peak are you guys from?”
“Nine Extreme Peak’s Jiang Shicheng.” The square-faced servant disciple replied.
Qi Ming pondered for a moment before saying, “Oh, so are you going to hand over all the spiritual herbs in your hands, or do you want me to beat you until you hand them over?”
“How arrogant.”
Jiang Shicheng laughed. “Not only is your sword technique impressive, but it’s also because the sword in your hand is a top-grade Qi Refinement realm talisman treasure.”
“How laughable.”
“You’re alone, but there are four of us. How much of a chance do you think you can win against four people alone? Hand over the sword in your hand and give me the spiritual herb on you. We can consider letting you off.”
“Otherwise…”
“Not only do you have to hand over the spiritual herb and the sword, but you also have to give us the Assessment Token. At that time, you won’t even be able to leave this Heavenly Chief Mystic Realm.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Senior Brother, don’t waste your breath on him. Just attack.”
“That’s right.”
“Let’s do it.”
The other three servant disciples said with fierce expressions.
“Have you thought it through?” Jiang Shicheng shouted loudly in an attempt to intimidate Qi Ming.
“Nine Spirit Illusion Steps.”
Swish!
Qi Ming took a step forward and disappeared from the spot, leaving behind an afterimage. He was so fast that Jiang Shicheng and the others could not react in time.
“You…” Jiang Shicheng wanted to dodge, but in the next moment, he felt cold air coming from his neck. His entire body stiffened, and he did not dare to move.
At this moment, Qi Ming was already standing behind Jiang Shicheng. He held the Chen Clan’s Demon Slaying Sword and placed it on his neck.
All he needed was a gentle slash.
He could chop off Jiang Shicheng’s head and kick it like a ball.
“Senior… Senior Brother… Spare… Spare me…”
Jiang Shicheng was so frightened that his face was pale. His legs were trembling, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He did not expect to face such a powerhouse, “I… I’ll give all the spiritual herbs to Senior Brother now and give everything I have to you.”
Such a movement technique, such speed, such spirit energy intensity…
He simply did not dare to imagine that he was a servant disciple.
Even some outer sect disciples who had just entered the sect could not compare to him!
This was too powerful.
Which peak was this senior brother from? Why was there no news at all? He had clearly remembered the appearance of all the big shots that he could not provoke!
“This… this…”
The other three servant disciples were completely stunned as well. Their arrogant expressions from before had completely vanished, and only terror and shock were left in their eyes.
One had to know, in the Heavenly Chief Mystic Realm, even if Qi Ming killed all of them, no one would pursue the matter. There was no evidence to prove anything. If they died, it would be for nothing.
Qi Ming stretched out his left hand and gestured at them, “If you don’t want to die, hand everything over.”
