Xu Ning stroked his chin. "That could work. We could use it as a subordinate. But I don't have enough souls to upgrade it right now. Forget it, we'll see later!"
Over the next few days, the demon Kang Xingyao was forced to learn alchemy. Besides refining his daily pills, Xu Ning spent his ti cultivating.
The following day, Xu Ning went to collect spiritual manure. All his clients expressed their willingness to form an alliance.
Xu Ning had no reason to refuse!
His last stop was Chu Huai'an's mountain.
This guy was exceptionally enthusiastic, imdiately greeting Xu Ning the mont he saw him. "Brother Shit!"
Xu Ning responded, "Brother Chu, I heard the human cultivators are planning a counterattack!"
"Really?" Chu Huai'an was instantly overjoyed, then imdiately tried to conceal his excitent.
Xu Ning grew suspicious. "Brother Chu, why do you seem so happy about this?"
Chu Huai'an quickly shook his head. "How could that be? I'm just excited at the thought of finally getting to taste human cultivators again!"
Xu Ning said nothing, collected the spiritual manure, and left.
On the way, Xu Ning asked the Dung Bucket, "Dung Bucket, is there anything wrong with Chu Huai'an's spiritual manure?"
The Dung Bucket replied, "Yes, it's mixed with human manure!"
Xu Ning nodded. "Sure enough, Chu Huai'an is a human. No wonder—no demon would willingly offer their own kind to their natural enemy."
"But I have to admit, this guy is pretty bold and capable, living right under the demons' noses!"
Humans and demons were mortal enemies. If discovered, the demons would hunt him down without rcy.
The Dung Bucket remarked, "Xu Ning, how can you say that? Aren't you doing the sa thing?"
Xu Ning retorted, "I ca here with a purpose! Besides, I have the Thousand Shadows Transformation!"
The Thousand Shadows Transformation was a technique that had evolved from a mortal-level skill to a legendary spirit-level one, its foundation surpassing even that of legendary spirit-level techniques. In terms of effectiveness, it was equivalent to a high-grade Yuan-level technique, enough to fool even a Golden Core cultivator.
This was Xu Ning's confidence in coming to the Crimson Sea Mountains.
As soon as Xu Ning returned to his hut, he received a ssage from his master, Miao Yunyi: "My good disciple, where are you now?"
Xu Ning didn't hide anything. "I'm in the Crimson Sea Mountains."
Miao Yunyi was shocked. "What? You went to the Crimson Sea Mountains?"
Xu Ning replied, "That's right! I'm now a great demon, a dung beetle among the demon race!"
Miao Yunyi: "???"
Xu Ning: "What's wrong, Master? You there?"
This content has been misappropriated from ; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere.
Miao Yunyi: "You unfilial disciple, you've completely disgraced your master! By the way, how are you managing to survive right under the demons' noses?"
Xu Ning: "It's a technique for concealing my aura. Want to learn it? How about you beco my disciple, and I'll teach you!"
Miao Yunyi was stunned, then filled with boundless rage. "You unfilial disciple, do you believe I'll expel you from the sect right now?!"
Xu Ning quickly apologized. "No! Master, I was wrong!"
Miao Yunyi then asked, "What about resources? How do you obtain them? The demon race doesn't have things like pills, do they?"
The demon race didn't refine pills because they could consu spiritual herbs directly to accelerate their cultivation. They also didn't refine weapons, as their bodies were powerful enough to rival spiritual tools. They didn't refine talismans either, since they possessed innate inherited supernatural abilities, so even more powerful than talismans. In truth, they simply didn't know how.
Xu Ning explained, "Master, do you rember when I asked you about the teleportation array blueprint?"
Miao Yunyi recalled. "I rember. What about it?"
Xu Ning chuckled. "Hehe, I found it, and I've already refined it! Whatever resources I need, I can trade with the people of the Qingdong Mountains through the teleportation array!"
Miao Yunyi was impressed. "Damn, my good disciple, doesn't that an you've monopolized a huge amount of resources from the Hongming Mountains?"
Xu Ning protested. "What do you an? I haven't!"
Miao Yunyi elaborated. "What do I an? Are you stupid, you rebellious disciple? The demon race only cares about spirit herbs and spirit stone mines. They don't want spirit iron ore, and there are poisonous array materials and refining materials scattered everywhere!"
Xu Ning's eyes widened. "Damn, how could I have forgotten that!"
In that instant, Xu Ning felt like the past three years had been wasted.
Miao Yunyi declared, "Give that technique for concealing your identity. I'll co find you!"
Xu Ning agreed. "Okay!"
Imdiately, Xu Ning transmitted the Thousand Shadows Transformation technique over.
After reading it, Miao Yunyi couldn't help but ask, "You unfilial disciple, what kind of technique is this? It's so profound!"
Xu Ning replied, "Master, this is a technique I created myself based on a mortal martial arts thod. Its power is extraordinary!"
Miao Yunyi remarked, "But it would take decades to master it!"
Xu Ning suggested, "Then Master will have to find another technique!"
Miao Yunyi said, "I'll try practicing it first."
With that, the master and disciple ended their communication.
anwhile, in the Demon Kingdom, a period of upheaval had begun, with various caves in turmoil. While other cave lords were locked in fierce battles, Qingling Mountain remained unusually calm.
The reason was simple: most of the caves had ford an alliance with Xu Ning, requiring his approval before launching any attacks. Of course, Xu Ning refused to give it. Why create trouble when everyone else was content with a peaceful life? Thus, everyone tacitly remained still, avoiding conflict.
This strange situation soon caught the attention of the Qingling Mountain cave lord, who suddenly decided to intervene.
After inquiring at several mountains, Xu Ning finally located Feiyun Mountain.
"Feiyun Mountain Lord, co see imdiately!"
The cave lord landed atop Feiyun Mountain, her voice echoing throughout the entire peak.
Xu Ning, who was refining pills in his thatched hut, was surprised to hear the voice. "The cave lord is here? Strange, what is she doing here?"
"I've heard the Qingling Mountain cave lord is nad Niu Yingng, a little cow spirit. I wonder if she'll be easy to get along with."
Oh well, no matter. He'd go see her.
Anyway, he had many trump cards now. Even if she made a move, he was confident he could kill her. Well, if Xu Ning wanted to escape, the other party's Foundation Establishnt cultivation wouldn't be able to stop him. Besides, Xu Ning had a feeling she wouldn't attack him.
Afterward, Xu Ning finished refining pills, gave the demon Kang Xingyao a few lashes to keep him focused on alchemy, and then headed to the reception area.
Upon arriving, Xu Ning saw the legendary cave lord.
She was dressed in luxurious won's clothing, but atop her head sat a large black bull's head—a very awkward sight. Of course, having a bull's head didn't an she couldn't fully transform; it simply ant she chose not to. Demons often changed their forms according to their own will, whatever looked good or felt comfortable. So forms of certain demon races were even very comfortable for them and could slightly enhance their combat power.
Upon seeing her, Tie Dan, who was standing next to Xu Ning, was stunned. Then his eyes lit up, and saliva unconsciously dripped from the corner of his mouth.
Xu Ning was speechless. What a pitiful sight—he couldn't even move when he saw a little heifer!
"You are the lord of this Feiyun Mountain..." Niu Yingng began condescendingly as she looked at Xu Ning.
But before she could finish speaking, her gaze unconsciously fell on Tie Dan beside Xu Ning, and she stopped mid-sentence.
