The light from the crystal ball checking the spirit root quickly dissipated.

The Observatory Master’s gaze towards Lu Wenwu had already changed.

It seemed he had misunderstood this senior.

A legendary innate earth spirit root combined with a five elements celestial spirit root that rivals the five attributes!

Who would believe it if he became a demon cultivator?

Just as the Observatory Master was about to relax, changes reappeared on the crystal ball’s surface.

A flame pattern slowly emerged, with a prominent number "ten" at the center.

The Instructor Elder and the Observatory Master froze together on the spot, suddenly at a loss.

The flame pattern represents the Qi Refining Stage.

The number ten represents the tenth layer.

Was this "senior" in front of them just at Qi Refining Great Perfection?

Huh?

Ah!!!

He’s a fraud, but he’s only at Qi Refining Great Perfection!

Our Wood and Earth Temple is going to prosper!

The Observatory Master’s eyes instantly switched from disbelief to ecstatic, filled with great expectations for the future as he looked at Lu Wenwu.

With such talent and cultivation, he came to my small sect to deceive?

Even if he says he’s my father, I can endure it!

Happiness came too suddenly, and the Observatory Master couldn’t contain himself, his mouth almost crooked with laughter.

However...

Before the Observatory Master could fully enjoy his happiness, the bright flame turned blood red in an instant.

His expression suddenly collapsed, his eyes trembling violently.

Blood red means this person is filled with intense Blood Evil Qi, already integrated with his body and soul, undoubtedly a demon cultivator.

After burning for two seconds, the flame, which had finally turned black, disappeared without a trace.

A jade talisman with maximum authority appeared at the exit below.

The previously ecstatic Observatory Master was stunned once again.

He didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

The rapid rise and fall were too quick, and the ups and downs were too intense...

The good news: a Golden Core senior arrived at the sect!

The bad news: the Golden Core senior is a demon cultivator.

The good news: the Golden Core senior is in disguise!

The bad news: he’s here for the sect’s inheritance.

The good news: the Golden Core senior is a top talent seen once in a millennium, with his actual strength only at Qi Refining Great Perfection!

The bad news: really is a demon cultivator!!!

The Observatory Master was so mad, he wanted to curse.

He looked at Lu Wenwu, who was playing with the authority jade talisman and had brought his dog into the Library Pavilion to browse the jade slips, and his mind was in turmoil, not knowing what to do.

The other party seemed to be an inexperienced loose cultivator, completely unaware his identity had been exposed.

The sect lost a genius disciple.

But...

If this genius demon cultivator could be captured and handed over to the Immortal Dao Alliance, it would be a great merit.

Even sharing with the Mad Blade Temple would still be rewarding.

The rewards and support that come will help the sect advance, and he will also have a chance to break through to late-stage Foundation Establishment, looking forward to the legendary Golden Core!

Should he just...

Lu Wenwu did not know what the Observatory Master and the Instructor Elder outside were thinking.

He was happily reading the history books and overviews of this world.

This continent is roughly divided into three areas.

The Immortal Dao Alliance, consisting of several top immortal sects, governs the continent’s east, while the Demon Alliance, consisting of several top demon sects, oversees the west.

In addition, a large number of scattered demon races are spread across the continent, present everywhere.

Some form human-restricted zones or demon race gathering places.

Others are like nails driven deep within human territories, engaging in fierce battles with humans.

Overall, the Immortal Dao Alliance holds the advantage, the other two sides evenly matched.

However, this is not an actual control area.

There aren’t enough cultivators to establish a modern nation’s tight blockade.

An alliance is merely an alliance, not a united country.

Thus, appearing in enemy territory to hunt, hide, treasure hunt, and train is commonplace.

As long as the disguise is sufficient, there’s no problem.

However, while reading with great interest, Lu Wenwu soon couldn’t laugh anymore.

Experience told Lu Wenwu that exploring the reason for a sect’s annihilation is usually something he could handle in a way he was good at.

For example, directly killing the source that could annihilate the Cyan Profound Sword Sect would yield rich rewards and increase his attribute points.

So, his original plan was to check the Cyan Profound Sword Sect’s original location, then directly head there and clean around to greatly enhance his attributes.

This was his usual strategy for exploring.

However...

His ideals were grand, but reality was harsh.

Just as Lu Wenwu read the history part, reality gave him a big slap, saying: What the hell are you dreaming about?

The Cyan Profound Sword Sect was utterly destroyed... No inheritance left, no ruins for him to explore.

This was a historical story from thousands of years ago.

According to the records, the Cyan Profound Sword Sect ventured into a Little World as an entire sect, and then that was the end of it.

None returned.

Now, this serves as a historical lesson to warn future cultivators against such reckless behavior.

Lu Wenwu continued reading with patience,

The records say the Little World’s entrance coordinates are unknown, and the Cyan Profound Sword Sect’s inheritance on this continent has completely ceased.

Over thousands of years, any clues left have vanished, even the sect’s former site is gone.

What little heritage remained after the Cyan Profound Sword Sect’s collapse had long been divided among countless treasure-seeking cultivators, leaving nothing behind.
