Chapter 433 The Heavenly Demon Palace, the Ten Thousand Buddha Temple, and the Nine Nether Demon Sec
On the west side of the third floor, there is a quiet and elegant room.
The carved beams and painted rafters exude a mysterious and eerie aura.
This is the location of the infamous Heavenly Demon Palace.
inside the room.
An old demon sat in the main seat.
Although his figure was slightly hunched, he exuded a profound and eerie aura.
Behind him, several young demons stood respectfully.
Upon closer inspection, the green-feathered toucan that had transformed into human form was indeed among them.
His gaze toward the old demon was filled with awe and affection, clearly indicating a close relationship between them. He was standing quietly to the old demon's left at the moment.
To the right of the old demon was a powerful demon resembling an ape—Li Tianxing.
His eyes were like torches, flashing with a sharp light;
The fangs were sharp and menacing, exuding a chilling, bloodthirsty aura.
Its body was as green as jade, shimmering with an eerie luster;
Her white hair, as white as snow, fluttered gently in the wind, and she exuded a fierce and domineering aura.
He is none other than the infamous demon, 'Wuzhiqi'!
Its strength is immense, and its defense is indestructible, like a rock.
Legend has it that in ancient times, this demon could shake mountains with its bare hands and break through all obstacles in the world!

Because Ao Ming was a veteran of the Heavenly Demon Palace, he held a transcendent position within the palace.
Therefore, the Heavenly Demon Palace was naturally well-informed.
They had received prior inside information that the auction would feature rare and valuable items of vital importance to them.
Therefore, the purpose of this visit is very clear.
The old demon slightly turned his head, glanced sharply at Li Tianxing, and said in a low and powerful voice:
"Tianxing, your father specifically asked me to bring you here, specifically for the leg of the celestial beast at this auction."
"Rest assured, I will definitely help you take it down and help you improve your strength to a higher level."
Upon hearing this, Li Tianxing revealed his snow-white teeth, displaying a wicked smile that exuded a hint of arrogance.
However, his words were quite polite:
"Elder, rest assured, Tianxing will always remember your kindness."
"In the future, I will definitely take good care of your descendants and make sure they don't suffer any injustice."
As he spoke, he unconsciously turned his gaze to the green-feathered toucan that had transformed into human form beside him.
The green-feathered toucan felt a warm current surge through its heart, and a feeling of being flattered and overwhelmed arose spontaneously.
He knew that although his talent was not low, it was far inferior to that of Li Tianxing.
He had experienced firsthand the terror of Li Tianxing; his power and defense were simply heaven-defying to the extreme.
With such a powerful being protecting it, the green-feathered toucan couldn't help but feel an overwhelming surge of excitement.
At that moment, he suddenly longed to see the old ox again.
He wanted Li Tianxing to teach that tall cultivator who had once captured him a lesson, in order to wash away his past shame!
He wanted everyone to know that he also had powerful backers!

On the third floor, there is a quiet and elegant room on the north side.
The location of Wanfo Temple.
The room was simply yet dignified, with the aroma of sandalwood filling the air, seemingly capable of purifying the soul.
However, what is surprising is that.
In the spacious private room, only two people sat quietly.
One of them was a bald old monk.
His face was simple and unadorned, with deep wrinkles etched by time, yet it also gave him an extraordinary and refined air.
He wore a simple monk's robe, and although he was old, he was surrounded by a layer of dazzling golden light, like a living Buddha descending to earth.
Beneath his solemn and dignified appearance, there was a subtle, almost imperceptible, terrifying quality that made people afraid to look directly at him.
Its aura was as deep as an abyss, as if it contained endless power, seemingly the presence of a powerful Emperor Realm expert!
The other was a young monk with a buzz cut.
He was unlike other monks; he did not shave off his three thousand strands of hair (symbols of afflictions).
He had delicate features and an air of scholarly refinement about him, like a well-read scholar.
However, beneath this seemingly delicate exterior lies astonishing power.
His vital energy was extremely vigorous, and a faint golden light enveloped his body, making even his short hair and eyebrows seem to glow.
Like a rising sun, it is full of vitality and energy.
Compared to the old monk's dignified and solemn demeanor, the young monk appeared much more energetic and vibrant.
Like a tender sprout breaking through the soil in spring, it is full of endless possibilities.

Inside the room, the two would occasionally exchange whispered conversations.
The old monk, Master Ziyang, had a gentle yet profound gaze. When he looked at the young monk, Lu Wuwei, his eyes were full of appreciation and expectation.
He spoke slowly, his voice deep and magnetic:
"Wuwei, you are a rare genius in our Buddhist and Taoist traditions. You are blessed with Buddhist destiny and also cultivate martial arts. Your future path will surely be brilliant."
"This trip to the outside world is both a learning experience and an opportunity for you."
You'd better make the most of this opportunity.
Upon hearing this, Lu Wuwei bowed slightly, clasped his hands together, and respectfully replied:
"I will always remember Master's teachings."
"This disciple will certainly do his utmost to live up to Master's high expectations."
His voice was clear and melodious, like a mountain spring flowing into people's hearts, making them feel extremely comfortable.
Master Ziyang nodded slightly, a hint of satisfaction flashing in his eyes.
He continued:
"All items in this auction are extraordinary."
"Especially the leg of the Nine Heavens Thunder Scale Beast, which contains endless thunder power and life essence, will be of great benefit to you."
"If you can obtain it, you will be like a tiger with wings, and your strength will reach a new level."
Lu Wuwei nodded again, his eyes shining with determination.
He knew that his master had high hopes for him, and he could not let that expectation down!

A secluded private room on the east side of the third floor is the stronghold of the Nine Nether Demonic Sect.
In the private room.
Pei Ziyan lay lazily on the soft chair.
She was wearing a light purple outfit today.
The exquisite tailoring perfectly accentuated her graceful figure, exuding a unique charm, as if she were a bewitching enchantress stepping out of a painting.
Coupled with her stunningly beautiful face, with eyebrows like distant mountains, eyes like stars, and lips that parted slightly, it seemed as if endless charm flowed through her.
She is truly endearing, captivating people at first glance and making it difficult to extricate oneself.
Behind her stood an old woman.
The old woman's eyes were deep and unfathomable, as if they held endless secrets and a sense of history.
Her body was surrounded by overwhelming demonic energy, and a chilling aura that seemed almost tangible spread outwards, unconsciously releasing a terrifying pressure.
Judging from this situation, with Pei Ziyan lying leisurely and the old woman standing respectfully, it is not difficult to see that the old woman is her protector.
In fact, it does.
Then the old woman's hoarse and deep voice slowly rang out:
“Holy Maiden, although the leg of this celestial beast is rare in the world, it is probably not of much use to us demonic cultivators.”
"We have never focused on the path of body refinement, but rather pursued the profundity of demonic arts and the vastness of demonic power. Such things are useless to us..."
......
------
Hear this.
Pei Ziyan's eyes flickered, her long eyelashes trembling slightly, as if she were pondering something.
But not long after, a slight smile appeared on her lips as she said:
"Give it away, and then take it back."
"Such a treasure, if given to the right person, will surely make them grateful to me and filled with awe."
"In that case, why worry about them not being able to be used by me?"
"?"
Upon hearing this, the old woman was stunned for a moment, her heart filled with doubt.
Who is worthy of the saintess spending such a high price to give away such a treasure?
And what does 'recover your mind' mean?
Did the Holy Maiden find a Daoist partner without her knowledge?
The moment this thought crossed the old woman's mind, alarm bells rang loudly.
You must know that within the Nine Nether Demonic Sect, a Holy Maiden is absolutely forbidden from having a Daoist partner. This is an ironclad rule, a sect regulation!
Having her protect the path was actually a way to monitor the saintess's every move.
To ensure that the saintess does not harbor any improper thoughts.
He could only grow old alone, devoting all his energy to the development and expansion of the demonic sect.
Pei Ziyan should know this very well...
But now, with her actions, knowing she's wrong yet still repeating the mistake and refusing to change, isn't she showing contempt for religious rules?!
Thinking of this, the old woman hesitated for a moment, then steeled herself and spoke:
"Holy Maiden, please have some self-respect and prioritize the rules of the faith."
"The rules are strict; one must not have any other thoughts, lest one make a grave mistake."
"By then, it will be too late to regret..."
