167: I am a righteous person, but the evil thieves are so treacherous!

Yin Nether Sect, just by looking at its name, one can understand the Legacy of this sect.

"Poisonous"

"Underworld"

Most of its techniques are related to the Soul, collecting living Souls to Cultivate techniques, and Demon Transformation of Yao Beasts to Body Refining, making them incredibly bizarre.

This action naturally caused countless natural disasters and man-made calamities, until it was jointly attacked and destroyed by numerous Immortal Sects.

However, a centipede dies but never falls, and most of the Yin Nether Sect's techniques were preserved, with the inheritors of the Legacy scattering throughout the world.

The world is vast, and accommodating some small fry is not a problem.

Even some big fish are not a problem.

Among these big fish were Chasing Life Immortal Master, whom Shen Li encountered, and the Puppet Demon Immortal Master of Yanmo Mountain.

And the Grand True Person Seven Souls in front of him.

Among the Yin Nether Sect Cultivators Shen Li encountered, according to Chasing Life Immortal Master's memory, the most bizarre techniques belonged to the Bewitching Soul lineage, and the most insane belonged to the Demon Transformation lineage.

However, if one were to speak of the Physical Body that is the most durable, comparable to an Extreme Martial Warrior, and can rival the Demon Transformation lineage, then it would only be the Ice Soul lineage.

The Ice Soul lineage's techniques in the Yin Nether Sect are very special; what they primarily Cultivate are not active techniques, which are what are called active skills.

Instead, they Cultivate passive skills, which is the Physical Body.

The Ice Soul lineage originated from the Water Law, taking the unbreakable hardness of the Ice Law and the endless flow of the Water Law. In a fight, the Yin Nether Sect Cultivators of the Ice Soul lineage can gain a great advantage in terms of their Physical Body.

However, this lineage has always been lukewarm.

As for why? The reason is simple: their Physical Body is as hard as a Demon Transformation, but their combat ability is far inferior.

As long as a Martial Artist of the Demon Transformation lineage has enough perseverance, they will sooner or later be able to enter the sect by transforming their demon blood.

However, the Ice Soul lineage requires Spiritual Root Aptitude, and also needs affinity with Water and Ice Spiritual Roots to enter.

If one had such affinity, why would they be so foolish as to join the Yin Nether Sect?

Isn't that foolish?

Therefore, there are very few Cultivators in the Ice Soul lineage.

Thus, it became the first Legacy targeted by the Grand True Person Seven Souls.

He infiltrated it and stole its true essence.

If the Grand True Person Seven Souls had not preserved the Ice Soul Legacy, perhaps this Legacy would have no inheritors by now.

Hearing that the Righteous Path Cultivator in front of him wanted to Cultivate 'Ice Soul,' Feng Ping's eyes deepened slightly, and he said,

"I don't care about you. Among all the techniques, the Ice Law I master is the weakest and most trash. Do you really need this technique?"

"There are no trash techniques, only trash Cultivators."

The Grand True Person Seven Souls's mouth twitched, and he really wanted to slap the young Cultivator in front of him to death, but at this moment, he lacked the strength to do so.

Three Extreme Martial Warriors were just outside the courtyard; if he had even a single thought of Killing Intent, these Extreme Martial Warriors would instantly tear him apart.

This was certain.

He was no longer the Purple Mansion Great True Person, but merely a Divine Soul barely capable of unleashing a Half-Step Dao Foundation.

So, he simply said,

"So, if I give you the Ice Law, you can give me that Divine Soul?"

Shen Li grinned.

"Of course not."

"Are you playing with me?"

Feng Ping, who was carrying a Divine Soul of the Grand True Person Seven Souls, frowned slightly.

Shen Li, however, looked at him from a distance.

"I want you to make a Heart Demon contract."

"To teach you the Ice Law, a Heart Demon contract is naturally required."

"Not about that. I want you to kill some people during the Grand Ceremony."

"Alright, where's the list?"

The Grand True Person Seven Souls appeared very calm.

The Grand Ceremony Feng Ping and he were going to attend was also a Qi Refining Realm Grand Ceremony. They were just some Qi Refining juniors. Even if their Immortal Sects had some Legacy, what could it do?

Could it be stronger than his own Legacy as a Purple Mansion Great True Person?

Killing a few people was not a problem. Establishing a contract and being able to replenish a Divine Soul was a stroke of luck.

Shen Li smiled slightly and handed over a folded paper.

And the Grand True Person Seven Souls also took out an extremely cold jade from his embrace.

"This treasure is called Profound Yin Jade, a ninth-rank heaven and earth treasure. To Cultivate the Ice Soul Law, one needs to gradually incorporate the Profound Yin Jade and nourish the Physical Body into a Profound Yin Jade Body.

At that time, you will need to observe the quality of the Profound Yin Jade. The deeper the color of the Profound Yin Jade, the stronger the coldness and hardness of your Physical Body will become."

The two made a Heart Demon oath, and then quietly parted ways.

After leaving the City Lord's Mansion, the Grand True Person Seven Souls retreated back into the human skin scroll.

Feng Ping, however, quickly left Black Ridge City for hundreds of miles before stopping with lingering fear, cautiously asking,

"Senior, do you really intend to agree to that kid's conditions?"

The Grand True Person Seven Souls said calmly,

"A Heart Demon oath cannot be faked."

After a moment of silence, the Grand True Person Seven Souls spoke with full Killing Intent,

"Threatening me with three Extreme Martial Warrior slaves, this Immortal Seedling deserves to die! The Heart Demon oath only requires me to kill the people on this list. As long as the goal is achieved, the Karma dissipates, and then I can just kill him!"

"I have been infecting the Profound Yin Jade for several years, and there are already Soul imprints within it. How could a junior easily refine it? At that time, I will naturally use the Profound Yin Jade to invade it, perfectly seizing this natural Ice Law Immortal Seedling!"

"At that time, I will definitely be able to fully utilize the Ice Soul technique, and my Physical Body will have boundless prospects!"

"This is also a good backup plan!"

"Hmph, who does he think he is? A mere youth, yet he dares to make a deal with me? It's simply laughable!"

"Senior is indeed brilliant!"

"Stop spouting nonsense. Cultivate diligently. During the Grand Ceremony, you are not guaranteed to win! This Grand Ceremony is about whether you, a Loose Cultivator, can ascend to the ranks and become an Immortal Master."

"I will naturally not let Immortal Master down!"

"It's just... what exactly is that round moon??? Damn it, it's indeed incomplete memory due to Soul division."

"Senior, is it alright?"

"It's fine!"

And in Black Ridge City.

Shen Li looked at the Profound Yin Jade in front of him, and the moon blade between his eyebrows activated, beginning to scrape the patterns on the surface of the Profound Yin Jade.

Invisible Qi mists dissipated in the air, followed by continuous ferocious roars echoing in his ears.

"How did you find out? Damn it! How is this possible!"

"It's the Taiyin Sword Pill! It's actually the Taiyin Sword Pill!"

Pfft~~~

It was like frost and snow falling into a raging fire, instantly annihilating and slowly turning into white mist, dissipating into the air.

Shen Li, however, murmured to himself,

"Senior, the technique of Soul division is indeed terrifying, with no connection whatsoever to the main body. At crucial moments, it can be of great use!"

"It's just a pity that I Cultivate the Taiyin Law, and I can easily perceive the imprint on it."

"You Demonic Path scoundrels are truly insidious, forcing me, a Righteous Path Cultivator, to keep up with the times."

"I'm afraid of falling into your Dao."

"Alas, why bother."

Then, Shen Li took out the human skin scroll in his hand, unfolded it, and said directly,

"Senior, you don't want to watch yourself be completely devoured, do you?"

The patterns on the human skin scroll suddenly blurred, and then several lines of text appeared.

"What do you want?"

A faint smile appeared on Shen Li's lips.

There's no need to worry about morality with Demonic Path Cultivators.

If you can play both sides, you must play both sides.

Anyway, no one knows, right?

It's just that one must be careful not to be schemed against by these bastards.

However, fortunately, Shen Li's Taiyin Sword Pill was strong enough and sufficiently restrained the Yin Nether Sect, so being careful would prevent major mistakes.

Shen Li said indifferently,

"This is a matter of your life and death. I presume Senior won't be too stingy."

"I can't kill you, but Senior, there are indeed people who can kill you."
