Chapter 1237 - The Newest Member of the Sect

Chapter 1237: The Newest Member of the Sect
An Lin rode on Da Bai’s back and soon returned to the sect.
Immediately after returning to the sect, he held a meeting for all of the sect’s core members.

Ahem, let me introduce to you all. This is Sun Yuluo. He is the newest recruit of our Four Nine Immortal Sect, and I plan to let him join the Sword Pavilion. Please give him a warm round of applause!

Clap clap clap…
Raucous applause erupted as An Lin’s words fell.
Excitement flashed through Liu Qianhuan’s eyes.
My God, Brother Sun Yuluo, I didn’t expect to see you here!

Sun Yuluo was also elated.
Sister Liu Qianhuan, we’re going to be a part of the same sect from now on. Fate sure works in some funny ways.

Liu Qianhuan spoke with a solemn expression,
Call me Pavilion Lord!

Sun Yuluo:
… P… Pavilion Lord…

Bai Ling looked on with a speechless expression.
An Lin always brings someone back after every trip. I don’t know what to make of this habit…

Tang Ximen recoiled slightly with a fearful expression.
I don’t really care about that. I’m more concerned about what that thing on Sun Yuluo’s back is…

Behind Sun Yuluo, a frosty, dark blue light emanated, significantly lowering the temperature within the room.
A little boy had his hands on Sun Yuluo’s shoulders and peeked around his head before revealing a gruesome smile to everyone…
Everyone drew a sharp intake of breath upon seeing this.
Ye Ling ducked under her chair and trembled uncontrollably in fear.

Oh, I forgot to make an introduction. That little boy is the sword spirit of Sun Yuluo’s Blue Dream Sword,
An Lin introduced.
Everyone was astonished.
What kind of sword spirit was this?
Was their sect leader lying to them?!
Just as they were all dazed with shock, the little boy’s tongue suddenly elongated, and he whipped it onto Sun Yuluo’s face…

Ah…!

Mommy! Save me!

Sun Yuluo screamed, and he almost blacked out again.
Everyone:
…

How had he managed to subdue this sword spirit?
It didn’t make sense!
After that, An Lin recounted why he decided to accept Sun Yuluo and the growing tensions between them and the Heavenly Sword Sect.
Liu Qianhuan stroked her chin as she analyzed,
My father pays a lot of attention to nurturing Sword Immortal prodigies, and he holds sword spirits in even higher regard. Nurturing more sword spirits has always been a long-term goal that he has been working toward…

In his heart, an ancient sword that has successfully nurtured a spirit is even more important and valuable than a Return to Void Final Stage mighty figure who has attained the power of the divine dao!

Hence… I don’t think he’s going to let this slide so easily.

Everyone’s expression became a little grave upon hearing this.
Sun Yuluo was both concerned and guilt-ridden as he clenched his fists.
An Lin’s expression was quite nonchalant.
That’s alright, Liu Mingxuan isn’t anyone to be scared of. In our sect, we have the Ninety-Nine-Fold Extreme Heavenly Spell Formation, and we’re going to have a functioning Starfire Battleship soon. That’ll be more than enough to fight off a Dao Integration Stage super mighty figure, so what do we have to be scared of?

A smile appeared on Bai Ling’s face upon hearing this.
The Starfire Battleship should be fully repaired within half a year.

Everyone’s expression eased upon hearing this.
The meeting came to a conclusion.
An Lin began packing for another trip.
He was still missing three Dark Beads, which required Return to Void Initial Stage cultivation base with Huang Fuwen as a reference in order to recover them. All of them were in the same location—The Abyss of Evil!

What a familiar place…
A reminiscent expression appeared on An Lin’s face.
Thinking back, he had once slain sinister devils there.
In the southeastern region of the Kingdom of the Nine States.
On the border of the Heavenly River State.
A massive, inky-black rift stretched as far as the eyes could see, as if it were an insurmountable rift separating the human territory from the Ant Tribe territory.
An Lin descended from the sky into the massive abyss on dogback.

One of the Dark Beads is located in the Dark Soul Lake within the Abyss of Evil, whereas another one is located within the body of an extremely powerful sinister devil. Both of them are located at an extremely deep part of the Abyss of Evil.
An Lin looked at the map to get a gauge on how difficult it would be to recover those Dark Beads.
The first time he had entered the Abyss of Evil, he had only traveled to the central region.
There were already Spirit Nurturing Stage and Soul Formation Stage powerful beings in vast abundance there…
The sinister devils had a different power scale from everyone else. However, sinister devils that were comparable to Soul Formation Stage cultivators were already capable of speech and possessed intelligence. An example of this was the BOSS sinister devil An Lin had encountered last time.
As for the higher-level sinister devils, he had yet to encounter one.

It’s getting darker and darker.
Da Bai wagged his snowy-white tail as he descended.
We should’ve taken Big Brother Chou along with us. His searchlight eyes would be really useful here, woof!


Xiao Chou is still enjoying his newlywed lifestyle, so we should let him bask in happiness for now,
An Lin spoke with a hint of envy on his face.
Little Xie seemed to like the dark environment here, and she soon jumped out of An Lin’s Evil-Slaying Sword to sit on Da Bai’s back. She gripped onto An Lin’s sleeve with her little hands and looked around at her surroundings with an intrigued expression.
The mutant beasts within the Abyss of Evil would occasionally attack Da Bai.
However, all of them were instantly destroyed by silver blades of wind before they could even reach the area within a thousand feet from Da Bai.

Haha, I’m invincible here! All creatures here must bow to me!
Da Bai was very excited. He was much more powerful than when he had come here last time!
Da Bai had been petrified and was forced to escape in extreme panic many times during his last trip to the Abyss of Evil. But now, all of these mutant beasts stood no chance against him, and he was feeling extremely good about himself.
Soon, they had reached a depth of several kilometers, upon which they finally landed on some flat ground.

After landing on flat ground, find a massive rift and continue downward in order to reach the central region of the Abyss of Evil,
An Lin spoke.
A blast of air suddenly erupted from Da Bai’s mouth as An Lin spoke, which reduced a massive centipede before them into mincemeat.
Traveling through this part of the Abyss of Evil was like a walk in the park for them.
No living being could defend themselves from even one of Da Bai’s attacks.
Four hours later, they finally discovered that massive rift!

This is a passageway to the central region of the Abyss of Evil. Let’s go.

A hint of anticipation appeared on An Lin’s face.
He continued downward on dogback. The light of the sun had long since completely disappeared, leaving this place in completely and pure darkness.
Meanwhile, at the deepest part of the Abyss of Evil.
An inky-black, dream-like figure suddenly opened its eyes, which were as bright as stars.

Another powerful living being is exploring my abyss. Even though his cultivation base is quite low, the energy within his body is extremely powerful. How interesting…

Huh? The blood within my body is surging!

Could he be… the bearer of the Dark Divine Dao?

The figure suddenly became excited.
