Chapter 40 - Lin Yan Descends into Demonic Cultivation and Massacres a City! Master and Disciple’s Relationship Severed!

[Ding! The host schemed against Lin Yan, causing him to cultivate the evil Spirit Devouring Scripture and walk down the path of depravity. Depriving the Son of Destiny, Lin Yan, of 1000 points of Providence Luck. Host has gained 1000 VPs!]

Not bad, not bad, another 2000 VPs obtained.

This arrangement was perfect.

Yang Chen revealed an ominous smile.

At this moment, Lin Xilan said tremblingly: “Husband, you, you’re mocking me!”

Yang Chen was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly said: “No, wife!”

“Don’t stop, keep going!”

“Tsk!”

…

One year later, Lin Xilan gave birth to another son.

Yang Chen named him Yang Zhuo.

However, this son only deprived Lin Yan of 2000 points of Providence Luck.

It seemed Lin Yan didn’t have sufficient Providence Luck left.

This was not surprising.

During this period, Lin Yan had been repeatedly deprived of over 10,000 points of Providence Luck by him through various means. Even a Son of Destiny could not withstand that.

In this year, Yang Chen used 1000 VPs to exchange for cultivation. Combined with the energy accumulated from previously refining and integrating the Azure Lotus Heavenly Flame, He broke through to the Nascent Soul realm in one go.

One month after his son’s birth, Yang Chen held a full moon celebration for the child.

But at the start of the banquet, a ray of light swiftly flew in and landed in the center.

As the light dispersed, it revealed a middle-aged man in white robes, travel-worn.

“Elder Han, why the rush?”

“Today is the full moon banquet of the Holy Son’s youngest son!” An elder spoke out in rebuke.

Now that Yang Chen, this Holy Son, had reached the Nascent Soul realm, his status in the Xuantian Sect had risen further. Not just ordinary Nascent Soul elders, even the seven great Soul Transformation elders all treated him respectfully.

Elder Han didn’t bother explaining, hurriedly saying: “Holy Son, there’s a big problem!”

Yang Chen walked forward: “Elder Han, don’t panic, take your time!”

“Holy Son, your adopted son Lin Yan has slaughtered over a thousand cultivators in the mortal realms! Recently, he even refined and killed all the cultivators and mortals in several cities!  Now, many cultivation forces have come to our Xuantian Sect demanding to see the Holy Son for an explanation!”

“What!?” Yang Chen looked astonished.

But inwardly, he was delighted.

Junior Martial Brother Lin Yan, oh Junior Martial Brother Lin Yan. You really opened this father’s eyes. You are, surprisingly, so ruthless! Killing over a thousand cultivators in just one year! And even refining all the cultivators and mortals in several cities!

“Elder Han, you aren’t spouting nonsense, are you? Yan’er, he killed over a thousand cultivators in a year? And refined several cities worth of mortals? How is that possible!?”

Yang Chen showed a look of disbelief.

Elder Han was immediately in tears: “Holy Son, this old man has been the elder of the Punishment Hall of our sect for life, always acting impartially. When have I ever wrongfully accused someone? According to our investigation, one year ago Lin Yan learned a demonic art that lets him absorb others’ cultivation to increase his own strength from a stone wall deep in the Yuhan Cliff! Those Foundation Establishment disciples and Golden Core cultivators at the Yuhan Cliff died by Lin Yan’s hands!

“Now, using his status as your adopted son, he is indiscriminately slaughtering innocents out there! Over a thousand cultivators and the mortals of those cities were tragically killed by him! Now the cultivators out there are saying that the only reason Lin Yan could go on this depraved rampage for so long is because of the Holy Son’s connivance. Otherwise he would have been killed long ago!”

“This?” Yang Chen was stunned.

Actually, he had known long ago that Lin Yan was massacring cultivators out there.

Yan Jiu had been keeping track of Lin Yan’s movements. And the Soul Cult cultivators possessed secret soul concealment techniques.

Even the Flame Empress did not know Yin Jiu had been monitoring them.

Hearing Elder Han’s words, a group of elders immediately said: “Holy Son, although Lin Yan is your adopted son! We cannot let the millennia-old reputation of our Xuantian Sect be ruined like this!”

“That’s right, our Xuantian Sect has a legacy of tens of thousands of years, we’ve always been the righteous leader of the Northern Spiritual Realm!”

“We absolutely cannot let Lin Yan tarnish our sect’s name!”

“Holy Son, please do not shield him any longer! This evil bandit must be eliminated quickly!”

“Holy Son, that Spirit Devouring Scripture, once cultivated, causes demonic backlash. It’s not the cultivator practicing it, but the art controlling the cultivator! Lin Yan has already ceased being the Lin Yan of the past. He is now controlled by that demonic art!”

Hearing these impassioned words, Yang Chen showed a reluctant expression, filled with hesitation.

While tears slid down Lin Xilan’s eyes, clearly very saddened.

But in the end, she said to Yang Chen: “Husband, Yan’er has committed severe crimes and cultivated a demonic art. His sins cannot be pardoned! For this matter, you should heed the elders’ advice!”

“This, alas, alright!”

Yang Chen sighed and said solemnly: “Then I shall go in person to see if Yan’er has truly fallen into the Demonic path!”

…

At this moment, over 20,000 li away from the Xuantian Sect, within a mountain range inside the Liang Kingdom’s borders, Lin Yan, dressed in black robes, had absorbed two First Stage Golden Core realm cultivators, leaving only their desiccated corpses.

“Whew!”

Lin Yan took a deep breath.

“The Spirit Devouring Scripture truly lives up to its reputation as an earth-shattering method! In just one year, I’ve advanced from the Fourth stage of Foundation Establishment realm to the Fourth stage of the Golden Core realm! Even that scoundrel Yang Chen cannot match such a speed! Yang Chen you bastard, just you wait! Rest assured, I won’t directly kill you. I’ll absorb all your cultivation and that Primordial Fire to use for myself! Haha, let everything you have worked for end up being my benefit!!”

Lin Yan walked into the cave mountain.

Inside stood a bewitching figure.

Flame Empress had now refined the Soul Stabilizing Pill, her ethereal form had solidified considerably.

“Yan’er, do not commit further mistakes! In this one year, how many have you killed? The Spirit Devouring Scripture is simply an evil art!”

Flame Empress had taken a relatively long time, over half a year, to integrate the Soul Stabilizing Pill. Upon awakening and exiting the storage ring, she discovered Lin Yan had become his current self.

Filled with heartache. Although she had previously wanted to leave Lin Yan, the master-disciple relationship still remained. During this period, she had been trying to persuade Lin Yan to return to the right path.

“Hmph!” Lin Yan coldly snorted.

“Master, I’ll ask you again, will you give me the Earth Core Red Fire or not?”

Flame Empress shook her head: “You have cultivated the Spirit Devouring Scripture and strayed from the path. This master will not give it to you! Unless you abandon the Spirit Devouring Scripture and sincerely repent, I will not give it to you!”

“Hmph, if you’re unwilling to give it, just say so directly. Why bother with all that?”

Lin Yan curved his lips into a cold smile.

“Yan’er, how can you say such things!? You’re really breaking this master’s heart!”

Disappointment and sadness filled Flame Empress’s charming eyes. She had expended so much effort for the sake of this disciple! Yet now, he spoke to her like this.

“Master, actually, even if you don’t give it to me, it doesn’t matter!”

Lin Yan suddenly let out an eerie laugh. Then, he took out a vial and smashed it on the ground. Instantly, black gas pervaded the entire cave.

“What is this?”

Flame Empress waved her hand, releasing a crimson radiance.

But with her Soul Transformation cultivation, she could not dispel this black gas.

“Master, the Spirit Devouring Scripture records methods to deal with soul bodies! Do you know why this disciple massacred those cities? It was to refine their resentful auras into this Soul Devouring Powder! Master, are you feeling powerless now, unable to manifest your soul power?”

Lin Yan said hoarsely, his expression gradually becoming ferocious. The red light around Flame Empress quickly dissipated. She indeed could no longer circulate her soul power.

“Lin Yan, what are you trying to do?” Flame Empress’s brows furrowed as she questioned sternly.

Lin Yan smiled.

A ferocious smile.

“Master, what if this disciple refines you? What realm could this disciple reach then? As a soul body, you possess the power of the Soul Transformation realm. If I refine you, I could at least reach the Nascent Soul realm! Master, grant this disciple’s wish!”

“You beast!” Flame Empress cursed angrily. She was truly enraged. And had truly given up.

For her disciple to be selfish was one thing. To cultivate an evil art was another. But now, he actually intended to refine his own master! How did he become like this?

“Lin Yan, I would rather die than let you succeed!” Flame Empress spoke, and her aura suddenly surged, actually restoring her cultivation.

She charged straight at Lin Yan.

One palm strike aimed at his forehead.

“Master, don’t, don’t kill me!” Lin Yan retreated in fear.

“Hmph, from now on, our master-disciple relationship is severed, all gratitude discarded!”

In the end, Flame Empress did not strike the killing blow.

She directly flew out of the cave mountain.

But her previously solidified form was gradually becoming illusory again.
