Elder Gao Feng frowned slightly and said, "How could there be funerary objects?"
The stewards beside the stone coffin looked thoughtful.
"Something is indeed wrong," Guan Ya said, putting down the Double Dragon Jade Pendant in her hand. "This is the Pure Yang Sect's place for sealing demons. The person in the coffin is a heinous demon. Why would there be funerary objects?"
The taciturn steward, Hou De Zai Wu, pondered and said:
"Since it's the Pure Yang Sect's place for sealing demons, the funerary objects were naturally placed by them."
Xia Shu Zhi Lian retorted:
"Why would the Pure Yang Sect prepare funerary objects for a demon?"
Everyone frowned and thought for a long time, unable to figure out the reason. At this moment, Zhang Yuanqing noticed that Jiang Jingwei had suddenly stopped waving the small flag and was standing there motionless.
He frowned, and just as he was about to ask, he heard Jiang Jingwei sigh softly and say:
"Because they are a group of unfilial disciples!"
The girl's voice was clear, but her tone was old-fashioned, hiding vicissitudes.
Everyone looked at Jiang Jingwei in unison.
Unfilial disciples? This... Zhang Yuanqing was greatly startled, his expression changed slightly, and he tentatively asked, "Who, who are you?"
A horrifying guess flashed through his mind, but he felt it was too bizarre to believe.
Guan Ya and the others each adopted a defensive posture, their expressions extremely strange. Obviously, they also had corresponding guesses in their hearts.
Only Elder Gao Feng remained expressionless, merely narrowing his eyes.
"Who am I?"
Jiang Jingwei turned around, her eye sockets surging with darkness, obscuring her eyeballs and pupils, making her look extraordinarily eerie against her fair and delicate face.
She sighed, "I am just a pitiful person suppressed and sealed by unfilial disciples."
As soon as these words came out, everyone present changed their expressions. Although they had vaguely guessed it in their hearts, they were still shocked beyond words to hear it with their own ears.
He is the demon recorded on the stone tablet. He's not dead yet?
Only Guan Ya, because she knew Lao Bang Zi, the resurrected ancient Day Traveler, had some experience, so she had a certain psychological acceptance ability, surprised but not shocked.
Sure enough, it was him, "sleeping" until now like Lao Bang Zi, but without being accommodated by the Spirit Realm and becoming a dungeon like her. I clearly looked at Jingwei's face; she shouldn't have misfortune....... Zhang Yuanqing silently put down the ancient book in his hand and tensed his nerves.
He opened his starry eyes again and secretly observed Jiang Jingwei's face.
It was still a normal face, without any dark clouds or bloody disaster.
Elder Gao Feng scrutinized Jiang Jingwei and said:
"Are you an elder of the Pure Yang Sect?"
The demon imperceptibly glanced at Zhang Yuanqing, then retracted his gaze, and also scrutinized Elder Gao Feng, asking in return:
"Are you the head or elder of the Northern Black Tortoise Gate, or one of the five Seal Holders of the Imperial Court's Five Elements Division?"
After speaking, he glanced at the Saints present and smiled:
"No need to be nervous. This one has no malice. After experiencing a long period of sealing, I have calmed my inner demons and found myself again. What dynasty is it now? Does the Zhao family still rule the world?"
His expression was calm, his tone gentle, without the slightest hint of the sinister arrogance of an evil person.
Elder Gao Feng said:
"A thousand years have passed. Now it is an era where the people are the masters of their own house. Imperial power is already dust in history. You haven't answered my question yet."
The eyes occupied by darkness revealed a trace of daze. After a few seconds, the ancient cultivator sighed:
"A thousand years are but a blink of an eye..."
He looked at Elder Gao Feng and said, "This one is the head of the Pure Yang Sect."
Guan Ya frowned and said, "I don't care whether you're the head or a demon. Please leave my companion's body. Otherwise, we will take all necessary coercive measures."
"Hehe..." The head of the Pure Yang Sect smiled:
"A wisp of my remnant soul is entrusted in the Blazing Flame Flag. She used a magic artifact to activate my consciousness. This one is just borrowing her body to get some air. After eking out an existence for a thousand years, this one's primordial spirit is already extremely weak and will soon return to the world."
Everyone looked at Elder Gao Feng.
Elder Gao Feng nodded slightly, seemingly acknowledging the state of the Pure Yang Sect head, and asked:
"How were you sealed in this place? The inscription on the stele...

The events are they true?"
Seeing the elder inquiring about ancient immortal sect secrets, the stewards temporarily quieted down and listened attentively. The demon turned his head to look at the stone tablet below and sneered, "Taking things out of context."
"When I was plagued by inner demons, I did indeed do many wrong things and killed many innocent people, but all of this was thanks to that unfilial disciple. During the Northern Song Dynasty, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth gradually thinned, and countless cultivators could no longer make any progress. My unfilial disciple was gifted and intelligent, but limited by the general trend of heaven and earth, she could not advance to Golden Crow. In order to seek a breakthrough, she became a demon with a single thought and came up with a method of deceiving the master and destroying the ancestor."
"What method!" Elder Gao Feng asked.
A hint of hatred flashed in the eyes of the Pure Yang Sect head:
"While I was in seclusion, she joined forces with people from the Demon Sect to use a secret method to stimulate my inner demons, and then used the Pure Yang Sect's treasure to seize my Yang Soul, attempting to replace me and advance to Golden Crow by devouring me.
"But she underestimated this one. Although I lost half of my Yang Soul, I still fought my way out. From then on, my mind was deranged and dominated by inner demons, causing a series of human disasters.
Another evil art of advancing by "devouring" people. Lao Bang Zi said that from the Song to the Ming Dynasties, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was exhausted, and cultivators fought each other to survive and advance. Even her disciple, Miao Zhu, embarked on this path of no return back then. Hmm, Golden Crow refers to the Day Traveler, right....... Zhang Yuanqing's thoughts flew.
The Pure Yang Sect head's statement was consistent with his understanding of ancient cultivation history.
The Pure Yang Sect head continued:
"Later, she successfully refined this one's Yang Soul, advanced to Golden Crow, and led the Pure Yang Sect to deceive the master and destroy the ancestor, sealing me in this place. These funerary objects are nothing more than hypocritical gestures."
Steward Hua Yu suddenly understood: "No wonder the content of the inscription is vague about your record. It turns out there is such a hidden story."
Several stewards believed most of it, but Elder Gao Feng remained noncommittal. After thinking for a few seconds, he asked:
"Then why didn't she kill you, but instead sealed you in this place."
The Pure Yang Sect head snorted:
"That's where that unfilial disciple is hypocritical. Sealing me for thousands of years, what difference is there from killing me? Instead, she gets a good reputation."
Elder Gao Feng asked: "Who is the unfilial disciple you speak of, the imperial princess of the Song Dynasty recorded on the stele?"
He wanted to make further confirmation.
The Pure Yang Sect head was slightly silent, and smiled gently:
"That unfilial disciple of mine is probably exhausted her lifespan and has been dead for many years. If you want to see it, then I'll show it to you."
After saying that, he waved his left hand, which was not holding the Blazing Flame Flag, and created an illusion beside him.
It was a beautiful woman wearing a plain palace dress, with a delicate bun adorned with a golden hairpin, and clear and beautiful features. Her clean forehead was decorated with a plum blossom-shaped applique.
This, this... Zhang Yuanqing could not control his expression, revealing obvious shock and astonishment.
Lao Bang Zi!
The young woman conjured by the Pure Yang Sect head was actually Lao Bang Zi.
Of course, not the Lao Bang Zi of today, but the Lao Bang Zi of her youth. Amidst her coldness, there was a hint of youthfulness and arrogance. Judging by her age, she would not have been more than twenty years old, still in the youthful years when she thought she was a "beautiful little princess."
The unfilial disciple in the Pure Yang Sect head's mouth is Lao Bang Zi?
Did Lao Bang Zi also use the method of devouring people to achieve the Day Traveler position back then?
Guan Ya also showed astonishment on her face. She had seen Lao Bang Zi in the slaughter dungeon.
No, although Lao Bang Zi has a cold and difficult-to-approach personality, she is indeed a righteous god. The disgust in her tone when she talked about her disciple devouring people to cultivate was definitely not fake.
She doesn't need to lie to me.......
Although he may not understand Lao Bang Zi, Zhang Yuanqing was more willing to believe in Lao Bang Zi, whom he had dealt with several times, compared to the Pure Yang Sect head, who he knew nothing about.
At this moment, the Pure Yang Sect head smiled slightly:
"Everyone, allow me to borrow this body for a moment longer. I want to see the outside world and fulfill my long-cherished wish."
The stewards couldn't help but look at Elder Gao Feng, who pondered for a moment and said:
"Yes, but it must be within my sight."
The Pure Yang Sect head nodded: "Agreed!"
But at this moment, Zhang Yuanqing said urgently:
"Elder, don't believe him! He's lying. Don't let him occupy Jingwei's body again."

Hua Yu, Xia Shu Zhi Lian and others were taken aback and looked at Yuan Shi Tian Zun, not understanding how he judged that the Pure Yang Sect head was lying.
The Pure Yang Sect head narrowed his eyes and sighed:
"This one is telling the truth. Why doesn't this little friend believe me?"
Elder Gao Feng turned his head and looked at Yuan Shi Tian Zun: "Are you sure?"
Zhang Yuanqing nodded: "I know that imperial princess. She is a righteous person and doesn't seem like someone who would commit the evil act of deceiving the master and destroying the ancestor. I don't know what this Pure Yang Sect head is trying to do by stalling for time, but it's best not to be fooled."
The expressions of the surrounding stewards changed. Yuan Shi Tian Zun actually knew an ancient cultivator, knew the beautiful woman conjured by the illusion?
Elder Gao Feng was also somewhat surprised. He had not watched the mid-year slaughter dungeon, so he did not recognize Lady of the Three Dao Mountains.
Without any hesitation, he unconditionally believed in the Five Elements Alliance's young genius. Elder Gao Feng reached out and grabbed a black cloth banner, and heavily whipped it on Jiang Jingwei's body.
A phantom immediately popped out of Jiang Jingwei's body and quickly floated away.
Jiang Jingwei fell to the ground with a thud, unconscious.
Seeing this, Elder Gao Feng suddenly lifted his right palm, and with a "boom," four earthen walls rose up from the edge of the high platform, forming a square that trapped everyone on the stage.
Little Book Pavilion
The phantom crashed into the earthen wall and was bounced back. The intangible spirit body could not penetrate the earthen wall.
At this time, everyone could see the appearance of the phantom, a young man wearing a illusory Taoist robe, with handsome features, a full head of white hair, and extremely cold eyes.
Yes, non-Night Traveler professionals could also see this phantom. This was not an ordinary spirit body, but a Primordial Spirit!
Looking directly at this Primordial Spirit, Zhang Yuanqing felt his soul trembling, as if he had encountered a natural enemy.
Seeing that he could not leave, the Pure Yang Sect head immediately targeted Zhang Yuanqing.
Elder Gao Feng stood in front of Yuan Shi Tian Zun, and the black cloth banner in his hand whipped towards the Pure Yang Sect head's spirit body.
Unexpectedly, the spirit body instantly collapsed, turning into a wisp of ghostly green smoke, avoiding the whipping of the black cloth banner, and continued to float towards Zhang Yuanqing.
This head had extremely high attainments in the Primordial Spirit. If it were Zhang Yuanqing, he would never be able to perform the operation of "dispersing" his own spirit body.
"Yuan Shi!" Guan Ya's face turned pale, and she desperately stood in front of him.
Damn it...... Zhang Yuanqing was startled, and immediately took out the Demon Subduing Pestle and stabbed it hard into his thigh. A round of dazzling golden light exploded, filling every space on the high platform.
The Pure Yang Sect head's Primordial Spirit crashed into the bursting golden light, and suddenly emitted illusory black smoke, making a shrill scream:
"Why do you have the Pure Yang Sect's treasure? What is your relationship with that unfilial disciple?"
This small chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content!
Elder Gao Feng calmly retracted the black cloth banner, his palm aimed at the Primordial Spirit bathed in golden light, and gently grabbed.
In an instant, strands of yellowish-brown earth spirit power quickly condensed, adhering to the Pure Yang Sect head's Primordial Spirit, and constantly compressing, compressing, condensing into a small ball.
It could be vaguely seen that a wisp of green smoke in the ball seemed to be colliding randomly, seeming to want to break through the cage.
At the same time, Elder Gao Feng raised his hand and beckoned, and the Demon Subduing Pestle in Zhang Yuanqing's hand flew up by itself, floating in front of him, the three-sided tip aimed at the khaki-colored small ball.
Elder Gao Feng waved his hand gently, and the Demon Subduing Pestle shot out, penetrating the khaki-colored small ball.
Another round of golden light erupted, accompanied by the screams of the Pure Yang Sect head.
A few seconds later, the golden light dissipated, and everything turned into nothingness.
Everyone silently exhaled.
So strong, he's clearly an earth monster, but he can even trap spirit bodies....... Zhang Yuanqing bent down and picked up the Demon Subduing Pestle that had fallen on the ground, thinking that with the protection of an eighth-level elder, there was indeed a strong sense of security.
Guan Ya then ran to the middle school student. After checking her, she frowned and said, "Jingwei's state is a bit off." Elder Gao Feng, whose hairline was receding, walked over, looked at her a few times, and said:
"Her mental power has been drained and has become the nourishment for that wraith. Just now, the Pure Yang Sect head was stalling for time in order to restore his strength. A very subtle method. As expected of an ancient cultivator, I haven't seen the elders of one sect use this trick before."
Zhang Yuanqing thought that he had clearly looked at Jingwei's face using astrology, and there were no abnormalities, but the reality was that she was "injured."
Can a high-level Night Traveler deceive astrology?
Elder Gao Feng said

Said:
"You guys divide the funerary objects. Don't write these things in the report."
Otherwise, according to the rules of the Five Elements Alliance, these items would have to be handed over in exchange for merit points and bonuses.
Official organizations are not allowed to hide spoils of war. Of course, such incidents are repeatedly prohibited, but the official will not care if no one reports it. What kind of compassionate leader is this? Zhang Yuanqing hurriedly said:
"Elder, you should choose one too."
Elder Gao Feng waved his hand: "The level is too low. It's useless for me to take it."
"Elder, then I'll treat you to a big meal," Zhang Yuanqing said.
Elder Gao Feng's eyes lit up. He didn't expect this kid to be so sensible and showed a smile:
"Alright!
"Come to Hang City when you have time. I'll take you hiking."
...... Zhang Yuanqing didn't know whether to refuse or agree for a moment.
Immediately, everyone divided the funerary objects in the stone coffin. Zhang Yuanqing rightfully collected the two ancient books, plus the bronze tripod.
Because Guan Ya had the Han Ba Fang Ancient Sword, she gave the small sword that could cut iron like mud to Xia Shu Zhi Lian, took the Double Dragon Jade Pendant, and kept the Blazing Flame Small Flag for Jiang Jingwei.
Steward Hua Yu chose the emerald green bead, Hou De Zai Wu chose the ancient mirror, and the last bronze Taotie beast, everyone planned to hand it over to the Hang City branch.
After dividing the spoils, everyone held hands, Elder Gao Feng held down Xia Shu Zhi Lian's shoulder, and led his subordinates to leave with Earth Escape.
......
Outside the ancient tomb, on the edge of the bright yellow police line, a security guard slowly raised his head, darkness surging in his eye sockets.
He turned his head to look at the entrance to the ancient tomb, the corner of his mouth raised, and whispered to himself:
"Good disciple, so you're not dead yet......."
On a midsummer night, at eleven-thirty, Zhang Yuanqing's team, after eating a big meal and exchanging contact information with several stewards and Elder Gao Feng, took a business car back to Songhai and arrived at the Fu Family Bay Villa to report.
Fu Qingyang listened silently and said, "I see."
His expression was calm and he was not curious about the history of ancient cultivators. He seemed to have known it for a long time, and the ancient tomb incident belonged to the jurisdiction of the Hang City branch and was not under the control of the Songhai branch.
Zhang Yuanqing said, "I want to convey this matter to the Lady of the Three Dao Mountains and verify the words of the Pure Yang Sect head through her, but she has been silent since the last time she descended.
Fu Qingyang scrutinized him: "So?"
"I want to apply to the branch for the materials for the summoning ritual. Well, I hope this counts as expenses, not my personal expenses," Zhang Yuanqing said.
Personal expenses had to be repaid, but expenses didn't.
Fu Qingyang saw through his little thoughts and said indifferently:
"List a list for Bunny Girl, and I'll have someone send it to the next door later." But as long as the requirements weren't too excessive, Qian Gongzi would satisfy his confidants.
"Also," Fu Qingyang said in a deep voice, "stay at home recently and don't go out."
He didn't explain why and waved his hand: "Go back and rest."
Zhang Yuanqing got up, "You should rest early too."
He turned into a dreamy starlight and disappeared into the study.
......
At one o'clock in the morning, in a small apartment villa.
The Queen and Little Green Tea, who were wandering around in their pajamas, finally went back to their rooms to rest.
Zhang Yuanqing in the second-floor bedroom heard a knock on the door. He opened the door, and Bunny Girl, with her tall figure, stood gracefully at the door, behind her was a dining cart.
"Mr. Yuan Shi, the materials you requested have arrived," she said with a smile.
The efficiency is so fast...... Zhang Yuanqing nodded, pulled the dining cart into the room, "You can go back and rest."
He closed the door, uncovered the tablecloth, and there were dozens of materials on it. Common ones included cinnabar, yellow paper, and Yin soil from mass graves, and uncommon ones included spirit jade, star sand, etc.
Except for the materials for the summoning ritual, Zhang Yuanqing also reported the materials for making talismans when he made the list.
As expected, the gang leader, who was good at convincing people with virtue, once again satisfied his needs.
Zhang Yuanqing took out the materials for summoning Lao Bang Zi one by one and began the summoning ritual.
