Chapter 686: Chapter 530: I Can Still Be a Demon Catcher Without the Sect Master’s Robe

[After slaying the White Jade Capital’s Yue Hua Frost Tiger, total lifespan years: 386,000, remaining lifespan years: 233,000, absorption complete]

[Remaining Demon Lifespan Years: 570,000]

The lifespans left by the three elder demons were unremarkable, and not to mention the two tomb-guarding Tiger Demons, fortunately, the younger Tiger Demon, though slightly disappointing in character, truly possessed remarkable talent.

Shen Yi did not linger any longer and swiftly left the dark red waters with Yu Lan and You Chang.

He was not quite sure if the Dragon Consort still had her eye on him.

Even if You Chang were likely on par with the powerhouses of the Five Cities, it would still be difficult to sense the scrutiny of a Unity Realm Stage Great Demon.

"Whew."

Shen Yi listened to the wind by his ears and gazed at the delicate Water Lotus in his palm, inevitably falling into contemplation.

In theory, with so much demon lifespan, it should be enough for him to reach the next milestone on the Nameless Mountain.

After all, that mountain belongs to someone else, and although when we parted last time, Yan Chongzhang seemed to be inviting me over to Guan Mountain, but he’s still just a Daozi, not a true Sect Master. Who knows if the Ban Shan Sect will suddenly change their minds.

The longer the delay, the more likely things will change.

But for the moment, Shen Yi suddenly felt reluctant to go. The reason lay in that Water Lotus and in what had been said about tomb-guarding earlier by several Tiger Demons.

I remember the Black-backed Jiao guard once mentioned that this object is used for life extension and the Tiger Demon wanted to bring it into the tomb... to extend the life of the dead?

To overcome the hardships of birth, aging, sickness, and death is difficult, and few surpass the Fourth Calamity.

Shen Yi did not believe it was because those Unity Realm grandees couldn’t see the fourth city; anyone who can be a leader of an Immortal Sect was a dragon amongst men in their youth, surely not far behind Su Hongxiu.

Since this Heavenly Sword Sect Daozi can see Emperor City, those Sect Masters must be able to as well, but according to the memories left in my mind from Sect Master Qin’s bead, most of the Sect Masters end up halting at the calamity of illness and then contentedly await their succession of the He Dao Bao Di.

To break free from life and death seems a simple four words, but in reality, it is never that easy.

Even cultivators who meditate to cultivate their hearts can’t achieve it, let alone demons who need only eat and drink heartily and rely on their bloodlines to increase their strength.

At least since arriving in Western Hong, I’ve slain so many Great Demons, and to this day, not even one has given me the slightest hope of overcoming death.

If nothing goes wrong, it’ll probably continue to be difficult to encounter such in the future.

"This is an opportunity."

Shen Yi shook his head and earnestly stowed away the Water Lotus.

If I drag this out too long and let whatever’s in that so-called tomb notice something amiss, it will be far more difficult to infiltrate later on.

After all, the Yue Hua Frost Tiger clan possesses a legitimate force with Great Demons of Unity Realm Stage strength stationed there—more than one, in fact.

In the face of this issue, everything else can wait.

With this thought in mind, Shen Yi no longer hesitated and directly condensed a gray-white Town Stone statue.

As for the choice of Demon Soul, he did not skimp on the Demon Lifespan Years and unusually chose one of the older tomb-guarding Tiger Demons.

This time, the Demon Origin alone cost a total of thirty-two pieces!

The corpses of all six Tiger Demons were integrated into the Town Stone.

In an instant, a Yue Hua Frost Tiger Town Stone, only slightly less powerful than You Chang, opened its horrifying eyes.

"Greetings, my Lord!"

This tomb-guarding White Tiger was precisely the one previously slain by the Wusheng Palm.

It nervously scanned the few people before it, knowing the Python Demon might be the most powerful, but the master in the dark robe was definitely the most dangerous.

"Where is the tomb, and who is buried there?" Shen Yi asked directly and concisely.

This was the first time the tomb-guarding White Tiger heard him speak; the target was clear without a hint of superfluous talk, and it couldn’t help but feel a twinge of complexity.

Although it spent most of its time in the tomb, it had stayed in Western Hong for so many years and was quite worldly. Yet, it had never seen a force of demons so merciless and as if devoid of any extraneous emotions.

Without any hesitation, the tomb-guarding White Tiger responded straight away, "Replying to my Lord, the tomb lies at the edge of Western Hong where Yue Hua’s presence is most intense. Buried within is the chieftain’s only daughter. The young miss encountered a fierce battle in her mother’s womb, nearly perishing with her. Ultimately, though the lady passed away, the chieftain, through tremendous divine skills, forcibly preserved a remnant soul of the young miss."

At this point, a flicker of wariness crossed through the eyes of the tomb-guarding White Tiger: "And then borrowed the Life Extension Lotus from the East Dragon Palace to continue her life... which has now lasted a hundred thousand years."

"I see your chief is quite sentimental," You Chang raised an eyebrow, always having been outspoken rather than taciturn, it was just that it had been bullied by Wu Jun in the Northern Palace and thus behaved so obediently. Now that it finally had the chance to get out and about, it could not contain itself.

In the Earthly Dark Python clan... no, it should be said that in most Demon Races, it is rare to see such affection between father and daughter.

After all, demons have such long lifespans that apart from a few clans, most leave offspring everywhere, so numerous that even they can’t keep track. Only those rare and highly talented descendants are considered true heirs.

The Dragon Palace is a case in point.

Almost every Dragon Palace has

Let alone for an unborn "decease infant," such a great cost.

"..."

Yu Lan averted her gaze noncommittally, not speaking, but clearly not agreeing with You Chang’s view.

The tomb-guarding White Tiger managed an awkward smile.

"Is there a Unity Realm Stage presence overseeing it?" Shen Yi, on the other hand, shared a similar thought with Yu Lan. Rather than describe it as deep father-daughter affection, to him, it sounded like something rather
