Chapter 928 - 1028: The Primeval Master Takes Action

After putting Ye Tianfan in the warehouse and personally explaining a few materials to him, Yuan Chu Zhenren left to prepare the items needed for refining the Supreme Magical Treasure.

After Xie Tianfan briefly familiarized himself with these materials, he returned to Taihuo Peak, preparing to make another trip to Taizhen Peak to learn the essence of the Array.

However, at this moment, a disciple from Taichu Peak appeared at Taihuo Peak to report that the Sect Leader was summoning him.

Upon hearing this news, Tian Chu Zhenren frowned immediately, wondering if his senior brother was having second thoughts and was starting to indoctrinate Ye Tianfan. However, Tian Chu Zhenren quickly shook his head, realizing that even if indoctrination happened now, it would be useless since Ye Tianfan's current strength was still not very strong. Even if he were indoctrinated now, he could be guided back on the right path later. Nevertheless, Tian Chu Zhenren was still curious about what matters his senior brother had with Ye Tianfan. Still, he refrained from asking and simply directed Ye Tianfan to follow the disciple to Taichu Peak.

Upon receiving permission, Ye Tianfan followed the disciple to Taichu Peak and met the Taichu Sect Leader.

"I greet the Sect Leader. May I ask what important matter Sect Leader Uncle has for summoning me?" Ye Tianfan respectfully said upon seeing Tian Chu Zhenren.

Tian Chu Zhenren secretly smiled when he saw Ye Tianfan arriving!

Then Tian Chu Zhenren said to Ye Tianfan, "I've summoned you because there is a task that requires your preparation."

"What task?" Ye Tianfan asked.

"After that organization was temporarily eliminated, the demons of the Demon Sect resumed their plans. They appear to be restarting the previous Dark Beast Plan, having abandoned the former Dark Vermilion Bird and Dark Black Tortoise and started cultivating four new Dark Four Beasts. We've received news that the Dark Black Dragon is being nurtured in a cave called Xuanqian Cave, while we have a clue about the other three. Before anything else, we must eliminate the Dark Black Dragon. Hence, I'd like you to lead some disciples and use the previous generation of the Dark Black Dragon to eliminate this new one!" Tian Chu Zhenren explained.

Ye Tianfan was slightly surprised to hear the name Dark Four Beasts, as he was aware of the Dark Four Holy Beasts' power. However, the newly cultivated Four Beasts should not be as strong, since the Dark Black Dragon he encountered previously was very powerful; the newly cultivated beasts might have higher potential, but it is unlikely their current strength is high.

Ye Tianfan nodded towards Tian Chu Zhenren and said, "Leave this task to me. I will accomplish this mission and either eliminate or subdue the new generation of the Dark Black Dragon."

Hearing Ye Tianfan's words, Tian Chu Zhenren shook his head and said, "For this time's Dark Celestial Dragon, do not subdue it; eliminate it directly. This generation's Dark Black Dragon was born from an extremely bloodthirsty and cruel Seven Poison Swallowing Serpent. Therefore, this Dark Black Dragon carries many lives on its back, and we do not intend to subdue it; just eliminate it!"

Ye Tianfan nodded at Tian Chu Zhenren's words. Indeed, it must be eliminated; otherwise, how could they answer to those who have already lost their lives? Moreover, Ye Tianfan had heard of the Seven Poison Swallowing Serpent's reputation. The serpent contains seven types of poison within its body. When it preys, it usually injects its prey with seven poisons, then waits until the prey dies a painful death before swallowing it whole, earning its name as the Seven Poison Swallowing Serpent.

The Seven Poison Swallowing Serpent is extremely vicious, injecting its seven poisons into any living thing. This serpent particularly enjoys consuming Cultivators because the Spiritual Power within cultivators allows the serpent to evolve at a faster rate. More importantly, not only does the cultivators' Spiritual Power promote evolution, but their flesh, after being cleansed by Spiritual Qi, becomes incredibly delicious.

Of course, this "deliciousness" is only from the perspective of the Seven Poison Swallowing Serpent.

If the Demon Sect indeed uses the Seven Poison Swallowing Serpent to cultivate the new Dark Black Dragon, the result would be capturing countless people for the serpent to devour.

They would even inject some Spiritual Qi into those people.

If a person is not a Cultivator, injecting a large amount of Spiritual Qi into their body would sever their meridians, and they would suffer the agony of Spiritual Qi tearing through their flesh until death. If they seek death as relief from their agony, it would be an arduous feat until their body runs out of Spiritual Power.

Ye Tianfan could already imagine the immense number of people sacrificed in nurturing this Dark Black Dragon, otherwise known as the Seven Poison Swallowing Serpent. These people would endure immense suffering even before becoming food for the serpent.

Thus, Ye Tianwen viewed the process of the Demon Sect's cultivation of the Four Holy Beasts as extremely critical, as any mistake could lead to the death of everyone present.

Thus, Ye Tianfan readily promised to complete this task. Next, he asked Tian Chu Zhenren, "Sect Leader Uncle, rest assured, no matter who the enemy is, I will do my utmost to eliminate them! I will not allow them to harm ordinary citizens again!"

Tian Chu Zhenren nodded at Ye Tianfan's words and said, "Next, I will assign four disciples to follow you. You must lead them to accomplish this task, ensuring they return safely as well!"

Ye Tianfan nodded and assured that if they were to perish, he would die before them!

Tian Chu Zhenren assigned some lagging disciples to accompany Ye Tianfan; firstly, for them to gain experience, and secondly, to strengthen Ye Tianfan's sense of responsibility. As his sense of responsibility grows, he will come closer to the position of the Taichu Sect Leader, tasked with bearing the responsibilities of the entire Taichu Sect!

After Ye Tianfan agreed, Tian Chu Zhenren smiled and said, "Do not be so stern. Most importantly, prioritize your own safety and, secondly, the safety of your fellow disciples. I trust you, Nephew Tianfan, to bring them back alive!"

Subsequently, Tian Chu Zhenren called those four disciples inside!
