Cultivating In Secret Beside A Demoness

Chapter 1161: Breaking the Mental Barrier

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Amid the jungle, a towering mountain peak rose into the clouds. It was shrouded in mist.

The mountain was steep, with cliffs covered in dry grass and rocks. Everyone who looked upon it felt a sense of fear.

At that moment, two figures stood at the highest point.

One was a middle-aged man in Daoist robes. His long hair flowed elegantly, and his handsome features were tinged with melancholy.

The other was a beautiful woman in dark robes. She held a starlight stone tablet. She seemed untouched by the passage of time. She looked at the man in puzzlement.

“It seems he’s here. What could have happened?” Hu Yuexin asked.

Feng Hua sighed.

“When did you receive the news, Senior?”

“It has been some time.”

“The ‘gift’ should be here soon. Senior, be careful.”

“Be careful? Why? What is he planning to do?” Hu Yuexin asked.

“I don’t know about that, but from what I know about him, he’ll definitely do something to make you angry, Senior.”

“Make me angry?” Hu Yuexin smiled. “What can he do to make me angry? What is there in the South that I care about? Even if he has destroyed a few wisps of my spirit, it doesn’t affect me at all unless he tries to take something of mine. But there is nothing in the South that I value.”

“Senior, it seems you are confident,” said Feng Hua. “I’m not trying to dampen your spirit, but I was the same as you back then, and he always found some way to provoke me. His ‘gifts’… It’s always beyond my imagination.”

“It’s not that I’m confident…” Hu Yuexin shook her head. “It’s just that the South doesn’t have anything that belongs to me. I’m here on a mission. Even if the mission fails, it won’t matter to me much. After all, he can’t do anything to my main body. Whether it’s the Heavenly Note Sect or the Blackheaven Sect, he can only affect a wisp of my soul. That’s all he’ll get.”

Feng Hua nodded.

This was not Hu Yuexin’s home ground. He could not hurt her unless he brought something threatening from overseas.

But how was he going to give it to her?

Feng Hua frowned.

She wondered if he would contact her. He could not possibly know that she was with Hu Yuexin.

However, what other channels did he have?

Feng Hua could not figure it out and neither could Hu Yuexin.

“Since he wants to give me a gift, I’ll wait for him here. I wonder if he can find me.” Hu Yuexin smiled. “It’s best if you can find him. It saves me the trouble of looking for him.”

They were not easy to find, and neither was Smiling San Sheng.

But they did not want to appear before him recklessly.

They had not even intended to meet Smiling San Sheng. But their paths had crossed because of some small matter.

It had come to this point. There was no great reason for it.

It was too late to change anything.

They only remembered that the other party was a threat.

They just had to do their best to get rid of him.

Hu Yuexin waited from day to night.

She had been here for a long time, but she had not received any ‘gifts.’

“This is somewhat disappointing…”

“Maybe he can’t find us,” Feng Hua said.

“Looks like I was looking forward to it for nothing.” Hu Yuexin planned to head to the Blackheaven Sect.

Just as she took a step forward, she froze.

Feng Hua asked, “What’s wrong?”

Hu Yuexin did not respond. She frowned.

A crack appeared between her eyebrows, and terrifying mental power poured out.

It shook the surroundings.

Hu Yuexin raised her hand to cover it, and her immortal energy burst forth. However, no matter what she did, she could not stop her spiritual energy from spreading out.

“How could this be? How is this possible?” Hu Yuexin was shocked.

It was unbelievable!

Even Feng Hua found it hard to believe.

This was… the Mind Control Core.

“This has never happened before. Why is this happening now?!” Hu Yuexin roared. “Who is doing this?”

The power erupted like a storm.

Seeing the reaction of the person beside her, Feng Hua instinctively said, “Smiling San Sheng…”

This was his “gift.”

“Smiling San Sheng?!” Hu Yuexin could not believe it. “He’s just a person who has just entered the Immortal Ascension Platform. How could he be capable of something like this? How could he break the mental barrier?”

The mental barrier had broken and caused her Mind Control Core to shatter.

“This is his gift,” Feng Hua said. “It was something like that for me, too.”

Hu Yuexin was stunned.

She never expected something like this.

When she sensed her mental barrier shatter, she felt enraged.

She reached out and squeezed.

Boom!

A terrifying power erupted, and the mountains were flattened with impact.

“Smiling San Sheng! I want you dead!”

Feng Hua looked around and realized that the Great Thousand God Sect was about to make a move.

The Mind Control Core was broken. This was something that had never happened before.

Smiling San Sheng had a death wish.

The Heavenly Note Sect would feel the brunt of this.

After all, the mental barrier was in the Heavenly Note Sect.

They had to start from there. It would be great if the Heavenly Note Sect cooperated with them, but if they did not…

Perhaps it was time for the Heavenly Note Sect to disappear.

But…

The Heavenly Note Sect was not a normal sect, so it would be interesting to see what would happen.

She wanted to see the limit of the Heavenly Note Sect.

As for Smiling San Sheng…

He should not live for long.

He had strange powers.

…

On the fifth floor of the Lawless Tower, everything was quiet.

The lantern bearer often discussed Jiang Hao with Mi Lingyue and Zhuang Yuzhen.

The three of them were more familiar with each other.

Hai Luo had left, so they had to find someone to talk to.

Otherwise, it would be boring.

“I feel like Hai Luo was not that bad, after all. That man who strictly followed the righteous path was not bad either. I wonder where he is,” said Mi Lingyue.

That righteous person had claimed that his record was spotless, and yet he had surrendered to Jiang Hao too.

Recently, Zhuang Dongyun had been acting like that too.

They missed Hai Luo. Maybe he was not coming back.

Someone had come to the fifth floor once again. It was Bing Qing. She was placed in the eighth cell.

She had been taken away a long time ago. No one thought she would come back.

She seemed a lot more cheerful than before. She told everyone that she had been to the mine and met her friend there.

The lowest of the prisoners were sent to the mine.

The others were very curious about the mine.

After a while, they stopped talking.

They were waiting for something to happen.

Unfortunately, things rarely happened here.

Suddenly, the captive of the seventh cell was mocking the prisoner of the eighth cell. She was making fun of Bing Qing because her friend was actually just a stupid beast.

Bing Qing flew into a rage and reached out to grab the other prisoner.

“Bing Qing, you have a death wish!” Zhuang Dongyun sneered.

She was only at the Lifeblood Refinement Realm, after all.

Mi Lingyue and the others wanted to watch the show, but suddenly, a terrified scream rang out.

“Ahhhh! What is this? Bing Qing, what did you do? Aarrg!”

They screamed in horror.

It was not just Zhuang Dongyun.

The others in the cells felt cracks appear between their brows.

The spiritual energy spread out.

The mental barrier was broken!

“This is the mental barrier?” Old Man Corpse Sea asked.

Only then did the others react.

They were all in disbelief. What was going on? Why was the mental barrier broken?
