Ever since the page of the Netherworld Book fell into Pei Xuanjing’s hands, apart from gaining a considerable amount of Taoyun energy after refining it, it served no other purpose.

Pei Xuanjing had tried various methods, such as refining it with True Qi, baking it with fire, soaking it in water, and dripping blood onto it. However, the Netherworld Book’s page remained unchanged without any response.

If it were not confirmed that the page of the Netherworld Book was a genuine treasure, Pei Xuanjing nearly had the thought of discarding it.

However, during one life simulation, he accidentally triggered the refinement of the Netherworld Book’s page. Still, he ended up dead due to the Netherworld Book’s backlash afterwards.

Pei Xuanjing was not only curious about the Netherworld Book’s page, but he was also filled with strong apprehension.

Despite his apprehension, since there were signs of change in the Netherworld Book, Pei Xuanjing naturally couldn’t ignore it.

He paused his closed-door cultivation and left Shenxiao Mountain, heading in the direction indicated by the Netherworld Book’s change.

At present, Pei Xuanjing’s skill had reached the pinnacle of Martial Arts. Unless he faces an ambush jointly set up by more than three top-ranking masters of the martial arts world, or is surrounded by countless soldiers, he fears no one.

As for accumulating Taoyun energy for the next life simulation, Pei Xuanjing was not in a rush.

Although the Lord of Shenxiao Gate was powerful, his notoriety was limited due to the need to avoid the pursuit of the Great Ming imperial court. His fame circulated only within a small scope, and only those with a certain status and ability had the privilege of knowing his existence.

However, even so, when the news of Pei Xuanjing killing the Lord of Shenxiao Gate reached the outside, it instantly stunned many people who knew the latter.

It’s clear that even though Bai Xiaosheng did not list him on the Top Masters List, many forces and masters who knew his existence recognized him as a master almost second to the top masters of the martial arts world.

Now that Pei Xuanjing had killed him, it’s as if a new master, capable of standing alongside the top masters, was born.

At this moment, the title “Slayer Taoist” Pei Xuanjing made many people pale, especially those who were associated with the Lord of Shenxiao Gate.

If they wished to keep the news of the Lord of Shenxiao Gate’s death concealed, they could easily have swept it under the rug for the time being.

But Pei Xuanjing not only chose not to hide it, he also spread the news through Bai Xiaosheng.

This was to make it clear to many people that Pei Xuanjing was now considering rebuilding the

Shenxiao Sect. It served as a declaration to those who should rid themselves of certain thoughts.

Of course, it was also meant for those martial artists who were originally gathered under the Lord of Shenxiao Gate and relied on his protection to receive the transmission of the Shenxiao Sect.

They should understand that Pei Xuanjing’s skill already far surpassed that of the Lord of Shenxiao Gate, and they needed to think about how to face Pei Xuanjing, an authoritative figure of the Shenxiao Sect.

Therefore, when Yu Zhenzi with his four first-grade martial artists began to take in the original power of the Lord of Shenxiao Gate, the resistance they encountered was far less than what he had anticipated.

After all, the Lord of Shenxiao Gate was dead, and those who were willing to protect them were only Pei Xuanjing.

If they couldn’t shelter under Pei Xuanjing’s tree, they would have to face not only the pursuit of the Great Ming imperial court but very likely be purged as well.

“If things continue to go this smoothly, it will probably take another half a year to win over all the original people.” Yu Zhenzi said with a laugh.

At this time, he had just received the surrender of a group of people who were originally under the Lord of Shenxiao Gate’s power, his face wearing a smile.

Ever since he saw Pei Xuanjing kill the Lord of Shenxiao Gate, Yu Zhenzi knew that the following things would be simpler than he had expected.

And as expected, once they returned to the secret base of the Lord of Shenxiao Gate and obtained the name list, they started knocking on doors according to the records on the list.

During this time, they recruited nearly a hundred people, and apart from some stubborn ones, or those with notorious criminal deeds who were personally dealt with by them, the rest were taken under their control.

Deng Zhong, who was standing by, also wore a smile, nodding in agreement, “Yes, if we manage to take all these original people under our control, after the Shenxiao Sect is reestablished, we will definitely be comparable to those major forces.”

Originally, the four of them, including Deng Zhong, were not exactly loyal to Pei Xuanjing, it was only due to circumstances and the threat to their lives that they chose to submit.

Moreover, when Pei Xuanjing later left a sword intent on them as a threat, it left them feeling even more resentful.

However, working on these things with Yu Zhenzi over this period gradually diminished their resentment, especially when they saw more and more people submitting and they could still maintain their superior status.

Therefore, their dedication to the task could not be questioned, after all, as Yu Zhenzi analyzed for them.

Once these forces are fully integrated, when Pei Xuanjing reestablishes the Shenxiao Sect, they will definitely become figures comparable to the top masters in the martial arts world.

And now, as Pei Xuanjing has no subordinates, the few of them can be considered as the elders, they will also be able to become important figures comparable to those in major forces in the future. This is much better than being wanted and chased by the Great Ming imperial court, living a life in

hiding..
