Zombies: Cultivating Immortality at Maoshan, Becoming Stronger by Doing Nothing

Chapter 502

Ling Yanyan touched his nose, naturally not wanting to tell Yan Chixia that he wanted to use her to find Nie Xiaoqian.

He could only say, "I recognized the female ghost the moment I met her; I just wanted to see what tricks she was up to."

Seeing Ling Yanyan's nonchalant demeanor, Yan Chixia's lips twitched. He looked at Ling Yanyan and said seriously.

"Although I don't know your strength, don't be arrogant or overconfident, lest you suffer an unexpected setback. Remember, there's a thousand-year-old demon here!"

Yan Chixia paused for a moment, clearly showing his great fear of the Tree Demon Granny.

"This old demon is very powerful and has a very high level of cultivation. She also often controls some of the female ghosts under her command to find young people who pass by. The old demon will absorb the primordial spirit of the young people, so many people have died here."

Speaking of this, Yan Chixia sighed. Although he had tried his best, people still died from time to time.

After saying this, he looked Ling Yanyan over for a while and continued, "So you must be very careful, otherwise with your current strength, if you encounter that thousand-year-old demon, you will only face certain death."

Yan Chixia originally wanted to see just how powerful Ling Yanyan was, but he didn't expect that he couldn't see through Ling Yanyan at all.

This surprised him somewhat, but seeing how young he was, he figured his strength was probably just average and he couldn't possibly defeat the tree demon.

He then gave Ling Yanyan some careful instructions, believing that Ling Yanyan would understand his predicament.

Looking at Yan Chixia like this, Ling Yanyan felt a warmth rise in his heart.

He asked curiously, "If that's the case, then I understand."

Ling Yanyan looked like he had learned something, which pleased Yan Chixia greatly.

Who wouldn't like a disciple who listens to advice?

However, Ling Yanyan thought that since he had only just arrived here, he needed to learn more about the situation.

"Senior, do you know how strong that old demon is now? Why didn't you take action to deal with it?"

Although Ling Yanyan had seen the movie and knew the plot, there was still a possibility that the plot had already collapsed.

So he wanted to find out the details first.

Upon hearing Ling Yanyan's question, Yan Chixia's expression turned somewhat unpleasant, and he said helplessly.

"Of course I did consider taking action, but this ancient demon is very powerful. He never comes out in person and is extremely cautious."

“He usually has his subordinates do the work, and the real body of this thousand-year-old demon is in the deep mountains. He is a tree demon, and he can control the trees in the mountains, making him very difficult to deal with.”

Yan Chixia paused for a moment, then looked at Ling Yanyan and asked, "When you came here, did you notice that the sky looked very dark?"

It's overcast, like it's about to rain at any moment?

Ling Yanyan, recalling his previous experiences, nodded and said, "Yes, senior, you are right."

Yan Chixia's expression became even more serious. He sighed and said, "This is not normal weather. It is because that ancient demon is controlling the weather. So the weather in this mountain forest is usually gloomy and it often rains. There are no wildfires in the forest."

"It's not like I haven't dealt with that old demon before; I've even fought her more than ten times. Unfortunately, neither of us can beat her, so we've been locked in a stalemate."

After listening to Yan Chixia's words, Ling Yanyan, although already aware of these matters, pretended not to know.

He sighed and said, "I never expected this ancient demon to be so powerful."

Yan Chixia hadn't spoken to anyone about his pent-up frustrations for a long time.

After all, those people don't know any Taoist magic, so they wouldn't understand even if I explained it to them.

But Ling Yanyan is different; he is a descendant of the Maoshan sect.

Understanding his current predicament, Yan Chixia continued, "That thousand-year-old demon not only possesses these abilities, but he can also control heavenly lightning and wind and rain. He is extremely powerful, and I almost got injured by him sometimes."
