This Is Not the Female Demon Lord I Remembered-Chapter 679 - 590: Shadow Mysterious Dao -

Wan Tinggui's arrival caught Liang Yi by surprise, but after giving it some thought, they indeed needed a guide like him to infiltrate the Abyss and sabotage its Heavenly Destiny Spirit Core.

"I thought you were still over by the Abyss."

Liang Yi raised an eyebrow. Since the players joined Shadow, the back and forth transfer of intelligence had been left to them, freeing up Wan Tinggui to personally oversee various plans by the Abyss.

Now Wan Tinggui is also at the Seventh Realm Great Perfection, just like everyone else, a mere step away from the Eighth Realm.

However, to be able to make such progress while collecting all sorts of intelligence from the Abyss and even inciting internal strife there, Wan Tinggui's talent was something that Liang Yi admired.

"I wasn't planning on coming back, but after Banished Immortal senior got in touch with me and told me about the general plan, I immediately rushed back without stopping."

Wan Tinggui helplessly shrugged his shoulders, tossing the jade tube Chen Hua had given him through a secret channel to Liang Yi.

"So, it was master after all?"

Liang Yi came to a realization, it seemed this plan was not made on a whim, but premeditated by the master.

"Hold on, hold on, what is going on here? How come this Devouring Spirit Sect Saintess is showing up here all of a sudden?"

Aside from Yue Bai and Grandpa Ju, people like Zhou Wudao were completely clueless about the current situation, not understanding why the Devouring Spirit Sect Saintess would appear here so boldly.

Wasn't she supposed to have defected to the Abyss along with the Devouring Spirit Sect?

This was something Wan Tinggui himself would surely be too lazy to explain. She had clashed with a few of them before—it wasn't a matter of life and death enmity, but there were some grievances—so the task of explaining fell on Liang Yi.

After some effort, Liang Yi finally explained Wan Tinggui's current identity to everyone, as well as the most critical part of their upcoming plan concerning their disguise method.

"So, it was her who orchestrated the assassination of the White Tiger Envoy? And she led people away from the Devouring Spirit Sect, ingeniously deceiving the Abyss's intelligence gathering."

After understanding Wan Tinggui's identity change, He Zhiqing and Zhou Wudao naturally let go of their wariness.

Knowing now that Wan Tinggui, with her Seventh Realm cultivation, had managed to orchestrate the assassination of the White Tiger Envoy and led a split from the Devouring Spirit Sect right under Tian Anyu's watchful eyes, all while establishing Shadow to gather intelligence from within the Abyss, everyone's perception of her changed significantly.

No matter what Wan Tinggui's previous identity was, at least from these series of actions, they couldn't help but express their admiration!

"So the intelligence you got was all from her? I thought your Divine Skills were so vast that you could reach into the Abyss yourself."

Fang Zhi and the others also looked on in amazement, not expecting the newcomer to be the Devouring Spirit Sect Saintess.

Chen Hua had only revealed the existence of the revised Devouring Spirit Scripture before, and after showing it to them, they finally agreed to the plan's execution, but he never mentioned the existence of Wan Tinggui.

"The fewer people know, the safer it is."

Chen Hua waved his hand, indicating that Fang Zhi and the others needn't worry about these details, then turned to look at Wan Tinggui and said:

"Give them the items, and let them get to grips with them during this time."

Upon Chen Hua's instructions, Wan Tinggui then took out several jade tubes from her ring, which transformed into channels of flowing light and scattered in front of He Zhiqing and the others.

"This is..."

He Zhiqing and the rest, having a vague guess in their hearts, received the jade tubes and probed them with their Divine Sense to see the content inside.

"Shadow Mysterious Dao Chapter"

No one present was anything short of astonishing talent. With just a brief scan of three or four glances, they had already roughly understood the importance of this Cultivation Technique to them.

"It can actually mimic the Abyss Demon Qi, and with this, the first difficult problem is solved."

Excitement flickered in He Zhiqing's eyes.

He had merely tried it out casually and realized that this Cultivation Technique was perfectly sound, sufficient to help them infiltrate deep into the Abyss! 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

"Senior brother, this technique is quite different from before..."

Su Youyi had also browsed through it once and looked up at Liang Yi in surprise.

Liang Yi and Su Youyi were both initially curious as to why they were given a copy as well, since they had already learned the improved version of the Devouring Spirit Scripture and there was no need to re-read it.

But after seeing the content of this Shadow Mysterious Dao Chapter, they realized that although it had certain similarities with the master's revised Devouring Spirit Scripture, it had fundamentally changed, becoming another entirely distinct technique, more suited to Shadow's current needs.

"Yes, unlike the strangely devious Devouring Spirit Scripture, the Shadow Mysterious Dao Chapter leans more towards the authentic Xuanmen Daoist Skill. Not only can it mimic the Abyss Demon Qi but can even manifest one's own Daoist Skill in the form of Abyss Demon Qi."

The more Liang Yi read, the more astonished he felt inside. Despite no change in its grade, in terms of focus, the Shadow Mysterious Dao Chapter had completely deviated from the Devouring Spirit Scripture.

If Shadow had now switched to cultivating this technique, then Shadow would have completely severed its last ties with the former Devouring Spirit Sect, transforming into a brand-new force!

"Is this the result of your past year's work?"

Liang Yi looked up at the somewhat proud Wan Tinggui and couldn't help asking curiously.

"Of course, since we've decided to leave the Devouring Spirit Sect, we naturally wouldn't cling to the Devouring Spirit Scripture as the basis for cultivation. Requesting the Banished Immortal senior to revise the Devouring Spirit Scripture was just a temporary measure. This was to buy time for us to completely switch to the new Cultivation Technique."
