Peerless Taoist

A series of clanking sounds rose and fell, coming from the mouth of the volcano. One could hear them clearly even from miles away.    

Lu Yu silently flew to the sky above the volcano and immediately saw the scene inside the volcano.    

A wave of scorching hot Qi was faintly emitted from the mouth of the volcano.    

The magma inside the volcano was flowing back and forth, and waves of hot air was being emitted from the magma, drifting into the sky.    

Even the space above the lava was affected, causing violent ripples to appear.    

And in such a harsh environment, there was actually a group of servants floating around the volcano to pick the Thunder Fire Snow Lotuses.    

The cultivation level of those servants was very weak, and they were wearing very thin clothes. They could only rely on some simple magic power shields to resist the scorching air.    

At this moment, a servant's forehead was covered in sweat, as if he had reached the limit of his physical strength. He fell straight down from the sky.    

Puchi!    

As soon as he fell into the magma, the servant's legs instantly melted. He only let out a shrill cry before his entire body instantly turned into a wisp of smoke.    

"Hurry up and work, don't dawdle!"    

"What are you looking at? It's you!"    

Beside these servants were a few cultivators wearing white robes, holding long whips as they continuously patrolled.    

If they saw any servants who did not work hard, the whips in their hands would fiercely whip down, tearing the backs of those servants until they were lacerated. Only then would they be willing to give up.    

Picking up the Thunder Fire Snow Lotus was not an easy matter.    

This kind of precious medicinal herb already belonged to the heaven and earth spiritual object. From the moment it was born, it had a trace of spirituality.    

Many of the Thunder Fire Snow Lotuses were hidden deep within the mountain walls of the volcano.    

If one wanted to dig out the Thunder Fire Snow Lotuses, one had to cut open the mountain walls and take out the Thunder Fire Snow Lotuses. After that, they would put the seeds back in and fill them with soil.    

He had to be careful during this process. If he was not careful, he could destroy the structure of the Thunder Fire Snow Lotus.    

The servants here could not leave this place before completing the mission.    

"A bunch of trash. Looks like this year's supply won't be enough." The leading white-robed disciple roared.    

"Senior Martial Brother, the sect has already sent people to destroy the other smaller sects. I think another group of servants will be sent over soon."    

"Then let them speed up. They're just catching a group of servants and dawdling."    

The white clothed disciple berated in a stern voice. But at this moment, a purple light suddenly flashed in his eyes.    

"You guys stay here and watch first. I have something to do, so I'll make a trip back to the sect first." The white-clothed disciple said.    

"Yes, Senior Brother."    

No one cared about the white-clothed disciple's whereabouts. Naturally, no one noticed that the white-clothed disciple's eyes had already turned purple.    

As for Lu Yu, he had already used the transformation technique of the seventy-two transformations of the Earth Fiend. He turned into a speck of dust and attached it to the shoulder of the white-clothed disciple.    

The soul controlled the white-clothed disciple. Instantly, a large amount of memories flowed into Lu Yu's mind.    

This person's name was Chen Sheng, and he was a disciple of the famous Devil Cult, Devil King Valley.    

The Evil King Valley had only risen up from the Marlin Star recently.    

They secretly controlled the medicinal gardens of all sizes of the Marlin Star, and almost monopolized the medicinal herbs industry of the entire Marlin Star, earning huge profits from it.    

Not only that, but the disciples of the Evil King Valley were extremely ruthless. For the sake of their goals, they committed all kinds of crimes. Many disciples often raided the nearby sects, often destroying them. They turned the people of other sects into slaves and tortured them as they pleased.
