Bai Ze's words made Jiang Yun jump in surprise, but after recovering, he immediately shook his head and said: "Impossible, the Supreme Ancestor is the ancestor of Yaoshengzong. If he were a demon clan, Yaoshengzong or his master should have discovered it long ago."

Even if his master didn't mind taking a monster race disciple, he should at least have told the Sect Leader and elders of Yaoshending about his true identity.

Moreover, I couldn't sense any trace of demonic energy on him at all! How could he possibly be a demon?

Seeing that Jiang Yun clearly didn't believe his own words, Bai Ze couldn't help but sneer: "Whether others have noticed it, I don't know. But you just stepped into the door of a demon cultivator, while that Taishang ancestor has lived for at least a thousand years. He intentionally concealed his demonic aura, which is something you are incapable of detecting."

Ginger Cloud still insisted on her point of view, saying: "Bai Ze, I think you've made a mistake this time. Although his attitude towards me wasn't friendly, it was because I took the complete inheritance."

"Hmph!" Bai Ze's voice suddenly rose, letting out a sneer. "Actually, the last time you entered the Lian Tian Lu, I had suspicions about him, but I wasn't sure at the time, so I didn't say anything."

This time, I can be sure, he definitely has a problem!

Besides, I didn't say he was already a demon. He should be similar to that Luo Lingxiao kid from the Luo family, half-human and half-demon!

When it came to Luo Lingxiao, Jiang Yun really remembered him. He frowned and asked, "Do you mean that even the Supreme Patriarch has a demon seed implanted within him?"

"No, not a demonkind!"

Baize shook his head and said, "Among the demon clan, there is a special kind of demon called a demon spirit."

This kind of demon wasn't born from any particular race or between heaven and earth. It was born from a certain type of elixir or magical artifact!

"Origin is spirit, later it becomes demon!"

"The most common is the qìlíng, a good magic weapon, used for a long time, will have spirituality. Over time, if there is a coincidence, it may give birth to a demon!"

Jiang Yun no longer refuted, because although he had never seen a spirit artifact, he had seen quite a few records in the Sutra Pavilion of the Wudao Sect.

Communicating with artifacts is a very common phenomenon in the world of cultivators.

Especially the swords wielded by sword cultivators are most likely to possess spirit.

The more spiritual energy a weapon possesses, the greater its power.

Bai Ze continued, "That Lian Tian Lu is what that Medicine God condensed from a piece of heaven and earth."

"

Not only does it contain various herbs, but it is also definitely often used by the Medicine God to refine medicine, thus giving birth to its spirituality. Over time, it has taken another step and become a demon!

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yun finally understood Bai Ze's meaning: "You mean that the Supreme Ancestor is actually the spiritual essence of the Refining Heaven Furnace?"

"Well, I see what you mean! But there should still be some difference, because if he were truly just a pure spirit, I would definitely be able to sense it."

"Jiang Yun couldn't help but shake his head again and said, "Bai Ze, it's not that I don't believe you. Listen to what you're saying, you can't even make it logically sound."

One moment he was said to be unlike any human, the next a half-human, half-demon, then a spirit weapon, and now this? He wasn't a pure spirit weapon after all...

Bai Ze also said a little dejectedly, "It's not that I can't make up a story for myself, it's that his situation is too special. You wait for me to think about it carefully and then I'll tell you."

Whatever you say, he’s definitely not human. So let me remind you, whatever he asks you to do, think it through carefully. Perhaps his true purpose isn't to release your godfather!

Jiang Yun fell silent.

Although he always disagreed with Bai Ze's words, deep down he knew Bai Ze wouldn't lie to him.

He truly suspected the Supreme Ancestor, which is why he kindly reminded himself.

However, Jiang Yun was still a little unconvinced. If the Supreme Ancestor really was the spirit of the Heavenly Refining Furnace, then over so many years, wouldn't anyone from the Yaosheng Sect have discovered it?

Besides, even if he were a demon, all he did was to bring the Heaven-Refining Furnace back into the world with his words and actions.

This matter seems like it wouldn't harm oneself.

Just then, a gust of wind arose, and beside Jiang Yun appeared a middle-aged beautiful woman. She was the head of the Yaoshhenzong, Mei Bu Gu's sister, Mei Yu Sheng!

Jiang Yun temporarily restrained all his thoughts, clasped his fist in a salute, and said: "Junior has met the Sect Master!"

Mei Yusheng nodded expressionlessly. "The Supreme Ancestor has already told me, I will now lead you into Lu Feng's inner."

As soon as she spoke, Mei Yu Sheng raised her hand and with a gentle wave, a beam of light suddenly surged from under Jiang Yun's feet, enveloping his body and pulling him directly into the Lu Feng.

Then, Ginger Cloud felt a sudden emptiness beneath her feet. It was as if she had become a stone falling from a great height, plummeting downwards incessantly.

After nearly half an hour of falling, his feet finally landed on the ground.

As soon as his form was stable, Jiang Yun turned his head and looked around.

At first glance, although Ginger Cloud's face remained unchanged, his tone suddenly turned cold as he said: "I wonder what the Sect Master's intention is for bringing me here?"

At this moment, the place he was in was a formation!

Given his mastery of battle formations, it's not hard to guess that this formation is extremely complex. I can't break through it in a short time.

Mei Yu Sheng did not speak, but after gazing at Jiang Yun for a moment, she finally opened her mouth and said, “You first stole the technique of activating medicinal properties, and later obtained the complete inheritance of my Ya Shen Sect. You think I would just let you leave like this?”

As for Mei Yu Sheng's intentions, Jiang Yun knew very well and coldly said: "The complete inheritance of the Medicine God was what my foster father exchanged for his freedom. It is also a rule of your sect that I seem to have done nothing wrong!"

Mei Yu Sheng shook her head and said, "The only thing you did wrong was to come to my Yaoshengzong!"

"Jiang Yun said without any fear, “I don't know about that. How does the Sect Master plan to deal with Jiang Mou? Will you use torture to extract the complete inheritance from me, or some soul-searching method?”

Although Jiang Yun knew that Mei Yushan wouldn't let him off, he was fearless because he had a mission entrusted to him by the Supreme Ancestor.

Even if Mei Yu Sheng is not important to her father, she would absolutely not dare to ignore the Tai Shang Patriarch. Therefore, she wouldn't dare to kill herself!

Indeed, Mei Yusheng smiled faintly and said: "My sect and the Wudao Sect have a pretty good relationship, and besides, with the support of your supreme ancestor behind you, I certainly wouldn't search your soul or kill you."

"If you don't speak the full inheritance, then from now on, you will only ever remain here."

"I know you understand formations as well, but the formation you're currently in is my Yaosh Shenzong's protective sect formation."

Don't even mention it, not even the top array master in the world of mountains and seas could break it open in just a few decades.

As for brute force, let me tell you, I'm not underestimating you. Even if you had a hundred years, you wouldn't be able to do it!

Moreover, I have not disobeyed the orders of the Patriarch. Above your head is the Heavenly Crucible.

"Alright, just take your time to think it over here. Whenever you figure it out, just shout and I'll send someone over!"

"Don't expect anyone to come save you, except me. No one else knows you're here!"

After uttering those words, Mei Yusheng's figure vanished abruptly, leaving only Jiang Yun alone, standing within the protective formation of Yaoshenszong!
