The scene where Shen Wang stood in the air further astonished everyone.

They thought that Shen Wang might have become a true disciple because of his master.

Now it seems that he indeed has the qualifications to become a true inheritor, even without his master.

Everyone was convinced, and no one dared to question Shen Wang's identity and strength anymore.

Yun Lingshu, seeing Shen Wang in the limelight, teased him, "That should be enough, come over here, I'll assign you a task."

Shen Wang turned and left to take on part of the defense task.

Han Wan'Er stood alone for a moment and did not go over just then.

Meanwhile, Shen Wang and Yun Lingshu landed on a high platform on the mountain, from where they could overlook most of the surrounding area and thus control the battlefield.

"Since you've been in this Geng Chou Region, you might as well be responsible for this defense area; you'll have ten Foundation Establishment level disciples under your command."

Yun Lingshu pointed at several defense lines below the platform, "You know Yi Feng, and you can get acquainted with the others."

Shen Wang spent the time of a stick of incense getting familiar with the area he was responsible for, and could then rest in the adjacent room when nothing was happening.

As long as the Demon Beast army didn't attack from the sky or break through the frontal array, he wouldn't need to take action, which was much more relaxed than being on the front line.

"I'm in the defense area next to yours, let me know if anything happens."

Seeing that Shen Wang was familiar with the situation, Yun Lingshu also took him to receive the true disciple's identity token, artifact level clothing, and related items, and Shen Wang also obtained a cave mansion in the main vein.

After Shen Wang's clone settled down, Shen Wang's main body also settled atop the cloud sea of the main vein's mountain.

The people of the Celestial Travel Sect quickly set up a small wooden building for Shen Wang with arrays, not competing with Shen Wang for control of the arrays, but instead handing over the arrays of this area to Shen Wang's guard, indicating their trust.

But Shen Wang knew someone was always secretly watching, and if he dared to rashly open the arrays, a strong force would immediately come to stop him.

Shen Wang didn't mind those lurking in the dark, and at this moment his thoughts turned to the Tai Chi Yin Yang Mirror.

Black and white qi transformed into his incarnation, appearing before the anxious Mr. and Mrs. Liu Shan.

Seeing Shen Wang, Liu Shan exclaimed with joy, "Master, it's really you."

They were overjoyed, as they hadn't expected Shen Wang to come looking for them.

"You're lucky, I happened to be passing by and rescued you in passing."

Shen Wang said, "Now I need to understand your situation."

He began to inquire, and this time he chose to make such a big effort, apart from coincidentally encountering Yun Lingshu, he indeed intended to take seriously the matters concerning Mr. and Mrs. Liu Shan and the demonic aura.

Although he no longer managed the demon cave suppressed by the Shen Family, he felt that this thing would surely become a calamity in the future; it's entirely possible for demons to come from that place.

Once that kind of thing appears, the threat to the Human Race is likely far more terrifying than this Demon Beast army, so he best prepares early, just in case.

Mr. and Mrs. Liu Shan were his channel to advance understanding of the demon creatures, which was why he was willing to take the risk to do today's deed.

From their words, Shen Wang learned about what happened after Mr. and Mrs. Liu Shan returned home for a visit.

When they initially went back, nothing had happened in the village. Later, the demonic aura likely spread over, causing problems among the beings in the village, and thus demonization occurred.

Ordinary beings probably couldn't withstand the influence of demonic aura and went insane one after another. Although Mr. and Mrs. Liu Shan were fine, strange scales appeared on them due to a mutation.

Though their strength and cultivation speed improved, they didn't have much time to appreciate it due to the mishaps happening to the villagers and strived to save people.

Before finding a solution, they encountered people from the Celestial Travel Sect, who then captured them for study here.

Lastly, Shen Wang discovered that Liu Shan's wife, Hongping, was pregnant.

Upon inquiry, Shen Wang learned that the Celestial Travel Sect forced this situation to observe the offspring under the influence of demonic aura.

And how this side of the Celestial Travel Sect managed demonic aura, Mr. and Mrs. Liu Shan had no knowledge.

Having said enough, Liu Shan uneasily said, "Master, with our current odd appearances, could we be mistaken for demons and killed if we go outside?"

"It's possible."

Shen Wang nodded.

Liu Shan was hoping for some comforting words but got confirmation instead, making the moment a little awkward.

"Rest assured, in their eyes, you're a treasure now, nothing will happen for the time being."

Shen Wang said, "I heard you were cultivating demon techniques?"

Liu Shan awkwardly nodded, "They gave us a new cultivation technique, seems like a demon technique, absorbing demonic aura to cultivate is quite convenient."

"Let me see the cultivation technique."

Shen Wang was somewhat curious.

Liu Shan took out an ancient-looking booklet.

Shen Wang took it and leafed through it; it was a cultivation technique called True Demon Technique, with the word 'demon' prominently in the name.

Its cultivation method was peculiar, directly making the flesh devour demonic aura, simultaneously condensing a demon seed at the heart, starkly different from the orthodox cultivation methods.

But the overall principle of cultivation was similar, just more focused on the physical body; presumably, a true demon creature must have a powerful body.

"This is likely something they copied from somewhere; continue cultivating, I'll go have a talk with them."

Shen Wang tossed the demon technique back.

Liu Shan's wife asked, "Master, what about our child, does he show signs of demonization?"

"Demonization?"

Shen Wang understood it referred to the condition of Mr. and Mrs. Liu Shan, shaking his head, "He hasn't been exposed to demonic aura, so naturally, there's no demonization."

"That's good, please don't let him be seen, else he might be captured for research."

Liu Shan said helplessly.

"With me around, that won't happen."

Shen Wang promised, then dispersed into Yin and Yang qi.

"The two have undergone deep demonization, unlikely to revert at this point; letting them continue absorbing demonic aura to cultivate is probably better, else it might cause problems."

Shen Wang muttered.

He was about to find Celestial Cloud True Monarch for a talk, but the latter came over.

"Fellow Daoist Wu Xing, may I come in for a bit?"

Shen Wang figured the visit was likely about Mr. and Mrs. Liu Shan and said, "Of course."

The visitor walked in, saying, "You must have talked with Mr. and Mrs. Liu Shan?"

"Yes, I did, I'm very curious about where you got that demon technique?" Shen Wang nodded.

"It was left over from ancient times."

Celestial Cloud True Monarch held a long block resembling metal in his hand, palm-sized, entirely black, covered with strange purple characters, emitting an eerie aura.

"This is the original form of the demon technique, inscribed with demon language, fully titled Purple Extreme True Demon Technique. It's said that this demon technique is top-notch among the Demon Race, allowing Mr. and Mrs. Liu Shan to cultivate it is their fortune."

Celestial Cloud True Monarch smiled, implying that what had been done was a good thing for Mr. and Mrs. Liu Shan.

Shen Wang nonchalantly said, "With such thorough research, aren't you all cultivating it too?"

Celestial Cloud True Monarch awkwardly replied, "Complete cultivation isn't possible, at most borrowing some ideas; after all, the grand way is vast, all paths lead to the same goal."

"You haven't said how it was obtained." Shen Wang frowned.

"This involves the Shen Family, to which your disciple belongs, and the history of the demon cave suppressed by the Celestial Travel Sect."
