according to her original plan, starting to push the development of the entire beast world. The three followers beside her became her loyal executors, gradually influencing the surrounding beasts.Esp...The millstone was playing games and slacking off when it heard the sound of ripples. It immediately closed the game interface, and asked seriously:

"Tasker, are you sure it's demonic energy"

"Confirmed, and it has already been pulled out by my divine power."

"One moment, please. I need to contact Qinxin and check the status of this interface."

The stone mill immediately said.

Ok, I'll wait for your reply.

The ripples didn't urge the millstone, after all, she wasn't the principal officer in this joint mission.

Liri, riding her silver steed, pondered the matter.

In the world of cultivation, demonic qi is also a dangerous existence. At the beginning of the heavens and earth, chaos gave birth to two types of qi: pure and turbid. Pure qi rose, and turbid qi descended, thus forming spiritual qi and demonic qi. These two types of qi can both be cultivated by people to strengthen themselves.

But I don't know from what time on, cultivators who go astray in their practice will develop this gray demonic aura. If it's not cleaned up in time, it's like a maggot in the bone, growing stronger with the cultivator's cultivation, and ultimately leading them to complete loss of self, becoming a puppet controlled by the demonic aura.

And once a cultivator's mind and spirit are completely lost, they become a monster that only knows how to kill. They continuously create slaughter, absorb souls, and strengthen themselves until the entire cultivation world is destroyed.

As the spearhead of Kunlun Xianzong's combat power, she had previously clashed with such demonic cultivators. Her Lei Linggen gave her a natural advantage, as demonic energy could not get close to her.

Finally, she expended a great deal of effort to slay this Nascent Soul stage cultivator under her Lei Yao Sword. At that time, she was only in the middle stage of Nascent Soul, which shows how difficult these demonic cultivators are to deal with.

Now that demonic aura has been discovered in this magical continent, Ripples is highly alert. She believes the problems with the fantasy beast space are related to this demonic aura, so she wants to visit this young man's home to ask him about it in detail.

The other stone mill had quickly contacted Qinxing and told them about Lianri's discovery.

"Stone Grinder, your task is as follows"

Qinxīn was also a little surprised.

"Yes, she comes from the Cultivation Realm, and she is a successful Great Ascension Ancestor. The ripples' sensing must be right, I believe in her judgment."

The millstone staunchly supports its taskmaster.

If it's demonic energy, they're in for some trouble this time, especially since they don't know where Bai Feng is.

Even her heartwarming brows furrowed.

"Qinxin Sister, in the background of the mission you received, was there any mention of demonic energy"

"No, if there was one, I wouldn't take it. It's not that I'm afraid, but Bai Feng's abilities are limited and he isn't capable of completing such a task."

"At least this time I'm partnered with your tasker, otherwise I would be applying to terminate the mission right now."

Qinxin was also a little helpless.

"Well, in that case, I'll tell Ripple to be more careful when she's tracking down the source. She doesn't need to apply for a mission termination for now. She hasn't made a mistake since she started taking missions, except for that one time when a transmission channel malfunctioned and she accidentally entered your Tasker interface. I have confidence in her."

Despite herself, there was a touch of pride in her heart.

"Okay, you stay in contact with the tasker at all times. If there are any problems, let me know. If it absolutely can't be done, I will apply for termination. At worst, the tasker's level will regress, and their soul won't be harmed."

Qinxīn considers this way, also starting from the actual situation.

Understood!

After breaking off contact with Qinyin, Shiju turned to Lianyi and told her what had happened.

"Ripple, you still need to be careful."

"I understand."

"If you need support, please contact me anytime."

The millstone, still uneasy, added one more sentence before breaking off the connection.

By now, the ripples of news had reached Mark's village. As he walked, people greeted him and inquired about whether his beast companion had been recovered. It was clear that everyone knew about Mark's dire situation with his raging bullbeast.

"Thanks to several young masters and ladies who helped me subdue Ah Man, I invite you all to my home as guests."

Mark smiled and explained to the inquiring villagers, then quickened his pace. When he got home, Mark's parents came out to greet him. At a glance, they looked like humble commoners, warmly welcoming Ripples and her three companions into their stone house.

After the food and tea had been served, Mark said sheepishly:

"Please, have some food. It's a bit simple, so please don't mind."

Ripple, however, didn't care about these things. After having a meal of coarse grain rice at the farmer's house, she got straight to the point.

"Mark, summon your Minotaur for me. I want to take a closer look."

"Okay, Young Master Lian!"

Mark nodded immediately, he also wanted to confirm that his beast companion was alright.

On the other side, Lyra also silently put down the wooden teacup in her hand, wanting to see how Lian would handle it.

Mark released his bull beast, circling around his Aman and making sure Aman had a gentle temperament. Then he looked towards Young Master Lian.

When it came to dealing with the beast, ripples took a more straightforward approach. She drew out her silver lotus magic staff and lightly touched it to the ground. A six-pointed magic array appeared beneath the Bull Beast's feet. The next second, her divine sense enveloped the entire Bull Beast, piercing into its core.

Aman felt threatened, and she stamped her hooves impatiently, pointing her horns at Ripple. But she hesitated to charge.

"Aman, don't move! Young Master Lian is checking your body!"

Mark said nervously.

While Lianyi's expression remained unchanged, a thousand alpacas were galloping through her heart. Things were unfolding in the worst way she could have imagined.

Because Lian Yi's powerful divine sense invaded the beast core, he discovered that the problem was a phantom beast. The beast core of the wild ox contained a trace of demonic energy, which was churning inside. Sensing Lian Yi's divine sense, it immediately shrank towards the core of the beast core.

Now it's confirmed, the demonic energy within Mark should have been transferred from the phantom beast. After all, a phantom beast's growth relies on its master's cultivation, making their relationship the closest and most suitable host for demonic energy to reside in.

Having confirmed her guess, Ripple decided to take decisive action. She transformed her spiritual energy into a needle and directly pierced the beast's core. This time, her objective was to strangle the fallen demonic aura.

At the same time, she once again touched the ground with her magic wand. The previous magic formation immediately changed from a confining formation to a thunder formation. As the formation unfolded, the sky was instantly overcast with dark clouds. The next second, a bolt of purple lightning fell directly onto the rhinoceros beast's head, knocking it to the ground and letting out a miserable howl.

Mark was stunned, wanting to rush forward to rescue his phantom beast, but La Ye effortlessly held him back.

Don't go up and cause trouble, Young Master is helping your beast.

After Laye finished speaking, she focused all her attention on Young Master Lian.

Leia and Grey both took two steps back, their eyes widening as they stared at the ripples. This wasn't the skill of a mage apprentice. Summoning an aggressive lightning array and drawing upon elemental power clearly indicated that Lian was already a mid-level mage.

"Miss, look at the top of that rhinoceros." Lelia."Alright, you decide then."Rhodeman felt his youngest son had grown, not just in physical strength but also in character. This made him very happy.As Rhodeman was about to say something else, t...
