Transmigrated into a heretical cultivator, leading all the villains to ascension.

Chapter 283 Lin Zhipeng's Death

Gao Huohuo walked slowly along the path of the Shadow Sect. The scenery around him was clearly familiar, yet it felt strangely unfamiliar.

These pavilions, towers, and every tree seemed shrouded in a hazy veil, making her feel as if someone else had lived here back then.

But her memory stubbornly told her that the person was herself.

"Lan Lie, has the Shadow Sect changed much in recent years?" she asked softly.

Lan Lie paused slightly, his eyes flickering.

The Shadow Sect hasn't changed much, but everything about Gao Huohuo has changed beyond recognition.

"Senior Sister Gao, she's just so-so," he said vaguely.

Arriving at a guest room, Gao Huohuo frowned:

"I remember having my own cave dwelling before, why did you bring me here?"

Lan Lie lowered his head, feeling a little guilty, as he was currently living in that cave dwelling.

"Senior Sister Gao, you haven't returned for many years. That cave dwelling has already been given to someone else."

Gao Huohuo's gaze swept across Lan Lie's face like lightning, and he immediately understood.

After Lan Lie left, the Ghost Blood Vine quietly wrapped around her wrist, bringing a message.

She looked down at the suddenly appearing demonic plant, puzzled.

She didn't remember when she had made a contract with such an existence, but the mark on her soul was real.

Besides these, she also had a sword, a long whip, a spiked club, and a pair of large iron hammers, but not the weapons she used before.

"It seems that too much has happened in these thirty years..." she murmured to herself.

Now, the memories are fragmented, with only the past of the Shadow Sect and fragments of what happened after the escape.

As for how they escaped and what they went through, it's all shrouded in mystery.

She wasn't surprised by the news that Ghost Blood Vine had just heard.

It seems like this has happened before.

The next morning, when she appeared safely before everyone, some people's expressions suddenly became quite interesting.

Gao Huohuo ignored him and went straight to Lin Zhipeng to ask about the current situation of the forces of good and evil.

"Rampaging with evil spirits?" Gao Huohuo thought of the monster he had seen on the way back.

However, the spirits seemed to be terrified of her and dared not approach.

"Sect Master, now that I'm back, I should do my part to eliminate demons and protect the righteous path."

A glint flashed in Lin Zhipeng's eyes; this was exactly what he wanted.

"Alright! I'll take you to the league to report today."

Shadow Moon Faction.

"Master!" Su Mo excitedly held up a magical artifact.

"The tracking device that my fifth junior brother and I developed shows that our junior sister is nearby!"

The people inside the hall immediately beamed with joy.

Zhao Feiyue asked impatiently, "Is Junior Sister on her way back?"

"Quickly notify Third Senior Sister and the others!" Lin Qingxue hurriedly reminded them.

The news quickly reached the Demon Clan, and the four people searching for Gao Huohuo immediately set off to return.

The Shadow Moon Sect sent Mu Hanxing to greet them.

However, when Mu Hanxing arrived, she only saw an empty guest room—Gao Huohuo had left with Lin Zhipeng long ago.

At this moment, Gao Huohuo and Lin Zhipeng were flying towards the Alliance on their swords, and the surrounding scenery was becoming increasingly desolate.

She frowned slightly: "Sect Master, where exactly is the alliance?"

Lin Zhipeng's smile remained unchanged: "Huohuo, don't worry, we'll be there soon."

"These days, spirits are everywhere, and the Alliance can only be stationed in remote areas."

In a battle between two armies, shouldn't the command post be located near the battlefield? How can it be placed in such a remote location?

But the next moment, Gao Huohuo belatedly realized what was happening.

Why would she say such a thing? But it seems quite normal for her to say it.

"Huo Huo has arrived. You go ahead, I'll be right there."

Hearing Lin Zhipeng's words, Gao Huohuo became wary of the desolate valley in front of her, but she still stepped forward.

The moment her toes touched the ground, a familiar feeling of confinement washed over her, and she knew she was trapped in a barrier.

"Gao Huohuo!" Lin Zhipeng's voice suddenly rose, "You demonic cultivator, why don't you surrender?"

Upon hearing Lin Zhipeng's seemingly righteous accusation, Gao Huohuo's lips curled into a cold smile.

With a barrier of this level, you think you can trap her?

However, she wanted to see what tricks Lin Zhipeng was up to, so she didn't make a move.

"Sect Master, this is the alliance you spoke of? So you're in cahoots with us!"

You think that by labeling me a demonic cultivator, I'll be at your mercy?

Lin Zhipeng felt a shiver run down his spine under her sharp gaze, but he forced himself to shout:

"Since I can cripple you once, I can cripple you a second time. This time, I will never let you go back alive."

A second time? A cold glint flashed in Gao Huohuo's eyes.

No wonder the cave dwelling changed hands; it was all thanks to this sect leader.

Since that's the case, she will definitely not show any mercy.

"Lin Zhipeng, now that things have come to this, call out your men and let's see who will die here today."

"Hmph, stop trying to be mysterious. You're at the Integration Stage, and so am I. Do you think the five of us at the Integration Stage can't beat you alone?"

"Fusion Stage?" Gao Huohuo chuckled, gathering immense spiritual power in his palm. "Who told you I'm in the Fusion Stage?"

In a daze, some fragments flashed through her mind.

In the dimly lit barrier, time seemed to stand still as she used her fingernail to carve the first mark on the stone wall.

Every year thereafter, she would add a new mark in the same spot.

Thirty deep and shallow carvings, like thirty wounds that never heal, record her days and nights of isolation from the world.

Cultivation became her only way out.

Whenever her spiritual energy was depleted, she would stare blankly at the engravings.

Now that the pressure of the Mahayana stage was suddenly released, Lin Zhipeng and the other four's expressions changed drastically, and they turned to flee.

With a flick of her wrist, Gao Huohuo sent the five people tumbling into a quagmire.

"Lin Zhipeng, it's probably too late to leave now."

After saying that, the Ghost Blood Vine on his wrist began to climb up the bodies of the five people.

Before long, the five Nascent Soul stage cultivators were drained of their life force and turned into dried corpses. Gao Huohuo then casually set them on fire and burned them.

"When did the Wood Spirit Princess of the Demon Clan come to human territory?"

The sudden sound made Gao Huohuo pause.

Princess Wood Spirit? Gao Huohuo didn't understand why the newcomer called her that. Could it be that she had been to the demon realm before?

Seeing the Ghost Blood Vine on his wrist, Gao Huohuo had some guesses in his mind.

So he asked, "Are you from the demon race?"

"Fox Clan's Illusionary Night," the newcomer revealed himself, "Does Princess Wood Spirit wish to return to the Demon Clan?"

Realizing she couldn't return to the Shadow Sect and didn't want to go to the Demon Clan anymore, she decided to go to the Monster Clan instead.

As for the human spirits, Gao Huohuo didn't find them particularly terrifying.

After all, these evil spirits couldn't even get close to her, so the cultivators must have a way.

"That's exactly what I was thinking. Since we're all going the same way, let's go together!" Gao Huohuo said.

The main problem is that she doesn't remember how to get to the demon realm, so she has to travel with others.

Huan Ye bowed respectfully: "It is my honor to serve Your Highness."

After saying that, Gao Huohuo sat down on Huan Ye's spirit beast without any hesitation.

Huan Ye glanced at the Ghost Blood Vine on her wrist, then at her face, and hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but couldn't.

"Is there a problem?" Gao Huohuo raised an eyebrow.
