Olivia mentioned that Whisper Valley is one of them, and their sect's residence has a large amount of Tianxin grass.
This is also the main herb lacking in the new medicine Amelia wants to concoct!
"Demons with psychic abilities."
Olivia's simple words caused a change in the expressions of everyone at Blackwood.
In this world, there are those with demonic psychic abilities, who often differ from ordinary psychics. In their quest for rapid cultivation of psychic powers, their methods often harm the natural order.
Some use human blood as a sacrifice, or even use humans as cauldrons to cultivate their psychic powers.
This is akin to cannibalism, the raw and unrefined kind, similar to eating human brains raw. Such methods of cultivating psychic powers, as Ethan knows, can lead to diseases just like cannibalism does, making them become mad, irritable, bloodthirsty, and greedy.
They can be considered psychics who are constantly high on drugs.
"I got the news from the Rodriguez family; the small sect we were interested in was already claimed by others."
Olivia continued, "The scene retained the unique aura of those with demonic psychic abilities, and their methods were unorthodox. They are extremely cunning, taking advantage of the major sects' war to achieve their goals and then disappearing without a trace."
"My Tianxin grass!"
Amelia knew well that once the Tianxin grass fell into the hands of those with demonic psychic abilities, it would be hard to retrieve, and she immediately felt disheartened.
Just then.
A guard from Blackwood's affiliated Black Blood Hall hurriedly came to report, especially since he was holding a token that made everyone at Blackwood's expressions suddenly become solemn.
A token from the Sky Sect!
Nathan took the token, and a white light entered his mind.
It was a message left by a master of the Sky Sect within the token.
In just a moment, Nathan's eyes narrowed.
"There's news about the Tianxin grass."
...
[Special Event]
[Disaster Caused by Demonic Psychic Abilities]
[Due to the war between two major sects, the masters of the Sky Sect couldn't attend to the mundane matters of Tranquil City. Hearing about the chaos caused by those with demonic psychic abilities, the disciples of the sect have descended the mountain to train and sincerely invite masters from all forces to help the Sky Sect eliminate the demons!]
After receiving the command from the Sky Sect, Nathan went to report at the Forebearer's shrine.
Ethan also saw the information.
"Eliminating demons and defending the path, huh?"
It's kind of interesting to talk about it, sects like the Sky Sect and the Xuanwu Sect, each claiming to be reputable and orthodox.
But look at how many lives are lost when they open ancient tombs?
The two sects fight every so often, stirring up storms.
But to say they are bad...
As soon as the matter of those with demonic psychic abilities harming others came out, they became quite self-aware.
While pondering, Nathan had already knelt down to worship, "Forebearer, I bid you farewell on this journey. Next year at the grand ceremony, your child can only offer incense to our ancestors from afar!"
With these words.
The people of Blackwood were stunned.
Ethan also frowned, listening to Nathan's words, it seemed he was going to participate in this mission to eliminate those with demonic psychic abilities. S~eaʀᴄh the NôvelFire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
Then small characters appeared above Nathan's head.
"The disciples of the Sky Sect have found the location of those with demonic psychic abilities in the Thunderfire Demon Cave! If the temple's guardian beast is to transform, it needs the heavenly thunder and earthly fire from within the Thunderfire Demon Cave!"
No wonder Nathan got involved in this matter.
Ethan was also somewhat tempted.
The Purple Thunder Solar Python wants to advance to the rank of Demon King, and heavenly thunder and earthly fire are one of the conditions!
But...
The location of this mission is very far, not a day's work. It's already difficult to eliminate demons, and the disciples of the Sky Sect who come to train are just novices, not even knowing the specific numbers and strengths of those with demonic psychic abilities, making the danger level very high.
"Enough!" Suddenly, Amelia, who was usually quiet, raised her voice, silencing everyone.
Feeling everyone's gaze, Amelia ruffled her messy hair, her dirty face breaking into a smile, her bright white teeth more evident. "Dad, you really shouldn't go. Big brother is right, over the years, it's always been you and sister four showing your faces. The families we control in secret only recognize you. If you're away for too long, chaos will ensue."
"Mom definitely can't go either. With your demonic cultivation, it's just not convenient."
Glancing at her elder brother, whose expression had softened, Amelia said, "Big brother, you shouldn't go either."
"Hmm?" Lucas furrowed his brows.
"The plans set by sister four involve the Black Blood Hall, and you're the most familiar with its people. Besides, you can't expect dad to be running around with the Black Blood Hall, can you?"
As she finished speaking, she looked towards Julian, who by now was standing tall and proud.
Amelia rolled her eyes, "Third brother..."
"You have seven children, they're not grown up yet. Do you want to come back and have them not recognize you? And the Forge Hall, after all these years, you're the only psychic equipment craftsman. Everyone at home is waiting for you to produce top-quality psychic equipment."
Her words hit Julian right where it hurt.
All eyes were on Amelia.
"Second sister, are you going?" Olivia looked troubled. Everyone in the family was volunteering, yet she, with no cultivation, could only watch helplessly as her family faced danger.
Whenever this happened, she questioned whether the path she had chosen was the right one.
"What? You look down on your second sister?"
Amelia joked, her usually carefree face suddenly turning serious as she looked at her many relatives. "I'm the most suitable one to go. I can't make medicines anymore. My psychic medicine garden has fifteen apprentices who can prepare ordinary potions, and I've raised a ninth-grade pharmacist from childhood, which is enough to meet the family's needs."
"Amelia..."
Nathan wanted to persuade her.
But Amelia cut him off, "Father, you know, I'm not as capable as you, but with potions and some new skills I've acquired recently, surviving won't be a problem."
"In terms of intelligence, I'm not as good as you all... except for the third brother. But having experienced so much over the years, I understand how to deal with outsiders."
"Especially being a woman, outsiders will underestimate me, which is the best disguise."
"Besides..."
"I'm not foolish. My goal is to find the demon cave and investigate the situation with the heavenly thunder and earthly fire, not to court death. If I encounter danger, won't I run? Those demon-possessed psychics even stole my Tianxin grass, I have to avenge that too!"
With sound reasoning, the people of Blackwood were left speechless.
Amelia then bowed deeply to the Forebearer's cards, her voice firm:
"Please, Forebearer, allow your child to undertake this great task!"
[Good.]
Ethan silently clicked on the icon of the Purple Thunder Solar Python, Amelia had convinced him.
