If it was possible, they really did not want to acknowledge Cultivation Priest Zhou Yong as their master any longer.
They could hardly believe the situation had come to this. It was truly a pity.
Taking a deep breath, the three old men worked together to open the entrance to the mystic realm, and Jiang Ming also released the bearded old man's enchantment.
Without the barrier, the bearded old man was much happier. He was jumping around like a child.
Jiang Ming entered the mystic realm.
The sky in the mystic realm was black, dark, and empty. Occasionally, lightning would strike.
It was different from the mystic realm he had entered before. The place he entered was completely barren.
The surrounding wind blew past, bringing along some fine dust.
Jiang Ming felt that he would not be able to breathe properly if he stayed there. He quickly released his folding fan to block the sandstorm.
"Water… Water..."
At this moment, a weak voice entered his ears. He turned to look at the source of the voice.
A man lay on the ground with his face sallow. He looked as if he had been squeezed dry, and he was just skin and bones.
Jiang Ming walked to him and looked down to check on him.
When he approached the man, the man opened his eyes in an instant and bit Jiang Ming's neck.
Jiang Ming quickly hit the person with his folding fan. The person grimaced in pain and jumped up.
"Are you Yu Yunlong?"
Jiang Ming could not help but ask when he remembered what he had heard before and saw the purple skin exposed when the person in front of him jumped up.
Hearing Jiang Ming's words, the man was dumbfounded. He looked at Jiang Ming curiously and said, "How do you know that my name is Yu Yunlong?"
"Perfect. I've been waiting for you for a long time."
When Jiang Ming saw that the monster had been found, he started to agitate Yu Yunlong.
Yu Yunlong felt that he could not open his eyes at all. He tried hard to open his eyes and saw Jiang Ming standing in front of him.
"Damn it!"
He panicked and grabbed at Jiang Ming. His hand suddenly turned into a claw.
Jiang Ming saw it clearly. He immediately dodged the attack and kicked Yu Yunlong's abdomen.
Yu Yunlong felt a sharp pain and had no choice but to retreat.
"Why are my eyes burning?"
Yu Yunlong was dumbfounded. He was on the verge of breaking down. He covered his eyes. There were tears streaming down his face.
This was the first time he had experienced such pain.
He was a monster; how could he be treated like this?
Seeing Yu Yunlong's confused look, Jiang Ming did not want to say too much. Instead, he went straight to the point. "Yu Yunlong, hand over the long cape grass, and I won't touch you."
"Long cape grass?"
Yu Yunlong exploded.
He knew what the long cape grass Jiang Ming was talking about was, but he also knew that the long cape grass was a plant that was with him.
"Yes, I know that the long cape grass is in your stomach. Don't worry, nothing will happen to you."
Jiang Ming felt that Yu Yunlong was worried about his life, so he reassured Yu Yunlong.
Yu Yunlong was speechless. "Why should I give you the long cape grass? What benefits do I get from giving you the long cape grass? You're quite naive."
Jiang Ming was stunned. Then, he said, "If you don't give it to me, I can only snatch it away. I hope you don't blame me."
Upon hearing Jiang Ming's words, Yu Yunlong felt that he was being unreasonable. "Why should you have the right to take my things?"
He rushed to the front and wanted to claw out Jiang Ming's heart, but he was pushed back by Jiang Ming with the same move.
Yu Yunlong was unwilling to give up and continued to move forward. He wanted to transfer his power to Jiang Ming, but it still ended the same way.
He went up again.
After repeating this process, not only did Yu Yunlong fail to gain any benefits, but he also failed to achieve his goal. He was also exhausted and was panting heavily.
On the other hand, Jiang Ming was fine. His expression did not change, and he did not feel tired at all.
"Hey, why aren't you reacting at all?" Yu Yunlong asked curiously. "What the hell are you?"
Hearing this innocent question, Jiang Ming could not bear to snatch the long cape grass. He immediately replied, "You don't have to worry about this. I'll still say the same thing. Hand over the long cape grass, and I'll let you go."
Seeing how stubborn Jiang Ming was, Yu Yunlong knew that he could not beat Jiang Ming. He nodded repeatedly. "Alright, I'll give you the long cape grass now."
He could not take out the long cape grass himself. Yu Yunlong put on a show by placing his hand on his stomach, and a stalk of grass immediately appeared in his stomach.
However, Jiang Ming saw through his tricks. "This isn't long cape grass at all. Give me the real long cape grass."
Yu Yunlong did not expect Jiang Ming to see through him. He felt strange, but he still tried to convince Jiang Ming on the surface. "This is really long cape grass. I'm the only one who has seen long cape grass. You have to believe me."
He was spouting nonsense and did not realize that Jiang Ming knew better.
However, Jiang Ming did not fall for Yu Yunlong's trick at all. He continued, "I don't have time to waste with you. I advise you to be more sensible."
Hearing this, Yu Yunlong raised an eyebrow and turned to leave.
He really did not want to give up the long cape grass, and he could not beat Jiang Ming, so it was better for him to run away now.
Unfortunately, Yu Yunlong's actions were noticed by Jiang Ming. Jiang Ming knew that he could not pity the person in front of him anymore, so he grabbed Yu Yunlong's neck and pulled him over.
Yu Yunlong did not expect Jiang Ming to grab his neck. He started running wildly.
However, this was of no use to him at all.
Yu Yunlong's hands and feet were trembling as he watched Jiang Ming take out a piece of long cape grass from his heart.
Yu Yunlong felt that something was missing in his heart. The pain intensified, and he almost fainted.
Jiang Ming also knew that it was because of the long cape grass. He took out a silver needle and started to treat Yu Yunlong.
He inserted the needles into Yu Yunlong's heart one by one. First, he relaxed Yu Yunlong's meridians and then strengthened Yu Yunlong's original heart.
It was also after this treatment that Jiang Ming realized that Yu Yunlong's heart was no longer beating because it was occupied by the long cape grass.
No wonder Yu Yunlong was in so much pain.
Yu Yunlong felt refreshed. He smiled happily. "I feel like I've been reborn."
Jiang Ming could not help but laugh when he saw Yu Yunlong's childlike appearance. He put the long cape grass back into a bottle.
He had to hurry back now. Everyone needed him.
