Walking alone with a sword, slaying ghosts and gods

Chapter 419 I want to stop killing good Taoists (Please subscribe!)
In the General Affairs Hall of Taiqing Sect, Lu Cheng was standing under a green stone wall, staring at the rows of moving words on it. The words would even gradually slow down or even stop because of the gaze of the observing monks.

Although he had been in seclusion for many years of cultivation, at least in his spare time, Lu Cheng would still go to the General Affairs Hall to take on various sect tasks such as collecting materials, drawing talismans, refining magic weapons, and refining elixirs, in order to accumulate merits for the sect.

If it were in the mortal world, this would be called sect’s good deeds, but this model of the three sects of the human race in the earthly immortal world has been in operation for a long time and is still called sect’s merits.

"It requires 30,000 jin of Suhan Spiritual Iron, 40,000 fourth-level spiritual talismans, 7,000 fifth-level spiritual talismans, 200 sixth-level spiritual talismans, and 300 sect merits... This is a good deal."

In the sect, you may make some money by completing the sect's tasks, but the sect will definitely not lose money. After all, a single move by a high-level cultivator, whether it is refining a magic weapon or refining an elixir, can be equivalent to ten or even a hundred years of hard work by a low-level cultivator. With this gap, the more sect tasks the disciples complete, the more prosperous the Taiqing Sect will become.

For many alchemists, talisman makers, and weapon refiners, these tasks may be burdensome and may delay their practice, or even require them to make up for the loss of too many materials.

But there is no need to worry in Lucheng. He is purchasing in the Black Mountain Market/Mortal World. Even if he makes no profit or loss, he has completed the sect's mission.

Among the true disciples, especially those from aristocratic families, there are many who own several markets or even several immortal cities. However, they can never use the scissors gap to reap the mortal world like Lu Cheng. So in Lu Cheng, it is: you may make some money, but you will definitely not make as much as me.

After selecting the tasks he wanted, Lu Cheng came to an area where an old Taoist with white hair and beard was sitting there. A lamp was lit on the table, and he was reading a Taoist book.

"Elder Qian, I'll take on these tasks."

Lu Cheng waited for a moment, and when the old Taoist flipped through the book, he stepped forward and handed over the jade slip.

"Hmm? Oh, it's Lu Cheng. Why did you take on so many tasks? Young people really have ways of doing things."

This Elder Qian from the General Affairs Hall had seen Lu Cheng accept a mission many times before, so he had some understanding of him.

Every time, this young man would take on many material-related missions from the sect, and then take on a mission to go south. After completing this mission, he would return to the sect, complete all the material-related missions at the same time, and hand in the spiritual objects.

This type of cultivator is not the first to appear, and most of them have family support behind them. But no matter what, the sect will make a profit, so they do not prohibit this behavior.

After all, the Taiqing Sect's seven true teachings and fourteen branch inheritances cannot be exchanged for sect merits alone. Sect merits can be exchanged for guidance from teachers, assessments to inherit the fourteen auxiliary inheritances, high-level elixirs, magic weapons, and talismans, but these are all things that the Taiqing Sect can produce continuously.

Therefore, such behavior is tantamount to the family subsidizing the sect. How could the sect refuse?

After Lu Cheng accepted the mission and left, Elder Qian stared at the young Taoist's back with a flickering look in his eyes.

"There shouldn't be any problem. He has been practicing in seclusion on Huangyun Island for more than a hundred years. Besides being an Ascended monk with considerable skills, he has never been involved in any random activities in the mountains. The possibility that he is secretly working for other sects is too small... However, we should be cautious. Time will tell."

For a sect like the Taiqing Sect in the Earthly Immortal Realm, which was almost the number one sect of the human race back then, how could it be possible that there were no spies infiltrating?

Ancient demons, monsters, other races in the spiritual world, and even other human sects will send secret agents to the Taiqing Sect.

If the first sect of the human race at that time collapsed, it would be a big blow to the morale of the human race in the entire earthly immortal world.

Therefore, since Xuan Zhenzi took charge of the sect, he has been cautious and prudent, unwilling to take the slightest danger, so much so that many people thought that after Xuan Zhenzi became the head of the sect, his swordsmanship had been tarnished.

But the battle of exterminating the Wood Spirit Clan at Mulong Ridge more than two hundred years ago made all the forces in the Earthly Immortal Realm realize how powerful this man is: if he doesn't draw his sword, it's over, but if he draws his sword, he will kill you with one blow and will never give you a chance to counterattack.

Because of this understanding, many alien races around Taiqing Sect have been much more stable in recent years.

Many small tribes that were originally hesitant no longer dared to step forward easily.

This is how a large sect should be. They will not easily take action personally, and will let affiliated sects step in when problems arise. However, once they need to take action personally, they must resolve the trouble cleanly and efficiently. They cannot let the surrounding forces see that they are so weak that it is so difficult for them to even resolve a small force.

If that's the case, it's better not to take action. Chronic death always has room for improvement, which is better than sudden death.

Lu Cheng stepped onto a white cloud flying car. This flying car looked like a cloud, but it was not made up of clouds. It was like a water drop with a streamlined outer body.

Lu Cheng didn't buy a very good flying car, he just bought a cost-effective flying car for transportation.
Although monks can fly swords for thousands of miles, they cannot practice, read, or feast in that state. They can do that when riding in a flying car, so flying cars are better for long distance travel.

"Let's go to the Black Mountain Market first to see how many spiritual objects Yibai, Yanxiao and the others can gather for me. Then I will buy some more in the mortal world, and then go to the Wuyin Sea area in the South China Sea to detect and explore. The ground veins here are unstable, and there is a hidden spiritual energy emanating. Maybe it will be an opportunity. After returning, take the spiritual objects from the Black Mountain Market."

Before, whether he went to Mudu or Heishan, Lu Cheng had the sect's token, so he could use the sect's teleportation array for free. This time he didn't have it, and he was not in a hurry, so Lu Cheng chose to take a flying car. Except that he could not meditate for a long time, there was no difference between being in the flying car and being in the cave on weekdays.

The Baiyun Flying Car pierced through the clouds and fog, and in front of the inner city of the flying car was floating its own natal magic weapon.

The two chapters "Wind" and "Thunder" on the white jade seal were emitting a bluish-purple glow, and countless runes as thin as hair were interweaving into a web in the air, turning an area of ​​ten feet into a talisman field.

"Wind and thunder clash, and yin and yang stir." Lu Cheng gathered a little magic power on his fingertips and gently tapped the center of the "Thunder Seal".

Yin's body was suddenly covered with lightning, and nine electric python-like runes traveled along his meridians, colliding with his own Nascent Soul in the Purple Mansion, and the Qi interacted with each other.

The originally clear sky outside the flying car gradually became gloomy, and lightning flashed among the dark clouds ahead.

This strange sight caused seven figures in the clouds hundreds of miles away to raise their heads at the same time. The blood-robed old man in the lead grinned, revealing a mouthful of white teeth:

"As that gentleman said, this boy has arrived."

Seven beams of light shot up into the sky and formed a formation in each direction in the blink of an eye.

The old man in the blood-stained robe raised a huge flag, and black mist surged out of the flag; the beautiful Taoist nun on the left swung out thirty-six flying swords, and the sword bodies glowed with dark blue poisonous light; the dwarf monk on the right formed seals with his hands, and seven black flying knives formed a knife wheel in front of him.

"Get into formation!"

Following the shout of the blood-robed old man in the lead, the seven people simultaneously released their life force. The black mist instantly spread and turned into a dome covering a hundred miles, waiting to throw the White Cloud Flying Car into it.

Inside the Baiyun Flying Car, Lu Cheng, who was studying talismans, suddenly felt a little upset.

"Is this... a sudden impulse?" Lu Cheng's expression suddenly changed. Cultivators have extraordinary innate spiritual perception, so such a sudden impulse is most likely not groundless.

He opened his eyes, with a faint glow of fire in his pupils. He waved his hand to open the restriction in front of the flying car and looked into the distance.

"The Seven Killing Immortal Trap Formation, the famous siege formation of the demon sect." If it wasn't for a sudden inspiration, Lu Cheng would have been trapped in it this time.

On a whim, cultivators with high Taoism skills, physical training, and great merits and virtues are more likely to sense it when they encounter a catastrophe. Even ordinary cultivators are more likely to sense it as they reach a higher level.

But this is still a low-probability event, so the seven Nascent Soul cultivators did not cast any spell to conceal the secrets of heaven. In the world of earthly immortals, there is no place for learning this kind of Taoism at a lower level.

At this moment, Lu Cheng could completely put away the flying car and flee. These seven robbery cultivators would most likely not continue to chase him.

Hunting down a true disciple of the Taiqing Sect in broad daylight would cause endless harm. Although they did it, they would rather let others know than see it.

However, at this moment, Baiyun Feiche Inland City felt an itch coming from the bottom of his heart and spreading throughout his body, and his palms opened and closed subconsciously:
Since Lu Cheng was in the mortal world, he has been a warrior who focused on bravery and decisiveness.

The so-called combat cultivators naturally refer to those cultivators who are not proficient in other arts of cultivating immortals and are only good at fighting with swords and magic.

Over the past few hundred years, as his own magical powers grew higher and higher, the opportunities for sword fighting and magic fighting became fewer and fewer. He practiced in the mortal world and in the immortal world. Day after day of practice made Lu Cheng's body and mind gradually calm.

In the sect, he had no interest in participating in the sect competition. Those children were too young for him, and those in front of him... were barely edible.

“A good Taoist should abstain from killing and cherish life, but these are the Tribulation Cultivators—their hands are covered in blood, their bodies are filled with evil spirits. We are the Taoists, we only kill, we don’t save!”

It is:

The Taiqing Sect hides its strengths and has been in seclusion for a hundred years to comprehend the profound principles.

The wind and thunder seals turn the world in motion, and the talismans weave the field of life and death.

Jie Xiu and the seven evil spirits spread their net across the sky, and their heart of Taoism became vast and boundless with a single thought.

The sword is out without turning back to slay the evil spirits, and the blood-stained cloud chariot is proof of the killing madman.

Don't say that this person has a perverse nature, God is heartless and will mourn for him.

The Baiyun Flying Car seemed to be unaware of anything as it approached the edge of the formation. The seven Nascent Soul Tribulation Cultivators had already hidden themselves at this time, watching the Baiyun Flying Car approaching rapidly. Gradually, their pupils became bloodshot and their faces filled with murderous intent.

But at this moment, the white cloud flying car suddenly disappeared, revealing the handsome Taoist in it, high in the sky, between the sea of ​​clouds. At this moment, he still had a talisman in his hand: the seventh-level Yuanshen Thunder Talisman.

Click!

The moment the seventh-level soul thunder talisman burned out between Lu Cheng's fingers, the entire sky suddenly twisted.

A pillar of purple-white lightning pierced down from the sky, its power as powerful as a punishment from heaven, tearing a hole in the dome of black clouds that covered a hundred miles.

"Seventh-level thunder talisman!? What's going on?"

The old man in the blood-red robe had not yet finished shouting in shock when the lightning struck the head of the dwarf monk on the right.

The seven black evil blades that the dwarf hastily raised just melted away like snow in boiling water when they came into contact with the lightning. The protective magic energy around him shattered like paper, and he exploded into a bloody mist in the lightning, and even his Nascent Soul was unable to escape.

"Husband!"

The beautiful Taoist nun nearby screamed miserably when she saw this, and thirty-six dark blue poisonous swords turned into a sword net and strangled Lu Cheng.

A foul-smelling blue mist was emitted from the blade of each sword. It was actually the "Nine Nether Poisonous Evil" refined from the poisonous fire collected from the earth's lungs. Ordinary magic weapons would rot and their spirituality would be damaged if they came into contact with it.

At this moment, the formation set up by these seven people has been broken, and even the continuous flow of qi has caused some vibrations and damage to their internal organs.

The "Wind Seal" of the Jade Seal of the Heavenly Palace floating beside Lu Cheng suddenly lit up, and a wind barrier suddenly appeared around him. The sword lights of the poisonous swords penetrated the wind barrier three inches and could not go any further. The poisonous mist on the swords was blown back by the strong wind, and even hit the Taoist nun in the face.

At the same time, Lu Cheng clenched his fist with one hand, stretched it forward, and spread out his five fingers upward: remotely controlling the lightning that had not dissipated after killing the dwarf.

The seventh-level Yuanshen Thunder Talisman is extremely valuable. How could it be possible that it could just kill one Yuanying Tribulation Cultivator and then be done with it?

In the lightning, spirituality was gestating and gradually a purple-scaled demon dragon was born. It was one of the thunder demons refined by Lu Cheng when he practiced the Five Elements of Thunder.

The magic skills of the main body and the incarnation are not interconnected, but the understanding of Taoism is the same. After Lu Cheng's main body refined the Purple Gang Xuan Sha Thunder Sword Technique, the incarnation's mastery and control of thunder magic was also greatly improved. Coupled with the Wan Fu body and his natal magic weapon Tianyuan Jiu Zhang Yushou Talisman, he can control the seventh-level thunder talisman thunder machine more delicately.

Rumble, a gigantic purple-scaled demon dragon seemed to have developed a soul, and pounced towards several other Nascent Soul cultivators to bite them. Purple lightning leaped on its body, which made even Nascent Soul cultivators feel terrified.

"Nine Netherworld Returns!"

At this time, the beautiful Taoist nun had already used her escape skills to avoid the blue mist. At the same time, she bit her tongue and spurted out a blood arrow. The blue mist around her thirty-six poisonous swords suddenly exploded.

The blue mist in the sky condensed into a Netherworld Ghost King that was twenty or thirty feet tall, with a blue face, fangs and claws reaching out to grab Lu Cheng's head.

This is the evil spirit sealed in the poison sword, which is designed to corrode the soul of the cultivator. It is also one of the most fierce killing moves of this beautiful Taoist nun.

"act recklessly."

Seeing this, Lu Cheng sneered. The wind barrier created by the wind seal suddenly shrank inward and fell on the Taoist. The two merged into one and formed a whirlwind and escaped.

The fifth of Xuantian's Thirteen Changes: North Sea Kunpeng Transformation, condensing supernatural powers, North Sea Kunpeng Dance.

At this time, Lu Cheng still had a magical power of Kunpeng in his body, which was the power of life. Wind was a different type of wood, and Kunpeng was a true spirit of the wind. When the two were combined, he could naturally control it as he wished.

An invisible wind quickly fell on the side of the beautiful Taoist nun. The Taoist nun had not cultivated the magical power of spiritual eyes, and was unable to react in time. Lu Cheng took the opportunity to raise his fist and swung it out. The fist shadows were like pillars falling from the sky, densely packed and layered, and broke the Taoist nun's body in half.

When monks fight, sometimes they have to fight to the death. Even if they have protective magic weapons, they sometimes cannot react in time and cannot use them, and their bodies are directly damaged.

A ray of Nascent Soul spiritual light flew out of the body, tearing through the space in an instant and trying to escape.

However, the spatial stability of the Earthly Immortal Realm was much higher than that of the Lower Realm, and the Nascent Soul could not escape too far by tearing through the space. In addition, Lu Cheng was experienced in killing, so the Taoist nun's Nascent Soul was smashed and swallowed by the blood-colored beads the next moment.

Before the blood rain from the damaged body had landed on the ground, four dark shadows had already come from different directions.

The purple-scaled demon dragon transformed by Lei Ji has been resolved by their joint efforts. On the left, the one-eyed Taoist priest raised the bone banner, and thousands of skeletons spewed out green fire; on the right, the twin brothers each held a death nail and a soul-locking chain, and the wind was chilling; from the back, a bronze corpse king broke through the air, tearing the air with his fist.

There was also a tall and thin Taoist priest far behind, changing his spells rapidly, and it was obvious that he was about to cast some powerful magic.

"Well done!"

The jade seal beside Lu Cheng suddenly flew up, and the Nine Chapters of the Heavenly Book lit up at the same time. A hundred and twenty-four thousand six hundred runes suddenly appeared between heaven and earth, interweaving into a three-dimensional rune array.

The green fire spewed out by the white bone banner was extinguished by the cold water produced by the "Rain Seal"; the death nail hit the virtual image of the mountain manifested by the "Map Seal" and pierced into the mountain silently; the soul-locking chain was melted red and burned by the scorching sun fire of the "Sun Seal".

The most amazing thing was that the bronze corpse king's fist had clearly touched Lu Cheng's back three inches, but was blocked by the "No Seal" that suddenly appeared. This seal contained the meaning of Taixu, making the fist force like a drop in the ocean.

The natal magic weapon is the key to the monk's authority, so most monks often choose natal magic weapons of the attacking and killing type.

After all, even if the defense is strong, if you only defend without attacking, you will eventually lose after a long time. What's the point?

However, the main power of the Tianyuan Nine-Chapter Jade Talisman is to bless and protect the master. It is a comprehensive magic weapon. Its shortcomings in attack can be completely compensated by attacking talismans.

Lu Cheng took the opportunity to turn around and strike out with his palm. The "Thunder Seal" on his palm burst out with five-colored lightning, which caused the Corpse King's chest to collapse and fly backwards thousands of feet.

"Five Thunder Methods?!"

The blood-robed old man finally changed color, and hurriedly pinched his fingers to recall the bronze corpse king. But he saw another purple-patterned talisman slip out of Lu Cheng's sleeve, and when the talisman paper spontaneously ignited without wind, thunderclouds reappeared in the sky.

"Another seventh-level thunder talisman!? Stop him!"

The one-eyed Taoist shouted, and the remaining five people simultaneously spurted out their lifeblood. The blood mist condensed into a six-armed demon god in the air, with each palm holding a magic treasure phantom.

This is the killing move of the Seven Killings Immortal Trap Formation, "Six Desires of the Heavenly Demon", which originally requires the joint efforts of seven people to perform.

But at this time, the remaining five people ignored their own vitality loss and actually performed it. However, it was just that the power that could originally rival the power of the Yuan Shen was now unknown.

The demon statue waved all six arms, and the phantom of the magic treasure turned into reality: the blood knife cut the soul, the bone whip extracted the essence and blood, the poison needle pierced the Nascent Soul, the Yin Luo confused the mind, the ghost seal suppressed the magic power, and finally the empty hand directly grabbed the thundercloud, trying to crush the calamity cloud.

"To use the devil to shake the heaven is like an ant trying to shake a tree, not knowing whether it will live or die."

Seeing this, Lu Cheng sneered, and at the same time, the thunder talisman in his hand completely burned out. The thundercloud in the sky suddenly collapsed into a point, and then a beam of light condensed purely from purple lightning burst out.

The lightning and the demon god confronted each other in mid-air for a moment.

Rumble, rumble, heavy thunder rolled past.

The six-armed demon statue was eventually submerged in the lightning, and the five magic treasures were shattered one after another, and finally the palm was directly vaporized.

The purple lightning spread out with unabated force, covering all five people below. The blood-robed old man's protective blood barrier lasted for three breaths before it broke, and he fell to the ground with his body charred black.
The one-eyed Taoist's bone banner broke into pieces, and his right arm turned to ash. The twin brothers' death nails and soul-locking chains melted into iron liquid, and their bodies were destroyed. The tall and thin Taoist's protective magic weapon was directly broken, and he vomited blood.

Only the green corpse king rushed over with a roar, but was suppressed by the jade seal that Lu Cheng raised.

The Zhou Tian Xing force manifested by the "Heaven Seal" was as heavy as a mountain, forcing the corpse king to kneel on one knee. Lu Cheng took the opportunity to draw a line across his neck with his fingers, and the five elements sword energy slashed through like a wheel, and the green head fell to the ground with a bang.

"It's time to finish."

Lu Cheng took a deep breath, and the jade seal suddenly turned into a stream of light and disappeared into the sky. Suddenly, the wind and thunder stopped, the clouds and fog disappeared, and only a pure white jade seal was hanging high in the sky, like a sun in the sky.

The five robbery cultivators below were about to flee, but they found that their magic power was stagnant. The "no seal" turned the ten-mile radius into a talisman domain, and all the flow of spiritual energy was controlled by Lu Cheng.

"Fellow Daoist, spare our lives! We wish..."

Before the blood-robed old man finished begging for mercy, Lu Cheng had already finished the last spell. More than 120,000 light talismans emerged from the void, pouring down like a river of light. The bodies of the five robbery cultivators were decomposed and melted in the talisman light, and even their Nascent Souls were killed and devoured one by one by Lu Cheng's blood beads of all spirits.

After all, the magic weapon, the Blood Pearl of All Spirits, is the result of many years of hard practice. Even if it cannot be used as a life-long magic weapon, it is still incredibly powerful as an ordinary magic weapon.
