Great Red Immortal Sect

Chapter 364 Entering the painting
Taiqing Dao realm.

Pure energy rose, and profound light shone through. Mu Xu Dao Ren, transformed from Dongfang Guang Xu, stood by the pool, looking at the suppressed ferocious beast before him, his expression momentarily stunned.

"Taotie?"

Mu Xu came to his senses. He had been ordered by a high-ranking official of the Thunder Palace to dismantle the artifact here. Where did this ferocious beast come from?

As he was pondering, he saw silver lightning leaping in the sky and clouds drifting by. From among them, a black Qilin stepped out, and sitting on it was a person dressed in black robes, holding a celestial sword with sword energy crisscrossing.

"grown ups."

Mu Xu bowed respectfully. Upon seeing the black Qilin, he was even more astonished. To be able to use such a celestial beast as a mount, this person's status must be even more noble than he had imagined.

Xu Xuan descended from the thunderclouds, looked at the greed and evil suppressed by the pure energy, his heart stirred slightly, and he said calmly:
"This beast wreaks havoc in the mortal realm. Our department is in charge of capturing it and bringing it back to heaven to await execution."

As he spoke, Xu Xuan looked at the location of Greed and Evil, and with a thought, he used his pure energy to sweep it away, leaving it behind, and prepared to leave.

Upon seeing this, Mu Xu hurriedly stepped forward and bowed, exclaiming:
"My lord, I have already disassembled most of this magical artifact. The remaining parts will be completed within a few months. Most importantly, the [Azure Merchant Cloud Gold] has been refined."

As he spoke, Mu Xu took out a piece of light blue spiritual gold. It felt moist to the touch and was surrounded by clouds. It was the [Azure Merchant Cloud Gold].

This piece of spiritual gold belongs to the Gui Water element and has wonderful uses such as calming the mind and protecting the body, making it extremely valuable.

Xu Xuan's subordinate nodded. Mu Xu looked expectant but dared not look directly at the official in front of him, and lowered his head slightly.

"Focus on refining your materials. Your position has already been secured; just wait a while longer."

"Yes." Mu Xu was overjoyed and immediately bowed, respectfully watching Xu Xuan lead away the Taotie beast, ride the Qilin, and disappear into the pure air.

Stepping out of the palace, Xu Xuan felt a surge of emotion and dispersed the strange phenomena around him. He used his pure energy to suppress greed and evil. He was now extremely skilled at this, using pure energy to bind and rob him of all five senses.

As his mind returned to normal, he slowly opened his eyes, only to see that Wei Shuang had already summoned a sprig of winter plum blossom. The wind and snow surged, freezing his physical body and covering it in a layer of solid ice.

Black flames surged nearby, emanating vital energy, while a constant gloomy wind and foul atmosphere arose. Nanwang unleashed true fire, causing Le Nian's golden body to rust and her pink divine light to dim, and the celestial maidens within also became ugly.

Seeing Xu Xuan open his eyes, Wei Shuang raised her sword and activated her supernatural powers, causing the wind and frost to fall.

Xu Xuan's magical power was frozen and stagnant. The snow plum blossom continuously transmitted cold air, which clung to his life, stopping his movements and preventing him from activating his supernatural powers and unleashing his sword intent.

"You demon, how dare you harm my fellow Daoist Pijie!"

Wei Shuang's tone was extremely resentful. Although he had only known Xu Xuan for a short time, Xu Xuan was still a first-rate sword immortal. Xu Xuan had done his best to slay demons, and Wei Shuang respected him. But now, this greedy and wicked man had stolen his true name and taken over his supernatural powers.

Xu Xuan's mind raced. Wei Shuang had clearly used her supernatural powers in his struggle against greed and evil, along with her magical artifacts, to suppress and freeze Xu Xuan's unsuspecting body. She could make her move at any moment.

"It is I. Greed and evil are dead, slain by my sword intent."

"Bullshit, you demon! You even stole my real name, Fellow Daoist Xu, and you still want to fool me?" Wei Shuang continued using her supernatural powers, working in conjunction with the plum blossom to lock Xu Xuan tightly in place.

Xu Xuan was in a state of panic. After thinking it over and over, he realized that he really couldn't prove his true identity.

The Great Desire's technique of stealing fame and status is a unique evil art in the world. It can completely replace a person, even the position of the Moon Goddess Heng'e. Huan Yu is an example of this.

No matter what evidence he presents, it could all be an act by greedy and evil people. Only by bringing forth a highly powerful person or a special magical artifact can his true identity be verified.

Where can I find it right now?
Seeing Wei Shuang's increasingly grief-stricken expression, she actually looked up to the sky and let out a mournful howl.

"In the Great Delightful Demon Realm, if my Snow Plum Clan does not avenge this, I will never leave my lineage to the world again. The Moon Goddess and the Thunder Sword Immortal have both been humiliated by your hand. How hateful, how hateful—"

Xu Xuan fell silent for a moment, not wanting to provoke Wei Shuang any further. This True Person of the Frost Plum Sect seemed to have some mental problems, perhaps due to years of resentment.

Looking up at Wuxiang Temple, Nanwang had completely destroyed Le Nian's golden statue.

But the Vajra of the Joyful Dharma Path did not retreat. Instead, it desperately tried to reassemble its shattered golden body. With a burst of pink light, it transformed into the form of a Vajra.

This Vajra is in a wrathful form, with two bodies and four legs, wearing a skull crown, embracing a consort, with sixteen arms on the left and right, holding bone implements, a skull hanging from his crotch, stepping on two people, and a bright flame condensing into a halo behind him.

He rose into the sky, crashing directly into the still-reincarnating Wisdom, merging into it. In an instant, he transformed into both Buddha and demon forms, and the celestial demon's colorful light shone brightly, overwhelming the golden body.

Seeing this, Nan Wang thought that Le Nian was about to use some kind of trick again, so he activated the Heavenly Eye between his eyebrows with all his might, and the Indestructible Fire erupted, shooting out in layers of black light.

The Great Black Heaven's destructive light erupted wildly, once again blowing the entire Wuxiang Temple away. The Buddha and Demon bodies formed by wisdom were solidly struck by this sixth-grade spell. They were washed away by the black fire and the light of destruction, disintegrating inch by inch and turning into ashes.

Wei Shuang was still suppressing [Greed and Evil] with her supernatural powers, but upon seeing this, her eyes sharpened, and she cried out:
"Fellow Taoist, be careful!"

Before he could finish speaking, Nanwang had already sensed something was wrong. Between the Buddha and the demon, the transformation of intellect had reached its final stage, turning into an infant.

Cola Nian used his powers to merge with the old monk, who was transformed into a skeleton, devoid of any life force, and had already perished.

The Buddha and the demon were intertwined, transforming into a celestial demonic light. The Vajra of Joyful Rebirth leaped out from within, his pink monk's robe tattered, half of his body burned away by black flames, dragging his charred bones, looking extremely pitiful.

"Huanyu, you owe me."

Le Nian cast a spell, and the remaining power of vows in the Formless Pure Land was scattered onto the area of ​​heavenly demonic light. The void shattered, revealing the forms of countless heavenly demons inside.

A buzzing sound came from all directions, restless and uneasy. Le Nian's Dharma body quickly dissipated, turning into a pink bubble that exploded and disappeared.

Upon seeing this patch of colorful light, Nan Wang felt his blood run cold and immediately retreated to Wei Shuang's side.

"When the Heavenly Demon descends upon the world, the power of the Buddhist monk's vows is inherently a convergence of human desires, which is most likely to attract demonic nature, especially since his wisdom and cultivation throughout his life are concentrated here—"

Before he could finish speaking, the ferry crossing burst open, and a buzzing sound came from it. The heavenly demonic light burst forth like a torrent, and the howling sound filled the mountains and fields.

Both of them knew the power of this thing. The "Other-Transformation Freedom Wonderful Method" of the Great Desire Demon Path imitates the Heavenly Demon. Once it invades one's mind, the outcome is no different from being robbed of one's name by the Six Desire Demons, and even more unsolvable.

As the light shone forth, dark blue demonic energy enveloped Nan Wang and Wei Shuang, blocking the demon horde.

The Qi has a way to subdue the ten demons, with the Heavenly Demon being the first. Although Wei Shuang's cultivation is higher, it was Nan Wang's supernatural powers that protected the group at this moment.

"No, we must ask our elders to come and use the ancient treasure of Qi to suppress it, otherwise the immortal sects will have to take action—"

Before he could finish speaking, a torrent of demonic energy swept in, and the two of them were swept away by the dark blue demonic aura.

Nan Wang's expression changed, and he tried to take back Xu Xuan's physical body, but he couldn't stop him.

Looking at the colorful light filling the sky, Xu Xuan's gaze darkened. At this moment, Wei Shuang's supernatural powers dissipated, and countless demonic forces had already surrounded her, their desires rising, ready to devour anyone they could.

'I wonder if the profound energy can withstand it.'

Xu Xuan was also uncertain. There were too many Heavenly Demons right now, which was truly terrifying. If an ordinary Purple Mansion was tainted by even a trace of them, it would have to do its best to refine them in order to avoid becoming a demon.

The demons lurking at this ferry crossing are enough to engulf all the cultivators in Qingzhou, and even Tianzhou. He struggled to break free from the last chill and gripped Dan Ting tightly. Countless demons roared in, and he drew his sword and slashed straight at them, unleashing tribulation lightning to block the attack with an invisible means of annihilation. However, he was still unable to escape the sea of ​​demons.

Many more demons burrowed into his body, only to be shattered by the pure energy, transforming into a divine soul essence that returned to his spirit.

At first, he thought there would be benefits, but after a while he couldn't take it anymore. His soul swelled to its limit and was about to be shattered.

As the demon was vanquished, the pure energy within Xu Xuan's inner realm continued to surge, gradually repairing his Taiqing Dao Realm. The progress was far superior to before, which was the only good news.

High in the sky, ink-like patterns suddenly flowed. Xu Xuan looked up and saw a scroll unfolding, covering the sky and the sun. On it, a purple cloud and water intertwined and inseparable.

"A scroll depicting a blessed land on white paper."

Xu Xuan was filled with awe. This item came from the most blessed land in the world and was a secret treasure of the Louguan sect, bestowed by the Great Fengtian family.

It was just a blank scroll, yet it encompassed the entire Sea of ​​Heavenly Demons, absorbing countless colorful lights into it.

Xu Xuan's mind was jolted. Just when he thought he could escape, he saw the ink change and suck him into the painting.

"You fiend, where do you think you're going!"

Guan Quan's voice came from the purple clouds. Xu Xuan's expression changed, becoming extremely complicated. He gave up struggling and fell into the painting.

The white paper scroll fell and adhered to the place where the Heavenly Demon Ferry was located, blocking the void. However, countless demonic forces still surged out, gradually showing a tendency to fill it up.

Wei Shuang and Nan Wang were in a rather disheveled state, swept up by demonic energy and landed in the eastern sky. Looking at the state of the painting, their expressions were not good.

“Greed, lust, and all these demons are in the painting. Senior Guan Quan alone will probably have a hard time stopping them.” Wei Shuang turned her gaze to Nan Wang.

“Fellow Daoist Nanwang, your family is of the orthodox lineage of Qi. Quickly go and invite a high-ranking cultivator. I will stay here and see if we can rescue Senior Guan Quan.”

Nan Wang's expression softened slightly. Wei Shuang's actions were almost a matter of risking her own life to give Guan Quan a chance at survival, which was truly admirable.

The situation is critical. This place is extremely remote and can barely be considered under the jurisdiction of Tai Zhen. However, the one representing this immortal sect is the Wan Jin Zhenren!

Who can we count on this person?

Nan Wang broke through the void and had no choice but to see if the Emperor's family's True Immortals were nearby and might come forward. If that didn't work, he would have to ask his elders for help.

Wei Shuang gripped her sword, her gaze hardening as she stared intently at the expanding scroll.
-
Within the blank paper scroll.

The sky was filled with colorful light, all of which were densely packed celestial demons. At the center of the sky was a purple haze, where the battle between the Assimilation Water Desire Mouth was extremely fierce, and even demons could not get close.

Xu Xuan landed in a white light. There seemed to be no distinction between four directions and up and down in this place. All he could see was a vast expanse of white.

The demon above seemed to notice him and rushed over with a whoosh, causing his expression to change.

He drew his sword and once again slew the demons. The thunder was like a prison, isolating and suppressing countless demonic forces. Even so, many escaped the net and entered his body, where they were pulverized by the pure energy and strengthened his divine soul.

Xu Xuan finally understood why all cultivators feared the Heavenly Demon. His body was already extremely restrained by the Heavenly Thunder, and he also had the sword intent to destroy the invisible without consuming any magic power, but he still couldn't withstand it.

If an ordinary person from the Purple Mansion came here, they would probably have already fallen into demonic possession, how could they have lasted this long?
"Greedy and wicked, come quickly to my aid! What are you waiting for!"

The mouth of the heavenly water vessel opened and closed, and sounds of pleasure and desire emanated from it, quite urgent.

Xu Xuan's gaze sharpened slightly. For some reason, in this painting, only he could maintain his human form, while Guan Quan and Huan Yu had both transformed into supernatural images.

"You demon, you have harmed my fellow practitioners. Today I will suppress you all and rid the world of this scourge."

"What are you pretending to be so righteous for! Guan Quan, it's just that I converted one of your disciples and led him into my Pure Land, and you're making such a fuss about it."

Xu Xuan rode the wind and rose up, using his sword intent to slay the demons. He walked to the purple mist and the mouth of the water, but the two did not react, making it difficult to see his true form.

"Greedy and wicked, why don't you take action and kill this man? When you return, Shao Yin will reward you."

As the water seemed to open its mouth again, accompanied by the moonlight, it broke through the purple clouds in the sky. A muffled groan came from Guan Quan in the air, and the clouds dimmed for a moment.

Xu Xuan turned his sword, unleashing a burst of calamity-inducing light and a chilling sword intent, pointing it upwards. Overjoyed, he cried out:

"Hurry up and act. The body of a sword immortal is yours. I need purple qi to replenish it."

Before she could finish speaking, thunder roared and a sword slashed down.

Xu Xuan endured the pain of the demon entering his body, his soul swelled to its limit, almost bursting open, and the pleasure before him became the object of his release.

With a single sword strike, thunder roared into the sky, sword intent surged forth, parting the sea of ​​colorful light formed by the demonic energy, and slashing straight towards the mouth of water formed by desire.

Amidst the crisscrossing sword light, Huan Yu cried out in pain as the water rapidly dissolved under the bombardment of the thunderbolt. The sword intent cleaved her into pieces, revealing a female body hidden in her mouth.

Clad in a moon-white robe, adorned with a frost-covered sword and snow-white shoes, she was none other than the Moon Goddess. Demonic light emanated from her. As she opened her eyes and looked around, a voice filled with pleasure rang out, tinged with coldness.

"You are not greedy or evil."

As the light of the demon emanated, the surrounding celestial demons, as if responding to a summons, erupted, devouring the purple clouds in the sky and blocking Guan Quan.

Huan Yu turned his spirit sword around, carrying thousands of heavenly demonic lights, its demonic power extremely strong. Xu Xuan was almost exhausted of his magic power at this time, and moreover, countless heavenly demons had burrowed into his body. He had no choice but to raise his sword and barely manage to slay his opponent.

"What exactly did you do? Where is your greed and evil?"

Huan Yu, as if driven mad, led the Heavenly Demon to attack, knocking Xu Xuan down from the sky and sending him sinking into the white void below.

Xu Xuan remained silent, wielding his sword to slay the demon. His pure energy grew stronger and stronger, filling his Dao realm. Finally, he came into contact with the Shadow Moon Pool, where a sudden change occurred.

The serene moonlight emanated from the pool, shining through his body and illuminating all directions, sweeping away the demons. When the moonlight fell upon Huan Yu, the demon was immediately immobilized and unable to move.

Xu Xuan got a chance to catch his breath, quickly recovered his magical power, and stood with his sword in hand.

In the moonlight, the true nature of pleasure and desire was gradually extracted and separated from the body of the Moon Goddess, revealing a woman whose face was a vortex of flesh and blood, dressed in Liao-style clothing, with demonic energy rising around her, turning into flowing water.

The frost sword turned, pointing at pleasure and desire. Taiyin Heng'e opened her eyes, and the clear moonlight illuminated the place.

"Great pleasure and desire."

She spoke slowly, bathed in moonlight, and with a single sword strike, Huan Yu's physical body crumbled inch by inch, vanishing into nothingness in the moonlight.

Xu Xuan was still reeling from the scene before him when he saw Taiyin Heng'e bow respectfully and say:

"Taiyin Heng'e greets Daojun."
