Under One Person, Golden Light Transforms into God

Chapter 495 The Great Dao Does Not Exist

The sound, like sharp spikes formed from frozen ice, not only cut off the sound but also helped everyone focus their minds.

Lin Zheng snapped out of his daze, his expression instantly changing drastically: "Talented!"

A thin layer of blood was visible on Ma Youcai's clothes, and a hazy aura of blood lingered in the air, which Jiang Fan inhaled instantly.

Zhang Huaidan narrowed his eyes, staring at the corpse demon that showed a hint of enjoyment and reminiscence.

Lin Zheng didn't care about anything else and went over to help Ma Youcai. Liu Yanyan was shocked to see that he was covered in blood.

Black Pipe's heart is pounding wildly, what's going on?
In the blink of an eye.

Ma Youcai was covered in blood?
That guy named Jiang Fan didn't do anything, he just laughed twice!
Black Pipe felt a chill run through his hands and feet. Although he understood as soon as he entered the underground palace that the master of this palace was not the same as them at all.

But just now, without anyone noticing, Ma Youcai almost bled to death, and still managed to get a hard blow to the head!

This!
What kind of monster is it?!
Black Pipe's limbs were stiff, and even when facing the crazed Xiao Zizai, he did not feel how weak and pitiful he was.

If even an outsider like him was so terrified, then Lin Zheng and the others must have been even more shocked.

Lin Zheng helped Ma Youcai up, but he couldn't feel even a trace of hatred in his heart.

What good is boundless hatred in the face of a corpse demon?

The despair that had vanished before returned tenfold or a hundredfold.

If it is just a demonic zombie, it must be destroyed even at the cost of one's life, for the sake of the legacy of the corpse-driving lineage.

But these legendary monsters are beyond the reach of mortals, as irresistible as natural disasters.

Lin Zheng supported Ma Youcai without saying a word.

Liu Ping trembled all over, looking around nervously.

Suddenly, the zombies in the hall all turned their heads, and their dry eyes emitted a sinister light that sent chills down one's spine.

At this moment, it truly is like a lamb entering a tiger's den, with no chance of survival!
Even if Master Huaidan could restrain the unfathomable Corpse Demon, the terrifying Demon Zombie, along with nine White Zombies and dozens of ancient corpses from previous dynasties, would still be beyond the reach of the masses.

Facing Zhang Huaidan's gaze, Jiang Fan put his hands behind his back and smiled faintly: "Speaking of which, I should thank Fellow Daoist Zhang for bringing this child to me."

His gaze swept toward Ma Youcai.

Ma Youcai had already lost too much blood while purifying the Corpse-Suppressing Compass, and now he had been ambushed by Jiang Fan. His lips were turning ashen, and when he was looked at by that gaze, he immediately trembled. Lin Zheng protected him behind him.

Zhang Huaidan said, "Fellow Daoist, you have walked the path of Human Immortal and achieved the position of Quasi-True Person, yet you secretly attacked a mere youth. Don't you feel ashamed?"

He never expected that Jiang Fan would actually resort to underhanded tactics, even though the two of them had just been having a pleasant conversation.

Even if they had some vague understanding in their hearts, they should still use their methods against him.

Unexpectedly, the intention lay with Ma Youcai.

Jiang Fan laughed and said, "That's not right. This boy is my mortal enemy. There's no question of plotting against him, let alone feeling ashamed."

Zhang Huaidan narrowed his eyes slightly: "Oh? What do you mean by that?"

The trembling Ma Youcai was stunned. His mortal enemy?

Heaven have mercy, with his thin arms and legs, how could he possibly provoke the mythical corpse demon?

Lin Zheng seemed to be deep in thought, and Ma Youcai was taken aback.

He is the last remaining bloodline of the Ma family, a lineage of corpse-driving and exorcising demons. More than a hundred years ago, the Ma family bled themselves dry in order to exterminate the demonic zombies.

That demonic zombie was one of the corpse demon's subordinates!
At this moment, it wasn't just him who understood the crux of the matter. Liu Pingqiang mustered his courage and angrily pointed at Jiang Fan: "The great calamity that my corpse-driving lineage encountered more than a hundred years ago was indeed orchestrated by you!"

Jiang Fan glanced at him.

Just as a god high above looks down on the creatures on earth, he doesn't bother to answer his questions.

"If it weren't for Fellow Daoist Zhang's sake, with your tone, I would have devoured your blood essence in an instant!"

Liu Ping's body trembled violently, and he lowered his pointing hand.

It has nothing to do with temperament or hatred; that kind of oppressive power on a life level is something that ordinary people cannot endure.

After Jiang Fan finished speaking, he stopped paying attention to the others and looked at Zhang Huaidan, revealing a somewhat aggrieved smile: "Fellow Daoist Zhang, you have probably been deceived by them. More than a hundred years ago, a group of thieves entered my underground palace with the intention of capturing me as a slave."

A murderous glint flashed in Jiang Fan's eyes, and the eyes of the many zombies in the hall also shot out fierce light.

The atmosphere in the underground palace seemed frozen.

Hei Guan'er stared at Liu Ping and the others in utter astonishment. How could there be such a secret?

So the so-called calamity of the corpse-driving lineage was nothing more than self-inflicted suffering; the corpse demon had simply defended itself.

Liu Ping and Lin Zheng stared wide-eyed in disbelief. How could this be!

Jiang Fan sighed: "The leader of that group, relying on his special bloodline, killed one of my capable subordinates and destroyed my Jade Marrow Coffin. Such a great humiliation and enmity, if it had fallen on Fellow Daoist Zhang, how would we have dealt with him?"

Jiang Fan's eyes sharpened: "I swore to the heavens that I would make those villains of that time die without descendants! The bloodline in this child is from the same source. I also want to thank Fellow Daoist Zhang for sending me the missing jade marrow. If I can achieve my wish and become a True Person in the future, I will not fail your kindness today!"

Jiang Fan spoke earnestly, his voice sincere, and his gaze fervent as he looked at Zhang Huaidan.

The man with the black tube standing to the side felt a chill run down his spine. He never expected, he really never imagined, that the truth inside was like this!

This explains why Jiang Fan sent the Demon Zombie to help the White Zombie Elder destroy the Corpse-Driving Clan; it turns out there was such a deep-seated hatred behind it.

Human hearts are truly unpredictable!

He was also a little resentful. The greed of the ancestors of the Corpse-Driving lineage had caused trouble, which had made him and Master Huaidan look bad.

"Impossible, this is impossible..."

Liu Ping muttered to himself, feeling as if his worldview had collapsed.

They were clearly a lineage of corpse drivers, and in order to eliminate the monsters that brought disaster to the world, they sacrificed themselves to kill them. How did it become that their ancestors were greedy and brought trouble upon themselves?

As one of the few remaining capable figures in the corpse-driving lineage, Liu Ping firmly believes in the events of over a hundred years ago.

However, when Jiang Fan, who had personally experienced the events, revealed the truth, his worldview was severely shaken.

He almost fainted on the ground.

"It's actually... Jiang Ran..."

Lin Zheng gave a bitter smile.

The ancestors of the corpse-driving lineage were the perpetrators, while Jiang Fan, the owner of the underground palace, was the victim.

Faced with such a truth, Liu Ping seemed to have aged ten years in an instant.

Suddenly, I realized that all those beliefs and resolve had become rootless duckweed, and much of the meaning of life had disappeared.

Ma Youcai seemed to have gone mad, muttering to himself, "My ancestors were wicked, I am a descendant of evil people..."

Looking at the three of them, Liu Yanyan completely panicked.

At this time.

"Why must you do this, fellow Daoist?"

"Does Fellow Daoist Zhang intend to stop me?"

Zhang Huaidan remained expressionless.

"Fellow Daoist wishes to cultivate with pure Yang blood, so why dare you do it but not admit it?"

"If I'm not mistaken, the bloodline of the Ma family, who were exorcists back then, was all transformed into resources for your cultivation, which is why you are Jiang Fan today."

Zhang Huaidan glanced at him: "Why don't you be more upright, fellow Daoist? This underhanded behavior is quite despicable." Hei Guan'er's pupils shrank sharply, and Lin Zheng and the others felt a chill run down their spines.

Is Jiang Fan lying?

He took a deep breath and finally calmed down. He was shocked and scared, but he didn't feel angry at all.

The owner of this underground palace, despite having the upper hand, still resorted to empty talk and deception.

Although their identities as friend or foe are unclear, the master of the underground palace is an equal to Master Huaidan in every action.

There are also real-life examples to learn from.

He subconsciously felt that someone of that level wouldn't fabricate lies.

However, the words of the real person at this moment were like a bucket of ice water being poured over one's head. The master of the underground palace was already so powerful, yet so cunning!

If this is truly an enemy, then the enemy is so terrifying that, apart from fear, he can feel no other emotion.

"evildoer……"

Liu Ping was instantly enraged and embarrassed; he had actually been tricked by this monster!

In an instant, a chill ran through my body. This is something that only exists in mythology. Its power is not just in terms of strength!

"The Demon of Death..."

Lin Zheng didn't even feel angry or embarrassed; he just felt as if his heart had fallen into an ice cave.

Yin gives rise to Yang, pure Yang blood; the profound mystery of Yin and Yang's creation cannot be fully explained in a few words.

The Corpse-Driving School was once a fairly large sect, and the Ma family, which was responsible for exorcising demons, held a position equivalent to that of the Celestial Master's Mansion within the Taoist community.

Thanks to the blessings left by a certain ancestor of the Ma family, every member of the direct line of the Ma family possesses the special bloodline of pure yang blood.

But who could have imagined that one day, this bloodline, which was originally meant to restrain zombies, would become the very essence of the corpse demon and the key to breaking through the barrier between heaven and man?

More than a hundred years ago.

Jiang Fan almost swallowed the bloodline of the Ma family of exorcists to become the Corpse Demon he is today!
……

When Zhang Huaidan ruthlessly exposed his lie, Jiang Fan showed no signs of embarrassment or anger. Instead, he smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist Zhang is joking. I was originally transformed from a sinister being, so it is only natural that I am a bit cunning and treacherous."

Hearing this matter-of-fact statement, Hei Guan'er was stunned. They were clearly on the same level, so how could Jiang Fan be so far behind Huai Dan Zhenren?
The face with the corners of his mouth turned up into his eyes, and suddenly, Black Pipe saw through the superficial smile and touched the deeper darkness.

He suddenly realized!
Although Jiang Fan is on the same level as Huai Dan Zhenren in some aspects, he is not the same person!

He is merely a being born from a human corpse, a being that has become sentient.

Essentially, it belongs to the category of monsters!
The clarinet seemed to be in a daze.

Perhaps all of Jiang Fan's conversations up to this point have been a facade. Even the name Jiang Fan—who knows if it was made up?
Lin Zheng and Liu Ping also realized the truth.

This is indeed a monster recorded in mythology. If we approach it from a human perspective, we will inevitably suffer a great loss!

Zhang Huaidan calmly said, "You are neither human nor animal, and what you just said was indeed wishful thinking on my part."

Although we share the same path, we are not friends in the same path.

A sudden silence fell over the underground palace.

Black tube's hair stood on end. There was still no chill in the air around him, only a rapidly rising sense of heat.

For a moment, his breathing felt like he was breathing fire.

Sweat poured down his face, while his lips were visibly cracked.

Lin Zheng and Liu Ping subtly shielded Liu Yanyan and Ma Youcai behind them. With the corpse demon in front of them, there was no chance of survival, and even despair became a luxury.

But humans are not mindless ants. Even knowing they are going to die, they will try their best to find a glimmer of hope. Even a straw is better than doing nothing.

Suddenly, a soft laugh echoed.

Black Pipe's breathing became heavy, and he felt the burning heat recede like a tide. His body, which was covered in sweat, suddenly felt cold. Lin Zheng and the others were also in a state of shock. Why was the Corpse Demon laughing?

Could it be that they are afraid to act rashly because Master Huai Dan is here?

“I see that you are young and have a bright future, and I cannot bear to see you die in the underground palace.”

Jiang Fan sighed softly, a look of regret in his eyes.

Black Pipe's heart pounded. Could it be that he was overthinking things, and that the Corpse Demon was really easy to talk to?

Their thoughts had barely formed when they plummeted again, sending chills down their spines. Then Jiang Fan said, "How about this? Fellow Daoist Zhang, hand over that jade marrow to restore my precious coffin to its perfect state. We can then leave these people here for my enjoyment, and then you can depart. When we achieve our goals in the future, we can become friends and discuss the Dao together. Wouldn't that be wonderful?"

Jiang Fan spoke eloquently and logically.

Before Zhang Huaidan could react, Hei Guan'er and the others had already fallen into the ice hole.

'Gulp~~'

Hei Guan swallowed hard, wanting to say something, but couldn't utter a single word.

Damn it, he's really done for in this godforsaken place today. He doesn't care about anything, but instead, he's feeling a surge of anger.

He clenched his fists tightly. This monster wants to eat me? I'll risk everything and slap him in the face with blood!

The black tube clenched its teeth.

Liu Pinglin smiled bitterly.

Liu Ping subtly glanced around, not daring to forget that this was Jiang Fan's stronghold.

Although Master Huaidan was of the same level as him, he was inevitably affected by this place with its heavy yin energy.

However, these people were either injured or lacked energy, making it difficult for them to help Zhang Huaidan.

In contrast, Jiang Fan's subordinates included demonic zombies, white zombies, and other zombies...

If they all rushed at them, even a True Immortal Huai Dan would likely be in great trouble, let alone the menacing Corpse Demons.

Liu Ping lowered his head, his heart filled with sorrow.

Lin Zheng also couldn't find a way to break the deadlock.

Jiang Fan, this monster, is something from more than two hundred years ago. Even if he only broke through the barrier between heaven and man a little over a hundred years ago, his foundation is far more profound than Zhang Huaidan's.

Perhaps at this moment, if the Celestial Master were to descend like a divine being, and the master and his disciples joined forces, they might be able to put up a fight against this corpse demon.

The reason why the Corpse Demon was willing to let Huai Dan Zhenren go was probably because it was afraid that the Zhenren would fight to the death.

At this moment, acceptance is undoubtedly the best choice.

Even if they were unwilling to admit it, they understood that the safety of Master Huaidan was more valuable than all of their lives combined.

Lin Zheng said, "Master, I am shameless, but I hope that you can show some favor to my corpse-driving lineage."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ma Youcai trembled violently. Was he going to die?

He... he really didn't want to die.

Ma Youcai's face was contorted with grief, and he trembled even more violently.

Liu Yanyan pursed her lips, revealing the brightest smile she had ever given in her life: "Real person, I also have a small request, could you please not forget me..."

Zhang Huaidan chuckled and looked at Jiang Fan, whose lips were slightly upturned.

"Though I am young, I am not ignorant. The great principles cannot coexist; why do you try to deceive me?" (End of Chapter)
