Gou Dao Changsheng: Starting from the Reincarnation of a Demon Cultivator

Chapter 824 Battle of Wits, Victory! [Long Chapter of 8,000 Words]

"Don't interfere?"

The insect-like runes on the yellow clay urn wriggled, accompanied by Chi Mingzi's deep laughter.

"Qingyangzi, you overestimate yourself. You think you're some kind of great immortal, that when the decree is issued, none of us dare to disobey."
Not getting involved?
You're not qualified!

The precious yellow clay urn manifested, its dim, spiritual light flowing and continuously corroding the blood-red Bodhi branch.

"Oh!"

The blue and yellow spiritual light collided, and the Azure Blood Bodhi Branch was actually knocked back a hundred feet, its spiritual light dimming.

"How could this be?"

The Thunder God, who was fighting Yun Huizi, changed his expression slightly. He slammed down his Thousand-Pound Hammer, which transformed into a Thunder Rhinoceros and collided with the Nether Spring Pearl.

Thunder roared and water flowed, and for a time, neither side could gain the upper hand.

His expression was solemn. He could no longer suppress Yun Huizi and focused his divine sense intently on the collision of the blue and yellow precious lights.

Within moments, the Bodhi branch was already covered with countless black dots, gnawing away at the precious light.

"The Azure Blood Bodhi Branch is a top-grade magic treasure. My senior brother and Chi Mingzi are of similar cultivation levels, both having reached the threshold of becoming a sect leader."
How could a superior-grade magic treasure be no match for the Thousand Cocoon Urn of the Six Paths Restriction?

"Brother Lei, calm your mind."

Xiao Changce stood on a jade lotus and held a crimson pearl in his hand, surrounded by flames. With his own strength, he overwhelmed Xuanzhi and Canhong, leaving them with almost no chance to fight back.

"Chi Mingzi's cultivation in the art of poison is profound, not to mention that the Gu poison treasure, the Thousand Cocoon Jar, has been passed down for nearly five hundred years."
"Cultivated and refined by generations of masters of poison, its destructive power is no less than that of a top-grade magic weapon."

He moved his mouth, secretly transmitting his thoughts.

"Brother Hu Lei, don't worry, the tides of the blue sea have been almost completely dissolved."

Even if we are defeated, and we sacrifice parts of the Thunder-Swallowing Vine and the Bone-Treating Cinnamon Twig Body, we will not return empty-handed.

I hope so.

With his mind focused, Master Hu Lei waved his sleeve, and the ancient stone tablet was raised, which he then used to crush the Huan Shui sword that Yun Huizi had unleashed.

Yun Huizi was no ordinary person either, and Hu Lei was also distracted, so he stepped in to help Fang Yi.

Stopping Yun Hui was the limit; everything else depended on Fang Yi.
Don't lose!

"Oh!"

The writhing sounds from the clay urn grew increasingly terrifying, and the dim, yellowish light transformed into chains that stretched across the heavens and earth.

The Bodhi branch of the Azure Blood has already been confined to a small area.

The illusory figure of Crimson Netherworld clapped his hands and chuckled:

"Fellow Daoist Qingyangzi, do you wish to hone your medical skills through me?"
You, a junior, dare to ask?

Even among cultivators who have reached the level of a sect leader, there are differences in their combat abilities, some stronger and some weaker.

"is it?"

A streak of azure light flew out from Jiuquan Mountain.

Fang Yi's illusory figure solidified instantly, showing neither joy nor sorrow, as he extended his slender hand and grasped the Azure Blood Bodhi Branch.

The vibrant power of life and death transformed into a bowl.

The Bodhi branch trembled, and the black Gu worms fell off, only to be swallowed by the alms bowl.

"laugh!"

Black worms writhe and gnaw at the bowl.

With a slender clench of his fingers, strands of azure silk pierced into the bowl, annihilating the Gu worms one by one.

"Thank you for your help, Fellow Daoist Chi Ming. I will gladly accept this insect poison."

"Such exquisite manipulation of magical power." Beside the Thousand Cocoon Urn, the Crimson Netherworld's phantom was blurry, its eyes filled with chilling coldness.

"A near-perfect mastery of spell control; within the Great Cloud Realm, only a handful of cultivators can accomplish this."
Even including great masters like Tianque and Yuyuan, the number is still no more than three.

"The more this is the case, the less we can afford to keep Qingyangzi alive!"

Ruan Xiang's divine sense flowed as she watched Fang Yi and Chi Mingzi fight. She had to admit that if they were of equal cultivation...
She was no match for Fang Yi.

Unfortunately, when we cultivators fight, we never look at talent, but rather at the level of our cultivation.

Even a prodigy with a heavenly spiritual root, a Core Formation cultivator who has condensed his golden core, could be killed by a cultivator.
He deserves to die, and he will die!
Without transforming potential and accumulated strength into combat capability, one can only hope for the future.

"As expected, the sect leader held back!" Having dodged a water blade, Master Hu Lei's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, was finally at ease.

In just three months, the last trace of the Azure Sea Tide Magic Restriction that had been entangled with the Thunder-Swallowing Vine will be worn away.

The three types of third-tier spiritual plants, one with life and the other without, are vastly different. The former can be considered a treasure of the Daoist lineage, while the latter, though precious...
But it can only be used temporarily.

"Fang Yi is so bold, yet he still has the energy to lure the enemy into making a move."

Seeing that his prized disciple still had the mind to collect Gu poison, Xiao Changce glanced at the Xuan Yang disciple who was at a disadvantage.

Within a quarter of an hour of fighting, a Foundation Establishment cultivator had already fallen, and a Pseudo-Core Formation cultivator was at a disadvantage.

He shook his head helplessly, the runes on the bronze lamp in his sleeve dimmed, and his magic power receded.

Compared to the lives of the cultivators in the sect, Fang Yi was his disciple, so naturally he would give his full support.

From the moment the battle began at Jiuquan Mountain, it was destined that rivers of blood would flow.

"tsk"

Ruan Xiang's urging voice reached his ears, and Chi Mingzi's gaze turned deep and his expression became solemn.

"Qingyangzi, can you really hold out like this?"

"Edict!"

The sounds of limbs colliding and wriggling within the cocoon jar were incessant, and the five-colored miasma transformed into tentacles, lashing down towards the Nine Springs Mountain.

In an instant, the grass and trees withered and decayed, the sacred spring dried up, and a foul stench filled the air.

"Buzz!"

The mountain's protective barriers were destroyed, and the five elements of protective barriers—green, brown, white, yellow, and red—converged, drawing upon the power of the spiritual veins to transform into a misty curtain.

"You really think this restriction can stop me?"

Sensing the faces of the Xuan Yang disciples in Jiuquan Mountain, who had survived the ordeal, Chi Mingzi sneered, his eyes greedily licking and sensing Fang Yi's extremely pure life force.

His constant concern was that Fang Yi had abandoned Jiuquan Mountain and was willing to do anything to escape.

He was not entirely confident in killing a Core Formation True Person who had reached the level of a Sect Master True Person and possessed two high-grade magic treasures.

"A mid-grade, third-tier spiritual healer who cultivates the Way of Wood Life—in the vast Great Cloud Cultivation World, there is only one such person."

"laugh!"

He flicked his fingertip, and a pale white light shot out.

In an instant.

The light traveled ten miles and landed in the thousand cocoon urn.

"Gulu.Gulu"

The miasma tentacles wriggled and rolled, surrounded by multicolored poisonous smoke that solidified.

"Tick!"

Thick, dark liquid, like tar, dripped down, constantly eroding the forbidden laws.

"laugh!"

Five-colored smoke rose from the forbidden area, and the forbidden area, which was visibly thinner than the naked eye, was swirling like mist.

"Qingyangzi, how is my Poisoning Technique?"

On the yellow clay urn, insect-like runes wriggled continuously, outlining a figure clad in a bright red robe, exuding a sinister aura.

Chi Mingzi's lips curled slightly. After unleashing his poison technique, he did not attack again.

The phantom rubbed against the yellow clay urn and said in a deep voice, "Fang Yi, do you have the ability to cure this poison?"

I've heard that Ruan Xiang of Biyue Pavilion intends to recruit you. I wonder if you're willing to abandon your evil ways and join the righteous cause?

Senior Brother Yuanhai has already broken through to a higher realm in seclusion, and the White Bone Sect is no weaker than Xuan Yang Mountain, both having Grand Masters overseeing them.”

"The difference between medicine and poison is just a matter of a single thought."

If Fellow Daoist Qingyang joins the White Bone Sect, I promise to lend you the [Green Bone Poison Book] for your study.
"If we join forces, we can complete the lineage and glimpse the realm of a fourth-tier grandmaster."

"Oh
"Fellow Daoist Chi Mingzi, do you think I'm naive and inexperienced, and that I can be easily deceived with empty words?"

Deep within the Nine Springs Mountain, beneath the gnarled ancient tree formed from the withered and flourishing banner of the Ruins Realm, Fang Yi stood with his arms outstretched, exuding a powerful aura and a cold smile on his face.

Chi Mingzi's hidden greed might have fooled the other Core Formation cultivators, but it couldn't fool him.
With a light grasp of his five fingers, blue lotuses rose from the magical barrier, which was corroded by charred poison.

As it sways, wisps of poisonous miasma are extracted, and lotus seeds are refined within the lotus pod.

"【Pyrolysis Method】?"
After I neutralize the poison, the changes in the medicinal properties within the Dharma will become my resources for further progress.
Soon

"We are not far from taking that step."

Fang Yi reached out and summoned large blue lotuses, which floated into his palm along the spiritual veins.

A faint blue glow appeared at the fingertips, and auspicious clouds rose from the blue sky, probing into the lotus seedpod.

As the charred poisonous miasma continued to erode, a verdant medicinal fragrance gradually solidified within the azure sky and precious clouds, and indistinct runes evolved.

Using miasma as material, Fang Yi could already sense that the inheritance within the Blood Witch Platform was being continuously digested and validated.

His own spiritual healing skills have already reached the threshold of the third-tier high-grade level.

"Edict!"

"Snapped!"

The Bodhi tree branch is full of vitality, with its leaves lush and vibrant green.

"Yan!"

The long, drawn-out roar of the dragon echoed for miles, shaking the entire Jiuquan Mountain range. The majestic dragon phantom on the Blood Bodhi branch vanished.

"disease!"

"Oh!"

Fang Yi's illusory image disintegrated, transforming into a series of verdant jeweled rings, which evolved into ancient vines twisting and turning, exotic flowers blooming, and moss spreading.
Human-shaped ginseng runs, adorable horses frolic, and astragalus root is as beautiful and spiritual as jade.
Mixed with ancient and shamanistic incantations, it blends seamlessly with the delicate branches of willows swaying in the wind.
"Hundred Wood Azure Spirit Whip, fall!" Fang Yi's deep voice echoed.

"Snapped!"

A crisp cracking sound rang out as a delicate branch transformed into afterimages, whipping towards the writhing poisonous miasma.

"Pop!" "Pap!" "Pap!"

The crisscrossing whip shadows transformed into a net, shattering the poisonous miasma created by the Black Scorch Technique.

"Chi Mingzi, it's best if we don't interfere in this battle between the younger generation."

"Humph!"

Chi Mingzi snorted coldly and commanded the yellow clay urn to fall again.

"It's just a temporary measure."

"Is the power of this Hundred Wood Green Spirit Whip improved since the last one?"

It seems that Fang Yi benefited greatly from his battle with Chi Mingzi. Fortunately, the spiritual medical lineage of Xuan Yang Mountain is incomplete.
Otherwise, if one were to actually cultivate a high-grade third-tier spiritual healer, that would be someone like Huang Guangsheng.

Ruan Xiang, who was remotely controlling the Yuan Chi in Bihai Town, frowned as he gazed at several battlefields where the Core Formation stage was being held.

North of Jiuquan Mountain, Hu Lei clashed with Yun Huizi, thunder roared, and the great river churned.

The mighty hammer and the mysterious spring pearl collided endlessly, their watery hues and lightning equally dazzling.

South of the mountain, Xiao Changce stood on the Azure Flame Lotus Platform, with the Five Flavors Pot of Spiritual Treasures atop his head, surrounded by the aroma of meat.
He commanded a third-tier demon king, suppressing Can Hong, Xuan Zhi, and Yu Fengzi, leaving them with little power to retaliate.

In Shanxi, a chilling cold prevailed. On one side, the Moon-Inviting Mirror emitted spiritual light, casting streaks of icy, cold light.

Even though Fei Xinyuan was a formidable opponent among the Core Formation cultivators, he was still at a disadvantage when commanding a White Bone Demon God.

North of the mountain, Gongni, wearing a gentleman's hat and an ancient Confucian robe with pine patterns, was exchanging blows with Yanli, holding a jade counting rod.

It will be difficult to determine a winner in a short period of time.

Ruan Xiang's thoughts shifted, and an ancient glass mirror appeared in her hand.

As a replica of the treasured Burning Heart Glass Mirror, she could already sense it through the small glass mirror and her position as the leader of the Azure Water Pavilion.
The trend!

With its burgeoning momentum and the convergence of fortunes, Jiuquan Mountain has become the eye of the storm in the Great Cloud Immortal Cultivation World.

A fierce glint appeared in her eyes.

"This battle concerns the very foundation of our sect's lineage; we cannot allow things to continue like this!"

"That old monster Chi Mingzi is shameless. He won't act until he sees the benefit, and he's still holding back now."
A third-tier superior-grade poison master, condensing poison essence, is like a Grand Immortal, surpassing a third-tier poison master by half a body length; their abilities are far more than this.

"Chi Mingzi, I agree to that matter!"

Her lips moved, and she used a sound transmission technique, sending invisible sound waves into the Hall of Bones.

"If Fellow Daoist Ruan Xiang had agreed earlier, there wouldn't have been so many twists and turns."

In the spacious hall, the flickering lamplight elongated Chi Mingzi's figure, and an inexplicable Daoist aura flowed around him.

On Mount Jiuquan, flames raged and waters surged, as two powerful celestial realms, one crimson and one azure, clashed fiercely, eroding each other's strength.
Gazing at the Azure Blood Bodhi Branch, which resembled a dragon and a lithe dragon, exhaling the spiritual light of a hundred trees, it utterly thwarted the Thousand Cocoon Jar.

"With Senior Brother Fang being so strong, I can't hold him back."

With a smile on his lips, Xu Qingshe commanded the Heaven and Earth Furnace to spew forth flames, which, enveloped in golden flames, transformed into a blazing sun that crashed down upon him.

"Wow!"

The water in Bihai Town flows and transforms into a babbling spring, flowing upstream.

"Oh!"

"Hey kid, watch out!"
Ruan Xiang, who has reached the threshold of becoming a sect leader and is halfway there, is no ordinary person.

Inside the bronze ring, 'Old Chen' spoke, issuing a warning.

Ruan Xiang was defeated by Fang Yi not because she was weak, but because Fang Yi was a Xuanwu in armor, a thousand-year-old tortoise.
Too insidious and powerful!

"Haha, Elder Chen, don't worry. The battle at Jiuquan Mountain has been going on for a long time. Senior Brother Fang Yi is using this to prove his medical skills."
My study of the Blood Altar was not entirely fruitless!

With a wave of his sleeve, Xu Qingshe opened his mouth and spat out a stream of pale true fire, which fell into the furnace of heaven and earth.

"boom!"

The gilded flames rose and the pale, dark fire burned, and the golden and white flames evolved into the prototype of a Taoist temple.

"All flames converge, the furnace and ritual hall are warmed, by imperial decree!"

"Wow!"

Flames raged across the sky, and in an instant, the Azure Sea Domain was completely burned to the ground.

"A high-grade, third-tier Bone Spirit Yin Flame?"

The spiritual light on the Yuan Chi in Bihai Town dimmed, and Ruan Xiang's astonished voice rang out.

"Since he was able to obtain this opportunity from Mount Li, this Xu Qingshe is also a menace."
They cannot be kept alive; they must be dealt with together!

A misty light descended from the sky, the Azure Sea Town Ruler rotated, and the water flowed.

The jade ruler exhaled and exhaled mist, simplifying complexity, and then struck down with a single stroke.

"Oh!"

"Crack!"

With a single strike, the aura of the Furnace Dojo instantly diminished, and the gilded runes were shattered.

"Oh!"

With the second strike, the gilded flames dimmed, losing their balance, and the bone spirit's yin flames grew even colder.

"not good!"

Feeling the chilling aura spreading through the furnace-like arena, Xu Qingshe's expression changed drastically, and he unleashed his full magical power to suppress it.

but.
Another foot fell, like a gazelle's horn, tracing a graceful arc before shattering the gilded flames completely.

"Boom!" The flames surged and the furnace dojo was completely destroyed.

"We have both reached the threshold of becoming a sect leader. My cultivation level is similar to Ruan Xiang's, so I'll leave Fang Yi aside."

Ruan Xiang only broke through using the power of the Azure Sea Town Yuan Ruler, how could he be so precise, hitting the weakest point of the Furnace Dojo with all three strikes!

As the magic backfired, Xu Qingshe felt as if his internal organs were burning, and a trace of blood fell from the corner of his mouth.

He took out a pill bottle from his sleeve and hurriedly swallowed a fragrant pill.

Before I could even adjust my breathing
The Azure Sea Town Yuan Chi (a type of ancient Chinese ruler) stirred up waves, which crashed down once more.

"Since Fellow Daoist Ruan Xiang has gone all out, I can no longer hide my intentions."

Inside the Hall of White Bones, sensing the increasingly fierce battle raging in the Nine Springs Mountains, Chi Mingzi's lips curled slightly.

"If this continues, the White Bone Sect disciples will suffer too great a loss, and it will be difficult to explain to Yuan Hai."
Although I am not afraid of him, I will give him face for the sake of this opportunity.

"Edict!"

He extended his long, thin fingers, and five-colored miasma swirled around them, eventually transforming into a pearl the size of a thumb.

"It took a lot of effort to condense this poison essence."

His eyes were sinister, and he licked the corner of his lips with his scarlet tongue, remotely sensing Fang Yi's aura.

"Fang Yi, let's end this battle here."

"Wow!"

A black streak flashed across the sky and landed in the Thousand Cocoon Jar with lightning speed.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Thump!" The yellow clay urn throbbed like a drum, accompanied by the piercing sound of cicadas, and the insect runes shone brightly.

'Poison element?!'

Inside the bronze ring, the usually composed 'Old Chen' suddenly changed his expression, and his divine sense surged forth.

"Watch out, kid Xu!"

Chi Mingzi's condensed poison essence is far beyond that of an ordinary third-tier high-grade poison master.

"How could it be poison?"
Was Chi Mingzi just toying with us?

Xu Qing was horrified; this was a method that could threaten his life.

"Upon mastering the various arts of immortal cultivation to the third-tier superior level, with continuous refinement, those with exceptional talent can temper their very foundation."

The Way of Poison is [Poison Essence], the Way of Spiritual Healing is [Medicinal Qi], the Way of Alchemy is [Elixir Root], and the Way of Array is [Innate Array Pattern].

Even the sect leader would be wary of such trump cards and methods.

"This is bad, the situation is dire!"

Senior Brother Fang's medical skills haven't yet broken through to the upper third rank, so he can't neutralize the poison!

"Gulu.Gulu"

Inside the Thousand Cocoon Jar, brown, gray, white, and red insect eggs of various colors broke, a sticky wriggling sound arose, and dark golden smoke rose.

"The Poisonous Arts' Wonderful Technique: The Thousand Insect Corrosion Incense!"

"Wow!"

Dark golden smoke billowed and spread for miles in an instant, attacking the Core Formation cultivators one by one.

North of Jiuquan Mountain, Hu Lei clashed with Yun Huizi, thunder roared, and the great river churned.

The mighty hammer and the Netherworld Pearl collided incessantly.

"This is?!"

Master Hu Lei looked dazed, his magical power trembled, the lightning dimmed, and the water aura intensified.

"Chance!
"Chi Mingzi truly lives up to his reputation as the number one poison master of the Great Yun Dynasty; he has actually condensed his innate poison essence."

Yun Huizi was overjoyed, her eyes gleaming, and the Water-Washing Swordfish swam out from her sleeve, softly singing.

"The stream flows gently, the autumn air is crisp."

Whenever Hu Lei was about to retaliate, a dark golden poisonous mist would spread out and erode his soul.

"Wow!"

The surging waters instantly and severely damaged a mighty hammer, trapping Hu Lei and firmly suppressing him.

South of the mountain, Xiao Changce stood on the Azure Flame Lotus Platform, with the Five Flavors Pot of Spiritual Treasures atop his head.

"Poisonous essence?"
Poison Masters excel at group battles, and with Chi Mingzi's Poison Essence further aiding him, Fang Yi is in for a tough time in this fight!

With a flick of his finger, a phantom image of a bull-headed, horse-bodied, wolf-toothed, claw-wielding gluttonous beast appeared behind him, roaring to the sky. The aroma of meat gushed out from the Five Delicacies Pot, transforming into a fragrant cloud canopy.

"Wonderful Method: Five Treasures Fragrant Cloud Canopy"

Even so, they could only barely maintain their condition and were not harmed by the poison.

Can Hong, Xuan Zhi, and Yu Fengzi, who were already under immense pressure and had little chance of fighting back, exchanged a glance.

The black water turtle pearl stirred up the tide, the jade ruyi scepter shone brightly as it struck down, and the crimson fist shadow slammed down.

With the help of the poisonous incense, the three of them worked together to gradually turn the tide.
In Shanxi, the fragrance of a thousand insects spreading from the divine realm spread, and the icy light of ice mingled with the dark gold smoke.

"Oh!"

Taking advantage of the opportunity, a skeletal demon god waved its arms and leaped up from the frozen ice prison.

Fei Xinyuan exhaled a breath of stale air, still shaken, and stared intently at the cold and ruthless Yang Cai'er.

"Just a hair's breadth away."
Just a hair's breadth away from completely freezing my White Bone Demon God to death by this icy light.

"This Ice Soul Fairy of Xuan Yang Mountain, who was previously unknown, is actually so difficult to deal with."

"Poisonous Arts and Supernatural Powers?"

Yang Cai'er frowned slightly, and a three-foot-long stick of incense wafted out from her sleeve. With a flick of her slender hand, a spark fell.

The rising fragrance of incense helps to ward off poisonous miasma.

but.
Surrounded by the Thousand Insects Corroding Incense and interfering with the poisonous aura, the power of the Inviting Moon Ancient Mirror decreased by at least 30%.

Shanbei.

Gongni wore a gentleman's hat and an ancient Confucian robe with pine-patterned patterns. He held a jade counting rod and cleaved a turbid wave.

The incense, which had been burning with a thousand insects, arrived, and Gongni appeared dazed.

"Chance!"

With a tap of his staff, Yanli unleashed a dark, triangular beam.

"Pfft!"

Blood splattered everywhere, and Gongni felt excruciating pain in his heart.

A jade talisman appeared from his sleeve, transforming into the Zhen trigram and turning into lightning that enveloped him.

"Want to leave?!"

A clear, cold female voice rang out, and the Azure Sea Town Ruler shone with a brilliant blue light, suppressing the furnace of heaven and earth while a vortex descended.

The immense suction force caused the lightning to pause slightly.
"die!"

Yan Li's face was flushed red, and magical power surged in his meridians as he spurred the dove-staff to strike down.

"Ok?"

As a life-or-death crisis struck, Gongni regained a sliver of clarity from his daze. His eyes were slightly closed, and his soul felt weak.

Seeing Fang Yi entangled by the Thousand Cocoon Jar, and unable to stop the Thousand Insects Corroding the Divine Incense by 50%, he had no choice but to look after him.

Xiao Changce, Hu Lei, and Xu Qingshe were all at a disadvantage, and the situation was almost reversed.

He gave a wry smile, clutching the divination symbol in his hand.

"Alas, one must reach the Foundation Establishment stage at forty and the Core Formation stage at one hundred and twenty."

Three hundred years of cultivation, enduring countless hardships, yet ending up like this.
Master Tianque, did you foresee this?

Between life and death, the golden elixir in Gongni Dantian shone brightly, and the hexagrams shifted, as if he had taken a crucial step forward.

Within his soul, he faintly sensed an ancient altar underground, its runes flowing and emanating a bloodthirsty aura.

And deep within the Nine Springs, a handsome cultivator with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, like a clear sun, calmly watched the dark golden poisonous fragrance spread.

"Is this how things are done within the sect?"

In a daze, Gongni seemed to see a bright sun rising, suppressing the white bone demon god and absorbing the fortune of all directions.

From beginning to end, we were all just pawns.

He murmured to himself, knowing he could not escape death, his face resolute, and he shouted:

"I hope that the Sect Leader will take care of my disciple in the future."
Before Xuan Yang could rise to power, Gong Ni had already departed!

As soon as he finished speaking, he leaped up, his body expanding rapidly like an inflated balloon, and pounced on Yan Li.

"boom!"

A loud explosion rang out, flames burst forth, a scorching spiritual tide surged, and the earth shook violently.

The turbid mud shield rose up, and the salt ginseng vomited fresh blood, causing its vital energy to drop, but it did not damage its fundamental structure.

"Master!"

In a corner of Jiuquan Mountain, Meng Lingxuan's face was contorted with rage, his eyes bulging, and tears of blood streaming down his face.

Du Qingman and Yu Feihong, who were both driven to the brink of despair by the Thousand Insects Corroding Incense, exchanged a glance and gave a bitter laugh.

"Go and rest!"
Go take a break!

"boom!"

"boom!"

A surge of air followed by two more massive spiritual explosions.

Deep within the Nine Springs Mountain, the Azure Spirit Tree, transformed from the Void Realm's Withered and Flourishing Banner, has gnarled and twisted branches. As the spiritual tide surges past, its branches and leaves tremble.
Fang Yi watched from afar as Gong Ni, Du Qingman, and Yu Feihong bravely faced their deaths.

His eyes were cold and indifferent, unmoved.

"Congeal!"

The Azure Lotus of Battle rose before him, and within its pod, a dark golden lotus seed gradually condensed.

"Thousand-worm rot god incense?

"The ultimate poison technique and divine power have finally been achieved, and we've been waiting for Chi Mingzi to make his move."

是 的
At the beginning of their encounter, he already knew that Chi Mingzi was condensing poisonous energy and was ruthless in his methods.

When a fully mastered technique is unleashed, a Core Formation cultivator will inevitably perish.

"Does the Way of Concealing Heavenly Secrets allow one to break through the bottleneck and enter the third stage amidst life and death?"
Not bad
Unfortunately, he was ultimately just a fake alchemist.

He murmured softly, his five fingers reaching towards the dark gold lotus seed, where a crimson poisonous essence surrounded by corpse energy manifested.

"I am also a third-tier superior poison master."
Furthermore, the Thousand Insects Corroding Divine Incense Source is enough to lay the foundation for my spiritual healing path and condense top-grade [Medicinal Qi].
"The difference between medicine and poison lies in a single thought, enough to pave the way for a spiritual healing path that may reach the fourth rank."

"Third-tier superior-grade spiritual masters possess profound skills, yet there are still differences in the strength of their foundation and the breadth of their future prospects."

On Mount Jiuquan, clouds and mist surged.

The blood-red Bodhi branch trembled, its verdant radiance dimmed, and it finally stopped the thousand insects from corrupting the divine incense.

Fang Yi's silhouette was blurry and indistinct, and his expression was grim.

"Chi Mingzi!"

"Um?

What is the meaning of calling me, Fellow Daoist Qingyang?

Could it be that you've changed your mind and intend to join my White Bone Sect?

The crimson phantom solidified, smiling and laughing, yet a chilling intent emanated from the depths of its eyes.

"Unfortunately, things have come to this. Xuan Yang Mountain's defeat is inevitable, and I have no need for Fellow Daoist Qing Yang to pledge allegiance."

"Edict!"

With a flick of his finger, he unleashed a series of magical incantations, causing the illusory image of Chi Mingzi to disintegrate and transform into insect-like runes, completely merging into the Thousand Cocoon Jar.

"Fellow Daoist Qingyangzi, you have tried the Thousand Insects Corroding Divine Incense."

And try the method from last time again.
Imperial decree: The white bones devour divine energy!

Pale poisonous breath surged from the yellow clay urn, transforming into countless centipedes with a thousand legs, their bodies shrouded in miasma.

"Wow!"

The poisonous breath surged and spread towards Jiuquan Mountain once more, attacking the Foundation Establishment cultivators who were fighting fiercely.

Chi Mingzi's eyes were cold. Fang Yi had a solid foundation and his ability to control magic was among the best in the Great Cloud Realm.

In close combat, they are difficult to defeat.
But no one is perfect, and no one is without any weaknesses.
"Fellow Daoist Qingyangzi, what should you choose?"
Should we abandon the suppression of the spiritual vein and devote all our efforts to saving our fellow disciples, or should we allow the Foundation Establishment cultivators to die and the Core Formation cultivators to perish?

"Oh!"

Forced back several steps by the azure ruler's shadow, Xu Qingshe's face was gloomy, and he muttered to himself.

'Both of them have reached the threshold of becoming a sect leader, so it's one thing for Senior Brother Fang to be troublesome. But why are Chi Mingzi and Ruan Xiang both so difficult to deal with?'

"Giggle"
"Qingyangzi, I am also curious, what will your choice be?"

As the water flowed, Ruan Xiang's illusory figure ignored Xu Qingshe's ugly expression, laughing heartily. With a wave of her hand, the Azure Sea Town Ruler once again ignited the heavens and earth.

His vast divine sense flowed, locking onto a gnarled and ancient tree in the Nine Springs Mountain.

"No matter what choice you make, the final result is generally the same."

Fang Yi, you tried your best, but you still failed.

"choose?"

"With the abandonment of the suppression of spiritual veins by the Void Realm Withering and Flourishing Banner, and the loss of the restraint of the laws, this Nine Springs Mountain is very different."

You two are about to unleash your full power and fully demonstrate the might of the Sect Leader. I am no match for you.
If we don't give up.
"If our fellow disciples are poisoned to death, Jiuquan Mountain will not last long."

Fang Yi's eyes were deep and mysterious as he sensed from afar that a sinister aura and miasma swirled around him, along with a long, flowing stream of water and surging azure spiritual light.

Both are poised to act.

As soon as he leaves this place, they will immediately attack and surround and kill him.

"Is he trapped in a deadly situation?"

"Fang Yi, stop struggling."

Beside Mount Jiuquan, the main gate of the Hall of White Bones was wide open. Crimson robes fluttered as Chi Mingzi slowly stepped out, his divine sense transforming into a net, probing towards Mount Jiuquan.

Behind him, an insect-like rune flowed, transforming into a dark gold Dharma wheel that rotated.

"Fellow Daoist Ruan Xiang, prepare to make your move."
"Now that things have come to this, regardless of Fang Yi's choice, the outcome of this battle is already decided."

"Fang Yi is indeed a remarkable person."

A flash of admiration crossed Ruan Xiang's eyes. With a clench of her slender hand, a treasure map appeared, its watery ripples spreading outwards from Jiuquan Mountain in all directions.

"Thank you for your help, Fellow Daoist Chi Mingzi."

Fang Yi, with his strong-willed nature, would certainly not allow his disciples to die.
Once they make their move, we'll be sending them on their way.

"Even if we let Core Formation True Immortals like Hu Lei, Xiao Changce, and Xu Qingshe go, Fang Yi will still die and his cultivation will be extinguished!"

"Waiting for me to make a move?"

Holding a dark golden lotus seed in his hand, he sensed the second pale lotus seed gradually solidifying within the lotus platform.

"If it were in the Nine Springs Mountain, there would only be four Core Formation True Persons: Master, Junior Brother Hu Lei, Junior Brother Qing She, and Junior Sister Cai'er."

Whether or not a move is made, it's a dead end.

"No matter what, suppressing the spiritual veins and watching one disciple after another perish, the battle is heading towards defeat step by step."

"The fact that they didn't suppress the spiritual veins but instead offered medical assistance suggests that Ruan Xiang and Chi Mingzi had been plotting against them for a long time."

"but."

"Wow!"

He suddenly chuckled, and a ray of spiritual light fell from his sleeve, landing behind him.

As the prohibitions crumbled, a vast vitality rose from the bamboo building behind Fang Yi, with a clear spring flowing and evolving into a phenomenon of all rivers converging, stirring up changes in the wind and clouds.

"Boom!"

Thunder roared, calamity gathered, and thick, leaden clouds spread for miles.

"Elixir Tribulation?"

"A pill tribulation?!"

Yunzhi, Yufengzi, and Feixinyuan's joyful expressions instantly froze.
