Forge your destiny into a sword, slash your soul and ascend to immortality

Chapter 164 The Calamity of the Heavenly Demon Child Su Clan

The flesh and blood of a real dragon are extremely precious. Apart from Jing Qian and Su Yan, who didn't care much, the others ate it quite exquisitely.

The meal took a full two hours to finish.

Of the entire dragon, seven or eight tenths of its meat ended up in the bellies of [Good Corn] and the raccoon dog.

They only looked at the dogs and horses in the corner with envy, their lips turning purple.

Seeing that they had almost finished eating, Jing Qian called off the meal and said:
"Senior Su, let me test your marksmanship."

After saying that, he vanished from the spot in a flash.

The next second, Su Yan picked up her gun and transformed into a dragon of light, soaring straight into the sky.

There are many ordinary people in the hot pot city. When the light dragon swept across the sky, it also caused a stir among the crowd.

This is the core area of ​​the [Zao Wang Dian] sect, and it's rare to see such uninhibited cultivators here.

Jing Qian appeared high in the sky, standing silently, still connected by blood, waiting for Su Yan to track him down.

At this moment, although he only has the cultivation level of [Subduing Spirit], his entire system is almost complete, and his combat power is already at its maximum.

Su Yan wasn't even a [Guozi], so he didn't even consider her a threat.

He summoned the [Sacrificial Immortal Sword Embryo], which transformed into a thin, delicate sword aura, resembling filigree in cloisonné enamel, swirling around his body.

This is the first battle for this sword of the soul, and we are going to use a martial arts officer from the [Wuji Heavenly Dynasty] as a sacrifice for the sword.

Not long after, a terrifying dragon of light rushed towards her, and Su Yan then transformed from it, standing a hundred feet away.

This female general from the Su Clan held a twelve-foot-long silver spear, raised horizontally, pointing it directly at Jing Qian's brow. Her armor protected her head and face, making her extremely valiant.

She spoke first:
"Jingqian, you dare to attack!"

"I'll give you the first move. If you can defeat me, whether you go to the Celestial Empire or not is up to you."

"Later, I'll stab you too. If you can't take it, I'll change your name. From now on, I'll call you Su Jing, okay?"

Jing Qian shook his head after hearing this, without saying a word.

The person opposite me, a fellow member of the [Star-Picking] clan, comes from the capital city of [Tianjing], and is quite arrogant and ungrateful.

She couldn't see her own true strength; her perspective was quite limited.

Seeing how well she was putting on an act, Jing Qian didn't stand on ceremony with her. The spiritual sword light surrounding him vanished in a flash.

The [Sacrificial Immortal Sword Embryo] had already transformed into a beam of spiritual light, gently piercing into the depths of Su Yan's heart.

This sword of the mind, the sword of consciousness, the sword of thought, is the most mysterious and strange among all the immortal swords that Ren Chong has forged in his life.

In particular, it is based on the complete divine essence of a first-rank deity, the Supreme God, and is therefore imbued with divine blessings.

Although cultivators who believe in the divine path may have weak combat power and mixed magical abilities, in terms of manipulating minds and souls, they are, to some extent, even superior to cultivators who follow the path of the [Heart Demon].

Jing Qian relied on the [Six Paths of Reincarnation and Three Lives Eye] and was further blessed by the [Blood Sea], which activated the [Sacrificial Immortal Sword Embryo], resulting in a unique and miraculous effect.

Standing before him, Su Yan was like a completely defenseless target on a psychological level, allowing him to manipulate her at will.

He planned to help her adjust her mindset and make her realize how fatal the flaws in her own Dao heart could be.

As the first sword light fell, Su Yan flicked her spear, and an intense killing intent arose within her, impossible to suppress.

She felt extremely awkward inside, but her body still moved involuntarily, thrusting her spear out like a dragon, attacking Jing Qian with all her might.

Su Yan's combat strength was extremely solid, and this shot was a testament to her skill. However, she felt as if her Dao heart had been lost, as if she were being controlled by someone.

Just as her killing intent reached its peak, she suddenly felt a chill in her heart, as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over her burning passion.

At this moment, she had transformed from a demon into a Buddha, no longer harboring any murderous intent. She also withdrew the large spear from her hand and placed it beside her.

This beloved dragon spear, which was originally her life-and-death companion and a powerful weapon for killing, made her feel a sense of disgust towards it.

The dragon spear in his hand possessed a spirit and sensed that its master was not in a good state. It hurriedly flashed with magical light and emitted bursts of howls.

This only fueled Su Yan's disgust, and she threw the dragon spear in her hand away.

This top-grade [Spiritual Ability] hovered in the air, completely dumbfounded.

All of Su Yan's reactions were under the control of the [Sacrificial Immortal Sword Embryo].

Jing Qian seemed to have transformed into a top-notch neurosurgeon, repairing Su Yan's brain.

It was like a professional psychotherapist helping her heal her emotional trauma.

The other person's thoughts and ideas were like Lego bricks in his hands, which he could knead, manipulate, and freely combine at will.

The rise and fall of Su Yan's murderous intent were entirely under his control.

But this is just the most basic operation!
Another sword thread flashed, completely shattering Su Yan's mental defenses and removing the backbone that allowed her to maintain her personal stability.

"嘤嘤嘤!"

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!"

This powerful being, who had reached the pinnacle of power, was actually brought to tears!

"Sister, waaaaah!"

"I am pretty tired!"

After Su Jin's death, the power and status of the entire Su family fell entirely on the shoulders of the Su sisters, Su Yan and Su Yan. But how could two orphaned girls support the family that was the "Top of the Hundred Families"?

For thousands of years, Su Yan has always maintained a sharp edge, competing and vying for everything, never daring to stop for a moment.

Even so, it was difficult to stop the gradual decline of the Su family.

The feelings of depression and exhaustion had long been buried deep in my heart.

Normally, relying on a firm Daoist mind, these negative emotions are completely hidden.

In Jingqian's hands, however, these emotions became bombs that could be detonated at any moment.

A wave of psychological shock caused Su Yan to completely break down and burst into tears.

Jing Qian shook his head, then swung his sword again, shattering the other party's negative emotions in one strike.

Immediately afterwards, Su Yan's emotions took a complete 180-degree turn. Overwhelmed by joy, excitement, and exhilaration, she even laughed out loud again.

"Hahahaha!"

"Hahahaha!"

This powerful being, who had been transformed by Jing Qian into a mad beauty, had long since abandoned any thoughts of combat and had begun to go insane.

Jing Qian completely disregarded this, treating Su Yan merely as a tool, arbitrarily manipulating her emotions and desires.

Su Yan's emotions fluctuated wildly: sometimes crying, sometimes laughing, sometimes angry, sometimes sorrowful.

She had never experienced anything so stimulating in her life; her emotions surged like a tsunami, and she could hardly control herself.

This battle is completely unwinnable!
"what?"

Just as Jing Qian was teasing Su Yan to the point of near collapse, a dark line buried deep in her heart quietly appeared.

This black line, like a thin strand of hair, was tightly wrapped around Su Yan's mind and deeply buried in her emotions and desires.

If Jing Qian hadn't caused such a commotion, triggering her intense emotional fluctuations, it would have been impossible for her to be discovered.

This was actually an emotional poison deeply buried in the bloodline of the Su family.

He then manipulated the [Sacrificial Immortal Sword Embryo] to create countless sword threads, which he used to slash at himself.

He traced the Su family bloodline within his body back to the depths of his soul, searching carefully, and surprisingly, he also discovered a similar black thread deep within his own heart.

Without hesitation, he manipulated the sword light to completely sever the black thread.

In an instant, a ray of spiritual light illuminated my body and soul!

Jing Qian unexpectedly experienced a wonderful feeling of spiritual liberation.

……

Within a mountain realm of the Eastern Pole Yu Yu Chang Sheng Tian, ​​there is a magnificent scene of fireworks blooming in the human world.

The annual "Flower Queen Competition" is being held here!
Ninety-nine brothels, each sending out a carefully selected courtesan to compete in beauty and skill, vying for the title of the year's most beautiful courtesan.

The winner will naturally enjoy immense prestige and countless benefits!

At this very moment, the one showcasing her talents on stage is Lady San San, selected by Yu Su Lou.

These three are pretty and charming, so lovely that I feel sorry for them. They have an elegant demeanor and are not at all lewd.

What's even more amazing is that she had a master's guidance and wore a white horse-face skirt that revealed her legs on the side, showing off her straight, snow-white legs, and wearing black stockings. She looked both innocent and alluring, making the surrounding audience's blood boil.

San San's dance moves are enchanting; she's a skilled and talented dancer, and everyone loves her.

Suddenly, a crucial strand of the black stocking on her left leg snapped, causing the entire stocking to come ripped and fall out from under her skirt.

The perverts in the audience experienced an immediate orgasm and screamed wildly.

While San San blushed with embarrassment, she felt a surge of anger inside.

"Which fellow practitioner is so blind as to come looking for trouble with me?"

"I will have to trouble myself to go back to Beitian and clean up the Su family, lest I lose control of that scoundrel Su Jin and he gets away."

"This is so annoying!"

……

Jing Qian reflected on his own situation through Su Yan's example and successfully discovered a deeply hidden trace of demonic poison within his mind, which can be considered a great gain.

This wisp of demonic poison, since the moment he was born, has been deeply rooted in his soul along with his bloodline.

It had never manifested in all his years of cultivation before!

Even though this trace of demonic poison was extremely weak and had not been activated.

However, if it is provoked by the enemy at a critical moment, it will naturally be a great calamity!

The Su family bloodline is truly a traitor; they haven't gained much benefit, but have been burdened with hatred and curses.

Jing Qian was still not at ease, so he used various methods to carefully examine every corner of his body.

Only after ensuring his own absolute safety did he turn his gaze to Su Yan in front of him.

This "Star-Picking" spirit official was almost completely ruined; she hovered blankly in the air, speechless.

Her physical body was unharmed, and her magical powers were intact, but her emotions were completely broken down, her personality collapsed, and she experienced great difficulties in self-awareness.

Jing Qian's [Sacrificial Immortal Sword Embryo] demonstrated its power in its first battle, allowing his system to make significant progress on a spiritual level.

However, given Su Yan's current condition, it would be almost impossible for her to recover from her injuries on her own, and she would certainly suffer psychological trauma.

Jing Qian and the Su family were not enemies, and he would never have gone so far as to completely cripple Su Yan.

He waved his hand and shot out a stream of blood-red water, which splashed all over Su Yan's head and face.

This [Sea of ​​Blood] is miraculous, and has a remarkable effect on nourishing the mind and repairing injuries to the soul.

Su Yan's soul injuries were rapidly healing beneath the blood spring.

Her mental recovery also empowered the demonic poison within her, drawing strength from this force.

Unexpectedly, this demonic poison, connected by bloodline, emanated from Su Yan and attacked Jing Qian.

Jing Qian acted decisively, unleashing the [Sacrificial Immortal Sword Embryo] once more, shattering the incoming demonic poison.

He also generously unleashed streaks of sword energy that pierced into Su Yan's mind, completely eradicating the demonic poison from her.

Not only that, he raised his hand from high above and pointed, sending a thick beam of spiritual sword light crashing down.

Su Zhao and Su Min'er, who were ascending in a carriage, were inexplicably struck by the sword light.

Deep within their souls lay hidden demonic poisons, which were easily eradicated by the sword light.

Jing Qian and Su Min'er were not deeply affected by the demonic poison. After the poison was removed, they only felt their minds were clear and their spiritual awareness greatly increased.

However, Su Yan and Su Zhao, both powerful [Star Pickers] who had cultivated for thousands of years, experienced a qualitative change in their cultivation after the demonic poison was removed.

This demonic poison, deeply embedded in the Su family's bloodline, originated from the "Heavenly Demon Child," the Three Paths Woman.

This demon prince of the Heavenly Demon Path is of the same generation as the Eyeless One. His cultivation has long reached the peak of the second rank, and he can continue to break through and advance to the first rank at any time.

The demonic poison she used to kill Su Jingong was of the same rank as Jing Qian's [Buddha's Salvation], both being unique [Heavenly Mandate] level. However, the entire tactical system of the [Three Paths Woman] was built around the [Inner Demon] path.

The inner demon poison she unleashed was far more powerful than Jing Qian's [Buddha's Sword of Salvation].

This terrifying poison is insidious and vicious.

First, it is deeply embedded in the bloodline of the Su family, almost impossible to remove, and can even affect the continuation of the bloodline, leading to the extinction of the Su family line.

Secondly, it can suppress the mental growth of all Su family members, leaving a hidden door in their minds unintentionally.

When the "Three Paths Woman" sees the Su family again, she can detonate it at will, like a mental bomb buried deep in her heart exploding, easily killing her opponent.

Third, any member of the Su family who is afflicted with the demonic poison will never be able to advance to the upper three ranks.

Even if one has already advanced to the third rank while poisoned, there is no possibility of further advancement.

This is a demonic poison powerful enough to destroy the Su family!

The fact that the [Hundred Veins at the Top of the Tower] could be destroyed so easily demonstrates the terrifying power of the [Heavenly Demon Child].

However, the Three Paths Woman never imagined that the Su family, which was already at its end, could give birth to such an extraordinary person as Jing Qian.

Not only did his cultivation journey unfold with sparks and lightning, but he also obtained a first-grade spiritual weapon, the "Immortal Sword Embryo," and truly found a way to eradicate the demonic poison.

Su Yan and Su Zhao have lingered at the [Star-Picking] level for thousands of years.

With their talent and accumulated experience, if it weren't for the demonic poison, they would have broken through the Heavenly Barrier and advanced to the Upper Three Ranks long ago.

Jing Qian casually removed the demonic poison from the two, which conveniently broke their seal.

In an instant, the ascension journeys of the two powerful beings, which had been suppressed for thousands of years, were completely activated.

In the void, two enormous [Destiny Stars] emerged from two hidden locations, revealing their forms in the void, swaying and shining.

One of them was originally suspended high above the [Yingfu Pagoda Realm], and was nurtured by Su Zhao for many years.

Another star, originally dormant in the Star Ranch, shines alongside the destiny stars of over seven thousand Star-Picking-level Spirit Officials, and is guarded by three Great Spirit Officials.

At this moment, the two [Destiny Stars] emitted extremely dazzling bursts of energy, connecting with the auras of their hosts, Su Yan and Su Zhao.

For a cultivator to break through to the third-grade [Heaven-Mending] level, they need to completely refine their [Destiny Star] within the fourth grade.

Furthermore, the core of primordial energy hidden within the [Destiny Star] is incorporated into one's own sea of ​​consciousness, opening up a direct passage to the [Sea of ​​Primordial Qi].

From this point on, cultivators will fully possess the extraordinary abilities of void creatures, and their vital energy will spontaneously generate from their sea of ​​consciousness.

For 99% of cultivators, this Yuan Qi core is their only chance in this lifetime to open a path to the [Sea of ​​Yuan Qi].

After all, the rare treasure [Primordial Qi Mandate] is almost exclusively for Dao Children and is virtually impossible to condense through conventional channels.

Ordinary cultivators may not even have heard of the "Primordial Qi Mandate".

Over the past three thousand years, Su Zhao and Su Yan have already refined their [Destiny Star] to its ultimate level.

With these shackles removed, the two of them almost instantly swallowed the core energy of their respective [Destiny Star] into their sea of ​​consciousness.

A surge of powerful magical energy erupted from the two of them, stirring up a great storm within the [Yingfutu Realm].

The two powerful figures from the Su clan instantly advanced together, achieving the third-rank [Heaven-Mending] level!
After years of decline, the Su family, the Heavenly Privy Councilor, has finally been given another chance to be reborn!

Jing Qian stood aside and watched the entire process unfold.

In the battle just now, he had already completely dismantled Su Yan's cultivation from the inside out.

By carefully observing her promotion with the [Three Lives Eye], we have undoubtedly obtained a valuable sample of her advancement.

Using this as a mirror for self-cultivation is naturally quite useful.

After completing their cultivation, the two powerful beings did not waste time adjusting themselves. Instead, they transformed into streaks of light and descended before Jing Qian.

The two men bowed, supporting each other, and began to speak:
"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Jingqian, for freeing the Su family from the calamity of demonic poison and wishing us both to attain enlightenment."

Jing Qian waved his hand, refusing to accept the credit.

If the demonic poison of the three is not removed, the poison of the "Three Paths Woman" will continue to erode him.

From his own perspective, it was only natural for him to remove the demonic poison from the Su family members.

Before he advances to the fifth-rank [Earthly Fiend] realm and completely alters his bloodline origin according to the [Yanfu Dao] secret method, the bloodline bond between him and the Su family is unbreakable!
At this moment, Su Yan spoke again:
"Fellow Daoist Jing, I acted rashly last time."

"I never knew you were the contemporary Chunyangzi. In that case, you must look down on my Su family's dilapidated little temple."

Despite being slashed by Jing Qian's sword from the inside out for several lifetimes, Su Yanruo still couldn't discover Jing Qian's identity, meaning her thousands of years of cultivation had been in vain.

Once Jing Qian acquired the identity of the Dao Child, the bloodline symbol quickly weakened, giving way to the identity of the Dao Child.

If Su Yan continues to act like an elder, she'll just be completely out of touch with reality.

Moreover, and more importantly, she had been completely defeated by Jing Qian.

Even though she had already advanced to the third rank of [Heaven Mending], she couldn't muster the will to resist for a moment.

Then she said:

"Daozi, please speak to me privately. There are some secrets concerning the Su family that can only be revealed to the two of us."

What she was about to say was something even Su Zhao couldn't know!

Jing Qian nodded and said:

"That's exactly what I meant!"

Immediately afterwards, Su Yan erected a magical barrier, enveloping her and Jing Qian within it.

She then spoke again:
"The poison that Daozi has buried deep within the soul of my Su family was completely unknown to me, my sister, and the other Great Spirit Officials of the Heavenly Dynasty until today."

"Although you helped me escape this time, my elder sister Su Qing is still in [Tianjing Star], suffering from demonic poison."

"If you can remove the demonic poison from my sister, then with her talent, she should be able to advance to the second rank."

"With all the accumulation over the years, my elder sister might be able to carve three words directly on the [Destiny Stele]."

"In this way, she would have the possibility of inheriting the duties of her ancestor, the Privy Councilor."

"Even if one cannot inherit the position of [Privy Councilor], one can still be granted other [Grand Spirit Officer] positions."

"This is extremely important to the Su family!"

"I beg you, Daozi, for the sake of our blood ties, to come with me to [Tianjing Star] and cure my sister of the demonic poison."

"Furthermore, my visit to the [Yingfutu Realm] is on the Empress's orders to guide all descendants of the Su clan in this realm back to [Tianjing Star]."

"It is not that I want to force Daozi to return with me, but that Daozi should have already caught the Empress's eye."

"If I cannot bring you back, it is my dereliction of duty, and the Celestial Empire's system will punish me accordingly."

"But now that the Empress has seen it, there's no way you can escape it!"

"For now, the Empress is still appearing in her human form and will not use any harsh methods."

"If it were to be revealed as the [Celestial Appearance] or the [Divine Appearance], the Imperial Guards would have to be mobilized and the [Grand Spirit Officer] dispatched."

"From any perspective, it is the best option for Daozi to return together."

Jing Qian nodded after hearing this, feeling as if many causes and effects were intertwined, involuntarily pushing him toward the [Boundless Heavenly Dynasty].

He had seven or eight points of suspicion that this was another calamity caused by the [Pure Yang Heaven], forcing him out of the comfortable environment of the [Yingfu Pagoda Realm] and making him face a new tribulation.

At this moment, he had almost completely subdued the [Yingfutu Realm].

Within the realm, one can obtain whatever one desires, cultivation proceeds smoothly, and there are no more challenges.

Meanwhile, Gu Lin, a powerful external enemy who could potentially affect him, was also wiped out by several Chunyangzi members working together, along with the forces behind him.

He was no longer under any pressure to cultivate and advance in his career.

In this situation, the calamity covering the Pure Yang Heaven will inevitably cause even greater turmoil, forcing him to confront it.

And looking at the entire [Bei'e Yinghuang Wuji Tian], there is no place more suitable to stir up calamity than [Tianjing Star]!

The highly accomplished princes and dukes, the intricate and complex [Hundred Veins at the Top of the Tower], and the unpredictable and elusive [Goddess Egao].

They are all excellent materials for robbery!

From the perspective of his personal cultivation, the [Wuji Heavenly Dynasty] has abundant cultivation resources, high-quality fellow cultivators and opponents, and the [Doushuai Furnace] hidden in the Empress's palace.

These are all key elements that he cannot refuse or miss.

Now that things have come to this point, whether by choice or by force, he has to prepare to set off!
Once he made up his mind, Jingqian felt an overwhelming sense of anticipation rising within him!
I'm finally leaving the newbie village to venture into the big city and see the real world.

Having accumulated so much strength and resources in the [Yingfutu Realm], it's truly like wearing fine clothes in the dark when you can't even find a reliable opponent.

If I can defeat everyone on my way to [Tianjing Star], then my path to enlightenment will be much more secure.

Moreover, compared to his predecessors, he has the Su family as an excellent entry point.

This would allow him to integrate into the [Wuji Celestial Empire] in a more subtle way.

At that time, his identities as [Chunyangzi] and [Yanfuzi] will be hidden in the shadows, allowing him to play a greater role.

If things go as he wants, and he can also obtain the position of "Guozi" (Imperial Scholar), then he will have won all the titles of the three Daoist scholars in the Northern Heaven.

[Three Lives Eye] Following this line of thought, the deductions continued, and Jing Qian finally spoke to Su Yan:

“Senior, I know everything you have said. But if you want me to break my cultivation rhythm and the great situation in the Yingfu Pagoda Realm to start anew in the Tianjing Star, the Su family will not provide any compensation. That won’t do.”

"I'll be frank with you. Please tell me directly what kind of assistance or resources the Su family can provide me right now."

"If we can agree on a price, I would like to join the Celestial Empire system as a member of the Su family."

Jing Qian began to extort money relentlessly in order to maximize his own interests.

Su Yan was not surprised by this, as she had already made plans in her mind.

She then spoke:
“My Su family is not large. Apart from my elder sister Su Qing, the rest of my bloodline are all here.”

"If Daozi chooses to take on the identity of my Su family, my Su family is willing to open everything within the family to you."

"You can accept all of these unconditionally, including resources, inheritance, organization, connections, and even the favors that Su Jin Gong accumulated back then."

"Even my sister and I can step back and hand over the Su family business entirely to you!"

Jing Qian shook his head after hearing this; he did not doubt Su Yan's determination in saying these words.

He also fully believed that the sisters Su Yan and Su Qing were genuinely willing to use the Su family's resources to provide him with tremendous help.

But what the other party said did not sway Jing Qian.

Su Yan was being cunning with him again, taking advantage of his lack of knowledge about the rules and intelligence of the [Wuji Heavenly Dynasty], and didn't actually bring out the Su family's hard currency.

Jing Qian just opened his mouth and said:
"Senior, the Su family resources you mentioned do sound quite impressive."

"However, it's not what I value most."

"Let me state my requirements, and see if you can accept them."

"If you can accept this, then the matter of detoxifying Senior Su Qing can naturally be resolved as well."

He paused for a moment before speaking again:
"In addition to the Su family resources you promised."

"I want a tower that belongs solely to me in the top area of ​​the [Tianjing Star] Tower!"

"I also need the protection of the Su family to obtain a mid-grade [Spiritual Official] position."

"Moreover, the duties of this [Spirit Officer] must be directly related to [Star Ranch] or [Book Mountain]."

"Finally, I want to participate in the next selection process for the Imperial College!"

"We urge Mr. Su to seize this opportunity for selection."

"Furthermore, the Su family needs to do everything in their power to help me pass the selection process and obtain the position of [Guozi]."

Jing Qian put forward three major demands in a firm and forceful manner, which shocked Su Yan immensely!

Only someone who has thoroughly understood the true nature of the [Wuji Celestial Empire] could make such a targeted request.

Given the remaining strength of the Su family at this point, fulfilling all three of Jing Qian's requirements would be no easy task!
This would require serious bleeding and potentially serious injury!
However, for Jing Qian, taking advantage of the opportunity of changing jobs to ask for a house, a new position, and a school district is just routine.

If the other party doesn't even have this much sincerity, then don't blame him for taking action.
