Simultaneous travel: I am a talented person in all the worlds

Chapter 512 Spirit Control Sect? Ghost Spirit Sect?
Outside Lanzhou Prefecture, at a stronghold of the Jingjiao Society.

Yan paced anxiously back and forth in the room.

Even though she kept reminding herself to stay calm and composed, the immense unease stemming from the unknown still made her restless.

The sky is bright.

"Squeak-"

Dressed in dark black clothes, carrying a faint smell of blood, Wang appeared silently in the room.

Madam Yan hurriedly stepped forward, grabbed her arm, and the anxiety in her heart turned into a gentle inquiry: "Fifth Sister, are you hurt?"

Wang ignored her question and coldly replied, "Liu Yi, the leader of the Five Colors Sect, along with his most valued son, have all been personally killed by me. I have verified their identities multiple times; there is no mistake."

Upon hearing this news, the heavy weight that had been hanging over Yan's heart finally lifted.

She breathed a long sigh of relief: 'It seems this time, her gamble paid off.'

With the power mobilized by the Jingjiao Society this time, it was only natural that they would crush a mere Five-Colored Sect.

Her only worry was that during this process, a cultivator she couldn't possibly defeat would intervene.

It now appears that in this battle among the immortals that she cannot see, Mo Yu's side clearly holds the advantage.

Even after the Five Colors Gate was destroyed, the cultivators on the other side did not show themselves.

This is undoubtedly the best outcome for her and the Jingjiao Society.

But then, the second thing Wang mentioned made her heart, which had just settled down, jump up again, and she even felt a sharp pain in her heart.

"I will transfer all the Dark Guards away soon. You will need to figure out how to swallow and digest the vast territory left behind after the destruction of the Five Colors Sect in the shortest possible time."

Wang remained expressionless, like an emotionless megaphone: "Furthermore, the young master has ordered you to consolidate the power throughout Lanzhou as soon as possible. The Li family can be sent to unite with the government; the Liu family can be sent to befriend the local gentry."

"Do not covet power!"

Yan's expression changed slightly.

Although the Jingjiao Society now has an unprecedentedly large territory, not only does it control all of Lanzhou, but it also occupies at least half of the land in Jingzhou.

Even after sharing some of her power, the influence she wields still far exceeds what it once was.

However, this completely shattered the original hierarchy within the Mo family, which had always placed her at the top.

The three wives, Li, Liu, and Wang, all possessed, to varying degrees, the strength to rival her.

She was a woman who was extremely power-hungry.

She knew in her heart that she was no longer able to manage such a large force on her own, but she still did not want to relinquish power!
Yan frowned, opened her mouth, and seemed about to argue.

But Wang's cold, indifferent eyes simply watched her quietly.

She came with the young master's orders, not to discuss things with her, but to inform her!

The words that were on the tip of Yan's tongue churned around several times, but in the end, she swallowed them back down.

She was well aware of this as well.

Wang is a mindless zealot; arguing with her is pointless.

Unfortunately, within the Mo family mansion today, only the Wang family member has the means to directly contact the young master.

Even if Yan wanted to appeal to Mo Yu, she couldn't find a way to do so.

As for disobeying orders?

Ha, Mo Yu didn't even need to lift a finger.

The secret guards in the Wang family's hands, capable of overturning the entire Yue Kingdom's martial arts world, can be used to kill foreign enemies, so... can't they be used for internal affairs?

Don't forget, from the very beginning when my late husband Mo Juren established Dark Helm, its most fundamental purpose was to restrain her internal methods!

……

Meanwhile, in Lanzhou Prefecture.

The cultivators from the Spirit Beast Mountain Sect stationed here are still unaware that Liu Yi, the sect leader of the Five Colors Sect and the pawn they supported, has already died and vanished.

Because Liu Yi, after receiving news that "the main force of the Jingjiao Society is attacking," took the initiative to lead his team out of the city to meet the attack, and then... was surrounded and beaten to death by more than a dozen martial arts masters of the same level as him.

On his deathbed, he himself couldn't understand where all these unknown top-tier masters had come from, appearing out of nowhere in the martial arts world of Yue. How come he hadn't even heard a whisper of them?

Since he himself hadn't anticipated this, it was naturally impossible for him to seek help from the immortal masters of Spirit Beast Mountain beforehand.

The cultivators who remained within the city were naturally unable to detect the fall of this pawn immediately.

Among them, Kang and Jiang, after waiting in vain for several days, finally could not hold back and came to the Hundred Flowers Pavilion again to find Xu Yan.

Junior Brother Jiang's face was so gloomy it was almost dripping with water: "That old bastard surnamed Fu, we brothers have already killed him for you. You're not planning to renege on the debt of the remaining spirit stones, are you?"

Senior Brother Kang didn't speak, but his powerful aura from the eleventh level of Qi Refining was already locked onto Xu Yan, making it clear that he was ready to attack at the slightest provocation.

Xu Yan's cultivation was inferior to the two, and her face turned slightly pale under the suppression of their auras, but she was still able to remain calm.

She half-covered her pretty face with the round fan in her hand and chuckled, "You two immortal masters are too kind. I am just a rogue cultivator making a living in Lanzhou City. How could I dare to steal your spirit stones? I am just going through the motions and sending someone to confirm whether the target is really dead."

"It's just a coincidence. The person I sent to confirm has just returned. I was just thinking of sending someone to invite you two, but unexpectedly, you two came on your own."

As she spoke, she instructed a trusted woman beside her, "Keep an eye on things inside the building. I'll be right back."

After speaking, she made a gesturing gesture towards Kang and Jiang:

"You two, please."

Senior Brother Kang and Junior Brother Jiang exchanged a glance, but neither of them suspected anything.

After all, his previous transactions with this woman had all taken place in such private settings, rather than in public.

What they did was something that couldn't be brought to light.

The two followed Xu Yan and arrived at the rockery in the backyard, familiar with the way.

Xu Yan opened the mechanism again, revealing the secret passage leading to the underground chamber.

She gestured to the two of them again, then lifted her skirt and began to descend.

Kang and Jiang, without suspecting anything, followed closely behind.

However, as soon as Fang Yi stepped into the secret passage!

At the same time, the two felt an intensely powerful and suffocating spiritual energy, like a blazing sun hanging overhead!

"No! There's an ambush!"

Their expressions changed simultaneously!
Without a second thought, he wanted to back down!

However, the entrance to the secret passage had been completely sealed off by a golden barrier at some point!

The golden shield was indestructible. Even when the two of them attacked together, it only caused a few ripples and could not be shaken at all!

"You vile wench! How dare you harm a disciple of the sect?! Are you tired of living and looking for death?!" Junior Brother Jiang was furious and turned to Xu Yan, who had already retreated to the depths of the secret chamber, and cursed her.

Senior Brother Kang is a ruthless man who doesn't talk much.

He suddenly lifted his coat, revealing a dozen or so bags of various sizes and colors hanging inside.

With his sword fingers forming a hand seal and his mouth chanting incantations, a series of flashes of spiritual light appeared, and several bag openings opened simultaneously. Countless venomous winged insects, like a tidal wave, buzzed and swept towards Xu Yan!

Although Xu Yan's cultivation level was low, her spellcasting speed was extremely fast.

With a flick of her jade hand, tenacious vines rose from the ground, crisscrossing within the narrow tunnel and instantly weaving a net that firmly blocked the swarm of insects.

However, the corpses of the flying insects strangled by the vines suddenly exploded, turning into clouds of yellowish-green poisonous mist! Accompanied by a hissing, corrosive sound, a nauseating, and dizzying stench filled the narrow tunnel!

Deep within the secret chamber, the mortal Mo Yu put down the book in his hand and waved his hand in disgust.

He did not cast any spells, but simply released his extremely yang and hot yang spiritual energy.

In an instant, golden light burst forth!

The remaining flying insects and poisonous mist were like ice and snow encountering the scorching sun; they didn't even have time to utter a mournful cry before being burned and purified clean by the overwhelming power!

"Thirteenth level of Qi Refining!"

Upon seeing this, Senior Brother Kang and Junior Brother Jiang looked horrified and exclaimed in surprise at the same time.

The two looked at each other, their hearts sinking to the bottom.

Knowing he had been ambushed, he feared he would not escape alive today.

Senior Brother Kang forced a smile that looked more like a grimace, cupped his hands, and said, "This fellow Daoist looks unfamiliar. We have no past grudges or recent enmity, so why put us both to death?"

"Why don't you show mercy and let us go? We will be eternally grateful for your kindness!"

Junior Brother Jiang glanced at Mo Yu's yellow robe, which was the standard attire of Huangfeng Valley, and quickly said, "Fellow Daoist of Huangfeng Valley, we are disciples of Ling Shou Shan!"

"The seven sects of Yue are of one mind and share the same blood. If you kill us here and the elders of your sect find out, it will surely cause discord between the two sects! If this matter is investigated, you will also be severely punished! I hope you will think twice!"

"Oh?"

Instead of immediately delivering the fatal blow, the mortal Mo Yu chuckled as if he had heard something amusing, saying, "So you two are fellow Daoists from Spirit Beast Mountain? I thought you were demonic scoundrels from Tianluo Kingdom!"

Kang Shixiong felt a chill run down his spine and was about to continue arguing.

Jiang, the junior brother beside him, however, was much less composed due to his guilty conscience. Upon hearing this, he lost his composure and suddenly unleashed a chilling, sinister aura, shouting sharply:

"Senior Brother Kang, now that our identities have been exposed, there's no need to waste any more words with him. We must fight to the death!"

"idiot!"

Brother Kang cursed inwardly, but at this moment he had no choice but to hesitate any longer.

He immediately summoned a blood bead that emitted a scarlet aura, slammed it into his chest, and spat out a mouthful of pure blood essence to sacrifice to this treasure!
"Roar--!"

A one-horned demon king, over ten feet tall and wielding a large sword, roared as it emerged from the blood bead!
A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he murmured, "It's not the Spirit Control Sect, but... the Ghost Spirit Sect?"

"Be careful, son!"

Xu Yan exclaimed in surprise and quickly produced a handkerchief, which transformed into a light screen to cover the two of them.

However, the one-horned demon king was surrounded by a malevolent aura, which tainted the spiritual light of the magic weapon. With a fierce slash of his white bone sword, the defensive light barrier shook violently and cracks appeared.

Mo Yu, a mortal, reached out and gently patted her shoulder: "Just watch from the back, I'll take care of it."

Although Xu Yan hesitated for a moment, she still chose to obey, removed the Ropa, and retreated.

"You're quite the chivalrous one!"

Jiang, the junior brother, revealed his true colors. He merged his hands with a magical artifact, transforming them into a pair of ferocious claws. He grinned and said, "Senior Brother Kang, let's join forces and take care of this fool first!"

"it is good!"

Senior Brother Kang responded verbally and immediately manipulated the one-horned ghost king, roaring as it charged forward.

He himself quietly took a few steps back.

Since this guy dared to lure them here, he must have a backup plan to deal with them!
Although he didn't quite understand why this kid was just standing there like an idiot, without using any magical artifacts or spells, what was going on?

In any case, let Junior Brother Jiang go up first and scout the way.

Then, he was blinded by an extremely dazzling golden light, like the sun exploding!
"Oh!"

With a muffled thud, he suddenly felt the blood bead in his hand, which was connected to his mind, shatter completely with a "crack"!

Brother Kang suffered a backlash to his mind, felt a sweet taste in his throat, and spat out another mouthful of blood, his aura instantly weakening.

When he forced his burning, tear-streaked eyes open, he managed to open them a crack.

What I saw was Jiang, who was usually arrogant, now like a dead dog with its neck being choked, its throat being tightly gripped by a large hand, its feet dangling in the air, still struggling in vain.

The owner of that large hand was slowly walking towards him.

Senior Brother Kang transformed the last of his long-accumulated essence into a jet of blood and spurted it out!

However, before the blood arrow, which contained filthy power, could even get close to the mortal Mo Yu's body, it was evaporated and purified by the Yang spiritual energy that was activated spontaneously around him!

"Using ghostly energy to counteract yang energy? That's an idea."

This was the last sentence Brother Kang heard in this world.

The next moment, his head was crushed by a foot, as cleanly and decisively as a watermelon.

The faint wisp of the primordial spirit had just escaped the corpse when it was burned to ashes by the scorching and domineering yang energy.

With his neck being choked, Junior Brother Jiang was no longer able to struggle, and all his life force was completely extinguished.

With a sparkle in her beautiful eyes, Xu Yan walked over from behind, her breath sweet as orchids, and was about to hug Mo Yu from behind.

After all, after his previous battles or cultivation, his internal energy would be boiling, and if his sisters were around, he would have to use dual cultivation to resolve it.

However, the mortal Mo Yu knew that Master Hong Fu's "gaze" might still be on this side, so he simply dodged to the side and at the same time used his fingertips to draw out the blood bead covered with cracks on the ground.

Although Xu Yan didn't understand why, her clever mind had already brought her back to her senses from lust.

She covered her mouth and giggled, "Young master is really stingy, won't even give me a hug. But...shouldn't you leave one alive?"

"Having a body is enough."

The mortal Mo Yu's gaze remained fixed on the blood bead in his hand. "The two of them know too much about your situation. If they reveal the bounty, I won't be able to explain myself."

Even though he had tried his best to control the spiritual power within his body, the yang spiritual energy, which had been completely aroused by the eerie ghost energy, still uncontrollably devoured the last trace of yin energy remaining in the blood bead.

He couldn't help but frown.

This battle proved that evil spirits like ghostly energy and malevolent energy are indeed completely suppressed by his Yang spiritual root, just like Muzan Kibutsuji facing the sun. They deal true damage plus critical hits, maximizing his special attack.

However, the significant flaws of the Yang spiritual root were also exposed.

First of all, Yang spiritual energy cannot be concealed even in the slightest by using the Concealing Breath Technique. When launching a sneak attack, it shines brightly like the sun, emphasizing a dignified and upright approach.

He's probably destined to never be one for ambushes or playing dumb to outmaneuver others.

Secondly, when facing evil energies such as ghostly energy or malevolent energy, the yang energy in the body is like a honey badger, regardless of whether it can win or not, it will fight first!

They couldn't stop them!
This means that from now on, he can forget about using any magical artifacts or treasures with the attribute of Yin spirits.

more than this……

Mo Yu, a mortal, stroked his chin as a thought that sent chills down his spine came to mind:
"If... I accidentally encounter an old monster in the Nascent Soul stage or even the Deity Transformation stage who has cultivated demonic techniques, wouldn't the Yang spiritual energy within me... also uncontrollably attack it?"

"Probably...not right?"

The more he thought about it, the less confident he became, and he started sweating profusely.

After all, in this trashy world of cultivation, there are hardly any truly good people.

Buddhist monks who cultivate themselves secretly learn demonic arts; Taoist masters who are orthodox keep a Ten Thousand Souls Banner hidden in their sleeves—these are all considered basic practices.

If he were to encounter such a situation, and he lost control, wouldn't he be seen as a provocateur, or even an assassination attempt, and then slapped to death?
