Chapter 461 Mountains and Rivers (Part 20)
Hanlian: "What does this mean?"

Xianfeng: "You recognize that evil weapon?"

The two asked questions at the same time, but their focus was different.

Yunxi fumbled for the storage bracelet on her wrist and slowly spoke:

"I once saw information about this evil weapon in a fragment of a scroll. This sword is called Dragon Fang, one of the three great evil weapons of ancient times. It was once the weapon of an evil god, but I don't know why it was sealed in the Mountain and River Scroll."

Previously, I asked Fellow Daoist Xianfeng about the origin of the Mountain and River Scroll. Based on what you said, I speculate that the Mountain and River Scroll was probably a container used to seal this evil weapon and evil cultivator after the great war between good and evil.

In order to seal and suppress the Dragon Fang and the evil cultivators who were also taken here, the Mountain and River Scroll consumed a great deal of energy, and its grade eventually dropped. For some unknown reason, it ended up in the Weiyu Realm and became the treasured artifact of the Immortal Transformation Sect.

Xianfeng nodded in agreement with Yunxi's deduction, but Hanlian, standing to the side, said:
"Fellow Daoist Ranxi's speculation is reasonable and basically matches the current situation. However, that evil artifact is about to break through the seal, so why would it help us? Isn't that a contradiction?"

“Fellow Daoist Hanlian is right. I didn’t realize these things before. It wasn’t until Buddhist Disciple Yunchen came to me that I put everything together, cleared away the fog before my eyes, and understood the true purpose of this evil cultivator’s scheme.”

Han Lian said solemnly:
"To unseal this evil weapon, the Dragon Fang."

"Yes."

Yunxi gave an affirmative answer, and then continued:
"At first, when we were sucked into the Mountain and River Scroll, I thought the evil cultivators wanted to kill us in order to weaken the power of the righteous cultivators. After all the Nascent Soul cultivators were successively teleported into this sealed hall, I realized that the evil cultivators not only wanted us to die, but also wanted to use us to release the evil souls sealed here."

Leaving us here puts us in a dilemma: to leave alive, we must break the seal and release the evil spirit; to avoid releasing the evil spirit, we must stay here and die.

However, the last batch of immortals who were teleported here brought us news that the spirit of the Mountain and River Scroll had not been completely controlled, and the ancestors outside the Mountain and River Scroll were also trying their best to rescue us, forcibly breaking the evil cultivators' control over the Mountain and River Scroll, so that we must persevere.

If we, who are trapped here, want to persevere, we must keep fighting against the evil spirits until the patriarch of the Immortal Transformation Sect regains control of the Mountain and River Scroll.

Even if the ancestors regain control of the Mountain and River Scroll, we still need to annihilate all the evil souls if we want to leave the sealed land. Without the evil souls that need to be suppressed, the seal will no longer imprison us, and that is how we will have a way to survive.

Otherwise, even if the ancestors could control the Mountain and River Scroll, they wouldn't dare to break the seal from the outside to rescue us. You must know that once the seal is broken, those evil souls that haven't been annihilated will definitely fight back and escape the shackles of the Mountain and River Scroll.

The evil cultivators exploited this, making us the key to unleashing the evil artifact, Dragon Fang. We crushed the evil spirits, and Dragon Fang used them to nourish itself, then used its strengths to manipulate people's hearts. Once we had exhausted all the evil spirits here, the cultivator who left alive would naturally take Dragon Fang with him.

Yunxi slowly finished explaining her deduction, then looked at the two people who were deep in thought.

Although I don't want to admit it, the evil cultivators made a brilliant move. Not only did they trick this group of Nascent Soul cultivators, but they also managed to release the sealed evil artifact, the Dragon Fang. If they weren't strong enough, they might have been able to release even more evil souls.

The Five Domains' Ancestors are facing a top-tier open conspiracy. To save these Nascent Soul cultivators, the seal must be broken from the outside, which is tantamount to helping the evil cultivators release Dragon Fang and Evil Souls. If they are not saved, they will have to watch helplessly as they become members of the evil souls. The Weiyu Realm will lose a group of elite disciples, causing a shortage of talent in the cultivation world. The battle against the evil cultivators will be even more difficult in the future, since the Weiyu Realm's combat strength still depends on the number of high-level cultivators.

Han Lian held back for a long while before coldly saying:

"How despicable." Xianfeng frowned.
"Fellow Daoist Ranxi, you just said that the evil artifact Dragon Fang will help us. How will it help us?"

"Dragon Fang not only wants to get out, but also wants to return to its peak state, so it needs to devour evil souls. However, these evil souls have been sealed here for so long, so how could they be willing to be devoured by Dragon Fang? Our arrival has just made us the target that Dragon Fang has set up in front of us."

It won't let us all die before it recovers to its peak state. Otherwise, it could have easily controlled the Nascent Soul demons from the start to wipe us all out in one fell swoop. There was no need to awaken the demons from low to high levels, let us adapt slowly, and then gradually increase the intensity, forcing us to break through.

A serious expression settled on Xianfeng's refined face as he took a deep breath and said:
"If we follow Fellow Daoist Ranxi's analysis, the more evil spirits we kill, the faster Longya's strength will recover, and the greater its chance of escaping."

You yourself said that the Dragon Fang is an evil artifact, very adept at bewitching people. No matter which one of us it bewitches, they will eventually escape from the Mountain and River Scroll. We have been helping it from beginning to end. Rather than that, we might as well perish together with them, at least we won't implicate the Wei Yu Realm.

Although Hanlian didn't speak, her determined gaze betrayed her thoughts.

Yunxi sighed:
"Who wants to die when they can live? Nearly half of us cultivators have already perished, and we might not even last until we've wiped out all the evil souls before we all fall."

But I am not reconciled, and I believe you are just as unwilling as I am, unwilling to let the path to immortality end here, unwilling to let the evil cultivators' schemes succeed.

My biggest weakness is that I can't stand being taken advantage of. Since these evil cultivators dared to scheme against me, I'm determined to tear a piece of flesh off them!
To tell you the truth, I have a way to deal with Dragon Fang, but I need your cooperation, so it's too early to give up now.

After hearing Ranxi's words, Xianfeng and Hanlian exchanged a glance, then looked at Ranxi's face, trying to confirm whether she was lying to them.

Yun Xi waved his hand and said:
"Rest assured, I keep my word."

"Fellow Daoist Ranxi, could you please reveal a little something? If something were to happen, we could remedy the situation."

Xianfeng said with some unease.

Yun Xi shook his head and said:
"Heavenly secrets cannot be revealed. Don't forget that we are in the lair of evil cultivators."

Han Lian's eyes flashed and she said:

"Alright, then I won't ask. How can we cooperate with you then?"

"When the time comes, you will know."

Yunxi herself didn't know, so she didn't rule out the possibility of anything.

Just then, demonic energy surged in the Southern Region, indicating that someone was about to break through. Before the fluctuations here had subsided, Buddhist light flashed in the Eastern Region, indicating that a cultivator there was also breaking through.

At the same time, evil spirits surged out of the empty hall again. This time, the leader was still an evil spirit with the strength of a Nascent Soul cultivator, and it was holding the Dragon Fang in its hand.
