The Path to Immortality Begins with the Life-Extending Lamp

Chapter 265 Youhuangzi

The crimson clouds rolled and churned, transforming into a ten-thousand-foot-long crimson dragon coiled around it. Its head resembled a crown with many parts, and nine dragon heads were held down. The turbulent air currents manifested as faint cracks, as if even heaven and earth could not bear it.

The Yin Shen True Realm possesses unparalleled supernatural powers, capable of capturing the Daoist essence within a hundred miles with a mere gesture. Especially for someone like the Yin Shen True Realm who cultivates the Dao of Immortality, their foundation in the Dao has been refined and perfected over hundreds of years.

Take this Fire Dragon Technique, for example. Its scales are made of flames, its clouds of fire are like blood, and its nine ferocious heads reach out from the sky. The heat and pressure waves scorch hundreds of miles away. It seems that it is going to teach Li Qing and the others a lesson.

"Ancestor..."

The Taoist priest from Jiulong Mountain stood motionless beneath the nine-headed red dragon statue, bowing respectfully in greeting.

The crimson dragon in the fiery clouds turned over, its nine enormous heads drooping down, their red tassels forming whiskers. The fiery spirit, filled with malevolence, pounced on the people in the Spirit City, as if the heavens themselves were bowing down, utterly irresistible.

"Linyuan Mountain, Youhuangzi-Li Qing, I have heard of your reputation and know your methods."

"But some things are none of your business!"

The powerful Daoist voice was deafening; it was a warning from a Yin God Realm expert, and also an admonition from someone who had been there to this challenger.

The high-pressure air waves whipped up sand and gravel, uprooted mountains and destroyed trees, and caused grass and trees to wither instantly upon contact. A single spark could quickly turn into a vast sea of ​​fire.

Under such power, Jiazi Zhuchang and the few Taoists were somewhat unsteady on their feet, struggling to resist the aftershocks of the Taoist magic, until the nine dragons lowered their heads and brought them down, leaving only a crimson expanse in all directions.

At this critical moment, a barrier immediately rose above the Spirit City. However, the azure barrier only protected the four-sided immortal city and had no intention of interfering in the battle between the Yin Gods.

"Dao Master..."

Cai Die'er heard the ferocious crimson flames overhead and cried out in alarm, ready to summon her spirit butterfly to defend herself. However, after waiting for a long time, the fire spell she had imagined failed to materialize.

When the people in the arena looked up again, they saw a bright blue aura suddenly appear above their heads. Tianfu Xuanyuan, controlling the qi, let the nine-headed fire dragon try to capture them, I can control it with a single breath.

The azure sky and crimson clouds burned like wildfire, divine flames poured down upon the ten directions of the earth. Here, the primordial energy was held before him, and it actually lifted up the hundred-mile-long crimson flames.

The Heavenly Primordial Qi, ranked first among the vital protective elements of the Southern Dipper, is immortal. Any divine power or magical technique that comes into contact with it will have its power reduced by three-tenths, and it can also absorb magical energy. When it collided with the fiery spirits filling the sky, the nine dragons' claws and teeth resisted, preventing the surrounding fire from penetrating. Instead, the Heavenly Primordial Qi shield grew stronger and stronger.

Li Qing transformed his right hand into a claw and grabbed out of thin air. The Xuan Yuan Qi shield actually lifted the nine-headed fire dragon outside, suppressing Jiazi Qun Chang, the Taoist of Jiulong Mountain, and the old Taoist of Lingzhi under the Xuan Yuan Qi.

We will never let him be carried away by that Nine Dragons True Man!
"Then, what guidance does Master Jiulong have?"

Li Qing raised his hand and fixed the Nine Dragons Sacred Fire in the void. Several wisps of primordial energy emerged from between Li Qing's ears and nose, leaping out and instantly transforming into auspicious clouds. However, these auspicious clouds intensified as they soared into the sky, and soon transformed into a sky full of mysterious dark clouds.

The auspicious clouds above were impervious to all magic, and the mysterious Yin Qi, dark and mysterious, collided with the hundred-mile-long red clouds, instantly transforming into the most brutal battle of magic and strength.

The Qi Dao is the most powerful and enduring. Li Qing's almost perfect Xuan Yin Qi Dao Foundation is as powerful as a sea of ​​Qi. When fighting against that Yin Shen Zhenren, he may not necessarily be at a disadvantage in a short time.

Not to mention that the Rebirth Carriage above the void water curtain had already been summoned by Li Qing. Now, with Li Qing's mental command, the royal carriage set off, with paper soldiers and armored horses riding the wind, like eight hundred ghost soldiers crossing the earth, crashing all the way to the top of the nine-headed fire dragon.

This royal chariot, refined time and again by Li Qingsheng, transcends Yin and Yang, traversing the void and the real. When it collided with the fire dragon, three or four of its heads were immediately shattered. Its momentum did not diminish, and it charged towards the Nine Dragons True Man at the top of the cloud platform with unstoppable force.

"Humph!"

"Unorthodox and unorthodox methods".

With the Nine Dragons Divine Fire broken, the True Man on the Hundred-Mile Red Cloud let out a cold snort, feeling genuinely displeased.

Although Li Qing had to use three techniques to barely break through his magic, it was still not a pleasant feeling to be pushed onto the shoulders of such a junior. What's more, this guy was driving his chariot and crashing into his face.
The real person in the bright red robe looked displeased. He flicked his sleeve, and the red robe's wide sleeves billowed with divine light. With one strike, he hit the chariot, and the strange phenomena of paper figures, armored horses, and ghostly soldiers passing by were instantly scattered. Even the royal chariot was hit and fell off the clouds, arcing through the void before landing back behind Li Qing.

"Boy, you have no manners." "Could it be that you've now mastered a few forbidden techniques and, relying on a vengeful ghost, you're going to use us as your targets?"

With the Ghost Mother in command and forbidden spells used to kill gods, this Ghost Prince - Li Qing's methods are indeed extreme and terrifying.

Forbidden techniques are powerful, but they should not be abused!
In the cultivation world of the Southern Kingdom, tracing back to Li Qing's several moves, many Yin Gods and Daoist disciples of the Immortal Sects have deduced the methods by which he was able to suppress Jin Yao Tai Bai and kill the Li Shan Mountain God.

A cursed technique that uses forbidden artifacts from ghosts and gods as a medium, a method of killing with a curse!

Such methods are indeed terrifying, but even immortals like him who have cultivated techniques such as using a staff to take someone else's life or transcending tribulations are not without corresponding methods.

"Li Qing dares not."

"I only wish to acquire a technique or method; in doing so, I have already incurred a karmic debt!"

With a casual wave of his hand, Li Qing caused all the primordial energy of the Heavenly Mansion to dissipate, transforming into a wisp of original energy that swirled around his finger. In the sky, a mottled scene unfolded, with red and black clouds churning endlessly. The original blazing fire that stretched for miles had now been shattered by the Xuan Yin Qing Clouds, turning the entire sky into a mesmerizing spectacle of light.

"Then why do you bully the weak, kill my disciples, oppress my great-grandson, and even intend to attack the Nine Dragon Immortal Mountain?"

"Is this what you mean by 'not daring'?"

Clearly, Master Jiulong had no intention of giving him a way out. As the Yin Shen Master who had just returned to the Southern Kingdom and established his sect, he was determined to fight for this honor.

"There wasn't any bullying of the weak, was there?"

"This fellow Daoist has been cultivating for at least sixty years longer than I have!"

Li Qing glanced at the noble Taoist priest with a stern look, then waved his hand and said:

"The True Man has cultivated the Yellow Court for a long time, and I'm afraid he looks down on this mere Spirit Paper Dao. I'm just afraid that the young men from all sides, in order to curry favor with the True Man, have done some rather extreme suppression of this Spirit Paper Dao."

“Li came to Lingnan also to ask for something from this temple, so he learned about this matter.”

"What does the real person think?"

Ultimately, since True Man Jiulong, as the Yin God True Realm of Lingnan Prefecture, addressed the Venerable Soul Ancestor as his Daoist brother, Li Qing was unwilling to fight him to the death. Moreover, he wanted to find a way out for the Spirit Paper Daoist, so he let it go.

It wouldn't hurt to offer a way out!

But the Nine Dragons True Man seemed unwilling to back down. With a flick of his sleeve, he dispersed the red and black clouds in the sky and turned to sneer.

"No need to test them anymore. I've always been one to hold grudges. The Spirit Paper Temple ruined my opening ceremony, so I'll teach them a lesson they won't forget."

"If I am unwilling to let go and insist on killing him, what will you do?"

The Yin God looked down at Li Qing with great interest, wanting to see how he would react—would he stand by and watch coldly, or would he accept this karmic burden?

Li Qing glanced deeply at the Cloud Immortal, but was too lazy to argue with him any longer, and turned to leave.

"Then so be it, Master!"

"Whether this Spirit Paper Temple is destroyed or not, I, Li, am determined to have all the items."

"However, what has been done will be done again, and what has been done will be done again. You should think about it carefully, Master!"

The true teachings of the paper doll technique of Lingzhi Temple are not worth fighting to the death with a Yin Shen Zhenren who came from a rogue cultivator, but if the latter insists on doing so, he will probably not be able to sleep every night from now on!
