Chapter 214 Strange Events Abound, All Gather at the Immortal Abode

What kind of strange creature is this?
Unlike the previous rebirth of the Tree Goddess's strange infant, Li Wushou did not detect the aura of magic.

It seems to be just a natural talent based on physical attributes?
At this moment, the situation of the crimson dragon was still unclear.

From the forest that had been crushed by the dragon's body, several dark brown monsters, each the size of an adult, suddenly crawled out.

The monster has a pointed head, no eyes, a pair of long tentacles, and its entire body is covered with a hard carapace. Its body is oval-shaped and has four pairs of symmetrical blade-like feet.

The moment it emerged from the forest, its tentacles trembled in mid-air, then locked onto Li Wushou and charged straight at him!
Although these monsters were not as large as the Crimson Dragon, their armored bodies and eight legs making them incredibly imposing as they charged forward.

Although Li Wushou was suspended in mid-air, he still dared not underestimate these monsters, because he did not know what methods they possessed.

Sure enough, after these monsters rushed to a place not far from Li Wushou, they put their eight legs on the ground and suddenly sprang up. A vertical mouth suddenly opened on their chests, which were covered by carapaces, with interlocking canine teeth and sharp teeth, as if they wanted to swallow Li Wushou into their stomachs in one gulp.

Li Wushou frowned, holding the Rib Bone Magic Sword, infusing it with Yin and Yang power, and his magic domain burst forth, deflecting the opponent's blade and foot, before slashing straight down with his sword.

The terrifying blood energy, enhanced by the power of Yin and Yang, cleaved the leaping monster in two!
With a thought, he slashed several times with his sword, and the other monsters that had leaped into the air with him were simultaneously cleaved in two and fell to the ground.

Li Wushou surveyed the scene, but showed no joy.

He discovered that even more monsters were leaping out of the surrounding jungle, a vast and seemingly endless horde.

What displeased him even more was that, whether it was the oppressive crimson dragon from before or these strangely shaped monsters now, Li Wushou felt no appetite whatsoever.

Not only was he absent, but even the shadowy figure behind him was nowhere to be seen!
This shows that these monsters, whether flesh or spirit, are not to the liking of the Three Immortals Pavilion.

This was also a new thing for Li Wushou; there weren't many things he didn't like!
This wasn't because he was being picky now that he was living a better life; it was because he genuinely couldn't muster any appetite.

What exactly is going on with this cave?
Li Wushou pondered in confusion, watching as the monsters swarmed towards him, and the crimson dragon beneath his feet completely grew into two.

After thinking for a moment, he concealed his aura, the black shadow enveloping his body as he disappeared from the spot.

Since the food wasn't even tasty despite the arduous effort, Li Wushou was unwilling to continue the charade!
Like a ghost, they moved through the forest, the sounds of the fierce battle still echoing behind them.

Attracting a large number of strange creatures from the forest, they kept converging on that spot. Li Wushou carefully concealed his figure and rushed towards the direction of Baiyutai.

After traveling about two or three miles, the sky suddenly darkened, but it wasn't the kind of darkness that comes with night; rather, it was as if a huge object had blocked out the sun.

Looking up, the sun in the sky had indeed disappeared, and the world had suddenly turned from its original incandescent white to golden yellow.

Immediately afterwards, a torrential downpour fell from the sky, the raindrops rushing together to form a waterfall rather than rain.

Li Wushou's expression was solemn. The rainwater was bright red and filled with the stench of blood. It was clearly human blood, not rainwater!

Moreover, it's not ordinary human blood; it's refined essence blood!

Judging from the scent of the blood, this essence blood was not refined for long; it must have been refined recently.

Could it be that the mysterious cultivator has really returned to his cave?
Upon realizing this, Li Wushou's heart skipped a beat, and he exclaimed, "Trouble!"
Why is it so hard to have a lucky encounter? Aren't the protagonists in Wu Zhuangyuan's stories all given lucky encounters?

Cursing inwardly, Li Wushou continued to walk through the rain of blood.

Since we're already here, we should at least go and take a look at the Upper Refinement Cave.

He always felt that there was something strange about this immortal abode ruin, and that he seemed to have overlooked something important that he couldn't connect the dots.

We continued on for another two or three miles.

The blood rain from the sky suddenly stopped, and the golden world returned to its incandescent state.

A new sun hangs in the sky, as if that sky-covering figure has disappeared into the world.

Li Wushou paused in his steps, stopping at a dividing line.

This dividing line was not drawn by man, but was generated by heaven and earth, with the two sides of heaven and earth clearly separated.

The red ground beneath my feet instantly turned into a black patch after crossing the dividing line.

Unlike the lush, diverse trees that grow in the red land, the black land is devoid of life and filled with a sense of death.

We walked slowly forward; the ground was muddy and damp.

Li Wushou gently opened a hole in the Dharma Domain, and a putrid stench wafted out.

He quickly gathered his magical domain and rushed towards the white jade platform.

It was about four or five miles away from Baiyutai. After a series of unexpected events, Li Wushou also gave up his leisurely thoughts.

Just then, a feeling of oppression suddenly came over me.

Li Wushou subconsciously looked up at the sky and saw a huge, crystal-clear water sphere suddenly falling from the sky.

This water sphere wasn't the blood rain from before, but real, clear water.

The moment it plummeted from the sky, it stirred up a raging torrent on the black, muddy earth.

Li Wushou steadied himself, rooted himself to the ground, and focused his mind into the realm of law, striving to control the power of Yin and Yang to break through the torrent!

Large amounts of mud mixed in with the torrent, impacting the Yin-Yang Domain. Li Wushou's expression was solemn as he felt a pressure.

Fortunately, the torrent came out of nowhere and disappeared just as suddenly, lasting only a moment before the earth returned to normal.

Composing himself, Li Wushou gazed at the sky and realized that the sun had somehow turned into a crescent moon.

The moonlight was exactly the same as the sunlight from before, so Li Wushou didn't care when the sun and moon had changed.

With a furrowed brow, Li Wushou silently activated the Panlong Technique, and after a moment, he understood.

The moon and sun are indeed fake!

The Land of Misfortune is a place where the sun and moon are invisible. After confirming that he was still in the ruins of the Immortal Abode, Li Wushou used the Panlong Technique several times.

Li Wushou's Panlong Technique can absorb the power of the sun, but he was unable to absorb the power of the sun, whether it was the moon now or the sun just now.

That only proves one thing: the sun that appears before one's eyes is fake.

Is this a magic array within a celestial abode? Does it really possess such power? Li Wushou's apprehension deepened.

Just then, another unexpected event occurred!
The incandescent light in the world suddenly turned golden, followed by the wailing of countless souls.

The sky above the black ground was filled with the aura of living ghosts and evil spirits, covering the entire area!

The dark shadows behind him rose up, making no attempt to conceal their desire. But before Li Wushou could give any command, the countless souls vanished in the blink of an eye into the muddy black earth!

Just like the essence and blood from before, it was completely devoured by the scorched earth.

Li Wushou stared intently at the sky. The golden hue slowly faded, and the crescent moon reappeared in the sky.

Just as Li Wushou was about to look away from the world as it returned to normal, the world before him suddenly began to shake.

The world was inverted, with yin and yang reversed, which was very similar to the sensations Li Wushou and the Paper Goddess had when they entered the passage.

Li Wushou calmed his mind and focused on the space between his brows. If he continued to observe, even he would feel dizzy and lightheaded.

It is unknown how much time has passed; time has become extremely blurred, the tremors between heaven and earth have gradually subsided, and the Yin-Yang Tai Chi that has been flowing continuously within Li Wushou's dantian has also calmed down again.

Just now, when the heavens and earth shook, the Yin-Yang Tai Chi in his dantian was also inexplicably stirred and began to flow on its own.

Suddenly, Li Wushou's mind stirred, and he looked towards the dark ground not far in front of him.

On the dark ground ahead, ten people appeared out of nowhere.

Judging from their attire, the ten people should belong to two factions: one with uniform orange-yellow monk robes and the other with uniform light blue robes.

Only two people remained standing from both teams; the other eight had fallen into the mud.

One of the two was wearing a kasaya and had long eyebrows and large ears.

But he only has half a body, with his lower body reaching his waist, growing on the shoulder of a giant made of rock, like a Buddha in stone!

The other man was dressed in a dark blue robe, wearing a turban, and had a long beard. On the left side of his neck, there was a bulging muscle that looked like an eye, but it was closed at the moment.

He held a feather fan in his hand, occasionally waving it lightly, his body enveloped in moisture, keeping him away from the mud.

Both of them were feeling unwell and were trying to calm themselves down.

Li Wushou recognized them at a glance; these two must be Master Lingshan and Mr. Jingshui, who had made the appointment with Master Fufeng.

But weren't these two supposed to meet Master Fufeng tomorrow?
Could it be that I haven't just entered the ruins, and a long time has actually passed?

But according to their calculations and agreement, shouldn't the three parties prepare enough offerings to worship the Golden Armored Immortal and then worship the ruins of the Immortal Abode before they can enter?
At this moment, Master Fufeng's offerings are still inside his Yin-Yang diagram.

How did these two manage to prepare enough offerings to enter the ruins?

With his mind in turmoil, Li Wushou was surprised that the two had entered the ruins ahead of schedule, but he didn't care.

His original plan was to enter the Upper Cultivation Cave ahead of time, search for the benefits, then have Chen Gou'er eat the piece of flesh and blood tree branch to disguise himself as Fu Feng Zhenren, and then lure the two people into the ruins to kill them and eat their golden cores.

Now that they've come in on their own, it saves Li Wushou the trouble.

After all, it's easy for Chen Gou'er to impersonate Fufeng Zhenren, but for Chen Gou'er to fool two Golden Core cultivators, Li Wushou and the old beggar would probably have to put in a lot of effort to train him.

Li Wushou really didn't want to go through the pain of teaching Chen Gou'er to impersonate him again.

Moreover, something seems off about this immortal abode ruin. Having a few cannon fodder in will reduce the cost of trial and error for us.

After a short while, Master Lingshan and Mr. Jingshui seemed to have regained some of their senses.

Intending to wake up the disciple who had fallen behind them, the two suddenly changed their expressions and discovered Li Wushou standing not far away, observing them with great interest.

Wearing the yin and yang?

The two of them were both startled!
Is there someone in these immortal abode ruins?
