Chapter 274 The Puppet Taoist of Immortal Mountain, Liu Qingmei is Out of the Game (2 chapters, 5000 words each)
"Ah! My eyes!"

The various family heads, who were scattered around and avoiding Liu Qingmei's killing spree, subconsciously looked over when they saw the Dharma image of the Kongzi lineage patriarch suddenly appear in the void.

Then they all screamed in terror.

The moment they looked at the founder of the Void lineage, their eyeballs twitched and stung constantly, as if tentacles or scales were about to grow from their eyeballs.

This made them quickly regain their composure and dare not look any longer!

They even tried to control their bodies, moving further and further away from the place, because they felt that not only their eyeballs, but also the flesh and blood in their bodies, were beginning to writhe uncontrollably.

Mu Tong and the other City Gods also retreated, as they too felt the strange movements of their own Yin Spirits.

Only the Golden Core protectors and elders remained in place.

The protectors gathered behind the four elders, each forming a domain that enveloped themselves, protecting them from the alienation and corruption.

Although they were temporarily unharmed, a hint of confusion lingered on their faces.

When Liu Qingmei slaughtered the selection protectors and members of the Liu family, they wanted to provide support, but were stopped by the four elders.

The terrifying Dharma image that suddenly appeared in the sky at this moment filled them with even more fear and despair.

They could vaguely discern that this was the Dharma form of Master Kong, but Master Kong's state was clearly extremely abnormal, as if he were undergoing a transformation, just like the Dragon God from before.

What happened today?
What should have been a joyous occasion for the gods has deteriorated to this point.
The pride in the hearts of all the Dharma protectors is silently crumbling.

Just then, the four elders seemed to receive some kind of information.

Suddenly, he turned to the dejected crowd and shouted:
"What's the panic? The High Priest will surely turn the tide! Now, split into two teams and follow us down the Suspended Mountain to Wangxian City and Weixian Town to control the Moth King Flying Insects."

He finished speaking without waiting for the reactions of the Dharma Protectors and Golden Elixir Masters.

Elders Yun and Shen selected five or six Golden Core cultivators to protect them and flew towards Wangxian City.

Elders Yuwen and Lü, along with the remaining Golden Core protectors, flew towards Weixian Town.

They had just received a message from the High Priest: the Moth Queen flying insects had emerged from their cocoons and were about to wreak havoc on Wangxian City and Weixian Town. The people below needed their support at that very moment.

As for the High Priest, he must stay behind to deal with the mutated founder of the Void lineage.

This made the four elders feel both moved and somewhat guilty.

This was originally a matter concerning Mount Sumeru, yet it has caused the High Priest, an outsider, so much trouble, which truly makes those who are the pillars of Mount Sumeru feel ashamed.

So although the four of them accepted the order, they were secretly harboring resentment.

They must clear out the Moth King flying insects as soon as possible and return to the Hanging Mountain to help the High Priest!

The founder of the Fuzi lineage was somewhat puzzled as he watched the crowd leave.

It wasn't until he noticed Yun and Shen's movements and focused his attention on Wangxian City that he saw the anomaly.

Throughout Wangxian City, a large amount of malevolent energy rose up from nowhere, and swarms of moths flew up, constantly devouring the people.

Is that the Queen Moth?!
The founder of the Fuzi lineage was deeply moved. He lived outside the Moth Queen Valley in Wangxian City, and naturally he knew about the legend of the Moth Queen.

How could such a deity, who has been dead for countless years, suddenly appear in Wangxian City?

The founder of the Fu Zi lineage was greatly alarmed!
But the unease subsided slightly the next moment, for in the center of Wangxian City stood a silver giant.

The opponent's body was filled with a vast magnetic field, which was constantly drawing in and attracting the moths and moth pollen.

The founder of the Floating Character Clan did not know the origin of this suddenly appearing silver giant, but it was obviously a divine being, whose golden body was made entirely of star fragments.

This is much larger than the destiny star that Li Wushou took out!

This display of power left even the founder of the Floating Character Clan speechless. Which force could possibly produce so many star fragments?

For some reason, the founder of the Fuzi lineage was reminded of Li Wushou.

Judging from the silver giant's behavior, it is clear that it is protecting Wangxian City.

This shows that he was not in cahoots with the painter and others who plotted against his junior brother Kong.

Then, the only person in the entire Huazhou who could command such a person should be Li Wushou, the disciple of the Great Venerable.

The founder of the Fu lineage felt extremely fortunate.

Thankfully, Li Wushou was there!
But Wangxian City is too large, and the magnetic force of this silver giant cannot cover the entire city.

Just then, Elders Yun and Shen, along with several guardians, rushed towards the area not covered by the enemy and used their magic domain to strangle the moths.

This surprised and delighted the founder of the Fu Zi lineage!
What surprised him even more was that Elders Yun and Shen seemed to be quite skilled at killing these moths, and their cooperation was quite efficient.

"Clang clang clang!"

The five surnames of the Yun clan sounded an alarm in the inner city.

The three alarms brought disaster. Because of the threat from evil spirits at sea and the land of confusion, the people of Wangxian City were not the kind to die in comfort. They quickly became alert the moment they heard the alarm bells.

After receiving guidance from the Golden Core Protector, the five clans, seven noble families, and twenty-four families with cultivation quickly organized a defensive line.

Although many people are still parasitized and devoured by the sudden outbreak of moths.

However, with Chi Xiu's suppression and the Golden Core Protector's efforts to spread the word, the situation was gradually brought under control, preventing it from escalating into an uncontrollable situation.

it is good!
The patriarch of the Fu lineage, who had been observing all of this, secretly praised it.

My descendants from Suspended Mountain are no less capable than others; they truly deserve to be the pillars of Suspended Mountain!
With this, the founder of the Fu Zi lineage could finally find some peace of mind!
He composed himself and prepared to focus entirely on dealing with his junior brother, Kongwu.

At this moment, emptiness seemed to be the source of the anomaly, which made him both shocked and angry, as well as somewhat heartbroken.

The main sect of Suspended Mountain closed off the Great Realm, leaving him and his junior brother Kongwu outside to wait for the right time and build a foundation for entering the world.

Once the world changes drastically and the main sect enters the mortal realm, they will all become meritorious officials of the main sect. Therefore, although the two have had conflicts from time to time over the years, it is only because of differences in their ideals.

How could he possibly want to see his junior brother Kong end up in this state?

At this moment, his appearance and demeanor changed drastically.

Just moments ago, the other person's expression was one of constant struggle, but now it seems like that of a completely different person.

This seems to be a method for manipulating puppets?

Seeing that the aura of the patriarch of the Empty Lineage was becoming increasingly mixed, the patriarch of the Floating Lineage had no other choice.

He had to stop Kong Wu from absorbing the Dragon King's transformed dragon body as soon as possible. Once the absorption was complete, he would have no way to control Kong Wu, regardless of whether his junior brother Kong Wu had been turned into a puppet.

Even now, he was somewhat uncertain. If things really got out of control, the centuries of effort put into the Suspended Mountain would truly be in vain.
With a flick of his sleeve, he rose up, and a gentle breeze swept across the white jade steps and through the floating palace.

The white jade steps and the entire hall suddenly vanished like clouds and mist.

Li Wushou then realized that the white jade steps and the floating hall were actually all made by Fu Yun, the founder of the Fu lineage.

However, since the opponent's nascent soul had not flowed within it before, Li Wushou had not focused his attention on observing these things for a while.

As the gentle breeze swept by, the floating clouds flowed like a stream into the sky.

The floating clouds that supported the suspended mountain also merged into it!
The five-colored light shone even brighter until it broke through the obscuring clouds and became visible to the naked eye.

Suddenly, a white cloud-like Dharma body appeared beneath the incense-filled starry sky!

Li Wushou, who was watching from below, was astonished. This ancestor of the Fuzi lineage was actually able to forcibly condense a Divine Transformation Dharma Image with the power of the Nascent Soul.

Through his observation, Li Wushou confirmed the Floating Lineage Patriarch's cultivation level; the other party was indeed a Nascent Soul cultivator, not a Deity Transformation cultivator. Therefore, he was even more astonished by the Floating Lineage Patriarch's condensation of a Dharma Image!

This wasn't some trickery used by Elder Yun and the others, like painting infants; it was a genuine display of the mysteries of their own floating clouds!
At this moment, because of the gathering of the patriarchs of the Floating Character lineage, the entire area around the Suspended Mountain was cloudless and empty!
Without the support of the floating clouds, the suspended mountain trembled slightly, as if it were about to fall.

But then the suspended mountain was once again steadily suspended in the sky.

After the white jade steps and the floating palace disappeared, the base color of the suspended mountain was revealed, and the surface of these rocks was covered with inscriptions.

At this moment, the inscriptions are flashing white light, and it is they that gather power and quietly support the suspended mountain.

Two dharma images stood silently beneath the incense-filled sky.

Just then, Li Wushou suddenly heard the instructions of the founder of the Floating Lineage:

"Li Wushou, keep an eye on that woman for me. I'll thank you again once I've subdued Junior Brother Kong!"

Li Wushou nodded slightly as he looked at the floating cloud image of the Floating Character Patriarch.

In the next instant, the Dharma image of the Floating Lineage Patriarch rushed towards the Dharma image of the Empty Lineage Patriarch.

Whether Li Wushou agreed or not didn't matter, because just now on the other side, Liu Qingmei had finally finished killing people.

The other person was standing under the incense-filled starry sky just like him, watching the dharma images of the two patriarchs battle in the sky.

Liu Qingmei looked up and saw the state of the founder of the Kongzi lineage, and her brows furrowed.

This is different from their original plan!
After a moment of contemplation, she suddenly realized that Immortal Mountain did not want to give up this opportunity.

Since the painter was dead, they used the large amount of incense and alienated power from the dragon god's transformed body to erode the ancestor of the Kongzi lineage.

After forcibly reversing the Kongzi lineage patriarch's entry into the divine path, they could then elevate the Kongzi lineage patriarch to the status of a celestial being.

In this way, it can also quickly devour the incense offerings of Huazhou, causing the eerie mist to once again shroud Huazhou and return it to its former state of confusion.

However, this would be far from Liu Qingmei's expectations, and the founder of the Kongzi lineage might be crippled or suffer a major mental change after this ordeal.

After the Immortal Mountain forcibly controls the other party to refine the incense, the other party will be abandoned. She originally wanted to take this opportunity to control the Floating Ancestor, so that she would have more support under the Mountain Lord.

The more the mountain lord valued her, the more people had objections.

Controlling a Nascent Soul cultivator and a top-tier Core Formation cultivator would be a tremendous asset to her personally.

But now it seems very likely that both Master Fu and Master Kong will be empty-handed. This made her somewhat dissatisfied.

Moreover, the practice of forcibly leading the founder of the Kongzi lineage into the divine path by Mount Bulao made her feel even more disgusted!

How is this any different from what she experienced back then?
With a cold snort in her heart, Liu Qingmei was somewhat unwilling to continue.

She had just slaughtered all the Liu family members of Suspended Mountain, as well as the lineage of those selected as protectors.

In addition to Liu Mu, the other members of the Seven Liu Family in Wangxian City who were previously depicted in paintings were a collateral relative and a wicked servant.

The destruction of the Liu family is a foregone conclusion!

Since the rest is no longer relevant to her, what's the point of staying any longer?
With a thought, the void in front of him instantly turned into porcelain.

After shattering the illusion with a single punch, Liu Qingmei suddenly appeared beside Li Wushou.

Li Wushou noticed the solidified void around him and his eyes twitched.

What does Liu Qingmei mean by this?
Despite the attack coming at him, Li Wushou did not sense any killing intent.

The golden elixir, having absorbed the overflowing Yin spirit and essence of the golden dragon, quietly returned and hovered above the head, suddenly spinning.

The domain behind him shrank to three zhang, directly restoring the slowly porcelainizing world to its normal state.

He slowly turned around and met Liu Qingmei's gaze as she attacked again. Her starry eyes were still deep, but they carried a strange meaning.

After a moment's thought, Li Wushou quietly dispersed his magical domain and engaged Liu Qingmei in close combat.

Sure enough, the moment his domain dissipated, a divine soul transmission resounded in his mind.

"The one manipulating the void at this moment is a puppeteer under the tutelage of the Immortal Porcelain Venerable of Mount Immortality. The other party is attempting to forcibly force the void into the divine path and forcibly refine the incense offerings of the continent."

The opponent's Achilles' heel is hidden in one of the countless crystal faces of the empty crystalline membrane.

Once that crystal surface is shattered, the opponent will find it difficult to manipulate the void again.

The Dragon King treated me well back then. I left a way to protect the Dragon King's spirit in the ink seed the painter had placed between his brows. Seeing that you subdued the Dragon King with your physical body, you clearly also want to protect him, so I'll leave you with this task.

As for the fact that the Moth King Flying Insect can only survive for twelve hours after hatching, I don't know the specific method of manipulation. Only the painter knows. However, I guess it is related to the Moth King Painting Wall in Moth King Valley. It's too late for you to enter the Misty Land now. Try to stall for twelve hours!

A great change is imminent, and Mount Bulao is about to enter the world.

"If you lose to me next time, how about becoming my High Priest again?"

The telepathic transmission was very fast, but Li Wushou listened very attentively.

Liu Qingmei was actually born in the Immortal Mountain?

This was the third time Li Wushou had heard about Mount Immortality.

The first was the High Priest of the Luotou Clan, who was said to have learned the art of seizing and controlling spirits at Mount Bulao. The second was the Donkey Taoist, from whom Li Wushou obtained a scroll of the Food Venerable's Method.

Now, Liu Qingmei has mentioned a porcelain master.

Clearly, the other party and that Venerable Food Master are at the same level.

Liu Qingmei's method of porcelainizing all things clearly originated from the lineage of the Porcelain Venerable.

He didn't understand why Liu Qingmei suddenly changed her mind, but he figured it must be related to her situation in the Immortal Mountain.

Moreover, Li Wushou had no time to guess the reason, because Liu Qingmei once again transmitted her thoughts through her soul:

"When the High Priest takes advantage of my weakness, he will smash my porcelain body, which will save me the trouble of watching from here."

Upon hearing this, Li Wushou looked at Liu Qingmei again, and after a long while, replied via telepathic communication:
"Then you'd better watch out, City God Liu. If you lose to me next time, you won't be able to return to Mount Immortality!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Qingmei's starry eyes narrowed slightly, a hint of a smile on her face.

They then launched a fierce attack on Li Wushou. Although their telepathic communication was harmonious, their battle never ceased, and it appeared extremely dangerous to outsiders. The void in their hands seemed to crack constantly, as if it were made of paper.

The heads of the households and the city god, who had just been terrified by Liu Qingmei's bloody slaughter, stood at a distance, looking at Li Wushou with expectant expressions.

Liu Qingmei's killing of a Golden Core cultivator was ruthless, but Li Wushou's image of overpowering the Dragon God and punching the painter was also indelibly imprinted in their minds.

Just as the four elders shouted as they left, "The High Priest will surely be able to turn the tide!"

They, too, are now filled with unwavering faith and prayer.

But a group of maids among the City Gods were extremely anxious; one of the things she feared most had happened.

Sister Liu and the High Priest eventually clashed.

Mu Tong gripped the white jade snail shell tightly in her hand, her mind in turmoil, utterly at a loss.

Just then, Liu Qingmei's eyes flickered, and she gave Li Wushou a look.

Li Wushou understood immediately; Liu Qingmei was hinting to him that he could shatter her porcelain body.

Therefore, Li Wushou directly released the suppression of the Dharma Domain and broke into Liu Qingmei's strange Dharma Domain.

The Dharma Domain, capable of porcelainizing all things, had no effect whatsoever on Li Wushou's Dharma Domain.

Li Wushou thought Liu Qingmei was feigning weakness and revealing a flaw, so he didn't delay.

Blood and spiritual energy covered his fist, and the power of heaven and earth, along with the flow of spiritual energy, gathered in front of his fist in a spiral shape.

With a single step, Li Wushou's physical body shattered the void, scattering a pile of fragments, and he instantly appeared in front of Liu Qingmei.

He stood still, swung his fist, and smashed it directly into Liu Qingmei's chest!
Liu Qingmei looked at Li Wushou and his fist that suddenly appeared in front of her, a look of astonishment in her eyes.

He simply gave a signal with his eyes, instructing Li Wushou to calm the anxious Mu Tong down later.

Since Mu Tong had clearly recognized her identity, it would inevitably cause a misunderstanding if she saw Li Wushou break her porcelain body.

However, Li Wushou seemed to have misunderstood her intentions. Seeing that Li Wushou's fist was already in front of her, Liu Qingmei was also somewhat helpless.

She wanted to exchange a few more pleasantries, but the high priest didn't seem to want to.

He transmitted a divine voice to the anxious Mu Tong.

The next instant, his pupils gradually solidified, and his entire body began to porcelainize.

This is Liu Qingmei activating the method of the porcelain body of the Immortal Mountain Porcelain Venerable to take the place of death!
"boom!"

With a sharp crack in the void, Liu Qingmei's body suddenly exploded in mid-air.

The violent force directly crushed the flying porcelain shards into powder, which then dissipated into the air.

Mu Tong, who was still surprised by Liu Qingmei's telepathic message, suddenly shivered.

Even knowing that Sister Liu was acting with the High Priest, she still felt that the High Priest had gone too far.

The other housekeepers and city gods, who were terrified, also trembled at the sound of the cracking sound.

Immediately afterward, the crowd cheered as they realized what was happening.

"The High Priest has truly turned the tide!"

"That mysterious woman is finally dead!"

"The High Priest is really strong!"

……

Li Wushou stood still in the void, but his expression remained unchanged.

Staring at the two patriarchs, Fu and Kong, locked in fierce combat above, today's matter is far from over.

At this moment, the Floating Lineage Ancestor was constantly riding the floating clouds, rushing towards the brow of the Empty Lineage Ancestor.

He also sensed that Kongwu was being manipulated by a puppet, who was trying to create an opportunity for the founder of the Kong lineage to regain control of the Dharma form by attacking the opponent's mind.

However, he was already weaker than the founder of the Kongzi lineage. Although the founder of the Kongzi lineage could not exert his full power due to the puppet manipulation, the founder of the Kongzi lineage, who had refined part of the mutated dragon body, was not much less powerful than before, and was even more bizarre.

Just then, the puppet Taoist in the ancestral image of the Kongzi lineage saw Liu Qingmei's shattered body and was shocked.

Although he knew that Liu Qingmei wouldn't die so easily, given her status in the mountain lord's heart, he was very likely to be held accountable.

Cursing under his breath, the Puppet Daoist saw that the ancestor of the Floating Lineage was still entangled, and he became even more determined.

Faced with the renewed attack from the Floating Lineage Patriarch, the soul within the Void Lineage Patriarch's Dharma Image surged and suddenly ignited. The empty crystalline surfaces on the Dharma Image opened up simultaneously, bursting forth with a powerful suction force.

All of the floating clouds of the Floating Lineage patriarch were swallowed into the body of the Empty Lineage patriarch.

The ancestral image of the Void Lineage Master bowed slightly, staring fiercely at Li Wushou in the void, and asked in a chilling tone:

"How dare you harm the Holy Maiden of Immortal Mountain? Tell me! How do you want to die?"

The person is still in the hospital; I'll send it as soon as I finish writing.
