Invasion Myth: Starting with the Schoolteacher

Chapter 578 Long Eyebrows Reappear
Deep within the snow-capped mountains, the air is bitterly cold.

Thick frost had formed on the surrounding rock walls, and this coldness also reached the hearts of the evil spirits.

The blade of the Nanming Lihuo Sword trembled slightly, and flame-like light flowed across its surface, as if it were alive.

The massive amount of vital energy accumulated within the mountains flowed into them through the sealing formation.

The sword-concealing stone box was formed from a lump of divine mud from the West, possessing the mysteries of the five elements' mutual generation and restraint. Weighing over a thousand pounds, it resembles neither crystal nor jade, its surface smooth and lustrous.

This kind of thing depends on fate; when the time is right, it will naturally open.

Is it really fate that we met today?

A surge of dark blue fire rose and condensed into a human form, along with a divine soul that filled it.

"Long eyebrows!!!"

Deep-seated hatred and overwhelming fear—this is the story of Venerable Poison Dragon and the Wild Buddha of the West.

"The Founder?!" "The Sect Leader?!"

Overjoyed and hopeful, this is the Qi siblings and Yan Chixia.

"."

This is Li Yingqi; she's a little flustered.

The figure of the Long-Browed Immortal slowly emerged from the fire, surrounded by virtual light and shadow, making him appear unlike an ordinary person.

The three disciples of Mount Shu were so excited upon seeing this scene that they trembled all over.

"Ancestor!"

They all knelt down on the ground, tears streaming down their faces.

Yan Chixia's voice choked with emotion, "Shushan... Shushan is already... The disciples are incompetent and have failed to defend the mountain gate..."

After the destruction of Mount Shu, these people experienced countless hardships and despair. The deaths of their fellow disciples and the collapse of the mountain gate seemed to have destroyed everything.

If it weren't for Xu Xuan's Baoan Hall clinging to the last glimmer of hope, he might have perished in a battle against evil spirits.

Now, the righteous path has gained another key player.

Just imagining Xu Xuan and the Long-Browed Immortal working together to cleanse the world filled him with excitement.

The Qi siblings knelt on the ground, tears streaming down their faces.

They were the ones most affected by this catastrophe. From being the head of the third-generation disciples to becoming stray dogs hunted by the demonic forces, the contrast was terrifying.

The more glorious they were before, the more pathetic they are now. Which member of the demonic path doesn't want to eliminate the descendants of Master Miaoyi?

Now everything is alright, our support is back, and so is Mount Shu.

Everything is fine.

However, things were not so good on the other side. The Poison Dragon Venerable of the Tibetan Demonic Sect and the Western Wild Buddha changed their expressions drastically.

I felt an overwhelming sense of grief and indignation.

And so it always happens; at crucial moments, divine soldiers appear, and righteous masters come to the rescue.

This time, divine weapons and powerful figures appeared together, a clichéd trope that truly annoyed the demons.

They thought the righteous path would never recover, but unexpectedly, the leader of the righteous path, who had been missing for a long time, appeared at this moment.

This is the Long-Browed Immortal, the founder of the Shu Mountain sect, a true master of the Xuanmen (Taoist school), and the leader of the righteous path.

The thirteen disciples gathered in famous mountains and rivers, forming their own forces. They also befriended eminent Buddhist monks and had extensive connections, making them almost able to rival the orthodox sects of the Central Plains.

I possess profound magical powers, numerous divine weapons, and abundant blessings. I am favored by heaven and earth and can even predict events hundreds of years into the future, laying out plans for the entire land.

The old man Shi Shen praised him as having the demeanor of a grandmaster, unparalleled in the cultivation of immortality throughout history.

The demonic path naturally gritted its teeth at him, yet was also terrified.

That evil demon, Chou Po, wielded the Seven Fiends Black Silk with unparalleled power, and his temperament was extremely violent and eccentric. He would devour living beings as easily as drinking water, completely unscrupulous.

As a result, his arrogant behavior angered this person, and he was beaten to a pulp by the long-browed man, almost to death.

Of course, thanks to this remarkable feat of escaping death, he also holds a respectable position in the demonic path.

The fate of the demon corpse Gu Chen was even more tragic. Originally a handsome man from the unorthodox Tianyin Sect, he stole the Taoist scriptures from the heretical sword immortal Ke Yizi. Later, the Long-Browed True Man used seven divine swords to pierce his heart and kill him.

It's fine if he's dead, but I know this guy can transform into the netherworld and will still emerge to cause harm after many years.

They put a fire cloud chain around his neck, which was undeniably a humiliating move.

Then, using the profound and innate techniques of the Xuanmen sect, they opened the Chidi Aperture and sealed his corpse and primordial spirit together.

Blood God Child Deng Yin, a vicious man who spent his entire life fighting against his senior brother.

He went from the righteous path to the demonic path in one fell swoop, created a huge force, and even obtained the inheritance of the demonic path. He was truly a genius.

In order to win a single round, he even went so far as to cultivate the most mysterious, terrifying, and powerful technique of the demonic path, the "Blood Nerve," enduring all kinds of suffering but still ending in a miserable defeat.

Every time she appears to seek revenge, she is outmaneuvered and defeated by her senior brother. This composure between capture and release is very damaging to her demonic heart.

These are all renowned, top-tier masters of the demonic path.

The remaining second-rate villains, such as the defector Zen Master Xiaoyue, were not even included.

For centuries, they have dominated the world, and even these powerful figures of the demonic sects have had to be quite wary of them.

If arranged in a hate-based order, one can already approach the position of the White Lotus Mother, which is quite an achievement.

After he disappeared, both the righteous and the demonic paths assumed that he had ascended to the heavens. Who would have thought that he was still lingering in the mortal realm?

Venerable Poison Dragon's face darkened. "This is bad! That old man with long eyebrows is still alive!" He knew the methods of the old man with long eyebrows well. Even if he was just using fire to condense his form, he was not someone they could easily deal with.

So, should we leave? But you just made such a bold statement; do you even care about saving face?

At this point, he began to regret sacrificing his disciple Yu De at Mount Shu. If only he were still here.

Whether it's offering a way out or taking the fall, it's all excellent.

A hint of panic flashed in the eyes of the Western Wild Buddha standing to the side, and his legs went weak.

But he remembered his reputation for being extreme, so he sneered, "What's there to be afraid of? It's just a soul transformation; its strength will surely be greatly diminished. If we brothers join forces, we might not be without a chance!"

This statement doesn't necessarily sound weaker.

Poison Dragon verbally agreed, but inwardly he was furious.

At this point, instead of persuading me to leave, you're still being stubborn. You're truly hopeless!

Actually, it's numb when there are people on the other side.

Li Yingqi thought it was Master Xu who had arrived, but unexpectedly, the white-browed old man she had only met once came first.

This is awkward; their relationship is a bit complicated.

Within the spiritual energy of the old Shu Mountain, she and her senior brother Xu joined forces to destroy a fragment of the soul of the Long-Browed Immortal, seizing the fortune of the old Shu Mountain, which led to the collapse of the mountain gate and the scattering of magical treasures throughout the world. Logically speaking, the two sides had a true feud of annihilation.

So, wielding the purple and green swords, she slowly moved to the side, creating a stark contrast with the kneeling Shu Mountain disciples.

Does the other party know what happened when I first entered the Daoist path?
Just then, the Long-Browed Master gave him a half-smile.

Okay, he knows.

That's my enemy!
A fierce glint flashed in Li Yingqi's eyes, and she was about to suddenly attack and strike; she still had a deadly move she hadn't unleashed yet.

But the Long-Browed Immortal stopped looking at her and instead focused on the two demons who were near the cave entrance.

"An external demon wants to sever the fortune of my Shu Mountain, I cannot agree to that."

That's a double entendre; he's a master of sarcasm.

The Venerable Poison Dragon assumed that Longbrow was about to make a move, and seeing how useless Jacob was, he had no choice but to walk down the steps himself.

He snorted coldly and said defiantly:
"The heat that has solidified into a physical form is nothing to fear."

"However, since Mount Shu has been destroyed, our Tibetan Buddhism still has a trace of compassion."

"I'll give you some face and allow you to reunite with your disciples. After you've enjoyed a few days together, I'll take your lives."

"Junior brother, let's go."

After weighing the options, Venerable Poison Dragon decided that the weather was nice today and wanted to go for a walk.

He raised his hand to activate the power of the seven external magic arrays in an attempt to break through the blockade of Nanming Li Huo.

He even used his escape technique to prepare for an inside-outside attack, but upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a self-harming blood escape technique, showing that he really liked the outside air.

Jacoba did the same thing; it's clear at this point that the two brothers are indeed from the same school and work together very well.

Unfortunately, as Changmei's eyes hardened, the light of the Nanming Lihuo Sword flickered slightly.

The Poison Dragon Venerable sensed extreme danger and looked at the crystal in his arms, where a ghostly blue flame had appeared without him noticing.

Why did my master's spirit get replaced by this thing?

? !
Flames erupted, accompanied by a scream. In the blink of an eye, the crystal sphere shattered into hundreds of fragments, which scattered in all directions.

The Poison Dragon Venerable, who was the first to be hit, had his body ripped apart by the explosion, blood splattered everywhere, and even emitted a pungent aroma.

The Western Wild Buddha, standing nearby, also couldn't escape the area; he was blown to pieces, his head and face covered in blood.

The invisible flames enveloped the two demons, instantly severely damaging their foundation.

Only then did Changmei slowly and methodically explain to the disciples of Shushan.

The reason why Master Guiyi was able to roam freely in the southwest, exorcising demons and monsters, was largely due to the power of divine fire.

The Records of Famous Swords of Mount Shu states that this sword was forged by a Buddhist patriarch using the essence of southern fire and western gold. In reality, these two divine materials were combined to seal the third power within the divine sword.

The formless and intangible power within is a power from beyond the realm, which was obtained by the primordial spirit traveling beyond the heavens.

If the combined power of the twin swords of Mount Shu were to be added with the power of the third extreme, it would be strengthened a thousandfold, and could even cut through the limits of the human realm.

"Unfortunately, the true combination of two swords is already extremely difficult, and the combined power of three swords is almost impossible."

Long-browed Man truly lives up to his reputation as the founder of the sect; his insight is extremely sharp.

The correct use of the Nanming Li Huo Sword has been deduced: it is most suitable as a material for synthesis, especially for the Tian Lei Twin Swords.

Having said all that, it's clear that his control over the Nanming Li Huo Sword has reached its peak. Taking advantage of the situation to kill the divided spirit of the old Buddha Zha Li and replacing it with the spirit that parasitizes the crystal is just a matter of course.

At this moment, the eerie blue flames exploded again, and the two demons escaped in a sorry state.

Venerable Poison Dragon was furious at losing face and damaging his sect's most precious treasure.

Knowing that a deadly battle is inevitable today, let's fight!
With a sinister laugh, he suddenly waved his hands, and countless scarlet sand grains poured out from his sleeves, creating a yellow mist and red cloud, accompanied by faint sounds of thunder. Instantly, the sky darkened, and ghosts wailed and gods howled.

Under its full force, the world truly transformed with a chilling gust, and the formless, invisible red sand swirled. Majestic and boundless, it rose from the azure sky.

The red sand was already vicious, and the poison it contained was even more potent. It was a technique created by Venerable Poison Dragon for his own lineage, which combined the five natural poisons with the three human poisons to refine it.

No matter how powerful a swordsman or knight-errant is, if they get even a little bit involved, they will either die or fall into a coma.
