Begin immortality by slaying demons

“Greetings, Divine General.”

After cleaning up the mess, it was Shen Yi who first cupped his hands, offering a calm greeting.

Among the Three Sects, he held the best impression of the Orthodox Gods.

The words 'ruthless and unfeeling' are derogatory when applied to humans, but they take on a different meaning when applied to these Orthodox Gods who govern the laws of Heaven.

It could be said that the stability of this world today relies on the existence of these deities.

Moreover, it was with their help that Hong Ze's grievances were finally cleared.

“……”

Seeing the cultivator who had been ruthless just moments ago suddenly become so refined and gentle.

Divine General Qi Feng was stunned for a moment, feeling somewhat unaccustomed, even experiencing a strange sense of being flattered.

He awkwardly adjusted his posture, cupping his hands in return with the courtesy due to a peer: “If I remember correctly, we shouldn't be strangers.”

“Indeed, we are not.”

Shen Yi nodded slightly. To be precise, the two were much more familiar than this Divine General imagined.

Although the identity of Immortal General Qian Qing was orchestrated by Qing Hua, she was merely a wisp of demon soul. This golden body was born from the Yin God nurtured by Shen Yi, and he personally refined the vast power of incense and vows to forge it.

In other words, this was actually his avatar.

Occasionally, when he had nothing to do, Shen Yi had the habit of taking control of this avatar to learn more about the Orthodox Gods.

“So, what exactly is going on?”

Divine General Qi Feng suppressed the shock in his heart, intending to get a clear explanation.

Even at this moment, he did not feel that the crisis had been resolved.

To put it bluntly, based on the young man's performance just now, the pressure he exerted was even greater than the Five Directions Bodhisattva and the two demon dragons.

The changes in his thoughts could completely determine the life and death of their group of Orthodox Gods.

“The Bodhi Sect intends to save these demons and send them to serve under Nan Huang.”

Shen Yi did not hide anything. Although he could roughly judge from the Five Directions Bodhisattva's performance that this group of high and mighty Orthodox Gods was likely already being controlled.

Moreover, the dominance of the other two sects was already a foregone conclusion. Even if the matter was exposed, it would be difficult for the Orthodox Gods to influence the two sects.

But in any case, giving the Orthodox Gods some preparation could at least delay them for a while.

“Audacious!”

Divine General Qi Feng instinctively gritted his teeth, but then looked at the young man in the distance: “So, you are…”

The Buddhist light that the other party had previously revealed clearly indicated that he had completed the Three Transformations of a Bodhisattva, possessing the strength to control the overall situation, yet why did he choose to 'rebel' in this situation?

“To walk in the world, one must have an identity.” Shen Yi turned his eyes to the side and responded.

“That's true.”

Divine General Qi Feng twitched the corner of his mouth, recalling the Old Ancestor Shen Xu just now, and his eyes narrowed imperceptibly: “But it seems you have more than one identity?”

“……”

Shen Yi did not speak, but simply looked over.

His clear eyes did not seem to carry any malice.

However, Divine General Qi Feng felt as if the other party was looking at an idiot. His face flushed slightly, and he couldn't help but clear his throat: “Ahem.”

A ruthless person who dared to infiltrate Nan Sumeru, sit in the position of Bodhisattva, and massacre people of the same sect without any scruples, while also having an unclear relationship with the Three Immortal Sects.

Such an existence must have great plans in his heart.

Divine General Qi Feng straightened his body and bowed to Shen Yi again: “In any case, if it weren't for your help today, the guarding of the Eight Extremes Valley for so many years would have been meaningless. I thank you here, fellow Daoist.”

After finishing the salute, he lowered his hands: “I wonder what your plans are after this? Is there anything you need us to cooperate with?”

The Orthodox Gods may not be sentimental, but that doesn't mean they are brainless.

The words of the Five Directions Bodhisattva just now served as a slight awakening for this group of beings who had been at the top since the beginning of heaven and earth.

After experiencing many great tribulations and long years.

The cultivators of today are no longer the beings who were once like ants. Even the outstanding ones are only crudely imitating themselves and others.

Among them, some have even walked further ahead, seeing the scenery that the Orthodox Gods have never experienced.

The fall of a Bodhisattva will inevitably not end there.

Divine General Qi Feng could certainly return to the Immortal Court, report to his superiors, and then question the Bodhi Sect.

But with the current attitude of those thieving monks, it is likely that they will just perfunctorily deal with it and no longer take the Orthodox Gods seriously.

It would be satisfying, but it would not help the matter at all.

“If possible, I hope that the Divine General can temporarily suppress this news and not let the Bodhi Sect notice.”

This was exactly what Shen Yi was waiting for. For the Gods, Buddhas, and Immortals, even a hundred years is but a snap of the fingers, but for himself, perhaps a few years could bring about a variable.

This was also his greatest advantage.

“Rest assured, that's not a problem.”

Without involving favoritism or perverting the law, Qi Feng decisively agreed.

“Then thank you all, farewell.”

Shen Yi turned around and stepped directly into the Realm of Emptiness.

Even after his aura dissipated in the Eight Extremes Valley, Divine General Qi Feng was still somewhat stunned.

He just left?

One must know that even though the other party already possessed such terrifying strength, he was still nothing in the face of the behemoth that was the Orthodox Gods.

After doing such a big thing, he didn't mention any credit at all.

Wasn't that a little too unrestrained?

“Tsk.”

Recalling the situation when he saw the other party in Hong Ze last time, Qi Feng rubbed his face, feeling quite incredulous.

Could it be that the world has really changed drastically, and the world is no longer what it used to be?

While this Divine General was lamenting, Old Ancestor Shen Xu quickly finished cleaning up the entire Eight Extremes Valley. He was not good at fighting people head-on, but when it came to sweeping up demons with low cultivation, it was likely that few among the Third Rank could compare to him.

The previous mighty battle had already destroyed the white mist in the deep valley.

Many Orthodox Gods quickly gathered, only able to infer from this scene of devastation what kind of horrifying things had happened before.

“First take Divine General Haochuan back. I will take responsibility for the report. None of you are allowed to leak any information.”

Qi Feng shook his head, collected his thoughts, and looked at the golden body in the crowd.

Remembering the words he had reminded Qian Qing a few days ago.

He inexplicably felt a little ashamed.

If it weren't for this friend of the other party, they would have suffered a great loss today.

Moreover, someone who could crush two experts of the same realm and make even Old Ancestor Shen Xu obey him, why would he need to plot for a small Fourth Rank Immortal General?

To put it bluntly, Qian Qing didn't even have the qualifications to be his vanguard.

“Stop looking, he's already gone.”

Qi Feng slowly walked to the side of the golden body and reminded her softly.

“……”

Madam Qing Hua looked distantly at the horizon, her expression unchanged, but anyone could see the reluctance in her eyes.

The other Orthodox Gods were silent for a long time, and bowed to this Immortal General in unison.

Originally, in their eyes, even if Qian Qing performed well, she was only more agreeable than other Immortal Generals, and they were willing to associate with her, but in their hearts, they always felt that the other party was one level lower.

They had also heard some things about Qian Qing having a backer in the mortal world.

The name of the Grand Void Pill Emperor might be in full swing, and it had indeed helped Qian Qing solve a lot of troubles, but after all, he was only a younger generation of the Three Sects. Relying on him as a backer was really not a very commendable thing, not as good as any Immortal Sect Old Ancestor.

But today, this colleague had proved with practical actions that if they really encountered trouble, even if the other party was a Bodhisattva or a Demon Lord, they would still have to lie on the ground.

The fact that they were still able to stand here was all thanks to Qian Qing's existence.

“I'm fine.”

Madam Qing Hua was stunned for a long time before finally withdrawing her gaze.

She just felt a little sad.

When she first left Hong Ze, she couldn't let others know about her relationship with her master, and she had to hide it carefully.

But Qing Hua was not worried at all.

Because she knew that this process would not be too long.

Sure enough, in just a few years, her master first killed Ziling, then Qingluan, and leaped to become the top powerhouse in the world.

He no longer needed to hide these things.

She could also openly salute him in front of everyone.

But… she could no longer keep up with her master's pace, and it was difficult to be of any use anymore.

“……”

Qi Feng, as an Orthodox God, had long seen the warmth and coldness of the world.

With just one glance, he could see Qing Hua's thoughts.

He hesitated for a moment, and then looked at the expressions of his subordinates around him, and suddenly realized why Shen Yi had left so unrestrainedly.

Not mentioning credit was because these credits belonged to someone else.

“Be content, the things he left you make even I a little envious.”

Divine General Qi Feng smacked his lips and couldn't help but sigh.

He originally thought that Qian Qing's path of leaping forward had come to an end. After all, the gap between the Fourth Rank and the Third Rank was the difference between a general and a great official of the Immortal Court.

He didn't expect that this path would eventually be opened up from the Orthodox Gods.

Even without counting the Five Directions Bodhisattva, just the two Thousand-Foot Black Dragons were enough merit.

“I will listen to the Divine General's decision.”

Faced with such abundant merit, Qing Hua showed an unusual calm.

After she respectfully saluted, she turned and walked into the crowd.

At this moment, a familiar, gentle voice flashed through Qing Hua's mind.

“When you're done with the matters over there, send me the remaining corpses of the demons.”

It was still that concise and concise attitude, too lazy to say even one more word.

But within that towering golden body, a bright smile suddenly bloomed on the face of the alluring beauty.

“Reporting to my lord, Qinghua obeys!”

… …

In the vast and boundless desolate gray mist.

Only a single figure sat cross-legged, accompanied by a six-winged soul worm.

Shen Yi slowly opened his eyes.

Prompts leaped up on the panel, flashing one after another.

Compared to the tens of thousands of eons of lifespan of a Rank 3 Great Demon, the two or three hundred eons of lifespan of a Rank 4 demon seemed somewhat insufficient.

But the advantage lay in their sheer number.

The Demon Valley, which required such a formation of True Gods to suppress, and which had undergone such a long period of reproduction and growth, was now completely annihilated, actually managing to accumulate over five thousand eons!

【Remaining Demon Lifespan: 24,000 eons】

The majority naturally came from the two Thousand-Legged Black Dragons.

Shen Yi was not in a hurry to cultivate.

Instead, he first took action to condense two Suppression Stones.

The reason he had asked Divine General Qi Feng to temporarily suppress the news, so as not to let the Bodhi Sect notice anything unusual, was because he had other thoughts.

Even if the Five Directional Bodhisattvas were to fall due to an accident, sending the Great Demons to aid the Southern Emperor could still continue.

【Remaining Demon Lifespan: 21,400 eons】

As the words on the panel changed, the two still-warm and fragmented demon corpses transformed into a river of blood, merging into the Suppression Stones and reviving.

“Greetings, my lord!”

The two long dragons knelt and lowered their heads, more obedient than well-trained dogs.

In fact, they didn't even need to experience the trials of the Demon Origin. Whether it was the Divine Void Old Ancestor or the Black Dragon brothers, after experiencing being beaten to death alive by that six-armed Dharma form, they would naturally develop fear towards this young man.

Shen Yi casually plucked a piece of gray mist, gently kneaded it with his fingers, and then flicked it towards the two Thousand-Legged Black Dragons.

The gray mist seemed to cover the dragon bodies like a thin veil, gradually fading in color, making the figures of the two dragon demons blurry.

After all, Suppression Stones were not living things.

If he wanted to deceive the eyes of those Great Demons, he needed to do some disguising.

“Hoo.”

Shen Yi also tried this method for the first time, unexpectedly with excellent results.

He gently exhaled a breath and smiled with emotion.

The Divine Dynasty was indeed generous, but spending this Imperial Qi on himself was definitely not a loss.

Which Southern Suppression General would be so diligent as to actively run into the lairs of old demons to seek death?

Having prepared for the things to come, Shen Yi then turned his gaze towards the Bodhisattva Fruit Position within his body.

If he wanted to increase his chances of survival, his own strength was the most important thing.

It could be seen from the previous battle with the Five Directional Bodhisattvas.

When facing these powerhouses who were truly famous throughout the Great Southern Continent, his thirty-six Fruit Positions had clearly fallen into a disadvantage.

If all went smoothly, this demon lifespan would be enough to raise the Fruit Position to nearly sixty.

But this was also the problem.

If he couldn't think of a way to complete the Six-Six Transformation in advance, and simply piled up the origin of the Heavenly Dao Order, he would easily end up like the other two Southern Suppression Generals.

“Transformation…”

Shen Yi chewed on these two words, gradually feeling a headache coming on.

It should be known that even the Thousand-Armed Bodhisattva, whom he had been referencing all along, had not yet completed the Six-Six Transformation, and the Divine Void Old Ancestor, who was closest to this threshold, was a Qi Refiner of the Three Immortals Sect, completely ignorant of the path of the Ascetic.

Moreover, given the other party's appearance of cultivating to the point of being possessed, constantly relying on devouring disciples and pills to maintain his realm, it was still debatable whether he had truly approached the Six-Six Transformation.

The Bodhi Sect had ten thousand volumes of true scriptures.

Shen Yi hadn't read a single one, purely a blind wanderer.

“Will this work?”

However, he was also accustomed to these days of groping around haphazardly.

Shen Yi carefully recalled the Fruit Position banners that the Five Directional Bodhisattvas had offered earlier. The so-called Five Directions were actually the transformations of the Five Elements.

The power of protection placed the greatest emphasis on the word “stability.”

What it emphasized was like a towering mountain, unshaken by wind and rain.

Speaking of stability, what could compare to this world?

Apart from these, his Bodhisattva Fruit Position was based on the amber beads that nourished the Dragon-Tiger Yuan Power, so perhaps he could find a way out from within it.

Having gained some ideas, Shen Yi no longer hesitated and directly opened the panel to deduce.

“…”

The Divine Void Old Ancestor quietly hovered beside him, already stunned.

He had never seen any cultivator cultivate so casually. If this could succeed…

The Old Ancestor originally wanted to swear to eat something, but when he thought that his master had even done things like simultaneously gathering the power of Transformation into Emptiness and the power of protection, his mouth wriggled twice, and he swallowed the remaining half of his words back into his stomach.
