Shulong Daojun

Upon hearing this, both the tall and short Taoist priests felt that the matter was quite thorny and very difficult to handle.

However, after exchanging a glance, they both saw a hint of excitement in each other's eyes.

Since attaining the status of a celestial being, they have been engaged in the work of moving mountains and opening roads to benefit the people.

While this move may bring a good reputation, it ultimately falls short of the original purpose.

Unable to unleash their full power in a battle to test their own abilities, they were itching to fight and couldn't find the satisfaction to do so.

I thought that was the only way.

Unexpectedly, while here to exorcise the whale, I encountered a group of unknown earth immortals. How wonderful!

Just in time!

The short Taoist priest's eyes flickered, and he suddenly stood up, grinned, and said, "Elder, there's no need to worry."

They're just a bunch of cowardly rats who dare not show their true colors. What's wrong with them gathering together?

I then summoned several fellow Daoists for help, and together we wiped them all out.

Having said that, he flipped his hand and took out a communication jade talisman, poured his divine sense into it, and sent out a message.

Shou Zheng's expression showed slight surprise.

At this moment, the tall Taoist priest spoke up, saying, "Elder, please don't worry."

With those three rules in place, those cowardly cowards will be hesitant to act for fear of harming others, and we will have nothing to fear.

After all, exorcising demons is the duty of the Taoist sect; who would dare to object?

As he spoke, he glanced sideways, pondered for a moment, and then, having already formulated a plan, slowly began to speak:

"In this situation, we only need to take the initiative, find the trail of the muddy whale, and then kill it."

If anyone continues to obstruct them, they will join forces with other fellow Daoists to force them to reveal their origins and techniques.

At that time, we will be able to deduce its origin and then, in the name of breaking the rules, join forces with the Demonic Sect to attack it.

Either way, it will benefit our Taoist sect.

After he finished speaking, he smiled calmly, clearly confident of success.

Shouzheng lowered his gaze, remaining silent as he pondered whether the matter was feasible.

A short while later, he glanced at the short Taoist priest and asked softly, "How many people did you invite, fellow Taoist?"

"Four fellow Daoists are available to come and assist us when they have time," the short Daoist replied.

Shouzheng nodded slightly, feeling much more at ease.

Including the three in the hall, there are a total of seven earth immortals.

Even if unforeseen circumstances arise, we will have the capacity to cope.

This is feasible.

Without further hesitation, he said in a deep voice, "Let's proceed according to the plan of the two fellow Daoists."

After saying this, the tall Taoist and the short Taoist bowed to each other and left the Zhengmai Hall, splitting into two groups to carry out their own business.

One of them infiltrated the earth's veins, using the size of cities as a benchmark, searching for traces of the turbid whale from large to small.

One was to receive the Taoist immortals who came here, explain the plan, and also use the earth veins to conceal themselves and help the tall Taoist.

With the frequent visits of the Earth Immortals, Fu Yuan was suddenly enveloped in a period of peace.

......

However, within a hidden crevice, a somber atmosphere prevailed.

Before anyone could be seen, a melodious voice rang out: "You demons and monsters have surely witnessed the sincerity of our Demonic Sect."

"What have you thought about joining forces to counterattack the Daoist sect?"

The sound faded, but there was no response.

Only after a dozen or so breaths did a rough voice finally ring out: "We will naturally agree to what the young lady has requested."

We've already done such crude things together, how could I bear to betray you, hahaha.

After laughing, his expression suddenly changed, and he said in a deep voice, "But please show yourself quickly, young lady, so that I can see your true face."

Otherwise, I'll always feel uneasy, so I guess I'll have to reconsider the alliance.

Li Ye remained silent upon hearing this, sighed, and finally revealed himself from the shadows.

The Taoist sect is powerful.

Although they had a good opportunity to seriously injure that Daoist, they temporarily leveled the gap in the number of Earth Immortals who had attained the Daoist and Demonic paths.

However, they suffer from a lack of newly promoted Earth Immortals, far inferior to those of the Daoist sect.

Therefore, they decided to join forces with the demons and evil spirits to first drive the Taoists out of this place, and then divide it up.

However, considering that both the Demonic Sect and the Taoist Sect belong to the human race, the evil spirits took a probing action.

Those who share the same karma are naturally fellow travelers.

They happened to witness a Taoist immortal slaying a turbid whale, and after some discussion, they decided to join forces to stop it.

Now that he had shown enough sincerity and the person had appeared, Li Ye simply reverted to his original voice and asked, "How is it? Is it...?"

Before he could finish speaking, a barrage of angry curses came crashing down on him: "Bah! You despicable human cultivator!"

He actually dressed up as a woman, ruining my sincere feelings for him. What a shameless bastard!

As the voice faded, a burly man with eyes like copper bells slowly appeared.

Although it looks like a human, its neck is covered with fine scales that extend upwards to wrap around its cheeks and down to its large ears.

Upon hearing the insults, Li Ye's face darkened, and anger rose within him.

However, after briefly sensing the aura emanating from the burly man, he instantly concealed it, adopting a fawning smile, and said:

"I will proceed with caution, and hope you will forgive me, fellow Daoist!"

He then gave a slight bow, followed by a meaningful glance: "I don't know..."

The burly man narrowed his eyes, revealing a fierce glint in his eyes. He sniffed the air a few times and said with relish, "Ah, that... of course, there's no problem at all."

We are not as treacherous and cunning as you.

Upon returning, I will inform my elder brother, and he will decide and discuss the follow-up matters.

As soon as he finished speaking, he swallowed hard.

Upon hearing this, Li Ye was overjoyed, but his body trembled as if he had been startled.

The monstrous man's actions were so terrifying that they made him feel extremely uncomfortable.

Especially now, he looks as if he's about to devour himself.

However, recalling the unusual movements of the Daoist sect in Fuyuan, he suppressed his discomfort and asked:

"Currently, all the Earth Immortals of the Daoist sect are searching for that turbid whale with all their might, and they should be able to find its trail soon."

"Since we are of the same kind, will you protect it? Do you need the secret assistance of my Demonic Sect?"

Before the burly man could speak, she frowned and continued:

"Due to the verbal agreement, we cannot go all out and can only offer assistance as appropriate. We hope you will understand, fellow Daoist."

Upon hearing this, the burly man glanced at it and said disdainfully, "Turbid whale? Why save that beast?"

After attaining the Earthly Immortal rank, he continued to cultivate in the form of a whale, and thus became a stranger to us.

Moreover, it is a big problem in itself.

Not only do they eat their own kind, but also, influenced by the barnacle demons covering their bodies, they might go berserk one day and devour us whole.

"His death is truly a wonderful thing."

The big man spoke of it with unusual ease, as if it were a trivial matter.

Li Ye nodded and smiled, "That's good, it saves us a lot of effort."

Now that my business is done, it's time to head back. I'll await your good news, brother.

He then handed an unidentified communication jade talisman to the burly man, bid farewell, and attempted to disappear.

Unexpectedly, the big man suddenly spoke up and laughed, "Why are you in such a hurry to leave?"

"We still have one more matter that requires the assistance of you human cultivators."

"Oh? What is it?" Li Ye paused and asked softly.

The burly man grinned menacingly, licked his lips, and said, "That beast still has some use."
