Bitter Realm: Otherworldly Gods and Demons

Chapter 165 Some are happy, some are sad

The Hall of Eternal Life.

Inside the main hall, everyone took their seats and remained silent.

Wentian Di, Zhaomu Zun, Gailu Kuangxi, and Wuseng were alright; they simply returned empty-handed.

Shun and Yin Qiujun were blasted out of the formation looking disheveled and seriously injured. Jia Zifang was the most seriously injured and was carried directly into the medical room.

However, neither Shun nor Yin Qiujun seemed to have suffered serious internal injuries. Both of them had used the Undying Abyss again. Yin Qiujun's injuries were fully healed, but like Zhao Muzun, Pan Lu Kuangxi, and Wu Seng, after using the Undying Abyss, she was essentially a medicine person.

"Or they are our own people from the Hall of Longevity." The Ancestral Priest had already told them that by using the Source of Immortality, they could replace their internal organs so that they could fight bravely without any worries in the future.

After a long silence, Yi Cantian said in a deep voice, "One setback is nothing, everyone should not be discouraged. However, this time quite a few problems have been exposed."

Yi Cantian paused, not saying what the problem was. These people were all arrogant and unruly. If he were to say in public that Lu Kuangxi was disobedient, this mad dog would immediately turn on him.

If he dared to say that Shun was incompetent, he had no doubt that Shun would make him furious.

Some things are better left unsaid in private later.

"Shun, Yin Qiujun, what did you gain from this exploration of the Immortal City's formation?"

Upon hearing this, Shun pointed at Yin Qiujun and said, "I'm an amateur. Next time you want to fight, come to me, but don't come to me to break formations."

Yin Qiujun then said, "Cang uses Leiyang as the core of the formation, and its power is even greater than that of the Fengshui Forbidden Land. It is extremely difficult to break through this formation from the outside, but if we can bypass the outer formation and go straight to the formation eye, we may be able to find a way to break it. However, the formation eye must also be heavily protected."

"Um----"

After a moment of contemplation, Yi Cantian said, "Having failed to encircle Cang this time, he will surely be more cautious. I will try to find a way to bypass the outer formation. At that time, we will need everyone's collective wisdom and efforts to destroy the formation's core, and the Fountain of Immortality will be within our grasp."

Shun said, "You decide, but don't make me break into the Immortal City again. I'm not going. Next time, I'll draw fire from the outside."

"Ha! Cowardly wretch!"

The ruthless madman couldn't hold back any longer and pointed behind him with his thumb, "Come on, if I don't beat the shit out of you today, you'll be considered clean."

"Who's afraid of who! You bastard, I'm going to electrocute you!"

"Wait a moment!"

Yi Cantian said in a deep voice, "If you two continue to disregard the overall situation, you will only drag everyone down with you!"

"I'm tired. Call me if you need anything."

He waved his hand briefly and left.

"Brother, let's go too, it's too stuffy in here!"

Gai Lu Kuang Xi also left with Wu Seng, but not to intercept Shun. Shun went to the meditation room to rest, while the two of them left the Hall of Longevity to get some fresh air.

Yi Cantian didn't try to stop them. These three were all thugs, and it would be quieter without them.

Yi Cantian then said in a deep voice, "The Tearful Sun Formation is no small matter. I hope that the three of you can put aside the past, focus on the future, and work together to break this formation."

Yin Qiujun glanced at Zhao Muzun. At this moment, his anger had subsided considerably, but his hatred remained undiminished—meaning he would not cause any more trouble, but he should not give Zhao Muzun any opportunity to target him.

Yin Qiujun calmly replied, "I have no problem."

Zhao Mu Zun knew Yin Qiu Jun too well. When Yin Qiu Jun wasn't making a fuss, it was much more troublesome than when he directly vented his anger.

But now that everyone is an ally, and since Yin Qiujun has made her stance clear first, he has no choice but to prioritize the bigger picture.

Zhao Muzun nodded and said, "I feel the same way. Please tell me about the follow-up plans, Your Majesty."

"Yes, that's how I see it, that's how it is—"

Demon world.

The Child of Pardon was in a vast open space, with an ice-fireball like the sun floating in the air, and strong winds howling around him.

Suddenly, wind blades attacked from all directions. She Sheng let out a soft shout, spun around, and used wind against wind, shattering all the wind blades with a tornado.

But then, a lot of icy vapor surged from the ground, combining with the wind blades to form ice blades, which relentlessly attacked She Sheng.

She Sheng summoned lightning to shatter them one by one, only to see the ice blades ignite into blue flames that then attacked him.

She Sheng was truly valiant, pushing his power to its limit and revealing his red-haired killing form. He unleashed a barrage of attacks, shattering all the assaults, and then pierced the ice-flame fireball with a burst of energy, causing the fireball to explode and shattering the surrounding space.

He then returned to the wilderness of the demon realm.

Blue flames still lingered in the sky, while Teng Xie remotely controlled the array formed by the blue flames and the demonized ley lines from a distance.

Tengxie paused the formation and came to Shesheng. How does it feel?

"It's alright, this will only last for a short while, it won't be able to hold me back."

So the next step is to add more variations, incorporating the five elements, combining forward and reverse five elements, creating formations within formations, and pitfalls within pitfalls—that would be quite interesting.

She Sheng said he was indeed very interested in that kind of challenge, "I'll come and test it then."

Heh, don't get beaten up and cry later. Alright, you can play with this thing.

As Teng Xie spoke, he tossed the array plate to She Sheng. "I'm going to find the Wolf Lord to refine a more complex array plate. Until I return, you can vent your excess energy here—hey little brother, have you thought about other ways to vent your energy?"

For example, go find a few witches or something?

"Is there any expert I need to deal with?"

Never mind if I didn't ask, you go ahead and play, I'm leaving now.

She Sheng nodded. "Besides challenging the strong, honing his martial arts skills is his greatest pleasure. This formation is quite difficult. When he can't fight with experts or spar with Tunfo and Daowen, this is his best gym."

Tengxie went to the Evil Furnace, and Bujianque had already returned. He still wanted to wander around outside, but he was afraid of having a romantic encounter.

How could an old man like him possibly have a romantic encounter? If he did, it would surely be a witch that the War General had placed in his possession.

Teng Xie and Bu Jianque discussed it and then crafted a brand new array plate. His mastery of the Tearful Sun Array was steadily and rapidly improving. In a while, he would be able to replicate the Tearful Sun Array and even add some new elements to the replica.

After he finished crafting the array plate, he did not immediately test it. Instead, he went to the Demon Dragon's Nest and took two pieces of flesh and blood that the Demon Dragon had just generated.

He had previously used those ten portions of the Undying Source to conduct some experiments and made two wolf fang necklaces, one for She Sheng and the other still integrated into the Demon Dragon Mother's Nest.

He also made the dragon absorb the source of immortality, giving birth to an organ that did not need to nurture life, but instead specialized in creating flesh and blood full of vitality.

Teng Xie brought the two pieces of flesh to the workshop, cut off a small piece from each piece, then took out a drop of the Undying Source and dripped it into one of the pieces. He then shaved off another small piece from the other piece of flesh, and then made a hand seal to release a secret incantation.

Then, with an unfathomable burst of sword energy, he completely destroyed the life force of this piece of flesh.

Then another piece of flesh was suddenly surrounded by an inexplicable force and continuously destroyed by it, and soon its life force was completely destroyed.
