Perfect Double Agent

"it is good."

The immortal remained calm and did not refuse, displaying an extraordinary aura. If others saw a sect leader-level figure run directly into their lair, they would not be able to remain calm, but he was completely at ease.

"The Qilin Treasure Technique, please." Bai Ye tossed over a divine bone covered in runes. He had originally intended to exchange it for the Little Heavenly Horned Ant, but later he rejected that idea.

"Senior, aren't you afraid I'll break my promise? If the array is activated, I can still leave." The immortal carefully examined the bone in his hand, and at the same time took out a piece of white bone from his sleeve and began to carve on it.

Generally speaking, no one is willing to pass on their knowledge to others, not only to avoid being targeted, but also to keep a low profile.

Just like the banished immortal who not only possessed the Heavenly Ant Technique, but also the True Phoenix Technique, yet never revealed it.

A moment later, a piece of bone was sent over from a distance. Bai Ye glanced at it, examined it carefully, and then put it away. Even his figure dimmed.

This made the immortal breathe a sigh of relief. As a divine fire, no matter how monstrous it was, it was impossible not to be wary of a sect leader, especially since the other party had managed to break into this place. Although he was confident that he could evade the pursuit, the Qilin Treasure Technique had tempted him.

……

At this moment, outside the den of the evil spirits, atop a great mountain, Qingyi looked at the figure that had materialized beside her and couldn't help but ask, "Is he willing to make the exchange?"

“If we don’t exchange, something bad will happen…” Bai Ye stood on the mountaintop, gazing at the ancient land in the distance. Under the moonlight, a faint crimson hue seemed to be enveloping the entire world.

Qingyi pursed her lips, glancing at him out of the corner of her eye, and quietly kept him company. That night, this guy really wanted to devour her, but after seeing her arm, he retreated immediately and hasn't dared to get too close since.

"Was that really man-made...?"

"More than 100,000 have already died, and more will die." Bai Ye watched calmly.

As if to confirm his words, a flute melody suddenly rang out in that ancient land, and countless bizarre creatures surged out, accompanied by countless screams, forming a bloody killing scene under the moonlight.

Countless creatures surged out of the monstrous nest, their faces filled with terror, fleeing for their lives, unwilling to linger for even a moment.

Behind them, there were too many strange and powerful creatures, including even gods, who were launching indiscriminate attacks on everyone.

Ahead, the swarm of insects blotted out the sky, their flapping wings sending chills down one's spine, yet all the creatures that managed to escape were wiped out, turning the haunted nest into a true hell on earth.

Only a few figures escaped, pursued by a man wielding a bone flute.

Qingyi could see clearly that they were three brothers surnamed Shi, a man carrying a bow, and a woman with dragon horns.

"Killing so many people... If you add it all up, it must be close to 200,000..." Qingyi was shocked, even finding it hard to imagine. You must know that all those who were tricked and killed were geniuses. Nearly 200,000 geniuses, what kind of calamity was that?

Bai Ye remained noncommittal, gazing at the immortal in the center of the distant sea of ​​corpses. The immortal was absorbing the runes from one corpse after another, using this to cultivate, and even waved a greeting from afar.

He didn't resemble an executioner, surrounded by celestial mist; instead, he was as gentle as a banished immortal, yet the area around him was a living hell.

"Let's go." Bai Ye's figure faded away. There were many opportunities in the Immortal Ancient Realm, and many of them were worth searching for. He also wanted to help Qing Yi reach the perfection of the Divine Fire and prepare for the third strand of Immortal Qi.

The news spread the very next day, shocking the Immortal Ancient City. No one expected that the layout there was man-made. Someone had used the runes in other people's bodies to cultivate, killing more than 100,000 people, including several ancient monsters.

In an instant, the entire haunted house became a forbidden zone, and everyone turned pale at the mention of it.

Several days later, in the Dark Realm.

This is an ominous little world. Not to mention cultivators, even the natives are unwilling to enter, simply because the curse here is too terrible.

There also exists a black lake, rumored to contain something extremely terrifying.

Some say that during the ancient battle of the Immortals, one of the Ten Fiends perished, and his body fell into the lake, where it was eaten by a few mosquitoes, thus creating a terrifying race.

Some say that there are enemies there who were killed by immortals, and their corpses turned into pus and blood, forming a black lake.

Legends abound, and no one knows whether they are true or false, but on this day, two figures came from the horizon and found this strange place.

It was too quiet here, deathly still, and at the same time, it exuded an astonishing malevolent aura, like a filthy place between heaven and earth.

"You want me to cultivate in this place?" Qingyi looked at the black lake, then at herself emitting white light. The contrast was too great, as if she was about to roll in the mud.

"No, that's using malevolent energy to temper the body, comprehensively refining the physical form." Bai Ye smiled, of course, he needed to get rid of the mosquitoes first.

Chapter 361 Everything Ends in Nothingness

The lake was dark, filled with an astonishing aura of malevolence and killing intent, which surged forth as if to erode any living creature that entered.

"How does one cultivate oneself to possess an ethereal fragrance..."

Qingyi illuminated her surroundings, her gaze falling on the man beside her, her delicate nose twitching incessantly.

At first, she thought it was the scent of a divine medicine, which the man might have been contaminated with. But later she dismissed that idea. The fragrance seemed to emanate from within, purely from the body itself. The body was like a divine medicine, making one want to take a sip.

"The human body has powerful medicine; it will come when it is stimulated."

"Is it that simple? I don't know how it works!" Qingyi rolled her eyes.

"Yes, you just can't smell it." Bai Ye smiled meaningfully, making Qing Yi avoid his gaze and dare not reply.

Although this guy has been much more well-behaved lately, there's no guarantee he won't suddenly go berserk and cause real death.

In particular, she was certain that a female senior was living in her arm, with a terrible temper, who didn't pay much attention to her, and who could really kill someone if she was unhappy.

"Do you know that blood-red flower?" Qingyi asked curiously.

“Nourished by the essence of immortality, there are few in the world. It can isolate perception and deduction. At least, you will no longer worry about sharing Yuechan.” Bai Ye talked nonsense with a straight face. He never expected that the queen he did not go to greet would be encountered by Qingyi.

He didn't know what the other party was thinking. Perhaps their recovery had made some progress and they wanted to go out, or perhaps they wanted to keep Qingyi as a backup, but the latter was unlikely.

Once we leave the Immortal Ancient City, we'll try to get the old demon to bring out that female demon so we can all have a chat. After all, she's a female immortal king, and people like that are extremely rare.

To this day, there is only one Immortal Realm, which became a forbidden zone after the battle with Luo Mo; one Burial Ground, which raised a flock of phoenixes; one in the Nine Heavens, which entered the Primordial Gate; and only one in the Otherworld, which is half-dead.

Female fairy queens are so rare they're practically endangered.

As for whether the other party will accept Qingyi as their successor, it's hard to say. As it stands, the other party seems to treat Qingyi like an ant.

Just as Bai Ye was making his guesses, a sound of flapping wings suddenly came from the lake, coming from underwater and becoming clearer and clearer.

"There really are mosquitoes!" Qingyi exclaimed. It was a swarm of mosquitoes, some were real gods, some were heavenly gods, and the smallest were a meter long. Their amazing mouthparts were just like spears. If they were to stick into a person, it would be an unimaginable pain.

This made Qingyi shudder.

But beside her, Bai Ye was moving. With a single swing of his hand, his sleeves fluttered, forming a circle, like a transparent river halo, radiating an extremely profound and powerful force.

Its appearance caused the entire lake to fall silent. Suddenly, a black light shot out from the circle, and time stood still wherever it passed. The swarms of mosquitoes disappeared without a ripple, as if they had never existed!

It's this feeling, not disappearance, but rather the absence of something, like an empty, powerful force, as if there is no past, present, or future. If none of these three exist, what difference is there between this and death?

"What kind of supernatural power is this..." Qingyi was shocked.

In her mind, the female senior appeared for the first time. She was not asleep in the blood flowers, but was startled out. Her figure was extremely perfect, and her face was blurred.

"Let him teach you, and I can help you complete your primordial spirit later."

Qingyi: "..."

This senior was too direct, but when she tried to ask further, the other person disappeared again, and she didn't know if they had gone back to sleep or were secretly watching.

In the lake, however, the mosquitoes were fearless. Most of them were cursed and their minds were not clear. When the black light passed by, it seemed to have no effect, but it was terrifying and unforgettable.

"boom!"

The lakebed trembled, and a colossal creature flew out, exuding the aura of a sect leader. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be two Chaos Mosquitoes. Their eyes were fierce and they were incredibly violent, but when the beam of light swept over them, they were completely invincible and utterly devastating.

In just a moment, the lake became completely still.

Bai Ye, along with Qing Yi who was in a daze, was rapidly descending towards the bottom of the lake.

That was a new ability born from the combination of three great supernatural powers. It was very powerful and easy to use. As long as it was touched, everything would be reduced to "nothingness". It was an inconceivable power.

"Wait... Is that a fairy?" Qingyi, who had just regained her composure, was startled again, standing at the bottom of the lake, looking into the distance.

There lay a woman with long blue hair at the bottom of the lake, breathtakingly beautiful, with a flawless face and an excellent figure, her body pure white and radiant. She lay there like a sleeping beauty carved from white jade, peaceful and otherworldly.

Over the long years, her clothes had long since decayed, but her prominent breasts and other key areas were covered by armor forged from dark immortal gold, making her lifelike and still radiating astonishing vitality.

However, there was a trace of crimson between her eyebrows, where she had been pierced, her primordial spirit gone. Even the golden armor on her chest was covered with cracks, as if it had experienced an unimaginable battle.

"Is she still alive...? Could she be a female immortal?" Qingyi was very nervous; perhaps no one could remain calm.

"He should be dead." A soft sound rippled between Bai Ye's brows. The Time Book, which had been petrified, regained its crystalline appearance after a period of nurturing, radiating wisps of light that enveloped him.

A celestial corpse is of immeasurable value, equivalent to a peerless medicine. Even if it is kept in its lair, it will constantly exude celestial essence. He is not so pedantic as to simply bury it for peace.

The only thing that made him wary was whether the other party had any celestial artifacts left behind, but that was unlikely.

The white night passed, and holding the bone cauldron, protected by the Book of Time and Space, he approached the female immortal under Qingyi's tense gaze.

This is astonishing. Let alone immortals, even after the death of a supreme being, ordinary sect leaders cannot get close. Even after death, such figures will form a terrifying aura and field around their bodies, which cannot be desecrated by lower-level beings.

However, some people remained completely unperturbed.

"Bai Ye, what are you doing... How could you take off her clothes!"

Qingyi stared wide-eyed as a valiant man squatted in front of a stunningly beautiful woman who was only covering her vital parts. He reached out and poked her, and when she didn't react, he actually started to tear off her armor.

It was an unimaginable scene: a stunningly beautiful woman, motionless yet radiating astonishing vitality, seemed to be asleep, allowing herself to be at the mercy of others. Before her, a refined man carefully removed his armor, his gentle movements as if afraid of offending the gorgeous woman. The two, one still and one in motion, created a breathtaking scene that made one's imagination run wild.

Rumor has it that many extraordinary talents have unknown quirks, "This guy..."

"Bai Ye, don't do this! You're being indecent!" Qing Yi was furious and reacted strongly, her full chest heaving violently, a very pleasing sight.

"If you need... me..."

"What the hell are you thinking? I'm retrieving immortal gold, okay?" Bai Ye rolled his eyes. After a moment, he gave up and took out a coffin made of world stone.

Most importantly, he also felt that this was wrong, after all, it was immoral to leave a female fairy without any clothes.

He was lucky; if this female immortal were placed in the heavens, not only would she be stripped of her armor, but not even a single hair would remain.

Chapter 362 The Celestial Palace Within the Waterfall

Seeing this, Qingyi quietly breathed a sigh of relief. The female immortal was placed into the coffin, and the oppressive aura disappeared, allowing Qingyi to approach. Looking at the peaceful sleeping beauty inside, she couldn't help but wonder, "In her current state, if she were buried in the underworld, would she be able to regenerate her primordial spirit?"

“The Netherworld won’t work; it needs to bury all things in the earth to create that possibility. But if Yuechan works with Qingyueyan, they should be able to take over.”

Of course, the Queen within Qingyi's body could also do that, easily unleashing immortal combat power. The other party hasn't reacted yet, probably because they don't think much of her.

"My God, you're still thinking of different ways to blaspheme? I'm sure the original body would never agree to that!"

With a "bang," Qingyi cried out in pain, clutching her head, her eyes brimming with tears.

"If you used that kind of imagination for cultivation, you'd be a true god by now!"

Bai Ye remained silent, his gaze falling on a section of dragon bone not far away. It was only ten zhang long, yet it exuded an astonishingly terrifying aura.

These are the bones of a true dragon, imbued with the aura of the dragon race. They were likely immortals in life, but unfortunately, their flesh and blood have long been devoured by mosquitoes, leaving only a skeleton. However, some dragon marrow essence still remains within those bones.
