Who is spreading rumors that my filial piety towards them has changed?

Zuo Qiuchi pondered whether she should go with Chu Mingkong, since she couldn't be of much help to Yun Nongyu anyway.

But considering that a little fox brought the news, it's acceptable.

"Alright, let's split up for a while then. When something happens, you should prioritize Nongyu's side!"

"Take this to Nongyu and see if she can use it when she advances in rank."

Chu Mingkong tossed another white jade porcelain bottle to Zuo Qiuchi. It contained nothing new, just the same water from Yaochi.

If time allowed, Chu Mingkong would have loved to drag the system girl to take a bath and see if the water she soaked in had any magical effects.

......

Chu Mingkong arrived at the mouth of the valley and, using the Domain of Annihilation, hid in the shadows to observe the situation outside.

Considering that the newcomer might be very powerful, relying on his Nirvana Domain, he did not swagger around, but quietly observed.

"There are indeed quite a few people, including quite a few monks, and members of the demon tribe..."

Chu Mingkong saw that some monks with decent cultivation were escorting a lot of people from the demon tribe over.

It seems that these demons had fled far away, but they were still caught and brought back by the monks.

Chapter 174 How can so many people fit through the back door?

A large number of people gathered in the temple ruins.

This is the first time such a lively and bustling scene has been witnessed since the last time the demons borrowed this place to cultivate.

The vast majority of those gathered here were cultivators who had come just to see what was happening. The sudden activation of the teleportation array for the forbidden area of ​​the Spirit Palace was essentially equivalent to the emergence of a treasure-filled secret realm, naturally attracting cultivators to watch and investigate whether anyone had the ability to enter the forbidden area.

They had been gathered here for a day or two, but at this moment, the vast majority of cultivators were observing from the ruins, not daring to attempt to enter the forbidden area of ​​the Spirit Palace. Naturally, this was because some unlucky souls had already risked their lives for them.

Among the group of cultivators, there were three or four unusual individuals tied together, their minds clouded, muttering incomprehensible gibberish.

These guys thought the danger in the forbidden area was over and there was nothing to worry about, so they rushed in without hesitation, and this is what happened to them.

"It's fortunate that these fellow Daoists didn't go too deep, otherwise we wouldn't have been able to rescue them."

"Actually, their hallucinations were so severe that they must have rushed in a long distance. They were just lucky to be able to turn back after losing their minds. Of the ten people who accompanied them in, only these three are left. It is unknown when these three will be able to break free from their hallucinations."

"Something's not right, fellow cultivators. Is the news about that teleportation array true or false? Judging from this, it doesn't seem like the trap in the forbidden area has disappeared. How could someone have entered?"

"Moreover, I remember a long time ago, several powerful beings at the Saint Venerable level, led by their own leaders, went inside to investigate, but they never found anything."

In the general understanding of the people of the Heavenly Realm, the inheritance in the forbidden area of ​​the Spirit Palace had long been taken away, leaving nothing behind. It was only because that force did not want its ancestral land to be occupied by others that it turned this place into a forbidden area that outsiders could not set foot in.

In summary: poor and dangerous.

The monks talked for a long time, but their attention was still drawn to the Buddhist monks.

"I heard that two monks of saintly status from the Buddhist sect died here. The old monk sitting on the giant elephant came to stand up for them and is about to kill the demons in these small settlements to search their souls."

"That giant elephant also seems to be a Saint Realm expert, a beginner Saint... How could it have been tamed as that old monk's mount?"

"It seems to be Master Dazhi. He's an old monster who has been rarely active in recent years!"

During the conversation, a member of the demon tribe was beheaded. The monk did not give them a chance to explain their struggles and directly searched their souls.

Unfortunately, nothing was gained.

Chu Mingkong watched from the shadows, feeling displeased.

"Choosing to do this at the mouth of the valley, is it because they've determined I'm in a forbidden area? I guess they're showing off to me, trying to provoke me?" he pondered to himself.

He recalled that he had some impression of the people who fought alongside him in the Demon Tribe, but many of those who had been arrested and brought back were people he had never met before.

It was probably some of the demon tribe members who secretly slipped away while the two monks were preoccupied, but Chu Mingkong still remembered some of them.

Seeing the tragic scene, Xiao Zhuyan felt uneasy, and her fluffy ears drooped down.

"What's wrong?" Chu Mingkong stroked her tail.

"Those demons over there, their relationship with my family is so-so, because they always slander me, calling me a stupid fox, but I just think they are jealous of my intelligence, and they have never actually done anything bad to me or my mother."

We've been colleagues for many years, and there's bound to be some affection between us, but now we have to watch them like this...

The little fox explained to itself that it was because they were careless and not nervous. With such a big thing happening, why didn't they run away? They can't blame anyone for being caught.

But it's inevitable that there will still be some disappointment.

Outside the temple ruins, a child from the demon tribe was brought out. He was crying so hard that snot bubbles were coming out of his nose. He was sobbing uncontrollably, his throat was hoarse, and his steps were unsteady and slow, like a prisoner being led to the guillotine in fear.

Chu Mingkong patted the little white fox's head: "Go back and call Qiu Chi or Dong Lu."

Little Zhu Yan was puzzled, but didn't ask. She nimbly and nimbly skipped among the flowers and leaves, running back to deliver the letter.

Just as the monk's sword was about to fall, an arrow suddenly flew in, its extreme yin energy piercing through the sword. The arrow, like a meteor, carried the monk and the sword away.

The sword-wielding monk had already gathered his strength to steady himself, but in the end, he was no match for the small arrow.

The monk sitting atop the giant elephant, who had been resting with his eyes closed, suddenly opened them. His body was aged, but his gaze was like that of a lion awakening from its slumber.

"Finally, you've come out. From the remnant souls of these little demons, I saw a blurry shadow, a trace that was blocked by the power of extreme yin. It seems that it is you, the stowaway from the lower realm."

"I was wondering why there was a little fox spying at the entrance to the forbidden valley; I was right."

Chu Mingkong understood. When Xiao Zhuyan came out to check the situation, she only glanced at it briefly, but the old monk had already seen it. This whole thing was staged specifically for him.

No, it wasn't entirely for his benefit. Even if Xiao Zhuyan's whereabouts hadn't been exposed, the monk would still have killed these demons to search their souls and find clues.

"I acknowledge the wisdom of the Buddhist masters." Chu Mingkong put away his hunting bow and took out his heavy sword.

These few words of conversation startled the cultivators who had come to seek their fortune. In stunned silence, they retreated one after another. There were a few people who had been watching over the cultivators who were under the illusion, but now they were all gone, leaving only three people who were not in a good state of mind talking nonsense.

No wonder you're so indifferent, fellow Daoist. This is a sign of an impending great battle. Even if you're just watching, you should stay as far away as possible, or you'll be caught in the crossfire and it'll be the end of you.

The Buddhist community's compassion wouldn't extend so generously to them!

"Did you hear that? That monk said it was extremely Yin power, and that man came from a lower realm?"

"Could it be that the person mentioned in Yanling City who came out of the Jinghuan Spirit Palace is this one!?"

"I've heard that the environment in the lower realms is harsh and unsuitable, and the people there only have very low spiritual cultivation levels, yet this man dares to confront Master Dazhi!"

"I've remembered some old rumors. Could it be that another demon is about to emerge from the lower realms?"

Chu Mingkong appeared nonchalant and carefree, but in reality, he was wary of the monk's methods.

He noticed that the miasma seemed to be quietly approaching, vaguely intending to block the valley entrance and cut off his retreat.

"This demonic miasma was indeed caused by your Buddhist sect!" Chu Mingkong sneered.

"I do not know." The monk Dazhi remained expressionless, and the aura behind him immediately burst forth with golden light.

Like a door that had been opened, two more monks emerged from the golden light.

One is a Bodhisattva, and the other is an Arhat monk.

Chu Mingkong's lips twitched as he looked at the scene; he had thought there was only one old monk!

"You old man, are you a human teleportation portal? Your back door is quite large, it can fit two Buddhist disciples of extraordinary character in one go! How many times has someone used this back door?"

At that moment, a thunderclap suddenly rose from the sky, and a huge figure appeared on the gray, dark clouds, like a mysterious being hidden behind a stage curtain, ready to make its appearance.

As the dark clouds dispersed, the seraphim immortal stood majestically before everyone!

Chapter 175 The Female Corpse Behind the Seraphim Immortal

The little white fox arrived just in time to return to the place where the ceremony was being prepared. This place was some distance from the Palace of Illusion, and the Palace of Illusion had now been hidden again.

She rushed over, but before she could even speak, the sky suddenly shook. The natural fear of living beings made the little white fox unable to move. Its legs tensed up, and it forgot that it was still running. Then, the sliding tackle happened.

Two long claw marks stretched out, with a slightly drifting arc.

Zuo Qiuchi noticed the little creature and scooped her into the Yin Shield. The little fox then came to her senses, panting heavily. She hadn't seen any danger yet, but it felt like she had escaped death.

The little white fox hadn't forgotten what Chu Mingkong had told her, but she got nervous and couldn't explain things clearly.

All the key information points are like several fat people trying to walk out of a small door at the same time. They all get stuck there. One person's head comes out from one side, and another person's belly comes out from the other side, but none of them can walk out completely.

"My lord... the monks are going to be beheaded... so many people... I've come back to deliver the news."

Zuo Qiuchi was stunned. She was surprised by the "powerful" ability of the little white fox to express herself. Although she hadn't heard a complete sentence, the fact that the little white fox was there already spoke volumes.

“Mingkong saw that the monks were about to chop off other people’s heads, so he went out to cause trouble for those monks and asked you to come back and report to them.”

"Yes, yes, yes!!" Little Zhu Yan nodded her head like a chick pecking at rice.

She was worried that she hadn't explained things clearly, but she didn't expect that she had conveyed them so clearly.

"Should I go over and help Mingkong first?" Zuo Donglu asked.

Zuo Qiuchi shook his head and rejected his sister's suggestion:

"Wait, we still need to work together to maintain this Yin shield. Let's check on Nongyu's condition first. Mingkong sent Xiaozhuyan over to inform him, mainly to let him know his movements. If he felt he was no match from the beginning, he definitely wouldn't have jumped out rashly."

With Chu Mingkong by his side, everything was basically fine after he erected the Extreme Yin Shield, which could almost completely block the strange aura brought by this Lustful Immortal.

This time, Chu Mingkong was not by his side. Zuo Qiuchi and Zuo Donglu used the essence he "left behind" and the shared abilities to support this extremely Yin shield.

They could still vaguely feel the influence of the Celestial Demon, and a faint wave washed over their minds.

It doesn't have a big impact, but it gives you a feeling of trepidation, like walking on the edge of a cliff.

"Alright, then I won't go over there. I'll just use my flying sword to help him and check on his condition."

"Do you have to worry about her so much...?" Zuo Qiuchi looked at his younger sister helplessly. Despite her expressionless and indifferent appearance, he was very concerned about her!

Zuo Donglu used her two flying swords to break free of the shield and head towards Chu Mingkong's side to provide reinforcements.

The moment the flying sword left the Yin Shield, it immediately severed its connection with Zuo Donglu. The flying sword went out of control and fell to the ground. One hilt pierced the earth, while the other cleaved through the hard rock. The rubble and the flying sword bounced away together.

Furthermore, the sword underwent a transformation; the once straight blade became pliable, and after a series of twists, the end of the hilt finally took the shape of a woman's private parts...

Zuo Donglu tried to re-establish contact, but she couldn't do it no matter what. She could retrieve the item remotely, but she was disgusted with the way it looked.

"It's so scary outside?! Luckily, my mother stayed in the Spirit Palace, otherwise how could I have taken care of her safety!" Little Zhu Yan exclaimed, completely oblivious to the danger.

The key point is that she wasn't joking; she genuinely believed it.

Zuo Qiuchi and Zuo Donglu had to turn their attention back to Yun Nongyu, secretly praying that she could successfully overcome her tribulation.
