Forced to become a pure and innocent female pharmacist in order to cultivate immortality.

Chapter 160 Joining Forces with the Battle Dao Palace

During his recovery period, Ye Liuyun and Lin Aoxue did not continue forward, but waited for him to fully recover before planning to leave.

About fifteen minutes had passed.

The young man stood up with a look of astonishment, because the healing effect of this pill was too good. In just over ten minutes, he had recovered completely.

Seeing that he had recovered, Ye Liuyun and Lin Aoxue did not waste any more time and chose to continue their journey, but they knew they would have to be careful along the way.

"Alright, fellow Daoist, now that you're healed, let's take our leave. We'll meet again someday." Lin Aoxue said goodbye to Ye Liuyun and then left.

The young man was taken aback, and was about to ask the two people's names when Lin Aoxue had already taken Ye Liuyun into the sky and flown away.

"This? They just left like that, without even leaving their names? Sigh!" The young man was somewhat disappointed, but he was in a bad mood and had to hurry back to report the matter to the sect. Losing five disciples in one go was a huge loss for a small sect like theirs.

Let's take another look at Ye Liuyun and Lin Aoxue, who continued flying towards the inner perimeter.

"Aoxue, what are your plans?" Ye Liuyun asked.

"What are your plans? Don't you still have some pills to test? You can't touch the good people, but you can't touch the bad people, right? Isn't this a suitable candidate?" Lin Aoxue said in a deep voice.

Ye Liuyun understood what Lin Aoxue meant. Since they had encountered an evil cultivator, Lin Aoxue was going to cause trouble for him. After all, since the two of them had come across such a thing, it was only right and proper to deal with this evil cultivator as well.

After all, their purpose in coming to the Six Yang Mountains was to find such people to test medicines on. Moreover, this is the territory of the four major sects, and they certainly cannot allow evil sects to run rampant here.

Most people wouldn't dare to actively seek trouble with evil cultivators, but Lin Aoxue wasn't afraid; she had killed quite a few evil cultivators.

Lin Aoxue searched along the way and found that people who practiced this type of cultivation technique were very bold in their actions, and there must have been other cultivators who were robbed along the way.

Sure enough, not long after, they found several more cultivators who had died tragically, their bodies drained of blood. In addition, there were wild beasts and weak demonic beasts killed along the way, all in similar condition.

"These evil cultivators are truly ruthless killers. This is the ninth person to be murdered, and the one who was killed was at the Spirit Pattern Realm. Judging from the commotion here, the battle shouldn't have lasted too long." Ye Liuyun felt more and more that the lives of cultivators were fragile.

"I sensed a trace of the Dao Palace realm aura. It seems that the person who killed them was a Dao Palace cultivator. Since there is still a trace of aura left, it means that the battle here just ended not long ago." Lin Aoxue's gaze became increasingly cold and sharp.

After saying that, she closed her eyes and used her divine sense to spread out in all directions, searching for the whereabouts of that evil cultivator from the Dao Palace.

"East? Liuyun, let's go after them." After saying that, Lin Aoxue once again led Ye Liuyun eastward.

Meanwhile, in a secluded cave somewhere to the east, a young man dressed in blood-red clothes was practicing his martial arts. He had a chilling aura about him, with lips stained red with blood and pale skin, giving off an unsettling feeling.

Practicing unorthodox techniques will more or less cause certain changes to the physical body.

This person is named Yang Qing, but he is not a rogue cultivator. He is a cultivator from the evil sect, the Blood Demon Sect, which is a small evil sect in the Southern Ridge.

Unlike the righteous sects, heretical sects operate in secrecy and remain hidden in the shadows.

The cultivators of this Blood Demon Sect practice a technique called the Blood Demon Technique, which requires the use of blood for cultivation. Once one cultivates this technique, one can never leave the blood for the rest of one's life.

This is a side effect of the cultivation technique. Cultivators who practice the Blood Demon Technique improve their cultivation level based on the intensity of the blood they absorb. The more blood you absorb, the more you improve, regardless of your aptitude.

Most unorthodox cultivation techniques are like this: they are suitable for cultivators with poor aptitude, but most of them require paying a price.

"Hoo... The blood and qi strength of cultivators at the Sea of ​​Wheels realm is still too weak. It's simply not enough for me to improve my Blood Demon Technique. I need to find a cultivator with a higher cultivation level to attack." Yang Qing said, his eyes flashing red.

However, just as he finished refining the absorbed blood and qi, Yang Qing suddenly sensed someone approaching him.

"Someone is rapidly approaching me? Have I been discovered?" Yang Qing immediately frowned and became alert.

Lin Aoxue's spiritual power was much stronger than that of a normal Spirit Pattern Realm cultivator, which is why she was able to detect Yang Qing's residual aura. She followed the aura and came all the way here.

“Found him, right here. Liu Yun, find a place to hide and watch me deal with him,” Lin Aoxue gestured.

Ye Liuyun nodded, then swallowed a pill, instantly making his body invisible. He then took a Lightness Pill and jumped down from the sky.

After confirming that Ye Liuyun had landed, Lin Aoxue didn't hesitate and slammed her sword towards the location where Yang Qing was hiding. The power of this sword directly collapsed the cave where Yang Qing was.

Yang Qing hadn't expected the newcomer to be so direct, attacking without warning. The crucial point was that, in his perception, the opponent was merely a Spirit Pattern Realm cultivator. How could someone at the Spirit Pattern Realm accurately pinpoint his location? And with such precision?

Yang Qing flew out of the ruins. As soon as he emerged, his body was filled with a bloody light, and behind him was a Dao Palace overflowing with blood energy. This Dao Palace felt completely different from the Dao Palace of a normal cultivator.

Yunxin and the others' Dao Palaces were ancient and grand, and the higher the cultivation level, the more exquisite the Dao Palaces became. But this guy's Dao Palace was like a palace of blood.

"How dare you! A mere Spirit Pattern Realm cultivator dares to chase after us? I clearly sensed the presence of two people just now. Where is the other one hiding? Tell him to come out." Yang Qing looked around, but unfortunately, even he couldn't pinpoint Ye Liuyun's location.

"Did you kill all those people?" Lin Aoxue asked.

Yang Qing laughed when he heard this.

"Hahaha, if you were a Dao Palace cultivator, I might say no, but you, a mere mid-stage Spirit Pattern Realm cultivator, dare to cause trouble for me, a Dao Palace cultivator? I really don't know if you've lost your mind." Yang Qing sneered.

In his eyes, Lin Aoxue's actions were undoubtedly a foolish act of courting death.

But at the same time, he was also puzzled. If he didn't know that Lin Aoxue was a Dao Palace cultivator before, it would be understandable that he would dare to chase after her. But now that he had revealed his Dao Palace, why was Lin Aoxue still so calm? He vaguely felt that something was wrong, and he kept looking around.

He was wondering if there were any powerful enemies lurking around.

"Stop looking, you damned bastard, take this!" Lin Aoxue wasn't one to waste words. Now that she was certain the other was the evil cultivator, she made her move.

Lin Aoxue drew her sword, and instantly a blue light emanated from it, with streaks of sword light flying towards the evil cultivator.

"What? Instead of running away, they dare to attack first?" Yang Qing was stunned.

But what confused him even more was yet to come. Yang Qing raised his hand, and a bloody light emanated from it, blocking in front of him. He thought that with his level of cultivation, he should be able to easily block Lin Aoxue's attack.

But when Lin Aoxue's attack landed on his blood energy defense, he realized he was wrong.

With just three sword lights, his defenses cracked.

Yang Qing's pupils contracted sharply.

"Impossible? How could this be? My defense was broken by a mid-stage Spirit Pattern Realm cultivator?" Yang Qing stared in astonishment at the cracks in his defenses.

But Lin Aoxue didn't give him a chance to be stunned. Taking advantage of the moment when the other party was in a daze, Lin Aoxue suddenly used the power of the Feathered Immortal Body.

"Ascension to immortality".

A blur shot out from Lin Aoxue's body and flew towards Yang Qing.

Yang Qing instinctively tried to resist, but his resistance seemed to have no effect. Lin Aoxue's will directly pierced through his body and struck his soul with a sharp sword.

This is a life-or-death battle. If Lin Aoxue has the chance to severely injure her opponent, she will not hold back.

"Ah..." Yang Qing then let out a shrill scream as she plummeted from the sky.

He was stunned by the attack, or perhaps he was too confident when facing a cultivator weaker than himself.

Lin Aoxue liked this kind of opponent. He thought he was highly skilled and let his guard down. Ascension to immortality was something that could be dodged, and cultivators at the Dao Palace level could easily evade it.

Her move has a range limitation; the farther away you are, the less effective it becomes.

"Damn it, a soul attack?" Yang Qing already knew what was going on, but it was too late to regret it. This attack gave him a splitting headache, and he had no way to immediately launch an effective counterattack.

And just as he was about to land, he suddenly sensed danger behind him. He instinctively tried to dodge, but unfortunately, it was too late. An invisible palm strike landed heavily on his lower back.

Although this palm strike was only a physical attack, it actually penetrated his physical defenses and injured him.

"Pfft!" Yang Qing spat out a mouthful of blood; his soul and body had been struck twice over.

Unfortunately, the Dao Palace was indeed the Dao Palace. Two consecutive attacks failed to deprive him of his ability to resist. He unleashed a burst of power from the Dao Palace realm, blasting the invisible Ye Liuyun away in one breath, thus breaking Ye Liuyun's invisibility.

He bounced like a ball, flying a long way before crashing into a big tree and coming to a stop.

"Pfft! Holy crap, is he that strong?" Ye Liuyun spat out a mouthful of blood. He was injured, but it was nothing serious; he would recover soon.

This was the first time Ye Liuyun had ever been attacked by a Dao Palace cultivator, and he couldn't withstand it at all; they were far stronger than cultivators at the Wheel Sea Realm.

"Liu Yun, damn it, I'm going to kill you." Lin Aoxue's face immediately turned extremely ugly when she saw this scene, and the power of her nine spiritual runes erupted at the same time.

Its aura instantly surpassed the Spirit Pattern Realm and entered the Dao Palace realm.

Chapter 161 He Ran Away

After sensing the power unleashed by Lin Aoxue, Yang Qing's expression changed drastically. He had already begun to realize that something was wrong, and now he basically understood why Lin Aoxue dared to come to him—she had the confidence.

"Damn it? This power fluctuation... it's even comparable to the peak of the first level of the Dao Palace realm. And this is still only at the Spirit Pattern Realm? I was careless and misled by her realm." Yang Qing realized he was in trouble.

And it could be a huge problem that could cost you your life.

Lin Aoxue flew towards him with terrifying power. After landing, Yang Qing quickly summoned a sword that was filled with blood-red light. Under Yang Qing's control, the sword transformed into a streak of blood-red light and shot towards Lin Aoxue, in an attempt to block Lin Aoxue from flying towards him.

At this moment, Lin Aoxue was in a state of extreme rage. She casually struck the blood sword with her sword, and Yang Qing's magic weapon was shattered by Lin Aoxue before it could even withstand three breaths.

"This? So powerful?" Yang Qing's face darkened as he watched his treasure shatter. He had no choice but to make a decision.

Lin Aoxue was less than twenty feet away from him when he spat out a mouthful of blood and then made a hand seal.

"Blood Shield".

Yang Qing used a secret technique. The moment Lin Aoxue's attack landed, his body was suddenly enveloped in red light, then turned into a ball of blood and merged into the ground.

As soon as Lin Aoxue saw that the other party was using this method, she knew that the enemy wanted to escape.

"Trying to run? Wind Spirit Sun Slash."

Lin Aoxue focused her power on her sword, and the sword shone with a bright blue light. A burst of sword light struck the area where Yang Qing had disappeared from a distance of more than ten feet.

The ground in this area suddenly cracked and collapsed with great force. If it had hit Yang Qing, he would have been seriously injured and rendered unable to fight, even if he hadn't died.

Unfortunately, it was too late; Yang Qing had already disappeared. When his presence reappeared, he was already a hundred feet away.

Moreover, four clumps of blood emerged from the ground and fled in four directions. Lin Aoxue sensed Yang Qing's aura and wanted to give chase, but how could she do that?

The secret technique Yang Qing used was a means of escaping; all four clumps of blood carried Yang Qing's aura.

Lin Aoxue has only a one in four chance of finding the real body. If she catches up with the fake body, then it will be a waste of time.

Lin Aoxue originally wanted to give chase, but after realizing she couldn't determine the other party's true identity, she stopped. She was even more worried about Ye Liuyun's situation, and then she snorted coldly in annoyance.

"I'll remember you. You better not let me see you again." Lin Aoxue could only shout angrily at the surroundings before heading towards Ye Liuyun's location.

Lin Aoxue clearly saw Ye Liuyun get hit by the opponent, and she didn't think Ye Liuyun's cultivation level was enough to withstand the attack of a Dao Palace Level 1 cultivator.

Even she couldn't directly confront the power of the Dao Palace cultivators, and could only rely on her speed to dodge.

"Liuyun, are you alright?" Lin Aoxue asked anxiously as she approached Ye Liuyun.

However, when she got to Ye Liuyun's side, she found that Ye Liuyun was acting as if nothing had happened, and she was brushing the dust off her body.

I was a bit disheveled just now.

"Don't worry, I'm fine." Ye Liuyun had fully recovered.

But in reality, if she were a normal person, that shock would have shattered her internal organs, and she would be dead beyond any hope of survival.

"This?" Lin Aoxue was stunned when she saw Ye Liuyun looking completely unharmed. She had clearly seen Ye Liuyun spit out a mouthful of blood, so he must have been seriously injured.

But after carefully examining Ye Liuyun's body, she found that apart from spitting out a mouthful of blood, Ye Liuyun seemed to be perfectly fine.

"Are you really alright? Good heavens, you withstood an attack from that evil cultivator from the Dao Palace and are completely unharmed? How did you do that?" After confirming that Ye Liuyun was indeed uninjured, Lin Aoxue was completely confused.

"Do I look like someone who lacks self-awareness? I naturally have my own ways to avoid getting hurt. As for that mouthful of blood just now, it was just a mouthful of blood caused by this guy's pressure. It's nothing," Ye Liuyun said with a wry smile.

Lin Aoxue breathed a sigh of relief, but after that, she became furious again. Like a tigress, she pounced on Ye Liuyun and knocked him to the ground. Then she reached out and pinched the soft flesh on Ye Liuyun's face, giving him a fierce warning.

"You scared me to death! The other party is a cultivator at the Dao Palace realm! How dare you? Who gave you the courage to ambush him? Do you even have the ability to kill him?" Lin Aoxue scolded angrily.

She had told Ye Liuyun not to come near, but he didn't listen.

"Oh dear, oh dear, I was wrong, I was wrong. I was just trying to help you relieve some of the pressure. My palm strike just now still hurt him, otherwise this guy would probably have fought you for a while longer. It's just a pity. I don't know what tricks he used to get away." Ye Liuyun immediately admitted his mistake.

"I'll say it again, I'll tell you when I need your help, and when I don't need your help, stay as far away as possible and don't take matters into your own hands, okay?" Lin Aoxue reminded her again.

Ye Liuyun had no choice but to nod.

After all, Lin Aoxue didn't know that Ye Liuyun was immortal, and before Lin Qingyou allowed Ye Liuyun to tell her, she could only keep it from Lin Aoxue.

Then look at Yang Qing, that guy has already escaped far away.

A mass of blood energy appeared beside a stream, quickly coalescing into a human form, revealing Yang Qing.

As soon as Yang Qing regained his human form, he spat out another mouthful of blood. He was in very bad condition and was already seriously injured.

He hadn't completely dodged Lin Aoxue's sword strike, which had already injured him. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and used a secret technique to escape, otherwise he would have been finished today.

This guy was very decisive; as soon as he realized something was wrong, he ran away.

"What an amazing woman! How could someone at the mid-stage of the Spirit Pattern Realm unleash the combat power of a peak first-level Dao Palace Realm cultivator? And that woman who ambushed me from the shadows—I didn't even sense her presence. Fortunately, her power wasn't great." Yang Qing lay on the ground, one hand involuntarily touching his lower back. He felt as if his lumbar bones were probably cracked, and the pain was excruciating.

If this injury were to occur to an ordinary person, they would probably be paralyzed.

"Ah! I'll have to learn my lesson. I can't underestimate cultivators with lower cultivation levels than me anymore. Looks like I need to find a place to rest for a while. What bad luck." Yang Qing took a deep breath, then chose a direction and left, probably to find a place to rest.

As for Ye Liuyun and Lin Aoxue, they have also calmed down.
