Outpost city.
Rong Jie stopped here and asked, "Fellow Daoist Ling, would you like to go in and take a look?"
"During the time that Fellow Daoist Ling was away, Qianshao City has been managed by Tan Xiao, the sixth disciple of Qingmang Tianjun."
"His seventh disciple, Zhu Huai, was severely punished and taken to Nijie City to guard it for five thousand years."
Her words were very polite.
After all, this human cultivator from the Qingmang Sect had been in the Molten Fire Lake for more than ten years!
She was already considered the top among the Rongshan Clan's Void Refining cultivators, but her longest record was only forty-nine days.
It is human nature to admire the strong.
Even though she looked down on the human race, she still admired such strong people.
Chu Xuan nodded and strode into the outpost city.
After a while, they arrived at the city gate.
The middle-aged monk who guarded the city gate was still the same one from that time.
But now his temples are already gray.
There was also a young Qi-refining practitioner helping out.
The young Qi Refiner saw Chu Xuan and immediately shouted, "Who are you? Do you have a city residence token?"
However, when he saw Rong Jie and others behind Henry Chu, he immediately kept silent.
There was a hint of fear on his face.
Since the death of Rongba, no one from the Rongshan tribe has come to the outpost city for a long time.
Why are there people coming again now?
The middle-aged Qi cultivator was dozing off, but came back to his senses when he heard the voice.
When he took a closer look, his eyes widened.
"Xuan Daojun? It's Xuan Daojun?!"
"This is behind you..."
The young Qi Refiner was also shocked and immediately half-knelt down, "Xuan Daojun? Daojun, please forgive me, I have never seen your face before and I didn't recognize you."
Henry Chu waved his hand and said, "It's okay, you guys just guard the city with peace of mind, I'm just taking a walk here."
"As for them, don't worry about them."
The two watched Chu Xuan leave.
The young Qi Refiner was filled with admiration and lowered his voice to ask, "Didn't they say that Xuan Daojun was taken to the Molten Mountain Land?"
"Now it has come out intact, as if it was sent here by these Rongshan people!"
The middle-aged Qi Refiner sighed, "Yes, it's been eleven years. Our Xuan Dao Jun is truly amazing! He killed the Rongshan Clan in public, and yet he returned so calmly."
The young Qi Refiner nodded repeatedly, "My idol is Xuan Daojun! In comparison, the other disciples of Tianjun are nothing but crap. They wouldn't dare to offend Rongshan..."
The middle-aged Qi cultivator glared at him and said, "Shut up! How can a mere Qi cultivator like you and I say such things?"
The young Qi Refiner then shut his mouth in resentment.
In the high tower.
As soon as Henry Chu walked in, he heard Tan Xiao's scolding.
"Useless things! Get out of here!"
Several people rolled out quickly.
He looked closely and saw that it was Zhu Gan and his men.
These people all had sad faces, and it was obvious that they had suffered a lot since Tan Xiao took charge of the outpost city.
When they saw Henry Chu, they were stunned at first, and then showed an incredible expression.
The two people at the city gate were at a low level of Qi Refining and didn't know much.
But as out-of-body cultivators or the descendants of void-refining cultivators, they know a lot.
Ling Xuan was imprisoned in the Molten Fire Lake in the Molten Mountain!
Even the Rongshan people themselves didn't want to stay there for long.
It has always been a place where traitors and criminals were exiled and left to fend for themselves.
Ling Xuan was imprisoned there for eleven years!
During this period, Qingmang Tianjun also went to Rongshan to ask for someone.
But the two Heavenly Kings of the Rongshan Clan refused to give in.
Many people assumed that Ling Xuan was burned to death in the Molten Lake.
Including them, they also said so angrily in private.
Because the Rongba incident was exposed, they were also implicated to a certain extent.
Of course, they didn't know that Rongba was colluding with Duoxiu.
If you knew and still made friends with him, your fate would be even worse.
Because of this, they felt particularly surprised when they saw Ling Xuan again.
A person who had been dead in their hearts for eleven years actually appeared intact!
How can it not be shocking!
"I told you to get out, didn't you hear me..."
Tan Xiao's angry voice sounded again.
Then, it stopped abruptly the moment he saw Henry Chu.
"Eighth Junior Brother, you're back? You're still alive?"
Tan Xiao looked as if he had seen a ghost.
Henry Chu smiled slightly, "Yes, he's still alive and well."
"The Rongshan Clan sent me back, and I plan to go back to the mountain gate to pay my respects to my master."
"I passed by the outpost city and came to see you, brother."
Tan Xiao's mouth twitched.
Look at me?
You and I don't have such a good relationship.
He looked at Rong Jie behind Chu Xuan, smiled, and cupped his hands, "Fellow Daoist Rong Jie, it's a pleasure to meet you."
Rongjie just nodded without saying a word.
Tan Xiao looked a little embarrassed.
Henry Chu waved his hand and said, "Let's go."
Tan Xiao looked at their departing figures with a complicated expression.
He just couldn't understand how Ling Xuan could stay in the Molten Lake for eleven years without any harm?
Now he is being treated with such courtesy by Rongjie and others, and he is being sent back at his leisure?
Could it be that the two Heavenly Kings of the Rongshan Clan are acting?
Ling Xuan wasn't actually thrown into the Molten Lake?
But this is not reasonable either.
I can't figure it out no matter how hard I try.
…
Qingmang Sect.
The sect's main hall.
Chu Xuan bowed and said, "Greetings, Master."
Qingmang Tianjun looked Chu Xuan up and down, walked over with a big laugh, and helped Chu Xuan up.
"I went to Rongshan several times to ask for you, but they refused to hand you over."
"I never thought that my disciple is really a great person!"
"To have stayed in the Molten Lake for eleven years!"
"Looking at the Rongshan Clan, no one is better than you on this point!"
His face was full of smiles, and he looked at Henry Chu with eyes full of relief.
Henry Chu could also see that he was trying hard to act like a kind-hearted master.
As for how many times Qingmang Tianjun went to the Rongshan Land?
Only twice.
Rongjie had already told him about it on the way.
Able to say "twice" as "many times".
Qingmang Tianjun is also very thick-skinned.
Chu Xuan bowed, "My disciple was once struck by fire in his early years, but there was no abnormality."
"Until recently, when I was taken to the Molten Lake, the fire was rekindled. That's why I was able to stay there for eleven years."
Qingmang Tianjun was surprised, "So it's spiritual fire? No wonder, no wonder."
Even the acquired spiritual fire can only be refined by geniuses.
As for the innate spiritual fire, it is something that can only be encountered by chance.
Qingmang Tianjun had guessed early on that Chu Xuan must have obtained an acquired spiritual fire, which was why he was able to stay in the Molten Fire Lake for eleven years.
Now that this disciple has taken the initiative to speak out, he is even more satisfied.
A good disciple does not hide anything from his master.
"You've suffered a lot over the years."
"That Rongba should have been killed. Well done to you for killing him."
"The Rongshan Clan is truly arrogant, imprisoning you for eleven years."
Qingmang Tianjun paused, thinking that perhaps he should give some compensation, and said, "Master's treasure house is open to you. Take whatever you want. That is what you deserve."
Chu Xuan bowed, "Thank you, Master."
He came to see Qingmang Tianjun specifically because he was waiting for the other party to feel guilty.
Just as he was about to leave, he heard a woman's surprised voice outside.
"Brother Xuan! I miss you so much!"
Immediately afterwards, the soft and fragrant body fell directly into his arms.
Seeing this, Qingmang Tianjun's face turned ashen.
Chu Xuan pushed Ning Youwei away, bowed to Qingmang Tianjun, and then left.
Ning Youwei wanted to chase after him immediately.
Qingmang Tianjun frowned deeply, "Stop, you and he are not Taoist companions, how can you behave like this?"
Ning Youwei snorted, turned around and left, not taking Qingmang Tianjun's words seriously at all.
Qingmang Tianjun sighed and frowned deeply.
Ling Xuan was able to stay in the Molten Lake for eleven years and still had a spiritual fire in his body, so he did have some strength.
But what else?
Has there been any progress in his realm?
Until now, he is still in the early stage of refining emptiness.
How could he hand his daughter over to Ling Xuan?
In comparison, Zhong Pan and Dong Ren are much better.
Each of them is a member of the side branch family of a certain Heavenly Lord.
His own qualifications are also good.
This kind of person is the excellent Taoist partner he chose for his daughter.
…
Fushan Lake.
Henry Chu had already taken what he needed from the Qingmang Treasury.
Two pieces of cold prison sky stones.
This object contains the great way of water and the great way of ice, and is a rare, top-grade spiritual object.
Originally, Qingmang Tianjun only wanted him to choose any top-grade spiritual object.
But Ning Youwei followed him into the treasure house.
So, Chu Xuan came out with two pieces of Hanyutian Stone in his hand.
No one dared to stop him.
After returning to Fushan Lake, Chu Xuan received another good news.
During these eleven years, Dongxu's clone has never slacked off.
Constantly searching for treasures in the void.
Several high-quality spiritual objects were also found.
Chu Xuan estimated that all the high-grade spiritual objects put together would not only be enough to completely replenish the five spiritual roots, but also have some left over!
"As expected, as long as you work hard and persevere, the fifth-grade spiritual root is not a dream at all."
Chu Xuan nodded with satisfaction.
Right now he needs to go into seclusion, a seclusion where he won't be disturbed by outsiders.
Because the spiritual roots must be completely replenished, this process cannot be interrupted.
He had previously practiced hard in the Molten Lake for eleven years before he was able to complete his Heavenly Grade Fire Spiritual Root.
It will take at least another forty years.
After much thought, he thought of the molten mountain again.
Perhaps only there could he practice without worrying about the disturbances of the outside world and concentrate on his cultivation.
If I stay in Fushan Lake, who knows what troubles may come my way.
But he was just about to go out.
Then he saw a Qingmang Sect disciple who had reached the out-of-body state flying in the air.
"Eighth Uncle, urgent news!"
"Blood Moon Demons have appeared in many places."
"The other Dao Lords all have their own missions."
"The Heavenly Lord orders you to lead five out-of-body disciples to Lanyu City, which has been captured by the Blood Moon Demon."
"The Blood Moon Demon in the lead has reached the middle stage of the Void Refining Realm."
Henry Chu raised his eyebrows.
The evil beast invades the territory?
This is not right.
Qingmang Territory is the rear base of the Eternal Battlefield.
And it is managed like an iron barrel by the Tiandao Immortal Alliance.
If the evil beast wants to get close to the Qingmang Domain, it has to break through the layers of obstacles outside.
How did these things suddenly appear?
The out-of-body disciple said respectfully, "I heard that a void crack suddenly appeared."
Chu Xuan seemed to be thinking about it. "In that case, go pick a few out-of-body states and follow me to Lanyu City immediately."
"yes!"
A moment later, Chu Xuan and his group of six headed straight for Lanyu City.
…
at the same time.
A figure descended upon the Rongshan Hall in Rongshan Land.
Both the molten coke and the molten charcoal bowed respectfully to the three-meter-tall woman.
"Greetings to the Heavenly Lord."
After paying his respects, Rongtan immediately said, "I think the Heavenly Venerable still doesn't know about the situation of the World-Destroying Tribulation Flame. I..."
He planned to explain the situation to the Heavenly Lord in front of him immediately.
The woman closed her eyes, as if observing something.
Rongjiao gave Rongtan a look, signaling him to shut up.
The two could only wait quietly.
After several dozen breaths, the woman opened her eyes again, "I already know about the situation of the World-Destroying Tribulation Flame."
"Would you two be willing to do something for me?"
Rongjiao and Rongtan were stunned. "It's up to the command of the Heavenly Lord."
The woman said casually, "The agitation of the World-Destroying Tribulation Flame is not accidental, but is caused by external factors."
"There is a traitor within the Rongshan tribe, which is why external factors were brought in."
Upon hearing this, Rongjiao and Rongtan were both shocked and angry.
What was shocking was that the Immortal Lord had never even been to the Molten Lake, but just by closing his eyes, he knew the current situation of the World-Destroying Flame from a distance.
What makes people angry is that there are traitors within the Rongshan tribe.
The molten series has been cleared out by them.
There are traitors hiding even deeper.
The woman said calmly, "The traitor is unimportant."
"The news of my coming to the Molten Mountain has already been spread."
"If nothing unexpected happens, the Blood Moon Demon has already begun attacking the Qingmang Region, and will attack the Molten Mountain Region next."
"What I want you to do is very simple. Put on a good show with Qing Mang."
The molten coke and the molten charcoal looked at each other and immediately nodded in understanding.
"I will follow the order of the Heavenly Lord."
The woman nodded, and with a flash of her figure, she appeared in the molten lake.
The world-destroying fire must be suppressed.
Even if she set up this trap, she had to make it real.
Everything is done to lure the big fish into the trap.
The woman went straight to the deepest part of the Molten Lake.
The flames here are so bright and fierce that any cultivator below the Tribulation Crossing Stage will be burned to ashes just by looking at them.
But she was not afraid at all.
The angry flames of the World-Destroying Calamity Flame wrapped around her body, but could not hurt her at all.
"Finally someone has arrived."
A fiery red shadow appeared.
Compared to when he talked with Henry Chu ten years ago, the shadow has faded a lot.
"Senior Rong, nice to meet you." The woman nodded.
The fiery red shadow said with relief, "When we first met, you were still a little girl that the Ancient Emperor picked up from the snow."
"Now it has become a giant in the area."
"You peed all over me back then..."
The woman had a blank expression on her face. "Senior, please don't mention this kind of thing."
"Besides, you are only four thousand years older than me."
The fiery red shadow laughed heartily. "Tell me, what are you going to do?"
"I don't care what schemes you've set up outside, you must suppress this world-destroying flame."
"Otherwise, not to mention the melting mountain, even the Qingmang Domain and the nearby Liuming Domain will be burned to ashes by the world-destroying flames."
"And it will get out of control."
"It is very likely to awaken a dormant evil ancestor."
The woman nodded. "I came here to suppress it. The fake must be made real."
"That's good." The fiery red shadow breathed a sigh of relief.
The two men shouted softly, and the avenue of energy gushed out from their bodies.
It was as if they were the embodiment of the Tao and had already merged into the heaven and earth.
Rather than one person.
The fiery red shadow said casually, "By the way, a little guy came here not long ago, and I smelled your scent on him."
The woman nodded, "Wuqiu asked me to do him a favor, and I did."
"You can probably guess it's to avoid the punishment from the Blood Realm Suppressing Tree."
"I've only refined two pieces of that thing so far."
The fiery red shadow sighed, "So that's how it is. I was mistaken."
"I thought he had just changed his body, but I didn't expect that he had used a rare treasure to deceive the Blood Realm Tree, and his own cultivation was not damaged at all."
"Okay, okay!"
"If there were such treasures back then, my disciples wouldn't have..."
The two of them fell silent at the same time and stopped talking.
Qingmang Territory, Lanyu City.
Chu Xuan led five out-of-body cultivators to this place and discovered the blood energy rising into the sky from a long distance away.
That was the breath of the Blood Moon Demon.
"Uncle Master, the other side has a Blood Moon Demon in the middle stage of Void Refinement. I think we should take our time..."
The out-of-body stage disciple beside him said in a deep voice.
Henry Chu nodded, indicating that what you said made sense, and then rushed forward alone.
In the blink of an eye, the figure disappeared.
The five Qingmang Sect disciples who had reached the state of out-of-body experience looked at each other, all with confused expressions.
Uncle Ling Xuan, everyone knows that you are only in the initial stage of Refining Void.
There is a blood moon monster in the middle stage of the Void Refinement Realm.
Don't rush over to give it to me!
Then they saw a loud explosion in the sky above Lanyu City.
Blood and cold air intertwined and fought.
But the cold is clearly at a disadvantage.
In a short while, the cold air was torn into pieces by the blood.
Their eighth uncle Ling Xuan fell into the distance like a kite with a broken string.
Groups of blood moon monsters swarmed forward.
The five disciples who had reached the state of out-of-body experience looked at each other in bewilderment.
"How about... let's go?"
"Eighth Uncle is really something. He's not that strong, yet he still insists on charging forward."
"Let's go quickly and report back."
They didn't stop, just turned and left.
Now that Lianxu has fallen, there is no need for them to attack Lanyu City.
The other side.
Chu Xuan watched the five of them leave from afar, and immediately stood up leisurely.
Roar, roar, roar!
Swarms of blood moon monsters swarmed in.
All I saw was the Netherworld Karma Fire exploding.
All the evil beasts were burned to ashes in an instant.
The Blood Moon Demon in the middle stage of the Void Refinement Realm rushed forward the furthest and naturally burned the fastest.
Along the way, the five disciples who had reached the state of out-of-body experience complained secretly a lot.
If you follow those seven Lianxu Daojuns out, you will definitely be able to achieve military merit.
Because those seven are all very powerful, at least they are in the middle stage of the Void Refinement Realm.
Zhong Pan and Dong Ren are the best among them, having reached the late stage of Lianxu.
But this Eighth Uncle is generally recognized as the weakest.
Of course, you will get nothing by following him.
Chu Xuan was also happy about this.
He had long planned to find a safe place to practice peacefully.
It's a good opportunity to help myself escape.
He quickened his pace and headed straight for the molten mountain.
Two days later, they settled down in the belly of a mountain in Rongshan.
Then arrange various formations.
Ensure that this temporary cave is safe and secure.
Only then did he close his eyes and begin to refine these spiritual objects.
…
Four years later.
Chu Xuan strode out of the temporary cave.
His spiritual power is extremely condensed and pure.
You can easily sense the five elements' spiritual energy with just your movements.
He stood there, yet seemed to have merged into the mountains, rivers, and mountains, into the world.
This is the power of the fifth-grade spiritual root.
If you complete these spiritual roots, you will definitely be able to go further in the future.
When striving to reach the Hedao realm, the basic success rate will increase by 30%.
In the future, even if they are at the same realm, those with five-day spiritual roots will be more powerful than those with five-earth spiritual roots.
"I've been in seclusion on Aquamarine Star for forty years, and four years should have passed in the Azure Mang Territory."
"But why is the bloody smell in the air so much stronger?"
Chu Xuan sniffed a few times and realized something was wrong.
After all, he had some superficial knowledge of the way of blood.
"What happened in the Molten Mountain and the Green Mang Region in the past four years?"
He frowned, expanded his spiritual sense, and explored in all directions.
After figuring out the direction, he headed straight for the Rongshan Hall.
However, after arriving at the Rongshan Hall, he felt it was even more absurd.
There are actually blood moon monsters wandering everywhere here.
There are also many Blood Moon Fallen Cultivators guarding the pass.
There are many members of the Rongshan tribe mixed in with the Blood Moon Fallen Cultivators.
They too have fallen.
His eyes flashed, and he silently captured a member of the Rongshan tribe.
After using the Nine Nether Soul Controlling Demonic Eyes to search the soul and seize the spirit, he immediately knew what had happened in the past four years.
However, the changes in these four years are indeed too astonishing.
"Qingmang Tianjun is actually the chess piece that Blood Moon Disaster Ancestor has planted in Qingmang Domain long ago?"
"Rong Jiao and Rong Tan were defeated by Qing Mang Tianjun. Rong Jiao ultimately decided to betray the Tian Dao Immortal Alliance. Rong Tan led a group of Rong Shan people loyal to the Immortal Alliance to escape death."
"The Immortal Celestial Lord was severely injured while suppressing the World-Destroying Tribulation Flame. Now, the three Celestial Lords have joined forces to cast a formation, temporarily trapping him in the Molten Fire Lake?"
"From the entire Qingmang Sect, only the fourth disciple Hu Ti, the fifth disciple Lin E, Ning Youwei, and others escaped from the mountain gate. Their whereabouts are unknown."
Henry Chu's mouth twitched when he saw this.
No way?
This was far from what he had imagined.
The most unexpected thing is Qingmang Tianjun.
This guy turned out to be a chess piece planted long ago by the Blood Moon Disaster Ancestor?
"Such a large sum of money must be aimed at the Immortal Heavenly Venerable."
"That must be the work of the Blood Moon Disaster Ancestor."
"After all, in the previous battle, the Immortal Celestial Lord annihilated billions of Blood Moon Demons in the entire Blood Moon Domain."
Chu Xuan seemed to be thinking about something.
"The Immortal Celestial Lord is trapped. The other Celestial Lords should be on their way to support him, right?"
"However, nothing has changed in four years. I'm afraid I've been blocked out."
only.
Why does it always feel a bit weird?
He instinctively felt as if a big hand was fiddling with the chessboard.
Now all we have to wait for is the big dragon to enter the net.
After thinking it over, Chu Xuan immediately left the Molten Mountain and approached the Qingmang Region.
If it is true as he guessed, the Molten Mountain is the place where the two Heavenly Venerable-level figures fought a great battle.
If you get too close, you might not even know how you died.
The process of leaving the molten mountain was very smooth.
He was not discovered by anyone.
However, he was stopped as soon as he set foot on the land of Qingmang Territory.
The person who stopped him was the sixth disciple of Qingmang Tianjun.
Tan Xiao.
However, Tan Xiao no longer has the elegant appearance of the past.
The blue robes were completely stained blood red.
There is a crescent moon printed between the eyebrows.
This is the sign of becoming a fallen cultivator of the Blood Moon.
The out-of-body cultivator who followed Tan Xiao had an even uglier face.
It is difficult for a cultivator in the out-of-body stage to resist the erosion of his mind by the blood moon seed.
They had already destroyed all the organs of the face.
The whole head became bald.
From a distance, it looks like a blood-red full moon.
"Eighth Junior Brother, my Eighth Junior Brother, I didn't expect you to be still alive."
"Four years have passed. Do you know how much I miss you?"
Tan Xiao laughed out loud.
But the smile is extremely creepy.
The corners of his mouth stretched from ear to ear.
"How about it, are you willing to join me in embracing the Blood Moon Avenue?"
"As long as you feel a little bit, you will sink into it like me."
"My current strength is comparable to that of the late stage of Refining Void!"
"This is the most powerful way in the world!"
Tan Xiao smiled even more happily.
Henry Chu just watched without saying a word.
Tan Xiao's smile gradually faded. "It seems you're not going to accept my toast and you'll have to drink the penalty."
"Okay, I've always disliked you, so today is a perfect opportunity for you to come and strengthen my Blood Moon Avenue!"
He waved his hand, and the blood-red moonlight suddenly surged, covering Chu Xuan's body.
Henry Chu just waved his hand casually.
The Netherworld Fire roared out.
In an instant, Tan Xiao and the rest of the people were burned to ashes.
All his spiritual power, blood, and the aura of the Blood Moon Avenue were completely devoured by the Netherworld Karma Fire.
"I can't get out anymore."
Chu Xuan arrived at the mountain gate of Qingmang Sect and found that the teleportation formation here could no longer be used.
Every time the Xutian Immortal Sect attacks a certain realm, it will immediately seal off the space and prevent teleportation.
After all, the space formation utilizes the power of the void.
And what the Xutian Immortal Sect understands best is the power of the void.
He looked down at Qingmang Sect.
He discovered that the entire Qingmang Sect was in chaos, with blood moon monsters and blood moon fallen cultivators everywhere.
There are no normal monks left.
Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a shocking flash of blood in the corner of the sky.
"The big fish is coming."
He immediately quickened his pace and headed for Fushan Lake.
The fight between the two Heavenly Master-level figures was so terrifying that even the aftermath of the battle was extremely terrifying.
The only thing he needs to do now is to protect himself.
Don't be caught in the crossfire.
Fushan Lake is an empty cave and has not been occupied by the fallen cultivators.
He easily re-entered the cave and immediately took out all the powerful defensive formations he had on him to reinforce the cave.
It was at this moment.
He heard a cold, terrifying voice.
Resounded throughout the Qingmang Domain.
"Immortal, immortal. I knew it was a trap, but I still came."
"Because you don't have any chance of escaping."
"In order to suppress the World-Destroying Tribulation Flame, you have used up 90% of your strength. Even the two Hedao formations can trap you."
"Your Tianzun from the Tiandao Immortal Alliance was also stopped outside."
"I know you want to kill me and recreate the battle where you boiled the sea and burned Yuanlong alive."
"But I am Blood Moon, not Abyss Dragon. I will not make the same mistake again."
"Immortal and indestructible, you have exterminated billions of descendants of my Blood Moon Territory. This hatred must be avenged!"
"Today is the day you fall!"
At the end, the voice was filled with anger.
Henry Chu suddenly felt dizzy.
He pulled out a mirror and looked inside.
Blood was oozing out of his eyes, ears, mouth and nose non-stop.
This is extremely abnormal.
With his body's recovery ability after reaching the seventy-first level of physical training, there was no way he couldn't stop the bleeding.
In most cases, the wound has just appeared and a drop of blood has just appeared when it has healed.
What's even more terrible is his thoughts.
He actually didn't want to heal his wounds at all, but instead wanted to let the blood flow.
"Blood Moon Avenue..."
"Blood Moon Disaster Ancestor only said a few words, and yet they were able to cause my blood to throb so violently..."
Chu Xuan's expression changed slightly.
At this moment, the virtual dragon seed in the dantian suddenly began to rotate at high speed.
The white jade turtle also jumped out and bleated around Chu Xuan.
It only took a short while.
The aura of Blood Moon Avenue was immediately expelled completely.
Henry Chu finally came to his senses and hurriedly tried to stop the bleeding.
However, he touched his nose and ears and found no blood at all.
Everything that happened just now seemed like a false illusion.
He suddenly reacted.
The most intuitive thing about Blood Moon Avenue is its control over the blood path.
But there is also a word "moon" in Blood Moon Avenue.
This month represents his mastery of the Way of Illusion.
"Hallucination...illusion..."
"But as long as the illusion is real enough, it can make people sink into it and die."
Chu Xuan was still frightened.
It is worthy of being a celestial being.
Every move and every word is enough to affect countless lives.
At this moment, a big tree suddenly appeared in the sky.
"Sixth Senior Sister, long time no see."
"What else do you have up your sleeve?"
"It should be the White Tiger Talisman."
"Take it out. If you don't take it out now, you will never have another chance."
The strange voice sneered.
boom!
A black light shot up into the sky.
The Immortal Heavenly Lord reveals his true form.
It looked like a woman who was over three meters tall.
His right arm was completely black, as if made of steel, surging with power.
There was also a pure white talisman more than a foot long lingering around him.
The moment it appeared, the surrounding area for tens of thousands of miles was filled with colorful light.
The roar of a tiger from ancient times immediately spread out.
It made everyone's ears buzz.
The monks at lower levels even had blood flowing from their ears, as if they were struck by lightning.
That was exactly one of the four parts of the Ancient Emperor's Seal.
White Tiger Talisman.
The moment the White Tiger Talisman appeared, King Cilongshu cast a greedy look at him.
The Blood Moon Disaster Ancestor felt fearful.
This thing is a great enemy and nemesis to them.
But it can also be degenerated with the help of secret methods and turned into a treasure that they can also activate.
For many years, the four masters of Xutian Immortal Sect have wanted to seize the Ancient Emperor Seal, but they have always returned empty-handed.
This time, the White Tiger Talisman is right in front of us!
Boom boom boom!
Countless explosions were heard in the sky.
In the blink of an eye, the three Heavenly Venerable-level creatures had exchanged thousands of moves.
Cultivators below the level of tribulation can only see clouds of three colors colliding continuously.
They fought each other as if they had life.
Creatures at the level of Heavenly Venerable can only fight in the void. Once they fight in the real world, it will inevitably cause the stars to collapse and the realm to be destroyed.
After all, what the Xutian Immortal Sect needs is not a lifeless wasteland.
While the Tianzun was fighting, a large number of Blood Moon Fallen Cultivators and Blood Moon Demons were also launching a general attack on the remaining strongholds.
In these strongholds, there are either human cultivators who are unwilling to submit to the Xutian Immortal Sect, or members of the Rongshan tribe who have escaped from the Rongshan area.
But they are all struggling.
It can be said that as long as something happens to the Immortal Lord, they will undoubtedly be defeated.
Chu Xuan looked at the clouds in the distance, lost in thought.
The dark cloud representing the Immortal Lord was clearly at a disadvantage.
Even with the blessing of the White Tiger Talisman, it is difficult to hide the decline.
After all, the Immortal Lord of Heaven expended a great deal of energy to suppress the world-destroying calamity flames.
It's not peak condition per se.
He smacked his lips.
My Lord, please use whatever means you have.
He didn't believe that the Immortal Lord came here just to be beaten.
At this time, the Immortal and Indestructible Heavenly Lord waved his hand, and suddenly another dragon roar was heard.
In an instant, a small green tower appeared in her palm.
"This lord set up this trap, so of course it's impossible that he only has the White Tiger Talisman as his trump card."
The Immortal Lord had a blank expression on his face, but his eyes were filled with murderous intent.
"Qinglong Tower!"
The Blood Moon Disaster Ancestor and the Kind Dragon Tree King were first shocked, and then overjoyed.
The Azure Dragon Pagoda has always been kept by Wuquezun.
Unexpectedly, in order to deal with them, the Immortal and the Dead actually borrowed the Azure Dragon Tower.
And Wuquezun was actually willing to lend it.
Doesn't this mean that today I can get two Taoist treasures in one go!
The Immortal and Indestructible Heavenly Lord alone obtained the two Taoist treasures, the White Tiger Talisman and the Azure Dragon Pagoda, to assist him, and immediately overwhelmed the King of the Cilong Tree and the Blood Moon Disaster Ancestor, making it difficult for them to breathe.
After all, these two Taoist treasures were originally used by the ancient emperor and are among the most powerful Taoist treasures in the world.
The King of Cilong Tree and the Blood Moon Disaster Ancestor were just passively defending and were not worried at all.
Until one moment...
There was a sudden violent explosion in the Rongshan Hall.
Terrible flames shot up into the sky.
But hidden in the red flames was a dark light!
"Dark Sun Avenue?"
The Immortal frowned.
Blood Moon Disaster Ancestor laughed heartily, "That's right! That's the embers of the Dark Sun. Just because you borrowed the Azure Dragon Tower, you won't allow me to bring in any outside help?"
Cilongshu King Zun also laughed, "As expected, Qingmang has already thrown the Dark Sun Embers into the World-Destroying Calamity Flame."
"Don't count on Rong. He has exhausted all his strength. He doesn't even have the power of the Hedao level anymore."
"The awakening of the dark sun begins today!"
Their voices boomed and resounded.
The Blood Moon Disaster Ancestor and the Cilong Tree King even deliberately amplified their voices so that everyone in the Qingmang Domain and the Rongshan Land could hear them clearly.
In this way, one can feel despair and surrender to emptiness more quickly.
Henry Chu raised his eyebrows.
I see.
The Immortal Lord set up a trap here in order to catch the big fish, the Blood Moon Ancestor of Disaster, and recreate the feat of boiling the sea and burning the Abyss Dragon Ancestor of Disaster.
But the Blood Moon Evil Ancestor deliberately joined the game and took advantage of the enemy's strategy, and actually wanted to use the World-Destroying Flame to awaken the Dark Sun Evil Ancestor!
The King of Cilong Tree stared at the White Tiger Talisman and the Azure Dragon Tower.
Both sides have their own calculations.
Without saying anything, Immortal Immortal immediately headed straight for the Rongshan Hall.
Rongtan also rushed out from one place, leading the remaining Rongshan monks and heading straight for the Rongshan Hall.
Monks at lower levels may not understand.
But almost all the Hedao monks know it.
We must never let the Dark Sun Disaster Ancestor wake up.
From the beginning, the Ancestor of the Dark Sun had always wanted to obtain the World-Destroying Calamity Flame and upgrade to the Dark Sun Avenue.
In this way, he will be able to surpass the Greedy Troublemaker and become the strongest among all the Troublemakers.
However, Dark Sun Disaster Ancestor's bold attempt did not succeed. Instead, he was severely injured by the Ancient Emperor and had to fall into a very long hibernation.
He didn't even get to participate in the final battle.
It was sent a long time ago.
If the Dark Sun Ancestor were to be resurrected with the help of the World-Destroying Calamity Flame, it would be a disaster for the Heavenly Dao Immortal Alliance.
After fusing with the World-Destroying Tribulation Flame, the Dark Sun Disaster Ancestor would need at least two Tribulation-Suppressing Heavenly Lords of the same level to be able to defeat him.
Almost invincible in one-on-one combat!
"Melting Carbon, you fool, you have been hiding for so long and finally jumped out!"
"Today I will clean up the mess!"
The molten coke suddenly rushed out and headed straight for the molten charcoal.
Rongtan was a newcomer to the Dao after all, and he was defeated by Rongjiao after barely holding on for dozens of rounds.
Everyone can see it clearly.
Rongtan was beaten so hard that he vomited blood.
Even the blood that was vomited was as hot and red as magma.
The two sides fought a fierce battle, and the distance between them grew further and further.
Qingmang Tianjun laughed loudly and stood at the entrance of Rongshan Hall.
Its green Dharma image stands tall and straight.
He shouted, "As long as I'm here, no one can step beyond!"
The Immortal Heavenly Lord was filled with murderous intent. He clenched his hands and a huge black claw descended from the sky, intending to kill the Green Mang Heavenly Lord.
The Blood Moon Disaster Ancestor stretched out his hand and pointed, and the light of the Blood Moon enveloped Qingmang Tianjun tightly.
There was a loud bang.
The Qingmang Dharma was shattered on the spot.
Qingmang Tianjun was knocked back more than ten feet and vomited blood repeatedly.
The entire right arm and half of the body have disappeared.
Bloody wounds and large pieces of internal organs were exposed.
If it weren't for the Blood Moon Disaster Ancestor's help in stopping him, with his strength, he would have been killed instantly by the Immortal and crushed into powder.
"How could a dignified Heavenly Lord of Crossing Tribulation attack a mere scoundrel at the level of He Dao?"
Blood Moon Disaster Ancestor sneered, "Among all the beings at the Tribulation Crossing level, you are the only one who is immortal and doesn't follow the rules. You always attack cultivators at lower levels."
Cilongshu Wangzun laughed strangely, "Sixth Senior Sister has been like this since she was a child. She just likes to bully others and the weak by taking advantage of her power."
"I was beaten by her a lot back then."
Blood Moon Disaster Ancestor, "That's perfect, now it's time to fight back."
Immortal and Immortal tried to break into the Rongshan Hall several times, but was stopped by the Blood Moon Disaster Ancestor and the Cilongshu King.
The first effort is strong, the second will weaken, and the third will be exhausted.
Her spiritual power had long been exhausted.
If you continue to activate the Azure Dragon Tower and White Tiger Talisman, the energy will be consumed even faster.
The Blood Moon Disaster Ancestor and the Kind Dragon Tree King both noticed her decline and launched a massive attack, almost blocking all routes of the Immortal.
At this moment, Qingmang Tianjun slaughtered another group of cultivators who tried to kill them in Rongshan Palace, and asked for credit from afar to Blood Moon Disaster Ancestor and Cilongshu King.
"Holy Ancestor! Tree Honored! I have fulfilled my mission!"
The Cilongshu King nodded with satisfaction, "Yes, you can serve under me in the future."
Qingmang Tianjun was even more excited, "Yes!"
It was at this moment.
His expression suddenly changed.
In an instant, he seemed like a different person.
The energy in his body suddenly exploded to the extreme.
Like a butterfly emerging from a cocoon.
A pitch-black blade light suddenly slashed out, heading straight for the heart of King Cilongshu.
This sudden blow was completely unexpected by everyone.
No one expected that Qingmang Tianjun would betray so thoroughly, killing so many cultivators loyal to the Tiandao Immortal Alliance, and at this critical moment, he would actually strike such a blow at Cilongshu Wangzun.
And the aura of this knife is too familiar.
It was the Void Slash that made the Immortal Heavenly Lord famous.
Squeak!
Cut it down with one knife.
The crown of the Cilong Tree King was cut off directly.
An unforgettable pain came.
The King of Cilong Tree let out a sharp scream and retreated thousands of feet.
At this time, a woman's calm voice came to Chu Xuan's ears.
"I'd like to lend you the Xuanwu Seal."
Henry Chu smacked his lips.
Can I say no?
Immortal and indestructible, "After the matter is accomplished, I will teach you the method to open the treasure house of the Black Tortoise Seal."
Chu Xuan's eyes lit up.
The confused white jade turtle flew out on the spot.
There were a few bleating sounds in the air.
It was obviously confused about its owner abandoning it.
At this moment, a third force suddenly emerged from the body of the Immortal Heavenly Lord.
Azure Dragon Tower, White Tiger Talisman, and Black Tortoise Seal!
With the blessing of the three Taoist treasures, her aura increased wildly.
The Blood Moon Disaster Ancestor and the Kind Dragon Tree King were both horrified.
"The Xuanwu Seal has reappeared?!"
Chu Xuan had clearly been killed by the Blood Realm Tree.
Although the Xuanwu Seal cannot be killed together, this object is naturally spiritual. If it is not recognized, even the Tribulation Heavenly Venerable will not be able to activate it.
Could it be that Immortal has gained the Xuanwu Seal's approval and become its new master?!
Thinking of this, the expressions of Blood Moon Disaster Ancestor and Cilongshu King became extremely ugly.
Before they set off, they specifically asked Yu Zun for divination.
The result was that the immortal almost perished, with only a drop of blood escaping.
They also obtained the Azure Dragon Tower and the White Tiger Talisman.
But now something beyond his Yu Zun divination appeared.
Blood Moon Disaster Ancestor transmitted his voice, "This is completely different from his Prison Lord's divination. How could this be?"
No matter it was the sudden attack from Qingmang Tianjun.
It was still the Xuanwu Seal that suddenly appeared.
It has all exceeded their expectations.
Cilongshu King Zun smiled bitterly, "I don't know either."
"However, as long as Anri can be successfully resurrected, everything will be worth it."
As soon as the words fell.
Suddenly, blazing red flames rose from inside the Rongshan Hall.
The flames gathered into a human face.
It was exactly the appearance of Rong Tianzun.
The Blood Moon Disaster Ancestor and the Kind Dragon Tree King were not surprised.
Because they had long known through divination that the remaining soul of Rong Tianzun was located in the Molten Fire Lake, and had been suppressing the world-destroying fire for hundreds of thousands of years.
If it weren't for the remaining soul of Rong Tianzun, the world-destroying fire would have erupted long ago, burning countless realms and stars.
But Rong Tianzun can do nothing now.
He has spent countless energy suppressing the world-destroying fire for so many years.
The time has come for this last remnant soul to die.
"Rong, what use can you make with your current strength?"
"You are now nothing more than a candle in the wind. Even if you sacrifice yourself, at best you can only dim the flames of the world-destroying catastrophe for a few days."
The Blood Moon Disaster Ancestor sneered.
Rong Tianzun also laughed.
What the other party said was the truth, without any falsehood.
His master Yu's attainments in the fields of numerology and divination are indeed top-notch in the world.
But even the best fortune tellers sometimes fail to predict the future.
For example, the Xuanwu Seal.
For example... Chu Xuan.
Immortality is just a snap of the fingers.
The white jade turtle suddenly opened its mouth and spurted out a stream of light.
The light flowed at an extremely fast speed.
Before the Blood Moon Disaster Ancestor and the Cilong Tree King could intercept it, it had already fallen into the body of Rong Tianzun.
Rong Tianzun's aura was rising steadily and rapidly at this moment.
After a few breaths, he was on par with the three Heavenly Lords present.
The expressions of Blood Moon Disaster Ancestor and Kind Dragon Tree King changed drastically.
The Xuanwu Seal actually has this ability?
How come they don't know.
"Don't panic, don't panic."
"Even so, the two of them are no match for us."
"Only one of you and I can hold back the Immortal, and the other can intercept Rong."
"As long as we continue, Dark Sun will surely be resurrected, and victory will surely be ours."
Cilongshu King said in a deep voice.
The Blood Moon Disaster Ancestor nodded.
He knew that the other party's judgment of the current situation was still correct.
It is indeed not the time to fail yet.
Rong Tianzun laughed heartily, "Who said I'm going to fight you to the death?"
"I've lived long enough to just live for a promise."
After saying this, he headed straight for the world-destroying flames without hesitation.
The next moment, he grasped the core of the world-destroying fire.
The vast spiritual power and powerful spirit in his body turned into fuel for the world-destroying fire at this moment.
boom!
The flames shot up into the sky and expanded, directly engulfing the King of the Cilong Tree and the Blood Moon Disaster Ancestor.
Then a terrible explosion suddenly occurred.
It clearly exploded in the void, but it directly affected the real world.
The Molten Mountain Hall and the Molten Fire Lake disappeared on the spot.
All that remained was a huge sinkhole.
It was like a huge beast had taken a big bite out of it.
The terrifying flames enveloped the sky of the Qingmang Region and the Molten Mountain Region.
However, there seems to be a huge shield protecting these two realms.
Therefore, the power of the world-destroying fire did not burn these two places.
Instead, he was guided by Rong Tianzun to burn the Blood Moon Disaster Ancestor and the Cilongshu King Zun.
Immortal immediately used his remaining strength to activate the Azure Dragon Tower and White Tiger Talisman, sealing off all escape spaces around him.
This time, such a big plan was set up just to kill a Heavenly Lord.
Now it's finally time to close the net.
…
Not everyone can see the battle in the void with their own eyes.
Even though Chu Xuan already had a deep understanding of the Five Elements, he could only indirectly feel the fluctuations of the void and thus infer the battle situation.
But now, the fluctuations in the void have subsided.
I guess the battle is over.
This thought has just arisen.
He found a figure appearing in front of him.
More than three meters tall, with a cold expression.
It is the Immortal Heavenly Lord.
He was holding a white jade turtle in his hand.
Immortal, "Thank you for the Xuanwu Seal."
The white jade turtle landed on the ground swiftly, hid behind Chu Xuan, and bleated a few times.
However, with its huge body, hiding behind Henry Chu is like an elephant hiding behind a pillar.
The ostrich buried its head in the sand.
It cannot be said that the effect is immediate, but at least it is of no help.
It serves no purpose other than self-deception.
Henry Chu asked tentatively, "Is the battle over?"
Immortal Nods, "The fallen king escapes with injuries."
"The blood moon was burned to ashes, almost dead."
Henry Chu nodded repeatedly.
Creatures at the level of Heavenly Venerable will not die so easily.
As long as the Blood Moon Avenue still exists, the Blood Moon Disaster Ancestor will never truly die.
Now it has been burned to ashes, only the form has disappeared.
But as long as the conditions are met, they can be resurrected.
This is the terrifying thing about the Lord of Tribulation.
However, the remains of the Blood Moon Disaster Ancestor are now in the hands of the Immortal Heavenly Lord.
Even if you want to be resurrected in the future, the conditions will be more stringent.
Neither of them spoke.
The atmosphere suddenly became awkward.
Immortal Immortal pointed at the white jade turtle and said, "I have left the method to open it on it."
"When you become one with the Tao, you will find out."
Henry Chu nodded, "Thank you, Lord Tianzun."
"I have some questions, could you please help me solve them?"
Immortal, "Speak."
Chu Xuan asked, "Qingmang Tianjun, did you really betray the Immortal Alliance?"
Immortal, "He did harbor betrayal in his heart, but he already had my clone inside him."
Henry Chu raised his eyebrows and immediately understood.
No wonder Qingmang Tianjun killed his own people without mercy after betraying him.
At the critical moment, he suddenly slashed at the King of Cilong Tree with a tricky blow.
It turns out that the Immortal had already ambushed here.
Chu Xuan asked again, "What about the two Heavenly Monarchs Rong Jiao and Rong Tan? Are they acting?"
Immortal nodded, "Exactly."
After saying that, he added, "It was very realistic."
Henry Chu, "One last question, how did Ling Xuan die?"
Immortal, "He was killed by Qing Mang. Ling Xuan discovered his deal with the Blood Moon Fallen Cultivator."
Chu Xuan nodded in understanding.
Then, the two looked at each other in silence again.
Immortal is not the kind of person who likes to speak actively.
The same is true for Chu Xuan.
Immortal Frowning frowned for a long time, and after a while he said, "Practice well."
After saying this, he disappeared.
…
High in the sky above Qingmang Domain.
The immortal is suspended here, with a very faint shadow beside him.
"Why would you use your own essence to protect a wisp of my soul?"
Rong Tianzun sighed softly.
Immortal's face was a little pale, but he still said calmly, "There are not many old people left alive now. I don't want to see you die."
Rong Tianzun chuckled and looked over the clouds to the ground.
"If it weren't for Henry Chu's unique identity, I'm afraid everything would be under the control of the Prison Master."
Immortal Nomad nodded, "His past, present, and future are all mysteries. Even Wuque can't predict them, so it's naturally impossible for Yu Zun to calculate them."
Rong Tianzun pondered, "So, all divinations related to Chu Xuan are either going in the wrong direction or being cut off?"
Immortality, "Exactly."
Rong Tianzun sighed with emotion, "Good boy, good boy."
"In the future, he will definitely have a place on the throne of the Heavenly Lord!"
"Can you find the core of the Dark Sun?"
Immortal suddenly asked.
Rong Tianzun shook his head, "It disappeared."
"The world-destroying flames exploded into countless flames, shattering into the void."
"The core of the Dark Sun should be inside one of the flames."
"Even if Anri is dead, he still has the instinct to seek benefits and avoid harm. He must have fled the area."
Immortal thought for a moment and said, "I'll go look for it."
Rong Tianzun nodded and said, "I will go with you. I have suppressed the World-Destroying Calamity Flame for a long time. I also fought against the Dark Sun Disaster Ancestor before. I remember their auras."
The two of them disappeared in a flash.
…
A few days later.
The main hall of Qingmang Sect.
Chu Xuan strode through the gate and into the hall.
Hu Ti, Lin E and Ning Youwei had already been waiting here.
Seeing Chu Xuan appear, everyone cast their eyes over.
Ning Youwei's eyes were red, and she didn't rush over to Chu Xuan immediately when she saw him.
Lin E smiled and said, "Junior Brother Ling, you are finally back."
After saying this, he sighed a little, "It's really sad that there are only a few of us left in such a huge Qingmang Sect."
Henry Chu, "Where are the others?"
Lin E said in a deep voice, "They all joined the Xutian Immortal Sect. Except for Zhong Pan and Dong Ren who were taken away by Shu Zun, the rest have been killed."
"If nothing unexpected happens, our Qingmang Sect will be taken over by the two Heavenly Monarchs of the Rongshan Clan."
"I heard that Jiao Tianjun of the Rongshan Clan was just acting and didn't really join the Xutian Immortal Sect."
Henry Chu glanced at Ning Youwei, who was in tears, and asked, "What about Master?"
They looked at each other and said nothing.
After a while, Hu Ti said, "He committed suicide."
Henry Chu nodded.
Not surprised by this result.
Qingmang Tianjun has become a sinner whether facing the Tiandao Immortal Alliance or the Xutian Immortal Sect.
There is no need to live anymore.
Suicide is actually the most courageous act.
Seeing Ning Youwei was about to cry, Hu Ti quickly comforted her, "Little Junior Sister, don't be sad. That old man is not a good person. You will be much better off without him."
Ning Youwei had been able to hold back her tears, but upon hearing these words, she burst into tears on the spot.
Chu Xuan and Lin E were speechless for a while.
Although Qingmang is indeed not a good thing, it is not as comforting as you.
"Ahem..." Lin E cleared his throat. "Although the Cilongshu King was defeated, he still left behind many fallen cultivators and evil beasts that are poisoning the Qingmang Region and the Molten Mountain."
"Our next task is still very difficult."
After receiving their tasks, they went straight to their respective places.
It was almost no difficulty for Chu Xuan to clear out these miscellaneous soldiers.
However, after he cleared out the fallen cultivators who had occupied three cities in succession, he arrived at the fourth city and suddenly noticed something strange.
The Netherworld Karma Fire in the body began to stir.
Seems to have noticed something.
Chu Xuan glanced at the city from afar, frowned slightly, and then...
Turn around and leave.
The risks are completely unknown, and the benefits are not guaranteed.
Then why bother going there?
Run away quickly.
Maybe this is the backup plan left here by the ancestor of disaster, Du Zun.
Chu Xuan immediately flew away.
However, there was a streak of light that was faster than him, flying towards him from the city!
Henry Chu frowned and looked back.
I immediately realized that the stream of light was filled with the aura of destruction.
Although it is only the size of a palm, it seems to burn the entire world to ashes.
Almost at that moment, he understood what it was.
The world-destroying fire!
Didn't they say that the world-destroying fire had been extinguished?
Although he did not see the great battle in the void with his own eyes.
However, he also learned from others that Rong Tianzun sacrificed himself to detonate the world-destroying fire, guiding it to burn the Blood Moon Ancestor and the Cilongshu King.
This is how the Blood Moon Evil Ancestor was burned to ashes.
King Cilongshu was also severely burned and fled.
After this battle, the world-destroying fire collapsed into countless flames and dissipated into the void.
Even if it is rekindled, it will take tens of thousands of years.
How come there is still fire left?
Thinking of this, Chu Xuan sped up even more.
When something is abnormal, there must be something wrong.
This thing probably sensed the innate spiritual fire in his body and came to take his life.
This world-destroying fire is domineering and ferocious, and always likes to devour other spiritual fires.
Whether it is acquired spiritual fire or innate spiritual fire, all are accepted.
Once you get close, you will become prey.
However, the speed of the light was even faster.
Chu Xuan flew for thousands of miles, but the distance between the two sides became closer and closer.
He let out a low cry and immediately took out various spiritual weapons from his Qiankun bag and threw them behind him.
These spiritual weapons were all given as gifts by hospitable monks.
It's not of high quality and has long been of no use.
Now, as long as we can stop that flow of light for a moment, it will have played a huge role.
only.
As soon as these spiritual weapons approached, they were melted into iron liquid and burned into ashes by the flowing light.
It's impossible to stop it at all.
Chu Xuan gritted his teeth and was about to use the Yin Yang technique.
Although this item is a mid-grade spiritual treasure, compared with one's own safety, the latter is obviously more important.
But at this moment, the speed of the light suddenly increased again.
Before Henry Chu could react, he had already crashed straight into his body.
It's strange.
The temperature of this fire is extremely high and can easily melt spiritual weapons.
However, when it crashed into Chu Xuan's body, it immediately became illusory and did not hurt his body at all.
Chu Xuan's body froze in place, motionless.
A dark and cold sun was reflected in his eyes!
Dark sun!
A cold and majestic voice also sounded in his mind.
"Lend me your body to help me be reborn."
"One day when I ascend to the summit of the Ancestors, I will erect a monument for you, and I will remember you for the rest of my life."
Henry Chu wanted to drive the voice away, but found that his hands and feet were completely controlled.
He could only watch helplessly as the power of the Dark Sun Ancestor permeated his limbs and bones.
He couldn't do anything.
"What a strong body."
"Perfected Void Refining, Five Heaven Grade Spiritual Roots, Seventy-first Level of Body Refining."
"You must be the pride of the human race."
"There are actually two innate spiritual fires in my Dantian. My feeling is indeed true."
"Hey, this is…"
The Dark Sun Disaster Ancestor transformed into a ray of black light, penetrated deep into Chu Xuan's Dantian, and suddenly discovered something unexpected.
roar!
The virtual dragon magic seed rotates at high speed.
A loud dragon roar suddenly sounded.
As if declaring sovereignty.
In an instant, Anri Huozu was shocked and stunned.
"The Void Dragon Dharma Seed! And the Void Dragon's True Meaning!"
"You...you are the one he likes..."
Anri Huozu was shocked and immediately retreated at a speed far exceeding that of before.
He actually wanted to leave Henry Chu's body.
At this time, the white jade turtle had jumped out and was bleating around Chu Xuan.
The fire that carried the Dark Sun's ancestor of disaster had just escaped from Chu Xuan's body.
The white jade turtle rushed forward in one step, opened its mouth wide, and swallowed it into its stomach with a roar.
Henry Chu fell to the ground and took a deep breath of fresh air.
At this moment, he truly regained control of his body.
"I didn't expect that this fire actually carries the remnant soul of the Dark Sun Disaster Ancestor."
"I actually encountered him."
"Is this good luck or bad luck?"
He was a little amused and helpless.
Blue Jade City.
The blood moon demon that was wreaking havoc here has been annihilated by Chu Xuan.
However, almost all the monks and mortals here died.
Only a few lucky ones escaped the disaster.
Only now do I cautiously walk out of every corner and celebrate my new life.
Chu Xuan randomly found a deserted place, sat down cross-legged, and stared at the white jade turtle.
"Where did you swallow that thing?"
The white jade turtle patted its belly and said, "Mee-mee-mee!"
Henry Chu, "I know I swallowed it, but can I still spit it out? Does it count as having been eaten by you?"
The white jade turtle nodded, stretched out its claws, and placed them in Henry Chu's palm.
In an instant, Chu Xuan heard a roar.
"Let me out!"
"I am the master of the Dark Sun Avenue! I am the Holy Ancestor of the Dark Sun Clan!"
"You have already been noticed by him, and you will become one of us in the future, so why bother doing this!"
"As long as you let me out, everything will be fine!"
"Let me out now!"
The ancestor of the Dark Sun was incompetent and furious for a long time before he finally calmed down.
Chu Xuan seemed to be thinking about something.
The Xuanwu Seal actually has the effect of a cage.
This is quite a surprise.
However, he was also somewhat surprised by the words of Anri Huozu.
Being noticed by "him"?
Become one of "us"?
He couldn't help but frown.
Becoming a member of the fallen cultivators and evil beasts, turning into that inhuman, infernal form, was far from what he wanted.
Besides, he possesses the Void Dragon Dharma Seed.
This is a huge temptation for a fallen cultivator.
Once you enter the Xutian Immortal Sect, you will probably be devoured without leaving even a bone.
Henry Chu was about to let go, but the white jade turtle held his hand tightly.
The next moment, he felt waves of cold power surging from the white jade turtle's body and penetrating into his body.
"This is..."
Chu Xuan couldn't help but open his eyes wide as he looked at the rapidly condensing magic seeds in his dantian.
This Dharma seed is like a dim and cold sun.
Isn't it the Dark Sun Dharma Seed!
Could it be that the white jade turtle is refining the aura of the Dark Sun Ancestor and feeding him back this kind of power?
Sure enough, the roar of Dark Sun Huozu came to his ears again.
"Damn it! What the hell is this place!"
"My power...my power!"
Anri Huozu was furious and extremely frightened.
He had been dead for countless years, and relied on the offerings of the Dark Sun Clan and the Dark Sun Sect to barely regain some consciousness and vitality.
Now it's about to be sucked away again.
Once he completely loses consciousness, he will have to sleep for who knows how many years.
The next great era is coming.
Nothingness will consume everything.
If he cannot get a share of the pie in this era, not to mention him, the Anri Saint, even the Anri clan will be thrown into the dust and become a small clan.
"Let me out! I'll give you anything!"
Henry Chu was too lazy to listen anymore and simply withdrew his hand.
Now my ears were immediately quiet.
"Brother Turtle, let's be good. If another troublemaker attacks me in the future, it will all depend on you."
Henry Chu patted the white jade turtle's head.
The white jade turtle nodded subconsciously at first, then immediately shook its head and bleated loudly.
It seemed as if he was saying that Anri Huozu was very weak, so he dared to absorb it.
If it were any other ancestor of disaster, they would be the Lord of Tribulation, and he would not dare to do that at all.
Henry Chu touched his head again, "You are amazing, you are powerful, you are the most powerful weapon spirit in the world! Don't be afraid!"
The white jade turtle immediately shrank back and curled its lips in a humane manner.
Chu Xuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
This guy is really getting smarter.
I'm afraid that silly look he had before was just an act.
…
Holy Dao Palace.
For the first time, Mixian did not sit on the throne, but stood with the chief priests of various sects.
However, he still stood in the middle.
And no one dares to go beyond it.
The chief priests of all major religious sects have arrived.
The Blood Moon Cult, which had been vacant for a long time, finally had a chief priest.
This person's name is Song Dengtian, and he is Zheng Ayue's disciple.
Not long ago, he accepted the gift from the Blood Moon Disaster Ancestor and successfully advanced to the He Dao.
This is exactly what makes the Xutian Immortal Sect's monks so terrifying.
As long as there are enough resources, they can produce Hedao monks continuously regardless of their qualifications.
Now, the atmosphere in the Holy Dao Palace is solemn and sad.
At the moment when the Blood Moon Disaster Ancestor fell, many strange phenomena appeared in the void.
In the realms controlled by the Xutian Immortal Sect, strange phenomena appeared one after another and were extremely terrifying.
Blood rained from the sky.
Dark clouds in the sky.
The weapons were broken.
The moonlight collapsed.
The evil beasts cried together.
Fall into the state of cultivation and be filled with sorrow.
The remaining hundreds of millions of blood moon monsters shrank rapidly.
They threw their heads against the ground and committed suicide one after another, just to follow their holy ancestor.
The whole world seemed to be filled with sadness.
The death of a being of the Heavenly Venerable level will cause such a strange phenomenon.
After a long time, Miexian finally spoke, "The Holy Ancestor has fallen, and the Great Dao has collapsed."
"We can't let this go."
"Pass on my order, all sects of the Xutian Immortal Sect, attack! Attack all realms controlled by the Tiandao Immortal Alliance!"
"kill!"
The chief priests responded solemnly, "Yes!"
Then they left one after another.
Soon, Miexian was the only one left in the Holy Dao Palace.
He bowed towards the throne of the leader and said, "What are your orders, Heavenly Lord? I would like to ask for your instructions."
The throne had been empty before.
Now there is a faint shadow.
This shadow is constantly changing.
Sometimes it turns into flowers, plants and trees, and sometimes it turns into birds and beasts.
Sometimes they become creatures of various races.
There is never a fixed shape.
There is no disrespect in destroying the immortal.
Because the person in front of him is the most mysterious among the four great saints of Xutian Immortal Sect.
He is the Lord of Prison.
At the beginning of the turbulent times, the ten disciples of the ancient emperor made a great vow: I will become the Buddha of Hell and bear all the sufferings of the world.
He vowed to resolve the sufferings of the world and was able to successfully ascend and overcome the tribulation.
His honorific title is "Wo Yu", and people in the world call him "Wo Yu Zun".
At the end of the turbulent times, I, Yu Zun, disappeared mysteriously.
When he reappeared, he had abandoned his body and soul, and turned into a creature at the end of the Shadow Avenue.
The honorific title was also changed to "Heyu", which means that other people are hell and all souls in the world are killed.
He is proficient in divination and numerology.
Mixian felt like he was naked in front of him and was extremely uncomfortable.
If this Prison Master had not come forward on his own initiative, he would definitely not have taken the initiative to meet him.
That's why he was curious.
Why would he, the Prison Master, come here on his own initiative?
What else do you want to tell him?
A hoarse voice came from the expanding and contracting shadows.
"There's something strange in the Qingmang Domain."
"Go check."
"I need a result."
Miexian raised his eyebrows, "Yes."
When he looked up again, the shadow had disappeared, as if it had never appeared.
Miexian sat on the throne, deep in thought.
As the leader of the Xutian Immortal Sect, he knew the details of the battle in Qingmang Domain better than anyone else.
Before setting out, the Holy Ancestor of Blood Moon and the King of Cilongshu must have gone to ask the Lord of Prison for divination.
But it ended in a miserable defeat.
The Blood Moon Saint even lost his life.
A small part of the crown of the King of the Cilong Trees was cut off.
The core of the Dark Sun Saint was also lost.
The world-destroying flames were completely extinguished and disintegrated.
All this also surprised him.
He, the Prison Master, is proficient in divination. Even when he is fortune-telling about creatures of the same level, he can see many future scenes.
There would never be such a devastating defeat.
Something must have happened here.
Thinking of this, he immediately called Huang Chong over.
"Master, what's going on? I was just about to leave." Huang Chong scratched his head and asked in confusion.
Miexian said in a deep voice, "Focus on attacking Qingmang Territory and find out the details of every Hedao, Lianxu, and Chuqiao cultivator in Qingmang Territory."
Huang Chong was stunned, but without asking why, he took the order and left.
Miexian tapped the armrest lightly, as if thinking about something.
The Holy Dao Palace fell into silence again.
…
A few days later.
Rongtan took over the Qingmang Sect.
He immediately set about expending great effort to build a passage at the junction of Qingmang Domain and Rongshan Domain.
In this way, the two places are completely connected and there are no longer any obstacles to travel.
He also actively promoted communication between the Rongshan tribe and the human race.
Gradually dissolve the Rongshan tribe's arrogant mentality.
It's a long process.
But as long as we are willing to do it, we can naturally live in harmony with humans.
After a while.
All the fallen beasts in the Qingmang Domain and the Rongshan Domain were completely wiped out.
With the situation so stable, Chu Xuan was also happy to have some free time.
He hid directly in Fushan Lake and started to improve his strength.
Once he succeeds in achieving the state of He Dao, he will no longer be able to hide and will appear in front of everyone as Chu Xuan.
The Xutianxian Church once again regarded him as a thorn in its side and wanted to get rid of him as soon as possible.
There will also be people in the Tiandao Immortal Alliance who will become hostile to him because of this.
After all, not everyone has great ambitions and will.
Once there is an additional person like him, the Hedao Tianjun, it means that other people's resources will become less.
Naturally, this will attract some vague hostility from some people.
Therefore, while we are in the dark, we must improve our strength as quickly as possible.
Spiritual power spells, spiritual consciousness secrets, body-refining martial arts...
There are also spiritual treasures, clones, etc.
All need to be improved.
However, before he could be happy for long, he received urgent news that Qingmang Territory was under a fierce attack.
A large number of fallen cultivators and evil beasts attacked the Qingmang Region madly, risking their lives.
"It seems like he's here to avenge the Blood Moon Ancestor."
"I can't stop it."
Chu Xuan shook his head, took out the magic treasure, and immediately joined the battle.
There's no harm in participating in such a battle.
Each of these fallen cultivators is extremely wealthy, and it is a good opportunity for them to recruit a few hospitable fallen cultivators of the Void Refining Stage to enrich their own pockets.
All the treasures in his body are now crying out for food.
…
One month later.
"Hu Ti is missing?"
Henry Chu was a little surprised when he heard the news.
Lin E sighed, "Yes, he's missing."
"Quite a few fallen cultivators from the Shadow Sect have infiltrated the Qingmang Territory."
"Many shadow demons have also been dispatched."
"You know, these fallen cultivators and evil beasts who practice shadow magic are almost natural assassins."
"They are extremely good at hiding, and darkness is their natural protective color."
"In order to assassinate a target, they can even hide in one place for thousands of years."
"Many of our Qingmang Sect's most gifted disciples who had reached the Out-of-Body Stage were also abducted."
"People are in a panic now."
"You should be careful too."
"Especially when dealing with those fallen cultivators and evil beasts on the battlefield, you have to be more careful behind the scenes."
Chu Xuan nodded in understanding.
"By the way, Junior Sister...you'd better take care of me too." Lin E suddenly whispered.
Henry Chu, "What happened to her?"
Lin E smiled bitterly, "She went to Bijin City alone to kill the shadow demon."
"Maybe he wants to atone for his master... for Qingmang Tianjun."
"Junior Sister Youwei is at the Refining Void stage, and is very likely to be targeted by the Shadow Fallen Cultivator and the Shadow Demon."
"I can't persuade you, so go and help me."
Henry Chu frowned slightly.
He actually didn't want to have anything to do with Ning Youwei.
However, he also accepted Ning Youwei's kindness.
The previous Yin-Yang Water and Fire Crystal is the best example.
He had long planned to give Ning Youwei some compensation when he was promoted to Hedao and left Qingmang Domain in the future.
"Well, I'll go."
Henry Chu nodded and headed straight for Bijin City.
Bijin City is located in the extreme west of Qingmang Territory.
These cities located on the edge of the Qingmang Domain were the first to bear the brunt of the attack and were the first to be attacked by the fallen cultivators and evil beasts.
…
Bijin City.
Ning Youwei stood on the two chopped-up corpses of the shadow demon.
Her delicate face was now filled with determination.
The white clothes were stained with many drops of blood.
She has killed dozens of such out-of-body shadow monsters.
She even killed a shadow demon in the Void Refinement Stage.
But even so, she still felt that guilt was always around her.
Although she didn't like her father always trying to stop her and Ling Xuan, she always had great respect for him.
Now she just found it ridiculous.
The person who hated Duoxiu the most had actually surrendered to Duoxiu a long time ago.
What else is real in this world?
A chill emerged from behind.
Ning Youwei said nothing, and the flying sword at her waist flew straight back.
With a "puff", the shadow demon was stabbed through the heart.
Shadow demons love to attack from behind.
Although she seldom participated in battles before, she has grown rapidly during these days of fighting in Bijin City.
Many times she would even deliberately expose her back to lure the shadow monsters into the trap.
This happens every time and it works every time.
She stretched out her hand and was about to take back the flying sword.
But at this moment.
Three chills locked onto her simultaneously.
Point directly to the center of the eyebrows, heart, and dantian respectively.
The biting cold even made her hair stand on end.
Without thinking too much, she immediately summoned a blue silk thread.
As soon as this streak of light appeared, it immediately expanded and enveloped her entire body.
This top-grade defensive magic treasure was a gift from her father.
It is also the highest grade thing she has.
when!
Three sounds of metal colliding were heard.
The blue silk looked weak, but at this moment it was as hard as steel, bouncing back all the enemy's attacks.
It was not until then that Ning Youwei could see the other person's appearance clearly.
The three of them were shrouded in a water-like shadow.
Wherever they go, shadows follow.
Their faces were completely obscured by shadows, making it impossible to discern their facial features.
The spiritual treasures activated by the three people are exactly the same.
They were two pitch-black daggers.
It's like shadows condensed.
"Middle stage of Refining Void, three."
Ning Youwei's heart sank.
No matter how strong she is, she can only deal with a fallen cultivator in the middle stage of the Void Refinement Realm.
She knew what was going on.
As a result, the other party suddenly sent three people in the middle stage of the Void Refinement Realm.
Senior Sister Hu Ti probably met her end at the hands of these three shadow-fallen cultivators in the middle stage of the Void Refinement Realm.
Ding dang dang!
Three cultivators of the Void Refining Realm stepped forward.
The shadow daggers kept coming.
Scars continued to appear on the surface of the blue silk.
After persisting for an incense stick of time, Ning Youwei's spiritual power was exhausted.
There was a click.
A wailing sound came from the blue silk thread, and it broke into several pieces.
"Well, dying here can be considered as atonement for my father's sins."
"Brother Xuan, it's a pity that you and I can no longer be Taoist companions."
"But before I die, I want to kill someone as a scapegoat."
Ning Youwei laughed bitterly, summoned her flying sword, and charged towards the closest fallen cultivator.
However, Ning Youwei's sword had not yet fallen.
The shadow-fallen cultivator in the middle stage of the Void Refinement Realm groaned and fell to the ground in disbelief.
His chest had been pierced by a black light!
The two shadowy fallen cultivators nearby changed their expressions slightly when they saw this, and one of them continued to rush towards Ning Youwei.
The other man held two daggers and looked towards the direction where the black light came from.
Ning Youwei also saw that person.
Her pretty face was full of surprise.
Senior Brother Xuan!
Chu Xuan nodded at her, and with a thought, two rays of black and white light broke through the air and pointed directly at a shadowy fallen cultivator.
"Hmph, such a slow attack..."
The shadowy cultivator sneered, and before he could finish his words, his eyes widened.
Because the Yin Yang Snatch, which was moving at a snail's pace just now, has now increased its speed by three or four times.
Before he could react, it pierced his head and dantian.
His soul died before he could escape and his magic seeds could be activated.
The suppression of the lower-level people by the Perfection of Refining Void is so powerful.
Ning Youwei used a sword to deflect the attack of the shadowy fallen cultivator in front of her, and looked at the fallen cultivator, her eyes full of disbelief.
When did Senior Brother Xuan become so powerful?
I've never seen that magical treasure before...
The remaining shadow, Duo Xiu, saw this and his expression changed drastically. He turned around and ran away without saying a word.
His body turned into a black shadow in the blink of an eye.
Flying quickly between all the shadows.
Its escape speed is astonishingly fast.
Chu Xuan was also surprised.
It's worthy of being called the shadow method.
This flying speed can at least rank among the top three in the Fallen Method.
Among the falling methods he knew now, only the flying speed of the Dark Mist Method could be compared with it.
But also beneath it.
However, he did not pursue.
Instead, he suddenly urged the Netherworld Fire to kill behind him.
As expected.
The Netherworld Karma Fire had just burned away.
A pitch-black dagger pierced through the void and pointed directly at his back.
boom!
The flames collided with the black dagger.
The latter actually let out a sharp whistle.
The Netherworld Karma Fire spread rapidly as if it had touched boiling oil.
In an instant, a complete human figure was burned out.
If it weren't for the heavy shadow surrounding this person, he would have been burned to ashes in an instant.
Ning Youwei was dumbfounded.
There is actually another Void-Refining Degenerate Cultivator hiding!
Judging from the thickness of this shadow, I'm afraid it's... the perfection of refining emptiness!
"Three people are in the middle stage of the Void Refinement Realm, and one is in the Perfect stage of the Void Refinement Realm. They really think highly of me."
Ning Youwei smiled bitterly.
"Senior Brother Xuan, let's retreat quickly. We are no match for this person who has reached the Perfection of Refining Void." She said hurriedly.
Henry Chu didn't speak.
Spiritual power gushed out of the body.
The Netherworld Karma Fire immediately exploded.
The fallen cultivator who had reached the perfect stage of the Void Refining Realm could not get out of the range of the flames at all and could only wail and curse in the flames.
"I didn't expect... I didn't expect you to be the strongest one."
Henry Chu said in a deep voice, "Tell me, why did you come to Qingmang Territory to arrest people?"
Shadow Fallen Cultivator cursed, "Dream on! You won't get a single word from me!"
Henry Chu nodded, grabbed his head with his big hand, and twisted it off.
Purple light burst out from his eyes, and he used the Nine Nether Soul Controlling Demonic Eyes.
In a short while, he had read through all the memories in this person's mind.
Although there are almost restrictions in Duo Xiu's mind.
But his Nine Nether Soul Controlling Demonic Eyes are specially designed to break restrictions!
Ning Youwei was shocked.
Why is Senior Brother Xuan so powerful?
And there is actually such a magical method?
This murderous look, with the power of life and death... is even more handsome!
"Return to the mountain gate quickly, Lin E and the others may be in danger." Chu Xuan said in a deep voice.
Ning Youwei was stunned, but immediately nodded and followed.
…
The mountain gate of Qingmang Sect.
It was late at night.
The disciples went back to their respective places.
Most people are practicing.
Only a few disciples patrolled everywhere.
However, having just experienced a great battle, people's minds were at peace, and the patrolling disciples were also relaxed.
Moreover, although there were more fallen cultivator evil beasts attacking, they were mostly located in cities on the edge of the Qingmang Domain.
Those missing out-of-body monks were all heading to the edge of the city to destroy it, where they fell into an ambush and were abducted.
The mountain gate of Qingmang Sect is located in the center of Qingmang Domain, making it almost impossible for it to be attacked by the fallen cultivator evil beast.
As a result, the disciples on patrol became even more careless.
No one knew that among the dark shadows illuminated by the lights, several shadowy fallen cultivators had already sneaked in.
"I heard that the chief priest of the Dark Locust Sect has arrived. Many people say that this person is very powerful and is considered the most difficult among all the chief priests of the Void Sky Fallen Sect."
"Indeed, this person is omnipresent and is particularly adept at infiltrating the rear. However, Tan Tianjun has already gone to Lanyu City to deal with him, and I expect there will be results soon."
"Tell me, our mountain gate will not be attacked by fallen cultivators as well, right? I've read in the storybooks before that people who patrol in the middle of the night are most likely to die."
"Come on, we are in the center of Qingmang Territory, how could a fallen cultivator sneak in?"
"That's true. Hey, let's go to that old noodle shop in Dongmen tomorrow. I'm craving it. Hey, why are you silent?"
Only two barely perceptible plops were heard in the darkness.
The two of them were completely lifeless.
Several shadows headed in different directions, with a very clear division of labor. It was obvious that they had made preparations before arriving at the mountain gate of Qingmang Sect.
However, when they arrived at the cave of Lin E and others, they found that it was not their target.
But an unexpected person.
Molten carbon.
"I'm sorry, the one who went to Lanyu City to confront Huang Chong was just a clone."
"I'll wait for you here."
Rongtan looked at these shadowy fallen cultivators and smiled slightly.
The fallen cultivators looked at each other.
The fallen cultivator in the lead suddenly threw out a black shadow.
The black shadow exploded and turned into a human figure, emitting the aura of harmony and intercepting the molten charcoal.
Everyone fled in different directions without hesitation.
Facing a Hedao Tianjun, the only chance of survival is to escape separately.
"Guard the mountain gate exit."
Rongtan shouted loudly, and the sound spread out, echoing throughout the gate of Qingmang Sect.
For a moment, the lights were bright.
A large number of monks rushed out and blocked the passage.
The formation was immediately activated, like an inverted giant bowl covering the entire mountain gate.
Fierce fighting breaks out immediately!
…
When Chu Xuan and Ning Youwei rushed back to the mountain gate.
The entire mountain gate was shrouded in battle.
Rongtan was entangled by the Hedao clone of the Shadow Priest. Although the other party could not kill Rongtan, it could prevent Rongtan from being distracted.
Those shadow fallen cultivators were extremely cunning, like loaches, constantly moving around in this small space, causing chaos in the neighborhood.
The Qingmang Domain is rarely attacked by fallen cultivators and evil beasts. The cultivators here have not experienced war for a long time and do not have much combat experience.
Although Lin E, Rong Jie and others have the strength of the middle stage of the Refinement Void Realm, they are still a little short of the ability to deal with these Shadow Sect's Refinement Void Fallen Cultivators who have grown up through fighting.
The fight was intense for a while.
However, all the shadow-fallen cultivators in the early and middle stages of the Void Refinement Realm were killed.
"Junior Brother Ling, Junior Sister, you've arrived just in time! There's only one fallen cultivator left, but he's at the level of a perfect cultivator."
"The other party fled towards your cave."
"The three of us plus Rong Jie will definitely kill him."
Lin E covered the wound on his waist with his hands, his eyes flashing with coldness.
