Chapter 884 Intrigue and Deception: The Pillar of State and Dharma King (Part 1)

Su Che did not have the same confidence as these others.

In fact, encountering these demonic sect members who had taken the Void Step was an absolute surprise.

They were all brought here by Yan Wugui.

It is unknown when, but rumors began to circulate that the ancient demon god Bai Ze had appeared in the Southern Wilderness.

This matter, concerning the whereabouts of the Book of Earth and the final outcome of the battle at the Earth Official's Immortal Mansion, naturally attracted the covetous eyes of various forces. Among them, the "talented individuals" from all walks of life within the Demonic Sect gathered in the Southern Wilderness like flies drawn to filth.

The Primordial Annihilation Saint Dao cultivated by the Demon God is a self-contained system, different from any other school. However, for the Demonic Sect, its "transcendent" status is not differentiated. As long as it can be "transformed" and seized, it is naturally a great fortune.

Moreover, everyone knows that this person has already been severely injured after being corrupted by the Demon Lord of Juntian Guangle. If they could observe the power channels of the Demon Lord of Juntian, it would be an immense benefit to the demonic cultivators.

Among the myriad heretical and degenerate lords, the Lord of Juntian is in charge of the "Praise" position. Since praise is required, all aspects must be taken care of. From this perspective, it is a reflection of the original demonic path.

The traces left behind by this demon lord are of immense benefit for comprehending the secret techniques of the demonic sect.

Xue Tongluo, Shi Cheng, Bao Bupei, and others brought their friends and acquaintances to the Southern Wilderness for this big deal.

However, ever since his fight with Su Che, Yan Wugui has regarded the Yang Chief of the Longevity Sect as a friend who could be won over. Upon hearing that Yang Sui was going up against the Wanling Sect, he naturally brought a group of friends to help him.

"The Wanling Sect's methods are very strange, seemingly related to beast transformation, and they are also very strong in controlling beasts. It won't be easy to make a move against them."

Xue Qingluo has fought countless battles outside the domain, and like Yan Wugui, he is a true practitioner of combat.

"Brother Yang, you've fought with Old Madam Bai, what insights have you gained?"

When Xue Tongluo asked, Su Che pondered for a moment before replying.

"I don't know about other things, but just in terms of sheer magical power, the Immortal of Longevity can completely transform the primordial energy of a region into his own. In terms of the sheer power of his supernatural abilities, even several Void Step cultivators are no match for him, and his escape speed has already surpassed the limits within the domain..."

Su Che was interrupted by Qi Jiao halfway through his sentence.

"But Senior Brother Yang, didn't that old lady Bai take a quarter of an hour to catch up with you?"

"I don't have that kind of ability. I just used a trick. Otherwise, I definitely wouldn't have lasted a quarter of an hour."

Su Che explained.

The reason he was able to escape from the clutches of the old lady of the Bai family was because Su Che first split himself into three bodies, and then placed the three bodies one by one on the escape route.

When the old lady of the Bai family started to chase, the three clones took turns running, creating the illusion that someone was still running ahead.

In reality, he used the Breath of Emptiness Escape Technique to hide, and when the last clone was caught up by the old lady of the Bai family, he released the clone technique and revealed his true body in another place.

If there's any trick to it, it's that the Lihe Pavilion's escape technique is amazing. They quickly burned down the Wanling Sect's mountain gate and ran away, which is how they managed to knock the old lady to the ground.

If it were just a matter of speed, Old Lady Bai would have caught us long ago.

"I never imagined that your sect's escape techniques were so sophisticated that they could actually deceive the Longevity Immortal."

Shi Cheng stroked his lion-like beard.

"However, this might indicate that the old woman's spiritual cultivation was somewhat lacking."

Yan Wugui calmly analyzed, "Perhaps we can start from this point."

"The Void Steps within the Myriad Spirits Sect are all fleshy creatures with only realms but no cultivation. Otherwise, they wouldn't have sent the old woman out to fight on her own. Why don't we learn from Brother Yang's superior skills and give them a few moves first?"

Xue Tongluo chuckled softly, her fingers stroking the bronze wine vessel beside her.

“Any Tom, Dick, or Harry dares to oppose our Holy Gate.”

"Gentlemen, let's go all the way."

Bao Bupei sneered: "Since you've come to the Southern Wilderness, why not show off your skills and go all the way?"

As he spoke, he gestured with his palm horizontally.

"Using the Wanling Sect as a sacrifice to the flag means our trip wasn't in vain."

These are all prominent figures from the Demonic Sect.

Needless to say, Xue Qingluo comes from the Shadow Blood Sect, a minor sect in the North, but he has already made a name for himself over the years.

Po Jun Gui Ji Yan Wu Gui is a well-known war maniac in the North.

Add to that Shi Cheng from the Hehuan Sect and Bao Bupei from the Earthly Demon Palace, and those four alone are enough to give the Wanling Sect a hard time, not to mention Su Che is also there to oversee things.

After a brief discussion, the group came up with a plan to deal with Old Lady Bai.

The group then went to make their own arrangements, and Su Che even returned to the Kingdom of Guzhu. Several Void Step cultivators hunting down a single Immortal Immortal—who would believe it if word got out? But that's exactly what they did.

Su Che naturally had to go back and make some arrangements.

In particular, there are several urgent messages that need to be sent out.

However, at the stronghold in Guzhu Kingdom, Su Che met someone he hadn't expected.

Or rather, a ghost.

Dressed in a brocade robe, with a ruddy complexion, he had an arrogant yet worldly-wise air about him.

"Envoy of Cangshui, how have you been?"

"You've really done a good job, kid. Wait, what did you call me?"

"The messenger of the Cangshui River."

Su Che was inexplicably happy to see the Yin-Yang Dharma King.

With this senior by my side, I feel completely at ease; if he's not around, I truly feel uneasy.

"What the hell have you seen inside the Earthly Official Immortal Palace?"

The Yin-Yang Dharma King frowned.

"Gouchen Palace, huh? By the way, what about the people I left here?"

“Ma Yi has come out of seclusion, but Wuyoutian called him back. If you ask me, this is like a blind man lighting a lamp – a complete waste of time. When has the Changsheng Sect ever been your business, Su?”

"But the Arctic Yuan Palace is a business within our organization."

Su Che chuckled: "I've seen the Wrathful Heaven."

"You just said, where did you see me?"

“Gouchen Palace, isn’t it you who sits beneath the God of Gouchen, the messenger of the Cangshui River?”

"That's bullshit, no, this isn't right."

The Yin-Yang Dharma King frowned.

"Didn't I explain this to you when we first met? Why is it acting strangely again?"

"Nonsense! By the time His Majesty ascends the throne and suppresses the Gouchen Palace, I will no longer be the Envoy of Cangshui. Why would I go to greet you?"

The Yin-Yang Dharma King slowly paced around.

“Young Su, I was so focused on welcoming you that I didn’t think things through. There’s something going on here.”

"What can happen?"

"I have a feeling that there might be something special about your earth book."

"Earth Book?"

“Exactly. The setup in the Earth Official Immortal Mansion doesn’t seem like a simple deduction at all. There might be other schemes behind it.”

"Whatever schemes they may have are none of our business, Bu Xu. There's the Daoist Master and that other one."

Su Che asked curiously, "What is your identity this time?"

"Take a look."

The Yin-Yang Dharma King tossed over a waist token, which Su Che caught and examined closely.

The inscription reads "Yuwen Jian, Grand Pillar of State, Grand Master of the Palace, Duke of Sui, of the Northern Dynasty".

"I recognize all the characters, but what about you now, sir?"

"I am Yuwen Jian."

The Yin-Yang Dharma King pointed to his own nose.

"I've managed to get back now, and I've even managed to get a job for that old devil from Beimang."

hiss.

Su Che felt a sudden ache in his teeth.
