I use my supernatural powers to prove my immortality

Chapter 258 Bribing Qin with land to put out fire

As the ghost spring gradually expanded, everything around it began to be affected.

Whole tracts of trees began to die, as if all the life had been sucked out of them.

A large number of birds and beasts began to be greatly affected as a result. Those who instinctively sensed the danger were frightened and fled in all directions at the first moment.

Some birds and beasts that escaped a little slower were swept away by the dark mist that permeated from the dark spring, and their lives were taken away in an instant.

Not only the creatures in the world, but even the land around the Youquan was polluted and assimilated by it in the first place, thus turning it into a dead place.

It was precisely for this reason that a large number of residents of Floating Cloud Fairy City were frightened and fled in all directions immediately.

Swish swish!
However, near the Youquan, there are a large number of cultivators' escape lights flying back and forth, repeatedly investigating and surveying.

About half an hour later, formation flags dropped from the sky, successfully setting up a large formation barrier, completely sealing off the dark fog of the Nether Spring within the barrier.

but.

This is destined to be only a temporary solution and not a fundamental solution. As time goes by, the dark fog within the formation barrier will continue to accumulate.

Once it exceeds a certain limit, the accumulated dark mist may even burst its banks like a landslide lake, causing great disasters to the world and all living things.

Floating Cloud Mountain.

Tai Chi Hall.

Due to the appearance of a large number of Youquan, many senior officials of Baiyun Temple were summoned at the first opportunity, even Zhong Lixiao was among those summoned.

Inside the Taiji Hall, countless middle and high-level executives were extremely angry.

"Was it the mysterious 'drinker' who did this? Who is he? Is this crazy?"

"Even if he wants to prove his Dao, how can Heaven let him off when he wantonly destroys the order of yin and yang in the world? You have to know that even for immortal cultivators, luck and merit are important!"

"The location of the spring has been determined. It is not only near the Fuyun Fairy City in the heart of Baiyun Temple, but also near other fairy cities in the heart. According to the news from the base network, there are springs in Yan State, Yong State, and even near the heart of the Four Symbols Taoist Palace in the Ten Thousand Mountains."

"Could it be that the truth that the 'drinker' wants to prove is related to the Styx and the Nether Spring in the underworld? But even the Yellow Springs Demon Sect would not dare to be so extreme."

Heaven divides into yin and yang, and the way of life divides into good and evil.

The Huangquan Demon Sect is a demonic sect that intends to compete for the true meaning of the Nether Water. Many of the core methods passed down within the sect are based on the utilization of the Huangquan River water.

It can be turned into talismans, refined into magical weapons with secret methods, and even used to make elixirs through the water method of the Yellow Spring River. It has endless mysteries.

As for the most core and extensive use, it is to use the water of the Yellow Springs River to wash away all kinds of miscellaneous impurities in the exercises, and even wash away the memories and hostility in the souls of the living.

This also means that although the Huangquan Demon Sect's methods are extremely cruel, their skills are indeed very unique.

Refining the body, devouring souls, refining souls, and even sowing a large number of seeds of spiritual consciousness, and then using the water of the Yellow Spring River to wash away the impurities inside, thus obtaining a group of walking corpses with blank memories, and completely using them for their own use.

Or they can be refined into external incarnations, or they can be refined into corpse puppets, or even turned into "meat fields" that can continuously produce blood, flesh, and spiritual consciousness.
It is extremely cruel, but for breeders, the practice is indeed very fast.

From any perspective, the Huangquan Demon Sect is one of the most notorious demonic sects.

Even many famous and upright sects in the world have to admit that the core inheritance of the Huangquan Demon Sect is indeed unique and is one of the few "orthodox methods" in the world that can be cultivated all the way to the state of becoming a god.

Even if they continue to stigmatize these demonic techniques, they cannot completely cut off the inheritance of these demonic techniques.

but.

Even the Huangquan Demon Sect, which was known for its cruelty and evil, used various means to find the gap between the Yin and Yang worlds, find part of the Styx and Huangquan Road from it, and then draw water from the Huangquan River for their own use.

And such evil means as this one, which directly penetrates the Yin and Yang worlds and creates a large amount of water that could expand at any time, or even cause the water of the Styx to directly flood the world of the living.
Even a demon sect as evil as the Huangquan Demon Sect would think that its methods are too extreme!
Inside the Taiji Hall, everyone looked at each other and made all kinds of speculations. Some even linked the appearing springs to the "Kitchen God and Fire Mountains" that were scattered all over the world when the Kitchen God was preaching.

Back then, the Kitchen God was extremely generous. The Kitchen Fire Mountains scattered across the heaven and earth even formed a large Kitchen Fire Array together.

Drawing the thoughts of the people of the world as firewood, being grand and majestic, helped the Kitchen God share the pressure of many enemies who blocked his way during his process of attaining enlightenment.

It is reasonable for the "drinker" to draw on the successful experience of the Kitchen God in achieving enlightenment and use the Youquan as the center of the formation to share the obstruction from the enemies who block the way.

But through every word and action at the scene, one could still feel the confusion and fear of everyone present.

Those who are about to achieve enlightenment are too far away from them, and are far beyond the capabilities of their small golden elixirs.

This can be understood by referring to the Kitchen God's Taoist Fire.

There are so many stove and fire mountains in the world, and there is even an example of Zhong Lixiao who is suspected to have successfully refined the stove god's fire.

but.

All the hearth volcanoes are still scattered around the world, and there are still very few people who have the courage and qualifications to attack them.

Draw the water of the Styx to flood the world of the living. How dare anyone drink it?
Did he really think that he had infinite merits and could completely ignore the heavenly tribulation of enlightenment? !
but.

Whatever you feel, the threat of a Styx invasion is real.

If that devil succeeds, the world will not just be a place of devastation.

Even the thousands of years of foundation of Baiyun Temple would be destroyed.

Zhong Lixiao sat upright in his seat, and almost all the people present around him were Jindan cultivators from Baiyun Temple.

Zhong Lixiao knew some of them, but not most of them.

As for the number of people, it was much smaller than Zhong Lixiao had imagined, and all together they numbered less than a hundred.

You should know that Baiyun Temple is the largest sect in the State of Chu, ruling over hundreds of millions of miles of territory, and there are even masters who have reached the state of transformation within the sect.

You can imagine the value of Jindan Zhenren!

At this moment, streaks of light suddenly appeared in the Taiji Hall. It was actually several Nascent Soul ancestors who had arrived.

All the Jindan at the scene, including Zhong Lixiao, stood up and respectfully saluted the Yuanying ancestor who had come to the scene.

"Meet the Master of the Temple, Meet the Master of the Peak."

Fu Yunzi, the abbot of Baiyun Temple, flicked his whisk lightly, and all the monks present felt their bodies lighten at the same time, and they all stood up straight.

Fuyunzi: "In this critical moment, there is no need to stick to all kinds of empty formalities. To make a long story short, I and Senior Brother Zhengyangzi have already personally visited the Youquan closest to Fuyun Fairy City. As for the Youquan near other fairy cities under the jurisdiction of Baiyun Temple, other peak masters have also gone there in person to take charge."

Listening to the words of the temple master Fu Yunzi, the anxiety of the people present seemed to be partially dispelled.

The restless heart was also partially relieved.

Fu Yunzi said with a serious expression, "The situation may not be out of control yet, but it should not be underestimated. If we don't handle it well this time, and the Nether Spring Mist spreads, not only will all the lives in the world be destroyed, but also the spiritual lands, immortal mountains, and medicinal fields that we have worked so hard to manage will all be destroyed."

As soon as Fu Yunzi finished speaking, everyone at the scene became more chaotic again.

When the nest is overturned, all the eggs will be broken. Almost all those who can stand in the Taiji Hall now are the beneficiaries of the current order.

Each of them can be considered to have a wealthy family. Once the Youquan is leaked, everyone present may become bankrupt.

"Master of the Temple, Master of the Peak, no matter what, we must stop the Nether Spring from expanding further this time!"

"That's right. Every man has a share of responsibility for the fate of his country. We must stop the evil and perverse ways at all costs!"

“What can we do? Please tell us, Master.” “Well said!”

"."

Inside the Tai Chi Hall, cries for justice rang out one after another.

Although everyone understood what was going on, as the slogans became louder and louder, it seemed as if they were being deceived, and everyone truly transformed themselves into messengers of justice to help the world.

When Fu Yunzi, the abbot of Baiyun Temple, saw this, a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

Even if a large part of this slogan is for personal gain, one thing we have to admit is that the people's hearts can be used.

"Do you remember the Devil's Lamp that appeared not long ago?"

As soon as Fu Yunzi opened his mouth, everyone at the scene began to whisper to each other again.

How can I not remember this?
A magic cup holds all the gods in the world, and the "drinker" whose identity is mysterious and no one can guess the truth has officially entered the hearts of all living beings in the world.

But as time goes by, people increasingly discover that this "drinker", whose identity is mysterious and whose real existence is unknown, does things in an extremely sneaky way.

On one hand it gives people a sense of mystery, but on the other hand it seems quite petty.

You say he wants to prove his truth, but to this day, no one in the world knows what he wants to prove.

Compared with the upright and even extremely heroic Kitchen God, this so-called "drinker" gives people a sense of unbearableness.

but.

No matter how the world views this "drinker", one thing must be acknowledged, that is, his every move always touches the hearts of monks all over the world.

It feels like you look down on him but you can't do anything about him.

What's even more pitiful is that as time goes by, everyone gradually realizes that any action of the drinker always affects the hearts of monks all over the world.

It's like he's playing with everyone in the world in the palm of his hand!
Fuyunzi: "Just like the Devil's Lamp of Fallen Sin can hold all the Divine Masters in the world, these Nether Springs are also essentially used to hold all of our Nascent Souls, or even Golden Cores, in their 'Devil's Lamp."

As soon as Fu Yunzi finished speaking, many Jindans at the scene were in an uproar.

But then, the eyes of many monks present inevitably became a little hot.

Just like the moment the Sinful Demon Lamp came out, it directly contained all the gods in the world, there was certainly a "drinker" inside who had a sophisticated plan and used both kindness and force to force Venerable Floating Cloud Bai Tingyuan to take action.

But more importantly, the world behind the door opened by the Demonic Lamp of Sin is attractive enough to all the gods in the world.

Could it be that behind the deep spring, there is also a land of opportunity?
Upon seeing this, Fuyunzi immediately said, "Since the appearance of the Nether Spring outside Fuyun Fairy City, Junior Brother Zhengyangzi and I have used secret methods to investigate. Then we found that the Nether Spring is real. As long as we leave it alone and allow it to continue to expand, everything around Fuyun Fairy City may be swallowed up by the Nether Spring."

"But if we can find a way to freeze the Nether Spring, we can pass through the portal behind the Nether Spring and enter some treasured places in the underworld. These places are named 'Weiji Hanyuan' in some records in the temple."

Weiji means a towering mountain.

The reason why it is called "Weiji Hanyuan" is mainly because in the world of the living, the areas that can truly give birth to areas with some of the characteristics of the underworld are generally located in very cold and dark canyons.

Most of these small-scale underworlds are located in the gap between yin and yang, and occasionally the dark and cold water of the Styx spreads out.

Gradually, these areas were also called "Hanyuan".

Once you go deep into the cold abyss and truly enter the underworld, there is a high probability that you will appear on some high mountains in the underworld.

These high mountains are like a ladder to heaven that connects the yin and yang worlds!
Because most of these "Weiji Hanyuan" are located between the Yin and Yang worlds, the environment is extremely special and they can often produce some extremely rare spiritual materials.

Things like the soul-nourishing wood that is extremely beneficial for nourishing the soul, some ghost wood that is extremely useful for making banners, and some ghost grass that is extremely beneficial for spiritual consciousness are almost impossible to come by.

It seems that such areas may even produce some extremely rare minerals with underworld characteristics.

If these minerals could be used as raw materials to forge soul soldiers, one could even directly annihilate the opponent's soul during the battle.

As for some of the most special Weijihanyuan, they may even produce some reviving water and pure yang wood.

The reason for this is that solitary yang cannot produce life and solitary yin cannot grow.

It seems to be a place sandwiched between the yin and yang worlds, with both yin and yang, but due to some very special reasons, yin and yang lose balance again.

There appeared some purely yang things that were purer than those in the world of the living, and some extremely yin things that were purer than those in the world of the dead.

of course.

It seems that the probability of such a pure yang and yin thing appearing is very, very low.

But no matter what, there is one thing that everyone present at Baiyun Temple is sure of.

The large number of ghost springs that appeared this time might not be a completely bad thing for them.

If a cultivator wants to break through to a higher realm, it essentially means breaking through the three levels of essence, energy and spirit.

And breakthroughs in the spiritual level are often the most difficult.

If they could enter the Weiji Cold Abyss and collect some natural treasures that could nourish their spiritual consciousness, everyone present would show a look of desire.

Even though they knew that these steep and cold abysses were opened by "drinkers" who acted in an extremely sneaky manner, the people present still found it difficult to completely suppress the desire in their hearts.

Cultivation of immortality is essentially going against nature.

The further you advance in your cultivation, the more difficult it becomes.

This is destined to be a single-plank bridge that millions of people will cross together. Perhaps 99% of them will fall off the bridge and be smashed to pieces.

but.

Once you successfully cross the single-plank bridge, you will be welcomed into another broader world.

Not to mention the many Jindan cultivators present who were already hundreds of years old, even Zhong Lixiao and Yu Yunmu, who were not particularly old in terms of age, now had a hint of desire in their eyes.

Then, everyone present was suddenly enlightened and finally understood why the temple master called these appearing "dark springs" "magic cups" that contained all the Nascent Souls and Golden Elixirs.

Isn’t this the “Demon’s Lamp of Sin” specially designed for people at their level?

The danger posed by Youquan forced them to take action.

The existence of the cold abyss behind the Youquan Spring tempted them to voluntarily enter and explore it.

Even at the cost of my life, I would do it!

It's like a sugar-coated bullet. You know its danger, but you still can't resist the deadly temptation brought by its sugar coating.

Is this what the drinker has proven?
A cup of poisonous wine that is extremely mysterious, full of danger, but also contains endless temptations!

It is a temptation, but also a crisis.

It may lead to falling into the abyss, but it may also lead to soaring into the sky.

Maybe we can call it. Gambler?
