Recruit demons to become heroes, hunt demons to become gods

Chapter 246: Unpredictable Fortune and Misfortune, Playing Chess

Hong Duxiu knew more about the taboos of the Fishman Island than most cultivators. Looking at Dou Eqing's smug expression, it was clear why the Yunqiong treasure ship was surrounded by the Fishmen.

Even though I was deceived by rumors, it’s not a wasted trip.

He thought about it and finally set his sights on Shi Li Yuqiu.

He had a very sharp eye. After some observation, he knew everything about Shi Li Yuqiu.

"If I were to encounter this female cultivator alone, I should be able to subdue her. Obviously, the man is the one who caused the trouble, and the fishmen will be able to capture him. Then this female cultivator will be mine. It is destined that we are together."

Hong Duxiu was thinking in his mind, and then he sent a message to Yu Li.

"Fellow Daoist, I will help your clan deal with that Void Refinement Realm cultivator. I won't take any of her treasures. All you need to do is hand her over to me. Once we've dealt with her, everything else will be easy for you. What do you think of my suggestion?"

Yu Li had been thinking about the meaning of the word "please" on the Yu Lixian statue, and had not yet figured out how to deal with Dou Eqing and the others.

After hearing Hong Duxiu's suggestion today, I feel that it might be a good idea to do as he said.

After all, Shi Liyuqiu, who was in the Refining Void Realm, seemed to be just a guard, and was not the one who triggered the Yuli Immortal Statue to issue orders.

Dealing with Shi Li Yuqiu is a thankless task, and seeking help from outsiders is a good option.

So, Hong Duxiu and Yu Li quickly reached an agreement.

Just as Dou Eqing was about to step forward to negotiate, hoping to use his status as the leader of the Hezong sect to make peace with Hong Duxiu, Yu Li's condensed spiritual power reached out to grab him.

There was a strong spiritual power fluctuation in the air, which seemed to be able to tear the space apart.

The huge palm emitted dark blue waves, as if it was condensed from sea water, which was chilling.

Dou Eqing felt this powerful sense of oppression, and his heart trembled. He immediately wanted to hide in the Ziwei Immortal Palace.

But in the next moment, he felt that the other party just wanted to capture him, not kill him, and there was no murderous intent in it.

Therefore, Dou Eqing planned to wait and see what happens next.

At the same time, Shi Li Yuqiu immediately took action to intercept the huge spiritual hand, but was interrupted by another powerful man in the Void Refinement Realm of the Fishman Clan and Hong Duxiu.

At this time, it was shown that Shi Li Yuqiu lacked combat experience and his response was somewhat distracted.

She first pushed Dou Eqing away from the encirclement of the spiritual power hand, flew away from the Yunqiong treasure ship, and prevented Yu Li from succeeding. Then she dodged the attacks of Hong Duxiu and the powerful refining masters of the fishmen.

With this choice, she forgot about the Yunqiong treasure ship.

The attacks of the two powerful masters in the Void Refinement Realm poured onto the Yunqiong Treasure Ship without any surprise.

The powerful energy fluctuations swept across the entire hull like a raging wave, causing the shields on the deck to flash with dazzling light and emit a deafening roar.

The fierce energy impact caused the air to distort, as if even time had stopped, and in an instant the Yunqiong treasure ship was destroyed and everyone on board died.

Although the powerful refining masters of the fishmen tribe finally tried to save the ship, the Yunqiong treasure ship was still destroyed in their attack.

Although the Merfolk occupied the Merfolk Island, they did not want to be hostile to the human race. They have always been very friendly and would not take the lives of any human monks.

Therefore, the powerful merman finally took action to save the Yunqiong treasure ship.

Except for Sun Jiuniang who used the life-saving talisman to protect herself and her two personal maids, the female cauldrons and furnaces provided by the Li family and the Xiang family all suffered.

The body of one of the two female tripod furnaces provided by the Li family was destroyed along with the Yunqiong treasure ship, and even her soul was severely damaged. The other one was also seriously injured.

The two female cultivators provided by the Xiang family were even more miserable. Their physical bodies were destroyed and only their souls escaped.

The two female cultivators of the Zhang family were relatively lucky.

Due to an unexpected situation, Zhang Zhaoyi was taken into the Ziwei Immortal Palace when her dual cultivation with Dou Eqing was about to end.

Another female tripod provided by the Zhang family also followed suit after finding out Zhang Zhaoyi's intention to recommend herself to Dou Eqing.

This girl's name is Zhang Chengui.

Zhang Chengui broke into the cabin of Dou Eqing and Zhang Zhaoyi as if she was catching them cheating.

This is also one of the reasons why Dou Eqing teleported Zhang Zhaoyi into the Ziwei Immortal Palace.

At that time, he thought that Sun Jiu Niang had broken in, and felt a little guilty, so he hurriedly hid Zhang Zhaoyi in the Ziwei Fairy Palace.

When Zhang Zhaoyi was taken into the Ziwei Immortal Palace, it was discovered that the person who came was not Sun Jiuniang.

Zhang Chungui threw herself directly into Dou Eqing's arms and explained her purpose.

However, the situation outside had changed. After Dou Eqing understood the other party's intention, he did not argue with the other party too much and simply took Zhang Chungui into the Ziwei Immortal Mansion.

Therefore, the two female cultivators of the Zhang family were able to escape disaster.

Fortunately, Widow Li and her three daughters had not yet returned to the Yunqiong treasure ship, otherwise their lives would be in danger.

It is said that Dou Eqing was sent out of Yu Li's spiritual hand by Shi Li Yuqiu, and was flying in the air thinking about countermeasures, when he suddenly remembered his identity as the leader of Hezong.

"Master Hong, I'm the Master of Hezong, a subsidiary faction of the Baishan Sect. We're family! Is there some misunderstanding?"

Dou Eqing was flying in the air and shouting.

His shout startled Yu Li first.

Yu Li was afraid that something unexpected might happen, so he acted more decisively and quickly.

Although Dou Eqing had reached the late stage of the Divine Transformation Realm, without the help of the Xuansheng Tianmo, and despite the powerful defense of the Xuanmo Holy Armor, he could only be controlled by Yu Li's powerful spiritual power.

In less than a minute, Dou Eqing fell into Yu Li's hands.

Dou Eqing's capture seemed to have angered Shi Li Yuqiu, and her fighting power was significantly improved.

There was a flash of anger in her eyes, her hands were clenched into fists, and her muscles were tense, as if every bone was preparing for the upcoming battle.

There was a tense atmosphere in the air, and Shi Liyuqiu's breathing became rapid and powerful, and every breath seemed to be accumulating strength.

Her movements became more agile, and every step was full of explosive power, as if the entire airspace was making way for her anger.

Yu Li didn't care about that. She picked up Dou Eqing with her jade hands and went into the sea.

She wanted to see why the Yu Lixian statue asked Dou Eqing to go back.

When Dou Eqing's figure disappeared in the sea, Shi Li Yuqiu became even more furious.

"Put him down!"

While dealing with the attacks from Hong Duxiu and the other man, she shouted at Yu Li.

Those who didn’t know would think that her Taoist partner was taken away by Yu Li.

Yu Li took Dou Eqing and sank into the sea, and then used water escape to return to the underground fairy palace of Fishman Island.

When they arrived here, Yu Li let him go and motioned for him to follow her in.

After walking through a damp underground passage, Dou Eqing staggered into the underground fairy palace, with a damp, salty smell in his throat.

His fingertips retracted as soon as they touched the rock wall - those dark green stones were actually covered with a layer of translucent gelatin, like solidified waves, or the stomach lining of some deep-sea monster.

The columns are clearly in the style of flying eaves and brackets, but if you look closely you will see that the column bodies are carved with spiral bone spurs, and strings of glowing coral bells are hung on the top, which make dull impact sounds when vibrated by water vapor.

The dome suddenly opened up and his breath caught in his throat.

Countless glazed tiles are suspended in the space thousands of feet high, and a faint blue halo is swimming between the tiles, as if the aurora was pulled out of the sea.

The merfolk melted the entire coral reef into beams and rafters, and curtains woven from silver threads hung down between the crimson branches. Each thread was dripping with water, but it condensed in mid-air and turned into pearls.

The bluestone slabs beneath his feet were soaked with a thin layer of water, reflecting the distorted outline of the pavilion. Suddenly, dark patterns swam by, startling him so much that he stumbled back - they were actually living scales embedded in the stone, emitting ripples of phosphorescent light as his footsteps moved.

“Watch out for the steps.”

Yu Li, who was leading the way, had a voice that sounded like bursting bubbles.

Dou Eqing looked down at the so-called steps, which turned out to be layers of giant clam shells, the shell flesh was still expanding and leaking out a sweet and fishy mucus.

Suddenly, I came across a half-broken stone bridge at the corner. The railings were clearly made of white marble, but the bridge arch was covered with wriggling tentacle-like vines. Each tentacle had a glass lamp at the tip, and the wick was actually glowing fish eggs.

What sent chills down his spine most were the window frames.

Between the diamond-shaped patterns were translucent gill-like organs, which suddenly swelled up and emitted a fishy mist as he passed by.

Dou Eqing wiped his face, and the back of his hand was stained with sticky liquid. He heard his rapid breathing echoing in the dome.

He didn't understand what kind of place the other party had brought him to.

He really wanted to ask Yu Li why she brought him here.

Just as countless doubts arose in his mind, Yu Li brought him to a huge statue.

The jade statue standing in the center of the coral altar is nine feet tall, with long curly hair like seaweed hanging down to the waist. Each hair is inlaid with tiny crystals, reflecting starlight as the light and shadow flow.

The eyes carved from deep-sea blue amber gazed at the sea, with two silver scales at the corners of the eyes, and there seemed to be waves surging as the eyes moved.

A diamond-shaped forehead ornament inlaid with mother-of-pearl is embedded between the willow-leaf eyebrows, and the slightly raised arc of the brows reveals a majesty that surpasses all others.

The long skirt with wide sleeves made of shark silk has a translucent texture. The rolled up sleeves freeze the moment of splashing waves. Hundreds of scales embroidered with silver threads gradually gather from the collarbone downwards and form a spiral pattern at the waist and abdomen.

The coral beads hanging down the hem of the skirt were hollowed out by a skilled craftsman. Whenever the moonlight penetrated the sea, the ground would sway with light spots in the shape of thousands of swimming fish.

The jade bottle held in the statue's right hand is tilted at a dangerous angle, and it seems that nectar will gush out at any time, but in fact, the three crystal beads hovering at the mouth of the bottle have been frozen for thousands of years.

The most exquisite feature is the ribbon wrapped around the statue's ankles. It uses a layered openwork technique. When the outer wave ripples and the inner water grass texture overlap at a specific angle, the illusion of live fish swimming emerges.

I don’t know how, but even though this place is underground, light from outside shines in through the space.

In the morning light, the entire jade statue is shrouded in a light golden mist. The moist water vapor condenses into pearls hanging on the tips of the drooping eyelashes, and the luster that is about to fade makes the stone sculpture look lively.

Dou Eqing was deeply amazed. He had never seen such a magical statue before.

The statue is lifelike and has the beauty of a real fairy, as if it will come alive in the next second.

Every part of it seems to be copied from a real body, carefully carved, and every detail reveals an unparalleled sense of artistry.

The statue's eyes seem to be able to penetrate people's hearts, and the corners of its mouth are slightly raised, with a mysterious smile.

Dou Eqing was asking herself who she was, but then she heard Yu Li's voice.

"Greetings, ancestor. I have brought the person back for you. Please give your instructions."

Yu Li knelt in front of the statue of Yu Li, clasped his hands together, touched his forehead lightly to the ground, and kowtowed respectfully.

The immortal statue suddenly emitted a faint light, and she seemed to be able to feel the majesty and wisdom of her ancestors.

Yu Li's voice was low and firm, and every word was filled with respect and loyalty to his ancestors.

"reward!"

The Yuli Immortal Statue once again condensed a word with its spiritual essence.

Yu Li seemed to have sensed something. When he looked up and saw the word "reward", his eyes suddenly lit up and he looked very happy.

If you knew, Yu Li came to Fishman Island away from his original tribe just for the opportunity to inherit the Yu Li legacy.

She never expected that not only would she become the master of Fishman Island, but she would also soon get the long-awaited opportunity.

It has been less than five thousand years since Yu Li came to Fishman Island.

In her opinion, the inheritance of the Yuli Immortal Statue is no less than that of the immortals.

She would be willing to wait ten thousand years for such an opportunity.

She was seen raising her snow-white neck high, with her eyebrows facing the Yuli Immortal Statue, expecting the Yuli Immortal Statue to give her initiation and inheritance.

In fact, before establishing the Fishman Island tribe, Yu Li had practiced in other places and left behind his own heritage.

Yu Li had once inherited Yu Li's legacy, and later learned of the existence of Fish-Man Island. He defected from his tribe and came to Fish-Man Island after going through untold hardships.

She had accepted Yuli's inheritance in the past in order to obtain the method of initiation, which is why she is acting like this now.

The inheritance did not disappoint Yu Li at the beginning.

A very pure energy, unique to the merman race, emanated from the statue of Yu Li. This energy was channeled into Yu Li's body from between her eyebrows, as if it could wash away all impurities and give her soul and body new life.

Her cultivation level immediately rose steadily, as if there was endless spiritual power surging in her body, and in the blink of an eye she broke through to the middle stage of the Void Refinement Realm.

As her realm improved, she felt an unprecedented power surging in her body. The spiritual power in her dantian was like a rushing river, continuously nourishing her meridians and bones, and her whole body was glowing with dazzling light.

After breaking through to the middle stage of the Void Refinement Realm, her cultivation level has not stopped improving.

Dou Eqing witnessed with his own eyes the cultivation level of a Void Refinement Realm cultivator improving at a speed visible to the naked eye. Yu Li's cultivation level rose rapidly like the rising sun, emitting endless energy fluctuations every moment.

The air was filled with rich spiritual energy, as if all the essence of heaven and earth was attracted by this power and gathered around the monk.

The surrounding scenery also became blurred because of this powerful aura, as if time had stopped at this moment.

Dou Eqing was shocked. Witnessing this extraordinary opportunity, he felt an unprecedented shock and awe.

I really hope I can take his place and get this opportunity for myself.

Seeing that Yu Li's cultivation was about to break through to the late stage of Lianxu, she was immersed in boundless joy, but she didn't know that the crisis was coming.

Dou Eqing vaguely felt that the cultivation energy bestowed upon Yu Li contained fluctuations of the soul.

He hesitated whether to remind Yu Li.

After all, although she had just captured him, she was very gentle and polite to him on the way to him, and it didn't seem like she wanted to murder him.

Unfortunately, when Dou Eqing wanted to give a reminder, he found that he could not control either his body or his mind, and had no way to remind Yu Li.

He felt that an invisible force was restraining him, as if he was trapped by some mysterious restriction, and it was difficult for him to gain even the slightest bit of freedom.

The air around him seemed to freeze, and time seemed to stand still. His heart was filled with helplessness and anxiety. He could only watch Yu Li walk towards danger step by step, but he was powerless to do anything.

It seems that the immortal statue of Yuli is very extraordinary. It suppressed Dou Eqing silently, and even Dou Eqing himself did not realize it until the moment.

It can be seen how powerful and strange the other party's methods are.

"Isn't this an attempt to take over her body? I hope if she succeeds, she won't target me anymore, right?"

Dou Eqing couldn't help but pray in his heart.

But things went against his wishes, and a black smoke suddenly appeared in front of Dou Eqing.

The black smoke quickly rushed into Dou Eqing's eyebrows, obviously wanting to take over Dou Eqing's body.

In the past, the cultivators who tried to possess Dou Eqing's body were unable to have any impact on him. It was like they were going in to die.

But this time the mysterious black smoke's mysterious possession was very different, allowing Dou Eqing to experience a real possession experience.

He immediately lost control of his body, his mind and soul seemed to be targeted by a natural enemy. All the muscles in his body were tense, cold sweat trickled down his forehead, and it seemed as if every nerve was screaming to warn him of the approaching danger.

His breathing became rapid, his heartbeat was as loud as a drum, his vision gradually blurred, and his consciousness was all concentrated in his sea of ​​​​consciousness.

A wisp of black smoke appeared in Dou Eqing's sea of ​​consciousness, and it kept changing.

Dou Eqing initially thought that the black shadow was a monster.

When the black smoke stopped changing, the figure of a graceful and elegant monk appeared.

"Who are you? Are you trying to take over my body?"

Dou Eqing asked the other party directly.

"No! I am you, and you are me. I am the King of Desire, and you are also the King of Desire. As the saying goes, time changes. You used to control the body, and now it's my turn..."

The other party seemed to be a scoundrel saying some irrelevant things.

Dou Eqing didn't see how Huan Yujun made his move, but he was aware that he couldn't control his body, but he had a sense of his body.

At this moment, his body produced a strange feeling, as if he was in the prelude of practicing dual cultivation with someone, and he had an urge to make his blood boil.

The strange physical sensations and Huanyujun's constant harassment made Dou Eqing's consciousness seem to be sinking.

After an unknown amount of time, Dou Eqing seemed to have had a dream.

When he regained consciousness, he discovered that he was practicing dual cultivation with Yu Li.

"Huanyujun, come out here, what's going on?"

Dou Eqing felt as if his body was about to explode, but he knew nothing about it. He was really afraid that his body was about to explode, so he hurriedly called out to Huan Yujun.

In fact, this was because of the explosive increase in cultivation brought about by practicing dual cultivation with Yu Li, and a part of the cultivation bestowed by the Yu Li Immortal Statue also entered Dou Eqing's body.

Moreover, his body was not under his control before, and now it suddenly took over, making it difficult for him to adapt.

Huan Yujun did want to possess Dou Eqing's body. Because of the special nature of his cultivation method, Huan Yujun's possession of a body was very different from that of ordinary cultivators.

His possession of another's body is similar to the possession of another's body through the exchange of consciousness in Zen meditation, which turns the person possessed into a carrier of faith, completely obeying the orders of others and without independent consciousness.

It’s a pity that Huanyujun didn’t expect Dou Eqing’s consciousness to jump out of the chess game.

Dou Eqing's original consciousness has become a bystander who can almost play chess, and Huan Yujun certainly cannot predict his existence.

Dou Eqing's original consciousness was originally in a dormant state, and he woke up at the critical moment when Huan Yujun was about to complete the consciousness exchange technique.

He intervened decisively.

Dou Eqing himself directly activated the consciousness of "Ye Qing" and used the method of devouring souls and taking over the body, and took over the body of Huanyujun in reverse.

This matter sounds simple, but it is actually very dangerous.

As soon as Dou Eqing's original consciousness completed activating "Ye Qing's" consciousness, he immediately fell into a dormant state.

During the process of swallowing consciousness and taking over another's body, Dou Eqing's body could only act according to instinct.

The reason why he and Yu Li were in dual cultivation had to do with Yu Li's resistance to the antagonist Yu Huan's sexual desire.

Their previous confrontation ended with their spirits and souls merging into one.

The spirits of the two people will eventually return to their original state, with yin and yang in a balanced unconscious state.

However, both of them are big bosses. Although the final result seems to be that they both died, they both have backup plans.

Yu Li’s backup plan is her inheritance of the immortal statue.

The follow-up move of Patriarch Yuhuan was to follow Yuli's follow-up move. When Yuli took over the body of his younger generation, he also took over the body of Dou Eqing.

And considering his own passive situation, he made some adjustments to Yu Li's backhand.

This action facilitated this unconscious dual cultivation.

All we can say is that the methods used by the ancestor Yuhuan were miraculous, which led to the bizarre incident of Dou Eqing.

However, man proposes, God disposes. In the end, the ancestor Yuhuan was swallowed up by "Ye Qing" and possessed by his body.

In fact, when Yu Li gradually gains control of Yu Li's physical body, he can still stop practicing dual cultivation with Dou Eqing.

But in order to celebrate his rebirth, and since dual cultivation with Dou Eqing was something that could not be changed, he simply enjoyed the carnal pleasure brought by this lovemaking.

She felt that she had spent her previous life cultivating Taoism and becoming an immortal, until the calamity brought upon her by the ancestor Yu Huan caused her to fail, and then she realized that her life had been too empty.

Especially when she discovered that Dou Eqing had miraculously avenged her and wiped out the ancestor Yuhuan, she felt that her fate with Dou Eqing was not bad.

Dou Eqing's call to Huan Yujun not only occurred in his sea of ​​consciousness, but was also heard by Yu Li as if it were a voice in his heart.

This is because their dual cultivation is in a very compatible state, almost reaching the level of telepathic communication.

"No need to call him, the lust demon has been destroyed by you."

Yu Li released Dou E's clear lips and spoke softly into his ear.

In fact, the wisp of black smoke that took over Dou Eqing's body was the ancestor of joy and desire.

Her words made Dou Eqing open his eyes suddenly.

Dou Eqing had only realized before that he was practicing dual cultivation with someone, but now that he saw it with his own eyes, it was as if the fact had been confirmed, and his body involuntarily stopped the previous dual cultivation movements.

"Don't stop. Don't you feel like you're about to explode? Transfer your cultivation to me quickly."

Yu Li first guided Dou Eqing to continue the previous dual cultivation actions, while reminding Dou Eqing at the same time.

Dou Eqing felt that the other party was right, and instinctively responded to Yu Li and started practicing dual cultivation with her again.

In his mind, he was sorting out the memories of Ancestor Yuhuan.

I just don’t know if it’s because Patriarch Yuhuan’s cultivation is too high compared to Dou Eqing, or if his memory is too complicated, but the other party’s memory gives him the feeling of just passing by and he can’t see anything clearly.

"Focus, or I'll get mad!"

Yu Li suddenly sucked away a large amount of Dou Eqing's cultivation, making him feel as if his body was being drained of its marrow.

Dou Eqing didn't feel like his body was about to explode, but he had an inexplicable feeling of discomfort.

He had no choice but to try his best to display his dual cultivation fighting method to satisfy the other party.

As a result, Dou Eqing performed beyond his normal level and suddenly used the fifth-level dual cultivation skill of Ancestor Yuhuan, the unique skill of Caibu Sanqian Dieyang.

Dieyang Sanqian had only been using it for half a round when Yuli jumped directly from the third level of bliss to the seventh level of bliss.

In this way, the dual cultivation of the two people once again triggered the means arranged in the immortal statue, and another stream of cultivation came from the immortal statue to the two people who were practicing dual cultivation.

Yu Li's cultivation level instantly broke through to the fusion realm, as if there was no bottleneck in his cultivation level.

Then a crack appeared on the chest of the Yu Lixian statue, and a powerful suction force erupted from the crack.

Then, Yuli separated from Dou Eqing's body and disappeared into the immortal statue in the blink of an eye.

Then, the statue seemed to come alive, and its vitality gradually revived. The outer layer of sculpture material fell off, revealing Yu Li's true appearance.

It turns out that the statue contains the remains of a fish.

It turns out that Yu Li has half the blood of the Sea Dragon Clan, but because her own royal blood of the Beauty Clan is very pure, there is some conflict between the two bloodlines in her body.

Therefore, when she transformed into a human during the Mahayana period, she actually separated the sea dragon bloodline and the demon body together.

She didn't think of the use of the remains at that time, but she carefully preserved them.

When she was about to pass the tribulation and ascend to heaven, he used his great magical powers to shape her remains into a totem statue of the merman tribe, to receive the power of the tribe's incense and faith.

It was also the power of faith brought by the worship of the fishermen over the past tens of thousands of years that made her remains magical, endowed with extremely strong vitality, and allowed the soul hiding in it to survive until now.

However, the vitality of the remains is different from that of living beings, which means that Yu Li's soul cannot directly use the remains as a body, but needs to take over Yu Li's body first.

Because the remains are rich in vitality, just like a treasure containing vitality, it only has vitality but not the vitality of living things.

Now that Yu Li has returned to this demon body, he immediately possesses the strength comparable to that of a Mahayana cultivator.

Moreover, from then on, he followed the path of cultivation of the Sea Dragon Clan, and when he reached a certain level of cultivation, he could transform into a real dragon.

If Dou Eqing had not helped her break through to the fusion realm, she would not have been able to return to this demon body.

After all, the gap between their cultivation levels was too great, and Yu Li had no way of merging Yu Li's human body with the demon body.

It’s just that misfortunes often follow blessings, and blessings often lead to misfortunes.

Just when Yu Li was happy that he was truly reborn and his human body and demon body were completely merged, the truth was revealed. After Yu Li's body was merged, only a strange bead was left.

This strange bead suddenly grew larger, instantly wrapping the entire Yuli inside the bead.

It turns out that Yu Li is a hidden pawn set by the deep-sea mermaid clan against Yu Li.

The bead then flew away into the air like a teleportation talisman, carrying Yuli, but Yuli was resisting.

"Dou Lang, save me!"

At this time, Yu Li could only regard Dou Eqing as his last straw and cried out to him.

Dou Eqing was stunned by this sudden change. He also wanted to save the other person, but he had no idea how to do it.

He thought quickly and exchanged all the fifth-level merits he could exchange for Tianyuan Liquid from the Infinite Merit Pearl.

At the moment before the bead broke through the space and teleported away, all the Tianyuan Liquid was thrown into the bead.

Yu Li's eyesight was so sharp that the appearance of Tianyuan Liquid made her feel that she still had a glimmer of hope.

She returned the favor by quickly pointing her finger, leaving a mark on Dou Eqing's forehead.

The brand between his eyebrows was only the size of a fingernail, but if a fishman saw this brand, it would be like seeing Yu Li himself.

This brand indicates that Dou Eqing can represent Yuli as the leader of the fishman tribe on Yuman Island, that is, the tribe leader appointed by Yuli.

But because they left in such a hurry, Yu Li was unable to explain the meaning of the brand to Dou Eqing.

Only three days have passed since Dou Eqing was captured by Yu Li, and the battle between the three Void-Refining cultivators on the island is still going on.

Combat and pressure are the most effective ways for monks to improve their combat capabilities, which was fully demonstrated in this war.

At the beginning, Shi Li Yuqiu was surrounded and could only defend himself, with almost no chance to fight back.

But after two days of fighting, she had already fought back and forth with her two opponents.

In addition, the powerful warriors of the fishmen tribe began to work without putting in much effort, and their attacks on Shi Li Yuqiu did not produce any substantial combat power.

Because, on the one hand, Dou Eqing, whom the fishmen wanted, had been captured by Yu Li; on the other hand, the fishmen island regarded the fight between Shi Li Yuqiu and Hong Duxiu as an internal dispute of the human race, and outsiders were not convenient to intervene.

The reason why the powerful fish-man refining master has not stopped yet is because he had an agreement with Hong Duxiu before.

Therefore, on the third day of the battle, Hong Duxiu not only felt a little tired, but also felt depressed.

He was depressed that Shi Li Yuqiu's fighting ability grew too fast, and depressed that the strong men of the merman tribe did not keep their promises.

Then, the sound of Yu Li being teleported away interrupted their battle.

First, the powerful refining cultivators of the merman tribe felt that something had happened in the merman tribe's underground palace. It was the violent movement caused by Yu Ligang's subconscious resistance after being wrapped in a magical bead.

Then, the spatial fluctuation caused by the bead teleporting Yu Li away exposed the location of the merman tribe's underground palace.

The exposure of the underground palace made Hong Duxiu think that it was the remains of immortals, so he sent a message to the powerful refining masters of the fish-men tribe to test it.

When he found out that it was just an underground palace of the fishmen, Hong Duxiu used the underground palace as a threat and asked the fishmen to cooperate with him to suppress Shi Li Yuqiu.

"If you want me to keep this secret, you must fulfill your previous promise to me!"

Hong Duxiu threatened the merfolk.

The powerful fish-man refining cultivator can no longer care about his threat because she cannot sense Yu Li's presence.

Moreover, the guards of the underground palace sent a message saying that something happened to the statue.

Therefore, the powerful refining masters of the fishmen tribe immediately left the battlefield and rushed to the underground palace in a rage.

"Where is the patriarch? What happened here?"

When the deputy chief of the fishmen tribe saw that only Dou Eqing was in the underground palace, he hurriedly asked him about the situation.

Dou Eqing roughly recounted what happened next.

The deputy chief of the merman tribe was shocked after hearing this.

Because of the mark on Dou Eqing's forehead, the deputy chief of the fishmen believed what Dou Eqing said.

"The location of the underground palace has been exposed. Please ask the clan leader to make a decision."

The deputy chief of the fishmen tribe was silent for a while, then made a gesture to ask for instructions and spoke to Dou Eqing.

"What?"

Dou Eqing didn't react at once.

"The ancestors have appointed you as the new mission leader of my fish-man tribe."

The deputy chief of the fishmen pointed at Dou Eqing's brow and explained.

"This, this...but I'm not from your fisherman tribe."

Dou Eqing subconsciously evaded the question.

"Don't refuse, Chief. I guarantee you'll be satisfied as the Chief of my Fishmen. My tribe may be average in strength, but we never lack what a Chief needs."

The deputy chief of the merman tribe suddenly cast a coquettish glance at Dou Eqing and said, "We'll talk about good things later, you know."

Dou Eqing didn't understand what she meant at first, but when he met her seductive glance, he understood it immediately.

Dou Eqing quickly changed the subject and asked about the other party's situation.

"What's the fairy's name?"

"I'm the deputy clan leader, Yu Youmei. The clan leader can call me Mei'er. Why don't you also tell me who you are, my dear?"

"Fairy Mei'er, my name is Dou Eqing..."

As soon as he said this, he felt something was wrong and quickly changed the subject.

"Is my companion all right?"

He inquired about the situation of the Lianxu battle.

"Under normal circumstances, the battle of the Void Refining War would last at least ten days to half a month. Only three days have passed, so it's still too early to tell the outcome."

She then described the battle situation outside in detail, as if Dou Eqing was really the leader of the merman tribe, and reported to him in detail.

"In that case, we are considered a family. Let's drive the enemy away first."

Dou Eqing remembered that the Yunqiong treasure ship was destroyed and there seemed to be casualties. It was necessary to end the war as soon as possible and rescue the injured monks on their side.

He was mainly concerned about the safety of Sun Jiuniang's three daughters.

Sun Jiuniang and the other two not only had a close relationship with him, but were also key personnel in the Eastern Ukrainian State.

"Yes!"

So, Dou Eqing was taken back to the surface of Fishman Island by the deputy chief of the Fishman tribe.

"Master Hong, we are one family. How about we just stop fighting?"

Dou Eqing shouted at Hong Duxiu.

He deliberately did not leave Yu Youmei's arms, obviously wanting to tell Hong Duxiu that the fishmen were on his side.

"What do you mean by this, Fellow Daoist Yu?"

Hong Duxiu asked Yu Youmei gloomily.

"Fellow Daoist Hong, I can only say that I am deeply sorry. Dou Lang is the clan leader appointed by our ancestors. We just had a small misunderstanding with him before. Now the misunderstanding is resolved."

Yu Youmei pointed at the mark between Dou Eqing's eyebrows and said to Hong Duxiu.

After she pointed, Hong Duxiu turned her gaze towards Dou Eqing and finally discovered that there was something different about Dou Eqing.

He clearly remembered that Dou Eqing's cultivation level was only at the late stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm, and it was the kind that had just recently broken through to the late stage.

However, Dou Eqing's current cultivation level is already infinitely close to the peak of the late stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm.

"Could it be that this kid has found some great opportunity in the underground palace of the fishmen? It seems that place is not simple. Should I go and give it a try?"

Hong Duxiu looked at Dou Eqing, feeling confused.

Now that the merman tribe has rebelled, it is no longer realistic to suppress Shi Li Yuqiu, which makes him turn his attention to the merman tribe's underground palace.

"Since you are so unkind to others, don't blame me for being unrighteous!"

Hong Duxiu finally decided to take revenge on the merman tribe and left without a word.

He was planning to build a mausoleum for the merman tribe so that he could take advantage of the situation.

In fact, with his current strength, he dares to enter the underground palace of the merman tribe alone.

But on the one hand, in order to take revenge on the Fish-Man Island, and on the other hand, just to be cautious, he decided to take a long-term view and use strategies to prepare for breaking into the underground palace of the Fish-Man tribe.

"Dou Lang, I noticed something was wrong with Master Hong's eyes when he left. He will definitely target my fishmen next. What should I do?"

Dou Eqing was just trying to escape from Yu Youmei's arms, but Yu Youmei held him even tighter as he spoke.

But in Shi Liyuqiu's opinion, his actions were just pretense.

Ren would never believe that in just a short moment, Yu Youmei went from being Dou Eqing's enemy to being his woman.

If Dou Eqing was stronger than Yu Youmei, it could be said that he had subdued the other party.

But the cultivation level is the opposite. Yu Youmei is one realm higher than Dou Eqing, so Dou Eqing is almost subdued by Yu Youmei.

Even Dou Eqing himself was not aware of Yu Youmei's attitude.

In fact, the real reason lies in the ancestral seal between Dou Eqing’s eyebrows.
