Two Worlds: The Demon Cultivator Mistakenly Enters the Lord's World

Chapter 142 The changing situation
Lingquan Station.

Yu Shu Dao Ren investigated carefully, but still couldn't find any trace of the Foundation Establishment cultivator from Chongfu Temple.

I have a feeling that this Foundation Establishment cultivator is lying in ambush near the camp, planning to ambush him when he lets his guard down and retake the Spirit Spring camp.

The most dangerous enemy is the one lurking in the shadows.

The danger level is even higher for Foundation Establishment cultivators who hide and are always ready to launch a sneak attack.

Without any choice,

Until he found the Foundation Establishment cultivator from Chongfu Temple, Daoist Yushu could only instruct his cultivators to be careful and constantly guard against enemy attacks.

Meanwhile, in the Bone Spire, some distance from the Spirit Spring's residence.

Xu Zhihe's cultivation was completely sealed, and he was hung on a pillar of the prison cell in the Bone Tower by white bone chains piercing his collarbone.

"You old bastard who ruined my family, you've finally fallen into my hands!"

Lin Yufei stood in front of Xu Zhihe, his eyes bloodshot, roaring madly.

With the enemy right before my eyes, I can finally take my revenge.

While Lin Yufei was acting mad, a Blood God standing next to him gently patted his shoulder.

Lin Yufei followed the gaze of the Blood God and saw the dazzling array of torture instruments in the prison cell.

soldering iron, tiger clamp, wooden donkey
Lin Yufei recognized some of the instruments of torture, but there were many more that he did not.

Blood God Child Dao Bing thoughtfully taught Lin Yufei how to use these "good things".

All that could be heard were piercing screams coming from the cell, accompanied by Lin Yufei's hearty laughter.

Having avenged his great grudge, Lin Yufei was in a very good mood.

After three days and three nights, when Lin Yufei finally emerged from the cell, Xu Zhihe, who was lying on the cell pillar, was covered in blood and gore, his body a blurry mess, barely clinging to life.

When Lin Yufei saw Lu Feng again, he looked exhausted, but most of the madness in his eyes had disappeared, leaving only calmness and rationality.

Having avenged his great enemy, Lin Yufei found his internal energy circulating more smoothly, and the removal of his obsession also boosted his cultivation.

In Lu Feng's opinion, once Lin Yufei has completed the Refining Aperture stage, and he provides him with some Foundation Establishment resources, Lin Yufei's Foundation Establishment will be a certainty.

"Thank you, Abbot, for allowing me to avenge my great grudge! I still need to go to Qingyun County to find Xu Zhihe's beastly son, Xu Feng. I will make that scoundrel pay the price for his actions!"

Lin Yufei bowed respectfully to Lu Feng. If Lu Feng hadn't stopped him, he would have knelt down and kowtowed to Lu Feng.

Lu Feng accepted Lin Yufei's greeting, pointed out a Foundation Establishment stage Blood God Child Soldier, and had it follow Lin Yufei, saying:

"Go, this Foundation Establishment stage Blood God Child Soldier will go with you. Let him take you there and back quickly! In case of any accidents!"

Lin Yufei nodded vigorously and led the Blood God Child Dao Soldier away from the Bone Spire.

Lin Yufei vowed to uproot the Xu family completely to eliminate any future troubles.

Especially Xu Feng, the son of Xu Zhihe and the mastermind behind it all.

He should pay the price and suffer the same punishment as his father, Xu Zhihe.

After Xue Shenzi Daobing left with Lin Yufei, Lu Feng entered the prison cell and glanced at the dying Xu Zhihe.

"Give it to me, give me a quick death!"

Xu Zhihe's eyes were unfocused, and even his Foundation Establishment stage consciousness was somewhat confused and scattered. He had lost the ability to speak and could only use his weak consciousness to convey his last thoughts to Lu Feng, who had entered the cell.

"He died. He was at least a Foundation Establishment cultivator. It would be such a waste for him to die like this!"

"Do you still want to live? If so, I can give you a chance to live!"

In the dark cell, Xu Zhihe couldn't see the expression on Lu Feng's face, but in his despair, he grasped at a sliver of hope to survive.

"Think, think!"

Xu Zhihe used the last bit of strength in his body to let out a cry for survival.

"Alright, alright, you're smart to know what's good for you!"

Lu Feng smiled and took out a Blood God Child Dao Soldier's talisman seed. The blood-red seed shimmered with a scarlet light, adding a touch of terror to the dark prison cell.

However, Xu Zhihe was unaware of all this. At this moment, he calmly accepted the talisman seed of the Blood God Child Dao Soldier bestowed upon him by Lu Feng.

In order to survive, Xu Zhihe did not dare to resist when the strange power of the talisman seed invaded his consciousness.

"Wow!"

As the talisman seed successfully merged into Xu Zhihe's Dao Foundation Space, his dying body was instantly infused with a surge of vitality.

His physical injuries were healing and recovering at a visible speed. After 45 minutes, he had recovered most of his injuries and climbed down from the torture rack with a pale face.

At this moment, his eyes had been replaced by a blood-red hue, making him a true Blood God Child.

And his name, and all his past, died at this moment.

From now on, he will be nothing more than a Blood God Child under Lu Feng's command, to be used at will.

"I don't like your face, get a different one! Otherwise, you might run into trouble if you see Lin Yufei again!"

Lu Feng also thoughtfully gave this Blood God Child Soldier a plain face, completely erasing any trace of his identity.

After refining Xu Zhihe, Lu Feng was delighted to obtain a Foundation Establishment stage Blood God Child Dao Soldier.

Xu Zhihe's prized black gourd also fell into Lu Feng's hands.

"This black gourd is called the Yin Sha Gourd. It is a spiritual artifact that I cultivated with all my resources. It has its own space inside, which stores the soul-refining sand from the rotting corpse that I painstakingly refined."

"If Master requires it, I will immediately impart to Master the method of refining the Yin Sha Gourd!"

While Lu Feng was observing the black gourd, Xu Zhihe, who had transformed into the Blood God Child, thoughtfully explained the process and even revealed the method for refining the black gourd.

Lu Feng listened and memorized the method of refining the Yin Sha Gourd. Following this method, he channeled his Foundation Establishment True Essence into the black gourd.

"Crack!"

Lu Feng poured his Foundation Establishment True Essence into the black gourd, flowing smoothly and instantly refining the various restrictions on the Yin Sha Gourd, thus gaining control of it.

Shaking the Yin Sha Gourd, billowing black smoke immediately emerged from it, which was the Corpse Soul Refining Sand that Xu Zhihe was refining.

As soon as the black smoke appeared, it swirled around Lu Feng according to his thoughts. The smoke had no fixed shape; it could transform into a magic orb, armor to protect himself, or it could transform into a ghost, a sword, a spear, or a halberd to attack enemies.

Unpredictable and versatile.

However, the Yin Sha Gourd's offensive power relies entirely on the strength of the Corpse Refining Soul Sand within, far less powerful than Su Wangyu's spirit sword, which specializes in offensive techniques. Furthermore, the Corpse Refining Soul Sand's inherently Yin nature means it can be instantly broken by any spiritual energy or spell it counters.

Therefore, in Lu Feng's opinion, this Yin Sha Gourd spiritual artifact was not particularly outstanding; it had only average effects and was not essential.

Fortunately, this Yin Sha gourd belongs to the Yin category, and Lu Feng's Bone Spire is filled with undead creatures.

Lu Feng tossed the Yin Sha Gourd back to the Blood God Child Dao Soldier and told him to go to the Elemental Pool and find one or two two-star undead to help him refine it.

Beside the element pool.

The Dragon Armor Abomination held the Yin Sha Gourd, channeling the death power from the elemental pool into it as if it were free.

Blood God Child Daoist stood to the side, forming hand seals and casting out talismans that were imprinted into the Yin Sha Gourd, activating the restrictions within the gourd to refine the power of death.

Inside the black gourd, the restrictive spiritual light flickered, and the rotten corpse soul-refining sand hummed and trembled, like tiny skulls, constantly strengthening under the joint refinement of the Dragon Armor Abomination and the Blood God Child Dao Soldier.

During the ritual, Blood God Child Dao Soldier also asked Dragon Armor Abomination to refine some of his expertise in plague poison mist into the Yin Sha Gourd.

The black, rotting corpse soul-refining sand, mixed with some green plague mist, turned dark green.

It has added some life-threatening toxins, making it even more potent.

Blood God Child Dao Soldier and Dragon Armor Abomination practiced the Yin Sha Gourd, the exact date of which is unknown.

Lu Feng returned to Xuan Yin Temple and listened to the news outside.

However, it was because he attacked Xu Zhihe that the conflict between Yuchan Temple and Chongfu Temple intensified.

Previously, the conflict between Yuchan Temple and Chongfu Temple had maintained some rationality.

Even if the Foundation Establishment monks of Chongfu Temple and the Foundation Establishment cultivators of Yuchan Temple had to fight each other to seize certain resource points, they would only go so far as to stop short of a fight.

If you can't win, just admit defeat and give up the resource points you're guarding.

The two sides went back and forth, fighting fiercely.

Those who died or were injured were all Qi Refining cultivators under the command of both companies.

None of the Foundation Establishment cultivators were harmed.

Today, however, a spiritual spring has caused Xu Zhihe, a Foundation Establishment cultivator from Chongfu Temple, to disappear without a trace, neither alive nor dead.

After the two sides went to war, the first Foundation Establishment cultivator to "die" was born.

Although Xu Zhihe was not a Foundation Establishment cultivator from Chongfu Temple, but someone they invited from Qingyun County, his "death" was enough to terrify the Foundation Establishment monks of Chongfu Temple.

Which Foundation Establishment cultivator in Hongze County isn't a pillar of various forces, holding a high position of power?

The saying goes, "When the rabbit dies, the fox grieves," and "Things of one's own kind grieve." Even the Foundation Establishment monks at Chongfu Temple feared that they themselves would be the next Foundation Establishment cultivator to die.

As a result, the eminent monks of Chongfu Temple began to travel in pairs, and when they encountered Foundation Establishment cultivators from Yuchan Temple, they dealt with them ruthlessly, no longer stopping short of a fight.

This single movement dealt a severe blow to the Foundation Establishment Daoist of Yuchan Temple, who had not yet reacted.

A Foundation Establishment Taoist named "Yufeng" from Yuchan Temple was besieged and brutally attacked by two Foundation Establishment monks from Chongfu Temple.

If it weren't for Master Yufeng's mastery of earth magic, his outstanding defensive capabilities, and his unparalleled earth-遁 (earth-escaping) technique as a trump card, he wouldn't have been seriously injured, but would have perished at the hands of the two eminent monks of Fucheng Temple.

Inside the Jade Cicada Temple.

Severely injured, with all four limbs shattered, the Taoist Yufeng lay on his sickbed like a mummy, his body wrapped in bandages, groaning and cursing the bald monks of Chongfu Temple.

"Senior brothers, you must stand up for me! Those bald monks at Chongfu Temple are too shameless! What happened to the agreement to stop short of a fight?"

“Senior Brother Yu Chan, I have treated Junior Brother Yu Feng’s injuries. I have reattached his severed limbs. However, the pure Buddhist power of the bald monk from Chongfu Temple remains in the wounds, interfering with Junior Brother Yu Feng’s recovery. This Buddhist power needs to be slowly removed before he can fully heal! At the current rate, it will take at least three months for him to fully recover!”

Yu Rong Daoist, the only female Foundation Establishment cultivator in Yu Chan Temple, reported Yu Feng Daoist's condition to Yu Chan Daoist after treating his injuries.

Upon hearing this, Daoist Yuchan frowned deeply, his face ashen.

The injury to Daoist Yufeng has put the Jade Cicada Temple in a very passive position.

The Foundation Establishment cultivators of Chongfu Temple abandoned their tacit agreement and killed each other ruthlessly. Will the Foundation Establishment cultivators of Yuchan Temple also have to fight as desperately as the Foundation Establishment monks of Chongfu Temple in the future?
There are seven Foundation Establishment cultivators in the Jade Cicada Temple. Apart from the abbot, Jade Cicada Daoist, who is in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, the other six are in the early stage of Foundation Establishment.

Chongfu Temple originally had eight Foundation Establishment cultivators, but two of them, Abbot Huineng and Monk Liusha, died in the battle with Xuanyin Temple.

There are now six Foundation Establishment monks remaining, two of whom are in the mid-Foundation Establishment stage.

7vs6
Lacking a cultivator at the mid-Foundation Establishment stage, Jade Cicada Temple was already at a disadvantage.

Now that Master Yufeng is unable to fight for three months, the fighting strength of Yuchan Temple is further reduced.

The balance of power has begun to tip in favor of Chongfu Temple.

Considering all this, Daoist Yuchan felt somewhat anxious. If the fighting continued, it could really cause Yuchan Temple to suffer heavy losses.

"Yushu, recount everything that happened that night again, making sure you don't miss anything!"

With a thousand thoughts swirling in his mind, Daoist Yuchan turned to look at Daoist Yushu and asked about the battle at the Spirit Spring outpost that night.

When asked again, Daoist Yushu shook his head dejectedly and said:
“Senior brother, I’ve already recounted what happened that night thirty-six times. When I arrived at the scene, Xu Zhihe, the Foundation Establishment cultivator invited by Chongfu Temple, had already disappeared without a trace. I searched the entire Lingquan camp, from top to bottom, and questioned all the Chongfu Temple cultivators there, but I didn’t find anything strange at all!”

"I suspect that the Foundation Establishment cultivator named Xu Zhihe didn't die at all. Instead, he stole something from Chongfu Temple, didn't dare to make a fuss, and fled overnight!"

"Otherwise, with my abilities alone, that Foundation Establishment cultivator named Xu Zhihe was desperately trying to escape. Could I have forcibly kept him here?"

Everyone is now blaming Yu Shu Dao Ren for the death of Foundation Establishment cultivator Xu Zhihe, but only Yu Shu Dao Ren himself knows how wronged he was.

He was unfairly burdened with a huge stigma.

In the current situation, even if he tries to explain seriously, he can't make it clear.

The Taoist priests of Yuchan Temple knew Yushu Taoist's background, his abilities, and that Yushu Taoist would not lie in the face of such a major issue.

But they were all in cahoots, and when word got out, the senior monks at Chongfu Temple didn't believe them at all.

Yu Chan Daoist also believed that Xu Zhihe's death had nothing to do with Yu Shu Daoist.

“But Xu Zhihe was not killed by our Jade Cicada Temple, nor could it have been done by Chongfu Temple. So who in Hongze County would have the motive and the ability to take action against Xu Zhihe, a Foundation Establishment cultivator, at this crucial juncture?”

The Jade Cicada Daoist voiced the question that had been on his mind. The other Foundation Establishment cultivators in the Jade Cicada Temple looked at each other, lost in thought.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck Yu Chan Dao Ren, as if he had guessed something, and his gaze involuntarily turned toward the Xuan Yin Temple.

He muttered to himself, "No, it can't be, it can't be them."
