He was invincible from the beginning of the Heaven-Covering Era.

He looked at Zhou Qing and said, "Is the footage you showed us real?"

“It’s a 99% certainty that this will happen in the future,” Zhou Qing said calmly.

"The future? Can the future be foreseen?" Jiang Qi found it hard to believe. Even their sect leader of Yanxia Cave Heaven couldn't do such a thing, could he? Could there really be someone in this world who could foresee the future?

But at this moment, he recalled the scene he had just seen.

He clenched his fists in an instant.

"A single wrong thought led to a terrible mistake!" he lamented.

"So what are you going to do now?" Zhou Qing asked.

“Return to Yanxia Cave Heaven and tell the elders everything he did. He schemed against his fellow disciples. I believe the cave heaven will give him a just punishment.”

Zhou Qing shook his head and said, "So what? The Li family doesn't only have one cultivator. Even if he dies, the other Li family cultivators will still see you as enemies. One day, you will still have a conflict. It's either you die or I die."

The cultivation world is no benevolent place; it is no longer the ancient immortal era.

Since the Immortal Era, through the Chaotic Era, and up to the present day, the infighting and power struggles in the cultivation world have intensified, with endless infighting. After all, worldly resources are becoming increasingly scarce, so how can one be too upright if one wants to cultivate?

"Never mind, you can go," Zhou Qing said.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Qi and his wife quickly left.

Beside Zhou Qing, a figure descended from the void; it was none other than the Zhou family patriarch.

"Hehe, if you ask me, this kid is too stubborn, insisting on sticking to the rules. If it were me, I would definitely use every means to eliminate these potential dangers," the Zhou family patriarch chuckled.

"You know, in the past, in order to obtain resources from an extremely dangerous ruin, I didn't keep a single thing to myself and spread the news all over the world. In the end, a group of forces suffered heavy losses and countless people died, but it benefited me and allowed me to obtain the greatest opportunity."

"Cultivation requires learning to scheme! Those who are not good at scheming will eventually be schemed against and killed by others!"

Zhou Qing listened silently until the Zhou family patriarch finished speaking before he spoke: "In the town not far away, there is a person with a Taiyin body. Has the patriarch discovered this?"

The Zhou family patriarch looked astonished and said, "The Taiyin Body? Is it the legendary Taiyin Saint Emperor's physique? It hasn't appeared in millions of years!"

He looked towards the town dozens of miles away; his divine sense easily covered the entire distance.

"It really is!" He looked at a two- or three-year-old girl in the town, quite amazed.

He felt a bone-chilling coldness within the girl's body, as if it were freezing his very soul.

The Zhou family patriarch laughed heartily and said, "I never thought I would have such a thing, finding a top-tier physique just by wandering around outside. Such a coincidence in the world! This is the will of Heaven! This girl must be brought into my Zhou family!"

“But she seems to be the daughter of that couple from earlier. According to my calculations, she is of the Jiang family bloodline, and the blood of Emperor Hengyu flows in her veins,” Zhou Qing said.

"I don't care whose bloodline she is! So what if she's from the Jiang family? Who told them to leave such a physique outside and live such an ordinary life? Once she comes to my Zhou family, we will definitely do our best to nurture her. Even if she returns to the Jiang family in the future, so what? In the end, she will still remember the kindness of my Zhou family!" The Zhou family patriarch was very happy.

Zhou Qing remained silent; as long as the ancestor was happy, that was all that mattered.

Then, the Zhou family patriarch flew to that small town and went to a restaurant. As soon as he entered, he said to Old Man Jiang, "Young man, do you want to live a better life?"

Old Man Jiang looked astonished, completely taken aback by this form of address.

under.

The Zhou family patriarch repeated it again.

Old Man Jiang's mind was a bit confused. He didn't know where this strange person came from. Judging from his appearance, this person was only in his forties or fifties, and he didn't have a single white hair. Yet he called him "boy".

Afterwards, the Zhou family patriarch spoke several words with Old Man Jiang, but Old Man Jiang dared not make a decision. His son and daughter-in-law were not there, and he could not directly agree to the request to move.

After a while, Jiang Qi and his wife returned. As soon as they entered, they saw his elderly father arguing with another person.

"What? You want us to move away, leave Yanxia Cave Heaven, and go to your clan?" Jiang Qi felt that he had encountered too many strange things today. What kind of day was this? Was it not auspicious to travel?

“No, I have been appreciated by an elder of Yanxia Cave Heaven and have received many favors from him. How can I leave suddenly?” Jiang Qi shook his head repeatedly.

The Zhou family patriarch grew impatient and said, "You have to agree whether you like it or not!"

Having said that, he swept his sleeves around, clearing all the outsiders out of the restaurant. With another sweep, he took the entire restaurant into his sleeves.

"Do you think I, a great sage, need to reason with you?"

Then, the Zhou family patriarch tossed several dozen kilograms of ordinary pure source material to the secluded cultivation place of the sect leader of Yanxia Cave Heaven, and sent a secret message over, making the sect leader feel as if he was facing a great enemy. However, he was soon attracted by the several dozen kilograms of source material.

"Zhou Qing, I'm going back to the Northern Region first." The Zhou family patriarch sent a message to Zhou Qing, and then took a few steps, walking from the Southern Region to the Northern Region.

Zhou Qing was dumbfounded by what he saw.

"Forget it, I don't have many places to go in the Southern Region anyway. After I've visited these places, I can begin a long period of seclusion."

Chapter 114 Lord of the Fourteenth Level of Hell

A few days later, Zhou Qing arrived at Tai Xuan again.

Here he received one of the Nine Secrets and one of the most basic natural principles.

"A few years have passed, I wonder what Zhuofeng has become."

Zhou Qing flashed around and quickly arrived at the foot of Zhuofeng Peak.

"So lively? Is this still the desolate Zhuofeng Peak?" Zhou Qing asked in surprise.

At this time, Zhuofeng was still a small hill, but there were many complete buildings on it, and hundreds of disciples were practicing on Zhuofeng.

"You're back." A gentle voice sounded in his ear.

"Senior Li, your cultivation has become even more profound."

Zhou Qing looked up at the mountaintop and met Li Ruoyu's gaze; the trees and other trees could not obstruct their view.

Zhou Qing took to the air and instantly moved to the mountaintop.

"Zhuofeng is about to flourish! These disciples are all quite skilled," Zhou Qing remarked.

“They are all promising talents, but they are too impatient and can’t settle down to cultivate,” Li Ruoyu said.

Halfway up the mountain, there is a fighting arena, which was built by Li Ruoyu.

He discovered that these disciples were always restless and would cause trouble from time to time.

Since that's the case, he built a fighting arena and engraved some array patterns on it, which could confine all the power within the arena to prevent Zhuofeng from being harmed.

In Tai Xuan, every so often there is a grand competition between the main peaks, where the most outstanding talents vie for supremacy, to determine who is superior, who is stronger, and who is weaker, and each time a winner must be decided.

This arena is essentially a smaller competition within Zhuofeng, where disciples can compete against each other.

Zhou Qing and Li Ruoyu discussed the Dao on the mountaintop for half a day. During this time, Zhou Qing showed Li Ruoyu a higher level of the Dao's true meaning, the Dao of Nature, from which Li Ruoyu gained a great deal.

“The entire world is at my disposal; this great Dao is of great help to me,” Li Ruoyu said.

"This is the natural way I comprehended after my trip to Zhongzhou," Zhou Qing replied with a smile.

“Perhaps, I should also travel around and see this world for myself,” Li Ruoyu said in a daze.

"I wish Senior Li a speedy attainment of enlightenment." Zhou Qing smiled slightly.

Half an hour later, Zhou Qing left Tai Xuan. He did not meet with Hua Yunfei. With his cultivation level, he could easily see everyone on Zhuofeng Peak and saw that Hua Yunfei was in seclusion preparing to break through to the Four Extremes. Therefore, he did not force Hua Yunfei to come out.

He then arrived near an abandoned city, where an old locust tree grew beside the abandoned city gate.

Zhou Qing used a special secret technique, his hands glowing, and as he swept them across the ground near the old locust tree, several pieces of information appeared.

"The Lord of the Fourteenth Level of Hell will personally take action to find Fellow Daoist Zhou Qing's whereabouts and kill him."

"It is suspected that a higher-level being has given the order, which is said to be to use Fellow Daoist Zhou Qing's blood to announce the rebirth of the Assassin Dynasty to the world."

"If Fellow Daoist Zhou Qing sees this message, he must be prepared and not let his guard down."

Lines of faint writing appeared on the ground, then disappeared after a moment.

Zhou Qing gave a faint smile and said, "You want to find me? Perfect, I was just wondering where you were."

"You want to announce your birth with my blood? Fine, I'm happy to..."

"You want your World Stones? Well then, let's see who has the better methods."

In just half a month, Zhou Qing participated in several cultivator conferences, causing a huge sensation.

"My God, the half-step Grandmaster of the Free and Unfettered Sect has actually been defeated! In just one move, just one move, he was defeated!"

Some people exclaimed in shock, "Unbelievable! This achievement is too amazing! It surpasses all his peers in the Eastern Wilderness and leaves everyone behind!"

"What? Even a powerful rogue cultivator was defeated? And in just one move?"

The news of the shockwaves in the south spread rapidly, reaching every corner of the country, and restaurants and eateries across the land were buzzing with discussion.

Zhou Qing's two actions were like throwing a pebble into the calm surface of the Eastern Wilderness, instantly creating huge ripples.

He was already a very controversial figure, and this incident has only fueled the discussion, making him a topic of conversation among many cultivators, who have all offered their opinions on him.

"It is said that this Zhou family prodigy has not yet truly entered the realm of the major holy sect masters, but he can already defeat people at that level. He is truly amazing."

"That's not the most important thing at all. What we should pay attention to is how old he is. It's unbelievable. I feel like I'm seeing a great star rising."

Just as everyone was still marveling at this news, suddenly, another shocking piece of news came in.

"What? Another great battle has broken out? Thousands of miles have been reduced to scorched earth. Who has attacked Zhou Qing this time?"

At this moment, Zhou Qing stood on a wasteland, holding the Heavenly Emperor Sword, with drops of bright red blood dripping from the sword.

Opposite him, the Lord of the Fourteenth Level of Hell knelt on the ground, his hair disheveled, his head bowed, and both his arms were gone.

"What's wrong with you? Weren't you quite arrogant at first? Why are you so weak now?" Zhou Qing sneered.

Zhou Qing slowly walked over and, upon reaching the Lord of the Fourteenth Level of Hell, stretched out a large hand and pressed it down on his head.

"brush!"

Suddenly, the Lord of the Fourteenth Level of Hell raised his head and spat out a divine sword hidden in his mouth. At that moment, it struck Zhou Qing's heart like a bolt of lightning.

Zhou Qing's large hand changed direction in an instant, his palm containing countless Dao principles, and he gently patted it.

"click"

The divine sword made a sound like shattering glass, breaking into dozens or even hundreds of pieces.

"Why do you think you can fool me? Who gave you that confidence?" Zhou Qing said calmly.

Although he hasn't yet mastered the "Former Word Secret Technique" to its fullest extent, his spiritual perception has been honed to a very high level, making him virtually untouchable by any sneak attacks.

Zhou Qing reached out and pressed his hand down on the head of the Lord of the Fourteenth Level of Hell again. This time, he had no other means.

Countless divine powers surged out of his sea of ​​consciousness, probing the secrets within it.
