Fantasy: Immortality Begins with Absorbing Demons

Chapter 700 Revenge (Part 7)

"Yue Qi... betrayed your sect, stole the Demon Tome, colluded with outsiders to kill two tower masters, do you know your crimes?" Zhen You's voice was flat and emotionless.

"You admit your guilt?" He abandoned his usual frivolousness and sneered, "The Demonic Codex is divided into the original and the copy. If the sect leader really wanted to cultivate disciples, why would he give them the copy to practice? Isn't he just using it as a tool to absorb cultivation power?"

Isn't this the style of the demonic sect? What is there to be attached to in such a sect?

"Yue Qi... you should know that you are my chosen successor," Zhen You said calmly. "The demonic scripture you cultivate is the true original. If you master it in the future, the entire Mingyu Sect will be yours alone." "Yes, it's true that I cultivate the true original," ** sneered, "but if you were truly sincere, why are you so wary? Even if it's the true original, what you passed on to me was only incomplete! Don't say you didn't do this!"

"..."

Upon hearing this, Zhen You was speechless for a moment.

She paused for a moment before continuing earnestly, "I admit that there were some problems with how this was done. But if you can change your mind and come back with me this time, I can guarantee that I will teach you the complete Demon Codex and give you control of everything in the Mingyu Sect."

"What?!!"

Before ** could react, the four people behind Zhen You exclaimed in surprise at the same time.

Wasn't the plan to come and kill someone? Why is the plot unfolding a bit off?

By coming to besiege **, they have already offended them severely.

There weren't many people in the Mingyu Sect who could rival him. If he agreed and really returned to take over the Mingyu Sect...

Wouldn't the four of them then become clowns?

It's likely that the first thing they'll do upon their return is eliminate those four.

"Oh?" Upon hearing this, he raised an eyelid, somewhat tempted.

He pondered for a moment, then slowly shook his head: "Sister Zhen, this is the last time I will call you that. You have indeed treated me well. But we are not on the same path, and my path... is not suitable for Mingyu Sect."

After leaving Mingyu Sect, he traveled for a long time, witnessing countless people and events, before finally choosing to return to his family.

The world may be vast and free, but it's hard to find a place to rest.

Although Huayang is small and has many constraints, it offers a place for people to realize their ambitions.

He had witnessed far too much death and bloodshed, far too many innocent people implicated, their families torn apart. He could save one person, ten people, a hundred people.

But it's impossible to save people every single moment.

Besides, he often can't see it.

If one wishes to realize their ambitions, one must reside in a high position in the government, for only then can one save the world with one's own strength.

Every household lives in peace and contentment.

People of all ages beamed with joy.

The path of the martial world... is not suitable for him.

"Fine, since you refuse to go back, you can't blame me for being ruthless..." Zhen You looked at the resolute expression on his face, seemingly understanding his choice, and sighed and shook her head.

"Do it!"

Behind her, the four cunning rabbits stood separately and quickly slapped their hands on the ground.

Buzz...

A faint buzzing sound came from deep underground. At the Grandmaster level, or even higher, it's difficult to determine life or death in a simple fight.

Unless the two have a blood feud and must fight to the death.

Otherwise, if either side has the intention to retreat and is in good condition and only wants to escape, it will be difficult to kill the other party.

Judging from the actions of the four cunning rabbits, it was clear that they wanted to capture everyone in one fell swoop and leave no future trouble.

"They're trying to set up a formation, attack together!" Hu Liuyun shouted, beckoning to the two beside him, "The remnants of the Mingyu Sect, who sabotaged the government army's granary, now dare to ambush and kill an official of the imperial court, they're doomed!"

The three of them rushed towards the four members of the Mingyu Sect in unison.

"Your opponent... is me...!" Zhen You raised her long staff, her long hair dancing behind her without wind.

call…...

The white staff grew larger upon contact with the wind, quickly extending to about ten meters. *Swoosh...*

A burst of light suddenly erupted from the tip of the long staff in her hand, and intricate patterns appeared one after another on the staff from top to bottom.

boom!

The long staff spun rapidly, suddenly creating gusts of wind, like a giant typhoon, repelling anything foreign.

Hu Liuyun and his two companions were being suppressed by one person and could not advance even an inch.

"Four Yin and Four Evils... Formation complete!"

Clusters of cloud-like array power, maintained by the combined strength of the four cunning rabbits, condensed into colorful runes in mid-air, slowly forming four walls that surrounded and trapped everyone inside.

“Alright, let’s continue… Han Yi… Today is your death day, and everyone else will die too!!” Zhang Qiong turned to look at Han Yi, her gaze hostile.

The colorful runes were consciously drawn, spinning rapidly around her, and streams of power flowed continuously into her body. This was the foundation of her self-confidence.

Not only her, but also Wang Yuanshan, Chen Yan and the others, under this power, their injuries recovered rapidly and their momentum rose steadily.

It seems like he's about to return to his peak form.

"Continue? Sure." Han Yi twisted his neck, a strange smile on his face, and looked at Zhang Qiong and the other two.

"Old Hu, it's up to you now."

"No problem." He smiled and raised a red military flag. "Ready... Boom!"

The military flag was lowered.

boom! ! !

Countless shells, like a tidal wave, formed a dark mass that blotted out the sky, bombarding the formation.

"Divine Cannon!!!!" Zhang Qiong suddenly screamed, "You madman, are you out of your mind? Do you want to die with us?!"

The Divine Cannon is a powerful weapon that the government army only uses against the demon army on the battlefield.

But today, unexpectedly, they were used against them by the **.

Of course, this was not what Zhang Qiong feared.

Although the Divine Cannon is powerful, it is still no match for people like them, whose strength is at least that of a Grandmaster.

Unless one is extremely unlucky and gets hit by dozens of shells at the same time, there is no need to worry about their life.

At most, he would be seriously injured, but not dead.

What's truly chilling is their ruthlessness!

The cannonballs fired... unlike formations, they didn't distinguish friend from foe...

Putting aside others... Hu Liuyun... but his father was also in the center of the shell blast radius...

So, they just bombed it like that?!

She doesn't even want her own father anymore?!

Click...

The walls of the formation shook violently under the bombardment of the cannons, but managed to withstand it.

But this was only the first wave; then came the second, the third…

It flows like a waterfall, continuous and uninterrupted.

Click...

The dense cracks continued to spread, and the colorful runes trembled violently, flowing and flashing with blinding light, trying their best to mend the cracks, but to no avail.

boom!

The entire formation exploded with a deafening roar, and the four members of the Mingyu Sect's Cunning Rabbit, who served as the formation's base, were instantly blasted dozens of meters away, their fate unknown.

After shattering the array's obstruction, the remaining shells continued to bombard the area.

Flames and swirling, turbulent currents intertwined and exploded, tearing deep trenches into the surrounding ground. A pungent odor and white smoke rose slowly.

Crackling.

The environment suddenly became quiet, with only the crackling sound of the flames burning against the damp branches.

Cough cough...

Zhang Qiong coughed violently a few times before spitting out the ashes from her mouth. Her body was covered in black ash as she slowly stood up from the deep pit.

She was unlucky; the moment the formation was destroyed, the power that had been poured into her body was also drawn out and scattered into the air.

In that brief moment of distraction, he was hit by several shells, crashed hard into the ground, and exploded.

The materials inside these shells are not just simple gunpowder.

There are various corrosive materials specifically designed to counter true internal energy, capable of easily breaking through a Grandmaster's outer protective layer. Fortunately, she had already condensed a wisp of malevolent energy, which helped to dissipate much of the external impact.

Even so, she suffered internal injuries on the spot and was in poor condition.

The surrounding area was a mess, and people were getting up one after another from the wrecked ground, covered in black ash.

Cough cough cough...

The sounds of coughing and spitting continued, and soon the group regrouped, split into opposing camps, and confronted each other again.

Needless to say, Zhang Qiong, Wang Yuanshan, and Chen Yan were all in low spirits and poor condition.

On the other side of Mingyu Sect, the situation was even more tragic. Sect Leader Zhen You was alright, with her long flowing hair and snow-white skin, and seemed to be doing well.

The main reason was the four tower masters she brought.

The four of them were the first to bear the brunt of the strongest wave of artillery fire. Even though they could share the impact, the force on each individual was still terrifying. In addition, the formation was forcibly broken, causing backlash within their bodies.

Therefore, it is understandable that the four people are still in a coma.

As for Han Yi, his overall condition is clearly better.

Han Yi himself is naturally strong in terms of physical strength. After being weakened by the waves of bullets from the array, he only suffered minor injuries.

He, his father, and two helpers had already discussed the plan and made targeted preparations. Apart from being a bit disheveled, they were not seriously injured.

"You want me dead?" Han Yi stepped forward, looked at Zhang Qiong, and chuckled, "But it seems the King of Hell won't take me..."

“I…” Zhang Qiong’s eyes darted around, her mind racing.

At the same time, Wang Yuanshan and Chen Yan turned their gazes and exchanged glances.

"Let's go together!" Zhang Qiong suddenly screamed and retreated rapidly.

The three fled quickly in different directions and from different angles.

The plan has failed, and this is a foregone conclusion.

The Mingyumen reinforcements were almost completely wiped out, and Zhen You alone was not enough to reverse the decline.

The three of them had previously expended a great deal of effort to besiege Han Yi, but their efforts were unsuccessful.

Now, after being bombarded, he has lost almost all of his strength and is in extremely poor condition.

Han Yi, however, recovered his bloodline power and gained another **.

Their prosperity is my decline.

It was clearly wishful thinking for the three of them to successfully surround and kill Han Yi.

Zhen You, the sect leader of Mingyu Sect, also took to the air at this moment, like a white bird, her sleeves billowing, and glided rapidly towards the distant mountains and forests.

The situation was clear, and the plan had failed.

Survival is the key.

"Chase them! The granary is on fire, they are the murderers, don't let anyone get away!" Hu Liuyun shouted in a deep voice, leaped up, and chased after Zhen You.

Accompanying him were the god of war, Shuli, and a squad of elite soldiers who rushed in from the side woods.

Wang Yuanshan and Chen Yan were also pursued by the great monk Huiwu and ** respectively.

"Palace Master, please wait. I wish to discuss life with you."

Zhang Qiong glanced at him and was almost scared out of her wits.

She had already escaped several hundred meters away, but not far behind her, Han Yi was gradually increasing the distance and striding closer.

"Flowing Clouds!" Zhang Qiong gritted her teeth, her hand moving with lightning speed as she slapped several spots on her chest.

Swish!

She jolted, accelerated again, and her vision rushed backward, leaving only a fleeting afterimage.

"one two three!"

Hearing the countdown, Zhang Qiong turned around in confusion.

"what!!"

She suddenly screamed.

A tree over ten meters long instantly traversed a distance of a hundred meters, heading straight for her.

boom!

The air currents whistled sharply, and two visible white turbulent streams appeared at the front of the tree trunk. Such power, if it were to hit, would likely crush it into mincemeat instantly. *Sizzle...*

Zhang Qiong stomped her right leg on the ground, tilted her body, and instantly changed direction, rushing towards the left front.

She had only gone about ten meters when a sharp, explosive sound of air bursting out behind her.

boom!

This time, what came crashing down was an equally enormous boulder.

Zhang Qiong had no choice but to dodge again.

Bang bang bang! ! !

One after another, heavy objects—thick tree trunks, wrecked carriages, stone tables missing a leg—slammed down upon him with a sharp whistling sound, tearing through the air.

Each heavy object contains immense power and shockwaves.

It's terrifying.

Forced Zhang Qiong to slow down and change direction to dodge the attack. In her current state, she simply dared not take it head-on.

He was already injured and in poor condition, and he had just used up the little energy he had left to move faster.

If you were to take the hit head-on, it would be fine if you could block it.

There was no stopping them; the banquet was about to begin on the spot.

Even so, she had to slow down every time she dodged and changed direction.

Once they slowed down, the distance between them and Han Yi quickly closed.

By the time she realized this and tried to speed away again, it was too late.

"I didn't expect that before I even paid a visit to the Palace of Ten Thousand Flowers... the Palace Master would come to my door in person... Is my charm really that great?"

Han Yi stood atop a giant rock, a smile on his face, looking at Zhang Qiong and blocking her path. The tentacles formed from black energy slowly retracted into his body.

Without the suppression of the dust and smoke array, he unleashed the full power of his spiritual bloodline. With immense strength and the black energy of his spiritual seed, he continuously picked up surrounding items and threw them at Zhang Qiong, forcing her to slow down.

There's no way around it; in terms of speed alone, he really can't beat Zhang Qiong.

Fortunately, the clumsy method worked, and he eventually caught up with him.

"..." Zhang Qiong gasped for breath, staring coldly at Han Yi.

She had just used a secret technique but failed to escape, and now her qi and blood were in turmoil, making it difficult to calm down.

"I don't like the way you look at me..." Han Yi frowned. "To be honest, if you hadn't insisted on causing me trouble, I wouldn't be in this situation. I only have myself to blame."
