This is how immortals are cultivated

If the Yin Cang Blood Demon is the object referred to by the blood light sign, then the blood light cannot become stronger and stronger.

Unless...I misunderstood it.

The blood light in Master’s motto did not refer to the Yin Cang Blood Demon, but to some other existence.

Qingyi only recently confirmed that she had made a mistake. Before that, she had always held some hope.

After all, those who were able to stain an entire state with blood all existed in Jingzhou a few months ago. Apart from the Yin Cang Blood Demon, Qingyi really couldn't think of anyone else who could do it and had such qualifications.

The bloodiness now is no longer comparable to that of a few months ago. According to her deduction and calculation, the bloodiness is not far from completely dyeing Jingzhou red.

And when the blood light completely permeates Jingzhou, it means that she has lost the opportunity to break through, and she may have to stay in the Lingmi Realm for the rest of her life.

This is about her own path, and everything else can be put aside. How can she not be anxious and upset?

"We can't just sit there and wait for death any longer."

Qingyi spoke to Wuzhou Mu.

"We are trapped here, but outside Chong'an Prefecture, ghosts, gods, demons and monsters are causing great harm."

Although Chong'an Prefecture is now isolated from the outside world, it has received news from the outside world that was forcibly sent in through secret techniques.

The person who brought the news was a spiritual secret agent who once worked for the Supervisory Office of the Wu State. Later, because he wanted to establish his own Taoist lineage, he received a blood seal and became the local tyrant of Jingzhou County.

Because of this relationship, this spiritual secretary once used the Supervisory Department's communication secret technique to forcibly deliver a secret letter to the state government.

Through that secret letter, the top leaders of Chong'an Prefecture also learned about the situation outside.

The remnants of Nanjing Kingdom, the ghosts and gods in the mountains, and the White Lotus monster are wreaking havoc in the outside world.

The spiritual master who sent the message was able to stop it because he was strong enough, considered the best among the spiritual masters. He also had a deep family background and many treasures, which allowed him to occupy an entire county and barely hold on.

The rest of Jingzhou is far less powerful than this Lingmi. Facing the combined forces of ghosts and gods plus the White Lotus demon, they would have probably fallen long ago.

After hearing Qingyi's words, Wuzhou Mu was silent for a moment.

The secret letter that was forcibly sent in actually meant to ask for help, but they were powerless to do anything about it.

"I'm ready to leave Chong'an Prefecture."

Qingyi stated her decision.

Upon hearing Qingyi's words, Wuzhou Mu frowned.

This envoy from the capital was in charge of a real weapon, and that real weapon played a significant role in the confrontation between Yuan Jingshan and the two True Evil Realm beings.

If Qingyi leaves Chong'an Prefecture, he will definitely take the real weapon with him. At that time, the pressure on Shanzhang Jingyuan will undoubtedly increase sharply.

Before Qingyi announced his decision, he had naturally already calculated Wuzhou Mu's reaction.

If there were no sufficient reasons, even if I was an envoy from the capital, a disciple of a Taoist priest, the governor of Wuzhou would never let me leave.

"Don't worry, leaving Chong'an Prefecture is not because I'm afraid or want to leave Jingzhou. In fact, I'm planning to look for opportunities outside."

"Now that the stalemate has lasted so long, and there's been no support from the imperial court, I'm afraid the situation in Taizhou has already run into serious trouble, and they have no time to care about Jingzhou."

"We must consider the worst-case scenario, which is that we are trapped and die in Chong'an Prefecture without any support."

"In this case, we have to take action and proactively look for opportunities to break the deadlock."

"For example, I broke through the realm of true disaster."

"As long as I can break through the True Calamity, I will be able to fully master this [Book of Operational Calamity]. Then, together with Senior Yuan Jing, resolving Jingzhou's crisis will be easy."

Wuzhou Mu was not surprised that Qingyi directly said that he wanted to break through the Zhen'e realm, because the envoy had told him frankly the purpose of coming to Jingzhou before.

He also knew that this young lady in green was only one step away from the realm of true disaster.

Wu Zhoumu thought silently, and after a moment he cast another golden talisman.

Soon after, Wu Zhoumu spoke up: "I agreed. I asked for the opinion of Yuan Jingshan, and he agreed."

"Qingyi Shangshi, when are you going to set off?"

"Of course, the sooner the better. Since Senior Yuan Jing also approves of my plan, then, without further ado, I will set off immediately."

"Okay, I will help you escape from Lord Yuan Jing's ban, but you will have to rely on yourself to break through the blockade of the Lan Can Demon God outside. Shanzhang Yuan Jing said that he will help you attract the attention of the Great Demon God."

"Well, thank you for troubling Lord Wu and Senior Yuan Jing." Qingyi nodded slightly.

With the help of the real artifact [Book of Movement of Disasters and Fate], there is no problem in hiding and leaving Chong'an Prefecture.

"Also, if possible, please ask the envoy to go to Haixin City first. The Master Jin Yan who sent the letter earlier is there. Master Jin Yan was once known as the number one spiritual master in Jingzhou, and he should be able to help you a little." Wu Zhoumu said again.

He agreed to Qingyi's plan with this in mind.

"I understand. When I get out, I will go find Fellow Daoist Jin Yan and lend him a helping hand."

Jingzhou Haixin County.

The entire Haixin City was shrouded in a layer of golden light, and a large formation was operating here.

Taoist Jin Yan was standing on the wall at this time, looking outside the city.

The camp outside the city has already taken on the appearance of a military camp.

The demons of the White Lotus Sect had joined forces with the inhabitants of the nearby Three Mountains and Five Villages, along with ghosts, spirits, and monsters, to form a massive army to capture Haixin City. However, they were temporarily blocked, and the two sides had been deadlocked for several months.

However, at this time, the White Lotus Demon Cult's army camp was in chaos.

The sticky mixture covered the land outside the city. Broken bones, armor and body parts were stuck together and scattered crookedly. The camp was broken into pieces and the battle flags with white lotus prints collapsed.

The majestic and terrifying military formation was broken through in less than half an incense stick of time.

In the chaotic camp outside the city, a pitch-black one-horned dragon covered with tentacles roared and revealed its true form, but just as it flew up, its huge body was peeled off, and dirty blood fell like a curtain of rain.

Another milky white light surrounded by white lotus buds rose from the battlefield and quickly fled into the distance, but the huge explosion sounded even faster. A white bone spear was thrown into the sky and accurately hit the light, shattering the lotus bud that protected it and making a huge bloody hole in its chest, causing it to fall straight down.

Outside the city, shouts of killing shook the sky, followed by terrified howls, and finally the sound returned to calm.

Against the backdrop of the corpses scattered all over the ground outside the city, there was a dead silence without any sign of life.

On the top of the city wall, Master Jin Yan stared intently at the only person still standing on the battlefield.

The tall figure, over three meters tall and covered in thick blood mist, gradually became smaller and eventually turned into a slender young man, holding the hole in his chest in his hand, as if he was a White Lotus Messenger who had stopped moving.

On the top of the city wall, besides Master Jin Yan, there was someone else beside him.

He was wearing a clerk's uniform and was obviously from the Haixincheng County Government.

"Sir.....then...are those reinforcements?"

Apart from the reinforcements, it is hard to imagine that there would be such a brutal force that destroyed the army organized by the White Lotus Demon Sect and killed several ghosts and gods one after another.

That must be reinforcements.

Because it is really hard to imagine what Haixin City would have to face if that devil-like character was not a reinforcement.

Master Jin Yan also swallowed his saliva and looked at the man outside the city.

This evil man was really unfamiliar, and Master Jin Yan had never seen him before.

But after slaughtering so many soldiers of the White Lotus Cult and even capturing their leader alive, the White Lotus Messenger really didn't seem like an enemy.

Just when Taoist Jin Yan was about to ask who the other party was and whether they were reinforcements sent by the court, he saw the murderer's eyes looking up.

When he met those eyes, Master Jin Yan felt as if an invisible hand was pinching his heart out of thin air, and even breathing became difficult.

His expression immediately changed drastically, and he shouted, "Use the formation to the maximum extent!"

On the city wall, at the foundation of the formation, officials immediately came with materials and were about to throw them into the formation base, which was like a huge millstone.

However, at this moment, a knife emerged from between heaven and earth and slashed on the formation of Haixin City.

The power of the sword made the formation shaky.

The second strike directly shattered the formation, completely cracking the formation base.

Master Jin Yan only heard a loud explosion, and then his eyes blurred, and a person appeared in front of him.

The man raised his palm, and it was as if the sky fell down as Master Jin Yan turned his palm.

Immediately afterwards, his vision went black.

But when he woke up again, he was already in a strange place.

An ominous and twisted inspiration filled the air, but he discovered that this was actually a peach forest.

The peach blossoms bloom here, so full and plump, I wonder what kind of fertile soil they were cultivated from.

At this moment, he was being held by the neck by a hand, walking through the peach forest like a chicken.

His vision was limited, and he couldn't see who was holding him from behind, but he could see that the person holding him was also holding someone with his other hand.

This person was very familiar to Master Jin Yan. He was a powerful enemy who had been confronting him for several months outside Haixin City. He was a white lotus demon from the White Lotus Sect with the Taoist name "Su Li".

Chapter 149: Nine Nether Prison

Taoist Su Li still had a large hole on his chest. Venerable Jin Yan knew the source of the hole. The white light that had been seen rising into the sky from the city walls had belonged to him. However, Taoist Su Li had been shot down. The ruthless individual's spear shattered his protective magical power, leaving a large hole in his chest. However, thanks to Miao Shengtian's blessing, the bloody hole had now healed.

He had fought several battles with this Su Li monster before, and they could be considered mortal enemies. But at this moment, both of them were held in the hands of the same person, and their lives and deaths were not in their own hands. When they looked at each other, there was the same hesitation, fear and anxiety in their eyes.

The source of this anxiety and fear is very simple.

With Haixin City as the pivot point, the months-long stalemate was broken in less than half an hour. But it wasn't Master Jinyan who stormed out of the city to repel the White Lotus Cult's forces. Nor was it the White Lotus Cult who led the army to breach the city. The stalemate was broken by a third party. And not one aiding Master Jinyan or the White Lotus Cult, but a third party truly on its own, and alone.

Just as the two men made eye contact, the people carrying them arrived at their destination, which turned out to be a deep abyss.

And the murderer threw them directly into it.

Along with the feeling of weightlessness, the two also regained their ability to move.

The two men who stabilized their bodies in mid-air attacked each other at the same time in perfect harmony.

It has nothing to do with the current situation, it is simply a chain of suspicion caused by the hatred formed during the months-long fighting between each other.

Both of them were afraid of being ambushed by the other.

But when the two men fought for the first time, the collision of their magical powers caused a noise that alarmed the existence in the abyss.

"There are new people coming. I didn't expect there would be two of them at once."

The voice was sharp and dry, as if it was being squeezed out of a shrinking throat.

There was an inexplicable emotion in the voice.

There was joyful anticipation, mockery, and despair, but all these emotions were mixed in one voice, which seemed a little crazy and even hysterically distorted.

Although this voice did not contain any inspiration and did not belong to the category of magic, it made Taoist Su Li and Master Jin Yan stop at the same time, and looked towards the source of the voice with great vigilance.

The deep cliff blocked the sunlight from above, or it was as if the entrance to the abyss was covered by some invisible object. Even when being thrown in, it was still daytime outside, but when looking up from within the abyss, it was like a starry night.

In the deep shadows, the two of them could clearly see the scenery in front of them.

I saw a person sitting cross-legged on a platform on the cliff that was only wide enough for one person to stand.

It was a figure so thin that skin and bones were visible. The plain white Taoist robe draped over him looked extremely large, and his gray hair was scattered. From a distance, he looked like a skeleton.

"Ah, the one who came this time is Junior Brother Li Su, hahaha..."

When his name was told and he was called "junior brother", Taoist Li Su paused for a moment, then carefully looked at this obviously abnormal "skeleton", but immediately his eyes widened in disbelief.

"You are... Senior Brother Fa Lian?!!!"

"How did you become like this?"

Unexpectedly, he would see his senior brother who came to Jingzhou with him but was in charge of a different county. Taoist Su Li suppressed his confusion and the urge to ask what was going on, and said:

"Brother Falian, please help me capture this lackey of the imperial court."

Upon hearing Taoist Su Li's words, Master Jin Yan immediately became alert and kept a distance from Taoist Su Li.

However, the Taoist Fa Lian did not have any intention of taking action and continued to sit quietly on the platform.

A strange, chilling, twisted smile appeared on that dry face:

"It's better to save some energy. The first tribulation when you first enter here is the most difficult. If you don't save some energy, you will be in trouble later."

"And...a lackey of the imperial court?"

Taoist Fa Lian suddenly laughed, but this made Taoist Su Li's heart skip a beat. He secretly took a few steps back and stayed away from his fellow teachers who were obviously not doing well.

"Since I've been captured and brought here, there's no distinction between the White Lotus Sacred Sect, the Wu Kingdom court, or any other Taoist sects."
