Killing Demons: Upgrading from Calligraphy

Chapter 501 The storm is coming

"By the way, there's one more thing..."

After a moment of silence, Qi Xiu mentioned the woman holding the sword who was still sealed in the universe in his sleeve.

This woman has a mysterious origin and is in charge of the Nanming Great Wilderness of the Hundred Thousand Mountains. She has tremendous combat power and a very high level of swordsmanship. An ordinary Taoist master cannot survive more than a single round in front of her.

He joined forces with Hu Tianzong and summoned the spirits of Wei Gong and Zhao Qianqiu.

It took four people to defeat one to barely take it down, which shows how terrifying it is.

After listening to Qi Xiu's description of the woman holding the sword, Dongfang Qing's eyes narrowed slightly and he sighed softly:

“How come I have never heard of a being with such fighting power?

The Shiwan Mountains have also learned to hide their strength."

Qi Xiu also told the story of how he was almost killed by the hidden means in the demons' bodies in the Burial Valley, and then he spoke in a deep voice:

“This woman must have a close relationship with that mysterious swordsman and must be one of his subordinates.

After being captured by me, the woman remained very calm and composed, as if she was not worried at all that I would interrogate her.

I think there must be some back-up support.”

“No problem, I will take her to the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder City and use the Thunder Pool method to refine her memory.

If that mysterious swordsman is really capable, he should come to my Divine Thunder City and rescue her."

Dongfang Qing looked calm and composed, but he spoke with full confidence.

This is the confidence of having a magical weapon to suppress the sect.

Such as the great artifacts like the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder City.

There are no more than thirty items on the surface in the entire Tianyuan world.

And the people of Middle-earth have nineteen of them.

These great artifacts account for a large part of the reason why the Hundred Thousand Mountains dare not invade the entire Middle-earth realm.

The Nine Heavens Divine Thunder City is one of the nineteen great artifacts.

The Shenxiao Sect, which controls it, naturally also holds important weapons and is not panicking.

Although the Taoist Alliance has a ban, no one is allowed to touch the sacred weapon without the power to destroy the sect.

But verbal constraints are always just constraints.

Rabbits are herbivores, but they will bite if they are cornered.

"This method is very good."

Nodding, Qi Xiu also felt that this approach was the safest method at the moment.

Then he released the sword-holding woman who was suppressed by the Dragon Binding Rope from his sleeve.

"Untie her." Dongfang Qing smiled faintly after taking a look at the ordinary-looking woman in front of him but with a pair of frighteningly sharp eyes.

Although the woman holding the sword has extremely strong fighting power and can kill a Taoist master of the same level in seconds.

But if you don’t have a true spirit, you will always be an ant.

Even the most powerful Taoist body is just a stronger ant.

"The head of the Divine Sky Sect, Dongfang Qing?"

The restraints on her body were untied, and the woman holding the sword looked calm, with no intention of resisting or escaping.

After all, in front of Yuanshen Zhenzun, unless you are an equal existence, even if you commit suicide, he can still pull you out from the long river of time.

Escape is even more ridiculous.

"Oh, it seems I'm quite famous." Hearing the woman calling out his name, Dongfang Qing chuckled and looked her up and down with his black and white eyes.

"What a powerful sword realm, tsk, it's only one step away from the soul realm.

Unfortunately, you may never be able to cross this threshold in your lifetime."

“It is rumored that the Eastern Sect Master is the youngest Yuanshen Zhenzun since ancient times. Seeing him today, he is indeed extraordinary.

It's a pity that the Dao Alliance loves to rank people based on seniority, otherwise with your talent and qualifications, you should have been seated in one of the twelve seats long ago."

Facing a True Spirit, the woman holding the sword still appeared very calm, and her words seemed to indicate that she was very familiar with the human race and even the Taoist Alliance.

There was a lot of sarcasm in his words, but he was still standing up for Dongfang Qing.

"You little girl, you may not look that good, but you are very scheming.

Hey, but you're not quite right.

In fact, the Taoist Alliance had already invited me to be one of the twelve Taoist seats a long time ago.

But I have a casual personality, and I am already overwhelmed by the affairs of the Shenxiao Sect, so how can I have the time to manage the Taoist Alliance?

As for what you said about the youngest Yuanshen Zhenzun in modern times, that is indeed true.

But, it may not be the case soon..."

After chuckling twice, Dongfang Qing looked at Qi Xiu beside him thoughtfully.

"Okay, let's stop talking nonsense and get going."

After a lot of nonsense, Dongfang Qing waved his sleeves and a emerald green lotus leaf fell down, turning into strands of black hair that tightly trapped the woman holding the sword like a dumpling.

"You go back first. The refining process is not a one-day job. You have worked hard during this period. Go back and have a rest. I will notify you immediately if there is any news.

The Dao League will probably summon you soon, and you will be busy by then."

"Well, thank you, Master."

……

After returning from the Zongzhu Peak, Qi Xiu brought the drunk Taoist Yun Xiong back to Yunti Peak.

"Junior brother, you are back?"

Ge Ping was the only one left on Yunti Peak. Sensing the arrival of two powerful auras, he hurried out of the yard, just in time to see Qi Xiu returning with Taoist Yun Xiong.

"Brother Wu, long time no see."

Looking at Ge Ping who was approaching, Qi Xiu smiled and waved.

<divclass="contentadv">As Dongfang Qing said, although they had only spent eight or nine years in the Great Wilderness of Nanming, in fact, thirty-seven years had passed in the outside world.

"It's been nearly forty years since you and Master left. I miss you so much.

Master, this is..."

He walked over and patted Qi Xiu's arm vigorously. Ge Ping also noticed Taoist Yun Xiong who was still sleeping soundly.

"I drank a few more glasses at the headmaster's place and got drunk."

Shrugging helplessly, Qi Xiu and Ge Ping sent Taoist Yun Xiong back to Guanlan Cliff. After instructing several servants to take good care of him, they came outside.

"After so many years of absence, Fifth Senior Brother's cultivation has improved a lot."

Sitting together in front of a deep blue pool of water, Qi Xiu's eyes moved slightly, and he saw Ge Ping's cultivation level clearly.

“Don’t mention it. Although I have been practicing hard every day these years, my cultivation has been increasing very slowly. Now I am only at the sixth level of Bloodstained Realm, which is far from comparable to that of my junior brother.

I am afraid I may not have the chance to achieve enlightenment in this lifetime."

Spreading his hands somewhat frustratedly, Ge Ping spoke softly.

Among all the disciples of Yunti Peak, he has the lowest talent, and now his cultivation progress is lagging behind the rest.

He is over 400 years old this year and has already lived half of his life.

With his current progress in cultivation, he has basically no chance of achieving enlightenment before his life span runs out.

"Fifth Brother, don't worry. Just concentrate on your cultivation. I will find a way to help you solve the problem of your life span."

Knowing what Ge Ping was worried about, Qi Xiu took out a longevity peach.

“This spiritual fruit is called Longevity Peach, and its effect in increasing longevity is even better than spiritual rice. Your talent is not bad, but your character is not very compatible with our sect’s thunder method, so your progress in cultivation is slow.

I'll help you adjust it in a few days, and there will definitely be changes."

Qi Xiu was not bragging when he said this.

He now relies on the Five Elements of Taoism, and the scriptures he practices are all the essence of ancient times. His powerful skills and experience are beyond the reach of some veteran Taoist masters.

It is extremely easy to instruct a blood-stained monk like Ge Ping.

Although it may not enable him to attain enlightenment in a short period of time, it can smooth out his path and remove obstacles.

Looking at the birthday peach handed to him, Ge Ping's expression was moved and his voice trembled:

"Junior brother, I..."

"Master, save me!"

Before Ge Ping could express his gratitude, he saw a disheveled figure covered in blood falling from the Yunti Peak while howling miserably, attracting the curious glances of countless Shenxiao Sect monks passing by, wondering what had happened.

"Eldest brother?"

Seeing that the figure who had just fallen was the eldest brother Wei Wuji, Qi Xiu and Ge Ping looked at each other, then transformed themselves into a beam of lightning and rushed to the place of fall in an instant.

Lying in a huge pit that was smashed out by force, Wei Wuji was covered in black smoke and blood. A strange aura kept wandering around his body, like black lines covering his entire body.

A black shadow on his forehead continued to expand, eroding the ancestral acupoint between his eyebrows.

"An external demon has entered the body?"

Landing next to Wei Wuji, Qi Xiu discovered that there was something strange about his body. His face turned cold and he could tell at a glance that the eldest brother was possessed by an external demon.

"Humph!"

With a cold snort, Qi Xiu stretched out his big hand and grabbed the expanding black shadow on Wei Wuji's forehead. The spiritual power of the Pure Yang realm was like a blazing sun, burning the black shadow so hard that it screamed in agony and emitted white smoke.

After capturing the foreign demon, Qi Xiu waved his sleeve and a stream of Yi Mu vitality entered Wei Wuji's body, quickly helping him repair his damaged body.

"Junior brother...you saved me?"

After his wounds healed, Wei Wuji, who had fallen into a coma, gradually woke up. When he saw Qi Xiu and Ge Ping standing in front of him, he immediately realized that he had been saved.

"Big Brother, who attacked you and wanted to use this foreign demon to invade your body?"

With a thought, Qi Xiu used a talisman to suppress the external demon in his hand, and then asked Wei Wuji slowly.

The external demon is an extremely vicious evil creature.

Once the ancestral orifice between the eyebrows is invaded, the person will be controlled and alienated, becoming a slave of the devil, unable to live or die.

However, although this foreign demon is strange, it has no other means and can only wait for an opportunity to invade when the monks are seriously injured.

That's why Qi Xiu asked Wei Wuji who attacked and killed him.

“They were a group of evil cultivators who sneaked in from the Shiwan Mountains. They attacked and killed me while I was preparing for the catastrophe of enlightenment.

Fortunately, I had the thunder talisman given by my master, so I was able to injure them and escape back."

Wei Wuji clenched his fists, looking angry.

If he were to fight those scum evil cultivators head-on, he was 100% sure that he could turn them into ashes.

But it happened that he was going through the tribulation of becoming a god at that time, and his body and mind had suffered severe damage, so he was seized by the enemy and injured.

He was almost invaded by foreign demons and had his body taken away.

If I meet him again in the future, I will burn his body, extract his soul, and immerse him in a pool of thunder forever.

"Smuggled from the Shiwan Mountains?"

Hearing the voice, his brows furrowed, and the golden wheel of merit appeared faintly behind Qi Xiu's head, as if he had a vague premonition of some kind of crisis.

It seems that the annihilation of the Ten Thousand Mountains in the Nanming Wilderness has begun to trigger a chain reaction.

And the woman holding the sword was captured by me.

I’m afraid that mysterious swordsman will not give up.

The storm is coming... The world is going to be restless again...
