Longevity Gu Dao: Start From Refining Infatuation Gu

Chapter 226: Demon Summoning Heart Sutra Manifests in the Mortal World, Weakness is Original Sin

"Not good."

Guard Zhang Wen's hair stood on end. He never expected that the owner of this talisman shop would actually have a Gold Core guard, and he hadn't sensed the other party's aura at all before.

Originally, he had been a bit careless in making his move, after all, the other party was just a Foundation Building female cultivator.

No matter what, she was not his opponent.

But who could have expected that this woman would actually have a Gold Core cultivator protecting her, it was truly beyond his knowledge.

Who exactly is this woman, could it be that there is also a Nascent Soul ancestor behind her?!

At this moment, he regretted a bit. It's always the heart that kills people, the word "heart" is like a knife.

If he had known, he would have investigated the background of this stunning female cultivator before making a move.

Unfortunately, it was already too late.

Bang!

At this moment, Zhou Sui's clone made a fierce move, with the force of tens of thousands of kilograms, it struck like a true dragon, solidly hitting Guard Zhang Wen.

A terrifying destructive force penetrated the defensive robe on Guard Zhang Wen's body, directly hitting his internal organs.

"Ah!"

Immediately, Guard Zhang Wen let out a miserable scream, his whole body flew out like a cannonball, skimming across the ground for hundreds of meters.

The ground was filled with a shocking crack.

The road, which was originally paved with marble slabs, now had numerous cracks.

The surrounding cultivators were also startled and scattered in all directions.

Finally, he crashed heavily into a thick wall hundreds of meters away before coming to a stop.

But even so, after being hit by this punch, he was already seriously injured, a large amount of blood flowing from his body, and countless bones throughout his body were broken.

He fell to the ground, barely breathing.

"You damn thing, how dare you lay a hand on my people."

"Do you know who I, Shangguan Xu, am?"

"Believe it or not, with a single command from me, I can exterminate your entire clan."

Seeing this scene, Shangguan Xu was both shocked and angry, this was the first time he had encountered such a thing.

Originally in a very good mood, he wanted to forcefully take a civilian woman.

But who could have expected that this time he had kicked an iron plate, causing his guard Zhang Wen to be seriously injured in an instant.

If he didn't provide immediate medical treatment, he would probably be done for.

Before Shangguan Xu could continue speaking, Zhou Sui's main body instantly teleported over and slapped him hard in the face.

Bang!

Shangguan Xu hadn't even reacted yet when he suffered a fatal blow, fortunately he had many Law Treasures on him.

At this moment, the High Grade defensive Law Treasure, the Profound Turtle Shield, sensed the fatal danger and instantly activated its defensive shield.

A transparent energy shield covered him, with dense turtle shell patterns appearing on it, containing powerful defensive power. Even a full-force Gold Core attack could be blocked.

However, even so, his whole body seemed to be whipped like a spinning top, flying up and crashing hard into the ground hundreds of meters away, creating a huge deep pit, with flying debris and rolling dust.

Although this blow did not cause fatal injuries, it was extremely embarrassing.

Like a turtle, lying on the ground.

"Young master."

Seeing this scene, the nearby guard Li Hu was shocked and angry. Now that Shangguan Xu was in such a miserable state, he, as a guard, would probably be held responsible and might even face severe punishment from the Nascent Soul Ancestor.

Boom~

Without saying a word, he immediately took out a low-grade Law Treasure, the Red Tiger Claw, from his body. It was made from the claw of a Gold Core Tiger Demon, indestructible, and contained terrifying Geng Metal power, specifically designed to break armor.

Once hit, the whole body would be torn apart. Even a low-grade defensive Law Treasure would be difficult to withstand.

With this low-grade Law Treasure, he was practically invincible.

Not to mention being invincible at the same level, but few people could withstand his attack.

In the next second, the Red Tiger Claw attacked, transforming into a terrifying tiger claw in mid-air, like a real Gold Core Tiger Demon, releasing a strong killing intent that covered several miles.

The surrounding cultivators trembled in fear, retreating continuously, not daring to approach.

After all, this was a battle between Gold Core cultivators. Anyone who approached would be killed by the aftermath, without a complete corpse.

Swoosh!

Although Zhou Sui's body was comparable to a Gold Core body and contained the bloodline of a dragon and elephant, he would not foolishly confront the opponent head-on. He used Teleportation Gu and instantly moved behind the guard Li Hu.

What?!

Guard Li Hu was dumbfounded. He never expected this mysterious cultivator's speed to be so fast. It couldn't be described as fast anymore; it was like the Nascent Soul Ancestor's instant movement.

At this moment, he didn't have time to change his move.

Boom!

This claw struck the empty space, instantly shattering a nearby building, as if a world-shaking monster descended from the sky and crushed the multi-story building with a single claw.

Fortunately, the nearby cultivators had already fled, otherwise, this strike would have killed countless enemies.

Terrifying energy swept across the land, creating astonishing ravines, with flying debris and rolling dust.

"Kill!"

Zhou Sui's expression was indifferent as a flying sword appeared in his hand, and a massive amount of mana was infused into the sword.

The Fourth Form of the True Dragon Sword Technique, Dragon Raises Its Head!

At this moment, a surge of True Dragon Sword Intent erupted, and faintly, a virtual image of a true dragon appeared behind him, as if an ancient true dragon had descended to the mortal world.

Swish!

A sword stabbed out, the sword light as fast as lightning, to the extent that even divine consciousness couldn't perceive it, instantly hitting the guard Li Hu.

"How is this possible?!"

"What is this guy's background?"

"How can he be so powerful?"

Guard Li Hu widened his eyes, a look of shock appearing in the depths of his pupils, because he suddenly discovered that the low-grade defensive treasure he was wearing was as fragile as paper in front of this extremely sharp sword energy.

It was easily pierced by this extremely sharp sword energy.

A huge blood hole appeared in his abdomen in an instant, and blood flowed down as if it were free.

With a thud, his body fell to the ground, almost losing all combat power.

Of course, due to the formidable vitality of the Gold Core cultivator, he was temporarily not dead.

"Husband, you're really strong."

At this moment, Leng Yuxi arrived late and saw her husband, Zhou Sui, easily inflicting heavy damage on an early-stage Gold Core cultivator with every move.

Although her husband had been practicing on the mountain for years and rarely went out for adventure and battle.

People thought that her husband was not good at fighting and was just a formation master and alchemist.

Little did they know that his talent for battle was extraordinary.

With a cultivation at the peak of Foundation Building, he easily defeated an early-stage Gold Core cultivator.

Just this achievement alone is enough to leave a mark in the history of cultivation world.

Such combat power is truly exaggerated and unimaginable.

"Die!"

At this moment, Shangguan Xu finally reacted. Looking at his two Gold Core guards who were almost half-dead, he knew that he had kicked the iron plate.

His face twisted, and he took out the second High Grade Law Treasure, the Invisible Needle, from his body.

It was refined from the essence of metals, invisible and traceless, injuring people in an invisible manner.

Moreover, it specialized in breaking various defensive Law Treasures and was unparalleled in killing.

With this High Grade Law Treasure, he didn't know how many enemies he had killed.

Even a mid-stage Gold Core cultivator, when encountering the High Grade Law Treasure Invisible Needle, could be instantly killed if they were careless.

Whoosh!

In an instant, Shangguan Xu manipulated the High Grade Law Treasure Invisible Needle and attacked Zhou Sui.

In mid-air, a silver cold light appeared silently, blending into the void, moving at an unimaginable speed, and in the blink of an eye, it arrived next to Zhou Sui.

Seeing that it was about to hit Zhou Sui's body, but Zhou Sui had long sensed Shangguan Xu's actions.

Especially with his insight, he was constantly monitoring his surroundings, even stronger than his spiritual power.

Shangguan Xu's little tricks couldn't escape his notice.

Swish!

Zhou Sui activated the Teleportation Gu, his figure flashed, and he instantly avoided Shangguan Xu's attack.

Boom~

The invisible needle immediately hit a building in the distance, instantly shattering the several-story-high building. Countless transparent energy burst out, turning the building into a honeycomb.

In just an instant, this building became ruins.

It can be fully imagined how powerful this High Grade Law Treasure Invisible Needle is.

If it hit a mountain, it could instantly collapse it.

Among High Grade Law Treasures, its destructive power is also among the best.

"Impossible."

"How could you possibly escape my invisible needle?!"

Shangguan Xu was instantly dumbfounded. Previously, whenever he used this Law Treasure, he was invincible. Often, his enemies knew nothing and were instantly killed by his invisible needle, without any resistance.

But now, this enemy in front of him seemed to be able to anticipate his moves and easily dodge his attacks.

He immediately realized that this enemy in front of him was not comparable to the cultivators he had encountered before.

However, Zhou Sui had no intention of answering any of Shangguan Xu's words. He held a flying sword and once again used the True Dragon Sword Technique, thrusting it towards Shangguan Xu.

True Dragon Sword Intent!

At this moment, this sword was several times more terrifying than before. The sword qi and Sword Intent converged, forming a terrifying sword aura that was unstoppable, even more terrifying than the invisible needle.

It was as if a true dragon was roaring.

Boom!

With just one sword, the High Grade defensive Law Treasure, Xuantuozhao, on Shangguan Xu's body was instantly shattered. The entire energy shield was torn apart, and he was also hit by a powerful impact, crashing heavily onto the ground.

Instantly, a huge deep pit was formed.

With a "pu" sound, he spewed out a mouthful of blood. He suffered an unprecedented force, and his internal organs were severely damaged.

At this moment, Shangguan Xu finally understood what fear meant. A chill rose from the soles of his feet to the top of his head. This man in front of him really wanted to kill him.

The problem was, he was the son of the Nascent Soul Patriarch, Shangguan Qing, and a cultivator in the early stage of the Gold Core realm.

He still had a bright future ahead of him. He could become a Nascent Soul Patriarch, or even a Soul Formation Patriarch.

There were still many honors and riches for him to enjoy.

How could he die here now?

"No, don't kill me."

"I am Shangguan Xu, my father is the Nascent Soul Patriarch of the Infinite Unity Alliance, Shangguan Qing."

"If you kill me, you will definitely be hunted down by my father, and even by the Infinite Unity Alliance."

"Even if you hide at the ends of the earth, you will have no way out, do you understand?"

Shangguan Xu threatened, revealing his identity as the son of the Nascent Soul Patriarch.

"So what if you're a Nascent Soul Patriarch?"

"The Canglan Sea Region is so big, just find a place to hide, and the Nascent Soul Patriarch won't be able to find us."

"There are many people who have offended the Nascent Soul Patriarch, and not all of them will die."

"Husband, you don't need to worry about us."

"Worst case scenario, we'll just move again. The world is so big, there's nowhere we can't go."

Leng Yuxi snorted coldly, her beautiful eyes revealing a hint of coldness.

Anyway, she didn't have a deep attachment to this sea area.

As long as she was with her husband, anywhere would be home, just another move.

This kid thought he could intimidate them with the Nascent Soul Patriarch, it was simply a joke.

What?!

Upon hearing these words, Shangguan Xu's face turned green. He originally thought this man was ruthless, but he didn't expect the woman to be even more ruthless.

She didn't care at all about the identity of his Nascent Soul ancestor's son and wanted to kill him on the spot.

Now he regretted it deeply.

If he had known that this woman had such a terrifying man backing her, he wouldn't have laid a finger on her even if he was beaten to death.

It was like a knife hanging over the heads of many male cultivators.

So many male cultivators died at the hands of women like this.

"I can spare you," Zhou Sui said calmly.

"But you must swear on your demonic heart."

"You are not allowed to speak of what happened today."

"And you are not allowed to seek revenge on us by any means."

"If you can do this, then I can spare your life."

Zhou Sui looked at Shangguan Xu indifferently.

He had originally wanted to kill this guy instantly, but he remembered that this kid had a Nascent Soul ancestor behind him, so he restrained himself.

Moreover, it was not easy to find a base like this, and he didn't want to give it up.

Most importantly, the situation might not be irreparable.

Because he had cultivated an unparalleled demonic technique - the Demon Summoning Heart Sutra.

The first layer of this technique was to condense demonic seeds and implant them into the enemy's body.

Once the promise made by the demonic seed was violated, it would immediately activate and devour the enemy's soul, turning them into a puppet.

He hadn't had the opportunity to use this demonic technique before.

After all, everyone in the Immortal Mist Sect was on the same side.

He couldn't possibly use this demonic technique and implant demonic seeds into his own people.

But now it was different. These three Gold Core Perfected Beings were the best candidates to use the Demon Summoning Heart Sutra.

If the demonic seeds were implanted, their lives would no longer be in their own hands.

"This!"

Upon hearing this, Shangguan Xu almost burst out laughing, and his heart instantly calmed down a lot.

It seemed that this guy, on the surface, was fearless of his father, Shangguan Qing, but in reality, he was terrified.

After all, who would want to offend a Nascent Soul ancestor for no reason? That would be seeking death.

As for swearing on his demonic heart, he was not afraid at all.

As the son of a Nascent Soul ancestor, he naturally had some spiritual objects to break the oath of the demonic heart.

Of course, he wouldn't foolishly reveal these things.

If he really angered this guy and he turned around and killed him, he wouldn't even be able to cry.

Even if his father sought revenge for him in the future, it would be meaningless.

By that time, he would already be dead, so what use would it be?

His own life was precious, and he couldn't exchange it for this guy's life.

"Alright."

"I promise you."

"I will absolutely not speak of anything that happened today."

"And I will not seek revenge on you in any way."

"If I violate this oath, let heaven and earth punish me."

Shangguan Xu solemnly swore, making an oath to the heavens.

Buzz~~

At the moment he finished speaking, an invisible demonic seed silently and instantly entered Shangguan Xu's body, merging with his soul as if forming a contract.

At this moment, Zhou Sui sensed that he had formed an invisible connection with Shangguan Xu.

It seemed that Shangguan Xu was a part of himself.

But this demonic seed had not yet activated.

Once it did, it would instantly devour Shangguan Xu's soul.

"So, this is the demonic seed condensed by the Demon Summoning Heart Sutra?"

"Essentially, it is a kind of inner demon, a controllable inner demon."

"If the promise and contract are violated, it will activate immediately."

"No wonder everyone in the Yama Sect in the Eastern Desolate Continent wants to kill them."

"Such demonic methods are incredibly eerie and terrifying, and a slight carelessness can trigger an inner demon."

"After all, no one can guarantee that they can always keep their promises."

Zhou Sui was very satisfied.

The methods of the Demon Summoning Heart Sutra were simply unimaginable, almost on par with the Gu worms he controlled.

And it was full of mysteries, making it difficult for enemies to resist.

Clearly, sparing Shangguan Xu's life was the right decision.

After all, if he killed Shangguan Xu here, Shangguan Xu's life token would instantly shatter, and then Nascent Soul ancestor Shangguan Qing would know that his son had died.

At that time, even if he didn't want to, he would have to embark on a journey of escape.

But now it was different.

Shangguan Xu had merged with the demonic seed and made an inner demon oath.

Once the oath was violated, the demonic seed would instantly possess him, and his life and death would be in Zhou Sui's hands.

After that, Shangguan Xu would die whenever he wanted, and Zhou Sui wouldn't be implicated in Shangguan Xu's death.

As long as the life token didn't shatter, Nascent Soul ancestor Shangguan Qing wouldn't come looking for trouble.

After all, Shangguan Xu had offended so many enemies. It wouldn't make sense for Nascent Soul ancestor Shangguan Qing to go after every single one of them.

It could be said that this was a plan that achieved multiple goals.

"Fellow Daoist, I have already made the Heart Demon Vow."

"May I leave now?"

"Oh, and what about my two Gold Core guards? Can they also leave?"

Shangguan Xu couldn't wait to leave this dangerous place, away from this dangerous and terrifying man.

But he still put on a flattering smile, trying to please the other party.

In any case, he absolutely must not provoke the other party.

After all, his life was in the other party's hands.

"Oh, you haven't forgotten about your guards. You do have some loyalty," Zhou Sui said indifferently.

"Let your two Gold Core guards leave, it's not a problem, but they also have to make the Heart Demon Vow."

"Otherwise, they can only die here."

Zhou Sui said calmly.

"No problem, we will also make the Heart Demon Vow."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Wen and Li Hu, the two Gold Core cultivators, were overjoyed.

They thought they were doomed and would surely become the target of venting, but they didn't expect to have a glimmer of hope.

To be honest, although they were hit hard by Zhou Sui's attack and were seriously injured, they were not completely dead.

If they took healing pills and received timely treatment, they could still save their lives.

Naturally, they didn't want to die in this place.

"Then let's begin."

Zhou Sui silently condensed two demonic seeds and sent them into the bodies of the two Gold Core guards.

"I, Zhang Wen, swear to the heavens."

"I, Li Hu, swear to the heavens."

Thinking of this, the two Gold Core guards immediately made the Heart Demon Vow to Zhou Sui.

Buzz~~

The two demonic seeds merged into their bodies silently.

Taking root and sprouting in the depths of their souls.

Of course, the two Gold Core cultivators were completely unaware.

...

Half an hour later, Shangguan Xu quickly left with his two Gold Core guards. They didn't dare to stay in Xianxia City, fearing that Zhou Sui would change his mind and kill them here.

At this time, disciples from the Immortal Mist Sect quickly sealed off the area, repairing the buildings and streets, while completely blocking the news.

The Independent Cultivators in Xianxia City only knew that there was a battle between Gold Core Perfected Beings in the city.

But the outbreak was brief and didn't cause any casualties, only some damage to buildings.

Although the Independent Cultivators were shocked, they couldn't gather much information.

And they didn't delve too deep into the matter.

After all, curiosity killed the cat.

That was the secret of Gold Core Perfected Beings. If they knew too much, it wouldn't benefit them as Independent Cultivators.

"Husband, can we really trust the Heart Demon Vows of those three people?" Leng Yuxi doubted their character, thinking that they might seek revenge once they were safe.

Of course, this was her Husband's decision, and she wouldn't refuse.

"Don't worry, I don't trust their character," Zhou Sui said.

"But I trust the demonic seeds I planted in them."

"Have you forgotten? I once obtained an inheritance from the Yama Sect."

Zhou Sui spoke, revealing the power of the Demon Summoning Heart Sutra.

"I see, no wonder you are so confident. You had already planted demonic seeds in those guys," Leng Yuxi suddenly realized, understanding her Husband's plan.

No wonder her Husband readily agreed to their request.

In fact, from the beginning, those three were already dead.

It was just to avoid trouble that they weren't killed on the spot.

"I'm sorry, Husband."

"It's all because of me that we encountered this disaster," Mu Ziyan came to Zhou Sui, feeling guilty.

If it weren't for her, they wouldn't have attracted Shangguan Xu and wouldn't have encountered such a calamity.

"Foolish, what does it have to do with you?"

"You did nothing wrong."

"If anything, it's because you're too weak."

"In the world of cultivation, weakness is the original sin."

"If you were a Nascent Soul Ancestor, who would dare to harm you?"

"When you see that Shangguan Xu, just slap him to death."

Zhou Sui looked at Mu Ziyan.

"I understand, Husband."

Upon hearing this, Mu Ziyan clenched her fists and a fierce ambition surged within her.

Originally, she was a cultivator without any ambition, thinking that as long as she had her Husband by her side, she could just be a wife and mother, without needing to do anything.

But now it was different.

Even with her Husband's protection, she still needed to strive for improvement.

In the world of cultivation, without strength, one would be bullied, and this was an unchangeable cruel reality.
