True Immortal of the Netherworld

Seeing that the Flame Spirit Ghost Claw used by Xu Yang was on the verge of collapse under the attack of his Taoist secret method "Thousand Layers of Water". Liu Haiyu was secretly proud that the off-beat ghost arts were never a match for my authentic Tao skills.

Thinking of this, Liu Haiyu looked at Xu Yang with a look of disdain unconsciously, and a proud smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"What, is this all you can do?" Liu Haiyu said sarcastically as he kept performing surgeries and his attack power continued unabated.

Xu Yang always maintained the posture of extending one palm, constantly injecting mana into the shot flame palm. Seeing the other party's contemptuous words, he was not angry. He smiled slightly and replied confidently: "Our contest has just begun."

After speaking, he also raised his left hand that he originally put down. His Haoran Heavenly Veins connecting Tianling Gai and Zifu immediately began to operate rapidly, and the speed and intensity of mana output suddenly increased by 30%. Then, he raised his left palm.

At the same time, A'Zhu's body in Xu Yang Zi's mansion, which had been eager to try, turned into a dazzling red flame and disappeared from the place.

As Xu Yang swung out his left palm, a two-foot-large flame palm print appeared out of thin air.

The flame palm print activated by A'Zhu's Nirvana Flame Spirit is different from that formed by the Wheel of Flame Spirit. Its shape is the same as the palm shape of Xu Yang's left hand. On its surface, a firebird with a golden crown and long neck raised its head and flapped its wings. The blazing heat it radiated seemed to scorch the surrounding void, and the golden beach was reflected in red.

"I didn't expect that you still had reservations." Liu Haiyu said in surprise.

He said it easily, but his movements were not sloppy. He made one mark with both hands. The original attack of only popping out one wall of water at a time became one with each hand. The two drainage walls were connected to Cheng Long, and they respectively faced the two flame spirit palm prints shot by Xu Yang.

On the surface, the size of the two drainage walls has not changed from before, but their follow-up speed has been much slower, resulting in a much reduced actual power after separation.

Xu Yang pushed his palms flat, continuously injecting mana into the two flame spirit palm seals, forming a match with Liu Haiyu's double row of "Thousand Layers of Water".

The attack between the two eventually evolved into a competition of both sides' physical strength.

For a moment, the sky was full of water and fire, and the pressure of the backlash hit the beach at the feet of the two of them, creating a sand pit with a radius of more than ten feet.

One is dressed in blue and the other is dressed in green.

The same raised hair.

The same confident gaze.

The same huge technique.

The same stunning determination.

As the stalemate lasted for a long time, Liu Haiyu looked at Xu Yang with less contempt and more appreciation. I didn't expect that the other party's cultivation in the fake elixir realm could have such profound skills. Moreover, in such a short period of time, the weakness of the "Thousand Layers of Water" technique was revealed.

The power of this "Thousand Layers of Water" technique lies in its ability to superimpose thousands of attacks in a short period of time to achieve the maximum attack effect. The so-called drop of water penetrates the stone, this is the truth. As for ordinary spells, most of them focus on condensing one's power to deliver a sudden blow, but the speed of exhaustion will also be very fast.

Xu Yang saw the clues of Liu Haiyu's technique, and used his strong mental power and deep magic power to activate two flame spirit palm seals at the same time to divide Liu Haiyu's attack. As a result, the attack speed and quantity superimposed on each palm print of the Thousand Layers of Water Technique are reduced, and the power is greatly reduced.

When Liu Haiyu silently recited the number "one thousand" in his heart, he began to admire Xu Yang's performance even more sincerely.

"Let's stop here, you have already received one of my moves." After saying that, Liu Haiyu stopped the technique, put his hands flat on his sides, and the Thousand Layers of Water technique came to an abrupt end.

"Concession!"

Xu Yang answered simply, and at the same time he retracted his extended palms, and the two palm prints turned into phantoms and disappeared into the air. Chakravartin and A'Zhu turned into two flames, one gold and one red, falling to his left and right. The palm was then taken back into the body.

The performance of the two is like a line between the sky and the sea, no distinction is made between high and low.

At this time, Xu Yang also admired Liu Haiyu's strength from the bottom of his heart. He knew that this self-proclaimed authentic Taoist disciple of Zhenlian Dojo still had considerable strength to continue competing with him.

Although Xu Yang is only in the fake elixir realm, his soul power and mental power have far exceeded that of ordinary Yuanhun realm monks. This Liu Haiyu is one of the most powerful True Alchemy Realm monks Xu Yang has ever seen.

After the move was completed, the two of them did not move even half a step, still standing face to face. From top to bottom, there is not a single grain of sand on their clothes, or even on the soles of their shoes.

Under the blue sky, by the sea.

One dressed in blue and the other in green, dotted on the golden beach, like two strange flowers blooming with their own colors.

"It's just a tie, it's too boring. Disciple, I must slap this kid in the face next time. I'd better go to bed." Gui Gu Yeyan's voice came from the Ghost Wood Waist Pendant on Xu Yang's waist again.

Guigu Yeyan was just a soul and spent most of his time in a dormant state. When he saw the two stopped fighting, he felt bored and went back to his youthful dreams.

"Fellow Daoist Xu, according to our previous agreement, I can tell you the origin of the foreigner." Liu Haiyu's tone was much more polite than before.

The title "fellow Taoist" is generally used between cultivators with a normal relationship and no hostility. At least Liu Haiyu did not regard Xu Yang as an enemy.

"Fellow Daoist Liu, please speak." Xu Yang also replied.

"That foreigner is the leader of the Shark Tooth Clan on this island, and his name is Sharlong. Your missing senior brother was probably killed by him. Not long ago, I found a trace of residual ghost cultivator on his body. The soul must be what your senior brother left behind. I had a brief fight with him, so I was stopped by you here."

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Liu, for informing me of the details."

"Can I ask, what grudge does your senior brother have against the Shark Tooth Clan? He was killed by that Shark Dragon."

"The thing is like this..." Xu Yang sent himself here from the Tiangui Sect to perform a mission, and what he later learned about in Yuanbei Town, as well as the situation when he came to this island to find his abducted senior brother Li Zhi and the fishermen. illustrate.

When he heard that dozens of ordinary fishermen were detained on the island, Liu Haiyu frowned and blamed himself: "I see, it seems that I rescued the wrong shark face before, and this person was stunned by hatred. He lost his mind and forcibly absorbed other people's souls, causing many lives to fall into the trap. It was his own fault."

Thinking of this, Liu Haiyu said: "To be honest, I helped the foreigner once before and pulled him back from his obsession. I didn't expect that he would detain ordinary fishermen before. I was the one who accidentally saved him. Although I don’t like dealing with ghosts, I would like to make up for it by going with you to rescue the trapped fishermen this time.”

"Fellow Daoist Liu is willing to tell the truth and lend a helping hand to rescue the fisherman. It is indeed the behavior of a gentleman. It seems that Taoist disciples are sensible. As a disciple of the Ghost Sect, of course I cannot lag behind. When I go, saving people comes first, revenge comes second. "Xu Yang replied.

The two people who had just had a fierce fight quickly reached an agreement on rescuing the fishermen, and decided to go to the Shark Tooth Clan to rescue people together.

There is an unwritten rule in the world of cultivation. Not only will the cultivation sect not easily disturb the lives of mortals, but they are also willing to help when mortals within their sphere of influence are in danger. After all, whether it is a cultivation family that has been passed down for hundreds of years or a sect that has been passed down for thousands of years, most of the ancestors of the disciples are mortals with spiritual veins. Relatively speaking, after all, only a few are inherited from the ancient cultivation clans.

Mortals are the lowest end of the pyramid structure of this world. They are numerous and are the true foundation of the existence of the entire world.

The world of cultivation fully releases its goodwill to the mortal world and passes on its beliefs to mortals, making its beliefs more widespread in this world. But the cultivation sects are not so polite. For their different beliefs or interests, they often fight and even destroy the sect. Just like the Tiangui Sect, it was not originally the largest ghost sect in the Zhongyuan Realm. After successively annihilating and annexing the Qinggui Sect, the Three Souls Sect and other ghost sects achieved their current status.

In the mortal world, most of the sects in the world of cultivation have great respect, choose their same beliefs, and rely on their protection. But for the sake of territory and interests, mortal countries often fight with each other. During the war, there were many bloody incidents of massacre of cities and annihilation of countries.

The world is so strange.

…

The two of them searched all the way, and after a short while, an open land appeared in front of them.

Numerous houses of various sizes, built of gray-white stone, are located on higher ground in this open land, forming a small village.

At the gate of the village, there stands a three-foot-tall blue rock, on which is carved a pattern of a wagging, angry, and leaping shark.

"Look at the shark totem on the bluestone. This should be one of the residences of the Shark Tooth Clan. Let's go in and take a look. Maybe there will be clues." Xu Yang suggested.

Liu Haiyu nodded but did not answer.

Xu Yang didn't mind either. Along the way, he got used to Liu Haiyu's way of answering questions with a nod. After all, the two have different beliefs, so being friends cannot be forced.

The two of them cast spells to hide themselves.

Xu Yang recited the magic formula silently, and the red spiritual flames on his body covered his figure. Immediately, the color of the flame quickly became lighter, red...light red...grey...white, until it was transparent. Xu Yang's figure also became transparent.

Liu Haiyu made a secret with one hand, using his fingertips as a pen to draw an aqua-blue Taoist talisman in the void in front of him.

Then, he spit out a breath of essence towards the Taoist Talisman. The Taoist talisman trembled and turned into transparent water. At the same time, his figure also became blurred, gradually turning into a transparent body of water and gradually disappearing.

What they each used was just a high-level deception, but in fact, the main body did not disappear. It's just that it's difficult for ordinary people or monks with lower cultivation levels to detect their existence.

This blinding method requires strong mental power to control, but it is easy for both of them.

Enter the small village.

What comes into view is the scene of an ordinary fishing village.

In the open space in front of the house, several women whose skin was dark and rough blown by the sea breeze were sitting around, holding needle-shaped shuttles made of fish bones in their hands, weaving and repairing fine linen fishing nets.

They were working and chatting. Except for the different styles of clothes from those on the mainland, their appearance was the same as that of ordinary people on the mainland.

"The number of fish in the sea has suddenly decreased in recent months, and we don't know when it will recover. If this continues, it will be a problem for everyone to have enough to eat."

"Some people say that a sea monster came into the sea and scared away the fish. I don't know if it's true or not."

"I heard that the clan leader and tribal elders are thinking of a solution. I believe it will be solved soon."

At this time, three childish children ran towards here while chasing and playing.

"A few naughty ones, while playing, accidentally stepped on the fishing net." One of the women urged loudly.

Several children dispersed and ran to the other side to play.
