Chapter 422: Using Heads to Build a Jingguan

There was no blade to respond. All the righteous people fled in all directions to avoid this pit of right and wrong, the Soul-Trapped Cave. Among them was an immortal called Tan Shou. Although he was from the righteous path like other immortals, his hands were not clean. Or it could be said that all the righteous people just had a good name and did not commit many sins of killing. They also practiced external skills diligently to gain merits and luck, so their karma was not obvious. In fact, all the immortals who practiced cultivation had subordinates who left behind mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

Compared with other people, Tan Shou has another flaw. Although he has entered the right path, he is vindictive by nature. If someone offends him, he will go to the door and kill them all. He will not stop until he has slaughtered everyone. This is not a problem, as everyone knows the principle of cutting the grass at its roots. The only problem is that his supernatural powers are so powerful that once they are activated, everything within a thousand miles will be controlled by him, and no matter whether they are birds, beasts or mortals, they will be killed together.

It's nothing more than paying more silver, which is considered a mistake. As for the family being together and reunited in the underworld, no one will come to complain or cry out for injustice, so naturally, all grudges will be forgotten and the world will be at peace from then on.

But there was no victim to look for him, as the heaven had eyes. He kept all the sins in his mind and accumulated countless karma. However, Tan Shou also practiced external skills, and was protected by destiny, so no calamity came to seek revenge on him.

Now Youquan was full of evil fire and spewing out lotus flowers. When Tan Shou saw it, he felt the rage boiling in his heart and an indescribable sense of anxiety. When he exhaled again, black smoke and red fire came out of his seven orifices, and the immortal's soul was burned to ashes.

The karmic fire will avenge the sins of this life, and the red lotus will bloom from the soul.

Rays of red devil fire rolled over Tan Shou's body, instantly burning his soul to ashes, leaving only an empty shell staggering and falling with sword light. This fire came from his heart, burning karma. Even if he had a hundred tricks and the ability to become an immortal, it would be nothing more than ashes.

Seeing that Tan Shou was attacked silently, his soul was destroyed, and even his body was gradually shriveled up under the fire, turning into ashes and floating in the air, all the righteous people hurriedly used their magical powers to move away.

"My fellow Taoists, if there are any bad consequences that have not been eliminated, and whose external skills have not yet eliminated their karma, please stay away immediately!"

With a loud roar, Yuan Li lifted up the golden pagoda to protect his body. He had profound cultivation and outstanding external skills, so they were not too afraid of his magic fire. As for the others...

He turned around and saw that some of his fellow Taoists were contaminated by the aura of karmic fire, their karma was burning, and their souls were scorched. With a moment of helplessness, he cut off his own Taoism and part of his soul. The spiritual light above his head dropped a lot. It can be said that he was decisive.

However, the Red Lotus Karma Fire was not such a simple thing. The man chopped off his soul and vomited several liters of blood. His cultivation declined again and again and he almost fell to the level of a scattered immortal. The soul is the spirit of an immortal. If the body is abandoned, the person can still live, but if the soul is destroyed, the person will be reborn early. He acted like he was trying to survive by cutting off his tail but he almost lost his life.

Before he could catch his breath, wisps of red silk gathered together, and when the two touched, a spark was emitted, which then quietly burned on the remaining soul. The flying sword of the righteous monk fell, and he sat down on the ground. Balls of fire came out from his five holes and seven orifices and surrounded him. A figure half lying on the ground was reflected in the rolling fire cloud, as if his body was burning and he was cremated in the fire.

"Friend Li..."

Yuan Li sighed and said to Taoist Chong Xian beside him: "The Red Lotus Karma Fire was born, and several Taoist friends were afflicted. How could the demon Youquan have such magical powers? We had never seen him use them hundreds of years ago, otherwise the battle between good and evil might not have gone smoothly."

Master Chongxian frowned and said, "Youquan has been missing for several years. He should be practicing the True Fire Divine Power. However, it takes a lot of effort to practice this Divine Power. How can it be accomplished in several years?"

Yuan Li pushed the golden pagoda towards Youquan with a bitter face, trying to gather his scattered anger: "The demonic disaster has appeared in the world and there is no time to ease it. I beg you to help me!"

Now Youquan's corpse is wrapped in karmic fire, with smoke and fire clouds falling down. His soul is shrunken in his body, watching the fire roaming around. How could Youquan be a good man? He is an old devil who has committed ten unforgivable crimes. To him, the phrase "stop a crying child" is already a compliment. When the devil's power is at its peak, even those who walk on the righteous path will be scared awake by it in the middle of the night!

He had never done any good deeds in his life, and had accumulated countless karma and bad karma. However, the red lotus fire only burned his body, and turned a blind eye to his soul that was entangled in heinous sins and karma, and did not harm him in the slightest.

Youquan's soul looked at Chihuo who was walking away. He had kept silent about the matter of resurrection before, but in fact he had explored many mysteries of his iron corpse. It contained the power of creation of flesh and blood, the secrets of magic and supernatural powers. If one of them was released to the outside world, people would be able to comprehend the magic methods such as the Blood Demon Iron Corpse Body Refining, the Magic Insect Gu Body, and the Cold Moon Frozen Soul Magic.

However, the numerous magical powers combined together seemed to be locked and integrated into one, and there were not many mysteries to be solved. Even with Youquan's eyesight, he could not discover any of them.

Now, under the red lotus fire, most of the corpse was burned, leaving only a stinking skin bag, which was filled with fire. The magical powers and secret techniques were also unlocked and appeared in front of Youquan one by one.

"Nowadays, such magical powers are unheard of. After participating in it today, I know that the magic path is vast."

Youquan was watching with fascination, not even caring about the pain of being burned by the fire. As he was watching, red flames surged in his body, a blood-red lotus blossomed, and a figure walked out of his heart.

"Demon Ancestor Youquan, long time no see."

Fengdu said with a smile, as if he was visiting a good friend he hadn't seen for a long time.

Youquan glanced at him and refused to pay any attention to him, concentrating on comprehending the wonders of the body.

"What did Fengdu do wrong to deserve the Demon Ancestor's disdain and the fact that he wouldn't even look at me?" Fengdu asked.

Youquan snorted coldly: "Before, I just thought you were joking, but in fact, the Demon Lord sent down from heaven to kill for heaven and divide the fate of the demon path with me is also planning a great cause."

“Now it seems that you have great ambitions,” Youquan’s eyes moved, “This corpse contains magic, which is rare in my life. Blood essence, demonic energy, Yin force, and the red lotus karma fire that you brought with my help. Don’t tell me that you did all this just for a little disaster.”

"Of course it's for that catastrophe. After going through many great catastrophes in the world, it's nothing more than the decline of Taoism and the rise of demons, and the rise of Buddhism. It's just that these three schools are fighting for supremacy, which makes it a bit desolate, and the immortals in the sky are laughing at it." Fengdu said with a smile.

Youquan turned back suddenly: "Your target is the immortals in the sky!"

Fengdu clapped his hands: "The Demon Ancestor is very understanding. You said that after all the fighting, only a few people became immortals in the end, occupying hundreds of years of luck. The immortals used magic weapons to cut off the cause and effect, and lived freely in the sky, watching the waves of the mortal world. Now that the calamity has come, they still want to come down to the mortal world to intervene in the operation of the calamity. It is really hard work and great achievements. It is sigh-worthy."

He looked compassionate: "I have only done good deeds in my life. Seeing the immortals going back and forth between heaven and earth many times and rolling down to the mortal world, they must be very tired. I couldn't help but feel pity for them. I asked them to play in the mortal world for a while, so that they could stop traveling back and forth."

Youquan remained silent. Fengdu came to his side. The two of them stood side by side and said, "Youquan Demon Ancestor has been fighting for the world for hundreds of years, but in the end, isn't he still regarded as a pawn in the overall situation of the mortal world? In this mortal world, without the immortals in heaven, doesn't the Demon Ancestor feel a little lonely?"

A strange laugh like a night owl came, and Youquan grinned: "What you said is quite interesting. Even an old devil like me is tempted by you. Well, I am willing to be a chess piece for you and stand on tiptoe. Just tell me how to do it."

After saying this, he dispersed all his magical powers. Youquan had been revived for ten years, and he had laid countless secret plans. He had accumulated a lot of puppets, even those for fostering souls and taking over other people's bodies. He was just waiting for the right opportunity to escape from this zombie body and return to the world. But now they were destroyed by his own hands.

Fengdu sighed, "The spirit of the Demon Ancestor is indeed extraordinary. Although my plan is not perfect and does not involve any tricks, it is a step-by-step plan. However, there is no place for the Demon Ancestor in it."

He turned to look at Youquan: "I came here just to see an old friend." He paused and said, "I came to see the Demon Ancestor off." Youquan was stunned, then smiled and nodded: "You are so deceptive and ruthless. I am willing to be a chess piece, but you can also abandon me at will. As the Demon Lord sent from heaven, it is also my destiny to have you as the leader of the revival of the Demon Dao."

Fengdu looked at him and suddenly smiled, stretched out his finger and pointed, and the red lotus fire that harmed nothing rushed towards Youquan and burned him to ashes.

"When the time comes, heaven and earth will work together, and heroes cannot be free. You are always trapped in cause and effect, under the fate, and have never been free for a moment."

"Killing on behalf of God? The devil sent from heaven? I was born a devil, I should follow my heart and mind, how can it be determined by heaven? My nature is to kill, cause and effect is determined by heaven, I will kill it with one sword."

"I am the Devil King Xiaoyao, and I will kill the Lord of Tribulation!"

At the same time, outside of Youquan's body, circles of karmic fire surrounded him. Yuanli and his group came with the golden pagoda to suppress him, but they saw that Youquan did not move and just stood quietly in the air.

"My fellow Taoists, take advantage of the changes in the demon's body and follow me to fight him. If there is any success, it will be the first merit of Daoxing."

Yuan Li shouted, and the golden pagoda rose into the air to cover Youquan, intending to use the force of suppression to force out the red lotus fire. The others also held talismans and precious scrolls, and with the sound of swords, they slashed at the demon.

Suddenly, Youquan's body exploded violently, and a boundless sea of ​​fire rushed straight into the sky. Red flames and smoke crisscrossed in all directions, flowing continuously, like a huge blooming fire lotus.

A blood-red sword hit the flying golden pagoda, and before it could show its magical power, it was knocked back. Then a sword light rose up and cut off the flying sword talisman.

Everyone was shocked and looked up, only to see a man walking in the air, with fire lotuses everywhere. He was not burned by the karmic fire at all, and there were fire dragons protecting him at his sides. He was strolling leisurely in the huge fire lotus, looking very comfortable.

Red smoke and karmic fire made him look red, with red lotus fire and red flame cloud as a belt. People could not see the face of the person in the fire. They only saw that person gently turned his hand, and the body of Youquan standing in the air was consumed by the fire, leaving only an empty human skin.

"I am a poor Taoist from Fengdu, and I have come here specially to practice the righteous way."

The man put the leather bag into his treasure bag, looked at everyone, and spoke.

Yuan Li looked towards Fengdu, holding the golden pagoda in his hand. The sword not only cut back the pagoda, but also a demonic sword intent followed it, climbing up along the magic weapon towards his own soul, fighting endlessly with his heart.

"Great demon!"

"I am Yuanli, a humble Taoist. Nice to meet you, Taoist friend from Fengdu. I wonder where you are from, but why haven't you heard of your name?"

Fengdu glanced at the crowd and said, "As a small cultivator in the mountains who doesn't walk around in the mortal world, naturally he has no reputation. Compared with the righteous immortals, he is far inferior."

Seeing that the conversation had eased somewhat, Yuan Li was about to probe to find out the identity of this demon, when he heard Feng Du continue to say: "But from now on, you still need to remember this name."

After saying that, he shook the spirit sword, and a sword light flew out towards the crowd. Some righteous people raised their swords to respond, but they did not expect that the sword light had another change, and it split into two in an instant. After dealing with one, there were still dozens of them. He was not careful and was hit by one, and most of his blood essence was drained away. After being hit by two more, his flesh and body dried up and he was almost inhuman.

"Since ancient times, good and evil cannot coexist. I am the Demon Lord. Please follow me, fellow Taoists."

Fengdu laughed loudly, and the flying sword flashed with a bloody light and flew out of his hand. Among all the weapons in the world, this sword is the most tricky. The sword light pierces people's hearts and sucks their blood. After wandering around for a while, there are a few more mummies, and there is devilish energy swirling above them. The righteous immortals only need to use magic weapons to hit them a few times, and there is devilish sound in their ears, and there is endless noise.

In addition to fighting with the sword, you also have to fight with the demon in your heart. If you are not careful, the demon will take advantage of you and attack the people around you like a madman.

Yuan Li let go of the golden pagoda and held up the sword. This sword was called the Sword of Killing Evils and Impelling Demons. It was the secret treasure of the Taiqing Sect. It was forged with the essence of the five elements and the innate energy, and it had brought hatred upon countless demons and monsters.

As the sword came out, it turned into a green rainbow, competing with the blood-colored sword light. The battle continued. Fengdu stood with his hands behind his back: "This battle is not for killing." He glanced at the crowd, "Only half of the Taoist friends can stay to build a Jingguan. If the Jingguan is too small, it will lose the dignity of Fengdu."

"The devil should stop being so arrogant!"

Yuan Li roared, exerting all his life's strength to the utmost, and his sword became more and more fierce, but the blood light was not to be trifled with, and it did not stop even after fighting for dozens of rounds.

Fengdu shook his head and suddenly smiled: "There is only the righteous path, but no evil path. Isn't it lonely? You have been watching for a long time, why don't you come out for a while?"

After he finished speaking, a bright sword light came out from his sleeves, dim and extremely. As soon as it came out, the sword light split into thousands of naked strips, sweeping around.

As he glanced around, some people jumped out from all directions. All of them were ugly and fierce. Some had red eyebrows and slanted eyes, green beards and red lips. The women who had some looks were half-naked, with charming bodies weighing a hundred pounds, like the enchanting fairies.

A group of demons were forced out by the sword light, all of them with raised eyebrows and eyes wide open. The emergence of Youquan was so grand that it not only attracted the attention of the righteous, but also attracted a group of demons and monsters. They were hiding on the sidelines watching the fight between the righteous and Youquan, ready to make a move if necessary and disrupt the plans of the righteous.

Now that they were chopped out one by one by Fengdu, how could they have a good face? One of the triangular-eyed ones sneered a few times: "That Taoist, you said you are a demon, but have you ever called yourself a demon in front of us? You are the demon lord, but you still have to ask us if we agree or not!"

Fengdu looked up and glanced at him, only to see that he was filled with murderous aura and heinous crimes. He was full of evil energy and karma, and looked like he was about to fall into disaster and was seeking death.

"You little devil, when you saw the ancestor, instead of asking him to kneel three times and kowtow nine times to thank him for his life, you shouted here. You deserve to be killed!"

He stretched out his hand and pointed, the Red Lotus Karma Fire connected with the demon's karma, and the whole thing turned into a torch, and disappeared into ashes. The demons nearby who were unable to stop him all dodged, thinking inwardly: "Don't you see that the righteous will flee when they see the Red Lotus Fire? Why are you going up to provoke this vicious man?"

Before he could think of anything, he saw Fengdu stretching out his hand, pretending to calculate the secrets of the universe, and then pretending to be surprised and said: "My fellow demons, I have calculated with my fingers, and you are all doomed to die!"

After saying that, the dark sword light turned into thousands of silk threads and rushed towards the Demonic Path.
