Volume 1: The Rise of Ten Thousand Demons - Chapter 1: Competition

　　There were two people standing on the square competition platform with a radius of ten feet. The monk in gray robes was about 30 years old, about eight feet tall, with a round face, thick eyebrows, and eyes that seemed to be open and closed. He looked very rough, but gave people a very solemn feeling. The person opposite him was wearing a tight short green outfit, with sword-like eyebrows and a square face. He was an extremely handsome young man.

　　With a "ding" sound, a strong and powerful voice said: "The competition begins."

　　There was a row of seats next to the square competition platform, with eight people sitting on them. The two in the middle were wearing red monk robes, squinting their eyes, as if they were in a trance. The six people next to them were wearing yellow monk robes, all quietly looking at the two people on the competition platform. Behind the eight people stood their disciples, about two hundred people in total, all talking at once, but from the tone of their conversation, they were clearly divided into two groups.

　　"Brother Zhineng will definitely win. Apart from anything else, he has already practiced the Dead Wood Zen to the fifth level. No one in the Zhi generation can defeat him!"

　　"Not necessarily. Although Junior Brother Qingfeng is young, he is extremely talented. Even the Sect Master said that he has a good chance this time."

　　"Really? Then this competition will definitely be exciting!"

　　"Hey, why are you standing there for so long without taking any action?"...

　　While everyone was talking about this, Zhineng, who had his eyes slightly closed, suddenly opened them wide, and his powerful voice spread out, "Amitabha! Junior Brother Qingfeng, please!"

　　When everyone saw that one of them finally took action, they all quieted down and watched intently the competition between the two young masters of Zen and Tantric Buddhism.

　　"Brother Zhineng, please!" Li Qingfeng smiled, his childish face full of excitement, and he seemed to be impatient.

　　There was no expression on Zhineng's face. He was neither anxious nor impatient, nor worried nor happy. The true essence of Buddhism continued to flow into the Buddhist beads in his hand. The golden light from the Buddhist beads gradually formed a golden ball, shining brightly, and rushed towards Li Qingfeng. Li Qingfeng saw that the golden ball was coming fiercely, so he did not dare to be arrogant. He connected the Vajra Seal and the Lotus Seal with his hands, and turned the Immovable Cross Seal to form a cross shape in the air. Then the golden light in his hand surged, and the cross shape was waved by Li Qingfeng, and the blazing flame rushed towards the golden ball like a meteor.

　　Bang! With a loud bang, the golden ball and the cross collided in the air and suddenly exploded. With a muffled bang, the onlookers felt a heat wave coming towards them with great force. A yellow-robed monk sitting among the eight people quickly flew up and covered his body with air to defend himself so as not to hurt the people behind him.

　　The two men released several streams of true energy in succession, which collided in the air. The powerful energy continued to impact the guardrails around the competition stage. Finally, a pillar with a diameter of about a foot could not withstand it and died gloriously. The disciples below the stage opened their eyes wide in surprise, staring at the competition stage intently.

　　After several competitions, the two were evenly matched.

　　Li Qingfeng was secretly shocked, knowing that his cultivation was still slightly inferior to that of Senior Brother Zhineng. After a few rounds of competition, although on the surface they seemed evenly matched, he knew his own situation. The violent churning of blood and qi in his sea of qi was a sign of insufficient true qi, while Zhineng seemed to have no reaction at all, so it seemed that he could not fight hard.

　　Zhineng's heart was also slightly moved, and he no longer hesitated. He placed his hands in front of his chest, palms facing each other, and used the 100% Buddhist Qi. His red monk robe suddenly swelled up as if it was inflated, making a "chi chi" sound. As Zhineng began to gather the 100% Zen power, the golden light emitted by the Buddhist beads became dazzling, condensing into a round golden light ball, and a powerful aura instantly filled the entire competition field.

　　Seeing that his intelligence was so profound, Li Qingfeng was very anxious and hurriedly threw a small golden sword into the air. The golden sword grew several times larger in an instant when it met the wind, and slowly rotated in the air, shining with golden light. Seeing this, Li Qingfeng shouted, raised his finger and shot out a stream of true energy to hit the golden sword, but saw that the golden sword suddenly changed, and violently shot out a golden light brighter than the sun.

　　For a moment, everyone felt as if they were being pricked by a needle, and dared not look at the golden sword. After the golden light dissipated, everyone dared to look up, and saw that the small golden sword had turned into a golden long sword about five feet long, and the sword body had a faint Buddha light emitting.

　　Only the eight people sitting in the front row were not afraid of the strong light, and the two people in the middle also watched carefully.

　　“Tianmu, you’ve invested a lot this time. You’ve also passed the [Burning Lamp Sword] to Qingfeng. It looks like you’re going to win this competition.” said the slightly fat monk in red on the left.

　　"Haha, Brother Tianxin, you Zen Buddhists have won five times in a row for fifteen years. It's time for us Tantric Buddhists to go into the cave and practice for three years." Tianmu said with a smile.

　　“Don’t worry, Junior Brother Qingfeng’s true energy seems to be a little insufficient. If the two of them fight with all their strength, it is still hard to predict who will win.” Tianxin’s eyes were as fast as lightning. He had already seen that Zhineng’s cultivation was higher. However, Li Qingfeng had a magic weapon in his hand, so the outcome was hard to predict at this time.

　　Seeing that the [Burning Lamp Sword] was completed, Li Qingfeng could not help but smile slightly. He made seals with his hands one after another, and the golden sword body was hidden in the light. There was only a golden light that was so blinding that it was difficult to open one's eyes. Even Tian Xin showed a look of surprise, and everyone was stunned. Only the leader of the Tantric Buddhism, Tian Mu, had a look of satisfaction on his face.

　　Tianxin saw it clearly, because he knew that the [Burning Lamp Sword] was Tianmu's famous magic weapon. With the help of this magic weapon, Li Qingfeng's strength was greatly improved.

　　The intelligent being in the competition field seemed to have sensed the dangerous aura. At this moment, his withered wood Zen power had not yet been fully activated. He became anxious, and emanated more energy from his body. Slowly, the golden ball of light began to emit strong light in all directions like a scorching sun.

　　Seeing the intelligent golden light ball gradually taking shape, Li Qing did not dare to delay. He kept changing hand seals with his hands, continuously adding magic power to the [Burning Lamp Sword]. At this time, the sword body was no longer visible, and raging fires were burning around the light. The fiery power of the [Burning Lamp Sword] had been stimulated.

　　The people around the stands couldn't help but change their expressions. Two yellow-robed monks in the front row flew out and set up another defense outside the competition arena.

　　There was silence all around. Suddenly, a flash of lightning streaked across the sky, as if a fuse had been lit. At this moment, Li Qingfeng's [Lantern Sword] slowly moved towards Zhineng's head with a rumbling sound, and Zhineng also rapidly urged the golden ball of light in his hand to shoot into the air.

　　I saw a blazing fire and a golden ball of light gradually approaching. The sky above the entire competition stage was filled with golden light. Even the steaming mist and the clouds floating in the distant sky seemed to be rimmed with gold, becoming extremely gorgeous.

　　Tian Xin was a little nervous at this time. He saw that he was already at a disadvantage in this battle because Li Qingfeng had a [Ran Deng Sword] in his hand.

　　The Burning Lamp Sword and the golden light ball have already met.

　　The stage and the audience were completely silent, so quiet that it was a little scary. Everyone's heart was in their throat, as if the one competing in the arena was not someone else but themselves. Everyone was expecting their own people to win.

　　There was a loud bang, and the golden sword collided with the golden ball, emitting a dazzling and brilliant light. For a moment, the sun and the moon lost their light. The people around felt a strong heat wave coming towards them, and they all retreated. If it were not for the defensive barrier that had been set up long ago, the disciples standing nearby would have been injured.

　　Li Qingfeng's clothes were incomplete, and there was a streak of blood at the corner of his mouth. He looked very embarrassed. He barely supported his body and stood with an excited expression on his face.

　　Zhineng's condition was even worse. His monk robe was shattered into pieces, revealing the short monk's robe underneath. Pieces of cloth were flying all over the sky. His eyes were red. He sat on the ground, breathing heavily, his face covered with mud, and it seemed that he was unable to stand up.

　　With the sound of a long and dull bell, the competition was over.

　　"The Tantric disciple Li Qingfeng wins," said the yellow-robed monk.

　　"That was a close call. Senior Brother Zhineng's skills are so profound. I almost couldn't handle it." Li Qingfeng said to Zhineng with a grin.

　　Zhineng said with some difficulty: "I will also refine a powerful magic weapon later, and then we can compete again." He forgot that this [Lan Deng Sword] is one of the three great magic weapons of Tantric Buddhism and can be cultivated at will. The Zen disciples nearby hurriedly helped Zhineng back to the Zen temple.

　　"Junior Brother Qingfeng won, Junior Brother Qingfeng won..." The disciples of the Tantric sect had already shouted loudly, and rushed to the competition venue, surrounding Qingfeng Li and talking at once. A few young disciples also got excited, and lifted Qingfeng Li high up and threw him up a few times.

　　"Ouch... Junior brothers, please stop it." Li Qingfeng cried out with a bitter face. He had just fought a hard battle with Zhineng, and his surface injuries were not serious, but his meridians seemed to be about to break. The torment from these junior brothers made the pain even more unbearable.

　　When these young Tantric disciples saw Li Qingfeng's painful expression, they looked at each other, made faces and ran away.

　　"Once I recover from my injuries, none of you will be able to escape." Li Qingfeng had no choice but to find a way out.

　　The other fellow disciples also laughed when they saw this. It seemed that Li Qingfeng was very popular and all the fellow disciples liked him very much.

　　“Haha, Qingfeng, you didn’t let your master down.” Tantric sect leader Tianmu and Zen sect leader Tianxin walked to the stage, followed by several monks in yellow robes.

　　PS: It is not easy to write a new book, I hope everyone supports it. If you think it is okay after reading it, please collect it and add it to your bookshelf. Shouma guarantees that the following plots will be even more exciting. The battle between immortals and demons, the battle between Buddhas and demons, where will the cultivation world go, what the immortal world thinks, what the demon world intends, and what the ghost realm is plotting, everything is in Tianjian Zhumolu.

　　Shouma promises that for every ten collections, one chapter will be published, and so on. If the number of collections increases by one hundred per day, Shouma will publish ten chapters. Do you want to see Shouma publish? Brothers and sisters, it's up to you!

　　3. Volume 1: The Birth of Ten Thousand Demons - Chapter 2: Lingtian Heart Technique (Part 1)

　　Lingyuan Mountain has beautiful scenery and pleasant climate. The mountain stretches for 800 miles. Its main peak, Lingyuan Peak, has absorbed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and is famous for its beautiful scenery, strange peaks and beautiful water. Later, Lingyuan Mountain, Tianlu Peak and Yunwu Mountain were called the three great strange mountains in Zhongzhou by the world.

　　The famous Pure Land Sect in Zhongzhou is located on Lingyuan Peak. It is said that 800 years ago, a spiritual master traveled here and saw that this mountain was steep and rugged, with beautiful scenery and a rare blessed land. Lingyuan Peak was the place where the spiritual veins were located, so he founded the Pure Land Sect. The master was the founder of the Pure Land Sect, Master Huideng. With the help of the rare spiritual energy on Lingyuan Peak and the Jade Crystal Spring in Qingyun Cave, he practiced hard and finally broke through the secular world and became an immortal, leaving behind a book called "Lingtian Heart Sutra".

　　Afterwards, the Pure Land Sect produced many talented people. When the Pure Land Sect reached its peak 300 years after its founding, a brilliant and outstanding figure named Baoya emerged. He was the last disciple of the tenth-generation leader of the Pure Land Sect, Tianlingzi, who was accepted when he was traveling. After Baoya entered the sect, he understood all the Zen and Buddhist teachings taught by Tianlingzi in just five years, and became the best among all the disciples. After another ten years, his practice surpassed Tianlingzi, and he was able to practice the "Lingtian Heart Method" that no one had been able to practice since the founder "Hui Deng". Tianlingzi then passed the position of the leader of the sect to Baoya, and he went out to travel and practice. When Baoya was fifty years old, he had made great progress in practicing the Lingtian Heart Method. He was admired by the practitioners in Central Continent for a time, making the "Pure Land Sect" the largest sect of practitioners. There were many masters under his tutelage, and there were even more than 100,000 disciples. However, Baoya's Lingtian Heart Method was never perfected, so he passed the position of sect leader to the twelfth generation sect leader Wuxin and went out to travel. He accidentally opened the passage to the Demon Realm, allowing the three great demon kings of the Demon Realm to escape. He finally sealed the three great demon kings in the magic array behind the Lingyuan Temple, but the Pure Land Sect also suffered heavy casualties, and it never recovered and declined. Baoya also disappeared because he was too ashamed to face his disciples.

　　After this battle, most of the masters of the Pure Land Sect died, and no one was able to practice the Lingtian Heart Method. The Pure Land Sect was divided into two sects, the "Zen Sect" and the "Tantra Sect", with different practices. The Zen Sect focused on practicing Zen and refining magic weapons, while the Tantra Sect practiced Qi with hand seals combined with footwork. Afterwards, the strength of the cultivation world was greatly weakened, and gradually faded out of the world. Most of them chose the sacred mountain blessed land to practice secretly, unknown to the world. The Pure Land Sect has been passed down to the 17th generation.

　　The name of Pure Land Buddhism has always been unknown to outsiders. People only know about Lingyuan Temple, which is built on the top of Tianyuan Peak, but they don’t know that Pure Land Buddhism is practiced in Lingyuan Temple. Lingyuan Temple covers an area of about 100 acres. There is only a bluestone path winding up from the bottom of the mountain. It is surrounded by green mist and the vision cannot reach far.

　　After taking the elixir, Li Qingfeng quickly recovered his true energy and walked towards the main hall at a rapid pace.

　　"Alas"

　　Li Qingfeng accidentally saw the snow on the top of Lingyuan Peak outside the temple, and couldn't help but feel very strange. The scene outside the temple can often be seen, but why does it feel a little special today? In the past, under the influence of the barrier, the temple was surrounded by green mist and the vision could not reach far, but now he can see the snow on the top of the peak. Is there something wrong with the barrier? It's impossible. This barrier was set up by the founder before he ascended to heaven, and it has been improved many times since then. Now there are three layers of barriers inside and outside, namely the green mist barrier, the living forest barrier and the water curtain barrier. Is there something wrong...

　　Li Qingfeng walked while thinking, and arrived in front of the majestic hall. He saw the door was wide open, and there was plenty of light inside. Master Huideng was enshrined there, and the atmosphere was solemn.

　　In front of the altar, dozens of people were sitting, wearing monk robes and lay clothes. On the left, the Zen disciples were wearing monk robes; on the right, the Tantric disciples were wearing monk robes and lay clothes. Tantric disciples did not require their clothes. In fact, the practice of Buddhism focuses on the mind. If you have Buddha in your heart, it doesn't matter what you wear or eat. Of course, Buddhists pay attention to plain tea and light meals, mainly because they are afraid that practitioners will indulge in enjoyment, which will affect their practice, but they should not be too obsessed. Zen pays attention to seeing the nature of the mind, while Tantric Buddhism pays attention to the true words and teachings.

　　The two people in the middle are Tianxin and Tianmu, the leaders of the Zen and Esoteric sects. Beside them, sitting in two rows are the elders of the two sects with the character "Miao" in their name, and below them sit the disciples of the character "Tian" in their name.

　　Three hundred years ago, the Pure Land Sect was divided into the Chan Sect and the Esoteric Sect, but the position of the head of the Pure Land Sect has been vacant. All major matters in the sect are decided by the heads of the Chan and Esoteric Sects. A three-year agreement was made, and every three years, each sect would select a disciple to compete. The winner would go to the Pure Land Sect's holy place for practice, the Qingyun Cave, to practice for three years and concentrate on comprehending the Lingtian Heart Method. Those who have achieved success in practicing the Lingtian Heart Method and have good morals and abilities will be appointed as the "Pure Land Sect Head", but for hundreds of years, no one has fully realized the nine-layer realm of the Lingtian Heart Method and practiced the Lingtian Heart Method.

　　Qingfeng Li hurried forward to greet them one by one: "Greetings to the two sect masters, elders, and uncles."

　　Yuanmu, Yuanxin and others smiled and said, "Okay, no need to be so polite." Miaofa and the other six elders also nodded slightly.

　　"Qingfeng, do you know why I called you here? Tianxin is deliberately keeping you in suspense.

　　Without waiting for Li Qingfeng to answer, Tianmu glared at Tianxin and said, "Don't keep us in suspense. It's already this late. Tell him now!"

　　Li Qingfeng thought of the scene he had just seen on the road, and his mind moved: "Uncle Master, what happened to the barrier protecting Lingyuan Temple? I just came from the competition field and felt that there seemed to be something wrong with the Qingwu barrier."

　　Elder Tianxing Miaofa, the head of the Miaozi generation who was sitting in the first seat on the left row, couldn't help but be a little surprised. He opened his slightly closed eyes and glanced at Li Qingfeng. Only the two sect masters and the elders knew about this matter, but Li Qingfeng could see the clues. He was indeed extraordinary.

　　Qingfeng Li thought to himself, "Wow, my great-grandmaster's cultivation is so profound. The light in his eyes is so real that it's intimidating."

　　“Tianxin, just say it directly.” After Elder Tianxing finished his magic, he closed his eyes slightly and stopped talking.

　　"Yes, uncle." Tian Xin replied hurriedly. Elder Tian Xing was skinny and less than six feet tall, but his Buddhist practice was unfathomable. He was the leader of the six elders. In addition, he was stern by nature, so the emperors could not help but feel nervous when they saw him. Li Qingfeng didn't know this, but he didn't care.

　　"This time the six elders came out of seclusion to discuss the matter of the three great demon lords." Tian Xin said.

　　When these words came out, everyone in the Tianzi generation was surprised. Li Qingfeng didn't know this, so he quickly asked, "Uncle Master, what kind of monsters are the three great demon kings, and how powerful are they?

　　"The Three Great Demon Lords are three extremely powerful demon kings in the demon world. Back then, the eleventh generation leader of the Pure Land Sect, Bao Ya, accidentally opened the passage to the demon world, causing these three demon heads to run into the human world and wreak havoc, killing countless lives. Later, the three demon kings were led to Lingyuan Peak and trapped with a magic trap, which allowed the human world to return to peace. However, the Pure Land Sect and the cultivation world also suffered heavy casualties. Bao Ya felt ashamed of the world, and later left the Pure Land Sect and disappeared."

　　"Could it be that the magic trapping formation can no longer trap these three demon kings?" Tian Jing, a Zen master nearby, couldn't help but ask. It seemed that he didn't know the matter either.

　　"That's right. Yesterday, the six elders suddenly felt that the spiritual energy of Lingyuan Peak was fluctuating. The main vein of the Demon-Trapping Array was invaded by the demonic energy. Now the Demon-Trapping Array is completely suppressed by the [Demon-Suppressing Tower]. It can still operate barely, but it will not be able to hold on any longer. Perhaps after a while, the [Demon-Suppressing Tower] will not be able to suppress the three demons. Without the maintenance of spiritual energy, the three-layer barrier is gradually weakening, and the innermost green mist barrier is gradually disappearing. If we can't find out the cause of the spiritual energy fluctuations as soon as possible and trap the three demons, I'm afraid the world will face another catastrophe." Tianxin said worriedly.

　　Except for a few elders and two sect leaders, everyone was stunned after hearing this. The Demon Trapping Formation couldn't even trap the three demon kings!

　　4. Volume 1: The Birth of Ten Thousand Demons - Chapter 3: Lingtian Heart Method Part 2

　　The hall was silent, no one spoke, and everyone was stunned by the news.

　　After a while, Miao Fa broke the silence and said, "We need to guard the magic trapping formation day and night. Each group of seven people from the Tianzi generation will immediately ring the bell to set up the formation if there is any movement in the magic array. We will do our best to trap the three demons. Instruct all disciples in the sect to strengthen their vigilance. I hope we can hold out for a while longer."

　　"Amitabha," everyone responded in unison.

　　"Qingfeng, come here." Miaofa called Li Qingfeng.

　　At this time, there were only six elders and two sect leaders left in the hall.

　　"The Lingtian Heart Method was passed down by our sect's founder. This method has infinite uses and great power, and it points directly to the way of heaven. This method cultivates the way of celestial immortals, which is different from ordinary cultivation methods in the world, most of which cultivate the way of earthly immortals. According to the agreement, you won on behalf of the Tantric Buddhism, and today I will pass on the Fa Xin Fa to you!" Miaofa said slowly, then took out something and handed it to Li Qingfeng.

　　"This is the [Spiritual Heaven Heart Method] left by our ancestor. You must comprehend it well. As for whether you can practice it, it depends on your luck. Tomorrow you will go to Qingyun Cave to practice with all your heart. Don't let your master down."

　　“But, uncle-master, the three great demons are about to appear, and everyone should contribute. I also want to stay here,” Li Qingfeng said hurriedly.

　　"Qingfeng, although your current cultivation level is good among the disciples of the same generation, it is still far from enough. Only by cultivating the Lingtian Heart Method can you be of the greatest help to the master. This is also your fortune and opportunity, but you must not lose the big picture for the small. Hurry up and take over the Lingtian Heart Method." Tianmu said angrily upon seeing this.

　　"These three demons are no trivial matters. Once they appear in the world, it will be difficult to preserve Lingyuan Temple. If you can practice Lingtian Heart Method, it will be the last hope. The time left for us is very limited. You must understand the good intentions of your master." Tianxin said.

　　Li Qingfeng knew that what Uncle Tianxin said was the truth and that it would be useless for him to stay, so he knelt heavily on the ground and said, "My fellow uncles, uncles, and masters, I will practice hard and live up to your expectations." After that, he kowtowed to everyone nine times.

　　Tianmu sighed, and quickly helped Li Qingfeng up. He handed him a magic bag and said, "Inside are the sect tokens for entering the training ground and some magic weapons used by the elders before. You should take them with you. When you leave, you must not mention this to your fellow disciples, so as not to cause panic!"

　　Li Qingfeng took something that looked like a piece of jade and something that looked like a belt. The color of the belt was cobalt blue, not gold, wood, or stone. No one knew what it was made of. The edges had very strange irregular patterns. Looking closely, it looked like it was woven with metal wire. There seemed to be silver stars flashing under the blue. The jade piece was even stranger. There were some strange patterns engraved on it. When he touched it with his hand, he felt that it contained a huge amount of energy.

　　Li Qingfeng showed surprise on his face. The skills he practiced before were all recorded on paper, but the Lingtian Heart Skill was recorded on jade talismans!

　　"The Lingtian Heart Method is stored in this [Spiritual Consciousness Plate]. You need to use your spiritual consciousness to feel it, because the Lingtian Heart Method is different from previous skills and cannot be described in words. Our ancestors used the supreme Buddhist Dharma to carve this magical skill into this [Spiritual Consciousness Plate] with their spiritual thoughts. We generally call it the [Jade Record Talisman]. The storage belt is used in the same way. It is also controlled by spiritual consciousness. You can give it a try." Tianmu said.

　　Li Qingfeng put on the belt and immediately understood the secret. It seemed to be a special formation set up with the help of objects by using Buddhism. The formation space can change with the user's skill. Once you understand these principles, it will be easy to use. A string of Buddhist beads appeared in his hand, disappeared, and a night-shining pearl as big as an egg appeared. He couldn't help but shout happily: "There are so many things in here, ah, this is the Lingju Dan, this is the five-color Zen seat, this, this is... it's the [Five Yang Dharma Ring]!" The things in Li Qingfeng's hand appeared and disappeared.

　　Yuan Mu said, "This Nalan belt was obtained by me accidentally. The space inside can become larger as the wearer's skill level increases. Some of the things inside belong to me. Some of them were in this belt back then. I can't use them now. Take it out and look at it slowly. Now look at the Jade Record Talisman."

　　Li Qingfeng got these two strange magic weapons at once, and curiosity got the better of him.

　　Li Qingfeng probed his consciousness into the Jade Record Talisman. He felt a huge platform in the huge space in front of him, with nine groups of silver mist from left to right. When he arrived in front of the first group of silver mist, his consciousness immediately entered the group of silver mist. He only felt a loud bang in his ears, and in an instant, countless golden stars flashed. A strange feeling surged into his heart. It was an indescribable feeling of sweet, sour, bitter, spicy, and painful. He suddenly immersed himself in it wholeheartedly. It was so uncomfortable that he could hardly control his mind and wanted to shout a few times.

　　Yuan Mu and the others saw that Li Qingfeng's face was flushed, and bursts of white mist were emanating from his body and gradually condensed above his head. They knew that he was trying hard to resist the formation in the Jade Record Talisman and not let himself get lost in it.

　　Miaofa and other six elders and all the Tian-generation disciples had practiced Lingtian Heart Method and knew that it was the most critical part. Just getting through the first formation was very difficult and one had to concentrate and focus one's energy, otherwise one would get lost in it. Not only would one not be able to comprehend the technique, it would also cause great damage to one's own practice. Moreover, one could only rely on oneself to practice this technique and no one else could help. Since the founding of the sect, only Baoya had been able to practice this technique, which shows how difficult it was to practice Lingtian Heart Method.

　　Li Qingfeng tried his best to concentrate his mind, trying to remember with his mind and comprehend with his consciousness. Fortunately, his willpower was extraordinary, and gradually, he tasted some of the mysteries. There were nine groups of silver mist in front of him, and he knew that from left to right, it was divided into nine levels of heaven, but he did not dare to enter the silver mist rashly, and slowly experienced the mental method he realized from the first group of silver mist.

　　Li Qingfeng didn't know how much time had passed. He looked up and saw that his uncle masters and the sect leader were still in the hall. When they saw him open his eyes, they all surrounded him.

　　"How long has it been? It's been a long time. I feel like it's been a year." Li Qingfeng asked hurriedly after waking up and seeing that he was still in the hall.

　　Tianmu saw his disciple asking such a question and couldn't help but smile and said, "My disciple, only five hours have passed. Look outside, it's almost dawn."

　　Miao Fa glanced at Li Qingfeng and said happily, "The Ling Tian Heart Method is extremely profound. It has nine layers of heaven and eighteen realms. He is trapped in the Jade Record Talisman Formation. For him, going through the eighteen realms is equivalent to spending nearly a year. It is normal to have such a feeling. It seems that he has a deep wisdom and can break through the formation to realize the nine layers of heaven and eighteen realms."

　　“Uncle-master, I have only realized the first level. I haven’t entered the other eight levels yet.” Li Qingfeng felt embarrassed and explained while scratching his head.

　　"That doesn't matter. I can only comprehend the seventh level of the eighteen realms in the nine levels of Lingtian Heart Method. I can't comprehend the next two levels. As for whether you can practice it, it depends on your luck." Miaofa said.

　　"Why can't we practice as much as we realize?" Li Qingfeng couldn't help but ask.

　　"This set of skills is abstruse and difficult to understand. You must practice it from beginning to end to avoid going astray. In the beginning, there were people who practiced while comprehending, but they all died because they could not control their power after practicing. After that, successive sect leaders stipulated that anyone who practices Lingtian Heart Method must be able to fully comprehend it before practicing. So, if you cannot fully comprehend the Ninth Heaven realm, you must not practice it. Remember?" Miaofa became more and more serious as he spoke, looking at Li Qingfeng with lightning eyes.

　　"Yes, disciple will remember it." Li Qingfeng saw that the matter was so serious. He originally thought that although the Lingtian Heart Method was abstruse, it was not impossible to practice. It turned out that each level was more difficult than the last. It seemed that it was indeed very difficult to comprehend the eighteen realms of the Nine Heavens.

　　5. Volume 1: The Birth of Ten Thousand Demons - Chapter 4: The Six-Syllable Great Mantra

　　"Okay, it's almost time. Yuanmu, take Qingfeng to Qingyun Peak." Miaofa said, and walked into the back hall with the six elders.

　　"Master, let me go and pack some things." Li Qingfeng wanted to say hello to his fellow disciples before leaving.

　　"No need. This Nalan belt has everything. Let's go directly. I'll ask someone to talk to your fellow disciples." Yuan Mu saw through Li Qingfeng's thoughts and said it out loud.

　　Li Qingfeng had no choice but to reluctantly walk towards Qingyun Peak with Yuan Mu.

　　Qingyun Peak is also on Lingyuan Mountain, not far from Lingyuan Peak. The two peaks correspond to each other from a distance. From a distance, Lingyuan Mountain looks like a tower, reaching into the sky, surrounded by green mist, and you can't see what's inside. Qingyun Peak is like a treasure peak with a sword pointing upwards, standing upright next to Lingyuan Peak, like a guardian.

　　Both of them were Buddhists with profound skills and extremely fast speeds. They arrived at the foot of Qingyun Peak in less than half a day.

　　After walking for a while, they suddenly heard the sound of water like thunder. Two jade dragons hung straight down from the cliffs. The two waterfalls cascaded down, twisting and turning, leaping and running. The two climbed up the peak from the side of the waterfall. Yuan Mu said, "This is called the Double Dragon Waterfall. In front of it is the [Arhat Subduing Demon Formation] set up by our ancestors. After passing the formation and going up, you will reach the Qingyun Cave. You can use the [Five Yang Magic Ring] to open it. I will take you here. You can go the rest of the way by yourself."

　　When Qingfeng Li heard this, he was reluctant to leave, but he knew that this was his responsibility, so he said to Yuan Mu: "Master, I will definitely live up to your trust, cultivate the Lingtian Heart Method, and glorify our Pure Land Sect."

　　"Haha, good, good! Go quickly." When Li Qingfeng was three years old, there was a flood in his hometown. The whole village was trapped in the flood for several days. His parents put him in a wooden basket, but a sudden big wave washed him away. He drifted with the water for half a day. Yuan Mu happened to pass by and found him. He rescued him. Later, he went back to look for his family, only to find that the whole village had been submerged by the flood. He was brought back to the Pure Land Sect to be his closed disciple. Although they were master and apprentice, they were as close as father and son. In addition, Li Qingfeng was extremely talented and was deeply loved by the elders of the Tantric Sect.

　　Yuan Mu was also very reluctant, but he knew the seriousness of the matter, so he said calmly: "It's getting late, you should go earlier."

　　"Qingfeng, I hope you can practice this method successfully and revive our Pure Land Sect in the future. It will not be a waste of my teacher's cultivation over the years!" Yuanmu thought to himself and turned to go down the mountain.

　　Li Qingfeng looked at his master's back, and finally turned around and walked towards Qingyun Cave.

　　From here, the mountain path became more and more dangerous. To the right of the mountain path were strange rocks, and to the left was a deep ravine with no bottom in sight. Li Qingfeng picked up a big rock and threw it down the ravine. The big rock collided with the mountain wall, and at first it was as loud as thunder, but then the sound became very small and finally inaudible.

　　Going further up, there is a wide valley. In the valley covered with wild grass and trees, there is a stream like a ribbon, winding through the valley from the deep mountains and flowing into the mountainous area in the southwest. The ground and stone walls of the mountain belly are covered with countless trees and grasses of different heights, some of which are full of red, green, large and small fruits. In the distance, there is a stream on a mountain wall, flowing down from a high place and flowing into a pool. Looking up, I saw the sunlight shining through the cracks in the high top of the rock on several sequins in different positions and angles on the wall, making the mountain belly reflect the earth illuminated by the sun. It is hard to believe that you are in the mountain belly. It is indeed a very secret, quiet and beautiful place suitable for cultivation!

　　Li Qingfeng walked to the valley and looked around. He saw in front of him the "Arhat Subduing Demon Formation" laid out by his ancestors to protect the Qingyun Cave for practice. It was surrounded by eighteen large trees arranged according to the formation's orientation. In the middle, on a platform with a radius of two meters, stood four stone pillars. The stone pillars had deep lines, appearing simple and solemn. The four pillars were symmetrically distributed in a square. On top of the pillars was a blue crystal, with a faint blue light emanating from the crystal. This was the key to the formation. Together with the eighteen large trees outside, once the formation was in operation, if one did not know the mystery of the "Arhat Subduing Demon Formation" and was trapped in it, one would not be able to find the entrance to the Qingyun Cave even if one searched for ten years.

　　Li Qingfeng was of course very familiar with this formation, one of the three great formations of Buddhism. He entered from the Kun Gate, went around the Kan Gate, and came to the four pillars in the center of the formation.

　　I felt that there were many words written on the first pillar in front of me, so I went forward to take a closer look. It said: This formation is the Arhat Subduing Demon Formation. It was set up after I succeeded in the mission by taking advantage of the terrain and combining the six-syllable mantra. Those who can come to this pillar must be my younger disciples. There are mental methods on the four stone pillars, and those who are destined to get them will get them. Li Qingfeng looked down and saw that it was written:

　　If you practice tranquility and inaction, you can be anywhere and at any time.

　　There is no need to practice tranquility and observe emptiness; you will naturally stop where you want to stop.

　　Buddhism has always been natural, without any movement or stillness or beginning or end.

　　If one wants to have nothing to worry about, one must first have no concern for things.

　　Don’t think about good or evil, what human desires are there in the laws of nature?

　　Just like the light of a mirror without a mirror, you just respond to it when it comes.

　　Originally, the wonderful enlightenment is perfect and bright, so what is there to do but to cultivate it?

　　If you can understand the principle of inaction, you can practice the great way and obtain the Dharma.

　　Li Qingfeng couldn't help but feel confused. What he had learned in the past was that one point of effort equals one point of practice, and that was also what his master said. Why did it say here that there was no need to restrain oneself and cultivate oneself? Li Qingfeng was just about to go to the other three stone pillars to see what was written when something strange happened. The formation suddenly started to work, and the blue crystals above the four pillars emitted a strong blue light, and the four pillars also emitted white mist.

　　The scenery in the valley suddenly changed. In front of me was a very wide valley, the valley was as flat as a mirror, and a faint golden light slowly overflowed from the surface, as if it was covered with a layer of gold. In the golden light, there were lush grass, and wild flowers in the green grass were competing for beauty, with a refreshing fragrance that attracted countless bees and butterflies.

　　Li Qingfeng was secretly shocked when he saw the strange scene. The scenery here was so realistic, no different from reality. Everything was so natural and harmonious. The fragrance of flowers and green grass was fragrant, but Li Qingfeng knew that this was an illusion caused by the activation of the formation. If someone didn't know, he would have been lost in it. But he didn't know who entered the formation and triggered the formation. Li Qingfeng quickly closed his eyes, arranged according to the formation he knew, turned into the center of the formation, and opened his eyes to look.

　　From Li Qingfeng's perspective, the formation had returned to its original state, except that the blue crystals on top of the four stone pillars around it turned into a blue mist that enveloped the entire formation. Seeing that the person who had broken into the formation was still in it, Li Qingfeng concentrated his strength and looked around. He saw a white shadow moving rapidly in the formation, but it was unable to escape the range of the formation. However, this person was not bewitched by the illusion and it seemed that he had a deep level of cultivation.

　　At this time, the formation changed again. The four crystal stones emitted dazzling light, and the six-syllable mantra "Om Ma Ni Pa Ma Hum" was heard in the air.

　　Since Li Qingfeng began practicing, he had heard his master say the Six-Syllable Mantra, but he had never expected that the Six-Syllable Mantra would be so powerful. He felt his heart beat violently and vibrate when he heard the "Om" sound, his left shoulder shook when he heard the "Ma" sound, his Danzhong shook when he heard the "Ne" sound, his navel shook when he heard the "Ma" sound, and his blood in the Baihui acupoint churned uncontrollably when he heard the "Hum" sound. Li Qingfeng knew that the Buddha's sound was powerful. Although it was invisible and intangible, the sound was as real as a substance after being transformed by the formation, and its power should not be underestimated. He quickly sat down on the ground, guarding his mind to suppress the churning of blood in his body.

　　"Om~Ma~ni~Ba~Ma~Hum"

　　The sound of the Six-Syllable Mantra of Buddha kept coming from the air. Gradually, the white shadow could no longer bear the sound of the Buddha's name. It moved slower and slower, and finally fell to the ground and fainted.

　　There were bursts of Buddhist chanting in the air. Li Qingfeng felt that his whole body's true energy was no longer under his control. He was shocked, and suddenly he remembered the words he had just carved on the stone pillar. His mind brightened. No matter how the Buddhist chanting sounded, he just focused on guarding his Dantian. No matter how strong you are, just let the breeze support your face and let the true energy flow. Slowly, the true energy gradually calmed down. With Li Qingfeng's breathing, it flowed through the eight extraordinary meridians and twelve regular meridians in his body. At the same time, he felt his Dantian getting hot, and a warm current slowly went down along the thirty-two meridians of the crown chakra, through the sixteen meridians of the throat chakra, the eight meridians of the heart chakra, the sixty-four meridians of the navel chakra, and flowed through the entire three chakras and four meridians. Li Qingfeng only felt relaxed all over, his mind was clear and empty, and he felt vaguely that the Buddhas in his heart were singing together, the bells and drums were ringing together, which was very solemn. He quickly made the Vajra Seal, turned the Fearless Seal, took out the Lingtian Heart Method, sank his mind into the Jade Pupil Tablet again, and entered the second level of the Lingtian Heart Method to comprehend it. With the understanding and knowledge of the first level, Li Qingfeng easily comprehended the second level and entered the third level. Li Qingfeng's heart moved, and he felt that the first three levels corresponded to the Buddhist inscriptions on the pillars. He understood that this must be the experience and insights left by the ancestor on the pillars before he practiced the Lingtian Heart Method and ascended. Li Qingfeng withdrew his mind, and saw that the formation had returned to its original state, but there was still a vast green mist. He looked around and saw the white shadow just now at the position of Kanmen, so he got up and walked over.

　　6. Volume 1: The Birth of Ten Thousand Demons - Chapter 5: Spiritual Ape

　　Li Qingfeng walked over and took a look, and couldn't help laughing. It turned out that the person lying on the ground was not a master cultivator, but a pure white ape, about three feet tall, who had apparently accidentally entered the formation. Li Qingfeng sent a stream of true energy into the white ape's body to detect it, and found that the white ape was just shocked by the power of the six-syllable mantra, causing the blood to flow backwards and fainting, and there was no damage. It seemed that this formation only trapped people, but did not hurt them.

　　Li Qingfeng slowly transferred some of his true energy into the white ape's Tianling acupoint. In less than half a cup of tea, the white ape woke up. The white ape was covered in white hair, without a single strand of other colors, except for a circle of black hair around its eyes, which made it look very cute. The white ape was probably frightened by the sound of the six-syllable mantra. When it saw Li Qingfeng, it quickly lay down and trembled all over. It seemed that it thought it was Li Qingfeng who made it uncomfortable. Li Qingfeng couldn't help laughing and pulled the white ape up, wanting to take it out of the formation and release it, and then return to Qingyun Cave to practice. Who knew that when Li Qingfeng took the white ape out of the formation, the white ape was unwilling to leave, but just held on to Li Qingfeng's legs tightly. Li Qingfeng didn't know what he meant, but the white ape was so cute that he thought it would be better to take it into Qingyun Cave to keep it company.

　　Li Qingfeng looked at the white ape and felt that it seemed to understand human thoughts. He couldn't help but say to it, "Do you want to follow me?"

　　Unexpectedly, the white ape was ecstatic, jumping around, and finally jumped carefully onto Li Qingfeng's shoulder, looking very comfortable. Li Qingfeng didn't know why the white ape liked him so much, and he couldn't help but smile and led the white ape into the formation.

　　Li Qingfeng arrived at the formation, and saw that there were indeed different words on the other three pillars. After reading them, Li Qingfeng felt that they were very different from what he had learned before, and he didn't understand what they meant. However, he knew that this must be the secret of his ancestors' practice of Lingtian Heart Method, so he hurriedly memorized them all and would think about them later.

　　After passing through the formation, he saw a stream on the mountain wall in front of him, flowing down from a high place and flowing into a pool of water. He saw three big words on the stone wall: "Qingyun Cave". Li Qingfeng took out the "Five Yang Magic Ring" and used 50% of his true energy to force it into the Five Yang Magic Ring. He saw the Five Yang Magic Ring emit a soft light. He saw a piece of bluestone on the stone wall slowly sinking inwards. Li Qingfeng couldn't help but add 20% of his true energy. He saw a stone about ten feet high and six feet wide sinking into the stone wall, revealing a passage. Li Qingfeng knew that this was the entrance to Qingyun Cave. The white ape didn't know whether it was afraid or excited. It squeaked in a low voice and grabbed Li Qingfeng's clothes tightly, as if it was afraid that Li Qingfeng would throw it away. Li Qingfeng knew that the white ape could understand human nature, so he patted its head. The white ape seemed to know what Li Qingfeng meant, and calmed down. The man and the monkey walked into the passage.

　　Li Qingfeng walked into the cave with some expectation. He guided his Zhen Yuan Gong to focus his eyes and could see clearly. The passage was very deep, surrounded by bluestone, and extended diagonally downwards, which could accommodate two people. The cave was slightly damp, but the air was very fresh. Li Qingfeng could not help but be a little surprised. He thought that this Qingyun Cave was only a small place, but he did not expect it to be so large.

　　After about a cup of tea, Qingfeng Li finally reached the bottom of the passage. In front of him was a huge hall, with lovely green stones all around, emitting a glowing green light. On the left was a row of stone chambers, while the right was very empty, with only nine pillars standing there, each as thick as a man's embrace. The texture of the pillars was very strange, and one could see clouds and mist swirling around inside.

　　The white ape came into the hall, looked around excitedly, and jumped off Qingfeng Li's shoulder, as if it was also very surprised.

　　Li Qingfeng knew there would be no danger here, so he let it play without worry. He wanted to take a quick look inside the stone chamber, so he entered the first stone chamber on the left. There were several rows of neatly arranged stone shelves filled with all kinds of books. He could not help but walk back gradually, and saw that there was only one book on the last row of stone shelves, which read: "Pure Land Notes". He flipped through it and found that it was about the Pure Land Sect's experience and methods of cultivation since Master Huideng. There were also many common senses about cultivation, and some special things about the world of cultivation and the world of Buddhism. Li Qingfeng flipped through the pages slowly, and saw that the book said: "This cave was formed naturally, and spiritual energy gathers here, which is of great help to cultivation. When I discovered it accidentally that year, I was amazed, so I devoted myself to cultivation here for 168 years, and only then was I able to realize the way of immortality and be reborn. Later, I established the Pure Land Sect, and rebuilt this cave, and built four stone rooms, namely "study room, lounge, refining room, and storage room". There are a total of 1,200 books in the study room, including scriptures, cultivation, refining and alchemy, as well as some miscellaneous books. After collecting them, I have not had time to read many of them. Those who are interested in the future can read them by themselves. In addition, the "Nine Heavens Gathering Yuan Formation" is arranged outside the room. There is a "Jade Crystal Divine Spring" in the center of the formation, which gathers spiritual energy. Practicing in the formation can quickly improve the practitioner's skills. In addition, jade crystal has the effect of calming the mind, which helps with cultivation." It was also seen that the book wrote: The spring water in the southeast corner of the hall gathers the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and it is very beneficial to drink. "The last name left was Zen Master Huideng. After that, there were the cultivation experiences of each generation of disciples. Li Qingfeng turned to a page and saw the words: "There are still ancient spiritual apes on Qingyun Mountain. It is said that this ape is pure white and can live for thousands of years. There are circles of black hair around its eyes. It has a peaceful temperament and is very spiritual." There were only a few simple sentences and no detailed introduction. Li Qingfeng realized that the white ape he had just brought might be the "spiritual ape" written in the book. However, Li Qingfeng knew it was a spiritual ape and didn't think anything of it. He just thought the white ape was cute and brought it with him.

　　Li Qingfeng didn't realize that nearly two hours had passed since he started watching. He felt a little strange. This spirit ape was very active by nature, so why had it been so quiet for so long? He couldn't help but walk out to take a look.

　　Walking out of the stone chamber, I saw that the monkey head was sleeping on the Jade Crystal Spring in the "Nine Heavens Gathering Yuan Formation", and he was sleeping quite comfortably. Li Qingfeng couldn't help thinking: This ancient spirit ape is indeed extraordinary, and he knows where the most spiritual energy is. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at the Nine Heavens Gathering Yuan Formation carefully. The nine columns around the Nine Heavens Gathering Yuan Formation are arranged in a circle, and the columns are engraved with dark green patterns, like a formation spell. The formation is full of green air, and there is a flat dark green jade in the middle, like a jade bed, but it feels a little warm. Li Qingfeng saw that the place was still big, and the spirit ape only occupied less than one-third of the place, so he sat on the jade bed and began to practice. Li Qingfeng's five hearts were facing the sky, and his hands formed the Vajra Seal. He sank his mind into the Dantian Qi Sea and began to comprehend the Lingtian Heart Method with his heart.

　　Li Qingfeng slowly entered the fourth group of silver mist. He felt the scorching sun and the vast expanse of white all around. It seemed to be a wilderness, but it was actually an endless desert. The sky was full of yellow sand that gathered and dispersed with the wind. The earth was barren. The roaring wind made a sharp roar. The sky darkened and dull thunder sounded in the distance. It was the sandstorm coming.

　　Li Qingfeng had already achieved some success in practicing the Tantric mind method, and was determined. However, he saw the strong wind blowing sand in front of him, and the pain of the sand hitting his face was very real. He also felt that the power of heaven and earth was beyond human power to resist. A tornado with a diameter of several feet gradually formed, rolling up thousands of sand grains. Sand dunes more than ten meters high also rose from the ground around the tornado, gradually rolling towards Li Qingfeng. Li Qingfeng hurriedly summoned the "Lan Deng Sword", and the true essence of Buddhism continued to flow into the sword body. The Lantern Sword emitted a strong light, and the sword energy expanded rapidly. The yellow sand on the ground was lifted up by the huge force and flew violently. Li Qingfeng rushed towards the tornado!

　　7. Volume 1: The Birth of Ten Thousand Demons - Chapter 6: Enlightenment

　　The tornado's diameter had reached ten feet, with countless raging sands rolled up in it. The howling wind made a huge roar, and the dark red storm wall connecting the sky and the ground was rapidly squeezing over. In front of this huge tornado, Li Qingfeng seemed so small and felt so powerless.

　　If you don't succeed, you will die. Without a strong and fearless heart, how can you achieve the glorious path?

　　Qingfeng Li was determined and rushed in fearlessly. Suddenly, the surroundings were dark and sharp whistling sounds were circling around him. There was not only sand in the sandstorm, but also countless gravel and even invisible energy. Qingfeng Li summoned up all his energy, and the Lantern Sword also trembled and emitted a dazzling golden light. The sword light forcibly eliminated everything that approached without a trace.

　　Seeing the tornado being dispersed by a blow, Li Qingfeng couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He felt that his internal energy was greatly consumed. Just when he wanted to take a rest, another tornado attacked him unexpectedly, which was much bigger than the previous one. At this time, there was no way to avoid or escape. The tornado was in front of him in an instant, and the strong wind attacked his body. Li Qingfeng hurriedly gathered his internal energy and chopped out a sword. Suddenly, his throat felt sweet, and he spat out a large mouthful of blood with a "wow" sound, and he almost fainted.

　　One tornado was dispersed, and another one appeared automatically, and the condensed power became stronger and stronger. Li Qingfeng's true energy became weaker and weaker, and he felt that he was no longer able to support it. He gradually fell into a state of obsession, his mind was in chaos, and he was about to enter the state of being possessed by the devil.

　　Li Qingfeng gradually fell into a coma, but woke up after a while, feeling five streams of cool true energy slowly entering his body from his five hearts. He immediately woke up and knew that this must be an illusion. He silently recited the Six-Syllable Mantra, guiding the five straight energy to circulate through the eight extraordinary meridians in his body. His mind gradually calmed down, his true energy was replenished, and the scene in front of him changed. He entered the fifth heaven.

　　Li Qingfeng woke up from his meditation, only to see the spirit ape scratching its head and running around anxiously. When it saw Li Qingfeng wake up, it shouted and jumped into Li Qingfeng's arms. It turned out that the spirit ape suddenly felt the scorching heat next to it. When it woke up, it saw Li Qingfeng emitting white mist, which condensed on his head. His face was scary, but it could not get within three steps of him. It was very anxious, and was overjoyed to see that Li Qingfeng woke up and was safe.

　　Li Qingfeng laughed loudly: "Xiaobai, it's all right." Li Qingfeng saw that the ape was indeed smart and psychic, so he named it "Xiaobai". "Xiaobai, let's go, let's go eat." The ape seemed to understand what Li Qingfeng said, jumped off him, and nodded repeatedly.

　　Li Qingfeng came to the spring pool mentioned in the book, and saw that there was only a small half of the water in the two-foot-square pool in the corner of the hall, and the water was milky white. From the "Pure Land Notes", he knew that this spring water was the gathering of spiritual energy in the cave, which was extremely tonic. It took decades to fill a pool. Drinking a mouthful at a time could not only quench thirst, but also satisfy hunger, and promote spiritual practice. Li Qingfeng went forward and saw a jade bowl by the pool, so he scooped a bowl with the jade bowl and drank it slowly. Seeing this, the spirit ape also hurriedly grabbed the jade bowl and scooped a bowl to drink.

　　Li Qingfeng was determined to master the Lingtian Heart Method, so he lived in a stone room, practicing Buddhism during the day and reading Buddhist scriptures at night. He neglected sleep and food, and only went out occasionally to drink some water and milk. With the company of the spirit ape, his days were quite fulfilling. In a blink of an eye, two years passed, and he had read most of the books in the study, and finally comprehended the Lingtian Heart Method to the ninth level.

　　The spirit ape had also grown a lot, now about five feet tall. It could no longer stand on Li Qingfeng's shoulders and act wild, but the man and the ape got along well in the cave. When Li Qingfeng was practicing, the spirit ape seemed to know that he was practicing and did not disturb him. It just lay on the jade bed beside Li Qingfeng and slept, absorbing the spiritual energy of the jade crystal.

　　The timing funnel in the lounge clearly showed that it would be two years in two months. Although Li Qingfeng's practice had improved greatly, he had not been able to comprehend the ninth level of the Lingtian Heart Method, and therefore could not practice it.

　　Lingtian Heart Method is the supreme heart method for cultivating Buddhism and becoming an immortal, and is divided into three levels: the three levels of Hinayana: the first level is returning to the origin and gathering Qi, the second level is gathering Qi into elixir, and the third level is when the elixir is formed and an infant is obtained; the three levels of middle level: the first level is the unity of mind and spirit, the second level is the leaving of the body by the spirit, and the third level is the formation of Buddha heart; the three levels of superior level: the first level is the cultivation of Yang God, the second level is the cultivation of Yin God, and the third level is the combination of Yin and Yang.

　　In the Lingtian Heart Method, each level uses the Heart Method to train the practitioner's mind and spirit. The practitioner must have a strong heart, clear mind and a clear spirit to realize the nine levels of the realm. However, countless smart and intelligent people in the Pure Land Sect for nearly 800 years have been unable to practice it. It seems that it must be extremely difficult. Li Qingfeng thought about it but couldn't get the point, so he got up and went to the study to take a look.

　　Seeing Li Qingfeng go to the study to read, the spirit ape followed him into the study. Li Qingfeng started reading as usual, but the spirit ape got angry again and secretly took a book and threw it at Li Qingfeng. Li Qingfeng was already used to the spirit ape's nonsense and was not angry. He just grabbed the book with his hand and said, "Xiaobai, if you make trouble again, I won't let you drink the water from the spirit spring today."

　　When the spirit ape heard this, it immediately jumped over slowly like a child who had done something wrong, and grabbed Li Qingfeng's legs to act coquettishly. Li Qingfeng deliberately ignored him to see what other tricks he had up his sleeve.

　　"Eh..." Li Qingfeng saw that the book in his hand was something he had never read before. The cover of the book was very thick and looked very worn, but there was no title. He opened it and saw that there were only a few thin pages in the book. He couldn't help but read it carefully. The spirit ape saw that Li Qingfeng was reading the book carefully and stayed quietly aside.

　　Li Qingfeng only saw the words written on the book: "Human beings are like mothers carrying their children in the universe. Human beings grow in the universe, so they are called yang fetuses. The acquired primordial energy in the human body must be in harmony with the primordial energy of the universe. The primordial energy of the universe absorbed is yin breath. If yin and yang can be exchanged and matched, and the fetus is round and full, then the way of heaven can be achieved." The meaning of these words is not difficult to understand. The primordial energy of a person is the yang fetus, and the primordial energy of the universe is the yin breath. If yin and yang can be unified, then one can cultivate the great way and become an immortal or a Buddha.

　　Suddenly, as if a flash of lightning flashed through Li Qingfeng's mind, he finally understood the secret of the ninth level of Lingtian Heart Method. He couldn't help but laugh out loud and picked up the spirit ape. The spirit ape was immediately frightened. He thought that Li Qingfeng was going to punish him for throwing the book at him just now. He was about to take the opportunity to jump away, but when he saw that Li Qingfeng was just holding him and laughing happily, he became quiet.

　　The unity of yin and yang is to combine the two kinds of vital energy into one. The principle of the ninth level of yin and yang unity is probably similar. Li Qingfeng knows that it takes a lot of true energy to comprehend each level. Although there are the Nine Heavens Gathering Yuan Formation and the Jade Crystal Divine Spring to help, it should be more effective if he refines a few furnaces of pills. Li Qingfeng has already memorized the method of refining pills, but he has never practiced it himself. Li Qingfeng thought: What kind of pill should I make? Well, it is better to practice [Gathering Yuan Pill]. If the true energy is insufficient, just take one. It seems that Li Qingfeng still misses [Gathering Yuan Pill]. Li Qingfeng happily shouted to the spirit ape: "Let's go, Xiaobai, let's refine the immortal pill. Do you want to eat it?" It seems that he thought this Gathering Yuan Pill was an immortal pill.

　　Li Qingfeng came to the weapon refining room, and saw that the room was very large. There were various herbs on the shelves around. There was a big tripod in the middle, and three small tripods on the shelf in front. The shelves were written with: Wumu Tripod, Jinou Tripod, Shuiyun Tripod, Huoxin Tripod, Tuning Tripod, but the positions of Huoxin Tripod and Tuning Tripod on the shelves were empty. Li Qingfeng knew that this small tripod could only be used with the method of refining with the heart. He was not strong enough, so he could only use the big tripod in the room. He was going to practice Juyuan Dan. Li Qingfeng knew that practicing Juyuan Dan required herbs such as sheath wood, raspberry, mountain thorn rose golden cherry, blackberry three-lobed leaf, white powder vine, etc. He knew the shapes of these herbs by heart, so he went to the shelf next to him to look for these herbs.

　　8. Volume 1: The Birth of Ten Thousand Demons - Chapter 7: Alchemy

　　The spirit ape didn't know what Li Qingfeng was doing in this stone chamber. He just looked at the many herbs curiously and touched them. After a while, he picked up something that looked like Ganoderma lucidum and gave it to Li Qingfeng. Li Qingfeng saw that this medicine looked like Ganoderma lucidum, but it was green in color and the leaves had wrinkles on the bottom. Li Qingfeng remembered a book of medicine in the study, "Compendium of Materia Medica", which introduced: Tree Ganoderma, which looks like Ganoderma lucidum, is green in color, and is mostly parasitic on thousand-year-old trees. It is a rare spiritual medicine. Li Qingfeng took a closer look and found that this was the tree Ganoderma. Li Qingfeng came to the shelf where the spirit ape had just found the tree Ganoderma, and saw that the others were all Ganoderma lucidum, without any tree Ganoderma. He knew that the people who picked the herbs might have thought that this was the Ganoderma lucidum and brought it back together.

　　It seems that this spirit ape is good at identifying medicinal herbs. Li Qingfeng thought that the spirit ape not only understands human nature, but can also identify treasures. It is worthy of being an ancient spirit beast. I will ask him to find treasures for me when he goes out of the mountain in the future. Haha, Li Qingfeng couldn't help but think in his mind that the spirit ape didn't know that this thoughtful person was plotting against him.

　　After Li Qingfeng found the herbs, he sat down in front of the alchemy cauldron and injected a stream of true energy into the large cauldron in front of him. The cauldron then slowly began to turn, making a faint rumbling sound.

　　Li Qingfeng had never made elixirs before. His master had only told him that only after one had cultivated the inner elixir and had abundant and inexhaustible true energy in the body, could one open the cauldron to make elixirs. Otherwise, his power would not be enough and he would not even be able to open the lid of the cauldron. Li Qingfeng had never tested his power since he had formed the inner elixir, but today, when he used it, he felt that his true energy was endless and endless, as if the inner elixir was the source of true energy.

　　In an instant, the alchemy cauldron flashed with a faint golden light, illuminating the surroundings. The spirit ape also stared at Li Qingfeng with wide eyes, its face full of excitement. It scratched its ears and cheeks, and wanted to get closer to take a look, but there were waves of heat near the alchemy cauldron, and it couldn't help but take a few steps back.

　　The alchemy cauldron was spinning faster and faster with a rumbling sound. The golden light gradually grew stronger. As the red light flashed, waves of heat surged out and the alchemy platform was wrapped in a huge heat current.

　　Li Qingfeng gradually strengthened his Qi and prepared to open the lid of the cauldron. He felt that his Qi was rapidly depleted and it was difficult to continue. He made a lotus seal with his hands and used all his Qi. He shouted "Open" and the lid of the cauldron slowly rose. Li Qingfeng hurriedly threw more than a dozen medicinal materials into the cauldron one by one. After placing the medicines one by one, Li Qingfeng relaxed and sat cross-legged in front of the cauldron. He just slowly used some Qi to refine the medicine.

　　Li Qingfeng suddenly had an idea. When he was making seals, his true Qi circulated much faster than usual. He didn't know if it could be used for refining medicine. While making seals, Li Qingfeng input true Qi into the alchemy cauldron. He felt that the true Qi circulated back and forth continuously, and the seals could strengthen the true Qi. Li Qingfeng felt that the inner elixir in his body was shining with golden light and had grown a little bigger.

　　Li Qingfeng sat there for two days. Although the spirit ape sometimes jumped up and down in a hurry, it could not get close to the cauldron. Every day he went to the spirit spring to drink some water, and his life was peaceful.

　　On the third day, Li Qingfeng only felt a rumbling sound inside the alchemy cauldron, and the slowly rotating cauldron gradually stopped, until it was finally time to produce the elixir.

　　The alchemy cauldron gradually stopped, Li Qingfeng had already prepared, and sent a stream of true qi into the cauldron. In an instant, the cauldron made a low roar, and the lid of the cauldron slowly rose. Li Qingfeng knew that this was the critical moment to collect the elixir. If the lid could not be opened smoothly, the elixir would be too refined and useless. Li Qingfeng used 100% of his strength, pinched the seal with his hands, and used all his strength to stimulate the true qi. After a loud bang, nine bright vermilion dots sprayed into the sky.

　　A rich and refreshing fragrance wafted out, and the spirit ape was already dazzled and started squeaking beside.

　　Li Qingfeng put down the lid of the tripod and waved his hand. Nine pills flew into his hand. Each pill was translucent vermilion and the size of a thumb. There were dots of silver in the vermilion, which looked very magical. Li Qingfeng looked at the first batch of pills he made and said excitedly, "Haha, I finally succeeded. I can also make pills."

　　The spirit ape looked at Li Qingfeng in confusion, probably wondering why Li Qingfeng was so happy just because he had refined a few pills. Li Qingfeng learned from [Alchemy Tips] that if one could refine as few pills as possible, the better. If only one pill was refined from a furnace of herbs, it must be a top-grade pill. Generally, a furnace could refine dozens of pills, but this time he only refined nine pills, so it seemed that the pills should be good.

　　Li Qingfeng gave one pill to the ape and put the other eight pills into his belt for use when practicing the Lingtian Heart Method. The ape grabbed the pill and swallowed it without even looking at it. He curled his lips as if he thought it was not very good. Li Qingfeng could not help but feel angry and amused. He gave the elixir to the monkey head and ate it like a fruit. It was a waste of my good medicine.

　　After Li Qingfeng finished refining the elixir, he was ready to concentrate on comprehending the ninth level of the Lingtian Heart Method. He said to the ape who was playing with herbs beside him, "Xiaobai, I have to go practice first. You can play here by yourself and don't disturb me." The ape didn't care about his words. After all, it had spent the past three years like this and was still playing with the herbs in its hand. Li Qingfeng smiled and went outside to practice in the Jiutian Juyuan Formation.

　　After practicing the elixir, Li Qingfeng's seal-making technique has become much more sophisticated. After all, making so many different seals at once is of great help to his character and practice. Li Qingfeng's hands are still in the Vajra Seal. He sits on the Jade Crystal Spring and slowly sinks his mind into the ninth level of the Lingtian Heart Method. He feels that the true energy in his body suddenly jumps out of control. He uses the method of yin and yang exchange and matching to stabilize the true energy. Yin turns to yang, and yang gives birth to yin. Yin and yang combine and live forever. There is only a flash of rosy clouds, and the illusion of the formation disappears, revealing a few rows of big characters: "Observe all things with one heart, and all things are not surplus. If all things are disturbed by one qi, one qi is not insufficient. One qi is one heart, and the heart cannot be taken away by things. One heart moves one qi, and the qi cannot be controlled by the law. The source of the heart is clear and subtle, and it can break everything with one light, and it does not know that there is anything. The qi is strong, and all feelings are one breath, and it does not know that there is a law. There is no thing in everything, so as to return to the original image; there is no law, and the truth of self-satisfaction is complete."

　　Li Qingfeng knew that this was the general outline of the Lingtian Heart Method practice, but if he did not have the understanding of the Ninth Heaven Realm, he would not be able to practice the Lingtian Heart Method even if he knew this general outline.

　　The appearance of this general outline meant that Li Qingfeng had finally fully comprehended the nine levels of the Lingtian Heart Method. Although the hardships involved were immense, he would become the first person in the Pure Land Sect in hundreds of years who could practice the Lingtian Heart Method.

　　However, future achievements will depend on the luck of heaven and earth and personal opportunities. There are countless geniuses in the world of Taoism, but only a few can achieve breakthroughs in the void and cultivate the Great Dao.

　　After Li Qingfeng obtained the secret of Lingtian Heart Method, he felt clear-headed and wise, and began to practice Lingtian Heart Method.

　　Lingtian Heart Method, the first level is returning to the origin and gathering energy.

　　Different paths lead to the same source, although Lingtian Heart Method is much stronger than other methods and cultivates the way of celestial immortal, the basic methods are mostly the same, just more subtle. Li Qingfeng himself has already reached the realm of Dancheng, so he is now familiar with the first level of Lingtian Heart Method and it is not difficult.

　　Li Qingfeng guided the Yin and Yang energies in his body, circulating from his Qi sea along the large and small meridians of his body, absorbing the true essence in the array and the spiritual energy from the jade crystal bed. This Lingtian Heart Method was indeed extraordinary, but the first level of Guiyuan Juqi required so much true energy. Li Qingfeng only felt that the true energy in his Qi sea formed a vortex, which continuously sucked the true essence and spiritual energy in the array into his body, but this vortex was like a bottomless hole that could not be filled no matter what.

　　Li Qingfeng took out a [Yuan Ju Dan] and swallowed it. He made a seal in his hand to speed up the flow of Qi. He felt a bang in his ears and a strong warm current flowed into his body through his five orifices. The slow warm current became faster and hotter. Finally, when Li Qingfeng couldn't stand it anymore and wanted to scream, he was shocked to find that he couldn't do anything. Not only could he not scream, he couldn't even open his eyes. However, the feeling in his body became clearer and clearer. It hurt, as if someone had set a fire in his heart, burning his internal organs.

　　Just when Li Qingfeng could no longer bear it and was about to collapse, he suddenly remembered the "Six-Syllable Mantra" and recited it silently in his mind. He felt much better immediately. He didn't know how much time had passed, but the pain slowly subsided and the initial comfort returned.

　　9. Volume 1: The Birth of Ten Thousand Demons - Chapter 8: The Birth of the Demon

　　Suddenly, a strong icy air surged from the Yongquan point on the bottom of his feet into the deep sea of qi in his body. Li Qingfeng felt that he was about to freeze to death, and the true qi in his body condensed. Li Qingfeng almost fainted. He felt that the warm current was slowly turning. Every time it turned, the true qi became stronger. He felt that the true qi quickly gathered at the sea of qi and condensed into a golden inner pill. This inner pill was different from the previous one. It was real. Li Qingfeng slowly gathered his energy and withdrew his mind. His skill quickly climbed to the second level of gathering qi into a pill.

　　Opening his eyes, Li Qingfeng was shocked. The jade bed condensed by the Jade Crystal Divine Spring was dim and pure white. There was no spiritual energy flowing through his tentacles. Li Qingfeng thought, could this be related to the powerful icy air just now? Shaking his head, Li Qingfeng himself couldn't figure it out, so he decided to go back and ask his master.

　　At this moment, Qingfeng Li has truly realized the Way of Heaven and embarked on the path of Buddhist cultivation.

　　Stepping out of the formation, Li Qingfeng only felt that the circulation of the true Qi in his body was different from before, but he couldn't tell exactly what was different. It was just that in the past it took about an incense stick of time for the true Qi to circulate once, but now it can be completed between one breath and one inhalation. Everything else seemed to be no different.

　　Li Qingfeng looked up, and saw the spirit ape jumping around excitedly in the hall, its body moving very quickly. Li Qingfeng had just started practicing magic skills, and didn't know how effective it would be, so he shouted, "Xiaobai, I'm coming, don't let me catch you." After saying that, he rushed forward.

　　When the spirit ape saw Li Qingfeng coming to chase him, he just squeaked with joy and moved even faster. No one had played with him in the past two years, and he was very bored. Now that someone was playing with him, he could play to his heart's content.

　　A white shadow and a green shadow were seen moving quickly in the hall, chasing each other. Li Qingfeng used 50% of his Spiritual Heaven Heart Technique, but he was just one step away from catching the ape. He could not help but add another 20% of his strength, and his body quickly accelerated, like a phantom, closely following the ape's hand. In fact, Li Qingfeng could catch the ape as long as he stretched out his hand, but he wanted to see how fast the ape could run, so he just followed behind the ape like a shadow.

　　Seeing Li Qingfeng following behind him like a shadow, the spirit ape screamed and ran around, but he couldn't get rid of Li Qingfeng's pursuit. Finally, he sat on the ground and couldn't get up, with an expression that said, "If I don't run away, what can you do to me?" Li Qingfeng smiled and said nothing. He was going to refine a few more furnaces of good pills.

　　In the rest of the time, Li Qingfeng was either practicing or making pills. As his skills improved, he became more adept at making pills. In just half a year, Li Qingfeng made five top-grade elixirs, dozens of high-grade elixirs and thousands of ordinary elixirs.

　　As the three-year period was about to end, Li Qingfeng's cultivation had also made a qualitative breakthrough compared to before. The realm of ordinary cultivators is divided into seven levels, namely, Qi training, gathering essence, combining spirit, concentrating spirit, forming essence pill, gathering spirit, and returning to the void. Those who cultivate the way of earthly immortals, and those who cultivate to the realm of returning to the void are the first-level earthly immortals. Li Qingfeng cultivated the way of heavenly immortals, which is divided into nine levels. When he cultivated to the seventh level and cultivated the Yang God, he actually surpassed the earthly immortals at the returning to the void stage.

　　Relying on the foundation he had laid before and the unparalleled conditions of Qingyun Cave, Li Qingfeng finally cultivated to the peak of the second level of Lingtian Heart Method, gathering Qi to form a pill. He was only one step away from achieving the Nascent Soul realm that many cultivators dreamed of.

　　After three years of closed-door training, Li Qingfeng was no longer the same as before. He led the spirit ape out of Qingyun Cave and saw that the scenery at the bottom of the valley remained the same. He suddenly felt heroic and looked up to the sky and howled. The sound was like a dragon's roar, and the sound shook the whole area. The wild energy spread out, and sand and rocks flew everywhere, and the loess covered the sky. The continuous howling sound gradually faded away like thunder. He stared at the sky in a daze. He didn't expect it to be so powerful. He thought to himself, "Such a loud sound, I wonder if Master and others can hear it, hehe."

　　A smile as bright as the sun appeared on his face. The spirit ape scratched its ears and cheeks happily, jumped around, and squeaked. Li Qingfeng shouted, "Master, I'm back." He grabbed the spirit ape and passed through the Arhat Demon Subduing Formation and went to Lingyuan Peak.

　　Li Qingfeng came to the foot of Lingyuan Peak at the speed of light, and saw that the barrier was still there. He was overjoyed, knowing that the Demon Lord must not have broken through the "Demon Trapping Formation" yet. He turned into a green shadow and rushed up the mountain. The spirit ape was not willing to be outdone, and also rushed up.

　　In less than half an hour, Li Qingfeng had arrived at the main gate of Lingyuan Temple. He saw three gates standing side by side, with a large gate in the middle, about two feet wide, and a small gate on each side. Usually the main gate was always open, and from outside the gate one could see two guardian statues holding vajra on both sides of the gate, but at this time the three gates were closed, and no one knew what had happened.

　　At this time, the spirit ape caught up from behind, opened its mouth and breathed out, staring at Li Qingfeng with a look of dissatisfaction on its face.

　　Li Qingfeng was extremely anxious at this moment, not knowing what had happened in the temple. Just as he was about to go forward and knock on the door, he heard a loud "boom" in the temple, and the ground shook violently.

　　There were screams in the temple. Li Qingfeng knew something big must have happened, so he stopped knocking on the door and jumped over the wall and ran straight into the temple. Normally, the temple was protected by a barrier, and it would be impossible to enter if you didn't enter through the main gate. But after the loud noise just now, the barrier disappeared, so Li Qingfeng was able to jump over the wall.

　　The loud noise just now was caused by the collision of the three demon kings' qi when they broke through the "Demon Trapping Array". What appeared in front of everyone was a tall and mighty figure, as tall as three people, surrounded by black mist. He raised his head and roared, as if he was excited about being able to break out of the "Demon Trapping Array".

　　Everyone was horrified, and some of the disciples with lower cultivation levels could not bear it, and hurriedly retreated to the back to feel better. Yuan Mu and Yuan Xin were also shocked. The demonic energy emitted by this demon was extremely powerful. It was hard for one demon to have such strength. If the other three demons came out together, wouldn't it be another catastrophe for the world?

　　The five elders Gold, Wood, Water, Fire and Earth and the elders Yuan Xin, Yuan Mu and Tian Xing surrounded the Demon-Trapping Array from eight directions. The six old men all changed color and looked up at the huge demon that was more than twice as tall as them. They were extremely shocked. They did not expect that after being restricted in the Demon-Trapping Array for hundreds of years, it was still so powerful.

　　Miaofa frowned, the demon in front of him gave him a very strong sense of foreboding. The demon had deep eye sockets, huge eyeballs emitting strong red light, and was seven or eight meters tall. On his neck, which was as thick as a bucket, hung a heavy, white skull necklace. His mouth was wide open, revealing huge fangs that were big enough to swallow a cow. Most of his body was hidden in the thick black mist. At this moment, he was looking at Miaofa and others with a smug laugh.

　　"Hahaha, Lord of Resentment, Lord of Imprisonment, I will kill all these people for you." Lord of Darkness grinned and let out a series of extremely disgusting laughs. The expression he gave when he looked at the crowd was so exaggerated that it was disgusting, as if these people were already in his mouth.

　　"Did you devour those two demons?" Miaofa's mind moved, and he asked the Dark Demon Lord.

　　"I should have eaten those two idiots long ago. If you hadn't tried your best to activate the Demon-Trapping Array, I wouldn't have eaten their demon bodies so easily and absorbed their demon souls. Haha..." The Dark Demon Lord looked around with his huge eyes, and he looked very happy. He looked like he was very excited to get out of the Demon-Trapping Array for the first time.

　　"Huh? The Dark Demon Lord looked at Miaofa in astonishment, apparently quite surprised. He then said, "Your practice is good, haha, but you are still not my opponent." After that, he laughed again. He must be happy that no one in this world can subdue him.

　　Miaofa suddenly said: "He is delaying time. If he condenses his demonic body, I'm afraid no one here can subdue him. Let's form a formation quickly." After Miaofa finished speaking, he put his hands together, and the Buddhist beads in his hands rose up out of thin air and rapidly revolved around Miaofa.

　　"Hahaha, it's too late." The Dark Demon Lord quickly absorbed the demonic energy into his body, and a huge body gradually took shape.

　　PS: Dear friends, please support me by voting and collecting. It’s not easy for a newbie.

　　10. Volume 1: The Birth of Ten Thousand Demons - Chapter 9: The Power of Mental Skills

　　Yuanmu, Yuanxin, Miaofa and other elders all offered their magic weapons. Some of the magic weapons held by the elders were Buddha beads, and some were flying swords. Yuanmu's magic weapon was a seven-color lotus seat, which was crystal clear. It was a token of the successive generations of Tantric masters. It was powerful and had boundless power to suppress demons and exorcise evil spirits. Yuanxin held a demon-subduing mirror, which was antique and bronze in color. It was also an ancient magic weapon that had been blessed by several generations of masters. Under the Buddha's light, demons and evil spirits were easily shunned.

　　Eight magic weapons formed an octagonal ring shadow that flew out. The eight colors of the ring shadows overlapped each other and connected into an octagonal columnar net that hovered in the air and emitted a rainbow-like light.

　　This demon had just come out of the Demon Trapping Array, and his demonic body had not yet condensed, so he was unable to dodge. In addition, he had been suppressed under the Demon Suppressing Tower for hundreds of years. Although he had not been refined yet, the demonic power of the Dark Demon Lord had also been greatly reduced. As soon as the Eight-Phase Demon Trapping Array came out, the Dark Demon Lord was suppressed again.

　　The dark demonic energy gathered around the Dark Demon Lord, becoming less and less, and the demon's body gradually appeared. At the same time, the Eight-phase Demon Trapping Array was also accumulating energy, and eight colorful lights covered the Dark Demon Lord, forming eight colorful rings, with colorful lights flowing between the rings, and electric carbide sparks flying everywhere. Eight colorful rings of different colors were suspended high in the air. From a distance, the shadows of the rings in the sky were like flickering lighthouses on a festival, illuminating the dark earth.

　　Li Qingfeng had just arrived. He saw that the elders had joined forces to cast the Eight-phase Demon-trapping Formation. He did not dare to disturb them, but secretly gathered his strength and summoned the "Burning Lamp Sword", always on guard against the Dark Demon Lord rushing out of the formation.

　　The disciples of the two sects around were all concentrating on watching the formation and had not noticed Li Qingfeng yet.

　　The ground shook violently, and a terrifying roar suddenly sounded. Following the roar, the Dark Demon Lord took out a magic weapon, which was a black halberd with many strange patterns engraved on the handle. The demonic energy condensed faster. Li Qingfeng clearly felt a terrifying pressure. The weaker disciples had already retreated ten feet away, but they still felt the pressure.

　　Eight colorful lights shot from eight directions towards the ring shadow hanging in the air. The shining white light was so strong that everyone closed their eyes. A huge and unparalleled force swept over, and even Li Qingfeng's current skills found it difficult to resist. He was pushed back by this force. The dull thunder mixed with bursts of roars shook the sky and the earth upside down, and the wind and clouds changed color.

　　The Dark Demon Lord howled madly, and he was about to take shape, but he also felt the powerful force of the Eight-Phase Demon-Trapping Array. Unfortunately, he could not spare any strength to resist, and could only roar in anger.

　　I saw a huge ball of light rushing towards the Dark Demon Lord. After a loud bang that shook the earth, the entire back mountain was filled with smoke and dust. A deep pit with a diameter of ten feet appeared directly in the center of the formation, and thick smoke columns rose into the sky.

　　The smoke gradually dispersed, and the demon head wrapped in black mist was blown to pieces, falling to the ground like a ball of flesh and blood. The surrounding demonic energy surged into the sky, and the fog was thick. Everyone was about to breathe a sigh of relief when Miaofa shouted, "Set up the formation again, quickly, don't let him condense the demon body again."

　　I saw the mass of flesh and blood moving around in the magic fog, and I saw the body and limbs of the Dark Demon Lord growing out of thin air and were rapidly condensing.

　　“Swish!”

　　Li Qingfeng reacted in time and used his Lingtian Heart Method at full power. His powerful magic power, which was comparable to that of a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage, was continuously transmitted to the Burning Lamp Sword. The Burning Lamp Sword struck towards the Dark Demon Lord as if it was wrapped in a ball of dazzling golden light.

　　With a scream of "Ah", the Dark Demon Lord's body, which had just condensed, was hit again by the sword which contained 100% of Li Qingfeng's strength, and it became a bloody mess and squirmed on the ground.

　　This was because the Dark Demon Lord had been sealed in the Demon Suppression Tower for too long, and was hit by the Eight-Phase Demon Trapping Formation as soon as he came out, so Li Qingfeng took advantage of him. Otherwise, with his strength as a demon king, even a master in the Return to Void Stage would not be able to hurt him.

　　The Dark Demon Lord knew that if he could not escape from the siege of these people today, he would probably die here. He was furious and had already put away his disdain for everyone.

　　"Ah! Ah! Ah! You actually forced me into this situation. I will kill you all!"

　　"The Devil's Soul Devours the Sky! Kill! Kill! Kill!"

　　The Dark Demon Lord had a ferocious look on his face, and he roared at everyone. With a loud bang, the Dark Demon Lord's body suddenly exploded, flesh and blood flew everywhere, and a ball of inky black demonic energy spread in all directions.

　　Miaofa and the others knew something was wrong, so they quickly used their magic weapons and set up a defensive formation around their bodies.

　　The disciples who were closer to the place had no time to react before the evil spirit quickly reached them. All they could hear were screams, and the disciples whose bodies were invaded by the evil spirit were quickly transformed into demons. Only a few disciples with higher skills were still struggling.

　　The demonized disciples completely lost their minds and madly attacked the disciples next to them who had not yet been demonized. For a moment, Lingyuan Temple was like hell on earth. The disciples were slaughtered by their own fellow disciples, and screams were heard everywhere.

　　Seeing this, Li Qingfeng's heart was broken, his eyes were red, but he couldn't move at all under the huge pressure of the demonic energy. Suddenly, the strange cold true energy hidden deep in his body burst out, and quickly moved around in his body, trying to find an outlet to vent. Li Qingfeng shouted loudly and attacked the place where the demonic energy gathered most densely.

　　The green gas column and the black demonic energy quickly met.

　　With a loud bang that shook the earth, Li Qingfeng felt that there was no energy left in his body. His body swayed and he passed out.

　　The black evil energy was hit hard again, and suddenly dimmed a lot. It no longer dared to stay. While everyone was in chaos, the rolling evil energy flew away into the distance like a long black snake, and disappeared without a trace after a while.

　　As the Dark Demon Lord fled, the evil spirit on the demonized disciples also dissipated. However, their eyes were lifeless and they stood there, staring blankly at the front. It was obvious that the evil spirit had entered their brains and turned them into useless people.

　　In just half a day, the Pure Land Sect became a living hell, and most of the three generations of disciples died in this battle.

　　"Amitabha!"

　　Miaofa had the most profound power and was the first to recover. He immediately used Buddhism to expel the remaining evil spirit.

　　Yuan Mu, who was always optimistic, was also saddened by this tragic scene. He seemed to have aged several dozen years. He sighed and said, "Buddha is merciful and subdues demons, why does he end up in such a miserable state?"

　　Yuan Xin was extremely sad, but still managed to say: "Junior brother, in order to maintain peace in the world, it is our nature to exorcise demons and monsters. Even if we are torn to pieces, what is there to fear?"

　　"Alas! But our Pure Land Sect has been in decline. I'm afraid it's not even a third-rate sect now." Yuan Mu said sadly.

　　"The ancient sages cultivated the truth within, and the unpolished jade and pure gold were one and the same. The wise are originally more willing to help others, and there is no one who understands them after going through the world. There are very few people who are different from others, and how can the world distinguish right from wrong? Who can ask about these things? When they recognize him, he is already gone. I also often persuade people to cultivate, but I am scolded when I persuade them to cultivate. The infatuation is like a spring dream, and I want to ask when I can wake you up. If you turn your heart to goodness, then turn back, turn over and jump into the ferry, and paddle yourself to get on board. When the catastrophe comes, I will not blame you."

　　A huge voice was chanting continuously, and the profound principles of Buddhism were like a gentle breeze blowing on one's face. Everyone's mood suddenly became much calmer, and most of the sadness was driven away.

　　It is the wonderful Dharma that chants the supreme Buddhist teachings in clear voice to cleanse the soul and avoid leaving shadows in the hearts of the remaining people, so that they will never have the chance to attain the Great Way again.

　　As Miao Fa was chanted, everyone followed along slowly. Gradually, their minds calmed down, and they began to help the injured disciples heal their wounds and clean the ground.

　　Miaofa walked to Qingfeng Li and transferred some of his internal energy into Qingfeng Li, who then slowly woke up.

　　"Master, where is the demon?" Qingfeng Li asked Yuan Mu with difficulty.

　　Yuan Mu sighed and said, "The Dark Lord devoured the souls of the other two demon kings. Although he has been suppressed for hundreds of years, his remaining strength is still very astonishing. If it weren't for our unresolved demon bodies and repeated attacks, I'm afraid the Pure Land Sect would have been destroyed by us today."

　　Seeing the tragic situation in the temple, Li Qingfeng felt as if his heart was broken by a knife. However, the three years of death barrier had made him very strong. Although he was grieving, his hatred for the Dark Demon Lord was even deeper. He knocked heavily on the ground and made a great wish to the vast world with his mind: "I, Li Qingfeng, make a vow here. I must eliminate this demon in this life and promote my Pure Land Sect. Otherwise, I will never be able to practice Taoism for the rest of my life!"

　　“Qingfeng, your master was right about you. It’s just that the entire burden is on you, and it’s hard for you!” Yuan Mu felt sorry for Li Qingfeng and quickly helped him up.

　　"Um!?"

　　Miaofa noticed the difference in Li Qingfeng and quickly showed it to him. The Lingtian Heart Method focuses on understanding and talent. Without talent and understanding, one cannot practice it no matter what. But once personal fate is reached, it is possible to break through several realms in a year. Everything depends on personal understanding and opportunity. It is precisely because of the stringent requirements of this method that no one in the Pure Land Sect has been able to practice it for hundreds of years.

　　Li Qingfeng's complexion was translucent, his blood was full, and there was a faint strange fragrance coming from his body. It was obvious that he had made great progress in practicing the Lingtian Heart Method.

　　Although he had not practiced Lingtian Heart Method, Miaofa was very familiar with the condition after practicing Lingtian Heart Method. His skin was as white as jade and his body had a faint fragrance, which were obviously the symptoms of practicing Lingtian Heart Method to the second level. However, the true energy in Li Qingfeng's body was endless, like a vast ocean, and the true energy that burst out was extremely cold Yin energy. Miaofa couldn't help but feel very confused.

　　"Uncle-master, when I was comprehending the ninth level of the Lingtian Heart Method, I secretly recited the Six-Syllable Mantra in my heart. As a result, the cold spiritual energy of the Jade Crystal Divine Bed all penetrated into the Qi Sea, and the Jade Crystal Divine Bed seemed to have lost its spiritual energy." Li Qingfeng's internal energy had gradually recovered, and he stood up and answered.

　　"Hahaha, great, I didn't expect you to have such an adventure. It means that God will not destroy our Pure Land Sect." Miaofa was extremely excited, and his worried look was gone.

　　11. Volume 1: The Birth of Ten Thousand Demons - Chapter 10: Going Down the Mountain

　　After Miao Fa's explanation, everyone understood why there was a strong cold and gloomy energy in Li Qingfeng's true qi.

　　It turns out that only those who have truly comprehended the ninth level of the Lingtian Heart Method and achieved the unity of yin and yang can absorb the spiritual energy and true essence of heaven and earth near the body to the maximum extent during practice. The cold true energy in Li Qingfeng's body is exactly the spiritual energy and true essence that has been gathered by the Jade Crystal Divine Spring for hundreds of years. However, Li Qingfeng's own true essence is too weak to fully absorb this powerful true essence, so this cold true energy will come out to cause trouble from time to time. If he can fully utilize it, his skills will advance by leaps and bounds, and will not only be at the current level.

　　After hearing what he said, everyone suddenly realized what was going on. No wonder he was able to beat the Dark Demon Lord so hard that he was seriously injured and fled!

　　Yuan Mu smiled and said, "Although our Pure Land Sect suffered heavy casualties this time, the Dark Demon Lord was severely injured by us and will not be able to do evil for at least a few years. This can be regarded as a great deed for the world!"

　　Miaofa knew that although the Dark Lord was severely injured by the crowd just now, it was mainly because his magic power was greatly reduced due to the long-term suppression of the magic trapping array, and he had not yet completely subdued the magic spirits of the two demon kings. If he completely subdued the magic souls of the two demons, he would probably be ten times more powerful than he is now. Miaofa sighed in his heart, but did not say it out loud.

　　Yuan Xin is not as optimistic as Yuan Mu: "But I'm afraid that our sect will never recover from this. This time, except for the Miao and Tian generations, more than a hundred disciples from the two sects were killed or injured, and the disciples who were demonized have lost their minds and are useless from now on."

　　"Master, I have made a new discovery while practicing Lingtian Heart Method this time. I wonder if it will be helpful to everyone in practicing Lingtian Heart Method." Li Qingfeng remembered the introduction to the Yin-Yang Combination Method he had read in that ancient book, which might be useful for everyone to understand Lingtian Heart Method, so he hurriedly said it out.

　　"What new discovery is it? Tell me about it." Miaofa suddenly opened his slightly closed eyes. After all, this was the first Pure Land Sect disciple who could practice Lingtian Heart Method in hundreds of years. Miaofa felt that it might be an important discovery. He became very interested and looked at Li Qingfeng eagerly.

　　Not to mention the wonderful method, the others stared at Li Qingfeng with their eyes wide open, as if a flower had suddenly grown on his face.

　　“I…I…I don’t know if what I’m thinking is right. Please don’t look at me like that…” Li Qingfeng felt a little embarrassed.

　　"Hurry up and tell me, are you trying to make us anxious to death?" Yuanmu was the most impatient person and didn't care about his master's face.

　　Li Qingfeng then spoke out what he had read in the unknown ancient book, and took out the ancient book he was carrying and gave it to Miaofa.

　　After listening to it, everyone felt that it was closely related to the ninth level of practicing the Lingtian Heart Method's Yin-Yang Combination, and they couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

　　Seeing that everyone in the hall was lost in thought, Li Qingfeng suddenly remembered the spirit ape. He had not seen it when he was cleaning up the back mountain just now, but it was a spirit beast after all, so it should be fine. Seeing that everyone might not wake up for a while, he set up a defense formation at the door and hurried out to look for the spirit ape.

　　After walking out of the main hall, Li Qingfeng was hesitating whether to go to the back mountain to take a look. He vaguely heard a noise coming from the side hall and could not help but run towards the side hall.

　　When he got closer, he saw the three brothers forming a big circle, and the spirit ape was half squatting on the ground, looking around nonchalantly.

　　The three disciples didn't pay much attention to the white ape at first, but they couldn't catch it even after trying their best. They were stuck here, and the ape couldn't escape. When they saw Li Qingfeng coming, Zhiyuan, the leader, hurriedly called out, "Brother Qingfeng, you just came. The white ape is so fast that we can't catch it even if we work together."

　　Before Qingfeng Li could open his mouth, the spirit ape saw Qingfeng Li coming and pounced on him, lying on Qingfeng Li's shoulders, holding on tightly and squeaking at the three people.

　　"My three brothers, this is the spirit ape I met on Qingyun Peak. It has been in the cave with me for three years." Li Qingfeng explained to the three brothers while saying to the spirit ape, "This is my brother. He means no harm. He was just teasing you. Don't be so stingy. Come down quickly."

　　The ape seemed to understand and jumped off Li Qingfeng's shoulder, but still looked at Zhiyuan and the other two in an unfriendly manner. Zhiyuan and the others were very surprised to see that the ape could understand human language, and they all gathered around, patting the ape's head and discussing it. The ape probably hadn't had anyone to play with it for a long time, and now that there were several people to play with it, it squeaked and gradually became happy.

　　A few people were talking happily when Miaofa and others came over.

　　"Spiritual ape, this is actually a spiritual ape. Where did you get it, Qingfeng? This spiritual ape is very rare to come across." Miaofa naturally knew that this was a very rare spiritual ape in the world. After all, it had lived for hundreds of years.

　　The spirit ape Xiaobai was wondering why everyone was staring at him today, so he kept screaming "squeak squeak squeak" and was very excited. Li Qingfeng ignored him and asked, "This spirit ape is no different from ordinary apes, it just has spirituality, there is nothing special about it." The spirit ape danced at Li Qingfeng, and seemed very dissatisfied with what he said. It seemed to be protesting, and screamed several times before stopping, leaning against Li Qingfeng. After a moment, his attention was attracted by the people around him, and he looked up and looked around.

　　Miaofa said seriously, "Don't underestimate it. I once heard from my master that this spirit ape reproduces very slowly and can live for thousands of years. It is a branch of the ancient spirit ape. There seem to be several pairs on Qingyun Peak, but no one has seen them. This spirit ape looks to be several dozen years old and is still young, just like a person at seven or eight years old. When it reaches adulthood, its spirituality will be fully revealed. It is said that it has strong attack power, but the spirit ape is peaceful by nature. It will not attack other creatures casually unless it is provoked."

　　Li Qingfeng didn't care either, he just thought it was a companion of his. Yuan Xin, Yuan Mu and others, seeing Miao Fa's high regard for the spirit ape, looked at it carefully, but didn't pay much attention to it.

　　Yuan Xin looked at Yuan Mu, who nodded slightly and said, "Notify all the disciples to come to the main hall. I have something to tell you."

　　Li Qingfeng didn't know what his master was going to say, so he went to the hall with everyone else.

　　Yuan Mu looked at His Highness' disciples and said, "A few days ago, the Dark Demon Lord killed hundreds of our disciples and fled. I'm afraid he will wreak havoc on the world again. I asked all of you to come here today because I want to select four of you to go down the mountain to experience some training."

　　Li Qingfeng and others were also moved.

　　Yuan Mu continued, "Qingfeng, Zhiyuan, Zhineng, and Qingyun are the four most outstanding disciples of our Chan and Esoteric sects. This time, the four of you will go down the mountain together. Our sect has been established for more than 800 years, and many talented people have emerged. Among them, there is a senior who has a very deep cultivation, named "Master Baoya". If we can find him and return to our sect, there will be hope for our sect to revive. The Dark Demon Lord escaped with injuries, so I sent you to investigate. But this demon is treacherous and vicious, so you must be careful."

　　The four of them said in unison: "Yes."

　　Yuan Mu nodded and said, "Besides, after you go down the mountain, please visit Tianyun Temple and Faxiang Temple. You must not be disrespectful in front of others, but you must not undermine the momentum of our Pure Land Sect."

　　The four of them looked at each other and agreed in unison.

　　12. Volume 1: The Rise of Ten Thousand Demons - Chapter 11: Scholar

　　Yuan Mu took a close look at the four younger disciples, and finally his gaze fell on Qingfeng Li. He waved and said, “Qingfeng, come here.”

　　Li Qingfeng was stunned for a moment, then walked forward. Yuan Mu looked him over carefully and said with a smile, "Qingfeng, you have the highest skill among the four of you, but you are also the youngest. You should discuss everything with the other brothers!"

　　Yuan Mu Zhenren smiled and took out something from his arms, handed it to Li Qingfeng, and said, "Take it."

　　Li Qingfeng took it and looked at it. It was a small tower with the two words "Zhen Yao" written on it. It was in an ancient shape with a bronze border and a sitting Buddha statue engraved on it. Holding it in his hand, he could vaguely feel that there was a huge power hidden in it.

　　Li Qingfeng immediately came to his senses and realized that the inconspicuous thing in his hand was the "Demon Suppression Tower", the most precious treasure of the sect to suppress demons and exorcise monsters. He knelt down quickly and said, "Thank you, Master."

　　Yuan Mu smiled and said, "No need. This time, it's hard to predict whether you will be lucky or not. With this magic weapon, you will have a 10% chance of success. Get up." Then he said to the others, "You go out first."

　　Knowing that he was going to teach Li Qingfeng the spell of the Demon Suppression Tower, everyone retreated together.

　　Yuan Mu carefully taught Li Qingfeng the spell to operate the Demon Suppression Tower. Li Qingfeng recited it silently several times and memorized it by heart.

　　Miao Fa glanced at him and said calmly: "You are now shouldering an important responsibility, and will shoulder the responsibility of reviving the Pure Land Sect. Don't let everyone down."

　　Qingfeng Li was startled, then lowered his head and whispered, "Yes, Uncle Master."

　　Miao Fa took out a package and said, "Here are the sword-flying techniques and Buddhist secrets of my Buddhist sect. Please accept them."

　　Qingfeng Li nodded and said, "Yes."

　　How to use magic weapons to fly in the air is actually simple. As long as you have a deep enough level of Taoism and the magic weapon is not too bad, you can use your own true energy and telekinesis to drive the magic weapon. However, although Li Qingfeng has enough skills and a good magic weapon, he mainly does not have a method to fly with a sword. Now he has all these, and all he needs to do is practice.

　　Miao Fa closed his eyes slightly and said slowly: "I am afraid this will be another catastrophe for the world. You should do your best. Tolerance makes you great, and lack of desire makes you strong. Go."

　　Qingfeng Li immediately said, "Yes, disciple will remember it."

　　The Pure Land Sect has an ancient precept that the person who can cultivate the Lingtian Heart Method will be the next leader of the Pure Land Sect. However, Li Qingfeng's cultivation is still shallow and he needs more experience. Yuan Mu handed the Demon Suppression Tower to him, which is actually placing the future hopes of the Pure Land Sect on him. However, Li Qingfeng has only been practicing for a short time and is not yet able to take on such a big responsibility. Therefore, the elders discussed and decided to wait until Li Qingfeng's cultivation is deep before announcing the matter of appointing a leader to the sect to the world.

　　However, all the disciples, including Li Qingfeng, were unaware of this. However, Li Qingfeng had made great contributions in repelling the Dark Demon Lord this time, so the disciples had no objection to rewarding him with magic weapons.

　　After Zhiyuan, Zhineng and Qingxuan had packed up, they waited for Li Qingfeng outside the main hall.

　　Zhineng said with a smile: "You are lucky. I was worried that you wouldn't be able to pass this time!"

　　Li Qingfeng knew that he was talking about practicing the Lingtian Heart Method. Being with him, he immediately felt much more relaxed. He smiled and said, "Yeah, I almost failed to pass the ninth level, too."

　　Zhiyuan patted his shoulder, looked him over and over, and whispered, "Catch a spirit ape for me later?

　　Li Qingfeng said with a bitter face: "Do you think this is an ordinary monkey? I just happened to meet one. Didn't you listen to what Master said? It's very difficult to meet one."

　　Zhiyuan looked at his expression and knew that what the master said was true, so he didn't ask any more questions.

　　Qingxuan smiled and said to Li Qingfeng: "Junior Brother Qingfeng, is the Demon Suppression Tower that Master Uncle passed down to you powerful?

　　Li Qingfeng smiled and said, "The Demon Suppression Tower is the most precious treasure of our Pure Land Sect. It is naturally powerful. I am just afraid that my practice is not enough! Haha, all right, let's tell Master and the others and go down the mountain."

　　Zhiyuan nodded, Zhineng and Qingxuan were all smiles. Going down the mountain was also a happy event for them.

　　The Lingyuan Peak where Li Qingfeng is located is located in the southeast corner of the "Zhongzhou" continent, which is the junction of "Zhongzhou" and "Yunzhou" and "Dapingzhou". "Tianyun Temple" and "Fashang Temple" are both located in the south of Zhongzhou, about one thousand kilometers away from Lingyuan Temple. However, for these practitioners, it only takes five days to get there quickly, and if they fly with a sword, it only takes half a day.

　　Zhineng, Zhiyuan and the others had not been down the mountain for a while and wanted to take a good walk. Besides, the master did not say how long he would take to return to the temple, so they decided to go to the imperial city of Zhongzhou first, and then to Tianyun Temple and Fashang Temple.

　　After five days, they arrived at the imperial city. It was already afternoon when they entered the city. The four of them changed out of their monk robes and put on ordinary long gowns that ordinary people wear. The spirit ape followed them and looked around. It had never seen so many people before, and it jumped around excitedly.

　　I heard someone walking by and reciting a poem: "Since ancient times, this was the imperial state, lush and green. Four hundred years have become a dream, which is worrying. The clothes and hats of the Jin Dynasty have become ancient hills. Wandering around the water, climbing up the city walls and even the towers. Don't ask about the past, look back. Outside the railings, the Yangtze River flows by itself."

　　After listening to the poet, Li Qingfeng could not help but look at him. He saw a young man dressed in gorgeous clothes, who looked to be about eighteen or nineteen years old, with clear curves on his face. He was truly a handsome young man in this corrupt world. Li Qingfeng was about to step forward to greet him, but before he could open his mouth, he saw him leisurely walking into the city. Li Qingfeng had no choice but to give up.

　　The four of them came to a hotel in the city and ordered some food and drinks. In fact, according to the cultivation level of Li Qingfeng and others, it would be fine if they didn't eat for ten days or half a month, but this long-term accumulated habit could not be changed in a short time. The Pure Land Sect disciples did not avoid alcohol when practicing. As the saying goes, "Cultivating saints lies in cultivating the mind, and cultivating Buddhas lies in purifying thoughts." Zhineng and others ordered some food and drinks. While they were drinking, they saw a man walking in from outside the hotel. It was the poet they met at the city gate.

　　The scholar had a fair complexion and a gentlemanly look. He said, "Bring me some wine!" The bartender nodded and hurriedly brought the wine. He poured a large glass and drank it slowly.

　　At this moment, footsteps sounded at the store entrance, and seven big men walked in. They wore cowhide pants, and their braids were piled on top of their heads, shining brightly. The seven men were all muscular, and when they stretched out their hands, their palms and fingers were all huge. As soon as the seven men came in, they shouted loudly: "My young master has booked this store, and all the outsiders leave immediately!"

　　When the people nearby saw this force, they all quickly paid their bills and left. Only the young scholar and Li Qingfeng sat there motionless.

　　A big man walked towards the young scholar and shouted, "Didn't you hear me? Get out now."

　　"roll"

　　The scholar moved his hand slightly, and a white mist rushed towards the strong man. The strong man flew out of the door and fell heavily to the ground, crying in pain and unable to stand up for a long time.

　　Zhineng and others wanted to help, but when they saw that the scholar was also a cultivator with a high level of cultivation, they knew that these strong men were definitely no match for him. No matter how powerful a martial artist was, it was impossible for him to beat a cultivator. After all, they were not on the same level, so they stopped worrying and continued to eat.

　　Li Qingfeng secretly used his spiritual sense to explore and found that the internal energy of this weak scholar was not weak. His skills and intelligence were comparable to theirs, probably at the level of Heshen period, but still far behind Li Qingfeng.

　　The other six strong men glared at the scholar fiercely and were about to attack when they heard someone outside say, "Back off, you are no match for him."

　　Two people walked in leisurely from outside the door. The one walking in front was a frivolous young man who looked obviously like a bad boy. He was wearing brocade clothes and holding a pure black fan with a peculiar pendant hanging on it. Behind him followed a middle-aged man in a black robe who seemed to be floating, making it impossible to see his face clearly.

　　Li Qingfeng used his spiritual sense to take a look and was shocked. The boastful young man's skills were average, but the person behind him was so powerful that even Li Qingfeng could not figure out his strength.

　　13. Volume 1: The Birth of Ten Thousand Demons - Chapter 12: The Darkness Exorcist

　　"Master, this androgynous scholar not only refused to go out, but also injured our people." The leader of the seven strong men saw the young master coming and hurried forward to complain, looking at the pale-faced scholar with hatred.

　　"I think you don't practice well in your daily life, and just go out to have fun. Humph, you dare to go against us, you are very brave. Let me see who you are." The boastful young man didn't take the pale-faced scholar seriously at all, and waved his fan and was about to step forward.

　　"Young master, why do you have to do it yourself? Let me do it for you." The man in black saw that the white-faced scholar was very powerful and knew that he was not someone that his young master could handle. Fearing any mishap, he hurried forward.

　　"Okay, Elder Hei, hurry up, I don't want to wait any longer." The boastful young man retreated to the back, and the strong men behind him quickly moved a chair to help him sit down. The shop owner next door saw that the situation was not good and wanted to come out to persuade them, but was glared at by the strong men and hid in the back and did not dare to come out.

　　A faint black gas grew rapidly, forming a chi-wide sword of gas that attacked the pale-faced scholar. The scholar used a small flying sword to meet it, and a white light and a black gas collided with each other. Under the collision of the gas, a big hole was broken in the hotel, and dust fell down.

　　Zhineng had the worst temper and was about to go up to the back table, but Zhiyuan quickly stopped him. Zhiyuan was the most mature of the four and could see that these two were not easy to mess with, so it was better to wait and see what happened.

　　There was no way to fight in the store, so the man in black flashed outside the store and looked at the scholar with a gloomy look.

　　Those sturdy men and the boastful young man had already stood far away, and were intentionally blocking the people around who were watching the fun. When the people around saw that they were not ordinary people, they were scared and hid away. Soon, only Li Qingfeng and his three friends and the scholar were left in front of the store.

　　The man in black summoned a black flying sword magic weapon, which floated in the air. Black mist was wrapped around the sword. He hit the young man frantically, with a ferocious face and evil eyes. He said grimly: "You stinky scholar, you are still a little naive. You'd better surrender obediently. Hahaha, as long as you kneel down and kowtow three times to our young master, we will let you go." The boastful young man laughed wildly when he heard it from behind, with a smug look on his face.

　　The scholar's face turned red with anger. Hearing this, he said, "Dream on. We'll talk about it when you can beat me."

　　The scholar was holding a slender flying sword that was gleaming with white light. He was muttering something as the flying sword slowly turned around. Li Qingfeng was secretly using his true energy, ready to help the scholar when he was in trouble. Zhineng and the others were dazzled by what they saw, thinking: "Why is that man in black using what seems to be the magic of the Demon Cult? Could he be a member of the Demon Cult? This is bad. The demons of the Demon Cult are always cunning and scheming. The scholar may not be their opponent."

　　The black elder was furious, and without any pretense, he came to the scholar's side in the blink of an eye and slashed a palm in the air. The power of this palm was amazing, and black air enveloped it, accompanied by the sound of wind and thunder, and a strong fishy smell.

　　The scholar was shocked and flew backwards. A white light suddenly appeared in the air. He shouted loudly, and the sword in his hand drew a perfect trajectory and headed towards the palm.

　　The black elder chuckled and advanced instead of retreating. He swung his black sword as fast as lightning to meet the long sword swung by the scholar. His left hand continued to move forward and pressed towards the scholar.

　　The scholar was horrified and gathered all his energy, ready to fight.

　　There was a loud "bang" and the scholar was knocked back repeatedly, apparently he could only defend himself.

　　The black sword, driven by the black elder, struck the scholar with all its might. The scholar was powerless to resist and was about to die on the spot. He closed his eyes and thought to himself, "I don't know where my father and the others are. I didn't expect that I would die here without knowing why."

　　"when!"

　　Suddenly, he heard a burst of powerful energy breaking through the air, followed by a series of angry roars from the man in black. He opened his eyes in surprise and found that the young man among the four people in the hotel was standing next to him and confronting the man in black. The man in black had a few traces of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth. He looked at the man with viciousness and a sinister light flashing in his eyes. It was obvious that he had suffered a loss when he was caught off guard.

　　The boastful young man was not worried when he saw that each of these people was more powerful than the other. In his opinion, no matter how powerful they were, they could not be better than this black old man.

　　Zhi Yuan and his companions were even less worried. If the first person who could practice the Ling Tian Heart Method couldn't do it, who else could? They all stood by and watched the two fight. Only the spirit ape was the most excited, lying on Zhi Yuan's shoulder, squeaking, as if the scene was a little less exciting.

　　The man in black wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his hand, then licked it, smiled bitterly, and shouted, "Boy, who are you? How dare you ruin my good deeds?

　　Li Qingfeng felt sick at heart, and secretly used the Lingtian Heart Technique, and laughed coldly: "It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is that the demons of the Demon Sect can be killed by everyone. How dare you commit murder in broad daylight? Do you still take us seriously?"

　　The man in black was stunned when he heard this, then he became furious. No one had ever dared to say such words to him before. He was so angry that he was fuming and roaring, wishing he could tear Qingfeng Li into pieces.

　　The scholar tried hard to hold back his laughter, with a painful expression, and paid attention to the tall man in front of him. He had long hair, broad shoulders and back, a thin waist and long legs, and the lines on his face were as strong and powerful as if they were cut by a knife or an axe, full of masculinity.

　　The black-clothed man's face turned pale and blue, with a fierce look in his eyes. He stared at Li Qingfeng with his black sword raised at an angle.

　　Li Qingfeng was stunned, thinking: "What is he doing? Why isn't he moving? Is he playing any tricks? Who cares? If he doesn't move, I won't move either. Let's see who has better patience."

　　Just like that, the two of them stared at each other like cross-eyed, and the scene was a bit weird.

　　Suddenly, I heard the scholar shouting, "Hurry, he is accumulating his power."

　　Li Qingfeng thought to himself, "It's a good opportunity to test the power of my Second Heavenly Spiritual Heart Technique!" Just as he was about to speak, he heard the man in black chuckle, rise into the air, holding the black sword high, with demonic energy surging, and grinning, "Let you have a taste of my 'Yin Ming Exorcist Technique'."

　　Li Qingfeng knew something was wrong, and he quickly activated his Buddhist essence. Golden light and Buddhist energy shone brightly on his body, and the black demonic energy was instantly diluted a lot.

　　He hurriedly chanted the six-syllable mantra, secretly formed the immovable Vajra seal with his hands, and shouted loudly.

　　"Hey!"

　　The Burning Lamp Sword flew out like lightning, and the true essence of Buddhism was continuously transmitted into the sword body. The sword body emitted a dazzling light, and there was a faint sound of wind and thunder whistling in it, like the Buddhas singing together and the sound of bells and drums.

　　The 'Six-Syllable Mantra' mixed with the true essence of the highest Buddhist teachings was so powerful when he exerted his full strength that the demon was immediately shaken out of consciousness, as if he had been hit on the head with a stick, and the continuous Buddhist chanting was heard in his ears.

　　Li Qingfeng took advantage of this opportunity to strike first. He clasped his hands together and shouted, "Hurry!" He flew up. The sword body, which was filled with strong internal energy, turned into a huge ball of golden light, which flew across a ten-foot area like a meteor and rushed towards the black-clothed man in front of him.

　　The man in black regained consciousness instantly, and after a closer look, he found that the golden light was less than two feet away from him. In great fear, he quickly used the "Yinming Exorcist Skill", and a black gas like a tidal wave surged out of his body, with an extremely foul odor. The dark wind roared in the black gas, as if countless resentful spirits were calling out, and the momentum was extremely domineering.

　　This "Yin Ming Quling Gong" is a demonic Yin Gong, extremely vicious and overbearing. It uses the magic power to absorb the blood of newborn babies and transform into evil spirits. This skill is extremely cruel and has long disappeared from the world. Unexpectedly, it reappeared. Li Qingfeng did not recognize this skill, but when he saw the howling Yin wind and the demonic energy soaring into the sky, he knew it must be a demonic skill, so he mercilessly used all his strength to meet it.

　　The two great skills collided in mid-air. The Lingtian Heart Method, which contains the supreme Buddhist Dharma, can be said to be the nemesis of the demon world's magic.

　　When the golden and black air masses met, a huge amount of energy burst out instantly, and the two people were shocked at the same time and bounced back.

　　In the air, golden light was shining brightly and black air was surging, crisscrossing and entangled in the air. Wherever it reached, the soil was lifted up and the sound of explosions was like thunder, endless.

　　The people watching were terrified. They saw dirt flying everywhere and most of the hotel nearby had been reduced to ashes by the impact of the energy. The building was in a mess.

　　Li Qingfeng's blood was shaken to the point of surging, and his meridians felt as if they were burning with pain. If he had not practiced the Lingtian Heart Method, opened up most of the mysterious gates, and greatly increased his cultivation, and had not used the Six-Syllable Mantra to resist the attack of negative energy, he would probably have vomited blood and died long ago.

　　The man in black in front was also horrified, his hair was disheveled, and the black aura was greatly reduced.

　　This was Li Qingfeng's first battle, and the opponent he met was a strong enemy, but he was not afraid. During the battle, the strong pressure made his mind clearer. The parts of the Lingtian Heart Method that he didn't understand in the past were now solved one by one. He felt that the circulation of the true energy in his body was becoming smoother and smoother. The Ran Deng sword in his hand trembled slightly, and he was ready to move under the stimulation of the demonic energy.

　　Li Jufeng suddenly felt heroic, he soared into the sky, let out a long roar, changed to the seal of subduing demons and monsters, chanted the Great Bright Mantra, and rushed up again.

　　Seeing that Li Qingfeng was able to hold his own despite the full force of Yinming Quling Gong, and that there were three other people who seemed difficult to deal with, the boastful young man's expression suddenly changed, and he seemed a little restless.

　　The man in black was furious and anxious. From the fight, he intuitively discovered that his opponent's cultivation was very special, and there seemed to be a huge amount of true energy in his body, but he just couldn't control it. He was shocked and scared for a moment. Seeing Li Qingfeng attacking again, he had no choice but to raise the black sword and use the "Yinming Exorcist Gong" to operate at full power.

　　The ghosts in the sky gathered around the man in black quickly, forming a huge dark red ghost about three feet tall, and rushed towards Li Qingfeng with its fangs and claws bared. The man in black seemed to be exhausted, his face was pale, and he seemed to be unable to fight anymore. He stood behind the evil ghost, staring at Li Qingfeng and others fiercely.

　　The dark red ghost was seen emitting thick black energy, with its eyes as big as fists, and it rushed towards Qingfeng Li while screaming.

　　14. Volume 1: The Birth of Ten Thousand Demons - Chapter 13: Evil Ghosts

　　The Black Elder had a hideous face and looked like an evil ghost. It was obvious that summoning evil ghosts was a huge burden for him.

　　He gasped and roared: "Kill them for me. You dare to go against me, you are dead!" He was extremely angry. The Yin spirits he had absorbed with great difficulty were contributed to this evil ghost. It would take several years of practice to catch so many Yin spirits again. He didn't know how much he hated Li Qingfeng and the others in his heart.

　　The evil ghost floated in the air like a black cloud, holding a pitch-black fork and pouncing towards Li Qingfeng with its fangs bared. There were constant howling sounds inside the black cloud, as if there were hundreds of thousands of evil spirits crying.

　　The fork, which had absorbed countless evil spirits, was filled with ghostly energy and emitted a dark red color like blood. As the evil ghost pointed angrily, the black fork shot towards Li Qingfeng at an extremely fast speed like an arrow. Suddenly, a ball of black air covered an area of ten feet in radius, and the momentum was very shocking.

　　The scholar looked at the huge evil ghost with a pale face, and only then did he feel the true strength of the man in black. He couldn't help but feel scared. If it weren't for the help of the young man just now, if he were alone, he would probably have been eaten by the evil ghost and died without a burial place.

　　"Everyone, come together, this is an evil ghost from hell!" Seeing that the situation was not good, Zhiyuan hurriedly joined the camp. Zhineng and others took out their magic weapons and rushed forward. The scholar also rushed up with his flying sword.

　　Li Qingfeng was the first to be hit. He felt as if he was surrounded by thousands of troops. Above him was a black fork with a ghostly aura and gusts of cold wind, and all around him was pervasive black ghost energy. He couldn't help but be secretly surprised. He didn't expect to encounter such a powerful person from the Demon Sect when he just started out.

　　This Black Elder was no ordinary demon cultivator, but a Black Elder of a very high status in the Demon Cult. He had at least a hundred years of skills and a very deep cultivation. If it weren't for the fact that Li Qingfeng's Lingtian Heart Method had a great restraint on him, even if five people attacked him together, they would have found it difficult to defeat him.

　　The black fork flashed with an eerie light and rushed towards Li Qingfeng with a cloud of black air.

　　Li Qingfeng exerted the power of 'Lingtian Heart Method' and 'Ran Deng Sword' to the limit. In the golden light all over the sky, the sword was like a swimming dragon and the energy was like a flying rainbow. The dazzling golden light blocked the black fork ten meters away.

　　However, the black mist-like ghostly aura still slowly approached.

　　The various magical weapons in the sky were dazzling, facing the ghost fork with a black pet shield.

　　"Bang!" There was a clanging sound of metal collision. Under the swirling black air, five magic weapons of different shapes suddenly collided with the ghost fork. Huge energy suddenly exploded under the fierce collision, and the black air in the sky immediately dissipated.

　　The evil ghost screamed angrily, and it seemed that he had suffered a great loss. He roared and his body shrank a little, and was almost the same size as the others. Li Qingfeng and others found it strange. We were not afraid of you when you were three meters tall. Can you beat us when you become smaller?

　　Zhineng yelled at the top of his voice: "Are you tired of changing all the time? Hurry back or I'll beat you to death."

　　The spirit ape was hiding behind Li Qingfeng and the others. It seemed to sense something was wrong and started to squeak loudly, scratching its ears and cheeks, looking very uneasy.

　　Li Qingfeng noticed that the energy in the evil ghost's body had increased greatly, and it seemed to be even stronger than before. He couldn't help but be alert and shouted, "Everyone be careful, set up the formation."

　　The four of them quickly set up a 'Four Phases Demon Subduing Formation' to protect the scholar and the ape. Although the Four Phases Demon Subduing Formation was only one-fourth as powerful as the 'Eight Phases Demon Subduing Formation', its biggest advantage was that it was extremely defensive and could be used for both defense and attack, making it invincible.

　　The man in black was shocked when he saw the four people setting up the Four Phases Demon Subduing Formation. He shouted, "What is your relationship with Lingyuan Temple? How can you set up the Eight Phases Demon Subduing Formation?"

　　Just as Zhineng was about to speak, Zhiyuan quickly answered, "What Lingyuan Temple? I don't know. You mean this formation? This is the 'Four Gates Formation of Heaven and Earth', not the Eight Phases Demon Subduing Formation you mentioned." At the same time, he sent a message to Zhineng and others, "This person may be a member of the Demon Sect. He seems to have a high status. Don't reveal your master before you know him well."

　　The man in black snorted twice and said nothing more. After all, he had only heard of the Pure Land Sect's 'Eight-phase Demon-subduing Formation''s immense power but had never seen it in person.

　　The evil ghost had already become impatient and when he saw the man in black retreating to the back, he rushed forward waving his ghost fork.

　　"Sleepy"

　　Li Qingfeng shouted loudly, and the Lantern Sword flew out in a ball of golden light. Zhineng and others were not to be outdone, and they used their magic weapons to quickly rotate around the evil ghost. The four magic weapons gradually formed a circular light curtain, slowly moving towards the evil ghost in the formation.

　　The evil ghost was roaring and rushing towards Li Qingfeng and others. Suddenly, he felt pain all over his body like being pricked by needles. He was horrified. He looked around and found that he had been covered by a conical light curtain. The golden light that seemed to be real was like sharp needles shooting at his body and piercing his muscles. At this time, the ghost energy in the sky was also broken in the golden light. He was very angry and kept screaming. He used his huge body to hit the light curtain fiercely. His impact was so powerful that the four magic weapons in the sky shook violently, and the golden light that shot down was also in chaos. Li Qingfeng was better, but Qingxuan and others felt a little overwhelmed. They all used their full strength to activate the magic weapons and did not dare to relax at all.

　　The frail scholar was unable to help outside the formation, his eyes nearly bulging out of his head. He was really worried that the evil ghost would rush out, but after seeing that the evil ghost had hit them several times, everyone was able to hold back except for shaking.

　　"Qingfeng, use your 'Demon Suppression Tower' quickly." Zhiyuan shouted.

　　"Okay, watch me subdue the demon!!" Li Qingfeng hurriedly pinched the magic formula and controlled the Demon-Suppressing Tower to suppress the evil spirit. The Demon-Suppressing Tower only moved slightly and it drained at least 30% of Li Qingfeng's true energy. If one's cultivation level was low, the ancient magic weapon could not be controlled at all. If Li Qingfeng's cultivation level had not increased greatly, the magic power in his body would have been drained in one go.

　　As he chanted the spiritual spell, the Demon-Suppressing Tower slowly rose up, covering the top of the evil ghost's head, and emitted a golden light with a diameter of more than ten feet, covering the evil ghost.

　　The evil ghost saw a black shadow covering it, like a dark cloud covering the sun. He didn't know what it was, and it emitted a soft golden light. He didn't take it seriously, but just gathered his ghost energy and formed a huge ball of air in his hand, ready to pierce the light curtain with one blow.

　　The devil laughed strangely, feeling proud, when the soft golden light was approaching his body. The black mist covering his body evaporated as soon as it touched the golden light. He had no ability to resist at all, and was horrified. He hit the black gas in his hand at the golden light with all his strength. He opened his mouth wide, and countless ghosts flew out of his mouth, madly hitting the light curtain formed by the "Eight Phases Demon Subduing Formation". As soon as the ghosts hit the light curtain, they were dissolved by the golden light emitted by the light curtain, but countless ghosts continued to fly out of the evil ghost's mouth, rushing towards the light curtain continuously.

　　The golden light of the light curtain shook violently under the impact of the evil spirits released by the evil ghosts. With every impact, everyone's faces became paler and they felt the pressure surging and it was a bit overwhelmed. The golden light of the light curtain also dimmed a lot under the strong impact, but it was still playing the role of trapping the demons.

　　Seeing this, the man in black no longer cared whether the evil spirit could deal with Li Qingfeng and the others. He turned into a ball of black mist and covered the boastful young man as he fled into the distance, shouting as he ran: "You are dead. How dare you offend my Yin Yue Sect? I will definitely kill you and feed you to my evil spirit."

　　Suddenly, there was a thunderous roar that shook the earth. As the golden light slowly approached, the evil ghost suddenly turned into a black mist and rushed towards the pale light curtain that had been hit by the evil spirit.

　　There was a crackling sound, and the ground beneath him instantly cracked into countless fine cracks, winding into the distance. At the same time, the earth began to tremble slightly, and the light curtain shook violently.

　　The black fog drilled into the crack in the ground and disappeared in front of everyone in an instant.

　　Everyone felt the pressure disappear. Li Qingfeng said with regret, "Alas, he finally got away. However, the evil spirits devoured by this evil ghost have been almost destroyed. I'm afraid he can no longer do evil in the world."

　　Li Qingfeng knew that his ability to control the Demon Suppression Pagoda was not good enough, otherwise the power of the pagoda alone would be enough to beat the evil ghost to death. He thought to himself: "I still have too little practical experience. I must be more familiar with magic weapons, otherwise it will not be so easy next time I encounter a more powerful enemy."

　　15. Volume 1: The Birth of Ten Thousand Demons - Chapter 14: Making New Friends

　　As Qingfeng Li was sighing, he suddenly heard the scholar's voice behind him: "Thank you for saving me, little one... Well, I will never forget it."

　　Li Qingfeng thought to himself, "Why is this guy so hesitant?" He turned around and said with a smile, "You are too polite, brother. What is your name?

　　The scholar smiled and said, "You can call me Rui'er. What's your name?"

　　“I’m Li Qingfeng, these are my fellow apprentices.” Li Qingfeng thought, “Rui’er, why does it sound a bit like a girl’s name?”

　　Li Qingfeng didn't think any more, waved his hand at the scholar, and said with a smile: "Brother Rui'er, be careful when you are alone outside in the future. We are leaving first."

　　When the scholar saw that he was about to leave, he became anxious and quickly chased after him, saying, "Wait for me."

　　Li Qingfeng glanced back and found that the scholar was following him closely. Seeing him turn around, he smiled playfully. He then realized that the scholar was very handsome, with a strong scent of rouge. He might be a disciple of that big sect. He had never left the mountain and was so weak. So he smiled and said, "The demon sect is rampant now. You'd better go back early. It's very dangerous to be alone outside."

　　The scholar made a face at him and said angrily, "I won't go back. I finally ran away from home. I won't go back."

　　Li Qingfeng couldn't help but smile bitterly and asked, "Then why do you always follow me?"

　　Rui Er tilted her head, her eyes rolling around, and said with a smile: "I have nowhere to go anyway, why don't we go together? I'll cover all your accommodation expenses, is that okay?

　　Before Li Qingfeng could say anything, Qingxuan shouted, "Okay, okay, then I want to eat well and live well." After saying that, he made a face at Zhiyuan and the others with a smug look on his face.

　　Li Qingfeng and the others were open-minded by nature, so they didn't care about the cost of food and lodging. They thought to themselves, "I don't know whose family this young man is from. Anyway, we are not familiar with the outside world, so we can let him be our guide."

　　"Okay, let's go together. Let's quickly find an inn to stay in and find out the origins of the man in black." Everyone agreed, and the group of five went to the inn.

　　The five of them had never been out of the house and had no idea how dangerous the world was. However, they were all young and had just experienced a life-and-death battle together. Their relationship became much closer and soon, they became like old friends.

　　As for the escaped man in black, they didn't know where to start tracking him down and put him aside for the time being. However, the people in the Demon Cult were vindictive and would not let them go easily.

　　Dozens of miles outside the city, there is an extremely secluded place.

　　In an extremely large hall, many people stood quietly on both sides of the hall according to their status. Standing in the middle was the man in black who had fought with Li Qingfeng and his men.

　　In the dark hall, the stone walls were faintly red, and looked like blood. In the corners of the stone walls, there were often skulls of ferocious animals, as hideous decorations.

　　"Elder Hei, where do those people come from?"

　　"Reporting to the hall master, one of them seems to be from 'Sifang City'. He uses the 'Qinyue Sword' of Sifang City. As for the other four, we can't figure them out, but they seem to be from Buddhism." The man in black lowered his head, his body seemed to be shaking a little, and it seemed that he was very afraid of this hall master.

　　This is the location of a branch of the Yin Yue Sect, a cult that has suddenly risen in recent years.

　　Standing on the high platform above the main hall was Lie Feng, the leader of the Ghost Hall, one of the three leaders of the Yin Yue Sect.

　　Liefeng was very tall, wearing a blood-red cloak and an armor that looked like silk but not silk, and like iron but not iron. There were many dark red patterns engraved on the armor, and on his chest was a devil's head engraved with a hideous face, which was extremely scary.

　　"Sifang City is far away in 'Yunzhou'. How could their people appear here? There are also Buddhists. The nearest one is Lingyuan Temple. After the battle with the Dark Demon Lord three hundred years ago, no one from them came down the mountain. How could someone come down the mountain this time, and four of them at that?"

　　Lie Feng thought secretly: "Whoever dares to destroy the Yinyue Sect's plan must be killed. They are just a few young monks. There is no need to care about them, but we still need to investigate them. The leader's son is also the same. The leader has so many masters around him, but he took our people and almost got into trouble."

　　“Elder Black, thank you for doing your best to protect the young master this time, fortunately nothing happened. However, you have destroyed the prestige of my Yin Yue Sect this time, and you must be punished.” After saying that, Lie Feng waved his right hand, and a black shadow pounced on Elder Black. Elder Black's face gradually turned gray, but he forced himself not to say a word.

　　After a while, Liefeng waved his hand to take back the black shadow, his face was ferocious, and he laughed wildly: "Whoever dares to go against my Yinyue Sect, no matter who it is, I will make him scream for three days and three nights before executing him. My monster has not drunk the blood of Buddhists for a long time. It will be very happy to suck the blood of those people, hahahaha..."

　　A terrifying aura emanated from Liefeng. His cultivation was extremely high. Under his might, everyone in the hall trembled in fear and dared not look up.

　　Li Qingfeng and the others were still unaware that they had been targeted by the Yin Yue Sect, and did not take to heart what Elder Hei said before he left.

　　Li Qingfeng and his companions found an inn. After a simple meal, Li Qingfeng distributed some of the pills that his master had given him when he came out to Zhiyuan and the other two. At least the scholar was born in a wealthy family, so he would have no shortage of magic weapons and pills.

　　Going out to gain experience is also a kind of cultivation, and it is the most challenging for disciples' character and cultivation. After the battle, Li Qingfeng gained a lot, and he was ready to take this opportunity to practice and see if he could break through the realm and reach the next level. He still had nearly a thousand pills of the 'Ju Yuan Dan' he refined, which was enough for him to practice.

　　The five people chose five connected rooms, with each of them having a separate room and resting in their rooms.

　　As the night deepened, the spirit ape lay at the end of Li Qingfeng's bed and fell asleep quietly. The day had been full of ups and downs, and it was a little tired.

　　Li Qingfeng sat cross-legged on the bed, took out a top-grade elixir, put it in his mouth, and practiced meditation. He felt the golden elixir glittering in his Qi Sea. Looking carefully, he saw a tiny man sitting cross-legged in the middle of the golden elixir. As the true essence in the Qi Sea circulated, the golden elixir grew a lot, and the head and body of the man could be vaguely seen, but it was too small to see his features clearly.

　　Li Qingfeng knew that he was about to cross the second level of the 'Lingtian Heart Method' to gather Qi and form a pill, and enter the third level to form a pill and obtain an infant. He did not dare to be impatient, and slowly focused his mind on the infant in his body, guiding the extremely cold Yin Qi deep in his body's sea of qi to flow around the eight extraordinary meridians in his body.

　　Every time the Yuan Dan rotated, it would automatically emit some warm true Qi to merge with it. After rotating for dozens of times, the baby in the Yuan Dan grew a little bigger, to about two inches, and its eyebrows and expression could be vaguely seen.

　　Li Qingfeng's body contains hundreds of years of spiritual energy and true energy from the Jade Crystal Divine Spring. No one knows to what extent his cultivation will improve if he absorbs all of it. The spiritual energy accumulated over a hundred years is extraordinary. It will take at least several decades for the Jade Crystal Divine Spring to recover.

　　Li Qingfeng moved his mind, and the Nascent Soul slowly flew out from the Baihui acupoint on the top of his head. He tried to control the Nascent Soul to look at himself, and saw that he was sitting cross-legged on the bed. He looked at himself sitting on the bed from the top of his head. That feeling was really strange. Li Qingfeng did not dare to let the Nascent Soul stay outside for too long. The Nascent Soul was very consuming when it left the body, and the Nascent Soul was still very fragile when it was just formed. It needed to be constantly nurtured with the True Essence. Only when the Nascent Soul was transformed into the Primordial Spirit, then the world would be truly vast and I could gallop freely.

　　PS: Based on the cultivation of Yuanying, Li Qingfeng shouted: All book friends, do you want to cultivate Buddhism? Then bring your collections!!! And votes!!!

　　This book is different from ordinary fantasy novels and has a different setting. I hope book lovers will like it.

　　16. Volume 1: The Birth of Ten Thousand Demons - Chapter 15: Traveling Together

　　The rooster crows and the east gradually turns brighter.

　　Li Qingfeng slowly stopped, and overnight his power went from the second level of Qi gathering into Dan to the third level of Dan into Ying. If one could cultivate the Nascent Soul to the extreme, the Nascent Soul into a Spirit, and cultivate it into a Spirit, then it would be equivalent to a level 1 Earth Immortal.

　　The autumn weather is clear and the white clouds are floating.

　　Li Qingfeng and his companions just came down from the mountain gate and took the guide they found to tour the imperial city.

　　The Zhongzhou Imperial City is the largest in area and has the most magnificent buildings among all the cities in the thirteen continents. The entire city consists of two parts: the Palace City and the Inner Imperial City. The Palace City and the Inner Imperial City are located in the central area of the entire imperial city, facing south and back to the north, with a magnificent and spectacular appearance. The Palace City is where the Emperor of Zhongzhou lives. It is located in the northernmost part and is the core of the entire Zhongzhou. Its important position needs no further explanation; the Inner Imperial City is located in the south of the Palace City. It is the office of the ministers. It has ancestral temples, government offices, and branches of various central ministries. It is the hub of the world and a place that scholars and ordinary people in the world yearn for.

　　The most famous street in the imperial city is Qingdeli Street, which is located between the palace city and the imperial city. It runs from east to west and is 150 meters wide. It is paved with two-foot-long and half-foot-wide Qingcheng. The roadside is inlaid with one-foot-high white marble, which looks extraordinary. There are eight north-south streets and twelve east-west streets in the imperial city. The remaining streets are 80 meters wide, connecting the entire imperial city.

　　There are many famous storks in the imperial city, the most famous of which is Baiyun Temple. Rui Er, recommended by everyone, generously became a tour guide.

　　"Look, this is the gate of the palace. Isn't it magnificent?"

　　"Wow, it's so tall and big, much bigger than our mountain gate." Qingxuan looked at the palace with envy.

　　"Hehe, you are surprised by what you have seen." Rui Er did not forget to make a face and even stuck out her tongue cutely. Zhi Yuan and the others could not help but feel a little overwhelmed. Who in the temple had ever seen such a feminine expression, especially a man? Really...

　　Walking up the avenue, we soon saw a pavilion. It turned out to be the Baiyun Temple. The gate was open for people to burn incense. There were also Taoists to guide people to visit at will. There were several rows of pine and cypress trees planted in front of the gate, arranged in rows. Most of the trees were very old. The trees were dozens of feet tall, and some parts of the trunks had cracked, but the crowns were still green and full of vitality. The ground under the trees was full of mud and covered with pine cones. Li Qingfeng and others looked decent. They burned incense and watched the ceremony in every hall. In addition, Rui Er was generous and left a lot of money for incense, so they were treated well.

　　Li Qingfeng secretly used his spiritual sense to check and found that there were not many cultivators in the Taoist temple, and most of them had very low levels of cultivation. The highest one was about the same as them. He didn't know whether the masters were hiding or for some other reason. Li Qingfeng didn't think about it anymore, but just casually looked at the layout and buildings in the courtyard.

　　After a day of getting along, Rui Er became familiar with everyone. Seeing that the ape Xiaobai following Qingfeng Li was so cute and human-like, she asked in surprise: "What is this? Is it your pet? Wow, it's so cute!"

　　Li Qingfeng smiled and said, "Rui'er, this is the spirit ape Xiaobai. Xiaobai, our new friend here is called Rui'er." Xiaobai glanced at Rui'er indifferently, and then concentrated on looking at his own scenery.

　　Rui Er couldn't help but feel a little unconvinced. Even a small monkey didn't take her seriously. She flew towards the spirit ape. In a flash of white light, the spirit ape had already hidden behind Li Qingfeng, seemingly unwilling to pay attention to him.

　　Rui Er couldn't help but said excitedly: "Okay, let's see where you can hide. I don't believe I can't find you."

　　Seeing that there were many people on the road, Li Qingfeng was afraid that Rui'er would use magic to shock the world, so he said, "Xiaobai, don't be so stingy. Come here." He took the spirit ape out from behind him.

　　Rui'er took Xiaobai from Li Qingfeng's arms and said affectionately: "Xiaobai, you are so cute, let's play together in the future." Xiaobai struggled for a few times and seemed very reluctant. He was interested in people who practiced Buddhism and liked the aura emanating from their bodies very much. Li Qingfeng practiced the Lingtian Heart Method and his true energy was very pure, so he liked to follow Li Qingfeng the most. He neither cared about nor was interested in ordinary practitioners. If it weren't for Li Qingfeng's order, he would have ignored Rui'er.

　　Rui'er didn't care whether Xiaobai was happy or not. She happily held Xiaobai's hand and refused to let go. Xiaobai struggled for a while but seemed to have accepted his fate and let Rui'er hold him.

　　After all, there were experts hidden in the imperial city, and the Yin Yue Sect did not dare to conduct a large-scale search. They could only secretly investigate the whereabouts of Li Qingfeng and his companions. However, they did not expect that they were acting as if nothing had happened and were still watching the scenery in the imperial city.

　　The Yin Yue Sect only guarded a few important roads and searched in remote inns and outside the city, but had no intention of letting Li Qingfeng and his men escape pursuit.

　　In fact, Li Qingfeng and his companions had not left the mountain for a long time, and most of them did not know how dangerous the world was. Although Rui'er knew that the man in black would definitely not give up, seeing that Li Qingfeng and his companions were so powerful, she was not afraid of their revenge, and did not take the matter to heart.

　　Li Qingfeng and his companions wandered around the imperial city for two days, took a general look at the scenery, and then prepared to set out south to visit Fashang Temple and Tianyun Temple, and tell them that the "Dark Demon Lord" had come out of the magic trap, so that they could be prepared in advance.

　　"Brother Rui'er, we have something to do. Where are you going?" After spending a few days with this lively little brother, Li Qingfeng couldn't help but like him a little.

　　'Although I am getting closer and closer to home, my family won't be able to find me so quickly, so I'd better go with them, it's so interesting, and Brother Qingfeng is also very handsome! ' Rui'er blushed when he thought of this, and he immediately said, "I'll go with you, don't leave me alone."

　　Li Qingfeng looked at Zhiyuan. After all, he was the eldest senior brother here, so he still wanted to ask his opinion. After all, the journey this time was longer.

　　Zhiyuan said, "Okay, but we have to hurry up, can you bear the hardship?"

　　"No problem." Rui'er answered readily and made a face at Zhiyuan. Zhiyuan smiled slightly and walked outside.

　　The five of them were not lonely on the road. Rui Er was familiar with the conditions of several continents near Zhongzhou, and she told Li Qingfeng and the others about them one by one. To the south of Zhongzhou were Yunzhou and Dapingzhou, to the east was Dongzhou, to the west was Heishuizhou, to the north were Bozhou and Huozhou. Among these continents, Zhongzhou was the largest, spanning 18,000 kilometers from east to west and 7,800 kilometers from north to south.

　　The following continents are ranked in order of area: Dapingzhou, Dongzhou, Yunzhou, Bozhou, Heishuizhou and Huozhou. It is said that there are some continents outside these continents, but few people have been there. Zhongzhou has eight counties, and each of them has 132 districts. Each district has a number of counties depending on the size. The territorial management of other continents is similar, but there are also slight differences. There is no government management for places like Heishuizhou and Huozhou, because the climate in these two places is bad, there are groups of wild beasts, and it is difficult for ordinary humans to survive. Only a few practitioners practice in them. It is said that there are miracles left over from ancient times, but no one has ever seen them.

　　Among these continents, Bozhou has the most cultivators. Because of its unique geographical location and small area, it is basically managed by several large cities where cultivators gather. Among them, the more famous ones are Huocheng and Xuntiancheng. These two cities mainly manage this continent.

　　"Rui'er, what about you? Is your home also in Zhongzhou?" Qingxuan asked curiously.

　　Rui Er smiled mysteriously and said, "I won't tell you."

　　Li Qingfeng and the others chatted and laughed along the way, and practiced on their own every night. In addition, their cultivation was quite good, and with the help of Li Qingfeng's elixir, everyone's skills improved significantly.

　　17. Volume 1: The Birth of Ten Thousand Demons - Chapter 16: Yin Yue Cult

　　At dusk that day, everyone arrived at a small village not far from Tianyun Temple, found a farmer's house to stay, and prepared to visit Tianyun Temple again tomorrow.

　　The sun gradually set, and the western sky was still burning with an orange sunset glow. The distant mountains were also dyed red by the sunset glow, but it was more spectacular than the scenery in the sky. As the sunset gradually sank to the west, the sunset glow in the sky gradually faded, the deep red color turned into crimson, and the crimson turned into light red. Finally, when all the red light disappeared, the sky, which suddenly seemed high and far away, showed a solemn look. The morning star appeared first, twinkling on the dark blue sky. It was so big and so bright, and it was the only one in the vast sky that radiated a striking brilliance, just like a bright lamp hanging high in the sky.

　　In this beautiful night, Qingfeng Li stood quietly in the farmyard. The breeze in the evening was fresh and cool. In Qingfeng Li's heart, there was an indescribable excitement and joy, as if he was about to blend into this vast night.

　　After he practiced Lingtian Heart Method, his sensitivity to the Way of Heaven became even sharper. At this moment, he was looking at the beautiful sunset, his whole body gradually blending into the night, and his aura gradually merged with the surrounding environment.

　　The way of heaven is difficult, but the road of heaven is not only full of dangers, but also contains many pleasures that mortals cannot imagine.

　　Li Qingfeng seemed to sense something, and his face showed an innocent smile like that of a baby, just like the Buddha preaching, and his disciples were fascinated, excited and happy.

　　The mysterious destiny in the dark made Li Qingfeng intoxicated, and his infatuation level also made rapid progress in this natural sound.

　　Suddenly, Li Qingfeng felt a warning sign in his heart. Three black shadows flew over from a distance and quietly approached this side.

　　Li Qingfeng extended his spiritual sense to take a look. These three people exuded a kind of evil aura, which was very similar to the Black Elder mentioned above. However, their skills were extremely weak, even inferior to Rui'er.

　　Li Qingfeng couldn't help but secretly startled: 'Why did this demon sect member appear here?

　　He could not help but quietly follow the three men in black to see what they were going to do. Qingfeng Li's cultivation was much higher than these three men, and the three men in black did not notice anything unusual and continued to quietly approach the farmhouse.

　　One of the taller men in black whispered, "There are fewer and fewer newborns now. I don't know why the boss wants us to find so many babies."

　　The other slightly fat man in black was a little nervous and said hurriedly: "Sun Er, you are not going to live anymore. Just do whatever the boss tells us to do and don't ask so many questions. If the boss's people hear us, we will be dead."

　　The black-clothed man named Sun Er was obviously a little unconvinced, but he still looked around and said, "Li Guang, you have become more and more timid recently. What are you afraid of? The boss is probably having fun with Xiao Cui right now..."

　　"Hehe, after finishing this job, I will also go to Yicuilou to take a look. That Xiaohong is really good." The man in black who hadn't spoken could not help but speak when he thought of his pride.

　　"Okay, Tianyun Temple and Fashang Temple are nearby, so we'd better be smart. Otherwise, no one will survive if something happens." Li Guang couldn't help but speak anxiously as he saw the two men talking more and more outrageous. His voice got a little louder.

　　Seeing that Li Guang was angry, Sun Er did not dare to provoke him again. He muttered in a low voice: "If you were not more powerful than me, I would have killed you long ago. You are so long-winded."

　　Li Guang suddenly felt something was wrong and hurriedly whispered: "No, hurry up, we've been discovered, there seems to be an expert inside."

　　"You want to leave? That's not that easy. Tell me, what are you doing?" Zhineng and the others appeared in front of the farmhouse. Li Qingfeng also appeared behind the three of them. Fearing to alert the people in the farmhouse, he formed a barrier around the three of them. In this way, as long as the barrier was not broken, no matter how loud the sound was, it would not be heard.

　　A huge aura locked the three people tightly. They suddenly felt a strong pressure and could not move at all. They were shocked.

　　"Who are you? How dare you ruin the good deeds of our Yin Yue Sect!" Sun Er asked viciously.

　　"Yin Yue Sect! Do you know Elder Hei?" Zhineng asked.

　　"You know the old man Black Elder. Although we are not his disciples, our hall master is very familiar with him. We are all family members. The flood has flushed the Dragon King Temple." When Li Guang heard that they knew Black Elder, hope arose in his heart, thinking that they were masters from other halls.

　　"Who are your friends? That black elder was beaten to death by us." Rui'er couldn't help but come up to join in the fun.

　　"Ah, you are the five people that the Ghost Hall mentioned." The three men in black were shocked. A few days ago, each hall issued an order to track down the whereabouts of five young people, but they didn't expect to meet them here.

　　"I didn't expect that your Yin Yue Sect is so powerful. In addition to the Ghost Hall, how many other halls do you have? What do you guys do?" While speaking, Li Qingfeng secretly used the power of the Six-Syllable Mantra.

　　The three men in black heard what was going on, and felt dizzy. Li Guang could not help but answer, "The Yin Yue Sect is divided into three halls: the Ghost Hall, the Blood Demon Hall, and the Soul Devouring Hall. We are from the Soul Devouring Hall, and our main responsibility is to collect babies and then hand them over to the hall to take their souls."

　　"Where is the Yin Yue Sect?" Li Qingfeng's anger burned in his heart, and he was determined to eradicate this brutal evil sect, so his tone calmed down.

　　"The three of us are low-level believers of the Soul Devouring Hall. We have never been to the headquarters. I heard that it is near the imperial city." Li Guang was not in his right mind and continued to answer involuntarily.

　　"Where is the Soul Devouring Hall?"

　　"In the Yaoyue Mountain in the east of the village...ah, what did I say, who are you!" After all, Li Guang's martial arts skills were not low, and he gradually came to his senses after a while.

　　Li Qingfeng did not say anything, but used the third level of his Spiritual Heaven Heart Method to disperse the three people's power, secretly chanted the Six-Character Great Bright Mantra, and shouted, "Duh!" The three people felt their minds being impacted by a huge force, and fainted. The Six-Character Great Bright Mantra had already broken the three people's minds, and from then on, the three people were like walking on a ruler, their minds were completely destroyed. To deal with such a crazy disciple who even used babies to practice, Li Qingfeng would not hold back at all.

　　"Brother, how about we go explore this Soul Devouring Hall?" Li Qingfeng turned around and asked Zhi Yuan and the others.

　　Everyone was ready to fight after hearing this. Zhiyuan was the best cultivator and didn't get angry easily. He also shouted, "What a bunch of bastards. They actually used children to cultivate Yin spirits. It's so cruel."

　　Zhineng had been waiting for this question. He was the most impatient of the four and asked immediately, "When are we leaving? Are we leaving now?"

　　Li Qingfeng waved his hand and said, "Wait a minute, we need to make some preparations before we go. It was so difficult to deal with the elders in that hall last time, so we must be more careful this time. Rui'er will stay with the spirit ape and protect this family. If the four of us are defeated, we can use the Four Phases Demon Subduing Formation to win. We will meet up at this farmer's house after we are separated. The most important thing is to rescue the captured baby. We must not fight hard."

　　Everyone had witnessed the power of the evil spirits summoned by the man in black, and knew that it would be difficult to win with one person's strength alone. They all had no objection to Li Qingfeng's proposal.

　　Qingxuan was extremely excited. Although he had participated in the last battle, he was only an assist after all. This time he was going to experience a big battle, and he could finally take action and test his skills.

　　He said excitedly: "Brother, just look at me this time. I will let these demons see how powerful I am. My jade Buddhist beads will show their power.

　　Several people knew that if they went to the Human Branch Hall to cause trouble, unlike outside, there would definitely be a lot of followers from the Demon Sect inside, so everyone began to organize their own magic weapons and elixirs to be used in preparation for the battle.

　　Li Qingfeng also took this opportunity to carefully sort out the things in the magic bag. Now he was mainly using the Burning Lamp Sword. The Demon Suppressing Tower required too much mana. Although he had cultivated into a Nascent Soul, the Demon Suppressing Tower could only be used as a last resort.

　　Zhineng and others were also making full preparations. They saw that his magic weapon was a flying sword, six inches long, with a light silver sword body. In the center of the sword body was a small hole with three rings. It felt cold in the hand, and the cold sword energy pierced the skin directly.

　　Qingxuan is a black flying sword, five inches long, in the shape of a rare slender teardrop. White light seems to be flashing inside the dark sword body. It is a very special flying sword.

　　Zhiyuan has the deepest magical power, and his magic weapon is also unusual, a five-colored Zen seat, an ancient magic weapon as famous as the "Ran Deng Sword" and very powerful.

　　18. Volume 1: The Birth of Ten Thousand Demons - Chapter 17: Soul Devouring Hall

　　Li Qingfeng suddenly had an idea and took out something from his magic bag.

　　This is a dark-colored armor with many dark patterns engraved on the surface. The patterns and the armor blend naturally, forming a protective formation.

　　Li Qingfeng suddenly remembered that in the "Pure Land Chronicles", there was a kind of armor that was made using the heart refining method, called "heart armor", which could protect the Nascent Soul from harm.

　　This was exactly a piece of heart armor. He had not yet achieved Nascent Soul stage and could not use it before. But now that a great war was imminent, it could be put to use. He quickly used his magic power to refine it and took the armor into his body.

　　As soon as I put on the armor, the dark black armor shone brightly, and the patterns on the surface gradually brightened and slowly disappeared into my body. I just felt cool and comfortable all over.

　　Li Qingfeng sank his mind into his body, and saw that his Nascent Soul was already half a foot tall, chubby, and sitting in his Qi Sea with his eyes closed. He was wearing the same dark armor he had just worn, and looked very cute.

　　With the help of profound Buddhist knowledge and magic weapons, Zhiyuan was able to fly easily. The feeling of being in the air made him scream with excitement.

　　Rui Er had already learned how to fly with a sword, and she pursed her lips and muttered in a low voice: "What's the big deal about being able to fly, really!"

　　Zhineng also stood shakily on the flying sword and flew up, flying excitedly in the sky.

　　Li Qingfeng took a look and knew that they had basically learned how to fly with swords. This would increase their hope of rescuing people later. He stopped thinking about it and took out the spell of "Demon Suppression Tower" from the Na Lan belt and studied it seriously. Li Qingfeng knew that the last time the evil ghost escaped was mainly because he did not know how to use the Demon Suppression Tower.

　　Li Qingfeng quickly figured it out. It turned out that the magic formula of the Demon Suppression Tower had two main parts. One part was to refine the demon with Buddha's light, and the other part was to collect the demon with the pagoda. Last time, he only used the first half. If he used the second half, he could collect the evil ghost into the Demon Suppression Tower and refine it. Li Qingfeng tried to practice for a while, and after seeing that everyone had basically mastered the magic weapon in their hands, he said, "Take a rest, we will set off at three o'clock and go straight to the Soul Devouring Hall!"

　　Upon hearing this, everyone sat down to relax and recuperate.

　　In the blink of an eye, it was already three o'clock in the morning and everyone stood up and prepared to set off.

　　Li Qingfeng explained the division of labor to everyone. Zhineng, Zhiyuan and Qingxuan would attack the Soul Devouring Hall together and cause trouble everywhere, while he would go to rescue people.

　　After the last battle, Qingfeng Li had become the group's leader, and no one thought there was anything wrong with it.

　　Li Qingfeng finally said, "Remember, there are many masters in the Yinyue Sect. We may not get the upper hand this time. Just rescue the people and don't fight. After the mission is accomplished, you can bring the baby back here to meet up. I will hold off the people from the Demon Sect and come after you. The three of you must not separate. If you separate, you will be weak. You need to advance and retreat together, avoid the strong and attack the weak. With the combination of the formation, you can resist for a while even if you meet a powerful person. Okay, let's go."

　　Everyone had been waiting anxiously. Upon hearing this, they summoned their magic weapons and rode on the clouds to fly towards the east of the village. In the blink of an eye, they arrived outside the Soul-Devouring Hall.

　　The Soul-Devouring Hall is located at the northwest end of Yaoyue Mountain, with winding paths leading to secluded places, towering ancient trees, and old vines entwined around rocks. There are dozens of houses connected together in the dense forest, with a large hall in the middle, arranged in a square, and a row of short stone houses at the end.

　　Li Qingfeng used his spiritual sense to observe carefully for a while and found out that the last row of stone houses was where the stolen babies were kept. There seemed to be no super masters in the entire Soul Devouring Hall, and there were only three people with skills similar to his.

　　It seems that the hall master is not here, and the ones left behind are elder-level figures.

　　Li Qingfeng couldn't help but feel happy. There was no tiger in the mountain, and it was a good opportunity to wipe out the Soul Devouring Hall.

　　Li Qingfeng and his men covered their faces with black cloths. Zhiyuan and the other three quietly went in from the side. Li Qingfeng also rushed forward at lightning speed.

　　As early as in mid-air, Li Qingfeng had already condensed all his Lingtian Heart Skills. In the blink of an eye, a huge ball of light shot towards the hall. With a loud bang, a big hole was knocked out on the roof of the hall, and all the lanterns outside the hall were extinguished at once.

　　This was also the strategy they had discussed in advance, to create chaos first and then rescue people during the chaos.

　　Li Qingfeng took advantage of the chaos to sneak in unhindered, and quickly came to the last row of stone chambers. He gently opened the stone door and floated in. He saw several hanging baskets in the stone chamber and two members of the Demon Sect dozing off. He stretched out his hand and shot out two streams of true energy to cover the two men, draining the true energy from their bodies. The two men only felt a chill on their bodies and knew nothing.

　　Li Qingfeng walked closer and saw that there was a baby in each basket. It seemed that these babies had not had their spiritual essences sucked away after being snatched away, but were just bewitched and fell into a coma.

　　Looking at so many babies, Li Qingfeng used his magic power to send the babies into the Nalan Belt, and used his spiritual sense to probe into the belt. He saw that these babies were sleeping peacefully after entering the Nalan Belt, and he felt relieved that there was nothing wrong.

　　He searched carefully again, and when he found no babies he had missed, he charged towards the main hall.

　　There was a passage ahead. Li Qingfeng took only a few steps before he heard someone shouting, "Which one?" As the strong wind blew, two shining iron forks with black air stabbed towards Li Qingfeng.

　　Li Qingfeng swung out with both hands, and the Burning Lamp Sword flashed like a golden light. The two men were instantly beheaded and fell to the ground dead.

　　Li Qingfeng knew that there were many members of the evil cult here, and the Yinyue Cult was evil and had done many evil things. These members probably had many lives on their hands, so he would show no mercy.

　　There were giant tallow candles lit on the walls of the passage. After walking a few feet, they turned a corner. There were always two men guarding each corner. Li Qingfeng would kill the man holding the iron fork with just a wave of his hand. His moves were fast, accurate, and clean.

　　Li Qingfeng was walking towards the main hall when he heard a clamor of people rushing towards the main hall. Li Qingfeng secretly thought that it was not good, maybe Zhineng and the others were surrounded, and flew towards the main hall on his sword.

　　There were countless torches on the walls of the hall, shining as brightly as day. The surrounding area was filled with members of the Demon Cult holding iron forks. Zhineng and the other two were surrounded in the middle, and their magic weapons above their heads were shining with changing light, which was very eye-catching.

　　The three men in black stared at Zhineng with vicious and ferocious eyes and said, "Who are you? How dare you break into the Soul Refining Hall!"

　　A man in black at the side shouted, "Great Elder, why bother talking to them? Just kill them and feed them to the Blood Demon."

　　Zhiyuan and the others didn't know whether Li Qingfeng had rescued the people, and they ignored the people from the Demon Cult and just kept them here.

　　The elder saw that the three did not answer, and he said angrily: "Kill them." The strange hammer in his hand turned into a black gas and attacked Zhineng. Zhineng and the other two hurriedly offered up magic weapons to meet them. The other two black-clothed men spit out magic weapons from their mouths, one was a blood-red flying sword, and the other was a magic weapon like a flying disc, spinning non-stop.

　　The man in black with the blood-red flying sword saw that the two sides were deadlocked, so he flew the sword towards Zhineng. Zhineng was concentrating on dealing with the Great Elder of the Soul Devouring Hall, and was unable to parry. He shouted loudly, and his whole body was covered with golden light, and he resisted the attack with all his strength. With a "pop", the flying sword's sword energy had pierced Zhineng, and blood splattered everywhere.

　　Zhiyuan was shocked. He didn't expect that this was just a branch hall, but the strength was so strong. After just one encounter, Zhiyuan, one of the three, was injured. He was very anxious: "Why hasn't Junior Brother Qingfeng come yet!"

　　At this time, the three of them were surrounded and it was impossible for them to escape.

　　19. Volume 1: The Rise of Ten Thousand Demons - Chapter 18: Fierce Battle

　　"You three, you dared to cause trouble in my Yin Yue Sect. You are so brave. Why don't you surrender quickly? Otherwise, I will kill you and it will be too late to regret it."

　　The Soul Devouring Hall's Great Elder, seeing that he had secured victory again, laughed triumphantly, but the magic weapon in his hand became tighter and tighter, with no intention of stopping at all.

　　The members of the Demon Cult were feeling proud of themselves when they heard a thunderclap in the air: "Demon Cult monster, stop being so arrogant."

　　A ball of golden light rushed towards the flying sword and the strange hammer. There were two huge collision sounds, and the tremendous power slowed down the offensive of the Demon Cult.

　　The golden light did not stop, but turned around and took the lives of several disciples of the Demon Sect.

　　"Wow!"

　　Caught off guard, one of the Demon Cult disciples was killed, leaving a huge wound in his body.

　　Li Qingfeng took advantage of the situation and jumped to Zhineng's side. He took out a magic pill and fed it into Zhineng's mouth. He stared at the three men in black and said, "You guys protect him. I'm here to see the masters of the Yinyue Sect."

　　"Hahaha, okay. I'm Mo Litong. I haven't seen such a rampant person in a long time." The great elder laughed angrily. Li Qingfeng actually killed several people in front of him, which made him very angry.

　　"None of you can escape today! Kill them!"

　　Seeing that he was young, the Soul Devouring Hall members didn't take him seriously. Only the three black-robed elders knew that this man was not easy to deal with, so they were secretly careful.

　　Li Qingfeng didn't say much, he shouted: "Rise!" A soft "buzzing" sound was heard, and the Demon-Suppressing Tower rotated and flew into the sky. A soft beam of light pressed towards the members of the Demon Cult. Several members of the Demon Cult who were closer were sucked into the tower before they could react. Li Qingfeng knew that the situation was serious today, so he used his strongest trick right from the start. These two tricks killed at least ten disciples of the Demon Cult.

　　Li Qingfeng handed the baby to Zhineng, and then poured his true energy into the Demon Suppressing Tower as if it were free, holding back the three elders of the Demon Cult.

　　Once the three elders were dragged down, they faced ordinary disciples of the Demon Sect. Zhineng and others cut them down like cutting melons and vegetables, and in a short while they wiped out the remaining demons.

　　The three black-robed elders roared in rage, but the light shield from the Demon-Suppressing Tower had a very strong suction force, so they could only use their internal energy to resist and had no time to care about other believers.

　　"How dare you! Break it for me!"

　　The demon Li Tong let out a loud roar and used all his strength to continuously attack the light shield formed by the Demon Suppressing Tower. The three of them joined forces to break the light shield. The Demon Suppressing Tower shook a few times and turned into a phantom and plunged into Li Qingfeng's body.

　　This was mainly because Li Qingfeng's cultivation was still too low, and the mana in the Demon Suppression Tower had been used up and could no longer trap the three elders of the Demon Cult.

　　Li Qingfeng knew that the Demon-Suppressing Pagoda was best used when the enemy was trapped. Now that the three Soul-Devouring Hall elders had discovered something was wrong, the pagoda was no longer effective, so they put it away.

　　The Great Elder of the Soul Devouring Hall said angrily, "Be careful of that pagoda, don't hold back."

　　He stomped his feet suddenly and waved his hands quickly. As his hands danced, a faint black gas was emitted. Suddenly, a huge black hammer appeared around him and rushed towards Li Qingfeng as his hands danced.

　　The huge hammer spun rapidly, causing a gust of wind that blew up gravel, shooting it everywhere like sharp arrows. Li Qingfeng looked around and saw a thick black demonic energy rushing towards him from all directions. He suddenly felt an overwhelming pressure. He shouted, "Zhiyuan, take them away!"

　　Zhiyuan knew that staying would make Li Qingfeng hesitant, so he stopped hesitating and flew out with Qingxuan on the Zhineng.

　　The two Soul Devouring Hall elders knew that if they couldn't get rid of the boy in front of them, they would probably not be alive when the hall master came back, so they ignored their intelligence and attacked Li Qingfeng with all their strength.

　　The dry and hot breath seemed to suck all the air out of the entire hall, and a strong fishy smell filled the air. Amidst the demonic energy, the three magic weapons of the magic sect made a huge whistling sound, emitting a harsh sound like the friction between iron objects.

　　A spot of golden light lit up in the sky full of demonic energy, and mixed in with the loud rumbling sound, it seemed so clear.

　　Gradually, the golden light became brighter and brighter, and the sound of the Six-Syllable Mantra was audible. It was barely audible at first, but although the whistling sound was loud, it could not cover the faint sound of the Mantra. Only a ray of red light appeared, and there was a slight "chi" sound, just like a lit match thrown into gasoline.

　　With a loud bang, the huge energy impact caused half of the several-meter-high roof of the hall to be blown off. Li Qingfeng retreated dozens of meters in the black fog and finally sat on the ground.

　　Li Qingfeng knew that if it weren't for the heart armor protecting him, he would have vomited blood and died. Even so, Li Qingfeng felt as if his meridians were broken, his blood and energy were churning, and his Nascent Soul was violently shaken.

　　Li Qingfeng took a top-grade elixir without hesitation, and his spiritual power instantly surged out like a tide.

　　After a moment, Li Qingfeng's injuries were mostly healed, and he looked towards the three Demon Sect elders.

　　Under this attack, except for the Great Elder of the Demon Sect, the other two elders fell to the side, their lives or deaths unknown.

　　The Soul Devouring Hall's Great Elder had blood on his lips as he looked at Li Qingfeng viciously. He was both frightened and ashamed. Not only had Li Qingfeng killed most of the Soul Devouring Hall's followers, but that attack just now had almost killed him.

　　This was because he was too careless. In addition, the Lingtian Heart Method was specifically designed to restrain demonic power, and the magic weapons used by Li Qingfeng were all ancient spiritual weapons with boundless magic power. As a result, he suffered a great loss without paying attention.

　　Mo Litong's face was ferocious, and he roared angrily: "For the first time in my life, I felt terrified. Don't even think about living. I will tear you apart!"

　　A stream of black gas spurted out of his mouth and gradually condensed into a black gas mass. This was his innate magic essence. It seemed that he was determined to kill Li Qingfeng. After spurting out his innate magic essence, his face turned gray, as if he had aged by ten years.

　　Suddenly, the black gas mass emitted a strange green light, faintly condensed into a human figure, and rolled towards Li Qingfeng.

　　The black evil spirit gradually took shape, and a ghostly spirit more than three feet tall appeared. He had a big head, unusually long ears, and a small body, like a malformed child with poor development.

　　The elder of the Soul-Devouring Hall stood beside the main hall. Most of the roof had been blown away, and the moonlight poured into the hall like water. Under the pale blue moonlight, one could see his black clothes fluttering and his face looking extremely pale, looking unspeakably weird.

　　The Great Elder had a sinister smile on his face, and his right hand was dancing with its fingers. A ghost followed him like a shadow, slowly circling around him.

　　Li Qingfeng was secretly shocked. Could it be that the ghost was changing its shape according to the gestures of his fingers and chasing him step by step?

　　The wind was bleak and the sky was dark. The torches around the hall flickered, illuminating the face of the Great Elder of the Demon Cult, making him look like a ghost.

　　The ghost howled and spun, circling in the air in an arc, slowly dancing with the finger of the great elder. The ghost was surrounded by black air, with red light flickering inside it, and it let out a low and strange roar.

　　The wind howled, and the chill seeped into Li Qingfeng's body. The surroundings were filled with a foul smell, which made him feel nauseous and nauseous.

　　Qingfeng Li felt that the stench was like waves, surging over him, and the true energy in his body was naturally slightly aroused. He secretly formed the Vajra Seal in his hand, silently chanted the Six-Syllable Mantra, and used all of his spiritual power. He felt a heat flow slowly circulating in his meridians. A cold true energy was mixed in the heat flow, and it quickly gathered in the Burning Lamp Sword in his hand. The Burning Lamp Sword emitted a dazzling light, gradually trembled, and made a strong sound of burning fire. A raging fire was seen burning on the Burning Lamp Sword.

　　The Soul Devouring Hall's Great Elder turned his finger, and the evil spirit around the ghost suddenly dispersed, swirling in the sky, and pounced towards Li Qingfeng with a loud howl.

　　Li Qingfeng shouted, "Come on!" A red light flashed, dispersing the evil energy that rushed over first.

　　Just as Li Qingfeng swung his sword to break the evil spirit, the ghost suddenly roared, rushed forward, and struck down with its two weak arms with the force of thunder.

　　There was a flash of fire, and Li Qingfeng's sword slashed at the ghost's head.

　　The great elder smiled sinisterly and waved his hands violently.

　　The ghost's claws were as hard as iron, sparks of fire burst out, and a powerful gust of air shook Li Qingfeng back.

　　Li Qingfeng took advantage of the momentum and swept back, standing firm ten feet away.

　　The ghost spirit floated like a leaf, and then lightly came to Li Qingfeng's side.

　　Li Qingfeng's heart was startled. It seemed that there was nothing special about the attack just now. He had activated at least 80% of the potential of the Burning Lamp Sword, but still couldn't knock down the ghost.

　　Li Qingfeng's sleeves fluttered, his Qi flowed continuously, and his clothes bulged outwards. Although Li Qingfeng's cultivation had improved, the ghost this time seemed to be more difficult to deal with than the evil ghost summoned by the man in black last time. He was alert and focused to see what evil tricks he had.

　　The elder waved his hands, and the ghost spit out a long tongue from his mouth, like a flying python, attacking Li Qingfeng one after another, each attack was powerful. The bluestone slabs on the ground disappeared and flew everywhere, and dust and smoke filled the air.

　　Li Qingfeng only defended and did not attack, as if he was forced by the ghost, constantly dodging without being able to fight back

　　20. Volume 1: The Birth of Ten Thousand Demons - Chapter 19: Soul Devouring Hall Master

　　Li Qingfeng was slowly gathering his strength, and the medicinal power of the elixir was constantly replenishing the true energy in his body.

　　Although it seemed that the ghost had been beating Li Qingfeng so hard that he couldn't even raise his head, in fact, Li Qingfeng had not suffered any real damage. He was just waiting for an opportunity.

　　"Break it for me!"

　　After fighting again, Li Qingfeng finally found an opportunity and struck with all his strength using the Burning Lamp Sword.

　　The ghost rolled and wailed in the air, suffering severe damage!

　　Mo Litong's face changed drastically, and he spit out several balls of black demonic energy from his mouth, which were charged into the ghost. His face was completely bloodless, as if all his flesh and blood had been spit out. He looked even older, as if he was going to fall down at the next moment.

　　The ghost was replenished and suddenly rushed down again.

　　The ghost's arm turned a pale green color, and a faint green halo shone all over its body. Its whole body trembled, and with a "hiss" sound, the ghost turned into demonic energy all over the sky, bursting into points of black light, and shot towards Li Qingfeng like a storm.

　　Li Qingfeng clapped his palms, and the air surged, shooting the silver beads all over the sky back. The Soul Devouring Hall's Great Elder tapped his fingers, and the black light condensed in an instant, unexpectedly regrouping into a ghost spirit, flowing in the air like water, up and down, left and right, swirling as he wished.

　　Li Qingfeng was stunned and couldn't help thinking: "This demon sect elder is really extraordinary. His ghost-controlling technique is so amazing!"

　　The Soul Devouring Hall's Great Elder said coldly, "You little bastard, today I will use your blood to sacrifice to my ghost child."

　　The ghost spirit was like water, pouring and swirling, gathering and dispersing, and penetrating every hole. In an instant, it covered Li Qingfeng's whole body.

　　The Soul Devouring Hall's Great Elder laughed wildly with a distorted face. The black light transformed by the ghost spirit became denser and denser, and more and more, floating around Li Qingfeng like black mist.

　　Suddenly, a golden beam of light descended from the sky, covering the black light around Li Qingfeng. The great elder suddenly felt something was wrong, and the magic light in the sky tried to rush out, but it was too late. The black light turned into Buddha's light as soon as it met the Demon Suppressing Tower. The black gas condensed into shape again, roaring and screaming, tumbling up and down, but it could not escape the powerful suction of the Demon Suppressing Tower and was gradually sucked into the tower.

　　The Soul Devouring Hall's Great Elder felt as if his heart was hit by a huge hammer. He spat out a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground.

　　Li Qingfeng knew that these three people were middle-level figures in the Demon Sect, and their hands were stained with blood. He showed no mercy and killed them with a single palm strike.

　　At this moment, something strange happened!

　　"How bold!" Suddenly, a voice that seemed to come from the dark sky, vague and invisible, but extremely clear, came from all directions.

　　Li Qingfeng was slightly startled, and saw a tall and majestic figure that seemed to be still far away, coming from the air, with blood-red spots of light mixed in the black mist under his feet.

　　When he first saw the man, he was still ten miles away. In the blink of an eye, he was less than three miles away from Qingfeng Li.

　　Li Qingfeng was shocked, his eyes flashed with light, like two lightning bolts streaking across the night sky and locking onto the man. He found that the man was very young, with a very handsome face, but with a scar running from his left eyebrow to his right ear, making him look extremely hideous.

　　Li Qingfeng couldn't help but secretly gasp in amazement, thinking: "Too amazing, this ten-mile distance is reached in the blink of an eye, could it be the Soul Devouring Hall's leader! My goodness, I can't handle such a powerful person." He thought so in his heart, but his face was calm and calm, and he said loudly: "Who is coming?

　　The man laughed strangely upon hearing this. His voice was sometimes clear and sometimes hoarse, which made people feel very uncomfortable. He shook his shoulders slightly and whistled loudly. He was like a big bird spreading its wings and landing gently at the palace door twenty steps away from him. He glanced at the palace and saw the corpses of the three elders lying in the palace. He looked at Li Qingfeng viciously and said, "Did you kill them?"

　　Qingfeng Li was filled with awe, silently mobilizing his true energy, alert with all his might, and asked in a hoarse voice, "Who on earth are you?

　　The Soul Devouring Hall Master, Poison Dragon, glared at Li Qingfeng with a terrifying gaze and said, "I am the master of this place - Poison Dragon!"

　　No matter how resolute Li Qingfeng was, when he knew that the man in front of him was the head of the Soul Devouring Hall of the Yinyue Sect, he felt a sense of fear rising from the bottom of his heart. His face turned extremely ugly, and he secretly cried out that he was extremely unlucky.

　　He hurriedly pressed the Vajra Seal to calmly face the dragon. He swallowed hard, mustered up his courage, forced himself to look at the dragon's face, and said calmly: "Yes, I killed it. As the saying goes, those who do evil will eventually die!"

　　Dulong looked at Yang Tianxing in disbelief, a strange look flashed across his face, and he said with a sinister smile: "You? Impossible, how could you kill them all by yourself, and what about the remaining people?

　　Li Qingfeng was slightly stunned, then he made up his mind and said, "I will kill him alone." While speaking, he had already mobilized all the true energy in his body, ready to face the violent attack at any time. He thought that the disaster was inevitable, he couldn't just sit there and wait to die, he had to fight back anyway.

　　An overwhelming pressure came over, and the surrounding air seemed to be sucked dry in an instant. The wind lanterns beside the hall could not withstand the strong pressure and exploded one by one. The fire flashed and then dimmed. The moonlight seemed unable to withstand the chilling feeling and quietly hid behind a large black cloud. The whole hall suddenly darkened.

　　The poisonous dragon stood at the entrance of the hall, looking like a demon god, with a powerful aura constantly pressing towards Li Qingfeng.

　　Li Qingfeng took a deep breath, knowing that he might not be able to escape today, but he had to escape no matter what! Because he was still carrying the oath to eliminate the Dark Lord! !

　　Li Qingfeng took out another elixir and put it into his mouth, then drew out the extremely cold jade crystal essence in his body, regardless of whether his meridians could withstand it.

　　This was a fight to the death, real fight to the death. The poisonous dragon's aura was too strong. Li Qingfeng felt like a small boat in the waves that could be destroyed at any time.

　　The cold jade crystal energy was secretly drawn out by Li Qingfeng.

　　A stream of extremely cold true energy came out from the depths of the Qi Sea and quickly occupied all the meridians in the body. Li Qingfeng only felt that the true energy was spinning faster and faster, and the true energy in his body was forced into the body of the Nascent Soul by this cold true energy and could not get out at all.

　　"Ah!" Li Qingfeng could not help but shout out, he felt that the true energy was so powerful that he could no longer control it!

　　"Hahaha, now you're scared, right? I won't let you die so easily. I'll make you wish you were dead, but you can't live. I'll torture you for ten days and ten nights before I kill you!"

　　The Soul Devouring Hall Master, Poison Dragon, laughed triumphantly, thinking that Li Qingfeng could no longer bear the pressure of his demonic energy.

　　"Yi, something's not right, what's going on? Why is the true energy in his body suddenly so powerful!" The Poison Dragon suddenly felt something was wrong. His Yin Ming Demon Art had been practiced to the fifth level. Under the powerful pressure of the Yin Ming Demon Energy, the counterattack force was so great that he almost couldn't control the recoil force!

　　"Demonic energy penetrates the body!" The Poison Dragon was stunned. He had wanted to use the pressure of the demonic energy to make Li Qingfeng exhausted without a fight, but he didn't expect that this man had been suppressed by his own demonic energy and had no power to fight back. At this moment, he actually pushed the demonic energy back to him. He couldn't help but be shocked. He used all his strength to use the Yinming Magic Art to suppress the demonic energy surrounding Li Qingfeng.

　　Li Qingfeng was in a very dangerous situation at this time. The cold energy of the jade crystal in his body was very strong. If it was absorbed normally, it would take at least a year to be fully utilized. Now that it was fully stimulated, the powerful cold energy had completely controlled the eight extraordinary meridians in his body, and he was on the verge of going astray.

　　At this time, the evil energy controlled by the poisonous dragon also broke out completely, breaking Li Qingfeng's protective true energy and invading his body!

　　Li Qingfeng only felt an extremely strange and powerful demonic energy invading along the meridians of his whole body, gradually extending to his heart meridians. His mind gradually became lost, retaining only a little clarity of consciousness.

　　The poisonous dragon was a little bit puzzled. He just felt that there was a strong internal energy in Li Qingfeng's body. How could it break through his protective internal energy so easily and invade his body?

　　With all these forces coming from both inside and outside, Qingfeng Li felt like he was about to be blown to pieces by the violent force, but he had no control over it at all.

　　"Am I going to die here?" Li Qingfeng thought unwillingly.

　　21. Volume 1: The Birth of Ten Thousand Demons - Chapter 20: Beautiful Cars and Beauties

　　At this moment, another strange change occurred. The cold and yin true energy in Li Qingfeng's body had already completely occupied Li Qingfeng's eight extraordinary meridians. Now the demonic energy came to invade again, and the cold and yin true energy naturally attacked the demonic energy that threatened its position.

　　Under the impact of the two powerful true qi, Li Qingfeng's body strangely rose up, and at this time the warm true qi in his body also slowly turned.

　　"Ah!" Li Qingfeng screamed wildly, and the true energy in his body suddenly burst out. The demonic energy was instantly eliminated. The cold true energy was as if it were real. Under Li Qingfeng's control, it turned into a huge green sword-shaped gas column and stabbed straight at the poisonous dragon.

　　Before the poisonous dragon could react, the sword of energy had already chopped it down!

　　"Wow!" The poisonous dragon screamed and was knocked away by this strange green sword-shaped air column. It flew backwards and smashed the palace door behind it into pieces, leaving a deep mark more than ten feet long and one meter deep on the ground.

　　Dust was flying, bricks and tiles were cracking, and a large human-shaped hole was knocked out on the three-foot-thick palace door by the poisonous dragon. The poisonous dragon was lying on the bluestone slab outside the palace door, with its limbs and legs broken, and it was obvious that it was dead. The bluestone slab was smashed into pieces, forming a deep pit with a diameter of about ten feet.

　　Li Qingfeng staggered towards the deep pit more than 20 feet away. Just as he was about to raise his legs, he felt the internal energy in his body suddenly become chaotic and he fainted.

　　At this time, two black shadows flew in on swords outside the hall. They saw that the hall looked like it had been hit by a tornado. There was no intact place, and there were ruins everywhere. It was a mess. They were stunned for a moment and walked into the hall.

　　The hall was dark, and there seemed to be a figure lying in the middle.

　　The pale blue moonlight quietly peeked out from behind the dark clouds, bringing a little light to the dark hall.

　　"Junior Brother Qingfeng is here. Hmm, he seems to be seriously injured." Qingxuan lifted the black cloth on Li Qingfeng's face and saw clearly in the moonlight that it was Li Qingfeng.

　　"Alright, stop talking and take Li Qingfeng back to the farm first." Zhiyuan saw that this place was gloomy and gloomy and was afraid that any more trouble would arise.

　　Two black shadows carried Li Qingfeng and flew towards the small village. No one noticed that the poisonous dragon, the leader of the Soul Devouring Hall, seemed to move in the big pit!

　　It was dark and gloomy, and I didn't know how long it took before Qingfeng Li woke up again. His body was as cold as ice, but his limbs felt like they were on fire and were shivering. His throat was still burning.

　　He forced himself to open his eyes and looked around. It was pitch black, but he could smell a faint feminine scent in his nostrils.

　　His whole body was shaking, making his stomach feel even more uncomfortable. He twisted his neck and found himself in a four-horse carriage, with a familiar woman sitting next to him, but he couldn't remember who she was.

　　I heard the woman's trembling voice: "Little rascal, you finally woke up? You made me shed so many tears."

　　Li Qingfeng suddenly felt a bright light in front of his eyes, the sun was blinding, and he quickly closed his eyes. After a while, he slowly opened his eyes, and in front of him was an extremely beautiful woman.

　　After a long while, Qingfeng Li finally came to his senses. He thought of the babies and wanted to ask himself how long he had been unconscious, but his throat was hoarse and he couldn't make a sound for a long time. He could only point at himself and gesture twice.

　　The woman burst into laughter and wiped the tears from her face. She seemed to know what he was going to say and said, "You have been unconscious for a day and a night. Zhineng and the others have already sent the babies to Tianyun Temple."

　　The woman said softly, "Do you want some water?" She took a sheepskin pot and carefully placed it next to his lips, moistened his lips first, and then slowly poured the water in.

　　It was cool and sweet, it was actually nectar. After the honey entered his stomach, the heat in his body was slightly relieved, and his spirits were lifted. He then realized that the carriage was extremely spacious, with thick bedding inside. The woman was half-sitting on his right side, staring at him intently.

　　The sunlight was dazzling and the trees were falling down. I felt dizzy and nauseous after just looking at it for a moment. The cold and damp air in my stomach went straight to the top of my head and I fainted immediately.

　　After an unknown amount of time, he seemed to hear the sound of clothes rubbing against each other. Li Qingfeng suddenly opened his eyes. Under the cover of night, the carriage was a little dark. A beautiful long-haired woman had her back to him, her head tilted to the side, her long eyelashes drooping, her waist was slender, and her white neck was set off by her long black hair, which hung down to her white hips.

　　The woman was changing out of her women's clothes and into men's clothes.

　　Li Qingfeng swallowed his saliva and rubbed his eyes to make sure this was not a dream. His heart was beating wildly. He had never seen a naked woman in his life. For a moment, he almost stopped breathing. He couldn't close his eyes no matter what, and he didn't dare to make a sound.

　　The woman in the car didn't seem to notice that Li Qingfeng had woken up and was still changing the man's clothes.

　　He was gentle and fair-skinned, and it turned out to be the weak scholar Rui'er!

　　Li Qingfeng was dumbfounded, and broke out in a cold sweat, not knowing whether to continue pretending to sleep or to warn him. In an instant, thousands of thoughts flashed through his mind. While he was thinking, Rui'er turned her head unintentionally, and their eyes met. They both felt something was wrong, and their faces turned red and their hearts beat fast, and they were at a loss.

　　Li Qingfeng made a decision in an instant. Now that things had come to this, he could only remain calm and respond.

　　At the moment, I simply pretended that I knew nothing and said with a smile: "Rui Er, go on, I didn't see anything."

　　Rui'er's pretty face flushed red, with a hint of anger on her face, seeming to be both angry and happy. She felt mixed emotions in her heart. When she heard Li Qingfeng teasing her, she seemed to feel relieved. She didn't know what the feeling was, and she didn't know whether she was relieved or disappointed. She just sighed softly.

　　"We'll be at Tianyun Temple soon. How's your injury?" Rui'er suppressed her pounding heart and answered calmly.

　　"I'm much better now, thank you for taking care of me." Li Qingfeng replied.

　　Li Qingfeng remembered that his master had said before he went down the mountain that when visiting Tianyun Temple, one should not be rude, but also should not undermine the momentum of the Pure Land Sect. He didn't know why his master said that. Could it be that Tianyun Temple had some problems? After thinking for a while, he couldn't come up with any clues, so he calmed down and carefully checked his injuries.

　　"Rui'er, I'll practice my internal energy to recover. Call me when we get to Tianyun Temple." Li Qingfeng gave Rui'er some instructions and began to practice his internal energy to heal his injuries.

　　Rui'er glanced at Li Qingfeng secretly, hummed softly, and lowered her head to think.

　　Li Qingfeng took out a pill of the best elixir and put it into his mouth, then slowly sank his mind into his Nascent Soul. After taking a look, he was shocked. His injuries were indeed very serious. Many of his meridians that had been opened were also damaged. His Nascent Soul had also shrunk a lot under the violent impact of the true energy and looked drowsy, but under the protection of the heart armor, it did not suffer any harm.

　　The cold and yin true energy was now much tamer, swirling slowly around the qi sea.

　　22. Volume 1: The Birth of Ten Thousand Demons - Chapter 21: Beauty Throws Herself into His Arms

　　As soon as the elixir entered his stomach, he felt a warm current rising from his dantian. Under the influence of this warm current, his Nascent Soul became much more energetic. It slowly opened its eyes and began to help Li Qingfeng circulate his true Qi.

　　Li Qingfeng knew that if the jade crystal coldness in his body could not be resolved, it would be like having a time bomb in his body at all times. The most urgent task now was to use this fully stimulated Yin and cold true energy for his own benefit.

　　He took a deep breath and slowly drew some cold and yin qi into his qi sea. His Nascent Soul immediately sent out a stream of innate qi. The two streams of qi slowly circulated and gradually absorbed the introduced cold and yin qi.

　　Li Qingfeng couldn't help but feel happy, and he did as the law suggests, gradually absorbing the Yin-cold true Qi that was lingering near his Qi Sea. In less than two hours, half of the Yin-cold true Qi in his body was dissolved. As this increased and decreased, Li Qingfeng was able to dissolve the Yin-cold true Qi faster and faster.

　　Unexpectedly, Li Qingfeng turned a disaster into a blessing. This cold and yin qi was extremely powerful. If it was rashly activated under normal circumstances, Li Qingfeng would probably explode and die under the impact of the powerful qi because he could not resolve it. When he activated this powerful jade crystal cold and yin qi, he was invaded by the poisonous dragon's magic qi. The two qi resisted each other and consumed a lot of energy. However, even so, Li Qingfeng suffered extremely serious injuries. Fortunately, his Nascent Soul was protected by the heart armor and was not injured. Otherwise, if his Nascent Soul was seriously injured, he would probably never be able to make any further progress in his life.

　　Under these coincidences, Li Qingfeng was able to completely absorb the cold energy of the Jade Crystal Divine Spring, and his skills increased greatly.

　　Rui'er had thought that Li Qingfeng would not wake up so soon, so she quietly changed into men's clothes in the car under the cover of darkness when they were almost at Tianyun Temple. Unexpectedly, Li Qingfeng woke up at that very moment. She was already shocked and embarrassed, but when she saw that Li Qingfeng seemed to have woken up after she changed his clothes, she gradually calmed down.

　　The moonlight was just right at that moment, and objects could be vaguely seen in the carriage. I mustered up the courage to look at Li Qingfeng, and saw that he was pale and listless at first, but then his complexion gradually recovered, and his body emitted a faint yellow light, which made his handsome face look even more heroic. I couldn't help but stare at him in a daze!

　　Li Qingfeng moved his true Qi from the Nascent Soul downward through the coccyx, Dazhui, Tianling, Baihui, and then to the Magpie Bridge, downward through the Tanzhong and back to the Qi Hai and Nascent Soul. Every time it went around, the meridians expanded a little bit.

　　In the past, the flow of true Qi was like a small stream passing through a canal, but now it is like a small stream gradually merging into a large river, rushing through the meridians throughout the body, expanding the meridians more than ten times as large as before.

　　Every time the Qi rotated, the Nascent Soul seemed to change, gradually getting bigger, with a mouth and ears, hands and feet, and slowly it even had expressions and movements. Finally, the Nascent Soul put its hands together and stood in the Qi Sea, as if it was transforming. Li Qingfeng knew that at this moment he was about to enter the first level of the Lingtian Heart Method, the unity of mind and body.

　　This time it was truly a blessing in disguise. If the poisonous dragon had not attacked when the icy true energy erupted, the icy true energy would have automatically attacked the external enemies, dissolving a lot of them. At the same time, it also merged with a trace of Li Qingfeng's true essence, making it much easier for him to refine it now.

　　Yuanying is also known as Yuanshen, which is a common name in the world of cultivation. The Yuanying that has just been cultivated is in a chaotic state, which is equivalent to a body formed by the condensation of true qi. However, at this time, the Yuanying has no thoughts of its own and cannot speak. After achieving the unity of mind and spirit, the Yuanying is transformed into Yuanshen, and it can circulate true qi and generate true qi independently, and it can think, and the true qi generated is also more refined and pure.

　　Li Qingfeng's Nascent Soul is now in the period of gradual transformation into Primordial Spirit. The Primordial Spirit is gradually taking human form. When the Nascent Soul is transformed into the Primordial Spirit, it has independent thoughts. The higher the level of cultivation, the stronger the spirituality of the Primordial Spirit.

　　The soul was now blurred by a layer of light golden light, but its eyebrows, eyes, ears and nose were vaguely visible. Li Qingfeng gradually turned his thoughts to the soul. The soul transformed from the Nascent Soul now looked like a newborn baby, with fair and transparent skin, a round little head, and all the facial features. Its pair of smart little eyes kept rolling around, with a little bit of injustice and excitement, and a little bit of arrogance.

　　Li Qingfeng's consciousness tightly wrapped around his soul, and he felt a warm feeling rising up, which was very comfortable. He couldn't help but indulge in it. He felt that the circulation of the true qi didn't need to be controlled by himself at all, and the soul adjusted the circulation and flow of the true qi according to his meridians.

　　If he and his Nascent Soul were still friends the moment before, then at this moment he and his Primordial Spirit were in perfect harmony, inseparable. Any thought of Qingfeng Li's Primordial Spirit would immediately react, as if he had an extra assistant in his body, helping him manage the circulation of the True Qi in his body and controlling the speed of the True Qi's circulation.

　　Many meridians that Li Qingfeng didn't know about were opened up one by one under the influence of the true qi controlled by his soul. Li Qingfeng felt that he had never understood his body so clearly. As long as he moved his mind slightly, every meridian and blood vessel in his body appeared clearly in his mind. His body seemed to be a complete map, with mountains, plains, lakes, and more importantly, criss-crossing meridians and blood vessels.

　　Rui'er woke up from her deep thoughts and saw that Li Qingfeng now had broad shoulders and a thin waist. His skin was as white and delicate as a baby's, with a faint blush flowing through his skin. It felt like the muscles all over his body contained explosive power, and the lines on his face were as strong and powerful as if cut by a knife or an axe, full of masculinity.

　　Rui Er's heart was pounding, and a blush crept up her face. She thought, "What kind of martial arts did he practice to become so handsome!"

　　Qingfeng Li slowly withdrew his mind from his body and opened his eyes.

　　In the darkness, Qingfeng Li could clearly see everything in the carriage. Seeing Rui'er in front of him was already wearing men's clothing, he suddenly thought of the curvy figure in the darkness, and his heart trembled.

　　When Rui'er saw Li Qingfeng waking up from his meditation and looking at her with his fierce eyes, her whole body was shocked and she felt a current-like feeling flowing through her body. She couldn't breathe or think. She was filled with joy, but she couldn't help but feel emotional.

　　Over the past few months, from saving her from the hands of the elder of the Demon Sect, to practicing together along the way, to rescuing people in the Soul Devouring Hall, the love that had suddenly grown over the past few months, lingered all the way, and finally burst out in an instant at this moment.

　　Rui Er was so confused that she couldn't help but want to tell him that she was a girl, but he seemed to be unaware of her thoughts. For a moment, she couldn't help but feel confused. Her frantic mood was like hair flying aimlessly in the wind!

　　Li Qingfeng had already seen the changes in her expression, and he could not help but gently hold Rui'er's soft hands, smiling and saying, "Miss Rui'er, thank you for these few days."

　　Rui Er's face immediately turned red. She knew that he had already woken up when she changed clothes and knew that she was a girl. She couldn't help but feel anxious and embarrassed. She didn't know what to say for a moment. Her eyes turned red and she couldn't help crying. While crying, she gently hit Qingfeng Li's chest with her pink fist: "You are bad, you are bad, you bully others."

　　When Qingfeng Li saw Rui'er's eyes filled with tears, she looked like a peach after the rain. Even though she was dressed in men's clothes, her natural beauty could not be concealed. He couldn't help but wonder why he hadn't noticed it before?

　　Li Qingfeng didn't know that Rui'er had deliberately dressed as a man before, used a special ointment to change her skin color, and paid attention to changing her movements. In addition, Li Qingfeng and his friends all lived in seclusion and were ignorant of the world, so they didn't realize that she was a woman dressed as a man.

　　Although Li Qingfeng was ignorant of worldly affairs, he knew Rui'er's feelings for him and slowly embraced her in his arms.

　　Although Li Qingfeng practiced Buddhism, Tantric Buddhism did not prohibit women, and he practiced in the secular world, more like a Taoist practitioner.

　　Rui'er cried for a while and felt a little tired. She leaned on Li Qingfeng and fell asleep. She was exhausted because she had not had a good rest in the past two days taking care of Li Qingfeng.

　　Li Qingfeng didn't dare to move at all and had to maintain this posture. It was so hard!

　　But having her in my arms, I feel both pain and happiness!

　　23. Volume 1: The Birth of Ten Thousand Demons - Chapter 22: Tianyun Temple

　　Zhongzhou is a vast land. The famous southern city "Chishui City" is located in Nanshui County, Zhongzhou. It is famous for the "Chishui River" in front of the city.

　　According to legend, the Chishui River was transformed from a magic weapon of the immortal 'Beiyou Xianjun', named 'Chitianshui Linglong'. For some reason, it was stolen by a minor immortal into the mortal world. Later, for fear of punishment from Beiyou Xianjun, the immortal hid the Chitianshui Linglong in the Chishui River. Since then, the flow of the Chishui River has increased dramatically, and the river channel has widened at least ten times. People lived along the river, and gradually formed the current Chishui City, a famous city in the south of Zhongzhou.

　　Later generations have always been very respectful of the Chishui River. A river temple was built on the river bank. It is said that the temple is very efficacious and that if an ordinary family has a minor illness or pain, the temple will be cured as soon as they pray. From then on, the Chishui River was regarded as a sacred river by everyone, and no one dared to be disrespectful to it.

　　Chishui City, Zhongzhou Imperial City and Taihe City are known as the three famous cities in Zhongzhou, and people often call them the Three Capitals of Zhongzhou.

　　Chishui City has a circumference of 42 li, with 24 city gates. The Chishui River runs around the city, forming a natural barrier. Now, Chishui City has become a metropolis comparable to the imperial capital. Since it is close to Yunzhou and Dapingzhou, the Aomi people, a unique ethnic group in Yunzhou, can be seen everywhere on the streets. Most of them are merchants, but the Dala people in Dapingzhou are rarely seen in Chishui City.

　　Tianlu Peak is located about fifty miles south of Chishui City, with its back against the snow-capped Tianlu Mountain and overlooking the fertile plains of Chishui. The mountain is lush with forests and evergreen all the year round. It is surrounded by peaks and looks like a city corridor. The mountain is particularly deep and winding because of its towering ancient trees, green vines blocking the sun, crisscrossing ravines and unpredictable peaks.

　　Tianyun Temple, one of the three major Buddhist sects, was built on this mountain. The Tianlu Peaks are extremely vast and majestic. The main peak, Tianlu Peak, is located among the peaks, towering like a crane among chickens. Tianyun Temple is located on the top of Tianlu Peak. Looking from a distance, you can see lush greenery, egrets playing in the water nearby, and mountain birds singing, just like a natural picture.

　　The first thing you see when you enter the temple is the Heavenly King Hall. In the center of the hall is enshrined the future Buddha Maitreya, the monarch of the Buddhist kingdom who lives in Tushita Heaven. On both sides of the Heavenly King Hall are the four heavenly kings who protect the Buddha. Behind Maitreya, with his back to the north, is the statue of Skanda, who is very much loved by the Buddhist world.

　　After the Heavenly King Hall, it is the main hall of Tianyun Temple, the Mahavira Hall. There are nine stone steps in front of the hall, six large stone columns are arranged on the front eaves, and a demon-subduing Vajra about two meters high stands behind the Heavenly Gate. The hall has five rooms, double eaves and flying roofs, simple and magnificent, and tall pines stand on both sides of the stone steps. The main hall enshrines Sakyamuni Buddha, and two disciples of Buddha stand on both sides. The old one is called Venerable Kasyapa, and the middle-aged one is called Venerable Ananda. There are statues of the Eighteen Arhats on both sides of the main hall. The east side of the main hall is the Galan Hall, and the west side is the Patriarch Hall. Behind these three halls, on the left side is the Lufu Palace, which is the residence of the head elder of the temple. Going down from the Lufu Palace to the east, you can reach the Mingxin Hall. Here, the solitary peaks are beautiful, the stone paths lead to secluded places, and it is dust-free all year round. There are courtyards between the halls, with camellias and azaleas several meters high planted, and spring orchids and autumn chrysanthemums under the trees. It is mainly where the disciples of Tianyun Temple live.

　　At this time, a horse-drawn carriage was galloping on the road not far from Tianlu Peak. It was Li Qingfeng and Shangguan Ruier who had just recovered from a serious injury.

　　Li Qingfeng pointed at the towering Heavenly King Hall on the steps and said excitedly, "This is Tianyun Temple. It's really good. It's comparable to our Lingyuan Peak. It's worthy of being one of the three great sacred mountains in Zhongzhou. They really know how to choose a place."

　　Rui Er's relationship with Qingfeng Li deepened along the way. Although they had not explained it to each other, they had become closer. She also learned a lot about Qingfeng Li's master. She said angrily, "There are countless blessed places in the world. Let's see if you dare to look down on the heroes of the world."

　　She changed into a light yellow long dress, which set off her graceful figure. She looked like a fairy from heaven, exuding alluring beauty. After Li Qingfeng knew her daughter's identity, she stopped wearing men's clothes.

　　Li Qingfeng suddenly had an idea and looked towards the direction of Tianyun Temple and said calmly, "Someone is coming."

　　Rui'er looked in astonishment, and saw a middle-aged monk in a gray robe flying towards them with a green flying sword under his feet.

　　The middle-aged monk secretly probed, but could not sense Li Qingfeng's cultivation at all. He knew that his cultivation was definitely higher than his own, so he became more respectful, stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Two donors, what brings you to our humble sect?"

　　Li Qingfeng quickly stepped forward and said, "Senior Brother, I am Li Qingfeng from Lingyuan Temple. I am here to visit your sect on the orders of my master Yuanmu."

　　The middle-aged monk nodded. When he heard Li Qingfeng's introduction, his face looked a little strange. He was stunned for a moment, and said in a less polite manner than before: "So you are a disciple of the Pure Land Sect! Your three brothers are now in the Heavenly King Hall. Come with me."

　　Qingfeng Li and Shangguan Rui'er arrived at the Heavenly King Hall. Zhineng and the others jumped up as soon as they saw Qingfeng Li, and shouted, "Wow, you're completely healed now. Rui'er insisted on taking care of you, so we rushed over to get the baby back as soon as possible."

　　Zhineng whispered, "We have arrived here for a few days, but the head of the temple has not received us yet. I don't know why!"

　　Qingfeng Li nodded gently to show that he understood, and then smiled to himself, "Thanks to Rui'er's care, my injuries have healed."

　　When the spirit ape saw Li Qingfeng coming in, it squeaked a few times, pounced on Li Qingfeng, and grabbed Li Qingfeng's clothes tightly.

　　Li Qingfeng held the ape in his arms and said, "Xiaobai, have you been well behaved these days?" The ape understood what Li Qingfeng said and nodded repeatedly, causing everyone to laugh.

　　When Rui'er saw the spirit ape, she snatched it from Li Qingfeng's arms and held it in her arms without saying a word. This time, the spirit ape did not even struggle and seemed to enjoy it.

　　Qingxuan's eyes sparkled as he stared at Rui'er's delicate and pretty face. He was shocked and finally realized, "Wow, this person must be Rui'er? I thought so. It turns out to be a girl!"

　　Li Qingfeng almost felt dizzy and sighed, "Senior Brother, pay attention to your image!" After saying that, he looked at the corner of Qingxuan's mouth.

　　Rui'er thought of the scene in the car, and a blush appeared on her face and she lowered her head.

　　Qingxuan quickly wiped the corner of his mouth with his sleeve, only to find that he had been tricked. He couldn't help but scream. Zhiyuan couldn't stand it anymore and said a few words, and Qingxuan finally calmed down.

　　Seeing that no Tianyun Temple disciple had come out to greet them for such a long time, and that they were all in a hurry, Li Qingfeng couldn't help but wonder, "Brother Zhiyuan, have you seen the head of Tianyun Temple? Did something happen in Tianyun Temple? Why didn't anyone come to greet us?

　　Zhiyuan said, "Since we arrived, Tianyun Temple has been indifferent to us, except for the elder who came out to receive us. I wonder why?"

　　While everyone was thinking about it, a young monk came in and bowed slightly, saying, "My friends, the master wants to see you."

　　24. Volume 1: The Birth of Ten Thousand Demons - Chapter 23: Everyone is shocked

　　Because of some secrets between the two families, Li Qingfeng left Rui'er in the guest room.

　　The four followed the young monk to the main hall.

　　The main door of the Great Hall was open, and three Buddhist practitioners with solemn expressions and extraordinary bearing were sitting there. Dozens of Buddhist practitioners were standing next to them, and they were obviously elders.

　　These three cultivators each had a strange appearance. The one in the middle had a thin face and wore a golden cassock with a Buddhist hundred-character knot on it. His long eyebrows were snow-white, but his eyes were clear and transparent without a single gleam of brilliance. The one on the left was extremely fat, just like Maitreya. The one on the right was also wearing a golden cassock and seemed to be the leader of a sect.

　　Zhiyuan and the others hurried forward to pay their respects. Zhiyuan stated the purpose of his visit: "Master Yuanlong, we are here on the orders of our two senior masters Yuanxin and Yuanmu to visit you and inform you of an important event."

　　Yuanlong secretly looked at Zhiyuan and the others. These disciples were probably the best among the young disciples of Lingyuan Temple in recent years. They had extraordinary aura. It seemed that Lingyuan Temple was indeed showing signs of revival.

　　The fact that he ignored them a few days ago was probably intended to dampen their arrogance, but it was obvious that these people were quite good at cultivating their qi.

　　The fat monk sitting next to Yuan Long couldn't help but say, "Humph, the Pure Land Sect still has the nerve to send someone over here?"

　　Yuan Long, the head of Tianyun Temple, smiled slightly and said to the fat monk next to him: "It has been eight hundred years since Hui Deng founded the Pure Land Sect. Many of the grievances here have nothing to do with these younger disciples. Brother Yuan Kong, can't you see through it?"

　　The fat monk Yuan Kong snorted and said no more.

　　It turns out that eight hundred years ago, Huideng was a monk practicing in Tianyun Temple. He was expelled from Tianyun Temple for violating temple rules. Later, he injured many disciples of Tianyun Temple due to verbal abuse. Finally, the head of Tianyun Temple at that time took action to subdue him, but at that time he valued his talent and did not abolish his practice. Over the following hundreds of years, the relationship between the two temples deteriorated further because of the incident of the Dark Demon Lord. It was not until the head of Tianyun Temple was passed to Yuanlong that the relationship between the two temples improved slightly, but there has been no contact since then.

　　Yuanlong then said to Zhiyuan and the others, "You are all young talents, each of you has extraordinary cultivation. I wonder what you want to say to our temple."

　　Zhi Yuan's face darkened, and he said sadly: "The Dark Demon Lord has escaped from the magic trap array and killed countless disciples of our temple. My master ordered me to come and inform your temple so that you can make preparations early!"

　　Yuan Long's face, which had always been calm, finally changed color and he said in surprise, "Could it be that the catastrophe of the cultivation world has come again? Once this demon appears, there will be blood and gore. Your temple has achieved what it sought, which is admirable! We were negligent in the past few days, and it seems that we were stingy and almost missed the big thing!"

　　Yuanlong stood up, clasped his hands together, and bowed in the direction of Lingyuan Temple.

　　The faces of the people around him also changed drastically. The Dark Demon Lord had caused a huge disturbance in the Central Continent back then. It was suppressed with great difficulty, but now he has broken the seal and reappeared. Although the Dark Demon Lord is not scary, once he opens the passage to the Demon World, there will be no peace on the continent.

　　After a while, Yuan Long calmed down and said to the monk on the right: "Master Kongtian, what do you think about the matter of the Dark Demon Lord?

　　Unexpectedly, the monk on Yuanlong’s right was actually Kongtian, the abbot of Fashang Temple.

　　It turned out that the head of Fashang Temple, Kongtian, happened to be visiting these two days, and today Yuanlong invited him to meet several disciples of Lingyuan Temple.

　　Kong Tian said: "When the devil appears, all living things will suffer a catastrophe. The rampant rampage of the Yin Yue Cult is already a headache, and now the world is going to be in chaos again. However, it is our nature to subdue demons and defend the Way, so how can we ignore it?"

　　Yuan Long sighed and said, "Yes, it seems that only by joining forces with other Buddhists and practitioners can the Dark Demon Lord be sealed again."

　　Li Qingfeng couldn't help but feel fond of these two people and secretly admired them. They were indeed senior masters in the Buddhist world. They were able to leave the world to practice and return to the world as human beings. This was very rare in the world of cultivation.

　　Zhiyuan saw that the head of Faxiang Temple, Kongtian, was also here, so he saluted and said, "So it's Uncle Kongtian. Uncles Yuanmu and Yuanxin also asked us to visit Faxiang Temple this time to inform them of this matter." Kongtian laughed and said, "I didn't expect these two people still remember me."

　　Li Qingfeng couldn't help but step forward and said, "Two masters, the Dark Lord was seriously injured when he escaped from the magic trap. I'm afraid he won't be able to recover in a few years."

　　Li Qingfeng continued, "But I don't know what the origin of this Yin Yue Sect is. It is so cruel that it actually uses babies to cultivate Yin spirits."

　　Yuan Long said, "The Yin Yue Sect's actions are very mysterious. My sect only learned about this sect recently. I have asked Elder Qingxu to send the eighty babies you rescued back to their original families. Those whose parents could not be found have also been adopted by others. I heard from them that you were the one who destroyed the Soul Devouring Hall of the Yin Yue Sect. You are really a young person to be feared, haha."

　　Kong Tian looked at Li Qingfeng and the others, and suddenly said, "I heard that the immortal weapon Chi Tian Shui Ling Long from Chi Shui City is about to be born. You should go and have a look."

　　Li Qingfeng thought to himself, I don't know what this Chi Tian Shui Linglong is, but since it is a fairy weapon, I'm afraid there will be a lot of people trying to grab it.

　　Yuanlong said, "You guys stay in the temple first, Zhiming, you take them around the temple."

　　Zhiyuan and others knew that they were going to discuss the matter of the Dark Demon Lord, so they withdrew.

　　Zhiming, a disciple of Tianyun Temple, was a short and slightly fat young monk. It seemed that he did not mind the feud between Tianyun Temple and Lingyuan Temple at all. He chatted and laughed with Li Qingfeng and the others along the way, and introduced the nine halls and three courtyards of Tianyun Temple to them one by one.

　　"It is said that our Tianyun Temple has a history of 1,900 years since its founding, and has gradually formed its current scale to this day. There are nine halls and seven courtyards in the temple. The nine halls are the Mountain Gate Hall, Heavenly King Hall, Great Hall, Galan Hall, Patriarch Hall, Ksitigarbha Hall, Mingxin Hall, Guanyin Hall, and Seven Buddha Hall. The three courtyards are: Bodhidharma Courtyard, Arhat Courtyard, and Elders Courtyard. There are a total of 10,000 disciples in the temple. I heard from the older brothers that in Zhongzhou, except for Daming Temple, our Tianyun Temple is the largest. However, the Buddhist practitioners in Daming Temple cannot compare with those in our Tianyun Temple." Zhiming is very smart and speaks clearly. It seems that he is very proud of being able to practice in Tianyun Temple.

　　Li Qingfeng looked at the magnificent hall with its layers and scales, which was at least five times larger than Lingyuan Temple. He could not help but secretly make up his mind to carry forward his master's sect and no longer be burdened with the heavy responsibility of his master.

　　Zhineng looked at the maze-like palace and courtyard and couldn't help but clapped his head and said, "Wow, this is so spectacular. When will our Lingyuan Temple be able to have such a large scale? How many junior brothers can I command then? Everyone couldn't help but smile bitterly after hearing what he said. This guy actually only wanted to have more junior brothers for him to command. It was really unbearable.

　　Rui'er was holding the spirit ape and playing with it. She didn't care what they said and just followed behind everyone.

　　Seeing that Zhiming was so familiar with the situation in Zhongzhou, Qingfeng Li asked, "Where is Chishui City, and what is Chitianshui Linglong?

　　25. Volume 1: The Birth of Ten Thousand Demons - Chapter 24: Concentrated Training

　　Zhiming looked at Li Qingfeng with surprise. Chishui City is one of the three capitals of Zhongzhou, and is known as one of the three famous cities in Zhongzhou along with Zhongzhou Imperial City and Taihe City. Yet he didn't know about this.

　　Zhiming was stunned for a moment and then said, "Chishui City is located on the middle bank of the Chishui River, about fifty kilometers away from our Tianlu Peak. There is an official road that leads directly to Chishui City from the way you came to Tianlu Peak. It is said that there is an underwater palace hidden in the Chishui River outside Chishui City. In the underground palace, there is the immortal weapon 'Chitianshui Linglong' that was used by Beiyou Xianjun. I only know that this Chitianshui Linglong is an immortal weapon. There are very few spiritual weapons in the cultivation world. I don't know how powerful this Chitianshui Linglong is."

　　Li Qingfeng thought to himself, "I wonder if the immortal weapon is as powerful as my Demon Suppression Tower. Never mind. I won't think too much about it. Anyway, I've finished my work here. I'll go to Chishui City in a few days to take a look."

　　Zhi Yuan pondered for a while and said, "I have heard from Master that magic weapons are divided into treasure weapons, spiritual weapons, immortal weapons and divine weapons. What we used before can only be regarded as treasure weapons. Magic weapons that have reached the level of spiritual weapons can be stored in the owner's body and are consistent with the owner's mind. They are extremely powerful. The Demon-Suppressing Tower and the Lantern Sword used by Junior Brother Qingfeng are both spiritual weapons. Immortal weapons are even higher than spiritual weapons. And this Chi Tian Shui Linglong was used by the Immortal Lord Beiyou. It must be extraordinary."

　　When Qingxuan heard this, his eyes widened and he had a strange smile on his face. I wonder what he was thinking.

　　Zhineng shouted, "Then what are we waiting for? Let's go to Chishui City as soon as possible.

　　Zhiming smiled slightly and said, "I heard from the headmaster that the underground palace under the Chishui River has not been opened yet. If we go there now, we won't be able to find the entrance to the underground palace.

　　After hearing this, Zhineng was stunned and said, "I didn't expect it to be so troublesome!"

　　Zhiyuan said: "If it were easy, it would have been found long ago. How could it wait until we arrived?"

　　Zhineng was usually afraid of Zhiyuan. After hearing this, he scratched his head and kept silent. Although Li Qingfeng had the highest skill, he was the most amiable person, so no one was afraid of him and was happy to be close to him.

　　Qing Xuan suddenly said: "Now everyone knows that Chi Tian Shui Ling Long is about to be born. We have so few people, we may not be able to grab the magic weapon even if we find it?

　　Li Qingfeng knew that Qingxuan was telling the truth. After thinking for a while, he asked Zhiming, "Is there any place in the temple where we can meditate in peace? I would like to meditate here with my fellow brothers for a few days before going to Chishui City." Zhiyuan and the others didn't know what his intention was, but they all knew that this junior brother must have been thinking of something.

　　Zhiming said, "Yes, follow me," and took everyone to the Mingxin Hall where the disciples of Tianyun Temple practiced in seclusion, then said goodbye and left.

　　The Mingxin Hall is divided into many independent rooms, each about five meters long and three meters wide. The rooms are closed with formations. After entering the room, the formation is automatically activated, isolating it from the outside world, so that people can concentrate on practicing in the meditation room.

　　Li Qingfeng sat cross-legged in the room. Seeing this, Zhiyuan also sat down cross-legged. Everyone formed a circle. Rui'er and the spirit ape were playing in the corner of the room. They just glanced at Li Qingfeng from time to time. Occasionally, their eyes met, and Rui'er couldn't help blushing. She lowered her head and continued to play with the spirit ape.

　　Li Qingfeng said: "The immortal weapon Chi Tian Shui Ling Long in the Chi Shui River is very important to our sect. If we can obtain this immortal weapon, our sect will be able to increase its strength and regain its place in the world of cultivation. However, after several battles with the Yin Yue Sect, I realized that my skills are still far behind those of the masters. Now, we should take advantage of these few days to practice and strive to improve our skills. What do you think, brothers?

　　Zhineng said, "How much can we improve in just a few days?" Zhiyuan also had the same idea, but he didn't know what tricks Qingfeng had, so he looked at Qingfeng to see if he had any ideas.

　　Li Qingfeng said, "Last time I came out, Master gave me some elixirs. I will distribute them to all my fellow disciples today. Everyone, hurry up and practice. I think with so many elixirs, each of us can improve our skills a lot."

　　After Li Qingfeng finished speaking, he took out three hundred mid-grade elixirs and thirty high-grade elixirs from his storage belt and distributed them to Zhiyuan, Zhineng and Qingxuan. He smiled as he looked at the surprised expressions of the three, especially Qingxuan, whose mouth was so wide that an egg could be stuffed in. He wanted to say something but shook his head and stopped talking.

　　Zhi Yuan knew that Li Qingfeng was always creative, but he didn't expect that he would have so many elixirs. He couldn't help but shook his head with a wry smile and said, "We, the senior brothers, are really speechless. Junior Brother Qingfeng, you have so many good things on you. If you have any good things, please take them out. Don't let us, the senior brothers, be jealous!"

　　Li Qingfeng said: "In addition to these elixirs, there are some magic weapons in this storage belt, but we can't use them at the moment. Okay, let's start practicing."

　　Zhineng knew that this elixir was of great help in cultivating true Qi. The elixir given by Li Qingfeng earlier helped him improve his skills a lot in a short period of time. He stopped talking, put the elixir in his mouth and started to cultivate.

　　Although spiritual elixirs can be used to quickly help improve one's skills, there are also disadvantages. The true Qi cultivated with spiritual elixirs has not been assimilated into one's own true Qi and cannot be used immediately. It must circulate back and forth in the body and be assimilated into the true Qi in the body before it can be used freely.

　　Seeing the three people in a state of meditation, Li Qingfeng came to Rui'er and whispered, "Rui'er, it might be dangerous to go to the Red Water River to search for immortal artifacts this time. Why don't you stay in Tianyun Temple and wait for us to come back."

　　When Rui Er heard this, she glanced at her mouth, her eyes suddenly misted up, a tear gradually overflowed from her eyes, and she whispered: "You don't care about me anymore, go away, I won't care about you anymore!"

　　Li Qingfeng knew that the little girl was going to get stuck in a rut again, so he joked, "Rui'er is a great beauty. How could I ignore such a beautiful girl? It's just that there are so many experts this time, and I'm afraid I can't protect you."

　　Rui Er had always had a crush on him, but she had never known how to express it, especially when Qingfeng Li was seriously injured. She had already fallen deeply in love with him. Seeing him joking with her in such a smooth way, she couldn't help but burst out laughing: "Then I will follow you, too, unless you don't like me following you."

　　Li Qingfeng also felt Rui'er's affection for him, and coupled with her meticulous care for him when he was injured, he couldn't bear to ask her to stay, so he smiled and said, "Okay, I don't want to let Rui'er leave either, hehe." Rui'er giggled and relaxed.

　　Rui'er leaned over to Qingfeng Li's ear and whispered, "My name is Shangguan Rui'er, my home is in Sifang City in Yunzhou, and my father's name is Shangguan Qingyun." As she spoke, she looked at Qingfeng Li with her big watery eyes.

　　Li Qingfeng knew that she didn't want others to know, so he nodded and said, "Rui'er, be good. You play by yourself first. I also need to start practicing meditation." Rui'er nodded like a good baby, and happily played with the spirit ape contentedly.

　　26. Volume 1: The Birth of Ten Thousand Demons - Chapter 25: Communication of Minds

　　Li Qingfeng sat directly on the ground and entered into a state of meditation.

　　After Li Qingfeng's practice entered the first level of the Lingtian Heart Method, the unity of the soul and the spirit, the true energy gradually turned into a light yellow after being purified by the soul. Li Qingfeng had a thought, and a light yellow true energy quickly flowed from the soul along the eight extraordinary meridians of the whole body, gradually gathering and growing stronger as it passed through the meridians of the whole body. Every time the soul turned, the breath became stronger, and the Yin-cold jade crystal true energy in the body was further transformed into Li Qingfeng's acquired true energy.

　　Under the stimulation of the true energy, the primordial spirit gradually took shape. It looked exactly like Li Qingfeng, but much smaller. Li Qingfeng knew that this was only the first step. If he wanted to truly achieve the unity of the primordial spirit and the true spirit, he had to cultivate the primordial spirit to be able to carry out internal circulation, and then he could truly form his own natal spirit.

　　Rui'er played with the spirit ape for a while, and suddenly there was a faint pressure in the room, and she couldn't help but look towards the four people.

　　The four people were seen practicing in different postures. Zhineng was half-sitting with his hands clasped together, Zhiyuan was standing with his left palm facing up supporting his right hand, and Qingxuan's practice was even more peculiar, with his five hearts facing the sky (the top of his head, the palms of his hands, and the soles of his feet), muttering something. When Li Qingfeng was practicing, his whole body was covered in a faint yellow mist, looming, and his hands kept changing hand seals. The faint pressure in the air was emitted by Li Qingfeng.

　　The practice of these four people is exactly the unique practice method of Pure Land Sect, which is consistent with the body shapes and postures of Eighteen Arhats of Buddhism. Tantric Sect uses mantras and hand seals. Qingxuan's practice is relatively low, so he can only rely on mantras to bless his practice, and he cannot use hand seals to bless during practice.

　　Rui'er looked for a while and felt bored, so she wanted to take the spirit ape out to enjoy the scenery of Tianlu Peak.

　　The formation of this meditation room has a set of formulas, and each room has a different one. Only by knowing the formula can you enter and exit freely. Zhiming had told them the formula when he brought them here. Rui'er recited the formula and walked out of the formation.

　　Every time Qingfeng Li circulated his true qi, his fuzzy body became clearer.

　　With the circulation of the true energy, the primordial spirit was finally formed. Li Qingfeng concentrated all the true energy in his body and poured it into the primordial spirit. The primordial spirit glowed, and independent meridians gradually formed in the body, exactly the same as the meridians in Li Qingfeng's body.

　　At this time, the true energy flowed out from the meridians in the Yuanshen body, and then flowed through the meridians of Li Qingfeng's whole body. Every time it circulated, the true energy became a little more refined. As the true energy circulated, Li Qingfeng immersed his mind deeply into the Yuanshen body.

　　The soul gradually grew up under the stimulation of the true essence. The heart armor also gradually changed with the transformation of the soul, and finally, like the pattern on the soul's skin, it was completely attached to the soul.

　　The soul gradually formed a chaotic consciousness. The soul opened its eyes and seemed a little confused: "Who am I?

　　Li Qingfeng almost fainted when he heard this. What kind of soul is this? How come it can't even figure out who it is? He could only smile bitterly and replied, "You are my soul, little guy, did you just wake up?

　　The soul seemed very dissatisfied with his answer and said angrily, "I am not a little fellow, who are you?" Li Qingfeng found this newly cultivated soul very interesting and cute, and smiled, "I am Li Qingfeng, your master."

　　Yuanshen seemed to be a little bit unconvinced of Li Qingfeng's words, and actually slowly sent a spiritual thought from his body to Li Qingfeng's spiritual sea. After a while, Yuanshen finally figured out the relationship between him and Li Qingfeng, and he smiled cunningly: "Haha, who is Shangguan Rui'er?

　　Li Qingfeng was a little annoyed, feeling as if his deepest secret had been discovered. He shouted at his own soul, "How dare you peek at my secret? I don't want you anymore."

　　Upon hearing this, his soul immediately panicked and shouted quickly, "Master, please forgive me, I won't dare to do it again next time." Only then did Li Qingfeng calm down mentally. He was just at a disadvantage. He knew his thoughts, but he didn't understand his thoughts at all. Forget it, his soul knew and would not reveal it to others.

　　The soul seemed to know that Li Qingfeng would not do anything to it, but it did not provoke him anymore. It just closed its eyes and practiced alone.

　　Li Qingfeng knew that his Yuan Shen was the result of his innate true Qi and had its own consciousness. It could be said that it had independent intelligence. However, after all, it was the result of Yuan Qi and its intelligence was not very high. Seeing that he was practicing with peace of mind, he stopped disturbing him. Half of his future practice would depend on his support. Only when his Yuan Shen became strong could the foundation of his practice be solid. So he was not in a hurry to enter the next realm. He slowly withdrew his mind from his body and opened his eyes.

　　Seeing that Zhineng, Zhiyuan and the others were still practicing, he used his spiritual sense to take a look and saw that among them, Qingxuan's cultivation level was improving the fastest and he had already formed an Inner Yuan Pill. Zhineng and Zhiyuan had also reached the late stage of Concentration and were about to form an Inner Yuan Pill.

　　The cultivation realm of a cultivator is divided into seven levels, including: Qi training, gathering essence, combining spirit, concentrating spirit, forming essence pill, gathering spirit, returning to the void. Each level has its own level. If you reach the returning to the void level, you can basically achieve immortality, but you cannot ascend to become an immortal, and can only be considered an earthly immortal. However, the spiritual heavenly heart law that Li Qingfeng practices is different. He practices the way of heavenly immortals. If you surpass the ninth level, you can ascend to heaven and become an immortal Buddha directly. This is a superior method for cultivating immortals and Buddhas.

　　Li Qingfeng knew that Qingxuan would be able to come out soon, while Zhineng and Zhiyuan were now at a critical juncture. Even with the help of the elixir, they could not reach the initial stage of Yuandan within a day, so he recited the mantra and left the Mingxin Hall.

　　But he saw Rui'er flying towards this side with the spirit ape, but the whole body of the spirit ape was completely black, and it turned into a black ape. Li Qingfeng was very surprised!

　　Li Qingfeng saw that the fur of the spirit ape had turned completely black, but it didn't look like it was poisoned, but rather a natural change of the body. He couldn't help but wonder, "Xiaobai, how did you turn into Xiaohei?"

　　The ape seemed very dissatisfied with Li Qingfeng's teasing. It squeaked at Li Qingfeng, but its arms were tightly holding Li Qingfeng's feet.

　　Rui Er saw Li Qingfeng looking at her with questioning eyes, thought for a moment and said, "I saw you were all practicing, so I took the spirit ape to eat. After dinner, we played hide-and-seek in the back mountain. This guy hid, and I searched for a long time before I found it. When I found it, it had turned into a black ape. At first I thought it was poisoned, but apart from turning black, there was nothing wrong with its body, so I quickly brought it back."

　　Li Qingfeng was also very puzzled. He pulled up the spirit ape and observed it carefully. He saw that only the fur had turned shiny black and as smooth as a piece of forged steel, but there was nothing unusual inside the body.

　　He suddenly remembered that in the Pure Land Chronicles, it was mentioned that spirit apes would go through childhood, growth, and adulthood. In their childhood, spirit apes were pure white, and when they evolved to the growth stage, the white hair on their bodies would turn black. At this time, the spirit apes' minds had gradually begun to mature, and if they could be trained, they would be great helpers to cultivators.

　　However, Qingfeng Li treated the ape as a friend and never thought about how to make it serve him. When it reached adulthood, the ape truly evolved into a spirit beast, with a body that could be large or small, and bones as hard as steel. Even a cultivator who had reached the gathering spirit stage was no match for an angry ape.

　　27. Volume 1: The Birth of Ten Thousand Demons - Chapter 26: Red Water City

　　Normally, it takes hundreds of years for apes to complete their infancy and enter their growth stage. This ape, the master uncle said, has only lived for more than 40 years, so how come it has already transformed? In fact, Miao Fa was right. This ape is still in its infancy. Normally, it should take more than 50 years to enter its growth stage. However, because it drank the spiritual spring water when thirsty and ate the spiritual pill when hungry with Li Qingfeng in Qingyun Cave, its growth was accelerated very quickly, allowing it to enter its growth stage ahead of time.

　　Seeing that there was nothing wrong with the spirit ape, Li Qingfeng felt relieved and said to it with a smile: "Xiaobai, I will call you Xiaohei from now on." The spirit ape squeaked twice and calmed down. It held Li Qingfeng's legs tightly. The transformation consumed a lot of its energy and now it needed to rest.

　　Seeing that the monkey seemed very tired, Qingfeng Li took out a magic pill and fed it into the monkey's mouth, then held the monkey in his arms.

　　Shangguan Rui'er saw how meticulously Qingfeng Li took care of the ape and couldn't help but pout, "Humph, you treat the ape better than you treat me."

　　The pink little face is so cute under the bright sunshine. The light green long skirt highlights Shangguan Ruier's delicate figure. The expression of anger on her face is even more fascinating.

　　Li Qingfeng looked up and saw her frowning face. In his eyes, it was even more alluring and he couldn't help himself. His heart was beating wildly and he was thinking wildly. Suddenly he said in a daze, "You are so beautiful!"

　　Shangguan Ruier saw him staring at her blankly, and couldn't help but smile, just like the ice and snow melting and the spring flowers blooming. Li Qingfeng felt that he had lost his composure and was quite embarrassed. He coughed twice and quickly changed the subject, "Any news about Chi Tianshui Linglong?"

　　Shangguan Rui'er seemed to see through his thoughts. She glared at him and said, "I heard from Zhiming that cultivators from many sects are coming to Chishui City one after another. Now this news has spread to several nearby continents. Not only cultivators from Yunzhou and Dapingzhou near Zhongzhou, but even the "Three Saints Sect" far away in Dongzhou and the mysterious cultivator sect "Tianxin Sect" in Heishuizhou have come. Chishui City is very lively now."

　　Li Qingfeng couldn't help but ask: "Then has anyone from our Lingyuan Temple come? Do you know?

　　Shangguan Rui'er smiled and said, "Seeing how anxious you are, I'm not sure about this. There are so many people in the city now, there must be hundreds of sects. But if someone comes from Lingyuan Temple, they should also come to Tianyun Temple." Li Qingfeng thought about it and stopped asking about the sect.

　　Li Qingfeng knew that although his current skills had improved a lot, he was still a long way from those sect masters. Now that so many sects had come at once, it seemed that Chi Tianshui Linglong was too tempting to the world of cultivation. He couldn't help but doubt his decision to snatch this ownerless magic weapon. After all, the strength gap between his side was too great. However, he thought that the magic weapon had not come out , so he might as well rely on luck. Even if he couldn't get the magic weapon, he must find a way to get the master's sect.

　　For the world of cultivation, many people have only seen some legends about immortal weapons in the classics of their masters, but few have ever seen them. Those who can obtain immortal weapons are generally the masters of large sects.

　　The immortal spirit contained in the immortal weapon can help practitioners greatly improve their skills, and most of the immortal weapons were scattered in the human world for various reasons by immortals in ancient times. Immortal weapons are generally spiritual and will automatically choose a master. Unless you have high skills to subdue it, ordinary people may not be able to subdue it even if they see it. Therefore, the cultivation world is very concerned about the birth of Chi Tianshui Linglong this time, especially since this immortal weapon is the magic weapon of the Four Great Immortal Lords, Beiyou Immortal Lord, which makes many cultivators look forward to it infinitely.

　　Shangguan Ruier saw Li Qingfeng lowering his head and not saying anything, knowing that he was worried about the immortal weapon, she said, "Brother Li, don't think too much, let's go around the city, shall we?

　　Li Qingfeng knew that it was useless to think about it, so he smiled and said, "I'm happy to accompany you since you have a beautiful lady here!"

　　Shangguan Rui'er couldn't help but blush, and she summoned her flying sword and flew towards Chishui City. Seeing this, Li Qingfeng laughed and followed her.

　　Chishui City has almost become a world of cultivators. In the past, people rarely saw cultivators, and when they saw one, they worshipped him as a god. Now, cultivators live everywhere in Chishui City, and even on the banks of the Chishui River, there are many cultivators living next to them. The strength of cultivators is much stronger than that of ordinary people. It only takes a cup of tea to build a house, after all, there are many trees on the banks.

　　In broad daylight, the sky was full of sword lights. Ordinary people were surprised and frightened by these flying cultivators. No one dared to go out. For a while, the capital was deserted. Fortunately, when entering the city, all sects reached a consensus not to harass the people. After a few days, the people gradually eliminated their fears, and Chishui City returned to its former bustle.

　　It seems that Shangguan Rui'er is very familiar with the situation of the cultivation world in various continents. She introduced it to Li Qingfeng while flying all the way. In Zhongzhou, the majority of the cultivation world is Buddhist. The main sects include Daming Temple, Tianyun Temple, Fashang Temple, Chongxu Temple, Hengyun Sect, etc., while in Yunzhou, there are Sifang City, Qinglong Sect, etc. Sifang City is famous for making tools and refining pills.

　　Shangguan Rui'er was speaking when Chishui City was already in front of her. She was about to put away her flying sword, but she saw cultivators flying everywhere in the sky above Chishui City, so she flew directly into the city before putting away her flying sword.

　　"Wow, what a beautiful jade bracelet!" Shangguan Rui'er saw some sparkling jewelry hanging on a small stall on the side of the street, and hurriedly pulled Li Qingfeng over.

　　Li Qingfeng saw that they were all ordinary jewelry, which were useless to cultivators and could only be used as decorations. He said nothing and let Rui'er choose the ornaments she liked.

　　After a long while, Rui'er finally picked out a bracelet and a pearl flower, and held them in her hands and compared them with satisfaction.

　　With the help of the elixir, the spirit ape regained its spirits and just opened its eyes to wake up. Seeing Yi Rui'er holding a pearl flower in her hand, it jumped up and snatched the pearl flower from Li Qingfeng.

　　"You bad monkey, give it back to me now."

　　The spirit ape snatched the pearl flower and had already hidden behind Qingfeng Li. Immediately, the man and the monkey chased Qingfeng Li quickly, attracting pedestrians to stop and watch, but many people's eyes were on Rui Er's even and beautiful figure.

　　Li Qingfeng knew that if they continued to make a scene, the street would be blocked. Seeing the ape leaping past him, he stretched out his hand to grab the pearl flower and firmly inserted it into Rui'er's head. Everyone exclaimed in surprise. They didn't expect that this young and handsome boy was the real master.

　　Rui'er stopped and saw that there was a thick circle surrounding her, staring at her. Her face turned red, and she stomped her feet, flying over the heads of the crowd with her sword.

　　Rui'er was originally fresh and beautiful, with a charming demeanor. When she acted coquettishly, everyone felt as if there was a loud bang in their heads and their mouths became dry, as if the saliva in their throats evaporated in an instant. They swallowed hard and stared at Rui'er who was flying away. Until Rui'er flew far away and could no longer be seen, everyone stood there in a daze. It took them a long time to come to their senses.

　　28. Volume 1: The Birth of Ten Thousand Demons - Chapter 27: Secrets

　　Upon seeing this, Qingfeng Li grabbed the spirit ape and chased after Rui'er on his sword.

　　But I only saw two men stopping Rui'er, and they seemed to be talking about something, so I quickly accelerated and went to meet them.

　　"I'm not going back. I haven't had enough fun yet. You guys go back first." Rui'er pouted and looked at the two of them, looking unhappy.

　　"What's wrong? Who are you two? Why are you stopping us?" Li Qingfeng didn't know who the other party was. He thought they were playboys and scoundrels, so he spoke rudely.

　　The leader of the two glanced at Li Qingfeng, knowing that Shangguan Rui'er's reluctance to go home might be related to him, so he bowed and said, "We are from Sifang City. My name is Fan Wuyang. I am here on the orders of the city lord to ask the young lady to go back. What is your name?

　　Only then did Li Qingfeng know that Shangguan Rui'er's father, Shangguan Qingyun, was actually the Lord of Sifang City. The two men were here to invite Shangguan Rui'er back. He felt a little embarrassed and said, "It turns out to be Brother Fan. I'm Li Qingfeng. Haha, I wonder where the Lord of Sifang City is now?

　　Fan Wuyang glanced at Shangguan Ruier and said, "The city lord is now in Chishui City."

　　Shangguan Ruier said happily: "So Dad has come to Chishui City. Did he come here for Chitianshui Linglong? Are Ruolan, Ruoying and the others here?

　　Fan Wuyang said, "The city lord knew that the young lady had sneaked out, and he was very anxious. He was furious at first, but then he missed her very much. We couldn't find you in Yunzhou, and the city lord knew that you liked to be in the hustle and bustle, so he brought us to Chishui City to have a look. I didn't expect to run into you by chance. It's great! Ruolan and Ruoying also followed the city lord out this time."

　　Shangguan Ruier thought to herself, this is great, if I were allowed to go back to the city I wouldn’t be able to see Big Brother Li, but if I don’t go back I’m afraid my father would worry. This time I can let my father help Big Brother Li get Chi Tian Shui Linglong, hehe.

　　"Rui'er, since the city lord...oh, uncle has also come to Chishui City, you should go back quickly?" Li Qingfeng saw Rui'er staring at him with a pair of big eyes, obviously dissatisfied, and quickly changed his words. When Rui'er heard Li Qingfeng change his words to uncle, a smile on her face suddenly bloomed like a bright flower, which made Fan Wuyang and others stunned.

　　Fan Wuyang hurriedly said, "Miss, Mr. Li, I will lead the way." After that, he flew towards the city.

　　After a while, everyone arrived in front of a manor.

　　There were several people standing in the mansion. Shangguan Rui'er's eyes lit up, and she ran over quickly, shouting, "Dad, Dad, you've come out of seclusion. I missed you so much!" Her voice was choked with sobs.

　　That person was Shangguan Qingyun, the mayor of Sifang City. He was wearing a white robe, with a face like a baby, five strands of long beard flowing under his chin, and a kind face that gave people a sense of transcendence. He just laughed and said, "Haha, I really can't do anything about you. Don't cry, you are such a big girl and people laugh at you." The anger he had originally had was also wiped out by Rui'er's crying and jumping, leaving only a heart full of love.

　　Shangguan Qingyun said, "Rui'er, introduce your friend to Daddy."

　　Li Qingfeng quickly stepped forward and bowed respectfully, saying, "Uncle, I am Li Qingfeng. I often hear Rui'er talk about you, and I really admire you."

　　After being flattered, Shangguan Qingyun was so happy that he was beaming with joy, and Rui'er's little face immediately turned red.

　　Shangguan Qingyun has a lot of experience in the martial arts world. He glanced at Shangguan Rui'er and seemed to have realized something. He laughed and said, "Good, good! Heroes are born young. Thanks to you for taking care of Rui'er along the way."

　　At this time, Ruolan and Ruoying also came out. When they saw Shangguan Rui'er, they hurriedly bowed and said, "Miss, where have you been? We missed you so much." It turned out that Ruolan and Ruoying were maids serving Shangguan Rui'er. They grew up together and had already become as close as sisters.

　　Shangguan Rui'er then told them everything she had encountered along the way, including when she encountered the evil spirit summoned by the elder of Yinyue Sect and Li Qingfeng stepped forward to rescue him. She heard Ruolan and Ruoying patting their chests and saying, "That was a close call." She then kept talking about Chi Tianshui Linglong, but omitted the fact that Li Qingfeng was injured and saw her changing clothes.

　　Shangguan Qingyun also said after hearing this: "What nonsense! If Master Li hadn't helped you, would you still be alive? Thank you so much, Master Li. However, the Yin Yue Cult is really unreasonable. They actually bullied the daughter of the Lord of Sifang City. Humph, I must settle this account with them."

　　Fan Wuyang stepped forward and said, "City Lord, why don't you invite Master Li in first?" Shangguan Qingyun said, "Okay, Master Li, please come in."

　　Li Qingfeng said quickly, “I don’t deserve it, Uncle Shangguan, you should just call me Qingfeng.” Shangguan Qingyun knew what Li Qingfeng and Rui’er were thinking, so he laughed and said, “Okay, then I’ll call you Qingfeng.”

　　As soon as I entered the house, I realized that the layout of the house was so exquisite. The mountains, water, gardens and forests were all ingenious, and they matched the owner's broad mind, which made people feel relaxed and happy. There were various plants and flowers everywhere in the courtyard. The grass was green, the flowers were in full bloom, and the air was filled with a faint floral fragrance, which made people feel refreshed.

　　Qingfeng Li had been thinking about the Chitianshui Linglong, and his heart was full of curiosity. He couldn't help but look up and asked: "Uncle Shangguan, do you know about Chitianshui Linglong?

　　Shangguan Qingyun smiled and asked, "Then do you know Immortal Lord Beiyou?

　　"Immortal Lord Beiyou, who is that? Is he an immortal? Although Qingfeng Li has heard that the Red Sky Water Linglong is the magic weapon of Immortal Lord Beiyou, he does not know who the Immortal Lord Beiyou is.

　　"This has to start with the great war between immortals and demons 1,800 years ago. At that time, with the help of the immortal world, the human world prospered and lived in peace with the 'Demon Realm' and 'Ghost City'. This situation lasted for 200 years. The power of the demon world grew stronger, while the human world, with the help of the immortal world, became more and more comfortable. Few cultivators and immortals were able to succeed in their cultivation, and the power of the immortal world could not be replenished. As one grew, the other grew. The status of the immortal world was threatened by the demon world. Although the demon world had not yet shown any moves to invade the human world, the Purple Star Immortal Emperor was worried that once the demon world surpassed the immortal world, it would cause a catastrophe in the immortal world and the human world. So he sent the Northern Worry Immortal Lord to secretly go to the Demon Realm to spy on the news. Unexpectedly, the then Great Demon God of the Demon Realm, Sang Wen, set a trap and killed all eight immortals who went with the Northern Worry Immortal Lord."

　　"Beiyou Immortal Lord resisted with all his might and fled to the Chishui River. He set up the 'Purple Cloud Star Formation' in the river and practiced and recovered in the formation. The main formation device of the Purple Cloud Star Formation was Chi Tianshui Linglong. After that, the struggle between the Immortal Realm and the Demon Realm began. This situation lasted for nearly a hundred years. At that time, the human world suffered the least damage because the cultivation forces in the human world were too weak. The Demon Realm wanted to focus on dealing with the Immortal Realm and had never paid attention to the human world."

　　Although Shangguan Qingyun was not born at that time, there have always been records of this matter in Sifang City, so Shangguan Qingyun knew about this matter in more detail.

　　But what exactly the situation was at that time? So much time has passed and no one knows the real situation.

　　29. Volume 1: The Rise of Ten Thousand Demons - Chapter 28: Baoqing Armor

　　"What happened next? Did the fairy world win, or did the demon world win?" Rui'er had never heard of any legend about this matter, and was very curious about the outcome of this battle.

　　Shangguan Qingyun sighed and said, "It can be said that neither side won. In the end, it took the joint efforts of the Buddhist world and the Immortal world to subdue the Demon World. The Purple Star Immortal Lord and the Buddhist world's Muni Buddha worked together to seal the passage between the Demon World and the human world. The passage between the Immortal World and the human world was also sealed at that time. At that time, many of the cultivation methods of the Immortal World were consciously retained by the Immortal World and the Buddhist World. After that, more and more mortals practiced Immortality and Buddhism. Without the help of the Immortal World, more and more cultivators became Immortals."

　　"In the past thousand years, at least hundreds of cultivators have become immortals, but the passage from the immortal world to the human world was also sealed at that time, becoming a reverse passage. Cultivators can cultivate to become immortals and go to the immortal world, but those who enter the immortal world cannot enter the human world again."

　　Everyone had never heard about the great war between immortals and demons that happened 1,800 years ago, and they were mesmerized by what they heard. Even the spirit ape seemed fascinated by what it was saying, and it held onto Qingfeng Li's legs tightly with its claws, staring at Shangguan Qingyun quietly.

　　Shangguan Qingyun pondered for a while and continued, "And the Immortal Lord Beiyou has been cultivating in the Purple Cloud Star Formation. Some people say that he was injured too badly and his immortal foundation was damaged too seriously, and finally his body and soul were destroyed. Others say that the Immortal Lord Beiyou used the immortal world's annihilation tortoise breath to recover from his injuries, but because his injuries were too severe, he could not wake up from annihilation on his own, and stayed in the Purple Cloud Star Formation, but the Purple Cloud Star Formation could not be forcibly broken from the outside. And now the various strange phenomena displayed by the Chishui River seem to indicate that there seems to be something wrong with the Purple Cloud Star Formation, and the guardian immortal weapon of the formation, the Chitianshui Linglong, is about to break out of the river. But no one knows what the reason is."

　　Qingfeng Li's heart was moved. Could it be that the Immortal Lord Beiyou encountered trouble in the formation and activated the Purple Cloud Star Formation, hoping that someone could go in and help him? But if even the Immortal Lord of the Immortal Realm couldn't solve the problem, how could the cultivators of the Cultivation Realm be able to solve it? What was going on?

　　Li Qingfeng's doubts did not decrease, but he had more questions in his mind. However, he knew that no one would know even if he said it out loud.

　　At this time, Shangguan Qingyun took out a bottle of 'Jiyun Pill' and five Xuanyang Pills from his body, and took out a battle armor and handed it to Li Qingfeng, saying: "Thank you for saving Rui'er. These elixirs are for you. And this Baoqing battle armor, although it is not a top-grade spiritual weapon, it is also very famous in the world of cultivation, so I will give it to you as well."

　　Li Qingfeng knew that since this Baoqing battle armor was a spiritual weapon, it must be something that everyone in the world of cultivation yearned for, because now in the world of cultivation, as long as the cultivators reached the Gathering Spirit Stage, they could cultivate a precious weapon by themselves. The cultivation of a spiritual weapon not only required the cultivators to reach the Return to Void Stage, that is, to reach the Earthly Immortal Realm, but also the better the spiritual weapon, the more difficult it was to find the materials required. If it weren't for the Sifang City Lord who was famous for making weapons and refining pills, I'm afraid few people would have such a big hand. Moreover, the Jiyun Pill and the Xuanyang Pill were even more difficult spiritual pills for cultivators to find.

　　How could he not accept such a good thing? He quickly thanked him and took it.

　　Shangguan Qingyun smiled at Li Qingfeng and said, "You can use this Baoqing armor now, but you need to use your soul to cultivate it before you can unleash its full power. Otherwise, you can only unleash one tenth of the power of this armor. This is the Jade Pupil Slip introducing the armor." After saying that, he handed the Jade Pupil Slip of the Baoqing armor to Li Qingfeng.

　　Li Qingfeng couldn't help but be overjoyed. With this Baoqing Battle Armor, he would be more confident in dealing with the Yinyue Sect. He couldn't help but sit on the ground and start practicing the Baoqing Battle Armor.

　　Li Qingfeng knew that the Jade Pupil Tablet had to be read with spiritual sense, unless the Jade Pupil Tablet was restricted. He quickly divided a trace of spiritual sense into the Jade Pupil Tablet. After a while, he figured it out. The key to controlling a spiritual weapon is to use the innate vitality of the primordial spirit to activate the spirituality of the spiritual weapon, to achieve the first step of recognizing the master, and then use the innate true fire to guide it, so that the spiritual weapon and the user become one. Once he understood, Li Qingfeng immediately began to practice the Baoqing Battle Armor.

　　Shangguan Qingyun was surprised to see that Li Qingfeng understood how to practice spiritual tools in just a short while and began to practice the Baoqing Battle Armor. One should know that the information in the Jade Pupil Scroll would require many cultivators to expend a lot of mental energy even if they had reached a certain level of cultivation. But seeing that Li Qingfeng showed no sign of tiredness and started to practice the Baoqing Battle Armor directly, Shangguan Qingyun was even more impressed by this boy.

　　Shangguan Qingyun didn't know that the Lingtian Xinqing that Li Qingfeng practiced was all about enlightening the mind and cultivating the spirit, emphasizing that the practitioner must have a strong heart and will. His spiritual awareness was at least 50% stronger than that of a cultivator of the same level.

　　The Baoqing armor slowly flew up from Li Qingfeng's hand and was put on Li Qingfeng. A colorful halo enveloped the armor, and a blue light like a spirit snake quickly moved on the armor. It was Li Qingfeng's soul using the innate true qi to activate the spirituality of the armor.

　　Suddenly, a dazzling white light flashed, and the armor became dark, with only a faint yellow light flickering on the armor.

　　Shangguan Qingyun knew that Li Qingfeng had completed the first step of stimulating the spirituality of the armor. He knew that now was the critical moment and there could not be any pause, otherwise the spirituality of the magic weapon would be greatly reduced and the power of the armor would be reduced by at least 30%. He quickly set up a defense formation around Li Qingfeng to isolate him from outside intrusion.

　　The yellow light of the Baoqing armor suddenly became brighter. From a distance, Li Qingfeng's body emitted a yellow light nearly three meters high, and the whole person looked like a golden statue. Li Qingfeng silently chanted the six-syllable mantra and made the Vajra blessing seal with his hands. The yellow light suddenly became brighter and brighter, and instantly the yellow light was absorbed into the armor. The Baoqing armor also gradually became transparent and disappeared into Li Qingfeng's body. It seemed that the practice had been successful.

　　Li Qingfeng let out a long roar, his excitement was beyond words. Not only did he successfully practice the spiritual weapon Baoqing Armor this time, but he also had a deeper understanding of his primordial spirit. He was even about to break through to the fourth level of the Lingtian Heart Method.

　　Li Qingfeng stood up and said to Rui Er happily, "That's great. With this armor, we won't be afraid even if we meet a master like the Soul Devouring Hall Master of the Yinyue Sect again."

　　Rui'er was also very happy after hearing this. Only Fan Wuyang and others looked at Li Qingfeng with envy.

　　Li Qingfeng turned around and said to Shangguan Qingyun, "Uncle Shangguan, thank you so much. This armor seems to have water attributes. It feels so cool when I wear it. It's so comfortable!"

　　Shangguan Qingyun said: "This Baoqing Battle Armor is of water attribute. When I just reached the Return to Void Stage five years ago, I happened to find a piece of extremely cold water essence. I used this water essence to refine the Baoqing Battle Armor. Water attribute spiritual tools are very rare in the world of cultivation."

　　Li Qingfeng scratched his head and said embarrassedly: "I really want to try out the power of this armor. I wonder if I can have a competition with Brother Fan?"

　　Fan Wuyang couldn't help but widen his eyes. There was a two-level gap between the two of them. Fan Wuyang was about to reach the initial stage of the Gathering Spirit Realm. Wouldn't it be bullying for him to spar with him? Thinking of this, Fan Wuyang hurriedly said, "How can this be done? How can this be done? You are a distinguished guest of Sifang City. If I hurt you, I will have a hard time explaining it." As he spoke, he secretly looked at Shangguan Rui'er.

　　Rui Er disapproved upon hearing this and said, "Fan Wuyang is the captain of the defense team in Sifang City, and his skills are almost reaching the Gathering Spirit Stage. No, no, no."

　　Shangguan Qingyun knew clearly that Li Qingfeng definitely had this strength. If he didn't have the Baoqing Armor, Li Qingfeng would definitely have to avoid Fan Wuyang's full-strength attack. But now that Li Qingfeng has successfully practiced the Baoqing Armor, Fan Wuyang's attack could not cause any harm to him.

　　Thinking of this, Shangguan Qingyun smiled slightly and said, "Fan Wuyang, don't worry, just go all out."

　　When Rui'er heard that even her father supported Qingfeng Li, she stopped talking, but her big eyes looked at Qingfeng Li with concern.

　　Seeing that the city lord had spoken, Fan Wuyang bowed to Li Qingfeng and said, "Well, I'll obey your orders, but I didn't use any caution when I attacked you, so don't blame me if you get hurt."

　　Fan Wuyang was afraid that he would use too much force and be scolded by Shangguan Rui'er, so he quickly found an excuse in advance.

　　"Of course, Qingfeng will be careful!" Li Qingfeng still looked calm.

　　The two men deployed their battle formations, obviously ready for a good fight.

　　30. Volume 1: The Birth of Ten Thousand Demons - Chapter 29: The Power of Armor

　　Shangguan Qingyun brought three people to the underground fighting arena.

　　The fighting arena is very large, with a hemispherical top engraved with various talismans and magic arrays that protect the entire arena.

　　A group of people walked in. The whole place was spacious and clean. Shangguan Qingyun smiled and said, "You can try out the armor here with confidence. This place is protected by 19 magic arrays. Even if I attack with all my strength, I can't break the defense. There will be absolutely no problem. You can compete with confidence!" He said confidently.

　　"Otherwise, all the cultivators in the city will be attracted by you."

　　Li Qingfeng stood in the center of the fighting arena. He swayed his body slightly, revealing his light yellow Baoqing battle armor. With a "chi" sound, countless green stars emerged from the armor, which gradually disappeared into the starlight. After a while, a yellow airflow danced around his body, and his entire body was enveloped in a halo of light.

　　Qingfeng Li shouted excitedly, "Brother Fan, come on! Don't let me down, haha."

　　Fan Wuyang originally wanted to use only 50% of his strength, but seeing that Li Qingfeng was so confident and Shangguan Rui'er beside him was looking at him with infinite admiration, he couldn't help but feel uncomfortable and summoned his flying sword.

　　Rui Er was a little nervous when she saw Fan Wuyang summoning the flying sword, and asked quickly, "Dad, will he be okay?

　　Shangguan Qingyun patted Rui'er's head, looked at her with a smile on his face and said, "Girls grow up and can't be kept! Are you in love with him? Why do you care about him so much?"

　　Rui'er's thoughts were seen through by her father. She felt her face burning and lowered her head quickly. Shangguan Qingyun laughed and stopped talking.

　　Fan Wuyang waved his arm, and the emerald green flying sword suddenly lit up. In an instant, a powerful aura burst out. Although Fan Wuyang's flying sword was not a spiritual weapon, it was also a top-grade treasure, named the Green Scale Sword.

　　This time Li Qingfeng couldn't help but be a little surprised. He didn't expect that Fan Wuyang's cultivation had already reached the Spirit Gathering Stage. He couldn't help but add another 20% of his strength, preparing to use 70% of his strength to resist Fan Wuyang's attack.

　　Under his urging, Fan Wuyang's flying sword also struck towards the yellow airflow like a ray of light. With a "chi" sound, the yellow airflow swirling around Li Qingfeng only fluctuated a few times and dissolved Fan Wuyang's Bi Lin sword silently.

　　Fan Wuyang felt a shock all over his body. He quickly retracted the Jade Scale Sword, secretly surprised that this Baoqing Battle Armor was too powerful. He began to put away his contempt and re-estimate Li Qingfeng's strength.

　　Shangguan Qingyun watched with a smile on his face. Ever since he saw Li Qingfeng successfully practice the Baoqing armor in just a few moments and completely control the magic array inside the armor with his own magic power, he knew that this young man was no simple man. However, he did not expect that he would have no reaction at all under the attack of 70% of Fan Wuyang's strength.

　　Magic arrays were engraved in magic weapons during the refining process. Only after one has completely refined the array with one's own mind and magic power, can the magic weapon be considered to truly belong to oneself. Generally, cultivators do not have strong spiritual awareness, and it takes about two days to refine a magic weapon. However, Li Qingfeng only took half an hour, which was obviously much stronger than many cultivators. That's why Shangguan Qingyun was very optimistic about him. At that time, he handed the Baoqing armor to Li Qingfeng. On the one hand, he wanted to repay him for saving Shangguan Rui'er, and on the other hand, he also wanted to test his cultivation and potential.

　　After trying it, Shangguan Qingyun was naturally very satisfied and secretly happy.

　　At this time, Shangguan Rui'er also quietly turned her attention to Li Qingfeng, only to see that he was unharmed and did not seem to be struggling at all, so she felt relieved and watched the fight with peace of mind.

　　Li Qingfeng smiled and said, "Brother Fan, please don't hold back."

　　Fan Wuyang had already put aside his previous contempt, knowing that Li Qingfeng was able to save the city lord's daughter because of his real ability, and not just luck as he thought.

　　Fan Wuyang said: "In this case, I will use all my strength. Please give me more guidance, Master Li."

　　Li Qingfeng suddenly realized that the aura emanating from Fan Wuyang had completely changed. He was startled and increased the power of the Baoqing Armor by another 10%, thinking that the Baoqing Armor at 80% of its power should be able to withstand it.

　　There was actually a hint of nervousness in Shangguan Qingyun's eyes. He knew that Fan Wuyang was going to use his strongest attack.

　　He pulled Rui Er back a little, set up a small defense in front of Rui Er, and said, "Haha, this is more interesting."

　　Rui'er already had complete faith in Qingfeng Li's ability, so she was not worried at all and continued to look at Qingfeng Li and Fan Wuyang with a smile.

　　The Green Scale Sword was shining brightly again at this time, but countless sheets of air had formed around the light, like fish scales, whizzing and spinning around the sword light. This was Fan Wuyang's specialty, 'Clouds All Over the Sky'.

　　Fan Wuyang shouted, "Mr. Li, be careful!" With a wave of his hand, a curtain of light connecting the sky and the earth came down.

　　Because Li Qingfeng wanted to test the power of the Baoqing armor, he did not dodge, but urged the yellow true energy surrounding him to meet it.

　　The light curtain turned into a torrent and rushed straight towards the yellow true qi, but this time the yellow true qi seemed unable to resist.

　　Li Qingfeng was startled, and secretly formed the Diamond Cross Seal, shouting, "Hurry!"

　　The flying true energy suddenly condensed, but was gradually dissipated under the sky-high cloud stunt emitted by the Green Scale Sword, and came straight towards Li Qingfeng.

　　There was a loud bang that shook the earth, and dozens of yellow air currents swirled out of Li Qingfeng's Baoqing armor, whistling around his body and meeting Fan Wuyang's sky full of clouds.

　　In an instant, the sky shook and the earth trembled. A crisp explosion sounded, and the ground beneath Li Qingfeng's feet cracked. The exploding torrents formed countless small trenches, and the sand and dust that rose into the sky spread outward, shaking the defense formation of the fighting arena.

　　After Fan Wuyang succeeded in his attack, he couldn't help but get excited and shouted, "Master Li, take another one!"

　　Fan Wuyang shook his hands, and the "Sky Cloud" was emitted again. Countless pieces of air wrapped in a golden light rushed towards Li Qingfeng again.

　　Shangguan Rui'er couldn't help but get a little nervous and said, "Dad, tell them to stop."

　　Shangguan Qingyun said: "Don't worry, although Master Li suffered a small loss, he will be fine with his skills."

　　Although Rui'er felt relieved after hearing her father say that everything was fine, she still looked at Li Qingfeng eagerly, fearing that something might happen.

　　After using two consecutive 'Sky Clouds' special skills, Qingfeng Li no longer dared to be arrogant. He used the full power of the Baoqing Armor. A wave of water appeared around Qingfeng Li, like a barrier made of water.

　　Seeing that Li Qingfeng only took a few steps back under the full force of his 'Mantianyun', and that he didn't seem to have used his full strength just now, Fan Wuyang couldn't help but respect Li Qingfeng. However, this time, 'Mantianyun' was swung at with all his strength without holding back.

　　The water wave spun rapidly around Li Qingfeng, completely enveloping his figure in the water shadow. One could only vaguely see Li Qingfeng calm and composed in the water shadow, his hands constantly changing hand seals, and a faint yellow light shone through the water shadow.

　　Fan Wuyang only felt his eyes brighten, and a feeling of powerlessness suddenly spread out. He pulled himself together and shouted, "Mantianyun!" In his heart, he felt that Li Qingfeng was invincible. He knew that Li Qingfeng had fully unleashed the power of the Baoqing armor, but fortunately Li Qingfeng was only defending.

　　But the Jade Scale Sword is extremely powerful after all. It is considered a good treasure in the world of cultivation and is almost a spiritual weapon.

　　Fan Wuyang used all his strength in this attack. Not worrying about his opponent's counterattack, he vented his energy to his heart's content. The clouds in the sky whistled and gathered above Li Qingfeng's head and exploded.

　　The two powerful true energies collided with each other with a loud bang, and the ground of the fighting arena began to undulate like waves. The defense formation rumbled and shook under the strong impact, and the dust that rose into the sky filled the entire arena.

　　31. Volume 1: The Birth of Ten Thousand Demons - Chapter 30: Five Elements Cauldron

　　Shangguan Rui'er hid in the defensive formation and felt relieved when she saw Li Qingfeng still standing steadily on the fighting field.

　　Although Li Qingfeng completely used the Baoqing armor to withstand the powerful force of Fan Wuyang's "Mantianyun", he was also smashed into the ground more than half a meter deep. After a long time, the smoke and dust dissipated, and dozens of cracks on the ground extended outward with him as the center.

　　Li Qingfeng couldn't help but feel his blood boiling after being hit by Fan Wuyang's move of "Clouds in the Sky". The two consecutive attacks were extraordinary. Fan Wuyang was indeed a cultivator who had reached the stage of gathering spirits.

　　However, Li Qingfeng was still very happy. He was not hurt at all under such a strong attack. The Baoqing armor was indeed extraordinary.

　　Fan Wuyang had already reached the limit of his power after hitting Man Tianyun twice in a row. He thought that he could at least injure Li Qingfeng slightly. But he didn't expect that when the dust settled, Li Qingfeng was standing in the middle of the arena without any pretense. He couldn't help but feel discouraged and said, "Mr. Li is indeed extraordinary in power. I admire him!"

　　Li Qingfeng bowed quickly and said, "No, no, thank you Brother Fan for showing mercy." Fan Wuyang knew that Li Qingfeng said this to save face for him, and his favorable impression of Li Qingfeng increased a little.

　　Shangguan Qingyun couldn't help but feel itchy and said, "Mr. Li, why don't we have a competition?

　　When Rui Er heard this, she quickly jumped up from the defensive formation and said, "Dad, I'm still hungry. Let's go." Li Qingfeng breathed a sigh of relief. It was really a bit too much for him to fight again. In fact, when she reached a realm like Shangguan Rui Er, she basically didn't need to eat anymore. But on the one hand, her cultivation was still shallow, her skills were slightly insufficient, and she didn't want to restrain this habit, so she kept the habit of eating.

　　Shangguan Qingyun laughed when he saw this and said, "Okay, okay, let's go up."

　　Li Qingfeng was also dragged along by Rui'er to eat. There were eight dishes on the table, all of them green, red, white and emerald, delicate and lovely. Each dish looked like a work of art. Li Qingfeng didn't need to eat, but seeing how exquisite the food was, he couldn't help but be tempted, and he kept attacking the plate of pink blue fruit in front of him. Shangguan Qingyun hadn't eaten ordinary food for a long time, and just slowly savored the good wine in front of him.

　　Li Qingfeng suddenly thought of the three tripods he saw in Qingyun Cave, which were the alchemy tripods used to refine elixirs, but he had never known how to use them, so he asked, "Uncle Shangguan, do you know the Wumu Tripod, the Jinou Tripod, the Shuiyun Tripod, the Huoxin Tripod, and the Tuning Tripod?

　　When Shangguan Qingyun heard the names of Wumu Ding, Jinou Ding, and Shuiyun Ding, he couldn't help but be overjoyed and asked anxiously, "Over there, is that the Five Elements Ding?

　　"Five Elements Cauldron? What's its use?" Shangguan Rui'er asked curiously after hearing this.

　　"This Five Elements Cauldron is a thing from the immortals. The Wu Mu Cauldron, Jin Ou Cauldron, Shui Yun Cauldron, Huo Xin Cauldron and Tu Ning Cauldron can be combined into one to refine elixirs!" Shangguan Qingyun has loved refining elixirs and making tools all his life, and he is very familiar with various cauldrons and magical tools. If not for this, his cultivation would have broken through his current level long ago.

　　"What if there are only three of them? Can they be used? Li Qingfeng remembered that there were only the Wumu Ding, Jinou Ding, and Shuiyun Ding in Qingyun Cave, while the shelves of Huoxin Ding and Tuning Ding were empty.

　　"Without the power of the five elements, the elixir refined will be much worse. I wonder which two cauldrons are missing? Shangguan Qingyun couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. It has always been his wish to see the elixir-refining cauldron and the five-element cauldron.

　　Seeing that Shangguan Qingyun was a straightforward person, Li Qingfeng thought about it and thought that there should be no problem, so he said: "I also saw it in the master's sect. Among the five tripods, the Fire Heart Tripod and the Earth Condensation Tripod were not there. I didn't expect that these five tripods were actually things of the immortals."

　　Shangguan Qingyun sighed and said, "What a pity, what a pity! The Earth Condensation Cauldron is the center of the Five Elements Cauldron. If the other cauldrons are missing, we can still make pills, but without the Earth Condensation Cauldron, the Five Elements Cauldron is useless!"

　　Shangguan Rui'er and Fan Wuyang also heard of the Five Elements Cauldron for the first time. They looked at Li Qingfeng curiously, wondering why he actually had an immortal cauldron without knowing it.

　　Li Qingfeng couldn't help but feel a little regretful, as he was missing two of the Five Cauldrons, and the most important Earth Condensation Cauldron was also missing, but he was relieved in a blink of an eye: "My power has increased rapidly even without the Immortal Cauldron." Shangguan Qingyun saw Li Qingfeng's regretful expression flash by, and then his face became calm again. He didn't care much about the fact that the Five Elements Cauldron couldn't be assembled. He couldn't help but secretly said: "This boy is really good, he can take it or put it down." Shangguan Qingyun took out a jade pupil tablet from his arms and said: "It contains my weapon making method and alchemy technique, you can take a look when you have time."

　　Qingfeng Li quickly stood up and saluted, saying, "Thank you, Uncle Shangguan."

　　Seeing that her father also liked Li Qingfeng very much, Rui'er couldn't help but secretly look at Li Qingfeng, feeling very sweet in her heart.

　　A few people chatted and laughed, and a few hours passed in a moment. Li Qingfeng thought of Zhineng and the others, so he stood up and said goodbye: "Uncle Shangguan, I have a few brothers in Tianyun Temple, and I want to go see them."

　　Shangguan Qingyun said: "Okay, Chi Tianshui Linglong will be born soon in the next few days, you might as well move here."

　　Qingfeng Li said happily, "Okay, I just happen to have many questions to ask uncle. I will come with my brothers after I meet them."

　　As they were talking, a man came in hurriedly and whispered a few words to Shangguan Qingyun. Shangguan Qingyun's face changed and he said angrily: "Tianyang is too much. I will come right away."

　　Seeing this, Li Qingfeng hurriedly asked, "Uncle Shangguan, I don't know what's going on, can I help you?

　　Shangguan Qingyun hesitated for a moment and said, "Let's go and take a look together." Then he walked towards the door.

　　There was a group of people standing in the courtyard. In front stood five cultivators who seemed to have good cultivation. The one in the middle was wearing a red robe, had thick eyebrows and a big beard, and his hands were so huge that ordinary people's hands looked like children's hands. The four people standing next to him had also reached the initial stage of returning to the void. Behind the five stood a dozen cultivators with weaker cultivation, the highest of whom was only at the Jindan stage. Among them stood two extremely beautiful female cultivators who looked extremely arrogant.

　　Shangguan Qingyun angrily said: "Tianyang, why did you come to my house and curse?

　　Tian Yang, the red-robed cultivator in the middle, said with a grin, "City Lord Shangguan, why are you so angry? If I hadn't scolded you, you wouldn't have come out. I'm sorry, haha."

　　It turned out that Shangguan Qingyun did not want anyone to know that he came to Chishui City this time, so he notified his subordinates to say that he was not in when anyone came. Unexpectedly, Tianyang knew that Shangguan Qingyun must be there, but no one in the house would tell him no matter how he asked. So he thought of a plan and cursed Shangguan Qingyun in the yard. As a result, when the servants reported Shangguan Qingyun, Shangguan Qingyun fell into the trap and came out.

　　"Humph, what's the matter that makes you so anxious to find me? Shangguan Qingyun was too embarrassed to get angry anymore. Tianyang was the mayor of Baofeng City. Although Baofeng City was not as big as Sifang City, it was also very famous in the cultivation world of Yunzhou.

　　"I just want to find you to join forces to find Chi Tianshui Linglong. According to my observation, the Purple Cloud Star Array will be opened in the next two days. It is a good time to enter the array. I came here this time just to borrow a treasure from you. I wonder if City Lord Shangguan is willing?" Tianyang looked at Shangguan Qingyun and said slowly.

　　"I wonder what the Lord of Tianyang City wants to borrow?"

　　"Baoqing Armor".

　　32. Volume 1: The Birth of Ten Thousand Demons - Chapter 31: The Yinyue Cult Leader

　　Shangguan Qingyun was stunned. Although the Baoqing Armor was a good spiritual weapon, Tianyang's own Tianyun Armor was better than the Baoqing Armor? He couldn't help but ask, "Tianyang City Lord, are you kidding? Although the Baoqing Armor is good, it can't compare to your Tianyun Armor!"

　　Tian Yang said: "Could it be that City Lord Shangguan doesn't know that the guardian magic weapon of this Purple Cloud Star Formation is the Chitian Shui Linglong, which is a magic weapon with water attributes. If you use the Baoqing battle armor to enter the formation, you can save a lot of trouble."

　　"So that's how it is. What a coincidence that I have already given this armor to someone else." Shangguan Qingyun said with a smile.

　　"Ah! Give it to someone? To whom?" Tianyang asked hurriedly, his face full of disbelief.

　　Shangguan Qingyun pointed at Li Qingfeng and said, "I have already given it to this Mr. Li. Mr. Li saved my daughter, and I like him very much, so I gave him the Baoqing Battle Armor."

　　Everyone immediately looked towards Qingfeng Li, most of them with envy and disbelief.

　　Tianyang looked at Li Qingfeng for a while, bowed to Shangguan Qingyun and said, "In that case, I will not bother you any more. Goodbye." He turned around and led everyone out. One of the female cultivators in red came forward and said to Li Qingfeng, "What's your name, sir?" Li Qingfeng replied, "I am Li Qingfeng." The woman was about to speak when she heard someone calling, "Nong Yue, let's go." Nong Yue hesitated and walked out quickly.

　　Li Qingfeng said to Shangguan Qingyun: "Uncle Shangguan, I didn't expect that this Baoqing battle armor is the key to entering the Purple Cloud Star Formation. I am really unworthy of it."

　　Shangguan Qingyun waved his hand and said, "That's wrong, but if that's the case, you must seize this opportunity. You may have a chance to obtain the Red Sky Water Linglong. However, the key to cultivation is to cultivate your nature, not to rely on external objects. Alas, I just focused too much on making tools and refining pills, so I haven't made any progress in my cultivation."

　　This speech was like a wake-up call. Li Qingfeng suddenly realized that he really cared too much about this immortal weapon, so his recent practice was very impetuous. Li Qingfeng hurriedly said, "Uncle Shangguan's words, I will keep them in mind." Shangguan Qingyun saw that he was silent for a moment, and then his face was happy. He knew that he had completely understood what he said. Li Qingfeng understood it at once and suddenly realized it. He couldn't help but secretly said, "He is indeed a genius in practice."

　　Li Qingfeng handed the spirit ape to Shangguan Rui'er and said, "I'll give the spirit ape to you first. I'll come to see you after I meet up with Senior Brother Zhiyuan and the others." After saying that, he saluted to everyone, summoned the Burning Lamp Sword and flew towards Tianyun Temple.

　　**********

　　In an extremely large hall, many people stood quietly on both sides of the hall according to their status. In the middle stood a very burly man with his hands behind his back, but there was a layer of black mist on his face, so his features could not be seen clearly. He looked at the people in the hall.

　　In the center of the hall there is a huge stone statue, with bared teeth and claws, more than three feet tall, two horns on its head, blood-red eyes, and scales all over its body. It is immersed in a pool of blood and looks very ferocious. On the stone walls of the hall, there are many shapes of strange beasts carved, as if they are choosing people to devour.

　　"Master, I have observed that the guardian artifact of the Purple Cloud Star Formation, the Chi Tian Shui Ling Long, seems to be unable to suppress the Purple Cloud Star Formation. I speculate that in two days, there will be a loophole in the formation and we can enter the formation. I just don't know whether the Northern Worry Immortal Lord is dead or alive? His Highness is actually the Ghost Hall Master Lie Feng.

　　"Okay, if there is no loophole in the formation, I would not be able to forcibly break through the Purple Cloud Star Formation with my skills. You continue to pay attention." I didn't expect the leader's voice to be extremely young.

　　Yin Yue Sect Leader pondered for a while and said, "Have you found the guy who destroyed the Soul Devouring Hall last time?

　　Lie Feng replied, "Because only Du Long survived from the Soul Devouring Hall, but he was also close to the state of complete destruction of his soul. Although he was healed by the leader, he never recovered. No one has seen that person, so he has never been found, but..." Lie Feng hesitated to speak.

　　"But what? Don't be hesitant." The Yin Yue Sect Leader couldn't help but raise his voice, and everyone in the hall suddenly felt a pressing pressure.

　　"Yes, yes," Liefeng was the first to be hit. He was speechless for a while under the powerful pressure. Sect Leader Yinyue felt it, snorted and gathered his strength, and everyone immediately felt much better.

　　As soon as the pressure was relieved, Lie Feng said quickly, "A few months ago, the Great Elder of our hall fought with a man. This man was very similar to the one that Du Long mentioned. However, a few months ago, this man couldn't even defeat the Yin spirit summoned by the Great Elder. In the end, he was lucky enough to win with the combined strength of several people. A month later, the power of the person who was destroyed in the Soul Devouring Hall seemed to be extremely high, so it should not be the same person."

　　Sect Leader Yin Yue knew that among the three hall masters, although the Soul Devouring Hall Master Du Long had the lowest skill, his magic skills were far superior to those of the hall's chief elder. Since this person could not even defeat the hall's chief elder, it was even more impossible that he almost killed the Soul Devouring Hall Master. It should not be just one person.

　　Yin Yue Sect Leader pondered for a while and said, "Okay, let's ignore this person for now. You guys keep a close eye on everything about Chi Tian Shui Linglong and report as soon as you get any news. Okay, you guys can go down."

　　After the crowd performed a strange salute to the leader, they left the hall one by one. For a moment, only Leader Yin Yue was left in the hall.

　　The Yin Yue Sect Leader pointed with his left hand, and a stream of black evil spirit flew towards the blood pool in the center of the hall. Once it hit the blood pool, the blood pool immediately began to churn.

　　The Yin Yue Cult Leader emitted countless black demonic energy from his body, which entangled the monster stone statue in the blood pool. The demonic energy penetrated into the stone statue as soon as it met the stone statue. In an instant, the scales on the stone statue fell off one after another, and the statue actually came back to life. It spewed out a red demonic energy from its mouth and flew towards the Yin Yue Cult Leader, and in a blink of an eye, the Yin Yue Cult Leader was wrapped in the red demonic energy.

　　After a long time, Yin Yue Sect Leader waved his hands, and the black evil spirit mixed with the red evil spirit slowly absorbed into his body. The stone statue also returned to its original shape, and many scales grew on its body.

　　33. Volume 1: The Birth of Ten Thousand Demons - Chapter 33: Tianbao Heart Sutra

　　As soon as Li Qingfeng returned to Tianyun Temple, Zhiming ran over as if he had been waiting for a long time and said, "You're finally back. Sect Leader Yuanlong asked me to wait for you for a long time."

　　Qingfeng Li couldn't help but ask curiously: "What happened?

　　Zhiming smiled and said, "I don't know either, but the headmaster seems very anxious and asked me to wait for you here. Let's go, the master is waiting for you in Lufu Palace.

　　The two chatted and laughed all the way, passing through the Jialan Hall and the Patriarch Hall, and arrived at the Lufu Palace where the head elder of Tianyun Temple lived. Here, the solitary peaks stand out, the stone paths lead to secluded places, and it is dust-free all year round. In front of the hall, there are camellias and azaleas several meters high, and under the trees are spring orchids and autumn chrysanthemums, which looks like a paradise.

　　Yuanlong's room was on the left side of Lufu Palace. Li Qingfeng came in and saw that although the room was very spacious, there were few furnishings. In the main hall, there was an antique eight-immortal table with eight teacups and a teapot on it. There were two rows of wooden stools beside the table. There were two pieces of calligraphy hanging on the wall facing him. The one on the left read: 'Great success is like a lack, but its use is not exhausted. Great fullness is like a rush, but its use is endless. Great straightness is like bending, great cleverness is like clumsiness, and great eloquence is like silence. Restlessness overcomes coldness, and tranquility overcomes heat. Tranquility is the right for the world'. The one on the right reads: 'When there are laws in the world, horses are used to carry manure. When there are no laws in the world, war horses are born in the suburbs. There is no greater sin than desire, no greater disaster than dissatisfaction, and no greater fault than desire. Therefore, be content, and be content'. Li Qingfeng couldn't help but sigh inwardly. The head of Yuanlong was indeed very advanced. Although he was the head of a sect, his room was so simple. Zhiming brought Li Qingfeng to the back, bowed to everyone, and left.

　　Li Qingfeng saw two people sitting in the room. One of them was Yuanlong, the head of Tianyun Temple. The other one was someone he had never seen before. Judging from his attire, he should also be from Tianyun Temple. He quickly stepped forward and saluted, saying, "Head Yuanlong, what do you want me to do for you?

　　Yuan Long had a slightly worried look on his face. He said to Li Qingfeng, "Sit down." Then he added, "The people from Yin Yue Sect have appeared."

　　Qingfeng Li couldn't help but ask, "How did Sect Leader Wulong know that the Yinyue Sect's people showed up?"

　　Yuan Long said, "This is Zhitian, a disciple of Zhixunyuan of my Tianyun Temple. He is also the disciple of our temple who is out to gather information. He is the one who reported this news. Zhitian, you should tell us."

　　The disciple named Zhitian bowed to Yuanlong and Li Qingfeng and said, "Since the last baby incident, Sect Leader Yuanlong asked us to keep a close eye on the whereabouts of Yinyue Sect. In the past month, there has been no movement from Yinyue Sect, and the disciples rarely come out to move around. There have been no more incidents of babies missing in nearby villages and towns. But a few days ago, people from Yinyue Sect appeared frequently near Chishui City, and they seemed to be secretly investigating the Purple Cloud Star Array in the Chishui River. Later, we found that most of them gathered in the Lost Forest, eighty miles south of Chishui City. Because their defenses were very strict and the Sect Leader asked us not to alert the enemy, we did not follow them in, but we estimate that there may be a branch of Yinyue Sect inside." Zhitian spoke crisply and clearly, and Yuanlong could not help but nod slightly.

　　Li Qingfeng asked: "How did the Yin Yue Sect react after they found out that the Soul Devouring Hall was destroyed?

　　Zhitian said: "The Soul Devouring Hall has now become a ruin. I don't know who did it. Maybe the Yinyue Cult abandoned that place, so they destroyed it. The Yinyue Cult has never investigated the matter again. I don't know why."

　　Zhitian thought for a moment and continued, "However, when I was following a Yinyue Sect disciple, I seemed to vaguely hear that they were looking for you."

　　Li Qingfeng smiled slightly and said, "I just happened to be looking for them, and I was worried that I couldn't find them."

　　Yuan Long pondered for a while and said, "Junior Brother Qingfeng, you must not be careless. There are many masters in the Yinyue Sect, so you'd better be careful."

　　Li Qingfeng chuckled and said quickly: "I only pick on the weak ones. If I meet a strong one, I will run away. I won't fight them head-on." Li Qingfeng thought of the last fight with the Soul-Devouring Hall Master. Now he can't help but feel a little guilty. Who knows how many masters there are in the Yinyue Sect!

　　Yuan Long said: "That's good. If you are defeated, you can come to Tianyun Temple. Although the Yinyue Sect is rampant, it still needs to give way to my Tianyun Temple. However, I don't want to be a full-scale enemy of the Yinyue Sect yet. I have to wait for the right time to destroy the Yinyue Sect."

　　Qingfeng Li knew that Yuanlong was the head of a temple with tens of thousands of disciples, so he had to consider the issue comprehensively. However, he said this to show his support for him, so he couldn't help but said happily: "In that case, thank you, head of Yuanlong. By the way, several of my brothers are still practicing in the Mingxin Hall. I want to go and see them."

　　Yuanlong was also infected by Li Qingfeng's optimistic attitude. He laughed and said, "Well, you are worthy of being the first person in the Pure Land Sect in hundreds of years to successfully practice the Lingtian Heart Method. It's really good." After Yuanlong finished speaking, he took out a jade tablet from his arms and said, "Although the Lingtian Heart Method was created by Zen Master Huideng, most of it originated from the 'Tianbao Heart Sutra' of Tianyun Temple. This jade tablet records the Tianbao Heart Sutra. You can compare it." After speaking, he taught Li Qingfeng the method to open the Tianbao Heart Sutra.

　　Upon seeing this, Zhitian knew that the headmaster wanted to teach Li Qingfeng some skills, so he bowed and left.

　　Qingfeng Li knew that Yuanlong had completely put aside the grudges between the two temples and regarded Lingyuan Temple as a branch of Tianyun Temple. Of course, this mainly reflected his trust and care for him. He was deeply moved and bowed quickly, saying, "Uncle Master, I am truly unworthy of your kindness."

　　Yuanlong said, "Just take a look at it now. If you don't understand something, just ask me." Li Qingfeng said no more and immediately sat down cross-legged, using his spiritual sense to look at the Jade Pupil Tablet.

　　Lingtian Heart Method and Tianbao Heart Sutra can be said to have the same origin. Although Huideng was extremely intelligent and created Lingtian Heart Method, it was still far behind the Tianbao Heart Sutra that had been passed down for dozens of generations. Now that Li Qingfeng has obtained the Tianbao Heart Sutra, many of his previous doubts and puzzles have suddenly become clear. If the previous Lingtian Heart Method is like a surging river, the Tianbao Heart Sutra is like a vast ocean. Li Qingfeng benefited greatly. After two hours, Li Qingfeng woke up from his meditation and had a deeper understanding of cultivation. He asked Tianlong about some of the puzzles in his heart.

　　"Senior, do you know how to enter the Purple Cloud Star Array?" Li Qingfeng asked with a try-it attitude.

　　“The Purple Cloud Star Formation is the unique formation of Immortal Lord Beiyou. Together with Immortal Lord Nan’ao’s Breaking Heaven Formation, Immortal Lord Dong’e’s Trapped Immortal Formation and Immortal Lord Xiling’s Ruochen Formation, they are known as the Four Great Immortal Formations in the Immortal Realm. The formation is extremely complicated and intricate, and with the immortal artifact Chi Tian Shui Linglong guarding the center of the formation, it is extremely difficult to force your way into the formation. However, there is a loophole in the formation now, but it seems to have been launched from within the formation, so I estimate that Immortal Lord Beiyou is still in the formation.” Yuan Long said slowly.

　　"Immortal Lord Beiyou is still in the formation, so why doesn't he come out?" Qingfeng Li couldn't help but wonder.

　　"No one knows the specific reason, but the opening of the Purple Cloud Star Array this time must be related to Immortal Lord Beiyou." Yuan Long glanced at Li Qingfeng and continued, "But you have a great chance of entering the array this time."

　　Li Qingfeng was slightly stunned and asked, "Why would Master say that?

　　34. Volume 1: The Birth of Ten Thousand Demons - Chapter 34: Purple Cloud Star Array

　　Yuanlong smiled and said, "You are lucky. Shangguan Qingyun has put on the Baoqing armor. The Baoqing armor is a water-attributed spiritual weapon, and the guardian magic weapon of the Ziyun Star Array, the Chitian Shui Linglong, is also of water attribute. This will be of great help to you in entering the array." Li Qingfeng knew that Yuanlong had seen that he was wearing the Baoqing armor, and could not help but ask, "Then how can you make the best use of the Baoqing armor to successfully enter the array? Yuanlong smiled slightly and said, "You will know when you enter the array." In fact, it's not that Yuanlong didn't say it, because Yuanlong was just guessing according to the law of the five elements.

　　The two of them were talking very happily. Before they knew it, the sun was setting and a day had passed. Li Qingfeng's cultivation level was such that he no longer needed to eat anything and would not feel hungry, and Yuanlong was even better. Li Qingfeng was afraid that Shangguan Rui'er and the others would be anxious, so he bowed to Yuanlong and said, "I will take my leave now. I will go to Chishui City with a few brothers for the next few days. I will come to visit Uncle Master after I finish my business in Chishui City." Yuanlong nodded slightly and stopped talking.

　　Li Qingfeng really rushed to the Mingxin Palace, only to see that Zhiyuan and Qingxuan had both come out of retreat. Qingxuan had reached the late Yuandan stage, while Zhiyuan had also reached the initial stage of Yuandan. Their intelligence and fighting spirit were the strongest, but it affected their cultivation and they had not yet come out of retreat.

　　Li Qingfeng released his spiritual sense and intelligence and was almost able to form a Yuandan, but the flow of his true energy was very slow and it was always almost unable to form a Yuandan. If he practiced on his own, even with the help of elixirs, it would still take two or three days to form a Yuandan.

　　Upon seeing this, Qingfeng Li mobilized the Qi in his body and transferred it from the Intelligence Spirit Platform to the Qi Sea. At the same time, he shouted, "Brother, be selfless and have no thoughts. Follow the flow and don't have any distracting thoughts."

　　The intelligent being was about to reach the initial stage of Yuan Dan formation. With the help of Li Qingfeng's extremely pure true energy, the Yuan Dan suddenly formed and slowly rotated inside the intelligent being. Seeing that the intelligent Yuan Dan had formed, Li Qingfeng slowly withdrew his hand and waited for the intelligent being to wake up.

　　After a while, Zhineng opened his eyes and shouted excitedly: "Haha, I finally formed a Yuandan, Junior Brother Qingfeng, thank you very much."

　　Li Qingfeng knew that although Zhineng had formed the Yuandan, it was rather reluctant, and he could not help but say: "Brother Zhineng, your mind is too persistent, and your desire to win is too strong, which is not good for your practice." Zhineng knew his own problem, but he did not know how to overcome it for the moment. He scratched his head embarrassedly and stopped talking.

　　Qingxuan suddenly asked: "Junior Brother Qingfeng, where is Shangguan Ruier? Why can't I see her?

　　Qingfeng Li said, "Rui'er is in Chishui City."

　　Seeing that Qingxuan was about to ask a question, Zhiyuan said, "Now that everyone's practice has improved a lot, how about we go explore the Chishui River?" Naturally, everyone agreed, and the four of them each flew towards Chishui City on their magic weapons.

　　Suddenly, a blue light flew out from the Chishui River and rushed up to the sky hundreds of feet high. It was extremely dazzling under the night sky. Then several more rays of light whizzed up. For a moment, many bright little spots circled over the Chishui River. Those little spots were exactly the light emitted by the magic weapons when the cultivators in the city saw the strange phenomenon in the Chishui River again and took out their magic weapons to observe.

　　The intelligent monster exclaimed: "Wow, it's so spectacular, that huge light must be emitted by Chi Tianshui Linglong, it's really amazing!"

　　The blue light that was hundreds of feet high was exactly emitted by Chi Tianshui Linglong, but this time the light was exceptionally high and bright. It seemed that the time for the Purple Cloud Star Array to activate was approaching. The cultivators who were observing and circling the Chishui River watched for a while, and seeing that there were no other abnormalities, they gradually stopped. Only a few sparse bright spots were still circling above the Chishui River. After a while, the cultivators saw that there was still no movement, so they landed one after another to find a place to meditate in peace.

　　Under the moonlight, the Chishui River is like a winding silver ribbon, bypassing the Chishui City and gradually extending into the distance. The water surface is smooth and calm, and there is nothing unusual to see, except for the many scattered wooden houses on the river bank, which are out of tune with the beautiful scenery.

　　The four intelligent people have lived in Lingyuan Mountain for a long time, especially Li Qingfeng, who has never been down from Lingyuan Peak for more than 20 years. Seeing this beautiful scenery, they couldn't help but sigh in admiration for the magic of the creation of heaven and earth.

　　At this moment, a clear female voice was heard next to me: "Hey, what are you doing?

　　Li Qingfeng was shocked. Although he was absorbed in observing the scenery, this person was able to approach him without warning. It seemed that his cultivation was not low. He followed the sound and saw a tall woman with delicate features standing five feet away from him and others. Her long black hair was draped behind her, gently swaying in the wind. Although she was slightly inferior to Shangguan Rui'er, she could still be considered a beauty. Li Qingfeng secretly used his spiritual sense to take a look. This female cultivator's cultivation had actually reached the Gathering Spirit Stage. No wonder she dared to travel alone at night.

　　Qingxuan stepped forward and said, "Hey, we didn't do anything, what's the matter, young lady?

　　The female cultivator snorted. Seeing that except for Qingxuan, Li Qingfeng and the others didn't care at all, she couldn't help but feel a little annoyed and said to Li Qingfeng, "Hey, didn't you guys hear it? Come here, I have something to ask you."

　　Li Qingfeng smiled coldly and said calmly: "It seems that I have no obligation to answer the girl's questions."

　　The female cultivator couldn't help but feel angry and annoyed, and was speechless for a moment. Wherever she went, people would come up to talk to her, and they would be happy for a long time just to say a word to her. Yet, this handsome boy who looked very young actually dared to talk back to her.

　　Li Qingfeng wanted to go into the river to investigate, but when he saw someone coming, he knew it might be inconvenient at this time, so he said to Zhiyuan, "Let's go."

　　Seeing that Li Qingfeng didn't seem to take her seriously at all, the female cultivator became even more angry. She actually took out a long black whip and hit Li Qingfeng. The black whip was about three meters long and was whistling towards Li Qingfeng with silver spots of light.

　　The female cultivator was so angry that she whipped out and several whip shadows pounced towards Li Qingfeng with bared fangs and claws.

　　Li Qingfeng had a slight thought, and a barrier like water ripples appeared. After the whip shadow hit the barrier formed by Baoqing armor, it only caused some ripples on the surface of the barrier. Instead, it bounced the black whip back, scaring the female cultivator.

　　The female cultivator had probably never seen this kind of defense before, and was stunned. She asked, "What is this?" The smart people also widened their eyes. It had only been a few days since they last saw Qingfeng Li, and he had become much more powerful. They knew they could not resist the true energy contained in the long whip, but they did not expect Qingfeng Li to resolve it so easily.

　　Li Qingfeng was not a stingy person, but seeing that the female cultivator was too unruly, he deliberately wanted to dampen her spirit. Now seeing her asking a question, he smiled and said, "Then tell me who you are first."

　　The female cultivator lowered her head and thought for a while, then said, "My name is Hua Nongying, and it's your turn to speak."

　　35. Volume 1: The Birth of Ten Thousand Demons - Chapter 35: Piaomiao Sect

　　Li Qingfeng laughed and said, "My name is Li Qingfeng, these three are my senior brothers, Zhiyuan, Zhineng and Qingxuan. I wonder what the young lady wanted to ask just now."

　　Hua Nongying said, "I wanted to ask you if you had been here all along. Did you see those rays of light coming out of the Chishui River? I didn't expect you to be so fierce and ignore me, so... so I hit you. Well, you won't be angry, will you? Hehe!" Hua Nongying pushed the responsibility onto Li Qingfeng instead.

　　Qingfeng Li smiled slightly, and without going into detail about who was right and who was wrong, he said, "We just got here, and you came."

　　Hua Nongying was a little disappointed and said, "I don't know what the light is from. Humph, if it weren't for that man in black just now, I would have been here a long time ago. I'm really pissed off."

　　Qingxuan couldn't help but ask: "The man in black? What does he look like?

　　Hua Nongying said, "He seems to be a member of the Demonic Cult. He has great power, but he seems to have been injured. Oh, and there is a strange demon head carved on the chest of his clothes. It's ugly."

　　"Someone from the Yin Yue Sect." Li Qingfeng and the others all thought that this person should be a member of the Yin Yue Sect. The clothes of the Yin Yue Sect members above the elder level were tattooed with devil heads, which seemed to be their identity symbol.

　　"People from Yin Yue Sect? How do you know they are from Yin Yue Sect?" Hua Nongying asked curiously.

　　Zhineng said: "We have fought with the Yinyue Sect before, so we know."

　　Li Qingfeng knew that even if the Yin Yue Sect was nearby, they would not dare to attack the cultivators easily. After all, there were many cultivators in Chishui City now, and the Yin Yue Sect would not dare to arouse public anger no matter how arrogant they were, so he asked, "Why did you fight?

　　Hua Nongying thought for a moment and said, "Maybe he wanted to steal my 'Shen Piao'. As soon as he saw me using my 'Shen Piao', he attacked me. Fortunately, my Shen Piao is very fast. When I saw that things were not going well, I flew to a crowded place, and he didn't catch up with me."

　　Hua Nongying took out a magic weapon and said, "This is Shenpiao, a unique magic weapon of our Piao Miao Sect. You can fly very fast with it." Only then did Li Qingfeng know that Hua Nongying was a disciple of Piao Miao Sect.

　　Li Qingfeng and the others only saw that the magic weapon was shaped like a phoenix, about two feet long, and light yellow in color. They couldn't see anything special about it.

　　Hua Nongying said, "Three days ago, my master and I got separated, so I came to Chishui City alone to wait for him. But after three days of waiting, they still hadn't arrived."

　　Li Qingfeng said: "In that case, then come with us to Chishui City first and stay with my friend, and then make plans." Hua Nongying nodded slightly to show her agreement.

　　The five people each controlled their magic weapon and flew towards Chishui City. Hua Nongying's magic weapon, Shenpiao, was glowing faintly and was flying easily in front of everyone. It seemed that she had not yet used her full speed. This Shenpiao was indeed extraordinary.

　　As soon as I entered Shangguan Qingyun's house, a sweet voice like a silver bell came: "Brother Li, you are back. I was worried about you."

　　Before Qingfeng Li could react, Shangguan Rui'er threw herself on him, and a pair of slender white jade hands wrapped around his neck. For a moment, he was filled with warmth and the unique body fragrance of a young girl wafted over his face. Her exquisite and curvy body pressed tightly against his chest. Qingfeng Li couldn't help but blush and was at a loss. He stood stiffly and shouted, "Rui'er, let go first, there are so many people."

　　Shangguan Ruier heard this and realized that Qingxuan and the others were staring at her intently. She quickly put down her hands. Her frosty face immediately flushed. She pouted and said unhappily, "Brother Li, aren't you going to be back soon? Why did you take so long?

　　A warm feeling flowed through Qingfeng Li's heart, and he smiled and said, "I encountered some problems, so I was delayed." Qingfeng Li told him what happened that day one by one.

　　Shangguan Rui'er tilted her head playfully and said with a sweet smile, "Humph, I'll follow you wherever you go next time. You've made me worry to death."

　　Li Qingfeng saw Hua Nongying looking at him with a smile in her beautiful eyes. He felt a little embarrassed and quickly changed the subject, saying, "Rui'er, come here, let me introduce you. This is the Hua Nongying I just mentioned."

　　Shangguan Rui'er looked at Hua Nongying with her beautiful eyes, then smiled and said, "Sister Hua, hello!"

　　Hua Nongying looked at Shangguan Rui'er with her beautiful eyes in amazement, thinking, "She's so pretty!" She smiled slightly and said, "Hello, Rui'er."

　　Qing Xuan looked at Hua Nongying, and then at Shangguan Rui'er. The two girls in front of him were dazzling, charming, and radiant. They made his eyes tremble. They were extraordinary beautiful, as if they were the result of the lifelong efforts of the Creator. If there was any difference, it was that Shangguan Rui'er's beauty was cheerful and lively, full of the youthful and lovely beauty of a girl, while Hua Nongying's beauty was mature, wild, and moving. Both kinds of beauty could make people intoxicated and crazy.

　　Li Qingfeng saw the spirit ape eating fruit nearby and looking at everyone in a strange manner. He couldn't help but feel angry and amused. This guy really knows how to enjoy himself. With a wave of his hand, the spirit ape fell into Li Qingfeng's arms like a black shadow.

　　As they were talking, the house suddenly began to shake. Li Qingfeng was startled and cried out, "Earthquake!"

　　Shangguan Qingyun also came out of the house at this time and shouted to the doormen: "Everyone stay calm and don't make a scene."

　　Shangguan Qingyun saw that Li Qingfeng had returned and said to everyone, "You stay here first. Master Li and I will go out and take a look."

　　Li Qingfeng and Shangguan Qingyun flew out of the house, and saw that as the shaking intensified, countless sword lights flew out of Chishui City, and hundreds of cultivators rushed into the air. The sky was full of magic weapons shining brightly, which was very spectacular. I saw the light rushing out of the Chishui River again, like a beam of light that lingered for a long time. After a while, the ground gradually returned to calm. "

　　Shangguan Qingyun and Li Qingfeng quickly flew over Chishui City, and seeing that the damage was not serious, they flew back home.

　　Shangguan Qingyun said: "It's not an earthquake. Let's go to the Chishui River to take a look."

　　It was late at night, and the Chishui River should have been deserted, but at this time, countless cultivators were hiding in the wild mountains and fields beside the Chishui River, and sword lights flashed in the sky from time to time. The area within a radius of dozens of miles around the Chishui River was full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers, with dangers lurking everywhere and murderous intentions lurking.

　　At this moment, the earth that had been shaking continuously gradually returned to calm, but the churning river still showed some signs. The trees on the shore trembled in the vibration, a large group of wild beasts ran around in the forest, and from time to time, a flock of night birds flew up from the forest and made croaking sounds. Apart from these, there seemed to be no other signs that could prove that the immortal weapon was about to be born.

　　Some cultivators were so impatient that they jumped into the water with their magic weapons to find the entrance to the Purple Cloud Star Formation. Although many cultivators had wanted to enter the Purple Cloud Star Formation for many years, they had not even found where it was, and gradually regarded it as a legend. But suddenly the legend came true, which was enough to drive most cultivators crazy.

　　After a while, the cultivators who entered the water came out one after another, and it seemed that they had not gained anything. However, many cultivators were not discouraged. Under the cover of night, many cultivators were quietly waiting for their chance.

　　36. Volume 1: The Birth of Ten Thousand Demons - Chapter 36: The Star Array Appears

　　In an inconspicuous corner, a man in black stood quietly in the night, his face looming in the black mist, and an overwhelming aura emanated from him, which made people feel chilled. Behind the man in black stood two people, one of whom was the ghost hall master of Yinyue Sect, Liefeng, and the other was a charming woman with a curvy and sexy figure.

　　"The time is almost up. I wonder if the old guy Beiyou is dead or not. Hahaha." The crisp voice of the man in black gave people a weird feeling.

　　"Master, you have come in person. So what even if Beiyou is still alive!" said the charming woman with a giggle. It turned out that the man in black was the Master of Yinyue Sect.

　　"Ye Mei, don't underestimate the Immortal Lord Beiyou. He is one of the four great immortals in the immortal world. His cultivation is not something we can resist. In the past, when the immortals and demons fought, I had just entered the path of magic and had seen Beiyou's skills. If he hadn't been injured, even if we attacked him now, we would not be his opponent." Yin Yue Sect Leader said seriously. Yin Yue Sect Leader couldn't help thinking: "If I can fully merge with the Great Flame Demon Beast, I may be able to fight against the Immortal Lord Beiyou. However, although the Great Flame Demon Beast is powerful, I can't control this power now. Oh, I really want to get that powerful power!"

　　Liefeng listened quietly to the conversation between the leader and Ye Mei. Standing in the night, he seemed to have merged into one with the night, not affected by any external things at all.

　　Ye Mei had seen the power of the leader before and felt that it was an unrivaled force. She did not expect that there was a force more powerful than the leader. An expression of disbelief appeared on her face.

　　Suddenly, the ground shook violently again, many whirlpools appeared on the water, and the temperature in the air dropped rapidly. The birds in the forest on the shore seemed to sense the strange atmosphere and flew away crying.

　　As the vibration intensified, countless sword lights flew out from the riverside forest. Ye Mei was surprised and said, "Wow, there are so many cultivators..."

　　Under the night sky, hundreds of cultivators' various magic weapons danced like golden snakes. Li Qingfeng and others were also among these many sword lights. Hua Nongying's divine floating was particularly conspicuous. She moved very quickly and was an extremely beautiful woman. She attracted many eyes for a while.

　　There were at least 1000 to 2000 cultivators in the sky. Many sects from Zhongzhou, Yunzhou, and Dapingzhou had come. Even from more distant places like Heishuizhou and Dongzhou, many cultivators had come. Some large sects had 100 to 200 people, while others had only 3 to 5 people. Gradually, many relatively independent groups were formed.

　　Hua Nongying asked in a low voice: "Wow, there are so many people, ah, who is that weird-looking guy?

　　Shangguan Qingyun said: "That's the Xuanying tribe of Dongzhou. They are natural warriors with great strength." Li Qingfeng and others looked and saw a very burly man standing about half a mile away from them. His fiery red hair was prominent, his skin was coarse and black, and he seemed to have great explosive power.

　　Li Qingfeng looked around and saw that Tianyun Temple, Faxiang Temple and other sects had sent people, but he didn't see anyone from the Pure Land Sect, which made him feel a little disappointed. Shangguan Rui'er had been paying attention to Li Qingfeng, and when she saw this, she gently pushed Li Qingfeng. Li Qingfeng knew that this was not the time to be in a daze, so he smiled at Rui'er and indicated that he was fine.

　　The Chishui River was gloomy at night, and the atmosphere became more eerie as the temperature dropped. Large tracts of primeval forest shivered in the cold wind, and the animals in the forest had already migrated away. In the silent forest, only the wind was howling. Suddenly, the earth shook again, and some old trees and dead branches could not withstand such violent shaking and fell down one after another. For a while, the forest was rumbling and smoke and dust were rising everywhere.

　　The rumbling sound became louder and louder, more and more urgent, like the sound of thousands of drums in the underworld beating at the same time, and all the cultivators in the air were frightened. In an instant, the earth seemed to twist, and the mountains jumped up and down with the violent vibrations. The smoke and dust rising from the ground covered the entire barren mountain.

　　As the water surface vibrated, many whirlpools gradually converged into a huge whirlpool, as if a demon opened its huge mouth and looked at everyone ferociously.

　　All the cultivators were staring at the huge whirlpool on the river, wondering if it was the entrance to the legendary Purple Cloud Star Array?

　　The Yinyue Sect Leader looked solemn and said, "I didn't expect that Beiyou was not dead and came up with this thing. What on earth is he going to do?" Liefeng and Ye Mei were standing aside, not knowing what the Sect Leader meant.

　　Ye Mei couldn't help but ask: "Master, are we still going in?

　　The Yin Yue Sect Leader pondered for a moment and said slowly: "Forget it, since Bei You is not dead yet, we won't gain any advantage even if we enter the formation. Let's go." After that, he turned into a black shadow and flew away. Seeing this, Lie Feng and Ye Mei followed.

　　The harsh environment did not seem to have any effect on the cultivators. Many cultivators speculated about the origin of the huge vortex. Some cultivators who were proud of their high cultivation levels even flew cautiously close to the vortex to observe it.

　　Zhineng asked, "Qingfeng, is the Purple Cloud Star Formation about to be activated?

　　Li Qingfeng said, "It looks like it will be over soon, but why do I have a very strange feeling, as if there is something familiar in it." As soon as the huge vortex was formed, Li Qingfeng felt a very strange and familiar feeling in his heart, but when he carefully experienced it, he gained nothing.

　　Shangguan Qingyun thought that Li Qingfeng was just nervous, so he didn't care about the feeling. He just looked nervously at the huge whirlpool in the river and the practitioners flying in the sky.

　　The cultivators who were close to the vortex tried to enter it, but the vortex seemed to be protected by an extremely gentle force, and they were bounced away as soon as they got close.

　　A hazy green light gradually covered the entire river surface along the whirlpool, and it seemed that the Purple Cloud Star Array had started to activate.

　　The violent shaking and rumbling stopped, and gradually, all the sounds disappeared, and the earth seemed to have suddenly died. It was terribly quiet, with only the huge dark whirlpool on the Chishui River staring at the numerous cultivators like the eyes of a god.

　　I saw a cultivator in a light green robe, who roared and shot the magic weapon in his hand towards the whirlpool. Seeing his attack, many cultivators were eager to try and prepared to attack with their magic weapons.

　　The hazy green light on the water surface flashed twice, and then sucked in the magic weapon in the green-clothed cultivator's hand. The green-clothed cultivator waved his hands several times, trying to call back his magic weapon, but there was no movement. It seemed that it had been sucked into the Purple Cloud Star Array.

　　Many cultivators who were originally preparing to take action became hesitant upon seeing this and dared not act rashly.

　　"I didn't expect the Purple Cloud Star Array to be so magical. Zuo Hu from the Three Saints Sect is also a master who has reached the Spirit Gathering Stage, but he can't even get back his own magic weapon." Shangguan Qingyun said in surprise.

　　37. Volume 1: The Birth of Ten Thousand Demons - Chapter 37: Dilemma

　　At this time, a cultivator who looked very young slowly flew over. His face was as flawless as jade, his body was slender, and he held a huge pure white sword in his hand. It seemed that he was also going to attack the whirlpool. Wasn't he afraid that his magic weapon would be sucked away by the Purple Cloud Star Array again?

　　"Ah, even the Sword Saint Jin Zhi, one of the Three Saints, is here. This is going to be interesting." The cultivators nearby began to talk about it. Many of them who did not know Jin Zhi also looked at Jin Zhi, the Sword Saint, one of the Three Saints of the Three Saints Sect.

　　Li Qingfeng secretly used his spiritual sense to take a look, but he did not expect to be discovered by Jin Zhi. His eyes were as fast as lightning and he looked towards Li Qingfeng. It seemed that the sword saint's cultivation was higher than Li Qingfeng's, otherwise he would not have been able to detect Li Qingfeng's spiritual sense. Li Qingfeng could not help but be secretly shocked. The sword saint Jin Zhi's cultivation seemed to have broken through the Yuanshen stage, but Li Qingfeng could not tell which level it was.

　　Jin Zhi glanced at Li Qingfeng and saw that he was with Sifang City Lord Shangguan Qingyun. He thought he was from Sifang City, so he ignored him. He held the giant sword in his hand and shouted "Open". A sword light with a diameter of two meters and a length of about ten feet was emitted from the sword and hit the surface of the Chishui River. With the ability to transform objects and strike directly from several feet away, he was indeed not afraid of the Purple Cloud Star Array taking away the magic weapon.

　　The hazy green light curtain actually began to twist under the strong pressure, and was gradually pressed down by the sword light.

　　Suddenly, there was a huge bang, and the green light suddenly rebounded, completely swallowing the sword light, and attacked Jin Zhi along the sword light.

　　Jin Zhi shouted "Long", and the giant sword instantly grew several times larger, turning into a long sword about ten feet long. Light shone on the sword body, flickering and moving non-stop. Gradually, the sword body of ten feet was covered in a ball of light. It seemed that the sword saint Jin Zhi was going to use all his strength. The people around him suddenly felt the pressure increase, and some of the people with lower cultivation retreated one after another. Li Qingfeng and others also felt the heavy momentum, and they all set up defenses in front of them.

　　The Purple Cloud Star Array was not affected by Jin Zhi's momentum at all. The hazy green light still followed the sword light of the Giant Spirit Sword and attacked Jin Zhi. It seemed that if Jin Zhi could not repel the cloud energy of the Purple Cloud Star Array, he would have to give up the sword. However, Jin Zhi was known as the Sword Saint and relied on this Giant Spirit Sword. How could he give it up easily?

　　Under the influence of Jin Zhi's true energy, the giant sword emitted a dazzling light, like a fire dragon tumbling in Jin Zhi's hand, with great momentum. Jin Zhi shouted "Go", and the giant sword in his hand turned into a golden fire dragon, flying towards the Ziyun Star Array with fangs and claws.

　　Qingyun and the golden dragon suddenly collided with each other, and there was a loud "bang". A huge airflow spread outward from the collision point. The cultivators who were closer to them resisted desperately under the powerful impact. Some cultivators could not resist and fell into the water. Li Qingfeng and others had set up defenses early, so they only felt a few vibrations and were not seriously injured.

　　The Sword Saint Jin Zhi was actually shocked by the Purple Cloud Star Array and retreated dozens of feet. His jade-like face turned blood red. He finally couldn't help but spit out blood. The disciples of the Three Saints Sect behind him hurried forward to support Jin Zhi. It seemed that he was seriously injured. Jin Zhi took out a pill from his arms and put it into his mouth, then flew away with his disciples, apparently to find a place to meditate and heal his wounds.

　　For a moment, the cultivators on the banks of the Chishui River were speechless. Most of them knew that their cultivation levels were not as good as Jin Zhi's, or even Zuo Hu of the Three Saints Sect's. Knowing that it was hopeless for them to enter the Purple Cloud Star Array, they were reluctant to leave and watched the Purple Cloud Star Array in the Chishui River from afar.

　　Li Qingfeng's heart was also greatly shocked. Jin Zhi's cultivation was obviously higher than his, but he couldn't even break through the first layer of defense outside the formation. It seemed that forcing his way in would definitely not work. Li Qingfeng couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

　　Zhinengben also wanted to go up and give it a try, but when he saw that even a master of the level of Sword Saint Jin Zhi was seriously injured, although he was reluctant, he had to wait and see.

　　Hua Nongying said, "How can this strange formation be so powerful? Why don't we all attack together? I don't believe we can't break it."

　　Qingxuan was also eager to try. Even if one person's skills were not enough, it should be possible if there were more people. He quickly said, "Okay, Senior Brother Zhiyuan, let's go together. It should be possible."

　　Zhiyuan saw that Li Qingfeng was in deep thought, and Shangguan Qingyun seemed to have noticed something, so he said, "Wait a minute."

　　Li Qingfeng's heart moved, he opened his eyes and said, "I have thought of a way, I don't know if it will work, Brother Zhiyuan, you guys stay here first, if I go in, you guys wait for me here, don't force your way in, otherwise it will be very dangerous!"

　　Shangguan Ruier quickly pulled Li Qingfeng and said, "Brother Li, no, it's too dangerous." Her eyes began to turn red as she spoke.

　　Shangguan Qingyun had an idea. Seeing Li Qingfeng's confident look, he knew that he was going to take a risk. But this was the only way now, so he said, "Rui'er, let Master Li go. You have to trust him."

　　Li Qingfeng gently hugged Shangguan Rui'er and said with a smile: "Rui'er, don't you believe in Brother Li? It will be fine. Okay, there are so many people here, don't cry, or people will laugh at you."

　　"Then you must be careful." Shangguan Rui'er knew that Li Qingfeng would definitely do what he decided to do, so she stopped trying to stop him and said with tears in her eyes.

　　Hua Nongying also showed concern on her face and said, "Little brat, be careful. I still want to challenge you."

　　Li Qingfeng laughed and flew towards the huge whirlpool in the Chishui River.

　　After flying for an unknown amount of time, Qingfeng Li began to feel that flying was becoming a bit tiring. Finally, he saw a group of purple clouds in front of him. He was surprised and delighted, as he finally saw something different from the surrounding space.

　　After flying for a long time, he came to the purple cloud. The cloud that seemed small from a distance was actually so big. The cloud was like a lot of thick cotton wool piled up, stretching across the sky and still flowing slowly. Li Qingfeng hesitated for a moment, and resolutely flew into the purple cloud.

　　There were rotating purple air masses in front and behind, and inside the purple cloud were actually countless purple air masses. Each purple air mass was of different sizes, with the small ones being only a few meters in diameter and the large ones being dozens of feet long.

　　Li Qingfeng carefully passed through the gaps in the air masses. The purple air masses gave people a very heavy feeling, as if they were made of a very dense substance, but they appeared in the form of clouds and mist. It was really a strange substance.

　　Li Qingfeng knew that there were things in the Purple Cloud Star Array that he did not understand, so it was better to be careful and not touch those air masses easily.

　　After walking forward for a while, a huge air mass appeared in front of them and they could no longer pass through. Li Qingfeng stretched out his hand and lightly touched the rotating purple air mass in front of him, and his body was swept into it.

　　The purple gas mass seemed to be composed of an extremely pure gas, and it was surprisingly rich in spiritual energy. Li Qingfeng's soul also clearly felt the spiritual energy here, and became active. It began to work on its own, mobilizing the true energy in the body to speed up its circulation, and eagerly absorbed the spiritual energy all around. Although it was not as fast as when Li Qingfeng used all his strength to absorb the true energy, it also maintained a good absorption speed.

　　38. Volume 1: The Birth of Ten Thousand Demons - Chapter 38: Entering the Formation

　　The pressure in the purple gas seemed to be even greater than before. Li Qingfeng's mind moved, and the Baoqing armor quickly deployed a light defense around the body, forcing the purple gas within a ten-foot range from Li Qingfeng to form a circular space.

　　Li Qingfeng continued to walk forward cautiously. In the core of the purple gas mass, there was actually an egg with a diameter of about one foot, like the egg of a huge strange bird. The white eggshell was densely printed with many purple dark patterns. It floated quietly in the air and rotated slowly.

　　He tried to collect it, but unexpectedly, the thing seemed to be inductively connected to the huge purple gas mass. The pressure around it suddenly increased, and the gas clouds around it quickly churned up, forming a huge flowing airflow that protected the white strange egg in the middle.

　　Li Qingfeng hurriedly used all his strength to activate the Baoqing armor, increasing the armor's protective power to the maximum. At this time, his soul seemed to sense something was wrong and no longer cared about absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy.

　　Li Qingfeng knew that the strange white egg must be the key to unlocking this place, but he couldn't think of a solution for the time being. The pressure generated by the rotating airflow was getting greater and greater, and the defense formed by the Baoqing armor was squeezed to a range of only about three feet away from Li Qingfeng. Li Qingfeng flew out along the airflow, and only after flying to the outer edge of the cloud did the airflow gradually calm down and return to its original state.

　　It seems that as long as he doesn't touch the strange white egg, nothing will happen. Li Qingfeng hesitated for a moment and decided to give up collecting the strange egg.

　　Li Qingfeng bypassed the strange egg and finally got out of the huge cloud of gas.

　　The scene in front of my eyes suddenly changed. There was a soft yellow halo all around. Nine giant pillars of different heights were arranged in the air. These pillars neither reached the sky nor the ground. They were just suspended in the air.

　　Li Qingfeng couldn't help but have a familiar feeling when he saw these nine pillars. The arrangement of the Nine Heavens Gathering Yuan Formation when he was practicing in Qingyun Cave seemed a bit similar, but upon closer inspection, there were differences.

　　The arrangement of the pillars is almost certainly a formation; as for what is inside, it cannot be seen from the outside.

　　There is a glowing magic weapon on top of the nine pillars, which is also hovering in the air very abruptly. Soft light is emitted from it, making the space extremely bright.

　　Li Qingfeng felt exhausted at this moment. When he took the strange white egg just now, he had consumed a lot of his true energy, and he was a little bit exhausted. Li Qingfeng checked and found that this place seemed to be relatively stable, so he sat cross-legged outside the nine pillars, took out a magic pill, and began to recover.

　　Li Qingfeng quickly recovered the huge amount of his consumed true energy. In this space with extremely rich spiritual energy, not only did his true energy recover quickly, but his skills also increased dramatically. He quickly crossed the fourth level of the unity of mind and body, and reached the fifth level of the Lingtian Heart Method, where his soul left the body.

　　He only felt that the soul in his body had completely merged with himself. It was a very wonderful feeling. Although it could not be seen from the outside, Li Qingfeng could actually feel every thought of the soul and how the soul circulated the true energy in the body.

　　Li Qingfeng stood up, and felt that the internal Qi was extremely abundant, his body was full of endless energy, his heart was full of confidence, and there was a faint joy in his heart. Every tiny change in the air flow in his body seemed to be in line with the way of heaven, and his skills increased rapidly without him noticing.

　　This time, Qingfeng Li was no longer in a hurry to enter the large formation of pillars. He flew around the pillars outside the formation and observed for a long time. He had some understanding in his heart, but it was also an indescribable feeling, as if there were still some key things he had not mastered.

　　The inside of the formation seemed to be completely isolated from the outside. Although he could feel every flow of Qi outside the formation, he could not feel any information inside the formation. Moreover, this should be the core of the Purple Cloud Star Formation. The real secret should be in this formation. Li Qingfeng pondered for a while, but still could not grasp the key points, so he stopped thinking and walked into the formation.

　　It turned out that the formation formed by the arrangement of pillars was the core of the Purple Cloud Star Formation. As soon as Li Qingfeng entered the formation, the formation was activated.

　　Nine pillars of different sizes and heights suddenly moved. Li Qingfeng felt the scene before his eyes change and the pillars disappeared. It was as if he had come to an endless starry sky. The stars in front of him were so close to him that he could pick them with his hands. The black night sky was decorated with richness and color. The position of each star seemed to coincide with the changes in the formation, faintly forming a formation. Li Qingfeng hurriedly used his divine sense to memorize the arrangement of the stars in the sky.

　　Suddenly, the scenery in front of him changed, and he came to a place with beautiful mountains and rivers. A trickle of water flowed slowly from the top of a small mountain. There were many rare and exotic animals by the stream. A huge phoenix was strolling on the grass in the distance, its whole body covered in a golden flame. The phoenix was seen gently combing its feathers with an elegant posture. The exotic animals around it made way one after another, and Li Qingfeng could not help but be amazed.

　　A cute four-eared white rabbit ran to Li Qingfeng's side, raised its little head and looked at Li Qingfeng, the uninvited guest, curiously. Next to it, a nine-headed monster snake with a green body quietly crawled towards the white rabbit, and one of its heads quickly bit the little white rabbit. The little white rabbit seemed to be unaware of it and continued to eat grass with its head down.

　　Li Qingfeng couldn't bear it, so he lifted up the white rabbit with his true energy and sent it behind him. The nine-headed monster snake seemed unwilling to let the food in its mouth run away. It stuck out its tongue and stared at Li Qingfeng with red eyes as big as fists.

　　Li Qingfeng did not dare to be careless. With a wave of his hand, the Baoqing armor formed a defense to protect his whole body.

　　The nine-headed monster snake was green in color, with dense scales all over its body. On its nine thin necks hung a huge triangular head, and each head kept stretching and retracting, looking very flexible. The nine-headed monster snake opened its mouth and a ball of black air attacked Li Qingfeng, who summoned the Lantern Sword to meet it.

　　With a loud noise, Li Qingfeng was actually knocked back several feet, but the nine-headed monster snake had no reaction. Its nine heads stretched and retracted, and one opened its huge mouth and bit Li Qingfeng ferociously. Li Qingfeng saw that this was not good, and quickly flew into the sky. The nine-headed monster snake was obviously not prepared, and it made strange noises in its mouth, showing that it was extremely angry. The snake opened its mouth and another ball of black air hit Li Qingfeng.

　　The strange beasts around seemed to be very afraid of the nine-headed monster snake and fled in all directions. Only the phoenix was still leisurely combing its hair in the distance. Li Qingfeng had an idea and flew towards the phoenix. The monster snake saw Li Qingfeng flying away and refused to give up, so it quickly chased after him.

　　When the phoenix saw the nine-headed monster snake running into its territory, it seemed very angry. It opened its mouth and let out a clear phoenix cry. Flames ignited on its body, and it spread its wings and flew into the air, threatening the nine-headed monster snake.

　　The nine-headed monster snake hesitated for a moment, but when it saw Li Qingfeng in the distance, its eyes became fierce again and it pounced on Li Qingfeng. Seeing that the monster snake dared to ignore it, Phoenix swooped down and attacked the nine-headed monster snake with its sharp beak and huge claws. The nine-headed monster snake was caught off guard and a deep wound was scratched on its body, and green liquid flowed out.

　　The nine-headed monster snake was furious. Its nine heads shook back and forth, and black poisonous gas kept spewing out of its mouth, fighting back with all its might.

　　The phoenix and the giant snake fought each other until the sky was dark and the wind and clouds changed color. All the giant trees and flowers within a few miles were destroyed.

　　39. Volume 1: The Birth of Ten Thousand Demons - Chapter 39: Hidden Demonic Beasts

　　Li Qingfeng saw the opportunity of the phoenix and the strange snake fighting, and carefully observed the surrounding environment. Suddenly, he saw an independent small house located a hundred feet away. There were many exotic flowers and plants planted in front of the house. It looked like a fairyland. He couldn't help but walk towards the fairyland.

　　At this point in the fight, the powerful nine-headed monster snake was already covered in wounds. On its huge body, huge wounds were clearly visible, and dark green blood kept flowing out, dyeing the soil and flowers under it dark green. A beast like it was originally as hard as stone, and only the sharp claws and beaks of a phoenix could hurt it.

　　Although the nine-headed monster snake was seriously injured, Phoenix itself was not in a good condition. The feathers that were originally as bright and beautiful as the phoenix were bitten by the nine-headed monster snake several times during the fight with the nine-headed monster snake. Many of them fell off, and the flames on its body also faded a lot. There were also several wounds on its abdomen, deep enough to see the bones, and blood gushed out, dyeing the area near its chest red.

　　Li Qingfeng entered the hut, only to see that it was divided into two rooms. There was a chessboard and a zither in the outer room. Li Qingfeng couldn't help but take a look, and felt that the chess was surprisingly familiar, but couldn't remember it for a moment, so he walked inside. There was only a jade woven mat in the room, and a middle-aged man was sitting on the mat with his eyes closed. Li Qingfeng couldn't help but use a little spiritual sense to take a look, and the person in front of him seemed to have entered a state of spiritual silence, and could not sense the situation in the outside world at all.

　　The Phoenix snake kept tumbling and fighting, and was actually getting closer and closer to the cottage. The flowers and plants in front of the fairy residence were also destroyed. Li Qingfeng couldn't help but get very anxious. No matter which of the two strange beasts it was, it could tear down the cottage with a light wave. However, the middle-aged man in the house seemed to be completely isolated from the outside world and was not aware of the deafening noise happening outside the house.

　　The fight between the Phoenix and the monster snake had reached a life-and-death moment. The Phoenix struck hard and blinded one of the nine-headed monster snake's eyes, but it couldn't dodge in time and was hit by the monster snake's black gas. A big hole was immediately made in its abdomen and blood was flowing out.

　　The phoenix was furious, and with a clear cry, it flapped its wings and took off again.

　　The phoenix screamed sharply, flew into the air, and suddenly rushed down. Its sharp beak shot towards the nine-headed monster snake like a huge arrow.

　　In an instant, the sky and the earth changed color, the wind and clouds changed, and it seemed that a ball of fire was rushing towards the nine-headed monster snake.

　　The nine-headed monster snake roared loudly, and its huge eyes suddenly shot out endless murderous light and ferocious look, and its tail rushed towards the phoenix like a giant whip.

　　"boom!"

　　In an instant, sand and rocks flew, dust soared, and the sound of tearing echoed through the world. Finally, after a loud bang, the hut collapsed under the impact of the powerful energy. Li Qingfeng used all his strength to set up a defense, barely protecting the middle-aged man behind him.

　　The Phoenix seemed to be seriously injured by this heavy blow. The flames on its body gradually went out and its wings flapped weakly. The nine-headed monster snake didn't care about the Phoenix's life or death. It looked at Li Qingfeng fiercely and slowly crawled towards Li Qingfeng.

　　Li Qingfeng knew that if he flew away, the nine-headed monster snake could not fly and would not be able to catch up with him, but the mysterious middle-aged man behind him would not be able to escape death. It seemed that he had no choice but to fight with all his strength.

　　The nine-headed monster snake roared, its nine heads stretching and retracting, and bursts of black gas spewed out from its huge mouth from time to time, which made people want to vomit. Under the powerful momentum pressure emitted by the nine-headed monster snake, Li Qingfeng suddenly felt something in his heart. The star array that he had just entered the array brightened in his mind, and he couldn't help but realize that the key to breaking through the chess game outside the illusion was.

　　After careful observation, Li Qingfeng had some ideas in his mind. After filling in that place with the chess piece, he saw the scene in front of him gradually disappear like a water shadow. Nine pillars were suspended in the air and gently rotated. In the middle sat a middle-aged man, who was exactly the same as the man in the illusion just now. He was about seven feet tall, with his eyes closed, and his body was covered with black air. Only a faint trace of white light remained on his chest.

　　A voice suddenly rang out in Qingfeng Li's mind: "Haha! Young man, good job, you're finally here. I thought you couldn't come."

　　Qingfeng Li was startled. He saw that the person in front of him still had his eyes closed and was motionless. He was very surprised and asked, "Who are you?

　　The voice in my heart continued, "I am right in front of you. I am communicating with you through my soul."

　　Li Qingfeng couldn't help but ask: "Who are you? Why are you here?

　　The voice said, "I am the Immortal Lord Beiyou from the Immortal Realm. I was severely injured by the Demon God from the Demon Realm and have been tortured by his hidden demon beast for a full 1,800 years."

　　Suddenly the voice was interrupted, and a magical beast gradually emerged from the middle-aged man who was sitting upright. The magical beast looked like a giant rat, with golden eyes and dark red hair all over its body. It lay on the back of Beiyou Immortal Lord, grasping his back tightly with its claws, and looked around as if it had sensed something.

　　Li Qingfeng couldn't help but think to himself: "I didn't expect this little Dark Demon Beast to be so powerful. It made the immortal kings in the fairy world so embarrassed, but I don't know how I can save them." In fact, if the Great Demon God had not seriously injured the Immortal King Beiyou before, although the Dark Demon Beast was powerful, it would not be able to easily approach the Immortal King Beiyou and devour his immortal spirit.

　　"Well, let's try the Demon Suppressing Tower. It should be useful against things from the demon world." Li Qingfeng thought of the Demon Suppressing Tower and recited the incantation. The Demon Suppressing Tower emitted a soft beam of light that covered the hidden demon beast on Immortal Lord Beiyou's body.

　　When the Dark Demon Beast saw the Buddha's light, it let out a huge roar "Oh". It didn't expect that such a small body could make such a loud sound. It seems that the Dark Demon Beast is also afraid of the Demon Suppressing Tower. After all, the Demon Suppressing Tower is naturally the nemesis of the demons in the demon world. Under the Demon Suppressing Tower, the Dark Demon Beast has nowhere to hide, and it ran around in a hurry, but it could not escape the light column.

　　Li Qingfeng shouted "Collect", and the Demon-Suppressing Tower generated a powerful suction force, but the Dark Demon Beast resisted with all its might, and the Demon-Suppressing Tower could only trap it, but could not take the Dark Demon Beast into the tower.

　　Thanks to Li Qingfeng's breakthrough in the formation, his cultivation level increased greatly, and his control over the Demon Suppressing Tower was also greatly strengthened. All the magic power in his body surged out, and the Demon Suppressing Tower was replenished with magic power, and its power increased greatly. Suddenly, the suction force turned into a golden symbol, which was imprinted towards the hidden monster.

　　There was a flash of golden light, and the hidden monster could no longer resist and was sucked in by the demon-suppressing beast.

　　As soon as the dark monster left Immortal Lord Beiyou, the black energy on his body quickly dissipated with the help of the Buddha's light, and gradually a faint white light began to emanate from his body.

　　Immortal Lord Beiyou gradually recovered and slowly opened his eyes. Seeing that the Dark Demon Beast was still fleeing in the Buddha's light, he pointed with his left hand. A white light flew out from his body and trapped the Dark Demon Beast in the white light circle. The Dark Demon Beast screamed immediately, but could not move at all.

　　40. Volume 1: The Birth of Ten Thousand Demons - Chapter 40: Secret Stories of Immortals and Demons

　　Beiyou Xianjun said: "You have tortured me for so many years and almost destroyed me physically and spiritually. You are so hateful."

　　With a wave of his hands, the white light exploded, and the Dark Demon Beast was blown to pieces. It seemed that Immortal Lord Beiyou really hated this Dark Demon Beast.

　　Beiyou Immortal Lord smiled slightly and said, "I didn't expect that the one who saved me was actually a Buddhist practitioner. What's your name?

　　Li Qingfeng smiled and said, "I am Li Qingfeng, I wonder if you are the Immortal Lord Beiyou?

　　Beiyou Immortal Lord said: "Beiyou Immortal Lord, yes, that's right, I am Beiyou Immortal Lord Wu Yuanxing."

　　Li Qingfeng saw that after Immortal Lord Beiyou killed the Dark Demon Beast, he seemed to be fine, and asked, "Why didn't Immortal Lord get rid of the Dark Demon Beast earlier?

　　Beiyou Immortal Lord sighed and said, "I was seriously injured by the Great Demon God Sang Wen before, so the Dark Demon Beast is lurking in my body. I am no longer able to remove it. Now my power is only one tenth of what it used to be. I am afraid I will no longer be able to return to the Immortal Realm."

　　Li Qingfeng couldn't help but be secretly surprised, "He is so powerful with only one tenth of his previous power. The power of the Immortal Lord is too powerful!" He couldn't help but ask, "Is there no way to recover?

　　Beiyou Immortal Lord glanced at Li Qingfeng and said, "Yes, but it is very difficult. Besides, I only have two of the Five Elements Cauldrons now. I have to find the other three and combine them into a Five Elements Cauldron. Then I have to find a few extremely rare things. It's too difficult."

　　"Five Elements Cauldron, you said you have two cauldrons now, are they the Fire Heart Cauldron and the Earth Condensation Cauldron?" Li Qingfeng asked.

　　"It's these two tripods. Have you heard of the Five Elements Tripod? Beiyou Immortal Lord was also a little surprised. After he was seriously injured, his power declined a lot, and his state of mind was also greatly affected.

　　Li Qingfeng couldn't help but be overjoyed and said, "Great, it turns out that the Fire Heart Cauldron and the Earth Condensation Cauldron are with you, and the Wumu Cauldron, the Jin Ou Cauldron, and the Shuiyun Cauldron are from my master's sect. We can take them and put them together to form the Five Elements Cauldron."

　　Immortal Lord Beiyou was overjoyed to know that he had hope of recovering his previous skills. He felt that he was unable to do anything now, and this feeling was really uncomfortable.

　　Qingfeng Li felt a familiar feeling again. Beiyou Xianjun seemed to see through his thoughts. He waved his hand and a magic weapon shining with golden light slowly flew towards Qingfeng Li. Beiyou Xianjun asked, "What is your relationship with Lingyin Xianren? Why does his magic weapon have such a strong effect on you?"

　　Li Qingfeng couldn't help but wonder, "Who is Lingyin Immortal? I have never heard of him."

　　Beiyou Immortal Lord said: "By the way, before becoming an immortal, Lingyin Immortal practiced in Tianyun Temple and was called Master Tianhui. Did you know that?

　　"Tianyun Temple, Tianbao Heart Sutra, um, Lingyin Immortal must also practice Tianbao Heart Sutra. This magic weapon senses the true energy of Tianbao Heart Sutra in my body. No wonder I always have a familiar feeling in my heart. What about Lingyin Immortal? Li Qingfeng figured it out and asked.

　　"Lingyin Immortal and I went to the Demon Realm to gather information. We were trapped by the Great Demon God Sang Wen of the Demon Realm. I was the only one who escaped at the risk of my life, but I was also seriously injured. In addition, the Dark Demon Beast lurked in my body and sucked my soul. I almost lost my immortal body. At that time, several demons from the Demon Realm were also chasing me. So I set up the Purple Cloud Star Formation in this Chishui River and entered a state of extinction here to heal my injuries."

　　There was actually a trace of helplessness on the face of Immortal Lord Beiyou. He didn't know what to feel for a moment as an immortal king from the fairy world, who was his cousin, would be saved by someone from the world of cultivation.

　　"Ah! The Lingyin Immortal is dead." Li Qingfeng didn't know how to describe the death of the immortal, because in his imagination, after becoming an immortal, there would be no death and reincarnation.

　　"In fact, it was even more cruel than death. The eight immortals were beaten to pieces, and not even a trace of their immortal spirit was left." Immortal Lord Beiyou explained.

　　"This immortal weapon is called the Ruyi Plate. Since it is meant for you, you should accept it. This is the Jade Pupil Tablet for cultivation."

　　Immortal Lord Beiyou waved his hand lightly, and the Ruyi Plate and Yutong Jian flew in front of Li Qingfeng and stopped in the air.

　　The Ruyi disk was only about a foot in diameter, like a round disk, but with many protruding small thorns on its surface, which were golden in color. As soon as Li Qingfeng touched it lightly with his hand, the Ruyi disk quickly drilled into Li Qingfeng's body. Beiyou Immortal Lord reminded him, "The immortal weapon has automatically recognized its master. Hurry up and practice according to the Jade Pupil Scripture. I will help you."

　　Li Qingfeng quickly began to read the contents of the Jade Pupil Tablet, and saw that the method of cultivating the immortal weapon was actually very simple. As long as the immortal weapon recognized its master, he could use his own true energy to fuse with the immortal weapon.

　　Li Qingfeng immersed his mind into his soul, and saw the Ruyi Disk stopped in his body, spinning non-stop at his Qi Sea. He then sent out a stream of Qi to hit the Ruyi Disk, and the Ruyi Disk immediately began to spin rapidly, absorbing Li Qingfeng's Qi quickly. Two-thirds of the Qi in his Qi Sea was sucked away in an instant, and the Ruyi Disk did not slow down the absorption speed at all.

　　Upon seeing this, Immortal Lord Beiyou raised his hand and injected a stream of immortal energy into Li Qingfeng's body. The Ruyi Disk slowly stopped and gradually merged with Li Qingfeng's true energy.

　　Immortal Lord Beiyou withdrew his hand, his face flushed red. He knew that he was still seriously injured and had just used the immortal energy, which was a bit too much for him. He quickly sat down to practice.

　　Li Qingfeng benefited greatly this time. Not only did he successfully practice the immortal weapon Ruyi Disk, but he also had some immortal spirit injected into his body by Immortal Lord Beiyou, which would be of great help to his future practice.

　　After a whole week, Qingfeng Li finally mastered the Ruyi Disk and took it into his Yuanshen. After the meditation, the inner Qi of Immortal Lord Beiyou also recovered a little.

　　When Beiyou Xianjun saw Li Qingfeng wake up from his meditation, he handed him a jade tablet and said, "This records the arrangement of the Purple Cloud Star Array. It will be helpful to you."

　　Although Li Qingfeng had seen the arrangement of the star array in the illusion of the Purple Cloud Star Array, he still had no idea about the rules and tricks of the arrangement. He just relied on his divine sense to memorize it and could not use it. Now that he has obtained the arrangement of the star array, it means that Li Qingfeng can also set up the unique fairy array of Beiyou Xianjun, the Purple Cloud Star Array. However, his skills are far inferior to that of Beiyou Xianjun, and the power of the fairy array is much smaller.

　　Li Qingfeng couldn't help but be overjoyed and said, "Thank you, Immortal Lord." He remembered the white strange egg in the purple gas when he entered the Purple Cloud Star Array, and couldn't help but ask, "Immortal Lord, were all the things I saw when I entered the array an illusion?

　　Beiyou Immortal Lord smiled slightly and said, "The Purple Cloud Star Array I set up is divided into an outer array and an inner array. The outer array is not an illusion. The illusion in the inner array is just to test the mind and character of the person entering the array. If the mind is slightly poor, then the arrangement of the mind array cannot be fully memorized. If the character is not good, then the person in the array will not be able to break the illusion and come here."

　　Beiyou Immortal Lord paused for a moment and continued, "I placed the Purple Cloud Star Array in one of my immortal artifacts, the Chitian Shui Linglong. We are now in the Chitian Shui Linglong, and the Chitian Shui Linglong is consistent with my thoughts, so that illusion will appear."

　　"We are in Chitian Shuilinglong? Could it be that Chitian Shuilinglong is so huge? Li Qingfeng remembered that he had flown for a long time before getting here, and he couldn't help but be surprised.

　　41. Volume 1: The Birth of Ten Thousand Demons - Chapter 40: Secrets of Immortals and Demons
