The Ascension of the Evil Path: Starting from Refining Gu

Chapter 173 Mirror Lake
After getting rid of Ouyang Changhai of the Huxian Sect, Yu Yingzi did not give up.

The chariot flew past, and the woman turned to clean up other lunatics hiding in the city.

With the Qintian Supervisor Shao Si personally taking action, other officials felt relieved.

For most of the next day, the government began to gather manpower and recruited many wild cultivators.

Of course, these wild cultivators all took advantage of the government's call to enjoy the shade under the big trees, so that they could go to Jinghu Lake to find bargains.

……

At this time, on the wild road not far from Jinghu Lake.

Two demon-blooded horses galloped on the mud. In front of the two horses, a masked figure walked quickly to clear the way.

"Puff, puff..." Two more "Shui Jing Zhenren" were punched through the chest.

The closer we get to Jinghu Lake, the more crazy people are on the road, and many of them are rushing back after collecting blood essence.

On the horse, the tall young man had no scruples and drove the Gu insects to cover the two corpses and swallow up all the blood essence collected from the corpses.

There was a continuous sound of "crack", and the Gu insects even gnawed at the heart of the corpse.

On the side, on the back of another horse, the woman in red looked away, disgust flashing in her eyes.

Although there are many Gu masters who use people to raise Gu, most of them just take the essence and blood, and rarely even take away the internal organs.

The Gu worms raised by the Gu master in the body are like a part of themselves and can be fed back by the Gu worms.

In this way, the voodoo gnawing at other people's internal organs is actually the same as jumping up to gnaw at others.

"Junior sister Lu, not far ahead is Jinghu Lake. I didn't expect there to be such a beautiful scenery in Yao Ze." The tall young man is Meng Xinghun.

At this time, he did not use the "Red Moo" Gu. He had a handsome face and a smile. Judging from his appearance alone, he was considered a good companion candidate.

"Senior Brother Meng is saying that we don't know the specific situation of Jing Lake yet. Let's go there first." Lu Yao forced a smile and turned her gaze forward.

The area they were in was actually the outer boundary of Yao Ze.

Less than three miles ahead, further ahead, a large blank appeared in the swamp forest, and a large mist-shrouded lake was embedded in the earth.

Looking from afar, the lake covers an area of ​​at least twenty miles, and at a glance it is about thirty miles.

Under the sunset, the water and sky are the same color, as if the sky and the earth are white, without a trace of flaw.

The "mirror" is like a canvas, reflecting the cloudy sky. If you don't look at the crazy things that ruin the scenery, you really are in an ethereal and beautiful place.

A man and a woman rode away. When they actually entered the area of ​​Jinghu Lake, the scene changed again, and the sky suddenly became much darker.

The two of them suddenly felt something was wrong, and turned around to look back. The path they had taken was unclear.

On the surface of Jinghu Lake in front of him, there were actually many more figures. Those people were walking on the water as if they were walking on flat ground.

Meng Xinghun looked surprised and sighed: "So that's it. The entire Mirror Lake is an illusion. The real lake is definitely not thirty miles away. This place should still be mud."

He and Lu Yao fought against those lunatics in Ningyang County, and were even trapped in an illusion by one of the Gu techniques.

Not surprisingly, the illusion of Mirror Lake is similar, but the scope is much larger. It cannot be created in one day, and it is definitely not the result of a mere second-grade exotic Gu.

Lu Yao dismounted and tried to step onto the lake. Her body did not sink, and she felt down to earth.

She tried to take a few steps on the lake. There was no water under her feet, but there were ripples in circles.

Looking around at the other figures around, the specific positions of those people cannot be estimated because they are in an illusion. To the naked eye, they seem to be separated by mist, and most of them are far away from them.

Some lunatics appear out of thin air, and some disappear out of thin air.

Just now, I couldn't see clearly outside Jing Lake. Now it seems that those "Shui Jing Zhenren" have no fixed place to go in and out, as if someone is guiding them.

"It seems that in order to get the benefits, you need to find an entrance and go under the Mirror Lake." Meng Xinghun also got off his horse, and the nightmare Gu insect in his body screamed.

The third-grade medicine slave behind him ducked to a softer spot on his side and stepped down several times. The "lake water" rolled under his feet, and the depression was as deep as two feet.

The next moment, the surrounding "lake water" gathered together, covering Yao Slave.

"Bang, bang bang..." Lu Yao felt her feet shaking continuously, and the medicine slave didn't know how deep he had descended.

After a while, when Yao Slave emerged from the lake again, he was covered in mud.

Meng Xinghun shook his head and explained: "This place is indeed mud, and the same is true for ten feet down. We still need to find an entrance into the Mirror Lake like those lunatics."

"Senior Brother Meng, look at the half-demon over there, they should be members of the Scarlet Moon Sect, and those bloody bats in the sky are probably also from the Scarlet Moon Sect." Lu Yao pointed to a certain direction in the distance.

Meng Xinghun raised his eyes and looked up. There were many blood bats flying, all with four wings.

"Those lunatics have someone to guide them, and it's hard for us to follow them. Let's go, follow the followers of the Red Moon Sect, and see where they are gathering."

After the words fell, Meng Xinghun's figure grew taller, and his skin turned red. He accelerated his movements with brute force and followed quickly.

Lu Yao was much more agile, and her weapon Gu was as smooth as a mirror, carrying her gliding on the lake.

They didn't know how big Jinghu Lake was, and when they were here, they didn't know if they were going straight.

Just like yesterday when I fought with those lunatics and was trapped in a ruined house, if I couldn't see through the illusion, I would have to go around dozens of steps for a long time.

The two of them felt that the sky was getting dark, and they followed them all the way, but they didn't see the half-demon from the Red Moon Sect coming down.

However, they found a lot of spirits along the way, most of them gathered in one place. They didn't know whether they had discovered a passage or were forcing their way out.

Due to the number and size of those spirits, Meng Xinghun did not dare to step forward even with a third-grade medicine slave nearby.

"The Mirror Lake was born, and even the spirits were attracted."

"The medicinal materials flowing out of Jinghu Lake are all for the benefit of Gu Masters. Could it be that the spirits are here for the blood essence collected by those lunatics?"

While he was wondering, where a group of white birds gathered on the left side, a large area of ​​​​the lake surface was opened.

At a glance, it looks like a blue lens being pried out of the lake.

The leading white bird breathed demonic fire from its mouth, burning the tens of feet of lens, and the lens became smaller and smaller visibly to the naked eye, and finally turned into a water-like object about a foot long, which was swallowed by the white bird in one gulp.

Looking at another place where the spirits gather, there are toads squatting in a circle, also disturbing the lake surface.

"The entire Jinghu Lake has become a treasure, which is equivalent to a set of Taoist magic weapons. Among them, there are three leaders who are refining part of the Jinghu Lake." Meng Xinghun's eyes flashed with greed.

The water-like object looks like a piece of insect skin, and it has become a magic weapon that can perform illusions.

It's just that he himself is not a Taoist cultivator, he doesn't have the ability to refine treasures with real fire, he doesn't have demon fire like demon cultivators, and he doesn't have the means to determine the specific location of the insect skin.

Feeling a pity in his heart, Meng Xinghun was about to continue on his way when he suddenly noticed that Lu Yao had a strange look on her face, and her eyes were fixed on something in front of her to the right.

"Junior sister Lu?" Meng Xinghun followed Lu Yao's line of sight.

Deep in the hazy mist over there, a group of four figures walked slowly on the lake, also following the Chiyue Sect Half-demon.

Not far behind the four people, there was another half-demon from the Scarlet Moon Sect. The girl was wearing a blood bat robe and was supposed to be a disciple of the Scarlet Moon Sect.Among the four people walking in front, the leader was a red-haired young man. Based on Meng Xinghun's experience, it was not difficult to tell that the other person had the strange "fire-eating" Gu.

"This kid has become a second-generation Gu Master at a young age. It doesn't seem like he only has one kind of strange Gu. The one on his arm is... a compound eye."

"Shi Huo, Yan Tong! Junior Sister Lu, he, is he Liu Fengcheng?" Meng Xinghun looked at it, and his expression turned gloomy.

When he looked sideways at Lu Yao, the woman's eyes were red, her red lips were trembling, and there was an inexplicable meaning in her eyes of hatred.

For the same young Gu Master, there could be someone else who could have these two kinds of strange Gu by coincidence, but Lu Yao's eyes were unmistakable, that person must be Liu Feng.

"Liu Feng."

With a hysterical scream, Lu Yao actually dropped Meng Xinghun and slid away quickly while stepping on the soldier Gu.

Seeing this, Meng Xinghun's face twitched, and the joints between his fists cracked.

"Humph, you're a rotten piece of shit who's not well-raised."

Meng Xinghun cursed in a low voice, this woman was able to hatch spiritual Gu and be reborn as a second child, all thanks to the betrothal gift he gave her.

But this bitch was ungrateful and immediately pounced on the bastard who slept with her.

"It's okay if I haven't met you. Since I, the young sect master, have met you, I must let you taste the feeling of life being worse than death."

Meng Xing's soul was filled with anger, and under the influence of the "Red Moo" strange Gu, he became murderous.

He jumped up and sat on the medicine slave's shoulder, and the third-grade medicine slave carried him. He quickly caught up with Lu Yao and rushed towards the red-haired young man together.

……

It was already night, and there was silence in the Yaoze, with screams coming from the back and side.

The scream was like the roar of a fierce ghost, filled with hatred and extremely harsh.

The four people walking on the lake could naturally hear it. Except for Liu Luo, who looked confused, the other three people all turned to look.

The two sides are also in an illusion. Although they can see each other, it is not possible to really collide in a short time.

"Master, that woman is calling you!" Qiao Bei reminded in a low voice.

She and Huiyuan followed Liu Feng after Liu Feng left Worm Valley, and were unaware of Liu Feng's entanglement with Lu Yao.

But it is not difficult to tell that the woman in red must be acquaintance of the big boss. Looking at her bitter and resentful face, one can tell that she is an abandoned woman, and one does not know what cruelty the big boss has done to her.

The sarcoma on Liu Feng's head was agitated. With Zhen Shanren's level, he had no interest in the two juniors chasing after him.

"Fellow Taoist, you'd better hurry up and find the entrance. They're just two grasshoppers. Don't pay attention to them." Zhen Shanren's voice came from the sarcoid.

Having had the experience of dealing with Liu Feng twice, he not only did not despise Liu Feng, but also took him seriously.

In his opinion, these two grasshoppers just brought along a third-level medicine slave. Even if he didn't help, Liu Feng could handle it by himself.

Looking at the red-skinned junior's aura of killing someone, if he really charged over, he would definitely kill him.

"The juniors will all obey Senior Zhen's arrangements. The seniors are in a hurry, so I'll let them go for the time being."

Liu Feng's face was expressionless and his tone was calm, as if he wanted to take the lives of those two people just by doing something as simple as eating and drinking water.

He was worried about Lu Huai in Bug Valley and spared Lu Yao's life.

Unexpectedly, this woman didn't know how to live or die. She came to die on her own and even brought a concubine with her.

Old ghost Lu Huai is not here. He will get rid of Lu Yao here today without any scruples.

Turning his head and turning his gaze, Liu Feng locked his eyes on the person from the Scarlet Moon Sect in front of him again. Liu Feng was afraid that Zhen Shanren would see his true nature and that he was deliberately taking a detour.

In fact, the entire illusion of Mirror Lake was like a bubble in his eyes, and he could see through it at a glance.

The lake is long and narrow, about thirty miles in length to the naked eye, but in reality it is less than three miles. They are still spinning in the mud.

In other people's eyes, there are spirits scattered everywhere, including a two-headed snake spirit, a big white-feathered bird that looks like an egret, a toad with multiple eyes... Many of the spirits are not far from each other.

This time when Jinghu Lake was born, there were really many spirits besides the human race who gathered here, but I don’t know how many of them came from Yao Ze.

There are now three hundred feet away from the demon from the Red Moon Sect in front of us. If we want to catch up directly, it will only take a moment.

The distance between Lu Yao and the red-skinned Gu Master was actually only two hundred feet. If he wanted to do something, he could just turn around and rush over.

"Liu Feng, you must die a good death. Don't run away if you can..."

Lu Yao kept screaming, and the hatred in her heart was like a surging river. When she saw the young man opposite, she felt a dull pain in her chest.

She clearly remembered how cruel Liu Feng was that night, breaking her arms and trampling on her chest to severely injure her.

If Liu Feng hadn't defected, how would she have been embarrassed in front of all the Gu boys and Gu servants?
If Liu Feng hadn't abandoned her, how could she have been passed on by her father to the young master of the Jue Sect, and she would have become what the Gu boys privately called a shameless wild woman.

"Junior sister Lu, don't worry, he can't escape. Senior brother will definitely help you capture him and ask him to try the poisonous insects that I specialize in torturing people."

Meng Xinghun's eyes were disdainful. He was the young sect leader of the Jue Sect, and he was backed by the Jue Sect. The deputy sect leader was his father, and the sect leader was his uncle. However, this son was just a bastard from a refugee background, so he had no qualifications to compare with him.

The two sides moved in tandem, falling behind the demon from the Red Moon Sect.

Walking around here until late at night, I saw a large group of Red Moon Sect members in front of me.

The two people behind them saw that there were hundreds of followers, including many disciples wearing blood bat robes and four red-robed protectors.

The people of the Chiyue Sect formed a circle and seemed to be guarding there.

"Is it possible that the position they are guarding is an entrance? Several groups of members of the Scarlet Moon Sect came and performed blood sacrifices twice, and there are far more than these people." Meng Xinghun thought that most of the other members of the Scarlet Moon Sect went down to Jing Lake. Guilty.

According to reports, there are at least four groups of followers from the Chiyue Sect coming to Guzhou, with as many as a dozen guardians.

Those who are guarding it at this moment cannot be underestimated. Regardless of the members of the cult who are willing to die, the disciples of the second level and the four guardians are definitely not easy to mess with.

He possesses blood demon blood, cultivates demon power, and has extremely amazing recovery power. If a martial artist of the same level fights against him, even if he is not beaten to death, he will be dragged to death.

Meng Xinghun was hesitating whether to offer some benefits and ask for help from the Chiyue Sect, when his eyes suddenly changed.

In his sight, the half-demon girl from the Red Moon Sect who was following closely behind Liu Feng suddenly stopped and stepped back, not daring to step forward.

However, Liu Feng and his party had no intention of stopping, and actually strode towards the people of the Chiyue Sect who were gathered on the lake.

"What is he going to do?" Lu Yao's red lips trembled. She didn't think Liu Feng would negotiate with the Scarlet Moon Sect.

The next moment, there was a man and a woman here, their pupils shrank violently.

There are four people on one side, hundreds of followers on the other side, nearly 50 disciples, and four protectors. The gap is huge.

However, the red-haired young man who was extremely calm at first glance suddenly turned into a madman, with red Buddhist fire rising from his body, and a six-foot-armored strange sword in his hand, which he slashed in the face and killed everyone he saw.

Among the half-demon members of the Scarlet Moon Sect, all the faces were filled with shock and anger. It seemed that even they did not expect that they would start killing people when they saw them.
