The Ascension of the Evil Path: Starting from Refining Gu

260 Three Years
The changes in the Great Suilong Vein subsided within two days.

After this incident, the arrest warrant for Yu Qiongzi was ranked first on Da Sui's wanted list.

But not long after, there were rumors from the Liang State that Yu Qiongzi had fled to the Liang State.

After a period of time, of the three remaining secret realms outside the border, one collapsed and two disappeared into the void again, never to be seen again.

People don't think much about such major events, and those at the bottom who are trying to make ends meet care about how to survive.

As time goes by, if the white horse passes by, the mountains will be withered and prosperous for three years.

In the past three years, Da Sui and the surrounding countries have been most concerned about two things.

One is that the Yin Yue Dynasty does exist, and its people are getting stronger and stronger, and many people from the fourth realm that go beyond the three realms have appeared.

Secondly, some unknown changes occurred in this world. Blood tides broke out in many waters, and powerful monsters and half-demon increased in number.

……

The snow is thick and it is the twelfth lunar month of winter.

Dasuimengzhou is located on an island in the sea outside Yuncang Mansion.

Under the evening sky, from the entrance of a cave on the island, more than a dozen figures wrapped in lightning flashed out.

Following them, there were nearly 30 people, all wrapped in the power of the five elements, and their movements were not slow.

"Rumble..." The giant thing in the cave rushed over, and the earth and rocks in the way were shattered like tofu.

The bloody mouth closed, and the twenty or so people behind disappeared instantly.

Scarlet demonic energy billowed, and the big snake with one horn chased it to the entrance of the cave. Its gloomy vertical eyes swept across the other humans who were fleeing, and slowly retreated.

The twenty or so people who survived rushed to the island and boarded a boat to escape as soon as possible.

"Damn it, it's a monster from the four realms again, and it's also a snake and dragon."

"Many of the elixirs created in various places have been taken over by monsters. These beasts have been getting worse and worse in recent years."

"Gang leader, all the brothers who followed you are almost dead... Your magic weapon can track spiritual energy, but it can't sense monsters?"

About twenty warriors stood on the deck of the boat, all looking miserable and cursing.

The young man surnamed Tao, who was called the leader of the gang, looked embarrassed. His magical weapon could not sense the aura of monsters, especially powerful monsters that had restrained their auras.

It was not easy for him to refute, after all, there were hundreds of good players when he came, and now only 24 people were alive.

All the brothers in the gang have been taught martial arts skills by him. The second level can cultivate the five elements of true energy, the third level can open the eight gates to increase vitality, and can call upon the power of wind and thunder.

Even so, against the increasingly powerful monsters, attacking in groups still resulted in heavy casualties.

If it were him who had just come to Da Sui, the monsters in the early stage of the Fourth Realm and the martial arts of the Third Realm with exquisite skills could easily be defeated by seven or eight people, but now they are going to die.

"We've been searching for spiritual objects along the coast of two states. It's time to go ashore. Where is the place ahead?" the young man surnamed Tao asked casually.

"Luojing Mountain, the territory of the Huixian Sect."

"The Immortal Transformation Sect? The bastard who chopped off my arm seems to be in the Immortal Transformation Sect."

The young man surnamed Tao subconsciously touched his left arm. Good medicines were scarce in Da Sui, and the stock he brought with him was limited. The broken arm only grew back half a year ago.

This person was Tao Guangqing from the Yin Yue Dynasty, who had his arm cut off by Liu Feng.

He went to the secret realm, but failed to find the way back, so he had to stay in Dasui and gather a group of reckless men. He became the gang leader and led people to search for spiritual objects and practice.

"It's really bad luck... let me change the route, don't go to Mengzhou, and disembark from Fengzhou."

The gang leader gave an order, and the fifteen third-level warriors remained silent while a few second-level warriors rushed into the cabin, mobilized the formations on the ship, and changed their route to the south.

Tao Guangqing knew clearly in his heart that these reckless men had become stronger after practicing his skills, and they were somewhat dissatisfied with him as the gang leader.

If he still loses his manpower like this next time, his brothers will turn against him and do evil things to him.

Sitting cross-legged on the bow of the boat, this young master from a large family of the Yin Yue Dynasty shook his head and sighed.

"Many people from the Yin Yue Dynasty have come here in the past few years, but I don't see anyone I know well."

"After all, I am a direct descendant of the Tao family. I have been missing for more than three years. The old ghosts in the clan never thought that I came to Da Sui?"

Heavy snow fell, and the ship cut through the waves.

Tao Guangqing was full of anger, and his eyes suddenly froze as he looked forward.

"Huh? Could it be that I have bad luck again!"

Afterimages flashed from behind, and the other fifteen warriors of the Third Realm rushed to the bow of the ship and also noticed something strange.

I saw waves rolling on the sea ahead, and many aquatic monsters were causing trouble. If I looked closely, they seemed to be vying for some benefit.

"Gang leader, they are all monsters below the third realm." The deputy gang leader, who was carrying a giant axe, came closer and said.

Tao Guangqing touched his chin, took out an iron ball-shaped magic weapon as big as a human head from the holding ring, and was about to give the monster in front of him a greeting gift.

There was a "bang" sound, and there was a sudden collision underneath the hull, and a monster jumped up from below.

Before the people on the boat could react, in the blink of an eye, hundreds of thousands of feet of nearby sea surface were dyed blood-red.

As the blood appeared, a rich demonic energy surged up from the sea.

A boatload of reckless men came to the side of the boat and looked around. They saw streams of blood twisting up under the water, like dozens of long bloody snakes emerging from the bottom of the sea.

The surrounding sea water immediately churned, and monsters hiding under the nearby sea surface swarmed in.

"Is this the demon blood that caused blood surges in waters everywhere?"

"This demon blood can strengthen monsters and half-demon, so hurry up and leave. When there are more monsters from the four realms, we won't be able to leave even if we want to."

"We really hit a disaster star. All bad things will happen to us."

When the ship turned around, dozens of long bloody snakes merged into the sea water, causing a blood tide that lasted for more than ten miles.

"Bang, bang bang..." Up and down the sea, large groups of monsters collided with each other, competing for monster blood.

One to the south and one to the west, two big fish with a size of more than thirty feet set off huge waves and rushed towards this side. They were two demon-cultivating Four Realms Aqua Tribes.

Twenty or so warriors, all from the third level and below, including the gang leader, were stationed throughout the ship to prevent monsters from attacking.

A large number of spiritual crystals were sent into the formation of the ship's hull, and the ship's hull passed rapidly on the sea water.

Tao Guangqing had a spurge in one hand and a thunderbolt in the other. He looked around from time to time and whispered to himself.

"It is rumored that every time a blood tide appears, it may take a moment or a few days, and the two sides will briefly approach each other, and someone from the Yin Yue Dynasty will take the opportunity to come over."

He was looking forward to the arrival of a strong man he knew well, but before the fellow villager arrived, a white light flashed on the left side of the ship.

"Crack..." The cold air surged, and from left to right, hundreds of feet of sea water was frozen.

On the ship, the warriors below the third realm were killed instantly.

Immediately afterwards, a big fish with scales like white jade jumped out and took a bite.

The Taoist formations purchased on the boat were like paper. Even the formations and half of the hull were swallowed by the big fish. The four third-level warriors disappeared on the spot.

"This evil beast is the fourth realm."

"Gang leader, please help us escape..."

The remaining eleven members of the Third Realm Gang abandoned the ship one after another and wanted to borrow the gang leader's magic weapon to escape together, but their gang leader Tao was nowhere to be seen.

The 11 people rolled up a violent storm and rushed toward Luojing Mountain on the waves. They saw that Gang Leader Tao had escaped hundreds of feet alone.

They fled for their lives, and a mirage quietly emerged in the sky above.The picture is not a small secret world, but a large and boundless sky.

The area where the two sides are approaching this time is not an inaccessible place, but is precisely in a corner of a certain city.

Tao Guangqing turned his head to look and exclaimed: "Wushu County, Tianyu City."

Monsters from all four realms were chasing after him, and he had no time to rush over. He was doomed to miss this opportunity to return to his hometown.

Each time the two sides close together, it only takes a moment. Once you miss it, you don't know when and where it will appear next time.

Looking through the mirage "window", lanterns are hung high on the long street. It is also night, and the bustling scene of a county city is better than that of Kyoto.

The eleven members of the Third Realm Gang who were left behind widened their eyes and were shocked in their hearts.

If they hadn't fallen into a group of monsters, they would have taken the opportunity to break into the Yin Yue Dynasty, but what surprised them at the same time was that the people on the opposite side seemed to want to come over as well.

In the past few years, news about Da Sui has spread across the street.

In the picture, everyone in the city discovered a mirage. After a brief period of surprise, hundreds of people rushed towards this direction.

Some people are stepping on magical swords, some are wearing black flags on their heads, some are holding wind and thunder... all kinds of streams of light are mixed with afterimages, and there are both righteous and evil cultivators.

For a moment, the monks from the Three Realms fell into the sea like dumplings, and there were also Four Realms among the Three Realms.

The next moment, the visitor laughed wildly, and all kinds of weapons smashed at the monster in the sea.

"Boom, boom..."

Further back, five realms seemed to appear on the opposite side, but they seemed to have hit an invisible barrier and could not cross over.

On the coast, Tao Guangqing and his party paused. They no longer needed to escape.

The white fish of the Fourth Realm chasing after them was nailed through the head by a black flag. The essence of flesh and blood was drained, and even the true spirit was sucked into the black flag. The one who took action was a Taoist cultivator of the Fourth Realm.

Except for Tao Guangqing, the other eleven members of the Three Realms Gang were stunned on the spot.

From the moment the mirage appeared to the time it disappeared, nearly 500 people came over. What shocked them was that most of them were in the third realm or above.

There are so many three realms in the Yin Yue Dynasty, it seems like the descendants of Da Sui who have just entered the second realm.

When they were surprised, the four realm demons who had taken action to destroy Baiyu flew close to them. They clearly looked like a young man in his thirties.

"You wait for me to enter the flag together with Pindao."

"Hua Yangzi of the Wuliang Sect? Wait a minute, I'm from the Tao family..."

A flag flew into the sky, and the formation spread out in an instant, covering a hundred feet of sea.

The billowing black mist rushed out of the black flags, and the five-headed and four-realm evil spirits spread out their palms and spread out the five-color streamers to cover the twelve warriors below.

This person can be recognized by Tao Guangqing, so he is a famous figure and can be regarded as a first-class genius among his peers.

I don't know if he recognized Tao Guangqing and couldn't hold back, or if he recognized Tao Guangqing and just pretended not to see him. Anyway, in a foreign country, it is normal to accidentally kill several fellow villagers.

Five heads and four realm evil spirits cast spells in the air. Eleven members of the gang were unable to resist and were sucked into the black flag one after another.

Only Tao Guangqing could barely hold on, anchoring the surrounding area with four military weapons.

"I am well-known in Wushu County, there is no way this beast doesn't recognize me!"

Tao Guangqing's face was ferocious, and he looked around, trying to find someone he knew well enough to save his life.

At the critical moment, a very familiar figure in pink skirt flew over and sprinkled poisonous needles towards the Taoist on the black flag.

Seeing this woman appear, Tao Guangqing opened his mouth wide and looked horrified. He turned around and ran away while the other party was holding Hua Yangzi down.

In the sky, two people from four realms were fighting each other in the blink of an eye.

"Huayangzi, you want to take advantage of the chaos to kill my brother? You dare to kill members of my Tao family too!"

"Brother Guangqing, I still have a corpse on hand to form the Five Elements Formation. Don't let your sister down."...

A woman's delicate laughter could be heard from behind, but Tao Guangqing beat his heart repeatedly, sparing no effort and blood as he continued to use the secret technique of escape.

The Tao family is not monolithic. There are fierce battles among the direct lineages. Several direct lineages want his life. This clan sister who is a martial artist and a Taoist cultivator is one of them.

……

In Luojing Mountain at night, several hills facing the sea turned into black.

I don't know when thousands of Gu insects arrived, and three elders of the Immortal Slaughter Sect appeared in the middle of the insect tide.

The leader, who looked like a boy, was the great elder of the Immortal Sect.

The three elders stood on the top of the mountain and looked for a while. They found that none of the people coming from the Yin Yue Dynasty were in the first or fifth realm, and there were no benefits that they could see, so they couldn't kill anyone.

Even if the three of them attack together, it will take a lot of effort to kill those people. There are too many people in the three realms, and there are dozens of people in the fourth realm.

If one of the visitors is armed with a deadly weapon, they may capsize in the gutter.

"It has only been three years, and four realms have crossed over, and there may be five realms in the future."

"Go back, our Immortal Transformation Sect needs to make plans early."

The three elders looked solemn, and did not conceal the movement of the insect tide when they left, intending to frighten those who came ashore behind, lest anyone risk their lives and break into the Immortal Slaughter Sect.

Among the mountains, the gate of Huixian Sect is covered by illusion.

At this time, there is a mountain to the west of our sect, inside a cave on the mountainside.

In addition to the bedroom, the six stone rooms on the left and right are filled with small insect nests, with hundreds of thousands of Gu insects dormant inside.

Among the three stone rooms, in the medicine pool under the insect nest, two soldier Gu and one barbarian Gu were sleeping.

On the walkway, a half-demon girl with horns was sitting cross-legged on the ground. Behind her were four fire wheels spinning faintly, one of which was the red sun fire, which was the True Fire of the Great Sun.

To be able to cultivate this fire, it's only thanks to the master's energy.

The four images of true fire, two yang and two yin, create a more powerful true fire, and it will be better if you fight in the same realm.

At this time, a woman wearing a black robe with cloud patterns quickly entered the cave.

"Qiao Bei, is the master still in retreat?"

The half-demon girl was none other than Qiao Bei. She nodded and asked puzzledly: "Ye Yunmeng, you haven't come over in recent months. What are you doing now?"

"There is a blood tide outside the mountains and near the sea. Many protectors and direct disciples are out competing for benefits. If you are interested, you can go and explore the situation."

After Ye Yunmeng finished speaking, Qiao Bei's mouth drooled. There was a flash of fire and the person was gone.

The appearance of the blood tide means the gathering of demons. I heard that people from the Yin Yue Dynasty will also take the opportunity to come over. Demon blood, aquatic monsters, and warriors, this is a rare opportunity to make up for the situation.

As soon as the little half-demon left, there was no sound in the cave. Ye Yunmeng looked at the closed stone door of the bedroom with awe in his eyes.

"The last time the master took action, three kinds of strange Gu have shed their skins twice. Now the fourth strange Gu is probably about to shed its skin for the second time." Ye Yunmeng did not dare to interrupt, turned around and walked out of the cave.

In the past three years, four direct disciples have all died at the hands of Liu Feng.

There is no restriction on fighting among the same sect within the sect, but you are not allowed to do anything secretly. Even if you eat the opponent alive in a head-on contest, the sect will not interfere.

Under such rules, there were many people from the direct lineage of the older generation who took action against the direct lineage of the younger generation. During this period, the three elders who came to Liu Feng, none of them could walk out of this cave alive.

The most recent person to be found was a new direct descendant who was promoted when the mountain gate was reopened this year, and his death was without any suspense.

Regardless of whether the older direct lineage or the new direct lineage came to the door, Ye Yunmeng had never seen the leader use Buddhist cultivation in the four fights.

Three years have passed, and she still doesn't know how far Liu Feng has reached in cultivating the roots of the Three Buddhas.
