The Ascension of the Evil Path: Starting from Refining Gu

In the southern part of the divine realm, beneath the pervasive yin energy, there is a site called the Zhaixing Palace.

Two waves of Yin energy erupted from the ground, and the Yin energy was rampant. A large number of evil cultivators who were good at evil methods appeared in the world. There were many ruins like this place occupied by evil cultivators.

The center of the ruins was divided into two, with the Xuanming Sect and the Jiusha Sect occupying the center.

Under the dim moonlight, on top of each of the two main halls, there was a True Immortal watching outside the ruins. They saw swarms of insects flying in the dark clouds and occasional corpses flying through the air.

"Fellow Daoist Zhang, the Earth Yin Locust Queen is at the level of a quasi-cult leader. This time she released the swarm of insects to kill and plunder. Could it be that she is collecting blood food in order to reach the level of a cult leader?"

“Fellow Daoist Fang, the one who calls herself the Queen Mother of the Earth Yin, if anyone hears her nickname of ‘Mother Locust’, be careful of being captured and fed to insects. As for whether she has broken through the realm or not, that is not something we True Immortals can control.”

The two sects were adjacent to each other. The two people standing on the roof of the hall communicated with each other and looked at the swarm of insects flying by with fear in their eyes.

The mother Yin locust on this ground is actually a Yin locust. As the locust swarm grows, it also raises a lot of strange insects and ownerless poisonous insects. Therefore, among the insect swarms it kills and plunders outside, there are not only Yin locust offspring, but also poisonous insects, which are extremely difficult to deal with.

At this time, slightly off the center to the north, with the Seven Immortal Sect as the center, the ground for hundreds of miles was shaking.

After a while, the range of the vibration expanded to five hundred miles.

The sudden movement attracted the attention of all parties in the ruins, and the Xuanming Sect and the Jiusha Sect were naturally alarmed.

On top of the main hall, the True Immortal Fang and the True Immortal Zhang looked at each other, and each took out their magic weapon for transmitting sound to contact their fellow Gu Immortal Daoists from the Seven Immortal Sect.

More than six hundred miles away is the Seven Immortals Sect.

All the formations in the entire Seven Immortals Sect were activated, and formation patterns were lit up everywhere.

Even so, the territory of the Seven Immortals Sect was still shaking, the palaces and buildings were shaking, and the ground was cracking.

At this time, in the depths of a hall in the underground palace, a spirit gathering formation was in operation, and fourteen people outside the formation were divided into two sides, one side was the four Gu Immortals of the Seven Immortal Sect.

The four Gu Immortals remained calm and took out their respective magic weapons for transmitting sound.

"Fellow Daoist from the Seven Immortal Sect, what happened?"

"If there is any problem in cultivation, or in refining treasures, we can all go over and help, but the benefits still need to be paid."

After receiving the message from the True Immortals of Xuanming Sect and Jiusha Sect, the four Gu Immortals did not dare to use their divine thoughts to transmit the message in response, and just kept the message transmission magic weapon in their sleeves.

The reason was simple. In the spirit gathering formation behind the four of them, a group of Gu were surging and there was a nine-colored cocoon.

One hundred and twenty-four years ago, the person in the cocoon found the Seven Immortals Sect, captured four of them without alerting the nearby sects, and secretly controlled the Nine Incarnations above the Seven Immortals Sect, while the people below the Nine Incarnations were completely unaware.

Their souls and bodies were all restricted, and the four Gu Immortals had no choice but to obey the orders.

But now is the time when the other party is reborn, and they cannot be distracted at the critical moment. That is their chance to find time to contact the evil immortal of his sect, and it is very likely that they will join forces with other evil practitioners to eliminate the other party.

However, what surprised them was why a ninth-generation reincarnated Gu Immortal could cause such a big commotion.

Forty years ago, this person cultivated to become a true immortal, and he did not make any noise, looking ordinary. But today, when he broke through the realm of Gu Dao, something seemed to be wrong.

The hall shook for only a moment, and all the creatures in the Seven Immortal Sect’s territory, including the four Gu Immortals, felt as if a mountain was pressing down on them, and an invisible pressure fell on everyone’s head.

"Bang, bang..." Broken stones fell to the ground one after another, and the hall became shaky.

The four Gu Immortals took action immediately, and soldier Gu crawled out one after another, lifting up the hall and the soil above.

Not far away on the right, ten people were standing or sitting outside the formation.

Except for Yu Zhenzi, Yu Ye and Lei Xiaolu, the rest of the people around Liu Feng, such as Fashi and others, all walked out of the Insect Palace.

In just these hundred years or so, in addition to the True Buddha Fashi, with the help of elixir and the essence of the Daoxiang tree, Yu Xia and Yu Ye, one became a reborn Gu Immortal and the other a Martial Immortal.

Not only did they become immortals, Liu Feng also bestowed upon them two magical treasures, each of them a set of insect shell armor. Yu Xia carried six magic swords that looked like insect legs, and Yu Ye held a long, sharp insect blade that looked like a long whip.

One of them had been suffering for thousands of years after failing to break through, and the other had been stagnant for many years. Because of Liu Feng's great kindness in giving them a new life, the two of them were now tense and extremely vigilant, and would not allow anyone to disturb Liu Feng's rebirth.

"Boom..." The hall collapsed with a loud noise again.

The invisible pressure on everyone's heads intensified, but the Immortal Grade Weapon Gu was still able to hold on.

Fa Shi and the others knew what was going on with such a big commotion. Ouyang Shuiling's eyes were darting around, and she understood it even more clearly.

Back when they were on Dongxu Island, the beast Liu made a big fuss when he was reborn for the eighth time, and as soon as he came out, he tried to snatch her True Immortal Flag.

Now that the beast Liu is about to transform into a Gu Immortal, it would be strange if there wasn't some noise.

“It’s almost there, it’s almost there… I’ve reached the late stage of the Ninth Lifetime, and I can still hold on. When that pure white immortal energy comes down, I’ll benefit from it, and maybe I can complete the Ninth Lifetime ahead of time.”

Ouyang Shuiling's mouth curled up slightly, unable to suppress her excitement, waiting to catch more pure white fairy air.

After a while, gravel fell like rain in the hall.

The main hall and the soil layer above it have already collapsed, and are only supported by four immortal-grade soldier Gu. However, looking at the huge and trembling bodies of the soldier Gu, it seems that they will not be able to hold on for much longer.

Because apart from the soil layer and the hall, the invisible heavy pressure that fell on his head fell first on Bing Gu.

It is hard to imagine for ordinary cultivators that the ninth life of Gu Dao, who has not yet truly become an immortal, can overwhelm four immortal-grade soldier Gu when he is reborn.

At this moment, all the rubble and soil above the heads of the people in the hall seemed to be squeezed away by a huge force, and a sinking depression appeared from the center to the surrounding areas.

It was as if out of nowhere, a piece of heaven and earth sank, and one corner of it hit them on the top of their heads, and the spirit gathering formation collapsed.

When the four evil Gu Immortals from the Seven Immortal Sect were surprised and puzzled, a white liquid with a thickness of half a foot surged down from the center of the depression and rushed towards the nine-colored cocoon in the middle of the Gu group.

"Here it comes." Ouyang Shuiling stood up suddenly, and got as close as possible despite the heavy pressure. She waved her hands, opened her mouth wide, and inhaled the pure white fairy air that was emanating from her.

Compared to his eight-life-reborn body, the pure white fairy energy in front of him was infinitely greater. There was so much fairy energy overflowing that the hall was covered with misty white fog.

"Lei Xiaolu."

Suddenly, the sound of willow wind was heard from the group of Gu, and a thin white stream was directed towards the dark-skinned woman.

Before she could thank him, the blood veins on Lei Xiaolu's body lit up. She was under great pressure and approached the nine-colored cocoon. She hurriedly drew the flow of immortal energy. As she had agreed with Liu Feng before, she would take this opportunity to impact the realm of true immortal.

At the same time, another stream of white liquid flew towards Fa Shi, who was shaking his head and smiling bitterly. He swept it away with a wave of his sleeve and sent it back to the place where Liu Feng was born.

On the left, the pupils of the four Gu Immortals of the Seven Immortal Sect all shrank as they stared at the falling white liquid.

The white fairy energy that overflows from it is of higher quality than the fairy energy in the virtual world.

The four of them were at the level of True Immortals, and they knew that the person who came to deal with them had something extremely strange about his Gu skills.

Wait another twenty breaths, thirty breaths... the surging group of poisonous insects were all transforming into immortal products, and eight sounds of strange poisonous insects rang out in succession from the nine-colored cocoon in the middle.

When the ninth insect chirp did not appear, the four Gu Immortals all felt the restrictions in their bodies loosen.

The opportunity they had been waiting for finally appeared. The Buddhist cultivator who had been reborn as a Gu Immortal in the cocoon had finally reached the most critical moment.

Without much hesitation, several people used magic weapons to transmit messages.

"My fellow Taoists from Xuanming Sect, come quickly. There is a great opportunity here."

"Fellow Daoist from the Nine Evil Sect, please call out your sect's Sha Yin Patriarch, so that the True Immortal level can come together. I have a True Buddha Perfection who is in the process of rebirth as a Gu Immortal." "This person is very powerful. I am afraid that the nearly 20 True Immortals from the three sects may not be safe. It would be best to ask the elders of the Dou Yin Palace to come over."

"The four of us have never lied. This evil creature is so cruel that there are only four of us left out of the seven Gu Immortals in our sect, and we are still controlled by him with restrictions."

The four Gu Immortals sensed the growing aura of the nine-colored cocoon, put away their voice transmission magic tools and looked over, only to see a group of whirlpools of empty space suddenly appearing outside the cocoon.

Densely packed small whirlpools rotated and intertwined, transforming into a worm shape with an open mouthpart, speeding up the swallowing of the pure white fairy air flowing down from above.

Seeing this scene, the four Gu Masters at the True Immortal level were horrified.

"No, it wasn't him who did it. It was the strange insect in his body that was actively seeking food!"

"It can trigger the void. What kind of strange Gu is this? Even those who inherit the Gu Dao of a great sect may not have such a rare and strange Gu."

Due to the limitations of their cultivation and experience, they could not see the strangeness of the strange Gu, and only felt that this Gu was too extraordinary.

……

Where the Seven Immortal Sect was located, the ground was falling apart.

The range of the vibration expanded, reaching a thousand miles, and the soil layer of a hundred miles near the center collapsed, and a sinkhole appeared out of thin air.

All the forces in the ruins were alarmed and watched from afar. They saw that the Xuanming Sect and the Jiusha Sect, the two sects occupying the central territory, had sixteen true immortals coming out and flying towards the sunken area of ​​the Seven Immortals Sect.

At this moment, in the Seven Immortals Sect, except for the ninth-generation Gu Masters and above, the rest of the disciples were all fleeing outside the sect, not knowing what was going on.

Among the sixteen evil immortals from the two sects, the strongest one is the Nine Evils Sect's great immortal ancestor.

“Everyone, follow my instructions and set up my Nine Evils Sect’s Extreme Yin Nine Killing Formation.” The Nine Evils Sect’s old ancestor was Sha Yin, wearing a gray robe and gray hair, with both suspicion and greed in his old eyes.

At the level of immortals and Buddhas, available opportunities are hard to come by, and the person who is reborn as a Gu Immortal in front of him is an opportunity that comes right to his doorstep.

The flags in the sky whistled towards the Seven Immortal Sect, and real immortal weapons used to support the formation flew out one after another.

Within a thousand miles, the negative energy was swirling wildly, and nine human-shaped figures filled with evil energy slowly took shape in the formation.

Among the sixteen true immortals from the two sects, there were both men and women, old and young. Nine of them immediately flew into the human-shaped evil spirit, while the remaining seven stayed outside the formation to bless the formation with their cultivation.

At the same time, the Nine Evils Sect's ancestor Sha Yin looked towards the dark clouds in the sky, and a streak of inky black light flew over.

The speed of the person's escape was beyond the level of a true immortal, but still a little slower than an immortal in his peak state.

"Why does Elder Ningxiang from Douyin Palace, who was specially invited, look injured?" Old Ancestor Shayin frowned.

Within five breaths, a stream of inky black light flew into the ruins and landed outside the Jiyin Nine Killing Formation, revealing the figures of three women.

The three women had gloomy eyes. The one leading them wore an evil ghost mask. She was the immortal elder of Douyin Palace, whose Taoist name was Ningxiang. The other two were true immortals.

“Senior Ningxiang, there is a person stuck in the formation. He is the ninth life of a Gu Immortal who is in the process of being reborn. But according to fellow Taoists from the Seven Immortal Sect, this person has reached the level of a perfect True Buddha and has also entered the early stage of a True Immortal in the art of refining his spirit.” Ancestor Sha Yin said in a deep voice.

The woman wearing the devil mask nodded lightly and looked up at the dark clouds in the sky. The scene from top to bottom was distorted and more and more insects were attracted.

The woman took a deep breath, and the white air in the air was absorbed into her body.

"The quality is beyond the immortal energy of the virtual world. This person really has an extraordinary opportunity. The swarm of insects of the Earth Yin Locust Mother has been attracted here. Things cannot be delayed. You don't have to guard the formation outside. Follow me into the formation and kill this person."

"Action together?" The ancestor Sha Yin frowned even more heavily, feeling confused and uncertain.

To deal with a perfect True Buddha, even if the elder of Douyin Palace is injured, he is still an immortal after all. Logically, they only need to block him outside.

Elder Ningxiang of Douyin Palace snorted coldly, and his fingers shook the thousand-mile territory.

"Do you think this person is an ordinary perfect Buddha? You are so short-sighted. This person may have an opportunity that would attract even the largest sects. If he is slow to attract a powerful force, it will be beyond our ability to intervene."

The Douyin Palace where she is located is quite powerful, with the Second Immortal Ancestor in charge, but the gap between it and the big sects is still huge.

The Earth Yin Locust Queen behind the swarm of insects in the sky is at the level of a quasi-leader, and the Dou Yin Palace does not dare to confront her head-on.

"Okay, let's do as you said, senior. Let's go into the battle formation together and quickly finish this matter."

As the old ancestor Sha Yin spoke, black light surged on his body. He put on a robe that carried a terrifying evil aura, and nine black precious rings appeared around his waist.

In the center of the Seven Immortals Sect, the soil layer for hundreds of miles sank downward.

Deep underground, four Gu Immortals pretended to take action themselves, working together with the soldier Gu to support the collapsed soil layer above.

A hundred feet away, a little girl with pigtails opened her mouth and inhaled the immortal air while pointing her finger and cursing.

"You four old men, stop pretending. You must have called those people outside. Wait until my master comes out and see how you die."

Ouyang Shuiling sounded arrogant, but in fact she was just bluffing and was extremely nervous inside.

She couldn't help but be nervous. There was a murderous formation outside, more than a dozen True Immortals had arrived, and she didn't know how long it would take for Liu Feng to be reborn.

"Boom..." a muffled sound suddenly occurred.

Ouyang Shuiling, Fashi, Yu Xia and others looked sideways and saw a passage that was punched through from top to bottom.

Like evil ghosts, evil spirits in the ninth realm or even the true immortal level swarmed into this underground hall one after another.

Among hundreds of powerful shadows, three women appeared, followed by the sinister and evil immortals in the back.

The leading woman wearing an evil ghost mask ignored the four Seven Immortal Sect Gu Immortals, and did not look at Fa Shi, Yu Xia and others. Her gloomy eyes stared directly at the nine-colored cocoons in the middle of the Gu group.

When she saw the worm-shaped void vortex above the cocoon, even though this woman had lived for 20,000 years, her pupils couldn't help but shrink.

With a flick of his sleeves, a long sword with a ghost head fell into his hand.

The elder of Douyin Palace, who went by the name Ningxiang, did not want to delay any longer. He held a knife in one hand and rapidly gathered red Yin Qi in the other. He appeared next to the white pulp flow above the cocoon in a flash, wanting to rob the immortal energy first.

The four Seven Immortal Sect Gu Immortals turned a blind eye to the outsiders' attack and even put away their soldier Gu, fearing that their own soldier Gu would be affected.

Amid the loud sound of collapse, the broken soil above sank and the halls on all sides began to collapse.

Fashi, Yuxia and Yuye, three immortal Buddhas, flashed and rushed towards the woman wearing the evil ghost mask.

However, nine black precious rings flew over and forced the three people back. Then a Taoist palace filled with murderous aura emerged and trapped them on the spot.

The old ancestor Sha Yin did not pay much attention to Fa Shi and others. With a look of surprise in his old eyes, he also flew towards the pure white liquid flow.

In addition to the ghost-faced woman who was incomprehensible to Fashi and others, there was also a true immortal who could suppress three immortals and Buddhas single-handedly.

Trapped in the Taoist palace, the three immortal Buddhas including Fashi were unable to break out. Ouyang Shuiling, Tu Qingyan and others who were trapped together were even more powerless to resist.

In their eyes, except for the two powerful men who came one after another, the other six true immortals used their own methods, and various evil methods and real weapons came out.

Around the collapsed soil layer, there were nine other true immortals, controlling a thousand-foot-long human-shaped evil spirit to lean down. Nine surging evil spirit snakes poured towards the nine-colored cocoon together.

Lei Xiaolu, who was sitting next to the cocoon, had a dark and pale face. How could she have the leisure to break through?
