Poverty

Chapter 1777 Good Medicine
The Kui Gang Dao Master's expression was somewhat cold and stern, as if he was about to make a move at any moment.

He had always appeared humble, polite, and very refined, but the Lord of Kui Gang was a Dao Lord who cultivated the demonic path, and the method of absorbing blood energy in the bronze coffin was created by him.

After some time, without needing sacrifices from others, he can recover by releasing demon kings and demon gods to plunder living beings.

Facing this extremely ruthless Dao Lord who was also very polite to him, Li Yanchu calmly said, "I'm sorry, I have no intention of following the Dao Lord."

Upon hearing this, the Kui Gang Dao Master's face flashed with murderous intent, and he coldly said, "I have tried to recruit you time and time again, but you have always looked down on me. If you were to gain power, would you ever take me seriously again!"

His face turned very pale.

Master Taiqing quickly advised from the side,
“Master Kui Gang, everyone has their own ambitions, and we cannot force them. Fellow Daoist Li is just having his own ideas.”

"This is none of your business!" the Kui Gang Dao Master said in a deep voice. "Since you have already decided to follow me, don't make decisions that contradict me."

He showed no respect to Daoist Taiqing, whose expression turned rather unpleasant.

The Lord of Kui Gang looked at Li Yanchu and said in a deep voice, "I will ask you one more time. Now that a great calamity is about to begin, do you want to follow me?"

The Lord of Kui Gang knew that Li Yanchu cultivated the Dao of Slaughter, and that the Dao of Slaughter had flourished after the outbreak of the extraterrestrial calamity. He needed such a master who controlled the Dao of Slaughter to be under his command.

Li Yanchu rejected him again.

The Lord of Kui Gang Dao looked fierce and was about to lash out.

Seeing this, Taiqing and the other two wanted to dissuade him, but with their strength, they could not possibly stop the Kui Gang Dao Master, and they probably couldn't even smooth things over.

Just then, a man in white suddenly emerged from the darkness.

The man in white said, "Kui Gang, I have a grudge against this man. Since you want to deal with him, why don't you let me do it?"

The man was dressed in white and looked very dashing, but his appearance was rather unappealing.

The Lord of Kui Gang frowned and said, "What does this have to do with you? You rebel from Hongjie, stop talking nonsense."

Dao Xiyi looked displeased.
“When we were students, I could tell that you were treacherous and ruthless. Looking back now, I shouldn’t have taught you group of extraordinary people.”

Dao Xiyi shook his head and deliberately sighed.

The Master of Kui Gang suddenly said, "If you want to kill him for revenge, just do it directly. Why do you need to ask me for a favor? You want to... capture him?"

The murderous intent in Kui Gang Dao Master's eyes had vanished. He said to himself, "But Li Yanchu is your Hong Realm's mortal enemy. Why did you capture him? Unless he has a treasure that tempts you, but even if it is a primordial spiritual treasure, you wouldn't be so interested. Did he obtain something in the Chaos Cave?"

The Kui Gang Dao Master's eyes were like torches as he swept over Li Yanchu.

At this moment, the golden wheel of cause and effect on Li Yanchu's body started to operate on its own, blocking his gaze.

The Master of Kui Gang looked surprised and thought to himself, "I was so focused on recruiting this kid that I didn't realize he was also proficient in Taoist arts. If I can't use this kid, I'll kill him to prevent him from becoming a menace."

The thought flashed through his mind.

Dao Xiyi smiled slightly: "Kui Gang, do you know where your problem lies? You are not a bad person who can be seen at a glance, but the evil in your bones cannot be hidden. In this respect, you are far inferior to Chen Yu and the other two. No wonder you were killed and sealed away by them."

The Kui Gang Dao Master's face was extremely ugly. Being killed and suppressed was a lifelong disgrace for him.

At this moment, the veins on his forehead throbbed. He suppressed his anger and said, "Dao Xiyi, since you want him, I will take him away and put an end to your idea."

Dao Xiyi frowned slightly; he really did have something important to confirm with Li Yanchu.

The Lord of Kui Gang is a troublemaker who will surely cause trouble, so we need to deal with him first.

Dao Xiyi said in a deep voice, "Your Taoist techniques were all learned in my Hongjie. If you don't know your own mortality, I will kill you and then suppress you."

The Lord of Kui Gang laughed wildly: "Although I studied in the Hong Realm, I have now learned even better!"

Having said that, he immediately raised his hand and attacked Dao Xiyi.

Dao Xiyi's Daoist magic and supernatural powers were extremely exquisite. After the two exchanged blows for only a short while, the Kui Gang Dao Master was already at a disadvantage.

Dao Xiyi sneered: "Is this what you call better?"

The Lord of Kui Gang shouted, "The Hong Realm is really too outdated."

Behind him appeared the phantom images of large universes, scattered in groups of fifty or sixty.

At this moment, his cultivation level surged, and Dao Xiyi was forced to retreat repeatedly, causing him to frown slightly.

The Great Dao of refining the vast universe was not something I learned from the Hongjie. The Hongjie did not follow this path; it was merely seeking self-proof.

A solemn expression appeared in Dao Xiyi's eyes.

If even a slain alien Dao Lord possesses such power, then how profound must the cultivation levels of Dao Lord Shi and Dao Lord Chen be!
None of the three have demonstrated this power so far.

When they fight, you will see the image of the Great Dao behind them connecting to the vast universe, but it is only mobilizing power from the vast universe, not mobilizing the Great Dao that has been refined.

Dao Xiyi grew increasingly wary of the three men's strength.

In the chaos of the alien calamity, what role the three, including Master Shi, will play is still worth pondering.

Dao Xiyi was fighting with the Lord of Kui Gang at this moment. Their battle caused the void to shatter, and the earth, fire, water and wind were reenacted.

The battle between the two was so powerful that it quickly spread to the mortal realm of the foreign land.

At this moment, the two great dynasties of Wei and Kang were at war. Suddenly, the immortal powerhouses on both sides saw terrifying divine powers spreading from the horizon, and then they saw two figures fighting each other.

The tens of millions of cultivators on both sides were overwhelmed by this terrifying divine power.

Countless demon kings and demon gods flew out, instantly transforming into billowing blood energy to strengthen themselves.

Dao Xiyi was secretly delighted.

He is the Dao Lord of the Hong Realm, and he doesn't care or feel sorry for the many foreigners who die.

On the contrary, the fact that the Lord of Kui Gang was a Dao Lord from another realm would kill his own people like this was somewhat unexpected.

In reality, the Lord of Kui Gang Dao is an old member of the Holy Clan. In his eyes, everyone except the old Holy Clan is a filthy reptile, unworthy of living in this foreign land.

At this moment, he fully activated the demonic path, and the terrifying demon king went out to hunt, and millions of cultivators were quickly wiped out.

Ninety percent of the cultivators who died at his hands were killed by him; Dao Xiyi only killed one-tenth of them with his supernatural powers.

Li Yanchu approached the three Taiqing Daoists and said in a deep voice, "This man is cruel and tyrannical, cultivates the demonic path, and is cunning. Do the three of you really want to associate with him?"

Even the Taoist Taiqing felt a pang of pity on his face.

Although they are all extraordinary beings, this also shows the ruthlessness of the Kui Gang Dao Master. He kills his own people without blinking an eye. How can we expect him to spare the Jing Realm and the Great Thousand Universe in the future?
The Taoist Taiqing sighed and said, "The three of us made a mistake by betting on him. He treated us with great respect and promised us a bright future."

Li Yanchu said, "The affairs of the Jingjie people need to be decided by the Jingjie people themselves; asking anyone else will not solve the problem."

Tongtian Daoren's heart trembled.
"It's a pity that the three of us have been searching for so many years, yet we've found nothing."

The battle between Dao Xiyi and the Lord of Kui Gang Dao gave them a chance to talk.

Li Yanchu said, "The one who saves Jingjie must be a person from Jingjie."

Taiqing Daoist: "That's right." He then looked at Yuqing and Tongtian Daoists and said in a deep voice, "What do you two think?"

Yuqing Daoist said, "Li Yanchu is from the Jing Realm. Compared to the Kui Gang Dao Master, I am more willing to believe him."

Tongtian Daoren also said, "I saw long ago that the Kui Gang Dao Master is not someone who can be entrusted with anything. He cultivates the demonic path, and once he encounters a powerful enemy, he may sacrifice the Jing Realm."

The Taoist Taiqing shuddered, took a deep breath, and said, "In that case, let's give him up!"

The three of them relied on others everywhere, seeking ways to save Jingjie, and abandoned their patrons without hesitation.

Li Yanchu said, "In that case, I will leave with the three of you and seek another method."

Taiqing Daoist and the others said, "Good."

But at this moment, the Lord of Kui Gang noticed their conversation. Seeing the three leave, he frowned and shouted in a deep voice, "Tai Qing, where do you intend to go?"

At this moment, he slapped down with a large hand, and instantly the world changed color. An extremely terrifying aura enveloped the group.

Countless demon gods and demon kings swarmed in, and tens of millions of cultivators were killed.

After being nourished by blood and flesh, these demon kings and gods became increasingly powerful, and they attacked like a tidal wave, looking extremely terrifying.

Li Yanchu summoned the Chaos Green Lotus, and a huge green lotus bloomed, with chaotic power surging outwards, instantly annihilating countless demon gods and tearing a large hole in the giant hand in the sky.

The giant hand still crashed down, shattering the void around them. Only the area protected by Li Yanchu remained; everything else vanished and turned into nothingness.

Li Yanchu said in a deep voice, "Let's go!"

Immediately, the group transformed into a streak of light and disappeared into the sky.

The Lord of Kui Gang Dao wanted to make another move, but was injured by a sharp divine power from Dao Xiyi, his arm covered in blood.

The leader of the Kui Gang Dao Sect shouted, "They're trying to escape, can't you see? Dao Xiyi, are you blind?"

Dao Xiyi smiled slightly and said, "They escaped, so they escaped. I never intended to capture them anyway. But you, you dog who doesn't know how to respect your master!"

Dao Xiyi cursed loudly, even though he wasn't a rigid person to begin with.

At this moment, he suddenly had a plan: to take advantage of his fight with the Lord of Kui Gang and use the Lord's supernatural powers to destroy the mortal realm of the alien world.

The two then fought even faster, affecting the mortal realm in the alien world.

The Lord of Kui Gang realized what was happening and sneered, "You want to use me to slaughter the alien realm? Fine, I'll grant your wish."

He doesn't care about all that.

This person is extremely cruel, no less so than Yingdao Master.

However, the Lord of Yingdao is obviously ruthless, but the Lord of Kuigangdao harbors the dangers of mountains and rivers and is by no means kind, yet he is good at disguising himself.

As the two clashed, more and more people in the mortal realm died, alarming the powerful figures in the Great Luo Heaven.

At this moment, Master Chen Yu's face was as cold as frost. He said, "You are becoming more and more presumptuous. It's not enough to destroy the Black Domain. You want to destroy the mortal realm as well. What kind of place will there be when only the Great Luo Heaven is left?"

When a universe is left with only rulers, it is no longer called a ruler.

Without a distinction between superiors and inferiors, what kind of world would it be?
Chen Yudao's face was extremely ugly as he left from the Great Luo Heaven.

...............

On the horizon, rolling clouds appeared, and a magnificent golden carriage emerged.

Lord Chen Yu arrived at the site of the two's battle in his precious chariot and said in a deep voice, "You two have gone too far!"

When Kui Gang Dao Master heard Chen Yu Dao Master's voice, his expression changed: "Chen Dao Master, how did we disturb you by bringing you down from the Great Luo Heaven? Why are you hiding your true face now?"

Master Chen Yu said in a deep voice, "Kui Gang, do you really think I can't control you? You dare to act arrogantly in front of me just because you've been resurrected!"

At this moment, Master Chen threw out a primordial spiritual treasure, which instantly shone brightly, and the three of them immediately engaged in a fierce battle.

…………

At this moment, Li Yanchu led Taiqing and the other two to charge out, unleashing a torrent of Dao power.

Li Yanchu summoned the Chaos Green Lotus, ensuring that the four of them remained unharmed.
Unfortunately, they didn't have time to observe the battle.

This is a battle between the Great Dao Lords, and one of them is Chen Yu Dao Lord, who has ruled this foreign land for 130 million years.

One is a Dao Lord from the ancient Hong Realm.

There was also a Dao Lord from another realm who had sought the Dao from the Hong Realm back then. When these three fought, Li Yanchu couldn't see the outcome.

Judging from the aura of the three who attacked just now, they were all much stronger than the Daoist Master of the Void Realm.

Li Yanchu led Taiqing and the other two out of the fighting area before asking, "Fellow Daoists, what are your plans next, and where are you headed?"

Taiqing Daoist sighed and said, "To be honest, Fellow Daoist Li, we only sought a way to be saved, but we entrusted the wrong person. In fact, we had long wanted to leave Kuigang Daoist Master, but we were unwilling to shatter our initial illusions."

Li Yanchu said in a deep voice, "Fellow Daoist, you flatter me. Everything is for the sake of saving Jingjie."

Taiqing Daoist took a deep breath and said, "The three of us are ashamed to stay here any longer. We will choose a place to cultivate later."

Li Yanchu said, "Why not return to Jingjie?"

He wouldn't have said that before, but now that the calamity of the Jing Realm has been resolved, the three of them can go back without any problem.

Tongtian Daoren suggested, "Why don't we return to Jingjie? This foreign land is a filthy place, full of demons and monsters. We can't cooperate with them. Instead, let's go back and stop spreading our teachings, strengthen the power of Jingjie, and then make our plans."

Yuqing Daoist said, "I also think that returning to Jingjie is the most appropriate option. If everyone in Jingjie is like a dragon, why should we worry about invasions from other realms?"

Taiqing Daoist pondered for a moment and said, "Since you two fellow Daoists have made up your minds, and we have always stood together through thick and thin, then so be it. I will not object any further. Let us return to our hometown."

Having been away from my hometown for tens of thousands of years, I am now going back, and I am still very excited.

Li Yanchu asked, "Do any of you three have a warship?"

Master Taiqing nodded and said, "There is a large ship. We have prepared to seek a way to rescue it before returning to Jingjie."

Li Yanchu nodded, watching their retreating figures with a sigh in her eyes.

They were all patriarchs in the Jing Realm, yet in order to strengthen the Jing Realm, they endured humiliation and compromised with powerful figures, suffering countless scornful looks and injustices. Li Yanchu only had respect for them.

Just as those who strive to save their country travel far and wide in search of a good remedy, this is a matter worthy of respect.

After they left, Li Yanchu looked towards the place where the three Dao Lords had fought, and felt a sense of emotion.

If he doesn't cultivate to the level of a Great Dao Master, he might be able to deal with ordinary Dao Masters, but if he were to truly contend with Dao Masters from other realms, he would be far inferior.

A strange light flashed in Li Yanchu's eyes.

He didn't go too far. If a Dao Lord were to fall today, the killing calamity would surge. Li Yanchu also wanted to take this opportunity to see if he could take that step.
