Mortal: The Heavenly Spiritual Root that Begins from the Demonic Path

With the end of the Nascent Soul Battle, the situation on the Jinguyuan battlefield changed slightly.

The first were the disciples of Lingshou Mountain. They had been guarding several important roads, but not only did they open the passes to let the demon cultivators pass, they also teamed up with the demon cultivators to attack and kill the other disciples guarding the passes.

The location where the seven sects were fighting stretched for dozens of miles, and many of the foundation-building monks in Lingshou Mountain had already made preparations for rebellion. Therefore, with the help of this group of people, the demon monks marched straight in and divided the seven sects into several large groups.

Yi Jue got entangled with two Jindan cultivators, both of whom were elders of Huadaowu. One of them was Feng Tianyang's disciple, and his cultivation had reached the early stage of Jindan.

One of the men's methods was almost the same as Feng Tianyang's. Yi Jue could have easily gotten rid of him, but the other man's method was extremely strange. He had an ancient treasure, a small drum, which could shake Yi Jue's sword spirit.

Most of Yi Jue's sword skills were powered by the sword spirit, but under the effect of his ancient treasure, the power of his sword skills was reduced by 30%.

When Yi Jue was chasing this cultivator, Feng Tianyang's disciple stopped him every time. One of them had amazing attacks, and the other had strange methods, and they actually managed to hold Yi Jue back for a short time.

However, it was difficult for Yi Jue to kill the two people, but it was quite easy for him to remain undefeated. Neither side could do anything to the other.

After several battles, although Yi Jue had extraordinary skills and a solid foundation, some of his powerful magical powers were a bit difficult for him to use. At the moment, he just accompanied the two of them to restrain each other.

Yi Jue's combat power on the battlefield was also seen by all the Jindan cultivators, so they had to come up with such a diversionary tactic. Yi Jue had the opportunity to leave directly, but once he left, these two tough opponents would come up to him again, like taffy.

In addition, this war had already entered a white-hot stage, and the Jindan cultivators on the Demonic Path were already unable to cope with the situation. Moreover, Yi Jue had no friendship with many Jindan cultivators on the Demonic Path, so gradually no one cared about the battlefield between the three.

Therefore, at this time, Yi Jue had the leisure to observe the situation on the battlefield. He saw that although the cultivators of the seven sects were brave and showed great enthusiasm in the process of defending their homes, many talismans were directly poured out to the opposite side.

The demonic monks were not willing to be outdone, and they suffered huge losses not only of talismans but also of magical weapons.

Pills were being consumed constantly all the time. Although the fight between the two sides had some minor interruptions due to the rebellion of Spirit Beast Mountain, it would probably take another day or two to completely determine the winner.

Among the Jindan cultivators, there were only three Jindan cultivators from Lingshou Mountain who joined this battle. Two of them were in the early Jindan stage, and one was in the middle Jindan stage.

The cultivator in the middle stage of the Jindan realm joined forces with a cultivator in the early stage of the Jindan realm from Huangfeng Valley to fight against a cultivator in the middle stage of the Jindan realm from the Yuling Sect of the Demonic Path. This cultivator in the middle stage of the Jindan realm from the Yuling Sect actually had a demon beast in the middle stage of the Jindan realm.

The two sides fought back and forth, but the ascetic monk from the Huangfeng Valley was a monk who was devoted to the Great Dao. He did not react to the situation on the battlefield at all, and was attacked from behind by the Jindan monk from the Spirit Beast Mountain, which forced him into a desperate situation.

After several unsuccessful escape attempts, he was captured by the Yuling Sect and two Jindan masters from Lingshou Mountain. The other two Jindan masters from Lingshou Mountain were not so lucky.

Although several of them had received news of the rebellion in Lingshou Mountain, they were unable to give up their feelings for the seven sects overnight.

Although considerable results were achieved, no Jindan cultivators died.

On the contrary, there was a foundation-building cultivator from the Spirit Beast Mountain, and his Taoist partner was from the Moon-shaking Sect. The relationship between the two was not harmonious, but it could be regarded as respectful. This time, the foundation-building cultivator directly broke into the battlefield of the Jindan cultivator, and after his Taoist partner got close to him, he stabbed him with a knife. His opponent, the ghost cultivator from the Ghost Spirit Sect, naturally would not miss this good opportunity, and the two of them joined forces to kill a Jindan cultivator.

Yi Jue watched and shook his head. On the battlefield, there were life-and-death crises everywhere. Yi Jue was dealing with the two people in front of him while his spiritual sense was constantly scanning the area. He discovered many interesting scenes and even sensed that Mo Luo's cultivation was increasing rapidly in the process.

Mo Luo, who had just broken through to the middle stage of Jindan not long ago, now looked like a cultivator who had been immersed in the middle stage of Jindan for a long time with all his magical powers flowing together.

Suddenly, Yi Jue's expression flashed, and a familiar breath flashed through his spiritual sense. Yi Jue's expression condensed. He had just sensed this magic weapon, so it must be correct.

It is an invisible needle.

However, that old monster Qiong had consumed his energy and blood when he performed his secret technique. His life span was not long to begin with, so he should have found a place to recuperate directly.

However, after careful investigation, Yi Jue discovered that although the invisible needle was concealed, it was not completely undetectable. It seemed to have only 70% to 80% of its power. Suddenly, Yi Jue thought of the information that Moluo had previously obtained.

When Old Monster Qiong was undergoing the trial in the Blood Forbidden Land, he once lost a bet with three invisible needle talismans. One of these three talismans was given to Hong Fu by Li Huayuan. Later, when Hong Fu was killed by Mo Luo, the talisman naturally fell into Mo Luo's hands.

The remaining two are still in Li Huayuan's hands. The aura of this talisman is hidden and its power is strong. Although it was discovered by Yi Jue, it does not mean that everyone can discover it.

At this moment, seeing that the invisible needle was facing a Yuling Sect cultivator, Yi Jue had no intention of warning him. Instead, he flashed and escaped from the encirclement of the two. The two panicked and hurried to catch up.

The cultivator who was controlling the ancient treasure was not good enough in escape method, so after the invisible needle was condensed, Yi Jue kicked the Jindan cultivator to the place where the invisible needle talisman must pass.

The monk was kicked away and immediately put up a full body defense. However, Yi Jue put a great pressure on him in front of him, and he didn't feel the invisible and intangible light flashing on his side.

With a ding sound, the man felt as if something had stabbed his brain. He then looked to the side in disbelief and saw Li Huayuan's somewhat shocked expression.

"What kind of secret technique is this?"

Seeing the cultivator holding the ancient drum die inexplicably after being kicked by Yi Jue, the sword cultivator from Huadaowu was shocked. He retreated without hesitation and ran away from the battlefield.

As Yi Jue put away the body of the Jindan cultivator, the ancient treasure shaped like a rattle appeared in Yi Jue's hand, and he began to examine the ancient treasure as if no one was around.

"No, if we win now, the rewards will be great, but we won't suffer any damage at all. We might become the main force later, and we won't have much autonomy. We have to retreat at the height of our career."

Yi Jue thought of this in his heart, and immediately coughed twice, and put away the ancient treasure, as if he had just performed a hidden trick. Although he killed the enemy, his vitality was seriously damaged. (End of this chapter)
