Pure Yang!

Chapter 181: The fight continues until death! The memory of the Taoist priest of the Three Corpses (5k chapter)

I don’t know how high the sky is, and I don’t know how high the mountain is.

When everything was settled, the former [Prison Immortal Temple] had turned into ruins, and everyone gradually relaxed their tense nerves in a trance.

Li Changgeng's corpse fell in a pool of blood, his neck broken and headless. This scene seemed like a dream to everyone...

The most unreal dream.

At this moment, a loud and clear cry of a crane resounded through the long night that was about to come to an end, and the echo in the deep mountains was unknown.

The dense dark clouds slowly dispersed, and the bright moon highlighted a huge figure that appeared under the sky and before everyone's eyes.

It was a white crane, with a crest as red as a gem, a long neck as dark as the night sky, and its floating feathers were glowing with a silvery-white luster. Its loud cry sounded like the roar of a dragon.

"White Crane...the white crane in Baihe Temple..." Lin Jianyue turned pale and was the first to call out.

Although it is forbidden to turn into spirits or monsters after the establishment of the country, there are countless spirits and monsters in the mountains. Over time, a few of them can be raised. It is not a big deal.

But a true demon is one that takes over a human body and becomes another kind of creature. This kind of existence is truly terrifying.

They have human bodies and live in the world, but the most powerful thing is still their true body that is hidden deep inside.

That is their greatest reliance.

Just like Shi Shougong and Su Shiyu, although they are also adults transformed into monsters, their true forms are hidden elsewhere. Once their true forms are revealed, their power will instantly multiply infinitely.

Because of this, there are very few real monsters in the world today, and monsters that are more than three hundred years old can be counted on one hand.

However, behind the ten famous Taoist mountains in the world, there are several that raise the only remaining terrifying monsters.

For example, the white crane in Baihe Temple, the gray ape in Zhongnan Mountain, the old turtle in Zhenwu Mountain, and so on.

Lin Jianyue didn’t know if the one in front of her was the old crane that had lived for more than three hundred years, but the feeling of oppression made her tremble.

The crane's eyes were filled with human-like emotions, so cold that it made people shudder. Its superior feeling seemed as if it were a real god standing above the sky.

call……

The mountain wind was blowing wildly, and Zhang Fan's face was solemn. He slowly supported himself with the help of Jiang Lai. Facing the white crane, he felt tremendous pressure.

If the white crane in front of him is also a monster, then the Stone Ghoul and Su Shiyu are at most two insects, and are not the same kind of existence at all.

The cold and indifferent eyes swept over Zhang Fan, and only stayed there for a moment. Suddenly, the white crane raised its head and cried, its wings vibrating, and a strong wind blew violently...

Then it dived, and the sound of the sonic boom shook the eardrums.

In full view of everyone, it grabbed Li Changgeng's corpse with its claws and slowly floated into the air.

hum...

At this moment, a white, milky mist surged from the broken neck of Li Changgeng. In the mist, scattered flesh and blood slowly gathered together, as if a ball, wrapped in the milky white mist, lingering at the broken neck of Li Changgeng...

"This...this is..."

Liu Xingchui's face trembled and he clenched his hands suddenly. Looking at the scene in front of him, he could not believe his eyes.

"The magical power of Taoism, regenerating a severed head!?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's expression changed. Even Zhang Fan raised his eyebrows and his eyes became fixed.

"Li Changgeng...he actually awakened two kinds of Taoist magical powers?"

"This is impossible... absolutely impossible..."

A huge wave was set off in everyone's heart. This shock was even more intense than Li Changgeng's death at the hands of Zhang Fan.

The magical powers of Taoism are gifts from heaven. Being able to awaken one is already a great fortune and a blessing from ancestors...

Even famous disciples like Qi Delong and Qi Dongqiang had never heard of anyone in this world who could awaken two Taoist magical powers at the same time.

"A monster? It's definitely not human."

Everyone was in a state of confusion, vaguely guessing that this successor of Baihe Temple was no ordinary person and was hiding unknown secrets.

Rumble…

The white crane soared into the sky, flapped its wings and flew high. In full view of everyone, it carried Li Changgeng's body and disappeared into the endless sky.

"It's gone..." Liu Xingchui said in a trance.

"Why didn't it kill us?"

Liu Xingyu suddenly spoke and said this.

As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes fell on him, revealing a strange look.

"I...I'm just curious..." Liu Xingyu curled his lips.

“It disdains.”

At this moment, a cold voice came from a distance.

When everyone looked up, they saw a young man with a capable figure, wearing sportswear and white sneakers, walking towards them like a mountaineer.

"Zhao Jiexuan!?" Lin Jianyue frowned slightly and looked at him. A complicated expression appeared on her pretty face. She had vaguely guessed something.

"Little white rabbit, stop pretending. You see, he and I were originally one."

Zhao Jiexuan pointed at Zhang Fan in the distance, a sneer appearing on his face.

As soon as these words were spoken, different thoughts arose in everyone's mind.

This kind of secret is not something that everyone can hear.

But Zhao Jiexuan said it openly and seemed not to care at all.

"Where did you come from?" Zhang Fan couldn't help but ask.

Just after the separation of the soul and the evil god, there was no trace of him, and no one knew where he had hidden his body.

"I hid my body halfway up the mountain. If I can't win, I can still escape in time." Zhao Jiexuan had already prepared a retreat route.

"..."

"You are so sinister." Zhang Fan couldn't help but say.

"It's meaningless to praise yourself." Zhao Jiexuan grinned and said lightly.

"How's your recovery going? Can you give me some help if you can?"

"What help do you need?" Zhang Fan was stunned.

"Of course it's to silence the witness." Zhao Jiexuan said as a matter of course.

"After seeing and hearing so much, shouldn't I die?"

Zhao Jiexuan narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze fixed like a line, and swept over everyone.

"Are you going to kill them all?" Zhang Fan raised his eyebrows and asked subconsciously.

"You mean... the woman should stay?" Zhao Jiexuan looked as if he was thinking seriously.

"..."

hum...

At this moment, Qi De, Long Dongqiang, Lin Jianyue, and even the Liu brothers' expressions suddenly changed. They subconsciously took a step back and became fully alert.

"Do you still have room to resist now?" Zhao Jiexuan sneered.

When they were in the Daluo Palace, the spirits of Qi De, Long Dongqiang and Lin Jianyue were suppressed by Zhang Fan, and they have not recovered yet. As for the Liu brothers, Zhao Jiexuan did not take them seriously at all.

call……

Suddenly, Zhao Jiexuan raised his hand, and his true yang surged. In a trance, there seemed to be a surge of blood, just like Li Changgeng's [Seven Arrows Book with Nail Heads] just now. The power of his soul turned into four blood-red nails, which shot out at lightning speed and directly penetrated into the four people's eyebrows and spiritual platforms.

boom……

The next moment, Qi Delong Dongqiang, the Liu brothers, and Lin Jianyue tensed up and fell down together.

"You learn really fast."

Zhang Fan stood up, walked over slowly and glanced at Zhao Jiexuan.

Although this skill is not the real [Seven Arrows Book], it has its form and is 20% to 30% as powerful.

"Not killed?" Zhang Fan took a glance.

Zhao Jiexuan left a lot of leeway. The souls of the four people were imprisoned and they just fainted.

"Those two are your people, you can handle them as you wish." Zhao Jiexuan pointed at the Liu brothers.

As for the two brothers Qi Delong and Qi Dongqiang...

"Two souls in one body... I have to study it first..." Zhao Jiexuan's eyes flashed with excitement.

This kind of material is not easy to find, not to mention that he is the heir of Laojun Mountain. This identity alone can be used well.

As for Lin Jianyue...

"The little white rabbit is so white, with its ears standing up. It is so cute lying there motionless after cutting its arteries and veins..."

At this moment, a pleasant cell phone ringtone rang. Zhao Jiexuan walked over, fumbled around Lin Jianyue's body, took out a cell phone, looked down at it, and immediately hung up.

"A living rabbit is more valuable than a dead one, so let's keep it for now." Zhao Jiexuan said lightly.

As he spoke, Zhao Jiexuan put the phone into his pocket and turned to look at Zhang Fan.

"Chat for a few minutes!?"

"Let's chat." Zhang Fan nodded.

The two walked to the ruins and sat down face to face.

This feeling is very strange and special.

"I didn't expect Li Changgeng to be so difficult to kill..."

Zhao Jiexuan's eyes darkened slightly, with a hint of coldness flashing across them.

After being severely damaged by [Demons Celebrating Birthday] and [Golden Cloud Box] successively, he was still able to fight Zhang Fan on equal terms. In the end, he was hit on the head by the power of [Golden Cloud Box]. If it were anyone else, he would have died a thousand times.

You know, he had been planning for a long time to hunt down Li Changgeng.

"You tested me on the high-speed train to see if there is any possibility of fusion?" Zhang Fan said in a deep voice.

Zhao Jiexuan nodded: "I am you, and you are me... It doesn't make much difference whether I eat you or you eat me..."

The good god, the evil god, and the evil god are originally one. Once they merge, they are Zhang Fan and not Zhang Fan.

Everything that happened yesterday has made me who I am today, and everything that happened today has made me a new me.

Because of this, there were no setbacks when the evil spirits merged.

But the evil god is different. As the three gods merge into one, Zhang Fan will be able to truly escape the calamity. The most important thing is that if he succeeds in merging the gods, he will have taken a big step forward in [Three Corpses Guarding Life].

This is not allowed by the laws of nature.

This kind of heresy must never appear in the world. "To kill him, you must be in harmony with God. I knew it was a failure when I tried to test him on the high-speed train..." Zhao Jiexuan said calmly.

It is not easy to divide the mind, and it is even harder to unite the mind.

If Zhang Fan had not practiced [Holy Embryo of Gods and Demons], perhaps it might have been possible, but his soul was too special now.

Zhao Jiexuan was naturally aware of this. He had prepared many means, but to deal with Li Changgeng, he had to be prepared for even the worst.

Zhang Fan was prepared for that eventuality. Since he couldn't merge his spirits, he began to try to figure out the Qi brothers' [Soul Merging Method]. This method was of great reference value.

But I never expected...

"I was careless. I didn't expect that he actually possessed two Taoist magical powers, and one of them could save his life." Zhao Jiexuan said in a deep voice.

Li Changgeng's strength was indeed stronger than he had imagined, but Zhang Fan was not in a completely victorious state now. Fundamentally speaking, he had not escaped the calamity yet and was only relying on the [Soul Combination Method] to take advantage of the situation.

Li Changgeng has been weakened, and Zhang Fan is not at his peak...

This was the second confrontation between the two, and it was still a draw.

"It's really hard to kill him." Zhao Jiexuan gritted his teeth.

"He has practiced the art of seizing fortune from heaven and earth, so naturally he has extraordinary luck. If he were so easy to kill, he would not be the successor of Baihe Temple." Zhang Fan said in a deep voice.

"It's not completely fruitless. This time we get to know each other better." Zhao Jiexuan nodded.

"Next time we meet, it will be a fight to the death." Zhang Fan's heart was as clear as a mirror.

Ten years ago, at the foot of Mount Longhu, he and Li Changgeng met for the first time. It was also the first time they fought each other. It was a young and powerful battle, and it was a meeting between two kings.

There was no winner at that time. Li Changgeng was seriously injured and dying. His body was almost torn apart by Zhang Fan. In the end, he rode away on a crane.

Zhang Fan was also forced into the great night and was in a trance for a full ten years.

The second encounter ten years later still ended in a draw.

"Regenerating a severed head... Is there such a magical power in this world? Can one really grow a new head?" Zhang Fan couldn't help but ask.

Even as a monk, he felt that this level of power was still too magical.

"I've only heard about it. It shouldn't be that mysterious. He will probably need quite a long time to recover." Zhao Jiexuan guessed.

As long as the soul is not dead, everything is possible.

"The only thing that can truly bring the dead back to life in this world is the legendary method of [A birth, Gui death]."

The [Jia Birth and Gui Death] mentioned by Zhao Jiexuan is also listed as one of the nine legendary inner alchemy methods, just like [Divine and Demon Holy Fetus], [Three Corpses Illuminating Life], and [Heaven and Earth Seizing the Fortune].

"You have to pay attention. If you find someone practicing this method, you must be extra careful." Zhao Jiexuan suddenly said.

"Jia is born and Gui dies? Why?" Zhang Fan asked puzzled.

"I have been in Wuwei Sect for a long time and have heard some secrets." Zhao Jiexuan said in a low voice.

“The Dao Sect’s great calamity… Although eighty years have passed, both the Wuwei Sect and the Dao Sect are still trying to find the secret.”

The Universal Ceremony was a great calamity for the Taoist sect. For some reason, everyone believed that the hope of becoming an immortal was hidden in that calamity.

Chu Chaoran, a young boy who had just started out, became the only survivor of that catastrophe, but because of this he achieved the realm of Pure Yang Wuji.

It was also for this reason that ten years ago, Zhang Lingzong reopened Longhu Mountain and escaped unscathed, which attracted the covetousness of masters from all sides.

In their eyes, Zhang Lingzong walked out alive, perhaps discovering clues to the great disaster that happened to the Taoist sect that year.

In fact, he did bring something out of it.

Thinking of this, Zhang Fan and Zhao Jiexuan subconsciously looked at Jiang Lai next to them.

In their memory, the person Zhang Lingzong brought out from Longhu Mountain was Jiang Lai, the still young Jiang Lai...

Zhang Fan vaguely knew that Jiang Lai was one of the most crucial clues to the Taoist catastrophe.

Perhaps, their meeting was not accidental.

"I heard that eighty years ago, on Mount Longhu, [A birth, Gui death] occurred..."

This may be the biggest secret Zhao Jiexuan discovered in Wuweimen.

"A is born, Gui dies..."

"Be careful, people who practice this method are very dangerous." Zhao Jiexuan reminded again.

As he spoke, he turned around, took out an iron box from behind him, and stuffed it into Zhang Fan's hand.

"Golden Treasure Box!?"

"This thing is for you. It is said that the Taoist Sanshi discovered this golden glow in this mountain and then he comprehended the secret of [Three Corpses Illuminating Life]..."

"If we want to break the catastrophe and merge into a god, I think the key lies in this thing."

As he spoke, Zhao Jiexuan stood up, went into the ruins and started searching.

"You don't have to worry about Baihe Temple. That bastard Li Changgeng probably won't cause any trouble for a while. Besides, he won't use the power of Baihe Temple to cause trouble for you." Zhao Jiexuan said lightly.

"What you mean is..." Zhang Fan thought thoughtfully.

"Hehe, if he doesn't kill you with his own hands, you will become his inner demon... Your heart will collapse, and the night will be just around the corner..."

As he spoke, Zhao Jiexuan turned around and looked at Zhang Fan. He couldn't help but said, "Why don't you just commit suicide and make him regret it for the rest of his life."

"The devil is deeply rooted in my heart, kill him!"

"..."

"You are even more cruel than Li Changgeng." Zhang Fan curled his lips and couldn't help but say.

A moment later, Zhao Jiexuan took out an ancient painting from the ruins. It was the [Demons Celebrating a Birthday]. He rolled it up and put it behind his back.

"gone."

As he spoke, Zhao Jiexuan took a step forward and came to Qi Delong Dongqiang and Lin Jianyue. He carried one on his shoulders in each hand and disappeared into the night with big strides.

"Golden Treasure Box!"

Zhang Fan tightly grasped the treasure box in his hand, turned around and looked at Zhang Beijiang not far away. The latter's arms had turned black and even began to carbonize.

Zhang Fan couldn't help but frown.

"Just opening a box is so dangerous?"

You know, Zhang Beijiang's body can withstand the two true fires of the Liu brothers and remain unscathed.

“This thing is too dangerous.”

Zhang Fan couldn't help but look at Jiang Lai. She had also opened the iron box, but at this moment, Jiang Lai's arms seemed to become abnormally transparent, and the blood was flowing, recovering from her injuries at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"It's indeed unusual." Zhang Fan said to himself.

"Sorry……"

At this moment, Jiang Lai suddenly spoke.

"Why are you saying sorry for no reason?" Zhang Fan was stunned.

"I shouldn't have put you in danger... You are important..."

Jiang Lai raised her head and looked at Zhang Fan, her clear and beautiful eyes glowing with a different kind of light.

Zhang Fan's heart seemed to be moved, and he quickly smiled and said, "It's okay, it's fine now."

"Go down the mountain first."

As he spoke, Zhang Fan put away the golden iron box and woke up the Liu brothers.

Although there is no need to worry about Baihe Temple for the time being, Zhang Fan is now in Dongshan Province, and the big commotion in Luoxia Mountain will probably have a significant impact.

However, at the moment, he did not care about much else and took Jiang Lai and the Liu brothers down the mountain and returned to Luoxia Town.

Cultivating the holy fetus of gods and demons, the spirit becomes powerful and one does not want to sleep.

However, at this moment, Zhang Fan felt unprecedentedly tired.

Without a doubt, this was the toughest and most exhausting battle in his life.

As soon as he lay down on the bed, he fell into a deep sleep, and his long and lingering breathing echoed in the cold room.

clang... clang... clang...

Deep within the soul, the sound of heavy chains rang out again, and the incense that was like a cloud of fire was absorbed by the mysterious figure hidden in the darkness...

At this moment, rays of light flickered in the inner scene of the soul, as if it were a dream of the mysterious figure.

Under the bright sun in the sky, in the mountains.

The gurgling stream rushes down from a great height, splashing up waves.

Under a towering tree, a young man was sitting cross-legged. He was tall and thin, with long hair, barefoot, and torn clothes. He looked like a savage, with a piece of wild grass in his mouth.

Wow…

Just then, the stream splashed, and a young girl came over with her trouser legs rolled up, stepping on the water.

The young man slowly opened his eyes, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and when he saw the person coming, a bright look appeared in his eyes.

"You're here again."

"The method you practice is very special, maybe it can help me." The girl whispered.

"Unfortunately, I have reached a bottleneck and cannot break through. The only option I have is to kill people." The young man grinned and chuckled.

"for you."

At this moment, the girl took out an iron box from behind her and handed it to the young man, who was stunned for a moment.

"what?"

"I can help you..."

The young man paused for a moment, but did not answer. Instead, he asked, "You don't even know my name..."

"I know."

The girl whispered a name.

"Three corpses!"

"That's just a Taoist name. I'll tell you in secret..." The young man lowered his voice and said, "My last name is Zhang. What's yours?"

"The surname is Zhang..."

The girl seemed to be thinking about something, chewing on the surname, and only spoke after a long while.

"My name is Jiang Lai!"
