Full level of enlightenment: I achieved Daozu by ascending to the lower realm

"What are your plans for the next move?"

Ning Qi looked at the middle-aged man and asked curiously.

"Hmph, it will be late soon. Our demonic energy will blend in with the night, and they won't be able to detect it."

"When we get to them, that's when the slaughter begins."

The middle-aged man sneered, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

He was already exuding a faint killing intent.

Lin Fan watched him from the side and couldn't help but smile.

"Master, what should we do? We can't just follow them and kill people."

The spirit medicine, hidden within Ning Qi's body, couldn't help but ask.

"We'll make our move after they've all gone down and are engaged in a fierce battle with these people."

Ning Qi spoke to him using his divine sense.

"Oh, then we're going to be misunderstood by them."

Yao Ling listened to his words and quickly replied.

"No, I can handle that many people by myself."

"But with so many people, I can't possibly keep them all."

"Only by going down there, in the midst of the chaos, will I have a chance."

Ning Qi responded.

"Oh, I see."

Yao Ling then understood his intention.

"It's about time."

At this moment, the middle-aged man looked at the sky and spoke to the crowd.

"Shall we go and kill them?"

"My lord, we are ready."

"..."

The people behind him immediately asked questions.

They all looked eager to try.

"Okay, let's get ready to move in."

The middle-aged man nodded, then suddenly stood up.

Then, they began to explore down the mountain.

During this process, the people behind him also stood up and followed him down.

Ning Qi glanced at the group that had set off, and then followed them down the path.

They soon arrived at the mountain gate.

By this time, the sky had completely darkened.

After they concealed their demonic energy, the disciples of the mountain gate could no longer clearly see who they were.

"stop!"

As they approached the mountain gate, some disciples came to stop them from going any further.

"We are from the Myriad Swords Sect, and we've come to discuss something with you!"

The middle-aged man further concealed his demonic aura, then said with a smile.

"The Ten Thousand Swords Sect? Weren't you already wiped out by the demonic enemies?"

Why are there still so many people?

The disciple clearly knew something, and upon hearing this, he immediately became wary.

"That's right, we're from headquarters and we'd like to learn more about our situation."

The middle-aged man nodded, a hint of sincerity in his eyes.

"Have all your men leave; you can handle this alone."

The disciple was clearly being cautious and didn't intend for them all to come up.

Instead, they directly asked the middle-aged person to stop.

"Oh? Why?"

The middle-aged man looked at him and said coldly, "Do you doubt our abilities?"

A ruthless glint immediately appeared in those eyes.

"Hmph, stop talking nonsense and get out of my way!"

The disciple was also enraged and said angrily.

"puff!"

The next moment, the middle-aged man was only a few meters away from him.

With a simple raise of his hand, he pierced through the chest with a single palm strike.

Before the disciple could react, he looked down and saw that his chest had been punched through.

His eyes were filled with disbelief.

He clearly never imagined that he would be killed at the very gates of his own sect.

The body eventually gave way and collapsed to the ground.

"kill!"

As he fell to the ground, the middle-aged man waved his hand.

"kill!"

"..."

The crowd behind him shouted and charged forward.

Everyone wore a bloodthirsty expression, and the cold blades in their hands emitted chilling glints.

"Enemy attack!"

"Quickly, someone come here!"

"..."

The disciples in front of the mountain gate immediately realized what was happening.

They quickly ran up the mountain to call for help.

"Whoosh!"

"call out!"

"..."

Immediately, several people began to release signal flares.

One after another, streaks of red light shot straight into the starry sky.

Immediately afterwards, dozens of figures rushed down the mountain towards him.

Each of them held a weapon in their hand, glaring angrily at the crowd below.

"Master, what do we do?"

Yao Ling quickly asked.

"Okay, let's get started."

Ning Qi showed no intention of holding back, and continued, "However, we'll have to wait a little longer."

"it is good!"

Yao Ling knew he had a plan, so she felt relieved.

Wait patiently for Ning Qi to make his move.

"what!"

"boom!"

"..."

While he was observing the battle, some people had already begun to take action.

When the two sides met, it was like enemies meeting, their eyes blazing with hatred.

They began to fight each other without any mercy.

In an instant, the stench of blood filled the air, and mangled corpses and severed limbs flew everywhere.

Trees and rocks began to be affected, and intact ancient trees were cut down one by one.

The boulder was also shattered by the shock.

"Master, shall we make our move?"

"Their people are clearly not strong enough."

Looking at the battle unfolding before him, Yao Ling couldn't help but ask.

"Yes, the time is about right."

Ning Qi nodded and turned his gaze forward.

At this moment, all the men in black had rushed down and were engaged in a fierce battle with the disciples.

Both sides were so engrossed in the fight that they didn't even notice his presence.

"boom."

At this moment, Ning Qi suddenly made a move, killing several men in black in front of him with a single sword strike.

They didn't even have time to react before they were decapitated.

"puff."

"what!"

Ning Qi attacked from behind, killing these people without any chance to resist.

Many people didn't even know what was happening before they became victims of his sword.

"you……"

"You are a traitor!"

After Ning Qi killed someone, he was finally discovered.

"I have never been one of your people, so how can you call me a traitor?"

Ning Qi asked with a cold smile.

He didn't stop there either; he killed him with a single sword strike.

"kill!"

"That bastard is a liar!"

"Kill him!"

The commotion he caused immediately attracted the attention of many people.

They all rushed over, ready to fight Ning Qi to the death.

Unfortunately, they were no match for Ning Qi.

In the blink of an eye, Ning Qi had killed more than a dozen people.

The ground was littered with mutilated corpses and severed limbs.

"You bastard, you lied to us!"

By this time, the middle-aged man finally realized that something was wrong.

"Oh? You only find out now? Isn't it too late?"

Ning Qi coldly laughed and said, "You beasts of the demon race deserve to be killed by everyone."

"Kill!" The middle-aged man forced back the people who were attacking him with a single sword strike.

He then suddenly attacked, rushing towards Ning Qi.

At this point, he had already made up his mind to kill Ning Qi.

The people behind him were not even a concern to him.

"call."

Ning Qi took a deep breath and suddenly circulated his immortal power.

The surge of pure immortal energy drew the attention of everyone present.

"This is... an immortal!"

"We're saved!"

"The immortals have helped us fight against the demons."

"..."

The disciples below exclaimed in surprise, their faces showing signs of relief.

Having just fought, they already knew the gap between themselves and the demons.

It's simply impossible to beat them.

Just when they were about to be wiped out, Ning Qi made his move.

They launched a sneak attack from behind, killing many of the men in black, and then held off their leader.

This gave everyone a lifeline.

"kill."

When the middle-aged man saw Ning Qi unleash his immortal power, he immediately felt that he had been deceived.

Enraged, they launched a full-scale attack.

He charged forward like a ferocious beast.

"puff!"

However, just when everyone thought they were about to engage in a fierce battle, an unexpected scene unfolded.

Ning Qi effortlessly beheaded the middle-aged man with a single sword strike.

His head was separated from his body, and his corpse fell downwards.

It finally landed on the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.

Throughout the entire process, he never knew what Ning Qi's true strength was.

They didn't even know who he was.

"Thank you, Immortal."

"Welcome, Immortal."

"..."

Upon seeing this, everyone paid their respects to Ning Qi.

Each person's eyes were filled with awe.

"Where is your leader?"

Ning Qi looked at the disciples below and asked in a deep voice.

So many demons have come here, yet their leader is nowhere to be seen.

If it weren't for his intervention, they would have been completely wiped out.

"Immortal, our leader was ambushed by the demons and is still recuperating on the mountain..."

"Immortal, please save our leader!"

"..."

Upon hearing his question, the disciples below immediately began to respond.

Each of them wore a hopeful expression, hoping that Ning Qi could help rescue their leader.

"Oh? So, these demons have been attacking you for a while now."

"Knowing that your leader was injured, that's why we came to ambush you."

Ning Qi listened to their words and thought of something.

"Yes, our leader was injured when he helped the branch of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect."

"The branch of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect has been destroyed, and we have been on high alert for the past few days."

"..."

After hearing Ning Qi's words, they all began to respond.

After listening to their explanation, Ning Qi finally understood what was going on.

"Okay, lead the way, I'll check on his condition."

Ning Qi nodded, then stepped onto the stone steps and asked them to lead the way.

"Immortal, please."

Several disciples approached him and invited him to join them on their journey.

He soon followed a few people up the mountain.

When they arrived at a bamboo house on the back mountain, they saw their leader in the side room.

At this moment, his face was dark and gloomy, and his whole body was emanating black energy.

This reaction is clearly due to being corrupted by demonic energy.

"They've been possessed by demonic energy."

The spirit medicine landed on Ning Qi's shoulder, its expression turning solemn.

"Yes, that's right."

Ning Qi nodded, then turned his gaze to the helmsman and said to the others, "He can still be saved. You may all step back."

"Yes!"

"..."

Upon hearing this, the disciples quickly agreed and then hurriedly withdrew.

Their faces were full of worry, but after all, he was a celestial being from Ningqi City, and they dared not disobey his wishes.

"Master, how do you plan to save him?"

Yao Ling became curious.

"What's so difficult about that?"

Ning Qi smiled and said confidently, "I have magic power, I can just help him absorb it."

"Oh right, how could I forget about that?"

Yao Ling clapped his hands and said with a smile, "Master, he has truly met a benefactor."

"Alright, keep an eye on the people here for me."

"I'll help him."

Ning Qi pointed to the door and then told him to go and watch the door.

"it is good."

Yao Ling quickly agreed and then headed towards the door.

Ning Qi then focused his attention on the helmsman in front of him.

He stretched out his hands and then channeled a wisp of demonic energy.

Immediately, chilling demonic energy began to circulate around him.

Under his control, it suddenly surged toward the helmsman on the bed below.

"呲呲!"

Upon contact with his body, it emitted a series of ear-piercing burning sounds.

However, Ning Qi did not stop. Instead, he controlled his demonic energy and poured it directly into the leader's body.

After his demonic energy entered his body, it began to suddenly devour the demonic energy within him.

"call!"

After half an hour of refining and absorbing, Ning Qi breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Master, how is it?"

Yao Ling quickly came over and asked.

His eyes were full of worry.

"It's all over now."

Ning Qi glanced at the helmsman on the bed and called out to the door, "Come in, everyone. Your helmsman is alright now."

"Yes, Immortal!"

"Immortal, our sect leader..."

Several disciples stepped forward, looking at him with worried expressions.

"It's alright, but you need to rest overnight."

“If you help him infuse spiritual energy using spirit stones, he will wake up in about an hour.”

Ning Qi looked at the group of people and then gave them serious instructions.

"Yes."

"Go, get those top-grade spirit stones."

The disciples quickly got to work.

"No need, use my spiritual essence."

As Ning Qi spoke, he tossed one of his storage bags to them: "Take this. It should last for more than an hour, enough time for him to wake up."

"Alright, thank you, Immortal."

Several disciples took his storage bag and then spoke.

"I'll go outside and wait for him. When he wakes up, I'll tell him to come find me."

Ning Qi nodded, and then left the bamboo house.

After he left, he went directly to the edge of a cliff where there was a cave.

Standing here, gazing into the distance, all you can see are continuous mountain ranges.

There is a faint sense of spiritual energy surging within these mountains.

“Master, this is a good place too.”

Yao Ling stood on his shoulder, and couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion.

"Yes, if our True Martial Spirit Realm also had such spiritual energy, our overall strength could also be improved."

Ning Qi sighed, then turned his gaze in one direction.

"Master, tell me, what is the purpose of these demons?"

Yao Ling also seemed to realize something and couldn't help but ask.

"Then that has nothing to do with us."

"What I need to guarantee is that they won't interfere with my trip to the border sea battlefield."

"These dozen or so regions, and countless others in the lower realms, are invaded by demons every day."

"But a new one will also be born next."

Ning Qi looked into the distance, then continued, "We just need to take care of ourselves; we don't need to worry about others."

"Master, do you think that since none of these demons have returned, their people might come back?"

Suddenly, Yao Ling remembered something and quickly asked. (End of Chapter)
