I am devoted to the Tao

Chapter 291 Kong Ming: I can’t take the blame for Ziyun
The Dao Fruit World of Qingxiao Immortal King is vast and boundless.

Towering mountains stand tall, and huge waterfalls cover the mountains completely. As far as the eye can see, all you can see is a vast expanse of white.

The vast plains are lush and green, with towering ancient trees everywhere and rivers of various sizes crisscrossing.

The whole world seemed to be filled with nothing but trees and water, a vibrant scene. There was no sign that this was a special area where a powerful ninth-level expert like Yan Hongwei could shed blood.

As soon as Jiang Chuan arrived outside the Dao Fruit World of Qingxiao Immortal King, he saw the three Dao masters.

He had participated in the Taisu Immortal Meeting and the Shangcang Palace meetings, but no matter which time, the three masters were absent.

Now the three masters have all arrived.

Even the Blood Sea Demon Sect's leader Gu Baichuan, who rarely appears in public, the Mingwang Palace's leader Master Zhenyong, the Tiandao Pavilion's leader Feng Yuan, the Haoran Palace's leader Zhang Sheng and others showed up here.

"Abbot, is it the remnant spirit of Bai Qingtian that's causing trouble?"

Jiang Chuan flew out of the Leisha Divine Boat and landed beside Abbot Kongming, Elder Jingzhen and others.

Abbot Kong Ming's expression was solemn: "It's hard to say. We need to go in and investigate before we can know."

At this moment, a slightly angry voice sounded.

"This dead cat is here too, so let this dead cat go in first to investigate!"

Jiang Chuan looked in the direction of the voice and saw a middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man wore a black scarf on his head, a loose blue cloth robe, and a white belt around his waist. His deep eyes were full of wisdom, as if he was a knowledgeable scholar in the secular world.

"Zhang Sheng, you bastard, you should be the first one to go in and investigate!"

Ancestor Ziyun raised his claws and gestured to Zhang Sheng, the Palace Master of Haoran Palace.

"Ancestor, why do you have a grudge against Palace Master Zhang?"

Jiang Chuan was very helpless. Why did he always meet people who had grudges against Patriarch Ziyun wherever he went?
"There's no grudge. It's just that when he was chasing Fairy Shi Qing of the Sword Palace, Tai Shan and I happened to run into him. I said, 'Who chases a sword cultivator to give him a book? Whoever follows such a fool will definitely have bad luck in the future.'"

"Ancestor."

"Do you also think I'm right? After listening to me, Shi Qing decisively rejected Zhang Sheng's pursuit."

"I think you weren't beaten to death, it's really the ancestors' blessing."

"."

I would rather demolish ten temples than ruin one marriage.

Jiang Chuan felt that Zhang Sheng had a good temper because he did not kill the Purple Cloud Patriarch directly.

"If it weren't for you damn cat!"

Zhang Sheng clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, wishing he could beat Ziyun Patriarch to death.

"Fellow Daoist Zhang, now is not the time to dwell on such a small grudge."

Wan Qiangu stepped in front of Zhang Sheng and said, "Once this matter is over, we can suppress this dead cat for a million years."

"About ten million years." Lu Qingshu, the headmaster of Lingxu City, spoke directly and increased the time tenfold.

Ziyun Patriarch shouted angrily: "You bunch of bastards, Jiangchuan, suppress them!"

"Abbot, ancestor, this is the cat of Bodhi Temple, you should come forward." Jiang Chuan looked at Abbot Kongming.

In a one-on-one situation, Jiang Chuan is not afraid of any cultivator below the level of Xuxian.

But what is the situation now?
The demon soul of Bai Qing, the thirteenth realm celestial demon, may be very powerful and bring disaster to the world of Qingxiao Immortal King Daoguo!

It is very likely that Wan Qiangu, Zhang Sheng and others have already taken out top-grade Taoist weapons from the sect, and even the Haoran ruler that is said to have been left by the Sage of Literature may have been brought over.

If he really did fight, Jiang might be beaten up!
"You should bear the consequences of Ziyun's misfortune." Abbot Kongming said as he patted Jiangchuan's shoulder.

Elder Jingzhen also jokingly said, "Pressure is motivation. It's a good thing for young people to take more blame."

Jiangchuan: "."

What does it mean that taking more blame is a good thing?
Is it Old Ancestor Ziyun’s fault?

[Half a day later, Taoist Yuan Heng, the Eternal Demon Lord, and Fang Qingting still hadn't arrived.]

[Under Shang Wuji's suggestion, the Three Daos finally decided to send four teams into the Qingxiao Immortal King Dao Fruit World to explore.]

[The Immortal Path, the Demonic Path, the Outer Path, and the three great dynasties each sent five cultivators.]

You are assigned to the Outer Dao team, along with Sword Palace Deputy Palace Master Cheng Ye, Haoran Palace Palace Master Zhang Sheng, and Tiandao Pavilion Deputy Master Li Ren and Elder Jingzhen, who worked with you to slay the remaining soul of Huang Chong in Jiuyuan Prison. You will enter the Dao Fruit World of Qingxiao Immortal King from the due west.

"Roar!"

As soon as Jiang Chuan flew into the Daoguo world, he heard a roar like the sound of a huge bell.

A twenty-meter-long golden python and a more than ten-meter-long green python were fighting in the turbulent river, and the blood soon dyed the river red.

"Has the Daoguo world of Immortal King Qingxiao really become a special area?" Elder Jingzhen frowned slightly.

"Due to changes in the laws of heaven and earth, certain areas will become unsuitable for living creatures."

Zhang Sheng stared at the two giant pythons that were still fighting, his eyes flickering.

"If creatures in special areas want to survive, they have to adapt to the special area. But I can't see any difference between these two pythons and pythons from the outside world."

"Daoyou Yan Hongwei would be seriously injured only if she went deep into it. It is possible that the special area only occupies a part of the Daoguo world." Cheng Ye expressed his guess.

"We'll find out if we investigate further." As Jiang Chuan spoke, he used the Star Spirit's Light to fly towards the depths of the Daoguo world.

Zhang Sheng, Cheng Ye and others hurried to follow.

The deeper you go, the more lakes and rivers you see, almost one river every five miles and one lake every ten miles.

After flying over 30,000 miles, Jiangchuan and the other four saw that everything they could see was a complete swamp.

The rolling green waves cover the yellow-brown soil. Tall trees stand in the waves, with their branches and leaves stretching towards the sky.

"The deeper I go into the Daoguo world, the more oppressive I feel, as if a mountain is pressing down on my heart."

Li Rensong, wearing a purple robe and with a weathered face, spoke in a serious tone.

"I want to deduce, but it feels like there's a fog blocking me from seeing the source of everything."

Jiangchuan, Elder Jingzhen and others all looked solemn.

Tiandao Pavilion is famous in the Qingyuan Realm for deducing the secrets of heaven, and even Li Rensong, the deputy head, cannot deduce it.

There are only two possibilities.

The first type is that there are also monks who are proficient in deducing the secrets of heaven and concealing the secrets of heaven.

The second type is that the opponent is too strong, and Li Rensong is like an ant under a tree, blinded by a leaf and unable to see the sky.

After flying forward for nearly a thousand miles, the devastated mountains and rivers appeared in the eyes of Jiangchuan and the other four.

Ancient trees were uprooted by the aftermath of the powerful magic power, their branches and leaves were shattered, and their trunks turned into sawdust, floating on the water.

"It seems that this is the place where the Taoist friends from Wanmu Immortal Palace are in danger."

Elder Jingzhen's consciousness kept scanning the surroundings, and after a moment, he spoke again.

"How strange! Is it that the Immortal King's Dao Fruit is too profound, or has my soul been eroded by the special area? Why haven't I noticed anything unusual?"

[It's not just Elder Jingzhen; you, Zhang Sheng, Li Rensong, and the others haven't noticed anything unusual.]

[After a brief conversation, you continue to delve deeper into the Dao Fruit World.]

[Half a day later, you and the teams that entered the Daoguo World from the other three directions successfully met up in front of a large mountain in the center of the world.]

[Through conversation, you discover that the situation you five are facing is not much different from that of the other three teams.]

[Neither of you encountered any danger. You both felt a sense of oppression as you went deeper. The only difference is that you saw the battlefield where the Wanmu Dao Palace was attacked.]

[After discussion among the twenty of you, you finally decided to leave the Daoguo World and go to consult Yan Hongwei and other elders and disciples of the Wanmu Dao Palace.]

[After flying out of the Daoguo World, you just reunited with Abbot Kongming and the others when you saw a young man.]

The young man looked to be about seventeen or eighteen years old, wearing a black robe embroidered with silver-white runes. His facial features were very ordinary when viewed individually, but when taken together, he looked extremely handsome.

The black eyes were like a pitch-black abyss, extremely deep, and carrying a hint of vicissitudes that could not be concealed.

He was not tall, but standing here, he looked like a demon star that had cut through time and space from ancient times, making people tremble with fear.

Looking at Leng Yunsong, An Yunyi and the others trembling respectfully behind the young man, Jiang Chuan thought to himself, "Is this the Eternal Demon Lord? So powerful! With such might, he must be a supreme immortal. I wonder who is stronger, Shen Nanxing or not?"

"What are the results of your investigation?"

The Ancient Demon Lord glanced at the returning crowd. His voice was cold and emotionless, as if the resurrection of Bai Qingtian the demon was an insignificant matter to him.

Huangquan Demon Sect's leader Liu Junming stepped forward and replied, "Demon Lord, this investigation..."

Liu Junming reported the findings of your exploration of the Dao Fruit World to the Eternal Demon Lord and the many head and elder sects of the Three Paths.

[I heard that you didn't encounter any threats, nor did you notice any changes in the laws of heaven and earth. You just felt a sense of oppression.]

[The Eternal Demon Lord summoned Bai Mengqiu to inquire about how the elders and disciples of the Wanmu Dao Palace were almost wiped out in the Qingxiao Immortal King Dao Fruit World.]

Bai Mengqiu said that after they entered the Daoguo world, the water waves seemed to come alive, transforming into soldiers holding long spears and attacking them like an overwhelming force.

[Even if a soldier is destroyed, he will be reborn quickly.]

[If Yan Hongwei hadn't intervened, they would have surely died.]

After listening to this, the Eternal Demon Lord pondered for a moment before speaking again, telling Leng Yunsong to go find Yan Hongwei.

A sense of unease arises in you.

[Why do Bai Mengqiu and other elders and disciples of the Wanmu Dao Palace encounter attacks when they go deep into the city, but you are safe and sound?]

You think that by personally experiencing and meeting Yan Hongwei in this special place, you might learn something. You choose to return to the Wanjin Xianwang Daoguo world with Leng Yunsong to search for Yan Hongwei.

[Two hours later, you and Leng Yunsong will return to the Wanjin Immortal King's Dao Fruit World.]

[As soon as you arrived at the Central Rift Valley of the World, you smelled a pungent smell of blood.]

You and Leng Yunsong exchanged glances, thinking to yourself that things were not looking good, and you all crowded together, heading down into the rift valley.

Soon, mutilated corpses embedded in the rock face came into view.

[These corpses come from many major forces, including the three paths.]

You continue to move deeper into the rift, desperate to find a survivor and learn what happened.
