Chapter 100: Using the Devouring Ancestral Talisman to Cultivate the "Red Emperor Fire Emperor Qi"

For Zhao Shuang, who practiced the "Green Emperor Wood Emperor Art", catching the little rabbit, no, the Nine-bend Spirit Ginseng, was extremely easy.

There was no need to use the methods and means mentioned by Master Xuan Gu Xiao Cha. All he needed to do was to release a little bit of the aura of the Green Emperor Wood Emperor Art, and the Nine-Bend Spirit Ginseng would happily run into Zhao Shuang's arms, and then he would happily take him away to retrieve the original body.
Therefore, when Wan Sangu and Wan Tianming saw the little rabbit in Zhao Shuang's arms and smelled the faint and refreshing medicinal fragrance it exuded, their faces changed at the same time.

As for Tian Wuzi and others, their expressions became even uglier.

The other Jindan stage cultivators looked at each other in confusion, completely unable to understand what the rabbit in Zhao Shuang's arms meant.

It was actually able to scare Wan Sangu, Wan Tianming, aunt and nephew, Tian Wuzi and others into this state.

Although they didn't know what it was, they could vaguely guess that it must be a treasure or elixir that could greatly increase Zhao Shuang's strength.

The fastest way to greatly increase Zhao Shuang's strength is to condense the Nascent Soul and advance to the Nascent Soul stage. When they thought about it this way, they understood.

In his eyes and heart, he was extremely envious of Zhao Shuang.

If it were other cultivators in the late Jindan stage, they might join forces to deal with them in the next Ice and Fire Path.

But Zhao Shuang had killed Liudao Jisheng, the number one demon, a great cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage, and now the number one in the Chaos Star Sea. Even if they had a hundred guts, they wouldn't dare to do it.

Therefore, they could only look at the "rabbit" in Zhao Shuang's arms with envy.

As for Zhao Shuang, he was naturally aware of everyone's thoughts, but he didn't say much. He just continued to caress and play with the Nine-Bend Spirit Ginseng in his arms, with no intention of paying attention to others.

I have to say, this Nine-bend Spiritual Ginseng is really fun to eat.

In this way, time passed, and Man Huzi also came with a big laugh.

"Haha, Brother Zhao, you really got here first."

Man Huzi also discovered the Nine-bend Spiritual Ginseng in Zhao Shuang's arms. He was shocked and then laughed.

He didn't seem to be worried about what Zhao Shuang would do to him after he advanced to the Nascent Soul stage.

Instead, he looked at Aunt Wan San and his nephew with a gloating look.

"Brother Man, why are you so slow? Did you come across something good?"

Hearing this, Zhao Shuang chuckled and asked. He could ignore other people, but he would naturally not ignore Man Huzi, a fellow practitioner who gave him his most favored disciple and concubine.

"Haha, I really can't hide it from Brother Zhao,"

"The barbarian bearded man continued to laugh, and said with some pride,
"I killed a snow toad near the longevity fruit tree. The inner elixir of this monster is of great benefit to my Heaven-supporting Magic Art."

"I see. Congratulations to Brother Man on achieving great success in his magical skills. When the time comes, maybe you can take the opportunity to break through to the late Nascent Soul stage. Then, the Demonic Path will have another late Nascent Soul stage master."

Zhao Shuang smiled.

"It depends on luck! Even with this longevity fruit, my life span is not much. Whether I can break through to the late Nascent Soul stage or not is actually not very meaningful. When the time comes, I hope Brother Zhao will take good care of these poor disciples."

Man Huzi laughed heartily, not caring at all about the end of his lifespan.

"Of course, don't worry, brother." Zhao Shuang agreed. Although he didn't like the classic scene, he didn't have any objections.

He had a good impression of Man Huzi, a sensible man, and could ask him to help him deal with many things.

This is a good thing for him!
Although he has occupied the Holy Demon Island and become the number one in the demon world, there are not many people who truly join him, especially the Nascent Soul cultivators.

As for how sincere Man Huzi was, he didn't bother to care, as long as it was useful to him.

Just as the two were discussing the next plan of the Demonic Path.

In the direction of the giant mountain not far away, red and blue lights suddenly became brighter.

Then, the mountain wall near the entrance of the canyon cracked into two narrow passages in a sudden earthquake, leading directly into the interior of the canyon.

Outside the entrances of the two passages, there was a stone tablet about three or four feet high. One had "Xuan Jing Road" written on it, and the other had "Lava Road" and other ancient characters written on it.

Suddenly some of the closest monks walked over first.

But just outside the passage of the lava road, before anyone entered, there was a dizzying hot wind blowing in the face, making people immediately feel thirsty.

Outside the Xuanjing Road, there is white icy air constantly emerging from the inside, and there is a faint sound of strong wind and howling, which makes people feel chilly just looking at it.

"Brother Zhao, which one do you choose?"

Man Huzi asked with a smile.

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at Zhao Shuang, including Wan Sangu, Wan Tianming and others.
"Lava Road!"

Zhao Shuang also nodded with a smile.

Hearing this, Man Huzi grinned.

"Then I will be on the Xuanjing Road."

"it is good."

Zhao Shuang nodded and strode towards the lava road. As soon as one stepped into the passage, he would be immediately teleported to various preset locations in the Grand Canyon. The chance of being teleported together with others was very low, so basically few people would choose to travel together.

……

Hot winds blew towards him along the passage, making Zhao Shuang feel as if he were being roasted by a hot furnace. He looked forward intently.

The passage was only about two meters high, not very tall, but the dazzling red light faintly overflowing from the front was a bit shocking.

And with every step forward, the temperature seemed to rise a little.

"It's a good place to practice the 'Red Emperor Fire Emperor Qi'," Zhao Shuang chuckled, then he strode in while holding the little rabbit transformed from the Nine-bend Spirit Ginseng.

It’s not that he doesn’t want to fly, but because of the restrictions of Xutian Palace, the cultivators who enter the Ice and Fire Road cannot fly into the air. They can only rely on their feet to move forward slowly step by step.

He was no exception. If he forcibly resisted the restrictions in the Xutian Palace, even a Nascent Soul cultivator would be seriously injured or teleported away at best, or die on the spot at worst.

This kind of thing has happened before, so even Nascent Soul cultivators have to walk the path of ice and fire honestly.

The consequence of this was that cultivators who were transported a little further away would have to walk for days and nights without sleep to reach the end of the canyon. This was a significant challenge for Jindan-stage cultivators, as it was not something they could achieve solely through cultivation, but rather required the effects of their cold- and fire-resistant treasures.

At the same time, in addition to the harsh environment on the road, the natural monsters with ice and fire attributes gathered in the canyon are the biggest obstacle for them to pass this level safely.

Almost every time, a small number of them died at the hands of these evil spirits.

Of course, you also have to be careful of other cultivators, as you might be ambushed and robbed of your treasures by people with ill intentions along the way. This is a scene that is bound to happen on every Ice and Fire Road.

After all, the closer you get to the end of the canyon's teleportation array, the more likely you are to run into other cultivators. By stealing their cold-proof and fire-proof treasures, you can greatly increase your chances of survival. Presumably, some cultivators who can't hold out will inevitably take the risk and attack.

But for Zhao Shuang, these were not difficulties or troubles, but were of great benefit to him.
The rich fire-attributed spiritual energy and demonic spirits among them can be said to be the best supplements for practicing the "Red Emperor Fire Emperor Qi".

In order to devour it as quickly as possible without delaying the journey, Zhao Shuang chose to use the power of the Devouring Ancestral Talisman to absorb everything related to fire within a radius of 100 miles.

Therefore, among the cultivators near Zhao Shuang, one can say that he has good luck, but also bad luck. If he were not a cultivator practicing fire-attributed techniques, the difficulty would be greatly reduced.

If it is true essence and magic power in the body, it will be devoured by the ancestral talisman and released as devouring seeds, which will devour everything and eventually lead to death with hatred.

……

Therefore, Zhao Shuang not only had a smooth journey and passed through the lava road unimpeded, but also improved his practice of "Red Emperor Fire Emperor Qi" and was getting closer to condensing the Nascent Soul and advancing to the Nascent Soul stage.

But it was different for the others. The two Nascent Soul cultivators of Xinggong still opened the restrictions controlled by the Ice and Fire Road and killed many Core Formation cultivators.

Especially the Jindan stage cultivators of both the righteous and evil paths. If it weren't for the fact that Yuanying cultivators were extremely difficult to kill, and they were worried about getting Zhao Shuang, they would probably go even further.

This is an extremely simple stone hall, with an area of ​​fifty to sixty feet wide and a height of about seventy to eighty feet. In addition to a teleportation array in the middle, there are huge bluestone doors several feet high on each of the four sides.

At this time, all the doors were tightly shut, turning the place into a large prison cell. Inside the stone hall were dozens of stone tables and benches, all of which were unique and varied.

The first person to enter this stone hall was naturally Zhao Shuang, the number one person in Chaos Star Sea.

“First again.”

Zhao Shuang chuckled to himself, then found a place to sit cross-legged and wait for others.

Sure enough, compared to Zhao Shuang who was unharmed, the only one who was not hurt was Wan Sangu, a great cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage. Even Wan Tianming and Man Huzi suffered serious injuries and their faces turned pale.

I don’t know if it’s because of anger or because he’s seriously injured.

As for the Jindan stage cultivators, only a few late Jindan stage cultivators survived, while the other Jindan stage cultivators all died, without a single one being spared. It is conceivable how dangerous the Ice and Fire Island was this time.

For a moment, all the cultivators in the stone hall were filled with mixed feelings, but no one spoke a word.

To be precise, even when talking and conversing, they are just transmitting sounds to each other.

For example, Zhao Shuang and Man Huzi, two fellow practitioners, were discussing the Way of the Flesh, their discussion so pleasant that they seemed ready to drink three thousand cups of wine. Unfortunately, this wasn't the place for drinking; they had more important matters to attend to.

Not long after, the two Nascent Soul stage elders from the Law Enforcement Hall of Xinggong appeared in the teleportation array.

As soon as they appeared, all kinds of unfriendly looks were stared at them at the same time.

Especially Man Huzi, he glared at me, looking extremely angry. If it wasn't the wrong place, he would have fought fiercely and would have shown no mercy.

"Alas, I really don't know which fellow Daoist actually triggered some of the restrictions in the Ice and Fire Dao, causing great changes in the canyon. These restrictions are too powerful."

"We have been searching for a solution, but unfortunately, we have found nothing. This has caused our fellow cultivators to lose quite a few, right? We have failed in our duty this time. After this visit to Xutian Palace, we will return to apologize to the two Saint Lords and face the wall for over a hundred years to atone for our failure."

Under the unfriendly gazes of the crowd, the kind-looking old man was heartbroken and said with great sadness.

As soon as these words were spoken, all the cultivators from both the righteous and evil paths cursed this man in their hearts for being shameless.

With just a few light words, he tried to completely dismiss the matter, as if it had nothing to do with Xinggong.

However, this was also expected by the two. Even though everyone was staring at them with unfriendly eyes, no one took the initiative to step forward and question them.

As for Man Huzi, Wan Tianming and other Yuanying stage monsters, after glaring at them fiercely for a few times, they withdrew their gazes and continued to do their own things.

Zhao Shuang and Wan Sangu, one stroking the little rabbit in his arms and the other closing his eyes to rest, did not do anything because of this.

The two of them breathed a sigh of relief, smiled at each other, found a corner to sit down, and closed their eyes to rest.

When the time was up, the teleportation array in the middle of the stone hall disappeared.

Now there are only a dozen or so cultivators left in the stone hall. But at the same time the teleportation array disappeared, the stone doors on the four walls automatically rose up with a roar, revealing deep bluestone passages that led to an unknown place.

"Three of these four passages lead to a separate attic. Each attic contains something different, including 'ancient treasures', 'pills', 'gong techniques', and other relics left behind by ancient cultivators. However, each item is sealed with restrictions, and anyone can only take one item once. Once obtained, the person will be immediately teleported to the next level, 'Extreme Illusion'. As for the last passage, it leads directly to the next level. Anyone who enters it can only consider themselves unlucky and have wasted their trip. The restrictions here are a bit strange. The places the passages lead to are not fixed. Once a person enters one, they cannot exit the same way. If you don't want to venture into the Extreme Illusion, as long as you don't think about going to these attics to take treasures, stay in this stone hall for a while, and you will automatically be teleported out of Xutian Hall. I hope you will do your best to do so!"

As soon as the passage appeared, the kind-looking elder of the Star Palace stood up and explained,

But this time, the remaining cultivators just looked at him coldly and no one paid any attention to him anymore.

When the old man saw this scene, he seemed to have expected it and didn't care at all. He smiled slightly and closed his eyes again.

Since the cultivators who had come here were obviously unwilling to take the risk and return empty-handed, not long after he finished speaking, someone immediately strode towards one of the bluestone passages without saying a word.

After a moment, the man disappeared silently in the passage.

Someone took the lead, and other cultivators also set off.

Wan Sangu, Wan Tianming and others did the same and headed towards the passage.

Soon, the only people left in the entire stone hall were Man Huzi and Zhao Shuang, who were still eager to talk, and the two Nascent Soul elders of Xinggong.

"Brother Zhao, I'll go ahead and see if I can get anything good. When we meet again, we can continue our conversation about the Way of the Flesh Body..."

Man Huzi glared at the two Nascent Soul stage elders of Xinggong, then stood up and said with a smile.

"Okay, please do as you please, Brother Man."

Zhao Shuang nodded and smiled.
