Xiuxian: I use magnetic fields to prove my truth

Chapter 305 Those who disobey my decree deserve to be executed.

Mu Zhuosha then recounted the story of the Great Illusion Demon Lord, the leader of the demonic path, hiding in Qingyun Mountain, and added, "The sword lights just now must have been from the people of the Hongfa Daoist Temple who found this place."

The sect leader and Xu Jingfeng were utterly shocked and said, "You should have told me sooner, so we could have been prepared."

Mu Zhuosha smiled bitterly: "This is a conflict between the leaders of the demonic path and the immortal path. We are caught in the middle, just ants under the feet of two divine elephants. What preparations can we make?"

“I’m afraid that this will alert the devil and bring trouble upon myself.”

The sect leader and Xu Jingfeng knew that she was right, so they did not argue too much. They simply said, "Since things have come to this, we can only leave it to fate. Why don't we go and take a look at the back mountain?"

The three of them then headed towards the back of the mountain.

Before long, they arrived at the front of the Great Illusion Demon Lord's wooden house and found that many people had already gathered there.

First came the Great Illusion Demon Lord, who looked like an old farmer, and his many disciples behind him, including Bai Yujing, Lin Xue, Hu Tingyuan, and Wei Wushang.

The Great Illusion Demon Lord sat on a self-made bamboo chair and smiled calmly at Bai Mei and the others, saying, "I have been waiting for you fellow Daoists for quite some time. Please have a seat."

He pointed to seven bamboo chairs in front of him, all made by himself. The chairs were arranged around a wooden table with eight cups of tea on it.

Clearly, in the eyes of the Great Illusion Demon Lord, only the eight of them were qualified to sit at the table and share a cup of tea.

Seeing that the Great Illusion Demon Lord was calm and fearless, and even seemed to be taking the initiative, Bai Mei and the others felt increasingly like they were losing control.

Jiang Tao winked at his fellow disciples, reminding them to pay attention to the Great Illusion Demon Lord's right side, where there was an inconspicuous little tortoise shell.

The tortoise shell didn't look particularly special, but the seven True Lords were all experts in this field. They could tell at a glance that it was a protective treasure made from the Sea Eye Mystic Tortoise and forcibly shrunk.

The seven immediately understood that what Bai Yujing had said was true. The Great Illusion Demon Lord had this treasure protecting him, and their plan to kill him in one fell swoop and cut off his possibility of demonic subjugation had become a pipe dream.

All seven of them sat down at the table.

Bai Mei said, "Fellow Daoist has lived next door to us for a long time, but it is a pity that we only have the opportunity to sit down and have a chat today."

The Great Illusion Demon Lord laughed and said, "If it weren't for this treasure in my hand, you might not be willing to have a heart-to-heart talk with me. Why bother with such pretense?"

Bai Mei sighed, "We never wanted to be enemies with you, fellow Daoist. It is you who wanted to drag the entire cultivation world into the abyss. We have no choice but to fight back."

"Fellow Daoist also comes from the cultivation world. How can you bear to let the cultivation world be invaded by the Demon Abyss? Although we cultivate to seek longevity, we cannot defy the heavens. Since your lifespan is coming to an end, why do you still resist stubbornly?"

The Great Illusion Demon Lord sneered, "What does the cultivation world have to do with me? Whether the cultivation world still exists after I die is of no concern to me."

"You keep saying you're thinking of the cultivation world, why don't you give me the treasures for your breakthrough so I can achieve the Nascent Soul stage? Then I'll naturally not allow another Demon Abyss to appear in the Western Continent."

"You can't even part with a mere treasure, yet you insist on making me sacrifice my life to ensure the so-called peace of the cultivation world. You are utterly hypocritical."

The kind and gentle air on Bai Mei's face vanished instantly, and his expression turned cold.

Jiang Tao said, "Does that mean there's no room for negotiation, fellow Daoist?"

"Do you really think that a mere Xuan Turtle shell can protect you? There are already seventeen Demon Abysses in the Western Continent. What difference would one more make? Fellow Daoist, don't make a mistake for yourself."

The Great Illusion Demon Lord sarcastically remarked, "Jiang Tao, don't talk big to me. When I was roaming the Western Continent, you hadn't even started cultivating yet."

"Do you think I don't know that the Nascent Soul True Monarchs of the Dharma Propagation Temple are guarding the Demon Abyss, and they are also corrupted by the Demon Abyss. Only by constantly rotating them can the influence be eliminated."

“Now, the twenty-three True Lords have taken turns guarding the seventeen Demon Abysses, which is the limit for eliminating the corruption of the Demon Abysses. If there is one more, this limit will be broken immediately. The Dharma Propagation Center will either have to give up guarding the Demon Abysses, allowing the entire Western Continent to be corrupted, or it will have to ask the Central Continent for help.”

"Those Dao Palaces in Zhongzhou are full of wolves and tigers. They won't be able to be dealt with by just a few treasures."

The seven felt a chill run down their spines. They hadn't expected the Great Illusion Demon Lord to know so much about their situation; he had clearly done his homework and was confident he could control them. All seven felt the current situation was extremely difficult to handle.

Seeing the solemn expressions on his old adversaries' faces, the Great Illusion Demon Lord felt even more smug. He stood up and paced along the edge of the cliff, saying, "Moreover, you not only have external enemies but also internal troubles. Have you forgotten Zhou Qing?"

"If we make a move here, the Qingyun Sect will surely be destroyed. How could Zhou Qing tolerate that?"

"With ferocious enemies outside and Demon Abyss and Zhou Qing inside, I'd like to see how you deal with this."

After saying that, he looked up at the sky and burst into laughter.

"Seek death!"

A cold voice interrupted the Great Illusion Demon Lord's laughter.

He looked around warily, but couldn't tell who had made the sound.

Everyone else recognized Zhou Qing's voice.

Everyone's spirits lifted, and they thought to themselves, "Zhou Qing has also arrived here?"

The seven men with white eyebrows thought to themselves, "The seven brothers of the dojo are ordered to guard Zhou Qing, how could they let him leave the dojo?"

As everyone was filled with doubt and surprise, a dark hole the size of a bowl suddenly appeared on the edge of the cliff.

Through the hole, everyone saw a powerful young cultivator sitting cross-legged on a large blue stone at the mouth of the waterfall, with a gentle and beautiful woman serving him behind him.

The young cultivator remained indifferent, as if the Heavenly Dao, which treats all things as straw dogs, coldly watched them.

"Zhou Qing!"

A chorus of exclamations rose and fell from the crowd, some in surprise, some in delight, and some with barely suppressed apprehension.

Zhou Qing said, "The Great Illusion Demon Lord is arrogant and domineering, disobeys my teachings, occupies my temple, and violates my decrees. His crimes are unforgivable and he should be executed as a warning to others."

After he finished speaking, everyone saw a hand that looked like it was carved from white jade stretch out, and a blue light poured out from between its fingers, shooting straight at the Great Illusion Demon Lord.

A giant divine tortoise appeared around the Great Illusion Demon Lord, but it vanished in an instant.

boom!
The Great Illusion Demon Lord's body crashed to the ground.

The seven white-browed figures rushed forward to check, only to find that the Great Illusion Demon Lord had a hole about the thickness of a thumb between his eyebrows, and looking through the hole, it was completely empty.

All brain tissue has been broken down by gamma rays.

A chill ran through the seven white-browed men, and their faces betrayed their shock.

They hurriedly turned to look at Zhou Qing, only to see the hole slowly closing, with just a piece of paper drifting down.

Bai Mei took the note, which read: "The seven of you, along with the members of the Qingyun Sect, come to the Daoist temple to pay your respects."

The seven people exchanged glances, their minds filled with confusion.

They simply couldn't understand what had just happened.

Saintess Xianglian had just met Zhou Qing, so she was the first to react. She hesitated and asked, "Does that look like the entrance to the waterfall at Daoyun Peak?"
