Xiuxian: I use magnetic fields to prove my truth

Chapter 307 An unexpected gain
Such things often happen in the cultivation world: two rival sects, one of which wipes out the other, but unfortunately one of them goes missing.

The last disciple obtained some kind of opportunity, his cultivation level advanced by leaps and bounds, far surpassing that of his ancestors, and in the end, he wiped out the originally victorious sect.

Several True Lords of the Hongfa Daocheng were worried, and Zhou Qing would have the same concerns, so he simply eliminated the Hongfa Daocheng.

They certainly wouldn't sit idly by and wait to die, but considering Zhou Qing's unpredictable methods, they really had no chance of surviving from him.

This matter concerns the survival of the orthodox tradition, and the seven people could not help but be terrified.

Zhou Qing glanced at them and asked, "Before you set off, why did you specifically recall seven Nascent Soul True Monarchs to surround Dao Yun Peak? What was your intention?"

Bai Mei and the others felt a chill in their hearts, thinking to themselves, "He really is starting to settle old scores."

The seven were at a loss when Zhou Qing said, “I know your thoughts very well. If it were up to me, I would have to punish you. However, the ancestors of the Hongfa Daoist Temple have guarded the Demon Abyss for generations, and their merits outweigh their faults for the Western Continent. You have also made great contributions over the years. Since you did not let personal grudges interfere with public justice, I will not hold it against you.”

"I hope you will guard against arrogance and impetuosity in the future, and continue to be loyal to your duties."

The seven of them breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Of course, the Demon Abyss is the number one enemy in the cultivation world, and we dare not slack off in the slightest."

Zhou Qing nodded slightly and said, "I have an order. You should immediately convey this to all parts of the Western Continent, instructing all sects' Golden Core cultivators to cultivate diligently and strive to break through to the Nascent Soul stage as soon as possible."

"Furthermore, inform all sects that a grand competition will be held every three years in Wanxiang City. From each sect's disciples, the thirty best in each of the Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment stages will be selected to cultivate for a year in a secondary spiritual vein of the Dharma Propagation Center. Among the Golden Core True Persons, the ten best will be selected to enter the main spiritual vein for a year of cultivation."

The seven members of the White Eyebrows group were all taken aback. They thought to themselves, "Isn't this splitting up the resources of the Dharma Propagation Center?" Zhou Qing was in a stronger position than they were, so they couldn't say anything. However, there was one thing that made them extremely worried.

Seeing that the seven people hesitated to speak, Zhou Qing said, "Are you worried that this action will encourage a competitive spirit and increase the risk of cultivators in the Western Continent falling into demonic possession?"

Bai Mei and the others all said, "That's right."

Zhou Qing smiled and said, "It's alright, I will handle this matter myself."

All seven were greatly puzzled, thinking that being possessed by demons was an invasion by gods and demons from beyond the realm, something that cultivators could not possibly resolve.

Ignoring their confusion, Zhou Qing said to Nie Yunxi, "Bring the Seven Emotions Sect members here."

Nie Yunxi immediately headed down the mountain and soon brought back the remaining members of the Seven Emotions Sect, including five of the ten disciples, seven Golden Core elders, and dozens of Foundation Establishment disciples.

Zhou Qing looked at Bai Yujing at the front and said with a smile, "Brother Bai, we meet again."

Bai Yujing glanced at Zhou Qing with a complicated expression and said with a bitter smile, "We dare not address you as True Lord Tiantong. Now that all the members of the Seven Emotions Sect have fallen into your hands, and the Seven Emotions Sect is about to be destroyed, we have nothing more to say."

Zhou Qing shook his head and said, "I will not kill you."

Bai Yujing was taken aback and asked, "Would you allow the existence of our demonic path?"

Zhou Qing sneered, "What kind of demonic path are you? You are nothing but lowly dust beneath the feet of extraterrestrial demon gods, tainted with demonic aura, yet you dare to call yourselves the demonic path?"

"You are also human cultivators. The reason why you are not accepted by the immortal path is simply because you have been marked by the extraterrestrial demons and gods, becoming their bridgehead for infiltrating the cultivation world."

"Once you are freed from the clutches of the demon, you will return to being human."

"This is the rebirth I have given you; I hope you will cherish it."

After saying this, Zhou Qing's body was covered in golden light, and he entered a state that spanned two realms.

His physical body was still in the world of cultivation, but a projection formed in the Dao Heart World of the Demon Abyss. These two positions allowed him to communicate between the two worlds.

In Zhou Qing's eyes at that moment, each of Bai Yujing and the other members of the Seven Emotions Sect had a jet-black thread emerging from between their brows, passing through the barrier of the cultivation world, entering the Demon Abyss World, and then stretching endlessly upwards. That was where those terrifying demon gods resided.

Zhou Qing used golden light to slash at the black line in Bai Yujing, and the black line broke immediately.

Bai Yujing felt as if an invisible shackle had been lifted, and her whole body felt lighter.

To Zhou Qing's surprise, the black line did not show up after it broke, but instead changed direction and connected to his Dao Heart World.

He sensed that the world of his Dao Heart seemed to have become more solid and its scope had expanded, but the degree was still relatively small and difficult to discern.

He was overjoyed, thinking to himself, "I never expected there would be such a benefit."

It seems that Bai Yujing has transformed from a fish in the hands of the demon god into his fish.

Bai Yujing asked, "What did you do?"

Zhou Qing said, "No need to ask any more questions. Just focus on your cultivation from now on, atone for your past mistakes, and never cause trouble again."

Bai Yujing suddenly sensed an inexplicable and indescribable majesty emanating from Zhou Qing, which made him unconsciously want to submit and even made his heart tremble.

He quickly replied, "Bai Yujing will obey the decree!"

Zhou Qing then cut the black lines off Lin Xue, Wei Wushang, Hu Tingyuan, and the others.

All the broken black lines eventually transferred to his Dao Heart World.

Having intercepted the black lines on the bodies of more than a dozen Golden Core cultivators and dozens of Foundation Establishment demonic cultivators, Zhou Qing was finally able to clearly sense the changes in his Dao Heart World.

The scope of the Dao Heart World has indeed expanded, and the total length of the expansion is also much more solid than before.

These changes are all reflected in his golden light.

The golden light on his body was much thicker than before; what was once just over an inch had now grown to nearly three inches.

This unexpected gain delighted Zhou Qing.

The effect of the golden light is obvious: it allows him to traverse infinite distances and achieve long-range strikes. However, this method consumes too much energy, and he does not know how to quickly enhance the golden light.

Now he finally knows a way to enhance the golden light.

There are still many demons in the entire Western Continent, and quite a few immortals have also fallen into demonic ways. Once he implements the triennial battle tournament, the number of immortals targeted by the demon god will only increase.

He was able to intercept more and more black lines, and his golden light and the future of the Dao Heart World were limitless.

The only concern is that this will attract the attention of the demons.

But he couldn't worry about that now, since he had already attracted their attention.

Those guys can't break through the barrier and descend into this world yet. He should take advantage of this window of opportunity to strengthen his power so that he will have the resources to fight against them in the future.

The members of the Seven Emotions Sect felt relieved after Zhou Qing freed them from the demon god's shackles, and at the same time, they all felt an immense sense of awe and respect for Zhou Qing from the bottom of their hearts.

Everyone bowed respectfully to Zhou Qing before leaving Daoyun Peak.
