Cursed Mountains and Seas

Chapter 414 Conflict! The Madman Hidden Dragon, Immortals Compete for the Throne
In the immortal realm outside the wall, Wang Cheng, one of the two patriarchs of alchemy, was immediately promoted to the manufacturer and general agent of the [Dragon Tiger Yin Yang Alchemy].

Fengzhou Shanren, who comprehended the [Joyful Zen Method] from it, is a first-level agent, and Yuxian'er, who learned the Joyful Zen from him, is a second-level agent.

The three of them quietly formed a pyramid-shaped distribution structure.

Wang Cheng also thoughtfully activated the power of the Five Emperors' Golden Coin Sword, granting Yu Xian'er, the top salesperson, a small commission rate, allowing her to exert more initiative.

Then he began to secretly receive the fox fairy's insights and understanding of the "Golden Chamber Techniques of the Bedchamber" and the principles of Yin and Yang accumulated over hundreds of years.

"The Record of Nourishing Nature and Prolonging Life", "The Method of Replenishing Essence and Nourishing the Brain", and "The Yellow-Lao Red Seal Longevity Technique".
Huh, there are even these poses? I've never seen anything like the "opening jade bottle," "ironing," "scallop," "golden archway," or "spider cave" poses before.

Tsk tsk, no wonder she's a fox spirit who's lived for hundreds of years; she's truly skilled at this art.

I think the interest earned from just Yu Xian'er alone is more than enough to last any amount of time; it's simply impossible to finish it.

These may not be specific external alchemy techniques for achieving immortality, but they directly point to the fundamental principles of Yin and Yang.

Through collective wisdom, every insight gained from different immortals who have ascended to immortality has greatly contributed to the improvement of the internal alchemy method.

At this moment, a group of second-generation immortals surrounding Wang Cheng stepped forward and respectfully paid their respects:
"Aunt Xian'er!"

"Junior Sister Jade Immortal!"

Second-generation rich kids who use the former title usually have male backers, while those who use the latter title usually have female backers.

As for those mixed claims about relationships, just think about the ninety-seven or ninety-eight possible combinations of immortal scum, and everyone will have their own opinion.

They all chattered with Yu Xian'er, explaining the harrowing events that had just transpired, their words all seeking comfort from their aunt/master.

Especially after seeing that alluring body behind the gauze curtain, the sound of swallowing saliva grew louder and louder.

"Gulp!" "Gulp!"

Although they had boasted so much before, when faced with a Celestial Immortal who was only one step away from the second rank, none of them dared to be rude. They all looked at her expectantly, begging her to give them their bodies.

Yu Xian'er glanced past them and looked at the "Tiger God" who had returned empty-handed behind them, her white jade-like brows furrowing slightly.

"It's a miracle that Tiger God didn't lose any parts after encountering this group of little devils. His previous mission to hunt down a few escapees has naturally fallen through."

They were ambushed by the Zhao fleet, but they managed to bring everyone back safely, which can be considered a great achievement.

If anything happens to them while they're with me, given my close relationship with my fellow disciples, I won't necessarily suffer serious damage, but I'll have to compensate each of them with a new child.

"Fine!"

Raising her delicate hand, she pulled out her natal magic weapon, the Nine Yin Soul-Hooking Banner, from the air and casually swung it, trapping all the second-generation elites inside.

The pavilion within the banner was attended to by nine stunningly beautiful courtesans and dancers.

"Your aunt has important business to attend to today, so I will temporarily impart to you a wonderful method that I have just acquired. You can study and comprehend it yourselves."

"Whoever practices well will be rewarded with many different poses by your aunt in the future."

Upon hearing this, the second-generation members were greatly excited and rushed into the banner one after another.

"Aunt, it's a deal."

Even the group of second-generation women led by Shi Jiu'er were no exception.

After all, in a place like the Immortal Realm where humans are the main food source, how could there be any talk of male chastity and female virtue? Depravity and indulgence are commonplace.

Of course, consider the numerous passages in the Book of Songs where people arbitrarily choose days for their trysts in the wild: "In the wild lies a dead deer, wrapped in white reeds. A young woman, yearning for love, is seduced by a handsome man."

These "immortals," who were expelled during the pre-Qin period, may have felt that they were merely continuing the ancient traditions.

In short, the market potential of the supplementary practice method, "Joyful Meditation," is far greater than Wang Cheng imagined.

Just as he was feeling elated about his soaring career, he suddenly heard a seductive and alluring call:

"Tiger God, come up to the bed too."

"The Abbess of Fengyue Temple has rendered meritorious service by offering her divine magic, and you have also contributed by protecting the young masters and ladies and ensuring their safe escape. This fairy has always been fair in rewarding and punishing, so I will give you a little something extra to taste."

Wang Cheng looked up and saw the pink gauze curtain part.

Completely naked, the beautiful Yu Xian'er beckoned to herself with one of her exquisite, crescent-shaped jade feet.

The jade bell tied to her ankle swayed back and forth, its tangible charm like the furry little paws of a fox, tickling the heart with irresistible allure.

If this temptation were placed on the original Tiger God, he probably wouldn't hesitate for even a moment and would immediately pounce on his beloved.

If it were the original Wang Cheng, well... it's hard to say.

This is magic and has nothing to do with being lustful or not; otherwise, I wouldn't have fled in panic when I first met this fox spirit.

but!

Now, Wang Cheng has taken control of the [Nine Netherworld Fruit] within his body and incidentally obtained the "fruit position" bestowed by the ancient Qi of the Six Heavens.

Perhaps compared to other "hidden dragons" who were forcibly fed Dao fruits, it is merely in a hidden, lurking state that is difficult for immortals to detect.

Protected solely by the six ancient energies, the highest level within the Feathered Immortal system, he possessed a stronger resistance to the demonic charm emanating from Yu Xian'er.

It's like being able to enter a "wise man's state" on your own, and speaking with exceptional confidence after pulling up your pants.

The stunning beauty before him may still be incredibly charming, but in his presence, she loses that bewitching allure that drives people to madness.

"What's wrong? Are you so happy you've gone mad? Hehehe."

Yu Xian'er never thought anyone could resist her charm. Seeing Wang Cheng standing there in a daze, she assumed he was just too excited and had forgotten himself.

Little did they know that Wang Cheng was now in a dilemma. If he didn't go, it wouldn't fit his image as a sycophant to Tiger God, and he might accidentally expose his identity; but if he did go, he couldn't get over his own conscience. The latter was the more crucial factor.
"Was I happy? I was disgusted by your worn-out shoes, okay?"
And with a 'Ximen Qing' right next to me, I could easily go from being caught in a dilemma to having two men on top of each other. What will become of my illustrious reputation?

Wang Cheng had acquired the Tiger God's memories, so he naturally overheard the conversation between the Child Immortal and the White Fox Scholar.

"Over the past few hundred years, more than 100,000 people have been killed, many of whom were not even human. What use is beauty if they are not human?"

Even if I, the King, am 'ill,' I am not so desperate as to eat anything indiscriminately.

Even with the Tiger God costume on, it still feels disgusting; I'm sorry, I don't have that kind of appetite.

Just as he was thinking about whether to use "armchair strategist" to make a fuss and divert Yu Xian'er's attention in an attempt to get away with it,

A shout suddenly came from above:
"Stop! Release that beauty and let me have her!"
Only the strongest man in the world deserves to possess the most beautiful woman. You little tiger demon, and that androgynous thing, get out of my way!

Wang Cheng, Yu Xian'er, and Fengzhou Shanren looked up at the sky.

Crimson light transformed into rosy clouds, burning away the last darkness before dawn, and a sun suddenly rose in the sky.

The light was murky, with a suspicious blood-red hue, unlike sunlight; it resembled the fine flagella of some single-celled organism.

A chilling opening poem, carried by a chilling wind, fell into everyone's ears:

"The two capitals weighed on my shoulders, yet I did not stoop; the twenty-four treatments left only dregs in my bones."

Refining gold and casting silver paves the way to prosperity; brewing tea for wronged souls in a flourishing age.

They put on a golden and purple cloak, their bellies filled with greed, anger, and delusion.

"Don't speak of the common people's sorrow and suffering, for my granaries are overflowing!"

As the last line of the poem was recited, a dignified figure with broad shoulders, known as the "Demon King Descended from Heaven," landed with his hands behind his back in front of Yu Xian'er's bed.

"This is... Yan Donglou?"

Wang Cheng stared in astonishment, his eyes widening.

Compared to his previous appearance of being blind, lame, and as fat as a pig, he has now been completely transformed after eating a [Ba Hui Bad Medicine Fruit].

Standing nine feet tall with a bronze complexion, he stood there imposing and majestic like an iron tower. Even his blind eye had been restored to sight, and he truly looked like a ruler.

One can imagine that his Qingyang and Baiyang incarnations, far away in the southern desert, will undergo even greater changes, and it would be no problem for them to fully recover from the injuries they sustained when they were blown up by a gunpowder barrel.

"Unfortunately, this person is no longer human."

A head suddenly burst open like a fleshy flower, with sharp teeth growing along its edges, and green eyes blinking incessantly on the inner walls of the cavity.

The pitcher plant's canopy-like skull had mutated into the shape of a flat crown, with red beaded chains hanging down. Wang Cheng could even smell the sour, putrid odor of digestive juices up close.

After Yan Donglou became an immortal, his entire being clearly transformed into a combination of some kind of carnivorous plant and human.

Meanwhile, it seemed that some enormous, indescribable creature was lurking, moving, and traversing in the darkness behind them.

It emitted a sticky, low roar from what could be a mouth or some other vocal organ.

Even his voice exuded a medicinal, incense-like, and terrifyingly fishy stench that seemed to seep into his very bones.

With just one glance, you'll hear countless conch shells, wooden fish drums, chanting, and other hallucinatory sounds, along with the supreme name of the demon—[Bahui the Evil Medicine Demon]!
Although the illusion lasted only a moment before disappearing again, it was clear enough for everyone to see clearly.

This also reveals his identity as the spokesperson for the six-day ancient qi.

Yan Donglou, his face full of arrogance and domineering aura, reached out to grab Yu Xian'er's chest.

"Hey, wait a minute!"
Such beauties are destined to be with this humble monk; they are fit to be his demon queen.

A burst of dark golden demonic light flashed before everyone's eyes, and then another person barged in, raising his hand to block Yan Donglou's movements.

The monk, who had been personally subdued by Yu Xian'er and fed a [South Sea Yaksha Fruit], also underwent a drastic change in appearance.

It looks like two living people were sewn together back to back.

The front appears magnificent and resplendent, like a true Arhat in a Buddhist temple; the back is as black as ink, with a single eye growing from its forehead, resembling a fierce and ferocious Yaksha King.

The golden robe on its body writhed, revealing mycelium, sharp teeth, and countless scarlet eyes along its edges, resembling a large piece of flesh that belonged neither to plants nor animals, known as the "Tai Sui".

The two inhuman monsters faced off, staring intently at each other.

Sizzle sizzle
The crimson and dark gold immortal lights on their bodies clashed fiercely, corroding each other, all for the right to mate with Yu Xian'er. Inadvertently, they relieved the "Tiger God" from his predicament.

Having experienced it firsthand, Wang Cheng naturally saw through the true nature of these two "hidden dragons":

"Although they still retain their original selves, they are each parasitized by the thoughts of a six-day-old spirit, and their own desires and obsessions are infinitely amplified, with greed, anger, ignorance and all five poisons present."

While he might not be ten times stronger after turning evil, he would still be far stronger than when he was human.

Moreover, one can see the big picture from small details. Look at these two hidden dragon puppets, who immediately declared, "I don't eat beef," and even fought tooth and nail over a woman.

The relationship between the six celestial bodies may not be as harmonious as it appears on the surface.

This is my chance.

Wang Cheng's heart skipped a beat, and the very first sentence of the text of "Zheng He's Treasure Map" resurfaced in his mind:
"In the late Yankang era, immortals vied for the throne!"

In the mortal realm, demons run rampant, reincarnations are ingenious, disbelief in the Great Way prevails, simplicity and purity are scattered, the three and five principles are lost, and humans and ghosts are in disarray.
The six-day-old aura, referred to as "official title."

Clearly, the first celestial anomaly during the pre-Qin period was the so-called "Yankang End of Dharma." What position were the six celestial bodies vying for back then? How many positions were there? Will the struggle continue this time?
It seems that we can get a glimpse of the whole picture from these potential dragons.
