Dao Cheng Gui Xian

Chapter 621 Li Wushou, you've arrived!
"Have you already taken action?"

After pondering for a while, Li Wushou murmured a question.

Inside the Divine Aperture Three Immortals Hall, the old beggar, sitting cross-legged under the incense table, grinned upon hearing this and replied:

"Someone's going crazy because they can't find Wu Qinghe. They can't get out themselves, so they're just building up a fire. If that fire doesn't bring anyone out, hehe."

He glanced at the old beggar, his words carrying a hint of schadenfreude, but his eyes were filled with coldness.

Li Wushou nodded slightly and said softly:

"Let's suppress the ones that are jumping around happily first! So that it won't be annoying to watch them later."

The old beggar had no objection to this and replied with a smile:

"After dreaming for so long, it's time to wake up."

After saying that, as if remembering something, he spoke again to remind her:

"Don't forget what you promised me."

The old beggar wasn't worried that Li Wushou would go back on his word.

Rather, they were worried that Li Wushou might get carried away with the fighting and forget about it.

At that point, he and Chen Gou'er would have nowhere to cry.

Moreover, this reminder was not unfounded; he had already sensed the growing killing intent emanating from Li Wushou.

He was fully aware of what was happening within the Yanwu Domain.

By this time, Li Wushou probably understood the situation quite well.

He had experienced this kind of thing many times, but this was the first time for Li Wushou.

Knowing Li Wushou as he did, he knew he wouldn't hold back this time!

He nodded slightly, which was considered an agreement.

Li Wushou's expression was solemn as he took a step towards the Yanwu Domain.

There are two barriers between the Yanwu Domain and the Fubo Domain.

The first place is the Yu River, which is located near the west.

Now, because Li Wushou is in charge of the Sealing Spirit Path.

The previous battle had already crossed the boundary of the Domain River and advanced to the vicinity of the Tianyan Mountains.

Luofu City, which was originally located at the intersection of the three regions, was not directly transformed into the territory of the Sealed Spirit Path, but it had long been under the control of Li Wushou.

Therefore, the barrier of the Yu River has disappeared.

It has now become a buffer between the Fengling Path and the Fubo Domain.

Besides this place, there is Yin-Yang Mountain on the side closer to the eastern sea.

The Yin-Yang Mountains stretch for nearly two thousand miles, like a belt wrapped between the Fubo Domain and the Yanwu Domain, extending all the way into the East China Sea.

The so-called Yin-Yang Mountain is not because it contains the power of Yin and Yang.

Instead, the north side of this mountain, closer to the Yanwu territory, is perpetually ablaze with flames, much like the Yanyang Mountain Range that once marked the border between the Central Domain and the Fengling Path.

The mountains facing south, closer to Fuboyu, are lush and green, with a spring-like climate all year round.

However, the mountains and forests are filled with mist and miasma, making it difficult for ordinary people to pass through.

Both of these mountain formations possess terrifying destructive potential.

Furthermore, since the Great Venerable Yanwu had always been wary of the Great Venerable Zhenhai, he had been extremely vigilant on the northern side of Yin-Yang Mountain, which resulted in the two regions not leaving any trade routes at this barrier.

Therefore, most of the previous transactions were conducted from the Yu River, through Luofu City, into the Fubo Domain.

Alternatively, they may conduct limited exchanges through the East China Sea.

Given this situation, three Guanghua Shen families have settled on this side of the Yin-Yang Mountain Yanwu Domain, and the actual number of people living there is even greater.

This is to ensure that there are enough people to buffer the situation should a large-scale invasion by the Fubo region one day.

The Wu family, to which Wu Xia belongs, is one of the three great Nascent Soul families!

During this period, the names of the powerful Wu Xia and the powerful Zi Yan became widely known in the Yanwu Domain.

Although the Central Region's Xuanhuang and Yanwu Regions suffered defeats in the battle against Fenglingdao, many others suffered defeats.

Aside from Huang Shigong, the previous master of the Xuanhuang Territory who sacrificed himself for the cause, who else has shown outstanding performance as the powerful Wu Xia and Zi Yan?

Moreover, the two of them managed to escape unscathed from the Sealed Spirit Path!

This is something that even many top-tier Nascent Soul cultivators haven't been able to achieve.

Even the Venerable Avatars in the neighboring Beast Domain and Golden Light Domain perished there!

How valuable is this?
As news spread that the Three Immortals Mountain had taken control of the Sealing Spirit Path, the Wu family quickly became the leading figures at the foot of Yin-Yang Mountain.

The Wu family's influence grew ever stronger.

However, the patriarch of the Wu family, the powerful Wu Xia, changed his usual ways and rarely showed himself in public.

Nevertheless, the Wu family mansion was constantly visited by a steady stream of people every day.

With a major upheaval approaching, even ordinary people sensed the danger and thought that if they caught the eye of the Wu family patriarch or any elder of the Wu family, they could get some protection.

But today, there was no one at the Wu family's door.

Even the entire Wu family compound was as silent as a dead zone.

"Chichi."

Footsteps suddenly echoed across the flagstone plaza.

The footsteps were so light, like withered leaves rolling across the ground.

It was almost inaudible on ordinary days, but it was particularly clear in this quiet environment.

As they approached the Wu family mansion, their footsteps stopped simultaneously.

Suddenly, a somewhat strange voice rang out:

"This is the Wu family. We will investigate from four directions as quickly as possible to find out what happened at the Wu family."

As soon as he finished speaking, a chorus of agreement was heard.

"Yes!"

Then another voice rang out.

"It's so quiet here. We haven't seen a single person even after crossing Yin-Yang Mountain."

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the voice that had started.

"The Abbot has only one order: bring back the latest news about the Wu family! Everything else is none of our business, understand?" "Yes!"

The rustling conversations ceased, light and shadow shifted, and five figures drifted towards the Wu family mansion.

Against the light's rays, the five figures appeared extremely thin, clearly paper cutouts, and upon closer inspection, their noses and eyes were slightly crooked.

Five figures approached the courtyard wall of the Wu family mansion.

Suddenly, more than a dozen red rays shot out from the bricks and tiles.

The paper figures were stunned. They spun in mid-air and floated in the wind. Upon closer inspection, the once normal courtyard wall had its bricks and tiles flipped up, revealing scarlet eyeballs.

The fascia beneath the eyeballs was firmly attached to the wall, staring intently at the five people.

"What is this?"

The paper figures exchanged glances, all somewhat taken aback.

Before the paper figure in charge could reply, a rustling sound came from under the bricks and tiles again.

The next moment, countless ears, mouths, and tongues crawled out from under the bricks and tiles.

Before long, the entire courtyard wall of the Wu family mansion was filled with these facial features.

Countless mouths opened and closed gently, and thousands of voices rang out simultaneously, each word spoken clearly:

"Sealed Spirit. Dao. White Paper Taoist Temple Paper Figure?"

The five paper figures were stunned, and they actually recognized them?

Just as the leader was about to answer, golden light suddenly filled his eyes, and the next moment, an even more lively pair of eyes appeared in the pupils of the leading paper figure.

A clear, authoritative female voice rang out and asked:
"Blood Buddha Temple?"

Upon hearing this voice, the four paper figures following behind immediately knelt down and kowtowed, saying:

"Greetings, Abbot!"

The Paper Goddess ignored the four paper figures, gazing solemnly at the flesh and features covering the wall.

Last night, the talisman master suddenly emerged from seclusion and found her.

To be frank, it seems that Wu Xia, Zi Yan, and even the entire Yanwu Domain have encountered some trouble.

Because the enemy's spies scattered throughout the Yanwu Domain all disappeared within just half a day.

Not only that, all the spies he sent from the Xuanhuang Domain and the Fengling Dao Sect to investigate also disappeared without a trace, without even a single message being sent out.

Something big must have happened in the Yanwu Domain.

Having realized this, the talisman master did not act rashly and immediately sought out the Paper Goddess.

The Paper Goddess was also greatly shocked by this.

In her view, Yanwu Domain would eventually be merged into Fengling Dao, so why did such a big thing happen so quietly?
She couldn't sit still any longer, so she summoned five paper figures and crossed the Domain River to enter the Yanwu Domain.

Zi Yan is in Yanwu City, which is too far away. She plans to first check on Wu Xia's situation.

Upon investigation, it was discovered that something major had indeed happened in the Yanwu Domain.

Wu Xia and the Wu family are probably doomed.

She never expected it to be the Blood Buddha Temple.

The walls of the courtyard were covered with fleshy features that formed a large face. When the Paper Goddess revealed his identity, he did not panic.

The largest mouth, formed by countless mouths, opened and closed, and sighed:
"It wasn't Li Wushou after all?"

Upon hearing this, the Paper Goddess raised an eyebrow and sternly rebuked:
"How dare you! Call the Second Master by his given name? You're courting death!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a golden edge suddenly appeared on the clouds above, and a magnificent stream of incense energy poured down.

The large face, composed of flesh and blood features, remained unchanged; it was merely a puppet of a deity.

He doesn't have time to waste on the other person.

Gazing at the five paper figures, the man with the large face softly uttered a Buddhist chant:
"Namo Buddha of Flesh and Blood"

In the deserted Wu family mansion, a rustling sound suddenly rang out. The next moment, countless corpses floated up, folded and merged together, transforming into a giant Buddha's palm.

Shoot it toward the golden crack in the sky.

"laugh!"

The cascading incense flames vanished instantly, along with the golden clouds, which also disappeared into nothingness.

The Paper Goddess looked grim. This place was still too far from the Sealed Spirit Path, and this paper body was too rough. She couldn't bring much incense power with her.

Seeing that the divine intervention had been disrupted, the Paper Goddess prepared to destroy this divine thought herself and bring the message back.

But then the Buddha's palm, which had destroyed the incense offering path, suddenly flipped down.

The four paper figures behind her turned to ashes in an instant, and even the paper body in which the Paper Goddess resided was somewhat unable to bear the weight.

"Namo Blood and Flesh Venerable Buddha, please stay a few more days, Master. After Li Wushou comes to redeem you, I will let you leave."

After Big Face finished speaking, Paper Goddess immediately sensed something was wrong.

Sure enough, his own collapsing divine sense was instantly frozen, firmly trapped in the paper body, unable to escape.

How is that possible?
Blood Buddha was merely a top-tier Nascent Soul cultivator, while I was a half-step seventh-level Heavenly God who had created an illusory divine kingdom. Even if it was just a single divine thought, how could Blood Buddha possibly stop me?
Thinking of this, the Paper Goddess felt a jolt in her heart.

Could it be?

No!

This message must be relayed back to Fenglingdao.

Judging from the Blood Buddha's behavior, it seems that the other party has figured out the relationship between Wu Xia and the Second Master, and no longer intends to wait for the Second Master here!

Fortunately, she wasn't unprepared.

With a solemn expression, the Paper Goddess was about to fight desperately.

Suddenly, the suppressive force from the corpse Buddha's palm lightened considerably.

At the same time, a light footstep sounded on the bluestone slab.

Before the paper goddess could look, a familiar voice asked:

"Blood Buddha, were you waiting for me?"

The large face, composed of flesh and blood features, gazed at the figure in a green robe slowly approaching from the end of the square, and chanted a Buddhist prayer once more.

"Namo Buddha of Flesh and Blood!"

"Li Wushou, you've come!"
