Become a true immortal by emulating all demons.

Chapter 123 Watari is Dead

"Let's go too."

The Azure Nether Demon General and the Golden Bear Demon General slowly walked out.

The former never intended to profit from this catastrophe.

With her cultivation at the late stage of Core Formation, it would be difficult for her to compete with those great demons whose cultivation had already reached the peak of Core Formation for the opportunity to advance to the Demon Lord level.

Now that he has assisted the Moon Devouring Demon General in killing a city lord, he has completed the task assigned by the Cloud Dragon Demon Lord.

As for Golden Bear, he is relatively weak.

He was already quite satisfied to have received some credit for killing Yu Duchuan.

"Thank you both."

Lin Shu bowed and expressed her gratitude.

What needs to be done next is not only extremely risky, but also requires complete concentration; even the fragmented soul must be retrieved.

With four Core Formation cultivators helping to look after Yu Sheng, it was naturally much more reassuring.

"Brother Demon, be careful."

A hint of worry flashed across the eyes of the Azure Nether Demon General.

The demons didn't recognize the mountain god's token, so they didn't know what Lin Shu wanted to do.

The other party lives in Yongzhou Pass, and there may still be some grudges between them. I want to take this opportunity to settle them one by one.

This Moon-Eating Demon General has already demonstrated terrifying strength that is convincing enough.

However, there were still several Golden Core experts fighting in the sky.

Yu Qiheng's decline was evident, and he was completely at a disadvantage.

However, even a cornered dog will jump over a wall, and the Yu family's reputation for their wind-riding and mountain-patrolling supernatural abilities is legendary.

If they notice what's happening below and try to deal with it first, that would be dangerous.

"You too."

Having said that, Lin Shu no longer hesitated.

He leaped up and disappeared into the vast, deep mountains.

"Tsk tsk, truly skilled and daring."

After he left, the remaining demon generals recovered from the invisible oppressive feeling, and all of them showed admiration: "I wonder which immortal descendant provoked this fierce god. I'm afraid they have no way to survive tonight."

"Let's get out of here quickly."

A certain demon general gazed at the mountain peak with lingering fear.

It is likely that they discovered that without human intervention, the golden light was difficult to hit the two demon lords and Zhao Zhiyue.

At this moment, the precious mirror has begun to target the demon general in the mountains.

Every time a golden light silently descends, it easily snatches away the life of a great demon.

Fortunately, with the help of the Moon Devouring Demon Brother, they were able to resolve the situation much faster than the other demon generals, and thus had a chance to escape.

"call."

Xie Yutang stared at the Mountain God Mirror, his worries deepening.

But she still stepped firmly forward and said softly, "Listen to the Demon General, let's go."

In an instant, more than ten streaks of light split into different directions and quickly left the cliff.

……

Light and shadow flickered in the murky sky.

The light occasionally illuminates this majestic and precipitous mountain range, making it appear like a crouching behemoth, ferocious and terrifying amidst the sounds of battle.

A fierce wind raged, sweeping across mountains and rivers.

"Stop him! Don't let him escape!"

The demons of the Great Shun Dynasty moved erratically, chasing after the heavily wounded adult blue phoenix that had fled.

As expected of a descendant of the mountain god, even with serious injuries, he was still able to shake off the demons in these mountains and forests.

"Hey!"

Seeing that the supplies they had just acquired were about to escape from Yongzhou Pass, the great demons looked disappointed and sighed angrily.

Before the sighs had subsided, a gust of wind swept backward.

The dying blue phoenix flapped its wings and took to the air. Its dazed eyes, stained with blood, finally began to shine.

The next moment, a fierce black shadow suddenly appeared in his sight.

The young man was dressed in black armor and exuded a powerful aura.

The long, powerful right leg swung down like a sharp axe, the boot landing heavily on Qingluan's head.

boom--

With unparalleled power, it was released in an instant.

The blue phoenix's proud neck suddenly slumped down, and its head shattered completely.

Before it could transform back into human form, the corpse was neatly and efficiently stored in a storage bag.

"Murderers and arsonists wear golden belts, while those who repair bridges and roads leave no trace; the one who kills a mere mortal is rewarded with 650 taels of silver."

The young man in black armor didn't even glance back before his figure shot off again, disappearing into the mountains and rivers.

"..."

The demons of the Great Shun Dynasty stood there dumbfounded, reaching out to touch the blood splattered on their faces.

Then, they looked up again in horror.

"Did you see it clearly?"

"It's that Core Formation cultivator...it's the Moon Devouring Demon General..."

Someone recognized that handsome face and said in a trembling voice.

Although the immortal descendant, who had expended a great deal of effort, was suddenly taken away by someone else.

But the demons didn't show much resentment on their faces.

Let's not even talk about how they themselves were already struggling to catch up with that blue phoenix.

Based on the terrifying strength the young man had just displayed, they didn't dare to have any complaints.

Among demons, those ranked lower give way.

This is a rule that all the great demons agree upon.

The gale is still raging.

Occasionally revealing its form, it would casually kill several young immortal offspring who were fleeing together.

They collected the corpses and fled, disappearing into the sound of the wind.

The whole process was incredibly smooth.

"That's the thirty-eighth one."

Lin Shu let out a soft breath.

Although these young immortal descendants are only at the Foundation Establishment stage, they are much more expensive than ordinary disciples, almost all costing fifteen taels or more.

Dozens of them together

Aside from the ill-gotten gains, their corpses themselves also served as provisions for demons.

Although he hadn't transformed into a demon and didn't need these things, collecting them to train his subordinate demons was still a good idea.

Not to mention that, apart from the young immortal, the storage bag also contained three adult immortal descendants.

In this great calamity, after deducting the loss of three hundred taels, he had accumulated two thousand eight hundred taels of ill-gotten silver.

Because of Yu Sheng, good deeds are also pouring in continuously.

It's just too fragmented; I'll have to wait until I have some free time to slowly take stock.

Logically speaking, now that he had eaten and drunk his fill, he could have simply turned around and left, and gone to Yongzhou to settle down as the head disciple of the Yu family.

But Lin Shu slowly withdrew his Wind-Riding Mountain-Patrolling Divine Power and stood at the foot of the mountain.

He looked up at the majestic peak shrouded in countless interwoven blue lights, and his breath gradually became hot.

"Ha!"

From the very first day he arrived at Yongzhou Pass, the moment he landed, he looked up and saw this Mountain God Mirror.

Nearly three months later, he finally came to be so close to the treasure mirror for the first time, and a strange excitement welled up in his heart.

Lin Shu is not the type of person who can't resist treasures.

Only by mastering this item can he gain the qualification to participate even slightly in the battles between those Golden Core experts within the Heavenly Canopy.

It even affected the course of the battle!

Besides the major reason that he wanted to earn money through good deeds but not good intentions, there was another reason why he chose to stay and participate in this matter.

That means leaving yourself a way out.

He found a place that, despite being ostracized by the Qi family and even being targeted by Young Master Qi, still dared to take him in.

Lin Shu personally killed so many immortal descendants, and this merit was enough for him to secure a place in this demon mountain.

But this is contingent on someone acknowledging and remembering the credit, preventing it from being embezzled or forgotten.

Lin Shuxin distrusted the demons of the Great Shun Dynasty, so the Cloud Dragon Demon Lord absolutely could not be allowed to get into trouble.

"Why bother working so hard...?"

He glanced helplessly at the sky.

Bai Hong fought with increasing ferocity, which ironically gave the old man from the Zhao family a chance to catch his breath.

The Cloud Dragon Demon Lord had clearly provoked Yu Qiheng's anger.

This mountain god, at the Golden Core stage, actually revealed his immortal form, completely ignoring the other two and chasing only Yunlong.

It has a ruthless intent to kill even if one is seriously injured.

"..."

Lin Shu withdrew her gaze and took out the mountain god's token.

He opened his palm and showed the small seal to Xiongfeng.

The next moment, the interwoven net of light trembled in unison.

Then a wisp of soft, clear light shone down on the young man, like a hazy veil.

In Lin Shu's eyes, these beams of light were no longer sharp and intimidating, making people afraid to get close. Instead, they seemed more approachable, as if they were protecting her.

He started walking, following the mountain path upwards.

In the silent night, countless clear sword energies made way for him.

Lin Shu gradually quickened her pace, her expression calm and composed, showing no sign of guilt whatsoever.

Holding the mountain god's token and possessing the essence of the Azure Phoenix, he has learned to ride the wind and patrol the mountains.

What else is there to say? This is simply my own Mountain God Mirror.

On the desolate mountaintop sit five towering white jade formations shaped like ivory.

Their sharp tips converge, like claws closing together, and between the fingertips, an ancient bronze mirror quietly floats, reflecting thousands of miles of mountains and rivers.

Even in the blurry mirror, golden light still flickers.

Lin Shu's steps faltered slightly. Even though he held the mountain god's token, when he was still more than ten feet away from the mirror, he still felt a tangible pressure.

"Don't be so stingy, I'll just look, I won't touch you."

He stopped walking forward, sat cross-legged, spread his hands, and showed the small marks on his palms to indicate that he meant no harm.

Even magical artifacts possess sentience, let alone something that is clearly a level above magical artifacts.

Sure enough, the Mountain God Mirror quickly turned its attention back to the mountains, which were glowing with golden light, and then fixed its gaze on a fierce demon general in the far distance.

"..."

Lin Shu prepared to use her Wind-Riding and Mountain-Patrolling Divine Skill, ready to dodge the golden light's counterattack at any moment.

His eyes narrowed slightly, and beads of sweat gradually appeared on his forehead.

One by one, fragments of the soul began to peel away from the body.

Those blurry outlines, invisible to the naked eye, drifted along, quietly approaching the ancient mirror, and then suddenly darted inside!

A Thousand Threads of Soul-Splitting Entanglement!

It can divide souls into countless parts, controllable magical artifacts, and seize human bodies.

Both being signature supernatural abilities of half-life immortals, the Yu family's Wind-Riding Mountain Patrol was truly outstanding, allowing Lin Shu to thrive in these mountains and rivers.

In comparison, the Qi Family Divine Power, which could only serve as eyes and ears, seemed much more ordinary, and was even countered by the Xuanjia Immortal Talisman of the Demon Slayer Division.

How could the Silver-Eyed White Wolf Immortal, who could rule half of Yongzhou, be so mediocre?

Lin Shu's actions at this moment are the true application of this supernatural power!

buzz-

The Mountain God Mirror suddenly trembled, and the golden light that shot out suddenly deviated from its original position.

Life and death are determined by Heaven; even Yama, the King of Hell, can snatch a life. Saving a mortal child will be rewarded with six hundred taels of silver.

"What's going on?"

The Great Demon King who had narrowly escaped death looked up at the mountain peaks with a bloodless face.

He had just felt his energy being locked by the Mountain God Mirror, his heartbeat stopped, and he was prepared to be crushed.

How could such a mysterious magical treasure miss so many targets?

"So many?"

Lin Shu looked surprised as she gazed at the sixty jade-light silver ingots that had appeared beside her.

But soon, he withdrew his gaze and looked back at the bronze mirror.

Of the five soul fragments that had just been released, three were instantly killed.

Those scattered fragments of souls swept back and merged into his brow.

"This little thing is quite stubborn."

Lin Shu licked her dry lips.

As his face gradually turned pale, with each breath, three more fragments of his soul separated and viciously pounced on the Mountain God Mirror.

Without a master in control, the Mountain God Mirror was clearly unaware of what had happened.

While shaking to resist the biting of the split soul, it also tried its best to reassemble the golden light and sweep it across the mountains and forests.

Time passed slowly.

Another golden light deviated from its original target.

Life and death are determined by Heaven; even Yama, the King of Hell, can snatch a life. Saving a mortal child will be rewarded with 320 taels of silver.

The Golden Core experts fighting in the sky were unaware of anything amiss.

However, the demon generals inside Yongzhou Pass clearly noticed that something was wrong.

If it were said that the great demon was more vigilant and, coupled with its astonishing abilities, forcibly avoided the golden light, then it would be easier to understand.

But the golden light almost veered off course, striking another deserted mountain peak instead.

All the demons looked up at the mountain peak in surprise.

In places they can't see.

The handsome young man's face was haggard and withered, but his eyes shone even brighter.

The Mountain God Mirror stopped condensing golden light, most likely because it sensed danger and began activating the surrounding array.

Countless beams of clear light suddenly became extremely sharp, emanating an extremely dangerous aura.

However, protected by the mountain god's token, they all ignored the figure on the mountaintop.

Lin Shu stared intently at the bronze mirror, then suddenly stumbled to her feet and tentatively walked forward.

Sure enough, the original oppressive aura was gradually dissipating.

He walked more than ten feet and came into the interior of the five towering white jade structures.

"Don't be afraid, I'll just touch you, I don't want you."

Lin Shu took a deep breath.

His haste in reshaping his split soul caused his consciousness to become somewhat hazy and unclear.

Although his body was perfectly healthy, the torment of his divided soul being strangled countless times was gradually being fed back into his mind as those fragments flowed into his brow.

He tried his best to soften his voice and sat down again under the Mountain God Mirror.

Before he could finish speaking, five more split souls violently entangled him!

……

The distant horizon.

A colossal bird, its wings billowing out the sky, flapped its wings, stirring up the sea of ​​clouds.

The countless green feathers, each over ten feet long, hung upside down like immortal swords, falling like a sudden storm!

A crimson light swept backward, revealing a lithe and wildly beautiful figure—it was none other than the Crimson Silk Demon Lord.

Her clothes were tattered, and the blood-red tiger tattoo on her smooth, muscular back seemed to come alive.

Unable to dodge in time, the feathers left deep gashes on the two round, slender thighs.

And it was right there among these densely packed sword feathers.

But then a white rainbow, like a dragon, advanced instead of retreating.

He swept fiercely across the sky.

With a hoarse cry of pain, Yu Qiheng's broad wings were severed in half at the base by a sharp blade, and waves of scalding blood rained down upon the world.

"You fiend! I should have killed you back then!!"

He flapped his wings weakly, and his enormous body began to sway.

Although he was uttering harsh words, he had no intention of killing anyone.

This scoundrel has traveled for many years, and not only has his injury fully healed, but his skills are also far superior to what they were back then. Now he has colluded with two other people to come and seek revenge.

If I were to forcibly kill the opponent by myself, I might have to pay a huge price!

"..."

A white rainbow appeared in the distance, revealing a middle-aged man.

The Cloud Dragon Demon Lord was covered in sword marks, his white clothes were soaked with blood, yet he still stood tall and straight.

He completely ignored Yu Qiheng, instead glancing sideways at the majestic, striped tiger that had been lying in wait for a long time, as imposing as a small mountain.

This ferocious tiger was entirely black, but its stripes were as brilliant as gold, making it extremely majestic.

"You've been watching this show for so long, it's time you put something to use, isn't it?" Yunlong Demon Lord said calmly.

"I know this, of course. There's no need for you, you demon, to interfere. Besides, if I hadn't been holding this protective object and keeping an eye on things, He would have already taken the Mountain God Mirror and killed you all."

The golden-striped black tiger opened its mouth wide, its voice deep and resonant.

Immortals are proud and would never collude with demons and evil spirits.

Zhao Zhiyue merely wanted to take advantage of this chaos to seize the Mountain God Mirror from the Yu family, but that didn't mean he would accept the criticism of a beast.

Now that Yu Qiheng is injured, he is clearly considering retiring.

The other party has the ability to ride the wind and patrol the mountains for protection, and can leave at any time.

But for him, this was the perfect opportunity to steal the spotlight.

"Zhao Zhiyue, you just wait! You dared to kill my immortal companion and attempt to seize my mountain god's treasure! From this day forward, our two families will be sworn enemies!"

The ancient blue phoenix roared and soared into the sky, intending to take the Mountain God Mirror with it and escape before it left.

Zhao Zhiyue sneered and headed towards the mountain peak as well.

The opponent possessed mid-stage Golden Core cultivation power, but his foundation was too weak. After such a long time, he had not even fully grasped and digested half of that surge in cultivation power.

With him watching over them the whole time, the other party didn't have a chance to activate the formation or control the camera from beginning to end.

Moreover, Qingluan is currently injured, making it even less likely that she could defeat me in my prime.

"I'm exhausted."

The Crimson Silk Demon Lord squatted among the clouds, rubbing her battered thighs, and said to the Cloud Dragon, "I guess I misunderstood your subordinate."

The fact that no one has mastered the Mountain God Mirror yet indicates that Yu Xin has already perished.

No one betrayed them, and everything was proceeding smoothly and according to plan.

Now that it was finally time to wrap things up, she couldn't help but feel a little relieved.

"Shiyue is not my subordinate."

The Cloud Dragon Demon Lord stood calmly, only his hands, hidden behind his back, were clenched tightly.

His heart meridian was damaged, and he was already seriously injured.

But at this moment, we cannot reveal the slightest flaw.

Even though the current matter has nothing to do with the demons, it is the two immortals fighting for the mirror.

If nothing unexpected happens, the two will soon leave Yongzhou Pass. As for which way they go, that will depend on who ends up with the mirror.

That being said.

But Yunlong Demon Lord always knew that Zhao Zhiyue was not a true ally.

Now that the other party has obtained the Mountain God Mirror, they must be eager to return to the Great Shun Dynasty to refine this treasure.

However, if he revealed his severely injured body, the old man probably wouldn't mind killing another demon lord before leaving.

The remaining demon lord alone might not be able to stop the enemy.

"Say what you will, the monsters of your Liang Kingdom are always strange."

The Crimson Silk Demon Lord waved his hand dismissively, too lazy to bother with this useless chatter.

The demons living in the Great Liang Dynasty, from demon generals to demon kings, all had a strange and eccentric way of behaving.

They were already used to it.

"wrong!"

As soon as the Crimson Silk Demon Lord lowered his arm, his entire body suddenly stiffened, as if he had been targeted by some ferocious beast.

A sudden surge of fear and rage appeared on her wildly sculpted face. She abruptly turned to the middle-aged man in the distance and hissed, "What's going on?!"

Yunlong's expression changed slightly, somewhat surprised by the sudden turn of events.

He remained silent for a few moments, offering no explanation, but simply stated frankly, "I don't know."

Yu Qiheng and Zhao Zhiyue stopped at the same time, suspended in the cloud curtain.

The ferocious tiger, its face contorted with fear, swiftly retreated.

After a brief moment of stunned silence, Yu Qiheng seemed to have thought of something, and a look of wild joy appeared in his eyes.

He suddenly reversed his dejected mood and burst into loud laughter: "Very good, very good, Watari! I knew I hadn't misjudged you!"

Just now, the surrounding energy was quickly locked in.

A terrifying aura was brewing between heaven and earth, a spiritual power from the mountains and rivers that was ten times stronger than before!

The Mountain God Mirror cannot act in this way on its own initiative.

It can only be that someone entered the formation and successfully took control of it!

"Gentlemen, isn't it my turn now?"

Yu Qiheng's laughter grew increasingly manic, as if he wanted to unleash all the pent-up frustration and resentment he had just accumulated.

He almost forgot that he had also given Yu Duchuan a token from the mountain god.

This timid junior finally mustered the courage to step forward at the most crucial moment.

"I knew it! There were other people involved."

Upon hearing the words "Crossing the River," Yunlong suddenly smiled.

A young swordsman who, despite being on a magnificent immortal path, is still willing to risk his life to do something for the demons.

Why would they go back to being dogs for the immortals for some benefit?

That's underestimating them too much.

"..."

The Crimson Silk Demon Lord was speechless and somewhat exasperated.

She did misunderstand the young cultivator again, but is that the point?

People are going to die now!

The Mountain God Mirror, which is controlled by someone, is not so easy to hide from.

Seeing that things were not going well, that old bastard Zhao Zhiyue actually hid behind the two of them again.

"Is it too late to leave now?"

Yu Qiheng stretched out his massive, sky-covering body again, looking down at the three of them with extreme smugness.

His gaze swept back and forth between the three figures, as if Yama, the King of Hell, were calling out names.

Finally, a slightly mocking tone landed on the middle-aged man, his deep voice resounding throughout the heavens and earth: "Crossing the river, first slay that bastard Yunlong!"

The demons inside Yongzhou Pass were terrified and stopped moving.

The generals in the demon mountain were struck as if by lightning.

What shattered their spirits even more was that, following Yu Qiheng's words, the light in the mountains and forests actually dimmed.

The wind suddenly stopped, and the mountain peaks seemed to be bathed in a golden sun, so bright it was almost blinding.

"Let's go now."

Yunlong Demon Lord loosened his clenched fist and shook his head at Hongling, who was hesitating in the distance.

Given his current condition, even with the other party's help, he has no chance of escaping this calamity.

One person still needs to stay behind to lead the demons out of Yongzhou Pass.

"She can't leave, Your Majesty..."

Yu Qiheng sneered, his eyes already fixed on the female demon.

However, his words came to an abrupt halt.

A majestic golden light, as powerful as a pillar of heaven, illuminated the mountains, silently piercing the sky, and lasted for more than ten breaths.

"Hey!"

The enormous, sky-covering blue phoenix was blasted away, its long feathers shattered, and a surging wave of blood stained the clouds red.

The Mountain God Mirror hangs atop the mountain, absorbing the essence of heaven and earth day and night and storing it within itself.

At this moment, it unleashed nearly half of its power, transforming into an unprecedentedly terrifying golden light, which fell upon its guardian.

"Heh."

The Crimson Silk Demon Lord stared blankly, his pupils dilating.

The Cloud Dragon Demon Lord also looked towards the mountain peak with surprise and uncertainty.

Besides these two Golden Core demons, many other demon generals who were closer to the majestic peak also briefly saw the appearance of the mountaintop by taking advantage of the golden light that illuminated the peak for more than ten breaths.

Between ivory and white jade.

The big red moon hangs high.

The man was tall and slender, wearing grotesque and tattered demon armor.

The well-defined muscles were covered with glaring bloodstains.

Black flames danced wildly, as if they were about to engulf the mountain peaks.

He stood at the highest point of Yongzhou Pass, casually raising his arm towards the sky, his long, slender fingers clenched loosely.

In his palm was an ancient bronze mirror.

On the blurry mirror surface, a few specks of light still lingered.
