Become a true immortal by emulating all demons.

Chapter 166 A New Fame Emerges

Yongzhou is like a giant pyramid.

There were very few people at the top of the tower.

At the very top are the Mountain God and the Night Wanderer, that is beyond doubt.

The previous generation, including Young Master Qi and Yu Tongxuan, as well as those who had reached the Nascent Soul stage even earlier, are still unknown whether they remain in Yongzhou.

There aren't many of these people; you can count them on one hand. They are also at the top of the pyramid, only one head shorter than the Half-Immortal.

Their numbers are so small, and they rarely concern themselves with worldly matters, that they can be disregarded.

After excluding the top of the tower.

In the mundane world, those who stand at the top are the five most promising geniuses who have the best chance of reaching the summit.

As for the loose immortals in the late Golden Core stage, they are second only to them.

No matter where you start counting, this group of rogue immortals are all top-tier experts in Yongzhou, yet now someone is saying—if they're just rogue immortals, he might give it a try.

If the rankings on the Demon Slayer Ranking are real.

Lord Devourer of the Moon, who ranks first among the Demon Lords, is naturally qualified to say such a thing.

But the old demon was a subordinate of the Jinhe Demon Lord, and he knew very well how profound his master's cultivation was. Even with such thunderous methods, he was only ranked second.

Beneath this immense reputation lies a valiant climb through mountains of corpses and seas of blood, as well as the personal guidance of the Demon King Yuanyuan.

How could three demon lords stronger than him suddenly appear?

If he were truly that powerful, why would he need the help of the Great Shun Red Silk Demon Lord to seize the pass from a mere Yu Qiheng?

"If I really harbored malicious intentions, wouldn't that picture be enough? Would I need your approval?"

Lin Shu interrupted the old demon's thoughts with a single sentence, casually saying, "Lead the way."

Although he and Bihai saw the valley in the painting, they were not familiar with Shuangyun Prefecture. If they did not have an acquaintance to guide them, and relied solely on their divided souls to search the mountains, by the time they found the location, the corpses of the demons would probably have already been thrown into the alchemy furnace.

"This old servant would never dare to doubt you, sir!"

The old demon hurriedly waved his hand; he simply didn't want the two demon lords to go and die.

The two demon lords, Jinhe and Shiyi, gathered their followers. Having just arrived in this place, their original plan was to use the Qiankun Locking Dragon Plate to cover the continuous demon mountains and help the demons of Shuangyun Prefecture evacuate.

The Demon Mountain is so vast that the seniors are all very far apart.

Even the Stone Wing Demon Lord, who is most skilled in teleportation, would need quite a bit of time to get here.

"Please come with me, seniors."

No matter what, even if we can't protect the demons, we can't just stand by and watch the Li character fall into the Yu family's hands.

"7

The Azure Sea Demon Lord looked at the young man's back.

She knew that Brother Lin was incredibly powerful, and with prior preparation, he even possessed the strength to kill Yu Dongjun.

In terms of strength, that abbot might not be able to compare to a wandering immortal.

With neither Qian Yiru nor Night Demon Lord present, could he and that scarred old man really attract the attention of a rogue immortal and allow Brother Lin to focus on controlling the Mountain God Mirror?

Moreover, the use of the Mountain God Mirror around Shuangyun Prefecture, with the Qingshan Wanli Qi Guan Tu (a map depicting the vast expanse of green mountains) monitoring the area, would undoubtedly lead to the premature leak of information.

At that time, the demons will likely face more than just one Yu Jingzhe!

"I just hope that the Bagua Dragon Locking Plate is really as mysterious as the rumors say."

She sighed softly. This Qi family treasure not only had the effect of concealing one's aura and storing energy, but it was also a natural combination attack formation.

Although the character "离" is only one of the key elements of the formation and not the formation plate itself, it should still have some of the effects of borrowing magic.

In the quiet valley, there is a flat area by the stream.

A girl dressed in a moon-white dress sat cross-legged, her eyes clear, with a palm-sized piece of white jade hanging in front of her.

Within the clear and translucent jade body, obscure characters moved silently.

The entire piece of white jade was enveloped in flickering flames.

With her cultivation level, it was clearly difficult for her to control this magical treasure, so she needed to rely on external forces to barely activate it.

Nearly three hundred figures sat in a mysterious pattern around the Moon Stream Demon Lord.

The demons closed their eyes and, through the array on the ground, channeled all their demonic power into the girl's body.

As a newly ascended demon lord, it was naturally impossible for her to subdue so many subordinates.

These were all demon generals under the command of the other predecessors, pieced together to give Moon Stream Demon Lord the ability to protect the land.

"Sir, another batch has been sent out."

"We can hold out for another month at most. Once all the demons have left Frostcloud Prefecture, we won't be in such a passive position anymore."

Several demon generals hurried back and whispered a few words to the girl: "Thank you for your hard work."

As a newly promoted demon lord, the other party did not hide to protect himself in such a dangerous situation. Instead, he responded to the summons of the Jinhe Demon Lord and voluntarily waded into this murky water.

"It's okay."

Moon Creek Demon Lord gently shook his head.

She didn't feel it was too hard.

On the contrary, without the likes of the Demon Lord Jinhe who held up the sky for the demons of Yongzhou, he would probably be hanging on the city wall of some prefecture by now.

She only lamented her own lack of strength.

This might cause some flaws and loopholes to appear in this "sky" that has been propped up.

If one's own mistakes lead to total defeat, one may not be able to rest in peace even when dying.

Thinking of this, Moon Creek Demon Lord took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and focused even more intently on controlling the Li character in front of him.

"Such a treasure has fallen into your hands; it is truly a waste of its precious resources."

Just then, a sigh echoed from the bottom of the valley.

His large, rough hand, like that of an old farmer, pierced through the scorching flames, and his five fingers slowly grasped the white jade.

The person who came simply gave it a light tug.

The girl's expression changed drastically the moment she heard the voice.

Before she could react, the color drained from her face, and she let out a muffled groan. At the same time, she opened her eyes and looked up in terror.

Under the cover of the characters, someone silently approached him.

Neither she nor the three hundred demon generals beside her noticed anything!

"Pfft! Pfft!"

As the white jade was pulled, all the demons simultaneously spat out scarlet blood, their faces turning as red as paper.

They opened their eyes in bewilderment, and then saw three figures appear out of nowhere in the stream.

These people possessed unusual features. They wore light blue long gowns, but the thin cloth was stretched taut, completely unable to conceal their burly, ox-like bodies.

The person behind him had two large, curved horns on his head, which were bronze in color.

The old man at the head of the group, with the accumulation of years, had horns as thick as arms, dark and shiny.

"Fang Qingbai————"

A look of despair flashed in Yuexi Demon Lord's eyes. Her white dress fluttered in the wind as she struggled with all her might to gain control of the Separation character.

It turns out to be this wild bull that specializes in cultivating its physical body.

Given the opponent's terrifying level of cultivation, it's no wonder that no one noticed anything unusual.

But she has another problem.

How did this wandering immortal see through the Separation character?!

"You little demon, how dare you know my name?"

Fang Qingbai finally spared a glance for the person in front of him, lowering his eyes slightly and looking down at him from his high position.

In his heart, the only important thing here was this "Li" character.

As expected of Yuan Yuan's former subordinate, Jinhe Demon Lord has not been able to get rid of his bad habit of meddling in other people's business even after lying low in Yongzhou for so many years.

If one were it, possessing this treasure, one could directly summon eight demon lords to follow by one's side, making the nine demons one.

The scattered immortals are no match for them, and the prodigies are unwilling to take risks easily. As long as Jinhe stays out of it, he can easily avoid this disaster.

But now, if one of the characters is removed, the Qiankun Locking Dragon Plate will have a flaw.

If the four paths can be destroyed, they will no longer pose a threat to the prodigies and will once again become easy prey.

Utterly stupid.

Fang Qingbai quickly withdrew his gaze. In front of him, the so-called demon lord and the demon generals beside him were essentially no different.

But this brief eye contact allowed Moon Creek Demon Lord to discern some clues.

"The power of incense offerings and prayers!"

The old ox's eyes held a faint, dazzling golden light.

It is different from demonic power and spiritual power, and even surpasses the magical power used by immortal descendants.

Calling upon the incense offerings of countless households is a skill that only a half-life immortal can master.

No matter how precious a magical treasure is, it is still not enough in front of a true immortal, not to mention that I cannot unleash the full effect of the Li character.

A deep sense of despair appeared on Yuexi Demon Lord's face.

She wasn't worried about her own life or death, but rather she saw the future of Jinhe and other seniors.

The Eight Trigrams Dragon Locking Coil couldn't stop Yu Jingzhe's steps—this prodigy's foundation was far more terrifying than the demons imagined! Snap! Snap!

Suddenly, a sound like golden thunder exploded within the stream.

The great formation, composed of three hundred demon generals, continuously channeled demonic power into the body of the Moon Stream Demon Lord, and then poured it all into the Li character.

All these things combined were no match for that rough hand, and were utterly torn to the ground.

Fang Qingbai didn't even use any supernatural powers; he simply relied on his brute strength to forcibly take away the character.

"Take away" is not quite accurate.

He calmly took it away in front of everyone.

Such a horrifying situation nearly shattered the courage of the demons.

"It can't be saved."

The old demon, who had rushed back in a panic, had just entered the stream when he looked up and saw this scene.

He murmured to himself.

Whether it was the lives of the demons or the magical treasures, they were all easily grasped in the palm of this hand.

"Is it yours? Why did you reach out and take it?"

With a slightly displeased tone, another fair hand pierced through the crimson flames, its slender fingers grasping the other half of the white jade.

The newcomer appeared just as silently, and even their actions were exactly the same as Fang Qingbai's.

The demons gradually opened their eyes wide. Moon Creek Demon Lord slumped to the ground, forcibly stabilizing the turbulent demonic power within her body. Blood seeped from her seven orifices, but she did not reach out to wipe it away. Instead, she looked up at what lay before her.

Even though he knew the other party was Fang Qingbai.

In Shuangyun Prefecture, someone actually dared to approach within three feet of him.

This raging bull, in terms of physical strength alone, is probably no less than a prodigy from a family that has been immortals for half a lifetime!

Even the other two members of the Fang family looked up in surprise.

The ferocious demon armor was covered with dark red rust marks, but it did not look old. Instead, it resembled a ferocious beast from the Cangshan Mountains, exuding a strong aura of malevolence.

The owner of the armor was young, with a fair and delicate face, lacking some of the roughness of his appearance, making him look like a noble young master who never lifted a finger.

But the character "离" remained steadily suspended in the air.

"...

""

Fang Qingbai narrowed his eyes slightly, and his arm suddenly swelled up by half a circle.

The white jade emitted a creaking, mournful sound, leaving everyone around it stunned.

Even if it is only a part of the Bagua Dragon Locking Plate, it cannot be denied that it is a spiritual treasure.

Now, however, it shows faint signs of breaking as it is held between two hands.

Crushing a magical artifact with one's bare body! Is this... is this even human?

The wailing grew louder and louder.

But under everyone's unwavering gaze, the white jade remained suspended in mid-air, without moving an inch.

The young man stood quietly, and through this silent action, he explained to the onlookers why he dared to step into the three feet of ground in front of this wild bull.

"What a formidable demon! I've never heard of it before. Where did it come from?"

Fang Qingbai suddenly laughed, then released his hand.

Perhaps they felt that continuing this stalemate was pointless, or perhaps they wanted a quick resolution.

However you interpret it, this action illustrates one thing.

That is, he lacked the confidence to take the Li character from the demon-armored youth as decisively as before.

Upon seeing this, the two descendants of the Fang family felt their eyelids twitch and immediately became wary.

A person who can gain an advantage over their own ancestor by relying on strength is not someone who can be simply described as a "great demon".

"Dragon Spine Ridge".

Lin Shu casually tossed the white jade in his hand to the woman beside him. He glanced at the fool and the Azure Sea Demon Lord in the distance and said softly, "Keep an eye on them for me."

'

."

The Azure Sea Demon Lord nodded in a daze.

Even if she wasn't a demon from Shuangyun Mansion, she had at least heard of the Fang family's reputation.

This demon lord of ours actually took back the Li character from the Three-Hoofed Bull so easily!

She quickly recovered from her surprise and realized something was wrong.

Brother Lin revealed his form directly, which meant he didn't intend to use the Mountain God Mirror?

"Dragon's Spine Ridge —"

Fang Qingbai pondered silently, a look of surprise flashing across his eyes.

He had considered many possibilities, but he never expected to hear this name.

How could such a barren and impoverished place nurture such a ferocious demon?

Never mind, it's not important.

Suddenly, a series of rhythmic rumbling sounds rang out from the deep valley, deafening and seemingly about to shatter the internal organs of those around them.

That's the old ox breathing.

Fang Qingbai's decision to let go does not mean he is giving up on the character.

It's just a matter of changing the order.

Previously, the treasures were the most important thing; it didn't matter when the demons were killed.

The reason we need to deal with the demons now is because of this young man's intrusion.

The result is always the same.

The vital energy within a wandering immortal, which is known for its physical strength, is enough to shake the heavens and earth.

The booming sound grew heavier and heavier, like a giant drum being struck heavily by a god wielding a great hammer.

Boom!Boom!

This is the heartbeat of an old ox.

He seemed to blend into the surrounding mountains, and the moment he raised his right arm, the demons saw a mountain range rise up.

His long arm, like a steel whip, calmly and steadily struck the figure in front of him.

The combat techniques of body cultivators are always so simple and unadorned, yet every move carries the power to move mountains and seas.

Lin Shu suddenly raised his arm, and his powerful qi and blood transformed into a tangible red mist that flowed between his sharp arm guards.

The two arms collided violently, and all the force was completely dissipated.

A deathly silence fell over the room.

"Ha!"

Moon Creek Demon Lord gripped the Separation character tightly in his hand, as if sensing something.

She finally understood why the young demon lord had asked them to take good care of the demons.

Without the slightest hesitation, she directly mobilized the chaotic demonic power within her, engulfing all the demons present and causing them to flee the area.

The next moment, the mountains suddenly began to collapse from the depths, like a giant black maw, instantly swallowing up this quiet valley.

The brutal clash between the two powerful body cultivators had quietly shattered the veins buried deep within the earth.

Amidst a terrifying scene resembling the collapse of the heavens, two figures simultaneously soared into the air.

The punches landed with a resounding impact, making it seem like two martial artists were locked in combat. But given the precedent of the abyss below, no one dared to question the astonishing power contained within those fists!

"carefree!"

The old ox's long bellow reverberated in all directions.

In the blink of an eye, the two had exchanged hands hundreds of times.

He never imagined that he would encounter such a powerful and evenly matched demon lord in Frost Cloud Palace.

The demons below were equally surprised that this young demon lord had actually fought the three-hoofed bull to a draw.

No! It's not just a tie!

Fang Qingbai threw a punch with full confidence, aiming straight for his opponent's shoulder. He could already sense that, in terms of sheer strength, this scoundrel was slightly inferior to him.

But his expression suddenly changed.

This time, Lin Shu did not choose to parry the moves, but instead used the same fierce punch to smash into his own heart.

"Relying on external resources?"

Fang Qingbai quickly noticed the strangeness of the hideous demonic armor.

This object was shrouded in a violent aura, and with the enhancement of this aura, this set of armor seemed to have exceeded the level that a magic weapon should have.

A hint of malice flashed across his face: "Let me see if the external things you rely on can compare to my immortal body."

Fighting bravely and fiercely?

As a dignified immortal, how could I possibly avoid a vile beast?

As they spoke, two fists slammed into each other's bodies almost simultaneously.

The rust marks on the ferocious demon armor seemed to come alive, resembling small snakes that constantly disintegrated and reformed under the immense power, actually swallowing the force whole.

On the other hand, Lao Niu's long robe was torn apart instantly, and the fist covered by black armor sank straight into his heart.

"puff!"

Fang Qingbai spat out blood and his body flew backward, his face turning ashen.

He clutched his chest tightly.

On that strong, beating heart, cracks have already appeared.

"Ancestor!"

The two descendants of the Fang family cried out in alarm, their voices trembling slightly.

In terms of strength, his ancestor was not the strongest in Shuangyun Prefecture, after all, there was still Jingzhe Immortal above him. But if we only compare physical strength, when had the other party ever fallen into such a predicament?

A moment later, a steady voice came from the sky.

"What's the rush? They're just relying on that set of armor."

"I was just looking for a good opportunity to exercise."

For wandering immortals, no magical treasure can compare to their immortal bodies.

Above the sky, the clouds and mist dissipated.

A towering figure, several meters tall, returned to everyone's sight.

It has the head of a bull and the body of a human, stands on two hooves, and has broad shoulders like small mountains. Its entire body is covered with long black hair, and its bull tail whips around with a series of tearing sounds.

The true form of the immortal!

He looked down and praised, "If you hadn't fallen into the demonic path, but instead joined my Fang family and became my disciple, then the two of us would be the two strongest body cultivators in Frost Cloud Prefecture."

"But now, I'm tired of it, it's time to end it."

Fang Qingbai stood on the clouds, looking down upon all living beings, and he truly had the air of an immortal.

"Esteemed seniors, I have contacted the Demon Lord of the Burning River and borrowed his demonic power. Quickly take control of the Blazing Fire Talisman!"

Yuexi was just overjoyed that the young demon lord had gained the upper hand, but before the joy could even reach her face, she saw the bull immortal, and an intense, suffocating sense of oppression rushed towards her.

With her level of cultivation, she simply couldn't control such abundant demonic power.

"I've come to deliver the talisman!"

The Azure Sea Demon Lord swept up the white jade with a flick of his sleeve and soared into the air.

"laugh."

Fang Qingbai only glanced at it briefly before looking away.

Since he said it's over, it means the matter has already been settled.

Didn't these people notice a problem?

That is, why is it called a three-hoofed bull when it clearly only has two legs?

"This is?!"

The Azure Sea Demon Lord had just taken off when he was sent flying by the shockwave.

At the same time, the sky suddenly turned dark.

A colossal, dark mountain appeared out of nowhere, abruptly obscuring everyone's view. Seemingly slow, yet incredibly swift, it pressed down upon the earth.

The beautiful woman stared wide-eyed and looked closely; this was no majestic Black Mountain at all.

It is clearly an enormous cow hoof.

Above it, there was a leg covered in black hair, as thick as a pillar.

"Stopping the heavens and shaking the earth!"

Fang Qingbai let out a long cry.

The dark bull's hoof crashed down towards the figure below!

"call."

Lin Shu raised her head slightly, but was quickly swallowed by the shadows.

Her once neatly styled hair was now wildly swirling in the air currents.

His eyes gradually turned scarlet as his surging blood and qi surged forth and reflected in his pupils.

The crimson color roared and coalesced into a colossal object sixteen feet tall.

Even with its outstretched arms, it still appeared incredibly small beneath the towering hooves of the bull.

But it showed no intention of giving way. Instead, in full view of everyone, it leaped up and suddenly swung its arm toward the sky.

Within this crimson substance, Lin Shu's body was repeatedly torn apart by immense force, and then rapidly repaired by the Azure Phoenix's magical power.

Not a single drop of the splattered blood was wasted; it all flowed into the red mist.

boom!

The crimson fist slammed into the center of the dark figure, its immense force overturning the dark mountain and causing the pillar above it to tilt backward.

Click—click—click!

The crimson waves surged like a great river, causing countless cracks to appear on the ox's hooves.

This immortal's divine power shattered and transformed into countless specks of light.

"My supernatural powers!"

Fang Qingbai stared blankly down below, his already turbulent emotions now unable to be contained.

He was a wandering immortal who specialized in cultivating his physical body, and the move he had just made was his most prized supernatural ability.

Now, someone has actually surpassed me in the art of body tempering without using any tricks.

How is this possible?!

The backlash from the loss of its supernatural power caused a metallic sweetness to seep from the old ox's throat and onto its lips, like a gurgling stream that quickly soaked the black fur on its upper body.

From within the crimson behemoth, a young man clad in ferocious demonic armor stepped out.

He looked up at the sky and said softly, "Actually, you are the only one who cultivates the body."

"What do you mean?" Fang Qingbai tried to swallow the blood back, his voice muffled. His most powerful technique had been broken so brutally, something that could not have been done with just a demon armor.

He felt a growing urge to retreat, and his hooves tensed subtly.

"...

""

Lin Shu snapped her fingers, answering the other party's question with her actions.

In an instant, billowing black flames poured out from his body and surged into the human world. A chillingly powerful aura enveloped the world at an extremely fast speed.

The black flames, like a rainbow, split into five streams, silently connecting heaven and earth.

"When?!"

Fang Qingbai suddenly turned around, his panic turning into fear.

Right there where the black flames met, five things had been suspended, blocking their escape route.

A precious jade, a golden bell, and a folding fan.

There was also a large silver net and a flying sword.

These five treasures all exuded a violent aura, and in terms of quality, none of them were inferior to the strange demonic armor worn by the opponent.

Such precious items, yet this scoundrel casually produced a whole bunch of them!

"cut."

Lin Shu uttered the word indifferently.

Before leaving Anren Prefecture, he specially selected four top-grade magic treasures that were both offensive and defensive from his hard-earned collection, and tempered them all with karmic fire and gold essence.

In addition, the original Divine Jade should also be added.

With these things by your side, who would consider you a body cultivator?

The black flame dragon danced wildly, its magical power surging into the five pseudo-spiritual treasures.

The crimson divine blade roared forth.

The golden bell swelled in the wind, emitting a radiant light that enveloped Fang Qingbai from above. A large silver net instantly wrapped around his body, and the flying sword and folding fan transformed into fierce beams of light, hurtling away from both sides!

puff!puff!

Fang Qingbai roared and struggled desperately, but having just suffered a severe injury, he had no strength left to break free from the control of these treasures.

That tall and strong body, in the blink of an eye, was turned into countless pieces by the sharp blades from all directions!
