Become a true immortal by emulating all demons.

Chapter 236 The Second Side of Walking in the World

"We're doomed."

As someone who experienced it firsthand, and having noticed the change in Cangli's expression, Su Xin quickly realized what had happened.

When the three of them ambushed Tao Guan earlier, Lin Shu rode in the Mountain God's Carriage and chased after Yu Qianzhang alone.

It wasn't a life-or-death struggle between two people, but a game involving three parties.

On one side are the venerable descendants of the Yu family who left Yongzhou long ago to learn martial arts in Hengshui, and on the other side is the eldest daughter of the Ning family with a mysterious identity and a terrifying background.

in this case----

Surprisingly, Lin Shu, who was visiting Da Shun for the first time, gained the upper hand, overpowered both of them, and took all the benefits!

Such a horrifying experience deeply shocked Su Xin, while also causing her to secretly lament her misfortune.

With such a past incident, and given Father's taciturn nature, how can he possibly win over the Ning family's daughter now?

Yuan Yuan stood silently in place.

He really did his best.

But after realizing that Ning Qingzhi was essentially a young girl who hadn't grown up yet, he couldn't utter a single word of what he already felt extremely ashamed of.

However, everyone knows that if Lin Shu's plan to resolve the matter of the Immortal Inspector was far-fetched, the chance of success was almost zero.

That Ning family girl was the one who was "almost there".

Without her, that prefix can be omitted, meaning there is absolutely no hope left.

If the Heavenly Demon Palace cannot be dragged into this mess, the Dragon Palace, if it were to get serious, could easily crush this newly emerging "rabble" in Yongzhou with just a single veteran dragon descendant.

Even someone as exceptionally talented as Lin Shu needs sufficient time to grow.

"This old servant greets Miss Ning."

Old He watched for a long time, but finally softened for a moment.

He himself had no interest in playing along with this group of idle demon kings; it was really not very meaningful.

But then again, after Luo Fengge broke his vow, it's absurd and laughable that these pawns, who were once used by the young master, have become the last team willing to fulfill his last wish.

Young master, now that you have passed away...

They probably wouldn't mind taking the blame for these demon kings again.

To resolve Ning Qingzhi's resentment, the only option is to shift all the blame onto Luo Fengming, using the excuse that "everyone is gone" to temporarily put an end to the feud.

"call!"

Ning Qingzhi let out a long breath, her eyes still fixed on the distance.

Even her closest maid didn't know why her mistress had lost her composure like this.

Dongling's scream just now was more out of surprise.

There wasn't actually much genuine anger.

After all, neither of them took the matter too seriously at the time; at most, they just wanted Lin Shu to apologize. Besides, it seems that it was the other party who saved their lives with this group of people.

"Senior Yuan Yuan is very powerful, but it's difficult for him to protect the safety of so many of us. Let's leave now."

Now that she had been recognized, Lin Shu was too lazy to hide anymore.

He approached without changing his expression, as if he didn't know the two women at all.

"Yes, we'll talk about it outside."

Su Xin quickly picked up the conversation, cupping her hands and saying, "Please clear the way for us, senior."

'

Yuan Yuan tapped his chin slightly and waved his hand, unleashing another wave of blood to tear apart the remaining cold current in front of him.

He was originally the great demon king of Yongzhou.

With Lin Shu leading the way and deliberately highlighting him, his silence made him appear even more dignified and domineering.

Dongling lowered her eyes and reached out to touch her injured forearm.

When the man threw her back just now, his imposing figure gave her a great sense of security.

On the other hand, that handsome but cunning thief was incredibly fierce when facing his own people.

Now that they've arrived on the territory of the Cold Mountain Ghost King, the latter not only refused to contribute anything from beginning to end, but also secretly took away the corpses of several immortal descendants, and is now quietly hiding in the back—it's incredibly mercenary.

"Okay, let's leave now."

Ning Qingzhi finally managed to look away.

As she followed, she couldn't help but purse her lips slightly, revealing a relaxed smile.

If this is a carefully planned blind date.

There would never be another person in that arena who had offended her.

It turns out I was just lucky to be alive.

I wonder where these idle demon kings came from, their connections are so deep, they can even invite underworld immortals to help them.

After thinking it over, she patted her chest with a hint of lingering fear.

Never mind, as long as she can leave Hanshan alive, it will be very easy for her, as the eldest daughter of the Ning family, to repay these benefactors.

Boom! Boom!

Just as the group transformed into a rainbow and prepared to leave...

The cold current that Yuan Yuan had just casually torn apart suddenly erupted with a series of roars. Not only did it regroup in the blink of an eye, but it also came back with a fierce momentum, several times stronger than before!

Yuan Yuan's vital energy was forcibly extinguished, and his arms were covered with a layer of frost. His skin cracked quietly, like parched sand, and his flesh turned into a dehydrated grayish-brown.

His face turned grim.

Upon seeing this change, Su Xin and Cang Li froze on the spot.

Old He also inwardly cried out in alarm.

He didn't know what method these demon kings had used to deceive the ghost king.

But it was clear that the half-immortal had already reacted and was chasing after them in a fit of extreme rage.

Something big is about to happen!

"Ha!"

Yuan Yuan clenched his fists, his face contorted in pain, and shook off the frost on his arms.

He glanced at Lin Shu.

The two might recreate their experience in Anren Prefecture during the Da Shun era.

However, compared to the Night Wanderer who was possessed by Young Master Qi at the time, the Cold Mountain Ghost King was obviously more senior, and his strength was very likely to be a whole level higher!

Even Yuan Yuan felt somewhat uncertain.

"Could it be that the immortal has been defeated?"

Ning Qingzhi swallowed hard; she could almost hear the roar emanating from the white mist, and the image of that ape was reflected again in her pupils.

A red tongue.

She instinctively grabbed Dongling, fearing that the Ghost King would take her away.

Just like before, he inexplicably fell into that dark and terrifying underworld.

Facing Yuan Yuan's gaze, Lin Shu slowly turned her body to look at the swirling white mist, her eyes instantly turning cold.

After a moment, he rubbed his wrist and said calmly, "I'll go first; I still have some things to take care of."

As soon as he finished speaking, the expressions on the faces of the others changed.

Yuan Yuan and his daughter Su Xin both knew about the powerful methods of the Moon Devouring Demon King, but this was, after all, Cold Mountain, the territory of that Ghost King.

If it were that easy to deal with, Lin Shu wouldn't have chosen to save people first.

As for the powerful demons like Cangli and Lao He, who had never witnessed the events in Yongzhou, they didn't even quite understand the meaning of those words.

They could understand that someone might possess profound and mysterious methods that could temporarily deceive the immortals, but they never imagined that a great demon would dare to confront the Yin Marshal directly!

Could it be that Yuan Yuan's past experiences haven't taught the demons of Yongzhou the principle that the might of immortals cannot be trifled with?!

Unfortunately, Lin Shu didn't explain much of what she meant.

The moment he released his wrist, his entire figure quietly disappeared into the white mist that resembled a blizzard, leaving everyone with only a hazy, remaining silhouette.

"Miss?"

While Dongling was in a daze, she suddenly realized that something was wrong.

She suddenly turned her head to look.

The young lady stared wide-eyed at the gradually disappearing figure, then instinctively released her grip and leaped up to chase after the white mist.

"It's you—wait for me!"

Both their tone of voice and the way they glanced at each other seemed identical.

Upon seeing the silhouette of the mist, Ning Qingzhi instantly made a comparison in her mind.

This young man, who was involved in shady dealings in Tongzhou, was none other than the "immortal" who had so casually grasped the Ghost King's chains just now!

The actions of this legitimate daughter of the Ning family clearly terrified everyone.

Old He quickly subdued the other person, his face pale with fear, and said, "Miss Ning, please don't do anything reckless!"

If the Ghost King were to come to the mortal realm, he would still have some influence over it.

In the underworld, tsk!

In Lao He's eyes, Lin Shu's initiative to greet him was utterly impulsive and reckless. Unfortunately, she moved too quickly, and he couldn't stop her in time. How could he dare to let Ning Qingzhi follow her now?

"Let me go, I can fight!"

"I brought a lot—"

Ning Qingzhi stopped struggling and watched helplessly as the surrounding white mist dissipated completely.

The cold front had entered the underworld, and Lin Shu's figure disappeared into it.

She still didn't have time to give away those protective treasures.

Perhaps some people can travel between the living and the dead, but they certainly don't have that ability.

"It's all unnecessary trouble."

Cangli was uneasy, but due to her habit of being sarcastic, she couldn't help but mutter a few complaints in her heart.

Why make Yuan Yuan suffer so much?

Before Lin Yaoye could even say two words, Miss Ning's heart was already completely captivated by him.

As long as the other party can return safely.

Cangli was certain that this stunningly beautiful young woman would not be able to escape anytime soon.

But can he really come back?

"You actually dare to come back?"

"You're not actually a half-immortal from my Underworld?!"

On the path shrouded in gray mist, a giant humanoid python draped in black robes stood with its hands hanging down.

He stared at the young man in the distance, surprise appearing in his gleaming eyes.

Based on the methods the other party had previously displayed, the Ghost King of Cold Mountain had roughly guessed the person's identity; he was probably a Night Wanderer who specialized in escorting ghosts.

What I do can easily attract the attention of these beings.

No wonder this person was able to arrive so quickly; he must have had his eye on Hanshan for a long time.

The Ghost King was not afraid because He was certain that the Night Wanderer had received benefits from the Heavenly Demon Palace. Both of them had done shady things, and the rest would depend on their own abilities.

He truly hadn't expected the other party to be a monk.

A mere mortal Qi cultivator, whose cultivation and learning are all bestowed by immortals, and who bears the mark of an immortal sect—how dare such a lowly creature, as lowly as a pig or a dog, even inferior to a demon cultivator, interfere in the affairs of a half-life immortal?!

Thinking of this, the anger in the heart of the Cold Mountain Ghost King actually subsided.

Immortals are colleagues, meaning they are of equal rank.

But cultivators are nothing more than servants kept by the immortal sects; who would get truly angry at a servant?

"You dare to imitate the authority of the underworld."

"Don't you think you're a little clever?"

The Ghost King smiled cruelly, a hint of mockery and pity for the foolish creature flickering in his eyes.

As the chill around her intensified, Lin Shu's expression gradually became serious.

The Ghost King's meaning is quite clear.

He was caught off guard and somewhat guilty, so he was seized by someone who had his genitals chained, and suffered a great loss in the power struggle.

Now, this half-immortal wants to prove, in the same way, just how ridiculous and laughable these imitative mortal tricks really are.

"call."

Lin Shu closed her eyes.

In an instant, the surrounding yin energy began to twist and distort, and the chains hidden within danced wildly.

The two figures faced each other from a distance, neither making a move.

However, the real battle had already begun!

The Ghost King wanted to regain his face, but for Lin Shu, this was also the first time he had faced a half-life immortal in the late Nascent Soul stage. He could use this opportunity to verify the level of his current strength.

Time passed slowly.

The yin energy and white mist ceased their turbulence; they swirled and howled, releasing a chilling aura.

The two chains ceased their struggle and coiled up like venomous snakes, one end raised high, looking down at the young man below.

Lin Shu opened her eyes, her face slightly pale.

The Soul Splitting Thousand Threads technique was completed after the Battle of Anren Prefecture, granting the user the ability to freely travel between Yin and Yang, and to be completely unaffected by Yin energy.

You could even challenge real underworld officials to a duel.

For ordinary cultivators, this is a method they have always dreamed of, giving them enough power to protect themselves even in the underworld.

However, it's still too much of a stretch to think that this supernatural power could allow one to defeat a true deputy commander of the underworld in a power struggle.

"Hehehehaha!"

From the shadows, the Cold Mountain Ghost King strolled out calmly, his laughter sinister and piercing.

He was clearly very satisfied with the result.

The divine status recognized by Heaven and Earth cannot be compared to something achieved through mere cleverness.

"Immortals are immortals, and cultivators are cultivators. Recognize your own place."

The Cold Mountain Ghost King casually raised his arms, a smirk playing on his lips, his eyes flashing with a fierce light: "Now, you take another one..."

"I'll give it a try."

This person has only just broken through to the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm, and his cultivation level is still somewhat unstable.

After losing that strange method, she couldn't even compare to the Ning family's little girl from before; at least that woman had a decent treasure from the mountains and seas for self-defense.

Splash!

The two chains intertwined and grew thicker and thicker.

"Call it!"

The Ghost King's face suddenly turned cold, and he let out a low roar.

As he spoke, the chains suddenly shot out with terrifying force, heading straight for the young man's face.

It was as if they wanted to blast the other person's soul, along with their physical body, into dust!

'

Lin Shu's black robes fluttered wildly, her hair swirling in disarray.

His previous defeat had rendered him unable to continue controlling the power of the underworld.

But just as the Ghost King said.

He was a monk.

This means that the Qi family's supernatural abilities are just one of Lin Shu's many skills; he has not yet begun to use his true cultivation level.

Within the young man's slender frame, a figure slowly rose to his feet.

The powerful spiritual energy surged forth in an instant, only to be shattered by the dark iron chains that attacked.

The Ghost King's judgment was not too wrong.

With the cultivation level Lin Shu displayed, he was no match for him at all.

Unfortunately, what is revealed may not be the truth.

As the demon infant stood up completely, white light began to surge around its body, and its entire form began to change.

This change also affected Lin Shu.

Click!Click!

Lin Shu's face grew increasingly pale, so pale that it was completely bloodless and even began to glow!

His figure suddenly grew more than ten feet taller, his arms stretched out, and his five fingers transformed into sharp, long claws with a cracking sound, the nails alone being half a foot long.

Xuan Chang was torn apart by the force of the energy, revealing her body that shimmered with white light.

Strands of crimson-gold magma flowed across his body, spreading to his neck; these were obscure Dao patterns.

boom!!

Lin Shu's feet left the ground, and her whole body was suspended in mid-air.

The immense spiritual power transformed into flawless wings, each about three zhang wide, which unfurled behind him, with crimson-gold patterns climbing up like vines.

By this moment, he no longer resembled a human; he looked more like a humanoid creature covered in phoenix-like features.

It's like the sun high in the sky!

A crimson-golden white light swept out, dissolving the white mist that filled the sky and making the underworld clearly visible.

I am both real and fake!

This is the other side of the Phoenix Changing the Sun Divine Skill when it travels through the world.

when!

Lin Shu indifferently extended his palm, his sharp five fingers loosely clenched.

The imposing chain seemed to suddenly lose its strength, and obediently hovered in his palm.

The moment the fingertips pinched down, the entire chain suddenly began to vibrate, and cracks began to appear on its surface.

"Caught it, and then what?"

Lin Shu stood in mid-air, looking down, and loosened her five fingers again.

Pieces of dull iron scraps clattered and fell to the ground.

Each piece of broken iron that fell to the ground seemed to strike the heart of the Cold Mountain Ghost King, causing his body beneath his wide black robe to tremble slightly.

The Ghost King could hardly believe that he would one day witness such a monster with his own eyes.

A monster capable of crushing Yin Judgment artifacts with its bare hands!!
