Honghuang: It makes sense that there are four Sanqing, right?

"Buzzing..."

Actually, it wasn't really a matter of finding her; Xu Qing was drawn there by her loud voice.

"With a voice as loud as thunder, a mouth as thin as a needle, blood-red wings, and a black body, you must be the ferocious beast Bloodwing Black Mosquito."

He patted the red lotus and flew to the source of the sound in the blink of an eye. After seeing clearly, he spoke.

Upon hearing this, the mosquito turned around, revealing a small wolf-shaped beast with the strength of a Taiyi Golden Immortal stuck in its proboscis.

Upon seeing the twelfth-grade karmic fire lotus beneath Xu Qing's feet, they sensed his unfathomable and terrifying aura.

She quickly sucked the little beast dry, and then transformed into a Taoist priest in blood-red robes, adorned with Taoist decorations, with exaggerated chest muscles and a flat throat—she was actually a female mosquito.

"That's true, it's all the female mosquitoes that come out to suck blood."

After thinking about how this person had absorbed the twelve-petaled Golden Lotus of Merit until only nine petals remained, Xu Qing felt that it was quite reasonable for her to be a female mosquito.

"Senior, what can I do for you?"

The Taoist priest, who was actually a black mosquito with blood wings, stood trembling to the side and finally couldn't help but ask a question.

"Asura race, you see that now."

"Yes, I saw it, senior."

"Their strength is still low, and there are many ferocious beasts in the Blood Sea. I have other important matters to attend to. Would you be willing to protect them?"

Upon hearing this, the Bloodwing Black Mosquito's eyes flashed with reluctance. If it became a protector, it would no longer be able to roam freely in the vast Blood Sea. How could it compare to its current freedom?

He immediately regretted it; why did he have to hunt for food at this moment of all times? His innate supernatural power was blazing, attracting such a menacing star. Yet, he still lowered his head and said earnestly:

"Thank you for your guidance, senior. I am willing to accept it."

Xu Qing smiled. He didn't know the man's mindset perfectly, but he could guess it pretty accurately.

Since she was the one doing the work for her, Xu Qing thought it was necessary to give her some reward.

With a thought, a flash of blue light appeared in his hand, and a blue banana leaf appeared in Xu Qing's palm.

It was the Yin Banana Leaf, which he obtained from shattering half of the Kunpeng's body during the battle thousands of miles away from Buzhou Mountain, that he had now completely refined.

The moment the banana leaf appeared in Xu Qing's hand, the blood within three inches around it froze, and the blood-winged black mosquitoes also felt the biting cold.

"I know you are unwilling. Let's look at the conditions first. If you are not willing, I will find someone else."

This item is called the Yin Banana Leaf Fan. It can freeze the sea of ​​blood, allowing people to escape. It is of the highest quality in this place.

This banana leaf fan is for your use during your time as a protector of the Asuras. With it in hand, you can settle any scores and grievances during this period, which should make things much easier.

Since this item is still my treasure, any karmic retribution will fall on me. Consider this your reward for helping me. Now, are you willing?

The blood-winged black mosquito's red pupils burst with surprise.

In the primordial world, those quasi-saints and powerful beings always summoned and dismissed these ferocious beasts of the Great Luo Dynasty at will. Even if they died because of these people, they could only accept their bad luck, and their corpses might even be refined into magical treasures.

She was prepared to toil for millions of years for nothing, only hoping that the Asura race could soon produce a Great Luo, at which point she would be freed.

Unexpectedly, Xu Qing was so generous, lending her a top-grade innate spiritual treasure without hesitation. With this, wouldn't she be able to run rampant in the Blood Sea?

Moreover, if she disagrees and Xu Qing finds someone else, she will become the target of resentment and revenge, which is absolutely unacceptable.

She spoke quickly, this time with much more sincerity and urgency.

"Thank you for bestowing this treasure upon me, senior. I am willing, I am willing. From this day forward, the Asura clan will be my brothers!"

"Good. Your true form is a blood-winged black mosquito, and after transforming, you are dressed as a Taoist. I will call you Mosquito Taoist. What do you think?"

"The Mosquito Taoist thanks Senior for bestowing upon him this name."

Mosquito Taoist bowed deeply, and a flash of seven-colored light appeared on his body. Although he had not broken through, his strength had increased by a few points.

"good."

Xu Qing nodded and led Mosquito Daoist toward the core of the Blood Sea, where the Asuras were still waiting.

Before long, Xu Qing spotted the Asuras in the distance. In the sea of ​​blood, the Asuras were not worried about food; otherwise, they would probably have starved to death after three years.

Due to the previous great battle, no ferocious beasts have been willing to approach the core of the Blood Sea. In the past three years, the number of Asuras has only increased and has now reached more than 150,000.

The Yakshas and Rakshasas managed the Asuras very well, and apart from being a little bored, the Asuras lived a peaceful and prosperous life in this place.

"Ancestor, you've arrived."

Upon seeing that crimson figure in the distance, Yaksha and Rakshasa immediately dropped what they were doing and rushed over to greet Xu Qing, kneeling on one knee with their heads bowed.

"This is Mosquito Daoist. Your strength is still too weak, so she is the protector I have chosen for you."

Xu Qing raised his hand and pointed at Mosquito Taoist.

"We pay our respects to Senior Mosquito."

Rakshasa and Yaksha stood up together, and then bowed to Mosquito Taoist.

"Get up, no need for formalities."

Mosquito Taoist quickly helped the two up, his face beaming with smiles, not daring to be the slightest bit presumptuous.

In fact, the Asura race was created by Xu Qing using the essence of the Blood Sea, and Mosquito Daoist was also born from the Blood Sea.

It could be said that the Asura race was a natural delicacy for her, extremely tempting, but at this moment she didn't even dare to swallow a drop of saliva, for fear that Xu Qing would notice.

Xu Qing gently tapped the lotus platform with his finger, and the three people who were exchanging pleasantries immediately fell silent, lowered their heads, and stood in a row in front of the red lotus, with Mosquito Daoist taking a half step forward.

"This is Mosquito Taoist. Until you are able to protect yourselves, she will help you defend against the ferocious beasts."

From this moment on, you may leave the core of the Blood Sea. The specifics of the Asura race's expansion will be decided jointly by the Yakshas and Rakshasa.

Upon hearing this, all the Asuras knelt on one knee, bowed their heads, and said in unison, "We will obey the Ancestor's decree."

Xu Qing nodded slightly and then said.

"I have other important matters to attend to and cannot stay any longer. You will have to adapt to the situation and act independently from now on."

"Yes."

Xu Qing gave a few more instructions and then left alone. In order to restore the earth veins, he still needed to open up the connection between the western earth veins and the Blood Sea.

Take out the Earth Book. In its normal state, the Earth Book is a yellowish-brown leather book with two ancient and vigorous Taoist characters printed on the first page—Earth Book.

Xu Qing made a hand seal, and the next moment, the previously dim and dull second page of the Earth Book lit up with yellowish-brown patterns.

The Taoist charm flows, profound and mysterious, beyond words; and there are annotations written in Taoist script around the patterns.

Following the guidance of the Book of Earth, Xu Qing sat on the red lotus and headed towards a certain place in the Sea of ​​Blood.

It was a hole blocked by a dark red filth. After the Western ley lines were destroyed, the originally stable cycle between the Western world and the Sea of ​​Blood was broken.

The filth that should have been orderly discharged into the sea of ​​blood ran rampant in the underground world, with some of it carrying demonic energy to the place where it connected with the sea of ​​blood.

The combination of demonic energy, filth, blood, and bloodlust forms a barrier that blocks this place, further disrupting the cycle. This cycle repeats itself, accumulating more and more pollution.

Since the conflict between the Dao and the Demon, and Rahu's self-destruction, the defilements here have accumulated to an unimaginable degree over countless years.
